Angel: Hey! Another week, another buttload of hw. -_- So I decided to post twice a week instead of once, because not only do I get bored, I also have Chapters 5-10 done already...

Leo: You want Donnie to help you with your homework?

Donnie: What?! No!

Leo: *glares at him*

Donnie: Heh heh…just ask, and I'll help you out!

Angel: *smiles* That's okay, Donnie. *passes the hat to Mikey*

Mikey: 2

Donnie: 5

Raph: 11

Leo: 20

Casey: Ha! You gotta say the disclaimer, Leo!

Leo: But that's not fair! You didn't draw a number!

Angel: Sorry Leo, but the maximum number is 20.

Leo: *sighs* Angel doesn't own anything but her OCs.

Mutagen Man Unleashed

Leo and I were in the kitchen, where I was eating a donut (don't ask how I got it) that had chocolate on top. Leo was sitting next to me. I smile. I still can't believe he asked me to be his girlfriend. I was practically on Cloud 9 everytime I walk. I take a bite of my donut happily and Leo chuckles at me. "What?" I ask in confusion. He taps the corner of his mouth with his finger. "You got a little something right there," he answers. I touch around my face, but I don't feel anything. "Where?" I ask. Leo crashes his lips on mine in response. I sigh happily and his fingers get lost in my hair. I wrap my arms around his neck and pull him closer to me. Soon, we had to part, making me a bit sad. Leo chuckles and gives me a peck on my slightly swollen lips. "There was nothing on my face, was there?" I ask with a smirk. He smiles. "No, there was not," he answers before I hear noises from the tv. I look at Leo before we walk over to Mikey, who was watching an old tv show. I raise an eyebrow.

"Super! Robo! Mecha! Force! Five! Team! Five! Go!" The characters shout from the tv. "What the heck is this nonsense? It's terrible!" Raph replies from behind us. "Terribly awesome! I found these old tapes in a dumpster," Mikey says. "Tapes?" Donnie asks. Mikey holds up a box of VHS tapes. Those must be tapes of the series. "Check it out," Mikey tells us. I pick up a tape and look at the title. Super Robo Mecha Force Five? Sounds like a parody of Space Heroes or something. "This looks worse than your pizza noodle soup," I reply, throwing the tape back into the box. "Dude, this is awful," Donnie comments. "And you guys complained about Space Heroes," Leo remarks. "Their lips don't even match what they're saying. I could never watch a show this bad," Raph retorts.

We all watch the show, addicted already. I don't know why, but this show relates to me in so many ways. "There are too many of them, captain!" The princess says from the tv. "So, she's the princess of an entire planet?" I ask in awe. "Cool," Raph comments. "Engage lasertron fury!" The blue captain orders. Leo wraps his arms around my waist tighter as he watches. I choke. "Leo," I wheeze. He loosens his grip. "Sorry," he whispers into my ear. "Yep, and she also pilots the robot's left leg. She rules! But that scientist dude made the robot," Mikey explains. My eyes glue to the tv. "You want a snack, Ames?" Leo asks me. I nod while watching in awe. Leo chuckles, kisses my cheek, and gets up. "Get-" He walks away before I finish my sentence. "I know what to do," he replies. "The story has such an intricate, layered plot. 4 stars!" Donnie says from behind us. Leo comes back, picks me up, and places me on his lap before handing me an apple. He wraps his arms around me again. I take a bite out of my snack. "P-p-princess, I'd like to invite you for space dinner, if you please, yes?" The scientist asks the princess nervously. "What? I, date a weakling like you? Not for 10,000 zarkon crystals!" The princess answers, walking away. The others, except Donnie and me, laugh as the scientist gives a dejected look. I frown. "Donnie, that is so you and April, dude!" Mikey exclaims. Donnie frowns. "It is not! Meh, this show is lame anyway. The plot makes zero sense! I'll be in the lab," Donnie replies, walking into his lab.

"At least you weren't like that," Leo whispers to me. I turn to him. "That's different, I knew you liked me when you first kissed me," I whisper back. Leo smiles. "Which is my favorite memory so far," he says before giving me a peck on the lips. I blush. Raph rolls his eyes. "Barf," he mutters. I stick my tongue out at him. "You're just mad because I got a girlfriend before you did," Leo retorts. Raph glares at him. "NO I'M NOT!" he yells defensively. I roll my eyes and stand up. "I'm going to check up on Donnie," I tell them, but only Leo notices. He waves a wand at me without looking. I walk over to Donnie's lab. He looks at something dejectedly. "Oh, great. Another batch lost! I swear, if it's the last thing I do, I'm gonna find a cure…and win April back," he mutters before turning around. He screams as soon as he sees me. "You could have warned me, Amy!" he exclaims in annoyance. I raise an eyebrow at him. "Still trying to make a retro-mutagen for April's dad?" I ask him softly. He sighs. "I don't want April to be mad at us for her dad's mutation. I've been trying to make the antidote, but nothing," Donnie answers, pointing to a frozen beaker. I snort. "Wow. Frozen, and I didn't even have to do anything," I reply before Donnie groans. "There has to be a way I can make this retro-mutagen," he complains. I put a hand on his shoulder.

"You can do this Donnie. Remember, Kirby's fate is in your hands," I tell him before walking out.


I watch as Mikey skates over to a pizza box with one slice in it. Mikey reaches out to it, but not before looking around with a bug-eyed look. I snicker. Leo and I tackle Mikey, placing a foot on his plastron. Leo slices the pizza on his sword in half and hands me a piece. I throw it in the air and catch it in my mouth. I chew happily. "Ow! What the heck was that?" Mikey exclaims. Leo throws the other half of pizza into his mouth using his sword, and eats it. "That was a stealth attack. And that's what we're practicing in today's training session," I explain, helping Mikey up. "No fair! I couldn't see you guys coming!" Mikey retorts. I roll my eyes. "That's why they call it stealth, genius," Raph replies. "Why would you eat random pizza you found on a roof, anyway? And why did you use pizza, Amy?" Donnie asks Mikey and I. "Roof pizza is like one of my top ten favorite pizzas!" Mikey answers. I slap my forehead. "I used pizza because I knew Mikey wouldn't be able to resist. And have you seen him eat?" I reply to Donnie. "Hmm. True," he answers. "Okay, guys, listen up," I order. "The two keys to stealth: Misdirection and Camouflage. Got it?" Leo explains. The others nod. "Raph and Mikey, you guys are up!" I tell said turtles. Mikey is about to reply but we vanish again.

Leo turns to me from behind a water tower. "You're becoming a great teacher, Ames," Leo tells me. I blush. "Really? I just said what was on my mind," I answer. Leo smiles. "The key to being a great teacher is believing in yourself, which is what you did," he replies. I smile. "You're becoming a great girlfriend, too…" he whispers before kissing my nose. I hum happily in response. "Ow! Ugh! No fair! Stealth attacks are lame!" I hear from Mikey. Leo and I look at each other and snicker. I see Donnie looking down at something. "I'll be right back," I tell him, gesturing to Donnie. Leo grins. "Go on. I know you want to help him," he answers, giving me a peck on the lips. I grin before running to Donnie. "She's on a date? I can't believe it. With some punk human kid," Donnie mutters to himself. I tap him on the shoulder. He tenses up before turning to me. "Seriously, stop scaring me like that," Donnie retorts. I cross my arms. "Then pay attention to your surroundings," I remark before I look down to where Donnie was looking. I see April on the swings with a boy with black hair. He seemed to be the same height as Donnie. He wears a black shirt, jeans, and a black bandanna, along with fingerless gloves. Uh-oh… I look at Donnie, who looked mad. "What are they saying?" he asks, trying to get closer. Unfortunately, he falls into a dumpster, startling the two humans. April was about to look up, but I hide just in time before she sees me. I sigh in relief. As much as I want to see her, she's not gonna want to talk to me…


Donnie and I were back at his lab, and he was venting to Timothy and I about April and that boy we saw her with. "Ridiculous! And they were swinging together! Swinging!" Donnie exclaims in anger. I look at one of the pictures on his table. It was a picture of him and April. Donnie was pushing April on the swing. My eyes droop and I turn back to Donnie. "And then she looked at him. Can you believe it? She gave him that look, like this," Donnie complains, batting his eyes. I roll my eyes. "She didn't even look at him like that," I mutter. Donnie groans. Either he ignored what I said, or he chose not to listen. "Why was she even with him?" Donnie asks. I place a finger on my chin. "They could have just been studying," I answer. Again, he ignores me. I narrow my eyes at him. "Because he's human, that's why! Big deal! You know how many people are human?" Donnie says. I groan. "Gee, I don't know. 36 million and counting?" I retort. Donnie doesn't respond. "I'm almost done with your voice box," Donnie explains, installing a gray box on Timothy's canister. "How's that?" Donnie asks him. "S-speaking t-to youuu, Don-nieee a-and A-myyyy?" I hear. I gasp. It worked? "Hey, it works!" Donnie exclaims with a laugh.

"Let's see April's boyfriend design something like this!" Donnie replies, emphasizing on the word boyfriend. "I like Ap-ril, Don-nieee and A-myyyy," Timothy says from his box. I tilt my head at him. Should I be worried about that? Not that I'm worried he still lusts after me (which he really can't do in a canister in Donnie's lab). Donnie puts a hand on Timothy's canister. "Yeah, you and me both, Pulverizer," Donnie answers. "H-How a-are youuu and Le-oooo, Am-yyyy?" Timothy asks. Honestly, I was surprised he asked me. I guess he's moved on from me…not that I care. "Oh! Leo and I are great, thanks for asking," I reply with a smile. "I just have to face it. She'll never wanna be friends again," Donnie comments sadly. I put a hand on his shoulder. "Donnie, she'll come around. April can't stay mad at us forever," I tell him. "April friend?" Timothy asks. Donnie is too upset to pay any more attention to him. I turn to him. "I wish," I mutter. "Donatello, my son. I would like to speak with you," I hear from the door of Donnie's lab. I turn to see Splinter. "Amelia, you come along as well," he replies. I raise an eyebrow and give Donnie an uncertain look, which he returns.

"Um, sure, Master Splinter," Donnie answers. I nod. "Hai, sensei," I reply before we walk into the dojo. "Today, Amelia and I will teach you to enjoy falling down," Splinter tells us. Donnie looks at me and I shrug, standing next to Splinter. "Why would I ever-" Splinter sweep kicks him, making him fall to the floor. "Did you enjoy that?" Splinter asks. "No!" Donnie answers. "Then let's keep trying," Splinter replies. After we knock him down a couple times, I grow more and more confused. Why is he teaching him to enjoy falling down? "Do you even like this?" I ask Donnie after I knock him down again. "No. Not at all," he answers before I help him up. What is the point of this lesson? Splinter strokes his beard in thought. "Hmm. Then perhaps one cannot make someone like something," Splinter explains. Oh…I see what he's getting at now. "Of course not. No one wants to be-" Donnie says as he realizes the answer as well. "Oh, I get it. You're talking about me and April," Donnie replies sheepishly. "My son, for someone so intelligent, the obvious often eludes you," Splinter replies. I snicker and they turn to me. I smile a bit. "Sorry," I say, rubbing my arm nervously. "Amelia, you are dismissed," Splinter orders. I nod. "Hai, sensei," I answer before I walk out of the dojo. I feel around for my T-Phone, but I can't find it. I huff. "Leo, did you take my T-Phone again?" I ask, popping my head into the living room. He shakes his head. "It wasn't me this time, Ames," Leo answers. I groan.

"Come on and sit down," Leo tells me. I shake my head. "In a minute, I gotta find my T-Phone," I answer. Maybe I left it in Donnie's lab? I walk inside, only to see Timothy standing up?! "Am-yyyy help find April!" he exclaims and before I can do anything, he grabs me. I scream. "Let me go, Timothy!" I yell before he breaks through a wall. I struggle to get out of his grip. "If you don't let me go this instant, I will freeze you to death!" I exclaim. He tightens his grip around my waist.

Somehow, we end up on the surface. "Wherrre isss April O'Neil?" Timothy asks. People scream. They are clearly terrified of him and run away. I grunt and hit Timothy's arm with my fists, but he does nothing. He grabs a man and shakes him. "Human help us find April!" he says. The man faints. Ugh. Man, I hope the others noticed that I'm gone…


Leo's POV

"What happened? Where's Ames?" I ask Donnie and Sensei as l look at the huge hole in the wall. "Timothy somehow escaped, and it seems like he took Amy with him. I think he went after April," Donnie answers. My eyes widen. What? Timothy took my girlfriend? I smile a bit at the thought. I have a girlfriend…I shake my head. Focus, Leo. We have to save her. "Come on, I'll fill you in on the way," Donnie tells us. We head out in search of Timothy and Ames. I hope she's okay…

"I didn't know it, but I think all my April talk made Timothy go after her," Donnie says. We jump across the rooftops. "You told your thoughts and feelings to a pile of guts in a jar?" Raph asks in disbelief. "He's a good listener," Donnie answers. I pull out my T-Phone and dial April. If what he said is true, April's in danger. "How dangerous is this thing?" I ask Donnie as the shell-shaped phone rings in my ear. "Well, he obviously doesn't know his own strength. He could end hurting up her," Donnie replies. My eyes widen. "Or Ames!" I exclaim. I hear a beep from my T-Phone. "This phone currently has no signal," I hear. "April's T-Phone's still off. There's no way of tracing the signal, and Ames left hers at the lair," I reply to Donnie. "Actually, April might be at the park. On a date," Donnie answers, muttering at that last part. However, I still heard him. The rest of us stop in our tracks and turn to him. "And you know this how?" Raph asks. "Um, maybe I was following her," Donnie explains sheepishly. I groan quietly. "Well, that's not creeptastic," Mikey comments. "Okay, so they're either at the park, or April's headed back home. Donnie, we'll take the park. Raph and Mikey, you two head to April's. After that, we can go find Ames," I order. My brothers nod at me. "On it!" Raph and Mikey reply before heading off.


Amy's POV

I blame Donnie for this.

As Timothy walks around with me in his hand, I see April out of the corner of my eye, walking with that boy. I raise an eyebrow at them. What's the real story between those two? For Donnie's sake, I hope they really aren't dating…Unfortunately, Timothy sees them also. "Aprilll!" Timothy exclaims. April turns to him and gasps. "Donnie's monster?" April asks. She sees me and narrows her eyes. "What do you want?" she asks me. "April, I tried to stop him, believe me," I reply. "Can't I go one month without some mutant attacking me?" April asks. Timothy grabs my arm with his other hand. I dangle from his grip and look at him. "Am-yyyy not needed anymoreeee," he says before he swings me around like Mikey's nunchuck. I scream before he throws me at a far distance. I land in a dumpster and crash inside. Oh, just peachy. A knock is heard from outside and I open the dumpster door from inside to find Raph and Mikey. "What happened to you, dudette?" Mikey asks me. They help me up and I brush trash off me. "I'd rather not talk about it," I mutter. "Let me call Fearless and tell him we found you," Raph tells me, pulling out his T-Phone. I see someone and stop him from calling. I point to Timothy. "Don't you think we should deal with him first?" I reply. They nod at me and we run to Timothy. "Not so fast, barrel full of ug-lay!" Mikey exclaims. I couldn't help laughing at what he said. "Donnie's right. Pulverizer's been drinking mutagen," Raph explains. I turn to him. "He has?!" I shout.

What's up with Timothy and mutagen? It's like he needs it… "You're not going anywhere, pal," I hiss at Timothy. "Oooh, better watch out, she's serious," Mikey replies. "No! Must find April!" Timothy answers. Raph, Mikey and I proceed to fight him. "What happened to you, Pulverizer?" I ask. Why is he not acting like himself? It's like whatever humanity he had left is gone… "You turned into some kind of…Mutagen Man!" Mikey says before Timothy throws him into a dumpster. "Mikey!" Raph and I shout. Before I can do anything, I'm hit by Timothy in the face with one of his hands. I yelp in pain. "Amy!" Raph yells. Timothy grabs him by the neck and pins him to the ground. Raph struggles to get out of his grip. "Lemme go!" Raph screams. "Goodbye, tur-tllle," Timothy says, about to melt Raph's face. Raph looks in horror. Leo jumps in and frees his brother by cutting off one of Timothy's hands. I sigh in relief. Timothy growls and screeches. "Thanks, dude," Raph tells Leo before he sees me. "Ames! You're okay!" Leo replies before giving me a bear hug. I laugh. "Of course I am. I mean, I was thrown in a dumpster and all…" I explain before Raph sniffs the air. "I think the dumpster smell is getting to you," Raph mutters, covering his mouth. I look down and see various stains on my clothes.

I gag in disgust. I swear, when this is over, I will slap the green off Donnie AND Timothy. Leo runs up to Timothy, but before he can do more damage, Donnie stops him. "No! Don't hurt him!" Donnie exclaims. I raise an eyebrow. Raph grew angry at this. "What? He just tried to melt my face!" Raph retorts. Leo gestures to me. "And look at what he did to Ames!" he remarks. "All he wants to do is make April our friend again," Donnie explains. Timothy didn't seem too pleased with this answer. "No! Ap-ril not turtle and Am-yyyy friend. April only MY friend," Timothy tells us. I frown at this. Donnie, you just had to tell your feelings about April in front of him…but then again, none of us were expecting him to mutate and go after April. "What? I thought you were trying to get April back for me!" Donnie answers. The rest of us give him a look. "Um, us," Donnie says sheepishly. Uh-huh… "Turtles and Am-yyyy hurt April! Hurt me! Must de-stroy turtles and Am-yyyy!" Timothy exclaims. My eyes widen. Uh-oh… He was about to attack us when he starts to lose energy. "Powerrrring dowwwnnn," Timothy says before he falls to the ground. "What happened?" Leo asks. "He ran out of mutagen, because he didn't consume enough," I answer. "Quick, let's get him into the Shell-Raiser!" Donnie tells us. Oh no… As much as I didn't appreciate Timothy kidnapping me and throwing me into a smelly dumpster, he's still my responsibility, like Splinter said.


"Remind me why we're bringing Mr. Personality here back to the lair?" Raph asks as Leo and I drive. "What he did wasn't his fault, Raph. It's mine. He was lonely! All my April talk made him want a friend," Donnie answers. I snort. "Yeah well, all your April talk made him kidnap me and throw me into a dumpster," I retort. "But more importantly, Timothy's DNA could be the key to retro-mutagen. I could cure April's dad and him if-" Donnie gasps, not finishing his sentence. Confused, I turned my head to see Timothy drinking more mutagen. "Oh no," I groan as Timothy breaks out of the Shell-Raiser. "Aprilll!" he shouts as he runs away. This is starting to annoy me…not that I like him! Because he keeps going after April and putting her in danger. Leo and I stop the Shell-Raiser and we all pile out. "I thought he was out cold!" Raph exclaims. "We split up and find him," Leo orders. "There's no need to split up. We know where he's headed," Donnie explains. We all look at each other. This isn't gonna end well, is it?

We jump down in front of Timothy, who was about to capture April. We pull out our weapons. "Where are you going, handsome? April's house?" Raph asks. "Keep him in the alley! We can't let April's boyfriend see us!" Leo orders. As soon as he said boyfriend, Donnie growls. I wince. Timothy growls at us. "Leave Mutagen Man alone!" He screams. We fight him, but we can barely fend him off. "Destroy you all!" Timothy yells. I sigh. Looks like there's nothing else we can do. "Donnie, we have no choice," I tell him. "Whatever The Pulverizer-Timothy-was is gone now," Leo finishes. "But if we destroy him, I might never find a retro-mutagen. What about April's dad?" Donnie replies. "What about April?" Raph asks. Timothy roars at us. Donnie forms a plan. "We need to distract him. Misdirection and camouflage," Donnie explains before we all hide. Someone grabs my arm. Donnie goes into the Shell-Raiser, pulling me with him. "Donnie! What are you doing?" I ask. He grabs a canister full of mutagen and a beaker full of a blue liquid. He gives me the beaker. "Put your finger in this and make it colder. Hurry!" he orders. "Why?" I ask. "You'll see," Donnie replies before I do as he said. He pours the beaker into the mutagen. "I hope this works," he mutters before coming out of the Shell-Raiser. Hope what works? I follow Donnie outside. "Hey. Timothy! Mutagen!" Donnie exclaims, holding the canister above his head. Timothy inches closer to Donnie. "That's right. This way. Come closer," Donnie says to him. "M-ore muta-gen!" Timothy replies before pushing Donnie and me to a wall. He grabs the mutagen. "Whoa! Don't drink it, Timothy!" Donnie tells him. Timothy, however, drinks it anyway.

"Oh no. Not again!" Mikey replies. I turn to the tallest turtle. "Why would you give him more mutagen?" I hiss at Donnie. "Just trust me," Donnie whispers before Timothy gives a wide-eyed look. "Don-nie? Am-yyyy? Some-thing's Wro-nggg," Timothy tells us as his voice slows down. "I'm sorry, Timothy," Donnie replies. Timothy lunges at me. I scream and cover my eyes, but nothing happens. Confused, I open my eyes to see Timothy, frozen in place. I sigh in relief. "Wow! Awesome move, you two. Real scientific," Leo tells us. Donnie sighs. "Yeah. Real scientific," he replies sadly before turning to Timothy. My eyes droop. "Don't worry, my friend. One day, I'll find a cure," Donnie says. Raph puts a hand on his shoulder. "It's okay, Donnie. You did what you had to do. Let's just go home," Raph answers.


As I tie my hair back into a high ponytail with my green bow, I catch Splinter and Donnie having a conversation. "April's decision to stay away is her own choice. We must let her come back in her own time," Splinter explains. Donnie was probably mourning the fact that Timothy went after April. Timothy was his responsibility as well. "Yeah, but what if she never does?" Donnie asks. "Never lose hope, Donnie," I tell him as Splinter and Donnie turn to me. Splinter smiles before going back to the dojo. I walk over to Leo and sit on his lap. He wraps his arms around my waist. "Oh, Dr. Blip! You saved me with all of your might and brave intelligence! How I adore this!" The princess says from the tv before she kisses Dr. Blip. I giggle and Leo gives me a peck on the cheek. "Yeah…there's always hope," I hear from Donnie, his optimism restored. I hear someone clear their throat from behind me. I turn to Donnie. He smiles. "Amy...thanks for being a good friend. You really know how to cheer someone up," he tells me. I smile. "Anything for a friend, Donnie," I answer.
