Rooftop Rapture Part II: Payback, Turtle Style

Chapter 7:

Thunder cracking over his head, the smell of rain in the air, a shimmer of green and blue is jumping and free running over the rooftops and down narrow streets. Then the shimmer stops in an alley dark with shadows, breathing hard. He steps closer to the edge of the wall, showing Leonardo.

He looks at the entrance of the dark turtles’ hideout. He takes a deep breath and tries to collect himself.

Leo’s P.O.V.
“I need to keep my head. I can’t do anything when I let rage control me. I need a good plan to stop them, all of them, not just that Donnie impostor.”

*shell-cell ringing*

Damn it, I forgot to leave my shell-cell at Cody’s. I pick up the shell-cell and see that Sensei is calling me. “He knows…” I pick up the shell-cell. “Sensei?”

“Leonardo, please… Do not do this, my son. Not alone at least. Let us help”. “Sensei, please, someone needs to keep an eye on Mikey, Dark Donatello told me he will try and…” “I know, my son, but Serling is more than capable for this task, so is young Cody. They are also our family now, and you need your brothers for this.” “What do you mean?” *from above* “He is talking about us.”

I look up, startled, to find my brothers and Master Splinter watching over me. They jump down in front of me. Raph walks up to me, looks me in the eyes and says: “You are not alone in this Fearless, let us help… For Mikey…” He looks at me sincerely and with determination and puts his hand on my shoulder. Donnie and Master Splinter are looking the same. I nod, and looks at them one by one. Then I say: “Anyone have a plan on how to do this?”. All of us look at Donnie, who says: “I have a plan, but it will be hard… This is what we need to do…”

Meanwhile inside the dark turtles lair. It is dark and musky,  the lights from outside are muffled by the walls of their lair. Dark Raphael and Dark Michelangelo are eating at the table, some pieces of meat left by their master Darius. Dark Leonardo is practicing some sword fighting alone. Dark Donatello is nowhere to be seen.

When Dark Raph is done with eating he says to Dark Leo: “What has you so fed up, Leo?”.
Dark Leo turns to them while stopping his practice “Something’s not feeling right… The last few days Donnie is hiding in his lab and he barely speaks to anyone… Is he even talking to you? You’re his mate”. “Well” Dark Raph says, looks at where Dark Don is supposed to be “You’re right about him not being talkative…”. Dark Mikey stops eating and wipes his mouth with his hand, asks Dark Raph: “You two had a fight or something?”. “No, and if we did, I’d know, you’d know too. *sighs* I… I just don’t know.”. “Want me to talk to him?” Dark Leo asks. “If you want to… You know how I am in conversation, thanks Leo…” Dark Raph says to his brother. Dark Leo nods at him and walks towards the lab, but before he can cross the room, a loud crash is sounding, and there is a hole in one of the walls. Through the hole 4 figures appear. 3 turles and a rat. Leo steps forward and says: “We have some questions for your Donatello”. Dark Leo steps in front of his brothers and says: “Why?”. “Because he did something to my mate” Leo says. All 3 of the dark turtles look at him in shock. Dark Raph asks: “What did he do?”. All of the turtles and Master Splinter look at Leo and he answers: “Your brother raped my mate Michelangelo”.
