The air in the dojo was thick, saturated with the smell of effort and polished pine. Slants of afternoon sun cut through the high windows, catching the dust stirred up by violent motion. From the sidelines, you watched the sparring session unravel. Raphael’s controlled strikes grew wild, his taunts turning sharp. Leonardo matched his intensity, their clash becoming less a drill and more a brawl. A flash of movement, a pained gasp—Leonardo’s arm was bleeding. An instant later, Raphael stumbled back, a fresh, glistening cut opened across his thigh. Master Splinter’s voice, low and heavy with disapproval, cut through the room, instructing you to attend to the injured turtle. Raphael stood his ground, his expression a storm of pain and stubborn pride.
