The idea for this chapter just sort of popped into my head so I wrote it down. I hope you enjoy it! On with the story!

Angel pouted and folded her arms. She didn't see why HE had to come over!

Luca didn't seem that happy about it either. He stood in the corner, arms folded, grumbling. He sensed her looking at him so he looked over at her. She stuck her tongue out at him. He returned the gesture.

"Children," her father said calmly, but with a hint of threat in his voice. He looked at Angel.

She stopped sticking her tongue out and tried to put on an innocent look. The Prof gave her a lopsided grin as he raised his eyebrow, then he went back to talking with his friend, Prof Jones.

He and Luca had come over for a visit, like they did from time to time. This aggravated her to no living end!

Not that they were mean, or anything like that. Actually, Prof Jones was nice! He would tell her jokes and stories, and bring her presents sometimes too!

It was Luca! He was just -SO- annoying! Acting all high and mighty, like he was better than her! He treated her like she was two! Even though they were the same age. Okay, so he was a week older than her, so what! That didn't give him the right to be a jerk to her!

She tried to steal another look over at him but…..

"Angel," Prof Jones called.

She looked over at him.

He smiled. "I gotta gift for you."

'Yay!' she thought, and smiled as she ran over, jumping onto the couch between her father and him. Luca wandered over to them too.

Prof Jones opened his brief case and pulled out a long, thin piece of dark purple cloth. Angel's smile widened as she realized what it was, seeing the two eyeholes cut out in the center.

"A bandana!" she shouted.

"Yep!" Prof Jones said, handing it to her, "And your favorite color too!"

She ran off happily to the mirror on the back of the bathroom door, quickly tying the bandana around her head, and admiring it in the mirror.

"Don't look so mad Luca," she heard her father say from the living room.

She peaked around the edge of the door to see the jealous look on Luca's face just before he turned to face her dad.

"You got one too!" her dad said.

There was a pause. "Really?" Luca said hopefully.

"Really!" his father said, and he pulled out another bandana, a dark blue one.

Angel ran out of the bathroom to join them.

Luca smiled as he tied his bandana around his head as well. Then he turned to her. "It's just like the stories!" he said happily.

"Yep!" she agreed, smiling too. It was contagious!

But short lived.

*BANG*

"AAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!" she screamed as the front door gave a hideous groan. Luca instinctively stood in front of her, as if protecting her from anything that could come through the door.

"This is the government!!!! Let us in!!!" a man shouted from outside the door.

"They know!!!" Prof Jones said, turning to her father.

"How!?"

"I don't know!"

"Professor Jordan Perry!!!!!!!! Professor Kyle Jones!!!!!" a different man shouted, "Open this door now!!!!! We know what you're doing!!!!"

"No," Angel moaned. She knew what was going to happen next. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Angel WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!" someone shouted.

Her eyes flew open and she sat up as the previous scene disappeared. She was in a dark place, looking kind of fuzzy through her eyes. She could feel that she was sitting in some sort of bed, with a blanket pulled over her legs. She looked up and saw a figure standing over her. And she saw a flash of blue.

"Luca?" she asked.

"Um, not quite," the figure said, "It's Leo."

Her eyes cleared and adjusted to the dark and she saw that it was Leo. He was kneeling down next to the bed she was in, a concerned look on his face. "Oh um, sorry. I thought you were…..um, someone else."

"That's alright," he said and smiled. Then he looked concerned again. "Are you alright?" he asked, "You were screaming."

"Oh, yeah, I just…..had a nightmare, that's all." 'It wasn't just a nightmare,' she reminded herself, 'It was a memory.'

"Well," Leo said, breaking the silence, "It's actually pretty late, so you probably should go back to sleep, if you can."

"I don't think I want to," Angel admitted, pulling her legs up to her plastron and hugging them. Then she realized something. "How long have I been asleep anyway?" she asked, looking up at him.

"Well, you fell asleep around noon and slept through the rest of the day." Leo looked at the clock. "It's about 1 in the morning now."

"Wow," she said quietly. 'I've been asleep for that long?' she thought. "Oh sorry if I woke you," she said, realizing that was what must have happened.

"No problem," Leo said.

"Where am I?" she asked.

"Well right now, you're in Raph and Mikey's room, on Mikey's old bed. Don't worry, he got a new one," Leo said.

Angel looked up and saw the bottom of a bunk above her. "Is….."

"Raph's asleep on the couch," Leo answered, smiling again, "He didn't want to disturb you."

"Oh," she said, "And April. Did she go home?"

"Yes. Not long after you fell asleep. Said she had to go to a Lamaze class." Leo chuckled remembering the reaction from Mikey and Raph. Not unlike his own when he found out April was pregnant.

"Oh," Angel said again. Silence fell.

"You sure you're alright?" Leo asked. He remembered how scary nightmares could be when you were little. He remembered when he was little and Splinter had to console him, or one of his brothers, after they had woken up from a nightmare. That sent a twinge of sadness through him, but he turned his attention back to Angel. "Do you want anything?" he asked.

"Um, actually," she said slowly, "Whenever I had a nightmare, my dad would get me some warm milk."

"Warm milk it is, then," Leo said, smiling wider. He stood up from kneeling and walked over towards the door, turning back to look at her. "I'll be right back."

Angel watched as he walked out. 'He reminds me of my dad a little,' she thought. She smiled to herself as she heard the fridge open and shut and a microwave hum. Here she was, in the home of her bedtime story heroes, and they had treated her so kindly. Well, she had expected them to be nice, but they treated her like a daughter, or maybe a little sister. She had never had an older brother before, and now (she laughed at the thought) she had four!

Leo walked back in with her milk and handed it to her. She gratefully took a sip. "Thank you," she said.

"You're welcome," Leo answered. "Are you alright now?" he asked.

Angel nodded.

"Okay, try to go back to sleep now." Leo yawned and started to walk out of the room.

Angel started to get scared. "No wait!" she shouted after him, holding up an arm as if trying to stop him.

"What?" he said, turning back to look at her.

"Stay here," she said, scared. Then she became embarrassed. "Um, well, until I fall asleep, at least." Blush shone on her cheeks as she looked determinedly at her milk.

Leo sighed and put a hand over his tired eyes. 'Kids,' he thought. Then he put on a smile, reached up, and grabbed Raph's pillow from off his bed. He threw it on the ground next to the wall and sat on it, shell leaning against the wall. Then he sighed again, folded his arms, and gave Angel a look that said "Happy now?"

Angel smiled contently. She put her milk down on the table next to the bed, lay back down, and, feeling safer, she almost immediately fell into a dreamless sleep.

*********

"So Luca IS another turtle?"

"Yes, he's my other," Angel answered. She was sitting in the living room, on an old arm chair.

She had been answering questions ever since she had woken up that morning. Well, after she and Mikey had poked fun at Leo for falling asleep on the floor. He was so embarrassed! And then Mikey had made sure she ate the breakfast he made.

Then the turtles, well, mostly Donny, asked her questions from how old she was to how she heard about them in the first place to what happened to Prof Perry. (Leo stayed quiet, Raph just lounged on the couch, and Mikey would ask funny questions and just get looks from his brothers.) After a little trouble, Angel was able to tell them what happened to the Profs. They all seemed quite upset.

Then the subject of Luca had come up.

"You mean your brother?" Donny asked. He was sitting, Indian style, on the ground by the chair.

"No, my Other," Angel answered, frowning a little. Yes they may both be mutant turtles but they weren't siblings.

"Well that's clear as mud," Raph said. He stretched a little. The couch is a little uncomfortable to sleep on, and he had woken up with a crick in his neck.

"Was he caught too?" Mikey asked. He also sat on the floor, leaning against the couch.

"Well, I don't know," Angel answered, looking down, upset with herself, "We split up." 'He should be here right now, safe,' she thought, 'but he's not, thanks to me!'

'Aw, don't cry again,' Leo pleaded in his mind as he looked at Angel. He was sitting across from her in another chair. He wished April was there. She would know how to take care of this little girl. But luckily, when he looked back over at the little turtle, she seemed to be pulling herself back together.

"So," Mikey started, turning from Angel to look at Leo, "What's the plan, leader man?"

Leo sat for a second, thinking. "Well," he started, "We have to find out where they are and who's holding them first. Don?"

"No problem," Donny said, "Hey, Angel?"

"Hm?" she said, looking up.

"Come help me," he said, smiling, "You know more about these "government" people then I do."

"Okay," she agreed. They both retreated to Don's computer and started the search.

"Well, what should WE do then?" Raph asked, stretching again. "Oh fearless leader," he added, enjoying the peeved look that crossed his brother's face. Leo hated being called that!

Mikey got up off the floor, standing next to the couch, and looked back and forth between his two bros. Against his better judgment, he decided to stay and see how this turned out.

Then Leo's face changed to a sort-of evil grin. "Well, we haven't practiced in a while, ya lazybum." He kicked the side of the couch, causing it, and Raph, to jerk. "Get up already, and we'll get your slow-moving butt back in shape."

Raph sat up and growled as Leo walked into the dojo area of their home. Then he looked over at Mikey, who was trying his hardest not to laugh.

He failed.

"Hahahahahahahhahahaha!!!" Mike had to hold his stomach.

Raph growled again and took a swipe at him, Mikey jumped out of the way. "Man you are getting slow," Mikey laughed, "Leo's right. You're really out of shape!"

Mikey gave a yelp and ran into the dojo after Leo, Raph tearing after him. He'd show Mikey what kind of shape he was in!

That's the end of that chapter. Please review! The more reviews I get, the faster the new chapter will come! Bye now!
