TMNT The Fallen

Chapter Eleven Explanation Part One

So many thoughts were traveling through my mind at the speed of light. April and I were now a couple. She was asleep so I couldn't make much noise. But I also had to figure out what was wrong with me. Also, my brothers had gotten so much bigger. And scarier. They looked like demons. I twitched. My eyes dilated as i became deeper in thought. I was in my lab. Why did everything occur in my lab? But I had to control this. Whatever it was. I quickly snapped out of it before anything happened. Now was the perfect time to figure out what had happened to me. I pondered a while. I thought about everything that had happened. But nothing made sense. Unless one of them bit me. I couldn't be infected. I mean. I haven't turned into a wretched demon. I was still a regular mutant. However, something had been occurring. Something unusually different inside of my body. When I went to save April from my enormously mutated and demonic brothers. I almost had no strength. I thought we would both die there. But something inside of me fueled me to get out of there and save her. And I felt energized and ready to fight. But my intuition told me to get out of there. I didn't want to see her hurt. The vile! The mysterious substance I drank before I passed out on the lab floor. I don't know what it was. And there was no way to find out now. But if I had gotten infected. The substance from that vile must have mixed with the virus. Stopping it in it's tracks. But what did that do to me?

I ran some tests. Turns out. I was bitten. And I did have the virus. I was also right about the substance stopping it in it's tracks but. What I didn't understand is how it affected me. The blood tests said that somehow it affected my nervous system. And that's why I had the burst of energy and anger. It was uncontrollable. But it was motivated. If I was motivated my something. I had no choice but to fight. And possibly kill. No matter who it was. Hopefully, I could find a cure. But for now. My brothers. I had to focus on them. I couldn't let them get any worse. Mikey said something about how I was the final key to their mutation. Then I realized. Who ever had done this. Wanted to make not four mutated demon mutants. But one enormous tortuous soul. To walk this earth. Terrorizing everyone and destroying everyone in it's path. If the virus would have completed the mutation inside of me. The earth would be experiencing an apocalypse right now. I started to twitch again. My infection became worse. I started to see things. Was I going insane? Was I mad? I started to see my brothers. Not as demons, or mutated minions. But as my brothers. When we were kids. Mikey and Leo playing with action figures and raph feeding his new pet turtle he found in the sewers. I started to twitch even more. I yelled a demonic scream. Was I transforming into one of them? No! There was only one solution and I knew it. I had to find the substance that cured me the first time. This virus would keep coming back in stronger numbers if I didn't find a cure soon. I crawled to the fridge. Drank some of liquid from a vile. And before I could pass out. I felt like myself again. It seems like this would be a daily thing. Once every twenty four hours. The virus would attack my nervous system. Even stronger than before. And if I didn't stop it. I would up like my brothers. And we would all form into one, huge destructive entity. I couldn't let that happen.

I walked out of my lab to grab something to eat. I saw April up and walking around. I kissed her on the cheek and said, "morning, sweet heart." She hugged me. I blushed. I was so glad to have her. Especially with everything else that was going on. I was glad to have some time to relax. We sat down on the couch eating breakfast. We talking about the dreams we had last night. She had a dream about what it would be like to be trained as a ninja. I said, "well, I'm no master. But I could teach you." He eyes lit up. She squealed, " yes! Please!" So we walked over to the dojo and I taught her the basics of the Bo staff. She was a quick learner. I smiled at her because she might be even better than me one day. We had to be training for hours. It was probably sunset by now. We'd be training all day. We were both tired. She went to go lay in my bed. I told her I'd be there to lay down with her in a minute but first I had to go to my lab.

I walked in my lab and something wasn't right. Somebody had been here. Not too long ago. And they had stolen all of my viles! If I didn't get them back in the next twenty four hours. I would mutate! I ran out and into my room. I walked in and it was dark in there. I said, "April?" I turned around towards the door and somebody knocked me out. Luckily, it wasn't a very good blow. Whoever it was kidnapped April. They were also the ones who had my viles. Maybe these bursts of energy and anger could be a good thing because even though I felt woozy. I got right up. And ran after then. Anger fueling my energy. I ran after her in the subway. When I saw the person who kidnapped April. I threw my staff at the person. The person fell. April did too but she escaped. She ran behind a subway train. It was dark so I couldn't see the persons face but she had girlish features. She also had a girl's voice. She said, " you! Your are the final piece to the puzzle! Your really stubborn, aren't you, donatello?" "It's the silver spirit" I yelled. Then I yelled. "How do you know my name?!" She said, " I've been watching you. You and your brothers." I gasped. Was she the one who turned them? Before I could think another word. She stepped into the light she said. "My name is karai and I transformed your brothers into the hideous freaks they are. You were suppose to join them. But maybe your not as stupid as you look."

This just angered me more. I couldn't control it. I ran over there. Started to choke her and got only an inch away from her face and said. "Change them back! Now!" She laughed. She tried her best to talk as I choked her. I loosened my grip so she could get some words out of her pathetic mouth. She said, " there is no cure. Stupid mutant! And once you mutate. The destruction will occur upon New York. And eventually the world!" She laughed again. I tightened my grip on her even harder. Something was possessing me. I could feel it coursing through my body. I had to let her go. Because if I didn't. Whatever it was. Would eventually take over. I let her go. And when I did. She kicked me to the wall. I was wounded. And before I could get back up. She captured April again and took off with all of my viles. The only cure to my virus. And my sanity.
