One Night you were at the local dump looking for parts that you could use for your next invention. You spotted a old engine that seemed to be in good shape on top of a metal scrap pile. As you closed in on the abandoned engine you heard what sounded like a fight. You climbed to the top of the pile and cautiously peered over the edge. What you saw obliterated your understanding of science. You saw four human size turtles fighting a group of completely identical men. "What the--gahh!"Your hand slipped and sent multiple pieces of scrap metal tumbling down the pile with a loud crash."Oops" you whispered looking down at the group who where now looking up at you. " Target located in this place crang was looking in this place that target was located " one of the men announced in a almost robotic voice "Capture target and bring her to crang" he said pointing at you and a group of men started to scale the mountain of metal towards you. "Uh-oh" you took a step back and slipped on a piece of metal and falling down the hill. You screamed as you rolled down the hill. collecting cuts scratches and bruises along the way. Your clothes were ripped and slowly turning red. You stopped at the foot of the hill and groaned at you lifted your head up to see the men now at the top of the hill. You tried to scramble back to your feet only to fall again on you butt from a pain in your leg. Looking down you found a piece of metal has lodged itself into you thigh. You panicked; You were a wounded deer with a pack of hungry wolves on your tail.
Something launched over the pile and landed on one of the men and slid down stopping in front of you. It was one of the turtles! He wore a purple mask over his face. You stared up at him with frightened (e/c) eyes scared of what he might do. "Don't worry I wont hurt you I'm here to help" He spoke gently showing a small gap in his teeth. Their was something in his deep brown eyes that made you both believe and trust him. You simply nodded and looked of a place to hid from the doppelgangers that where after you. There was a abandoned car not to far away. You dragged yourself into it and carefully watched through the broken windows. Your reptile protector was equipped with a bo-staff and skillfully defeated a majority of the enemy. You noticed one sneaking up on him with a plasma blaster. you grabber a trash can lid and flung it at him only to have it only bounce off his head with almost no reaction. He moved towards you ripping the door of it's hinges with one hand and throwing it into the darkness. You were about to run but he grabbed you by you neck and pulled you out of the car. You could hardly breath and his grip only got tighter. Your vision started to blur and you started to see spots. Your attacker was suddenly dropped you and was flung a few feet away. You closed you eyes and waited to hit the ground but instead you landed into a pair of strong gentle arms. You opened your (e/c) eyes to meet the chocolate ones of the unorthodox reptile. "Are you okay?" he asked. You nodded weakly as you coughed a couple of times. You heard the sound of footsteps and turned your head expecting to see more of those goons. Instead it was the other turtles running around the bend.
"That's the last of them" the one in the blue mask stated looking around. You sighed in relief and pushed some (h/c) locks out of your face. You realized that you were still in the purple colored hero's arms. A pink tint dusted your cheeks as you looked at the group. " Yo Don you gonna put her down anytime soon" the red masked turtle said. 'Oh thank goodness... woah wait my leg!!' you thought as he put you down. You winced and fell slightly before being pulled up again to lean on 'Don's shoulder for support. "Whats wrong?!" he asked ; worry laced in his voice. "I got some metal stuck in my leg earlier when I fell" you answer in a small course voice as the pain shot through your muscles. You started to feel light headed and looked at your injury. You lost a lot of blood and now it was taking it's tole. Your vision faded until you fell unconscious.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your (e/c) fluttered open to see a room that looked to be underground. You sat up confused and held your head your head hurt and the memories from before didn't aid your confusion.'Those turtles... How can they... Hmm' you thought your scrambled thoughts not noticing Don quietly walk in with some food. "Well it's good to see your up" He said with a contagious gaped smile. You smiled back taking him off guard a little. "Where am I?" You asked lightly looking around the room. "Our lair" he answered "Lair? sounds a little cliche don't ya think?" you joked smiling up at him. He cleared his throat nervously "So...um... what's your name?" he asked walking to you and setting the food down. "I'm (f/n). (f/n)(l/n)... umm" "Donatello. Don or Donnie for short" "Oh! Like the Italian renaissance artist" you beamed. "Ya actually our father named me and my brothers from a book he found on artists from that period." "Brothers" " Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo" "Wow that's so cool" You smiled again something about him just made you want to smile. You didn't know if it was his awkward cuteness or his kindness toward you. "Umm can I ask you something (f/n)?" Donnie said nervously wringing his hands. "Um sure" "Aren't you scared of me?" he asked quietly and with sadly. "No, in fact I think your quite intriguing. It's not everyday you see a human size turtle with a brain capacity to function as one as well it's extraordinary!" you gushed with a wide smile and sparkle in your eyes. Donnie was shocked but very happy too; not only did he realize that your just as smart as him but you didn't mind him being a mutant; You beyond caught his interest. He blushed a light pink as you examined him from across the room with a beautiful smile on your face.
Soon after his brothers and a man sized rat walked through the door. You looked at Donnie who looked back at you. "(f/n) these are my brothers. Leo, Raph, and Miky" he said pointing to each of them. Donnie walked to the group and gestured to the rat man "And this is our Sensei and father Master Splinter" he added. You smiled and bowed your head "I am in your debt. Thanks to your sons and their skills I'm safe" you said happily. "You owe nothing my dear we are glad you are safe and well" Splinter said returning your smile. You had a feeling that this encounter was going to change your life and you honestly couldn't wait to find out how.
