TMNT: Shredders Son.

Part one:

"My son…"

I know that voice. He sounds upset. What's happening?

"My son, please wake up."

Who is that? If the voice is calling me son it must belong to my father. The voice of my father is pleading. My being asleep makes him sad. I should wake up. Then my father can be happy.

"F…father…" I'm surprised at how feeble my voice sounds.

"My son. You've woken up. I was so worried."

"Father? Are you my father? I…I don't know"

I try to remember but everything is blank. I begin to panic and my breathing quickens as a panic attack starts to take hold.

"Breathe, my son, just breathe. You are safe. You will be ok. I will help you."

He leans over, hugs me and I relax into his embrace. "Why can't I remember anything? I don't even know who I am."

"Calm down my son. Your name is Hōzuki, Nightshade. We were attacked and you were kidnapped by our enemies. They mutated you and injected you with an unknown substance that has kept you unconscious for three weeks. It seems to have also caused you too loose your memories. I am so sorry Hōzuki. I have failed you."

"N…no father, you have not failed. If you had failed I…I would be dead."

"Well my son, if you have no memories I will have to tell you what I can. My name is Oroku Saki or Shredder and I am indeed your father. Your mother, Tang-Shen was taken from us when you were two. I almost lost you and your sister Karai that day. Hamato Yoshi has raised his three sons on the path he took. It was they who aided him in taking you. They also helped turn you into a turtle like them. My guess is that they wanted you on their side. They wanted you to fight for them. They would probably have pretended you were their brother."

I shiver. They would have me fight against my family. That scared me so much. I wouldn't have been able to stop it either. I hate this feeling of nothing. My brain is empty. I feel tears spill from my eyes as my father pulls me close. I feel so weak.

A girl walks into the room and exclaims, "Hōzuki you're alright! You're awake!"

I look at her and at my father who sees my confusion and tells me, "This is your sister Karai."

Oh. I hate not being able to remember my family, my sister.

Karai looks confused and our father explains about the amnesia. Her face morphs into one of shocked agony as she angrily exclaims, "Those monsters will pay for this."

I don't know exactly who they are but they're here and protecting me. At least I have them.

Raph punched the wall. Don, Casey, April and Leo looked over from the computer and Master Splinter stopped meditating. Mike had been missing for twelve days and though they had scoured the entire city they couldn't find him anywhere. He was gone. Their baby brother had vanished. No, not vanished, he was kidnapped. It didn't make any difference. They had no leads.

They only knew one thing; they would find him at any cost.

No matter what…
