Yes, it's here! :D

This chapter hasn't any action, but you needed your heat to calm down for a bit.

...I don't want you to die x3

And blah blah bla y'know, boring stuff, they're not mine and this goes on and on...

Karai walked in the lair, her armor clinked softly as she kneeled down to her father. The man turned around and looked down at her "Did you find him?"

"Yes father." A smile grew on her face, knowing his satisfaction once he knew the news.

"I want to believe this time you took care of this."

"Even better," she stood up, sure for her win this time.

"Explain," he said as he walked to her.

"Leonardo is now carrying a microchip on him. Once he gets to their place we'll be able to track them down. We just have to wait."

The Shredder placed a hand on her shoulder "Excellent, Karai."

Leo woke up with a sharp pain in his shoulder, and a ringing sound in his head. He groaned in pain as he reached for his phone laying a few feet away from him. "Yes?" he said weakly.

"Leo? Where are you?" Donnie was in the other end of the line "Everything okay?"

Leo left out another groan "I… I met her"

"What did she do to you? Are you hurt?" his brother sounded worried.

"She… drugged me… I can't see why but… Everything hurts." He placed his hand on his shoulder "How's Raph?"

"He'll make it. He's asleep for now." Donnie stopped for a second "She drugged you?"

"Uh, yeah…" Leo rubbed the back of his head.

"Okay, listen.. The anesthesia isn't worn off yet. You'd better wait for a while until you feel better. Still, come home walking; don't wander around up there. You might get dizzy and fell off some building. If the dose isn't too big, 15 minutes are enough."

"Mkay…" he muttered as he hung up. He leaned against the wall and closed his eyes. Looking around was the worst thing he could do. Everything was blurry and spinning around him. "How… am I supposed… to go home like that?" he sighed. He couldn't stand on his feet, he couldn't even feel them. He just wanted to go home and be next to Raph, to tell him everything's gonna be fine. But he couldn't. The world was spinning around him. There was no chance he could walk even three feet. So he waited. He actually hoped he'd fall asleep; the pain was too much for him at this time.

10 minutes later…

Leo opened his eyes and carefully got up. He felt better, but he wasn't going to risk going from the rooftops. He jumped down, and made his way to the closest manhole. Most of his pain had faded away, but the pain on his left shoulder was still there, burning. He felt really grateful when he realized the manhole he jumped in was really close to the lair. He smiled, without knowing he was taking place in Shredder's plan. He tiredly jumped over the bars in the entrance of the lair. He walked to the couch and tossed himself on it. The pain had exhausted him. So many things were going on.

"Leonardo?" his father sat next to him "Donatello told me what happened. Are you feeling better?"

"Yeah, short of. I've been better," he held his shoulder "My shoulder's killing me."

"Shouldn't you tell him to check on you?"

"It's probably nothing. Where are the others?" Leo looked at the lab's door.

"Raphael is in your room. He's sleeping. Donatello said he'd keep an eye on him, Michelangelo is sleeping too."

"I'll go an eye on Raph. Then, I don't know, maybe I'll just have a nap."

"As you wish, my son." Splinter placed a paw on his good shoulder.

Leo slowly opened his room's door and looked in "Hey Donnie" he whispered, "So…how is he doing?"

"Fine, but he is badly hurt. Seems like he fell from somewhere high. He's broken five ribs, -luckily they didn't do any harm to his lungs- his left leg and his right elbow." He sighed "and his jaw got worse, he's gone through two surgeries."

Leo sat next to Raph "He's going through so many things… And so do I."

"Hey, what's up with your shoulder?" Donnie leaned over him.

"It's nothing, just a bruise. But it hurts."

"You must keep an eye on it. If it gets worse let me know, okay?"

"Sure. If you want, go get some rest, I'll stay with him." Leo gave his younger brother a smile.

"Thanks, Leo. I was actually hoping I could have a break when you come home."

"No problem." He cautiously laid on the pillow pile Raph had made, careful not to put any pressure on the aching spot. It must've been over half an hour since he was drugged and the pain was still the same. It felt like it was on fire; he just hoped it wasn't anything else.

In the meantime…

The young kunoichi was pacing in the lair inpatient, waiting for the signal. She knew her father could wait forever for this little "beep"; once he'd heard it, he'd sent all the Foot ninjas in the sewers, looking for Yoshi. But she couldn't wait. She wanted to prove herself; she wanted to take place in this battle; the faster, the better.

Beep.

Her heart jumped back in its place. "We found them," she said as a smile grew on her face.

"We'll wait; we'll study the areas they move so they don't stand a chance. And then, we'll make the turtles a visit." The Shredder said as he flashed his talons.

Leo couldn't possibly get any sleep. It had been 2 hours he was spinning on the pile. His shoulder was burning, but that wasn't the first thing that worried him. He didn't dare to sleep, afraid that Raph could get worse. He eventually got up and sat next to him. He was still unconscious, and that's what was worrying him. He placed the back on his forehead to make sure he didn't have a fever. Hours ago he was literally two steps from death; if he wasn't there… He'd be dead by now. He shivered in this thought. He just couldn't imagine his life without him. He couldn't imagine his life with someone missing, but Raph was the closest to him. Since they were mutated, they were always together. Yes, they usually got into fights, they had arguments, but he was caring for him. When Karai broke him he was the one who helped him, and before this, he was the one who tried to make him see the truth; although his methods might be aggressive, he knew he couldn't do else way. It was Raph, and he couldn't change him. And that was what made him proud of his brother. He was unbreakable, and rarely stepped back. Even when it came to Splinter. He just hoped he'd wake up fast. There were so many things he wanted to tell him. He was hoping he was strong enough to have a quick and healthy recovery. He'd missed their sparring battles. He'd even missed their fights. He'd missed everything they did together. For a few minutes he stayed silent, the heart meter's sound filled the room. Donnie said he'd plugged it in "just in case" but he didn't like it. It made him feel like Raph was dying. And he couldn't bare that, but he had to, as much as he hated it.

"You have to be strong, Raphael," he said "And I know you will. Don't disappoint me."

The next morning…

Donnie walked in the room to check on Raph, as silently as he could. He prayed Leo was sleeping deeper than usual; he didn't want to get slashed, anyway.

"I'm awake already, you don't have to worry" he heard Leo saying as like he'd read his thoughts. He spun around to face him "Didn't you get any sleep last night?"

"Barely…" Leo muttered, "I just couldn't."

"I told you, you don't have to worry. He's doing fine. He just needs good care and he'll return to his everyday activities sooner than you'll ever expect. You know he's strong enough to pull through this."

Leo looked towards his direction and sighed sadly. "Yeah… But… What if something goes wrong?"

"Like what?" Donnie said as he checked his vitals "He's doing great, considering he lost that much blood."

"I don't know… Everything can happen. And the bad is, everything happens to us."

"You can't change fate." Donnie put his hand on his shoulder "But… how did you know?"

"How did I know what?" Leo wondered.

"That he was in danger. Once we told you he left you almost fainted. Then you got up and left and in a few minutes you brought him home half dead."

"There are sometimes… You just know. I could feel it, something was wrong." Leo lied, he didn't want to tell him he saw a vision. He was scared. Scared because he saw it happening and he couldn't do anything. Scared because he knew he'd see something again. And he'd be unable to do anything.

"Yeah, but you knew where to find him, didn't you?" Donnie was now growing suspicious.

"I just knew."

"Okay… I'll be downstairs if you need me"

Leo promised himself he wouldn't go anywhere until Raph awakens. He wanted to be there when he did.

"Leonardo?" Splinter walked in his room. "Why don't you come downstairs, some training will do good to you."

"Hai, Sensei, but… I want to be here when he wakes up. There are things I want to tell him." He placed a hand on his shoulder "Plus… My shoulder is still aching. Not as bad as it did yesterday, but I can't lift my swords. Maybe it'll be fine in a few days," he added.

"As you wish, just don't give up on your training. The fact you're a ninja doesn't means you don't need further training. As long as we keep our title, we have to improve our skills. We blend in with the environment around us."

"Hai Sensei." Leo gave him a small smile "Don't worry, I'll keep on training."

"I know you will" the rat smiled back as he walked out of the room.

"Hey Leo, want something to eat?" Mikey walked in the room with a plate full of food.

"Thanks Mikey, I'm not hungry." Leo said looking down at the floor.

"Aren't you tired? Donnie said you're not sleeping… at all. You can't go on like this." Mikey sat on the floor

"I can't… It's like if I fall asleep I'm gonna lose him."

"It's been two days, Leo! You need rest!" Mikey gave him the plate "and food. You're not eating anything!" he gave his brother a worried look.

"I'll be fine." Leo sighed heavily.

"Look at you, you're not fine!" Mikey spat. " You've already lost like, 8 pounds!"

"Yeah, so?" the leader turned his eyes to his brother.

"So, you'll be the one to die if you keep going that way!" Mikey paused "… April's here. She said she wanted to talk to you."

"I'm fine with that." Leo glanced at Raph "let her in."

"I'll leave you two alone then." Mikey said as he exited the room.

"Leo?" April asked walking in carefully.

Leo turned his eyes to her "Yes?"

"The others told me what happened. The said you saved him the last second."

"Please don't remind me of that day," Leo closed his eyes. "We nearly lost him… Can you imagine that? He - he was dying in my arms and… If I wasn't there… He'd be…"

April threw her arm around his shoulders and pulled him close to her "There's nothing to worry about now. He's strong, you know it. He'll fight, with all his strength."

"You weren't there… He was scared… He looked at me and… he asked me if he'd-" he felt his eyes flooding up with tears again; he took two quick breaths trying to hold them back "he doesn't deserve to be in such pain…"

"Like you do? Don't do this to yourself, Leo." she said patting his shell "he's safe now, and nothing bad can happen to anyone of you. What did Donnie say?"

"He said he's strong enough and he'd be back to normal soon."

"See? Donnie's such a good doctor, he can't be wrong. Don't worry." She gave him a comforting smile and got up.

"If you need to talk I'm here."

"Thanks."

Meanwhile in Shredder's lair…

"What is it?" Dogpound asked leaning over her.

"He hasn't moved since he got there," Karai pointed at the red dot on the screen and frowned "there's no way he got rid of the chip, it's shoved in him."

"Isn't there any chance he's dead?"

"If that's the case, the plan got messed up. Father won't be happy. I've promised him it will work; he'll go on and on for me not killing him when I had the chance. We'll wait a couple of days… Then, we can try attacking them in the lair, but they'd be able to escape. Unless…" a smile grew on her face.

"Unless we trap them in there." The dog finished her sentence.

"Yes," Karai slammed her laptop shut and got up "and there goes plan b."

More dramatic effects! xD

Stay tuned~!
