TMNT: Worlds Rise
Chapter 5: New World, More Bad Guys
The Mad Dogs and the Hamato turtles had left the lair and were now waiting for their ride, which Donnie went to get right now.
"So, what glorious vehicle has my inter dimensional double will no doubt grace us with?..." Donatello asked, wanting to see it.
"You guys are gonna love the Shellraiser..." Mikey said.
"Ooh, Shellraiser. Jazzy name..." Raph said.
"I like it already..." Leon said.
Just then, Donnie appeared with the aforementioned Shellraiser.
"All aboard..." He said, hoping to show off to his counterpart.
Donatello was silent, but stared at the Shellraiser, which was basically a tricked out subway cart.
A far cry from his precious Turtle Tank.
"This is it?!..." He asked, almost disappointed.
"Uh...yes?..." Donnie said, looking self conscious now.
Raph noticed this and quickly spoke up.
"Oh, uh...it looks great...clearly, you worked really hard on this baby..." He said.
"Uh...thanks?..." Donnie responded, unsure how to feel.
"Raph..." Donatello said, but his big brother pulled him aside to remind him of his manners.
"They are nice enough to let us crash with them and give us a ride to a good butt kicking. Don't go all tech snobby right now on other Donnie, Donnie..." Raph ordered.
Donatello rolled his eyes, but could see what he was trying to do.
"Fine..." He muttered.
"Don't forget, our ride used to be a movie prop..." Leon reminded them.
Once done, they went back to their dimensional counterparts.
"Wait till you see the inside.. It's awesome..." Mikey insisted as he opened the door.
"I call shot gun!..." Michael yipped as he ran inside.
The Mad Dogs entered and saw for themselves the equipment the Hamato Turtles worked with.
"Sweet..." Leon went as he whistled in admiration.
"Okay... impressiveness levels went from low to mild..." Donatello admitted.
"We have a map of the city, I have my onboard computer... and best of all..." Donnie said before putting on some classical music.
All but one of the Mad Dogs groaned upon hearing it. Donatello, however, looked excited.
"You have Niccolò Paganini on this Earth too and can play it all throughout this thing?! Okay... impressive levels now high..." He went.
"Oh great... Is it too late to just walk?..." Leon asked, covering his ears.
"Don't worry..." Donnie said as he turned off the music. "Now, let's get this puppy started..." He said.
Leonardo sat at the driver's seat.
"Let's get going..." He said.
"Can I drive?..." Leon asked.
"I'm the leader of these Turtles, so I should get a chance!..." Raph went, pushing him aside.
"Please, let me give it a go. I am the one who has the most in common with this vehicle's creator anyway..." Donatello insisted.
"Two minutes ago, you were dissing this thing..." Ralph whispered at him, and as on glared at him.
"Ooh, can I go?..." Michael went.
As the four were ready to fight amongst themselves, Donnie clear his throat loudly.
"Leo drives..." He said.
Leon looked eager until Donnie spoke up again.
"Our Leo..." He clarified.
"What?! Why?!..." The Mad Dogs went in unison.
"He's least likely to hit something for fun..." Donnie stated.
"Fair..." All four went in unison.
The turtles, now boarded the Shellraiser, were off to their mission.
A little later
The group of turtles soon arrived to the docks, where their mission will soon take place.
"Okay, so what's the skinny, Chico's?..." Michael asked as they waited on info.
"Well, according to Karai, Shredder's henchmen have been spotted here for the past few days. Their boss being MIA, no doubt getting something for him while he's recuperating..." Donnie explained.
"Then we will show these versions of the Foot just what we are made of..." Raph said, cracking his knuckles.
"Maybe 20 tons of lame..." Raphael went under his breath.
"So, let's just break what they're here for..." Leon said.
"Not a good idea. Y'see... there's a good chance they're after this..." Donnie said.
He held up a picture he printed of the device in question. 6 Turtles looked at a loss, whereas one held a degree of recognition.
"That looks an awful lot like a potential time stopping device..." He commented.
"It looks like a stopwatch..." Leon said.
"I can tell from pieces and the power source. And some of those pieces I used in the portal tech that helped bring you here..." Donnie said.
"So... don't break it because it's our best shot at going home?..." Leon asked.
"It's one of many things I need, but it's our best start..." Donnie said.
"So, let's just get the stopwatch thing before the flameheads get it first..." Michael went.
"Flameheads?..." Raphael asked, wondering what that meant.
"What? The Foot aren't two bald guys with magic and no shirts? With dozens of lackeys to do the dirty work for them?..." Leon asked.
"Uh... no..." Donnie said as he pressed a button on his computer, showing off 5 mutants.
"These are Shredder's henchmen. Rahzar, formerly Chris Bradford, along with Fishface, Tiger Claw, Bebop and Rocksteady..." He explained.
"Whoa!..." The Mad Dogs went, surprised to see more mutants.
"That one looks like if Meat Sweats went on a turbo diet..." Leon said, pointing at Bebop.
"Meat Sweats?..." Leo asked, but received no answer.
"Wow, your version of Foot is already cooler looking than ours..." Michael said.
"Thanks... I think..." Leonardo said, unsure how to respond to that.
"Well, you'll find out if they fight cooler. Let's go..." Raphael said.
All 8 left the Shellraiser, heading in the direction of the crate that supposedly held the device they were looking for.
However, they were too late. They spotted the Foot.
"Is this device bug-man wants?..." Rocksteady asked.
"Think so..." Bebop went.
"Give me that, you idiots!..." Rahzar went, taking the device from them.
"This should allow Stockman to slow down Master Shredder's condition, giving us more time to aid him..." Tiger Claw said.
"And, if possible, make cracking those Turtles' shells..." Fishface said.
"Bradford, you hold the device..." Tiger Claw said.
"What?! Why him?!..." The other three complained.
"Because I must keep watch for those Turtles, Xever is to aid me... while the rest of you are too clumsy to trust..." Tiger Claw said.
The other three scowled at Rahzar, who scoffed at them.
"Whatever, lets just get this over with..." He said impatiently.
Unaware that their enemies were a lot closer than they thought.
Meanwhile
The 8 Turtles made their way out, and were now spying on their enemies.
"No good... they found it already..." Leonardo said.
"And it's with Rahzar!..." Mikey went, looking upset.
"Now how do we get it from him?..." Donnie wondered.
"The old fashioned way..." Ralphael said, sais ready.
"Wecant go running head first there Raph...ael. We need a plan..." Donnie said.
As they tried to figure out their next step, the Mad dogs were coming up with their own ideas.
"So, we gotta distract ol' bone breath there. I got a plan!..." Raph went.
"This oughta be good..." Leonardo said with an eyeroll.
"We just need two pounds of flour, ten pounds of sand, and-.."
"Or... we could do this!..." Donatello said as he gestured to a nearby costume shop.
Raph spotted a certain costume and grinned.
"Okay, time to adapt an old strategy of ours..." He said, grinning at what to do.
"Huh... was that always there?..." Mikey asked, as the Mad Dogs left to do their own plan.
"Think it used to be a toy store..." Donnie said, wondering what the other turtles were up to.
A few moments later
The Hamato Turtles were still trying to figure out how to get the time device way from Bradford and wondered just what their dimensional counterparts had in mind.
"This is crazy. These are our bad guys, we should be the ones doing the plan..." Leo said.
"No worries, we have a means to distract them..."Donatello said as he and his versions of Raph and Leo arrived.
"Where did you guys go? And where is your Mikey?..." Leo demanded.
"Shush...my plan is starting..." Raph hushed.
'Plan? What plan?..."Leo asked, wondering what they are up to.
'You'll see..."Leon said with an amused look.
"Let's go!..." Tiger Claw was heard shouting as the 5 started to leave.
"And... cue how we lured Hypno into a trap in 3...2...1..." Donatello said as he watched.
"Hello?!~..." A voice attempting a Southern accent called out.
"Who goes there?!..." Rahzar shouted.
That's when Michael stepped out, dressed like a girl wolf, complete with a pink bow.
"Oh... hello there! Y'all know where a new mutant wolf gal can grab a bite to eat?..." He went in a girlish tone of voice.
The Hamato Turtles stared incredulously while the Mad Dogs seemed pleased.
"All seems to be going according to plan. Glad I gave him that extra dose of female wolf scent..." Donatello said.
"My plan is brilliant..." Raph said while his counterpart looked at him like he was nuts.
"Are you kidding me?!..." Raphael questioned as his eyes almost bulged out.
"No one is stupid enough to fall for this!..." Leo said, gesturing to what Michael was doing.
"I don't know how your villains work, but ours are dangerous. Rahzar is one of Shredder's deadliest warriors. There's no way he'd fall fo-..." Donnie didn't get to finish.
Rahzar pushed past his allies as he approached the fake wolf. He looked angered before he suddenly made bedroom eyes at the apparent female canine mutant.
"Well, hello there, beautiful..." He said.
"Aren't you Kristoff Va- I mean, Chris Bradford?..." Michael asks, still using the girly voice.
"I was..." Rahzar grumbled.
"You look... much more handsome in person than your voicework in your cartoon led me to think..." He went.
"Oh... a flatterer... I like that." Rahzar pulled Michael in with an arm. "Come here, future Mrs. Bradford..." Rahzar went as he kissed the wolf's "head" on the lips.
With that, Michael grabbed the device they came for and slipped away.
"See? Told you!..." He went, showing the device to them.
"I'm honestly impressed..." Raphael admitted in a dumbfounded way, as Michael handed it to Donnie.
"I'm at a loss for words..."Donnie said, holding the stopwatch device while his mouth was still agape.
"Huh... I'm now wondering how effective that would've been before or could be from now on..." Leonardo went.
"Dibs on not wearing the dress!..." Mikey went.
Once Rahzar finished kissing the discarded head, he realized it was a costume. He threw it in rage upon seeing who it was, then in shock at seeing their bigger numbers than usual.
"WHAT?! TURTLES?! MORE OF THEM?!..."
Fishface, Tiger Claw, Bebop and Rocksteady all saw for themselves that there were more.
"8 TURTLES?!..." Tiger Claw shouted.
"How? When?!..." Fishface went.
"Never mind that! Tear their shells off!..." Rahzar growled, practically snarling at the mouth right now.
"Wow, he seems angrier than usual..." Raphael pointed out.
"Of course I am! Not only did you steal from me... you PLAYED WITH MY EMOTIONS! DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO MEET WOMEN LIKE THIS?!..." Rahzar shouted, gesturing to himself.
"As if you had it easy meeting women before you were dipped in mutagen..." Fishface snarked before being backhanded away.
"I'm making Turtle Soup for the entire Foot Clan tonight!..." Rahzar roared.
"Yep, he's mad..." Raph said.
"Looks like I broke another villain's heart. These suits have too much power..." Miguel said.
"Wait? Another?! You have done this before?! And it worked then too?!..." Donnie asked incredulously.
"Of course it worked...it was MY plan..." Donatello said proudly.
"And here's MY plan! Foot Ninja! Attack!..." Rahzar shouted as pointed at the Turtles.
Soon, dozens of foot bots appeared to surround them...however, the Mad Dog didn't realize they were robots yet.
They just saw enemy ninjas that they had to take down.
"Ah, here's a familiar feeling..." Donatello said.
"Alright, let's send these guys back to the chat rooms..." Leon said, notably getting Leo's attention.
"Chat rooms? Wait, do you think th-..."
"HOT SOUP!..." The Mad Dogs shouted before attacking.
Leon kicked, Big Raph punch, Don thrusted his bo after it released a drill and Michael tripped one ninja with ease.
Big Raph then noticed the head of the ninja he hit went flying off, much to his and his brothers shock.
"Oh man! What did you do?!..." Leon went, horrified.
"I..I..." Raph panicked before seeing sparks come out.
"Robots?..." He asked, his panic replaced with confusion and relief too.
Seeing this, Leon stabbed the ninja he fought, seeing sparks as well.
"These guys use robots for ninjas?..." He asked.
"Fascinating..." Don went, examining the robot he just defeated.
"That means... we don't gotta hold back!..." Big Raph said victoriously as he punched another bot's head off.
"Okay...I'm starting to see more of you in him..." Mikey told his own brother.
"I'm not..." Raph said as they too fought of Foot bots.
"Alright Mad Dogs! Let's recycle these tin cans!..." Big Raph ordered as he blocked one robot with his tonfa.
"Head's up!..." Leon quipped as he cut one robot's head off.
"Ugh..." All but one Turtle went.
"Ha! Head's up!..." Mikey went.
"What? You throw party and not invite us?..." A Russian accent was heard.
"Time to party, Turtles..."Was also heard.
The Mad Dogs and Hamato turtles turned to see a warthog mutant and a rhino mutant standing there with intent to fight.
"Oh great, who are these guys?..." Leon asked.
"You guys don't have a Bebop and Rocksteady back home? They're Shredder's latest henchmen..." Leo said.
"Uh...which is which?..." Miguel asked, pointing at each.
"I am Rocksteady, he is Bebop..." Rocksteady answered.
"Much as I wish we'd drop the names..." Bebop muttered.
"Okay, we've fought these guys before, let me-..." Leo went before getting cut off.
"No worry, I'll handle these big boys..." Leon said, seeing a good chance to show off.
"What? Wait a minute!..." Leo called out.
Rocksteady raised his arms, attempting to flatten Leon, who easily rolled out of the way.
"Come on?! This is what stick in the mud me deals with?..." He taunted.
"Hold still, other turtle!..." Rocksteady shouted before pulling out the hammer.
"I got this, Rock!..." Bebop went, firing shots at Leon.
In response, Leon opened a portal and entered it, much to the two's surprise.
"Where did turtle go?!..." Rocksteady questioned.
"Up here!..." Leon called out as he kicked Rocksteady into falling on Bebop.
"Rock buddy... cut back on the stroganoff..." Bebop muttered.
"Hey look, a rocking ham sandwich..." Leon joked.
His double heard this and frowned.
"Geez, he sounds like Mikey..." Leonardo muttered before he heard Raphael snicker.
"I feel less embarrassed by my other me now..." He said.
Rahzar slashed out at the two Michelangelos, both of them easily flipping out of the way.
"I'm going to peel you limb from limb!..." He shouted.
"Oh, he's burning in rage!..." Mikey went.
"Speaking of burning..." Michael went before his kusari-fundo stretched out and, to Rahzar's shock, wrapped around his legs.
"Hot Soup!..." He shouted.
With that, Michael swings Rahzar up before slamming him into the ground.
"Oh! Caliente!..." Mikey went in amazement.
"Gracias..." Michael said before he flinched at an awful smell.
Ugh...one thing I DON'T like is the smell of burning dog hair..." He said, waving the air away form his nose.
"I'LL FEAST ON YOUR BONES!..."Rahzar yelled as he attempted to bite at them, only to be burned again.
"Would it help if I said sorry?..." Michael asks, only for Rahzar to get back up and snarl at him.
"I'm going to slaughter two Michelangelos for the price of one!..." Rahzar shouted.
Both Mikeys huddled together.
"I'll take that as a no..." Michael went.
Fishface fired at Raphael before directing his attention to Big Raph.
"A bigger turtle? A bigger target!..." He went, smirking darkly.
Fishface jumped into the air and aimed his leg downward. Big Raph responded by creating an energized fist to block him.
"Yo, Raph! In the mood for some seafood? It just needs some tenderizing!..." He said before throwing Fishface at Raphael.
"Fine with me..." Raphael said before readying his fist to hit Fishface between the eyes.
Fishface ended up hitting the ground, only to stand on his hands and spin his robot legs to kick both Raphs away.
"I don't know how you added your numbers, but I'm about to subtract a larger amount!..." Fishface said, as he charged at them again.
Tiger Claw watched from afar, stroking his chin.
"The last time I encountered other Turtles, it was from that other world. Perhaps this another example of this?..." He questioned as he watched the fight.
Both Donatellos were surrounded by Foot Ninja.
In response, Donatello maintained an unamused look as his staff created a rocket fist and swung it around, smashing them to pieces.
Donnie stared in shock before looking to his own staff, mildly jealous.
"Lucky..." He muttered.
"Take this! Tartaglia!..." Donatello said, clearly showing off.
Four ninjas remained before their eyes glowed red.
Donatello performed the same tactic, only for them to duck out of the way in time, much to his surprise. He attempted it again, only for one to jump over him in time and kick him down.
That Foot attempted to attack before Donnie stabbed it in the head with his bo's hidden blade.
"Forgot to mention, but they learn as they fight. The more still standing, the harder they are to stop..." Donnie said as he blocked one's sword with his staff.
"Ah, adaptive robots. I'd call the genius behind this amazing if they weren't trying to kill me..." Donatello said as he got back up.
"We don't have to keep fighting. We got what we need!..." Donnie said.
"So, should I portal us out?..." Leon asked.
"Leo... or Leon... whatever! You! We don't know this world well, we might end up in a giant meat grinder or something!..." Big Raph pointed out.
"We got something else in mind..." Leo said as he nodded to his brothers.
As they huddled together, Mikey threw one of their smoke bombs to the ground, creating the perfect distraction to escape.
Once the smoke was cleared, only Michael was left.
"Mikey!..." Donatello went.
"Oh... uh... heheh... uh..." Michael went, surrounded by 5 mutants and some robots before a portal opened.
"BYE!..." He went quickly, entering it fast.
Once they were gone, the Foot were left standing.
"Where'd they go?..." Rahzar went.
"Find them! Retrieve the device!..." Tiger Claw ordered.
As they were about to go, Rahzar noticed the discarded wolf head and cleared his throat loud enough for the rest to hear.
"I'd uh..." He went, clasping his hands and pressing his trigger fingers together as he looked extremely embarrassed. "I know we should question the presence of their numbers increasing, I'd appreciate it if no one mentions the little stunt those extra Turtles pulled... especially to Master Shredder..."
Bebop and Rocksteady shared a look before the former did the "lips sealed shut" motion. Tiger Claw nodded with a flat look. Fishface, however, snickered before Tiger Claw slapped him in the back of the head, shutting him up.
"Fine..." Fishface grumbled, soothing the back of his head as they resumed.
Later
It took moments, but the last Foot bot left, making it seem they've given up and left.
"Looks like they gone..." Miguel said as the 8 Turtles came out of their hiding spots.
"Aw, man...I wanted to smash some more of them robot things...they were a lot more sturdy then the paper ninjas back home..." Raph said.
"Paper ninjas?..." His counterpart asked.
Before he got a response, his counterpart was approached by Leo, who was also glaring at Leon too.
"I'd say that ended well. Up top..."Leon said as he high fives Raph.
"Ended well? That was way too chaotic!..." Leonardo commented.
"It worked, didn't it? We got the thing your Donnie needs to get us home, no one but the bad guys got hurt and they ran out of robots to let us break..." Leon said dismissively.
"That's not the point..." Leonardo said.
"It worked, we won, that's all that matters..." Leon said.
"Gah! They ran out of robots! I was gonna smash some more of them!..." Big Raph went.
"Finally, starting to see a little of me in there..." Raphael commented.
"I am serious. You guys charged in there and it's only pure luck that that little stunt you pulled worked on Rahzar..." Leo said.
"Hey, my plans and idea work fine back home. Our Donnie can prove it..." Raph stated.
"By prove it, he means refine so it doesn't completely blow..." Donatello said.
Leonardo was ready to argue, but Donnie held him back.
"Leo... remember... as chaotic and kind of snobby they are, they did help us get at least 40% of what I need to send them home..." Donnie said.
"Fine..." Leo said with a defeated groan.
"So, where do we get the rest?..." Michael asked.
"That's gonna have to wait later. Let's head back for now..." Donnie said.
"Fine by me..." Donatello said.
As they headed back to the Shellraiser, Raphael approached his counterpart.
"So... paper ninjas?..." He asks as Big Raph started explaining on the way home.
