The Final Episode (TMNT 1987)

Sweet Victory

Irma's POV-

What just happened?!?

Ok I get that we were kidnapped and tortured, that we almost crashed into earth, and why were standing here and not dead...

But what I didn't get is Aprils reaction to being kissed by the Shredder. She had a look of awe on her dumbstruck face.

"Please, call me April." She squeaked out, blushing furiously. This only made the Shredder smile like a little kid on Christmas morning.

Wait... Never mind, I've saw it coming from a mile away, evil or not, he was gorgeous, I'd always thought so.

But right now up close and personal, it kinda makes me... Jealous. That kiss was so full of passion and love. If just watching that kiss made me feel such strong emotions, than I can only imagine what April feels like.

I only wish a certain someone would feel the same way about me... As I thought those words I looked up at Donatello. He was standing along side his brothers and also looking over at April and Shredder. All were smiling, especially Michelangelo, who had the hugest grin plastered on his face. "I don't know whether to laugh or be really sick!" He exclaimed sarcastically.

"Plot twist.." Shrugged Rapheal nonchalantly.

I couldn't help but smile as well, and once more I looked at Donatello. I just wish he'd notice me, he never does... I don't know exactly when it started, but these last couple of seasons, Iv been noticing just how incredibly intelligent he is... And not just that, funny and quite adorable once you look passed the green.

When I finally looked at Donatello's facial features, that's when ours eyes locked onto each other's.

We just stared at each other for a while till Donatello got this funny look on his face "Ah why not!"

And like something out of a one of my many romance novels, he just walked on over to me, Wrapped an arm around my waist and pulled me close. He brought his lips down towards mine and kissed them tenderly. It took me by surprise, but I quickly adjusted.

"That's my brother!" Said Raphael, who I knew was wearing a smirk over there.

"What a ladies man." Called his other brother, Michelangelo.

We broke apart after their comments and stared into each other's eyes, smiling. "Hmm, interesting.." He said aloud as if noting to himself. My heart nearly stopped, was that just another one of his experiments!?

He smiled, gently straitening out my glasses. "So that's why they never gave me a love interest... It was supposed to be you all along." He chuckled before kissing me again.

I was on cloud nine! Even though today started off really rough, I think this few seconds of heaven made the bad things just completely vanish....

I started to giggle to myself. Looks like it took the series finale to get my wish, but hey if that's what it takes, then that's what it takes!

"I am so proud of you my sons." Said Splinter, appearing out of the crowd, beaming with obvious pride. "Though you are all still grounded for a month though." He laughed.

Everything seemed to be going great, loud shouts of joy and laughs were going round from villain to hero. Everybody happy and ecstatic that everyone was ok, that they had survived and that earth was save once more. We were swarmed by various heroes and villains. Did I miss something?

"Donatello, please tell me why half the New York mob is throwing us a victory party?"

"Oh you see...." He started, 30 seconds and a flashback later, I knew exactly what was going on.

Then from behind me came something even louder than the conversations of everybody, loud stomping and feet. I turned around to see two huge mutants none other than Rocksteady and Bebop running towards Shredder.

"Boss!" They both cried at the same time. Their voice booming through the crowds. They didn't stop running till they reached The Shredder and had picked him up into a huge group hug.

Donatello and his brothers, along with April and I all started to laugh. Even Krang was snickering at his comrade. But Shredder didn't yell at them to drop him or to stop, he just let it happen. And the best part was, he actually seemed to enjoy it, he looked at peace.

"Krang, stop your snickering and get in here. For once, we've won!" Shredder motioned to his friend.

"Oh I wouldn't be caught dead.." He started to argue before Shredder reached out from the mass of giant limbs and grabbed onto the arm of his android body, yanking him into the hug. Krangs little pink face bunched up in frustration. But then he relaxed. "Oh, alright, just this once." He agreed wrapping his android arms around each of the mutants and his physical ones around the stomach of the Shredder.

I pulled Donatello towards me and into our own little cuddle fest. How could anything get any better! Everything was in its own way perfect.

Then after a long while, the "Technogang" let go of each other a stood back. They all wore smiles on their faces.

"Hey boss, me and Rocksteady just want to tell ya that we are glad you guys are ok... We- we love ya. " Bebop said a little shyly

"We wouldn't know what to do without ya..." Added Rocksteady.

"Come on boys, sappiness is for Girl Scouts, not henchmen." Shredder told his goons, crossing his arms. But a small smile found its way back to his lips. "But know that I am proud of you, my moronic mutants."

"Hey.." Cut in Krang. "Our moronic mutants."

"Come on boys... We're out of here." Called the gangster, Pinky Mcfingers. Soon most of the villains were starting to leave.

"Wait!" Leonardo called out, stepping forward. Everyone stopped and turned to listen. "I know we are not on the same terms, or even the same sides. But for what it's worth... Thank you all. You were there when earth needed you, we won't forget this."

"Listen here kid." Answered Rat King, apparently taking it upon himself to speak for the villain community as a whole. "Being evil is something we enjoy, you can't blame us, we are just written that way. We don't mind robbing a couple banks or science labs just for the heck of it..."

"Here here!" Agreed Don Turtelli. Followed by several whistles and cheers of support by other villains.

"But this is our planet. You can mutate it, pollute it, or try to take it over. Go For it. But nobody just destroys it. No warlord wannabe destroys it without one hell of a fight." With that profound statement the Rat King left, walking towards the nearest manhole cover. The other villains began to disputes as well.

"Job well done." Baxter Stockman complimented Krang.

Krang looked up at the flying mutant, and for the first time I saw a look of what seemed to be guilt on his face. "Thank you Stockman. And the same to you." He said with sincerity.

And as Baxter turned to fly away Krang raised his tentacle. "Wait!" He called. Baxter stopped in his tracks and turned around.

"Yes?" He said a little nervously.

Krang let out some air like he was about to finally own up to something. "Stockman... I'm sorry for what I did to you. It was inexcusable of me and quite ruthless in every way. I don't know why I had to do that to you, but I did. And so, what I'm trying to say is, Baxter Stockman, I'm sorry for mutating you and I will try in every way possible to reverse you back into a human."

For awhile Baxter was dead silent, he just starred at Krang. In the middle of starring at him, he had stopped flying and decided to stand.

Then from the corner of his fly eye, I say something that resembled a tear. "You really mean it?" he asked with a hint of suspicion. Krang simply nodded. "Thank you very much!" He cried rather excitedly.

And from that point on, I knew everything was going to be ok, even better then ok. Life was going to be different, in a very good way, and that was going to be amazing.
