Raph was getting impatient; he wanted to hear how he got with such a beautiful creature like Mona. And considering he had two children with her, they must have gotten off to a great start. Like Mikey did with Rachel. "Alright, what's my story?" Raphael paled quite considerably while Leonardo chuckled behind him. He looked straight into his younger self's eyes.

"Well, it sort of went like this..."

A fairly older Raphael was jumping from roof to roof, going to let out some heat after another argument with Leonardo. Another one about Michelangelo. They fought a lot recently, especially with Leo's recent engagement to Karai, daughter of the missing Shredder, the one who originally wanted them either dead or captured. He hated it.

A scream erupted from an alley just below him. Raph jumped down and hid in the shadows, looking to see what was happening.

He stopped.

The Purple Dragons were tormenting a young girl. Around his age. Se was beautiful, long brown hair, the most stunning eyes and full red lips. She wore a pretty pink dress made of smooth silk and clutched a red leather jacket over her bare shoulders. One of the Dragons had her flowery handbag above his head while the other two were restraining the girl's arm. The one with the handbag had a lighter and was threatening to set fire to the bag.

The girl was screaming. "Please no! Its got all my mementos of my parents! Please don't!"

The Dragon laughed the brought the flame dangerously close, then pulled it away. He grinned at the girl, "Well..." he threw the bag away causing a very expensive looking camera to fall out, the Dragon closest to it picked it up and put it under his jacket. "Since you don't want the bag to be burned, maybe we'll just burn you!"

He grabbed to bottom of her dress and the two other Dragons pushed the girl to the floor. This was going too far, Raph decided to intervene and used the bottom of his Sai to momentarily knock out the two Dragons holding the girl. The other Dragon decided not to stay and quickly left, leaving his fallen companions behind to stumble after him. Raph put his SaI away and turned to leave.

"Who are you?"

Raph turned back to see the girl looking at him with wide eyes. He forgot about her, he picked up her bag and put it in front of her. "S...Sorry."

The girl took her handbag from him and responded, "Don't. You saved me. I'm Mona by the way. Mona Lisa Hunter."

"Hamato Raphael."Raph answered. He really should leave now, he didn't need to get Leo any angrier. "Er, Raphael, bye,"

"Wait." Raph stopped. "C-can I see you again, Raphael?"

Raph was shocked to say the least. "Y-you want to see me again ? But I'm a mutant."

The girl, now called Mona, gave him a look as if to say 'I can see that tough guy'. "Yeah, but you saved me. I'm kind of indebted to you, Raphael."

"Just call me Raph."

"Ok then, Raph. Then you call me Mona."

Raph chuckled. "I'll rather call you Painted, huh, Mona Lisa?"

"Shut it."

Raphael stopped his memory. "Mona became a friend of ours, she met April and Casey and visited the Lair a lot. Then after a while, Mona was accidentally mutated into a lizard and soon after that we started dating. James came the next year."

Raph nodded, he secretly expected that. Leo shrugged, he expected that too. April, Donnie and Mikey had similar expressions so they probably through the same thing.

"Hey, Rachel,"Rachel looked at the speaker, who was Leo again. "You can continue with your story now that we've cleared up ours. What happened when you got to Spain?"

Rachel gave a weak smile and said...

Alright, I've finished Leonardo, Raphael and Donatello's stories and am continuing Rachel and Michel's story. Sorry for the long wait and short chapters.
