Summary: Working together alongside the Amazons with the aid of the Turtles and the Mutanimals, the Lotus must brave the bizarre world of Dimension X to save the enslaved people of New York.
The Lotus Jet soared itself through the dark clouds towards the TCRI building.
"So, do we even have a real plan here or are we just flying it for our first road trip?" Ella asked.
"The Mighty Mutanimals and the Amazons have their part of the mission." Donna answered. "First they break into TCRI and then Dr. Rockwell and Dr. Whitman activates the portal to Dimension X."
"Oh yeah! Smart me, here I come!" Ellie smiled proudly.
"That part I got, but what about 'saving millions of mutated New Yorkers' part?" Ella asked again.
"Well, Donna got her super retro-mutagen potion." Lee pointed out as she steered the jet carefully. "It will work, right, Donna?"
"Of course." Donna grinned. "And once we change all the humans back, Whitman will hone in on us with the Kraang portal and, theoretically, teleport us all back to Earth." Then, she smiled sheepishly at her three sisters. "Hopefully. Maybe."
"Okay. We're dead." Ella said with a deadpan look.
"Dimension X, here we come." Lee said as her eyes looked down at the distant TCRI building. "Let's hope the Amazons open the portal on time."
Inside the TCRI building, the Amazons made their way into the room with the portal located and watched the Mighty Mutanimals fighting against the Kraang droids. They joined the fight and took down every Kraang droids coming in their way one by one.
"Doc, get that portal up pronto!" Slash ordered Rockwell.
"Whitman, help him out!" Samara ordered Whitman.
Immediately, Rockwell and Whitman quickly rushed towards the computer as they typed their fingers onto the screen to hack into the Kraang system.
"Hacking in now." Rockwell said.
As Slash and Samara kept the two geniuses busy to buy them some time, the mutant monkey and the mutant chameleon have finally finished hacking the Kraang computer with their vast intellect.
"The portal is up!" Whitman said to the Mighty Mutanimals and the Amazons.
Outside, a large blast of purple light erupted from TCRI building roof and opened a swirling portal within the stormy clouds that caught the Lotus Ninjas' attention by surprise.
"Well, what do you know? They did it!" Ellie exclaimed.
"Amazing!" Lee muttered. Her eyes spotted the familiar green blimp heading into the portal. "And it looks like the Turtles are heading to the portal as well."
"Let's help them, mates!" Ella shouted with a pirate tone in her voice. "This pirate jet is about to sail into the world of Dimension X!"
"Ready your oxygen converters, girls." Donna reminded.
The Lotus Ninjas slipped their specialized transparent masks on as the Lotus Jet sailed itself into the spiraling pink portal.
Unknown to the mystics, Valerie watched the Lotus Jet entering through the portal from the building rooftop. Her legs quickly transformed into high-powered rockets and she flew her way straight through the portal.
In Dimension X, the Lotus Ninjas could feel their hairs sticking in the air upwards. Lee, Ella, and Donna watched as the dimensional energy from the invisible air slowly changed Ellie back into her cool savage mode. Ellie's hair and eyes was still the same, but this time she wore a black sleeved jacket with two long thin tails hanging from the back over a dark orange crop top with black silver metallic belts, a short dark orange shorts, a pair of black fingerless gloves, and a pair of black military boots.
"Well, that's 100% better." Ellie said with a serious tone in her voice.
"I'm starting to dig on the outfit." Ella smiled.
"So, Ellie, any idea on where the Kraang are keeping all those mutated humans?" Lee asked.
"Not to worry. I can sense them close by with my sound hearing waves." Ellie said.
Ellie closed her eyes shut and concentrated on her sound-based abilities to track down the humans. With the amazing clarity and frequencies around the environment, her ears can pick up every single sound of the Dimension X. Quickly, Ellie had located the source of human-kraang hybrids sounds from a mile away in the Lotus Jet when her eyes popped open.
"That way!" Ellie said as she pointed her finger up north.
"You heard the woman, Donna! Full speed ahead!" Ella shouted to Donna.
Back in TCRI, the Mighty Mutanimals and the Amazons weren't doing too well. They kept battling off against the Kraang droids while trying to keep the portal open for their allies as long as possible.
"We gotta keep that portal open for the sake of the city!" Slash shouted.
"We can't let the Turtles and the Lotus trap in the Dimension X." Samara cried.
"It's impossible! They just keep coming!" Pigeon Pete shouted back.
"Yeah, no kidding!" Amber remarked.
Suddenly, Ms. Campbell and Ms. McGuire marched their way into the battle. A couple of Biotroid and Irma droids showed up slowly behind them.
"Biodroids. Irmabots. We are in a staggeringly phenomenal amount of danger. Destroy the mutants!" Ms. Campbell and Ms. McGuire ordered evilly.
"Mutanimals, don't let 'em near Rockwell and Whitman!" Slash commanded his two teammates.
"Amazons, cover them at all cost!" Samara commanded her two teammates.
Leatherhead, Mala, Pigeon Pete, and Amber understood as they fought the Kraang droids and bots while trying to not let any of them near Rockwell and Whitman. But Pigeon Pete and Amber got hold down by a few of the Irmabots. Slash and Samara got knocked away by a Biotroid as well as Leatherhead and Mala. Seeing their teammates down and out, Rockwell used his psychic abilities to fire the Kraang Laser Guns at the Kraang droids, Biotroids and Irmabots telekinetically while Whitman kept a close eye on the Kraang computer. Two squad of few Irmabots began to form a pyramid with Ms. Campbell and Ms. McGuire on top. Two of the Kraang laser guns coming from Rockwell's psychic powers hit two Irmabots on top, making Campbell and McGuire jump up in the air. Campbell swiftly knocked Rockwell's Psychic Amplifier from him that weakened his powers while McGuire swiftly kicked Whitman away from the computer, allowing two Biotroids to grab a hold of them.
Back in Dimension X, the Lotus Ninjas are still searching for the mutant humans around the upside-down area.
"Where are all the people? Feels like we've been searching forever." Lee groaned.
"You got any idea where we're going, Ellie?" Ella asked.
"Of course, I do." Ellie replied simply. Her eyes widened open when she saw a familiar bulbous white worm with beady black eyes flying straight towards them. "It's a Kraathatrogon! Man the defenses! Step on it, Donna!"
"On it, Ellie!" Donna screamed.
Donna piloted the Lotus Jet and typed her fingers on the control panel buttons to access the list of weapon choice for the red mystic kunoichi. Ella immediately pressed a button and launched out a powerful blast of bright green energy at the Kraathatrogon. The giant worm had a weak effect against the energy blast, causing itself to crash through the flying jet and destroying the left wing in the process. The Lotus Ninjas screamed as the Lotus jet went flying out of control, making Ellie swiftly pick up her three older sisters in both arms. The orange mystic kunoichi jumped out of the jet to land safety on a nearby floating island near the crashing Lotus Jet. Ellie dropped her older sisters down on the silver metallic ground.
"Thanks, Ellie." Donna smiled surprisingly.
"Not a problem." Ellie said. Her gaze traveled to another island and her eyes widened wide when she pointed her finger forward. "The humans that got Kraangatized have been turned into servants and are mining energy crystals for the Kraang."
"Ellie, you never cease to amaze me." Lee admitted with a smile.
"So, we figure out a way to turn the humans back." Ella said.
"And then the Mutanimals and the Amazons figure out a way to bring us all home." Donna finished.
"It doesn't seem possible." Lee commented.
"Girls, it's the Mighty Mutanimals and the Amazons. They got it all under control." Ellie said.
Meanwhile, the Mighty Mutanimals and the Amazons didn't have everything under control. Pigeon Pete and Amber are still being held down by some Irmabots. Slash and Samara immediately noticed that both Rockwell and Whitman are being held by two Biotroids, Ms. Campbell, and Ms. McGuire. Also, Leatherhead and Mala got hold down by a couple of Biotroids, who were blocking them from saving Rockwell and Whitman. Slash and Samara then noticed both of their team are now being held hostage.
"No!" Slash and Samara cried.
"Give up, mutants, or your friends will perish." Ms. Campbell and Ms. McGuire demanded.
"Slash! Samara! You can't let them deactivate the portal!" Rockwell begged.
"The Turtles and the Lotus will be trapped in Dimension X!" Whitman pleaded.
Slash and Samara exchanged worried looks, but they are forced to give up in defeat and watched the Kraang droid deactivating the portal from their very eyes.
Back in Dimension X, the Lotus Ninjas observed three nearby floating silver metallic islands full of human hybrids through their telescopes.
"There are several human hybrids on those islands." Lee stated.
"But how are we gonna turn all those mutants back into people?" Ella wondered.
"In case you keep forgetting, we just need to search a massive amount of mutagen and convert it into retromutagen with my potion." Donna reminded.
"Oh, that is?" Ella asked sarcastically.
"There'll be ton of mutagen inside of that thing." Ellie said as she was pointing her finger into the sky at the Technodrome.
"A technodrome?" Lee exclaimed. "You're crazy! What makes you that we can steal a technodrome?!"
"And how are we supposed get there?" Ella wondered. "Because of that Kraang worm, our jet is toast now."
"Or we could borrow one of those stealth ships parked over there." Donna said, pointing her thumb over her shoulder.
Lee, Ella, and Ellie stared at the stealth ships before turning back at the purple mystic kunoichi.
"Well, it was obviously sitting there. I'm just saying." Donna said with a shrug.
"Now that's what I'm talking about." Ella said.
"All right, girls. Stay clear and keep quiet." Lee said.
As the Lotus Ninjas ran forward and leaped off the island edge to sail themselves on the island that they were aiming for. Once they landed on the next island, a familiar female android stood in front of them with arm laser cannons.
"Don't come any closer to those ships." Valerie warned.
"Not this girl again." Donna groaned.
"That's right, ladies! I followed you from here from the city!" Valerie announced. "Now surrender quietly or I vaporize you."
"Vaporize this!" Ellie shouted.
Ellie unleashed a powerful supersonic scream that sent Valerie flying off the island hundred feet away from the island.
"You rock, little sister!" Ella shouted with a smile.
The Lotus Ninjas moved and hopped into the Kraang stealth ship, leaving Donna to run into the control panel and started tapping a few keys on the advanced alien computer tentatively.
"Get this baby moving, D!" Lee said.
"Starting it now." Donna responded.
"Do you know how to fly this thing, right?" Lee asked slowly.
"Oh, calm down. If I can drive the Lotus Jet without a fail, then we'll be just fine." Donna said confidently.
"Yeah, you don't know how to fly this thing." Ella said with a deadpan look.
"I got it, ladies." Ellie said as she pushed the purple mystic kunoichi out of the way and began pressing her fingers on the alien keyboard.
In an instant, the ship sailed perfectly into the sky as it was setting off course to the technodrome. After the Kraang stealth ship left in the sky, Valerie woke up from her consciousness and transformed her right ear into a communication device to contact the Kraang from the high base.
"This is Valerie contracting to base! Lotus have stolen the stealth ship! Unleash the Dracodroid!" Valerie ordered.
In the sky, Ellie piloted the stealth ship to the Technodrome as smooth as possible.
"So, does anyone have a plan when we get to the Technodrome?" Ella asked.
"No, not exactly." Donna said slowly.
"Uh, girls. We've got a big, bad problem right here!" Lee said in a panic as she pointed her finger in front of the ship's screen.
Ella, Donna, and Ellie followed Lee's finger as they collectively saw a metallic two-headed dragon creature appearing from the view. It was Dracodroid that the Kraang have sent out. It was flying straight in front of the stealth ship at full speed.
"Ellie, what is that thing?" Ella screamed.
"That I'm not sure, but I know it can't be good!" Ellie responded.
"Step on it!" Ella shouted.
"Brace yourselves!" Ellie hollered.
Ellie immediately piloted the stealth ship wildly around the air while avoiding the Dracodroid's electric shocks coming in the way, but the Dracodroid was still chasing after their tails. Ellie detected the Kraang-like forest up ahead and sailed the ship into the trees as she stayed away from the long silver trucks effortlessly that made the Dracodroid stopped itself from chasing them when the path was blocked. Unfortunately, the Dracodroid reappeared behind the girls.
"Left, Ellie! Go left!" Ella shouted.
Ellie steered the ship to the left side of the sky.
"No, go right, Ellie! Right!" Lee shouted.
Ellie steered the ship to the right side of the sky.
"Ellie, look out!" Donna cried as she saw the Technodrome in the view screen.
The Lotus Ninjas screamed as the stealth ship went crashing into the into the side of the Technodrome.
"Well, we made it!" Donna groaned with a grin.
"Yeah, that was easy." Ella smiled slightly.
Back in the TCRI building, the Kraang had placed the Mighty Materials and the Amazons in a huge containment tank.
"Let us out! I swear, once I claw these walls down, I'll...!" Samara hollered, slashing her claws wildly against the glass.
"Forget it, Samara. It's useless." Slash sighed hopelessly. "It's my fault we got captured. Maybe Leonardo was right. Maybe I'm not fit to lead this team."
"I have seen you save humans from the Kraang, rescue your fellow mutants." Leatherhead said encouragingly. "You are a good soul, Slash."
"He's right, Slash. Leatherhead, Rockwell, and Pigeon Pete aren't a great team without you." Mala said with a smile.
Samara nodded her head in agreement and formed a soft smile at Slash on her face.
"Thank you, brother." Slash smiled as he placed his hand on Leatherhead's shoulder.
"But if we can't save the Turtles and the Lotus, then all of the humans of New York are doomed." Amber stated.
"I'm losing it, guys. The walls. Too cramped!" Pigeon Pete said in a panic.
"Calm down, man! I'm trying to focus!" Rockwell snapped.
Whitman only remained silent as she was guarding the mutant monkey to make sure that the Kraang doesn't raise any suspicion while Rockwell was concentrating with his psychic mind.
Inside the Technodrome, the Lotus Ninjas launched into action to take down every incoming Kraang droids and raced towards the main control room while cutting down every Kraang droids that get in their way. The four mystic kunoichis entered through the open door and found the four masked mutants finishing out all the Kraang droids in the room before Ella used her magic to lock the door from the other alien robots. The Lotus Ninjas and the Turtles ran up to each other with smiles on their faces.
"Guys, you're here!" Lee smiled.
"Just in time!" Leo smiled back. He looked back at Donnie. "Donnie, what have we got?"
"Good news. It looks like we have access to their mutagen supply through this fuel tube." Donnie reported.
"And not only do they use mutagen to terraform, they use it to power the ship." Donna added as she looked at the large supply of mutagen. "We've got a massive supply like that much."
"Nice thinking, Donna." Donnie smiled at the purple mystic kunoichi.
"It's kinda what I do." Donna smiled back.
Quickly, Mikey began tapping his fingers on the control panel that made two control handles popped up in front of him. He immediately used the handles to start moving the technodrome.
"Yes! She's moving!" Mikey smiled.
"Let's save New York!" Ellie grinned.
Back in the TCRI building, the Mighty Mutanimals and the Amazons are completely puzzled by Rockwell's mediation.
"What's Rockwell doing, Leatherhead?" Slash asked the reptilian mutant.
"Focusing." Leatherhead replied simply.
"But without his psychic amplifier, his power is greatly diminished." Mala reminded.
Both teams watched as Rockwell slowly concentrated on his limited psychic powers. Unexpectedly, one of the Kraang's broken head started to lift slowly in the air and zoomed over to the computer that accessed the system to release the eight mutants in the process.
"You did it, Rockwell!" Whitman smiled as she hugged the mutant monkey softly.
"Freedom!" Slash and Samara cried.
The Mutanimals and the Amazons charged to attack against the Kraang once again as Rockwell and Whitman rushed towards the Kraang computer screen to reactivate the portal for the Turtles and the Lotus.
"We still have to reactivate that portal!" Rockwell said.
"On it." Whitman nodded.
Meanwhile, the Turtles and the Lotus Ninjas watched as the ship's scanners zoomed in one of the metallic islands that revealed a bunch of human-kraang hybrids working up the crystals.
"We have a visual on the human hybrids, Donatello." Leo called to his purple masked brother.
"Give me two seconds." Donnie responded as he grabbed his retromutagen in his hands.
"We need that portal ready to go, Donatella." Lee called to her purple mystic sister.
"Still working on it." Donna replied as she grabbed her retromutagen potion in her hand.
Donnie and Donna plunged the orange substance into the insertion spot that emptied the whole thing into the ship's fuel tank. The Technodrome immediately came to a complete stop just when everyone saw the ship's light shortened out and heard loud grinding noises.
"Something's wrong." Lee said.
"What's going on, guys?" Leo commanded.
"We told you. The technodrome runs on mutagen." Donnie responded frantically.
"But the engines just can't take retromutagen." Donna added worryingly.
"Not to worry, guys." Ellie said as she started tapping the control panel. "I just need to alter the ship's fuel convertors, tweak the quantum defiblitrons, and voila!"
The Technodrome whirred itself to life back again as it started moving and the entire fuel tube filled with orange retromutagen.
"Alright, Mikey, get this thing moving!" Raph shouted. "We have to save the human!"
Suddenly, the Turtles and the Lotus Ninjas heard a loud chainsaw sound coming from the door that revealed Kraang Subprime and Valerie in the small silt.
"Here's Kraangy!" Kraang Subprime said evilly.
"Prepared to be destroyed!" Valerie said slyly.
"Okay, we need that portal open!" Leo shouted.
"Call up the Mutanimals and the Amazons!" Lee yelled.
"Come in, Doctor Rockwell. Come in, Doctor Whitman!" Donnie called as he tried to contact the Mutanimals and the Amazons into his T-Phone. "Doc? You there? Anybody?!"
Donnie and Donna looked to their siblings with panicked looks on their faces.
"They're not answering! If they can't transport us back, it will cancel the entire rescue mission and us going home." Donna said worryingly.
Back in the TCRI building, Rockwell and Whitman were still working on opening the portal while the rest of their team kept covering them to not let the Kraang getting any closer to them. Slash and Samara stopped Ms. Campbell and Ms. McGuire from doing the combination attack on the smart mutants.
"Just do it already!" Slash and Samara yelled at the mutant brainiacs.
"Now, if we can transform the portal into a three-dimensional coordinate locked beam." Rockwell muttered.
After few seconds of working on the Kraang computer, Rockwell and Whitman finally reactivated the portal.
"Yes! The portal is a go!" Whitman smiled to the mutants.
Back in Dimension X, Donnie's T-Phone vibrated suddenly and Doctor Rockwell successfully appeared on the screen.
"Donatello, we are back online." Rockwell said. "Thirty seconds until we teleport you home."
"Sending coordinates now, adjusting for fifth dimensional space." Donna said as she tapped away on the Technodrome system panel.
The Technodrome screen moved in on the Kraang New Yorkers.
"There they are! The hybrids." Mikey whimpered. "Aw man, look at them! They're forced to work like Kravarian ant-people."
"But not much longer." Ellie said.
"Ellie's right. You ready with that retromutagen, Raph?" Leo asked, turning to Raph and Ella.
"Locked and loaded!" Raph nodded.
"Fire at will, Ella!" Lee shouted.
Ella pressed a button together and fired out a beam of retromutagen that hit the all the humans on the island, returning them back to normal in an instant.
"You're on fire, Ella." Mikey praised.
"But we're not done just yet." Ellie reminded as she looked back at the door.
"We're just getting started, mutants and mystics!" Kraang Subprime bellowed as he and Valerie kept trying to open the door.
"Donnie, Donna, we need those humans teleported out now!" Leo shouted.
"I'm on it!" Donna nodded.
Donna quickly pressed a few buttons that sent all the humans back to Earth.
"We did it!" Donnie exclaimed as he hugged Donna tightly around his arms while unaware of the purple mystic kunoichi blushing for that. "We turned a multidimensional transmit device into a mass-displacement teleporter!"
"I have no idea what you just said, but hooray." Raph grinned.
"That's how we're going home, Raph." Mikey cheered. "Teleportation, y'all."
"So, all Donnie and Donna have to do is beam us out of this dimension." Ellie said.
"Well, I suggest Raph. He's going first." Ella smirked at the red masked turtle.
"No way! Forget it. You're not beaming my particles!" Raph insisted.
Suddenly, Kraang Subprime and Valerie busted through the door with Kraang droids behind them.
"Surprise! Forget about us?" Kraang Subprime cackled.
"Okay, let's start beaming particles, Donnie!" Raph said in a panic.
Leo and Lee launched forward as they started attacking the Kraang droids down with everything they got.
"Eliminate the ones called the Turtles and the one called the Lotus." One of the Kraang droids spoke.
Lee sliced the Kraang droid as she and Leo leaped back to avoid the neon pink energy laser blasts.
"You've gotta hold 'em off, guys! I've gotta pilot this thing!" Mikey shouted.
"Hold 'em off? How?!" Leo and Lee demanded.
"Yeah, that's a real good question, freaks." Valerie said with a grin.
Valerie fired neon pink energy missiles from her arm cannons, but Leo pulled Lee out of the way from the missiles.
"There's one last island!" Ellie reported. "Do we have enough retromutagen left?"
"Down to 10%!" Donnie responded.
Raph and Ella fired the button again that freed the last of the humans from their Kraang forms before teleporting them back home.
"That's it! That's all the humans!" Raph yelled.
"Sending the last set of coordinates, ours! Get us outta here, Rockwell!" Donna shouted.
"Confirmed." Rockwell nodded.
As Leo and Lee got knocked aside by Kraang Subprime and Valerie, the rest of the team dashed to their leaders and got teleported out of the Techodrome just when Kraang Subprime and Valerie can finish them off. Kraang Subprime was screaming in agony and Valerie's eyes widened wide in astonish as the the Techodrome was crashing to the nearby silver metallic island and exploded into nothing.
Back in New York, the citizens appeared all over the streets in flashes of light while all the Kraang droids transported back to their home dimension. The Turtles and the Lotus Ninjas suddenly appeared to land their feet on a building rooftop just in time to watch the city looking back to normal.
"Finally." Donnie said. "Everything is gonna go back to normal. Well, as normal as this city can get."
"You can say that again." Donna agreed.
"Yeah, but what about the Mighty Mutanimals?" Raph asked.
"And the Amazons?" Ella added.
"What about us?" Two familiar voices spoke.
The Turtles and the Lotus Ninjas turned around to see Leatherhead, Mala, Slash, Samara, Doctor Rockwell, Doctor Whitman, Pigeon Pete, and Amber on the same rooftop safe and sound behind them.
"We did it. Somehow, we did it!" Leo grinned.
"We can do anything as team." Lee grinned back.
"Because we're unbeatable!" Ellie cheered.
"And we're the best! Go, ninja! Go, ninjas, go!" Mikey whooped as he took off his Kraang hat.
The four masked turtles and the four mystic kunoichis looked over the city with relief as the humans celebrated their safety back to the city. Then, the Mighty Mutanimals and the Amazons appeared right behind the heroes. Mikey and Ellie gave Leatherhead and Mala big hugs while Donnie, Donna, Rockwell, and Whitman complimented one another of their plan working, leaving Leo, Lee, Raph, and Ella alone with Slash and Samara.
"Leatherhead! My big green buddy!" Mikey shouted ecstatically as he hugged his alligator mutant friend.
"Mala! You're alright!" Ellie shouted happily as she hugged her fox mutant friend.
"We made it, my friend." Leatherhead smiled as he hugged Mikey back.
"Yeah, safe and sound, Ellie." Mala grinned as she hugged Ellie back.
"Looks like our plan worked, Doctor." Donnie said to Rockwell.
"Yes, and teleporting the Kraang back to Dimension X was a stroke of genius." Rockwell agreed.
"About time?" Donna asked Whitman with a smirk.
"About time." Whitman giggled.
"You gotta admit, Leo." Raph said, putting his hand on his older brother and Slash's shoulders. "We couldn't have done this without Slash and his team."
"As well as Samara and her team." Ella added, moving next to Raph with a smile.
"I agree." Samara concurred.
"You did great, Slash." Leo said, holding out his hand towards Slash. "I'm sorry I doubted you. Everyone deserves a second chance."
"I just tried to model myself after the best leader I ever knew." Slash smiled as he took Leo's hand. "You."
After Leo and Slash shook heads, Leo pulled away and looked to Lee, who was giving him a smile.
"Looks like we saved the world." Lee said.
"Yeah, together." Leo smiled.
Lee's smile grew and she kissed Leo gently on the cheek. When she pulled away, she smiled at her mutant boyfriend with a wink.
"Turtles. Lotus. Amazons. Mutanimals." Leo said with a grin as he grabbed his girlfriend's waist close to him. "It's time to celebrate!"
"Booyakasha!" Everyone cheered victoriously.
This chapter took so long to create, but thank god I've finished it at last. Enjoy!
