Chapter 15
Mikey's P.O.V.
I don't remember my childhood anymore. I know as you grow older you lose younger memories, but this felt different. I don't remember how old I am. I could ask my brothers Sandir and Saltar but that would be awkward not remembering. Those intruders they feel close to me but just more people to hate. Like Salif.
I don't remember what happened but Salif did something to me a while back to make me hate him. I just continue to go with it and don't bother asking why I don't remember anything.
I opened my eyes to meet my brother Sandir above me. I slowly sat up with a groan and saw Saltar standing at the edge of the sand bed.
"You two are lucky my brother is ok." Sandir snapped and I turned my head to see two of the three intruders at the side of the bed.
"They didn't do anything." I said keeping my eyes locked on the one in the blue. He smiled and I gave him a death glare. "He tried to stop you from taking the other person- I mean turtle away but I stopped him."
Sandir's eyes widened, "How did you stop him?" he asked and I leaned back on the sand pillows. I closed my eyes and I didn't answer for a bit.
"I want them out." I said and pointed to the intruders at my left without opening my eyes. I opened my eyes and saw Saltar grab the two by the arm and they continued to stare at me, shocked. Saltar dragged them to a sand opening and it shut behind them.
I lowered my head avoiding Sandir's glares, "I don't know." I exhaled annoyed, "I grabbed his wrist and it was like he froze in place." I could tell Sandir was shocked.
"Don't worry little brother. You are developing your powers. You have powers stronger than mine, Saltar and even Salif. I will help you control your power better and we can test on the intruders if you wish."
"I would like that." I said simply and smiled. Then thought about who you intruders were in the first place. I would like to identify them without saying intruder or intruders all the time. "I want to go see them alone."
Donnie's P.O.V.
I while ago I was thrown into a cell like room. My wrists were chained above my head and on my knees my ankles were chained to the wall. This position was killing my arms, but nothing could be done about that. I sighed. The room was probably a bit bigger then the size of my room. I hope help was on the way.
I closed my eyes and was in my thoughts. I dropped my head. What will happen if we return home without Mikey? A tear escaped my right eye. I must have been in pretty deep thoughts making me look asleep. I hear a sound of shifting sand and didn't bother looking. I continued to look asleep in thoughts.
Minutes later a heard the sound of shifting sand again and with curiosity over coming me I opened my eyes and noticed the sand under my wet from tears. I raised my head slowly and the pain from my arms came back. Was I in meditation? I heard chains jiggle to my side. I didn't move so it wasn't my chains. I turned my head to my right and saw Leo and Raph chained the way I was. They had their eyes on me already.
"When did you guys get here?" I asked and Leo raised a brow.
"You didn't hear us being brought in? We were shouting your name too." Leo explained and I showed a confused look.
"I didn't hear anything except the sound of shifting sand." I said and Raph's jaw dropped. I heard Leo started to groan and I turned my body towards them a bit. "What's wrong Leo?"
"He chained my arm up...It hurts." Leo said and I looked up to his arm. It was now swollen at the elbow. It was silence while Leo closed his eyes in pain.
"I was worried when we came in and saw you chained up, silent and not moving. I thought they did something to you." Raph said.
Mikey's P.O.V.
Sandir agreed on letting me go see the turtles under one circumstance, I don't believe their lies. I agreed as well and Saltar come in second later explaining that the intruders were all chained in the same room now. I smiled at that.
"Brother if you want to go see them I want to teach you how to open the sand openings." Sandir said and I nodded. I also had another reason to see these turtles. First they were turtles like me for some reason and I felt like I needed to see them. Suddenly my back start to ache and I gasped in pain.
"Owww!" I started to arch my back on the bed and Saltar and Sandir stared in confusion and worry. "My back!"
"Brother what is wrong?!" I heard Saltar asked in fear and sounded like he was pleased for some reason.
"M-My back hurts! L-Like someone is stabbing me!" I said the best I could without breaking into shouts. Slowly I felt the pain die down. I dropped back on the bed and closed my eyes. I panted regaining my breath from the painful back ache.
"Remind me to check your back later." Sandir said and I nodded opening my eyes again. I caught a quick look of Saltar smiling and he quickly changed it to a faked frown. I took note of that in my head and sat up.
"Can I see the intruders now?" I asked and inside me it felt wrong to call them intruders. Sandir then turned to Saltar and slowly nodded. Sandir turned to me,
"Yes. I will take you but first I want to teach you how to open the sand door ways." Sandir reminded me and I stood up. Sandir walked to the wall where the sand door was. I followed him and noticed Saltar sit on my bed and wait. "Ok first you put your hand on the sand wall.."
Sandir put his hand on the wall and removed it, I put my hand where his hand was and turned my head to him as a ready.
"Ok now I want you to focus and what you want to do and then is open that door. Everyone here has something different in their head they repeat to open the door. In my head I repeat open. Saltar what do you say in your head to open the door?" Sandir asked turning to face Saltar and I turned my head to see him was his arms folded.
"I repeat open you damn door." Saltar said with a smirk on his face. Sandir looked nervous.
"Ok I guess that is one way to do it." Sandir said turning his attention back to me. "First put your hand on the wall, second in your head say what your goal is then what ever you think well help you open the door."
"Okay." I said and closed my eyes and focused on opening the door and then said in my head 'Power'. Then to my surprise the door opened. I walked through and so did Sandir.
"Wow that never works first try! What did you repeat?" Sandir asked and I smiled at my success.
"I repeated the word power." I said and Sandir tilted his head.
"Weird normally it has to be about what you want to do. Your power is strong." Sandir said and I smiled. Sandir walked down the hallway and stopped at one part of the wall and pointed at one spot. "Here is the door."
"Thank you. I'll see you in a bit." I said and Sandir walked back to my room. I waited for him to be out of view and put my hand on the door. The door opened and I walked in. I saw the three look at my in awe, maybe because I opened the door and not my brothers. The door closed and I stood infront of the three. "Before you three say anything I have to talk."
The three gave each other glances and I ignored it. I turned to my left not facing them and got on my knees. I put my hand on the sand and I was going to attempt to make a sand chair. I had my goal and said the same word then and pulled my hand up and sand followed. A chair was created and I took a seat and saw all three of them had shocked expressions. The chair was facing them so no need to turn my head.
"What?" I said like practicing my power was nothing.
"Y-you just made a chair...out of sand." The one in red said out of surprise.
"So? I have power just like my brothers and I can use it if I wish." I said and noticed the one in blue shivered went I said that. "I came to learn names and something felt...different when I was around you three. I want answers."
"I surprised you don't remember..." The one in red said. "I'm Raphael. They call me Raph." He said nudging his head towards the to to his left. I turned my head to the one in blue. He had is head down and eyes closed.
"What is wrong with him?" I said keeping a stray face.
"His arm is broken and it hurts when his arm is up." The one in purple explained and I turned my head to him. "I am Donatello. Call me Donnie or Don."
I stood up and walked to the one in blue and kneeled in front of him. I didn't like the three but I didn't want to see them in pain. "What is your name?" I asked and he brought his head up a bit.
"Leonardo...They call me Leo." I said quietly and dropped his head again. I stood up and grabbed the chains attached to his right arm. I knew his right was the broken one because it the swollen like two grapefruits at the elbow. I unchained his right arm and sat back in my chair. "Thank you."
He brought his arm to his chest and had his head up now. I felt weird doing that. I would have to talk to Saltar to arrange the chains different.
"How did you do that? You didn't have a key." The one name Raphael said in confusion.
"The chaining unit is activated by Saltar, Sandir and my power. We removed Salif from it." I explained. I then crossed my legs on the chair. "I have a strange feeling when I am around you three. I just...wanted to know why."
It was silent, maybe they didn't know. Maybe they were just random strangers. I sighed, "I don't remember my childhood, my past, just the present day. It feels so wrong...I don't even know why I am saying this to you three."
I rested my elbows on my knees and my fists on my chin. I looked at the ground. I thought about how Saltar smiled at my pain. How I was just now learning how to use my powers. Something wasn't right.
"Mikey, you don't remember because hours ago you drowned and Salif revived you. You don't remember because his power is evil and it messed with your mind." Leonardo said and I raised my head slowly. "Mikey...were your brothers."
When he said then I stood up and my chair disappeared. I crossed my arms and stared him in the eyes.
"Sandir told my not to believe your lies! Now I know why! Your trying to make me turn on my brothers and help you escape!" I shouted in anger. Before they could say more I stomped to the door and put my hand on it. I did everything I was supposed to do but for some reason the didn't open. I kicked the sand wall and started to pant in anger. "SANDIR YOU JERK!"
I fell backward landing on the sand and put my hands over my face. 'This can't be happening..this can't be happening.'
"Your welcome to stay." Donatello said and I exhaled with no choose.
Saltar's P.O.V.
This was just to prefect. The brat was in pain and I hatched an idea. I smiled at the plan and as they left I went over it again and again. When Sandir enter he stood into front of me and looked angry.
"Open you damn door?! Are you serious! I was teaching the kid something! You should have said something else, idiot!" Sandir snapped.
"What was I supposed to lie?" I said sarcasticly.
"That is what we have been doing for awhile now!" Sandir said.
"Before you go all phycho on me I figured out something. Remember he still has the coin. His back hurted and he didn't know why. It was probably the coin." I explained and Sandir nodded understanding.
"But if we take it from him, his power will drain and he will be back to normal." Sandir said. "The coin had a reaction in the water and Salif finally getting his power the coin turned evil and it is in the kids heart."
"If we have it things will be easier to take over." I said and Sandir sat next to me on the bed.
"What do we do with Salif?" Sandir asked.
"We make him pay."
Hey everyone! I feel so bad I didn't update in a while. So I typed this up and didn't proof read it because I want to make sure you guys knew I was back on track. The last week of school was Finals and I was exhausted is first day was a break day for me. But then I got sick for two weeks and didn't touch my computer during the time period not to spread the germ but it hit the whole family anyway. When I was no longer sick I made my first one shot of Ninjago. So I am so very sorry about the gap in updating and I am now feeling well. And I going to update one of my stories a day. Well I am going to try my best to. Lets do this thing! Peace for now!
