Chapter 19 Raphael confesses his love to Mona Lisa

With all four turtles working together they were able to create something that would get rid of Mona's monstrous form. As for turning her human that part was unsure of. "Well after a really long night the four of us were able to come up with this dose of retro mutagen thanks to the notes from Barney Stockman's note book and my intelligences" stated Donatello. "Do you think it will work?" Raphael asked. "Only one way to find out" answered Donatello as he gave Mona a shot of the retro mutagen into her arm. All of a sudden Mona's monster form started disappearing and she was turning into her lizard form. "Mona is still breathing and pulse is normal but I have no idea how it will take for her to wake up" said Donatello. "I'll stay by her side until she wakes up" Raphael offered as he pulled up a chair and sat by Mona's bed side. The other turtles left the room. For many hours Raphael just sat there and never left Mona's side because he couldn't bear the thought of leaving her alone. Then Raphael held Mona's hand and said the following words, "Mona I'm so sorry for everything that has happened to you. I wish I would have known sooner that those two robots weren't your aunt and uncle that way maybe this whole thing could have been avoided. You've been through so much because of our enemies but my friends who I'm proud to call my brothers and fellow ninjas and I always came to rescue you. I'm always the first one to jump in because I really care about you. In fact ever since we first met I haven't been able to get you out of my mind. I guess what I'm trying to say is I love you Mona Lisa. I've always loved you and I always will. But I don't know if you could ever love somebody like me who is a giant talking mutant turtle. I always believed once you were human again you would find some random guy and I would never see you again."

"Raphael you really love me?" Mona asked when she looked at Raphael with tears in her eyes and a smile on her face. "Mona you're awake!" exclaimed Raphael as he hugged Mona. "As I was coming in consciousness I heard your voice and everything you said. I don't want to be with some random guy. I love you Raphael so much for a long time. I've missed you while I was gone for a long time. You're the only I want to be with no matter if we're both mutants or I was human" Mona stated as she hugged Raphael with dear life. "Oh Mona I'm happy to hear you say that. We have to let the others know that you're ok" said Raphael. "We already know because we heard the whole thing when we were coming to check on the both of you" said Master Splinter as he and the other turtles came into the room. "Well what are you waiting for kiss already!" Michelangelo exclaimed. Mona laughed at what Michelangelo said as she and Raphael started kissing with so much romance and passion. "Let's leave the happy couple alone for a bit" ordered Splinter as everyone left the room. "So Mona since we told each other our true feelings will you be my girl?" Raphael asked. "Of course I will" answered Mona as she stroked Raphael's cheek with her hand before they started kissing again.
