    Summary

    The world is safe. They won, and now they could rest, enjoy their lives, and pursue their dreams. Donnie became a famous inventor, Mickey traveled the world showing his art, and Raph and Leo restarted Splinter's line of dojos.

    Summary

    There's something wrong with Leo. He hasn't said as much to his family, but he's having visions--visions that he thinks are of a future that's on fire. And, worst of all, he keeps seeing his brothers' deaths. Over and over again. There's nothing he can do to stop them.

    Except wait. Wait and change the present.

    It all starts with a museum break-in. And Leo is determined to get the Key and keep it.

    [Or: A winding, eventual good end for the bad future.]

    Leo get's visions of the future in his dreams and as they happen, as if experiencing glitching in reality, which slowly spreads to the rest of the family... at least those that made it far enough.

    Summary

    ”Casey?” He called for his protege. He didn't receive a response causing the older turtle to swallow. “Casey Jones, where are you? This isn’t funny!”

    The turtle frowned, gaze lifting to the buildings surrounding him, the honking of cars and finally the night sky.

    He stared up at the sky in awe.

    He hadn’t seen the moon or the stars in years.

    Not since the Kraang took over.

    It had changed to a hideous red that replicated the colour of blood.

     

    ————————

     

    Where Casey forces his Sensei to come to the past with him, causing the two to separate and Leonardo takes this opportunity to steal the key.

    Summary

    Leo's mind rebelled against the sensation. The heaviness burst into awareness, body, limbs, lungs, blinking. The middle distance he'd apparently been staring in focused. Leo was awake. Leo was aware. Leo was alive.

    Being alive wasn't something he thought he'd be.

     

    or: recovery fic featuring dissociation problems, missing limbs, and Leo discovering a familiar presence in his mind. twice the trauma in one body, what could go wrong?

    Summary

    All of his life, Michelangelo has been the glue that held his family together. No one asked him to, no one told him to, he just took it upon himself one day to dry tears and remind his family they are loved.

    And when the world ended Mikey gathered up all the people he could reach into his arms and shielded them from the roaring tsunami that threatened to consume them all, and when the waves claimed some of the people he protected he just held tighter and refused to let the remaining ones shatter.

    He has seen thousands and thousands of people die, felt when their spirits left the physical plane and went somewhere he couldn’t protect them, and with every death the fire in his chest burned brighter and brighter.

    So when the resistance fell and his only remaining sibling asked him to sacrifice himself to send their last hope to the past, Mikey called upon that roaring bonfire in his chest and said, “We’re not letting anyone else die.”

    - - - - - - - - - - - -

    Or; Mikey took one look at Leo’s defeated expression and decided his family had done enough self-sacrificing

    Or; Mikey grabbed his idiot family and said “Fuck it we ball” and dragged them to a happy ending kicking and screaming
