  "writing": "\tLeonardo nearly forgot to breathe as he stared at the young turtle in front of him.  The lost boy's damp skin gleamed; accentuating the curves of his lean muscle.  He was poised for flight; turned slightly sideways the contour of his hip caught and held Leonardo's eyes.\n\n\t``Turn around,'' the turtle said; gesturing with his hand to show Leonardo what he wanted him to do.\n\n\tDoing as he was told, Leonardo was careful to make no sudden movements.  He could hear the other turtle moving nearer, his scent quickly becoming stronger, the alluring musk almost dizzying Leonardo.\n\n\tLight footsteps stopped just outside of leaping distance.  ``Remove your swords and set them on the ground.''\n\n\tWith no hesitation, Leonardo stripped the sheaths from his back, lowering them to the packed earth as requested.  He heard the smallest puff of breath leave the other turtle's mouth and knew the younger turtle had just released some of his tension.\n\n\t``Take your hand off your shoulder and lace the fingers of both hands behind your head,'' the turtle instructed.  ``Then get down on your knees and cross your ankles.''\n\n\t``I could still grab you like this,'' Leonardo said lightly while following directions.\n\n\t``Sure,'' the turtle acknowledged, no fright in his voice, ``but you can't grab your swords before I get to you and that's all I'm worried about.''\n\n\tHis tone held an amused tolerance, as though he didn't doubt his ability to deal with anything Leonardo might attempt.\n\n\t``I won't try anything,'' Leonardo promised.\n\n\t``Darn right you won't, unless you want to fix this cut yourself,'' the orange banded turtle proclaimed in his intriguing voice.\n\n\tLeonardo remained absolutely still as he felt the other's breath ghost across his arms.  A gentle touch traced Leonardo's injury, sending a tingle of excitement traveling down the length of the elder turtle's spine.\n\n\t``Hmm, it's not too bad,'' the turtle said thoughtfully.  ``The rain washed it out and it had stopped bleeding until you grabbed at it.  But then I guess you knew that would happen.''\n\n\tLeonardo didn't mind that he'd been called out for his subterfuge by the perceptive turtle because it had worked.\n\n\t``Would you have stopped if I hadn't seemed injured?'' Leonardo asked.\n\n\t``I don't know,'' answered the other, ``would you have kept on tracking me?''\n\n\tLeonardo had a feeling the turtle would know if he lied, so he merely said, ``Yes.''\n\n\t``That's what I figured,'' the turtle said.  ``I'm thinking you're pretty good at it too.  It was easier for me to stop and get some idea of your motives than to have to go topside to get wet enough to hide my scent.''\n\n\tA brief smile flitted across Leonardo's mouth.  He should have known that if he could smell the young turtle then he in turn was giving off a scent.\n\n\t``What would you have done if my character didn't meet your standards?'' Leonardo asked.\n\n\t``What makes you think it has?'' the turtle returned.\n\n\t``You're still here,'' Leonardo answered.\n\n\tThe turtle laughed, his melodious voice running the scales and titillating Leonardo's very core.  ``I guess you're lucky I think you might be trustworthy, `cause otherwise I would have hit you with my nunchucks and put you to sleep.''\n\n\t``Without satisfying your curiosity about me?  My brothers and I are the only other mutant turtles in the world, as far we know,'' Leonardo said.\n\n\t``I'd guess you're just as curious then,'' the turtle said.  ``'Cause here I am and I'm not one of your brothers.''\n\n\t``We don't really know that for certain, now do we?'' Leonardo asked softly.\n\n\tThe other turtle went silent.  Leonardo knew that he hadn't moved because he could just hear the beating of the lost boy's heart.  It had a melody all its own and Leonardo came to think of it as his personal siren's call.\n\n\tThen the turtle sighed.  ``I keep telling myself I've lived all these years without knowing about you guys and I can just keep on that way.  But I guess I can't.  Give your word you won't try anything funny?''\n\n\tIt was an oddly naive question and Leonardo found it endearing.  ``You have my word of honor.''\n\n\t``Okay, get up,'' the turtle said, stepping back as Leonardo gained his feet.\n\n\tWhen Leonardo turned around, he saw the other turtle had moved beyond the reach of his swords.  ``May I put these back on?'' Leonardo asked, gesturing towards his katanas.\n\n\t``Sure,'' the turtle said with a nonchalant shrug.  ``You wouldn't leave them if I told you to anyway.  Not if you love `em as much as I love my `chucks.''\n\n\tLeonardo smiled as he bent to retrieve his weapons.  As he strapped them into place, he watched the younger turtle, who was grinning at him in a beguiling manner.  His blue eyes shone with a lighthearted mischief that seemed to pull every bit of stress out of Leonardo's body, leaving him feeling extraordinarily relaxed.\n\n\t``My name is Leonardo.  What's yours?'' Leonardo asked, wanting to call him something other than lost boy.\n\n\tThe other turtle tilted his head in an almost flirtatious manner and said, ``Michelangelo.  My playground buddies shortened it to Mikey though, `cause they said the other was too long.''\n\n\tLeonardo was startled to hear the younger turtle's name.  His sensei, on a whim, had named each of his three children after Renaissance artists.  The coincidence of this turtle also choosing a moniker from the same period was astounding.\n\n\t``I'm glad to finally meet you, Mikey,'' Leonardo said solemnly.  ``How did you come by your unusual name?''\n\n\tMikey's eyes widened a bit, denoting his enthusiasm, a gesture Leonardo found endearing.  ``The place where I lived had an art room and I liked to go there at night to paint pictures and make things out of clay.  I found a book in there about Michelangelo and `cause he liked to do sorta the same thing, I thought it would be a cool name.  I didn't know it was unusual.''\n\n\t``It's all right,'' Leonardo said quickly.  ``It suits you.''\n\n\tThere was a slight darkening of color along Mikey's collarbones and Leonardo found himself fighting to meet the young turtle's eyes when all he wanted to do was stare at Mikey's bewitching neck.\n\n\t``I'm glad to meet you too, um, can I call you Leo?  Leonardo sounds kinda stiff and proper, like a teacher's name,'' Mikey said.\n\n\tLiking the intimate sound of that nickname, Leo said, ``Of course.  I'd like that, Mikey.''\n\n\tMikey shuffled his feet a little and then said, ``This is really cool and all, but you really should get the wound stitched up before it gets infected.  I said I could do it and I will, if you still want me to.''\n\n\t``I would.  Thank you,'' Leo said.\n\n\tLooking directly at Leo, Mikey's eyes sparkled, making the older turtle catch his breath again.  ``Maybe you shouldn't thank me until we see if you live through the ordeal.''\n\n\tLeo couldn't help but chuckle, receiving another enchanting laugh in return.  Then Mikey turned and beckoned, starting back into the side tunnel from whence he had appeared.\n\n\tThere were so many things that Leo wanted to know about Mikey but he had a feeling he would learn them soon enough.  The fact that the young turtle also lived in the sewers was a happy coincidence; after all, how many logical places were there for a mutated turtle to live?\n\n\tWhen he stepped into the darkness behind Mikey, Leo drew as close to his companion as possible without actually invading the turtle's space.  The urge to boldly inhale a lungful of his scent was extraordinarily strong, as was the desire to reach out and caress Mikey's sea green skin.  It was the most intense feeling Leo had ever had.\n\n\tLeo had absolutely no idea why such overwhelming needs had suddenly appeared, but he knew that Michelangelo's arrival in his life had triggered them.  Perhaps Raphael had been right in saying that this young turtle was a potential mate, angering Leo by voicing something that the older turtle hadn't wanted to admit.\n\n\tThe cavalier way that Leo had tossed aside his shell cell was certainly evidence that something other than common sense was taking control of him.  At the moment he didn't much care.\n\n\tLeonardo had caught the elusive lost boy, although Mikey didn't actually know that yet.  He would lead Leo to his home and Leo would learn about Mikey's origins.  Then Leo would find a way to remain in the young turtle's life.\n\n\tPermanently.\n\nTBC..................\n\n",

Leonardo asked softly.<br /><br />\tThe other turtle went silent.&nbsp;&nbsp;Leonardo knew that he hadn&#039;t moved because he could just hear the beating of the lost boy&#039;s heart.&nbsp;&nbsp;It had a melody all its own and Leonardo came to think of it as his personal siren&#039;s call.<br /><br />\tThen the turtle sighed.&nbsp;&nbsp;``I keep telling myself I&#039;ve lived all these years without knowing about you guys and I can just keep on that way.&nbsp;&nbsp;But I guess I can&#039;t.&nbsp;&nbsp;Give your word you won&#039;t try anything funny?&#039;&#039;<br /><br />\tIt was an oddly naive question and Leonardo found it endearing.&nbsp;&nbsp;``You have my word of honor.&#039;&#039;<br /><br />\t``Okay, get up,&#039;&#039; the turtle said, stepping back as Leonardo gained his feet.<br /><br />\tWhen Leonardo turned around, he saw the other turtle had moved beyond the reach of his swords.&nbsp;&nbsp;``May I put these back on?&#039;&#039; Leonardo asked, gesturing towards his katanas.<br /><br />\t``Sure,&#039;&#039; the turtle said with a nonchalant shrug.&nbsp;&nbsp;``You wouldn&#039;t leave them if I told you to anyway.&nbsp;&nbsp;Not if you love `em as much as I love my `chucks.&#039;&#039;<br /><br />\tLeonardo smiled as he bent to retrieve his weapons.&nbsp;&nbsp;As he strapped them into place, he watched the younger turtle, who was grinning at him in a beguiling manner.&nbsp;&nbsp;His blue eyes shone with a lighthearted mischief that seemed to pull every bit of stress out of Leonardo&#039;s body, leaving him feeling extraordinarily relaxed.<br /><br />\t``My name is Leonardo.&nbsp;&nbsp;What&#039;s yours?&#039;&#039; Leonardo asked, wanting to call him something other than lost boy.<br /><br />\tThe other turtle tilted his head in an almost flirtatious manner and said, ``Michelangelo.&nbsp;&nbsp;My playground buddies shortened it to Mikey though, `cause they said the other was too long.&#039;&#039;<br /><br />\tLeonardo was startled to hear the younger turtle&#039;s name.&nbsp;&nbsp;His sensei, on a whim, had named each of his three children after Renaissance artists.&nbsp;&nbsp;The coincidence of this turtle also choosing a moniker from the same period was astounding.<br /><br />\t``I&#039;m glad to finally meet you, Mikey,&#039;&#039; Leonardo said solemnly.&nbsp;&nbsp;``How did you come by your unusual name?&#039;&#039;<br /><br />\tMikey&#039;s eyes widened a bit, denoting his enthusiasm, a gesture Leonardo found endearing.&nbsp;&nbsp;``The place where I lived had an art room and I liked to go there at night to paint pictures and make things out of clay.&nbsp;&nbsp;I found a book in there about Michelangelo and `cause he liked to do sorta the same thing, I thought it would be a cool name.&nbsp;&nbsp;I didn&#039;t know it was unusual.&#039;&#039;<br /><br />\t``It&#039;s all right,&#039;&#039; Leonardo said quickly.&nbsp;&nbsp;``It suits you.&#039;&#039;<br /><br />\tThere was a slight darkening of color along Mikey&#039;s collarbones and Leonardo found himself fighting to meet the young turtle&#039;s eyes when all he wanted to do was stare at Mikey&#039;s bewitching neck.<br /><br />\t``I&#039;m glad to meet you too, um, can I call you Leo?&nbsp;&nbsp;Leonardo sounds kinda stiff and proper, like a teacher&#039;s name,&#039;&#039; Mikey said.<br /><br />\tLiking the intimate sound of that nickname, Leo said, ``Of course.&nbsp;&nbsp;I&#039;d like that, Mikey.&#039;&#039;<br /><br />\tMikey shuffled his feet a little and then said, ``This is really cool and all, but you really should get the wound stitched up before it gets infected.&nbsp;&nbsp;I said I could do it and I will, if you still want me to.&#039;&#039;<br /><br />\t``I would.&nbsp;&nbsp;Thank you,&#039;&#039; Leo said.<br /><br />\tLooking directly at Leo, Mikey&#039;s eyes sparkled, making the older turtle catch his breath again.&nbsp;&nbsp;``Maybe you shouldn&#039;t thank me until we see if you live through the ordeal.&#039;&#039;<br /><br />\tLeo couldn&#039;t help but chuckle, receiving another enchanting laugh in return.&nbsp;&nbsp;Then Mikey turned and beckoned, starting back into the side tunnel from whence he had appeared.<br /><br />\tThere were so many things that Leo wanted to know about Mikey but he had a feeling he would learn them soon enough.&nbsp;&nbsp;The fact that the young turtle also lived in the sewers was a happy coincidence; after all, how many logical places were there for a mutated turtle to live?<br /><br />\tWhen he stepped into the darkness behind Mikey, Leo drew as close to his companion as possible without actually invading the turtle&#039;s space.&nbsp;&nbsp;The urge to boldly inhale a lungful of his scent was extraordinarily strong, as was the desire to reach out and caress Mikey&#039;s sea green skin.&nbsp;&nbsp;It was the most intense feeling Leo had ever had.<br /><br />\tLeo had absolutely no idea why such overwhelming needs had suddenly appeared, but he knew that Michelangelo&#039;s arrival in his life had triggered them.&nbsp;&nbsp;Perhaps Raphael had been right in saying that this young turtle was a potential mate, angering Leo by voicing something that the older turtle hadn&#039;t wanted to admit.<br /><br />\tThe cavalier way that Leo had tossed aside his shell cell was certainly evidence that something other than common sense was taking control of him.&nbsp;&nbsp;At the moment he didn&#039;t much care.<br /><br />\tLeonardo had caught the elusive lost boy, although Mikey didn&#039;t actually know that yet.&nbsp;&nbsp;He would lead Leo to his home and Leo would learn about Mikey&#039;s origins.&nbsp;&nbsp;Then Leo would find a way to remain in the young turtle&#039;s life.<br /><br />\tPermanently.<br /><br />TBC..................<br /><br /></span>",
