Hey, guys! Calmoose here! I just wanted to let you know that some of the things in the Star Wars universe will be changed since this is an au. So no flames please!
Chapter 3: The weird world of Wyrm
It was a dark starry night in a small man-made dojo as the Turtles dropped down from the ceiling, drawing their weapons. They were not wearing their space suits and bore their traditional weapons as opposed to the more advanced ones the Fugitoid gave them.
The Turtles circled up, their eyes now white slits and they gazed around the empty dojo.
"I don't know. Looks empty, guys." Raphael said quietly.
Leonardo held his katana out in front of him, "We're not alone here. I can feel it." He replied.
Just then, before anyone could react, a certain mutant zoomed across them, snatching Raph in his claws and slamming him into the trophy case on one side of the room.
"Rahzar!" Leo exclaimed as the zombie wolf mutant threw Raph across the room, laughing as he brandished his claws.
Raph quickly landed on his hands and flipped onto his feet as he landed. Just as he drew his sais, he noticed a large bulky shadow looming over him.
"That makes two of us!" A voice almost identical to Rahzar's said as Raph quickly jumped out of the way of a giant fist that nearly smashed him into the ground.
"Dogpound?" Donnie questioned in surprise as he saw the big bulky dog that was Rahzar's previous form.
As Raph stood up, he looked behind him to see the silhouette of a big muscular man behind a shoji screen door.
"Chris Bradofrd fact number forty-eight," The silhouette began, "Chris Bradford always carries around four weapons of mass destruction." Before Raph could react, he was quickly assaulted by several hard punches and kicks to his body, knocking him down. "His arms and his legs." The silhouette finished.
"Aw, snap! Chris Bradford!" Mikey exclaimed as Bradford, Dogpound, and Rahzar all gathered together.
"Wow! All three of them at the same time!" Donnie said before his face split into a nerdy grin. "This is so rad!"
Rahzar lunged at the Turtles with a loud roar, forcing them to disperse as Leo blocked his claws with his katanas.
"Bring it, Dogpound!" Raph challenged as he ran up, swinging his sais at the hulking mutant dog who blocked his swings with his larger fist. Dogpound then grabbed Raph with his giant fist and slammed him on the floor, pinning him down.
"Booyakasha!" Mikey shouted as he jumped up, trying to hit Bradford with with a flying kick. But Bradford blocked the kick with both of his arms before he punched Mikey in the gut and then nailed him with a sharp uppercut as he leapt into the air and knocked Mikey away with a strong round-house kick.
"Don't hold back, guys!" Leo told them, pushing Rahzar off him and rolling under the zombie wolf as he avoided a swipe from Rahzar's claws. He then jumped up into the air and sliced Rahzar across the chest, causing the zombie wolf to fall limp onto the ground.
Donnie whacked Dogpound in the head before sweeping at his feet, causing the bulky mutant dog to stumble back as Raph jumped on top of Donnie's shell and impaled Dogpound's head with his sais, causing the large mutant dog to collapse on the ground.
Mikey dashed at Bradford, ducking under a round-house kick and jumping over a sweep kick before turning his back just in time as Bradford hit Mikey's shell with a punch. Bradford cried out in pain as he held his aching hand, giving Mikey the chance he needed as he jumped up and finished Bradford with a hard drop-kick.
"Bradford's out!" Mikey cheered in victory.
The Turtles each breathed out sighs of satisfaction and put their weapons away as they as Rahzar's, Dogpund's, and Bradford's bodies all faded away in a blue grid-like pattern.
"Not bad for holograms." Raph commented as the dojo faded away in the same manner, revealing to be nothing more than the Fugitoid's training deck.
"Pretty cool, right?" April said as the Turtles left the training room and greeted her, Casey and Fugitoid. "Three Bradford's for the price of one holo-trainer."
"It was incredible, April!" Donnie exclaimed excitedly as the four turtles sat down on some nearby benches. "Solid holograms! Ingenious!"
"Eh, it was a little soft." Raph shrugged as he stretched his arm a bit. "Maybe you could dial it up a bit next time."
"I can program a rematch where your opponents break bones, if you would like, Raphael." Fugitoid offered.
Raph's eyes widened slightly as he blinked once. "Eh.. next time." He said as walked towards the benches.
Meanwhile, Mikey and Casey were at a capsule-like device at the end of the room as a small opening came out from the top and a suction-cup-like device attached itself to Casey's forehead.
"My mighty mental powers command: a giant, double-meat, all-meat, burger meal!" Casey said, closing his eyes in concentration.
A small panel on the capsule device opened with a small ding, revealing a large hamburger with three meat patties, lettuce, melted cheese, tomatoes, onions, and mayonnaise on it with a side of French fries, chicken nuggets, and a soda.
Mikey gasped in wonder, "Dude, I love the think-a-food-machine! It's like way less than thirty-minutes-or-less!" Mikey said happily as he sat down and let one of the suction cups attach to his head. He then began to 'think' his own food just like Casey did. However, what resulted when the panel opened was something that looked like a pile of hot moldy food mixed with raw sewage.
That didn't stop Mikey from eating it nonetheless as he immediately began to gobble it down.
Casey looked over and cringed in disgust, "Ugh, what is wrong with you, Mikey?" He asked in disgust.
Honeycutt walked over to Leo, who seemed lost in thought as he was sitting down on one of the benches.
"And were you satisfied with the holo-training session, Leonardo?" Fugitoid asked.
"Yeah, Fugitoid, it was cool and all." Leo replied before changing to a more important subject. "It's just... we have six months to find the pieces of the black hole device before the triceratons find them. Are we still tracking the mother ship?"
Fugitoid remained silent and he blinked a few times as he didn't respond to Leo's question. "... Okay, okay! Big oops!" Honeycutt cried, looking quite nervous. "I may have... possibly... lost the triceratons."
That caused the group to either gasp in fear or look in anger as Fugitoid cowered beneath them.
"What?! You lost them?!" Casey questioned. "What kind of cyborg are you?!"
However, the group's attention was quickly diverted as a series of alarms went off in the ship.
"A distress signal!" Donnie exclaimed.
In less than a few minutes, the group ran to the bridge and they each took their respective stations as they caught view of the source of the signal.
Just in the middle of a small asteroid field was a large triangular shaped starship with some red highlights on it. The giant ship was completely broken in half, with parts of scrap metal floating out of it.
"Is it the Triceratons?" April asked.
"No, I don't believe so." Fugitoid replied as his scanners zoomed in on the ship. "The distress call is coming from this ship."
"Are there any survivors?" Leo asked.
"Hard to tell." Donnie answered as he worked at his station. "I'm getting a lot of strange interference. Most likely coming the asteroids."
"Alright then, everyone gear up." Leo ordered. "We're getting a closer look."
"Space rescue mission? That is so heavy metal!" Casey cheered before playing an air-guitar.
After getting their space-suits on, Leo led Raph, Donnie, Mikey, April, and Casey into the asteroid field towards the derelict ship. Since the asteroid field was too dense for the Ulixies to enter, the group had to hover there on foot. Of course, Fugitoid warned them about avoiding large asteroids and space slugs, which the group took into account.
As the group approached the ship, they were quite astonished by how massive it was. The cruiser was at least ten times bigger than Ulixies! As of such, it wasn't hard at all to get into the cruiser considering there was a large hole left in it from being split in half.
"Look at the size of this thing." Leo said in slight amazement as they hovered into the ship, activating their gravity-boosters and magnetizing down on the metal floor. "You think the asteroids did this?"
"Damage like this? I don't think so." Donnie replied as he took out his scanner/staff and began to scan the room. "It looks the hole was blasted from the inside out. Weird."
"How odd indeed." Fugitoid said via their radio comms. "This starship is a consular-class republic cruiser, used by the old Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars. It would take more then a few asteroids and perhaps a few dozen explosives to carve one of these in half."
"Well, maybe their deflector shields weren't working. Or they were attacked from the inside." Raph guessed. "Or maybe the crew did it."
Just as he said that, Raph accidentally walked into a floating white armored suit, containing a rotting dead body inside it. Raph yelped in shock and staggered back as everyone looked up, only to be horrified when they saw a large assortment of dead bodies, all wearing the same white armor.
"Are... are these guys all...?" Mikey stuttered fearfully.
"Yeah... I think so." Leo replied, both frightened and sad at all those who lost their lives on this ship.
"Sadly, there's no one left." Honeycutt told them solemnly. "Scanners are not detecting any life onboard that ship."
"So eerie." April shivered, holding her arms as the group walked deeper into the ship, their only light source being the flashlights built into their helmets. "It's like a horror movie waiting to happen. And I don't have to be psychic to get a bad feeling about this place."
Casey suddenly floated past the group, his arms folded behind his head as he floated on his back. "I have a bad feeling too." He began. "Like this is totally boring! I wish something not boring would happen!"
Right as he said that, Casey saw a faint blue glow coming from the end of the hallway. His curiosity overtaking him, Casey floated towards the glowing light as the others were distracted by Mikey.
"I got it!" Mikey exclaimed as he pumped his fists. "I bet they blew up the ship because of squirrelanoids!"
"Really, Mikey?" Donnie questioned as he slapped his hand on his helmet. "I mean, really?!"
"An idea so stupid it makes my head want to blow up!" Raph said in agreement.
"What is up with you and squirrels, Mikey?" Leo questioned in annoyance.
As they talked, Casey floated to the end of the hallway before activating his gravity-boosters, finding that the source of the glowing light was a large cube shaped object emitting a faint ocean blue glow.
"What's this?" Casey muttered to himself as he slowly grabbed the cube and gazed at it in his hands, looking almost entranced by it's glow.
Just then, Casey suddenly felt a hand grab his shoulder, and he yelped in alarm as he spun around to see April and the Turtles gathered around him.
"What are you afraid of there, scaredy cat?" April teased as the Turtles snickered. "What have you got there, Casey?" She then asked sternly.
"It's mine!" Casey replied, coveting the cube to himself. But his look quickly faded into one of minor surprise as he noticed something behind the group. "Huh?"
Everyone turned around to see one of the bodies of the many dead clone troopers slowly floating towards them, the little flashlights attached to the side of the helmet flickering on and off.
"Hello?" April asked nervously as the sight of this made everyone even more uncomfortable than they already were. The dead clone trooper continued slowly floating towards them, the little flashlights still flickering on and off.
Just when it was a foot away from the group, the dead clone trooper suddenly lifted it's head, it's helmet being cracked on one side of it and revealing a grotesque and rotten face underneath it, staring at the group with it's suddenly opened lifeless eyes.
The zombie clone trooper gave a moaning roar, resulting in the group screaming in terror as Casey pushed Donnie forward. Donnie then held his scanner/staff high and shined the light from it, illuminating the hallway and revealing that every one of the dead bodies in the ship were now zombies.
"Wha... what the heck?!" April uttered in total fright.
"Astro zombies? Wicked!" Casey exclaimed, still holding the object.
"No time to be an idiot, Jones!" Raph told him.
The group then turned around and saw with horror-filled eyes even more zombie clone troopers behind them.
"Let's get out of here!" Leo exclaimed as he and April pulled out their blasters while Donnie, Mikey, Raph, and Casey drew their weapons, ready to fight their way out.
Leo and April led the charge as they shot several zombie clone troopers in front of them, killing them easily since their bodies seemed so fragile.
Mikey screamed in terror as half of a zombie clone trooper clung to him, trying to smash his helmet. "You're not getting my brain, zombie!" He cried as he tried to shove it off him back by ramming his back into the wall. But the wall gave out as soon as he hit and two more zombies came out and grabbed him.
"It would help if you had some!" Raph told him, causing Mikey to glare at him slightly.
Raph landed on a zombie clone trooper, stabbing it in the chest with his laser sais and jumping off the zombie before leaping onto one of the zombies holding Mikey and crushing it's head with his foot as he magnetized to the wall.
"Aw, snap! Chalk two up for Raph!" He exclaimed as he helped Mikey get free from the zombies.
Casey ran down the hallway putting down a zombie clone trooper's helmet as he rammed a few more zombies with his shoulder, knocking them into the walls. However, when he looked towards the large hole that was their exit, he saw several zombie clone troopers blocking the exit.
"Goongala!" Casey cried as he hit the helmet with his hockey stick, sending it flying towards the horde of zombies.
The helmet hit one of the zombies square in the chest, and the other zombies gathered around and looked at the helmet in confusion. The zombie turned the helmet over and looked to see at least twelve photon pucks stuffed inside the helmet.
Before the zombie clone troopers could do anything, the photon pucks exploded, creating a massive fireball and completely obliterating the massive horde of zombies.
With the horde of zombies gone, the group raced towards the exit, activating their jetpacks and flying out of the cruiser and back to the Ulixes as fast as they could in a desperate hustle to get away from the zombies.
Mikey looked back at the horde of zombies back at the hole in the cruiser and stuck his tongue out at them.
"Later, zombies!" He laughed.
However, he quickly noticed a zombie hand crawling up his leg, causing him to scream and shake it off as he flew back to the group.
The group made it safely back to the Ulixes in one piece, taking off their space suits so they could get decontaminated. Now dressed in their casual attire, the group gathered around in their stations at the bridge.
"How odd." Honeycutt noted. "There hasn't been an astro zombie plague in over two decades."
"Wait, wait, wait, hold on. This kind of thing has happened before?!" Raph exclaimed in minor shock and slight fear.
"Why yes, many times actually." Fugitoid replied. "You see, during the years of the Empire, the imperials created a dangerous biotech weapon nicknamed Project Blackwing, an experiment in which the Empire attempted to unlock the secrets of immortality. However, the experiment went horribly wrong as instead of granting eternal life, it began infecting the crew with a dangerous plague that-"
Mikey quickly covered Honeycutt's mouth (or at least the part of his robotic face that looked like a mouth) with his hand. "TMI, Fugidude!"
"Excuse me?" Fugitoid questioned, slightly offended at the sudden interruption.
"Too much information." April clarified.
"Oh, apologies."
Donnie looked at the data he acquired at his station. "That empty ship's been beaming a distress signal for decades."
"Well, somebody left behind this cool looking souvenir." Casey said as he showed them the mysterious glowing cube he had found on the ship.
Fugitoid's optics widened in shock. "Impossible. You found a holocron?"
"A what now?" Leo questioned as the group looked in confusion.
"Holocrons are special keys to higher planes of knowledge and are where fifth dimensional beings dwell." Fugitoid explained as he grabbed the holocron, but Casey still held it tightly. "I'll be keeping this for now... putting it somewhere... safe... where it cannot... be opened!" He said as he and Casey got into a tug of war over the holocron, resulting in Honeycutt pulling Casey over the railing on the ship.
"It belongs to me!" Casey exclaimed.
Epic flashes of lightning flashed across the screen as dramatic music was playing in the background.
"Chris Bradford stars as Chris Bradford in 'Chris Bradford and his Too Rough Crew'! A Chris Bradford production."
The screen then showed Chris Bradford himself practicing several martial arts punches and kicks before taking a stance. The live action then turned to animation as Chris could now be seen in a 2d animated way wearing a red bandana, orange military pants, and a green belt and bandito shoulder belt.
Now Chris could be seen with a young African American boy holding a missile launcher and wearing a red baseball cap on backwards, blue combat armor with a ripped white undershirt underneath, and a red belt around his waist. "Lil' Rineo!"
The screen then shifted to a large boxing ring and showed several evil ninjas beating a large African American man wearing a green vest, green and orange military shorts, and red boots and sash with their swords before the man exploded his arms outward and blowing away all of the evil ninjas. "Master C!"
A large muscular sumo wrestler with a small pigtail wearing blue underwear, glasses, and green arm packs came walking out of a fast-food joint eating a big bucket of chicken wings. He then turned and saw a group of evil ninjas driving a red sports car towards him while they bore their swords. The sumo wrestler took a big bite out of his chicken wing before throwing it at the car, causing the car to somehow explode as he gave a hardy laugh. "And Sumo Glen!"
A live action Chris Bradford could be seen on the screen now as Chris kissed his fist before punching a plank of wood, breaking it in half before he turned to the camera.
"Evil Ninja has enlisted Fake Master, a trickster and a master of disguise, to destroy us! We've got to find him, before he finds us!" Chris Bradford narrated dramatically.
The scene then shifted back to animation with the setting changing to a sunny beach as Bradford and his team had just beaten down a small army of ninjas, and along with them was a very attractive woman with blonde hair wearing a small short blue sleeved shirt and pink leggings.
"We've run out of enemies to destroy, and none of them were Fake Master!" Bradford said before he turned to the girl next to him. "What should we do, Felicia?"
The girl giggled a bit before Bradford pulled her into a kiss. Lil' Rineo's jaw dropped and his eyes widened before Sumo Glen quickly covered his eyes with his hand, shaking his head.
However, as Bradford and Felicia kissed, Bradford's eyes widened as he suddenly realized something was off.
"You've got... man breath!" He exclaimed as the two pulled away.
Felicia giggled again. "Oh, Chris, you're so tough." She then suddenly pushed him down. "And kinda stupid!" She said, her voice suddenly changing to a deep male one. In a cartoonish style, 'Felicia' pulled off her disguise to reveal it was really a man with dark skin and wearing a strange goofy costume colored dark blue with yellow highlights.
"It was me all along! Fake Master!" Fake Master said before giving an evil laugh as he tossed the suit down on the ground.
"Felicia?!" Bradford exclaimed in shock before he picked up the rubber disguise and rubbed it solemnly on his cheek. "For three years, I've loved a rubber suit! NOOOOO!"
The Turtles and April sat on a large red couch in the middle of the room as they watched the television show. Donnie and April had wide-eyed expressions as they could hardly comprehend the ridiculousness being played on the screen. Leo and Raph simply looked bored as they didn't seem to find the show very entertaining. Mikey, however, looked entranced by the show as he had a bag of popcorn in his hands.
"I can't believe Chris Bradford had his own show back in the 80s." Mikey said, laughing a bit. "It's so lame, it's awesome!"
"I can't believe you used to worship that guy!" Raph said grumpily. "What do you think, Casey?" He looked around, only to find that his friend wasn't with them. "Casey?"
Professor Honeycutt walked into the large engine room in the lower levels of the ship, which was a massive chamber with a massive energy tube in the center. The room had several different layers of bridges that surrounded the whole thing as well. But Fugitoid wasn't down here for maintenance.
Honeycutt held the holocron securely in his hands as he walked across one of the extending bridges to a small platform that had a small compartment at the end of it.
"You'll be safe in here for now." Fugitoid said as he opened the compartment and put the holocron inside it.
As he walked away, he failed to notice Casey sneaking around the corner. "Stupid robot! It's mine! I found it! I'm supposed to open it!" He grumbled quietly as he tip-toed over to the compartment.
"Must open." Casey murmured almost obsessively as he opened the compartment and grabbed the holocron, looking at it as though it was his 'precious'.
Casey then began pulling at the edges of the holocron, trying very hard to open it. But nothing happened as he just got more and more frustrated. Now desperate, Casey began repeatedly slamming the holocron on the ground, hoping to smash it open, but still nothing.
Now even more frustrated, Casey slammed his fist on top of the holocron, and this time the holocron glowed. Casey paused in surprise before hesitantly pressing the top of the holocron with his index finger, causing it to glow brighter as the cube shook violently.
Casey smirked in victory at his success, but it quickly faded away as the holocron suddenly floated into the air. The parts on the holocron began to shift around until it became a hexagon like shape as all the solid parts of it faded and was replaced by several blue lines forming some form of fifth-dimensional object. Casey backed away as lightning began to emit from the object as blue smoke suddenly shot out from it.
"Whoa! What the-?!" Casey exclaimed as the blue smoke grew and a dark silhouette took form inside of it. The silhouette could be seen through the blue smoke with a pair of glowing red eye and a loud laugh echoed from the mysterious being. The laugh grew louder as Casey was forced back and fell down on his rear as a tentacle emerged from the smoke and loomed towards him.
"Casey, what are you doing with that thing?"
Casey looked behind him to see Honeycutt, Leo, Donnie, Raph, Mikey, and April enter the engine room. Casey looked back and to his surprise, the blue smoke and the being within it was gone!
"Um, I may have... opened the holocron." Casey said nervously as he stood up.
"What?!" Almost everyone in the room questioned.
"No, nonsense." Fugitoid dismissed as he walked up to Casey, who held the now open holocron in his hands. "Holocrons are highly advanced cosmic artifacts. They can't be simply opened." He then took the empty holocron from Casey and his optics widened slightly. "Ooooh, it is extremely opened."
Fugitoid suddenly felt a tap on his shoulder via a tentacle, causing Casey to back up in surprise, before it tapped on Honeycutt's other shoulder. Fugitoid looked up to find out where the tapping was coming from, only for the tentacle to comically slap in the face.
The group looked up to where the tentacle was coming from and saw a very oddly shaped creature with an oyster-shaped head, anemone-like hair on top, two bulgy eyes, a pair of buck teeth, and a strange humanoid body with blue skin, a skin tight green suit with red gloves, and a tentacle for a left leg.
The creature then popped down from the ceiling, landing in the middle of the surprised and befuddled group. "Hello, hello, my friends!" He said cheerfully as he kissed Leo's whole face. "Good to see ya!" He shook a confused Casey's hand. "Nice to meet ya!" He offered his hand to April, who backed away and kept her hand on her blaster. "Let me greet ya!" A spotlight suddenly shined on the creature out of nowhere. "You can call me Wyrm!" He introduced dramatically with fireworks exploding all around him.
Everyone was pretty much stunned silent, having no idea what to say to this.
The newly introduced Wyrm appeared in a puff of blue smoke behind Raph and grabbed him by the shoulders, making the red clad turtle feel very uncomfortable. "That's why I'm here. To make pals happy! Help you out! Give you some love!" He said as his hands detached from his arms and crawled all over Raph like spiders, causing him to yelp a bit.
He then appeared in another puff of blue smoke upside down next to Donnie. "I'm the most powerful Wyrm in ten dimensions!" Wyrm boasted as he flexed his muscle and even provided a small mushroom cloud on his arm.
Again, he popped up in a puff of blue smoke next to Mikey. "And all I wanna do is grant you three little wishes." He said as he pulled Mikey in with his right arm and held up his left arm and raising three fingers with the numbers 1, 2, and 3 appearing above each digit.
"Well technically two since Casey already made the first wish." Wyrm quickly added as he pulled down a projection screen seemingly out of nowhere and shot the 'film' from his eyes while motioning his hand to speak as he played the 'recording' of Casey.
"Like this is totally boring! I wish something not boring would happen!" The screen then showed the holocron as it was on the ship, indicating that Wyrm had heard the young vigilante, before the screen shifted to show the clone trooper zombies.
"Wait, you sicked those zombies on us?!" April questioned in anger towards Wyrm.
"All I did was grant a wish." Wyrm replied innocently as he held his hands out in front of him.
Raph then smacked Casey upside the head. "Ow! What was that for?!" Casey questioned.
"For being an idiot!" Raph yelled.
"How was I supposed to know some space-genie was listening?!" Casey argued.
"It would appear that our new friend Wyrm, is a fifth dimensional being of sorts." Fugitoid said.
"Translation please!" Leo urged.
"Since he exists in a fifth-dimensional plain, here in our third-dimensional reality, he is capable of bending reality as he sees fit." Honeycutt explained, though he was still wondering how Casey had managed to open the holocron, as only Jedi or force-sensatives could open them, and Casey was clearly not a force-sensitive. Perhaps the holocron was dysfunctional? He didn't have time to ponder these thoughts as Donnie spoke up.
"So, basically, you can do literally anything?" Donnie questioned.
"DING-DING-DING-DING! WE HAVE A WINNER!" Wyrm announced on a small microphone before handing Donnie a large golden trophy complete with more fireworks as Donnie was left with an utterly confused look on his face.
Wyrm then appeared in front of the group once more with a piece of chalk in his hands. "Okay, so here are the rules." He said as he began to draw a mutant turtle and a human in thin air with two numbers above them. "You've got two more wishes, and yo gotta share 'em. We're living in hard economic times!"
"Ooh! Ooh! Ooh!" Mikey immediately raised his hand.
"You can never make a wish to get more wishes." Wyrm told them, already knowing Mikey's question as the chalk-drawings shook their fingers. "Against the rules."
"Awww!" Mikey groaned as he lowered his hand and sulked in disappointment.
"Last rule," Wyrm drew a new chalk drawing of himself in-between the chalk-turtle and chalk-human. "You can never ever wish to hurt a Wyrm." He said in a surprisingly threatening tone.
"So otherwise, we can wish for anything we want? Wow!" Donnie said in an amazed tone.
"That's right! So what's it gonna be?" Wyrm said as he bounced into the air and hovered like he was sitting on an invisible hammock.
Now excited, the group gathered around in a small huddle. "So obviously, we'll wish for an endless supply of comic books.." Mikey said, barely able to contain his excitement. "Oh, oh! A space surf board! Yes!"
"Mikey, we've gotta think about this seriously." Donnie told him.
"The first wish has gotta be to save Earth, right? Stop the Triceratons!" Raph said, getting the right idea.
"Does that count as two wishes?" Leo questioned, slightly confused.
"We could wish for universal peace throughout the galaxy!" April suggested. "That would cover just about everything, right?"
"How about something important, like Casey Jones becomes the ultimate superhero in the universe!" Casey exclaimed.
Pretty much everyone lowered their eyelids at Casey's suggestion. Seriously? What part of 'take this seriously' did he not understand?
"Casey, you already wasted a wish on those dumb astro zombies!" Donnie told him in frustration. "Oh, man, I wish you weren't such a big dummy!" He then gasped as his eyes widened in realization at his mistake and he covered his mouth with his hands.
Everyone gasped in horror. "Donnie!" Leo exclaimed, but it was too late as a bright blue glow engulfed the room.
Wyrm began to laugh as he shot a beam of energy from his hands right at Casey. Casey's skin turned a bright sky blue as his eyes glowed a bright white. As his eyes glowed, he could see... everything! From the big bang that created the universe, a fire lighting a match, a massive solar eclipse, asteroids colliding, a drop of water falling into a river, a hawk soaring, a baby crying, and even a nuclear explosion.
"Whoa, I can see everything!" Casey spoke in astonishment as he saw multiple complex equations and formulas as they poured into his mind. "Every molecule, every electron, every proton, every neutron! I've just counted the total amount of dark matter molecules that erupted from univeres' beginning, to Einstein's relative theory and how time is the one unassailable force in the cosmos, all with unique factorization! I... am... THE DOPEST MIND IN ALL OF REALITY!"
Everyone's jaws comically dropped to the floor as their eyes were nothing more than white circles.
"What have I done?" Donnie uttered in horror as he gripped his head with his hands.
"Okay, okay! Nobody panic!" April said, even though she was on the verge of panic herself. "We still have the third wish, we can fix everything."
"Of course you can! You just need to wish!" Wyrm said as his eyes bulged out toward April and the rest of his body quickly caught up. "So what's it gonna be?"
The group said nothing as they nervously looked to each other, almost too frightened to say anything.
"What's wrong?" Wyrm playfully asked. "You scared of a tinny, tiny, wish?" He said as he literally shrunk himself, but Leo held his hand up in front of him.
"Hold up." Leo said sternly. "Before we make anymore wishes, we're gonna discuss this carefully."
That response did not to seem to please Wyrm as his cheerful face immediately fell, replaced by one of angry confusion. "You could have all the power in the universe, but you wanna discuss it?!" He questioned before disappearing in a puff of blue smoke.
Before anyone could question where he went, the entire ship came to sudden grinding halt, causing everyone to fall down.
"What was that?!" Raph questioned as the group got up.
"We've hit something!" Fugitoid stated as the group rushed to the bridge.
Quickly rushing onto the bridge, the group gasped in horror and utter confusion at what they saw outside the main window.
"The stars... they're gone!" Donnie exclaimed, not believing what he was seeing, what any of them were seeing. It looked like the inside of the ship from the window, with some strange blue lines across it.
Casey looked at the empty holocron in his hands and spotted what appeared to be a small version of the Ulixies inside it. "Our spaceship." He uttered in astonishment.
Everyone screamed as they saw Casey's face peering in at them through the window. "GIANT EYEBALL!" Mikey screamed.
Casey, with his new omnipotent intelligence, suddenly figured it out. "We are somehow trapped both inside and outside the holocron simultaneously! We're in a fifth-dimensional prison!"
"I find that being inside a fifth-dimensional prison really focuses the mind." Wyrm stated as he casually leaned on one of the stations on the bridge. "NOW MAKE A WISH!"
"One moment, please." Fugitoid said, getting everyone's attention as he brought up a three-dimensional screen showing holographic images of three different beings. One was Wyrm, another appeared to be a green genie-like creature crossed with a goblin, and the third one had the head of a horse with one long ugly fang, a deer antler on the right side of his head, a goat horn on the left side, a goat's beard, the body of a snake, with a lion paw, an eagle claw, a lizard leg, a goat leg, a bat wing, and bird wing, and a long snake-like tail.
"Our friend Wyrm here is one of the three reality bending creators of chaos!"
"Creators of chaos?!" April gulped in shock. "That doesn't sound good."
"Indeed it does not." Fugitoid continued. "They were each put into fifth-dimensional prisons many centuries ago and scattered across the cosmos." He then paused for a moment before looking more closely at the hologram. "Although it says one of them was imprisoned in stone in some other dimension..." Suddenly Honeycutt was hit with a bolt of lightning, causing his robotic body to short circuit as he fell to the ground.
"FUGITOID!" The group exclaimed in shock.
"Granting... all three wishes... frees the Wyrm of his prison forever." Fugitoid weakly finished as Wyrm gave an evil laugh with a blue storm cloud forming over him.
The Turtles all drew their weapons as April got out her blaster. "Forget it, Wyrm! You'll never get a third wish out of us!" Leo declared.
Wyrm simply continued to laugh as the four turtles were the first to leap towards him, ready to cut him down with their weapons. But Wyrm shot streaks of lightning from his finger tips, zapping the Turtles before he caught their fallen forms and rolled them all up into a massive ball.
"Maybe this will knock some sense into ya!" Wyrm cackled as rolled the 'turtle ball' along the wall like a bowling ball before rebounding across the side with a giant baseball bat and Yankees hat, batting them away with the bat and sending the Turtles all rolling across the floor.
The Turtles quickly got up and charged at Wyrm again, this time with a little more caution. But Wyrm was still ready for them as he formed his left hand into a cartoon-like sledge hammer, which he inflated to a comedic size by blowing into his right thumb.
"Wyrm feels like creating a little chaos!" Wyrm said as he raised the sledge hammer with one arm.
Mikey jumped up, trying to hit Wyrm with his nunchucks only for Wyrm to smash him with his sledge hammer, causing the orange clad turtle to be flattened like in a cartoon.
"Know what I'm sayin'?!"
Donnie jumped onto the railing before leaping into the air, whipping out his naginata blade as he tried to get the drop on Wyrm, but Wyrm quickly turned around and turned himself into a trampoline, causing Donnie to bounce off and hit the wall.
"Casey, you're super smart now! What do we do?!" April questioned as she tried to shoot Wyrm with her blaster, but he easily dodged the laser fire as though he were made of rubber.
Casey didn't reply, instead he just stood there, as if contemplating what to do.
Wyrm stopped dodging the blaster fire, opened his mouth and literally began eating the lasers before turning around and shooting them out of his butt at the group, who were forced to dodge the laser fire.
Raph tried to tackle him, but Wyrm flipped above him as Leo tried to slice him with his katana. He then disappeared and reappeared with a pirates hat and cutlass as Leo and Raph tried to attack him, but he parried all of their attacks. "Arr, Cap'n Wyrm gotta deal with a mutiny!" He said in a pirate impression as he parried his sword and foot against Leo and Raph's blades before jumping onto one the stations and knocking Raph away with a kick.
Leo slashed at Wyrm, but the chaos creator jumped off the station and shrunk down to his head as Leo slashed at him again, only to miss. He then slithered his head across the floor like a pirate ship before coming back to full size. He laughed as Leo jumped up and tried to hit him with two round house kicks, but Wyrm once again easily dodged. Leo slashed down at Wyrm, but he moved out of the way as Leo's blade only hit the ground.
Leo charged at Wyrm again, but Wyrm jumped, bouncing around the room as he used his tentacle leg as a spring.
"Why bother fight'n me ya dweebs?! I'm too tough for ya!" Wyrm cackled before Raph tackled him out of midair and onto the ground. This gave Leo his chance as he came in with a yell, and with one sword slice, cut Wyrm's head off.
Wyrm's severed head hit the ground, one of his eyes dangling out of it's sockets by the optic nerve.
Thinking it was over, Leo stood up straight and smirked in triumph. What was that he was saying about being to tough for them?
But then, to everyone's shock (and disgust), Wyrm's tongue ensnared Leo as the Wyrm's headless body jumped on top of Leo, with the mouth beginning to swallow him whole whilst Wyrm's tentacle leg ensnared Raph.
Mikey gasped in visual horror before he looked down and saw Wyrm's head bounce toward him until it jumped on top of him and began to devour him from the top, causing him to scream.
"HELP! GET HIM OFF OF ME!" Mikey shrieked as he tried pull Wyrm's head off him, but to no avail.
Donnie and April rushed over to help him, only for Wyrm's lower body to smack them away with Raph as Leo found him self completely devoured by Wyrm's lower body. Wyrm's lower body then transformed into a rocket ship with Leo's face sticking out at the end before the rocket shot up and spun around the room, creating smoke everywhere as the rocket picked up Mikey.
Frustrated beyond belief, Raph slammed his fist into the ground. "Wish I had an Anti-Wyrm laser cannon!" He growled.
Everyone gasped in horror. "Raph, NO!" Donnie shouted.
But it was too late as a flash of bright light appeared above Raph as it took the form of a large highly advanced laser gun, complete with an Anti-Wyrm symbol on the side. It fell into Raph's hands as he smirked almost evilly.
"Now that's more like it!" He said as held up the weapon.
Both the pieces of Wyrm vanished, freeing Leo and Mikey in the process, as they reappeared as one single Wyrm.
"Oh no! Please!" Wyrm begged as he appeared in front of Raph and got on his knees while Raph primed the weapon. "Don't blast me! I know I was a little rude, a little whacky, and a little off the wall!" He cried. "Oh, I'm so sorry!"
"Not buying it, Wyrm!" Raph told him. "Get a face full of this!" He pulled the trigger, but what came out of the blaster was not a super destructive laser beam, but a red flag with the word 'BANG' on it.
"Wha.. I.. what?!" Raph uttered in disbelief as he looked at his so-called 'weapon', his face giving an expression of frustration. "That's not fair! I made a wish!"
A naughty smirk appeared on Wyrm's flamboyant face. "Of course it's fair. Remember? Last rule!" He then a Wyrm-hand-puppet that spoke in his voice. "You can never, ever, make a wish to hurt a Wyrm."
Suddenly, the whole ship began to vibrate as Wyrm gave another evil laugh. The holocron began to shake and vibrate as Wyrm stretched his hand to take it while stretching his left leg tentacle to grab Honeycutt and turn him back on.
"Bleep! And now Wyrm is free to rule the cosmos!" Fugitoid said in worry.
"Yeah! That's the fun part!" Wyrm said as he dropped the now useless holocron and crushed it beneath his foot. "C'mon, I'll show ya!"
By destroying the holocron, Wyrm had also freed the Ulixies from the prison he put on it, not that it mattered anymore since Wyrm was now free to do what he wanted.
"Space is much too crowded!" Wyrm said. "We're gonna do some space cleaning!" He then faced the window as he pulled out a conductors baton and tapped Fugitoid's head a bit with it. "Music, Professor!" He then began to 'conduct', with Mozart playing in the background as he flashed his baton, causing several planets and stars to explode all across the galaxy, creating a flashy show around the Ulixies ship.
The Turtles and April could only watch in horror as Wyrm laughed and incited chaos all across the galaxy. Blowing up whole planets, crashing them together, even imploding them, incidentally killing trillions of lives. Jaws dropped and white circular eyes was all they could give as they witnessed this madness.
The group finally gave into their desperation as the Turtles charged at Wyrm, weapons ready, while April was prepared to cast all of her psychic powers at her disposal. But Wyrm turned around and pointed his baton at them, causing them to stop in mid-attack before tossing them back towards Casey, who wasn't fazed in the least bit despite everything that had just happened.
"Dang it!" Raph slammed his fist on the ground. "Why did I make that last stupid wish?!"
"You gave into your desperation, that's why." Casey simply replied.
"Can you blame him?!" April cried as she and the Turtles got up. "There has to be something we can do!"
"There's nothing we can do, April." Casey told her. "I've calculated nine hundred and eighty thousand different scenarios, and they all end with Wyrm ruling the cosmos. All but one."
That got everyone's attention. "Wait... one scenario?"
"Yes, one where we're not all dead." Casey said as he walked up to Wyrm. "Wyrm is the most powerful being in all of reality. So it makes perfect sense that I, the most intelligent being in reality, to join him." He said with almost evil smirk.
Everyone gasped in horror as Wyrm appeared next to intelligent and treacherous Casey. "Ha!" Wyrm laughed.
"What are you doing, Casey?!" Raph demanded.
"The only smart thing, Raphael." Casey replied. "Teaming up with Wyrm."
Said reality-bending creature laughed before opening his mouth and engulfing the whole group into darkness. As the Turtles looked around, they found themselves wearing hockey helmets and holding hockey sticks before a bright light flashed on to show that they were standing in the middle of Casey's hockey rink back in New York.
"Time to play, fellas!"
The Turtles looked to the other side of the rink to see five Caseys across from them, each holding a hockey stick and wearing their masks over their faces. The Caseys then skated forward, with one smacking a puck towards them that hit Donnie square in the face, knocking him down.
Another Casey whacked Mikey across the face with his hockey stick, sending the orange clad turtle flying into the wall. Mikey tried desperately to crawl away, but one of the Caseys grabbed him and dragged him back into the rink.
Another Casey hit Raph where the sun don't shine, causing Raph to cry out in pain as he fell to the ground and allowing the Caseys to beat him while he was down.
Leo tried to fend off one of the Caseys, but the Casey slammed Leo into the wall, knocking him down.
Wyrm sat in the stands, holding a big sign saying 'Go Casey' on it while he held April via chain by her neck. April was sitting next to Wyrm wearing a certain golden slave bikini as all she could do was watch helplessly as her friends were getting absolutely pummeled by the Casey's.
The five Caseys smacked the Turtles into the goal and the game seemed to over. And before the Turtles and April, knew what was happening, they fell into another seemingly bottomless black abyss. The Turtles and April screamed as they fell into the bleak abyss before landing hard on the streets of New York where they were greeted by several Casey's of all sizes.
All they could do was scream and run as the Caseys chased after them, laughing almost demonically. They tried to split into groups, but each group seemed to be in an equal amount of danger.
Donnie and April (who was now back in her regular clothes) ran along the basketball court, batting away several Caseys with their weapons as they tried to make their way to an alley, only to find their path blocked by a gigantic Casey reaching towards them with an evil laugh.
Raph jumped from car-to-car along the street, running as fast as he could from three Caseys who were all riding the Shellraiser after him.
Leo and Mikey both screamed as they ran down the street with two Caseys chasing them in the Party-Wagon.
All three parties met up at a three-way intersect with the Caseys all riding the Shellraiser, the Party-Wagon, and the Turtle-Racer coming at them from all sides before they revved their engines and charged at them. The group screamed and closed their eyes as they waited for the painful end to come.
But to their surprise, it never did.
When the group opened their eyes, the whole group found that they were back on the bridge of the Ulixies with the intelligent Casey and Wyrm right beside them.
"See? My wishes were great! Look what you could have had!" Wyrm told them as he motioned to the smirking Casey. "I'll tell you what, smart guy. You and I will rule the universe, together."
"Sweet." Casey replied as the two fist bumped.
"Casey, you jerk!" Donnie angrily shouted.
"Me being a jerk? You guys have had this coming for a long time!" Casey retorted.
"What? What did we ever do to you?!" Leo questioned.
"Ever since we met, you guys always treated me like a joke!" Casey told them. "Always doubting me, laughing at me, making fun of me. Well I'm not having any of that anymore!"
The Turtles and April were shocked at Casey's explanation, and some of them even looked a little guilty after hearing it. It was true, ever since they had met Casey, they had always treated him like the third wheel. Always telling him off, questioning his actions, and never appreciating him when he was really a part of their team.
Wyrm then appeared on the railing behind the group. "First, I need a little proof of your loyalty. Destroy your old friends!" Wyrm told his new 'partner'.
"I agree, wormy!" Casey replied, much to the shock of his friends. "Let's squash 'em!"
"Casey, please, don't do this!" April begged.
"Yeah, we're your friends!" Mikey also begged.
But Casey seemed to ignore their pleas. "But if I'm gonna take them out once and for all, I'm gonna need a wish."
Wyrm contemplated this for a moment. "Hmmm, fine. You get a wish-bonus!" Wyrm said, giving Casey one free wish as he patted his shoulders while Casey loomed over the frightened and hurt group with an evil smirk.
"Casey... I..." April stuttered as the group backed away out of pure fear. "Please... don't do this! Please!"
"I... wish..." Casey's smile then turned into a genuine one as he winked at the group, surprising them as he turned around and pointed at Wyrm. "That we never found that stupid holocron in the first place!"
Wyrm laughed before he suddenly realized what Casey had said. "WHAT?!" He popped up in shock. "You.. you can't wish that!"
"Unless this wish physically hurts you, yes I can." Casey told him.
Leo, Raph, Mikey, and April all cheered while Donnie looked confused. "Y-you tricked him?!"
Casey turned around towards the group. "I told ya, I calculated nine hundred and eighty thousand different scenarios. And only one ended in our favor: my deception."
"Then you really were on our side this whole time!" April cheered joyfully.
"But... did you really mean all that stuff about how we've always treated you like a joke?" Raph asked.
Casey's face fell a bit. "Yeah, I did." He replied. "I just had to say that. And I'm sorry about all that stuff earlier, there was no other way."
"No, Casey, we're sorry." Donnie said, placing a hand on his shoulder. "We're all sorry for being such bad friends to you."
"Yeah, dude, we'll never doubt you again." Mikey agreed.
"Your part of our team, and we should have treated you that way." Leo told him. "No matter what, you'll always be our friend."
Casey looked up at the group and smiled. "Thanks, guys, your the best." He said as they all gathered in a big group hug.
Wyrm could only stutter realizing he had been bested. "Bu.. bu.. bu.. but if you never found the holocron, then none of this ever happened and.." Wyrm gave out a cry of despair as he fell to his knees.
"Rules are rules, Wyrm." Casey told him as the group walked up to him with triumphant looks. "You granted me a wish, and now you gotta make it!"
Wyrm sat up, trying to hold his mouth shut, but he could not fight the compulsion. "Nnnn... no... no... no! Your... your... your wish... is my... COMMAND!"
*FLASH*
"So eerie." April shivered, holding her arms as the group walked deeper into the ship, their only light source being the flashlights built into their helmets. "It's like a horror movie waiting to happen. And I don't have to be psychic to get a bad feeling about this place."
Casey suddenly floated past the group, his arms folded behind his head as he floated on his back. "I have a bad feeling too." He began. "Like this is totally boring! I wish-"
"NO!"
Casey sat up to see April looking at him with wide eyes. "Don't wish anything!" April told the surprised and confused group. "I-I don't know why, just don't say a word!"
"Okay, Red, no wishes." Casey replied. "What's the big deal?"
"Yeah, are you feeling alright, April?" Donnie asked in concern.
April looked just as confused as everyone else. "I.. don't really know. I just had this feeling that... something crazy was going to happen. The bad kind of crazy."
"You sure you didn't hit your head or something?" Raph asked, not really getting it.
"The scanners are detecting nothing alive on that ship." Fugitoid told them via their radio-links. "You should all return immediately. I believe I may have a lead on the Triceraton Mother Ship."
The group, happy to finally hear some good news, began to leave as they all jet-packed out of the old republic cruiser, Leo being among the last. Just as he was about to leave, Leo paused for a moment.
"Hey, did you guys hear something?" Leo asked as he looked back, only to be greeted with silence. "Ah, never mind. I just had a weird sense of déjà vu." He said as he quickly floated after the others.
"IT'S NOT FAIR!" Wyrm screamed from inside the holocron, still trapped inside the cube at the very back of the derelict ship where no one could hear him, freedom having slipped through his grasp, probably for all eternity. "COME BACK HERE AND MAKE A WISH, YOU HEAR ME?! LET ME OUTTA HERE!"
Done.
Well, I had a lot of fun writing this chapter. I have also been reading your reviews and thank you so much for you kindness, however I'm going to have to break a few hearts and tell you that the Turtles, April, and Casey will NOT be learning how to use the Force, as cool as that might be. I'm really sorry about it, but I'm a bit of a stickler when it comes to continuity. Anyways, I hope you all liked this chapter and I will update as soon as I can.
