NMNT Season 3 Chapter 4: Space Invaders Part 2: Worlds Collide

-The Skies above New York City: Sunset-

Zanramon's personal space cruiser screamed across the sky as the five brothers headed back to the lair for some much needed rest.

"Well guys that's that, the Triceraton's are leaving," said Leonardo as he congratulated himself and the others, "We did it!"

"You know," said Donatello, "saving the human race gives me a warm feeling in my shell."

"Amen to that," said Naruto.

-The 2nd Time Around-

April and Casey listened to the news on the radio as they began to pick up the broken sections of the wall in her shop.

"Reports are coming in from all across the world: the aliens are pulling out. It is over and Earth has been spared. While authorities aren't sure of why these aliens, or Triceratons as they called themselves, pulled out or what they were looking for but one thing is for sure: it's good to be alive."

"Alright, the guys did it. They got Don and your boyfriend while kicking those freaky Triceratons' asses back into space," Casey said happily and with a smile as he set down another section of wall. He then looked over towards April who was also setting down a section of wall; however she had a worried expression etched on her face.

"Yo April what's with the long face? I just said somethin' happy, didn't you hear the news?" Casey asked.

"Yeah I did," April replied with worry (and maybe a bit of fear) as she faced the vigilante, "but I can't shake off this feeling that things have only just begun. I feel as if something terrible is going to happen."

-The Skies above New York City-

Zanramon's ship still continued to scream across the sky.

"Naruto," said Leo, "the last thing we need is to be the center of attention. Just land this thing so we can go home."

"Relax Leo," said Raphael, "besides we're flyin' in a stolen alien space craft, it's a little hard to keep on the down low."

Just then, Michelangelo's Shell Cell rang.

"This is the Mikey Party Line, what's up?" said Mikey

"Michelangelo?" Professor Honeycutt answered on the other line.

"Professor Honeycutt? No way! Hang on, I'll put you on speaker," said Mikey as he pushed a button and set the phone on the control panel, "we were just talking about you, your ears must be burning."

"Not so; my ears are a steel alloy, it would have to be over 25,000 degrees Fahrenheit for combustion to happen," the professor replied.

"Um, that's not exactly what I meant," said Mikey.

"Professor, you're interstellar signal is so clear," said Don in amazement, "it's like you're right here in New York City."

"Well I am 2.1 miles away from your current location," said the professor, "at the site of the T.C.R.I Building in fact."

"WHAT?!" the brothers screamed, "here on Earth?!"

"Oh shit," said Raph.

"We'll be right there Professor, don't move," said Naruto as he got his bearings and maneuvered the ship towards the aforementioned site, "but first we have to hide this thing and fast."

-The T.C.R.I. Building Pit-

The five brothers snuck stealthily into the compound, hopping over a wooden fence to do so, and found the professor sitting there as if he hadn't a care in the world.

"Ah, it's so good to see my friends again," he said as they approached him.

"I wish we could say the same but the Triceratons are looking for you," said Naruto.

"I know," said the professor as he stood up, "that is why I am here, to give myself up. I have just broadcast a message to the Triceraton's Prime Leader."

"YOU WHAT?!" the brothers shouted.

-Outer Space-

The vast fleet of Triceraton Motherships as well as the Triceraton Homewrold prepared to jump into hyperspace.

-Triceraton Homeworld: Command Center-

"Prepare to make the final calculations for the jump into hyperspace and prepare the engines for full ion burn," Zanramon commanded.

"Countdown sequence initiated," said a computerized voice.

"Sir," said a worker at a computer console, "there is an incoming message marked 'Urgent'." He then decoded the message and exclaimed, "Sir, it's the Fugitoid!"

"What?! By the Horn of Haggalear stop everything and put it on screen," Zanramon shouted. The message then began to play on a screen in front of him.

"Prime Leader Zanramon, you have hunted me across galaxies and shown no mercy to those who stood in your way. This cannot continue; I am here on Earth to surrender myself to you and spare countless billions of lives."

The message ended there.

"Import that transmission and scramble all fighters; I want our troops down there immediately!" Zanramon commanded as every loyal man beneath him obeyed the order to the letter.

"Bring me that damn robot's metal hide," he muttered.

-New York City, the T.C.R.I. pit: Sunset-

"Professor are you crazy?" Don exclaimed, "do you have any idea what the Tricratons will do to you?"

"Not to mention your knowledge of Utrom technology," Leo chimed in.

"Never fear my friends," said the professor as he pointed to his head, "I've already wiped my memories clean of any vital information."

"But Professor," Naruto protested, "they'll rip you apart finding that out."

"I'm rather hoping they do," Professor Honeycutt replied, "I have a little surprise for them."

"Great," said Raph, "just what we need; the Professor's lost his shell."

"We'll think of something," said Leo, "Don, how long until the Triceratons get here?"

Don then looked up at the sky, his eyes widening as he answered, "Oh I'd say roughly about TWO SECONDS!" Indeed, Triceratons on jetpacks and sled ships came flying down and began firing their lasers. The five brothers then formed a protective circle around Professor Honeycutt while the turtles took out their weapons and Naruto raised his fists.

"I guess they got my message," said the professor.

"Keep your head down professor," said Mikey. But the robot with human emotions had other ideas as he got out of the circle and waved his arms.

"Yoo-hoo!" he called in a beckoning tone, "I'm over here!"

"Professor!" Leo protested as he grabbed onto the robot and ducked down alongside him to dodge some laser blasts.

"What the hell are you doing?!" Leo asked.

"I told you, I'm giving myself up," the professor replied.

"You're crazy professor!" Don exclaimed as he and the other brothers backed away from the raining laser blasts.

"We can't let you do this!" exclaimed Naruto. Just then some Triceratons landed.

"Surrender the Fugitoid, now," said a Triceraton. A Triceraton on a jetpack then fired several laser blasts, forcing the brothers to jump out of the way. However, leaping out of the way also made the blasts blow apart a hole in the wooden fence surrounding the pit which also showed a sewer manhole just a few feet away.

"Guys," said Leo, "the horn heads just gave us an exit."

Professor Honeycutt, however, still wanted to commit suicide by turning himself in as he shouted, "Over here! Here I am!"

"Raph, get the professor," said Naruto as they started to make a bee line for the manhole while Raph fireman-carried the robot over his back.

"Put me down, please," the professor protested as laser blasts still rained down, "you must let me go. I must surrender."

"Sorry professor," Raph replied, "we ninja brothers don't know the meaning of surrender."

"Yeah," Mikey agreed as he added, "we never bothered to look it up in the dictionary."

"Well, it's a verb that means to- watch out!" Professor Honeycutt started to say as a Triceraton on a jet pack made the heroes stop in their tracks.

"You should've done as you were told," he said as he aimed his gun. The five heroes just leapt in the air and either punched him in the face or sent him flying to a wall with a well-placed kick to his abdomen. Don then quickly opened up the man hole (have I mentioned that the Triceratons have/are still raining lasers on the five heroes who have to constantly dodge them) and all the brothers leapt in with Naruto shutting the manhole cover.

-The Sewers-

The brothers kept running away as the robot, who was still being carried by Raph, protested, "My friends, I assure you, I have not dried my circuits. I know what I am doing. You must let me go! I've calculated the probabilities, I'm 99.993% certain that my plan will work!"

"But at what cost professor," said Leo as they all slowed down to a halt and let the professor be released from Raph's grip.

"Just give us some time to think of another plan," said Naruto.

"Now please stop giving them our location," said Leo.

"Oh but I'm not; they found us unaided," the robot replied.

"But how?" Mikey asked.

"Well,"'said Don with some slight hesitation, "that actually may be my fault. I sorta showed them how to scan the Earth for Professor Honeycutt's positronic energy signature. It was the only way to convince them that the professor wasn't on Earth."

"Well he's on Earth now," said Raph.

"Don," Leo asked as the brothers readied their weapons, "Just how accurate is this scan? Miles? City blocks?"

Don paused with hesitancy before simply answering, "Inches."

And sure enough, a sled ship carrying Commander Mozar, as well as several Triceratons on jetpacks, made its way towards the heroes. The brothers then took a very deep breath and hid themselves and the professor underwater.

"The positronic energy signature grows stronger this way," said Mozar as they closed in on the robot's location.

Professor Homeycutt then popped out of the water and waved his arms while shouting, "Hello, Triceratons over here!"

Mozar then lowered the sled ship to talk to the professor.

"Hello there," greeted the professor.

"Greetings Professor Honeycutt," Mozar replied, "we've been looking for you for some time."

"I'm glad you've found me, it saved me quite a walk," said the robot.

"Get him," Mozar commanded to two soldiers, "the Prime Leader will be quite pleased." The soldiers then leapt down and prepared to grab the robot. However, Naruto and Mikey then leapt out of the water, ambushed the two Triceratons and knocked them away rather quickly.

"Professor next time we drag you underwater and tell you to hide, hide!" Naruto excliamed. The two brothers then dragged him back underwater as the Triceraton soldiers started to fire their lasers.

"Cease fire!" Mozar shouted, "we must capture the professor unharmed." He then took out a positronic tracking device and saw the professor being led away. "Follow the signal, don't let them escape!" he commanded, "Move out!"

The soldiers obeyed and headed out in the direction their tracking devices pointed to with Mozar flying right behind them.

"You can run professor, but you cannot hide," he muttered.

-With the Five Heroes-

The brothers ran as fast as they could to get some distance between them and the Triceratons, much to the dismay of Professor Honeycutt (who was being fireman-carried by Naruto).

"You're going the wrong way," he protested, "the Triceratons are back there; now really this is too much. Triceratons, help! I'm over here!"

"SHUT UP!" the brothers cried out as they rounded some tight corners before leaping off a ledge and hiding behind it in order to catch their breaths.

"We've got to *pant* *pant* keep moving," Leo panted in slight exhaustion, "The Triceratons won't stop for a second."

"My friends, you must let me implement my plan," said Professor Honeycutt, "I cannot allow the Triceraton's rampage to continue because of me. I have made up my mind and you can't stop me." He then forced himself away from Naruto and began to run towards the ledge and began to jump up and down while shouting repeatedly, "Triceratons, over here! Take me to your prime leader!"

"We got to stop him for his own good," said Leo.

"Don do something," said Mikey.

Don then panicked and in a flash he ripped the robot's head from its body.

"Wow," said Raph, "that wasn't extreme."

"I panicked alright?" Don retorted.

"Hang on guys," said Naruto, "this just gives me an idea. Don how much time do you need to mask the professor's signal?"

"Enough to keep us busy for the next twenty minutes, why?" Don replied while Naruto just gave a knowing smile.

-With the Triceratons-

Mozar (who is now inexplicably in the front this time) checked his tracking device as he led his troops through the sewers.

"Come on men, the Fugitoid is this way," he said. They then stopped in a fork in the path way that showed three paths.

"The signal is strongest here," said Mozar, "He should be right-." But before he could say anything else the signal turned into five signals.

"What?!" he exclaimed, "five signals, but I don't understand! Divide into units; follow all five signals. Take the robot alive and kill anyone who gets in your way."

-The Lair-

Splinter was busy meditating when a Mikey came running in.

"Michelangelo?"

"Master Splinter, have you seen my hover board?"

Mikey started to rummage through everything in the lair.

"Michelangelo, what is going on? Where are your brothers?"

"Sorry, sensei but I'm kinda in a hurry."

He then spotted the hover board.

"Aha, come to papa."

As he got it, Splinter walked up to him, blocked his path and said, "Michelangelo I demand an explanation."

"No can do Master Splinter," Mikey replied as he got on the hover board, "but if I don't get outta here fast, you're gonna have some very rude house guests. We'll explain everything later I promise."

And he sped out of the lair.

"Michelangelo!" Splinter called out, "Where are your brothers?! You must-." But he stopped himself as he looked on in worry.

-The Sewers-

Mikey sped through the sewers as fast as his hover board would allow. He then stopped in front of a hole and reached in and brought out an arm belonging to Professor Honeycutt. "Climb on professor we gotta fly," he said.

-With Raph-

Raph got on his Shell Cycle (which was located, along with the other Shell Cycles and the Battle Shell, in the abandoned garage) and put on his helmet.

"Alright, now that we got us some wheels," he said as he positioned the professor's legs to sit behind him while starting up the Shell Cycle, "you better hold on tight professor!"

He then opened the garage door and sped away into the setting sun.

-With Naruto-

Some Triceratons wandered through the sewers as they closed in on a signal. However, as they rounded a corner to trap the robot, they found nothing there. The water was too shallow for anything to hide beneath it and there were no big objects to hide behind.

"Bah," said a Triceraton, "this piece of junk must be malfunctioning. Let us press forward."

As the group of Triceratons disappeared from sight, Naruto appeared from out of thin air holding the professor's torso.

"Man I love Earth Style: Camouflage Jutsu," he said, "Now let's head up to the surface shall we Professor Honeycutt?"

-With Leo-

On the surface of an alley in the streets of New York City, Leo pushed open a manhole cover and peered left then right.

"The coast looks clear," he said as he brought up the other arm that belonged to the robot, "come on professor, we have to keep moving."

-With Don-

Don currently was walking around in a junk yard holding on to the head of Professor Honeycutt.

"Donatello this doesn't feel right," said Professor Honeycutt, "Not only am I spread out all over town, but I'm still no closer to achieving my goal."

"Well you can blame Naruto for this plan; besides, your plan is too risky," Don replied, "we can't let the Triceratons have you. The guys are going to keep the heat off us as long as they can, but if you don't help us the Triceratons will catch them and kill them into obliteration."

"I...I don't want you or your brother hurt," Professor Honeycutt admitted, "I...I will help you."

"Thank you," said Don as he looked all around and muttered, "Now where did I leave that thing?"

"Where did you leave what?" the robot head asked.

"I left something hidden here that can help us," Don replied before noticing a tall four-sided wall of junk cars. "There it is!" he exclaimed.

"You expect that a wall of deteriorating land vehicles will help us?" the robot head asked.

"No," said Don as he walked through an entrance hidden by a large car door and showed the professor a Foot Helicopter, "I expect that this armored air vehicle will help us." He then got inside, fired up the helicopter's engines and took off into the New York City skies.

"Now hopefully this helicopter that my brothers and I 'borrowed' from the Shredder will throw the Triceratons off our track," said Don as he set the head into the seat on his right side while he flew the helicopter, "they'll be looking for us on the ground."

But as luck would have it, Don was proven wrong when a Triceraton sled ship carrying Mozar and two Triceraton soldiers appeared in front of them forcing the purple eye mask wearing turtle to stop.

"Or not," Don muttered.

"I don't know how you managed to confuse our scanners," said Mozar, "but you will not live long enough to explain."

"I'll try to shake them," said Don as he formulated a plan with the robot, "you just get to work on masking that signal."

"Righty-oh," the professor replied as Don then violently maneuvered the helicopter to avoid the laser blasts the three Triceratons were firing while flying as fast as the helicopter could.

-With Mikey-

Mikey breezed through the sewers with ease. Not even the lone Triceraton on a jetpack that was blocking his path slowed him down.

"Hey ugly," Mikey called out, "talk to the damn hand!" He then rammed into the alien while also slapping him hard with the robot arm (both managed to knock down the Triceratops alien). However, his troubles weren't over yet, for there was a group of Triceratons on a sled ship that began to fire their laser blasts. Mikey just smirked with a knowing smile as he flew over their heads and into an area that narrowed the further you ventured. The orange eye-mask turtle then went up to the surface through a narrow pipe while the Triceratons that were stupidly following him slammed their sled ship into the entrance of the pipe, making it explode as the aliens leapt for cover.

-New York City Streets: Night-

Leo peered down from a rooftop and saw a lone Triceraton on a jetpack in an alley.

"Oh dear!" he called out while imitating the professor's voice, "I'm over here and it's quite
extraordinary." Leo then dropped the arm and hid himself just as the Triceraton flew up to assess the situation before noticing the lone arm.

As the alien picked up the arm, Leo smirked as he took out his Katanas, leapt in the air and slashed down on the jetpack while kicking the alien into a wall of a rooftop stairway entrance.

"One down, ten thousand more to go," said Lo as he put away his Katanas. Then he picked up the arm and leapt off the roof top while saying, "Come on professor."

-With Raph-

Raph was speeding down on the streets without a care in the world as he bought time for Don. But as he passed an intersection, multiple Triceratons on jetpacks came flying in from his left. Noticing this, Raph proceeded to drive into a dike (where river water would flow into the sea if it became too high) and accelerate even faster.

Meanwhile, high on a roof top, one of Bishop's agents was peering through a highly advanced sniper scope.

"Han to Bishop: target is in sight. Requesting permission to fire sir," said the agent.

"Permission granted," said Bishiop.

The agent then aimed at the Triceraton, who was about to yank Raph off of his Shell Cycle, and fired.

It was a direct hit and the Triceraton went down with one shot.

"What the hell?" Raph muttered as he thought nothing of what just happened and continued to speed away.

Up on the roof top, the agent reported in, "Han to Bishop: intervention successful. Our target has the robot on board; sighting confirmed twelve quadrants."

-With Bishop-

From high in a parking garage Bishop (who's in a high tech mobile command center) replied, "Message received, continue observation." He then closed that communication line and opened another as he said, "We have confirmation, the five creatures are in possession of the Fugitoid and the Triceratons are closing in. Countermeasures are in place; rest assured my friend, both of us will get what we're after (he then says this next part in a Cajun accent) I guarantee."

-With Don-

Don swayed and swerved the helicopter left and right as he avoided the laser blasts from Mozar and his soldiers.

"Donatello I'm ready," said Professor Honeycutt, "I finished creating an alternative sine wave that will nullify the signal and make me invisible to tracking."

"Perfect," said Don, "now all we have to do is broadcast it."

-With Leo-

Leo leapt from roof top to roof top as his Shell Cell rang. He then stopped for a moment to answer it before continuing to leap from roof top to roof top.

"Leo, I found a way to cloak the professor's signal; get to the rendezvous stat," said Don.

"I'm on my way," Leo replied as he abruptly stopped at the edge of a roof top and saw two Triceratons on jetpacks fly up to him, "but first I have a couple of things to take care of."

One started to fire at Leo's hand, blasting the arm to fly behind the turtle. Leo then leapt in the air and double kicked the Triceraton straight into an apartment window. Leo then looked behind him and saw that the other Triceraton had picked up the arm. Leo quickly ran to him grabbed to arm and kicked the alien to the ledge. However the Triceraton would not let go of the arm.

"Can't we just be friends?" Leo asked as he punched the alien in the face, making him let go of the arm.

"Nooooooooo!" the Triceraton yelled as he fell down into an alley dumpster while making the lids close on him.

-With Raph-

As the red eye-mask wearing turtle sped past an open manhole, Mikey popped out, bringing with him Naruto and three Triceratons.

"Coming through!" the two brothers on a hover board yelled.

"Nice entrance guys, but so much for splittin' up," said Raph.

"Well it's kinda hard to shake off flying dinosaurs when they can track your every move," Mikey replied.

"Besides," said Naruto as they all started to avoid the laser blasts, "I just got a call from Don saying we need to meet up at the rendezvous point."

-With Don-

As Don flew low into the city, he saw multiple wires and cables holding up a traffic light which gave him an idea to finally shake loose Mozar and his two soldiers. He started to fly towards those hazards and at the last moment he pitched the nose of the helicopter up and avoided the cables. Mozar and his men, however, did not meet the same fate as the sled ship crashed and fell to the ground.

Mozar then picked himself up and shouted angrily, "RRRAAAAAAGGGGGHHH!"

Just then another sled ship appeared to offer assistance.

"Quickly, don't lose them!" Mozar commanded as he and his men got on and started to chase the helicopter again.

-With Raph, Mikey and Naruto-

"Come on Raph hurry!" Naruto shouted as they barreled down the streets with the three Triceratons on jetpacks hot on pursuit. They then turned into an alley way, ditched their vehicles and hid underneath an awning.

The Triceratons, thinking they were now on foot but still running in the same direction, continued the chase.

As soon as they were out of sight, the three brothers dropped down from the awning.

"God I love being a ninja," said Raph as the three brothers high-fived each other before continuing to the rendezvous point.

-With Don-

Don then found the perfect spot where Professor Honeycutt could broadcast his signal: a sky scraper with multiple satellite dishes.

"There professor, that satellite dish array is just what the doctor ordered," he said as he landed the helicopter on the roof top.

"Righty-oh, re-sequencing positronic receptors for digital output streaming," said the robot as Don opened up a control box and plugged in the professor.

"You're live professor," said Don, "time to do some serious masking interface."

"Download interfacing," said the robot, "satellites transmitting now."

Meanwhile, Mozar and his troops continued to trace the signal.

"The signal grows stronger, they're close," he said. Just then the signal disappeared from the tracking device.

"What?!" Mozar exclaimed, "Damn them! Keep searching, we must not loose him or else the Prime Leader will have our heads!"

Meanwhile Don stealthily flew the helicopter to the rendezvous point.

-Battery Park-

The gang quickly reassembled Professor Honeycutt back into one piece, now that he was no longer transmitting a signal.

"It's good to have you back in one piece professor," said Naruto.

"Yes I agree," said the robot, "but now we must face reality. If you don't have an alternative plan, I really must surrender myself to the Triceratons."

"Give us time, we'll think of something professor," said Leo.

Suddenly they were surrounded by a barrage of tanks and helicopters.

Lights shone from all directions as a voice shouted, "Freeze! We have you surrounded! Drop your weapons and place your hands in the air or else we will shoot you!"

"Oh dear," said Professor Honeycutt, "I'm afraid it's out of the frying pan and into the fire."

Just then some troopers started to march in as they pointed their machine guns to the heroes.

"On the ground with your hands behind your head!" shouted a trooper, "Assume the position."

"I got your position right here assholes!" said Raphael as he took out his Sais.

"Fire!" shouted another trooper. And the troopers tarted to fire their machine guns, which turned out to be laser guns.

"Nice going Raph!" Leonardo complained as he swung himself around a street lamp post and kicked away several troopers.

At the same time, Michelangelo got himself on the shoulders of another trooper as he forced the trooper to shoot every source of light being emitted. Then he leapt off to let Donatello whack the trooper with his Bo Staff, inadvertently knocking away the weapon as well.

As Don picked it up, he commented, "When did Earth troops get such advanced weaponry?"

"I think I'd prefer to take my chances with the Triceratons," said Professor Honeycutt as the brothers formed a protective circle around him.

Just then, a tank fired an enormous stun gun blast at the heroes.

"GAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" the brothers screamed in pain as one by one they were effectively knocked out. Professor Honeycutt was the last one standing as he swayed from side to side.

"Oh...dear," he uttered as he too fell down, the electricity shorting him out.

-The Lair-

Splinter paced the lair back and forth with worry written on his face. Just then the doors to the pod opened and Casey and April stepped out.

"Master Splinter," April said to announce her presence.

"Miss O'Neil, Mr. Jones what news do you bring of my sons?" Splinter asked as he hurriedly went up to greet them.

"Actually we were kind of hoping they were with you," said April.

"Mmm, I fear for their safety," said Splinter as he headed towards his room, "this is not good; I must collect a few things and then I will go find them."

"Cool," said Casey as he and April also walked over to Splinter's room, "where do we start?"

"It will not be necessary for you two to accompany me," said Splinter.

"But you don't know what it's like up there," Casey protested as the rat shut the door to his room, "Those horn headed ass-wipes are everywhere."

Splinter then opened the door to his room and stood there.

"Casey's right," April agreed, "No one is allowed on the streets after dark. We were lucky to make it down here alive."

Splinter then stepped out, walked over to Don's work station and said, "That is precisely the point my friends, it is too dangerous."

"But you don't even know where to start looking," said April as she picked up Splinter's Shell Cell, "I can at least help by tracking their Shell Cell signals."

Splinter then stopped in his tracks to pause and weigh his options.

"Not to mention that Naruto has taught me a thing or two on how to defend myself. In fact, I've been practicing them almost everyday," said April.

"Wait," said Casey as he stood behind April, "You've been practicin' ninjutsu? Yeah right, Naruto woulda taught me too."

She then grabbed his arm, flipped him over her shoulder and slammed him on the floor.

"He said that if you ever wanted to learn, you had to ask Raphael," April replied with a smug smile.

"Point taken," Casey moaned as he got up.

Splinter then said, "I do not want to put the both of you in danger. But it is foolish to ignore fate and the strange gifts it offers."

"We'll if it's strange gifts you're after, they don't come any stranger than Casey Jones," said April.

"Could say the same thing about you," said Casey as he leaned over to whisper in her ear and as soon as he finished her entire face turned bright red.

"Y-y-you pervert," she stuttered.

"Hey it ain't my fault you didn't hide that bag too well," said Casey, "I gotta admit though, I wonder what his reaction is gonna be like when he sees you in that thing."

"Shut up!" she exclaimed.

"*Achem* If you two are finished, I would like I begin," said Splinter as he held up two black and blue spy suits.

-New York City Streets, Night-

Triceraton space craft flew everywhere, shining their lights in every direction.

In an alley, Splinter popped open a manhole cover and peered out. He then turned his attention to April and Casey (who were now in the spy suits. Also Casey has a duffel bag full of his sports equipment and April has let her hair down) and said, "Now listen, the way of invisibility takes a lifetime to master. Certain circumstances, however, require us to train as we go." He then removed the manhole cover and climbed out.

"Observe and learn," he said, "Lesson 1." He then leapt and hid with his back against the door in the shadow of a building just as a beam of search light shone where he once stood. He then signaled with a hand gesture for April and Casey to follow suit. April then leapt out of the manhole and hid with her back against the same door in the shadow of the same building.

"It don't look so hard," said Casey as he leapt out and tried to hide with his back against the door. However, as he did he accidentally knocked over a metal garbage can, spilling its contents.

"Leave it to Casey to put the 'crash' in crash course," April muttered.

At the same time, a Triceraton on a jetpack heard the noise and he, as well as several other Triceratons on jetpacks, went to investigate.

"What was that?" asked a Triceraton as they shone lights in the alley but only found an open manhole.

"Sir, I think it came from down there," said another Triceraton to his commanding officer. The aliens with jetpacks then fired at the hole to make it bigger so it could accommodate them.

"Fan out and search these underground passage ways," said the Triceraton Commander. And they all went into the sewers.

Unknown to them, Splinter, Casey and April were hidden in more obscure shadows and the rat was covering their mouths.

"Lesson 2," he said, "the way of silence."

-In an Unknown Base of Sorts: The Laboratory-

Doors to a laboratory opened as the troops carried in the five brothers and Professor Honeycutt (who were all strapped to mobile surgical tables). The brothers then groaned a bit as they opened their eyes and saw a figure operating in the dark.

"Where are we?" Leo muttered as they were all arranged in a circle in the middle of the laboratory. Just then bright surgical lights shone on the six captives.

"At the end of the line," said the figure in the shadows.

"It's me you want," said Professor Honeycutt as he activated himself, "leave my friends alone!"

"Actually Professor Honeycutt, it's you I don't want," said the figure as he stepped out of the shadows and revealed himself to be Bishop (though the heroes and the professor do not know his name).

"Who are you?" Don muttered.

"Well Donatello," said Bishop as he took out a needle, "I'm the man the government relies upon for certain...projects. The kind of projects they'd rather not get their hands stained with blood."

"Hey, how do you know Donny's name?" Naruto asked.

"And the professor's," added Raph.

"I know all your names Naruto and Raphael," said Bishop, "and much MUCH more."

"And yet we know nothing about you," said Leo, "Not even your name."

"How rude is that?" Mikey added.

"Very well Michelangelo and Leonardo,"'said Bishop as he picked up a reciprocating bone saw and activated it, "when you scream my name as your blood spills on the floor, when you writhe in pain and beg for mercy, when you watch as each and everyone of you dies an agonizingly slow and painful death, that is when you may call me Bishop."

"You're a goddamn insane and sick bastard," said Naruto, "Do you kiss your mother with that mouth?"

Bishop just ignored the orange robe wearing blond ninja.

"But I don't understand," said Professor Honeycutt, "everybody has always been after me in the past."

"Actually professor," said Bishop as he deactivated the bone saw and set it down and walked over to the doors, "you're a valuable commodity to a certain interested party."

Just then the doors opened and out stepped General Blanque, who was now sporting a scar over his right eye.

"Hello professor," he said as he entered the room with two Federation Troopers.

"General Blanque?!" Naruto exclaimed.

"Great, now we have the guy who was chasin' us back on D'Hoonnib," said Raph.

"What does he want?" Mikey asked before quickly correcting himself, "oh right."

"Escort the professor to the lab Agent Bishop has so graciously provided us with," General Blanque commanded to his two troopers.

"Yes sir," said a Federation Trooper as he wheeled the robot away.

"Alright General, you have your robot," said Bishop, "our deal is concluded."

"Yes; the Federation thanks you and your government for the assistance. The professor's Tele-Portal device will finally be ours," General Blanque replied, "and with it, the Federation will once and for all annihilate the accursed Triceratons. Our ultimate victory is at hand. Do what you will with those damn freaks and send me their pelts after you're done."

"NO!" Professor Honeycutt cried out as he was wheeled away while General Blanque and the two Federation Troopers walked out of the laboratory.

-The Hallway outside the Laboratory-

"Attention all Federation Troops," General Blanque commanded through a head set, "commence Operation Broken Horn."

-Outer Space-

Near the moon, a hyperspace portal opened and out came a fleet of Federation ships along with thousands of Federation space fighters. The Federation space fighters began to attack the Triceraton Homeworld as well as the various Triceraton Motherships.

-Triceraton Homeworld: Throne Room-

Zanramon and Mozar were looking at the ambush through a giant monitor.

"The Federation? Here? But that's impossible," he growled angrily.

Just then General Blanque appeared on the monitor.

"Caught you with your pants down didn't I Zanramon," he mocked while the Triceraton Prime Leader's eyes widened in surprise, "there's nowhere to run this time."

"We Triceratons never run, we fight as we live: with honor and nobility!" Zanramon retorted as pointed an accusatory finger to Mozar who worked furiously over a control console, "This is all your fault! Why did you not foresee this attack?!"

"I...but Prime Leader, you ordered me to direct all our resources to search for the Fugitoid," Mozar replied in slight protest.

"Search no further," said General Blanque as he presented Professor Honeycutt, "he's right here."

"What?! NO!" the two Triceratons cried.

"Surrender now or face certain death," said General Blamque.

"We never surrender Federation shit-head!" Zanramon exclaimed, "we will fight to the last Triceraton." He then pushed a button on the control console and cried, "ALL SHIPS ATTACK!"

-Outer Space-

Very quickly, every available Triceraton space fighter was launched in order to retaliate against the threat the Tederation posed. The Motherships then began to fire their lasers in assistance as an all-out brawl between the warring alien races begun.

-Federation Facility: New York City-

"This is General Blanque; we're done hiding gentlemen, deploy all Federation deep cover fighters," the Federation general commanded.

-The Hudson River-

Multiple Federation space fighters were soon launched from an underwater base to quickly assist in the battle in outer space.

-With Splinter, April and Casey-

The group of three stood on a dock as they looked up in the sky and saw and heard multiple explosions and laser blasts coming from the battle.

"Whoa," said Casey, "check it out."

"I just hope Naruto isn't up there," said April.

"Come," said Splinter, "we must not get distracted."

"Right," said April as she checked the Shell Cell tracking device, "well the good news is that it looks like the guys haven't left orbit. In fact, they're less than a mile away. The bad news is that the signal is across the river."

Splinter looked around and found a small rowboat. "It appears we must cross to the other side," he said.

-The Laboratory-

Surgical equipment that were in the hands of robot arms were being lowered from the ceiling to Bishop's working height as Bishop worked from behind a control console.

"You're makin' a big mistake Bishop, you can't trust that Blanque guy," said Raph as Bishop stepped out from the control console and approached the turtle, "he's no better than the Triceratons."

"Federation, Triceraton, it makes no difference to me," Bishop replied as he walked away from Raph to tinker with the surgical equipment, "I helped one race kill the other and they promised to give me what I need while leaving the Earth alone. But enough talk, time for your...dissection."

The surgical equipment began to scan the brothers' bodies.

Don then nervously said, "Uh, guys, you know how I always liked to take apart the toaster to see how it works? Well, I suddenly know how the toaster feels."

Bishop then walked over to the control console and smiled.

"Fascinating," he said, "your genetic structures are virtually identical to the only other specimen that I was able to find."

"Other specimen? Who in the hell did you kidnap?" Naruto asked.

"What'chu talkin' about Willis?" Mikey asked (imitating and referencing Gary Coleman) as Bishop walked over to a drawer structure that was meant for cadavers. He then pulled open a drawer in the middle section to reveal Leatherhead, who had multiple wires and bandages attached to his body.

"Leatherhead?" Mikey asked.

Leatherhead groaned as he tried to get up and respond to his first friend but was too weak to even attempt it.

-With Splinter, April and Casey-

Explosions and laser blasts still rattled the sky as the group of three silently rowed across the Hudson River, following the signal that the Shell Cell Tracker was showing.

"The Shell Cell signals haven't moved in a while," said April, "which means the guys are either being held captive or are unconscious."

"Yeah," said Casey, "Or dead." The other two looked at him sternly. "What, I'm just listin' the possibilities," he said, "If you really want my opinion, I think they're tough enough to survive whatever's thrown at them."

-The Laboratory-

"Years of research, and I've never seen a genetic structure like yours or that of your crocodilian friend," said Bishop as he removed a laser scalpel from a robot arm and walked over to Mikey, "finding the exact source of your mutation is going to accelerate my ability to create super soldiers by at least twenty years."

He then cut away a corner piece of Mikey's table.

"Pity you will die in the next two minutes," he said with a sadistic smile.

-With Splinter, April and Casey-

April checked the Tracking device and noticed something unusual. "That's strange, according to the signal we should be right on top of them, but I don't see anything," she said as she looked around.

Casey then spotted something and pointed to the water. "Hey, what's that over there?" he asked. April and Splinter looked in the direction he was pointing in.

"Where?" April asked, "All I see is moon light."

"Two things," said Casey, "One: last time I checked, light is reflected from the water not shining up from the bottom and two: the moon light's behind us."

Sure enough, upon closer inspection, the light was coming up from the bottom of the river.

"An underwater entrance perhaps?" Splinter asked. All three then took a deep breath and leapt out of the row boat as they dived towards the bottom of the river. Sure enough, an entire underwater base was found. The three then swam as fast as they could towards the underwater boat entrance.

-The Underwater Base: The Boat Docks-

The group of three carefully broke the water's surface as they looked around and saw they were in the docks of the underwater base (and apparently this base belongs to the Federation) along with three Federation troopers who were heavily armed.

"Attention Gamma Squadron , report to docking bay twelve."

"So how do we get past all those guards?" April asked Splinter in a whisper. Only he wasn't there when she asked him.

Suddenly a splash was heard as Splinter's cane floated in the water.

"What was that?" asked a trooper. Just then there was a rushing noise behind them. One guard turned around and immediately was on the receiving end of a kick executed by Splinter. The rat then quickly knocked out the other two troopers with a punch and a kick. He then retrieved his cane as April and Casey climbed out of the water.

"Aw, you hogged all the goons," said Casey.

"Plenty more where those cane from," said April as she handed Casey a Federation laser gun while she retrieved one for her own self.

"Master Splinter?" she asked as she offered him a gun.

"No thank you," said Splinter, "it would only slow me down."

They all then ran into the hallway connecting the docks to the next room. As they neared a corner, April checked the tracking device and saw that the signal was coming from a room around the corner. She silently showed this to Splinter, who nodded as he peered around the corner and saw a guard in front of the door.

"Miss O'Neil, shoot the lights," Splinter whispered. April nodded as she summersaulted in front of the guard and shot the lights above him.

"What the hell?"'the guard exclaimed. Then there was a grunting sound followed by a moan and then a thud as the doors opened to reveal April as the winner.

"She's good," said Casey as they stepped inside the room. They then had a proper look and saw that the room was a utility closet.

"They are not here," said Splinter.

"April, I think that scanner of yours is busted," said Casey.

April said nothing as she walked up to a metal cabinet and opened the doors. Inside the contents consisted of a pair of Katanas, a pair of Sais, a pair of Nun-Chucks, a Bo Staff and five Shell Cells.

"I'd say it's working perfectly," said April. Splinter then sniffed the air.

"Wait," he said, "they are near. We must continue to search the facility."

"No point in leavin' empty handed," said Casey as he gathered the brothers' belongings in his duffel bag. He then grabbed what appeared to be two small fire extinguishers.

"What's this thing?" he wondered as Splinter snatched it out if his hands.

"Most likely something you should not handle," said the rat as he pocketed the canisters.

They then exited the utility closet and continued down the hallway they previously were in. Soon they came upon a seemingly safe hallway.

Splinter then sniffed the air and said, "This hallway is laden with danger; we must proceed with caution." He then took out a canister and sprayed it, revealing the hallway to be filled with laser alarms from end to end. "We must execute our movements with absolute precision," he said.

Splinter then leapt almost immediately as he performed many death defying flips and twists, each one more harrowing then the next. Then at last he made it to the other side without touching a single laser.

April then stepped back a bit and took a running start as she showed amazing flexibility and agility by also never touching a single laser when she reached the end of the hallway.

"Yeah, there's no way I can do that," said Casey, "I'm too bulky." He then decided to take a more cautious approach as he quickly but carefully stepped over and ducked under the lasers.

"You're almost there Casey," said April as he was halfway through the hallway. Near the end, Casey decided to take one giant leap through the last set of lasers. And while he did make it, he almost lost his balance, were it not for the timely intervention by April and Splinter.

"Phew," said Casey as he wiped his brow, "thanks."

Just then Don's Bo Staff, which was too big for the duffel bag so instead it was on a handle loop, dropped from its supposedly secure place and fell onto a single laser.

"Ah damn," he muttered as he picked up the weapon while alarms started to blare. They then heard the sounds of multiple footsteps from their left and right. Casey then looked at the ground and saw some ventilation grates.

"In here," he said as he pulled up a grate while they all got in. The Federation troopers got in just as he closed the grate. The troopers looked amongst each other in confusion as one of them shut down the alarms.

"The intruders can't have gone far," said the commanding officer, "spread out and search for them, go!"

-The Ventilation Shaft-

Casey and April were now following Splinter as he followed his nose in the search for the five brothers.

"Their scent, it grows stronger up ahead," he said and the three hurried their pace.

-Bishop's Laboratory-

Bishop was contemplating on who to dissect first. He looked at each of the brothers with malice in his eyes. Finally he had his sights set on Mikey, who then gulped nervously as Bishop activated the bone saw and closed in.

"For the sacrifice you're about to make, your country thanks you Michelangelo. Sorry I can't administer a sedative," he said with a sardonic tone, "but it might corrupt my findings."

"Then it looks like you're going to be sorely disappointed then," said Naruto. Bishop stopped his advance on Mikey and turned his attention to Naruto.

"How so?" he asked.

"Because..." Naruto started to say as all four of his brothers went *Poof* and in their place were more Narutos. Then all the Narutos went *Poof* revealing they were nothing but Shadow Clones. Before Bishop could register what had happened, he received a hard kick to the face and was sent flying into the control console.

"What in the fuck is going on?!" he exclaimed as he got up. His answer came in the form of all five brothers leaping down from the ceiling, albeit without their weapons.

"Because I never leave anything to chance," said Naruto, "the only thing I wish I did was make substitutions of our gear and the professor without making it seem obvious."

"Don't worry Naruto," said Leo, "we still have time to get to Professor Honeycutt."

"I'm amazed he got our personalities spot on," said Don.

"He coulda fooled me," said Mikey.

"Anyone can fool you Mikey," said Raph, "now let's just get this guy!"

"HYYYYYYAAAAAAHHHH!" the brothers shouted as they attacked from all directions and rapidly throw punches and kicks. Amazingly though, while Bishop was on the defensive, he managed to hold his own against the five brothers. Then, even more amazingly, he managed to knock them all away.

"That's it," he said as he took out a Smith and Wesson Model 29 .44 Magnum, "I didn't want to have to use this, but now I'll just have to remember to dig the bullet out as I dissect your bodies piece by piece."

However, unknown to him, a ventilation grate opened up and Splinter stepped out.

"Say good bye," said Bishop as he aimed.

"Keep away from my sons!" Splinter shouted as he angrily punched Bishop so hard it sent him flying into a wall, making a dent, while also knocking away his weapon underneath some tall cabinets.

"Oh great, more freaks," Bishop muttered as he somewhat staggered to get up but failed as the blow he took seemed to knock him out. Meanwhile Mikey went over to Leatherhead.

"Oh man, Leatherhead," he said as he untied the crocodile, "Can you hear me buddy?"

"My friend," Leatherhead groaned.

"I didn't think we'd ever see you again," said Mikey as he helped Leatherhead up, "The last time I saw you, our old lair caved in on you."

Leatherhead then moved himself to the edge of the me teal table he was laying on and helped himself down, now that seeing his friends had given him his strength.

"Well, I am very thick skinned," he said, "quite literally." He then pulled out all the wires that restrained him and joined the others.

Just then Casey and April got out from the ventilation shaft. Casey then unzipped his duffel bag and threw it to the five brothers.

"Hey Raph, Christmas came early this year," he said. Everyone then reached in and pulled out their gear (except for Naruto, who never had his gear taken) and Shell Cells.

"Thank you Santa," said Raph.

Suddenly the doors opened and Federation troops started to march in. April then reached into Naruto's back pocket, pulled out a Kunai knife, pierced the second canister and threw it at the door effectively making it like a smoke bomb as the contents billowed everywhere. Casey then took out a baseball bat and he, April and the five brothers all leapt into the fray and started to beat up and knock around various Federation troopers. The troopers then started to fire blindly, hoping they would hit something, but this was not the case as April and Naruto knocked away all their weapons before kicking them in the crotch.

Even Leatherhead joined the fun as he threw some Federation troopers out the door. The Federation troopers then realized the hopeless situation they got themselves into; so the remaining ones retreated.

At that moment, Bishop got up.

"Goddamn cowards," he said as he saw the nine of them standing together. The two opposing sides then had a stare-down, each daring the other to make the first move.

Bishop then adjusted his sunglasses, but the moment he did, he seemed to move at the speed of light as he got into the middle of the group and roundhouse kicked them all away, save for Mikey who ducked down and attacked. But this proved to be a hasty mistake as he was grabbed by the secret agent and forced onto a surgical table. Bishop then tied Mikey up while he grabbed the bone saw, activated it and held it near Mikey's neck. The rest of the group, who had quickly gotten up, collectively had a look of shock in their faces at the situation before them. Raph and Leo tried to move, but Splinter stretched out his arms and blocked their way.

"Anyone moves, and Michelangelo dies," Bishop threatened.

"Ahhhhhhh,"Michelangelo whispered in fear as the bone saw came closer and closer.

Naruto just smirked and shouted, "Attack Pattern Delta go now!"

Just then, Bishop felt his saw being knocked out of his hand as he received multiple blows to the torso and face before he was picked up and slammed into both a stone support beam and the wall. Then he was launched into the air and slammed down to the ground again before being thrown aside. Naruto's shadow clones (there were four) dropped their Earth Style: Camouflage Jutsu and untied Mikey before dispelling.

"Could you have cut it any closer?" Mikey asked in a nervous voice of gratitude.

"You're welcome," said Naruto as Bishop got up and inspected his lower lip; he wiped a finger on it and found that he was bleeding.

"My lip is bleeding," he said, "No one's ever been able to do that."

"Didn't I tell you I never leave anything to chance? Who do you think kicked you the first time?" Naruto replied. Now that Mikey was free, the brothers commenced their attack.

Leonardo swung in first with his Katanas, slashing left and right hoping that his weapons would give him an edge over hand to hand combat. However, Bishop nimbly dodged all the strikes as he proceeded to prepare a counter attack. That opportunity presented itself when Raphael came charging in with his Sais. Bishop grabbed one of his arms and, in conjunction with a strike Leo was about to do, trapped both of Leo's Katanas in Raph's lone Sai. He then pinned them both down with his foot.

Casey came to the rescue as he swung his aluminum bat into Bishop's ribs. The vigilante and the secret agent then exchanged blows, Casey being on the offensive as he swung his bat and threw uppercuts to the agent's face. As they got near some shelves, Casey's bat started to do collateral damage as the jars that lined the shelves were instantly disintegrated into smithereens. Bishop then grabbed a taser off one of the shelves and zapped Casey with it. The vigilante went down as the secret agent then grabbed a fire extinguisher and prepared to bash his head in.

"Casey," April cried as she tried to defend the downed man, but was about to be hit in the face were it not for the timely intervention on Naruto's part.

"You never hit a lady," he growled as he threw Bishop aside, "Or do I need to slap the shit out of you, which is something your mother never did."

Bishop said nothing as he sprayed them both with the fire extinguisher. Then he was attacked by Donatello and Mikey. Bishop still held the bat as the two turtles maneuvered him to the center of the room where all four turtles surrounded him.

Raph and Mikey attacked first, but Bishop stealthily moved himself so the bat could be used to make Mikey wrap his Nun-Chuck around Raph's hand while Raph's Sai was stick in the chain that held the Nun-Chuck. He then kicked them away just as Leo and Don attacked.

Leo tried to get in some short jabs as he struck left and right while Don would use the distance his Bo Staff gave to jab in the agency's face. However, Bishop grabbed Leo's hand and Don's Bo Staff as he kicked away one of Leo's Katanas and forced Don's Bo Staff to pin down both his arm and Leo's arm and Katana.

"You have no idea what you're up against," said Bishop. He then received an elbow jab from behind and as he bent over his head was grabbed and forcibly slammed down onto Naruto's knee, shattering his sun glasses.

"Then I guess I'm the one that's going to prove you wrong," said Naruto (who is now in his Nine-Tailed Fox: Initial Stage) as he swiped his claws and tore up the secret agent's suit. Then he kicked him into Splinter who kicked him back into the middle of the room.

"I suggest you surrender, you are outnumbered," he said.

"Perhaps, but I am not out classed," said Bishop. Just then he was put into a strong bear hug by Leatherhead. Bishop then proved his point by breaking free of Leatherhead's grip and heading out the door, but not before pausing and said, "Until we meet again, and we will, count on it." He then ran out the door at lightning fast speed.

"Whoa, Bishop's got a little speed in him," said Mikey.

"Well we can't go after him now, we've got to find Professor Honeycutt," said Leo as he picked up his Katana and sheathed both of them.

-Outer Space-

As the battle raged on, several Federation space fighters started to attack the Triceraton Homeworld. Explosions racked the domed world.

-Triceraton Homeworld: Command Center-

Mozar and many other Triceratons worked furiously at their respective control consoles.

"Tri-gunners to battle stations, prime shields to maximum power!" Mozar commanded.

"Mozar, report," said Zanramon as he took his place.

"Yes Prime Leader," said Mozar, "the shields are back up to 90% and our defenses are-."

"Silence!" Zanramon interrupted, "the fate of our entire dance depends on your effort to find the Fugitoid and you have yet to bring me results."

"Prime Leader there is a war raging around us," Zanramon reasoned.

"Don't you dare defy me, bring me results Mozar or by the Horn of Haggalear I will see you disgraced, dishonored and dead at my feet before a Triceraton firing squad."

And he walked away, not noticing Mozar suppressing rage at his leader.

-New York City, Night, Federation Facility-

Inside the facility, General Blanque stood in the laboratory Bishop gave him (which was filled with multiple control consoles that each had their own monitor as well as a big monitor situated on a wall) and watched as Professor Honeycutt, who was strapped to a surgical table, was being connected to several cables by his three robot assistants.

"How close are we?" he asked.

"All the connections are active general," said a robot assistant, "we shall have full access momentarily."

"You should have known better than to hide from me," Gerneal Blanque addressed the professor, "the Tele-portal plans are mine professor. We are going to break you."

"No, no, please!" the robot cried out.

"Sir, I'm lowering our firewall to give the mainframe full access," said a second robot assistant, "We've almost got it aaaaaaannnnnnnnd yes! We've got it, we're through. Defense protocols deactivated."

"Ah, perfect," said General Blanque.

"We have full access to his database now sir," said the second robot assistant as they all looked at the giant monitor.

"With the designs for the Tele-portal now in our hands," said General Blanque, "Not only will we use it to completely kill the Triceratons, but nothing will stop us from conquering half the known galaxies! Let the annihilation begin! Begin preparations to teleport explosives into the very heart of the Triceraton Homeworld."

"Yes sir," said the first robot assistant. Then something unexpected (for the Federation anyway) happened. Every time the assistant tried to locate the plans for the Tele-portal device, all that appeared on the screen at the control console was a red circle marked with a red 'X'. The robot furiously tried to locate the plans but the same thing happened again and again.

"Um sir, there seems to be a bit of a problem," said the first robot assistant.

"What is it?" General Blanque asked.

"The Tele-portal plans, they're-there're not here."

"Not here, then where in the hell are they?!" General Blanque exclaimed.

"I erased them," said Professor Honeycutt.

"You what?"

"Before I returned to Earth," Professor Honeycutt explained, "I knew neither you nor the Triceratons would ever believe me, so I needed to give either one access to my memory. Now you have seen for yourself that they're really gone. Now if you'll excuse me." And his body started to glow an electric blue color, which traveled up the wires and into every monitor. The monitors then showed a green screen with multiple numerical sequences.

"Sir, it's taking over our system," said the third robot assistant.

"Shut it down," General Blanque commanded.

"It's too late," said the third robot assistant, "he's locked us out."

Just then the restraints that held the professor became undone as he sat up and stated, "You've opened your entire mainframe to me, I'm inside the system. In fact-."

His voice then came from every monitor, as he finished with, "I am the system."

"As you should have remembered General," the professor pointed out, "I designed most of the Federation mainframe for you."

"Damn you!" General Blanque exclaimed as he attempted to pull out the cables connecting the professor, "Stop him!"

However, as soon as he touched the cables, he received an electric shock and was thrown back.

"I'm sorry general, but I cannot allow you to disconnect me," said the professor, "not just yet."

-With the group of nine heroes-

The group was now on the surface level of the base as they navigated the hallways. (The particular one they're in is filled with monitors)

"I know the professor is somewhere in this rat maze," said Don as he added, "oh, uh sorry Master Splinter."

"Maybe they moved him," Mikey suggested.

Just then the monitors started to show green screens with numerical sequences.

"Or maybe not," said Mikey.

"What the hell is going on here?" Naruto asked. His answer came in the form of the professor's robot head appearing in front of the sequences.

"To all the people of the planet Earth," he started to say, "and the warring nations above, I need you to listen to what I have to say. I am Professor Honeycutt and not so very long ago I tried to create an instantaneous transportation system called the Tele-portal, a device intended to bring people together and promote peace. But instead it has become the prize in an insane and never ending war. Now I beg for the Federation and Triceraton forces to hear me: the plans for the Tele-portal are gone. It is because of me that this godforsaken war has come to this planet and so it is left to me to put things right. I have completely eradicated the technical specifications of the Tele-portal device from my memory circuits. However, I know that very soon I will have to take drastic measures, and when I do I know that this conflict will be over."

The message then started to repeat itself.

"That doesn't sound good," said Naruto, "it sounds like he really will commit suicide to end this once for all."

"But how do we stop him, this place is so big it'll take forever to find him," said Raph.

Don then looked around and saw a computer console (my how convenient) and began to type furiously while saying, "Maybe not, if I can access the video feed, we can trace it to see where it's coming from."

A map then popped up and gave the professor's location.

"Got it," said Don.

-Triceraton Homeworld: Command Center-

"Mozar, report," Zanramon demanded to know. Mozar then brought up a screen that showed the Tele-portal designs were not in the professor's memory.

"He was telling the truth sir, the Tele-portal design is not within his memory banks," said Mozar.

"BAH, it has to be some kind of Federation trick," said Zanramon. Just then there was another wave of Federation space fighters preparing to attack the Homeworld.

Zanramon growled as he commanded, "Sever all links with the Fugitoid's transmission and go to full alert."

"Yes Prime Leader," said Mozar as he turned his attention to some Triceratons at a control console, "Purge the Fugitoid from the system, reboot now!"

They did and the screens momentarily were turned off. Mozar then opened a line of communication with the space fighters and motherships.

"All ships, defensive maneuvers!" he commanded.

-New York City, Federation Base: General Blanque's Laboratory-

Professor Honeycutt started to become weaker and weaker as evident by his tone of voice as it started to slow down when he said, "My work here...is almost done. And...so that you won't go away...empty handed, I do have...one...last...gift...to ensure you...learn the ways of...harmony. May peace...prevail."

The monitors in the laboratory quickly became red before exploding into a thousand pieces, (except for one, which again I say how convenient) which managed to take out two of the three robot assistants.

"Sir, he's uploaded a virus," said the remaining robot assistant, "it's over loading all of our systems."

"Damn him, we can't let it spread to the fleet; initiate base isolation sequence!" General Blanque commanded.

-With the group of nine heroes-

As the group got closer and closer to the professor's location, they came upon another hallway with multiple monitors which turned red and exploded.

"Oh shit," said Raph.

"Well I've seen enough James Bond movies to know when the enemy base starts to blow up, it's time to go," said Mikey.

"Not without Professor Honeycutt, we never leave anyone behind," said Naruto, "now let's go!"

-General Blanque's Laboratory-

The remaining robot assistant worked furiously at the only remaining computer console.

"Sir, I think-." Before it could say anything more, the lab went dark.

"What, report!" General Boanque demanded to know.

"Sir, I've shut down the power to stop the virus. The fleet reports no effects, it appears to have worked," said the robot assistant.

"Then...it was all...for nothing," said the professor as he heard what the assistant had said.

Just then the doors were blown away by a Rasengan as Naruto and the others entered the Laboratory.

"Professor?" Don called out.

"Donatello," Professor Honeycutt called back, "help me."

"Oh no you don't," said General Blanque as he opened a second set of doors and called out, "Federation Troops, ATTACK!" And some Federation soldiers came running in and started firing their laser guns.

"Guys, cover me," said Don as he leapt to unplug the professor while his brothers, Splinter, Casey, April and Leatherhead dealt with the Federation troopers.

"Hang on professor, I'll get you out of here," said Don.

"No, ...forget about me," said Professor Honeycutt, "focus on turning ...the power back on ...so I can ...finish uploading... my virus."

"Professor," Don protested as he ducked down to avoid laser blasts, "it's too risky, let's just get you out of here."

"No Donatello...I...know the risks...but it's...the only way to...stop this godforsaken war...once and...for all," replied the professor, "please...please...help me."

Don just gritted his teeth in frustration at the hopeless situation that was unfolding while he fought an internal struggle.

"All right professor," he said in a relenting tone and he kicked away two soldiers while punching a third as he went to the lone working control console to begin to turn on the power.

"I have a feeling I'm going to regret this," he muttered as he turned the power back on.

"Stop him, he's going to let the virus affect the fleet!" General Blanque commanded to two soldiers. As they prepared to attack, Splinter leapt in and struck them across their heads with his cane while Leatherhead picked them up and threw them across the room.

"Just a few more seconds," Don muttered as he entered the necessary commands before pushing one last button and saying, "Go professor!"

The power went back on as Professor Honeycutt said, "Recommencing viral upload." This time every last control console exploded, while also taking out the last robot assistant.

All nine heroes ducked for cover while General Blanque screamed, "DAMN YOUUUUUUUUU!"

-Outer Space-

The virus was then beamed into outer space where ship in the Federation fleet as well as the Federation space fighters went out of control and started to either drift without power or smash into each other, effectively killing one other.

-Triceraton Homeworld: Command Center-

Zanramon and Mozar were watching this unusual event as it happened right before their very eyes.

"What the hell is happening?" Zanramon asked.

"Scout reader report!" Mozar demanded to know.

"Sir, they're...they're all completely powerless," said the scout over the PA system, "the entire Federation fleet is defenseless, awaiting orders sir."

Zanramon chuckled with glee. Mozar, on the other hand, had other plans.

"Hold your fire," he said.

"WHAT?" Zanramon exclaimed, "Commander Mozar, order your troops to attack immediately! The entire enemy fleet is helpless before us, victory is at last within our grasp!"

Mozar folded his arms over his chest in defiance as he held his ground as he said, "There is no honor in attacking a defenseless enemy prime leader."

"THIS IS NOT ABOUT YOUR DAMN ETHICS," Zanramon screamed as he brought Mozar closer to his face, "THIS IS ABOUT THE COMPLETE GENOCIDE OF OUR LIFE LONG ADVERSARIES!" He then shouted to his soldiers, "Open fire!"

"At once Prime Leader," said a pilot who appeared on the giant monitor. Suddenly the monitor showed a red screen.

"What the hell?!" Zanramon exclaimed.

-Outer Space-

It seemed that Professor Honeycutt's virus was not only affecting the Federation fleet of ships and space fighters, but the Triceratons as well. Everywhere you looked, Triceraton space fighters were crashing into each other.

-Triceraton Homeworld: Command Center-

"Goddamn it, it's spreading to our ships!" Zanramon exclaimed, "cut all contact with that squadron."

"But sir," Mozar protested, "we can't leave them stranded."

"You only have one chance, do as I say and cut then off!" Zanramon commanded. Mozar looked over at his control console and made a move to push a big red triangle shaped button. He then hesitated for a bit before deciding to push it.

"We are safe prime leader," he said, "whatever infected the Federation and our scouts has not affected the rest of the fleet of the homeworld."

"Excellent," Zanramon replied, "No ready the long range cannons, we'll blow the Federation right out of the sky!"

"We won't be carrying out that order Zanramon," said a voice. Zanramon jumped and looked behind over his shoulder and saw Traximus with his group of rebels with multiple Truceraton soldiers standing beside them.

"Or any other dishonorable command you might give," said Traximus.

"Traximus, how did you get in here?" Zanramon asked.

"We walked, now give up, you are outnumbered," said Traximus.

"That's what you think. Open fire guards," Zanramon commanded.

Except this time, no one obeyed.

"Well, what are you waiting for? Kill them!" Zanramon commanded.

The soldiers just looked at each other, not sure of what to do, until their commanding officer Mozar said, "Men, stand down and lower your weapons, it's over."

"What is this? What the hell are you doing Mozar?" Zanramon demanded to know. He then looked at everyone and said, "This is a damn revolution!"

Traximus picked him up by his collar and said, "Revolution is what happens when the world needs to change."

-Federation Facility: General Blanque's Laboratory-

Everyone surrounded General Blanque, whose men were all knocked unconscious and lying everywhere, as he tried to back away but found that he couldn't.

"Keep away from me," he said in a fearful tone, "my troops will be here any second and you will all be killed."

"Not today Blanque," said Raph as he flipped the general over his shoulder and pinned him to the ground.

Don then walked over to the professor and said, "Your virus has run its course professor you did it!" But something was wrong and Don could feel it in the air. "Professor? Professor?"

The reply he got was not from the scientist, but from his assistant SAL, "Greetings. I am Sal. AB21 Servator Class Robot. How may I be of service? How may I be of service? How may I be...of...service?" The robot's body then shut down, its green eyes and mouth dimmed.

"Oh no," Naruto muttered in disbelief.

"I...I warned him, his body was never meant to channel that kind of power," said Don as everyone gathered around the robot, "it killed him."

"He knew Donny," said Leo as he contorted his brother, "but he did it anyway."

"He was a true hero," said Naruto.

-Triceraton Homeworld: the Throne Room-

About an hour later all nine heroes were brought up to the throne room by Traximus. As they walked in, they saw two lines of Triceraton soldiers standing to their left and right sides and all were saluting them. They then stopped at the foot of the stairs leading up to the chair.

Traximus stepped forward and faced Mozar, who saluted him. Traximus saluted him back, faced the heroes and said, "Let this be a day to remember, from this day forward: none shall sit upon the throne."

Mozar then handed Traximus a laser gun. Traximus then opened fire on the lone chair and completely obliterated it into dust.

"The senate shall be reinstated and the republic shall be born!" Traximus exclaimed, "For too long this damn war has cost us our honor and countless lives have been lost. Let a new age begin!"

"Traximus," said Mozar, "our forces have completed the rescue efforts, the Fedeation Troops are being brought onto the homeworld as we speak."

"We will treat them as allies and guests until we safely deliver them to the Federation," said Traximus, "as our first gesture of peace."

"It will be done," Mozar replied.

"There are but two prisoners I must keep under lock and key," said Traximus, "Perhaps they will also find a way to make peace."

-Triceraton Prison-

In the apparent Maximum Security Center, there were only two prisoners: Former Prime Leader Zanramon and General Blanque. And both, whether this was bad or good, were in cells that were right next to each other, separated only by a very tough shielded glass wall (so essentially they are neighbors forever).

"Goddamn Triceraton prison, this cesspool has more tricera-shit than I can stand to smell," General Blanque angrily remarked.

"The only shit I smell is your cowardice to say that behind the safety of this glass wall General Ass-Wipe," Zanramon retorted.

"You want to say that again you ugly son of a bitch!"

"Which part? Your shit or your cowardice?"

"That's it, I'm going to break this wall and tear you a new one!"

"Not if I do that first!"

And both occupants started to punch as hard as they could on the glass, hoping it would give in and break into pieces.

-Triceraton Homeworld: A Star Trek-esque room for launching glass coffins into space-

In this suspiciously familiar room (seriously, I mean I like the reference but why do the Triceratons even have this room? Maybe this is how they bury their own dead since they don't have a big planet to bury the bodies; but who cares let's get on with it) the nine heroes, Traximus aand Mozar all lined up on one side while Professor Honeycutt's body, which was lying in a glass coffin, was laid onto a conveyer belt.

"I think we outta say something, and I think Don has to be the one to say it," Naruto suggested.

Don then nodded as he stepped forward with tears in his eyes. He sniffled a bit as he wiped the tears from his eyes and said, "I don't know what to say. Professor, I- I guess mainly I just wanna say 'Thanks'. You were a good friend. Not only will you live on in our hearts, but your noble sacrifice will endure forever: in the lasting gift of peace."

Mozar then pushed a button and slowly Professor Honeycutt's coffin was launched into the deep recesses of space, eternally floating until the end of time.

-A Secret Base: A Laboratory of Sorts-

Someone with a device over his right eye was working at a computer console in the laboratory that glowed orange when a door opened behind him. The man turned around and saw Bishop enter the room.

"Ah Bishop," said the man, "It's a shame that your mission ended in failure; ah, what are you going to do, shit happens am I right?"

"Not necessarily," Bishop replied with a smirk, "I now know more than I previously had discovered. The next time those five and I meet, I will succeed (he says this next part in a Cajun accent) I guarantee."

Man Bishop is a creepy and sadistic bastard, and anyone whose watched these episodes can and will agree with me. Though I do like that in season six's Fast Forward that he eventually steps out of the dark and creepy anti-hero role and becomes the president of the entire Earth. Oddly enough I had more fun writing part two simply because of Bishop, because I couldn't wait to alter his dialogue to make him more intimidating. And yes both parts happen within the span of one day (or more technically, one sunset to night). If I were them, I'd take it easy after all this non-stop action. But alas, their adventures continue in the next chapter.

So please, leave a review.
