BOUND: CHAPTER 5

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN THE TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURLES. I DO HOWEVER OWN SHADOW!

Tilting his head slightly to the side, Shadow looked at Michelangelo with amusement. Chuckling slightly his eyes glistened at the pathetic attempt this mutant turtle had in believing he stood a chance against him.

"Tell me Michelangello. Are you afraid?"

Gripping his numbchucks tightly, Michelangello's mind raced as he stared at this mutant turtle before him.

What is going on here? How can this be possible? And what are those teeth? I want Donnie and Leo and Ralph.

The last thought brought a new swell of tears to his eyes. Choking them back, he looked at Shadow.

"N...no...I'm not afraid of you."

He replied wondering if he was trying to persuade himself of Shadow.

Releasing a dry long cackle, Shadow folded his arms across his chest.

"Then tell me my young mutant friend, why are you gripping your weapons so tightly. Why fight to live if you're just going to take your own life?"

"I'm...I don't want..."

"Oh...so I suppose your brother didn't matter did he? I suppose you were tired of being picked on and teased and riddiculed from him is that correct. So you're going to live knowing the fact that he will never again see the light of day!"

Michelangello's body began to tremble as tears cascading down his green cheeks. He glared hatefully at Shadow, his mind showing nothing but red.

"I told you...it was an accident! I LOVED MY BROTHER!"

Smiling, Shadow took a step toward's Michelangello.

"Sure you did."

In a swift movement, before Michelangello even had to the chance to think, Shadow swept at him, his eyes glaring red and his teeth glistening in the dim light that the sewers portrayed. His eyes bulged as Michelangello attempted to knock his assailant to the side. Shadow easily glided to the side avoiding the attacks.

"Just give in Michelangello. Give in and I'll rid you of all your pain all of your suffering."

A round kick was his answer as Michelangello wondered just what he was fighting for.

SOMEWHERE ELSE IN THE SEWERS

The fratic search continued as three brothers desperatly held on to the fact that they believed that they still had time to save their youngest sibling. Neither one of them spoke to each other as they called out Michelangello's name, their hearts racing each time, hoping that he would answer. Leonardo fought hard to keep his tears at bay. Muttering himself as listened to the echo of his own voice.

"He's okay...Damn it Leonardo He's okay...He's okay."

Next to him, Raphael, tightened his fist silently blaming himself for this. But refused to give up.

To Leonardo's other side, Donatello's eyes searched every dark corner of the sewers, his heart leaping each time he saw a movement just for it to turn out to be nothing.

"MIKEY! MICHELANGELLO! MIKEY!"

Each yelled out feeling more frantic by the second. Unknowing how close they were.

Breathing heavily, Michelangello tilted his head puzzled to the side as he could of sworn he had heard his name.

"That...my friend is a mistake!"

Shadow hissed as he swept as Michelangello, his arms extened as he came down ontop of him, causing Michelangello to lose his balance. Kneeling on his chest, Shadow smirked as he looked down at the green mutant turtle under him.

"I told you it was fruitless to try to defeat me. I've had my eyes on you for quite some time Michelangello."

"But...but...why..."

His answer was another dry laugh as Shadow spun off of Michelangello as well as in a one swift movement, forced him onto his feet, his arm bent akwardly behind his shell, causing Michelangello to grimace in pain.

"That you will learn in due time my friend. But as for now..."

Giving him a hard push, Shadow forced Michelangello to walk foward. With his arm in the position that he was, Michelangello had no room for arguements. One wrong movement. Even a stumble or a trip could tear his arm out of the socket.

"If you're going to kill me then just do it!"

"You do change your mind so quickly. First it's I want to die then I don't then it's don't kill me and then it's please do! Oh Michelangello, we are going to have so much fun together."

Shadow hissed lightly breathing into his ear, causing goosebumps to run down his entire body. With another push, they continued on.

"MICHELANGELLO!'

Three voices rang out ahead of them. Michelangello's heart began to race as his eyes lit up in confuse, wonder and disbelief.

"Le...AWK!"

His reply was made short as Shadow griped his other hand around his neck, squeezing tightly.

"Now...now...now..."

Michelangello whimpered as he watched his brother's come into view.

"MICHELANGELLO!"

Donatello cried out, the first to spot him. Behind him, Leonardo and Raphael mometarily leapt for joy until the saw the creature behind their younger brother.

"Who the hell are you?"

Raphael demanded, his eyes narrowing as the hatred built just for the simple fact that this creature was hurting his brother.

"What the hell are you doing to our little brother!"

Shadow laughed as he watched the scene before him.

"Ah... A family reunion. How sweet. Michelangello would you care to say anything?"

Michelangello looked on in disbelief at Raphael, the tears falling from his eyes.

"Raph...Raphael? You're not...you're not dead!"

"No.."

Raphael replied with a smirk

"Let Michelangello go right now mister!"

Leonardo demanded taking his katatana from his seath.

"Oh I do not think that is possible. Leonardo."

Shadow replied as he bent Michelangello's arm back, causing him to howl in pain.

"And I would advise you to put away your weapon unless you three enjoy seeing your younger brother being tortured."

Reluctanly, the three had to obey. Replacing their weapons into their holders, Leonardo, Donatello, and Raphael glared hatefully at the mutant turtle before them.

"Just what do you want?"

"A playmate"

"Don't you dare hurt him!"

"I wouldn't dream of it!"

Looking down at Michelangello, Shadow smirked.

"Remember when you asked me to kill you?"

His smile widened as he looked up at the shocked look of the three turtles.

"Well, my answer is no I will not. But they will!"

At that persise moment, Shadow sank his fangs into Michelangello's green skin, slowly sucking on his crimson blood. Michelangello's mouth opened to an empty scream as he looked towards his three oldest brothers begging them to help them. But all they could do was stand there and stare. After what seemed like an eternity, Shadow, retracted from Michelangello, licking the blood from his lips. Looking down at his little play mate, he smirked as he let go of him. With nothing suppoting him, Michelangello's eyes rolled back as he fell slowly to the floor. Although he did not hit the concrete as a hand shot out and stopped him. Raphael help onto his brother tightly as behind him, Leonardo and Donatello leapt at Shadow, the hatred burning even deeper.

"You'll pay for that you bastard!"

Shadow laughed half-heartily as he vanished into a puff of grey smoke.

"MIKEY!"

Raphael cried out, shaking his limb brother.

"LEO! DONNIE! He won't...he won't wake up!"

Raphael stammered, his eyes full of fear. Donatello quickly knelt beside Raphael his hand shaking as he felt for a pulse. His eyes widened at the result, his eyes glistening as he looked up at his two siblings, his voice threatening to break.

"He...there...is no ...pulse..."

The color in Leonardo's face drained as he fell to his knees, his eyes blank.

"No..."

"NOOOO! NOOO! IT'S NOT TRUE!"

Raphael cried out, shaking his limp brother.

"DAMN IT MIKEY! WAKE UP! WAKE UP!"

The tears rolled down his red bandanana as he continued to shake.

"Raph..."

Donatello replied half-heartily placing his hand on his brother's shoulder, the tears falling. That won't bring him back.

"Why?"

Not one had the answer as the three wept over the loss of their younger brother.

MOMENTS LATER

When there were no more tears to shed, Raphael stood up glaring into the darkness.

"I swear I'm going to kill him!"

His voice full of venom as he glaced back at his brothers.

"Are you with me?"

Both nodded their heads the taste of revenge on their lips.

"Kill who?"

A voice replied behind them. Spinning around, they stared blankly into the eyes of their deceased brother.
