As the day continued, the statue generals continued on their mission to get all the monsters they needed to return. They collected 10 out of the 13.

Finally, April and Casey were in their apartment while the news was going on. Casey was on the couch, reading the newspaper, as April was training with a wooden katana.

"Witnesses say there are holes in the floors as if something or someone had just blasted straight down through them, leaving authorities scratching their heads," the reporter replied, making April stop her training.

"Well, at least some people care about justice these days," Casey sighed, reading an article about the Night Watcher.

Raph had told Jamie to wait on the roof while he got Casey.

"Hey, Casey," Raph called.

"Raph?" Casey said, lowering his paper.

"Meet me on the roof, okay?" Raph remarked.

"What is it?" Casey wondered.

"The roof. You know what the roof is, don't you?" Raph asked.

"Pushy sidekick," Casey mumbled and they climbed up the fire escape while April kept watching the news.

"We've gotten this image in from an amateur cameraman, and I do stress 'amateur'," the reporter continued, showing a piece of footage that showed one of the four generals.

"Casey, come look at this," April said.

There was no answer, so when she turned around and saw him not there, she walked to the window.

"Be safe," she whispered.

Casey got up there after Raph, grabbed his mask and bat, then noticed Jamie.

"Uh, I'm not trying to sound mean, but what's she doing here?" Casey asked.

"Splinter's been training her, so I thought she could tag along so I could see how she's been doing," Raph answered.

"Well, good to see you again," he smiled.

"Ditto," she responded, doing the same.

"So, what's this all about?" Casey asked.

"We got bigger things to worry about tonight than criminals," Raph explained.

"Like what?" Casey wondered.

That's when a gargoyle-looking monster flew above them and screeched into the night.

"Like that," Jamie answered.

"Whoa," Casey exclaimed.

"Come on," Raph said.

They ran after it, jumping rooftops as they kept going. Once it was no where in sight, they stopped at the edge of a roof.

"I think we lost it," Jamie remarked.

"It's gotta be around here somewhere," Raph pointed out.

"I don't think so," Casey disagreed.

They all squatted on the edge until out of no where, the gargoyle flew up, making them all jump. It was tied up around its feet and darts were being fired at it. As it was being pulled down, it grabbed the ledge, leaving some cracked concrete then it hit the abandoned car below.

"What's going on, guys?" Casey asked.

"Did I mention we ran into a monster last night?" Raph mentioned.

"No, you kind of failed to tell me about that one, buddy," Casey responded then added, "You do know I only have a wooden bat, don't you?"

That's when they noticed the Foot were the ones who shot the darts and tied up the monster.
