Wow that was very good :)

normally fighting parts have more to them but how u did it was very good, it showed action without playing it all out. *thumbs up*

Perfect. I like how they were forced to stop fighting...I hadn't thought of that. And Raph being stubborn as usual. I really liked the detail where Shredder respects Raph more than the other turtles, and Raph doesn't agree. It fit both of them really well, I think. And I liked how Raph almost left him to die, but then changed his mind at the last second. Another thing that fit him, I think. All in all, I expected it to be really good, and it went above and beyond. How you've portrayed them, I could totally see them becoming frienemies.

That was VERY good Ruth! *applause* I probably would have given up but you actually made it work. This means you get fifty extra brownie points to add to the two hundred you received for the story writing. :) And good for Raph, defending his beliefs. :)

It was pretty nice! Most people would set a dialogue between Leonardo and Shredder, but not with Raphael. Shorty story , but goody :)
