Evil laughter echoed in the dark. The scales on a goldfish's skin, swaying in the deep water. Those blue eyes that haunt them, even though they tossed her away down the drain. The sound of blood slashing at the body of a decent person with a giant hook the size of an ax blade, fresh blood soaking the walls and tasting its flesh. A form of a demolish creature sinking its teeth into the punctured organs as blood dripped like a spiral. They can't help but react.

Mikey shot up in bed in fright, his eyes widened and heart racing. He just had that nightmare of that odd creature. Sweat poured down on his head, soaking his orange pajamas. He looked and saw that Manako was still asleep, peacefully unaware of the danger she's in. He sighed, relieved.

"It was just a dream, Mikey," he told himself. "We lost her a long time ago, and Leo was right. Hiding the truth means being in trouble."

Then odd looking pink slime oozed down from the walls. Mikey screamed a little and when he calmed down, he saw that it was just paint. "It's just a new graffiti. That won't give me nightmares."

He laid back down and turned his head to his mirror and saw the paint had morphed into words. It had spelled something on the wall. He sat up again and began to read them.

" 'You flush me, I flush you?' AAHHH!"

His screaming woke Manako up and she yelped in horror as she clung into the vine walls, shivering. Her eyes were snapped open and adrenaline boosted into her veins. Overcoming that sudden yell, she panted as she saw Mikey panting hard, his eyes wide with fear.

"Wha? What? What is it, Mikey?" Manako gasped, convulsing.

"Manako.. Look over there."

Mikey pointed to the strange paint of the wall as Manako glanced at them. She dropped down carefully before she looked at the mirror which had read the same words that he saw.

"Mikey... What is this?" she shivered, nervously.

"Don't panic, Manako," Mikey told her, cautiously. "Stay calm. I'm gonna go get my brother, okay?" He began to rush out of the bedroom as Manako waited.



Shira and Leo are both in their bedroom, sleeping peacefully, their arms wrapped around each other for a comfortable spot they could rest their heads into. The sudden sounds of footsteps made them open their eyes. Shira let out a moan, rubbing her eyes beneath her sleep mask. In the doorway, Mikey had stood there, panting heavily and his eyes widened with terror.

"Leo, Shira! Come to our bedroom, quick!"

Shira stood up, removing her sleep mask. She is wearing rabbit PJs and holding a Tamami plush doll in her arms. "Mikey, it's the middle of the night. You shouldn't have watched those horror movies so we can help you with your nightmares."

"But it's becoming real!" he squeaked.

"Well," the sea turtle pondered. She is becoming the oldest sister of the family since Raph is a few months older than her and better yet, her baby brother needed help. "Okay. We'll go with you."

After a few seconds, Manako peered outside the doorway until Mikey came back with Leo and Shira. But to their surprise to the two youngest lovers, the pink words were gone, like water rinsing off the paint.

"Why am I not getting my beauty Zs right now?" Leo asked, rubbing his eyes.

"It was right here, I swear," Mikey protested, getting over the wall. "It said, 'You flush me, I flush you.' She's back and she's mad at us!"

"She?" Leo raised his eyebrow. "I know you're talking about the thing we talked about never talking about."

"Who is she?" Shira asked Mikey, confused.
