Ch 17 Father Versus Son

Karai drove through the streets of New York as fast as she could. "Uh Karai don't you think we should slow down a bit?" Michelangelo asked as Karai took another sharp turn, causing the youngest turtles' head to hit the side of the Shell Raiser.

"The faster we drive the sooner we can help Yoshi," Karai said, taking yet another sharp turn. Everyone groaned as their heads once again hit the side of the Shell Raiser hard.

"Yeah but some of us on recovering from concussions," Donatello grumbled, rubbing his head. "Plus we won't do anyone any good if we wreak on the way there." Karai said nothing. She just continued to speed through the streets of New York. Donatello was about to protest some more but just then he was roughly jerked forward when the Shell Raiser stopped.

"We're here," Karai said, shutting off the Shell Raiser and getting out. The rest of the group got out, weapons drawn.

"I called April and Casey," Donatello whispered as they walked. "They should be..." But he was interrupted by April and Casey suddenly emerging. "Right on cue," Donatello muttered.

"Hey guys," April said with a smile and a wave.

"Sup everyone?" Casey said, pulling up his hockey masked and smiling a gap toothed smile at everyone.

"Hey," the group said with waves.

"So like what's the plan?" Casey asked, pulling down his mask again. "And where's Raph?" Casey looked around for his red masked friend when he said this part.

"At home," was Donatello's response. "He's to injured to fight." Casey nodded in understanding.

"So Donnie how are we going about this?" April asked, looking at the purple masked turtle.

"Uh maybe we should let Karai be in charge of this one," Donatello said, looking at Karai. "After all she has more experience in this. Plus who knows the Shredder better than his daughter?"

"But D you were like really good the last time," Michelangelo protested. "Plus you're like super smart. You should be in charge."

"Mikey's right Donnie," Karai piped up when Donatello opened his mouth to protest. "You should be the leader Donnie. I'll help only if I have to. Trust me Donnie you've got this."

"Thanks guys," Donatello said with a smile. "Alright here's the plan: Mikey you and April go around the side of the building. Casey you go around back. Karai you're with me. We'll go in front. Make sure you keep your T-coms on."

"Right," the group said as they dispersed all of them hoping they wouldn't be too late to stop something terrible from happening.

Yoshi looked up at his oldest son with wide brown eyes as Leonardo raised his katana to kill him. Yoshi reluctantly kicked Leonardo away from him and got to his feet. "My son please do not do this," Yoshi pleaded, his hands extended.

"You think you can treat me any way you want and get away with it?" Leonardo snarled, glaring at Yoshi. "Well guess what you can't!"

"Leonardo please," Yoshi began, trying to get his oldest so to listen to him. "I know that I have been to harsh on you recently and I am so sorry for that. The last thing in the world I want is for you to hate me."

"Its too late for that," came Leonardo's low, dark and hate filled voice. "Far too late. You can take your fake apologies and shove them up your ass!"

"They are not fake," Yoshi declared. "I mean every word of what I just said. You are my son and I love you. We are family and we should not fight against each other like this."

"Well too damn bad," Leonardo growled. "I've been a victim of your cruelty for far too long!" With that Leonardo let out a cry of fury and charged towards Yoshi, katana extended. Yoshi held out his walking stick and blocked Leonardo's blow. As much as he hated it Yoshi realized that he was going to have to fight Leonardo otherwise his oldest son would kill him. Yoshi pushed Leonardo away, causing him to stumble. Yoshi quickly reacted and kicked the black masked turtle in the chest. Yoshi kicked just hard enough to make Leonardo lose his balance and fall to the ground, dropping his katanas in the process. Leonardo let out a furious snarl and got to his feet and charged towards Yoshi, tackling the brown coated rat to the ground. Yoshi's walking stick went skidding across the ground as Yoshi hit the ground hard. "I'll teach you a lesson you won't soon forget rat!" Leonardo shouted, his brown eyes filled with rage. Yoshi gasped as he looked into his son's eyes. Never in his life did he think he would ever see one of his children look at him with such hate. And this frightened Yoshi. But he knew he had to do what he must in order to survive. So Yoshi grabbed Leonardo by his shoulders and shoved him off of him. Yoshi quickly got to his feet only to be met with the fist of Leonardo. This hit caught Yoshi off guard and he fell to the ground. Leonardo quickly kicked Yoshi hard in his face then delivered another hard kick to Yoshi's stomach and chest, winding the wise old rat. Leonardo grabbed his katanas off the ground and charged towards Yoshi, who was struggling to get up. Leonardo raised his katanas and sliced down Yoshi's back. But the thickness of Yoshi's kimono prevented to much damage from being done and only the tips of the katanas made contact with Yoshi's body. Yoshi cried out in pain and swiftly punched Leonardo hard in his face, sending him crashing to the ground. Yoshi's brown eyes went wide as he realized what he had done.

"Leonardo," Yoshi whispered, limping over to his oldest. "My son. I am sorry." But this moment didn't last long and Leonardo got to his feet with a snarl.

"You'll pay for that!" Leonardo shouted. Yoshi took a step back and a lighting bolt of pain went through him. Reaching back Yoshi felt wetness on his back. When he looked at his hand sure enough it was smeared with blood. But Yoshi didn't let that deter him and he fought through the pain as he did what he had to do. As much as he hated it Yoshi attacked Leonardo, using an ancient Japanese technique. He focused all his energy into his fingers and flung Leonardo backwards and into Dog-Pound and Tiger Claw, who were watching from the side. The trio went flying backwards, hitting the stone wall behind them. But luckily Tiger Claw and Dog-Pound took most of the hit and they were knocked out. Leonardo also hit hard. But the hardness of his shell prevented to much damage from being done. But the black masked turtle was even more enraged than before. Panting heavily Leonardo got to his feet and wiped the blood away from his mouth.

"Do it Leonardo," Shredder commanded from the side. "Put an end to this! Now!"

"Yes Master," Leonardo said, his voice cold and dark as he picked up his katanas and let out a loud cry. The oldest turtle flipped high in the air and grabbed the beam that was in the ceiling. Swinging hard and fast Leonardo sailed through the air and kicked Yoshi with both feet, sending his father crashing to the ground. Leonardo wasted no time and kicked Yoshi hard in his face then knelt down on Yoshi's chest, making it very difficult for the brown coated rat to breathe. "I've grown tired of this rat," Leonardo growled, his face inches from Yoshi's. "Its time to end this once and for all!" With that Leonardo raised his katanas to kill Yoshi. But he was interrupted by a loud cry.

"No!" the voice shouted. "Don't do it!" Leonardo turned and was shocked at who he saw there.

"What the Hell do you think you're doing?" Leonardo hissed.
