"Ben!?" Chloe cried his name, looking through all of the bushes with her torch, only to find nothing. Chloe frowned.

"Ben? Where are you?" Mikey called his name on top of a tree he'd climbed, getting a good view of the forest, despite being completely dark.

"Ben?" April shouted as she looked behind the trees.

"We have to keep looking. He has to be here somewhere." Chloe worringly said. She didn't want to leave him alone in the dark. He never liked the dark. Chloe couldn't understand why he ran off into the forest without saying anything.

"I don't know. We've been searching for a half hour now." Mizuki told her as she looked behind the trees, along with Donnie.

"She's right. We should go back to the farmhouse." Donnie suggested. "Maybe he went back there." Donnie thought.

"Dude, if he went back to the farmhouse, shouldn't have Casey or Raph called us on the Shell-Cell?" Mikey pointed out.

"That's a good point Mikey, but they haven't, so that means Ben could still be in the forest somewhere." Donnie told him as Mikey climbed down the tree.

"Or maybe their Shell-Cell could be broken." Mikey thought.

"But still, we should head back. It's getting really late and...I hate the dark." Mizuki said, agreeing to Donnie's suggestion as she looked at the sky which is completely black, apart from the full moon.

"Me too." April agreed.

"Alright." Chloe sighed and frowned.

"Don't worry. He'll be fine." April tried to cheer her up. Donnie called Mikey to let him know that they're heading back to the farmhouse. Once they're together, they walked their way back to the farmhouse, but as they were walking back, they heard a strange growling noise.

"Dude, what was that?" Mikey asked running to go behind Donnie.

"I'm not sure." Donnie nervously answered as he lit his torch at the bush which was shaking. "I'll look." he decided.

"Be careful." Mizuki warned him. Donnie slowly approached to the bush and reached out his hand to grab it and once he grabbed it, he rapidly moved it out of the way. The others were suddenly laughing when Donnie squealed at a small squirrel.

"It's not funny." Donnie cried.

"You should have seen your face." Mikey told him, crying with tears of laughter. Then the laughter stopped when they heard the same strange growling sound, but only louder.

"Please tell me that was the squirrel." Chloe fearfully said, holding onto Mikey and Mizuki.

"I can't say that it is." Donnie said.

The growling sound got louder and louder and the growl turned into a roar. Footsteps can be heard and the sounds grew louder and louder, making the gang terrified, but the turtles and Mizuki and April grabbed their weapons so that they're ready to attack at whatever comes near them.

"Get ready." Mizuki said as she grabbed out her two katanas.

Finally, their faces became horrified when they saw a 6'5 tall brown furry wolf, with really sharp claws, brown eyes and standing on its two legs. The wolf growled, showing its white sharp teeth as saliva fell out of its mouth.

"Werewolf!" Chloe exclaimed.

The turtles and the girls jumped and tried to attack the wolf, but it swang its arm and they flew to a tree, knocking out all four of them at once.

"OW!" they all screamed in unison when they hit the tree.

"My arm!" April hel her left arm, feeling like it's broken. "I think it's broken."

"It's too strong." Mikey noted. "Donnie, what's plan B?"

"Plan B? I didn't have a plan A!" Donnie said as he grabbed and pulled Mikey and Mizuki up again.

"So what's plan A then?" Mizuki asked, but before he could answer, Chloe panicked when the wolf got closer to her and she threw a heavy rock which hit its right eye. The wolf screamed and cried in pain, covering his right eye.

"I think Chloe just answered our question." April said.

"Run!" Chloe screamed. The others went along with her and ran as fast as they can to get away from the wolf. They ran for a while and soon felt like they lost it.

"That was close." Mikey said. They stopped when they heard a crying howl coming from the wolf.

"We need to go back." Donnie said.

"But what about Ben?" Chloe asked worryingly. The wolf howled again, but longer.

"It's not safe. We'll look for him tomorrow." Donnie answered.

Chloe frowned as she let a couple of tears pour out onto her cheeks and can only hope that Ben will be okay and he doesn't get seen or attacked by the wolf that they've encountered.

(Meanwhile, in the farmhouse...)

"What was that?" Casey said.

"What was what?" Raph said as he checked on his brother.

"That howl." Casey answered looking suspicious.

"I didn't hear anythin'." Raphael put a wet cloth on Leo's head. Casey then decided to have a look around the farmhouse, making sure that wherever the sound is coming from isn't in the farmhouse. He went downstairs to the living room and started looking. He looked under the table, behind the TV and couch. Nothing. Casey then heard it again.

"Raph!" Casey called him.

"Yeah?" Raph replied.

"Did you hear it?" Casey asked. Raph came down the stairs, holding onto his sais tightly.

"Yeah." Raph replied coldly. They stuck together and went to the kitchen. Casey looked under the table and Raph looked out the window. He gasped when he saw something.

"What is it?" Casey curiously asked. He looked at the window himself and saw a man approaching the farmhouse. As the man got closer, it turns out that he was wounded, covered in scratches and suddenly fell to the ground.

"We gotta help him." Casey said. They both nodded and ran outside of the farmhouse to check on the man. When they got to him, they were both surprised to see that the man was Ben.

"It's Ben!" Raph exclaimed. After he said that, someone came out of the woods. They were even more surprised to see that the gang have returned safely. They were both happy to see each other.

"Casey!" April ran to him, giving him a hug.

"Raph!" Mikey also ran to him, but Raph held his hand in front of him, meaning he doesn't want a hug, but Mikey hugged him anyways. He was at least happy that he's okay.

"Ben!" Chloe ran to him and fell on her knees.

"We just found him." Casey noted.

"Let's get him back to the farmhouse." Donnie suggested. Raph and Casey carried him back to the farmhouse and placed him on the couch in the living room.

"Donnie, I think my arm is broken." April said, holding her left arm. Donnie checked her arm and did a few tests.

"It's just a big bruise. You'll be fine." Donnie told her smiling.

"What about Ben?" Mikey pointed at him. Donnie then approached Ben and started observing him.

"He unconscious. I really don't know how he got those scratches, but I can cover it up. I'll ask him tomorrow." Donnie said.

"Is he going to be okay?" Mizuki asked as Chloe grabbed a blanket and covered him up.

"He'll be fine. He just needs some rest." Donnie suggested.

"Hey, did you happen to hear anything strange while we were gone?" Chloe asked Casey and Raph.

"Actually, we did. Just before you guys got back, we heard a strange howl." Casey answered.

"I think at least we know what caused Ben to get those scratches." Mizuki said.

"The werewolf?" Mikey held April's hand tight when she said the werewolf.

"Werewolf?" Casey and Raph said in unison.

"That's a possibility. How else would he get those scratches?" Donnie thought.

"I thought werewolves were just myths." Raph said.

"So did I, but something must've caused them to exist. And I can only think that the possibility of a werwolf to exist is mutagen." Donnie said.

"So, who is the werewolf?" Mizuki asked.

"I don't know, but I'm sure that it's a what, not who." Donnie answered, then looked at the clock. "I think we've all been through a rough night. I suggest that we should rest too." Donnie decided.

"Good idea." April said.
