Normal POV

The fight lasted for only five seconds as the large figure knocked out the men in three swift movements each. He then brought the bodies to the one corner of the area and walked towards the mutant that laid before him. The kind man that He is carefully picked up the mutant that whined a small bit from the pain and his duffle bag and walked back to his home.

The mutant seemed to snuggle a bit into the larger mutants chest as if he knew he was in safe hands.

As the large figure known as Splinter came into the abandoned substation which was his home to find that his four sons we're still up and playing around in The pit that they we're too small to climb out of. The four sons spotted their father and stopped What they we're doing and ran excitingly to the direction their father was.

Splinter set the bag out of reach from the boys and laid Thomas on the couch within the pit. He removed the boys black cloak and saw all of the scars, bruises and smeared blood from who knows what.

The boys walked closer to the New stranger but Splinter kept them from viewing the mutant to not get too concerned. His eyes fell to the boy's necklace as He saw his necklace engrave into the small wooden block.

Painful memories rushed into his mind but He blocked them out and focused on What mattered at the moment.

"Can it really be you?" Splinter whispered to himself. He began to recount when be last saw this necklace in the possession of a boy.

The funeral was short and very small. There we're only five people who attended the service and four of them we're a family that was very close to the Hamato family. The family consisted of a husband, wife, and two children of boy and girl.

The youngest was the boy of three years old was crying into his mothers bosom as he was the only one who was taking this death hard. The daughter who was five held his father's hand and cried also but not as strong as her brother was taking it. The parents facial expression were pained with sadness but it couldn't match the level of despair the husband of Teng Shen was feeling as He kneed down at his wife's grave and cried quietly.

Before everyone left they all placed roses onto the grave stone that was under a cherry blossom tree. The boy had his rose float in the air and drop onto the stone without even looking at it. Even their blind dog place one on the grave.

They all went to their cars but Yoshi stopped them from leaving because He brought something out from a plastic bag that He brought with him. He walked towards the boy and kneed down to eye level with him.

"She wanted me to give this to you both. She made these herself." The boy took the bag and saw that there we're two small boxes one that was green and black and the other was purple and black.

The boy opened the green box which was his type of color while his sister took the purple box. Inside was a handmade Aikido Necklace with a carved lotus flower symbol in green and the background was black. The sister got the same thing but it was a foot symbol that was colored purple and it's background was red. The girl seemed irritated when She saw the symbol but teared up a bit when She remember it was Teng's final gift to them. They both hugged the widowed man and and the boy whispered into his ear.

"I will always treasure this item." They both went back to their parents and disappeared from the lonely man's view.

I turned the necklace over and knew for sure that this was My wife's craftsmanship as the same words I witnesses her write these exact words herself. 'With love~Teng Shen.' Which was both written in English and Japanese.

It is certain that this is Thomas but that would also mean that He has went through the same transformation that I have. The pain He must have felt. There was a sound of crumbling paper. I turned to see that My son Donetallo grabbed to cloak and found a sheet of paper inside. I made a small grunt at him and held out My hand.

"Hand it over." The turtle did and found that it was a letter to him.

"My friend, if you Are reading this letter in particular then that would mean that both me and My wife have left this earth peacefully. Sorry for the inconvenience but we had no choice but to leave. I believe that you already know the plan and we hope he won't be any trouble for you. Thank you for being a magnificent friend."

It was sad to read that My only true friends we're no gone and they left their children behind. I read the second letter and it was written in a more sloppy and fast paced writing in all caps.

"I ONLY HAVE TIME TO WRITE THAT THOMAS GOT TURNED INTO A HUMANOID ANIMAL AND HE DOESN'T REMEMBER WHO HE OFFICIALLY IS. SOME OF THEM ARE REPRESSED AND HE CAN GET THEM BACK BUT NOT ALL AT ONCE. HELP HIM IN ANY WAY LIKE THIS PICTURE."~Twin

It's been a short while since I've talked to his persona. The picture was taped to the back of the second letter and it was nothing like I've ever seen. The picture was a bit grainy and looked as if the person couldn't concentrate on What their aiming to capture. But is was a slender robot holding a very large gun. There wasn't much detail to that So that was all I could register. I gently scratched his head which He seemed to take a liking to for his smile showed.
