Not only my head though, I feel a burning and stinging pain in my right arm, I can feel warm liquid on it as well. With slight hesitation I look and, as I expected, am sick. A large sheet of steel is sticking out of my bloody mangled green skin. Looking away I try to prevent the puke in my throat.
To keep my mind off the right side of me I take in my surroundings, not much of a difference when it comes to sickly. The machine seems to be on full power and is so loud I can't hear the whistle anymore but I still feel it. What's left of the pathetic "army" is dangling off of poles and pillars. Being sucked slowly but surely one by one into the vortex. Then, remembering my point in life, I look for my brothers. All's well!.... well you know, except the out of control never ending doom that's trying to kill every thing in existence, but is working with the few it has. They're working their way towards me. Bad idea, I'm so close that anyone whose not thinking will last about a millisecond before disappearing. Embarrassing and painfully enough, the only reason I'm not mincemeat yet is because of my punctured arm. Musta torn straight through when I landed.... Thank goodness for it!
With my free hand I try to get their attention and shoo them away. After a bit it works out slightly and Donny stops and points at me. After he says a few things I see Raph blowup. He's pointing me now too and is saying something. He gives a disgusted look and, I believe, points at my arm. I think he wants to set me free from my "steel prison". O no! Looks like Don agreed because their moving again. I try to yell out and tell them to scram and get out, but my voice is to horse and the wind is to loud. So I depend on my single arm to save the day. And it fails me. I try everything, but the guys still get to me after a bit of struggle.
Raph looks at me with, what is that sympathy?! No... Worry! Ugh! I see him scream, "Give me a sec bro!!! I'll help you!!"
He grabs my arm and pulls. The pain shoots through my body like lightning and I scream out. So loudly that I could actually hear my self. Instantly he's pulled away by Mikey who looks like he's going to sob in a second. Raph's rage of death is no match for our baby brothers emotions and cools down after seeing Mikes face. He holds him and gives him a resolved look as if saying, "It's the only way little brother."
Letting go of Mikey, Raph motions for Don to help him out. Obliging Donny finds his way over and positions him self on my shoulders so I don't squirm. Before Raph pulls I try to give Mike a reassuring grin, and throw a thumbs up with my left hand. He trys and fails to return it. Then, Raph pulls. They try over and over to pull it out, but it just gets harder and harder. It's hopeless, I'm only getting out from a harsh force. Like.... Maybe something heavy falling from the building. On cue the big Metal brute comes flying. His face twisted and demented with horror, anger, and disaster. He hits us with such force we all go sprawling in different directions. The spiked up sheet is torn out of me, but I don't scream. I don't think Mikey could take it... I can feel the blood soak my arm and my muscles run ragged. It hurts like mad and the bottom half of my arm is numb. Quickly I tear my bandana tail off and wrap it around my arm tightly. That should hold for a bit.
Quickly I look for the others. Raph is helping Don, preventing him from falling in.
Ok, good! Now Mikey, I look every where but I can't find him. Starting to panic I find my way to Raph and Don.
"WHERE'S MIKEY?!?" I ask showing my concern.
They look at each other, then around, then at me. Trying not to completely lose it I signal them to split up and search.
We look every where, high, low, midway. I begin to break and think he fell into the purple abyss, until Donny signals me. Sighing with relief I find Raph and point to where Don is. In a flash he's gone, I know he's the most protective over Mike so I'm not all that surprised about his reaction. Following in suit I make my way over to my baby brothers, making sure that lunatic of a alien, Shredder, doesn't come flying from the sky again.
I get over to them and am slammed with worry. Mike looks awful, looking at Donnie I can see he's worried as well.
Raph has him in his arms and stands. Nodding towards the large door we make our way to the exit. Don and I pull at the edges of the door and start to slide it open. Suddenly I feel something hit me in the back of my neck.
"WE FINISH TOGETHER YOU BLUE FREAK!" I hear some one say and I fall limp from the hit in the pressure point. I feel a hard hand grip my shoulder and see claws protruding from its knuckles. Oh no no no no no no no no no!! Please no! We were almost there!! Let me go please!!
I want scream as I get pulled further
And farther back from my designation. I can't see, but I feel a three fingered reptilian hand grab me, then another, and another. And I feel the tugawar start... Ouch!! MY SHOULDER!!! I feel my bandanna start to slip off and my mind Greta hazy. NO LEONARDO YOU CAN'T PASS OUT!!!
