(Raph❤️)

In the living room, you were sleeping against Raph, who was watching some of the 'Lou Jitsu' movies on the TV screen, while everyone else had gone to do their own thing. 

However, your peaceful sleep was suddenly invaded by a bad dream. 

Your mother was yelling at you again, but this time, cruel words were leaving her mouth, and marks and bruises were being made from her hard grips on your arms. You couldn't cry for help, your voice was already lost. You were trapped with the monster of a 'mother' screaming hurtful words at you, making you cower. 

Raph felt you shift in your sleep. In less than a second, you shot up and started hitting the air. 

"No! Mom, stop! Shut up!" You screamed. 

Raph was up in a flash and gently held you in his arms. He was lucky that your punches didn't hurt him as he tenderly shook you. 

"(Y/N)! Wake up, you're safe! Calm down!"

You opened your eyes suddenly, catching your breath. Your eyes were wide, tears threatening to leave them. 

"R-Raph?" You shakily said. 

He hugged you gently against his plastron as you sobbed. 

"Bad dream?" 

"Mhmm," you nodded your head, tears now leaving your eyes.

"It's okay, (Y/N). I'm still protecting you," Raph soothed.

(Leo💙)

You and Leo were sleeping on his bed, snuggled against one another. The peace was suddenly broken when your dream changed to a nightmare. 

Your mother started blaming you even more for your brother's death, then your ex appeared and began degrading you and calling you pathetic, unloved, unwanted. Then the people who mistreated began joining in and called you worst names. The atmosphere around you was starting to suffocate you, and you felt no cry leaving your mouth in the nightmare. 

Leo felt you squirm in the sleep, bringing him away from his slumber. He was fully awake when you started crying out in your dream. 

"No! Leave me alone! Shut up!" You screamed in pain and tears. 

"(Y/N)! (Y/N)! I'm here! It's me!" Leo gently grabbed hold of your arms. 

You shot up from the bed, hot tears streaming down your face. Your breathing was heavy as your chest moved up and down. You faced Leo, who was staring at you worried and heartbroken to see you like this. 

"Bad nightmare?" 

You nodded your head without giving him a verbal answer and began to cry harder. Leo gently held you close to him and hugged you tighter. 

"Ssh, I got you. I'm here." 

(Donnie💜)

With you asleep on the lab table, Donnie and Brittany were working on one of their inventions. 

A nightmare broke into your mind, and you didn't even know it until it got worse. Your mother was kicking you out, only with more brutal force. She dragged you by the hair and yelled the most hurtful words at you as your father tearfully dropped your bags out through the front door. He was forced to watch his precious daughter get kicked out to the streets and unable to do anything. 

Brittany heard you mumbling in your sleep. By the time she got to you, you were already crying louder and pulling at your hair. 

"No...no, Mom, stop! Don't, please! Let me go! Let me go!" 

"(Y/N)! (Y/N), wake up! Wake up! You're safe!" Brittany gently took hold of your shoulders and shook you awake. 

Donnie heard her and was shocked to find you with wide, tearful eyes and a tear-stained face already formed. 

"It's okay, just breathe. You're safe," Brittany instructed you. 

You looked up at Donnie and ran straight into his arms, crying into his chest. He returned the hug and stroked your (H/L) hair. 

"It's alright, love. It's just a dream," he whispered. 

"It felt so real..." you whimpered. 

"Ssh, ssh. It's okay. I'm here, dove. I'm here," Donnie shushed you softly, with Brittany rubbing your back. 

(Mikey🧡)

Mikey was working on some new ideas with Alli and Sam, as you slept soundly on the couch, snuggling a pillow. Alli was holding (S/N) on her lap as the younger child watched her work on her doodles. 

Your dream changed for the worst as you knelt on the floor with (S/N), dead in your arms as your parents shouted cruel words and threw things at you. No sound came out of your mouth as you cradled (S/N)'s unmoving body closer, her blood staining your shirt. 

"(S-S/N)...(S/N)..." you mumbled in your sleep. 

Alli felt her protective sister sense kick in and looked up to see you mumbling even louder and your eyes darting wildly while closed. 

"N-No! (S/N)! Please, don't go!" You finally screamed in your sleep, which startled Mikey, Sam, and (S/N). "God, no! Please, no! Make it stop, make it stop!" 

"(Y/N)! (Y/N), wake up! It's just a dream!" Alli set (S/N) down before rushing towards you and shaking you gently. "(Y/N), wake up!" 

You shot up from the couch and gasped. Tears streamed down your face frantically searched the room until they landed on (S/N), who worriedly walked towards you. 

"(Y/N)? What happened?" She asked you. 

You picked her up and hugged her tightly. She returned the hug, still concerned. 

"M-mom and dad k-killed you, (S/N/N)," you cried shakily. "You were l-lying there..." 

"Hey, hey. It's okay, babe," Mikey sat next to you and hugged you. "It's just a bad dream. You and (S/N) are safe now." 

"Yeah! We're hidden from our mean parents!" (S/N) said in agreement. 

You beamed a bit, relaxed that it was all just a dream. 

"You've got nothing to worry about, (Y/N). We're here now."
