ROTTMNT Separation au Part 5
Donnie always felt like he was missing a piece of himself. Ever since he could remember. He didn't know how to explain it, it was just there. He hadn't told anyone, it would just be adding stress for no reason, and they already had enough to deal with. And it was always there
So when he snuck out last night, he hadn't expected to finally feel whole. Donnie just liked to get some peace and quiet sometimes, get away from the noise. After all, he lives with an energetic younger brother, an over protective and self-sacrificing older brother and a 'trying-to-be-cool' type dad who definitely keeping secrets.
He was up on a rooftop looking out towards the sunrise, enjoying the view when someone spoke behind him, "Come here often?" Donnie turned around and almost fainted from surprise.
The voice belonged to a mutant turtle, who wasn't family. It appeared to be a male red eared slider, with his unique red markings that reminded Donnie of a clowns face.
"Y-you-your a-a mutant... like us?" He didn't know how to react, this could be their dead brother. "Us?" The slider asked, "I only see one of mutant, unless they're invisible," He chuckled softly. "Ah, sorry, I meant me and brothers, but I should've said me 'cause-" Donnie started, "Don't worry, I know what you meant, I'm Leo by the way." Leo sat down next to Donnie. "I'm Donatello, you can call me Donnie though,"
Leo smiled, "Nice name, you're named after that renaissance Italian sculptor aren't you?" Donnie couldn't say anything, so he just nodded, with the biggest smile on his face, no one ever knew who he was named after.
"Meet here tomorrow...same time?" Donnie asked. Leo nodded before standing up and swinging his blades through the air. He managed to open a portal before chuckling at his friend's reaction and leaving Donnie alone again.
