Ava sits on the floor of Shredder's throne room, chained to the wall. Her thoughts are tangled like a jungle. Why didn't she sense them? The answer was obvious though.  Her attention was completely on Mikey. Leo had warned them, telling them to stay alert. Ava places her head in her hands. The only reason she is still alive is because she is bait. She knows they will come for her. Mikey would make sure of it. And all this came from one action. Maybe if she never followed them, she would never be in this position. But then again, because of this, she had found amazing friends and love.

The door slams open. The Shredder marches in, his walk proud.The hairs on the back of her neck stand stiff. Shredder glares at her with a fiery anger. Ave casts her eyes to the ground, wondering what would happen to her now.

"You ungrateful little traitor.'' Shredder barks, unsheathing his claws with a deadly shwing.

Her heart drops to the floor. Is there any way she could escape this?

"Forgive me, Master." Ava whispers fearfully, her head nearly touching the ground.

With one motion, Shredder slashes at her face. He turns and sits on his throne.

"We will wait for your friends to come save you."  Shredder says ominously.

Ava lifts her trembling hand to her face, to see how bad the damage was. Three cuts lie diagonally on her right cheek. Red stains the glass floor. A tear falls silently down her cheek, mixing with the blood. All hope is erased from her mind. For the first time in her life, she actually believes she will die.

So this ends a bit on a depressing note, but this is one of the final chapters. Hope you all  enjoyed it!
