[There is suddenly a lot happening at once. The girls rise out of the blood, and they've clearly been Krangified, the mutating goo warping their limbs into alien monstrosities. Leo feels his heart thud hard in his chest, because Raph had looked like that, Raph's arm and his eye had been changed in the same way, all because Leo-
