This chapter begins with Amelio discussing plans with the other turtles on how to save the city from Blender's reign of terror. It has been a week since his last encounter with Blender, and he's been busy trying to save everyone. However, even Amelio can't save the city on his own. He needs the help of the other turtles in order to do so!
"Yo, Paco! What do you need with us?"
"I've spent the past week picking up comrades who will assist us in taking this city. I have enough supporters and weaponry to take on what the military will send against us. I just need the help from you three. I have even arranged for better weaponry for us."
"I absolutely abhor violence! Why must I join in on this barbaric quest?"
"...If I didn't need your help, I would have killed you a long time ago, culo. You'll be able to live outside, and have your own faggy vegetable garden, or whatever the hell you want to do with your outside space. You'll even have an army of followers, since we'll be the leaders of an army."
"In that case, I'll join in. I guess even a gentleman like myself has to get his hands dirty every now and then, doesn't he?"
"By the way, what weapons do we get?"
"Despite Cornelius annoying me for the rocket launcher, I'm taking it. My switchblade knife was only a symbol in the streets, and is useless in heavy combat."
"So what is my weapon, Paco?"
"I've given you two things, esay. One, I've taken that dead moose in the fridge and heavily mutated it. It is now alive, and ride-able with some heavy armor for protection. It's now tougher than a tank. It can also spit fire. Two, I've taken your chainsaw and lengthened the blade...five times. I know how you love having overkill weaponry, so I picked the most over-the-top thing I could think of."
"Fuckin' right! This is so kick ass! Nothing's more awesome than riding a giant mutated moose while wielding a massive chainsaw! You outdid yourself this time, Paco!"
"Well what do you have in store for me? This can of mace is only for warding off molesters, and isn't for actual combat."
"This is a special kind of megaphone. It can either project your voice or focus it into one spot. Your voice is now that much more dangerous. Oh, and here's a light saber for close combat. Don't ask me how I got my hands on it."
"Good job, Amelio. Maybe I will let you eat from my vegetable garden when I plant one. Once you go organic, you'll never go back."
"What about me? Do I get a Gatling gun or something?"
"Lamp...you'll get the most powerful weapon of all, and that's counseling."
"Excuse me?"
"Use Lamps again, man. You've mastered the strongest martial arts ever known, and we need that in order succeed. We need your Lamp-Fu!"
"I refuse! I'm tired of being associated with lamps! Do you know how many times Cornelius has rubbed on me to get a genie to come out of me?"
"Holmes, you are the only master of the most powerful martial arts in existence. You sacrificed your identity to lamps so you could master lamps. You even used to love lamps. Get over your annoying teenage rebellious phase and fight at full power. You're far stronger than any of us, and we'll need that strength. Do you want to live your life as a whiny little girl who hates his strange name and can't live to his fullest potential, or do you want to live as a proud man with a silly name who crushes everything in his path? There was once a man who was named Betty, and he didn't let that stop him from living proudly as Betty! Accept it! Love lamps! Embrace lamps! Become lamps themselves! You are the glass of your lamp!"
"..."
Lamp doesn't say a word to Amelio, and leaves for his room. Amelio decides to try again later, and asks Cornelius and Postulio to come with him to meet their underlings. They head out for the city, and see that it is full of life and energy. People are cheerfully playing in the city. They're setting things on fire, breaking things, and other fun activities. There is even a couple playing tag.
"Someone! Help me!"
"Get back here! I'm nowhere near done with you!"
They eventually meet up with a large huddle of people, all equipped with highly destructive weapons. All of them are eager to meet up with Amelio's strong brothers.
"Greetings amigos! These are two of the leaders of our army! The strongest one is having complications, so he won't be with us until later. We have taken over this city, but that's not good enough! We should aim higher, because the army will eventually try to take us down! Lets-"
As Amelio was about to continue, the stage he was standing on was blown up. In the distance is Blender, who is walking towards the crowd with an army of tanks behind him. There's also jets shooting down some of the crowd.
"I've had it with you monsters! This time, I'm giving it everything I have!"
"Amigos! It's time! Fire everything you have to take these culos down!"
Amelio shouts to the crowd, as he destroys one of the jets with a rocket launcher shot. Cornelius gets on his giant moose, and gets his chainsaw started. Postulio tries out his new microphone, and destroys a few jets with the widespread function. Blender jumps into the crowd of Amelio's army, and starts slicing the people up with a sword. Everyone hesitantly fires at Blender, but end up killing their own allies with their overly heavy weaponry. Amelio orders Postulio to take on Blender using his light saber. As Postulio starts running towards Blender, Blender retreats, and throws some grenades into the crowd, with Postulio in it, which kills another large portion of the crowd. Obviously Postulio is undamaged, but annoyed at the loss of his followers.
Cornelius is taking the tanks down with ease. The moose doesn't flinch at the tank's weaponry, and Cornelius's upgraded chainsaw cuts through the tanks like butter. He may be in the crowd of tanks on his own, but he has more than enough raw fighting spirit to take the tanks on while everyone else is struggling with Blender.
"This is so kick ass! I'm the freaking mutant black knight! Welcome to my slaughter house you god damn tanks!"
Amelio orders the remaining followers to run away, and leave the fighting to his brothers. Unfortunately, Blender isn't nice enough to let them just leave the field.
"Humans or not, anyone allied to the turtles must die!"
"I won't let you kill my gardeners!"
Blender throws a few more grenades at the followers, but Postulio intercepts them all. Just as Blender tries running toward the crowd again, Amelio fires a rocket at him. Blender jumps out of the way, and to Amelio's surprise, Blender was standing in Cornelius's direction. The rocket flies past where Blender was, and ends up hitting Cornelius. Luckily, Cornelius isn't bothered by the rocket, and continues his rampage. Some tanks managed to slip past Cornelius, and start firing at Amelio and Postulio. Postulio tries to fire a scream in their direction, but Blender slices the megaphone in half. Just as Postulio tries to intercept him, Blender immediately retreats, throwing more grenades at him. Both Amelio and Postulio can't find an opening to attack, and end up getting caught in a barrage of tank and jet fire.
Despite Cornelius's amazing momentum, his chainsaw runs out of gas, leaving him wide open for attack. He took down most of the tanks, but some still remain, and they fire at him mercilessly. His moose's fire breath takes a few of them down, but the other tanks are out of his fire breath's range. Even Cornelius ends up getting caught in a barrage without a means to attack. Blender smiles triumphantly as the turtles are rendered helpless.
"My revenge is almost complete. I just need to keep firing at you until you eventually break. Then I'll take down the one that isn't here."
"You'll need much more than that petty army to take down the mighty Lamp!"
The sky suddenly darkens as Blender's enjoying his triumph. Surprised, Blender looks up to see Lamp standing on top of the tallest building around. Blender gasps in amazement, as the sky is covered in floating Lamps.
"I am the glass of my lamp.
The light is my soul, and electricity is my life.
I have created over a thousand lamps.
Seen by many
Known by none
I have sold my individuality to lamps
Yet I'll never bathe in their brilliant light
So as I pray
Unlimited Lamps!"
Lamp waves his hand, and as he does, lamps start crashing down at the enemy. Every tank and jet instantly explode as they're hit by a lamp. Blender manages to swat away every lamp that falls down at him, but he's starting to get tired. Lamp creates a lamp post and jumps down the building. Lamp stands on equal level to Blender, staring at his new prey while holding a lamp post as a weapon.
"You've caused more than enough trouble for us, you little bastard. I don't know what we did to you, but your revenge attempts end here."
