Raphael's POV:
Raphael sighed as he leaned the back of his shell against the hard stone of his prison. A long, jagged scar bore straight through the plastron, leaving his shell demarcated. It had been too long, there was too much pain and sorrow. The nights had blurred together until all he remembered was a name. Donatello. Sanity was lost, a luxury he could hardly even spell in his regressed state. Flashes of purple overtook his eyes as he slipped into another one of his moments. The violet light would flash and he would be in a room with four other turtles. They all looked roughly like him, except for one who seemed to look a bit more feminine. Each turtle had a colored bandana wrapped around their head and seemed to be happy, joking even, especially the orange one. They never saw him in this dream, he simply awaited aimlessly for someone to do something. An action that never came. He swiveled his head when he saw a slow smirk rise onto one of the turtle's faces. It meandered carefully until it overtook the face of the purple banded one. DONATELLO.
Rhiae POV:
"As you can see, the victims seem to hinge on one moment before the trauma. Often the tested species remember the last normal thing they have seen before the trauma, which damages their memory or event and they blackout all together." I said to the partially full room. My lecture wasn't cutting edge, but I had a strong feeling with it. A feeling that it was much more relevant than all of the other lab reports.
"This focused time period is often a trigger point for the victim. When a similar thing happens sensually or mentally there are often two outcomes; the subjects will recover the repressed memory, or they will lose all further memory. A temporary blackout of sorts, and their actions in that state are irrational and mindless. Hopefully-," I was cut of by a redheaded girl in the back raising her hand erratically.
"Umm- what all species have been tested?" the bubbly girl asked, an excited smile twitching on her lips.
"Um, mice, geese, newts, and... Oh yeah, turtles!" I responded. I continued on with my lecture, but I could've sworn that the redhead's jaw had dropped when I said turtles…
