Chapter #63

*Wednesday May 25th, 2016. About 6:45p.m.*

"Okay there's no freaking way! NO!" Sam bellowed.
"Shhh! Lower your voice! If anyone shows up early then they're going to coming running back here if they hear what they think is me shouting like that" S2 bit back.
The two Sam's, along with their two Jay's, had returned to the alternates apartment where they would be meeting up with the rest of their alternate family. At the current moment they were making sure that Jay and Sam fit the parts of who they were in this dimension. Jay's changes were very minimal and were more so based on accessories and hair product that he needed to wear and use since that's what Brenda had bought for him. Sam on the other hand was struggling to dress and look like her alternate self.
"I'm not wearing a dress and that's final" Sam pouted as she flopped down on the bed.
"How do you expect to ever get a boyfriend when you act like a child?" S2 said with a shake of her head as he continued to look through her never-ending wardrobe.
"Ughhhh I already told you that I'm not looking for a boyfriend. And even if I was I wouldn't want him if he couldn't handle the package that is known as me."
"Fair enough, but if you want to make a first move on a clueless guy, when the time comes!" she proclaimed before Sam could argue with her, "then you should pay attention to the clothes that I own. Trust me when I say they aid in getting men's attention" she said with a bite of her lip.
"You disgust me" Sam muttered, her face buried into the sheets.
"How about this?" S2 asked as she held up a long sleeved puffy sweater along with a white skirt.
"Skirts are as bad as dresses!" Sam shouted.
"Okay…how about this?" S2 asked, again, this time holding up a long sleeve gray cardigan, a pair of skinny jeans, and a white crop-top cami.
"That would show off my stomach, that's a major nope!" Sam said, making an X with her arms.
"Oh come on! It's either wear a dress and keep your belly covered, or wear a crop top with long pants. There's nothing else that I own outside of those options."
"Let me take a look."
Sam swung her legs around and jumped off the bed. She walked over towards the closet, moved some shirts around and finally made an official decision of what she would wear.

Her final outfit included a red zip-up jacket, green t-shirt crop-top, black leggings, and black with white striped air foam shoes (all Adidas brand of course).
"Guess I figured out your favorite brand" S2 teased. "Alright so Kris apparently is coming, so just be cool okay?"
"You said-" Sam began with wide eyes.
"I know, I know. But he and Chuck are really good friends so he invited him even though I said it was family only."
Sam paused. "Kris and Chuck are really good friends?"
"Ha!" S2 burst out. "They're practically attached at the hip. Once I told Chuck that Kris and I were official he went crazy and was all 'well I need to make sure he's right for you' even though Kris and I had been friends for years by that point. Anyway, he asked Kris to hangout one night and the rest is history! Sometimes I have to fight my own brother for my boyfriend's attention. How crazy is that?" S2 chuckled.
"Chuck really said all that?"
The change in tone instantly caught S2's attention. "Yeah. Was he not like that with you?"
Sam slowly sat on the bed next to her alternate.
"I honestly don't know. Chuck was only 10 when he passed away" she stated, her voice much softer and calmer than before. "Wait…it's been 6 years since then. That means…oh my gosh, my brother is 16 years old."

The two momentarily sat in silence. It hadn't dawned on Sam just how old her siblings now were. She had caught a glimpse of them not long after she had arrived in this new dimension, but it was a quick glimpse since that was all she could handle at that time. She was now going to see her baby brother who had only been 10 years old the last time she saw him as a now mini adult at the age of 16.
S2 gently pulled Sam's head so that it laid on her shoulder.
"You okay?" she asked softly.
"Mmm" Sam hummed.
S2 checked her phone. "They should be here within the next few minutes, you sure you're ready?"
Sam carefully stood up. "I got this. This could be the only chance I'll ever get to see my siblings again, I'm not going to lose that chance."
Just then the two Jay's knocked and then entered the room.
"Hey, how are you holding up?" Jay asked.
"Chuck is 16 now" Sam stated bluntly.
"Are you serious?! Aw man" Jay said, shaking his hands while he squeezed his eyes shut.
"You're freaking out as well, huh?" Sam said with sympathy.
"Honestly, yes. Very much. Like I was so happy to see them all again. But now I'm realizing how much time has passed and it's making me really emotional and I'm nervous I'm gonna break down in front of everyone."
"Yesss!" Sam blurted out. "I feel the exact same way!"
The group went silent once they heard a knock coming from the other room.
"Are you both ready for this?" J2 asked. "And remember, if anything happens then the two of us will be right upstairs in my room. It's a bit roomier in there so it will be easier for us to hide if we need to."
Sam and Jay looked at each other and with a smile, they both nodded towards each other.
"Let's go see our family" Sam said with a nervous yet excited smile.

Themes:
Taeyeon-All with You
Jessica-Golden Sky

The two entered the living room and made their way over towards the door. Sam opened the door and she and her brother froze as they observed the group in front of them.
Jamie who was now 29 instead of 23 now had longer hair and while she still looked young as ever, it was clear that her faced looked much more mature compared to before. If anything, Jamie looked more beautiful and sophisticated than ever before. However, now that everyone else was taller, Jamie was now the shortest member of the family!
Amber who was now 27 instead of 21 had gone through a similar facial transition as her older sister. She now had shorter hair which she had dyed a sandy blonde, and her t-shirt allowed the world to take in her tattoos on her right arm. Sam thought she looked more gorgeous than ever before, and she seemed so much more confident as well.
Brian who was now 23 instead of 17 had a noticeable growth spurt, since he was actually a hair taller than Jay now! It was obvious that he had allowed his fashionista sisters to teach him how to style his hair and take care of his skin since his facial features were now all emphasized so that he now looked like a sophisticated movie star.
Nick who was now 22 instead of 16 was actually the tallest in the group! Sam could also easily tell that her brother had been working out within the past 6 years due to the muscle he now had which was not there before.
Haley who was now 20 instead of 14 had obviously mastered her make-up craft. Her make-up wasn't caked on, but it was noticeably there, just like Jamie who was also a make-up genius. Sam noticed the same thing with her sister's hair. Haley used to just straighten it, but now it was wavy and full of volume.
And then there was Chuck who was now 16 instead of 10. His growth spurt was as evident as the muscle he had packed on (what had he and Nick been doing these past few years?!) since he was now about the same height as Jay. Her younger brother actually had a sense of style now and had even styled his slightly longer hair so that is swooshed to the side some in a flowy motion.

Kris and Brenda were standing towards the back of the group. Overall they both looked the same as before, but with much more stylish hairstyles which Sam assumed was influenced by her sisters. She questioned just how much Jamie and Haley actually influenced others to change their looks, and how different things would be in modern day back home if they both still had that type of influence.

"Hey kiddo, thanks for the invite" Amber said as she entered the room, ruffling Sam's hair in the process.
Sam fought her hardest to keep a natural looking smile as her siblings all entered the room. She needed to act natural like this was any normal day where she was hanging out with her family, but man did she want to cry her eyes out.
They were here! People she had not seen for 6 years, and while they were all the same they were also all so different.

"So, who brought games?" Kris asked as he closed the door. He then looked at Sam and instantly sensed the tension and anxiety within her. "Hey, you good?" he asked, gently placing his hand on the back of her neck.
'Shit, I'm a girlfriend now!' Sam thought to herself. This new type of worry quickly replaced her previous thoughts and simultaneously changed her mood.
"Yeah, I'm all good. Just been stressed out, hence wanting a sudden game night" she said with a soft but cheerier tone.
"Oh I feel that" Kris replied with a wide smile. He took her hand and led her into the living room. "Let's see what crazy games everyone brought."
The two made their way into the living room which was already filled with laughter.
"Oh come on! You guys have never heard of Don't Step In It?" Brian asked with a straight face.
"Where the heck did you find this?" Jamie asked, almost falling off the sofa from her laughter.
"He got it as a prank gift and he decided that tonight was the night to play it" Haley replied, placing her cup down on the coffee table, knowing very well that she wasn't going to be drinking anything if she continued to laugh this much.

As Kris and Sam found a comfy spot on the carpet, Sam looked over and realized that Jay and Brenda had already begun opening the drinks and snacks that had been brought to the gathering.
Once everyone was sitting in the living room, the group voted on which games they wanted to play first. The options were Just Dance through the Play Station, Cards Against Humanity, Pie Face, Twister, and apparently Don't Step In It. Obviously, Don't Step In It won and was the first game to be played.
Sam lost count of how many times she had to hold onto her sides because of the hilarious reactions everyone made once they stepped in the brown playdough that was placed on the mat. The group decided to create their own rules and declared that if each player could dance to a song without stepping into the brown playdough placed on the mat, then they won that round. The person dancing had to wear a blindfold so that they couldn't determine where the playdough was as they danced, and even though everyone knew it wasn't really poop, their reactions were still hysterical since for a split second everyone forgot what was happening as they stepped in the goo.
It was literally the dumbest game ever, and yet everyone was having the time of their lives because of the company they were with.

"Alright Sam you're up!" Nick declared, removing the blindfold and handing it to his sister.
"Let's do this" Sam said with a chuckle. She never imagined that this is what she would be doing with her siblings after reuniting with them after their deaths, yet here she was. Dancing around on a plastic mat to Sober by Big Bang, trying to avoid stepping in playdough representing dog poop. This was the furthest thing she had in mind when seeing her siblings again, but she saw all the positives to this situation.
As she danced around with her blindfold she listened to everything that she could.
She listened to Amber sing and rap better than ever before to each song from the new album, proving that her skills had improved immensely over the past 6 years.
She overheard Jamie, Brenda, and Haley talking about working for Channel 6 News (apparently Brenda's mother had highly recommended the three girls) and how they were loving their segment on the news where they were able to focus on stories related to health and beauty tips. Sam never knew that any of them were interested in this career, but apparently each of them were loving every second of it!
She heard Jay, Brian, Nick, Kris, and Chuck all cheering and sensed them all dancing around her, all livelier than she could ever remember seeing them before.
While she couldn't see perfectly through the cloth made blindfold, she could see Brian and Haley holding hands while they danced together, and assumed that the two were now officially in a happy relationship together. In this dimension they never were adopted into the same family, so dating was no problem for the childhood friends.
She then heard Nick shouting out workout routines for Kris and Chuck to complete with him as they turned their workouts into a new dance routine. She heard him mention how they were routines he completed when he trained with his universities soccer team and how he couldn't wait to sign his contract to go pro within the next few months.
She also heard Chuck shouting back alternate routines since apparently he was playing for his high school's soccer team as well, since you know, he was now old enough to go to high school.
She also couldn't help but smile as she overheard Brian telling Jay all about how well his restaurant was doing, clarifying that Brian was still following his dream of successfully owning his own food business even at such a young age.

Sam was so focused on everyone else that she totally forgot about the game she was playing and stepped right into the playdough.
The room erupted with laughter as Sam practically squeaked after stepping into the brown goop.
"Oh it's warm! Get it off!" she yelled, plopping herself onto the couch and lifting her feet in the air.
"Eww!" "Aw c'mon!" "For real?!" were some of the many things that Sam heard her siblings and friends shouting as she continued to hold her feet up in the air.
"Nose goes!" she shouted, to which the youngest was the last to hear and was stuck with wiping the playdough off her feet. (Kris would have happily volunteered, but he had just headed towards the bathroom before Sam lost the round).

As everyone was cleaning up the game and getting ready for some rounds of Just Dance, Chuck noticed his sister staring at him. He was used to his sister doing things like this just to mess with him, but this seemed…a bit weird.
"Wanna take a picture?" he asked with a chuckle.
"How are you 16 already?" she questioned softly.
Chuck froze. "What's wrong?" he asked cautiously.
"Um, what?" Sam stuttered nervously.
"You're acting strange. Did something happen?"
"Lower your voice dude, I'm fine. Just, having a sister moment."

"Ugh, you just want Kris to be over here feeling you up, huh? He'd be all weirdly massaing your feet and stuff" he teased.
"Yes, because I've turned into the type of woman who has a fetish for people touching my feet. Totally" she replied sarcastically.
Chuck just shook his head as he pushed her foot down, cleaning off the last of the playdough. "Man, you sound like mom a moment ago though."
"Mom has a foot fetish?!" Sam stated with wide eyes.
"No! I meant about the whole 'how are you already 16' thing you dork! She's always saying stuff like that since her last 'baby' will be graduating from high school in a few years."
"Mom…" Sam muttered softly, realizing she had been so focused on her siblings that she hadn't even thought to contact her parents.
"Yes, mom. The woman who gave us life. You sure you're okay?" he questioned again.
"She's just exhausted since she sleeps all day and stays up all night" Jay stated as he slapped his hands down onto Sam's shoulders.
Sam mouthed the words 'thank you' and laughed along with the others as everyone stood up to begin their dance party.

About 4 people at a time actually held the controllers while they played the game, but the group as a whole got up onto their feet and danced around. The group partied and danced like crazy, constantly bumping into each other the entire time. Eventually they turned off the game and just started dancing to some of their most favorite songs.
K-pop, rap, pop, rock, songs of every genre were played through the speakers as everyone jammed out and acted like the biggest group of adult dorks anyone had ever seen.
For a moment, Sam felt the strangest mix of joy and guilt overcome her. She had Kris grabbing her hands and pulling him towards her as they danced together, her sisters were there to dance with her to all the more poppy-girly songs (the boys danced as well, but they purposefully were acting like dorks rather than trying to actually nail the dance moves like the girls were), Amber was there to rap with her, and all in all, she just had a large group that was obviously very close and comfortable with each other.

She was reminded of her childhood when her group of 8 would hangout like this every weekend because it had just become routine to spend time with loved ones, especially after everything they had been through. Now the group was even larger now that Kris and Brenda were here having fun with them.
Sam would never be able to describe how happy she was in this moment. She always assumed that if she ever got a chance to see her siblings again that she would ask them a million questions, that she would break down and cry…instead, she picked up right where they left off.
She danced and laughed and talked with her siblings as if she had actually been living with them all these years, as if they was her actual life now.
Brenda and Jay were living a life as a couple and fulfilling all the dreams they had before starting a family, Amber was fulfilling her dream as a rapper and proving that not all women had to reveal their bodies in order to become successful musical artists, Jamie and Haley were excelling and moving up in the world in a career she never knew they were even interested in (to that extent at least), Brian was a successful business owner as his restaurant was thriving, Nick was in college since he also apparently wanted to be a professional athlete, and Chuck was just simply enjoying the simple and sweet day to day life of being a high school student.
And then here she was, dancing with Kris who in this universe loved her more than life itself.

She wondered if this is how everything would have turned out if she had never lost her siblings, if the Foot had never stolen her life from her…but what about the turtles?
She loved her siblings and would have given anything to have them continue to stay in her life, for this to be her reality, but then she never would have met her new family, her new reason for living.
Sam didn't realize that because of her mental conflictions, that she wasn't moving to the beat and was begin to move slower and slower.
"Whoa, you good there?" Kris asked, putting his hand around his 'girlfriends' waist.
Sam looked down at the hand that was now on her hip. 'That doesn't belong there' she thought to herself.
She pictured moments similar to this where she danced around with her mutant and human vigilante family. That's who she should be with, but was it wrong to like this family dynamic as well? She didn't have the same feelings for Kris as she did when she was younger, but she liked the picture that had been painted in front of her, a picture of what could have been for her and her whole family. However, she also loved the picture that was her real world, and she couldn't let that go either.
"This isn't right" she whispered to herself.
"Sam?" Jay asked as he now stood in front of his sister. "Where's your head at?"
Sam slowly shook her head. "How am I supposed to choose one over the other? Act like one doesn't exist so I can be with the other? I can't do it."
"Um, what's happening?" Jamie asked, picking up her phone and pausing the music.
"I can't have one or the other Jay, I can't do it" Sam said again in a pained tone.
At this point everyone froze and all eyes were on Sam. Everyone kept turning towards one another as they whispered to see who knew what was wrong with their sister/friend.

Jay took a deep breath as he gently placed his hands on his sister's shoulders.
"Sam, would you like for us to leave?" he asked calmly.
She shook her head as a stray tear rolled down her cheek. "No, they should be here! We should all be together" she said, beginning to lose her voice as she gasped for breaths.
"Our parents?" Hailee asked softly, rubbing her sister's back as she tried to calm her down.
"No, the guys!" Sam shouted.
"Excuse me?" Kris asked abruptly.
"No, I mean!...I mean…"
Sam was about to confess everything and suffer the consequences afterwards, when she saw a large blue circle begin to form right outside the closed window.

Suddenly, something small shot through the window, and within the split second it took for everyone to look at what it was that just shattered the glass, the small black orb blew up into a large dust cloud.
"Hide-!" Jay shouted before getting cut off.
"Jay? JAY?!" Brenda began to shriek, not being able to see what stopped her boyfriend from calling out to the rest of them. Some grunts and groans could be heard, but nothing could be seen.
Slowly, the smoke began to clear and everyone gasped at the sight in front of them.
Only Jay and Sam knew who they were, but Karai and Tatsu had entered the room through the portal outside the window and now, while Karai held a kunai knife to Jay's throat, Tatsu was holding a gun (one of the gun's the rock soldier's owned) at the back of the heads of J2 and S2 who seemed as if they had been forced and were now laying on the ground.
"Hello Sam. I was surprised to find you here, but hey, makes shit easier for us" Karai said with a sneer.
"Why?" Sam asked. "Why are you here?"
"What's going on?!" Amber shouted.
This got Tatsu's attention as he immediately aimed the gun at the woman who had just spoke.
"NO!" Sam shrieked.
"What's wrong Sam? Don't want to lose your siblings again?" Tatsu asked with a nasty scowl.
"Again?" Haley whispered, clinging onto Brian's hand as if her life depended on it.
"Stop talking!" S2 shouted, not wanting her families confusion to lead to any deaths.
"WHY ARE YOU HERE?!" Sam shouted once more.
"Simple" Karai huffed, "so that we can force you to come with us. We can't do the turtles any harm if they don't see you get hurt."
"No…" Sam said, shaking her head in despair. "This wasn't supposed to happen. I stayed away so that-"
"So what?!" Karai interrupted. "So you could stay safe? So they could stay safe and not have to worry about you? Heh, I guess Kraang's methods of kidnapping you through the portal last time really got to you all, huh? Well I hate to…actually I love to break it to you, you're ALWAYS going to be a threat to their safety. As long as you're alive, you will always be a liability to them. They will always be at a disadvantage as long as you're alive. You will NEVER be able to run away from us, from the Foot, Kraang, whoever your enemy may be. I'd kill you now while you're powerless, but that would take all the fun away" Karai stated with a wicked grin.

"Let's go!" Tatsu yelled, making every jump slightly from the abrupt volume of his voice. "Everyone walk through this portal NOW! Or else you will be shot. I don't prefer to use these types of weapons, but they make my life a hell of a lot easier."
"Sam, what is going on?" Kris mumbled.
"Oh, that's not your girlfriend" Karai announced. She then yanked on S2's hair as the girl groaned out from the force being applied to the back of her head. "This one is. Same with the Asian guy. That one's not your man" she stated as she pointed at Jay.
"What?" Brenda trembled.
"WALK!" Tatsu demanded as he shot the gun off towards the ceiling. "Or else I can re-enact some familiar scenes for Sam and Jay. Want that?" he snarled.
"Everyone just do what he says!" Jay shouted. "I'm begging you, just do what he says" he stated, his voice cracking as tears began to fill his eyes. He couldn't watch them all die, not again.

Tatsu pulled J2 and S2 up from the floor and shoved them back through the portal. Each person in the room was guided to walk through the portal where they were lead to what looked like a giant battle arena. Each person was handcuffed and shoved down to the ground where they all cowered against the glowing wall. The room was surrounded by gray walls with glowing purple strips within them, and the ground was made of what seemed to be a glossy black stone, almost like granite but much solid and tougher to break. There were some metal posts and cornered off barriers located throughout the room, almost as if a gladiator battle was going to be held within this room. Sam couldn't imagine what it was that Kraang used this room for on a daily basis.

Just as that thought crossed her mind, Kraang entered the room, cackling the entire time like a mad man.
"Ahhh I've been waiting for this moment" he snickered, before he jumped when he heard shrieks of horror coming from Haley Jamie, and Brenda.
"Ugh, shut them up" Kraang huffed.
Karai walked down the line and punched each of the three women in the stomachs, and decided to punch Amber as well.
"Dude what the hell?" she shouted.
Karai then cuffed her hand around the women's neck.
"I don't remember saying you could ask questions" she stated before shoving the women's head back towards the wall.
"STOP IT!" S2 shrieked. "Just stop it!"
"Hmmmm" Kraang hummed, "now which one of you is the real Sam I wonder? I hadn't considered what to do with two of you."
"Leave her out of this!" Sam demanded.
"No one told you to talk!" Karai shouted before back handing the woman.
"SAM!" Kris cried out, fighting his hardest to release himself from his handcuffs before being kicked by Tatsu.
"Heh, you crying out over a woman who's not even your girlfriend. You even kissed her" Tatsu taunted.
"What the fuck is this man?" Nick asked is desperation. "Who are you? Why are we here?"

Kraang held up a hand before Karai or Tatsu could even take one step towards the man who had just spoken.
"I am Kraang, a technologically advanced alien from another dimension. My rock soldiers, these lovely ninjas, and the Jay and Sam you've been hanging out with for the past hour are all from a different dimension as well. It's a shame you decided to hang out with them tonight. If you weren't with them, then you wouldn't have been roped into all this. You see, those two and their mutant friends have caused me and your other attackers a great deal of frustration. Basically, they're all a pain in our asses! So, thank them and all they're meddling for being the reason you're here."

Everyone, both due to their confusion and their fear, just stared at the ground.
"I'm shocked Samantha" Kraang continued on, "where is your sense of humor? No jokes? No tricks? You're just lying their silently. Are you ill?"
"Why are they all here?"
"MY GOODNESS! Didn't you hear any of what I just said? I took your powers but that shouldn't have affected your hearing."
"I know why I'm here!" she shouted in return, "but why are they here? Hurting them won't hurt the turtles. You only need me for that."
"Heh, who said I only wanted to mess with the turtles?" Kraang asked in a twisted tone. "Granitor, throw her over here."
The tall gray colored rock creature nodded and did as he was told as he grabbed onto the back of Sam's shirt and threw the girl forward.
"How did they all die again?" Kraang asked Karai.
Sam's head shot up. "No!"
"Most of them were gunshot wounds."
"NO!" Sam shrieked, beginning to kick her feet out and violently fling her arms as they were cuffed behind her.
"The brown haired girl was stabbed though, the youngest boy had his wrists slit-"
"STOP IT!"
"And that one you know, he obviously didn't die, but he was beaten up pretty bad."
"SHUT UP!" Sam continued to shout. She was flailing her body around at this point, it was all she could do as she predicted what terrible things Kraang was plotting.
"Woooooooow Samantha!" Kraang bellowed as he took a step forward, carefully placing one of his gigantic feet right above Sam's head as she still lie on the ground. One slip, one wrong move, and her head would be crushed.

"Get them in ready position" Kraang demanded.
"This way, let's go!" General Traag demanded as he and Granitor pulled on the arms and dragged Jamie, Amber, Nick, and Brian over towards one of the barriers so that they were basically piled on top of each other in the corner of one of the barriers.
Screams echoed throughout the space as everyone began to catch on to what was happening.
"Oh, the Asian guy got the bullet straight between the eyes, remember that" Tatsu called out.
"DAMMIT STOP THIS!" Jay began to shout, acting the same way Sam just had.
"What do you want us to do with them?" Karai asked as she pointed at Brenda and Kris.
Kraang shrugged.
"Get creative. We already have beatings, stabbings, and shootings to prepare for."
"No, please!" Brenda cried out as she and her brother were dragged and slammed against the wall.
"Got a whip?" Tatsu asked in a dangerously calm tone.
"GRANITOR!" Kraang called out.
"On it sir!"
"And make sure to add the rest to that last group as well when you return!"
"Understood sir!"

Kraang couldn't help but laugh as he heard the cries of terror.
"How does it feel Samantha? To know that you can't do anything but lay there. To know that eventually you're siblings are all going to die AGAIN? HA! All you can do is lie there and listen to their screams since you're powerless. You're just an average human being who can't protect her loved ones anymore. You won't even get to see their faces when it happens. I'm going to make sure you suffer last. First, you're going to listen as I destroy the turtles, and then you're going to listen as I destroy your family a second time" he cackled maniacally.
"Well Samantha?...Samantha? HEY!"
Kraang took a step back and then picked up the girl so that she had to face him. He was shocked at her poker face.
"Well then" he scoffed. "You're going to be that way, huh? Acting like a tough guy? I change my mind then. You're going to watch everything, and I'll make it even more gruesome once I get my hands on those turtles!" he bellowed as he shoved her up against the far wall, giving her a perfect view of all the terrifying sights in front of her.

Jamie, Brian, Nick, and Amber were all huddled against a corner with a rock soldier aiming a gun at them. Karai kept walking around Chuck and Haley who were now sitting back to back as she held out a knife towards them. Brenda, Kris, J2 and S2 were lined up along the wall as Tatsu kept cracking a whip against the ground. Jay was forced to lie on the ground while Granitor was now threating to crush parts of his body by squishing them, just how Kraang had just been threatening Sam moments before.

Sam fought her hardest to remain emotionless and not to shake while she was now handcuffed literally to the wall so that she was hanging by her wrists which were spread out, as if she was frozen in the middle of doing jumping jacks.
She closed her eyes and mentally prayed, hoping that this wasn't the end. Regardless, she couldn't let Kraang win any more than he already had. He thrived and got off on other's misery and desperate reactions, so she would fight her hardest not to provide him that satisfaction. However, she also knew the second he caused any serious harm, she would crack quickly.

That's when Kraang ordered Karai and Tatsu to gather the turtles. They used the Laser Dimension Blade to open a new portal, and about 5 minutes later, the battle began.

Hey! Thank you to anyone who is still reading this and reads this chapter!
Sorry it took so long for me update
Sorry there aren't even any turtles in this chapter, but that won't be the case for the next one.
Hope everyone is staying safe during these tough times!
