A/N: Disclaimer! Still don't own TMNT or IZ. The bold parts is when Alexis is reading in her head. Blah, blah, blah, ON WITH THE STORY!
I started to read, "Dear Irken Journal, yesterday I was activated. I have a twin sister who was activated before me, making her older than me." I said, "I gave him this journal on the day after we were activated." I kept reading, "My name is Alexander. My sister keeps calling me Alex. I don't mind. It's just a shorter version of my name. My sister's name is Alexis. She's sweet and funny and she said she'll beat up anyone who tries to hurt me." I did say that. "Even though we are both Smeets, she's pretty tough." I was pretty strong as a smeet. "Our leaders are Red and Purple. Sorry, my sister told me Tallest Red and Tallest Purple. They stand over us. Alexis and I are going to go into the Irken academy tomorrow, so I might not be able to right in here." The entry ends there. A new one starts about three pages later. I continued to read, "Alexis and I just graduated the Irken Academy. Alexis is really good with a weapon, even though she hates to kill. I'm pretty good at weapons too, but not as well as Alexis. She says I'm a softie. I don't mind. I am a softie. Alexis is too. It's kind of ironic, Alexis and I are twins and we both hate to kill, and we both love everything about other planets. We both feel bad for the planets that the empire takes over, but Alexis scares people easily. She doesn't mean it. She just jokes around. Tomorrow the Tallests will assign us planets. I can't wait." The entry ends again and then a new one starts up. "I hate Alexis. She was sent to a different planet than me. Well, I guess I can't blame her for that, so I do still love her. She was assigned planet slabgor, a planet with people that are half rock half goop. I got planet smock. It is a planet that has animals that look like they are painted, but it's their real colors! I'm sad that I have to take it over in a few months. We both got S.I.R. units. I named mine Ness and Alexis named hers Nancy. They are both truly kind and sweet." The next entry was almost two years later. "My left arm and part of my left antenna was shot off a few days ago. My left arm still hurts a little bit and my left antenna, according to my computer, is going to hurt for almost a year. I think I'll call Alexis to tell her. Get this! My sister's left arm and part of her antenna was shot off too! Now I'm pretty sure we're exactly the same. Well, except our gender." This next one's from the last time we talked before Alex came to the apartment. "I still can't believe it. I-I killed my mother. It was a total accident though. Alexis and I met our mother, and I killed her. It was instinct! It was a total accident! I didn't mean it! Now I know Alexis hates me for killing our mother. So, I'm running away in the middle of the night. I really am going to miss Alexis though. Good-bye Irk."
I looked at Alex and saw his breathing had evened out. I kept reading. The next one was from only a week ago. "I just found this old thing. I also found my dad. I'm doing my hardest not to kill him like I did my mother. He just told me if I were to become his true son, I'd have to murder Alexis. I know I'm too scared. She's my sister. Then just to be sure, he took Ness, and dismantled him! I couldn't believe that! I was happy I had Ness's personality on memories on an Irken Flash Drive."
A few hours after the last entry, "I couldn't do it. I couldn't kill my sister. I'm glad I didn't too. Alexis rebuilt Ness out of some spare parts. Man, am I glad she took that S.I.R. unit creation and PAK repair class back in the Irken Academy. I kept pressuring her to take that Uniform repair class with me. Alexis is my best friend, and I will never kill her. I swear I will not ever hurt her, or anyone, for as long as I shall live."
I looked back at Alex and muttered, "So sweet."
I put his journal on his bedside and put the covers over Alex's chest. Then I turned his light off and walked back to my room. I said, "Alex can be the sweetest person on Earth and Irk, yet he can be such a goof."
A/N: I really don't want to fight with Alexis's mom so, eh, Review!
