This AU takes place in the events of the episode, Heart Of Evil, in Season 5 of the show. I recommend watching the episodes, Mutant Gangland, in Season 4 and, Heart Of Evil, in Season 5 before reading this. It'll help you better understand the events in this AU.
Leo wishes he could forget that night.
He wishes he could forget Donnie's expression.
Forget the blood.
Forget the words:
"This is the end."
But some memories don't fade.
And some secrets don't stay buried.
As Donnie drifts further away and Leo begins to lose sleep, lose hope, and maybe even lose himself, the cracks in their family start to show. Raph knows something is wrong. Mikey knows everyone's hurting. And Leo knows one terrible truth:
Some things can't be undone.
And not all nightmares end when you wake up.
This Is The End
But the nightmare has only just begun.
(I'm not entirely sure how to explain this AU because it's kinda a lot. All I can really do to explain it is that it mostly revolves around Leo and Donnie. But you can decide what kind of an AU it is to you. Anyways, I've worked really hard on this and will be consistently updating it. The parts will be short but they'll definitely hit hard. I hope you enjoy it and please tell me your thoughts in the comments. I'd love to hear what you think about it :3)
