A/N: Thanks for the reviews everyone! It seriously does mean a lot to me *huge hugs* :3

Angel groaned a little as Rahzar threw her to the ground in front of the Shredder's throne. The mutant then took a few steps back and bowed to his master just as several foot soldiers entered the room.

"You have brought me a handful of mutants and a girl..." Shredder stated slowly, staring down at him. "However, I see no mutant turtle. Where is he, Bradford?"

"Well...About that," Rahzar lowered his gaze as the Shredder stood from his throne. "We tried to get him, Master, I swear! Those other turtles and O'Neil retreated before we could get near them."

"You have disappointed me many times, Bradford," the Shredder warned, the blades from his hand armour unsheathing as he stood in front of Rahzar. "What use is this inferior girl?"

Rahzar flinched away and looked at the wall to his side, "Bait?" he whispered, closing his eyes and waiting for the strike. The sound of the blades retracting caused Rahzar to look up as the Shredder turned around and headed back up to his throne.

"Very well," he answered slowly. "Keep the mutants in the labs but place her in the holding area. We'll make it easy for them to come in..." Shredder's eyes glinted in pride with this plan, "Not so easy, however, to come out."

"Wha-" Angel was yanked up by her arm and was pulled away, Rahzar threw her into two foot ninja who grabbed her by the arms and began to drag her toward the exit. Her shoes squeaked against the polished floor as she tried to stop them from pulling her away, "What are you going to do to them?" she demanded angrily. "I swear, if you try to hurt my friends again, I will tear you to pieces!"

"Get her out of my sight, Bradford!" Shredder ordered, his voice rising in anger. "As for your pets, we'll run some tests and see what we can do with them, they may be of some future use."

"You can't do this!" Angel cried out hysterically as she was pulled out of the room, the doors slamming behind her. Shredder leaned back in his throne and closed his eyes, however, the sounds of Angel's screaming took away any kind of silence.

"Xever," he said quietly, causing the mutant to look up at him. "Check up on our guest, I have a feeling that we're going to have company very soon."

"What are we going to do now?" Donnie asked, completely lost for ideas after they had yet-again escaped the Shredder. Mikey pointed at April who was holding a small radio-like device and was speaking into it. Back-up, Donnie thought to himself, an idea suddenly popping into his head.

"What are you doing?" Mikey asked as Donnie reached behind him and pulled out his own T-phone from his belt.

"Well, it seems that the time and date here is exactly the same as it is back at home," Donnie explained, messing around with the wires inside of the device. "I think I could possibly call everybody back at the lair."

"A phone call to the past..." Mikey raised his eyebrows up and shook his head sympathetically. "That won't work, Donnie."

The T-phone began to buzz and sure enough, a small ringing sound filled the area, causing everybody to stare at Donnie. The sound was fuzzy with static, due to the signal but the phone kept on ringing until they heard the faint sound of somebody picking up.

"H-Hello?" the voice was a little warped but Donnie felt like crying as it was his Leonardo who had answered. "Donnie...nie...Is that you?" the voice sounded as if he were begging. Donnie's hands shook as he held the phone.

"I'm here...Leo, please hear me," he whispered, earning a loud gasp from the other end and the sound of Leonardo calling the rest of their family. Before Donatello could hear any of their voices, the connection cut off and his phone lost all its working functions.

"DONNIE?!" Leo yelled, shaking his own T-phone in his bedroom. Splinter, Raphael and Michelangelo came running in and stood as Leo stood staring at his phone in tears.

"Leonardo..." Splinter began, attempting to comfort his eldest.

"Dude, you okay? Casey and April heard you shouting outside and called us out."

"I...I..." Leo's voice cracked as he shut his eyes and threw his phone across his bed. He looked up at all of them desperately. "I think I just spoke to Donatello."

"Donnie?" Mikey repeated sadly, shuffling towards Raph, who placed his arm around his younger brother comfortingly.

"But there were background sounds too," Leo explained, his hands still shaking. "It sounded like..." he laughed nervously. "Like Mikey was there with him."
