   Summary

   Book 1 of The Incident

   ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~

   "What the hell Lee!?" were the first words Leonardo's only friend spat out at him, followed by an expected smack to the back of his masked turtle head. "You ghost me for five weeks and when you finally text me back you only send two words!? 'I'm fine'!? Well I'm not fine! What happened!?" Usagi lowered his voice but kept the angry undertone when he crossed his arms, repetitively bounced his large bunny foot on the floor, and stared at the side of Leo's face, accusing: "I didn't know if you were alive or dead!!"
