Nica was eavesdropping from other side off wall, "Aww...they're finally starting to warm up to each other... Mission half- accomplished...Operation Dinner for Leo into full gear..." Says and then pulls out bag of supplies and accounts for everything. "Cayenne pepper...check...fully charged video camera...check...Leo distracted by meditation..." She then looks over to see Leo deeply meditating...

She then smiles, and walks out with bag in her hand "Check...now to execute my evil plans...mwahaha...good thing it's Pizza night! Leo hates spicy hot food...but he never said no to a little kick...hehe..." She grins to herself.

"What's for dinner?" Nala asked

"Pizza!" Mikey shouted.

"Well pass it over." Raph said impatiently.

"Wait, I think that Nica should be the one to pass the food to everyone, that way we all get a fair share." Nala interrupted. She then glared at Mikey. "What! So I ate 2 pizza's last time, could you just give a turtle a break!?" He whined.

"No!" Everyone shouted at the same time.

Nica passes the slices to each person, putting the prank for Leo on his before handing it to him. "Okay...let's eat!" Leo told everyone. " Mmmmmm...yummy..." Nica said just before suddenly feeling her mouth burning. "Oooohhh...HOT!" She shouts and runs to bathroom, knowing her and Leo's plate had gotten swapped

"What's up with her? Mine tastes fine..." Raph asked confused about Nica's actions, and outburst. "Let's just say, Nica learned valuable lesson... what goes around comes around..." He pauses to chuckle. "...that and don't talk about your next prank victim while they're in the same room..." He finishes.

Everyone started laughing, and they laugh harder as When Nica comes back "Ha, ha...very funny..." She says not too pleased.

"I can't believe you didn't watch or place his pizza in a specific way so that you would know if you got his." Nala told her, and then Mikey added, "Do you ever see me planning my next prank when anyone is near me? Nnnnooooo!"

Raph is still laughing, and Leo is smiling smugly. Nala takes a bite of the prank pizza. "Mmmmm... This taste good, here take mine." Nala says as she passes her plate to Nica. Raph looks at Nala odd. "You like that?"

"Yes." Nala answered him. Then Mikey commented, "She likes um hot. You know like a hot fire of red and green peppers." Nala then looks at Mikey with big eyes, and he gets a big grin on his face "And I think those green and red peppers like her too. Ow…" He finished, as he glares at Raph for hitting him. "I think she might be a red pepper. Hey, Nica what did you put on that pizza?" Raph asked.

"Okay, first of all, l DID put the slices in a noticeable order...somebody moved them in the same order as everyone else's and swapped that cayenne pepper pizza plate with MINE! Of all the plates that could have been swapped, it was my Hawaiian pizza..." Nica told everyone

"Hey Leo, isn't that the plate you got?" Mikey asked. Leo stops chewing his last bite and grins while everyone turns and stares at him. "Hey, you hate pineapple...oh, you picked it off..." Nica says as she realizes something "Hey...you're the one that swapped it...you evil ninja..." She said.

"Hey...nice one...didn't know Mr. Goody two shoes had it in him..." Raph commented.

"It was ninja practice and self-defense...all before patrol...and taught her to be aware of the things going on around her..." Leo says proudly, than goes to stand up, only to have the chair come up with him, as it was super-glued to his shell. Nica then smirks, "Hey Leo...you and that chair getting a little attached now?" She asked as everyone starts laughing as Leo tries in vain to remove the chair from his back.

"Aww shell..." Leo groaned. "Hahaha, Leo…she who laughs last laughs best!" Nala stated. Leo looked her in the eye with a smirk on his face, "Don't think l can't get you back!?" He asked her. "Oh l know you can...but you gotta figure out a way to safely remove superglue from your butt first!...bwahahaha" Nica tells him.

after eating Nala pulled Nica into the sewers a good bit way from the lair. "Do you like Leo the same why I like Raph?" She asked Nica. Nica just stared at her surprised by the question. " About that...well...l guess you could say that...a lot of people think that l like Mikey that way because l'm so much like him in many ways, but to be honest, l see Leo all serious and stuff all the time, and l just want to be there to remind him it's okay to let loose and have fun...even downright evil sometimes...all work and no play makes Leo a very boring turtle...and that's where l become his other half l guess..." She admits as she starts to blush. "Tell him l said any of this, and l will find a way to make you wish you were mute kiddo! No pressure..." She tells Nala.

Nala starts to chuckles. "You are safe with me. Well, now that I know that, and am not ready to rip heads off, I am going to ask Donnie help me with that stupid leather. Have fun with Leo." Nala tells Nica.

"Yeah...he should be about halfway done removing his glue anyway...wonder what form of torture he'll come up with on that...hehe..." Nica said as Nala left.

Nala walked into the lab and saw Donnie working on something. "Donnie, can you help me with this leather?" She asked him. "Ya, just let me finish this." He answered he as he finishes screwing a bolt. "Okay, so what are you trying to do?" He asked Nala. Nala walked over to the table she was using earlier in the day. "I am trying to bind the leather it fit my swords. It is the correct size to, but I cannot get it to bend and stay that way." She tells him.

"Hmm... Did you souk it in water first?" He asked Nala. Nala just looked at the Leather. "No, did I need to do that?" She responded. Donnie sighed, "You need to get the leather wet in order to soften in, and then it will bend how you want it. Once you have it how you want it you have to make sure it dry's that way, and it will stay in that shape." He told her.

Nala just looks at the leather. "Thank you." She tells him. Later Nica walks in. "Hey NALA...oh, l see you got the tough leather to soften up...think that method will work on Raph for softening him up?" Nica said as she started laughing at what she had just said. "I don't now, Raph can be a little harder than leather at times." Donnie tells Nica.

Nala starts blushing, "You...I am not sure...How would that even work?" She asked them. "Drag him into the sewers and push him into the water, through water balloon at him, hey, even demanding to go to that bathroom when he is showering." Donnie answered her.

"All of those things are going to make him mad, you guys realize that, right?" she asked them questioning their sanity. Both of them say "Yes."

"And then he will chase you, and probably tackle you, maybe even in you. Once he realizes the position, he will either get up nerves, or offer you hand, of he will make a move. If he gets nerves, then you can make the move." Donnie tells Nala.

Nala looks down at the leather, "Maybe that could work..." Nala tells them. Both Nica and Donnie smile.

Raph was right around the corner listening in "hmmm..." He thinks as he walks away. "This gives me an idea." As he is putting his plan together Nica walks in. "Raph...what are you up to now? l know that look, and it spells TROUBLE in capital letters..." Nica asks him. "You oughtta know, since that's your middle name..." He tells her.

"No, my middle names Crazy...l get to change it whenever l want, so it works for me!" Nica tells him with the most cheeky face. "Yeah...whatever..." He says as he gets back to his plan. "Have fun being a troublemaker you troll!" Nica says with a wink.

*************************************************************************************Raph walks into the room Nala is in, "Hey, Nala, I have something for you." Raph Says. Nala turns around To look at Raph, "What is it?" She asks him. Raph, whom is holding a wet scarf behind his back, "You need to come over here to get it." He tells her. She starts to walk over to Raph, "Really?" She says.

"It's a scarf, How about I…" Raph starts, but then Mikey shouts, "IT'S WET!" Nala looks at him "What!"

"Mikey!" Raph shouts as he starts chasing Mikey around the living room, "Raph! Stop chasing Mikey!" Nala shouts as they run towards her. Mikey splits off and Raph tackles Nala, pinning her. "Ahh, Raph get off of me!" She shouts. Raph just smirks, "I have you pinned." He points out.

Nala looks up, "You have something up your shell, don't you?" she asked him. Raph starts blushing, "I think you will like what I'm planning." He tells her. Nala starts blushing as well, "What is that?" She asked him. Raph leans down and kisses Nala and Nala Kisses Raph back.

Other room looking in on them is Leo and Mikey. "His plan actually worked." Leo said kind of surprised by it. "Well du, We have been trying to get them together for a bit now." Mikey tells Leo. Leo looks down, "Ya, I guess we have." Mikey grins widely, "Hehehe, I think you need some help with your love life too."

"You say out of it! I will do what I do, and she will do what she does." Leo tells him. Nica sneaks up behind them and asks them "Who'll do what who does now?" She starts laughing hysterically as Leo and Mikey both nearly jump out of their shells. "Yup...definitely ninja if l can surprise a ninja..." She tells them.

"Not bad...definitely improvement in your training skills..." Leo told her. Nica starts feeling a little deflated by Leo's comment. "Cool...l guess...well, I'm gonna try to beat Mikey's score at MARIO CART...now that I've had my daily dose of "NINJA SURPRISE" tactics blown off..." She tells him and walks away.

"Well? How'd he react..." April asked Nica as she walked into the living room. Nica looked at her. "Freakin' doodle- dandy...l wish he would ask me out...but I'm not gonna do it for him...l believe the guy should make the first move..." Nica told her.

"That sounds a little traditional...April commented. Nica looked at her like she must be joking "Have you failed to notice the way his formal traditional approach to things like this?" Nica asked April. "Fair point..." April admitted.
