A/N Hi, everyone! Thank you to everyone who has reviewed.

As I meditate I hear a faint call " Master splinter!"

Then I hear it clearly " Master Splinter!" The voice is hoarse, but there is no mistaking the voice of one of my son's voices.

" Leonardo" I Call in the spiritual plane.

I concentrat and see my son through the mist.

" Leonardo" I whisper as I hug my son, " where are you?"

Leo POV

" Father" I whisper in shock. I see his transparent form, and I can tell he looks tired " are you safe?"

" Yes my son, are-"

" Mikey, Donnie, Raph, April, and Casey?" I ask making sure my family is safe.

" They are safe as well my son" Master Splinter assures me and I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding.

" Leonardo, are you alright" Master Splinter asks full of concern. I can see his eyes looking me over and judging my injuries.

"I-I've been better" I reply thinking of my injuries, but not wanting to worry Master Splinter. I see his eyes narrow in concern.

" Where are you" Master Splinter asks me. That's a good question.

" I don't know" I whisper looking at the floor wishing I could be more help.

" Do you have any clues, anything at all?" Master Splinter inquires trying to get some information as to where I am.

" No, I'm in a cell. Shredder has me. I don't know where his new lair is" I say realizing that I may have reached Master Splinter, but I can't tell him where I am. How will they find me? Maybe it will be a good thing because then they won't risk their life.

" Where are you in Shredder's Lair" Master Splinter asks.

" I've been where his throne is, along with Fish Face's above ground pool. From there there is a metal door that leads down a flight of stairs. Then I take a right, left, left, right, left and then there is the cell" I answer to the best of my ability. If they can find where the Shredder is maybe they can find me.

" You have done well my son, we will find you" Master Splinter promise me. For the first time in weeks I feel safe, Master Splinter has never let me down.

" Thank you Master Splinter. Be careful, I think the shredder expects Mikey, Donnie, and Raph to come" I warn my father. I will never forgive myself if any of my brothers get hurt because of me.

" My son, we will get you back safely very soon" Master Splinter promises me. I hope he will, or I will never see him again.

"Leonardo" Master Splinter asks softly, is there something wrong?

"Yes father?" I ask with worry.

"Why did you leave" Master Splinter asks looking directly at me making me want to look away, but I don't.

"Sensei, I'm so sorry. I should have come to you, but they would have known and told the Shredder where the lair is. I couldn't risk Shredder finding any of you" I say ashamed that I left without telling my family.

"Who, my son" Master Splinter asks as his ear twitches.

"The Dream beavers, they came to me in a dream. They told me if I didn't leave and meet them they would tell the Shredder where the lair is" I explain hoping Master Splinter isn't mad at me. I know Raph will be. I know Mikey will forgive me so will Donie, but he'll give me a lecture first.

I start to feel my connection falter and I hope this isn't the last time I see my father. There is still so much I need to say.

"Master Splinter, I don't know how much longer I can hold this" I whispered with fear, I don't want to let go.

" I see. My son I am proud of you, I love you as well as your brothers" Master Splinter says softly.

" I know, tell them-" I start to say to Master Splinter, but his transparent form disappears and I see the same wall I have been staring at for what seems like forever.

" Tell them I love them. I love you too Master Splinter" I whisper to no one.

Raphs POV

The sun will come up soon, but I don't want to stop searching. Don and I saw Rocksteady hours ago and were trailing him, but we lost him and we have been searching ever since. How could we lose him!

" Raph, we have to head back. It will take us at least an hour to get back to the lair through the sewers" Donnie hesitantly tells me.

I groan " Yeah, whatever." I say stopping, but not yet heading toward the sewers. Where could he be? We have searched for weeks, tailing Shredder's goons, questioning purple dragons, and looking for trouble. We find trouble without even looking for it, so looking for trouble just gets chaotic.

" Raph" Don says hesitantly.

" What do you want, shell for brains" I reply with more annoyance than anger.

" Are we going to find Leo?" Donnie asks quietly causing me to stand up straight.

Are we going to find Leo? I don't know, but we won't stop searching. I hope we find him alive, but every day I know Don and I are less sure. We have never been this unsure. I hate this, I can't do anything! I can't find Leo, I don't know where he is or if he is even alive. And I don't know how to keep my brothers together. Mikey's pranking us more and putting on fake smiles while Donnie is trying to figure out how to find Leo. I don't know what to do to help my brothers.

" It's been a long day Don" I say avoiding the question." We'll regroup with Mikey, Casey, and April and see if they have anything."

" Ok" Donnie says letting it drop. We head back in silence, but I can almost hear Donnie worry.

TMNT TMNT TMNT

We arrived back at the lair to see Mikey playing a game with April and Casey. I feel better seeing my little brother safe and with a small but genuine smile.

" Hey, shell for brains, we're back" I yell at Mikey.

" Awww" Mikey said as he lost the game " Raph" he whines.

I head into the dojo where Master Splinter will be waiting for me. I stop at the door for a moment not wanting to admit that I have nothing and we are non closer to finding Leo.

" My son, come I have discovered some things" Master Splinter says to me causing my stomach to turn. I don't know if the news is good or bad.

" What do you mean" I said angrily clenching my fists preparing for the worst.

" Raphael, calm yourself. It is not all bad news. Why don't you go get everyone" Master Splinter says opening his eyes to look at me and I let out a small breath.

Not all bad, so there is good news. Leo! He's okay right? But then what is the bad news?

I stormed out to grab Mikey and Donnie who were heading over, but not quickly enough.

" Raph, Raph, were going were going" Donnie said with annoyance when I grabbed their arms and half dragged them into the dojo with April and Casey on their heals.

" My sons, April, Casey. Is there anything you have discovered?" Master Splinter greets us.

" We tailed Tiger Claw for a while" Donnie said and laughed nervously, " We lost him though"

" We ran into some purple dragons and questioned them, but we didn't find anything" April said.

" Master Splinter, you said you have some news?" I asked getting impatient.

" Yes, I made contact with Leonardo while meditating" Master Splinter, I gasped getting up.

" Where is he!" I shout.

" Calm down Raphael. To answer your question, I am not certain. He is in the Shredder's new lair" Master Splinter tells us.

" What!" My brothers, April, and Casey shout together.

So, he went on another solo mission to stop the Shredder alone! That idiot! How could he be so stupid, it would take all of us to do that! And now, he's been captured.

" Before I continue I had limited time, would you tell me about these Dream Beavers" Master Splinter asked.

" Uhh, Master Splinter why do you want to know about them" I ask, " Can't you just tell us what Leo said so we can get him back!" I say angrily while Splinter looks calmly at me.

" I will, but I need to know what these Dream Beavers are" Master Splinter says.

"Well, we met them at the farmhouse-" I glare at Donnie as he tells Master Splinter every detail. It's the Dream Beavers fault?

" Raphael, pay attention" Master Splinter says drawing me back to the present " Leonardo said that the Dream Beavers went to him in a dream and told him to leave or else they would tell Shredder where the lair is"

" What!" I say getting to my feet. " those-"

" language!" Master Splinter says before I manage to swear. If I ever find those beavers they will regret it!

" So, the Dream Beavers came back to threaten Leo, why" Donnie asks thoughtfully.

" I do not know, but Leonardo said he was in the Shredder's Lair" Master Splinter says. If only we knew where that is.

" But what happened to the Dream Beavers?" Mikey asks confused.

" They might have escaped from the Shredder since none of us have had weird dreams" Donnie says providing Mikey with a possible answer.

" The Shredder had the Dream Beavers? I thought they were gone." April says.

" Apparently not" I reply through my teeth.

" My sons, tomorrow you must find the Shredder's lair, and once you do you will attack and get Leonardo out" Splinter begins telling us the plan.

" So, Michelangelo please tell me the plan" Master Splinter asks Mikey and for the first time Mikey repeats the plan flawlessly and I look at my little brother in shock.
