[There's the sound of the communicator being fumbled with, and soft child noises of frustration and curiosity.]

[Then Don speaks, voice very, very young; an uncertain stage whisper and wavering like a child at the end of his ropes. The words muffle halfway through as he accidentally puts his thumb over the mouthpiece]

M-master Splinter?

[Long pause, ( Read more... )

My son - calm yourself. It is all right.

[Splinter has gathered enough to realize that very, very strange things are going on. He doesn't know why Donatello is talking like a child, but...]

Do you know where you are?

Father!

[Don makes a sobbing sound before it cuts off and he breathes deeply]

I-I don't know. It has a lot of metal in it and two desks, but I think one was a bed, and...and it's real messy.

[and fascinating, but Don's hiding so he can' explore properly]

He's with me in his room, Splinter.

He's a little shaken up, but he's okay.

Ah, thank you Miss O'Neil. I shall be over shortly.

[He is there SO FAST. Like a ninja - wait. Exactly like a ninja.]

[Don is not surprised by his father's entrance, but he jumps a bit all the same. He still has tear tracks on his face, and he moves a bit unsteadily, but his smile is completely honest and delighted as he climbs from where he'd sat down near April, playing with a bit of metal, to run for him.]

[Daddy!]

[April smiles, relieved to see the old teacher. She waves from her seat, but otherwise leaves the reunion uninterrupted.]

[Splinter is VERY happy to see his son... if not rather confused. He kneels down to hug Donatello, just as he did when they were little. Donatello IS little. What...?

More boat magic, he can only presume.]

Are you well, my son?

[Don nods, hiding his face in his father's robe and clinging tightly with little hands. He doesn't see anything wrong with this.]

Y-yes. Miss April helped me. She said she was your friend?

Yes. April is -

[Donatello doesn't remember. He is as he was, many years ago. Splinter just smiles and places a hand on Donatello's head.]

Well. It is a long story, one I will relate to you later. Now we must locate your brothers.

Miss O'Neil, do you know where they might have gone?

[Don frowns. He doesn't want to know later; he wants to know now. How come Master Splinter had friends they didn't know about? Especially human friends? Why does Master Splinter look different? Why are they on a boat? Why did it hurt when Don kicked that guy in the throat? Why's this room have so much stuff in it? Why aren't the others with him already? Why would April know where they went? Why doesn't Master Splinter? What's going one?]

[Don takes a deep breath to blurt out all of his questions and then some in one go, but cuts himself off when his father starts talking to April. He wasn't supposed to interrupt people.]

...'kay.

[Don reach up to wrap his little hands around Splinter's, still frowning, but quiet for now.]
