Author's note:

Donnie woken to hands of a kid's hand shaking his back his back.

"Come on D time for school bro." A familiar voice sprang up.

He risen up and fluttered his eyes.

"Be right there Mikey." He mumbled before yawning.

Late at night working on another scouter really made him sleepy.

"Alright bro. Be there soon other uncle Saki would put red ants on your room too." His nine-year-old brother told him.

"Doubt it. He'll proudly put rats in my room."

"Whatever D." his youngest brother said before he went out.

Donnie stood up from the chair he was sitting on and the desk he laid on. He stretched a bit before quickly getting ready for his day.

As soon as he went out and down to the hallway, fully ready, he heard his other younger brother, Rapheal yelling at Mikey. No doubt Raph found another one of Mikey's pranks. He soon went down. Finding breakfast waiting for him, went over to the dining room table and ate.

Moments later, he was greeted by a drenched Raph. His brother let out growled, while wearing a ticked off face.

He sighed. "What prank did Mikey do this time?"

"That idiot put a bucket of water balloons on the door."

"You know a dip in cold water could be beneficial to your health. I 've read studies on..." Donatello stop when Raph glared at him. "Of course, you could always get a could catch a cold." He went back to eating only this time with a more worried face, peering over at his second youngest sibling.

"Great now, I 'm going to make fun of." The teen in red said as he took a seat on the other side of the table.

Donnie was about to take another bite when he heard Mikey again, asking "Uh, why?"

He looked over to see the youngest brother the door, appearing baffled.

"The big kids will think taken a bath."

"That's not what he meant, Mikey. he meant something else."

"Well, what is it?"

"Nothing. come and you eat breakfast Wow that's something I've never thought I say."

"Agh, fine. But you guys better tell." He Mikey to him and Raph.

"Trust us Mikey, we will."

"Yeah," Raph spoke up. "when you get to middle school."

Now that they avoided having to explain middle school humor to Mikey for now, they finished the plates. If it was an eating contest, then Mikey would have likely won.

The brothers finished and went out. When they were a good distance away and Mikey was walking a distance away from them, Raph spoke up. "Man, glade to be away from those cameras."

"For now, until we have to go back at curfew."

"Yeah. Say, what's up with working on your inventions again. You up until one."

Donnie sighed. " I was hoping I'd find Leo."

"Your twin? Agh, when are you going to give it up Donnie? He's been missing eight years,"

"I know." Donnie sighed again. "I just wanted to find him, so mom could see him one last time."

"She's not going to die Donnie. The doctor said that she's going to make it."

"You know he was lying, right? Doctors often have a difficult decision to tell patients or their family everything?"

"Yeah, I just don't want all of your hard work to go in vain."

"I know."

"So, how's getting your girlfriend?"

"Agh, She's not a girlfriend, she's-"

"Donnie got a girlfriend." Mikey teased.

The duo looked up to see the youngest was now closer to them, wearing a devilish smirk on his face.

"She's not a girlfriend GUYS!" He said in annoyed tone. "She's just an acquaintance that happens to be a girl. And gotten a plan for her to be friends with me."

Donnie could feel his brothers knowing that he was telling half-truths and that he wanted to be romantic with her but didn't care. He was determined like his twin was with his training, to stop now.

The three siblings didn't say more after that, until they made to the elementary school.

"Oh boy," said Mikey as was about to run in the building but ceased and turn. "check it? I 'm going to show my teacher the P shake." The nine-year-old held up a clear water bottle with liquid in it that has the appearance pound water.

"Why did you name it that, Mikey?" Donnie asked, though the eldest had a feeling that the answer wasn't going to be the most welcomed.

"Because I mixed our two favorite ingredients Milke shake and Pizza."

At that moment, as he heard his middle brother in red making girls scream, Donnie felt his breakfast wanting to make a break for it, however he kept it in and brought it down again.

"I 'm going to use it for my science project."

"What?"

"Huh? I can you see getting a B." Raph spoke.

"Really?" the youngest questioned with a curious face like a six-year-old being told that they go to a trip amusement park. "Aw, thanks Raph. See'ya bros. I 'm to show off my awesome project."

Right after the youngest brother ran off and was out of sight, Donnie asked "You were lying about the grade."

"No. I think he'll get a B. A B for bad. Now come let's get out of her before he wants us to taste it."

Don still remembers the last time Mikey did that, he and Raph was bed riddle with stomachs for a day. He still sometime wonders how Mikey could be so good at cooking and horrible at making fusion cuisines. Despite the fear of finding out what goes on in little brother's brain.

The duo quickly became just Donnie when he and Raph gotten to gotten to the middle school.

As his brother in red head off, Donatello head to the high school.
