You will be Mondo Gecko

Chapter 4

"Okay, brothers, are you ready to be the best ninja warriors ever?"

Leo tried to motivate his two brothers in orange and purple masks. But these two only responded with a big yawn, more than justified. They were in their training room at half past five in the morning. An hour at which they would normally still be sleeping.

"Come on, guys, where are your ninja spirits?"

"Mine stayed in bed" answered the purple one, while rubbing his face with his hands, hoping to chase away sleep "May I know the reason for waking us up at this sooo convenient hour?"

The blue one noticed the sarcasm in the other's question. But he just ignored it, to proceed with his explanation.

"Well... As you may already know, dad left me in charge of you and the lair. So that means I'm in charge of your training as well"

"Excuse me, what?!" exclaimed the one in purple, more than surprised by the news.

"What you heard, bro. I'll be your sensei for these days"

There was a brief silence in the room, until the two brothers of the red-eared turtle could no longer contain their laughter.

"Hey, this is serious. Pops told me I should train them in his absence" said the leader, crossing his arms, annoyed by the attitude of his brothers, who were laughing to the point of clutching their stomachs.

"I, heh heh" The genie spoke trying to control his laughter, without having much luck in it "That was a good one, Leo"

The one in blue was very annoyed. He didn't have a shred of respect from his brothers, even if he was more than serious now.

After a few seconds, the turtles were finally able to calm their laughter and regained some composure. Still with tears in their eyes from the previous laughter.

"Heh Heh I don't have time for this. I'm going to my lab" said Donatello, starting his way to the lab.

"If you walk through that door, I'll tell dad about your lack of interest in ninjutsu" Leonardo warned him, pointing at him menacingly.

"Really? Oh no! Now what will I do without the teachings of Leo sensei?" said the purple one, in a mocking tone.

The blue one crossed his arms, to give him an annoyed look.

"Then you won't mind not being in your lab for a month. Because, if I remember correctly, you were the one who left the bacteria farm in Raph's favorite bowl" Leonardo took out his phone, to show the purple one Raphaels number.

"You wouldn't dare" the genius said defiantly, but nervously at the same time.

"You think so?"

Leo slowly moved his index finger closer to the phone screen, in the direction of the button to call, while looking at Donatello with a malevolent smile. Causing his brother to look on in horror at that action.

He was a centimeter away from calling, until the genius couldn't take it anymore.

"Stop! I'm coming"

Donatello returned to his brothers reluctantly, while Mikey waited quietly for the day's lesson to begin.

"Okay... As I was saying, dad told me that we must continue training in his absence. So don't make those faces"

The other two nodded dejectedly at the turtle in front of them, and then sat down on some boxes set up as seats.
