*Third Person's P.O.V.*

It was night, and Splinter was in his bed sleeping peacefully when the Nightmare King, Pitch Black came in the room through a shadow. The Boogeyman smirked evilly down at the mutant rat as he took a step closer. "So this is the famous Master Splinter, the Sensei and father of the Mutant Ninja Turtles." Pitch said with his evil smirk. "Looks like he's sleeping peacefully." He said in thought before smirking again evilly. "I'll just have to fix that!" He said and sprinkled black sand over Splinter before disappearing with an evil laugh.

*Splinter's Dream*

The Turtles, Izzy and Jack were moving around in fog, into an alley before placing their back against the wall. "Shredder could be anywhere. Stay frosty guys." Leo said before flinching when Jack shot him an offensive look. "No offense Jack." He quickly added, making the Winter Spirit roll his eyes before he groaned in annoyance when the Purple Mask Turtle started speaking. "FYI: Frost can't accumulate unless it's below freezing, except during a process called-"

"Maybe he's got an off-switch somewhere." Mikey said to the twins while Donnie continued speaking. Izzy smirked at her little brother before Raph raised his hand up and hit Donnie behind the head. Donnie immediately stopped his talking and screamed in pain before turning around and glared at the red masked turtle. "Found it!" Raph said proudly while Mikey, Izzy and Jack chuckled in amusement. But their laughter soon when they heard the Shredder's voice.

"And I've found four pathetic turtles and two teenagers with only seconds to live."

"Wouldn't wanna be them." Mikey said with an innocent smile before his siblings and friend jumped into battle stance with their weapons out. "We are them." Izzy said with a glared as she stood ready with her kama in hands. Mikey nervously backs away slowly as he took out his nunchucks before Shredder suddenly appeared behind him and pulled him into the fog. Mikey screamed and dropped his nunchucks, which rolled over to Donnie, getting his attention.

"Mikey!" Donnie cried out after turning around when he saw his little brother's nunchucks laying next to his foot. The teenagers and other turtles turned around when they heard Donnie's cry, and saw Shredder standing where the orange masked turtles used to stand. Donnie charged towards the Shredder with his bo-staff, but Shredder destroyed the weapon before it could hit him. Shredder then moved forward and kicked Donnie in the back, sending him into the fog.

"Donnie!" Jack cried out before charging at the Shredder. But before he could shoot ice at Shredder, Shredder slashed his blades down and destroyed Jack's staff. Jack grunted in pain when he felt his staff break and bended down slightly as he held his chest in pain. Unfortunately, when the Winter Spirit bended down, Shredder slashed his claws against Jack's chest, sending the Guardian of Fun down.

"JACK!" Izzy screamed in both pain and in anger when she saw her boyfriend fall down after getting slashed. Raph and Leo death glared at the Shredder with their sister before charging at him to avenge their brothers and friend. "Twins, take him down!" Leo ordered before the three of them charged at Shredder. Izzy and Leo attacked Shredder while Raph run up a wall, on the side before jumping down with his sai ready to stab the Shredder, after Shredder kicked Leo and Izzy away.

But before Raph could stab Shredder, Shredder punched Raph multiple times in the chest before punching one final punch, sending Raph screaming into the fog. Both Leo and Izzy run after to grab their brother, but it was too late after he got lost into the fog. "No!" Leo cried out as he and Izzy stopped running. Before Izzy could even start crying about losing her brothers, her twin and boyfriend, Shredder showed up behind her and stabbed her.

Leo turned around when he heard his sister grunt in pain before his eyes widen when he saw that Shredder has stabbed his sister. "Izzy!" He cried out, but before he could try to safe her, Shredder punched Leo into the wall. "There is no place you can run, no place you can hide, where I will not find you!" Shredder said as Leo stood up and looked up to Shredder with fear. "You think you are ready to face me?" Shredder finished slashing his blades down. Leo screamed in fear before Shredder's blades killed him.

*End of nightmare*

"No!" Splinter screamed before sitting up as he woke up from his dream. He panted deeply as he tried to breath while his heart beat wildly in his chest from fear. When his heart finally calmed down, he heard his daughter's boyfriend's voice. "Hey guys! You ready for patrol?" Jack asked as he flew into the Lair. Splinter immediately got out of his bed and went to the living room where his children and their friend were.

"Come on!" Raph said as he picked up his sai and placed it behind his shell before he, his siblings and Jack headed towards the exit. "Where are you going?" Splinter's voice boomed out as he entered the living room, stopping all the teenagers. "Heading out for our evening patrol." Leo answered as he and the others turned to face Splinter. "There will be no patrol!" Splinter said strictly with a glare, making all the teenagers frown in confusion.

"Sensei?" Leo asked in confusion. "Last time you fought the Shredder, you barely escaped with your lives." Splinter said as he walked closer. "But, Sensei, next time, we'll be ready." Raph said with a small smirk, while Izzy nodded in agreement. "Yes!" Splinter said before grabbing Raph by the arm and held his arm behind his shell. "Because you will stay down here until you are ready! No patrol, no games, no rest! There is only training!" Splinter said before pushing Raph back to his siblings and friend. "Starting now!" Splinter added before moving to the dojo.

*Izzy's P.O.V.*

"More, Sensei?" Mikey asked, out of breath while we all breathed deeply, tired from the all night training. "Yes, more!" Sensei ordered, making us all groan before Mikey, Donnie and Jack charged at Leo, Raph and I. Leo grabbed Donnie, Raph grabbed Mikey and I grabbed Jack and we flipped them over our shoulders. "There is no intention in your strikes! Do it again!" I mentally groaned as I listened to Sensei drill us. "We will practice all night if we have to!"

"We have been practicing all night!" Donnie complained as he and Jack got back on their feet. "And morning so far." Jack groaned under his breath. Before Sensei could say something, a snore caught our attention. We all looked down and saw Mikey sleeping on the floor. "Lucky!" I moaned as I looked down at him in jealously. "Pizza, mmm." Mikey said in his sleep with a smile.

"Wake him up!" Sensei ordered with a glare. Raph smirked happily at the order and cracked his knuckles. "Gladly." He said and picked Mikey up and flipped him over, waking Mikey up immediately. "Ahh! Shredder's here!" Mikey screamed and pointed to a direction after he sat up straight. "Relax. You were just having a nightmare." Leo said with a gentle smile as he laid his hand on Mikey's shoulder. "Aren't we all?" Both Raph and I groaned, getting a nod of agreement from Jack.

"Sensei, can we rest for a sec?" Donnie asked as he raised his hand up in question. "Rest? Hmm, the Shredder will not rest until you are all dead!" Sensei exclaimed in anger as he glared at us all. "Sensei, we've been training nonstop for weeks with hardly any sleep. They need a break." Leo said as he took a step closer to Sensei. "Oh, like you don't?" Raph asked as he took a step closer to Leo with a glare.

"Guys, please don't start now! I'm to tired for this!" I begged, but my leader and twin just ignored me. "That's right, Raph. I don't." Leo said with his own glare. "Ah, well, then, I'll give you a break." Raph said and raised his fist up. "Guys! Knock it off!" Jack said as he shook his head at them with a slight glare, but they just ignored him. Before they could start fighting each other, Sensei did some kind of punch that send us all flying before we all landed with a painful groan.

"If I were the Shredder, none of you would be breathing right now. Understand?" Sensei asked as we sat up. But not long after Sensei spoke, Mikey fell against Leo's shoulder and he was sleeping again. "Perhaps a brief rest is in order. We will resume later." Sensei said and left the dojo. The second he was out, we all fell down and were instantly asleep.

***

Leo, Raph and I were taking our breaks in the living room while Donnie took it in his lab, and Mikey most likely in the kitchen. Jack on the other hand took his break as his chance to get out of the Lair and spread winter, as well as checking on Blizzard at the North Pole. Leo was practicing with his katana blades while Raph and I were bonding with our pets, Spike and Blaze by feeding them their favorite food, leaves and chilies.

"The Panicons hit me with an anxiety ray! Ahh! Ohh! We're all gonna die! And I think I left the food replicator on! The ship might burn down!" Leo immediately stopped working with his katanas when he heard Captain Ryan's voice and watched Space Heroes. I rolled my eyes as the showed played on the TV and shook my head before feeding Blaze her last chili. "Get it together, Captain! You're our leader, so act like one!" One of the characters said to Captain Ryan.

Before I could roll my eyes again, they widen in surprise when Captain Ryan slapped himself in the face twice. "Did not see that coming." I said to Blaze, getting a yip of agreement from her on my shoulder. "I'm sorry, Grundch. That was the anxiety ray talking. I've got it. I'll use the thermal charge." Captain Ryan said and threw some grenade thing at a giant robot. Before Leo could see what would happen next, a ninja flew past him, into the off button of the TV.

"What?" Leo exclaimed before looking over his shoulder with a glare and saw Raph smirking with Spike on his shoulder. "Hey, what are you doing?" Leo asked him. "Oh, sorry. It was Spike's idea. He said Space Heroes is too stupid for him and Blaze." Raph answered with a smirk. Blaze yipped in agreement, making me chuckle softly at the baby phoenix.

"That's saying something, considering they hang out with you all day." Leo said and placed his katanas back in their holders on his shell. The second Leo said it, Spike climbed off Raph's shoulder and walked towards his plate of leaves while Blaze covered her face with her wing before turning around and tried to hide herself in my neck. Raph looked to our pets in surprise at their actions before looking back to Leo and glared.

"Nice going, Leo. You made them angry!" Raph said as he stood up with a glare. "So I'm gonna mop the floor with your face!" He said as he marched over to Leo and pointed at his face. Leo glared back at Raph before pushing his hand out of his face. "All right, Raph. Cool off." He said to Raph, making the red masked turtle growl in anger. "I can help with that!" Mikey suddenly screamed before a water balloon hit Raph right in the face.

Blaze squeaked in surprise when she heard the pop and saw the water. Being a bird that bursts into fire, she is very careful around water. I calmed her down with my hand while looking over to Mikey who was jumping around in victory with a water balloon in each hand. "Doctor Prank-enstein strikes again!" Mikey said cheerfully as he danced in victory. Raph stood in front of Mikey breathing heavily in anger, ready to blow.

"Dude, you should see your face right now. You look so mad!" Mikey said with a big smile. "Okay, Spike and Blaze. You'll like this show." Raph said as he looked over his shoulder at our pets before looking back to Mikey, cracking his knuckles as he continues speaking. "It's called 'Does Mikey bend that way?'" Mikey's eyes widen in fear before he started running away in fear while screaming. "Come here, you!" Raph yelled out as he chased after Mikey before tackling him and beat him up.

Just as Raph tackled Mikey, Jack entered the Lair with Blizzard. "Hey guys!" Jack said as he walked over to me with Blizzard running next to him. As they walked over, they both stopped when they heard a crash and looked towards the area where it came from, and saw Raph beating Mikey. "Does Mikey bend that way?" Jack asked as he watched them with a neutral expression, already used to seeing Raph beating Mikey like the rest of us. "Yep!" Both Leo and I answered as we watched as well.

The Winter Spirit just shrugged before he continued walking over to me with Blizzard next to him. "Rather him than me." He joked before stopping in front of me. "Hey Snowflake!" Jack said as he bended down and kissed me on the lips. I quickly kissed him back before smiling to him as he sat down next to me. "Hey Jack!" I said with a bright smile as I cuddled into his side as he wrapped his arm around me.

"How was your day?" He asked me while Blizzard hopped over to Blaze. "Better now, now that you are here." I answered as we watched Blaze and Blizzard play with each other. "That's good to hear." Jack said with a playful smirk before kissing me on the side of my forehead, making me blush and smile brightly at him before turning my head to face him and kissed him again on the lips. "Can you guys not smooch in front of me?" Leo asked suddenly, interrupting our kiss.

Jack rolled his eyes while I shot our 'Fearless Leader' a glare. "Nobody told you to watch." I said with a glare, making Leo shake his head at me as he crossed his arms. "Kind of hard when you're kissing in front of me." He said, making both Jack and I roll our eyes. "And once again, you show us why we call you Lame-O-Nardo." Jack said with an annoyed expression, which earned him a death glare from the very person he just spoke to.

***

After 'Does Mikey bend that way?', we went to Donnie's lab to see what he's doing. "You're still working on that go-kart?" Raph asked with a slight frown when we saw that Donnie was using a blowtorch on the go-kart. "It's not a go-kart. It's an all-terrain patrol buggy with detachable sidecars." Donnie said as he lifted his helmet up and stood up before he showed us the blueprints of his project.

"Dude, hasn't Splinter been riding us hard enough? You gotta find a way to relax." Mikey said while Leo took the blueprints and checked them out. "We all deal with stress in different ways, Mikey." Leo said to our youngest brother. "Yeah, and this is how I deal." Donnie said as he pointed his thumb at himself. "And this is how I deal." Mikey said and threw a water balloon at Leo.

Leo ducked when he saw the water balloon. Instead of hitting the Leader in Blue, it hit Donnie right in the face. Donnie shot Mikey a glare before he threw his helmet to the floor and started chasing Mikey. "You're next, Leo and Winter Couple! Doctor Prank-enstein makes house calls!" Mikey called out to us as he ran away from Donnie before screaming as he and Donnie exited the lab.

"Better watch my back if Mikey's gonna throw a water balloon at me." Jack said as he leaned against his staff. Leo shook his head while Raph huffed in agreement. "What would happen anyway if you get hit by a water balloon anyway?" Raph asked as he looked to my boyfriend in question. Jack thought about it for a moment before shrugging. "I don't know, I've never been hit by a water balloon before." He answered, making me frown as theories of what could happen ran through my head.

"Let's just hope that nothing happens, and if something does happen, it better not be in the face." I said and started exiting the lab. Jack chuckled at my comment as he, Leo and Raph followed behind me. "What? You gonna miss my handsome face?" Jack asked with a smirk as he walked next to me and wrapped his arm around my shoulders. I smirked back before shrugging slightly. "That and I won't be able to kiss you if your lips are frozen shut."

Jack froze in his step, while Leo, Raph and I continued walking while laughing at the Winter Spirit's shocked expression. "You guys know where he keeps his water balloons by any chance?" He asked before he run after us to catch up. That question only made the three of us laugh even more, which made the Winter Spirit look to us with even more worry.

***

We were back in the dojo, and we were training on our own, no Sensei this time. Luckily. "Hoko no kamae." Leo ordered and got in that stance. Mikey and Donnie got into the stance, but Jack, Raph and I just stared at them with our arms crossed. "Jack, Twins, hoko no kamae!" Leo snapped as he gave us a pointed glare. "Hoko no way. It's bad enough Splinter's driving us into the ground. Now you too?" Raph said with a glare as he pointed at Leo before crossing his arms again.

"Yeah! Some of us are still tired from previous training with Master Splinter!" I said, getting a nod from agreement from Jack who leaned against his staff. "We have to keep training, because, right now, we don't stand a chance against Shredder." Leo said as he got out off the stance, which Mikey and Donnie followed. "Yeah, and he's up there somewhere waiting for us!" Mikey said with a spooky voice, before jumping in fright and shook. "I just freaked myself out!" He said as he shook.

Both Jack and I rolled our eyes at Mikey while the other 3 looked to him with a neutral stare. "I hate to say it, but the fact that we've been laying low might be the only reason we're still alive." Donnie said with a slight sad frown. "Exactly, so until we're ready, we stay down here." Leo said, making me sigh in sadness before suddenly turning around when I heard my best friend's voice. "Unfortunately, that's not an option." April said and showed us her phone.

We all, Sensei included, went to the living room and listened to the conversation the Purple Dragons were having on April's phone. April was able to trick the Purple Dragons by taking a box pizza from her that had a burn phone under box. As long as the box is close to them, we can hear every conversation they make.

"We're meeting Shredder tonight. He's got a plan to destroy the turtles." Fong's voice came out of the phone as we all listened. "How? He doesn't even know where they are." Sid asked while we all frowned at the phone. "He says they're in the sewers somewhere, and that's all he needs to know to wipe them out." Fong answered, making Jack and I looked to each other in worry before looking to Sensei when he stepped closer to us.

"Our home is no longer safe. The Shredder must be stopped." Sensei said as we all looked up to him. "How can we stop a plan we don't even know?" Leo asked as he stood up before throwing a knife to Mikey's hand, popping the water balloon in his hand. Mikey whimpered for getting caught and for losing his water balloon. Jack and I chuckled softly before getting serious again when Raph stood up and spoke. "We have to go topside, and find out what they're planning."

"Raph's right. There's no other way." Leo said, making us all nod before we stood up to get ready. But when I got up, something suddenly hit my head, and my face and hair, was soaking wet. "Booyakasha! Doctor Prank-enstein strikes again!" Mikey cheered and did a victory dance. "You're so dead!" I yelled out as my eyes changed into wolf eyes, telling everyone that I'm on wolf mode. Mikey's eyes widen in fear before he started running and screaming away in fear as I chased after him.

***

We went topside and allowed the Purple Dragons to where the meeting is going to take place. "This is the place." Leo whispered to us and we all walked over to see the building. But to see the building and not be seen, we had to huddle close together by the wall. "Donnie, Jack, you're crowding me." Raph said over his shoulder when he felt Donnie and Jack against his shell. Understanding, Jack moved to stand behind me while Donnie apologized and took a step back.

But when he took a step back, his shell hit a trash can behind us, which scared Mikey. Mikey jumped with a yelp, which caused his shell to accidently knock into Raph's chin. Raph glared at Mikey as he rubbed his chin. "Sorry." Mikey apologized when he saw us all frown at him in question while Raph still glared. "All that Splinter talk about how we're not ready has me thinking, maybe we're in over our heads." He added before groaning when Raph punched him right on top of his head.

"You're always in over your head." Raph said with his glare. "I'm saying now we all are!" Mikey said as he rubbed his head. "And that scares me." He added with a whimper. "It's okay to be scared, Mikey. The Twins are scared, too." Leo said as he laid a gentle hand on Mikey's shoulder. "We are not scared." Both Raph and I said with a glare. We then looked back to the building, inspecting it when something suddenly touched my neck.

I jumped with a scream and turned around to see what touched me. As I did that, I noticed that my twin has also jumped in fright. When we saw nothing behind us, we quickly calmed down and faked coughed, acting as if nothing happened. Leo and Jack chuckled at us with a smirk, which told us they were the ones who touched us to scare us. Both Raph and I growled at them in anger when we suddenly heard a really scary animalistic growl.

We all looked to where the sound came from with wide eyes, when we saw a huge husky dog mutant standing in front of us. "You should be." It growled at us with an angry glare. "Bradford!" I exclaimed in shock while Mikey screamed, "Rad-Brad!" We stared at my now mutant uncle with eyes wide with fear at his size. "Look what I found. Four soon-to-be-ex-turtles and a crushed niece." Bradford said with a growl, making me growl back as my eyes flashed into wolf eyes.

"I'm sure glad it's okay to be scared." Mikey said with a scared voice. "You and me both." Donnie said with the same voice tone. "This is no time to panic." Leo said and took out his katana blades, but then Bradford stood up straight, showing us how big he really is. "You sure about that Leo?" I asked as I continued glaring with my wolf eyes. "Okay, maybe a little." Leo quickly added nervously while the rest of us took out our weapons.

"And I thought Bunny was the biggest animal I know." Jack said as he readied his staff while the mutant dog walked closer and closer to us. "Not anymore." I said as I stood ready with my kama in my hands. As Bradford walked closer, I noticed that his left arm was bigger than the right, and that it had long sharp claws that was scratching the ground as he walked.

"He keeps getting taller!" Mikey exclaimed scared with wide eyes while we all glared at the mutant dog. "Then I'll cut him down to size." Leo said before jumping forward and attacked Bradford, but Bradford just blocked his attack and almost crushed Leo into the ground with his huge left arm. Leo quickly jumped away and back flipped back to us. "Uh, let's stick together on this one." Leo said before we all jumped to different directions when Bradford went to punch us all in one place.

Raph went and tried to stab Bradford, but his sai was block by Bradford's right hand, which was rock solid. While he was distracted by Raph, Donnie run up to Bradford and hit him under the chin with the bo-staff. Bradford grunted in pain before he tried to punch them with the big arm, but they both quickly jumped away before they could get hit. Leo charged and jumped up and tried to stab him in the head, but Bradford caught Leo's blades with his solid hand between the fingers.

Bradford lifted Leo up and went to stab him with his claws, but Leo quickly got out of Bradford's grip and jumped away before he could get stabbed. I then jumped in and tried stab him in the face with my kama, but he blocked the attack with the solid hand. Before he could hit me with the big hand, Jack shot ice under Bradford's feet, catching mutant dog by surprise. While he was distracted, I kicked him in the chest and jumped away. Bradford slipped a bit on the ice, but not enough to fall.

Mikey then used his nunchucks to zipline on a telephone line to Bradford and tried to kick him in the face, but Bradford just slapped him away as if he's a fly. Mikey then crashed into Donnie and send them both to the ground. "This is hopeless!" I heard Donnie say and saw him and Mikey, who was rubbing his head, get back on their feet.

"Alright, that's it!" I snapped as I put my kama away. "I'm going wolf on his tail!" I exclaimed before turning into a wolf and attacked Bradford. "No! Wait! Izzy!" Jack called out to me but I just ignored him. I jumped up and tried to bite Bradford's neck, but he blocked me with his arm and went to hit me with the other, but I released his arm and jumped back before he could. He tried to hit me again when Jack shot ice at his eyes, blinding him momentarily.

"Keep your head in the game." Leo said to Donnie with a glare while Bradford wiped the ice away from his eyes. Bradford growled at me before he picked up a trashcan and threw it at me. "Izzy watch out!" Jack cried out to warn me. I quickly ducked down by laying down on my wolf stomach. But me ducking caused the trashcan to head straight at the guys. They all quickly jumped out of the way before getting their weapons ready again.

"I just want to keep my head on my body." Donnie snapped at Leo while I got ready to jump again. "Come on, what are we retreating for?" Raph asked before charging at Bradford while I jumped up and bit his ear. Bradford snarled out in pain while he blocked Raph's attacks with his solid hand. Raph went to stab Bradford in the face when the mutant dog grabbed me and ripped me right off his ear and threw me at Raph.

We crashed into each other and was send right into the dumpster. "That's a good reason." I groaned as I turned back to my human form. "Mikey, smoke!" Leo ordered Mikey, knowing that has the most ninja smoke bombs. Mikey took out a smoke bomb, but it slip out of his hands and cracked on the ground with a small purple smoke. We all looked to the cracked egg in disbelief before looking up to Mikey who stared at us with wide eyes.

"What was that?" Raph snapped at Mikey in disbelief. "I'm stressed! Excuse me if my aim's a little off!" Mikey snapped back with a glare. "How hard is it to hit the ground?" Raph said as he took out a smoke bomb and threw it. But when he threw it, it landed on a storm drain. My twin kneeled down to pick up the smoke bomb, but it slip through one the holes, down into the sewer. "Unbelievable!" I snapped while Jack facepalmed himself.

"Not so easy, is it?" Mikey said to Raph with a glare. "Oh, will you guys just-" Leo snapped with a glare, and was about to throw one of his smoke bombs, when Jack beat him to it. We all disappeared in purple smoke and reappeared on a roof. "Since when do you have ninja smoke bombs?" Donnie asked Jack with a frown. "I don't remember giving you any." "You didn't." Jack answered as he looked to Donnie with a proud smirk and showed us the smoke bombs that was in his hoodie's pocket.

"I swiped them off your desk when you weren't looking."

***

We returned back to the Lair and sat in the living room, pouting at our defeat. Sensei soon walked in the living room and saw our expressions. He looked down to Leo for an explanation. "We couldn't take him." Leo answered as he looked down in shame. "Dogpound was just too powerful." Mikey said with a sad expression. "Dogpound?" I asked with as we all frowned at the name. "What? 'Cause he's a dog, and he pounded us into the-" Mikey started to explain until Jack stopped him by saying, "We get it."

"I don't see how we're gonna get close to that meeting now." Leo said as he looked back down in shame. "Well, maybe we just need to find a new place to hide. I hear the sewers in Florida are nice this time of year." Donnie said and showed us a poster that said 'Florida' from his laptop. April then came over and sat down next to Donnie. "No, I'm not letting you guys give up." April said and shut Donnie's laptop before standing up and stood in the middle of the Livingroom. "I'll spy on the meeting."

We all answered her in objection. "No way!" Raph said with a glare. "Never!" I said with my own glare. "Nuh-uh!" Mikey said, also glaring and shook his head no. "You can't." Donnie said with a glare. "Forget it." Leo said with his own glare. "Not happening!" Jack said with a glare before Sensei spoke behind April with a booming voice. "Absolutely not!" April looked at us in shock for a moment before glaring back at us.

"I can do this." She said to us before looking over her shoulder at Sensei. "You've been training me to be a Kunoichi." She said to Splinter. "For a few weeks." Sensei said, making April sigh before looking back to us. "What choice do we have? Shredder's gonna attack your home, and we need to find out how, and I'm the only one who can do it." She said and finished with a small smile. We all looked to each other before looking to Sensei with April. Sensei sighed before crossing his arms.

Jack sighed before looking to April with a serious expression. You don't see that everyday. "If you do this, I'm going with you!" He said to her. April opened her mouth to either argue or objected, but stopped herself when Jack lifted his hand up, saying to stay quiet. "Shredder can see me, but after today, we all know that Dogpound still can't see me. If anything goes wrong on your mission, you'll need me as an escape plan."

Splinter nodded to Jack in agreement and looked down to April. "The only way I'm allowing this, is if Jack goes with you. You may have some training to be a kunoichi, but not enough to protect yourself against an army of ninjas. Jack will be able to protect you with his powers." April looked at Sensei for a moment before sighing and looked to Jack.

"Okay, you can tag along." Jack chuckled at her comment as he stood up with his staff in hand. "You say it as if you had a choice of allowing me to tag along." Jack said with a smirk. April just shot him a glare, which made the Winter Spirit chuckle again. "Come on! We need to get moving if we want to spy on the meeting on time." April said and moved towards the exit.

***

"I don't like this." Donnie said with his arms crossed as we stood on the roof of the building in front of Shredder's building, looking down at April and Jack as they walked towards the door with a box pizza in hand. "Me neither. Giving the enemy a free pizza? Pssh, never a good idea." Mikey said with his hands on his hips. "I feel like a terrible person." I said as I crossed my arms. "Why?" Raph asked as he frowned at me.

"Because I'm hoping that there isn't any Jack Frost believers inside that building!" I said, feeling even more guilty. "You're not a terrible person. You're just worrying about Jack." Leo said to me reassuringly before looking back to April and Jack. April stopped in front of the door and knocked, while Jack stood a few feet behind her. The door opened, and a Foot soldier looked down at April. "Hey, did somebody here order a totally delicious pizza?" April started talking in a fake boy voice before the ninja slammed the door in her face.

Jack and April flinched at the slam before they moved down the steps and behind an alley. "Looks like the Foot Clan are smarter than the Purple Dragons." April said to us through the phone. "I think they just don't like pizza." Jack joked, making me chuckle. "They'd almost have to be, wouldn't they? Thanks, April and Jack. You guys did your best." Leo said to April before we suddenly heard bells from a clock tower going off.

"At least we've still got the pizza." Mikey said cheerfully, making me roll my eyes while shaking my head at him. "Oh, I'm not done yet." April said suddenly before ending the call. "Wait, what is she doing?" Donnie asked in worry and looked down to spot April. We all looked down and saw April throwing away the pizza. "Not the pizza! She's gone rogue." Mikey said as he fell down to his knees. I rolled my eyes at Mikey again.

We all looked down and saw that April went to the building next to Shredder's building and was about to knock on the door, but was stopped by Jack. They started arguing with each other, but we couldn't hear what they were saying. "Izzy, call Jack and find out what's going." Donnie said to me in worry as he watched Jack and April. I raised my eyebrow at Donnie before looking to Leo, wanting his approval as the leader to call Jack. Leo nodded yes, which I returned before taking my T-Phone out and called Jack.

They stopped arguing with each other when they heard Jack's blue T-Phone going off. Jack showed her his phone's screen with a smirk, making the teenage red head roll her eyes in irritation. "Tell Donnie to stop worrying, I got her handled." He answered jokingly, making Donnie sigh in relief before we flinched when April started snapping at the Winter Spirit. "Handled? Handled! I'll show you handled Frostbite! I'm not a kid you can boss around!"

"Then stop acting like a kid!" Jack snapped, with a serious expression, surprising us and April. April blinked a few times before scoffing at Jack. "I'm not acting like a kid." She said and crossed her arms, making Jack roll his eyes at her. "Somebody stopping her feet for not getting her way and is arguing with her friend for stopping her from putting herself in danger, is not acting like a kid?" Jack asked with a raised eyebrow.

April stared at him for a moment before frowning and glared down at the ground. "I was just going to go in the building, jump over to the other building and sneak in to spy on Shredder." She said, making both Jack and I roll our eyes in frustration. "How do you expect to jump from one building to another?" I asked, reminding April and Jack that we can hear them arguing. "You and the guys do it all the time!" April said, making all turtles, Jack and I roll our eyes.

"We are trained ninjas April! We had years of training of how to move like ninjas!" I snapped, making April sigh in frustration and crossed her arms again. "Look, I get it April." Jack started speaking again to her. "You care about our friends and you want to help. But putting yourself in danger is not helping!" He said with a serious face expression. April stayed quiet for a moment before speaking again. "I won't be putting myself in danger if you fly me up."

Jack stared at her for a minute before groaning in frustration. "I'm going to regret this!" He muttered under his breath before ending our call. I sighed before putting my phone away and continued watching Jack and April. Jack picked April up and place her on his back before flying up. They flew over to Shredder's building and landed safely on the roof. April got off Jack's back and moved over to the windows, sneaking inside through a big hole in the window.

"She's so cool." Donnie said as he watched April in awe as she sneaked into Shredder's building with Jack. I rolled my eyes again before looking to Jack in worrying, silently praying that they both get out of there safely. We waited for a few minutes before April called Leo again. Leo answered immediately and we heard Shredder's voice through the phone, telling his evil plan. Unfortunately we didn't here the plan from the beginning, but from where he started listening was good enough.

"The chemical is extremely rare, so you will not have another chance." Shredder said, making us all frown as we listened. "Chemical? What chemical?" Raph asked with a glare, making both Leo and I flinch in frustration while we tried to continue listening to the meeting. "How about we listen and find out?" Donnie asked Raph in irritation, making me mentally groan at my brothers decision on to argue with each other.

"How about I break your shell on my knee?" Raph snapped at Donnie as they glared at each other, making me roll my eyes. "How about you two shut it for a minute while we try to hear Shredder's evil plan!" Leo snapped at them in anger. They both quite down and we started listening to Shredder again, but we were to late. "Which will destroy them once and for all. Now go." Shredder said as he finished his meeting.

"We missed it! Oh, great. Nice going, guys." Leo said to Raph and Donnie while I shook my head at them. "You guys really have bad timing on when to argue with each other!" I snapped at them. They both looked down in shame before Donnie jumped in worry. "We've gotta get April out!" He exclaimed and was about to jump over to get April out of Shredder's building. Luckily, Leo stopped him just time by grabbing Donnie's shoulder.

"No, if we rush in there, we put both her and Jack at risk. We wait." Leo said to Donnie. I could see that Donnie wanted to argue, but he stayed quiet and waited with us for Jack and April to get out. It wasn't long until we saw Jack flying out the building with April on his back. Both Donnie and I sighed in relief as we watched them land in an alley. After they landed, April hid behind the wall when Bradford and a few Foot soldiers walked past them.

"I'm gonna hitch a ride, see where they go." April suddenly said through the phone. "You can forget about it O'Neil! We have done enough!" Jack snapped at April with a glare. "Jack's right, you've done enough. Now both of you get out of there!" Leo ordered, but then we suddenly heard Bradford's growl through the phone. Easter Apples! "Bradford heard you! Jack! April! RUN!" Leo warned them before the five of us moved down the building to try and save them.

But when we got to the ground, we saw the black van moving away with Dogpound hanging on the side of the car. "No! We're too late!" Donnie said as we all watched the van move away in fear with April inside the van. "Guys, where's Jack?" I asked when I soon realized that Jack wasn't there. "Izzy!" I looked to Mikey when I heard him call me, and saw him holding Jack's staff. "He must have dropped it when they grabbed him." Mikey said as he handed me the staff.

"But how!?! Bradford isn't a believer! Jack isn't suppose to be seen by him or kidnapped!" I said as I slowly started to panic. "Shredder must have told Bradford about Jack." Raph said before laying his hand on my shoulder and gently squeezed it to comfort me. "Jack! April! Are you guys there?" Leo yelled through his T-Phone as he started to panic as well.

"They're not gonna answer, Leo. What do we do?" Donnie asked as we all looked to Leo for answers. "We gotta get Jack and April out of that van! But- but Dogpound's in there! And we're not ready to fight that guy! Aw, Splinter was right! We should've stayed below!" Leo exclaimed as he had a panic attack. I frowned at him in worry when Raph suddenly sighed in frustration. "Can't believe I'm gonna say this." Raph said, getting Leo's attention.

"Get it together, Captain. You're our leader! So act like one." My eyes widen in shock when I heard Raph quote one of Space Heroes lines. And just like that, Leo stopped panicking. "You're right, Raph. That was the anxiety ray talking." Leo said to Raph with a smirk. I blinked a few times in shock before shaking my head, snapping out of it. "Crikey! That actually worked!?!" I exclaimed shocked, while Raph smirked in amusement at me before looking back to Leo.

"What, that's it? You're not gonna slap yourself?" He asked with an amuse smirk. "Psst, let's save April." Leo said with a proud smirk. "And our home." Raph added, also with a proud smirk. "But we'll never catch him on foot." Donnie said, making a good point, but neither Raph or Leo stopped smirking. "We're not going on foot." Leo said, making me frown in confusion with Mikey and Donnie.

***

Before I knew it, we were riding after Dogpound with the Patrol Buggy. Raph and Leo were in the front, with Leo driving the Buggy, Mikey and Donnie in the back, and I was in the middle. "Yeah, this is Rad!" Mikey cheered, who was wearing an old pilot helmet, as we drove down the street. "It's not ready!" Donnie complained, who was wearing a hockey helmet, before we drifted around a corner. Mikey screamed and cheered in excitement as we drifted.

"This thing is awesome! Does it have a radio?" Mikey asked as he looked over my shoulder to see if there's a radio. "No, it doesn't have a radio!" Donnie snapped at Mikey before looking back at Leo. "I'm telling you it's not ready!" Leo, who was wearing a baseball helmet, moved the gear shifter and we started moving faster. "Seems ready to me. Whoa!" Leo said before the steering wheel suddenly came loose. He quickly attached the wheel back on its place and look to us.

"Eh, okay, don't pull on that, and we'll be fine." He said nervously as we all stared at him with wide eyes. "I feel so safe!" I said in sarcasm and rolled my eyes while wearing an open face motorcycle helmet. "You worry to much Izzy!" Raph said to me while wearing a football helmet. I rolled my eyes again as we continued driving until we saw Dogpound on a truck with a chemical tank in front of us. "Uh! I think Bradford want's to run us down!" I exclaimed when the tanker speeded up.

"Raph, get ready." Leo suddenly said when we saw the tanker heading right at us. "For what?" Raph asked as he and I frowned in confusion. "This!" Leo said and pulled a lever, and Raph and Mikey split away from us. Raph cried out in surprise while Mikey cheered in excitement before Raph quickly grabbed the steering wheel and started driving. After the buggy split in two, we all quickly moved out of the tanker's way before turning around and went after it.

"Leo! You could've been a little more specific!" Raph snapped at Leo when he caught up to us. "Where's the fun in that?" Leo asked with a smirk, making me laugh. Leo then stepped on it and made us go faster after the tanker. "Get ready!" Leo ordered us as we got closer to the tanker. "Chlorosulfonic acid?" I read out loud when I saw the word behind the tanker. I frowned after I read the word before my eyes widen in fear and looked to Donnie.

"Please tell me that isn't what I think it is!" I begged, but Donnie just shook his head. "I think it is." He said, making me groan in worry and frustration. "Leo, I think Izzy and I figured out Shredder's plan! That acid reacts violently with water!" Donnie said to Leo, catching the Leader in Blue in surprise. "So if he dumps it in the sewer..." Leo started of in realization. "It'll all be incinerated in seconds, including the lair!" I exclaimed with wide worried eyes.

"And Splinter! We gotta stop them." Leo said and drove even faster after the tanker. As we got closer, the van with Jack and April inside took a turn left. "Donnie! You and Raph stay with the van and save Jack and April! Mikey, you're coming with Izzy and I. We have to stop that tanker!" Leo ordered while driving. "Uh, if you haven't noticed, I'm stuck with Raph?" Mikey said as he frowned at Leo. "No problem." Raph suddenly said with a smirk.

Without warning, Raph pulled a lever and Mikey's sidecar split off Raph's. Mikey cried out in surprise before grabbing the side handles and started steering his sidecar. " Well, that was fun!" Raph admitted with a big smile. "Told ya!" Leo said with a big smile as well. Before Leo could, Donnie and I pulled our own levers, and our sidecars split away from Leo's. Donnie and I cheered before I grabbed my steering wheel and drove after Leo and Mikey, while Raph and Donnie went after the van.

"Mikey, Izzy, let's slow this thing down. Fire grappling hooks!" Leo ordered and fired his grappling hooks. "Got it!" I exclaimed as both Mikey and I shot our grappling hooks. The hooks hooked the tanker, but the ropes soon dethatched themselves from our sidecars. "Donnie did say they weren't ready!" Mikey exclaimed as we looked over to our leader. "I know!" Leo exclaimed with a groan of frustration before looking back to me.

"What mode do you have Izzy?" Leo asked me. I looked down to my right wrist and saw a surfing wave tattoo. "Water mode." I groaned before looking back in front of me. "You're kidding right?" Leo asked as he looked to me with wide eyes. "Yeah, I thought I should make a joke about being on water mode while we're going against flammable water chemical." I said sarcastically as we continued driving after Dogpound and the tanker.

"Now is not the time for sarcasm!" Leo snapped, making me roll my eyes at him. "But you started it Leo!" Mikey said to Leo with a frown, making the Leader in Blue roll his eyes. Before he could comment again, the tanker stopped and Dogpound jumped off it. Dogpound then picked up a manhole cover and threw it at Leo. Leo quickly jumped out of his sidecar and landed in front of Dogpound with his katana blades in hand.

"Is that all you got?" Leo asked before Dogpound charged at him. "I'd say that's a no." Mikey said after he and I stopped next to Leo before we both took off our helmets and got out our sidecars. We charged at Dogpound with Leo and started attacking the mutant dog. Bradford tried to crash us into the ground, but the three of us jumped into the air.

Before we could land an attack from above, Dogpound punched Mikey and blocked mine and Leo's attack. Dogpound landed a few hits on us and the three of us landed against a construction sight. Bradford walked towards us to before I took out a ninja smoke bomb and threw it. Purple smoke surrounded us before we disappeared, then reappeared on the floor above Dogpound. When we reappeared, we saw a Foot soldier getting a ready to dump the acid into the sewer.

"Don't let him dump that acid!" Leo ordered Mikey. Mikey jumped away from Dogpound's attacks before running over to the tanker and started attacking the Foot soldier. Dogpound jumped down and was about to stop Mikey, when I jumped down and landed on Bradford's back. "I don't think so!" I said before punching him in the eyes. Dogpound screamed in pain and tried to punch me, but I jumped away before he could. "You little brat!" He exclaimed before charging at me.

Before he could land a hit, Leo jumped down and attacked. Dogpound dodged the blades before picking up a car and tried to hit us both with it. "Na huh! Bad dog!" I exclaimed as I back flipped away from the car. Dogpound growled at me before suddenly grabbing both Leo and I, and threw us at the tanker, making us crash into Mikey.

Dogpound run towards us and went to crash us, but the three of us moved away before he could. Leo went to stab Bradford, but the mutant dog grabbed Leo's wrist before pushing him back. After pushing Leo back, it caused Leo's katana blade to stab into the tanker's tank. The acid started leaking out until Leo kicked Dogpound away from him, pulling the blade out of the tank and landed next to Mikey and I. After pulling his blade out, the acid started pouring out rapidly.

"Oh no!" I exclaimed as Leo and I stared with wide eyes at the pouring acid. "What'd Donnie say about this stuff?" Leo asked me before his eyes widen in realization. "Mikey! Throw the water balloon!" Leo suddenly ordered, making me frown in confusion. "Uh, what water balloon?" Mikey asked, acting as if he has no clue what Leo is talking about. "The one you were gonna hit me with." Leo said and gave Mikey a pointed look.

My eyes widen in surprise and looked behind Mikey's back. Behind his back was his hand with a water balloon in it. "Dude, you are good." Mikey said as he looked over his shoulder at the water balloon before throwing the water balloon. Before the balloon could hit the tanker, Leo tackled Mikey and I away from the tanker, taking cover behind a car before the tanker exploded from the water balloon. The three of us stood up and watched with wide eyes at the now burning tanker.

"Nice shot, Mi-oh!" Leo started talking before getting hit in the face by a water balloon. "Doctor Prank-enstein for the win!" Mikey cheered after throwing the water balloon. "You had two? Where do you keep them?" Leo asked shocked while he and I stared at Mikey with wide eyes. Before Mikey could answer, Raph, Donnie and Jack came around the corner running. "Jack!" I cried out in relief before running towards my boyfriend and jumped into his arms.

"You're okay!" I said as I wrapped my arms around his neck, while he wrapped his around my waist. "Eh, looks like we missed the fireworks." Raph said after pulling Jack and I pulled away from our hug. "Yes you did my dear twin!" I joked as Jack wrapped his arm around my waist. "Donnie, the go-kart worked great. Nice job." Leo said to our brother with a proud smile. "Thanks, Leo!" Donnie said with a bright smile before glaring pointedly. "And it's a patrol buggy!" He said, making as all chuckle at him.

Suddenly, out of the blue, a pop went off next to me and Jack cried out in surprise. "You actually threw a water balloon at me!" Jack exclaimed as he glared at Mikey as water dripped down from his hair. "Wait a minute, you had three water balloons?" I asked shocked while Mikey danced in victory. "Doctor Prank-enstein is now the all time champion!" Mikey cheered while dancing.

Before Jack could get back at Mikey, I waterbended the water from Jack's hair and formed it into a ball. "Shut up Mikey!" I said and threw the water ball into my baby brother's face. Mikey immediately stopped dancing and stared at me with wide shock and surprised eyes. While he stared at me, Jack and the other burst into laughter. "Sometimes the doctor needs a taste of his own medicine!" I said with a smirk and crossed my arms.

***

"Nothing says victory like the sweet taste of pizza!" Mikey said as we all took a slice of pizza and took a bite. After taking a bite, I smelled a garbage smell from my slice of pizza. I frowned slightly a bit before just shrugging it off and continued eating it. But then I saw both Blaze an Blizzard were also sniffing at the pizza curiously, and not eating it. I opened my mouth to question Mikey when Donnie beat me to it. "This pizza smells kind of funky. Where'd you get it?" He asked Mikey.

"It's the one April threw out."

My eyes widen in shock before we all spit out the pizza and gagged, even Blaze and Blizzard jumped away from the pizza. "What's wrong with you Mikey?" Jack asked as he and I picked our mythical pets up while we all looked to Mikey in disbelief. "What? We live in a sewer. Now you're clean freaks?" Mikey questioned us with a frown before smiling cheerfully. "More for me." He added before picking a handful of pizza and munched on it.

"That's just gross Mikey!" I said while we all glared at Mikey, while also growling in anger, including Blaze and Blizzard. "My children." We all stopped glaring and growling when we heard Splinter, turning around to face him as he walked over to us. "I owe you my gratitude and an apology." Sensei said, surprising us all at his words. "An apology?" Leo asked as he stood up, before the rest of us stood up as well.

"Fear clouded your minds. However, it was not the Shredder who fueled that fear, but me." Sensei said while we stood in front of him and listened. "You overcame that fear, and performed admirably. No training today." Sensei finished before turning to walk away. We all cheered in excitement, until Blaze and Blizzard suddenly growled, surprising Jack and I. "Unless Michelangelo throws that balloon." Sensei said without turning around.

Knowing why Blaze and Blizzard was growling, we all turned and saw Mikey standing ready with a big water balloon in his hand, ready to throw it. Mikey was standing with a smile and his tongue sticking out, before his smile disappeared when he saw that he was caught. Glaring, both Jack and I put our pets down before getting ready to tackle Mikey with the others. "You are so gonna get it!" Raph yelled and we all tackled a screaming Mikey.
