Shortly after Donnie called them, they immediately called the others, including April and Casey, and met in Donnie's lab, with him sitting at a computer.
"Well, Donnie, tell us at once why you woke us all up." said Raph.
"You see, while I was sleeping, I remembered some of our spy cameras we installed in Shredder's lair." said Donnie.
"Spy cameras?" asked Boun in confusion.
"Think of it as a device that allows us to see from here what the camera can see." Explained April without giving too much technological detail.
"The thing is, I went through them until I found one that was showing something alarming." said Donnie.
"What's it about?" asked Leo.
"I don't know, they haven't started yet and that's why I called you all." said Donnie.
"So, Donatello, show us what's going on there." said Splinter.
"Yes, we need to know what the cube head will do with the Dragon Gem." said Casey.
Entering some commands into the computer, the screen began to show a live recording of Shredder's throne room, where they could see all the evil mutants, including Stockman.
In Shredder's lair, no one noticed that in one corner of the roof was a small cockroach with a built-in surveillance device that the group was using to spy on the meeting.
"We've been waiting for hours. When is he coming?" asked Fishface.
"Patience, Xever. The master gathered us here for a reason and we must wait for him for it." said Tiger Claw.
"Da. I can't wait for him to use his new power to crush those turtles." said Rocksteady.
"Although I hope he leaves some fun for us." said Bebop.
"For once, I agree with you." said Rahzar.
"Don't forget that I wazzzz the key to it all, zzzzo don't complain if the mazzzzter givezzzz me an award for zzzzuch an achievement." said Stockman arrogantly.
"Oh, yes, I can see the awards gala now." commented Fishface sarcastically.
Suddenly, the doors burst open and the evil mutants turned their heads to see Shredder, with the Dragon Gem implanted in his armor, entering the room and heading for the stairs.
Once he stood in front of his throne, he turned around, which caused all the evil mutants to kneel before him.
"How's the foot-bot production going?" asked Shredder.
"At the rate we're going we should have thousands in no time." said Tiger Claw.
"Good. I want everything ready." said Shredder.
"Ready for what?" asked Rocksteady.
"To attack Kumandra." said Shredder.
"This… and what do you want to attack that place for if you already have the Dragon Gem?" asked Bebop confused.
"If a dragon can create a Dragon Gem, then more dragons will create more Dragon Gems." said Shredder.
"Oh. Fazzzzcinating. I can already imagine being able to rezzzzearch all thozzzze gemzzzz. I could be the greatezzzzt zzzzcientizzzzt in the world. No. In all the worldzzzz!" exclaimed Stockman jubilantly.
"We will capture each and every one of them and use Stockman's brainworms to turn them into Foot soldiers. With them and at the same time the Dragon Gems they create for me, the Foot will become the most powerful organization in the world. No one will dare to stand against us ever again." said Shredder.
"Can you do that, Stockman?" asked Tiger Claw.
"I wazzzz able to retrieve zzzzome data, zzzzo I think I could have a batch in no time." said Stockman.
"Oh, and when shall we attack?" asked Fishface with a grin.
"Despite the fact that I'd like to be able to attack right away, I'm afraid I'll need a couple of days at most to get the hang of this new power, but once I do, I'll use it to take down Yoshi and his turtles." said Shredder.
"Master, one question. What will happen if we encounter Karai or that dragon?" asked Rahzar.
"If you find them, don't kill them. Make sure you capture them alive. Once Stockman creates his batch of brain worms, we'll have them become Foot soldiers as well. My daughter will never leave my side again." said Shredder.
"Da. And even if that took a long time, the fact that you've wiped out all their friends and family will leave them so broken they won't even want to get out of their beds." said Rocksteady.
"As long as I'm preparing, I want all preparations to be ready by the time we attack Kumandra and anyone who gets in our way will be wiped out." said Shredder.
In the turtles' lair, everyone had been watching the villains' meeting and needless to say, they were horrified by what they had heard.
Noi and the ongis trembled with fear at it.
"Oh, no." said Namaari holding her hands to her mouth.
"I knew he would do something bad with the gem I believe him, but this… Now I feel worse." said Sisu.
"What's done is done, Sisu. You can't change the past." said Splinter.
"But if you focus on the present. Shredder intends to attack your world." said Raph.
"And not only that. He wants to capture all the dragons." said Boun.
"With one Dragon Gem, he's powerful enough, but if he gets his hands on a bunch of them, he'll be unstoppable." said Leo.
"Not to mention if it's true what Stockman said, then he could add dragons to his troops." said April.
"Force dragons to fight for him. Just when I thought he couldn't get any more horrible, he goes and proves otherwise." said Tong.
"Unfortunately, that's just the way he is." said Karai.
"We have to go back to Kumandra and warn everyone!" said Raya.
"But how? We used that Kraang base to come to this world. How are we going to get back?" asked Casey.
"That's why it's no problem." began Donnie before checking a box before pulling something out. "Ta-Da!" expressed Donnie showing a very advanced small gun.
"What's that?" asked Mikey.
"After the Kraang invasion, I sensed that we might need something for emergencies. So I created a little portal device." said Donnie.
"You say that could get us back to our world?" asked Raya.
"Yes. When we used the Kraang portal to get back, I managed to find the coordinates of your world. I just have to input them and then I'll open a direct path to Kumandra." said Donnie.
"Then let's not waste any time. We have limited time now that we know that Shredder won't attack for a few days." said Splinter.
"We should use that time to prepare." said Leo.
Wasting no time, Donnie punched in a few commands before pointing his gun to the side.
The gun shot a beam that ended up forming a pink portal in the middle of the room.
"Next stop: Kumandra!" said Mikey before they all crossed the portal, which closed shortly after.
Once everyone crossed the portal, the first thing they saw was the beautiful scenery of the kingdom of Heart.
"Home sweet home." said Sisu happy to be back, as were the others.
"Quickly, we have to report the situation to Chief Benja." said Leo.
With a joint nod, they all quickly set off.
Benja was walking through the corridors, worried about his daughter.
After that attack by the Foot, he learned from the others that she had been kidnapped.
There was a moment when he thought about sending an entire army to storm the Foot's base and rescue his daughter, but Leo and the others assured him they would bring her back safe and sound.
He may not have known them as well as Raya did, but he could see in their look and their words that they could be trusted completely, so he decided to let them be the ones to save his daughter.
Despite that, he kept thinking about his daughter and the fact that she was in the hands of the leader of that group.
"BA!"
A familiar voice made his eyes widen from shock before he quickly turned around to see Raya and all of her friends running towards him.
"Raya!" shouted Benja before running to his daughter and sharing a mutual hug with her. "How glad I am that you're okay."
"I'm sorry I worried you, Ba." said Raya before father and daughter broke the embrace.
"Are you all right? Did that man do something to you?" asked Benja.
"No, ba. He hasn't done anything to me, thankfully, but this isn't the time to talk about them. I need you to gather the chiefs of the other kingdoms." said Raya.
"What?" asked Benja in confusion.
"And not only that. You need to inform them to prepare their armies and get them here quickly." said Leo.
"Wait, wait. What's going on? It looks as if a war is going to happen." said Benja.
"I'm afraid it is, ba. A war involving the fate of all of Kumandra." said Raya.
Despite not fully understanding what was going on, he knew his daughter and her new friends wouldn't lie about something like that, so, wasting no time, he went to send messages to all the kingdoms to call an emergency high meeting.
Hours had passed, hours in which the chiefs of the other kingdoms received Benja's message.
At first, they were confused when they read to bring their armies for a simple meeting as well, but, after what happened with the Druun, they knew they had to trust each other, so they immediately prepared their troops and set off for Heart.
By the time all the armies arrived at Heart, the chiefs gathered in a room together with the NY group and Kumandra's group.
Needless to say, the chiefs who didn't know the mutants were a bit surprised, but Benja and Virana told them that they were trustworthy, so they accepted it.
When they asked about the reason for the meeting, the group began to tell them the whole story.
About coming from another world, about the mutagen, the rivalry between the Hamato clan and the Foot clan, Shredder, the Dragon Gem he had obtained and, above all, his next plan.
Everyone was in shock at what they had heard, not because of the mutant thing or anything like that, but because of what this man was going to do.
"I don't understand." began the new chief of Tail. "Are you saying that man has declared war on all of us?"
"It's more than a war. It's a hunt and he will destroy anything that gets in his way, be it civilians or cities, to get what he wants." said Karai.
"How can someone like him exist? He is worse than a monster." said the head of Spine.
"His anger and his hatred are his fuel and drive him to do what he wants regardless of the consequences." said Splinter.
"Is there any chance we can talk him out of attacking us?" asked the chief of Talon.
"Not unless you want to hand them all the dragons on a silver platter." said Raph.
"And I doubt very much that, after that, he'll leave you alone." said Casey.
"Chiefs of Kumandra. I know it can be very dangerous, but if Shredder gets hold of the dragons, he will have unlimited power and use it to enslave both our world and theirs." said Raya.
"That is why we have gathered you together. We need the strength of all the kingdoms to defeat this enemy, but only if you are willing to cooperate." said Namaari.
The chiefs looked at each other, with those of Tail, Spine and Talon debating on what to do.
"Fang will support them." began Virana standing up. "You saved my life, as well as my daughter's and her friend's, so this is my way of returning the favor."
"Heart will also join. I won't allow that man to destroy everything we have worked so hard to create." said Benja standing up.
The other chiefs looked at each other one more time before making a decision.
"Spine did not back down from the Druun and won't back down from that enemy." said the chief of Spine standing up.
"While I am not one to use violence, you can count on Talon for this confrontation." said the chief of Talon.
"And with Tail as well. We'll show those of the Foot that Kumandra's aren't to be underestimated." said the chief of Tail.
Everyone in the group smiled to see that they had gained the support of all the kingdoms.
"Thank you very much, chiefs of Kumandra." said Splinter bowing in thanks.
After that, preparations for the coming war began.
During the time they had left, the turtles and their friends were giving the soldiers of all the armies a short course on the enemies they were going to face, such as the foot-bots and the evil mutants.
They strongly explained not to face Shredder on their own, as he was the most powerful of them all and even more so that he had a Dragon Gem.
Benja made sure that the civilians were taken to the closest kingdom of Fang to be safe and away from the conflict.
Back on the other world, in an abandoned warehouse run by the Kraang, were all the Foot mutants along with several foot-bots, all lined up in front of a portal device manned by the Kraang.
"The coordinates of what is known as the world where Kraang traveled before are what is known as ready." said a Kraang droid.
"Kraang can initiate what is known as a portal device when those who are known to be Kraang's allies command it." said another Kraang droid.
"No. We will wait for Master Shredder to arrive and give us the order." said Tiger Claw.
"You know? I remember in my youth, I used to spend my nights in the forests of Russia hunting wolves and bears. The thought of hunting dragons makes me feel young again!" said Rocksteady before snorting a little.
"Remember we're supposed to capture them, not kill them." said Fishface.
"Though I hope he'll let us kill one or two. Suddenly, I'm in the mood for a dragon head as a trophy." said Rahzar with a wicked grin.
"Heck, now I'm interested in having a dragon skin cape. I'm sure it would look divine on me." said Bebop.
"While I like the idea of zzzztudying Dragon Gemzzzz, I'm alzzzzo interezzzzted in being able to zzzztudy a dragon, both living and dead and find out where itzzzz powerzzzz come from." said Stockman.
"You can do that when I let you do it, Stockman."
All the evil mutants turned their heads to see Shredder enter the place.
"Are you ready yet, Master Shredder?" asked Tiger Claw.
"You underestimate me, Tiger Claw. My will and strength have allowed me to master the power of the Dragon Gem and now it is mine." said Shredder raising his hand to his face level and clenching it into a fist.
"Of course. My apologies, master." said Tiger Claw.
"Is everything ready?" asked Shredder.
"All ready to go, master." said Rahzar.
"Right." began Shredder before turning his gaze to the Kraang droid in charge of the device. "Open the portal."
"Understood." said the Kraang droid before entering a few commands, causing a huge pink portal to open.
"Master, let me tell you that it is possible that the turtles and all their friends are on Kumandra and have prepared everything for our arrival." said Tiger Claw.
"Let them do it if they want to. No matter how prepared they are, they will eventually fall to my new power." said Shredder before advancing towards the portal, with the others following him.
Once the last foot-bot passed through the portal, it quickly closed.
Meanwhile, in Heart, Sisu was at the top of the mountain, looking at the vast landscape around, with birds flying overhead.
Even though she was looking at a beautiful landscape, Sisu felt very bad.
That whole place, a whole world where good people lived was about to be attacked by Shredder and all because he got a Dragon Gem.
A Dragon Gem she had created.
Despite the others telling her it wasn't her fault, it WAS her fault after all.
She may have done it to try and save Raya and Namaari, but if she had waited a bit, maybe the turtles would have rescued them and she wouldn't have doomed two worlds.
"Sisu!"
The dragoness startled a little before turning her head to the side to see Raya on Leo's back as they made their way up the mountain to stand beside her.
"Good thing we found you." said Raya getting off Leo.
"We've been looking all over for you." said Leo.
"Sorry guys, I just wanted to take in the view for a bit." said Sisu before turning her gaze to the horizon, as did the others.
"It really is beautiful." said Leo.
"So is Kumandra." said Raya.
"Yes and everything will be spoiled because of me." said Sisu lowering her head.
"Sisu, Master Splinter already told you. It wasn't your fault. Anyone would have done the same." said Leo.
"Yes, but I did it. Do you think I didn't notice how the other chiefs looked at me when you told about Shredder getting the Dragon Gem? It was obvious they knew it was my doing. Now it's not just the other dragons that are in danger. All of Kumandra and possibly your world is in danger and all because of me." said Sisu.
"Sisu, look at me." said Raya.
Sisu turned her head toward her and Raya placed her hands on the sides of her face so that she was staring at her.
"Listen to me. I would NEVER blame you for what you have done. It is just as Leo and Master Splinter say. Had I been in your place, I would have done the same or even more. You did it to save me and Namaari and I know she feels the same way about this. After all, she was the one who condemned Kumandra twice." said Raya with a smile.
"And don't forget Karai. She may have tried to kill us a couple of times while under Shredder's control or not, but we never blamed her for it. We just accepted her into our family with mistakes and all." said Leo.
"So don't try to hurt yourself thinking that everyone would hate you or disown you for what you did and if at some point that happens, I will always be with you as well as everyone else." said Raya with a smile.
"Because that's what friends are for." said Leo with a smile.
Sisu felt very flattered by her friends' words, she even felt like she might cry.
In the end, what she did was to pull them both into a hug.
"You are definitely the best." said Sisu with a smile.
Leo and Raya smiled at each other before returning the hug to their dragon friend.
At the Kraang base in the mountains, a portal was opened through which Shredder and his entire army exited.
Shredder and his mutant minions stood in front of the cave entrance, where they had views of the landscape outside.
"Quite a view." said Rahzar.
"Da. And I'm looking forward to destroying them." said Rocksteady.
"Surely they're ready for us by now." said Tiger Claw.
"Then let's send them a message about our arrival." said Shredder raising his hand to the sky.
The Dragon Gem on his chest glowed briefly before the bluish sky began to fill with clouds until the sun's rays were blocked completely.
Soon after, a clap of thunder sounded before it began to rain.
"A fine dizzzzplay of your new power, mazzzzter." said Stockman.
"Good rain knows the best time to fall." said Fishface.
"Wow, man. That's very poetic. Where did you get that?" asked Bebop.
"From a television series. I recommend you watch it. It's pretty entertaining." said Fishface.
"Enough of this nonsense. Let's go now." said Shredder before he and his troops set off.
At Heart, the group stood on a balcony watching the rainy weather.
"Something tells me this isn't your typical fall rain." said Donnie.
"No. It's the work of magic. Dragon magic." said Sisu.
"That means Shredder must have arrived and is on his way." said Splinter.
"Well when they arrive, we'll be ready." said Tong with his axe.
"We won't let him get away with it." said Boun with his karambit knives.
Noi let out a squeal before April pulled her into her arms.
"Did I tell you you're the bravest baby I've ever met?" asked April with a smile receiving a squeal of delight from the baby.
"We need to warn the others and quickly." said Leo.
Without hesitation, they all ran off to alert the others of the enemy's arrival.
In a short time, everyone was ready for the arrival of the enemy, each army of each kingdom was placed side by side.
In front of each army was their respective leader and in front of them was the group of heroes.
Meanwhile, on the outskirts of the kingdom, Shredder and his army arrived on the scene.
"So this is Heart's kingdom, is it?" asked Shredder.
"It is, master." said Tiger Claw.
"Good. This kingdom will be the first to fall in my conquest of this world and mine." began Shredder. "Attack!" shouted Shredder as hundreds of foot-bots rushed into battle before the evil mutants joined them as Shredder began to walk slowly.
That was seen by a sentry through a spyglass and he blew a horn in alarm.
"That's the signal. Prepare for battle!" exclaimed Leo.
Hearing that, everyone quickly drew their weapons and prepared for battle.
"For Kumandra!" shouted Benja.
"For Kumandra!" shouted the other chiefs.
"For Kumandra!" shouted the others.
"Here we go!" exclaimed Mikey.
"Yes!" exclaimed Sisu.
"Booyakasha!" shouted the two in unison as the two of them and everyone else launched into battle.
AN: Well, folks, we've reached the final battle, right? Where the heroes will defeat the bad guys and everyone will be happy, right?
