The Final Episode (TMNT 1987)

According To Plan

(Lord Dregg)

I sat back into my chair, looking over earth from my viewing window.

What a pathetic looking planet, small and so insignificant. What few resources it does have, its inhabitants foolishly squander.  Soon, soon it will be nothing more then scattered pieces of rock and dust, floating around this miserable galaxy.

But for now, back to some more pressing matters. The female, known as Lotus Blossom.

Eventually she'd side with the turtles. I've planned for it. She's known the turtles before I made them outlaws, Her betrayal was inevitable, but i was counting on it.

So that's why I planted a beautiful little device into her phone. Helps me listen to everything that goes on.

And to prove my point, why not listen in. Our last chat was a little stressful for the female.

Hiding something are we Lotus?

I called for the microbots to bring me my communicator.

Within seconds a hand like shape made up of thousands of tiny vibration robotic micro organisms was by my side, carrying a black rectangular box. A red button sticking out from it in the middle.

I extended an arm over pressing the button, my eyes never leaving the view of Earth.

Once the button was pushed, a crackly noise came out, probably from the fabric of her clothes.

Then soon earthly words came out of the little box.

"Too long." Came a male voice

"4 years too long." Came Lotus's voice

"You've been counting too?" Said the male's voice a little anxiously.

Then there was a long pause before the male's voice started up again.

"What do you want Lotus?"

Leonardo, that's who the female is talking too. No surprise, I've been waiting for this.

"Do I have to want something in order to see an old friend?" She stated.

"An oceans a long way to cross just for a visit, last time I heard, you were in Japan." Leonardo said.

"A job opportunity actually, a wealthy employer is paying me 1.5 million of your dollars, and I figured, since I was in the neighborhood, I'd stop by and say hello." She said

"1.5 MILLION AMERICAN DOLLARS! Who is this person Madonna?!" He yelled in surprise

"I cannot say, client confidentiality." She said

Hmmm she did not tell him who she is working for... Interesting, I could use this information to my advantage as well.

"Why is this place deserted, where is your family?" She asked worriedly

"Have you heard of a Lord Dregg?" He asked

"Goodness yes, I believe the whole world knows him." She replied

Good, then they'll know who will destroy their mess of a planet called Earth.

"Do you know what he's done? He came down like some Angel, then he turned the whole city against us. Branded us outlaws, we even had wanted posters made with our faces on them. He's made it unsafe for me and my family to stay and live in our lair.... Our home. He's murdered Krang in cold blood and left Shredder a pitiful mess!" He said.

What the reptile said brought a smile to my face. A pitiful mess? Perfect.

"So it is true, you are in hiding. I am truly sorry for that. But what is this I hear? Dregg has killed Krang? She asked

Remorse, over what. It was not her fault they're in hiding or in pain, but no worry, she'll soon be apart of that pain...

"Yes, he's killed Krang..." He started, but before he could go any further I pushed the red button, there was a click and the recording stopped.

Human emotions, feelings... Worthless and I don't care for it.

I waved the microbots away before I leaned back further into my seat, still looking at Earth. The microbots still scurrying around finishing up my latest work.

This is good, Lotus has done what I expected and has sided with the turtles.

The news of Shredders emotional damage brought the inklings of a smile to my lips. It was an added bonus to know he was suffering. He was never Villain enough by my account. He talked, a big game and wreaked much havoc and destruction, true, but he was friends with Krang. A true Villain doesn't have any friends. Only minions, and associates to manipulate and use.

Krang was no better either. I often pondered as I stared down onto Earth, as what about it had caused him to become so attached. He stayed and attempted takeover after takeover unsuccessfully, instead of just destroying the planet and moving on.

The Planetary Incinerator is almost complete. Everything is going to plan.

I closed my eyes, picturing my plan going through, earth disappearing without a trace, the turtles helpless to stop it.

It made me bring up both of my hands together, entwining my fingers, and resting them near my chin.... I relaxed in that pose for a moment before an "excellent" slithered out.

"You will never get away with this!"  The female mutant hissed from cage across the room.

She pounded against the force field with her balled up fists. Beside her, the other empty cells just waited for their planned occupants.

Females, always with the shouting...  I shook my head, glad that my species had no such creatures.

She had been rather difficult to locate, but eventually I tracked her down to a self built laboratory in the Brazilian rainforest.

You see, I intended to cause pain to the turtles in every sense of the word. Not just to the body and mind, but to the heart as well.

"Silence if you please Mona Lisa, I warn you now that your prison, along with your bindings are live with electricity, all I would have to do is give the command, and fried lizard will be tonight's main course."

That shut her up.

I leaned back once more and enjoyed the silence.

Everything was going according to plan.

I rolled my eyes as I heard her whisper to the 4th wall.

"Betcha didn't see that one coming."
