Challenges, Decisions, & Losses (TMNT FanFic Book 3)

Chapter 3

Victoria's POV

I was trapped, in dark room. I tried to use my powers... nothing. I didn't know how I got here. There were no doors, only a single ray of sunlight passed through a small window.

"Help! Anybody!" I yelled out. No one came.

Then four figures appeared in the room with me. The turtles.

"Guys! What...How did we end up here?" I asked, for some reason I felt anger towards them.

"Victoria, are you ok?" Leo asked.

"What's it to you, freak?" I found myself saying, I dint know what was going on.

"What's gotten into ya?" Raph asked.

I don't respond. I attacked the, instead. I tried to stop, but I couldn't! I felt revenge, anger, and sadness at the same time. I attacked them until they were gone. All of them.

I felt myself become in control of my actions again. I fell to my knees in front of them.

"No! No, no NO!" I yelled out, hitting the ground with my fists with each no. Then the scenery changed. I was in an alley.

"Victoria!" Someone shouted.

"Jorge!" I ran towards his voice. He was being held by..."Louis! Let him go!" Anger boiled in me.

"Aww, is that anyway to talk to your partner in crime?" Louis said. I growled.

I advanced towards him, but instead of sending and ice spike from the ground through Louis... it went through Jorge.

"Jorge! No, this isn't real, I would never hurt you. Please be a dream!" Luis disappeared as I caught Jorge as he fell.

"Victoria...." he said weakly "its...." he took his last breath.

"Nooo!" I yelled out.

I awoke with a start, on the floor. Everything and everyone was out cold. It was freezing in here, I could see my own breath.

"Guys... Donnie?" I said trying to wake him.

"Victoria?" I heard Master Splinter behind me,

"Sensei! I-I dint mean to, I'm sorry!" I said frantically.

"It's alright, my child," he said calmly, "come we must heat up this place, and get them warmed up."

"I'm sorry..." I whispered to them.

Once I got them covered in blankets, I proceeded to set up little flames here and there, to try and warm up the place. It slowly returned to its normal temperature.

"Victoria, you must listen carefully," Splinter said,"your powers are growing. You will face tougher battles both with inside and outside forces, be prepared."

"Yes, sensei, it's just. I don't know if I can, I can rarely control my temper. How am I going to control my powers?" I said.

"You will always face challenges, until you learn to control yourself, you will not be able to win," Splinter said.

"I understand," I said. Splinter nodded and looked around at the turtles, Cody, Alice, and Jorge.

"Let us hope they awaken soon," he said, returning to his room. I sighed and sat on the couch, hugging my knees.

~~~~~~25 minutes later~~~~~~~

"Uhh, what happened?" I rushed over to Donnie who was getting up.
