No one guess what I was hinting at!!!

Duo rested for the next several minutes then decided to try another method to get in touch with everyone. He figured Zerobase could be down, as unlikely as that may be.
"Can I use you're phone?" he asked.
Donny handed him a portable phone and Duo tried the Preventor New York number and got a message 'The number you dialed does not exists, please hang up and try again'. He tried several more American numbers and got the same result.
"Do you mind if I call out of country?"
"Go on." Leo told him.
"Why did you ask first?" Mikey asked.
"I didn't want the over seas charges to kill you." Duo told them looking a little confused.
"Oh we don't pay for the phone anyway." Mikey told him.
Duo glanced at him then shrugged.
He dug the number out of his pants, that someone had thankfully taken out when they washed them, and read it to himself several times. He picked up the phone and dialed it exactly as it was written.
Someone picked up.
"Moshi Moshi." (Hello) Duo said.
The person said hello back, and ask who he was calling for.
"Heero Yuy."
"Donata?" (who) they asked.
"Heero-san."
"Gomen." (sorry) they said, and explained they had no idea who he was talking about.
Duo asked if they where sure and they explained they had been living there for the past 5 years.
With a sign Duo hung up and found everyone looking at him.
"You speak Japanese." Venus asked.
'Oh yeah.' Duo thought to himself, the entire conversation had been in Japanese, no wonder everyone looked somewhat confused.
"I take it you didn't follow that?" Duo asked.
"I caught most of it." One of them told him.
Splinter nodded, "I understood it all, he was unable to find his friend."
"So what now?" Venus asked him.
"I try one last thing." He said and punched in another number.
The people on the other end answered: "Bruce and Stiff funeral parlor." Duo hung up.
"Not who you hoped it was?" Raph asked.
"Um, no. That should have been an OZ base." Duo said and glanced around the room.
"What's a Gundam and how many colonies are there?" he asked.
The turtles paused and glanced at each other. Splinter nodded.
"We didn't want to say this before, but what's a Gundam?" Venus asked.
Duo was glad he was sitting.
"You don't know what a Gundam is?" What about a colony?" he asked.
"Sorry." Mikey told him.
"And by any chance do you know what a Mobile Suit is?" Duo asked, no hope in his voice.
"No." Leo told him.
Duo let his head sink into his hands and asked a question he had been dreading.
"What year is it?"
"2001 AD." Donny told him.
"2001!?! No that's wrong, it should be AC 195!" Duo cried.
"What does AC stand for?" Donny asked him, trying to calm the boy.
"After colony." Duo glanced at faces that looked confused to him, "Ok AC I believe stands for when someone dropped a colony on earth. It was such a turning event that they started a new calendar counting system after that."
"You went back in time then." Duo told him.
The turtle moved to one of his computers and pulled up something.
"What's that Don?" Mikey asked.
"Remember when we went back in time?"
"Oh yeah, that whole staff thing." Raph muttered.
Mikey didn't seem too happy remembering what happened with Mitsu.
"Well this is all of the data." Donny told them.
"You think that may work?" Venus said remembering the story they had told her.
"I hope."
"I'm going to call April, she may still have the staff." Leo told them.
"What now?" Duo asked.
"We wait." Raph sand and left the boy to think.

Disclaimer and notes:
"Bruce and Stiff funeral parlor" is a real place about an hour from my house. I don't own it. (if I did it would have a better name)
I took liberties with what AC means, I'm assuming it's right.
Also, I'm not sure if I used the right suffix after Heero's name.
Oh yeah and Venus seems like she should speak Chinese not Japanese ('Made her way from China town, with the rest yeah that makes five'{*stops self*, ya if you watched it you know the theme}). And this is assuming Splinter taught the turtles, other than Venus some Japanese.
