Outlaw's Help ~* COMPLETED *~

Chapter 44

     The rain was getting worse while Raph and Little B was there at the opened area where the FO hideout was. Raph mounted off the horse and then got his handgun off him placing it in the saddles holder.
    Little B got off too but kept his weapons on as they two then started to walk ahead as they first had to walk on the wet rocked bridge as Raph looked down seeing the bridge. " He really made this?"
    " Yeah... He feels like it keeps him safe..." B said walking beside Raph while he said grabbing Raph's wet arm's jacket stopping him. " Raph... I just want you to know... That you are the one I admired and wished to learn more from..."
     Raph kept his face at B getting his hand on B's shoulder. " Sorry am disappointing you like this."
    Raph then lets B go and walked on getting closer to the opening as a few FO's came out in the rain with rifles as then the new leader that turned this group into a bad name. It shows a mutant a little younger than their last leader but still older then Raph as he stopped and stood there as the leader walked over getting into the fast falling rain even though he hated it and stood right in front of Raph. " I knew you would come back to us, dear Raphael."
    Raph clenched his hands showing a mad look while the rain had him getting more and more soaked as he looked to the leader's mutated face while Raph spoke coldly. " I came for my sister, not you Tiger Claw... "
    He smirked then quickly punched Raph hard on the face as he lands to the wet ground but got back slowly on his knees while his hat flew off from the punch landing close to Little B. Tiger claw looked to the men as he said pointing at Raph. " Take him in and let's get this started."
     The two came and grabbed Raph pulling and dragging him into the place as B grabbed Raph's hat and ran a little in. " Not yet!"
    Tiger claw stopped and looked to B. " What did you say?"
     B took a second to get the courage but then said to him while they were out of the rain. " He offered to accept the exchange as long as I take Mona to a safe place..."
    Tiger claw looks to Raph as he had a little strand of blood coming out of his mouth and down his face. " Fine go take him to say bye to his little sister then Raph is ours. "
    B nodes his head while he stood there at the opening while Raph got then pushed to the way his sister was walking thru the rock tunnels as they looked like a bunch of hallways and was also dark as the only thing to have them see was the fire all around the walls.
     While they walked over to where the people imprisoned was as Raph looked around till he heard as if light words being said while they went to a door and one of them opened it as Raph's eyes widened seeing a salamandrian sitting there in what looked like she was an outlaw cowgirl as she looked over to them while Raph shoved the men and ran to her as he got her into a quick hug when she good up. " Mona!"
    She looked surprised and looked at Raph almost losing her balance. " Have we met?"
    He then hugged her tighter as he said. " I'm sorry... I thought you died... I thought I lose you! That day... I should have not sent you home..."
    She stood there then widened her eyes with tears getting her hands around him. " Raphael?"
     Raph chocked in tears shaking. "It's okay now... You are being taken to a good friend of mine..."
    " What? What are you talking about?" She asked pulling away for a little so they could look at each other. But before he could answer her the men came getting them apart as Tiger Claw came in and got Mona free from the ankle chain there. " Your brother is giving his life to us to release you."
    " No!" Moan yelled as one man came getting her arm pulling her to the exit as she yelled trying to get free seeing Raph getting chained up. " No! Raphael! Brother!"
     It was not as long as she was then out to the open as Little B came fast to her getting her in his wet arms. " You are okay... "
    " No! My brother is in there I can't -"
    " Mona... I know how you feel... But Raph chose this path... And we have to accept it... " they walked over and heating away from the place as Mona cried covering her eyes.

     The days went by slowly to Leo as he was out running up the cows for their check up as he would have his red ribbon on his wrists tightly so he would not lose it. He got the rein turning the horse with the other cows trying to keep them in order while he was getting closer to the farm seeing it in a good few miles as he was on a tall hill.
     He was keeping his eyes out for Raph's sister to come there while he also tried to calm down alone. But as he was heading down the hill Leo saw what seemed like two horses coming over to his family while he wanted to run over but he had to get the cows in the barn.
    But while he got close he also saw it was them while Donnie noticed Leo coming getting the gates opened so the cows go in with ease. Leo rode on and around the cows was they got finely all in and Leo getting off the horse as he saw the girl looking down as if she has lost someone dear to her.
    Leo knew the feeling as he came over and went right to Moan. " Hey, you must be Raph's sister."
     She didn't look up but just nods as she heard Leo say more as she also smelled a scent on Leo as if he was Raph. " I am sorry for all of this happening... Trust me when I say I feel what you are going thru..."
    She looked at him seeing Leo with his scare while she started to cry all of a sudden and went to Leo hugging him as she cried out. " I just wanted to find my brother! Not getting him killed!"
      Leo hugged her back as he looked to his brothers then B. " I'm sorry I could not stop him..."
