I didn't like this. Everything was going wrong and I was getting scared. Two nights ago Usagi had yelled at Leo, and when Raph brought him home he didn't even wanna talk to him. I dunno what happened. Why was Usagi mad at Leo? All Leo's done is look after him and try to help him. I didn't understand.
Bishop was the one this blue-suit guy was working for. Man, of all the people in all the world, why'd it hafta be Bishop? I won't lie, he scared me. He scared me more than the Shredder did. The first time we ever met him he tried to cut me open, and he would've too if Master Splinter hadn't arrived when he did. I still have nightmares about that sometimes, but I don't tell any-one that.
Leo was really upset by what Usagi had said. I felt really, really bad for him but I didn't know what to do. I wanted to say or do something to cheer him up but I couldn't think of anything. I really don't like it when Leo is sad.
He and I had headed home after all the stuff on the roof happened. Donny had stayed behind to check out Bishop's building from all angles. He said he was gonna try look for any weak points and stuff. Leo didn't say anything on the way home at all and when we got back we just waited for Raph and Usagi to come home before we went straight to bed. The next morning we found Don had come home while we were asleep and was already working on something to try and get inside Bishop's hideout and see what's in there. He hadn't slept at all.
Usagi and Leo weren't fighting or anything but there was this weird vibe between them that wouldn't go away. They were talking and stuff but it sounded stiff and just weird to me. I didn't like it.
I wasn't tired. I couldn't sleep no matter how hard I tried. I curled up, pulling the blankets over my head and squeezing my eyes shut tightly but nothing helped. I wasn't sleepy. I sat up and got down from my bunk. Maybe some warm milk would help. There was no way the others were gonna let me sleep in tomorrow.
I opened my door and looked around the lair. Leo wasn't on the couch any-more. When we realised Usagi was gonna be around a little longer we drew lots and he ended up bunking with Don. So the place was empty and quiet.
I snuck out my room and went to the kitchen. For some reason the light was on. Did we forget to switch it off? I frowned, confused. Was some-one else up? I could hear some-one inside. I walked in to see who else was awake, and stopped.
Usagi was sitting in a chair at the table. He wasn't wearing his kimono, just the juban that goes under it. His elbows were on the table and his face was in his hands. I could see him shaking.
I blinked quietly to myself, I didn't know what to do. Should I get Leo? No. No Usagi's mad at him. That wouldn't be a good idea.
I didn't know what to do.
He gave an sudden jerk and I heard the suck of air as he stifled a sob.
I bit my lip and shook my head, walking towards him.
He heard me and twisted around in the chair to see who I was. His eyes were wide, alarmed at having been seen. They were glistening from too much water.
I walked over to him, put my arms around him and clutched him tightly.
For a few moments he didn't move, frozen stiff. Then he sunk, gave a spasm and broke down.
I tightened my grip, clinging to him. I could feel a lump rising in my own throat and my eyes starting to burn. I tried to choke it down.
"It'll be ok Usagi..." I said in a voice that didn't sound like mine.
He didn't say anything, but I felt an arm come up and hold on to me. It strengthen its grip around my shoulders as he continued to cry. His whole body wracked with sobs.
I shut my eyes tightly, feeling something run down my own cheeks.
"It'll be ok..."
