A/N: Before we start the last 2 chapters, I sincerely apologise for the particularly LOOOOONNNNGGG delay. I was busy with school stuff and exams, so, I had to delay this. I am really, really sorry guys, and I hope the last 2 chapters will make up for it! So guys, thanks for understanding and stay tuned to my other stories! :)
TMNT belongs to me...in my world and imagination. *Pp started yelling* What? Of course TMNT does not belong to me, it belongs to its respective owners. Ok, enough with the A/N, let's do this! :D
A Few Hours Later
"Ok, guys, do we remember the plan?" "Yeah, Red." "Yes, April." "Alright, let's move!" April, Casey and Mikey moved into the building using stealth. They knew that the Shredder might expect them to come, so they waited. Mikey put the Night Guardian costume on. "Dude, why are you wearing that thing and that mask thingy? Is this some new thing that no one told me about?" "No, dude. It's just that...I think those mutants deserve some payback." "In that getup?" "Guys, enough! Oh, shhhhh, someone's coming!" They immediately hid on the edge that April had hid on to spy on the Foot once.
Rahzar and Fishface dragged the 2 turtles in. "Once I get out of this chains, I will flatten ya!" "I will give you guys something you will never forget!" "SILENCE!" The Shredder walked in. "Bradford, Xever, What is the meaning of this?" "Master Shredder, we figured that since the Night Guardian appears whenever the turtles are in trouble, we figured that capturing the turtles will attract him here." "So, am I correct in assuming that you have captured these turtles here as bait to eliminate the Night Guardian?" "Yes, Master Shredder." Fishface agreed in glee.
"Night Guardian?" April and Casey whispered. "They are...talking about me, dudes." "What? Why for? I mean...You are already some kind of vigilante." Casey said. "I...wanted to protect my bros, so I disguised myself as the Night Guardian. This explains the costume, dudes." The 2 immediately understood. April put a hand around Mikey's shoulder. "You did good, Mikey." "Yeah, dude, great job." "Thanks." Mikey smiled.
"Master Shredder, I smell...someone." Just then, the 3 rushed out of their hiding places. "Master Shredder, it's the turtles' friends! And the Night Guardian!" "Capture those humans at once." Foot Soldiers appear out of no where and grabbed Casey and April. "HEY!" "I will bash you dudes!" "SILENCE!" The protesting noises stopped. "So, it seems that the Night Guardian has decided to join us." The Shredder said slowly. "Who are you? When were you an ally of the turtles?" Mikey stayed silent, in fear of being recognised.
"ANSWER ME!" The Shredder shouted. Mikey stayed silent. Raph and Donnie cast worried looks on him. "Very well. Since you refuse to answer, you will meet your doom. Foot Soldiers! ATTACK!" Mikey dodged out of the way by jumping up and lashed his kusarigama chain at the Foot Soldiers. He threw a bunch of Foot Soldiers towards the rest of them. They were smashed within minutes. "GAH! I WILL FINISH YOU OFF MYSELF!" Mikey jumped up and used his bow and arrow to strike the Shredder in the leg. He narrowly missed.
The Shredder rushed towards him and lashed his claws at him. Mikey deflected it using his bow. "I see that you are a formidable warrior, Night Guardian. Join my clan, and I will make sure that you will be stronger than before." Mikey silently refused and threw him back at such a force, that even the Shredder was surprised. Mikey rushed forward and kicked him, but the Shredder managed to block the attack and slashed his leg with the claws. Mikey jumped back, holding his injured leg.
"Now, you shall reveal who you truly are." Mikey jumped back despite of the pain and using his kusarigama chain, managed to stab the Foot Soldiers. Casey hit Rahzar and the Shredder with hockey pucks. "GOONGALA!" As the 2 were stunned, Rahzar let go of Donnie. Donnie attacked Fishface with his feet, causing him to let go of Raph. The 2 managed to untangle their chains with the help of Mikey's kusarigama chain. Donnie looked at Mikey's injury worriedly. "Mikey, your leg..." "Don't worry, D. I'm fine." He whispered.
Mikey attacked the Shredder again. The Shredder dodged his many attacks and tossed him to the ground. "Say goodbye, Night Guardian!" "NO!" Raph kicked Fishface out of the way and, when the Shredder raised his gauntlet to strike, Raph protected Mikey and took the strike. "Raph!" Mikey was shocked. Donnie, April and Casey was also shocked. Casey was angry. "This is for slicing my friend, Tin-freak!" "ARGH! You will pay for this, boy!" The Shredder rushed towards Casey. Casey dodged in time for him to collide onto Fishface. Casey rushed to help April and Donnie to defeat Rahzar.
"Raph..." Mikey's eyes became glassy. Despite the pain, Raph took off Mikey's mask and wiped his tears. "Why, Raph, why would you..." "Because you are my baby brother, Mikey. I will die protecting you, if this is what it will take." "Raph...I..." "Don't cry, Mikey." He hugged his baby brother tightly. Blood was flowing from his mouth due to being stabbed. On the waist. "I love you, bro." He kissed Mikey on the forehead and hugged him again." "Raph, I...I love you too." Mikey's tears began to flow continuously.
"Well, well, well, it looks like the Night Guardian is Michelangelo all along." Rahzar saw the whole thing. "How nice it will be to finally crush you." "Oh no you don't!" Casey hit him with hockey pucks. "Guys, we better go! Raph and Mikey are injured!" The 3 nodded their heads. Donnie and Casey helped Mikey and an injured Raph up. Donnie quickly took out a smoke bomb and threw it. They disappeared within seconds. "This is not over, turtles!" Rahzar yelled.
Back At The Lair
Leo was growing worried. The guys were not back yet and it had been at least an hour. He wondered if something had happened to them. Just then, he heard footsteps. He was worried to see Mikey and Raph injured. "Guys, what happened?" "Raph got stabbed and Mikey was slashed on the leg." "WHAT!" "We will explain later, Leo. Now I need to set up the lab. We need to treat Raph's and Mikey's injuries first." Leo nodded before making his way slowly into the lab. Mikey worriedly held Raph's hand. Raph squeezed it tightly. "Don't worry, Mikey. I will be fine. By the way, I am proud of you, bro." He whispered. Mikey smiled.
