A/N: Got the idea for this while my husband was watching 'The Incredible Hulk' movie. I was working on After the Blaze while he was watching it.
Had to stop what I was doing and write this funny little one shot.
13-year-old Michelangelo sat down to watch a movie that he had found in a box of video's that he and his father Splinter had found while out scavenging for supplies. Splinter didn't see the harm in his son having the video's as long as they were age appropriate he didn't mind.
Mikey Pulled out a movie titled 'Hulk' frowning in curiosity he put it in the DVD player, after watching the seemingly endless supply of previews the movie started. Getting into the movie after about ten minutes he barely registered that Raph had joined him.
The two brothers sat silently watching the movie together, about forty-five minutes had gone by before Leonardo came in and said loudly over the movie.
"Raph! You need to go clean up your mess in the dojo! You throwing your weapon at it caused some of the stuffing to get on the floor. Splinter told me to tell you to get your shell in there and clean it up."
Raph twisted in his seat, he had been trying to control his temper as he told his older brother.
"I'm watchin a movie with Mike right now, I will clean it up after it's over."
Mikey could hear the irritation creeping in his hot-headed brother's voice.
Leo stepped forward and said irritated.
"No, you will do it now, Mike can watch this by him self and can rewind it when you get back."
Raph stood up and faced his brother, his temper started to raise.
"I. said. I. Would. do. It. After. The. Movie. Leo."
Leo could feel his own temper raise as he said.
"Raph, just get your shell in there and clean it up."
He had grabbed his brother by the arm, Mikey looked over at the T.V. screen to see David Banner's eyes start to glow green and his bulky green skin start to come to life. Looking between the fighting brothers and the movie Mikey noticed how dark Raph's skin seemed to get when he got angry, he never noticed it before now. And it seemed that Raph's eyes turned a darker shade of green as well. Looking between the two his imagination started to run wild as he jumped up and said quickly.
"Raphie, I will help you! Then we can come back and watch the movie together!"
Both older brother's looked at the younger and Leo huffed and stormed off, not replying to the youngest turtle. Raph turned to him and asked.
"you sure?"
Mikey smiled and shut the movie off.
"totally, we can come back to finish the movie when we get it done."
It took about 15 minutes for the two to get the area clean of the little beads of stuffing swept up off the dojo floor.
Raph took a patch and with the help of Mikey they got the holes patched up on the punching bag. By then it was time for practice before lunch.
With the movie forgotten, for the time being, Raph sparred with Mikey as practice continued. Again Leo began to start a fight with Raph over his form, Mikey again let his imagination get the better of him as he watched the slight change in Raph take over again.
Standing next to his tallest brother he asked quietly.
"Is David Banner real?"
Donnie looked at his little brother confused and asked.
"Who?"
"you know, David Banner? The incredible hulk?"
Donnie tried to remain quiet so they wouldn't get into trouble for talking out of line during practice told him.
"No Mikey, its just a fictional story. The incredible Hulk is not real. Why do you ask?"
Mikey looked back over to Raph again and then to their father who was sending the two whispering brothers a warning look.
"Cause Raph reminds me of him when he gets angry... that is how he transforms into a monster. By his bad temper."
Donnie put his hand on his face in disbelief and said a little too loudly.
"Are you seriously comparing The Incredible Hulk to our brother?"
This caught Raph and Leo's attention unfortunately and Splinter walked over to the two.
"Michelangelo, what seems to be the trouble my son?"
Before Mikey could answer Donnie piped up.
"Mikey thinks that Raph is turning into the Incredible Hulk."
Splinter felt a chuckle wanting to emerge but he held it down as he said.
"and why do you think this my son?"
Mikey looked over at his hot-headed brother then back up to his father.
"Because when Raph gets angry he gets darker green... his eyes get darker too."
Donnie tried to hold back a laugh, and so did Leo. Raph walked up to his youngest brother and said.
"Oh really Mikey? Do I look like a human that transforms into a huge monster?"
Mikey tried to hide behind Donnie as he told him worriedly seeing his brother's temper was raising again.
"No, just a temperamental turtle that gets darker green every time some one makes you mad."
"I do not."
Mikey could see the fire in Raph's eyes start to flare up as he spoke again.
"And you also destroy things when you get angry too..."
Raph started to advance on his hiding brother when Splinter stopped him.
"Do not prove his point to be accurate my son, but you do need to learn to control your temper."
Raph frowned up at his father and then said to Mikey.
"Fine, but I am still not The Hulk!"
Mikey smiled and said teasingly.
"oh yea you are, your muscles really bulge when you get angry too... sort of like right now..."
Raph felt his temper grow hotter with every snicker he could hear coming from the other two and from the words Mikey was saying. The one thing he really hated was to be teased, and this would qualify as teasing.
Mikey backed away as it seemed Raph was getting taller by the second, and he could see it again, Raph's skin was getting darker and his eyes were getting greener.
Splinter stepped aside as Raphael charged at his teasing little brother, Mikey gave a yelp as Raph chased him around the dojo, knocking over everything in his path. Leo laughed and said to his father and remaining brother.
"Maybe Mikey's right? Raph can be like the Hulk when he gets mad!"
The three laughed as Raph charged past them again in another attempt to catch the teasing turtle.
A/N: its not my best work I know but its still funny... please review.
