IMPORTANT AUTHOR'S NOTE! PLEASE READ!

Violet is Rainie's 'ancestor', to put it simply. I used to be in a habit that the main character was always a girl called Violet. I'm not doing that anymore, but I wanted Rainie and Violet to meet up. Violet was in a lot of other TMNT fanfics, but they're in first person and a load of rubbish. I'm thinking of editing them a bit, but I haven't got round to it. Maybe I will soon, I don't know, but if I do, I'll probably post them up.

Violet isn't like Rainie and she comes from a different background. She used to be human but hated it. There was no real plot for her coming to be- at one point, she was taken to the Turtles' lair and woke up as a Turtle, Master Splinter giving her the 'magic bandana' (you'll read about that further on). Another fanfic of mine had her running into the TMNT in Shredder's place before escaping again.

This is connected to my 'Taking care of Rainie' so if you read this and that, which I'm still working on, you'll know what I mean (hopefully- I'm not brilliant when it comes to explaining stuff :D )

Anyway, I'm hoping to get a few chapters on this, so enjoy and please review! :D

Her brothers were out and she hadn't been allowed to tag along. She was fiddling absent-mindedly with the time machine. She and Don were determined to get Cerling back to his own time.

Violet sighed. She was so bored. Even Master Splinter was having a better time than she was. She twisted a few wires and connected several cables to the main link, only half aware of what she was doing.

The next thing she knew, she was engulfed by a brilliant blue light. When that faded, she saw she was still in Donnie's lab, but something was different. It seemed… happier. His lab had more colour. Violet turned slowly, hearing whispers behind her.

She saw Donnie in his chair. He was watching her, perplexed. Sitting on the desk next to him was a light green skinned turtle, several years younger than Donnie, with a vibrant sunshine yellow bandana that covered her head.

"Donnie, who's that?" Violet and the yellow masked turtle asked at the same time. They held each other's gaze, Violet's expression hardening while nervousness settled in the other female turtle's young, green eyes.


"So, she just appeared?"

"Yeah."

"How?" Mikey asked, freeing his eyes from Superquest.

"Like that." Rainie snapped her fingers. Mikey grinned at her.

"Err… Violet, right?" Violet nodded. She was still purple, so they wouldn't know about her magic bandana. "What were you doing before you appeared in my lab?"

"Tweaking the time machine."

"Time machine?"

"Yeah. Me and Don- my Don- are still trying to get Cerling home." Her 'brothers' looked at each other, sharing blank expressions. "Cerling. The silver robot from 2105. Ringing a bell?"

"Yes!" Rainie said so suddenly, she startled Mikey. Her enthusiastic look vanished into worry. "Sorry, Mikey."

"You're OK, sis." She smiled sheepishly. "To be honest, I kinda miss Cerling."

"Or picking on him." Leo corrected.

"True, true, Leo." Leo rolled his eyes.

"Wut're we gonna do 'bout the new kid, then?" Raph grunted, still watching the TV- some show about motorbike stunts.

"She may take the spare room as hers until we discover more about this occurrence."

"Yes, Sensei." All six turtles chimed.


"Stop it!"

"No!" Rainie smiled sweetly. Violet glowered at her, her bandana changing red. Rainie's smile faltered as a slight glimmer of fear settled in her eyes. She jumped up and went to find Leo. He was in the kitchen getting his lunch. Rainie tugged on his arm.

"What's the matter, Rainie?"

"Her bandana changed colour."

"Changed colour?" Rainie nodded, chewing her lip. Leo set his plate on the side. Rainie was half tempted to swipe his sandwich, but she noticed that it was a ham sandwich with a bit of lettuce and tomato. She didn't like tomatoes.

Leonardo put a brotherly arm around her and carefully steered her out to the lounge. "Are you sure she didn't have a spare one, just a different colour?"

"It changed colour!" Rainie insisted. "Honest!"

"OK, sis, we'll ask her, alright?" Rainie nodded. The guys had to take things slow with Rainie. Donnie had recently found out that their sister was autistic, but it was different in its own way. Rainie was a happy-go-lucky pacifist. Her brothers were trying to teach her self-defence, but she was more interested in drawing or taking care of Klunk.

Violet looked round as the two approached.

"Hi." She said dully.

"Hi," Leo smiled kindly, "Erm… Rainie said your mask changed colour?"

"It does."

"Really?" Violet nodded. "Why?"

"'Cos it shows which turtle I suit most." Leo blinked blankly at her. Rainie didn't even try to hide her confusion. Violet sighed and explained how her DNA was a quarter each of her four brothers. Depending on her mood or the situation, her bandana would be a certain colour. "Rainie was being annoying and wouldn't shut up."

"So, if you're angry, you're like Raph which makes you red?" Violet nodded. "Cool."

"Leo?" Leo looked down at her younger sister. She still seemed nervous, but obviously her attention had suddenly diverted to something else, like it usually does. "I'm hungry."

"I thought you were. Come on then." Violet stared after them miserably.
