TMNT and Friends Challenge - Raph n Mikey Bi-week!

Hello Comrades! 

Welcome to the TMNT and Friends Challenge where the TMNT artist community is encouraged to nurture all of the relationships of TMNT! And by 'relationships' I don't just mean romantically - it includes friendships and familial relationships as well. 

Here's what to do...
Every two weeks we will be highlighting the relationship between two of the major characters of TMNT (2k12 version). Participants will be given the entire two weeks to write up a one-shot fanfic and submit it to the challenge. At the end of the two weeks, other fans will vote in a poll for their favorite fic for that bi-week.

Submission Criteria
Submissions can be no less than 500 words long, but no more than 10,000 words (be creative and descriptive, but please try not to write a whole novel).
Must be one-shots (single chapter).
Must be fresh-written. Nothing written before the start date of each bi-week.
Must be submitted to 'TMNT and Friends Challenge' folder in TMNT-OC-Free group.

Rules
No M-rated fics. Please respect that many members of this fandom are fairly young, so please do not submit anything that fits the criteria of M or MA rated literature.
No OCs unless they are simply cameos. 
No late submissions - no extended deadlines can be issued.
No play format stories, song-fics, or poems. Please write in story format and do not include song lyrics.
No parodies of movie/show/book ripoffs. Use your original work.

Okays!
You may join the challenge at any time! You don't have to participate every single bi-week.
You may use non-canon plots! AU, SAINW, Turtle-tot, T-Cest, or Human are allowed. However, genderbent is not allowed.
You may still vote even if you have submitted - but please do not vote for yourself!
You may post it on FF or Tumblr or anywhere - as long as it is also posted on DA.
