Bebop and Rocksteady had kidnapped you, you were mutant lizard. They wanted to be sure that nobody would find you or them, so they hid somewhere that you didn’t know, and if you didn’t know where it was, the turtles wouldn’t know were it was either.

Bebop: “Man, this lizard is so much bigger than I thought it would be!”

Rocksteady: “Quiet, comrade! They can hear us!”
