Chapter 2
Grow Up!

"Have you ever felt the tears on your face when one of the people you know forget the love and gentleness they give you and instead, punishes you with cruelty and hatred?"

After the movie, the turtles were off to bed for tomorrow's training. Only Donatello stayed up all night to finish today (and possibly tomorrow's) inventions. Even though Leonardo threw out the fourth bag of coffee this week, no one knew that he hid all his coffee bags under the floor. Meanwhile, Leonardo, Raphael and Michelangelo headed off to bed to get a good night rest.

Allowing himself to drop on the bed, Michelangelo took out the diary under his pillow, grabbed a pen and wrote today's entry.

Dear diary,

Today, I had a big nightmare when I being replaced by an adorable kitty who is actually a vicious one. It was scary, dude! First, I found my brothers calling the kitten the new youngest sibling. Then after that, I felt like someone threw me in the trash bin and somehow, the kitty locked me in. After that, two, giant paws grabbed both of my arms and almost ate me.

I woke up, really terrified! At least my brothers were there, comforting me. They promised that if it comes true, they'll be careful. We even had movie night to cheer me up. At first, they really seem convinced that I was better. But that was a lie. The truth was I have a feeling that this dream is going to come true...

I don't know what to do anymore. Diary, do you think that won't happen. I hope so.

Mikey.

As soon as Michelangelo placed his diary under his pillow, he wrapped himself with a warm blanket and after fifteen minutes, he drifted of to sleep.

The clocks were heard in every corner, signalling the time to almost twelve.

Michelangelo took a step forward and looked at a longest hand.

56.

57.

58.

59.

The alarms of an old grandfather's clock were heard in every corner, causing Michelangelo to cover his ears and run.

Then, he found himself in the lair.

"Where am I?"He mumbled to himself.

"Look Raph! Look what I drew!"a voice said. Michelangelo gasped.

The kitty with yellow fur, none older than 5, skipped his way to his 'big brother'.

Raphael bent down and looked at the drawing. It was a picture of a mutant rat, three turtles and the kitten with yellow fur.

"Good work."Raphael said, ruffling the kitten's head. The kitten giggled in response.

"Hey guys! I finally finished twenty invention in just a day. I tested them and they're perfect!"Donatello exclaimed, getting out of the lab.

"Nice work, Donnie! Leo, you finished training?"Raphael asked.

"Yeah!"Leonardo exclaimed.

Life was sure good without Michelangelo.

Michelangelo let a tear escape from his eye and land on the floor from his chin. Soon, he found blood on his limbs. Soon, pieces of him vanished away. What's only left were the orange mask, nunchuks and belt.

Michelangelo woke up with a short scream, panting and sweating from the horrible nightmare. He checked on his limbs for any sign of blood.

No blood.

Michelangelo sigh in relief.

A knock was heard.

"Come in."Michelangelo said.

Donatello opened the door and saw his little brother.

"Everything okay, Mikey?"Donatello asked.

Michelangelo smiled.

"I'm fine, Donnie."he responded.

Then, Donatello closed the door.

Michelangelo sigh in relief. He looked at his alarm clock:

8:30

Oh shoot, I'm late for practice! He thought. He got out of bed, ate his breakfast and proceeded to the dojo.

Once training was over, Michelangelo was eager to pull the greatest prank he ever did.

First, he got out his journal and wrote the entry for today:

Dear diary,

It's finally time! Operation: Pink Turtle will succeed! Wish me luck!

Mikey.

After that, he brought out three cans of pink paint, a net, a rope and a pair of scissors.

It was finally time.

First, he put three cans of paint (with paper covers) inside the net. Next, he tied it using a rope and pulled it to the ceiling. Then, he tied the end of the rope on a hook that was hooked on the table. Lastly, he drew a big X on the floor above the net. Carefully, he drew the map and placed it on Donnie's table lab.

Time to put it to the test...

"So, this is where the treasure is?"Donatello asked, pointing to the big X.

"Definitely. Now, we better get some-"

But before Leonardo could finish his sentence, Michelangelo cut the rope and the three cans of pink paint landed on the three turtles, covering them in pink paint. Michelangelo laughed out so loud.

"MIKEY!"All the the three brothers exclaimed.

"What? It's funny!"Michelangelo exclaimed.

Raphael sneered at him.

"Michelangelo, when the hell will you stop these childish pranks?!"Leonardo growled. Now, Michelangelo's spine shivered.

"Leo..."

"We get so sick of these stupid, childish pranks that we might be fed up with you one day!"Raphael exclaimed.

"Raph..."

"Little s***, I wish you would just grow up!"Donatello exclaimed.

"Now, clean this place up!"Leonardo exclaimed before leaving with the other turtles. Michelangelo felt the tears on his face, landing on the floor. He got a wet rag and began cleaning the place that had pink paint on it.

Dear diary,

It was a disaster! All my brothers yelled at me to grow up! I felt the tears on my face. I guess their words stung after all.

When will the pain end?

Mikey.

No one noticed that one tear formed into a broken heart.

TBC...

I'm sorry… I hurt you.

I'm sorry… for your sins.

I'm sorry… you're trapped.

I'm sorry… for this world.

Please… forgive me.

REPLACED

Chapter 3: Not Normal

Can you believe?

I'm so evil! Hahaha...oh, wait...(clears throat)...that's it, Chapter 2. The tear with the broken heart is something I got when I watched a vid I saw on YouTube. It's formed of My Little Pony, TMNT, Penguins of Madagascar and The Lion King scenes. The song is called "Watch me bleed"...I kind of forgot who sang it.

So, what do you think?

To Ariana Gorman- Yep, it will have a happy ending.
