— ❝ HEY! ROBO-COPS, LOOK OVER HERE! ❞

────⋅☽⋅────

"HURRY UP WITH THAT LOCK, WOULD YA?" April shouted irritably down at the purple turtle as he tried to sift through a tangle of wires. His rather large physique slowed him down significantly, but he was going reasonably fast considering there was an army of robots trying to shoot him down.

"Hey, do you know how hard it is to pick a lock with these fingers?" He defended himself, wiggling his six fingers.

April sheepishly winced. "Sorry."

"Hey, Mikey." Raven tried the name out, remembering it was what the purple one called him. The orange bandana wearing turtle peered over his shoulder curiously. So that was his name. "Cover me."

More bold than she ever expected to be, Raven darted out into the middle of the fire and hurried towards where the purple one knelt. Mikey, mildly panicking, barely managed to shield her during her short but terrifying journey.

"Here, let me." Raven nearly shoved him out of the way and slotted herself in front of the wire-ball. She raised her taser to it, plugging two wires into the two prongs at the end of it and, after a quick prayer, placed her finger on the trigger.

The purple turtle hovered over her shoulder. "Hey, is that a—"

Raven cut him off when she activated the taser and the keypad let out a mini explosion. April's cell door slid open and the turtles and Raven turned, expecting to see her and her father standing there.

But that wasn't the case. It seemed that the cell had been opened on the other side just moments earlier and they barely caught sight of April as she was dragged away by two of the droids. "Help!" she cried.

"Guys, we've gotta go!" the shout from the blue one forced their gazes back just in time to see multiple lasers headed straight for them. Raven screamed, her arms flying out defensively. Like it would do anything.

An arm wrapped around her waist and when she opened her eyes, she found herself in the arms of the red turtle. They had gained some distance from the robots from the hallway and the laser-fire had ceased.

The five burst through the back doors that April had gone through moments before them. Raven peeked over the turtle's shoulder and saw one of the robots barreling towards them. "Watch out!" She warned the red one, and he spun around to shut the doors on it.

It wasn't fast enough and the bot squeezed in between the two doors, keeping them from shutting. With her in his arms, she knew he was struggling to hold him off. Then she realized she was still holding her taser in her hands.

She prayed it still worked as she pressed it to the bot's head and activated it. A surge of electricity short circuited the thing and it went limp in between the doors. The turtle used it to his advantage and snapped off its arm before kicking its body back inside, sliding its severed limb into the door handles to keep anything else from getting out.

"I kinda like this one." The red one said as he set Raven down, freezing when he saw the rest of them staring at them, wide-eyed. "What?"

"You are seriously twisted." deadpanned the blue one.

His red counterpart simply smiled. "Thanks."

"Ah, crap. They've got her up there!" Raven cut the minor victory short and pointed towards the top of the building where two droids were escorting April and her father towards a helicopter.

"You stay here and stay hidden." The blue one instructed firmly before turning to the other three turtles. "Let's get her!"

Their heroic advance was cut short when something slotted itself between them and April. A very big something.
