"No tricks," they heard, the pause making their stomach do flips because that voice of their nemesis, it was so sickly sweet and fake that anyone could have known he was lying miles away. But it was towards a child - their brother - whose mind was filled with innocence and trust that have built between the two in such a short time that made them all sick to their stomachs. "We are all friends here."

Out of nowhere, Mikey slid underneath the Shredder and scooped Donnie up before taking a mad dash out of the tunnel.

"What the—you fool!" Shredder turned to an incoming Sai and blocked it with his gauntlet. His muscle tense as he was able to push the Sai out of Raphael's hand. It spun to the ground, and Raphael looked at him with undeniable anger.

"You monster!" Raph yelled, coarse and raw, raising his other Sai to attack, but Leonardo swooped in and blocked the incoming gauntlet towards his brother.

He swept his feet back, sword pointed at Saki.

"Monster?" Shredder said, almost in defensive and hurt. "I was doing you three a favor, and it sure seemed my planned work for you to have followed me here." Despite the mask, they knew he was smiling, they knew that his plans may as well been calculated and cruel. He planned to kill their brother for—for what?

"You serve no honor, Saki." Leo deepened his voice, his eyes never leaving Shredder's, as if he scared if he blinked, he would attack.

"You don't get to decide what I serve, child." Half of Saki's body illumined in a pastel pink color and turned to see the portal mere inches away from him. Time was up, and he had to go.

Realization hit Raphael; this monster would not leave without a fight.

"Oh, no you don't!" Raph yelled, realizing what Shredder was doing as he entered the portal halfway before being shoved in with Raphael.

"Raph!" Leo yelled before he can follow them, the portal closed, leaving specks of pink dust.
