Feeling Blue (Open)

[Leonardo]

(July 17th. Morning.)

Leonardo walked down the street. He was carrying the sword Max had given him wearing his usual blue bandana as usual. As he kept walking he heard a booming sound and suddenly he was covered in a net and flung to the ground. He reached for his sword discovering it was out of reach.

"Who are you?" asked Leonardo.

He gasped as the figure not only took his sword but removed his bandana.

"Hey! Give those back!" said Leonardo.

Leonardo watched at Bradley's words horrified. He felt wrong without the bandana on as he only took it off to shower or when in disguise. But being without it he didn't know if he could. But that sword was a gift from Max. He'd put in all that effort to get it custom made.

"The sword." gasped Leonardo.

He watched as Bradley returned the sword to him and then set fire to his bandana.

"NO!" said Leonardo.

He struggled to try to break free but only watched as his bandana was just a pile of ashes now.

"You monster! You're going to pay for that," said Leonardo.

Suddenly his net was broken by laser fire as he looked up seeing others arrive.

"Thank you." said Leonardo.

He picked up his sword. But with the bandana gone and Bradley's earlier taunts he was wondering if maybe he wasn't ready to fight after all.

XXXX

The figure chuckled.

"It was way too easy to take you by surprise. You're distracted, not on your game. Guess Malachite messed with your mind more then we thought." said the figure.

He steps out of hiding revealing himself to be Bradley Uppercrust III.

"Insuedo and Smith's new net gadget worked like a charm." said Bradley.

He chuckled picking up the sword. He walked forward ripping the bandana off Leonardo, despite its protests.

"Some ninja. You don't deserve either of these." said Bradley.

Bradley chuckled.

"How about I offer you a deal? I'll give you one thing back. But you have to choose what gift you want most. From your father or little Maxie." said Bradley.

Bradley smirked and tossed him the sword just out of reach of Leonardo.

"I never said I'd let you go. As for the bandana...."

He pulled out a lighter setting it on fire as the bandana turned to a pile of ashes that dropped to the ground.

"And who's going to stop me? You can't even get out of that net." said Bradley.

He was taken by surprise as laser fire struck at his feet sending him crashing to the ground. The net gun fell at his feet.

XXXX

Critic's Side:

Goggles, Tarzan, and Elisa arrived to back up Leonardo. Goggles and Elisa fired lasers freeing Leonardo from the net.

"Your welcome. Where's your bandana?" asked Elisa.

She was shocked to hear Bradley had destroyed it.

"I'm sure we can try to make you another one." said Elisa.

XXXX

Leo shook his head.

"No. I've disgraced my family and myself by letting myself get caught so easily. I need to earn that bandana back." said Leo.

XXXX

Tarzan smiled at him.

"You don't need it to be a ninja. You can probably see better without it." said Tarzan, trying to cheer Leo up.

XXXX

Goggles nodded.

"Yeah. I'm sure you still have what it takes." said Goggles.

----------

Ask That Guy's Army:

Bradley groaned as he grabbed the gun and smirked at the new arrivals.

"I toasted that thing. And I'll do a lot more to the loser next." said Bradley.

XXXX

Strife appeared next to him with a smirk.

"Oooh, a battle. This should be fun." said Strife.

XXXX

Cassidy walked out with Zurg on foot. She smirked seeing the group.

"Well, well. Looks like the fight is about to begin. This should be fun." said Cassidy.

XXXX

Zurg chuckled.

"Yes. Shame Mira's not here. But I'll settle for taking out her friends. Yes. She'll come after me sooner or later." said Zurg.

[Donatello]

(OCC: Leo losing his bandana gives me a idea. I was thinking that Max with someone's help could like make a new bandana for him? What do you think? Also feel free to have someone save patton but also feel free to ignore virgil)

Critic's Side Contains: Max Goof, Donatello, Raphael and Patton Sanders

Max was a bit antsy. Leo went for a walk but he was gone for a slightly longer than usual time. He expressed his concerns to elisa who agreed and went with a small group to fetch him, only for them also to be gone for a longer than usual time. He turned to patton who asked what was wrong and he replied "Um, maybe I'm just being paranoid but Leo has been gone for a walk for a small while and he's worrying me. He went out around seven am and said he'd be back by nine. It's ten thirty" He then listened as Donny immediately panicked and rushed out, commenting leo was never late and ran. He then got scared too and replied "Donny! Wait for me!" He left with patton not far behind and raphael also running alongside him.

He then rushed as he saw Leonardo, with no bandana, on the ground alongside Elisa's group. He then saw who was confronting them. None other than Bradley. Max's heart froze as he heard Bradley say that he burned his bandana, and threatened to do worse to Leonardo. He felt absolutely numb as both raphael and Donatello went to console and make a human shield for their brother. Max just felt hopeless, he turned to hear leo call himself a disgrace and that he didn't deserve his bandana especially after getting captured. Wait? Getting captured? Bradley nearly grabbed Leonardo and max wouldn't of been none the wiser.

Max turned to see leo's eyes filled with despair and sadness. Max had made some comments that he liked leo's eyes and sometimes wished leo would take the bandana off, even though he loved how the bandana looked on leo. But now all those comments felt heavy and he wished for the bandana back even more. Especially since leo looked so devastated. He turned to Bradley, moving raphael and Donatello out of the way and felt his old familiar rage come to him. Max was more than willing to be humiliated but no one, NO ONE messed with Leonardo. He snarled at Bradley and shouted "BRAD!" He then grabbed the lazer gun he took from the weapons cabinet and replied sarcastically "What do you say to a good old fashioned rematch? You know, since I beat your sorry butt last time?"

He then smirked, wanting Bradley to attack or fight him "Unless you're too chicken. It would make sense since you picked on leo instead of me" He angrily replied "I'm gonna make you pay for nearly kidnapping leo. And taking something so precious to him. You mess with him, you're messing with me!"

Donny and Raphael both came downstairs when max was talking to patton about leo being late. Donny's heart went frozen and he turned to raphael replying "Um, raph, that's really unsettling. Leo ever since he showed up here had always shown up on time still right?" When raphael confirmed it, Donny grabbed his bo and replied "I'm not taking any chances. I'm gonna go find him" And then he raced, max, raphael and patton telling him to wait. But he couldn't wait. The fear of having his older brother taking him was still fresh on his mind and he was not going to take any risks. He then noticed his worst fear come to life as some young man and a bunch of atg members were surrounding him and a group of people. He noticed leo's words and helped his brother up. He replied "Leo! You're okay!" He then noticed leo's bandana gone and heard from leo himself that he didn't deserve "Leo, I don't know what happened but you don't tell yourself that. You're just as ninja as the rest of us" He then turned to see max challenge Bradley and he turned to leo and replied "We need to get back safely. We'll get you a new bandana don't worry about it"

He then got his bo staff out and replied "I'll take down the villians, you go on without me bro" He then turned to see strife and waited to see if he or anyone else would attack him.

Raphael was a bit nervous when max said leo did not return from his walk. He knew the two were a item but unlike with rum tum tugger, raphael didn't feel a distrust with max. Raphael had gotten used and enjoyed rum tum after a while but max was a instant like for him. He listened as Donny expressed concern and he agreed replying "Yeah. It's really not like leo to be late. He's still a perfectionist through and through" He then turned as Donny rushed out and follow him replying "Yo! Donny! Wait up for the rest of us!" He then gasped a bit as he noticed his brother explaining to elisa he nearly got captured. That pissed him off immensely and he grabbed his sais and replied as max made a comment to Bradley "Save some for me too max! I got a score to settle with these punks!"

He then turned to leo and replied "Bro, don't say those things. These guys surprised you. They're a bunch of sneaky punks" He then turned to wait for anyone to attack and replied "You ain't touching my brother. Not without going through me first"

Patton was a bit distracted with planning for dinners and lunches for the next three weeks when he saw max look anxious. He then replied curiously "Why max, is something the matter?" He then listened to max and replied "Oh I'm sure he's just taking his time. You don't worry about him" He then noticed his brothers also get worried and then Donny rush outside. Patton saw the three leave and replied rushedly "Now hold on kiddos, wait! Wait a minute! This isn't very smart!" He then got nervous as they left and decided to follow. If anything but just to be backup. He grabbed a weapon of his own, just in case, and followed. He then was a bit nervous as it was indeed a ambush and noticed so much going on. But then he noticed the atg members arm themselves and get ready.

"Now now now wait, this isn't right. Violence isn't the answer!" Patton nervously replied. He didn't like the idea of fighting, but he knew it was going to happen. But he was still in denial and felt like stopping it with his words. He turned to see virgil and he replied "Oh virgil! I'm so happy to see you!" He then gasped as hun aimed a gun at his head. He smiled as virgil got in front of him but then gasped as virgil was pushed away. "No! Virgil!" He then gulped as hun proceeded to aim again at his head. Patton gulped and backed away and replied "Now now see here young man you put that down"

Ask Thatguy' Side Contains: Virgil Sanders, Hun, Jack Morrigan and Captain Hook

"Battle? Oooh, I like the sound of that!" Captain Hook replied. He then immediately grabbed his sword out and then demanded annoyed as they all tried to console Leonardo "Would you all stop being so sickingly sweet and fight us already this is so boring!" He then got impatient as they seemed to ignore him. He then decided to charge at elisa snapping "Fine, if you won't start this I'll do it myself!" He then proceeded to charge at her
XXXXXX

Virgil only came mostly out of obligation. He knew that if he didn't lift his weight he'd be questioned of use and maybe imprisoned and didn't want his good luck to run out. He then turned to the heroes and prepared himself only to hear patton's voice. He turned to indeed see patton and virgil's blood ran cold "Patton? Patton is that you?" He then heard patton express joy in seeing him and was about to reply when hun aimed a gun at his head. Virgil got in front of him and replied "Hun! Wait! Don't shoot him he's my friend! Don't do this! This wasn't the plan! Get Leonardo then get out that's what we're supposed to do! Not kill anyone!" He then was shoved away and he gasped as patton had the gun aimed at him "Hun! Don't!"
XXXXXX

Jack was a bit uncomfortable with hun and hook being so impulsive. He wanted to do what he was supposed to do, which was help Bradley take Leonardo. That was the supposed plan the kid had and jack saw no reason not to do it. He wanted to make a name for himself. He decided to ignore hook and hun. He didn't exactly like that hun was willing to kill a ally's friend but jack argued with himself that this was what they needed to do. They were the enemy, that was the bottom line. He decided that now that people were distracted he try to play the odds and ransom a person's life for Leonardo's. If a friend got captured chances were the target would surrender. He grabbed his signature knife and aimed to get goggles, as it was clear hook called dibs on elisa.

Hun was pretty shocked that Bradley managed to get Leonardo so easy, but hun blamed it on the fact that Leonardo was distracted and felt his ego boost at the fact of that. If they could get Leonardo it would be a big success for him, shredder would definitely approve of him once more for it. Hun was about to go to the turtles but then saw patton step in front of them all demanding for them to make peace. Annoyed by this new guy, hun aimed his gun right at his head "Well now looks like we got a problem with Mr. Wuss. Let me make the situation much easier for you pal" He then was surprised as virgil stepped in to stop him. Annoyed some more he grabbed virgil and shoved him away shouting "Stay out of this pipsqueak. You're supposed to be on our side" He then aimed to shoot at patton but then felt someone stop him.

[Leonardo]

(ooc: I was thinking of maybe having him be without it for awhile. maybe it takes awhile to make a new one. almost tempted for the turtles to even do new colors for their loved ones. rum tum, willie, and max. don't think basil would probably wear one since splinter doesn't. like could use colors like yellow, green, black, etc. thoughts?)

Bradley Vs. Max:

Bradley smirked as Max showed up.

"Well well if it isn't little Maxie. Thought you'd be too chicken to come out and play." said Bradley.

He chuckled and frowned as Max called him a chicken.

"I'm no coward. You want a fight you got it." said Bradley.

He smirked running forward only to punched in the face as he fell over. He clutched his face seeing he had a bruise on his right cheek and saw it was Leo.

"Why you...."

Before he could retaliate someone had attacked Leo leaving Bradley alone with Max.

"Guess you pal got a lucky hit. You won't get that chance." said Bradley.

XXXX

Goggles Vs. Jack:

Goggles charged towards Jack.

"You certainly have no honor attacking someone by himself with a group. Figured you're a villain. I don't know what world you're from but I wish I could send you back there." said Goggles.

She fired laster blasts at Jack.

XXXX

Elisa Vs. Hook:

Elisa was grateful for the Blade Blasters Linkara, Linksano and the others had massed developed. A weapon that was a sword or a laser gun depending on what setting you had it. She switched it to sword mode and swung at Hook as their swords clashed.

"I should have known we'd see you sooner or later. Peter Pan and one of the Lost Boys ended up in our army." said Elisa.

XXXX

Taran Vs. Virgil:

Tarzan saw Hun a gun at Patton and during the confusion knocked Hun away from Patton but he also stood between Patton and Virgil.

"Stay back. I don't know if you are brothers or not but I won't let you hurt a friend of mine. Besides I think Iron Liz and Roman would be sad if anything happened to you." said Tarzan.

He wasn't sure if Hun would return or not but he wouldn't leave Patton on his own.

XXXX

Cassidy Vs. Patton:

Cassidy charged holding a sword as she charged at Patton after Hun was knocked away.

"Virgil you take the animal man over there. I'll fight Patton. And don't worry. I'll make sure to knock him out so we can have him safely in Ask That Guy's house." said Cassidy.

XXXX

Leonardo Vs. Hun

Leo grinned seeing his brothers arrive with more reinforcements.

"Donny! Raph!" said Leo.

He paused seeing Max and realized Bradley was an enemy of his. As they began to fight he snapped out of his stupor seeing Bradley come near Max.

"Stay away from my boyfriend!" said Leo.

As he charged he decked Bradley in the face giving him a bruise on the face.

"That one's for Max. And this one's for me!" said Leo.

But before he could strike again someone was thrown into him. He got up realizing it was Hun.

"Hun! What are you doing here?!" said Leo.

He stood up and held the sword Max had given him. His twin swords were at home so he was at a disadvantage but one sword would have to be enough.

"You want a fight Hun. You got it!" said Leo.

Leo charged at Hun.

XXXX

Strife Vs. Raph:

Strife laughed at the chaos going around him.

"Looks like it's all-out war. Battles popping up everywhere. What fun." said Strife.

He paused walking towards the pair of turtles.

"So which one of you thinks you can go up against a god? My name is Strife. The last name you'll ever hear." said Strife.

He laughed again and threw an energy ball at both of them before charging towards the red turtle. He seemed angry and that was a lot more fun.

XXXX

Zurg Vs. Donny:

Zurg smirked following Strife.

"Unless one of you wishes to challenge me." said Zurg.

He fires his laser blaster at the pair before going after the purple bandana turtle seeing Strife go after the other on e.

"Let's see if you're as smart as they say turtle." said Zurg.

[Donatello]

(OCC: Well on the update, Max, Ruber, Willie and Rum Tum will get masks lol and Basil won't. As for Leo having no mask, that's all good, but I hope he gets his blue mask back sometime soon)

Bradley Vs. Max

Max sneered more as Bradley called him chicken only to get angry at Max's insults. Max waited for Bradley to charge only to see Leo defend him. Max smiled then gasped as Hun grabbed Leo. He replied, worried "Leo! Hold on!" Max then was stopped by Bradley who had a bruise on his face. Max cracked his hands, sneering more "Don't speak too soon, Brad" Max then practically pounced on Bradley, aiming to strike and fight.

Goggles Vs. Jack

"Honey, this isn't about honor. It's about survival. It's a war. I'm from a place that actually knows that. You're probably just a pampered little girl who doesn't know what she got into" Jack calmly retorted back. Jack dodged some of Goggles attacks, racing right to Goggles to punch her in the stomach. He had his knife mostly to defend himself from the weapon. He aimed his knife at Goggles' throat, replying firmly "Drop the weapon. Don't do anything that'll cost you something you can't replace"
XXXXX

Hook Vs. Elisa

Hook clashed swords with Elisa, chuckling as she mentioned a lost boy "Well that lost boy will soon be taken as a hostage next. As will any of my enemies" Hook kept fighting with Elisa, replying firmly "Give it up girl, you have no idea what you're up against" Hook tried to aim for low spots to get Elisa down. He hoped this was a easy fight.
XXXXX

Tarzan Vs Virgil

Virgil was started to get a bit overwhelmed by the chaos. He was pleased his opponent was a peaceful-minded individual. Virgil was even more pleased it was Tarzan. Thanks to Roman and Thomas' disney knowledge, he had a idea who this person was. He was someone who fought to protect so if Virgil got on his good side they could avoid a fight. That is if things didn't get more heated. Virgil was aware Patton was completely distracted by Cassidy and Virgil nodded a thank you to Cassidy. He then turned to Tarzan, replying "Listen, Patton and I, it's complicated but the bottom line is he's my friend. I would never hurt him. We didn't mean to hurt anyone. We weren't even planning, or at least I wasn't planning, to hurt Leo. It really wasn't anything personal I promise" Virgil got closer to Tarzan, replying "I can't get out of this right now. I don't want to fight you but I might not have a choice"
XXXXX

Cassidy Vs Patton

"Wait hold on! We don't need to knock out or capture anyone!" Patton begged. He dodged Cassidy's swings with ease but avoided hitting her. He shoved her away, mostly to prevent hurting her and fighting. Patton replied with worry and sadness in his tone "Young lady, please, I don't want to hurt you. I can't go with you though. I have things to do at the critic's army" Patton replied sadly "We don't need to have this be a big brawl!"
XXXXX

Leo Vs. Hun

Hun was irritated Tarzan knocked him away from Patton. Hun snapped at Virgil "Hey, you, get your head in the game" Then he saw Leo out in the open. Despite Leo fighting Bradley, Hun felt like he could finally settle his score. Hun raced, shoving Leo away from Max and Bradley. At Leo's confused statements, Hun snapped "Isn't it obvious? I'm here to take you to our army or take you down to the dirt! Either way, you're being taken down!" He grabbed a gun, aiming to shoot Leo. When Leo declared he was ready to fight, Hun snapped "Prepare to get blasted, turtle!" He then kept trying to shoot at Leo
XXXXX

Strife Vs Raph

Raph was a bit nervous as Leo was fighting Hun but he realized he had his own battle to deal with. Raph could handle a lone battle. He didn't mind. He had some anger and frustrations to work out anyway. Raph sneered at Strife and charged only to get blasted by a energy ball alongside Donny. Donny got separated from him and Raph blamed it all on Strife. Raph grabbed his sais, snapping "You wanna a fight, Strife? You got it!" He charged at Strife, aiming for his body
XXXXX

Donny Vs. Zurg

Donny was overwhelmed by the chaos in his own way. Before he could think of his own plan, he got separated from Leo. Then, as he was about to deal with that, Donny felt energy blast him away. The man responsible for the blast went for his brother. Zurg though seemed to want a fight with him. Willing and determined to get out, Donny decided it was time to just fight. His questions of what was happening just boiled to one answer. A fight was being made. Donny grabbed his bo and sneered "I am beginning to question your intelligence considering you think I'll be a easy fight" Donny charged quickly, doing a quick battle cry as he aimed his staff to hit Zurg's body.
