Alexa POV
It had all happened so fast. Too fast. The screams that followed after my screams were too much. They were so loud, deafening almost. Leo's were the worst. It broke me inside to see him scream my name. I still can't get his repeating words out of my head; hurt me instead... hurt me instead... hurt me instead. They were repeating through my head like a broken record.
Then there was my leg. It was definitely broken. Rahzar had snapped it like a twig. He didn't show any hesitation or any mercy, just went right ahead and did it. It felt like such a shock right at the moment, but then all the feeling rushed to my head, and I let out a blood curdling scream. Rahzar had dropped my on the ground, which I didn't care. I sat there on that rooftop, clutching my knee. That's where it had hurt the most. I could still hear the screams that were coming from the guys. I guess I had blocked them out for the longest time now, which was honestly only a couple seconds.
"Alexa... look at me... please... we're going to be safe... you're going to be safe... everything will be fine," Leo choked out. His voice sounded frail. He must've been crying. I refused to make eye contact. I slightly shook my head. Why do it when all your going to see is them telling lies? Nothing will be fine. I wanted to slap him, call him out. But I know that would solve nothing. Why was I being like this? He's only trying to help ease the pain I was feeling inside and out.
The seconds felt like hours. Tears were welled up in my eyes, but I refused to let them fall. I didn't want anyone seeing me weak. I tried bending my leg, but all I could do was whimper, even at the slightest movement. I felt thin arms wrap around me and wrench me from my spot on the ground. I opened my mouth to let out a shriek, but nothing came out. Rahzar picked me up bridal style. My face had a fear-striken look on it. I tried pushing him away, but he had a firm hold on me. Besides, I didn't want him to drop me. That would cause even more pain to my leg, plus it also might hurt my tailbone or something along those lines. I looked around my shoulder to see the turtles struggling to get loose. I extended my arm in the air, it pointing towards them. Leo saw me and held out his arm to me.
"Don't worry, I will get you back!" he yelled. I turned my head to see where Rahzar was leading me, but all I could see was darkness and the edge of the rooftop. I whiped my attention back to the guys. The Footbots holding them back injected something into their necks. I yelped as I saw them slump to the ground. "No!"
But before I knew it, Rahzar had jumped off of the roof, and we were airborne for a second, before landing swiftly on another rooftop. I cried out in pain as the impact of hitting the ground made me leg swing up and down. I bit my lip, holding back more and more whimpers. God, I just wanted to pass out, so I wouldn't have to deal with this pain. Someone granted my wish because then I felt something whack me upside the head, and I slumped against Rahzar's bony chest.
*******
The first thing I saw when I woke up was a flame. A flame on a torch. In fact, the perimeter of the room had torches on all sides. I soon noticed that if there wasn't any fire, the room would've been pitch black. The roof was made entirely of glass windows. The ceiling was dark, so I concluded that it was nighttime. Was it still the night I got captured? Or have I been out for days?
I groaned as pain shot up my body. I let out a yelp as I clutched my knee. The pain reminded me of what happened. Tears welled up in my eyes as I replayed the scene over and over again. First, Rahzar had broke my leg, then they inject the turtles to make them unconscious. How lifeless their bodies looked. I pulled my other knee up to my chest and laid my head down on it. I let a tear drop out of my eye and roll down my thigh before a low chuckle alarmed me. My head shot up in the direction I heard it come from. My eyes saw a stair case that led to a platform with the throne on it. Sitting in the throne, was the Shredder, himself. I hadn't noticed him sitting there before because he wasn't even there to begin with. I saw the throne when I first woke up, but no one was sitting in it. I scooted myself back a little as the hairs on the back of my neck stood on end.
"Hello, Alexa," his voice was low and demonic sounding. His mask covered his entire face. Only his eyes were visible and it looked like one of them was fake. I could see why he was called the Shredder, he was like a walking cheese grate.
I didn't say anything back, fear got the best of me. All I could do was stare at him. Every muscle in my body was tense. I was rigid with fear. Finally, I started feeling something other than fear; anger. "Why did you have my leg broken, and why can't you or anyone else fix it?"
My eyes widened at what I had just did. Whatever I say could get me killed. I had to be more careful in the future.
"Pestering one, aren't you?" his tone hadn't changed from the first thing he'd said to me. My lips turned down in a frown as I squeezed my eyes shut.
I rubbed my temple. "What are you going to do with me?"
"I'm going to use you as bait," his voice sounded like he was smiling at the moment. "The turtles will try to rescue you, but they won't be able to, because I will have already ended their pathetic lives."
I scooted forward abruptly. "No, don't! Don't involve them in this, just hurt me... not them," I pleaded.
"I have to do this, this is how I will get my revenge," he stated.
This made me think in silence for a couple moments. "Just for revenge? Violence is never the answer. I know that phrase is used a lot, but it's the tru-" I started.
He slammed his fist down on the arm of his over-sized throne. "Silence!"
I winced. I decided to shut up and not stir up any more trouble. I took a peek up at Shredder again. His head was bowed and his hands were clenched into fists while they were resting on the arm rests. The silence lingered in the air, making it harder and harder for my heart to stop pounding in my chest as hard as it was. I took a deep breath, "I just don't get why you have to be like-" a hard hand shoved my body in a forward motion. My leg seared with pain. I gritted my teeth to keep from sobbing hysterically. I glanced back and saw a Footbot standing over me, with it's arms by it's sides. I frowned and turned my attention back to Shredder. He was now standing up in front of his throne. His legs began moving as he descended to the stairs. His blade slid out from nowhere, it seemed like, and he pointed it right at my head. I backed away as best as I could, but the Footbot was preventing me from going anywhere. I gulped as he moved the blade forward. There were two blades so that he could keep his enemies trapped where he wanted them. Vile, vile man. He had one of the blades so close to my eye, I couldn't quite focus on it. I moved my head back a little. He then lowered it so it was pointing to the ground. I let out a sigh of relief.
"Don't speak unless spoken too, child," his voice was grim. He concealed his blade as he turned away from me. I looked up at him with disgust. It was taking all of my mental strength not to talk back to him. "Take her to the dungeon."
I gave him one last dirty look before the Footbot hauled me out of the room.
