Our story opens at the Turtles' house in the sewers where we see our protagonists enjoying some sushi and pepperoni pizza on the table.

"Boy, this is the life dude" said Michelangelo "Living in the sewers, eating pizza, training as ninjas. I'm telling you it doesn't get any better than this"

"One problem though, Shredder's out there and he's going to kill us" Leonardo pointed out.

"Donnatello's right" said Splinter "We have to prepare in case he decides to strike"

After eating (and some time of digesting), Splinter and the turtles started to train. Splinter may have been a rat, but he was pretty cunning. But before they could finish their training, the sewer started to shake.

"What is that noise?" asked Splinter.

"Wh-wh-whoa dudes" said Michelangelo "What's going on? Is it an earthquake?"

"In New York? Perhaps" said Donatello "But not likely"

Just then, some tiny robots busted up right through the walls and started to charge right towards our heroes, while chomping their mouths.

"Robots?" Leonardo raised an eyebrow.

"Wherever they came from, they picked the wrong place to crash" said Raphael.

"Let's get him" said Leonardo "Turtle power!"

Splinter and the turtles charged right towards the robots and used their weapons to deflect them. Since they lived in the drainage system, the walls weren't so fragile. Using their weapons and awesome ninja skills, they managed to smash the robots.

"That took care of them" said Raphael "Those little tin cans"

"Yeah, but these 'tin cans' managed to break through the sewers" Donatello said as he looked at one of the robot heads "This is technology I've never thought would exist. I need to figure out what makes it tick"

"Even though that thing is dead, it still gives me the creeps" Splinter remarked.

Michelangelo sat on the couch "Let's watch a movie"

He pressed a button on the remote and April's image came up onscreen.

"This is April O'Neil reporting for Channel Six News" she said "Today, we go live to Stocktronic Industries where founder and CEO, Baxter Stockman is going to unveil his latest invention"

"Thank you, April" said Dr. Stockman as he came onscreen "I've found the way to rid of the city's rodent problem. For I, Dr. Baxter Stockman have created the very thing that'll have those exterminators in the unemployment office"

Baxter unveiled something that was standing underneath a sheet. It was the same killer robot that attacked the lair.

"Ladies and gentlemen I give you...the Mouser" Baxter showed the robot.

The turtles gasped.

"So that's where those killer robots came from" said Donnie "Those things nearly destroyed our home. I can't believe he would make them out to be a good thing"

"Well whatever they are, they trashed our place" Raph said angrily "And I say we should go to Stocktronic's and kick his science nerdy behind"

Just as Raph was about to leave the lair, Splinter stopped him before he even took another step.

"Hold it right there, Raphael" Splinter said as he bonked Raph with his staff "You remember what happened in the last story; you four nearly got exposed to the world and Shredder found out about you"

"Mikey's fault" said Raphael.

"The point is that you shouldn't try to be so hasty" Splinter continued "We need more information on this person and some more training"

"Guys look" Leonardo pointed to the newscast.

April was carrying a box of rats.

"And now, I shall demonstrate this mouser in action" said Baxter "April, if you will"

April dumped the rats into a maze and the rats started to try to find their way around the maze. Unfortunetly, they had a little accident with the Mouser.

"Boy, I'd sure hate to a rat" said Michelangelo "No offense, sensei"

"That's okay" said Splinter "I can surely see your point, though"

Later over at Channel Six, April went over to work for a conference with her boss.

"Hey April" said the secretary.

"Hi Irma" said April "I'm here to see the boss"

"Good thing too" said Irma "He's seeming really impatient. Oh by the way, is that Baxter Stockman guy single? Is he straight? Is he free Friday night?"

"Irma" April placed a hand on one of her hips "I have to get inside the conference room"

"Of course" Irma giggled.

April went over to the boss' office "Hey Mr. Thompson! You called me?"

"Sit down, April" said Mr. Thompson.

April sat down "So what's this about?"

"I want to commend you on that story about Stockman" said Thompson "That guy's made something that could actually benefit society. Those rats are disgusting and they deserve to die"

"But sir, I don't think these mousers are for just getting rid of vermin" said April "I think they must be for something else"

"Don't be stupid April" said Mr. Thompson "Those mousers are totally harmless!"

"But I just get a weird feeling about this" April told him.

"Very well then" said Mr. Thompson "Cause I like you, I'm going to give 24 hours to find proof or else"

"Or else what?" asked April.

"Vernon gets your job" said Thompson.

"You're bluffing" April snarled.

"Just try me" Thompson smirked.

April left the office in a huff. On the way back, she ran into Irma, who was walking with her to the elevator.

"How'd it go?" asked Irma.

"Terrible" April replied "Thompson doubts my suspicions of the mousers and he wants me to find proof in 24 hours or he'll demote me to lowly assistant"

"Then you'd better find proof and fast" Irma said.

"And I know just the people who can help" April snapped her fingers.


Author's Note:

It looks like April's got a new scoop to cover and now it looks like there's another menace on the loose. Can she and the turtles learn more about the mousers?
