Hi guys yeah sorry it's been a while, but do me and AVP5 have a chapter for you. It's Wormquake! but before we get started, there's a couple things you should know.
1) Baxter Stockman is already a fly in this. When we other the other chapters, we kind of forgot about that he didn't mutate in this episode and since we already wrote him like that in the other chapters, we decided to keep it for the story.
2) This Wormquake is 3 parts since their is a lot more happening with the turtles, Karai, Splinter and the Oc's.
3) There's a reference to two other stories of mine whoever can name the stories first will get an online Christmas cookie :D
well that's about it. Me and AVP5 don't own the turtles or any of the other characters, they belong to their rightful owners, I only own Caitlin and AVP5 owns Chris. Enjoy Wormquake!
Sixteen: Wormquake!(part 1)
The next night was a quiet one, as Karai, Rahzar, Fishface and some Foot Bots, were waiting to ambush the turtles.
''Karai, Shredder didn't authorize your'e little operation I think we should-'' ''Silence! I don't care if he didn't authorize this mission. If we score an ambush on the turtles it'll make us both look good. And hopefully I can talk to Caitlin. Now quiet here they come.''
*…*
Not to far away, the turtles were climbing over rooftops and fire escapes. Caitlin had stayed behind at the lair so she could spend some quality time with Chris.
But Leo didn't mind he couldn't have been happier because the date was such a success. Until he had a feeling something wasn't right. ''Hold up ninjas, I have a feeling were not alone here.''
Mikey nodded, ''your'e right Leo we have a potential spy. He looked over at a squirrel that stared back at him, before running away.
Donnie shook his head, ''Shh I thought I heard-''
''Foot attack!'' suddenly, the Foot Bots, Karai, Rahzar and Fishface attacked. Rahzar knocked Mikey to the ground and tackled him. Raph started taking out Footbots with his sais. ''Serving one bot hot!''
Leo was fighting off another Foot bot, before another one charged at him from behind. ''Ah! get off of me Rahzar!'' screamed Mikey, before Donnie whacked him with his staff and they fist bumped.
And after Leo and Raph destroyed some Foot bots, Karai charged for them. ''Let's take her down, once and for all'' said Raph before Karai knocked him out of the way.
Leo went after her, while also trying to talk to her. ''Karai listen, Caitlin is Chris's sister, and I know you don't want to hear this but there's something you should know, it's about your'e father. ''Your'e real father.''
''I'm not interested in anything but you begging for your'e life.'' She charged for him again, but suddenly, the ground began to shake. ''Earthquake!'' Mikey shouted, ''In New York?'' Rahzar replied.
The ground broke apart as Leo saw that a water tower was about to fall on Karai, ''Karai look out!'' he kicked her out of the way before it landed on him.
''Leo!''
*…*
Chris was on the couch in his back, while his sister was sitting next to him watching Tv and watching what Leo watches.
''I think it's time to tell Leo that this show sucks as bad as their dialogue and animation.''
Caitlin rolled her eyes, ''come on, it's not that bad.''
''It's a cheesy show sis,'' Chris replied groaning loudly. ''And I hate cheesy shows. Almost as much as you not telling me what happened on your date.''
Caitlin stared at him. ''I don't have to tell you anything about what happened. That's classified.''
''Oh come on, I thought you were done with the whole secrecy thing. We're siblings.''
''I don't wanna tell you…because you may laugh at me…''
''I helped you get ready before you went out on your date. Did I laugh at you then?'' he asked.
''No…ok, ok I'll tell you. He took me to Central Park, we went for a walk then surprised me with a picnic and he gave me a rose. Then we got attacked by the Foot, but we fought them off and…I kissed Leo.''
''Oh, okay so it was a long and boring date,'' Chris grabbed a bag of chips and begins eating.
Caitlin took the chips from him and smacked him with the bag. ''Didn't you listen at all? I kissed Leo!''
''First of all, I know what you said and so what? I kissed Ale…Karai. And secondly aww my chips,'' he replied sadly as he sees his chips fall out of the bag.
Caitlin nodded, ''just checking I thought I would get a different reaction but whatever.'' Caitlin reached into the chip bag and started eating the chips that didn't fall out.
''Like what kind of reaction?'' he asked using his super speed to grab the chips out of his sister's hand.
Caitlin rolled her eyes, ''you know..shock that I kissed Leo.''
''I kind of figured you two would since I can tell you two like each other. Plus I know we haven't had much time to spend with each other because of what happened, but I trust you and if you kissed Leo then that is fine. Now if you two go past first base and go to second or home run then I will turn him into turtle soup.''
Caitlin blushed. ''I don't think were gonna go that far yet Chris.''
''Just saying,'' Chris then began looking around the lair. ''By the way, where are the guys? I thought they weren't going to take too long.''
''They said they were going out on patrol. I hope they didn't run into trouble.''
''It's them sis, they always do.''
Caitlin nodded. ''Oh crud. What do we do?''
''Order some Chinese?'' Chris asked.
Caitlin smacked him. ''No genius ''maybe we should go find them.''
''I'm sure they're fine,'' said Chris who doesn't seem concerned.
Caitlin sighed. ''I hope so.''
Suddenly, they felt the earth shake around them. ''What the heck?'' The earth shook again but this time harder, and scattered things across the lair.
''Take cover!'' Chris and Caitlin could get under a table in the kitchen.
''What's happening?''
''An earthquake, but in New York?!''
''What? that's crazy!''
As soon as it started a minute later ended, and they climbed out from underneath the table. ''You okay?'' Chris asked. ''Yeah I'm okay'' Caitlin replied.
''Whoa this place is a mess.'' They looked around and saw everything scattered across the lair and a couple things were broken.
Chris picked up one of the items from the floor. ''That was strange. How can there be an earthquake in New York?''
''I have no idea. But something tells me that wasn't the end of it.''
''With everything that has happened in this city, I wouldn't be surprised.'' Caitlin nodded. ''Agreed.''
Chris cleaned up the place when suddenly, Caitlin's T-phone rang. ''Hello?'' Caitlin listened for a moment before her eyes went wide. ''She did what?!''
Chris then heard what his sister said. ''Who did that? Is it April? Did she finally kiss Casey? If so Mikey owes me ten bucks.
Caitlin quickly hanged up the phone. ''Um no…that was Leo they said they were on their way home.''
''You said 'she did what?' you were talking about Leo?'' he asked confused.
''Um…''
''Caitlin, what is going on?''
''I-I can't tell you.''
''Why?'' he asked curious on what she knows. ''What is it? What is it? What is it? What is it? What is it?''
''Chris, Chris no! stop it!'' She went to sit down on the couch as he sat next to her and came close to her ear, and whispered. ''Tell meeee.''
Caitlin glared at him, before tackling him to the ground. The two got into as scuffle just as the turtles walked in and saw Caitlin pinning her brother on his back while holding his arm back in an armlock. ''Knock it off Chris.''
''Never!''
''Guys, guys easy,'' Leo ran over to Caitlin and took her off him. ''What's going on?''
''She wouldn't tell me who she was talking about then attacked me for no reason. I'm the victim here,'' Chris replied.
''Yeah you sure are'' said Raph.
Leo glared at him, ''Raph…'' ''what I'm just saying.''
''Look whatever,'' Caitlin looked at Leo ''can I talk to you? alone?'' ''sure.'' Caitlin pulled Leo away from the others and into the kitchen.
''What is it?'' Caitlin checked to check that Chris wasn't listening. ''Is it true? did Karai attack you?'' ''It's true.'' Caitlin stared at him, ''why? did she-'' ''no she didn't ask about you, but I was trying to tell her something important.''
''What was it?'' ''I-I can't tell you right now.'' ''Leo-'' ''let me talk to Master Splinter first.'' Leo squeezed her hand and then headed to the dojo. Caitlin sighed and hoped everything was okay.
*…*
Leo sighed as he walked into the dojo, and sat across from Master Splinter who was meditating. ''Master Splinter I tried to tell Karai…that your'e her father.''
Master Splinter opened his eyes and gave him a look. ''I thought if she knew, she might come over to our side.''
Master Splinter stood up, ''there is a saying he who runs his mouth gets a face full of nunchuko.'' ''They say that in Japan?'' ''they would if you were there. Still, your'e heart is in the right place. Perhaps, it is time she knew the truth.''
''Maybe you should tell the others Sensei.'' Splinter nodded as he called the others and Caitlin in. ''Hey wait, where's Chris?'' asked Caitlin noticing her brother disappeared. ''He said he got hungry and was gonna go get a snack'' said Mikey. Caitlin nodded as Splinter turned towards them. ''This is, difficult but it is time you all knew the truth. The child I thought I'd lost in the fire, Miwa, is Karai. My daughter. Fury became flame, and flame darkened the world with smoke. And in that darkness Shredder stole Miwa away. I thought she had perished, but she was raised by Shredder as his daughter and trained as a deadly foot assassin.''
The room went silent. ''Wait, this can't be…'' said Donnie, Raph shook his head, ''this is some kind of joke right Sensei?'' Caitlin's eyes grew wide, ''oh my God…'' ''Karai's our sister?'' Mikey said shocked. ''Sensei, she's still our enemy she was raised by Shredder!'' Donny nodded agreeing with Raph, ''yeah how can we ever trust her?''
Splinter walked over to shelf where he kept the picture of his beloved Tang Shen, Miwa, and himself when he was human. ''There is good in her I know this, the truth must be told and it to will be an earthquake.''
*…*
''Father should've been back hours ago With his new little secret weapon.'' Back at Shredder's lair, Shredder had left for a while to meet up with the assassin while Karai, Rahzar, Stockman, Fishface, and the army of Foot Bots waiting for his return.
''I've heard rumors it's a new mutant part woman, part tuna, all lover'' said Fishface. ''I hope not, I'm allergic to fish'' replied Stockman. Fishface glared at him, ''nothing personal Xever.''
''All I know is that he's a deadly assassin,'' said Rahzar ''the Kraang turned him into a mutant when he was a kid decades ago.'' Suddenly, the doors opened and in walked more Foot Bots and following behind them, The Shredder himself.
Karai bowed, ''Father.'' He nodded, as he walked to his throne. ''I have returned, and I bring with me the most feared assassin in all of Asia.''
Everyone turned towards the doors as a huge tiger carrying swords, tranquilizers and other sorts of weapons walked in and knelt in front of Shredder. ''Tiger Claw.'' Karai stared at the new mutant, ''This is your secret weapon father? another freak?''
The tiger stood up and stared at her, ''This is the Foot clan you promised me? I must say Master Shredder I am disappointed.'' Karai drew her sword, just as Tiger Claw drew a gun from his pocket.
Fishface ignored this, and walked over to them. ''I honor you great Tiger Claw, can I offer you some refreshments?'' Tiger Claw growled at him, before putting his gun away. ''Milk, skim.''
Fishface walked away, as Karai noticed something interesting about their guest. ''Senstive subject maybe but shouldn't tiger's have tails?''
''Don't mock me child. It was a rival who sliced off my tail one day I will find and he will pay the price.'' Tiger Claw replied as he took a sip of his milk.
''If you can't keep your own tail-''
''Silence Karai. You will treat Tiger Claw with utmost respect. He is my new second in command.''
Karai stared at him shocked, ''what? I've earned that job! not some oversized cat in a scarf!''
''Enough! Tiger Claw, take my daughter with you to capture Splinter and his turtles. Karai, do not disobey him.''
*…*
Meanwhile, across the rooftops of New York, Casey and April were on patrol together. ''So April, vigilanting is cool and all but how bout a real date?''
''what do you call this?'' ''I was thinking you know, maybe something a little cozier. You, me.''
''The Kraang!'' ''nah, aliens would just mess up my mix.'' April ignored and looked over the rooftop and saw the Kraang in the alley below them and were marching through some kind of portal.
''There's so many of them. And what are they doing?'' April climbed down into the alley and Casey was right behind her. ''That's a new trick.''
''I got this red,'' Casey replied putting on his hockey mask. He attacked one of the Kraang and April knocked the weird little brain out. Casey chuckled,''when you play cricket, you gotta have some crumpets.''
''That was dumb,'' they see Chris nearby with his back against the wall. ''And do you even know how to play cricket?''
'' Uh no, but hey I thought it sounded good.'' ''What are you doing here Chris?'' said April, ''I thought you were hanging out with Caitlin.''
''I was until I got hungry and went to get a snack,'' he replied as he uses his super speed to examine the portal. ''So, you two going to continue your date inside this strange glowing portal?''
April rolled her eyes, ''no Chris were gonna take this back to Donnie so he can examine it. You coming?''
''Nah, he always puts me to sleep everytime he talks a lot about science,''
''Why not take it to a real laboratory?''
''Trust me, Donny's way ahead of most scientists.''
''Boo, well I'll be off to buy a snack, See you guys back at the lair,'' Chris then took off and arrived outside the convince store.
''Later Chris, come on Casey.'' April said as they walked to the lair.
Meanwhile, Tiger Claw and Karai saw Chris with April and Casey, who Karai explained were ally's to the turtles. They followed him to a nearby convince store. Tiger Claw believe they could get some information out of Chris, but Karai wasn't too sure.
''I don't know about this Tiger Claw, it could be a waste of time.'' Karai was actually lying, the truth was she didn't want to hurt Chris again.
''You are too soft Karai,'' He took out his sword ''I will handle this.'' He charged into the store weapon in hand and Karai followed him.
''Tiger Claw, stop I'll handle this.'' Tiger Claw stared at her, ''you think you can handle it girl?'' Karai took her juji-ken. ''I think I can.''
She hoped Tiger Claw believed her lie, and when he stepped aside and let her by Karai felt like sighing in relief. She walked in, hoping that she would be able to talk to Chris before Tiger Claw came charging in.
Meanwhile, Chris was inside debating on what kind of snack to get. ''Oh man, why do they always make it hard for me to pick between the two snacks I love.''
''Hello Chris.''
Chris turns around and then see it's Karai, both shocked to see her and on guard. ''What are you doing here?'' almost sounding not happy to see her.
Karai looked at him, but knew he wouldn't be happy to see her. ''I'm here to talk.''
''Last time we tried that it was when you were attacking my sister and trying to take her away,'' he replied as he tosses the snacks where he got them from and tries to leave.
''Chris wait, I'm sorry about that really, please your in danger.''
''What do you mean, I'm in danger?'' he asked not taking it seriously. ''You've got dog-breath and fish-man waiting for me outside? Because I already took them on before, and I can beat them up again.''
Karai shook her head, ''No Chris, it's not them.''
''Then who?'' he asked confused.
''It's Shredder's new ally, Tiger Claw. A deadly assassin from Japan. He's after you.''
Chris began snickering. ''Really? That's the name? What's next? Does he have a Lion Claw?''
Suddenly, and explosion occurred knocking them and the owner inside off their feet. They looked over and saw the explosion.
''My moped!'' Chris shouts, and that's when Tiger Claw appeared.
''Karai, you were taking too long,'' he looked at Chris ''is this the boy?''
''Tiger Claw I had him right where I wanted him.''
''You the one who blew up my moped?''
''Yes, I am boy.''
''Well, you made a big mistake doing that,'' Chris could be ready to attack him, ''No!'' Karai found a pressure point and knocked him out.
Karai was shocked realizing what she'd done. Tiger Claw walked over to Chris and grabbed him. ''Well done Karai.'' He took Chris away while Karai followed sadly behind.
*…*
Meanwhile, back at the lair, April and Casey had just arrived, and were showing the turtles and Caitlin the portal.
''And then you press this button,'' April said as she opened the portal ''and portable portal.'' ''Wow, the Kraang are always one step ahead'' said Donny.
''Yeah this is crazy'' said Caitlin. ''I wonder if this is what behind the earthquakes, were gonna have to test it.'' ''I don't know Donny you think that's a good idea?'' said Leo.
But before Donnie could think about it anymore, Casey shoved them out of the way. ''If you turtles are gonna be slow about it, I'm going.'' ''Your'e crazy, nuts,''said Raph ''I'm going first.'' And he ran into the portal.
''Raph!'' Caitlin shook her head, ''is he insane?!'' Casey grabbed April's hand, ''come on red.'' Donnie looked shocked, ''April wait for me!'' as they went into the portal leaving only Mikey, Leo, and Caitlin left.
''Can't let them go alone dude'' Mikey said as he dove in. ''Mikey!'' Leo sighed and took Caitlin's hand. ''We better go after them.'' ''Agreed.'' ''Ready?'' Caitlin nodded, and the two of them walked through the portal as it closed behind them.
*…*
When Caitlin and Leo came out on the other side, they meet up with the others. It seemed that they were surrounded by portals, and dark clouds were all around.
''Okay this is weird…'' said Raph, ''you can say that again'' Caitlin replied as they split up and started looking through the portals. ''Wow,'' said Donnie ''it's like the grand central station of dimensional travel. The Kraang must use it as a gateway between realities.''
Mikey turned around noticing the portal disappeared. ''Guys the door's gone were trapped!'' ''there's thousands of doors. Everyone, start searching for a way home.''
Everyone split up as they started searching through doorways. Caitlin walked by a couple portals and looked in. One of them showed a small girl with black hair with blue streaks running away from the Kraang with the turtles, while the other showed Raph at the lair sitting on the couch with a fox girl mutant.
''Whoa that's weird…'' she shrugged and kept walking. Donnie walked by one and looked in. ''Whoa check this out April.'' ''Amazing, this is beautiful.'' Donnie smiled at her and was about to say something out when Casey jumped in.
''Well check this out red.'' The others followed and were shocked. They saw themselves, but they looked kind of weird. ''It's us!'' shouted Mikey, ''why do we look like dorks?''
Raph shook his head, ''wait…is that supposed to be April?'' Donnie eyes went wide as his heart started beating ''nice jumpsuit.'' Caitlin rolled her eyes, ''oh brother.''
Leo looked towards another portal. ''Guys look I think it's Dimension X…'' ''Home of the Kraang'' said Raph. Caitlin was shocked, ''whoa.'' ''This place is making my brain melt!'' said Mikey. April covered his mouth, ''shh I-I sense something coming.''
Suddenly the Kraang came and noticed them through the portal. ''Oh no,'' Raph said as he messing with the portal '' how do you close the door where's the knob, where's the knob?''
Leo took out his swords, ''get ready team.'' The Kraang leaped out of the portal shooting lasers at them. ''Bio droids destroy!'' one Kraang said it shoved Mikey. Casey took out his hockey stick and hit it right in the face.
Another one was about to fall on April, but Donnie pulled her out of the way. ''Thanks D.'' ''It was nothing. Look out!'' he said as they dodged another laser.
Meanwhile, Caitlin and Leo were fighting off a third Bio Droid, while Raph and Casey were fighting off a few of the Kraang, ''Casey Jones shoots he scores!'' another grabbed Donnie and slammed him to the ground, but not before April hit him with her tessen.
Leo took it down, as the second one charged for him, Caitlin, Raph and Mikey. ''Look out!'' but it slammed it's fists on the ground and knocked them back into a portal.
''Guys!'' Donnie shouted, they tried to follow them, but a Kraang closed the portal. They stared at it in shock. ''Their gone!''
*…*
Back in New York… a portal opened and Caitlin, Leo, Raph and Mikey fell into a dumpster. ''Ahh!'' ''uh guys,said Mikey with a lamp shade on his head ''what dimension are we in?'' Raph smacked him on the back of his head, while Leo climbed out of the dumpster.
''The others are trapped over there.'' ''Yeah, and the smart member of the team is over there with him'' said Raph.
''This is all your fault Leo if you hadn't gotten us-'' the ground started to shake again. ''Never mind that'' said Caitlin. ''Agreed, we gotta find the source of these quakes'' said Leo. They raced off, not knowing that Tiger Claw and Karai, were watching them.
''Karai, you have your instructions.'' Karai nodded, as Tiger Claw went to block their path. ''Who the heck is that?'' ''you may call me Tiger Claw!''
To be continued...
