It was a dark quiet night in N.Y.C. The wind was blowing, the street was empty and there were no stars up in the dark night sky.

Inside the sewers of New York, there was an orange masked ninja turtle named Michelangelo or Mikey for short. He was on the couch watching TV. Mikey also had 3 other brothers named Leonardo or Leo, Raphael or Raph and Donatello or Donnie. They were all ninja turtles who were raised by their Rat Master named Master Splinter who was actually a Human before but he turned into a Rat.

Anyway, while Mikey was watching TV, he felt really bored so he decided to ask his friends and brothers to hang out with him. Mikey walked up to a red masked turtle who was on the couch reading comics named, Raph with his girlfriend, Midnight Shimmer.

Midnight had bright blue eyes and black and red streak hair. And she was wearing a red shirt with a jacket on, black jeans and black boots.

"Hey, Raph, Midnight, wanna hang out?" Asked Mikey.

"Uh can't you see we're kinda busy here?" Raph said, feeling annoyed.

"Oh uh....Sorry I'm just....SO BORED!!!" Mikey said as he put his hands on his face.

"Then do something!!!" Shouted Raph.

"Raph, please what did I say about shouting at Mikey?" Midnight said as he looked at her hotheaded boyfriend.

"Ugh....sorry Mikey....." Said Raph, rolling his eyes.

"It's alright dudes....I'll just go and ask somebody else." Said Mikey as he got up and went to one of his older brother's lab.

In the lab a purple masked turtle with a gap on his tooth named Donnie was with his girlfriend, Twin O'Malley. They were polishing and cleaning the lab.

Twin had bright green eyes and brown hair and purple streak on her hair. She was wearing a dark pink shirt, grey leggings and pink shoes.

"Hey D, Twin wanna hang out with me? I'm bored!!" Mikey whined.

"Sorry can't Mikey. Me and Twin have to finish up cleaning the lair. I can't stand seeing it all messed up!" Said Donnie as he swept the floor with the broom on his hand.

"Yeah sorry Mikester. Maybe after we're done ok?" Said Twin, saying the nickname she gave him.

"Oh it's alright. I'll just....ask somebody else....again...." Mikey said sadly.

With that, Mikey walked to the dojo where his eldest brother wearing a blue mask named, Leo and his girlfriend, Raven Queen were training with each other.

Raven had dark blue eyes and blue and peach streak hair. And she was wearing a black shirt, blue pants and black and blue boots.

"Hey guys wanna hang..." Said Mikey but he was interrupted by Leo who was fighting Raven.

"Woah!! Easy Raven!! This is training not "trying to kill my boyfriend" fight!!" Said Leo as he dodged all of his girlfriend's strong punches and kicks.

"Hey just because your my boyfriend does not mean I can go easy on you!" Said Raven as she smirked while she was trying to hit Leo.

"Ummm....n-never mind...." Said Mikey as he left the dojo and sighed once again.

Suddenly he saw one of his human friends, Casey Jones and his girlfriend, Ola were walking in the lair entrance. They just came back from their romantic date on the rooftops.

Casey Jones had chocolate brown eyes and black hair. And he was wearing a black fancy suit with a red tie on and black shoes.

And Casey's girlfriend, Ola had hazel green eyes and dark brown hair. She was wearing a purple dress and dark pink heels.

"Hey guys! How was the date?" Asked Mikey.

"*blushed* It was good." Ola said shyly, trying to hide her blush.

"*blushed* It was great!" Said Casey as he was blushing as well.

"Sooo.....Casey, Ola wanna go and hang out?? I'M SOO BORED!!!" Mikey whined again.

"Sorry, Mikey maybe next time. I'm a bit tired and these heels are literally killing me!!" Said Ola as she sat down on the couch.

"Oh....It's alright, Ola. What about you, Casey?" Asked Mikey.

"Sorry, Dude but I am tired as well. Maybe another time?" Casey said as he sat on the couch with Ola.

"Y-yeah....another time....I'll just go by myself..." Mikey said sadly as he took his skateboard and went out the lair.

"*sighed* Poor Mikey....you think he'll be ok?" Ola asked as she felt bad for him.

"He'll be fine, Oles. He's just dying from boredom." Casey teased.

"Oh stop it Jones." Ola said as she rolled her eyes.

Once Mikey got up on one of the rooftops, he began skateboarding slowly and sadly. He sighed and stopped and looked up at the dark night sky.

"Everything changed ever since the guys dated the girls....and I'm the only one without a girlfriend...." Said Mikey, still looking at the night sky. "*sighed* I just wish I have a girlfriend....then I won't be so lonely all the time...."

Suddenly music started to play and Mikey began to sing.

Mikey: Whatever you do, I'll do it too
Show me everything and tell me how
It all means something
And yet nothing to me
I can see there's so much to learn
It's all so close and yet so far
I see myself as people see me
Oh, I just know there's something bigger out there
I wanna know, can you show me
I wanna know about these
strangers like me
Tell me more, please show me
Something's familiar about these strangers like me
Every gesture, every move that she makes
Makes me feel like never before
Why do I have
This growing need to be beside her
Ooo, these emotions I never knew
Of some other world far beyond this place
Beyond the trees, above the clouds
I see before me a new horizon
I wanna know, can you show me
I wanna know about these strangers like me
Tell me more, please show me
Something's familiar about these strangers like me
Come with me now to see my world
Where there's beauty beyond your dreams
Can you feel the things I feel
Right now, with you
Take my hand
There's a world I need to know
I wanna know, can you show me
I wanna know about these strangers like me
Tell me more, please show me
Something's familiar about these strangers like me
...I wanna know...

After he finished singing, he sighed once again and picked up his skateboard and went back to the lair.

Little did he know that soon all of his loneliness is gonna change forever.
