William Shakespeare's text is a bit different and shorter in this story, but feel free to search the original online.

Normal POV

It all started that one night, when Donatello was scavaging an old junk yard for material he could use for his next inventions.

He had found a few things so far: a used blender, a few pieces of metal here and there, a millitary microchip (he was definatly gonna use this!). He was about to go back when he saw a silver car a few feet away.

It didn't look as old and as damadged as the other cars in the junk yard. He assumed it had been there for a few months, probably because of bad transmission or some stupid reason like that. Perhaps he could take some parts for the Shellraiser.

Once he got closer to it, he checked if the bumper, the headlights or even the license could be reusable. No luck. He then pried one of the doors open to look at the steering wheel and the seat belts. Still nothing. It was when he looked at the breaks that he found something odd.

Stuck right under the gas pedal, was a red hard-covered book with no title.

Donatello got it out of the car, opened it to a random page, and started reading.

But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon, who is already sick and pale with grief, that thou her maid art far more fair than she:
Be not her maid, since she is envious;
Her vestal livery is but sick and green
And none but fools do wear it; cast it off.

What was this? Donnie had never read such poetic words before! He turned to the first page, hoping to find the author's name in it.

Romeo and Juliet
A text by William Shakespeare

Aaaahh, that explains it. He had read about him and his works of litterature online, but he had never actually read one of them until now.

Donatello decided to put the book in his utility bag, and continue it later.

~~~~Time skip (brought to you by Donnie's purse XD)~~~

It had been about two weeks an a half since Donnie had gotten his book, and he had already finished reading it twice! He knew almost every line! It was now his favorite pass time. He didn't tell his brothers about it though, afraid they would destroy it. But they had sensed something's changed.

"Hey guys, is it just me, or does Donnie spend more time in his room lately?" said Leo.

"You noticed too, huh? Kinda weird. I'm the one who usually does that." replied Raph while feeding Spike.

"Yeah! Wonder what he does in there?" added Mikey, smashing the buttons on his controller.

"Meh, probably just working on another project."

"If he was, then wouldn't he do it in his lab? Something's not right here..."

"You think he's hiding something from us?!" yelled Mikey.

"You know what?" said Raph, getting up, a mischevious smirk on his face. "Mikey might be on to something. And you should never hide stuff from family!"

"What are you saying, Raph?" asked Leo, glaring at him.

"I'm saying, we should use our ninja skills and go stealth mode on Donnie. Find out his secret. Think of it as... training."

"Um, I don't know..."

~10 minutes later~

"HAHAHAHA!!!!"

"Hey, what are you guys laughing at?"

"Donnie, I didn't know you liked love stories!!" said Raph. He blushed and took the book from his hands.

"What are doing with that!? That's mine!"

"I bet he writes some too." Leo not too subtuly giggled, ignoring his complaint.

Mikey jumped over his brother and took the book from his hands in mid air. When he landed on the couch, he opened it to a random page.

"Haha! Guys, listen to this:
My bounty is as boundless as the sea-"

"Mikey, give it back!" his brother threw it over him and passed it to Leo.

"My love as deep; the more I give to thee-"

"Stop it, Leo!"

The book was passed to Raph.

"The more I have, for both are infinite!"

"Cut it out, guys!"

As they kept laughing and playing ball with his novel, Donatello's face became redder and redder, both out of anger and embarassement.

"That's it!!!" he finally caught his book, and everyone was silent for a moment.

"I'm going topside. No one follows me." he added as he left.

"Dudes, I think we just him mad. Like: Raph level, mad!"

"Want me to really show you what Raph level mad is?"

Mikey nervously chuckled.
