(Manhattan, NY – Flashback moment)
Mikey; along with his bros and sis have found themselves surround by black ninjas that attacked them on the very first night that they venture up to the surface. But good thing this here is flashback moment.
The orange turtle himself decided to take charge in keeping update of what has happen to his family for the past week.
"A very wise frog once said, "It's not easy being green," but believe me, he didn't know the half of it."
The family of ninjas are now battle these robots; called Mousers for the first time in their home which caused it to have a cave-in and be separated from their rat master.
In the past week, my brothers, sister and I have been attacked by killer robots, had our home caved in on us, and had a serious butt-kicking ninja battle with some deadly ninja assassins."
The teens find themselves attacked by another group of ninjas. They tried their best to fight them but they were quickly outnumber so the teens decided to jump into the van before they got hammered by their new opponents.
"We made a shell raising escape in an armoured car, found a new place to live..."
"This is beyond awesome!" Mikey exclaimed as he and his siblings walked into their new home.
"...and were attacked by even more killer robots."
The scene is now fast forward into the sewers where they encounter and battle another group of Mousers. But nothing can hold these ninjas down. We now see April screaming for her life as the robots was destroyed by her saviours.
"Oh, and we also managed to perform our very first ninja rescue. This is the closest any of us have ever been to another human being,"
The orange turtle leans forward into the light. "Hey! How ya doin'?" he innocently asked the young women. But that innocent question caused her to faint. He walked up to her and picked her up in a bridal style and he turned to his siblings.
"And it raises one very big question:"
"Can we keep her?"
(In the Lair, Manhattan NY – 10:05am)
Hours have passed since the Turtles and Sally got back to their new Lair but to bring back to home something that they would have ever experience: A human being.
The mutants were pretty much used to human being for years whom turns out to be their sister. But the young kunoichi was absolutely the most stunned out of her entire family. Despite being the only human here, this was actually the first time she has ever encounter another human being. Sally just hopes that the two of them would become friends but she doesn't think she would become friends with her mutant brothers right away. Other than that, she was the same human being that they saw on the news with that Baxter Stockman guy. They have also told their father about what happen. The rat wasn't too pleased about his children's wilful personalities and did warn his children about interacting with other human beings other than Sally. But since the young women has seen enough, he will allow this.
The young women was sleeping peaceful on the couch like nothing bad has happen to her in the past as the teenage ninjas are circled around her; waiting for her to wake up. A few minutes have gone past but they didn't have to wait any longer as the human starts to wake up. She opens her eyes as she rise from her sleepy state.
"Oh man, what a dream. Turtles fighting robots...did I fall asleep watching TV again? That was the weirdest. Thing. I've. Ever. SEEN!" She looks up to see that she is not dreaming at all. She pans over to see four, giant turtles all standing looking at her. Leo and Don are looking at her, Raph was in the background with his arms crossed over and ends with Mikey who was winking at her while doing a clicking noise as well. The young lady starts to panic as she looks around. Other than that, she doesn't have a clue of where she is. One minute she in the sewers and next thing she know, she is in what seem to be a cavern with modern day furniture. Since she was the only human around here until now, Sally decided to approach the young women first; hopefully to calm her down and explain everything to her in detail. She kneels down to her head level.
"Hi." She said as she waves to the very first human that she has meet in her entire life.
One good look of the kid and the young women lets out a sign; relieved to see another human in her presence so looks like she has a good reason not to panic.
"Oh! Hello there. Um…could you tell me where am—" But she didn't have time to asked a question when the jolly turtle came forward; thought he can give it go.
"Hi!" said Mikey. Ok, now she can panic.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" she screamed.
"AHHHHHHHHHH!" Mikey squeal out a girlish scream as Sally cover her ears since she wasn't very lucky to standing next to her and glares at her youngest brother as she was about to strangle him for butting in. But to be honest, Sally was trying to hold in her giggles and thinks that was the funniest thing she has ever seen. Man, she wish had video camera with her. Mikey jumps back a bit and take a second to get his breath back.
"Please don't do that, I almost jumped outa my shell!" he begged as he hold out his hands in defence. The young women couldn't help but looks at his hand with terror.
"It. Has. THREE. FINGERS!" She panicky pointed out in one shaky breath. She then grabs the pillow that she was sleeping on and pulled it over her head which also covers her eyes.
"I'm asleep! I'm asleep! I'm asleep! I'm asleep!" she mumbles to herself. So much for a first impression.
"This isn't going very well." Don replied to his siblings
"Aww, and I thought we got the whole "Talking to Humans" thing figured out with Sal here." Mikey complained as he pointed to the young kunoichi who was still kneeling.
She decided to approach the young women again but this time without the help from her little brother. "Are you okay?" asked Sally still in her kneeling position. April removes the pillow from her eyes and puts it beside her as she sees the same human girl who was in front of her; smile innocently.
"You're not a turtle, right?" The young women asked. Sally simply shakes her head which only to be grabbed by the shoulder by the young women as Sally lets out a yelp. "Thank goodness! You have got to help me! Please, tell me this: Who are they and are we both dreaming?" April asked. "One: these guys are my family." She points to the mutants behind her. "And two: this isn't a dream, sister." Sally answered.
The young women's eye went wide when she realised she isn't dreaming. She quickly grabbed her pillow and covers her eyes again. "I am SO asleep!" the young women resume her mumbling to herself again.
Disappointed, Sally could only bow her head. "Oh, brother…" She looks up to her siblings with a distress expression on her face. "So much for making friends." And just when she was going to have her very first human friend.
A second later, Mikey shakes his head and lets out a big yawn and making his a bit drowsy thanks to the young women who is still muttering to herself. "Man, she's making me sleepy."
Raph decide to take a crack at it since he is pretty curious about the human. Maybe it had something to do with the Mousers. "Hey you." he asked tapping her on the shoulder. The young women carefully removed her pillow from her eyes and looks over to her left where she sees the red bandana turtle that was in the background.
"What?" April carefully asked.
"What do you know about those Mouser robot things?" Raph question in what seems to be a calm tone. For some reason to her they must have known about the robots and since he was asking questions about the robots attacking, she guesses it wouldn't hurt to answer a few questions for the turtles. She carefully put her pillow down on her lap as she begins to explain.
"Well, first I thought they were for cleaning up the city's rat problem, but then I got suspicious when said—" April suddenly realized. "Oh no! I'm talking to it."
"What?" Leo asked.
"I'm talking to it. To you!" She then starts to talk to herself. "Okay April, you're talking to a giant three-finger turtle and also a human who says they're her family. The only logical explanation is you're dreaming. So, everything's ok." She then looks up to Leo as she to speak to him like everything was a dream.
"Hello." She waves to Leo as he raises an eyebrow in confusion. Leo and Sally looks at each other. Sally simply shrugs and gestures him to give it a go. He then turns back to their guest who was on the couch. "Hello April, how are you doing?" He uncertainly asked her.
"Oh, I'm fine. Everything is absolutely GREAT!" She replied. As she continues to think this was all a dream, she quickly gets a shock when she sees a giant rat approaching her. "Then perhaps you are ready to answer some questions?" he asked. Ok, first the turtles and now, a rat! Can this day get any weirder for April?
"You're…you're a..." And for the second time this week, she fainted.
Sally could only slap herself on her head. "Oh great, first Mikey and now Sensei."
"You sure have a way with the ladies, Master Splinter." Donny joked. Leo could only slap himself in the head. Just when she was getting used to four turtles in the room, their rat father just happens to show up. With their guest knock out, what are going to do now? As each member comes up with a solution, Mikey decided to go and listen to music as he approaches his MP3 player that was on a nearby table.
"Now, what do we do?" Don asked.
"Let's nudge her." Leo suggested. Sally shooks her head in disagreement.
"I'll snap her out of it." Raph replied. Sally doesn't think that's a good idea either.
"Raphael, No!" Splinter advised.
"How about this: When she wakes up, let me do the talking. She was fine when she was talking to me." Sally suggested.
Mikey sits in his banana lounge and lets out a groan. "Somebody gets me when she wakes up." Mikey reminded his family. He put headphones on and begins to listen to some music which he nods his head to it.
Something tells the family that this is going to be one long day…
(Manhattan NY – 10:07am)
…and a long day indeed because were started to get chaotic on the surface. It was a normal day at the national bank where people are just coming and going as they deposit their money in their accounts. All of their belongings are stored in a large vault where it is shut tight with a secure electronic lock. Just when one of the customers was making a deposit when they were startle by a tremor which it is followed another one and lot more.
It sounded like…huge footsteps. And it was all coming from inside the vault.
Everyone in the building was terrified by this event. "W-what is that?!" cried out one of the customers. But they didn't want to find out who was behind it so they ran for their lives. A portion of the floor inside the vault started to crumble and then exploded. Debris and dust went everywhere. As the dust begins to settle,
The manager was sitting at his desk when the calamity happened. He rise out of his seat as he views the security cameras to get a better view of the scene. He couldn't believe what he was seeing in there. "What in the world?" The manager asked to himself as he scratches in head in confusion as he ignores the screams in the background because he was too focused on the screen. He continues to look at the footage, but the first two were a no-show since it doesn't show the robbers in the thick fog but thankfully, he got a good visual on the third one. But unfortunately, the robber chomps down on it. He has already contact the police who were on their way. Inside the vault, the army of Mousers were still helping themselves as they take out all the money, jewels, rings; anything that is worth keeping in a bank…
(Underneath Stocktronics, Manhattan, NY – 10:08am)
…and the man behind the robbery was watching his Mousers through the security cameras that he hack into to view his success.
"These security measures are pitiful; an insult. Nothing can stand in the way of my outstanding genius." Stockman gloats on his accomplishment as he continues to control the Mousers whom carry on their stealing spree.
(Manhattan NY – 10:08am)
Chaotic was still befalling at the bank but thankfully, the Police have arrived. Both Officer Frank and Officer Laird both got out of their car. As they approach the front door, a number of customers were screaming their lungs out as they escape out through revolving door.
After the customers have left in terror, the two officer then enter through the revolving door as the manager quickly approaches them and points to the direction of the scene of the crime. "This way, please! Something happening in the vault!" he told them. They quickly race over to the vault where the manager presses in the code on the electronic lock.
But as soon as they opened the vault door, the robbers…were gone. All the money has been taken. All the jewellery has been swiped. Everything…was gone.
All they left are a giant hole and footprints…
(In the Lair, Manhattan NY – 5:30pm)
More hours have passed since April has fainted again. Not by the sight of four turtles but by the sight of their rat Sensei. At least, she is relieved to see another human in her presence but to her disappointment, she wasn't dreaming four big turtles and a giant talking rat.
When April was starting to wake up, Sally has order Leo to make some tea for their guest and Raph to go get Mikey who was tapping his shell to the music that was pumping out of his headphones. It was so loud that Sally could possibly hear from the other side of the Lair.
"Hey!" Raph said to his little brother but he was too busy listening to his music. Raph then gets closer to his eye and starts tapping him on the head to get his attention. "Hey, Earth to Mikey!"
"Ow! What?" Mikey irritated replied as he stops tapping and took his headphones off.
"She woke up. Leo made her tea and she's ready to consider that we might be real. At least, she considers Sal is real right away." Raph updated his little brother.
"AWESOMELY RADICAL, DUDE!" he exclaimed, loudly. Look like he is going to get a new friend.
"Ha, you keep talkin' like that, she's gonna pass out again." Raph retorted as he walks back to his family. Ok, Mikey is now annoyed.
"Hey!" He remarks as he puts down his headphones and music and walks over to the couch where April was sipping on some tea. Each member of the family is sitting in their designated spot. Master Splinter was kneeling in a chair, Raph and Leo are standing beside him, Don was sitting on the armrest of the couch and Sally was sitting next to the guest with her left leg under her right one with both hands in her lap. As she finishing sipping her tea, she looks over to the orange turtle that is approaching her.
"Sooo, you okay now?" Mikey calmly asked her but this time at a very distant space since he doesn't want her to faint again. But she hasn't fainted; yet.
"Yes, thanks. I've decided this is either a very long dream that I keep not waking up from, or it's the weirdest thing that ever happened to me." She replied.
"Young woman, we have something important to discuss." Splinter said.
"What?" April asked.
"We have never revealed ourselves to the upper world." The rat admits to the human lady. He then points to his children. "You have placed us all in great danger."
"But Master Splinter, she was in trouble and we helped her." Leo protested.
"Yeah, aren't you always teachin' us to try to do the right thing?" Raph asked.
"As you grow older, you will learn that there are many ways to do the right thing." Splinter advises his children. He then signs and looks down in fear. "But there is no going back." He then looks up to April. "I am afraid we find ourselves at…your mercy." Spitter apologetically bows to April.
April then realized that if she tells anyone about them, it's sayonara for the family of mutant's secret life. "Oh, I would never tell anybody. I mean, who would believe me?" April said as she tries to point out.
"She's got a point." Don replied to his master.
"Yeah, we're UNBELIEVABLE!" Mikey gloats as he flexes his muscle and stands there; show off like always. But Raph was standing next to him; resisting the urge to slap him.
"Geez, where's your off switch?" Raph sarcastic replied with his hands on his hip.
"Yeah, I don't think he was born with one." Sally jokily replies to her bot head brother.
"Seriously, I promise." April states while smiling slightly and placing her hand over heart. To make sure she was telling the truth, Splinter picks up his stick, stood up from his seat, walks up to April, kneels down at her head level and looks into the eyes. After a long stare, Splinter has reached a decision.
"…I believe you." Splinter declares. Look like the human has gained the rat's trust and he has gained her's.
Leo was over and kneeled beside Splinter. "Is this another lesson, Master Splinter? How to sense the truth?" Leo asked his father if this was another advance ninjutsu trick to learn.
"No. This is called trusting your gut." Splinter simply replies; disappointing his son.
"So if I'm keeping your secret… what exactly is it? Who are people… uh turtles… whatever." April wonders.
It was time for Splinter to explain their origin story. "I have memories" Splinter started "Memories of when I used to be what you call normal…"
(Manhatten, NY – 15 years ago)
In the story, it turns out the rat master used to be an ordinary rat; living in his home which it was a cardboard box. The rat appeared out of his resting place; sniffing the garbage around him.
"I remember a day that started like any other but ended changing the course of many lives."
The young rodent was hungry. Since he couldn't find any food in the alley, he decided to check the streets. He runs to the edge of the pavement
"I witness an accident."
The rat finds himself near a crossing in a friendly neighbour. A few people were waiting for green man so they can safe across. One of them appears to have something in his hands that will become a part of the rat's life. Forever.
"A young boy carried a glass jar with 4 pet infant turtles."
Across the street from the boy was another man who walking around with a stick who appears to be blind. The old man tapped the edge of the pavement and begins to cross the street. He was wearing a hat with a bowtie, sunglasses and his usual outing clothes. He also sports a moustache and a beard.
"An old blind man was crossing the street,…"
When he got halfway, the lights then turned green as a truck was approaching the crossing.
"…when he almost run down by a large truck."
It was a large truck indeed. But this armoured truck was special because it had the words "T.C.R.I" on the side of the vehicle. At the sight of the old blind man, the driver wasted no second as he beeped down the horn but the old blind guy didn't pay any attention as he continue to cross the street. The old blind was about to be roadkill!
Luckily, a black boy who was right behind the kid with the turtles was quick to notice the danger.
"Hey!" he yelps as he ran to save the poor man but he accidently pushed the same boy who dropped the jar that contains the turtles inside. As soon the jar makes contact with the ground, it was smashed into pieces; thus releasing the turtles as they were swept up in the flowing water.
"LOOK OUT!" the black boy cried out and pushes the old man; saving both their lives but causes the truck take a sharp turn to the right as the driver tries to gain control of the vehicle. While it was still out of control, the back door fling opened and a silver container with a glowing green substances hurl out of the truck as it comes to.
"As the truck swerved, a metal canister bounced out of the back."
The boy tried to reach out for his escaped pets but he withdrawn his hand when the canister made contact with the ground and fell into the stream; in pursuit of the reptiles. The turtles and the canister fell through the grate which leads into the sewers. As soon as the little pets fall down safely into the shallow end of the water, so the container as the glass cracked open; therefore releasing the substances inside. The same rat who had witness the entire scene, raced down into the sewers to see the baby turtles all covered in green ooze.
"It smashed open releasing a glowing ooze that covered their bodies."
All four helpless turtles looked at the rodent who gains a remorseful expression. He then looks over to his left and see a used coffee can
"I took pity; gathered them up in a coffee can."
The rat grabs the can and rolls it near the feeble reptiles. He places the can upright as he picks one of the turtles by the tail and proceeds to put them in the can. Before he could put the first one, the cute turtle shook off the ooze off him and it got all over the rat. Annoyed by this, the rat wiped the ooze off him and gives a glare to the turtle but nonetheless, places the turtles in the can and rolls them to a safe place; in case of being seeing by anyone who has already witness the event up on the surface.
"I took them to my burrow."
The rat's home was a long tunnel which it was big enough for the rat and the turtles that is filled with hay. He carefully placed the can in the hay where he makes a makeshift nest for the baby reptiles by using the hay as a bed. With that was done, the rat decided to retire for the night after a day he has just experiences. But he was about to experiences a lot more tomorrow.
"The next morning,…"
Someone has poked the rat on the nose. As the rodent opens it eyes, he could not believe what he was seeing the next.
"I have awoke to find the four have doubled in size. The ooze had affected their growth."
The four turtles were too big to be baby turtles but thanks to the effect of the ooze, they have gain human-like pupils as well and they also have three-fingered hands and two-toed feet. They became also…human. But then, the rat also began to realise something else as well. He was hit the ooze as well when the turtle shook off the substances off him. He looked at his paw to find it was big too. Not just his paw but he grew as well. He has also gain eyebrows, a small batch of beard under his chin and his rat eyes became more like human.
"It changed me also; making me larger and more intelligent."
Later that day while scavenging for food, the rat has also gain the ability to walk on his hind legs; like a human. With every step that he is taking, he has become more and more like a human rather than like a rat. The baby turtles were following their new 'master' around.
"They followed me everywhere, except above ground. I knew that the people of the surface would not understand. We are so…different."
The baby turtles are still walking like normal turtles but sooner than later, they were all mimic on how to walk on their hind legs like the rat. The rodent could only be impressed with them as he continues to watch the reptile evolve more.
"I was amazed by their dexterity, but even so, I was not prepared for what happened one day."
"Splin-ter!" one of the turtle spoke.
The rat could only turn around when they spoke their very first word which actually stunned the rodent.
"They actually spoke; my name! Soon they all were speaking."
Time fast forward to where the mutants have managed to gain food: Pizza. They brought the food over to the temporary home; the tunnel. As the rat watches the young turtles with a patience observation, the turtles were gathering around their food.
"Awesome!" said the first turtle as he licks his lips, properly the oldest.
He was then pushed over by another turtle next to him. "Mine!" bark the tough one as he add a laugh.
The first turtle was then attacked by the third turtle, who seem to be younger than the first two turtles. He jumps on his brother's shoulder and holds on to his head for support. "Pizza, dude!" he playfully exclaimed as the first struggles to get him off.
The last and perhaps, the youngest turtle was keen to eat their new found favourite food as he lets out his very own battle cry. "Cowabunga!" he pumped his fist in the air and he along his brothers jumped into the pizza, playfully wrestle around, gobbling up as much pizza as they can eat.
Covered in pizza sauce and grease from wrestling around in their food, they manage to get a portion of the last slice of the pizza and bite of piece of it. They all looked over to the rat who could only look at them in strange, disgusted expression but awestruck with their growing mind. Well, sort of.
"Intelligence followed soon after. Realizing that the world above is sometimes a dangerous place, I began teaching them ninjustu: the secret art of stealth and power and all that I knew of this world."
Fast forward to sometime the present where the rat is now sporting a brown robe and the turtles have already grown up. One of them was a Katana wielding ninja who is kneeling beside his father and the other was a human as they watch the other two are sparring with their own weapons: the Bo Staff and the Nunchakus. The fourth turtle with his Sais placed his belt was duking it out with a punching bag.
"From a battered book on Renaissance art that I fished out of the storm drain, I chose names for each of them."
The first turtle who wields the Katana Blades jumps in the air, lands one foot; twirling his swords and finishes in a Bo stance.
"Leonardo…"
The second turtle appears in front of the first one while spinning his Bo Staff and holds his weapon in a blocking position and stands in a Bo stance as well.
"Donatello…"
The third turtle comes out in front of the second as he pulls his Sais out and whirls them around. He then holds the handle of his weapons so that the tip of the Sais is pointing down and crouches down.
"Raphael…"
And the last turtle jumps right in front of him as he swings his Nunchakus but got hit by the one in his right hand which lets out a painful yelp. He recovers quickly and holds his weapons in hand and stands in a Bo stance like two of his brothers.
"Michelangelo."
The three other turtles then jumped forward and joined their little brother as they posed in another position.
"Together they are…"
(In the Lair, Manhattan NY – Present Time)
The flashback story ends as the four turtles give themselves their own "high-three" with Splinter, Sally and April watching them.
"TURTLES FOREVER" the four mutants shouted.
"Or something like that, that we all yell at once." Mikey told April as he sits on the armrest.
Raph comes over and sits down next to Sally. "First rule: Ignore Mikey. Your life will be much easier." He advises April. Mikey simply ignores his brother's remark, walks around the couch and goes to the television.
"So, we have lived in secret and that is our story." Splinter finished the story as he rose up with the help of his staff and walks over to, finishing their origin story.
"But how did you know martial arts?" She then looks at Sally. "And when did you fit in all of this?" April asked the young kunoichi who was right beside her.
"That is a story for another time." Splinter assures her.
"And for me, well, long story short: They found me in the sewers when I was baby. Don't know how I ended up down there exactly." Sally explains her side of the story.
"Hey guys! Look at this!" They looked over to see Mikey watching the news about the recent robbery that happens this morning. They all approach the orange turtle excerpt for Raph who stayed sa=eated on the couch as they continue to watch the news.
"And the police are completely baffled by this daring bank robbery, boldly executed in broad daylight."
The TV now shows an open bank vault that had a big gaping hole in the middle with empty containers all scattered across the room. They all continue to watch as Mikey could only shake his head in displeasure.
"If anyone as any information, the police urge you to call the crime stoppers hotline."
"So, anybody wanna take a wild guess what did this?" the orange turtle asked the gang. But he doesn't need an answer straight away as a very familiar footprint appears on the screen.
"Stockman's robbed the bank during broad daylight?" Sally spoke in a surprised tone. Then again, she was rather impressed of the scientist's efforts as they all continue to watch the news. "Ok, I have to admit. This guy's got guts." April walks over to the television. She then remembers her old boss's true motive about the reason of building the Mousers other than decreasing the city's rat population before he sic his robot on her.
"This must be what I heard Doctor Stockman talking about." The young woman replies as she turns around to face the ninjas. "He's got the mousers robbing banks."
"What do you know about this Stockman guy?" Raph asked.
"He's a genius, he's also nuts." April explained to the gang as she places her right hand and grabs hold of left arm.
"Figures." Sally whisper next to Leo.
April then continued onwards. "I used to work for him but when I got suspicion, he turn the Mousers on me. Luckily, I ran into you guys."
Leo then turned to his family and comes to a conclusion. "He destroyed our old Lair."
"Must've been one of his Mouser test runs." April replied as she now placed her hands on her hips.
"But that was our home…" Mikey whined.
"And now he's graduated to banks." Don then added.
As angry as always, Raph couldn't feel but to go over to Stockman and pay for what he has done. "Then what are we waiting for?" He asked as he stood up from the couch, pulls out his Sais and twirls them around. "I say we shut down Mouser central." Then hold his weapons in a cross in front of his face. "Permanently!"
Mikey chuckled lightly. "I just love those action movie lines. You write those yourself?" the orange turtle asked as he walks over to his brothers. Sally looks over to the young women who was stunned to see Raph all fired up and prepares to take down the crazy scientist
"Don't worry, April. Raphie here is not going to hurt anyone." The young kunoichi assures her. She then turned to her brothers with a glee look on her face. "Anyway, now we got reason to go, let's head over to Stocktronics!" She exclaims as she punches her right fist into her left hand. April then thinks for a minute. Look like they are going to need more than brute force on the mission.
"It won't be easy. Stocktronics is rigged with the latest up-to-the-minute security tech." April explained how it works at her old workplace.
"Pfft, bring it on!" Mikey brags as he walks over to the purple turtle and placed his hands on his shoulder. "Allow me to introduce our very own secret weapon, the techno-turtle himself: Donatello! Take a bow Don." He happily announces.
"Aw, cut it out." Don sheepishly replied. Look like April is not the only one who experience with technology.
Raph is now getting a little bit edgy. "Can… we… go… PLEASE?!" Raph begged. Look like in just about a second, he was getting ready to snap something.
With a plan in motion, the gang leaves the lair heads over to Stocktronics
(Underneath Stocktronics, Manhattan, NY – 5:36pm)
As the emergency door opened up that leads to the sewers, the Mousers themselves entered through. After a hard day of robbing the bank, the Mousers then returned to their location. But they didn't come back empty handed. As the first Mouser comes to a halt, it opens up his behind and dumps the loot from its container. The other Mousers followed in pursuit as they do the same thing. Right above them is their creator who was watching down; pleased with his progress.
"Excellent! EXCELLENT! The world as they say is my oyster, and aren't the pearls lovely?" Baxter said evilly. But he was then interrupted by an incoming transmission. Well, that'swas pretty rude for someone who was too busy gloating his success. But he couldn't let the call go unanswered.
He lets out a growl before he takes the call. "What?" He harshly answered it. But this call was from someone he knows.
"Dr. Stockman." announced the caller. It was Oroku Saki. The same guy whom Stockman had spoken to last night.
Stockman sits down in his seat and crosses his arms over. "Make it quick, I'm very busy." The scientist rudely retorted.
"I am contacting you to verify that you are fulfilling the end of our bargain. And that you are on schedule." Saki replies.
But scientist himself could not take another comment from his boss. Mr. "Big Man" thinks he can mock the Dr. Baxter Stockman's work and agreement. Well, the scientist will prove him wrong.
"I will NOT stand for anymore of this IDIOTIC interrogation!" Stockman angrily replied. "I've advanced the Mousers to the next stage and they are securing the funds from the bank as you requested." He then stands up from his seat with his hands turned into fist. "Can't you grasp that SIMPLE concept?"
"Do not presume too much, Dr. Stockman. The price for failure will be quite…extreme." Saki warned. During the conversation, Stockman slammed his fist onto the desk; still having an annoyed expression on his face. Stockman hangs up and sits back into his seat.
"Imbecile!" Stockman growled to himself as he shakes his fist. Then he crosses his arms over and closes his eyes. With confident, he is certain that everything will go according to plan and he will not miss it up by anything or anyone or else he will pay the price…
(Near Stocktronics, Manhattan, NY – 6:01pm)
...and by anyone, that means four large turtles and two humans. Smoke was seaming through the manhole cover that was near the building where underneath it are April who was leading the five ninjas to Stocktronic through the sewer. This was also the same sewer tunnel that April took to get away from the Mousers
They came around the corner when they all overhear a beeping noise. April holds out her hand; halting the teens. Even Don knew what she meant as he tells his sibling to be quiet. April then looks behind to the ninjas and points to the source of the beeping. It was a small circular monitor detector that will go off if it detects something or someone. Cautiously, April crouches down, slowly walks under, rises up from the other side and opens up the detector as Don joins her from the other side and carefully pulls the wire from the sensor. Once they find a way to shut it off, they will be able to slip in without getting caught.
"Alarms in the sewer? Is this guy paranoid or what?" Mikey whisper as he cracks a joke as well. Unfortunately, nobody giggled or snicker.
"Will you it shut it?" Raph angrily whispered to his little brother.
"I'm just saying…" Mikey quietly replies as he shrugs. Annoyed by the noise that his brothers were making, the purple turtle looks back to them.
"Could April and I have some quiet, this is delicate work." Don politely asked as he carefully takes the alarm out; part by part. Mikey decided to take opportunity to tease his brother.
"OOOO. April and I. This is delicate work. Give me a break." He scoffs as he folds his arms over.
Annoyed as always because of her little brother, Sally could only roll her eyes in exasperate. "Mikey, don't make me come over there." Sally harshly whispers to her little brother but he didn't listen to her. With the security alarm shut off, the heroes make their way through the vents. Sally decided to take the lead since she has the ability to sense anything within a mile or anything that from the next room and April was right behind her because she pretty much know the place well. They make their way to a closest air vent where Sally puts her hand up to halt the team and tells them to be quiet. Thanks to her, she has only sense two guards who were coming around the corner. They were wearing a jumpsuit with light brown and black on the back, a light brown hat, a black belt that holds the club and black shoes. They also wear glasses with built-in communication gear. The company logo was on their uniform and hat. Sally continues to observe them as they walk pass the certain vent and around the other corner.
"All clear." Sally announced as she slowly opens the vent door.
"Is this the place?" Raph asked the young women who was beside her
She points to the room across from them. "There's a computer terminal in that lab. Get me in and I can create blank spots into the security system to get you through to Dr. Stockman's main lab." April told him.
"Don't look now, we already got a blank spot right here." Raph jokes as he points to the orange turtle that was right behind him who just glares at him.
"Hey." Said one very annoyed turtle.
"Don't worry about them, April. Raph and Mikey have a love-hate thing with each other. You'll get used to it." Sally assures the young women as she was the first one to jump out of the vent. She does one check around the area to make sure that no-one is heading this way. Lucky for them, they were in the clear. Sally puts her hand up and signals the rest to come out. Raph was the second to jump out and then he went back to the air vent and help April out and then the others followed. They all approached the lab door where Raph jiggle the door knob. Turns out it was lock. But that wasn't going to stop the team full of ninjas and a young scientist from completing the mission. Raph pulls out one of his Sai. He looks back at April to show her a little nifty trick. He carefully pushes his Sai into the keyhole and starts to pit lock it. After a few twist and turns with his weapon, the red turtle manages to unlock the door. He opens it and does a handstand, flips over and does one more front flip in the air and lands on the ground with both his weapon in hand as Leo and Sally were the next ones in and Mikey and Don were standing at the door. Fortunately, the lights were out and they was no-one in sight as April rushes over to the computer and gets to work. On her screen were schematics of the building along with the security system.
"Okay I'm in." April looks back to the teens. "I'm blanking the cameras along that corridor at ten second intervals." She told them as both Raph and Leo looked at the door. The young women goes back to her computer and continues to hack in. "So you've got to keep moving."
"We'll be right back." Leo assures her.
"Good luck." April looks behind her but to her surprised, the teens have already left. Guess they pulled the old ninja vanish on her which actually leaves the young women speechless.
"Hey these guys are good." she said to herself as she gets back to work.
Right now, the ninjas were racing down the corridor as they make their way to Dr. Stockman's main lab like April told them. They arrived at the large door; indicating it's leads to the main lab.
As the doors open, the ninjas pulled out their weapons and caution walked into the lab. The lights were out so they have to be extra careful. Good thing that Sally can sense where the approaching danger
"This is too quiet." Leo informed the gang; implying them the oblivious. Sally halts a minute, followed by her siblings.
"Just let me get my bearings on this room." Sally told her brothers as she closes her eyes and begins to sense the room. While she was doing that, Mikey can't help feeling…uneasy about this. Something doesn't feel right for the ninja turtle himself and so does his siblings.
"Uh guys, my turtle sense is tingling." Mikey said. And talk about bad timing because just then, the doors then closed behind them and the lights then turned on
Sally didn't have a chance to look behind like her siblings did because her eyes were set on the control booth right above them. She sense someone is in there and it is not April. "Up there!" Sally exclaims as she pointed to the room. Her brother turned around and followed the direction of her finger to the booth.
"Intruders? Here to steal MY secrets?" spoke a booming voice over the loud speaker. It was Dr. Stockman. He wasn't expecting companion tonight. Up in the main control room, the scientist was looking at the screen in front of him as he gets a close up view on the ninjas. "You will leave here with nothing. Not even your lives." Stockman was looking at his heat sensor to view his intruders but what he was looking at which actually stunned him; except for human who was with them.
"What on earth are you?" he wonders as he rubs his hands together. "Hmm, I suppose I'll have to dissect you to find out."
He then pressed on a button on his control panel to activate a little surprised for his guests. He has triggers a group of large lasers that appeared out of the ceiling and aimed right at the ninjas! The Turtles and Sally couldn't help but feel worried. They have never faced off against lasers before in their life as the laser takes its first shot at them.
The teens used their ninja training to dodge the lasers which caused them to be separate for now. Leo does a forward flip, lands in forward roll and does one handstand flip where his shell ends up meeting one of the pillars. One of the lasers turned and pointed at the blue turtle and fire at him. Leo manages to dodge it by the skin of his shell as the laser only hits the pillar.
Mikey was doing his fair share when the laser nearly hit his foot which caused the orange turtle to jumps and does a side roll. But unfortunately, another laser came around the corner and starts shooting at the ninja who was on his four and fires like crazy as Mikey did his best to dodge every single one of them.
Raph, on the other hand, was running away from two laser of his own. While he was on the run, Leo, who manage to get away from his laser, was hiding behind a pillar as he watches his brother trying to outrun the lasers. The blue turtle has already pulled out his Katanas and runs to his brother's aid.
"Raph, heads up!" Leo exclaims as he runs in front of the red turtle. He holds his Katanas in a cross and holds them in front of him. The laser fires at him but instead of hitting him, it hits his swords which he then deflected back to the machine; thus destroying it.
With a way to destroy the weapon that you can reach, the others were now thinking the same thing. Sally does a back flip as she escapes a hit from the laser. She was in her kneeling position when another laser joins the fight as the two lasers fires at the young kunoichi. Quick to think, Sally pulls out her Kodachi and does exactly what the blue turtle but different by deflecting two lasers attacks and send it back to the cannon. Sally stands up from his kneeling position and looks behind to see her two ninja brothers.
"Ha! Two for the price of one!" Sally gloats at her effort.
Don decided to up close and personal as he pole vault with the help of his Bo Staff and sends him flying onto the laser. He manages to aim the laser at two more and fires them; completely destroying them. This earns a cheer from his three older siblings who are down below as they pump their fist in the air with their weapons in hand. As the laser moves around, Don was smart enough to open the hatch and pulls out wires from its circuit. He then flips backward and gently lands on his feet as he looks up to see the laser machine gun itself goes crazy and then it blew up.
"C'mon guys, let's get him!" Sally exclaims as she, Leo, Raph and Mikey all head for their next target: Stockman. Don picks up his weapon that he dropped before and joins his siblings as they run towards to the control booth where the scientist is. He couldn't believe that these freaks plus a girl would be skilled enough to actually dodge his attacks
"Impossible." He baffled as he holds his control stick and aims his laser at them and fires the shot at them but he miss. He fires again but this time at Raph but the red turtle flips through the barrage as he finds himself under the booth but away from the danger. He was close to the target but instead of climbing, he knows another way to get to the top quick. He then looks across from to see his younger brother peeping from his hiding.
"Mikey! Slingshot!" Raph called out to him as Mikey rushed towards while narrowly escapes the attacks. Just as he was approaching Raph, the red turtle puts his hands together and wait for brother to come. As soon the orange turtle's foot was in his hands, Raph flings his little brother up in the air as he lands on the window still; surprising the scientist out of his pants! Mikey grabs his Nunchakus and used it to slams a big through the window. Bits of glass were flying in the room and Stockman tumbles backward from the impact as the other ninjas arrived. Leo holds his Katana at the scientist.
"Your reign of terror is over Stockman" Leo said.
"You've been practicing that?" Mikey admirably asked as he placed his hand on the leader's shoulder.
"You like it?" he approvingly replied to his little brother with a smile.
"I'll admit: it worked for you." The young kunoichi states it as she slams her fist into her hands; ready for some payback time. Stockman couldn't believe what he was seeing. Other than the human with them, he sees four giant turtles; right in front of him!
"What are you?" Stockman shakily requested but to his unaware, the elevator doors open up from behind him.
"They're with me!"
Stockman turns around and was stunned to see April O'Neil, his old assistant – alive and well. She stands in the elevator with her hands on her hands as she looks down on her old boss.
"April? You're alive?" he baffled.
"And kicking!" She then walks out of the elevator and up to the scientist as he carefully crawls backwards to where his seat and main computer is. The Turtles, Sally and April have the doctor surround and there was nowhere he could run. "I've got enough evidence to put you away for years, Dr. Stockman." She said as she points her finger at him. But the doctor has one trick up his sleeve. Stockman quickly turns around and presses a button on his computer before he was grabbed by the collar from a very angry turtle and pushes the scientist up against his computer.
"That's ENOUGH!" Raph snarled at the scientist; hoping to scared him but he can only pull an evil grin on him.
"Ha! Too late! I've recalled the Mousers horde from their latest mission. They'll be here any second. They'll tear you to pieces!" The scientist haunts his words into the ninjas as April approaches the computer.
"April…" Leo prayed to the young woman; hoping she knows how to shut down the Mousers. April seats down on the seat and begins to hack into the system.
"I'll have to shut the whole system down"
The purple turtle approaches her. "I'll help."
Stockman looks over to the two geniuses. He believes that there is no-way that they can shut the robots down. "You're doomed. Listen." The scientist looks to his right. They could all hear the sound of their robotic feet getting louder as the emergency doors opened. An army of Mousers have arrived and they are on their way.
"Aw, shell" Sally muttered as they approached the control booth. April and Don are still working at the computer while Sally and Leo were looking down from the ladder.
"April?" Leo wonders as Mikey joins in to see. The Mousers were advances enough to climb the ladder! "Now's the time!"
April signs in frustration. "The system isn't responding!" she admits as she looks to her new brainy friend who was working as hard as he can. Unaware of them knowing, Stockman decided to make his exit as he slips away and heads for the elevator. As the Mousers continue to climb the ladder and now, scaling the wall and pillar, the young kunoichi was lucky to notice the doctor's escape.
"Stockman!" she bellows as the others, excluding Don and April, see the doctor who was already in the elevator.
"You should never have matched wits with me!" He malevolent smirked at them as he presses the button on the elevator and the doors were beginning to close on him.
"He's getting away!" Mikey called out as he and Sally quickly chased after him, but they didn't get to him in time.
"Let him go. We've got bigger problems." He advises his siblings as he and the others turned around to see the Mousers coming from both directions. The ninjas are now in battle mode as the robots were coming from all directions by coming from either side, smashing through the windows and entering for the same elevator. Leo, Raph, Mikey and Sally still kept their guard as they carefully take a step back. They find themselves back in the main computer room where Don and April were still at it. Not only they have to fight the robots but they also have to guard they only hope of stopping them.
"At least we go out fighting." Raph declares as he and his siblings are ready for the fight of their lives.
"Actually, I don't wanna go out at all!" Mikey admits.
Back at the computer, April was definitely in panic mode now. "It's not working" April states as she continues to type. Don looks over to her. He was also frantic as she was as he continues to hack the system. "Keep trying!" the purple turtle advises her as she looks at him with concern look on her face.
"This is it…It's been fun, guys…" Raph remarks; ready to fight to the end.
"Even me, Raph?" Mikey asked his toughest brother he has ever known.
"Even you, Mikey. Especially you." Raph replied to his joyful brother. The Mousers were still closing in on the ninjas as they prepare to meet their doom.
But after a few typing and hacking, April looks behind to see the Mousers and quickly presses a button which actually astonished the teen ninjas when they experience what happened next. The Mousers came to a complete halt. All of them stopped attacking the ninjas. Only their eye was blinking. To make sure that they were shut down, Leo pulls out his Katana and tapped it on the head of the closest Mouser. To their relief, they didn't attack!
The teens lets out a cheer as Leo and Mikey "high-three", Raph was pumping his fist in the air and Sally punch her right fist in the air and her left fist close to her heart. Even Don was impressed with April's achievement of shutting down and advance piece of technology under so much pressure.
"Good job, April. I've never seen anything like that" Don congratulated the young scientist. But April didn't even tell them what she really did.
"HA! Losers!" Mikey mocked as he picks up an inactive Mouser.
"Guys? GUYS!" April exclaims as she turns to her friends who all looked at her. "I wasn't able to shut them down."
Ok, now the teens were confused. If she didn't shut them down, then what did she do? As everyone looked at each other, Mikey ignores her concern and plays with the Mouser in his hand.
"They look pretty shut down to me." Mikey assures her as he tapes the head with his knuckles. To be certain, Sally takes a closer look at the Mouser's eye and sees it is flashing red. This is NOT a good sign but the young kunoichi has to make sure.
She turns to April. "W-what do ya mean, April?" she asked her.
"The only way I could stop them was by initiating an overload sequence…" April admits as smoke was coming out from the Mouser's jaws, especially the one in Mikey's hand. Mikey quickly dropped it like it was a hot potato and look to his family and friend.
"In other words…LET'S GET OUT OF HERE!" He bellows as he, Leo, Raph and Sally all jumped out through the recent broken window and raced to the emergency door. Don and April were the last ones but since April was not skilled enough to jump out of a tall booth, Don carries her in a bridal style and jumps down and lands safety on the ground. Don puts April down, grabs her hand and runs to the others who were waiting for them to join as they escape through the emergency and good timing too because the Mousers have just exploded; destroying the main computer lab and the entire room. The gang then all returned back to the lair.
Meanwhile on ground floor that was still shaking from the impact, Stockman didn't seem to care as long as his opponents were all burnt up in the explosion. He was still running through the hallway as he heads for the exit. He then looks back to see that no-one is following him as he pasted an evil smirk on his face.
"I've got them. I've got them ALL!" he beamed to himself but he didn't look where he was going when he bumped into something and was flanged back. He rubs his head as he comes back to his senses and looks up to find the last person he ever wanted to be with.
"You." The man he was staring was very tall man with huge muscles. His long blond hair was tied back into a ponytail that hangs in front of him. He was wearing short-sleeve black top, along with black pants, a purple belt and black shoes. He also sports three scars on his left cheek, a large purple dragon tattoo that wraps around his left arm and a symbol of the Foot tattoo on his right arm. His bloodshot eyes look down at the scientist.
"What do you want, Hun?" Baxter harshly asked the muscle man. But Hun did not move an inch. He just stood there, like a statue but his voice was booming and deep for any weak person to coward in fear.
"Trouble, Dr. Stockman?" Hun bitterly asked. Look like the scientist is now in trouble.
"Trouble? No, no! Everything's proceeding exactly as I planned." Baxter simply replied as he brushed off some of the dust from his cloths. But proved wrong when the building shook some more as debris fall from the ceiling. Hun grabbed Stockman by the collar and brings him right up to his face. The look on Hun's remains unchanged.
"Perhaps you'd like to explain this plan to the master." Hun sates to his face. Fear has taken over his face as Stockman struggles out of his grip but no avail.
"Let me go, you brainless muscle-bound Idiot! Let me go! LET ME GO!" Stockman orders him to but ignores him as Hun still carries him to the exit.
Look like the scientist has some explaining to do…
(In the Lair, Manhattan NY – 6:20pm)
The gang have safety returned to the Lair as they are watching the latest new update on the Stocktronics. Luckily for them, no-one suspect that it was invaded by four mutant turtles and two human. They were having tea and biscuits as a celebration of not only taking down Dr. Stockman and his Mousers but also April for joining the team.
"And the authorities are COMPLETELY perplexed by the destruction of Stocktronics building and the sudden disappearance of Doctor Baxter Stockman."
The rat who was sitting in his armchair looks up to the young women. "What will you do now, Miss O'Neil? You are most definitely out of a job." Splinter asked about the young women current occupation.
"I'm…not exactly sure." April replied.
Feeling sorry for his new friend, the purple turtle walks up to April. "We'll help you get back on your feet." Don assures her. With that, the young woman was touched by the ninjas' devotion and her frown was turned upside-down.
"You guys, you've all been…well…Great!" April acknowledges them. "And by guys, I mean 4 large talking turtles, a giant talking rat, and a human."
"I'll take that as a compliment." Sally admits as Leo raised his glass in the middle.
"Here's to the new team!" Leo declared. Everyone then clinked their glasses together as they let out a big cheer. With a new member on their team, the family of ninjas are going to need all the help they can when they come face-to-face with a new face…
(Unknown building – 6:20pm)
…and definitely, all the help that they can get. Sitting in his office, Oroku Saki was sitting on his table as he listening to Dr. Stockman's explanation about the ruckus in his lab and the sudden explosion while Hun was on the side as he keep an eye on the scientist.
"So, as any fool could see, the whole thing was simply a minor setback." The doctor calmly explained to Saki and Hun. As he continues to clarify, Saki placed his right hand on his handheld gauntlet with two sharp blades that were placed next to him on the table as well. He picks it up and places it on his left hand. "With your continued funding, the research can continue immediately." "I'll be back at work, oh, Monday Morning." Stockman declared as he fixes his glasses up. But the doctor though wrong because both Saki and Hun were not convincing by this fantasy that Stockman was telling them.
Hun looks at Saki as he placed his feet on the ground and stands up from the table. He points his gauntlet at the scientist. He has warned the scientist before and now, he is going to face the consequences. "You must pay the price for failure, Dr. Stockman." Saki snarled as Stockman looks on with fear on his face. He then looks behind him to see Hun who grabs him by the shoulder and drags him away.
"No! Where you taking me?! You'll regret this! NO!" Stockman barks at them as the door closes on him. Saki watches another failure leaves as he looks to his right. Approaching him was a Foot Technician who wears a special grey headgear that covers his eyes with electronic objective lenses that moved around in a circle, a dark grey jumpsuit with the red foot symbol on the left side of his uniform, black gloves, a black belt that carries tool that need and black boots. Also, there are wires coming out of the headgear and are connected to a container that is located on the back part of their belt. He comes to a halt and respectfully bows to his master.
"We have the image that you requested, Master." He replied as he looks up while the lenses spin a bit around. He stands up and grabs the remote from his belt and presses a button which a projector screen falls down. Another Foot Technician approaches but this time, he pushes the projector on a trolley. Hanging above the machine is what seems to be a dented but working Mouser that was not destroyed in the explosion
"So, the last remaining image the Mouser's optics recorded." Saki said as his two employees turn on the projector as it showed the image of both the Turtles and Sally on the screen. By the look of this image, Saki knew that the explosion was caused by them.
It was official.
Saki appears to have new enemies lurking about in the city. He couldn't help but feel…disturbed by their appearances and their actions. But one thing for sure, he knows exactly what to do.
"These are the ones responsible." He then leaps into the air and slashes the projector screen in half. He then raised his gauntlet up as he looks on with a snarling look on his face. He now has a new target:
Them.
Look like Saki finally knows about the Turtles and Sally and he will be expecting a lot more from them in the future and April has finally accepted into the team. There is a lot surprises heading this way and that's all going to happen next time on:
The Saint's Hope: Meet Casey Jones.
Author's Notes: Hey! Sorry for the late update. I was actually busy for the past week. Wanna know why? Well, here are the reasons:
1. Relatives came down for the weekend; especially on Anzac Day. First of all, we give thanks to the serviceman and servicewomen for giving their lives to protect our country. Plus, Essendon vs. Collingwood. A WIN FOR THE BOMBERS! SEE THE BOMBERS FLY UP, UP! Gotta love the red and black team. Five straight win so far. How far can we go? I wonder if this is our year. If I remember correctly, the last time they won the Grand Final was back in 2000 but came second in the following year. Rats!
2. My dogs were having complaints about the chicken that we had on the farm which it is one of the reasons why I didn't finish this chapter. Well, because the chickens keep flying into my dogs' yard when they should've stay in theirs. So, in other words: Chickens flies in, Dogs do the Meet and Eat, End of story. I was pretty mad at the dogs but it's not their fault since their yard is next door to the chickens' yard. The chicken needs to learn where their place is.
3. I have been watching TMNT 2012 series lately plus the new one that was shown on Friday. That episode was actually are really good. Plus, I pretty much HATE Karai now in this episode. I mean, picking on a girl like April who was just a beginning. Harsh but man, she was NOT expecting April's surprise attack by flinging Karai down the subway stairs. Ha! It's Payback Time! Also, people have been saying that she and Leo should end up together. Well, I'll say… No way, Jose in my book! Leo should end up with anyone else but NOT HER!
4. I have been a bit busy lately because I did pretty much nothing for a day on Saturday because, well, I was playing FFXIII-2 and Pokemon Conquest. Both a big fan of the franchise and I haven't been playing them for a while now and I really wanted to get into it.
And that's why I haven't updated at the promise time. But I promise I will update every Sunday at 8:00pm. Also, when Stockman was watching his Mousers through the cameras, what did he said in the sentence before the word "Genius"? Just curious though because I can't find the quote or I never heard about that word before in my life. If you know, that would VERY helpful and I'll put that in the fanfic next week. So, remember to review and add me or the story to favorites. Love to hear more from my fans! Sayonara!
Until we meet again,
TheDragonLord2912
