"That's gotta be what they stole!" Raph said and then moved away from the car. He then jumped after it and tried reaching for it. "I got it!" He yelled as the other four were nowhere to be seen. But Leo on the other hand, held both of his katanas in his hands. "With those clumsy hands? No, I got this one!" Leo laughed, but Raph had already grabbed it. But Raph gasped as he looked up to see Leo made a portal. Leo didn't think much of it until a red fist came through his side of the portal. Leo then crossed his swords and commanded the portal to close. It did as instruct but chopped off Raph clone's hand. Leo looked up and grunted in pain as he got punched in the face and fell to the ground. Raph landed on the ground and looked at what remained of his arm, Donnie landing close to Leo to see what had happened.

Mikey, Venus and Usagi landed by Leo as well but were more confused by the situation. "Ugghh, you portal-chopped him!" Donnie yelled as Leo sat up, Raph looking behind him with slight annoyance towards Leo. "Portal-chopped, I like it!" Leo said as he pointed to Donnie, his new black eye causing him to only look at Raph with a single eye. "Maybe my new catchphrase?" Leo suggested as he held his chin, Donnie looking to his twin with annoyance. "Okay, let's see how it fits." Leo said and then raised both hands. "You've been portal chopped!" Leo said and then began to sing a ditty as Donnie slowly pushed him to the ground. Usagi rushed over and held Leo's shoulder as the teen in blue stared at the ground. "Leo, are you alright?" Usagi asked as he kneeled down to Leo's level. Leo looked at Usagi with a smile.

"Do you know how handsome you look in this lighting?" Leo asked, Usagi just blinked at Leo and sighed. Grabbing his sword hilt and commanding a healing flower to appear out of the pavement. "Just look at the flower for like, three seconds." Usagi said and looked up, Donnie was recording yet again but looked up as Venus and Mikey snickered. "He has a concussion, be sure to add that to your text to April." Usagi said and turned back to Raph. His clone's hand skid against the ground but came to stop as it hit against Hypno's snout. Hypno reached for it, but was stopped as someone stepped on his hand. "Uh-uh-uh-uh." The person then reached down for the artifact and grabbed it as Raph-clone's hand began to disappear. "I'll be taking that." Everyone was on their guard as they saw the person who grabbed the artifact had turned out to be the Foot Lieutenant.

Above Hypno and Warren stood Foot Lieutenant and Foot Brute. "The Foot Clan?" Raph said in fear, his clone disappearing as everyone stood steady. Venus narrowed her eyes at the two, she knew about them and was still kinda annoyed cause it was their fault Shredder was released onto the world. Leo was also all healed up but Usagi stood next to Leo, his katana in hand, just in case the flower hadn't cleared up his concussion. "Finally, after all these centuries, this is ours!" Foot Lieutenant said as he held the artifact in hand. "Yes, well, of course, thanks to us, delivered safe and sound." Hypno said as he was picked up by Foot Brute. "No problemo, partner." Hypno said as Warren now rested on his shoulders. Foot Lieutenant looked at Hypno with annoyance, like he hated the idea he had to ask two mutants to find something their clan could find in centuries.

"Hey, just quietly, are we partners? We are partners, yeah?" Hypno asked Foot Brute as he wasn't all to convinced with Foot Lieutenant's expression. Foot Lieutenant Sighed in annoyance and smacked his forehead. The Foot Lieutenant then pulled back his hand and snapped his fingers, pink smoke appeared and allowed them all to disappear. "Hey!" Venus yelled and commanded a storm to grow in wind to make the clouds disappear before the people behind them did. But she was to late and groaned in annoyance as she strayed a few feet from the others. "Oh man, that thing must be dangerous if the Foot Clan wants it!" Mikey yelled while gripping the side of his head. Raph turned his gaze to Mikey but then to Leo with narrowed eyes. "Ya think?" Raph asked, his voice deeper than usual as he punched his hand softly. Mikey looked to where Raph was staring at and faltered, seeing a confused Leo as Usagi coughed from inhaling the smoke.

Leo put a hand on Usagi's back and stared at the pikathrope in worry as he tried to help Usagi. "You alright?" Leo asked, ready to make a portal to get something for Usagi to drink if it was needed. Usagi took a deep breath and exhaled. "Y-yeah, just inhaled some of that smoke." Usagi explained and placed a hand on his chest, allowing himself to breath. But then Leo felt a few gazes on him and turned around to see all of his siblings either glaring or looking at him. "What?" Leo asked as he clearly has grasped the issue at hand.

Back at the lair...

"I clearly said, 'I got it'. Everybody heard me say 'I got it'!" Raph yelled in anger as everyone was now in the same room from before they left for what was supposed to be training. Leo was walking towards his room and quickly turned around to look at Raph as the other four remained behind Raph. "Yeah, but I got it with style." Leo answered smugly before turning back around and putting his hands behind his head in a carefree manner. "But you didn't get it!" Raph yelled, Leo seeming to be unaffected by the words. "You lost it! And now, we got a Foot Clan situation, Leo!" Raph yelled, but his words were again, pointless as Leo kept walking with a smile. He grumbled under his breath as Usagi followed Leo with a determined face. Leo opened the door, put his katanas against a box full of comics before pulling his socks off, tossing them onto his own bed as Usagi sat on his own bed.

"So, we gonna talked about it?" Usagi asked as Leo sat on his bed and began to read a comic, Leo looked over to Usagi in confusion. "And what, pray tell, would be 'it'?" Leo asked, sitting back up. Usagi sighed and rubbed his neck. "About how you called me handsome? Back when you had your concussion?" Usagi asked, Leo choaked on his spit and cleared his throat. "O-oh, that..." Leo laughed nervously and looked to the side. "Uh, yeah. Now I remember that." Leo said and laid back again, opening his comic and began to try and read it. Usagi blinked at Leo and rose a brow. "Did you mean it?" Usagi asked, Leo looked at Usagi with a raised brow. "That I was handsome, in that lighting?" Usagi asked, turning his head to the side. Leo's grip on his comic tightened  as he looked to the side. "Uh...."

But then he stopped when both he and Usagi saw a shadow appear in the room. "What's it gonna take for you to be serious, Leo?" Raph asked with furrowed brows while leaning against a bookcase that was next to the room's doorway. Thank the pizza supreme in the sky Raph interrupted Leo and Usagi's talk. "And end up with a worry line between my eyes like you?" Leo asked as he sat up and pointed to his older brother who walked more into the room. "No, no, no, I do not want a Raph chasm." Leo said, waving his hand to show he didn't plan to do such things anytime soon. "C-chasm?!" Raph repeated and began to rub his forehead, now seeing there was a dent between his brows. "You know, valley, gorge, crevasse." Leo said smugly as he snuck around his brother's back, Usagi sighed and began to put up his katana. He was behind Raph so it was understandable if Raph didn't notice both were talking to each other.

As Leo snuck around, Raph looked at Leo with annoyance and turned to look at Leo, who now was leaning on the pipe that stood on the door's sides. "The only reason I have a chasm is I have to worry about your bozos, Usagi and Venus 24/7!" Raph said as he pointed at Leo. "Thank you for not labeling me as a 'bozo'." Usagi said as he shoved his katana under his bed and laid back onto it. "Ah, sorry Usagi, did I interrupt something?" Raph asked worried. Usagi grabbed a book labeled "The Call to the Wild" and began to read it. "Nope, what you need to say is more important, go ahead." Usagi said, not looking up from his book. He knew well and was very much aware that what Raph was going to say was something Leo really did need to get through his thick skull. But then again, Leo is Leo.
