The Family You Needed (Book 2)- TMNT 2014/2016- Leo x Reader

11- Plans

Leo's POV

I sat alone in my room for a while after I gathered Raph and Mikey to help Donnie and I make an escape plan for Y/n. They watched the video as well, Raph growling and breaking a hole in the wall afterwards, Mikey trembling as his eyes filled with tears, and both agreeing that we needed to get her out.

Her screams.

They still echoed through my head, the pure pain and anger that was released through them. We brought her here, to our world, for a better life. And now look. She's captured, being tortured, and I don't know if we can get her out.

I wiped away a few stray tears that started to fall and lay down in my bed for the night.

Though I didn't sleep a wink.

Your POV

You no longer knew how long you had been in that cell. Karai still came in every once in a while to question you, but between the blood loss and the starvation, you could barely form a thought, let alone string a sentence together. And since your suit was so ripped, you were constantly shivering as well.

The only thoughts that you still had were about the turtles.

"I hope they're okay."

"Remember, you're doing this to keep them safe."

"They saved you, now it's your turn."

That's what you kept telling yourself. And it was true. You needed to keep them safe, so sacrificing yourself was the best option.

The burn on your side was hot and stung with every movement you made, the rest of the cuts scabbed over and hurting. The pain was so intense that you had become numb, but you were pretty sure that your side was infected. But you would be fine.

You had to be fine.

The cell clicked and in walked an angry Karai. You weakly lifter your head but dropped it as soon as you saw the knife in her hand.

"Father wishes to speak with you, bitch," she snarled. Someone else entered the cell and untied you, grabbing you by the arms and dragging you out of the cell. You felt a pop in your shoulder. You whimpered in pain as they dragged you out of the cell and through the mazes of hallways. You got thrown roughly into a room and landed on your stomach, wincing at the pain in your ribs.

"Maybe I'm more beat up than I thought."

"Y/n L/n," you heard. You peeked through your hair to see the Shredder sitting on his throne, a white bandage visible on his shoulder. You couldn't resist the urge and smirked.

"What's up Mr. Cheese Grater? How's the shoulder?" You said sarcastically. He stood and walked swiftly towards you, his armour gleaming in the moonlight that shone through the window behind him. The claws on his suit made a noise as they popped out beside your throat. He drew back his other hand and struck you across the face, making your head whip to the side.

"Your insolence will be your demise," he growled. You spat out a mouthful of blood to the side and huffed. He slowly drew his claws across your cheek, leaving two long cuts across it and making you whimper in pain, still barely able to keep your eyes open. "This is your last chance little girl. Either tell me the location of the turtles and their rat master; or I will kill you right here and now."

Leo's POV

We made a plan. It's was going down tonight. We couldn't afford to wait any longer, or else Y/n might be dead. My face held no emotion, all thoughts pushed to the back of my mind in fear that I would break if I thought too deep about that video of Y/n.

I sheathed my katanas as the others all grabbed their weapons, their faces serious. I turned to them.

"So. We all know the plan?"

"Yeah," they all echoed. Donnie was to stay back a bit since he was still the most injured, I was getting out Y/n, Raph and Mikey would distract Shredder and the foot soldiers. If it came to it, I would help take down Shredder then get Donnie to grab Y/n.

"My sons," I turned to see Master Splinter walking towards us.

"Sensei," I bowed. He patted my shoulder as I stood straight.

"I wish you well on your mission. Bring Y/n back safe. And be careful, all of you. It is dangerous to go directly into the lair of the enemy. Be cautious. And use your heads," he advised. We all nodded and the others began to leave the lair. I went to follow but stopped when Sensei called me.

"Leonardo," he said. I turned. "Although she may be alive, and the wounds may heal within time, there is more than just physical healing to be done," he said. I nodded. He gave a small smile before turning to leave to his room. I thought about what he said, and knew he was right. Although her wounds might heal, the mental scars left behind would take longer to fix.

As I left the lair, I ran alongside my brothers to Shredders lair. We stood and watched the place for a bit to see if we could see movement. After a few moments, we could see doors open and someone enter. It was two foot soldiers. I crouched down and squinted, seeing something being dragged along behind them.

Y/n.

"Guys," I whispered. They all looked.

"Oh God. Is that-..." started Donnie.

"Y/n," breathed Raph. We all hopped closer to the window and clung to the walls, peeking over the window ledge and waiting for the perfect time to strike. We watched them drag her in and set her on her knees. She looked terrible. Blood was caked on her whole body, her suit ripped to nothing more than shreds.

She wasn't moving very much and I saw Shredder stand and march over to her. He extended the claws on his suit and slapped her hard across the face, then dragged his claws along her cheek; leaving behind two new cuts. I felt my blood boil. I looked towards my brothers, all three of them with angry and determined looks plastered onto their faces.

"Let's move in."
