Hello! Here's a new story! It's been a while hasn't it? My bad! Enjoy x
Chapter 1
The four brothers were finally having a peaceful night. The streets were quiet, there were no criminals around, no Foot, no Kraang, the air was warm, the breeze was cool and as a result they were in high spirits.
They were hanging out on a rooftop staring up at the moon.
Leonardo was perched on top of a storage shed, for once his body language was not ridged and alert. Instead he had his arms crossed and was leaning on one of his raised knees while the other leg swung lazily as it hung down.
Raphael was just to the left beneath him, he was stood leaning his full weight against the shed.
Donatello was across from them perched on the ledge of the roof; he was facing his brothers with his back to the outside world. His long legs were stretched out, hands in his lap rather than clutching his cell.
Michelangelo, the brother the three others were currently watching and laughing at, was lying on the roof next to Donatello, his head resting on the ledge inches away from the genius. He was staring at the moon and creating an elaborate story where he and his brothers would go there for a vacation.
"Donnie could totally build a rocket! You guys are laughing but I know we could totally do it!" He insists with a huge grin. "Wouldn't it be so cool!? Besides D, I thought you liked space!"
"I do like 'Space' as you put it" Donnie chuckles, "But that doesn't mean I wanna go stand on the moon with you! You'd be the one person who would actually end up bored!"
"What!? Why would the moon be boring?" Mikey looks up at Don, "There'd be loads to do!"
"Like what?"
"I'd bounce around, look at the earth, use Leo's sword to cut something into the surface so everyone on earth could see it, fight aliens" He lists.
"What would you draw?" Raph snorts, "I don't think the humans would enjoy seeing a big turtle on their moon every night"
"I think it's obvious what I'd draw" Mikey smirks mischievously.
"Pizza?" Leo guesses.
"A Cat?" Donnie tries when Mike shakes his head.
"C'mon guys! It's the moon! Go big or go home!" He grins, "Obviously I'd draw a big penis!"
He then melts into evil cackles.
"Real mature bro" Donnie rolls his eyes as Raphael lets out a belly laugh, Leonardo just smirks.
The brothers' laughter fades into comfortable silence as they listen to the sounds of the city.
They hear a van park below them.
Donatello slides down from the ledge to sit beside Michelangelo, just to ensure no one below can see him.
"The city's so loud" Mikey sighs as he turns to lay his head on the lap that just landed next to him.
"Duh" Raph watches his two younger brothers. "It's New York, why do you think they call it the city that never sleeps?"
"Where would you rather be Mikey?" Leo asks the baby of the four,
"Dunno" Mike shrugs, "depends where you guys are"
The brothers frown.
"Well… we're here numbskull" Raph points out,
"Then… this is where I wanna be" Mikey looks over at Raph, "It'd be no fun being anywhere else if you guys weren't with me"
"Ok" Donnie looks down at Mikey, "So if you could take all of us somewhere, where would we go?"
"All four of us?" Mikey asks before frowning. "Probably Japan… I think Master Splinter would like us to visit his home"
The brothers nod.
"Plus, April told me the food there is to die for" Mikey grins immediately, "Like everything tastes so good!"
The brothers laugh, not hearing the noises from below.
Donnie shakes his head with a chuckle as he rests his arms on the ledge behind.
Mikey started rambling about sushi when he suddenly felt something hook his wrist, he looks over at it to see what looked like a blunt fishhook with a chain attached.
Before he could do anything, the line attached suddenly pulled with enough force that Donatello was dragged backwards right off the roof with a strangled yelp.
He heard his brothers scream his name as he fell. Luckily the rooftop hadn't been too high and, less luckily, there were a group of Kraang at the bottom to catch him.
He leapt back away from the Kraang only for the fishhook to slid around his wrist until it became a metal band. He cringed; his left wrist was definitely broken from the pull.
His eyes followed the chain to see one of the Kraang holding the other end, the length of the chain spilled down onto the concrete around its metal feet. It gave a pull which made Don gasp at the pain.
He didn't flinch however when his three brothers fell by his side.
"Let him go" Leo snaps as he pulls out his katanas. "This is your only warning"
Donnie uses his other hand to grab the chain and pulled with all his might, but it got him nowhere, the Kraang just gave it another harsh tug. Don was forced to step forward with it as his wrist burned.
"The turtle known as Donatello will come with the ones known as the Kraang" It commanded.
His brothers stepped out in front of him.
"Like hell" Raph growls menacingly.
"What do you want Donnie for?" Mikey asks suspiciously.
"That information is that which is known as classified" The Kraang answers. "The turtle known as Donatello will come with the ones known as the Kraang"
"You said that already" Donnie groans as he tries to free himself again. The Kraang raises a finger and places it against the chain.
Electricity flows up through the metal, it hits its target causing the poor turtle's body to seize. Powerless.
"Stop!" Mikey yelps as he watches the genius get fried, the Kraang didn't seem to be taking his finger away. "STOP! STOP!"
Leo and Raph, who were running at the group of alien robots, are forced to stop when one Kraang raises its hand.
"Those who are known as the turtles will do that which is back away" It commanded. Before sweeping a hand, indicating at the Kraang shocking their brother. "In the time known as Now"
The brothers do as they're told and join Mikey's side.
The Kraang waves at them telling them to back off further.
They hesitate but do it anyway.
The electricity finally stops.
Donatello sways from side to side for a moment, his eyes half lidded. He looks over his shoulder at his brothers, his brown eyes conveying sadness and acceptance, before collapsing to the floor as if boneless.
"D-Donnie" Mikey gasps. The Kraang pull the chain dragging the unconscious turtle closer, the brothers cringe at the sound.
"Now you've really pissed me off!" Raph steps forward to attack again but Leo grabs his arm to stop him.
"Don't." He demands. "Didn't you listen? If we do anything, they'll hurt him"
"If we don't do anything, they'll take him!" Raph growls. "They've already hurt him; we can't let them take him too!"
"The ones known as the turtles will come with the ones known as the Kraang" One robot commands as the group surrounds Donnie and lifts him into the van.
The three brothers freeze.
They had a choice.
They were free to run and leave their brother behind at the mercy of the Kraang.
Or they could become willing prisoners just to stay with Donatello.
What would they do?
