Donnie draged Leo to his room, ready to give him the talk of a lifetime and won't let Leo leave until he hears every word that Donnie has to say. Which Donnie is also determined to not let Leo leave the room until he hears every word he has to say. Since his two older brothers need to make it up to one another or else their relationship will fall apart and they will never make up again.
"Leo if you keep this up, loosing you're temper and start an argument with Raph then you two will never make up for what happened after the bank heist." said Donnie exasperatly "Mikey and I aren't always going to be here to stop/buffer your arguments with Raph forever."
"I know Donnie, but Raph is too difficult." said Leo instantly "Since ever since the heist, the more I try to make up to him the harder it gets."
"Only that you two are making it harder for each other to even try to make up." said Donnie matter of factly as always "The only way if you want to repair your relationship with Raph is to be patient with him and at least try to fix your mistakes. Not make them worse."
"Donnie don't you think that I'm trying!" argued Leo "But Raph is too hurt by this. I don't know if he will ever forgive me for what happened that night."
"Well you never know if you don't try." said Donnie "Plus it might be best if you do it or else you might loose him forever. Unless you apologize and fix your mistake and talk to Raph."
"I will talk to him Donnie, I just need to find the right moment to apologize that's all." said Leo
"No Leo I think that it might be best if you do it now before it's too late and you loose Raph forever." said Donnie "I gotta go and check on Raph. But I just hope that you figured out a way of how to make up to him that does more good to whatever relationship you have left with Raph and try to fix it and do what might be best for this family." With that Donnie left without saying another word and without looking back. But silently hoping that Leo made the right decision. Which Leo knew that he must talk to Raph as soon as he can or otherwise he might as well start wishing that Donnie will make a time machine for him in order to go back through time and fix things up with Raph and avoid this from happening. Leo just hopes that Raph will listen to him.
Meanwhile in Raph's room
Mikey is trying to figure out what the best way to talk to Raph without starting and dealing with a argument. But Mikey knew that he had to try, since Donnie is depending on him and he doesn't want to disappoint him. Which Mikey quickly decided it might be best to start simple and continue on from there.
"So Raph, how are you doing?"Asked Mikey "Do you feel any better than before or about the same? Do you remember me and the others or did you forget due to the fight that you and Hun had?"
"Mikey of course I remember you. You're my little brother and it's hard to forget someone like you if you are related to them or lived with them all your life." responded Raph "and yes I'm doing better than yesterday obviously since I'm awake aren't I?" Which the response made Mikey happy and smile for a bit. Since at least Mikey knows now that Raph is getting better and is healthy enough to make sarcastic remarks. But Mikey knew now it's time to get back to business and do his plan.
"Uh Raph if I talk to you about something, can you promise not to get mad and won't interupt until I'm done ok?" said Mikey in demanding but nervous way. Which he was unsure of how Raph would respond. But fortunately for Mikey, he just gave a simple nod and said "Sure Mikey, whatever you say." After a immediate sigh of relief, Mikey decided to get started.
"Raph for what I'm about to tell you it's going to be something that you might get mad. So I don't want you to say anything until I'm done." Said Mikey nervously.
"Sure Mikey but you don't have to say it a million times." said Raph exasperatly "I already heard it the first time, so what is it?"
"Raph do you remember anything that night? Do you wonder how did you ever managed to escape from Hun?" began Mikey.
"Well I have some vauge memories of it." Said Raph honestly "Plus it's really obvious on how I must have escaped even if I don't rember. Since both you and Donnie rescued me right?" Which the next part of trying to confront Raph is making him nervous.
"Actually we played a small part in the rescue." said Mikey nervously "It was Leo who got you out of there alive and stop Hun from turning you to his personal punching bag and all we did was to pick both you Leo up and drive you two back to the lair."
"This is a joke isn't it Mikey?" said Raph immediately confused and surprise "Leo hates me and why would he even do that if he feels that way towards me?"
"That's because he doesn't feels that way about you and never has. Leo is actually really sorry of what he said after the bank heist." said Mikey imediatly after Raph said that. " Plus it's no joke, that really happened and if you don't believe me then you should ask Donnie and master Splinter then they will tell you what I'm telling you right now."
"I believe you Mikey." said Raph "But I just don't understand why he would risk his life for me like that?"
"That's because he does care for you Raph and you need to talk to him." said Mikey "Just think about it. Since this is your choice to make whether or not you want to make it up to him. I hope that you make a choice that does more good for yourself and this familly." With that Mikey left the room leaving Raph to think about the desicion he has to make.
A few minutes later in the training room
Donnie and Mikey Just spoke to their brothers and but they were both nervous on what an impact they must have made to both of them and went to talk to Splinter about on any more advice on what they should do to help their brothers make up.
"Well my sons all I have to say that I'm proud of both of you for what you did to help your brothers. I know that confronting them must not have been easy for either of you to do." said Splinter to the two of them "I'm am especially proud of you, Michelangelo for thinking of that plan that could help your brothers more than if they dealed with it on their own." Which Mikey has a proud smile, since for once he did something good rather than goofying around.
"But sensei, even if we did help and talk to them that doesn't mean that they'll make up." pointed out Donnie "Since they can start arguing at any moment about some little thing that's really isn't a big deal and we can't always come to the rescue and stop the arguments from getting worse."
"True but that doesn't meant that you can't help your brothers." said Splinter "Now they're going to need both of your help more then ever before. Since this is not going to be easy for any of us to handle. Plus I could already imagine how annoying and bothersome it will be for a while probley due to their disagreements being more frequent and worse then before. But you two have to be there for both of your brothers."
"Especially when or before they blow their tops off and drive us all crazy." said Mikey in a surprising matter of fact tone.
"That is correct Michalangeo." said Splinter "Which we need to be prepared for anything this might leads do you understand my sons?"
"Yes Sensei." said the two youngest turtles. But before any of them could say anyhing else Leo passed by the training room ready to face something that not even his ninja gear can help him.
"Leo where are you going?" asked Mikey noticing his brother looking like if he's ready to face the Shredder singlehandly without any help or his katanas with him.
"I'm going to go talk to Raph." answered Leo "Since I just realized that we can't live like this forever. I love and care for Raph as a brother and best friend, I'm not going to let this or an argument make me loose him." With that Leo left the training room and continue heading straight towards Raph's room. Which he capture the remainder of his family shocked and surprise
"That was extremely unexpected." said Donnie surprised "Do you think it will go well?"
"I don't know Donatello." said Splinter surprise as well "But I believe that it might be best if we follow along and listen in their conversation just in case they need our assistance."
"I think that your right on that one master Splinter." said Mikey "We should follow him and check if they might need our help." With that the two turtles and rat began to head towards Raph's room to see what happens next.
So there's the next chapter! Sorry for the delay it's just that I've been busy and school started. Along with the fact that I only gotten one vote for the poll and you all missed the deadline and I had to figure out how to make it fair for everyone. For purplecat41877 I want to thank you for being the only voter and apologies if you are disappointed by this chapter or this wasn't exactly what you had in mind. But I just wanted to be fair to everyone and don't think it would be fair if I just based off one vote and many others are reading this story. I just hope you understand and not too mad or anything. So that's all for now and I just hope that this chapter was worth the wait and I hope you enjoy it.
