Disclaimer: still no....hugs Leo "hang in there"

*Thanks for all the reviews. The answer to a few of your questions are No I didn't ask for 5 review just for the attention here are the reasons why I asked:

1.) I know a lot of people are reading my stories and a review is a conformation of that...

2.) Reviews let me know what my readers are thinking...

3.) Reviews tell me that the story was good enough to pause a moment and type out a response.

To those of you who don't know I really am an author :). Now before you race off to find my books, WAIT!!! My first book is in the editing process right now it is due to be at pubishers by late November/ early December. "Grabs racing fans". ;)LOL ok back to the story...

Chapter 2: Broken and Battered

Hun makes his way past me...just out of reach towards Mikey. Mike is pulling back struggling to get away. I see Don out of the corner of my eye fighting his chains as hard as I am. I twist to the end of my chains, struggling, Hun grabs Mikey and jerks him up, Mikey twists and squirms...Hun makes the mistake of stepping back into my reach. I don't even remember moving but somehow I've got the chain from my arms around Hun's neck. He drops Mikey and grabs my hands, nearly crushing them in an attempt to pry them away. I jerk back and twist the chain, my vision is clouded with red and I'm seeing tunnel Vision. Hun slams us into the wall, everything blacks out for a minute. The next thing I know is that Hun is kicking me and then he grabs my head...I think of Leo. My head hits the ground and I kick out fighting to get away...I'm not going to let him beat me in front of my little bros. I land a kick and he grunts.

"All right freak," he spits as he grabs my throat and squezzes. I can't breathe and my vision starts to go dark...no...I can't.....Mikey...Donnie....Leo...Everything blackens.

A groan makes its way through the muzzle I slowly open my eyes. No....Leo's gone...I twist around searching desperately...Don's in the corner....Mikey!! Mikey's gone too..Don is covered in bruises and his head has blood on it. He's leaning against the wall the muzzle looks like it's too tight, it's digging into the skin, his eyes are closed. I try to move my arms and realize I'm chained like Leo was. I don't know how long I was out...but I failed my brothers...is this how Leo feels when we get hurt? The utter weight of...fear? I struggle to my feet and find I can't move easily. I'm definatly chained like Leo was. Suddenly a high pitched scream rips through the air. Don sits up and goes pale, tears start rolling down his cheeks and he starts shaking. I freeze and look toward the door....Mikey....oh God...no....Mikey!! I find myself twisting against the chains as another pain filled scream reaches our ears. Don's sobbing in the corner. I can hear the muffled sounds coming from him and it only drives me to fight harder. We gotta get out of here. In a fit of rage I begin rubbing my head against the wall in an attempt to lossen the buckle on my muzzle. I'm rubbing my face raw but I don't care...Don's watching me in horror...he probably thinks I've lost my mind. Suddenly hear a "Click" and the muzzle lossens and after more rubbing it falls away. I take a deep breath and lean back for a second but there's no time to rest 'cus another scream reaches my ears. I hear clinking and the sound of someone rubbing their head against the wall. I look over. Don's trying to get his muzzle off but his has a different latch on his...it requires a key...

"Don" my voice sounds rusty," Don don't....it needs a key" Don looks at me desperately, he's shaking, chocolate-brown eyes pleading....questioning. I manage to shake my head and try to get up again this time I manage to somehow. Another agony filled scream reaches us and I grit my teeth and test the chain to see how strong it is. Another scream starts and then is cut off suddenly. Don and I lock eyes and then I throw my weight forward, pain....my arms and shoulders are burning....I try again....desperate...pain...it gets worse. The door opens and Mikey is dragged in. Hun drops him and glares at me. He leaves Mikey where he lays and comes to me...smirking...but I can tell I've ticked him off.

"Well looks like you've got your muzzle off freak," he growls

"Figured ya'd want someone ta' talk ta' Honey," I spit. He punches me in the face and my legs buckle as my head spins. I hear Don's muffled cry...Mikey hasn't moved. He grabs me and leans close.

"If you want Leonardo to live you'll keep your mouth shut freak...I've got an axe with his name on it," Hun whispers. I can't move...I can't breathe....Leo...no...

"His shell's got some chucks missing already....Maybe I'll just put him out of hs misery....you see He'll never walk again...the axe was nice and sharp...hit the spinal cord...at the waist..." Hun whispers.

I can't even think now....Leo...paralysed? No...no....nononononono! Leo...oh my God! Hun laughs and grabs Mike...I can't move I'm in shock...my anger fails me....replaced by terror. Hun grabs Mikey and chains him back up...his eyes are open...full of tears...his muzzle was horribly tight Hun grabs me and roughly puts the muzzle back on...this time putting a lock on it like Don's...he laughs and walks out...the door closes ominously...minutes later an agony filled scream reaches us...I recognised it and to my horror I realize the screams we've been hearing weren't Mikey's....they were Leo's...

I look at Mikey who's sobbing now, tears streaming down his cheeks, shoulders shaking....Hun...Hun made Mikey watch...I look at Don...he doesn't know....but he can still hear....

Another scream rips through the silence and then cuts off abruptly...
