A couple hours have passed and Aubrey was in her lab with Tony, they were working on recreating Donnie's retro-mutagen but the problem is... Aubrey can't seem to figure out the last ingredient to the substance.

"Bunty... No offense but can we take a break? We have been working for an eternity..." Tony yawned as he rested his head on the table, he was awake all night as vampires do. But it was mid-day which meant he had to sleep.

"Oh! I'm sorry, Tony! I forgot about your sleeping schedule, you can rest and I will keep working-" She didn't have to tell him twice, the minute she looked at him, he was fast asleep.

Aubrey smiled and placed a blanket over him, she then looked both ways and saw no one was there so she quickly kissed her finger tips and placed them on his forehead.

"Maybe if I look through the drawers one... last time" Aubrey opened a bottom drawer and that's when she noticed a bunch of photos and a witch's cloak and matching hat.

"Oops, wrong drawer... Wait!" She pulled out the photos and the cloak and hat and found a vial of blood.

"Blood?" She picked it up and read the label, "April's Blood sample, hmm... Must be for medical reasons" She placed it down on the table but it accidentally knocked over and into her retro-mutagen.

"No... No! No! No!" She squealed as she took a sample and put it under the microscope.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"I screwed up! Oh... Now I'll never cure your father" She sniffled as she placed her head on the desk.

"Bunty, it's.. wait, look at it"

"H-Huh?" She looked through the microscope and gasped, "The cells.... Between the gem shards and the mutagen they are reversing back to their normal state, we can turn your father normal!"

"I just.. thank you Bunty! You're the best!!" Tony smiled.

In the heat of the moment, he grabbed her from across the table and kissed her. Which is when the others came in.

"WHAT THE F**K?!" Donnie and Ray yelled, while the others just screamed in happiness.

This made them separate and look at the others, two were either shocked or pissed and the rest were happy.

"Um... We... I.... Y-You know! I-Is it hot in here?!" Aubrey stuttered as she passed out, her face was as red as a cherry.

"And.. Aubrey's broken"

"You... Laid you're filthy teenage boy hands on my perfect... innocent... beautiful... intelligent daughter." He started growling and his eyes started turning all black.

"Tony, I think you should run"

"I believe I should as well, Leah" Tony started running as Donnie started chasing after him, spikes puffing out of his shoulders and shell.

"DONNIE!! THE CURSE! THE CURSE!" His brothers yelled, chasing after him.

Remus just shook his head and helped Aubrey up and put her up on the bench.

"O-Oh my, T-That felt... Whoa!" Aubrey started floating with her pupils turning into stars.

"Dah! Aubrey!" He shouted.

Ray grabbed her and started dragging her down while Haley started laughing.

"This reminds of when Donnie started dating her mother, he would pass out then start talking gibberish!" She started giggling.

"Oh god"

"Wait! The retro-mutagen!" Aubrey stood up then fell flat on her face.

"You good Aubrey?"

"I'm okay! Where's Tony?!"

"Your dad's trying to kill him for kissing you"

"Papa!! I need him, please!" She picked up the retro-mutagen.

"Fine, fine. You live this time." He said, dropping Tony and walking away.

"Wait, don't go! I have made a discovery!"

This caused the others to circle around as she showed them the retro-mutagen.

"I have successfully recreated your retro-mutagen, papa! We can use it to turn Tony's father back to normal, and... Maybe even you Aunt Haley"

"Kiddo... This is a nice thought but..." Raph put his arm around her waist, comforting her.

"Save Tony's father first and then she'll think about it" Raph said, kissing her cheek.

"Okay, let's go find him!"

"Tony, d-do you care to j-join us?" Aubrey tugged the hem of her sweater while she stared up at him.

"Yeah, I wanna come with you all" he looked down at her and smiled.

Sera gasped, "ARE YOU TWO DATING NOW?!"

"WHAT?! N-NO!" The two teens blushed madly and started making crazy hand gestures.

"Okay, okay, let's leave them alone now! They need to figure their feelings out"

Aubrey and Tony smiled at each other then looked away, trying to avoid an awkward conversation.

"Aww"

10 minutes later

The team were standing on the rooftop, staring at the vampire and bat mutant hybrid that was sleeping on a billboard.

"Tony, I think you should probably hang back"

"This is my father! I'm not just gonna sit on the sidelines!" He exclaimed.

"The last time you tried to help, he took you to his nest and tried to feed you dead animals"

Tony cringed at the memory considering Aubrey did see him eat those dead animals.... So embarrassing.

"Right, go ahead" Tony stepped back as Aubrey handed him a lunch bag.

"Here, enjoy some snacks while we work!" She smiled.

"O-Oh.. thanks Bunty, can we talk after?"

"O-Of course!" She stuttered as she started walking towards the billboard.

"Hey! How come she never makes us snack baggies?" Sera grumbled.

"Um"

Tony chuckled as he watched them walk away, looking in the bag and smiled, when he saw blood bags and some raw meat.

"Nerdette, what was that?"

"Tony has a special diet like me, so I made him his favorite!"

"That ain't what I was talking about and you know it."

"I have n-no idea what you're talking about!" She turned away from them, blushing madly.

"Chump, do you wanna try?"

"Maybe later"

"Aubrey, we can tell you feel something for him" Leah smiled, reassuring her.

"It's that obvious?"

"Yeah!" The four of them said in usion.

"L-Let's just focus on his father!"

"Alright, but we're messing with you later"

"F-Fine!" Aubrey blushed as she pointed the spray at his head.

As she was about to spray it at him, Anton grabbed the retro-mutagen out of her hands, scaring both Aubrey and Tony's father. He was mutated into a wolf by Metal for failing his last mission.

"What the?!"

"I must thank you for giving me this... Once I return back to normal, I will make your end swift." Anton growled, as he attacked them.

As Anton attacked the others, Tony's father flew away from everyone else. Tony then tried to run after him but that failed.

"Father! No!" Tony reached out for him, dropping his bag.

Tony's scream not only surprised the others but surprised Anton, making him drop the retro-mutagen.

"No!!"

Anton growled and ran across the roof top, grabbing Tony and placing his claws against his throat.

"No, let go!"

"Tony!" Aubrey screamed.

"You brats give me more retro-mutagen or else your precious friend mutates... with me." Anton picked Tony up by his mouth and started running away on all fours.

Back at the lair

"I only have this one left.. What am I gonna do?" Aubrey shook in fear as a swarm of anxiety rushed over her.

"What do you mean by that?" Aubrey jumped in fear as she turned around and saw the adults, worried about her.

"O-Oh, um.. It's just that I only have one container of retro mutagen left.. It'll take me weeks to make more!"

"Aubrey"

"But I can figure out some spell, maybe to replicate the experiment!"

"Aubrey!"

"Or! I could just simply sneak Tony out and work on another mutagen-!"

"AUBREY!!" Haley yelled, making the nervous teenager sit down.

"Y-Yes, Aunt Haley?"

"Listen, I love being a mutant! I don't want to be a human again, it was nothing but tears and bloodshed for me... When I turned into a mutant, it was the best thing that could happen to me! Save your boyfriend's dad"

"A-are you sure?"

"Yes, I don't need to be normal to be happy! It's overrated anyways"

"O-Okay! And he's not my boyfriend!"

"You say that now"

Aubrey grabbed the retro-mutagen and ran out of the lab, but poked her head back into the lab.

"No, he's not!" Aubrey then ran back out of the lab.

Ray groaned and walked over to Sera, "Guess you and me are bat wrangling tonight, Dunce Face!"

Sera looked up at her and smirked, "I have the perfect costume!!"

"Please don't." Ray growled as Sera changed into a handmade ladybug costume, "Oh god, I'm so gonna lose street cred for hanging out with you..." She walked out of the lair as Lena and Phillip were walking in.

"Let's do this thing!!" Sera cheered as she ran after Ray.

"So, who took Tony?"

"And do we get to hit people?"

"Long story, you two and yes you do get to hit someone with a baseball bat and a pipe! Probably more than once" Leah smiled, as the two teens grinned excitedly.

At Anton's warehouse

"Anton, listen! I'll help you, she can make more mutagen, it'll only take a few wee.. I mean hours!"

"If she fails... I have a better idea." Anton grabbed some chains.

"So do I" Tony growled and pulled out a spear from his necklace and attacked him.

"You little brat!"

"Mess with a Hamato's friend, you get the claws!" Sera taught him that line, which made him cringe.

"You're not getting away that easy!" Anton tackled him to the ground and chained him up.

"No!"

"Don't make this hard, vampire." Tony stopped struggling and froze, "Oh yes, we know who you are and what you are. Your mother offered a grand prize for your safe return."

"No. I'm not going back."

"You don't have a choice. You can't go back to the Hamatos. After they find out what you are... They will lock you up and throw away the key."

"No, they won't! They're my friends!"

"Friends are for the stupid, Love is for the weak, and Family is for the scared. They don't love you."

"That's not true!"

"Then how come your little girlfriend isn't coming to your rescue?" Anton tied him to a long chain, over a giant jar of mutagen.

As Anton continued talking down to him, Leah and her team attempted to sneak into the warehouse, hearing everything both men were saying. Phillip then noticed a fly, smacked it and it made the others aware of their presence.

"Ah. Look who finally came to the party!" Anton grinned evilly. "Give me the retro mutagen, or the vampire gets turned into a freak!"

"Vampire?!" Leah shouted, but Phillip and Aubrey stayed quiet but it surprised Aubrey that Phillip was quiet, "You two knew?!"

"How about we save him first!"

"Listen, Anton! We don't wanna hurt you!" Aubrey shouted but Leah threw a dagger at him, "Well, Leah does but you shouldn't have taken her boyfriend!"

"And? He was a traitor so he deserved it"

This only enraged Leah.

"He deserved to be... Free!!" Leah was screeching, as she shot a blast of water at him.

"Damn Princess!!"

"Just help him! Now." Leah growled.

As everyone else started attacking Anton, Aubrey was trying to get Tony loose from the chains.

"You told... Phillip?" Tony looked away from her, thinking she betrayed him much like his siblings.

"No, I never told him.. I don't know how he found out"

"Well, I didn't tell him! Unless he was eavesdropping on us!"

"May as well ask him when I get you down, hold still" Aubrey kept trying to untie him when she brushed his hair away from his ears, showing how pointed they are, "I like them!"

"You do?"

"Yeah! Makes you seem powerful" Aubrey was about to get the last hoop when Anton jumped behind him and accidentally cut the chains.

"Tony!"

"Aubrey!!" Tony screamed as he was about to fall into the mutagen but at the last minute he turned into a bat and wiggled himself out of the chains.

Meanwhile with Ray, Remus, and Sera

"Ahh!! Help me!!"

Sera was flying around as Tony's father, Julian chased after her.

"We got him chasing after Sera, now get your a$$ over here before I let him eat her!" Ray shouted at her through the phone.

"Give us a minute, Ray! We're having some issues!" Leah yelled over the phone.

"Oh, Ray! Always threatening Sera's life!" Remus shouted, riding on her back.

"Also, why aren't you the one flying!"

"Unless you want me to break your face, I'd shut your damn mouth!" He said innocently.

"Good job Chump, you're learning!"

"Guys!! Tony's dad wants to suck my hybrid blood!" Sera screamed.

"Maybe I should give him just a little.... Taste!" Ray teased, smirking.

"On second thought, we might be running a little late!" Leah shouted to them.

"GET YOUR HANDS OFF OF ME!!" They heard Aubrey yell over the phone.

"O.. kay then"

"RAY!!! MUSSY!!!" Sera yelled.

"We're kidding! We're kidding!!"

Ray threw Remus off of her back and he landed on Julian's back, giving her more weight to make him fall onto a rooftop.

"Wait!"

They all looked behind them and found Tony in his vampire form, startling the three of them.

"What the?"

"I know I look different, but... Let me talk to him"

"Go ahead"

Tony walked over to his father and knelt down, "Father... Mother is looking for me, I can't face her or my siblings alone... I need my father here, please"

Julian slowly calmed down and looked up at him.

"It's me..." Tony hugged him tightly.

"Hey, we finally got it!"

"Aubrey, come here!"

"I'm coming! I'm sorry I took so long, but just one spray of this an-!"

A foot bot flew past him, grabbing it out of her hands.

"Are you kidding?!"

Anton howled at them and he jumped on the back of the foot bot, taking it out of its hands.

"Flying footbots?! What next, a demon!" Sera said.

"We don't have time, Remus come on!!"

"Coming!"

Leah and Remus jumped onto flying foot bots, while Sera and Ray used their flying inventions to chase after them, leaving Aubrey to swing from building to building using her grappling hook.

"Stupid childlock" Anton growled as he tried to open it. As he kept struggling, Sera flew near him and knocked it out of his hands.

"Catch it, Ray!" She shouted as she flew past him.

"Got it!" Ray caught the bottle but she got knocked into a building by a footbot.

As that footbot caught the canister, Leah was riding a different footbot and saw it. So, she swung down and knocked the canister out of its hands.

"Yes!!" Leah got attacked from behind so she threw it over to Remus.

He tried to catch it but Anton flew in front of him and caught it. A few seconds later, Anton went face first into a billboard, dropping the canister of retro-mutagen. Which then hit a streetlight, which then made the canister break open.

"No!!" Aubrey screamed as she used her powers to splatter the retro-mutagen all over Julian. As soon as it landed on Julian, he started screeching and he flew near a building.

"Father!!" Tony yelled as he ran towards him.

"T.. Tony? What happened?"

"Father!" Tony hugged him tightly, "I thought I lost you..."

"No, I'm okay, I'll be okay"

Julian immediately noticed that Tony was in his vampire form.

"You told them?"

"Technically I told Aubrey, they figured it out on their own"

"Oh.."

"Don't worry! He's still our friend!"

"Heh, I better be! Thank you, Aubrey! You truly are a princess!" Tony picked her up and kissed her again.

"Aww!!"

Aubrey blushed madly and passed out in his arms.

"Oh my gosh! I killed her!!"

"You didn't kill her!"

"Then why is she red and unconscious?!"

"She's blushing and.. You know what, lets just take her back home, you can stay with her and when she wakes up, you two should talk!"

Ray smacked Sera in the head, shaking her head.

About a hour later and everyone else was back at the lair

"Hmm?" Aubrey said, stirring.

"Hey Bunty" Tony said, smiling while floating above her.

"H-Hi Tony"

"You have to stop passing out on me, your father is growing to hate me" He teased, showing off his fangs.

"I-I'll try!" She giggled and sat up. "Did you talk to Phillip?"

"Are you asking if he is still breathing then yes, I haven't told the others about my past yet"

"Oh, okay.. What did you wanna talk about this time?"

"... What are we?" He stared at her, "I mean, we're far from best friends and we clearly have feelings for each other, so?"

"Well.. what do you want us to be?"

Tony held her hands and kissed them, "I want us to be like those fantasy movies Serafina always watches, we've been through so much together in the past year"

"Yeah.. if I'm being honest.. I like you a lot too"

Tony chuckled slightly, seeing how red she was turning just by talking to him.

"Is that the reason why you turn as red as perfectly ripe blood?" He chuckled.

"Mmm hmm!"

"Aww, it's adorable just like you"

She blushed darker and smiled.

Tony blushed slightly and smiled back, he held her close and for a brief moment, Aubrey gasped when she heard a very faint heartbeat.

"Tony?"

"Yes?" He looked down at her.

".. can we kiss again?"

"I thought you would never ask" Tony smiled and kissed her, holding her by her waist.

She smiled and kissed back.

"Hey Tony, is Aubr.." Remus started as he opened the lab door and poked his head in. He saw them, chuckled quietly and left, giving them their privacy.

"So, Vampires, Mutants, and Living gemstones! Add that to the list of strange things we've seen" Leah said, writing in her notebook.

"You're making a list?"

"No, I'm writing an entry! Coral has my mother's notebook hidden from me so I've decided to write my own"

"Ooh, that sounds nice"

"So nice, I can't even imagine how amazing my mother's life was! A royal siren, who knew"

"I dunno"

"So.. you were telling me about doing something special on you and Nymph's next date, care to explain?"

"Shouldn't we be working on an escape plan for Andrew than you bugging me about my love life?"

"Can't we do both?"

"True, okay I was planning a nice picnic in Lovers peak then we will go to the nearby lake and swim!"

"Aww, adorable!"

"Yeah, I'm excited!"

"I'll bet, so.. about this rescue plan"

"Sera and Ray distract the guard while me and you sneak in through the sewers, Aubrey will be waiting outside with her new secret weapon"

"That's perfect!"

"I know! Ooh! How badly I wanted to kill Anton out there" Leah snarled, "Is Aubrey awake by the way?"

"I think so, she's getting one hell of a wake up call" Remus grinned.

"You're grinning.. Why does that terrify me?"

"Just trust me, my dear Lele"

"You don't call me that unless you know something! What is it?"

"What's that mom? You need me? Welp, I'll tell you later, see ya!!"

"Remus Leslie Hamato Davenport! You get back here this instant!!!" She yelled, chasing after him.

"No!! If you wanna know, go look for yourself!"

"I'd rather have you tell me!!"

"No!! I made myself keep my mouth shut.. Are you gonna tell the others if I tell you?"

"No, tell me!"

"Oh m.. fine, I.. may have seen Tony and Aubrey kissing"

"WHAT?!" Leah screamed, nearly popping his eardrums.

"OWW!!"

"Sorry! But are you serious?"

"Yes, I walked in, starting to ask Tony if Aubrey was awake, I saw him, then I saw her not in the bed, so I put two and two together and left the cinnamon roll couple alone"

"AWW!!"

"Hush!"

"Don't shush me, it's just... adorable"

"You will be able to have a moment like them, when we save your boyfriend, hmm?"

".. how do you even know?"

"Because the words of a wise and powerful leader that has always been attached to me" He started mimicking Leah, "Get up, wash your face, smack yourself and get along with your day!"

"Yeah I did say that"

"So take your own advice, Leah" Remus smiled and side hugged her.

"Alright, alright!"

They smiled at each other, as Coral watched them from afar.

"Coral? What are you doing?"

"Just... watching"

"Oh"

"Leonardo, since Leah is getting older... Does that mean they will find her?"

".. I have hope"

"Because if Alanna finds you, I pray for your life" Coral walked away.

"And I'll pray for mine too"
