Raph got up early the next morning, used to his strict schedule in the foot that demanded them up ridiculously early in the morning. He took his time exploring the lair and found a dojo. Having nothing better to do he started to do some basic katas with his sai, having to be careful as he tried to ignore the pain that still radiated from the mass Rape.

Donnie woke up not too long after, finding it strange to be sleeping in a bed alone again. He was used to sleeping on the floor, or the few times he'd slept next to Leo. Thinking about his, former Master? Made him have the desire to go and check on him, making a quick breakfast before taking it and a first aid box into the spare room with him.

Leo had awoken soon after Raph, finding that he couldn't get up and he couldn't go back to sleep, he stared with empty eyes at the ceiling above him.

Donnie hadn't expected Leo to be awake and didn't notice he was until he was already kneeling besides him. "Leo? How are you feeling?" He placed the food and medical supplies down to one side as he leant over to check Leo‘s bandages.

Leo didn't bother answering. How did he THINK he felt? He didn't want to talk to any of these people either way. In his eyes they were all traitors.

Donnie felt guilty for forcing Leo to come with them. In effect he'd kidnapped the other turtle the same way that he'd been kidnapped, but.... it was for Leo‘s own good. He gently started to change to bandages. "I'm sorry..."

Leo's mouth formed a tight line, and suddenly he grabbed Don's wrist. "Don't. I'll change them myself from now on."

"Your too weak." Don said, somehow sounding both stern and unsure. He wanted to make sure Leo was taken care of.

"I'm strong enough to do this. I don't want your help."

"I'm sorry Mas...Leo" Donnie sighed, pulling his hand back with a sad look. Leo had said that he might be too disgusted with Donnie to even want to even see him again after he'd been raped by shredder, that pain still clearly in Dons mind as he looked away from the injured turtle.

Slowly, Leo sat up, his face twisting into a pained frown. His hand were shaking violently when he tried to change his bandages.

"Please. Let me help you." Donnie pleaded, helping Leo sit up and offering him pain killers.

"I told you I don't want your help!" Leo growled, slapping Don's hand away along with the pain killers. "The least you could have done was to leave me!"

"I didn't want you to go through the same thing I did!" Donnie snapped in a uncharacteristic wave of anger. He was only trying to protect Leo from the man who'd raped the olive turtle and staged a mass rape towards Leo. 

Almost as soon as he'd snapped out Donnie flushed pale, he didn't want to think about his rape. "Sorry..."

"It doesn't matter now." Leo said, suddenly all burned out. "We're all doomed anyway." He lay back down, leaving his bandages sloppily draped around his body.

Donnie slowly and carefully started to work on the bandages again,   not letting Leo leave them like that. "I'm sorry..." He repeated quietly. "You said you'd help us get back home.." He reminded Leo. "I just... I didn't want to leave you there to get abused... and your brother wouldn't leave you."

"I would have, but this was the worst way to do so." He sighed deeply, turning his head away from Don again.

"I told Mikey we should wait awhile.... but your brother.." He tried to explain, knowing that he'd pissed off his own brother by not trying to escape before Raph had burst in, not really given them a choice.

Leo didn't answer him for a while, thinking these words through. It probably was Raphael's fault entirely. Michelangelo is a fool and Donatello wouldn't leave him, but still it bothered him to accept none of them were at fault because that wasn't true. "I just... need to be alone." He said finally. He needed to figure this out, what his next step should be.

Donnie finished wrapping the bandages in silence, feeling terrible for taking Leo from the foot even though it saved him from being abused. 

"At least... take some pain killers and try and eat something?" Donnie requested, sounding guilty and slightly upset.

Hearing the tone in Don's voice made him glance at him, seeing the expression on his lover's face made him soften. He reached out, stroking Don's cheek. "Alright."

Donnie placed his hand over Leo‘s own and nuzzled into it like he'd done before, giving him a sad smile. "Thank you." Maybe Leo didn't find him disgusting after all?

He smiled slightly. "Come here." Cupping Don's chin, he pulled him down to kiss him softly.

Donnie closed his eyes and opened his mouth automatically to let Leo dominate the kiss, happy that his lover wasn't repulsed by him like he'd feared.

Leo moved his tongue inside Don's mouth, his hand stroking Don's cheek down to his neck.

Donnie took his hand off the top of Leo‘s, using it to support himself as he hovered over the injured turtle, kissing back but not trying to take control. He let out a soft noise of appreciation as Leo stroked down his sensitive neck.

The other pulled away after a few seconds, pulling Don close and just holding him in his arms.

Donnie cuddled up to Leo, laying his head on he others plastron as he avoided any injuries.

"I'm sorry I put you through this." Leo said, brushing along the side of Don's head. "I've broken all my promises to you."

"No...." Donnie sighed, Leo hadn't broken any promises that Donnie couldn't understand and forgive him for.

"I have. But I'll make it up to you, that is my new promise. And I intend to keep that one."

"Don't...as soon as you get better you'll want to go back to...to him." Donnie couldn't say shredders name, he'd had nightmares about that man, what he'd done to him and what he'd planned to do to Leo...

"I have to." Leo said.

"I know." Donnie sighed, nuzzling Leo‘s plastron sadly, he didn't want Leo to go back possibly to his death.

Leo closed his eyes, continuing to stroke along Don softly.

Donnie kissed Leo‘s neck lightly as he cuddled close to him, feeling better just by being held by his once master.

Leo's mind drifted. He couldn't stay, not just because of his duty to his master, but because it was the only way to keep Don relatively safe. Sure, master Shredder would still be after them, but not as relentlessly if he had Raphael and Leonardo. Of course, Leo would have to find a way to get Raph to come with him, but two could play the kidnap-against-your-will-game.

Donnie only wanted to keep Leo safe, which he was sure he would be if he stayed down here with him and his family. Master Splinter seemed sympathetic towards them, as long as they followed the rules they would be able to move in. Raphael will be able to leave as soon as Don worked out the shock controller and collar signal, which Don will be glad of since he didn't trust the boisterous emerald turtle.

Eventually Leo reached for the glass of water and his pain killers, the throbbing in his wound becoming a bit bothersome.

Donnie helped him sit up to take his medication, wrapping an arm around his shell to help support him.

Leo accepted the help this time, downing his pill and drinking a bit of water. Then he ate some of the food Don had brought before he felt himself grow tired again.

"Go back to sleep if you need to master, you need your rest." Donnie didn't even realise that the title had slipped though, so used to calling Leo his master that it sometimes came more naturally than the others name.

"Thank you," Leo said, too tired and used to Don calling him that to really care. He closed his eyes, and it didn't take long for him to fall asleep.

Donnie stayed curled up next to Leo. He knew that Leo liked him to be there when he woke up, but he also felt more relaxed next to the other turtle. It didn't take long before he was also drifting off, laying with a hand and his head on Leo plastron.
