Her Diary
TMNT 2k3 – Mikey/Mykal and some others :)
Summary: Just answering the question, what if Mikey was a girl? What are all the trials of being the only female, in an all-male household? One shot.
Notes: His/her name is now Mykal-Ann Gelo Hamato (Hmmm, Jell-O). From her P.O.V. Just a little drabble ;) if you liked it, I could make a second part. I know the title is 'Brotherly Basics' but can we let this one slide? For just a moment? Lol, so much for brotherly.
Disclaimer: I do not own the ninja turtle franchise, just this plot, and depiction of them.
My first diary! Whoop whoop! Okay, okay, so today I turned 15, right along with my brothers! This was a gift from Sensei, he said I might need it going through the rest of my teenage years. Pfft. 'Coz I'm a girl, right? Wowwww, what a way to exclude and underestimate your only daughter Dad.
I'm Mykal-Ann Gelo Hamato! I know, a really long name. It was a creative way for Sensei to name me after a Renaissance artist like my brothers. Mykal is what I'm normally called, but sometimes my brothers call me Ann or Raph who likes to call me 'Princess'. He knows I hate it when he calls me that!
Anyways, I got a couple other things from my bros as well!
From Leo, I got a whole new set of color pencils and a real sketchbook! In case you didn't know, living in the sewers made it difficult to get these kinds of things! Especially if they're new! Oh, I forgot, we're mutant turtles and our dad is a mutant rat!
... Okay, so it might sound weird. But we're also ninjas! So, I guess it makes us extra weird. Sensei says we're 'extraordinary'. Let's go with that word, 'kay?
Anyways, from Raphie-boy, I got the newest edition of Justice Force and the newest edition of GTA! (Who said a girl couldn't like games and comics anyways?) The GTA thing though was something just between us. If Master Splinter or Leo or Don found out, they'd have Raph's ass for giving me it and mine because I even knew about the violent game, let alone asked about it.
At least Raph thought I was old enough, hmph.
Don gave me/recycled one of his old laptops! It's pretty fast and cool looking, and it's all mine! So awesome! Though Leo said he would be monitoring my search history and such. He's a complete worry-wart.
All my brothers are overprotective of me, I know, I'm cursed here.
OH! I forgot something else! You don't know who my family is! Duh!
Alright, alright, so eldest to youngest big brother!
We're all named after renaissance artists, so first up is Leonardo!
Leo's like a second parent. He's the leader of our team when we go on patrol, and he's so overbearing at times! He's also a neat/clean freak. But he destroys any toaster he touches, so beware of that!
Leo's always fussing over us; more than Master Splinter sometimes. That's the depressing part.
He wears a blue mask (we all have masks that we wear, each with our trademark color), and he fits the color! He's brave and always calm. Dude just has these ice cold amber eyes. Scary! Oh, and he wields freaking twin katana swords; He's the good kind of badass. He also has a very strong sense of honor! Never break it when he's around!
Second up is Raphael, I call him Raph or Raphie though! He hates Raphie so much, I love calling him it, mwahaha!
He wears red and this dude is always angry! He gets mad over the smallest things, I swear! That's why I love pranking and playing with him so much, hehe.
He's got sais, which look like salad tongs (He gets soo pissed when people say that) but he still makes them look badass! The 'tough ass biker' badass!
He's the most protective out of all my brothers though! Believe it or not, he's a Pitbull mixed with a Rottweiler on the exterior but he's nothing but a sweet little Cockapoo on the inside! He gets so lovey-dovey when one of us is hurt or feeling down. Raph really, really doesn't like me and romance at all though. Not like I could ever get it as a mutant turtle but, hey, who knows.
Once, not too long ago, I pointed out that this guy on the cover of a magazine I was ready was pretty hot, and – while all of them got pretty tense, including Sensei – Raph flipped the fucking sewer cover.
I just remember nearly jumping out of my shell with how fast Raph shot up! He literally began to list every single reason why love was horrible and how I'd never even find it. Raph shot me down faster than a nuke.
Of course, I got sad and went to my room nearly crying – because trust me when I said Raph told me every reason why a guy wouldn't like me – and so he came in and completely apologized – I know, a miracle in itself – before telling me every reason why a guy would want me but why they would never get me. One word, Raphael.
Oh yeah, getting off task. Anyway, I got one more big bro; Name's Donatello. Or Don for short, or Donny or – Okay, I'll stop.
Anyways, Don is our resident genius! The guy can make anything out of anything! He makes freaking helicopters and alien tech out of stuff from the nearby junkyard! He's a peaceful and quiet guy, really nice! He plays peacekeeper most of the time and is good company. The guy is super friendly and never has an issue with anyone, but there is a limit. Push the guy too far and – BOOM goes the dynamite. His temper is a scary thing to mess with, he just has such a long fuse.
He's gotta purple mask and wields a stick – err, I mean Bo Staff!
And finally, our Father/Sensei, Master Splinter! He's the rat...
...
Erm, alright but he's really wise! And he's a great dad too! Also, a really good fighter, even though he's really old! Haha, sorry Sensei.
He tries not to exclude me too much from my brothers, but I know he can't help it. I used to get extra training aside from my brothers when I was younger, because girls apparently have a natural disadvantage in fighting...?
I think pops just got overprotective.
He also was the only one to say I should go topside the same time my brothers did – AND WHAT DAD SAYS GOES! WHOO!
Okay, so I had to convince him a bit...
Daddy's girl always gets her way, hehe.
Alright, so I'm a bit mischievous. A girl's gotta fend for herself some way.
But yeah, my brothers were SO against me going with them.
"It's nothing personal Mykal. We just want what's best for you and... well..."
"What tha Brainiac's trynna say is that yer gonna get hurt. End o' story. Yer stayin' down 'ere, where yer safe."
"C'mon, Leo you can't be seriously okay with this?! Bro!"
"Sorry, Mykal. The guys have a point..." I remember that day like it was – Oh wait, it was yesterday... Um, okay, bad example!
But you get my point! Anyways, now I was 15 like my brothers, so I was given all rights to go up top!
No one knows our real birthdays, so we assigned our own! I wanted the one at the end of the year because Winter is such a pretty type of the year...
Anyways, mine is December 4th! Best time too, because that means I get double presents! My birthday is around Christmas!
I've got to go, I hear Raph yelling for me, it's time to go on patrol! Hell yes!
Xx Mykal
So, how was it? Review please! It's writer's candy! And flames will be used to give me longer hot showers!
