Hey! I'm back, Thanks you to BakaClara, KaraTheFanGirl, Datninjaturtle + fireworks in the night for reviewing the previous chapter.

Well, here's where the action starts. Hope you all enjoy.

See chapter 1 for the disclaimer.

"Come on!" Donnie yelled, from the living room. "It's 8 o clock! What is wrong with you turtles?" He face-palmed and muttered into his hand. "I knew I should have reminded them ten minutes ago…"

"Where are you going, my son?" Purple jumped upon hearing his Pops voice and turned. Splinter was standing in the kitchen doorway with a cheese sandwich in one hand and a glass of milk in the other.

"Er…we're…" Donnie's mind went blank and he cursed himself inwardly.

"We're going to have a go at patrolling the city." Leo said, walking into the room with Raph and Mikey in tow.

Splinter couldn't have looked more surprised if they'd told him they invited Meatsweats down for a game of cards. "But why?"

Leo shrugged. "Crimes rising. Police are stretched. We scare the shell out of people as a general rule. Maybe if they see us bearing down on them they'll stop."

There was a pause and then. "My sons." Splinter said, gravely. "While I think what you are suggesting is a good idea, you must be careful. You must help people from the shadows. You are ninjas, you cannot help people in the same way the police can."

"Don't worry Pops." Raph said, confidently. "We'll be careful."

With that the four of them set of, all breathing a sigh of relief when they were out the man-hole cover. "Geez, I hate lying to Pops." Mikey said, looking visibly uncomfortable.

Leo gave another sigh and wringed his hands. "Well yeah…but it's just for one night. Right, Donnie?"

Donnie gave a sharp sigh as he felt the other three's eyes on the back of his heads. "C'mon let's go. Sooner we get this over with the better."

Ten minutes later they were on the roof of one of twenty-sixth avenue's numerous flats, looking down at the small un-assuming pharmacy.

"So? How are we going to get in?" Donnie asked, lowering his goggles.

Raph gave him a look. "You mean you've brought us all this way without knowing how we're going to get in!?"

"I have been doing other things, Raphael."

"Like what!?"

"Does the smoothie machine ring a bell, Raph?"

Red's cheeks went the same couler as his mask and he glared daggers.

Mikey held his hands up. "Alright, break it up, guys-"

"I could portal us in."

Blue's brothers went quiet and looked at him. For a moment they'd forgotten he was there.

Leo caught their looks and said. "Well, I do have an Odachi sword, don't I? And that will get us in without us being seen and shouldn't set of any alarms?" He looked at his twin for confirmation on that last point.

Donnie thought and nodded.

Leo stood up and motioned for his brothers to do the same. "Well then…" He swung the sword, causing a blue portal to appear. "…Who's going first?"

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Leo leapt out the portal and landed expertly on his feet. "Hey! That wasn't too bad. Come on in the waters fine." He called into the blue glow.

Thirty seconds later his brothers were by his side.

"Wow. Where are we? And don't say pharmacist." Mikey added, seeing Purple about to open his mouth.

Donnie grinned and explained. "We're in the backroom. This is where they keep the stock. Okay…" He removed a piece of paper from his belt and looked at it. "We need Benzodiazepines, Ramelteon, Anti-Depressents-"

"-We do not need Anti-Depressents." His twin said sternly as Raph and Mikey started searching the shelves. "I do not need anti-depressents."

Donnie rolled his eyes and turned to start searching the shelves.

Leo glared at the back of his twins head and grabbed a basket of the top of a nearby stack. He meant to do it with grace and poise, but instead managed to cause the pile to collapse. "Shell!" He hissed as the noise rebounded round the room.

He turned to see the horror on his siblings face. Raph opened his mouth – no doubt to remind Leo to be quiet, when they heard a noise from outside the door.

No words where necessary as they looked at each other and hid.

The shop-owner opened the door and looked around. Seeing the baskets he headed over to them, causing Raph, who was hiding behind one of the shelves to edge further back into the wall. He hissed. The pressure on his spikes was uncomfortable.

The shop keeper, however, seemed to be taking his time, leisurely picking the baskets up and re-stacking them, before taking one more glance around and heading out.

About a minute after the door was closed and the turtles were sure he was not coming back they each unfolded themselves from their hiding places and regrouped in the middle of the room.

"Ah, my shell…" Raph muttered massaging the top of said shell.

Mikey said what they were all thinking. "That was to close."

Leo nodded and said. "Okay, we can't just go around grabbing things off the shelves. Where are the medicines we need, Twinsie?"

As his brothers all looked at him, Purple rolled his eyes and said, with a certain degree of fondness. "Anti-Depressents over towards the back, Ramalteon over by the baskets and Benzodiazepines-" He trailed off a look of pure panic flashed over his face.

With a feeling of dread the other brothers turned slowly to see the shop-keeper standing in the doorway.
