Here we go, guys, episodes 2 and 3 have begun. The hunters and turtles will move into a new home while learning about each other while finding out who the mechanical creatures belong to. While that happens, they will make a new ally and friend from the upper world. Anyway, back to the story, guys.
It didn't take long for the turtles to get their new place fixed. The hunters and assassins had helped out a little and they had picked out rooms for themselves. Sly and Neyla had picked out a room while Scar had a room to himself. Nebula picked out a room with Xeron. Splinter had made his own room while the turtles had their own rooms as well. They were almost finished with the entertainment center. Mikey and Donnie were arguing about what to name the place until Xeron spoke. "Why not call this place "home"? She said.
"Excellent suggestion, Xeron." Splinter said with a smile. "What is keeping Leonardo, Raphael, Nebula and Scar?"
"They're just getting the last of your things from your old home, Master Splinter. They should be back soon." Sly said as he sat beside the wise rat.
"When they do come back, we'll tell you about us and why we're here. After all, if we're going to be staying with you for a while, your son's should know some things about us." Neyla said as she sat beside Sly.
"That would actually be great. I'm very interested in your technology." Donnie said with excitement.
"Yeah. From what we've seen Nebula and Xeron do, you guys look like real tough dudes." Mikey said.
"Donatello, don't even think about using Yautja technology. This planet is not ready for it, and in case you're tempted to try and use our friend's gauntlets, don't bother. Their locked on the hunter's DNA signatures, which means no one but them can use them." Xeron told the genius turtle.
Meanwhile at the turtles old lair
They had just finished getting the rest of the stuff gathered up in Sly's pod. Once that was done, he sent it the the turtles new home. "When I find out who built those home-wreaken' roaches." Rapth said as he punched a wall.
"Easy, Raphael, we're not trying to get buried alive in here." Nebula told him.
"Let's go." Sly said as they got on the vehicle that Donnie had made.
"Yes. Besides, I am sure you and your family are ready for an explanation for us being on your planet." Scar said.
Nebula got in the control seat. "Now let's see what the accelerator on this thing can do." She said as she activated the accelerator, making the vehicle go twice as fast. "Hahahaha, I think that genius brother of yours has outdone himself, wouldn't you guys agree?"
"Nebula, I think I'm beginning to like you guys!" Raphael said.
"Who knows, maybe you guys could teach us a thing or two." Leo said.
Back at the lair
Neyla was look at the robot that she destroyed. "This robot may not be as advanced as Yautja technology, but it is state of the art on this planet." She said.
"Even though it is inactive, it still makes me feel uneasy, Neyla." Splinter said before they saw Sly's pod and Donnie's vehicle enter the lair.
"Hey, guys. Looks like the accelerator on this thing is working just fine." Nebula said as they got off of the vehicle.
"Mikey, your DVD collection survived." Leo said throwing a box of DVDs to Mikey.
"Sweet. But that can wait. Let's hear our new house guest's stories." Mikey said.
"I think that can wait. In the meantime, let's watch a little TV." Neyla said as she got the remote and turned on the TV, showing a news conference of a man named Baxter Stockman.
"A wise man once said "build a better mousetrap, and the world will be the path to your door. Well I say, let the path speaking begin. For I, Baxter Stockman have designed a salutation to the city's ever growing rat problem. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the Mouser." Stockman said as he uncovered the same robots that destroyed the turtles old home, making them gasp.
"I don't believe it. Why would the famous Baxter Stockman pass these things off as good?" Donnie asked.
Raphael stabbed one of the TV's with a Sai. "I say we go to Stocktronics and kick some serious shell." He said as he ran, but Xeron blocked his way.
"No way, Raphael." She said as she hit him upside the head, making Splinter and Nebula chuckle. "We can't just go beating on someone just because he built those things ones you destroyed must have been a test run for them and they may have destroyed your home on an accident."
"Xeron's right. Besides, last time you guys went to the surface, it almost didn't end well for you if Nebula and Xeron hadn't saved you. None of us can be seen by the humans." Neyla said.
"They are correct, my sons." Splinter said.
"My lovely assistant, Ms April O'Neil, will release several rats into the simulation chamber." Stockman said as a woman with red hair and released a box of normal rats into a maze. The Mouser saw one of the rats, followed it and ripped it to pieces.
"I'm concerned about that woman, April." Neyla said.
"Why is that, sister?" Scar asked.
"I'm not sure. I just have a feeling that she's going to be put in danger because of Stockman and his robots." Neyla said.
Splinter walked up to Neyla. "Neyla, your feelings serve you well, but as you said, none of us can be seen by the humans."
"But if Neyla's right, shouldn't we at least keep an eye on her?" Leonardo asked.
"Don't worry, guys, Me, Scar and Xeron will watch over her. I'll send my pod to keep track of her just in case." Sly said as he donned his gauntlet along with Scar.
"Be careful, Sly. Who knows what else Stockman is up to." Neyla said asshe walked up to Sly and kissed him.
"Don't worry, Neyla. If the woman winds up in danger, we'll know about it. I'm setting my mask to track the woman so we can find her." Sly said as he left with Scar and Xeron.
Neyla looked at the turtles and saw them blushing. "Either you 4 focus on something else, or I'll give you a serious beating." Neyla tnreated.
"Well, if I can get a Mouser working, I can trace them back to the source and find out what Stockman's really using them for." Donnie said.
"Don't bother with that, genius, cause I'm sure we'll find that out soon enough. Besides, I say we have a little training session." Nebula suggested.
"Excellent suggestion, Nebula. Come, my sons, training starts now." Splinter said. When the training began, Splinter easily defeated them all and telling them why while Neyla was training with Nebula.
"Seems you're distracted, Raphael, you're not focused on attacking." Neyla said.
"Yeah. It's just about what you said about that woman on TV. If you think she's gonna be in danger, why can't you guys just send her an email or something like that." Raphael asked.
"And tell her what? That walking, talking animals and 3 aliens that are living in a sewer sent it to her? She'd never believe us over Stockman unless he actually made a move against her first." Neyla said.
"Besides, Cooper, Xeron and Scar are looking after her, and they're very strong and smart warriors. If that Stockman creep tries to harm her, they'll know about it." Nebula said.
"They are correct, Raphael. I know that you worry about the woman, but if it calms you, Nebula will go with you to make sure." Splinter said.
"Well, I don't have anything better to do right now, so why not. Come on, turtle." Nebula said.
"Thanks, Sensei." Raph said as they got on Donnie's vehicle and speeded out of the lair.
Meanwhile with Sly, Scar and Xeron
They ran through the sewer and went topside to make it easier following April through Sly's mask. They had gotten to the roofs and jumped from rooftop to rooftop until Sly's mask signaled that April was in the sewers. "Looks like she is in the sewers now." Sly said.
"If those "Mousers" are after her, we must move quickly." Scar said.
They found the nearest manhole cover that was closest to April's location and quickly got inside. Once there, they quickly ran to the woman's location and saw that Raphael and Nebula had just gotten there. But before they could say anything, they heard a scream.
The warriors got their weapons out and quickly destroyed the Mousers surrounding April. "Thank you so much. You saved my-my."
They came out from the shadows and April couldn't believe her eyes to the point where she faded. Nebula picked her up and turned around. "Where do we take her?"
"Well, we don't know where she lives, so there's only one place to take her, but Master Splinter ain't gonna like it." Ralph said.
Later at the lair
"Man, what a dream. Humanoid creatures fighting robots. Did I fall asleep watching TV again?" April asked as she woke up, seeing very unusual creatures standing in front of her.
"Trust me, Ms O'Neil, it wasn't a dream." Neyla said.
"Before you freak out, tell us what you know about your employer's Mouser robots." Raphael said as he walked up to her.
"Well, I thought they were used for cleaning the city's rat problem, but I got suspicious when Dr Stockman said- wait, I'm talking to a bunch of talking animals and 3 aliens. Alright, April, you're fine. Everything is fine."
"Then perhaps you are ready to answer our questions." Scar said as he took off his mask and showed his face, making April fade again.
"Whoa, you sure have a way with the ladies, Scar." Mikey said, before getting hit upside the head from Nebula.
"Quiet, Motor mouth." She said, making Raphael chuckled as they fist bumped.
"Master Splinter, I believe some of your hot tea will calm her nerves when she wakes up again." Xeron said.
"Indeed, Xeron." Splinter said as he went to prepare the tea. By the time he was done, April woke up again. Splinter handed her the tea and she took a sip.
"I am sorry for scaring you April." Scar said.
"It's okay, whoever and whatever you are." April said, still wary of the Yautja.
"First, April, we must discuss something. No human has ever seen any of us before. They've lived down here for 15 years. Me and my friends here just arrived on this planet. Even though saving you was the right thing to do, we've also put ourselves I great danger by bringing you here." Sly said.
"But, Sly, our master has always taught us to do the right thing. Surely your master taught you that as well." Donnie said.
"As you grow older, my sons, you will learn that there are many ways to do doing the right thing." Splinter said.
"But there's no going back now, my friends. I'm afraid that we all find ourselves at your mercy now." Xeron said.
"I would never tell anybody about you guys. I mean, who on the planet would believe me?"
"I believe you, April. I knew the same thing when I first met Scar. The people of earth would just call you crazy or insane and eventually throw you into an asylum somewhere." Neyla said, remembering that she was in a similar situation years ago.
Splinter walked up to April and looked into her eyes. "I believe you."
"Is this another lesson, Master Splinter? How to sense the truth?" Leo asked.
"No. This is called trusting your gut and if Neyla believes her, so do I."
"Well, if I'm keeping your secret, I'd at least like to know who you all are." April said.
"I have memories. Memories of when I was, what you may call normal. I remember a day that started like any other, but ended changing the course of many lives. I witnessed an accident. A boy carried a glass jar with 4 pet infant turtles. An old blind man was crossing the street when he was almost ran over by a large truck. He was saved, but the boy's jar was knocked out of his hands. As the truck span out of control, a metal conatser boused out of the back, going into the sewers and releasing a strange glowing ooze, which covered their bodies. I took pity, gathering them up in an old coffee can. I took them to my burrow. When I awoke the next morning, I received a shock. They had doubled in size. It changed me also, making me larger and more intelligent. The turtles followed me everywhere, except above ground. I was amazed at how intelligent they were, but nothing could have prepared me for what happened one day: they actually spoke my name. Soon, they all were speaking and Intelligence followed soon after. Realizing that the world above is a dangerous place, I began training them in the art of Ninjutsu. And out of a book I found in a strong drain, I chose names for each of them. Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael and Michelangelo. Together, they are."
"Turtles Forever!" The 4 brothers yelled.
"So we have remained in secret, and that is our story." Splinter said, ending his tale.
"But how did you know Martial arts?" April asked.
"That is a story for another time." Splinter said, not wanting to tell her that part now.
"What about you guys?" April asked, looking at the hunters and female warriors.
"Well, I think our stories will have to wait." Sly said, turning on one of the TV's and watching the news of a bank robbery.
"That's why the Mousers were chasing me. I found out that he was really using the Mousers to steal rather than clean up the city's rat problem. When I got suspicious of it, he turned the Mousers on me. I'm telling you guys, he's nuts." April said.
"Well, we're not going to let him go unpunished for that. Let's go to his building and end this Mouser monstrosity, permanently." Nebula said.
"Nebula, I am so beginning to like you." Raph said as he fist bumped with the former daughter of Thanos.
"That means he's also responsible for Destroying your old home. Maybe it was a test run for the banks." Xeron said.
"Whoever gets to Stockman gets his skull." Scar said.
"No, Scar, not in front of my sons or Ms O'Neil. I do not want them to have nightmares about it." Splinter said as he touched Scar's arm.
"Yes, Master Splinter." Scar said, bowing in respect.
"It won't be easy to get inside. Stockman has the world's most advanced security on Earth." April said.
"That won't be a problem, April. Our technology is way more advanced than Earth's technology." Neyla said.
"Great, so can we go now, please?" Raph asked.
"If it gets you to shut your mouth about it, yes." Sly said.
April led them all through the sewer until they spotted an alarm for Stocktronics security. "Anyone who has alarms in the sewers gas got to be paranoid." Xeron said.
"Indeed, Xeron. That is why we gave this." Scar said as he deactivated the alarm with an EMP device on his wrist gauntlet.
"Man, those gauntlets of yours are cool." April said.
"Thanks, April." Neyla said.
They got in through a vent and got April into a lab with a computer. Once April hacked into it, she began to disable the security cameras. "Okay, guys, the cameras are all down. You should be all clear."
"Good. Stay here and lock the door. We'll be back." Nebula told her. They ran through the hallway until they got to the control room.
"Be ready for anything." Scar said.
"Relax, Scar, Master Splinter taught us to be prepared." Leo said.
Suddenly the lights turned on. "Intruders here to steal my secrets!? You'll leave here with nothing, not even your lives." Stockman said from the control panel, but was shocked at all of them, especially Scar. "What on Earth are all of you? Perhaps I should dissect you to find out, and that technology could help advance my work." He said.
"Over our dead bodies, Stockman, or better yet, yours!" Nebula said.
The Yautja hunters quickly destroyed the Stockman's laser blasters with their plasma casters and once they were destroyed, Scar jumped up to Stockman and grabbed him by the lab coat. "Your time for terrorizing innocent people is over, Stockman."
"Been practicing that, Scar?" Mikey asked as the rest of the rest of the warriors jumped up to join their comrade.
"No." He answered.
"What are you?" Stockman asked afraid.
"I am a Yautja, a hunter of an alien race with physical abilities far greater than the people of Earth, and you are our prey on this little challenge." Scar said as his mask's eyes glowed blood-red.
"You will pay for what you have done, Stockman." Sly said.
"Too bad you won't live much longer to tell anyone about any of us. Never underestimate the Yautja hunters and especially not a former daughter of Thanos." Nebula said.
"H-how did you even get in here?" Stockman asked.
The door opened. "They're all with me." April answered as she walked in.
"April, you're alive." Stockman said, shocked.
"Normally I'd put you in jail for all you've done, including attempted murder, but I've long learned that the only way to stop people like you is to end you permanently." Neyla said Scar threw him on the floor.
Stockman quickly pressed a button. "You'll never get out of here alive. The Mousers are coming back. They'll tear you all to pieces." He said as he quickly escaped.
The Mousers came back and the hunters began to fire their plasma casters at them, destroying most of them while April typed on the control panel to try and stop them. She pushed a button and the Mousers stopped.
"April, why are they blinking like that?" Donnie asked.
"Well, the only way I could stop them was by initiating an overload sequence." April answered.
"In other words, let's get out of here!" Mikey said.
Scar picked April up bridal style and they jumped from the control panel and quickly got out of the building before it exploded.
Later at the lair, watching the news about the building's explosion and Stockman's disappearance. "What will you do now, Ms O'Neil? You are most definitely out of a job." Splinter asked.
"Well, I'm not exactly sure."
"If you'd like, we'll all help you get back on your feet. It's the least we can do." Donnie said.
"Maybe me and Xeron could train you to defend yourself, if you'd like." Nebula offered.
"You guys have all been great, but I don't know your names." April said, looking at the 5 warriors.
"Well, since you have proven to be trustworthy, I guess we can tell you our names. I'm Sly Cooper."
"I'm Neyla, Sly's girlfriend."
"I am Scar, Sly and Neyla's adopted brother."
"Name's Nebula, April."
"I'm Xeron the Destroyer, but you can just call me Xeron."
"I gotta say, in all my life I never thought I'd ever be friends with 4 talking turtles, a talking rat, a talking tigress and raccoon, and especially not 3 aliens." April said.
"Well, guys, here's to the new team!" Leo said with excitement. The new friends tipped their glasses and raised them with a cheer, making Splinter smile. The old rat had a good feeling that his family had just gotten bigger with his new human and alien friends around.
Meanwhile
"So as any fool can see, the whole thing was just a minor setback. But with your continued funding, the research can continue immediately. I'll be back at work- oh Monday morning." Stockman told the man known as Oroku Saki.
"You must pay the price for failure, Dr Stockman." Saki said as he signaled hun to take him away for punishment with his wrist blades.
"We have the image you requested, Master." A technician told him as a screen came down and another technician brought a device with a destroyed Mouser head, which showed Saki an inferred image of the 9 warrior creatures, one he recognized as the Yautja.
"So these 9 warrior creatures are the ones responsible?" Saki asked before he jumped to the screen and destroyed it with his wrist blades in a rage.
There you go, guys, episodes 2 and 3 are complete. Next the warriors will meet another future human ally while the five warriors show the turtles their methods of dealing with their enemies. Rate and review. See you soon, guys.
