"You're weird too, Raphael. But...I like weird." Her anger has built over the years, festering inside of her like a disease with no cure. It is dragon fire with a heat that nothing can extinguish. She sees red, the colour that has always fuelled her reckless determination, hidden her fear, and coloured her hair. When her life took a turn for the worst and betrayal smacked her in the face, she took matters into her own hands. She took off into the night with what she could carry and never looked back, always looking ahead to the next best thing with hardly a thought for the world she left behind. She's waiting for something to make her happy. She's searching for the fire that will reignite that passion inside her and bring her back to life, but she has no idea what that could be and if she's being honest, she doesn't want to find out quite yet. What if it all comes crashing down again? The walls are up. It will take great strength to knock them down and a steady hand to repair what lays behind it.

She's a YouTuber with a small fanbase and big dreams, but lately, she catches herself wishing that things were different. She misses the privacy. She misses the simplicity that being a "nobody" brought. She misses the girl she used to be, but she can't go back. Not now. To everyone else, she's the girl on the other side of the video screen. She's funny and relatable, but she can't help but feel like everything she's made for herself here is a lie. At the end of the day, she feels fake. When a sentient computer virus appears, promising destruction, Annalise is far closer to the action than she would like. Still, she isn't one to let things go, and with no one else to turn to, she reaches out to the one subscriber whom she feels she can trust. One email to start it all. "Hey, PizzaNunchucker? This is a little crazy but...I think you're the only one I can talk to. I need your help." Book Five in the Mutations Series Song: Game Freak (Acoustic) by Ghost Town

"In Saskatchewan, when I couldn't fall asleep, I'd watch the moon and think about how across the country and over the border, you were probably out on a rooftop beneath the same moon. You were the first person I enjoyed the moon with. Every other time, I was alone." The Kraang's plot to take over New York has succeeded. The turtles, Destiny, April, Casey, and Diaval have managed to escape to the outskirts of the city, but not without loss. With Leonardo gravely injured and their Sensei gone, the moods of the group are pessimistic at best. Their minds are stuck on the city they left behind, but they know that they can't go back. Not yet. Now, they have to get used to living in April's family farmhouse; cleaning, training, and cooking for themselves. Of course, the lives of the turtles and those near to them are never normal. There are plenty of new mutants, both friend and enemy, lurking in the moonlit shadows of the forest around them, making their lives all the more interesting. All the while, they're healing from physical and mental wounds, helping each other grow stronger, and learning more and more about the past, present, and even the future. Book Two in the Mutations Series Song: Stand By You by Rachel Platten

"However, you say I am human in a sense, that my body is simply fused with the robot that I have been raised to believe I am. Could you teach me...emotion?" The Kraang tried to take over the city of New York twice, and only once did they succeed. The screams of civilians permeated the cold air as Kraang moved through the streets, armed to the teeth. Mutagen rained down over passerby, asphalt cracked, fires raged, and as the city grew silent, a lone van drove off down the road. Within the isolation of her TCRI Kraang cell, she watched the humans lose. Later, she watched the humans as they were saved. She felt nothing. Subject 60184 has known no other life than one full of Kraang droids and experiments. She's a cyborg who's been raised alongside the Kraang, but her hatred for her alien captors is unrelenting. For sixteen years she has lived as an almost emotionless test subject, forced to watch the big, wide world pass by without her. To the Kraang, she is an object, not a human being. This cyborg knows better. She knows what she wants, and she knows that they've made the wrong enemy. It's time to rebel. Book Three in the Mutations Series Song: The Scientist by Coldplay
