3:45 AM
"Hey Donnie." Leo said as he walked into Donnie's lab.
"What do you want? Im
busy
here." The softshell said pointing to his work.
"I need to tell you something."
"Cant this wait until morning?"
"I wont be here in the morning."
Donnies eyes widened slightly at his twins response. "What? Are you ganna run awa-"
"Im ganna kill myself tonight." Leo laughed as Donnie absorbed what his brother just said. "W-What?" Donnie said in concern.
"Im ganna do it with a whole bottle of prozone or a shiny kitchen knife."
The purple turtles breath hitched, "L-Leo, Th-is isnt fu-" "And when im dead you can have my Jupiter Jim comics, and you can read them all night long while sitting on your bedroom floor." The slider interrupted, a smile spreading across his face, but not quite reaching his eyes.
Donnie was on the verge of having a panic attack at this point. He turned his chair around and all that was left of nardo was a blue blink. He portaled away.
Donnie sat there in shock for a minute, trying to process what was happening. Than, He got up and checked Leos location on his tech armlet thing, and ran for him, as fast as he possibly could.
He didnt care that his footsteps echoed across the lair and probaly woke up Mikey and Raph, maybe dad too.
He needed to make sure his twin was ok.
He felt like there was another pair of footsteps behind him, and a voice of some sort.
He didnt care. he needed to find Leo.
So, he kept on running, before a pair of hands grabbed him, stopping him from saving Leo.
The softshell shock the hands off of him, turned around, and hissed before he realized it was Raph.
The sight of his older brothers face snapped him back into reality.
"Donnie. What is happening?! Why are you running???"
All donnie did was look into Raphs eyes, as his face scrunched up, and he started sobbing. "Wha- Donnie! Tell me whats wrong!! What happened?!?" Raph grabbed Donnies arm, before Don slapped away his hand yelling
"D-DONT TOUCH ME!! GET AWAY, *sniff* YOUR- Y- YoU- *hic*" Raph retracted his arm away from Purple, accidentally giving him the chance to run. Which he did. Right to Leos room.
He practically kicked open the door as he looked in.
Leo was unconscious on his bed, next to him was a whole bottle of prozac, empty, with a note on the foot of the bed.
Donnie fell backwards on the floor, breathing getting faster every second, trying to process what he just saw, before he ran into Leos room, and grabbed The Sliders body. It was cold. To cold.
Donnie wrapped his arms around Leo, in a sort of one sided hug, sobbing into his
dead
twins shoulder.
"L-*hic*
Leo- W-wake up- *sniff* please-*hic*L-Leo, i NEED YOU PLEASE- *hic* WAKE UP- *hic* YOU CANT- YOU CANT LEAVE ME AGAIN- *hic* LE-*sniff* -LEAVE US
AGAIN-" he held Leos body somehow closer to him, "
DONT DO THIS TO US AGAIN- PLEASE- *hic*PLEASE LEO-
"
"Donnie?"
Donnies eyes widened as he heard Mikeys voice, His little brother-
"W-Whats- happening?"
Donnie let go of Leo a bit as he looked back towards Mikey, The box turtles face smeared in fear, with Raph and Splinter standing behind him, equally terrified.
So many emotions were rushing through Donnies head, all of this was
to much
.
"Donnie? Can yo-" Mikey began before Donnie passed out on the bed, still holding Leo.
