I was confused, and it was giving me an even worse headache. Kya had been silent for the last half an hour, and it was driving me bonkers. The way she suddenly dropped what they were talking about. Not to mention I just found out my baby sister was alive, Kayla, the one thing that mattered to me most.
I decided to try to piece together what clues I had. I started from the beginning.
I knew the guys' names, kinda like how I knew my sister's. I also knew April's, but it was different from how I knew the guys's. I was like downloading information onto a hard drive. While with the guys, it felt like I knew them. What else...I got my first 'memory flash', if they are even are memories, when those pervs drugged me. So maybe my fear of needles triggered it? How do I even know that they really are memories? Well there's the scar on my arm and the dream I had about getting it. I saw Shredder and my sister in my flashes and nightmares. So far, everything seems to check out, and what about this project Viper business?
I glanced at Kya. She was busy messing around with several different vials of liquid. I could ask her for help, but how much would she tell me?
"Mrs. Kya?" I asked with a weak voice.
She turned and smiled at me. "Just Kya is fine, did you need something Viper?"
"Yes, I do. I can't seem to remember much, could you tell me more about project Viper?"
"Well, the goal was to enhance the test subjects. You were the main subject if you don't remember. Subjects one to eighteen sadly didn't make it. Though you, subject 19, did surprisingly well. Not as well as subject twenty, but still good." She went back to mixing something.
"Subject twenty, could you tell me more about them?"
"Of course." She squinted at a green vial of something, swirling it around in her hand. "Well after it was made apparent that you weren't stable, not to mention your mental state after the failure of mission A-2, we were forced to shutdown project Viper. Now, this is where subject twenty comes in. When she found out that we had a breakthrough with our new serum and where able to open the project back up, she jumped at the opportunity to try it. She's done very well with it. She does have some side-effects of course. Shredder seems fine with them though." She smiled at the black colored liquid. After pouring it in a small vile, she looked over at me. "Mission B-1 and B-2 are completed, now all that's left is B-3 and B-4. You will be able to see mission B-3 tonight." She looked away, her smile falling slightly.
"What is mission B-3?" I asked, my curiosity spiking.
"You'll see, don't worry. Now, time to get you fixed up." She began undoing the restraints on my legs.
"I'd rather know now if you don't mind." I could tell I was pushing at something she probably didn't want me asking about.
She swallowed as she began on my other leg. Her smile had vanished. "I...I'm not supposed to tell you."
"Why, why can't you tell me?" I pressed.
She sighed and started on my left wrist. I watched her carefully. As soon as my left arm was free I grabbed her hand.
"Please." I gave her a desperate look.
"They're going through with the extermination phase."
My eyes widened at this news. I let her go and she freed my last arm.
I sat up and stretched. Everything seemed fine. No more broken bones, nothing bleeding. I did note the fact however that I was in a plain white dress. Shoving the fact that someone had dressed me out of my thoughts, I stood up and walked over to her.
"What, or who, are they exterminating?"
"I really shouldn't tell you..."
"I promise that I won't tell anyone that you told me." The fear on her face was apparent. What ever it was, she wasn't supposed to tell me, that's for sure.
"The turtles."
I froze, unable to breath. I tried to calm down, if I wanted to do anything about this, I would need to find out more.
"R-really?" I cursed myself for being unable to keep my voice from shaking.
"I'd rather not talk about it."
From the pale look on her face I could tell it wouldn't do any good to keep prying, but I needed more information.
"So Kya, what was mission A-2?"
"Camelli- I mean, Viper. Please stop asking. You really don't want to know."
"I think it's my place to decide if I want to know or not." I gave a stubborn look.
She gave a half-hearted smile. "You want to know?"
I gave a nod.
"Then let's get those memories back."
Mikey stood on the docks, just thirty minutes till the meeting. He caught sight of just the person he was looking for. The Masked Assassin. With bravery he didn't know he had, he walked up to them.
"I want to make a deal."
"Well?" The Masked Assassin crossed their arms across their chest.
"First I need to know something. You work for Shredder don't you."
"You're smarter than you look." They began to pace back and forth. "Yes my master is Shredder."
"I want to do a trade. Me for Viper." His face was set in a cold, determined look. Though on the inside, he was shaking in fear. This person could probably kill him with a flick of their wrist.
"So, one annoying, loud mouth turtle, for my coward sister?"
"You're what?!" Mikey gave a look of shock, stumbling back a few feet at this news.
"What? Surprised?" She took a few steps towards him. She touched something on her neck and her voice switched to a young girl's. "I'm going to enjoy this."
Mikey was thrown in the air as she raised her arm. Her arm slammed down, the orange clad turtle falling as well. His head hit the ground hard and everything went black.
I stared at the pill in Kya's hand.
"This will give me my memory back?" I asked skeptically.
"Yes, but be warned, this is going to hurt."
I shrugged and downed the pill.
I don't think in my short fourteen years of life I had ever felt something quite this horrible. I was frozen in pain. My heart beat pounded in my head. It was so loud I couldn't think. My mind was blank. I couldn't see. I couldn't move. I was surprised I could breath. My insides burned like they were covered in acid. That's when it hit. I could remember.
"Slow down!" I laughed at my younger sister as she ran ahead.
It was nice to see her laugh, especially after the accident. Our parent were killed in a car crash. One year later, me and my sister were living with our adopted parents. At first Kayla didn't speak for a week straight. It broke my heart seeing her like that.
I ran to catch up, scooping her up into a bear hug when I was close enough. This was the best feeling in the world. I helped her onto my shoulders and went inside.
"Looks like someone's having a good time." Bill said. He wasn't my real dad, but he made Kayla happy. That's all that mattered. Rachael, his wife, my adopted mom, was making dinner.
"Wash up you two." She said setting the table.
I set Kayla down and she ran down the hall to the bathroom. For a eleven year-old, she sure did weigh a ton.
The door bell rung. "I'll get it." I made my way down the hall and opened the door. A tall man in a suit stared back at me. I would later on learn that this man, wasn't really a man. Just a shell used by the Krang.
"Oh? Can I help you Sir?" He walked inside, shoving me aside. "Hey wait!"
I did a mix between a run and a walk to the kitchen. I was confused when I saw Bill and Rachael talking to the man.
"The one known as Shredder is needing the one known as Subject nineteen." Said the stranger to Bill.
"Understood, but do you really need Kayla?"
"The one known as Shredder is needing both."
"I'll tell Camellia to get her bag packed Rachael you get Kay-"
"The Krang shall be the one's having the one know as Subject nineteen and the one known as Kayla do the thing known as packing bag."
I sprinted past them as I heard Kayla Scream. Bill and Rachael yelled something as went by, but I was more focused on my sister, who was screaming bloody-murder.
"Kayla?!" I burst into the bathroom. A man who looked exactly like the one I'd just seen before was trying to tie my sister up. I slammed into him, the impact forcing him off her.
I scooped up my sister and ran. I almost made it out the back door when another one of those men blocked the way.
How many of them were there?!
I dropped Kayla. "Run! Go get help!" I yelled at her. She nodded and slipped past the man as I tackled him. It didn't do much, he barely went back back a few feet.
I was terrified. I would have been frozen in fear if the adrenaline hadn't kept me going.
With nowhere's else to go, I made a break for the stairs. I tried to run to the the phone in my room, but once again another guy blocked my way. I was cornered. Nowhere to turn.
I'd always been one of those people that when I had no path to take, I made my own. So I made my own...through a window...from the second story...
Ya, not my best decision ever.
The ground was softer than I thought it would be, but not by much. I had cuts on my arms from the glass, and I was pretty sure that my wrist was broken. Though, that wasnt my main priority at the time. Especially since my sister was screaming again.
Clutching my arm to my chest, I ran towards to noise. When I got to the front of the street my face paled at the site before me. My sister was bleeding, her white shirt was drenched.
I snapped. All I could see was red. I ran at the man point the gun at my sister. I grabbed it from his hand faster then I knew what was doing. I pointed it at myself and knelled next to my younger sister.
"Do what you want with me, but get medical help for her right now or I pull the trigger." I swallowed, I didn't feel as confident as I sounded.
"The one known as subject nineteen is needed alive by orders of the one known as Shredder. Medical help will be gotten for the one known as Kayla."
I gave a sigh of relief as one of the men began putting pressure on my sisters wound. The gun in my hand was confiscated. We were loaded into two different vans, much to my displeasure.
This was going to be interesting.
