TMNT: Blue

Chapter twenty-three final

Raphael's Point of View:

I put every bit of my strength inta keepin' Bishop away from my mate and twins, but I forgot that this enemy never played fair.

"Arrgh!" I shrieked as Bishop tasered me inta a twitchin' ball of pain.

"Raphael!" I heard Blue shout as Bishop hit me with another round of pain, "No!"

"Die turtle! One more hit of this and your heart explodes," Bishop cackled before gruntin' and goin' still, "What?"

I squinted through tha pain and saw a kunai buried inta Bishop's chest right where his heart would be. I twisted around and saw my mate with his hand still raised after havin' thrown tha kunai as he balanced our squallin' twins with one arm. Tha droids began ta drop one by one around us and I vaguely heard Donnie say that Bishop must have hooked tha androids directly inta his own nervous system ta control them.

"Get away from my mate, Asshole," Leo spat as he settled back ta grip our twins tighter in his arms, "I will never allow you to harm my family again. I have had enough of you terrorizing us. I will not weep for your passing."

"No," Bishop whispered as he stumbled towards my mate only ta gasp as another blade was thrust through his chest from behind.

"By my hands you die," Father calmly stated as Bishop trembled, "You tried to destroy my family. You tortured and harmed two of my children. You tried to harm my grandbabies. You have no honor. Die like the lowly scum you really are, Bishop. Your reign of terror is over."

I was not unhappy ta see Bishop collapse in a pool of his own blood with a look of disbelief on his face. I stood unsteadily and hurried ta my mate's side.

"Raph, are you hurt?" Leo demanded before I silenced him with a desperate kiss, "Lips are okay. What about the rest of you?"

"I'm good," I soothed before checkin' my snifflin' babies, "Imp One? Good. Come here ta Papa, Yoshi. Imp Two? Akane's bleedin'! There's blood on my baby girl!"

"That's not blood, its paint," Leo laughed as Donnie practically flew ta be by our side ta check over our daughter, "That last blast blew up the cans of paint that Mikey found the other day. The paint was red, Raph, calm down. I kept Akane and Yoshi safe"

"Are ya sure that's not blood?" I fretted before relaxin' when Donnie gave me a thumbs up as he handed Akane back ta Blue as Yoshi cuddled closer in my arms snifflin' and wantin' ta be reassured, "Thank ya, God, and thank ya, Leo. Ya saved my shell back there."

"Isn't that what a mate is for?" Leo asked as I pulled him closer so that I could cuddle my mate and twins in relief, "I love you, Raphael Hamato."

"I love ya too, Leonardo 'Blue' Hamato," I sighed as I reveled in feelin' tha three most precious individuals in my life snuggle against me, "What are we goin' ta do about tha lair?"

"Easy," Donnie laughed as he pulled out some type of remote and pushed a button that made a heavy concrete wall seal off tha lab, "I rigged this ages ago if we need to cut off access to any part of the lair. Let's all get inside. I'm going to flood the sewer tunnels in this area to flush out all of Bishop's androids and his dead body."

"Is he really dead?" Blue questioned as he shuddered in my arms.

"As a doornail," Casey stated coldly as he leaned up from checkin' Bishop's pulse and kicked tha corpse in disgust, "Good riddance."

"I'm sure the government will start looking for Bishop soon and they will find him far, far away from us," Donnie assured as I handed my mate our son back, "Everyone, inside."
