Description
after Mikey ran into the training room where me and the other turtles were hanging out and talking, he was talking very fast. after a few minutes, Raph slapped him. "get it togetha'!" he said while shaking him.
he shook Raph off. "I was saying, I was on the computer looking up videos and I seen this video where these people did the milk challenge. I figured how well the warheads went and thought we should do this. no burning....you slapped me?!?"
"the milk challenge can be dangerous because bodies need time to digest milk." Donnie told him.
"whats a milk challenge?" Leo asked.
"is there something you do know?" Raph asked.
"I know you were drooling over the weather girl this morning."
"you drool over-"
"the milk challenge," I interrupted them. "is where you drink one gallon of milk in a hour. throw up, you lose. if you don't throw up and raise the jug over you're head in that hour, you win. some people put food coloring in the jugs to help show whos is whos so no one cheats."
"all that milk in an hour can kill us!" Don warned us.
"if we throw up, then we cant digest all of it." I looked to Mikey. "we don't have four colors of food coloring nor jugs of milk."
"theres five of us." Mikey said.
"I cant play."
"why?"
"I am lactose intolerant. I would like to live thank you."
"you get the stuff and you can make the rules."
"like?"
"what the loser does and stuff."
"whos in?" I asked.
"not me." Leo said.
"chicken." Raph grinned. "I'll do it. someone has ta be the man of the challenge."
"I will do it." Leo changed his mind.
"I don't want to be the only one to not do it that can do it." Don said.
"so your doing it?" I asked.
"sure..."
"I refuse to go to the store alone so your asses are getting in the van mostly because I don't know how to drive."
"is there a huffy in the van?" Mikey asked snickering.
"yes."
"lets go get that huffy!" he ran into the house to change.
"makes me wonder how he wasn't kidnapped as a child." I told Leo. he nodded his head in agreement.
the turtles changed into their color coded clothing that matched their masks. they had hoodies, jeans, shoes, and hats. I was in my black hoodie, skinnys, Mohawk, makeup, spider choker, earrings, and tank top with steel toe boots. we had Donnie driving while Leo sat in the front with him. Raph and Mikey were in the back. I was in the trunk. its a van, so I don't think it can be considered a trunk but whatever. Mikey was bouncing from excitement while we were wondering what we have gotten into. "what the hell are we doin'?" Raph asked. "I mean, Mikey suggested this."
"I don't know." Don said. "what should change my mind from driving back home?"
"Tiffles, whats the rules?" Mikey asked.
"well, you cant throw up obviously... the first to throw up has to eat an onion. the second will eat half. the third shall...lets see... clean the mess. the winner will have the others do his chores for a week. that should be enough time to recover." I told them.
"shouldn't the first to puke be the one clean?" Don asked.
"nope. because when it comes to the final two, it will be a big lose or a big win. it adds drama."
"what if we need to... empty ourselves?"
"you are allowed to use the bathroom as long as someone is outside the door. that way you can not throw up without anyone knowing. ever since the show Jackass did the challenge, the rules vary."
"sounds fair." Leo agreed. "anything else?"
"well, they should have food coloring in them to see whos is whos and who throws up first. the milk must be one gallon, 2% or more, and no flavors. only white milk."
"racist." Raph taunted.
"am not! white milk will make it all fair. no advantages with flavors. besides, I love chocolate milk. I just cant have it."
"couldn't live like that."
"I wish I didn't have to. I miss milk and cheese and ice cream... I loved ice cream. you know, my parents took me to a ice cream shop? it was cruel. they all got ice cream and I got a slushy from the gas station."
"parents?" Leo looked back to me. "you have parents? what are you doing here?"
"people have this thing with trying to kill me so I booked it."
"oh."
"forget about it." we pulled into the parking lot. everyone got out except for me. Donnie opened the door to the trunk. I had my legs dangling down. I had my arms out and squeezed my hands shut a few times. "wont you help a lady out like a gentleman?"
"you need help?" he asked.
"only in these jeans. there a little too skinny for now. I still need to stretch them out before I can have full mobility." he put his hands on my hips and lifted me a little. when I had my feet on the ground he let go. "was that so hard?"
he was blushing like a mad man. "lets keep going..." he mumbled. we walked in the store and headed to the fridge isle. no one thought they were turtles since they were covered up. we were looking at milks.
"who knew there were so many brands..." Mikey said while looking at each one. "which one was you're favorite?" he asked me.
"I don't remember. its been years since I had a glass. we usually get the red cap stuff." I picked it up. "its white, 2%, and one gallon." I picked up 3 more. Leo pushed the cart. we were in the baking isle looking at food coloring.
Mikey picked up a color. "does this complement my eyes?" he asked in a girly voice while batting his eyes.
"makes ya look like a whore." Raph said bluntly.
"ouch."
I seen a kid looking at us. I nudged Raph to look. "uhh...sorry?" the kid looked up at me then ran off. "ya were right, kids are scared of ya."
"told you." I said with my arms crossed. I picked up four colors that matched their masks. "now, since you boys are getting stuff, I'm getting something for me."
"as long as it aint no lady products. we don't need to know your not feelin' fresh. whatever that means."
I was blushing a deep red. "no, its not women products. I just want some of my Peace Tea."
"Peace Tea?" Leo sounded interested.
"its more like a soda. I had it fizz over when it was shook once. I remember the first time I tried it." I thought back to the day while walking to the drink isle. "me and a friend were sitting by a river in the night. we were talking and we shared her drink. it was lemonade and tea flavored. I was so close to kissing her but then the bugs were eating us alive. not everyday you're crush sees you topless. haha! we had bites for weeks..."
I picked up the same flavor from my story and out it in the cart. the boys looked at me like I was weird. "you almost kissed a girl?" Mikey asked. "topless?!?!"
"thats hot." Raph grinned.
"she was too. I am pan so it doesn't matter. how I loved her..." I could tell Leo was getting jealous by his face and his movements. his arms were crossed and he wasn't looking at me.
we were driving home. "remember what happened last time we did Mikey's challenge?" Don asked.
"we had to eat soft food for a week and Leo is still doing my chores." I smiled.
"our masters were laughing at us!"
"speakin' of which, where are they?" Raph asked.
"there in the woods sparring. Shifu said it was too much for the dojo to handle. it is a shed after all." Leo told us. "they'll be back later tonight."
"its 4pm already." Don told us. "where should we do this? I mean, there is vomit involved."
"in the backyard. we live in the country. the trees can hide us and the nearest neighbor is half a mile away. we can hose off the cement." I told them.
"at least she has a plan."
we were in the backyard. they were shaking up their milks with their colors that matched their masks and I was sitting on the porch with my tea, reliving that night with the girl. good times... I had the timer on my phone set and ready to go. "in 3 minutes it will be an hour. any questions before it starts?" I asked.
"yeah, this girl... do you still...talk?" Leo asked.
"no. she stopped speaking with me when she found herself."
"did you...love...her?"
"very, I would still die for her to this day."
"how long-"
"are you jealous?"
"what? no!"
"awww, Leos jealous! Leos jealous!" Mikey sang.
"am not!"
"then why ask so many questions?"
"just asking."
"because your jealous!"
"I-"
I cut him off. "begin." they all drank a good portion of their milks before taking a breather.
"this is it?" Raph asked. "this is going to be a piece of cake!"
"yeah, try saying that half an hour later..."
they kept drinking and soon, they were 10 minutes in. Don was making an odd face for someone so intelligent. "what are you doing?" Leo asked him.
"I think I need to pee." he said while doing a little dance. I looked at his jug. it was about 1/4 empty.
"take someone with you, you know the rules." I told him.
before he could ask anyone he just took off. Leo followed him a few moments later. "its that breaking the rules? he didn't take anyone with him. he just ran." Mikey complained.
"yes, it is. but he did have to go. I'll make do something for it if he hasn't thrown up yet." Don came back relieved and Leo aggravated. "hey, Donnie. you broke a rule. you didn't take anyone with you. Leo just followed. do 5 jumping jakes and we'll call it even."
"what?" Don's voice cracked. he sighed before doing what I told him to do. "happy?"
"I'm all a twitter." I was being sarcastic and he knew it.
we where 20 minutes in and their jugs were almost half way done. I was impressed until I seen their faces. Mikey had his hands rested on his stomach. Raph was rocking back and forth. "this is a piece of cake." Raph struggled to say.
"I'm sure it is." I said with a smile. "who knew being lactose intolerant would come in handy one day?"
"I could just make you drink some."
"and you'll bring the pink stuff. I refuse to be bloated, crampy... that's what periods are for."
"gross." Mikey patted Raph's stomach harshly. "what are you doing?" he shoved Mikey.
"trying to make you barf."
"yeah?" he hit Mikey in the stomach.
"oh...yeah?" he asked through his pain. "well..." he pushed on Raph's stomach harder. this made Raph do a spit take on Mikey's face. Mikey's face was covered in red milk while he screamed in a girly way. "get it off!!!" he took the hose and used it full blast on his face. he had it off and everyone was laughing.
"Mikey likes explosions on his face." Raph grinned. "looks like Tiff bled on ya."
"ewww." I said. "whats with the period talk today?'
"I don't know."
we were in 30 minutes now. Don was on the ground, holding his stomach. "you okay, Don?" Leo asked.
"I think my bladder is broken. I feel like its just hanging on now." all of a sudden, he vomited purple milk.
"ewww..." Mikey said. "you can see the... salad?" he looked in the purple puddle.
Raph looked to it. "nah, its a calzone."
"its really chicken." Don said.
I stood up and helped Don to the porch. he put his head on my lap. "well, you lost first." I told him.
"I'll eat it in a few minutes." he said.
Mikey took Don's jug and his own and put them on his chest while shaking them around. "my milkjugs bring all the turtles to the backyard cuz shell right, there better then yours! shell right, there better then yours!"
"don't make me laugh." Don said as I petted his head.
40 minutes in, Mikey was out. it was between Raph and Leo now. "you might as well give up now." Raph told him. "I am gonna win anyway."
"nice joke. but, your going to lose and clean this mess."
"I'm stronger so my stomach is stronger. I can hold more."
"you got sick from eat 2 cinnamon rolls!"
"I was 5!" Raph argued.
"I rest my case."
Mikey did throw up faces at me. "you puke on me, I'll shove my foot so far up you're shell, you will cough dirt for weeks."
50 minutes in, Raph was walking around while Leo sat on the ground with his hands on his stomach. "we only have ten minutes left and you guys are only 3/4 down." I told them.
"you hear that? we have to finish this now." Raph said.
"agreed." Leo stood up. they clanked their jugs together before looking at their brothers. they got the hint and got their jugs. all the turtles attempted to finish their jugs. Don threw up right away, adding to the colorful puddles on the cement. Mikey stopped to breath. it was just Raph and Leo left. they kept drinking until Raph had enough. he began to vomit red on the other puddles. Leo finished his jug.
"raise it above you're head or it wont count!" I told him. he did so. "Leo is the winner. he gets his chores done by his brothers for a week."
"I told you! I-... Raph?" Leo looked to Raph who was on his knees and hands.
Raph was still vomiting. he stopped after a few minutes and breathed heavy. "its like more went out then in." Mikey said in amazement.
"I swear its startin' to come from my ball sack!" Raph wined. "why did I do this?"
"Mikey is convincing." I told him. "so, Leo finshed with 5 minutes to spare while Raph gets to clean up after a few minutes, Mikey eats half an onion, and Don eats a whole one."
"and you?"
"I watched."
"right..." Leo grumbled. he went in the house and brought out 2 onions. "a bet is a bet." he tossed one to Don and Mikey. "eat up."
Leo, Raph, and I sat on the porch and watched them peel the onions. I felt kind of bad but they did agree to the terms. Mikey and Don clicked their onions together as though they were glasses. they each took a big bite. right away, they made odd faces. "oh my god particle!" Don exclaimed while swallowing the first bite.
Mikey gagged a bit. "it takes like shit!"
there eyes were tearing up and red. Don began coughing. "oh my- why did I agree to this?!? I don't even like onions that much!!!"
"I will never enjoy tacos the same way again." Mikey said through a series of aggressive bites.
"I don't think I can complete this." he stopped for a moment. "I feel like crap."
"shut up, Donnie." Mikey said. "you're breath reeks."
"and yours smells like old spice?"
"thanks." Mikey grinned. his face fell after a moment. "it burns!!!" he started coughing. "can we drink something?" he started chugging his milk. he quickly spat it out. "that was a dumb idea!!!"
"I hate you.' Don dramatically said to me. "why didn't you just say pizza? I could have had that gone in a minute!"
Mikey tossed his onion to me. "half done!" he shouted with victory. he sat in front of us while we all watched Don.
"what sicko could have thought about this? are you crazy???"
after a few moments of us laughing Mikey was making weird noises. it was choking noises but he wasn't really choking. "I can still feel the burn!"
"baby." I took a bite from the onion. they looked at me oddly. "I used to do this all the time. I can even do this with ghost peppers." I took another bite.
everyone was back in the house. we all brushed our teeth and the turtles were laying down. Raph had the yard cleaned of puke. Don was at the computer in a slump-ish way. Mikey was laying in the chair playing a game. Raph went to his bed, we could tell because he was snoring. I was sitting on the couch with Leo's head in my lap. he was watching the game play while I petted his head like I did to Donnie on the porch. he sighed. "what are you doing?" he asked.
"petting you."
"I may be a turtle, but I am not you're pet."
"I never said you were. it just passes time."
"so... that girl..."
"you are jealous!"
"no..."
"here." I hovered my lips over his then backed off. "there, I almost kissed you too."
"you are cruel." he turned his head so it was facing up. "what time is it?"
"about 7."
"they should be home any minute. who wants to tell them?"
all the turtles said no except for the sleeping Raphael. "why should we tell them?" Mikey asked.
"to explain why we are all feeling sick."
"good point. Tiffany?"
"why not?" I shrugged. I began to twitch from my nerves though. they were upset at us for the last challenge we did. how would they react to this one?
"you okay?" Leo asked.
"just nervous." I began to pet Leo again but this time, he didn't question it.
our masters walked though the door. "hello, we have returned." Splinter's voice filled the room. the turtles made a bunch of mumbles to acknowledge they heard him. Leo was fast asleep on my lap. "what is going on?"
"why are you not creating chaos?" Shifu asked.
"we don't feel like it." Mikey whined.
Shifu and Splinter looked to me. "they did the milk challenge and are now ill for the day. some sleep should help."
"are you going to keep doing these foolish challenges whenever we leave?" Shifu asked me.
"most likely."
"who won this one?"
"Leo. he fell asleep though. his chores are to be done by the others for a week under agreement."
"one week?"
"healing time."
"the first to puke had to at a whole onion." Don grumbled.
"second ate half." Mikey yawned.
"the third had to clean up the mess. that was Raph." I explained.
"when are you going to learn?" Splinter asked.
"we learned plenty of things today." Mikey told him.
"like what?"
"well, too much milk is a no no, eating an onion by itself burns, washing it down with more milk is a bad idea, and Tiffles almost kissed a girl topless before."
"Mikey!!!" I scolded. "I had my shirt on when I went to kiss her. I had it off when I picked dare instead of truth before hand."
"says the one that was topless as in no shirt, no service, as in-" I threw a pillow at him.
my masters were looking at me with shock. "I really wasn't going to kiss her while I was-... forget it." I was twitching and blushing.
"lesson learned." Shifu whispered to Splinter. Splinter could only nod.
