Angel: I forgot to answer to some questions last chapter, sorry, I was in a rush to update so I forgot XD. To Guest, I don't know who Amy's voice actress is in this series, haven't figured it out yet. And ask KS about her outfit, because she created it.
To Guest (I think it was a different person): I will only reveal one fact about Amy's powers: She only gets two.
Donnie's POV
I swim underwater. My name is Donatello, and right now I'm learning just how long I can hold my breath. I surface onto a boardwalk and see a vibro-cannon firing at the water. That vibro-cannon is seriously messing up the East River. I see part of the pier start to crumble. If this keeps up, the whole South Street Seaport could go crumbling into the water. I'd be fascinated by the technology…
I see two shadows on the ground in front of me. If I wasn't otherwise occupied. I look behind me to see two ninjas. Great. Just great.
No one's POV
Mikey rides a skateboard through the sewers. "He is the Alpha Dog, the Thrash-Meister, the Undisputed God of the Half-Pipe," Mikey does a flip. "Wahoo!"
Raph rides on roller skates behind Mikey. "Who needs half-pipe, bro? We got FULL pipe! Hahahaha," he does a loop around the pipe. "Woohoo, yeah! Haha!"
"Wahoo!
"Alright!"
The duo ride into the lair. Leo and Donnie ride in behind them, the former on a scooter and the latter on a bike. Donnie goes off a ramp. "Going for airplitude!" he exclaims.
Leo goes off the same ramp and grinds a table. "Going for grinditude! Woo!"
The turtles all cheer while riding around. Amy struggles to move in the roller skates she was given. She had never really learned how to roller skate. Sports gear weren't really her thing. She wears white roller skates with pink laces, shoulder pads, knee pads, and a helmet on her head. Amy falls to the ground and groans. She props herself up slowly.
Splinter walks in holding a tray of that has a teapot, teacup, and two muffins. Leo speeds past Amy, making her spin around. "Sorry, Ames. Excuse me, Sensei," Leo calls out as he rides past his master. Splinter sets down the tray on the table by the TV.
"Heads up, Sensei! I mean, down!" Donnie shouts as he rides right over Splinter who ducks. Amy wasn't so lucky, though. When Donnie rides past her, he makes her fall to the ground. "Sorry, Amy," he says. Amy huffs in frustration as she stands up.
Splinter pours himself some tea and looks to his right, annoyed. He then jumps over the table as Raph rides by and lands on the other side. "Nice recovery, Sensei!" Raph comments as he speeds past Amy, making her wobble. "Raph!" she yells.
Splinter sighs and reaches for a muffin, but Mikey rides by and grabs it. "Hey, thanks, Sensei!" Mikey replies and rides past Amy, who crashes to the floor yet again. "I'm not made out for this," she mutters as she lays on the ground. "Extreme breed!" the turtles shout as they ride around. Amy, however, takes off her skates and sits next on the couch.
"Why did I think this would be a good idea?" she asks in exhaustion. Splinter sits down and tries turning on the TV, but all of a sudden, the electricity goes completely out. The turtles crash into each other.
"Nice wiring, Don!" Mikey comments sarcastically.
"I guarantee it's not my wiring. Maybe it's a blackout," Donnie tells him.
"Maybe. Now you wanna get your foot off my shell?"
Splinter lights a match and ignites a candle. The turtles were in a pile. Amy giggles to herself, covering her mouth. "Keep that flame away from Mikey. He scarfed down a whole chili pizza for dinner," Leo warns as they untangle themselves.
"Clearly there is a power failure. I suggest you investigate and see if it can be fixed," Splinter tells them. "We're all over it," Mikey answers. He grabs his skateboard. Raph sheathes the wheels on his skates. Leo folds up his scooter. Donnie folds his bike. Amy looks at her roller skates before throwing them to the couch. "No way am I using those death traps," she comments.
"You gotta use something," Mikey points out. "You can ride with me, Ames. I don't mind," Leo tells her, blushing. Amy smiles a bit and they all run off with their rides.
"And hurry up! I do not wish to miss my favorite program," Splinter calls out. "Record it for me!" Amy tells him.
It's nightfall. The turtles and Amy appear on a water tower. "You know, I don't think Splinter meant we should investigate this far," Leo comments. "You can never be too thorough. Especially when it comes to topside time," Raph says. It was so dark, it was a wonder they could see themselves. "This whole side of town is dark. The substation must have gone out," Donnie explains. "This isn't right. Shouldn't there be some emergency lights or something?" Leo replies.
"With Mikey around, you think there would be," Amy jokes. "Hey!" Mikey exclaims as the others laugh. "Ah, I was just joking," she tells him. "Yeah. It's totally dark down there," Raph replies.
"Which means there's only one thing for us to do."
At a staircase in front of a building, Raph and Mikey grind down the railing.
"Banzai!" The turtles yell. Amy had her hands on Leo's shoulders as he rides. He stops his scooter. "Guys, you really think we should be doing this? What if somebody sees us?" he asks. Raph and Mikey join him.
"That's the beauty of it, Leo. No one can see us. It's pitch black," Raph retorts. "Get with the program, bro. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity to session some surface terrain," Mikey replies. Amy rolls her eyes. "Just because you have a 'once in a lifetime opportunity,' doesn't mean you should risk it," she points out. "Who asked you?" Raph asks.
Donnie rides up to them. "Hey, check this out," he points a distance away. They see two ninjas climbing up a building. Wearing the same outfits from before. "Didn't we fight those clowns once before?" Mikey asks. "Yeah, and we nearly got waxed," Donnie whispers. Raph twirls his sais in his hands.
"Who's up for some payback?"
Inside a museum, the two ninjas go to a display case with a sword in it. One ninja uses a device to cut a circle on the glass and take a piece out without raising the alarm. The second ninja, wearing a glove device, tries to grab it, but is stopped when a shuriken is thrown at the case. They look and see the turtles along with Amy. "Gift shop's on the first floor, boys, but they don't take kindly to shoplifters, and neither do we," Leo says.
The first ninja pulls out his own sword while the second one goes for the display case, but Amy sweep kicks him to the ground. "Now before you try to make off with the goods, you might wanna consider a few things: One, you're outnumbered. Two, don't let the pretty faces fool you. We're tougher than we look," Raph threatens. More ninjas arrive.
"And three, we're about to get our butts seriously hammered!" Mikey comments as the ninjas surround them. "Ames, protect the sword!" Leo orders and Amy nods, getting into a fighting stance in front of the display case.
A ninja charges at Leo with a staff. Leo cuts the staff in half, but the ninja makes a blade pop out each half. He charges at Leo who blocks with his shell and breaks the blades. He then knocks the ninja into another ninja. "Whew! Saved by the shell," Leo says.
Raph spins around on his skates. "Check it out! Blades and blades!" He and a ninja with a sword charge at each other. "Hahahaha!" The ninja slashes, but Raph flips over him and he winds up cutting a vase in half. "You break it, pal, you bought it," Raph tells him. He rides away with the ninja running after him. "And speaking of buying it…" Raph kicks the ninja and he goes head-first into a small gong.
Donnie and a ninja with a pole blade square off. Donnie gets on his bike and rides towards the ninja. He uppercuts the ninja with the bike, sending him into an armor display. "Alley-oop!" Another ninja runs towards him from behind and Donnie pulls out his staff. "Charge!" he yells and knocks the ninja into a vase.
Mikey rides his skateboard. "Wahoo! Bowling for ninjas!" he shouts and knocks one ninja into two more. He starts twirling his nunchucks. "Na-na-na-na-na!" he taunts. A ninja wraps a kusarigama chain around his arm. "Uh oh. Heads up," he says and jumps up to hit the ninja in the chest with his skateboard. "Way to pick up that spare," he tears off the ninja's insignia. "And a trophy to boot."
Three ninjas surround Amy. She looks at the three. "Three against one? That's hardly fair," she says before she split kicks in the air and two ninjas crash into each other. One of them sneaks up behind her and she punches him without looking. She fake yawns before piling the ninjas on top of each other, whistling. Just because she wasn't a ninja, didn't mean she couldn't help her friends.
Leo holds off three ninjas. "Little help here?" he calls out and all of them rush towards him. "We're on it!" they all call out. The ninjas get out of the way. "Look out!" they all crash into each other.
"I sense a teamwork training session in our future," Mikey comments. "Double time! They're getting away!" Leo orders. The ninjas all start to escape. The ninja with the glove goes back to the display case and grabs the sword, but is confronted by the turtles and Amy.
"Just put the sword back, sparky, and we'll call it a draw," Raph says. Suddenly, the sword emits a bright light and a shockwave blasts out and knocks them back. Amy grunts and stands up, running towards the ninja. He blasts another shockwave and she backflips towards him, dodging the blast. She jumps up to kick him, but he knocks her back with another blast. She crashes into the turtles. The ninja then escapes with the help of another ninja. Distant police sirens are heard.
Amy holds her side. "How about best two out of three?" Mikey asks. "Whoa, you okay, Amy?" Raph asks the brunette. "I'm fine," she grunts, standing up. "What was that sword?" Donnie wonders. "Hold that thought. We gotta book it," Leo tells them and they all leave.
At the Lair, the turtles and Amy are showing Splinter the insignia that Mikey took from one of the ninjas. "What does the symbol mean, Master Splinter?" Leo asks curiously. "Trouble," Splinter answers. "You know something about those ninjas? Where do they come from? Who do they work for?" Raph questions. "And what do they want from a magic sword?" Mikey asks.
"Nope, not magic. Probably more like a self-perpetuating oscillation frequency generator," Donnie explains. Mikey gives a confused look. "Uh…in English, Einstein?" he asks. "It packs a shockwave that'll knock you flat on your shell," Donnie answers and Amy raises an eyebrow, crossing her arms. "More like a blast that still hurts like shell. Ow…" she mutters, rubbing her side.
"We gotta go after those creeps!" Raph exclaims. "No. A wise ninja does not seek out an enemy he or she does not fully understand," Splinter explains. He could not tell them just yet what they were dealing with. Not until he knew for sure. "But Sensei, Bushido demands that we fight for honor and justice and—"
"Bushido also demands that you honor your master's wishes! I will meditate upon this matter further. Now take Amelia home. Goodnight," Splinter tells them, going into his room. "Aw, undergrounded again," Mikey complains. Amy laughs at their expense. "At least I'm not," she points out before frowning. "I probably should go home, though…" she murmurs, thinking about her grandmother. "Aww," Mikey whines.
"Mikey, even humans need sleep," Amy tells him gently. "But we were gonna watch a movie! You promised you would stay to watch!" Mikey argues. "Maybe you should stay. You're involved in this as much as we are," Leo tells her and she blushes, twirling her hair nervously. "Okay, fine, but only for 30 minutes," she explains. Donnie thinks. There was another way…he gets an idea. "Hey!" he exclaims, walking away.
"Where are you going, Brainiac?" Raph asks. Donnie goes to the computer and they follow him. "There's more than one way to seek out your enemy," Donnie explains, typing away.
Meanwhile, in a palace, a man enters as four ninjas bow in front of him. His name was Oruko Saki, leader of the Foot Clan. He then removes the top of his robe. Suddenly, one of the ninjas jumps up and attempts to attack him, but Saki kicks him away. Another ninja throws a kusarigama chain at him, but he flips out of the way. Another ninja appears behind him, and Saki frontflips and uses his leg to throw the ninja into another ninja. A large man with blonde hair and a dragon tattoo on his arm suddenly appears, carrying something with a sheet over it.
"Ah. Hun," Saki says. Hun walks towards him, but Saki holds his hand out to stop him. "One moment."
The four ninjas charge at Saki. Saki kicks the first one, punches the second one, kicks the third one, and grabs his sword. He finally uses the sword to block the fourth ninja's sword and kicks him away. After all four ninjas are down, Saki puts his top back on and walks up to Hun.
"I trust you bring good news?" he asks. Hun kneels and presents the item. Saki removes the sheet to reveal the sword from the museum on a pillow. Saki becomes pleased. "The Sword of Tengu," he grabs the sword. "Still just as potent, after all these years," he holds the sword in front of a glass case with armor inside and the blade glows. "And still able to locate other artifacts that share its unique origin. Yes, this sword will help me track those that I have been hunting for all these years," he places the sword back on the pillow.
"Bring it to Tech Division. Tell them proceed with Phase Two."
Mikey is eating a bag of chips while reading comics. He looks back slightly at Splinter's room. "What's up with the big cheese? He's been zoning in there all day," he comments. Leo practices his moves. "It's that ninja symbol. It's got Sensei all weirded out," he answers. Amy was fixing up one of her old sweaters. "Maybe he knows more than he's telling us," she points out, and she growls in frustration when she misses a stitch. She unravels it before starting her sewing over.
Raph hits a practice dummy. "Enough of this waiting around! I say we head up top-side, kick ninja butt, take ninja names, and find out the whole ninja story ourselves!" He spins around to behind the dummy and kicks its head off, landing it on Mikey's bag of chips. Some crumbs land on Amy's sweater.
"Whoa! Remind me never to get on your bad side, dude," he says and Amy looks down at her sweater. "Agreed," she says dryly before wiping the crumbs off. "Too late," Raph replies while walking away. Leo jumps in front of Raph. "Hang on, Raph. No one's going anywhere," he tells him. "Oh, so Amy can leave, but I can't?" Raph asks angrily. "That's different, she's not a mutant turtle," Leo argues. "She is right here," Amy calls out sarcastically.
"Guys! Check this out!" Donnie calls to them while on the computer. "I hacked into the power company's computer system. Looks like there's another blackout down by the South Street Seaport," he explains. "I smell a rat…and I don't mean Splinter," Raph walks away. "Hang on, guys. Splinter told us—"
"Not to go after the ninjas. He didn't say anything about not investigating power failures," Raph points out, walking away with Donnie and Mikey. "Excellent. I have a few new surveillance toys I wanna test," Donnie replies. Leo looks at Amy. "You're going with them?" he asks, crossing his arms. "Well…Raph does have a point for once. We are supposed to find out what's the cause of these…power failures," she explains before running after the three.
"Wait up! It's tough being the leader," Leo sighs and runs after them. They all leave, not knowing that Splinter was watching them.
Later atop a bridge at night, the turtles along with Amy look and see a whole part of town is pitch black. "Total blackout. Just like last night," Raph says. Donnie goes through his bag. "But this time, I came prepared," he explains. He pulls out a special pair of goggles. Mikey grabs them and puts them on. "Awesome! Total turtle vision!" he exclaims and Amy snickers.
Donnie grabs the goggles and puts them on. "Night vision, actually," he corrects. "How do we survey such a large area?" Leo asks. "I came prepared for that too," Donnie answers, pulling a switch to expel wings of a hang glider. "I've been dying to try this puppy," he comments. "Aw, no fair," Amy complains with a pout.
"You mean you haven't tested it yet?" Leo questions. "Dude, how's he supposed to test a flying machine in the sewers?" Mikey argues. "We'll stay in touch via shell cell. I've worked out all the theoretical aerodynamics," Donnie hands Amy a shell cell and runs towards the edge of the bridge. "It's practically fool—" Donnie runs and dives off the edge and starts gliding. "PROOOF! WHOA-HAH-OH!"
"But is it Don-proof?" Raph asks sarcastically and Amy starts laughing. "Don? Don!" Leo talks to Donnie over the shell cell. "I'm okay. No problem," Donnie explains. He heads straight for a support on the bridge. "Uh oh," Donnie quickly turns. "Whoa! Just forgot to compensate for the wind drag on my bo-staff," he comments and notices a strange beam emitting from a cannon hitting the water. "Guys, I'm picking up something strange down on the river," he explains into his shell cell.
"What is it?" Leo asks. "It looks they're searching for something under the water," Donnie tells him. "But what could they want from the river?" Amy wonders. "Who's searching?" Leo demands. Donnie notices two technicians with the same insignia from before. Of course. "It's our ninja buddies again," he answers and sees the Sword of Tengu inside the cannon. "They have that sword they stole rigged up to some kind of vibrational cannon. I'm over Pier 16," Donnie reports.
They start moving. "We're there," Leo says. Donnie flies towards the cannon's beam. "I'm going in for a closer—" he accidentally gets caught in the beam. "LOOOK!" Donnie shouts, spinning out of control.
"Don, what is it?" Leo asks in concern. "WHOA! Mayday! Mayday! I'm going down! WHOA!" Donnie lands in the water. They stop. "Don! Can you hear me? Say something, bud," Leo says into the shell cell. "If he's not out in five seconds, I'm going after him," Amy replies in worry. Donnie comes out of the water near the now destroyed glider. "Man! That water stinks! And this is from a turtle who lives in the sewers," Donnie comments over shell cell.
"Yes!" The three turtles and Amy exclaim, pumping their fists. They keep moving and see the cannon. "I have a visual on the cannon. I only see two guys. But that just means the others are hiding," Leo explains and several ninjas appear from a nearby boat, surrounding them. "I hate it when he's right," Mikey mutters.
"Let's turtleize them!" Leo, Raph, and Mikey shout. They fend off many ninjas on the boardwalk. Leo jumps onto the boat and fights more ninjas. Meanwhile, Donnie surfaces on another boardwalk. He is ambushed by ninjas from another nearby boat. He jumps onto the boat and fights them. Meanwhile, Raph climbs up a cargo net attached to a pole on the boat. A ninja uses a kama to cut the net. As Raph falls, he uses his sai to stop himself near the bottom of the pole. Two ninjas appear around him.
"Why you…!"
Leo hears a scream and turns to see Amy being held by a ninja. "Let her go!" Leo shouts, kicking him away. Amy sighs in relief. "You okay?" Leo asks her. "Yeah. You?" she replies, panting. "Yeah," Leo answers with a smile.
Meanwhile, the technicians use the cannon to raise a part of the land under the water. One of them contacts someone. "We found what we're looking for. Bring in aerial support."
Mikey backs up on the boat while spinning his nunchucks at ninjas. "Avast, ye scurvy seadogs! Argh, shiver me timbers! Blow me down!" Mikey laughs until he backs up into a wall. "Okay, about that blow me down part…" They charge at him but a sail falls on top of them thanks to Leo. "Thanks, bro."
Meanwhile, a helicopter flies in and grabs a corpse out of the water. Back on the trio boat, Raph faces two ninjas. One of them throws a kusarigama chain at him but Raph blocks it with his sai.
"Nice try, dipstick," Raph says. The other ninja wraps a chain around his legs and he trips over a railing and hangs upside down. The first ninja jumps down below him. Suddenly, he yells in pain and when he falls, Amy is holding a pipe. "Nice shot," Raph comments.
"Who says they never cut you a break?" Leo asks, swinging by and cutting Raph's chain. "Not pretty, but I'll take it," Raph replies, twirling his sais.
Donnie faces two ninjas. He throws them both into a nearby lifeboat and lowers it onto the water. He's joined by the other three and Amy. "I think this teamwork effort gets a most improved," Leo says. Donnie looks at the cannon. "School's not out yet," he points to the helicopter. "That's one cool as shell copter." Amy rolls her eyes. "Admire later, Donnie."
Mikey sees the corpse being pulled out of the water. "What's up with Barnacle Bill?" he asks. "Whatever it is, it can't be good," Raph comments. The helicopter flies away. The four turtles and Amy head to the cannon. The techs deactivate it. As they're getting ready to leave, Leo appears on the edge of the scaffolding they're on. "Now, boys, there's a small matter of some stolen property we need to discuss."
They try to run, but Donnie appears on another edge.
"Dudes, you really shouldn't be playing with such dangerous toys," he fake scolds. Raph appears on the edge next to him. They back away, only to bump into Amy. They turn to her and she smiles evilly, waving. They run in a different direction, but Mikey appears on another edge and makes an angry face. One tech tries shooting a laser at him, but Mikey ducks it. Leo kicks the tech down and his laser hits the console on the cannon, causing it to malfunction.
"It's overloading! I can't control it!" the first tech shouts. "Who cares? We're leaving!" the second one says as the helicopter comes back and they both jump on. "They're getting away!" Raph yells and the helicopter leaves. "Dang it!" Amy exclaims and the cannon starts up again and turns to face the shore. "I think we've got bigger problems," Donnie points out.
The cannon blasts the shore, causing it to crumble. "Talk about bad vibes," Mikey says. "Not funny, Mike," Raph retorts. "Don, can you shut it down?" Leo asks. Donnie jumps atop the cannon. "Well, I might be able to disconnect the sword from the accelerator," Donnie uses his staff to open the back of the cannon, "but crossing the power terminator could result in a feedback bloom that might—"
"Donnie, whatever!" Leo shouts, turning to Mikey, Raph, and Amy. "Meantime, let's point this thing away from civilization!" he orders. They try moving the cannon, but a police helicopter approaches. "This is the police! You on the pier! Stop where you are!"
"Hurry up, Don, before we end up on 'America's Most Wanted Reptiles!' …And Girl!" Raph exclaims and Amy slaps her forehead. "Almost there," Donnie tells them. He pulls a plug that causes the cannon to start spinning, knocking him off it. "We gotta steady this thing!" Leo shouts and uses a crowbar to hold it in place. Donnie tries grabbing the sword, but is shocked. Leo grabs the glove and tosses it to him. "Here, try this!"
Donnie puts on the glove and grabs the sword. They then take off. "Let's get outta here!" Donnie yells. Amy suddenly stops and looks down to see her heel stuck in wood. "What?" she asks in disbelief, trying to move. The scaffolding and the cannon fall in the water. The cannon makes a blue explosion underwater. "Whoa. Awesome light show," Mikey says. They see the police helicopter.
"And speaking of light shows…" Leo points out. "Wait, where's Amy?" Donnie asks. Their eyes widen as they realize the brunette was not with them. They call out her name and Leo sees bubbles where the cannon fell. "Ames!" he realizes, running towards the water. "Leo, what about the helicopter?" Donnie calls out. "Go. I'll rescue her," Leo shouts back before jumping in.
He looks around before seeing Amy floating in the water. He grabs her and swims back up. He gasps before turning to her. "Ames…?" she coughs and opens her eyes. "Thanks, Leo," she murmurs before he swims back to shore. He avoids the lights of the helicopter before they run off.
Later at the lair, they're showing Splinter the Sword of Tengu. Amy had a towel wrapped around her. He's now wearing the glove. "The design is unmistakably eleventh century Japanese, but the metal is unlike any I have ever seen. Clearly there is more to this sword than meets the eye," he explains, placing the sword on a stand. "Best that it remain out of the wrong hands.
Meanwhile, at the palace, Oruko Saki is speaking with the two technicians. "For a long time, longer than you can possibly imagine, my enemies have managed to elude me." He stands up about the corpse, which is now in a glass case. "Here at last is proof of their presence in this city, and all it cost me was the Sword of Tengu!" he says, the second part angrily, knocking over an empty glass case next to him.
"Master. There were…extenuating circumstances. These four strange creatures and a girl. They came from nowhere," one of the techs explains. Saki shows them a thermal image of the turtles and Amy. "Were these the creatures and girl you saw?" he asks. "Oh yes," the techs answer. Saki looks at the image.
"That will be all."
The techs bow and turn to leave. When they get to the door, however, it opens and reveals Hun, who grabs them and closes the door. He was not going to let them go unpunished. "These freakish thorns in my side must be removed, and the girl too." He places the image on the table and grabs a claw blade near it. "Permanently." He stabs the image, determined to destroy them.
