Chapter 1.
April walked into the turtle's lair. Mikey was playing video games and Raph was practicing his fighting skills. She couldn't see Leo and Donnie. "Hey Mikey." April said casually. Mikey looked up from his game and smiled "Hi! Come play this game with me. Bet you can't beat my high score!"
April was amused by this "maybe later"
"Awesome!" Mikey said happily.
April went over to Raph and said "Hey have you seen Leo and Donnie?" Raph stopped hitting the practice dummy and said "Donnie is in the lab, probably about to blow something up. AGAIN!" He didn't seem to appreciate with Donnie's experiments to find a retro mutagen. He continued "Leo's probably in his room reading his precious comic books." April said thanks and began thinking about who she was going to visit first. In the end she decided to see what Donnie was up to first. Then she would see Leo.
She walked into Donnie's Lab and found Donnie muttering about how he will find a retro mutagen if its the the last thing he does. April admired him for his commitment to find a cure for her dad. "Hey Donnie!" Donatello looked up from his mixtures and looked at April and smiled " Oh Hey April! Come over here so i can show exactly what i'm doing ." April walked over and said "so show me what you've done" Donnie started explaining what he was doing in a boasting way. After the first few sentences ( which were VERY long) April stopped paying attention and said uh huh every now and again. She looked at the mixtures one of them was changing from green to pink and what seemed like smoke was coming out of it. "uh Donnie are the mixtures supposed to do that!" Donnie stopped mid sentence and looked at the test tube. "Oh no. Duck April!" Donnie and April pretty much fell on the floor before you could say 123. After laying on the floor for 30 seconds April said"Shouldn't it have done something by now" Donnie looked at her " no in exactly 5 seconds that test tube will go..." BOOM! the room shook for a few seconds. When it was quiet again April stood up and looked at the now partly black desk. "Well that was interesting." She commented. " Wow if you didn't notice that we would be extremely burnt!" April smiled and said " well i'm glad no one was hurt. Do you want me to help clean up?" Donnie was so happy that she cared enough about him to ask. " Thanks that would be helpful." He and April began cleaning the desk and broken glass. Isn't she so pretty(he was thinking the whole time)and kind. The way she smiled always brightened up his days no matter how bad. Before they knew it the Lab was clean and ready for Donnie's next attempt. April started slowly walking to the door "thanks Donnie for trying your best" She said as she walked. Donnie had to say something before she left he ran in fount of her and held her hand "Don't worry April i will find a cure. I promise." he nearly whispered the last part. April looked into his eyes and smiled. Donnie let go of her hands and she walked out of the Lab. Donnie was already missing her company.
