Turtle Tot Headcanons: Bathing
•Splinter bathed the boys once a week whilst on the street, and it was in the river.
•Once they moved into the lair, Splinter couldn't get the tub to work, but the sink worked, so he just bathed them one at a time in there.
•Once he got the tub to work, bathtime was nightly and mandatory. Not that the boys minded. They loved baths.
•Raph's favorite bath toys were a plastic teddy bear that squirted. Leo's was a ship. Donnie's was a plastic duck that swam under the water when you twist the key. Mikey's was a rubber sharky. They also had plastic balls, a mermaid doll that changed colors in the water (from April), and a set of toys that had one big turtle and 4 small ones.
•They all love baths, but hate getting washed. Splinter fought with them to get them clean, and each one made excuses. "It's in my eye!", "The water's too hot/cold!" "I wanna get out, now." "I didn't get THAT dirty!" etc.
•Leo freaks out Donnie by drinking the tub water or spitting it at him.
•Splinter always had "Mr. Bubble Liquid Bath", but once he got the "Scientific & Terrific Potion Bath" for Donnie's birthday. He loved it.
•Each boy had a favorite scent. Raph's was lavender, Leo's was eucalyptus, Donnie's was citrus, and Mikey's was vanilla sugar.
•Fights were common, mostly among the twins, and it's usually about toys or the temperature of the water.
•Donnie once fell asleep in the tub and Splinter still has a photograph of it. He thought it was so precious.
•When the kids were little, bath paint WAS a thing, but Splinter would rather not deal with that.
•To keep from the "you got soap in my eye, daddy" complaint, Splinter installed a detachable shower head to the tub so he could rinse the kids properly (and to have water fights with them.)
•It gave Splinter great satisfaction to hear the chorus of "No"s when he announced it was time to get out.
•After the bath came the big fluffy towel that dried each kid off, then a layer of lotion, then soft jammies before books and bedtime.
•Baths usually knocked them out.
•Once, Splinter was enjoying a hot bath to unwind. He put his head under the water and closed his eyes for a minute and when he opened them, Leo was staring at him, which made Splinter scream in surprise.
•When they got older, Splinter had to start separating them. He tried Mikey/Leo, Raph/Donnie, Donnie/Mikey, Raph/Leo, and settled with Raph/Mikey and Leo/Donnie.
•When they turned 7, they were interested in showering, so Splinter would bring each one into the bathroom and explained how to wash themselves while standing up. After that, they were on their own.
•Every teenaged boy STINKS! Splinter had to constantly remind them to shower after they turned 11.
•April has her own shower caddy with special shampoo and conditioner and will get mad/use her bat if any of her brothers touch it.
•Once, she had to shower in the lair after an intense lair sport, and while she was in there, Donnie accidentally walked in. They both screamed, Donnie had a loofah thrown at his head, and they swore to never bring it up again. That day the boys learned how to knock.
•Raph tried to give Mayhem a bath. It didn't go well.
•After the Shredder incident, the siblings had a hot tub installed in their home to unwind. After the Krang incident, Leo wouldn't leave it, saying it helped his wounds.

So of course Im gonna do a Bonus Thing for Donnie x Yokai reader like the rest but i just had... either a Big Brain or Big Dumb idea of the different readers and the brothers talking to each other hang on lemme just--
----
Mikey: I dunno... *sigh* What if I mess up confessing to Starsick?
Raph: *snorts* Please, theyre so delighted with anything you say to them they wouldnt even notice.
Don: *typing something, deleting something, typing again* You could probably say something along the lines of "mmme date? you? please yes?" and they'd think its cute.
Leo and Raph: *laughs*
Mikey: Oh shut it! >:[ I just dont want to ruin my chances...
Leo: Believe me, baby bro, they are ENTIRELY smitten with you. Just go for it! Heck, at least you arent in Don-Tron's shoes.
Don: *stiffens* Hey!
Raph: Night Eyes is...Kinda scary man, sorry. I dont know how you wont choke asking em out.
Leo: You think theres like a whole custom thing you gotta do? or can you just take em out for tacos and woo em with your knowledge of ant farms?
Don: *grumbling* I shouldve dumped the colony in your bed while you were asleep- Look, ill take em to a nice restaurant, maybe go dancing... once I text them....
Raph: You cant take em to Hueso's, Mikey called that one.
Leo: Hey, not to bat for donnie, but Mikey also called like....17 other places. He's gotta pick one. And anyways, Raph, whats your plan?
Raph: *blushing* I dunno what you mean.
Mikey, Leo and Donnie: PLEASE.
Donnie: You are, according to extensive data research and watching you and Origami with my own eyes, crushing HARD on each other.
Mikey: Yeah! Come on big guy, you gotta ask em out. You're so sweet on them and they seem like they feel real comfortable around you.
Leo: *nods nods* You gotta do it bro. You're adorable together, and I think youre really good for em. Plus im worried they might, like, cry or throw up if they try and ask you out.
Raph: Whatever *rolls eyes* ...and what about you, eh?
Leo: *blink* What do you mean?
Don: ???When are you finally gonna ask Homie out??
Mikey: theyre already dating guys. I overheard them talking about date night on saturday.
Leo: Guys i already told yo- wait were you eavesdropping on us...? nevermind. We arent dating. Homie's just a close friend, they dont even like me like that.
Raph, Donnie, Mikey, Splinter (who just wanted some cake and is now part of This Shit): 🤨😒
-- Elsewhere, at a cafe --
Starsick: Gosh i dunno what if Michelangelo's just being nice?
Night Eyes: Mh, no. He's down bad. He looks at you like you hung the moon in the sky.
Homie: Look, if he doesnt ask you out by the end of the week, hes probably just nervous. try confessing your feelings and see if that helps!
Origami: *nods* a direct approach is a good one.
Night Eyes: Which is why I'm asking ~Othello von Ryan~ to come visit me at a dance hall. after dinner, of course. Sushi, my treat. 💅✨
Homie: Ooohohoo~ Look at you, going in for the kill!
Night Eyes: Hes just so cute~ I like how he talks about space travel. so facinating!
Homie: So, when are you going to tell Big Red you like him?
Origami: *sputters, face red* What!! No! I do not! I just, he, um..!!
Starsick: Is nice to you, helps calm you down, encourages you to take care of yourself....
Homie: *counting on fingers* reminds you of a teddy bear, thinks you look cute when you pout, helped get you out of the foot clan...
Night Eyes: Is so painfully smitten with you yet you remain unaware.
Origami: >~< he's so sweet, and Im worried I might...be mean, or blunt, and it makes him not like me....How did you ask Leonardo out?
Homie: ...??? who, me?
Origami: ...yes??
Homie: Oh, we arent dating. We're just friends, he doesnt like me like that.
Night Eyes, Origami, Starsick, April (who was bringing their order and is now in the middle of all This Shit): 🤨😒

Her people-pleasing attitude can oftentimes lead to her neglecting her own wants and needs (both basic and personal) which in turn leads to the guys (mostly Raph) having to remind her to take care of herself.

She accidentally spooks a large group of bats, in which one of the Oozesquitoes is in. She gets consequently stung and mutated. When she’d realized what happened, she rushed back home. When her parents saw her walk in, they were both horrified and ended up scaring her off. Later in the night, she goes back, but through the window to her room to gather some (if not most of) her things and goes to find somewhere to spend the night. The guys find her while out on patrol and end up letting her crash at the lair(and she later ends up moving in)

lessons in opposites
(a/n) a commission for my pal @fanfic-inator795! enjoy some raph and donnie bonding !
It’s not that Raph really prefers one brother over the other; he’s been blessed with three great brothers and one fantastic sister and Raphael is grateful every day, as sure as he’s got life and breath in him, he’s so grateful that he’s not alone. 
April asks, just for laughs, for a silly documentary on their Lair Games, if Raph had a favorite brother; and off the bat, on instinct, he wants to deny that he does. He loves them all. But then he blurts out Mikey’s name without thinking and then things start to shift, and Raph starts to wonder if he’s a terrible brother for that.
“It’s not a big deal, Raph,” Donnie says, after having seen the clips of how little faith his brothers had in his athleticism, and that one little clip of Raph easily admitting Mikey was his favorite, followed up by Leo, “It’s just a joke…”
But he says it in the way that’s pinched and just a little forced like he does when he takes hard hits and bad falls and just wants to laugh it off because he’s fine. 
Raph swallows, nods, presses a smile that feigns belief in Donnie’s words, but he can’t stop glancing over at his brother’s face the whole rest of the time they watch April’s (incredibly edited) documentary film. 
His brother keeps his eyes downcast and does that thing where he wrings his hands till they get weirdly slick with this mucusy stuff. 
Like when he’s hurt and holding back. 
And Raph makes a silent promise, then, that he’ll definitely make it up to his brother.
---
Life has a funny way of just screwing plans and promises over. Raph trains extra with his father on early mornings, learning to think, to focus, to get his fears under control. Donnie locks himself into work by the time training is over, and then they go patrol and watch something on Netflix and then the day is spent and it’s 4am. 
So it’s not exactly intentional, the way their paths just don’t cross long enough for Raph to really get the chance to make it up to Donnie. But it’s still shitty and Raph knows there’s something he can do- he has to. 
And so he googles a bunch of stuff going on in Manhattan, something that wouldn’t be so obviously intended on compensating for basically saying Don is his least favorite brother. Something Donnie won’t suspect, because if he did- 
“If you asking me is a way of ‘reparations’ for the Lair Games documentary, Raph…”
“It’s not-” Raph raises his arms in innocence, and crosses over his plastron, “Turtle’s honor, Donnie. ‘S just the guys...they’ll be all ‘that’s lame’, and you…”
“Wouldn’t think a teddy bear world is lame?” Donnie quirks his perfectly drawn brow and cocks his head a little at Raph.
This is going abysmally, but not quite in a way that wasn’t expected. Raph bites his own tongue from just spilling his intentions heartfeltly- because he can’t scare his brother off right now. He’s gotta play it cool. 
“Uhhh, I mean, I-”
“Because you’d be pretty accurate,” Donnie interjects, and despite his voice remaining flat, his lips curve into a ghost of a smile, and Raph’s heart stops pounding so hard, “I was wondering when you would finally ask one of us, ugh a dream come true.”
Raph genuinely cannot tell if Donnie is being sarcastic, though roughly fifteen years of training has at least let him gather, from that weird way his brother’s eyes got super overbright when he was excited, that Donnie really, like super straight up, means it. 
“Wow…. well, aight then,” Raph laughs with his words, still not believing how easy it was to simply…ask to spend time with his brother, “Just pick a disguise and we good!”
“Yup, normal disguise. Friday it ‘tis,” Donnie returns the laugh, a touch awkward, before taking his sandwich back to his lab. 
And the slightly manic look that Raph catches in his brother, just as he slips from view, makes a lot of little pieces in Raph’s head come together, like a little, horrifying jigsaw puzzle.
Because Raph has been blessed with having Donnie as a brother for fourteen years, he knows a terrible plan forming when he sees one. 
-----
Donnie takes pride in his intellect, like not in a super cocky way, he’s just glad he’s been gifted with the ability to make a pea shooter in one afternoon that also has the capability to laser off a bastard’s face. 
Still he’s not too prideful to admit that he’s sometimes stupid as hell, in the emotional department, and social department. And while that’s not exactly ideal, Donnie’s got four pretty incredible siblings to lean on for that and so he doesn’t really complain about the impossibility of picking up social cues. 
But sometimes, like when his older brother is standing across from him uncomfortably stiff, babbling on about Teddy Bear Town- well sometimes Donnie kinda wishes he did get it. 
It’s only until he’s stacking his third layer of his sandwich that Donnie really understands what this is all about. Because Raph’s got his ‘I’m nervously trying to make it up to you’ stink, and then Donnie remembers the documentary, and Raph’s commentary, and the really…awful way Donnie pretended not to feel afterwards. 
He doesn’t want Raph to pity invite him, he doesn’t need that. And Donnie’s gonna make sure his brother knows he’s fine- he’s chill and and he’s okay with potentially being Raph’s least favorite. 
So he’s supposed to respond to Raph nonchalantly, to just go with Raph and be cool about it but- 
“Shelldon, download all the info you can find on Teddy Town…”
-----
“Rise and shine, bud!” 
Donnie must’ve drank four extra shots of espresso to be this hype this early, and Raph grips the steering wheel of the Turtle Tank a little harder to try and not smell so nervous. Because there’s no way Donnie could have actually known what Raph’s intentions were, like he had to have just thought that this was a normal thing, and not a ‘I’m so sorry I made you feel less than appreciated, please forgive me’ type of thing. 
And Donnie is definitely onto something, even if he’s not onto Raph. He’s just got that glint in his eyes, and Raph feels just a little bit selfish for wanting this to be a normal day- for his brother to  just be-
“Uh...thanks for taggin’ along,” Raph doesn’t intentionally cut Donnie off, but his brother’s talking a mile a minute about the history of Teddy Bear Town and Raph knows that he’s only doing it because he feels he has to. 
Donnie stops himself, blinks, and puts his hands in the pockets of his hoodie, “It’s no big deal…” he says, in complete contrary to his hyperactive Ted Talk, “Being benched for a sprained ankle was shit, needed to get out anyway…”
He glances over at Raph and looks instantly, incredibly smaller. 
Raph thumbs the steering wheel, drumming against it in thought, in a search for words. 
He doesn’t have to do this kinda stuff with Mikey, and Leo never shuts up- and Donnie is just…
“Bluetooth, connect to my phone,” Donnie says abruptly, before Raph even gets the chance to think of something to say. 
And they stay quiet, listening to music the whole way there.
------
Things feel significantly less awkward in the bigger crowd. Raph is grateful for all the noise and movement that he can shift his focus on, instead of the downcast way Donnie’s been carrying himself since halfway through their ride over here. 
And Raph’s always kinda felt his younger brother had a tough time expressing himself- that they were different that way. That Raph carried his heart on his sleeve and that his brother didn’t. But now he’s starting to see that maybe he’s got some things twisted. That he and Donnie are a lot more alike in these things than Raph thought. 
“Stay close,” he tells his brother, because as aloof as humans are, they’re still humans, and they don’t always accept what’s different.
Raph remembers telling Donnie that, when they first met April, when Donnie surprisingly was the first to reach out and grab her little hand and compare it to his. And Donnie had looked at him weird, and yeah, well humans aren’t the only ones that don’t understand ‘different’. 
The memory hits Raph so suddenly, and almost makes him miss a step. 
He turns to find Donnie staring at him, which must mean Donnie noticed, because of course he did.
And Raph stares back because oh. Holy shit. 
“Uh…” Donnie glances around awkwardly, “Raph, you’re giving off a weird...vibe right now. You good-”
“Can we talk?” Raph blurts out, and surveys their surroundings, for a place to dip, “Like real quick?” 
Donnie looks like he wants to bolt now, which would be ideal in the packed hallway of the mall. But he doesn’t. He just swallows and darts his eyes and nods.
Sure. 
Pros to being trained ninjas is the ability to disappear quickly, and they find a quiet, tucked away spot where Raph finally lets himself breathe. 
“You’re different,” he says it quickly and rushed and Donnie’s eyes briefly widen in some sort of surprise, but Raph presses on despite his sloppy start, “You….you think different, you think, like, way smarter than us, an’ you make different jokes and express differently an’ that doesn’t. It’s not bad, Donnie.” 
His brother keeps his eyes to the ground, kicking gently at nothing, “I don’t care that you said I’m your least favorite, Raph,” he mumbles. 
“But you do,” Raph counters back, and keeps his voice leveled, tries not to talk to Donnie too softly or else he’d feel babied, “And that’s normal, and I wish I could say that what I said wasn’t...I dunno, like a…”
“Reflection of how you feel?” Donnie poses, but his words aren’t angry, even if Raph feels his brother’s got full rights to be.
He sighs, deflating a little, “Yeah...yeah, I guess it’s that. But not because I think...it’s because I get really...weirdly insecure man. You’re a freaking genuis and I know you never try an’ make us feel dumb, but- and then we’re both super bad at words and I just… I dunno Dee.”
Raph takes the extra step to go close the distance between him and Donnie, and Donnie stiffens up- at first, for just a couple of seconds, “But I love you, ‘cause you’re an awesome person, and ya not my least favorite. You’re not. And ya don’t gotta pretend you’re cool with everything.”
Donnie pulls back, a dorky smile on his face, which is infinitely better than the sad way he looked earlier, even better than the way he pretended like everything was good and it wasn’t.
“You don’t have to pretend either,” Donnie says, unlocking their eye contact, and staring back at his feet, “I know you were trying to...to make it up to me, but. You could’ve- you didn’t have to invite me.”
“But I wanted to,” Raph says it and means it with everything he’s got, “Really, Donnie. A-and I wanted to do somethin’ that ya wouldn’t think was me just tryna get on your good side, ya know. Somethin’ we could just...do.”
“And I messed up, the whole info-dumping….” 
He’s doing it again, he’s making himself smaller and Raph’s not allowing that. 
“Okay, half of that stuff, I woulda never known- and ya looked all’a that up just to get to understand me better. I just didn’t want you...t’ think you had to...say all that.”
“And I didn’t want you to think you had to invite me,” Donnie quips back, but ends it with a small smile, “So I guess we’re in the same proverbial boat.”
Raph snorts, “The boat of insecurity…”
And Donnie, stiff and awkward and still full of feeling, takes his turn to hug Raph fully this time, “Screw that boat.”
-----
In the end Donnie makes his bear with a shitton of detail, getting so wrapped up in it that they spend a couple hours there.
And Raph’s bear is simple, not all that complex like his brother’s- but that’s more than okay, actually.
Their differences were more than okay.

One Call Away
No matter what she knew she could always count on him to be there, no matter the time of day or what he was doing at that moment if she called he would come to her as fast as he could - even right then in her current situation as her feet pounded down the crowded sidewalk running away from her pursuers she knew he was coming to her aid
He was coming if she could just hold out a little longer
The teenager ran for the open street once more making the men chase her, she had thought by now they would have given up but they seemed to be a little more butt hurt over her taunting them to leave the woman they had grabbed alone laughing at one guy as he hit a light post when she spun around it, she had called for help since they had outnumbered her ten to one and she had tried to wait for him but they had forced her to intervene once the first one made his move.  
She had been coming home from April’s apartment when she had seen some of the purple dragons men grab a woman off the sidewalk so fast she hadn’t had the time to scream for help, the girl had casually jogged across the street putting in a call to the massive turtle who was out riding his motorcycle with Casey only a few blocks away from what he had said last he had checked in on her and hour ago as she had headed out
She had been in the shadows when the leader of the small group had pinned the franticly sobbing woman to the wall unable to just stand there while they were working up to hurting her
She slipped out of the shadows lifting a broken broom handle her fingers brushed over moving until she was close enough taking out the two men right behind him before knocking the man groping the woman away grabbing her arm as she moved towards the front of the alley pushing the older woman behind her protectively yelling for her to run for it once she saw the exit was clear as she held them off
The guys were going to kill her for this but she held her ground until she was sure the lady was long gone before deciding she needed to level the playing field and right now she wasn’t on the winning side, that became no more truer as she caught a bat to her side knocking the wind out of her before getting ganged up on all at once already feeling like she had been hit by a truck fighting for air as she swung her weapon forcing them back before she was gone
Their angry yells followed her as she bolted looking back to see they were ten feet back and gaining turning the next corner the second she got around it for once wishing there were more people out so she could pull a vanishing trick on the men halfway down the next block when a massive human stepped into the center of her way making her skid to a halt seeing Hun and six more men she didn’t wait for them to move upon seeing her looking behind her in a quick glance between the two groups before bolting into the street without thinking
She dodged cars looking to the roofs for her back up not seeing him yet running in front of a car instinctively flipping over the hood as the men stopped to not get hit giving her thirty seconds to get a bit further down the street away from them looking over her shoulder to see them finally hit the sidewalk racing after her again before her eyes caught sight of a familiar black bike speeding past her seeing Casey’s head whip around as he caught sight of the young woman grabbing the radio attached to his chest before she was grabbed from behind thrown into a side alley bouncing off the side of a dumpster
“So the freaks little human girl wanted to play– you seem to like getting into our business a little too much”
The teenager scrambled to her feet spinning around as Hun cornered her holding her ground as he slowly closed the space between them going to grab her making the same first mistake she was starting to notice he never learned from, she shifted her weight round housing him in the side whipping the stick she was still carrying around popping him in the jaw hard enough to make him move back as one of his men grabbed her from behind somehow slipping around them without her ever knowing knocking the air out of her before he reached out grabbing her shirt pulling her away from his man and throwing her into the back wall laughing as she got back to her feet spitting out a stream of blood onto the concrete shaking off her dizziness  realizing she had bit her tongue and lip on the impact
“What are you not going to fight back?”
A sound drew her attention overhead making her glance up before a heavy fist landed a blow to her right cheek sending her stumbling backwards never fully recovering as he hit her three more times but she stayed on her feet swinging the broken handle out hoping he would do as he did and back off to dodge it backing herself closer to the wall as he took another step towards her not to worried about her weapon of opportunity seeming stunned as her smile widened further as a huge shadow passed overhead “I don’t have to fight you lard ass - just waiting until Superman gets here”
He laughed as her back hit the wall looking up at him as his men started towards her “Oh, and why is that princess” he grinned as she shot him a glare pressing further against the wall praying she hadn’t been imagining the dark blob that had just been there out of the corner of her eye “You’re waiting on a fake hero to fly in to save you” he paused in his approach as a large figure landed in front of her in his true superhero pose flaunting a set of sais in both hands as he got to his feet growling in such a threatening way that had the man stopping cold in his tracks
“Last I checked - kid don’t need anyone to save ‘er ass from a bunch of punks like ya” she sighed in relief her body easing as she grinned up at her hero upon hearing Raphael snarling menacingly at the men pushing the small woman behind his cracked shell keeping his body protectively in front of hers “But since ‘m here ya ain’t gonna touch ‘er again” the smaller gang members backed down heading for the street before they came flying back hitting the ground
“Now that was just dumb… you guys should really watch where you’re going I mean running from him, you’re just going to hurt his feelings – he’s a teddy bear if he kills you just means you looked at him funny or you pissed him off – you know what scratch that he ain’t got laid in forever he’s always pissed off” the girl giggled tiredly seeing Raph shaking his head as Casey came out of the shadows into the alley entrance looking a little bruised up nursing a bloodied nose from his little side fight out on the streets while taking care of the other men who had fallen behind in the chase laughing before he saw the small female leaning on the wall “Ay Red – she’s looking a little rough over there”
Raphael didn’t take his eyes off the man growling having just arrived right after he had hit her seeing she was trying to hold him off hating it had taken him so long to get to her
“Ay kid, ya okay?” the massive turtle quickly glanced over his shoulder checked on her keeping the gasping teen behind him as she caught her breath holding her bruised up side before his hand was on her cheek “Sorry it took so long – GPS went down had to find ya the old fashion way”
Her face slowly came up giving him a reassuring smile even though she felt like hell “I am now Superman” he rolled his eyes at her stupid nickname for him unwrapping his wrist wraps before looking her over seeing she was going to have one hell of a shiner and her lip was busted open oozing blood as she smiled at him reopening it again as he handed her the wadded up cloth before his eye were locked on the man who had hurt her hearing her soft laugh “Now you’ve gone a done it… Told you my Superman was coming”
He flew forward a smirk on his lips
The girl didn’t move until the massive human was tied up with the few men that had still been out cold looking up as the turtle in red scooped her up off the ground into his arms poking fun at her while scanning over the injuries to be sure nothing was broken or life threatening before he had nuzzled against her making sure to tell her how good she had done while promising all in the same sentence not to tell the others she had gone solo
Wouldn’t help coming from the one turtle who did it too often in front of her
“Ay Red!” Casey didn’t even have to say anything more; they were gone as the police sirens got closer heading off to a safer location probably wherever he had left his bike before they would head back to the lair together hearing his deep chuckle as she curled up against his chest resting for a bit longer.
They may not have always gotten along and sometimes he might have found her to be annoying when she wanted him to spend time with her – but when it counted and the chips were on the line she knew he would always be just one call away

Catfished: Episode 8
‘Urgh, what’s that smell’ you thought as a stomach turning stench filled your nostrils, your eyelids painfully flutter open to a bright light aimed right at your face,  There are voices, many voices. “She’s waking up”  “Guys, I’m having a Deja Vu moment, she’s opening her eyes like April did”  “What else would she do with her eyes? Numb nuts” “Oh right.”
'Oh God these might be my kidnappers’ your mind began to race  'they’re so… so… round? and big!! and one is right next to me!’
You lift your hand up in front of your eyes to shield them from the blinding light, you heard a rather low “oh sorry” and the one next to you reaches for his forehead and the light turns off, You slowly lowered your hand and your blurry vision finally clears, revealing four, tall, and after a little squint you see those aren’t back packs on their back but shells like turtles.
‘Oh God, I’ve been kidnapped by mutants’  You let out a little gasp, They stood up right and had masks that went over their eyes and not to forget the assorted weapons, your eyes have never been this wide, your heart pounding against your chest like it was almost trying to escape your rib cage, 
you realize the one next to you had goofy taped up glasses and he’s smiling, for 5 minutes no one said a thing, eye contact was maintained, this amount of information is too much for one girl to take in, you could feel a hyperventilation coming along and that is all it took for an emergency escape plan to work through your mind, when the one next to you looked back and you grabbed that tiny opportunity and took off,
“Hey!” They all yelled out after you, 
”She’s fast” You hear one of them say but nothing distracted you from finding a way out, just then you realize their lair was unlike anything you have seen before, oddly enough it looks like a Dojo, nah! your mind’s playing tricks on you,
Oh how you hope with all your mind that, the door you’re about to open leads to someway out of all this madness. You are still dizzy from the injection, whatever it was, it’s making the floor move and the room spin, the door frame is getting wider and wider, 
Just when you thought you are in the clear, one of the leaps out of the shadows and grabs you and your feet lift off the ground,  You kick and scream, “No!” “Woah! Woah! Miss calm down! We’re not going to hurt you”, When he slowly let you go, your gown as long as it is entangles with your , at this point you’re full on crying, slowly backing away as all of them appear, the one in purple comes closer and you jerk away with your hand up defensively “No..” you sob,
“It’s okay” he says softly and kneels in front of you “We are not going to hurt you” he stretches his arm and in his hand is a handkerchief,
You look at it, more than it, you looked at his hands, his muscular three fingered hands, your tear stained eyes move to all of them and they actually didn’t look all that bad, you stretch your hand slowly flinching at the slightest movement, 
Feeling the soft material in your fingers, your eyes locked in with his as you both held onto the handkerchief, he has kind eyes.
Your voice cracks as you whisper “What are you?”
He lets go the handkerchief and stands up next to the others like him,
“Well miss” The blue masked one steps forward, he looks like their leader, although there’s something about their relationship that didn’t seem all about the leader and his followers,
Suddenly the one in orange jumps forward, “We’re teenagers!” the one in blue shoves him away “What my colleague is trying to say is, We’re Ninja’s”
“Technically we’re turtles” the one in purple says,
“Mutant like one” The one is red says in a deep voice,
“Dude, you totally did the bat man voice again”
“Shut up Mikey”
“Mikey?” you narrow your eyes, “You have names?”
“Yeah girl, check it out” Mikey says happily “Here we have Raph or more formally Raphael in the red, who’s like a big, cuddly teddy bear” Raph growls at him, 
“If teddy bears were completely violent,  next we have Donnie aka Donatello in the purple who is a technical genius that is he technically is a genius” Donnie does a little turn and smiles,
“and here we are our fearless leader in blue, Leo or Leonardo, silent but deadly” Leo had his hands crossed but you saw a hint of a smile 
“and finally I’m Michelangelo sporting my signature orange, who’s a triple treat, brains and brawn, and obviously I’m the one with the dazzling personality, ladies call me Mikey” He had a goofy grin on his face.
Leonardo throws his arm over Michelangelo “Are you done?”
“Yeah.” says Mikey still with the grin on his face,
“So. correct me if i’m wrong” you take a deep breath, “You’re mutant turtle teenagers, who have names like regular people and from the current smell i would say you live in the sewer?”
“You missed out the ninja part, other than that your’re on point” Donatello adjusts his glasses,
“Why did you kidnap me?” you ask, a little more confident now that you know who they are,
Leonardo steps forward, he’s taller and bulkier up close, his mass size make you lean back but then his hand stretches out to help you off the floor and you take it, slowly and little reluctant but you take it and you didn’t have to even try, you felt a strong yet gentle pull and you were on your feet.
“Thank you” you say, dusting your dress, not that dusting it would help the sewer water stains or mud, how were you going to explain that to the dry cleaners.
“We didn’t kidnap you, they did.” Leo reassures you, 
“They who?” 
“Shredder’s men” says Donnie
“The creepy guy who has been all over the news? what could he possibly want with me?”
They look at each other unsure of whether to answer you or not,
“Well?” you say once more to urge them to talk,
“Well you see miss” Leo starts,
“Please call me Y/N” you smile, He nods with a smile and continues “Shredder has a scientist called Baxter who did crazy experiments for him” he looks at Donnie to see if he’s getting the details right and Donnie nods,
“Okay, so what does that have to do with me?” you ask politely,
Leo looks back at his brothers and they gave him a nod, letting him know they’ve got his back with what he is about to say,
“You might want to sit down for this one” Mikey’s head peers from behind Leo,
You saw sympathy and a certain kindness in Leo’s eyes as he said those words with a low gentle voice,
“You were one of the experiments.”
