Chapter 8
"FREEZE"
"Put your hands on your heads"
"What is that?"
"Are those turtles?"
"Put your hands on your head or we will use force"
"They're not human"
"What are they"
Leo stood, frozen in fear. Leo could already see what was going to happen. They were going to arrest them, take them to a science lab somewhere and have them dissected. No, they couldn't go that easily. He examined his surroundings, there was no way he and Raph were going to get through the crowd, there was a door next to them, maybe it had a window, they would be able to jump out and escape. It seems to easy, but there was really no other choice.
"Leo?" Raph said quietly
"It talked!"
"Sh*t" Raph muttered
"It cursed!"
Leo made a quick move, grabbing Raph's bicep, opening the door and running inside. Leo slammed the door and locked it.
"Leo!"
Leo looked around to room for anything they could use to block the door.
"Raph grab that chair"
Raph looked, grabbed the chair and gave it Leo. Leo put it under the handle and pushed it to the floor, making it stick. Leo stepped back and took a deep breath.
"Leo we can't stay here" Raph said
"I know"
"That damn doctor has gone far enough…You do realize that if they catch us then we're dead" Raph said
"Not really helping" Leo said running to the window, "Damn…There's cops everywhere"
"I don't think they know were here"
"The one's in the hall do" Leo said
"I meant the one's outside"
There was a large slam, Leo and Raph looked at the door and saw a large crack running down the middle.
"Sh*t Leo they almost in"
"I know I know" Leo looked around for anything, He looked outside to see if there were clear routes to a sewer duct, there were really no way. They were trapped.
Another large slam.
"Leo"
Leo looked everywhere, then a idea shot up to him. He looked up at the ceiling and saw the acoustic ceiling tiles.
"Up here" Leo shouted, then jumped up onto the bed. He slid out his sword and used the butt to push up on the board, he slid it to the side and put back his sword.
"Up there?" Raph asked
"Do you see any other option" Leo said
Raph quickly looked out the window, then at the door. "Fine"
Raph took Leo's hand he stood up on the bed, he pulled himself up into the ceiling.
"Leo hurry" Raph said, carefully crawling away
Leo lifted himself into the ceiling, he slid the board back in its spot and stayed for a second. He began following Raph until they bother heard a large slam, they broke through the door.
"Wait…shh" Leo said
They both stopped and listened.
"Where did they go?"
"They couldn't have just disappeared"
"Search the perimeter"
"Leo" Raph said quietly, "We need to move"
Leo looked down at the board his hand was on and saw it begin to crack. He moved it to another and slowly started to crawl.
"This way" Raph said quietly, turning to the right.
Leo stopped, swearing he heard something. He looked down and saw that the board crack.
"Leo" Raph said quietly, "These board aren't the strongest, we need to keep moving"
Leo looked up and continued to follow Raph, after a couple minutes if crawling in silence, Raph spoke. "Leo what are we going to do, the cops saw us they know about us, we're going to be all over the news"
"Raph I would kind of like to focus on just getting away from them now" Leo said quietly
"But they saw us already, our existence in known"
"Well when we get out of here and take down Coplan and get Don and Mikey back…Then we'll get out of town"
"Move out? But New York is our home" Raph stated
"Well It hasn't seemed like home recently…We could go to Chicago…That's a big city…Or maybe Los Angeles"
"I guess"
The silence returned after that, the sound of quiet cracks could be heard. Leo swore he could hear footsteps. He stopped and strained his ears. Ok…maybe he didn't hear footsteps. But the cracks grew louder.
"Leo there's a vent over there, we should be able to get out through their"
Leo looked up at him, he was further away. Leo began to follow him, a little more faster so he could catch up with Raph. He then felt the board his knee's where on give away and break. His knee's fell through the ceiling and his legs hung down. When he noticed he was falling, he yelped and grabbed on a nearby pipe. Raph quickly looked back.
"Leo!" Raph yelled
"Go!" Leo screamed
Then the other board gave away and he fell heard onto the ground. Leaving a large hole in the ceiling.
"What was that?"
"I think it came from that room"
Leo shot up and looked around. He ran to the door and opened it. He was away from the crowd, but three cops were walking to the door, they pulled out there guns.
"FREEZE"
There was no other option, Leo slammed the door and began spiriting down the hall.
"SUSPECT ON THE MOVE" A cop yelled
"Fire at will" He heard the voice over the radio say
His heart dropped, He heard three large bangs as he turned the corner. He couldn't run forever, and he couldn't fight cops. So he continued to run. He saw a bullet impact the wall near him. He ignored it and continued to run.
Then he heard a large bang and felt a agonizing pain in his calf. He stopped and looked down at his calf, seeing a bullet wound with blood running down it. He looked up at the cops who were still on his tail, he couldn't give up.
He continued to sprint down the hall way, he turned the corner and his heart sank. The hall was crowded with swat soldier, he turned around and saw the three cops pointing the guns at him.
'Oh no' he thought
Then he felt a sharp pain in his side, the pain soon turned to agonizing pain. He fell to the ground and screamed, feeling as more and more electricity was being pumped into his system. Then it stopped and he rested on the ground, numb. He saw a swat soldier walk up to him carrying a machine gun, then he changed his position on the gun and slammed the butt of his weapon down on Leo, knocking him out.
