The Ookami Among Us: A Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle FanFiction

A Little Taste of Freedom

Hitomi woke up, trapped in her blanket cocoon. During the night she must’ve tossed and turned, and ended up wrapping everything around her in the process. She kicked and stretched until she was free, grabbed one of her bags, and headed into the bathroom to shower. Living in the sewers, you built up dirt and grime faster than above ground. She relished in the fact that she now had shampoo, conditioner, and feminine-smelling soap and body wash.

Mikey got up and went though his normal routine. He took off his underpants (God knows why he wants to wear them in the first place), ate whatever unfortunate piece of pizza was under his bed, grabbed his bath towel, and walked out the door in time to see Leo coming out his door with his own towel. The gave a groggy nod in greeting, and Mikey absent-mindedly followed Leo to the bathroom. The shower was already running when they went into the toilet rooms to do their business, but they figured it was just Raph or Donnie, up and at it before they were. What they weren’t expecting, was to walk in on Hitomi.

 

“GOOD GOD WHAT ARE YOU DOING!” she screeched, throwing her shampoo bottle at Mikey, who was unfortunate enough to walk into the showers first.

“AHHH!” Mikey threw his hands over his eyes and managed to run out, but not before smacking into the wall, and Leo, before doing so.

“What’s going on?” Leo asked, having missed the earlier mishap.

“Dude, you do not want to go in there,” Mikey replied, still covering his eyes. Just then, Hitomi came storming out of the shower, with a towel clutched around her

“Mikey, please tell you didn't walk into the shower on her.”

“I forgot she was here!”

“What is wrong with you people!” Hitomi cried, using one hand to hold her towel, and throwing the other in the air dramatically.

“We didn’t know it was you,” Leo tried to explain calmly. She continued to glare at Mikey, despite his placating tone.

“Sorry bro,” Mikey said, still blushing. Hitomi huffed, but otherwise calmed down.

“I’m going back into the showers to get dressed. Don’t walk in on me again,” she growled.

“Wait,” Leo said. Hitomi whipped around.

“What?” she snapped.

“Master Splinter wants you to come to training today. So... Wear athletic clothes.” Hitomi nodded and disappeared into the other room.

“I heard yelling,” Raph said, as Donatello walked past him towards the showers. Hitomi must’ve heard the footsteps coming closer, because out of nowhere she yelled;

“I'M NAKED IN HERE.” Don immediately stumbled back.

“If Hitomi was in here already, why are you two?” he asked Mikey and Leo.

“Well,” Mikey started. “We thought she was you or Raph, so we just kinda, walked in.”

“He means he walked in. I saw nothing.” Donnie face palmed and Raph snickered.

“So you walked in on her in the shower? God Mikey we all knew you were stupid...”

“I wasn’t expecting her!”

“New rule,” Leo interjected. “Always knock before going into the showers.”

“Agreed.”
