I own nothing except the stuff I made up

Purple Lies

There was a loud ringing in everyone's ears immediately as an alarm went off. Everyone was called into the living room. Even Splinter showed up. "Alright, everyone! A dire event has befallen us!"

"Is it Big Mama using the Orichalcum Leo lost!" Raph snapped very alert now as Leo shot him a dirty look.

"No worse than that!" Donnie declared.

"The Shredder has returned! In spite of us defeating him and destroying the Dark Armor!?" Splinter gasped in horror.

"What no? That's not happening! He huffed annoyed." Donnie sighed.

"What is happening! Is that the Purple Dragons are targeting a new piece of Tech!" Shelldon declared.

"EXACTLY!" Donnie declared.

The rest of the family just stared at the two annoyed. Ever since he had been kidnapped and hacked by them. Shelldon now hated the Purple Dragons as much as Donnie did. Which fair. But did that warrant this whole situation?

Splinter didn't think so. "I'm going back to bed!" he grunted marching off.

"Once again! This is serious!" Donnie snapped. "The Olympus Key is a unique piece of Tech that can override all security and programing. In any electronic device. Then change aspects of the that device's software to their liking."

"Oh no! They could get rid of the Pink Shiny Pokémon!" Lizzie cried in horror.

"Yes, I suppose that is one thing they could do with it." Donnie sighed.

"There's a lot of crimes they could commit with that." Mikey noted worriedly.

"Thank you!" Donnie exclaimed.

"Donnie, we have to make sure Big Mama can't use the Orichalcum Leo lost." Raph snapped.

"Do you have to add that detail constantly?" Leo snarked but went ignored.

"Not chase around a bunch of tech bullies!" The Snapper finished.

"Raph, if we don't check on this it could turn into something big later. And I know you'd agree with me if-." Mikey said trailing off.

Raph turned away. "Yeah, well things change!"

"Raph!" Mikey protested. But he turned away completely. "Fine! But I'm going!"

"Me too! I've gotta get back at them for stealing my Data!" Shelldon snipped.

"I think I'll go just because you don't want to." Leo said with a slight sneer. Raph growled at this.

"Guys!" Mikey hissed stressed already.

"We have to save the Pink shinies!" Lizzie spastically declared.

"Okay how about we let April, Tiger Claw and Krysta know. They can try and get the Orichalcum. And we'll watch the Purple Dragons. Hell, we'll even swap you with one of the B-Team? Sound Good?" Klunk asked.

"Yeah! Raph is goin' to sleep! To take care of the important thing tomorrow!" he declared storming off. Everyone just went back to their rooms. Klunk sat beside his head nuzzling him to comfort him. Mikey just sadly stroked her back.

"It'll be okay." Klunk tried to assure.

"I hope you're right." Mikey sighed sadly. He then noticed his phone buzzing. He picked it up. And started typing in the Messenger function.

"Hey Jayce." Mikey typed.

"Hey Pablo." Jayce texted back. "How are you? My night was rough, I was up all night trying to get this robot to work right. And I'm running out of time."

"Got a robot competition coming up?" Mikey asked a bit intrigued.

"You could say that." Jayce sighed in text. "Honestly talking with you the past three months. Has made things a lot easier."

"I have a good idea of what you're going through. So, I'm glad I can help." Mikey texted in relief. They texted a bit more through the night until they went to sleep. Mikey sighed.

"I wish I could help him more." Mikey sighed. "I don't know what to do. But I escaped abuse myself so why don't I!?" he groaned.

"Maybe because the situation is different? I don't know…" Klunk sighed.

X X X

The next Night, Shelldon and Raph had swapped Teams. As decided. Donnie had taken the Lead as they used his Mystic Tech to Track the Purple Dragons. "Okay! It looks like those fiends are once again trying to Rob the Nakamura Corporation!" Donnie growled.

"Didn't this and the Purple Game get them thrown into Juvie?" Leo asked as Mikey watched Jayce looking annoyed and resigned to being here.

"Yeah, it did." Mikey sighed.

"Tempestra's helping them break in!" Shelldon growled as the AI opened the door inside. Shelldon immediately flew down and hooked himself up to the building. Once he knew that Tempestra had shut down the security, immediately a bunch of alarms went off.

Shelldon chuckled evilly. "Revenge! He said cathartically!"

"RAAAAHHHH!" Tempestra in her own little drone screamed charging at him.

"Uh oh!" Shelldon muttered as he immediately took off. Donnie immediately charged as Kendra came up.

"Validae!" He shouted unleashing three two of them Mystic went to strike Kendra who immediately tried to counter with her own copy of Donnie's Tech Bo. Only for it to be destroyed instantly. "AHAHAH!" Donnie declared triumphantly.

Kendra jumped back. "Get the battle Bots now!" She snarled.

Immediately Jeremy and Jayce grabbed remotes that allowed for several of the Robots to appear. Jeremy's began rushing at Leo and Donnie. Who merely responded by portaling them into each other and smashing them with a triple mystic hammer swing respectively.

Mikey rushed at the ones made by Jayce. He allowed himself to take a couple of hits. They were slower though. And were already starting to fall apart. He yelped as he went down with a punch. However, he suddenly felt bits of arm on him.

"Huh?" Immediately Mikey noticed that Jayce's robots. Despite being somewhat copies of Kendra and Jeremy's and ultimately based on Shelldon's battle bot design. Were starting to fall apart. Lizzie cheered when she found she could break more of them easily.

"YAY!" Lizzie cheered.

"Look out!" Donnie shouted as he jumped between her and one of Kendra's Robots who started firing lasers. He put up a Mystic Sheild that countered with lasers of it's own. The Bot managed to put up a shield of it's own. Only for Leo to throw his sword behind it and immediately slash it in two.

"JAYCE!" Kendra snarled at him.

"Kendra, I told you! We'd be better off if I wrote the software for them!" Jayce tried to argue backing away from his stepsister.

"But that's not your job is it!?" Kendra snarled.

"Maybe you should make it his job!" Mikey growled.

"Stay out of this!" Kendra growled before whistling to Tempestra. Who immediately after dodging Shelldon and his battle cry making him crash from going too fast to pull up in time. Rushed over and inserted herself into the robot Kendra had just summoned, making it slightly larger and durable. This Tempestra was able to smash through Donnie's shield.

"Two can play at that game!" Donnie snarled as he tapped buttons in his mystic console. Immediately Shelldon flew over and hooked himself into his battle body. Donnie and him grinning stood side by side as they charged at the Robot.

Tempestra roared and landed a punch that they both dodged as Shelldon rocketed up and rushed forward. "BOOYAKASHA!" he shouted unleashing a bunch of lasers and then a bowling ball. Tempestra jumped away from all of it. Only to suddenly see a large pole arm fist Tech-Bo coming for her.

She yelped as she was sent flying back. "You little cheats!"

"Says the low-grade tech using Shelldon's and my superior plans and data!" Donnie growled. Tempestra growled.

"I'll show you superior!" she shouted unleashing spinning fists knocking Shelldon and Donnie back. The latter looking dazed as they crashed into the wall. As she rocketed over and raised both fists to slam them down on the two.

They rolled out of the way. Donnie then countered. Using his Mystic powers to make a large set of Robot fists belonging to his Yaldabaoth Avatar. "Phalanges Sandwich!" he shouted vigorously as Tempestra was launched upward.

"AND A BASH!" Shelldon shouted above her making his fists bigger before launching them at her. Meanwhile the rest of Jeremy's robots. (As all of Jayce's had been smashed.) had started to swarm the other turtles.

"Meteor Bash!" Leo and Mikey shouted together as Leo summoned a bunch of portals that Mikey retracted into his shell and flew into. Smashing the surrounded group of Robots as Mikey smashed through them expertly before knocking surviving ones into the air where Leo smashed them with a spinning kick before they landed back-to-back. The Robots exploding behind them.

Lizzie meanwhile. Was putting her WWLJD training to use. "HOOOOOTTT SOUUUUUPPPPP!" she shouted. Spinning a ladder, she grabbed nearby she used one mighty swing to send the rest into the air hitting Tempestra who had been blasted by Donnie into the air. They crashed into each other. And only Tempestra, though after ejecting and landing with a dazed thud by Kendra's feet survived.

"Damn it! We need to go!" Kendra snarled as the Dragons were forced to flee.

"Whoo hooo!" Mikey cheered.

"We saved all the Pink Shinies!" Lizzie cheered.

"Yup and that was what? Half an hour! Like they stood a chance against the guys that beat Shredhead!" Leo laughed. "Raph once again is worried about nothing."

"Maybe we'll get lucky, and Raph will get the Orichalcum." Mikey thought optimistically, feeling really good.

X X X

Raph and the rest of the B-Team made their way to the Nexus Hotel. One of the things they first noticed was an arch that seemed to scan people. Even humans. "That's not good. Looks like they know we want in." Krysta hummed her tail whipping behind her. With her ears flattened in anxiety.

"Let's try teleporting in with Mayhem!" Klunk suggested.

Raph beamed. "Hey that's a great idea."

"Okay Mayhem do your thing!" April declared. Mayhem nodded and teleported everyone just inside the lobby. Immediately they were in the lobby and ducked away from the New Bellhop who was asleep at the counter.

"Okay let's move!" Raph hissed to them. As he motioned to the elevator. Everyone immediately rushed towards it. They peeked inside no Bellhop oddly.

"That's strange…." Tiger Claw muttered and activated the Yokai levels in the Elevator. "Okay she'll keep the Orichalcum in her vault. So, we need to go to that floor. But there was no Bellhop in the Elevator. Which worries me.

"We've gotta hurry and get the Orichalcum!" Raph argued.

"And we will. But don't forget who were dealing with! We need to think about what we're doing." Tiger Claw sternly told him. "Big Mama could very well be expecting us!"

When they got to their floor they gaped. Raph making a little Ooh sound when they saw the area was wall to wall with Big Mama Soldiers.

"Like I said…." Tiger Claw huffed annoyed.

"BAD!" Klunk yelped.

"How many does she have?!" April asked her jaw dropping.

"I just know they weren't here the last time I was!" Krysta muttered worriedly. "Can Mayhem teleport us in and out of the vault?"

Mayhem chirped to Klunk. "He can try. But Big Mama might have an anti-teleporting field around it." Klunk translated. The Fox-like Yokai nodding in agreement.

"Lets try it then go from there." Tiger Claw suggested. Mayhem lit up and they disappeared but. Then they immediately landed in a heap back in front of the elevator which then closed and left them behind.

"That's not good." Raph muttered. Suddenly jumping down was Frida who pulled out her Kamas. Which shone in an aqua energy.

"That's bad!" Klunk yelped.

All the guards suddenly turned towards them.

"That's worse!" April yelped. Immediately the group was surrounded. Frida rushed at Raph who managed to block her blows with his sai.

Krysta immediately jumped over her and jumped onto her shoulders knocking her back before slamming a frozen tail down towards her which Frida immediately rolled out of the way of.

"APRILLLL O'NEEEEIIIILLLL!" April shouted rushing forward with her bat. She swung it down as Frida blocked it with her Kama before landing a kick in her stomach as she dodged out of the way of a slash from Tiger Claw. Then kicked his jaw up.

"Get them!" She called to the guards as they swarmed the others. Separating them from her and Raph.

The Snapper growled with his Power Punch rushed forward. Frida blasted at it breaking it down. Raph, however, disappeared, when she jumped and swiped at them. She suddenly found herself surrounded by many Raphs.

She growled and immediately sent a bunch of energy bullets that took them all out. But they all just disappeared. "What!?" she gasped as Raph immediately jumped down at her from above. She rolled out of the way. Immediately when she countered-attacked. He disappeared only for more copies to take his place some of them even. Knocking down some of Big Mama's soldiers.

Tiger Claw knocked out some more of his own as April smashed several into a nearby removable wall. They spun for a bit before disappearing. They then noticed something about how deeply trying to defeat or put down the other. Raph and Frida seemed to be.

"It's like they're both desperate to win…." Tiger Claw noted.

"Yeah…." April muttered watching a bit sadly.

X X X

Klunk had managed to sneak away from the battle and made her way into Big Mama's office. At least it seemed to be. There was a desk in here. And a large window. It also felt like the office overlooked the entirety of the city. Klunk immediately saw a wall across from the window and tapped the wall. The safe instantly appeared.

"This is it!" Klunk cheered her ears perking in joy. However, she heard growling and turned to see Gus immediately going into his battle form. He barked rushing at her as she yelped, her fur pricking up wildly. Thinking quickly, she changed into her Water Panther form and roared back. This made Gus yelp. And skid to a stop. Klunk jumped over him before quickly turning around and slamming into him as Bull. Surprised and now folded. Gus went flying into the Squid, Otter, Owl and Fox Bellhops. Immediately, however, she was surrounded again.

"Uh oh!" Klunk muttered her ears pinning to the back of her head. However, Mayhem teleported the others too her.

"Klunk, we need to go!" April shouted. Klunk nodded and jumped onto Raph before Mayhem teleported them back to the top of April's Apartment.

"NOOO! They chased us out!" Raph cried. He started punching the ground in rage, making everyone back away from him.

"Raph stop!" Tiger Claw shouted, grabbing his arms.

"This is all Leo's fault! All of it! Why can't he be serious! If It weren't for him I would've gotten it! I wish…..I wish-"

"Raph!" Krysta said kneeling in front of him. "Breathe! We'll try again. And this time we'll know what to expect. Clearly, she doesn't want to let go of it easy. But she's still hurt!"

Raph wasn't really listening all he could think about was how Big Mama held their entire city hostage. How their home was destroyed. How Carol, Tiger Claw and his father sacrificed themselves to let them escape. Frankenfoot being dead. Karai being brutally killed. The Memory seemed to be more twisted every time he thought about it.

"Raph?" April asked.

"I'm fine." He muttered soullessly storming off.

X X X

Mikey immediately rushed over to his phone when he returned home. From the Report they just got from April. Their mission was a failure. And thus, Raph was in an extremely foul mood right now. Right now, Leo was trapped in a cage made from Donnie's Mystic Powers as Mikey typed in a cover story how he found out he had trouble with Kendra. He could see the three dots on Jayce's profile.

"Hey Don, you gonna let me out of here?" He heard it from the other room. The Soft Shell didn't. "Great you made it soundproof. That's nice." Leo muttered slightly insulted.

"Only to Raphael." Donnie replied not turning. "And allow me to answer your question. With another question? Are you going to be a smug ass to our eldest brother?"

"I would never!" Leo protested.

"Scoff! We both know that's a lie! You have several times in the past Nardo! I'm not risking it!" Donnie snapped as Mikey turned back to his phone.

"I'm so sorry Jayce." Mikey typed.

"She always does this!" Jayce whined in text. "No matter what I do she always makes me make robots! They suck and break down later and she then verbally abuses me!"

"I know….I hope she's just stupid and not constantly setting you up." Mikey replied.

"Fuck if only!" Jayce groaned in text. Mikey sighed as they continued to talk. Mikey could just tell that Jayce was crying. He hated this! Trying to figure out what to do. Klunk let out a growl walking in.

"Klunk?" he asked. "Hey…" he cooed comfortingly lifting Klunk up in his arms. She sniffed a little as he comforted her by nuzzling her. "We'll figure this out." Mikey promised despite how unsure he felt.

"The only way Raph will feel better is if we get it away from him! But nothing we're doing is working. How'd we even beat Shredder."

"We worked together. But we're not together now, are we?" Mikey sighed.

"I don't think so…." Klunk replied.

X X X

Jayce groaned rubbing his eyes and leaning back in a chair at the playground in central park. He was starting to feel better sitting alone. "It's dangerous to be out alone at night Menino." Said a voice as a tall thin black man. With an afro, jeans and a leather vest appeared out of the shadows.

Jayce yelped and jumped up. "I HAVE A ROBOT!" he shouted as he pressed a button the Drone rushing forward but stuttered in place as they both stared at it. Instantly began to poof out smoke and fell with a thud and some sparks. He groaned in defeat. "At least kill me so fast! I don't feel it." He whimpered.

"Relax." The man groaned rolling his eyes. " I am Xever Montes I just couldn't help but notice you have eh shall we say bullying issue."

"You'd be right." Jayce sighed. "I just feel trapped….If I could just get the message across! No one would ever make fun of me! Or put me down again!" he growled clenching his fists.

"Sometimes change is required to gain success." Xever replied giving a card with a Phone Number on it. "My Employer knows a lot about a change that would be especially useful to you. Think about it. If your curious give us a call. I will say. If I were you. I'd look into this Pablo. He is not what he seems."

"What do you mean?" Jayce asked, looking up from the card to find him gone. He felt his anxiety start to rise as something Kendra once said began to creep into his mind.

"No one would ever genuinely like you…."

X X X

When Mikey woke up the next morning, he was greeted by a text that made his own anxiety sky rocket. "I want to meet in person. Come to central park in a couple of days? Deal?"

Mikey sweat his eyes large as one of them twitched. "BAD!" Klunk yelped reading the letter over his shoulder.

"No. this is okay! This is fine! This was gonna happen eventually. I'll just meet him in my human form!" Mikey said as he looked at his cloaking broach on the side table next to him.

"Are we sure this is a good idea?" Klunk asked. "And even if you went, you'd still be lying."

"I know…..I will tell him who I am one day. But not now." Mikey stated. As he put it own and tapped it. Changing into his human form.

"At least let me come with you." Klunk said changing her tail to be a normal cat one. Then taking off her Panic button and giving it to Mikey to hide. "We can buy me a harness on the way."

"Okay." Mikey replied smiling. They did just that and headed out to Central Park. Following Jayce's instructions. He saw him sitting out in the park that Klunk recognized as the one Shelldon was duped by the Dragons in.

"LoneDragonMaroon?" Mikey asked.

"PartyDude_87?" he asked.

"That right! It's me Pablo!" Mikey grinned, shaking his hand as they took a seat beside Jayce as Klunk jumped up onto his lap. And meowed.

"You walk your cat?" Jayce asked, surprised.

"Yeah, this is Klunk I showed you a picture before." Mikey replied.

"She's just as a cute in person." Jayce smiled petting her. She purred as they talked for a bit about art. And the video games and shows they liked. Mikey noting Owl House. Shera had kind of fallen off. Even though Jayce loved Shera. Mikey even showed him a picture of some of his art which he posted on Pictagram.

"That's awesome." Jayce cheered.

"Yeah. I'm really sorry your sister treats you so badly." Mikey sighed. "That horrible what she's doing over and over."

"Don't remind me." Jayce replied.

"I have a pretty good idea what you're going through. I'll help you stand up to Kendra next time. I promise." Mikey declared in a spur of the moment.

"You sure? She can be pretty scary." Jayce warned.

Mikey waved his hand confidently. "I can handle her." He assured. Kendra, Mikey would've described Kendra as loud, nasty and intimidating. But not scary. They sat in silence.

"Hey check this out." Jayce said pulling out his laptop and turning it on to see a top view RPG game that he began to play for Mikey to watch a bit.

"Wow that looks fun! I'd love to play it when it's done." Mikey cheered holding up Klunk to show her.

"You'll be the first." Jayce promised before looking a bit nervous. "But ummm you'd be honest about who you are with me right?"

Mikey's eyes went wide as he tried to hide his shock. "YEAH! Totally I promise!" he said mentally feeling Doctor Delicate Touch kick his ass over that.

"Thanks, you're the real friend I have Pablo." Jayce said as an invisible Arrow pierced Mikey's heart making him clutch it. The boy smiled, stood up and went off.

"Ooof." Klunk muttered, her ears flattened.

"Someday just became any day in the next two weeks." Mikey muttered flatly. The headed back home. He picked up some McDonalds. That they had eaten on the way home. They entered the Subway station and headed back to their room.

Klunk's ears perked. She looked around nervously. "I feel like we're being…."

"Watched?" Donnie suddenly shouted surprising Mikey and Klunk into a Rock and his shell respectively. When he shone a huge Spotlight on them.

"And where have You two been!?" Shelldon growled.

"Out for McDonalds?" Mikey suggested. Nervously poking his head out.

"A Likely though true story!" Donnie growled. "But that is not what Security Footage, and my Trackers say!" he declared showing Mikey's vitals spiking at points probably when he was talking to Jayce. Then it showed the Security Footage of their meeting in the park.

"Oh Boy…." Mikey muttered.

"How could you Micheal!?" Donnie asked dramatically though hurt! "After everything those Fiends have put us through! You Fraternize with one of them! And behind MY Back no less!" Donnie roared angrily.

Shelldon flew up to them with large speakers out on his back. He was playing the world's smallest violin song from Spongebob playing right near them. "Really Shelldon?" Klunk asked flatly.

"Yes really! You Fraternizers!" Shelldon growled. Pressing his nose against hers.

"Okay, okay! You caught us! Let me explain." Mikey said but Donnie cut him off.

"How long was the Betrayal going on!?" he hissed.

"I didn't betray anyone!" Mikey snapped. "But to answer your question. Right around the time we found the new lair. And no one was really talking to me that night. So we both needed someone to vent too. I haven't told him anything about the Shredder of the fact we're Mutants and he doesn't know. As far as he knows. My name is Pablo and our old house was burnt down by an arson."

"Then he can never know!" Donnie immediately declared. "It's too dangerous! Kendra will use that information to get at me! And us!" he added.

"I didn't think of that…." Mikey muttered admittedly.

"Then we've reached an accord." Donnie said sinisterly as he and Shelldon both making they're watching gestures.

Mikey fell to his back feeling overly conflicted. "I need help!" he said immediately, rushing outside to find Krysta. Klunk, doing her best to keep up with him.

X X X

When he finally found her out of work. He noticed Krysta seemed to be trying not to cry. "Krysta?" Mikey asked.

"Oh Mikey!" she gasped trying to clean herself up. "Sorry it was smokey in the kitchen and I had to help put it out." She said.

"Hard day?" he asked sitting beside her.

"Yeah, what do ya need?" Krysta asked.

"Are you sure? I can come back." Mikey said.

"No let me help you! I know things are hard at home right now." Krysta assured gesturing for him to sit.

Klunk jumped up onto her lap. "Well it has more to do with outside." Mikey sighed as he explained everything. About Jayce.

"I'm kind of with Donnie here. Why would you even want to try to be friends with one of them." Krysta asked with an arched eyebrow.

"Because Jayce is hurting and he's alone. And he doesn't have anyone to save him….He's like I was and would still be without Klunk. Maybe worse…." Mikey muttered.

Krysta's ears drooped as she looked at him look down sadly as Klunk nuzzled him. "I get it….Honestly I think you should tell then."

"You sure!?" Mikey asked.

"I'm sure Jayce would keep the secret especially to keep your friendship. Besides if you don't tell and it gets out on it's own. It'll blow up in our faces." Krysta pointed out.

"That's true!" Mikey groaned. "AUUUGGHHH! WHY IS THIS SO HARD!" he moaned hanging his head.

"It'll be okay." Krysta promised, rubbing his back. Feeling like a Hypocrite. She still couldn't let him know. That was she was feeling scared and of her relapsing.

X X X

Jeremy just let himself in as Jayce looked over from his laptop putting it away. "Come on, you didn't forget again, did you?" He asked Jayce.

"Of course I didn't." Jayce said quickly trying to keep his stutter in check. He followed Jeremy behind to go in Kendra's time. The only time he was ever allowed in her room was when they were scheming. It used to be that they'd figure out how to test their skills against Tech companies and steal new upgrades for themselves. Jayce was confident he could write software to out pace all of them. But Kendra just believed he was useless at everything. And it felt like her forcing him to make Robots reinforced this.

"Okay I'm thinking this time. We mess up Donnie's tech for good!" Once he corrupt all his data even his stupid little AI he'll never be able to make anything again."

"That seems a bit extreme…." Jayce said only for Kendra to glare at him. "O…or….o…rrr. I could make some-"

"No, you're not! Software made by you would just fuck everything up! Stop butting you're your square eyes." She said flicking his glasses off to emphasize her point. "And just do as your told!" she snapped.

Jayce got quiet and nodded. But when he saw his chance he slipped out and began texting Mikey for help.

X X X

Mikey just sat on the recliner rocking back and forth trying to think of what to do as Mind Donnie appeared. "Remember! You must never tell him!"

Then Mind Krysta appeared. "No! You have to it's better this way! Tell!"

"Don't tell!" Mind Donnie shouted.

"Tell!" Mind Krysta shouted.

"Stop telling him to tell!" Mind Donnie snapped at Mind Krysta.

"Stop telling him not to tell!" Mind Krysta snapped back as they began wildly poking at each other screaming wildly as Mikey held his head in frustration.

It was then that he got a familiar text tone. Mikey yelped and looked at his phone. The minute he saw Jayce needing help. His mind spiraled. Ringing in his ears. His vision blurring immediately. As his chest crumpled he was unable to breathe. He just heard his own rapid wheezing. Klunk screaming in the distance. He then felt hands on his face as he was made to look at his father.

"Breathe…..Mikey….slowly….." he could just hear.

Mikey obeyed. Trying to slow his breathing as much as he could. He felt Klunk purring on his neck as his arms were rubbed. "Just breathe my son. You are home. You are safe." Splinter assured. Mikey finally calmed down taking a deep breath as he centered himself before his eyes welled up with tears.

"I'm sorry…." Mikey whimpered.

"Was it Draxum again?" Splinter asked worriedly.

"No! Something else." Mikey sighed explaining the situation for the third time today. Splinter nodded eating a bit of Popcorn he had nearby while listening. "I don't know what to do they're both right! But I don't want to hurt Jayce either way. He's my friend and I want to help him. But either way could make everything worse."

"That is truly a dilemma." Splinter said immediately going through a bunch of his movie notes. "Ahh here!" he said clearing his throat. "You should do what is best in your Heart."

"You've been watching the original Teen Titans?" Klunk asked from his head. Splinter immediately and spastically threw her off his head yelping. "Uh n..no!" he stuttered. "Also didn't conclude there was only that one show."

"Yeah, I guess so." Klunk hummed. Mikey was rubbing his chin about this thoughtfully. As for Jayce he had immediately come to a conclusion.

"I'm going to tell Jayce. He deserves to know the truth. Right now we've gotta help him with Kendra. Then right after." He said rushing to his room. As Splinter sputtered.

"Wait what!?" he said looking around.

X X X

Klunk had become a bucket hat as Mikey had taken off rushing towards. The Address that Jayce had given him. "just let yourself In no one will know."

"Ominous." Klunk muttered.

"He did say his parents were workaholics. That's probably how." Mikey replied. They soon arrived at the Duplex. Mikey tried the handle, it was locked. As he entered, he immediately saw a Black man rush by with a bunch of Papers. Almost mowing down Mikey as he quickly moved out of the way. He turned to see an Asian Woman on a Zoom call with a bunch of other people. He then heard some slight yelling upstairs.

Unable to really thing about the situation now. Mikey immediately took off. Towards the rooms upstairs it didn't take him long to track down the trio. "Excuse me!" Mikey barked getting their attention when he found Kendra towering over Jayce who was cowering.

"Pablo!" Jayce smiled as Kendra looked over at him raising an eyebrow.

"Yeah, you would have a friend named Pablo." She somewhat sneered.

"I don't make fun of you. And I could." Mikey replied coolly. "What you need to do is back off your brother!" he growled unaware he was being scanned by Tempestra who was getting very suspicious.

"His Voice matches one of the turtles." She thought to herself scanning 'Pablo' over until she noted the broach on his left breast.

"What does it matter to you. What I make him do?!" Kendra spat.

Mikey glared back. "You keep setting him up to take your anger out on him it's not right! Also, he's my-"

Tempestra tackled him aiming right in the broach activating it causing Mikey to change back. As Klunk rolled off him surprised into her normal form. Mikey yelped and went for the broach only to find Tempestra had it now.

"Well, that's interesting!" the Female AI growled.

"It's one of those Turtles!" Jeremy gasped in surprise. Jayce looked at Mikey who looked back both horrified.

"No! You weren't-" Mikey began but Jayce roared uncharacteristically cutting him off.

"CAN YOU TWO-FACED FREAK!" Jayce snarled. Tears welled up in his eyes. "You did all this just to screw with me! Didn't you!?"

"NO! No! It's not like that at all. I just….I didn't know if could ever tell you the truth. I was-"

"Save it!" Jayce growled. "I'm so stupid! I can't believe I was stupid enough to believe anyone would be my friend!" he shouted running off.

"I am your friend!" Mikey shouted, jumping up and rushing after him Klunk at his heels. But Jayce was already out the door. Mikey jumped over the stairs onto the ground in an attempt to catch up. "Jason!" Mikey cried. But was already gone. And the two of them. Were then trapped in a prison orb not unlike Donnie's.

"Do you even have an original thought in your head?!" Mikey growled as Kendra waltzed over smugly with Tempestra who was looking proud of herself.

"How's this for original? You're going to bait to lure in Othello Ryan and the rest of your little friends and family." Kendra sneered.

"And that's the furthest thing from original." Mikey replied flatly.

"What about Jayce?" Jeremy asked.

"Who cares. I've got an email to send." Kenda chuckled.

As Mikey watched the three laugh. He immediately tried to text Leo. But he found inside the Orb his phone has no service. "Uh oh…"

"Where is Mikey?" Splinter asked looking around as Krysta came in. "Is Orange with you!?" he asked her quickly.

"He was but that was hours ago. Is he okay?"

"I just got an Email from Kendra! The Purple Dragon's have Mikey!" Donnie screamed. Showing the phone as Shelldon, Lizzie, Leo and Raph immediately looked up from what they were doing. And rushed over. "HE DID THE EXACT THING! I TOLD HIM NOT TO DO! HOW!? WHY?!"

Krysta and Splinter looked at each other then looked away whistling nervously. But that wasn't enough to throw Donnie off his trail. "YOU TWO! HE SNARLED IN BETRAYAL! YOU ENCOURAGED HIM TO TELL JASON THE TRUTH!"

"Only because it was going to blow up on us later." Krysta defended.

"Telling him as caused it to blow up now!" Donnie barked.

"Not telling him would've made it blow up worse!" Krysta growled pressing her head against his.

"ENOUGH!" Splinter shouted, splitting them apart. "You're both right! But right now, we need to get Mikey back!"

"Donnie, do you have him on the Tracker?" Raph asked.

"Yup! Now lets hurry!" He said as they all followed Donnie out.

"Poor Jayce!" Mikey sighed. "He must think he'll never have friends."

"I think Krysta ended up being more right. Honestly." Klunk sighed. "But we've gotta get out of here! Maybe once we do and take care of the other Purple Dragons, we can find him."

"Yeah, maybe." Mikey replied as he looked around the orb. He leaned into the side and felt it move. He gasped. "I've got an idea help me roll!" he said as he pulled himself up to all fours. Klunk getting under him as Mikey began to move on all fours. He managed to roll out of the room.

"It's working it's working!" Mikey said as he rushed towards the staircase. "oh no!"

"BAD!" Klunk yelped as they began flying down the stairs rolling down as fast as they would go.

As Donnie and the group arrived at where the tracer was. They suddenly heard a trio of laughter and looked up standing above them with Jet packs. "Well, Othello Van Ryan we meet again. And you brought the whole family! Now they can all watch you fail."

"Where is Mikey?" Donnie growled.

"Now hold on! You don't get him back without allowing us to nuke your Tech forever!" Kendra shouted laughing Maniacally as everyone gaped. However they suddenly heard Mikey and Klunk screaming as they landed between the two group.

"WHAT HOW!?" Kendra screamed.

"We forgot to lock down the Orb. Usually Jayce remembers that stuff." Jeremy pointed out.

"AND HE'S NOT HERE FOR ME TO TAKE IT OUT ON!" Kendra shouted.

"Why do you have to treat poor Jayce like he's the root of all your problems?" Lizzie asked coldly.

"Because she can't feal with her emotional constipation like an adult! And decides to be a bully instead!" Mikey growled as Leo helped him out.

Kendra let out a tch sounds before pressing a button on her watched that had Tempestra grow around her and become something of a battle suit as Donnie summoned Shelldon's battle body as they were suddenly swarmed by a bunch more battle robots. That were looking more like Shelldon.

"Looks like she's deduced more of the data she stole from me!" Shelldon growled as Kendra rushed towards Donnie. He yelped as she tackled him down. However, he ushed large mystic tech arms to throw her off.

"Hot soup!" Splinter shouted as he used the Macho Gazpacho fury kick to knock several away. Krysta and Mikey teamed up with their own combo. Splinter gasped in awe when he saw the two opposites combined and break away most of the robots.

Klunk crushed several away with a smithy hammer. Before turning into an electric ball that zapped the others that came at her.

Leo meanwhile, had slashed through several more again. However, he was sent flying into the air by Tempestra's rocket fist that knocked him into Raph.

Raph caught him only to see Jeremy jumping up with his Jet pack. And the hammer extension of his Tech bo. Raph used his Avatar's arm to grab it and shaking wildly. Jeremy went flying off as Raph quickly broke the Tech bo.

Donnie and Shelldon were trading blows constantly with Kendra and Tempestra. Shelldon landed a spinning kick in their faces. As Donnie circled around.

"Fibbonaci!" Donnie shouted slamming the mystic and tech combo fist into Kendra's side. She went spinning in a cartwheel through the air. Fortunately thanks to Tempestra she was able to expertly grab onto the nearby lamp post and swing around a few times. She then rushed forward with a flying kick however Lizzie threw her Makibishi.

She blocked them with a swing shield before unleashing a bunch of Wing Blades at Donnie and Lizzie. They yelped and dodged. However Mikey had thrown Leo into the air.

"Whip-O-Rama!" Mikey shouted as he flew Leo into the air. Unleashing flames that didn't harm his siblings but destroyed some of the wing blades.

"Katana Bomb!" Leo shouted landing on the rest before swinging around when he landed with 'Whaaa.' Hitting Kendra with a follow up Kick.

"Jeremy get over here!" Kendra growled.

"I'm coming!" Jeremy called with some robot gloves. But then one of the Makibishi beamed him in the end. Wide ended up. But he instantly fell asleep and curled up on the ground.

"AHHHG!" Kendra snarled as she unleashed a bunch of lasers at the group keeping everyone pinned as she laughed.

Everyone was hiding as Leo peeked out with Mikey Krysta and Klunk.

"Do you guys think you can short circuit her?" Leo suggested.

"Yeah!" The three replied getting an idea. Klunk turned into a Hydrant and Fire Hose. While Mikey and Krysta combined their powers causing both a shower and surge of water to hit both Kendra and Tempestra. Who had to let go of Kendra to avoid electrocuting her but was down and out.

Everyone sighed in relief. "Hey you two, okay? Mikey I'm sorry. I put the idea in your head." Krysta muttered sadly as Leo and Donnie looked Mikey over.

"No, you both were right. There was no wrong answer this time. I just felt like he deserved the truth." Mikey sighed. "But we've gotta fix it now! I'm going to find Jayce."

"No Mikey leave him!" Raph ordered. "He-"

"It was all Kendra and Jeremy Raph! He was gone before they even grabbed me! He called me for help. Because Kendra was gonna force him to do something he's not good at."

"He's still a member of the Purple Dragons." Donnie argued.

"We'll see about that. I'm gonna convince him to quit." Mikey growled mostly to himself.

"Mikey!"

"I bet I could portal to him." Leo suggested.

"Thanks Leo, we can try but he knows a little bit about your portals." Mikey warned. "He's ranted to me about us…about Kendra….about the past year and a half. It's been so hard for him." He muttered sadly.

X X X

All the tears left over from the past year were flowing freely now. Jayce had blocked Mikey on all Social Media before curling up. Watching his watch for energy readings. He was also good at Accessories. The only time Kendra praised him was when he copied Shelldon and the Tech-Bo.

He was sick! Sick of it all. He only saw one way out. He pulled out the Card Xever had given him. And began to dial the number on it.

Gotta buff the outline guys!
