(A/N: I'd like to thank Lilninjawolf for betaing for me again! I'd also like to thank everyone who reviewed. Much appreciated! =D

Sorry I haven't updated in a while. Uni got the best of me. That and this type of chapter is annoying to write. Grrr... _)

Disclaimer: I do not own the turtles or make any money from writing stories about them. I am merely a figment of your imagination, writing stories to annoy you.)

---------------------

Raphael lay there, staring at the door Karai had just disappeared through. At first he seemed to be calm about what had just been said, but deep down anger was starting to grow. He couldn't believe what he had been told was true. Her brother?! They didn't even look alike, so how the hell was that even possible?!

Moshin seemed to be trying his best to manage now that he was alone with the turtle. Though he hardly seemed as sympathetic as his words were probably meant to be. The fact there was even an attempt to pity him, calm him, or anything like that put him on edge. "Raphael, please understand how hard this will be for those around you." He said. "To find someone you-"

"Hard for.. them?!" Raphael snapped. "What do ya.. mean hard for.. them!?"

Raphael had snapped, his anger now quickly bubbling to the surface. His breathing had picked up in pace, the mask aided him slightly, but only slightly. He started to push himself up off the bed. He ignored the sharp pain from his torso. "How do you.. think I feel..? I'm the one.. who can't remember.. a god damn thing..! I'm the one.. who was taken.. I'm the one.. who can't breathe!" He snarled at the doctor.

Moshin was quick to try and stop Raphael from getting up. "Please, you shouldn't be moving. You need to rest." He tried to reason.

But Raphael wasn't listening, he kept trying, struggling in Moshin's grip. Moshin purposefully placed a hand on his wounded area of his chest. Raphael snarled at him, this only causing him to struggle more then get him to actually stop. "How the hell.. could she be my.. sister?!" He demanded. "Huh? I'm god damn.. green! What the hell.. am I?"

He needed to know right now what he was. An experiment? A freak of nature? What?! Moshin frowned at him. "Raphael.. have you yet to see your own reflection?" He asked carefully.

Raphael just stared at him, his struggles subsiding for the moment. Reflection? No. Sorry, when he was running for his life he forgot to look in the mirror to make sure he hadn't messed up his hair. When the hell had he had the time to look at his reflection?! Sensing Raphael's answer, Moshin continued to speak. "I need you to calm down, you are not doing yourself any favours." He explained. "If you can calm down, then I can explain. It would seem that Karai is.. unable to explain things to you for the moment."

Raphael could tell that Moshin was not happy to be left with the job of explaining things. Reluctantly, he stopped his struggling, though his eyes were still on Moshin, waiting. Moshin took his hand away from Raphael's wound, but still kept pressure on his shoulders just in case it would seem. "Technically you are not Karai's real brother. Instead you are more of an adopted brother."

Really? Thanks genius, as if he hadn't thought of that. Raphael was not amused to say the least, but he stayed silent waiting for Moshin to continue. "When Karai was younger, she had a pet turtle. One day she had been playing in one of the labs her father owned and there was an accident. Her pet turtle.. mutated. He changed into something more human like. He changed into you.." Moshin was watching Raphael carefully now.

Raphael lay there silently, even more shocked now. He was.. a turtle.. Moshin wasn't doing a very good job of explaining things, instead he was pretty much just being down right blunt. "Wait.. What?" That couldn't be right.

The things that kidnapped him had been turtles, and if he was a turtle, what did that mean? Raphael had a really bad feeling now, his headache growing even worse. "I'm.. a turtle?" He muttered.

"Raphael, I wish there was an easier way to say this, but yes. You are rather turtle-like." Moshin confirmed.

"But.. the other turtles..?" He frowned, trying to make sense of it all.

"Unstable clones I'm afraid. One of your first doctors had been using your DNA for experiments. Though it would seem these turtles are not as strong as yourself. They hurt easily and will not live as long as they should. They have been trying to take you for years now, to try and fix their problem." Moshin continued.

This was too much information in one go. A little overwhelming, more than a little. Clones? Experiments? Kidnap attempts? "No.. That can't be right.." Raphael couldn't believe it.

But... the turtle, the purple bandana one, he had been hurt. It explained why they were hiding after all. Clones that shouldn't exist, hoping to get a hold of the original. Though it all seemed to be.. a little too convenient to be honest.

"Raphael, I know this must be a lot to process, but try not to worry too much." Moshin said. "When your memory returns, you'll understand everything. So until then, just get some rest."

Rest? Raphael was tired, but he didn't feel like sleeping. He'd done a lot of that lately.

"I'm going to go and see if I can find Karai." Moshin explained. "She's not exactly coping with this either."

Without another word, Moshin left. Leaving him all alone to his thoughts, with explanations that didn't make much sense, in a room he couldn't remember, and with a thumping headache to keep him company. Great, just great.
