          Leonardo is the Family Doctor, he was the one who was most interested in learning Medicine from a very young age, starting when his twin brother Donnie fell into a Fever.

Concerned he learned all he could about this disease, as well as helping his father in the care of his twin, since then he knew that he had to learn more about this area.

When he had the internet in his hands, his research was deeper and deeper, he himself has notebooks full of notes on every possible disease, every allergy and every medicine along with its benefits and side effects.

Donnie was smart no doubt but Medical was not something he could have genuine interest in, he is more into engineering and robotics.

So Leo was alone in the field of care, he does not complain because it is something that he brings to his family.

He now he is at his desk reading his notes again, taking translucent sticky notes to mark. His notebooks were worn out and he had to pass the information on, as well as add new information.

Three years ago today he had done the same, because he had created this habit in order to be up-to-date. Each new notebook is smaller and smaller, because he had now memorized various illnesses, various treatments, that it was no longer necessary to write them down.

What at first were more than twenty notebooks are now only two.

— and~ Done!

I lengthen "and" to later put the pen aside from the notebook. He had spent the whole day writing non-stop, his brothers did not bother him because they knew the reason for his confinement that day.

He takes the notebooks from three years ago.

«I have to leave them in the box before they get more damaged»

He thought as he walked to his bed, bent down, left the notebooks on top of the furniture and lay down to take out a large box, opened it slowly and arranged the notebooks.

«I should get a wooden box or a trunk, again this box is breaking down and it barely has two years to change it»

He sighed as he closed the box again and put it in its place, no one besides him knew where he left that box. It was the most precious thing he has, he knows everything that is inside each notebook but he likes the memory of what he had to learn for the good of his family.

He goes to his desk again, takes his two new notebooks and leaves them on a shelf, yes, his entire room is a disaster, but he is a 12-year-old boy, no one can judge him, the rest that is thrown without knowing how hell every object gets there but those notebooks should be on that shelf no matter what.

«I'm hungry, I hope Mikey will finish the dinner, I don't want to go out with an empty stomach»

He wanders his thoughts as he walks out of his room, stretching his muscles as he walks in the direction of the kitchen.

When he arrives, he notices that his younger brother is finishing making orange water. For an 11-year-old boy, he is very good at cooking.

— Hi little brother, how are you doing?

He said smiling as he took a seat.

— Good! This time I made a new dish, a Risotto!

He exclaimed happily as he plated his new dish, when Leo had his plate he examined it.

— It's just rice, Angel.

He voiced the blue-band as he reached the conclusion of the saucer, but not long after a gasp was heard from the younger.

— It's not just rice, Risotto is one of the best-known and internationally appreciated dishes of Italian cuisine, just try it

Declares the youngest, that's when his two brothers arrived.

— Hi guys

Rapha's voice was still somewhat unstable since she was in the puberty stage so it was common to hear her deep or acute, even so her brothers would never make fun of that, since it is also natural that sooner or later they will also go through that.

«I hope that when my voice changes it will be overnight»

Leo mentally confessed as the others sat down, Donnie just waving distractedly on his cell phone.

Dinner continued normally, Leo regretted having said "Only Rice" to the incredible dish that his brother made, although he and the older ones still did not understand why it should be eaten with a fork.

At the end of dinner it was Donnie's turn to clean up, once that was finished the four of them were leaving, when Leo stopped them.

— Now what Nardo?

Donnie questions as his twin approaches a coat rack that was at the exit.

— Guys it's cold season, I don't want to be taking care of sick turtles

He answered the one with the blue band as he handed them their coats to each one.

— now, let's go

He added as he put on his, without much complaint because the others don't like being sick they put on their coats and get out of the sewer.

«Damn, the forecast did not say that the temperature was going to drop so much, this is below what was reported»

Think Leo, since he feels that the floor of the roofs is slippery due to the cold and humidity, he knows that his brothers would not notice, so as long as they are careful everything will be fine, although his concern quickly disappeared because he is a child, so When his brothers started playing on the rooftops, he followed them without fear.

Everything was going great now they were playing to make longer jumps.

— Check this out

Rapha exclaimed as he jumped to a lower building, spinning and landing in hero pose. The children applauded.

— Yeah… it's amazing but not as much as this

The one in Purple spoke while his battle shell flew off in the middle of both buildings, so he did two cartwheel jumps. Leo and Mikey clapped.

— woah! Donnie that shell is amazing!

I congratulate the eldest because it is the first time that Donnie's three brothers saw the performance of his new battle shell.

— Thanks Raph, I've been working on an improvement, although I still have to make it last longer on the air

He confessed as the battle shell was placed on his owner again.

— Very nice little brother but nothing will be able to with my genius!

Leo answered egocentric, took flight, beginning to do a choreography of maneuvers while he reached the corner of the building, he jumped backwards to reach the other building and ended up doing two more somersaults to stop the momentum.

— ¡Ta-da! 

He presumed receiving a round of applause from his three brothers.

— Nardo was good but don't let it go to your head that later because of the weight you won't even be able to get up

He said smiling sarcastically the one in purple, Leo snorts but then laughs.

— yes, yes whatever you say genius

The three older ones saw his younger brother

— You can achieve it Mikey shows what you have!

— Show Nardo that you are cooler!

— You can little brother!

Rapha, Donnie and Leo were encouraging the younger, Mikey grinned.

«Good Angel, you can do this, you've practiced it in the sewer, it's easy!»

The youngest analyzed and prepared for his jump as well as his brother Leo, he took off running.

He reaches the shore and the humidity makes him slip.

Everything happened so fast, Mikey falls from the building, his brothers watching, but only one managed to move the body. Mikey feels arms wrap around him.

— Get into your shell!

He hears the voice of one of his brothers, He obeys the instructions he is told, and then a horrible noise is heard.

— MIKEY! LEO!

Rapha yells hysterically because it was Leo who had thrown himself to cover Mikey from the fall from the fifth floor of the building.

— Let 's go quickly!

Donnie spoke in shock as the two went down to the ground, as they went down Mikey was coming out of his shell.

«owwww, my head....»

The youngest thought because he was stunned by the blow, his vision was blurry, he feels that the arms that surround him stopped having precision, his eyes focus and he sees Leo.

— Leo!

He screams in fear, overwhelmed seeing the horror, his brother Leo was unconscious with a split shell and wounds, as well as seeing blood, but he doesn't know from which wound exactly he is coming out.

— Brother?

He said in a whisper as he moved his older brother, Leo didn't respond, Mikey starts to shake.

— Leo! Leo! Wake up! Wake up, please!

His voice was getting more exalted, his eyes were watery, he couldn't stop seeing that scene, until someone blocked his view.

— don't see Mikey

It was Donnie who now removed the minor from the scene, watching how Rapha approached Leo's body.

— we have to go quickly to the sewer!

He ordered while he took his handkerchief from his head because he managed to find the most serious in Leo's head , he pressed, raise to Leo and the four ran to the sewer.

— Dad!

Rapha yelled as he entered, but no one answered.

— Rapha, dad is not here! Remember that he went to help April!

— ... Ahg… teddy bears

He exclaimed in affirmation censoring the curse that he wanted to say, he didn't meditate much since the four of them went to the medical sheath .

— What do we do, Donnie?

Rapha said as he tried to find things that would be useful to him.

— I'm on it!

He answered while on his cell phone he was looking for the treatment that he had to do, there were many pages, a lot of information... A lot of information that he couldn't process quickly for the situation. Rapha noticed how overwhelmed Donnie was, but before he could say anything Mikey exclaimed.

— Leo's notebooks can help us!

He quickly runs to his brother's room where he sees the notebooks, takes them and returns to the medical sheath.

— here!

He calls the attention and gives Rapha the notebooks, he immediately takes one and gives the other to Donnie, but when they open them they both look amazed.

— What the hell is this?!

Donnie yells as he turns the pages, Mikey gets confused.

— God this is a disaster!

Rapha confesses while he calmly turns the pages, when Mikey approaches to see him he realizes why his brothers act like this, Leo's notebooks were a jumble of feet to head, many colors, markers and separators, in addition to not everything will be written vertically, there were notes from the head, from the side, inclined and even drawings with bright colors.

«Deciphering this will take us a long time, Nardo, why are you like that!»

Donnie was panicking when he focused on reading a bright yellow note.

— "In case of a fall from high places" yes! This should help!

Donnie was relieved as he skimmed through and looked at his brother.

— Raph help me with the checkup, Mikey see if Leo wrote something here about treating broken shells

He ordered the one in purple while Mikey received both notebooks and the older ones began to treat Leo, first with the most serious wound, cleaning and giving some stitches, to later treat them, then they continued with the smaller ones that the stitches were not necessary but if the cleaned and bandages.

Mikey accepted the task of continuing to read his brother's notes, he couldn't find anything about shell treatment, until he got to the end of the second notebook, it was an index with various colors, reading better he realized it was a bibliography where Leo wrote down various treatments and what notebook it was in.

«How can you be organized in that?... Well but this will do... "First generation" there's what we need!»

He closed the notebook and memorized the information, he had to find that "first generation" notebook.

— I'm going to Leo's room

Mikey's announcement was heard by the elders who confirmed with a "yes". Mikey got out of the medical sheath and went to his brother's room, put the notebooks on the shelf and stared at the mess that was his brother's room.

«If I were Leo, where would he leave those notebooks...»

The youngest walked a bit looking at the closet of his brother in blue.

«They can be here»

Mikey went to the closet door and then opened but was only buried in clothes.

— woah!!!

He exclaims as he falls, not long after "Pop" snaps out of the whole pile of clothes.

«ahh... I get scared»

He confessed while he again saw other shelves but there was nothing, then he approached the night cabinet, again nothing, and as a last option he crouched down and went under the bed.

— Yes, is here!

He said happily after finding a big box, pulled it, it was heavy, he pulled again and heard something break.

— ...hisss....

He made a worried sound as he finally managed to get the box out but torn, the notebooks scattered all over the floor.

The voice of his brother Rapha was heard. Shouting his name, the younger one worries more.

«No, no, no this is a disaster... but I don't have time right now»

He thought as he leaned over and started looking for the notebook mentioned in the index but he saw several notebooks that had the words "First Generation" on the cover.

— Shells!

Angry, he exclaims while he separates all the notebooks that he sees from that label, he leaves with them. They were approximately 20 at a fast pace and he arrived at the medical sheath.

It seems that his brothers had already managed to stabilize Leo, although Donnie was still seeing how to correctly activate the reading machine.

— Here it is!

Said Ángel called the attention of the elders, almost immediately upon seeing the number of notebooks they were surprised.

— Is all that just shells?!

Donnie yelled exhausted.

— No, but I still can't find the notebook for that, but it's in one of these!

The minor answers.

— well then to search

Rapha ordered while the three of them reviewed the notebooks, page after page, some pages due to the suddenness of the boys were damaged .

— Donnie look!

He called the older one giving the notebook to the one in purple, these notes were more orderly, so reading was easier.

— Just what I need!

He smiles, while he takes the notebook and goes to the machine, it turns out that this notebook was about how the machines that were in the medical sheath work.

After measuring Leo's state showing that everything was normal, the three of them calmed down.

— Well team, we must find that shell treatment! Leo is strong so don't rush, read well

Raphael advises, the minors agreed and began to read the notebooks. It wasn't until Rapha took notebook number 6 that he had finally found the damn treatment.

«finally!»

Rapha thought brightening up but before he could say anything he saw a note that was taped to the side.

«"Each shell must be treated in a different way, since despite the fact that we are turtles we are all of different species, if the treatment is done incorrectly it can affect the nerves of the affected person"»

Rapha froze reading the note, he can't believe what a burden "repairing a shell" is.

— Don, here

Finally he said after calming down a bit, Donnie immediately saw the notebook, he didn't pay attention to the note.

— perfect! We can start now!

He said happily as he gets up and runs to the cabinet where all the medical supplies were.

— Resin… Resin...

He said to her as she searched for the jars, while Donnie set everything up, Rapha and Mikey picked up the notebooks.

— come little brother, we must leave this in its place

He mentions Rapha but Mikey immediately gets nervous.

— yes, well... That will be difficult

He confessed while they both walk to the blue one's room with notebooks in hand.

— Because?

As Rapha entered, he was surprised.

— Is this how his room was?

— ...well, half of the disaster I just made...

The minor answers as he walks to the side of the bed where all the other notebooks were. Rapha walked over and saw all those notebooks.

«I thought Leo was exaggerating when he said that medicine was an art...»

He moved his head a bit to stop meditating, then he sighed and bent down to start picking up the notebooks and leaving them on top of the bed.

— we must find where to put them now

Rapha said while Mikey nodded and followed suit.

While the opposites were organizing his blue brother's mess, Donnie was still in the lab reading the notes for the third time.

— well, "step one check what kind of cracks they are"

Donnie approached the gurney using some stairs so he could see, slowly turned to the unconscious brother of his and analyzed.

— "There are fractures, holes and cracks... Fracture: partition, Hollows: absence of parts and Cracks: Fracture and Hollows ".... Well, I only think that... it is a fracture

Donnie analyzed as he went back to reading.

— "Fracture: if the fracture is grade 1, clean, apply a little resin and place a splint, plaster or if it is mild, you can even use a tight bandage as far as the affected person can bear." Uff... I think we have a splint

Donnie came down the steps and went to the medical supply cabinet, after a few moments he found something like a corset, it was a splint made by Leo for these cases.

«At least this if he left it in order»

He thought the twin in purple as he returned to the gurney, without much further delay he went to work. Cleaning the fracture, placing some resin and finally adjusting the splint.

«ready…»

Donnie thought as he put things away.

«This being a doctor is tiring»

Yawning, finally feeling the exhaustion after the adrenaline rush, she climbed back up the steps, then lay down next to Leo.

«Wake up soon 'Nardo»

One last thought before he finally gave up and fell asleep.

Leo opened his eyes, the first thing he did was check the area where he was.

«...aaaaaa... Medical sheath»

He took her head feeling the bandage. He checked his body seeing now how bandaged he was, he tried to move but immediately stopped to cough.

Footsteps are heard, it was his father with a tray.

— Blue, here

The older man mentions as he passes the boy the glass of water that he soon drinks.

— that… Good...

His father said while he patted his head, when he finished drinking the water he sighed.

— How serious is it?

He asks something serious, Splinter knows that when it comes to medicine Leo is serious, so it didn't take him long to answer.

— no, only the one on the head but Purple and Red treat it well

At the mention of his brothers Leo quickly turns around remembering how it ended up like this, but before he could ask the question Splinter speaks.

— Orange only had a slight blow, so don't worry

Leo relaxed at the answer to the question not given.

«...what a relief Angel is fine... And Donnie and Rapha treated me...»

A moment of silence.

— DONNIE AND RAPHA TREATED ME?!

— Yes, and it seems that your notes were the ones that helped them

Before Leo could answer that statement, Donnie enters, interrupting the moment (Today is the day to interrupt Leo).

— yes, they helped after I figured it out!

He exclaims as he walks over and climbs on the gurney with a pad.

— Nardo explains this!

Donnie spreads the notebook showing the notes, notes, colors and various things that at first glance was a mess.

— oh... This is about allergies

He points to a blue frame, then guides to another but a more opaque blue.

— this is about the reasons that can cause

— That's not what I mean!

His twin exclaimed annoyed, from all the noise it can be seen that the other two brothers are already poking their heads into the room.

— How do you have your notes in this horrible state, the old ones are much more orderly!

— DID YOU SEE MY NOTES!?

Given Leo's reaction, Donnie remains static just like the others present.

«Please don't break anything, those notebooks are everything to me... They don't know all the work I had to do to have all that information!»

— Tell me they didn't break anything!

He said again while he tried to get off the stretcher to run to his room but it was useless, since he immediately fell back from the pain.

— Blue calm, calm

Splinter reacts by accommodating his son and tries to calm him down.

— they did it because they needed to help you

Leo snuggles into his father's lap, who sees how distraught he is, surprised and thinking that Leo had never had something material that he considered important.

— Don't blame them, they were just worried

He said again calming the child down from him, while the other three approached.

— Leo... I'm sorry but we had to

Rapha said as she climbed Mikey onto the gurney.

— It's because we didn't know what to do Nardo

Donnie added trying to touch his twin brother who still hadn't turned to look at them, but not long after a heavy sigh was heard.

— they're right... It's silly to worry about... About something like that...

Leo replied as he walked away from his father.

«They had no choice... They needed information... They didn't know....»

He repeated himself mentally to calm down, while doing this Angel hugged him.

— you scared me...

Said the youngest, Leo left his thoughts aside and the hug corresponds.

—...thanks to you I'm fine...

— b-but it was my fault that you ended up like this, that your notebooks were damaged and... And your shell!

— no!... It was an accident! Relax angel, also if I didn't do something you would be wrong ... Brother I love you and I would jump again if it was to save you or the others

Leo calmed down his younger brother, seeing the older ones who were sitting next to him also wanting to hug the one in blue, Leo sighed and stretched out his hands to the others, thus the family joined in a hug.

— thanks for waking up Nardo...

— thanks for helping me guys

Almost a full month passed since the accident, but Leo always stayed in the medical sheath being cared for by his father, he had views of his brothers and April, who helped Leo get a 200-sheet folder, a box of pens and more perforated sheets.

— and what do you plan to do with it Leo?

— well... I guess you already know, a manual?

— oh? Of what and for what?

— well... you'll see

The girl nodded happily, after talking for a while she left and so Leo was left alone again, so she took the folder and the package of mixed pens that her friend brought her.

A week later he finally came out of the medical pod, Leo's brothers were happy that the recovery been successful and to celebrate the minor they prepared a feast. Everyone was already seated but before they ate Leo spoke.

— Brothers, I know that this medicine thing is difficult, but I, your most handsome and brilliant brother, has created this!

he said happily pulling out the folder

— A folder? I'm sorry Nardo but someone else already invented it

Donnie answers to which he receives a slight laugh from the others.

— hahaha funny Donnie, but nope! look

Without further ado Leo opened the folder showing that it really is a Medical manual. The brothers got a little confused. Leo handed the folder to Donnie who piled up next to him, Rapha and Mikey.

The notes were clear, simple and too organized, it almost looked like a printed book.

— I know my notes are extravagant for you, so I thought this would help... You know... In case something happens and dad or I can't help

He smiled nervously because in his mind he began to create ideas where his brothers have to act as a doctor due to his incompetence and his father is not there, although he could not think anymore because he felt an arm.

— Thanks Leo, this is perfect, but I hope you don't get hurt again little brother, you are the doctor of this family, no one can replace you.

Rapha confirms as she continues to hug Leo who immediately reciprocates.

Since that day the folder is always updated, but most are emergency treatments, such as injuries, cuts and cracks in the shell... Etc...

Thus creating the Medical Journal

Hoping it will never be used... and it will never happen.

Righit?
