Mikey's Prank
Mikey rubbed his hands together in anticipation. This was going to be his best prank yet!
Master Splinter, Leo, and Don were all out training together, like Mikey, Raph, and Splinter would be in a few hours.
Raph was asleep, and nothing could ever disturb him when he slept. Mikey wondered how he could ever sleep through everything. Perhaps he had simply grown immune to his brother's loudness and was able to sleep through anything. Except when someone shook him awake. That's what weirded Mikey out.
His wondering aside, Mikey took a little round tub of something brown and powdery and started tapping the side of it, trying to get it all even.
When it was, he took out a little brush and grinned evilly. He opened up the tub and covered the little brush with the brown powder and rubbed it all over Raph's face. He stifled wild laughter and walked back to his "evil lab" (aka his room), where more "evil" things awaited Raph.
Earlier, April had visited the turles and had accidentally left her make-up bag there. (For some odd reason unknown to me, she'd brought it…) When Mikey had seen it, a brilliant idea had popped into his head. He would give one of his bros a make-over. Of course all of them would know who did it, but at least they'd get a laugh out of it. However, Mikey would pay dearly for doing this to Raph.
Mikey took April's eyeliner out of her bag and put it on his bed. Next was lipstick. Then eyeshadow. Then mascara.
The orange-clad tutle grabbed all of his "evil" ingredients to carry out his "evil" plan and walked back to where Raph was sleeping.
He wasn't sure what went on after the powdery stuff, so he put eyeliner on around his brother's eyes. He'd kinda forgotten Raph already had a type of "eyeshadow," but he put it on his brother's mask anyway. After that was done, he moved onto the mascara.
Then realized his brother didn't really have eyelashes.
"Man!" Mikey groaned inwardly. This was harder than he thought it would be, and he walked back to his room, defeated.
However, he spied the lipstick on his bed. Perhaps the day was not a complete loss.
After Mikey had finished the masterpiece with lipstick on his brother's face, he remembered April had nail polish in her bag. "SCORE!" Mikey thought.
He took out the "evil" nail polish and started laughing maniacally like a mad scientist as he created another masterpiece, this time with nail polish.
After he was done, he gathered up his "evil" materials and put them back in April's bag. Then he put it back where he'd found it.
He turned on the TV and lounged on the couch, eating pizza. He acted as innocently as he could, knowing that any moment, Leo and Don would walk in with Master Splinter. He couldn't wait to see their reactions to Raph's make-over.
The TV lulled Mikey to sleep as he waited for two of his older brothers and his father.
"Hey, where's Raph?" Donny asked, shaking Mikey awake.
"Mm…What?" Mikey asked groggily, getting up off the couch.
Don and Leo looked at Mikey, confused. "Uh…Where's Raph?" Donny recovered.
"He's sleeping," Mikey said. He woke up, and lead the way to where Raph was, hoping that Raph's make-over would make Leo and Donny laugh.
When they got to where Raph was, Mikey's eyes boggled. He was normal!
There was no trace of the powdery stuff, eyeshadow, eyeliner, lipstick, or even nail polish!
"Wha?" Mikey exclaimed.
"Joke's on you, Mikey!" Raph laughed, tossing a mirror to his brother.
Mikey looked into it and gasped. He was the one who'd gotten a make-over! But it was even worse than what he'd done to Raph!
He didn't even recognize himself. He was wearing a curly blond wig, with bright red lipstick, eyeliner, and every other make-up that girls wear on their faces.
He dropped the mirror which broke.
"That's seven years bad luck, Mikey," Raph grinned evilly.
"No! NO! I'm too young!" Mikey screamed, running out of the lair.
"Mikey!" Donny called.
"NO!" Mikey yelled as he ran away.
"Mikey! Wake up, Mikey!" Donny shook his little brother awake.
"What?" Mike woke up and felt his head. There was no curly blond wig. Did that mean he'd just woken up in his dream and had a nightmare? "Donny, what's going on?"
"Leo went to get Raph so you and he can train with Master Splinter. Where is he?"
"Asleep," Mikey replied. "I'm not dreaming again, am I?" Donny whacked him on the head. "OW!"
"That answer your question?"
"Yeah…"
"What the shell?" Leo's voice came from Raph's room.
Mikey and Donny ran to where Leo was standing.
What they saw made all of them laugh so hard their sides hurt.
Raph was sleeping on his bed and he looked totally ridiculous.
His face was covered in brown powder and all over that were lipstick scribblings. On his shell was a mural that separated the sections of his shell by a pattern of pink, purple, and silver.
As the three rolled on the ground laughing, Master Splinter came in and walked over to his sons.
"What is this?" he asked.
Unable to say anything, the three turtles pointed to Raph.
The old rat raised his eyebrows and looked at Mikey. "Michelangelo…" he said.
"Yes, Master Splinter?" Mikey answered, getting up and wiping tears of mirth from his eyes.
"Did you do this to Raphael?"
"Do what to Raphael?" Raph asked, waking up.
"Uh…Nothing, Raph!" Mikey said.
"Mikey, what did you do?" Raph demanded, getting off of his bed.
"I don't think you want to know, Raphy-boy!" Mikey ran away from his brother.
"Leo, what did he do?"
"Um…I think you should go and see, Raph…" Leo said, trying hard not to laugh out loud.
"Why can't anyone make sense around here?" Raph muttered as he sauntered to the bathroom.
He looked into the mirror and yelled, "MIKEY!"
"Oh, shell! He's onto me!" Mikey said, sprinting away.
"GET BACK HERE!" Raph ran after his younger brother and tackled him, punching him.
"Raph, cut it out!" Mikey yelled. "Donny, help me!"
"Uh…I think I'm just gonna…leave now…" Don said, backing away.
"Good idea," Leo agreed.
"No! Bros! Come back!"
"You're gonna pay for this, Mikey!" Raph yelled.
Mikey slipped out of his brother's grasp and ran, screaming, out of the lair, with Raph close on his heels.
