Concealed
Chpt. 3
His hands softly pushed against the paper sliding doors, his right ear completely shoved against it trying to hear what his father was telling his sister Karai. Nervously he chewed on his lip as he heard his father begin telling his sister that he was proud of her for finally being eligible to join the foot clan and his eyes shut softly as he told her of her first assignment, to eliminate a man foolish enough to cross their proud clan. His heart had never beat this fast before, if his sister failed, he could not bear it.
A strong hand then effortlessly knocked him away from the door slamming the poor four year old hard into the floor making him softly groan in pain. His eyes travelled up to meet the smirking eyes of Hun.
"Little boys should learn their place and not be where only grown ups belong," he mocked making the child glare at him,"Don't think that because your the master's son means anything for your well being and most defiantly in the case of that sister of yours, if you ask me I don't think she'll survive the night."
The boy glared at him as he walked into the room, his sister walking out and looking to the boy on the floor in a concerned fashion.
"Leonardo-chan, what are you doing up?" softly she picked the boy up and headed to their bedroom.
She sat him on the bed stroking his hair and pulling the blankets on him,"I will be fine, little brother, I will be fine."
"Are you sure?" he asked softly looking into her smiling face.
"Of course I will, you couldn't survive without me," she said softly kissing him on the forehead as she got up and walked to the door.
"Promise?" he whispered snuggling against the blanket.
"I promise," she whispered softly switching the light off as she walked out the door.
...
Blood poured out of his wounded shoulder, his sister held the blade. Swiftly he threw the blade out of him, ignoring the pain as their blades clashed together both their eyes locked no emotions showing from them. He round kicked her knocking her to the ground his foot locking with her throat.
"Finish her now Leonardo," his master snapped from behind him,"Hurry before she reclaims the upper hand!"
Their eyes met and the panic rushed though her eyes , she begged him not to do it, not to obey an order. Without thinking twice, he sliced through her neck flinging her head across the room.
...
Leonardo's eyes snapped open his body flinging forward knocking the silk red blanket off him, sweat rolling down his face. The phone began ringing beside him, pulling himself together he answered it.
"Hello?" he asked softly yawning.
"Still in bed at this hour, little brother?" his sister questioned from the other end of the phone making him roll his eyes,"You have school today! You should have been up twenty minutes ago!"
He rolled his eyes softly he hated it when his sister teased him like that,"What is it Karai?"
"Have you forgotten already?" she said softly,"Today is the day! You are no longer a lone foot soldier, today you become an elite! It is the day you have been training for your entire life and you forget! So unlike you Leonardo..."
Leonardo sighed under his breath he couldn't believe he forgot,"Are you going to be at the ceremony tomorrow night?"
"It's my job to be there little brother," he could almost see her broadened grin and it made him sigh she treated him like a child,"I must go though, some insolent soldier just failed such a simple mission!"
As the phone line went blank, he couldn't help but smile, his sister was always there to tell him his dreams weren't real, even when she wasn't there.
...
"Wow, you really know how to pick your enemies, don't you Raph?" Don asked in utter amazement looking at the computer screen.
"He's smart, gets A's in every class, knows over 6 languages and is very cultural and well defined by the looks of him," Don smirked,"Your polar opposites, your an idiot, barely know English and aren't in the least cultural and well defined. And not to mention he's got money we could never dream of. Tell me Raph are you just hiting on him to get his money?"
Raph smacked him on the back of the head at that,"I'm collecting data! Not reenacting sleeping with the enemy. What can I use against him? What are his deepest darkest secrets? His weaknesses? What can I use against him?" his voice steadily increasing with each line.
Don didn't know what to say at that he would be lying if he said anything his brother wanted him to say,"Raph, you can't use anything against him, he's perfect!"
Raph snarled under his breath pushing his brother out of the way looking at the screen himself. On the page it showed various pictures of the boy, not one of them was he smiling, but still perfection shined in each image. He was regional Kendo and martial arts champion for the last three years. It was like saying in bold letters that he was more cultural then most people who saw any of the various pictures of him. Raph snarled he had nothing to use against him.
"He is pretty," Don mocked laughing slightly,"Maybe you were only mad at him because he rejected you, pretty, smart, rich...even you can't say that's not perfect!"
Raph wouldn't admit he was right or wrong on that one,"I'm not trying to screw him! I'm trying to kill him! Is that so hard to understand!"
"Who's Raph trying to screw now?" Mike laughed peaking his head into the room to see what all the noise was.
"You guys are dimwits!" Raph barked stomping out of the room, leaving his snickering younger brothers in the room. He couldn't believe he was related to them!
...
Leonardo softly tapped his pen against his desk only slightly listening to his teacher who was teaching history of his home country. He never cared much for American history, it always seemed to contradict everything Americans stood for. He sighed softly staring out the window, shutting his eyes softly. Today he would be an elite, it was finally the day he could shove it in Hun's face that he out ranked him. He smiled softly to the thought. His eyes caught something outside leaning against a tree smirking at him, that made him blink twice, it couldn't be, it must just be him.
"Leonardo!" his head snapped toward the teacher who was glaring at him,"For an A plus student, sometimes I wonder when you stare off like your doing now!"
The class looked at him making him simply he averted his eyes and he said softly,"May I use the restroom?"
...
His mind was whirling as he stepped out of the building, he wasn't that crazy that he saw things. He stepped onto the elegant foot ball field where as expected no one was there. It wasn't exactly a public school where all the PE classes were on the foot ball fields, this was one of the most prestige schools in New York, it put most colleges to shame with its size. It was three stories high and had many smaller buildings surrounding it for the many extra curricular classes, no expenses were left out for the school his father had funded himself.
Just as he also expected the thing he wanted to convince himself was a figment of his imagination was leaning against one of the bleachers nonchalantly smirking at him. He rolled his eyes to the green turtle in the trench coat and hat.
"You know the Internet can tell you allot," he said softly,"Your history, your family, your address, your school, your schedule. You just have to look in the right places, but still I didn't get any answers I wanted, so I thought I would try the first hand source."
Leonardo just rolled his eyes pushing his hair behind his ear,"You truly are a foolish baboon to think that you could get anything out of me."
Raph snarled pulling out his sais, but Leonardo kicked them out of his hand before Raph could even begin what he had came there to do,"I don't have time for this right now, if you want a rematch do as the invitation says, meet with my master one week as it says and I promise I will be there when you stubbornly decline his offer."
Raph glared at him stepping in front of him as he began to leave,"I don't give a shit about your master, I want nothing more then to spill your brains across the pavement."
"The pleasure will be yours if you miraculously become better then me within the week."
With that said Leonardo began to walk off knocking Raph out of his way and onto the ground. Raph wouldn't have any of that though, he came here for answers and to prove he was better then him. Swiftly he shot from the ground sai in hand and jumped at the warrior with his back turned to him. Without flinching Leonardo side stepped slightly over grabbing Raph by the arm, twisting it behind his back.
"You think a baboon like you could possibly be able to attack me from behind?" he hissed into his ear making a moan of pain escape his lips as the boy squeezed tighter onto the forearm making a sickening crunching noise fill the air,"Do not cross me monkey boy, you will regret it."
With that he released Raph's arm, letting him crumple to the ground like disguarded paper gasping holding onto his injured arm. Then Leonardo smirked shaking his head at the warrior before him.
"Remember, one week, you should train if you plan on letting my master down," with that the boy turned his back on Raph, who couldn't believe he had lost twice in a row to some pampered rich kid.
...
A/N: before I continue, I want to ask you how do you want Raph and Leo's relationship to be later on. Do you want it to be like a friend/rival relationship like Karia and Leo had in the 2003 series? Or do you guys want more of a yaoi thing to happen later on? Or do you want them to just stay hated enemies? Because I'm cool either way and I've made all the situations work out in my mind, but I want to know what you the reader wants. So just leave a review and tell me what you would like more. I'm sorry for new readers but I have already made my descion in the matter.
