Chapter 6: Michaelangelo-Fear

He knew it, they were all scared, scared in they're own way though.

Splinter was afraid of losing them, Don of being hauled off to some lab, Leo of being unable to protect them, Raph of being starved of freedom, himself? All of the above.

He was simply terrified of losing the whole group, of losing family, of friends. Afraid to face the horrors of what humans did to things they didn't understand.

But now he was more fearful than ever before, Don and Leo had left the lair to repair the cameras.

It had already been two hours since they left and a half-hour since they last checked in.

Raph was pacing the lair's entrance, Splinter was standing by the door, watching, waiting, fearful.

Then it happened, the phone rang.

He slowly walked toward the phone and fumbled with it before managing to press it to his ear.

"Hello?" he whispered.

"Mikey…they got Leo and Don," April's voice broke the silence, "they're on the news right now."

He choked back a terrified scream, what were they going to do?

A/N: I'll be updating as often as I can but my schedule is very hectic right now as I'm trying to keep up with all of my homework, work, and sleep. I slept like three hours last night but wanted to get this done for you guys.
