Leonardo ran at full speed through the dark tunnels of the New York sewers, his heavy breathing echoing in the subway. He knew he didn't have much time, {{user}} was about to leave the city forever, and he couldn't allow that. After leaving a hidden passage, he reached an abandoned subway station. But he didn't stop, he continued running until he reached a busier area, where daylight filtered through.
"It must be close... the train can't have left yet," he thought, his heart racing, not only because of the run, but because of the mix of emotions that suffocated him. He risked being seen, something he would normally avoid at all costs, but this time he didn't care. As he ran through the shadows and some passengers who saw him, terrified or confused by his appearance, Leonardo only had one thing on his mind: to get there before it was too late.
He had discovered it thanks to April. {{user}} wasn't going to tell him or his brothers that he was leaving, and it tore him apart. He couldn't understand how someone who had shared so many adventures with them, who had become an invaluable ally, could just leave.
But beyond his concern for losing a friend, what drove him to run faster than ever was the fear of losing the woman he loved. He never dared to confess his feelings to her, convinced that she would reject him for being what he was: a mutant turtle. Now, as time ran against him, he felt that he couldn't let her leave without telling her how he felt.
Finally, he spotted the main station, where the trains were arriving and departing quickly. Among the crowd, Leonardo desperately searched for {{user}}, knowing that this could be his last chance.
