Donnie and Raph carry Leo into the lab and place him on the cot. Mikey watches in concern.

"It's going to be alright Leo I'm just gonna patch up the wound" Donnie said.

Raph growls before turning to Mikey in anger.

"This all your fault Mikey !" Raph snares.

"Raph don't!" Donnie warns.

"If it wasn't for you Leo wouldn't got stabbed!" Raph snares.

"It wasn't my fault!" Mikey shouts.

"Yes it was ! Your just a pathetic baby that always needs saving!" Raph snares.

Mikey let's these words sink in and becomes angry. He felt his hand turn into a fist. Then Mikey punches Raph in the face. Raph falls to the ground. Mikey gets ontop of Raph and begins to repeatedly punch him in the face. Tears stream down Mikey's face as he wails on Raph.

"Mikey stop!" Donnie shouts.

But Mikey couldn't hear Donnie as he punches Raph. Suddenly a comforting hand is place on Mikey's shoulder. Mikey stops and sees Master Splinter.

"My son" Splinter said calmly.

"Dad ! I..I..I" Mikey said as he didn't know what came over him.

"It's okay my son, please come with me" Splinter said as he offers his hand to Mikey which he takes.

Splinter and Mikey exit the lab and go into the dojo.

Raph stands up and Donnie sees that he had a black eye.

"He's crazy !" Raph snares.

"Well can you blame him for snapping you bully Mikey all the time !" Donnie said.

"I don't regret what I said! Mikey needed to hear that!" Raph said.

"I think you pushed him too far this time" Donnie said.

"Whatever" Raph said.
**************************************
Mikey sits across Splinter as he pours some tea into cups.

"I don't know what came over me" Mikey said.

"I seen Raph push you and push you I knew you were going to reach your boiling point" Splinter said.

"What he said to me it just made me angry, his words hurt me and he blamed me for Leo getting hurt" Mikey said.

"I know how you feel my son" Splinter said.

"But you were never bullied Dad you don't know what's it's like" Mikey said.

Splinter puts down his tea and looks at Mikey.

"I actually do my son. When I was a child I was bullied by the local village kids. They would beat me up every day" Splinter explains sadly.

"What did you do ?" Mikey asked.

"I let it happened every day until one time the bullies mocked me about my sick mother and I got angry because the words hurt me so I beat them up" Splinter explained.

"But they mocked you about your sick mom you had every right to be angry" Mikey said.

"Yes that's correct I had every right to be angry but I could of let the words wash off me like water" Splinter said.

"But Dad words hurt" Mikey said.

"Yes they hurt like a knife" Splinter said.

"So you do understand me ?" Mikey asked.

"Yes I do, You remind me alot like me when I was your age" Splinter said with a smile.

Mikey smiles at Splinter.

"The best I can give you is to find your own path and discover your inner peace" Splinter said.

"Thanks dad" Mikey said.

"Remember our talk my son" Splinter said.

"I will" Mikey said as he walks out of the dojo.

Unknown to Splinter, Mikey had a plan of his own to find his path.
