Chapter 1:
New Turtles in Town?
It has been about two months since that lovely day, but even with no alien activity, no Shredder mayhem, and no rogue Bishop experiments present New York still had thugs to bust. "Boss, we're in." An eye patch wearing man commented to a flip holographic projector as a truck was being pulled up behind him.
"Excellent, and the goods?" The boss questioned to the informant just to make sure that everything was going smoothly.
"Tons of high tech loot. Just like you said, boss. Just like you said." The man on the field answered back as his friends were carrying crates into the truck in a neat and orderly manner. Unknown to any of them several unknown figures saw this action from a rooftop and decided to stop it.
"Look out!" Another, who looked up just in time, shouted before receiving a blow as did three others. As the fight began there was a different matter in a different part of the city.
"I'm afraid it's true King Kaid. I'm not your step brother. I'm your half sister." An actor on the screen at a hidden base which caused the viewer to gasp in alarm.
"We interrupt this program for a Channel 6 news exclusive." A voice said from the screen when the words 'Special News Report' appeared on the screen causing the viewer to be a bit more serious.
"There was a daring robbery earlier today at a high tech Midtown library. A nearby surveillance captured this image of four bizarre green creatures." The anchorman said to the listeners and activated the image he spoke of causing panic in one of the watchers.
"Leonardo." The master of the four called out the first of four who moments ago held a conversation with a friend:
"So, that's why people forgot about that report about aliens among them." The swords-turtle stated to the Golden Retriever before him. "Because your boss hacked into US history and removed all forms of our existence from all records.
"That's pretty much it." The speed creature answered back before they both heard the eldest's name.
"Time to get to work." Leo said before leaping down to where his master was.
"Michelangelo." Splinter issued for the slacker to come. Said turtle was also hanging out with their canine friends - Blitz to be exact. The two were skateboarding and pushing Muzzle at the same time.
"Donatello." The father issued. Said turtle was having a conversation as well:
"Thanks again for helping me build Cody's device and send Serling back to his time." The smart turtle sated to the smart canine beside him.
"It is no trouble at all, turtle-sapian." The blue/white furred one answered back before they heard the rodent's voice.
"Well, I better go." Don said before pole-vaulting into the room.
"Raphael." Splinter said to the final of the four who was sparring with the fighter of the six, and enjoying himself until he heard the call, so after a sucker punch to his jaw the angered turtle hurried to his father.
"You rang?" Mikey questioned: trying to use one of the best known lines of all, but kept his own voice.
"I fear you have been careless tonight, my sons. The secret of our existence have been compromised." The father figure commented to the ones before him.
"Wait. Tonight?" The eldest questioned since as far as the turtle knew he and Hunter have been maintaining their swords.
"I haven't been out." Donatello informed since he the time window took all day and up to a few moments to get it fully functional even with Exile's tech factor and Shag's endless assortment of stuff. "Mikey?" He offered to his brother.
"Negatory." The slacker answered back since he had spent the day skateboarding in the tunnels with Blitz and Muzzle.
"Master Splinter, we've been cooped in here with you and the dogs all night." Raphael defended himself and his brothers as he recalled the moment the six stopped by he and her nearly never stopped sparring.
"Then how in the world do you explain - this." Splinter questioned to the lot of them before pointing to the screen, so they can see what he meant with their own eyes.
"The image of the four creatures is a bit grainy, but even so you can make out what appear to be four large turtles." The anchorman said as one member of his cast enhanced the image to cover all watcher's screens. Seeing this with their own eyes caused the acolytes to become a bit concerned.
"It's…it's gotta be some kinda gag, right?" The red turtle questioned since as far as he knew, in this time, they were the only turtle-sapiens.
"I am not laughing, Raphael." The father said in response to the statement, and it was then the ten tried to get serious at the situation at hand. As the anchorman spoke of seismic activities Don had already flipped over to the computer to get some answers.
"Here, I got the image." Donatello informed them after a few keystrokes. The image was presented on the computer screen - big enough for all to see. "They do look like us." The smart one commented at the image before him.
"Whoever those blokes are?" Colleen questioned while gesturing to the picture before them. The one thing that Leo was seeing was that the picture also showed the thieves.
"Who are they fighting?" The eldest questioned causing Don to fix a certain part of the grainy picture and they saw a familiar symbol on one of their arms.
"The Purple Dragons." Raph exclaimed once he saw the item in question.
"So…Hun's behind all this turtle-y fun?" The comical on questioned since that was the best solution he could think of. At that moment someone activated a web-chat option on the brainiac's computer.
"Are you guys seeing this? It's all over the news." The Wed red head said as she sent over the picture that they were looking at. This gave the group a bit of concern since he did not want to trouble Shepard to fix another one of their problems.
"We see it April, and we're about to get to the bottom of it." The swords-turtle informed her before he, Raphael, Donatello, and Michelangelo ran off.
"Let's show up the turtle-boys." The Doberman said and was about to pursue, but the father held up his walking stick as a means to stop them.
"I believe this is a turtles only matter. If they need us. They will let us know." Splinter informed them before returning to his stories. Up on the surface at Purple Dragon's HQ which was now a skyscraper similar to Karai's but not advanced, Hun was getting a progress report from his men.
"That was a sweet score, boss. We grabbed all kinds of high tech goodies." One of the warriors informed his boss who was doing his best to deal with a fly that has been bugging him for hours. "But the real prize is right in here." The man added as his buddy was unlocking a big, metal door.
"We got `em, boss. We finally got `em. Say hello to the Ninja Turtles." The second man said before another flicked a switch which showed the creatures in question.
"Huh?" Hun answered back since these guys were nothing to the turtles he knew of. The ones that he knew of had darker scale color, biker-type elbow/knee pads, no logos on belts, and the red one would have already called him: Lardbutt by now.
"You were expecting, maybe, somebody else?" The on in orange questioned to the big guy before them.
"Uh…I don't know who these freaks are, but they're not the turtles." Their experienced fighter informed them since he also knew that most of his men would be limping back to base if it were the turtles he knew of, but they were all fine.
"Chumley, if we're not the turtles I don't know who is." The red one said to the leader of the group with the three others saying agreeing statements to what he just said.
"We, uh, found this on `em." The one with the eye patch commented as he tried to get back on topic.
"Ninja type stuff." An afro soldier commented while holding swords and a staff while his friend held the nunchucks and sais. "Right boss?" He questioned as his friend showed off something that didn't go with the weapons.
"Hmm?" The former follower of Shredder said as he picked up a small container of some pink liquid. The man's thoughts were interrupted by the men on the far wall.
"I hate to interrupt your thought, but don't you owe us a phone call." The one in purple questioned to the big guy in a sincere tone.
"Like, I totally know who I'm calling." The orange one stated since he knew his brothers were with him on what he was about to say.
"Pizza delivery." The four shouted before talking to one another about what toppings they wanted. Hun wanted answers on the canisters, and knew that these strange men were the best source of information.
"What is this?" He asked the Michelangelo imposter in his darkest, deepest voice he knew he could make.
"That's just ooze. We fight ol` bucket-breath for that stuff all the time." The 'M' warrior answered back - unfazed by the scary voice used on him.
"Old bucket-breath?" The human questioned since he was unfamiliar with that name.
"You know, ol` frying pan face." The Leonardo imposter stated.
"Crome-dome?" The 'M' warrior stated.
"Metal Mouth." The 'D' warrior informed.
"Tin Teeth." The 'R' warrior said out to him. Their words were getting on Hun and their best guard dog's nerves, but mostly the humans.
"What are you freaks talking about?" The former member of the Foot questioned after standing up right since none of those names rung any bells to him.
"A mind like a steel trap on this one. Know what I'm saying." The 'R' warrior said while pointing to Hun. The man in question leaned over and turned to see what the creature was talking to, but only saw a wall.
"Hello, we're talking about Shredder." The 'L' turtle informed after deciding using their foe's real name over his nicknames would clear all the confusion, or at least most of it.
"What does this have to do with the Shredder?" The former employee of said man questioned after walking up to the swords-turtle with container still in hand.
"Like Michelangelo said - it's just some mutagen we stopped Shred-head from getting his claws on." The other staff wielder informed. Explaining to these new men what was in that container along with the other that one of the soldiers was holding.
"Mutagen?" Hun questioned and knew that the Shredder dabbled in changing humans into earth burrowing monsters, but that was about it. "Hmm?" He questioned while unscrewing one end and added, "Hmm" When the same fly as before same down for a drink.
"I'd be careful with that if I were you." The blue masked one warned in a calm tone. Thinking nothing of the insect Hun flicked it away causing it the fly to hit ground. Almost instantly the fly transformed into a slightly bigger, and angrier bug which was knocked out by a left punch by Hun.
'He would have made our fights with Stockman a breeze.' Donatello thought after seeing the one punch drop.
"This could really come in handy." Hun said after seeing the small sample did do a common housefly. "Especially if the Shredder is back." He said to the others once the one with the patch gave him the rest.
"Uh…what do you want us to do with these guys, boss?" The aftro one said and gestured over to the four as his employer was walking away.
"I've already got four turtles to worry about. These guys are superfluous." The blonde haired man said to him while walking out of the vault. Despite being a street punk the others did know what that 's' word mean.
"Nice knowing ya, superfluous." One soldier said as he aimed his blaster at the four. They all had a good laugh and were about to follow orders until their boss spoke out.
"What the!" Hun said before being kicked back into the room causing a twin domino effect on the Purple Dragons in the room. "No!" The mountain shouted after dropping one of the vials on the ground as he fell. The container splatter on the guard dog's handler.
"Hope you don't mind, but we let ourselves in." The red one informed in a battle ready pose. At this moment Michelangelo saw something that could only be the ones from the news feed.
"Actually it kinda looks like we're already here." The chucker said as he walked forward a bit and pointed at the four on the wall. His brothers couldn't believe it either - other Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
"Hey, those dudes looks just like us." The 'D' warrior said to his brothers after the other four saw the new arrivals.
"Don't flatter yourselves." The second red one said: feeling insulted over what he just said. The Purple Dragons got back on their feet and opened fire on the four that were free.
"That's our cue." The comical one said as he, Leonardo, and Donatello leapt from the still recovering Hun and into the fray. They were doing good: scoring a few good hits, but one of the Dragon took aim at the battle crazy one.
"Raph, look out!" The swords-turtle shouted as one was aiming for the red one. The one in question heard the warning and cart wheeled away while the orange to the wall hung his feet into the air, so he wouldn't get blasted.
"Thanks, bro." Both red warriors said after the blue one kicked the attacker. The one that was free looked at his captured duplicate out of anger.
"Ahh!" The one in shackles shouted before Hun back-handed the red one he knew was the real turtle. Once slammed by that fist the hero in question hit one of the walls hard.
"Scuse me!" The chucker shouted as he leaped from head to head until he reached the captive ones. Once there he grabbed a thick wire that kept the shackles shut. "Sweet, they've got little initials on their belt buckles - like superheroes." The comic reader said after seeing the silver circles on their waists. A couple of dragons tried to shoot at the wall hanger, but they only ended up freeing the other orange and red turtles.
"Fascinatin`. Little help here, Mikey." Raph said as he tried to get back to his feet after hitting the wall, and noticed the mountain was closing in. The other red and orange regained their weapons, which were dropped after the thugs played dominoes, and decided to help the others.
"You got it!" Both chuckers shouted before looking at one another in awe, but the second orange hero quickly went to work.
"Cowabunga!" The second Michelangelo shouted before throwing one of his nunchucks on the ceiling fan which fell from it's spot, and landed right on the boss of this grunts. "Cool off, dude." The attacker said once the deed has been done.
"Ha. Ha. Cool off, he says." The Utrom Michelangelo said with a laugh since he did believe that that was pretty funny. The comment and the agreeing comment only angered the Utrom Raphael.
"Turtle Power!" The four shouted once the other Mikey set the swords-turtle and staff wielder free and the other Raph gave them their weapons back.
"How can you not love these guys." The chucker said before elbow dropping one of the thugs. The Shredder's former lackie used a fan blade as a club on Utrom Leonardo who dodged the attack, and sucker kicked the dragon behind him.
'Got to back up the boss.' The second wave of fighters thought after opening the door and opened fire. Their target leaped onto and away from the wall only to look up and see something interesting.
'Cheaply constructed walls? Perfect!' The turtle thought and decided to set this new plan into motion. He wall-ran on the wall that once held the other turtles, and as he was hoping for the holes in the wall caused a section of the room to collapse.
"Whoa! Now that was off the wall." The new orange guy said after the wall fell on Hun and the dragons.
"Come on!" The angered one said while grabbing the new Mikey's arm and dragged him through the hole. Five others followed after them the Utrom team knew that Hun and his men were alright since the blonde one was probably holding up the wall by himself.
"Let's stay in touch." The other Donatello stated to the fallen leader as he jarred the other containers of mutagen from the exposed hand before placing them on his belt, and followed the others. After much building leaping the four stopped at an apartment-like section of New York.
"Alright, time for some answers. Who the shell are you guys?!" The angered one said calmly before shouting in anger since, to him, this made no sense.
"I was about to ask you the same question." The second one in purple answered back since it was the truth.
"Don't get cute." The angry one said while poking the turtle's chest as a means to stress his point.
"We can't help it. We were born that way." The second Michelangelo said before batting his eyes. Seeing the his brother ball up his fist and about to use these four as punching bags the other Leo stepped in.
"Look, we just risked our shells rescuing you from Hun and the Purple Dragons. So, I think we're entitled to some answers." The Utrom Leo said to them before he and his brothers waited for their reply.
"He's right." The second Raph said as the other four got closer together.
"They've earned it." The second Michelangelo said with a smile.
"Absolutely." The second Donatello said since he knew that they were right.
"So, spill." The aggressive one stated since he wanted the answers so that he could forget that this whole thing never happened.
"You bet, but after Lunch." The second Leo said, but saw his orange and red brothers heading for the edge of the building. At that moment the other blue and purple grabbed them.
"What's the big idea?" The other sai warrior shouted while adjusting his headband after the pullback.
"These guys are probably like us, and can't just walk down the streets in their natural skin." The other swords-turtle explained before adding, "But on our way here I did see a few things that might help us." Their leader lead them to the side of the building that faced an alley with clothes hanging in it.
"Now , I see what you want." The other two said as one before getting to work. With ninja speed, or close to it, the four came back to the roof with gray hoody jackets and blue jeans. Strangely enough they also had a pair of woman's jeans and a bright pink hoody.
"Suit up turtles." The other swords-turtle instructed, and as expected the orange one was the one that chose the female outfit.
"Looks like that Mikey has your sense of fashion, bro." The red one said with a cocky smile on his face. As the two got into a discussion the other four leaped into the ally and merged into the pedestrians.
"Guy's, they're getting away." The Utrom Donatello warned as he watched them leave. This caused the arguers to walk over to the ledge and watch the wannabe's walk away. "If they get discovered by the wrong people…" The smart one trailed off since he knew that there was still Bishop, the Foot, and the mob out to get them.
"Come on. Time to call in reinforcements." Their field leader said causing them all to run back home to get seven others.
