Chapter 8:

Leonardo sighed. He hated seeing Mikey this way, but leaving was the best thing to do. The blue turtle turned to Twilight. "It was nice meeting you, but we really should go now."

Twilight slumped her head. "Alright. I'll open the portal."

"Thank you," Leo replied.

The other turtles stood and said their goodbyes to the ponies. Pinkie Pie burst into tears, and Mikey wasn't far from joining her.

Twilight shut her eyes tightly and grunted, her horn glowing with the shimmery light again. The portal appeared in front of her, a swirling lavender vortex with a few tiny metal scraps flying through from the other side.

Donnie picked up one of the scraps and gasped. "These metal bits are Kraang storage devices! The portal's opened up in either TCRI or Dimension X. We can't go through!"

Leo had to think fast. He had the choice to risk being stuck in Dimension X and probably dying along with his brothers, or stay in Equestria.

"Close the portal!" Leo called to Twilight, whose horn's glowing had intensified. She gasped and opened her eyes, and the portal disappeared.

"What happened?" Twilight asked breathily. "Why didn't you go through?"

"The portal opened in a different place," Donnie explained. "It was either a different building or a different dimension altogether, but either way the Kraang were there."

"Oh, no!" Twilight exclaimed. "I must have gotten the coordinates wrong!"

"Well, what now?" Raphael asked nonchalantly.

"I don't think I have the strength to perform that spell again. I think you're stuck here!"

The turtles gasped, and each of their eyes grew to look like a pony's.

Michelangelo was the first to speak: "There'd better be pizza here!"


Okay, I'm REALLY sorry for such a short chapter, but I promise you I'll make up for it! I've already finished writing the next chapter, and it's a doosey! I'll post it tomorrow to avoid confusing more people than necessary.

Please review! I love reviews and they help me know what you want in the story.
