The Big Brawl final part
After becoming the new champions to the Nexus tournament, Leo and the others checked in on Sly, as he was recovering from his unfortunate reunion and match against Phantom. Fortunately, the almost fatal of the wounds were healed and his minor wounds would heal in just a few hours.
When everyone got to the healing chamber, Neyla and Scar sat beside him as the assassin lovers, Solinter, the turtles and their human friends carefully hugged their friend when Angel spoke to him. "Sly, we're so glad you're okay. That guy you fought with nearly killed you."
"It's alright, Angel. My wounds have been healed." Sly said as he embraced the teenaged girl.
"Sly, who was that guy? He's obviously a Yautja, but not like Scar. And when he talked, he said he knew you both, which means that you encountered him before." Leo asked his friend, wanting to know who that Yautja was and how he knew his 2 Yautja friends.
"I... don't like to talk about that part of my past. It's...too shameful to tell anyone of you." Sly said as he bowed his head in shame, remembering what he'd promised himself after that dreadful day many years ago.
"Sly, I know that you do not like to talk about your past, but unless you tell it to the people you trust, you will never be able to fix yourself of the shame that still holds power over you and that is no way for a true warrior to live. We can help you overcome the shame, my friend, but it is important that you be open with us." Splinter said wisely to his friend, like a father would speak to his child.
After seeing the others nod in agreement with Splinter, Sly, knowing that his Sensei was right, and feeling that his friends and family deserved to know about Phantom and his history with him and Scar, began to explain how he and Scar knew the dishonorable Hunter. "This won't be easy for me to explain, but I think it's time for all of you to know who that abomination is and how he knows me and Scar, especially you, Neyla." He said as he took his girlfriend's hand and began to tell everyone a story from his past.
Flashback many years ago
During his early years after being accepted into the Yautja Clan and completing his training. After he had learned and adjusted to killing for honor/sport and killing a Xenomorph Queen...Scarface and the Yautja Elder thought it would be time for Sly to hone his skills on the Game Reserve Planet. They informed Sly that he could take only two of their fellow Hunters/Warriors for his hunting party and Sly chose Scar and another Yautja he had become close with named Tusk.
Once Sly and his team had arrived on the Game Reserve Planet, they agreed to split up to search for worthy game and trophies and to rendezvous at their campsite before sundown. However, unknown to Scar, Sly and Tusk...they were being watched by a shadowy figure taking cover in the background.
The mysterious figure snarled angrily before saying to himself. "Hmm, three untested runts from the rival clan. This should be a truly amusing slaughter, especially that rodent." The being said before he activated his own cloaking device and headed off, attempting to ambush either Sly, Tusk or Scar.
1 hour later
After they had separated, Sly went deeper into the jungle using his mask to scan for worthy game and checking his surroundings for any dangers...as he heard tales of how his adopted race had a fierce rivalry with the Super Yautja Clan. He'd remember Scarface and the Elder tell tales of how the Super Yautja were coldblooded and soulless murderers; whom had rejected their code of honor as meaningless 'red tape' and had no sense of boundaries; they'd kill anyone or anything that crossed their path, even if their prey were sick, weakened or wounded. Sly had never once encountered or faced a Super Yautja before and if by some chance he did on this hunt...it would take everything he had learnt to survive.
While he was still searching for game, his mask alerted him that an enemy was nearby...and he instinctively avoided an energy blast from a plasma caster! Sly then asked. "What the...?" Before he saw 3 multiple Plasma caster blasts head his way and he ran while avoiding the blasts! While he was taking cover, he heard cold and dark laughter from the surrounding area...which sent chills running up his spine. Sly asked, while trying to keep it together. "Who's out there?! Show yourself!" But the only response he got were 5 more blasts that he struggled to avoid due to the terrain he was navigating!
Meanwhile
While Scar and Tusk were out hunting on their own, their masks suddenly detected the Plasma caster blasts and they heard the explosions. Knowing that neither of them were under attack, their eyes widened as they knew who was being stalked and hunted. Scar would whisper in shock, "Sly." Before the pure blooded Yautja had taken off running to his brother's aid, as he knew that it was a Super Yautja attempting to kill his adopted sibling. Scar then informed Tusk through his mask. "Tusk, Sly's under attack! I'm tracking his last known coordinates."
The fellow clan member then stated with concern for his adopted brother before heading to his location. "I'm on the way Scar. I'll meet you at our brother's last known location!"
Back with Sly
Sly demanded, as he had grown tired of running and hiding. "Show yourself! Face me as a warrior, you coward!"
The mysterious being then whispered right behind him. "Ask and you shall receive...rodent."
The raccoon hunter gasped before turning around and being greeted by a powerful fist! Before he could get up, the raccoon hunter groaned as the Super Predator landed a powerful kick to his lower stomach. As he attempted to stand up, Sly was met with another powerful punch, followed by another kick and another punch! The Super Predator smiled, as he was enjoying torturing and playing with the inexperienced raccoon hunter. Sly had attempted to crawl away...but didn't get far, as the Super Predator had grabbed his left ankle and swiftly pulled him back! And the next thing Sly had seen and felt...was being forcefully pulled up onto his own wobbly legs and greeted by a powerful headbutt that dented the front of his mask!
The raccoon hunter had groaned and whimpered in pain, as he stumbled backwards against the trunk of a strong tree before the Super Predator stated, as he smiled after seeing and hearing how broken and frightened Sly was before him. "That's right vermin...be afraid. Let your terror overcome you." The Super Predator continued landing powerful blows down upon the defenseless and weakened raccoon hunter, who attempted to stay strong long enough for either Scar or Tusk to help him. The last punch he handed was so powerful, that it knocked Sly's mask off as his mouth was covered in blood after coughing and spitting a small amount onto the jungle floor.
Sly pleaded while gasping and coughing weakly. "Please...stop."
The Super Predator sneered and replied darkly. "No vermin...I won't stop. Not now, not ever...Not until your beloved adopted clan is dead."
The raccoon hunter then asked weakly. "Wha...Who are you?"
The Super Predator smiled evilly and answered before showing his face. "My name is Black...remember it, as my name and face are going to be the last things you'll hear and see!"
But before Black could finish the job, he heard an angry roar echo out and two Plasma caster shots had struck him dead on the chest and sent him back a few feet! Sly stated while turning to who had come to his rescue. "Scar, Tusk."
Sly's fellow clan members and brothers had arrived just in time as Scar roared out and stepped in to protect his brother. "Get away from him!"
Black recovered from the two Plasma caster blasts and laughed maniacally before charging in to face off against Scar and Tusk. Sly slowly recovered from his brutal near to death beating, while watching Scar and Tusk easily keep up and land blows just as powerful as Black's on the honorless Super Yautja! But just as the battle appeared to be turning to their favor, Black had managed to overpower both Tusk and Scar. He had picked up Tusk, lifting him over his head and tossing him against the trunk of a rotted out tree! Black had then grabbed Scar by his throat and attempted to strangle him to death with his own two hands! Sly looked on with horror, after realizing what horrible monsters the Super Predators truly were...but his fear swiftly faded, and was replaced by anger after seeing the crazed smile on Black's face as he attempted to strangle his brother!
The raccoon hunter then shouted out. "No! I lost my own family to monsters like you! I won't let you take away my brother!" Before he gathered up his new strength and power and charged in; punching Black right in his face. The power from the punch was so strong, that it caused him to release his hold on Scar! After Scar was freed, Sly had continued his attack; landing a number of powerful punches before taking out his wrist blades and impaling the blades right above Black's left brow down across his eye and left side of his face! The Super Predator had roared out in great pain, as blood had spilled out from the long bleeding scar over his face!
Before he could even counter, Tusk and Scar had rejoined the fray! Sly asked as he had armed his plasma caster. "Your's and Tusk's plasma casters armed and ready, Scar?"
Sly's adopted brother stated. "Indeed brother."
Tusk replied as well. "Armed and ready to fire."
Sly then stated. "Together now!" Before the three of them had fired their plasma casters at the same time and Black would shouted out.
"We'll meet again, vermin! One day I will return and I'll savor every second of your agony before ending your life!"
After Black had been blasted away, Sly collapsed from his wounds in great pain and both Scar and Tusk had called for their pods to take him back to their ship and after they got Sly into a healing chamber, they headed back to Yautja Prime and told Scarface and the Elder everything that happened on the planet. And after that day, Sly promised himself that he would not tell anyone about the encounter with Black besides to those close to him when he felt they were ready to know.
Flashback end
After Sly finished revealing to Neyla and the others his and Scar's history with Phantom...the Turtles, their human friends, Xeron and Nebula stared shocked/horrified while listening and learning what sort of monster Phantom was when he and Sly first met on the Game Reserve Planet: as he dishonorably attacked their friend and savagely brutalized him while he was overwhelmed by fear that he couldn't fight back until Scar and Tusk came to his rescue.
Neyla asked softly, as her boyfriend and adopted brother never told her that story before, even after she had decided to leave their Earth and become a hunter. "Why...Why didn't you or Scar ever tell me about that day, Sly?"
The raccoon Hunter answered simply. "Because Neyla...I was ashamed of myself that day. I...I went back to being that helpless little boy who witnessed his parents being murdered by the Fiendish Five until Scarface found and rescued me."
Master Splinter stated while sympathizing with the Raccoon Hunter. "Sly...it is natural for all warriors to become overwhelmed by fear. But you were able to overcome your fear and turn the tables on Phantom, with Scar's and your fellow warrior's help."
Leo and the others nodded in agreement with their mentor/father...while glaring hatefully towards Phantom, as he dishonorably attacked Sly when he was separated from Scar and Tusk and more importantly...when he was still an inexperienced Hunter. "And besides Sly, you're not that helpless little boy anymore, you're far stronger than you were back then and 1 of the greatest warriors/hunters in the universe. Sylvia said as she caressed her raccoon friend's cheek.
"And besides that, you have Scar, Neyla and all of us now. I know you were strong before you met Neyla, but now you're stronger than ever now that you have her and the rest of us beside you now." Leo added with a smile as he patted his friend on the shoulder.
"Yeah Sly, now that you got us, you're 1 tough dude and 1 of our best friends." Mikey added with his usual grin.
"And you gotta remember that you're family now, Sly. Scarface would tell you the same thing." Donnie added, knowing the elderly Yautja would tell his adopted son the same thing they were. This, along with all the kind words that they were giving him, made him smile, as he knew they were right.
Nebula asked as she and Xeron were curious about the other Yautja that was there with Scar and Sly. "By the way Scar...whatever happened to the other Yautja that was with you and Sly that day on the Game Reserve Planet?"
Scar answered. "Tusk? He is back on our home world, waiting for our return."
That was when the Turtles and Anti-Heroes had suddenly heard screaming from outside the medical bay, much to their surprise as Xeron asked. "What the hell was..."
That was when the Gyoji had teleported before them and Splinter stood up before speaking. "Gyoji, what is happening outside?"
The referee answered quickly. "The Nexus is under attack...by assailants I'm afraid you might be all too familiar with, Splinter: Shadow Ninjas."
After hearing the name of the mystery attackers, Splinter's eyes widened in shock while his hands were tightening around his walking staff. "He's here."
Raph asked as he and his brothers were surprised by their father's reaction and saying 'he was here', "Who, Master Splinter? Who's here?"
Their master/father answered, which surprised them all. "Drako."
Nebula and the others stared surprised after hearing the name of the alien dragon who attempted to kill their master after he became the previous Nexus champion. "That alien dragon who tried to kill you years ago?"
"Yes, my daughter, and it seems he is up to his old ways." Splinter answered his newly adopted daughter.
Mikey stated plainly. "You wanted the chance to fight Drako, Nebs. Looks like today is your lucky day."
The blue skinned former Assassin stated as she agreed with the orange masked turtle. "You're damn right about that, Mikey."
"Yes. Today that monster dies for all he's done!" Xeron said, agreeing with her lover. "Angel. Sylvia, go find Casey, April and Lonae and stay with them until this is over." She told her students and little sisters, who nodded and hugged Xeron and Nebula before doing what they were told.
After leaving the medical bay, the Turtles and Anti-Heroes would rush outside to deal with the Shadow Ninjas and were equally matched, even though the Hunters eventually ended the ninjas with their Plasma casters. Once the Shadow Ninjas were defeated, Gyoji informed the Turtles and Anti-Heroes that Drako was seen heading towards the Daimyo's throne room...but he wasn't alone, he was with the Daimyo's son: the Ultimate Ninja! Splinter was shocked upon hearing that news...while the Turtles and Anti-Heroes were disgusted beyond words: as the Daimyo's own son was assisting Drako in taking over the Nexus before they headed for the throne room.
After they arrived at the throne room, Splinter shouted out after seeing the honorless dragon he defeated in combat years ago. "Drako!"
The alien dragon smirked evilly and stated while turning around to face the 1 who humiliated him years ago., "Well, well, well...if it isn't my old 'friend', Splinter. How's the leg?"
Leo stated as he and his brothers drew out their weapons. "So you're the coward who tried to kill our master all those years ago."
Drako stated while crossing his arms. "Ha! You walking Turtles are not worth my time. And while you Anti-Heros would provide me with a decent challenge, your master and I have a score to settle. I made him a promise after my humiliating defeat and I intend to keep it!"
Raph stated while glaring at the evil alien dragon. "You'll have to get through us first Dragon Breath!"
Drako countered plain and simple before snapping his claws. "I don't have to. Shadow Ninjas!" Before more ninjas had appeared before them, ready for battle...alongside his ally and partner, the Ultimate Ninja!
After they made short work of the Shadow Ninjas, Scar stated while he, Sly and Neyla aimed their plasma casters at Drako and Ultimate Ninja. "It's all over Drako!"
"Today you die for all you've done!" Nebula said with anger at the 1 who tried to kill her true father.
The alien dragon laughed and countered, "Ha, that's what you think Yautja scum and daughter of Thanos! This battle is far from over!"
The Ultimate Ninja would state after his partner and ally while smirking under his mask while he drew his swords. "Drako and I had the good fortune of cutting a deal with someone...that despises you and your brother a lot."
Scar's and Sly's widened in shock, along with their friends as they heard an all too familiar and hated evil cackling laugh behind them and swiftly turned around...which was when Phantom had showed himself! The Super Yautja stated sarcastically. "Thought you could defeat me that easily, vermin? Well, I'm afraid not! We still have a score to settle!"
Sly glared angrily at the sight of his arch rival/enemy and stated to the Turtles and Assassin lovers. "Leo: you, Raph, Donny and Mikey take Ultimate Ninja. Nebula, you, Xeron and master Splinter take Drako. Scar, Neyla and I will handle Phantom!"
After agreeing with their assigned opponents, Leo and his brothers faced Ultimate Ninja while Xeron, Nebula and Splinter were fighting Drako while the Hunters were battling Phantom. The battle between the Turtles and Anti-Heroes against Drako, Ultimate Ninja and Phantom was incredibly brutal...as the Ultimate Ninja was a fierce and ruthless warrior, using his swords, class and every weapon he had against the turtles but by working together, they were able to subdue the disgrace of a ninja.
Drako was the same way, as he was using his skills and body as a weapon, including his whip-like tail, which the Assassin lovers and the wise rat ninja had to be careful to avoid. Nebula and Xeron followed Splinter's advice, as he knew all of Drako's weak spots, which they hit hard after getting every opening they could. And in the end, the evil alien dragon was defeated and knocked out.
Phantom had badly injured Sly after dispatching Neyla and Scar: smashing him against a brick wall and impaling his wrist blade right where he stabbed him before when they faced each other in the ring, before Scar and Neyla fired their plasma casters at the same time and Sly had knocked the evil Super Yautja out again: this time landing a powerful roundhouse kick to the his head!
After Drako, Ultimate Ninja and Phantom were defeated, the Daimyo appeared and decided that for this treacherous act, both Drako and, reluctantly, his own son were to be banished to another dimension, along with Phantom...before the dishonorable Yautja made a dreadful promise to Sly: that he would find him wherever he went and before he killed him, he would kill the 2 people he loved the most: Scar and Neyla before being sent to another Galaxy.
Hours later, the Daimyo had sent his old friend, along with his sons and daughters and their human friends back home to Earth in the lair, where they could have a celebration and rest after everything they'd been through.
But unknown to them, a familiar enemy of the Anti-Heros was on its way to Earth for revenge, having already entered Earth's solar system. "Prime leader, we've tracked the location of the 4 Anti-Heros' temporary home. It is the 3rd planet from the sun." The voice of Triceraton commander Mozar informed his leader.
"Excellent. Now that I've found them, I can finally have my revenge for all they did to me... and reclaim the Fugatiod as well. But if the Anti-Heros don't have it and they don't turn themselves over to me, it'll be the end of their backwater planet and everyone on it! Hahahahaha. Hahahahaha!" Prime leader Zanramon said with an evil laugh, thinking he'd finally get revenge on the 4 beings who had 'wrong' him.
Meanwhile at the other side of the universe
When Phantom woke up, he found himself on an asteroid and who shocked at who was standing on it: Thanos, the Mad Titan himself. Before he could do anything, the purple skinned being knocked him out before heading to his personal lab, where he would force this Super Yautja to get revenge on Nebula and everyone she loved, as his newest 'child'.
There you go, my friends, the Battle Nexus is finally complete. Next is the Space Invaders episodes. Rate and review. See you soon, my friends.
