This one-shot is for BrightLotusMoon and eeveemlp, both of them requested a fic in which Mikey keeps his powers and eeveemlp wanted him to use them on Halloween to scare people. :)

This story takes place exactly one year after the Halloween arc.

NOTE: There will probably be grammar mistakes which I will fix later.

Grinning like the Cheshire Cat under his mask, Mikey tiptoed to the couch, where Raph was playing a video game. He crept up behind his brother and took a deep breath...

"BLAAAHH-AAAHH-AAAHH-AAAHH-AAAAAHHHH!"

Mikey jumped onto the couch and made weird chanting sounds at the top of his lungs, waving his arms around.

Raph only continued to play his game, not even sparing his brother a glance. "Oh, hey, Mikey," he casually said.

Mikey's shoulders slumped. "Aww, man!" He took his mask off, revealing his pouty face. "You guys are no fun anymore! You're unscareable!"

"You can't scare us because you keep using the same tricks," Raph huffed. "You need to come up with something new."

"I can't!" Mikey whined, plopping himself down on the couch. "I tried every trick in the scare prank book!"

Raph raised an eye ridge. "Every trick, huh?" He grinned as he paused the game and pulled out his phone. He pushed a few buttons before handing it to Mikey. "Here, take a close look."

Mikey looked closely at the screen. To his confusion, a video of a very cute kitten playing with a ball of yarn was being shown. His eyes became large and sparkly as he watched the kitten flop onto its back and paw at the ball. "Awwwww, that's so cute-"

Suddenly the close-up screenshot of a terrifying mutilated face with red eyes popped up and a horrible screeching sound was heard. Mikey screamed and fell off the couch while Raph threw his head back and laughed his butt off.

"Guess you still got a lot to learn!" Raph hugged his gut as he continued to laugh. Mikey's face was flushed with embarrassment and he sulkingly walked to his bedroom.

...

"Grrrarrr! Rawr!"

With his mask back on, Mikey practiced his growling in front of his mirror. But the more he practiced, the weaker his growls got as he started to realize that he was losing his scare mojo.

What was even worse was that none of his bros wanted to go trick-or-treating anymore on account of them being, as Leo would put it, "too old for that kid stuff." His brothers were quickly growing up into boring adults and they expected Mikey to do the same, but he wanted to remain a kid for as long as he could, even though he knew that that wouldn't be possible.

Disheartened, he took the mask off and sat down on his bed. "Just one more night of fun and candy," he mumbled to himself. "That's all I ask." His face lit up as he got an idea. "Yeah, that's it! I'll beg them for just one more Halloween and then it's hello adulthood!"

He jumped off the bed and hurried out of his bedroom and into the lab. "Yo, D! What do you say we-?"

Donnie was nowhere in the lab, and then he remembered that the genius Turtle had gotten sick from eating bad pizza (Or was it outdated Pop-Tarts? He couldn't remember.). So even if Mikey wanted to go trick-or-treating for the last time, it wouldn't be right to leave Donnie out of the fun. There would be no Halloween tonight.

Sighing in defeat, Mikey started to drag himself out of the lab when he noticed something awesomely cool on the table.

"No way...a freaking plasma ball!"

He ran to the table and watched the pink electric lights wiggle around in the globe. Donnie must've recently invented this and hasn't told anyone yet. Or maybe he didn't want to tell Mikey specifically because he was afraid that his brother would somehow accidentally break the ball.

Mikey squirmed with excitement. He always wanted to have a plasma ball of his own because they were so cool. Very slowly he reached to touch the glass...

He giggled as a single line of electricity connected to his hand, then he started to get a strange tingling sensation in his fingertips. Tiny blue sparks emitted from his arm, then they grew larger into bolts of lightening that quickly surrounded his entire body. The short ends of his mask started to lift up by themselves.

"What...what's happening?"

He screamed shrilly as he was suddenly sucked into the ball in a flash of lightning. The pink lights became blue as Mikey's voice screamed from inside the globe.

What the-? Hey! HEY! LEMME OUTTA HERE! HELP! DONNIE! LEO! RAPH! SOMEBODY!

The globe tilted left and right as he struggled to get out, then the blue electricity finally escaped through the glass and bolted from one wall to the next like a ball in a pinball machine.

Ow! Ow! Ow! Ah! Help!

Then the lightning hit the recently repaired Metalhead, and its eyes glowed blue as it started to move. Whoa, no way, Mikey's voice spoke through the speakers as he looked down at his new body. He wiggled his hands and feet and chuckled in disbelief. I'm...I'm Metalhead!

He slowly got on his feet and moved around a bit before he broke into a silly dance, laughing in delight as he did. Ha ha ha! This is awesome! Weird, but awesome! Heyyyy, wait a minute. He rubbed his metal chin in thought as he looked around the lab. If I can go inside plasma balls and robots, then maybe...

His eyes locked on Donnie's laptop that was sitting on his desk. He shrugged his shoulders. Well, it's worth a shot. He zapped out of Metalhead and into the laptop. The screen flashed a blue light several times and made a whirring sound before it turned on. Mikey's face appeared on the screen and he pumped his fists victoriously.

Sweet! It worked! I can zap into computers too! Wait until the guys see this!

Then he got a brilliant idea, and his lips slowly formed a mischievous smile.

Raph pounded on the punching bag right after he finished the final round of his game. His hands felt numb after gripping the controller for so long so he decided to punch the feeling back into them. He never noticed the tiny lightning bolt that zapped into the phone in his belt. It dinged and he stopped punching for a moment to check his text messages. He received one from an unknown caller, and it read, "ICK MUSIC VID!".

Shrugging, he clicked on the message and it led him to a video of Ice Cream Kitty playing with a miniature guitar, singing in mews. Raph squinted his eyes and brought the phone closer to his face. "What the...? Ice Cream Ki-?"

Suddenly a close up of a Turtle's face popped up on the screen. His eyes glowed red and his screams were high-pitched and inhuman.

"AAAAHHHHH!" Raph screamed and dropped the phone in shock, backing up against a wall and clutching his chest as he tried to catch his breath. As he calmed himself down, he pondered over what that thing was. Come to think of it, that scary Turtle in the video looked awfully familiar, with its freckles and orange mask and-

Raph narrowed his eyes in anger. He should've known. "Mikey..." he growled.

...

"MIKEY!"

He pounded on his brother's door and continued to yell for him. "Open this door, you little twerp, before I break it down!"

"Raph!" Leo slid the dojo doors open and stomped over to his younger brother. "Will you stop that yelling! Donnie's trying to rest and I'm trying to meditate! What's your problem, anyway?"

"Mikey's the problem!" Raph angrily yelled. "He sent me this stupid screamer video and made me jump nearly ten feet out of my shell!"

Leo raised an eye ridge and crossed his arms. "So?"

"SO?! Leo, I could've had a heart attack! And he's gonna get the shell wedgie of his life for it!" He turned back to the door and pounded on it. "Mikey! Last chance! Open! The! Door!"

"Raph! Calm-!"

Too late. Raph kicked the door open and stomped into Mikey's room, searching for the little prankster. "Mikey, where are you?!" He looked under the bed and piles of empty pizza boxes, but Mikey was nowhere to be found. "He's hiding somewhere," he grumbled. "I just know it."

...

Meanwhile, in the world of the Internet, Mikey giggled like a madman, rubbing his palms together. Oh, man! That was gold! I wish I could've recorded that moment! Now who will be my next jump scare victim? Hmmmm...Ooh! I know!

In the O'Neil apartment, April's dad was throwing a Halloween party for his co-workers. Of course, April and Casey were more than welcomed to attend and they dressed up in costumes like everyone else. April was going as Beatrix Kiddo with a blonde wig to go with her outfit, while Casey dressed as Freddy Krueger. Casey was in the middle of telling a bad joke to April when a tiny blue lightning bolt zapped down from the telephone wires outside and straight into his phone, which was tucked in his back pocket.

"And then he said, 'Whatever you do, don't eat that cow!'" Casey slapped his knee as he laughed uncontrollably while April merely rolled her eyes.

"Yeah, good one, Jones," April deadpanned.

Casey's phone dinged and he pulled it out of his pocket to check his messages. He got one text from a mysterious caller. "'I-C-K MUSIC VID'?" he read out loud. Curious, he clicked on the message and a video of Ice Cream Kitty playing her guitar appeared on his screen. "Huh? Hey, April, check this-"

Mikey's scary face popped up and Casey dropped his phone, screaming like a girl. "AAAAAAAHHHHH!"

...

This is the best scare prank yet! Mikey declared as he traveled through the telephone wires. I could probably scare the whole city if I wanted to! Yeah, maybe I could...I'll give everyone a Halloween they'll never forget!

A small group of young trick-or-treaters giggled as they ran down the sidewalk to the next house, when all of their phones dinged simultaneously. They stopped and pulled out their phones, each of them receiving the same message from an unknown caller: "ICK MUSIC VID!".

A boy dressed up as Yoda looked at his friends confused. "You guys got the same text too?" They all nodded. "Weird. Let's watch it real quick." They all clicked on the message and watched the video.

"Awww," a girl in a fairy princess costume smiled as Ice Cream Kitty played her guitar. "What a cute kit-"

The moment Mikey's scary face popped up on the screen, all the kids screamed shrilly and dropped their bags of candy.

...

The tired, disgruntled plumber took a seat as the subway train started down the tunnel. It was a long day for him and he couldn't wait to get home and kick his feet up. Just then his phone dinged and he pulled it out to find that he had received a mysterious text message with a video link to it.

"'ICK MUSIC VID'?"

He clicked on the message and watched the video. "Yeesh, what an ugly looking ca-AAAAAAAAHHHH!"

Apparently he wasn't alone, as the other passengers began to scream at something that they saw on their phones.

...

"And as you can see from this chart, gentlemen, profits are escalating at a fast rate and-" The businessmen stopped in the middle of his presentation to the board when he heard his phone ding in his pocket. "Um, excuse me for a sec." He raised an eyebrow at the text message that he received and clicked on it.

Suddenly he screamed and dropped his phone on the glass table, earning very confused looks from the members of the board. This was very unprofessional behavior.

...

The weather lady smiled as she gestured to the map of the New York area on the screen behind her. "We should be expecting some rain tomorrow morning starting at 9 am until 10 am, and the rest of the day should be, um...uh..."

She trailed off as the screen suddenly showed a strange cat playing a small guitar. She glanced back and forth between the screen and camera and nervously chuckled. "Um, it looks like we're experiencing some technical-"

Mikey's screaming face popped up and the woman tumbled backwards as she let out a hair-raising scream.

...

"ARE YOU DUDES AND DUDETTES READY TO ROCK ON HALLOWEEN?!" a singer with wild long hair screamed into his microphone. The multitude of fans cheered in response, urging him to rock on.

The large screen that towered over the stage showed a close up of the band as they started to play metallic music. But in the middle of their song, the screen went static and the video of Ice Cream Kitty appeared, much to the confusion of the fans.

The singer noticed that their attention was focused on the screen and not him and looked up. "What in bloody...?"

As soon as the scary Turtle appeared, the whole crowd screamed in unison.

...

Suddenly every large screen in Times Square played the ICK music video, and nearly all of the citizens stopped whatever they were doing at the moment to look up. Some laughed, while others scratched their heads in confusion. They figured that it was some kind of special Halloween prank.

But as soon as the mysterious red-eyed Turtle appeared on the screens, all of Times Square echoed with screams of horror.

Mikey's face returned to normal and he laughed and waved at all the citizens. Happy Halloween, New York!

"Argh! Where is he?!" Raph picked up a cushion from the couch and threw it across the room in frustration. "He is so dead when I find him!"

From the other side of the living room, Leo watched and shook his head. "You know, if you keep making threats like that, he'll never come out."

"Shut up!" Raph snapped, throwing another cushion at Leo, which he easily dodged.

They heard someone yawning and turned to see Donnie walking into the living room. "What's all the commotion about?" he groggily asked as he rubbed his eyes.

"Raph's having a fit because Mikey pulled a scare prank on him," Leo explained.

Donnie groaned and rubbed his hand over his face. "Well, could you tone it down a notch? I'm trying to get some sleep."

Suddenly Leo's phone began to ring and he pulled it from out of his belt to answer it. "Hello?"

Yo, Leo! It's me!

"Mikey? Where are you?"

Look at your phone, bro!

Confused, Leo pulled the phone away from his ear and looked down at the screen, and to his surprise, Mikey was waving at him. "Mikey, what...are you FaceTiming me or something?"

Mikey shook his head. Nope! I'm in your phone, dude!

Leo scratched his head. "'In my phone'? What are you talking about?"

But before he could get an explanation, Raph suddenly snatched the phone out of his hand and gave Mikey a murderous glare. "Mikey, when I find you, you're turtle meat!"

The freckled Turtle had a smug look on his face. Oh, yeah? Well, guess what? You can't touch me, 'cause you're out there and I'm in here. He turned around and pressed his butt against the screen, shaking it at Raph. Oh, yeah! MC Hammer! Can't touch this! Can't touch this!

Had Donnie not have snatched the phone from Raph in time, the hotheaded Turtle would've snapped it right in half in a fit of boiling hot rage. "Mikey, start explaining. What do you mean you're inside the phone?"

Mikey turned around and faced the screen, a wide, excited grin on his face. Dudes, I dunno how it's possible, but I still have my sweet powers!

"Powers? Wait, you mean, those electrical powers that Bishop supposedly drained out of you?"

I know, right?! Isn't this awesome?! Now I can zap into any computer and phone!

"No, it's not awesome!" Donnie snapped. "Mikey, Bishop took those powers from you for a good reason! Remember what he told you a year ago? If those powers burn out, your body could be destroyed!"

The smile on Mikey's face slowly dropped as the realization kicked in. Oh, yeah. Guess I didn't really think this through.

"We'll call Bishop and have him come here immediately," Leo announced. "Mikey, come out of that phone."

Okay, Leo. Mikey closed his eyes and imagined himself zapping out of the phone, but nothing happened. He concentrated even harder, straining himself, but he was still trapped inside the phone. Uh-oh. Hey, guys? I think I'm stuck.

"What do you think, Bishop?" Leo asked the Utrom, who arrived in the lair in a matter of minutes after he received their call.

"Hmmm, it's just as I feared," Bishop observed the phone in which Michelangelo was trapped. "Even though I drained most of his powers with the electrical dampening cannon, some of it apparently remained inside of Michelangelo and grew over the past year. These new powers have given him the ability to travel through electrical appliances and control them, but now they are burning out, and we need to get Michelangelo back into the physical world now...or he will disappear forever."

Mikey gulped inside the phone. Forever...?

While Raph and Donnie were freaking out and urgently shouting questions at Bishop, Leo took a deep breath and willed himself not to break down. "Okay, Bishop, hand me the phone." The Utrom gave it back to him and he looked down at Mikey, who was starting to cry. "Mikey, it's Leo. I want you to calm down and listen to me very carefully. Can you do that, little brother?" Mikey sniffled and nodded. "Good. Now I want you to take a deep breath and concentrate. Just imagine me reaching out to you. You can do this, Mikey. I know you can."

But Leo, I tried that alr-!

"Mikey, you can do it," Leo softly said with a smile. "I believe in you."

Biting his lower lip, Mikey slowly nodded and closed his eyes. He took a deep breath and did as Leo instructed him, imagining his oldest brother reaching to him. He lifted his hand and reached out to the screen in front of him, his body emitting a soft blue glow...

Lightening zapped right out of the phone and Leo dropped it. Mikey's body slowly transformed back into its physical form, and once he was normal again, his older brothers surrounded him but were careful not to touch him, especially Raph, who learned his lesson from last time. Oh, he was definitely going to give Mikey a shell wedgie later, but for now, he was just so relieved that his little brother was going to be okay.

"Mikey, you did it!" Leo praised his little brother, to which Mikey beamed.

"All of you stand back," Bishop ordered as he aimed that same cannon at Mikey, and the other Turtles instantly back away. "This time I'll make sure that every bit of electricity is drained from his body."

"Awwww man," Mikey groaned, knowing full well what was going to happen next. "Hey, Donnie, could you get a towel so I can cover myself with it?"

ZAP!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Hope you liked it, BrightLotusMoon and eeveemlp!
