Rise of the TMNT: My Version

Minotaur Maze

On the rooftops, Raph and Mikey are showing off their mystic weapons. Leo did the same but it was only a small portal.

Midnight Lycanroc: (laughs) That little portal can take you across the street! Not all the way to New Jersey! You gotta be crazy to think that this can take you to Jersey!

Raichu: It can! Leo just need some more practice on his portal skills.

Leo: Right! Just need more practicing.

Donnie: You know this crystal that I got when we were at Draxum's place? It has some interesting elements combine with the magic and the...

Leo: Get to the point!

Donnie: To put it simply, this crystal gives me the ability to see mutants in disguise.

Tsareena: That sounds interesting, darling.

Male Meowstic: Yeah it is. Now we can see if there's any mutants who disguise themselves as human. Quite interesting indeed...

Raichu: So what do you see?!

Donnie: I see... a pharmacy. And what do we have here ha-ahhhhh?

Raichu: What is it?!

Donnie: It looks like some kind of fire mutant thing.

The fire mutant move here hand back and forth until a portal open. She enters it and it closes afterwards.

Mikey: She went through the wall!

Donnie: Interesting. I think she went into some kind of mystical pizza place.

Mikey: Pizza! My blood suggies are getting low. I need pizza really bad!

Leo: Then let's go down there and check it out. This could be quite an adventure.

Raichu: Right! Let's go!

[Meanwhile]

Blythe: So why did you want me to come with you?

Scylla: Because of the monsters! There has been weird things going on in this city! And I have to find out what it could be!

Blythe: Monsters don't exists.

Scylla: They do exists and I'll prove it! What I know is monsters have secret places that only they know. So we're gonna go and follow the monsters.

Blythe: Alright. Let's do it... Then I gotta get home before my mom gets worried.

Scylla: It's gonna be quick. I promise.

Blythe: Okay... Let's go then. (starts walking)

Scylla: Right! (starts walking) I wonder what type of monster we'll see. Mummies? Vampires? Maybe even Frankenstein?

Blythe: Not sure but I don't think we'll be meeting them.

[WHOOSH]

Blythe: What was that?!

Scylla: Monsters... Let's follow the silhouettes.

Blythe: Um...

They run and hide behind a pharmacy.

Scylla: (shushes) We should be quiet.

[Turtles]

Leo: Let me do this. I'm the prettiest turtle so I should open this. (move his hand back and forth)

The skull painting sticks out its tongue to raspberry at Leo.

Raichu: Well that was rude!

Raph: Step aside, pretty boy! Raph's got this! (move his hand back and forth)

This causes his hand to glow and the portal open. Raph, Donnie, and Mikey enters with Leo being behind them.

Everyone: Whoa~...

Male Meowstic: What is this place?

Tsareena: It looks like some kind of restaurant.

Midnight Lycanroc: Awesome!

Raph: Now hold on. This is our first time being in this... restaurant establishment.

Leo: Guys, I think I'm stuck. (pulls himself in and rubs his head) Much better.

Julia: Why hello, boys. Welcome! (winks)

Leo: (whistles) What a beauty! The name's Leonardo. You can call me Leo or Leon. What's yours, Angel?

Julia: I'm Julia Dingo. A waitress here. You must be new.

Raph: Yeah we are!

Julia: Well follow me and I'll take you to your table. Then you can order anything you want.

Mikey: Okay! Do you have pizza?! I could really go for some pizza!

Julia: Sure thing! I'll tell the chef you want some pizza.

Mikey: Yes! I'm gonna love this place!

[Scylla and Blythe]

Blythe: Why are we here? It's just a normal graffiti.

Scylla: Looks can be deceiving, my good friend. (move her hand back and forth)

Her hand glows and the portal opens.

Scylla: See? It's a portal of sorts.

Blythe: How did you do that?

Scylla: Just a lucky guess. We should head in there.

Blythe: Right! Now I'm getting excited!

[Leo]

Raichu: This place is amazing... So many mutants at once...

Leo: You can say that again, Lemon. It's so cool...

Then they overheard two dog mutants talking about being the champions.

Raichu: "Prove you're the champion"... That sounds cool! Let's check it out.

Leo: Right!

The two enters and sees all the photos of previous champions. They were about to enter the red curtain but stopped by a skeleton.

Senor Hueso: And where do you think you're going?

Raichu: Ugh, a detached arm!

Leo: Let's be polite, Lemon. You see, Bone Man. Is it okay if I call you Bone Man? We were about to enter that red curtain behind you.

Senor Hueso: This is for champions only. And you're not a champion.

Leo: But I am a champion. And I can prove it.

Senor Hueso: You sure? This is a very difficult challenge.

Leo: We can handle it. No problem.

Senor Hueso: Alright... So you're gonna do this alone?

Raichu: Actually, make that four since we have other people with us.

[Mikey, Donnie, and Raph]

Mikey: Sweet salvation.

Leo slaps the pizza out of Mikey's hands. The pizza landed on a frog mutant which he ate it.

Mikey: My salvation!

Leo: No, no. Don't eat that mediocre food when you can have the world's greatest pizza!

Donnie: Oh please! Every place in New York claims to have the world's greatest pizza.

Leo: True but this one's behind a red velvet rope. See? Behind it. Red velvet rope. (gets slapped) So you know it's good!

They enter the room which is revealed as a pizza-shaped maze.

Raichu: We just have to go through this seemingly straight-forward maze. (echoes)

Midnight Lycanroc: What?! We didn't sign up for this!

Mikey: Yeah! My tum-tums are starving.

Leo: No worries. We'll get there as long as you follow me.

Raph: Whatever you say, Leo.

???: You wouldn't survive in this maze even if you try, shell-for-brains!

Everyone: Huh? (turns around)

Leo: Mutant bunnies... That's new.

???: We're not bunnies. We're hares, idiot!

Leo: What's the difference?

Raph: Just who are you?

Iclyn: Let me introduce everyone. I'm Icyln, the tech genius here. This is Buck, our hotheaded leader. Zane, our cool-headed trickster and rebel. And the youngest one is Cassie, our artist. We're called the Cotton-Tail Gang because we are species of hares. Buck is the mountain hare. I'm a snowshoe. Zane's the scrub hare and Cassie is the cape hare. Do you have questions that need to be answer?

Leo: Yes. Why are you here for?

Buck: Proving we're champions! Looks like you're doing the same thing!

Raph: What is he talking about?

Leo: Nothing! Nothing at all! Let's just do this maze and grab that pizza shall we?

Buck: Don't ignore me! My group can beat your group in this maze to get the world's greatest pizza!

Leo: Oh really. Well me and my bros are gonna get that pizza at any means. So if you want to challenge us then let's do it.

Buck: Fine by me! I do love a good challenge! You're on, turtle!

Leo: Actually, it's Leonardo. Call me Leo or Leon.

Buck: More like Lame-onardo! (runs)

Leo: Hey! Don't hop away from me! (runs after Buck) And I'm not lame! I'm cool!

Buck: Whatever, dude! (enters maze) I can beat you 'cause hares are better then turtles!

Leo: (enters maze) And what makes you said that? Is it because turtles are slow?

Buck: Yup! And hares are faster then turtles! Like 10 times faster then you could ever be!

Leo: Well I guess you haven't met ninja turtles. We have been trained under our pop. So we're pretty fast. Maybe just as fast as you.

Buck: That's impossible! You can't be as fast as me!

Leo: I'll prove it to you. Now we should head to the left. (screen shifts) And left again. (screen shifts)

Buck: Oh great! Way to go, genius! You got us lost!

Leo: Now calm down. I know where we're going...

Buck: This time, I'll lead! You follow!

Leo: Fine, fine. No need to get hopping mad. Eh? Eh?

Buck: Is it because I'm a hare?

Leo: Yes. A type of bunny.

Buck: Call me bunny one more time or I'll kick your shell in half. I'm serious...

Leo: Okay. I won't call you that no more.

Buck: Good!

Raichu: (groans) This is gonna be longer...

[Blythe and Scylla]

Julia: Welcome, girls. What are you two humans doing in a mutant restaurant?

Scylla: We're sorry that we're here but I'm studying the many monsters that are living in the shadows of New York. I'm Scylla and this Blythe. What's your name?

Julia: Julia Dingo. I'm a mutant dingo. Are you here to order or do you need some information about something? If it's the second one, I can tell you. I know everyone that comes here. New and regular customers.

Blythe: (looks around) Hey, what's that?

Julia: Ah yes. This is where the Minotaur maze is. You see, many mutants or monsters go in this maze to prove they're the champion. If they complete it in 30 minutes or less, the pizza is free. But there's some rules that comes with it.

Scylla: Like what?

Julia: Rule #1; Using mystic powers is forbidden. This is all about skill, speed, agility, and timing. Rule #2; All Pokemon can use their moves except for Fly, Dig, and Teleport. It's to make sure there's no cheating involve.

Scylla: Can anyone enter?

Julia: Yeah. Like anybody can participate in there. At their own risk.

Blythe: Own risk?

Scylla: I see... Hm...

[Leo and Buck]

Buck: Ah-ha! Look, see what happens when I take the lead! They make the pizza right in front of you!

They see a cheese grater monster, a pizza roller monster, and an oven monster making some pizza.

Leo: Cool! (walks to them) Hello, everyone. I see you're all making some pizza. So we would like to take the pizza to go.

They give them angry looks.

Buck: I think they're mad at us.

Leo: How can you tell?

Buck: The eyes... The eyes give them those angry looks.

Leo: Oh~... So now what?

Buck: We fight, of course! We got no other choice!

Raichu: Then let the fighting commence!

[Meanwhile]

Raph: What?! Leo didn't tell us about that!

Iclyn: I see... Well it's true. We are not allow to use our mystic powers in this maze. And all Pokemon can't use Fly, Dig nor Teleport to the center where the world's greatest pizza is currently at. Can't believe Leo didn't tell you about that.

Raph: Especially the part about getting a photo taking and being a champion! I'm gonna have a serious talk with him once he comes back here!

Donnie: Most likely he and Buck got lost.

Iclyn: 99% correct. Buck always has horrible sense of directions to point of getting lost. Being the stubborn hare he is, he won't admit it because he doesn't want to look soft to us nor to the others. So 99% chance he got himself and Leo lost in this maze. Let's get to the center of the maze.

Everyone: Right!

[Buck and Leo]

Buck: (panting) We made it out alive...

Raichu: Almost alive...

Leo: And look. There's the pizza. Right there. I'm gonna get... (wall appears) there?

Suddenly, spikes and flames comes out and the wall starts slowly moving at them.

Buck: (screams) Lame-onardo, do something! Get us outta here!

Leo: But I can't. We're not allow to use our mystic powers. And if I do that, I'll never get my photo and put it on the wall of champions.

Raichu: Leo, who cares about a stupid photo?! Our lives are in danger! Just do it!

Leo reluctantly tries to open the portal but couldn't.

Leo: I can't do it. I don't have any mystic mojo... I'm useless.

Buck: Yes you are!

Raichu: Not helping! Leo, you can do it. I don't care about you being the champion and having your photo taken to the wall of champions. Our lives are more important then a stupid photo. You'll always a champion in my eyes.

Buck: And if we die here, I'm gonna haunt you for the rest of your life.

Leo: You'll really think I should?

Buck: Just hurry it up!

Leo: Alright! Here goes nothing!

Leo successfully opens a portal and the three enters it before the walls squished them. They ended up in the center of the maze.

Iclyn: Took you guys long enough.

Buck: Iclyn! Cassie! Zane! So glad to see you guys! You never BELIEVE what we went through! But I'll tell you that later. Now it's time to get the pizza.

Leo: Oh no you don't. (climbs) I'm getting the pizza.

Buck: Nah-uh! (climbs) I'll be the one getting the pizza!

They grab the pizza box at the same time and then begin to tug on it.

Leo: Let go! I saw it first!

Buck: No! You let it go since I was leading!

Leo: I was leading you first! So I should take it!

Buck: I should take the pizza! I deserve it!

Leo: I deserve it more!

Buck: Well I deserve it even more!

Leo: I deserve even even more! Now let go or else!

Buck: Or else what?!

???: You don't deserve this pizza! You have broken my rules and now you must pay for it!

Buck: (screams and falls) What was that?! Did that statue just talk?!

Iclyn: Interesting...

Vines comes out and starts attacking them. Eventually, they were caught except for their Pokemon.

Raichu: You stupid cow lady! Let them go right now!

Minotaur: Oh no! They had broken my rules! They must be punish for cheating their way to the center of the maze!

Raichu: I don't think so! Thunderbolt~!

Minotaur: Come on out, Aggron!

Aggron: Aggron!

Aggron absorbs the Thunderbolt.

Raichu: Huh?

Male Meowstic: An Aggron is a Steel/Rock-type. Electric moves won't effect it.

Raichu: Now you tell me!

Minotaur: Aggron, use Blizzard!

Aggron: Blizzard!

Pokemon: (grunting in pain)

Tsareena: Not Blizzard...

Midnight Lycanroc: Don't give up, everyone! We just have to defeat Aggron and then save everyone else!

Raichu: That's simple! Watch and learn, babies. Disarming Voice~!

Aggron: (grunts in pain) That hurts...

Raichu: Now's our chance!

But before they can attack, the vines caught them.

Minotaur: Not on my watch. Now it's punishment time!

Leo: Please don't. I used my mystic powers to save Buck and Lemon. Punish me. His champion.

Everyone: YES! PUNISH HIM!

Minotaur: Everyone gets punished for cheating. Not the person who used it. But everyone that has involve in this maze!

[Meanwhile]

Scylla: A Minotaur...

Blythe: We have to save them.

Scylla: We should. But we don't have weapons.

Blythe: We got our Pokemon. Pachirisu, help us out!

Pachirisu: Pachi-pachi-cha!

Scylla: You too, Mandibuzz!

Mandibuzz: Mandibuzz!

Blythe: We want you to distract the Minotaur and her Aggron.

Mandibuzz: Easy-peazy! (leaves with Pachirisu)

Scylla: Hm... Now what?

Poco: I may have something that can help you. (takes out mask) This is the mystic mask. It allows the user to transform into any monster they want. But if you want to change into another monster, you have to take it off, say what monster you want, and then put it back on to transform into that monster.

Scylla: Cool! Let me try it out! (grabs mask) Hm... I know! Harpy mask!

The mask transforms into an harpy face mask. She puts it on and transform into an harpy.

Scylla: Look at me! I look amazing!

Blythe: And what about me?

Poco: (takes out halberd) This halberd can create sonic blast after each slice. The faster you slice the bigger the sonic blast will become. (gives her halberd) Please use it responsibly. (bows before leaving)

Scylla: Wait! Who are you? I know you're an elf but who are you?

Poco: My name's Poco. I will help you any way I can. Now I must get going back to the Hidden City. Good luck on using you new mystic weapons. (creates portal)

He steps in and the portal closes.

[Turtles and Cotton-Tail Gang]

Minotaur: Get away, you stupid Pokemon!

Aggron: Icy Wind!

Mandibuzz: Gust! Gust! Gust! Gust! Gust!

Minotaur: (growling) This is getting ridiculous! Aggron, Hyper Beam!

Aggron: Hyper...

[SLASH]

Raichu: Huh?

Leo: We're free!

Blythe: You guy okay?

Buck: A human?!

Blythe: We came here to save you after all.

Buck: We?!

Scylla: (lands) Me. I'm Scylla. Nice to meet'cha.

Minotaur: (growling aggressively) Now you're making me mad! Aggron, use Earthquake!

Aggron: Earthquake!

Everyone: (screams)

Raichu: (charges at Aggron) Take this! Iron Tail!

Aggron grabs Lemon's tail and throws him at the Minotaur statue.

Raichu: (groans) That was a good throw...

Leo: Lemon!

Aggron: You will now be punished. Dragon Claw!

But Leo protects Lemon and got scratched by Dragon Claw.

Raph, Mikey, and Donnie: Leo!

Raichu: Leo? Why did you do that?

Leo: Because you're my partner... (grunts) That hurts... But it's worth it. I know now this has become out of control. I was over my head. What was I thinking? Risking my life for a dumb photo at the champion hall? I'm sorry I put you through this, Lemon. It's my fault.

Raichu: No it's not. I know how you feel about being the coolest! I have been your partner for years! Ever since I was a Pichu! I always encourage you to be the top! Okay, maybe sometimes but I know exactly how you feel.

Leo: So let's take that Aggron on as a team!

Raichu: Right, partner!

Leo: Minotaur, we challenge you to a one-on-one Pokemon battle! Lemon vs your Aggron! Winner gets the free pizza! Loser gets punished!

Minotaur: Fine! But don't expect me to go soft on ya'!

Leo: We won't either! (stands up) Lemon, use Iron Tail!

Raichu: Iron Tail!

Minotaur: Dodge it and use Iron Head!

Aggron dodges Lemon's Iron Tail.

Aggron: Iron Head!

Raichu: (screams) That hurts...

Leo: Don't give up, Lemon! We can beat that Aggron as long as we work together!

Raichu: Right, Leo!

Minotaur: Aggron, use Harden and then use Metal Claw on Raichu!

Aggron: Harden! (charges)

Donnie: That's a neat set of moves. Harden can raise the user's defense.

Raichu: Have some of this! Brick Break! Huh?! But I thought Fighting-types move are a Steel-type weakness!

Minotaur: But Harden can raise a user's defense! Now use Iron Claw!

Aggron: Metal Claw!

Raichu: (screams) (groans) This hurts so much...

Minotaur: So are you giving up now?!

Leo: No way! Lemon and I don't give up! We work hard and we won't stop until we take you down... Lemon, I'm counting on you. I know you can do it. I believe in you!

Raichu: (thinking) He's right. We're heroes. And heroes don't give up easily. (as he stands up) We're doing this for the free pizza and getting our picture on a wall. Even if we cheated at least this can show her who she's messing with. I can't let Leonardo down. Can't let anybody down no matter how tough it is! (starts glowing)

Buck: What the?!

Tsareena: Why is Lemon glowing? WHY is Lemon glowing?!

Midnight Lycanroc: But I thought Raichu don't have another evolution line.

Male Meowstic: This is something very different. It doesn't appear to be Mega Evolution.

Buck: Then what is it?! Any explanation!

Raichu's brown areas and yellow cheeks changes to blue. His lightning-shaped tail and the inside of his ears changes into light blue. Lemon's right eye changes color to dark blue. White fur appears on the back of his neck and it ends at each side of his front shoulders. Then a blue mask-shaped painting appear over his eyes similar to Leo's mask.

Midnight Lycanroc: Whoa!

Tsareena: Lemon?

Raichu: (checks himself out) Whoa! Look at me! I look awesome! Let's test it out!

Leo: Right! Use Thunderbolt!

Minotaur: Ha! Thunderbolt?! You must be crazy! You know Electric moves don't work on-

When Lemon uses Thunderbolt (which also changes color to blue) on Aggron, he screams in pain.

Minotaur: Impossible! That shouldn't happen!

Aggron: How are you hurting me with Thunderbolt?!

Donnie: (puts on goggles) This is interesting. Lemon's aura is so powerful. It's off the charts! I never seen anything like it!

Leo: Now let's use one powerful move! But first, Electroweb!

Raichu: Electroweb!

Aggron: (screams in pain)

Leo: And now for the finale, Dynamic Punch!

Raichu: Dy~...namic~... PUNCH~!!!!!

[BOOM]

After the smoke clears, Aggron has swirls for eyes as he fainted.

Minotaur: What?!

Leo: We did it, Lemon! You were awesome out there!

Raichu: Yeah I was! I did it! I did it! I did it! (returns to normal) I did it! I did it! Now it's time for some free pizza!

Minotaur: Aggron return. You did a great job on defeating my Aggron. Nobody had ever defeated him in a one-on-one Pokemon battle before. It really shows that you two have a powerful bond.

Leo: Why thank you. But is that the reason why you made this maze?

Minotaur: Yes! This is the reason why I made this maze. Well other then having anyone that are willing to do anything to get free pizza without using mystic powers. But anyway, you have shown that you risk your life to save your Pokemon. Sorry about earlier.

Leo: It's alright. Even though I won't get my picture taken on the wall of champions, Lemon is more important then a stupid title and photo.

Raichu: That's what I was telling you! (shaking his head) Sometimes you don't seem to be listening to what I have to say...

Minotaur: Also, everyone will have a taste of my pizza! I know everyone claims to have the world's greatest pizza! But that's nothing compare to mine! Try it out!

The vines feeds them with a slice of pizza.

Mikey: That is good!

Donnie: I regret nothing at all.

Iclyn: 100% delicious.

Leo: Totally good! 10 out of 10!

Minotaur: Why thank you! Now it's time to take a picture on the wall of cheaters! You guys are the first to ever cheat on MY maze!

Leo: Well since we're taking pictures, make sure you get on my good side. I wanna look perfect.

Being annoyed by Leo, the Minotaur attack him with the vine and then got their picture taken on the wall of cheaters.
