Mike shook his head, "No, you're stupid for puttin' her wants before her needs."
It was as simple as that. Clear-cut. She couldn't want anymore if it was dead. Mike didn't have to go on and on about philosophy or even wondering about the choice just now. From his perspective, it was the only one that made sense. The only one that offered possibilities.
"If you love a person, sometimes you gotta do what they don't want."
Splinter did. He forced Mike to train. To study. To not sluff off. It was because of him that Mike had lived for so long back home, and why he was able to adapt to this place now. All because Splinter made him do things he didn't want to do.
It calmed him that Niikura caved so quickly. Stupid kid. A little too romantic for his own good, sometimes, but a good kid, really. Both of them were. Shiina deserved to live.
