I sat under the sheet, the guys hadn't said anything. I couldn't see anything but I was surprised I wasn't yet turn back into a turtle. I felt someone pulling the sheet so I was wrapped in it fully, then it was slowly pulled down so my head was free. I stared at Leo who was the one who had pulled the sheet down. He stared at me and smiled before stepping back. I looked at Raph, Mikey and Splinter who all stood together smiling. I then looked at Donnie, he was the only one who wasn't smiling. He picked up a small hand mirror off the desk and walked up to me. "Eclips." He said handing me the mirror. "You know that girl we never found? The one you were so intent of finding?"
I nodded and looked down at the mirror I held in my hand. "Oh my god." I breathed. I dropped the mirror and stepped back. My heart begun to race. I continued to look down at my hands. I had 5 fingers and my skin was so light. I slowly felt around my head. I pulled at the weird bits of flesh on each side of my head, then ran my hand over my scalp and through knotted hair. "I'm her." I said looking at the others.
Donnie nodded.
"How did you know?" I asked.
"I did more research and found out the girl had a pet turtle." Donnie said as he picked up a photo of the girl, Me and a turtle.
"So?"
"The turtle is named Eclips, Its trouble." Donnie said.
I felt my heart sink. Mikey ran over with a chair so I could sit down.
"Eclips I'm going to explain something to you." Donnie begun. "Your real name is Crystal More. You went missing over a year ago and-
"No." I began to cry. "No no!" I shook my head. Leo and Raph came to my side.
"Eclips its ok." Leo stroked my hair.
"This isn't happening." I covered my eye's with my hands.
"Donatello that is enough for now." Splinter said. "Please call April, see if she can bring some clothes for Eclips."
Donnie sighed and nodded before leaving the Lab.
"What will happen? Do I have to leave?" I looked up at Splinter.
Splinter hugged me and lifted me up. "Eclips you have a family." Splinter said as he carried me out to the living room. "I know this will be hard but you must return to them."
"No." I hugged Splinter tightly. "You're my family."
Splinter sighed and sat down. "Eclips I have live for 15 years thinking my daughter was dead. I know what it's like to lose someone and I do not want your family to suffer." Splinter ran his hands through my hair.
"I want to see me again?" I said sitting up.
"You what?" Splinter asked.
"I want to look at myself." I got up and walked to the bathroom. I stared at my reflection. I didn't look exactly like I did when I was first human. I had long messy light brown hair almost blond. My eyes were still green just not as bright, instead they were now a dark green with hints of blue. I smiled as I notice I still had Mikey's freckles. My skin was lightly tanned. I frowned as I pulled the sheet back to look at my body. I was skinny and had no muscle. I was also shorter and looked more like a 12 year old. I sighed and wrapped myself in the sheet again before walking back into the living room where my brothers were now sitting together.
"You look cute." Leo said as I sat beside him and Mikey.
"I feel weird." I said as Mikey poked my cheek.
"You're like… pink." He giggled.
I smiled slightly. "And you're green."
"So any idea on our next move?" Raph asked.
"Eclips is going to go back to her family." Leo sighed sadly.
"But we're her family." Mikey said.
"It's ok Mikey." I said finally accepting my new fate. "It's not like I won't visit."
"Yeah and who knows maybe you have siblings too." Donnie added.
"They won't be as awesome as you guys." I smiled, the others smiled back. We sat in silence for a couple of minute until Mikey started to cry.
"I don't want you to go." He cried. "You're our sister!" He jumped forwarded and hugged me tightly.
"Mikey…." I hugged him back. Raph got up and grabbed Mikey's shell, pulling his off me.
"Come on bro." He said as he sat down with Mikey beside him. "Don't make this any harder." He sighed.
Mikey buried his head under Raph's neck. Raph frowned and rubbed Mikey's shell. I looked at Leo, he gave me a small smile then frowned. "We're losing you again." He said as he held back his tears. I sighed and look across at Donnie. He looked at me for a seconded then at the floor.
"No way!" Casey's voice boomed. I looked up at him and April who both stood frozen.
"Hey." I said quietly. Casey jumped in front of me and smiled.
"No way." He said again making me laugh. "You're not Eclips."
I nodded. "Yep." I smiled.
April made a girly scream as she jumped on the spot. "Oh you look so cute. Come on." April pulled me up and towards my room.
Casey sat down next to Leo. "So…" He looked at Donnie then at Mikey and Raph. "She fair game?" He grinned.
"You touch her and I'll kill you!" Raph growled. Mikey sat up and wiped his eyes.
"What she's totally cute." Casey said.
"So what April no longer interest you?" Leo asked looking at Donnie with a smiled.
"April's hot but Eclips- Hey what's her name anyway?" Casey asked.
"Crystal." Donnie said. "And she's not fair game."
"I was only joking." Casey lent back. "But she's still totally cute."
"Shut up Casey." I laughed as I walked back into the living room with April. I was wearing denim shorts and a black and white singlet.
"Sorry." Casey put his hands up as to surrender. "I was wrong, you're not cute." He smirked "You tot-
Leo quickly covered his mouth. Splinter walked into the living room. "Eclips come, I'll brush your hair for you." I nodded and walked to Splinter. I sat on the floor in front of him.
"So when are you leaving?" April asked.
"Soon I guess." I frowned.
"Eclips you will always be welcome here." Splinter said.
"I know." I sighed.
"Hey think of it this way Clips. Now your human you can hang out with me and April." Casey smiled.
"April and I." Splinter corrected.
"And I can teach you to ice-skate." Casey added ignoring Splinter.
"Sounds like Casey's trying to replace us." Raph said.
"There." Splinter finished brushing my hair and had tied it up in a ponytail. "We should get moving before it gets too late."
I gulped. "One more day." I said.
Splinter gave me a funny look as he didn't understand.
"C-can I stay, just for one more day. I'm not ready to go." I said.
Splinter smiled and nodded. "Only another day." He said as he kissed my cheek.
I smiled and looked at the other who smiled too.
:( Its coming... the end... what will I do with my life?
