Leo and Raph spared each other a glance before facing Donnie again, "the hana-hakaka what?" Raph asked. Donnie sighed, "the Hanahaki disease is where the victim of unrequited or one-sided love begins to vomit or cough up the petals and flowers of a flowering plant growing in their lungs, which will eventually grow large enough to render breathing impossible if left unattended." Donnie explained.
"And how do you fix the Hanahaki disease?" Leo asked.
"Either surgery. Which will removes all the love the victim has for the person. Or if the person love's them back. Of course, I did the surgery option. I'm surprised he managed to breathe with the Nerium flower growing this big." Donnie sighed.

"So... who does Mikey love? Or use to love should I say." The red masked turtle groaned. "Maybe it's Shinigami? Or Rennet?" Raph suggested.

Suddenly, Splinter entered the lab. "If that is the case, then why does Michelangelo have that spot on the back of his neck?" The rat asked. All the turtles shared a glance.
"You see... That's where I'm stuck." Donnie sighed. "We're just gonna have to wait until Mikey wakes up to see if he has any further details that he told non of us. Unless you have something to share, sensei?" Donnie cocked his head to the side.

Splinter sighed and shook his head, "I know as much as you do my sons. I will go and meditate on the matter. I'll see if I can connect with him." With that, Splinter turned and left.

Raph growled. "Yeah, sure. Be with him in a separate room. Good luck doing that." He spat.
"Raph? You know this is just as hard for sensei as it is for us." Leo bites back.
"So what? At least we're at Mikey's side right now! But where is he? In another room mediating! Like he always does!" Raph crossed his arms and looks at Mikey's face. His eyes relaxing slightly. "I just feel like he doesn't cares sometimes..." the terrapin ranted.

A hand was gently set on his shoulder and he saw Donnie and Leo looking down at him with comforting eyes. "Sensei may not be here in the room physically but you must remember he's trying to connect with Mikey one way or another. He'll do it for any of us. To try and bring us back as safely as possible. He just does things a little different to us." Donnie smiled.
Raph didn't feel at all comforted by the words but nodded anyway.
"We know you're stressed, Raph. So are the rest of us..." Leo hugged Raph's side.

All was silent.

That was until a small beep could be heard on one of the machines in the corner of the room.
"Oh no..." Donnie gasped.
"What? What is it?" Leo frantically asked.
"It's Shredder..." Donnie rushed up and to the computer.

"He wants us to meet him in the Stephen A. Schwarzman Library... on the roof of course." Donnie informed.
"Why?" Raph stood up and rushed to Donnie's side.
"It doesn't say." Donnie tried to do some coding but to no avail. "He wants us there right now..." Donnie mumbled.

Leo's eyes narrowed and he rushed to his Sensei's room. Where the rat remained in his meditating state.
"Sensei!" Leo called, the rat's eyes opened.
"Yes, Leonardo?" Splinter asked.

"The Shredder has called for us... what do we do?" Leo mumbled.
"Did he say why?" Splinter raised a brow.
"No... but we can't confront him. We can't let you join us because he wants you dead. And we have one turtle down. I can call April and Casey but even then..." Leo's words trailed off.
"My son... I shall stay and care for Michelangelo. Do not fret. But if anything happens call me immediately. I shall have my cheese phone on the go." Splinter said. "Call April and the boy. Be safe out there, my son." Splinter said sternly.

"Yes, Sensei." With that Leo turned. Called April and Casey to come over and informed Raph and Donnie of what Splinter said.

Once they all gathered up. They all began their journey to the Stephen A. Schwarzman Library.

"This is going to end terribly..." Leo muttered
