(Raph's P.O.V)

The first seconds that passed when I woke up was the only thing on my mind was the throbbing in my head and the stiffness in my body, and at first I didn't remember where I was or what had happened. Then I remembered what had happened! The fight, Karai and how Leo had saved her! My eyes snapped open and I sat up, but immediately regretted it when the throbbing in my head got a little worse. I put my hands to my head, trying to sooth the throbbing and then tried to stand up slowly. My legs were a little unsteady first, but after standing they got more used to stand again. Then I looked around and saw Mikey, Leo and April lie there on the cold roof to. Out cold, and completely still, but Donnie was gone though. I walked over to Leo and shook him a little to wake him up, which he did. After a few minutes anyway. Leo blinked a few times and then looked up at me.

"Raph...? Wha- what happened?" I put my hands under his shell and neck and helped him sit up. He groaned a little and clutched his head, just like I had done earlier. But once he had regained his focus, I started to fill him in on what had happened.

"We were fighting the Foot and then Karai got to Donnie, who were about to finish the job, when you jumped in and saved her! Why the heck did you do that?!" Leo avoided my eyes for a minute before answering, still not looking at me.

"I don't know. I guess something told me it wasn't right to let her die or at least get hurt. Something Master Splinter told me about her. Something from his past I was intrusted with a while ago, after I had been captured by Karai and all that." I saw he wasn't telling me everything, but I decided to let it go, for now. I would ask him about it later. When Donnie was safe. Oh my god! Donnie! Leo seemed to have thought the same thought.

"We have to wake the others and then get back to the city! Fast!" He flew up from the ground as fast as he could. A little too fast it appeared, since he looked like he was about to faint any second after he did. I was fast to get to my feet and grab him under the arms to keep him on his feet and not fall to the cold ground.

"Take it easy Leo. Don't stress yourself, we'll get to that. But first we'll wake the others and make sure they are alright, and then we'll get Donnie back. Okay?" He looked at me with his look of worry, then nodded and we both walked up to the others. As I woke Mikey up and Leo woke April, Alex had somehow made his way up on the roof and gasped when he saw us and the others starting to come to.

"What has happened? Where is your brother? And that girl?" Leo looked away in shame and felt like I had to answer for him. I helped Mikey up and held him under his arms for support like I had done with Leo earlier. He looked at me and he probably saw I was upset, since he put a hand on my arm. It gave me a little encouragement, but not much.

"That 'girl' ,as you say, took him! She knocked us out and took him back to the city! And who knows how long we've been out cold? It could be hours!" Alex shook his head and looked at me, and it was the first time I saw him serious. Well, if you don't count when he had told us about being more caring and less pushy with Donnie.

"Not, not hours. I was only alone down there after Mikey left me there for about thirty minutes and then I started to look for you, and I guess that took about ten, fifteen minutes or something like that. So my guess is that you were out cold between thirty minutes and forty minutes. But how are you? Are you okay?" I looked down at Mikey, who nodded reassuringly, and then I looked at Leo and April and both of them nodded, even if April had her arm around Leo's neck for a minute or so.

"We're fine, Alex. Did you see anything when you were down at the ground or with that girl you saw before?" Alex brought his hand up to his chin and rubbed it in a thoughtful way. He then showed a little smile, like he had thought of something.
