To recap on what happened on the last chapter, shredder attacked a store to get the attention of the turtles, while fighting, and Donatello got stabbed with a needle filled with a glowing yellow ooze.

This chapter is when Donatello is blind. Please, no flames.

And sorry for the delay, I got majorly sick and writers block, but I'm back. So without further ado, here is chapter 3 of 'I Can't See'.

Disclaimer: I do not own TMNT, but I wished I did


Black.

That's all Don could see.

His eyes were open, and it's black.

Where is the light?

'Didn't I leave my lamp on before I fell asleep because of my headache?' Donnie wondered after he finally got his bearings. 'Maybe it burnt out or Leo turned it off, knowing him'.

After thinking for a bit more of why the light wasn't on, he decided to get up and get some coffee, then look for his light bulbs.

Once he was finally able to stumble around his room because of all his gizmo's lying about, he was able to get to his door.

When he opened the door, he saw that the lair was also dark. 'Scratch what I thought before, the power must have gone down while we were sleeping, either that, or I have to fix the breaker box down the sewer pipe' Donnie thought trying to get to the table and stumbling around a bit.

"What's with the stumbling big bro" Mikey inquired after seeing Donnie trip once or twice.

"What do you mean 'What's with the stumbling big bro', it's dark in here." Don said, not even registering what Mikey said.

"Actually bro, all the lights are perfectly fine and on, what's with you?" Raph gruffed.

Then something clicked. "Wait you can see me and the lights are on? But I see absolutely nothing at the moment, not even my hand in front of my face." Don said, finally realizing the truth.

"The only explanation I can think of is that needle I was stabbed with, once I figure out what that stuff is. I will know what they did to me!" Donnie exclaimed.

"Only one flaw with that plan bro, you are the only one that can do this type of stuff, and you are the one that's blind." Raph stated bluntly.

"That's not entirely true, bro, remember we still have April. She may not be as good as me, and it may take a long time. But if I have to wait a year, 3 years, etc., then so be it. But I believe she can do this." Donnie declared.

"Then let's call April and inform her of what we need to be done." Leo finally spoke, once all of his younger bros stopped talking.


"You need me to do WHAT now!" April exclaimed.

"We need you to search up this mystery glowing yellow ooze. Once you figure out what it is, and find a cure for Donnie, we will grab the antidote, and be on are merrily way, knowing a bro will be perfectly fine." Leo replied coolly after re-explaining what she needed to do.

"But I can't do that, and even if I could, it could possibly take years to find out what it is, and a few more years to find the antidote. Then you will have to search far and wide for it, and it could quite possibly NOT BE ON OUR PLANET FOR ALL WE KNOW!" April cried out. "I can't put Donnie through that entire wait without his sight." She confessed.

"We know that April, and so does Donnie. But he's willing wait that long for you to do this for him. He's putting all his faith into you." Raph revealed, hoping that this will get April to help them.

"*huff* Fine, I will try my best, but just for the sake of Donnie." Replied April, finally giving in. "So where is this glowing yellow ooze you guys need me to look at."

"Here, this is all we could find, but it's better than nothing at all." Leo said while handing April the ooze.

CRASH!

At that exact moment, Donnie decided to get up without anybody knowing and trip over April's coffee table.

"Oww that hurt. It's going to take some time to get used to this new life style for now." Donnie moaned.

"Don't think like that bro. Think positively like me!" Exclaimed Mikey while helping Donnie get up.

"That's going to take a while for me bro. You know me, I'm the brains, not the family clown like you, or the aggressive type like Raph, and finally I don't have any leadership skills like Leo." Donnie confessed.

"That's not true. There was that time when you chased Mikey around the roof top pretending to still be that monster you turned into," Leo said. 'Then you got really mad at me when I broke one doohickey thing-a-ma-what-it," Mikey added. "And finally, you pulled us together when we lose hope in ourselves.' Raph put in. "So just be yourself and you will do perfectly fine." They all said at the exact same time.

"I hope you all are right." Donnie sighed.


"Master, we have good and bad news for you. The good news is that Donatello is out of the way, the bad thing is, he is still alive. One of the ninjas grabbed the wrong serum." Karai explained.

"WHAT, How Did This Happen, and if he is not dead, then what did happen to him?" The Shredder Inquired.

""You see, the two tubes were beside each other, one with a label and one without. He grabbed the one without." Karai explained. "So you know which one he grabbed."

""Yes, I do. That stupid ninja grabbed the experimental mixture, that when injected with, turns the person blind in less than 24 hours." Huffed the Shredder. "That means that stupid turtle can still be part of the group and be a pest. If he finds out the cure, then he will be stronger than ever because his senses would have split up between four things now instead of the usual five."

"So what shall I do father?" Karai asked. "Should I get rid of him myself?"

"No, leave things just the way they are. I want to be the one who destroys the turtles." The Shredder declared.

"As you wish father."

And with that said, she left.


Well here is the third chapter of 'I Can't See', hoped you enjoyed it and I will start working on the fourth chapter and hopefully get it uploaded by next week-end.

Until then, bye.
