It was originally an one-shot but people kept asking me about a sequel so here it is. And sorry if I haven't been responding to the reviews but I had a hockey match directly after I poster the chapter, and directly after that a sleepover, which wasn't really a sleepover since we never slept and just talked to a random military guy from 21 (^^) until 7 in the morning. So I was practically wasted for the following day, lol.

"Hey Napoleon" Mikey grinned and watched as his new found friend sat down next to him on the branch of the giant tree. He could hear the different mutated frogs around him croaking but it felt nice to heart hem around him, he didn't like the silence very much.
"Hey Mikey, what's up?" Napoleon asked when he saw how his friend was acting. The last day had been great, he had finally found someone like him and he really liked Mikey. They had had so much fun together, Mikey had showed him new ninja tricks and they had fun with each other. Just goofing off slightly.
"Everything" Mikey sighed and leaned back, looking up to the tree, watching as all the frogs were running around. "I don't know really, I guess I just miss New York" He admitted and watched towards his right, staring towards Napoleon.
"What is… New York?" The mutant frog asked after a while. Mikey gasped and said straight up.
"You never heard of New York before?" Mikey grinned and sat cross-legged on the tree. "It is the city I came from, me and my brothers had lived there with our father for 15 years. We fought the Kraang, and the purple dragons and other mutants. And there was this one man, the Shredder, who was our father's arch enemy and he had this foot legion army and we totally kicked his butt every time" Mikey exclaimed.
"So in this New York place, you guys beat whole legions of feet soldiers?" Napoleon asked, not really understanding everything that Mikey had said. Mikey chuckled slightly.
"Foot soldiers" Mikey corrected him and jumped up. "Raph, that's my brother, Raphael, he's all 'rawr' with his sai and my other brother Donnie hacks the bad guy's computers, he's smart like that. And Leo… he's our fearless leader." He said as his face flushed slightly, it hurt to talk about them.
"Dude, your brothers sound awesome" Napoleon pointed out. Mikey sighed and sat down.
"They are, they love me. At least they did before I yelled at them" Mikey said and looked down ashamed. Napoleon wanted to open his mouth to say something to his new friend when the horn was being blown, a sign for all frogs to meet Attila, the leader of the frogs. And even if Mikey was allowed to stay, he still wasn't a frog.
"I have to go Michelangelo" Napoleon said as he stood up, hesitating slightly. Mikey nodded and raised his fist, forcing a grin on his face. Napoleon seemed to buy it and smiled too, knocking his fist against Mikey's fist before taking off.
Mikey sighed and drew his legs up to his plastron, resting his head on top of his knees. The air was cold around him but he didn't care. Blindly he looked down towards the ground. It had all been so weird in the last 24 hours.
Just a day ago he was still watching television, and the next moment he was screaming towards his brothers. He closed his eyes slightly. He had no idea where it came from, he loved his brothers, he could never hate them. And still he said it. He said he hated them.
They loved him, he knew they did but right know he was sure they didn't. He screamed at them, said he hated them. He had insulted Leo badly. About his leg. Even when he knew how much Leo was affected by it. He knew his oldest brother wanted nothing more than to get better. Heal and get back to New York as soon as possible.
Take back the city again and cure everyone who was turned into a Kraang-like creature. Get Karai back and avenge the death of their father. He didn't know what he was thinking back then, he saw his father flushing away in the drain pipe, the blood dripping down his shoulder and blending in with his fur.
There was no way he would've survived that. And even then it hurt so much that Leo had said it. It felt like a knife had been jabbed in his heart. He didn't want his father to be dead, he couldn't live without him, nobody could. And the family was falling apart without him.
He could still recall the hurt look on Raph's face, after he made that remark about hitting him. Of course he hit him before, every time he would say something stupid or messed up Raph would hit him. But it wasn't right to yell at him like that.
And Donnie, he had tried so hard to talk to Mikey, trying to get him to understand, that they all loved him. And the only thing Mikey had done was yelling at him. Blowing him off and pointing out things he had done in the past. And the thing Mikey hated the most was the fact they were all true. Everything he had said was true.
He still remembered the feeling of being tossed around in the Kraang basis. Leo had paired him up with Donnie and his purple-banded turtle had just rejected him, pleading Leo to pair him up with someone else. And Raph did exactly the same, even Leo didn't want him. And of course nobody apologized for it.
They just shrugged it off like it was nothing, like nothing had happened, and of course he just brushed it off like always. He just laughed, pretending like nothing had happened, but it hurt. It hurt hearing his brothers thought about him that way.
But in a way he was used to it. They had always treated him like that, just brushing him off, or ignoring him. They never acknowledged him, and every time he said something smart they were surprised. Even when he dismantled the bomb, by yelling the right color, Donnie acted surprised that he was right about something for once.
Of course it was a mere guess, but of course Donnie had to act surprised like that. But he wasn't surprised by Donnie's reaction, they always acted like that.
Even when he saved his brothers from the giant mutant wasp they didn't thank him, instead Leo just chased him for destroying his comic book, they never thanked him for saving their shells. And the mom-thing was just the same thing. He told them there was something off, that something wasn't right. And of course nobody listened.
And it resulted in him being swallowed and his body being used to trick Donnie. His brothers had complained about being sick, but they never asked about him, even when they knew he was the first one to be swallowed, and Donnie knew that the mom-thing had used his body to transform.
And deep down he knew his brothers cared about him. Back in New York, when his father had been flushed, when he calmed down Raph. His red-banded turtle barely cried, and right then he did cry, right in his hold.
Or that time he was kidnapped by Bradford, his former 'friend', he still remembered how Raph had talked to him, trying to cheer him up. Or the numerous times Leo had saved his shell, or Donnie had calmed him down after a nightmare. He knew they cared, the problem was they never showed it. And he was sick of that.
He never wanted to run away, he loved his brothers, but he couldn't live in a place he wasn't appreciated. But he knew for sure, if he could turn back the time he would never say things like that again. He knew for sure he had hurt Leo badly with his comment, that he had shattered his bond with Donnie and he had blown Raph off by telling him to hit him.
He was just grateful he didn't pick on Casey and April, but he knew they must be hating him. He had insulted his brothers, and at the same time their friends. Casey's best friends, April's 'love'.
Mikey was snapped out of his thoughts when a voice yelled from up the tree. 'Let go of me creep!' Mikey's eyes widened and he jumped up. 'Silence human' he could hear Attila say.
"That sounded like… April" He mumbled to himself and jumped up to the platform. Four frogs were dragging his friends to some hand-made cages. Casey and April were thrown in and they were locked somehow.
"Help" April exclaimed as their cages were raised high above the air. Mikey ran towards them, pushing some frogs away who were standing around the cages, watching in amazement.
"Hey! What is this? What are you doing to my friends?" Mikey exclaimed and looked towards the frogs who captured April and Casey.
"Mikey what are you doing here?!" April screamed from up and looked towards the freckled turtle. Mikey could feel his color being drained as he saw the stares of Casey and April. He was always happy to see them, but right now he felt nervous watching their accused stares.
TMNT
This is my worst ending yet, but otherwise it would become too long….
Also, I wasn't satisfied with the fact that Casey and April never pointed out why Mikey was there, with the frogs and all, so I included it ^^
