Now Michealangelo or Mikey loved kids but the one currently inside him was wearing on his nerves
the little bundle was not exactly so "little" making the ninja turtle look like a ninja puffer fish ( poison included when mood swings come )but that was to be expected the baby was half crocodile
and it was currently doing its version of a death roll inside his stomach and no matter how much he rubbed the baby refused to relax maybe he should not have drunk that soda ...
after about 20 minutes of trying to get Off the couch Mikey managed to get to his feet to walk around trying not to fall on his stomach
mike grinned at the memory of when he first learned he was pregnant he had half skipped into the dojo to tell everyone when Leo made a quip about him needing to train more because he looked like he was getting "soft" which was just a "nice" was of saying "fat" needless to say a mood kicked in and leo ended up in the weapons rack with a bruised body and ego
and well it was hurtful then it was funny now remembering Leos face when he got kicked into the rack they both apologized to each other later so it was ok now
Mikey looked around the lair looking for his mate
Leatherhead or LH was in his lab preparing everything for when his and Mikeys baby disided to enter the world which Mikey being 9 months was close
Mikey entered the lab and watched LH work enjoying the little show he was getting to him Raphs muscles had NOTHING on LHs...
Mikey went over to the croc and leaned into him affectionatly the baby also seemed to want to show its daddy some love and started kicking at the gators side from inside its mother
LH smiled down at his pregnant mate who gave his trademark grin back LH wanted there hatchling to have that smile that happy-go-lucky smile that brightened the room and eyes that shone like sapphires ...why was the floor wet ?
both mutants watched as a puddle formed under the orange loving turtle till LHs brain kicked in and he scooped the turtle up and settled him on the bed which came just in time as a contraction hit that might have floored Mikey otherwise
LH set up everything they would need hooking Mikey up to a monitor and after a few minutes what he saw frightened him ...the baby's heart rate was low ...
if it did not go back up soon he would be forced to do a C-section to get the baby mutant out
LH waited about 5 minutes
he walked to get some tools and a breathing mask that would fit over the turtles beak and something to put mikey to sleep well he worked giving the fun loving turtle a not so fun poke in the arm where he quickly drifted into sleep
cutting along the hard plastron was tricky but Leatherhead managed to get to the sack that housed the babe and lifted it out not bothering to look at the gender he swiftly cleaned and wrapped the screeching infant and settled it in a warm nest and stitched Michealangelo up
later on Mikey woke up and watched the heartwarming sight of LH giving there baby a bottle the baby had his blue eyes and was mostly turtle in appearance save the ridges that ran down the shell and some on the head and the crocs tail that dangled from outside the blanket that wrapped the child
LH handed the infant to Mikey the baby making fussy noises at having its meal interrupted LH announcing it was a girl
boy April was going to have a field day dressing up this little miracle
and that's going to be her name ...
