Raph's POV

"DANIEL?" Everyone roared questionly, I knew this couldn't be good. Lucy doesn't keep any more secrets since everyone had made up about the secrets in the orphanage, but no one seamed to know this Daniel guy.

"Still as beautiful as ever I see." He sneered as he stroked Lucy's cheek. Leo clenched his jaw and seamed to be going through the pros and cons of nailing the guy then and there.

"Stop it Daniel." Lucy spat as she took a step back and into Leo's arms.

"Aww, look at that, little Lucy's gone into a relationship with one of the teenage mutant ninja turtles." Daniel said.

"How do you know who we are?" Donnie demanded, taking a step over to Danni to protect her.

"I know everything about you freaks, from your chosen weapons right down to your greatest fears. Speaking of which," He turned to Leo. "how does failure feel Leonardo?" A growl escaped Leo's throat, but it wasn't a growl of anger, more like a growl to mask his insecurity. A side of Leo no ones ever seen.

"I've been there all the time. I was one of Bishop's agents when Donatello became a monster. I was one of the foot when Leonardo was captured in the rooftop. I was Bishop's assistant when he almost dissected Michelangelo. And you," He spat out as he walked closer to me. "i've always despised you. Your loyalty, your fighting spirit, even when you're injured. It makes me sick. "

"That ain't my problem Dan." I replied coldly.

"No, it's not Raphael, but this is."

Daniel pressed a button and at least 1000 foot ninja came in. Before I could react, 4 of them restrained me. All I could do is watch as my family got bruised and battered one by one.

"NO!" I shouted as I struggled against my restraints. "STOP!"

"Aww, doesn't little Raphie like the show?" Daniel teased. "But you know, I know someone who would love to get their hands on you. So I'll cut you a deal, we'll stop and never bother your family again, neither the foot nor the dragons will touch them. If, you surrender and come along peacefully."

I knew they would undoubtedly kill me, properly torture me too. It would be the most horrible pain I had ever faced, and I wouldn't be able to stop it.

"Deal."

Leo's POV

The ninjas stopped and retreated back to Daniel before disappearing. Raphael was standing next to him, now unrestrained, but no doing a thing about it.

"See how easy that was Raphael, we should have offered this years ago. Who knew it was this easy to break you?" Daniel said.

"Raph, what did you do?" Donnie demanded.

"We made a deal. The purple dragons and the foot will no longer terrorise you or cause you any trouble."

"Because?" I persisted.

"Because Raphael here has surrendered." He continued.

No one spoke for a bit. My eyes never left Raph, his head was hung and his eyes were shut, as if he was trying not to cry.

It was me who broke the silence. "Hamato Sanzino da Urbino Raphael, what the hell do you think you're doing?" I shouted.

Raph tensed up and shut his eyes tighter, we never used our full names.

"Just-just let me sat goodbye." He said barely above a whisper.

Daniel frowned. "Fine, but any bright ideas and my master will finish all of you off right now."

He nodded then walked towards the awaiting family and friends.

"Raph, what are you doing?" Mikey asked, on the verge of tears.

"Saving you. This deal, it's your chance to have a life without having to fight idiots every day."

"But Raph-" Donnie started.

"Look, you guys are gonna make me cry, which is just gonna make me clobber you, and I don't want that." He pleaded before hugging both Donnie and Mikey in turn. He then hugged the girls and kissed Rox. Then he came to me.

"Goodbye Leonardo." He said.

I said nothing but starred him in the eye before looking to the floor. Raph sighed before walking back to Daniel. They started to walk back.

"Wait." I called out.

The room all turned to me. I stepped forward and starred at Daniel before looking back to my brothers and friends.

"I love you guys." I said.

Then I turned back to him. "I refuse to let this happen."

"But Leo-" Raph started.

"Let me finish." I interrupted. "I refuse to let this happen, unless you allow me to go too."

"No." Raph demanded.

"Hang one Raphael. While I have a hatred towards you, my master has one against your brother. Deal accepted." Daniel stated.

"Leo?" Megan said questionably .

"Go back to the lair and tell splinter what's happened but that any rescue is prohibited."

"But-" Lucy started.

"GO!"

They started to run.

"Donnie, wait." I said suddenly. Donnie walked back to me.

I took his hand. "Take care of everyone. You're the oldest now."

He nodded before running off. I walked back to Raph and Daniel. Daniel cuffed us and walked us up to our doom. I could only hope that Donnie would understand the message on the paper I had just pressed into his hand.
