"Will ya hurry up, Donnie? The alarms are going off!" I shout, readying my sais for battle.

"I'm working on it!" Donnie shouts back, typing furiously. He connects a wire from his t-phone to the Krang supercomputer or whatever he calls it. "It's downloading!" He says, watching the little progress bar appear on screen. 'One percent downloaded.'

Krang begin to fire and the rest of us jump into battle. At this point in training, it's a piece of cake. I stab one bot in the head, kicking another. The alien inside screeches, running away.

"Can't you make that thing download faster?" Leo asks, fighting off hoards of Krang with his katanas. The Krang are easy to defeat, but hoards of them have us gasping and sweating, bodies sore from intense fighting. Maybe I should've gotten more sleep last night because tens of bots pour in like an army of robot freaks.

"It's a lot of information, Leo."

"Well, there's a lot of Krang on my ass." And they have one goal: stop us from downloading the dirt Donnie found on them and the Family.

"The ones known as the turtles do not have permission to access the files for communications between the ones known as the Family and Krang." One bot drones on. I kick its ass and rip the head off to stop it from blabbering on any longer.

Donnie fights off a few Krang who make it to him. We've formed a pretty solid protective circle around him, but a few have gotten by and continue to shoot their laser guns at him. He groans, shouting at them to keep back, keeping a few feet of distance between them and the supercomputer.

Finally, the download is complete and Leo orders us to leave. Mikey drops a smoke bomb and we quickly exit through the window, leaving the remaining hoards of Krang behind.

Swiftly, repeatedly, with strength and impact I strike the living area punching dummy. Punches and kicks repeated continuously as I try to perfect them. How else will I defeat the Family if I can't deliver a flawless and powerful strike to the enemy?

April comments on my form, giving me gentle tips to improve. I nod, thanking her, and incorporate the tips, ones we've both learned from Master Splinter. My strikes improve greatly and she returns to her math homework.

"We're back!" Mikey shouts, hopping into the lair. The guys enter, triumphant. Raph runs up to me and bear hugs me, lifting me slightly off the ground. He plants several quick kisses on my cheeks and ear.

"Glad to see you too, Raph." I giggle, squirming a bit in delight at his kisses. He places me down on my feet and Donnie explains their findings.

The Family and the Krang have several huge files of communication between the two. He hopes this communication will provide insight on what they're doing with the mutagen and why the Family is transporting it. All communications are encrypted, but he's certain he has the technology to decode it.

"Will you still have time to help me with my chemistry homework tonight?" April asks, still sitting on the couch with her math textbook. Donnie pauses, glancing to the side and rubs his neck nervously.

"Oh, man, I did promise I'd help you with that."

"It's okay, we can study another day." April replies. She sighs in disappointment, closing her math textbook and placing it in her book bag. Donnie shifts his eyes nervously.

"This Krang information is really important. I'm sorry, April." He says. She mumbles something, standing, then says her goodbyes to the guys and me. She gives me a quick hug and wishes me luck with my training. I thank her. April exits the lair, waving goodbye to everyone, and Donnie rushes to his lab.
