They say when you die there is no pain, they say when you die your life flashes before your eyes. Well I'm here to tell you that there is not truth in them sayings, because as I watched my older brother die, I saw nothing but pain and cold empty eyes. No he died in vain, and it was a honorable death, he died protecting my me and my brothers, no our brothers. He may be gone but he is part of our family and a few days ago I was lucky to find a journal with one final entry.


Dear my old friend,

I have a feeling something bad might happen, no it will happen. I will soon departure from this world and not see my brothers again. My sensei will grieve but he can get through this. Either way I don't know how long I've got so my precious family, Thank You and please don't blame yourself it's not your fault however I died so please understand I will be there in spirit. Thank You for all the love and care given to me. My comic books are Mikey's if he would like them as well as my Skateboard. My books are Donnie's. My Paintings and Journals are sensei's. when you find Karai please give her the blade under my pillow, it was hers to begin with. Finally Raph I give you my most precious gifts, To you I give my Katana's and the role of Leadership, look after them Raph I know you can do it.

I almost forgot my amazing human friends. To Casey, I leave my old throwing stars and some rocket blades I was given when I was little. Finally April, You can have the pictures and anything else you need to get through this.

Goodbye my precious loved ones

That's all we have left of him, now his Katana's are in a case in my room where spike used to be and I read the journal every night, he also left a bunch of notes of how to be a good leader. His death might have been painful and sad. But I know one thing. He had a peaceful life.

The funeral was sad LH started and Mikey finished the service.

Lh "Today we close the incomplete story of Hamato Leonardo's life, this tragedy has shook all of our hearts and boggled our minds but now we clear the air for the dawn of a new time."

"Leo, bro where do I begin, you saved my life so many times. You were the strongest warrior I knew. You guided me in the right direction when I needed you most. You comforted my nightmares and taught me new tricks. I regret a lot of things but what I regret most, Is how I repaid you. Given a second chance I would be there for you, guide you through the darkness that engulfed you. Sleep Well my big Brother, Sleep free. My hero." Hero, Mikey called Leo his hero, that's what I regret. Never calling him my hero until it was too late. Well big brother you are my hero, Strong, brave and happy.

Sleep well, I love you

-Hamato Raphael
