(A/N: Should I say this or not? People might be sad though… Oh well. This is the second to last chapter. But the cool thing is, there are three other possible endings than the one I am going to end with. So… If this chapter or the next one gets a descent amount of reviews, then I will post all of the possible endings. This chapter's flashback is in Donnie's POV and the present POV is also in Donnie's POV.)

FLASHBACK

I was standing on a rooftop. Close by were many shadowed figures, frozen, like a paused movie. I recognized Foot Ninjas, and the Shredder. And there were two turtles… Me and Leo!

Leo…

Just the mention of his name made my heart sink into the deeper parts of my body cavity.

The scene began to play. The Shredder seized 'my' arm, and Leo tries to fight him off. I see claws digging into my brother. I cringe and want to attack my enemy when I see tons of blood. I see 'me' get thrown to the side, I expect to feel something, but I am completely numb. The Shredder grabs the back of Leo's neck.

"No! Let go of him!" I scream, but he doesn't seem to listen. I turn to the replica of me. "What are you doing just sitting there watching?! It's just sore! Get him! Fight!" I scream desperately. No one is listening to me. I feel myself fall to my knees when Leo is thrown aside, completely immobilized. I want to cry, but I am completely numb, still. I see 'me' crawl to him. There is conversation being shared.

All I hear is "Just do it… Make the pain go away…" My heart flutters, hearing my lost brother's voice again. I run to the sight, trying to stop the sword that I knew was coming.

"Don't do it! I can fix him!" I yell. I finally next to them and I grab the sword. I try and try, but I can't move it whatsoever. "STOP!" I cry. I can feel the texture of the sword, but I can't stop anything from happening. The sword enters my brother's chest and I feel sick to my stomach. I see his chest stop moving and my heart just pretty much stops beating. I see 'me' start to cry into his bloody, dead body. I sit next to 'me'. I get a sudden urge to check his pulse. I touch the side of his neck. I expect to feel nothing, but feel a fading pulse. My eyes widen.

"Me! I mean, Don! Listen to me! He has a pulse! Help him! Get him breathing!" I scream. "Do it… He's going to die if you don't!" I scream desperately. I then realize that no one can hear me. I back away, breathing heavily.

"No… NO!" I scream, although no one can hear me. I come close again, and touch my dead brother's face. I can feel every single feature. And tears finally come to this fantasy version of me and I cry. And cry.

And cry.

I wake up from the dream, but nothing feels the same anymore. I feel… Empty. Seeing my brother again, even if it is a dream, makes me once again realize how much his death affected me. Ever since the dream, I begin to isolate myself from everyone else. They don't need a nuisance like me, bringing down their moods and being an emotional wreck.

Apparently, I give off that feeling too, for Mikey has been leaving me alone every day since I made that decision.

PRESENT

Mike has been avoiding me like the plague ever since I woke up one day seeing all my IVs torn out. I don't know why. It's almost like when my dream… Oh never mind.

I've been alone for a while now. Raph hasn't been really near me since Leo passed, Splinter only tolerates me because I am his son, and Mike… He was around me every day, until he started to avoid me. Am I that bad of an emotional wreck?

But now… I am truly alone. I thought Mike would be by my side until the end, but I was wrong. Leo is still always going to be with me, but I can't see him. I can't talk to him about my feelings anymore…

Maybe… Maybe things would be better if I was with Leo. If I was dead. Like him. My family wouldn't have to put up with me, and everything would be fine, because Leo would be beside me for eternities to come.

I look around our Lair, trying to find something. I see it. My heart rises in my throat in excitement.

Two days.

Two days until I die.

Two days until I am with Leo.
