Hey! I decided to make chapter 2 early. (i was bored)
Spirits, Machines and other things
Chapter 2
It had been 8 months since Splinter had died and the turtles were coping well, they still grieved the loss of thier father but they were powering through. They helped each other through the difficult time and nver lost hope. But Donnie still hadn't forgotten the strange incident that happened with he had touched the machine but every thing was normal, he had a sample of the strange substance that left a mark on the ceiling but he unfortunatly dropped it on some cables and when he came back to clean it up it had gone. He decided just to focus on his inventions.
Mikey was sitting in the livingroom watching tv and Raph and Leo were playing pinball. Mikey's favourite tv show as on and was about to finish when the screen started to go bright,
'What the?' Mikey began when a huge beam of light shot out of the tv and onto him, the light was so hot it felt like he was on fire and he screamed in pain,
'MIKEY!' Raph shouted as he ran towards the tv with Leo following close behind. Raph ripped the plug out of the socket and the beam immiediatly disappeared,
'Mikey are you ok?' Leo asked as he hugged his brother to comfort him, Raph looked around to see all the electronics that were plugged in had sprung to life,
'Oh my god' Raph said in shock 'The machine have flipped out!'
'Good job none of us are too close to them' Leo replied and then they heard a terrified scream from the lab,
'OH MY GOD, DONNIE!' yelled Leo as he ran to save Donnie, he had completly forgotten about Dons inventions. He and Raph burst into the lab to see Donnie in a corner with his bo staff in hand, but something was wrong, he was leaning against the wall and blood was dripping from his arm,
'DONNIE' Raph shouted as he flew through the crowd of mad machines and picked Donnie up,
'C'mon bro, lets get you out' Raph said soflty to his brother, Leo tried to clear a path for them as he used his Katanas to slice at the metal,
'COME ON GUYS WE NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE!' Leo shouted as Raph and Don passed through the door, Leo ran towards Mikey and grabbed his wrist,
'Come on we need to leave now' He said to his brother as they ran towards the lair door. Raph pushed the buttons at the side of the door to try and open it but it wouldn't co-opererate,
'Can't... it's mechanical... the powder...' Don said faintly, he was losing a lot of blood,
'Give up on the door, we need to take Donnie to the dojo to patch him up!' shouted Leo, he was trying to act brave but inside he was panicking,
'Why the dojo?' asked Raph as they ran towards the Dojo,
'Because it's the only place that doesn't have electronics!' Leo repied as they ran in, Mikey grabbed the bandages that were in the cupboard and took a look at Don's shoulder, He grimaced at what he saw, there was a screwdriver sticking out of the shoulder and Mikey pulled it out and passed it to Leo,
'Oh my god' Leo said quietly as he looked at the screwdriver,
'That must of hurt' Raph couldn't look there was way too much of his little brother's blood on it for his liking,
'There' Mikey said as he finished bandaging Donnies shoulder,
'Thanks Mikey' Donnie said weakly,
'You know we can't stay in here' Raph said as he sat down next to Donnie,
'Why not?' Leo repied as he leaned against the wall 'We haven't got much of a choice'
'We don't have food or water' Raph replied and Mikey pulled his nunchucks out,
'i'll grab some, i'll be faster than you two' Mikey said as he made his way towards the door,
'No way Mikey, it's too dangerous' Leo growled as he leapt up, he couldn't let his brother be killed by a rogue machine,
'It'll be ok Leo i'll be quick' and with that Mikey sprinted out the door and towards the kitchen, they heard the machine leap into life as their victim ran past them.
They only had to wait a few minutes then Mikey ran back in panting,
'Mikey are you ok?' Leo asked as he looked over his brother,
'Yea i'm fine... that was scary though.' Mike replied as he placed the bundles of food and water neatly at the back of the dojo,
'Uh oh' they heard Donnie say, they turned around to see thier Father standing in front of them,
'Father?' Leo asked 'is that you?' He couldn't believe it, it was too good to be true!
'You could have saved me' Splinter said angrily as he floated in front of his sons,
'wha-what?' Raph replied shocked by what his father was saying,
'YOU COULD HAVE SAVED ME! YOU ARE WORTHLESS! I WISH I HAD NEVER KEPT YOU!' Splinter shouted with anger, Mikey started to cry and Leo and Raph held him tight, Then Splinter floated towards Donnie,
'LEAVE HIM ALONE SENSEI!' Shouted Leo,
'It's all your fault' Splinter said quietly to Donatello,
'What?' Donnie said quietly
'Your stupid, useless inventions caused my death Donatello, You think you are so smart. But you are not, you are nothing, IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!' Donnie felt like daggers had been sent through his heart and started to cry as his
fathers figure disapeared,
'Donnie don't believe him, it's not true.' Leo said softly to Donnie who was now crying into Mikey's shoulder,
'Donnie it's not your fault' Raph said quietly to him as he placed a hand on his shoulder,
'No way was that the real Splinter' Mikey whispered to his brothers.
Donnie's heart was aching at his fathers words, It was all my fault... He thought to himself. He helped his brothers make some rugs into a huge bed, none of them wanted to sleep alone though Leo and Raph would never admit it. As they cuddled together in a pile they fell asleep one by one until just Donnie was left awake and as he drifted of into sleep he knew his fathers words would haunt him forever.
Well that's the end of chapter 2. please review xx (lol that rhymed!)
