Ch. 1-Jealous Much?

Raphael Hamato was jealous. Now, jealousy was nothing new to the emerald green turtle. He'd felt it many times before, most of the time towards his older 'perfect' brother the Fearless Leader, but it was nothing new. This time it was not his jealousy that was bothering him, instead it was who he was jealous of. Yes, for Raphael Hamato the toughest and strongest of the turtles was jealous…of Donatello Hamato.

And the reason behind this sudden bout of jealousy? A little lizard mutant with long brown hair and beautiful brown eyes. Mona Lisa. For the first couple of days everything had been going great, until Donnie had given her a tour of his lab. After that it seemed like the two of them were always together. Mona's incredibly wide range of knowledge finally gave Don someone that he could actually talk science to and the brunette seemed more than happy to listen. They made inventions, carried out experiments, reverse engineered Krang technology and Raphael was left behind, feeling strangely at a loss.

His other brothers hadn't noticed or if they did, which is more likely, they didn't say anything. Leo sat next to Raph on the couch and Mikey lay down on the floor in front of the television as they watched Super Robo Mega Force. The three of them looked up when the door to the Lab opened and Don and Mona stepped out. "So, who wants to see our new invention?" Donnie asked as he put an arm around Mona's shoulder in an awkward sideways hug.

All Raph saw was red, his brother's words echoing in his head as he stood, pushing his way past Leo growling "I'm going out."

Leonardo watched concerned as his younger brother stormed out of the lair before turning back to Mona Lisa. She looked worried and maybe even a little bit disappointed. The young female lizard turned to Donatello. "Donnie maybe we'll show to them later. I'm going after Raph, he seemed really upset." Mona ran into her room at the end of the hall and grabbed her gear: a belt, a t-phone, some shuriken and short curved sword.


It was raining but tonight that was the least of my worries. Right now I needed to talk to Raph. Only problem is I'll have to find him first. I use my fingers to brush my bangs out of my face as I think to myself: Where would he go? Wherever there's trouble, my mind graciously supplied and I shook my head. No, where would Raph go if he needed to talk? More importantly who would he go to? Casey. I scurried from one rooftop to the next, heading directly for Casey's apartment. I was about to head on over when I spotted something green in the alleyway between the dumpsters. Raph?

I went towards him and he tensed before realizing who it was. "Oh. Hey Mona."

"What are you doing out here Raph?" I asked.

"Casey wasn't home." He replied. waving a hand at the window of Casey's room.

I stared at his hand, taking note of his bloody knuckles. "Yeah I can tell." I stated dryly as I grabbed it gently, while at the same time being careful not to touch the torn flesh. "What did you do? Get in a fight with the wall?" The red-banded turtle was silent and I sighed. "You can't keep fighting walls, Raph. They'll always win."

Raphael smiled, his green eyes glowing mischievously. "Heh, that wall may have gotten me a little bit banged up, but I totally kicked its butt."

I rolled my eyes, only Raph could fight a wall and claim victory. "I'm sure." I said sarcastically.

We sat against the wall of the alley before I spoke again, "Raph, is there something bothering you? You've been acting distant the last couple of days? Did I do something that upset you?" I asked quietly.

Bright green eyes filled with emotion turned towards me, then down to the ground. "No, Mona, you didn't do anything wrong. It's just that you've been spending so much time with Donnie, doing all your nerdy brainiac experiments and stuff…"

My stomach churned with nervousness when he started speaking but as his voice began to fade my eyes filled with mirth. "Raphael Hamato, are you jealous?" I asked with a teasing smile on my face.

"Of course I am! Ever since that brainiac showed you his lab you've been spending all your time with him! Of course I'm jealous!" He stated, his eyes never leaving the ground throughout his confession.

I smiled endearingly at him and my heart fluttered. I stroked the side of his face with my hand lovingly, leaning in so I could nuzzle the side of his face. "You don't need to be." I whispered into his ear, before pressing my beak to his. The kiss was chaste and soft, only lasting for a split second. I lay my head against his plastron as he held me close. For a while we just sat there and forgot about our surroundings. We just stayed there in the rain, letting it pour down on us as we sat with smiles on our faces.


I thought this would be a nice little chapter to kind of ease into the sequel. Let me know what you guys think! Thank you for reading!
