A/N: I know it's been a while since I've posted in this one but ever since the season finale of the 2k12 series, this has been in my head! It had to be written! I hope y'all like it! Let me know what ya think!

Disclaimer: Nope, still own absolutely nothing.

"Leonardo!"

Raphael had never felt so…lost. His face pressed against the glass of the escape pod as he floated away from his big brother. He knew it was the last time he would ever see him again and the weight of it was crushing him. The pod landed in the water and Raph watched the Technodrome sink to the bottom of the ocean floor and heard the cries of his two little brothers and sister and knew that nothing would ever be okay again.

Mikey and Donnie would be okay eventually…really they would. They had him to help them with that. Mike and Don would always have a big brother to look up to. But Raph? No. Raph didn't have a big brother anymore. Raphael's big brother sacrificed himself to ensure his and his other two little brother's safety. Raphael's big brother was the best big brother anyone could've ever asked for.

Now he was gone, and it hurt like hell.

"And I gave him nothing but a hard time…if I had to do it over again, I'd definitely be nicer…" Raph heard himself saying.

"Really?"

"Really."

Wait a second…

"Leo?!"

And there he was. Alive and smirking.

And smirking!

"Leo…you dork!"

Raph wanted to punch him and hug him all at the same time. Mainly punch him. But Donnie was there, helping pull the big dork outta the water and Leo slipped somewhat but it didn't matter because Raph was there, pulling him into a tight hug. Mikey soon joined and April wasn't too far behind and soon the siblings were once again reunited and Raphael felt that weight immediately lift off of his chest.

His big brother was there.

His big brother was safe.

His big brother was home.
