Creep
Chapter 16
''Father?''
At the sound of their brother's relieved voice the three younger brothers peeked around him to see the same figure.
''M-My sons'' Splinter smiled and he flew towards them and hugged them. ''I thought I'd never see you again''
The turtles hugged him back.
Splinter let go and looked over them all.
''Did he hurt any of you?'' He asked worriedly, He saw Donnie bow his head.
''He didn't hurt us Sensei'' Leo motioned to himself, Mikey and Raph, ''But… Donnie…'' Leo looked over at Donnie.
''Donatello'' Splinter choked, He pulled said turtle into his arms and nearly crushed him in his desperate hug, ''my poor precious boy… Do not worry, you won't be here much longer''
Donnie nodded and gave his father a small smile.
''I'm sorry we worried you'' He said quietly.
''It is not your fault'' Splinter kissed Donnie's forehead gently before standing up, his children followed his lead. ''Come my sons, it is time to put an end to this.''
The turtles grinned.
Master Splinter pulled his Katana out of the beast's body and sheathed it before leading his sons out of the room and out of the dangerous corridor.
''How did you get up here Sensei?'' Leo asked curiously,
''I am a rat and a ninja'' Splinter chuckled. ''Old stone walls are practically ladders for me''
The turtles chuckled and smiled in relief. They were so happy their father was finally there to protect them, he had kept his promise.
Together they made their way through the corridors back to the dining room, they figured the creep would be there.
''Somebody needs to go in first and distract him'' Leo nodded, ''He won't be able to run if we get him by surprise''
But nobody wanted to go first and Splinter couldn't. Donatello looked at his brothers and sighed.
''I guess I'll do it'' He gulped. ''Just… Just kill him before he can touch me ok?''
''Promise'' The three turtles and rat whispered, they smiled at him weakly and he nodded.
He opened the door slightly and slipped in, he closed the door gently and frowned. Was the creep not here?
''Donatello!'' Donnie jumped as the man stood up from behind the table, Don frowned. ''What brings you here?''
Donnie walked towards him, he needed to get the man's back to the door.
''Um… why were you under the table?'' He questioned.
''There has been some bad smells coming from this room'' The man shrugged. ''Turns out there enough rotten food under that table to cure world hunger"
Donnie suppressed a gag and covered his mouth with one of his hands.
''How are you feeling now anyway?'' The man walked around the table to stand by Donnie's side.
''Um… better? I guess'' Donnie shuffled nervously and Hubert smiled.
''Good. Glad to hear it'' The man chuckled happily, his lover was finally better! ''Would you like something to eat? You missed lunch''
''I'm fine'' Donnie shrugged as he moved so the man would have to turn his back to the door in order to face him.
''Then you'll have to have a big dinner!'' the man did exactly what Donnie wanted him to do, Don tapped loudly on the table as a signal to his family.
He looked around nonchalantly but when he looked up he saw the man licking his lips and slowly shifting towards him.
''I really am glad you're better'' The man grinned seductively, He loomed over Donnie casting a shadow over the terrified turtle.
''U-uh'' Donnie stuttered as he backed away as much as he could, his shell hit the table and the man chuckled.
''Don't be nervous'' He shook his head lightly.
Donnie didn't know what to do, why wasn't his family helping him?
Outside the dining room some shadow monsters had appeared, Splinter was defending his family as the turtles tried to fight without weapons. Mikey opened the door enough to peek through without being noticed.
He closed it quietly and turned to his family.
''We need to hurry!'' He yelped quietly, ''the creepy dude has Donnie cornered!''
The others shot a fearful glance at the door but knew they had no way of helping Donnie until the monsters were stopped. They only hoped the man wouldn't touch the boy before they were ready.
Donnie gulped and realised his family weren't even in the room. He knew he'd have to take matters into his own hands, he glanced at the table as he felt the man's breath on his neck.
He saw a lit candle nearby and grabbed it.
''Now that your better… could I?... Steal a kiss?'' The man asked before going in for a kiss, before he could Donnie lifted the candle and pushed the flame against the man's cheek.
''AAAARRRGGGGHHHH!'' The man screamed as he stumbled back. Donnie dropped the candle and it rolled off to the side of the room where it lit a tapestry alight, all the tapestries lining the walls were soon ablaze as the man straightened up.
Donnie's eyes widened at the large burn mark on the man's face. That was going to scar!
''YOU DARE ATTACK ME!?'' The man screamed in a mad rage, he stormed forward and Donnie vaulted over the table. Running away only drove the mad man on. ''NOBODY ATTACKS ME AND GETS AWAY WITH IT!''
Donnie coughed as he inhaled smoke, he could barely see the walls and doors of the room but he didn't miss seeing the man grab a large blade off of the table.
''IF YOU WON'T OBEY ME THEN I WILL JUST HAVE TO KILL YOU BOY!'' The man yelled as he dashed towards the poor turtle, Donnie vaulted over the table once again and backed away as the man did the same.
''LEAVE ME ALONE!'' Donnie growled and jumped out the way as the man tried to slash him.
He dodged the man once again and the creep kicked the table over and pushed it against the back wall. Donnie grimaced at the layer of rotten food that had now been smeared over the floor, it was so furry it looked like an old dusty carpet!
''NO MORE!'' The man bellowed.
Donnie glared at the man as the smoke stung his eyes. He knew there was no more running.
Back outside the dining room the last monster had been slayed.
''Dudes…'' Mikey frowned as he smelled smoke. ''What's- HOLY CRAP!''
The other family members turned to see smoke billowing out from under the dining room door, they could feel the heat radiating out from under it.
They stepped closer to hear two voices.
''YOU ARE DEAD TO ME!'' The recognised the mad man's scream. ''HOW DARE YOU ATTACK ME AND RUIN MY DINING ROOM!''
''I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF BEING YOUR TOY!'' They heard Donnie shout back fiercely.
Donatello glared at the man, he knew the man was going to win. After all he was insane and had a sharp, deadly weapon while Donnie had… nothing. Well… he had 16 years of Ninjuitsu training under his belt but he doubted that would help when he was unarmed and in a small room that was full of smoke and on fire.
''ARRRRGGGGGGHHHHH!'' The man growled as he dashed towards Donnie, Donnie forward flipped over him and kicked him in the back before landing and facing his opponent.
The man snarled angrily and stormed towards Donnie again.
''You ungrateful bitch'' The man spat Donnie was about to dodge but the man grabbed him and slashed under his collar bone, if it had been higher and a little deeper it could have killed him. He kicked Donnie in the chest causing the already choking turtle to collapse to the floor, the smoke was really getting to him.
The smoke had now completely covered the room, Donnie could see nothing but the man standing over him with a knife directed at his heart.
''I did all this for you! Everything here was all for you!'' The man had tears running down his face. ''And this is the thanks I get? I've loved you from day one! How could you betray me?''
Donnie gulped as rage consumed his rapist.
''If I can't have you… THEN NOBODY WILL!'' He screamed as the knife flew down.
Suddenly the man froze and stuck his hand in his pocket before turning into shadow, Donnie flinched as he disappeared and a sword struck the place where he had been.
''He's gone!?'' Splinter gasped before choking on the smoke. ''How can this be?''
''Donnie?'' Leo called.
Donatello stood up at the sound of his family's worried voices, his throat felt too raw to talk so he headed towards where they came from.
As he walked forwards he saw their forms take shape through the smoke, he didn't stop until he could make them out clearly but they had their backs to him and were looking around hurriedly.
He coughed weakly and smiled as his family spun around to face him. They grinned and pulled him closer, he hugged them back before allowing them to drag him out of the smoky room.
They pulled him far down the corridor where the fire hadn't spread.
''Are you ok?'' They asked worriedly ''Did he do anything to you?''
Donnie swallowed thickly.
''Just cut my neck a little'' He said as he touched the wound. ''But you should see him''
''Why?'' Mikey asked with a sly grin. ''We hear you caused the fire?''
''Yeah by burning his face'' Donnie chuckled as Mikey whooped.
''Very well done Donatello'' Splinter nodded. ''But our battle is not done yet, he is still here somewhere and we must destroy him''
''Hai'' The four brothers nodded before grinning at each other.
''I sense him'' Splinter announced. ''Follow me''
He lead them away from the burning side of the castle, they needed to kill this creep. They could not afford for him to come back and torment their family again.
I will try and post up the next chapter later today. Until then please leave a review! xx
