I ran up the stairs to the top floor and ran down the hall. I heard laughing coming from certain rooms but not mine. I opened the door Mr heard giggling coming from mine and Pablo's room. I set my bag on the counter and closed the front quietly. I opened the door slowly and saw Alma on top of Pablo.
"You're so pretty." Pablo flirted.
"No, you are." Alma giggled. I pushed the door opens further making it cream and then turned towards the door.
"Jasmine?!" Alma exclaimed. I teared up and started again. Not because Alma was on top of my brother, she likes him, and I respect that. I'm still sad about what happened. Alma pushed herself off of Pablo and he sat up. I cried and Alma ran towards me. I hugged me and just cried. Pablo sat up and Alma pulled away.
"Hey, what happened?" Pablo wiped away my tears.
"They know." I said.
"Know?' Know what?" Pablo asked. I continued crying, it was too painful to have the person I love angry at me and all of my new friends that I called family angry with me, too.
"We ran away." I answered. Alma and Pablo looked at each other and they hugged me. Alma knows our secret about running away, and we know she won't tell anyone. "Raph, is super angry, Mikey's so sad, and Leo..." I said. "I love him and he's angry with me." I continued crying.
"What?" Pablo asked. Alma slapped his chest and she just hugged me. We didn't tell her about the turtles, since that's something she can't know. Along with the dimension thing. I sat in the couch leaning on Alma's shoulder and with a blanket around me. I wonder if Leo knows I'm gone now.
Leo's POV
I walked towards my room after fighting with Raph. He's angry with Jasmine, and I am, too, but not as much as he is. I wish she said something. But, I don't know why her and Pablo did, but I hope she'll tell me. I opened my door no didn't see Jasmine anywhere.
"Jasmine?" I called. "Jasmine?" I called again. No, no, no, where is she?! "Jasmine!" I yelled. Why am I panicking, why am I so worried. I've never been like this in my life. Mikey peeked in my room and he didn't see Jasmine either.
"Where'd she go?" Mikey asked.
"I don't know, but we're going up town. And split up." I ordered as I walked out of my room. I can't loose the girl that I'm in love with.
Jasmine's POV
I kept on leaning on Alma's shoulder as she petted my head. I held a cup of tea in my hand as Pablo made some food for me. He kneeled in front of me and set the plate next to me.
"Eat, okay?" Pablo said. I nodded and he stood up. Alma grabbed my hand and rubbed it. I grabbed the sandwich Pablo made and took a bite out of it.
"Feeling better?" Alma asked.
"Un pocoquito." I answered. I took another bite of my sandwich and a sip of my coffee. Alma turned the TV on and put on a combat movie. Alma got up and went over to Pablo to talk to him.
I just watched the movie and didn't want to hear what they said. The power went out and I looked up at ceiling. Probably a light post or something. I looked besides the couch where the door was and there was still light in the hallway. Weird. Why is there no light in here but light in the hall? I stood up and just thought. Does everyone else have light on? Pablo walked next to me and stopped.
"Weird." He said.
"I know." I agreed. Alma stood next to me and looked around. We turned around and walked towards kitchen. "Probably something wrong with our outlet or something-" I assumed. The glass broke making Alma scream and Pablo and I cover our heads. We turned around and saw Foot soldiers unsheathing their swords. Pablo made fighting stance and Alma pulled me behind Pablo. She held me tightly and I held her arms.
"Stand down, little boy." We heard a woman's voice. She walked forward and showed herself in the moonlight. Karai. Why is she here? Why if the Foot here anyway?!
"I'm not standing down anytime soon." Pablo shook his head. Karai looked at a soldier and pointed her head towards Pablo.
I tried to move but Pablo pushed me back. The soldier walked in front of Pablo and stood flexed a bit. Pablo threw a few punches, but the solider blocked them or dodged them. He grabbed Pablo's arm and punched it then his stomach. He let go of Pablo's arm and kicked his face.
"Pablo!" Alma exclaimed. I let go of Alma going to help Pablo up, but the solider pushed me back. He chuckled threw a punch at me.
I leaned back, dosing the punch. He did it again and I grabbed his arm and punched his stomach then face. He fell over and I helped Pablo up. He winced in pain and Alma held his arm. I walked in front of them scanning all the soldiers. Karai ordered something in another language. I wasn't ready and the soldier punched my rib and tried to again, but I blocked it and punched him across his face. Another guard grabbed my arm and punched my rib then my face. Pablo pushed his the soldier with his making him fall. I placed a hand on the side of my face. Karai walked up to me then slapped the other side of my face. I fell on the ground and tried to get up. Karai kicked me down in the ground and I groaned in pain. Pablo crawled over to me and placed a hand on my back. Karai turned to Alma and I couldn't Karai hurt Alma.
I wrapped my ankles around Karai's heel and pushed my legs in different directions. She fell and I pointed the door with my head. She ran out the door and quickly closed it. Pablo and I sighed with relief that she's okay.
"Jasmine!" I heard a distant familiar voice. I looked out the broken window and saw Leo and his brother running towards us.
Pablo and I smiled. Karai stood up and looked at me then the turtles. She picked me up and pushed me towards the window. She unsheathed her sword then put it by my throat. I gasped that I didn't want to breathe. Pablo heard grunt and heard his footsteps trying to get to me.
"Jump another roof and I slit her throat." Karai threatened. I gulped and looked at Leo which he was just one building away. I heard Pablo growl which made me tense up. Karai brought her sword closer to my neck and I closed my eyes. Please, God, don't let her kill me. Please. I opened my eyes again and saw Leo's eyes with fear and worry.
"Pablo! Jasmine!" I heard Roberto and Gustavo yell. The front flew open and Roberto and Gustavo were shocked. Karai's sword got closer to my neck that I felt blood run down my neck then to my chest. The soldiers turned to Roberto and Gustavo and pointed their swords at them. I heard another blade be unsheathed and Pablo grunt. Karai started away back from the window and I followed.
"Kill them." Karai ordered her men. The soldiers turned to Leo and his brother and the got in their fighting stance.
"Call the police." I mouthed slowly to Roberto and Gustavo. Karai threw a smoke pellet on the ground and I was picked up and taken somewhere along with Pablo, fearing for my life.
