~Raphs' View~

Raph is relieved to finally get away from the horrors he witnessed in what used to be a room that is now a pile of brick rumble and debris.

The repulsive odor dwelling within it made him have the urge to puke as he was with his brothers but he managed to keep it down.

He has felt on edge since the phone call incident and the queasy feeling doesn't help to calm his nerves.

The hot-head does his best not to gag in response to the nausea lingering in his stomach while he watches his siblings climb up a ladder.

Somewhere in the back of his mind he wonders if the blood is yours, if so he hopes you had survived and haven't lost too much blood.

Raph figures it leads up to the surface, his fingers curls around one of the cold rustic rods as he hastes to follow them in pursuit.

A desolate silence looms in the air, no one spoke a word not even Mikey who would usually put in the effort to make the mood a cheerful one.

Raph would've thought they are walking to their death if they weren't guided by the nauseating crimson trail ahead of him.

The four terrapins reach the shipment yard on the far east of the city, an array of heavy metal containers of the different colors of blue, red, yellow and gray are before them as each of them slow in their pace.

"The docks, why would he bring her here?" The tallest one with a purple bandana over the eyes asks with a hint of confusion in his voice.

There is no reply from his brothers before they continue to be lead by the blood line.

It didn't take them long to find out where it stops as they are surrounded by shipping containers of one by threes stacked on top of each other.

They stood there forced with no other choice but to turn back if they hadn't walked into an abandoned dead end.

Raph and his brothers shift their gaze at the same time up at a message written in big letters and painted in a thick black substance.

-If you want your friend alive then meet me on the port at midnight tomorrow, come alone Raphael... Or she dies!-

Raph knows you're are alive but doesn't know what condition you're in, he has a feeling you might be injured far worse than you were a day ago.

This makes sense to him considering the significant amount of blood that was spilt on the floor leading up to this point.

"Oh snap, this isn't good bros." The youngest turtle comments with eyes wide open as he turns his head to look at his blue clad brother standing next to him.

"Are we really going to let Raph go alone?"

"Is that even a question?, I'm goin' to save her." Raph replies coming off rude as a scowl shows on his face while he cocks his head from the words on the containers to look at his baby bro.

"I agree with Raph, I don't like this just as much as any of you but we don't have a choice." Leo says with a frown.

"What if Slash decides he wants to destroy him?, he can't take him on all by himself!" Donnie says, joining in the conversation which he has been listening to from the start.

"That might happen but I'm willing to give myself up if it means Y/n will be safe, if she dies I'll never forgive myself." Raph says, a sad look is in his green eyes.

His mind flashes back to the big argument he had that night you left the lair.
