Third chapter! Please enjoy!

Disclaimer: I don't own it now, I'll never will. I don't own the song too

The song that is used in this story is called 'It's only the fairy tale'. It is used in this anime called My-HIME by Alyssa Sears. I kind of change the lyrics a bit. Changing girls to boys and twelve to four to match the story.

Warning:

Brotherly fluff and cuteness!


"Shh…!", said Leo

"I know, I know", whispered Mikey

"Shut up guys", whispered Raph

The three boys are hiding under a bush in the castle's garden

Leo groaned inwardly to himself. How did his brothers convinced him to do this? It was 2 after their birthday and they just turned 11. Mikey somehow convinced Raph to go to the surface with him to meet their real father and those two convinced Leo to go with them.

All Their ninja hard work had paid off as the three boys got in to the castle's garden without anybody noticing.

"What do we do now?", asked Mikey

"I dunno. It was yer plan after all", hissed Raph, hitting Mikey in the back oh his head

"Oww", Mikey rubbed his bald head where Raph had hit him

"You guys, maybe we should go-" Leo was about to say 'go back' but he heard a song their father, Master Splinter, always sang to them every night

"Shh! Lister to that!", whispered Mikey

"Who are the little boys in pain?

Just trapped in the castle of dark side of moon

Four of them shining bright in vain

Like flower that blossom just once in years"

They followed the song until the found a little boy with brunette hair. He's wearing a white shirt with red ties and a short black pants. He was playing with a purple ball

"They're dancing in the shadows like whisper of love

Just dreaming of a place where they're free as dove

They've never been allowed to love in this cursed cage

It's only the fairy tale they believed"

Mikey and Raph watched the boy with awe. He got a pretty voice! But Leo watched with horror. Their mother makes the song for them! Only six persons know this song! Three out of these six people are them, next is Master Splinter and father and their mother. How did this boy know this song? Unless he's…! He swallowed and watched the boy who's still singing the same song with wide eyes; clenching and unclenching his hands.

Leo was snapped out of his thought when he heard a crack and found Mikey stepping over a branch. He wanted to lecture him for being so sloppy, but the boy stopped singing and looked at the bush where they're hiding.

"Who's there?", asked the boy, his voice sounded so young. It was high-pitched and it held curiosity and bravery in them.

None of them said anything. The boy walked to the bush slowly. Leo wanted to signal their brother to run, but this boy knows the song and there's only one boy who lived in the castle. It's Prince Donatello. And Prince Donatello means their brother, and Leo knows exactly how old he is. Six year 5 Months and 18 days. His birthday isn't in another 6 months and 13 days. So talking to him won't hurt, right? He's still 6 years 5 months and 18 days, so he's probably gonna forget about them in a week.

His brothers were looking at him; waiting for a signal. Leo swallowed once more and opened his mouth…

"Stop right there", he said in a hoarse voice

Donatello stopped in his track and looked around; trying to find the source of the voice. His face was full of curiosity and surprise but he can't see any fear there

"Who are you?", Donatello asked with his high-pitched voice

"Leo, what are ye doin'?", hissed Raph

"It's Don…", he said simply

"You mean…", whispered Mikey with excitement. A full grin formed on his face and Leo never seen his so happy before

"Hello?", asked Donatello, taking a step closer to them

"Do you wanna play with us?", asked Mikey suddenly, voice high because of the excitement and the 'I-CAN'T-WAIT' expression on his face

Donatello was surprised by the new voice and the question itself but he answered "Sure"

"But promised us you won't freak on us and tell the adults", said Raph

Donatello was once surprised again by the new voice and question. Freak out? Why would he freak out? But he wanted to play with his new friends so he answered, "I won't freak out, but why can't I tell mommy and daddy?"

"Adult doesn't really like us", answered Leo

He pondered on the answer for a while

"Sure, I won't tell anybody", he said "We can play here or in my room"

The three boys shared a grin

"Do you want to play pirates with me?", he asked suddenly "I've always wanted to play pirates, but I don't have anyone to play with"

"Sure", said Mikey with the same high-pitched voice he used before

Leo slowly got up and the boy gasped and looked at him with wide eyes

Leo almost, almost, thought that this was a bad idea

"Why are you in costume?", asked Donatello "Or are you a real turtle?"

"We're kinda a half-human and a half-turtle", said Mike, who too got up with Raph

Heavy silence filled the garden until Donatello suddenly ran up to Raph and hugs him. He was touching everything his little hand can reach. He touched Raph's arm, shell, plastorn, fingers and toes and yelled "Cool!"

Leo found himself and Raph grinning ears to ears

Raph picked the boy up and put him on his shoulders. Shouldn't be hard for his, for Raph is the tallest and the biggest turtle out of all of them. He's like 3 ft and 9 in already when Donatello is 2 ft only. He was so small!

Don's laughter could be hears throughout the castle and that includes the Kin's bedroom.

King Yoshi looked down at his son with curiosity because Don rarely laughs like that. He saw three turtles standing with his son sitting on one of the turtles's shoulders.

He quickly closed his eyes and count to ten, hoping it was a dream or his eyes is just playing with him. He opened his eyes and saw his son playing with his ball. Alone.

There's no way Splinter would let those three out… right?

Gulit pierces King Yoshi's heart and he quickly thought 'It's for their own good' over and over again

"It's for their own safety", he whispered to himself

"Did you say something, dear?", asked the queen

"No, Lelona", he said quickly "It's nothing"

Don giggled and looked at the three turtles who's crouching under the bush once again

"That was close", said Mikey

"Too close", said Raph

"You're right", said Leo "We must be more careful now"

Donatello took his hand and led them to his bedroom without anybody noticing
