here you go :) don't ask what i did to them xDDDD just don't die! *preps medical team*


"...Come back here so I can turn you into jelly!"

Leo chuckled where he watched from the dojo, leaning against the wall. Raph had fallen asleep on the cough and snoring like he did and was a heavy sleeper he never woke up when Mikey tied his hands so that Raph hung in the air, covering the floor with newspapers Mikey got out blue, red and black dye and started to work.

The eldest had been watching the whole time even when he was supposed to train with Splinter, their attention had been turned to Mikey, both had been grinned the whole time. Then Donnie came out and slapped his hands over his mouth...

Mikey was turning Raph in to super Mario!

When he was done he placed Raph on the cough again and that's how he looked like when he woke up 20 minuets later...Shooting up he ran after Mikey and things went from there. As they ran past Leo a second time he swiftly caught Raph with one arm and chuckled warmly, Raph could feel it "Let's get that paint off before it dries, then you can chase him".

"Why can't I do it now?!"

"It's not just your front he painted"

"MIKEY!"

Leo managed to pull Raph to the bathroom and helped him get his gear off, threw them in the washing machine and found Donnie by the door holding clean pads, belt and mask. Giving their thanks and a ruffing from Raph he left saying he could punish Mikey by dragging him for a scavenging hunt with Splinter. Nodding they gave their approve, being the over-protecting turtles.

"Shower or bath tub?"

"Do I look like a kid?"

"You're going to need help with your back"

"Point taken...Shower...You've been training again haven't you?" "Ya?"

"No wonder you smell" Raph grinned and mock waved his hand in his face, Leo grinned and tossed a towel on his brother.


"GAH! That tickles!"

"Sorry, but Mikey paint your whole shell, some of the paint has gotten in between the plates"

"Be honest...Where you laughing?"

"Donnie had to do CPR on me"

"WHAT?! You got heart attack?"

"I laughed to hard, my sides still hurt when I breath"

Raph grinned as he washed off the paint from his front and his face, they had placed a hand mirror in the shower so Raph could see his face where the paint was. Leo washed the shell and where Raph couldn't reach. They joked and laughed...Never arguing.

The past days had been tense for them all with all the crime suddenly rising, to say that the boys were exhausted was a bit weak...They were over tired with all the late night 2 weeks in a row, so in a way, Mikey's prank did lift some spirits around the lair. Sneaking a glare in the mirror Raph could see Leo's dark brown eyes almost sparkle a little, his own ember eyes had a small fire in them...

Both were feeling calm even thou they had had close calls with bullets and a bike almost killing them.

"There, all paint gone!" Leo said and placed the cloth to dry off while he showered, Raph stepped out to fry him self "Leo...When was the last time he had a fight?"

"..."

"Ya don't remember do ya? The years are finally catching up to you old- HOMF!"

Leo had tossed the soap bar and it slammed it self right in Raph's mouth with part of it sticking out, that set him off laughing like mad again and slid to his knees. Raph sit the soap bar out and saw the tear fall from Leo's eyes, going to the sink he washed his mouth *Glad to see him laugh once in a while*. Once they were done they called it a night and went to their rooms, hearing the lair door open, close and small chatter they fell in a restful sleep knowing they didn't have to panic that their family was late.

Raph smiled when he remember that both incidences had brought a smile to his big brother's face...*But he is turning a bit old thou...Do turtles get wrinkles?*
