Hey! Soooo...12am is considered Sunday morning right? :3 okay then. I hope this chapter ISNT tubbish. I tried ._. I really did. Believe me I have no idea how vocabulary works for toddlers.

Disclaimer:Le TMNT is not Le mine, if it was Le Mikey would be mine mwahahhahahahaha.

I land on the floor with a thump. It's pitch black. Somebody drops on my shell with an "Off!". Donnie.

"Don, get your fat shell off my back before I make sure I find a memory of Mikey singing One Direction and lock you in there forever." I growl

At the prospect of having to listen to Mikey sing One Direction, (the last time that happened, it did not end well) Donnie stood up immediately and jumped as Leo landed on his feet in front of him.

Showoff...

"April?" Donnie asks. I hear a scream that's cut short as Donnie catches the red head in his arms and prevents her from smashing onto the ground like a pancake.

April turns pink. "Erm thanks Donnie...." She hops out of his arms and immediately walks to my side. Oh great. Let the awkwardness roll in.

However awkward this may be, I notice the disappointed look In Donnie's eyes and smirk. Hah. I'm going to have so much fun teasing him once we get this over and done with.

"What are we doing here? And where's the memory?" Leo asks

"And where is 'Here'?" Donnie adds.

A blinding light fills the room and I cover my eyes to reduce the glare. Ouch. After a few moments I put my hand down and squint as I try to get used to the lighting. Then I notice something...odd.

My body which includes arms, legs, everything, have turned transparent. I can only see a faint outline of my hands. Like im a ghost. Then I look around and notice everyone looks the same as me.

"WAPHIE!" I turn around to the source of the voice and see younger versions of All of us in the dojo with splinter, training. This..is so weird.." Donnie remarks.

"We're experiencing Mikey's old memories from when he was a toddler. Let's just see. Maybe there's something important we need here." April says as she looks at the scene before her in awe.

Leo looks on silently as he watches his old self fight against Donnie. He was a chubby kid, and even now he's shaking his head muttering something about losing the baby fat.

They spar for a few minutes, Leo winning in the end. He helps Donnie up and goes back to sit next to Mikey and....me (I guess) with a proud smile on his face. Fearless leader will always be our fearless leader.

Young Mikey and young me (it's so weird to refer to myself in that way...but what the heck. When there's an evil dark magic trying to consume your brother, why not.) stand, and make our way to the mat. We bow to each other the way Splinter taught us to and start fighting.

I'm amazed. Young me dashes at Mikey and all he does is side-step. Young me turns around, confused at why he didn't hit Mikey and then yelps as Young Mikey does a backflip and pulls my bandana down, blinding young me.

The fight is over before it began in a flurry of sweet ninja moves I didn't know Mikey knew how to do. Even at a young age.

Splinter smiles proudly at Mikey as he helps young me up and they sit next to Leo and Donnie. Young me looks upset after losing (DUH) while Young Donnie has his attention focused elsewhere, probably thinking about some weird invention.

Young Leo however..looks...Jealous. He just stares at Mikey, perhaps trying to figure out how MIKEY, the youngest of them, was able to beat Raph so easily, and with all those moves too...

Splinter smiles at younger us, nods his head and younger me and Donnie take off, me probably retreating to my room to play with Spike or maybe vent my anger on the practice dummy, Donnie obviously to his lab to...well...do whatever nerdy stuff he does.

Young Mikey hugs splinter, and exits the dojo. Or at least that's what I thought was going to happen..until I notice he hides behind the wall. We all exchange glances. What's going on?

Young Leo watches Mikey run off. Or seemingly run off anyway. Judging by the cheeky grin on Young Mikey's face, he wants to scare Leo as he walks out of the dojo.

Young Leo turns to master splinter, tears welling Up in his eyes. "Mastew Spwinter..." Splinter lifts an eyebrow. "Yes, Leonardo?" It's obviously not common to see Fearless crying. Even as a toddler.

"Donnie, get the camera. We need a picture of this for future blackmail purposes," I whisper to Donnie who laughs.

"I hear you guys...."

"Shut up guys I want to hear what Leo...or younger Leo is saying,"

We all keep quiet after that. "Why is it that Mikey better at me than everything? No mattew how hard I traim, he aways get to be bettew than me. Itsh no fair!" Young Leo sulks, a tear slipping down his cheek.

Young Mikey listens to his brother's sobs, ranting about how much he hates him for being so good at Ninjitsu and how he's better at it than Leo when Leo trains more than him. His originally cheeky grin had vanished, replaced by a trembling bottom lip.

"Leo..hates me?" Tears form in Mikey's baby blue eyes and he runs off, without leaving a single clue that he had been eavesdropping on the conversation.
