TMNG (Book 1)

Fuketsuna

On a dark night, the Lotus Ninjas are heading toward the Kraang lab in the Sonicruiser. They heard about the Kraang experimenting in an apartment building on Donna's Kraang radar, so they decided to go to the city for a checkout.

"Ellie, are we close to the lab?" Lee asked as she looked back at Ellie's station.

"Turn right to the next four blocks and we'll be there." Ellie said as she stared at the map.

As Lee turned the Sonicruiser to four blocks up ahead, the Lotus Ninjas finally arrived at the apartment building and parked the vehicle into the alleyway.

"Yup, this is the hidden Kraang lab alright." Donna said as she looked at the view screen from her station.

"Let's find out what the Kraang are up to and blow up the joint." Lee said.

"That's what I'm waiting for." Ella grinned.

The Lotus Ninjas exited the Sonicruiser and walked through the portal that Lee created into the apartment building, where they found the entire place was trashed with empty mutagen canisters, broken Kraang droids, and scattered overturned tables.

"Whoa. What a mess." Ellie said.

"Yeah, we miss all the fun." Ella said with a groan.

The Lotus Ninjas looked around the place to see more empty mutagen canisters on some of the standing tables.

"It looks like their mutagen experiments took all of them down." Lee said.

"They are actually experiments on mystical creatures." Donna informed as she studied a group of poster charts on all types of rare mystical creatures on the bulletin board. "Some of them are extremely rare that not even I heard about."

Ellie walked over to a nearby cabinet and opened it up to see good conditioned science equipment. She took out a centrifuge in her hands and heard something that made her look at the shadows above the team.

"Uh Donna, will one of the rare mystical creature look like centipedes?" Ellie asked.

"Yeah. They are called Fuketsunas." Donna answered. "Why you ask?"

"Will that be it?!" Ellie shouted, pointing her index finger to the shadows.

Lee, Ella, and Donna followed Ellie's pointed finger and looked up to see a centipede-like creature crawling out of the shadows. It was pale green-grey with black eyes, a dark blue nose, and four pairs of white inner legs. Its head also has a shape of a crown. It dropped down to the floor on its legs and began charging to attack the Lotus Ninjas.

"Gangway!" Lee yelled.

The Lotus Ninjas quickly dodged away from Fuketsuna, who turned around and charged toward the Lotus Ninjas again. Lee, Ellie, Donna, and Ella moved aside to hide behind the overturned table as Fuketsuna started searching around for them.

"We need a plan and fast." Lee said.

"I got one. I'll chained that thing down while you three attack." Ellie suggested. "All I have to do is get its attention."

"Okay, go for it." Lee said.

Ellie jumped from the table and moved behind Fuketsuna, causing the creature to his attention to the orange mystic kunoichi. Before the creature could attack, Ellie swiftly shot long chains made of solid air from her hands and launched it to restrain Fuketsuna tight with her strength.

"Now!" Lee called.

Lee, Ella, and Donna jumped to capture the creature, but Fuketsuna started crawling around that forced Ellie to fly into the wall. Lee, Ella, and Donna immediately ducked down to watch their youngest sister groan in pain. Donna sculpted a large fist from the ground to attack Fuketsuna, but the creature avoided the fist and crawled away as the fist started following after its movements by the purple mystic kunoichi's command. Ella extended her hands upwards to conjure a large ball of fire and then threw it at the creature. Fuketsuna dodged the attack and slithered past both Donna and Ella, causing the earthly fist to hit into the two mystics and threw them on top of Ellie. Lee swiftly summoned a stream of big bubbles from her hands at the creature multiple times, but Fuketsuna started charging forward to the blue mystic kunoichi while avoiding the stream at the same time. Fuketsuna jumped above Lee and attached itself on her face. As Lee was trying to get the creature off, Fuketsuna bit Lee's neck sharply and suddenly fell dead to the ground.
