The Behind The Glass
It would be so nice if something made sense for a change.
Day 1. 05:12 PM.
Mikey opened his eyes slowly. His back hurting, he was dropped on the floor. All he saw was white. A strong headache hit his head. He felt dizzy. Where was he? He moved his hand slowly and he tried to reach his belt. No belt. That meant, no weapons. He lied on the floor for some seconds before gaining some strength to sit up. He saw three white walls and a fourth wall that was a mirror. He saw his brothers lying down on the floor too. Thanks god he wasn't alone. He felt a small relief.
Mikey walked to the mirror. He saw himself. He had no knee pads, no belt, no weapons, no anything. The only thing he had was his bandana. Same as his brothers. His eyes were red and his skin was pale. Anyway, he felt a bit better now. The headache had reduced and he was felling less dizzy.
He didn't knew what to do. He just stood there and watch, waiting for his brothers to wake up. He had no idea where he was or what was he doing there. If he screamed for help, probably no one would listen, or they just wouldn't help them. He had nothing to break the mirror with and even tho he did, probably he would just find another wall in the other side. Suddenly, he realized that there was a door. He hadn't spotted that before because it was the same white as the walls and it had nothing to open it from the inside.
Mikey stood up with many efforts and headed to the door. He was about to try to open it, when he heard one of his brothers moved. Someone else was waking up. It was Leo.
Mikey went to his side.
"Leo, are you okay?" He asked in a low voice. He knew that Leo would probably wake up with a headache as strong as his and that noise would upset him.
"Where are we? I feel terrible." He managed to say.
"I don't know bro, but the headache, the dizziness and the nausea will go away in a few minutes."
"I don't care about that. Are you alright?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. The other ones haven't woke up."
"Can you help me to stand up?"
"Sure."
Mikey did as told to. Once that Leo was on his feet, he started to look around.
"What the hell is this?"
"I don't know man, I'm not Donnie, but…"
Another sound of someone moving. This time, it was Raph.
"Shit…" Was the only thing he said.
"Raph, are you alright?" Leo asked, as he approached to his brother.
"Oh, hell I'm not…" He said as he grabbed his head in pain.
"Relax Raph, the pain will go away soon." Leonardo responded.
"Relax?" Raph talked in a higher tone. "How do you want me to relax Leo?! Where in fucktopia are we?!"
"Raph, lower your voice! Someone could hear us! And stop using bad words!"
"Are you serious Leo?! We are stuck on a white room with no explanation and all that you care about is my language?! Let me remind you something, you idiot, the reason we are here, it's because you decided that getting humiliated by Shredder was a better option than me killing him for good that night!"
"That wasn't going to work, Raph!"
"Oh, and I assume that you throwing my Sai to the floor was a smarter choice!"
"It was an accident!"
"You were the one that said that no mistakes could be made and guess who was the one making the biggest mistake ever!"
"Shut up! Both of you!" Mikey finally shouted. "I don't need you to start fighting each other! I need you to help me find a way out of here!"
"He is right Raph. We'll continue this argue in other moment."
"There is not continuing this argue Leo, I already won."
"Seriously Raph?"
"Guys, don't start this again." Mikey interrupted.
"Oh, for Pete's sake, can you guys shut it for a minute!" That came from Donnie. He was lying on the floor, covering his ears.
"Donnie, how long had you been awake?" Mikey ran to his side.
"I don't know. I just know that you guys had been shouting for a long time and that my head is going to explode if you don't be quiet for a while."
"I'm sorry Don." Leo apologized.
"Yeah, you should be apologizing to all of us for what you did back with Shredder." Raph, who was still sitting on the floor, entered to the conversation.
"Raph, I told you that we would keep talking about that later, at least do it for Donnie."
"I'm starting to fell a little bit better." He said as he tried to stood up. Mikey helped him. "Anyway… Where are we?"
"No idea, but what I was trying to say like half an hour ago is that I found something that might be a door." Mikey said as he pointed to the piece of wall that had a door's shape.
"Why didn't you told us about that before?" Leo asked.
"I guess you know the answer Leo." Mikey responded, definitely not amused.
Leo rolled his eyes and walked to what appeared to be the door. He tried pushing it. Didn't opened.
"Oh, leave it to me." Raph said as he stood up and ran to punch the door. No results.
Donnie hadn't moved. He was just standing in the middle of the room, analyzing.
"Guys, that is indeed a door, but it is not going to open up. These walls are builded up with a very strong material and that thing can just be opened from the outside. We are on a Gesell Chamber."
"Explain yourself Donnie." Raph suggested.
Donnie rolled his eyes. "Gessel Chambers are used to examine reactions of people. We are being watched. That thing, is not a mirror. There is people at the other side."
"Who?" Leo asked.
"Let me ask them Leo, because obviously I should know all of the answers!"
"Alright, calm down." Leo said.
"Get us out of here, you assholes! You saw our reactions! We don't know where we are! I'll introduce us…" Raph shouted to the glass.
"Raph, please don't start." Leo ordered.
"That one is the fearless leader, Leonardo, who also happen to be much of a dick, the one in purple is Donnie, who as you can see is the nerd one, the one in orange is Mikey, the little one and I'm Raph, pleasure to meet you, oh sorry, we haven't met because you are hiding behind a wall!" With that words, Raph hit the glass with anger.
"I'm sorry our brother is that angry, but he is a nice person in the inside. Can you please get us out of here so that we can know what is going on?" Mikey begged.
They stood there in silence. Nothing happened.
"Just face it you guys, maybe there is not even someone behind the glass." Leo spoke.
They all sat there for some minutes. It was really silent. Raph decided to sit up on a corner, while Mikey and Donnie just stood up in front of the glass. Leo was standing next to another wall, thinking what to do next.
Suddenly, the door opened up. Behind it, stood a male doctor with four bodyguards. The doctor was a white man with short black hair and brown eyes. He was a short man and he was carrying a pen and a notebook. The moment Raph saw that, he stood up and ran to attack, but one of the bodyguard received him with a really strong electric shock. Raph fell to the ground in pain.
"He deserved that." Donnie murmured.
"Okay, get out one by one and pass with the bodyguard so they can put handcuffs on you." The doctor ordered.
"What? We are not going anywhere till you tell us what is going on." Leo claimed.
"We'll explain on the way. Now, please follow the orders."
