Ashley's pov

"Tell us where it is," a rough voice demanded slapping aspen hard enough to black his eye.

"I told you they burned up in a fire years ago!" Aspen tried to explain looking towards me.

"Leave him alone everything burned in a fire with our father!" I yelled pulling against my ropes that held my hands behind my back.

A hard slap came across my face I felt my lip bust but I couldn't show weakness. I won't let the break me.

"I'll be back and when I come back I better get answers," the man growled walking away.

"Ashley don't break, I need you to be strong ok? I'll get you out of this," aspen promised.

We stayed tied up for hours once a rhino and warthog came by to try to scare us but I couldn't be scared, I was too tired and too numb to be scared.
The warthog was making jokes about us while he fixed his Mohawk looking in a window when loud crashes almost like glass breaking sounds came from the floor above us.

"Bebop rocksteady get up here now it's the turtles!" Bebop's radio went off making them stop and run out the room.

"Ashley now's our chance," aspen whispered yelled towards me sliding his chair back to a low table that had glass beakers.

"Aspen don't if we get caught trying to leave we'll be separated," the words barely were barely out of my mouth before Aspen broke the beaker and cut his ropes.

"Here hold still," he began to cut my ropes off glancing over my shoulder every now and then making sure no one was coming in.

"Got it!" He exclaimed after a minute.

Thats when the lights went out and we froze, I'm terrified of the dark and Aspen has bad vision in the dark so we're stuck.
I felt Aspen pull me close and wrap his arms around me protectively.

"Donnie I found them!"

Me and Aspen froze hearing the voices but we both knew what we had to do. Aspen picked up some sharp lab tools and I grabbed the heavy chair I had been tied up in.
We heard the footsteps running down the hall towards us I glanced at Aspen and he nodded a go for it.
I kept my eyes on the door trying to keep myself from shaking, I have to stay strong.
Two big figures ran into the room one heading to Aspen and the other one towards me. Aspen threw the tools at the figure and it cut it some making them recoil slightly.
I could make out two hands reaching for me and with all my might I hit them in the head with the chair breaking it to pieces.
Whatever it was trying to grab me reached for me again but I didn't care if it was here to help or harm I twisted their arm when they reached again.

"Raph hurry I got him just grab her and go!" A voice yelled running out of the room.

My eyes widened and all I heard was Aspen yelling my name before everything went black.
