A/N: I apologize profusely for not updating sooner…fourth quarter has been extremely busy for me. Anyway, some of you (well, actually, probably all of you) won't like this, but this is the last chapter of DWF. It was planned to be that way, and it shall stay that way. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy the very last chapter of Divided We Fall.

Leo sighed and huddled farther into the corner of the back of the Battle Shell, wrapping his arms around himself as the truck bounced over the rough country terrain. His head whacked against the wall as they went over a particularly large bump.

"Casey, watch it, will you?" Leo requested, rubbing his head.

"Oh, sorry Leo…" Casey said distractedly, keeping his eyes on the road. April sat in the passenger seat next to him, arms crossed, staring out the window.

Leo rolled his eyes and settled back into his seat. He appreciated having the farmhouse as a place to retreat, but he wished it wasn't so darn far away from the city.

"Casey! You're a worse driver than Donnie!" Mikey grumbled after being thrown out of his seat for the third time, and earning an evil glare from his brother.

"Sorry guys!" Casey called into the back of the van. "It'll be smoother once we get on the highway."

Leo bit his lip and leaned more into his seat to avoid being thrown out of it like Mikey. He wondered if his brothers knew he noticed how they all stayed on the other side of the van from him.

My brothers think I'm a psycho…Leo mused to himself. Well, who could blame them anyway. He had killed a man right in front of them as if it were nothing. Leo smiled faintly at the thought of himself lying on a couch and talking to a psychiatrist.

Sighing again, he looked away from his brothers and didn't look at them again until they pulled into the garage.

"So, what do we do now?" Mikey wondered, sitting at the kitchen table with April.

"I guess that's up to Leo." Don said, coming into the kitchen.

"Why's it always up to him?" Raph asked. "He hasn't come out of his room since we came home yesterday."

"Raph, he's been through a lot-" April started.

"What, and we haven't?" Raph interrupted.

"That's not what I'm saying, Raph-"

"Sure sounds like it."

April stood up. "Well, it looks like I'm not to be able to have a conversation with you today. If it's okay with you, I'm going to go see how Casey's doing."

"Why are you asking if it's okay with me?" Raph sneered. "Why don't you go ask Leo."

April's mouth opened in surprise. Giving Raph a hurt look, she turned on her heel and left the room.

"That was uncalled for, Raph…" Mikey mumbled.

"Yeah, well, ever since Master Splinter died, she's been acting like Leo's the only person in this family."

"That's not true, and you know it." Don interjected. "You're looking for a reason to fight. Go take a walk, Raph."

Raph stood up, knocking over his chair in the process. He opened his mouth to say something, but then shook his head and left the room.

Mikey and Don winced as they heard the front door slam hard.

"Nice day." Mikey said sarcastically.

"Eh, he's okay." Don said. "He just needs to cool off…then he'll be back to normal."

"Since when is anything normal these days…" Mikey muttered as Don left the room.

Leo sat at Don's computer, staring at the glowing screen, not even blinking.

"Uh…Leo, what are you doing?" Don asked, approaching him. Leo jumped as if he had just been woken up from a trance.

"Oh…I was just reading the news online." He said. He minimized the screen and raised his arms over his head, stretching. "I think I'm gonna go to bed." Leo left the room feeling slightly guilty. He didn't like lying to his brothers, but if he told Don what he was about to do, he wouldn't be leaving the lair for a long time.

"Leo?" Leo stopped in his tracks as Don called him back. He turned slowly. "Yeah?"

Don looked slightly upset. "Be careful."

Leo blinked. How did he know- the computer screen. Don had clicked on the minimized screen to see what Leo had been looking at. Leo sighed. "I will." He turned and went into his room.

Don went back to the computer, a clenching feeling in his stomach. Displayed on the screen Leo had been looking at was all the dates, times and places of Oroku Saki's next few speeches. Making up his mind, Don got up from the computer and went to find Mikey and Raph.

In his room, Leo made a few practice swings with his katana. He had gotten used to fighting one handed, and could even beat his brothers in sparring again.

Leo sat on his bed, looking at his feet. Finally he assumed the lotus position and began to meditate to pass the time until he was sure his brothers were asleep.

Hours later, Leo opened his eyes. He had fallen asleep while meditating. Smiling faintly, he got off his bed and opened the door a crack. The lair was completely silent. Don's computer wasn't even on.

Retrieving his katana and sliding it onto his back, Leo slipped out of the lair and into the darkness of the city.

If Leo had not been so preoccupied with the task at hand, he would have noticed three figures following him in the shadows.

Leo stood in front of a large fancy hotel, trying to figure out a way in. He couldn't just walk in the front door and request a room, for obvious reasons.

He circled the building, and found himself in a small, secluded area behind the hotel, complete with a lighted pool. Taking a step back to survey the building, Leo realized that quite a few windows had balconies that the hotel guests could go out and walk on if they wished. Leo grinned to himself. Perfect.

Leo easily made it up to the second floor, using the balconies. He found a darkened window and hoped to god the room was empty. He slid his hands under the frame of the window and slid it up, slipping inside the room. His eyes adjusted to the darkness in the room fairly quickly, and he was relieved to find the room was empty.

He slipped out into the bright hallway and frowned. Bright was never good for a ninja. He'd have to move fast. Sticking to the few shadows that were there, Leo silently made his way to the front desk.

A very bored looking heavy set woman sat behind the desk, reading a book. Leo's eyes slid over to the list posted on the wall behind her. That's what he needed. Leo located a shuriken in one of his belt pockets, and aimed it at a bowl of candy sitting on the desk, in front of the lady. He threw it with concentrated precision, and the throwing star rammed into the glass bowl, sending it flying off the desk and causing the woman to scream bloody murder.

Leo bit his lip as he waited for the right moment to move. The lady finally finished screaming, and bent to pick up the fallen candy and glass shards that decorated the floor.

Now! His mind shrieked in his ear. Quick as lightning, Leo dashed over to the desk, swiped the list, and was back under cover in the course of ten seconds.

An elevator dinged, and a man and a lady got out. Leo could see there was no one else in the elevator. He dashed through the open doors, just before they closed.

Leo took the chance in the elevator to look over the paper. It read: Oroku Saki, Rm. 506. He grinned wryly to himself. Good.

His head snapped up as the elevator lurched to a stop. The doors slid open, and Leo thanked his lucky stars nobody had been waiting to get on the elevator. Slipping out into the loudly decorated hallway, Leo silently made his way towards room 506.

Finally making his way to the plain brown door, he listened at the crack. He heard nothing. No voices, no sleep-talk, no one walking around, no one rolling around in a bed. The room was empty. Smiling at his luck, Leo pulled out another throwing star, and within seconds had gotten the door open.

"I want a limo, fully stocked for tomorrow."

"Yes Mr. Saki. Of course."

Oroku Saki strode down the hideous hotel hallway, followed by a personal servant and Karai.

As they reached the hotel room door, Saki turned sharply to face the assistant. "See that it is done." The assistant bowed, and hurried away.

Saki slid his key card into the slot and opened the door. He was met with cold steel under his chin. "Saki."

The man couldn't help a small smirk. "So. You have come for revenge at last, Leonardo." He felt Karai move to help him, but he stopped her with a raised hand. Karai fell back, looking nonplussed. "Surely," Saki continued, "Killing a man outright is not your way. Not the honorable way. Although what you did to Hun was most impressive…"

"I did what I had to." Leo said, hesitating a bit, but not taking his sword away from Saki's throat. "He was threatening my family. Like you have done."

"But you are not proud of killing Hun." Leo stiffened, and Saki knew he had hit a nerve with him. "You will cast even more dishonor on yourself if you kill me right here…" Leo said nothing, but Saki could see his hand start to tremble. "So why don't we make a deal. Take your blade away, and we will have an honorable fight. I promise Karai will not step in."

Leo considered. Very slowly, he lowered his blade. "Fool." Saki sneered, before whipping out his tanto and advancing on Leo.

Leo quickly got his katana back up again, and circled Saki. "I knew I couldn't trust you." Leo said quietly. Not wanting to hesitate any longer, Leo jumped his enemy, katana drawn. He attacked aggressively and quickly, but Saki blocked and dodged just as effectively. Leo cast out a kick, knocking Saki onto the ground. Before Leo could advance again though, Saki was on his feet and running towards the emergency stairs…which lead to the roof. Leo shook his head. Idiot. He began to follow, but a hand on his plastron held him back. Karai.

"Leonardo, please let him be!" she begged.

"No." Leo said firmly. "He is tearing my family apart, Karai. I can't just let him go. He killed Master Splinter."

Karai looked surprised at this news. "He…did? But…he said that he only wanted the turtles…" Taking advantage of Karai's hesitation, Leo pushed past her and ran after Saki, who now had quite a head start on him.

Running up the stairs three at a time, Leo burst out the emergency hatch that lead to the roof. It had started to rain again, and he could hardly see anything. Squinting, he caught sight of a shadow moving near the edge. Leo growled. Shredder.

Rain pelted Leonardo's body and slid down his shell. With a short growl, he pulled out his katana, and raised it to a battle position. "You will pay for what you have done." The wind carried his voice away, but the hate that graced his features could be seen from outer space.

With a battle cry, Leo ran at the Shredder, katana raised above his head. Saki looked surprised, and before he could move, Leo had rammed into him as hard as he could, sending him over the edge with a scream.

Breathing hard, Leo looked over the edge where the Shredder had plummeted to the sidewalk. "Leo." A soft voice hissed in his ear. Leo whipped around, ready for anything.

His brothers stood together, heads bowed against the rain. "We saw him go over." Don said. Mike and Raph nodded.

"I don't think we've seen the last of him…" Leo said, looking over the edge uncertainly.

"Probably not." Mikey said, clapping Leo on the shoulder. "But if we have, I say bon voyage!"

"Come on, let's go home." Raph said, throwing his arm around Leo's shoulder as well. "Mikey made cookies just before ya left."

Leo nodded. He let his brothers go before him. He glanced back at the place where Shredder had fallen. Whether they truly had not seen the last of him or not, Leo decided to put it out of his mind. He had family and cookies waiting for him at home.

He was, after all, a teenager.

The End

A/N: Aww, it's over…I have this weird feeling…like when you send your kid to school the first time or something. Ah well. I am a writer, and so, I have about six billion ideas buzzing around in my puny little brain. So read, review, and I hope you enjoyed the story.

P.s.: Mikey was listening to Kokomo. Kudos to those who got it right.
