You Look Normal

By: Shadowcat2428

Okay, last day of Spring Break and I found sometime to update, yah! It was also my birthday March 12th and I was going to update but I was soooo busy, Thanks for hanging in and Thank you for the reviews!

Chapter 15

"Pancakes, Pancakes! Nom Nom Nom!" Mikey sung happily jumping down the stairs to the kitchen.

"Yes, you like pancakes we got it!" Raph yelled look annoyed stomping down stairs after Mikey.

Leo followed looking amused silently following Raph.

"When are we leaving? Are we leaving now?!" Mikey said excitedly, "This is the first restaurant we've ever been to!"

"Okay, okay calm down," Casey complained covering his ears.

"We'll leave once everyone is ready," April assured looking around for her coat.

"I am ready, Leo is ready, Raph is ready…I think?" Smack "Okay Raph IS ready, Casey is ready, your ready, and… where is Donnie!?" Mikey looked around franticly.

"His outside in the barn," Leo reminded Mikey.

"He didn't come in?" April asked finally finding where Mikey put her coat.

"Apparently," Raph mumbled.

"I will go get him!" Mikey said running outside to the barn.

"Donnnnnie," Mikey peeking into the barn, "You in here?"

"Yeah I am over here," Donnie replied raising his hand.

"We're going out to eat come on!" Mikey said excited pulling on Donnie's arm.

"Go ahead I will stay here," Donnie replied then yawned.

"No you need to come with us; this will be the first restaurant we have ever been too!" Mikey begged.

"I need to finish working on this I haven't got anywhere with this cure," Donnie replied shooing Mikey off.

"Well you need to eat then you can start again with a fresh head," Mikey suggested.

'That actually made since, but I need you finish this, 'Donnie told himself.

"Pleasssssse," Mikey's puppy dog eyes.

"Fine," Donnie got up and stretched, "let me change real fast," Donnie said heading into the house.

"Woohoo!" Mikey said following him.

Donnie's P.O.V At John's Pancake House

At the Pancake House Casey and April sat at a different table while we sat in a booth.

Me and Mikey sat across from Leo and Raph, Me and Raph on the outside.

A young girl came and took our orders.

Mikey order about the whole menu and hot chocolate.

Leo order four half's of toast, some scrambled eggs, and orange juice.

Raph order scrambled eggs with bacon and sausage, with milk.

I ordered two pancakes with bacon and hot coffee, but the girl said I was too young and gave me hot chocolate.

Of course the guys laughed at that, Raph really enjoyed it.

Our food came and Mikey was already half way done eating it! I have to study his eating one day.

Leo calmly ate his food turning a little green again watching Mikey.

Raph poked at his, guess he doesn't trust food made by other people, and then started munching on his bacon.

I, now concerned about my food did the same.

"You look like shell," Raph chuckled at me.

'Great' "I was up all night," I mumbled.

"Doing what playing with more things you shouldn't be messing with," Raph looked smug.

'How dare he say that! I was up all night working on the cure his killing me over for'.

"No working on a cure," I growled.

"That we would not need if you didn't mess up," Raph's smug look gone replaced with anger he has been waiting to let out at me, and I just gave him a reason, shell.

'I don't believe him what else does he want from me and it is his fault too!' I knew he was baiting me but I didn't care lack of sleep was getting to me.

"You're the one who knocked me down!" Why am I yelling I deserve this, right?

Leo and Mikey's eye are on use now and so it some of the other people at the restaurant.

I think I hit a nerve because Raph looks pissed.

"Don't blame me!" Raph stood up a hit the table with both hands.

"Why that's what you have been doing to me!" Well that because I deserve it.

At that point everything stopped and I felt a hard force hit my cheek and I fell to the ground.

'He, he hit me, my older brother hit me, the person I trusted just hit me,' I sat in shock looking up at Raph.

Leo is yelling at Raph a trying to get to me but Raph is in the way.

Mikey is staring in stock and I think fear.

Raph is shocked to and not moving, just staring back at me.

I think I am scared because when Raph takes a step closer to me I pull myself backwards.

Everyone is staring, so many human looking at me, I didn't realize so many people were here.

So I run, away from the Pancake house from April and Casey, and from my brothers and from Raph.

I am not sure where to go and I can't really see because I think I am crying I hope not though I am weak enough as it is.

'What happen, what have I done, how did my mess up change everything so fast.'

'Never would I have thought Raph would hit ME!'

'He tried to hit Leo before and Mikey, but never me I thought we were close, I thought I was the one my brothers came to when they needed help or to calm down, and that defiantly applied to Raph.'

'But I ruined everything with my stupid test and inventions, why do I have to be so curious, why can't I just be a good ninja like Leo, a fighter like Raph, or as fast as Mikey.'

I slow down and take a deep breath; I go into an ally because I am pretty sure I am crying now.

I sit down, man when did I get so depressed?

Gosh this is not me, I need to suck it up and fix this, I a frickin sakes I shouldn't be crying in an ally.

Human hormones must be taking effect of my mind, that's not good.

As turtles we only act like this at breeding season, which as always the worst week to month every!

I start laughing; people must think I am weird sitting in an ally laughing.

Something jumps over the roof and I hold my breath, is that my brothers?

More shadows, Oh No!

"Foot ninja's," I whisper and hide myself deeper in the shadows.

'How did they find us? Do they know what we look like now! Do they even know we are humans! Do they know where the farm house is! Is Master Splinter ok!?'

A ninja looks down at me and I pretend I don't see it and dig myself deeper into the shadows of the ally wall.

It leaves and I stand up and run out of the ally and make my way to the farm house.

I need to check on Splinter, I don't remember where the Pancake house is and I ran farther then I thought from it.

I go thought the woods, the foot might be watching the road and I don't have enough information to do anything right now without caution.

As I am walking the farm house my eyes tear up again, it's been a hard week and my body and mind can't take this, stupid hormones.

I am so tried but I am getting close to the house I wish that girl would have given me some coffee, I didn't sleep at all last night.

I stop, there is a weird noise.

'Please don't be the Foot, please don't be the Foot,' I begged whoever was listening.

Then I spotted a bunch of boys walking through the woods spray painting trees and popping fire crackers.

'Shit I rather it be Foot ninja's,' I thought at least I can fight back then.

'I should run,' I turned and started running.

"Hey you!" I heard someone yell behind me.

"Shit," I said out loud and ran faster.

I heard some whispering and laughs then footsteps following me.

"Come on nerd!"

"We just want to play."

They were getting closer, and I was slowing down, why did I stay up last night!

I then was tackled to the ground, ow.

"Well this is a wonderful surprise," Jacob had a smug smile, "not we can finish what we started in the library."

"About that, why would you bet someone up in a library I mean come on," I felt a little badass even though I was tackled to the ground seconds ago and was crying in an ally.

"Hmm you look like crap," Jacob didn't answer my question.

"I've heard that already," I am going to get my ass kicked if I don't shut up.

Duke once again picked me up and held me.

"Ooo that's a nasty bruise, who was beating up my nerd?" Jacob said holding my chin looking at Raph's bruise.

"When did I become yours?" I scoffed.

That earned me a punch to my ribs exactly on my ribs where he hit last time.

I lost my breath and choked gasping for air.

"Oh I am sorry did that hurt?" Jacob asked smugly.

"Uh yeah!" I yelled back, if he was going to beat me up he can at least be quiet.

This time he grabbed a handful of my light brown hair and Duke let go of my arms.

"I have the feeling your making fun of me," Jacob said harshly.

"How could I not," Man I need to shut up.

Jacob took my hair and hit the side of my head into a tree. My legs when out and I feel to the forest ground. Damn that hurt.

Jacob started kicking me in the stomach and I heard someone coming up behind him, probably Duke.

"What the shell!"

Leo? Well that's unexpected. I must be closer to the house then I thought.

Leo stood emotionless but I could he was pissed. I wonder if his mad at me for running off?

"Sup Leo," Jacob said casually, "want to join?"

Leo grabbed Jacob's shirt and pulled him closer to him.

"What do you think," Leo said deeply then punched Jacob in the jaw sending him to the ground.

"Whoa dude what's your problem," Jacob said standing back up.

Leo looked down at me and I broke eye contact immediately. This is awkward.

"My problem? Your beating up my little brother!" Leo moved in front of me.

"He asked for it, he pushed me down in the hallway!" Jacob and Duke went to tackle Leo which Leo easily dodged.

'Where did everyone else go?'

Two other guys grabbed me.

"Oh there you are, I was worried," I said sarcastically and they gave me weird looks. That's it I easily broke out of their grip and knocked then down with a swift kick. They looked shocked and ran off.

Crap hope that wasn't a mistake.

Leo looked back over to me still fighting with Duke and Jacob. I joined him; Leo did a good job at not going ninja even though he had to stop himself a few times. Soon everyone ran off but me and Leo.

"You okay Donnie?" Leo asked calmly but his eyes told me he was worried as shell.

"Yeah nothing to bad," I mumbled letting him check over me.

"Is this what you meant when you thought people were giving you weird looks?" Leo asked, already finding always to blame himself.

I smiled sheepishly, "Yeah kind of," Leo looked mad, probably at himself.

"I am sorry," Leo told me.

"No it's my fault I should have done something after what happen in the library," Crap that slipped.

"What happen in the library," Leo demanded, worried.

I sighed and lifted up my shirt to show a large bruise on my ribs.

Leo looked anger, "why didn't you tell me?" Leo demanded.

"Well it was kind of my fault-"

"How on earth is that your fault!" Leo asked pointed at my bruise.

"Well I, I went to the library a, an," Shell I don't remember why it's my fault, I just know it is.

"And?" Leo wanted me to finish.

"I should have left faster?" I shrugged, no that wasn't why I remember why now.

"Don't lie," Leo told me. I don't think I knew why when it happened either.

"I wanted them too," Donnie replied softly. I guess I didn't do anything because I wanted them to.

"You what! Why?!" Leo looked shocked.

"I deserved it!" I don't know why I started yelling but I was angry.

"Why would you deserve it!? Leo asked shocked.

"Be because I messed up, bigtime!" I replied, I think I am crying again.

Leo eyes soften, and I think he understands, "Donnie I… why would you restored to this?"

"Because it was the only thing that… I … I didn't know what to do, I don't think I even knew I was doing it," I sighed, man I am screwed up.

"You could have talked to us?" Leo reminded.

"But would you even want to, I know you were having trouble with your weapons and Mikey with his skateboard, Raph just hates me, I messed up your lives why would you help me?" I looked down, "I even messed up Splinters life by taking his sons away and Aprils by bugging her to do this."

"First of all Raph and us don't hate you-"

"But-"

"Yeah I know he is just emotion and he feels bad about what happened this morning, this is just a really big change and really different from what we are used to," Leo said and I looked down guilty.

"Me and Mikey can adjust to everything it's not that be a deal, Splinter would never hate you, you forget you're his son too and April volunteered," Leo reminded me and smiled.

I returned the smile; I don't know why I was so down about this I forgot about my family personalities.

Leo looked at me again, "I am crying again aren't I?" I asked my oldest brother with a laugh.

"Yep," he replied.

"It's the human hormones, it's like breeding season but every day," I assured.

"Oh is that why," Leo asked curiously and relived.

"Yeah, why?" I asked. That's weird.

"Um well I was practicing and I messed up and stared um…crying," Leo said quietly and embarrassed.

My eyes wided with shock as what Leo said sunk in, "Are you serious?"

Leo nodded and I started to laugh.

"Don't tell anyone," Leo scolded me and I smiled and nodded, "good lets head home."

I agreed and started to walk beside Leo.

"Wait!"

"What?" Leo stopped.

"I saw the Foot today!" I remembered earlier today.

"What!?" Leo serious face returned again.

"Today when I was in an ally, long story, I saw the Foot on the roof," I told Leo.

"Did they see you," Leo asked worried.

"I think one did, but I don't think it knew who I was," I told Leo.

"I will call April and Raph to come back, we need to tell Splinter," Leo said and pulled out his phone.

"Where are Raph and April in town looking for you, come on lets go," Leo said and started to run back to the farm.

I followed Leo back to the house.

This is probably the worst day Donnie has ever had, agreed lol. I was just added fan ideas into the story which when along pretty well if I do say so myself. Anyway hope you enjoyed, please review!
