DonatelloWe managed to find the first one, but we need the others.
You found one of the pieces!?
No one should have such power. We Utroms took pains to hide the pieces in the safest parts of the galaxy.
Safest!? The first piece corrupted the entire race of Aeons!
What!!?
Impossible!
No way!
I totally go for mutants, like Karai, but alien lizards?
DonatelloBeauty is in the eye of the beholder, Leo.
Who enters the realm seeking audience with Hidrala, supreme ruler of the Daagon?
Uh, greetings, Supreme Ruler. My name is Leonardo and these are my companions.
What up? [Raphael hits him]
We come bearing the sigil of the Utrom. We seek the fragment of the Back-Hole Generator that you have in your possession.
You may rise.
Thank you, Your Majesty.
The Utrom entrusted the fragment to me, giving Hidrala ultimate say over it. Are you truly worthy to claim a device of such devastating power? Who among you is leader? [Leonardo steps forward] You? You are a mere child. How are you worthy?
We may be young, but we have fought huge battles, saved whole planets! And on top of everything else, we saw the destruction of our world.
DonatelloWe've been given a second chance to save Earth. We're gonna destroy the Black-Hole Generator.
Ha! It cannot be destroyed. Why do you think it was hidden away?
If you keep it, the Triceratons will find it. They'll tear your kingdom apart to get it.
If you desire the fragment, you must face Cthuga, an ancient beast that obeys only me. If you are indeed worthy, it will sense this and let you take it freely. If you are not, it will devour you whole.
I'm trying to tell you, this isn't a weapon! It's a portal projector!
DonatelloOh, yeah? Well how do we know you're not a Kraang?
That's why we brought you here, Kraang! He's causing trouble in our dimension, and yours too!
Kraang's, like, trying to destroy both our realities, dudes! We just don't know how. You gotta believe us!
That's why we called on you posers- I mean, turtles for help. Did I say posers? Oops.
Posers?! You guys don't even fight with your weapons! And what's up with the initials on your belts? Lame!
I think I’m gonna like putting some more cracks in this imposter's shell. [points to 2012 Donnie] And you, Gappy, why do you sound so weird?
Donatello[offended] Me, sound weird? Heard yourself lately?
How are we gonna take down the black-hole generator if its invulnerable to everything?
There is a way, but the entire Heart of Darkness must be destroyed. Not a single piece must remain.
What's wrong, Professor? I can sense you wanna tell us something.
My friends, I must confess something to you. Something I couldn't reveal until you got to know we better as a humanoid, uh, android.
What are you talking about, Fugi-dude?
You see, it was not the Kraang who invented the Black-Hole generator. It was...I who created it.
What!?
It can’t be!
DonatelloNo way!
It doesn't make sense!
I originally developed the black-hole generator as an energy source. But when Kraang Sub-Prime offered a huge price to buy it, I gave in. I was greedy. I didn't care what they wanted to use it for. It was all about money, all about financing my research. And then I realized what a terrible mistake I made. I mean, seriously, come on! They're the Kraang!
DonatelloI get it now. He said the only way to destroy the Black-hole generator is a combination of fusion and dark matter.
Which means?
DonatelloThe ship runs on dark matter and the Fugitoid is powered by a fusion core.
That's why he wanted us off the ship. He didn't want to steal it. He's...sacrificing himself.
NO! Fugitoid, don't do it!!
It has to be this way, my friends. If you had known my intent, you would have tried to stop me. And for that, I thank you. Let it be known, that you are my friends. And I love you all.
We'd like to know what's going on here, too.
Leo, calm down! The brain-worm that was controlling me is gone. I'm not your enemy.
Oh? So then why did your crazy friend attack us!?
It was only a test to see her skills. Shinigami's an old friend from Japan. She was never gonna hurt you.
At least not permanently.
[draws strength from her mystical Sol Star necklace] She's telling the truth. That brain-worm thing is gone. They're not after us. They're after...
Shredder.
So, what's up with the head gear, Princess? Daddy issues?
I want to rebuild the Foot. Bring back honor to a clan that Shredder poisoned for almost two decades. And when I finish, I'll destroy Oroku Saki and his empire, once and for all.
Life isn't about revenge, sis. Come back to the lair with us. Master Splinter would love to see you.
No. I have to carve out my own destiny.
DonatelloFine. We're leaving.
First, I want my tanto back. Now!!
If you want it back, take it from her. I mean, shouldn't be hard for a kunoichi, right?
Fine by me. I wanted a rematch anyway.
I'm tired of training with kid gloves. No one's pulling punches out there. Why should we do it in here? (Pushes Leo away)
Raph!
Teishi, because you are brothers and your goal here is to train.
(groans) Sensei, why do you always stick up for Leo? I'm the only one who takes training seriously. The rest of 'em are just goofing off all the time.
(Raph throws a ninja star at Donnie's juice container)
(mimics) "No one appreciates me." Back on the "Everyone loves Leo" routine? Get some new material, you big baby.
(Laughs)
Raph That's it! If you guys don't want to take this as seriously as I do, then I quit! I'm done! Through! Adios!
(Raph storms out of the lair)
How many times has he quit the team now?
Twenty-seven times.
You have a brilliant mind, Donatello. Yet you see a fire and try to put it out with gasoline. You are growing up, my sons, and you must become more mature. One day I will not be around to remind you of your foibles.
Is foible that dangly thing that hangs at the back of my throat?
DonatelloFoible means "weakness of character," shell brain!
Master, you've made it through the worst of the worst. And we're never gonna let-
Everything isn't permanent, Leonardo. You cannot expect anything to last forever, even...family.
DonatelloApril when we get back to the lair I think I should do more tests on that crystal.
No, Donnie.
[becoming concerned] April, are you alright?
It's my crystal. I'm never gonna take it off for anything or anyone- Ever again!
Are you sure this is a good idea, Donnie?
Yeah. Last time you hooked me up to this thing, it made me blind and mentally connected to a giant fish-bird-worm thing.
DonatelloDon't worry. I've upgraded it since then. It's perfectly safe. I promise. Your psychic powers have been advancing rapidly since you were given that Aeon crystal. It's imperative I test its limits. For your own sake.
I have it under control. Besides if it weren't for my powers, we never would have gotten away from Super Shredder. You saw what I did to that mutated freak.
That's what worries us.
I just need to examine your Crystal.
[firmly] No! I'm not taking it off! Don't even ask again, Donnie! It's safe as long as I have it!
If I can replicate how this crystal increases your powers, that could provide a frame of reference–
Increase her powers?
Don't worry. Only slightly by maybe .3%. April, let me know if you feel anything. OK? Tingling, headache.
I told you! I'm fine! Just leave the Crystal– AGHH!!
[April is suddenly overflowing with mighty mystical power, which is causing her already powerful psionic abilities to go berserk and trashes Donnie's lab]
Join me, my sons. For tonight I have something special to share with you.
Ooh. Presents, Sensei?
Shh. Quiet, Mikey.
Young DonatelloCool. I love story time.
I wanna know more about Japan, Master Splinter.
Not tonight, Leonardo. I have told you before of how we all came to be together. But I have not told you everything. After finding you in a pet store one afternoon I bumped into a mysterious stranger. I followed him, only to have my curiosity...undermined. In the struggle that followed we were all exposed to a strange substance...changing us forever, turning us into very unique beings. Our journey together has not been an easy one. But it could not have happened without fate, courage, and great purpose. The world we live in is very dangerous. We have many enemies in the city above. My duty is to teach you all I know. One day, you will need to choose your own destiny. But tonight, I want to tell you the rest of our story.
