My 1st TMNT sister fic, hope you enjoy! Don't be afraid to give your opinion, read my profile, I need all the help I can get! You know the drill, peps- I own nothing, except my OCs, I never will own this franchise, but if I did, at least I'd keep the origin story straight. (Michael Bay Hater over here!)
Prologue
As the worst song ever, Friday by Rebecca Black, blared through my room, my first thought was, Mikey. I didn't have to be a genius like my brother Donnie to know that my other brother Mikey must have set my iPod Touch to play that horrible song. I was soooo gonna kill that turtleā¦
I groaned as I jumped outta bed to get ready for school, when all I wanted was to stay in my warm bed. Despite the fact that my family and me live in a SEWER, it was actually really warm, thanks to our techno genius, my 3rd oldest brother Donatello, aka Donnie. I have 3 other brothers, who are all mutant turtles, and my sensei/grandfather, a giant mutant rat named Splinter. As for me, I'm a regular human, 11 years old with long brown hair and blue eyes, but my 2nd oldest brother Raphael, aka Raph, claims that there's no way someone as weird as me can be human, which I usually respond with a punch in his arm.
After getting dressed, I walked downstairs to the kitchen to find Michaelangelo, aka Mikey and my immediate brother, having an argument with Raph over whether wrestling or sci-fi is better. I rolled my eyes as they completely ignored me and I grabbed the cereal box on top of the fridge.
"Sci-fi is the best thing EVER!" Mikey growled. "In your dreams, shell-for-brains!" Raph snapped back. "How about you both shut up for once?" I moaned. They both looked up at me, finally noticing I was there eating breakfast.
Mikey smiled, "Hey D what's up?" Raph smacked Mikey in the head (trust me, you're gonna see a lot of that) and said, "Morning, Dani, and I don't think Mikey's capable of shutting up." "If Leo were here, he'd put you both in your place. Now where is he?" Raph and Mikey both rolled their eyes and mumbled, "Leo's pet."
Leonardo, aka Leo, is my eldest brother and our leader. He came strolling in at that moment with Donnie at his back. He smiled and rubbed my hair saying, "Morning, little ninja, these two bugging you?" and I nodded. (Oh, I should probably mention- We are all ninjas. Just throwing that out there.) Donnie laughed and said, "Uh-oh, you two should really know better than to bother DANI." Mikey looked nervous, but Raph just punched Leo's shoulder and nudged me in the arm. "Hey, I wouldn't dream of buggin my little sister, would I, D?" "Don't make me get my sword, Raphie", was my response that sent Leo, Donnie, and Mikey into a laughing fit. Raph grumbled about the impossibility of little girls as he stormed to the fridge to grab the orange juice. I laughed as I looked around at my four crazy big brothers.
Mikey is the youngest and ACTS the youngest. He's the least serious, is a total prankster, and loves video games, comics, and pizza. Whenever one of us is down, it's Mikey who makes a joke or pulls a prank to get us laughing. Ikey, as I call him, is a major pain, gets into mischief a lot, especially with Raph, but is so silly, funny, and innocent you gotta love him.
Donnie, as I said, is the genius of the group. He loves nothing more than to sit in his lab all day and tinker with machines to see how they work and how he can improve them. Don-Don made all our phones, my iPod, the T.V.'s, and anything else mechanical in our home that we call the lair. Not only is he smart, but he's sweet, reliable, and the 'doctor' of us all. If I ever need help with my homework, or if I'm hurt or sick, or if I've broken something, I know Donnie always will help me no matter what else he's doing at the time.
The real tough guy of my family is Raph. Ever since we were kids, Raphie has always been the strong, hot-headed, angry turtle. He constantly fights with Leo, constantly gets himself into trouble, but he's passionate, loyal, and considers himself the silent protector of our family. He's my best friend ever, which gets extremely complicated at times (I'll explain in a bit), but while he'd never show it, he does have a softer side. He's protective of me and Mikey especially, since we are the babies, and would do anything for his brothers, sister, and father, Master Splinter.
Last but never least is the "fearless", as Raph calls him, leader Leo. Lee-lee is definitely the most serious out of all of us. He's quiet, gentle, and, I think, the most dedicated leader ever. He takes his responsibility very seriously, and is always there when we need him most. Unfortunately, he has two distinct flaws: 1) He is constantly fighting with Raph, and the two of them are ALWAYS pulling me into the middle since I'm Raph' best friend and Leo's little pupil or "pet". 2) He is MAJORLY overprotective, mainly of me. He sounds more like a mom than a 15-year-old boy (as he and the other three are supposed to be, though Raph and Mikey often act younger and Leo and Donnie act older than their real age). He panics if he doesn't know where I am, if I don't text or call him, if I'm late, etc. Frankly, it gets real old, real fast.
As I was staring into space as usual, I was brought back by Mikey saying, "Looks like you're gonna be late, D!" I swiftly got up and grabbed my bookbag, it was 7:15, school starts at 7:45. Leo stopped my mad rush for the door, and I rolled my eyes as I turned to him and said, "Yes, I have my cell, my sword, my homework, lunch, and I promise to text you when I get to school. Like you could let me forget, Mom." Leo rolled his eyes and said, "Be home by 5 for training." "I will", I smiled and hugged each of my brothers, "Tell sensei I'll see him after school, okay? Bye, bros!" And with that I ran out the door.
Ok, give me your opinions! Let me know if I should give up or keep going! Stay Gold!
