My chest was hurting as I powered on again, groaning as I looked around. It was like a flash before my eyes. The last thing I could really remember was being torn apart by that thing... and walking to Uzi to warn her. I wanted to keep my promise, although I didn't really fulfill it. I still wanted to help and I tried so hard to stand by my promise.

As I gazed upwards, I saw heaps of garbage towering over me. A part of me felt like I belonged in that trash heap, considering how terribly I had failed in my mission. I felt like I had broken my own promise. Nevertheless, my main concern was how I had managed to survive and how I ended up in this place in the first place. Before I found myself lying on the cold, stony ground of the cathedral, my visor had displayed the words ❝ Дай отпор ❞ which translates to ❝ Fight Back ❞ in the common language spoken by most drones, that is, English.

I had to pick myself up and get out of here. If I was here, there might be a chance of other worker drones being here. I could use their parts to fix myself. But as I hovered my hand over my chest, I gasped; there was an oily scar where my chest had been previously ripped open. I wasn't planning on opening my chest to check if I was alive, which was proof enough to know my heart was there. Yet, I couldn't grasp how I had a heart when mine was ripped out of my chest and eaten in my last moments. 

I groaned and yelped as I tried to extricate myself from under the pile of garbage. It seemed like I had been trapped there for quite some time, judging by the amount of trash that had accumulated over me. Despite the pain, I managed to wriggle out, being careful not to injure myself any further. I slid down the heap of garbage, feeling weak and disoriented, but relieved to be free. If I had been stuck there for much longer, I might have been seriously injured or worse. However, as I stumbled and fell on a pile of garbage, my systems began to shut down. It appeared that my body and internal systems had sustained damage while I was trapped, and I would need to wait until I could be repaired.

The Turtles arrived at the graveyard to search for parts that could be added to their gear or used to repair the Turtle Tank after the Krang attack. They saw this as a good opportunity to reconnect as brothers after the traumatic experience. They decided to work on improving the Turtle Tank together, which even though Donnie was protective of, he agreed to as long as they didn't damage her. He also had some ideas to improve the Tank but hadn't had the time to implement them.

As Mikey strolled through the dump searching for materials for his latest projects, he stumbled upon a fascinating discovery. A robot! Despite being surprised to find such a unique item in a dump, he couldn't help but be drawn to its cool design. While he was tempted to dismantle it, he reasoned that it may still be sentient and thus couldn't bring himself to do so. Instead, he decided to take the invention along, carrying it piggyback-style, while simultaneously picking up some decorations and parts that he felt Donnie would appreciate. This chance discovery may be the key to unlocking a world of possibilities for their projects.
