Happy (late) Halloween! I know I should be updating my other story, but I needed to get Halloween candy out of my system! This is justa short little fic-let. Enjoy! 2k3 verse; based off of the Sneefee pic where they're all dressed up for Halloween...
Disclaimer: If I owned them, I'd make sure an episode aired every day...
When Raph and Don jump-scared 6-year-old Mike tonight - at the witching hour before Halloween, no less - he screamed so loudly that Splinter came running with his cane raised.
Raph made Donnie tell them what they did while Leo lectured the red-masked turtle quietly, which the latter wasn't happy about. When Splinter was finally satisfied with the explanation, which was told 3 times, he went back to his room to meditate after telling Raph and Don to go back to sleep.
As Mikey was about to go to his own room, though, Leo caught him. "You wanna do somethin' funny?" the eldest asked his brother as he walked him to the kitchen.
Mikey sat across from him at the table with a cup of water. "Whadda you mean?"
"I mean that they need to get pranked back! Like when we trick-or-treat later! I have a great plan! If you wanna do it, that is..."
Mikey smiled mischievously. "Of course I do! And I have a great idea of what you could do to Raph! Wait- are you willing to change your costume?"
Leo nodded hesitantly."I didn't have a good one, anyway." Mike chuckled. "Yeah, just a pair of gloves isn't that original. Anyway, here's what you'll do..."
Everyone was getting ready to go trick-or-treating at 7:00, in their own rooms to get their costumes and bags. Everyone was very excited, since this was the first time they'd gone on their own. Once everyone was at the entrance to finally-they'd kept them secret- show Splinter their costumes, Raph immediately turned and glared at Leo.
The eldest Turtle was wearing a red mask and a pair of Raph's spare sais; he and Mike were trying hard to contain their laughter.
It wasn't working.
Don, ignoring all of this, decided to explain what the all were. "Look, Splinter! I'm a pillow, Raph's a trashbag, Leo's Raph, and-"
"I'm a pizza!" Mike cut in.
Splinter chuckled. "I see... Raphael!" Raph snapped his glaring eyes away form Leo, who kept saying, "I'm Raph! I'm so angry!"
"He can't dress up as me! That's not fair!" the hothead yelled.
"Nuh-uh! Splinter said we could be anything we wanted!" Mike cut in. Again.
Splinter nodded. "This is true, my son. Now, I don't want to hear any more arguing about this. Go get your candy and be home before 8:30. Got it?"
All of the Turtles nodded and ran out.
"Bye, Sensei!"
At about 8:00, after people were starting to close their doors, the Turtles were starting to get ready to go home. Leo, who was in the back with Mike, winked at the orange-clad Turtle. The youngest smile mischievously.
Suddenly, he collapsed melodramatically, causing Donnie and Raph to immediately run to his side.
"Mikey! What happened?! Is he okay?!" Raph demanded to Leo as Don checked Mikey.
"H-he just, I dunno, collapsed! I didn't do anything!"
Don was about to slap Mikey awake, but then the nunchuck-wielding Turtle jumped up and yelled, "BOO!"
The young genius screamed and jumped back, along with Raph.
The oldest and youngest collapsed with laughter as Raph got the joke and growled at them. "You damn meanies! We were worried sick!"
Mikey, wiping a tear form his eye, stuck his tingue out at him. "That's what you get when you scare me on Halloween!" he yelled before he and Leo ran away to the safety of the sewers.
I told you I'm on a sugar-rush, so don't blame me if it's bad. Review in any shape or form, though! Don't care if you flame me; they keep me warm.
