As I went back home, I was really angry. Why? Because of how Leo handle things. He insists it's our fault that New York has become a war zone between the mob, the Foot, and the Purple Dragons. Why did he say it's our fault? Because the Shredder is dead, that's why. I don't want to get involved in this; it's their problem, not ours. Hey, even Casey agrees with joining up with them, saying he plans on fixing messes.
I was making punches on the punching bag in anger for all those things that had happened. As I make the strongest punch, it just broke down that it was thrown down. If that wasn't enough, Master Splinter is about to get in its way, but he just jumped out of the way. He looks at it, and he looks at me with anger on his face. I'm in big trouble.
"Raphael, what is the meaning of this?" he asks angrily.
I replied coldly as I don't want him to know what is wrong with me. "It's nothing. Besides, shouldn't you help Leo and the others with the war against the mob, the Foot, and the Purple Dragons?"
"War?" he calmed down of his anger at me and gets curious. "What war?"
"I don't want to talk about it," I acted cold, still refusing to say that I was really mad at how Leo handle things. Just then, Master Splinter approaches me near.
"Really?" he said before he considers whacking me in the head. "I think you're lying, Raphael. Tell me what's going on right now. Sit down, let's talk about this."
I took a deep breath and I told him the whole story about how Leo insists that it's our fault that the mob, the Foot, and the Purple Dragons are fighting for control in the city. I was really mad at him for that; I didn't asked to get involved in this. To top it off, Karai, a ninja working with the Foot, has made a truce with Leo and the others into ending the war. I left because 1.) I was mad at Leo, and 2.) I don't trust Karai.
"I see," my master said in concern. "You know, Leonardo did all that because he really loves us."
"Oh yeah?" I questioned.
"Yeah, he wanted to do this to the human friends we have on the surface world. Think of April and Mr. Jones. They helped you, you know," he explained. I decided to think things over. As I thought about them, I thought about the good things I had done for them. "Also, think of how Leonardo does things for you."
As I thought of Leo, I thought of the times I did good for him as well. Those thoughts have absorbed my mind, and before you know, I finally realized something. About what is going on recently.
"Oh no," I finally found my answer as I calmed down. "What have I done? I was such an idiot. All I wanted was to not get involve in this mess, but it's too late for me to turn back. Leo should have realized that he needed me since I helped him many times."
"Then you must go and help him and your brothers right away," Master Splinter suggested. That's exactly what I'm going to do.
"Okay," I stood up and ready to go. Since Leo made that deal with Karai, I know where they're headed: the old hideout of the Shredder. Isn't that obvious?
"Wait, take me with you," my master stood up as well.
As we run off to the Shredder's old hideout, I knew I would be coming to the rescue. Hold on, Leo, Don, Mikey, and even you, Casey. I'm coming for you all.
