Disclaimer: I own no turtles, but they are awesome!


Rules (My point of view)

I love being home alone, I thought, no distractions, no annoying little sisters and, my thought was cut off by a loud BANG.

"Hello, anyone there?" I called, running down the stairs.

"EEPP"

I'd know that girlish squeal anywhere,

"Mikey?" Mike popped out from behind the sofa.

"Uhh, hey Chips and ice-cream, how you doing?"

"O.K, a) my name is Em, b) I'm fine thanks for asking, c) where are the others and d) what are you doing here?"

"That's a lot for me to remember, but okay, sorry Em, I shouldn't call you food even though it's your screen name, the others are here somewhere and we just came to talk."

"I've read enough fic's to know you guys NEVER visit an author just to talk"

"Whatever, say you got any food, I'm starving!"

"Geez Mike, we can't take you anywhere without you asking for something to eat" Raph kinda appeared out of thin air.

"Ohh, come on Raph, it was a long journey from New York to England"

"Mike's right Raph, it was a long trip, but you do ask for everywhere we go Mike" Don emerged from a shadow.

"Don't join his side Don, and where's Leo?"

"Don't ask me"

"But where is he?"

"Mike would you shut up!"

The three turtles started arguing, so I did the only thing an author could do. Go to the computer and wrote a detailed description of a drum kit that would appear in my living room, went to the drums and played something really loud but surprisingly good.

"That was loud"

"I didn't know you could play drums"

"Yeah, well I didn't know I could play drums either, now stop arguing, Leo will be here soon, I'm sure"

"Yeah, I'm sure I will"

"EEPP"

Leo appeared behind Mike (that's why he squealed)

"Good, now you're all here, what did you want?"

"Like Mikey said, to talk"

"Sure, cos you guys are so the turtles that always talk"

"Well, more like give you some rules for your stories"

"Oh, now I get it, so what rules do you have?"

"No romances, they cramp our style" (Raph's rule)

"No torture fic's, I don't like having to patch up my brothers all the time." (Don's rule)

"No stories with self inserts, not everyone thinks there that good" (Leo's rule)

"And no fic's where one of us die's, I hate those!" (Mike's rule)

"K, my answer to all those are, Raph I was thinking of doing a romance series, so no, Don where's the action if there are no torture fic's? Nowhere, so no, Leo this will probably be put into a story, and any other time you guys visit, so no and Mike I also hate fic's where you guys die so yes, any questions?"

"So you're just going to ignore all these rules, except the shell head's?"

"Yep"

"But-"

"I think what Raph's trying to say is thanks for listening and giving us a reason instead of just ignoring the rules for no reason, we'll be going now"

"Oh, and good ending to Advent calendars"

"Thanks Don, wait, I've not posted the end to Advent calendars yet, did you hack my laptop!"

"Well, you do make it easy to find and I, um...bye!"

And they all kinda just disappeared.

10 minutes later

"Hi Em's, what did you do while we were out?" Great my families home.

"Nothing much, just made up some rules"
