Blue is for Honesty (Book One)

Chapter Seventeen- Gone?

Raph sighed, lightly tossing his T-phone onto the kitchen table. "They're still not answering their phones." He told his brothers. Leo pressed his lips in a thin aggravated line. "Calm down, Leo. They're at a theatre. The rule there is to silence your phones." Donnie assured. "Yeah dude. Plus they sell Pizza there. You know how girls are with pizza." Mikey said.

"I'm pretty sure that's just you." Raph stated. Leo pulled out his T-phone in an attempt to contact his girlfriend. He groaned as it went to voicemail. "I should've let her bring her Ninjato. Or better yet, not have let her go at all!" He chucked his T-phone at the wall, slightly wincing as the screen cracked. Donnie scoffed and narrowed his eyes angrily at Leo.

"Cut yourself some slack, Fearless." Raph said, placing his hand on his brother's shoulder. "Yeah dude." Mikey agreed. "She wants to live, Leo. Not just stay alive. You can't just keep her held hostage in the lair because of one tiny incident. She's not made of glass." Donnie added. Leo's sapphire eyes softened and all of the anger he had in himself dissipated.

He sighed. "You know what, you guys are right. Olivia is her own person. If she wants to stay out late, she can. I'm not her boss." Leo gave a calm smile and sat down. "That last sentence was shocking." Raph smirked. Leo simply chuckled. Suddenly Donnie's phone rang. He quickly looked at the caller I.D before answering.

"Hey, April!" He said a little too excitedly. "I mean, hey April." His voice got a notch deeper in a mild attempt to sound cool. "I mean..." April swiftly cut him off. "Donnie! Stop talking! Is Liv there?" Donnie's brow furrowed a bit. "Um... No. She isn't with you?" April pulled the phone away from her ear and said a few... Creative words. "She's not with them either." She told Casey, though it sounded muffled to Donnie.

"My God this is bad." She said, her voice clear now. "Why?" Donnie asked. April took a deep breath. "Karai and Winter attacked us. They knocked Casey and I out. Then they must've taken Olivia." Donnie sent a small sympathetic glance toward Leo. "Okay, April. You and Casey come right back to the lair." He sighed before ending the call.

"Guys, it's April Casey and Olivia." He began. "They were attacked by Karai. And Winter during their theatre night." "That's just sick!" Mikey chimed. Donnie turned to Leo. "They.... They took Olivia." He said, slowly. Everything around Leo seemed to just stop. It was as if time itself melted. He couldn't breathe, he couldn't think. Olivia was gone. The center of his existence... Gone."

"We gotta save Liv, dudes!" Mikey exclaimed. "Yeah, but in order to do that, we need a plan. We can't just waltz into Shredder's lair without one. We'll get mauled." Donnie stated. "What's the plan, Fearless?" Raph asked, turning to face his older blue clad brother. But he didn't expect that spot to be vacant. He looked around a bit before he actually figured it out."

"Crap!" He hissed, leaping up out of his seat. Raph rushed to the living room where he could see Leo making his way to the turnstiles, unsheathing his Katana blades on the way. "Oh no you don't." He muttered. Raph ran over to Leo, tackling him before he got to the exit. "Get off of me, Raph!" Leo demanded. "No! You can't just barge into the Shredder's lair and wing it. If you do, you're going on a death mission!" Leo continued to struggle.

"I gotta go save Olivia!" He groaned. "We're upset too, Leo but thus isn't helping anything. You keep forgetting that we love Olivia too. As a sister, but nonetheless.This kind of mission takes time." Leo stopped struggling abruptly. "Time?" He asked. "TIME?!" With a mighty shove, he pushed Raph off if him. "Olivia doesn't have time Raph. She's in Shredder's grasp. Just imagine what he could be doing to her right now. At this exact moment!" Leo hissed. "I'd rather not." Raph muttered. "EXACTLY!!!" Leo exclaimed.

"We have to get her now. We can formulate a plan on the road!" Raph raised an eye ridge. "Dude, what is your malfunction?" Raph asked. "That's a terrible plan." "And so is sitting around waiting for a magically foolproof plan to float upon our table." The brothers narrowed their eyes at one another. If looks could kill, they'd both had been long gone.

"Dudes, dudes! Chill." Mikey demanded. "None of this is going to help us save our female Mr. Incredible!" "Disregarding the weird nickname, Mikey is right." Donnie agreed. "You guys are both correct. We do need to save Olivia as swiftly as possible, but we also need to formulate a plan that will most likely not get us killed. Now, if we work together, that might just happen." Donnie reasoned.

Leo sighed. "Fine. But I can't promise I'll be the most focused turtle in the group." Raph shrugged. "As long as you don't make any dumb suggestions, you can be floating around as a spirit and I wouldn't care."
