Chapter 11: The Kiss

Leonardo looked between the furious Raphael that had just come marching down the stairs and the imposter standing next to him. "Raph?" Leo looked back and forth between his mate and Kami.

"FOOT NINJA SEIZE HIM!" Saki shouted and soon the whole ballroom was flooded with Foot Ninja.

Raph growled and pulled out his sais. 12 Foot Ninja charged at the mutant turtle, but Raph dodged 4 of them and beat the other 8 up. Suddenly several of the ninjas that surround him where knocked away.

Raph looked and saw Casey, Donnie and Mikey aiding him.

As they fought on Leo tried to get his brain around what was going on. Before Raphael, Casey Jones, Michaelangelo or Donatello had chance to react Shredder suddenly attacked them.

However, even though Shredder was a incredible skilled ninja master he couldn't handle all four of them.

As they cornered him by the stairs of the ballroom Saki looked passed Raphael's shoulder to his son, who was still standing next to Leonardo. "HE'S ALREADY TAKEN THE POTION! KISS HIM NOW!"

Raph's eyes widened in fear and he quickly turned around but it was too late.

Kami nodded to his father before grabbing Leo's shoulders and kissing the mutant turtle hard on the lips. "NO!" Raph exclaimed and dropped to his knees in defeat. It was over.

Kami slowly pulled away with a smug smirk on his face.

Leo opened his blue eyes and smiled warmly at Kami. Raph saw this and felt hot tears gather in his emerald eyes. Leo placed his hands behind Kami's head, as if trying to pull him in for another kiss.

Suddenly his eyes narrowed in fury and he head butted Kami so hard he passed out.

"Wasn't expecting that." Karai commented as she, April and Splinter rushed to Leonardo. "HAMATO YOSHI!" Everyone turned and saw a furious Shredder. "YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO GIVE HIM THE POTION!"

Splinter smirked at the scarred man.

"Well, I guess I gave him the wrong tea." He replied smugly. Shredder growled as his anger began to boil to dangerous levels. "Raphie." Leo whimpered as he ran into his mate's waiting arms.

"Oh Leo, I thought I lost you." Raph whispered.

Shredder suddenly jumped up and pulled out a small rod. it was made of brown cherry wood and had a tiny silver dragon resting on the top. The dragon's eyes glowed a terrifying red and from the dragon's mouth there was blue mist pouring out.

He aimed the wand at Leo and Raph and fired two bolts of blue lighting at them.

Raphael quickly pushed Leonardo out the way but before one of the bolts of lighting could strike him Master Splinter suddenly jumped in front of him, shielding him from the blast.

The second blast missed Leo but it ended up bouncing off a mirror and hit Karai.

"FATHER! KARAI!" Leo cried as several Hamato Ninjas attempted to restrain Oroku Saki. However, the Shredder tossed them aside like rag-dolls and threw a smoke bomb to the ground.

Disappearing from the ballroom.

When the smoke cleared from Karai and Master Splinter everyone, including Leo, Raph, Donnie, Casey, Mikey and April gasped. Splinter and Karai looked at a near by mirror and gasped as well.

Karai's eyes were now human with amber orbs and her snake fangs and forked tongue were gone.

Instead of seeing a giant brown mutant rat Hamato Yoshi saw a tall, lean and muscular man, with dark brown eyes and black hair. He wore a red kimoto with his clan's symbol on the back.

"W-We're human."

Karai traced her fingers over her face. Hamato Yoshi smiled at his oldest daughter and put a warm, reassuring hand on her shoulder. "Yes Miwa, we are human." He smiled.

"But how is this possible?" Leo asked.

Donnie walked over to the now powerless wand and examined it. "It seems that the blast that was meant for Raph would revert him back to an ordinary turtle, but since the blast hit Splinter and Karai they were turned human."

Leo sighed happily.

His father's dream of being human again had finally come true. He was dragged out of his thoughts when Raph put his arm around Leo's waist. Leo looked up only to have Raph kiss him on the lips hard.

As they kissed Raph tightened his hold on his lover, refusing to let him go ever again...
