     On the tenth floor of Stockman Labs, Mystique, along with a few Foot soldiers searched the entire floor for what they were sent for.

"Probably should have asked where on the tenth floor this thing was." said Mystique.

"You're not going to have enough time to search for it." said Cyclops, getting the attention of Mystique and the Foot soldiers.

"Foot soldiers, get them!" ordered Mystique, running for the door to her right as Foot soldiers surrounded Cyclops and Storm.

     In the room Mystique found herself in a lab with gigantic machine in the center. On the floor were couple of drains, possibly for wiping chemicals from ones body.

"Rocksteady, I found it. Sending the coordinates." said Mystique on her communicator.

"I wouldn't touch that if I were you." said Raphael.

"More interruptions I see." said Mystique.

"If I were you I'd back away slowly." warned Michelangelo.

"Hmm. Let's put those ninja skills of yours I heard so much about to the test." smirked Mystique, before ducking and doing a leg sweep, almost tripping Raphael and Mikey.

     Raphael and Michelangelo backflipped out of the way as Mystique swung her other leg up, almost catching their faces.

"That's how you want to play it huh?" said Raphael "Let me handle her first Mike."

     Raphael jumped over Mystique as she did another leg swipe, and tried attacking with sai. Mystique dodged, grabbing Raphael's arm, twirling herself around vertically, hooking her leg onto Raphael's neck, somersaulted towards the wall, flinging Raph right at it. Raphael, able to catch himself rolled back and ran at Mystique with a couple highflying kicks. Mystique, blocking each kick, ran to her opponent, jumped into the air and landed behind Raph.

"Tag me in bro." shouted Mikey on the sidelines.

"Go kick some ass." said Raphael, tagging his brother in.

     Michelangelo approached Mystique slowly, nunchucks swinging above his head. He swung at her, but she swiftly dodged. He swung the other. She dodged. He swung again, but this time she grabbed hold of it. Mikey, playing along swung the loose nunchuck at Mystique, which she also grabbed. Mystique spun the turtle around as Mikey ran along the wall, jumping over Mystique, making her fall backwards on the floor. Mystique rolled backwards, doing yet another leg swipe which Mikey jumped over. Mikey rolled backwards as Mystique swung her leg up trying to kick him again. Then Mikey had an idea. Mystique swung her leg again, but this time Mikey grabbed it, flinging Mystique towards the machine. Mystique got up, dusting herself off.

"I see your Master taught you well." said Mystique.

"Not so bad yourself sweetheart." snickered Mikey, before the roof of the building crumbled open revealing a helicopter lowering down with a hook attached to it.

"So long. Hope we meet again." said Mystique, flashing the device Raph was holding in her hand and climbing onto the machine as it was raised "Shit!"

     Before the machine could be completely lifted out of the building it rocked a little, causing Mystique to drop the device on the floor and into one of the drains.

"Damn!" shouted Raphael as Mystique and the machine got away.

"What happened?" asked Cyclops, running into the room with Storm following behind "Where's Mystique?"

"She got away." groaned Raphael.

"What about the device?" asked Storm.

"Fell into the drain." answered Raphael "And you know what that means."

"Yeah." said Cyclops "And I'm definitely not looking forward to it."
