Donnie's POV
Ancient One's House
Walking up to the Ancient One's house and seeing the door broken in was not an encouraging site. As we all rushed into the house there were foot ninja everywhere! We needed to find the Ancient One fast! The foot were upon us before we got into the door. Taking out my bo staff I was itching to find my brother.
"Ally! Stay behind me," Raph told the girl outing her protectively behind him.
"Michelangelo! Find the Ancient One your brothers and I shall hold the foot off," Splinter told Mikey hitting a foot ninja in the gut with the butt of his walking stick.
Mikey looked over at Master Splinter," Yes Sensei!" He started running through the house occasionally stopping to fight some foot. It was easy to see why Master Splinter picked Mikey he is the fastest and most agile...well at least without Leo he is.
"DONNIE MOVE!" Raph shouted at me as a sword came flying at my neck, without years of ninja training my reflexes wouldn't have saved my butt.
"Thanks Raph!" I told my brother hit the foot over the head with my bo staff.
"No problem bro!" Raph grunted currently throwing a foot ninja over his shell.
"Raphael!" Warned Master Splinter, but the warning came too late as a sword came at Raph. He tried jumping out of the way, but only succeeded at getting his leg sliced.
"Son of a-!" Raph started but soon stopped, knowing never to swear in front of Master Splinter. As we finished up the last foot ninja Mikey came running thought the door with a look of shear panic.
"Sensei! The Ancient One! He's hurt real bad!" Mikey panted from running.
"Donatello! Tend to your brother, I will go to the Ancient One!" Sensei commanded me, then running off with Mikey. Raph was sitting on the ground leaning up against the wall with his leg stretched in front of him. A sheet of sweat over his forehead partially from the battle and the pain, Ally had already taken her jacket off and was applying it to the gash oh his leg. Raph hissed as she applied more pressure.
"Sorry," she mumbled focused on the task at hand.
"Here I have some antiseptic cream and bandages in my bag," I told her grabbing the bag from my shoulder and digging through it. I really should clean it out, it has way too much stuff in it, but oh well! As I finished dressing his wound Master Splinter came in the room looking grim.
"Donatello, I need you to come look at the Ancient One my son," my sensei said urgently.
"Raph you ok?" I asked my brother.
Raph looked at Ally who nodded and back at me, "Yeah bro, I'm good." As I entered the room where the Ancient One was the stench of blood was overwhelming.
"What happened in here?" I said muffled by my arm trying to block out the stench of blood. Coming over to where the Ancient One lay, I had to contain my gasp. His left arm had a huge gash running down from his shoulder down to his elbow. Another deep gash was in his right side, no wonder there was so much blood. "How is he Sensei?"
"I do not know my son, that's why I brought you in here Donatello," Master Splinter told me worry filled his eyes.
My tone softened a little bit, "Ok, let me take a look at him." After a quick examination I came to the conclusion that the Ancient One didn't have any life threatening injuries, but he wasn't out of the woods yet. "Well other than the two gashes he has four cracked ribs, dislocated shoulder, and a pretty bad concussion.
"Will he be ok?" Sensei asked me.
"Yes Master, he'll be fine. But judging the ambush Leo may have been here," I told him my theory.
"Are we gonna ask the Ancient One if he knows where Leo is?" Mikey chimed in.
"Yes Michelangelo."
Raph's POV
"Easy on the leg, babe," I grunted as Ally put more pressure on the gash to wrap it in bandages.
"Sorry Raph, but I have to," She mumbled finishing up bandaging my leg. When she finished though she wouldn't look me in the eye.
I put my hand under her chin and lifted it up so we were face to face and there were tears in her eyes! "Ally? Baby, what's wrong?" Panic overtook me thinking that she was also injured in the fight, "Did they hurt you?"
"No it's not that!" she pushed my hand away from her face. "I just hate that you were hurt! If I knew how to fight better I wouldn't need to be protected and you would only have to worry about yourself and not get injured as much,"
"This was not your fault!" I firmly told her cupping her face in my hands. "I would love to teach you what my Sensei has taught me, but not for you feelin' guilty, OK?" I encouraged her wiping her tears away.
"Ok Raphie," she used a nickname that made my heart flutter with excitement, gosh how I love that woman.
"Let's go check on everyone else," I started to stand but Ally grabbed my arm and put it over her shoulders and took her other arm and put it around my shell. I'm not one to take help but my leg hurts like shell! As we entered the other room the Ancient One was moved into his room resting comfortably. He started to stir and Master Splinter went closer towards him.
"Ancient One?" Splinter asked him
"Splinta-san?" Ancient One slurred.
"I'm here old friend. Relax you were ambushed by the foot ninja."
"Your son Splinta-san, your son Leonardo."
Everyone's ears pricked up to that sentence especially mine.
Master Splinter leaned closer anxious to hear what the Ancient One had to say.
"He went up into the mountains where I first trained him, but he hasn't come back. I'm afraid he is in danger Splinter-san," He slipped back into unconsciousness.
"What are we gonna do now Sensei?" I asked Master Splinter.
"We will find your brother Raphael. I will not lose my son!"
Up Next...We find out how Leo is dealing without the support of his family.
