Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - Please Speak Mikey

Chapter 8

"Mikey"

What whose calling me?

What is this feeling?

I feel strange, like something is pulling me?

Why is my body starting to hurt?

Ouch what was that!?

Something is stretching me, like tugging a bunch of strings.

My breathing! It hurts!

"Mikey"

That voice who is that?

It sounds familiar, someone very close to me, but who?

"Come on Mikey please"

This voice is calming me down. But what does that mean come on?

"Open your eyes for me"

What?

I don't get it?

Argh! Why is it painful?

Why am I like this!

Donnie...DONNIE!

My brother...h-he is speaking to me!

"Please little brother"

I-I have to wake up!

Donnie! Help me!

Breathe in, breathe out. I can do this!

Just open them!

Large blue eyes opened to a world of blurriness and confusion. Deformed shapes of green and purple with orange and yellow, constantly moving making his head spin resulting in dizziness. He blinked rapidly hoping it would create the shape into one, the haziness vanished revealing his purple-headed brother Donnie and his first human friend April.

"Mikey" he said softly, smiling his gap tooth.

"Thank god you're awake!" said April quietly, yet happily announced.

Mikey continued staring before viewing the room straightaway noticing he was in his brother's lab. His main question left him wondering how long had he been inside this place, and why was he having trouble remembering the reason why?

He suddenly winced finally registering the fragility and tenuous state that had been conflicted on his frame. Mikey winced and moaned as his figure starting hitching when he slightly moved from his prolong position, when a smooth cool hand gently caressed his head. Not realizing his eyes were closed, Mikey looked into the red-brown wet pupils of purple-clad sibling.

"It's alright Mikey. Everything is going to be ok." Donnie feared that Mikey would retaliate, although Mikey was actually less prone to stubbornness than his elder brothers when it came to his injuries. In fact he was the easiest person to deal with. Aside from his whacky 'I'm gunna die' jokes, you simply patch him up, give him some TLC and the youngest would fall asleep into la la land.

However this was a whole different scenario now and the purple brother believe that Mikey would not want the fuss nor attention from his siblings, believing he was invulnerable and doesn't need to be reminded that he was a burden. His heart squeezed noticing the uncertainty and how his figure tense under his hand. Just for a moment he was sure that there was a flicker of fear towards him. The breath he held was released, as Mikey softened his gaze and relaxed letting his body rest for another sleep. But what haunted the genius was the sparkly baby blue orbs were now a darker shade filled with emptiness and were expressionless. Like a protective shield had covered the emotions leaving him looking like a hollow shell.
