Captured

Chapter 4

Raph's POV

Tiger Claw took us and threw us outside

I was lucky to be alive.

But I couldn't stop thinking about one thing.

They have Leo!

I'm almost in tears.

I can only imagine the horrifying things they'll do to him. That's if he's still alive.

We stood outside of Shredders lair.

What now?

We tell Splinter that they took Leo?

We go back in and and try to save him?

"We have to go to the lair." Donnie said.

"And leave Leo here? Without anyone to trust?" I said.

"Raph, I know this is hard. But do we really want to go back in there and try to beat Shredder for the third time today?" Donnie asked.

"You're right. We have to tell Splinter about this. Hopefully he'll understand." I said.

We walked to the lair silently.
Almost no one said a word.

Once we entered the sewers, we talked a little.

"I'll explain this to Splinter." I said.

They nodded.

Mikey hasn't talked much.

In fact, none of us has.

We're all to scared.

They took our leader.

The best fighter on the team.

I feel responsible for this.

If I would've helped Mikey and Donnie, none of this would've happened!

We went into the lair.

"Splinter!" I called right as I walked in.

It was not long until he came to us.

He could see fear in out eyes.

"What happened my sons?" He asked worriedly.

"They took Leo." I said and left it to that.

I could also see the fear in Splinter's eyes.

"Raphael, why don't you come with me." Splinter said.

I followed him into the dojo.

We sat down.

I explained to him what happened with a lot of detail.

"We have to go back and save him!" I explained.

"Raphael, it is to dangerous." Splinter warned.

"We can't lust leave him there!" I yelled.

"Raphael, I am not willing to risk the the rest of your lives!" Splinter said.

"Then what do we?" I asked.

"How about we meditate?" Splinter suggested.

"I think I need to go to my room." I told Splinter and left.

That night while Splinter was meditating, I called my brothers the the kitchen.

"I now that Splinter said that
we can't go back, but we have too."

"Raph, he's right!" Donnie exclaimed.

"No he's not! We' be fine." I said.

"And what makes you think that? We weren't fine the last time!" Mikey said.

"This time we'll be prepared. We'll come up with a plan!"

"I don't know Raph, it's just too risky." Donnie said.

"Fine, if you guys don't wanna save Leo, I'll do it alone." I said and left to my room.
