A/N Hey all. If I keep to my posting schedule, then chapter 12 will be posted on Valentine's Day. For that I'd like to do a chapter on Loops involving love. They can be sad, one-sided, happy, sweet, funny, anything is open to be a loop, they just need to involve romance in some way between two characters who are not OC (Or R rated). So break out the lovey-dovey suggestions, pretty please. Review if you have any suggestions or requests for that chapter, or any other chapters.

10.1 2003 Verse

April O'Niel listened captivated as the rat named Splinter told her the story of him and his son's origin. But when he got to the end where in introduced his sons by name, April had to blink in surprise.

"Wait, so you're all named Donatello?" April asked in confusion as she looked over at the four masked turtles standing before her.

Master Splinter's ear twitched and he looked sheepish. "Yes. It seems my mind was not fully evolved when I chose to name them. By the time I realized my error the name had stuck."

The shortest and pudgiest of the four Donatellos stepped forward with a cheerful grin. "Don't sweat it April," he said. "At least we're easy to tell apart."

It was true, despite the fact they were all mutant turtles in purple masks wielding staff weapons, they all looked different from each other.

The second shortest Donatello, who was olive colored and only white could be seen through the eyeholes of his mask, gave her a shrug. "Despite all of us having the same name, we all have different nicknames," he said. "I'm Don."

He pointed to the short pudgy one. "He goes by his full name, Donatello."

Donatello waved cheerfully.

Don then pointed to the tallest and lankiest of the turtles, who had a gap in his teeth, and was looking at April with friendly red-brown eyes. "Just call him D."

"Hi, April," said D, blushing slightly.

And finally, Don pointed to the second tallest and broadest of the four turtles. "And this is Donny."

"Pleasure to meet you," said Donny.

"Don, Donatello, D, and Donny," said April aloud to try and get the four of them straight in her head. "That's not confusing at all," she muttered sarcastically.

"Tell me about it," muttered Splinter.

10.2 Movie Verse

Movie Raph could only stare up. He could sense the two turtles beside him were doing the exact same thing.

"What?" growled MB Raph, as he glared down at the other three turtles, annoyed by their staring.

"You're freakin' huge!" exclaimed Raph03, when he found his voice.

"And I thought this guy was bulky," said Raphael87 snidely, jerking his thumb at Raph03, who swatted it away in annoyance.

MB Raph just rolled his eyes. "You pipsqueaks are just short," he said gruffly.

"Hey, who you calling a pipsqueak," snarled both Movie Raph and Raph03 in unison.

Raphael87 rolled his eyes and looks over at you. "Great, stuck in a loop with a bunch of hot heads. How's that for turtle luck."

Movie Raph looked over at his other two namesakes. "Who's he talking to?"

Raph03 rolled his eyes and shrugged. "He does that. Ignore it."

"Weird," said MB Raph.

Movie Raph sighed. "Come on," he said with a wave of his hand, "we'll figure it out back at the lair."

The other three Raphaels nodded, and turned to follow him.

As they made their way though the tunnels a loud thunk and swearing was heard at the rear of their group.

They looked back to see MB Raph lying on his back and rubbing his head.

"The sewers in this dimension are too small," he grumbled.

"No, you're just freakin' huge," said Raph03. The other two nodded in agreement.

10.3 1987 Verse

When Michelangelo Prime woke up at the bottom of a familiar looking bunk bed, he groaned and covered his face with his pillow.

"Not this place again," he moaned.

"Wow," came a cheerful voice above his head. "Bunk Beds! I've always wanted a bunk bed!"

MikePrime stuck his head out of his bunk and looked up. A smiling freckled face looked down at him from the top bunk.

"Oh, hey monochrome dude!" said Mikey12 waving down at him.

Mike Prime frowned. "Aren't you the Michelangelo who got Sakura Syndrome?"

Mikey12 froze and shuddered as he remembered his time at Freddy's. "Not anymore," he muttered softly.

"Keep it down, dudes," came a surfer drawl from the bunk above Mike Prime, as a green hand reached out and waved at them. "I'm tryin' to catch some z's here."

Mikey12's grin came back at the sound of that voice. "Hey, is that the Cowabunga Mikey."

"It's Michelangelo or nothing, lil' dude," came the reply as Michelangelo87 stuck his head out of his bunk, blinking sleepily.

Then they became aware that there was still someone snoring on the four-level bunk bed.

"Zzzzz-Dude, Zzzzz-Dude," was how the snores went from the bunk under Mikey12.

Mikey12 got an evil grin on his face. He climbed down to where Movie Mikey was still snoring away and pulled a water balloon from his subspace-pocket.

He pelted it at the still sleeping turtle. Movie Mikey woke with a start as the balloon hit him in the face. He floundered and fell out of his bunk as a result.

"Gahh!" Movie Mikey yelped as he covered his head. "No more Birthday parties! No more BIRTHDAY PARTIES!"

The other three Michelangelos exchanged glances.

"Birthday parties?" asked Mike Prime in confusion.

The other two just shrugged.

10.4 Prime Verse

Things were not going well in the Prime Universe.

This time there were four Leonardos all in the same loop, and all of whom were used to being in charge of their team.

Know what happens when you stick four leaders on a team and expect them to work together? Chaos, and a lot of yelling over who is right.

Master Splinter was no help. He simply told them to work it out amongst themselves, and left to meditate with earplugs in.

It was eventually decided that since it was his universe, Leo Prime would lead the team, but he would listen to the other's input and opinions.

Movie Leo was watching as Leonardo Prime and Leo03 set about planning to take out the Shredder for this loop, when he noticed that the fourth Leonardo was missing.

After a quick search he found Leo12 sitting in front of the TV flipping through channels and looking bluer than his mask.

Movie Leo sat down next to him. "What's wrong?" he asked.

Leo12 jumped and fumbled with the remote in his hand. "Oh, uh, it's just… This dimension doesn't have Space Heroes, my, um, my favorite show," he said quickly and insincerely.

Movie Leo raised an eye ridge at him. "What is it really?"

"No, that's all," Leo12 insisted.

Movie Leo rolled his eyes. "Come on, I have three younger brothers. You'll have to do better than that to lie to me."

Leo12's face fell at his words. "That's just it," he admitted.

"What's it?" asked Movie Leo, feeling like he'd missed something.

"I feel like the little brother. Like I'm the youngest one here," said Leo12 throwing his arms in the air in exasperation. "You and the other two Leos all seem like you're older and way more mature than I am. Compared to you guys, I feel like an immature goof."

Leo12's face blanked as a horrible thought occurred to him. "Oh Sewer Apples, I'm the Mikey of the group."

Movie Leo had to fight to keep his amusement contained, as he knew it wouldn't help make the smaller turtle feel any better if he laughed.

"I wouldn't go that far," said Movie Leo, once he was sure he could keep a straight face. He rubbed the back of Leo12's shell comfortingly. "To be honest, I feel a little intimidated too. All four of us are leaders who've led our teams through who knows how many crazy situations. It's a little scary to see how we all measure up to each other."

"Tell me about it," muttered Leo12 to himself.

"Also, I admit I envy you a little," said Movie Leo, making Leo12 stare up at him in shock.

"What?" he asked.

"You're light hearted, and optimistic about things," explained Movie Leo. "You've seen some of the worst there is, and you can still smile and tell bad jokes."

"They-they sound funnier in my head," said Leo12, rubbing his head sheepishly.

Movie Leo rolled his eyes, but smiled. "I can't do that so easily," he admitted, "and I don't think the others can either. The three of us are more jaded about the world, and it's harder for us to stay as positive as you do."

Leo12 was staring up at him in wonder. "You really think so?" he asked.

Movie Leo nodded. "Besides," he added. "It might not be so bad to be the little brother for just one loop. Let someone else be the responsible one for a change. What do you say?"

Leo12 mulled it over and then smiled. "So long as I'm not the Mikey."

Movie Leo grinned and pulled Leo12 into a noogie. "Not possible, only a Mikey can be a Mikey," he said over Leo12's squawks of protest.

A ways away, Leo03 and Leo Prime looked over to see the other two's antics.

"Lucky kids," muttered Leo Prime.

Leo03 just nodded.

10.5 Movie Verse (Loop of Four Raphs Continued)

"I can't believe you talked us into trying this," grumbled Movie Raph to MB Raph, as he concentrated on what was in his hands.

"Hey I've tried this before," admitted Raph03 as he focused on his own project. "It does help, and I got to pummel Mikey with the end result."

"That's always fun," agreed MB Raph, not even looking up from what he was doing.

"The question is, why do I have this?" asked Raphael87, holding up his own project. "I don't have the anger issues you guys have."

"Shut up and knit your scarf," said the three more hotheaded turtles, not bothering to look up from their own knitting.

Raphael87 sighed, and went back to knitting his pink (apparently that was the only color that was left for him) scarf. "Well if this turns out alright, I can at least give it to Mona for Christmas," he says to you.

The other three ignored him. By now they were all too used to him breaking the fourth wall to take notice of it anymore.

10.6 2003 Verse (Loop of Four Dons Continued)

Don examined his scaffolding by the pond in the lair, before calling the other three Donatellos over.

"Okay," he said once they had gathered around. "The next thing we need to do is meet and befriend Leatherhead. He should be swimming down in the tunnels somewhere right now, so who wants to go down and meet him."

Donatello and D both exchanged panicked glances before shouting "NOT IT!"

Donny, on the other hand, just looked confused. "Who's Leatherhead, and why are you two so afraid of him?"

"Leatherhead is a friend," explained Don. "He's a mutant crocodile with a great intellect. He's very kind, but sometimes his temper gets away from him. As for those two, I don't know."

"He's a good guy here?" asked Donatello in surprise. "In my universe, he hates our guts and keeps working with other bad guys to off us. He's also not all that smart."

"That doesn't sound anything like the Leatherhead I know," said Don in surprise.

"Well in my dimension he's on our side, and Mikey's his friend," D said reluctantly. "But he also likes to grab me by my face and shake me like a rag doll!" D pointed at his face for emphasis.

"Ouch," muttered Donny with a wince.

"He's not like that here," Don assured them all. "And we need to meet him and make friends with him. Right now Baxter Stockman is feeding him lies so he'll make a weapon for him. We need to help him see the truth."

The other three Donatellos exchanged a glance, before reluctantly agreeing to help.

Later…

"I told you this would happen!" wailed D as Leatherhead (who'd been told by Stockman they were the enemy) clutched his face in one of his massive hands and swung him around.

"Sorry," was all Don could say as he and Donatello defended themselves against Stockman's robot.

Fortunately Stockman soon blabbed about working for Shredder, and things worked out. They even were able to keep Leatherhead from getting buried by rubble again. But after that, Donatello and D made sure to keep a safe distance from Leatherhead, despite the crocodile's numerous apologies.

10.7 Prime Verse (Loop of Four Leos Continued)

Smoke slowly filtered out of the lair as Master Splinter emptied the last of the fire extinguisher onto what had once been the kitchen.

The rat sensei then turned and glared at his four sheepish and mortified sons.

"I take it back," said Master Splinter, referring to an earlier comment that the boys had been eating too much fast food. "Order out as many meals as you want. But none of you are allowed to set foot in the kitchen again, except to clean up this mess."

"Hai Sensei," said the four Leonardos in embarrassment as they filed back into the kitchen to start cleaning it up from their disastrous attempt to make a home cooked meal.

As they went, Leo Prime couldn't help but look over at Leo03. "So how did you do that with the toaster?" the prime turtle asked. "I've never seen one explode at a touch before."

Leo03 glared at him. "Oh shut up."

10.8 1987 Verse (Loop of Four Mikeys Continued)

When you have four Michelangelos in one place, things are bound to get wild.

The Shredder and his hench-mutants found that out the hard way, as a take-over-the-world plot by them ended with all three hanging from the Statue of Liberty wearing chicken costumes.

Mikey12 hadn't been too thrilled about the last part, as it brought up unpleasant memories of a certain pizzeria.

Fortunately Michelangelo87 knew exactly how to distract him from such thoughts.

"So how come you and your bros got extra toes," he asked on the way back to the lair.

The question was so out of left field that they all stopped to stare at the one who asked the question.

After blinking in surprise for a few seconds, Mikey12 looked down and compared his feet to the other Michelangelos'.

Instead of the oddly shaped two toed feet like most of the turtles, Mikey12 had round feet with three toes.

"Whoa, they are different," said Movie Mikey, as he kneeled down to get a good look at them.

Mikey12 looked them over. "I don't know. But I've always had three toes. When I get to be really good friends with someone, I introduce my friend to all six of them," he said proudly.

"I bet your friends are thrilled by that," said Mike Prime sarcastically.

"Casey was," said Mikey12, not noticing the sarcasm. "April was a little freaked out about it, but she's cool with it now."

"I bet if Donny were here he could give a whole long winded, science-y explanation about why they're so different," said Movie Mikey

"Probably," said Michelangelo87. He then slumped. "I miss my Donatello, and my brothers."

Movie Mikey and Mikey12 both nodded in agreement, looking equally depressed.

"We'll see them again soon enough," said Mike Prime. "For now, let's just focus on getting through this loop."

Movie Mikey perked up. "And give the Shredder an ulcer while we're at it."

The other two Michelangelos nodded and smiled. "Sounds like fun," said Michelangelo87

10.9 2003 Verse (Loop of Four Dons Continued)

D had locked himself in his room and had refused to come out.

The other three Donatellos had no idea why he was so upset, but after a day of him moping they intended to find out.

Don opened the door to D's room, and he and the others filed in. D was lying on his bed with his pillow pressed over his face and his back to them.

Donny went and sat on the bed next to him. "What's wrong?" he asked softly.

"Everything," was D's muffled reply.

"You're going to have to be more specific then that, Mr. Wizard," said Donatello, not noticing the face Donny made at the nickname.

D slowly removed his pillow from his face, but still didn't look at the rest of them. "Casey and April are dating," he stated quietly.

"Yeah," said Don slowly, not seeing the problem. "They always do that. They'll eventually get married near the end of this loop, and I've even met their future great-grandson."

D's face looked even glummer at that news. "Also, Donny said that they're together in his dimension too."

"Sure are," said Donny. "They'd be married by now as well, if it weren't for the time loops."

D didn't look pleased by that news at all. He just curled up into a ball and kept quiet.

"I'm not seeing the problem here, D," said Don. "Isn't a good thing they're together?"

"NO!" exclaimed D, turning to glare furiously at Don. When he realized what he was doing, he began staring at the floor sadly.

"Why is it a bad thing?" asked Donatello curiously.

D mumbled something too softly for them to hear.

"I didn't catch that," said Donatello, cupping his hand to his ear.

"I said I LIKE HER! OKAY!" D yelled. "I'm in love with my world's April O'Neil!"

"Oooohhh," said the other three turtles. Now everything made sense. April and Casey had just left on their first date when D had imposed his self-isolation.

"And it looks like I have even less of a shot with her than I thought," D ranted, ignoring the dawning comprehension on the others' faces. "If she always ends up with Casey, then what chance do I have?"

"No offence, but isn't she a little old for you?" asked Donny.

"The one here may be," said D defensively, "but the April in my dimension is sixteen. And our loops almost always restart at our fifteenth Mutation Day. And…" D trailed off and just looked depressed. "She kissed me once," he mumbled. "When I was preparing to give up chasing her. It was a real kiss, not just one on the cheek- though I've gotten some of those too. I-I thought…"

He stopped talking and curled his knees into his chest.

Donatello shrugged. "Well it sounds to me like you may have a better shot than you think you do," he said.

D looked up at him his eyes hopeful. "Really?"

"The April in my dimension never ended up with Casey Jones," said Donatello pointing at himself. "She doesn't even like him that much. In fact, she thinks he's a violent nutcase."

"He is a violent nutcase," the other three deadpanned in unison.

"Yeah, and my April isn't interested in that," said Donatello. "Besides, you said your April kissed you, right? How may times has she kissed Casey?"

D thought about that. "None to my knowledge," he said, a smile slowly stretching across his face.

"Well, there you go," said Donatello, his point made.

Don and Donny exchanged glances and shrugged. "They are called alternate-dimensions for a reason," Don admitted. "So things may play out differently in yours than it did in ours. Anything is possible, really."

"And while I can't see my April ending up with anyone but Casey, I don't see why that has to be the way things happen in your universe," agreed Donny as he patted D on the shell. "So go get 'em Tiger."

D was smiling brightly now. His confidence restored.

A/N Read. Review. Please Give Suggestions! Particularly to a SAINW Loop. I want to do one, but I'm lacking in ideas for it. Also my birthday was yesterday. Yay.

10.1- Now for four of the same turtle in a Verse. This ought to be fun. Donatello seems to have the most variety of nicknames in the TMNT franchise. In case you didn't get it. Don=2003 Donatello=1987 Donny=Movie and D=2012(Mikey calls him that sometimes)

10.2- Three hotheads and a joker, how do you think that's going to go.

10.3- How's that for a wake up call. Did you ever notice Movie Mikey snores like that in the 2007 movie?

10.4- Of all Leonardos, Leo12 is my favorite. He's adorable, he's funny when he tries too hard to be witty, and he actually acts like a teenager. But I think he'd feel intimidated around the more mature Leonardos. I've always gotten the impression those Leos were more young adults, not so much teens.

10.5- More knitting fun. Raph03 does do knitting in the mini episode Knit Fit.

10.6- It's fun to see all the different versions of Leatherhead there are in the TMNT franchise, and how they interact with the turtles.

10.7- Looks like Leo's inability to cook is universal.

10.8- Evil doers beware of the power and spazzy-ness of multiple Michelangelos

10.9- Poor Donnie had to find out about this sooner or later. But at least he's not giving up. Has April12 ever kissed Casey12 at all in the series? I can't remember if she has or not.

Disclaimer: I own nothing.
