Did you forget you could teleport?

Summary:

Well, this was not good at all. Sure, fighting Foot soldiers or Purple dragons or random thugs on patrols was a normal occurrence, but getting surrounded by fifteen thugs while alone was not terribly good. Leo didn't get to do anything but look up to the sky accusingly before grabbing his swords and readying himself.

Adding tags as we go.

Chapter 1: Did you forget you could teleport?

Chapter Text

Well, this was not good at all. Sure, fighting Foot soldiers or Purple dragons or random thugs on patrols was a normal occurrence, but getting surrounded by fifteen thugs while alone was not terribly good. Leo didn't get to do anything but look up to the sky accusingly before grabbing his swords and readying himself. Unfortunately, there was no time to call or text for backup. That was just absolutely swell. Now the question was, would Raph kill him quickly or slowly for getting into trouble while alone? Yeah no, he had a bet going on with Donnie–

Oh shell, was that a suspicious dart flying past him? Yes, yes it was. Well shit. Time to cut the– LET ME FINISH! Sheesh, can't a turtle lament his fate in peace anymore?

Twisting around to the left avoid both the flying darts and shurikens the blue-banded turtle brought up one of his swords while changing the grip backwards on the other. Time to get serious. Darting forward he leaped up springing from the first thug to swipe at two others while landing. Crouching low he ignored a dart hitting the first guy behind him before kicking the legs out of one other guy. Continuing to twirl around his enemies he failed to notice one of the bigger thugs nearing him while he was fairly close to the edge of the building. Did he mention they were fighting on a roof?

Being focused on the two right in front of him he didn’t see the kick aimed at him until he went tumbling over the edge. With wide eyes he braced for impact only to land eight feet into a fire escape balcony getting the wind knocked out of him. Rolling to his side he grasps the one sword he has left. The other must have fallen completely. Trying to take deep breaths he reached for his phone only to be met with air. Hugging his ribs, he tried to look around for his phone only to come up with nothing. Not even his another sword. Resting his head down he groaned lowly while listening what the thugs were doing. Were they going to appear looking for him or did they think he went flying straight at the ground?

“Boss! It’s still alive on the first balcony!”

He groaned a bit louder. Yeah, they apparently weren’t that dumb. Bracing himself against the railing he stood up slowly. From this position he could see his phone on the ground beside his other sword. Man, he would own one for his twin to fix that mess. Double shit. And Raph was so going to strangle him. Getting his phone destroyed. And losing his sword in the middle of a fight. He held his head gingerly. Wait couldn’t he just teleport the sword to him? Or did he teleport to the sword? Wha–

He snapped his head up hearing the loud clang of metal against metal.

“Well, well, well. Did the tiny freak get hurt?” The big man laughed obnoxiously while tapping a metal rod against the railing making Leo wince with each clang.

The turtle backed away until he hit the corner of the balcony farthest away from the approaching thug. His vision was warbling, and he started to sweat. Yeah, Raph was so going to kill him. The man laughed before swinging fast with the rod. Leo raised his remaining sword feeling it fly out of his hand as the rod connected. He opened his eyes not realizing when he had closed them. The big man was crudely grinning and leaning in.

“You know, there is an individual who will pay a lot to have a freak like you delivered to him. Aren’t you a lucky one?”

Leo’s eyes widened before he tried to scamper away only to be caught by the edge of his shell.

“Yes. You’re going to make me wealthy,” was hummed into his ear before the entire world went black.
