Chapter Thirty Seven: The Enemy Among Us

Michelangelo hugged himself and fell onto his knees, screaming in agony. Pride screeched as he slowly turned to dust. Charmcaster watched fearfully as Wrath seemed to disintegrate in front of her, 'MICHEL?!'

Wrath's face was etched with pain but he forced a smile, 'C-Clair… G... Goodbye…'

The sorceress hugged her knight, 'No! Please, Michel! Don't leave me!'

'Take care… P-Princess… and thank you…'

Ben stared fearfully as green sparks fly from the Omnitrix, pulling the Sins toward Michelangelo. Each Sin seemed to turn to dust as they were forcefully sucked toward Michelangelo like a vortex pulling everything around it. Pride punched his clawed hands through the walls on either side of him but that didn't stop him from being pulled toward the Splixon. His unconscious captives were released from him as they were unaffected by the affects of the Omnitrix.

Tears streamed down the sorceress' check as the blond Sin slowly disappeared in front her. Her eyes widened when he whispered something softly to her ears. She smiled sadly and nodded her head, 'Me too.'

Everyone was blinded by a bright white light from Michelangelo as the Sins were merged with him. They were swept off their feet by a shockwave caused by the Omnitrix and everything went deathly silent.

'That was highly unexpected…' said Driscoll as he stared at the screen. The burst of white light had damaged the surveillance camera.

'Now what?' asked Sublimino uneasily.

'Your scientist is dead and her experiment is a failure,' said Animo.

Driscoll turned to them, 'No. Her experiment is not a failure… she had created the perfect human just as she promised.'

Animo frowned, 'Don't tell me you still want that kid!'

'It's suicide! H-he's highly unstable!'

'On the contrary my dear friends, he's the perfect weapon,' said the Forever King coolly.

'What happened?!' asked Bishop his voice rising.

Whitaker shook his head, 'I-I dunno!'

The agent slammed his hand on the metallic table, 'What do you mean you don't know?!'

The white haired scientist shuddered, 'Like I said, I don't know! Things just got out of our hand!'

A female scientist with short wavy hair rushed in, 'Sir!'

The dark haired agent turned to her, 'What is it now?'

'You'd better take a look at this. The boy's test result…'

Bishop took the folder from the woman and scanned the report. He raised a brow, 'Hmm, interesting…'

Whitaker stood up and peeked over his shoulder, 'What? What's interesting?'

'It seems that the antidote didn't actually neutralize his mutagen cells. In fact, it caused the cells to evolve.'

The white haired scientist scratched his head, 'So, that means?'

'It means the boy is the one I've been searching for. The perfect human…'

Raphael cracked an eye open. He turned to his side and looked around, 'Shell, what just happened?'

Ben groaned and sat up. He rubbed his head, 'Aww man…'

Cody coughed and pushed Casey's protective arm off his head, 'I-is everyone alright?'

'Yeah… I think so, what about you kiddo?' asked Casey as he helped the redhead up to his feet. Cody nodded his head and dusted his coat.

Charmcaster groaned and opened her eyes. Her vision was blurry at first but once it cleared she found herself staring at Michelangelo's still form, 'Michel?'

She slowly crawled toward him and stroked his pale cheek gently, 'Michel? Please… open your eyes!'

Raphael's head snapped to where the blond lay motionless, 'Mikey?!'

Splinter pushed himself off the floor and saw his youngest son lying unconscious. He was instantly on his feet, 'Michelangelo my son!'

Leonardo and Donatello groaned as they came to consciousness. They caught sight of Raphael and Charmcaster beside Michelangelo's motionless body. Their father approached the trio in a hurry before kneeling beside the blond. They instantly became alert of their surrounding, 'Mikey?!'

'Gwen! Grandpa!' cried Ben as he ran toward his cousin and grandfather. He skidded on his knees and stopped beside his redheaded cousin, 'Gwen?!'

Max opened his eyes and sat up with a groan, 'Ben?'

'Grandpa! What happened? Why won't Gwen open her eyes?!' asked the brunette fearfully. This cause the ex-Plumber to panic, he examined his granddaughter and tried to remember if she got a fatal hit when they fought Wrath and Pride. He remembered seeing her being knocked to the wall and fell unconscious. Max held her head with shaky hands, 'I-I think she had a slight c-concussion. Nothing to worry about Ben. She'll be fine.'

Ben gritted his teeth, 'She's not… she's not going to be in a coma is she?'

Max's face was grim, 'Let's hope not.'

'Michel, please! Please open your eyes!' said Charmcaster with tears trailing down her cheeks.

'What… what happened my son?' asked Splinter as he looked up at his red banded son. Raphael explained what he just witnessed minutes ago to the old rat with jumbled words and Splinter only understood little of what he said.

Donatello, somehow, was able to decipher what his brother had said and he checked the blond's pulse. A scowl graced his face, 'His heart is beating erratically! We have to do something or else his heart will get too stressed!'

'Then do something Donnie!' said Raphael.

The purple banded turtle looked around, 'Where's my bag?!'

'Wrath burnt it to crisp remember?' said Leonardo.

Donatello gritted his teeth and cursed. Charmcaster placed her hand on the unconscious blond's chest, 'Maybe… maybe I can do something…'

'What are you-' the Fearless Leader paused when the sorceress' hand glowed white. It glowed for a few seconds before fading. The sorceress sighed and smiled, 'I did it!'

The purple banded turtle felt for the blond's pulse and found it normal. He stared at her, 'B-but how? You didn't even use any spell!'

Splinter stared at the silver haired sorceress. Something about her seemed familiar. Charmcaster bit her bottom lip, 'I'm not sure how I did it but I remember my grandmother said that I am special… she said I can heal anything with my will.'

She turned to Splinter when he held her hand, 'You child, are a Healer, a rare kind of among sorcerers and sorceress.'

They turned to Michelangelo when they heard him moan. His eyes opened slowly and they were surprised to find his eyes were mismatched. His left eye was blue while his right eye was golden with a tinge of red surrounding the narrow pupil. The blond blinked and he grinned lopsidedly, 'Guys…'

'Mikey, how are you feeling?' asked Donatello trying not to sound surprised.

'I feel… like myself. What? Why are you guys staring at me like that?' asked the blond as he sat up. He winced at the sudden pain of his muscles. He looked around, 'W-where's Wrath?'

Raphael shared an uneasy look with Casey and Cody. The redheaded boy spoke, 'He… he's gone…'

Michelangelo's eyes widened, 'Gone?! What do you mean gone?!'

'The Omnitrix timed out. And for some unknown reason, the Sins were forcefully fused with you…'

'Like when the Omnitrix timed out and all the Dittos are forced to unite,' said Ben.

The blond stared at his hands, 'So… they're all back in me? B-but… how?'

'That's what we don't understand Mikey.'

'Grandpa, you think it has got something to do with the Splixon's DNA?'

Max shook his head, 'I don't know. Maybe.'

'Right now, we need to get out of here before the enemy found us,' said Leonardo as he helped Splinter up. Raphael helped his baby brother up while Donatello assisted the sorceress. The red banded turtle turned to Cody, 'By the way, I though Leo told ya guys to stay put at the lair.'

'It's the shrimp's idea to come here,' said Charmcaster.

'Hey!' Ben snapped at her.

Donatello had a confused look, 'How'd you get here so fast?'

'Oh, Charmcaster used her magic clay bird and a hyperspace spell to get us here,' said Cody.

'Hyperspace spell?' asked the purple banded turtle with a raised brow.

The sorceress rolled her eyes, 'It's a haste spell.'

While everyone else was chatting, Michelangelo remained quiet. He glared at the floor and a scowl graced his face. What's going to happen now? What's going to happen to me?

You're my prison. My puppet. My slave…

The blond's eyes widened and nobody heard him gasped, P-Pride?!

There was a chuckled ringing in his head, No… I am Wrath.

That's a lie!

No, I'm not lying… Well, I used to be known as Pride but I figured that being angry makes me more powerful. So why not renamed myself Wrath since he no longer exists?

What do you mean he no longer exists?!

The voice chuckled again and it's beginning to annoy the blond, I devoured him…

WHAT?!

So now, I have what he had. The link with you. The link which will enable me to take control over you!

Michelangelo stopped walking and his vision turned to darkness. He blinked and he was able to see again. Raphael stopped and turned to his brother, 'You okay bro?'

Michelangelo grinned, 'Yeah. Just a little worn out…'

The red banded turtle grinned, 'Don't worry bro, we'll be home pretty soon.'

The blond nodded and Raphael didn't notice his sly smirk, 'That… would be nice.'
