RPG picking up where season 4 left off!

[Toonami Tom]

Leonardo wondered if Graysight could read his mind. He watched as they left the room. He took a seat on the mat and closed his eyes. He began his meditation.

**********
At the lair of the Foot Mystics the 'true' Shredder had a map of Japan unscrolled. He was begining to make his battle plans. The Mystics were still in disbelief that Shredder had commanded the destruction of the mystic of fire. Afterall, it was because of the mystics that he was even standing their looking at the map right now. The water Mystic then said to Shredder "Master, it was our goal that after your resurrection that we were to merg with you into one ultimate being." Shredder stopped looking at his map for a moment and responded by saying "Yes, this would further confirm my soon inevitable victory over this planet. Let this fussion begin." The 4 Mystics then started glowing, suddenly they were all transformed into orbs of energy. These orbs of energy then floated to Shredder, where they were absorbed by him. A force of energy now spiraled around him. When this vortex finished, Shredder was now more powerful than ever.

A microscopic cell from the Mystic of fire floated in the air, unseen. "Shredder actually thinks I am destroyed...... Heh..... I will have my revenge upon him."

[Jade Green]

As soon as Randi and Ana were out of Leonardo's hearing range, she spoke. "He thinks this place 'wonderful'... he's wrong. This temple is a place of war. That's what we're being trained for, isn't it?" She frowned, her tone sounding solumn. "I know war, and war is far from 'wonderful'..."

[Toonami Tom]

The silver Tribunal was walking around the temple when he overheard Randi talking to Ana. He approached them. "Yes, unfortunately there will probably be a war soon. The evil Mystics from the New York branch of the Foot Clan are trying to bring the original Oroku Saki back from the dead. If they accomplish this, we will have no other choice than to stop them through a major battle. Randi, Ana, if there is a war it will be improtant that you fight along side us. Your involvment could be the difference between victory and defeat."

[Jade Green]

"Master Silver.... you tell me things I already know. You know already that I will fight along side you to stop this force." Randi crossed her arms, "I gave you my word the first day I came here and you told me what was happening. My comment still stands, this is a place of war... that is what we are preparing for. Even with good intentions, war is ugly... many of us might... will die."

[-Savannah-]

"As I did too, upon my honor did I give my world of loyalty to you Master Silver, as well as the rest of the Tribunal." she paused, turning to Randi, her face serious, "It's true that war holds nothing but hatred for opposing sides, but, I'd rather die with honor, and for the cause of a brighter outcome."

Ana then turned to Master Silver. "I stay faithful only towards the Tribunal, though we need to gather others that have the same intentions. The destruction of our foes must be deilvered." she paused once more, before continuing, her voice a tad bit softer than before, "For the sake of our future, and for the world that we so cherish, we shall."

[Toonami Tom]

Before the silver tribunal could reply to Randi and Ana he heard a huge explosion. The silver tribunal didn't move, he feared for the worst. He cautiously walked a few feet to the balcony area. He then saw what had exploded. The entrance to the temple and most of the front wall had been blown up. The smoke was starting to clear. Now standing inside the temple was the 'true' Shredder.

"Oh no! It has already begun!" the silver Tribunal announced. "We didn't think it would happen so fast. Now all hope may be lost." he said to himself. The other tribunals were off in the distance training students. They stopped their training and approached the Shredder. They stayed back from him about 10 feet.

"I come here alone, without my army" Shredder began saying. "You have the power to prevent the deaths of everyone in this temple, it is just a matter if you will give me what I want." The silver tribunal walked down the stairs. He then took a stand next to the other tribunal members. The blue tribunal then spoke to Shredder saying "And what is it that you want?" Shredder than told them, saying "I want to takeover this temple for my own. I also want everyone in this temple to join me. I will be their new master, they will obey me."

The Tribunals were in shock. The blue tribunal tellepathically told his brothers standing next to him "~We have no choice but to give in.... for now..... later we will have a revolution and overthrow Shredder.~" The other Tribunals were silent. Then they all responded to blue saying "~At this time, it is all we can do.~"

"Shredder, we will let you have what you want......" the blue tribunal told him.

[Jade Green]

Randi's guard immediatly went up, as she hurried with Master Silver towards the sound of the explosion. There, she saw the clay corpse of a man in his metal armor. He was demanding that they join him, and to Randi's distraught, the Tribunals agreed! Quickly, Randi wondered what she could do. No, she knew what she could do! Her mind spread out to find Welanna, Sabor, and Ana and implanted subliminal message deep with in thier minds. Secret passage, under Shinto Shrine. Take out the small statue to open. It was a bit of knowledge she accidently gleemed from one of the priests of the temple when she first came here. She had kept the information secret, knowing it would be useful in case of an emergency. This was an emergency.

The Subliminal message was programed to 'activate' when needed. This meant, if -- or rather, when -- The 'true' Shredder went back on his promise the three knew of a safe exit and could hopefully save the four ninja turtles and that frog. While she sent the message, she glared through her mirrored shades at the monstrosity before her. "Master Shredder." Said she, stepping forwards to bow at the knee before him. "It will be an honor to serve you."

She was going to be hated for this, the others wouldn't understand what she planned. Never mind them, if it worked then it would all be over soon.

[Toonami Tom]

Shredder turned his attention to this turtle that spoke to him. "Ah, the first warrior brave enough to speak to me. You are very wise to join me, turtle. You will live now. What is your name?" Shredder stared at her. He could sense that she was very powerful.

The silver tribunal tellepathically told Randi "~We are going to overthrow Shredder. We can not do this at the moment, however. We made the best decision we could. I am sorry.~"

[Jade Green]

"Master, I am known as Graysight." She replied and to the tribunal it would seem as if his message went unheard or even ignored by the female turtle. She then stood and crossed her arms. ~Fool, did you really think I was loyal to you?~ She asked the Silver Tribunal. ~Your war was lost before you even began it!~

Her tone was cruel and malicious, she planned to make it very clear that she was on shredder's side. Everyone, the tribunals, the other trainees and priests were all to know this... and believe it to be so. The only way to truly fool the enemy is to fool your allies as well.

[-Savannah-]

Instead of heading to where the explosion happened, Ana headed the other way, to where Leonardo was meditating. She stood in the doorway, not bothering him, but simply making sure nothing had happened while they were away. She breathed a sigh of relief, before look out back from the way she came, looking for any intruders that might be heading their way.

Seeing nothing, though hear voices in the next room, she turned back to Leonardo wathcing over him.

[Jade Green]

ignore this

[Jade Green]

((Savannah! It was subliminal! Meaning she will not hear it... it will ARISE when NEEDED... i.e. if Shredder tries to kill them or something but Not right now.))

[Toonami Tom]

(*meaning that nobody will hear the subliminal message till later, when it is time*)

The mutant frog Bruce entered the room from a nearby archway. "Shredder! I will never join you!" He looked to the tribunals saying "Masters, I respect you all, but I will not be a pawn of the Shredder." He turned his attention back to Shredder "You don't look so powerful. Just a guy in a metal suit. What do you use it for, to make your coleslaw?" he mocked the Shredder.

Shredder was now very angry. "I have had enough of your insolent tongue, frog!" Shredder charged Bruce at full speed. Shredder attempted to slash Bruce with his claw, but it was blocked just in time by the frog's bo staff. Bruce was then kicked across the room, slamming into a nearby stone pillar. Shredder walked up to him, picking him up by his shirt. Before Shredder could strike he was hit by a jump kick from the silver tribunal. Shredder hit the ground and skid on the floor for a moment. "Get out of here now Bruce!" the silver tribunal told him. Bruce ran out the front entrance that was still wide open from where Shredder had blew it up.

Shredder got up saying "I thought you had joined me, Silver. I hope the life of that frog was worth your own. Because now.... You die!" Shredder put his hands together and powered-up a ball of energy. He then fired the blast at the silver tribunal. Silver was struck by this attack and there was a large explosion where he was standing. There were now only 3 Tribunal members left.

"This idiot was killed becasue he opposed me! Anyone else who does the same will suffer this fate! Graysight, that frog went out the front door. Hunt him down and destroy him!"

[Lady Venus]

Sabor Khan:

*Did what Master Silver told him to do and started doing his dagger katas.*

[Toonami Tom]

Leonardo was no longer meditating. He was very disturbed. He stood up and wondered what he should do. It would be a failed effort to attack Shredder. He then saw Ana enter the room where he had been meditating. "What do you think we should do Ana? Where is Graysight?"

**********
"I am going to go to the dojo Master Shredder." the blue tribunal said. "That is fine with me. You had just better not try anything." Shredder told him. Blue then walked to the dojo where Sabor was training. Once inside he approached Sabor saying "Shredder has taken over the temple. Do not attack him, he is too powerful. We will wait for the right time to start our revolution against him." Blue stayed in the dojo with Sabor. A sword materialized in his hands. He started practicing his sword slashes.

[Jade Green]

"As you wish." Randi gave a graceful bow, turned, and walked out the front gate. Immediatly, her mind expanded out in search of the Ninja Frog named Bruce. Meanwhile, she began to think of every possible move. Then, she had an idea; but first, she had to find Bruce.

(Ooc: Sorry...read it wrong. I'll edit.)

[-Savannah-]

She put up a hand, motioning him to be quiet. "We can do nothing for the moment, just be silent. Randi, er...Graysight is currently dealing with the so-called intruder. We will escape when I am sure the danger has passed. We shall stay hidden until then." she replied, her voice barely audible, but loud enough to catch.

She crept over to the candles, blowing them out, the room instantly becoming dark. Ana grabbed Leonardo by the arm and pulled him into a shadowed spot, making sure they were "invisible" to the naked eye.

[Toonami Tom]

Leonardo was worried for Randi, Raph, Don, and Mikey's safety. He whispered to Ana saying to her "We need to find a way out of here. If we can find a safe place, it might be a good idea for you to begin my training of illusions. It's up to you, whatever you think we should do."

**********
Outside the temple Bruce was hiding in some tall trees thinking of what to do. He was far away from the temple, but he could still see it in the distance. He saw someone exit the temple. It was the female turtle he had seen at the Shinto Shrine. "She must be Shredder's 'right hand' now. I will have to do something about her."

[-Savannah-]

"There's no time," she whispered through clenched teeth, "Illusions is extremely diffucult to learn. I'll have to teach you most of the basics when we find a safe place to escape to." She looked out of the room once more, seeing nothing that acted like an immediant threat.

"Right now, our time is limited, though it appears that there will be no easy escape. Timing is the key right now." She leaned back into the room, looked at Leonardo through serious eyes. Ana sighed, exasperated, before reaching into a small leather bag strapped onto her skirt. There, she pulled out a faintly-glowing, bright blue medallion, with Japanese symbols scribbled upon it.

"This..." she whispered, palcing it around his neck, "will serfice for now. It allows you to easily create simpler, less-realistic illusions like fire or water. All you need to do is imagine what you want to create, and concentrate of it, concentrate hard. It was made specifically for you, based on your DNA and such, so nothing can turn it against you. However, these illusions, as I said before, are very much more low-key then the ones I create, so I do not know how much assistance it will give you. Use it well."

With that, she became eerily silent, leaning against the wall, looking out through the doorway.
