Don was sitting on the couch with Mikey playing one of his old school Pac Man games. Games were not Don's first choice for activities for the night but he could sense a fight brewing between his two older brothers and he wanted to be close enough to diffuse a fight if there was one but far enough away that he hopefully wouldn't be dragged into it.

"Raph I already told you. You can't go topside tonight," Leo told his brother angrily. "Our enemies have stepped up their own patrols and it's too dangerous."

"I don't recall asking your permission to go for a drive," Raph shot back as he stalked across the living room and towards the elevator. "They expect to see us on the roofs Leo, not driving around in the streets around other humans."

Leo wasn't about to just give up that easily. Picking up his pace he managed to catch up with Raph and grab onto his arm. This caused Raph to finally stop but it wasn't a permanent solution. While Leo may have been the master in the dojo it was Raph who was the one with the most experience with street fighting in close quarters.

With a quick twist and upper cut to Leo's shoulder causing his arm to go numb, Raph wrenched himself away and made it onto the elevator. Before Leo could try going after him again Don intervened and blocked Leo's path.

"Just wait a minute Leo," Don calmly told him.

"Don you know why I want him to stay in tonight," Leo pressed on. "It's too dangerous with so many enemies roaming around topside."

"I know that," Don responded. "That's why I sabotaged both of our bikes and the Battle shell so he can't go anywhere."

The words had barely left Don's mouth when the elevator doors opened again and Raph came storming out of them. Angrily he brushed past Don and shoved a finger into Leo's chest.

"You smug, arrogant, bastard," Raph snarled. "Ordering me to stay home isn't good enough for you. You actually went up and messed with my bike. I swear if you damaged it in any way you're gonna be in a world of hurt."

This was exactly what Don had feared would happen and he quickly worked his way between his brothers before things could get even more out of hand.

"Leo didn't touch your bike Raph," Don interjected. "I did."

The look of hurt and betrayal that flashed across Raph's face cut Don deep. He knew that he had done what he needed to do to protect his mate but that didn't mean that he wanted to hurt him.

"So you're siding with Leo now are you," Raph snapped. "Fine! See if I care!"

Raph didn't waste any more time before spinning on his heels and storming upstairs to the bedroom. Don flinched when the door slammed closed behind Raph.

Slowly Mikey walked over and wrapped him arms around Don's shoulders. "You okay Donnie?" Mikey asked softly.

"Not really," Don answered.

Quietly Don pulled away from Mikey's hold and made his way to his lab. He had a cot in there that he could sleep on since he got the feeling he wasn't completely welcome upstairs. Tomorrow he would talk to Raph and work things out with him.

Well, when the danger is too high, I wouldn't blame him for doing it. Don has the same kind of thinkings as Leo at times.
