Life with Turtles Ch 12
Tickling. It was a skill a five and a half year old Michelangelo had recently acquired. He was bored one day and saw Donnie taking apart a remote control robot to make a remote control car.
"Hey D! Wanna play with me?"
"Sorry Mikey, I really want to get this done, maybe later ok?"
"Ok."
The young freckled turtle was sad that his brother couldn't play. So he was determined to make him smile.
What can I try? A prank.
The last prank he played involved glitter and Leo's swords so… maybe not.
I got it!
He snuck over back to his brother and placed both hands on his sides and applied pressure so Donatello couldn't move away.
Donatello, not familiar with this fighting move, looked up.
"no Mikey. I don't want to spare either"
"Oh, I'm not trying to fight"
"Then what are you?-"
The young genius was cut off when his younger brother dug his fingers into his sides and started wiggling them.
"M-mikey, stop! T-that haha! It-it tickles!"
Mikey continued to tickle his brother until he was in tears and dying of laughter.
"Ok ok! Stop!"
Catching his breath, Donatello sat up and smiled at the freckled turtle.
"that was fun!"
Michelangelo was delighted to see the older turtle smile. His brothers didn't really know it but Mikey loved to see his brother smile, he thought they all had nice smiles. He suddenly had a wonderful idea.
"Bye Donnie! I gotta go! I had a break though!"
"Uh, it's break through! And ok, bye!"
Mikey made his way into the dojo and saw his other brother.
He didn't want his older brother to see him so he walked to him slowly. He got closer until he dove down and grabbed him by his legs
"Gah Mikey! What are you doing!"
"Check this out Leo!"
He wiggled his fingers under Leo's chin and around his neck and, to his joy, Leo started giggling too.
"Mikey! No..! I-I can't breathe! Hahaha!
Mikey stopped after another minute. He was pleased to see his oldest brother smiling happily
Two down, one to go.
Mikey made his way to the room Raph and Leo shared.
"Raphie? Hey, Raphie? What are you doing?"
The red masked turtle looked up.
"I'm reading a comic book. Go away."
"But I wanna show you something! It's-"
"Boys! Dinner!"
Michelangelo dropped his hands to his sides at his father's call for food.
"sorry dork. Guess you won't get to show me"
Dropping the comic Raphael walked out of his room to the kitchen with Michelangelo in tow.
The five mutants sat down for dinner. Michelangelo sat between Donnie and Raph. As the five ate he wondered how he was going to surprise Raph and tickle him. Mid chew he felt a sharp pain in his mouth and whined
"Mmm!"
Donatello stopped eating and looked at Mikey
'"Mikey! What's wrong buddy?"
Michelangelo ran to the bathroom and spit out the algae and worms in his mouth.
"Oww.. What was that?"
He stood on his toes and looked in the mirror. He moved his tongue against the front of his bottom jaw. He winced when he pushed a certain tooth. To his surprise the tooth moved!
"Owie…"
Donatello knocked on the door
"Mikey! Are you ok?"
"My tooth!"
Michelangelo let his brother in and sat still as the genius peered into his mouth
"Which tooth?"
Mikey poked it with his finger.
"wow Mikey! You're tooth is loose!"
"What does that mean?"
As Donatello explained the "joys" of having a tooth removed The other three mutants appeared in the doorway.
"My son, what's the matter?"
"Mikey's got a loose tooth"
"Cool"
"I can't imagine what's it's like to have a big space in your mouth"
Donatello shot Raph a glare at that last comment.
Michelangelo tried to move the tooth again then winced.
"It hurts"
Donatello told his brother how to chew now with his loose tooth. The family finished dinner then went to sleep. Mikey climbed into bed and stared across the room at Donnie's bed. He was kind of glad Master Splinter decided they weren't exactly old enough to have their own rooms. So he and Donnie shared and Leo and Raph shared.
"Hey… Donnie?"
The lump on Donatello's bed shifted.
"Mmm?"
"What happens after I lose my tooth? Will there's always be a gap? Like your's?"
Yawning Donnie turned over and faced his brother.
"No Mikey, all my teeth are there. There's just a bigger gap between them than normal and no, your adult tooth will grow in it's place."
"oh cool, how long will that take?"
"A while, couple of weeks maybe."
"Cool"
"Go to sleep Mikey"
Michelangelo laid completely still for a while then soon drifted off to sleep.
The next morning after training was completed, and breakfast was eaten the four brothers sat in the living room to watch TV. Mikey left to get a glass of water then came back and saw Raph not really paying attention to anything.
Now's my chance
Mikey smiled and snuck up on Raphael and ticked him.
At first Raph yelped and tried to push Mikey off, when he didn't stop the tickle attack he shoved Mikey off him, Mikey let go and lost his balance and then tumbled off the cement steps and landed face first on the floor.
Donnie and Leo gasped.
"Raph! What did you do?!"
"Mikey! Are you ok?"
Michelangelo sat up and groaned. Putting a hand to his mouth he spit what he thought would be saliva in his hand. He looked down to see a deep red color. Blood. To stunned to scream. He just looked up at his brothers with a terrified expression on his face.
"Master Splinter!"
The three tots ran to get there father leaving Mikey alone in the living room with tears in his eyes and blood dripping from his sore mouth.
"Master Splinter help!"
The old master looked at his three startled sons.
"Calm down little ones, what is the matter?"
"It's Mikey!"
"He's bleeding!"
"Come quick!"
Splinter followed his three sons to the living room where Michelangelo was on the ground sobbing.
"Michelangelo? My son, stop your tears and tell me what's wrong"
Mikey tried to talk but he just kept crying until he began to hiccup.
Splinter sighed and picked up his youngest son and walked to the bathroom and shut the door.
A while later the door opened, the three walked in to see Mikey sitting near the sink with Splinter looking in his mouth
"Mikey! Are you ok?"
"Yeah! I'm fime!"
"Michelangelo you might want to take the tissue out of your mouth before you speak"
"What happened? Did I hurt Mikey?"
Splinter looked down at second oldest son. Then picked him up so he was eye level with his youngest.
"care to show your brother what he helped remove Michelangelo?"
Mikey held out a tissue to his brother. Raph looked at the tissue to see a tooth sitting in the middle of it.
"I… just knocked yur tooth out/"
"yeah! Thanks bro! It was bothering me"
Raph smiled and gave his brother a hug and said something to him.
"sorry Mikey"
"It's ok. And hey1 I learned a lesson from all this!"
"Oh? And what is it that you learned my son?"
"NEVER tickle Raph! Unless you want your tloose tooth knocked out"
The three turtles laughed at their baby brother's learned lesson.
