From Clare: I like that part where Mark says that sucks and Karai lightly hits his arm. I think it would be cool if Mark, Jared, and Karai just react to the Wrath of Tiger Claw, Legend of the Kuro Kobuto and Vengeance is Mine episodes that would be awesome (;
Angel: Er…that's not getting done until WAY later…I'm doing this in order, because some events would be overlooked if I did them out of order. But I will tell you they will get done…eventually.
From Guest: Wow, amazing, keep it up. I want to see more updates it's really cool, are you going to be doing all the other ones?
Angel: Yep!
From Katz: If you do have time, why not do the 1987 and 2003 turtles with Amy in it so it will be really cool anyway, awesome update.
Angel: Tsk. I really don't like those series, though, and I don't feel like watching all the episodes. I only like the 2012 series. And several people want me to do the 2014 movie, which I haven't seen. I didn't even see the sequel because my sister is stubborn and she won't go with me.
From metz: Angel, I think this is gonna be your greatest work ever that and if you make the 2014 movie fanfic with Amy in it, you are going to be my new favorite author! Plz make more new chapters :-D:-D:-D.
Angel: Aww, I'm really touched you said that, metz. What happened to my other stories, though? I thought those were better XD. I'm just playing, I'm just playing!
From Hermana Kunoichi: I already know that next chapter is one of those chapters some said red banded turtle won't enjoy, if you can all re-call it. However, I LOVED when Raph was talking to Spike that way, and I understand him, I do that to both of my cats. Also, I heard a rumor, that I'm pretty sure not so much people will be happy about, but...as I heard, episode 15, City at War (which, btw, was named exactly as one of 2k3 version) will come on air... in September, last rumors I got about they would come up in 2 months, were fake, or my information I got from the TMNT Pedia and Deviant Art fan clubs was wrong. Either way, I hope to read more. And, finally, Kevin showed up, I was wondering what happened to him in here or why he wasn't there.
Angel: …
Leo: Ange?
Angel: …NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I thought it was this month! That really sucks, I have to wait three more months now? I was really hoping to watch the new episode. Grr…btw, I already knew the episode name. I said it on the fourth story. And I'm pretty sure Kevin was in the last chapter. Jared's not in this, though…YET. I'm not saying when he'll appear.
Amy throws popcorn into her mouth. They were all trying to forget what Shredder had said from last time. Amy was freaking out the most. She knew that this was in the past, but she never knew how Shredder found out about them. Now that she did…it shook her up a bit. If the turtles hadn't saved her, Shredder most likely wouldn't even come to New York. She sighs and Leo glances at her. "Ames?" he asks and she turns to him. "Don't even think about what would happen if we didn't save you. We did it because we wanted to. Who cares if Shredder found out?" he tells her. "Yeah, we did the right thing," Donnie explains. "And besides, you and April are awesome!" Mikey exclaims.
"Yeah, you're not bad, ice princess," Raph finishes. She gives a shocked look and was about to say something when the screen lights up. She shakes her head and smiles, grateful to have friends like them.
Screen shows several pipes before moving down to Amy and the turtles walking. Leo and Raph were in front of her, while Donnie and Mikey were behind her.
"Gee, paranoid much?" Ann asks, crossing her arms. "Raph insisted on it. He thought I would run off and tell people about them," Amy explains before giving a hurt look at the screen. Raph frowns, looking down at the floor. He really didn't know why he didn't trust her at first.
"So who's Master Splinter?" Amy asks as they walk. "He's our father and sensei. He's been training us in the art of ninjitsu for years," Leo answers. Amy starts to look bored again as they walk. She looks around in thought before getting an idea. She starts singing 'You'll Be in My Heart.'
"Aw, Amelia…you remembered our song," Nadia whispers with a smile. Amy nods with a smile. "I was thinking about you. I was wondering how you were, I thought that they mutated you," Amy answers sadly. "No. I don't even remember what happened when I was there," Nadia explains. "Why did you start singing, anyway?" Kevin asks. Amy shrugs. "It was the only thing that came to mind," was all she could say.
Raph turns around to Amy in confusion. "Is she…?" Amy continues singing and the turtles look at her, intrigued. Amy had her eyes closed, not paying attention to them. The screen moves to the side of her face.
"You have a pretty voice," Raph tells Amy to her surprise. She blinks before smiling. "T-Thanks, Raph," she whispers. She wasn't used to Raph complimenting her.
Amy was about to sing another verse before she hears clapping. She opens her eyes and the screen moves to the turtles, cheering. Amy smiles. "You didn't tell us you could sing!" Mikey exclaims.
"How long have you been singing?" Donnie asks. "Uh…as long as I can remember…" Amy answers. Nadia nods. "It's true. Ever since she could talk, she's been singing," she explains. "You have a lovely voice, my child," Splinter says and she blushes at the praise. "I kinda wish I didn't do that now…" she mutters.
Amy shrugs. "I have many hidden talents. Usually it helps me get my mind off things," she explains.
Leo smirks, getting an idea. "Is kissing one of your hidden talents?" he asks. Her eyebrows furrowed. "What does that have to do with-" Leo leans in and kisses her. "AWW!" all the girls exclaim. Stanley rolls his eyes before smiling. Nadia takes a picture, making them pull away. "MOM!" Amy exclaims in embarrassment. "My daughter's first kiss!" she exclaims. Amy whines and covers her face. Leo blushes and looks back at the screen.
"Like your mom?" Mikey asks and Raph smacks him in the back of his head. "Mikey!" all of his brothers shout. "I'm sorry," Mikey says quickly. Amy grins at him. "It's okay. Even though my mother is trapped with the Kraang, I know we'll get her back," she replies in an optimistic tone.
"How can you do that?" Karai asks. Amy blinks in confusion. "Do what?" she asks. "How do you always stay so upbeat during times like that?" Karai questions. "Erm…I don't know. I've never been asked that before," Amy answers. "Reminds me of Mikey," Donnie mutters. Amy rolls her eyes. "So I'm cute, oblivious, and a terrible eater?" she asks. Leo smirks. "Well, you're right about the cute part," he tells her. Amy blushes and pushes him away slightly.
Amy frowns when she starts walking again.
Amy sighs, remembering what she had been thinking about.
They finally step into the lair and Amy looks around in awe. Leo turns to her. "Okay, you're about to meet Splinter in the dojo. Just…don't freak out, okay Amy?" Leo asks. Amy nods. "I didn't freak out when I saw you guys, so…"
"Yep! I'm not one to judge by appearance. After all, never judge a book by its cover," Amy explains. The turtles smile at her. They were truly amazed by this girl.
Leo grins, takes her hand, and leads her to the dojo.
"Ohh, that's just so cute!" Nadia exclaims. Amy groans and places her head in her knees, silently wishing if she could die of embarrassment. Leo takes her hand and squeezes it.
Leo opens the door and leads her inside, the others following. Splinter mediates underneath the tree. Splinter stands up and the screen focuses on each turtle before it stops on Amy. Leo walks up to him and lets go of Amy's hand. She frowns before shaking her head. "Sensei," Leo starts, bowing. "This is Amelia or Amy, the other girl that was captured by the Kraang," he explains.
"You know I don't like it when people my age call me by my full name," Amy tells Leo. "Sorry, sweetie," he whispers, kissing her hand. She squeaks and blushes before giving her mother a stern look that said 'No pictures and no squealing.' Nadia winks and when Amy turns around, she takes a silent pic.
Amy bows in respect. "Pleased to meet you," she says. Splinter smiles a bit. "I see…so why have you brought this young lady to our secret hidden lair?!" he says, an angry tone at the last part. Amy cringes.
"Splinter is scary when he's angry," Angle whispers to Amy. "It's worse when you're in trouble," she whispers back.
"Well…you see Sensei, after talking with her, I suggested we bring her here because she has nowhere else to go and I didn't want her to be kidnapped by the Kraang again," Mikey explains.
"Yes, because that's what I need in my life. Going through the same adventure again," Amy mutters, making everyone laugh.
"Mikey pointed out that she wouldn't be safe if she stayed at her own place. So we agreed that we would bring her here…that is if you let her stay," Donnie explains. Raph crosses his arms.
"Gee, thanks for the back-up," Amy retorts. Raph smirks. "That's because I still didn't trust you yet," Raph answers.
"I promise I won't tell anyone about you guys…and I'll try not to be a burden," Amy says, whispering the last part.
Amy's eyes widen and she whines, hiding her face as she slid down in her chair. She didn't want anyone to hear that. "Ames, you're not a burden, and you will never will be," Leo tells her, patting her shoulder. She didn't respond. "There is nothing to be embarrassed about, Amelia," Splinter explains. "Just telling me that makes me embarrassed," she mutters and her brothers laugh. "Yeah, well, we don't think you're a burden to us. You always help me in the lab, and you supported me about April," Donnie says with a gap-toothed grin.
"Yeah, dudette! You help me with cooking and you play video games with me!" Mikey exclaims. Raph smirks. "Well, if we're gonna be all mushy…ice princess, you always manage to calm me down. Thanks…" he says. Leo smiles. "You see? We all love you and we promise you, you're not a burden. Ever," he comments. Amy uncovers her face and grins. "Thanks, bros," she whispers.
"Very well, you may stay, Amelia," Splinter replies after a few minutes. The turtles cheer, except for Raph. "IF you answer my questions. I realize you are trustworthy, but I must know a little bit about you," Splinter explains. They all sit down, their hands on their knees.
"Wait. I'm confused. Dad said he knew you in Japan, right? In the letter he wrote to me," Amy says and Splinter nods. "So how come you didn't recognize me?" she asks. Splinter ponders this for a few minutes. "I only saw you once, Amelia. You were only an infant. Your father and I wrote letters to each other, but I never visited. I believe I was fighting with Shredder at the time. Right before Shen…he sent me a letter telling me you had moved to Florida. I wanted to go there, but I wanted to go to New York for Shen, to remember her," Splinter explains. Amy blinks before nodding.
"Where are you from?" Splinter asks. "I'm from Florida. I just moved here recently," Amy answers. "Where's Florida?" Mikey questions curiously.
"I should really get you a globe," Amy mutters.
"It's south from here," Donnie explains and Amy nods. "Have you ever been trained in the art of ninjitsu?" Splinter asks. Amy shakes her head. "I was in a gymnastics class, but other than that, no," Amy explains.
"No wonder why you're so agile," Angle murmurs. "Wait, you've seen me do things like backflips, and you're questioning this now?" Amy asks.
"I would like to train you to be a kunoichi soon. I must warn you, it will be the hardest thing you've ever done," Splinter says and the turtles give a shocked look. Amy blinks and looks down at the floor.
"Wait, he asked you before me?" April asks in a fake hurt tone. "You weren't even there," Amy retorts.
Amy looks back up at Splinter. "I'll think about it," she replies. Splinter nods. Screen then moves to show Donnie, Raph, and Mikey walking out of the dojo. Amy and Leo follow close behind. A finger taps Amy's shoulder and she turns to Leo. "Yes, Leo?" she asks. "Um…Amy, w-would you like to come on patrol with us? Just to observe so it can help you with your decision…" he says.
"Aw, he's all shy!" Nadia exclaims, making Leo and Amy blush.
Amy smiles. "Sure. I don't mind watching," she answers.
"I see you don't consult us first," Raph mutters. "Hey, you were all fine with it when I told you she was coming," Leo argues.
Screen shows Vic on his chair, watching TV, before moving up to Donnie, on the rooftop. Donnie looks at his spyglass while Leo stands, arms crossed. Amy sits on the edge of the building next to them, looking down.
"You could have fell!" Stanley shouts in worry. "Dad, they were right there. And I'm not that clumsy!" Amy tells him, glaring.
"Anything?" Leo asks. "Nothing yet," Donnie answers. Amy blows her bangs out of her face before the screen moves to show Raph and Mikey. Raph was sitting down, his arms folded, half-asleep. Mikey was laying on top of the block above Raph. Mikey pokes Raph's head. Raph swats his hand away and Mikey laughs. Mikey taps Raph's head again and Raph swats it away again. Mikey goes for a third tap, but Raph reaches up, grabs Mikey's finger, and squeezes it. Mikey yelps and Raph releases his finger.
"Why do you always hurt him?" Lily asks angrily. "Because he's always pushing it," Raph grumbles. "So why did you need to poke him?" Amy asks. "Because I was bored," Mikey answers, shrugging.
"Guys! When ninjas are on surveillance, they are supposed to be silent!" Leo hisses, glaring at the two.
"I wasn't even a kunoichi yet," Amy argues. Leo smiles sheepishly and scratches his neck.
"Sorry, Leo. I'll scream quieter," Mikey whispers before poking Raph's head again.
"So when I say to be silent, you just go ahead and keep annoying him. Nice," Leo says in a deadpan voice.
Mikey giggles and Raph growls, throwing him down on the ground. Raph jumps over to him and wraps his arm around Mikey's neck, trapping him in a headlock. "Say it," Raph demands. Amy puts her hands on the edge of the building and uses it to backflip to Raph. "Raph, come on," she says in annoyance. "Not until Mikey says it," Raph answers.
"Oh geez, seriously Raph? You didn't have to do that, even though he was being annoying to you," Donnie argues. Leo nods. "He has a point," he replies. "How I deal with Mikey is my business, so stay out of it!" Raph shouts, veins popping on his head. Amy, Leo, and Donnie roll their eyes.
Mikey struggles to break free but sighs, giving up. "Raphael is all wise and powerful," Mikey says, glancing at his brother. Raph released him but grabs Mikey again, twisting his head a bit. "And…?" Raph demands. "And he's better than me in every possible way," Mikey says.
"Did you make that up or something?" Ann asks. Raph shrugs. "Made it up when we were kids," he explains.
Raph raises his elbow up and brought it down on Mikey's shell, sending him to the ground. "And…?" Raph asks. "And I'm a lowly worm beneath his feet who isn't fit to live on the same planet as him, because he's so amazing and I'm a dirt clod," Mikey says quickly.
Ann snickers a bit but stops when Splinter gives her a look. When he looks away, Ann snickers louder. Splinter growls and gives her a look. Ann snickers again, only to be whacked with his staff. "Owwwwww…" Ann mutters, rubbing her head.
Raph licks his finger and holds it over Mikey's head. He grins evilly and Mikey stares up at it. "And…?" Mikey's lip trembled. "In the history of the universe, there's never been-!" "Okay, enough," Leo tells Raph, who glares and lets Mikey go. He stands up and walks up to Leo. "We're wasting our time. The Kraang are never gonna show up," Raph replies in annoyance. "Have a little patience, will you?" Leo asks.
"No offense, but I'm with Raph on this one," Ann says. Leo rolls his eyes.
"Trust me, guys. They're going to break into the lab tonight. I have reliable intel," Donnie says, placing a hand on his chest. "Intel? You mean April told you," Raph replies with a smirk, pointing a finger at Donnie.
"Guys, stop teasing him," April tells them. Donnie smiles gratefully before his eyes widen, knowing what was going to happen next.
Mikey grins behind Donnie. "You mean your girlfriend?" he asks, blinking. Steam comes out of Donnie's head as he frowns.
April blushes and so does Donnie. "S-She's not my girlfriend…yet," Donnie mutters so April couldn't hear. "Where were you, Red?" Casey asks. "I was busy with homework," April answers.
Amy giggles a bit. "She's not my girlfriend, Mikey!" Donnie exclaims, and the others grin at each other. "She's a girl who's a friend, like Amy, whose parent was kidnapped by the same aliens who are gonna break into that lab. And we're gonna stop 'em," Donnie says. "Or we'll sit out on a cold roof all night for no reason," Raph replies before a door opens. "What the heck's going on up here?" a voice asks and they turn to see Vic.
"Ugh, not this guy again," Donnie mutters. "Uh, who is that?" Ann asks. "Ladies and gentlemen, meet the exact copy of Raphael," Amy answers. "HEY!" Raph shouts, making everyone laugh. "No, seriously, who is that guy?" April asks after they had stopped laughing. "Uh…" Leo says, trying to explain it as best as he can. "You'll see," Raph murmurs.
"What, are you playing dress up? And who's the girl?" Vic asks. "No, sir, we were just-" Screen snaps to a broken satellite dish.
Amy blinks. "Did we do that?" she asks. "I think that happened when Raph slammed Mikey to the ground…" Leo murmurs.
"Which one of you slimy green ham shanks busted my satellite dish?!" Vic demands, clenching his fists.
"Wow, this guy is already annoying," April says. "But what does this have to do with anything?" Casey asks. Amy sighs. "It's coming," she answers. Nadia grimaces. "I think I know him…" she says. Amy's eyes widen and she turns to her mother. "You know him?" she asks in shock. "Yes…I used to live in that apartment before you moved in. He was my next-door neighbor…unfortunately. He didn't like me and he tried everything to get me out. I think it was because I broke something when I introduced myself to him…He shattered my experiments, he threatened me…he even tried suing me. Eventually I had enough, and I moved out of there as quickly as possible. But not before I sued him for breaking my experiments. Took all his money and used it for my home. And I never heard from him again," she explains.
Amy blinks in shock before she narrowed her eyes. "Don't worry, Mom, he got everything that came to him," she whispers in rage.
"Ham shanks?" Raph asks angrily. "Amy is not a ham shank!" Leo replies and Amy smiles at him.
"Thanks for defending me," Amy whispers with a grin. Leo grins back. "You're welcome," he whispers back.
"I don't even know what that means…" Donnie says.
"Do you want to? Because it's not pretty," Amy tells Donnie. He grimaces. "You know what, it's not that important," he murmurs.
"Me either. But I don't like it," Raph answers, putting his hand on his sai. Leo grabs his wrist. "Let's go," he says firmly. They turn around. "That's right, you spineless cream puff! Listen to your mommy!" Vic taunts.
"Can I beat him up?" Ann asks, raising her hand. "If you can find him, sure," Amy retorts and Ann's eyes widen at the possibilities of what that meant. "I do not act like a mother," Leo grumbles, crossing his arms. His brothers decided not to comment on that.
"Hey! Watch it, buddy!" Raph exclaims, turning around and pulling out his sais. "Oh, no. I didn't know you had salad tongs," Vic says in fake fear.
"I can see why you wanted to move," Stanley murmurs to Nadia.
"Salad tongs?" Raph shouts.
"Oh, geez!" Angle mutters.
Raph runs towards Vic, but the others held him back. Screen then moves down to show the Kraang getting into a van. "I'm not gonna take this from some greasy, pit-stained slob with a comb-over!" Raph's voice shouts. "You callin' me ugly? Seen a mirror lately, circus freak?" Vic's voice retorts. "Raph, please! Just ignore him!" Amy's voice exclaims. The Kraangs' heads turn to the rooftop.
"You expect me to ignore that? He's a jerk!" Raph says. Amy rolls her eyes. "Because apparently, neither one of you would shut up," she mutters in annoyance.
"Yeah, listen to your girlfriend!" Vic says when the screen moves back to the group. "Girlfriend?!" Leo and Amy ask in shock.
Everyone laughs. "Yeah, that ain't happening," Raph murmurs. "I do love Raph, but in a brotherly way…to an extent," Amy says, muttering the last part. Ann and Leo sigh in relief.
"She's not my girlfriend!" Raph shouts. "You want a piece of me?" Vic asks.
"Why can't he just shut it already?" Mark snaps. "…I don't know. Even I kept asking myself that," Leo answers.
"When I'm done, a piece of you is all that's gonna be left!" Raph shouts, fire in his eyes as the others hold him back. A pink laser shot in front of Raph, making him pull back. The screen turns to show several Kraang standing on the opposite side of the rooftop.
"Raphael, if you had just ignored him, this whole problem could have been avoided," Splinter explains. Raph sighs and looks down at the floor. "Hai, Sensei…" he whispers.
"Kraangdroids!" Leo shouts. "Holy Toledo!" Vic exclaims. "Way to blow our position, Raph," Leo says, and the turtles pull out their weapons. "Amy, go and hide in the alley. We got this," Leo orders. Amy nods and backflips to the ground. She lands on her feet and hides behind the dumpster.
"Leo, I know you were trying to protect my daughter…thank you. I give you my blessing," Stanley says to Leo's surprise. He smiles. "No problem, sir," Leo answers.
"Scram!" Leo orders and they jump, avoiding lasers. "Holy cow. They're some kinda kung-fu frogs," Vic says, pulling out his phone and video-taping them.
Everyone except the turtles, Amy, and Splinter gasp. "He got you on video? Wow," April says. "I have a bad feeling about this…" Nadia murmurs. "Even I don't like him," Mikey inputs. "At least we stopped him…although there were a few…complications," Donnie points out.
The Kraang all stand up and ran off before the turtles could do anything. "Keep going, Kung-fu frogs," the turtles whip their heads around to see Vic holding up his phone with a grin. "This is pure gold," he finishes.
"Since when do frogs have shells?" Amy asks, crossing her arms. "We can assume he failed biology, then," Jamie murmurs.
"We're not frogs, you idiot!" Raph shouts. "Yeah, and it's not kung fu. It's an ancient Japanese battle art," Donnie retorts.
"Really?" Lily asks, rolling her eyes.
"Guys, he got us on video," Leo tells them. Raph bares his teeth and growls, veins on his head. "Not for long, he doesn't," Raph answers, running for the man. Raph jumps to grab him, but Vic shuts the door, Raph's face slamming into the door. He slid to the floor.
"Vic 1, Raph 0," Casey murmurs.
Vic can be heard laughing from the inside. "I'm gonna make a fortune off of this!" Vic's voice exclaims. Sirens can be heard. "Fire truck's en route. Thirty seconds!" Donnie says. "Let's get Amy and get out of here," Leo orders and the others start to run. "Wait! We have to find that guy and break his phone, and his face!" Raph shouts but the others had already jumped off.
"I'm all for breaking his face," Ann says and everyone murmurs in agreement.
Raph grunts irritably, throwing his arms down. He follows his brothers and Leo jumps down the manhole along with his brothers. Amy closes it behind her. "Amy! Jump down and I'll catch you!" Leo exclaims.
"Nobody say anything!" Amy and Leo shout before anyone could squeal. They look at each other and blush before turning to the screen.
Amy falls back and Leo catches her. They smile at each other. Screen then changes to show the turtles and Amy sitting on their knees. Amy was between Mikey and Leo and she had her hands on her skirt. Raph and Donnie were on opposite ends. Splinter paces in front of all of them. "Not only did Raphael alert the Kraang, but you got caught…on video!" Splinter tells them and Amy cringes.
"Ooh, someone's in trouble!" Casey exclaims. Amy blinks. "That's what Mikey said…" she replies.
"Sensei, he was the angriest, nastiest guy you ever met," Raph says.
"And I would know," Nadia mutters.
"Except for you," Mikey replies, his head popping up next to Raph. Raph hits him in the head. "Ow!" Mikey exclaims.
Everyone giggles and Mikey pouts. "That hurt," he says. "It was supposed to, idiot," Raph murmurs. Splinter gives him a look.
Amy giggles a bit. "You should have heard the insults this guy was throwing at us. They were so…insulting!" Raph explains.
"Couldn't you have found a better word?" Ann asks. "…No," Raph answers, making them laugh. Raph growls and their eyes widen.
"Oh, I did not realize he said mean things. Of course, you had no choice but to jeopardize your mission!" Splinter says. "Burn," Mikey whispers. Raph glares at him. Splinter paces in front of them again. "You are ninjas. You work in the shadows, in secret. This becomes difficult if there is proof of your existence in high-definition," Splinter explains.
"Again, wasn't a kunoichi at the time," Amy murmurs.
"Look, we know where this guy lives. All we need to do is find him and shake him until the tape pops out," Raph answers.
"Why didn't we do that at the beginning? We would have had it at that time," Raph says. "Because you wanted to beat him up before we could do anything. And besides, he ran off with the video," Donnie explains. "He's got a point, though. I would have already beaten him up," Ann mutters. "It does sound tempting…but we wanted to try a peaceful approach," Leo reminds.
"Oh, there's no tape. Video phones use flash memory-" Before Donnie could go on further, Raph gives him an aggravated look. "Anger is self-destructive," Splinter explains. "I always thought it was others-destructive," Raph mutters under his breath. "Raphael! Stand up," Splinter orders. Raph stands up. "Somebody's in trouble," Mikey teases and Raph clenches his fists. Amy sighs. "Mikey…"
"I swear, I will slap the green off you," Raph threatens, making Mikey gulp. "You will do nothing of the sort," Splinter tells him with a glare. Raph grumbles and crosses his arms.
Screen shows the tree in the dojo before moving down to the group. Leo, Donnie, Mikey, and Amy were circling him, with bow and suction arrows in hand. Raph stands in the middle of the room. "Evade the arrows," Splinter orders. "Why is Amy participating in this exercise? She's not even training!" Raph argues. "Even though Amelia has not made up her mind about training to be a kunoichi, I would still like her to have the experience. And she agreed to do this exercise," Splinter answers.
"Why?" Raph asks. "I thought it would help," Amy explains.
Raph took a stance. "Hajime!" Splinter orders.
"What does Haji mean?" Angle asks, making them chuckle. "Hajime. It means start in Japanese," Leo explains.
Mikey fires his arrow, and Raph dodges it easily. Leo shoots next, but it barely hit Raph's shoulder. Amy fires but Raph lowers his back, missing the arrow. Donnie fires, but Raph did a backflip, landing on the ground. Splinter catches the arrow with two of his fingers. "Ya me!" he orders and the others stand.
"What does that mean?" Angle asks. "It means stop in Japanese," Amy decides to say.
"Again, except Amelia, Leonardo, Donatello, and Michelangelo…insult Raphael," Splinter tells them, pointing the arrow at Raph. "I'm not too sure about this, Master Splinter…" Amy voices her concern.
"Wow, this is gonna be painful…for you guys," Mark says and Karai gives him a look. "What?" he asks in confusion. She huffs and turns back to the screen, to his confusion.
"Wait, insult him?" Donnie asks, pointing to Raph with his arrow. Raph had his arms crossed with a smirk. "Yes," Splinter answers. "And he can't fight back?" Donnie asks and Raph's eyes widen. "No," Splinter says.
"Oh, never mind," Mark says.
Donnie chuckles, looking at the others. "I'm feeling good about this plan," Donnie explains. "I'm not…" Amy murmurs. "Hajime!" Splinter orders. They move around Raph in a circle. "You're such a hothead!" Amy tells him, aiming her arrow at Raph's head. She barely misses. "No, I'm not!" Raph says. "You move like a bloated buffalo," Mikey replies, firing his arrow. Raph does a split as it soars above his head.
"I'll show you a bloated buffalo," Raph growls, clenching his fist. Amy sighs and pressure points him, making him fall to the floor. "And it's because of that anger that this happened," she tells him before putting her hands behind her head. They look at her in surprise. "Finally, some peace and quiet," she snaps.
"I do not!" Raph exclaims. "And you're always whining. Poor me, nobody understands me," Leo says, mocking a sad voice before he fires an arrow. "Well, you don't understa-" Leo's arrow hits Raph in the back of his shell. "And…Oh! You don't keep your back straight when doing omote kote gyaku," Donnie says, firing an arrow at Raph, hitting the back of his shell. "And you're ugly!" Donnie exclaims, firing another arrow that hits Raph with a laugh. "And gassy!" Mikey exclaims, firing an arrow.
"Ew," everyone except Raph mutters. He was still knocked out.
"You're just as dense as Mikey!" Amy says, firing an arrow. Raph growls and throws an arrow at her. She ducks down.
Amy hears a growl and her eyes widen. She turns around to see Raph, and he looked pissed. Amy gulps nervously. "Mother," she whispers before Raph yells, chasing her. She screams and runs around the theater. "Raph, come back here!" Leo screams, running after them. "Not until I rearrange her face!" Raph shouts. "Dude!" Mikey yells and he and Donnie chase after them. Everyone looks, not knowing what to do. "Uh, should we stop them?" April asks. "Let us see how they deal with it," Splinter tells them.
"Get back here!" Raph shouts, sai in hand. "Noo, help me!" Amy screams. Donnie and Mikey tackle him. Raph stands up, Donnie and Mikey holding him back. Leo wraps his arm around Amy's waist, holding her protectively as he points his katana. "Raph, calm down. She didn't mean it," Leo explains sternly. Raph pants and looks at Amy, who backs away a bit. Raph's eyes soften and his brothers let go of him. "Ice princess, I'm…sorry," he whispers to her shock. She blinks before smiling softly. "It's okay," she whispers back and they go back to their seats.
"Sorry, Raph," Amy tells him. "Oh, you talk so tough, but inside you're just a scared little baby," Leo taunts. "Who needs his bottle?" Donnie asks, firing. "And his diaper changed?" Mikey asks, firing an arrow as well. "You want you binky, Raphie?" Amy teases, firing an arrow. "What's the matter, Raph? Gonna cry?" Leo asks. "I…am…not…gonna…cry!" Raph says as various arrows are fired at him. An arrow hits his forehead and he falls to the floor.
"Ooh, that's gonna leave a mark," Amy mutters.
"Ahh…I wish this moment would last forever," Mikey sighs. "I'm so glad that's over…" Amy replies. "You know what?" Raph asks, standing up. "Forget this! This is stupid!" Raph retorts. "Aww, it didn't!" Mikey complains and Raph turns to the side, revealing his shell covered in arrows. He walks up to Sensei. "Master Splinter?" Amy asks. "Yes, Amelia?" he asks. "This is just a theory, but maybe Raph is like this because he doesn't know how to communicate his feelings. He needs to control the fire in him, and I think it's because he's passionate," Amy explains.
Everyone blinks. They had always questioned Raph, but they never expected that to come from anyone, especially Amy. "…How can you read people like that?!" Donnie exclaims. "I was just guessing! I didn't know I was right!" Amy answers in exasperation. "…Wow," Mikey answers. "I have no idea where that came from. It's like…I don't know, time travel for example. You know something's going to go wrong with the time difference. That's how it was when I was saying that," Amy explains, trying to make sense of the situation.
"But you guessed it correctly. No one has ever said that about Raph before," Leo tells her. "It's like she's psychic!" Mikey exclaims. Raph still hadn't said anything. "Raph?" Ann asks. Raph blinks before fainting. Amy sighs and turns back to the screen.
The turtles give a look of confusion. "Huh?" Mikey asks, scratching his head. "He doesn't always think things through before he acts. Like a hit first, ask questions later kind of guy…or turtle," Amy explains.
"That's actually a perfect description of Raph," Leo replies. "I have nothing to say about that," Raph says, blinking.
Splinter strokes his beard before nodding. "Amelia is right. Ninniku seishin is the ability to endure insults with patience and humility. You cannot be a true ninja until you master it," Splinter says. The arrows of the side of Raph's head pop off. Mikey snickers and Raph clenches his fist. "Understood?" Splinter asks sternly. Raph turns to Splinter. "Hai, Sensei," he answers. "You must get that video back. Using reason, not force," Splinter orders and Raph looks down at the floor as the screen fades away to show the street. Vic can be seen on his phone.
"Ugh, I hate that man," Nadia mutters. "You and me both, mom," Amy answers.
"That's right. I swear on my mother's grave that these guys are frogs and they know kung fu. The girl? I didn't get her on video, but she was a witness and I can prove it!" he says into the phone.
Amy gives a sad look. "Aw, his mother's dead. I feel kind of bad for him…okay, I'm over it," Amy says. Raph had to admit, he felt kind of bad…for about two seconds.
Screen moves to show the turtles and Amy. Amy scoffs. "Creep," she mutters before the screen moves back to Vic. "You can't tell me that's not worth something!" Vic exclaims before they jump down. Vic screams and looks at them. "I'll call you back," Vic says before hanging up, pointing at them. "Lay one finger on me, frog, and I'm calling the cops. That goes for the girl, too!" Vic threatens, clutching his phone to his chest. Amy nudges Raph in the shoulder. "We're not gonna hurt you," Raph growls out, clenching his fists.
"Then what do you want, freak?" Vic asks.
"He's asking for it now…" Amy mutters.
"We got off the wrong foot last night. Some things were said, and well, we would just like that video back," Raph explains.
"Oh, that's a bad idea. That won't work on him," Nadia tells Raph. "Now you tell us," he mutters.
Leo gives Raph a look. "Please?" he growls.
"Oh my god. Raph actually has…manners!" Angle says, laughing. Raph rolls his eyes.
"What are you gonna give me for it?" Vic asks, smiling.
"WHAT? Dude, Raph could have seriously injured him, and he wants money? Not cool," Casey replies. "Wait until you hear the amount," Donnie murmurs.
"Give you for it?" Raph asks. "Well, I figure I've got you over the barrel, so you've got to make it worth my while," Vic explains. "Oh, I'll make it worth your while. I won't take your head AND SMASH IT AGAINST THE-" Raph threatens, his head growing larger as fire appears behind him.
Everyone snickers except Raph.
"Okay, okay. Thank you, Raphael. Amy and I will take over," Leo says, gesturing to Amy. Raph crosses his arms and looks away, steam coming out of his head. "So what is it that you want from us?" Amy asks. "A cool mil ought to cover it. Half from the freaks, half from the girl," Vic answers.
"A MILLION DOLLARS?" Everyone except the turtles and Amy shout. "Was he just that desperate for money?!" April asks. "I'm starting to think we should have let Raph beat him up," Amy whispers to Leo, who chuckles. "And deal with the police? No thanks," he answers. "I can't believe he was excepting you to pay him," Lily says. "And I was only a witness," Amy says.
"Mmhmm, mmhmm, a cool mil of what?" Leo asks.
"You didn't know what that was?" Mark asks. "No, we never learned his language. Only English," Leo retorts.
Amy sighs. "Leo, he wants a million dollars," she explains. "Exactly," Vic answers, pointing at her. "We don't have a million dollars," Leo answers. "We do have some Canadian quarters that fell through the grate," Mikey explains. "I can make serious money off this thing. And if you don't wanna pay, then I'll just hold onto it until someone else does," Vic tells them.
"Dude, we're fifteen. We ain't got jack," Amy says, making everyone laugh.
"That's it!" Raph shouts, pinning Vic to the ground.
"Raphael, did you not remember what I said?" Splinter asks. Raph sighs and looks down at the floor. "I'm sorry, Sensei," he whispers. "Although…I see why you wanted to use force on him. And I approve," Splinter tells him. Raph gives a shocked look but he smiles.
"Hand over the video or, so help me, I'll kick your hairy butt all the way to New Jersey!" Raph threatens.
"Can we actually see that?" Ann calls out and everyone laughs. Whether or not they wanted to admit it, Vic seemed deserving of that beat down right about now.
Amy turns around when headlights appear on them. "Guys, the Kraang!" Leo shouts. "Raph!" Amy shouts and Raph turns to see the van. "Look out!" Leo screams and he and Amy push the two off the road.
"Thanks, guys," Raph tells them. They smile at him. "You're welcome," Amy replies. "No offense, but I think you should have let them run off that guy," Ann says. Amy scoffs. "I wish. I didn't like him as much as Raph, but he's still a citizen, whether I liked it or not," she explains. "Yeah, that's what I was thinking too," Leo comments.
The Kraang's van comes back around, heading towards the turtles. Amy hides behind a trash can. "Let's not let this one get away," Leo says and Raph grabs an oil barrel, throwing it at the van. The van crashes into a building. "Well, that was easy," Raph comments before the Kraang come out, firing their lasers. "Okay…" Raph replies slowly.
"Yeah, thanks for that, hothead," Amy mutters. Raph scowls. "You weren't even fighting at the time," Raph tells her. "You think I don't feel useless about that? I sat there like a wimp," Amy retorts, crossing her arms. Raph blinks at her. "…Sorry, ice princess," he whispers. She didn't respond.
Vic crawls on the floor, trying to grab his phone, but moves his hands away when lasers are fired on the ground. The phone somehow gets into the van and Raph sees Vic getting into the van. "Oh no, you don't!" Raph shouts, running towards him. "Raph, what are you doing? Get back here!" Leo orders, and the Kraang push him over. They start kicking him repeatedly. Leo holds his hands over his head to protect himself. "Raph!" he calls out.
"You could have easily took them down, looking back at it," Amy replies. Leo scratches the back of his head sheepishly. "I was caught off guard," he explains.
"We've got unfinished business!" Raph shouts, glaring at Vic. He grabs his arm. "You give me that phone right now!" Raph demands. Screen turns to Amy sitting behind the trash can. "Raph's in the van!" she hears and she looks back to see the van driving off, the turtles running after it. She backflips over the trash can and runs. Screen then turns to Raph taking down the Kraang. One of them tried to get him in a headlock, but Raph bites its arm and punches it in the face.
"Whoo, go Raph!" Ann shouts, making Raph blush.
Raph holds his hand out to Vic. "Let's get out of here," he says. Vic glares at him. "Forget it! You lizards don't wanna buy my video, maybe these guys will," Vic tells him. "Raph!" Donnie's voice shouts and Raph turns to see Donnie holding out his Bo staff, the others running behind him.
"How…did you run that fast?" Raph asks Amy, blinking. "Um…when I took gymnastics, I did a lot of running. Guess it all paid off," Amy answers. Jamie shakes her head. "This dude is just unbelievable right now," she mutters.
"Listen, you idiot! Frogs are not lizards. And we're not frogs," Raph says angrily.
"Thank you!" Donnie calls out and they laugh.
A Kraangdroid throws Raph out of the van, making him crash into the others. Vic waves. "So long, froggy," he taunts as the Kraang step up from behind. He turns to them. "Uh, thanks for the help, guys. Have I got a deal for you," he says, gesturing to his phone. They stare at him. "So are you triplets or what?" Vic asks.
Everyone slaps their forehead. "Never make a deal with the Kraang," Amy mutters.
"Ow…" Amy mutters and a hand is held out to her. Amy looks to see Leo holding out his hand. Amy takes it and he pulls her up. "Nice going, Raph," Leo says. "What did I do?" Raph asks. "What did you do? You left the four of us in the middle of the fight to yell at somebody. We could have stopped, but thanks to your temper, the guy with the tape-"
"Again, technically, it's a flash-" Leo glares at him. "Not now," he says and Donnie gives a dejected look at the ground as a buzzer goes off.
Everyone giggles and Donnie blushes in embarrassment.
"Is in the hands of the Kraang! How are we supposed to find them?" Leo's voice says as Donnie sees something on the ground. Amy looks down and sees it as well. "Look! The truck's leaking!" Donnie explains, bending down. "Alright! We can follow the trail to their hideout!" Leo says and Amy can be seen bending down next to Donnie, her hands on her knees. "Nice job, Donnie," Amy praises.
"Thanks Lia…" Donnie says and Amy gives a confused look. "What?" she asks. "Lia. The last three letters in your full name. You don't mind, do you?" Donnie explains. "No, it's just that I've never been called that," Amy answers. "Oh. Guess I'm the first," Donnie replies with a grin. "Yep," Amy answers with a smile.
"And then we'll bash some bots!" Raph exclaims, punching his fist. Leo turns to look at his brother and Amy stands up, next to Mikey. "What?" Raph asks. "We are going to bash some bots," Leo says, looking at the others. He turns back to Raph. "You are going home," Leo finishes. Amy winces. "What, are you kidding? Come on, guys. Are we gonna let Leo power-trip like this?" Raph replies. Donnie looks at Mikey before turning to Raph. "I think Leo's right," Donnie explains.
"Gee, thanks for the back-up," Raph mutters. Donnie, Mikey, and Amy look at each other. "It didn't matter what they said, I was being a leader and I was telling you to go home," Leo cuts in.
"What? Come on, Amy, not you too!" Raph says. Amy gives him a pitiful look. "It's like I said to Master Splinter. You have to control the fire in you. Otherwise, it's just going to get you in more trouble," Amy answers. "Until then, we just can't trust you," Leo finishes and they start to walk away. "Sorry Raph," Mikey tells him before leaving.
"No, I'm sorry, guys. I kept letting my anger control me and I let it get out of hand," Raph explains. They look at him wide-eyed before smiling. "Eh, happens to the best of us," Leo says. "Aww, sibling love!" April whispers. "Shaddup," Amy mutters.
Amy turns around to see Raph throwing his sais to the floor and looks away.
Screen fades to the kitchen and moves to Raph pacing. "Who does Leo think he is? So what if I got a temper? I'm still the best fighter we got. In fact, if anything, my anger makes me a better fighter. You understand me, don't you, Spike?" Raph says, looking at his pet turtle.
"Aww, you were talking to your turtle again!" Mikey exclaims. Raph growls lowly, crossing his arms. "You're lucky now, but just wait. When we get home, you're getting the most painful shell wedgie ever," Raph says. Mikey gulps and turns back to the screen. Raph looks at Spike at the screen and gives a sad look.
"Chew on your leaf if you understand me," Raph replies and Spike bends down and chews on his leaf.
His brothers and sister give a sad look. They had never really understood him. But hearing this from him… "Guys, it's okay. I don't need your sympathy," Raph tells them. Amy stands up and hugs Raph. Raph blinks in surprise before hugging her back. "When we get home, we'll try to understand," she whispers.
"Yeah, thought so," Raph comments with a smile. "I understand you too," Splinter's voice says and Raph screams a bit before Splinter is seen on the screen. "Seriously, you gotta knock or something," Raph tells him.
"Or maybe he needs a bell," Ann mutters and all the teens laugh. Splinter gives them a look and they stop laughing.
"Raphael, let me tell you a story," Splinter explains. "Sensei, I'm not in the mood for a story," Raph answers. "Spike, chew on your leaf if you are in the mood for a story," Splinter says, turning his head to Spike. Spike bends down and chews on his leaf.
"I feel like he's gonna chew on his leaf every time someone asks him," Amy says, laughing.
"Very well. When I was a young man, I fell in love with a woman," Splinter starts. Raph starts to get out of his seat. "Oh hey, is it that late?" Raph asks, looking at his arm. "Sit," Splinter orders.
Everyone laughs.
Raph sighs and the screen moves left to show flashbacks. "Her name was Tang Shen. And I was not the only one who loved her. There was another man competing for her attention…Oruko Saki," Splinter explains and thunder sounds can be heard as Oruko Saki is in his armor. "Shredder," Raph says. "One day, he insulted me in front of her. He called me many things. I felt I could not let those insults go unanswered. I lost my temper. And over time, our rivalry festered into hatred…until Shredder sought to finish me. And I lost my beloved Tang Shen," Splinter tells Raph.
Everyone blinks. Only Raph had heard this story. "You…lost your temper?" Leo asks. "Yes, looking back, it seems unlikely of me," Splinter answers. "Wow…just like Raph would," Mikey says. "That's so hard to imagine," Donnie mutters. "I'm right here!" Raph calls out, making everyone laugh.
Screen then changes to Splinter and Raph. Raph was standing behind him. "But-but it wasn't your fault. Shredder insulted you. You had no choice," Raph says. "No choice? I could have chosen to ignore him. I could have chosen to let his words wash over me. Like a river over stone. But I let him anger me. It was I who made his words into weapons. That's the choice I made. What choice will you make?" Splinter answers, walking away. Raph looks down at the floor. Screen fades to the street.
The others lean against the wall. "We're here," Donnie whispers and they look up to see an abandoned building. "Are we really gonna do this without Raph?" Mikey asks. "We can handle it," Leo answers.
"Uh-huh…" Raph says, crossing his arms.
"I don't know. It just feels like something is missing," Mikey answers. Amy smacks him in the head. "Ow!" Mikey exclaims.
Everyone laughs and Nadia gives her daughter a look. "What? Raph usually does that, and I didn't even want to do it," she explains.
Mikey grins. "Thanks, Amy," he says. "Happy to help," Amy whispers. "Let's go," Leo orders. They climb up the roof and shadows of the four can be seen on the stairs. Cobwebs can be seen and Mikey looks around. "Spiders…" he whispers as he sees a spider. Amy walks besides Leo. "So…Amy, this may seem like a bad time to ask this, but what did you mean when you said 'This isn't the first time a family member has been taken away from me?'" Leo whispers.
Ann rolls her eyes. "I was trying to get to know her better," Leo admits sheepishly. "During a mission? You could have asked at a later time," Amy replies. "I was just curious!" Leo argues.
Amy's eyes widen before she sighs sadly. "You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to," Leo tells her. "No, no, it's fine. Since I'm going to be living with you guys, I might as well tell you…" she explains. "My dad disappeared two months ago, before I moved here. I don't know how or what happened, when I came home from the grocery store, he was just…gone. No note or anything. He left his phone at home, so I have no way to contact him. I had really hoped he was still alive until I just…gave up. And when my mother sent me a ticket to come to New York, I took the opportunity," she says as flashbacks of her story appear.
Amy sighs. "I was called to come to New York for work. I should have told you," Stanley replies sheepishly. Amy gives him a blank look.
Leo gave her a sympathetic look. He was about to say something when fighting noises could be heard. Mikey was hitting Donnie in the head.
Everyone laughs and Donnie sighs.
Amy walks over and pinches their ears. "Ow, ow, ow!" Mikey whispers. "Mercy!" Donnie exclaims quietly. "Shh," Leo orders sternly and Amy lets go. She turns around and Donnie and Mikey rub their ears. Amy hides behind a crate, Leo next to her.
"That really hurt," Mikey complains. "You wouldn't stop fighting," Amy tells him.
"The image that is the image on the phone is pleasing to Kraang," a Kraang says. "This is true. Kraang is looking what is known in earth terms as 'handsome' in this phone," another Kraang says.
Everyone rolls their eyes. "Oh geez," April murmurs.
"Well, you guys drive a hard bargain. Tell you what, I'll drop it down to $500,000. And you can keep the phone," Vic offers. The Kraang turn away from him, looking at the phone. "Okay, $400,000," Vic says, desperate.
"How about none so they can let you go?" Jamie asks, rolling her eyes.
Amy smacks her forehead silently. "This is our fight with the turtles. Kraang must question where is the girl with the ones called the turtles," a Kraang says. "Oh, Pinkie? I couldn't get her on video, but she's with the frogs, too!" Vic answers.
Everyone except Amy laughs. "I was wondering how that nickname got started!" Raph says. Amy growls and crosses her arms. "I still hate it," she mutters, gritting her teeth.
"That can totally be your new nickname!" Mikey exclaims quietly. Amy glares at him. "Don't you dare, Mikey!" Amy whispers. "The usefulness of this will be proven usefully with the more watching of this. Also, this is being a good image of Kraang," a Kraang says before the screen shows a Kraang firing lasers.
"Good grief," Ann murmurs, rolling her eyes.
Amy grabs Mikey's nunchuck and throws it under Vic's chair. "Yes," Amy whispers as the blade hooks to Vic's chair. Amy starts pulling the chair towards them. Vic looks back at them. "We're gonna get you out of here," Leo whispers. "What about my phone?" Vic asks. Amy shushes him harshly.
"This guy really cares about his phone…" April inputs. "And he doesn't know when to shut up," Leo mutters and Amy giggles. "Wait, didn't this guy offer his phone to the Kraang? Why did he want it back if he wanted to sell it to them?" Amy asks. "I know Vic. He was desperate," Nadia explains.
"Don't shush me, Pinkie. I ain't leaving here without my phone," Vic says angrily.
"JUST GET A NEW ONE!" all the teens shout. "I would have left it," Karai says.
"Stop the one that needs to be stopped. Stop!" a Kraang orders. "Remind me why we need to rescue this guy," Donnie says. "Yeah, I'd like to know that too!" Amy exclaims.
"Because he has the video!" Mikey exclaims. His brothers and sister slap their foreheads.
The turtles fight the Kraang. Vic scoots his chair to grab his phone, but it is kicked away. Amy stays behind and she sees a Kraangdroid aiming a laser gun at Leo. Amy gasps and looks around. She opens a crate where a katana lay. She raises an eyebrow. Screen changes to Leo, who doesn't notice the Kraangdroid. Suddenly, the droid is sliced in half and Leo looks to see Amy. The brain pops out and runs away. Leo turns around and sees Amy holding the katana.
"So that's how you got your katana!" Angle exclaims. "So wait, you take a random sword?" Karai asks. "Time was of the essence," Amy explains. Leo looks in awe. "You saved me from the Kraaangdroid. That means we were meant to be together!" Leo says, hugging her. Amy blushes. "I didn't even know I could do that…" she whispers. "That means it's fate!" Leo exclaims. "That makes no sense…" Donnie mutters and Raph places a hand on his shoulder. "Let him have his moment," he whispers as Amy was trying to calm Leo down.
"Amy…when did you learn how to do that?" Leo asks. Vic grabs his phone which had a spider on it. "Got it!" he exclaims before a stray laser hits a jar of mutagen. Vic looks up, eyes wide.
"You know, if he hadn't cared about his stupid phone, he probably wouldn't have gotten mutated," Nadia murmurs. Everyone mutters in agreement.
A scream is heard and everyone stops what they're doing. "Kraang, go look at the place where the thing that makes the noise is, and tell us what thing makes that noise in that place," a Kraang says. Amy rolls her eyes. "Geez, talk normally, would ya?" she mutters.
Everyone laughs. "They've been on Earth for who knows how long, and they can't learn one language," Mark murmurs.
The Kraang walks into the darkness, and they wait. The Kraang is thrown back and the brain crawls out of the robot body, screeching in fear. The rest of the Kraang aim their laser guns at the darkness. A roar is heard and Amy turns around. "What was that?" she asks. "I don't like the sound of that," Mikey says. A few seconds later, a large spider mutant jumps out.
"Dude, spider mutant? That is so cool!" Casey replies.
Amy gasps and backs away a bit. "I don't like the look of it either!" Mikey exclaims. "What did you do to me? I'm hideous!" the mutant says.
"Trust me, we've seen worse," April mutters and everyone laughs.
"Don't worry. The five of us can handle him," Leo says. "Okay, this might be a bad time to point this out, but you sent one of the five of us home," Donnie answers timidly. "And right now, I wish it was me!" Mikey exclaims in fear.
"But he's outnumbered," Karai points out. "Numbers mean nothing in a fight, Miwa. You should know this," Splinter tells her. "Oh yeah, right. You guys fought Snakeweed and he was outnumbered…" she replies.
"This is your fault! I'm gonna rip your heads off!" The mutant growls and Amy cringes. "Alright guys, time to unleash the mighty wrath of justice!" Leo says, holding up his katana.
"Oh God no," Raph says, slapping his forehead. Everyone groans. "What? That's what heroes say!" Leo argues. "I'm so glad I wasn't there to hear that…" Raph mutters.
Amy slaps her forehead before snorting and giggling a bit.
"Oh. My. God," Amy says in embarrassment. "See, she likes my lines!" Leo shouts. Amy slides down in her chair, silently wishing they never saw that.
"Seriously, just yell 'get him'," Donnie says bluntly. "Get-" The spider mutant smacks him aside, making Leo crash in a pile of boxes. Donnie charges and jumps up, trying to bring his staff down on the mutant's head. The four legs throws him. Amy runs towards the mutant and he launches an appendage at her. Amy flips to her backside and high-kicks him, making him fall down. "Is that all you got?" Mikey asks. The mutant spits out acid, shot at their feet.
"You had to ask," Raph mutters, shaking his head. "Oh my god, that is awesome! For him, I mean," Ann answers, the last part sheepishly when the turtles and Amy give her a look.
"The answer I was looking for was 'yes'," Mikey answers in fear. Donnie takes his staff and swings it, trying to hit the mutant's head. He was thrown back. Mikey takes an oil barrel and throws it in the mutant's mouth. The mutant tries to bite down on it.
"Yes!" everyone shouts.
Mikey smirks and throws another barrel at the mutant. The mutant growls and spits out the barrel.
"No!" everyone screams.
Leo, Donnie, Mikey, and Amy run. The mutant uses his legs to stab at them. Suddenly, they were surrounded by acid and they fall through the floor. They stand up. "We're no match for Spider Bytes!" Mikey exclaims. "Spider Bytes?" Amy asks. "Well, he's a spider and he bites, so I thought-" Leo turns to him. "We get it!" he snaps. Spider Bytes jumps through and lands on his hands and feet. He stands back up and roars at them. They dodge left and right, but Spider Bytes rolls in front of them.
"This bug is fast!" Leo exclaims. "Yeah, spiders aren't actually bugs. They-ow!" Donnie says before he is flung around and thrown at a large crate. "Play time's over, frogs and Pinkie!" Spider Bytes exclaims.
Raph laughs and Amy rolls her eyes. "I really need to wear a nametag or something," she murmurs.
"I have a name, you know!" Amy retorts. "Wow. I didn't think this guy could get any uglier," they hear and they look up to see Raph. "Raph!" Donnie, Mikey, and Amy exclaim.
"How did you even find us?" Mikey asks. Raph smirks. "I followed the black oil road," he answers. Amy slaps her forehead. "You did not just say that," she mutters.
Raph jumps up and dives down, landing on one knee. "Well, I think you've been punished long enough. Come and join us," Leo tells him.
"What, so I can run away in fear?" Raph asks and Leo narrows his eyes. "He's really fast," Donnie mutters. "A-And pretty good, I guess," Mikey says.
"Well, hey! It's the kung fu frog with the salad tongs!" Spider Bytes exclaims.
"Did he even graduate?" April asks under her breath.
"Hey, it's the stupid loudmouth who's about to get his butt kicked," Raph retorts, pointing his sais at him.
Everyone laughs.
Spider Bytes spits acid in Raph's direction. Raph jumps out of the way. Spider Bytes rolls around and spits acid blobs around the others. They fall through another floor. Amy shakes her head as she sits up. There was thick glass underneath and Donnie looks down to see mutagen. "Uh, let's not fall through this floor, okay?" he asks nervously.
"Agreed," Leo, Mikey, and Amy mutter.
"Dance for me, frog," Spider Bytes says and spits acid again. Raph fearfully jumps back at each blob. "Watch me turn your friends into frog fries. I'll serve 'em with your salad tongs. And maybe Pinkie could be dessert!" Spider Bytes replies.
Amy gulps. "That…doesn't sound too good," she says.
Spider Bytes jumps down the hole and Raph growls. He jumps down, using the acid string before cutting it. The others scatter before Spider Bytes lands, Raph on top of his head. Raph jumps off and turns around to face the mutant. Spider Bytes turns to face Raph. "Aww, Froggie thinks he can stop me," Spider Bytes taunts as the screen changes to show them a few feet away from each other. "Ribbit, ribbit," Spider Bytes says and the screen moves to show Raph.
The humans gulp.
"What's that, tadpole? Are you too scared to leap off your lily pad and get the warts knocked off you?" Spider Bytes asks, his voice fading. Raph takes a deep breath. "Like a river over stone…" he whispers.
Splinter smiles.
Raph opens his eyes and smirks. He runs forward and jumps up, several kicks hitting Spider Bytes. He fell on his back, whimpering. Spider Bytes reaches for Raph's face with a leg, but Raph blocks it. Acid shoots towards him, but it hits the leg instead. Spider Bytes yelps in pain, bringing his legs back to him. He looks at his leg that had acid on it before looking at Raph. "That's some kung fu, frog," Spider Bytes says. The others jump down from behind Raph. Raph grins. "We're not kung fu frogs, we're ninja turtles," Raph tells him, pointing one of his sai. Raph looks at Amy and grins. "And one awesome friend!" he exclaims.
"Yay!" everyone cheers. "Oh my god, that moment is incredible!" Angle screams.
Amy blinks before grinning. They all charge. Leo slices his katana at one of the legs. Mikey zip lines across two legs using his nunchucks. He kicks Spider Bytes in the face. The mutant stumbles back and Donnie delivers his blow. Raph delivers his blow and Amy jumps up, spins in the air, and kicks the spider, knocking him back.
"That move is awesome!" Casey shouts.
Spider Bytes lands by the mutagen core, whimpering. Raph smashes the phone with his foot. "Oh! My phone!" Spider Bytes exclaims.
"Can you believe all of this was over a phone?" Lily asks.
They all close in on the mutant. He glares at them. "You guys are gonna regret this!" Spider Bytes tells them, using his legs to crawl to the roof. They follow him and when they get to the roof, Spider Bytes can be seen jumping from building to building.
"Why didn't you guys follow him?" Mark asks. "He's done enough. And plus, we were getting annoyed dealing with him," Raph answers. Amy raises an eyebrow. "We?" Leo asks, crossing his arms. "…Okay, just me," Raph replies and everyone giggles.
"I know a nice black widow that'd be great for him," Donnie says casually.
"Ugh, imagine their babies," Amy mutters and everyone laughs.
Amy turns to Raph. "Raph, I just wanna say I'm-" Raph holds up a hand. "Don't. You and Master Splinter were right. We cool?" Raph answers. Amy smiles and high-threes him. "Yeah, we're cool," Amy tells him.
"I actually thought you didn't like me," Amy replies. "Nah. You're too awesome to hate…most of the time," Raph answers, muttering the last words. Amy rolls her eyes but smiles anyway.
"Not bad for a bloated buffalo," Mikey replies. Raph smirks and looks at Amy. "Go ahead," she says to him. Raph jumps at Mikey, his arm around his neck. Mikey starts flapping his arms, the others smiling behind them. "Okay! Raph is all wise and powerful!" Mikey exclaims. "And?" Raph asks. "And he's better than me in every possible way!" Mikey screams before the screen goes to comic book style.
"I'm proud of you, Raphael," Splinter says with a smile. Raph blinks before grinning. "Yup. I saved the day," he says, putting his arms behind his head. His siblings roll their eyes. "More!" Mikey and Lily scream.
