Purple Ecstasy

Head Over Heels

POV: MIKEY

It was my turn to do nightly patrol. I was just skateboarding around on the rooftops, watching NYC it's in finest hours. The city was still kinda busy at night, but not as crowded.

I heard some faint yelling and crashes coming from an alley a few blocks down, so I decided to go check it out.

When I got there, there was a girl lying on the ground, and 3 guys were running away.

They were carrying her purse, and some other belongings. I tried to hurry as fast as I could to stop them, using my kusari-fundo to wrap their bodies together and hang them from a street lamp.

"Stealing isn't nice you, guys!" I yelled to them, with my arms crossed. They all grunted. They had dropped the girls belongings as I whipped them up onto the lamp, so I picked them up and headed to the girl.

"Excuse me, miss, are you okay?" I asked, slowly walking toward the girl. She was still lying there, not moving. Not responding.

I poked her, trying to see if she'd wake up. That seemed to roll her over a bit as I saw her face. She was covered in bruises and scratches, as if those guys had beaten her.

"H-Hello? Argh- what happened?" The girl said, her voice shaky. This startled me, but I quickly calmed myself. "I think you were robbed, but I got your stuff back!" I handed her stuff to her, and she looked at me, confused.

"What are you?" She didn't seem freaked out by my appearance, which was shocking. "I'm a turtle! The names Michelangelo, but you can call me Mikey!" I reached my hand out to her to help her up. When she grabbed my hand, chills took over my body.

"I'm Gwendolyn, but you can call me Gwen." She looked at me and smiled. I got this weird feeling in my stomach, and my body felt warm.

She suddenly collapsed into my arms, falling unconscious again. My face was really hot now, but I didn't know why.

I grabbed my phone from the pocket of my sash and dialed Raph's number. Maybe he would know what to do.

"Leonardo, speaking, how may I assist you this fine evening?"

"WHA- LEO?! WHERE'S RAPH?"

"Leo: Relax. He's right here. ~Raph, wake up! It's Mikey! -Raph: gimme that. Hello?"

"RAPH! There's a girl here in town, she was robbed and beaten pretty bad by three guys! Her face is bleeding, and it's covered with bruises. She was unconscious when I found her, and woke up and she was talking to me until she fell into my arms again, WHAT DO I DO?"

"Calm down, Mike. Where are you?"

"I'm two blocks from Big Mama's... HURRY."

"We're on our way. Stay where you are. ~LEO STOP THAT!"

I sat down behind some trash cans with Gwen in my lap. My whole body was really hot, and my heart was pounding in my chest. Everytime I looked at her face, it's like my heart would stop for a second. Was I sick?
