TW: Emetophobia, vomit and suicide. Pharmacophobia too<3

    The Amorphophallus Titanum is the tallest, second biggest flower in the world. Known as the Corpse Flower, Titan Flower, and Towering Flower. It usually takes 6-8 years to grow, but has taken over 50 years before. He couldn't believe he was standing right in front of one now! Leo giggled, taking in the smell of death. It was humid in there, but Amorphophallus Titanum's are known for creating a heat around itself for it's corpse-like smell to travel further and attract more bugs to kill. Plants at its smartest! But something with that last sniff felt strange. And now he realized it.

     Leo stood there by a tree in the forest again, staring at his hands. Everything was blurry, and he felt nauseous. Lightheaded, too, as something dripped from his forehead onto the dried dirt. Humid, and had that same stench of death. But when he looked around, he pictured all sorts of deaths. People hanging themselves, the girl he saw before and the knife, not to mention all sorts of other creative suicides. But.. what was.. blood. He was.. bleeding? He rubbed his eyes, and they adjusted. As he studied his now detailed surroundings, he saw his pill bottles spilled on the ground. But not only his, who's did he have, too? They couldn't have been his, could they? Shit-
Leonardo quickly collapsed onto a tree, vomiting violently. His entire body felt weak, his entire body ached and shook. He held back tears as he spat out blood. Now he had a nose bleed, blobs of blood dripping slowly off his lips. Leo collapsed to the ground, his knees dipped in the vomit but he couldn't move. He felt scared, terrified. He wanted that fear to end, so he grabbed his bag and pulled out a long, metal object. But something grabbed his shoulders and held him back.

   "Leo, are you alright?!" Mike asked, hugging Leo tightly on the ground, they both sat on the white tiles. Nardo blinked in confusion, sniffling as he wiped off some of his tears. He stared at the floor in front of him, seeing vomit yet no blood. He held out his hand and wiped his nose, though no blood brushed against it. What was happening? "Leo!!"
"Oh.." Leo looked over at Michael and smiled. "I'm fine. Not sure what.. happened."

Michael let go after some hesitation, unsure if it was honesty or not. Mike held out a hand and Leo grabbed it, they helped each other up.

The two left the greenhouse, to home. A place to relax. But don't worry, Leo would be back.


        Now, Leo dipped his head back underneath the bathtub water. All he wore was shorts, in the freezing water. He tried not to giggle as the ice cubes  brushed against his sides, tickling him. But soon enough he'd release his mind to open up to these Visions.

        The sky was a dark red, everyone's faces were blurry. He was in some sort of.. dystopian New York City. He recognized the shapes that surrounded him, his brothers. Everyone was in panic as someone floated in the sky miles up. A yellow aura illuminating the sky around her. She held out a hand, and veins spread out of the ground and into the sky like skyscrapers. What the fuck?
For a split second, he saw everyones faces. April was in the sky, Donnie was beside him, Casey stood on the other side of Raph over by the side, but there was.. Raph. Raph was pinned against the wall, bleeding. He was.. SHIT!!  HE WAS FUCKING BLEEDING!!

"RAPH!!" Leonardo screamed, sprinting off into an immediate dash towards his brother, sobbing.

Raphael was pinned against the wall with a spear cracked inside his stomach, Raph didn't speak. He simply shook, his hands hovering over the blade as he stared blankly at the ground. Blood dripped from not only his wound, but also his mouth. Where was Mike? Michael wasn't there. Shit- well at least Donnie can help heal Ra-..

Leo turned to feel his heart shrink violently, it beat faster though it felt as if it had stopped, or been crushed. He couldn't process the moment; but.. Donnie's.. shit shit shit, this couldn't be happening- he didn't just..

Casey screamed as he shoved Leo to the side, running after his fiancé, who's head was just very beautifully blown off. 🥰

Casey held Donatello's numb, lifeless body in his arms as both their legs folded and fell to the ashy grounds.

This couldn't be happening, it couldn't be..

Raph groaned as he ripped the twisted, broken spear out of his stomach. Leo caught him, but couldn't take his eyes off of Donnie and Casey. Raph seemingly couldn't, either.

"I.. I guess you owe Michael $20 now.." Leo said, he wasn't sure why he did, but he did. And it made sense to him for some strange reason.

     Leo rose from the water after violently choking on water, jumping up and stumbling over to the mirror. What a downfall. Pathetic if anything.
