Yay! It's raining! And it brought out all the little plot bunnies! This little bugger bit me on the ankle so I thought I would use him first! Enjoy!Disclaimer: Oh yea, I own TMNT! If you believe that I'll sell you some dry land down in the Everglades! (for those of you who don't live in Florida and hear this phrase very often, there is no dry land down in the Everglades.)

I hear the thunder rolling by

As I cower in my bed and try not to cry

Stifling small screams of fright

As a boom of thunder kills the light

Raph's loud snore

Leo's sleeping next door

Donnie's completely unaware

It's so unfair

Another boom shakes loose a squeal

As my brothers sleep, it's so surreal

They can sleep and get some relief

While I lay here shaking like a leaf

Just when I feel like crying for dad

I suddenly don't feel so bad

Raph, Leo, and Donnie heard my cries

I can see the light of a flashlight shining in their eyes

Their faces are weary, yet full of worry

As they crowd around my bed in a hurry

They ask if I'm alright

As they see I shake in fright

I give a watery smile

And nod my head after a while

This façade is suddenly broken

When another boom of thunder seems to have spoken

I cry out loud and dive beneath my quilt

My hope of being brave beginning to wilt

My bed suddenly sinks under the weight of three more

My brothers sneaking under, giving me the comfort I silently ask for

As we cuddle closer to another brother

We can't help but smile at each other

I am glad my bro's are here

Keeping me safe from my own fear

I know one day we will outgrow this

It is something I will miss

Having my brothers all with me

As we sleep together, as a family
