Jolting awake, Donnie felt a strong grip that shook him by the shoulder. The room spun as he jumped out of the bed. Regaining his senses, his wide eyes locked onto Raph. He sighed with relief and looked around the room. Moonlight seeped in and filled the room with a glow. To him, it felt rather stuffy in there.
"How long was I asleep for?" He yawned out, looking at Raph.
"Only a few hours. Leo said it's time and he sent me to wake you." His brother replied in a smooth voice.
"Come on, sleepyhead." Raph lightly punched his arm.
"Hey! Alright, I'm coming." The taller turtle protested.
Following his brother, Donatello walked with heavy footsteps. Tiredness still clung to him, but he shrugged it off. If anything, he knew that he was just as strong as his brothers; he did not want to hold them back. Each step and the creak of the boards echoed throughout the house, letting the others know he was up. They made their way to the basement, where the glows emitted. Without haste, he entered the ship and began to work.
Within minutes of furiously typing, he shouted "Finished!" and Donnie unhooked his laptop with a fluid motion, making the wires spark from the control panel. Then he set a virus into the ship's mainframe, so that the Kraang could not access it. Leo signaled everyone upstairs and into position. Donnie was the last to leave the basement, closing it behind him. His position was to be outside, hiding next to the house within the shadow. Time seemed to edge along slowly, and each passing second made him tense up even more. It was like something was crawling on his skin and was trying to push him down into the bare ground.
In the distance, he spotted flashes of pink light. It grew closer to their location with speed. Tensing up, he prepared for their landing. It took no time at all for them to arrive. With their landing, the ground beneath him quaked from the pressure. It was rather decent sized, spherical ship. It was perfect for their plan.
"Ok, so far so good. I hope this works." He whispered to himself.
There was a loud hissing noise and the entrance to the ship opened. A bright purple light emitted from within it. Drawing out his staff, he waited in anticipation. Two Kraang bots stepped out, their feet sunk in the dirt with each step. They were both armed with a firearm; Donnie presumed it was for precaution.
"Kraang has arrived at the location Kraang was sent. Kraang has brought the shipment. The location that was given to Kraang, looks bad to Kraang." One of the bots said. Their pink eyes glowed within the moonlight.
"Yes, Kraang. It appears that the location that Kraang was ordered to locate was off. However, Kraang is positive that a Kraang unit is here. Kraang must enter the building." The other bot replied.
Leo was located in the woods, hiding behind a barren tree. Mikey was on the other side of the house, watching Leo. He was assigned to help Donnie sneak into the ship and capture it, while Raph, Casey and April were to ambush the two Kraang once they enter the house.
Once they opened the front door, the signal was given. Feeling adrenaline pump through his body, Donnie rushed to the ship. Mikey followed and together they entered, keeping their guard for anything. Coming to face to face with a Kraang bot, Donnie ducked as a punch swung at him. The sound of shooting flew passed him as another bot shot at his brother. However, Mikey dodged with skill and he knew that his brother could hold his own. He had bot facing him and needed to focus.
Leaping forward, he swung his bo staff at his enemy's head; it didn't succeed. He then lunged forward, dodging the incoming blow. Regaining his footing, Don spun around to jab his attacker. The hit landed directly in its torso, causing the bot to stumble backwards. Suddenly a "Heyaaah!" filled his ear as Mikey struck the bot that was firing at him.
Inside the house, a similar scene was playing. Casey shot one of the bots with a puck, it made contact with its head. Raph swung his Sai next, striking it in the chest. Purple sparks flew in the air, and its partner shot at April. The missed shots burned holes in the walls of the house. She couldn't afford to get hit with one.
Back inside the ship, Leo had joined the fray. Since only one of the bots was armed, he decided to help Mikey take that one out, while Donnie held off the other one. Don faced the opponent before him, still feeling energy pump through his muscles. He felt determination to defeat the bot.
Rushing towards him, he leaped into the air to drive his staff at him. It made contact and Donnie followed up with a kick. Feeling the hard metal make contact with his foot, he put his weight behind it, knocking it down. The bot grabbed his leg, dragging him down as he got back up. A surge of pain went through him as his shell slammed into the ground hard. Shaking it off, he rolled backwards and got back up. With determination, he swung the staff once more, but released the blade at the end. It made contact with neck of the bot, causing it to explode with bright sparks. Putting force behind it, he decapitated the bot.
Leo and Mikey took down the other bot and then struck down the headless bot, putting it out of commission for good. The Kraang that were in their droids fled the scene, squealing away. Smiling at each other, they caught their breaths. Donnie wiped his brow and then sheathed his staff. He had a job to do, while Mikey and Leo went to check the situation in the house. He began to dig through the cargo of the ship.
The others took out their assigned bots and were resting. Leo and Mikey came in, glad to see that the bots were taken care of. They helped dispose of the bodies down in the basement and then got to work gathering up their packed items.
In the kitchen Mikey could be heard talking to Icecream Kitty. "Come on kitty, kitty. Into the cooler you go!" He had to tug her out with force. Once he had her, he put her into the cooler and shut it. Everyone was ready and they exited the house. April took one last look at her family's home. It felt alien to her, with all the drastic changes. "I wonder if I'll ever come back here." She thought to herself. Everything was closed up and they entered the ship; ready for the next phase of the plan.
