Chapter 2
~the following morning~
Donatello awoke and the first thing, he did was immediately logged in the account. And clicked to the link for the comment review. And wrote his comment with his support to the author.

Hi, I wish to say you have done a terrific job in writing the first chapter of your story and I look forward to read the next chapter. Great work, Ms Reavien. ;). Picking up from where he had left the last chapter and begun to read the next. Deeply intrigued, eager to know what is expected to happen next. "What is going to happen next?" he wondered, excitedly to himself as he opened the folder and turned the page to the next chapter. "Chapter 2: So it begins. Hm, what begins? I wonder." He said, raising his brow curiously.
Donnie resumed reading the chapter as he couldn't put the folder down. "This is real good." He said, happily then grunted with frustration as he closed his eyes and sighed irritated when hearing knocking on the door. "Yeah, what is it?" he said but continued reading whilst keeping an open ear. "Want something to eat?" Mikey offered.
"Sure, what's for breakfast?" Donnie wondered, hoping it will be his favourite. "Omelettes." Mikey replied. "Scrambled eggs for me please." Donnie requested, sighing and turned the page. "Alright, want me to bring it to you?" Mikey asked. "Sure. Thanks Mikey." Don answered, as Mikey replied kindly. "No problem bro." then walked away, leaving his brother in the lab as he assumed that he could be busy working on inventing new gadget. The purple clad terrapin continued reading and when the story had reached to the paragraph of what the title meant.
His eyes widen with curiosity and gasped with shock as he stated in a whisper. "What the?"
Mikey and Leo helped Don to the couch and watched him as he sat down and rubbed his head. "Dude, you were like this earlier," Mikey pointed out. Leo nodded. "Yeah, and you refused to eat anything," he added. Don tried on a smile. "Well, it all sounded good," he admitted. "But the smell of it made my stomach turn over."
"But Master Splinter's cooking ROCKS!" Mikey said in shock. "You're always saying how much you love the smell of his homemade pancakes and waffles with extra vanilla!"
"O-oh, PLEASE don't talk about food," Don said, wincing at the word. Raph and Splinter appeared at the couch's side. "Miss O'Neil is on her way," Master Splinter stated.
Donatello was astounded to read how well the author that he was reading, had written a terrific story. Continued reading to know whether his own intuition was telling him, that the symptoms was only what women experience. But he also wondered, could it true that terrapin humanoid species have the capacity of transforming oneself from one sex to another like fish can. Shaking his head, telling himself that this is only fiction and resumed reading.
"Tell me again what you've been experiencing all day, Donatello," Leatherhead told the dazed turtle. "Nausea, vomiting, dizziness, headaches, slight cramps nearly everywhere, and I haven't been hungry all day," the purple banded turtle replied. Leatherhead's eyes widened just slightly, but only for a moment. Then, he turned towards Don's family.
"Would it bother you if he came to my home?" He asked, curiously. "I would like to see how he follows out the rest of the day and do some research on the subject."
The page had ended with slight detour of the chapter to the following page, eagerly turning the page as he heard knocking once again. Huffed with annoyed gruff as he answered. "Yes."
"Um, breakfast?" mikey replied, slightly shaken. Sighed softly, placing the folder down and walked the door and opened it. Apologising to his younger brother, kindly taking the plate. "Sorry mikey. And thankyou."
"What're you doing in there? Can I see?" the hyper orange clad terrapin asked, with a smile. "Nothing much, just you know. Observing and studying blueprints for a new invention I am doing. Thanks for the food." Don answered and closed the door before returning back to his desk and continued reading. Mikey blinked, scratched the back of his bald head as he wondered to himself. "Did he even hear what I said?" sighing lowly then walked away as he stated. "Oh well, maybe he'd remember to answer my question later."
Resume where he left off, as he carefully ate his food. Not wanting to make a slight mess of his egg omelette onto the pages of his folder, even though they are protected in a plastic folder sleeve but weren't the point. He didn't want to have find a tissue to wipe away the drippling of the egg just to happily enjoy reading his story that he had became so intrigue and interested in. loosing himself into the story as he awaited to know what leatherhead was going to say when he said something about 'do some research on the subject.' But what subject and what research. What exactly was wrong with him in this story.
Putting aside his curious and wondrous thoughts as resumed reading and then finally the answers was revealed as he continued on.
"Okay, Leatherhead, what are you getting at?" Don asked, suddenly feeling uneasy. "Donatello, think about it," Leatherhead said. "You're a fellow scientist. Add it up. Nausea, dizziness, being told you're the turtle who's supposed to help combine DNA into one…how does that happen normally?"
Don paused thinking it over before his eyes suddenly jolted open. He then gave Leatherhead a sturdy look, locking his eyes with the yellow-tinted ones of the croc. "Whoa, there is no way you're saying—"
"Congratulations, Donatello…you're pregnant."
His eyes widen in shock and with curious wonder as he gasped, whispery. "Holy crud!" the purple clad terrapin couldn't put the folder fast enough which had knocked the plate from the table unto the floor by his feet, making a mess of the remainder of his breakfast and broke the plate. "Darnit." He grunted, then decided to leave it until he made his second review to the authors page on the story.

Ms reavien, it is me again. Have to say that you made a real good story. I'm up to the third chapter now as I can not put this down. And had made a big mess of my room while trying to read and eat my breakfast at the same time as I'm so intrigued by your fiction. Have you ever thought of publishing?
