"Woo home free!" Mikey celebrated as we reached the Shellrazer and climbed in.
"Mikey come here." Donnie ordered. "Sit down."
Mikey nodded and sat down. Donnie then gently placed me down, resting my head on Mikey's lap.
"I'm going to get some of the glass out. Ok?" He asked me just as we begun moving.
"Um Ok." I said as I looked up at Mikey.
"Ok." Donnie said and grabbed his first aid kit. "Leo keep her steady."
"I'll try." Leo said as he drove.
"Don't you think you should wait until we get back?" Raph asked as Donnie pulled out a pair of tweezers.
"No its better to get the glass out before it goes any deeper." Donnie said as he held my left leg steady. "Eclips its ok." Donnie said in a clam voice. I knew he could feel me shaking.
"Yeah I know." I said closing my eyes as he picking the first bit of glass out of my leg.
"So did you miss us?" Mikey asked trying to keep my mind off Donnie.
"No." I said plainly.
"Aw come on you must have missed me."
I shook my head.
"Come on tell the truth." Mikey leaned closer to me.
"Mikey shut up." My voice began to crack as I began to remember how much I did miss them.
"Don't lie t-
"Mikey leave her alone." Raph said.
"Ow!" I yelped.
"Sorry my bad." Donnie said as he rubbed my leg with a cloth. "Um I'll leave your leg for now." Donnie said as he moved up and grabbed my hand. "Wow." Donnie said as he examined my palm and reached in to pick a big shard of glass out. "You certainly could have smashed the glass into smaller bit." He said holding it.
Suddenly the Shellrazer was hit and swerved to the right. "Ahhh." Mikey screamed, he held me still, but Donnie fell backwards.
"Raph get that Krang off us!" Leo yelled.
"You got in fearless." Raph said as he began firing.
"You guys ok?" Leo asked not looking back.
"Yeah, Eclips and I are good. Donnie?" Mikey said.
"Ah ow, ow, ow" Donnie said sitting up.
"Donnie!" My eyes started to water as I saw the glass shard had sliced his right arm opened.
"Shell Leo Donnie's hurt!" Mikey said running to the front.
"It's ok." Donnie said holding his arm as blood began to drip from it. "J-just a scratch." He smiled slightly.
"Got them!" Raph celebrated. "Leo get us back now."
"Ok. Raph help Donnie, Mikey go back and hold Eclips." Leo ordered.
Mikey nodded and ran back to me, he picked me up and sat down on his seat holding me on his lap.
"Raph I'm fine, I can handle it." Donnie said.
"No you're not, let me help."
"Ow Raph!"
We finally got back to the lair, Donnie had finally given in to Raph after Raph sat on him for 5 minutes. "You could have wrapped it better." Donnie complained.
"Well you could have sat still for me." Raph shot.
Donnie just poked his tongue at him.
Leo smiled as he carried me out. "Sensei we're back!" He called.
April and Casey came running out of the Dojo and Splinter followed behind.
"Oh my god Donnie what happened?" April asked running up to him.
"Oh H-hi April. Oh this it's nothing." He said nervously.
"Wow Eclips you look like crap." Casey said walking to me.
"Gee thanks." I said sarcastically.
"Nar it's good to see you anyway." He smiled at me.
"Yes it is." Splinter said grabbing one of my hands. "Come put her down on the couch, I'll remove the glass." Splinter said.
Leo nodded and sat me on the couch before sitting next to me. Donnie went into the lab with Raph, Casey and April. Mikey went into the kitchen and came back with some water.
Splinter removed the last piece of glass and begun to wash the blood from my legs. I hadn't spoken to him since we returned.
"There." Splinter said as he put the cloth back and grabbed a pack of band aids.
"Don't" I moaned.
"I know they're not deep but they need to be covered." He said sticking the first band aid on my leg.
I moved my leg away when he went to put the next one on. "Eclips." He said strongly as he grabbed my leg. "Please sit still."
I sighed and did what he said as Leo then began to wrap my palms.
"Looks like you need a new mask." Splinter said.
I touched the skin under my eye to feel for my mask but it was gone. "I didn't notice it was gone." I said quietly.
"Oh I got her one!" Casey said bursting in. "I made it when you first came, but Splinter bait me to it."
"Beat." Splinter corrected him.
"It's back at my place I can get it for you tomorrow." Casey said ignoring Splinter.
"Knowing you it will be covered in skulls." Donnie said.
"No it's not." Casey said.
"Then what's it look like?" Leo asked.
"I'll surprise you." Casey smiled.
"Thanks Casey." I smiled slightly.
"Ok done." Leo said tying off the bandage.
Splinter got up when he stuck the last band aid on my leg. "Eclips I want to talk to you in the dojo." He said offering me a hand up.
I looked at his hand but slowly got to my feet by myself. A shot of pain rushed through my body from my feet making me bite my lip so I didn't scream. Splinter put his hand on my shoulder put I pushed it off before marching to the dojo, holding in the pain of each step.
Splinter sighed and looked at his sons.
"Sensei are you going to tell her about Karai?" Leo asked.
"One step at a time Leonardo." Splinter said.
"Ok." Leo sighed.
I sat down and waited for Splinter to come. I looked over to the mantel and noticed one of the photos was gone. I slowly got up again and walked over to it picking up the photo just as Splinter walked in.
"Eclips please sit down, I have made some tea for us." Splinter said.
"Where's the other photo?" I asked turning to him.
Splinter didn't answer. I sighed and put the photo back before walking over to Splinter, sitting in front of him.
"Eclips I'm sorry for giving you to the Krang, I understand you may not be ready to forgive me but I saw no other option to keep you alive." Splinter said pouring the tea.
I looked down. "No Sensei it's not that, I understand why you did what you did." I said.
"Oh." Splinter raised an eyebrow and placed to tea in front of me. "Then what is it?"
"There were more mutants." I said.
"More Mutant? Were they turtles."
"No." I shook my head. "They were humans with animal features."
"Why does this worry you?"
"Because I know what it's like to be stuck with the Krang, I wanted to help them but when the guys came I just wanted to get out so I didn't say anything." I sighed. "Just like I did with Trouble."
Splinter got up and sat beside me. "Eclips don't guilt yourself with this." He said.
I leant on him and looked up into his eyes. "I want to help them."
"I'm sorry but that will not be happening." He sighed.
"Why? I know where their being held and we can-
"Eclips please they is something else that needs our attention first."
"What?" I asked.
Splinter sighed again. "Eclips I did not want to tell you this yet but I feel you need to know… Karai is really my daughter…
