Chapter 05: Hot Rodding Teenagers from Dimension X (Happy Halloween!)
For once, the New York City skies were clear enough to let in the dim light of the stars.
At least, the light that could shine through the city lights. Clear skies, warm air, and a full moon.
A perfect night to relax and take it easy.
But not for four turtles and a news reporter on a mission.
April finally found Baxter Stockman's old building and pulled the van over right in front of it.
She turned off the car and the Turtles jumped from the van.
"With all the equipment Baxter left up there we can turn that van into a tracking station." Said Donatello.
"And hunt down the Technodrome but good!" Yelled Donatello as he pounded his fist together.
"Well yeah, but how are we gonna get it up there?" Michelangelo asked, staring at the four-story building.
Donatello thought for a moment.
"Well, I do have one idea." Said Donatello.
"So's long as it doesn't require much work." Said Raphael.
Ten minutes later, they climbed three flights of stairs while pushing the van in front of them.
"Couldn't we maybe have taken the elevator?" Asked Michelangelo as he groaned as they shoved the hulking car up the stairs.
"It wouldn't fit in the elevator!" Yelled Donatello as he grunted.
"Shut up and push!" Yelled Raphael as he snapped.
It took another ten minutes to finally push the van up to the top floor and into Baxter Stockman's lab.
The Turtles, however, immediately collapsed right outside the door while April parked the van.
She marched up to the terrapins and pulled them to their feet, urging them to get a move on.
They had a mission, after all: find the Technodrome and Shredder.
They couldn't give up now, when they possessed something that could give them an advantage.
Donatello pulled off the side of the van, tossing the metal aside.
His brain exploded with the ideas he had for the van, and it took all the willpower he had to focus on one thing at a time.
"Boy, check out this junk!" Yelled Michelangelo as he laughed.
"Well, I bet ol' Donatello could whip up some heavyweight turtle gear with all these spare parts, huh?" Asked Raphael as he smirked.
"Yeah, but like, what if Baxter comes back?" Asked Michelangelo.
April laughed a little.
"Baxter won't be back for a long time, Michelangelo." Replied April.
"The authorities didn't appreciate it when he tried to take over the city with his mouser robots." Said Raphael.
"And I didn't appreciate it when they ate my apartment!" Yelled April as she huffed.
As they talked, Donatello screwed in a backboard and starting attaching a seat to the makeshift door in the van's side. He sighed.
"I wonder if all this work is worth it?" Asked Donatello.
"It will be when we hunt the Shredder down." Replied Leonardo as he assured.
"But why do we have to do it?" Asked Donatello.
"It's the humans' problem!" Yelled Donatello as he pointed out.
"He seems to have it in for you guys too." Said April pointed out.
"Or had you forgotten?" Asked April.
"But us Turtles, outcasts of society." Said Donatello as he reasoned.
"Why do we have to stand alone against the forces of evil?" Asked Donatello.
"Face it, man." Replied Michelangelo.
"It's the only job we're qualified for." Said Michelangelo.
Donatello thought on it briefly.
"Oh yeah, you're right, well, back to work." Said Donatello as he did.
"And let's not forget why we're doing this." Said Leonardo.
"Not only is the Shredder a threat, but he's the only clue we have to turning Splinter to a human again and in case you've all forgotten…" Said Leonardo as his fists clenched.
"Shredder took away two people very important to us." Said Leonardo.
Everyone fell silent as Donatello stopped working.
Raphael sighed.
"I know Adam was only with us a few days, but I really miss Kairu." Said Raphael.
"It's not fair." Said Michelangelo as he huffed angrily.
"He was supposed to go home." Said Michelangelo.
"And now thanks to us, he's gone, along with Kairu." Said Donatello as he sighed.
"They will be avenged." Said Leonardo as he assured.
"Shredder will pay for it, and I'm sure we can all take comfort in knowing they stayed strong till the end." Said Leonardo.
"How can you know that?" Asked April.
"It's Adam and Kairu we're talking about." Replied Raphael.
"Their strength of body is like their sharpness of tongue." Said Raphael.
Meanwhile Underground
"You know this is degrading, right?" Asked Adam as he snapped.
"You act like I care." Said Shredder as he pointed out.
"Dude, I am chained to a swivel chair and you're pulling me and Kairu around like some weird dog." Said Adam as he countered.
"I don't know which is worse: the fact that it's degrading or the fact that it's totally weird!" Yelled Adam.
"Oh do shut up." Said Shredder as he droned.
Adam huffed.
He couldn't do much else.
Shredder chained him to a swivel chair and his arms remained pinned behind his back.
His feet were chained to the base of the chair so they didn't drag across the ground but still remained incapable of use.
He had no weapons, Shredder never took his shuriken, but he figured because he never searched him.
Still, without proper use of his arms he couldn't use the small blades hidden in his sleeves and belt.
Worst of all, Shredder latched leash, a full-on dog leash, around the chains that kept Kairu pinned to the chair, and dragged him around so he could "keep an eye on him".
Sometimes, he would ask Adam questions about his past and her presence in his dimension, but Adam kept his mouth shut most of the time.
Right now, Shredder stood at the controls to the Technodrome's steering, moving the hulking machine through the underground of New York City.
"You addle-brained idiot!" Yelled Krang as he shouted, making Adam, Kairu and Shredder jump.
"You can't even beat a bunch of miserable turtles!" Yelled Krang.
"I refuse to give you one more iota of my technology until you finish building my new body!" Yelled Krang.
"Whoa, guess you were telling the truth Kairu." Said Adamas he looks at Kairu.
"Told ya." Said Kairu.
"Your body is but one of many biomechanical experiments I am conducting in the Technodrome, Krang!" Yelled Shredder as he snapped and ignored the two.
"See? I'm still refining my mutations on the thugs." Said Shredder as he turned on the screen to reveal more mutants.
"This next batch will be infinitely superior to these two losers." Said Shredder as he turned and glared at Bebop and Rocksteady some feet behind him.
"Hey!" Yelled Bebop as he snorted.
"What do you mean?" Asked Bebop.
"You just give us another shot and you'll see some squished turtles!" Yelled Rocksteady.
"I'm surprised you guys can even shoot a gun." Said Adam as he sassed.
"Why are you wasting time on mutants?" Asked Krang as he demanded of Shredder.
"My stone warriors have amassed in Dimension X, waiting to overrun this world at my command." Said Krang as he showed a paper of his body.
"But I cannot let them see me like this." Said Krang as he was rubbing his forehead sheepishly.
"Dimension X!" Yelled Shredder as he realized.
"Of course, The Trans-Dimensional portal is already complete!" Yelled Shredder as he looks down at Krang.
"Your home dimension is a place of total war, is it not?" Asked Shredder as he was making sure.
"Yes!" Yelled/Replied Krang as he nearly shouted.
"A war that has been carried on without me since I was banished here." Said Krang.
"Then I will get the weaponry I need by pulling it through Dimension X!" Yelled Shredder as he declared while shaking his fist.
"No!" Yelled Krang as he suddenly cried.
"You can't!" Yelled Krang as he put his tentacles on his head.
"Call me crazy, but I agree with Brain Squid over here." Said Adam in agreement.
"But I must!" Yelled Shredder as he insisted.
"I, and I alone, must defeat my ancient enemy Hamato Yoshi and his wretched Turtles!" Yelled Shredder as he stomped off, dragging Kairu behind him.
"Saki!" Yelled Krang as he pleaded.
"Don't! There's no telling what might come through that portal!" Yelled Krang as he tried to follow Shredder.
"You know, if he's that desperate to stop you, then maybe it's a good idea to listen." Said Kairu as he suggested.
"Believe me; I don't like him about as much as I dislike you, but I know when someone's serious." Said Kairu.
"Nobody asked you!" Yelled Shredder as he snapped as he continued through the Technodrome.
Kairu groaned.
"Fine, have fun watching your plan fail for the fourth time." Said Kairu.
Shredder hardly listened.
Meanwhile at Baxter's garage
"Ah, finished." Said Donatello as he stepped out of the van.
"But the roof needs to be at least three feet higher, Donatello." Said Leonardo.
"Huh, why?" Asked Donatello.
Leonardo then took out his sword.
"So I can practice while we're driving." Said Leonardo as he swung his sword.
Michelangelo then looks at the van.
"All this gear and you left out the pizza oven." Said Michelangelo as he shrugged his shoulders.
Donatello went to the driver's side.
"Look guys, I put every weapon I could think of on this crate." Said Donatello.
He points to the back.
"All the surveillance gear I could find, this is as good as it gets." Said Donatello.
He went out of the van.
"Now do you want to find the Technodrome or not?" Asked Donatello.
"Yeah!" Yelled all three of the turtles.
They soon went inside the van.
"C'mon April, let's rev this baby up and motivate." Said Michelangelo as he and Donatello sit near her.
April then looks at him.
"Down the stairs?" Asked April.
"Relax April, we'll have gravity on our side." Replied Donatello.
"That's just what scares me." Said April as she starts the van.
"Seat belts everyone." Said April as she, Michelangelo and Donatello put on theirs.
"Pizza time!" Yelled Michelangelo as April dives the van down the stairs.
They soon went through the doors and to the road.
"Cowabunga!" Yelled Michelangelo.
Shredder arrived at the room for the Trans-Dimensional Portal and he started working the controls.
Bebop and Rocksteady arrived sooner after, each armed with a gun.
"Oh jeez, this is going to end so badly, and even I can't speculate what might happen when that portal opens." Thought Adam.
He soon glanced at the large screen-like side of the wall, most likely the portal.
"Wait. That's a trans-dimensional portal." Thought Adam he widen his eyes.
"In a moment, the gateway between Earth and Dimension X will be opened for the first time!" Yelled Shredder as he opened his arms and started working on the controls.
"This is not going to end well." Said Kairu muttered under his breath.
The screen began to glow and spark.
"All those weapons, guns from beyond our universe, will be mine!" Yelled Shredder as he laughed.
"Now, to gain the power of Dimension X!" Yelled Shredder as he opened his arms.
"Yee-ha!" Yelled a different voice.
"What the devil?!" Asked/Yelled Shredder.
Suddenly, something…no, two somethings, shot out from the portal and went zooming around the air, forcing Shredder, Rocksteady, and Bebop to duck to the ground.
Adam and Kairu stared, somewhat slack-jawed, at the two flying cars, one red and one blue, and the teenagers occupying them.
One teenager was a boy, driving the blue car, with dusty sky blue hair and wearing a strange yellow jumpsuit.
The other two teenagers were a boy and a girl.
The boy had purple and black hair, blue and yellow sunglasses, and a white and blue shirt with a high collar.
The girl had orange and pink hair and a green dress.
They looked human, until Adam and Kairu noticed the pointed, elf-like ears on the teens and heard their high-pitched, almost squeaky voices.
"Stop them!" Yelled Shredder as he ordered.
Bebop and Rocksteady responded by shooting their guns at the teenagers.
The teens, however, somehow managed to blast their way through the walls of the Technodrome and disappeared.
Bebop and Rocksteady continued to shoot at them.
"Well, that was interesting." Said Adam as he chuckled.
Suddenly, a larger, almost tank-like flying car came through the portal and went straight towards the hole the teenagers left.
They heard someone shout.
"After 'em!" Yelled a different voice.
They looked up to see two rock men in army helmets driving the car.
"Not so fast!" Yelled Rocksteady as he laughed as he and Bebop shot at the car.
"Bail out!" Yelled one of the rock men shouted as they jumped from the car.
Just in time, too; the car crashed into the Technodrome wall and exploded upon impact.
"Why does everything explode so easily in this dimension?" Asked Dylan as he murmured while Kyle shrugged.
"Boy, and I thought we were weird looking." Said Rocksteady.
He and Bebop approached the grey rock man and the brown rock man, guns aimed and ready to fire.
"Okay, Bebop, let's turn these rock faces into gravel!" Yelled Rocksteady as he and Bebop started shooting, but the rock men fired their own weapons right back.
The teenagers soon went through the wall.
"Nah, this place is dullsvile man, let's cut out." Said one of the teenagers as they went faster.
The turtles were still driving the van to see were the Technodrome was.
They soon got something.
"South East, April." Said Donatello.
"Roger, Dodger!" Yelled April as she went faster.
"He must have stopped the Technodrome, under the Global Trade Center." Said Donatello.
"That's one way to get a parking space." Said April.
The Technodrome soon had a hole blasted out.
The teenagers soon went through it.
They soon laughed.
"Go man, go!" Yelled one of the teenagers.
"Told ya this wouldn't end well." Said Adam as he told Shredder.
"Stop!" Yelled Shredder as he shouted, ignoring Adam's remark.
"Stop, Stop!" Yelled Shredder again.
Finally, the gun fight ceased.
"We was just starting to have fun." Said Rocksteady as he whined.
"Shut up!" Yelled Shredder as he snapped.
He turned to the rock men.
"You are Krang's stone warriors, are you not?" Asked Shredder.
"Yeah." Replied The brown rock man.
"So?" Asked the brown rock man.
"There is something I must show you." Said Shredder as he informed them.
"We've gotta catch those kids!" Yelled the brown rock man.
He and the grey rock man hurried out.
"So much for Thing 1 and Thing 2." Said Adam.
"I can only imagine where you get your attitude." Said Shredder as he sighed.
He pulled them along as he, Bebop, and Rocksteady followed the rock men through the Technodrome.
The turtles were getting closer to the Global Trade Centre.
"The Technodrome must be right under that tower." Said Donatello.
April then sees something.
"That subway is our only way down." Said April.
Just before she could drive it, the teenager's cars then came out.
They soon looked at them.
"Am I seeing things, or did we just get buzzed by a couple of rocket powered low riders?" Asked Raphael.
"You aren't seeing things." Replied April as she leaned closer.
"What strange plan is the Shredder hatching this time?" Asked Leonardo as he leaned forward.
"I don't know, but we better find out." Replied Donatello as he and Michelangelo leaned forward.
April soon drives to the Teenagers.
"Gun it April!" Yelled Michelangelo.
Meanwhile the rock men were still looking for the teenagers.
"Those kids have got to be here somewhere." Said the brown rock man.
They soon ran into a room where Krang was.
"Traag!" Yelled Krang.
"They couldn't have just vanished." Said Traag.
They soon looked down.
"Oh, sorry lord." Said Traag.
They soon shook their heads.
"Lord Krang!" Yelled Traag.
They soon bowed.
They soon looked at him.
"Don't look at me!" Yelled Krang as he covered himself.
They soon looked away.
"My lord, what has happened to your body?" Asked Traag.
"It's a long story, I lost it when they banished me to this miserable mud ball." Replied Krang.
Shredder and the others caught up, the rock men already reached Krang.
"Those three youths just blasted their way out of my Technodrome!" Yelled Shredder as he snapped.
"The Neutrinos have eluded us!" Yelled the gray rock man as he groaned.
"Neutrinos?" Krang repeated.
"Running loose here on Earth? Saki, you imbecile! Why I oughtta—" Yelled Krang as he was cut off by Shredder.
"What did I do?" Asked Shredder.
"Who are these Neutrinos?" Asked Shredder.
"A gang of juvenile delinquents from Dimension X." Replied Krang.
"They're a threat to everything we stand for." Said Krang.
"They hate war." Said Traag as he gasped.
"They refuse to join any army!" Said The gray rock man.
"And what's worse: they encourage people to have fun!" Yelled Krang as he groaned.
"They sound like normal teenagers to me." Said Adam as he shrugged.
"We have expectations in Dimension X, boy." Said Krang.
"And the Neutrinos constantly try to stop everything we do!" Yelled Krang as he clenched his tentacles.
"Well, you guys fight a lot." Said Adam.
"If you look at it from the Neutrinos' side, isn't war a bad thing?" Asked Adam.
"It only gets people killed." Said Adam.
"You wouldn't understand." Said Krang as he waved him off.
"This is Dimension X we're talking about." Said Krang.
Adam rolled his eyes.
"Whatever." Said Adam.
"General Traag! Granitor!" Yelled Krang as he snapped at the rock men.
"You two must find the Neutrinos! Destroy them!" Yelled Krang.
"Yes sir!" Yelled the humanoid rock duo saluted to their lord and hurried off.
Adam and Kairu then rolled their eyes.
I don't know how much longer I can handle this. Thought Adam.
Well, maybe the guys will find the Neutrinos and they can help defeat Shredder." Thought Kairu.
They gave a small tug to their bonds.
"Meanwhile, we should figure out how we're getting out of this." Thought Adam.
The Neutrinos were flying around the buildings.
The van had trouble catching up to them.
"Uh, their heading south, no, no, north, uh, their heading south and north." Said Donatello as he had trouble finding them.
One of the Neutrinos was laughing.
"Daddy-o, this is one unheped primitive society." Said one of the Neutrinos.
The female Neutrino then leaned back and put her arms behind her head.
"Yeah, I bet they don't have Gyro Burgers." Said the female Neutrino.
"And they probably never even heard of Asteroid Pinball." Said the other male Neutrino.
The turtles were trying to figure out their movement.
"Our only chance is to get ahead of them is by analyzing the pattern of where they've been." Said Leonardo as he and the other were looking at the screen of blue and red lines.
"You can make a pattern of all that?" Asked Raphael.
We can cut them off right here." Said Leonardo as he pointed in the alleyway.
Meanwhile in the Technodrome
Traag and the other stone warrior then entered a tank.
"Take the Techno Rover, it's the most heavily armed vehicle we have." Said Shredder.
"All right, let's get those kids." Said the other stone warrior as Traag started driving the Techno Rover.
The van was catching up to the Neutrinos.
"Here they come!" Yelled Donatello.
"Activate Turtle Launcher!" Yelled Donatello as the roof of the van opened and the turtles jumped out.
"Cowabunga!" Yelled Michelangelo.
"Okay buddy!" Yelled Raphael as he and Donatello jumped to the blue car.
"Pull over!" Yelled Raphael.
"Book em, Donno." Said Raphael as he and Donatello started struggling with the two Neutrinos.
"I'm trying, I'm trying!" Yelled Donatello.
Leonardo and Michelangelo then jumped over to the passenger side of red car.
"Split squares!" Yelled the Neutrino as seat then pushed Leonardo and Michelangelo out.
They were soon holding onto the chair.
"Scratch one turtle." Said the other Neutrino as pushed the blue car's side were Donatello was into a building.
"Hey watch it!" Yelled Donatello as his shell was scratched to the building and sparks came out.
"Your ruining my furnish!" Yelled Donatello.
Raphael soon put his Sai to the steering wheel and pulled the car to it's side.
He soon grabbed the female Neutrino.
"Okay sister, move to the rear." Said Raphael as he placed the female Neutrino to the back of the car.
Donatello soon grabbed the other Neutrino.
"Let me go, you cube!" Yelled the other Neutrino as he was placed in the back with the female Neutrino.
Leonardo and Michelangelo were climbing down the seat.
"We must capture the pilot, and force him to land." Said Leonardo.
"Yeah, with what?" Asked Michelangelo.
"With my elbow pad." Replied Leonardo.
Leonardo soon jumped down and blinded the Neutrino.
"Hey, I can't see!" Yelled the Neutrino.
The car was soon going straight down.
"We're crashin'!" Yelled Michelangelo.
"Hold the stick up, Michelangelo." Said Leonardo.
Michelangelo then grabbed the wheel.
They managed to reach the ground with minimal damage.
They finally stopped when Raphael and Donatello put the other one to the ground safely.
"Ah, look what they did to my shell." Said Donatello as he got out their car and looked at his damaged shell.
Michelangelo then walked up to him.
"Ah, keep cool, a little wax and it'll shine like new." Said Michelangelo as he rubbed the wax to Donatello's shell.
"Shredder must really be desperate, if he's throwing geeks like you at us." Said Raphael.
"The who?" Asked one of the Neutrinos.
"Don't tell us, you've never heard of the Shredder?" Asked Donatello in surprise.
"Dig cats, One minute we're having a blast in Dimension X, and suddenly some weirdo with a metal mask." Replied the Neutrino.
"Hold the phone, I think we're all in the same side." Said Raphael.
April catches up to them.
She soon stepped out.
"You got 'em!" Yelled April as she ran towards them.
"Who are they?" Asked April as she pointed at the Neutrinos.
"Let's interrogate them!" Yelled April.
Michelangelo then held his hands up.
"Relax April, they're cool." Said Michelangelo.
One of the Neutrinos then looked at him.
"Cool? Daddy-o, we are frozen!" Yelled the Neutrino.
"Why is it, I never understand, what's going on?" Asked April
Soon the turtles entered an arcade store.
"We sure are getting some weird characters in here, Louise." Said the clown on the counter.
"What'd you expect in this crazy pad?" Asked Louise.
"Man oh man, this is the swigamentz!" Yelled the silver haired Neutrino as he laughed as his pinball machine scores rose.
"We didn't think you cats knew how to have fun!" Yelled the female Neutrino as she laughed.
"Yeah." Said the purple Neutrino as he agreed.
"We thought this was the planet of squares, man." Said the purple Neutrino.
"Will somebody fill me in on what's going on?" Asked April as she pleaded.
"What is this Dimension X?" Asked April.
"It's Grimsville." Said the purple Neutrino as he sighed.
"All the grown-ups ever do is fight!" Yelled the silver Neutrino.
"Us Neutrinos are the only ones that like having fun." Said the female Neutrino as she explained.
"And most of the time the grown-ups won't let us!" Yelled the female Neutrino as the others looks sad.
"They say it gets in the way of their stupid war!" Yelled the silver Neutrino as he growled.
"That's how we wound up here!" Yelled the purple Neutrino.
"Some soldiers were after us just because we were driving through their dumb old battlefield." Said the purple Neutrino.
"You don't know what it's like." Said the female Neutrino as she sniffed.
"Living in a place where everybody wants to do you in, just for the crime of being young!" Yelled the female Neutrino as she started crying.
"Aw, don't cry Kala." Said Donatello as he soothed.
"Hey, we won't let anyone hurt you here." Said Michelangelo as he assured.
"I'm worried." Said April.
"About what, April?" Asked Donatello in confusion.
"I'm worried about what else might have come to our world from Dimension—" Said April when a loud blast interrupted April's statement, and they all whipped around just in time to duck from two tiny missiles shot at them.
"All right you Neutrinos!" Yelled Traag as his voice called from outside.
"Come out fighting!" Yelled Trag as he and the other stone warrior were holding their guns.
"Who are they?" Asked Donatello as he and his brothers drew their weapons.
"Stone warriors from Dimension X." Said the silver Neutrino as he warned.
"They're bad!" Yelled the silver Neutrino.
"Yeah, I guessed that." Said Raphael as he droned while twirling his Sais.
"You got any weapons on those hot rods?" Asked Raphael as he pointed his Sais
"Of course!" Said the silver Neutrino as though it were obvious.
"They're required by law!" Yelled the silver Neutrino.
"We said we wouldn't let anyone hurt you and we mean it!" Yelled Leonardo as he told the Neutrinos.
"Come on!" Yelled Leonardo.
They hurried from the shop, dodging blasts as they all jumped into their respective cars and drove off.
But the two rock soldiers wasted no time in giving a chase.
The Neutrinos dive bombed the tank the soldiers rode, firing their lasers.
The Turtles fired their lasers, but the rock soldiers fired more missiles, forcing April to swerve and jerk the van around to avoid them.
"Gun it, April!" Yelled Michelangelo.
They soon drove while the Neutrinos started their cars.
"Look at 'em, run!" Yelled Traag.
The van soon turned around.
"Activate the confirm kill cannon." Said Traag as the tank was driving towards them.
"Ready aim!" Yelled Traag as he looked closer at the controls.
The Neutrinos soon fired the lasers rifles at them.
The Techno Rover soon halted.
Raphael soon came out of the side of the van with some kind of weapon.
"Eat hot lead, turkeys!" Yelled Raphael as he started firing lasers at the Techno Rover.
April soon turned over to van which caused them to miss the missile that Tragg fired.
"Slick driving, April!" Yelled Donatello as he complimented with a smile.
"Now take us alongside it!" Yelled Donatello.
Leonardo pushed the other side door out and jumped onto it, pulling out one of his katanas.
He sliced his blade at the most precise moment, slashing through the tires on the tank and forcing it to an abrupt halt.
"We'll take 'em on foot!" Yelled Traag as he and the other stone warrior got out.
"Dibsy shootin', head cats!" Yelled the silver Neutrino as he complimented.
"Let's go back and eradicate them!" Yelled Raphael as he urged.
"Uh oh cats and kittens." Said the purple Neutrino as he gulped.
"You dig what I dig?" Asked the purple Neutrino.
Everyone turned as sirens blared from down the street, and police cars and a few tanks shot from around the corner.
"Find all those creatures and take them down!" Yelled someone In a tank.
"Ah, some dirty rat must have squealed the coppers about us, yeah." Said Raphael as he was impersonating mobster.
"Don't those squares know you're on their side?" Asked the silver Neutrino.
"Nah, humans don't know nothing when it comes to turtles." Replied Michelangelo as he sighed.
April cleared her throat, and the orange banded turtle chuckled.
"Present company accepted." Said Michelangelo
"Has anyone stopped to think why the Shredder has a pipe line to an entirely different dimension?" Asked Leonardo as he pointed out.
Donatello then rubbed his chin.
"Those stone warriors could just be the beginning!" Yelled Donatello as he realized.
"We must consult with Master Splinter before taking further action." Said Leonardo as he went inside the van..
"Neutrinos, follow us." Said Donatello.
The van soon drove into an allyway with the Neutrinos.
"Sewers, here we come!" Yelled Raphael as he laughed.
The police continued driving towards to stone warriors.
Traag and the other stone warrior then stopped and looked at the cars.
"We must fight our way through them and find the Neutrinos." Said the other rock warrior to Traag.
Traag then pulled something out of his pocket.
"This weather satellite will take care of them and the Neutrinos." Said Traag.
"But we don't need to know what the weather is." Said the other stone warrior.
"This doesn't report weather you idiot, it makes weather it's Krang's old design." Said Traag.
He soon turns the dial that says: Fair With High Clouds.
"Fair With High Clouds, Mild Showers, aha!" Yelled Traag as turned the dial one last time.
"Total Chaos!" Yelled Traag.
"Within two hours, the weather it create will stomp the city flat." Said Traag as the weather creator moves to the sky.
"To the Technodrome!" Yelled Traag as he and the other stone warrior walked back while the weather creator moves even further to the sky.
Soon the sky turned yellow.
The cars went past the stone warriors.
"We must get back to the Technodrome, those Neutrinos could attack Lord Krang at any moment." Said the other stone warrior.
"Yes, and the weather maker will soon turn this place apart." Said Traag.
"Let us commandeer that ground vehicle." Said Traag as he and the other stone warrior ran towards the car.
They soon went in and try to get the car to work.
"How do you engage the hyper drive on this thing?" Asked Traag as he pushed some buttons.
Soon a light shined on them.
"Okay you, out of the Truck!" Yelled a police officer as they surrounded the rock soldiers.
They held their weapons to them.
Traag and the other Rock Soldier left the truck.
"Fire!" Yelled an officer as they started fireing their weapons at the Rock Solders.
Nothing effected on them.
"The bullets aren't stopping them." Said the officer.
Traag then looked at the other Rock Solder.
"We must get to Krang before those brats do." Said Traag as the other rock solder nodded.
They soon left.
"We're in position." Said Shredder as he looks at Krang.
"I don't see how moving the Technodrome is going to help." Said Kairu as he pointed out.
"The Turtles will find you sooner or later." Said Kairu with a smirk.
"I certainly hope so!" Yelled Shredder as he chuckled and as he and Krang walked off.
"So that we can blast them to pieces!" Yelled Shredder as he chuckled once more.
"What you failed to realize, boy, is that we have quite the talent for setting traps." Said Krang as he chuckled as the door shut behind him.
Kairu's eyes widened.
"Oh no, the guys!" Said Kairu.
He started tugging at his bonds again.
"Oh come on! I got to get out of here!" Yelled Kairu.
But no matter how much he tried, he couldn't pull free from his bonds.
"Oh this is so, so bad." Said Kairu as Adam groaned.
"So, tell us more about these stone warriors." Asked Splinter.
"They only obey their leader." Replied the silver haired Neutrino.
"A guy named Krang." Said the silver Neutrino.
"Who is this Krang?" Asked Leonardo.
"The supreme warlord of Dimension X, man." Replied the silver Neutrino.
"Only he got exiled to another universe." Said the silver Neutrino.
"And his body got split, man." Said the purple haired Neutrino as he added.
"And now he's just this way out brain." Said the purple Neutrino.
"You said you saw some kind of brain when we were fighting the Mousers yesterday, Michelangelo." Said Leonardo.
"Oh you bet your sweet shell I did!" Yelled Michelangelo as he nodded.
"And Kairu said he saw him to." Said Donatello in realization.
"So that is where the Shredder has been getting his advanced technology." Said Splinter as he realized.
"To build the means back to his home dimension." Said Splinter.
"How many of those stone warriors does Krang have in Dimension X?" Asked Donatello as he looks at the Neutrinos.
"Like zillions, man." Said the purple Neutrino.
April gasped.
"Then, he's going to bring them here and conquer our universe!" Yelled April.
"Neutrinos, we have got to stop Krang!" Yelled the silver Neutrino as he picked up Kala.
"Turtles, we gotta help 'em do it!" Yelled Raphael as he added.
"Great, but how?" Asked April.
"We find this freak and push him back through the portal to Dimension X." Said Raphael simply.
"Don't worry Kala, we won't let anything happen to you." Said Michelangelo.
"We'll protect you from Krang, Shredder, and the rock soldiers!" Yelled Leonardo as he affirmed.
"What about the Shredder dude's weird pets?" Asked the silver Neutrino worriedly.
"Bebop and Rocksteady?" Asked Raphael clarified.
The silver Neutrino nodded.
"No problem." Said Raphael as he scoffed.
"Yeah, but what about the small one he keeps on that chain?" Asked the purple Neutrino.
"Chain?" Asked Donatello.
The turtles soon looked at each other.
"What are you talking about?" Asked Donatello.
"When we first came through the portal, man, we saw that Shredder guy with these two ugly guys and two boys."
"You said they were chained up?" Asked Leonardo hurriedly.
"Yeah." Said Kala as she shrugged.
"We didn't get a very good look, but they looked kind of like a Neutrino without the pointed ears." Said Kala as she pointed to her ears
The Turtles, Splinter, and April exchanged surprised glances.
"You don't think…?" Asked Michelangelo as he breathed.
"You four must hurry if you are to help the Neutrinos." Said Splinter as he urged.
"It is very possible that you will find Kairu and Adam there at the Technodrome as well." Said Splinter with a bit of hope in his eyes that his boy is still alive.
They soon went up to the phone box and saw the entire city in snow.
"All right, snow!" Yelled Michlangelo as he was excited like a child.
"Yeah, but in the middle of June?" Asked April in confusion.
Soon giant ice cubes began falling from the sky.
"We sure are having a lot of weather." Said Donatello as he went inside the Van.
"It's gotta be a Stone Warrior Weather Generator." Said the silver Neutrino as he looked around.
"Look!" Yelled the silver Neutrino as he pointed at the sky where the Ice Cubes were falling from.
"Let's hall tail over to the Technodrome, before the Monsoon Season starts." Said Raphael.
The van and the cars started driving.
They soon went underground and found the Technodrome.
The turtles and April got out of the van.
"We'll never get the van up there." Said Donatello as he rubbed his chin.
"April, stay here." Said Donatello.
April groaned.
"Again?!" Asked/Yelled April.
The Neutrinos flew their cars to the hole they blasted earlier and went inside the Technodrome.
They soon entered the portal room.
"Dig cats, the Dimensional Portal." Said the purple Neutrino.
The cars then went down and the turtles got out.
Donatello and Leonardo ran towards the controls.
"Donatello, try to figure out how to work this thing, I'll cover you." Said Leonardo.
Donatello then tried to work the controls while Leonardo was watching.
They soon heard a door opening and saw Bebop, Rocksteady and a few Foot Solders.
"Just what we needed, company." Groaned Donatello.
"That's what your gonna get." Said Bebop.
"A pounding." Said Bebop as he raised his fists.
Meanwhile the Neutrinos, Raphael and Michelangelo were soon flying the car.
"I'm getting some way out life readings ahead." Said the silver Neutrino.
Soon laser beams came as they came through the door.
"There he is!" Yelled Michelangelo as he saw Krang and the Rock Solders.
"He's the brains of this operation!" Yelled Michelangelo.
The rock soldiers continued firing while Krang was bouncing on his seat and laughing.
Soon fired green lasers at them.
Meanwhile in the other room while Donatello was working on the portal, the foot soldiers went closer to them.
Leonardo draw out his swords.
"Can you hold them off?" Asked Donatello.
"There's only eight of them." Replied Leonardo as he ran towards them.
While fighting them he was grabbed in the neck by Bebop.
"Gotcha ya shell brains." Said Bebop as he threw Leonardo to the ground.
"Ah, let's see what this one does." Said Donatello as he pressed a button on a circle.
Soon a panel of the floor where Bebop and Rocksteady was on disappeared and went straight down.
Meanwhile the car was still dodging the lasers.
Soon it turned around, Michelangelo and Raphael got out.
"Cowabunga!" Yelled Michelangelo.
They soon ran up towards Krang and the others but was stopped by a force field.
The other rock solder was firing his lasers.
Michelangelo and Donatello managed to doge them.
They soon went back to the car.
"It's no good, we'll never get Krang, past that force field!" Yelled the silver Neutrino.
"We better scram." Said Raphael.
The rock soldiers then walked down the stairs.
"Excellent work, Traag, I'm going to put a pin on you, as soon as I get a pair of hands." Said Krang.
Meanwhile Kairu and Adam kept struggling, desperate to get free to warn their friends.
But no matter what they did, they couldn't free themselves.
Adam's anger didn't help; it only made things more and more hopeless.
Finally, Adam sighed and slumped down.
It's hopeless, all I can do is sit here, what kind of friend am I if I can't get myself or even Kairu free? Thought Adam.
Adam glanced at a screen nearby and did a double-take when he noticed his reflection.
He saw the white cloth bandana Splinter tied around his forehead remained, resting right under his hair.
His words echoed in his head.
I sense much darkness and pain within you, meditate with me, perhaps some peacefulness will calm you.
Adam took a deep breath, in through his nose and out through his mouth.
He closed his eyes, focusing only on what would make him calm and content.
He then noticed Kairu took something out.
"What are you doing?" Asked Adam in confusion.
"Dad always told me, 'A ninja is always prepared'." Replied Kairu as he pulled a pin out and put it on his lock.
A few moments later the lock came out and Kairu was free.
"Success." Said Kairu as he ran towards the table and grabbed one of his Tantos.
He soon ran towards Adam and sliced off his chains.
"Let's get out of here." Said Kairu .
Adam then nodded.
They soon ran out the door and heard something.
"Kairu, Adam!" Yelled Michelangelo.
They looked up and smiled as they saw Michelangelo and Raphael with the Neutrinos.
"Hey guys!" Yelled Kairu.
"You're alive!" Yelled Michelangelo as he cheered.
"I knew it!" Yelled Raphael.
"Hang on!" Yelled Kala as the car swooped down.
Kairu and Adam leaped up and landed in the seat as the car flew out of the room.
"You have no idea how happy I am to see you!" Yelled Raphael as he was hugging Kyle tightly.
Suddenly, he turned red and let go.
"I mean, how happy we are to see you." Said Raphael as he cleared his throat.
Kairu and Adam then laughed.
"It's great to see you guys too, where are Leonardo and Donatello?" Asked Kairu as he looked around.
"Working the portal, man." Replied the silver Neutrino.
"That Donatello dude really knows how to work machines!" Yelled the silver Neutrino.
Adam blinked, his response is delayed because of the teenager's fast-paced speak.
"Good, the portal can get these guys home." Said Adam.
"Really?" Asked Raphael.
"Then let's hurry man!" Yelled the purple Neutrino.
He then was slamming on the gas and forcing everyone backwards a little.
They zipped through the tunnels of the Technodrome, on the way to the Trans-Dimensional Portal.
They shot through the door to see Donatello at the Portal's controls and Leonardo fighting the Foot Robots.
"Let's take them, Leonardo!" Yelled Michelangelo.
He, Raphael, Adam and Kairu then leaped from the car and charged, weapons drawn.
They battled it out with the soldiers, their weapons clashing with the Foot's guns.
Adam drew a kunai he stole from the lair in each hand and stabbed them into any Foot Ninja that came too close.
Kairu then slashed the foot Ninjas with his tantos.
"The dimensional portal's open!" Yelled Donatello as he finally opened the Portal.
"Great!" Yelled Michelangelo as he cheered.
"Now to get those rock heads in there!" Yelled Michelangelo as he charged for General Traag and the other rock soldeirs, but General Traag only swatted him aside.
"Michelangelo!" Yelled Donatello as he gasped worriedly.
"Nobody hits my friends but me!" Yelled Kairu as he snapped, leaping up towards the rock men.
Despite the pain it caused in his feet, the kicked each rock man in the face, forcing them to stumble back.
But when Kairu landed, his feet slipped out from under him when they touched lubricant instead of the floor.
Raphael caught him and carefully pulled him from the path of the rock men and Michelangelo and Donatello pushed them into the portal to Dimension X.
Krang and Shredder were watching and looked at each other before walking away in different directions.
"Okay, Neutrinos, it's your turn!" Yelled Donatello.
"But-but…we want to stay with you!" Yelled Kala as she pleaded.
"And have fun!" Yelled Kala.
"I can't hold this thing open forever!" Yelled Donatello as he was frantically pressed buttons on the control box.
"And it's your only ticket home!" Yelled Donatello.
"He's right." Said the silver Neutrino.
"We can't stay here, and we got to carry on the fight against Krang in Dimension X." Said the silver Neutrino.
"Goodbye you crazy turtles." Said Kala sadly.
"We'll miss you." Said Kala.
The silver Neutrino then punched the gas and they sped off into the portal.
"We'll miss you too." Said Michelangelo as he sighed.
Adam turned and gasped.
"Um, guys? We got a problem!" Yelled Adam.
The four turtles and human turned to see Shredder appeared, ready to fight.
"Okay, Shredder!" Yelled Raphael as he twirled his sais.
"This is it!" Yelled Raphael as he pointed his sai at Shredder.
But suddenly, the floor began to rumble and shake.
The dimensional portal started sparking and flashing.
"Guys, what's happening?" Asked Kairu worriedly.
"Huh, looks like it's not." Said Raphael as he sighed.
"The weather maker!" Yelled Donatello as he realized.
"We must head up and stop it!" Yelled Leonardo as he urged.
"Stop what?" Asked Adam.
"After we stop the Shredder!" Yelled Michelangelo as he insisted.
But when they turned back, Shredder disappeared.
"That crummy coward, he split!" Yelled Michelangelo
"Worry about it later." Said Raphael.
"We gotta save the city!" Yelled Raphael.
"Save the city from what?" Asked Kairu as they ran.
But they soon got their answer when they jumped into the blue Neutrino car and flew off into a stormy New York City.
"That thing will blow the whole city clear to Oz unless we stop it!" Yelled Raphael over the winds.
"How do we stop a storm?!" Asked/Yelled Kairu.
"It's being controlled by a Dimension X device!" Yelled/Replied Donatello as he explained.
"There it is!" Yelled Leonardo as he pointed to a small metal object high in the air.
Donatello started firing lasers, but they whizzed right by the device.
"I can't get a clear shot!" Yelled Donatello as he grunted as the winds pushed the car this way and that.
"I could try a shuriken or kunai but the wind will knock them away!" Yelled Kairu as he clutched his seat tightly.
"What do we do?" Asked Adam.
"I'll handle it!" Yelled Leonardo as he drew his katana and leaped from the car, much to his sibling's and friend's horror.
He sliced through the spherical device, causing the storm to immediately clear up to starry skies.
But he also started falling towards the pavement until Donatello could swoop in and catch him.
"Way to go, Leonardo!" Yelled Michelangelo as he cheered.
"Yeah!" Yelled Raphael as he laughed.
"Everybody complains about the weather but you actually did something about it!" Yelled Raphael.
Soon Shredder then entered to room where Krang was.
"All right Krang, the turtles must be stopped, at any cost." Said Shredder.
"So I shall complete your new body." Said Shredder as he hated the idea.
"You must destroy them for me." Said Shredder.
"I'm glad to see you finally come to your senses." Said Krang.
Soon Krang laughed.
Soon the three turtles were in their bed with April beside them.
"And as he crossed the finish line, the tortoise realized that slow and steady does wins the race, for he had beaten the hare." Said April as she closed the book.
Raphael moaned and held his sai closer.
"I love that story." Said Raphael.
"Read it again, April." Said Michelangelo.
"But I've read it five time." Said April.
"Just once more." Said Donatello before he snored.
April soon backed away.
She soon giggled as Leoanrdo came in with a sword in his hand.
"Just a bunch of sleepy heads." Said April as she shook her head.
"They'll need their rest, because tomorrow, we're gonna find the Shredder and finish him." Said Leonardo as he put the sword away.
Splinter passed his turtles' room and heard April and Leonardo conversation while listening the Turtle's snoring.
He smiled and chuckled softly while shaking his head.
He moved on, discovering Adam and Kairu in the living room, sitting on the couch and sketching in their notepad.
He took two blankets from the backrest of the couch and draped it over their shoulders.
They looked up and smiled, pulling the blankets farther around them.
"I am very happy to see you two safe." Said Splinter as he smiled.
"We were all very worried about you." Said Splinter as he put his hand on Kairu's shoulder.
"Thanks." Said Kairu softly.
"It's good to, you know, not be chained to a chair anymore." Said Kairu as he slowly went to sleep.
Splinter chuckled.
"Well, I hope you will be about to join us soon when we face Shredder again." Said Splinter to Adam.
"Absolutely." Said Adam as he nodded.
Hopefully defeating Shredder is what takes him to leave this Dimension.
