Mikey and Katrina were quietly sitting on the sofa. A few moments later, Raph rushed by with Suzuki going after him.

"What was that about?" Mikey asked with curiosity.

"We'll find out soon enough," Katrina replied.

Just then, Sandra and Wanda entered the room followed by Joe and Chuck. The four of them sat down on the floor.

Yaki Murakawa was adding up the receipts while her husband Kisho was doing the cleanup. Just then, Kisho finished the cleanup, walked over to Yaki, and the two of them wrapped their arms around each other and kissed on the lips.

"Almost done yet?" Kisho asked as he released his wife.

"Just about," Yaki replied with a smile.

"How would you like to take a trip to our New York restaurant?"

"I think Mika would be pleased to see us."

A few moments later, Yaki finished adding up the receipts. She put the items away in a drawer and then she and Kisho made their way towards the door.

Once they made it outside, two dark figures knocked Yaki and Kisho to the ground. Then they were tied up, blindfolded, and forced to walk to an unknown destination.

Raph was pounding on the punching bag in frustration. Suzuki was doing katas nearby while waiting for Raph to talk.

"How could Karai injure Leo like that?" Raph ranted angrily.

"I wish I knew since it happened after Leo and I got separated," Suzuki admitted.

"Do you think Leo will survive?" Raph asked, his voice breaking.

"Donny and Chloe are doing what they can to save him," Suzuki replied.

Just then, Raph stepped away from the punching bag, sat down, and buried his face in his arms and knees. Suzuki sat next to him and gently rubbed his shell.

"Sorry I fell apart like that," Raph apologized a few minutes later.

"I have told a few of my students that you should never be ashamed of your emotions," Suzuki said.

"Splinter used to say the same."

"Maybe you could see what you could do to help Leo."

"I'll see if Donny will let me stay with him and see if that'll help," Raph said.

"Good thinking," Suzuki agreed.


Location: Lab at Calls' House

Leo was lying on a cot unconscious while Donny and Chloe were hooking him up to the IV pole. Mika was watching the security cameras on the computer.

"You all right?" Donny asked with concern, noticing that Chloe looked like she was about to have a breakdown which was rare for her.

"Leo isn't doing so great," Chloe said, her voice breaking. "It'll take a miracle for him to pull through. Karai did a lot of damage to Leo internally."

Chloe and Donny wrapped their arms around each other and then there was a knock on the door. Mika offered to take care of it and came back with Raph a couple minutes later.

"Raph's here to help with Leo," Mika explained. Donny rushed over to Raph and threw his arms around his brother who wrapped his arms around Donny.

"Thank you," Donny said in relief.

"No problem but you're squeezing me a bit hard," Raph said and then the two of them released each other.

"Sorry about that," Donny apologized.

"I'm hoping that if I stay with Leo it will help him wake up," Raph explained.

"Like physical contact?" Chloe inquired. "If that's the case, it might work."

"Right," Raph agreed.

"I'll let you take care of that while I break the news to Mikey and the others," Donny offered.

Raph and Chloe nodded in agreement. Then Donny headed out of the lab.

"How is Raph doing?" Mikey asked, rushing over to Donny as he entered the room.

"I think we need to sit down for this," Donny replied, walking his brother over to the sofa where the two of them sat down.

Joe and Chuck excused themselves to go call their wives. Katrina and Sandra excused themselves to go call their husbands.

"I'd better go see how Suzuki is doing," Wanda declared and then left the room.

"Raph is currently with Leo," Donny said.

"How bad is Leo's condition?" Mikey asked with caution.

"He's bleeding internally but Raph is with him and hoping that physical contact will help heal Leo.'

"So Leo's still alive?"

"He is but he's not out of danger yet," Donny confirmed.

"So there's a chance he might not pull through?" Mikey asked, his voice breaking.

Just then, Suzuki and Wanda rushed into the room. Both of them had panicked looks on their faces.

"Mika just texted me," Suzuki said.

"We need to get to the lab right away," Wanda instructed and then she, Suzuki, Mikey, and Donny rushed out of the living room.
