Just be Mikey
Prologue…
Mikey's P.O.V
I sat there staring at my nun-chucks. I had let my brothers down. AGAIN. And why? Because like always I was completely distracted by the weird shiny light from the building across the street. Just a light. That's what I was distracted by. And we had almost gotten killed because of it...
Earlier that evening...
"Catch me if you can slowpokes! Oh...wait. YOU CAN'T" I yelled to my brothers. We were playing ninja tag and like always, I was in the lead.
"Shuddup Mikey! You ain't going to get away that easily this time!" Raph answered, and he began to charge at me with all the speed he could muster.
I was doing pretty well too, slowing down a little bit and when he would get near me I would speed up and run farther away. I did this just to tease him.
Anyways... I was doing pretty well until I saw the light in the old abandoned building across the street. It was the same light that would flicker on every time I moved past it. Every night we went on patrol, in the same building, shell it was even in the same room. That one light would always flicker on.
And the reason it creeped me out so much is that the building had been abandoned for years.
I was distracted by the light causing me to stop short and...
"SHELL!" Raph yelled as he whammed into me. "What the shell Mikey?! Why did you stop? Are you an idiot? Yes, you are." he said before I could even open my mouth.
"Sorry Raph, it's just that light over there distracted me." I said pointing to the light.
"A light... Really Mikey. That's a low. Even for you." He answered. By now Leo and Don had caught up to us.
"What's going on?" Leo asked.
"Yeah what are you guys looking at?" Donnie continued.
I pointed again to the light. I felt like I couldn't peel my eyes away from it. I heard Raph chuckle next to me.
"Shell fer brains got distracted by a frickin light." He said.
I snarled at him (although he couldn't see my face.) "It's just weird. I swear it turns on every time we pass by on patrol. And it's in that creepy old house." I said shivering at the last part.
"Hmm. He's right that is a bit odd." Donnie agreed.
"Oh c'mon! Not you too Don!" Raph said exasperated.
"I have to agree with the other two. Why would a light be on in an abandoned business building?" Leo asked.
I smiled. It made me happy to think at least two of my brothers agreed. And knowing Raph he probably thought it was weird, but just didn't want to admit to defeat. I heard him growl slightly as if about to say something angrily, but he was interrupted when about 30 ninjas from the foot clan jumped out in front of us, behind us, and around us... We were surrounded.
Leo's P.O.V
My brothers and I assumed our battle positions as ninjas from the foot clan flooded around us.
"I don't see any way out of this. Looks like we are fighting." Donnie cried to us.
"No shit Sherlock." Raph answered as he threw one of his sai's at a foot's head knocking him out.
I quickly looked over at my brothers, Donnie was wrestling with maybe ten ninjas, while Raph was throwing himself at as many as he could all at once. And Mikey? He seemed dazed. Distracted, as he stared across the street not even paying attention to the battle two inches away from him. Oh please, please don't tell me he's still looking at that light I thought to myself as I threw a ninja off my shoulders.
"Mikey look out!" I yelled as a ninja came closer to my glassy eyed little brother.
But he didn't respond. Sighing I quickly stepped in front of him knocking out the oncoming ninja with one swift blow to the head with my twin katana. But the ninjas kept coming. And only towards Mikey. Raph and Donnie noticed this too and were soon by my side.
"What's going on Fearless?" Raph asked "Why are they all flocking to Mikey?"
"I'm not sure. I think it might be because he seems like the weakest, look at him. He won't even answer me." I answered pointing to our little brother.
"I will go check on him. You guys keep the ninjas away." Raph said walking over to Mikey.
I was too busy dealing with the ninjas to see what was going on right behind me…
