Rev It Up
Chapter I: Something's Eating Mondo Gecko
By: Michelle
Mondo Gecko hung his head. He hated being a mutant gecko. At first, it was cool. He is stronger, he can see at night, and can climb walls. However, it wasn't like he could shop at Wal-Mart or anything. Not like he wanted to. After all, it was Wal-Mart.
He missed walking out in public without pretending he was in a costume. He couldn't have a girlfriend. Plus, he felt like her was holding back the band.
His friends, the Turtles, just didn't understand.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"Hey Mondo!" Michaelangelo exclaimed. "It time for the Sewer Hour."
"Not tonight Mike." Mondo Gecko replied.
"Sure buddy."
"Yeah." Mondo replied. "I'm not in the mood."
"Ok, maybe tomorrow then."
Michaelangelo walked out of the room and met up with Kimmico.
"What's wrong?" Kimmico asked. "Is Mondo going to come tonight?"
"Not tonight either." Michaelangelo whined. "It like he is depressed about something."
"Did you try talking to him about it?"
"Yeha." Michaelangelo replied. "He just says he is fine."
Kimmico thought for a moment. "Maybe, he feels left out. After all, you have been spending a lot of time with me since we got back."
"You are right." Michaelangelo agreed. "Maybe, I should hang out with him some more."
"You should."
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Michaelangelo and Mondo Gecko raced each other on skate boards in the sewer.
"Beat you again!" Mondo exclaimed.
"No fair." Michaelangelo said. "One of my wheels is loose."
"Thems the breaks."
"Hey Mondo." Michaelangelo asked. "Do you want to talk about anything?"
"Yeha." Mondo said. "But, I want to talk to everyone about it. You know, later on."
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The Turtles all sat around to hear what Mondo Gecko wanted to talk to them about.
"Donatello." Mondo Gecko said to him. "I want you to make me human again."
"What?"
"I want to be a human again."
Donatello took a deep breath. "I don't know if I can do it."
"You have to."
"But what if he can't?" Venus asked. "You're asking for the impossible here."
"Do you know what it is like to be a freak?" Mondo Gecko yelled.
"Of course we do." Raphael replied.
"Do you know what it is like to be human? To walk on the streets without hiding under a trench coat or a cape. To have a life."
The Turtles looked around.
Michaelangelo sighed. So that was what was bugging him.
Mondo shook his head. "I didn't think so."
"Do you actually think becoming human again will solve all your problems?" Leonardo asked.
"I am a 5 foot 6 inch walking, talking gecko. I can climb walls and have a taste for cockroaches." Mondo explained. "What makes you think I want to remain a gecko for the rest of my life?"
Donatello bit his lip. "I can try. But, I can't promise you anything."
"Thanks."
