So...Originally I was planning to add a chapter to the Punch Out fanfic tonight but it's the night I write with Svengoolie as the background noise and the net Punch Out chapter was going to be rather long and have a song in it, which normally requires more concentration and with normally pausing writing to pay attention to the Sven Segments I decided better to write a chapter that was...Less intense to write because less characters to juggle and also less 'choreography' that normally goes into a musical chapter, this is mostly just casual conversations and also originally for this chapter I was planning to reveal the Mutant Babies had been in the Fellowship and Caesar playing on Bridget's special computer for three days with Zeb secretly calling their babysitter Eartha the Mole to apologize and tell them where they were, but thinking harder about that, Eartha would never not tell the Fellowship Crew the cubs snuck away to the Fellowship for three days even if Zeb didn't reveal Caesar was playing on Bridget's computer, so more they played for one night while Eartha slept, so in this chapter the Cubs get a passing mention but no dialogue this subplot is gonna be a slow burn

Edward Nygma for his part was quite frankly astounded by what he had just heard! He quietly stepped forward and cleared his throat.

"Mrs. Holly...I...I want to thank you for protecting my son, before I knew I even had a son! I know this must have happened during my days as the Riddler, and to think that a child could perform such selfless acts of heroism while a grown man like myself became more and more like a petulant child...It just amazes me what maturity you Humanimals are capable at such tender ages! But I think that just goes to show what the Humanimals themselves have told me...That Humanimals mentally and emotionally mature much faster than their human counterparts…"

None of them had any idea, that the five Mutant Cubs were displaying a level of cunning and guile that that would would have made the Arkham Rogues proud back when they were villains! After Caesar played the new game he had discovered on Bridget's special computer throughout the night, finally logging off at four in the morning they went back to the elevator out of the underground spaceship garage back to the Earthport Apartments (Lucky for them cabbage seems to have a soporific effect on moles, their babysitter Eartha slept like a baby throughout the night) they wearily crept back into bed, their babysitter none the wiser and completely befuddled as the why none of the cubs wanted breakfast that morning!

But back on the Wrangler Cruise Ships, the conversation turned to Cara's young pup.

"And who's this handsome little devil?" Edward Green chuckled as he tickled the Wolf-Boy under the chin, this cub reminded him so much of his own furry little son Demetri, who has usually the case took after his Humanimal parent.

"This is Willy," Said Cara "Short for Wilfred...Named after his Grandfather who unfortunately...Was killed very soon by the Wranglers because he was a senior citizen and thus not able to work…"

Edward's was once again struck by guilt and remorse by what his people had done, what back then he would have seen as a necessary 'culling of a Humanimal no longer fit to be a slave! "I'm...I'm so sorry…"

"It's OK…" Cara said "...I know you didn't do it personally, you probably didn't even know the Wrangler who did it! Anyway the rest of my family came came through OK, Mom, Dad my little brother Rafi, they're all here on the ship but I wanted to personally greet you before getting off."

Edward stopped and thought about how much this Wolf had done for him, and that she had seen him and touched him when he was sick but he hadn't seen her, he wondered for a moment if she had been the Humanimal Girl he had fallen in love with instead of Minsk.

"Cara…" Edward said quietly "...What did you do when you heard of my betrayal of the Wranglers and my falling in love with the Mink-Girl Heroine.

"I just laughed and laughed…" Cara said "...The reason I had to save you was because I saw the conspirators! They're reason for wanting to assassinate you was because their soothsayers had predicted you would betray the Wranglers for the Humanimals and they wanted to kill you before that happened! So many of the older Humanimals didn't believe me when I tried to tell them, but me and some of the other cubs knew you had potential to be good...You were...Reasonable unlike some of the other Wranglers...When I heard you had done...I laughed because the prophecy had come true and I was imagining the faces of all those who doubted me!"

And both Edward Green and Edward Nygma's jaws dropped upon hearing this!

Meanwhile while Donatello and Belladonna were taking a brief nape to dream share in hopes of unlocking Don's hidden memories about his adventure with Arctica, Don's other brothers were incredibly curious about the Arctic Wolf-Girl and asked her some questions to help figure out when this adventure took place, with her memories of th event they were able to piece together with their edited memories of their search for Donny when this had taken place.

"Oh man!" Mikey said "I remember now! Don was trying to create Dr. Honeycutt's mentawave helmet in secret which I accidentally broke and Don got real ricked off about it...He disappeared for a few days...We found him in the mountains and he apologized and said he realized the world wasn't ready for psychic powers…"

"So this must have happened right after we thought we made a truce with the Foot Clan after stopping the Turf Wars!" Leo said

And originally I was going to write the turtles telling Arctica everything that had happened to them since then, but that can wait till next chapter
