Hey all, this is my first fic , so please read and review, advice is more than welcome. Also I don't own the image.

Donnie allows his tears to fall down onto the still form of his little brother; all the time he spent learning about medicine just to prevent something like this. But, what was the point, when his baby brother can be removed from life with just a final stab.

"Tiger Claw will pay," Raph said bitterly. As the hot head glanced down at the city below, the red mask turtle didn't bother to fight his tears that were freely falling down.

Donnie's hiccups in between tears, it was only a year ago since the death of their father and now they lost their baby brother to an unexpected attack. They knew that one day Tiger Claw would return, but the fact that the mutant came back with a new generation of foot soldiers had only overwhelmed them.

Donne nuzzled his little brother forehead, hand still holding on top of the wound.

"Just you wait, you will regret the day that you killed my brother," Raph said.

Leo only sighed and if Donnie wasn't downing in his own tears, he would be worried about how quite his older brother was, but now the only thing that was on his mind was…

Why my baby brother?

Present time

Donnie blinks as he stares blankly at the wall and closes the lid of his laptop, he didn't even know why he bothered having it open. He hadn't had the strength to work on anything for a while, he didn't even bother to fix anything anymore. Broken toaster, still lying on the floor, he was meant to fix that when Mikey was alive along with a couple of other things.

He stands and sighs as he looks down towards Mikey old video game consoles he holds it in his hands as he blinks a signal tear drops down to the ground.

"Don?" he places the console down and quickly walks past Raph.

Raph, watches his brother walk past him, before his eyes turned back to the old consoles.

Donatello walks past Leo as he heads out into the sewers his eyes stare blankly at the floor below. He sits himself down and stares as he allows his mind to wonder, he's not paying attention to the time and he didn't see Raph walk up to him.

He knew it would be him that would come to find him after the death of Master Splinter Leo wasn't hanging on, but Mikey helped him to the road of recover. The youngest of the brothers helped them all, he smiled through the darkness days despite them picking and teasing on him.

"Ah, Don, don't start the water works."

Don blinks up in confusion as he blinks, he notice the tears dropping down towards the ground he wonders how long he had been crying for, but he didn't care.

"Come on Don, let's go, before Leo comes looking for the both of us."

Donnie nods and stands, slowly following his older brother back to the lair. Once inside he decides to go to sleep, there wasn't much to do and his brothers didn't seem to go on patrol anymore, sure Raph did every now and again. But Leo and Don both knew that was only an excuse to see there little brother grave at the farm house, as the purple mask turtle walks towards his room. He stops and he retraces his steps back, his eyes widen astonish at the sight.

"Hey Donnie," Leo said as he slowly turned around.

His open jaw closes at the sight, seeing Leo looking so old, but yet so young was often a sight he was used in seeing on his older brother. However this Leo didn't look anything like that, sure he was still Leo, but he looked young, it was as if years of unwanted worried and stress had disappeared and despite bags under his eyes, his age was reflected upon him.

As Donnie takes a couple of steps into the bathroom, but he freeze at the still form inside the bathtub.

Mikey! His mind yells.

Questions soon come rushing in and he doesn't want nothing more, but to hug him and to cry as he holds his little brother into his arms.

"I was trying to read one of his old comic books. Found in the stronger room, turns out Master Splinter kept all of his old stuff."

Just at the sound of his older brother voice, Donnie mind soon comes to a halt.

Old stuff.

"Why would you use and old comic book, why not one of the latest ones he keeps around?"

Donnie can't help and asked, but Leo stares and questions it, like he didn't understand where he was coming from.

"Donnie you okay?"

The purple mask turtle clears his throat, before surging it off and just going on with it.

"Yeah, sorry just um…"

"You thought he still kept reading them to. Same," Leo said as he turns his attention back towards his baby brother.

What's going on? It's not that I'm glad seeing my brother alive, coma, but alive. But why is Leo talking about Mikey like he, he, grew up.

"I guess he was serious when Splinter gave him the title," Leo slowly picks up a wet rage from a new by bowl and places it gently onto his brother forehead. "If I knew he would change this much, I would have gladly taken it, just so he didn't need to grow up."

Donnie takes a deep breath in as he dares walk towards them, he noticed the mask hanging onto the chair Leo was in. Despite Donnie not knowing what was going on, he still can't stand his older brother blaming himself, so he tries his best to convince him, it wasn't his fault.

"Leo, you know it isn't your fault," Leo smiles a little.

"Mikey used to tell me that, you know. Whenever I stuff up on mission or made a mistake, that seems about the only thing I'm good for."

Hold on Leo, making a mistake, stuffing up. What's going on?

"Leo-"

"Don, ya meant to be resting." Both turtles turn to see Raph standing at the door. "It's my shift."

Hey guys, I'm new and even though I've been a big fan of the turtle's way back, I'm still not sure if I did good or not. It's also set in the 2012 version anyway I'm more of a reader and not a writer, I'm also friends with Ninja Say Hi, she's the one who pretty much told me to go with it and if they don't like, they don't like it. But, I really hope you like it, reviews would be much loved. I don't know about updates, kind of busy at the moment jugging with two jobs, but I will do my best. Cheers!
