Time for Splinter to find out! Enjoy xx
Creep
Chapter 10
The three turtles entered the sewers slowly and quietly, they were not looking forward to explaining everything to their father!
But Donnie needed them and this is the only way to help him.
They entered the lair and stood in the living room, they couldn't help but look over at Donatello's lab.
They wished he was still in there doing his experiments and typing on his computer.
''My sons'' They looked round to see their father looking concerned. ''Are you three alright? Where is Donatello?''
At the mention of their missing brother's name Mikey broke down in tears, Leo and Raph were trying hard not to cry in front of their Sensei.
Splinter rushed forward and pulled all three of his children into his arms.
''What has happened?'' He asked fearfully. ''Tell me''
''W-we're so sorry for lying'' Leo sniffled. ''We weren't at April's, we just told you that so you wouldn't worry''
Raph and Mikey nodded.
''When we were on patrol Donnie could feel someone following him and it turned out to be this creep who wanted to take him and… and-'' Leo swallowed thickly, ''he wanted to rape Donnie Sensei! He kept calling him his prey and telling us he'd get him!''
Splinter wasn't sure he wanted to hear the rest of this story but he continued to listen with dread in his heart.
''He attacked a couple of times but we stopped him from getting Donnie but'' Leo took a deep breath as tears ran down his face. ''We messed up Sensei… we fell asleep with no one on watch and he took him! He took Donnie!''
''We met Donnie on the Astral Plain'' Raph took over seeing as Leo was really struggling now. ''The guy's already raped him and is gonna do it again! We need to save him but we don't know where he is''
''We need you to sense him or something!'' Mikey and his brothers looked up at their father to see tears running down his face.
''My poor child'' Splinter said in a strained voice as he held his remaining children closer. ''We cannot allow this man to keep him… but…''
The boys looked up in worry.
''I can't sense him unless he's feeling strong emotions'' Splinter sighed. ''We will have to wait for a while''
But before he could say another thing he felt something.
''Wait'' he frowned, the turtles looked up in shock. ''I can feel him… he's frightened…''
Everyone felt their hearts clench.
Splinter closed his eyes and focused on helping his child.
Nobody abuses his son and gets away with it. Especially when it comes to one of his youngest babies.
''He's not in New York'' Splinter announced. ''He is far into the countryside to the north of New York in some sort of ruins''
The turtles got up and bowed before making their way out again.
''My sons'' Splinter called. ''If you do not return soon I shall come and find you. I trust you three to get your brother, you must not show this man mercy''
The boys frowned at the harshness of their father's voice, he looked furious.
''He's gonna die'' Raph replied firmly. ''He's gonna feel pain''
''Good'' Splinter nodded. ''Nobody takes one of our own and nobody does… THAT to one of my children''
They could hear the fierceness and they felt slightly touched and slightly frightened.
''Yes Father'' They bowed before rushing out of the sewers.
Master Splinter walked into the lab and looked around sadly, he prayed for his child to be ok at the end of all this. He hoped Donnie would return as the same turtle he was when he left.
He knew his son would need time to heal and will never forget what happened.
But Splinter knew the entire family would be there for him.
He went into his room and looked under his bed, he pulled out an old dusty box and opened it.
He pulled out an old toy robot with a purple band around its neck, this had been Donnie's favourite toy when he was little.
He dug around a bit more to find photographs of his children. He found one of Donnie standing proudly next to his first invention which, if Splinter remembered correctly, exploded five minutes after the photo had been taken.
Still, the boy looked very proud of himself. Splinter smiled wetly at the huge grin on his child's face.
He let out a quiet sob.
His innocent baby did not deserve what was happening to him, his poor wondrous son whose intelligence outshone every other being's on earth!
Splinter packed away his memos again and sat in a meditative pose. He wanted to speak to his child.
He focused and soon found himself in the Astral Plane.
In front of him stood Donatello.
He had more energy this time and wasted no time in flinging himself into his father's embrace.
''Sensei'' He choked. ''I'm so happy to see you!''
''Donatello'' Splinter stroked Donnie's shell, ''You're brothers are on their way. You will be returned to us soon my child''
''I'm sorry we didn't tell you Master'' Donnie sniffed. ''I didn't want to worry you''
They hugged tighter.
''I'm scared Sensei'' Donnie sniffled as Splinter noticed the collar and started inspecting it. ''I'm sore and this guy's trying to make me do things I really don't wanna do''
Splinter looked into his son's eyes as he began to cry.
''Do not be afraid my son. I am here'' He took a deep breath to stop himself from breaking down in front of his child. ''I will give you my strength when you feel weak, you will be ok and you will return home''
''But what's gonna happen to me while my brothers are travelling here?'' Donnie asked fearfully. ''There's no one to help me here…''
Splinter jumped when Donnie suddenly looked horrified.
''WHAT IF THAT MAN GETS THEM TOO!?'' Donnie squeaked and started to fade slightly. ''WHAT IF HE DOES THE SAME THING TO THEM THAT HE DID TO ME?''
''Donatello'' Splinter gulped. ''You must calm down my son, you will break the connection.''
Donnie forced himself to calm down.
''Your brothers will be fine. If none of you return soon or I sense you all being in danger I will come after you'' Splinter smiled kindly, ''That man will not get away with this''
''Ok'' Donnie nodded as he took deep breaths. ''Thank you father… I must go now''
Splinter nodded and kissed Donnie before the connection broke.
He opened his eyes and cried as he hugged himself.
His poor family.
…
The three turtles were jumping from rooftop to rooftop to try and get to their brother quickly. It was exhausting!
Suddenly a cloud of shadows descended on them.
''what the-?'' They gasped.
They heard the laughing of the man as darkness surrounded them.
Their last thoughts were of Donnie before they fell unconscious.
Uh oh... Please Review? x
