This was a fun chapter to write!
Remember, I'm not cool enough to own TMNT
Chapter 28
Coplan smiled, "This is going to be good" He claimed.
They stood still, watching Coplan, waiting for the perfect opportunity. Then Raph broke formation, sprinting toward Coplan. Soon they all followed, Raph stuck out his sai and aimed to trick him. He swung it toward his stomach, then turned around and went to stick it in his head. Coplan ducked and kneed Raph's stomach. Mikey swung his nun chucks and managed to strike Coplan in the arm, while Coplan was focused in Mikey, Don ran up and kicked him in the back of the knee, causing him to hit the ground.
While on the ground, Leo tightened the grip on his sword and swung it down, impaling him through the chest. They all watched in suspense, then saw Coplan exhale and close his eye. Not moving.
But they knew, Leo grabbed his sword, "Finish him already" Don shouted.
Then a large ball of black smoke shot out and hit Don, sending him through the air and hitting a car. "Don!" Raph shouted, Coplan jumped up and grabbed Leo's neck, launching him in Mikey's direction and causing both Leo and Mikey to fly through the air and land hard on the ground. Raph quickly jumped out of the way of the smoke ball and jumped toward him, placing one good fist into Coplan's jaw. Coplan rebounded and swung his smoke arm at Raph, he ducked and kicked Coplan's knee, breaking his ACL, Coplan looked down at his oddly proportioned knee, and then laughed. Raph saw Coplan take his leg and snap it back into place.
"That's impossible" Raph muttered. He jumped up and ran at Coplan, going for the tackle. But Coplan dissolved into smoke and Raph landed on his hands and knees. Coplan reappeared behind him and kicked Raph, causing him to run into a car, hitting his nose hard.
In anger he tossed one of his sai at Coplan. It struck him in the leg, Coplan chuckled and grabbed the sai, sliding it out of his skin.
He held it up and threw it at Raph, Raph didn't have time to process what was happening, his instincts caused his arm to fly up in front of his face, and then he felt a sharp pain in his palm. He yelped and noticed the sai had penetrated his palm.
"NO!" Don shouted as he slammed is Bo staff down and launched himself toward Coplan, kicking him in the chest and forcing him to the ground. He twirled his Bo staff around his fingers and swung the end at Coplan, hitting his head like a golf ball. Coplan grunted in anger and jerked his foot up, kicking Don in the groin. Coplan turned around on the ground and swung his foot up, but Don maneuvered out of the way and grabbed his foot, rose it up and slammed his foot down on his genitals. Coplan screamed and Don twisted his foot hard and slammed it on the ground.
"Take that you son of a bitch" Don muttered, he looked around and saw Leo trying to help Mikey up and Raph holding his hand in pain.
Don heard a noise, looked down and watched Coplan stand up and run to a car. "Where are you going" Don muttered and ran after him. Coplan opened the car door and tore it off the hinges, and then swung it at Don.
Don felt an agonizing pain swish through his face. He fell to the ground and held his head in agony. Coplan walked up to him with the car door in hand and rose it up with his good hand.
"Time to die turtle" Coplan muttered.
He proceeded to slam it down just as Don saw Leo run to him and thrust his sword into Coplan's chest. Coplan dropped the car door and looked at Leo.
Leo then jumped in the air and drop kicked Coplan's face. Leo landed on the ground and ran to Don, "You ok?" He asked
"I…I just need a minute" Don stuttered.
Leo looked up, "Wait" Don said softly. Leo looked back down at Don, "Remember…Decapitate him…It's the only way to kill him". Leo nodded his head and saw Mikey helping Raph, "Mikey!" Leo shouted.
Mikey looked up and his face changed into fear, "Leo!" Mikey shouted, pointing to something behind him.
Leo looked back and saw two dark blades coming down on him, he quickly swung his swords up and blocked the blades from hitting him.
"DIE ALREADY!" Coplan screamed.
Leo then saw Mikey jump up and swing both nun chucks down on Coplan, causing him to stumble and fall to the ground. Mikey landed next to Leo and helped him up, they looked back and saw Raph helping Don. Leo then looked at Mikey and nodded. They both ran at Coplan, weapons at the ready. Coplan swung his hand and a ball of smoke flew out, hitting them both and making them fly through the air, landing hard on the car behind Raph and Don.
"You guys ok?" Raph asked quickly.
"We're good!" Mikey replied.
"This is getting tedious" They heard Coplan say.
They looked and saw the artifact floating in front of Coplan, "Time for a change in scenery" Coplan said, and then they were lost in a large and bright flash.
…..
Mikey opened his eyes, vision slightly blurry, he looked up and saw the familiar surroundings that have haunted him recently.
They were back in the city.
Then he heard the sound of pants and yelps in pain. He looked over and saw Leo and Raph fighting Coplan. Then Don's face entered his vision.
"You ok, bro?" Don asked.
"Yeah…Yeah I'm fine" Mikey said quickly, lifting himself up and following Don
Raph gripped his sai and slammed it down on Coplan's neck. Blood splattered all over his face as he tugged it out and went for the head. Coplan dissolved in thin air and reappeared a couple feet from them.
"Don!" Leo shouted, "You need to get to the artifact and take us home"
Don nodded and ran to the artifact, Coplan reappeared in front of Don and close lined him. Don fell hard on the ground, then saw Coplan go for the artifact.
"NO!" Leo shouted, grabbing one of Raph's sai's and launching it at Coplan. He dissolved into smoke as the sai passed him, then reformed and continued walking.
"Screw this" Raph said, then dashed pass Leo and toward Coplan. Just as Coplan bent over to pick up the artifact, Raph tackled him to the ground.
"Yes!" Leo shouted, he and Mikey ran toward Coplan and Raph and helped Raph.
"Don! Get to the artifact" Leo commanded.
Don scrambled up and ran to the artifact, wrapping his hands around it and fumbling with the control panel.
After a minute of rewiring the machine, he closed the panel and looked for the button. Looked up and saw Leo, Raph, and Mikey taking care of Coplan.
"Donatello" He heard a soft voice say.
He turned around and saw Scarlet standing near him, "Scarlet?" Don said in shock.
"Don't leave me here" Scarlet begged in a soft, angelic voice
"No…No you're not real" Don said
"Don" She said softly, brushing her hand against his bicep, "Don't be like that"
"No…" Don muttered, remembering the incident involving his tongue.
"Don" She said, getting closer to him
"Get away from me" Don shouted and pushed his out of the way
She looked at him in horror, "You bastard!" She shouted and swung her hand at him, digging her nails into his skin and slashing his face, leaving a nasty scar on his face.
Don looked at her in anger, swung his leg up and kicked her in the stomach, then smashed the artifact at her face. Causing her to fall to the ground.
Don turned around and ran to his brothers, "Guys! It's ready!" Don shouted.
Leo punched Coplan in the face and turned around, "Then let's get out of here" Leo said.
"DONNIE!" Scarlet screamed
The four of them looked and saw Scarlet running toward them.
"Who the hell is that?" Raph asked
"Don't worry about it, let's go" Mikey shouted
Don looked down and pushed the button, and then they all were drowned out in a bright flash.
…..
Leo opened his eyes, feeling sweat drip down his face. He looked up and saw he was back in the normal city. He saw his brothers stand up and look around. Then they all noticed the crowd of UFTU soldiers surrounding them, pointing their guns at them. One solider was holding their weapons.
"Shit" They heard Raph mutter, then they looked up and saw Coplan standing on a pile of cars.
"I'm sorry it had to end this way boys, but you know, let the best man win…and he did" Coplan said with a laugh.
"Oh you don't know how much I'm going to enjoy watching you guys die" Coplan added
Coplan looked around at all his soldiers.
"I'm sorry boys, but this is how it ends" Coplan smiled, but before I kill you all…I want to say something"
The four of them looked at him in hatred, "Donatello, I've noticed you've gotten very close with Scarlet" Coplan said
Don felt a sweat roll down his face; he looked around and saw Leo, Raph and Mikey were looking at him.
"You are the one who read my journal, is that right?" Coplan asked
Don looked at him, then slowly nodded his head.
"Then you should know what happened to the last son of a bitch who fu*ked around with my wife" Coplan said
Don's heart dropped, "What?"
"Someone's finally catching on" Coplan said with a smile
Don stared at Coplan in shock, Scarlet was Coplan's wife. Then he remembered city hall, seeing the picture of Scarlet hanging up with the word WHORE written on the paper underneath. Scarlet had an affair with Coplan and he killed her.
"Ok guys…Go ahead and finish them" Coplan commanded, then the four of them heard the sounds of guns clicking.
"I'm sorry guys" They heard Leo say
Mikey closed his eyes, and then felt a hand brush against, he quickly grabbed it and held onto it tightly. Raph felt his heart beating faster with every minute, then felt a hand grab his, looked down and saw Leo's hand in his. He looked up at his face and saw a tear running down Leo's face. Raph then looked at Don and grabbed his hand. They all head on to each other's hands tightly as there end came closer and closer.
"Finish them" Coplan said
"With pleasure" a UFTU solider said, then pointed it's gun at Coplan and fired, hitting him directly in the head, Don stared in shock. Then another UFTU solider pointed its gun at the other soldiers and quickly took them all down. Raph looked around franticly, confused.
Leo's eye's snapped open, he saw the soldiers quickly dropping to the floor. "What?" Mikey said, and then a solider grabbed its helmet and took it off.
"Casey!" Mikey shouted
"Go get that sick freak" Casey said
They looked and saw Coplan stand up in front of the car and pull out a pistol and begin firing.
"LEO!" They heard a soft voice say
Leo looked and saw April holding his swords then launch them in the air. Leo jumped up and grabbed them, then looked at Coplan. Everything seemed to go in slow motion, he kicked the ground behind him and began pushing himself toward him. He clenched his teeth and held the blade up in front of his face, seeing the bullet hit the blade and split in two. As the bullets rained near him, memories filled his head.
"Decapitate him…It's the only way to kill him" Don's voice traveled through his head. Then he heard the sound of his father's voice.
"Leonardo…You must be the one to stop this, you are our only hope" Splinters voice traveled through Leo, causing a tear to fall out of Leo's eye.
He felt anger boil up as He raised the other blade and cut another bullet in midair. As he cut one more bullet with his sword, he screamed, jumped up in the air and slammed his sword down on his hand, perfectly slicing Coplan's hand from the arm.
The pistol dropped to the floor as Coplan looked at his handless arm.
"YOU DIDN'T!" Coplan screamed
Leo tightened the grip on his sword, and then swung the blade thought Coplan's neck, disconnecting the head from his shoulders.
Then he lifted his leg and kicked Coplan's body, making his body fall back and his head fly up into the air, then Leo took the sword and as the head fell down Leo swung his sword upward, slicing the head in midair, causing one part fly left and the other fly right. Then as both sides of the head hit the ground, Leo exhaled.
He dropped his swords, looking at the headless body of Coplan, not moving. He stood there, waiting for something to happen, but nothing did. Leo turned and faced his brothers, April and Casey, "It's over…Coplan is dead" Leo said
He saw his brother's faces turn from fear to joy as Mikey shouted, wrapping his arms around Don and Raph. Leo smiled, seeing his brothers happy. Then he heard the sound of voices whispering. Looked up and saw people begin to crowd around, staring at them.
Don and Raph soon noticed and quickly made Mikey stop, "Oh no" Mikey said softly
Leo watched the people as they stared in shock and awe at the four turtles. Then suddenly, there whispered turned to cheers and shouts. They all started clapping and cheering them. Leo looked at his brothers and saw that they didn't know what to do as well. Then Leo heard people shouting stuff from the crowd.
"You saved us all!"
"You're our hero's"
"Who are these brave creatures?"
"They saved the city"
