Donatello, I Can't

Chapter 11

  I stopped Donny in the middle of the forest. I facepalmed, " How in the world am I going to get you up into the canopy?"

  He smiled and kissed my cheek. Pointing to himself, " I'm a ninja remember sweety? I can jump between trees. I can manage, just don't rush off."

  I nodded and sprung upwards. He jumped from tree to tree. I looked over as we almost reached the canopy and Donny was keeping perfect pace. He did a final flip and we both landed at the same time on a surface. He was breathing a little funny.

  I shook his shoulder, " Donny, we have to go straight to my parents house."

  He nodded and I took his hand. I lead him past all the other fairies who gave us looks, but upon seeing my hair, bowed. When we reached the house, me and Donny flipped up and I knocked on the door. My eyes widened and I pushed Donny to the side a little and put a finger to my mouth telling him to remain silent.

  My dad answered the door. When he saw me, his eyes widened and he ungulfed me in a hug. I wasn't much for having quality time with my family. After I ran away and basically cut ties with them because I didn't want to be the prodigal child.

  I guess I looked like I needed help because I looked over and Donny had his hand on his staff and a look that asked if I wanted him to take care of this man. I shook my head and he removed his hand. My dad pulled away, " I have missed you so much. I wish this reunion was under better circumstances. "

  I smiled because all was forgiven when I saw him again. " I do too. I missed you so much Daddy." I hugged him tightly. I pulled away and chuckled, " Daddy, there is someone I would like you to meet. I love him very much and it would mean the world to me if you could accept him as he is. He is a mutant. Please meet, my boyfriend, Donatello Hamato."

  At this Donny came out of the shadows. My dad was taken aback at his appearance. I walked from behind him and to Donny's side. I gave him a squeeze and smiled at my dad. My dad chuckled and brought Donny into his right arm and gave him THAT hug. " Well, if my Lillian loves him, the he's a son to me."

  I rolled my eyes and pushed my dad angrilly, " What about mom!? What the hell is going on?!"

  He frowned, " We don't know. She has been waiting to see you. She is in the sick room."

  I grabbed Donny's hand and I rushed us to the sick room. In there, I fell into Donny at the sight of her frail body, deteriorating in the bed. I uncupped my hands and went to her. Knew what was wrong and looked to Donny, " Please go. I need to have a talk with her?"

  He nodded and left. I tured to my mom and stood up. " Why the hell haven't you fed Mom?"

  She smiled innocently, " I forgot?"

  I huffed, " Bullshit! Tell me why. Now!"

  She sighed, " I am tired of hiding it and I don't want to do that anymore."

  I sighed, " One to two times a year Mom! That's all it takes. You still have a good fifty to sixty years ahead of you. Please. I am not ready. And neither are you, please Mom. I can't take the thrown yet. I am not ready. If anything, why won't you give the thrown to Rina. She IS first born after all. I am second, I have no right to take her rightful place."

  My mom sighed, " I fear your sister has lost her wits. She wishes to marry an immortal. If she does, he will take over and our kingdom will fall!"

  She coughed. I stuck my head out of the room and talked to my dad, " I need to take her for a night. DO NOT do anything to Donny, Dad. Be nice or you will have to deal with me when I get back. And trust me Daddy, it is not going to be pretty." He nodded his head and I locked the door behind me.

  I grabbed my mom bridal style and took her to the window. I flew out and hovered. I let her go and as if instincts took over, she turned into her pure form and shot out of the woods. I shifted and sinse I wasn't hungry, I was able to control myself. I flew after her to make sure that she was able to control herself. She needed only one feeding. Last time she did this, she had five and got really sick anyways.

  I flew after my mom at amazing speeds, mostly worried about leaving Donny with my dad.
