Chapter 3

"Shhh don't cry Nugget i-it's ok no ones gonna hurt you." Mikey almost broke down as he held his baby sister in his arms. He sat on her bed as he rubbed her back comforting her while she was shaking and whimpering in fear.

He had never seen her so scared

Sure she had a couple nightmares

But this one time it was different

It was reality.

"I've never seen Emma so scared." April looked in doorway concern, Emma was like a little sister to her and like the others she hated seeing her when she wasn't happy.

"Isn't there anything we can do?" Leo asked the two gem women.

"I don't think so Leonardo, When Onyx makes a promise she keeps her word." Topaz crossed her arms

"I-I think we have to negotiate with her." Sapphire stuttered

"No way you and I both know that she'll shatter us both." Topaz grabbed her shoulders "We're war criminals."

"I'd rather be shattered then innocent lives be taken because we didn't do anything to stop her!" Sapphire held her hands tightly looking into her eyes.

Topaz looked in her girlfriends eyes, that last thing she wanted to do was make a deal with that dictator, she knew that they didn't have a choice.

"You still got that communicator?" Topaz asked

Sapphire nods and takes off her glove showing her blue gem on her palm, the gem started to glow revealing a light blue oval disk

"Donatello." She grabs Donnie's attention "I need to use your computer."

...............................................

Everyone was in Donnie's lab as they watched Sapphire figit with the wires, finally she got
the connection just right as the computer screen projected a bigger clear blue screen appears with strange letters going up the screen while it loaded.

"You all may want to step back." She gestured to everyone "I don't want her to see you all."

The screen loaded for a second as everyone stepped back, after a few more seconds a holograph of  Obsidian appears "State your call."

Sapphire takes a deep breath "I wish to speak to Queen Onyx directly."

"I'm afraid that we can not make that possible-"

"I am one of the fugitive she's looking for."

After hearing that Obsidians attitude changed "Don't move." She starts to transfer her over, Sapphire feet start to ice up she was so scared. She suddenly felt a warm hand holding hers she looks down to Emma looking up smiling at her. Seeing her face made Sapphire feel a lot safer.

Queen Onyx finally appears, Topaz quickly pulled Emma before she could see her.

Onyx looked at Sapphire up and down scanning her appearance " I know you, you're that records keeper I had ordered to be shattered."

Sapphire was scared but she had to stand tall in the eye of the monster

Just like Amethyst taught her.

"Yes I am, and as you can can see I'm still breathing." Sapphire narrowed her eyes at her leaving everyone shocked and impressed.

Onyx scoffs "What do you want?"

"I wish to negotiate with you."

"A negotiation you can't be serious?" Onyx rolled her eyes bored like she could have something better to do.

"You May get a better deal than the one you already made." Sapphire persuades.

Onyx thought for a moment, finally giving her answer "Very well we will have this little meeting of yours I doubt you peasants have anything that I want, Obsidian will set it up. Do Not Make Me Wait." The call goes out

Sapphire sighs deeply "I can't feel my legs." Looking like she about to faint

"Ya did great babe." Topaz hugs her giving her a kiss.

"Now what do we do?" Raph asked

"Now we wait."

...............................................

Later that night when the sky was milky blue the turtles, Splinter, April, Dimitri, Emma, and the gems walk though Central Park reaching the location which happens to be a dark cave.

Topaz and Sapphire gems reflects light like a flashlight to guide their way.

Emma decided she wanted to help and shakes her head, her eyes glow bright pink since she didn't have a gem.

Topaz couldn't help but laugh at her goofy niece, even when facing darkness she still could make her smile.

They finally make it to the deep center of the cave.

A white gem symbol appears on the wall, the circle glows as a figure steps out revealing Obsidian

"Please show respect and honor for Queen Onyx." Obsidian bows as Onyx steps out of the portal gracefully.

Mikey starts to bow but Leo stops him "Mikey what are you doing?"

"I thought you were to bow for royalty?" Mikey asked puzzled.

"Trust me Mikey she's the last person you'd bow to."
Topaz looked her up and down in disgust.

"Alright make this quick I have better things to do than stay in this filthy domain." Onyx dusted her shoulder in disgust.

"Your majesty." Sapphire tried not to gag at the word majesty "We would like to offer a treaty."

"Is that so?" Onyx raised an eyebrow.

"we only ask if you spare this planet" Topaz stood beside her girlfriend holding her hand "The people of this world don't have anything to do with this."

Onyx raised an eyebrow look them up and down "Very Well." Onyx snaps her fingers and obsidian holds a pair of crystal handcuffs walking towards them

Topaz and Sapphire looked at each in fear before taking a deep breath

"NO!"

They all saw Emma running up to them

"Emma get back here!" Splinter tried to grab her but misses

"I won't let you!!!" Emma stood in front of them.

"And you who are you supposed to be?"
Onyx chuckles

"My name is Emma and you aren't gonna take my aunts away" Emma narrowed her glowing pink eyes at the Queen,

Onyx looked at her very closely, almost staring at her

Those eyes

That long curly blond hair

"You remind me of someone I know." Onyx raised an eyebrow, trying to see if her mind was playing tricks on her "Have we meet before?"

"This is Emerald" Topaz introduces her "Amethyst's daughter."

"And Screwball." Sapphire added

Onyx eyes widen

Amethyst had a child?!

She had niece that she's never know was born or even existed

But more she thought about it, the more disgusted she became.

Onyx scoffs at the name of the demon "Ugh of course my sister would have a child with that demonic freak." Not even thinking about the fact that she had niece that's she's never meet.

"My daddy's not a freak you mean o'l goobsnob!" Emma yelled

"How dare you speak to the queen that way!" Obsidian was about to go on a rant but Onyx put a hand up silencing her

"Where is my sister?" Onyx asked raising an eyebrow Suspiciously at them all "She still needs to pay for her war crimes, what she was too much of coward to show up?"

Everyone looked at each wondering if they should tell fearing she would use it against them.

"I am her." Emma spoke up, Onyx raise an eyebrow looking at her confused, "She got attacked and her gem was cracked so she used a spell to go inside me."

Onyx looked at her amazed and looked like she was thinking for a moment "Fine I will spare your planet but you will have to give something to me in return."

"And that would be?" Splinter asked

Onyx thought for a second before finally speaking

"The child."

Everyone looked as if they just seen a ghost

She wanted Emma?

"Absolutely not!" Splinter stepped in front of her.

"She is of royal blood and a heir to the throne she belongs with her real family." Onyx looked at them all with disgust

"No." Sapphire flat out told her clutching her fist.

"Then you leave me no choice." Onyx glared coldly as the gem in her eye glowed With a swipe of her hand a black mist spread the air

"Huh?" Raph pats his body seeing he's fine "What did you just do?"

"One of you will becoming with me as a prisoner" She looks at Topaz and Sapphire

"Pet." She looked at the turtles and Splinter

"Slave." She looks at Dimitri and April

"Or peace offering." She looks at Emma

"You have twenty four hours if no one comes forward or you refuse your world will be covered In enteral darkness and Eventually be destroyed from the inside out." Onyx stood cold and emotionless "You will meet back here at this same location for your final decision." She and Obsidian walk though the portal.

...............................................

"I can not believe that lady!!!" April angrily stomps around "She going to destroy earth unless someone agrees to go with her?!"

"What do we do now?" Dimitri asked

"I say we go back to that one eyed lady and show her she can't just walk all over us!" Leo pointed a thumb to the door.

"It's not the simple Leonardo." Topaz put a hand on his shoulder "She has more power than you think not to mention a whole army."

Sapphire took a deep breath "Well we have to choose who goes, I know it's hard and no one wants to live but we cant afford to go to her empty handed-"

"I'll go."

Everyone turned to Emma with outage

"No way Em you are not going with that crazy lady!" Dimitri shook her shoulders

"She said she wanted me anyway if I do she won't hurt anyone." Emma twiddles her thumbs

"Sweetheart." Topaz got down on one knee gently putting a hand on her shoulders "I know you wanna help but I lost you once and I'm not gonna lose you again, I'll go."

"Topaz!" Sapphire joined her side about to protest.

"I know their laws, maybe I can plead out a deal." Topaz shrugs her shoulders.

"If anything I should go." Sapphire volunteers herself. "I spent more time with the royal family maybe I can be spared."

"I highly doubt it Saph." Topaz shook her head

"I'll go." Dimitri raised his hand "it's not anyone will notice I'm gone.

"That's not true!" Emma hugs him "I need my best friend and what will your mom do if you're gone?"

"I'll go." Raph put his hand up "I'm the oldest and the biggest it won't be so bad for me."

"No way Raph we need you!" Donnie protest "I'll go."

"Donnie no!" Mikey hugs his brother not wanting him to leave

"I'm smart enough if I have the right materials maybe I could find a way to escape." Donnie said

"I'll go with her who knows maybe she just needs a good laugh." Leo laughed faking his nervousness.

"Maybe I should go." Mikey holds up his hand "I mean it might not be some bad, I always find way to entertain myself."

"No Mike if anyone's going it's me!" April narrowed her eyes "She wants to make me a slave I'll fight for all of entire!"

Everyone started arguing, volunteering themselves and protesting if someone else did.

Eventually Splinter couldn't take all the going back and forth anymore " Enough!" Getting everyone attention. "It's been a very long night everyone gets some sleep and we'll discuss it in the morning."

"Pops right lets get a few winks in." Raph nods as they all left to go to sleep

"If it's alright with you Splinter we'll stay here for the night." Topaz asked Splinter

"Of course." Splinter nodded walking away with the two women.

"Come on Emma." Dimitri grabs her hand "Maybe sleeping will help you feel better about this." He starts leading her to her bedroom.

"Yeah maybe." Emma agreed but still unsure.
