I own nothing except the stuff I made up!
The Broken Seal!
"The seal is in the Twilight Realm!" Lieutenant said as he threw in one of his portal rings and drew a rune on it. Instantly it opened revealing nothing but green and gold skies and strange objects within. "Keep your wits about you! This place has messed with people's minds!" Lieutenant warned as they all jumped inside.

The door had been blown clean off its hinges. Police Tape was everywhere but it looked as though not much investigation continued to take place. Though Mikey noted some things were missing. There was even a hole that had smaller ones around it like the one on Leo's carapace rim. Indicating that's where Draxum had dug himself out. The machine in the middle of the lab had mostly remained standing but the container for the Ooze had broken open. What remained of the unused Ooze had bubbled over and cooled. Sitting there and hanging like some kind of emerald hardened honey or sap that glistened in the light of the artificial sun in the Hidden City.
"Is that what I think it is?" Krysta asked.
"Yeah, don't touch it, no telling how it'll react to DNA now." Mikey said, putting an arm out in front of her as she stopped just behind him. Both Shelldon and Donnie pulling down his goggles scanned it.
"Well, if I had to guess it's now highly Toxic." Donnie said noting all the many skull and cross bones, do not touch and poison! lining his vision.
"Yeah," Shelldon agreed getting the same alarms. Mikey glanced up to the area where his room had had been. It looked like the structure of it had remained mostly intact or maybe the damage from Draxum instead. Curiosity got the better of him, however he felt a hand grab his wrist. Splinter's.
"It's not worth looking my son." he said softly. Mikey decided he was right. He didn't need to give himself anymore grief.
"Guys I found the basement!" Raph shouted as they all gathered around him. He reached down and pulled open a door that had been tightly shut. Mikey was first to head down it. Klunk jumped onto his head becoming a large headlamp and turned herself on. Shelldon and Donnie were at his side shining their own flood lights as they looked around. As they went down the stairs the crystals that provided light for the lower lab had since been shattered.
"Well guess we know where that monster came from." Leo chuckled nervously noticing large claw slashes in the wall with indents indicating something climbing up. There was light pouring into that area of the room. But Mikey knew the portal was a bit deeper. Dead vines and other plants lined the wall Mikey tore some away as he set foot on the ground. The bottom floor had a soft green light at the end of the tunnel.
"Is that it?" Donnie asked.
"Yeah, it is, it looks like it's been closing without someone to keep it open, we're gonna have to pry it back open." Mikey explained.
"Let me try something," Leo said pulling out one of his Katanas and letting it glow blue before stabbing it into the small glimmer that reacted a bit violently letting magic shoot and spark out as Leo pulled the sword with great difficulty.
"Careful Leo!" Tiger Claw warned. "If you go too Deep into this you could hurt your arms!" Mikey, Raph and Donnie immediately gathered around the slider and gripped his arms helping him to pull as Shelldon used his rocket to try and push with April, Splinter, Krysta and Tiger Claw also pitching in to help. Eventually there was a burst of light, and the door was open.
"It worked!" Leo cheered happily as they all jumped in. Now enveloped in a sunset like light with the sky a strange emerald, green strange silhouettes lining the sky.
"So can you tell us anything else about this place Mike?" Krysta asked.
"Well, I do know Draxum was looking for something in here. But he would never tell me what." Mikey replied. "Also, the deeper we go, the weirderthis place is gonna get."
"How weirder are we talking?" Leo asked.
"WORST CAM-EO EVURRRRRRR!" shouted Tankceratops floating around and spinning off into the distance behind him.

"So, remind me again how we're supposed to find Shredder's soul in…. This whole situation!" Rocksteady asked gesturing to the entirety of the Twilight Realm.
"The Shredder's evil is great! No matter what we'll know it when we see it onward!" Lieutenant ordered. Not to far away from them was Klunk trying to see what she could spinning around a bit and zipping back and forth before crashing into Mikey's arms.
"Klunk!" He said worriedly.
"It's all the same and spinny…." Klunk slurred.
"I can't sense anything in here!" Shelldon groaned. "How are we supposed to find the Weapon Seal thing!?"
"There's no fast way to do this." Mikey explained sadly.
"The Twilight Realm is where things go to be lost….possibly forever." Splinter added.
"So, it's where all the lost socks from the Laundry go then?" Krysta joked only for Leo to gasp.
"My missing Jupiter Jim sock!" he gasped grabbing it out of the air as a bunch of socks began to slowly float by them. Leo nuzzled it happily. "I'll never let you go again!"
"That's not gonna fit you anymore." Donnie pointed out sliding diagonally behind his twin who gave a half-lidded glare at him, as Krysta put her hands to her head in shock.
"I was freaking kidding!" she yelped. A Goku action figure then floated towards Tiger Claw who silently gasped starring at it.
"Is that yours?" Mikey asked, noticing it bounce lightly against Tiger Claw's nose.
"Uhhh, yeah," Tiger Claw muttered grabbing it and putting it in his pocket.

The Foot Clan continued on their way Bebop sniffed something then began to sniff the air. "You smell something Beep?" Rocksteady asked.
"I smell…a disturbance…." He muttered in a trance. The Hamatos were walking nearby only for the ground to break under them. They all screamed as they fell deeper into the Twilight Realm. "Never mind crisis averted."
Mayhem immediately teleported them upwards to a nearby ledge. They looked over the cliff and saw the rocks disappear into the silver mist below. One of the things they saw was some of the debris being blasted out by a floating eyeball that then looked up at them to their fear.
"This is bad! I can tell we're further away from the seal!" Mikey immediately took off running he could sense the others following them he was trying to lead them back towards the seal but only found a dead end. "How are we gonna get back!?"
Leo looked over the edge and hummed for a bit, "I've got a genius idea!" he said jumping much to everyone's horror.
"LEO!" everyone shrieked. Looking over the edge only to see him on a floating rock going up towards them.
"What?" he asked.
"I told you to warn us next time!" Krysta snapped.
"I did," Leo protested simply.
"I have a Genius idea is NOT a warning!" Krysta shouted, as Splinter through a missing sandal of his that had just been floating by at Leo.
Leo yelped as the slipper pelted him in the face he rubbed between his eyes where it stung. "Come on guys. Gravity doesn't work here like it does back home! So, hurry and hop on!" he said as everyone jumped for it.
"So quick question what would you have done if gravity worked the same?" Tiger Claw asked Leo.
"Portal my way back." Leo replied smugly.
"With your powers having a chance of going out of control?" Tiger Claw suggested darkly.
"Ooooohhhhh," Leo muttered admitting silently he didn't think of that.
"Yeah, that's what I thought." Tiger Claw growled.
Donnie put his foot out next, it stuck to the side of a rock they were quickly passing the others followed suit as they began to climb back up to just ahead of where they had fallen. Roses were falling up around them as everyone gazed in awe.
Unfortunately, they reached the same dead end just further down. "Now I've got an idea," Krysta said noticing a floating Rock nearby them. She jumped on it before shifting it towards another rock she quickly crossed too before jumping off and freezing several falling rose bunches before leaping across them and through them like lily pads before landing above them.
"Mikey send your chains up here!" she shouted from above.
"Okay!" He shouted, activating them and letting them stretch up to Krysta who helped them find something to tie onto nearby with that done Mikey was able to lift everyone up to the other side of the hole. Shelldon and Klunk flying after them.
Mikey shivered feeling something evil. He knew it was the Shredder's soul. "the seal…. it's further up!" he whimpered.
"Step aside it's Portal time!" Leo declared as he opened several portals leading them up. But they suddenly fizzled out. "Are you kidding me!?" he groaned.
"Well good thing you were right weren't you." Tiger Claw growled as Leo laughed nervously.
"I've got an idea!" Klunk suddenly said as she grew as large as she could some of the roses tumbling off her, she knelt down for everyone to climb up once they were all on she flew up. Leo kept getting hit with Roses much to his annoyance as Donnie enjoyed smelling them. Mikey saw one Rose fall neatly in Krysta's hair he blushed and shook his head trying to distract himself.
"Uhhh, what's the plan for fixing the seal when we get there!?" Mikey asked. "I did not look into that!" he squeaked.
Tiger Claw pulled out a tag. It had insignias for sealing away evil on it. Mikey studied them as he looked it over. "This is meant to strengthen the seal there now. I'm not sure what we're gonna do if it breaks. It would've been nice to have a mystic stake for sealing as a backup." Tiger Claw sighed.
"Relax we ninja up to the seal ninja it on and Ninja on home. How hard could it be to find the seal?" Leo asked as a shadow Loomed over them. His lips puckered and drooped in shock at what he was looking at as his eyes got to the size of dinner plates. "Humana, Humana, Humana, Humana, Humana, Humana, Humana, Humana, Humana."
"Humana, Humana, Humana, Humana, Humana, Humana, Humana, Humana, Humana!" everyone mimicked looking to see the giant black iron looking ball with a skeletal shredder-like face on it wrapped in chains tethering it down for miles. The rest of the orb in the black metal was a pulsing red sphere of energy that Mikey felt penetrate his very soul. It felt like he was back in the Dark Armor again.
"THAT'S A FUCKING DEATH STAR!" Tiger Claw shrieked.
"FOOOOTTTT CLAAAAAAANNNNN!" They suddenly heard shrieking as Foot Recruit came rushing at them. Donnie immediately got between her and the others as his tech bo became a shield that she smacked right into and slid off. She fell for a bit before swimming back towards the rest of the Foot Clan who were staring right at them as Klunk landed on the cliff adjacent to them as Foot Recruit got back to her feet from climbing back up. "I am looking forward to lacerating each and every one of you!" she said not even skipping a beat as April growled at her.
"Not if I lacerate you first!" she threatened, pulling out her bat! With that the two charged as Bebop and Lieutenant summoned a barrage of Paper Ninja that that Mikey immediately mowed down with his nun chucks. Shelldon immediately transformed into his normal flight mode readying a Bowling ball canon as Klunk became one and jumped inside it.
"Fire!" she shouted as Shelldon launched her. However, Brute was able to catch her skidding back a little before throwing her back. She screamed Shelldon yelped and immediately went out of the way going back into his robot body as Klunk turned into her drone form before tackling Brute in the gut as hard as she could knocking him back into the ground.
"Archemedes!" Donnie shouted using the rocket extension on his tech bo to fly. Leo jumped off from it his Katanas under him as he angled himself towards Lieutenant.
"Katana Bomb!" Leo shouted Lieutenant pulled out some Kunai and blocked the attack. But the Impact still placed him into the ground. Managing to angle his foot Lieutenant kicked Leo off him and rolled out of the way of Donnie's Rocket hammer.
Leo however had been grabbed and thrown over the edge by Leo using his Bike Jet back Donnie immediately dove after him as Raph with a snarl charged slamming his fists into Bebop and Rocksteady who had stolen Leo's swords as Donnie swept up Leo and flew up as Raph recovered the swords.
"Raph look out!" Leo shouted, jumping from Donnie's back and grabbing one of his swords as Brute went to sucker punch his brother. But Leo was faster swinging his swords and opening a portal between his brother and Brute's fist which then exited into his own face. Brute grunted as Rocksteady charged at them.
Using his Power smash Jutsu Raph grabbed Rocksteady by his horn and the two entered a grappling match as Mikey leapt over them and tied Bebop up with his chains throwing him away. Bebop suffered some burns. Not what Mikey wanted but the Warthog Mutant was quick to bounce back and dodge several in coming hits from Leo and Donnie with his sense of smell as April and Recruit fought in a dust cloud in the background.
He then used the same tactic to Dodge a kick from Mikey then punch him with his brass knuckles.
Mikey, however, was quick to regain his senses and rolled over Krysta's back as she ducked down to let him. She then froze a block on her fist upper cutting Bebop was Donnie distracted him with several blasts from a gun mode on his tech bo.
He then quickly changed his weapon back to it's Bo form pulled out a fist extension and sent him flying into the wall. Mayhem teleported them all away from a sneak attack from Brute as Tiger Claw kicked him away. As Brute went for his weapons Splinter was quick to steal them and spun then around slashing at Brute who had to go on the defensive.
Raph who had managed to throw Rocksteady into a nearby wall rushed over and slammed his fists into Brute the three went to charge at Lieutenant next however he sneered at them and held up his hand magic crackling in it as a large worm like creature with no eyes and sharp teeth and a small cute looking extension with a puppet mouth came rushing at them. Tiger Claw pushed Raph out of the way.
But in that moment the two were attacked by the monster that flew away with them on it's head trying to avoid having their legs snapped clean off.
"Mop, Mop!" said the lure.
"Awwww," Splinter cooed his eyes shimmering.
"It's trying to kill us!" Tiger Claw groaned.
Krysta immediately rushed after them. She was finding her ice powers back up to full strength here and immediately used an ice ride to start going after the beast while Rocksteady and Bebop fought the Turtles and Shelldon, Mayhem and Klunk went after the two Foot Leaders with April still fighting Recruit.
As Krysta rose, she saw the center of the face there was a small pedestal in the nose of the Shedder's face where the chains began. Attached to them was an elegant looking Katana, with a ribbon of metal twisted around the handle. She could also see pink, green and red cracks in it as chips of it was breaking away. She gasped and went faster.
She saw the thing didn't like a blow Splinter did to it and immediately used this to catch up and land on the head above them. "Mop!" the creature said.
"Splinter! The Key is a sword! It's on the nose it's already breaking down!" she cried.
"We're running out of time!" Splinter gasped.
"Krysta quick look for a cute looking thing and stab it straight down!" Tiger Claw instructed as Krysta nodded and turned to the lure behind her.
"Does it have to be the cute part!?" Splinter whined.
"Yes, because that's where the brain is most vulnerable!" Tiger Claw snapped as Krysta used an ice lance to stab it making the creature shriek in pain and crash right in front of the seal as Tiger Claw immediately handed the Tag to Splinter as the Foot Leaders rushed over.
"Splinter Go!" Tiger Claw shouted. Splinter jumped up from floating rock to floating rock landing on the bottom of the seal and began running upwards. Bebop and Rocksteady were immediately on his tail as were the Foot Leaders, but Leo trapped them in a pair of Portals making them zip up and down as Raph and Mikey went after the Foot Mutants.
Bebop was chasing after Splinter and almost caught him until Mikey grabbed him again and threw him back. Rocksteady and Raph found themselves grappling and rolling across the seal as Splinter ran quickly up the side of the Shredder Star Rocksteady had thrown Raph into Mikey sending them flying off the seal as Leo and Krysta rushed after them, Donnie managed to get ahead glowing a bright purple as his markings lit up and he jumped into the air and summoned a Steam Roller and charged it at Bebop and Rocksteady.
"AND BEFORE YOU ASK! YES, THIS IS A JOJO REFERENCE!" Donnie shrieked maniacally. "AHAHAHAHHAHAHAAA!" he laughed, crashing it right into the two Mutants who were sent flying into the air.
However, Rocksteady had suddenly found himself right above the face and pushed himself off a rock and flew right past Splinter who was about to place the tag snatching it and being to fast for Splinter to react thanks to his Momentum.
"NOOO!" Splinter cried as Rocksteady ripped the tag in two and the seal broke at that moment.
Splinter was sent crashing into the ground as was everyone else as Rocksteady managed to make his way to the rest of the Foot Clan as Recruit kicked April back towards the others.
There was a small point of light where the sword once was being spat out was a black blob that suddenly took the shape of a woman who shrieked in agony before passing out and floating down towards them. She had a grey tunic with a green hood over her face, thick strands of black hair flowing out from under it. She was wearing clothes and boots that did nothing to match the current age with a green Sash around her waist.
"Yo, that Chick looks important!" Rocksteady gasped.
"Get her!" Bebop shouted as they began rushing towards her. However, Mayhem teleported up to the Woman and teleported her to Tiger Claw who caught her as Leo threw another portal at Bebop and Rocksteady sending them crashing into Rocks instead.
"We're too late!" Krysta cried in horror as everyone stared at the eyes on the Shredder's seal lighting up as pink and red cracks began to surge throughout the whole thing everyone stared in horror as Lieutenant laughed.
"At long last the Shredder is free, and we will have our revenge!" he cackled looking directly at the Hamato clan as Mikey fought the intense urge and fear as flash backs to his time in the Dark Armor flooded his mind, he growled shaking it off as got on desperate idea. Grabbing the Goku action figure in Tiger Claw's pocket he immediately began using his chains to sling shot himself up towards the face. Klunk zipping after him in her Drone form. She landed on Mikey's shoulder.
"Mikey!" She cried to him.
"Klunk, I need white out stat!" Mikey cried.
"Okay!" Klunk replied transforming into a small bottle that Mikey quickly unscrewed and painted over the symbol of King Kai that was on the Goku figure's back. She changed back just as Mikey used his Mystic Powers to quickly dry it.
"Now a marker!" Mikey said quickly.
"Got it!" Klunk said becoming a Sharpie that Mikey immediately wrote the symbols he saw on the tag earlier. He rushed up as fast as he could, the force getting worse as Klunk became a jet pack he used to get close right to where the sword had been.
Brute had caught up to them, but Klunk changed into a Character called Red thirteen spun like a wheel and knocked him away.
"SORRRY GOKUUUUU!" Mikey screamed as he jabbed the figure headfirst into the hole shoving it down deep immediately an orange glow surged up and began filling in the cracks and reinforcing the chains that had begun to break.
Mikey's vision was immediately filled with the Shredder in chains shrieking at him gnashing his teeth and roaring animalistically at him as he was blown back Klunk managed to grow wings and dove after him.
"MIIIKKEEEEYYYY!" she screamed rushing after him as Mikey in a surge of intense fear and PTSD retracted into his shell. However, both flew through one of Leo's portals as he caught them both.
"I've got you Mikey you're okay!" he said rubbing Mikey's back as his sniffled. "We won you did good." He muttered looking up as Raph grabbed them all and held them close. Tremors of rage began shaking the area, but the seal held firm.
The Foot Clan glared at them before disappearing into a Portal as rocks fell in their direction. Mayhem immediately followed Suit by teleporting them back to the entrance where they immediately jumped back through. Mikey came out of his shell.
As he did the way to the Twilight Realm closed back to a simple glimmer again this time brighter than before however the Woman had jumped out of Tiger Claws arms and stared in horror at it. She turned to them with a vicious glare with violet eyes not unlike Mikey's.
"YOU DAMNED FOOLS! DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'VE DONE!?" she screamed before holding her head and passing out falling to the ground. Mikey immediately rushed to her side and felt her forehead.
"She needs help we've gotta get home!" he shouted.
