TMNT Labyrinth Crossover~
Leo and Donnie fell together. The blueness ended and they both fell into a junk yard. Junk everywhere, nothing else could be seen, all piles of garbage and junk hills. They landed on their shells, on a pile of trash. For a few seconds they both laid there, eyes closed; but then they opened and frowned at the surrounding area, and their situation. What were they doing?
"Huh . . ." Leo sat up and took in the junk that surrounded him, higher than he was stood up. Leo looked at his brother, then stood up but stumbled into a lone pile of junk to steady himself.
From out of the lone pile of junk came a creature about the size of a small dog, and lizard like.
"Hey, watch where you're going!" It snapped at Leo. It was blue in skin color, and had a long, dragon-like snout.
"Sorry . . ." Leo said quietly and distantly, not even looking at the creature.
Donnie climbed to his feet and looked around as well, frowning.
"Where were you going?" The lizard asked sharply.
Leo thought for a second, and then turned to Donnie. "I don't . . . remember . . ."
"Um! No wonder you can't LOOK where you're going, if you don't KNOW where you're going!"
Leo and Donnie began to walk slowly away, but the lizard followed like an annoying dog.
"What are you doing around here?" It kept asking.
Donnie frowned. "What . . . were we doing?" He shook his head, nonplussed. "I don't know . . ."
"Um! I know what you were looking for," said the lizard in a different tone. "Just follow me, and I'll show you."
Both turtles looked at each other, and then followed the lizard to a very large junk mountain. The creature stopped outside and opened a very well concealed door made of junk.
"In here," it said in a low voice, watching them.
Donnie followed Leo in, and found himself back in the lair. They both frowned and turned around on one spot, checking out the place.
"It was all a dream," Leo suddenly muttered to himself. He sat down on the couch and flopped back, eyes closed. "All a dream," he muttered again.
Donnie didn't move. Something was funny about this. Something was missing as well. He looked at Splinter's chair. It was empty, except for two remote batteries. Batteries . . .? Something told Donnie that there was meant to be garbage on the chair. Why? And whose rubbish? He walked over and picked up the batteries.
Leo had got off the couch and went to see what Donnie was looking at. He saw the batteries and frowned at Donnie. Something about the batteries seemed important.
Suddenly the lizard creature appeared next to them.
"This is what you was looking for, wasn't it?" It asked, smiling somewhat evilly.
"Yes . . ." Leo said, only answering because he couldn't think of anything else they would want to look for.
The lizard started to walk around the place, telling them about the lovely stuff they had here, and this is all they would ever need.
Donnie was still frowning at the batteries, and knew they meant something for his confusion.
Leo slowly took one of them from Donnie, and held it. As soon as it touched him, he gasped, closed his eyes and had a flashback memory of two other laughing turtles . . .
"From the remote . . . because of the noise they were making," Leo muttered to himself.
Donnie listened, knowing his brother had just seen something.
"Oh my God . . . Raph! Mikey! We have to save them!" Leo suddenly cried.
That was it! That was the key to all this confusion! Their brothers! They had forgotten all about them, but not any more.
Donnie and Leo both spun around as the wall behind them stared to crumble. The little lizard had disappeared.
The whole lair was crumbling now, but it no longer looked like the lair. It turned to junk and old garbage. The wall that had fallen first now had a big enough hole in it for Leo and Donnie to climb through. They did so, and heard the sound of loud growls and a voice. Soon they had climbed out and straight in front was Drelic and Didymus, along with Ambrosious.
"Drelic . . . Didymus . . ." Leo said as Drelic helped him climb out, and then turned to help Donnie.
"Look, Sir Leo," Didymus said, turning to direct their gaze over his shoulder. "Those are the gates to the Demon city. Not far now!"
"Good, we haven't got much time, let's move," Leo said, too desperate now to lose any more precious minutes.
As they walked quickly away from the junkyard, they didn't notice Koppel, sitting among the junk, and feeling shameful and guilty. He muttered to himself, "What have a done? I've lost my only friends . . . They'll never forgive me now . . ."
They set off down the hill for the city gates, which lead into the city, in which the Castle stood, not far.
As they got closer, they saw two guards sitting, snoozing, on either side of the gates.
"Open the door!" Didymus called to the guards. They didn't move.
"Didymus, we have to be quiet," Leo hissed.
But the fox didn't listen. "Open up! Open up at once! I shall fight you all!"
Donnie grabbed the fox and pulled him against the wall.
"Shh! You have to be quiet!" He said.
As he said that, the doors swung open. They all looked at each other, Drelic growled uncertainly.
Leo led the way in, followed by Donnie and Didymus, including Ambrosious, and then Drelic. They walked into a large circle of sandy walls, and at the far end was the entrance to the actually city sandy buildings. But before they could get further than half way across, a gigantic armour covered being steeped in front of their path, holding a giant axe.
"Erm, this guy don't look too friendly," Donnie said, stopping dead along with the others.
The armored knight started to walk slowly towards them; it was huge.
"WHO GOES?" It thundered.
"Should we answer?" Leo joked. But his smiled was wiped as the knight took a swing at their heads with the axe. One advantage they had was size. While it was big and slow, they were smaller and quick.
"WHO GOES?" It bellowed again.
They all dashed around the axe again, but Drelic was unlucky and was caught on the wing. He howled in pain and delivered his own blow by fire. It had no effect, and Drelic was forced to duck again.
They couldn't get past the knight. For one it wouldn't let them, and also a pair of strong, metal doors had swung closed behind it. They were trapped in the circle of sandy walls.
Suddenly, a little, but brave voice floated over the noise of the knight. They all looked up to see Koppel running along the wall from the left.
"Koppel?" Leo frowned, amazed the coward was here. Maybe he was only here to collect some bounty or something.
But the little bat creature ran along the wall to the knight's head, and jumped! He landed on the domed head and started to pull at something out of their view. A few seconds later, the noise of live electricity sizzled and Koppel pulled up a handful of wires. The knight dropped dead immediately, but bangs and smoke appeared at the head, and an explosion made Koppel fall to the floor and land painfully on his stomach.
"Koppel!" Donnie shouted, and rushed over with Leo and Drelic in tow.
Koppel sat up disoriented, and shook his head.
"I don't care what you think or what you'll say, I'm a coward, and Navaura made me give you those Yiri fruit . . ." Koppel said, sounding very shameful.
"You just saved us, so I think it's safe to say . . . you're forgiven," Leo smiled.
Koppel looked up and smiled back.
"What courage, Sir Koppel," Didymus said, riding over to them on Ambrosious. "Rarely have I seen it!"
Koppel looked amazed. Then stood up.
"Well, what are we waiting for," he said excitedly. "Let's go get that Demoness who calls herself Queen!"
"Right!" Donnie said with a matching smile.
They all grinned at him and stood up. Then, walking past the limp and smoking knight, to the doors behind. There seemed to have unlocked as soon as the knight had been dissembled. They walked into the Demon city, where the buildings were sandy and the streets were quiet.
"Um, nice place . ." Donnie said, then smiled to show he was joking when Leo turned and frowned at him.
"C'mon, let's be careful . . . I don't like this . . ." Leo said, glancing about the sandy streets.

"Your Majesty!"
A Little black demon, with a officer hat ran into her throne room, standing perfectly still as he reached her.
"Your Majesty! The turtle brothers! The turtles who ate the Yiri and forgot everything -!"
"What of them?" Navaura asked lazily. She was sat back in her throne chair, playing with her fingernails.
"They've reached the city along with the bat, Sir Didymus and the dragon!"
Navaura only smiled slyly and clawed the air with her fingers, as though running her fingers down an imaginary wall.
"Good . . . Time to play . . ."

The castle gates grew nearer as the two turtles, Drelic, Koppel, Didymus and Ambrosious ran through the city.
"Nearly there!" Leo said over his shoulder.
Just as they came up to the gates, a few guards, weapon less, stepped in front of the open gates.
"Stop!" They said.
Leo growled. He had no time for this now. He pulled his Katana from the holds on his back and held it, point first, to the guards, who all looked at it and scattered.
Now their way to the castle was clear, and they charged towards it faster than they had trotted there.
"The castle . . ." Donnie awed. It was big and very impressive looking. What frightened him was that if it was so big, would they be able to find their brothers in time?
The group ran through the castle entrance, past the large, open doors, and took a right in the corridor that met them. They ran up a set of small stairs, then into another corridor with a lovely view of the city. But they had no time to stand and look, and dashed into the room at the end.
This room had to be where Navaura spent most of her time. There was a throne chair at the very end of the room, and in the middle was a hole in the floor, only about a foot deep, but big enough for Drelic to lay down in.
"They must be up there," Leo said, pointing to a spiraling staircase to the left in the room.
"How do you know?" Koppel asked.
" I know . . ." Leo replied, then his heart nearly stopped as his eyes fell on the clock above the throne chair. The small hand was almost to the top, on the point thirteen, and the big hand was only seven minutes away from it.
Donnie noticed it and looked at Leo, fear in his eyes. How would he take it if they lost? Leo thought as he looked into his brother's eyes. They both made towards the spiral staircase leading up; but stopped when Drelic, Koppel and Didymus (with his dog) followed.
"No guys, we have to do this on our own . . ." Leo said, desperately.
"Are you sure?" Koppel asked, now a lot braver since he had friends.
"Yes . . . Thank you, guys, you've been great friends, and a great help . . ." Donnie said, almost sadly.
" . . . Okay, but if you should need us . . ." Didymus said softly.
"Yes, if you should need us . . ." Koppel said.
Leo and Donnie smiled appreciatively, and nodded to show that they understood.
Drelic growled softly, and the turtles turned and ran up the stairs, where they could feel Navaura waiting for them at the top . . .
Leo and Donnie fell together. The blueness ended and they both fell into a junk yard. Junk everywhere, nothing else could be seen, all piles of garbage and junk hills.
