When Mikey woke up the first thing he did was to look at his Silver Sentry calendar to check the date. Today was one of his top five favorite days of the year. Mikey lived for April Fool’s Day and the amazing pranks that he could pull.

This year was going to top all of the past years. Before Mikey had always contented himself with individual pranks throughout the day. While these were still good, once they were done it was over. That wasn’t going to be the case this year.

Mikey’s plan was to only speak in rhyme all day long. It wasn’t something that his brothers could prepare for and avoid. On top of that it would last the whole day or until he got tired of it and there was nothing that they could do about it.

Cheerily Mikey jumped out of bed and made his way downstairs to go get some breakfast. When he got to the kitchen he saw that the rest of his brothers were already awake and seated around the table.

“Good morning my dear brothers,” Mikey greeted. “Those who I love above all others.”

“Good morning Mikey. You feeling okay?” Leo asked.

“I am perfectly fine, oh dear brother of mine,” Mikey giggled as he placed a kiss on Leo’s head before looking through the cupboards.

Leo, Raph, and Don all stared at each other hoping that one of them could explain Mikey’s odd behavior. Normally on this day Mikey would walk around with a conniving smile just waiting for one of them to fall into one of his elaborately set up pranks.

With nothing else to go on they all just turned back to their meals. Experience taught them to keep an eye on their youngest brother though. Mikey just grinned mischievously as he poured himself a bowl of cereal and joined them at the table.

“So what are the plans for today?” Mikey asked. “What kind of games are we going to play?”

Raph flung his spoon down onto the table in frustration. “Why the hell are you rhyming everything you say Mikey?” Raph growled.

“I’m going to spend the whole day rhyming. It has much better timing,” Mikey said in a sing song voice between bites of his food. “It’s way better than my usual trick. Those ones are over way too quick.”

Everyone’s eyes widened in shock at the simplicity but genius of Mikey’s plan. There was no way that they could avoid this well thought out April Fool’s Day joke. Short of locking Mikey in a closet which Master Splinter would probably disapprove of, they were stuck listening to his incessant rhymes.

With a loud slurp Mikey drained the milk out of his cereal bowl before going and putting it in the sink. “Well I’m done. You guys have fun,” Mikey said as he turned and walked out of the kitchen.

As Mikey pranced out of the room he smiled at the three identical groans that he heard from his brothers. He was very proud of the prank that he had come up with. This was going to be the best April Fool’s Day ever.

Heh, Splinter can't disapprove of what he doesn't know. "Where's Michaelangelo? Oh he's , um, skateboarding in the sewers... for the whole day... yeah, pay no attention to those muffled shouts coming from the closet, sensei"
