I do not own TMNT.
A/N: This is the sequel to my story "Alone." I recommend reading that first before reading this one!
It was a bright, cool summer day. The sun was shining and there was a slight breeze in the air. The occupants of New York City were enjoying the weather, talking gaily and playing with water balloons, having no other care in the world.
However, things weren't so bright in the Foot Headquarters.
"I want those turtles finished NOW! Especially that turtle, Michelangelo, who dared to turn traitor!" Shredder yelled to a foot ninja that was standing by Shredder for no apparent reason.
"But Master, we are no match for the turtles," the foot ninja said.
"Then go train and become better ninjas so they are no match for YOU!" Shredder snapped.
"But Master, that will take a while," the foot ninja said, oblivious to the anger in Shredder's voice.
Shredder glared at the foot ninja. "Then use the weapon that seems harmless but creates the most damage done!"
"Y-yes, Master," the foot ninja faltered before leaving.
Meanwhile, the turtles were having their nightly patrol.
"So far we haven't even run into any bad guys," Raph, the hotheaded turtle grumbled.
"I guess no one's in the mood to commit any crimes today," Donnie replied.
"You mean tonight," Mikey corrected. "We only go topside at night, not day time!"
"Yeah, yeah, whatever," Donnie muttered. He hated being corrected, especially since he was the brains of the bunch.
"Looks like there's no crimes for tonight," Leo said, scanning the city. "Who's up for a race?"
"Me!" Mikey jumped excitedly. "There's no way you dudes can beat me!"
"If you keep bragging, you'll be the loser, bonehead," Raph said as they all began to race, jumping from rooftop to rooftop. Mikey was soon in the lead with Donnie the last, as usual. Raph and Leo both tied second.
"Can't believe I lost to shell-for-brains again," Raph mumbled. No one heard him, though.
"Guess it's time to go home," Leo said. The turtles started leaping over the rooftops again, looking for the nearest manhole to return to the lair.
They had only jumped four buildings before Leo told them to stop. "Shh, someone's watching us," he whispered, his eyes darting around to see who was there.
"I hope it means trouble. Then we can kick their shells," Raph said. He had spoken too loud, though. A group of shadowy creatures gracefully landed onto the rooftop the turtles were on.
"The Foot ninjas!" Leo recognized. The four green brothers began to fight the ninjas. However, they were tired and worn out from the race they had earlier, so they didn't do so well.
Leo could feel his eyes drooping as he dodged swords and shurikens flying past him. How much longer would they have to fight them?
As if reading his thoughts, the foot ninjas disappeared. All they left behind was a small, brown journal.
"Hey, check this out," Mikey said picking up the journal.
"Mikey, put that down!" Leo hissed. "It's from the Foot, so it's probably dangerous."
"A journal dangerous? That's crazy! This could be really helpful! It might have Shredder's newest plans inside!" Mikey argued. His hand reached the corner of the journal, getting ready to open it.
"Mikey, don't-" Leo was too late. Mikey had opened the journal. Leo held his breath, expecting something to happen.
Mikey laughed. "See Leo? Told ya it was harmless!" He flipped through the pages, only to find them blank. "Aww, I thought there would be at least something in here..."
Mikey reached the last page. "Woah, look at this!" He showed his brothers a picture of a waterfall surrounded by flowers, trees, and lots of animals. It looked very realistic.
"Woah," Donnie breathed. "It almost looks like-"
He was interrupted by a roaring wind that picked up the turtles. The turtles struggle to escape it, but it was too strong. The wind flew away, taking the turtles with it before dumping them into an unknown place.
A foot ninja had seen all of this. "Master Shredder, the turtles have picked up the journal and activated its powers. There is no way they will survive the disasters it brings," he reported.
"Excellent," Shredder said, laughing his evil laugh.
A/N: Don't worry, this isn't the end! I'll try to add more chapters to this story soon :D Reviews are always welcome!
