An orange bandana masked, mutant turtle gingerly walked into one of his older brother's labs. He gently placed the black XBox One controller with orange flames on one of the various benches littered with various tools.
"What are you doing, Mikey?"
At the voice of his purple clad brother, Mikey tensed. Chuckling nervously, he slowly turned to face him.
"Uh… nothing," he answered, his light blue eyes shining with innocence, "What are you doing, Don?"
Donnie crossed his arms, "This is my lab, Mikey! What do you think I'm in here for?"
An awkward silence filled the room for a few agonizingly long moments before Mikey quickly asked, "Can you fix my controller, please?"
Donnie sighed, "What did you do to it this time?"
"I… um… uh," he stammered uneasily, "Oh, you hear that?! I think Amber's calling me! Gotta go!"
Before Donatello could react, Mikey was already out the door, a trail of flames following after him. Donnie rose a brow in skepticism before shrugging off the moment. He went over to Mikey's controller when an odd scent wafted into his nostrils. He didn't think anything of it, as he thought it may have been one of his experiments having some sort of reaction. He put his fingers on the controller, but quickly pulled it back. He shook his hand wildly to get rid of the liquid from his hand.
Donnie furrowed his brow, "What in the name of Kraang?!"
He grabbed it again. Being oddly curious, Donnie brought the controller to his nose.

"What's for breakfast, Mikey," the second eldest brother asked as he walked into the kitchen area, his bandana being red.
"Yeah! I'm starving," the leader of their ninja team and oldest brother exclaimed, being clad in blue.
A black mutant goat flicked open two boxes of pizza - one pepperoni, the other plain (but delicious!) cheese. She put her hands on her hips, smiling in satisfaction.
"Here's ya brekkie, ya poor starved boys," she chuckled in her iconic Australian accent.
The two eldest went to grab a slice from the pepperoni, when the doe slapped their hands. Mikey and two other humans burst out laughing as they pulled back their arms, cradling their hands.
"What was that for?!"
"You need to wait like everyone else, Raphie, till D gets 'ere," she replied sternly.
Her chocolate brown eyes looked around, "Speaking of… where is-?"
"MIKEY!!!"
Everyone's heads whipped towards Donnie's lab where his enraged voice and a loud crash erupted like lava from a volcano. Mikey's blue eyes filled with fear. Donnie stomped out of his lab, his eyes ablaze. Mikey gulped.
Raph, the red masked brother, folded his arms, "What'd ya do this time, Mikey?"
"HE PEED ON HIS XBOX CONTROLLER!"
"You WHAT?!"
At the surprised as absolutely disgusted looks on their faces Amber lost it. Using Mikey as support, her hocks went weak with hysteric laughter.
"How on Earth do you pee on a controller," Casey, the human boy, questioned.
"Ice cream Kitty and I were playing this racing game, then I had to go! Ice cream Kitty cheats, so I had to take it with me," Mikey explained quickly.
Leo scrunched his face up in disgust, "Dude!"
"It was an accident!"
Donnie looked over at Amber, who was on the brink of hyperventilation, "WHY ARE YOU STILL LAUGHING?!"
"It's just… wh-... I bet you picked it up with your bare hands… and now… YOU HAVE PEE GERMS… ALL ON YOUR HANDS," she said through loud laughs and wheezes.
"HOW IS THAT FUNNY?!"
"Sh," Leo began, putting a finger to his lips, "You'll break Sensei from his meditation!"
After a few deep breaths, Amber sat at the table. She stared at a spot on the table, letting out small chuckles every now and then.
"What is all this commotion?!"
Everyone looked up to see Sensei Splinter, a mutant rat clothed in a Japanese robe, stood in the kitchen doorway.
"Sensei, Mikey peed on his controller," Donnie whined.
Splinter's face went blank, causing Amber to absolutely crack up with laughter once again. Everyone looked at her oddly as she let her single-horned head slam onto the table.
"Do you care to explain this, Michelangelo," Splinter asked, demanding and answer.
"It was an accident, Sensei, because," Mikey paused for dramatic effect, causing Raph to roll his emerald green eyes, "YOU ALL GOT PRANKED!"
Everyone froze in shock. They thought Amber couldn't laugh any harder, but she managed to laugh twice as much, Mikey joining in.
"Did you get it on video," Mikey asked Amber through laughs.
"Every… second!"
The others quirked their brows in confusion.
"Wait… so…"
"This is all… a prank," Donnie questioned, finishing April's sentence.
Mikey and Amber just nodded, still laughing.
"How did you-?"
Amber cut Raph off by pointing at the cupboard, having her name written on it in black permanent marker. Casey cautiously opened the door with the others standing behind him. In the cupboard on its shelves sat fake blood, fake urine, fake organs and fake bones - all of which looked very real.Donnie reached in and grabbed out a very large book. He flicked through its pages, eyes widening as he read various recipes on how to make the various items the shelves contained. Mikey and Amber calmed stood amoung the group.
"This is… WHY WOULD YOU," Donnie shouted.
Mikey and Amber looked at each other, then winked at the group.
"Nah, D," they began in unison, "The real question is: Why wouldn't we?"
The rest - April, Casey, Raph, Leo, Donnie, and even Splinter - either sighed, facepalmed, rolled their eyes or did all three. Mikey and Amber high-fived each other.
"You owe me a new controller, Amber," Mikey stated.
Amber winked as she put her arm around him, making Mikey blush, "Yup! But first, let's eat before we all starve to death!"
