Okay doing this from the new computer which I'm still breaking in. I might grieve a bit but if it can get the job done it can get the job done and that's what's important.

I own nothing except the stuff I made up!

Troll Busters

Leo was pretty sure it had been a crappy week. On top of the Rude reception the heads gave them. They also had to deal with the Mutant Mafia coming out of nowhere and back for Krysta. And losing control of their powers. They were slowly getting them under control again. But what if they just grew stronger.

He knew that was stressing Mikey out. Speaking of which he had come into the living room. "Hey buddy, you okay?" Leo asked noticing something was wrong. Mikey began growling and gripping something nearby. He had seen that before.

"Crap!" Leo swore under his breath as he jumped up dropping his Jupiter Jim number three hundred fifty-eight and grabbed one of his Katana's. Immediately he opened a portal open them. Leo tumbled out he heard Mikey start screaming and attacking the area they were in. Leo hid and watched letting Mikey scream as he thrashed the few trees in the empty field they were in. Eventually he was calm.

"Mikey?" Leo asked coming out when he felt it was safe.

Mikey fell to his knees as Leo knelt beside him. "You're okay, I took you out of the lair. No accidentally smashing anyone again." He joked. Mikey hugged him tightly and began to sob. Leo held him close as he hugged Leo and sobbed into his chest.

It was about a half hour before April and Carol noticed Leo coming in. "Does Carol have some time?" Leo asked. "Mikey just had a Rage attack."

The two ladies looked at each other as April helped Mikey to the couch. Carol sat across from him as they began to talk. Leo sighed keeping his distance since it was a private thing. As he did however he noticed something on top of April's Mail.

Art Contest

Entry time May 7th – May 14th
Contest on the 15th first prize

Leo didn't really care about the Prize. He just knew Mikey had been interested in entering an Art contest now they hade one. He grabbed it grinning wildly as he rushed back into the living Room. "Mikey, Mikey, Mikey!" he said excitedly. "Prepare to be the happiest you've been this year!" he said stuffing the flyer right in his face.

"Easy! You hit my nose!" Mikey whined as he read it acknowledging Leo's quick apology. He did however smile. "I've been hoping to see this! I think I have an idea of what to do!" Mikey said excitedly.

"That's great you should totally enter Mikey! You'll do great!" April said with Mayhem nodding from her shoulder.

"You think so?" Mikey asked.

"I know so!" April assured.

Carol gave Leo a thumbs up as he grinned in response arrogantly. "You should do it Mikey! I think having your art appreciated will do you some good. And something I've been meaning to talk to you about."

"What?" Mikey asked.

"When you're up to it. I think you should take a trip with your brothers and father to the Hidden City." Carol said. Mikey frowned and hung his head looking nervous.

"Is that a good idea? He has no good association with it. Aside from Krysta beginning to live here maybe." Leo pointed out.

"I understand but it's not healthy to avoid triggers forever." Carol noted. "That's also why I suggested you guys go with him."

"If it helps, I'll figure something out. I trust, you Carol." Mikey assured as Leo looked worried.

X X X

Mikey spent the next week working on the picture and sadly, for the twins they quickly learned Mikey knew some barrier spells against Tech and Portals. He wouldn't let anyone see it. Not even Klunk or Leo. "Come on Mikey! I want to see!" Klunk whined.

"No Klunk it's a surprise for all of you." Mikey said as covered the now finished picture and putting a hoodie on before.

"However right now they were in deep thought. So, who do you think it's a portrait of?" Donnie asked.

"Probably me I did save his life after all." Leo said with false casualness.

"No, it could very well be a picture of me scoff!" Donnie bit.

"What reason does he have to draw you!?" Leo growled before both got hit upside the head by Raph both, yelping in response.

"How about you two support him regardless of what the picture is?" Krysta huffed in annoyance. "I don't like that they're just having the art sit there until the next morning. There's been word of Art vandals in the city."

"We can't have art vandals mess with Mikey's painting we've gotta keep watch and protect it!" Raph suddenly said.

"Yeah!" Klunk added. "This is his first competition! We can't let anything happen to Mikey's painting."

Leo and Donnie had to agree. Putting their Ego Dreams aside. Leo told him about it to help him feel better. And he never got to do this with Draxum. "Okay," Leo hummed pulling out the Advertisement he had found a week ago. "It's at the Museum Arts and Framing." Leo replied. "If there are Art Vandals! Then they'll have to get through us to get to Mikey's painting!" Leo declared boldly.

"YEAH!" everyone agreed loudly.

X X X

The five of them had staked out near the Museum on a building adjacent of it. Donnie had scanners everywhere at every possible entry point!

"See anything yet Donnie?" Raph asked.

"Nope so far so good!" Donnie replied.

"I'm not seeing anything here either." Leo said watching with his Night Vision Goggles. They were ready for anything. Well almost anything…

"I found something!" Klunk said suddenly behind them.

"You catch a Pidgeon Klunk?" Krysta asked with interest.

"Well…." Klunk said starring up at them as she sat. "No," she said pulling out the corpse from behind her. Instantly Krysta recognized what she was looking at a dead Troll like Yokai with a mouse skull and pelt over its head and back.

"FRICK!" she yelped.

"What?" Leo asked with an arched eyebrow.

"Remember those Bobger Trolls we used to get away from Draxum? That's them that's what they look like which means the vandals are Bobger Trolls! And if she's found one then they're already here to trash the entries!"

"Mad Dogz! Let's get down there!" Raph declared as he jumped down. He was followed by Klunk and Leo with Donnie and Krysta bringing up the rear. Klunk took the front sniffing the air before rushing forward and striking a Bobger Troll that was trying to destroy a vase in the museum. It had lifted the vase over it's head.

"Bad Color!" he hissed but he screamed as Klunk immediately attacked him. Donnie used his mechanical arms to catch the vase while a fight between the two broke out. The Troll slashed her nose making her yelp as it hissed at her threatening to bite. Klunk hissed back as she swatted at the small beast it hissed at her some more trying to bite her but she was too fast and began rapidly swatting it till it was dizzy.

"Who's in there!?" shouted the security guard as everyone hid Leo grabbing Klunk before she could sink her teeth into the unconscious Bobger Troll.

The Security Guard looked out and found the vase on the floor. "The art vandals! Where are you come out!" He hissed, suddenly there was a loud gurgle, and he held his stomach. He wasn't a large full body man. But something about that indicated he was a big eater.

"ooof those tacos are doing a tango in my tummy." He said going to the bathroom.

However a bunch of Bobger Trolls suddenly drove up on a cart in front of him. "Ten Million gold!" shouted one.

"What!? I don't have that! Let me through!" the guard growled only to be bit and scratched by them as Raph immediately jumped out unable to watch anymore.

"Hey don't charge people for basic needs!" Raph growled pointing an accusatory finger at them.

They hissed as they rushed at Raph and the others. "And suddenly I don't need to go anymore!" the Guard cried before running away.

"TMI!" Leo shouted gagging a little at that revelation.

The Bobger Trolls hissed and pointed at them Krysta recognized this call. "More are coming!" She yelped as suddenly a large wave of evil mouse image invoking Trolls dove at them.

Raph was smashing them rapidly and kicking them. But was getting covered in them as Krysta kept blasting them for Ice. Donnie was quickly overwhelmed as Klunk was getting exhausted from swatting and hunting.

"HELP! HELP, HELP, HELP, HELP!" Donnie cried out, Klunk immediately turned into a large fan and blew them all off the Soft Shell as Leo kept trying to port them away. But they kept reappearing in the other room.

"My Powers aren't working again!" Leo moaned with a growl. Raph also started losing control of his own powers.

"NO!" he cried as he smashed a nearby sculpture by accident while trying to smash away several of the trolls. They looked at the smashed sculpture and cheered before placing up a stick figure made of twigs and glue with a crudely carved cantaloupe for the head. Then came a sign that said, "Sixty Gold for looking."

The trolls turned to them specifically Leo, Krysta, Klunk and Donnie who were staring incredulously at their crude copy. Raph was sniffling a little. "MONEY!" they shouted.

"We're not giving you money for your badly made crap!" Leo snapped as Krysta gasped.

"You shouldn't have said that" Krysta muttered fearfully.

They let out hatefully high-pitched screeches at the group. Donnie covered his ears in discomfort as magic swirled around them. "What now!?" Raph growled as suddenly the many, many Bobger trolls became large muscle-bound ones. With larger rat skulls but much smaller pelts around their shoulders.

"Oooohhh, Boooy….." Leo whimpered as one went towards them and lifted a large fist and threw it down towards them. The group screamed and scattered as it came down. Once it did one of the other large Trolls had torn open a door. Inside were various covered pictures with numbers pinned to the covers.

"The Contest entries!" Raph shouted. It was too late the Bobger Trolls grabbed them all and jumped out of the sky light with them in tow.

"Who do they think they are the Hulk?!" Leo groaned.

"Here start reading," Krysta said stuffing her schoolbooks she started carrying around with her for them. Donnie any ideas on where they went?!"

"Well thinking this might happen I did put a tracer on Mikey's entry. No I did not look it was a blank canvas at the time. And now I can just track it." Donnie replied, "Oh look at that they're at the farthest south corner of central park.

"Then let's hurry we've gotta get Mikey's painting back!" Klunk cried. "And the others too I guess," she hummed.

X X X

It didn't take them long to go to where the entries had been taken thanks to the Turtle Tank. But It did take them a bit to find exactly where they were the Bobger Trolls were. Luckily, they were able to follow some carnage as signs were suddenly put up everywhere and various trees and plants had been smashed and broken along the way.

"Those fiends!" Donnie hissed. "Absolutely no respect for plants or Art! Especially our baby brothers who needed this for Therapy!" he growled.

"Shh listen!" Krysta hissed as her ears twitched. "I think I hear them." She said rushing over in a direction closer to the small river at the back of the park.

"I can hear them!" Leo said as they hid in nearby bushes that were behind the Trolls. They were gathering mud and garbage and were sharpening their claws. They had changed back into their tiny easier to manage forms and they were chanting.

"IMPROVE, IMPROVE, IMPROVE!" they chanted over and over.

"What world do these things live in!?" Leo groaned in surprise his face made quizzical from what they were doing versus what they thought they were.

"Not ours clearly." Donnie huffed.

Klunk sniffed the air. "I smell Mikey's scent!" she gasped. She then saw it they had pulled a picture forward. Number ten. "They're starting with Mikey's!" Klunk cried.

"Not on my watch!" Raph jumped out. "POWER SMASH JUTSU!" he shouted slamming down onto the small crowd. He had full control grinning as he didn't even touch the pictures.

The trolls snarled at Raph biting him as he growled and began spinning rapidly covered in his Mystic avatar. This made the Trolls scream flying off with red stones stuck in their bodies.

"Oh, that's new." Raph hummed in shock.

"Ohhh I want a new attack!" Leo said excitedly eyes sparkling. He rushed forward swinging his sword with a chortle however nothing happened to the trolls what did happen was two portals opened above and Below Leo he screamed in frustration and distress as he started falling between the two portals as the Trolls watched twitching in pain from the red avatar stones as they did so.

"Where, is, Mikey, when, you, need him!" he yelped screaming loudly as he fell over and over in the two portals. "I'm, gonna, hurl!" he cried however Klunk was quick to change her tail into a kurosai like what Mikey used to have and managed to pull him out when she felt Leo grab the ball and tug. She groaned and pulled hard pulling him out.

"Maybe just stick to just fighting for now," Klunk huffed.

"I hate how that's both true and hurtful." Leo grunted in defeat.

Krysta was quick to knock several up into the sky. Before they tumbled down as ice cubes from her Icy Fury Gelato kick. They groaned quickly breaking free and charging but Donnie had the taser out and zapped several. Then came that horrible shriek.

Donnie covered his ears. "AHHH AGAIN WITH THE SHRIEKING!" he groaned as he activated soundproof mode in his headset.

They changed again, becoming the muscle-bound forms from before and the three large Trolls charged at them. Klunk snarled and began to change into a Water Panther and charged at one of the Trolls with Krysta hot on her heels.

Raph took on one on his own grappling with it as Donnie and Leo teamed up. Leo slashed at the Troll it grabbed his Katana's however Donnie was quick to slam his rocket extension into it's head making it scream.

The troll that was fighting Raph managed to push him away then charged at Mikey's painting. "No you don't!" Raph snarled charging after it. Leo, however, jumped in front of the paintings with the Troll rushing at him.

"MOVE!" it roared angrily. Leo didn't respond beyond swinging it's sword which it grabbed again. But suddenly small rocks had been caught up in blue electricity and pelted against the Trolls head making it scream as it stumbled back.

"OOOOHHHHH NEW ATTACK! You've been uhhhh Portal Bulleted….no, oh wait- AHH!" Leo quickly dodged out of the way of the one Krysta and Klunk were fighting. She slashed at the Troll's large face, but the skull was now too thick for her to cut through. The Troll grabbed her and threw her into the river. But Klunk merely jumped out of it like a fish and tail slapped the Troll into Donnie who smirked.

"AH HAHAHA!" he cackled as he knocked it into the air. However, the Troll angled itself and fell on Raph. He yelped in pain and tried to push him off. Leo tried to help by Portalling away the Troll but he wasn't able to get the Portal right because of his wild ability. Instead, he just unleashed a flurry of Portal Bullets that everyone had to duck from.

"We're losing control again!" Raph cried as he started growing Krysta yelped and tried to get to the pictures to get them to safety however the Troll that had knocked Donnie back punched her and had her fly into the Soft Shell.

"Oww!" Donnie groaned. Raph was thrashing however Leo was finally able to rescue the paintings with a portal.

"Nailed it!" Leo cheered. The paintings had landed safely behind them. The Trolls hissed at them hatefully as Klunk hissed back with just as much venom in her Water Panther form. Raph was finally able to come back down as he groaned.

"Are we done yet!? It's getting harder to control our powers and these trolls have the energy too match the wealth of bad executives!

"Executives! That's it!" Leo cheered. He grabbed Donnie's wrist band and started tapping into it.

"What are you doing?!" Donnie asked surprised.

"Trust me I got a genius plan!" Leo said grinning. The Turtle tank showed up.

"EXCUSE YOU!?" Donnie hissed angrily.

"Hey Bobger Trolls! I'll make you a deal! All these pics if you can destroy Donnie's Turtle tank."

"BAD!" Klunk screamed.

"Nardo what are you doing why did you just say that!?" Donnie growled eyes wide with shock and rage.

"LEO!" Raph screamed. "ARE YOU CRAZY THEY'LL WRECK MIKEY'S PAINTING!"

"But I have to warn you, this thing is this thing is a monster!" he said making Klunk, Krysta and Raph ease a little. "This thing has a bowling ball canon, Boom Canon's taser whips and can easily tank a massive amount of hits and was recently upgraded to go toe to toe with a Rhino made of Diamond!" he said looking at the Troll's nervous sweating faces sinisterly. He slid up to them whispering in their ears.

"And if you lose, you get nothing! Zilch, nada!" he said lips right up to a Troll's ears as the three screamed like little girls and ran off into the night as Leo stood there smirking and watching them go.

"How did you know that would work?" Raph gasped incredulously.

"If there's one thing Studio executives hate more than paying their Employees it's taking risks. Thank you, Dad, for never shutting up about his Lou Jitsu days." Leo said happily.

"Well warn us next you do that," Krysta huffed. "Because I'm pretty sure Donnie was contemplating Fratricide there for a second."

"Contemplating! If anything happened to my Baby, YOU'D BE DEAD!" Donnie hissed growling at his twin who chuckled nervously.

"And the winner is Woody with his amazing landscape!" The Judge declared on the PA. The small boy grinned holding up the Trophy as well as his landscape picture of a

Mikey, however, got third place. "I'm so sorry you didn't win first place Mikey," Krysta sighed.

"Seems kind of disappointing since we did all that work." Klunk sighed.

"It's okay I appreciate you guys protecting my painting and everyone else's. I've only been painting for a little while so I'll get him next time." Mikey said before rubbing his hands sinisterly. "Next year I'll knock their socks off!" he said grinning as Krysta sighed good heartedly.

"Can we see your painting now?" Leo asked.

"Oh yeah!" Mikey cheered. He pulled out his picture and placed it down where they would see it. The four grinned as they gazed upon it. At the bottom was glowing ice in light blue and a sparkles, of orange and yellow with a green light along side a pale light teal. In the center was a small orange flame surrounded by blue lightning going one way and red stones going the other. Surrounding it horizontally was purple tech squares of power.

"I saw this when I was pulled out of the armor. It gave me hope because you were all there to save me." Mikey said reverently. "No matter what I know you guys care about me. And that means more to me than I can ever explain."

The five teared up eyes glimmering. "Awwwww!" Klunk and Krysta hummed together.

Donnie hissed rubbing his eyes with his arm. "I don't usually feel things but that one got through!" he said as Raph pulled them all into a hug. They all hugged Mikey tightly. It was finally then he began to feel much better about the events of the week before.

This was a shorter Chapter and I apologize. Hopefully I can get a strong groove to carry me soon. I'm working my way back into it
