Captured

Chapter 17

Raph's POV

I was really nervous today. Tomorrow was the day that we were going to save Leo. I couldn't express my feelings either because sensei knows enough already.

I was sitting by the TV with my brothers. Sensei was meditating so we decided to talk about the plan a bit more. We made a small circle and made sure that we whispered.

"What happens if sensei catches us while we're sneaking out?" Mikey asked curiously.

That was a good question that never really crossed my mind.

"I guess if that happens well just have to try again either the same night or another one," Donnie said.

"No we can't wait another night," I said. "We can't do that to Leo."

"Okay so if that doesn't work out, we'll try again at 11:00 at night," Donnie said.

"That sounds good," Mikey said. "But if we got caught again, when will we try again?"

"1:00am, and that'll be out last try for tomorrow," Donnie explained.

While we were discussing this, I realized something. Tomorrow might be our last day tomorrow.

"How about we do something fun today," I said just incase tomorrow was in fact our last day.

"Like what?" Mikey asked.

"How about we go to the surface." We haven't been there for over a month," I said.

"Okay," Donnie said.

"I'll tell sensei."

I walked into the dojo. Sensei was meditating so I sat beside him. We were silent for a minute. Finally he said something.

"What is it Raphael?"

"We're going to the surface," I told him.

"You may not!" Sensei said in a strict voice.

"Why not?"

"It is still bright out, an I know what you're doing," he said.

I knew he thought we were going to help Leo. I pretended that I didn't know what he was talking about, and that we didn't have a plan.

"What are we doing," I asked.

"Do not pretend that you don't know what you're talking about, I know you have a plan."

"I don't have a plan!"

"You may not go to the surface," sensei said and went back to meditating.

I knew he wasn't going to change his mind. Once it's set, it's hard to change.

I left the dojo and told the guys.

"He's too paranoid," Donnie said.

He was right. Does he really think we'd try to save him while it's the afternoon?

Instead of going to the surface, we watched movies instead. At least sensei couldn't stop is from doing that.

Leo's POV

I woke up to the sound of someone shaking the bars on the cell. It was a very loud and annoying sound.

I went to sit up, but was stopped by unbearable pains in my back from yesterday.

Instead, I rolled over. It was Fishface.

"What?" I asked noticing that my mouth was dry again.

"I just thought it was time to get up," he said and left.

What a jerk. Couldn't he just leave me be?

I tried to get up again. It was very painful, but I managed to do it somehow.

I looked down at the floor. Either my arms or my back was bleeding while I slept, because on the floor were new blood stains.

I needed water. I was also very tired. I couldn't stand up for very long either. I laid back down and hoped to sleep again.

I laid there in the silence, but just couldn't sleep. I was breathing very heavily. I just couldn't stop thinking about water.

Just past noon I saw Tiger Claw coming back to my cell. With the keys he opened it.

"Get up!" Tiger Claw demanded.

I tried, but honestly couldn't. I didn't have the strength to. Even though I could this morning, I just couldn't do it.

"What are you waiting for?"

"I can't," I managed to say

He grabbed my arm and pulled me up. When he did that I hurt. I had fresh cuts on that arm already.

He put handcuffs on me. While he was directing me to Shredder, I started to see stars and blackness. I passed out before I even made it to Shredder.

Once I woke up I was back in my cell. I didn't feel anymore pain then I normally did, so I guess Shredder didn't do anything to me today.

I turned my head towards the bars. Standing there was Tiger Claw, Karai and Shredder. What was Shredder doing here?

"You have grown weak," Shredder said. "Tell us where you live and we'll put you on the streets and see of you can survive."

While Shredder was talking, I almost fell asleep. I didn't say anything.

"I guess we won't give you this water then," Shredder said holding a huge glass of water. They all walked of besides Karai.

"I'm supposed to find a way to make you cave in," Karai said. "Is there anyway that you tell is where your lair is?"

"No," I said very weakly.

"I'll give you anything, food, water, anything."

"No thanks."

"Bye then," she said and walked away.

At this point I didn't know how much longer I could live. I am losing blood almost every day, I've been feed three times since I've been here, and I'm overly dehydrated. I don't know what I'm going to do. I should've escaped when I had the chance.
