Double-Mutated Mikey
Chap 2: Exodus
Continued from the short story written by @boots-with-the-fur-club
Prev || Next
Mikey growls loudly at the creatures as they come close. His marks start to flicker, as if they want to glow bright with his ninpo but can't anymore. Some part of Raph wonders what that means... but currently, he's terrified of what Mikey is going to do.
He's never heard him growl like that.
It's deep and guttural, much lower than Mikey has ever made his voice go.
Mikey suddenly lunges, running on all fours at the army of mutated monsters coming at them.
One creature that looks like it may have once been part wolf tries to swipe at him, but Mikey dodges it and swings his tail at him instead, sweeping out the hind legs and causing it to trip. Mikey's tail suddenly becomes sentient, grabs the hound and swings it like a club, knocking back several mutated animals before tossing the wolf like the world's furriest bowling ball. It slams into a row of oncoming beasts, slowing them down.
Raph can't let Mikey do this alone.
That's not what brothers do.
Not again.
He punches his fists together, creating two large hologram arms, and charges to join the fray.
Mikey is becoming wilder and wilder by the second, his grimace turning into a nasty snarl with sharp fangs beginning to jutt out. His eyes begin getting wider, the red irises glowing brighter and brighter. There are strange spines starting to creep out of his shell, the scales on his arms becoming sharp scutes like armor. Even his whipping tail -- which was much shorter before this crazy thing -- is starting to grow spines on it, the end practically looking like a mace or medieval weapon.
Raph is starting to get scared of his baby brother.
"Mikey! Mikey, you okay?" he asks, as he pushes several mutated raccoons and beavers aside.
Mikey doesn't respond beyond a gravelly low growl as he grabs a mutant badger by the tail and flings it into a wall.
How many animals are there?!
The hall is starting to fill up!
"Mike, we gotta get outta here! I can't hold these guys off for much longer!" he grunts, creating a few extra hologram arms to help ward off the rest. "Plus, I don't wanna hurt em!"
Mikey doesn't seem to hear him as he roars at the hoard. A few creatures start to back away in fright, before what looks like a mix between a boar and a porcupine starts running at them.
"That's our cue!" Raph shouts, grabbing Mikey. The spines and spikes protruding from his shell stab his palms and scrape his arms...
Mikey whirls around and bites Raph hard on the hand.
He yelps as he drops him. There's a mark on his hand, a deep indent. A small puncture wound begins to turn bright red. A tiny flow of blood begins to form just above his thumb.
Raph stares at Mikey.
Mikey glares back, the glow in his eyes bright as the blood on his hand.
"...Mikey...?"
His voice is a whisper. He can't stop shaking.
A moment passes and the glow in Mikey's eyes begins to dissipate, the spikes and spines slowly creeping back into his shell and skin. His tail smoothes out and starts to curl around his feet. His demeanour shifts, from one of a feral animal to a scared kid slowly coming out of a tantrum. He looks at Raph in fear as he realizes what he did. He whimpers, backing away slowly...
"Wait, it's okay! Really, I'm not mad, I --"
The mutant boar reaches them, slamming head-first into Mikey and throwing him into a wall. Mikey grunts with pain, a large crater forming in the drywall where he landed. He gets up quickly, his eyes immediately shifting back to red as he goes to retaliate.
Raphael watches in shock and horror as Mikey grabs the boar by the tusks and rips them out from his jaw. The pig squeals in agony and charges again, two smaller tusks quickly starting to grow back almost instantly.
"MIKEY!!"
"R--aph! Ra-- Come in, do y-- read me--?"
"Leo?!"
Raph looks down at his communicator. He totally forgot about it for a second... Leo and Donnie had been searching the other floors of the facility looking for Mikey, too! He should have let them know he'd found him --
"RAPH! I repeat, Raph, can you hear me?!"
"Yeah!" he shouts back over the screaming behind him. "I read you, Leo!"
"What the heck is all that noise?!"
"Long story short, I found Mikey. We need an escape, like, NOW."
"Donnie's on it," comes a second voice on the comms. "What floor are you on?"
"Five," he responds quickly, ducking from another mutant's attack. "I think we've been made. There were cages filled with animals and they all got released at once!"
"I'm coming now!" Donnie shouts. Raph can hear his hovershell whirr in the background, wind start whipping past the mic as he speeds towards them.
"Leo, where are you?"
"I just came from the basement. You guys will never believe what I found --"
"You can tell us on the way home, but we have to go NOW!!"
For a moment, Raph forgets that he isn't the leader anymore. For a moment, he's in charge and it's all on him to get them out. He's in control of everything and doesn't have to wait on Leo to make a self-sacrificing decision to solve everything like he tends to do.
"Okay, boss man. I'll meet you all outside in the turtle tank."
Raph sighs with relief.
"Got it. Donnie, ETA?"
"Right behind you -- oh what in the name of unholy science is that?!"
Raph turns around to see Donnie slowly coming to a halt, hovering over Mikey. The box turtle has defeated the boar at this point, slamming it hard into a wall until the boar slumped with a groan onto the floor.
"Is... is that Mikey --"
"Donnie, just find us an exit!" Raph shouts as he grabs Mikey, who doesn’t bite him again but struggles against his hold until he sees who's holding him.
"R-right... right... Uh, take a left, that window leads directly to the alley where Leo is waiting..."
The intercom buzzes again.
"What did Donnie say? What's going on with Mikey?!" Leo asks, his voice in a panic.
"Get the tank started, we're coming to you."
"But what about Mikey?!"
"He's here with us."
"Why doesn't he respond--"
Raph crashes through the window before he can answer, landing with a thud against the top of the tank. Mikey howls loudly, whining in fear and scratching at Raph's arms to let him go. He sees Donnie for the first time and makes a feeble chirp.
Donnie stares wide-eyed at him, mouth open and hands trembling.
Raph scrambles into the tank, holding Mikey tightly. Donnie follows after him, silently staring at his baby brother.
"There you guys are!" Leo yells, a wave of relief rushing over him. "I was starting to get really --"
He sees him.
"What... what happened to..."
"Just drive," Raph orders, holding Mikey close. "Just get us out of here."
Leo nods slowly, turning to Donnie. He receives the silent command and navigates the tank, speeding away.

THANKKKKKK YOUUUUUUUUUUUU
Tumblr media
I’m probably going to add to this eventually if that’s okay
For you, @phoebepheebsphibs ~
Raph barges through the fifth lab door of the day. It’s sickening that this place has so many areas filled with experimented on animals. The sweetest, most innocent ones he could think of turned into violent, bloodthirsty monsters.
And Mikey was trapped here somewhere with them.
He runs past several cages. Claws and arms poke out from them, attempting to draw his blood. He’d like to help them, but there’s not much he could do, and Mikey takes priority above all else.
Calling out for his brother doesn’t garner much response. He probably wouldn’t be able to hear him over all the sounds each mutated animal is making.
Roars.
Growls.
Yowling.
……Whimpering?
He stops in front of a cage, seeing something cowering in the corner. It was too dark to see it in there.
Raph thinks that this must be an animal they haven’t mutated yet. Maybe it would be alright to help just this one.
He breaks the lock off and carefully opens the cage. The whimpering stops and suddenly he’s lunged at. Raph barely has any time to react or even scream from how fast it moves.
A squeal of fear escapes from his mouth. Luckily, his kindness isn’t rewarded with a mauling. The animal clambers onto his shoulder and perches on top of the back of his shell.
There’s no opportunity for him to even see it.
He’s guessing it’s friendly, though? It hasn’t spilled any of his blood yet. Raph sighs. The place it’s taking is Mikey’s.
“Alright, you can stay up there, but I need to go find my brother.”
The animal lets out a confused noise.
Raph holds onto it like he always does with his brothers when they’re hitching a ride on his shell and begins walking.
“His name is Mikey. He’s got spots and the biggest smile you’ll ever see. Mikey’s also super talented. Kid can bake, draw, and dance better than anyone.”
The animal squeezes him slightly. Raph can feel it wagging a tail. He wonders why it would get excited about what he’s saying but he knows he’d probably never get an answer.
“I love him. A lot. I’d do anything for him. We used to be even closer, but….older brothers aren’t so impressive to younger ones when they’re way more…..talented. Anything I do to protect him just seems like I’m tryna to be annoying to him. It’s fine because I love him and I won’t stop doing it, but I….just miss being cool.”
He feels something wet on the back of his neck and shudders.
“Ew! Did you just drool on me!? Come on!”
Sad, pitiful noises make him realize that he guessed wrong.
“Hey, sorry for saying all that….you’ve probably been through enough already.”
The animal rubs his cheek on the top of Raph’s head.
“Don’t worry about it. I’m not sad. Not as long as I find him.”
The animal rubs more as a response.
Raph smiles and continues walking. As he does, the animal begins trying to turn him a certain way. It’s confusing, but then he starts to think that maybe it knows where Mikey is.
Or he does until it leads him to an exit.
“I can’t go without my brother. Here, you get out, you’ve probably been trapped long enough.” He attempts to get the animal off but it refuses.
“Listen, I can’t-“
He suddenly hears the sound of a bunch of cages opening.
Change of plans.
He takes off running with the animal still held tight on his shoulders. Either the other animals are fast or he’s slow because they’re catching up fast.
The animal on his shoulders wriggles around a lot.
“I can’t let you down! They’re still coming!”
The animal doesn’t stop, eventually worming its way out of his grip. It lands behind him so he whirls around to finally get a good look.
No.
He can’t have been so stupid.
The animal now in front of him has claws, glowing red eyes, and spots.
“M-Mikey….?”
Mikey smiles sadly, shyly, as if he’d been caught stealing cookies instead of pretending he wasn’t mutated and hiding it.
Then, he turns to face the other mutated animals.
“No! MIKEY!” Raph screams.

Some scenes of Red Rover bc they haven't been able to leave my mind since I read them, plus some doodles bc I love this boys so much
Double mutated Raph lives in a special place in my heart ❤️also his relationship with Mikey. All their interactions are very cute and that lazy river moment might be my favorite
One and Purple would actually get along, I don't know how or why but trust me, I can feel it in my guts. They'll make each other worst tho.
A few more unfinished sketches under the cut
Edit: here's the link to AO3
this boys are from @red-rover-au

There's a strange DOUBLE LILY growing in the garden.
Is it some kind of omen?? Maybe.

It's a dark and stormy evening.
You've just settled down for the night, when you hear something scratching at your door. It's probably just the wind.
The scratching continues.
Maybe it's the neighbor's dog?
You open the door and see this weird-looking wet cat whimpering in the rain.
It looks lost...
What do you do?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
After having a quick panic attack from seeing the bizarre creature outside my home, the adrenaline and fear drains from my body, and I calm down. I take a much closer look at the strange little thing, being cautious to not overcrowd it or scare it. If it's anything like my cat, it would probably want to get acquainted with me via smell first. I hold my hand out and allow the small thing to sniff me, letting it get used to the many scents of my cat's fur, my hand sanitizer, (cranberry scented), and a slight charred smell from burning my hands while lighting a candle in my room. As he sniffs I see the many scars adorning its poor face, as well as the vibrant red of its irises. Poor thing.. What even happened to you?? Just as the creature was beginning to calm, his little shoulders finally lowering and the spikes on his back flattening out to his.. shell? a harsh flash of lightning near by CRACKED in the sky, making the poor thing flinch something awful. I slowly place my hand on top of his little head, a sweet churr sounding from him at the touch, and motion to my wide open door.
"Come here, little guy.. It's a bit too dangerous to enjoy the rain right now, don't ya think?"
