Turtles Forever

Return To The Underground

In the lair, Mikey, and Raph and Mona are playing Frisbee while Leo was training. Yuuki was sitting down, reading silently. Donnie is in his lab. He didn't even notice Venus had walked in.

"What are you doing?" She asked.

"Research." Donnie briefly answered.

"Is there anything I can do to help?" Venus asked. She takes a paper off of his desk, only for Donnie to take it back and set it down.

"No. I got it. But thanks anyway." Donnie said not even looking up.

"Please, I want to help." Venus said.

"Then you can help me by going away. I can barely work with all of these distractions anyway." Donnie said as he was trying to ignore the playful loud yells of the Frisbee game going on and the training session.

"So that's all I am to you? An distraction?" Venus asked, hurt. But Donnie didn't hear her as he was still looking through the papers. "Fine, I will leave you to your work, Donatello. I'm sorry to bother you." Venus replied coldly. And She walked away leaving the olive green turtle alone to himself.

Donnie looked looked up to see that Venus had vanished and he looked around wondering where she had went. He went back into his work. Unbeknownst to the two of them, someone had been watching the whole thing the entire time, Yuuki.

Back to the Frisbee game with Raph and Mikey. "Coming at ya!" Mikey throws the Frisbee to Raph, but it goes too high and he misses. The disc flies towards Donnie.

"Yo Donnie, heads up!" Mikey calls out.

But he's too absorbed in his work to notice until it hits a stack of papers, sending them flying everywhere.

"Hey you guys!," Donnie yells out angrily as he grabs the disc "Can't you just leave me alone! I'm sick of all these interruptions! I can't work like this!" He throws the disc hard and Leo raises a hand, catching it in midair.

"Whoa, ease up, Donnie," Leo said. "You okay?"

"I know you ain't slept in day, bro?" Raph replied as they make their way towards him.

"Maybe, you're, I don't know, working too much," Mikey comments.

"I'm trying to find a cure for friends, trapped in the underground city," Donnie answered as he walks over to the computer with a crystal in his hand.

"That creepy place?" Mikey asked.

"Well, how do you think they feel? They're like prisoners down there." Donnie points out.

"Man, remember that spooky sole survivor guy?" Mikey answered.

"Remember what he said?" Donnie asked.

"As we speak, the power of the cavern's crystal moon is infusing your friends with its regenerative energy."

"I remember we had to put that wackbag on ice." Raph adds.

"And when our friends strayed too far from the crystal moon, they turn right back into monsters." Donnie continues. "We made them a promise, remember? A promise to find a cure, and I know the cure has something to do with these crystals, I just don't know what," Donnie begins to walk back into his lab, Raph was about to say something but Leo stops him.
