Athena POV:

After the three of us had undergone the process of shutting the tech off, I tried to connect to Venus. All that came back was darkness. This really worried me. Everyone was preparing for the fight. I pulled Leo aside.

"Something is wrong. I can't get in contact with Venus." I watched Leo run through several emotions, from worry to anger to eerie calm.

"I'm sure she's fine. Maybe she isn't able to right now." He has this calm demeanor of a leader on. I just nodded and he walked away. But I knew that it wasn't true. This was the dark Venus.

Leo POV:

We all headed in from the bottom floor. I knew she was here. All I wanted to do was take off. But we needed to stuck to the plan.

"Stay in your pairs. Divide and conquer. If you see Shredder, do not engage. Call for back-up on the shell cell." I watched as Mikee and Iris went one way, Donnie and Athena another. Raph and Bellona stayed and followed behind me.
"Don't you get it in your head to go after Shredder either. Or after her alone. We do this as a team."

Athena POV:

The Foot soldiers started to pour in around us. I could see Mikee and Iris fighting on the opposite side. Then a voice resounded, that made me shudder.

"Welcome home my daughters. And to your 'friends', we will eliminate them, soon enough."

Leo POV:

"Girls! Go look for Venus! Guys," I readied for an attack, "Let's do this.

Venus POV:

I breathed. I gasped and looked up at the ceiling. The dark faded from around my eyes like I had been trapped under ice water. I dragged myself to my feet.

"Venus! Venus!" I heard the calls of my sisters.

"Here," I said softly. As I pulled myself up, they came over to me quickly. Iris hugged me tight. I winced. Why did I hurt?

"Venus are you alright?" Athena looked concerned.

"Yes... No... Maybe. Ask me later. Where are the others?" I looked around, part of me worried about a trick. The ceiling rumbled above us, dust following.

"Uh, that would be them." Bellona glanced up at me, seeming nervous to get back to the fight.

"Do not worry Bellona. I'm sure they will join us soon." The four of us turned to look up at and see the real Shredder standing in the doorway.

Leo POV:

I charged. All my training, all the years of battling Shredder went out the window. He gently cocked his head to the side, as if examining a small insignificant bug. I snapped back to focus as his hand came at me, claws poised to gut me. I lunged over his head.

"Leo!" Donnie had taken up my fight, Raph and Mikee hot on his heels. I whirled, sending a blow to his lower back. He turned, glaring red eyes staring back at me. I attacked again sending him to the ground.

"Where is she?" Anger pulsed in my voice. I knelt, on knee pressed to Shredders chest. He chuckled.

"You are so dull. Do you really think this is more than a robot, controlled from a secure location? I am not threatened. But they are."
