This story is a rewrite of a fanfic I wrote in 1998, popular in the TMNT fandom. I have been getting emails from strangers asking me for "Cold Fire" or to write a new story in the same world, a world in which Michelangelo gains telekinetic and telepathic powers via alien technology but at a nearly fatal price. Angst, Tragedy, and Hurt/Comfort were my Tropes to play with. Mikey got hurt a lot. But being psionic helps delay death, you know? 
Now I get to play with the 2012 reboot from Nick. Despite my skepticism, it really grew on me. Mikey has freckles! And huge bright blue eyes! And he's the comedic prankster with secret brilliant intelligence, the loud silly annoying weird hedonist with ADHD and natural ninja skills who could be the most powerful martial artist if he'd concentrate his potential.
It irritated me at first when April O'Neil was brought in as a hybrid teen human with Kraang DNA and psychic powers. But once it was established that in Dimension X, Michelangelo was very powerful, I realized that potentially, Mikey could also have Kraang DNA, which is why he is able to navigate Dimension X as if it were his natural state. "Hey, in crazy backwards land, crazy backwards dude is king." And it does make me wonder if the writers will actually touch upon that. If Mikey really has Utrom DNA, and if it is activated, would he be potentially psychic? I'm not waiting to find out.
This story takes place in the middle of Season 4. But I imagine they could take a break for a few months to deal with... um... this. It's technically an AU since I ignore and expand the canon six months.
Warnings for gore, violence, language, descriptions of medical procedures. Hallucinations and creepy nightmares abound. I get very rough with Mikey and his brain.)

(I'll use MC for the protagonist. I want the reader to be able to read freely, project or insert their own OCs in the story) Life's been a real rollercoaster for you lately. School's a total nightmare, and things at home with mom are a hot mess ever since dad passed away. Just when you're about to throw in the towel, you wake up in a hospital room, and to your shock, your dad's right there with you, but nothing makes sense with the memories you keep. Before you can even process this bizarre reunion, you and your dad are victims of an attempted kidnapping, you being rescued by 4 mutant turtle brothers, who offer to help you find your father. As you get to know them better, you find yourself drawn into their world while trying to understand what's going on with your memories. Little do you know, there's more to your connection with these heroes than meets the eye. Eventual MC x Donatello relationship. A remake of Donatello and April's original relationship dynamic, but slow burned and unrushed, so they can build a true friendship before discovering that either of them have feelings for the other. --------------- I always felt like Donnie crushin' on April in the show was a bit off, especially 'cause she never felt the same way and it felt kind of forced. Chatted with my sis 'bout this ongoing plot in the series, and it hit me - the show could've been way cooler if April and Donatello had a tighter connection, giving 'em both the character development they deserved. Figured I had nothin' to lose, so this's what came outta that chat. Hope you dig it! First time putting words on paper, fingers crossed it ain't too shabby. Plus, English isn't my first language, so sorry if the phrasing is a bit off. Just in case, I'll mention neither TMNT 2012 or the fanart used for the cover are mine.

"Don't be embarrassed. I like that you can't focus around me." "I am completely capable of focusing around you." I say and cross my arms, more than wanting to take his ego down a peg. Leo's smirk only widens. Man he smirks a lot. Next thing I know, his body is pinning me against the wall. Mere millimeters separate our faces, and he looks directly into my eyes, unwavering. His breathing body moves against me. "How well can you focus now?" My teeth clench together as I look away from those amorous blue eyes that threaten to kindle a wild fire deep in the pit of my stomach. "Y-you have no effect on me," I state firmly, cringing internally when I stutter. Leo chuckles, his breath trickling over my face and tickling my skin. I can't help closing my eyes and shuddering. These induced feelings he's created in me reach to every corner of my soul and threaten to weaken my knees everytime he so much as stands close to me. How did this moment turn so heated? • Female reader, but still for any and all Leo kinnies. Former oneshot book turned into a real story! I love reading your comments so feel free to leave lots! For bonus chapters of this book go to my oneshot book and look for the chapters starting with the turtle and blue heart emojis. *I do not own any of these characters already associated with the show. First time doing this, I hope you enjoy! And if you do, drop a vote! ⭐️ • "I finished reading this and I felt like I was actually there, you are an amazing writer with so much talent. I loved this, don't stop writing please." ~ @Emma2436, Chapter 1 "I think I can fly with how many butterflies are in my stomach." ~ @bluegeekyfangirl, Chapter 27 "Your work is awesome! Honestly a lot of the other fanfics I saw didn't really write it all that nice and they were rather simplistic and you can get bored of them easily. But this is really creative, original and engaging. It's really the best thing ever. I keep reading it over and over, and it never gets

But - as fate would have it - he finds himself plummeting from the night sky. A secret concealed for sixteen years is revealed in the most unexpected of ways. A secret that Michelangelo Hamato realizes he will have to keep close to him; that may have already decided his destiny. Maybe he has these newfound abilities for a reason. Maybe that drifting raven feather all those years ago was orchestrated for a bigger purpose - and gave a greater power - than he could ever imagine. But when the unexplainable happenings begin to go haywire, the youngest brother finds himself facing even more truly all on his own. Because waking up laying on the bare earth - rather than where you know you went to sleep - can only mean more chaos to come in his already puzzling life. And it seems to be only the beginning of it all. ❝ 𝕎𝕚𝕟𝕘𝕤 𝕠𝕗 𝕗𝕝𝕒𝕞𝕖 𝕤𝕙𝕒𝕝𝕝 𝕓𝕦𝕣 𝕟 𝕓𝕝𝕒𝕕𝕖 𝕥𝕠 𝕒𝕤𝕙. ❞ // EDITED description.

(Cover designed with PicsArt) WATTPAD DELETED CHAPTERS 14 AND 17 AND I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO Raphael Hamato x DemiGirl! Reader (ATTENTION: THIS BOOK HAS BEEN REWRITTEN. THERE IS A SLIGHTLY NEW PLOTLINE AND A LOT OF DETAILS ARE DIFFERENT. I CREATED MY OWN UNIVERSE. GO CHECK IT OUT! "They Lies They Shared" :)) You were an average teenager in the city of New York. There was nothing special about you in particular. Your friends were quite special, though. One of them in particular was more special to you than the others. His name was Raphael. What made him special to you? You had no idea. You'd just grown closer to him over the span of several years compared to his three brothers. You and him were quite the mess, but that's what made things special between the two of you. Some might even say that you and him were a hurricane together. If it were any consolation, at least country singers like hurricanes. Despite having the title of a storm, you didn't think there was anything special about you. . .but maybe you were wrong. Due to your connections with the turtles, this made you the bullseye to ,probably, the worst enemies of New York City. Will you fall in the hands of the enemy? How often could that happen? Warning; Blood, gore, profanity, violence, suicide, depression, poorly described anxiety, there's some emotional abuse here ngl, and continuity errors LMAO If you are suffering from depression, thoughts of suicide, domestic abuse, etc., just know that you can get help. I can send you hotlines to help you. You are not alone. With love, Donnie.
