No one made mention the next morning about finding Leo and Raphael snuggled up on the couch together. They were all just too happy that the brothers had finally reconciled. Perhaps the happiest of, though, was Leo himself. After a long, hard haul over the past several years, he had finally found peace. He and his original family were finally back on track. He and Raphael had regained the brotherly relationship they had misplaced somewhere between childhood and adolescents. Donatello had become one of Leo's greatest supporters, and Mikey was once again the loving, adoring baby brother from years past. But on top of that, Leo had found a second family that, if anything, loved him even more than his first one. Raph, Donny, and Mikey were all like parts of himself he hadn't even known were missing until he'd found them.
True, things didn't always go smoothly. They were seven teenagers living in one household; fifteen minutes of peace was a miracle. But they were working things out. Besides, they were a family, a blended, odd conglomerate of widely different individuals, yes, but a family nonetheless. And for now, that was enough for them.
A/N Yes, I know this was just a short, extremely brief epilogue. It doesn't go into a whole lot of details, because I'm thinking about a sequal (ideas and suggestions about what ppl would like to see would be welcome). Anyway, thanks everyone for taking this ride with me. I tell you, I've had a lot of fun with it. Keep your eyes open, and hopefully I'll have the next installment in the works soon. Thanks, Kikide!
