At Shredder's Lair, Karai was kneeling before a projection of Shredder as he glared down at the girl, "So Karai, not only did disobey my orders not to make any moves against the turtles and failed miserably to destroy them," He started sounding very angry, "But now I learn that you allowed their number to increase!"
"It was those stupid Footbots, they couldn't keep up with the turtles, and I tried to tell you about Venus and her siblings before you left!" Karai tried to explained before looking up, "But one good thing, the Kraang have been upgrade the Footbots and they say they know where the new turtles come from-"
"Hear me, Karai," Shredder cut her off, "We will have no more dealings with the Kraang or the Turtles until I return." He told her firmly.
Karai bowed her head, "Understood father," She answered.
"Still, from what you described it seems these six new turtles are trained in the ancient ways of the Hamato Clan," Shredder said in thought, "Wait for my command before returning with any more information and do not defy me again. The consequences would be…unfortunate." He warned.
Karai clenched her fist as the transmission ended.
Karai then walked into a Kraang lab with two Footbots where Kraang were building legions and legions of Footbots before they brought forth a large footbot, dressed in armor similar to Bradford's before his mutation, that was currently charging, "Not bad," Karai complimented, looking impressed, "How soon until it's online?"
"By Kraang's calculations: Nine Earth Hour Units," a Kraang droid answered.
Karai was surprised and turned to the Droid, "Nine hours? I wanna test it on someone now! And I got the perfect Target: April O'Neil." She said as the Kraang stopped their work and looked at her, "Is that a problem?" She questioned.
The Kraang droid processed for a moment before answering, "Kraang sees no…foreseeable problem, one called Karai." It answered.
"Good, now let's speed up the process, you don't wanna keep the Shredder waiting, do you?" Karai said while looking at the Footbot, "On another note, did you find that information I asked about Venus De Milo and her siblings?"
A Kraang on a Floater then flew up to her with a pink screen, "The new members of the ones called the Turtles hail from an unknown landmass located several earthmiles from the country known as Japan and is colonized by other terrapin mutations," It explained as it showed a map around the ocean surrounding Japan, "Unfortunately, further information to the location of the ones known the Turtles' landmass was eliminated when the ones known as the Turtles escaped from Kraang secret lab," It added.
Karai gave the map a thoughtful look, "So, there's an entire island of Mutant Turtles," She said before smirking, "Keep digging, the Shredder will definitely love to hear about this 'Lost Turtle Island'," She said.
In the city, April was walking home as two figures followed after her on the rooftops. April stopped and looked up, getting the feeling she was being followed, when she saw nothing she moved on down an alley.
The two figures then leapt down and hid behind some trash as April stopped and whipped around with her fan out, "I know you're following me, come out so I can see you." She told her stalkers before she threw her tessen at the trash pile and knocked a certain purple turtle out of hiding.
"Donnie!" Tal said as she jumped out and checked on him.
"Donnie? Talenal?" April said in surprise.
Donnie flipped over to his side with a smile, "Funny, the three of us all passing through this shady back alley at the same exact time, huh?" He said while picking up April's fan.
"Yeah, hilarious," Tal said sarcastically as they walked over to April as she crossed her arms and looked away, "How've you been, O'Neil?" She asked bluntly.
"Oh just fine, thank you Talena," April said as she took her tessen back from Donnie as they glared at each other.
Donnie looked between the girls in confusion, seeing the tension between them, "You two know each other?" He asked.
"You could say that," April answered simply, "Especially considering she decided to show up on a girl's porch while she's dealing with a father who turned into a homicidal mutant bat!" She said to Donnie in particular.
Tal groaned in frustration and glared at April, "April how many times do I have to tell you it was an accident!?" She said while getting in the girl's face, "How long are you gonna hold this stupid grudge?" She asked as April growled in frustration at her.
Donnie quickly got between the girls, "April, it wasn't completely our fault," He tried to reason with the human girl, "And I'm sorry-"
"Not as sorry as I am Donnie!" April cut him off, "I want to be left alone with a normal life Donnie. With no talking mutants or alien robots after me! I never want to see you or the others again!" She said firmly before walking away.
Tal growled and was about to grab her bow but Donnie stopped her before looking to April, "April," He started as April glanced at him, "Somethings are just beyond our control," He said.
"And no one can be blamed for those kinds of things," Tal said as April was stirred by this before she shook it off and kept walking. Tal sighed and walked the other way, "Come on Donnie, let's head back to the Lair," She said before opening a manhole cover and headed down.
Donnie looked at April one last time before he sighed and followed after Tal.
Down in the Lair, the Turtles were watching SRMFF as Mikey came over with some popcorn and sat down with Ames. Ames grabbed some popcorn and tossed it over her mouth but it never entered.
Ames was confused and looked to see Jenny munching before she tried again only for her not to catch the popcorn and saw Jenny chewing again. Realizing what was going on, Ames pretended to throw some popcorn up and as Jenny reached to grab it, Ames bit down on her arm.
"OW!" Jenny yelled in pain and growled at Ames as she yelped and hid behind Mikey as Raph laughed a bit.
Naomi sighed and shook her head before turning to see Donnie and Tal walking in, the former looking crestfallen and the latter looking annoyed, "And where have you two been?" She asked.
"Nowhere," Tal answered simply as they watched the show as SRMF destroyed an alien but the princess left the team because the others forgot her birthday much to the scientist's despair.
"Whoa dude, the show like totally paradoxes your life," Mikey commented to Donnie, "Kinda owie in the carazon, that means heart," He added.
"Mikey it's 'parallels', Okay?" Donnie corrected with a look, "And it does not. It's just a cartoon!" He said firmly.
"Besides, the princess has quit the team 27 times already," Vee reminded them, "She always comes back,"
"Yeah but let's face it, April's gone for good," Raph said solemnly, "We'll probably never see her again,"
Donnie looked crushed as he sighed and walked away, "I'll be in my lab," He said before closing the lab door.
Olly looked at him in sympathy before turning to others, "Guys, we gotta stop being so negative about April staying away, it's really hurting Donnie," He told them.
"Olly's right guys, we have to have faith that April will come back," Leo encouraged.
Tal however scoffed, "Well personally, I hope she doesn't," She said, surprising the others, "The way she always holds what happened to her dad over Donnie's head, cutting ties for a total accident. That redhead's not my definition of a friend for Donnie or any turtle," She said while crossing her arms.
Raph smirked at Tal, "Huh, me thinks some turtle's jealous of Ms. O'Neil," He commented to the others.
Tal's eyes widened and turned to them, "Me?! Haha, I-I'm not Jealous!" She said while giving a forced grin, "Why would I be jealous of some human girl?" She questioned.
"Maybe because she's always on Donnie's big brain and you want you all in Donnie's brain," Mikey teased.
Tal sputtered, trying to come up with a rebuttal, much to the others' amusement. Luckily she was saved when Donnie rushed out with the Kraang orb, "Guys, we got trouble!" He told them.
The turtles rode across the city in the Shellraiser as Donnie read what he translated from the Kraang communication orb, "From what I can translate from the orb, it seems the Kraang are building some kind of advanced heavy weaponry," He explained.
"Great, as if those copycat Footbots weren't enough," Vee complained, "What could it be?" She wondered.
Mikey raised his hand, "Ooh! Lasers disguised as burritos!" He declared, "Yes it all makes sense now!"
"It does make sense," Jenny said before walking up to Mikey, "If you've got the brain of an avocado!" Mikey glared and tried to poke her only for her to slap his hand down and poke his forehead herself before walking away as Mikey shook his fist with flames in his eyes.
"Okay guys stay focused," Olly told them, "We find the weapon and we destroy it," He stated.
"And then we get Mexican, pizza," Leo added with a smile as he drove on.
Meanwhile, April was walking towards the Ice rink before she heard the sound of a motorcycle and turned to see a pink motorbike rolling over to her with a girl in pink jacket, jean skirt, black leggings, and helmet riding on it, "Excuse me, Ms. O'Neil, but I don't think you have permission to be out at this hour," The girl said as she took off her helmet, revealing herself to have a face similar to April's but with blonde hair down with a blue hair clip on the right side.
April beamed, "Robyn!" She cheered as the two hugged each other, "I didn't know you were back in New York!" She said as they broke away.
"Just got back last night, thought I'd surprise you," Robyn explained, "Hope you don't mind me crashing with you,"
"Robyn, you're my sister," April said as the two held hands, "You know you're always welcome here." She said before gesturing for her to follow, "Come on, you gotta meet my new friend, Casey Jones,"
"Right behind you," Robyn said as she parked her bike, "So, how have you been since dad…you know?" She trailed off, clearly knowing about what happened.
April looked down sadly, "It's been rough but, I'm getting by," She said as they walked into the rink.
On the ice, Casey was currently scoring points, smacking the pucks into the goals before he noticed the O'Neil girls, "Red? And who's the blonde?" He asked, gesturing to Robyn.
"Casey Jones, this is Robyn, my older sister," April introduced, "Robyn this is Casey, a kid I'm tutoring at school,"
"Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Jones," Robyn waved.
"Ah, Mr. Jones is my dad, call me Casey," Casey told her before turning to April, "So what's up, I didn't miss another study session did I?" He asked.
"No, I'm just here to hang out," April told him.
Casey gave a grin, "With the infamous Casey Jones and your big sis?" He asked while skating around.
"Unless you like me only for my trigonometry," April teased back.
Robyn smirked, "Ooh, looks like my little sister grew some claws while I was away," She commented as the three laughed.
Casey then skated up to them. "So what's your deal, Red? Never seen you hangout with anybody. Antisocial?" He asked.
"Not really. I… I had four really close friends." April said sadly. "But some bad stuff happened, I don't talk to them anymore and they found some new friends."
Robyn looked at her in sympathy, knowing what happened, while Casey nodded in understanding, "It happens," He said as he placed his puck down, "Me and my best friend Keno, were up against Tromatown in last year's playoffs," He said before shooting the puck, "He came up behind just as I was about to sink the winning goal and WHAM! Smacked his helmet straight off. Swollen face, split lip." He recounted while looking down in guilt, "My best friend since 2nd grade, never spoke to me again."
The girls looked at Casey in sympathy, "But, it's not like you did it on purpose," April told Casey.
"Yeah, some stuff is just beyond our control," Casey said.
"And no one can be blamed for those kinds of things," Robyn added as April looked away, hearing those words before.
Casey then stepped off the ice, "Give me sec to grab my gear, and we'll get something to eat," He told the girls, "Pizza?" He suggested.
"Sounds good to me, how about it April?" Robyn asked before turning to see April looking down sadly, "April?" She repeated.
April then brought up her T-Phone with Donnie's contact picture on it, "Donnie." she said sadly as Robyn looked at the pictures and sighed.
"You know that it was an accident, right, sis?" Robyn asked with a concerned look. "I mean, sure, it stings what happened to dad, but things were already going crazy with those aliens or so…They couldn't have known that could happen."
April sighed and looked at her sister, "You think I'm a jerk, don't you?" She asked.
"You're words, not mine," Robyn joked as she smiled encouragingly, "Holding a grudge can be more dangerous than what caused it in the first place."
"Yeah, I know someone who can speak from experience." April said in thought, remembering how a grudge turned the Shredder into a completely different man, But before they could think anything further, an explosion went off as the two girls covered themselves from the blast as the dust cleared and saw two Footbots in front of them as their eyes glowed.
"Who are these guys?" Robyn asked in surprise.
"Foot Soldiers?" April asked in shock at this as the footbots started attacking the two girls as they did their best to avoid the strikes. The footbots then stopped as two extra limbs with a large blade and a mace popped from their backs. "Didn't you guys used to be human?" She asked fearfully.
Robyn jumped in front of April in a defensive stance, "Stay behind me, Sis!" She said before she started attacking the footbots, knocking them back, "2 years of self defense class pays off," She said before the robots got back and she backed away.
The two sisters then jumped onto the ice and slid back as the Footbots followed, losing balance for a moment before regaining it again, "Are these guys from that Foot Clan you told me about?" Robyn asked her sister.
"Yeah, but since we did Shredder have robots?" April asked as the robots closed in on them.
"Yo! If there's one thing Casey Jones has!" The robots turned and saw Casey smirking at them, "It's crackerjack timing," He said.
"Casey, what are you doing? Run!" April told her friend as the robots turned to him.
"What and let you have all the fun?" Casey said as he jumped onto the ice and took out the robots with two pucks, "I got 'em, you girls run!" He told the girls as the robots got back up.
"No, I got 'em! You guys go!" April shot back as she punched one Footbot but was knocked down by another.
"You think I'm sitting this one out!?" Robyn called as she grabbed a lone hockey stick and twirl it around as she whacked them aside.
"Cross checking! Two minutes!" Casey quipped as he skated around and whacked the bots down. "High sticking! It ain't a penalty if they deserve it, right?" He joked as a rootbot swiped his arm and knocked him down as April threw a blade and hit it's head, shutting it down.
"Nice throw, April." Robyn commented with a smile.
"You should see me play ping-pong," April commented.
Casey then went up to her, "So do we these guys, money or something?" He asked before more Footbots showed up.
"Or something," April said before turning to her sister and friend, "Robyn, Casey, just go. I didn't want to get you into this," She said, mentally kicking herself for not remembering that the Foot saw her as a target too.
"Are you kidding me? Do you know what this is?" Casey asked with a smirk. "This is Casey Jones versus evil robo ninjas! Coolest freaking thing in the universe! Goongala!" He called as he then started fighting the Footbots.
"Is he serious?" Robyn asked with a brow.
"You don't know the half of it," April said as she looked at Casey, "I need to get out of here."
"Leave it to me." Robyn said as she grabbed April and they slid under the Footbots, "Hey bucket heads, you want some O'Neil come and get some!" she called as she and April ran out of the ice rink.
"Go girls, go!" Casey called as more Footbots showed up, "Good, now it's a fair fight. Eat this!" He called as he continued fighting.
April and Robyn made to Robyn's motorcycle as the latter hopped on, "Climb on!" Robyn told herself as April duck under some Kunai daggers and sat behind Robyn, "Hang on. Pedal to the metal!" She said before revving the engine and driving off as the Footbots followed after them.
On the Rooftops, Karai was watching them from a water tower with a smirk, "They're traveling north, move!" She ordered her Footbots.
With the turtles, they were staking out a building guarded by three Kraang droids, "There's our entry point," Leo pointed to the open window. "We just need a distraction."
"Dudes, I got the best plan!" Mikey said before bending a billboard lamp down.
"Why do I feel slightly nauseated?" Raph asked dully.
Mikey then put his hands in front of the lamp, "Check it out, I've been practicing," Mikey said.
The Kraang droids looked behind them and saw the shadow of a rabbit on the window, "Kraang, creatures known as…rabbits have infiltrated Kraang's lab," One droid told the other two.
The shadow then turned to the shape of an elephant, "No Kraang, clearly a small but obese pachyderm has breached Kraang security," the second droid corrected before the shadow changed again to a woman dancing.
"Kraang are both wrong. It is a belly dancer wearing what is known as a flamenco dress." The third droid said before they turned and saw the Turtles jumping down and took the out in one go as Mikey jumped down last.
"Wow, Mikey! You've got mad shadow puppetry skills!" Ames said in amazement.
"Like a turtle do!" Mikey said as they then climbed through the window and into a hightech tunnel through the ventilation and into the room and saw a storage area.
And they saw an advanced droid that is dressed like Bradford's old human self with his suit on. "I'm guessing we just found the secret weapon." Donnie whispered.
"Alright, Donnie, we need to shut that thing down." Tal whispered.
"No problem." Donnie said as he stood up, but then he felt his T-Phone vibrating as the others all looked shocked by that.
"Dude, you're vibrating." Mikey whispered as Donnie took out his T-Phone saw that April is calling.
"It's April." Donnie said as he cleared his throat and answered, "Hello, this is uh Donay Diner Dono Dano Dinomi?" He stammered.
Tal sighed and took the phone and put to her ear, "What do you want O'Neil?" She asked.
"Tal, remember how you and Donnie said sometimes things are out of control and I was holding a stupid grudge?!" April asked frantically. "You were right! Things are really out of control right now!" She called as she ducked a throwing star from the footbot while Robyn kept driving off.
"Oh, I'm sorry, could you repeat that? I don't think I heard you," Tal said tauntingly as the Footbots continued chasing after the two sisters.
"Tal, you can gloat later, right now, I need backup!" April told her as Robyn started zigzagging, trying to shake the Footbots off.
"What happened to 'I want a normal life with no mutants or alien robots'?" Tal asked her.
"Tal! I'm serious! The Foot are chasing me and my sister! I need help! Please!" April pleaded.
Tal's eyes widened when April said that. "The Foot are after April and her sister." She told the others.
"Sister?" Leo, Raph, Mikey and Donnie said in surprise.
"I didn't know April had a sister," Raph commented.
"We'll talk about it later. We gotta go!" Donnie said as he took his T-Phone back. "Hang on, April, I'll be right there!"
"Not without me you're not!" Tal said as she and Donnie ran off.
"Donnie, Tal, we need your help!" Olly pointed out.
The two smart turtles were already gone when he finished, "Did they just ditch us?" Jenny asked before the alarm went off.
:ALERTING ONE KNOWN AS INTRUDER!:
The turtles then turned to the Kraang who started blasted at them, "Aw sewerapples!" Vee cursed.
"Turtles, attack!" Leo ordered as they charged at the Kraang.
With April and Robyn, they kept riding as they made to the park before a Footbot threw a ninja star at one of the bike's tires, causing it to pop, "Whoa!" The sister yelled as they were sent flying and were surrounded by footbots.
"Okay, you wanna fight!" April asked as she brought out her fan while Robyn raised her fists but then two Footbots restrained them.
Two more were about to grab them before they were pierced and slashed by Donnie and Tal. "Donnie! Tal!" April cheered while Robyn looked at them in amazement.
"So these are the Turtles?" Robyn asked in surprised as Donnie and Tal skillfully took out the Footbots with their skills and freed the two O'Neils from them. "Okay, they are better than what you told me, sis."
"Pleasure to meet you, Donnatello," Donnie said holding out his hand.
"Robyn," Robyn replied, shaking Donnie's hand.
"Took you guys long enough." April said as she picked up her fan.
"Sorry. We had to figure out your coordinates with the T-Phone since you turned it off the first time." Tal pointed out with a brow, "So, finally got over the whole 'Dad' thing?" She questioned.
"Well…" April tried to say before Donnie blocked a throwing star that was about to hit her as the four turned and saw Karai walking towards them.
"Karai!" Donnie and Tal called as some more Footbots jumped down.
"Well, I was hoping for all the turtles to see this." Karai said as she twirled her spear. "But I guess two's good enough. You're rat master took away someone I cared about. So I'm returning the favor." She said as she readied her weapon as the two turtles did the same.
"Uh, High school bully of yours April?" Robyn asked her sister.
"No, much worse," April answered as Tal and Donnie charged at Karai.
Back with the other Turtles they had just finished taking out the Kraang and turned to the super Footbot, "Whoa, that thing is awesome!" Mikey declared before quickly adding, "In an evil kind of way,"
The robot's eyes turned on revealing a pink glow, the wires detached from it and it towered over it, "Um guys.. giant freaky robot ninja just finished charging!" Olly said in fear.
"You don't look so tough!" Ames said casually, she charged at the Footbot, but it took out a plasma whip o and whacked Ames to the ground.
"Ames!" Mikey and Jenny cried in worry as the Footbot's eyes lit up and fired lasers at them.
"It shoots lasers too!?" Raph yelled in panic.
"This one clearly is an elite class of Footbot!" Naomi said in fear as they dodged some more laser fire. The Elite Footbot took out an energy sword and the turtles engaged it.
They tried their best skills, but the Elite Footbot was too strong and was tearing through them like rice paper. It wrapped its plasma whip around Leo and Vee and brought them down, "Hey! Let go!" Leo demanded as the Elite Footbot's eyes glowed ready to fire.
But then it stopped, "Subroutine program taken over. Target April O'Neil located." The Elite Footbot said before releasing Leo and April and took off from the warehouse.
"That thing is going after your friend!" Jenny exclaimed.
"Come on!" Olly called as they all rushed out of the room as Mikey picked up a blaster that was on the floor.
"Too awesome!" He called before he accidentally fired, which nearly hit the others as they turned and glared at him.
"Mikey!" Vee exclaimed with a look. "Seriously?!"
Mikey looked at the blaster and tossed it away as he gave a sheepish look.
Back at the park, the two turtles are still facing Karai and her footbots while guarding April and Robyn. "Stay away from the O'Neills!" Donnie warned Karai.
"Footbots, keep the turtles busy," Karai ordered as the robots started attacking Donnie and Tal while she went up to April and Robyn, "This is between us girls." She told them.
"Fine by me, Punk Girl," Robyn said without fear. April was then tripped down as April threw her fan at her.
"You're skills are weak, April. I had years of trainin-" Karai was cut off when Robyn gave a roundhouse kick to her jaw and April's fan cut her on the back of her head which the young O'Neil caught.
"You talk too much," the two girls taunted.
Karai glared before she started swinging her weapon at them, which they blocked, but April lost her balance and fell to the floor as Robyn turned and saw a sword dropped from a Footbot as Karai swung around and was about to strike her before Robyn blocked the strike.
"You're not gonna touch my sister!" Robyn stated as she knocked Karai's spear away and delivered multiple punches on her before she kicked her in the gut as she fell to the floor.
Karai then found Robyn pointing a sword at her face, "Had enough yet?" Robyn asked.
But just then, the robot from the warehouse came flying in as he landed on the ground as Karai gave a smirk. "Um, guys, I'm thinking of retreating." April said nervously as Karai kicked Robyn's sword and flipped over to the robot.
"Like my new toy? Robot, eliminate the red haired girl." Karai ordered as the robot turned to April.
"Bring it on!" Tal called as she and Donnie charged at the robot, but it easily smacked them away as they were sent flying and smacked Robyn away as it used it's whip and caught April as it glared at her.
"Let me go!" April called as the robot then beep.
"System override, Do not destroy April O'Neil." It said as its eyes stopped glowing, "Capture for the Kraang."
"What?!" Karai asked in shock as the robot took off with April until Karai sweeped at its legs, which caused it to fall and drop April as the robot turned to Karai.
"Threat detected. Eliminate threat." it said as Karai's eyes widened from that.
Robyn rushed up to April and helped her up. "You okay, sis?" She asked
"For once, I'm actually glad the Kraang wants to kidnap me." April joked, glad that the Kraang wanted her alive then dead.
On the road, the Shellraiser is driving at high speeds. "Left, Leo! I'm getting a signal!" Raph called as Leo turned to a direction.
Back at the playground, Karai is still fighting the robot as she was knocked down while Tal and Donnie readied their weapons, but then the Shellraiser came speeding up and knocked the robot to the wall as Mikey was on the manhole cannon.
"Aw yeah! Fire and manhole covers!" Mikey called as he started firing. "Eat it, Chrome Dome!" He yelled as he kept hitting the robot, but then it used its laser eyes and slice the covers and used it's plasma whip to toss Mikey away before lifting up the Shellraiser and tossed it on its side as the rest of the Turtles got out in time.
"Aw! I just waxed her, too!" Leo complained as Karai gave a yell as she and her Footbots were still fighting the robot who is using its plasma sword.
"Dudes! I so want plasma-chucks!" Mikey called as Donnie and Tal joined them. "Donnie, can you hook a turtle up?" Mikey asked, looking at Donnie.
The Elite Footbot dismembered the Footbots like nothing as Tal noticed the panel on its back was sparking, "Don, it's back!" She pointed.
"Of course!" Donnie said before turning to the others, "Guys, I think I know how we can take that thing down!"
"Oh, are you two on this team?" Jenny questioned as she and the others rushed past them.
"Yeah, way to ditch us, guys!" Leo added in agreement while Ames and Mikey blew raspberries at the two smart turtles.
"Hey go easy on them guys," April called out, "If it wasn't from Donnie and Tal, I-" She was cut off when Karai kicked her from the side.
"April!" Robyn called before Karai knocked her down next.
"I don't need that stupid robot to finish you two!" Karai declared before jumping at them again.
"Oh no!" Donnie said in worry.
Vee then turned to him, "Leo and I will help them," she said before rushing at Karai, "You guys deal with-"
"Chrome-Dome!" Mikey and Ames declared as Chrome dome finished off the Footbots and turned to the turtles.
The Turtles distracted Chrome-Dome, tying it arms with Mikey's kusarigama chain and Ames's whips while Donnie and Tal opened its back panel and pulled out its wires.
Chrome-Dome's eye twitched, "Error! Error!" It said before spinning around, with the turtles yelling from the speed until they were knocked off except for Donnie and Tal.
Mikey then noticed the plasma sword, and then charged at the robot, jumping the chains and whips before stabbing Chrome-Dome through the chest, shutting it down.
With the O'Neils, Karai kicked April back before Robyn socked her in the jaw and Karai looked up just in time to see Leo kick her down and pointing his sword at her, "It's over Karai!" He declared.
"For now!" Karai yelled as she jumped up and threw a smoke bomb as she vanished around the same time Chrome-Dome falls to the ground as Mikey pulled out the Plasma Blade.
"Whoa! Can I keep it? Can I keep it?" Mikey asked the others as he waved the sword around, which they quickly ducked before they glared angrily at Mikey, who gave a nervous look as he dropped the weapon and gave a sheepish look.
"That wasn't too difficult," April said as Robyn helped her up.
"Easy does it April, it's over now," Robyn said as the others came over.
"Not bad, for a human," Tal commented with a smirk and hands on her hips.
"You weren't too bad either," April shot back with a smirk of her own as she looked at the turtles, "Thanks guys, I just wanted to say…" Then April remembered, "Oh my gosh, Casey!"
"Oh right, come on!" Robyn said as they rushed off leaving the turtles with surprised, white disk eyes.
"Who's Casey?" Olly wondered.
The two girls made it back to the rink, just in time to see Casey jab his hockey stick into the last Footbot, "And that is how you play hockey!" Casey declared.
"Casey! Are you okay?" April asked as she went on to the ice but slipped.
"Of course, I'm alright!" Casey assured as he caught her, "Whoa, steady now Red," He said.
April smiled at him while Robyn did the same from the sidelines while on the stairs, Donnie watched them before looking solemn and walking away.
Back at the Lair, the turtles watch SRMFF as the princess returned to the team, "Hey guys," April called as they turned to see her and Robyn at the entrance with smiles.
"April!" Leo said.
"Robyn!" Naomi added.
"Hey there!" Vee, Ames and Olly greeted.
"You're back!" Raph and Jenny cheered.
"What up?!" Mikey said with a bright smile.
Donnie smiled at April gratefully as she returned it and Master Splinter approached them, "It is very good to see you again April, and welcome Robyn," He greeted the two.
"Pleasure to meet you Master Splinter, April's told me all about you," Robyn said before shooting a look at April, "Though I'm a little ticked she never mentioned me before."
April gave a sheepish shrug, "Sorry sis, kinda busy fighting alien robots and evil ninjas," She said before turning to Master Splinter, "I missed you, Master Splinter, I… hope we can start training again soon. And you think my sister could join?" She requested.
"Of course. Whatever you wish." Splinter said with a smile as the three bowed.
April then turned to the turtles, "I never got a chance to tell you guys that," She stopped for a moment before looking guilty, "I'm sorry, for everything,"
The turtles looked confused, "You're sorry? But we were the ones that got your dad mutated." Leo reminded her.
"It was an accident, you didn't even know there was mutagen on that ship," April told them, "And more importantly, you're just as much my family as my dad and Robyn are. I don't want us to end up like Shredder and Master Splinter," She said with a smile to Tal as the periwinkle turtle smiled and nodded back.
Mikey then approached April, "You the best April!" He called as he gave her a thumbs up. "To mark this day, I offer you the Slice of Eternal Reunion." He said as he offered her a slice of pizza, but it has bugs on it as April touched it.
"It has lint and dead bugs all over it." April pointed out.
"I know. I just found it under my bed." Mikey said as he nuzzled it, "It's eternal," He said before eating the pizza much to everyone's disgust.
"Michelangelo, you are one strange turtle." Naomi commented in disgust.
April then approached Donnie, "Thanks Donnie for always being there, even when I didn't want you to be," She said before giving him a hug and then broke it before turning to Tal, "And thank you Tal, for telling me what I needed to hear, even if I didn't want to hear it," She said before holding out her hand, "Friends?"
Tal looked at her for a moment before smiling, "Friends," She replied, shaking April's hand.
April then turned to the others, "So, you gonna tell where you new turtles came from?" She asked.
"Yeah, I'd like to hear this story too." Robyn said.
"Heh, where do we start?" Olly mused before starting to tell their story to the two humans.
While the others talked Donnie tapped on Tal's shoulder, "Hey Tal, can we talk alone?" He asked her. Tal raised a brow but nodded as Donnie brought them over to his lab and he turned to her, "I just wanted to say, thank you." He said while rubbing his neck.
"For what?" Tal asked with a brow.
"Well everything, the Retro-mutagen, Timothy and now helping bring April back to us," Donnie explained while smiling at Tal as she gave a blushing smile back while twirling her bandanas. "I couldn't have done any of this without you so I want you to know that, I'm grateful you came to New York." He added before pulling her into a hug.
Tal was surprised but hugged back. "What are friends for, Donnie? We look out for one another and make sure we always stick together. Even if things go bad, we have friends to look out for us." She told him as they broke away.
"Well, I'm glad the one looking out for me is you." Donnie said before he leaned over and gave her a kiss.
This made Tal's eyes turn into white disks as she found herself in the void with her heart racing. "So… awesome…" She said as she faded into the void before she flew around the world in a rainbow trail and hearts in her eyes. "I LOOOOOVE BEING A TURTLE!" She exclaimed in joy.
