The Infected

[Lethal Lullaby]

After i read this: http://www.cracked.com/article_15643_5-scientific-reasons-zombie-apocalypse-could-actually-happen_p3.html

I came up with this: Summary- New York City is under quarantine due to a break out of a virus. A virus that is spreading through by something simple like a bite. The citizens of the city are either hiding, preparing to fight this chaos, or dead. What happens to people infected with this Virus is a disease that destroys the chemical in their brain's called Serotonin, which changes them into pretty much a zombie. And here's the worst part. These "Zombies" might be heading to the sewers soon. So the TMNT and their allies have something very interesting to go up against.

And I will get started on this story soon.

The walking dead meets TMNT :twink:

[BubblyShell22]

Hmmm, sounds interesting. Can't wait to see what you have in store for the Turtles in this fic.

[Original TMNT Cartoon Fan]

In which TMNT universe is this set?

[Lethal Lullaby]

Prologue: (oh I'm trying something new for my story. Just to see if it works better for me. And TMNT does not belong to me. Cuz if they did... it's be kinda too random and didsturbing. And this is set in the 2k3 universe and this is a horror story)

Time: 6pm. Location: Surface New York City.

A man wearing a brown leather jacket and a Raiders cap, in let's say his mid 40's, is taking a stroll along a sidewalk when he walks into a small conveinence store. Standing behind the counter is a younger male in his 20's. The young man smiles at the man as he walks in.

Young man: Hello. My name is Dane. May I help you?

Man: *takes of his hat* Hi, Dane. Name's Chad. And yes you may help me. I'm looking for a 90 volt light bulb. It's for my living room.

Dane: Of course. *reaches over and points to the back of the store* just back there, sir.

Chad thanked the young man and headed straight for the back. He looked down the aisle until he found what he was looking for. Chad grabbed the lightbulb. Suddenly he heard something that made him jump. What he heard was the sound of the door breaking in. Chad ran back up to the front. What he saw next was most disturbing. Laying on the ground on the glass was the dead body of a woman. She was 30 and was wearing a blue dress top with a blue pencil skirt. Chad stared at her in utter horror. It almost looked like she was thrown into a human sized meat grinder. Her face was torn off. Literally. The question to Chad's answers soon came to him. Another man was quickly stumbling towards him. His shirt was soaked in blood and his face was torn. He stumbled closer to Chad, who was backing away. Chad let out a scream of agony when he was bitten by the other man.

Dane quickly picked up his shot gun from behind the counter. He fired at least 3 times and the man fell down. Dead. Dane ran up to Chad and looked at his face. Chad's eyes were frozen in fear. As Dane looked down a bit farther he saw that Chad's throat had been chewed out. Dane managed to stop himself from hurling. He picked up his phone and dialed 9-1-1.

End Prologue. (Oh and I am not a Raiders fan. Just to let ya'll know) Ch. 1 coming soon!

[Lethal Lullaby]

Ch. 1 (Alright here you guys go! Again. I don't own TMNT. I do own my O.C. Mystee)

Time: 7:30 pm Location: Sewers of New York City.

Leonardo had just finished meditating and decided to go check the news. He picked the remote off the table and pointed it at the many television sets they had. When they all turned on he placed the remote down. The words, "Breaking News" caught his eyes. He called for his brothers and Master Splinter to come to the living room. Michelangelo came out first.

Mikey: What's with the shouting dude?

Leo: Look!

Michelangelo looked at the screen, as Raphael, Donatello, and Master Splinter all walked in. On the screen was a blonde man in a black dress shirt and a red tie. He had a microphone that said the news station he was on.

News reporter: I am at the grocery store, where what happened to be a brutal crime scene, has occured. We don't know what has actually happened but there are 3 dead people here- hey! Do you work here?

The news reporter was looking past the camera men and pointed at a young man. His shirt had a name tag that read 'Dane' . The camera men turned around and saw Dane. Behind Dane was a women. Both Dane and her looked very sickly and dead. Before the news reporter could say a word the two of them lunged at him. They both bit deep into his flesh. Instead of falling dead like the other 3 victims on the floor the news reporter turned to the camera men.

Master Splinter quickly turned off the T.V. and looked at the four turtles, whom he called his sons. Leo was the first to speak up.

Leo: What was that? Were those two... zombies?

Don: They couldn't be. I mean there can't be just walking dead people. There must be some explanation.

Mikey: I don't know about you guys, but I think I'm gonna be sick.

Before Raphael could add what he was about to say his shell cell went off. He pulled it out and pressed the answer button.

Raph: Yo.

Mystee: Hey, are you guys watching the news?

Raph: We were...

Raphael jumped when Mystee appeared behind him. She was wearing a red shirt with a black lace design and grey skinny jeans with a pair of black flats. She laughed at Raphael when he jumped.

Raph: Sheesh! How'd ya get here?

Mystee: Well I was already gonna come down here to say hello, but i just heard something on the news and wanted to see if you heard.

Mikey: Are you friends with Zombies?

Mystee: Ew. No. Vampires would never hang with those braindead idiots.

Don: *groans* Mikey... *turns to Mystee and smiles* Sorry about that, Mystee. Nice of you to drop in.

Mystee: Thanks. So-

Leo: *cuts her off* Yes. We saw.

Mystee: Crazy right?

The turtles looked at her.

Mystee: Hey. I at least clean up after I hunt someone down. And most of the time I let them live.

Mikey: Ha. We're standing here talking about how horrifying walking dead people are and here's Mystee, who also happens to be dead.

Don: I'm a little curious of how this happened.

Leo: We'll go tomorrow.

Splinter: Are you sure you want to put yourselves into this predicament, Leonardo?

Mystee: Don't worry I'll be with them. If any of those zombies try to lay a finger on them I'll be like 'excuse me? What? Oh heck no!' *mimicking a slash as she swipes her hand through the air and adds the sound effects of the body being torn*

Splinter thought about this. He remembered when his sons brought her home some time ago. She's a strange teen, but she has potential. And from what he heard from his sons she had restrained herself from killing too many people. Not to mention the fact that she loves animals.

Splinter: *sighs* Just be careful.

Leo: *bows* We will sensei.

~*~

Time: 8:15 pm. Location: Surface of NYC.

Michelangelo looked around. He hoped none of those zombies would jump out and attack them.

Mikey: hmm. No grotesque zombies out here. Guess they went home. I think we should-

Mystee: *laughs* I'll hold your hand if you're scared.

Mikey: No, I'm not scared.

Raph: Right. Come on bonehead. You've fought worse before.

Don: Lets go to the conveinence store where the accident happened. Maybe we'll find something.

Leo: Alright then. Raph, Mikey, Mystee. Let's go.

Mystee followed behind Raphael and Michelangelo as they followed Leonardo and Donatello. They ran in the direction of the store, but stopped behind a corner. Mystee said she'll check it out, but before she did Raphael told her he'll go with her. The two of them walked into the store. To their dismay the bodies had been cleaned up.

Raph: Guess I better tell-

Mystee: Wait. I smell something.

She grabbed Raphael's wrist and pulled him in the direction she was walking. She stopped with him before a closet.

Raph: umm. What are we doing standing in front of this?

Mystee shushed him and slowly opened the door, which was suddenly pushed open by someone behind it. The door slammed into Mystee and she fell to the floor. Raphael quickly took out his sais and looked at the man practically covered in blood and guts. His eyes lowered to the ground where another dead man was laying, but quickly went back to the other man. He saw the man coming towards him and threw one his sais at his head. He quickly pulled Mystee up to her feet.

Raph: Let's get Donnie, alright?

Mystee: ummm. Raph?

Mystee pointed past him and when Raphael turned around he saw a group of dead looking people coming towards them.

End of Ch. 1 Chapter 2 coming soon! ;)

[Lethal Lullaby]

Ch. 2

Time: 8:45pm Location: Conveince store.

Raph: Great. Just great.

Mystee: *smirks* There's only ten of them.

Raph: Alright then. Let's put the beat down on them.

Mystee ran at top speed and cut through three of their necks with her sharp nails and vampire speed. Meanwhile Raphael dodged a hand coming for his face and jabbed his sai in the zombie's skull.

~*~

Time: 9:05pm Location: A corner away from the conveince store.

Leonardo was getting concerned as he was pacing back and forth. How long does it take to check out a little store? He figured at least Mystee would be back already.

Leo: What's taking those two?

Don: Do you think we should check on them?

Leo: I think that would be best. Let's go.

Leonardo, Donatello, and Michelangelo all headed to the store. Of course they did see the blood and guts practically flying across.

Mikey: Sheesh. Looks like a scene from those movies with the crazed man that locks up-

Leo: Raph! What happened?

Raph: We came in here. And the evidence was gone, but Mystee found another zombie and a body in a closet. Then ten more came out and we crushed them.

Mystee: I broke bone's face in my hand!

Leonardo looked at them. Well. At least Donatello would have enough bodies to collect samples from.

Don: I guess I'll take some blood samples to test what's going on here.

Leo: Sounds like a plan. Are the rest of you ready?

Michelangelo was all for leaving. Mystee and Raphael just nodded their heads 'yes.'

Leo: Alright then. Follow me.

Time: 9:45 Location: The Lair.

Splinter sipped some of his tea as he saw his sons and their friend walk in. He noticed Raphael a d Mystee both had a lot of blood on them. Along with a lot of explaining he presumed.

Splinter: Welcome home my, sons. Now. Why are you two drenched in blood.

Raphael explained all the events from earlier to the old, wise rat, who stood there nodding his head every now and then.

Splinter: I see, but next time clean up before you step in here. Donatello, did you find what you needed?

Donatello showed Master Splinter the blood samples before he made his way to his lab.

Time: 10:00pm Location: Donatello's lab.

Donatello put each sample under a microscope. He watched in amazement as the he found something odd in the blood. Donatello was amazed at what he had found. He had to find out more about this virus. Just as he was about to log into his laptop, someone called. Donatello picked up his shell cell.

Don: Yeah?

April: Hey Don.

Don: Oh! Hi April. What's up?

April: Well I was wondering if you guys seen Casey as of late? He left 3 hours ago, and I'm concerned because of the horror that happened on the news earlier.

Don: Did you try contacting his cell?

Aprill: Yes, but I didn- wait a sec. Oh! Sorry Donnie go to go! Casey's calling!

Don: No problem. *hangs up his Shell cell* Now. Where was I? Aha!

Donatello logged onto his laptop to analyze his results. He spun his chair a couple times as he waited.

Mystee walked in without knocking and just hopped up on his desk and sat down.

Don: You could have knocked you know?

Mystee: Meh. I'm bored. What are you doing?

Don: I'm waiting for my analysis. You see, when I was looking at the blood samples I saw some kind of virus in it. I'm not quite sure what it is yet, though.

Mystee yawned as she hopped of Donatello's desk.

Mystee: Wake me up when you got something interesting to say. *walks to Donatello's bed and lies down, falling asleep.*

Donatello lightly chuckled and continued to wait for his results.

End of Ch. 2 (yayyyy)

[Lethal Lullaby]

Ch. 3

Time: 11:00pm. Location: Still Donatello's lab.

Mystee woke up stretching and yawned. She looked to Donatello who was writing something down.

Mystee: So? Anything?

Donatello had nearly forgotten that Mystee was in his lab and he jumped up.

Don: Whoa- Oh yeah. Wanna take a look?

Mystee hopped off his bed and looked at Donatello's notes and then the sample.

Don: I think I found what is causing those people to become 'zombies'. You see, Mystee this is actually a disease called Creutzfeldt-Jakob, or 'mad cow disease' The symptoms include: Changes in walking, hallucinations, lack of coordination, muscle twitching, jerks or seizures, rapidly developing delirium or dementia.

Mystee: *blink* wait. Wasn't that the disease that started in cows? So if people eat the meat then...

Don: Exactly. Also the disease destroys the brain chemical called serotonin. *looks at the clock* Come on it's late. You can sleep on the couch and I'll bring you some blankets.

Mystee: Are you going to tell your brothers?

Donatello nodded his head and grabbed some blankets as Mystee quickly walked to the couch. Donatello gave her the blankets and watched in amusement as she quickly threw them on the couch and threw herself into them. After she pulled one of the covers over her body Mystee told him goodnight. She was actually resting her eyes since she couldn't sleep.

Michelangelo walked into the living room.

Time: 11:30pm Location: Living room

Mikey: Ahh. I remembered when she was a demented and scathe vampire chick.

Don: She still is.

Mikey: Well at least not as much as before. I mean look at how peaceful she looks!

Don: Shhhh. Don't wake her up. I think she said that she was craving turtle blood.

Mikey: *turns pale* What?

Donatello laughed and told his younger brother he was messing around with him, before heading to his lab/room to sleep.

Mikey: Very funny, Donnie!

Michelangelo looked at Mystee at first a little nervous. She just layed there. Michelangelo knew it'd be rude to wake her up, but sometimes he had trouble telling if she was alive or not. He placed his hand on her shoulder.

Mystee:*growls* I'm totally not trying to sleep here...

Mikey:*whispers* Sorry.

Michelangelo walked away and strolled to his room. He climbed up on his bed and slowly fell asleep. Thinking of superheroes. Etc...

Time: 6:30 am. Location: Dojo.

Leonardo swung his sword swiftly as he practiced his form. He knew his brothers would always wonder how he could wake up so early. Leonardo put his swords in their sheaths and did a couple flips. He saw his sensei walk in and bowed before him.

Splinter: *bows back to Leonardo* I see you are improving on your technique.

Leo: Thanks, Splinter. Do you want some tea? I'm making myself some.

Time: 6:50am Location: Kitchen.

Leonardo recieved a yes from Master Splinter and walked into the kitchen. Raphael had his bowl full of sugary cereal and milk. The box was still sitting next to him and was still open. Leonardo took out a box of tea and grabbed two green tea bags. One for himself and the one he calls his father sometimes. He filled a kettle full of water and placed it on the stove. While it was heating up to a boil he picked up the box of cereal which was near Raphael. Leonardo noticed Raphael grimaced.

Leo: I'm just taking a look. You know you shouldn't eat this like that.

Raph: *with cereal in his mouth* Why mot?

Leo: *shudder* Because it is not good for your health, and if you eat too much-

Raph: *rolls eyes* Yeah. Yeah. I know. Why do you have to be such a mother hen?

Leo: *shouts* Why must you be such a child?! I just care about your well being! Sure you think you're fine now b-

Raph: Who are you calling a child? I'm older and stronger then you!

Mystee, Michelangelo, and Donatello stood in the door way. They watching as the blue and red masked turtle continued their bickering.

Don: Hey! Knock it off you two! I got something that might interest you.

The two turtles still were going at it. Plus the tea kettle was boiling and making that loud screaming like noise.

Mystee: *sarcastically* No please continue.

Mystee stepped between them and pushed them apart. She rose her hand up.

Mystee: Do I have to slap you two?!

Raphael and Leonardo quickly said 'no' remembering the last time she slapped them. They could not feel that side of there face for at least a whole two days.

Don: Thanks, Mystee.

Donatello explained to his brothers everything. The disease and how it works, and the symptoms.

Raph: So they're not zombies?

Leo: Donnie is there a cure for this?

Don: Well to answer your question Raph, they scientifically are not, but it's easier to call them that. And I don't know yet, Leo.

Mystee: Don, I'm going to go on your comp. Be right back!

Mystee ran up to his room before he could answer. When she came back down she opened her mouth.

Mystee: There's no stopping it. This isn't some normal virus. A cure was never found.

Mikey: So New York is going to end up taken over by zombies?!

Mystee: We have to find how to end this. Even if that means killing the infected ones.

Leo: But Master Splinter said to never kill people.

Mystee: Well we have to somehow capture one, too. We must keep him or her alive as long as possible, but we have to keep it contained.
Don: And?

Mystee: Then you shall find the cure. My first plan was to just convince the government to cut the meat supply out and we could kill the ones that are infected before it spreads, but that wouldn't work.

Leo: So either way we're killing people?

Mystee: I understand how you feel, Leo, but if we leave this alone or don't do something soon... I mean what if one of those humans with the virus came after Mikey or your sensei? You could knock them out but they'll just come back.

Before Leonardo answered her Master Splinter called them to the livingroom. He was watching the news which was broadcasting another attack. The news reporter said there was a total of 10 bodies killed, and the police couldn't find any suspects. Leonardo was shocked. 10 people? He knew it was wrong to kill, but he couldn't imagine what he would do if something happened to his brothers. Leonardo was startled out of his thoughts by a cry of angst. He looked at the Television which was showing the list of victims. His eyes caught onto one of them. Leonardo read the name outloud to himself and looked at his red masked brother, Raphael who was being held down by Donatello and Mystee. Mystee was petting his brother's head talking to him. Attempting to calm him down. Mystee looked up at Leonardo, and he looked right back at her.

Mystee: So? What will it be?

Leonardo nodded his head, yet he still wasn't sure. He did know one thing though. They were going to have to stop by April's. Who knew how much pain she is feeling now, and Leonardo knew that she needed them to help her deal with it. He walked to Raphael and placed his hand on his shoulder.

Leo: We'll avenge your friend, Raph. Casey's name will not go in vein.

End of Ch. 3

[Lethal Lullaby]

Ch. 4

Leo: Let's stop by Casey's farm house to check on April.

Time: 8:30 am. Location: Casey's farm house.

The battle shell drove up into the driveway of the farm. Leonardo shut off the vehicle and stepped out followed by his brothers. He noticed his youngest brother was holding a stuffed bear.

Leo: Mikey? What's with the-

Mikey: It's for April.

Leonardo shrugged and walked with his brothers and their vampire friend up to the door. He reached over and pressed the doorbell button. After a few minutes the door slowly was pulled open.

April saw her four turtle friends and Mystee and lightly smiled as she let them in.

Michelangelo quickly stood before April and gave her the Teddy bear. He told her he was sorry for her loss.

April: *hugs Michelangelo* Oh, Mikey... thanks for coming you guys. Raph, will you be okay?

Raph: *shrugs* eventually...

Donatello put a hand on his brother's shoulder to show him that he will help him get over it.

Raph: Thanks, bro.

April: I can't believe he's gone. *teardrops*

Mikey: Aww. Don't cry April. I know it's hard but we'll put a stop to this infestation.

April looked at Mystee, who was standing there looking puzzled. April figured it was because Mystee was used to death.

April: Mystee? How are you?

Mystee pondered upon the question. She saw that April was upset about Casey, but she didn't want to look like she didn't care.

Mystee: Same as always... err Sorry about your husband.

April: It's fine, Mystee.

April was still upset about the issue, but she appreciated that Mystee tried to care about it. She turned to Donatello.

April: Do you got a plan for this breakout?

Don: Sorta... Mystee came up with it. But we have to go back out to the city. Leonardo suggested we stop by here first to check how you're doing. We would stay longer but-

Mikey: *cuts Donatello off* I'll stay with her. Besides if any infected people stop by I could protect her from them.

Leo: April, will that be okay with you?

April: Yes. Mikey can stay with me.

Michelangelo felt relieved. In actuality he really didn't want to battle diseased people. Instead he used it as an attempt to look brave. Also he liked hanging with April. He waved to his brothers and Mystee as they left.

Mikey: See ya, guys!

April waved good bye. Michelangelo was suddenly at her side with a cheesy grin.

Mikey: So... Wanna watch a movie? You have cable right?

April laughed at him and told him she did.

Time: 9:30 am. Location: Turtle's Lair.

Mystee knew that it was too early for the turtles to go out now so she figured she would just see what she could do alone. After the three turtle brothers went inside...

Mystee: Well since you four- I mean 3 can't go out right now I'll just go out and see if I could grab up a zombie.

Leo: You can't go out either. The sunlight, remember?

Mystee snapped her fingers and ran into Michelangelo's room. She saw his old Turtle Titan costume in a box labeled 'trash'. She tore the cape off and threw it over her head and tied it. She ran back to the enterance.

Mystee: See ya guys! I won't be out long.

Leonardo grabbed her and looked into her eyes.

Mystee felt like he was going to lecture her. She sighed dramatically.

Mystee: Fine. I'll be back by 11 am. I promise.

Leonardo sighed and let her go. Donatello and Raphael waved to her as she quickly ran out of the sewers. Leonardo hoped she would be alright. Wait. Why would he be concerned? She's technically dead. Being a vampire and all she has fought up against some difficult challenges. He remembered when she stopped Hun from smashing Michelangelo. And when she defeated Raphael at a sparring match. Leonardo chuckled, remembering her victory dance. He shook his head and shrugged. Guessing he had nothing to worry about..

End Ch. 4 (sorry it's short)

[Lethal Lullaby]

Ch.5

Time: 9:45 am. Location: Streets of New York.

Mystee skipped along the sidewalks. With all the 'zombie' attacks going on there wasn't a lot of people out. Mystee wondered where a zombie would be.

Mystee: Don't worry you'll find one. Yes, but where? Don't worry you will find one capture it and take it back with you.

She suddenly stopped and looked back at the faces staring back at her. She realized she had been talking outpouring to herself, and answering. Instead of saying anything she quickly looked down and sped away from the small crowd, she heard someone say 'what a weirdo?' and someone call her a freak and she grew red in the face but continued her search. She finally ended up in a part of the city that was normally busy. Instead there was only about five cars and a hobo sleeping in a box in an alley. Her blond, rainbow highlighted hair flowed in the wind as she watched a beer can roll by.

Mystee: I'm gonna take a guess and say that I should have no trouble finding some infected humans here.

She continued to walk around. Suddenly she heard some movement. Looking to her left she saw that the hobo was gone. Then she heard a scream and the sound of flesh being torn. She made her way quickly to the noise, then haulted to a stop, realizing something. She hasn't had any blood to drink since last night when she went to hang with the turtles.

Mystee: Hmm. So that must be why Leo didn't want me going out. Perhaps if I just- no. I think I have enough energy to take on what's over there.

She quickly rushed over and saw the hobo lying on the pavement of the road in a puddle of his blood. She was mad that the zombies already got to him. She would never drink someone's blood after they've been infected with the disease even if they are dead. There was a moaning sound coming from behind. Mystee whipped around and saw a disoriented and gut covered woman coming towards her. She clenched her right hand into a fist and punched the woman knocking her out, but not killing the woman. Her vision was becoming blurry, and she began to feel light headed. She heard louder groans and from what she heard it sounded like footsteps of five people. Before she could prepare to fight them she fell to the ground. The last thing she saw was a flash of green and blue, before passing out.

Leonardo sliced off two of the five infected humans' arms. Then he kicked the other three knocking them out. He placed his swords back in there holders. The blue masked ninja carefully made his way around the people and lifted Mystee's back so she was sitting upright. He gave her a little shake, but she didn't wake up. Sighing he picked her up and walked to a nearby manhole cover. Before stepping in he called Donatello on his shell cell.

Leo: Don. I'm downtown coming back with Mystee. There's some of those infected people knocked out up here.

Don:*on the cell* Well take one and bring it here.

Leo: Mystee passed out.

Don: Crap. She hasn't had any blood since last night. Okay I'll send Raph to get a body, you just come back with her. I think I could get her some.

Leonardo thanked his genuis brother then hung up. He continued his way back home with Mystee in his arms. Now he knew why he was so concerned about her going out alone. As soon as he got outside the lair Leonardo typed in the passcode for the lair. The door opened up and he stepped.

Time: 10:50am Location: The turtles Lair.

Donatello saw Leonardo with Mystee at the door, and quickly had Leonardo place her on the couch. Soon after Raphael was back with an unconscious zombie and a bottle filled half way with blood. Donatello took the bottle and made Mystee drank it.

Don: I hope this will be enough. Raph, you and Leo take the body to the containment room I made that day. Make sure you wash your hands afterwards.

Raphael and Leonardo nodded their heads and did what they were told. Meanwhile Donatello watched his vampire friend stir awake.

Don: How's it going, Mystee?

Mystee: Ugh. I can't believe, Leo...

Don: Yeah he has his way knowing things.

Mystee: *nodding her head* hmm. Well thanks for the blood.

Donatello told her it was no problem and helped her off the couch. He offered to go check on the human and she followed him to the containment room.

Time: 11:35am Location: Donatello's containment room.

Don: He's still alive right, Raph

Raph: I dunno. I kinda had to beat the life outta some when I noticed someone didn't kill them.

Leo glared at Raph.

Mystee: So! Hehe. I think he's waking up.

Donatello looked through the window. They were on the opposite side viewing through to the room. Clearly he was awake. The man saw the turtles and Mystee and came running at the window. Leonardo and Raphael pulled out their weapons, but Donatello just stood there. The man bumped into the glass and banged on it, but the glass would not break.

Don: I think I'll let him tire himself out before running tests.

Mystee: I guess I'll go make you some coffee.

End if Ch. 5

[Lethal Lullaby]

CH. 6

Time: 1:00pm Location: Still Donatello's Containment room.

After a long time of watching Donatello experimenting Mystee was getting bored. She didn't want to leave him by himself with that crazy looking man. Then Leonardo came in with Raphael.

Leo: Mystee, Raph will stay and help Donnie. You can come on patrol with me.

Don: He will?

Mystee: How'd you two get to an agreement?

Raph: Leonardo reminded me what happened last time you became bored around Donatello.

Mystee: What? I cleaned up the mess.

Don: With our help. I agree, you should go with Leo.

Mystee gasped and stormed out of the room. She grabbed Leonardo's wrist and dramatically looked away from Donatello putting on one of her melodramatic acts.

Mystee: I see how it is. Can't handle this *gestures to herself*? Well fine! I'll go out with Leonardo here! And we're going to have so-

Leonardo told his brothers that he'll be back later as he pulled their ranting vampire friend out the door.

Raph: Wow.

Don: She'll be fine.

They both chuckled a little, then went back to work. Donatello turned to Raphael.

Don: You do know you don't have to stay in here. I can handle this on my own. If I need your assistance I'll call.

Raph: Yeah. I was going to get out anyways. You didn't eat lunch. I'll go make you a quick sandwich.

Before Donatello could tell his brother that it wasn't too necessary, Raphael had already left the room to make him one.

Time: 3pm Location: Streets of New York.

Mystee and Leonardo both climbed up out of a sewerhole and out into the city. New York was not as busy as it was before. Only a few people were seen and the skies were engulfed by clouds.

Leo: Well at least there isn't much people out.

Mystee: My my they're going to become very light skinned soon.

Leo: You're pale.

Mystee stopped without saying a word and the two of them stood there for a minute in awkward silence. Leonardo finally decided to break the silence.

Leo: *nervous laugh* Well the sun isn't out.

Mystee: *sighs* Let's just go.

Leo: Speak of the devils.

Mystee looked over past Leonardo and saw the purple dragons.

Mystee: You mean dragons? Well. At least they're humans and not zombies yet. I hope. *sees they're not zombies* Excellent.

Purple Dragon 1: What're you and your little girlfriend doing out here, turtle?

Mystee: Excuse me?!

Leo: Trying to keep the streets clean from punks like you.

Mystee: Sorry. GIRLFRIEND?

Leo: And she's not my girlfriend.

Purple Dragon 2: Wait I recognize her. *gasps and tries running away* I was never here!

Mystee recognized the guy. She remembered that he beat up an old man a few weeks ago. She growled baring her sharp fangs and ran after him. She jumped up into the air and knocked him to the ground. Mystee began to throw her fists into his face.

Mystee: You A**! I told you not to show your face and I wouldn't punish you!

Leonardo pulled Mystee off of him and wrapped his arms around her from behind as she tried to get out of his grip. It was difficult, since she had inhumane strength, but the blue masked turtle managed.

Leo: Hey, hey, HEY?! What's gotten into you, Mystee?

Mystee: Leo, let me go! He deserves it!

Leo: But he didn't even attack first!

Mystee stopped squirming. She looked over to the purple dragons face. It looked awful. She had snapped.

Mystee: Sorry. I don't - I didn't mean to.

Leonardo let her go as she fell to her knees on the ground, where she was looking down. He cautiously walked over to the gang.

Leo: Just because nobody is really out here, it doesn't mean you should be out robbing places.

The gang of purple dragons just began to laugh.

Purple Dragon 3: We thought we'd go beat up some of those zombies.

Mystee: Actually. They're diseased people. Ever hear of the Rage virus?

The gang of punks just looked at each other and back to Mystee.

End of Ch.6 ha! I left you off with a cliffhanger. More to come soon!

[Lethal Lullaby]

CH. 7

Time: 3:30pm Location: Donatello's Containment Room.

Donatello had ran numerous amounts of tests, but was unable to find a way to cure the disease. He looked into the glass and saw that the zombie was lying on the ground. Donatello put down a syringe he was fiddling with and frowned. If the person inside was actually dead then he would have to get another one down in their home. He decided to walk in and check on him. He opened up the door and walked inside. He got closer to the infected human, and suddenly his eyes shot open. Donatello fell back from shock and watched in horror as the diseased man clumsily stood up. Donatello reached for his bo staff and hit the man across his legs causing him to fall right on him. The purple masked turtle quickly pushed the man off before he could risk getting bitten. Yet the man looked like he was starving and would attack anything for it's dinner.

Raphael saw Donatello in the room with the zombie and immediately rushed in and grabbed his braniac brother by the arm and quickly pulled him out the room with the gut covered man chasing after them. Luckily they made it out the door and were able to close it before he got out. Raph let out a sigh of relief and punched his brother in the arm.

Don: *shouts* Ow! What was that for?

Raph: *shouts back* Donnie, what're ya thinking?! Ya could've been killed!

Don: I thought he was dead. Well I mean like permanently dead. I'm sorry.

Raphael took a breathe and put his arm around his brothers shoulder.

Raph: Just please. Promise me next time ya wanna do something crazy to tell me.

Don: I promise.

~*~

Time: 4:00pm Location: Streets of New York.

Leo: Look. We're actually out here making sure not so many zombie attacks happen. And to be honest we could use the help.

Mystee couldn't believe what Leo just said. She half cupped one of her hands and placed it near Leonardo's head and whispered to him.

Mystee: Are you crazy? You can't trust them!

Leo: * whispers back to her* I know, but we'd be able to cover more ground this way... Plus. If the infected do attack maybe they'll get rid of some of the Purple dragons. It's a win win situation.

One of the purple dragons interrupted them.

Purple Dragon 1: What makes you think we wanna join you?

Others: YEAH!

Leo: I'm pretty sure some of those zombies still got wallets on them.

Mystee: *facepalms and mumbles to herself* oh Leo. Why??

The 5 purple dragons huddled in a circle and shared their thoughts. They turned back to Leonardo and the leader shook his hand.

Leo smiled at Mystee, who just stuck her tongue out at him. Then Mystee's cell went off. It was Raphael.

Mystee: Do you need something?

Raph: Not that I care, but when are ya coming home.

Mystee put her cell down and looked at Leonardo and asked him. After he told her she picked up the cell again.

Mystee: We're coming now... *quickly whispers in the phone so Leonardo won't hear* arm yourselves when the 'seven' of us get there! *normal voice* Okay byee!

Raph: Seven?! Wait- *gets cut off*

Leo: What did you say?

Mystee: I didn't say anything. I just told him we're coming.

~*~

Time: 4:15pm Location: Turtle's lair.

Raphael saw Leonardo and Mystee walk in with five blindfolded purple dragon members.

Raph: Umm. Leo, are ya sure this is a good idea.

Leonardo quickly leaned in and told his brother his idea. Raph just shrugged. He really didn't like having crooks in his home, but he knew Leonardo wasn't an idiot.

Donatello was about to ask the same question as Raphael, but Mystee quickly told him as she walked pass him pointing two fingers at her head and doing the 'shot in the head signal'. He turned to follow her, but Leonardo had called him.

Leo: Alright. You five will follow my orders. Got it.

Purple Dragon 3: Whatever.

Raph: If ya don't, then you'll have ta deal wit us.

Leo: Exactly.

Don: *Says to Raph, so only he could hear* This isn't going to turn out clean is it?

Raphael just smirked and playfully pat his purple masked brother on the back showing that he agreed.

End of Ch. 7

[Lethal Lullaby]

Ch.8

Location: Turtle's kitchen. Time: 6:00pm

The 3 ninja turtles, 5 Purple dragons, and Mystee all sat in the kitchen. The atmosphere of the room was the most awkward feeling in the world.

Mystee: *thinking to herself* Too bad Mikey isn't here. He would have ended this silence.

Leonardo turned to Donatello. To ask him about the guy they had locked up.

While Donatello explained, Mystee made an attempt to talk to the Purple Dragons.

Mystee: So... I bet you dragons weren't expecting to be here.

Purple Dragon 2: We have names you know. I'm Chad. *points to the others* That's Austin, Joe, Nick, and Alex.

Chad had short dark blond hair and grey-blue eyes. He was 5'8" with a lean build and wore a yellow muscle shirt with brown shorts and brown shoes. Obviously his body is covered in Purple Dragon tattooed.

Austin: You're just glad we can't kill you for what you did.

Austin sneered at Mystee. He had narrow brown eyes with a green Mohawk and wore a Jean jacket over a white shirt with black pants and white shoes. He was an inch taller than Chad.

Mystee: *under her breath* F*** you too. He deserved it, in my opinion.

Austin: *glaring at Mystee* What?

Donatello put his bo in front of Austin as to tell him to knock it off.

Don: I'm pretty sure she's sorry. Right Mystee?

Mystee: *laughs* I ain't sorry. He deserved it.

Donatello just smiled awkwardly at Austin who looked fused.

Don: Alright. Who wants some pizza?

Raph: Sure. Why not?

Donatello placed the pizza in the oven and told them that it will be ready in about 17 minutes. He decided to go check up on Leonardo.

He searched their home and couldn't find him. Then Donatello found him. Leonardo was looking at the diseased man through the glass. His green suit covered in dried blood, along with his once Blond hair too. He would occasionally bang on the glass, but at the moment he was clawing at the floor. Leonardo frowned and looked at Donatello, who just shrugged.

They turned their heads to the direction of some shouting they heard. Donatello shook his head.

Leo: That doesn't sound good. Let's check it out.

When Leonardo and Donatello got to the living room they saw Mystee being pulled off of Austin kicking her legs at him and shouting. Joe, Nick, Alex and Chad were trying to get a hold of Austin, while also trying to get the knife from his grip. Donatello noticed there was blood on the knife. He quickly saw that Mystee was cut on her neck. Luckily she was a vampire, but Donatello knew she'd still be furious.

Don: *shouting* Everybody stop! Raph, bring Mystee here!

Raphael, who was holding Mystee, brought her to his genius brother who, grabbed her and held her behind her beck with one hand and held the other hand before her mouth.


Don: Mystee, spit on my hand.

Mystee spat on his hand and Donatello rubbed her saliva on her neck where it had been cut. He let out a small relieved sigh. He wanted to hurt Austin for doing what he did, but decided to just keep his cool. He was surprised Raphael didn't beat the guy up.

Austin finally calmed down and watched as her cut quickly became a scar.

Leo had gone into the kitchen to turn off the oven and take the pizza out, but quickly returned to ask his red masked brother what really happened.

Leo: What happened?

Raphael left Donatello and quickly explained to Leonardo.

Raph: As soon as Donnie left ta check on ya, Austin here took out his knife and said something ta Mystee and cut her neck. Then she went berserk and started punching him and we had to stop 'em before they killed each other.

They suddenly heard an alarm go off. It was the one for the turtles security system. The turtles pulled out the weapons and Mystee held up her hands. Alex stood up holding his chain. His brown eyes looking around as he wondered what was happening. He was about the same height as Raphael and wore a ripped green shirt with blue jeans.

Alex: Wait! What's going on?!

Raph: Somebody's trying ta break in!

End of Ch.8 Sorry it's short and I haven't updated in awhile. :toops:

[Lethal Lullaby]

(Well. haven't worked on this in like forever...)
Ch. 9

Location: Enterance area of Lair. Time: 8:30pm

Ten infected people quickly moved into the area all talking unintellignecy. They split up and tried to go after the turtles, Mystee, and the Purple Dragons.

Leo: Ten against eight?

Mystee shrugged. She had been up against a lot more.

Mystee: Nothing I can't handle.

Raph: Enough sidechat!

Raphael quickly spun his sais around and threw them hitting two of them in their stomachs.

Don: Raph, take it easy! They're still human!

One of the infected grabbed Donatellos arm. Donatello flipped the man over his shoulder and onto his back.

Mystee: Donnie. Have you even been able t-

Mystee sucker punched an infected female in her face before she told him.

Mystee: To find a cure? What if there is no cure? I'm sure there are a lot of survivors.

Don: But we're killing innocent lives! How could you live with that?!

Leonardo had to cut off the hands of a teenage boy his age who was infected in order to stop him from biting his brainy brother.

Mystee rarely grew furious with any of the turtles. She gritted her teeth and used her hyptnotism powers on the infected people. She made them all leave. And they did. She even made them forget about them. She stopped her mind control and turned to Donatello.

Mystee: You're really going to freaking ask me how I can live with the fact of taking somebody's life?! Do you think I'm just some-

Mystee could feel the side effects of her becoming weak. The hyptnotism took a lot of energy from her. She sat down and continued anyways. She sighed.

Mystee: One time my anger got really out of control. I was fed up with being treated like dirt because of my condition and how I dressed and how almost every DAMNED human being thinks vampires are all monsters. I ended up killing a total 7 people. Including my uncle.

She swallowed fighting back the tears that were coming up.

Mystee: It started with 6. I guess my uncle unfortunately got in the way and ended killing him, too. That made 7.

The turtles and even the dragons all put their weapons away as she continued with her story.

Mystee: When I came to my senses I realized what I had done. There weren't any bystanders, suspects, or anyone else nearby. I was a little confused as to why they didn't call the cops. I was in a state of panic at the moment.

Before she could finish Mystee suddenly fell to the ground. She was out.

Raphael got on the floor next her and placed his hands under her back before lifting her back up.

Raph: Mystee? What's da matter?

Meanwhile Donatello quickly headed to the fridge in his lab. He knew how she barely used her hypnosis because of how weak it made her. He came back and poured a bit into her mouth. When she woke up he gave her the 1/2 pint blood bag of blood.

Don: Mystee. I'm sorry I didn't know.

Mystee sighed and stood up. Raphael got up, too.

Mystee: It's fine. I guess. After you get used to it.

Leonardo took a quick glance at the purple dragon gang member who were all a bit speechless. Then one of them, Joe, approached Mystee. Raphael and Donatello both indescretely shot him a look of warning in case he tried to harm her. Instead Joe put one of his hands on her shoulder and tilted her chin up so he look into her eyes. Joe had bright blue eyes and dirty bloond hair that was brushed to the side. Half his head was shaven and he wore a pair of old style hippie cicular sunglasses. He was wearing just a simple gray tanktop and dark blue jeans.

Raphael was secretly hoping to himself that the punk wouldn't try anything on her.

Joe: Don't beat yourself up, little lady.

Mystee- Don't call me that.

Joe: Sorry. I know it must have been hard on you that day, but that was the past. You at least still got your parents-

Mystee: They both died when I was young.

Joe gulped and cleared his throat.

Joe: Well there's gotta be something. Anything?

Mystee smiled a little and lookd at the 3 turtles, while thinking of Michelangelo.

Mystee: Yeah there are somethings that make my life feel more meaningful.

She noticed most of the dragon punks yawning. Sheteased them a bit.

Mystee: You guys can't seriuosly be tired already?

Austin: Well sorry our skills are a bit rusty!

Mystee looked at him, but decided not to start another battle with him.

Mystee: Mrow. The pizza's cold ain't it?

Donatello sighed.

Don: Yeah it is.. WE could always microwave it.

Leo: And then we need to find out agood plan to end this mess.
