Chapter 4

Mikey sent his review to the fiction, saying what was on his mind before reading the first two chapters that his brother had read.

Hi Cowabunga Mikey here, I read your story and have to say I liked it but also, blushed like a apple throughout the story. Wondering if have any more?

Donatello smiled and asked. "So, ready to read the next chapter?" Mikey nodded, smiled back as he replied. "Yes, I want to know more how that you are going to have a baby."

"I know right. I am just as curious but doing some research of my own." Donatello told him, whilst flipping the page. "What were you actually reading before coming to this one?" Donatello asked curiously glance his younger brother which still blushed red. "Um, nothing." Mikey stammered embarrassed. "Ah huh." He replied. "What? Don't you believe me?" Mikey asked, sheepishly.

"Bit hard to believe you with the embarrassed glance." Donnie smiled. Mikey sheepishly smiled again and giggled nervously then continued reading the following chapter of the 'pains and gains of motherhood'.

Donatello joined him on reading the chapter and huddled like little kids, wanting to know what is going to happen next. As they read on, they were like as if sitting on the edge of their seats well, on the edge of one seat as it was getting bit cramped. Then decided to sit on the floor and read. Mikey quietly sniggered as he couldn't believe he was pregnant in the story and Donatello was also confused but yet, curious as why then put his thoughts aside and continued reading.

It was until the paragraph about Mikey been mentioned about of how he'd going to take the news in the story.

"Right now, we need to figure out how the shell I'm going to tell my brothers this…AND how it happened!"

Leatherhead blinked. Wow, he hadn't thought about that yet.

"Oh, man," Don continued on. "Mikey's going to have a great time with this one…Raph will probably help with that….Leo will bite my head off when he learns I haven't told him something and I don't know what the shell Master Splinter will do or say!"

As Mikey said whilst smirking with devious grin once had read the paragraph and started laughing. "This author got one thing right here as I am laughing my socks off and I don't wear socks." Donnie was not too keen about it then huffed and told him instantly. "Alright, Mikey. Quit teasing me and read."

The orange clad terrapin couldn't stop or bring himself to stop laughing as he found hilarious, poor Donnie just sighed and ignored him as he continued on. The brothers read on together and then Mikey said, with a soft huff.

"Aww," Mikey moaned, getting an elbow from Raph shortly afterwards. "Ouch!"

"Sure, we'd be glad to help out," Raph said, glaring at Mike before taking the forks and plates from the counter. "Won't we Mikey?"

"The author really does knows each of us well, don't she? As since she made sure that raph gives me the whack in the chest." Donnie chuckled and replied. "Yeah, I've noticed that and it does seem she is very exquisite of how well she knows us."

"Let's see how raphael, Leonardo and master splinter reacts in the story?" mikey insisted, giving his older brother the curious glance. Nodding agreeably and continued on. The orange clad terrapin teased his brother about his character self in the story, unable to eat and felt queasy while watching the others eat and going greener than usual then that's where the questions were asked of when they'd get to the part of where will the news finally be revealed soon as Donnie said to mikey with a low insisting sigh. "Well, mikey we wont know until we finally read it and find out how they'd react will we?" he sheepishly smiled and replied. "Sorry."

"Uh," he started, looking mainly at Splinter. "You're all going to be…uncles."

Mikey suddenly started choking on his sushi and spat most of it across the table. Leo took in a sharp breathe and sprayed Raph with the water that had currently been in his mouth. Don winced at their actions, noticing Master Splinter's eyes widened.

"WHAT!" Raph shouted, glaring towards Don and wiping his face off with the back of his hand.

The orange clad terrapin sheepishly smiled, snickering quietly and said. "This is awesome story and it is funny." Donnie glared, with raised brow and sigh when he replied. "Gee, thanks mikey for laughing as I hope you are having a good time, reading this." He smiled and nodded, giggling. Donnie rolled his eyes then resumed reading.

"Dude, I guess we can't call you 'bro' anymore!" Mikey teased. Don tried to ignore them, but the words just seemed to be too strong to block out. "How does 'sister Dona' sound?"

"Hehe, religious, and gender fitting!" Raph added. The two started laughing, and Don sunk down a little in his seat.

"This author has nailed it here. Haha." Mikey added, laughing. "Yeah, yeah. Don't rub it in mikey." Donnie instructed. "Sorry, Donnie it is funny." Mikey replied, sheepishly grinned. "No need to rub it in." he said once more. "Alright, continue?" mikey asked, turning the page. Donnie nodded agreeably. Fifteen minutes later, both enjoyed reading the fiction as they reached chapter six where Donnie meets a small child and her family.

Don heard the gun click and he shut his eyes in reflex. Suddenly, Kiara's voice broke the silence. She let out a shrill cry before breaking into tears and throwing herself onto her father's legs.

"No, daddy! No!" She wailed, hugging them tightly with her little arms. "Don't hit the aleeun with your loud stick!"

"Kiara! Get off my legs, young lady!" The father said sharply, causing Don to reopen one of his eyes. He did so just in time to see a woman run onto the scene. She was tall and slim, her straight dirty blonde hair pulled into a bun similar to what April normally wears, only a little messier and fixed so that the hair tips spilled out at the top. She let out a gasp at the sight of Don, and the turtle let out a slight huff.

Scratching his head alittle then stated. "This is getting good but also bad as, um you know." Donnie nodded and replied, adding. "Yes I know, but then it is apart of our destiny. Some may understand and others freak out." Sighing lightly and added. "Wish it would be different."

"Mommy, daddy's gonna hurt the nice aleeun like he did tha' pretty deer!" She sobbed, refusing to release her father from her grasp. "The aleeun saved me and Mr. Snuffle-uffle-kins from those meanie boys!"

"Susan, get Kiara off of me, she's putting us all in danger," the man snapped, gun still pointed at Don. The turtle felt his stomach flip over…morning sickness or fear? He didn't see the difference. Susan, apparently the man's wife, moved forwards quickly and caught up Kiara who cried out.

Mikey frowned with sadness, continued reading while endless questions wavered his mind. But then, remember how april reacted when they first met as Donnie explained that their friend isn't the first to be shocked but wont be the last despite within time, she accepted them along with a few others that crossed paths with them along the way on their journey. Continued with the chapter and resumed with new questions about what may happen next. "Hungry?" mikey asked, Donnie nodded and folded the page corner until mikey returned with a sandwich each for them. "Where were we?" mikey asked, rushing in with two sandwiches. "We are up to the paragraph where the big escape comes." Donnie told him and continued. "Quickly."

Both read the following page of the continued chapter, where bishop came into the scene of trying to abduct Donnie from the kind family home that had welcomed him as they were threatened and bribed them for the target, he was seeking. The small child known as Kiara knew exactly what the EPF agent wanted and defended Donatello with all she had which encouraged her parents to protect him from the evil immortal being.

"I believe you're coming with me, Donatello," the man growled. "Agent Bishop is really looking forwards to that mess of a child you're carrying coming, and he plans not to miss its birth."

Feelings of anger and hope arose then he added. "Least you were found by a good family, and their kid won her parents in to protecting you." Donnie smiled agreeably. "Yes indeed."
