I wrote this for the user metaknightgirl13 on dA. :3 She is also a Dark Turtles fan, and her two favourites are Dark Leo and Dark Raph, so I wrote this! It isn't linked in any way to the other oneshot. None of them will be, unless I say otherwise. :P
"Aww... is little Raphie drawing himself imaginary friends who are uglier than he is so he can feel better about himself?" asked Dark Mikey mockingly, smirking at Dark Raph, who actually looked tearful. A shadow fell over the two, and Dark Mikey looked up. "Very dramatic Leo," said Dark Mikey, rolling his eyes. Dark Leo didn't reply, he just jumped down from the upper floor of their lair and stalked towards Dark Mikey, who actually started looking a little nervous now. When he was finally inches away from the yellow clone's face, Dark Leo spoke.
"Either you leave for awhile, or I will smash your face into something after swinging you around by your greasy rag of a tongue." Dark Mikey frowned, looking offended.
"It is NOT greasy!"
"OUT!" roared Dark Leo, sending Dark Mikey scrambling for the exit. Dark Raph was picking up his art supplies and was ready to go upstairs to feel bad in his room when Dark Leo stopped him. "What did he say Raph?" Dark Raph shook his head.
"It doesn' matta," he said, looking down.
"Maybe not to you, though I seriously doubt that, but it does matter to me," said Dark Leo, putting a hand on Dark Raph's shoulder. "What did he say?" Dark Raph quietly repeated what Dark Mikey had said. "Let me tell you a secret Raph." Dark Raph looked up, curious. "Will you promise not to tell anyone?"
"Sure."
"You know those drawings of yours that went missing?" Dark Raph nodded, wondering how the blue clone knew of this. "Mikey took them, he likes your drawings but doesn't want to admit it, so he acts like an ass and insults you and your art so that you won't realize." Dark Raph blinked.
"Are ya serious?"
"Completely. I also like your drawings, they are very well done, especially when you consider how much bigger our hands are than the tools we have for drawing." Dark Raph smiled shyly.
"Did ya- did ya want me ta draw somethin' for ya?" Dark Leo smiled and sat beside Dark Raph.
"I would like that very much, brother."
OoOoO
When Dark Mikey came back, he found Dark Don muttering while scribbling something down, and his other two brothers were nowhere to be seen. "Don?"
"Leave me alone, Cheese Head, I'm busy."
"Look, I only wanna know where Leo and Raph are."
"If you are talking about our brothers, they are in your room, doing something or other. If you are talking about our counterparts, they are at the penthouse, as per usual." Dark Mikey didn't hear the last bit, he was already careening towards his room. When he opened the door, he found Dark Leo and Dark Raph sorting through the pictures he had stolen from Dark Raph.
"HEY!" They looked up.
"Did I not tell you to leave?" asked Dark Leo, eye narrowing.
"What right do you have to be in MY room?" barked Dark Mikey, scowling.
"What right did you have ta steal MY pictures?" asked Dark Raph.
"Oh shut up ugly," snapped Dark Mikey, turning back to Dark Leo. Dark Raph was up in a second and was poking Dark Mikey in the chest.
"No, YOU shut up! And if I find ya've stolen any of my pictures eva again... I'll gut ya." Dark Mikey opened his mouth to retaliate, but was cut off by Dark Leo.
"And I will be happily assisting him in that endeavor." Dark Leo got up and picked up the box of drawings. "Come on Raph, let's go watch a movie or something." The two brothers exited the room, leaving Dark Mikey absolutely furious.
"Hey Don, did ya want to watch a movie with us?" asked Dark Raph.
"Sure, just as soon as I finish these calculations..." said Dark Don absently, still bent over his holographic notepad. "This has to add up, it just has to!"
"He'll join us when he's ready Raph," said Dark Leo, smiling. "Come on." When they finally sat in front of the TV, they both watched an old movie called Ponyo on the Cliff. Halfway through it, Dark Leo wrapped an arm around Dark Raph, who leaned against Dark Leo.
"Hey bro?"
"Mmmhmm?"
"I'm glad ya changed afta ya stayed at the penthouse for awhile." Dark Leo was quiet for a moment, then he quietly responded.
"I'm glad I started paying more attention to you guys as individuals."
Possible lameness may be attributed to the fact that A) Dark Leo is the only clone who had much character development, and B) my muse ran out on me halfway through, though perhaps this should have been reason A... *taps chin* Anyway, I wanted them to watch something sweet, so I chose Ponyo. :3 And think of it this way, though Dark Raph is no goldfish daughter of an ocean goddess, he IS under the guardianship of Dark Leo, when you look at it a certain way. And Dark Leo DOES protect Dark Raph in this, and make him feel better. If I get a better idea for these two, I shall try and write it. Also, I like the idea of Raph being a reader (and possibly reading 'girly' books), so I made Dark Raph an artist. :)
Disclaimer: Haven't we gone over this already? If she owned these guys, do you REALLY think the Dark Turtles would have only appeared in three episodes? And do you REALLY think Raph would have been such a jerk to Dark Leo?
Read and review! :D
