“I’m fine.” He almost snapped, just as Donatello had been about to speak. He thought to himself, straightening when he realised that during his coughing fit he’d doubled over.īefore any of his brothers could say anything, Leonardo had removed his hand from April’s shoulder and stepped away from her. Only to make things worse, he’d drawn both Donnie and Mikey’s attention now. One of her hands rested on his carapace, the other on his plastron trying to support his weight while her frown had only deepened.īy the time his coughing had stopped, Leo was gasping for breath. Just thinking about a few-“ Leo was cut off suddenly as he found himself in a coughing fit, unconsciously gripping April’s shoulder for support. Leo quickly nodded his head, realising he’d been frowning himself. “Everything okay, Leo?” She asked, drawing Raphael’s attention. While Leo realised there was probably nothing he could have done, it didn’t ease the guilt gnawing away at him.Īt some point, Leo’s thoughts must have shown on his face as the next thing he knew April was standing next to him, frowning. They’d barely even started the fight with Snakeweed before he’d succumbed to the effects of the gas, leaving his brothers to fend for themselves. Still, he couldn’t help but feel he had failed them in some way. Looking around at his family, Leonardo was glad that they were all safe despite what had happened earlier that day. Speaking of which, the emerald turtle was leaning back against the table in Donnie’s lab, shaking his head in amusement as he watched the two. It was nothing violent, especially when compared to his and Raph’s normal fights.

Leo chuckled to himself as he watched his two youngest siblings rolling around on the floor. “Wait a sec…” He growled before leaping for his older brother. “Thanks Donnie.” Mikey was looking pretty proud of himself, until he worked out exactly what his brother had meant. “But now, I finally understand how you feel all the time.” “No worries bruh.”ĭonatello continued, talking over his shoulder as he kept walking. “You know,” Donnie said as he placed a hand on Mikey’s shoulder, “I gotta admit, sometimes I can be a little hard on you and act like you’re not as smart as me.” He smiled as he walked past them, heading for the door.
