Summary
It’d been maybe four days since he’d first woken up, panting and confused, on the floor of a bathroom; one of his eyes weeping red liquid into his palm. A fragile, bleating thing, lost in some vast concrete hell. He’d tried to stay still and quiet like a Good Boy, he really had, but the Guards found him anyway- like sharks scenting the blood, they’d swarmed him, staring at him in shock horror awe.
He was very, very far from the Technodrome.

Summary
Six hours, nine minutes, and forty-two seconds before they find him on the bathroom floor, Donnie says to his eldest brother, go to sleep, dumbass. Raph says in return, I just finished brushing my teeth. It’s the last conversation Donnie ever got to have with him. The last words he and Raph ever got to share. He wished he would’ve known…if he had, he would’ve used them better. He would’ve said good night. Sleep well. I love you.
At the very least, he would’ve said goodbye.

Summary
If you had told Leo a month ago literally any of this was going to happen, he wouldn’t have believed you. More than that, really- if you had tried to tell him anything about the Invasion before it actually went down, the slider would’ve laughed in your face. If you had told Leo- that cocky, young, deathly irresponsible Leo- that his brothers would die and it would be all his fault, that Leo would’ve just laughed it off with a terrible joke and a lazy grin.
But things are a lot less funny when the government has your family at gunpoint.

Summary
The snapping turtle looked down and found the Key clenched in his fist, held tight enough for the edges to bite into skin. So… So now what? He supposed all that was left to do was fetch Master, free the others, and take over the world. Then Pet would never have to think for himself ever again. He wasn’t too sure about all the parts in between, but that wasn’t for him to figure out. This was an incredible and foolproof plan. Which was good, since everyone always told Pet he was terrible and a fool.
