It's an anxious last few blocks, but Donnie's willing to let the others go off ahead of him while he swings around to keep an eye on the surrounding open streets. He can't help but listen for any signs of those eager sounds of the kids as they rush off to be suddenly cut off, but when that doesn't happen and the sounds of footsteps begin to peter off bit by bit, the turtle teen finally moves towards the perimeter of the designated safe-haven himself.

The atmosphere's so oddly different from earlier on. Maybe it's just the sense of having accomplished something that makes it so. It's a minor thing, but he'll take it.

He joins Li as he finds the girl finally allowing herself to relax. Watching the last few people head inside, Donatello offers her a grin. "Yeah. We did."
