Mother Turtle
Chapter 8
Disclaimer: If you think that I invented the concept of four mutant turtles and a giant rat – then you need to get an education. I have however, come up with the concept to turn those four turtles into human teenagers.
Four teenage boys walked along the path, the one with blonde curly hair and glasses looked like he was the leader. Then followed closely behind was the blond haired boy carrying a lap top and books, while not far behind was a dark curly haired boy and his blonde haired twin brother. They followed their big brother to the tree which they had marked as their special meeting place when they were kids. They had climbed that tree when they were children, it was the tree Mikey had fallen out of and broken his arm.
They all sat down, the youngest three all turned to the one who was almost a man.
"Okay, reason we're doing this Donnie, is because, Masumi has been in our home for four days and some issues have arrised, which I really think we need to discuss. I think we've all experienced some of the same problems. We need to work together on this one."
"Yeah, like since when was there ever a renasonse artist named Donavan?" Mikey shock his head, " I mean hello, everyone knows that we're named by Italian artists. That is escept her."
"Donavan?" Donnie asked.
"She thinks your Donavan," Leo told his middle brother.
"You kidding me? She thought it was Dominic the other day," Donnie said.
"Isn't that like a girl's name?" Mikey asked.
"What about the bloody fire hazard?" Raph throw in.
"What fire hazard?" Donnie asked.
"Okay Donnie, you're the most intelligent person I know,"
"You obviously don't know too many people," Mikey said.
"Shut your trap Monkey, now's not the time to tick me off! I mean fire hazard? How on earth can a hockey stick be a fire hazard?" Raph cried.
"I don't know, what was it doing?"
"It's a hockey stick, Donnie, it wasn't doing anything," Raph replied, annoyed.
"It was on the doorway. Maybe she thought someone would trip on it," Leo told his brother.
"Oh that's right, take her side, why don't you. You always have to take the parent's side," Raph replied.
"She's not our parent!" Donnie demanded.
"She's starting to ask like it, I mean she told me off for having a can of coke on the couch the other day," Mikey told his brother.
"Yeah and she told me to wipe me shoes," Raph added in.
"And she even asked Leo to go practice down the park," Mikey added.
"How do you know about that?" Leo looked surprised.
"I heard her telling you. Shortly after she told me not to do my sculpture on the dinning table and she was in front of the TV watching some program with old women on it talking about PMS."
"She looks a bit old to have PMS," Raph said.
"Oh and you're the expert on woman's mood swings are you?" Leo looked at his little brother.
"He has that many mood swings, maybe Raph has PMS," Mikey chuckled, earning him a threat of Raph's fist.
"You punching Mikey's lights out won't fix the problem of Masumi," Donnie told his brother.
"Yeah, but it'll shut his dumb trap," Raph growled.
"Guys, come on, we need to pull together here. We are talking about Masumi," Leo said.
"The stupid pain she is."
"Yeah and the fact she don't even know our names. I mean how many times has she called me Leo in the last couple of days?" Mikey said.
Donnie laughed, "Yeah, she thinks I'm Leo too!"
"Wait til you hear your new name," Raph said to Donnie, "I mean remember the lady down that bakery where we used to buy pies from? She thought your name was Donald when she heard us calling you Donnie."
"Oh don't tell me she thinks my name is Donald!" Donnie hit his hand to his head.
"No, it's Donavan actually," Leo told him.
"Where did she get that from?" Donnie asked.
"Yeah I never heard of an Italian artist called Donavan. I mean hello, surely Splinter's mentioned to the woman that we're all named after Renaissance Artists!"
"Yeah, Mom and Splinter went through the book, Leonardo, Michealangelo, Raphael and oh Donavan. I mean that don't even sound Italian, let alone renaissance!" Mikey joked.
"She seriously needs to go back to school and get an education," Raph said.
"Yeah maybe Mikey you should invite her to your art lessons," Leo teased.
"Yeah, just don't let her go when you have the nude drawing lesson, cause you seriously don't want the teacher thinking she's come to be the model," Raph laughed.
"NO!" Mikey's eyes opened wider, "Never!"
"You are having a nude model in art class?" Donnie raised an eye-brow.
"Yeah, total bummer, hey Donnie. I knew I should have chosen art this year!" Raph flicked his fingers.
"Raph you can't even draw a straight line, let alone draw a naked woman, so why do art. You said it was boring last year," Leo said.
"That was when all we draw was stupid fruit! Even you dropped art as soon as you could!" Raph replied.
"I dropped art, because Mrs Felix-Brown thought because of my name, I would be a natural born artist, I guess three of us proved her wrong," Leo said. Raph and Donnie had also dropped art because they found boring.
"Yeah Mikey was the only one to let the team down," Raph playfully punched his brother, "But I guess we can forgive ya."
"Guys, come on, we're off track," Leo said.
"True," Donnie said.
"Alright, what do you suggest we do?" Raph asked, looking at his older brothers.
