He staggered towards them, urging his legs to go faster. Green #1 seemed to sense his presence, and the red-eared slider peeled his face from the crook of the other turtle's neck to stare at him. From there, he extended a tiny hand, and he reached out towards Lou Jitsu with pleading eyes. Lou Jitsu raised his own hand out to the turtles, mere seconds away from gathering them up into his arms.

The next, an explosion - the biggest one Lou Jitsu could recall - rocked the laboratory, nearly throwing him off his feet. Then, a giant chunk of debris descended from the crumbling roof, and it crashed to the ground - right where the turtles were. Lou Jitsu froze, and he forgot to breathe, the air in his lungs suddenly replaced a pound of lead. His knees shook and buckled, his infallible spirit waning. He collapsed upon his knees, the sharp sting that followed after small compared to the pain building in his chest. Green #2 and #4 squirmed in his arms - whether because of all the movement or all his current state of mind, who knows - and he tightened his grip on them, frightened they, too, might disappear if he didn't.

Lou Jitsu made a horrible mistake that cost the lives of two of the turtles, or so he thought. While he raises Mikey and Raph, the twins are brutally raised by Draxum - the yokai forcedly turning them into soldiers. As the years go by, the brothers finally reunite; this time, on opposite sides. The twins learn about family, and Raph and Mikey learn about the secrets kept from them.
