Eclips giggled as Raph poked her sides gently. "So how are we going to change them back when we have no idea how this even happened." Raph asked quietly as Donnie was sleeping in Leo's arms.
"April could help." Leo said as he rocked Donnie in his arms. "But first things first. We're going to need to take shifts taking care of these two during the night. I can do tonight if you guys want." Leo said.
"Sounds good." Raph said as he picked up Eclips and threw her up in the air a little before caching her and repeating the action as Eclips giggle and screamed happily.
Donnie began to wiggle around being wakening by Eclips's screaming. Raph immediately stopped throwing Eclips not wanting to wake Donnie. "We need somewhere for them to sleep." Raph said. Leo nodded as he rocked Donnie back to sleep.
"We never had a crib when we were young maybe Splinter- Leo frowned remembering Splinter wasn't going to help them. "Anyone remember where we slept when we were babies?" Leo asked his two brothers. Raph shrugged but Mikey jumped up happily.
"I know!" He ran off down the hall.
"Ok?" Leo watched Mikey vanish down the hall then turned his attention to Raph. "I don't know if leaving these two with Mikey would be a good idea. Maybe only you and I should do the shifts." Leo said.
Raph frowned and sat Eclips in his lap. "You'll upset him if you tell him that." Raph said plainly.
"I know but I just think-
"No I get why you don't want Mikey looking after them, believe me. Maybe have him do something else. Like clean up after them or cook." Raph said.
"Like a maid." Leo laughed a little.
"Well he is the only one of us who can cook, plus April could show him how to make the baby milk and food." Raph laughed as Eclips began to chew on his finger.
"Wonder if he'd go for it?" Leo asked just before Mikey came back into the living room.
"Can I have Donnie?" Mikey asked. Leo nodded and handed the sleeping tot to his brother. Mikey smiled happily before making his way back down the hall. Leo and Raph followed their younger brother into Eclips's room. Mikey had set up a small play pen just small enough for Mikey to step over. "I remembered Splinter kept us in this because it was the only thing that was too high of us to climb out of. " Mikey said as he placed Donnie into the nest Mikey had made off pillows.
"Um Mikey did you take all of our pillows?" Leo asked. Mikey smiled and nodded.
"Well not mine, I need something to sleep with." Mikey said happily. Leo and Raph frowned and shook their head.
"Well it's nice and looks safe." Leo said as he tested the solidness of the pen.
"Hello!" April's voice echoed down the hall.
The others quickly left the room, leaving Donnie to sleep in peace. "Hey April, Casey. May want to keep the noise down Donnie's taking a nap." Raph said as he and his brothers approached their human friends.
"Oh!" April reached out and took Eclips from Raph. She held Eclips in her arms and starred at her. "She adorable!" Eclips giggled and played with Aprils fringe.
"Wait did you say Donnie's sleeping?" Casey asked. "Shouldn't the dude be trying to fix this."
"Um…" Leo looked at Raph and Mikey. "Well he kind of got turned into a baby… as well." Leo said.
Casey covered his mouth and tried not to laugh but couldn't help but let a few laughs escape his mouth. "Really?"
"Yes and it's not funny. Now we don't have a way to turn them back." Raph snapped.
"Did Donnie take any tests before he changed?" April asked as she handed Eclips to Mikey.
"Yeah he took a blood test and some other tests but we haven't cheek anything after he changed." Leo said.
"Ok well I'll go have a look." April smiled before heading for the lab.
"I'll help you." Raph said following her.
Leo, Mikey and Casey sat on the couch. Mikey put Eclips on the floor to see what she would do. The three of them watched as Eclips began to crew on her hand. "She needs something to crew on." Leo said.
"I think April got a crew toy." Casey said as he look through the bags April had brought.
"Dudes she's not a dog." Mikey said.
Leo laughed a little. "He means teething toys."
"Here. We got edible teething sticks, dummy or teething toys." Casey said.
"Us the chew sticks and teething toys." Splinter said. "Save the dummy for Donatello, with his gap tooth he won't chew on anything."
"I thought you weren't going to help us?" Mikey asked.
Splinter sighed. "I will always make sure my children are happy and healthy. I had a lot of trouble with Donatello's teeth."
"Will it happen again?" Leo asked concerned.
"Prevent him from chewing on anything solid and he should be fine." Splinter said.
"Ok thanks Sensei." Leo thanked just as Splinter walked away.
Casey took one of the teething toys and held it to Eclips. "Here chew on this and not your hand." Casey said.
Eclips looked at Casey then to the toy. After a minute Eclips turned away and continued to chew on her hand. "She doesn't want it." Casey said as he threw the toy at Leo.
Leo frowned and walked over to Eclips he picked her up and sat down with her in his lap. "No." Leo said as he gentle coached Eclips's hand from her mouth. Eclips began to whimper as Leo held her hand and didn't let her chew on it "Shh, its ok try this." Leo held the toy to Eclips's lips. This time Eclips happily grabbed the toy and began to chew on it. Leo smirked and looked back at Casey.
"Puff Show off." Casey shot. Leo just laughed and continued to hold Eclips.
"Ok this is good." April said as she looked over Donnie's notes. "I should be able to find out what caused this and make an antidote."
Raph smiled as he watched April work. "That's good."
"You still want to help me?" April asked.
"Y-yeah." Raph nodded.
"Get Donnie for me. I need to take a blood test from him." April requested as she took out a needle.
Raph frowned. "But he's asleep and when we gave Eclips a needle she cried." Raph said.
April giggled. "You really are a big softy Raph." She punched his shoulder lightly. "I have to take the test now. I still have school and by the time I get back the results will be ready."
"Well that's easy for you, you just get to leave where I have to deal with a crying Donatello tot." Raph sighed as he left the lab.
April smiled as he left and continued to set up the equipment.
"Hey." Leo looked up at Raph as he walked through the living room. "April know if she can fix them?"
"Yeah she thinks so. I have to get Don for her so she can take a blood test." Raph said as he walked down the hall. "Donnie time to wake up buddy." Raph said as he walked into the room and looked down at his still sleeping brother. He reached down and picked Donnie up and cradled him in his arms.
Donnie began to whimper as Raph made his way down the hall. "Show me!" Casey ran to Raph's side and looked down at Donnie. "Dude what happened to him?"
"What do you mean?" Raph asked.
"Dude totally lost his looks when he grew up." Casey laughed.
Raph chuckled and pushed Casey roughly. "Shut up bozo." He said as he entered the lab. "Here's you victim." Raph smiled as he handed the half-awake Don to April.
April gasped as she took Donnie. "Oh he's cuter then Eclips."
Raph laughed. "I'll tell him you said that, bet Eclips will be jealous."
April just laughed and gave Donnie back to Raph. "I'm going to need you to hold him for me."
Raph sighed. "Fine, but make sure he knows you're the mean old lady who is putting a hole in his arm." Raph joked.
"Old!" April slapped Raph's shoulder. "I'm not old."
"Whatever you say." Raph smirked.
