Leos P.o.v

Raph walked out of his room and the second he saw me, he looked away. I'm starting to get worried.

First he didn't eat and now he won't look at me. "Hey Raph"

I watched with wide eyes as Raph jumped, clearly startled. "You okay?"

Raph didn't answer. He just looked away. Something's up with him and I'm going to figure it out.

Normal P.o.v

Raph walked to the kitchen to get some water. He did not expect Donnie to be in there too.

"Hey Raph" Donnie greeted the red-clad turtle.

"Hey" Raph whispered, barely audible.

Donnie looked at his brother carefully. Is he okay?

Just then Leo walked in. "Master Splinter said no practice today"

"What? Why!?" Raph looked at Leo.

"Cause your acting really weird Raph!" Leo shouted. Raph froze.

"Wh-what do you mean?" He stuttered.

"You haven't been acting like yourself lately little brother. What's wrong?" Leos tone and gaze softened. Again, Raph didn't answer.

"I heard shouting. What's going on?" Mikey asked as he walked in.

"Leo and Raph are fighting again" Donnie answered his brother when the others didn't answer.

"Oh should I make popcorn?" Donnie laughed at his little brothers' question.

"I don't want to talk right now." Raph looked away from his brothers.

All three of his brothers exchanged concerned glances.

Donnie looked at his red-clad brothers hands. Are his hands shaking?

Raph turned and walked out. The purple-clad turtle kept his eyes on his brothers' hands as he exited the room.

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Raph sat on his bed staring at a picture. A picture of when he and his brothers were tots. They were all smiling in the picture. I wish it was like this now. No girls. No humans. Just me, my brothers and Sensei.

Soon enough, Raph found himself sleeping.

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Raphael walked around the dark lair. "Guys?" No answer. "Hello?"

He walked into the lab. He saw a familiar figure sitting in chair in the middle of the room. "Ignored"

Raph gasped. "Donnie?" The purple-clad turtle ignored him. What a surprise.

That's when Raph realized something. Donnie's always working on something. Like retro-mutagen for Karai. So he ignores him.

And Leo and he are always arguing. Leo doesn't understand him. He doesn't understand that Karai can't be trusted.

"Don?" Raph tried again. Donnie looked at him, eyes glowing in the dark lab.

Silence.

"Come on Donnie. Talk to me bro" Raph pleaded. His plead was ignored.

Ignored…

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Raph awoke with a gasp once again. A lump grew in his throat. The nightmares just keep getting worse!

He heard a knock at the door. Clearing his throat he said, "Who is it?"

"It's Donnie" Raph froze. "Can I come in?"

He hesitated before answering, "Sure.."

Donnie walked in. "Is everything okay?"

Raph didn't answer. Ignored. That word….Donnie…..Ignored…..He was ignoring Donnie…

No! "I'm fine" He lied. Donnie wasn't convinced.

"Oh really?" Donnie had a doubtful look on his face. Raph nodded slowly.

"Okay…" Donnie took one last glance at his brother, before exiting the room.

Raph sighed.

Ignored….
