The turtles and Ray stand together on a rooftop, engaging in a lively weapon-filled battle. Mikey shouts with excitement, "Oh yeah, check this out! Power Fun Jitsu!" He swings his Kusari-fundo, causing blazing flames to soar through the air towards Ray and Raph. In response, Ray swiftly utilizes her Tessan to create a protective vortex of air around them, deflecting the fire and safeguarding her companions.

"Mikey, be careful when you play with fire," Ray advises, a hint of concern in her voice. Raph smirks and interjects, "Not bad, not bad. But check out these puppies." He confidently punches his tonfas together, generating a powerful surge of red energy that disperses the wind and fire.

Leo, seeking to showcase his skills, confidently declares, "If you guys want to see real skills, look right here. I'm going to create a portal to New Jersey." Ray raises an eyebrow, questioning Leo's choice of location. Leo swings his sword, but to his frustration, nothing happens. "Come on, Power Portal Jitsu," he grumbles, attempting to summon a portal once more. However, only a tiny opening manifests. Mikey and Raph burst into laughter, while Ray quietly chuckles.

"That's not going to get you across the street, let alone to New Jersey," Raph teases, unable to resist poking fun at Leo's failed attempt. Leo, undeterred, defends himself, saying, "Okay, but... see, it's practical, which makes it better." As Leo puts his hand through the portal, another one unexpectedly opens behind him, and he playfully scratches his own shell. "I know who I'm going to when my back itches," Ray jokes.

Curious about Donnie's whereabouts, Mikey calls out, "Hey, Donnie, what are you doing, bud?" Donnie, with his goggles off, is deeply engrossed in analyzing a crystal. "Well, while you guys took the flashier items from Draxum, I, on the other hand, went for something more cerebral. You see, this crystal, combined with the elements..." Donnie starts to explain, but Leo interrupts, urging him to get to the point.

"Now I can see all of the mystic energy hidden around New York. You're welcome, and thank you," Donnie says, placing the crystal into his goggles. The turtles gaze in awe at the newfound ability.

"Whoa, that's awesome! What about that laundromat?" Raph asks, pointing at a nearby establishment. Donnie focuses his gaze on the laundromat and remarks, "It looks like an ordinary laundromat, but let's see what we have here." He notices an elderly woman walking into an alleyway. "Whoa... underneath that old lady's skin is some sort of fire mutant thing," he informs his brothers.

The woman looks around cautiously before waving her hand, causing a portal to open up. She then steps inside, disappearing from sight. "She just vanished into that wall," Mikey exclaims. Donnie speculates, "I believe she went into some sort of cool mystic pizza place."

"Pizza! Guys, my blood sugar's getting low. I need to eat, bad!" Mikey says, rubbing his stomach. The turtles leap down from the rooftop, landing in front of the wall. Raph was about to emulate the woman's action, but Leo intervenes. "Step aside. Let's put the prettiest face first," Leo asserts. Donnie agrees, suggesting, "Yeah, we should let Ray do it." Leo grumbles, but Ray questions their plan. "Do you even know what you're doing?" she asks. Leo confidently responds, "Yes, I'm going to get us inside." He begins waving his hands, but the skeleton graffiti on the wall blows a raspberry. "Nice try, pretty boy," Raph taunts, pushing Leo aside. Raph proceeds to wave his hand, causing a blue flame to appear, opening a portal.

"Nice one, Raph," Ray commends, stepping through the portal. "Don't leave me," Leo pleads as the portal begins to close. The remaining four teens gasp as they see mutants walk around the pizza place.

"Alright, alright, everybody be cool. This is our first time in a classy restaurant... establishment," Raph says, trying to maintain composure. Ray scans the area, searching for Leo, and asks, "Wait, where's your brother?" Leo's head pokes out from the wall behind them, and they pull him out.
