  "writing": "Mikey absent mindedly traced his finger down the center line of Donnie’s plastron. “I think this will be the last night for me this season. To be honest I could have gone either way tonight.”\n\n“Okay,” Donnie replied, half asleep.  \n\n“I figured I might as well,” Mikey continued, shifting so that his beak was nuzzled against Donnie’s neck. “It will be a year before I get to do this again and it feels so good.” He took in a deep breath and let it out slowly. “I envy you and Raph. I’ll never be able to find love like the two of you have.”\n\n“Oh, Mikey,” Donnie soothed as he turned to hold his brother tighter. He didn’t know what else to say. What could he say? Mikey was right. The chances of him fining the love that he craved so much were slim to none. To say otherwise would be a lie.  \n\nHaving Mikey join in their relationship wasn’t an option either. It wasn’t that Raph or Don would be against having an open relationship with their brother. It was because Mikey wasn’t attracted to them. He was attracted to women, human women, and there weren’t too many of those who would be willing to date a mutated turtle. Not sane ones anyway. \n\nMikey softly cried as Donnie embraced him. “I’m sorry,” Mikey mumbled against Donnie after a while. “I didn’t mean to unload that on you.”\n\n“Don’t be sorry,” Donnie said, running his hand down Mikey’s back. He could still feel the scars of the crack in his shell from when Krang had him in the bear hug. “I am here for you, whenever you need to talk or unload.”\n\n“Thanks, Donnie,” Mikey sighed. \n\nA soft but urgent sounding knock at the door had the two of them sitting up. Mikey quickly wiped the tears from his eyes as the door cracked open. “April and Casey are here,” Raph whispered and then closed the door again. \n\nMikey was up in an instant, scrambling to get his clothes on. “Nononono…. April can’t know about this. It’s bad enough she’s with Casey.” He paused for a moment while he adjusted his pants and looked at Don. “No offence.”\n\nDonnie chuckled and shook his head as he got up off the bed. “None taken. I don’t want her knowing about this either.” He grabbed his pants off the back of a nearby chair and slipped them on, pulling the suspenders over his shoulders to keep them in place. “I’m sure Raph and Leo are coming up with something to explain why you’re in here. So let them lead the conversation when you get out there.”\n\n“Got it,” Mikey said, nodding his head. After tying on his mask, he made his way to the door. “Do you think we should leave together or can I go out first.”\n\nDonnie waved him out. “You go. I’ll be out in a minute.”\n\n“Kay,” Mikey replied softly, opening the door. “Don’t be long. I don’t want to be stuck trying to answer questions I have no idea how to answer.” He stepped out of the lab and any sign of distress was gone. “Angel cakes,” he said joyfully, closing the door behind him. “What brings you here at this late hour?”\n\nDonnie could hear April reply but her voice was too soft for him to make out what she was saying through the door. Taking a few deep breaths, Donnie composed himself. Unlike Mikey, he was still deeply affected by the season. He had to push all those desires down before he could go out and stand next to his brothers. \n\nOnce he was under control, Donnie tied on his mask, put on his glasses and stepped out of the lab. “There you are,” April said as soon as she saw him. Holding up a piece of paper, she added, “Here is the name of the specialist and her three assistants. As agreed, she won’t be contacted until she has been cleared with you.”\n\n“That took longer than I thought it would,” Donnie admitted, accepting the slip of paper from April. \n\nApril shrugged. “They wanted to get it right and find the best person for the job.”\n\nDonnie read the name on the paper, “Doctor Grace Tandum. I’ll look her up right now.”\n\n“Should we come back later?” Casey asked. “In the morning, maybe?”\n\nDonnie shook his head. “This will only take a minute.” His fingers flew over the keyboards on his computer array, typing in the names of all four doctors and setting his systems to search out everything on them. He scanned each screen as the information popped up, looking for any warning signs that any of them could not be trusted. \n\nAfter a while he turned to Casey an April. “I can’t find any reason not to trust them. You can tell Chief Vincent that I approve of her selection.”\n\n“Great,” April smiled. “I’m eager to get all of this started. It will ease my mind knowing that if anything were to happen to you guys, there is a certified doctor ready to take care of you.”\n\n“I couldn’t agree more,” Splinter stated as he entered the lair. “Hello, April, is good to see you again.” He walked up to give her a warm embrace. “And you, Casey,” he said holding out his hand. \n\n“Sadly this isn’t a social visit,” April said. “We’re here on business.”\n\n“Sorry we haven’t come by sooner,” Casey added, shaking Splinter’s hand. “We’ve been busy with the increase in organized crime lately. These goons call themselves the Purple Dragons. It’s a stupid name if you ask me.”\n\n“I’m sure they ain’t nothing you can’t handle,” Raph said, patting Casey on the back. \n\n“There was so much grammatically wrong with that statement,” Donnie stated as a matter of fact. Raph simply scoffed in response, not caring one way or the other. \n\n“Well,” Casey said. “It’s getting late and we gotta get back to it. We’ll let Chief Vincent know that you approve her selection as soon as we see her.”\n\nThey said their goodbyes and saw themselves out. When Splinter was sure they were gone he turned to his sons. “Do I need to leave again?”\n\n“I don’t think so,” Raph answered, looking at the others. “They only just got here a few minutes before you did. They didn’t really interrupt anything.”\n\n“Good,” Splinter said with a slight nod. “I’m tired. I’m going to bed.”\n\n“Goodnight,” the boys said in unison.\n\nDonatello waited for Splinter’s door to close before saying, “I could actually go for another round before bed.”\n\n“I get to be with him all year,” Raph said with a smile. “If one of you wants to take him up on his offer, I’m fine with it.”\n\n“I’ll go,” Leo said and started towards the lab. “It hasn’t fully left my system yet either.”\n\n“Okay,” Donnie said, following after him. He had not expected Leonardo to be the one to accept the offer. But he was glad he did. Donnie wanted rutting sex, and nothing overly passionate. Out of his brothers, Leo was the best one to satisfy those desires. No kissing, not cuddling, no foreplay, Leo doesn’t waste time with anything else and gets right to the sex, all instinct.  \n\nThey entered the lab, closing the door behind them and immediately started to undress. Donatello couldn’t get the contraceptive in fast enough and he could tell by the way his brother was pacing that Leo was eager to get started as well. \n\nAfter filling the inside of the contraceptive with a generous amount of lubricant, Donnie bent over the desk and lifted his tail. Leo moved behind him, grabbed his hips and pressed inside, letting out a deep churr as he did. Once imbedded he leaned over so his plastron would scrape against the dome of Donnie’s carapace. The sensation drew a satisfied moan from the both of them. \n\nLeo had set a vigorous pace, quickly brining Donnie to completion. He pressed his forehead to the cool surface of the desk while the wave of endorphins rushed over him. It was a sweet release that lingered and Leo lasted throughout the glorious felling, stimulating him the whole time. Just as Donnie’s orgasm started to subside, Leo climaxed, pressing in as deep as he could go. \n\nThey stayed locked together for a few more minutes to allow Leo to relish the after effects. Content to stay where he was for as long as it was needed, Don simply closed his eyes and relaxed. It wasn’t until Leo pulled back that Donnie moved. He looked over his shoulder in time to see Leo flop down on the bed, his chest heaving as he looked up at the ceiling. \n\nHis legs were parted in and attempt to cool himself, and Donnie could see his still flared tip protruding from his tail. “You’re going to have the doctor do something to help prevent more eggs, aren’t you,” Leo said, without moving. It wasn’t a question. \n\n“I’m going to ask her about it and go over my options,” Donnie replied as he made his way over to the sink. \n\nLeo turned his head to look at Don. “Do you think, once you have the procedure, you will lose your drive during the season?”\n\nDonnie shrugged and removed the contraceptive. “I don’t know. Even if I do, it doesn’t mean I’ll stop. You guys need the release.”\n\n“I can’t do this with you if it becomes an obligation,” Leo stated. \n\nDonnie checked the device for any leaks. Satisfied that there weren’t any, he headed over to the bed and sat next to Leo. “I love you,” he said, leaving no room for doubt. “Having sex with you guys was never the problem. I enjoy it. It was always what came after that I hated.” Placing his hand on Leo’s cheek he looked into his brother’s eyes. “I will admit that, throughout the year, when I’m not in season, there are times I wish I could be with you and Mikey, that we could all be together. In a way, I guess I’m taking advantage of you, to get what I want.”\n\n“You’re not taking advantage.” Turning his head slightly, Leo kissed the heel of Donnie’s hand. “I love you too. I wish I could give you what you want, it’s just….”\n\n“I understand,” Donnie interrupted. “Just keep coming to me whenever you need it. Because I like being with you.”\n\n“Deal,” Leo said with a smile. \n\n“Good,” Donnie said, patting Leo on the chest before standing up. “Now stop worrying about it.”\n\nIt was another few weeks before April and Casey returned to inform the guys that their meeting with Doctor Tandum has been arranged. They were told the when and the where and were assured that all precautions had been taken to insure their safety. \n\nDonnie’s stomach was in knots as they made their way to the designated location. He spent the long walk through the sewers rehearsing, in his head, what he was going to say. It was still hard for him to admit out loud but if he wanted the help, it was something he was going to have to do. \n\nLeonardo led the way out of the sewers, scanning the area for any sign of people. When he was sure that it was clear, he exited the sewers and ran for the shadows. The others followed, Donnie being the last one out. His mind was on other things and his brothers knew it so it was better that they take the lead.\n\nChief Vincent was waiting for them, standing outside the door of a large building. Casey and April had offered to meet them there as well, but Leonardo had told them that it wouldn’t be necessary. They trusted the chief and that she wouldn’t do anything that would put them in danger. \n\nThey kept to the shadows until they were close to the building and Chief Vincent. Once again, Leo stepped out first to make their presence known. Chief Vincent jumped a little when Leo appeared at her side. “How can someone so big move around so quietly?”\n\nLeo smiled. “We’re ninjas.”\n\nA humored smile spread across the chief’s face. “I assume your brothers are hidden somewhere back there.” She opened the door and indicated for them to enter. “The doctor and her team are waiting, eagerly to meet you.”\n\nOn his signal, the others followed Leo into the building, with Chief Vincent following in after them. “Follow me,” she said as she passed through them on her way down one of the hallways. \n\nDonatello looked around as they walked, taking note that they were in a research facility. They passed various exam rooms and labs before reaching a waiting room. The four humans in the room went slack jawed and wide eyed when the four turtles entered. \n\nDoctor Tandum was a short, heavier set woman with an olive complexion and short black hair. She managed to get herself composed before her collogues and stepped forward for introductions. “I am Doctor Grace Tandum and these are my assistants Donald Eagar, Mary Solice, and Andrew Fink. We are all testudinologists and have worked together on several projects. We are eager to learn all that we can from the four of you…. All under the strictest confidentiality of course. No papers will be written by us as long as you are kept a secret.”\n\n“You’re a what?” Mikey asked, tilting his head to the side. “Test-a-dino-list?”\n\n“Testudinologist,” Donnie answered. “They specialize in turtles.”\n\nDoctor Tandum smiled. “That is correct. You must be Donatello. Chief Vincent told me you were the smart one in the group. I look forward to long conversations with you…, but on another day, when we have more time. For now, we have some physicals to take care of.” She looked at each of them. “Who’s going first?”\n\n“I’ll go,” Leo offered.\n\n“Follow me,” the doctor said, leading the way into one of the rooms. \n\nThe four doctors spent a good forty minutes with Leonardo while the others waited quietly. Well, as quietly as Mikey would let it be. He fidgeted and looked like he wanted to say something but would then close his mouth and look away. Chief Vincent was sitting in the room with them. So Donnie supposed that Mikey couldn’t think of a topic to discuss that wouldn’t give away too much personal information. \n\nLeo emerged from the exam room, sucking on a sucker and with a bandage on his arm. “Mostly painless,” he stated around his candy. “But thorough. They checked everything.”\n\n“I want a sucker.” Mikey hopped out of his seat and headed towards the room. “I’m going next.”\n\nRaph and Leo made some small talk but Donnie stayed out of it. His brothers seemed to understand that he wasn’t in the mood for conversation and they didn’t attempt to bring him into their conversation. \n\nAnother forty minutes passed and Mikey emerged, happily sucking on his candy. “It wasn’t so bad.” He plopped down in the seat next to Leo. “They let me see what I look like on the inside. It was so cool.”\n\n“I guess it’s my turn.” Knowing that Donnie wanted to go last, Raph stood and headed for the exam room. \n\nDonnie watched the clock as the forty minutes seemed to rush by. It would soon be his turn and his heart pounded. When Raph emerged, popping the sucker in his mouth, he gave Donnie a reassuring smile. \n\nWith a lump in his throat and a knot in his stomach, Donnie got up and headed for the exam room. As soon as he entered, Doctor Tandum directed him to metal plate on the floor. “Take off your clothes and get up on the scale. I must say that I am impressed with your work,” she said with a smile as he did as she had asked. “Raphael said that you were the one to straighten his teeth. And you mended his and Michelangelo’s shells. I’m sure your glasses are the exact prescription you need as well.”\n\n“I do what I can for my family,” Donnie said, feeling himself flush a little. \n\nShe took note of his weight and height and then gestured for him to sit up on the exam table. “Do you have any concerns you would like to discuss with my while you’re here?” she asked as she checked Donnie’s neck. She then placed her fingers on the center of his throat and said, “Swallow.”\n\nDonnie did as he was instructed before answering. “There are a few things I need to discuss with you.”\n\n“Alright,” she replied, prompting him to continue as she reached for her sphygmomanometer and stethoscope. Donnie took a deep breath in an attempt to calm himself as she took his blood pressure. He tried to think of what to say but everything he had rehearsed had disappeared. A long silence stretched out between them. After a moment she looked up at him and asked, “Is it something bad?”\n\n“It’s just that…,” his throat closed up on him and he had to clear it before he could continue. He tried several times but he couldn’t maintain eye contact with her. So he looked down at the floor. “Physically, I’m female. But I identify as male.”\n\n“Oh,” was her reply. “Alright. I can work with that. If it’s something you want kept secret, I can do that. Your medical files will be sealed.”\n\n“I have a clutch of possibly fertile eggs inside me,” Donnie continued. “My brothers and I go into season every year and we are compelled to mate.” He still couldn’t look at her and his heart was pounding. “I say ‘possible’ because I managed to develop an internal contraceptive device last year but, as you know, turtles store sperm.”\n\nShe stopped her exam and pulled up a seat. “Do you have children at home you need me to look at?”\n\nDonnie shook his head. “The eggs I lay never make it to term.”\n\n“I am so sorry,” she whispered, placing her hand on his. “I’ll do what I can to help.”\n\nHe glanced at her for a moment and then looked back down at the floor. “After I lay this clutch, I want you to remove my ovaries.”\n\nShe nodded her head. “I can do that.”\n\n“Thank you,” Donnie replied as he felt a weight lift off his shoulders. \n",

It will ease my mind knowing that if anything were to happen to you guys, there is a certified doctor ready to take care of you.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I couldn&rsquo;t agree more,&rdquo; Splinter stated as he entered the lair. &ldquo;Hello, April, is good to see you again.&rdquo; He walked up to give her a warm embrace. &ldquo;And you, Casey,&rdquo; he said holding out his hand. <br /><br />&ldquo;Sadly this isn&rsquo;t a social visit,&rdquo; April said. &ldquo;We&rsquo;re here on business.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Sorry we haven&rsquo;t come by sooner,&rdquo; Casey added, shaking Splinter&rsquo;s hand. &ldquo;We&rsquo;ve been busy with the increase in organized crime lately. These goons call themselves the Purple Dragons. It&rsquo;s a stupid name if you ask me.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I&rsquo;m sure they ain&rsquo;t nothing you can&rsquo;t handle,&rdquo; Raph said, patting Casey on the back. <br /><br />&ldquo;There was so much grammatically wrong with that statement,&rdquo; Donnie stated as a matter of fact. Raph simply scoffed in response, not caring one way or the other. <br /><br />&ldquo;Well,&rdquo; Casey said. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s getting late and we gotta get back to it. We&rsquo;ll let Chief Vincent know that you approve her selection as soon as we see her.&rdquo;<br /><br />They said their goodbyes and saw themselves out. When Splinter was sure they were gone he turned to his sons. &ldquo;Do I need to leave again?&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I don&rsquo;t think so,&rdquo; Raph answered, looking at the others. &ldquo;They only just got here a few minutes before you did. They didn&rsquo;t really interrupt anything.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Good,&rdquo; Splinter said with a slight nod. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m tired. I&rsquo;m going to bed.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Goodnight,&rdquo; the boys said in unison.<br /><br />Donatello waited for Splinter&rsquo;s door to close before saying, &ldquo;I could actually go for another round before bed.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I get to be with him all year,&rdquo; Raph said with a smile. &ldquo;If one of you wants to take him up on his offer, I&rsquo;m fine with it.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I&rsquo;ll go,&rdquo; Leo said and started towards the lab. &ldquo;It hasn&rsquo;t fully left my system yet either.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Okay,&rdquo; Donnie said, following after him. He had not expected Leonardo to be the one to accept the offer. But he was glad he did. Donnie wanted rutting sex, and nothing overly passionate. Out of his brothers, Leo was the best one to satisfy those desires. No kissing, not cuddling, no foreplay, Leo doesn&rsquo;t waste time with anything else and gets right to the sex, all instinct.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /><br />They entered the lab, closing the door behind them and immediately started to undress. Donatello couldn&rsquo;t get the contraceptive in fast enough and he could tell by the way his brother was pacing that Leo was eager to get started as well. <br /><br />After filling the inside of the contraceptive with a generous amount of lubricant, Donnie bent over the desk and lifted his tail. Leo moved behind him, grabbed his hips and pressed inside, letting out a deep churr as he did. Once imbedded he leaned over so his plastron would scrape against the dome of Donnie&rsquo;s carapace. The sensation drew a satisfied moan from the both of them. <br /><br />Leo had set a vigorous pace, quickly brining Donnie to completion. He pressed his forehead to the cool surface of the desk while the wave of endorphins rushed over him. It was a sweet release that lingered and Leo lasted throughout the glorious felling, stimulating him the whole time. Just as Donnie&rsquo;s orgasm started to subside, Leo climaxed, pressing in as deep as he could go. <br /><br />They stayed locked together for a few more minutes to allow Leo to relish the after effects. Content to stay where he was for as long as it was needed, Don simply closed his eyes and relaxed. It wasn&rsquo;t until Leo pulled back that Donnie moved. He looked over his shoulder in time to see Leo flop down on the bed, his chest heaving as he looked up at the ceiling. <br /><br />His legs were parted in and attempt to cool himself, and Donnie could see his still flared tip protruding from his tail. &ldquo;You&rsquo;re going to have the doctor do something to help prevent more eggs, aren&rsquo;t you,&rdquo; Leo said, without moving. It wasn&rsquo;t a question. <br /><br />&ldquo;I&rsquo;m going to ask her about it and go over my options,&rdquo; Donnie replied as he made his way over to the sink. <br /><br />Leo turned his head to look at Don. &ldquo;Do you think, once you have the procedure, you will lose your drive during the season?&rdquo;<br /><br />Donnie shrugged and removed the contraceptive. &ldquo;I don&rsquo;t know. Even if I do, it doesn&rsquo;t mean I&rsquo;ll stop. You guys need the release.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I can&rsquo;t do this with you if it becomes an obligation,&rdquo; Leo stated. <br /><br />Donnie checked the device for any leaks. Satisfied that there weren&rsquo;t any, he headed over to the bed and sat next to Leo. &ldquo;I love you,&rdquo; he said, leaving no room for doubt. &ldquo;Having sex with you guys was never the problem. I enjoy it. It was always what came after that I hated.&rdquo; Placing his hand on Leo&rsquo;s cheek he looked into his brother&rsquo;s eyes. &ldquo;I will admit that, throughout the year, when I&rsquo;m not in season, there are times I wish I could be with you and Mikey, that we could all be together. In a way, I guess I&rsquo;m taking advantage of you, to get what I want.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;You&rsquo;re not taking advantage.&rdquo; Turning his head slightly, Leo kissed the heel of Donnie&rsquo;s hand. &ldquo;I love you too. I wish I could give you what you want, it&rsquo;s just&hellip;.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I understand,&rdquo; Donnie interrupted. &ldquo;Just keep coming to me whenever you need it. Because I like being with you.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Deal,&rdquo; Leo said with a smile. <br /><br />&ldquo;Good,&rdquo; Donnie said, patting Leo on the chest before standing up. &ldquo;Now stop worrying about it.&rdquo;<br /><br />It was another few weeks before April and Casey returned to inform the guys that their meeting with Doctor Tandum has been arranged. They were told the when and the where and were assured that all precautions had been taken to insure their safety. <br /><br />Donnie&rsquo;s stomach was in knots as they made their way to the designated location. He spent the long walk through the sewers rehearsing, in his head, what he was going to say. It was still hard for him to admit out loud but if he wanted the help, it was something he was going to have to do. <br /><br />Leonardo led the way out of the sewers, scanning the area for any sign of people. When he was sure that it was clear, he exited the sewers and ran for the shadows. The others followed, Donnie being the last one out. His mind was on other things and his brothers knew it so it was better that they take the lead.<br /><br />Chief Vincent was waiting for them, standing outside the door of a large building. Casey and April had offered to meet them there as well, but Leonardo had told them that it wouldn&rsquo;t be necessary. They trusted the chief and that she wouldn&rsquo;t do anything that would put them in danger. <br /><br />They kept to the shadows until they were close to the building and Chief Vincent. Once again, Leo stepped out first to make their presence known. Chief Vincent jumped a little when Leo appeared at her side. &ldquo;How can someone so big move around so quietly?&rdquo;<br /><br />Leo smiled. &ldquo;We&rsquo;re ninjas.&rdquo;<br /><br />A humored smile spread across the chief&rsquo;s face. &ldquo;I assume your brothers are hidden somewhere back there.&rdquo; She opened the door and indicated for them to enter. &ldquo;The doctor and her team are waiting, eagerly to meet you.&rdquo;<br /><br />On his signal, the others followed Leo into the building, with Chief Vincent following in after them. &ldquo;Follow me,&rdquo; she said as she passed through them on her way down one of the hallways. <br /><br />Donatello looked around as they walked, taking note that they were in a research facility. They passed various exam rooms and labs before reaching a waiting room. The four humans in the room went slack jawed and wide eyed when the four turtles entered. <br /><br />Doctor Tandum was a short, heavier set woman with an olive complexion and short black hair. She managed to get herself composed before her collogues and stepped forward for introductions. &ldquo;I am Doctor Grace Tandum and these are my assistants Donald Eagar, Mary Solice, and Andrew Fink. We are all testudinologists and have worked together on several projects. We are eager to learn all that we can from the four of you&hellip;. All under the strictest confidentiality of course. No papers will be written by us as long as you are kept a secret.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;You&rsquo;re a what?&rdquo; Mikey asked, tilting his head to the side. &ldquo;Test-a-dino-list?&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Testudinologist,&rdquo; Donnie answered. &ldquo;They specialize in turtles.&rdquo;<br /><br />Doctor Tandum smiled. &ldquo;That is correct. You must be Donatello. Chief Vincent told me you were the smart one in the group. I look forward to long conversations with you&hellip;, but on another day, when we have more time. For now, we have some physicals to take care of.&rdquo; She looked at each of them. &ldquo;Who&rsquo;s going first?&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I&rsquo;ll go,&rdquo; Leo offered.<br /><br />&ldquo;Follow me,&rdquo; the doctor said, leading the way into one of the rooms. <br /><br />The four doctors spent a good forty minutes with Leonardo while the others waited quietly. Well, as quietly as Mikey would let it be. He fidgeted and looked like he wanted to say something but would then close his mouth and look away. Chief Vincent was sitting in the room with them. So Donnie supposed that Mikey couldn&rsquo;t think of a topic to discuss that wouldn&rsquo;t give away too much personal information. <br /><br />Leo emerged from the exam room, sucking on a sucker and with a bandage on his arm. &ldquo;Mostly painless,&rdquo; he stated around his candy. &ldquo;But thorough. They checked everything.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I want a sucker.&rdquo; Mikey hopped out of his seat and headed towards the room. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m going next.&rdquo;<br /><br />Raph and Leo made some small talk but Donnie stayed out of it. His brothers seemed to understand that he wasn&rsquo;t in the mood for conversation and they didn&rsquo;t attempt to bring him into their conversation. <br /><br />Another forty minutes passed and Mikey emerged, happily sucking on his candy. &ldquo;It wasn&rsquo;t so bad.&rdquo; He plopped down in the seat next to Leo. &ldquo;They let me see what I look like on the inside. It was so cool.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I guess it&rsquo;s my turn.&rdquo; Knowing that Donnie wanted to go last, Raph stood and headed for the exam room. <br /><br />Donnie watched the clock as the forty minutes seemed to rush by. It would soon be his turn and his heart pounded. When Raph emerged, popping the sucker in his mouth, he gave Donnie a reassuring smile. <br /><br />With a lump in his throat and a knot in his stomach, Donnie got up and headed for the exam room. As soon as he entered, Doctor Tandum directed him to metal plate on the floor. &ldquo;Take off your clothes and get up on the scale. I must say that I am impressed with your work,&rdquo; she said with a smile as he did as she had asked. &ldquo;Raphael said that you were the one to straighten his teeth. And you mended his and Michelangelo&rsquo;s shells. I&rsquo;m sure your glasses are the exact prescription you need as well.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I do what I can for my family,&rdquo; Donnie said, feeling himself flush a little. <br /><br />She took note of his weight and height and then gestured for him to sit up on the exam table. &ldquo;Do you have any concerns you would like to discuss with my while you&rsquo;re here?&rdquo; she asked as she checked Donnie&rsquo;s neck. She then placed her fingers on the center of his throat and said, &ldquo;Swallow.&rdquo;<br /><br />Donnie did as he was instructed before answering. &ldquo;There are a few things I need to discuss with you.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Alright,&rdquo; she replied, prompting him to continue as she reached for her sphygmomanometer and stethoscope. Donnie took a deep breath in an attempt to calm himself as she took his blood pressure. He tried to think of what to say but everything he had rehearsed had disappeared. A long silence stretched out between them. After a moment she looked up at him and asked, &ldquo;Is it something bad?&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;It&rsquo;s just that&hellip;,&rdquo; his throat closed up on him and he had to clear it before he could continue. He tried several times but he couldn&rsquo;t maintain eye contact with her. So he looked down at the floor. &ldquo;Physically, I&rsquo;m female. But I identify as male.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Oh,&rdquo; was her reply. &ldquo;Alright. I can work with that. If it&rsquo;s something you want kept secret, I can do that. Your medical files will be sealed.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I have a clutch of possibly fertile eggs inside me,&rdquo; Donnie continued. &ldquo;My brothers and I go into season every year and we are compelled to mate.&rdquo; He still couldn&rsquo;t look at her and his heart was pounding. &ldquo;I say &lsquo;possible&rsquo; because I managed to develop an internal contraceptive device last year but, as you know, turtles store sperm.&rdquo;<br /><br />She stopped her exam and pulled up a seat. &ldquo;Do you have children at home you need me to look at?&rdquo;<br /><br />Donnie shook his head. &ldquo;The eggs I lay never make it to term.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;I am so sorry,&rdquo; she whispered, placing her hand on his. &ldquo;I&rsquo;ll do what I can to help.&rdquo;<br /><br />He glanced at her for a moment and then looked back down at the floor. &ldquo;After I lay this clutch, I want you to remove my ovaries.&rdquo;<br /><br />She nodded her head. &ldquo;I can do that.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Thank you,&rdquo; Donnie replied as he felt a weight lift off his shoulders. <br /></span>",
