Hi there sorry its been a while I've had a lot of issues at the moment regarding family and funerals so i apologise for the delay however this and my Pretty Little Liars series have been updated now thanks for waiting. Enjoy:)

"Leo i'm afraid it isn't great news, more so that you'd want to not hear if i'm honest." Donny shook his head he never enjoyed giving bad news, it made him seem like the bad guy though it wasn't down to him what happened in peoples bodies and minds.

"I'm sure it isn't that bad Don, I know you did your best anyway whatever the outcome may be." Leo smiled but it wasn't his usual bubbly self it was more reserved... almost like he was scared.

Don took a heavy breath...
"The cut got infected before it was sealed... by me. So at this moment in time a deadly virus is running through your blood and veins... likely travelling towards your heart.. which I guess the point of it is to kill you. I can prevent it as such but its going to be hard, stressful and rather painful..." Don checked his notes he had prepared a bullet point list for what to tell his brother. Leo slumped back silently processing it all.
"Oh Don surely that isn't all... there gotta be sommit else right? Hes just being all Doctorish Leo dun worry. It's probably not even that bad right?" Raph tired to be happier than his two brothers and not think of how bad it sounded. Mikey's head poked from the corner of the door. He had overheard everything and whilst trying to be adult he couldn't help but run and cling to Leos arm as if the last time.

"Raph I wish it was better news honestly I do. But to put it bluntly its Leo's choice. Live or die. Either will be painful and difficult and both will be one hell of a fight. But if you want to try then by all means do so, I would want you to Leo as i'm sure do we all. But it isn't my call. I'm so sorry." Donny wiped away his tears, the thought that Leo had his life in his own hands was a worry. It was such a huge choice and knowing how Leo can sometimes be he would rather not have others help him or watch him suffer.
Silence fell amongst them all while they waited for Leo to speak. Assuming the worst was about to come Leo opened his mouth.

"Well if both will be a struggle and both will be a fight.. we are trained to fight right? We're ninjas and I guess that answers it. Whats the chance of surviving?" Leo sat up slightly hoping this would be better news than before.
Don was slightly taken back at how well Leo had taken that news, and that he was even interested in fighting back
"As it stands about 70% survival rate. But if we wait around that drops to less than 50% overnight. Its serious stuff, but I've got a cupboard full of the medicine you'd need" Don checked his notes again and went to show them all the little bottle of blue fluid to help Leo.

"Okay then we start tonight. I choose fight, but if my body decides otherwise know this. I don't blame you Don, i'm grateful you got me this far. Without you i'd be 6ft under already in my own coffin." Leo shook Donny's arm for confidence. He knew Don would have blamed himself all the time for either outcome.

"I know, but I wish I had of seen this sooner. I could of helped you when asleep you'd of felt nothing. Peaceful fighting how you like it." Donny smiled at Leo he knew that his brother meant well but how could he not blame himself. That was what he did best.

"Look if Leo said fight then we all fight. None of this worrying and hurtin stuff. Positive thoughts and I might even stop the fearless leader jokes for a few days!" Raph started to laugh along with them all. Laughter was long forgotten for the four of them and honestly it sounded nice, echoing through the metal walls of Donny's lab. Don nodded his head which suggested to Leo that treatment was going to begin, so getting myself comfy he prepared himself.

As Donny grabbed a new needle, drip and liquid from his cupboard Mikey held on to Leo's sweaty palms before they both looked away as Donny inserted the needle. Mikey was usually the baby of the group but this time no , he would be by Leo's side regardless of how much he hated suffering and pain. Leo's face flinched and his skin became pale as the liquid began to enter. Soon he was sat upright hurling his stomach up into the plastic bowl Don left on his bed.

Raph shot straight to Leos side and began to hold him for support and rub his shell. This was just the beginning of seeing Leo at his weakest and most vulnerable stage. It was awful and this was only hour one. They had a long way to go before it seemed even slightly worth all the drugs, pain and sickness for their brother.

"It's alright, i'm alright." Leo rubbed his lips.
"But deciding to fight may of been my weakness here. This is going to be tough." Leo slumped himself back as Donny placed a damp cloth on his forehead.

"If I could take it away from you in a heartbeat I would bro you know that. Of us all you don't deserve this. But you have the most fightin spirit and most courage out of all of us bro... though i hate to admit." Raph patted the cloth and Mikey sat there holding Leo's hand.
The room became what would be the darkest, coldest and hated room they had. What was once filled with Donny inventing and the others watching was now filled with Leo fighting a battle he could well loose.
The room had lost all meaning of family but gained a new one of pain... and that was just the start.

Hope you all liked it, i will see you in the next chapter! Thank you for understanding and still supporting:)
