Outlaw's Help ~* COMPLETED *~

Chapter 48

       Leo was getting ready to head out as Mona stood by watching Leo. " Please let me come with Leo..."
      " No Mona this is something I need to do."
     " I have been on my own for years Leo! I can fight too! He is my brother!" Mona yelled as that got Leo to look to her as he had different clothes on from his other clothing was covered in blood from last nights fight. " That's why you need to stay here... If there is more out there then I need you and my brothers safe."
     " What about you! Donnie told me about those men you killed years ago... You can't be like this Raph will not be okay with this since it's not you..." Leo turned over and placed a hand on her head saying to her calmly. " I love him, Mona... But if it meant I have to be what I fear to save Raph then that's what I will do."
     She looks to him with puffed out cheeks. " You are as hopeless as Raph when he was a kid..."
    Leo chuckled and then went on as he looked to the others as B then came by Leo so he was going to show Leo the way.

     Leo and Little were riding on the horses when the rain would not let down making B looked ahead saying. " if this rain does not stop in a few days there will be a big flood under the bridge. "
    " What bridge?" Leo asked while B still looked ahead. " it's what our new leader made thinking he could use it in the future or something... '
      Leo looked around then stopped his horse as he said. " We should find a place to stop and rest."
    B nods and points ahead. " There are a few trees ahead if we walk on. "
     So they head the way to the trees and there was a lot so when they where in the trees it would stop the rain from falling on them while B would lay down sleeping and Leo sitting up sharpening his two Katanas. He would be silent trying to think now every attack move he would have to make to get Raph out alive.
     Leo was so determined to get Raph out that he could not sleep sitting there looking then to Little B sleeping as Leo didn't know why he saw Leo as if it was him. Leo was a man that just lost his father when he met Raph as Leo saw him as a bad outlaw.
    Leo treated Raph badly when he helped around the farm but then Leo all of a sudden felt closer to Raph but when he wanted to check and not have Raph be alone on the town's party is when Leo then felt how much he would do for Raph. Leo wished Raph was around to hold him and touch him but Leo knew he had to go get Raph out and heal him before they had more fun.

      When the morning was coming and the rain was still falling Tiger Claw was getting agitated while he stood there at the entrance waiting for the men that he sent to get Mona. His arms were crossed and his foot was tapping while he said mad. " How longs does it take to get one salamandrine female from three stupid farmers... Get me, Raphael!"
    So two men went to get Raph as it did not take long while they came and threw him to the muddy ground as he was too weak to really stand as he just got yet another beating. He tried to get on his hands and knees but his arms were shaking badly as he was topless with the bloody skin looking also as purple as his dark green color was not even really noticeable.
     " What are these farmers! Are some sort of killers too!" Tiger claw yelled as he then kicked Raph back to the ground and he landed to his side feeling the sting from the mud getting in his opened wounds. But he chuckled even though he had not eaten or drunk anything for a while he said to Tiger Claw. " they might lack the skills to kill... But they know how to keep others safe..."
     Tigerclaw got mad more and grabbed Raph's throat hard as it made Raph make a choking noise. " You will die in a horrible way that it will make them all shiver from how you died!"
      Raph got a hand on the tiger's arm with a weak grip but said still smirking as a little of blood was flowing a little out of the side of his lip. " I died saving my little sister... That's what I see when every one that knows my name... "
      Tiger Claw looked to Raph more when then someone yelled as he dropped Raph back to the mud as he looked ahead. " I see two horses coming!"
     " Take him back in!" Tiger claw said mad when Raph was then getting dragged back in but as he looked in front of him he was scared that is was Mona on one of those horses. " Don't you touch her Tiger Claw! If you do I will kill you!"
     " Tigh him up in the opening wooden pole. We will have our fun watch him struggling to get free. " Tiger Claw said as Raph then got in and the walked down the center hall as they got in the opened hole of the cave as it was raining right on the two and Raph.
     They got him on the pole as his arms were over his head as he looked down wishing to God it was not Mona. But when they got done tieing him on the pole with the rope tightly around him he looked a little up as the rain slowly watched the mud down his sore body.
