Kat's POV

I sat on my bed, looking at my wrists.

They had scars both old and new.

I took my mechanical pencil and drove the tip into my skin.

It hurt, but it helped.

I heard footsteps.

I quickly put my fingerless gloves back on.

The door bursted open.

"Come with me!" My drunk dad demanded.

"Why?" I asked.

"Do not question me!" he slurred.

I didn't move.

"Fine! I'll do it here!" he said.

"Do what?" I asked.

He came close to me.

He pulled down my pants.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" I yelled.

"Relax, you'll still have your virginity after this." he said.

I struggled, but it was no use.

He was too strong and I was too weak.

He felt me.

Did things a father should never do.

He put his finger up me.

I tried to fight back.

I got loose for a second, then he hit me in the eye.

He started again.

After about 10 full minutes, he stopped.

"It's been awhile since I've hand the comfort of a woman." he said.

He was right.

I still had my virginity.

But I felt violated.

He went into his room and passed out.

I started crying.

My mascara ran down my face.

I opened the window to the fire escape, and climbed to the roof.

I'm gonna end this now.

No more abuse from daddy.

No more people treating me differently.

No more cutting to take away the pain.

I walked up to the edge and looked down.

I was about to jump, when something strong pulled me back.

It pulled me far away from the ledge.

"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!?" A male voice said.

I was still crying.

I looked into his eyes.

He was a turtle.

I was shocked at first, but was too upset to care.

He saw the mascara down my face and hugged me.

I continued crying.

"It's gonna be alright." he cooed.

After about 5 minutes, he asked, "Do you wanna talk about what happened?"

I shook my head.

He looked into my eyes.

He saw the mark where my dad hit me.

"What happened to your eye?" he asked.

"The same thing I tried to kill myself over." I said.

"Please tell me?" he pleaded.

I sighed.

"My dad abused me." I said.

"What?!" He practically screamed.

"It's a long story, but it turned into him... feeling me." I said.

He looked angry.

"No man should do that." he said.

I smiled a little.

"So what's your name?" he asked.

"Kat." I said.

"Nice ta meet ya, Kat, I'm Raph." he said.

"H-Hi." I said.

"Do you wanna come back to my home with me?" he asked.

"I don't think I can. I need to get home." I said.

"What?! There's no way I'm letting you back there! You could get hurt, or hurt yourself!" he said.

"I don't know." I said.

"Please? Just stay for a little while. If you still wanna go home after a week, you can go back and I won't stop you." he asked.

I thought for a minute.

"Alright, fine." I gave in.

He smiled.

"Follow me." he said.

I followed him down into an alleyway.

I looked around.

"Why are we in here? There's no houses or anything here." I asked.

"We're not going into a house." He said.

I gave him a confused look.

He smiled and crouched down, then opened a manhole cover.

"You're kidding, right?" I asked.

He chuckled and went down the hole.

I paused.

"You coming?" he asked when he got to the bottom.

I slowly climbed down the ladder.

Raph motioned for me to follow him.

After a couple minutes, we came upon a... I don't know what to call it.

"Welcome to our lair." Raph said.

Oh, so that's what it's called.

"Our?" I questioned.

Before he could answer, a voice asked, "Who is she and why is she here?"

He was a turtle, like Raph, and but had a blue mask and was taller than Raph, but wasn't taller than me.

I'm 5'5".

"Her name's Kat and I'll explain everything later." Raph said.

I gave Raph a confused look.

"Kat, this is my brother, Leo." Raph said.

I looked at Leo.

I didn't know what to say.

"Hello, Kat, it's nice to meet you." Leo said.

"Uhhh... hi." I said and gave a little wave.

"Dudes, who's the new chick?" a voice asked.

This one had an orange mask, and was shorter then Raph.

"Mikey, this is Kat, Kat this is Mikey." Leo said.

"Hey, dudette!" Mikey said.

"Hi." I said.

"What happened to your eye?" Mikey asked.

"Long story." I said.

"We have time." Leo said.

I told them about my background, and about what happened a little while ago.

"Awe, that sucks, dude." Mikey said.

"Hey, where's Donnie?" Raph asked.

"In his lab." Leo said.

"How many turtles live here?" I asked.

"4. Then there's our father. He's a rat." Leo said.

I widened my eyes.

"I'm gonna take Kat to Donnie's lab. Maybe see if he can fix her eye." Raph said.

Leo nodded.

Raph led me to Donnie's lab.

"Donnie, can you do me a favor?" Raph asked.

"Sure, what is it?" Donnie said without looking up from his work.

This one had a purple mask.

Raph cleared his throat.

Donnie looked up.

"Oh, h-hello." he stuttered.

"Hi." I said.

"Can you fix her eye up?" Raph asked.

"No problem." he said.

He had me sit down on a table.

He did some medical stuff, I have no idea what, on my eye.

"How did you get this?" Donnie asked.

"My dad." I said quietly.

He didn't say anything.

"How did you meet Raph?" he asked.

I didn't answer.

"She... was gonna kill herself. I stopped her." Raph said.

A tear went down my face.

"Raph, do you mind if I talk to Kat alone?" Donnie asked.

"Uhhhh, sure." he said and left.

"Is there any specific reason?" he asked.

"Yes." I answered.

"What's bothering you?" he asked.

He put his hand on my shoulder when I didn't answer.

I looked at his face.

"My dad abused me, physically and sexually. The kids at school bully me. I have no friends. I don't have a mom. Shall I go on?" I said.

He shook his head.

I looked into my lap.

He started to take off my gloves.

I pulled away.

"Please?" he asked.

I slowly put my hand back towards him.

He took off the gloves.

He cringed.

He got out some supplies.

"What are you doing?" I asked.

"Cleaning the cuts up." he said.

I nodded.

He put some liquid stuff on it and it stung like hell!

"Ah!" I said and pulled my hand away.

"I know it stings, but I need to put this on it." Donnie said.

I nodded and gave my wrist back.

I had to grab the table in order to keep from crying.

Yes, it hurt that much.

He put my gloves back on.

"Can we not tell the others about this? I don't want them worrying." I asked.

"Why would they be worried? It's not like you almost jumped off a building." Donnie said sarcastically.

"I'm serious, Donnie. They have enough to worry about already." I pleaded.

He sighed.

"Fine.'

"Thanks, D." I said.

"No problem."
