I own nothing... wish I did, I give some writers on here jobs to create awesome new TMNT episodes for TV or a new movie ;)

I would also like to thank Leonardo1885 for Beta reading this, you've been a big help in this, so Thank You So Much Again ;) and to Everybody else that has helped me to make this story possible ;)

Leonardo woke up in a panic. His plastron heaved up and down with his rapid breathing and his bedding was soaked with sweat. He sat up and laid his head in his hands, he wasn t sure what had awoken him. Then with a jolt he knew. "Oh God, it's THE DAY again! APRIL FOOL'S!" Leo said with a inward groan, not again.

"Hmm, I wonder who Mikey will pick to play his pranks on this year," Leo mused as he left his bedroom. Stretching and yawning a little as he headed for the dojo to began his early morning training.

Each year Mikey would pick one of his family members to prank all day long, except for Master Splinter; even Mikey wasn't crazy enough to try to prank his own sensei and father.

It wasn t long before Leo got his answer on which brother was going to be Mikey's victim this year. He tried to hide a smile of relief that it wasn't him, as Raph's yell echoed around the lair "MIKEY!" This is going to be trouble thought Leo as he left the dojo and ran into Don as he left the lab heading for the kitchen.

"Hey Don, guess that's strike one. What did Mikey do to Raph?" Leo asked

"Nothing much yet," he too was relived that he wasn't picked this year. His precious technology and experiments might escape this day unscathed Don thought happily.

"So far he just dyed Raph's mask and gear neon pink," Donnie continued but we both know that he's just getting started.

"That's what I'm worried about," Leo said with a sigh. Why would Mikey pick Raph of all turtles. Does he have a death wish or something?

Raph came storming out of his room after finding a spare red mask and gear. Grumbling under his breath, he headed straight to the dojo to take his frustration out on one of the training dummies. After a particular vicious strike, however one of the dummies burst. This was not totally unexpected, what was unexpected was Raph getting sprayed with whip cream all over himself.

In the kitchen Leo and Don where getting breakfast when another bellow splintered the air "MIKEY!"

Leo exchanged looks with Don.

"Strike two," Donnie said with a grin as a white and green fury left the dojo and headed for the bathroom. After a few minutes a still wet Raph entered the kitchen and grabbed his favorite box of cereal and poured some into a bowl and added some milk. He suddenly found it tasted really bad and looked down at what he was eating, "cat food and sour milk?" He yelped and poured the offending bowl down the sink. "That's it," he snarls "I've had enough. I'm going for a bike ride." He glared at his two brothers sitting at the table daring them to tell him different. Getting no objection he headed for the garage and his favorite object next to his sais. When he flicked on the light and saw what his orange banded brother did to his bike the world went side ways and his vision went red...

"MICHELANGELO!" Raph roared.

"Ow! I think Raph burst my ear drums with that one." Donnie complained to Leo as he finished off his waffles.

"Well that's strike three, Mikey's doomed now, so where is he hiding?" asked Leo.

"Where else," Donnie said as he pointed upwards where they stored the holiday decorations.

Before either brother could leave the table Raph went by the kitchen so enraged by what his brother did to his bike that you could feel the wrath coming off of him in waves.

Donnie and Leo couldn't believe how ticked off Raph looked and raced to the garage to find out what Mikey did to push the hot head over the edge. Looking into the garage Leo and Donnie tried not laugh out loud at the sight of Raph's bike. Mikey had painted it a glittering neon pink with stickers of unicorns, rainbows and stars all over it. He even put on pink tassels on the handle bars, a large pink whicker basket in the front and training wheels on the back.

"Oh he is so dead," Leo said with a loud groan and rushed off to find Mikey before Raph.

Unfortunately Leo was too late this time. Raph was already dragging a squirming, begging Mikey by the bandanna tails towards the garage. With shove he pushed the prankster inside.

"Mikey how could you," he hissed vehemently with barely controlled fury as he pointed to his beloved bike that was now very girly.

"I didn't know you redecorated your bike," Mikey replied a little cheekily as he plastered on a sly smile. Its very you," he continued with a little chuckle.

Donnie's palm slapped against his forehead and Leo sighed deeply. 'This is going to end very badly,' he thought but he had no idea on how bad it was going to get.

"Raph..." Leo said, almost warningly.

Raph ignored his eldest brother and with a feral growl deep in his throat Raph gave into his rage.

"Your a lazy, sorry excuse for a ninja and I'm seriously getting sick an tired of all your pranks and goofing off. Your always getting yourself into trouble, and I end up havin' to save your ass most of the time. If not me its Leo or Don that has too! Why can't you just grow the hell up? All you are to me is a pest in my life a liability," he spat out at his youngest brother, as he paced in front of him.

"Raph..." Mikey felt like he should be angry at how Raph was talking to him. But he was more hurt, than anything. "I didn't mean to..."

"Of course not!" He roared as he whirled to face his little brother, his arms shooting above his head in exasperation. "You never mean to do anything wrong, do you? You never think! You go around thinkin' everything is all fun and games... Well, guess what Mikey it isn't! So far, you've screwed up royally more times then I can FRIGGIN' count! And I, for one, am sick and tired of cleanin' up your damn messes!" Mikey let out a painful sob, silent tears fallen down his grassy cheeks.

"As of right now, we're no longer brothers." Mikey shook his head, letting out another painful whimper at hearing this. "I don't ever wanna see your face again. You're nothin' to me. I wish I NEVER knew you! You are the WORST brother in the world ! I wish you would just DIE ALREADY! When you die, that day will be the HAPPIEST DAY OF MY LIFE! You know why, because I never have to put up with another of your stupid pranks or crummy jokes ever again. Got it? Raph roared in a cold voice, completely blind with rage, at the orange clad brother.

They all gaped at Raph.

Don had an expression on his face as if he'd been slapped.

Leo felt rage build in his chest, Raph's remark was completely uncalled. He hastily glanced at his youngest brother. Mikey looked as though he'd been hammered in the stomach by a sledgehammer. His baby blue eyes were as wide as dinner plates and his eyes glittered with unshed tears.

"Raph I'm..." Mikey began trying to apologize, as he did so he stumbled backwards, then he quickly turned around and fled the lair without finishing his sentence. Allowing his legs to carry him, not caring where he ended up, as long as it was far away from his brothers. The door of the lair slammed shut as Mikey left.

Raph stood stunned as the anger left him as quickly as it came, when he realized what he had said to his youngest brother, his best friend. Oh God what have I done, Raph thought bleakly, dread and anguish rising up in him.

"How could you say those things to Mikey. Its April Fools today Raph. You knew Mikey was going to pull pranks today, if you didn't want to get pranked you should have stayed at Casey's," Leo yelled at the hot head. Shaken slightly as he tired hold back his own fury at his brother.

"Leo, I forgot what today was, I said those things without thinking and ya know it! I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." Raph's voice hitched slightly, as he clenched and unclenched his hands into fists. A loud growl escaped his throat as a fist connected with the brick wall. His chest was heaving with every breath he took.

"Its not me you have to say sorry too," Leo growled to his brother with a firmness that was not to be contradicted.

"Go find him," He ordered pointing to the lair door, his eyes glittering dangerously.

Raph ran out the lair like lightening hoping to find Mikey before something bad happened to him, praying that he wasn't to late to say I'm sorry, please come home, brother.
