CHAPTER 4: Ice

Raph:
I awaken on the cold, concrete floors. Almost complete darkness. I feel around, those rat bastards have taken my weapons.
Where'd my brothers go? They must have a plan to save us. At least to save me. I'm their brother, they'd never leave me to die.
Then my hand brushes against someone's leather jacket. "Y/N!" I shout. She stirs slightly, turning her head to the side and sighing. "Wake up. You need to wake up, now." I demand, shaking her arm slightly.

Y/N:
"Wake up." I hear a faint voice. "Wake up. You need to wake up now." I groan, opening my eyes a bit then squeezing them shut. My head is pounding, begging for mercy after so many blows to the skull. A hand shakes my arm. I flick it away, groaning again.
"Go away, will ya? I need some damn sleep. My head is killing me."
"Someone will actually be killing you if you don't wake up and find a way out of here with me." It's Raph's voice. Huh, they decided to keep us captive together. We have limited cages, it makes sense.
"Will you help me escape these guys if I get us out of here?" I ask, hopefully. He raises an eyebrow.
"How'd you even get into this mess in the first place?"
"My Papa was the leader of the Family until he died a few years ago. Ace, my brother, is the new leader of our Family and he rules with an iron fist. Not as tough as our pseudo leader, Looney though. Don "Looney" Johnson. He's my boyfriend, unfortunately."
"If you don't like him why not break up?"
"He beats the shit out of me every day. He has too much to drink and rants to me or treats me as a punching bag. I'm always given the worst and most boring tasks to do and blamed when it goes wrong. If I try to leave he might kill me."
I blurt out. Why am I spilling my guts to this guy? I barely know him. He'll probably leave me here to die anyways.
"That's awful..." he sits speechless. "What's your name anyways?" I introduce myself and so does he, although I already know his name.
"I hate the gang. I'm treated like garbage by them and can't get out. It's all I know. I have no family or friends outside of the Family. I don't like being evil." I admit. Man, I'm really spilling my guts to this guy, words spewing out of my mouth like I sprung a leak and can't stop. Perhaps, it's because I know my time is up soon. Ace and Looney will be back to deal with us.
"I'm going to get us out of here." Raph promises. I stare at him in surprise. Really? "But I'm going to need your help."
"Of course!" I say, letting a smile escape my lips. This guy might not be too bad.
We're both weaponless, totally unprepared for battle against a bunch of guys armed to their teeth with all sorts of blades and guns and smoke bombs. I inform him the key should be where he found it last time, but it's out of our reach.
A lightbulb moment. I reach into my hair and pull out a bobby pin. Perfect. Now if I can just find a way to finesse my hand between the bars and twist my wrist back and pick the lock.
I begin to pick it when a door slams open and shuts. "We're back, Sugar Plum and freak show." Ace calls out. I toss the pin to Raph. Ace towers menacingly in front of the cage door. "You really hurt my man Looney, you two. Now you'll have to pay." I gulp and turn to Raph. His glare doesn't break from staring into Ace's eyes.
"Do you accept ass whooping as payment cuz when I get out of here so help me God." Raph rambles.
"Y/N, you're gonna have to ice freakshow then I'll ice you. Or I can torture you and freakshow then ice you both myself. Your pick." Fuck. We're gonna die.
