A) (This is after Leo leaves to find Raph.)

Mikey Pov

Standing there in the silence that claimed the lair both the younger brothers watched the door. It was only a few minutes that Leo had run off and ordered them to stay put in case Raph returned.

"So…" Mikey yawned with a stretched, heading for the stairs; he had to shake these feelings that were dwelling within and prevent Donnie from plummeting any deeper in despair. "Why don't you get the popcorn this will take them a while."

Biting his lip, Donnie flashed a look at Mikey, who in turn was too calm and collective with this predicament that they had a hand in, "Popcorn? Are you kidding me Mikey?"

With a shrug Mikey beamed over his shoulder, pushing his own anxiety to the side, it was best not to dwell on things until the dust settled and this dreadful feeling he had been enduring was making him feel down then he normally was.

"Just get the popcorn Donnie-boy, I will be in the living room in a sec; I need to grab something," Mikey ran up the stairs knowing Donnie would do what he asked.

Coming back as he figured there was fresh popcorn in a bowl on the coffee table and Donnie was sitting there tapping his finger on his leg showing how tense he was.

If the turtle became anymore, he might explode, and Mikey knew this wasn't good for either of them.

Grabbing the controller and turning on the televisions Mikey pressed play, watching Donnie's expression closely.

"Dude, don't worry this will all work out," Mikey assured him, seeing the title of the movie showing. It was Star Wars, the first one that Donnie loved for it was a classic and the purple clad turtle always enjoyed how they did the movie effects so well back then.

Sighing Donnie held his side, contemplating, "Mikey what if we made things worse… I… did you see Raph? His eyes Mikey, were so hollow, we might have broken our brother and… and…"

"And we did all we can do! Leo wasn't listening to anyone even father! He was so hell bent on training us to take on some invisible enemy that doesn't exist and stop being our brother!" Mikey spoke up making Donnie look at him oddly; this was the same demeanor Mikey displayed when he presented the issue to him and their father. This side of Mikey neither of them knew existed and was surprised when they experience first-hand how responsible Mikey can be and clever he can be too.

Master Splinter was most impressed, wondering why Mikey never showed this part of himself since it opened up so many possibilities for the young turtle. Even so, Mikey only shrugged stating he like being how he is now, and he couldn't' do this indefinitely, it would kill the part of him he loves.

Continuing Mikey didn't eased up just yet, "Then there is Raph, it's obvious he notices Leo's actions and in turn figures the way in dealing it is resulting to his anger. This only fueled Leo's issue in turn fueled Raph. A never-ending spiral that both were plunging into that will only end in disaster! Sadly, those are just the simple issues not including there is more going on between them that is just too much to go through…I know your scared Donnie and so am I, but we both seen what the outcome would be and… and you have met that other universe versions of us, Donnie."

Gulping Donnie took the pillow beside him holding it tightly cringing on the universe that the other version of him left his family and everything fell to ruins. Ever since he told Mikey, the kid brother had been keeping an eye to make sure it still didn't happen in any other ways.

This was something Donnie never knew Mikey has been up to since that day and was also the reason the green book was created in the first place.

Before the book had scribbles and notes, but after finding out what could happen to his family, Mikey started making it his bible, not wishing such events to fall upon his family and to take the burden off of Donnie's shoulders.

"Mikey, I understand how you feel about that, but their Donnie left and then those events…"

"Could still happen and our family situation was building to the same conclusion! Look Donnie, think it through. If both Leo and Raph continue the path, they were driving down, do you believe it would end pretty? No! I can see Raph losing all respect in Leo to the point he wouldn't bash an eyelash and attack Leo. Then in return Leo being so distant will take it too personally and forget Raph is his brother! His own flesh and blood! They would either destroy each other or kill themselves in the process. We all seen the signs, and it has been getting worse by the minute! I know what we did was just as bad, but we needed to change the playing field and give them new elements to redirect the course they were on!"

Slumping in the couch Donnie sighed, nodding slowly, "I know… still doesn't change the fact I feel horrible…"

"Then eat a gummy worm, yum yum!" Mikey demeanor suddenly changed to his cheerful self, taking Donnie off guard as he screamed and jumped away from Mikey.

"EWW no!" Donnie kicked Mikey's hand away that was targeting his mouth.

"Oh, what's wrong Donnie?" Mikey beamed wiggling the gummy worm in the air.

Growling and holding Mikey back, Donnie snapped his beak at the younger pestering brother, "What's wrong is how you can suddenly be all cheerful, and you know I hate gummy worms!"

Shrugging Mikey chuckled, "It's me, are you surprise?"

Leaning forward Mikey got closer to Donnie with the candy, "Come on Donnie open up wide this little birdie has a treat for you!"

"NO! No no!" Donnie struggled, feeling he was at a disadvantage on the way he was laying on the couch and how Mikey was practically on top of him.

"Why not Donnie? I don't get it. You can't eat gummy worms, yet you have no problem tearing off the heads on gummy bears?" Mikey tilted his head in curiosity he always wondered why that was.

Biting his lip, Donnie suddenly figured out a way to get out of this, "I will tell you if you stop trying to feed me that disgusting candy!"

Mikey considered that was a fair trade sat up grabbing his green book, that he snatched out of Leo's room until the older brother came back. He was going to put it back and let Leo bring it to him showing Leo has changed, and the project worked.

"Fine deal, so care to tell?" Mikey eagerly sat there with a pen in hand.

Rolling his eyes, Donnie sighed, "When I eat gummy worms, they remind me of real worms and I start gagging, okay.

"Really?"

"Yes."

"Well then why so aggressive towards the poor gummy bears?" Mikey waited, knowing this would going to be a riot!

"They remind me…" Donnie started seeing Mikey's eyes open wide with excitement, like some big scandal was going to be revealed. "They remind me of…"

B ) (This part takes place after Leo and Raph fight and before going home. Having some beers at Casey's.)

Leaning back feeling the cold beer in hand Raph stared at the stars that fought through the city lights, "Hey Leo you know you have OCD right?"

In surprised Leo spit his beer out giving Raph a questionable look, "I… I do not-"

Interrupting the sorry excuses, Leo was going to spin to hide the truth Raph shook his head, "Trust me bro you have it. I saw your closet!"

"How... how is looking into my closet make you come to that conclusion… Wait! Why were you in my closet!" Leo spat narrowing his eyes.

Sighing Raph took another swig of his drink, "I was looking for your katana."

"Why were you looking for my katana?" Leo still wanted to know about the OCD accusation, but was more curious on why Raph was looking for his katana.

"Mikey told me you broke one at the Junkyard and needed my help to find your extra one in your room. Man that is why I found the book," Raph admitted, wondering why Leo really looked confused.

"I never broke any of my blades… Mikey said you went to my room for no reason, and he had no… oh shit…" Leo slurred starting to feel the buzz.

Blinking into his bottle Leo's mouth felt dry as he started to piece to gather how everything just fit, and it wasn't coincidence that he found the book after all?!

"Did we get played by Mikey?" Raph started to wonder if the young brother was behind this, so they would start talking, he wouldn't be surprised after seeing that book.

"OH I have a feeling it was not just him… Oh shell we really fuck up…" Leo swore, not caring, loving how the beer tasted.

"What do you mean?" Raph tilted his head, listening to Leo's explanation about how he got the book, the events he saw and notice yet didn't think anything of them and Master Splinter's letter. At the end hearing what Leo's theories that made sense Raph turned white on the realization as well, "Shit alright… Uh Leo I think we should include Donnie too, I think he was on it too."

Falling into silence, both turtles stared at the city, then Leo finally spoken, "We are lucky to have a family like them."

Nodding in agreement, Raph guzzled down the last of his beer grabbing another and handing Leo a new one too, "Yeah, let's not give them a reason to do this again… That was just wrong… they played us and we fucken fell for it. Man we are messed up…. SO about that OCD?" Raph brought it back up thinking it was best not to dwell on what his family did to keep him and his brother together.

"I don't have it, Raph!" Leo spat again accepting the beer, though he wasn't done with the one he was currently drinking.

"Leo you labeled everything! I mean everything! DO you really need to be reminded what a jar is?" Raph barked slapping his leg now finding it funnier than creepy as he originally took it.

"I don't label everything! I never labeled…" Leo suddenly was fumigated then trailed off like he was about to let loose some dark secret.

"You put your porn stash in alphabetical order instead didn't you?" Raph pointed out abruptly grinning ear to ear.

Silent Leo didn't answer that, as Raph suddenly burst out, flinging his arms in the air, "Yes one for me and zero for you bro!"

"Whattt?" Leo slurred more tilting his head feeling like he shouldn't done that.

"I know you had a porn stash, so I scored," Raph almost yelled that out to the rooftops as Leo moved forward to muffle Raph from saying yahoo and waking up the neighborhood.

"That is just disfigurating … dysfunctional… dis… dis damn… I mean disturbing…" Leo wrinkled his face pointing a finger at Raph, who was so proud of himself.

"And I loving it all the more!" Raph let out a roaring laughter falling backwards onto his shell and not letting the laughter to die.

"Shut uppp…" Leo moped bitterly.
