Headcanon that Leo really loved to give his family massages growing up. We know that he’s good at them from the episode “You Got Served” and we know he likes spas and relaxation and getting massages himself from when he tried to get these in “Bad Hair Day” and from when Donnie made a tennis ball massage machine in “Smart Lair.”
So I think it’d be cute to think that maybe one day Leo overheard Splinter complaining about a bad back and immediately Leo thinks back to a comic or movie or something he saw where a massage helped so he offers to give one and it actually ends up helping Splinter.
Then April swings by the Lair at a later time and mentions her back hurting because of her backpack from school and Leo’s all like “I gotcha!”
From there, he occasionally manages to convince Donnie to sit for one because Donnie’s shrimp posture does not help him any (Leo pokes fun at how sandpaper-y Donnie’s shell is despite knowing it’s always like that and Donnie smacks him for it.) Donnie usually prefers hand massages instead however as all his typing and inventing adds up over time, and shoulder massages too once he starts wearing his battle shells more. Leo also figures out how to give massages to Raph and Mikey’s shells as well, though it’s a struggle at first to not scratch his hands on Raph’s spikes.
I think since Leo has such bad luck with spas and the like, he tries giving himself massages (though it’s not as helpful.) Like, with how his abilities work his legs are probably always aching from his portal jumping and one foot landings, so maybe he branches past back massages out of a need to help his own aches too. (Though he really wants a shell massage himself, the same way he’d give them…the one time with Donnie’s tennis ball massage machine was but a short moment of what Leo’s been missing out on and what he’ll continue missing out on…)
I don’t know, I just think it’d be cute to think Leo could have honed his massaging skill this way in order to help out his family (and also partially because he wants a massage himself.)
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt leo#rottmnt headcanons#rise leo#this unironically is a smidge pointing to the medic Leo headcanon too#because massages are really good at relieving pain you didn’t even know you had#not just for backs but for your hands your feet your neck#poor Leo just wants to be the one getting a massage for once in ‘Bad Hair Day’ but no#he’s really good at getting everyone else to chill and rest and relax in general it’s very interesting to see#unironically I wonder if Leo could be really good at meditation so long as you call it relaxation instead#also after the invasion I’d imagine everyone has some aches and pains#ironically enough Leo himself likely has the most from the sheer amount of blunt force trauma and potential broken bones#so it’s sad to think the one who massages best is the one who needs it most alas#imagine a time where Draxum finally manages to get on Leo’s good side and Leo hears him complaining that his cafeteria job gives back pains#and Leo’s like UGH FINE I GUESS I’LL HELP#I also like to think that for all they tease Raph for his ‘chasm’ Leo sometimes will massage Raph’s face#and when he does Raph finally relaxes enough to look his age#when Mikey starts growing hair he loves when Leo massages his scalp esp if he’s helping to wash it too#mayhem doesn’t like Leo much at first but QUICKLY warms up to him because of how good his pets are#smart lair shows they all canonically love massages actually I was reminded! so this makes even more sense with that too

I think that's the worst part, even in his final moments Draxum won't realize he made a mistake, and all he ultimately did was change one bad situation to another bad situation only worse, all because Draxum doesn't understand people as much as he understands science and fails to realize that in essence, the Yōkai are still human. Not to mention that he will left Galois to deal with a situation he's not prepared for.
Galois will undoubtedly have it worse, as he will not be able to understand why on earth they are fighting each other, aren't they all the same now? This is not what his father said would happen.
I just have another question, where will Bella and Pax be in all this? Let me guess, Bella will die trying to stop Draxum.
Now I'm curious how it would be if Draxum had won in the timeline in which he managed to keep all four turtles from the beginning?
That is a really good analysis, A+. Draxum is fun to write because he's not so full of himself that he thinks he's infallible-he's just very stupid in certain situations. He might be willing to admit he was wrong, (eventually) but he wouldn't until he understood how he was wrong. And he'd have a very hard time understanding this.
It also sucks for Galois because he is absolutely not 'leader' material and Draxum is not training him for any sort of political office. He's grooming him to take over his science man position, not his military general and world leader one. But people would look to him for leadership once Draxum was gone, and without people like his brothers and April and everyone he wouldn't have the resources to break himself out of the mindset Draxum built him into. I can just imagine him wanting to work on some advanced space travel thing while everyone is asking him to address some racial conflict or run for World President or something, and he's like "leave me ALONE, I literally gave you the technology to make a utopia, do you want me to press the buttons for you?! What the fuck are the rest of you here for?!!" Ironically, Cass would make a decent political leader herself, but she wouldn't be viewed as Draxum's 'true' heir since she's not his legal daughter.
I actually had Bella die at first, lol. Way back when she was supposed to be a super minor character and only be physically present in about two scenes, she was supposed to die off-screen and it would fuel some later character development (or devolvement) of Draxum's. I feel like she's too popular now to kill her off in that manner though. If I did have her die I'd give her a very heroic death, probably while protecting Leo. (I'm not gonna have her die, don't worry. I might fuck her up though, and I'm wondering if Leo should lose his arm at some point)
If Draxum did get to his endgoal, yeah I expect Bella would end up dying trying to prevent it. She's incredibly intelligent but she's also hot-headed enough to throw herself at things with no regard for herself. Draxum would probably try to do the same thing as with the turtles and just move her to the other side of the world so she'll live out her life in peace, but I could see her just killing herself to make a point to her uncle.
Pax would probably end up getting killed as well, though by the resistance. His kindness and aversion to conflict makes him easy to manipulate, and he'd be an easy target. Ironically, he'd make a great political leader himself if it wasn't for his trauma-induced mutism and difficulty trusting people.
I mean, he would have lost so fucking hard if he had gone with his original plan. If anything, it might have ended up here anyway, with just Draxum and Donnie after the other boys are killed, because one squadron is not going to kill billions of people. But also I feel like Splinter would have killed Draxum himself and taken Donnie away after Draxum got his other kids killed. It would be really nice to imagine a 'everything is fine' AU where Draxum abandons his plans and marries Lou and they raise their children together, (with cool cousin Pax and vodka aunt Bella) but I truly don't think anything could have convinced Draxum that humans weren't the problem before he was forced to live with them.

You will be Mondo Gecko Chapter 1
It all starts on a warm summer night.  In the depths of New York City.
 Our heroes in orange and blue bandana make their way through the very crowded market of the Hidden city.
 With salespeople trying to draw attention to customers, curious magic objects. And children insistently begging their parents to buy them something.
 A typical situation of a market.-Aaagh...Why did we have to come just this day-
 The blue one protests, while hiding his face more with the cap of his jacket.
-... I already told you that I am wanted to catch me in this place after the incident at the spa ...¿why didn't you ask someone else, like Raph or Donnie? -
-Because they are busy ... Donnie is still working at Shelldon, and Raph is having a private training session with Dad-
 Michelangelo answers while enthusiastically observing several of the objects that were sold.
 He loved visiting that city.  And more if it was about seeing novel magic objects.
 -¿And why didn't you ask Draxum? ... He have free time - Leo asks, annoyed at being there.  He did not like to hide his identity, and to have the tension of being seen.
 -¿Don't you remember that he is massively wanted here? ... They are being more cautious with the prisoners after you escaped from jail ...-
 He turns to look seriously at his older brother.
 -... If they catch him, we may not be able to rescue him as easily as last time ... we can't risk it-
 -Of course ... and they can lock me up for life, right? -
 -Don't be exaggerated ... you are a young ninja ... Obviously you won't be caught as easily as him.  That he is weak and old for persecutions ... - he says giving him a somewhat annoyed look - ... Why do you think they sent me here?-
 -Exactly, they sent you, ¿why do they include me in this? ....-
 Leo stops in front of a store, falling behind the orange one.
 -Because you're  my  older brother.  And you must accompany me to make the orders for Draxum-
 Mikey faces him, somewhat annoyed by the unusual bad attitude of the one in blue. Normally he would be delighted to come to that place.
 -Today was the last chapter of "Married with himself".  Now how will I know if he discovered that it was only a mirror? - He complains slightly about his loss.
 While Mikey only gives an annoyed look, discovering the reason why his older brother was like this.  Sometimes, even if he didn't accept it, he could bring out his childish side.
 -Look, I could perfectly come alone.  But Raph says that I am forbidden to come alone to this city .... It is not my fault that he treats me like a baby-
 - Well, it's not mine either ... I just wanted to enjoy this beautiful Saturday night ... Enjoying some delicious snacks, while I watch one of my favorite shows ...-
 Mikey just starts to shake his head slightly, in disapproval of the older man's attitude. But Leo just ignores Mikey's expression, smiling, as he imagines that longed-for situation. And then give a sigh of defeat
 -But guess what ... not all of us get what we want ... You don't leave the nest, and I don't have my grand finale-
 -Hey, don't compare my situation with your stupid narcissistic program- says the one in orange crossing his arms, as a sign of anger.
 -Yeah yeah ... whatever you say baby Mikey ...- He goes ahead of the child with a mocking look -... Try to insult me ​​when you leave mom Rapha's nest  ...-
 Michelangelo only gives a slight grunt at the teasing he was receiving from the red-eared turtle.  But he was was resisting to start an discussion.
 -Ha ha ha...look at your face, you look like a grumpy old man-
 Leo laughs as he points to the face of a notably angry Mikey, who looked like he was about to explode.  It could really be annoying when they argue.
 -If you don't change it, you can stay like this forever-
 Leonardo's mockery was interrupted, due to the sudden knock he received from the door of the store.  Opened by some hooded subjects, who came out of it at full speed.
 -¡¡LEO!!-
 Mikey forgets the discussion, to quickly help the almost unconscious Leonardo. Who was totally stunned by the hit he received.
 -¡¡HELP!!-
 He quickly directed his gaze towards the person who yelled.  Discovering an elderly cyclops, who left the store dejected by what had just happened.
 - ¡¡Those guys have stolen my mirrors !! -
 Michelangelo looks at those who had just left the store.  They weren't far and they weren't very fast.
 He deduced that it would take short time in to catch those if he made his way over roofs and buildings.
 This would be a good opportunity to show what he is capable of to his brother in blue bandana.  To sabotage a robbery without having the help of his brothers, it would be a good feat that would silence them permanently.
 Also, being a self-proclaimed hero, he wouldn't let that injustice go so easily.
 -Wait here Leo, I won't be long - he says, simulating a typical voice of a comic book hero, which he read without permission from Leo.
 As soon as he says that, he puts down the shopping bags from that day, with the boy still stunned from the blow.  To quickly pursue the chase after those thieves.
 -¿Eh? ... ¡Wait! -
 The absence of the box turtle immediately restores him from the daze.  And as he can, he try to get up as quickly as possible
 -¡Mikey come back here! .... ¡¡¿Where do you think you are going? !! -
 Unfortunately he was not heard by the minor.  Which runs across the roofs of stores, so quickly that in a second it completely disappears from his sight.
 -Damn ... ¿now what will I say to Pops?- He says annoyed at being abandoned like that.
 And sore from his fall.
 -¿Eh? ... ¡Hey!, ¡¿isn't that the spa thief?!-
 Confused, he turns to see where that comment came from. He finding a group of Yokais, who were carefully studying his appearance.
 He scratched his head confused by their interested looks.  Only to notice that he was no longer wearing his jacket cap. That he has surely falling in that blow.
 He swore at that moment he sweated cold
 -He he.... I don't know what they're talking about, it's the first time I've come to this city- He says hiding his nervousness as best as possible.  In the hope that they would believe his lie.
 -He's lying! ...- One of them shouts showing those present a "Wanted" sign. With a very gratifying sum of money as a reward- ... It's the same guy in the photo, only he's now bald! -
 - Oh boi - as soon as he says that, he proceeds to take the purchases, and to escape at full speed down the main street.
 Towards the same direction his younger brother took a few seconds ago.
 -¡¡COME BACK HERE!!-
 Yokais' group chase after him, like an enraged mob chasing a beast.  Even with torches and weapons.
 Leo just runs like there's no tomorrow.  Using his ninja skills to avoid bumping into confused people in the market.
 -¡¡YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS, MIKEY!! -
 It's the only thing he could say to run at full speed.  Dodging the weapons and nets of the crowd.
 ••••••••••••••
The orange bandana turtle managed to gain some advantage in the chase.  So much so that he was almost on the heels of the bandits.
 But he still lacked to reach them.
 -Damn it, he reaches us! ...- one of the subjects shouts in anguish to the others.
 Who were also getting tired of the race
 -... Al! ... What do we do ?! - The aforementioned thinks of a plan while they keep running. Until suddenly his face lights up with an idea.
 -¡Follow me! ...¡ I have an idea! -
 His henchmen listen to his orders and increase their speed to the maximum, managing to turn down a street.  To quickly hide in an alley.
 Thus disappearing from the sight of Michelangelo.  And thus they bought some time.
 -¿What do we do now? ...- one of the subjects asked while wiping the sweat from his forehead -... no one should know where the lair is-
 - Yeah ... X will kill us if we take him there ... Or if we arrive empty-handed-
 -Okey ... listen ... we will is do this- he says between gasps of fatigue from the previous race -... one of us will have to distract him so that the others can go to the base with the merchandise .... He will amuse him, over time  enough for us to escape your sight, ¿understand? -
 -Well, and who will be the cannon fodder? -
 Three of the subjects go into pensative mode, trying to choose the subject.
 -Hey, why don't we send the brat? ... At least he could do something so simple ... Right? -
 The aforementioned is exalted by the looks of the three subjects, directed at him. They had already decided who they would send as bait, and he did not like that.
 He could only give a slight sigh at that command.
 -Okay - discouragedly lowers his shoulders.  He hated those kinds of jobs, but he had no other choice.
 ••••••••••••••
 Mikey came to a crossroads, that was completely empty.  Surely because most of the inhabitants were in the market at that time.
 While regulating his breathing for the previous race. He try to hear some noise.
 -They couldn't go that far-
 He affirms himself, trying to carefully observe his surroundings.  Looking for any clue that will lead you to your objectives.
 They weren't fast, enough to get away.  They must still be in that area.
 He was watching the rooftops, until he heard the sound of footsteps behind him.
 By directing his eyes to the source of that sound, he managed to capture one of the subjects, who had a long protruding tail. And when he saw it, he instantly began to run through one of the streets of the intersection.
 -Stop there!-
 He quickly starts the chase again to go after that subject, leaving the place.
 And at the same time, he letting the other criminals sneak away, away from that place.
Again he was running, but this time only after one of them.  That compared to the others, this ran with less difficulty through the passages of the city.  As if he knew them from head to toe.
 The subject, once in while he looked over his shoulder.  A making sure it was still running after him.
 To later show his tongue, with the intention of provoking him.
 That did nothing but anger him
 -Stop right now!- He says already very irritated, not being able to reach it.
 At some point he realized that they were on a street that he knew.
 And that the subject he was, chasing had entered an alley. The which, if I remembered correctly, had no way out.
 There was no way he could escape.
 -You're mine, lizard boy- he says drawing a malicious smile, for his assured victory.
 But as he turned the corner, ready to catch the fugitive, he could only see the empty alley. He could not believe it.
 The subject had disappeared.
 He had no time to analyze what had just happened.  Because he found him climbing the wall like a spider.
 -But ... ¡¿what ?!- he yells more than disconcerted by that scene.
 While, the boy reaches the top of the wall.  Already more than out of reach.
 After this he gives a buffoonish look to him, from his place.
 -Goodbye dwarf, good luck next time! - he says to later, laughing, disappear from his sight.
 I was not going to let him.  If he didn't catch one of them, Leo would prove his point, and he wouldn't leave him alone for a whole week for it.
 -Oh, you won't! -
 More than determined, he looks for a way to climb to the top.
 Observing the area, he get see the balconies of a building.  That they were conveniently close to the wall.
 He quickly climbs , until he manages to pass the wall.
 This time the chase continued on the rooftops.  That they were of a different structure than New York, and it was more difficult to run on them.
 Soon Mikey tried to catch the subject with one of his nunchucks.  But this one soon notices that movement, and jumps to avoid it.
 -I see you don't give up easily- says the subject without stopping running.
 -When it comes to doing justice, rest assured that I will not do it- he says with a determined look.
-Well, we'll see if you continue with that attitude after this-
Then the hooded man throws a pile of marbles after him.  Causing Michelangelo to slip into a house window.
 A loud roar is heard within it.  Followed by screams of people.
 -What the hell?!  Get out of my kitchen !! - shouts an angry man, inside the house.
 -Ha, silly boy- the lizard smirks at getting rid of his pursuer.
 But his happiness lasts very little when he is surprised by the boy.  Appearing in front of him, wearing saucepan on his head, like helmet.
 -Now is my turn!-
 Mikey gives a smile, to later throw the saucepan like a frisbee towards the subject.
 Taking a clean hit in the face of this one.
 And causing it to fall from the roof, towards a pile of sheets, in a cart located in the street.
 Mikey gets off the roof and walks towards the sidewalk. To finally, being able to catch the subject.  But he is suddenly blinded by a sheet shot by the boy.
 -Aghh! -
 -See ya, child! -
 While the turtle tried to remove the huge sheet from himself, the boy took advantage of running away again.  With the stolen mirror in his hands.
 Mikey was already getting tired.  The subject did not want to stop for anything in the world, and the truth is that he was already losing strength.
 It wasn't like catching a typical human thief.  He was a slippery, fast guy ... And he climbed walls like spider man.
 This was already ridiculous.
 They climbed back to the rooftops, and it seemed like this would never end.  Well, until the thief ran out of roofs to run on.
 They arrived in a really high area, on the roof of a house in very bad condition, that seemed not to have been inhabited in years.
 He had no way to escape.
 -Okey bro, give me that mirror ...- Michelangelo says approaching the hooded man, while turning one of his nunchucks -... You no longer have an escape-
 -So you think?-
 Subject takes a very long chain out of his pocket.  And Mikey goes on alert, and prepares for any attack.
 But in a second he is totally confused when the subject throw the end of the chain towards the sky. Achieving tangled in the leg of one ofthe many flying creatures (more specifically a kind of dragon).
 -Goodbye, silly child!- He says, saying goodbye with a mocking laugh.
 Mikey couldn't even defend himself from that insult.  Since in a few seconds the subject was already suspended in the air. Being carried by the flying reptile.
 -WHAT?! ...IS SERIOUSLY?!!-
 The totally irritated little turtle can only stomp on the roof. To vent his impotence to achieve it.
 But his fury disappears after hearing a slight crack, where he was standing. To later feel how it breaks, causing it to fall into the old house.
 ••••••••••••••
About one hour passed from the previous chase.  And the reptilian boy a long time ago left the dragon express, to be able to find his companions.  But he was really getting tired of running.
 For nothing in the world could he let that boy catch up with him.
 This already exhausted, decides to hide in a secret place, which he usually visits on several occasions.  Where it was very little crowded, and where he knew he could rest, without fear of the mirror being taken away.
 Upon reaching his safe zone, he could only sigh of relief.  He was out of the woods now.
 -Finally ...- he says while checking that indeed he was no longer persecuted -... I lost him-
 Already calmer, he began to walk towards his hiding place.  Which was one of the many tunnels on an abandoned pedestrian walkway.
 Which the seemed like a long time ago it wasn't visited.  Most likely because it is a further from the city center, and not very attractive to tourists.
 -That dwarf was very hard to get rid of.... Is he a ninja? ...- He talks to himself, as he enters a tunnel.
 -... I don't even know where the others went anymore - He checks his jacket pocket, pulling a device out of it.  To then review it.
 -And to top off, my communicator ran out of battery ... This is perfect-
 He was on his until he noticed a peculiar smell.  Like melted cheese, tomato sauce, oregano, and other seasonings.
 He quickly realize that this smell is coming from above him.  And when he fixes his gaze on the roof of the tunnel, he is totally paralyzed by what he sees.
 -¿What the-
 -I got you now, lizard boy-
 Mikey says, while giving him a malicious smile that manages to make him uncomfortable.
 He had no idea how the turtle had gotten there before him. Or how he found it.
-Damn it- He says, whit his eyes widened when he sees his pursuer in that place.
 He quickly chooses to escape from that place.  But his escape is sabotaged when Mikey drop on top of him, leaving him with no chance to move.
 The mirror slips from his hands. And these are immobilized by the strong grip of Michelangelo.
 -It was enough dude, return that mirror right now-
 -Get off me -
 The discussion that was his about to take, was interrupted after the shock they received from the mirror. That crashes in front of them.
 It burst into a thousand pieces, then released a strange glowing smoke.
 -Agh! ... Great! ...-
 The hooded man quickly removes the little turtle from his back in a second.  And he quickly stands up, facing Mikey, with noticeable anger.
 -... Look what you did, now I'll have to find another- he says angrily, pointing to the broken object.
 -Well deserved you have it ...- Michelangelo gets up to face the boy, who was on the defensive -... Stealing is a bad, boy-
 -I gonna show you what's is wrong, if you don't get out right now-
 The reptilian boy takes the kusari fundo out of the pocket of his jacket, again. To later give a threatening gesture, making the chain thunder with his hands.
 That restless a bit to Michelangelo
 He had no plans to seriously fight the boy.  He just wanted the other to return the mirror peaceably. And he wasn't in the best shape to fight.
 -H-Hey calm down, I don't want to fight with-
 -GET OUT !! -
 Suddenly he is attacked by the enraged hooded man, who tried to hit him with the kusari, moving it from side to side.
 -Leave me alone! ... that old man had mirrors to spare, I don't see any problem with taking one out of the hundreds he has-
 The boy pauses briefly with his movement.  He was really exhausted from the previous race.
 -That's still theft ... and the least you can do is pay for it-
 -SHUT UP!!-
 Mikey manages to dodge the strong blow of the weapon, jumping away from the subject.
 It already gave him enough time to peacefully redeem himself.  And he wasn't about to take a beating that night.
 -Okey bro, I tried to do it on the easy side ...but you won't leave me another -
 Mikey quickly unsheathes his nunchucks, to start spinning them.  Ready to attack.
 -You will regret facing me, dwarf- says the hooded boy, while giving a mocking smile.
 -I will show you what this dwarf can do- full of determination he gives her a smile.
 -We'll see that!-
 At that moment the conversation ends, To start the fight.
 Which started in an exciting way, to finish faster, than Michelangelo had in mind.
 Ironically, the hooded boy ended up being defeated with his own weapon.  Receiving a strong blow, from the weight of the kusari, falling unconscious
 -Emm ... so ... I win? - is the only thing Mikey could say after that fact.
 He had to accept that this situation had not happened to him before.  He didn't know how to react to that.
 He concluded that what the boy had in speed, he lacked in strength.
This one was knocked down so easily, that he couldn't help but feel bad about him. It was more than evident that this subject was more about words, than actions.
 -Hey boy ... are you okay? -
 He ask the boy lying on the floor.  Without receiving a response from him.
 He was concerned not seeing any reaction from the other.  He didn't even seem to breathe.
 He couldn't be dead ...
 ...Right?...
    ...¡¿RIGHT?!
  That self-question scared him.  The boy could very well have died with such a strong blow to his head.
 In that instant the guilt fell on him.
 I didn't want to hurt him ... MUCH LESS KILL HIM.
 He quickly proceeds to help him.  Removing the heavy kurari from his head, and shaking his back to wake him up.
 -H-Hey dude, wake up ... Open your eyes! -
 He began to sweat cold when he saw that not even shaking him there was a reaction.
 He couldn't believe it ... He didn't want to accept it ... He was too young to die.
 -DO NOT GO TO THE LIGHT!!-
 Soon you can notice how the boy slowly opens his eyes.  He still looked dazed, but at least he was alive.  And that reassured him.
 -How good ... you wake up- I couldn't be happier that he opened his eyes -... thanks to—
 He is quickly silent, being thrown to the ground by the reptile's long tail. Banging his head on the cold concrete.
 -Agh! ... What's wrong with you?  I just wanted to help you- Mikey says from his place.  Rubbing his freshly beaten head.
 -¡¿Help me?! .. ¡You gave me a hit that almost killed me! -
 -You gave it to yourself-
 The hooded boy again tries to hit the turtle.  With more fury than the previous one.
 But once again, Michelangelo was able to dodge it. Being he on the edge of the balcony, and away from the subject.
 -I've had enough of you, what happened before was just a little slip ...-
 The boy prepares by getting back into his fighting pose.  With a malicious gaze directed at his target
 -... this time I not gonna be gentle-
 -That's how I like it-
 Michelangelo responds in the same way as the boy.  Preparing his fists to attack, and forming a grin of determination.
 He was so focused on the one in front of him that he didn't realize a crack was getting bigger on the edge he was stepping on.
 -Give me the best you have, lizard boy! -
 The boy was about to attack him.  But he is paralyzed when he sees the place where the turtle was standing.
 -WATCH OUT!!-
 That scream he received from the one in front of him baffled him.
 He barely had time to think, until he saw himself falling from that tall and steep place.
 The edge shattered.
 That explained the large number of danger tapes that were all around the place.
 That pedestrian walk was practically falling apart.
 He was falling into the void.  And he did not have his nunchucks to prevent the fall.
 Most likely he left them on the ground when he was checking on the lizard boy.
 He had no salvation.
 His life passed before his eyes in a second.
  His father ... his brothers ... his friends ...
 He couldn't even say goodbye to them.
  He could not believe it
  He couldn't accept it.
  He didn't want to accept it!
 He didn't want to end in such an absurd way!
  HE DIDN'T WANT TO DIE LIKE THIS !!
 He could only close his eyes tightly.  Hoping that when his body hit the ground, he didn't feel so much pain.
 Already ending.
 But his fear was immediately removed.  Left in place the total bewilderment.
 By now it must have hit the ground.  And to have passed to the world of the spirits.
 But by slowly opening his eyes.  He realized that it was still suspended in the air.
 How could that be possible?
 He directed his gaze to his outstretched arm towards the sky.  Noticing that he was being held by the dark chain of the boy's kusari.
 Quickly the other boy begins to pull it.  Little by little go up the young turtle.
 The tension of the chain began to manifest itself on his forearm.  Causing him pain as he felt it tighten.  But he preferred that a thousand times, than having a gruesome death crashing to the ground.
 He couldn't help but shed tears of pain and relief when he was finally safe on the pedestrian walk again.
 That situation had really scared him.  And he could not believe that the subject who a few moments ago wanted to attack him, had saved him from one more than assured death.
 -Thank you ... but ... ¿Why you-
 He is quickly silenced by the absence of his unusual savior.
 -Lizard boy? -
 Michelangelo quickly stands up to look for the reptilian boy that a few seconds ago was in front of him.
 -Where are you?!-
 He immediately finds it at the top of the wall, that separated the street from the viewpoint.          
 He looked at him over his shoulder.
 -H-Hey..¿Why did you-
 -Don't bother me again, brat- says the reptile boy, while he turns around avoiding having eye contact with the turtle.
 To then prepare to start your journey.
 -¡W-Wait! ... ¡You forgot your...... kusari-
 He couldn't finish saying what he wanted.  Well, the boy had already left the place.
 He was really confused.
 ¿Why did the guy who tried to hit him on several occasions save him from falling off the cliff?
 It was really very strange what had just happened.
 He, being calmer, of everything that had just happened, proceeded to remove the chain that was tightly tightening his arm.
 Slowly he unwrapped it, revealing some, not very pleasing to the eye, marks on his skin.
 I really preferred those bruises, than having had that horrible final destination.
 Once he wrapped the boy's kusari fundo.  He proceeded to collect his weapons.
 Along with them he found a kind of mobile phone.  That the screen was completely smashed.
 At once he guessed it was from the lizard boy.
 He was admiring the object until he managed to make out a voice calling him from a distance.
 -Mikey! ... I finally found you! -
 -Leo? -
 He aforementioned, quickly goes down where his little brother was.  He looked totally exhausted and angry.
 You could tell right away that he had an intense career.
 Michelangelo was so focused noting his tired appearance, that he did not realize, when he was already grabbing his shoulders.
 -Y-you .... ¡¿WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?! -
 -Eh I-
 -How can you go after those criminals?! .... they could have hurt you! -
 -¿What happened to you, Leo?- He asks, surprised with the exhausted and dirty appearance of his older brother.
 -An angry crowd tried to capture me for hours ... but that's not the important thing now! - He answers angrily when he sees that the minor wanted to change the subject.
 -¿For hours?- The youngest questioned, while the older one kept scolding him.
 -¡Yes! ... ¡And don't change the subject! ... Don't go chasing crooks alone again! ... It's dangerous! ... Did you hear me ?! -
 -¿And you didn't use your swords to teleport?-
 The one in blue stopped yelling at him, to think about what the minor had just said.
 If he hadn't been so tired.  He would have slapped himself in the face, not realizing that he could easily have escaped like that.
 He just gives a deep sigh of annoyance, in surrender.
 Whatever ... let's go home right now-
 He says, to start his journey.  Followed by the minor.
 -From now on I will go to do Drax's orders-
 Mikey just kept following his brother in total silence.  He was still somewhat stunned by everything that had just happened.
 He just wondered why that boy had helped him.  If he had clear intentions to finish him off.
 And because when I look into his eyes  He felt that it was hiding something.
 That really ... was weirder than normal.
