Underneath Fang's palace, there was an area full of cells.
In one of those cells was Somwang, the leader of Jaw, who had been dismantled by the turtles and their friends, as well as Raya, Namaari, Sisu and the others.
Normally, any evil person would be very angry and with thoughts of revenge towards those responsible for their situation, but she wasn't like that.
In fact, despite the group she had formed to bring Fang to the top, she kept thinking about one thing.
Namaari.
When she met her, she was just a girl who was just beginning her training to be a member of Fang's army.
Despite being from different social positions, they always used to play and have fun whenever they could even with the Druun situation.
Although they were almost the same age, Somwang always acted like an older sister to Namaari, making sure she didn't get hurt or get into trouble.
In fact, they used to joke that they treated each other like sisters.
They had always been close.
Until that day.
The day Namaari decided to chase after Raya after she stole that map.
Since then, the whole business of Sisu's return and the joining of the Dragon Gem pieces happened.
When it was all over and Kumandra's restoration was announced, Somwang hoped that her 'sister' would return with her so that they could bring prosperity to Fang together.
However, that didn't happen, instead she was more focused on helping her mother and mainly Raya.
It was as if she was nothing to her now.
As if the moments they spent together had fallen by the wayside in her memory.
She began to think that if Kumandra hadn't been restored, none of it would have happened.
It was then that she formed Jaw, a group that aimed to make it understood that Fang didn't need to be part of a whole, but to be the one who dominated over that whole.
However, she didn't expect that, when she was defeated, Namaari would reach out to her.
Despite everything she did, Namaari still considered her as her sister and was willing to give her a chance.
She even offered to talk to her if she wanted to.
That was what was occupying her mind right now and frankly she didn't know what to do with them, but one thing was clear to her and that was that she wasn't going to be able to concentrate in a cell.
She was trained to be a warrior.
A warrior who wouldn't give up easily.
Suddenly, she heard the sound of footsteps and turned her gaze to the bars of her cell to see the cell guard with a plate of food.
"I bring you the food." said the guard bending down to set the plate in front of the cell.
The next instant, Somwang stood up and hurried to the bars.
Before the guard knew what was happening, Somwang grabbed him and sent him smashing his face into the bars, causing him to fall unconscious.
"I'm sorry, comrade. It's nothing personal." began Somwang grabbing the guard's keys and using them to unlock her cell. "But I have a lot to think about and I can't do that standing here." said Somwang before starting to walk down the hallway towards the exit. "You wait, Namaari. The next time we meet, things may be different."
In the mountainous area of Kumandra, the Kraang who had escaped the failed invasion were returning to their temporary base along with some surviving droids.
At the entrance to the cave, stood Rahzar and Fishface who were watching the Kraang returning badly injured.
"What happened?" asked Rahzar to a Kraang droid.
"Kraang was performing the mission to attack what is known as the human settlement, but Kraang had what is known as complications due to the appearance of those known as the turtles and their human allies." said the Kraang droid.
"So it's true, those meddling reptiles are here too." said Fishface.
Just then, a beep was heard from the communication device.
"Right on cue." said Rahzar positioning himself with his partner before a hologram of Shredder appeared, so the two evil mutants knelt before him.
"Report." said Shredder.
"As we were just informed by the Kraang, the turtles suddenly appeared during the attack on the human settlement and foiled everything." said Fishface.
"Is that true?" asked Shredder to the Kraang droid.
"Affirmative. In addition, those known as the turtles and their human allies were aided by those known as Karai and Splinter." said the Kraang droid.
"What?" asked Fishface.
"The foul rat and the traitorous girl are here too?" asked Rahzar.
Shredder clenched his fists in rage at the mention of his archenemy and his 'daughter'.
"Not only that. Kraang has been able to have visual evidence of another ally of the ones known as the turtles that wasn't what is known as human or mutant." said the Kraang droid.
"What do you mean?" asked Shredder.
In response, the Kraang droid displayed through a small device a holographic screen showing recordings of Sisu fighting the Kraang droids.
Needless to say, the two Foot mutants and their leader were completely shocked by that.
"Okay. Either I've been watching too much TV or that thing I'm seeing is…" began Fishface.
"A dragon." said Rahzar.
"What else do you know about that… dragon?" asked Shredder also surprised to see a dragon even if he didn't look like one.
"Unfortunately, Kraang doesn't possess any more information than Kraang has shown about what is known as a dragon." said the Kraang droid.
"Send scouts to various corners of that world. I want to know all about that dragon and if there are more like it." said Shredder.
"Roger that." said the Kraang droid before leaving to carry out his order.
"Hold on, boss. What about the turtles and the others?" asked Fishface.
"For the time being, you will do nothing. You will remain there until I say otherwise." said Shredder.
"Can we know why?" asked Rahzar.
"In the myths I have been reading during my younger years they alleged that dragons were possessors of great power. If the dragons of that world have such power, then I will be able to use it to destroy my enemies." said Shredder.
The two evil mutants smiled at their master's intentions.
Meanwhile, in Heart, things had returned to normal after the Kraang attack was stopped thanks to Raya, the turtles, Splinter and all their friends.
After that, the whole group went to the palace, where they met Chief Benja.
Raya was the one who was in charge of explaining to her father the situation regarding her new friends, telling him that they were from another world, the mutagen and the Kraang.
To the surprise of the NY group, Benja not only accepted them, but also thanked them for protecting the kingdom from the invaders.
Soon after, they all went to a room where the turtles and their friends were telling the two newcomers everything that has happened.
"Wait a minute, let me get this straight. A long time ago, this was a peaceful land where humans and dragons lived together in harmony until some monstrous beings called Druun appeared." said Karai.
"Yes." said Leo.
"But after the Druun were wiped out, due to the disappearance of the dragons and the distrust of the humans, the kingdom of Kumandra was divided into five separate kingdoms." said Splinter.
"That's what happened." said Donnie.
"However, a few years ago, the Druun returned and then she…" began Karai pointing to Raya. "She went in search of the last dragon and they, along with their friends, defeated the Druun and made Kumandra return to form."
"That's right." said April.
"And when you came to this world, the kingdom of Fang was in trouble because of a group that disagreed about Kumandra and by fighting all together, you managed to defeat them." said Karai.
"Exactly." said Raph.
"I must say I am impressed by what you have accomplished in the short time you have been on this world." said Splinter.
"We've only done what we know how to do." said Mikey.
"Which is kicking bad guys' asses." said Casey with a smile.
"Master Splinter, let me say it is a pleasure to finally meet you. Your children have told us so much about you." said Namaari.
"And from what we have seen, you are much better than we imagined." said Tong.
"I tell you. They were Argh, but you got Pam, Pam, Pam and then they got Ow." said Sisu gesturing for emphasis, much to the laughter of the others.
"I must say that in my many years, I never would have imagined that the day that I would be sitting with a dragon would come." said Splinter.
"Neither did I. In fact, I didn't expect you to be…" began Karai.
"Fabulous? Funny? Powerful?" asked Sisu.
"I was going to say like Mikey." said Karai.
"I'll take that as a compliment." said Sisu with a shrug.
"Well said, sis." said Mikey high-fiving her.
"So, are you really Leo and the others' sister?" asked Raya to Karai.
"Yeah, so what?" asked Karai.
"Nothing. I just didn't expect to meet you so soon, that's all." said Raya.
"I what I really didn't expect was to see two kids on the battlefield." said Karai pointing at Boun and Noi.
"Hey, I know how to fight too. Not to brag, but I managed to defeat a few of those guys." said Boun.
"Oh, what a great accomplishment." said Raph sarcastically, receiving a scowl from the boy.
"But you're right in that, despite their young age, they know how to fight. Especially these little ones here." said April patting the heads of Noi and ongis.
"True. I've watched them a bit and I can tell they have spirit and courage. If they keep training, they will become great warriors in the future." said Splinter.
Boun, Noi and the ongis smiled as they received compliments from the mutant rat.
"Ok. What you have done is heroic and all, but I think it's time to go home." said Karai.
"Oh, come on, Karai. Don't be a spoilsport." said Mikey.
"It's true that it's time to go home, but it's not like we know exactly how to do that either." said Donnie.
"Besides, this is a very interesting world and we haven't seen the half of it." said Casey.
"That's true. In fact, before all this happened, we had planned to visit the other kingdoms." said Raya.
"Mmm. Certainly, a little sightseeing doesn't sound like such a bad idea." said Splinter stroking his chin.
"Exactly. Even ninjas need a break now and then." said Sisu.
"Well, if there's no other option." said Karai with a shrug.
"Trust me, sister. You'll love this world." said Leo.
Everyone in the group smiled that Splinter and Karai were going to stay with them and make sure their stay in that world was to their liking.
Somwang had been walking for hours in the jungle, with no fixed direction, nothing but walking and being immersed in thoughts about the events that led her to this situation.
What should she do? Should she free her own and return to her main task? Should she go after the turtles and take revenge on them for meddling with her plans? Should she go to Namaari and talk to her? Would she want to do that even after she said she would?
Those and many questions roamed through her mind.
It was then that she felt something approaching her and pulled out her spear, which she retrieved during her escape, as she prepared to fight.
However, she was shocked when she saw two Kraang droids appear.
"Kraang doesn't recognize the human Kraang just encountered." said a Kraang droid.
"Kraang demands what is known as surrender or Kraang will shoot." said the other Kraang droid before he and the other drew their weapons.
"I don't know what the hell you are, but I don't have time for you." said Somwang.
The Kraang droids began shooting, taking her by surprise, but she managed to duck to the side to dodge the shots.
After that, she charged towards them and quickly split them in half with the blade of her spear.
Needless to say, she was surprised to see their bodies shooting sparks instead of blood.
"What the hell…?" asked Somwang before noticing an electrocution that made her scream slightly in pain before falling unconscious on the ground.
The cause of this was a Kraang droid that had positioned itself behind her with a taser in its hands.
Soon after, more Kraang droids appeared.
"Kraang suggests taking the human to Kraang's lair. Kraang believes that the human might have what is known as information about what are known as dragons." said the Kraang droid.
The other droids nodded before grabbing Somwang and taking her with them.
At the Kraang's temporary base, while the Kraang droids continued to work on their machinery, Rahzar and Fishface stood by waiting for the information gathered on the dragons.
"How long do you think it will take for them to return with information?" asked Fishface.
"Kraang stipulates that, given the distance between what is known as human settlements, Kraang cannot confirm what is known as Kraang's scouting time." said the Kraang droid.
"I just hope they come back with some information." said Rahzar.
That's when the Kraang droids arrived with their prisoner, something the two evil mutants noticed.
"What is the significance of this?" asked Fishface.
"Kraang was in the middle of what is known as scouting and intelligence gathering when Kraang found this human." said the Kraang droid.
"And why did you bring her here?" asked Rahzar with little annoyance.
"Kraang believes that the human might have what is known as information given that the human is native to the world Kraang is on." said the Kraang droid.
"Mmm. Good point." said Rahzar.
"Then we'll just have to wake her up." began Fishface approaching Somwang, who was laid out on the ground. "Hey, sleeping beauty. It's time to get up." said Fishface tapping Somwang's face a little, making her moan a little as she went about opening her eyes.
Unfortunately, the first thing she saw as soon as she opened her eyes was Fishface's smiling face.
"AAHH!" shouted Somwang quickly recoiling from shock.
"Good morning to you too." said Fishface.
"W-Who are you?" asked Somwang completely surprised to see a giant fish with metal legs and a wolf with bone claws.
"Sorry, miss, but we're the ones asking the questions here." began Rahzar before showing off his claws. "And for your sake, you'd better answer them all."
Somwang was petrified, unable to understand how she had ended up in that situation, but it was easy to understand that if she didn't do what they wanted, she would die.
Just then, a beep sounded from the communication device.
"Ah, looks like it's your lucky day. The boss is calling." said Fishface with a smile.
Boss? If they looked like that, she couldn't imagine what their boss would look like.
Rahzar and Fishface knelt down while a pair of Kraang droids grabbed Somwang so she was kneeling just as a hologram of Shredder appeared.
Even though he was a hologram and even though he looked human, seeing his gaze was enough for Somwang to understand that he was someone not to be underestimated, someone who could kill you at the slightest provocation, someone who was full of evil.
"Bradford, Xever, do you have any information?" asked Shredder.
"Sadly, no, but we have someone who might." said Rahzar pointing to Somwang.
"You. What is your name?" asked Shredder.
"My name is Somwang, from the kingdom of Fang." said Somwang knowing that the best she could do was answer his questions, as she wouldn't be able to fight the two evil mutants while unarmed.
"Well, Somwang of Fang, what can you tell me about this?" asked Shredder as a Kraang droid displayed a holographic screen showing Sisu fighting the Kraang droids.
"You mean Sisu?" asked Somwang.
"Sisu? Heh. Quite a name for a dragon." said Fishface.
"Tell me, are there more like her?" asked Shredder.
"Yes, many since they came back after 500 years, but out of all of them, Sisu is the most powerful." said Somwang.
"How so?" asked Rahzar.
"It is because of the Dragon Gem." said Somwang.
"The Dragon Gem?" asked Shredder.
"A magical object that dragons can create from their own magic. In the olden days it was considered to hold great power." said Somwang.
"I see." began Shredder thinking deeply about the information received. "Bradford, Xever."
"Yes, master?" asked the two evil mutants.
"I want you to go to where the turtles were seen and bring me that dragon. Everything else, ignore it." said Shredder.
"As you command, master Shredder." said Rahzar.
"What do we do with the prisoner?" asked Fishface pointing to Somwang.
"She is no longer of any use. Get rid of her." said Shredder.
A pair of Kraang droids approached her with their weapons at the ready.
Somwang's eyes widened in horror as he saw that her end was near.
"Wait!" shouted Somwang, drawing the attention of Shredder and his two subordinates. "I-I can still be useful."
"How?" asked Shredder.
"I have knowledge of the terrain you intend to attack, I can tell you its weak points and such." said Somwang.
Shredder narrowed his gaze on her as he analyzed her, something that made her nervous not knowing what his decision would be.
"Very well. You will provide them with as much information as possible about that place." began Shredder, causing Somwang to sigh slightly in relief. "However, if you try to trick them in any way…" began Shredder before extending his claws, making the girl more nervous. "I'll be sure to punish you personally." said Shredder before his hologram disappeared.
"Looks like you've been lucky, my dear, but rest assured it won't last forever." said Rahzar.
"That's right. The boss isn't one to be easily fooled. One wrong move and it'll be your last." said Fishface with a wicked grin.
"I know." said Somwang.
Even though she was helping them, at least she had bought herself more time to try to think of a way to escape this situation.
In the Foot's lair, Shredder was on his throne after that communication between worlds.
"Master, why do you want them to ignore the turtles, as well as Splinter and Karai?" asked Tiger Claw.
"Think about it, Tiger Claw. If I get that Sisu girl who is considered the most powerful of dragons, I will have her create a Dragon Gem for me and with her power, I can annihilate my enemies myself." said Shredder.
"Right." began Tiger Claw understanding his master's plan. "But what about Somwang? I don't think it would be wise to leave her."
"I know, but no matter what I do. The result… will be the same. Soon enough, I will have the power of the dragons and with it, I will make them all bow down to the Foot, to Shredder." said Shredder.
