Ch 10 The Trap.
Donnie, Raph and Mikey ran along the rooftops, jumping and running at top speed in hopes of getting to their brother before anything horrible happened to him.
"Why do think Tiger Claw took Leo?" Mikey asked.
"Who knows." Raph answered, anger evident in his voice. "This is the foot we're dealing with, who knows why they do anything?"
"I've got Leo's signal, it's up ahead somewhere among those warehouses." Donnie said pointing to a small cluster of buildings in the distance.
Using the t-phone as a guide, the three brothers made their way to one of the smaller warehouses closest to the water. They quickly and quietly made their way in through a broken window on the side of the building.
"According to the signal, we're practically right on top of him." Donnie whispered as they looked around.
The three turtles wandered through the warehouse for only a few minutes before they heard a banging noise. They looked up in time to see boards coming down on all the windows of the warehouse blocking out the sun. They ran to the windows and doors and found them all locked. They ran from one exit to another only to find each of their way out locked or barred.
"I don't believe it!" Raph yelled out, banging on one of the doors . "It's a trap."
"Guys!" Donnie cried out over by some boxes stacked neatly from the floor to ceiling. "I found Leo's cell."
"That's great Donnie." Raph sneered. "But unless you plan on using his phone to dial us out of here, that's useless information."
Donnie gave Raph an annoyed look. "There's a timer on the phone Raph." He told him hurriedly. "I think it's a bomb!"
"Can you disarm it D?" Mikey asked him bouncing around nervously on his tip toes.
"I don't know." He began exploring the phone. "I'll do what I can, you keep trying to find Leo and a way out."
Raph and Mikey continued to run from one end of the warehouse to the other in hopes of finding someway out and some sign of their brother. After several minutes of nothing, they met back by Donnie.
"Any luck D?" Mikey asked, he was shaking and almost in tears.
Donnie shook his head. "No." He sounded exasperated. "There are no wires and the bomb is encased in a steel casing that has no sign of entry point." He looked at his brothers, sweat pouring from his forehead. "I'm trying but I don't think I can disarm it in time." He whispered.
"Well you got to keep trying Donnie!" Raph almost shouted.
"I've been trying Raph!" Donnie shouted right back. "But unless you know of some magic way to get into this box without the setting off the bomb..."
"Guys." Mikey cut off their arguing and put himself in between his two brothers. "Now is not the time." He said pointing to the timer. It now showed fifty seconds till detonation. "You tried Donnie." Mikey said as he took his brother in his arms. "That's all we can ask."
Raph wrapped his arms around his two brothers. "I'm sorry Donnie." He said trying to fight back the tears, the end seemed evident.
"Me too." Donnie whispered back.
They turned to look at the bomb. "We only have twenty seconds." Raph whispered.
They held each other tighter, shaking and tears flowing. "I love you guys." Mikey whispered. The others echoed the phrase.
They waited with bated breath, expecting the bomb to go off any moment when a familiar horn sounded from outside the warehouse.
"The Shellraiser!" Mikey exclaimed as the vehicle rammed through the door causing it to shatter. .
"Need a lift?" Casey smiled from the driver seat as the three turtles quickly scramble inside.
"GO GO GO GO!" Donnie screamed as Casey put the pedal to the metal and drove out of the door he just came through as the bomb began going off behind them.
Casey drove a few miles away before stopping. The four boys stared at each other and let out relive sighs and almost collapsed in exhaustion at the thought of almost being blown up.
From behind them, they could hear the bomb still going off and the sound of sirens in the distance told them the emergency vehicles were on their way. They needed to get out of there before they were spotted.
"How'd you know where to find us Case?" Raph asked.
Casey smiled wide, showing his gab teeth. "Splinter and April." He told them proudly, putting the vehicle in drive..
"As much as I hate to say this Casey." Donnie looked at him somewhat embarrassed. "We owe you one."
"Yeah!" Mikey clapped him on the shoulder. "Nice save."
"Did you find anything to help you find Leo?" Casey asked as he drove through the streets of New York.
"No, it was a trap and there was nothing that could tell us where Leo was." Raph responded, his eyes casting downward, disappointment shown in them as the same thought ran through each of the brothers minds. What had happened to Leo and where was he? But more importantly, was Leo still alive?
"So where to now?" Mikey asked, looking at his brothers and Casey.
"Only one other place I can think of." Donnie said.
Casey put the Shellraiser in gear and turn the vehicle around.
