Hi guys! Just enjoy this chapter, okay? But do read my note at the end of this chapter. Enjoy!

(Tigress POV)

I knew it was quite obvious that we had to split up on the two roads. But I was starting to think that she did it only so that Po and I could be alone, which was making me a little nervous. Presently, Po was quieter than a rock. Very unusual in his case. Usually at a time like this he'd be asking me what my favorite colour is, and every time I would say that I don't have a favorite colour. It annoyed me when we were on a mission and he wouldn't shut up, but now I didn't like the silence either.

"Po?" I began.

"What? What is it?"

"I'll say it – I lied. I do have a favorite colour. You were right."

"Really? What is it?" Po asked excitedly.

"Jade." I answered. It felt like a huge weight off my brain.

"Jade? Is it because of the Jade Palace?"

"Yes but that is not the only reason. It's also someone."

"Oh…" Po moped with a hint of jealousy in his voice. "Who is this lucky person?"

"No. It's my best friend."

"Are you referring to Viper or me?" Po asked. "Oh forget I asked!" he said laughing. Personally, I didn't see what was so funny. He sounded jealous a moment ago.

"You never told me what your favorite colour is." I said, deciding to lay it on him.

He looked at me and smiled. "It's orange."

I laughed and turned my head away. Who could've thought that Po's silliness would end up being so charming to me!

In sort of a strange way, I liked the snow too. The snowflakes were pretty, and the snow made the mountain sparkle.

"I never thought that snow could be so… beautiful." I commented.

"Yeah… it really is beautiful, right? But how about a little colour?"

At first, I thought this was Po talking, but when I turned around and looked at him, he just shrugged.

But then, who was this talking!?

"But how would snow look in green, or blue, or maybe in yellow? Wait, yellow and snow – No go!"

And finally this rambling dramble came right between me and Po. We gasped and stepped away.

"Am I right?" It asked.

I didn't know what the heck this was. Without thinking, I screamed and kicked it. But I may have accidently kicked it's head off. And that head landed in Po's hands. Imagine!

"Hi!" The head said to Po.

"You're creepy." Po said and tossed the head to me.

"I don't want it!" I yelled and tossed it back to him.

And thus we were tossing the head back and forth.

"C'mon! It's just a head!'

"Grab it!"

"Get it away from me!"

"Please don't drop my head." The headless body was walking between us.

Presently the head was in my hands. "EW! EW! THE BODY!" I yelled and threw the head on the body. It landed upside down.

"Wait, what am I looking at here?" Why are you guys hanging off the earth like bats?" It asked.

"Okay, wait one second." I said. I bent down and turned over it's head.

"Oh! Thank you!" it said.

"You're welcome." I said, smiling.

"I just felt like my whole life got turned upside down."

Po came up. "May I ask, who and… what you are?" he asked this creature.

"Well, we got off on a bad start, so let's start over - Hello everyone! I'm Rakka Pakka! And I'm a rockman. And what's your name?"

"I'm Tigress."

"And who's this big pillow?"

"He's a panda. He's called Po."

"Hi Tigress! Hi Po!" Rakka Pakka said happily.

"Rakka Pakka? Did Ramona build you?" I asked.

"Yeah, why?"

"And is she on this mountain?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Can you take us to her?"

"Yeah, why?"

"I'll tell you why!" Po said. "Ramona has been a threat to the turtles for more than a decade now. We have to finish her."

"I wouldn't set out to find her if I were you." Rakka Pakka said. "She's got whole army at her command. She's got those big bat thingies, humongous worm thingies and now she's created Rock Golems. I was one of them. But I quit her service."

"We need to find Ramona. Please take us to her." I said.

"If you have to go, alright. Follow me!"

"Lead the way!" Po said.

With that we followed Rakka Pakka to where he was taking us.

Rakka Pakka was actually kinda cute. I think I may have overreacted a little when I first saw him. And he was quite cheerful.

We followed him for a while, until we reached a cave.

"This way everyone!" He chirped. "And here we are! Her cave!"

We entered the cave. But it was empty.

"This place is empty Rakka Pakka." I said turning to him.

"What, but! She was here the last time I saw her!" He stuttered.

"Tigress, check this out." Po said.

I looked at what Po was looking at. It was what Amoly was looking for. The Stone Crystal.

"Whoa…" I gasped.

"Ramona used it to create her every monster. It's powerful." Rakka Pakka said.

(Normal POV)

Tigress knew she wasn't supposed to touch it. But as the old saying goes – Curiosity killed the cat. Tigress, as if in a trance, touched the crystal.

(Po's POV)

I stared at the crystal. It was glowing even brighter now. I shielded my eyes. I figured this was the same crystal glowing on the peak of the mountain earlier. But how did it ever get here? Was it Ramona? Does she know we're here?

"Think maybe we should get out of here for now and tell Amoly?" I asked Tigress.

Just then, there was a bright explosion of light. Some magic hit me in the chest, and we were all thrown back in the explosion.

I groaned and tried to get up. But my chest hurt, and I found it hard to get up on my feet.

(A few moments earlier, Tigress had touched the crystal, causing it's magic to be unleashed with a big bang.)

"Po!" Tigress yelled as she helped me up. "Are you alright?"

"Yeah, yeah… I'm fine." I said, as she pulled me up on my feet.

Suddenly the crystal dished out a huge Rock Golem.

"You see! That's what I was talking about!" Rakka Pakka said.

"RUN!" I yelled.

We stormed out of the cave and not a moment later, golem destroyed it. Golem picked up Rakka Pakka and threw him on a mound of snow.

That made me mad! I made a snowball and yelled "It is not nice to throw people!" I was gonna throw it, but Tigress stopped me.

"Whoa whoa whoa feisty pants! Do. Not. Do. That!" Tigress said as she held my throwing arm.

But the minute she let go… I threw it. That made Golem mad.

Tigress grabbed a long rope she saw at the opening of the now destroyed cave. "NOW RUN YOU MORON!" she yelled at me. And we ran. I only ran after scooping up Rakka Pakka.

The three of us ran as fast as we could until we put some distance between us and the Golem. Tigress tied the rope to a rock. But at that moment, the Golem caught up with us. Seriously, how does that thing run so fast!?

The impact broke a mound of snow under Rakka's feet and he fell down.

"Rakka Pakka!" I yelled, as me and Tigress lowered ourselves on the rope.

"KEEP GOOOOOIIIINNNNGGGGG!" Rakka Pakka yelled.

We were still lowering ourselves on the rope, but then the Golem began pulling the rope up.

(Normal POV)

Golem began to pull the rope up. Tigress, seeing that there was no other choice, cut the rope with her claws.

Both of them screamed as they fell. Within a few seconds they landed. But they weren't dead. Thank Goodness! This is because the snow was soft, and they landed unhurt.

"Hey, this was like landing on a pillow." Tigress commented.

"Oh! Rakka Pakka!" she exclaimed.

Rakka Pakka was there in front of her yelling. "I can't feel my legs! I CAN'T FEEL MY LEGS!"

Po came out of the snow. "Those are my legs."

"Oh…" Rakka said. "Hey do me a favor grab my butt!"

Po pulled Rakka out of the snow and put him on the rest of his body. "Oh that feels better." Rakka sighed.

Tigress was struggling to get out of the snow. Po pulled her out.

"Thank you." She said. "How's your head?" she asked as she touched Po's head.

"Owww! Ah! Nahh… I got a thick skull." Po said.

"I don't have a skull." Rakka said. "Or bones?"

"You're made of rocks." Po countered.

"We better get going." Tigress said. "We have to find Amoly and Mikey."

Po nodded. "Let's move!"

That's all there is for this chapter. How about some peeks for the next, eh?

Peek 1:

"Did you guys have an accident or something?" Amoly asked him.

"I think we sort of did." Po replied.

Peek 2:

"And you are-?"

"Oh! I'm Amoly. And this is Mikey. We're friends with Po and Tigress."

Unfortunately guys, my next chapter will now only come a few months later. I'm telling you this so that you guys won't have to check back every single day for a new chapter. You can see my YouTube channel 'Bella Akemi Hamato' instead. It's the only channel with that name. Although, I can upload the rest of the chapters sooner, and a lot faster, if someone would tell me how I can upload stories from my android phone (using MI Note 4G). If I could upload from my phone, you'll get plenty of stuff from me in a short time. Otherwise, you may have to wait six months for each chapter.

Now guys, I also want to give out my story ASAP! But to do that, I need to use my phone to upload stories.

Please tell me if you have any ideas on how I can upload from my phone.

Til' then – Keep dreaming!
