Underground, the genius of the Hamato clan and computer wizard, Donatello was reading.

He wasn't sure how to interact with Simone, who he had somehow gotten paired with during the hang time, who seemed completely different than her elder sister. In an attempt to discover her interests, he guided her to his library.

He had no idea is this would work.

What he considered a small collection of books, with many different genres, had absolutely fascinated her. After picking out a novel, with his permission of course, she sat down at the kitchen table due to the fact that the couch was occupied with the other two sets of turtles. They were currently occupied with a video game tournament. Deciding to follow, he had taken the opposite end of the table.

Though growls and groans of the losers came from the living room, he was glad for the overall silence as he became involved with the story at hand.

The turning of pages stopped, he looked up to meet her green eyes. They were slightly lighter than Raph's, so beautiful. Brown hair curled around her face, he then realized he was staring. Quickly looking away before she noticed, he then spoke.

"Any good?" Asking of the book in her hand, she smiled a shy smile before replying.

"It is very good, thank you" Her voice was soft and yet to him like a soothing piece that could be compared to a masterpiece melody played on the piano.

"Anytime" He replied, she blushed slightly. Obviously she wasn't used to being around males, men in general. Looking back down to his book, he wanted to hear her voice again. His gaze was making her nervous, but maybe he could ask her another question. There was still time, she hadn't starting reading again.

"COME ON!" Raph's roar came from the other room, he smirked

"Who do you think won?" He chuckled, he heard her slightly giggle

"HAHAHAHAH YOU LOSE!" Alice's high pitched yell answered

"Definitely the younger two" Simone replied, their eyes met as she flashed him a small smile

He returned the smile, before looking back down. His focus was not on the book, but instead on the turtle across from him.

Tori then fumed into the kitchen area, with her equally angry partner on her tail. Sounds of celebration sounded from the room they had left, telling the victor.

"What happened?" He asked in joking manner, setting the book down

"We lost" The redhead growled

"Oh really, because for a moment there I thought you had won" Don looked and snickered at the comment delivered seamlessly by the grey bandanna

"Ha ha, very funny" Raph retorted

"On another subject, have you seen Leo?" The purple bandanna asked, all eyes going to him

"I haven't" The amber eyed female answered

"Not me" His brother commented

"Neither…" Mikey entered

"…have we" Alice finished, following her male ego

"That is creepy" Tori mumbled

Donatello raised an eye ridge, Leo was back yet? Not that he was worried, but their leader never stayed out too late without reason. Looking to the clock, he discovered it was already eleven. Before he could open his mouth, the other reader seemed to read his mind.

"Time for bed" He looked to see her standing, her sisters groaned simultaneously

"Yes Jasmine junior" The eldest female, at the moment, grumbled

Raphael seemed to be surprised at the comment, considering he had called Leo something very similar many times before…

"So what are the sleeping arrangements?" Don asked, assisting her in the plan for bedtime

"I'm in Mikey's room!" Alice latched on to the orange bandanna

"HELL NO!" Both of the reds roared in response, he rolled his eyes as they battled it out

Where was Leo? He mused; perhaps he had found something to do.


"So, let me get this straight…"

The two eldest turtles now occupied the couch, where they had started in the sitting position. Now she was snuggled deep into his chest, while filling him in with the most important details. In avoidance to poking the other, two sets of swords were set on the glass table. Joining the blades were shell cells and Jasmine's many pieces of jewelry, as well as their bandannas. Having found them unneeded for the moment, the yellow and blue material laid in a pile.

Her blue eyes locked with his, as he continued to speak.

"…the Shredder wants you to cut all bonds with us, in essence become our enemies, and become his right hand man to help him take over the world. He knows you are reliable, because you did the same thing five years ago?" Leo looked warily at her, he knew something was bothering her…but he had never expected something like this

"Yes" The word was a sigh at best; she really hadn't wanted to tell him

"And you were also seriously considering doing this to protect them?" She glared momentarily at him for assuming that the situation was only concerning the girls, before responding

"To protect you all, he knows I care about my brothers, sisters, and love…" The black haired turtle gave him a small kiss "…he knows my weakness, if I run then he will just hunt you down"

"You have to tell them" Leo's statement made her turn to stare at him with a look that said…

"Why?" She asked

"Because they need to know, they need to be prepared for an attack…" His sentence was cut off by her jerking to stand over him. Her stance indicated that she was going to make a decision soon and after that there was nothing that could or would stop her.

"How do you know I won't take the…" This time it was him who cut off her, as he rose to meet her lips in a meaningful embrace. She resisted, trying to get back to the serious conversation, but her attempt failed before returning the kiss.

After a moment, he moved back to meet gazes with whom he considered an angel.

"Because I won't let you, I won't lose you again"

He whispered these words, but at the same time declaring that no matter what happened, he wasn't going to let go.

Jasmine nodded, she understood.

"I'll tell them tomorrow" He raised an eye ridge

"Why not toni…" He was again cut off, but he didn't care that he had been interrupted as another fiery hot kiss was sweetly imposed upon him. Taking a moment for breath, she answered, their eyes still connected as their souls were.

"I rather not go back tonight" She said, before wrapping herself closer to him

Again their lips met, he saw the look on her face and knew exactly what she was thinking. An unspoken answer between them answered his question if she was ready. His hands ran smoothly down her curves, she moved even closer in response as their bodies became meshed into one and a shiver ran down his spine... Slowly between embraces, they came to the bedroom door. Moving into the room where it all began, the door closed leaving their…actions hidden from view.

Outside the moon shone bright, like that night so long ago.


Time Lapse: Next Morning [AN: yeah…more action and story in the chapter…plus it wouldn't be long enough if I didn't do this]


"KENJI!"

The roared name of his brother bounced off the alley walls, falling deaf upon the ears of the ones hitting his twin. Punch after punch he watch go undefended, he fought against the person holding him. It was no use, his vision was blurring from the pain. Having taken a hard blow to the head, he tried to ignore the ache.

He was needed, tears misted his cheeks. His continued pleas for his brother's release had been answered by wicked smiles who wanted to see him beg. He was the oldest, he was doing nothing, he was helpless.

Finally the attackers paused; he was given a glance at the one he was supposed to be protecting. A tear ran down his cheek, blood streamed from numerous places on his brother head. A large cut on his head was messily soaking into the dark hair near it. The clothes covering the small body were ripped, the skin underneath bruising into dark colors.

Two eyes met his, a bloodied hand reached for him.

"Sora"

The word was no louder than a choked whisper; his heart broke into a thousand shards of glass. He was being called for, he was needed.

"Shut up!" One of the attacker reared back to deliver a rough kick to his brother's innocent body, a moan coming from the small boy's mouth.

"No!" He yelled, trying desperately to go and cradle the broken body

A punch hit his jaw, throwing him down. Hauled to his feet, he looked into the eyes of the merciless males. Sneaking a look towards the fallen, another tear escaped. His baby brother, he wasn't moving.

He had failed, no matter what happened; the thought would never be forgotten. Another punch hit him, he didn't feel the pain. Numbness, he already felt dead at the sight of his unmoving sibling.

Then an angry voice broke through the darkness surrounding him.

"What are you doing?"

His vision failed him, his eyes closed, the voice seemed familiar…His attackers' answers failed to reach his ears, he was dropped. The vibrations of frantic footsteps ran away, a single set coming towards him.

"Sora? Can you hear me?"

The voice spoke again, he attempted to open his eyes. Too much pain, they remained closed. He was raised up, a pair of arms supporting him. A groan escaped him, the person reacted.

"What hurts?" The unknown demanded, he thought of what to say

Then he spoke the one this on his mind.

"Kenji…" The slurred word was low, he wondered if the person had even heard him

"He's going to be okay, can you walk?" He felt filled with new strength, his brother was alive. He nodded his eyes, before deciding to try and open his eyes once more.

He had to see it for himself, finally his eyelids worked with him. The blurriness cleared for a moment, a figure was carrying his brother. Two dark eyes locked with him, he smiled before the light became too much.

There was no numbness, only pain.

Darkness swallowed him, his knees gave out. The voice asked what was wrong, no words reached him.

His brother was alive and safe…

and that's all that mattered.

He sat on the roof, looking up into his namesake. Sitting there, he watched the sun rise higher and higher, knowing it was time to get up. Stretching his somewhat tired muscles, he descended into the tower, leaving the sky behind.

Walking down the halls, he was given looks of curiosity. The foot army knew that his elder was missing, they had not seen him. What they didn't know was if the group was only three, if a new leader was needed. Ignoring the unspoken questions, he came into the room he dreaded.

Asleep in a plastic chair was Moto, he grinned. Deciding against waking him up, he walked over to the bed. A wave of guilt came upon him, nothing had changed. Gently squeezing his elder's hand, a tear ran down his cheek.

"I'm so sorry" He whispered

Saturo had protected the three of them, and yet he was the one lying in the bed. They…he had done nothing in return.

Grasping the limp hand, he looked to the closed eyes.

Wishing with all his heart that they would open and he could gaze into the dark orbs that he remembered from so long ago.


He exchanged a look with his brother, who offered an encouraging smile. Finally the door opened to reveal the nurse, who nodded. Trying not to rush, he walked into the room. His parents had been informed, they were on their way.

The two beds were side by side, both boys covered in white bandages. Looking over to the younger of the two, he felt a pang of guilt. No matter what he felt, he should have never of let this happened. Moto began to walk from the room, no doubt to meet their parents and direct them from the room.

"Be careful" He said, receiving an eye roll in return

Knowing his brother had gotten the message, he walked to the elder's bed. He slipped his hand to hold Sora's.

"I'm so sorry" He whispered

He expected no response, but he felt the hand squeeze his.

"It's my fault, not yours" The formally unconscious boy spoke

But it was his fault; he had shunned the two instead of accepting them. He opened his mouth to speak again, but the hand had gone limp once more. He was gone for now, his parents rushed past him.

He stepped back out of the room; he knew what he was going to do.

No matter what…

he had three to protect.

The pain receded; he became alert of another's touch.

"I'm so sorry"

The voice, it was Sora's. Why was he sorry?

A squeeze came from his hand; in response he did the same.

"Saturo?" His brother's voice spoke, trembling

The fire was coming back; he had to get a message to them. Gathering his voice, he chose quickly.

"It's my fault, not yours" A gasp was heard in response, another person was in the room

"Brother?" Another voice, another little brother

He tried to speak again, he was being burned.

Then darkness, only darkness.


Standing in the sewers, another kiss graced his lips. They had decided as one to not tell the others, to try and prevent chaos. One thing he knew for sure, she was his.

"I love you" He whispered

"I love you too" With the reply he, against his wishes, walked towards the lair

Only one thing was on his mind as he walked into the lair, her.

"Hey fearless, where ya been?"

Snapping out of his illusion, he looked to see a curios set of turtle siblings looking at him. Trying to think of a good excuse, his mind wandered back to the female had just left.

"Um…"


Coming into the lair, from her "trip", Jasmine looked to see her mate fending off questions from the young turtles.

"Just tell us!" Mikey pressed, as she walked unnoticed towards them

"Mikey, I…" He was clearly struggling, she decided to help. It was better this way anyway, get the initial shock over with anyway.

"If you must know…" All eyes were on her as she gave a flaming hot kiss to her new partner before turning to them "…he was with me"

Six green jaws dropped, almost seven if you include Leo's to her act.

Then, exactly what they wanted to avoid, chaos occurred in the form of six reactions.

First was Alexandra, whose eyes rolled to the back of her head and fell unconscious on the floor. Despite the two eldest, no other turtles noticed.

Then was Mikey, whose eyes grew wide before taking off running around the lair, screaming at the top of his lungs.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Third was Simone, who twitched like she was having a seizure all while mumbling random facts.

"The sun rises in the east, sets in the west….cats sleep between 16 to 18 hours a day…it took six years for Leo Tolstoy to write "War & Peace"…."

In reaction to the news, the purple bandanna did something that he, not to mention the others, thought he would ever do. Walking slowly over to the nearest wall, he reared back to forcefully and on purpose, slammed his head into it.

This slightly disturbed the new pair, the others two distracted to notice.

BAM!

Again he hit the wall, all while the others were in the background.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

"Elephants are the only mammals that can't jump….the international telephone dialing code for Antarctica is 672...World Tourist day is observed on September 27…."

Still nothing had been heard from the reds, but it was assumed they would react soon.

"Don?" Jasmine took a step in concern

He didn't answer, leading the two sane ones wondering what was going on?

Finally he spoke.

"Must…"

BAM!

"Get…"

BAM!

"Image…"

BAM!"

"OUT OF HEAD!"

BAM! BAM!

"Wow" Leo whistled

Turning back to the two directly younger siblings, they waited for the hotheads' thoughts. In the background, the horrified siblings continued.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!"

"The average person makes about 1,140 telephone calls each year…stressed is Desserts spelled backwards…if you had enough water to fill one million goldfish bowls, you could fill an entire stadium…"

"IT BURNS!"

"Right about…" Jasmine counted down

"WHAT THE HELL!"

"…now"

Both the reds had reacted in strangely similar ways, which was very interesting. Raph looked shocked, with a small smile on his face. Tori on the hand, looked torn between horror and anger. After the initial outburst, the reds said nothing else…only looking back and forth between the yellow and blue bandanna.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!"

"A car that shifts manually gets 2 miles more per gallon of gas than a car with automatic shift…cats can hear ultrasound…dueling is legal in Paraguay as long as both parties are registered blood donors…"

"THE IMAGE! KILL ME NOW!"

Looking back and forth…back and forth….back and forth.

"What have I done?" Jasmine asked, looking at the chaos before her

And Leo just smiled.


Reviews? Please!

Wow….just wow

Anyway…

Will Alice ever wake up?

Will Mikey ever stop screaming?

Will Simone's brain become normal?

Will Donatello stop beating his head against the wall?

Will the reds start speaking?
