Chapter five:  Telling a story

Few hours crawled slowly over the night and Leo still hasn’t fallen asleep yet. Normally, he would blame his insomnia for another sleepless night, but this time it was his dragon instinct begging him to go out and change.

Ever since his brothers found out that he tends to hang out in the sewers during daytime, they started to patrol the sewers as well. Forcing him to skip a few days to change into his dragon form. Those days are the hardest as his instinct starts to come out and show even when he is in his normal form.

Leo slapped his hand in his face as the feeling to change kept nagging him. “Just for an hour.” He mumbled to himself.

Leo stood up and pulled his curtain away. He listened quietly for any sound of his brothers. Besides Raph’s loud snoring, he didn’t hear anything.

Leo sneaked quietly out of the lair into the sewers. Leo made sure he was a bit further away from the lair, until he changed into his dragon form. ‘Okay, this feels good.’ Leo thought as he made satisfying noises while stretching out.

“So the rumors are true.” A voice said behind Leo. Leo immediately stopped stretching and turned around.

Right behind him was his dad, Splinter. “The dragon does live in the sewers.” Splinters said, moving into a fighting position.

‘Dad!’ Leo thought and started looking for an escape route.  “Don’t even think about escaping.” Splinter warned as if he could read Leo’s mind. “Now, let’s begin.” With that, Splinter jumped into the air, attacking Leo from above.

Leo avoid the attack and kept avoiding the punches his dad threw him. “You know, you remind me of my son, Blue.” Splinter said as he kept attacking. “He has almost the same markings and wears a blue bandana around his face, not his neck. Same goes for the blue slash with pouches.”

‘Oh crap! He’s on to me!” Leo growled when a punched landed in his face. Splinter smirked. “Did I distract you with something?”

Splinter threw a other punch, but his hand was caught with a green red and yellow marked tail. Leo gave Splinter a toothy grin before throwing the rat further back in the sewers. Splinter landed on his paws and looked up. He saw Leo slightly bend on his front paws, ready to attack.

Splinter smiled. “Let’s dance.” Splinter let out a war cry, storming towards the dragon. Leo roared before attacking too.

Leo tried hitting Splinter with his tail again, but was failing as Splinter jumped away and threw some ropes towards Leo.

It was Leo’s turned to jump away. Attack his dad again, Leo still was looking for to escape.  After a while Leo was standing in a web of ropes. Splinter pulled on one of them and the ropes moved quickly towards Leo, trapping him down on the ground.

Leo growled and tried to get free, biting the ropes. Splinter threw another rope, muzzling Leo and being completely trapped to the ground.

Leo sighed that came out as a long growl, but stopped as soon he saw his father right before him.

“You made it too easy for me.” Splinter said. “One of the first lessons I taught you was never get distracted by the enemy, Leonardo.” Splinter heart melted when he saw the fear in his sons eyes. He immediately cut the muzzle.

“D-Dad…I’m sorry.”  Leo said with a scratchy voice. “I know I should have told you guys, but it all happened so fast…I wanted to tell you, but….” Tears started to flow down Leo’s face. “thinking of what you guys will do when you find out or even disowning me…”

Splinter grabbed his son into a tight hug. “I never will disown you. I will love you in either form,  turtle or dragon, because you are my son. I’m only disappointed you never told me.” Splinter said as he untied the ropes with his tail.

Releasing his son from the hug and looking up as Leonardo went sitting straight up, Splinter whipped the last few tears off his son’s face. “Let’s go back home.”

“I can’t.” Splinter raised an eyebrow. “I need to let is loose for a while. Otherwise I can’t keep it contained.”

Splinter nodded. “Fine. Do what you need to do, but be back in a hour. We’ll discuss this tomorrow when your brother are gone.”

Leo nodded and quickly flew away from his father. Splinter sighed before returning back to the lair.

After a hour and a half Splinter walked to Leo’s room. He smiled when he saw his blue bandana son was back in bed, in turtle form, fast asleep. Splinter walked into Leo’s room and draped the covers over Leo, before planting a small kiss on his head. “Goodnight, my son.”

The next morning everything was everything normal. Or at least almost everything.  When Splinters is around Leo, he acts a bit weird. Besides April, who immediately noticed this, no one reacted on it.

“He knows.” Leo had whispered to her when he had the chance.

“When did he find out?” April asked in a hushed voice.

“Last night, he wants to talk about it when the others are gone.”

--

“So who’s ready for tonight’s WWE’s tournament?!” Raph said pumped.

“Yay!” Mike said happy. “You coming too, Leo?”

“Blue still has to do the task he hasn’t done yet.” Splinter answered before even Leo could answer. Leo knew it was a lie as the only thing he has to do is sort the dirty clothes and put in the washer.

“I’d told you should go and do the laundry.” Donnie said to his blue brother.

“And let you destroy my high score on ninja revolution 3? Never!”

“Let’s go guys.” Raph said, walking towards the exit of the lair.

“Have fun with the laundry, Leo! Bye April, see you tomorrow.” Mikey waved before following Donnie and Raph.

“Have fun you guys!” April waved.

Leo watched his brother go before going to the laundry room and sort the clothes out. “So, how did Splinter find out?”

“He followed me into the sewers, fought me, tied me up before telling he knew.”

“Wait, your dad kicked your dragon ass?” April grinned at her best friend.

Leo shoved April as she started laughing. “I wasn’t focused! Besides I didn’t want to hurt him!”

“Whatever you say, Leon.”

--

Entering the kitchen, April and Leo saw Splinter with three cup of tea standing ready. The rat motioned to sit down. “Now,” Splinter said when the teens sat down. “Tell me everything.”

Leo took a deep breath. “I was around eight when my first transformation happened. I was not feeling well and I didn’t want to wake you guys up. So, I ran into the sewers and that’s when I changed.  I was freaking out and I didn’t know how to control it or what just happened to me. I wanted to tell you after I was sure I could control it. But as time goes on, I wasn’t sure if you would believe me. If you still would accept me for what I am.”

Leo wrapped his hands around the cup of tea, not facing anyone. “As the years passed, I didn’t had the courage to tell you anymore. So I kept it a secret from everyone until April found out about it a month a half ago.”

April nodded in agreement. Splinter sat quietly, thinking about the new information he was told. “I have to change every day just to keep my dragon side contained. Which is getting harder ever since the others started hunting me.”

“What was the longest time you didn’t change?” April asked.

“Three day was the longest.” Leo answered.  

Splinter took a slip from his tea before speaking. “I understand why you kept this as a secret and why you still don’t want to tell your brothers. But know this, I will never disown you for what you are, Leonardo. Same goes for your brothers. I know you can smell my fear right now, it will fade over time. And they will need time when they will find out.”

Leo nodded. He smelled his dad’s fear since he got up this morning. It wasn’t that bad, but worse than when April learned what he was. “You’re not going to tell them?” Leo asked.

“No.” Splinter replied. “They either will have to find out on their own  or when you’re ready to tell them.”

Leo nodded, silently thanking his dad for not forcing him to tell his brothers. “How did you find out?”

“I started to observe you when you said  you never encounter the dragon in the sewers. Then I noticed the growling, the predator walking and the disappearing for no reasons. And I’d saw Purple’s notes. Your name was written a few times on it.” Splinter explained. “Now that your brothers are gone, I’d suggest you change and have some fun. But avoid the south part of the city.”

“Yes! Let’s go Leo!” April said excited. “I’ve got a new saddle I want to try out.”

“Another one? You call a backpack with stuffing a saddle?” Leo asked as he pulled his leg and arm gloves off.

“Hey, it’s better than the horse saddle.”

Splinter chuckled, but stopped and stared as Leo started to change into his dragon form in front of him for the first time. Leo didn’t look at his dad as the fear smell hit his nose hard. ‘Give it time, it will go away.’ Leo thought as he let April place the backpack on him.

April jumped on him and tested the saddle out. “Perfect! Giddy up, Dragon.” Leo gave April a look before walking out of the lair.
