When the pulled up to the outskirts of the house they piled out of their cars and waited for Leo's orders.
"Cullen's do a sweep of the perimeter. Dispatch any stray then join us inside once done. We show no mercy to these fuckers. Everyone else follow me. Casey keep an eye on April and Vern." Leo said and everyone nodded and the Cullen's were off in different directions to make sure no one was hiding outside the gates.
The turtles and humans snunk quickly and quietly into the familiar house. They saw several purple dragons and even a few foot clan soldiers standing around.
"She's not breaking." They heard a familiar voice and Raphael's eyes narrowed. Karai, shredder's right hand was talking with Bella's old boss as he wiped Bella's blood off his hand. With a nod from Leo the turtles ran forward and started taking out the gang members and foot clan members as they made their way towards the room they now knew Bella was being held in.
Once they made it inside the turtles saw red. Bella was chained to a wall, bloody and passed out and there were a ton of gang members standing around waiting for the turtles to make a move. Just then the Cullen's came bursting through the windows and growled in anger as they saw Bella.
"attack." Karai yelled and the fight was on.
Bella came too just in time to see Karai swing a sword around and aim right for her but was stopped by a pale hand. Looking up Bella saw Jasper glaring daggers at the Asian women as he kicked her in the stomach and sent her flying into a wall before yanking the chains off the wall and off her hands.
"You ok Bella." He ask and she nodded as Emmett came over and helped her up. Looking across the room she saw Raphael fighting. A foot clan member snuck up and stabbed him in the leg causing him to cry out and fall down and Bella was pissed.
Looking around she picked up two knives and brushed off Jasper and Emmett and her pain and ran quickly sliding under Leo's legs and stabbing the foot clan member through the jaw that was just about to kill her boyfriend.
"Not today fucker." She spat as he dropped to the group and Raphael stood back up and pulled Bella to him carefully, cupping her cheeks in his hands and checking her over.
"I'm so sorry." He tried but she shushed him and kissed him deeply.
"Not your fault. I'm alive. Thank you for coming for me." She said and he gave her his signature smirk.
"Anit no way in hell I'd even not come for you babe. I love you." He told her and she smiled at him.
"I love you too." She said before they had to jump back into the fight and more gang members flew towards them. Bella ignored all her injuries as she fought at Raphael's side before she was finally able to slice through the neck of her old boss and she honestly didn't feel bad about it at all.
"Let's head out." Leo called out as the last of the gang members fell. Nodding Bella turned to follow but her injuries caught up with her and she grabbed onto Mickey as her eyes rolled back in her head and she heard her everyone call our her name as she was caught in a familiar pair of large arms.
"Bella." Raphael yelled as he caught her in his arms and ran towards the van. They needed to get her home so Donnie could fix her. They knew the Cullen's were following and once home Donnie and Dr. Cullen worked together to make sure Bella would be ok while everyone else paced.
"Look I wanted to say I'm sorry. I, we should have came here and upset Bella and cause her to get hurt again. Yes I'll always love her but I messed up by leaving her broken and you guys patched her back up and I can see she loves you more than she ever loved me. I just want her happy." Edward told Raphael as they waited. He started the Vampire down for a moment before nodding. He still didn't like the prick but at least he didn't feel like he was going to take Bella from him. Now he was just worried about his girl friend's health.
April and Casey spent the time trying to make everyone feel better but really nothing would have calmed them down until they knew how Bella was.
After about an hour Donnie and Carlisle came out and Donnie sighed.
"She's ok. Concussion and some fractured ribs, bruises and cuts but nothing life threating. We just need to let her rest and heal and Raph you'll need to wake her up every couple hours to make sure she's ok." Donnie said and Carlisle nodded in agreement. Everyone sighed in relief and Master Splinter patted Raphael on his back as he walked past Donnie and into the lab so he could see his girl friend for himself.
Raphael sighed as he sat in the chair at her side. She had a large bruise on her check and around her wrist and he could see her rib area was bruised as well from where Donnie had wrapped them. Picking up her hand he wiped the tears from his eyes. He was scared to death he would lose her and now she was back but hurt he didn't want to leave her side.
He loved her so much. She was everything to him now. She blew into his life and brought a light and happiness he'd never thought he'd have. His family loved her so much. He could see and feel there worry when she was taken and now while she was hurt. If anything were to ever happen to her it would kill them.
The Cullen's left soon after that with a promise that they would come by in a few days to talk with Bella. They wanted to apologize to her and make it right and the turtles couldn't wait to see that conversation once Bella was back to her old feisty self.
Raph moved Bella to their room so she could rest more comfortably and woke her up several times throughout the night. They waited on her hand and foot and by the 3rd day she was ready to get up and get back to normal life. Sensei Splinter called off training and patrols until Bella was fully and completely healed. She wasn't happy about it but Raphael begged her to rest and let her body heal and she agreed, for him. She'd do anything for him. She loved him with a fierceness that scared her sometimes but she loved it at the same time.
On the 4th day she and the turtles were sitting around the lair watching movies and eating pizza when Donnie's monitors went off causing them all to jump. Bella winced as her ribs protested her jumping off the couch too fast but Raphael was right there to steady her. She hated being weak and couldn't wait to be healed.
"Cullen's coming." Donnie said and they all relaxed and sat back down. Bella rolled her eyes, she knew they'd be back she just hopped it would have been a lot longer of a wait.
5 mins later Bella looked over the back of the couch to see Emmett pushing open the door to their lair and they all walked in. Bella sat back against Raphael before deciding to slide across his lap with her back against the arm of the couch and her legs across his lap. The Turtles chuckled at Raphael's face. Whenever Bella touched him he always looked like he was going to lose it and for her to draped herself over him like that in front of her ex and his family really boosted Raph's ego.
"Bella, how are you doing?" Carlisle ask as they walked forward. She shrugged.
"Better for sure. I'm ordered off training and patrolling until I'm completely healed." She said and he nodded.
"Your letting her patrol after she almost died?" Edward ask and his family rolled their eyes at Edward as Bella glared at him.
"Excuse me? Let me do something. Screw you Edward. I make up my own mind. No one makes my decision for me for 'my own good' anymore." She said as her body tensed. Raph could tell she was pissed and he rubbed her arm and leg to calm her down. She smiled at him before glaring back and Edward who held his hands up in surrender admitting defeat.
"Your right. I'm sorry. Sorry we made you feel that way." He told her and she nodded.
"Bella we wanted to come apologize. We know the way we handled everything was wrong and we hurt you dearly. We only wanted to keep you safe and the things I said to you in the woods were all lies. I loved you still do but I know you would be on constant danger with us and I refused to ruin your life by turning you so I made what I thought was the best choice and I see now that was wrong. I know we can never get you back as you've found happiness now we just hope you will forgive us one day. Maybe keep us up to date on how you're all doing?" Edward said and Bella stared at him with her mouth open. She never thoughts she'd see the day Edward Cullen would admit he was wrong.
"You're right. You were completely wrong. You treated me like a child instead of your girlfriend and it was my choice if I wanted to be turned or stay human not yours. And you're right. I have found happiness. I found a family that does want me and doesn't control me. I found a wonderful man that doesn't make choices for me and loves me for me not for who he can turn me into and I have purpose now. I'm no weak or stumbling through life anymore. I belong here and I'm never leaving. If you want to keep in contact with us that's fine. Donnie can give you our contact information but unless we ask for help I don't want you to interfere in my life." She said and they all nodded. The Cullen's knew the Bella they knew was gone and this new Bella wasn't taking their shit anymore and they would be lucky if she actually kept in contact with them.
"Thank you for helping save Bella." Leo told them as they were leaving. They nodded and left and Bella let you a sigh of relief. She has no clue why she ever wanted to be a part of that up tight family in the past and she was glad she found the turtles.
Raphael was on cloud 9 the rest of the evening. Bella had called him a wonderful man and it made him feel so good about himself. He always thought of himself as a weak link compared to his brothers. Yeah he was strong but he had a temper and was never really sure of himself but now with Bella. He felt like someone. Someone he was meant to be.
