An hour later of waiting Donnie emerged from the lab. His face was showed how uneasy he was. "Is she ok," asked April in a small voice. Splinter was also in the living room. When the brothers left the laboratory, they told Splinter all about their encounter with Crow. Donnie nodded. "But there's something I—" "We need to say," said Crow as she came out of the room. Donnie rushed towards her as she began to fall. "You can't walk, not like this," Donnie whispered to her. "Yes I can, I'm, I'm fine," she said while leaning on Donnie's shoulder. Donnie helped her towards the couch where she collapsed on it.
She winced when she tried to sit up. "Crow this is Master Splinter," Raph said shyly. "I know, I know. You're Raphael, Michelangelo, and Leonardo," Cori said while pointing at each of the turtles. "How did you know our names? Are you psychic like April? Wait, wait. What am I thinking of," Mikey said excitedly. "Yes, well no I… I have powers." "So you're a super hero," Mikey said. "No, I can access people's minds when I touch them. But it has to be skin to skin contact. I can read Donnie's and April's minds and their memories and experiences." "Whoa." "So what are you doing with the Kraang," asked Leo.
"Well last year, there was an attack by aliens. The government says that there was some gas leak that makes you hallucinate and what we were really seeing was a blimp but nobody buys it. Then one day one of my friends went missing. That's when I really got interested in the Kraang. One day she came to my house. Her clothes were all ripped. She said that the Kraang were following her. At the time I had no clue what the Kraang was, but I knew something was wrong. Then randomly she just ran away after telling me that. I ran after her and saw these men kidnap her. I wanted to do something but I was…"
She stopped and cried softly. "I'm sorry, she uh, I was just too scared. They took her and I wanted to save her. I realized that it was my fault that they got away so now I'm still searching for her. But whenever there's a mutant or robots I know it's the Kraang. I know about the mutagen and the portals. I even know about them working with the foot. I have a colleague who gives me information." Cori wiped her face dry. She smiled weakly at them. "At least I haven't died yet. It could always be worse." They were all left in silence.
"What time is it," Cori asked. "It's almost midnight," said Splinter. "I, I need to call my mother." She looked up at Donnie. "Do you have my phone?" "Here," he said as he passed her phone to her. The screen was cracked from the fight. Cori dialed a number. "Mom, yeah is it okay if I stay with a friend. Sorry about the lateness. I lost track of time. No, no we just got lost. Yeah I have my sleepover stuff. Is it okay if I stay the weekend? Including Monday. Thanks. I love you, bye." She looked up from the phone with weary eyes. "Is it okay if I stay for the week end?" "Yeah," stuttered Raph.
"Oh geez, I got to get home," said April. "I'll see you tomorrow or today." "Let me go with you," offered Donnie. "Just give me a sec," he said. He helped Cori up and walked her to the extra bedroom. Donnie came back and escorted April out. One by one the brothers went to their bedrooms and fell asleep.
