No ones p.o.v
"Ewww! Are we in Staten Island?" Leo said, throwing his arms up. Everyone squeezed him into a hug. "Leo! Please don't do that again!" Raph cried. Leo winced in pain, as his brothers have not yet let go. "Heheh.." Leo coughed, "You're one to talk, big bro. Hero moves are totally your style.
Raph sighed as everyone let go. "You almost died, yet the barbs continue." Donnie scolded. "Shut your big, beautiful eyebrows and let's go home." Leo laughed, weakly.
He started to sit up, ignoring the pain in his lower plastron and knee. "ACK!" Leo fell back down, Raph catching him. "Maybe you shouldn't walk, Nardo." Donnie said, putting on his goggles to examine him. "You clearly have a cracked shell, bruised and even broken bones and a-" Leo put a hand on his twins mouth. "Quit your worrying, Donald. Im fine."
"And a completely shattered knee." Donnie said, pushing Leos hand away and taking off his goggles. "You're in no condition to walk, Leo, let Raph carry you. Leo sighed. "Fine.."
Raph smiled as he picked him up, aswell as letting Mikey, who is clearly distressed, onto his back. "By the way," Leo continued. "How did you guys get me out of that prison dimention?" Leo looked up at Raph and Mikey.
"Easy explanation, really," The purple disaster twin said. "Mikey opened a... eh.. portal." He pointed to the on edge, shaking, orange box turtle who smiled and looked down at Leo. Leo returned the kind gesture.
"Lets go home guys." Said Raph. "Okay Mama bear." Leo chuckled.

Later in the evening, Leo was laying down in Donnies lab, getting an Xray. "Like I said Nardo, no place to walk. Or even sit up for that matter, yet you persist." Donnie said, taking a look at the Xray. "Seems like its about as bad as I imagined. A shattered knee, cracked shell, bruised bones and a scuffed up plastron." Donnie turned around to look at Leo.
"What happened in the prison dimension, Nardo? You don't usually get this hurt." Donnie questioned. "It's like you almost gave up on fighting. Very unlike you." Leo turned his head to the other side. "Not a big deal, Dee. Ill heal eventually." "Yeah, but throughout that 'eventually' we will be leaderless."
Leo turned his head back to Donnie. "Not like I actually wanted to be leader, you know that don" Donnie nodded in response. "Besides, Raph will make a much better leader than moi." Donnie snicked. "It won't be the same without you Nardo."
"I'm just that amazing, aren't I?" Leo smiled. "So, you just gonna stand there or are you gonna patch me up?" He said with a sarcastic tone, one much like Donnies.
"Sigh, Leo, Leo, Leo. Lets get you all bandaged up." Donnie replied, grabbing the bandages and painkillers and walking over to Leo. "Might sting a little, bro. Gonna need you to stay still." Donnie reassured.
After a long, painful 10 minutes, Donnie was finally done and tears were filling Leos eyes. He refused to cry, evening if his life depended on it. He wouldn't let a few bandages show any weakness. Though, he really did want to. "You okay Nardo?" Donnie asked, worried for his twin. "Yeah Don-Tron. All fine." Leo choked back tears as he plastered on his award winning face-man smile. "Y'know its okay to cry." Donnie reassured. "You're one to talk" Leo chuckled at his joke.
Donnie rolled his eyes. "You need help up?" Donnie suggested. "No, bro. I got this." Leo said. "It wasn't really a question." Donnie said, helping his brother sit up. Leo sighed. He agreed with himself that he really needed help. And he would take it reluctantly if absolutely needed. But damn, he wasn't going to ask for it. Donnie knew how Leo was, though. Leo thinks he's better than everyone. He can and will prove to everyone and more that he doesn't need help, even in times like these.
Leo that carefully swung his legs to where they were hanging off of the table and got off on his good leg. "Just give me a crutch and I'll be a-okay." Leo smiled to Donnie as he got handed one. They both started to head out of the lab.
Everyone was crowded around the entrance. "Are you okay, Blue? We heard you screaming." Splinter asked. It was rare to see him up and about now-a-days. "Yeah, pops. A-okay. Donnie-boy here just needed to put a few casts and bandages on." Leo explained, pointing to Donnie.
"Sigh, yes. Mr. 'Im always careful' over hear had a broken knee that needed tending to." Donnie further explained. "He sat still, luckily."
"Guess ear bleeding cries for help were to make up for it?" Mikey questioned. "Leo snicked, clutching his side in pain. "Guess so, little bro." He said, patting his brothers head.
"You guys wanna go watch some Jupiter Jim to cool off?" Raph suggested. "Yeah!" Mikey and Leo said at the same time. "Beat ya to it!" Mikey said running off. Leo grunting, wanting to run off aswell, yet he couldn't for obvious reasons.
Raph picked Leo up, holding him in one arm. "Ready to win, little bro?" Leos eyes lit up as he smiled. Raph then sprinted off, past Mikey and beating him to the couch.
"NOO!" Mikey yelled. "Hahah! We get to pick the show!" Raph yelled, setting his younger brother on the couch as he grabbed the remote.
After everyone gathered around and after Mikey stopped sulking, Raph and Leo got to pick the episode. "That one is my favorite!" Leo exclaimed, pointing at the T.V.
"Alrighty then, let's watch that one." Raph smiled.
