Annnd I updated!! Look guys! I am so good! Updating within 2 or so weeks... I have no idea how long it's been. Yep... Yeah I'm the worst updater ever so this is achievement! Updating really fast! I hope you like this chapter of tears and more tears... Haha! Just kidding! But it is really sad...
Splinter's POV
The only sound I could hear was the slight rustle of the tree in my dojo as I relaxed on the floor, warm tea placed gently in my changed hands, fifteen years, almost sixteen and I still didn't know my own son's pain, it shocked me how hurt and rejected Michelangelo was feeling from our family. My time as a mutant rat had put a different perspective on how I saw things. There was things I hid from my sons, secrets I knew that they wouldn't understand, but knowing this I still hoped they would come to me sharing their secrets, I wanted for them to come to me if they felt hurt or something. I knew Leonardo came to me alot, but not the other three. Occasionally they did and I immediately used my knowledge to try and help them, but what would I do here? I knew Leonardo would immediately come to me... what would I say? My sight blurred over with a memory of one the earliest times Michelangelo was being picked on my sons.
"Haha! Mikey can't do the easiest of ninja skills!" the second youngest turtle scoffed, his already rough lightly scarred hands into the lime freckled shoulders. Michelangelo pouted.
"Well that's not my fault..." He tried, jaw trembled. I walked slowly into the scenario, observing where to go in. Leonardo and Donatello were on the ground Donatello was explaining the way the remote control worked. Leonardo was nodding. I put on my stern face.
"Raphael." I said loudly. Raphael jumped.
"Yes sensei?" He trembled.
"Why were you picking on Michelangelo?" I asked calmly. Raphael frowned, as deciding what would be the best answer.
"Well it was really easy and me and Leo got it on the first shot while Mikey couldn't do it at all." He explained.
"Oh so that gives you the right to pick on him?" I raised my eye brow at the emerald eyed seven year old.
"Well yes." He huffed, pulling his strong shoulders up.
"So what about the time when Michelangelo beat you in the race? Does that mean he can brag about it?"
"Well I had a bad ankle!" Raphael tried to counter. "Remember sensei it had a bruise from sparing!"
"But he beat you? That was what your saying? He was better than you there for has the right to attack you about it." I could feel Michelangelo smiling at me. Raphael said nothing. I smiled and walked off.
"Master Splinter!" Michelangelo called. I stopped my tracks.
"Yes my son?" I asked gently. Michelangelo grinned at me, his beautiful blue eyes glinted in the vented sunlight.
"Thank you sensei!" He smiled, arms wrapped around me. I smiled and hugged him back.
Tears rolled down my face as I found myself back in the dojo. My son, my beautiful son... Broken unable to hold back the poison from his own family.
Several hours later
Raph's POV
I smashed my fist on the training dummy, my breathing deep and loud. Hours must of passed, even Donnie seemed asleep at this late hour. We why weren't we out? Why weren't we looking for him? I'd always felt strongly protective of Mikey, despite my behavior towards him showed. Me and my temper, my temper had broken the happy turtle. I yelled out again, pulling out one of my sai and stabbing it into the dummy. Sand poured our. I didn't care as the sand covered my heels, or I'd probably woken everybody up. That it might result in Splinter giving me another lecture on controlling my temper. Or when the tears poured down my face. I wanted, I needed my little brother back. I tried to relaxed my shoulders, if they weren't going to do anything...
"Huh Raph?" Donnie groaned from his lab. I have walked into my lab.
"Go back to sleep." I half growled, but put the white blanket we'd left in his lab. I wasn't going to loose him too. Donnie smiled in his sleep, I nodded just because Leo was the leader, it didn't mean I couldn't act like an older brother too. I also undid his mask and left it next to him. Patience had never been my strongest ninja skill, especially if my little brother was in the danger of being dead.
It was around 3:30 autumn so moonlight was still dominate. I slipped into the place we fought the kraang several hours before. Signs of the kraang had gone, blood from the fight were on the floor. Dirt prints of our feet scattered the alleyway. I was crouched on the bin Mikey had hidden himself behind, I used my enhanced ninja sight to scan further on the concrete field. There was no signs of kraang following him. I hopped gently on the floor, still crouched, my hands scrapped against the floor. A foot that looked liked it was made with s metal foot. Different from the kraang. My stomach flipped as the fear creped in, there was only one guy I, we knew with metal feet other than the the kraang. Fish face.
His tracks followed Mikey's, I could tell from them he wasn't trying to be a ninja. Making him an easy target.
Immediately I pulled out my T-phone.
"Leo!" I practically screamed into the shell shaped device.
"Huh, what Raph? Couldn't you come to my room?" He asked, his voice tired and annoyed.
"Leo, listen." I growled.
"What? Why?!" He demanded. "Can't this wait till the morning?" He tone shone with clear annoyance.
"If you want Mikey to be captured by Shredder." I said dryly, even as I spoke the fear was growing stronger.
"Where are you?" He said, he was now alert and awake.
"At the scene where we fought the kraang." I explained impatiently.
"Raph why aren't you in bed?" He growled, but I could tell he was freaking out.
"Just listen... I think Fish Face followed Mikey..."
Leo's POV
The words sunk in.
"Raph, stay there I'm gonna get Donnie! Do not leave!"
"What and let Mikey get captured!? No!!"
"No Raph!" I could hear wind the phone beeped. He'd hung up. I slammed a fist on my bed side table. I drew in a breath trying to calm myself. Alright Leo calm down he's going to be OK... He's a ninja... I tried to calm myself as I tied my mask and sheaths over my shell.
"Donnie." I whispered to my scrawny brother.
"Hmm." Donnie groaned he rubbed his head on the bench. I nudged his shell, gently shaking him.
"Donnie... Raph went out, he thinks Shredder, well Fish Face has Mikey." Donnie slammed his head up, the blanket slid to the bottom of his chair.
"What?!" His eyes filled with fear and confusion.
"How?!" He demanded. I shrugged, so often I was used to this look. Answers.
"We believes Fish Face followed has him." I said. Donnie grabbed his staff from leaning against a bench.
"Umm Donnie you need this." I held up his mask. Donnie frowned.
"I didn't..." He began, he smiled. "Looks like Raph can be soft sometimes. He pulled the blanket from his chair and folded it neatly on his shelf.
"I'll tell sensei." I explained. My voice croaked, Donnie nodded. Wr couldn't meet eyes both too scared to look at each other, see the fear and how broken we were.
"They'll be ok." I selfconsciously said, it was habit to try and support and bring up the hope on the purple mask turtle, but this was different. Both of us needed to help each other...
Yep!! Cliff hanger! What is Raph thinking? Is Mikey OK?! Haha! Leaving my followers at questions is so much fun... I mean what? What you talking about you didn't just read that, no what gives you that idea... *awkward smile*
