The Rainbooms, Turtles, and the Dazzlings tell their friends from CHS a story of how they were transported a million years into the past to the age of the Dinosaurs
After saving Camp Everfree from being taken by Filthy Rich, the Rainbooms, the Turtles, and the Dazzlings tell the campers a story of when they time traveled back to the Dinosaurs time where they had to tame Dinosaurs, fight Triceratons, and rescue Bebop and Rocksteady.
This story was written in a collaboration by my artist friends from deviantart jebens1 and TMNTony
And was published here by me to take its place among the rest of the Equestria Ninja Girls series here.
One night at camp Everfree, the Turtles and their allies sat with the friends the Rainbooms and everyone from CHS around the bonfire. Mikey was currently telling a story to everyone, "And then, I burst out of his stomach and ate up his whole body! Till all that was left of him, was one measly slice," Mikey told the campers, "Then I picked him up and said 'Alright Pizza Face, let all the mind-controlled humans go' so he did. And that's how I saved everyone in New York from being eaten by the evil Pizza Face."
Snips & Snails, Bulk Beiseps, and Derpy cheered, "That was the best story we ever heard!" said Snips.
"Yeah!" agreed Snails.
"I liked the part when you pretended to be a zombie to slip past the zombie drones." Derpy said.
"I liked the part when Pizza Face sung," said Bulk, and everyone stared at him oddly, "What? I like music."
"And the best part of all is that it's a true story," Mikey said.
"No it's not!" his brothers and April answered simultaneously.
Mikey frowned, and spoke to the campers, "Don't listen to them. They don't remember cause they were to busy being all mind-controlled." Mikey said while acting like a zombie, making some campers laugh.
After stopping Gloriosa Daisy and saving the camp from Filthy Rich, the Turtles and their allies and mutant friends decided to spend the rest of the weekend with their new Canterlot High friends at Camp Everfree. And right now, they were in the middle of campfire stories.
"That was, uh, very interesting story, Michealanglo," Principal Celestia said before whispering to Splinter, "Did all that really happen?"
"My son has a very large imagination," Master Splinter explained, "However, he has been very right about many things. Despite his brother's speculations."
"What a thrilling tale," said Gloriosa, "Now, does anyone else have a story?" Leo raised his hand "Ah, Leonardo. Do you have a story?"
"Actually, Gloriosa, me, my brothers, and my friends all have a story." Leo answered.
"Including us." Adagio said on behalf of her and her sisters, Aria Blaze and Sonata Dusk.
Leo stood before the campers "This is a story of how we, and two mutant enemies of ours, traveled back in time."
"Traveled back in time?!" Micro Chips asked in shock, "But that's pure science fiction."
"Not when your other girlfriend's a time traveling sorceress from the future," Mikey said remembering Renet, "But that's another story." Shini did a double take wondering what Mikey meant by 'other girlfriend'.
"It all happened long before we came to camp," Twilight explained "When I was training to be a kunouci."
"Yep, it was quite the adventure." said Sunset.
"It was totally awesome!" Rainbow put in.
"Not to mention, stylish!" Rarity added.
"And a little scary." Fluttershy clung to Slash's arm.
"But nothin' we couldn't handle." Applejack stated.
"Yeah, especially since we got to hang out with dinosaurs!" Pinkie threw her hands in the air excitedly.
"Dinosaurs?!" all the campers exclaimed.
"Let's start from beginning," Donnie said.
"One night, while we were on patrol, we spotted Bebop, Rocksteady, and Tigerclaw," Raph began "So we followed them to find out what they were up to."
"It turned out that Shredder had sent them on some kind of mission," Leo continued "And we wanted to find out what that mission was..."
That night, in the city, the Turtles and Rainbooms were following after Bebop and Rocksteady's van in the Party Wagon with Leo at the wheel. Raph, Twilight, and Sunset were sitting up front while the rest were in the back.
"Party Wagon in full effect, yo!" Mikey exclaimed.
"Yeah!" Pinkie popped up next to him.
"In full effect? We're losing Tigerclaw," Raph said "Move it, Leo!"
"Calm down, Raph," Twilight eased, "Donnie and I put a tracker on their van."
"Speaking of which," Sunset looked back, "Where are they heading, Donnie?"
Donnie checked the GPS, "According to the GPS, it looks like they're heading to the Natural History Museum."
"Says so on the map too." Twilight held up the map she was reading.
"Why would they go there?" Applejack wondered.
"Museums are sooo boring!" Rainbow groaned.
"Oh, come now, daring," Rarity said, "Museums house beautiful art, tapestries, and my personal favorite, gemstones!" she smiled in excitement.
"They also have bones of animals that lived a long time ago, and were probably oh so cute!" Fluttershy added.
"Dudes, I hear they have awesome laser show at midnight!" Mikey said.
"Laser show?!" now Rainbow was interested.
"I love laser shows!" Pinkie said in excitement.
"Doubt their going to a laser show," Leo said "Ten bucks and fifteen peanut butter-pepperoni pizzas, says their out to steal something."
"Duh!" Raph said, as if it were obvious.
"What do you think it could be?" Fluttershy asked.
"No idea?" replied Twilight.
"I'll bet it's a new helmet for Shredder," Raph guessed "Like red, with spikes all over it, maybe even a tassel!"
Everyone just stared at him oddly, "Tassel?" Sunset raised a brow.
"What? Tassels are cool." Raph said crossing his arms.
"Uh, no they aren't." Rainbow retorted making Raph frown.
"Stay focused, ninjas," Leo ordered "We're getting close."
In the villain's van, Bebop was driving, with Tigerclaw in the passenger seat, while Rocksteady had to sit in the back. And he wasn't enjoying it.
"Aww! I no like this van," Rocksteady complained, "Is too small! My knees is cramped! I getting Charlie the Horse!"
"Stop complaining, Rocksteady," Bebop said, "I'm the one who has to drive you guys around."
"Will you two imbeciles, be quite for ten seconds!" Tiger Claw yelled, "I'm creating a plan to steal the Croanite."
After a moment of silence, Rocksteady spoke up "Okies-dokies! I says nothing, comrade."
"You're talking right now!"
"He gotcha there, Rocksteady," Bebop chuckled.
"Now your both talking! I can't take it!"
Soon they pulled up to the museum and headed inside. While up on roof, the ninjas were already lowering themselves in, on some ropes. On their way down, Mikey and Pinkie stopped in front of the jaws of a Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton. One look and they screamed, letting go of their ropes and crash landing near the others, startling them.
"And that goes for you too, Pinkie." Twilight added.
The Turtles and Rainbooms quietly made their way through the room, while Mikey and Pinkie gawked at all the dinosaur skeletons.
"Are those real dinosaur bones, D?" Mikey asked Donnie.
"Their fossils," Donnie corrected, "You see, when the bones are buried insi-"
Raph and Applejack dropped to the ground, "Uh, can you wake us up after all the sciency exposition?" Raph joked "Awesome, thanks."
"Get up." Donnie said, annoyed.
"Can't hear ya, we're asleep." Applejack pretended to snore.
Just then they heard the museum doors open "Shhh! Here they come." Leo hissed, and they all hid out of sight as the mutant trio came in.
"Hmm, I kinda spaced out when Shredder told us what the mission was." Bebop said.
"We is looking for the meteorite, Bebop. Is big rock from space, da?" Rocksteady explained, "Has some kind of special prooperties?"
"Prooperties? You said prooperties!" Bebop laughed.
Tiger Claw sighed, "The meteorite is an energy source. Extremely powerful and incredibly rare. It fell to earth over 100 million years ago."
"Yes, back when primitive cave-persons walk earth." Rocksteady flexed his mussels.
Tiger Claw face palmed, "Humans didn't exist back then, Rock head!"
"How many times I tell you is Rocksteady!"
From their hiding place Pinkie giggled "He-he! Rock Head."
"Those two were never the sharpest crayons in the box." Donnie stated.
"That's for sure." Rainbow agreed.
"What's the deal, Fearless Leader?" Raph asked Leo.
"You, Rainbow, Donnie, Applejack, and Rarity take Rocksteady," Leo ordered "Mikey, Pinkie, and Fluttershy you've got Bebop. Twilight, Sunset, and I'll take Tiger Claw."
The Turtles and Rainbooms split up to get in position. But Mikey and Pinkie got distracted by the T Rex skeleton, "Huh? Oh..." they marveled. And ignoring Leo and Twilight's warning not to touch, they reached out their hands toward the skeleton.
Soon the henchmutants found what they were looking for. Inside a glass case was a cyan crystal like meteor.
"The Croanite!" Tigerclaw said.
"Is pretty." said Rocksteady.
"You could make a killer disco ball out of that. It'd be tight!" Bebop said.
Mikey and Pinkie were struggling not to touch the skeleton, but urge was too strong, "Not... suppose to... touch!" Pinkie strained "But... can't... resist!"
Finally, after a strenuous moment, they both touched the T-Rex's foot and nothing happened, "Whoo!" Mikey sighed in relief.
"Well that was fun." Pinkie smiled. Just then, there came a rumble and the whole skeleton came crashing down!
"Mikey/Pinkie!"
"Turtles and Rainbooms?!" Tiger Claw turned around. "Here?"
Mikey's leg was caught in T-Rex skull and Pinkie was helping him pull it out. They both waved nervously at the henchmutants, "Surprise!" Pinkie said sheepishly.
"So much for the element of surprise." Sunset whipped out her kunai.
Tiger Claw drew his sword, "Oh, snap! It's on, like Diddy Kong!" Bebop said, and fired an energy mohawk. The ninjas dodged and fought the mutants.
Sunset threw her kunai at Tiger Claw but he deflected them and kicked her aside before clashing swords with Leo, "Haven't you learned by now, caow!" Tigerclaw said as he kicked Leo back, "I am a sensei, and you are barely a student!" and he knocked one of the katanas out of Leo's hand, that landed near Twilight, but Leo wasn't giving up yet.
Donnie, Applejack, Rarity were dodging Bebop's laser blasts, "Hold still, turtle and girlies! You got nothin' on Bebop, baby! Woo-whoo!" Bebop hooded and activated his invisibility field.
"Oh, no you don't!" Donnie threw down a smoke bomb and the three vanished, just as Bebop reappeared.
"Huh?"
Donnie and the girls took him by surprise and nailed him. But then he pressed a button on his belt and finally blasted them, only to be kicked aside by Raph and Rainbow.
"Donnie!"
"Girls!"
They ran to their friends just as Rocksteady showed up, "Over here, Rocksteady!" Mikey threw more smoke bombs at them distorting them. Then he and Fluttershy tackled Bebop while Pinkie slapped Rocksteady in the nose with the weight of her weapon.
Rocksteady growled "I squishes you, like the blueberry!"
"Gotta catch me first!" Pinkie ran with Rocksteady charging right behind her. She ran toward a stegosaurus skeleton and flipped over Rocksteady at the last minute. Rocksteady ran into the skeleton and got his head stuck in the ribs.
"Uh, Rocksteady. Uh, hate when this happen," Rocksteady grunted, as he tried to pull himself out. Then he felt a pain in his backside. Mikey and Pinkie were hitting him in the butt with their weapons, while the others chased after Bebop. Rocksteady finally got free and Mikey and Pinkie barely dodged his fist.
As Leo was still clashing with Tiger Claw, Sunset tried to jump him but he elbowed her in the gut and threw her into Leo.
Just as he was about to finish them, Twilight jumped in and blocked his sword with Leo's other katana.
"You dare challenge me, girl," Tiger Claw swung his sword as Twilight deflected each strike "You're not even a kunouci!"
"At least I don't look like a cross between a cowboy and a pirate!" Twilight mocked.
Tiger Claw growled and struck harder, but Twilight was still holding in, although she knew she couldn't keep it up for long. She looked back a spotted a Spinosaurus skeleton, 'That'll work' she thought.
After deflected another sword strike, Twilight flipped up onto the skeleton, but Tiger Claw swiped at one of the leg bones and the skeleton shook. Twilight lost her balance and fell. Tiger Claw lunged at her with his sword, but she dove out of the way just in time, and Tiger Claw ended up chopping down the supports, "What's this?!"
The entire skeleton collapsed on him in a cloud of dust. When the dust settled, Tiger Claw was trapped under spinosaurs' ribs.
"Out smarted you!" Twilight Sparkle sing songed.
As the others were deflecting Bebop's lasers, Raph grabbed the Croanite, "I got the space rock. Let's haul shell!"
"I second that!" Donnie agreed.
Mikey and Pinkie drove Rocksteady into Bebop, "Booyakasha!" They flipped off him and joined the others, but not before Pinkie Pie blew a raspberry at him. Rocksteady snorted and charged at them, but Mikey threw down another smoke bomb and Rocksteady crashed into a wall.
The Turtles and Rainbooms escaped through the skylight and leaped down into an alleyway and were about to bolt when Tiger Claw burst through the exit door in front of them, quickly followed by Bebop and Rocksteady.
"Gotcha now," Bebop smirked. "Now, fork over that rock!"
"No way!" Rainbow raised her nagitana.
"Then we do this the hard way." Rocksteady cracked his knuckles.
"Wait," Tiger Claw blocked him with his hand, "There is one missing."
"Oh, you mean Twilight? She's right over there." Pinkie pointed behind the three mutants.
Right after she said that, two headlights beamed on and an engine sound roared, "What the?" Bebop said as they whipped around.
Behind them was the Party Wagon. And Twilight was at the wheel. She smirked "Out smarted you, again!"
Twilight stomped on the gas and the tires squeezed as the Party Wagon rammed into the three surprised mutants. Everyone ducked as they sailed over them and crashed into a wall. First Tigerclaw, then Bebop, and finally Rocksteady flattening them both.
The Turtles and Rainbooms quickly piled into the Party Wagon and Raph made a mock salute as Twilight drove out of the alley.
After they had gone, Tiger Claw shoved Bebop and Rocksteady off him and growled. He was furious at being out smarted twice in one night.
In the Lair, Spike and Ice Cream Kitty were playing one of the Turtles video games. When the Turtles and Rainbooms got back, Mikey laid down beside them.
"What up, Ice Cream Kitty," Mikey said "Playing some Marien Cart, little friend?" Ice Cream Kitty meowed in response.
"Having fun, Spike?" Twilight asked her dog.
"If by fun you mean, losing every game to Ice Cream Kitty? Then yeah, I'm having a blast," Spike grumbled, and the girls giggled. "Anyway I'm done." Spike tossed his controller aside.
"I'm going to examine the meteorite in my lab," Donnie said excitedly, "So, cool..."
"Ah'boring!" Rainbow coughed.
"Great," said Raph, "Get back to us on that, while we play some video games."
"I call next game!" Leo announced.
"I call second!" said Rainbow.
But as Leo reached for the controller, Ice Cream Kitty yanked it away, "That's messed up, Ice Cream Kitty!" Leo said.
"Now, Leo. Don't be too hard on the little thing," Fluttershy pat the mutant cat, "She's still learning to share. Isn't that right, Ice Cream Kitty?"
"Meow."
Later the others were checking in on Donnie, who was still studding the Croanite, "Hows it going, D?" Mikey asked.
"Find anything interestin'?" Applejack wondered.
"The energy per-square inch this thing emanates is off the chizzarts!" Donnie explained "It's even more powerful then the Kraang energy crystals."
"Not to mention, it's ever so glamorous!" Rarity marveled at it's crystal-like appearance.
"And shiny!" Pinkie added.
"So. can you use it to power up your super secret project, that I'm not supposed to know about?" Mikey pointed to a huge thing hidden underneath a tarp.
"How did we not notice that?" Sunset wondered.
"What is it?" Raph asked "A Turtle Tank or something?"
"Oh-ho-ho! It is much more than that!" Donnie pulled off the tarp to reveal a large turtle shaped vehicle "Ta-dah! It's my new Shellformer! A triple changing vehicle that can fly, roll on treads, and even transform into a Turtle-Bot!"
"A turtle robot that transforms?!" Mikey said, with stars in his eyes, "Dude! Dude!! Dude!!!
"That is the coolest thing I've ever seen!" Rainbow exclaimed.
Donnie chucked, "I know. I'll just add the crystals as a power source."
"Forget it, Donnie," Sunset waved him off, "It doesn't belong to us."
"Sunset's right, Donnie," agreed Leo, "We're taking that meteor back to the museum, first thing tomorrow night."
"Bad call," Raph said, "Shredder's gang will just steal it again."
"Technically, we stole it," Applejack corrected, "But ah see your point."
"Yeah, in the wrong hands, it's beyond dangerous." Donnie stated.
"And us keeping it is any better?" Twilight asked dryly.
"I wanna see it transform!" Mikey shouted.
"Me too!" Pinkie chimed in. And they both started acting like transforming robots.
Donnie thought about it, "Hmm? Test out a huge, over sized, transforming, robo mech, in the middle of New York?! I'm down."
"I've got a bad feeling about this." Sunset murmured to Leo and Twilight.
"That makes three of us." Twilight agreed for her and Leo.
Soon Shellformer was rumbling through the streets. Lucky there where no one was out to see them. However, watching them from a roof top, was Bebop and Rocksteady.
"I told yah I smelled turtle, Rocksteady," Bebop said, "My piggy nose is never wrong."
"We is going to bring Turtles, Rainboom Girls, and meteorite to Shredder," said Rocksteady, "Heh-heh, maybe he even let us keep cool looking tank?"
"And maybe he'll let us kick both your butts!" call a tough girl voice.
Bebop and Rocksteady whirled around and standing behind them were their former allies, the Dazzlings, "Didn't anyone teach you it's not nice to spy?" Adagio asked rhetorically.
"It is Siren girls!" Rocksteady said.
"Yo, what you traders doing here?" Bebop demanded.
"We came here to visit the Turtles." Sonata answered.
"But it looks like we're going to stop whatever plan you two dimwits have." said Aria.
"You want rumble, we can bring it!" Rocksteady pounded his fists.
"You're going down, girlies!" Bebop said.
"We'll see about that," Adagio retorted, as the Dazzlings drew their weapons, "Let's get 'em, girls!" And the two sides charged at each other.
Meanwhile in the Shellformer, everyone was in a seat while some were marveling at the view,"Not to sound like a bummer." Leo began
"Uh, you'll sound like one, anyway." Raph interrupted.
"This is a super crazy bad idea! Like excise on the 'super crazy bad' part. Have I mentioned it's also a really terrible idea?" the leader voiced his disapproval.
"I'm with Leo," Sunset said, "We really shouldn't be messing with that meteor."
"Like you said, Donnie, it's very powerful," Twilight put in, "So who's knows what it might do?"
But Donnie ignored them, "Let's test this puppy out! And remember, anyone who bothers me... ejector seat button's right there," he pointed to a big red button. Donnie pressed some buttons and the engines began humming. The Croanite glowed brightly, "Yes! The crystals are working!" Donnie exclaimed, "We're at 100% power."
"Ooh-ooh-ooh Can we test out 'Robot mode' first?" Mikey reached for the button, but Donnie pushed him back.
"Mikey! Ejector seat!"
"Hmm!" Mikey huffed.
"Let's test out 'Rocket Jet mode'!" Rainbow suggested.
"'Rocket Jet mode' it is," Donnie pulled some levers. The treads disappeared and wings popped out, as the Shellformer rose off the ground.
Bebop and Rocksteady were still fighting the Dazzling, when they saw the Shellformer rising up and knew it was now or never, "Forget these girls, and come on, Rock! Hee-hee!" Bebop and Rocksteady jumped down from the roof and on to the left wing.
"Get back here!" Aria called, as the Dazzlings jumped down after them.
Once the Shellformer was high enough, Donnie pushed back the levers and Shellformer shot off at super speed. While Bebop, Rocksteady, and the Dazzlings all clung to the wing.
"Maybe not so good idea." Rocksteady said.
"For once, I agree with the rhino!" Sonata shouted.
The fun didn't last long for the others either. They all screamed when they saw that they were heading for the TCRI building. Then something strange happened. Just before the Shellformer hit the building, it vanished!
Soon it was rocketing through a wormhole and the mutant duo and Siren trio were holding on for dear life, "Hold on, comrade!" Rocksteady called to Bebop, while the Dazzlings, and the Turtles and Rainbooms inside, screamed.
The Shellformer then warped above a large jungle, and was now heading for something worse than a building, "Volcanoes! Volcanoes!" Donnie cried.
"Donnie, turn!" Leo ordered.
Donnie steered the Shellformer to the left, just missing the volcanoes. And in the process, Bebop, Rocksteady, and the Dazzlings lost their gripes and flew off the wing, smacking into a cliff and landing on a ledge.
As for the Turtles and Rainbooms, they all screamed as the Shellformer smashed through the tops of the trees before it finally crashed and skidded into the ground. Little did the heroes, their allies, and even their enemies know they had just gotten themselves into a major pickle.
Everyone emerged from the Shellformer, coughing from the crash landing, "Weeee! Let's do that again," Pinkie cheered, before leaping out.
"Please, don't." Twilight put a hand on her shoulder.
"Is everyone okay?" Raph asked.
"I think so." Sunset replied.
"Ah'm okay." Applejack said.
"Me too." Rainbow chimed in.
"As am I." said Rarity.
"I'm good." Spike said.
"That was so scary!" Fluttershy trembled, with her hands on her cheeks.
"Not gonna say 'this was an awful idea'," Leo started. "But, uh... where are we, Donnie?!"
Donnie checked a device. "Somehow, we time warped back, 100 million years into the past..."
The Turtles and Rainbooms looked out. They had crash landed near a lake. And what really surprised them was herds of dinosaurs were everywhere! There were Brachiosaurs, Stegosaurus, Ankylosaurs, and Triceratops. From up above, Pterodons soared over head.
"We're- we're in prehistoric times?!" Sunset asked in shock.
"Specifically, the Cretaceous," Donnie corrected, "You know, give or take twenty or thirty million years?"
"Whoa-ho-ho, look at this place!" Mikey marveled, "It's Amazballs!"
"Giant dinosaurs, everywhere!" Pinkie exclaimed.
"And look at how cute they are!" Fluttershy's eyes sparkled. A Stegosaurus came out of the water and lumbered up to the group, "Aww! Hello." Fluttershy said.
"Wow. Is that like a 'Spikeodon' or something?" Raph asked Donnie. Spike frowned at that.
"It's a Stegosaurus," Donnie corrected, and noticed Fluttershy was petting and nuzzling it, "I-I-I wouldn't get too close."
"Well, I must say, he is rather darling. In a hudge, bulking, prehistoric sort of way." admitted Rarity.
The Stegosaurus rubbed it's head against Mikey, "Aww, it really likes me," Mikey said, petting it, "Can we keep it? Can we, plea-e-e-se?!"
"What'ya you think the answer to that question is, Mikey?" Leo asked rhetorically.
"Absolutely yes!"
"We can't," Fluttershy said, "This place is his home."
"Speakin' of which, Ah think we got the same question on our minds." Applejack stated.
Raph turned to his smart brother, "Donnie, how the heck did we end up in this nightmare?"
"I-I don't know! It must be the Croanite," Donnie theorized, "When over heated, it somehow created a temporal wormhole in the Time-Space Continue-"
"Eh-blegh-blegh-blegh,blegh-blegh!" Raph mockingly interrupted, "Is that supposed to make sense to me, or anyone else listening? Who do you think we are, NASA?!"
"WE WENT BACK IN TIME!" Donnie snapped.
"We... time traveled..." Twilight said, in wide eyed shock.
"You okay, Twi?" Applejack in concern.
Twilight was silent for a moment before... "Oh-my-gosh-oh-my-gosh-oh-my-gosh-oh-my-gosh!" Twilight grabbed Applejack by the cheeks "We actually time traveled! Time traveled! Eeee-he-he-he! It's like the ultimate science!"
"Duh, what kind of time travel is there?" Pinkie asked.
"Goodness!" Rarity exclaimed, "And I didn't even pack for the trip!"
"Yeah, cause none of us knew we would be time travelin'." Applejack snarked, and Rarity scowled.
"Well, either way," Mikey started, "This. Is. Awesome!"
"Totally!" Rainbow agreed, and they high-fived.
"So, how do we get back?" Leo asked.
"Shouldn't be a problem. We have enough time crystals to get home," Donnie assured, "Let's just take a look around before we leave and hang out for ten minutes."
"Bad idea," Leo retorted, "We gotta get back."
"And I need to find a fire hydrant." Spike put in.
"As exciting as I am that we time traveled, I have to side with Leo on this," Twilight agreed, "Messing around in the past is never a good thing. There's no telling what it could do to the future."
"Whoa, look at that." Mikey said, and wandered off. Leo put a hand to his forehead. This was gonna be a long day.
Meanwhile, on the ledge, Bebop, Rocksteady, and the Dazzlings were waking up, after falling off the Shellformer, "Uh, my head is killing me!" Bebop moaned as he got up.
"Let's agree never to do that again." Aria stated.
"What a ride." Sonata said, feeling dizzy
"Rocksteady, where the heck are we?" asked Bebop.
"I think we are in the Jersey?" Rocksteady guessed.
"No, you idiot!" Adagio grumbled.
"Uh, guys..." Sonata pointed toward a cave.
A big red pteranodon came out and shrieked. The mutants and sirens screamed and ran, jumping from tall rocks with the pteranodon flying after them.
Back at the lake, the Turtles and Rainbooms were looking at all the dinosaurs. Applejack and Rainbow were looking at ankylosaurs with Raph. Donnie and Pinkie were gazing up at a brachiosaur. Pinkie leaned back so much, she fell on her back. Even Twilight and Sunset started looking around, enjoying themselves.
"Okay, cool. We saw most of it," Leo said impatiently, "Now let's go." But everyone ignored him.
"No offence, but now you're really sounding like a bummer, Leo." Spike said.
Mikey and Fluttershy were watching a flock of Compsognathus sprint by. One stoped and looked at them.
"Aww, cute," Mikey said, "Their like chickens crossed with iguanas."
"Hello, sweet little dinosaur," Fluttershy tickled it's chin, "You remind me of my bunny Angel," Just then the stegosaurus nudged Mikey from behind, "Hello again," Fluttershy said.
"What a sweet, friendly, spikey guy," Mikey petted the dino, "You need a name."
"How about Maurice?" Fluttershy suggested.
"Yeah! What do you think, Maurice?" Mikey asked.
Maurice responded by scooping up Mikey with his head, tossing him down his back, and launching him with his tail. Mikey collided with Raph and the two crashed into something.
"Mikey, Raph!" Futtershy ran over to them, " Are you oka-Oh!" She covered her mouth with her hands.
"Whatever is matter, darling?" Rarity walked up, then she looked and gasped, "Oh, no!
"What is it?" Pinkie popped in, and she looked, "Ewww! Raph and Mikey had landed in dinosaur poop!
"Dino doo doo?!" Raph exclaimed, in disgust.
Mikey head popped out of the dung, "I'll take that as a yes."
"Mikey!" Raph swung his fist at Mikey, but he ducked and ran with Raph chasing after him. They stopped by the girls and Raph threw a ball of dung at Mikey, but he ducked. Unfortunately, Rarity was right behind him and the dung landed in her hair!
"My hair!" Rarity shrieked, "Raphael!"
Mikey laughed, as Raph rubbed the back of his head, "Uh, sorry, Rarity. That was for Mikey."
The girl sighed, "I suppose my hair can wait. Right now, you two are in more desperate need of a wash than me," Rarity pushed them toward the lake, "And if you're wondering what we'll do for soap, never fear, darlings. A lady always comes prepared." Rarity held up a bottle of shampoo and body wash, as Raph and Mikey reluctantly waded into the water.
A Triceratops had walked up to Leo, "Uh..." Leo reached down and pulled up prehistoric turnip and offered it to the triceratops, "That's a good little, giant Triceratops. Take the nice weird plant thing, go on," The triceratops ate the turnip, getting spit all over Leo's hand. Just as Leo wiped off the spit, the triceratops nipped at him for more, "Uh, that's all I got, little big friend. Uh easy, easy now- whoa!" The triceratops tossed Leo onto his back and took off running!
"Whoa, stop it, stop it!" Leo called, as he was bounced up and down, "Stop, little big friend!"
After lathering up Mikey and Raph with her shampoo, Rarity then used it to wash the dung out of her hair. While Raph and Mikey were rinsing off, the triceratops ran past with Leo clinging onto his back, screaming. They all couldn't help but laugh.
"That looks like fun," Pinkie said.
As the triceratops pasted under a tree branch, Leo caught on to it and spun around before dropping back onto the triceratops.
"Stop!" Leo shouted, and triceratops finally got the message and stopped. Leo flew off his back, and landed with a splash into the lake. Shortly afterwards, Leo resurfaced with a lily pad on his head. Everyone laughed at him.
"I'm gonna name that triceratops Zog," Pinkie said "You know, after the first triceraton you guys met."
"Zog was an alien, Pinkie," Donnie said, "Not the same thing."
Pinkie shrugged and went back to laughing at Leo. But while they were all laughing, a dinosaur was watching them in the shadows of a bush and growled, while narrowing it's green eyes.
"You okay, Leo?" Twilight asked, through laughs.
"Yeah, just fine." Leo said, dryly.
"Not bad for your first dino rodeo." Applejack joked.
"You were right about this place being dangerous, Leo." Raph smirked
"It is for my complexion." Rarity said, while washing the dino dung out of her hair.
"Am I the only one who's worried about getting home?" Leo stuck his arms out in exasperation, as he got out of the water.
Twilight took Leo's hand, "We all are, Leo. But you got admit, though, this is pretty exciting!"
"Yeah, no need to be a buzzkill, Leo." Rainbow said.
"But he has a point," Sunset agreed, "I'd really be more comfortable knowing where the portal to Equestria is."
"And I would like to get back to my family as well." Applejack said.
"And I haven't found a fire hydrant," said Spike.
"We'll make it back," Pinkie assured, while swinging on a branch, "Besides, Fluttershy's making a lot of new friends over there." She pointed to Fluttershy, who was spending time with the flock of compsognathus.
"You're all so cute," Fluttershy giggled, then she saw the one, she named Angel scamper toward Raph, "Oh, You want to see Raph?" Angel ran up to him, shrieked, then grabbed one of Raph's sais in his mouth and ran off.
"Hey! You little," Raph got up, grabbed his other sai, ran after him. "Stop, theif!" Raph chased the little dino over a rock, under a tree root, then he grabbed a branch and swung over Angel, blocking him off. But Angel ducked under his legs and ran into a log. Raph jumped on the log and tried to grab Angel from each end, but Angel was too quick. "Get out'ah there!" Raph picked up the log and tried to shake him out, but then he looked inside and saw Angel wasn't there. Just as Raph was wondering where he could've gone... "Aaahhh!"
His sai suddenly dropped down, barely missing his foot. Raph looked up and saw Angel was in a tree above him. The dino shrieked at him and scurried further up the the tree, "You evil little iguana!"
"Now, Raph," Fluttershy walked up to him, "Sure, he was a naughty dinosaur. But the little thing was just trying play."
"Well, he can play without making me look like a fool!"
"To late for that." Rainbow said as the others approached, now laughing at him.
"Nice one, Raph." Sunset chuckled
"Out smarted by a 'Chickenosaur'!" Leo remarked, and Mikey and Pinkie held on to each other laughing hysterically.
"DON'T MAKE ME HURT YOUR FACES!" Raph shouted in rage, and held up his fists.
Everyone immediately stopped laughing and Mikey, Pinkie, and Fluttershy cowered behind Donnie. As Leo and Sunset motioned for Raph to calm down, Mikey heard a rustling in the bushes and saw the dinosaur that had been watching them.
"Aww, look at this one," Mikey cooed, and walked right up to it, "Its kind of cute," Mikey reached out to pet it, but the dino snapped it's sharp teeth at him "Whoa! And kinda bittey. Easy, fella," The dino stuck out it's foot. It had big sharp curved toenail, "Whoa, he's got some sharp toenails," Mikey pointed both fingers "Look at those things! You need some toenail clippers don't yah, buddy?" The dino finally came out of the bush and growled. It was a Velociraptor. And it looked hungry.
"Uh, Mikey," Twilight raised a trembling finger, "That dinosaur is not a nice one!"
"And neither are those!" Spike pointed.
Everyone looked to see an entire pack of velociraptors was surrounding them!
The Turtles and Rainbooms screamed and scrambled up a tree and onto a branch. Mikey fell off, but just saved himself with the raptors snapping at his feet, "Back off of me, man!" One raptor leaped at him, but Mikey kicked him back. He lost his grip and fell, but Fluttershy grabbed his hand and pulled him back up.
"Well, this prehistoric adventure went downhill fast." Spike said.
"We're gonna get eaten!" Donnie cried, "Raptors are among the smartest, most adaptive-"
Raph got into his face "Not now, Donnie! We need a plan!"
Suddenly Angel landed on Raph's head. And just like that, the branch snapped and the gang fell to the ground, except Angel, who hopped onto to the remainder of the branch. The others got up and drew their weapons and Twilight broke a stick off the branch, using it as a weapon. Mikey swung one of his nunchucks at a raptor but it caught it in it's mouth and started gnawing on it, "Aww! Not the chucks, raptor!" Mikey bonked it with his other chuck, making it let got.
The same thing happened to Rainbow. Another raptor bit down on her nagatana, "Hey!" she said, trying to wrestle it away, "This. Is. Not. A. Chew toy!" And she kicked raptor off.
Applejack jumped on another Raptor, "Yee-haw!" she hooted, only for the raptor to knock her off and onto the ground, face first, " Okay. Not a good idea," Then she noticed that Rarity was doing more dodging of the raptors rather than fighting them, "Y'know Rarity we’re fighting for our lives, not playing tag!"
"I just fixed my hair after washing off that Dino dung!" Rarity protested, "The last thing I need is Dino slobber on it!"
"Why? To look good for when they eat you?" Rainbow asked rhetorically.
Twilight was swinging her stick at some of the raptors when... " Uh, Twilight," Twilight saw that Spike was surrounded by three of them "Help!"
Twilight jumped in and whacked the raptors away with her stick, "Back off!" Until one raptor bit down on her stick and snapped it in two. Twilight grabbed Spike and ran toward the others.
Sunset was using kunai to repel some raptors, but the raptors weren't backing off, "We’re not doing much damage to these guys!"
"Tell me about it!" Pinkie threw a cupcake at raptors and it spat it out, "Even cupcakes have no effect!"
One raptor tried to bite off Leo's arm, but he quickly pulled it into his shell and kicked the raptor aside. Then he saw that more kept coming no matter what they did, "Ah, man! There's too many of them!"
"Fluttershy! Think your stare can scare them off?" Raph asked.
"I don’t know," Fluttershy said, frightfully, "I don’t think I wanna try without being eaten!" They all huddled together as the raptors closed in.
"Whatever will we do?!" Rarity cried.
Then Mikey had an idea. He picked up two tree roots that were shaped like claws and waved them at the raptors, hooting and cawing in gibberish. The raptors took one then turned tail and ran way, yelping in fright.
"Yay Mikey!" Pinkie cheered.
"Mikey... your a... genius?!" Leo said, in surprise.
"Um... I don't think Mikey scared them off." Donnie said, nervously.
Everyone looked behind them and saw the figure of a big dinosaur. The dinosaur knocked down two trees and gave a loud roar.
"Tyrannosaurus Rex!" Twilight squeaked.
Everyone stood still, frozen. No one dared to move a muscle, "Now, everyone take it easy..." Leo said calmly "No sudden movements... T-Rex has terrible eye sight."
"A-Actually, that would be a myth," Donnie pointed out, "They have better visually acute than eagles and-and hawks."
"He's right," Twilight confirmed, "That T-Rex can totally see us!"
"Okay, run!" Leo called.
They all screamed and ran between the T-Rex's legs as it chased them back and forth all over the place. The Rainbooms tried attacking the T-Rex's foot with their weapons, but to no avail. The T-Rex just kicked them away, except for Pinkie, who ducked. The Turtles had no luck either. They tried hitting the T-Rex's back, but the T-Rex simply threw them off. Mikey landed on Pinkie and the two looked up at the glaring dinosaur and grinned sheepishly.
While T-Rex chased the screaming friends in circles, Raph turned to Leo, "You have a plan B? Or C? Or D? Or Any plan with a letter?!"
"We can't stop a T-Rex with sticks and blades!" Donnie stated.
"Well, we can run!" Rainbow said.
"I just said that!" Leo pounded his fist on the ground, then he saw the T-Rex chasing Mikey and Pinkie straight towards them, "Run!"
As everyone ran, Donnie began running zigzags, "Keep turning, you guys! T-Rex's are bad at turning!" But the T-Rex grabbed Donnie and flung him into the air. Donnie screamed as he came back down, and headed straight for the T-Rex's open mouth!
"Donnie, no!" the girls cried.
Suddenly, yelling like Tarzan, Pinkie Pie came swinging in on a vine and caught Donnie just in time! "Thanks, Pinkie," Donnie said.
"Any time," Pinkie replied.
They landed and everyone ran through some bushes, into a clearing, with the T-Rex right behind them. The dino burst out of the bushes, roaring, but saw that the others had disappeared. It began searching for them, unaware that they were all hiding inside a log.
"Shh!" Raph hushed everyone, "It'll never know we're in here."
The Turtles and Rainbooms stayed as quiet as they could, when Angel wriggled his out from under them, "Hello again, Angel," Fluttershy whispered, but then Angel shrieked, "Oh no!"
Angel hopped out of the log, just as the T-Rex bit down on it. The T Rex shook the log back and forth trying to shake the ninjas and girls out, but they were holding on tight.
"You were right, Raph," Spike hollered, "That little dino is evil!"
The T Rex started gnawing on the log while the others all screamed. When that didn't work, the T-Rex threw the log and slapped it with it's tail. The log flew over a cliff and finally broke into splinters, sending the group plummeting. As they fell, Pinkie whipped out the sickle of her weapon and snagged it on a rock. Then everyone started linking arms and legs with each other, forming a human and mutant chain.
Raph and Rainbow Dash were the last one's to go, but just as they were reaching out, they were suddenly snatched up by a pteranodon!
"Raph!" cried Leo.
"Rainbow Dash!" called the girls.
Raph and Rainbow screamed as they were carried away by the pterosaur. The pteranodon swooped over a tree and Raph and Rainbow ended up smashing through it's leaves, much to their annoyance.
"Put us down, you ugly chicken!" Raph demanded.
"Yeah, Or you'll be sorry!" put in Rainbow. But they quickly changed their tune when the pteranodon frowned then flew them straight toward a tall rock, "Wait! I take it back!"
"Whoa! Sorry about the chicken comment-" Raph tried before the pteranodon smacked them into the rock, "No I'm not!" The pteranodon smacked them into another, "Yes I am! You know what? I don't- Aahhh!"
The pteranodon wasn't done yet. It did a barrel roll through some more trees and flew down over the lake, dragging the pair under the water. Then it flew back up, while Raph and Rainbow coughed out the water.
"I hate prehistory!" Raph shouted.
"What else is new! Whoa!" Rainbow said, as they were dragged through more tree branches.
Back on the ground, after climbing back up the cliff, the others were hiding in some bushes. They could see the Shellformer was on the other side. But so was the T-Rex.
"Get to the ship," Leo ordered, "We gotta save Raph and Rainbow Dash."
Once the T-Rex wondered away from their hiding spot, they rushed out and made a mad dash for the Shellformer. But the T-Rex saw them and went after them.
"Everyone, inside!" Donnie ushered them in, "Pronto, step to it!" once they were all in, Donnie activated the wings and flew the Shellformer away from the roaring T-Rex.
"We made it!" Mikey cheered, "Hooo! Later, Rex!"
"Guess that's his name now." stated Pinkie.
"Oh, that was too close." Rarity said.
"Yeah, we barely got out of there in one piece." agreed Sunset.
"Alright, let's save Raph and Rainbow," Leo said, before realizing they had no idea where the pteranodon went, "Uh, any idea where they could be?" Everyone shook their heads.
"Probably inside of that lizard bird's stomach, by now," Mikey guessed, "Slowly, being digested into dino poop!"
The girls cringed at the thought.
"Can you be any more disgusting?" Donnie asked rhetorically.
"Absolutely."
"Please, just stop talking, Michelangelo." Rarity begged, not wanting to hear any more.
Thankfully, the pteranodon was still carrying the two. They hung upside down with their arms crossed, looking more annoyed than ever. Especially since they kept hitting over tall rocks. First a small one, then medium, and finally a big one.
"That's it!" Rainbow snapped.
"Enough already!" growled Raph.
They leaned up and bit into the pterosaur's legs. She squawked in pain and released her grip on them. Then they both flipped onto her back and grabbed on.
"Hah! Gotcha, now!" Raph said.
"There's no way- Whoa!" Rainbow started, but the pteranodon was flying wildly, diving and swooping, trying to shake them off. Then it lost control and was flying straight for a tree! Raph and Rainbow screamed as they all smacked into the trunk.
"Ow!" Rainbow groaned, as they slid off the tree and fell to the ground.
The two panted, before remembering the pteranodon and quickly got up, ran, then turned to face it with their weapons ready. But instead of attacking them, the pteranodon was flopping around. She was trying fly away but she couldn't, her wing was hurt.
"Oh, no!" Rainbow exclaimed. She and Raph put their weapons away and slowly approached the pterosaur. She squawked furiously at them, telling them to stay back.
"Whoa, whoa, easy girl, easy," Raph said calmly, "Can't stand to see you suffer."
"Yeah," agreed Rainbow, "Even if you were gonna eat us or feed us to your babies, or whatever." The pteranodon was still squawking at them as they walked up to her.
Raph patted the pteranodon's shoulder "Its ok. here, I'll fix you up with my med kit."
"You know, that was some pretty cool flying you were doing, so you're okay, in my book," Rainbow commented, "How 'bout I give you a name? I'll call you... Terry! You like, girl?" the pteranodon only cawled in response, "I'll take that as a yes."
As Rainbow Dash kept Terry calm, Raph put bandages on her wing, "That's right, there we go. It's cool. There, good as new," Terry looked at her wing then back at Raph and Rainbow, who were smiling with warm friendly eyes, she calwed as if to say 'thank you' then she spread her wings and flew off.
"Bye, Terry," Rainbow muttered, then she turned to Raph, "Let's go find the others, before something else tries to eat us."
Raph nodded and the two ran back in the direction they came. At least they thought it was the direction they came.
Meanwhile, Bebop, Rocksteady, and the Dazzlings were trekking through the forest. After escaping from the pteranodon, they decided to stick together in order to keep from being eaten. And for good measure, Rocksteady and Sonata had fixed all their clothes. Now they were dressed like cave people. Bebop and Rocksteady found some old turtle shells and used them for shoulder pads and a helmet. Bebop combed his mohawk with a fish skeleton and Rocksteady bit into a leg of meat.
"These new costumes are tight, Rocksteady," Bebop commented "I didn't know you were this good at arts & crafts, dawg."
"You be looking totally hip, dude," Rocksteady replied "Hip, waist, stomach, all of it."
"Thank you."
"Do we have to wear these?" Aria complained "I think mine makes my butt look big."
"So we can blend in, Aria," Adagio answered, in annoyance "So will you stop complaining! Plus, your butt looks fine. Mine really matches my color. Excellent choice on these garments, Sonata."
"Glad you like them," Sonata smile,d "I kinda figured we’d blend in. Know what I mean?
"But why are we following these two Mutant morons?" Aria asked.
Bebop frowned, "We’re right here, you know."
"We hears you!" Rocksteady snorted.
Adagio groaned, "Look. We wanna go home. They wanna go home. So we work together and find the turtles and Rainbooms so we can! Capice?"
"Yellow siren girl right!" Rocksteady agreed.
"Yeah, we gotta find those Turtles and Rainbooms. They'll know how to get..." Bebop trailed off, as they heard big footsteps, "Wha, oh." They looked back to see huge hulking figures, aiming blasters at them. Bebop jumped into Rocksteady's arms in fright.
"We surrender!" Sonata threw up her hands, in a panic. Adagio and Aria face palmed.
Soon, the Shellformer landed and Mikey and the girls looked out and spotted Raph and Rainbow.
"Raph!"
"Rainbow Dash!"
Mikey ran up and hugged Raph, while the girls crowded around Rainbow Dash.
"Your okay!" Mikey exclaimed.
"Yeah, I'm okay, little brother." Raph assured.
Pinkie squeezed Rainbow tightly, "We thought you'd had been digested!"
"Pinkie!" Rainbow struggled against the hug, "You’re hugging too tight!"
"No I’m not."
"We’re so glad you’re okay!" Fluttershy said.
"We were really worried about you." Applejack added.
"Thank heavens, that pteranodon didn't eat you." Rarity said, relieved.
"Nah, we're cool with Terry now." Rainbow said, crossing her arms.
"Let's get out of this time zone." Raph said.
"Couldn't have said so better myself." Sunset agreed, dryly.
"See what happens," Leo stated, "We were supposed to be here for ten minutes. Ten minutes!"
"Leo's right," Twilight put in, "If we keep messing around in the past, it could have dire consequences on our present reality! Something you were too much of an airhead to realize, Donnie!" Donnie scowled, from the insult.
"Um, just exactly what might happen?" Fluttershy asked.
"Allow the 'airhead' to explain," Donnie said, giving Twilight an annoyed look, "As Twilight stated, anymore time here could have micro cosmic effects on the future. We step on the wrong lizard and humanity ceases to exist, that kind of thing."
"Wow, that's bad, dude," Mikey said.
"So, let's get out of here!" said Raph, as everyone walked toward the Shellformer.
But they weren't out of the woods, yet. A big white T-Rex emerged out of the forest and growled. It was bigger than the other one.
"WHOAAA!," Raph's eyes went wide.
As everyone backed away in horror, Rex appeared behind them, growling, "Looks like Rex brought a friend," Spike said nervously.
Rex gave a roar. And once again, the Turtles and Rainbooms screamed and made a mad dash for the Shellformer, with Rex right behind the, not caring that Rexy was blocking them.
"Run through its legs!" Leo shouted, and they did, causing the two T-Rex's to bash heads.
They made it inside and Donnie closed the door. But that didn't stop Rex and Rexy from chewing on the ship, trying to rip it open. Lucky, Donnie had plan for that.
"Activate the TurtleBot 5000!"
"Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo! I wanna press the button!" Mikey butted in, and slammed his hand down on it.
Giant legs sprung from the Shellformer, making the two tyrannosaurus' back away in surprise. The Shellformer stood up and two arms popped out on each side. Then finally, the cockpit became the head. The TurtleBot pounded its fist, ready to fight.
"Yes!" Raph cheered, "This is awesome!"
"Super awesome!" agreed Rainbow.
"All systems go!" Twilight noted.
"Ah’d say this is more than meets the eye," Applejack began, "But I think that’s someone else."
Rex and Rexy charged at the TurtleBot and it caught them with both its arms, struggling to hold them back, "Do you have to make things shaky?" Rarity asked Donnie, feeling sickly.
Sunset handed over a bag, "Barf Bag?"
"I think I’m good. Thanks."
"I need it!" Fluttershy said. Sunset handed bag, but instead of blowing chunks she stared hyperventilating in it. They noticed Pinkie humming a tune (Go Go Power Rangers).
"Pinkie, what are you humming?" Sunset asked.
"Just a tune I heard from something similar to this." Pinkie replied.
After the struggle, the TurtleBot threw Rex into Rexy. But the dinos got back up and bit into both of the arms, attempting to pull them apart. Inside, Donnie noticed the Croanite was fading, "We're almost out of power!"
Leo moved some levers and made the TurtleBot stomp on Rexy's tail, making him let go and the TurtleBot pounded his head. Then it jabbed it's fingers in Rex's nose. Rex let go and ran away yelping.
"Sorry!" Fluttershy called. But Rexy wasn't done yet.
"Ok, transform and get us home, Donnie," Raph ordered.
"Um, guys," Mikey said, and pointed out the window. Rexy was running right at them! "T-Rex is about to eat us!"
Everyone screamed as Rexy clamped it's jaws on the TurtleBot's head. No one noticed that the Croanite had faded even more. Donnie pulled a lever and TurtleBot grabbed hold of Rexy and body slammed him off. But he got back up and roared, not backing down.
"Man, that T-Rex just won't quit," Rainbow said.
"This'll change his mind," Donnie pushed a button. The TurtleBot opened it's mouth and fired a laser, blasting a line across some trees. It didn't hit Rexy, but it was enough. Rexy whimpered and ran away in fright.
"Aww, poor guy," Mikey sighed, "He just wanted hugs."
"He just wanted us in his belly!" Raph retorted.
Suddenly, the TurtleBot shook, fell on the ground, and transformed back into the Shellformer, "Uh, what just happened?" Sunset asked, as everyone looked at the Croanite.
"Oh, no!" Leo said, "The fuel is gone!"
It was true. Using the Turtlebot had used up all the meteorite's power. Now it was black and crumbled, completely burned out.
Later, everyone stood outside of the now powerless Shellformer, "This is bad, guys," Donnie said, in worry "Without that meteorite, we're basically stuck here-forever!"
"So that means no tv? No video games? No pizza?!" Mikey wailed.
"It's worse than that, Mikey," Applejack stated "We'll never see our families again! I'll never see Granny, Big Mac, and Apple Bloom again!"
"Or Sweetie Belle!" Rarity cried.
"Or my sweet little animal friends!" Fluttershy was on the verge of tears.
"And no sports or Scootaloo!" Rainbow put in.
"And worst of all, NO PARTIES!" Pinkie exclaimed.
"And I still haven't found a fire hydrant!" Spike brought up.
"I told you, messing with that meteor was a bad idea, Donnie!" Sunset snapped, "But did you listen? No!"
"We had to fight off two T-Rex's!" Donnie reminded, "Who could predict that?"
"We wouldn't have, if you didn't tamper with the Croanite in the first place!" Twilight yelled "And now we've done who knows what kind of damage to the future!"
"And I suppose that's my fault, too?" Donnie asked rhetorically.
"Not that we're playing the blame game, but..."
"YES!!!" both Sunset and Twilight shouted.
"Stop it! All of you!" Fluttershy exclaimed, "This is getting us nowhere! We got into this together, and somehow we'll get out too! But not if we all start fighting!"
Donnie and the girls looked away from each other, sheepishly, for a moment, "I'm sorry I didn't listen to you guys," Donnie finally said.
"And I'm sorry I called you an airhead," Twilight apologized.
"And I'm sorry for being a stickler," Leo added.
"And I'm sorry I snapped at you, Donnie," Sunset said, "I know didn't mean to strand us in here. Still friends?"
Donnie put a hand on her shoulder, "Always."
Suddenly, the ground shook, "What was that?" Spike asked "An earthquake?"
"I don't think so," said Twilight, "We're not near any fault lines?"
"It came from over there," Pinkie pointed to some bushes.
Leo pushed the bushes aside and everyone gasped, "Oh my gosh! Guys, look!"
Right in front of them was a large wall. The group quickly scaled up it and peeked over the side.
"Oh, no!" Sunset's eyes widened.
On the other side of the wall were their old enemies, the Triceratons. Some of them were using jackhammers. Others were using dinosaurs to pull carts, zapping them if they stopped. The earthquake was caused by a laser blasting the ground.
"Hey guys?" came Casey's voice.
The story was interrupted, as Casey spoke to the others, "Mind if I get some more marshmallows?" Casey asked.
"Sure go ahead," Leo said.
"Be right back."
"I’ll help," Rainbow got up.
"Me too," said Applejack, as they got up and followed Casey.
"So, uh, did you guys always have the same weapons?" Gloriosa asked.
"Sometimes the right weapon chooses you as well as you choose it." Splinter informed.
"But there were times we practiced using other weapons," Raph noted, "One time I used these tonfas and-"
"We’re back!" Casey, Rainbow Dash, and Applejack returned with more bags of marshmallows.
"And don't eat all these ones too, Pinkie." Applejack looked right at her, as Pinkie smiled with her mouth full.
"So how could the Triceratons be around one million years ago?" Luna wondered.
"They were probably just beginning to hunt and destroy the Kraang," Bishop noted, "I would not be the least bit surprised."
"Well, actually," Twilight corrected, "From the looks of things, they appeared to be mining for something."
"A Tricereton base?" Donnie said, in disbelief, "All the way back in the Cretaceous?"
"I was hoping I'd never see those horn-heads again!" Rainbow said, "Well, except maybe Traximus and Zeno, those guys are cool."
"Look at all those soldiers, this is crazy," said Leo, "What are the odds?"
"Dudes, look," Mikey pointed at two Brachiosaurs pulling mine carts, a guard zapped at one to keep moving "They enslaved those poor little dinosaurs!"
"Oh, no!" Fluttershy cried.
"We gotta do something," Mikey said.
A red search laser was beaming all over the base. The group ducked down before it could detect them.
"Alright," Leo said, "We go in, full ninja mode, see what the Triceretons are up to."
Mikey hung upside down, "Be stealthy, my ninjas."
"Super stealthy," Pinkie appeared behind him.
They climbed over the wall and began sneaking around, hiding behind some of the excavated rocks. Leo looked at one of the carts. Inside, among all the dirt, he saw some familiar cyan crystals, "It's the Time Crystals!"
"Shhh!" everyone hissed.
"They're mining time crystals."
"Talk about convenient." said Spike.
"This is great," Donnie grinned, "There's more than enough to get us home."
"So how are we gonna get it, genius?" Raph asked.
"Yeah," agreed Applejack "We can't just waltz up there a take some."
"I got this, dudes," Mikey said.
"Me too," put in Pinkie.
"Mikey, Pinkie, no..." Twilight said, but it was too late.
Mikey and Pinkie Pie snuck over to a cart, where a big guard stood next to it. They both reached in a took two crystals, but the crystals slipped from their fingers. Everyone gasped as the crystals landed near the guard with a clang. But the guard didn't notice, he just stood there and picked his nose.
"Blah!" Rainbow stuck out her tongue in disgust, while the others sighed in relief.
"Phew!" Mikey leaned against the cart.
"That was close." said Pinkie.
But once again, she spoke too soon. The cart fell over and Mikey and Pinkie along with it, making a loud noise. The guard definitely noticed that.
"Again?!" Raph snapped, "You two are doopier than that dinosaur right there!" he point to a Brachiosaurs that grunted.
"Alien intruders!" alerted the guard.
"Turtles and Rainbooms, attack!" Leo drew his swords. Then he and Sunset attacked the guard with their weapons, while Twilight threw punches and kicks at him. But their attacks did no damage and the guard simply swatted them away. Mikey and Pinkie weren't having any luck with another guard, either.
"Dudes, I think I'd rather be fighting that T-Rex again," Mikey said.
"Yeah, we're way out of practice with these guys." said Pinkie, and she and Mikey were knocked into the others.
Leo realized Pinkie was right, they were out of practice. Not to mention, out muscled and severely out numbered, "Let's move, guys!" he called, and the ninjas retreated.
"Unleash the RoboRaptors!" another guard shouted.
"RoboRaptors?!" the girls looked back. A door opened and robotic raptors came sprinting out.
"Run, like you never run before!" Leo said, as the all scrambled over the wall and ran for their lives, with the raptors right behind them. One nipped at Mikey.
"Ahhh! Faster-faster-faster!" Mikey cried, as he and Pinkie ran ahead of the others before coming to a jolting stop, "Whoa!"
"Cliff!" Pinkie shouted, she and Mikey stopped everyone from running right off it. But now they were trapped, and the RoboRaptors had them surrounded.
"As if live raptors weren't bad enough!" Rarity shivered.
"We can't run. We gotta fight!" Raph said.
"Bring'um down'" Leo ordered.
"Booyakasha!" Mikey, Pinkie, and Fluttershy leaped at one raptor, only for it to tail wack them. One tackled Donnie, Applejack, and Rarity. Another snapped at Leo, Twilight, and Sunset's behinds. And Raph and Rainbow were slammed by another raptor's tail. The group laid defenseless at the very edge of the cliff as the raptors closed in.
"There's just too many!" Donnie exclaimed.
"And they're too strong!" put in Twilight.
"Good bye, cruel pizza!" Mikey moaned.
The raptors came closer, ready to finish them, when something got their attention. A Stegosaurus tail smashed away three of them!
"Maurice?!" Fluttershy said in surprise.
A Pteranodon flew in and grabbed another.
"Terry!?" said Rainbow.
Terry dropped the raptor and the Triceratops rammed it off the cliff.
"Zog!" Pinkie cheered.
"Whoa?" Leo said in amazement.
Zog and Maurice roared and grunted at the remaining raptors and they retreated, "Now that goes in the Top 5 Most Awesome Moments in My Li,fe folder!" Raph said to the dinos.
Fluttershy ran over and cuddled the Stegosaurus, "Thank you, Maurice!"
Twilight petted Zog, "Thanks!"
"You friendly dinos you!" Pinkie said.
"You were wonderful, darlings!" Rarity said, before she got licked by Maurice, "So much for not getting Dino slobber on me."
"Terry!" Rainbow hugged the Pterosaur, "You came back!"
"Nice work!" said Applejack.
"Thank you very much," Sunset rubbed Zog's nose, then she had an idea and turned to the others, "You guys thinking what I’m thinking?"
"If you’re thinking we need these Dinos to combat the Triceratons, then all I can say is AWESOME!" Rainbow threw her fist in the air.
At the Triceraton base, Bebop, Rocksteady, Adagio, and Aria were tossed into a laser cell, "Get your dirty hands off me, you Darn Dirty Dinos!" Sonata growled, as she was tossed into the cell.
"That'll hold those strange aliens." a guard said, then he and his partner left.
"Come back here and say that to my face, you horn-headed jerks!" Aria shook her fists.
"Who you calling strange," Bebop added, "You got a mirror handy?"
"Well, this isn’t how I wanted to spend our weekend." Aria crossed her arms.
"Well, this would be fitting if we were our older selves." Adagio said.
"Girls?" Sonata asked.
"What?!" both Adagio and Aria snapped.
"Don’t drop the soap."
"Augh!" Aria groaned "We need to get outta here!"
"I get us out!" Rocksteady declared.
"And I'll help," added Sonata. But the minute they grabbed the bars they were instantly shocked and collapsed, "Or not..." Sonata moaned, her hair poofed up and static-like.
"We is trapped, comrade Bebop," Rocksteady said in worry, "What will we does?"
Bebop pinched his chin in thought, "They deactivated my weapons, but they didn't check my boots, son," he reached into his boot and pulled up a small purse.
"What's that supposed to be?" Aria asked in sarcasm, while drumming her fingers on the floor.
"Secret Stealth Pack, ya dig. Check it out, I got flash powder, lock picks, breath mints, shurikens!"
"Ooh, I call shurikens!" Rocksteady raised his hand.
"Dibs on mints!" Sonata chimed in.
"No way, man," Bebop told Rocksteady, "I think I can use them to do... this!" using the shuriken, Bebop reflected one of the laser bars at a generator destroying it and shutting down the rest of the bars "You see that. Hee-hee!"
"Yeah," Rocksteady pumped his fists, "You is man!"
"Finally!" Aria pushed past them. Bebop frowned.
"Don’t take it personal," Adagio told him, "That’s her way of saying 'thank you'. Even I’m impressed."
"So could I still have the mint?" Sonata asked.
"Maybe later."
"We're not out'ah this yet," Bebop pointed out, "Come on let's go!"
But they didn't get very far before Sonata accidentally stepped on motion sensor. The five of them dove at the floor to avoid laser shoots. Then the alarm blared out.
"Oh, no!" Sonata cried.
"Nice going, Sonata!" Aria glared at her.
"Let's move, man!" Bebop shouted, "Come on let's go!"
The mutant duo and the Sirens ran through the halls, dodging laser blasts and even avoiding a big metal ball, "This reminds me of video game I played once." Sonata recalled.
"Shut up, Sonata!" ordered her sisters.
Soon they made it outside and panted, "Can we go home now?" asked Sonata.
"What is this?!" came a female voice. Walking out from the base, was lady Triceraton, "Alien prisoners, escaping!"
The mutants and sirens, were once again surrounded by Triceraton guards, aiming their blasters at them.
The mutant duo of Bebop and Rocksteady along with the Dazzlings were once again surrounded by Triceraton Guards.
"There gonna vaporize us, dawg!" Bebop cried.
Rocksteady held him close, "I love you, Bebop! Hold me tight!"
Sonata grabbed hold of Adagio and Aria, "You were best sisters and friends a siren could ask for!"
However, the lady Tricereton raised her hand and the guards lowered their blasters. then she turned to one of the guards "Lieutenant Zorg, take the mutants and humans to my command center."
"As you wish, General Zera," the guard responded.
"No-no-no-no-no, hold up, lady," Bebop waved his hands, then motioned to Rocksteady, "Don't you know this guy? Look at him, he's one of you, of course! He's a cousie-whuzz!"
"Yeah," Sonata pointed to Rocksteady's horns, "Don't you see the see the family resemblance?"
"Um, da! We is cousins," Rocksteady said, "We are same species of... Alien Horn People!"
"Really?" Adagio gave them a flat look.
Soon they were tossed into a small cage, "Ah, man!" Rocksteady groaned "Trick no work."
"Gee, yah think?!" Aria glared at him.
"Shhh, quiet down, girl, they got some kind of plan cooking." Bebop said.
"Uh, Zera, was it?" Adagio asked, "Mind telling me what it is you're doing?"
"Seeing as how you are in no position to do anything, I'll tell you," Zera began, "Not long ago, our planet was destroyed by our most vile enemy: the Kraang!"
"Hey! We hate those guys too," Sonata spoke up, "As Aria would say, 'they're the worst!'"
"Newly crowned Emperor Zanmoran declared, that we would hunt down and annihilate every last Kraang in the entire galaxy, and not let anything or anyone stand in our way," Zera continued, "My army and I were sent here to scout out for any possible Kraang outposts. But instead of the Kraang, we discovered this." Zera held up one of the time crystals.
"A crystal?" Aria said, uninterested.
"These crystals have very unique properties," Zera explained, "When used correctly, they have the power to control the very force of time!"
"You mean, you can use them to time travel?" Adagio asked.
"The aura of Time will empower us in ways your pitiful minds could never conceive," Zera went on, "Our great race of Tricereatons will reap any time period we want. We can restore our glorious empire and rule the galaxy!"
"That sounds great." a Triceraton stationary said to another.
"That's sounds terrible!" Bebop whimpered.
"For once, I agree with the warthog." Aria said, with wide eyes.
"We better come up with plan soon, comrades." Rocksteady said.
"Zera, listen to me," Adagio started.
"Silence!" a soldier ordered.
Zera cut him off, "No, let her speak."
"I'm sorry for what the Kraang did to you and your people, but doing this will just lead you down a path we nearly took!" Adagio reasoned, "You don’t have to do this."
Zera wasn't swayed "You’re right. We CHOOSE to do this!"
"So much for negotiation." Adagio frowned.
Later, the Turtles and Rainbooms were heading back to the Triceraton base riding on top of their new dinosaur friends. Leo, Twilight, and Sunset rode Zog. Mikey, Pinkie, and Fluttershy rode Maurice. Raph and Rainbow rode Terry. But Donnie, Applejack, and Rarity just walked.
"Alright," said Leo, "Let's go back and get those time crystals."
"And free the dinosaurs!" Fluttershy added.
"Donnie, if we're going into battle, your gonna need a dinosaur, brah," Mikey said.
"I'm cool with no dino," Donnie replied, "I have legs; I can walk."
"And Y'all saw what happened when I tried to ride one of those live raptors." Applejack reminded them.
"I thought you loved dinosaurs." Raph remarked to Donnie.
"Huh, not anymore," Donnie stated, "Not enough to ride'em."
"And I for one do not want to get coated in dino slober... again." Rarity frowned.
"Now what kind of dino would be perfect for you three?" Rainbow wondered humorously.
"Maybe one of those goofy duck-billed looking guys." Mikey joked.
Suddenly, their path was blocked by a familiar dino. Rex was back!
"Oh, no!" Rainbow exclaimed "Not you again!"
"Uh, hey, Rex, heh-heh!" Spike said nervously, "You're not mad about that hole jabbing you in the nose thing, during the TurtleBot fight, right?" Rex responded with a loud roar, "Yep he's totally mad."
"Ok, everyone, follow my lead!" Pinkie said and screamed.
Everyone else screamed and took off on their dinos, while Donnie and two Rainbooms ran, with Rex chasing after them again. He tried to snap at Donnie's head but the turtle pulled it into his shell, before popping it back out, screaming.
As they all ran, Mikey spotted a cave up ahead, "Dudes, into the cave!" and the ninjas and dinos ran inside and Donnie was the last one in after Rex nipped him in the butt. Rex stuck his head inside and roared. But then noticed he couldn't fit in all the way.
"Oh, no! We're trapped," Twilight cried.
"There's no way out!" Leo added, "This is barely a cave! What've you done, Mikey?!"
"It's a two part plan, dog," Mikey held up his two fingers.
"Yeah, that was only part one." Pinkie chimed in.
"Then what's part two?" Sunset asked.
Mikey answered by pulling out a smelly slice of pizza. Raph, Rainbow, and Terry did a three way face palm.
"Seriously?!" Rainbow exclaimed.
"It's been confirmed," Raph stated, "You really are an idiot!"
Mikey ignored Raph and held the slice up to Donnie, "Take it, Donnie. Make peace. No animal, in any time period, can resist Pepperoni, Maple Syrup and Peppermint Sprinkles." Mikey stuck the slice in Donnie's face, "Trust me, Donnie."
"He's right," Pinkie pointed to Rex, "Look!" Rex sniffed at the slice a licked his lips
"Go to him," Mikey advised, " Peace, Love, and Animals."
Donnie gulped and slowly approached Rex.
"Well, nice knowing you, Don," Raph said, "Can I have the Shellraiser and the Stealth Bike?" Sunset elbowed him in the arm.
Everyone held their breath as Donnie nervously held out the slice "Here T-Rex... Nice T-Rex... please don't eat me!" Rex took the slice in his mouth and ate it. Then he stuck tough and panted like a dog. Even giving Donnie an affectionate lick, much to his disgust. Then he rolled over on his back. He was now tamed. Leo, Raph, and the girls couldn't believe their eyes; Mikey's plan had worked!
"No... way?!" Rainbow's eyes widened.
"You've... gotta be pulling my bo-staff?!" Donnie said in disbelief.
"Didn't see that coming." said Spike.
Rex got out of the cave, allowing the others to get out as well. Raph slapped Donnie in the shell, "Go ahead, Donnie. You and the girls climb on."
"Ride a Tyrannosaurus Rex?!" Donnie retorted.
"Tell me you do not expect us to ride that beast!" Rarity said.
"Ain't no way we're ridin' that monster!" Applejack refused, "And there's nothin' that'll change our-"
"Oh, no!" both Rarity and Applejack cried. Two Tricereton guards emerged from the jungle.
"There! The Turtles warriors!" one said, and they fired their blasters. Donnie and the girls dodged the blaster shoots.
"Our minds are changed!" Applejack said.
"No time to ride like the present!" Donnie said.
"Agreed!" said Rarity, as they flipped up onto Rex's back, then he snapped his jaws at one of the guards and roared at the other. The two Triceratons screamed and fled. Rex gave a roar of triumph.
"Yee-haw!" Applejack waved her hat.
"Nice Rex," Donnie patted the dino, "Now, let's get that meteorite, and go home."
"Whoo!" Raph threw his fist in the air.
"Whoa-whoa!" Mikey held up a sign of his hand (courtesy of Pinkie Pie), "We need to gear up first, dudes. You know, like one of those montages in action movies."
"Mikey's right," Pinkie popped up next to him "We gotta look the part. And all this must've inspired you to make prehistoric fashion, Rarity."
Rarity thought about it "Well, now that you mentioned, darling..."
Later, the Turtles were trying to pull some fur off a giant skeleton; Zog came up and helped them. After that, they brought them to Rarity, who had built a sewing machine out of a rock and sticks, that was powered by Mikey running on a makeshift treadmill, with Pinkie holding out a pizza slice for motivation. Leo fished out trilobite. Twilight dug through a pile of bones and picked up a raptor claw. After a coconut bonked Mikey in the head, he used it for kneepads. Soon, the Turtles and Rainbooms were dressed like cave people.
"Booyakasha!" Mikey cheered.
After that, they built weapons from whatever they could find: Leo had stone katanas and his trilobite shield. Sunset Shimmer had stone kunai. Twilight Sparkle made a kamayari with a stick, a stone spear head, and raptor claws. Mikey and Pinkie Pie had chain weapons out of bones. Raph had stone sais. Rainbow Dash had a traditional spear. Fluttershy had a stick blowpipe with small pointed bones for ammo. Rarity had sickles made from stone blades and sticks. Applejack had strapped stone blades to her wrists. And Donnie just had stick for bo-staff.
Then they made saddles, pads, and even masks for each of the dinos, in the Turtles' signature colors: Zog blue. Terry red. Rex purple. And Maurice orange.
Once they were ready, each Turtle and Rainboom boarded their dino. Leo gave a battle cry, "He-yah-la-la-la-la-la!" Then the dinos charged toward the Triceraton base.
"Got any good escape plan, comrade Bebop?" Rocksteady asked.
"You bet I do," Bebop said "Ladies, you charm the guard. Then you knock him out, Rock. Then I'll grab that key-looking rock on his belt. And we use their commlink to try and contact the Turtles T-phones!"
"That sounds like a bad plan," Zera looked down at them, "You don't have a comm signal in this period."
"Deep, yo! Deep-deep-deep-deep-deep-"
"General!" a stationary interrupted Bebop's rant, and pointed to something on the monitor "Take a look at this."
"Hmm," Zera narrowed her eyes, seeing a cloud of dust heading for them, "Zoom in." Screen zoomed in to reveal...
"It's our friends!" Sonata exclaimed, "The Turtles and Rainbooms!"
"The Turtles and Rainbooms have domesticated the dinos?" Zera asked.
"What should we do, General Zera?" another stationary asked.
"Round up the troops!" Zera ordered "Protect the premier! Activate the Robo Spinosaurs!"
One of the stationaries typing in activation codes and on the monitor screen, big doors slid open. Bebop, Rocksteady, and Sonata huddled together, cowering.
The Turtles, Rainbooms, and their dinos had just arrived, when something big smashed through the wall. The group and their dinos dodged the debris and look up.
"What the heck is that?!" Leo asked in surprise.
As the dust settled, the first thing they saw was spinning blade spine, and they could see, towering over them was a robot Spinosaurs. It was ten times bigger than Rex!
"Looks like they were expecting us," Pinkie said
"Oh, we're in a deep deep pile of dino p-" Donnie was cut off as the Spinosaurs roared.
The Spinosaurus roared loudly and the group stood their ground.
Leo pointed his sword "Turtles, Rainbooms, and Dinos to battle, Hee-yahhaha!"
The dinosaurs charged at the Spinosaurus. Zog rammed into it, but Spinosaurus was much stronger than they all thought. It flattened Zog with it's head and tail whacked him away. Terry flew around the Spinosaurus, trying to distract it for Rex to attack. But the Spinosaurus grabbed the T-Rex by the tail and body slammed him hard.
"Dino-bunga!" Mikey shouted, as Maurice swung his tail at the Spinosaurs' leg. But that did nothing, except hurt the Stegosaur's tail.
"Oh no!" Fluttershy covered her mouth.
"Ok, that's a problem," Mikey said. Then he, Pinkie, and Fluttershy screamed when Spinosaurus roared and Maurice scrambled to avoid its jaws. Then it was suddenly hit with rocks, courtesy of Terry.
"Can't catch us, Spino!" Rainbow mocked, then she and Raph gasped when the Spinosaurus fired lasers from its eyes.
"Swoop, Pteranodon, down." Raph called, as Terry dodged the laser blasts.
Zog charged the Spinosaurus again, but it caught him in mouth and tossed him into the air, and right for his bladed spine. But Rex rammed the spino away at the last minute.
"Ha ha! Yes!" cheered Donnie.
"We got 'em!" Applejack called.
The Spinosaurus got up ready to fight again. Leo stood on top of Zog's horns then pointed his sword and yelled out as the dinosaurs charged at the robot. Leo jumped off Zog toward the Spinosaurus, the robot opened it's mouth to chomp Leo, but Terry grabbed him and dropped him back onto Zog. The whole thing was just a distraction so the Spinosaurus was left open to Rex, who rammed the robot and chomped down on it's left arm. Maurice swung his tail and jammed his spikes into the robot's thigh. The Spinosaur leaned it's blade at Mikey, but Zog blocked it with his horns. However, the Spinosaurus unleashed an electrical charge that blasted all the dinos off it. Then it stomped toward them. It was damaged but not damaged enough.
"Okay," Sunset panted, "That Spinosaurus... way too strong."
"And I thought the robo raptors were too much to handle." Twilight groaned.
"But," Sunset added, "We've got one last trick up our sleeves," All the Rainbooms, minus Twilight nodded and stood before the Spinosaurus, all joined in hand "This Spinosaurus may be tough, but we've have something it doesn't. Honesty! Laughter! Generosity! Loyalty! Kindness!" As she spoke, the Rainbooms ponied up and rose above the massive robot "The Spinosaurus is strong, but it's no match for the Magic of Friendship!"
With those words, the Rainbooms shot out a rainbow beam right at the Spinosaurus! It's eyes spiraled out as it blew up in a massive explosion.
"Yes!" the Turtles cheered.
But when the smoke cleared, there stood Zera and her soldiers- armed with their blasters.
Leo jumped down from Zog and pointed his sword at the alien dinos, "The Spinosaur's toast! Take down the Triceratons!"
"Booyakasha!" Mikey shouted, as the Turtles and Rainbooms drew their prehistoric weapons and went into battle.
Back inside the base, the Dazzlings and the two mutants were watching everything on the monitor. They would have gone out to help them, if a guard hadn't been ordered to stay behind and watch them.
"Told them the Turtles and Rainbooms would kick their butts." Sonata said.
"We gotta get out of here!" Aria pulled on the bars.
"My thoughts exactly," Adagio agreed, "And as much I regret this, there's only one way...
"Oh, no..." Aria groaned and shut her eyes, "Please tell me we don't have to!"
"We have to." Adagio replied.
Sonata whistled to the guard, "Oh, Mr. Triceraton!"
The guard turned around and looked at the Dazzlings. Sonata waved and batted her eyes, Aria winked, and Adagio blew a kiss. The guard stood there, staring in a cold sweat. Right before he was sucker punched in the face by Rocksteady, knocking him out cold.
"I can't believe that actually worked!" Adagio said in disbelief.
"I told'ya it'd work, girl! Ha-ha-ha!" Bebop said as he grabbed the keys.
Soon they escaped the cage and joined in the fray.
Back outside the Turtles and Rainbooms were still battling the Triceratons. This time, however, they were actually plowing through them!
Raph kicked one soldier and Donnie wacked a another. Leo used his trilobite shield to deflect the blaster shots, "Ah yah! Eat it, Dino!" Mikey said as he side-kicked another soldier in the face.
Twilight whacked a soldier with her weapon, Rainbow dodged a spear swing from another and kicked him in the head, and Applejack punch another with her ponified strength. Soon they were all, literary, plowing through the Triceratons.
"No, no, no!" Zera shouted in outrage. Then she spotted Bebop and Rocksteady stomping on a soldier the Dazzlings had taken down. She grabbed the mutant pair and held them out, "Halt Terrapins and Primates!" The fight instantly stopped, "If you continue, we will destroy your mutant friends."
"They're not our friends," Donnie retorted, "Wait?!"
It was then that the Turtles and Rainbooms finally noticed the mutant duo and Siren trio, "Bebop and Rocksteady?!" Rainbow said in surprise.
"And the Dazzlings?" Pinkie chimed in.
"How did all of you end up back here?" Sunset asked in confusion.
"Ask Tweedle Dumb and Tweedle Idiot over there." Aria pointed at the captured pair.
"Uh, is long story, comrade." Rocksteady explained.
"Free us and we'll help ya, dog," Bebop begged, "We'll beat these Tricera-fools!"
Annoyed, Zera smashed the mutant's heads together, before turning to the other,s "Surrender! Drop your weapons! I will not warn you twice..."
The group looked hesitant for a moment.
"Are we really doing this?" Raph asked in irritation "For those two jerks?"
"Well we can't let the Triceratons hurt them," Fluttershy noted, "Even they don't deserve that."
"And it looks they've been through worse than we have." Pinkie pointed out. Reluctantly, everyone dropped their weapons.
"So you accept defeat?" Zera asked.
"No!" Leo clenched his fists, "And neither do our dino friends!"
Before Zera knew what was happening, the dinosaurs suddenly appeared behind her! She turn around just in time to get whacked by Rex's tail, causing her to drop Bebop and Rocksteady, and land face first into the dirt.
The Turtles and Rainbooms picked up their weapons and the battle resumed. Triceraton soldiers ran in, lasers blazing, but that didn't stop the heroes. Zog rammed a soldier, Aria punched another, and Rocksteady slammed into one and tossed him, "Take this!" he grunted.
Rex had a soldier in his mouth and was shaking him back and forth, Maurice was pounding one in the gut with his tail, and Terry swooped down and grabbed another.
While the Turtles fought off more soldiers, the Rainbooms faced Zera.
Sunset kicked her in the face. Twilight slammed the stick part of her weapon down on Zera's foot. Pinkie Pie slapped her with her bone chain. And Rainbow Dash head butted her in the stomach. Then the Rainbooms leaped forward and with a loud "Hi-yah!" they all knocked into the Triceraton general, sending her crashing into a wall!
"We got her!" Pinkie exclaimed.
"Yeah!" Mikey cheered "You go, girls!"
But the fight wasn't over. Zera's arm burst out of the rubble, her gauntlet blinking with a raptor insignia. Zera got up, her face twisted in rage, and pointed to the ninjas as the Robo Raptors appeared by her side, "Destroy the Turtles and Rainbooms! And their dinosaur pets!"
The group paused before they screamed, "Not these guys again!" Rainbow hollered.
As Raptors sprinted right at them, the two teams scattered. One raptor tackled Donnie again. One lunged at Raph, but he grabbed it and body slammed it. And Leo blocked a raptor bite with his sword.
The Raptors charged at the dinos. Two jumped on Zog, with the dino trying to shake them off. One jumped on Maurice, and another lunged at him, but the stegosaurus quickly knocked it away with his tail. Two raptors tackled Rocksteady and bit into his arms, while the rhino mutant gave a battle cry. Three raptors clung on to Rex's arm, back, and tail. And as if things couldn't get worse, more Triceraton soldiers kept firing their blasters.
Terry was standing on a large rock while avoiding two raptors, when Raph and Rainbow jumped off them and on to her back.
"Too many Triceratons!" Raph called " We need a backup plan!"
"Yeah, we're totally outnumbered!" Rainbow put in, while Terry lifted up the rock and dropped it on the soldiers. But that didn't stop the raptors from coming.
"Donnie, what about the Robo Raptors?" Leo asked, as he blocked two raptors with his sword and shield, "Can you reprogram them?"
Donnie nailed one with his stick staff and replied "Let's see."
"Go, we'll cover you!" Sunset said, as she jammed her stone kunai into mouth a raptor and kicked it down.
Mikey and Pinkie screamed as they swung their bone weapons at two more raptors. Donnie quickly flipped over to a control panel, pried it open with his staff, and begin typing away.
Applejack and Rainbow Dash had taken down another soldier when something caught Applejack's eye, "Oh, no!"
Donnie was so busy he hadn't noticed that Zera had a blaster aimed right at him! "Donnie, behind you!" Rainbow cried.
However, before Zera could fire...
"Hee-hee!" Bebop came out of nowhere and kicked the weapon right out of Zera's hand, much to her irritation
"I told'ya we'd help!" Bebop exclaimed, right before he was pounded in the head by Zera.
"You fool!" she growled.
"Ow!"
But Bebop had given Donnie just the time he needed. As he finished, the red raptor on the screen turned green, "Yes!"
No sooner had he said that, the Robo Raptors stopped fighting, and their red eyes turned green. The raptors that were attacking Rocksteady stopped, one of them even put his turtle shell helmet back on. But the mutant rhino was already beaten up, "Oh, that really hurt!" he moaned.
The two raptors who attacked Mikey and Pinkie were now fanning them with a leaf and serving them grapes.
"Uh, Donnie?" Twilight asked, "Just what did you do to the Robo Raptors?"
"Well, they're programmed to attack anything specific," Donnie explained, "So, I programmed something specific for them to attack."
"And what would that be- oooohhh..." Pinkie said, instantly getting the hint.
The Robo Raptors looked at Zera and her soldiers and envisioned their heads as food. Panting like dogs, the raptors ditched the ninjas and went after the Triceratons instead.
"Retreat, Triceratons, reteat!" Zera shouted as she and the other Triceratons fled, with the raptors in hot pursuit.
Once the Triceratons were gone, Fluttershy ran around releasing all the imprisoned dinosaurs, "Go, big dinos, be free!" she cried in joy.
With happy grunts, the dinosaurs lumbered out of the hole the Robo Spinosaurus made; free at last.
The Turtles, Rainbooms, and Dazzlings stood in triumph at their victory. They had defeated the Triceratons before they would defeat them in the future. However, their moment of glory was ruined by...
"Yes! We are awesome!" Bebop cheered, as Rocksteady pumped his muscle.
"Hey, that's my line!" Rainbow frowned.
Bebop ignored her and continued, "Are we not an incredible team or what? Yes, maybe?"
"Can you please giving us the ride back to the future?" Rocksteady asked with puppy dog eyes, "Yes? Please?"
"We won't leave you here," Leo stated, "But you gotta promise to turn over a new leaf."
"Yo, check this out!" Bebop turned to a random leaf, "Leaf, turn over. Turn over, leaf!" He pointed a dagger at it, "You better turn over!" Strangely enough, the leaf turned over, "You see, man. It's that easy. Boom! We're like good guys!" Leo sighed.
"Fine, make yourselves useful," Raph said, "Grab that time stuff, so we can go home."
"We are on it, comrade Turtles." Rocksteady saluted, then he and Bebop went to gather the mined time crystals.
"How did you put up with those two?" Rainbow asked the Dazzlings.
"Not easy, I can assure you." Adagio replied.
"Yeah," Aria added, "Those two are the worst!"
"But they were good for a laugh!" Sonata chuckled.
"And maybe one day they'll really turn over a new leaf." Pinkie guessed.
"I doubt it." Rainbow said dryly.
Just then Fluttershy felt something nudge her leg. It was Angel, "You again?!" Raph growled.
However, Fluttershy picked up the little dino and held him in front of the others, "Everyone, Angel here has something to say. Right, Angel?" she added, sternly.
Angel nodded and blew a raspberry in Raph's face. But then Fluttershy gave him, "The Stare." The dino recoiled in fear and chirped as if to say 'sorry for all the trouble I caused you'.
"That's a good dino," Fluttershy nodded and put him down, "Now run along home, Angel."
Angel scampered off. But not before climbing up a small rock pile and tossing a rock on Raph's foot.
"Eeeyow!" Raph shouted in pain.
Angel gave a laughing chortle and scurried away into the jungle.
"I HOPE YOU'RE THE FIRST TO GO EXTINCT, YOU ROTTEN LITTLE GECKO!" Raph shook his fists.
Meanwhile, Donnie and Twilight were checking out the Spinosaurus, "I bet, Twilight and I can salvage parts from the Spinosaurus to fix the ship." Donnie theorized.
"But the bigger challenge is calculating the correct coronal passion to travel to the future." Twilight pondered.
"Right, could you two maybe just hurry." Leo called.
Later the girls, mutants, and dinosaurs were standing before the Shellformer, "Whoo," Leo wiped his forehead, "That wasn't such a chore. It only took, three days of non stop work!"
"Finally, let's go home!" Mikey said.
Before they left, everyone had something to say to their dinosaur friends.
Leo petted Zog, "Goodbye, little big fella," he then held out granola bar, "Here, take my last Chris Bradford Survival Crunch granola bar, it has raisins." Zog ate the bar right out of Leo's hand and then belched in his face, but Leo didn't care.
Twilight petted Zog along with Sunset "You take care of yourself, Zog."
"And thank you for everything." Sunset added.
"Maybe this trip wasn't so bad after all." Spike said.
Up on the makeshift platform, they had built during their time fixing the Shellformer, Donnie, Rarity, and Applejack hugged Rex.
"Bye, Rex," Donnie said, "You were the best Cretaceous friend a turtle could have."
"Bet that's a sentence, no one ever said before." Bebop noted.
I'll miss ya too, sugarcube." Applejack said.
"You really are sweet for a carnivore, Rex," Rarity added sweetly, until Rex slobbered the three of them in one lick, "I so need a shower first thing when we get back!"
Adagio chuckled, but then Rex turned to her, "No-no-no-no-no!" Rex licked the siren, getting her covered in dino drool, "Oh, no..." Rarity and Applejack laughed. Until Adagio flung some drool in their faces and then it was her turn to laugh.
Mikey, Pinkie, and Fluttershy were saying goodbye to Maurice.
"I'll miss you, Maurice. I love you, man," Mikey then bawled as he, Pinkie, and Sonata hugged the Stegosaurus.
"I'm gonna miss you too!" Pinkie cried.
"I wish we could take you with us." Sonata whimpered.
Fluttershy calmly petted Maurice, "But this is your home." she said, while also reminding the three.
On a rock, Raph and Rainbow looked at Terry.
"Seriously, your making me a little misty eyed," Raph said, and turned away from Terry, "Fly away, girl."
"Yeah Terry," Rainbow added, " And I don’t wanna be sappy so just, goodbye!"
But as terry took off, the two looks up, teary eyed.
"I’ll never forget you." Rainbow whispered.
"You two did good." Aria said.
Raph and Rainbow quickly wiped their tears away as Leo spoke, "Alright team, let's go home. Right Donnie and Twilight, I mean, nothing bad going to happen from this point on?"
"Uh..." Donnie rubbed his arm.
"Well..." Twilight glanced away, nervously.
"Right?" Leo asked, worried.
"Well, according to Murphy's Law..." Donnie stared, before noticing everyone was looking tense, "Um, why yes, Leo. Smooth as silk!"
"What is Murphy's Law?" Pinkie asked Twilight.
"'What can go wrong, will go wrong,'" Twilight muttered.
Soon everyone was back in the Shellformer ready to take off, "I can't to relax back in the lair, play some videogames." Leo started.
"Eat some pizza. Watch some tv." Mikey listed off.
"See our families." Applejack added.
"Play some sports." Rainbow pumped a fist.
"Wash up." Rarity put in, dryly.
"And best of all, throw a 'Welcome Home from our Prehistoric Adventure party!" exclaimed Pinkie.
"And I can't wait to see my animal friends again." Fluttershy smiled.
"And I can finally find a fire hydrant." Spike chimed in.
"Assuming we can get back." Sunset pointed out, knowing full well that Donnie and Twilight were not sure.
"Hope this works, this isn't a time machine." said Donnie, "Me and Twilight had to do some calculations based on Temporal-"
"Yeah-yeah!" Raph interrupted, "Let's just go!
Donnie started the Shellformer then it took off and warped out. The dinos watched as Rex let out a farewell roar.
Later, the Shellformer warped in and skid-landed on top of a building. The door open and everyone peeked out.
"Did we... make it?" Leo asked, as they all looked around.
Everyone looked and saw buildings with spikes and red windows.
"Holy Chalupa!" Raph said.
Everywhere they looked, they saw signs that either said "OBEY" "SUBMIT" "CONSUME" "SLEEP 8 HOURS"
"Where the heck are we?" asked Bebop.
"Huh, any place better than dinosaur place." Rocksteady stated.
"Big time!" Aria agreed.
"Whoa, dudes, I think we're on the moon!" Mikey marveled.
"Then why's it over there?" Pinkie asked, and pointed at it.
"That's because we're not," Donnie answered, "We're in New York. In, the future?"
"I don't think it's our future." Sunset thought out loud.
"I’m not seeing any bakery’s for one!" Pinkie looked out.
Leo glanced at something in the distance, "You gotta be kidding me!"
Everyone looked to see, towering over the city was a huge statue of the Shredder! The Turtles weapons at his feet, and raising his right blade in the air, victoriously.
"A giant statue of Shredder, in the future, can't be a good thing." Raph noted.
"Oh, no! No-no-no-no-no, I was afraid this would happen!" Twilight panicked "By messing around in the past, we created an alternate future where Shredder won!"
"Calm down, Twilight," Donnie eased, "There's high possibility that this future is only a paradox. Which means, we still have our future to go back to. Uh, once we find the right coronal position, that is."
"Any chance any of our loved ones are still alive?" Applejack wondered.
"Looks like we’ll have to investigate," Sunset stated, then she turned to Dazzlings, "Care to help us out?"
"Well, we had planned on visiting you guys." Adagio noted.
"YAY! We finally get to hang out!" Sonata cheered.
"First, let’s find a place to change back into our normal clothes," Rarity said, "Not that I don't adore our Prehistoric Sheik!"
"The sooner, the better," Aria grumbled, "I think I’m getting a rash."
"And Finally I can find that fire hydrant!" Spike chimed in.
Donnie looked at Leo, "So, how 'bout we check the place out? Just for ten minutes or so?"
Leo faced palmed. But noticed Raph, Rainbow, had drew their weapons, signaling that they were on board with the plan.
"Hee-hee!" Bebop hooted.
"Dah, dah!" Rocksteady pounded his fists.
"Urgh," Twilight groaned, "At least things can't get any worse."
Leo rolled his eyes "Not again." But he drew his swords out, ready to face whatever this future had.
"Booyakasha!" Mikey and Pinkie shouted as the mutants and girls leaped out toward their next adventure!
The scene cut back to the campfire, as the heroes finishing telling their story.
"And so we jumped into action, fought off a bunch of Karai robots, met dark, broken, grizzled versions of ourselves, and all banded together to stop the Shredder once and for all, and after that, they helped us get home to our right time period. But let me tell you, that future was not pretty, Mmm mmm!" Pinkie said it all at once.
"What an intriguing story," commented Principal Celestia, "That would explain how you all got good marks your geology tests."
"Facinating!" Micro Chips marveled.
"Sounds frightening and cool!" Flash Sentry said.
"I liked the part when you made peace with the dinosaurs," Sandalwood said, "Especially you with the Trex, Donnie."
"I always knew you were brave, D." April nudged Donnie and he chuckled, while rubbing the back of his head.
"My favorite parts were when Twilight outsmarted Tiger Claw twice." Timber grinned at Twilight.
Twilight blushed and chuckled, "Well I had good teachers." She smiled at Leo who nodded.
"But whatever happened to Zera?" Vice Principal Luna asked.
"According to Utrom database, she was considered missing in action. Possibly perished when the dinosaurs went extinct." Bishop explained.
"If the Robo Raptors didn't eat her first." Rainbow noted.
"What about Bebop and Rocksteady?" Trixie asked.
Sunset sighed, "As we expected, they immediately went back to Shredder, once we got home."
"But it was fun to watch Pinkie chase after them, ready to beat the snot out of them." Rainbow snickered.
"Well they did pinkie promise and broke it!" Pinkie fumed and crossed her arms.
"You think they’ll ever change?" Derpy asked.
"It’s a possibility." Karai guessed.
"Perhaps." Shini shrugged.
"Hey Donnie," said Snips, "What ever happened to your Turtle Bot?"
"It got totaled in the future in our battle with Shredder." Donnie replied.
Snails whispered to Snips, "So much for asking to ride in it."
"I know right?" Casey agreed, with disappointment.
"I don’t who was tougher," Bulk Beiseps said to them, "The Raptors or the Triceratons."
"What a thrilling tale!" Gloriosa smiled, "Well it’s getting late and tomorrow’s our last full day at Camp Everfree."
Everyone got up and headed back to their tents, talking about activities for tomorrow.
Celestia turned to Splinter, "Would you like to join me for an early morning hike?"
"I would like that." Splinter smiled at her.
Sunset couldn't help but chuckle at the scene, but her happy face soon turned to a look a sadness, which Flash Sentry had noticed.
"Are you okay, Sunset?" he asked
"Huh? Oh, yeah," Sunset replied.
"Are you sure," Flash said, doubtfully.
"It's just..." Sunset shed a tear, "Talking about time travel, reminded me of... him!"
"You mean the friend who you traveled in space with?" Flash guessed, not fully knowing about Fugitoid, "And who sacrificed himself to save the earth?"
"Yeah," Sunset sighed "I know he had to do it, but I can't shake the fact that I miss him. He was the only one who truly understood me. And now, he's gone."
"I may not know who he was," Flash began "But, what I do know is that he was lucky to have a good friend like you. I know I am."
Sunset smiled at Flash's words and wrapped him in a hug, "Thanks, Flash."
"Well I did say we could start our friendship over," Flash said, "I guess this was a good way to start." Soon Flash and Sunset broke their hug and headed for their tents.
"And, this is just a thought, but maybe he's not completely gone." Flash said, before he went into his tent.
"His words are true, Sunset Shimmer."
Sunset turned to see Splinter standing behind her, "Master Splinter?"
"Though I may not have know the Professor as much as you have," Splinter went on, "But I do know that as long as you remember him in your heart, he will never be truly gone."
"I'll never forget him, sensei," Sunset put her hands to her heart.
Splinter smiled "And perhaps, young Flash Sentry was speaking literally, and the Professor is not completely lost."
"You think so?" Sunset asked with hope.
"The universe holds many mysteries, so I can not be certain," Splinter replied "But, I do know that there is always hope."
Sunset thought for a moment, then she turned to Splinter, "Whether he's gone or not, I won't give up hope."
Splinter smiled and nodded, "Goodnight, Sunset Shimmer." Then he turned and walked away.
"Goodnight, sensei," Sunset said, then she glanced up at the night sky, "I'll never forget you, Fugitoid. And wherever you are, thank you."
Above the Earth's atmosphere, floating among the debris of both the Ulixis and the Triceraton ships, the Fugitoid's eyes blinked before he suddenly reactivated.
