Amy gasped and her eyes flew open; she was laying in the sewers, the same spot that she had woken up in the nightmare. Oh please don't let this be a nightmare too! Amy prayed. Slowly, she sat up, seeing her crippled leg. Grabbing hold on one of the ladders leading to the surface, Amy heaved herself to her feet, carful to not put too much pressure on her other leg. Looking around, Amy noticed a body laying a couple feet from where she had woken up.

"Connor!" Amy gasped. She limped over to motionless body, relived to see he was still breathing and only unconscious. Amy grabbed his arm and put it around her shoulders. I have to find the guys… She thought weakly. Amy looked left, then right, trying to remember which way she had gone in the dream. It took her while, but she soon found the correct route.
When they had reached the subway tunnels, Amy felt light headed, stumbling over Connor's weight. She stopped for a moment to regain her balance before continuing.
As the lair came into site, Amy let out a sigh of relief to see no one was lying at the entrance. As they came closer, the sound of voice came from lair.

"…gone for hours! What if something happened to her?" It was Donnie's voice.

"Well I say good reddens." Raph said coldly.

"What if she got eaten by a Squirrelnoid?" Mikey gasped.

"Not helping Mikey!" Donnie growled.

"Calm down," This was Leo. "We'll go look for her. We'll split up, and-" He stopped talking as Amy walking through the entrance. They all looked at her with wide eyes. Donnie got up and took a step toward her.

"Amy..." He breathed.

Amy suddenly couldn't hold Connor's weight anymore and let him slip to the ground. "Help…" she whispered weakly as she began to fall over.

Donnie ran over and caught her. He picked her up and carried her to the couch, laying her down gently. "Amy, what happened?" His voice was filled with terror.

Amy coughed. "There was… a fire…" she began, but felt too tired to continue. She let her eyes close and began to fall asleep when Donnie shook her awake again.

"I need you to stay awake, okay?" It was obvious he was trying to keep his voice calm. "Can you do that?"

Amy nodded slowly, wincing. She held her leg in pain. Donnie saw too as his eyes filled with worry. "Stay awake, I'll get my first aid kit." He said, rushing off toward his lab.

"Uhh… Amy? Who's this?" Leo was kneeled down next to Connor.

Amy coughed. "He's my friend. The one we saw on the roof top's today. He was in the fire with me. I think he inhaled too much smoke and passed out."

"Great, another human who could give away our secret!" Raph muttered.

"I wasn't just going to let him die," Amy began coughing again.

Donnie came back out, his first aid kit in hand. He pulled something out; a liquid in a bottle. "I need to clean it with some alcohol, so it's going to sting a bit, okay?"

Amy nodded. Donnie screwed the lid off and put it on a wash cloth and put it on her leg. Amy gasped, holding back a scream from the pain. After a minute, it died away and her leg was neatly wrapped in bandages.

"Did it smell weird?" Donnie asked when he was finished.

"What?"

"The smoke. From the fire. Did it smell odd?"

Amy thought for a moment. "Now that you mention it, yeah. It did smell a bit weird." Amy coughed. "Why?"

"I think it might have been some kind of poison. I'll have to analyze it to be sure but-"

"Poison?" Amy repeated. She glanced at Connor. "Does that mean we'll…?"

"I don't think so." Donnie assured her as he went to check on Connor. "I think you'll both be just fine. Now how about you finish telling us what happened?"

Amy sighed, still feeling too weak to talk about what happened, but agreed anyway.

"…Then he brought the blade down on me. That's about the time I woke up." Amy coughed, finishing her story.

"Sorry about your father, Amy," Leo said gravely.

"I-It's okay…" Amy replied solemnly. She started to let her eyes close when Donnie snapped his fingers.

"Stay awake. I haven't studied it enough to know what will happen if you fall asleep."

Amy was about to complain but thought better of it. She glanced over to where Connor was lying on the floor to see him murmuring, though, still unconscious. He must be having the dreams too... Amy thought sadly. Suddenly he gasped, sitting up straight. Amy tried to sit up as well but Donnie put his hand on her shoulder, keeping her down.

Leo was next to Connor. "Take it easy." He told him calmly. "We're not gonna-"

Before he could finish, Connor kicked him away and leaped to his feet, stumbling a bit. "Where am I? Who are? What are you?" Connor looked around wildly. "Where's Amy?"

"Calm down, I'm right here." Amy grunted. "Now stop yelling."

Connor looked at Amy, his eyes darkening as he saw Donnie. "Get away from her." He clenched his fist and took a step forward.

Amy coughed, shaking her head. "Connor stop, it's alright. They're the… friends I was talking about at the house."

Connor hesitated, not convinced.

Amy rolled her eyes, introducing him to the turtles. Once she was finished, she let out another coughing fit.

Connor took a step forward. "Are you alright?"

Amy nodded, still coughing. "Yeah, I'm Fine."

Connor didn't look convinced but sighed. "How did we get here anyway? The last thing I remember, we were on the rooftops. You… You fell off and…" His voice trailed off.

Amy smiled, her eyes heavy. "It's okay… It was just a nightmare… I had one too…" She let her eyes close, too tired to hold them open anymore.

Donnie sighed. "Fine I guess you can sleep now."

Amy opened her eyes to look at Connor one last time, just to remind herself he was okay. She smiled then closed her eyes, immediately falling asleep.
