Tmnt- Generations, Chapter 1: true love's hidden voice
Hey guy's trying out a cannon story, was asked to by an anonymous friend of mine, enjoy~!
"get the feeling life just sucks? When something good happens, something has to go wrong? I feel like that now,"
--Raphael
The night was young, the new moon nowhere to be seen; the stars shone in a blanket of scattered clouds, with the lights were to a minimal on this pleasant night. The streets were paved with people, acting like the traffic in between the road.
Four blurs danced on top of the rooftops of the city with a silent grace, performing fluid melody that had a soft rhythm. They were heading in the direction of the lake, polluted from years of waste and pollution.
The four figures soon landed on the docks, revealing their form to be mutant turtles. The first turtle held two katana on his back, as the sheaths were rapped with blue cloths and had plain, black handles. Wearing a blue mask on, the knot let two long ribbons flow in the wind. His shell held a gash at the side, a panel of shell missing from 4 years ago. He is known as Leonardo (or Leo for short), named after the famous Italian painter and inventor, Leonardo Da Vinci.
The second turtle had a pole on his back, rapped in purple cloth in the middle. He wore a purple mask, which revealed his thoughtful gaze and relaxed composure, since he was the brains between his brothers. Like Leonardo, he was named after an Italian artist, hence the name Donatello, though Don was just as acceptable.
The third turtle had twin sai on his sides, the handles rapped in red cloth as well as his mask. He wore a pissed face with eyes squinted, seeming to be in a foul mood. But then again, his brothers would say that he always was sour most of the time. The aggressive hot head was given the name Raphael, given the name of an Italian painter just like his other brothers, as Raph was always in the mood to fight.
The final turtle had two nun-chucks on his sides, rapped on each handle with an orange cloth. An orange mask adorned the happy-go-lucky face, seeming to be in a jovial mood in all cases. Though his brothers may find it a nuisance at times, Michelangelo was just an excellent fighter as his other brothers; course Mikey was preferred among his friends, given his lax nature.
The night was a concept of beauty to the turtles; being ninja, they were taught the ways of stealth and shadows. The turtles were 18 now, aging rapidly throughout their many adventures they had together. Their sensei, Splinter, was given the chance to live longer than he should; he was probably about 55-60 compared to human years, but seemed older by a glance. This was because he was mutated when he was a very old feral rat, with a mysterious mutation switching his age range to that of human equivalence.
Leo sighed as he looked out to the horizon. "Guys, this seems a good spot to sit." They sat on the docks, as it was July 4th, Independence Day, as a fireworks show was about to start in 5 minutes.
Raph shot a look at Leo, his gaze flaring at the turtle "You're serious!? It smells like garbage around here!" he said as he held his nose.
"Raph, only we would smell it, turtles have more acute smell than humans" Donnie cut in. "But Leo, why not sit from the building?" he asked.
Leo smiled "Because it's a surprise..." as he looked to his other two brothers. The turtles had caught a flash within the sky as the fourth brother pointed it out. "Hey look, their firing fireworks early!" Mikey said, obviously astounded as balls of light shot into the air, exploding into a shower of multi-colored sparks. Falling as a rainbow rain, it was a beautiful sight to behold.
This lasted for about 40 minutes before the sparks had disappeared, and the night was left dark again. The turtles had risen from their spot, and headed to get to the closest sewer panel.
They soon arrived at the metal sewer gate in the ground, with Raph pulled digging into it with the use of his sai. Donnie had used his Bo staff to pop it off, though they were suddenly ambushed as they were about to slip into the sewers. Four new enemies surrounded them, the white clothed figures wearing hoods to hide their faces. Raph drew the other sai, his two fingers between the three spikes, as Donnie pulled out his staff, ready to fight if necessary. Mikey drew his nun-chucks, spinning them as if ready to strike, with Leo pulled out his katana to prepare themselves for a fight.
"Who are these losers?" Raph asked his other three brothers. They shook their heads, getting a response from Leo as the blue masked turtle said "No clue."
It had been a year or two since a large threat faced New York. Thinking that the turtles had the advantage, Leo had initiated the first move, though one of the hooded figures suddenly dodged the strikes. Metal had flashed in an instant, striking Leo on the skin as cuts grazed into him; blood gushed as Leo fell to his knees.
Raph was in shock, his eyes wide as he rushed to his brother's aid. His mind flashed as he held his brothers in his arms, crying out "LEO!!!" at the horrific sight of his comrade, his brother! Leo was a broken angel: wings cracked, basked and busted, hanging in front of him with blood everywhere.
He snapped back to reality as he blanked out for a moment. 'What the shell just happened?!' he thought.
The hooded figures had disappeared, as Raph tried to get his brother to speak. "Leo! Leo, hang on!" he said, with all three of them picking up their brother and helped him into the sewers. "Donnie, get ready to treat Leo, this looks very bad!" Raph said as Donnie charged off into the sewers, quickly disappearing into the tunnel.
Soon they arrived at the lair; a wall pulled up, revealing a hexagonal doorway. They ran inside and came to Donnie's area, setting Leo on a makeshift stretcher which Donnie wheeled into a different room.
Splinter ran from his room at the sound of the commotion, wearing a grave look at the sight of Leonardo's condition. "My son! What happened to Leonardo!?" the rat said. Raph was on the verge of almost crying, his angry passion diminished in the chaos of the moment. "Four hooded freaks showed up after the fireworks. Leo charged at one... we didn't even get a chance to see what happened. After a flash... Leo was on his knees, bleeding." he explained. 'And that I had this strange experience happen...' he thought, not saying anything out loud.
Raphael's anger flared again as he swore "When I figure out who did this, those freaks are going to die!"
After what seemed like forever, but in reality half an hour, Donnie came back into the room. He had a sad and concerned look when he told his family the bad news. "He was wounded severely; they missed all his vital spots, but they did something odd that I can't pick up from my medical tools. Leo is in a comatose shock at the moment. Who knows when he'll wake... it could be a week or so." Don had thought out loud as he said to everyone "It's strange... why didn't the enemy hit any vital veins or organs?"
Splinter sighed in relief "Thank goodness he's all right. These hooded figures seem familiar... I will have to meditate on this my sons. Raphael, I want you to look after Leo" he said, not wanting Raphael to go off to find the hooded figures. "It would seem a new threat has emerged. Donatello, Michelangelo get some sleep in your rooms; you all will need the energy." With that, Splinter-Sensei had left the room to his own bed chambers, leaving the three turtles on the eve of a new challenge ahead of them. .
Raph had walked into the hospital wing if their home, to see a bandaged Leo laying on a makeshift hospital bed "Leo... why did you charge the guy"
Raph wasn't mad anymore, seeing Leo broken and hurt, again, broke his anger to tiny bits. He sat in a chair beside Leo's bed. He looked around, making sure no one was around, after satisfied that no one was watching, he broke out in tears, and stiffed his verbal moaning and huffing. He was silently crying on Leo's shoulder for hours, his mask hiding his red puffy eyes.
He sat there, depressed for 3 hours, soon falling asleep on Leo's torso. He dreamed of his experience, Leo as a broken and mangled angel on his knees, it was hard for him to bear, but he couldn't wake up, so in his mind, he finally understood the reason for the image...
He woke up with a startle, checking his shellphone for the time. He sighed and looked around, still alone, it was 4 AM, he'd been asleep for a long time, Leo hadn't budged either, which shocked raph.
Raph stood up and headed towards the kitchen area, getting something to drink. He was sweating and puffed eyes, and he needed to make sure that he hid his crying from everyone else, he was the angry one after all, he needed to keep his angry looks.
After an hour, his face had return to normal, and the medical wing was filled with raph, Donnie, mikey, Casey, splinter, April, and angel.
Angel was the first to break the silence "is he going to be alright?" angel asked. Splinter sighed "young one, he's in shock, he could wake up next week or never" he said. Everyone put their head down in depression. Raph slammed his knuckle into his palm "I say we figure out who those guys were!"
"Raphael! Do you want to end up like Leonardo!" splinter yelled, raph went quiet "no..." he said. Splinter nodded "till we figure out who the hidden figures are, no turtle is to leave the sewer, better yet, this home." Casey ,angel, and April started leaving, leaving the 3 turtles, their comatose brother, and their sensei/father.
Raph sighed and say back down "now, if you will excuse my, my early soap operas start soon" he pulled the remote from his vest and walked out "aww... so that was where it went" mikey said, pouting as he walked out and up to his room.
Donnie left to leave raph and Leo alone, going to the lab to analyze the wound data, seeing as it must either be the hooded guy or Leo that brought the comatose shock.
Raph put his head on Leo's chest again "your my broken angel now Leo, please come back to us" no response or shift. He soon fell asleep again.
---in Leo's mind
It was dark. Leo sat in pitch black nothingness, he didn't budge as it surrounded him, he was at peace, even if he had been panicking for hours. He had given up, seeing this dream wasn't able to be awoken from.
He was scared at first, but progressively it became easier.
"your my broken angel" a wisper flowed past his mind "raph?" he asked, Unable to really wake up and ask him, but he tried to wake up, without success.
---back to raph
He wine up again later and saw some difference in Leo, his clenched fist had relaxed. He sighed in relief 'he's still with us' he thought. Donnie came in and hooked Leo on an HIV and water bag, as so He didn't need to be forced to drink or eat. "I still can't figure out what's wrong with him."
Master splinter walked in "I know what's wrong with him" "you do?" raph asked "he had been attacked by the servants known as the shiroi akuma or white demons. They serve an unknown master...--and they are not human" he said.
Raph frowned "your saying we can't fight them?!" he said. Splinter shook his head "no, you all are not skilled enough yet, you all are only 19, I cannot lose you all, again" he said, walking from the room.
Raph sat back down, Donnie and mikey were perplexed, raph wasn't going to go out to fight for once. Donnie went to his lab to learn more about Leo's condition, mikey headed to the couch to watch tv.
Raph seemed to be in a rut, he didn't know what to do, Leo usually gave him a purpose to fight, but here he was, unable to leave the ninja's site. He was confused and started pacing around, thinking.
This went on for several hours, no end. He was trying to decide what to do and solve some unknown issues. He walked back to Leo, and put a hand on his shoulder 'what happened that we don't know?' he thought.
He needed answers, fast, he didn't know how long Leo would stay like this. Donnie walked in and smiled "I figured out what it is. The guy had something tipped with a neurotoxin that brought coma like symptoms. I was looking in the cuts, but it spread from then to the brain. We can wake him up, but it'll be tomorrow because I have to make an anti-toxin."
Raph was joyed, which surprised himself, he hugged Donnie, grinning widely "Donnie! You did it! Thank you bro!" he said, confusing donnie.
Raph left the wing with new found hope, everyone was told the news already, Donnie had sat back at his lab and began making the cure. 'I only caught a small drop off the cut, that's why I couldn't figure it out' he thought. He had found the wet spot in the bandaging and sampled it, thus knowing the right cure.
It felt like hours to raph, and he was a little worried, he didn't know what to do or say, he felt useless really, and it bugged him horribly.
A spider crawled in front of Raphael and He suddenly noticed it. Anyone in a good 30 feet radius would here him screaming "Spider!!!! Kill it, kill it, kill it!!!" Raph had a bit of arachnophobia, he was a tough guy, but a spider just breaks him.
Mikey ran in and squashed the spider "raph, you need to stop being afraid of spiders... OW!" raph slapped the back of Mikey's head and walked away.
Raph walked to splinters room "master splinter?" he asked. The doors opened "come in my son" he walked in "Raphael, these white demons are after you and your brothers for some reason, would you know why?"
Raph wasn't sure "I wouldn't know sensei, i just hope we don't see them again" splinter nodded in agreement. "Raphael, you all are allowed back to the surface, but don't attack them, steer clear if then, understood?" Raph nodded and walked out 'no intention to at this point' he thought.
He walked back to Leo's quarters, and smiled, Leo was soon coming back from his coma. It was a good day for him, and he felt that sliver of something unknown to him.
