Me: welcome to my sequel! This chapter is just a recap of the last chapter in the first story so you can remember what last happened. Good idea, eh? Anyway, hope you enjoy!

Recap

"Raph!!" the brothers screamed together. Raph rolled away just in time to avoid the ninja from landing on top of him, the sword stuck in his own gut. Raph jumped up.

"Ha! Thought he got me did ja?" he laughed as he pulled out his sias. He spun around and kicks a ninja and Leo saw that the sword scratched his shell, right over the hole/scar from his last meeting with the foot. Apparently Raph jumped out of the way before the katana impaled him. Now that Leo thought about it, that scream didn't even sound like Raph. Raph gasped in pain as he slammed on top of another ninja. Leo focused his attention back to the ninja that was attacking him.

Before long all the ninja were defeated and they ran away, closer to their own home. Raph ran as fast as he could, which caused him even more pain than he was already in. he was forced to fight just to protect himself, but he didn't mind. He missed kicking butt.

They all jumped from roof top to roof top as they traveled but Raph's eyes began to fog up with pain. He jumped off the roof to early and fell to the concrete ground. He landed with a loud thud and the others skidded to a halt.

"Raph!" Leo screamed, running back to the edge. He jumped down and ran over to the unconscious brother. Donnie jumped down next to him and checked if Raph was ok.

"Turn him over." Donnie ordered as he pulled something out of his belt. Leo rolled Raph onto his plastron and watched as Donnie opened the small vial in his hands. In the vial was a very runny brown liquid.

"Uh, Donnie, what is that stuff?" Leo asked nervously.

"Watch and observe." Donnie said with a small smile. He poured the liquid into the hole where he got the sword stuck those few years ago. The liquid absorbed into the scar and nothing happened. Just then Raph stirred and Donnie looked pleased with himself.

"Whahapn?" Raph mumbled. (If you can't tell what he said, it was what happened.)

"It worked. I made this earlier today. It's a medicine for Raph so he could do a little more than sit around all day. The stuff I just put in him now was the first part. It stabled his nervous system a little now and I just have to make more of the second part for him to take every day and he can train with us once in a while." Donnie explained. Leo stared at him in bewilderment.

"No thanks are necessary." Donnie said in a pleased tone. Leo smiled and looked down at his other brother.

"Yo, what's going on? Is Raph gonna be ok?" Mikey asked when he landed next to them.

"Yeah Mike, I'm fine." Raph mumbled barley loud enough for any of them to hear. They all smiled and helped Raph up and back to the lair. When they got in there Leo brought Raph to his room and Donnie went to his lab to work on the medicine.

'Raph, you're stronger than any of us thought. You could have died many times since that incident. I've caught you loads of times trying to train. You never gave up, have you? That's why you're one of my role model's.' Donnie thought as he worked.

'Dude, you'll be fine. You're my big bro and I know you won't leave any of us alone. You promised it years ago.' Mikey thought with a smile as he relaxed on his bed and pulled out his comic books.

'Raph, you're my brother and I'll never stop loving you. You never let me down and I will be there for you when ever you call. Just remember that day seven years ago and remember that I will always keep my promise.' Leo thought as he took one final glance at Raph as he left the room. He could have sworn he saw a smile spread on his brother's face as he slept, and he wondered what he was dreaming of.

'Guys, you knew you could count on me.' Raph thought when he heard the door close. He sat up and crawled silently to the floor. He dug around under his bed and pulled out a small box that was filled to the brim with loose leaf paper and a few journals that were completely filled. This was his real secret obsession box, not the one he had shown Leo. This one he was waiting to show him if anything really bad happened.

Raph pulled out a piece of paper and a pen and began to scribble something down. He turned the paper to the back and continued to write. Once he was done he put it back in the box and shoved the box back under the bed. He crawled back on his bed.

The paper he just wrote on was sticking out of his bed slightly, well at least the corner was. The only thing that was readable was the title. It read My Brothers Forever. Raph smiled one more time and pushed the paper farther under his bed and fell asleep.
