Sleeping With The Enemy: A TMNT Fanfiction

Target

If being emotionally unstable wasn't good enough, Mona also happened to be in an a awful physical state. She was stuck using crutches for two weeks, wearing a bandage on her wrist and was going to have troubles concealing the bruise on the side of her face. Other than that, she was fine.
She hopped into the living room, sitting down and resting her leg on the pillow which was on the coffee table. She had been on the phone to her mother for 20 minutes whom was in Philadelphia, and spent 19 minutes screaming and panicking about the accident.
'Mom, I can't exactly explain to you what happened, I was unconscious for more than half of it! No, I've already been to physical therapy this morning. I'm not going to be stupid enough to try and do any extra curricular activities, I can't even walk on my own two feet let alone climb to the top of pyramid. Okay, see you next week, love you.' She blew a loud kiss, before hanging up and throwing her phone to the side. She hung her head backwards, groaning in agony. She quickly raised her head back up, then hovering above her seat to find one of Leo's ridiculous xbox games. She picked up the game, then shrugged. Mortal Kombat X, no way her parents would let her play a game like that let alone her 13 year old brother. Oh well. She completely got up, hopping to the console and bending down to insert the game. She grabbed a control and waited patiently for the game to load. She began to play and chuckled to herself. She remembered when she was in Leo's position, sneaking in forbidden games in middle school and paying for them in candy, before everyone got so serious. She liked those days.

'Okay, ready to tell why on earth the Black Dragons wanted to have Mona?!' Leo shrieked.
'Erm, I tell you once you stop bellowing in my face!' Raph yelled back.
Leo stood in silence then folded his arms.
'I don't know, all I know that Karai was behind this.'
'How you so sure?' Leo questioned.
Raph dug through one of the pockets in the side of his belt, then waved a blade with the foot clan symbol written all over it in his face.
Leo inhaled heavily, snatching the blade and walking away.
Donnie entered from his lair, shaking his head.
'Ugh, poor Mona, couldn't imagine the pain she feels.'
Mikey nodded in agreement.
'Yeah. You do mean literally?'
'Yes. I do.'
Leo squeezed onto the blade, his hands going red. He grunted then threw it onto the other side of the room, causing it to stick to the wall.
'I can't do this. I'm not going to stand here and do nothing whilst my friends are being targeted by people trying to destroy our lives! I mean, we let April be the Kraang's lab rat, and no way am I letting Mona go down for a third time.' He snapped, his eyes narrowed and his face angry.
Mikey looked at his older brother, confused.
'When was the first?'

2/12/13
'God Mikey you are disgusting.' Raph sneered, wiping off the mouldy taco which stained his shoulder.
'I didn't know there were beetles which lived in that taco!' He whined.
'Well nezg time don't pick up food from the floor!' Raph yelled at him.
'Shush guys! We don't want to startle anyone. We're ninjas, remember?' Leo whispered.
Mona rolled her eyes, moving in front of everyone so she could open the door to the Stark Enterprises building.
'Oh don't blue, we're the only ones in this building.' She commented, pushing the door open and stepping inside. She clapped three times and the floor had suddenly lit up. The turtles and Mona stood in a line, staring at was in front of them in astonishment. And this was just one of 60 floors. The room was illuminated by the moonlight which hit against the glass doors. Every where you would look it was as if it were in a sci-fi movie. What really complimented the room was a picture of Mona's grandfather in black and white which floated in the centre of the room. It read 'The world isn't only made up of elements and compounds, but of love- Derek Leonato Stockman Senior.'
'As I much as I hate to admit, I'm impressed.' Raph admited, shrugging.
Mona looked over at him and smirked.
'I appreciate that.' She responded im a half sarcastic tone.
'It's beautiful. All of it.' Donnie said, still left in a gaze.
'Welcome home, Donnie.' Raph joked, moving over and patting him on the back.
'Oh right. By the way Don, the password to the security room is my birthday which you'll find on the 3rd floor. And if you don't know when my birthday is, I would be hurt.' She teased, pointing at him.
'Leo walked in a circles, looking up.
'Okay, so where could the mutagen could be?'
Mona pursed her lips, squeezing her eyes shut. She then shot them open.
'It could be in private and confidential, special projects or the 'room'.'
Raph screwed his face, folding his arms.
'What the hell is the room?'
'The room, is like my dad's man cave, next to the ice hockey and flat screen tv he keeps things he wants to himself in that room, including projects which no one knows about?'
This confused Leo.
'Why would he keep mutagen in that room?'
'No idea, but when I gave it to him, he seemed, well, a lot of things really, shocked, surprised, happy that I got it for him. Maybe he wants to see if it's useful or not before he can let anyone know about it. And perhaps-Mikey! Don't touch that!' She shouted. Mikey moved away from the hologram.
'As I was saying, perhaps he knows about how dangerous it is, and wants to keep it out of sight, not exactly the easiest thing to just chuck in the trash.'
'So how will we split?' Leo asked, funny, usually he answers the questions.
Mona shrugged.
'I was hoping you would answer that.'
Leo grinned.
'Okay, Mona and I will check the room, Raph and Mikey, special projects, Donnie, once you finish with security, private and confidential.'
'And then we'll all meet up at this floor if we can't find anything.'
They had all moved into a circle as they spoke. Mikey looked around curling his lips and nodding slowly.
'Okay, see ya.'
The group all went in their separate directions after, once there was no footsteps to be heard on the first flow lights were out.
Raph grumbled, pushing the elevator button, waiting for it to open.
'Can't believe I'm stuck with you, again!'
Mikey laughed, standing on his tip toes and putting an arm around his brother.
'I think we all know why brother.'
Raph looked at him with slanted eyes and an unamused face,
'What?'
'Leo's got a crush dude! It's so obvious! It's like April and Donnie.'
Raph moved Mikey's arm away, scoffing as they got into the elevator.
'Bullshit.'
'Is it really? Come one, can't you just see the chemistry? Like Troy and Gabriella, Christian and Ana, Peeta and Katniss. Ugh, I love romance.' Mikey fluttered his baby blue eyes, putting his hands to the side of his face. Raph rolled his eyes and pulled a retched face.
'It's embarrassing to be related to you.'
Mona stood by the door, scratching her neck.
'How is it not my birthday?!' She muttered loudly.
Leo stood behind as he watched Mona trying to crack the code, resisting the urge not to laugh.
'Why don't you just call your dad and ask?'
Mona snapped her head in Leo's direction, standing on her tip toes and grabbing his shoulders,
'Really? 10:30 at night, not at April's aunt's house, looking for something which I shouldn't be, and you want me to ask what the password is? God, Leo,,I thought as the aloha you would have common sense.'
Leo chuckled, picking her up and placing her back on her feet.
'Just a suggestion.'
'The only suggestion I need is what this damn code could be.'
Leo scratched the back his head.
'What about, your parents' wedding day?'
'Hm. 17.05.00. Yes, I'm a bastard.' Mona stepped back and smiled brightly when the door opened.
'Your welcome.'
Mona looked over at Leo and rolled her eyes playfully before walking in. She moved her hand over the wall until she reached the light switch, impressed in how her dad renovated the place.
'Wow, my dad is a such a kid.'
Leo examined the room, then something in the corner caught his eye.
'Oh my god, is that the Space Heroes arcade game. This is a classic! There are only six like this in all of America!' He raced over and admired the game, moving his hands all of it and looking at it in detail. He then stopped feeling eyes on him at the other end of the room. He began to blush and he turned around, leaning against it and laughing nervously.
'Not that I care.'
Mona shook her head and cracked up laughing.
'You're adorable.'
Leo smiled sheepishly.
'Don't worry, you're not the only one who has a cringe obsession you wouldn't want anyone to know about.'
Leo lifted his chin.
'Oh really, Upper East Side's princess has a nerdy dark side?'
Mona scoffed, putting a hand to her chest as her mouth dropped open.
'I am not a princess. And yes, with me, ever since I was kindergarten, I had a stranger love for Star Wars. I have nearly ever comic, watched every movie twice and dressed up as Yoda at least twice for hallowe'en.' She sighed in relief, then hopped onto a beam bag, laughing at herself as Leo joined her.
'That is amazing. You don't seem like that kind of person.' He said in between chuckles.
'Well, when you're practically born into the New York elite you don't exactly want to present yourself as someone not worthy of, a fabulous lifestyle. I mean I only just starter high school and I'm invited to sit with the junior cheerleaders at lunch. I'm not ashamed of the other half of me, but I feel like only a few are worth completely exposing myself to. I wouldn't expect you to understand.' She twiddled her thumbs, staring at the floor.
Leo shook his head, carrying on wondering around the room.
'No, I do. I mean, I'm related to Raph, and as much as I love, he can be a-'
'Judgemental bastard?'
'Pretty much.'
Mona chuckled, running a hand through her hair.
'Brothers.'
'Tell me about it.'
'Is it hard, being the eldest with your family?'
Leo groaned, rubbing his temple.
'You don't understand. I'm not going to lie, I love being leader and all, helping out and stuff, but then there are days where I honestly want to curl up in a hole and die. I always have to be chill about everything, I can't exactly break down because I would look like an idiot, but sometimes it can be really challenging putting on a brave face depending on the situation.'
Mona looked at him in awe.
'Well, in that case I don't want any more siblings.' She joked.
'You know, we should really start looking for that mutagen.' Leo reminded, raising his eyebrow ridge.
Mona grinned then shrugged.
'We have timw.'

Donnie, Raph and Mikey came down meeting at the centre of the fifth floor. Raph clapped three time, triggering the light switch to illuminate the room once again.  Raph tutted, putting a hand on his hip,
'Wow, where are they?!'
'Probably making out.' Mikey answered blankly.
Raph shot him a look, and Mikey shrugged his response.
Donnie, pointed at the elevator.
'Here they are, with the mutagen.' He said with a hint of relief.
Mona waved the large tube as she walked over.
Raph turned around, folding his arms and pursuing his lips.
'And what have you been up to?'
Mona and Leo looked at each other, before turning to Raph.
'Nothing.' They said simultaneously.
'Well, now we got the mutagen back, let's get the hell out. You got the security system running normally Don?' Mona asked, waving the mutagen in his direction.
He nodded and then everyone headed out, Mona last to leave the building.
She closed the door behind her. Then looked up, a walking fish and overgrown tiger towering her.
'Where do you think you're going with that?"
