I fall to the ground recovering an breathing heavily. I slowly start to adjust back to my surroundings.

I stand up and my eyes widen in horror when I see my hands.

This can't be.

I stumble back stepping in a puddle. When I turn around I see my reflection.

My cloths a ripped and I no longer seem human. I'm a...rat!?

I yell again terrified of what I've become when suddenly I hear crying. I turn back around to see three turtles. I have forgotten about them. They have also changed though they still resemble turtles. They are also only babies.

I suddenly feel something pinch my...tail? I look to see another one of the little turtles nibbling on my tail. He looks up at me with his light blue eyes and freckles. I can't help but smile as I pick him up.

"Stop that know...." I say pulling my tail away from him. I continue to hear the others cry so I walk over and comfort them. They are all different in some way.

One has dark blue eyes and looks at me with curiosity. Another has bright green eyes and gives me a "what?" Look. The last one has the same eye colour as me with a little gap between his teeth. I pick them all up.

"Don't cry little ones everything will be alright," I say and they seem to relax.

Then I hear a motorcycle behind me. I turn around to see a young man look at me in fear. He screams and quickly rides away.

"We're to exposed here," I say to my self. Without a second thought I climb to the roof tops and make my way back to the apartment.

Once I'm there, I realize that I can't just walk threw the front door so I go up the fire escape. I climb in the window, careful not to drop the turtles,which are now asleep.

I lie the turtles in a pile near the corner of the living room and look for something to wear.

I find a robe that's big enough to rap around me. I'm Much taller than I used to be and ,well more furry....

After I'm dressed I hear a knock at the.

"Yoshi?" I hear Nichole say.

Oh no...

"Y-yes," I answer.

"Sorry, I didn't see you come in," She says.

"I um, took the stairs," I reply.

"Why?" She asks with a chuckle.

"N-no reason," I answer hesitantly.

"Ha ha, alright then I was just dropping of your mail."

"Ok, just leave it at the door I'm undressed at the moment," I reply.

"Oh, ok, well see you later,Yoshi," she says back. I hear her foot steps down the hall, quickly open the door, grab my mail, and close it back.

That was close.

I turn back around to the three turtles sleeping.

Wait three!?

I look around frantically for the fourth. The window is open. I run over to it and look out side.

He is crawling on the side walk below.

How did he even get down there!

I jump out the window landing close to him. To my surprise he is now in the road.

Of course traffic is incredibly high.

Great....

I run after him,but he is a surprisingly fast crawler.

"No stop!" I yell but it's to late. I black car is heading right for him. The little turtle looks up and his vibrant smile turns into a scared and surprised expression.

Without thinking a quickly jump out into the street grabbing him, barely dodging the car.

I'm not even shure if I made it to the other side. I open my eyes hesitantly to see that I'm crouched on the other side of the street.

I exhale in relief. My heart is pumping quickly with adrenalin. I look down at the little turtle. He looks up at me with his bright blue eyes and a smile returns to his face.

"Don't ever do that again," I say returning to the apartment with stealth.

I decide to just go in the front intrance. As I'm walking to the elevator ,a door next to the desk opens.

It's Nichole. I freeze and she shines a flashlight on me. Her eyes widen and she screams.

"No,no, no Nichole..." I say trying to calm her down.

She starts shaking and backing up slowly.

Nicholes P.O.V

I heard someone come threw the door so I stepped out of my office to check it out.

I saw a figure standing there so I shined the flash light on it only to see its a giant rat.

I can't believe what I'm seeing. It starts to move towards.

"S-Stay away from me..." I say holding up the flashlight ready to swing.

"Nichole it's me," the creature says just feet away.

"I said stay back!" I yell. The rat is inches in front of me now. I swing the flash light at it head but it grabs my hand.

"Let go of me!" I yell struggling.

"Nichole it's me,Homato Yoshi," the rat says.

I look into his kind brown eyes. It is him.

Homato Yoshi's P.O.V

She looks at me with shock.

"Yoshi...what happened to you?" Nichole says.

"It's a long story," I reply.

She continues to look at me with shock and a little worry.

"What's that?" She asks pointing at the little turtle. He smiles and reaches out to her.

"Another long story..." I answer," we should talk somewhere else."

She nods and we go upstairs to my apartment. I tell her about what happened as I prepare some tea. She sits on the floor playing with the turtles.

"That is so...bizarre..." She replies after the explanation.

"Tell me about it..." I say offering a cup of tea. She takes it and I sit down next to her.

"What are going to do with them?" She asks.

"I don't know... I need to find somewhere safer for them..." I answer.

"I can't stay here."

She sighs then a half smile comes to her face.

"I think I know somewhere you could go."
