Angel: I can't say for sure how many chapters this movie will be. I can estimate under 20 chapters, but I haven't worked further on this since two days ago. I'm running around like crazy to get stuff done for my trip ^^' Hey, you gotta prepare in advance...
"Defense!" The crowd cheers, stomping their feet as the turtles are still up in the rafters. One slice of pizza falls from the pizza box and before any of them could notice, it falls onto the stadium. Leo glances at Mikey, who cringes. One of the players trips on it and the turtles quickly leave. The two players wrestle for the ball. The referee calls for a foul.
"Foul?! No way, look at this pizza on my Nike! It's pizza! Look at it, look at my shoe! Explain that to me. It's pizza on my Nike!"
"Hey man, welcome to New York."
Vern glances up towards the Jumbotron, wondering if the turtles were there...
The moment replays on the Jumbotron.
Mikey uses his hoverboard to skate through the sewers.
She's halfway from the stadium when she decides to take a walk in the sewers. Amy thinks about her recent conversation with April. She'd like to start living her life in terms of romantically, but in terms of both of their situations, Leo was a tall mutant turtle, and she was a half-mutant adult woman. He has his life with his family, and she couldn't bring herself to force him to take that big step forward in their relationship.
No matter how much she wanted marriage...children...grow old with him...
She lets out a sigh and hears familiar voices.
"That was a close call," Donnie comments to Mikey.
"We're gonna have to find a new spot to watch the game now, Mikey!" Raph retorts to the youngest brother, who comes to a stop near Amy.
"Hey baby cakes!" He winks at her before noticing the festival from the sewer drainage.
"Mikey! What are you doing?" Raph comes back to him along with Leo and Donnie.
"It's the Halloween Parade, bro. I've always wanted to be in the Halloween Parade. It's the one night of the year where we fit in. Even Amy here got to perform in one when she was just starting out," Mikey looks at all the people dressed up in colorful costumes.
"Mikey, we'll never fit in," Leo says, shaking his head. He knew better than to hope. "We're ninjas. We live in the shadows. Let's go." He takes the lead and everyone follows except for Mikey.
"Yeah, let's go."
He walks towards a panel that lifts above to the ground, leaving him out in the open. "Cool," He comments at all the people. No one seems to notice that he looks real. He looks at all the commotion, seeing a yellow car pull up to him. It stands up, revealing a person in costume.
"Looking good, bro," He compliments Mikey's costume.
"Whoa..." He gives the guy a high three. "Thanks man!"
He turns back into a car, following the others down the road. Leo lifts his head up from the manhole cover. "Mikey. Mikey!"
"What's the problem?" He asks innocently. "This is my city," He jumps, stomping on the cover and making Leo go away. "This is my people! Heh heh," He takes a microphone from a guy dressed like a DJ. "New York in the house!"
Everyone cheers at his declaration and for once, he feels accepted among the people...like he belongs here. He's suddenly pulled into the sewers by Raph.
"That was the most amazing thing ever!"
"What part of ninjas move in the shadows don't you understand?" Raph growls at him.
"Mikey, that was really dangerous," Amy frowns, crossing her arms. "Not to mention obviously wrong!"
Donnie's communicator suddenly beeps and he answers it. "April, how'd it go?"
"Donnie, I'm looking at the data from Baxter's IPad," April is walking into a subway station, still in her schoolgirl outfit.
"Hey, you got in. What'd you find?" Donnie asks enthusiastically. She looks at her phone to see the data deleting itself.
"Hold on, Donnie, the files are erasing. It's some sort of self-destruct program."
"Erasing?" He asks in surprise.
"Before they started erasing, I had a chance to read a couple of Baxter's emails, and I was right. Baxter is working with the Foot Clan. Shredder is being transported to a prison in upstate New York tonight. And the Foot Clan are planning on hitting the convoy."
Donnie slowly realizes what the plan was in horror. "They're gonna break him out of police custody. He'll be free again!"
"Who, Donnie?" Leo asks slowly.
He turns to them, uttering the name that brought them to the very core. "Shredder."
Amy shivers, hugging herself. Leo engulfs her into a hug. The same man who killed her father...was going to be broken out of jail? They had to stop this; her father's killer deserved to be punished for what he did to them.
A man is being escorted by police while in handcuffs. The other officers simply stare at the lone man who terrorized New York last year. They have their guns ready because he was that dangerous for them to have precaution. The back of the van sits in front of them, ready to take a mad man...
Two other prisoners are waiting inside, seeing him. "Beebs," The bearded man jerks his head to outside and his friend looks to see the man being taken inside the van. They turn him around and sit him down as he's in chains.
They look away as the man is restricted to the chair, the two officers getting out.
"Hey Jones!"
A rookie cop glances behind him to see his captain. "They're all yours."
Casey Jones puts on his hat. "What up, big daddy lawbreaker?" He teases as he steps up to the van. "On behalf of the people of New York, welcome...and big goodbye." He closes Shredder inside and the van takes off, guarded by other police cars as they take off into the streets.
Emily, Amy's mother and April's aunt, is re-lighting candles while her husband Splinter is balancing himself with one finger.
"You have meditated for nearly 24 hours. In 10 seconds, you will reach Nirvana and total spiritual enlightenment. 10, 9..."
The turtles and Amy slide into the tunnel, the waters splashing around.
"Three, two-"
Splinter opens his eyes, grabbing Emily and jumping out of the way as a big splash hits them. The five rush past them.
"Excuse me? Alright, slow down. Does somebody want to explain?" Splinter demands and Leo runs up to them.
"Sensei, Mother, the Foot Clan are attempting to break Shredder out of custody," Leo explains to the two. Over time, the turtles have come to accept Emily as their mother, and April has gotten used to Splinter being her uncle. In a way, she looked up to him as a family figure, so it worked out well for them.
Splinter sighs at this news. "If Shredder is free...his reign of terror over the city will be begin again."
"Exactly," Leo nods in agreement.
"There's only one question...why are you wasting time talking to a grumpy old rat? Go get him!"
"You are not grumpy," Emily kisses his cheek. "But you are still wet."
Leo chuckles at them and runs off. "Thanks Mom and Dad!"
Emily whistles with her fingers and he turns back to her. She holds up the keys and throws them to him. "Thanks," He rubs his neck sheepishly.
"And Leonardo? I'd like to talk to you when you arrive back from your mission, regarding Amy."
Leo pauses at that, but nods firmly. Hopefully it wasn't anything too serious...
They come to a stop in the vehicle that would get them there. "Hey guys, don't get too excited. It's still a work in progress!"
Donnie pulls back the cover to reveal a large moving van. They all gasp sharply and Donnie turns on the lights, revealing a really cool area. "Oh whoa! Are you kidding me?!" Mikey looks around in awe as Raph steps in.
"I'm telling you guys, a lot of tweaking required," Donnie says from up front. "When it's done, it'll be amazing!"
"This is unfinished?" Amy asks in surprise, turning to him.
"Well, no time like the present," Leo puts in the keys and twists them, causing fire to come out from the back. It takes off onto the sewers, speeding down the tunnel like a race car. While Donnie is speaking, Leo sees a road block up ahead.
"Donnie! Donnie!"
He flips a few switches and suddenly, they're on the streets.
"Alright. Shredder's convoy is 7.2 miles east northeast. Punch it!" Leo orders and Donnie does so. Amy clenches her fists in determination. No matter what, she'd avenge her father. She was just glad that she had family to help her out...
