Donnie woke to find Digital sleeping soundly in his arms. But soon after he had awoken Digital's eyes fluttered open. Once she saw Donnie's face she began to giggle. Donnie smiled at her soft giggle. She was so precious.

"Good morning, Digital." He said sweetly. She smiled and giggled.

"Good mowning." The young girl spoke for the first time since he had found her. Then she looked around in confusion and asked a question Donnie never wanted the small girl to ask. "Whew is my bwotha?"

Donnie gave the girl a sad smile. "He...He's...on a long vacation. You probably won't see him for a while."

She grew a frown but nodded.

He got out of bed and picked up the fragile girl. He took out his T-phone and called his friend and crush April.

"Hello?"

"Hey, April. Um, I was wondering...do you have any toddler clothes, toys, or play pens?"

"Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah. Why do you need this again?"

"Well I...um...I found a toddler yesterday at the junk yard. Her parents were about to kill her. And if I am going to keep her I am going to need everything that she needs."

"Oh, poor girl. Sure I'll bring whatever I can."

"Thanks, April it means a lot."

"No problem." The line goes dead. Donnie smiles and walks out of his room as Digital grabs his mask tails and chews on it. As he walks into the living room Mikey exits his room and spots the two year old girl.

"Aw!" He cooes as he runs over to Donnie and the small girl. "Who is she, D?" Mikey asks as he tickles Digital's belly.

"This is Digital. I found her at the junk yard yesterday. Not easily though." He explained to Mikey how Digital had came into his position.

"Aw, poor baby. Can I hold her?" Mikey asked innocently. Donnie smiled and nodded. He handed the fragile toddler over to his innocent little brother. Mikey's face lit up as soon as Digital smiled up at him with the same blue eyes as her brother. The same blue eyes as her father.

She also had black hair growing on the top of her head. The same black hair as her brother. The same black hair as her mother. Mikey tickled Digital's stomach and she giggled and squealed. Donnie smiled. She was beautiful.

He had no intentions of being her father though. Nor had he thought about it.

"She's so cute, D. Why would her parents ever want to kill her?" Mikey asked as if the question was the hardest equation in the world.

Donnie sighed. "I have no idea why. Some people are just like that. Shredder's not even like that. At least he fed and raised Karai properly."

"Yeah, but he stole Karai from Splinter."

"You know what I mean, Mikey. Anyways, we really need to feed her. She's too thin for my liking." Donnie said as they walked to the kitchen.

"You don't have to tell me twice on that one, Donnie." Mikey said. It was pretty obvious in his defense.

"I just can't think of why he'd namer her Digital. It just seems unnatural."

"You shouldn't talk down about her name. Maybe there's meaning in it." Mikey said, trying to make light of the situation.

Donnie opened the fridge in search of foods that seemed easy for a two year old to eat. "Maybe you're right, Mike." Donnie finally found some applesauce and peaches. He decided he'd blend the peaches with the applesauce in the blender and feed it to her.

He made a makeshift highchair and placed Digital in it where she clapped and cheered. He blended the applesauce and peaches together. He put the blended concoction in a small bowl and found the smallest spoon they owned.

He walked over to Digital and sat in front of her on a chair. He placed the food in front of the curious baby and without a second thought she took the spon in her hand and ate the food in it. Though Donatello shouldn't have been surprised due to the fact she possibly hadn't eaten for weeks, he was.

Suddenly, Mikey jumped from his chair with a look of triumph on his face. "I did it! Alright!"

"What did you do, Mikey." Donnie asked as he kept spoon feeding Digital.

"I came up with Digital's nickname."

Donnie looked at him with confusion. "Nickname?"

Mikey smiled. "Well yeah, brah. Everyone in this family has a nickname, so she should too."

Donnie returned to watching Digital eat. "Shoot."

"Digi." Mikey said proudly.

Donnie raised an eyebrow and returned his attention to his baby brother. "Digi?"

"Yeah! It's perfect. Almost all of our nicknames end in the sound 'E'. See: Mikey, Donnie, Raphie. Now we have Digi."

Donnie rolled his eyes but couldn't help but smile at his brother's naming skills.

"Whatever you say, Mikey." Once the bowl was empty Donnie decided to give Digital a bath. He picked her up out of the makeshift highchair and carried her to the bathroom, passing by Leo on the way. Donnie was starting to believe that Leo felt guilty about the night before. Maybe he did. She was only two after all, but Donnie hadn't the slightest idea of why Leo had acted the way he did.

He entered the bathroom and sat the small girl on the closed toilet as a seat. "Stay here, Digi." He froze.
He had just unconsciously called the small girl the name his brother had suggested. He shook his head with a sigh and turned on the warm bath water.

Donnie could see that this girl wasn't much of a talker. But he wanted to learn about this girl's past. "Did you love your brother?"

Digital's face lit up. This was the first question the mutant turtle had asked her. "Yeah. He's the best bwother in the world." Donnie was surprised by the girl's good speech. Maybe she was highly educated.
But how would that be possible? The boy himself hardly looked like he had the type of clothing that he needed. Donnie and his brothers needed to realize at times that they didn't have it as bad as they thought.

"Did he cook for you?" Donnie couldn't stop the question from flying past his lips. He needed to know how well this girl was fed.

"Y-Yeah. He-He l-looked for food outside." The girl answered. "S-Sometimes he couldn't find food tough."
Donnie felt a pang in his chest. This girl sometimes went days and weeks without food. Just like he and his brothers had when they were younger.

"Were your parents nice?" Donnie looked at the girl as he asked this question and wasn't surprised when she shook her head.

"They were meanies. They-They beat my bwother up. Th-They didn't feed us like pawents aw supposed to." The girl spoke. She then pointed at a bruise on her knee. "Fist." Then she pointed to a scar on her arm. "Gwass." Then a bruise on her head. "Wock."

He hadn't noticed the bruise on her head before. Perhaps she had a concussion. Or maybe some terrible damage had been done other than trauma. She didn't act like it though. In fact, she acted much more advanced than most kids her age. It was amazing. Maybe as she grew older she'd find a love for science.

"Did your brother go to school?" Donnie asked. Digital shook her head.

"He stopped in fifthe gwade. He taught me how to wead and wite."

Donnie snapped his head up at such a statement. "You know how to read and write?"

She nodded. "He said I had to. Incase something went wong." Donnie understood. Her brother taught her how to write a letter to someone if he ever died and her parents were still abusive to tell them that her parents were abusive.

She opened her locket and looked at the sixteen year old boy inside. Donnie felt sad that he had been taken at such a young age. Granted the boy was a year older than Donnie himself, he still felt very saddened at his death. But what a way to go. Protecting your sibling. He was a true hero. "What was his name?"

Digital placed her small finger on her brother's picture. "Cameron." Donnie took note on how she was able to say his name with the 'R' sound. She must've been taught how to say his name properly incase something went wrong as well.

Donnie stopped the bath water when the water was half way in the tub. He picked up the small girl and undressed her. He wasn't fazed by her human appearence. He'd done enough research on humans to know almost everything about them. He placed the toddler in the warm water and watched as she splashed around happily.

"Wast time Cameron gave me a bath was May." The girl splashed. Donnie froze. It was July. This poor girl hadn't even had proper access to toiletry nessecities. He got bubble bath out and poured the mixture into the tub creating bubbles instantly as the soap made contact with the warm water.

"When's your birthday, Digi?" There was the nickname again.

"Juwy twenty-sixth." That was two weeks away. The girl would be three soon. Donnie smiled. They'd be able to celebrate her first birthday with them fairly soon.

"That's very soon." Donnie pointed out to the girl. She just shrugged.

"So?" She asked as if it wasn't that big of a deal. Donnie was very surprised.

"Have you never celebrated your birthday before?" Donnie asked already expecting the answer he got which was Digital shaking her head.

"Mommy and daddy said they weren't special. So we neva cellebwated them." The girl answered while placing the bubbles around her mouth much like a beard.

"Well, things are going to be different here. We're going to have a party and presents." Donnie told the girl as he dumped a cup of water on her head. She looked at him as if he were crazy.

"Is that what people do on theiw biwthdays?" She asked as if it were the hardest equation in math ever.

Donnie smiled revealing his gap tooth. "Yep. It's a lot of fun." He dumped another cup of water on her head. "We do them on our birthdays and now it's your turn."

She giggled as the water collided with her head and streamed from her hair very similar to a waterfall. "How many bwothers do you have?"

He smiled. "I have three crazy, fun loving, and diverse brothers. You'll like them and they'll grow to love you."

Suddenly the girl's face went dead serious. "You guys won't beat me too, will you?" She asked innocently.

He held the girl's hand. "We'd never dream of it."
