I'm standing in my room once again, I'm smiling happily at you all.
''Hey guys! So I actually got a great response so it looks like random chatting is starting up again! Thanks so much!'' I nod before frowning. ''Ok so… um… My room's changed, it's all green and my bed is in the centre of the room with the head rest against the back wall facing the door. My desk is to the left, my tv is in front of the bed and my window is to the right. So now you can picture the environment we're in. I failed to do that last time… oops?''
I blush awkwardly before grinning.
''I have also changed! I now have really short hair like… a boys haircut! I still have dark brown hair and my eyes are still hazel but unfortunately I've actually gotten paler due to having Anaemia. I have long nails and I wear boy clothes. No make-up for me! I also wear skinny jeans and huge boy hoodies. Um… I'm also wearing navy (fake) converse.'' I look at myself in the mirror on the left side of the room. ''Yeah that's about it… By the way the mirror I'm looking in is the walk in wardrobe that holds the portal. I don't think I ever actually mentioned that.''
I look around the room before nodding in satisfaction.
''Ok!'' I smile. ''Enough about me! Let's get the turtles in here''
I open the wardrobe and stick my head in the portal.
''GUYS! COME ON!'' I step back as the 2014 turtles come through, I frown. ''Oops… wrong turtles.''
''Who the hell are you'' Raph demands. ''Why ya writin' everything I say?''
I back away slightly.
''Look, I never meant to call you guys'' I blush, Donnie looks at the portal in interest. ''Donnie stop staring at it like that!''
Raph steps towards me threateningly as Leo and Mikey step in front of Donnie protectively.
''How do ya know my brother's name?'' Raph growled as he pulled out a sai.
''Um… just a lucky guess?'' I squeak. My portal flashes and the 2K12 turtles step out and stare in shock. ''Guys!'' I grin but they're staring at the giant turtles in front of them.
''Dude'' Mikey gasps, ''They're huge!''
''I'll explain later'' I say to the 2014 turtles. ''Can you just leave for now?''
They nod once and leave. The guys rush to my side and hug me with huge grins.
''RAN!'' They cheer. Raph ruffles my short hair fondly.
''You're tryin' too hard ta be a boy'' He smirks, I swat his hand playfully. ''Ya look good!''
''Have you been practising Ran?'' Leo asks as he looks at my room.
''Of course'' I nod as I go to my bag and pull out my Hanbo and chain. ''I practice every day''
They grin.
''Your room is turtle coloured!'' Mikey grinned as he leapt on my bed and spread his arms out. ''And you have loads of posters! Loki, the giant versions of us, Dan and Phil, Sherlock and loads of paintings!''
I blush before grinning excitedly.
''You guys won't believe what I did yesterday!'' I grin, they look at me expectantly. ''I made Lemon meringue pie and it actually looked great and tasted amazing!''
''You actually successfully cooked something!?'' The guys exclaim.
''I know!'' I punch the air excitedly, ''I can finally feed myself!''
''What? You just gonna live off Lemon meringue pie for the rest of your life?'' Donnie smirks. I shrug happily. ''So how's school?''
''I've left'' I reply excitedly, ''I am now at college studying Pathways to Health and Social care.''
Donnie nods to show he's impressed. Mikey nudges me.
''College girl huh?'' he grins. ''That's hot!''
''ANYWAY!'' I yell. ''Let's get on with it! WE'RE FINALLY BACK!'' We all high five/three each other.
''Let's do this!'' Raph and Leo nod.
''Ok'' I pick up my phone and smile. ''Ehwhat… thanks for the lovely review! And now the guys and I will watch the trailer for Annabelle''
''What's Annabelle?'' Mikey asks excitedly.
''It's a 2014 horror movie about a doll. My brother went to see it with his girlfriend/fiancé'' I reply breathlessly. ''I hate horror movies… this trailer better not be scary''
We sit down around my computer as I press play.
''How is this guy so calm about being covered in someone else's blood?'' I frown.
The others shrug.
''Why would someone own such a creepy doll?'' Donnie gulped. ''She deserves to be haunted!''
We all nod.
''WHAT THE FUCK!?'' We shout as the girl runs at the closing door and flies at the mum, we all burst out laughing.
''She can fly!'' Mikey squealed in a girly voice. ''Oh my god!''
''That was stupid'' Raph smirks. ''Did your bro say if it was scary?''
''I don't know I didn't ask'' I shrug. ''It'd probably scare me''
They nod.
''Ok then'' I look back at my phone, ''Cat girl… Dance competition with the 2K14 turtles? Ok then.''
I open the portal and the 2014 turtles come through. I explain everything about how I now them and what we're doing before telling them what the dare was.
''OH YEAH!'' 2K14 Mikey cheers. ''LET'S GO! WE'RE SO GONNA WIN BRUH!''
Me and the 2K12 turtles go first, we look at each other before shrugging. I decide to do the dance I had to do for the Christmas show last year. (Basically just a bunch of jumping, arm waving and trying to look professional).
Lady Ga Ga's Americano starts playing.
'I met a girl in east LA,
In floral shorts as sweet as may.
She sang in eights in two Barrio Chords,
We fell in love but not in court.
La la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la.'
We danced until the end of the song.
'Don't you try and catch me!
Don't you try and catch me!
No no no no!
I'm living on the edge of
Living on the edge of the
Law law law law!'
We stop and nod at the 2K14 turtles. They laugh at us before standing in front of us, the song plays again and they show off their breakdancing skills.
Unfortunately they start trying to show each other up and it ends with them fighting one another in a heap.
''That was great guys'' I say sarcastically. They carry on fighting, I clear my throat. ''STOP FIGHTING! NOW!''
They leap to their feet and stand in front of me in shock. I nod sternly before pointing to the portal.
''Go home'' I demand, they bow their heads and leave. I turn and grin at my turtles. ''Shall we see what's next?''
They nod smiling.
''So this dare was actually posted on the original random chatting but I thought you guys would want to do it. Allihachi: Let them ask you some questions.'' I smile at the guys, ''Go ahead. One question per turtle''
Leo steps forward first.
''Why have you been writing so many fanfictions about Donnie recently?'' He asked, Donnie sent him a smile as Mikey scowled.
''Because I'm really starting to love him. Donnie is quickly becoming my favourite character in TMNT and he's one of the most tragic.'' Don suddenly looks offended. ''Well you are! In the 2K3 version you are so gentle and sweet yet you get turned into a monster, lose Kirby when you've just become his friend and you were the only one sent to a horrible nightmare dimension by the ultimate Draco! In 2K12 You've lost Timothy and Metalhead, Casey used to be a douche to you, your brothers bully you and put you down constantly and… In every version there is of you… You're so alone. You are so different from your brothers and your treated like a handyman because of it''
Donnie looks down at the ground in thought, the others look guilty.
''She's right Donnie'' Leo sighs, ''We're sorry''
''Yeah man'' Rah puts a hand on Donnie's shoulder.
''I'll make you your favourite dinner when we get home!'' Mikey grins happily, ''Will you be ok?''
Donnie grins at his brothers.
''Don't worry about it guys'' He blushed.
''Who's next?'' I ask. Mikey steps up.
''Does this mean you don't love me anymore?'' He demands, I giggle.
''Of course I still love you Mikey'' I grin, ''But you've got competition!'' Mikey fake glares at Donnie before turning to me.
''Why are you such a dude?'' Mikey asks curiously, I frown.
''You've already asked a question'' I protest.
''But it wasn't serious'' He splutters.
''Uh…'' I frown. ''I'm not 'Such a dude' Mikey.'' I sigh. ''Look. I'm still a girl. I still act like a girl and look like a girl but I also act like a boy and try to look like a boy because that's who I am. I'm no longer in high school so I can be myself because nobody in college judges me, I'm just being me Mikey, nothing more than that''
Mikey grins and hugs me before stepping back. Raph steps forwards, he looks a little awkward and concerned.
''So uh… does this mean you're happy now? You're better?'' He asks worriedly, the others look at me the same way. I smile.
''Yes Raphie'' I hug him tightly. ''I'm better and SO much happier.''
He grins and steps back, Donnie steps forwards.
''Got any new obsessions?'' He asks with a cheeky grin.
''I am now obsessed with musicals… more so than I was'' I nod. ''Recently I went to see Wicked… two nights ago I saw Joseph and his amazing Technicolor dreamcoat and in April I'm going to see Jesus Christ Superstar. I have bought the dvds of Phantom of the Opera, Les Misérables, Mamma Mia, Hairspray and I own a bunch of other ones like Fiddler on the roof, Calamity Jane, Joseph and his Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.'' I grin as the others stare at me.
''Holy shit Ran'' Raph frowned.
''Language'' I warn, they all smirk and roll their eyes.
''What's next Ran?'' Mikey asks, I pick up my phone.
''Unicorn-vomit (a.k.a Sika) is happy we are back and has a question for you guys'' I smile, ''She wants to know how you guys felt during the time between chapter 9 and now''
They look at one another.
''Bored dudette'' Mikey pouted. ''We had nothing to do except fight punks off the street.''
''We've watched the show… not the movie but it just made us miss that kind of action'' Leo sighed. ''The foot have been real quiet recently''
''We've missed you Ran'' Donnie looked at me with a blush. ''We read your stories but… it wasn't the same as seeing you every day. You barely ever visited…''
''I couldn't'' I say guiltily. ''I was a mess most of the time, you wouldn't have wanted to see that. Recently I've been really busy starting college, trying to get a job, trying to get the confidence to dress the way I want to and be the person I wanted to be'' I sigh. ''I'm sorry for only visiting occasionally. I promise to visit you every day from now on.''
''You wanna come over for dinner tonight Ran?'' Mikey grinned.
''Sure!'' I grin, ''My parents won't mind''
''I still can't believe you introduced us to yer parents'' Raph growled.
''Yeah'' I smirk before facing you guys. ''They came to mine yesterday so I could tell them the good news and I decided to prove to my parents that ninja turtles weren't so dumb after all!''
The turtles smirk.
''What else happened?'' I ask curiously.
''Nothing'' Raph replied. ''We had nothing to do''
''Moving on then'' I shrug. ''bookworm563 has something for each of you'' The turtles nod. ''Donnie first. Does Casey ever threaten you at all? Like, do you think he'll take April for good one day?''
''He does threaten me a lot about that'' Donnie replies nervously, ''He also tells me that Raph doesn't like me… he says Raph prefers him and that all my brothers would throw me out and replace me with him if Splinter wasn't around to stop them''
I gasp before frowning.
''Well that's not very nice'' I shake my head. ''I like this version of Casey too… I'm assuming you don't believe him?''
Donnie shrugs.
''Well sometimes I don't but… I don't know… he fits in better with them than I do'' Donnie bows his head.
''Shut up Donnie'' Raph snaps. ''I'll punch Casey later for threatening you like that. You know he's lyin'!''
''I love you Donnie'' Mikey pouts as he hugs Don, ''I don't prefer Casey''
''Me niether'' Leo nodded fiercly. ''We'll have to talk about this to Casey later''
They all hug and I grin.
''Cute'' I smile as they pull away from each other. ''There was anoher dare but you guys didn't really do any of that anyway so… you each get a malteaser'' I hand Mikey, Don and Raph the box and they each have a malteaser.
''You want one Leo?'' Mikey asks as he hands Leo the box but I grab it first.
''I didn't say you could have one'' I grin, Leo looks at me and my grin gets wider. ''Don't worry! You can have some Lemon Meringue Pie after we've done this''
Leo grins.
''Ok. Leo: Once you get Karai back, will you keep calling her Karai or Miwa?'' I ask.
''I'll call her whatever name she's comfortable with'' Leo replies easily.
''Ok... we're to look up oobie theme song on youtube'' I frown. ''I feel scared''
I open up youtube and press play.
''What the-?'' I squint as I look closer at the screen. ''Are those… hands? Does this count oas entertainment for little kids?''
The guys shrug.
''That's kinda weird'' Raph looks at Mikey as said turtle looks sadly at his hands. ''What?''
''We can't do that'' Mikey tries but there's no way to put eyes on his hand.
''And on that note it's the end'' I smile. ''Do you guys remember how we used to end it?''
The guys look at you.
''Thanks for reading! Please leave a review with a dare, question, visitor or whatever'' They say together.
''BYE!''
