Come back Mikey - Chapter 2
The three turtles were getting ready to go out on patrol when Donatello sighed. He was exhausted, They all were. None of them have had any sleep for the past week because of a dream that was haunting them all. The dream was of a large shadow running away, They could hear the screams of a frightened 6 year old calling their names, Begging them to help him. All four mutants knew who they were dreaming of, It was Michelangelo. They refused to talk about it unless they had to, They still hadn't found him even after 10 years of searching. Master Splinter was very excited when they had all started having this dream, he had said that it meant that they were going to find Mikey. The three brothers had been excited about the news at the beginning but they still hadn't seen a sign of him.
'You guys ready?' Leo asked sadly,
'Yeah...' Raph sighed,
'Guy's?' Donnie asked, 'Do you think that Mikey will be the same as he used to be?'
'What do you mean?'
'I mean.. Will he still be the ticklish, laughing, constantly smiling, innocent kid that we once knew?' Donnie explained worriedly,
'I hope so...' Leo smiled,
'Do ya think we'll find him tonight?' Raph asked,
'We might' Leo smiled again, 'Come on, let's go'
'Good luck my sons' Splinter called from the dojo as the brothers left the lair.
It was a cold night, The cold air pinched at them as they ran across the roof tops.
'Stop' Leo instructed,
'Wha-?' Raph gasped, The roof top was quiet.
'What is it Leo?' Donnie asked as he and Raph drew their weapons,
'I sense a presence' Leo mumbled,
'Hey dudes, what's up?' A familiar voice asked,
'is that who i think it is?' Leo asked in shock,
'Yep. Leo, Raph, Donnie, ya finally found me'
'M-Mikey?' Raph gasped,
'The one and only' Mikey giggled from out of sight,
'Show yourself Mikey, We want to see you again!' Donnie beamed,
'Gee dudes.. I'm sorry but I can't, You guys need ta go. Get to safety before they attack' Mikey said sadly,
'At least tell us who took you away' Leo sniffed,
'I was taken by Master Shredder, I serve the foot clan. Shredder keeps telling me that I am his son and Karai is my sister but I know the truth. I know that I belong to the Hamato clan, Please bros... Get outta here, I don't wanna have to fight you'
'Mikey, come with us.. please' Donnie begged,
'I'm sorry, I can't.. I'll get you guys killed.. Please go' Mikey sobbed, 'I miss you guys a lot... tell Master Splinter that I miss him'
'Mikey.. please bro' Raph felt the hot tears run down his cheeks, He never cried but this time he just couldn't help it.
'We'll meet again dudes, I promise' Mikey sniffed, They heard a movement then it was silent again.
'Mikey?' Leo asked worriedly,
There was no reply.
'NO! MIKEY! COME BACK PLEASE!' Donnie cried,
'Come on guys, We'd better go' Raph grumbled as they ran away into a dark alley, They were just above the lair.
'I.. I can't believe it... Mikey' Leo cried softly,
'Why wouldn't he come?' Donnie sobbed, 'I want him back Leo!'
'GGGRRRRAAAHHH!' Raph growled as he punched the wall, tears were pouring down his face, 'Mikey... We need him back... WE GOTTA GET HIM BACK!'
'I know Raph, we'll find him again. Master Splinter will come and we'll take him home' Leo nodded,
'But Leo, It took us 10 years to find him once. Imagine how long it could take to find him again' Donnie sobbed,
'I know Don but this time we know who has him, We will fight the Shredder and get Mikey back' Leo sniffed,
'I can't believe it... We've spent so long fighting Shredder and the foot... and we didn't even know that Mikey was one of em! WE COULD HAVE ENDED UP KILLING HIM! OUR OWN BROTHER!' Raph growled angrily.
'We need to get home and tell Splinter about this, he will help us get Mikey back' Leo stood up, 'Come on' Donnie and Raph followed him into the sewers.
'My sons, Why have you returned so early?' Splinter asked worriedly,
'We found Mikey Sensei' Leo announced sadly,
'Explain' Splinter sat down with his children and listened with out interruption as they explained what had happened that night. 'Michelangelo... working with the Shredder..' Splinter scowled once they had finished.
'Master, he didn't want to work with them' Donnie sniffed,
'I know my son... Poor thing' Splinter shook his head,
'We're gonna help him right?' Raph asked hopefully,
'Yes Raphael' Splinter frowned confidently, 'We will stop at nothing to get him back'
