The next few days in the lair passed uneventfully, as much as each members of the Hamato family could manage. The level of silence had risen significantly, saved for Mikey's talkativeness. The youngster tried his hardest to alleviate the atmosphere, but it seemed his effort was for naught. Despite the fact that they all agreed on their course of action, having their father locked himself away from them made it easier said than done. None could ignore the absence of the old rat sitting on the sofa, watching his favorite program, or having him supervising their training. Splinter barely left his room anymore, except for hygiene purpose. Each of his sons brought meal for him every day, mostly Don and Mikey, but he spoke to none of them. They were aware that the shock they caused for their father was far too great for him to bear; the silent treatment he gave them was punishment enough.
Knowing that, enduring it was not easy. Leo had taken it upon himself to maintain their daily schedule. Wake up, train, breakfast, meditation, night patrol... He kept everything in check as much as possible, hoping that the discipline and routine would somewhat lessen the pain they're going through. To some extent, it worked. Raph vented his depression into practice, almost to an extreme. Mikey's focus level had improved, and Don became more aggressive on the offense. The time they spent on meditation increased as well, though none could stayed as long as the eldest. Their normal activities just didn't hold the same interest.
On the bright side, knowing that Splinter wouldn't comment any further on their relationship allowed them to take it a little easier in their home. No more sneaking, no more stealing kiss around the corner. As long as they kept the noise from reaching their father's room, they could practically do whatever they wanted. Not that any of them had much idea of what they wanted to do though.
All that Leo and Raph ever did was masturbate for each other, and that's when everyone already asleep, when they're behind closed door at that. Even now, out in the open, they would only dare do to as much as to hold hands. Not that they had much chance to do so, nor that was what they wanted to do. They were, in a way, content with each other presence while doing their favorite activities. Leo found the sound of his hothead lover punching his sand bag almost as soothing as a lullaby when he meditated in the dojo.
As for the emerald turtle, having Leo spotting for him, watching him as he went through his workout, or fixing his bike felt like having a constant spring breeze washed over his tired mind. He often blamed himself for how much of an idiot he was, not realizing how much Leo meant to him. The calm demeanor, that gentle smile, not to mention the perfect angle he got every time Leo stood over him, Raph could have the perfect look upon his lover from below, with those muscular thighs radiating heat to his face; or the water-like scent he carried in his sweat when Leo helped him with their vehicles. All that made the difficult situation they're having with Splinter seemed so far away.
The two eldest discovered that their younger brothers' spirit had taken a turn for the better as well. Don's main focus was still the test. Aside from the time he had to spend with his brothers, the streaming code on his computer was the only thing that helped him forget about their depressing father. That, and his new-found love. Mikey still acted like the carefree turtle he was, playing games and dishing out lame jokes, however the time he spent with the genius had increased significantly. Either they found them in the lab with the test, or in the living room where Mikey just glued his eyes to his games, while Don sat not too far away on the sofa with his laptop in his lap. The purple clad turtle at one point gave them some update about the test, such as LH didn't have much information regarding the Utrom's ooze, while Chaplin had provided them with the data, along with a playful threat from Karai that she would raid their lair again if they disturb her quality time with her husband again.
All seemed to be in the balance at last, but a certain turtle still felt like something was missing. Indeed, they couldn't truly forget the fact that their father had practically shunned them, and no one blamed him for that. They were grateful enough knowing he didn't forbid them, nor encourage their relationship. Splinter actually didn't say anything at all, just left them be, as if he didn't care anymore. This outcome affected the four turtles, but Raph could see that Leo took it the hardest, and it showed through everything Fearless did for them. If anything, the guy needed to loosen up, before he went back to his sulking mode.
The chance for the emerald turtle to help presented itself one night, when they took a break from going topside, from training, from their usual routine. Mikey and Don were in the living room. The youngest was playing his favorite game, with his lover sitting next to him, the laptop opened in his lap but with no specific program running. Obviously Don was just there to keep their baby brother company. As Raph walked pass them, he could see Don's arm over Mikey's shoulder slightly tugged the sea green turtle closer. But he wasn't there to spy on his younger brothers. He had another one to 'take care' of.
"Yo!" Raph said entering the dojo, snapping Leo out of his meditation "Am I interrupting?"
"... Not exactly, I'm almost done anyway." Leo slowly opened his eyes, exhaling.
"Wanna go for a run?"
"Topside? I heard it's raining up there."
"Sewer run, bro. My legs feel a little cramping in here."
Seeing that he didn't have anything better to do, Leo shrugged and followed his hothead brother out. They both set to a regular pace, with Raph leading the way. Leo felt at ease simply by letting his lover take the lead. Sworn to himself that he'd never play favor again, Leo did everything he could just to prove his point. In training, the amount of time he sparred with each of his brothers was equal, but he really went all out with Raph, if not even more than usual. The emerald turtle's response was just as fierce, leaving Leo's body to feel the vibration of his strike afterward. Same with night patrol, most of the time Leo paired himself up with either Don or Mikey. He realized that none of his actions was known to their father, and even if Splinter did, Leo wouldn't know if he cared. He still did it nonetheless, as a way to comfort himself and to set an example to his brothers.
That's why time like this was rare, when they went out together. Raph had picked up the pace and heading to unfamiliar area, but Leo had no intention to be left behind too far. They both ran so fast they nearly kicked on walls to change directions, their feet glided through mud and garbage without splashing any water. Leo made a challenge to himself to match every step that his hothead lover took, and so far, he hadn't missed a single one. His eyes were so glued on the shell of the red clad turtle he almost slammed into it as Raph skid to a sudden stop.
They were at a clearing, with a reservoir not too different from the one they had back home. Water flowed in from various giant pipes above their heads, to a huge tank below. Leo assumed this was where people stored the filtered water before releasing it back to nature. The two turtles were standing on an old observing platform, just about ten feet above water level. Raph turned back to him, leaning back on the railing:
"Nice ta see ya can keep up." He smirked.
"Are we on a race here?" Leo smiled knowingly and closed their distance, but not too close as to their bodies could touch.
"Who knows? I'm just glad I didn't run with a training dummy. These last few days yer as stiff as a metal board."
"We're not exactly in the clear... yet. What did you expect us to do with sensei around like that?"
"He didn't comment on how we got together either. All I'm asking is for ya ta loosen up a little."
Reaching up, Raph pulled Leo into his arms, placing a kiss onto those waiting lips. He immediately felt the forest green body relaxed against his, with his lover's arms returning the hug. The heat soon spiked up when they both pulled each other closer, tightening the hug while ravaging each other's mouth. Raph slowly leaned backward, with Leo still in his arms, both tipping over the railing and pummeling to the welcome, cool water beneath. Even if he knew where his lover was leading him, Leo was still a bit shocked the moment water rushed to his face and into his nostrils, breaking their feverish kiss. As bubbles dissipated around them, the blurry line of the emerald turtle revealed him for Leo to see. Despite darkness, the gleam from the golden orbs was unmistakable. Raph slowly pushed them both upward to the surface, not passing on a chance to nib on the forest green neck. This caused Leo to gasp and blurt out the remaining air, but he soon broke the water border and sucked in a lungful of cool, refreshing oxygen from above.
Raph was still by his side, casually stroke the water to push them both toward the edge of the reservoir, where a set of stairs was built to lead to the bottom. With one powerful stroke, Raph almost lifted Leo up above the water before setting him down on the steps. The emerald turtle climbed out of the water after his lover, his hands went down to massage the sides of Leo's body, between his plastron and shell. Calloused fingers pressing here and there, drawing never-ending churr from the blue clad turtle. Leo moaned at a hand ghosted over his tail, the prickling sensation caused goose bumps on his skin. At this point his mind was void of worries, void of stress and frustration, only blissful ecstasy. Raph was more than eager to please the wriggling form of his lover, one hand lightly pinched the forest green tail, the other giving feather-like touch over the grooves on Leo's shell. He gasped at the nails scratching on his shell, his spine straining to receive more of the euphoric feeling.
It wasn't long before Fearless's cock made its appearance, just how Raph wanted it to be. Leo whimpered when cool air hit his abandoned neck, but a jolt soon coursed through him at something wet touched the tip of his erection.
"YAH! R-Raph...!?" Leo snapped his head down to see where Raph's licking with his tongue. The emerald turtle had slid back to the water and spread his thighs wide, his golden orbs on the same level with Leo's turtlehood.
"What? Ain't ya bored of the handjobs every times we get together?" Golden orbs stared up to him, pinning him place "Thought ya might wanna try something new."
"B... but..."
Before Leo could finish his sentence, Raph had encircled his lips around his lover's throbbing member. Stars exploded in Leo's eyes as his glance scrapped the roof of Raph's mouth. Slowly, Raph inched his way forward, taking more and more of Leo, emerald green hands groping forest green's ass, preventing Leo from backing for what he's about to do next. The moment Leo's cock touched the back of his throat, Raph couldn't help but gag. The gurgling sound snapped the blue clad turtle out of his lustful trance. He put a hand on Raph shoulder to push him back, but another scrap of his glance against Raph's throat turned it into jelly.
"Hah... R-Raph... ah... d-don't... ah!"
Leo's strength simply left him altogether, he could only sit there and enjoy the ride Raph's giving him. That blessed (or cursed, Leo wasn't too sure which) tongue of the hot head just kept flicking at the tip of his cock every times he pulled back, jolting him to no end. And each slam to the back of Raph's throat melted his muscles faster than ice-cream under blazing sun. The blue clad turtle was more than ready to slump to his shell, but the sight of his lover sucking him off was too erotic to pass up, he had to muster everything of him to keep himself upright, so he could have the best view.
From behind, Raph's fingernails dug to Leo's ass, kneading it, scrapping along his tail. The pressure from the aphrodisiac he received from his cock and his tail was too much, almost to the torturing level. Churr, moan and even scream flooded out from Leo's throat, rising above the noise of the falling water. It was overflowing… It was a tsunami ready to hammer him down.
"Ra… Raph… Please… I-I can't take it anymore… Please…"
Leo's begging was the final drop. The moment those words reached the hothead's ears, he gulped back everything and rammed his lover's cock as deep as he could take. The vomiting sensation be damned. Raph swirled his tongue around the base and gave it a hard tuck. It was then everything exploded.
"RAPH! AH!... AAAH! RAAAAAAAAAAAAPH!"
It felt like going through a spasm, a seizure of pure ecstasy. Part of Leo's body went absolutely numb, other enhanced to the max. He cried out his brother's name far louder than his ears could register, feeling wave after wave of pleasurable electric surged through his entire body. Leo hadn't a slightest idea how long his own orgasm last, but this time was definitely longer than any time he had before. At one point he thought he might pass out from it.
During Fearless's whole climax, Raph had an iron grip on his lower body, feeling those forest green legs thrash around his head, as well as every single shot of semen shooting to his throat. Despite pulling back in time, Raph could barely handle the amount of cum flooding in. But he refused to let any drop go to waste. Gulping down as fast as he could, the emerald green turtle swallowed while keeping his head bobbing, stimulating Leo even more than he already had.
Leo's whole climax lasted for no longer than a few second, but to the eldest, it felt like he just paid heaven a visit and came back. The moment Raph let go of his deflated cock was also the moment he collapsed on the stairs. Raph instantly surged up to catch his limping brother, cradling him in his arms, his lips still dripping some of Leo's juice. It took Fearless's brain quite a while to form proper word.
"It… was… unbelievable…"
"Thought ya might say that." Raph smiled, nudging Leo's head "But I already heard ya screamed, probably along with the whole city."
"How… when did you…?"
"Porn. If ya want I can clue ya in." Raph chuckled.
Leo could only let out a hopeless, breathless laugh. He really didn't see this coming. And here he thought his baby brother was the only one full of surprises. Brought up a shaking hand to stroke Raph's cheek, Leo craned his head to look at those golden orbs:
"Thanks, Raph. I really need this. I'll be sure to return the favor."
"Damn right ya will. And when we're done with the test, there's a lot more where that came from for ya. So better brace yourself."
"I don't think you can wait that long. And I'm a fast learner, remember?"
"Prove it!" Raph leaned in close, his eyes darkened with lust.
They're going to be stuck here for a little longer before coming back home…

The cyborg skeleton that was Baxter Stockman treaded around the room, minding assignment that Bishop gave him. True to his word, the government agent had put the once brilliant scientist under highest level of restriction and surveillance, even when he already gave Stockman some top secret projects for him to work on. One of the scientists handed him a clipboard, with report of Stockman on it:
"The medication seems to take effect." He explained "However, his brain wave activity is still unstable."
"Increase the dosage by 0.05% for the next three days, then report to me." Bishop ordered flatly.
"Yes, sir… May I ask." The man in white lab coat lingered around "Why would you want to keep a mad man like him around? He's only a brain left."
"That's exactly why I want to keep him" Bishop scowled, stiffening his subordinate "The intelligence of Baxter Stockman can only be developed to its full potential under dire circumstances such as this. If he cooperates, he can boost human's technology by decades, providing that he has a body to call his own."
"You can't be serious, sir! We can't even speculate what he's thinking. He might be planning to turn against us as we speak."
Just at that moment, a flashing screen drew their attention. Bishop activated it to see Baxter on the other end.
"I'm listening" The man in black stated.
"I just completed analyzing all the samples you gave me. It's a miracle this facility can still operate on it."
"I don't need your comment, Stockman. All I need is the improvement you can provide."
"Of course I can improve it, nitwit. But there's something you need to see. It's about your body."
Baxter pressed on the last part, nearly laughed out loud as how Bishop's eyebrows slightly twitched. Nothing was more important to that man than his own lifespan, so he could continue directing his pathetic EPF.
"Meet me in the sub office. We will discuss further."
Seeing how fast Bishop cut the transmission was more than enough to put a smile on Baxter's face, should he had lips to form it. Now the trap had been set, waiting for his prey…
