From Random Reviewer 1: This is good Angel! Love it! Did you get this idea from the Interesting Life of Lavinia: The Movie? Just asking. :) I'm gonna go reread your Fics now. Happy writing! :D
Angel: Maybe I did, maybe I didn't XD.
From KS: *sigh* Good memories about season 1... I really missed you, Angie. We all did. I'm glad ya had a nice trip to NY... although, I envy you, I can't even get out of my own city, let alone country! I always wanted to go to NY! Either way, it was funny how the characters reacted to this, I hope you can update soon as you did with IMT! I'll wait for this soon, see ya; KS
Angel: Aww, you missed me? *smiles* I missed you, too. Sucks you can't get out of your own city. Sometimes you just get sick of seeing the same thing outside your window every day…I love to travel, I get to see new things. The plane ride back home was one of the worst, though…
From guests: Welcome back Angel, what's the update schedule for this fic?
Angel: Thank you, I'm glad to be back. I don't know…to be honest, it depends. I type really fast, especially since I can just look back and re-type the scenes. I guess maybe twice a week?
From Guest: Wow that was amazing I hope you had fun on your trip because you just said and that was amazing.
Angel: I did have fun, I just didn't like the apartment. Way too small for a three-bedroom apartment…and they should really get an elevator! And another bathroom!
From metz: Yay I love it, plz update soon, oh did you watch the tmnt movie 2? It's awesome! :-D
Angel: I WISH. My sister doesn't want to go see it, and if I want to watch it, she has to go with me…it sucks being the younger twin.
From Guest: Please update soon, I really wanna see more.
Angel: Sorry, it takes me a while.
Leo and Amy stare at each other, the silence awkward. Amy rubs her arm nervously while Leo gulps. "Uh, Amy?" he asks and her eyes glance over to him. He scratches his neck sheepishly. "What I said…everything was true. I think you're really nice and sweet and…I really like you, and I wanted to know if you want to go out with me?" Leo says nervously. He cut her off, catching her completely by surprise. She just stood there, wide-eyed, not knowing what to say.
Leo sighs and looks down at the floor. "Just forget it, never mind," he was about to leave, but Amy grabs his arm. "Yes Leo!" she exclaims with a smile. His face lit up, beaming. "R-Really?" he asks. "What part of yes don't you understand? It took you forever to ask!" She says, making him laugh. He hugs her tightly, wishing he had asked a long time ago. "Come on, we might as well tell everyone," she tells him. Leo sighs, knowing the reaction from her parents would not be pretty. More specifically, her dad.
Amy leads him back to the theatre and they stand in front of everyone. "Ames and I have something to tell you all," Leo explains and Amy blushes at the nickname. Everyone waits in anticipation before Leo takes her hand. "Leo and I are together now," Amy says, smiling. Everyone cheers and claps. "So are Donnie and me!" April exclaims and Casey pouts, crossing his arms. Stanley growls and stands up, but Nadia stops him. "No," she says sternly. "But she's too young to date!" he argues. "She's 15, dear. We have to trust her," she retorts before smiling at Leo. "You have our blessing," she answers, making Leo grin. "And mine as well," Splinter inputs.
"More please!" Mikey exclaims. Angel sighs. "Okay, okay," they hear before the screen lights up. "YAAAY!" Angle shouts.
The turtles just stand there, staring in silence. All they could do was stare at the glowing canister as Donnie slowly picks it up. "So, that's the…?" Leo starts. "Mutagen that turned us all into what we are now!" Donnie finishes. "Let's drink some!" Mikey exclaims. "What? Why would you do that?" Raph asks.
"Raph has a point, for once. If you actually did drink it, you probably would have turned into a different version of what you are now," Amy explains. "Thanks, I-HEY!" Raph exclaims, making everyone laugh.
Mikey grins. "Cause if you mutate a mutant, you get a super mutant!" he explains. "Or a pile of goo on the sidewalk," Donnie says shortly. "Either way, it's an improvement," Raph replies.
Lily growls at Raph. "No it's not! If he turned into a pile of goo, he wouldn't be the cutest turtle ever! WAIT I DIDN'T MEAN TO SAY THAT!" Lily says, blushing at her sentence. Mikey smiles, blushing. "Well, I am pretty cute," he brags, making everyone roll their eyes.
"Guys, this is huge. Whoever kidnapped those people are somehow connected to what happened to us 15 years ago," Leo tells them. "How is that possible?" Donnie asks. "For alien robots, anything is possible," Mikey says.
Amy sighs. "Oh, boy…" she mutters. "I wasn't lying!" Mikey says in defense. "I know, but if I hadn't already seen it, that's what I would have said…if I was there," Amy explains.
"Stop that. There are no such things as alien robots!" Donnie snaps. They hear a small groan and they turn to see the driver of the van crawling out. Mikey turns to him. "Oh yeah?" he asks, looking surprisingly confident. He walks over to the driver and stands by him. "Well, if there's no such thing as alien robots," Mikey grabs the driver's head. "How do you explain this?" Mikey then grabs the guy's jaw and starts to pull it.
"You did not," Amy says, looking at Mikey, who laughs sheepishly. "I might have gone a little overboard there…I just wanted them to listen to me. They never do!" Mikey answers. Raph, Leo, and Donnie look at each other before turning to Mikey. "Well, next time, we'll start listening to you, Otuto," Leo says with a small smile. "Yeah, you were actually right about something," Raph replies before his eyes widen. "Did I really just say that?" he mutters. "Yeah, we're sorry, little brother," Donnie explains. "Dudes…it's okay. I can see why you thought I was crazy," Mikey tells them before turning back to the screen.
"Aah! Aah! My face!" the guy screams. "Ugh! Man, this mask is glued on tight!" Mikey exclaims. "Mikey, stop! It's not a mask," Leo says quickly. Mikey pauses and looks at the guy's face for a moment before tossing him aside. "Okay, he's in the clear. But those other guys were totally alien robots!" he replies in defense.
"Can I just say that they all look the same? And Snake looks nothing like the Kraang," Jamie points out. "That was one crazy birthday," Leo mutters and his brothers nod in agreement.
"Enough!" Raph snatches the canister from Donnie, holding it in his hand. He stomps over to the man and grabs him by the shirt. "Time to get some answers. Who are you, and what's goin' on?" Raph demands. The man glares up at Raph. "Name's Snake, and I got nothing to say to you hideous freaks," Snake answers.
Amy growls and clenches her fist. "If I was there, I would have made him pay for insulting my brothers," she hisses. Leo places a hand on her shoulder. "Whoa, calm down, Ames. He got mutated, remember? He deserved everything that came to him," Leo explains. She looks at him before sighing. "Fine," she growls out before crossing her arms.
"Oh, well, that's because you don't know us yet," Raph says, throwing him to the ground. Mikey and Donnie held him down. Raph then unscrews the top of the mutagen canister. "See, we were just regular guys, until we got hit with a little of this," he holds up the canister. "Wha-what are you doing?" Snake asks nervously. "Playing a little game I like to call Mutation Roulette," Raph explains.
"What is this, bad cop or something?" Jamie asks. Raph shrugs. "We had to get him to spill somehow. If he didn't squeal, he probably would have turned into us," Raph answers.
"Now you could turn handsome like me, or you could end up disgusting and deformed, like Mikey here," Raph says. "Hey!" Mikey cries out.
"Dude!" Mikey exclaims, glaring. Raph smiles sheepishly. Amy tries not to laugh.
"So, you feel lucky?" Raph asks, tipping over the canister. The mutagen started to seep out slowly, getting closer and closer to Snake's face. "Okay, okay! They call themselves the Kraang. They've been hacking scientists all over the city!" Snake shouts. "That actually worked?" Leo asks. "Of course it did. Would you want to look like Mikey?" Raph answers. "I'm right here," Mikey mumbles.
"Don't worry, Mikey, you're adorable. Don't let Raphie or anyone else tell you otherwise," Amy tells Mikey with a smile. Mikey smiles back and gives her a bear hug. "Thanks, dudette," he says. "Don't call me that," Raph growls. "Then don't pick on your brother all the time," Amy retorts, sticking her tongue out.
"What do they want with scientists?" Leo asks. "I don't know," Snake answers, shaking his head. Raph waves the mutagen in his hand. "All I know is they're taking them out of the city tonight, but I don't know where!" Snake exclaims quickly.
Amy rolls her eyes at this. "Wimp," she mutters.
"This is awesome! One of the girls' parents is a scientist! I'm a scientist! Oh, she is so gonna like me!" Donnie exclaims.
Everyone snickers as Donnie blushes in embarrassment. "Aw, I already like you, Donnie," April tells him, kissing his cheek. Donnie laughs and Casey frowns.
"I don't think you're her type," Snake tells him bluntly, shaking his head.
"How would HE know?" Amy mutters, crossing her arms.
"Now, that brunette, she's a keeper," Snake says.
"Hold up, WHAT did he just say?" Amy asks. Stanley growls and clenches his fist. "How dare he," he says, gritting his teeth. "Dad…please stop," Amy tells him. Her father looks at her before sighing.
Leo growls at this. "Where are they now?" he demands, trying not to let his jealously show.
"Oooh, somebody looks jealous," Mikey teases. Leo blushes. "S-Shut up," he mutters. Amy giggles, covering her mouth. "I don't know, you looked pretty jealous to me," she says. "I-I wasn't!" Leo exclaims, blushing. Amy kisses his cheek. "Leo, there's no need to be jealous," she tells him. "Awww!" all the girls shout and Leo blushes again. He smirks and pulls Amy to him, kissing her cheek. All the girls squeal, much to Amy's embarrassment.
The turtles are standing on a rooftop opposite of where the Kraang were. Mikey would draw out his nunchucks every time Snake flinched, trying to seem threatening.
"Oh my god," Amy says, laughing. "Yeah, I'm a triple threat!" Mikey exclaims, flexing his muscles playfully. His brothers roll their eyes.
"There's gotta be, like, 20 of them down there," Leo says. "Yeah, and that's just the ones we can see," Donnie tells him. "All right!" Raph exclaims, withdrawing his sais and twirling them. "An all-you-can-beat buffet!"
"Oh geez," Amy mutters, slapping her forehead.
"We can't just rush in there. We need a plan," Leo orders. "Why?" Raph asks. "Think, you shell-brain. There are innocent lives at stake. If we screw this up, they're all goners," Donnie explains. "Then we won't screw it up," Raph says obviously.
"Woooow, I'm so done," Ann mutters, shaking her head. Raph blushes in embarrassment.
"Boy, I could sure use some of that pizza right now, huh?" Mikey asks. They all stare at Mikey. He stares back in confusion.
"You were on a mission. How could you think about food?" Jamie says. "Hey, never go on a mission on an empty stomach!" Mikey tells her.
"What? I can't be the only one that's hungry," Mikey says.
"Not exactly the right time to be thinking about your stomach," April murmurs. "Now I'm getting hungry," Amy mutters, standing up and grabbing a pack of gummy bears. When she walks back to her seat, Leo pulls her into his lap. She blushes and says nothing, looking back at the screen.
"Where's Snake?" Leo asks slowly. Mikey gasps and turns to see Snake running across the rooftops.
"Remind to never put Mikey on guard duty," Leo mutters. "Ha, you said duty!" Mikey exclaims, laughing. Leo slaps his forehead.
"Oh, geez," Mikey says. "Get him!" Leo orders. The turtles go down the fire escape and separate into two teams. Donnie and Mikey run to a wall. "Maybe he went over the wall," Donnie suggests. "I'm on it!" Mikey exclaims and uses Donnie's hands to jump over the wall. Dogs and cats can be heard along with Mikey screaming.
"Ooh," everyone winces as they look away. "Ouch," Amy mutters. "I should've read the sign on the wall," Donnie mumbles.
"Ow. I don't think he went this way," Mikey's voice says from behind the wall.
"Ya think?" Amy asks.
Leo and Raph are passing an alley when Leo hears movement. It was small, but it was enough for him to hear. Leo looks to see Snake's shadow. "Oh, great. We let him get away," Leo says loudly and obviously. "Whoa, whoa, you're the leader. Which means you let him get away," Raph says, grinning. "You're not helping," Leo hisses. "I'm not trying to help," Raph answers.
"You should have been, because if I didn't set up that trap, we wouldn't have saved them," Leo retorts. "Well, if we did things my way, we would have already rescued them!" Raph exclaims and the two glare at each other. "Why do I put up with this?" Amy mutters, pinching her nose and shaking her head. "Boys. That is enough," Splinter tells them sternly.
Leo rolls his eyes. "Okay, okay. You want me to lead? Fine," Leo raises his voice again. "We go back to the lair, gear up, and at midnight we drive Snake's van right up to the gate. They'll think we're him and we'll cruise right in," Leo says loudly.
"Wait, where did you find the van?" Mark asks. "It was sitting on the street," Leo answers.
"And then we bust some heads?" Raph asks. "And then we bust some heads," Leo agrees. Raph grins. "I love a happy ending!" he exclaims before the screen moves to show Snake behind the dumpster.
"Oooh, that's how he knew!" Angle exclaims.
Screen then shows Raph on the counter in the kitchen. "I know you're a little worried about me. Look, I'm not gonna lie to you. We've never gone on a fight like this, and I don't know what's gonna happen. But you don't have to worry. I will make it back. I love you, man," Raph says, his eyes sparkling. Screen then moves to reveal a turtle who chews on a leaf.
Everyone laughs, pointing at the screen. "I honestly thought he was talking to someone else," Amy sputters out. Raph growls and clenches his fists. "I will hurt your faces!" he exclaims, making everyone quiet. "It is alright to show affection for your pet, my son," Splinter tells Raph and he blushes in embarrassment.
"Aww. Are you talking to your pet turtle?" Mikey asks and Raph turns to him in shock. "No! Shut up!" Raph exclaims. "That's adorable," Mikey says, his hands on his cheeks. "Oh, I'm gonna crush you!" Raph shouts and Mikey jumps out of his seat and sprints away. Raph grabs a wooden spoon, jumps over the table, and chases Mikey.
"Really?" Amy asks in a deadpan voice and everyone gives a blank look. They had seen Mikey being chased by Raph numerous times.
"I'm gonna shellac you!" Raph exclaims and the screen shows Raph chasing Mikey near the dojo. Leo is bending down on the floor, a few random objects formed into shapes in front of him.
"I think this plan is gonna work," Leo tells himself. "No plan ever survives contact with the enemy," Splinter says, walking up to him. "It is how you react to the unexpected that will determine if you and your brothers succeed," he finishes. "Sensei, do you think I'm ready for this?" Leo asks, standing up.
Amy turns to Leo in confusion. "Were you doubting yourself?" she asks. Leo scratches his neck sheepishly. "Yeah…" he answers nervously. Amy's eyes soften. "Leo, you're leader for a reason," she tells him.
Splinter puts a hand on Leo's shoulder in comfort. "Leonardo, I made you leader for a reason," he tells him.
"See, I just said it, too. He agrees with me," Amy says to Leo, who laughs and hugs her. "You're amazing," he whispers, making her blush while laughing.
"What is that reason?" Leo asks. "That is for you to discover on your own," Splinter answers. "There's so much riding on this…What if something goes wrong?" Leo says in concern. "Failure is a possibility every leader must face, Leonardo. It is something I had to face in Japan during my final battle with my enemy, the Shredder," Splinter explains.
"Boooo!" all the teens say, throwing various food at the screen. Amy froze. This was a story she had heard before, all of them.
"Years ago, Oruko Saki, as Shredder was called then, had been my friend, but the love of a woman came between us. He could not accept it, and his jealously turned outward in a vengeful attack. And while he could not defeat me that day, my world fell and crumbled around me as the battle took the life of my beloved Tang Shen…and I lost my baby daughter, Miwa…" Splinter's voice says as flashbacks of that day appear in comic book form.
Everyone had tears in their eyes as they take in his sad tale. "B-But if he had accepted it, then you wouldn't have bought the turtles and she would still be alive," Amy whispers softly. Splinter gives her a soft smile. "Yes, that is very likely," he says.
"But that's my point, Sensei. You lost everything," Leo says in worry. "I lost many things…my family, my home…my name…" Leo turns his head away. "But I gained many things as well, like the four of you," Splinter says with a smile.
The turtles all smile. "And years later, I also gained Amelia, and I could not have asked for better children," Splinter tells his children. Amy smiles and hugs Splinter.
Leo had a confident grin on his face. "Don't worry. We can handle this," Leo tells him. At that moment, Mikey yells, running past them with a pot on his head. Raph follows close by, the wooden spoon still in his hand. "Get back here!" Raph screams. Leo groans slightly and Splinter shook his head.
"Where were you all this time?" Amy asks Donnie, even though she knew the answer. "I was making something for our mission," Donnie says with a gap-toothed smile.
"Hey, you can't keep us in here like this! We know our rights!" April exclaims, slamming her fist on the glass in her cell. "I don't think they care about that, April," Kirby tells her.
"Yeah, I know that now. They're alien robots, they have no rights," April says.
"We can't just sit here. We gotta do something," April answers. "Like what?" Kirby asks and April smiles. A Kraang passes by their cell. "Oh, my stomach! The pain is unbearable!" April exclaims, holding her stomach.
"I can't believe you did that," Amy mutters. "I was desperate," April answers sheepishly.
The Kraang steps in and April jumps on him. She bites on his arm before he throws her back inside the cell.
"Well that sucked," Mark mutters and Karai hits him lightly in the arm. He gives her a confused look while rubbing his arm.
"Well, I guess we can just sit here," April says to her dad, who shakes his head. "I wonder how the other family is doing. At least they're keeping calm about the situation," Kirby says. Screen moves to Amy's mother pacing around.
"Ha…no, not really," Nadia says nervously.
Amy stands at the door. "Where are we?! What do these freaks want with us?! And why did those…giant, green things try to rescue us?!" Nadia says, freaked out.
"Because they conveniently saw us being captured," Amy answers in a 'duh' tone. "Well, I've been in New York ever since your father and I got divorced. I've never seen anything like them before, no offense," Nadia says. "No, it's okay. We've never seen humans, so it was a first for us too," Leo tells her.
Amy sighs and looks out the window. "Hopefully those turtles will rescue us…" she mutters.
"And we did!" Mikey exclaims before everyone shushes him.
Screen then moves to Snake and Kraang behind him holding laser guns. "They'll be here any minute," Snake says, looking at the street. "Kraang, are those who are coming to this place are near this place, Kraang?" one Kraang asks the other to his left. "I lack that knowledge, Kraang. I will inquire of Kraang about that knowledge," the second Kraang answers.
"Dude, learn English. They invented it for a reason," Casey says in annoyance.
Snake starts to get more annoyed by the minute. "Do you have the knowledge if those coming to this place are near this place, Kraang?" the Kraang asks, looking up. "They're turtles!" Snake exclaims, turning to the alien. "Call them turtles! 'Are the turtles here?'" Snake says in anger. A Kraang points up ahead above Snake. "There are lights of a vehicle which contain that which you wish us to call the turtles coming to this place which you wish us to call here," he explains.
"Wha?" everyone asks in confusion, except Donnie and Amy. Donnie looks at Amy from his seat behind her. "You wanna take this one?" he asks and she sighs in response. "He said the van they thought you were in was coming," she explains. "Oooh," they answer in understanding.
"What are you talking about?" Snake asks. The van approaches and crashes into the building. Snake looks up to see a canister of mutagen crashing on him. He screams and plant arms emerge from his body. The mutation is shown in shadow as he screams.
"So that's how he got mutated. I was always wondering how that happened," Amy says. "…Huh," Donnie mutters, since he and his brothers never saw this happen. "This is so metal!" Casey exclaims and everyone rolls their eyes.
"The ones coming to this place are not in the vehicle bringing them to this place," A Kraang says. "Then in what place are the ones called the turtles?" another one asks. Screen then moves to the left to show the turtles climbing the wall with climbing claws.
"Dude, those things are awesome," Kevin says. Donnie smiles. "Thanks!"
"Wow, lucky thing that van showed up to distract them," Mikey says. Donnie's face fell as he groans. He face palms, still wearing his climbing claw. "Ow!" he exclaims.
Everyone laughs and Donnie blushes. "I forgot I had it on, okay?" he asks. Amy rolls her eyes with a smirk.
"That was the plan, Mikey. We knew Snake was hiding in the alley, so Raph and I made him think we would be in the van," Leo explains. "But we weren't in the van," Mikey answers in confusion.
"Leave it to Mikey to state the obvious," Amy mutters, rolling her eyes. "Oooh, I get it now!" Mikey exclaims and his brothers slap their foreheads.
Leo rolls his eyes. "Just keep climbing," Leo tells him. "Can do," Mikey answers. They get to the roof and pry off the cover of a vent, two Kraang underneath. Leo and Raph jump down and pound them to the ground. Donnie and Mikey jump down. The walls were silver and energy lines glow pink everywhere. "Wow, I've never seen anything like this," Donnie says in awe.
"I can think of a lot of things you've haven't seen before," Amy retorts, crossing her arms. Donnie rolls his eyes. "Ha. Ha. So funny," he comments shortly.
"They're using a metal alloy that I don't even recognize," Donnie says. "Gosh! A metal alloy even you don't know about! It boggles the mind," Raph answers sarcastically. Donnie glares at him. "Dude, you wanna talk metallurgy with me? Bring it," he says. "I don't, and-"
"Guys! What part of being in an enemy lair do you not understand?" Leo hisses.
Everyone laughs.
He turns around and continues on, the others following him. As they turn the corner, they stay against the wall. They lean their heads slightly to see if anything was there. Silver and blue robots stand there. "Whoa, alien robots," Donnie whispers.
"Nah, the Three Stooges!" Amy exclaims.
"Alien robots, huh? Hm, where have I heard that before? Oh, yeah! I've been saying it FOR HOURS!" Mikey says, the last part loudly.
Everyone laughs and Leo slaps his forehead. "Mikey, you didn't have to give away our position," he tells the youngest turtle. "I was annoyed you guys didn't listen!" Mikey exclaims. "Just had to set him off," Lily mutters, shaking her head.
They take care of the robots and stare down at the last one. Suddenly, the brain shifted. A pair of yellow eyes opened and tentacles wiggling in the air. Leo, Raph, and Donnie scream as the brain screeches at them. Mikey smashes his nunchuck against the brain's head. The brain closes its eyes, stars flying its head.
"Yeah, go Mikey!" Lily exclaims, pumping her fist. Mikey blushes.
Mikey grabs the brain by its tentacles, lifting it up in the air. "See? See? It's a brain thing. I told you! I told you! But did any of you listen to me? No! 'Cause you all think I'm some kind of bonehead!" Mikey says, veins popping on his head.
Amy giggles, covering her mouth.
The brain reopens its eyes and screeches. It latches its teeth on Mikey's arm. "Ow!" Mikey lifts his arm up and shakes it. Mikey thrashes his arm before the brain flies and smashes against the wall. It hits a large button, causing the alarm to go off.
"And so starts the running gag of Mikey setting off an alarm," Amy mutters.
"Mikey!" Leo, Raph, and Donnie shout. Mikey turns to see his brothers glaring at him. "Okay! But I was still right about the brain thing! You gotta give me that!" Mikey exclaims in defense.
"No," Leo answers shortly, making Amy giggle.
"Let's move," Leo orders. "Move where?" Raph asks. Donnie looks up at the ceiling. "I think those are power conduits," Donnie says in curiosity. "Oh, that's really interesting! Thanks for sharing, Donnie!" Raph snaps.
"Hey, if I didn't see them, we most likely wouldn't have found them," Donnie retorts. Raph rolls their eyes. "They could've screamed for help," he argues. "Uh, I'm pretty sure we were just doing nothing at the time," Amy tells them.
"Meathead, the conduits are all converging that way," Donnie points down the hall. "Which means that whatever is going on in that direction is important!" Donnie turns and walks down the hall. Leo grins and gestures to the hall with his katana, telling them silently to follow.
Everyone laughs and Raph rolls his eyes.
Mikey points at Raph's face. "You got spanked," Mikey whispers before laughing. Raph glares before grabbing his finger in a death grip. "Ow! Ow! Mercy!" Mikey exclaims. Raph releases his finger and Mikey sucks on it. "Not cool," he mutters.
"You wouldn't shut up," Raph retorts. Mikey blows a raspberry and Raph holds out a fist, making him scream. Their brothers and sister give them a blank look.
They continue running until Donnie's head pops out in front of a window. "We found 'em!" Donnie exclaims. April and her father give each other a look. Kraang soon appear from around the corner. "We'll hold them off! You pick the lock!" Leo tells Donnie, pulling out his katanas. Donnie turns to April. "Don't worry! I'll have you out of there in a second," Donnie says.
"Or a minute, but hey, as long as you got me out," April says, making Donnie laugh.
"Okay, giant lizard-thing," April stumbles.
Casey laughs, almost falling out of his chair. "S-She called you lizard-thing!" he exclaims but stops laughing when April gives him a death glare.
"A turtle, actually. I'm-I'm Donatello," Donnie answers. "April," she tells him, smiling a little. "Wow, that's a pretty-" Leo slams Donnie's head on the door. "The lock, Donnie," he snaps. Donnie shakes his head.
Everyone laughs and Donnie frowns. "You were taking too much time flirting," Leo explains. "W-what, I was not flirting!" Donnie exclaims, blushing. April smiles and puts a hand on his shoulder. "It's okay, Donnie. I know what you were trying to say," she tells him, kissing his cheek.
"Oh, right! Yeah! Sorry," Donnie says before bending down and opening the panel. He starts messing with the wires. The others fight the Kraang. "Not to rush you, but…hurry up!" April says.
"So you didn't mean to rush him, but you still said it?" Ann asks. April smiles sheepishly. "Well, they could have came at any moment and grabbed us," she answers.
"Hey! You think it's easy trying to pick a lock with these hands?" Donnie replies, holding up his hands. "Sorry," April answers sheepishly. Donnie gets the door open and April and her father step out. "Thanks," April tells them and the Kraang fall to the floor. Kirby nods. "Yes…thank you," he says. "Wait! There was another family, a girl and her mother," April replies, turning to a door next to them.
"Oh now you remember," Amy mutters, crossing her arms. April smiles nervously. "Well, with all the excitement…" she says.
"Right," Kirby says, smacking himself. April tries to peek in, trying to see Amy and her mom. Donnie pulls open the door and tries to pick the lock. "Donnie, hurry up," Leo tells him, looking around.
Raph rolls his eyes. "Oh for the love of…get out of my way!" Raph tells him, shoving Donnie away. He takes one of his sais and stabs the lock repeatedly. Amy sits on the floor, head in her hand. The door suddenly opens and she looks up to see the turtles, April, and her dad. Amy blinks and stands up.
"What, never seen mutant turtles before?" Raph retorts. Amy rolls her eyes. "I was surprised you showed up," she answers.
"Thank you," Amy says, bowing. Her mother does the same. Leo sighs happily at her politeness before turning to his brothers.
Everyone giggles and Leo blushes.
"Okay, now let's get out of-" Lasers pass by them. Everyone jumps in shock and they turn to see the Kraang. The families step back as the turtles pull out their weapons. Amy watches Leo in interest as they fight.
"Someone looked impressed," Casey teases, moving behind Amy. She narrows her eyes and pushes Casey back to his seat without looking. "So what? They looked awesome," she answers and the turtles smile at her. Raph flexes his muscles and Ann rolls her eyes with a smirk.
A few Kraang sneak behind the families and points a laser gun at the back of Amy's head. Her eyes widen and they turn to see Kraang. "Do that which is known as be quiet," a Kraang says and they grab them. April screams. "What? No!" Donnie says, looking at them.
"How could you not notice that Kraang?" Leo asks Amy, looking at her. She laughs sheepishly and scratches the back of her head. "I was too distracted to hear it," she answers. "Well, I don't blame you. Our skills are pretty awesome," Mikey brags and Amy rolls her eyes.
The turtles all run, following April's screams. They turn the corner, following the robots as they took April, Kirby, and Nadia to an exit. They burst through the double doors. "Get the door!" Leo shouts.
"Wait, where were you?" Mark asks and Amy sighs. "You'll see," is all she answered.
Raph went to shut the door just as a robot came and shoved his way through. Raph pulls off an arm and uses it against the Kraang as it fell back. He shut the door and barricaded it with the Kraang's arm. Banging was heard, but Raph ignores it. "That'll hold 'em," he says and turns back to his brothers. He breathes heavily but a satisfied look is on his face. Raph frowns at his brothers' faces as they stare at him. "What?" he asks.
"…Wow," Amy mutters as they all stare. "Don't see what's wrong with that. Had to hold the door somehow," Raph replies.
"You are seriously twisted," Leo responds. "Thanks," Raph answers with a smile.
Everyone slaps their forehead except for Raph.
"No! Let me go!" April shouts and they turn to see April, Kirby, and Nadia being escorted to a helicopter. "Let's get 'em!" Leo orders and they were about to move when a green plant-like foot stops them. He had a body like a tree trunk, two thorny vines for arms, and both ends of the vines had jaws made of leaves. Screen then shoots to Amy, who was wrapped around his arm. Leo's eyes went wide.
"Uh-oh."
"No! Not my baby girl!" Stanley exclaims. "Dad…" Amy mutters as every teen laughs. She glares at them and crosses her arms.
"You did this to me! Now you're going to pay! Starting with her," the mutant said, holding up Amy. "It's Snake! He mutated into a…giant weed!" Leo says. "That's weird. You'd think he'd get mutated into a snake," Mikey says.
His brothers and Amy slap their foreheads. "No. He touched the plants, so he got mutated into a weed," Donnie explains. "But it would make sense," Mikey argues. "No it wouldn't," Amy tells him.
"Yeah, you would, if you were an idiot," Raph snaps. "But his name is Snake," Mikey tells him. "So?" Raph asks. "You don't understand science," Mikey says.
"That's not-you know what, never mind. It's pointless," Donnie says.
The lower half of Snake's body split into two and broke free. "I'll crush you turtles!" he exclaims. "Uh…would it help if we said it was an accident?" Donnie asks nervously. Snake pulls his other foot and leans towards them. "So, heh, I'll put you down for a no?" Donnie asks again, gripping his Bo staff.
"That was definitely a no," Amy answers.
"Let her go, Snake!" Leo shouts. Snake swung his vine towards them and Leo raises his katana, slicing off the vine that held Amy. Leo catches her and backflips to the ground. Amy looks up at him before smiling. Leo smiles back before placing her on the ground. "Go! Hide, we'll take care of him," Leo tells her. She nods before taking off.
"Aww, the first time he saved you!" April exclaims, hugging Amy from behind. Amy blushes and sighs. "Man, you guys react to everything that happens between us," she mutters.
Snake screeches, and purple blood sprays and sputters everywhere. Mikey yells, pushing himself back. "Whoa! Eww! Eww! Don't let it touch me! Don't let it touch me!" he exclaims before a dollop fell on his leg. "Ahh! It touched me!" Mikey shouts.
Everyone laughs and Mikey whines. "It was icky!" he yells.
Snake's arm then grows back and he grins, clapping his hand.
"That is so wicked!" Casey exclaims. "No it wasn't," Leo answers in a deadpan voice.
"It grew back? No fair!" Donnie says, frowning. They hear the whir of a helicopter and they look up to see April, Kirby, and Nadia in the helicopter, which was about to take off. "Donnie! Go!" Leo orders. Donnie narrows his eyes as he sheathes his Bo staff. He runs towards Leo, who crouched down slightly. Donnie jumps and Leo uses his hands to help him launch in the air. Donnie flips up and lands by the chopper pad.
Raph uses his climbing claws to cut Snake's leg, covering his hands in purple goop. "And yuck," Raph says, throwing his hands down to shake it off.
Everyone laughs and Raph gags.
Snake takes Raph and throws him at Leo and Mikey, but they manage to catch him. They all stare at Snake. "Snakeweed is really powerful!" Mikey exclaims.
"And the names commence!" Lily exclaims, making everyone groan.
"Snakeweed?" Raph asks. "Yeah! His name was Snake, and now he's a weed, so…"
"We get it!" Raph snaps. "We just have to hold it off until Donnie gets back," Leo says and Amy peeks out from her hiding spot. Leo looks back at her before turning to Snakeweed. A loud bam is heard and the turtles look back to see the door suddenly burst open, several Kraang walking out. Amy's eyes widen and she presses her back to the wall again. "While not getting shot by alien robots," Leo finishes. "With brains!" Mikey exclaims.
Everyone rolls their eyes. "We got it, Mikey," Amy tells him.
"Let it go, man," Raph says.
"No! You didn't listen!" Mikey exclaims. Raph rolls his eyes. "Mikey, we said we're sorry. Let's just forget about it," Leo tells him. Mikey crosses his arms with a pout.
Snakeweed screeches again and Raph jumps up and punches him a few times in the face. Snakeweed shot his vines at him, but Raph slices them. The Kraang fire their weapons and the turtles jump out of the way. Snakeweed gets shot several times and uses one of his vines to knock down the Kraang before knocking the turtles down. "What's the plan again, chief?" Raph asks sarcastically. "I'm working on it," Leo answers before Snakeweed grabs him by the leg, hanging him upside down.
Amy snickers and Leo groans.
Leo looks at a computer. "The power conduits!" he says. "Are we really gonna start talking about that again?" Raph asks. He didn't answer as he is thrashed by Snakeweed. He forms a silent plan. "Perfect. Raph! Mikey!" Leo shouts and puts his katana in his mouth. He then uses his free hand to make some gestures. Raph and Mikey recognize them and they nod.
"You clever turtle," Amy says, smirking at Leo. He smiles and inches towards her. "Well, when you're the leader and all, that's all you need to complete a mission," he says in a flirty tone. Amy rolls her eyes and pushes him away playfully. Stanley narrows his eyes. He wasn't used to see his daughter and Leo flirting.
Donnie jumps on the launch pad. He sees April look at him and he narrows his eyes. He takes his staff and slams it on a Kraang's head. It flew back, hitting the ground. The brain jumps up as it runs. Donnie looks up at the helicopter, which is already in the air. Donnie pulls out his staff and runs. He slams his stick to the ground and jumps. Donnie grips onto the helicopter's edge.
Everyone looks in interest.
The helicopter stops in mid-flight. Donnie tries to get on board. He was stopped by a Kraang with a gun. "Oh, good! For a second there, I thought this was gonna be too easy!" Donnie shouts. Donnie grabs his staff and pulls the Kraang down. It falls to the ground, the brain flying out of the body. The helicopter starts to lose control. April falls out of the helicopter, grabbing the helicopter's edge.
"April!" Kirby shouts. April sighs, knowing she would be safe.
"Hold on! I'm coming!" Donnie tells her. April then slips, falling towards the ground.
Everyone grips onto their seat.
Donnie jumps down and catches her, landing on the ground.
Everyone sighs in relief.
"You okay?" Donnie asks, looking down at April. She pants and looks up. "Dad," she says and Donnie looks up to see the helicopter leaving.
"Mom…" Amy whispers, hugging her mother. "It's okay, Amelia. I'm here now," she whispers.
The turtles were taunting the Kraang and Snakeweed when Donnie and April run up to them. "Whoa! What are they doing? They're leading him straight toward that power generator! That's incredibly stupid!" Donnie says.
"Hey, I resent that," Leo says to Donnie, who rolls his eyes.
"Or brilliant! Or-or both!" Donnie finishes. Amy peeks out from behind Donnie and April. Leo stands behind the power conduit. He pulls out two throwing stars. He throws them and Snakeweed grunts. He turns to Leo. "Hey, come and get me, Stinkweed!" Leo calls out and sticks out his tongue.
Amy tries not to laugh and covers her mouth. Leo looks at her and pouts.
Snakeweed lunges at Leo, who jumps and lands on Snakeweed's back. Leo laughs tauntingly at the Kraang and smacks the back of his shell.
Everyone snickers until Amy finally lets out a laugh, her legs flailing. She falls backwards into her chair. She continues laughing and Leo sighs at this, blushing.
The Kraang fire their weapons and Leo jumps out of the way. The lasers hit the power conduit and Snakeweed gets electrocuted. A few seconds later, he explodes.
Everyone cheers, pumping their fists.
Bits of pieces land around, and Snakeweed's blood lands on the floor as well. Amy runs up to them and they escape. "Kraang, the ones in this place are not in this place where they were," a Kraang says. "The ones are called turtles, Kraang. They are dangerous to what we are doing in this place and other places," another one replies. "Yes, I am knowledge of that. The turtles must be eliminated from all places," the first one answers as the screen closes up on his face.
"They can never stop us," Amy says and she fist bumps her brothers.
The turtles stand in front of Amy and April. April sits on her window while Amy stands next to her. "Are you two gonna be alright?" Donnie asks. "I guess," April answers and Amy looks down. "I don't know…this isn't the first time a family member has been taken away from me," she answers.
"Aww, that's so sad!" Angle exclaims, hugging Amy. Amy smiles and hugs her back. "I'm sorry, Amelia…" Stanley whispers. She sighs. "It's fine," she whispers.
There was a tense silence. April breaks it a few minutes later. "My aunt says I can stay here as long as I want, but I'll be a lot better when we track down those creeps that took our parents," April says, hugging her knees. "Won't the police help?" Leo asks. Amy scoffs. "They'll think we're crazy!" she retorts.
"I thought they could help! You think they would care," Leo argues, crossing his arms.
April chuckles dryly. "Yeah, when you tell them that your parents were kidnapped by alien brains in robot bodies, they don't take you all that seriously," April answers. "I hear that," Mikey replies. "April, whoever you are, I promise you we will not rest until we find them," Donnie tells them. "We won't?" Raph asks and Leo hits him in the shoulder. "No, we won't," Leo says.
"Thanks, guys," April whispers and hugs Donnie. Amy smiles at them. "Yeah, thanks," she says, kissing Leo's cheek. Leo blushes and puts a hand to his cheek.
"Thanks, but you've helped us enough," Amy says. "It's not your fight," April finishes. Donnie places his hand over his own. "Yes, it is," he answers. Amy smiles at him. April blinks before looking up at Donnie with a smile. Donnie yanks his hand back, his cheeks pink. He grins sheepishly and backs away. Amy raises an eyebrow at this.
"Aww!" all the girls except April exclaim. She blushes and bends down to Amy's ear. "You're right, they do like romance," she whispers.
"So what's your name, dudette?" Mikey asks with a curious look. Amy blinks before she smiles a little. "My name is Amelia, but you can call me Amy," she explains, bowing in respect. Leo smiles. "My name is Leonardo, but you can call me Leo. These are my brothers, Raphael or Raph, Donatello or Donnie, and Michelangelo or Mikey," Leo tells her, gesturing to his brothers. Raph does nothing, Donnie nods, and Mikey smiles and waves.
"I see you wasted no time being friendly," Amy says dryly to Raph. Raph smirks. "It could have been worse, I could have given you the worst noogie ever," he explains, making her eyes widen.
"Do you have a place to stay, Amy?" Donnie asks. Amy thinks long and hard as her eyebrows scrunch up in thought.
"You look pretty cute when you rack your brain," Leo tells her and she blushes.
"I would let you stay here, but no room. Sorry," April says sheepishly.
Amy gives April a look. "What? I wasn't going to let you sleep on the couch," she says.
A light bulb goes over Mikey's head. "Dudes, she can stay with us!" Mikey exclaims. "WHAT?!" His brothers and Amy ask. Mikey had a smile on his face. "Think about it! She can't go back to her place if the Kraang are going to look for her there. It's not safe. So she can come with us! They won't find us there and she'll be safe with us around!" Mikey explains.
"I don't know what's scarier, the fact that he came up with it or that he was right," Donnie mutters.
"Mikey does have a point…" Donnie says in thought. "What about Master Splinter?" Leo asks. "Forget Master Splinter! What if she tells people about us?" Raph replies in anger.
"Uh, I didn't. I can keep a secret," Amy says, crossing her arms. "We had just met you at the time, I didn't trust you," Raph answers. "Raphael takes time to let people in," Splinter tells her. Raph decided not to comment.
"Just tell this Master Splinter what happened. I'm sure he'll understand my situation," Amy cuts in. They look at her and Leo grins. "Okay then, you can stay with us. But we're going to have to talk with Splinter about this…" he answers. "AWE YEAH BOI!" Mikey shouts.
The five siblings all laugh. "Well, at least someone liked me already," Amy says, smiling. "Well, yeah! You're so nice and it's like you know us already!" Mikey says, hugging her. "Aww, thanks, Mikey…" she replies, hugging him back.
They jump up to a rooftop and Donnie looks back and waves at April. April waves back with a smile and Donnie turns around to see Amy. He screams, jumping back a bit. "So you like April?" she asks. He scratches the back of his neck. "Y-Yeah…she's so cool!" Donnie answers nervously.
"Aww, Donnie," April says, smiling at him. Donnie laughs and blushes.
Amy smiles. "Don't worry, I won't tell her," she says before catching up with the others. Donnie blinks before smiling.
"Oh, so you did know," April says with a smirk. "Yep. But I've kept it a secret for almost two years now. Guess the cat's out of the bag," Amy answers. "You know, that's when I started seeing you as a good friend," Donnie tells her. Amy smiles at him.
Screen then shows a city and the words Tokyo, Japan appear. A room with an ominous man sits on a chair while watching TV. "Ninjas in New York. Don't believe me? After residents reported a disturbance, the police recovered this," a reporter says and a throwing star appears on the TV with the Hamato symbol on it. "Recovered this," the reporter repeats when the video is played back.
Everyone gasps. Splinter narrows his eyes at this.
"So my old enemy is in New York, and training his own army. At last, I can finish what I started so long ago. Prepare my jet. I'm going to visit an old friend," a voice says and the screen goes to comic book style.
The air was tense before Amy broke it. "S-So that's how he found out…" she whispers, her memory plaguing of their encounters with him. She shudders and closes her eyes. Splinter narrows his eyes at his sons. "As soon as we come home, you are grounded!" he exclaims, making them groan. "B-But Amy stopped him!" Leo points out. "That was not until much later. I fear Shredder will not stop until he has vanquished us all," Splinter explains.
Everyone looks at each other in worry. "L-Let's just watch some more," Amy whispers, attempting to calm everyone down. They nod and sigh.
