Chapter 5- Determined Miracle


Who are these girls?

I cant be heard anyways...
help..


Daybreak

Donnie sighed in frustration. "Why do i even bother!? i need to accept it that ill never find out who i am!"
Esme frowned at the mutant, she knew he could do it, something inside her knew he would succeed. Somehow, someway. "Focus, you can do this."
Donnie stared at her for a moment before sitting back down with the girls. Katomi and Kanami eyed the mutant. Katomi got up and hugged Donnie's neck, innocent as a child would be. "You can do it Mountain Protector!" 
Donnie smiled at the small girls warmth, he laid his hand over her forearm. "Thank you Katomi..."
Esme smiled at the sight wishing this moment could last forever, sadly deep down she knew it'd end, once he found his place in this world, he'd leave just like the others who abandoned them, leaving them for death. Her mind wondered for a bit till she heard Kanami calling her name. "Esme, are you alright?"
Esme nodded, she focused her eyes on the brown eyed mutant boy. "Okay, now close your eyes and just let your mind go, go into a place you feel most comfortable in."
Donnie closed his eyes, as darkness engulfed him, he let his mind wonder, a image of some kind of lab appeared in front of him, four other creatures, and then some kind of figure, human? maybe.
"What do you see Protector?" Esme asked, gazing at the half sun lit boy.
"A lab." He said, "The smell of chemicals, the sounds of a computer buzzing," he went on trying to focus. 
"What else?" She asked, softly.
"Figures, i cant make them out but i know their important." He opened his eyes and frowned at the small fire. 
"Maybe, we should look for those guys again, see if they have anything to do with your past life." Esme suggested.
"Yay! Field trip!" Katomi chirped but was silenced by her older sister with a stern glare. Donnie shook his head and got to his feet.
"Watch everyone, i need some air." He said, putting his mask on and grabbing his axe. Esme stood, watching him, for a moment she wished he'd stay, though she knew he wouldnt, he never did, he always needed to be alone, never letting anyone close. 
"Be back soon, protector." She whispered.
Donnie nodded, "I will..."

And then he was gone, just like that.


Evening

Raph sighed in frustration, "How many hours have we been out?" He adjusted his tired baby brother on his back, making sure he wouldnt slip, along with holding his older brothers hand, leading him the way. 
Leo sniffed the air and felt the cool breeze, "Well it seems we've been out for about nine hours?" he guessed.
"How do you even know that?" Mikey asked, tiredly.
"I dont, im just guessing." Leo said.
Raph growled, growing more frustrated with the two, he would of done a lot better alone, "Why dont we head back..."
Leo stopped suddenly, making Raph halt. "What?" The red masked turtle growled.
"Did you just say head back? as in retreat? Why Raphael im shocked."
Raph rolled his eyes, he knew all his bickering with his brothers in the past would bite him in the ass one day, some way. "Yeah, yeah, im just saying this because Mikey here has grown to tired and your blind. Theres no way we can continue like this Leo, i need to find him on my own."
Leo's facial expression turned from easy and playful to serious and deadly. "No." he said.
"Leo, i can do this----"
"And so can we Raph!" he yelled, his voice a little shaky. "We are not broken, so dont put us on the shelf just yet, we can do this." 
Raph looked at his older brother, his eyes maybe covered but how he composed himself, held his own, and his voice, detemination was written all over, though that made Raph feelings of uneasy grow. When Raph was about to put his foot down Leo hung his head down. "Please Raph, dont do this, i cant loose you too." His voice sounded unsettling. Raph frowned, he looked over his shoulder at his tired little brother, his one arm around the neck of his brother. "I dont want to loose you too, please Raphie....let us stay...."
The sound of his brothers voice made him tense, and scared, though he couldnt deny them, not when they're so insistant and determined. Raph sighed. "You think you can carry Mikey Leo?"
Leo's head shot up, with a smile pasted on. "Of course!" 
Raph rolled his eyes but smiled, just a small one, He switched Mikey over onto Leo's back and began to lead the way,

having his brothers close.

Night

April huffed, blowing a loose strand of hair out of her face. "Man, i wish woods came with lights."
Casey chuckled. "Yeah well we have flash lights."
"Had flashlights, until someone threw one in the river." April grumbled, as she climbed the steep hill. "And the other into a tree breaking it..."
Casey made a sound, offended obviously, "I did no such thing red, that rat made me!"
April rolled her eyes, "Yeah sure it did." Sounding far from convinced, once up at the leveled ground she collapsed, her legs ached from walking most of the day, how could turtles do this daily? She stood reluctantly, with Casey's help. "You okay red?" 
"Yeah, just reliving the good ol' track days." She breathed and grabbed her bag, "Maybe theres a hidden flash light somewhere, i mean there has to be..."
Casey watched her for a bit before going to a nearby fallen tree, "I say we should just camp out here till morning."
April eyed him, he was nuts to think she'd stay out here unprotected. He chuckled. "Relax sweetheart, i got your back."
April was about to retort when she suddenly heard a low growl beneath Casey followed by some other noises, like roots coming out of the ground, Casey was at her side in no time when the log moved, it wasnt the log, but the ground itself moving. "C-Casey....is the ground supposed to move like that?" April asked, breathlessly.
Casey shook his head rapidly as they watched the ground morph into some creature, made out of soil, roots, grass, dirt, it was a big figure with a deformed face, and it was glowing bright blue in middle of it.
"Well at least we have light now..." Casey whispered, They both tensed when the creature looked twoards them. April fell to her butt when the creature let out a loud roar, She eyed the creature rapidly, body frozen, its hand was coming for her, Casey recovered, and grabbed one of his hockey sticks from his bag on his back and went to slice it, though only to be thrown about, getting knocked out. "Casey!" She cried out forcing her body to move, racing towards his unconsiouss body few feet away, though she never got to him, She was grabbed around the torso by the creature, she squirmed and screamed as loud as she could, panicked by what might happen next. Her eyes grew wide as it drew her closer and closer to its mouth, it was going to eat her, just like that, she was going to die and Donnie would never know, she would never be able to hold her promise. she closed her eyes and wished hard for a miracle, while regretting leaving her deadly weapon in her bag.

Donnie!!

Just in that moment something happened, an axe sliced the creatures arm, letting her go, falling like in mid air till something, no someone caught her. Her heart was hammering so fast, she couldnt breath. She looked up at her rescuer. She felt a familiar touch to this person, Casey? no, someone else. She looked at the masked guy, his brown eyes were exposed.

Could it be? "Donnie?" She let out with a weak, shaky voice. 

Before it all went black.
