I own nothing except the stuff I made up

Raph and Slash!

It had taken a couple of weeks, but Mikey had finally picked a day for the group to go down to the Hidden City for a day of Fun. As he entered the area, he felt a slight chill. He reminded himself that Draxum was gone. There was nothing to fear anymore. He kept close to everyone as they gathered around a large map of the city.

Everyone began to look it over, listing off the things they could do. The things Mikey had wanted to do when he lived here which made him brighten a bit.

"Hidden City Zoo," Raph pointed out.

"Oooh Luxury resort!" Leo hummed with interest.

"Battle Nexus!" Donnie said as they all pointed at the billboard.

"Oooh Witch Town!" April added. Tiger Claw had come along he was watching silently as Raph turned to the others.

"Alright we've narrowed down our list to two-hundred activities. I don't want to spend my whole day in the Hidden City voting so I suggest we each do our own thing." Raph said as everyone agreed. They said bye going their separate ways.

Raph pulled up a pamphlet from the tourist boost that was located at the center of the city. "Police Ride along, ride side by side with the Hidden City Police, as they conquer crime in the Underworld and you get to keep on confiscated item." Raph read as he perked with interest giggling a little. "I am NOT passing this up!"

With that Raph marched off towards the Hidden City Police station. A large imposing building with hologram screens of wanted criminals above the whole building was a floating rock replica of the council of heads. Raph entered the building when he got there he saw several cops facepalming and groaning. One was even lying about being sick nearby.

"How many times do we have to do this stupid routine!?" snarled a voice. "It's like you have short term Memory loss for this specifically!"

Raph went forward a bit to see another Turtle, maybe a Kappa although Raph couldn't shake the feeling, he was familiar. He looked a lot like Raph in Stature in fact Raph was a bit weirded out by how similar they looked. The other Turtle's Shell had large crescent moons of Onyx running down his greyish green shell back-to-back. He had stripes on his arms and face wrapped around his head, also Onyx with a pale greyish Cerulean. His spikes were sharper than Raph's, but he was also wearing a pair of Hakama's with a form fitting shirt that was open at the back for his large shell but looped around at the lower back sort of like Krysta's shirt. He had ninja white wrappings on his arms.

A Purple eagle Yokai groaned, "Man, Master Azulong's gonna yell at us all again! What do we do?"

"What we always do." Said the grey dog Yokai sitting beside him. "I hear Olympus is nice this time of year." He said as he and his friend began putting in their vacation time. He had a sash over his right shoulder with Earth and mountain patterns on it.

"How do we know that you didn't steal all that stuff!" said a silver-colored Gorilla Chief that was glaring back at him. The Turtle Raph could tell wasn't much older than him. But he was equal in height.

"This!" The Turtle said pulling up an Ornate looking Axe with twin curved Blades at the top curving down. It had a spear on the bottom and a jagged handguard around handle where one was supposed to hold it. The wrapping there was onyx, and the blade was a dark Silver on its tips and jet black on the Axe with a couple of Black gems embedded in the Center of the handle. "Is one of the Legendary Sacred weapons! They Cannot follow me now! CANNOT be wielded by anyone other than their chosen wielders!"

He then pulled up a medallion he had around his neck gold with a paler shade like a star around it and a red pearl with some kind of insignia in the middle. "This Medallion burns anyone who tries to take it! I AM A MEMBER OF THE SACRED GUARD!"

"And yet you look just like Heinous Green." The Griffin Yokai snarled back. "I Don't like your attitude!"

"WE'RE NOT THAT SIMILAR!" The Turtle shouted in frustration before pulling up a poster and showing it to them. "What differences do you see!?"

The two cops stared for a bit and the Jeopardy theme began to play as they stared and yet nothing entered their heads. They did however see Raph. "HEINOUS GREEEEEEENN!" They screamed, pointing loudly.

"What where?!" Raph asked turning around and looking for the Crook as the other Turtle began to scream and shrieked at them in Japanese! Which surprised Raph. Among his brothers, Leo knew the least but still a decent amount, Donnie was practically fluent, and Raph was pretty good. But it had been a while, and he was rusty. But he could pick up on Baka for Idiot and Teme the lowest form of you. He could also detect a stream of filthy insults beginning to pour out of his mouth. The cops were getting mad.

Raph immediately rushed over and covered his mouth. "Sorry about this, officers have a good day!" he said as the other Turtle began biting him. Raph yelped and held on as he rushed out the station with other cops reasoning with the two chiefs as Raph rushed back to the main square.

The turtle had stopped biting him just before he had let go. He began counting. "Dude, you okay?" Raph asked with concern. The other Turtle put up a finger as he finished.

"Sorry you were just trying to help and biting you was mean," he sighed.

"Uhh don't worry about it." Raph muttered a bit confused. "Name's Raph."

"Slash," The Turtle replied. Facing him Raph could see he had a pair of fangs and he looked like Raph too minus the head shape as he had a pointed chin.

"Were you here for the Ride along as well?" Raph asked.

"No, I was looking for information on Baron Draxum. Partly because I'm curious about something. And partly because that was my mission. We need all the information before we can properly sentence him."

"BARON DRAXUM IS ALIVE?!" Raph yelped in shock. "After the absolute, vicious, brutal beating my- errr somebody gave him!"

"Sounds like you were there," Slash said with an arched eyebrow.

"Well, I don't know who beat him up." Raph lied. He didn't want Mikey to get in trouble with anyone, the guilt was still tearing the poor guy apart enough.

"Well believe you and me, it wasn't pretty he only came out of Critical condition a couple days ago. And honestly, I thought he was gonna die! He's got large scars on his back. Burn marks so bad fur and hair won't grow back there. Both his shoulders were torn open. Badly broken arm. Permanent damage to his knee and vocal cords, he's lost an eye. And ruptured several organs. Fortunately, none of them were the vital ones. Though the Appendix was one of them." He finished holding up a finger.

"Yikes," Raph muttered in shock.

"Yeah, like I said not pretty," Slash deadpanned.

"What's the Sacred Guard though?" Raph asked.

Slash thought a moment gathering his thoughts. "A thousand years ago, the world was devastated by vicious powerful demons! The Identity of some were unknown, they fought against the Demon-Dragon known as Kavaxas who wanted to have his domain the Netherworld subject the earth. While the other demons sought to destroy and remake it in their own twisted image. And as the world was ravaged between their infighting and conquest. Five Powerful Yokai revolted against them. Wielding Powerful Sacred weapons gifted to them by the Heavens. Each bearing an element: Earth, Lightning, Thunder, Wind and Fire. Armed with their hope for a better tomorrow the Yokai used their powers to fell the Demons and sealing them away forever." Slash explained. "From that day on the weapons were kept, in the Yokai City that was the last strong hold against them. Oashisu where new warriors every generation would be chosen to carry on the legacy and defend the world. Should more great calamities befall it."

When Slash finished Raph was looking at him starry eyed. "You guys are Superheroes and your predecessors fought Demons!" he giggled in glee.

"No one wants to do that apparently, and its worse than it sounds." Slash replied cautiously, from what he had been told. When there was suddenly an explosion with electricity crackling as standing there were three thugs that invoked the images of Donnie, Leo and Mikey. One of them was an electric Eel Yokai. He was a pale greyish yellow with light blue fins, with an orange helmet with his head crest sticking out of the top. He also had small fins at the sides of his face and orange freckles.

The one in a purple pin stripe suit and fedora with ears sticking out was a brown rat Yokai with nicked ears, large front teeth and large clawed paws for feet with crooked whiskers. The Yokai at the front had a blue headband in greasy untamed navy hair. He had a red lightning bolt mark over one eye and pale dirty green skin. He had a snaggle tooth like Raph and was wearing a black shirt with a torn blue jean vest and pants. He had scars over his body and a chain hanging from his pants and sandals.

"Who'd have thought they kept all the stolen loot at the Police Station! Ehh Malicious Mickey!" asked the Rat.

"I know! I don't know what those two cops were so distracted with, but they beefed it Dastardly Danny!" the Eel Mickey replied.

"Shut up you two, we need to get out of here!" Shouted the blue clad one.

"Yeah, Yeah Loathsome Lenard, we hear you!" Dan snapped grumpily as they took off running. They immediately grabbed a transport throwing their loot in the back and shutting it as they took off. "We'll just take this transport for ourselves thank you! "He sneered as they jumped on the back and took off forcing the snail to take off quickly. The two Police Chiefs from earlier

"That can't be good." Raph muttered.

Slash took a breath. And sighed before thinking a little. "Hey, it's not a Ride along but how'd you like to team up with one of Sacred Guard for the day?" Slash asked.

"YES!" Raph shouted stimming with joy a little as he had a big toothy giddy smile on his face. They immediately found a nearby Yokai to use.

It looked like a Pterodactyl Raph didn't have time to ask about it as Slash pulled him on and had the bird took off. Despite its size it was able to carry the two large turtles quite well. It wasn't long before Slash saw the two Police Snails.

"There!" He shouted, pointing as he had the bird dive towards them and get level with Cops flying alongside them. The Griffin turned and growled shooting at them.

"What are you doing?! We're trying to help you!" Raph snapped.

"How stupid do you and Heinous Green think we are!?" The Griffin venomously asked, taking another shot that Slash was forced to Dodge. "Evil Emerald!" He declared holding up a Wanted posted that depicted a Terrapin-esque Yokai with Emeralds on his shell and an emerald Beak. He had a Unibrow with thick edges and several spikes running up his forearm to his elbow as opposed to Raph and Slash's one on each elbow.

"That's not me!" Raph said incredulously, "he doesn't even have my handsome snaggle tooth! OOOH!" he yelped ducking from a shot from the Silver Gorilla Yokai.

"Forget the Tooth! He doesn't even have lips! WE HAVE LIPS!" Slash screamed his eyes losing focus from frustration. They got shot at again. Slash tried to have the bird fly up, but it was hit causing the two Snappers to go flying into the transport the crooks had been using making it fly down into the mushroom forest out of the sight of the cops.

X X X

Raph groaned as he sat up and cleared the Cobwebs from his head. He didn't see Slash, but he did see the Crooks assessing the Damage. "Psst!" he heard Raph turned to see Slash waving him over before he could move however, Lenard noticed him.

"Hey, you!" he growled Raph froze. "What do you think you're doing?" he asked dangerously pulling out a knife comb.

"He must've been what the cops were shooting at earlier!" Danny said examining Raph who was getting anxious. Mickey was right in Raph's face.

"Are you a criminal too?" he asked. Raph quickly glanced over at Slash who just shrugged nervously.

"Yes, Yes I am!" Raph said flatly and a tone that was calmer than he felt.

"Ya gotta name?" Lenard asked.

"Uhhh its…..ummm The Ruby, Assassin of Preventing Happiness!" Raph declared proud of himself for that. "Or Raph."

"Dude! That is so HARD CORE!" Mickey said excitedly stars in his eyes. "We're the Mud Dogs!" A Flag went up in Raph's head from the Similarity to Mad Dogz. "We ought to make him our leader!"

"Yeah I second that!" Danny said.

"No way!" Lenard snapped. "Blue guy is always the leader." He snapped jabbing a thumb at himself.

"Yeah, yeah, shut your word hole Lenard!" Danny snapped before turning back to Raph with a Grin. "So what's the plan new leader?"

"Uhhhhhh. Well….we need to…take the Loot back into the arms of its rightful owners!" Raph declared. Slash face palmed and held his Axe tightly however the three Mud Dogs burst out laughing.

"Oh ho, that's rich," Danny chuckled. "What you clearly mean is we're gonna stash it in a hideout." He guessed.

"Obviously, unless this guy is more brain than muscle!" Lenard spat. "Or worse some goody two shoes."

Nervous Raph thought for a second as he summoned mental Raph his inner voice who was talking with someone. "Ahh sorry just giving Leo Advice what's up big guy?"

"I need a plan how to deal with those guys!" Raph hissed.

"You just need a clever way to get them caught like this!" Mental Raph began whispering in Raph's ear.

"That is a good idea!" Raph said with a grin.

"Hey! New leader!" Lenard spat venomously. "You gonna tell us where to go? Or are you going to keep muttering to yourself.

"Don't worry I know just the place for a perfect hideout!" Raph replied chuckling evilly as he mentally located a place remembered on the map. The Hidden City High Security Prison at the edge of the Mushroom Forest not far from Witch Town. But in the opposite direction of the Surface Pillar ruins.

As they walked Slash shadowing them from afar, Raph had carried a couple of the bags of loot. The rest of the Mud Dogs were carrying a bad each. "You sure you know you're going or what you're doing? I've never even heard of you Assassin," Lenard growled as Danny hit him upside the head. The two started fighting as Raph pulled them apart.

"Don't worry!" he said confidently "I know a lot about Crime, one might even say I'm an expert!" Raph placed them down and continued towards the Prison. Which caught their attention when he stopped in front of it. The Prison had an incredibly tall tower in the middle and had Police Balloons all around it. And thick walls and vicious snarling three headed hounds that guarded the doors snapping at even the slightest movement.

"You want us to break into Prison?" Lenard asked skeptically.

"I know but trust me it's the perfect hideout! They'd look for people breaking out of Prison. Not for people breaking in!"

The Mud Dogs seemed impressed. "Ooohhhh that makes sense," they said together muttering about how smart that was, with Lenard mentioning he must have been in the debate team.

"Alright hop in!" Raph said having put all the loot in the largest bag with Danny and Mickey jumping in while Lenard was a bit more suspicious. Not changing his smile once Raph pushed him down. He then tightened it, lifted the bag with all his might and swung it around in a circle several times before throwing it where it crashed into the wall at a high point in the tower.

"Nice work," Slash said from behind him coming out in street clothes. He was wearing a torn black hoodie and brown khakis. "I put these on just in case. But you had everything under control."

"Yup those Bozos are as good as caught!" Raph said as he went to leave only for Malicious Mickey to pop up from below making him trip back.

"All set boss who's your friend?" Mickey asked.

"Uhhh he's an associate of mine…. Uhhh" Raph began trying to think of a name.

"Slash?" Slash squeaked.

"OOOHH Another hard-core name! come on in dude!" Mickey said, grabbing both and pulling them down where they fell and landed on the ground and looked up.

What they saw was a fancy room with polished furniture, a pool table several replicas of Rare paintings and a large screen TV and table with a buffet currently on it with a gold woven table runner.

"We landed in the Minium Security presidential suite. We can come and go as we please!" Danny declared.

"How did that work so well it, went so wrong!?" Raph hissed to himself before glaring at Mental Raph. "Did you do this!? Are you a mole?!" He hissed before attacking himself as Slash and the others watched.

"Okay roughing yourself up is hard core," Slash muttered.

"I hear that," Lenard declared as Raph finished punching himself. He walked up to the Snapper. "You know at first, I thought you were put in charge just for change. Which actually hurt my feelings. But here you have a real knack for crime!" he said with a smile.

"Guess we know what we gotta do now huh boss?" Danny asked.

"OH, I know! Run outside wearing these large heavy helmets and confessing to a crime!" Raph said holding up a head helmet that shouted.

"I AM A CRIMINAL!" it said with smoke burning from the nose. Slash sighed, the three stared before laughing again.

"HA HA! Come on." Lenard chuckled good-heartedly. "We gotta kick a share of this up to our boss."

"Kitsune?" Slash asked with an arched eyebrow.

"What no? We don't work for her." Lenard said in a duh tone. "Plus, I heard she mainly operates in Asia. It's Big Mama we gotta kick a share too other wise eeuuguhhh." He squicked.

"Is there any wiggle room in that?" Raph asked nervously. Danny laughed wheezing a little.

"You're such a kidder, but no we die come on!" he said to them the Turtles forced to follow for now.

As they left Raph leaned in close to Slash. "How do you know Kitsune?" Raph asked.

"You've run into her?" Slash asked. Raph nodded.

"I'm a bit fuzzy on the details though," he admitted.

"She's a crime boss not to the extent of this 'Big Mama' but enough to cause trouble. She's been causing issues for the Guard and Oashisu for years." Slash explained.

"Hey how much you want to bet those two Chief of Police were distracted by thinking that Sacred Guard Kid was Heinous Green?" Lenard asked.

"I'd say about fifty gold." Mickey declared with a slight sneered.

"You give those Racist Punks way too much credit, one hundred." Danny chuckled.

"So does them mixing up people happen often?" Raph asked.

"Only if you're a Reptile Yokai, which is like whatever we're still stuck under here by humans and have mystic powers. Ah well, them confusing every Reptile in the city with Heinous Green and Evil Emerald just makes our jobs easier."

Slash was growling as they approached the Battle Nexus. Raph gulped trying to brave as they entered.

"Hey once we're done, we should check out this new Champion Shadow Fiend!" Danny said.

"Oh yeah, he's kicking Ass left and right! And I heard last night was a totally blood bath!" Lenard said with a sick grin. "That'll be worth some of the loot."

They entered the door as they did and turned down a couple of halls Raph could begin to hear Big Mama's voice. "You know how important this is Frieda. We'll need it for my upcoming Battle Nexus WIzban. Guard it carefully."

"Yes Mother," Frieda replied. As she left she walked past Raph and Slash. Raph tried not to make eye contact but he couldn't help but notice her look at them for a while it creeped him out. Could she tell yeah she had too, she and Big Mama were much Smarter than the Mud Dogs.

"Well!" Big Mama said from within her office as Raph tried his best to hide Slash simply didn't know what to expect so he was playing it cool. "What brings you fine thugy Doodles to Big Mama?" she asked coyly.

"We just made a huge score! And we're here to give you your cut." Lenard replied. He suddenly gasped as did the other three as Raph ducked down behind Slash much to his annoyance. He hissed a hey at Raph as Mickey through a sack. "We've got a sweet hideout in the Hidden City High Security Prison and Robbed a Police Station!"

"My Goodness!" Big Mama said genuinely surprised. "How did you manage do that."

"Our new friends here distracted those two Bozos and played their Racism like a fiddle! We also caught sight of one of them stashing Loot in a room at the station.

"Impressive, sounds like a contrast to one of my Sparkly new associates." Big Mama said as there was suddenly powerful Foot Steps coming towards them. The Mud Dogs Oogled a large Lizard like Yokai with Red fins at the side of his head. He had a large yellow snaggle tooth kind of like Raph's and had his build but bigger. There were key differences. First off he had a large tail with Red spikes. He also wore a chain with a lock on it a torn brown vest with a different shade on the edges that curved down. He had a dark red sash around his waist. Ninja wrappings on his arms and legs and spiked bracelets.

"The Legendary Heinous Green!" they said together in awe.

"Raph you totally got to meet him." Lenard said as Raph squeaked.

"Oh we are so dead…." Slash muttered under his breath.

"Raph?" Big Mama asked with an arched eyebrow.

"Ruby Assassin of Preventing Happiness!" Mickey said excitedly. "And his Associate Slash! These guys are hard core."

"Raph and Slash are the guy's Danny just told you about. And Raph's a criminal Genius!" Lenard said shoving Raph out for Big Mama to see as Slash turned pale.

Raph's eyes widened at the sight of her as she walked up to them. Raph laughed nervously as Slash smiled and waved just as nervously. "Errr uhhh Hi Big Mama….." Raph squeaked.

"Hello Turtley-Boos." Big Mama said sweetly almost laughing. "Well Gentlemen you'll be disappointed to know that these two are not Criminals. Quite the Opposite in fact. One is even a member of the Sacred Guard."

"WHAT!?" The Mad Dogs screamed before turning with Murderous glares on the two Turtles.

"Our bad!" Slash said with a worried laugh as they backed away from the three.

"Alright we owe you an apology for kind of a lot!" Raph muttered nervously as Slash slowly reached into his pocket as Big Mama transformed.

"Yes, yes, Mistakes were made and lessons were learned." Big Mama said transforming as her claws wriggled. "Destroy them!"

The four charged as Slash pulled out his Axe and it crackled with Black magic with one swing, he caused a large Rock for them to crash into before swinging it and sending Big Mama off in the other direction as the two jumped out into the arena and began to make a break for it.

"After them!" Lenard shouted as they heard the four rush out behind them. Raph yelped as bolts of electricity rushed out at them. Raph yelped dodging them as Heinous Green jumped in front of them.

"Good work Heinous!" Mickey shouted as the two turtles were surrounded. Raph suddenly pulled out his Sais and charged up an attack His fists glowing red and bigger as he took one large punch.

"Power Smash Jutsu!" He shouted as he swung, sending the three flying into the air as Slash readied his Axe against Heinous Green he sneered as he began to bulk up.

"Raph go now!" Slash said as he charged swinging his axe above him to go for a hit however Heinous Green merely punched him causing him to go flying across the Shopping district as Heinous Green ran after him.

"SLASH!" Raph yelped in fear as he ran after him. Slash was screaming as he passed over Donnie fixing something in Witch town with Heinous Green running past it as Raph found another Bird Yokai and used it to try and chase after them. It didn't go well however as he began crashing through the entire marketplace. Smashing through several signs and wood, not unlike Donnie during the Drone Races. And crashed into a cat Yokai with a wheelbarrow. The poor Woman dodged out of the way.

Raph was now holding onto to the Bird's Talon's for dear life as he sped down the hill as the bird tried to get away from him. He flew off a Ramp holding onto the bird.

"I'M GONNA HELP YOU SLASH!" Raph cried. However, the Bird suddenly kicked him off and Raph went falling onto the Face of Heinous Green just as he was about to find Slash in front of him. He smiled when the monster growled at him. "Uhhh hi! Funny how we look similar!"

Heinous went to punch Raph but the Snapper was quick to dodge causing him to punch himself in the face and fall back as he landed with Slash recovering. "Looks like we share more than looks."

"He's huge I can't overpower him!" Slash warned.

"We're gonna have to work together to get rid of him." Raph stated.

Slash looked around taking a breath as he noticed something. "There's a cliff over there distract him and I can trip him over it."

"Great!" Raph replied as the giant tried to find them. "If he's more brains than brawn then let's outthink him!" Raph rushed up a nearby ledge and whistled catching the monster's attention before jumping on his shoulder and giving the biggest raspberry he could muster.

Heinous snarled and slammed his shoulder as he ran around after Raph and punched him as Raph dodged several punches even jumping up on his arm to climb back up onto his face.

"I wore it better than you ugly!" Raph sneered. Heinous threw a punch but Raph dodged making him punch himself right between the eyes. Black eyes began to form. Raph then clung to his shirt making him punch himself in the stomach.

He roared in frustration. "Catch me if you can asshat!" Raph sneered as Heinous tried to swing his tail Raph however jumped on top of it making him trip himself. Raph gave another Raspberry as Henious stomped on his own tail. He screamed like a little girl.

Raph turned slapping his butt. "NAH NAH!" he mocked. The chase began again as Raph lead Heinous towards where Slash was waiting as he charged up his Axe and swung it down as hard as he could making a large wall of earth for him to trip over.

"I'm ready finish him off!" Slash called as Raph made himself bigger and grabbed Slash having him ride on his shoulder. He could feel the power edging out Raph focused as hard as he could before having his Avatar shove Heinous into the ledge. He screamed and tumbled into the area below he shrunk back down to size seeing stars.

"Heinous Green!" Mickey called as he Danny and Lenard rushed up to him.

"Are you alright?!" he asked as the monster sat up growling as he rubbed his head. They heard sirens.

"Come on! We'll get you out of here!" Danny said, leading him along as they raced out. "Welcome to the Mud Dogs Heinous!" he said as the four disappeared into the forest.

X X X

"Freeze Heinous Green and Evil Emerald!" shouted the Silver Gorilla.

"We're not Heinous Green and Evil Emerald!" Slash shouted in exasperation. "Emerald's not even here! And the real Heinous Green is down there!" he screamed, pointing down the cliff they had sent him over.

"A likely story! You Reptiles are all, alike!" The Griffin growled there was suddenly high pitched squealing as an inflated Macaque Yokai came tumbling down crashing into the two cops and all three bounced away down the Hill.

"Yeah I think we're done here," Raph muttered.

"Are you as Done as I am?" Slash asked.

"Nope I'm even more done," Raph sighed as the two exhaustedly fist bumped.

"See ya!" they muttered as Slash went off somewhere. Raph meanwhile walked over to the Tourist center and collapsed on a picnic table.

Not really fond of that ending sorry hopefully I won't have that problem again soon. So yeah Slash! Also things have changed up a bit in the Tales of the Hidden City Arc. Leo's hasn't changed too much once again. But we'll see one other change later. And I feel really bad for Raph here. He basically got Racially Profiled and suffered for it because the Cops are freaking idiots. No ones really getting arrested this time slight spoilers. Because honestly the ones that deserved it were Draxum for his Crimes and Donnie because he was being a destructive stubborn Asshole
