Here is the next installment of a gripping tale of sex, drugs, and rock and roll… Just Kidding.

I do not own Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but they can use my ideas if they want…


"You were supposed to leave!" The large Raphael yelled, staring at the group of tiny turtles.

"Well… yeah," The small Donatello murmured, rubbing the back of his neck uncomfortably.

Raphael let out a growl, annoyed at the turtle's incompetence.

"Hey now, let's all just relax." The large Donatello said reasonably. Raphael grumbled into silence.

"What seems to be the problem?" Splinter asked, standing then using his cane to limp forward towards the group of small turtles.

The small Donatello frowned and looked at his contraption. "I don't know. It looks like there isn't anything broken on it. I just…" The turtle trailed off into silence looking upset.

"Well let's take a more in depth look at my work station. Maybe something was dislodged when you fell from your dimensional traveling," The large Donatello tried to soothe the little turtle's self-doubt.

As the two Donatello's walked over to the workstation, followed by Master Splinter, Mikey launched himself towards the small turtles. "So you guys are staying for longer?" He asked excited by the prospect of people who seemed to be on the same "wavelength" as he was.

However, his jubilation was met with a worried, small Leonardo. "This isn't something to be excited about. If we can't fix the device that we have already, we could be stuck here forever, and then who would be there to stop the Shredder's plans, even if they are stupid and implausible."

"And what about April?" the little Raphael murmured. "Without us she will be tormented daily by those mutant…things."

The large Mikey became somber for a moment, thinking their predicament over before walking over to the three turtles and slinging his arms around the two turtles on the end (Raphael and Leonardo). "Well if Donatello's on the case, there's nothing better you can do, right? So, let's just relax until there is something we can do! Look I will show you around the place. It's pretty awesome if I do say so myself." Mickey smiled widely, as he slowly pushed the three turtles away from the couch and towards the middle of the cavern.

Leonardo, Raphael and Casey looked on.

"It's amazing how Mickey can change the atmosphere of the room with just a few sentences, "Leonardo murmured to Raphael.

Raph rolled his eyes. "What the heck are you talkin' about. People are just so surprised by his stupidity that they can't stay nervous."

Casey sighed. It seemed that Raphael was always harping on Mickey these days. Casey blamed it on the fact that they had finally found out Shredder's real face and defeated him and the Foot ninja clan. Now that the small red alien was out in the middle of space, the turtles no longer had any real imminent threat. Raph no longer got his daily "exercise" and was therefore taking it out on his brothers, the easiest one to pick on being Mickey.

Leonardo ignored Raphael derisive comment to watch as Mickey showed the small turtles around in the shortest way possible. He stood in the middle of the room and pointed at things yelling out the names of the places and what usually happened in it's vicinity, ("that's the gym, where we work out and kick stuff", etc.). Whenever a small turtle raised a question, Michelangelo would stumble over some semblance of an answer and continue without pause to whatever else he was talking about.

The one thing Mickey took time describing, however, were the bikes and skateboard that they owned. That was where his expertise lay. Than, he would get on the transport and show them every trick and piece of equipment he knew about it.

In the lab area, Big Donatello and Little Donatello were talking parts in the oddest of terms. The large turtle knew everything in terms of scientific equipment, where the small turtle understood things in description and action. So the conversation went like this:

The Large Donatello looked the device over carefully. "So what is this? Is it an energy converter, or maybe this is a coupler."

"Oh that!" The Little Donatello exclaimed, "That's the lighting doo-hickey, it goes off with the pulse of the instrument."

"Oh…so it carries energy around the sphere area to continuously create energy?"

"Yep, and than, when the light reaches the brightest it can, it shoots through this pipe-thingy and explodes through the wiggly thingies before going around whoever's touching it."

"Ah… The energy travels to its peak before entering the conductor area. Then it follows the path of conductors before reaching an end-point at these… oh what would you call them…"

Splinter looked on mildly amused.

Leonardo glanced back at Raphael, after making sure everyone was content in their own worlds, and realized that he had to find a distraction quickly before Raph blew a fuse over the little turtles whom Mickey had roped into learning how to bike, and skateboard, and any other tool he could put in their hands (they were really quick learners to). He was about to ask him for a sparring match when Casey beat him to the punch… literally.

Casey smacked Raph in the shoulder.

"Dude! What the hell!?" Raph yelped, staring at Casey like he had grown another head. Even when Casey was holding back he hit really hard.

Casey smirked, "What man? You weren't paying attention."

Raph frowned at him for a second before reaching out to swipe him in the head. Or at least tried to. Casey slipped out of range, just in time, taunting the turtle with a "so close!"

Leo smiled to himself knowing that he would not have to save anyone from being killed today. He walked over to the couch watching his surroundings calmly, making sure everything was going according to plan.


1 hour later…

"We did it!" The smaller Donatello crowed walking out from the little alcove. The Larger Don followed looking slightly annoyed, followed by the calm as ever Splinter.

Leo jumped to his feet from his meditating on the couch. As he walked towards the purple duo he heard a Thud! to his right alerting him that Raph had once again pounded Casey to the floor. He heard the "Whoop"s behind him quiet also as Mickey's group heard the news and came to investigate.

"Well what was it?" Leo asked trying to keep his excitement just as contained as his sensei could.

"It was out of power…" The larger purple turtle replied morosely. "It took us an hour to figure out that the thing was out of batteries."

Leo smiled soothingly at the poor turtle before focusing again on the situation at hand. "Well what does that mean? Do we have to plug it in or something?"

The little turtle started shaking his head. "The reason we transported off of our world was because we had added a glowing disc to the side of the device, here." The small Donatello pointed at a grey dish that was on the side of the contraption. "This thing used to be bright neon blue."

"So now we have to find some kinda alien device?" Raph growled out. He was feeling better after beating Casey 15 to 14, but he didn't like the sound of a wild goose chase.

"So… this thing is blue and circley… right?" Michelangelo murmured, staring at the disc on the contraption.

"Yes, Mickey…" Donatello replied, suppressing the urge to roll his eyes.

"Oh…" Mickey reached into his belt pocket, pulling out a cylindrical blue disc. "So like this, right?"

All of the turtles and Master Splinter froze. (Casey was finally getting off the ground, so he had no clue what was going on.)

"Where did you find that!?" The Large Donatello yelped jumping forward and snatching the device away from the Little Donatello. He then pulled the dead disc off of the contraption so that they could look more closely at the similarities between the disc from the device and the disc in Large Mickey's hands.

"Well I saw it lying on the floor when I was hanging with the guys," Mickey explained, motioning towards the three little turtles who were looking on impressed.

"That was quite easy," Little Raphael murmured.

"Yeah, almost like…"

"Deus Ex Machina*." Little Leonardo finished for the Little Michelangelo.

Mickey beamed at the fact that he found the missing puzzle piece.

"So, this little thing goes on that device and these guys can go home?" Mickey clarified with Donatello, reaching for the device that he had.

"Yep!" Donatello smiled happily not realizing what Mickey was doing.

"That's awesome!" Mickey grabbed the device bringing the glowing "battery" to it's rightful place. "Here, dudes, I'll put it on for you!"

Donatello yelped a "NO!" grabbing the device. Leonardo sprung into action from the right, reaching out to grab the "battery". Raph swiftly made a grab at Mickey's arm that was holding the battery, hoping to stop whatever it was that Mickey was messing up. And that is why, when Mickey connected those two pieces together, he was not the only turtle to be sent off into the multiverse.

The four small turtles looked on in shock.

"Hey man… what jus' happened?" Casey asked staring at the space where the four large turtles had just vacated.

The small Leonardo looked up, his small face pinched in places. "We just lost our way home."


*For you who does not know what that means, it literally means "God from the machine". I like to think of it as an author shortcut to stop long adventures or explanations. So like in Scooby Doo, when they unmask the villain and it turns out to be someone whom the audience never met, and never saw the ending coming. This also happened alot in some of the old Sherlock Holmes writing. Of course, I would never do that to you guys... .

So here you go, after a long tiring wait… hope you liked.

R&R and I will think of typing another chapter… jk I will type another chapter… whether you like it or not.
