Hey guys! I thought about it and decided that - ya know what?- SCREW realism. They have lunch together. Screw it. Mikey's still 13. The guys are still the same. Fuck reality.
Also if you haven't noticed, this contains a bit of language. Every once in a Easter egg that no one finds till 4 years later, but still. It's there.

Donnie P.O.V
As I begin to walk to school with my brothers and friends I realize it's been a whole week of school. Time flies.
We give some small talk here and there and finally we reach our destination. Everyone says later and we split up to our separate periods. As I get to my first period, Science, I hear some kids laughing. I instantly recognize the voices. I groan inwardly to my self and turn to see Jai and his crew.
Jai Kroff- the school bully. He goes by Tiger Claw, he established the nickname because once he sliced a kid's face with a pocket knife, the kid now has a permanent scar but because Jai's mom is a judge and his dad is powerful and in government he got away, saying it was their old crew member; Dorian Florence, the guy went to Juvenal for it. And of course, no one listens to the people at our school, including me. But everyone knows is real first name, but say Jai in front of him and your dead meat. His Crew-they are a bunch of nasty guys who do all the beating up and name calling for Jai. They are three main guys I am familiar with.
Xavier Shoulden is a tall, lengthy guy. He is shorter than be by about 2 inches but has a mouth on him that earned him the nickname 'BeeBop', mainly because hes loud, a complete jerk, and he wears techno themed clothing and knows music backwards and forwards.
Next is Richard Felon, or 'Rock Steady', he earned this name because he's a walking bulldozer. This guy is stronger than Raph, but Raph beats him any day, no problem.
Finally, Chris Bradford, he just goes by Brad and his parents are material arts artists, like our Dad used to be before Mom... you know. Once she died Dad had to forget the dojo and get a better job, get more jobs.
Jai and his 'Crew' have been bulling and teasing me and Mike as almost as if we're weaklings, ever since 6th grade, and you can guess that they followed us to high school... Wonderful. But Raph and Leo always beat them back up and comfort us in the end.
"Hey Nerd!", yelled a Xavier. They were obviously laughing about me, I could hear their obnoxious noises from behind me, but I got used to it.
I roll my eyes and go into my class. Ignoring them is the only way I can keep myself calm and out of trouble.
Mikey P.O.V
The bell rings and I automatically know its lunch. I walk into the lunch area to see Donnie notice me and wave me over. I walk over and casually sit next to them with a smile on my face. April and Casey are busy helping a friend, Irma, get her things together for one of her classes. She's in Advanced classes and they already have science projects. Jackie has detention for throwing a paper airplane, totally hilarious by the way!
I'm about to start talking about it - until I am covered from waist up in the lunch the school's serving, the tray sits on my hair. I see Leo and Raph glaring daggers at the culprit, both jumping up, Don got ready to start with me, to attempt to console me. As usual it's Jai. Raph gets up and rolls his sleeves up getting ready to start a fight. I hear nothing until I feel my cheeks heat up along with the laughter of the school.I get up and run as far as I can and into the restrooms.
I lean against the sink and began to feel hot tears streaming from my cheeks to inside the sinks rim. I cry. 'why don't they just leave me alone!' I shout in my head. Then, the restroom doors flies open revealing Donnie,Raph,and Leo.
"Mikey..."Starts Leo. He walks over and hugs me. I'm real short, around 5'3, 5'4. I snuggle into his chest, Leo doesn't seem to care I'm covered in cafeteria food, something I'm happy about, I needed this. I felt like a baby that needed to be coddled by my brothers but I didn't care! I was just tired of everything.
Donnie comes over with a paper towel and starts cleaning my face and shirt. Then, to cover the stains, gives me his jacket and hugs me.
"It's OK Mikey ignore them. They don't know shit about you, you're better than this."Raph says with anger noticing me with tear stains on my face.
I sniff and say,"Why can't they just leave me alone and get a life!"I say still crying a bit. I was sick of them. They did this to everyone, including Don! What did anyone ever do to them?
"Mikey they don't have one that's why." Leo said it so confidently that I felt better instantly. He gave me a warm, protective hug. Raph ruffles my mop that I call hair. Then we break our hug and I wipe my tears and smile.
Then, I see Jai and his 'crew' come in. I don't cower but wish I could, Don hugged me protectively, glaring scary daggers at Jai and his crew. Raph clenches his fists, he goes straight for the punch to Jai's jaw, Leo holds him Raph's stronger. Raph breaks free and is in seconds on top of Jai, Xavier and Brad threw Raph down, Raph jumps up and begins punching. He has Xavier and Brad down in minutes before starting on Jai, this whole time Leo was shouting at Raph, finally, something got through.
"Raph,"Says Leo pulling him back. Raph's chest heaving from the fight.
"He's not worth our time."Leo states coldly with voice so venomous it could kill.
My brother's and me leave the restroom, Jai being helped up by Richard, before Richard was helping up the others. My brothers got me out quickly, Raph cheerfully naming words from his colorful vocab. I tugged on his sleeve shyly.
".. ,Those motherf- ..Mikey.." A sad look in his eyes was there, he looked into my baby blues and the fact that a mini ocean was building up in there.
"Raph please, let's just go to class. It-It's not worth it." I said, man I sounded like such a wuss! But I couldn't help it. My voice was so shaky, I almost sounded like one of those over- exaggerating actors playing sad roles. I was literally just embarrassed in front of the entire school.
Raph just looked at me, then at Don and Leo, they shared a look so fast, I didn't even bother trying to decode my brothers' language.
Raph P.O.V
My baby brother. Of course, it's always Mike! Always him! My brother has always had a eccentric personality, we all know that, but that's what makes him Mikey, I wish people would just leave him alone. He's a good guy, all he wants to do is help others and all he gets back from the world is being fucked over and shitted on my people. My baby bro, the one I'm supposed to protect. And he was crying.
'I am going to murder the next face I see that belongs to one of those fuckers.' I thought, every emotion running through my head was on a repeat.
Anger.
Sympathy.
Protectiveness.
I don't want him to have a chance of being beaten by Jai and his group of assholes... I walk him to his period. I share a look with the others, they understand and before we separate they each show a gesture of love and affection to Mikey.
Leo walked over to Mike,
"Don't let them bring you down Mikey. OK? You know I hate it when you're upset right?"
"Yeah." He said this whilst sniffling.
He ruffled Mikey's hair and gave him a small look before walking to his class.
Don brushed his curly mop of hair back while saying, "I know Mike. I know. Just-" He paused. I can tell he was reliving it when he was in that same position.
He hugged Mike and murmured something I couldn't make out, but I can tell Mikey was relaxed by whatever it was he said 'cause the tension flooded out of him visibly.
"Let's go Mike." I told him this as Don walked away, following Leo. Mikey nodded, his head down, hands in his pockets.
We stopped at his locker so he can get his books.
"Thanks.. for protecting me." he said sadly and quietly.
" Look Mikey, that's my job. To protect my brothers.. especially my baby bro."I say as I put a fist up. He does too and we do a fist pump.
He smiles.
I smile.
