RiseTMNT x Reader

A/N: I really enjoyed writing this request. It made me think about playing Minecraft with my siblings growing up. I wasn't sure which version of TMNT you wanted so I picked probably what I would imagine being the most entertaining while playing Minecraft! I hope you enjoy the chaos that ensues!

You woke up this morning knowing good and well it would be a bad day. You had an exam at school you had been putting all of your energy into studying. Already sucking at the subject, you had asked Donnie for help weeks prior to the test. You left the lair last night a little too late and felt motivated and ready. Now that the day had actually arrived you wanted nothing more than to avoid failure all together.

Slipping out of bed and going through the motions of getting ready, you began your treacherous walk to school. On the way to school a car drove past the sidewalk you were walking on and drove into the pond beside you. Water sinking into your clothes was one thing, But your socks? The sensation made your eye twitch in anger.

 From then on, the day plummeted in what you could only describe as something that would only happen in a reality TV show. You had to be the joke. Where were the cameras? You stepped into school soaking wet. From the hall you got nothing but side eyes or pity looks from onlookers. You made it to class as the bell rung and your teacher that you swear had it out for you sent you to get a pass.

Going to the office your shoes continued to make a squeaking sound. Each step you took made you feel like shriveling up as water droplets squirmed around in your shoe.  As you got your pass from an uninterested receptionist you made your way back to your seat to find the teacher already gave out the test.

Your shoes continued to squeak and your teacher berated you for your tardiness and distraction. Apologizing, you went to your seat and sighed. A couple of minutes of staring at the paper that held what had to be the worlds hardest questions you felt the kid beside you poke you with a sheet of paper.

They were asking you to pass it. You knew you would get in trouble if you indulged. And as luck would have it the teacher saw the scene go down first hand.

You squirmed in your seat. You couldn’t stop thinking of how your wet socks clung to your skin: or the minor buzzing of the light fixtures above you.

Your teacher yelling at you then revoking your test was your final straw. Sitting and now waiting in silence for your fellow peers to finish the test, the school bell rang for the next period. Chatter continued down the halls and you had conversations.

You were a husk of what you normally were. At lunch you bumped your tray against another students and milk flew into your already wet clothing and made it onto your hair.

After that the rest of the day’s events went down in a blur. You smelled like mildew. People avoided you. You didn’t even remember leaving the school. You had one goal today and you couldn’t even reach that. You would have to make the test up. Maybe that was a good thing. Finally making it home you were in desperate need of a hot shower.

Feeling the hot water hit your skin brought clarity and with it you felt bits of yourself begin to surface back into consciousness.  You ruminated over the days events thankful that the weekend was now here.  

Pulling the shower curtain back You felt like a butterfly leaving your cocoon. you could see the vapors roll off your body as you walked up to the mirror.

Heaven.

You decided somewhere along getting dressed and the trek to the kitchen that you were in a major need of a pick-me-up and went straight for your favorite snack.

Feeling warm and snug in your Pjs and now relishing in your guilty pleasure of a snack that defiantly should have been more nutritious: You could practically hear Mikey and Raph scolding you. Smiling at the thought you spun on your heel and strolled peacefully to your room with snack in hand.

Plopping down at your desk with a blissful sigh, your console lit up and with it a notification from a game you used to play so much: Minecraft.

You don’t know how or when you even stopped. It had been one of your one of your favorite games growing up and it still felt that way. Nostalgia washing over you, you clicked the app to open it and immediately made a new world.

It had been so long since you played and you could see the other worlds you had made prior. Some with silly and wacky names and others with more sentimental meanings. Spawning into your world, you watched it render in around you.

You immediately got to work and punched wood. As you went through the iterative movements of gathering items, night began to fall.

Your first night consisted of you staying in a hidey-hole dug into the ground. Using your dark screen as a break, you ate your snack while every so often checking for daylight. Looking away for a moment as you indulged in your savory delight that you call a meal: four names appeared on your screen.

bootyshaker9000 Joined the game. SavageSnapperSkillz Joined the game. BluePortals0nly Joined the game.

CreativeDestructor03 Joined the game.

Looking up at your screen you gawked.

No way.

Smile spreading across your face You immediately typed in chat. Asking them how they knew you were on while casually mining the dirt around you trying to free yourself from your self-made hole.

It was still night and monsters were out. You could see Donnie tricking skeletons into shooting each other while Raph was fighting off a zombie. You ran over to Leo as you could tell he was typing and dug a hole around him.

BluePortals0nly: ooooh night time? Perfect! I see you are in desperate need of my awesome skills! Don’t worry the champ is here.

You typed out at least several responses about how you knew how to play the game very well before backspacing and simply asking how they knew you were online. This time Mikey froze and you knew he was typing. You helped punch off any mobs that came near along with Raph while Mikey continued to type.

CreativeDestructor03: Hey Y/N! I was actually fixing to go on my creative world when I saw you were online! Then I figured I it would be fun if I hopped on. I was getting ready to do so when big guy asked to watch a movie.  I told him what was up and we both figured it would be fun to play with you. After that Raph and I went to go tell Donnie and Leo and well the rest is history!

There was a creeper explosion that propelled you forward. Luckily you weren’t too close to take that much damage. You turned around to see Donnie being the cause of the explosion. You could only chuckle. Of course he was going to be a menace.

You said some quick-witted remark joking with Donnie before responding to Mikey glad that everyone joined.

Day began to show itself and everyone got to work with punching wood. While Raph was reangling sheep to start a farm. Donnie was the first to the mines claiming his riches with Leo following not far after claiming that “sharing is caring.”

It was while you and Mikey were punching wood for the house when you got a call from the discord chat. Accepting the call all the sound came with, You could hear Raph talking sweetly to the animals while Donnie was hacking in real time where all the ore was.

You said your usual greetings to let them know you were present in call and after that time became a mystery as you and the turtles delved in the game.

You weren’t sure how long it had been when you and Mikey had successfully built furnished the house. Proud of your work. You turned around to see Raph standing behind you doing the signature dance crouch as he handed you and Mikey iron armor.

It was just like Raph to try and keep everyone safe. You were fixing to tell him thank you when you and mikey got a whisper in chat:

SavageSnapperSkillz: I made this for you guys don’t tell Leo or Donnie but I got this from one of their stashes. I’m sure we are fixing to go to the nether soon and I want us to be prepared.

You and Mikey could only laugh over call. You crouched and gave your thanks when you walked out of the house to see the biggest Redstone contraption known to man with Donnie promptly standing on top. You were sure your mouth was hanging open from the sheer awe of this contraption.

You were fixing to ask what it was when Leo screamed over the call. He had unlocked the warden. Everyone began to race to his location and you went through the motions of defeating the warden. When it came to moments like this screaming and various war cries were the only thing that could be heard over call. You knew it was just a game but it was hard not to get sucked in.

It wasn’t until a couple of minutes later you could hear splinters scream radiating through the phone yelling at the boys to keep quiet. Laughing at them as you heard various apologies come through the call everyone had successfully defeated the warden.

After that everything in the game seemed to pick up. You and the turtles had gone to the nether and even made it to the end to defeat the ender dragon. All while chaos ensued along the way:

Donnie being a straight menace.

Leo thinking he’s the absolute best at the game.

Raph trying to protect everyone by making sure they have food.

Mikey finding new ways to die every night.

“DONNIE WHY IS THERE TNT UNDER THE HOUSE??!” Raph’s voice bellowed through the call.

“BECAUSE SCIENCE REQUIRES SACRIFICE!” Donnie hollered back though his yell held nothing but playful tone. His nefarious acts continued and at one point you and Donnie had teamed up to steal all Leos Ore.

There was laughter.

There was playful banter.

There were achievements made.

You even held a funeral for Raphs favorite sheep.

Time melted together and you could see the sunrise now peaking through your curtains in real life. It was then that you realized that you and the guys had stayed up all night playing. You didn’t regret it by any means. What had started out as a horrible day ended in something you would forever remember and cherish.

It made you wonder why you had stopped playing Minecraft to begin with. As you said your goodbyes and good mornings on call to half asleep turtles you wondered if that was the beauty of it.

That even when things get hard you will always have this to come back to. A world. Friends to play with. Memories to create. You powered your PC down and headed straight to bed.

Yeah.
