Sup, ya'll?! This chapter is where things get interesting! Hope you like! The months in Sukari's pregnancy are gonna go kinda fast. She's five months pregnant in this chapter.

Donny walked from his science class to his locker to collect his math book. While Sukari was told to stay home, he and his brothers still went to school.

He suddenly felt someone behind him and turned to see Amy Hart. She was standing there with her hands clasped in front of her and staring at him sweetly. Donny pushed his glasses up with his index finger and turned to her.

"Hi, Donny," Amy said, "how are you?"

"Fine," Donny said, flatly. He looked at her suspiciously. "What do you want? Do you need the science homework, or something?" Amy giggled.

"No, silly," she said. "I just thought I'd come to talk to you. We never get to talk or hang out."

"That's probably because you tend to avoid talking to nerds because of your precious reputation," Don said as he rolled his eyes. Amy cleared her throat.

"I'm sorry about that," she said with a sad little tinge in her voice. She looked at him again with her blue eyes and smiled again. "I just wanna get to know you, Donatello. You're such a sweet guy." Donny rolled his eyes again in impatience.

"Cut the crap, Amy. What do you really want?" Amy frowned and her eyes narrowed as they moved to something behind Donny. He turned and came face-to-face with Josh Mason and his friends. "Shit."

"Hey, Donny," Josh said before his fist flew into Donny's temple, knocking him flat out. Donny fell, unconscious, at their feet. Josh's friends hoisted him up and carried him away to the school shed, which had walls so thick that no one could hear even the loudest scream from inside there.

…

"Nini! Wren! You guys need to feel this!" cried Sukari. She was in her bedroom when she had suddenly felt something fluttering in her extended stomach. Nini and Wren ran into Sukari's room with worry written all over their faces. They didn't expect to see Sukari smiling and feeling her stomach. "The baby's kicking."

Nini smiled and walked over to her, putting her hand over the spot. When she felt the kick, she beamed so brightly and wrapped her arms around her baby sister. Wren came over and felt it too. She smiled and patted Sukari's back.

"Sukari," Nini said, "I'm so happy for you."

"I can't wait until Raph gets home," Sukari said. "He'll be so happy."

…

Donny woke up to see Josh in front of him, staring with a look of bitter hatred. Behind him were Amy and his friends. Don noticed that he was sitting and his hands and feet were tied to the chair.

Calmly, he studied his surroundings and noticed that he was in the school shed. Knowing what that meant, he looked back at Josh and glared a little. He said nothing.

"How ya doin', Donny?" Josh asked.

"Been better," Donny replied casually. Josh smirked and turned to Amy.

"Go wait for me in da school, babe. I won't be long," he said with a small smile. Amy giggled and planted a kiss on his lips. Don crooked an eyebrow at this and waited patiently for Amy to pull away from Josh. She walked out, moving her hips as she left. Josh watched her with interest and turned back to Donny.

"I see you got over Sukari quickly," Donny said once he and Josh were alone. Josh's eyes darkened slightly and he walked over to where Don was sitting. He towered over him and Don stared with a glare.

"Speakin' of Sukari," Josh said, "where is she?"

"Who?" Donny asked slyly. Josh gritted his teeth.

"Where is Sukari?" he asked as calmly as he could. Donny smiled.

"How would I know?" he asked. Josh let his hand fly and he smacked Donny with all his might. Donny's face exploded in pain and his glasses fell off of his face. He could no longer see what was in front of him. This, he knew, was the perfect time to panic. He heard shuffling around the room.

"Did ya know I got promoted in da Purple Dragons?" Josh asked as he took out a bag and dumped out a taser, a whip, a buck knife, and his gun. "I'm da new torture expert." Donny heard this and gulped. It was weird that Josh was actually intimidating, but he was and that terrified Donny. Josh picked up the taser and walked over to Donny. "One fun thing about torture is knowing what scares da person in question. Did ya know dat about fifty percent of da pain durin' torture is fear? Ya can't see. Let's see how dat works out." Josh ripped Donny's shirt open, showing his chest. With a sadistic smile, he put the taser on Don's chest and fired off 1,000 watts of electricity. Donny yelped and struggled against it. Josh took it away from him after a minute and smiled. "How ya feelin' now?" Donny cringed and groaned.

"I'm n-not gonna tell you where Sukari is," he said. Josh smirked and cranked the taser up to 12,000.

"Are ya sure?" Josh asked as he put the tip of the taser in the same spot. Donny flinched, but nodded and glared. Josh pushed the button and Donny screamed in searing pain. Josh finally turned it off and Don clenched his teeth at the sting from the bruise on his chest. Josh decided that the taser wasn't going to be enough. He got the knife and put the side of it on Don's cheek. Donny, knowing what it was, sucked in a sharp breath and his heart rate went up. "Don't be dumb, Donny. Either ya start talkin', or ya gonna have quite da tough time gettin' a girlfriend." Don pulled away from the knife and spit right in Josh's eye. Even blind, he still had a ninja's aim.

"Fuck you!" he said angrily. Josh wiped it away calmly and, without hesitation, slashed Donny's right arm from the shoulder to the elbow, luckily not hitting a vein. Donny cried out in pain and pulled against the ropes.

Josh held the bloody knife and stared at Donatello for a moment. He was curious to how much pain Donny could endure. Josh finally decided that he had to take a new approach. He got out his cell phone and called his friend, Joey.

"What's up, Josh?" Joey asked when he picked up.

"Hey, man," Josh replied. Donny looked up and crooked an eyebrow. "Listen; I need ya ta find Mikey Hamato and bring him in here. Don needs a new means of persuasion." Donny's eyes widened and he pulled against the ropes again.

"No!" he cried at Josh. "You're not gonna touch him!"

"Okay, Josh. We'll be there in a few minutes." Josh smiled and hung up. Donny was shaking with anger.

"Ya brought dis on yourself, Don," Josh said. He put the knife down and picked up Donny's glasses and put them over Donny's eyes. Don looked up at Josh once he could see and glared with burning hatred.

…

"Leo!" Raph called. Leo turned around from his locker and looked at Raph. "Ya seen Donny anywhere? He wasn't in English and he won't answer his shell-cell." Leo crooked an eyebrow. It wasn't like Donny to skip a class. He pulled out his phone and called Mikey, thinking Donny was with him. Mikey finally picked up.

"Mike, are you with Donny?"

"Hey, Leo," said a voice that made Leo grit his teeth. He heard Josh chuckle on the other line. "I thought I'd hang with ya brothers today. Don't worry. As long as they behave, I won't hurt them too badly."

"You keep your hands off of them, you son of a bitch," Leo hissed into the phone. "Let me talk to Mikey."

"Dat's not really a good idea," Josh said. "Mikey's lips are a little too swollen right now for him ta talk ta anyone."

"You bastard," Leo said. Raph gave him a questioning look and Leo mouthed who it was. Raph's mood suddenly darkened as he grabbed the phone.

"Where the fuck are ya, ya fuckin' prick?" he growled.

"Hey Raph; long time, no see. How's da bitch?" Raph seethed and clenched the phone in his hand.

"Where are ya?!" he screamed, drawing attention from some students in the hallway. He served them all a death glare and they scattered.

"School shed," Josh replied. "Come alone and I'll let ya annoyin' little brothers go. Dat means Leo stays behind. You and I got unfinished business." Raph nodded and agreed.

"I gotta go, Leo."

…

"The guys sure are taking a long time to come home," Sukari said, looking at the clock. She, Nini, and Wren were in her bedroom painting each other's claws and laughing at all the ridiculous colors. Sukari was so used to black that she thought the neon pink just looked silly.

"I'm sure they're probably just stuck in New York's famous traffic," Nini replied, showing off bright orange and making Sukari chuckle.

"They would have found a way around it. They usually do."

"Maybe they're in a fight or on a training run," Wren said. She attempted at the purple, finding it quite ironic in her situation, and ended up rubbing off. She realized that her talents did not lie in painting nails.

"If it was a training run, they would have stopped here for their weapons," Sukari said with worry in her voice. She felt the something was wrong.

"Try connecting with Raphael," Nini said, tapping Sukari's temple. Sukari nodded and pushed with her mind.

'Raphael?'

'Not da best time, Sukari,' Raphael replied.

'Where are you? You didn't pick up your cell phone.'

'Baby, just stay off da line for a few minutes, okay? I got somethin' ta do.' He closed his mind and Sukari got worried. Raph sounded mad at something.

"Nini, he hung up on me," she said. Nini crooked an eyebrow and touched Sukari's forehead, letting herself into her mind. She found the conversation and worked her way into Raph's mind. She saw what was happening. Josh had the barrel of a handgun shoved into Mikey's mouth and his hand on the trigger. Donny was yelling at Josh in anguish, knowing that Josh had no problem taking Michelangelo's life. Raph stood there with his hands up in anger and got on his knees.

The connection got a little fuzzy and Nini let go of Sukari's head. Sukari gasped and held her head dizzily. She had seen the whole thing and her fear was replaced with fury. That fucker had no right to threaten Mikey. Wren looked at both of them in confusion.

"Wren," Sukari said with her fangs shown, "stay here with Master Splinter. Nini and I have something to do."

"Sukari," Nini said, getting up and putting her trench coat on, "you're staying here too."

"No!" Sukari cried, jumping up. "Raphael is my mate! I won't let him get hurt."

"I'll make sure he doesn't," Nini said. She put her hat on and hid her tail under the coat. "I won't be long. You're pregnant and Joshua would take full advantage of that. Stay here and stay safe." Sukari stared at her sister for a few minutes before giving up and sitting back down. Nini walked out and headed for the school.

…

(A few minutes before Sukari connected)

Joey Carr had a struggling Mikey in his grasp as he made his way to the shed. When he got there, he threw Mikey onto the floor and left. Mikey scrambled to his feet only to be taken down again by a punch in the mouth from Josh. Mikey cried out and lay on his back with his hand over his mouth. Say what you wanted about Josh, but he had on hell of a solid punch.

Donny watched and was getting more and more pissed the longer his brother was on the ground. Josh looked down at Mikey without pity and rammed his foot into his stomach. Mikey's breath escaped his lungs and he coughed. Josh picked Mikey up by his shirt and threw him onto a stool against the wall. Mikey yelped in pain as Josh grabbed a fistful of his hair and yanked it back and held a knife to Mikey's throat. Mikey struggled, making Josh tighten his grip and reveal a drop of blood emerge from the tip of the blade. Josh stared Donny down.

"Start talkin'," he said. Donny gulped as Mikey stared at him. "Tell me where Sukari is." Mikey snorted suddenly, earning a glance from Josh. "What?"

"Dude," Mikey said in an amused voice, "Sukari is way out of your league. Haven't you ever heard of the book, 'She's Just Not That Into You'?" He laughed and Josh put his knife down and grabbed his gun instead. Donny panicked and struggled in his bonds harder.

"Ya got a really big mouth, ya know dat?" Josh said in annoyance. "If ya don't shut up, I'll take care of dat." Mikey felt the gun against his cheek and gulped.

"I'm not the only one," he said under his breath. Josh heard it and rammed his knee into Mikey's mouth, making it swell and bleed.

The door suddenly got kicked open and a very pissed off Raphael stood in the doorway. He glared at Josh and started inside, but Josh grabbed Mikey's jaw suddenly, forced his mouth open, and shoved the gun inside with his finger on the trigger. Donny yelled at Josh, pleading him to let Mikey go.

"Get down!" Josh shouted at Raph, who just stood there glaring, not knowing what to do. Josh locked the gun in warning. Raph put his hands up and got on his knees with his eyes on the deranged blonde. Josh let go of Mikey and cut the ropes on Donny's bonds. Donny grabbed Mikey and the two got in the corner, where Josh had directed them. His gun remained pointed straight at Mikey.

"Leave them alone, Josh," Raph said with gritted teeth. "Dis is between us." Josh looked back at him and walked over to him. He stared down at Raph and, with a grunt of effort, raised his foot and kicked Raph's jaw. Raph cried out and fell onto his back. Before Raph could make a counter-attack, Josh had the gun pointed at Mikey and Donny again.

"If ya make any movement dat I didn't give permission for, I'll shoot them both," Josh said with an insane smile. "I've got four bullets in dis gun, and I'm a damn good shot. Don't piss me off." Raph stared up at him and, for the first time, he was scared. He didn't show it, though. "Stand up," Josh commanded. Raph hesitated, but he stood slowly, holding the rubber burn on his chin. Josh, taking his advantage, kicked Raph's stomach and, when Raph doubled over, punched his face. Raph fell to his side and rolled onto his stomach. He spit out some blood from his cheek and held his stomach in pain. Josh took a step and, with great force, kicked Raph's ribs.

Pain exploded through Raph's torso as he remembered when Josh had broken six of his ribs and was pushing on them. For a moment, Raph couldn't breathe. He finally gasped for air and growled in pain.

Donny and Mikey watched as Josh tortured their brother, but they could do nothing. Donny's arm hurt too badly and Mikey was too scared. Mikey was holding onto Donny as some tears fell from his eyes. Donny pet Mikey's head in comfort, but he was scared too. He couldn't bear watching his brothers getting hurt, and Josh was relentless.

"Stand up!" Josh barked at Raphael. Raph coughed and some blood fell from his mouth. Reluctantly, he stood with his eyes on his brothers. He saw how terrified they were and he glared at Josh again. Josh smirked brought his fist back and crashed it into Raph's nose. Josh grabbed Raph's head and his knee collided into Raph's face. Raph cried out in agony and Josh threw him down. Raph lay unmoving on his back. He was breathing heavily as he looked to the side and stared through puffy eyes at his brothers. Josh was going to kill him, he realized. He was just making him suffer first.

Mikey stared in terror at Raphael. Raph wasn't broken yet, but he looked to be on the way to it. Josh stood over Raph for a few moments before pointing the gun at his head.

"Ya have no idea how good dat felt," he said as he took dead aim between Raph's eyes. "Too bad ya couldn't say goodbye to ya little whore before ya got ya head blown da fuck off. I'll tell her personally dat ya said hi."

Mikey suddenly jumped out of Donny's arms and into the most dangerous place in the room: right between Josh's gun and Raph's head. Josh faltered in surprise and Raph's breath grew heavier and he put his hand on Mike's shoulder.

"M-Mik-ey," he said with difficulty, "don't."

"No," Mikey said. He looked up at Josh with both fear and warning. "Leave him alone! Sukari doesn't want you anymore! Let it go!" Josh gnashed his teeth and put his gun against Mikey's temple.

"Possibly da biggest fuck-up you've ever made, Mikey," he said as he prepared to pull the trigger. Mikey curled up and whimpered in fear and held his brother tightly as he heard the click.

A figure suddenly appeared in the doorway and tackled Josh. Mikey cried out in shock as Donny made his way over to his brothers. Leo suddenly ran in and over to his brothers.

"Come on!" he shouted. Donny grabbed Mikey's arm and pulled him outside. Leo picked Raph up gently and led him outside as Nini landed a few more punches to Josh's face.

"You hurt Sukari," she shouted, "and then you have the audacity to hurt her mate?! Who the fuck do you think you are?! Stay away from our family!" She landed one final knock-out punch and left Josh in a bloody unconscious heap on the floor. She met the guys outside and they made their way to the Battle Shell.

Leo laid Raph on the bed and tended to the minor wounds. Raph hissed as the hydrogen peroxide stung his scratches and burns. They soon got home and Leo hung Raph from his arm on his shoulder and led him and the others inside.

Sukari and Wren were watching iCarly and laughing at it when Sukari heard the guys and Nini come home. She saw the condition of her mate and jumped off the couch and over to him.

"Raph?! Baby, what happened?" She put her hands on his face and looked into his pain-filled eyes. She took him from Leo and led him to the couch and laid him down. She immediately began her healing process on his face. She got rid of his bruises, cuts, and burns from Josh's shoe. She put her hands on his chest and nuzzled. "My God, Raphael, are you okay?" Raph hugged her, but he pushed her off gently.

"Go heal Don and Mike," he said tiredly. Sukari nodded and walked over to Donny, seeing his ripped shirt and the large purple bruise. She put her palm over it and he cringed at the heat from her hand. When that was done, she moved to his arm and healed his cut, turning it into a faint scar. She then turned to Mikey and put her hand over his mouth and healed his lips. He licked them when they were done and wiped them with his sleeve.

"Dudette, that feels so weird," he said with a chuckle. Sukari smiled and hugged him and then Donny.

"I'm just glad you guys are okay," she said. Wren got up from the couch and walked over to Sukari. She whispered something in her ear that made Sukari turn her head towards Raphael in a snap. She walked over to him as the guys went off to do their own things and she sat next to him. "Wren, could you please go get some ibuprophen for me?" Wren nodded and ran off. When she was gone Sukari put her head on Raph's chest. He put his arms around her and held her tightly with his nose in her hair. "Josh did this, didn't he?" she asked, already knowing the answer. Raph nodded. "Baby, I'm so sorry." She suddenly thought of something that could lighten his mood. She put his hand on the spot on her stomach. "Feel this, honey," she said. Raph pushed his fingers into the spot gently and felt a little throb.

"Whoa!" he said. "What is dat?"

"The baby's been kicking all day," Sukari replied with a smile. Raph smiled excitedly too and hugged her again. She hugged him back and laughed in happiness. "Soon, Raph," she said, "only four more months." Raph rubbed her back and kissed her neck.

"Does dat mean I gotta get a job?" he asked, making Sukari laugh harder.

Raphie and Sukari are so freaking cute! Is it weird that I was listening to a funny song when I was writing the shed scenes? Oh, well, haha.

Question of the day: What is the most random scene you can see Sukari doing that has nothing to do with the plot-line?
