I wrote this for a new friend of mine on deviantArt called Allegra-chan. Btw, you should TOTALLY check her out, because her drawings of the Dark Turtles are pure win. :D Dark Donnie is so blinking CUUUUUUTE! :D Sorry this doesn't strictly follow what you specified (as in, the team wasn't almost destroyed). ^^'

Dark Leo and Dark Don did not usually spend time together. When they did, it was to fine-tune plans to beat the turtles. Perhaps it was from frustration at the state of their relationship that caused the blue turtle to lash out so badly when one of their plans went wrong due to something Dark Don did. But then again, it could be because Dark Mikey had been hurt due to the mistake. "Shut up!" Dark Don roared. "It was YOUR stupid idea to attack tonight!"

"It was just a thought! YOU'RE the moron who thought up the plan!"

"You agreed to it!"

"That isn't the poi-"

"WILL YOU TWO ZIP IT?" yelled Dark Mikey. "We all agreed to go, not just Leo! And Don couldn't have known what would happen!" The purple and blue brothers glared at each other for awhile, then turned and stalked off in opposite directions. Dark Mikey sighed. "Why can't they just get along?"

"For the same reasons we can't get along," said Dark Raph, giving his yellow brother a teasing grin.

"Ha ha, very funny," said Dark Mikey. "At least we both have fun still, even if you won't admit I'm better."

"Pfft, I'm better looking." Dark Mikey burst out laughing.

"Alright alright, I'll give you that, but I'm better at everything else!"

"You wish."

Dark Don was seriously annoyed, but he knew that this outing was necessary. Of course, that wasn't what bothered him. What bothered him was that he had to go with Dark Leo. He still hadn't gotten over the stinging insults to his intelligence that the blue turtle had delivered before he had finally lashed out at the blue turtle. Dark Leo grabbed his arm and jerked him into an alley. "What the-?"

"Run, I'll cover you," said Dark Leo. Their counterparts appeared moments later. Dark Don cursed. "Run!" Dark Leo hissed. "I'll buy you time."

"For heaven's sake! Why are you doing this?" Dark Leo smirked and grabbed his arm, then whirled him and threw him.

"Get that stuff back to Raph and Mikey!"

"LEO!" he screamed angrily. Dark Leo didn't reply, he only turned around and prepared to fight the turtles. "Hold on, moron," Dark Don whispered.

Dark Don came back as soon as the food was dropped off and he had tended to Dark Mikey. It had been a rush job, but it would hold until he could come back and do better. Huge piles of rubble lay everywhere, and he frantically began digging through one. Dark Leo was such an idiot! They could have both taken out the turtles, or outrun them. Finding a blue arm that was dangerously gray, he checked for a pulse. He almost sobbed with relief when he found one. He dug Dark Leo out then dragged him towards the Terrorpin. "So ya came back for 'im." Dark Don looked up to see Raphael looking at him. The other turtles were behind him, but they were all tinged red. Dark Don looked down at his brother, and found the case to be the same with him.

"You might want to stop talking to me," he suggested. "If you do, things will get very bad for you, and my brother might die. If he does, I'll make your lives hell." Dark Don gave them no time to reply, he simply finished dragging his brother into the ship and took off, setting it on autopilot.

"TOO BAD HE DIDN'T DIE!" Raphael shouted. Dark Don's world went entirely red then, and he screamed with rage, clawing at the ship's windows as they were taken out of sight.

"That was cold, Raph," said Michelangelo, frowning. Raphael simply snorted and walked back to the Hovershell.

When Dark Leo came to, he found that Dark Don was gripping his hand tightly, and was asleep. He grunted and tried to move, but found it made most of him hurt when he tried. "You've been out for two days, I wouldn't recommend moving." He looked up.

"What happened?" Dark Mikey came into the lab and sat on one of the cots, swinging his legs back and forth.

"Well Don came back here in a rush and changed my bandages and adjusted my splint then rushed off again without an explanation. When he came back again, he had you and his eyes were a bit red. He was really P.O'd and shut himself up in here with you. Just this morning he unlocked the door and told us you'd be okay. He passed out awhile ago." Dark Leo nodded.

"How are you doing?"

"Eh, not exactly peachy keen, but I'll be right as a dead Darius in no time." Dark Leo chuckled. "I'll leave you two alone now," said Dark Mikey. "Holler if ya need anything." The blue turtle nodded, and the yellow one left. Dark Don shot up, blinking rapidly.

"You shouldn't be sitting up yet," he said flatly, pushing Dark Leo down and turning his face away, but not before the blue turtle saw the remnants of tears.

"Don? Are you okay?"

"Perfectly fine, Fearless," the purple turtle snapped. "You're such a jackass! Why did you throw me? We could have got out of there together!"

"You were the one who said we had to hurry because we didn't want Mikey's injuries being infected," pointed out Dark Leo. Dark Don clutched his head.

"Argh! You stupid insufferable moron!" Sighing, the purple turtle sat down. "Thanks though," he whispered. "But don't ever do that again, you almost died." The genius' hands clenched on his knees.

"Is that why you were crying?"

"OF COURSE IT WAS, YOU FOOL! We can't survive without you!"

"You wouldn't be crying if that was the only reason," said Dark Leo, crossing his arms. Dark Don sighed.

"Look, you're my brother, no matter how hopelessly dumb you can be, I'm still going to care for you whether I like it or not." They looked at each other for a moment then spoke in unison.

"Moron."

AHAHAHAHAHA! *cries* This is so far from perfect! D': But let me explain the whole 'moron' thing. With the Dark Turtles, I got the notion that it was a brotherly thing they do. Affectionately calling someone a moron... *shakes head and grins* That fits my mental image of them perfectly. XD Anyway... I hope that Allegra will like this. O_O

Read and review please!
