Donatello and Danny are under the water swimming to the surface.
DONNIE- My name is Donatello and right now my brother Danny and I are learning just how long we can hold our breaths
They both emerge and take in huge breaths, they both then climb back onto the docks and hide within the shadows. Donnie zooms in with his night vision goggles at some sort of cannon that is sending huge beams of energy into the river while Danny watches from behind him.
DANNY- That cannon is messing up the east river and if it keeps up, the whole south street sea port could go crumbling into the water
DONNIE- I'd be fascinated by the technology…
They both suddenly see shadows looking down on them and turn to see the same ninja's they had encountered from before above them.
DANNY- That is if we wasn't otherwise occupied
The ninja's leap off and prepare to strike them down…
DARKNESS ON THE EDGE OF TOWN
In the sewers of New York Michelangelo was skateboarding through the pipes. Mikey then exclaimed, "He is the Alpha dog! The thrashmeister! The undisputed god of the half-pipe!"
Mikey then skated halfway up the pipe wall and then flipped off it spinning three times before landing back down on the ground shouting, "WAHOOOO!"
Raph then came speeding up behind him on his rollerblades and then said, "Who needs half-pipe bro when you got full pipe?"
With a laugh he rollerbladed in a full circle in the pipe and the two headed straight back for the lair. Coming up behind them from another pipe was Donnie on a bike, Leo on a scooter and Danny on another skateboard.
"Going for amplitude!" Donnie shouted as he rode up a ramp and then spun in the air for a second before landing back down on the ground.
"Going for grindatude!" Leo then shouted as he too went up the ramp, spun three times in a circle in the air and then grinded against a table before landing back on the ground.
"Heads up bros! Check this out!" Danny called out as he went up the ramp.
He flew up in the air and then landed on one of the brick pillars, he then balanced on his skateboard with only one hand and then rode down the wall on the skateboard before jumping off and landing on the ground.
"Alright bro!" Raph cheered and the five continued to ride their sports gear around the lair.
Master Splinter had walked out of the kitchen carrying a tray with a pot of tea, a cup and a muffin. Leo then zoomed past him and called out, "Excuse me sensei"
Splinter placed the tray down on the table in the living room and sighed. His thoughts were interrupted as Donnie called out, "HEAD'S UP SENSEI…I MEAN DOWN!"
Splinter quickly ducked out of the way as Donnie leapt over him on his bike. He then poured some tea into the cup and then quickly jumped out of the way before he could be run over by Raph who then shouted, "Nice recovery sensei!"
Splinter sighed and then spun out of the way as Danny came zooming pass him. Danny then called out, "Sorry sensei"
Splinter was about to grab one of his muffins but it was snatched away by Mikey as came speeding past and he called out, "Thanks sensei!"
Splinter looked at them in annoyance. They all then shouted, "EXTREME GREEN!"
Splinter merely chuckled and then sighed as he sat down on the lounge chair and turned the television on but then suddenly all the power went out leaving them all in complete darkness. There was suddenly a crashing noise and all that could now be heard was the groans of Danny and the Turtles.
"Nice wiring job Don" Mikey said sarcastically. Donnie then suggested, "I guarantee it's not my wiring. Maybe it's a blackout"
"Maybe now would you mind getting your foot off my shell?" Mikey pleaded.
Splinter lit a candle and filled the room with its small light. Leo then joked, "Eugh! Keep that flame away from Mikey. He scarfed down a whole chilli pizza for dinner"
"Clearly there is a power failure" Splinter said. "I suggest you investigate and see if it can be fixed"
"We're all over it sensei" Danny said.
They all the packed up their sports gear, Danny and Mikey carried their skateboards, Raph pushed the wheels into his skates making them now shoes, Leo folded his scooter and attached it to his belt and Donnie folded his bike and carried it on his back and then the five left the lair as Splinter said, "And hurry up! I do not wish to miss my favourite program"
A few minutes later of running on the rooftops, they all stopped on top of a water tower to find that the entire side of town that they lived in was in complete darkness due to the power failure.
"You know I don't think meant we should investigate this far" Leo said.
"You can never be too thorough especially when it comes to topside time" Raph said.
"This whole side of town is dark. A substation must've gone out" Donnie suggested. Danny then asked, "This doesn't seem right though. Shouldn't there be emergency lights or generators or something?"
"Yeah it's totally dark down there" Raph agreed. Mikey then smiled and said, "Which means there's only one thing for us to do"
And by he meant go down to the streets in front of the museum and ride their sports gear. Leo then stopped and asked in concern, "Guys you really think we should be doing this? What if somebody sees us?"
"That's the beauty of it Leo" Raph said as he stopped rollerblading. "Nobody can see us. It's pitch black"
"Get with the program bro. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity to session some surface terrain" Mikey then added.
Donnie then came up to them and whispered as he pointed to the side of the museum, "Hey check this out"
They all hid and watched as a couple of the ninja's they had fought once before were climbing up the side of the building heading for the roof. Danny then asked, "Didn't we fight these clowns once before?"
"Yeah and we nearly got waxed" Donnie answered remembering how tough those ninja's were.
Raph smirked and pulled out his sais and said as he spun them around, "Who's up for some payback?"
The two ninja's climbed through the window and landed on the floor of the museum in the Japanese exhibit. At the end of the room in a glass case was a sword with a white and gold handle. One of the ninja's pulled out a tool and carved a circle in the glass and pulled it off. The other ninja then put on some kind of glove and was about to grab it when suddenly a shuriken spike almost hit him and lodged itself near the wood.
They both turned to see Danny and the Turtles standing before them. Danny then changed into his ghost form as Leo then said with a smirk, "Gift shops on the first floor boys but they don't take kindly to strangers and neither do we"
The ninja pulled out his sword ready to fight while the other one was about to grab the sword again but Raph threw another shuriken at them and stopped them. Raph then said, "Before you try making off with the goods, you might want to consider a few things. One, you're outnumbered and two don't let the pretty faces fool ya. We're tougher than we look"
Suddenly more ninja surrounded them and Mikey then said, "And three, we're about to get our seriously hammered"
One of the ninja's then charged with a staff and Leo pulled out his sword and also charged at him. He sliced his staff in half with his sword and though it looked like he was now weapon-less, two blades came out of the end.
He then swung to strike Leo, but Leo turned and blocked the blow with his shell breaking the blades and then knocked the ninja back straight into another one right into the floor.
"Whew! Saved by the shell" Leo said in relief.
"Check it out! Blades and blades" Raph said with a laugh as he activated his rollerblades and started rollerblading towards a group of ninjas.
One of the charged right at Raph with his sword but before he could even strike him with the blade, Raph flipped over him and instead of slicing him, he sliced a pot and broke it. Raph landed and then exclaimed, "You break it pal, and you bought it!"
The ninja chased after Raph as he rollerbladed around the room. Raph then said, "And speaking of buying it…"
He then spun around and delivered a powerful round house kick right in the ninja's stomach and sent him straight into a gong. Donnie unfolded his bike and rode around on it and then flipped it up and the wheel hit a ninja in the face and knocked him back right into a suit of armour from Feudal Japan.
He then turned and pulled out his staff and held it like it was a jousting tournament and shouted, "CHARGE!"
He then rode forwards and knocked his staff right into the ninja's stomach and sent him flying right into the gong. Danny was sword fighting against some of the ninjas and had knocked some of them back with an energy strike he placed into his sword. He then roundhouse kicked one of them in the stomach and then rode on his skateboard and then flipped it right in the ninja's nose sending him straight into the ground.
"Nice fall little ninjas" Danny said smugly.
He turned and saw one charging right at him with sword, Danny got ready to fight him but then stopped and froze as he saw the foot symbol on the front of the ninja's chest as a flashback suddenly appeared in his mind.
FLASHBACK
Two year old Danny saw a strange symbol on his mother's computer. He saw her mother shake her head and whisper, "This is bad"
The symbol then appeared all around in his mind in a never ending sea of darkness…
"NO!" Raph shouted and then blocked the blade just as it was about to strike his brother down with his sais.
Danny came out of his shock and then kicked the ninja away. Raph then quickly asked, "You okay bro? What happened?"
Danny breathed heavily and shook his head and answered, "I don't know. We'll worry about it later"
The two then went back to fighting with the others. Mikey skateboarded and knocked three ninja's down at once as he exclaimed, "WAHOOO! Bowling for ninjas!"
Suddenly a chain wrapped around his right wrist coming from a ninja that was holding a chain sickle and he dragged Mikey towards him. Mikey then smirked and called out, "Heads up!"
He jumped off his skateboard and then flipped it right into the ninja's stomach and knocked him out to the ground. Mikey then said, "Way to pick up that spare"
Mikey then ripped off the ninja's symbol from his chest and said, "And a trophy to boot"
"A little help here!" Leo called out as he was having trouble fighting three to four ninjas at once.
"WE'RE ON IT!" Danny, Raph, Donnie and Mikey all shouted as they came towards Leo on their sports equipment at the same time.
They all then shouted as they realised they were going to crash, "LOOK OUT!"
The ninja's jumped out of the way and the five brothers crashed into each other and ended up in a pile like they were a ruined sandcastle on a beach. They all groaned in pain followed by Mikey's comment, "I sense a team work training session in our future"
All the ninjas then started running out of the building through the windows escaping while they can as Leo called out, "Double time! They're getting away!"
The ninja with the glove however stayed behind and grabbed the sword from the glass case. Danny and the Turtles then surrounded the ninja before he could get away and then Danny said, "Just put the sword back and we'll call it even"
The ninja however wasn't fazed by them and he raised the sword and suddenly it started glowing and sparking some sort of energy, he then aimed the sword at them and before they could do anything, beams of energy hit them all dead on and sent them flying straight into the wall screaming. Danny was feeling weak by the blast he was forced to change back into his human form. With that the ninja took off with the sword.
Danny and the Turtles groaned as they sat up. Mikey then sarcastically asked, "How about best 2 out of three?"
"What was that sword?" Donnie asked as Raph helped him up and then they could hear the sounds of police sirens outside the museum.
Leo then said, "Hold that thought. We gotta book"
With that they all left before the police came inside to investigate what happened.
Danny and the Turtles all returned to the lair and told Master Splinter everything that happened at the museum and then Mikey gave him the symbol that he ripped off the ninja during the fight. Leo then asked, "What does the symbol mean Master Splinter?"
"Trouble" Splinter answered.
"You know something about these ninja's? Who do they work for?" Raph asked as he noticed Splinter looked at the symbol as if he was familiar with it. He then thought back to when they were fighting the ninjas and remembered how Danny froze and looked at the ninja's the same way.
Mikey then asked, "And what do they want with a magic sword?"
Donnie shook his head and said, "Nope. Not magic. Probably more like a self-perpetuating isolation frequency generator?"
"Uh could you translate that into English Donnie?" Danny asked. Donnie then answered, "It packs a shock wave that'll knock you flat on your shell"
"We gotta go after these creeps" Raph said determined. Splinter then faced them all and said, "No. A wise ninja does not seek out an enemy he does not fully understand"
"But sensei Bushido demands that we fight for honour and justice and…" Leo began but Splinter cut him off, "Bushido also demands that you honour your master's wishes! I will meditate upon this matter further. Good night"
With that he went into his room and closed his door. Mikey then whined, "Under-grounded again"
Raph then asked, "Danny what happened back at the museum? You froze as soon as you saw the ninja's symbol and looked as if you knew something about it, just like sensei did just now. What's up?"
Danny sighed and looked down and answered, "I don't know myself but back in the museum as soon as I saw that foot symbol up close, I remembered something back when I was two years old. I think I saw the same symbol on my mother's computer before and then it kept re-appearing right up until you Raph stopped the blow from that ninja. I'm sorry guys"
"Danny its fine" Leo said as he placed his hand on his shoulder. "It couldn't be helped. Maybe you should talk to Master Splinter about it"
"I'll talk to him later. Right now I think he's already weirded out by it" Danny said.
Donnie then thought of something and went straight to his computer. Raph then asked as they all followed him, "What are you doing Brainiac?"
Donnie then said as he started typing on the keyboard, "There's more than one way to seek out your enemy"
Meanwhile at the same building with the foot symbol, the same man entered a room where several of the same ninjas Danny and the Turtles had been fighting were waiting. He removed his shirt and then stood ready in a fight stance.
The ninjas kneeled before him and bowed their heads in respect for their master. One of them then pulled out their sword and charged right at him but then man kicked him away with a dragon kick, another ninja then tried to attack him from behind with a chain and sickle but he flipped out of the way and then delivered a kick as he flipped backwards, kicking both ninjas that charge at him from the front and back.
He then noticed Hun come into the room holding something that was covered by a cloth on a cushion. He raised his hand at Hun and said, "Ah Hun. One moment"
All four ninjas charged straight at the man and one by one he took them all down in just a few seconds. All the ninjas groaned in pain and then then man walked over and picked up his shirt and placed it back on. He turned to Hun and grinned as he said, "I trust you bring good news"
He walked over to Hun who then kneeled down and held the item out in front of him. The man removed the cloth to reveal the same sword the ninjas had stolen from the museum under his orders.
He grinned as he picked it up in his hands and said, "The Sword of Tengu. Still just as potent after all these years"
He held the sword near a suit of armour in a glass case and it suddenly glowed making him grin wider as he said, "And still able to locate other artefacts that share its unique origin. Yes this sword will help me track those that I've been hunting for all these years"
He placed the sword back on the cushion and then ordered Hun, "Take it to Tech division and tell them proceed with Phase 2"
The next evening Mikey was sitting on the couch eating chips and reading his comic book, Leo was practicing his katas, Danny was meditating on that symbol trying to figure it out but groaned and stopped as he couldn't figure it, Raph was at the practice dummy blowing off some steam and Donnie was still at the computer.
Master Splinter had not come out of his room all day and everyone was starting to worry. Mikey then asked, "What's with the big cheese? He's been zoning in there all day"
"It's that ninja symbol. It's got sensei all weirded out" Leo answered. Danny then said, "I know the feeling. Even by meditating I can't figure out where I had seen that symbol before or what it even means"
"Enough of this waiting around!" Raph snapped as he continued to take his anger out on the dummy. "I say we head topside, kick ninja butt, take ninja names and find out the whole ninja story for ourselves"
With a roar of anger he kicked the dummy's head right off and sent it flying right into Mikey's bag of chips. Mikey cringed and said, "Woah! Remind me never to get on your bad side dude"
"Too late" Raph said with a smirk as he started heading for the front door.
Leo however flipped over and landed in front of him cutting him off from the exit and said, "Hang on Raph! No-one's going anywhere"
"Guys! Check this out!" Donnie called out from his desk. They all headed over and then Donnie said, "I hacked into the power company's computer system. Looks like there's another black out down by the South Street Seaport"
"I smell a rat and I don't mean Splinter" Raph said as he suspected it had something to do with the ninjas.
All of them except Leo then started heading for the front door. Leo then said, "Hang on guys. Splinter told us…"
"Not to go after the ninjas but he didn't say anything power failures" Raph cut in. Donnie smiled as he grabbed his duffle bag and said, "Excellent! I have a few new surveillance toys I wanna test"
Leo groaned and muttered as he followed them, "Wait up! It's tough being a leader"
Danny laughed as he heard that comment. All of them were unaware that Splinter was watching them leave from the shadows, but he didn't stop them.
Danny and the Turtles stood on the bridge looking over the South Street Seaport and just like the night before, the entire area was filled with darkness due to the power failure.
"Total blackout just like last night" Danny said. "Which means this is definitely no coincidence"
"That's correct my brother and which is why I came prepared this time" Donnie said as he went through his duffle bag and pulled out a high tech pair of goggles.
Mikey snatched them out of his hand and placed them on and said goofily, "Woah! Total turtle vision"
Donnie snatched them off him and said as he placed them on his own head, "Night vision actually. Since Danny has the ability to see in really dark places in his ghost form, I made these to give me that same ability which means Danny will be with me checking out the area. Oh and Danny I won't be needing you to carry me for this"
"How's that Don?" Danny asked. Danny grinned and then pushed a button in the middle of the backpack he was wearing and suddenly a hang glider appeared on his back. He then said, "I've been dying to try this puppy"
"You mean you haven't tested it yet?" Leo asked.
"Dude! How's he supposed to test a flying machine in the sewers?" Mikey pointed out.
Danny changed into his ghost form and then asked Donnie, "Are you sure about this bro?"
"I'll be fine Danny" Donnie answered. He then handed Danny a headset and said to the others, "We'll stay in touch through the Shell Cell. I worked all the theoretical aerial dynamics"
He then took off with a shout, "It's definitely fool proooooooof! Woahhhhhh!"
Danny then took off and followed after Donnie. Raph then asked, "But is it Don proof?"
Leo then contacted them through the Shell Cell, "Danny? Don? Can you hear me? Don!"
"I'm okay. No problem Leo" Donnie answered. Danny then shouted, "Donnie watch out!"
Donnie looked and saw he was about to hit the top of the bridge and quickly dodged out of the way. He then said, "Just forgot to compensate for the wind drag on my Bo staff"
They both flew around the sea port and Donnie said with a smile, "Now I know how you feel when you fly Danny. It's amazing bro"
Danny smiled and said, "Yeah. Flying is a good stress reliever for me"
They both then noticed some sort of whirl pool down at the river and then Danny reported to Leo, "Guys Donnie and I have picked up something strange happening down by the river"
"What is it?" Leo asked.
"It looks like they're searching for something under the water" Donnie answered. Leo then asked, "Who's searching?"
Donnie zoomed in on the night vision goggles and saw two tech guys at a large cannon wearing the same foot symbol on their uniforms. Donnie then answered, "It's our ninja buddies again"
He then zoomed in on the cannon and saw the sword in the middle of it powering the cannon and said, "They have that sword they stole rigged up to some vibrational cannon"
"Better get over here guys. We're over Pier 16" Danny said.
"We're on our way" Leo said as he and the others started heading to the port.
"We're going in for a closer…." Donnie began as he and Danny began flying in for a closer look but then both screamed as they got caught up in the energy beam.
"Don! Danny! What is it?!" Leo asked hearing their screams through the Shell Cell.
The energy shorted out Danny's powers and ripped a hole through Donnie's hang glider and they both were pushed away from the cannon and they both landed in the water and fell under. Leo, Raph and Mikey made it to Pier 16 and then Leo tried, "Don! Danny! Can either of you hear me?! Say something bros!"
There was no answer near the wreckage of Donnie's hang glider. They both then emerged from the water and took deep breaths, Danny was in his human form and they both coughed a little from being under water.
Donnie then communicated back to the others, "Man this water stinks!"
Danny laughed and added, "And this is coming from a couple of guys who live in a sewer"
The other smiled in relief and exclaimed while pumping their fists, "YES!"
Leo, Raph and Mikey got in closer near the cannon and then reported to Danny and Donnie, "We have a visual on the cannon. I only see two guys but that just means the others are hiding"
And hiding they were for as soon as Leo said those words, ninjas appeared from one of the ships and landed right in front of them and surrounded them with weapons in hands ready to fight them. Mikey then groaned, "I hate it when he's right!"
All three of them then pulled out their weapons and exclaimed together, "LET'S TURTLEISE THEM!"
The three of them then began to fight off against the ninjas. Leo jumped on one of the ships and delivered a split kick on a couple of them and then blocked a sword that was about to strike at him from above and then kicked the ninja off the ship.
Donnie and Danny climbed out of the water and then hid in the shadows of the pier but two ninjas had already spotted them and jumped down to attack them. Donnie knocked one of them with his staff into the water and Danny used his sword and broke the second ninja's one in half and then delivered a front snap kick right into his face which knocked him into the water.
Danny then changed back into his ghost form and gave Donnie a lift onto the ship above where the others were fighting and the two brothers stood back to back with their weapons ready to fight them off.
Raph started climbing up the rope heading towards the main sail, but a ninja landed on the platform and then sliced the rope sending Raph plummeting to the ground, but Raph stuck his sai into the wood of the mast just before he hit the ground.
"Why you…." Raph growled as the two ninja's jumped off the mast and surrounded him.
At the cannon, the two tech guys continued to send waves of energy down into the river and then watched as some sort of old metal suit appeared at the bottom. One of the tech guys then communicated through the radio, "We found what we're looking for. Bring in aerial support"
"Avast you scurvy sea dogs! Shiver me timbers!" Mikey exclaimed as he spun his nun chucks around holding off the ninja's coming towards him as he walked backwards. "Blow me down! Arghhh!"
He laughed but then stopped as he felt his back hit a wall and realised he was now trapped in a tight corner by the ninjas. He then looked at them nervously and said, "Okay about the blow me down part?"
But the ninjas came closer and were about to attack him but suddenly the sail fell down and trapped them under. Mikey looked up and smiled in relief as he saw Leo standing on the mast and revealed he was the one who had just saved Mikey's shell.
Mikey gave him a thumbs up and said, "Thanks bro"
A helicopter bearing the same symbol flew down towards the area of the river where the energy was still pushing away the water. It then lowered down a huge claw and grabbed onto the old metal suit covered in seaweed and tints of rust.
The two ninjas continued to circle around Raph with chain and sickle weapons. One of them then threw his chain at Raph, but he caught it with his sai and threw it away. He then said with a smirk, "Nice try dipstick!"
But he failed to the notice the second ninja then throw his chain, this time at his feet and it wrapped around his ankles and he yelped as he fell over the rail but stopped and hung there like was some kind of fish on a hook.
The second ninja then jumped down and was about to slice at Raph with the sickle but then Leo swung down on a rope from the mast and sliced the chain holding Raph in half while exclaiming, "Who says I never cut you a break?"
Raph yelped as he landed right on top of the ninja and crushed him. He stood back up and said as he spun his sais, "Not pretty but I'll take it"
Donnie and Danny were facing two ninjas each. Donnie blocked a strike from one of them and then knocked them away into a life boat with his staff, he then flipped over the second one and knocked him in the stomach with his staff causing him to stagger and then knocked him into the life boat with the other one.
One of them was about to attack Donnie from behind, but Danny phased through Donnie and blasted the ninja right into the life boat and then grabbed the forth one by his arm and twisted it around causing him to scream in pain and then knocked him out with the handle of his sword and threw him into the life boat.
The life boat then lowered down due to the weight and the four ninjas screamed as they fell into the water. Leo, Raph and Mikey joined them and then Leo said, "I think this team work effort has greatly improved"
"Schools not over yet" Donnie said as he pointed to the helicopter. "That's one cool chopper"
They then watched as it took the old metal suit and brought it inside the chopper. Mikey then asked, "What's up with barnacle Bill?"
"Whatever it is, it can't be good" Danny said.
The helicopter then flew off and Danny and the Turtles started running over to the cannon. The two tech guys turned off the cannon and the energy stopped. They started packing everything up when suddenly Leo appeared at the edge of the dock and said, "Now boys there's a small matter of some stolen property we need to discuss"
They both gasped in fright at the sight of Leo and then tried running away only to be cut off by Donnie who appeared at the other end and said, "Dudes! You really shouldn't be playing with such dangerous toys"
Raph then appeared next to him startling them more. They were about to run on the other side only to be cut off by Mikey who grinned at them. They were about to try one more corner but Danny appeared right in front of them.
"Sorry no escaping here" Danny said with a smirk.
One of them suddenly pulled out a laser and fired a shot at Mikey who just ducked out of the way. He was about to fire again when Danny kicked him to the ground but the laser accidently hit the computer controlling the cannon and it suddenly started up again, going haywire.
The pier started shaking due to the cannon malfunctioning. The tech guy went to the controls and tried to stop it but nothing was working.
"I CAN'T CONTROL IT!" The guy shouted. The other one then said as he pointed to the chopper, "Who cares?! We're leaving!"
The chopper came in close and the two tech guys jumped up and grabbed onto the helicopter legs and climbed in as it started flying off. Raph shouted, "THEY'RE GETTING AWAY!"
The cannon's head suddenly turned and its energy started hitting the pier and destroying it. Donnie then shouted, "I think we got bigger problems!"
They saw the ground started to crack and realised that if they don't stop the cannon, the entire South Side Seaport will go crumbling down into the water. Mikey then said, "Talk about bad vibes!"
"Not funny Mike!" Raph scolded. It wasn't the time for witty banter.
"Don, can you shut it down?" Leo asked with urgency.
"Well I might be able to disconnect the sword from the accelerator" Donnie began as he jumped on the cannon and opened up the engine part. "But crossing the power terminator could result in a feedback loop that might…"
"Donnie whatever! Let's just point this thing away from civilisation!" Leo cut in.
While Donnie got to work Danny, Leo, Raph and Mikey went to the other side of the cannon and pushed with all their might to try and get it away from the pier before it brought down the entire South Side Seaport.
They managed to move it a few inches but it was still heavy and proving difficult to push. They all then suddenly heard the sound of a megaphone, "THIS IS THE POLICE! YOU ONE THE PIER! STOP WHERE YOU ARE!"
They turned and saw a police helicopter with a spotlight heading right towards them. Raph then pressed, "Hurry up Don! Before we end up on America's Most Wanted reptiles and half-ghosts!"
"Almost there!" Donnie shouted back and then connected two wires together.
"Uh oh!" Donnie suddenly shouted for the cannon didn't shut down but started spinning around. They all ducked before they could get hit by the machine.
"We gotta steady this thing!" Leo called out.
Danny saw a crowbar nearby and then picked it and up and flew over to the machine and lodged it in the wheel stopping it from moving. Donnie then walked over and grabbed the sword but then yelped at it shocked him and held his hand in pain.
Leo then passed his the protective glove and said, "Here try this!"
Donnie put on the glove and then grabbed the sword and pulled it out of the cannon without getting shocked or burned by it. The machine then roared and really started going haywire and then Donnie shouted, "LET'S GET OUT OF HERE!"
They all then ran away and made it out of the way in time just as the platform broke and the cannon fell into the water and exploded underneath the water causing a huge wave. They stopped and then Mikey said, "Woah! Awesome light show"
They all then heard the police coming closer to the pier and with that they all fled the scene and disappeared into the shadows before the spotlight could catch them.
They brought the sword back to the lair and handed it to Master Splinter. He held it with the protective glove and observed it. He then concluded, "The design is unmistakably eleventh century Japanese but the metal is unlike anything I have ever seen. Clearly there is more to this sword than meets the eye"
"Best that it remain out of the wrong hands" He finished as he placed the sword on a handle.
They all then left to retire for the night but before Master Splinter went to bed Danny entered his room and sat down before him. Master Splinter then asked, "What troubles you my son?"
"Master Splinter when we first fought these ninjas at the museum, I froze when I saw that symbol up close and had a memory flashback from when I was two years old" Danny answered. "I think that whatever happened to my mother had something to do with these ninjas but I can't figure it out. I just want to know, do you know something about these ninjas?"
Master Splinter was silent and then said, "I can't say right now Daniel for it is not the time. Please trust me when I say that some things are better not said until the time is right"
Danny was silent but then nodded and said, "As you wish sensei"
Back at the building with the foot symbol the two tech guys from the pier stood before the man who was glaring at them with rage. He then said as he stood up, "For a long time, longer than you can possible imagine my enemies have managed to elude me"
He then gestured to the suit they had collected from the river, "Here at last is proof of their presence in this city"
He then roared as he kicked the glass case where the sword once stood, "And all it cost me was the Sword of Tengu!"
"Master there were extenuating circumstances" One of them said. "These four strange creatures and this weird boy came out of no-where"
The man held the infrared image of Danny and the Turtles he had from StockTronics and asked as he showed it to them, "Are these the creature and the boy you saw?"
They both looked at the image and answered with a nod together, "Oh yes"
"That will be all" The man said.
The two tech guys bowed before their master and then started leaving the room, the door opened however to reveal Hun who grabbed them and took them away to be punished under his master's orders.
The man placed the image down on the table and then picked up a gauntlet and stabbed it in fury as he said, "These freakish thorns in my side must be removed permanently!"
THE END
