~*~

Mikey on the floor of his room, surrounded by his old toys and action figures. He had an orange pacifier in his mouth and was giggling softly.

A few months ago, he had found a hidden room in his own room that was most likely a closet, but Mikey used it to keep all of his agere gear hidden.

"I hope no one comes in..." Miiey lisped through his pacifier as he played. "I can't let them see me wike dis..." His little age was 2 at the moment.

Mikey found out he was an age regressor a few months ago and April was the only one who knew. She had been the one to buy him everything he needed!

But what Mikey really wanted was his big brothers to take care of him and be little around them. However, he knew that couldn't happen...

He couldn't tell them....it was weird....they'd never see him the same way ever again, he had to keep it a secret.

Suddenly, he heard a knock at his door. "Mikey? It's time for patrol!" Leo called suddenly.

"Uh...one sec, bro!" Mikey said, immediately slipping out of littlespace due to shock.

He immediately threw his toys and pacifier into the secret room before closing the door and locking it. He then jumped on his bed with a comic, acting as if he'd been reading the whole time.

Leo opened the door. "What's taking so long? We've got to go!" He said a bit impatiently.

Mikey smiled nervously. "Oh uh...I was just finishing my comic..." He fibbed, put the book down, and went with Leo. He could continue playing later, he decided.

Raph and Donnie were waiting impatiently. "There you are, what were you doing in there?" Raph asked.

Mikey blushed. "Nothing bro, just uh...chilling!"

Raph shrugged. "Whatever, let's just go!" They went out on patrol and Mikey was relieved that his secret was safe...for now.

Several hours later, they returned back to the lair and Mikey immediately returned to his room to continue what he'd been doing.

He sat on the floor, drawing a picture of his bros while he sucked on his pacifier and hugged a teddy to his chest.

All of a sudden, the door opened. "Hey Mikey, have you seen my-" Raph walked in and completely froze.

He was not expecting to see his youngest brother sitting on the floor...with a pacifier.Mikey blushed bright red and immediately spat out the pacifier as Raph stood there in shock.

"I...I'll come back later!" Raph called as he immediately left the room, blushing as red as his mask.

Leo and Donnie looked at him. "What's going on?"

Donnie asked. "You look like to you saw a cockroach." Leo added.

Raph took a deep breath. "I...I found Mikey in his room, with a pacifier, and coloring a picture on the floor..."

Donnie and Leo's eyes widened. "What?"

Donnie stood up, "Guys, I think I know what's going on..."

He pulled out his laptop and typed on the keyboard. "I think Mikey might be an age regressor..." He showed them the computer.

"He...acts like a little kid? Well, he usally does already but...why?" Raph asked in realization.

Donnie shrugged. "People regress for all different reasons including but not limited to depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, PTSD, and more." Donnie expained. "It's a coping mechnaism and it isn't harmful, it can help him feel calm, happy, and safe."
