It's been a week and while that day was nice and relaxing it did not make Raph at all okay while he would sit there on the rocks by a stream trying to get all in his head back but it was not helping at all as if he was actually forget about his Lord leo that made him more moodier than normal. So today he signed and stood up cleaning his clothes then started walking back to his home with his step father but while he walked he would hear everywhere around him while stopping on the grass hearing his own steps but as the sun was on to his skin he got his hand out to the light of the sun then looking up seeing the trees leafs fall and move from its own bratches that they grow on. 

Raph kept looking up with his hand out still till he would hear as if fast movement while he snapped out of his own thoughts and looked to his left getting out his sai’s from his sides getting into the position to get ready for an attack while he yelled from not seeing anyone around. “ Who is there!”

No answer so he started looking around some more getting his sai’s low to his sides but still holding them while he would hear something from behind himself so he turned fast getting his sai’s right at the person neck but stopped as the person  looked badly beaten with blood and out of breath but then his eyes widened and lowered his weapons as he noticed the man's bloody clothes. “ You're from Lord Leo’s temple… what are you doing here?”

The man took a second as he went on his knees and got his hand before himself and bowed his head surprising Raph but when the man spoke his heart then deeply down to the ground. “ I was sent by our Lord… we were under attack and we need you here… they secretly snuck me out to search for you…”

“ How long have you been searching for me?” he didn't want to be scared of hearing Leo hurt or gone from this world. “ two days after you left...”

Raph instantly dropped his sai’s as the guy saw them there to the grass as he would look right up to Raph seeing his face reaction as it was instantly blanked but then tears came to his eyes but he instantly grabbed the man's shoulders tightly while saying out this time showing fear to his face. “ Leo! Is he okay!”

“ he was injured from their sneak attack… I don't know how he is now… but our attackers are targeting our Lord. “ Raph felt his chest hurt badly as he let the man's shoulders go, getting his left hand to his chest breathing hard. ‘ Why am I like this… Leo doesn't love me… just using me but… why do I feel the need to run back and protect him…it's like I truly love him...’

He heard more footsteps as he looked around as he would see out of nowhere five men around them as Raph gripped his hand looking at them all. “ we were sent to prevent you from getting back to your Lord's temple!”

Raph looked to them all as he would stand into a position with his hands out as well his legs separated while he waited for one of then to move while the one to his right slight back side went first while he turned his head fast moving his back front to bend down and as well his other getting down while the man has a sword and missed but Raph then get both hands to the floor and got his foot up fast knocking gone of his legs then got to his two feet and grabbed the man's hands that was holding the swords handle. Raph stood up quickly and gave him a very serious and pissed look while he would get himself to ram his head to the mans knocking him out hard as he fell to the ground and Raph had the man's Sword looking to the rest of them while they moved next to each other looking unsettled by how fast he did that with one of their man. “ Are you going to get in my way from going to my Lord?”

None of them spoke as they looked scared and shaking because Raph was tired and always confused with everything but right now at this moment he was realizing that he was in love with his Lord and he was not going to be away from him any more as well these men that stood in the way he then turned as his whole body was facing them and swing his arm out with the sword and lets it go landing right between them and Raph as they looked confused at why he through the weapon at them. “ run or face what he faces.”
