AUTHOR'S NOTE: This story takes place about thirty-two years after the events of "The Summer I was Young Again" and is written entirely in script form.

In the basement of The Second Time Around store 4Kids Donatello sits quietly at his computer with 4Kids Michelangelo's pet cat Klunk sitting in his lap.

4KIDS RAPH: "What're you up to there, brainiac?"
4KIDS DON: (petting Klunk) "Oh, not much. I just got off the tran-dimensional communicator with my counterparts from Dimensions E and J. Our timelines have finally synched up properly. It's the exact same date and time in all three worlds, as well as the Smallville and Teen Titans worlds that Dimension J is also connected to."
4KIDS RAPH: (sarcastically) "Whoop de doo! Sorry I asked. Anyway, I just got off the phone with April and Casey at the farmhouse. They said little Shadow misses us and wants us to come visit soon!"
4KIDS DON: "Aw, that's nice. Oh hey Raph, could you do me a big favor and check on Professor Honeycutt? I let him recharge his new body in the living room."
4KIDS RAPH: "Sure thing, Don. Mind if I take Klunk upstairs with me? I wanna show him this new toy I got him."
4KIDS DON: "Knock yourself out!"

4Kids Raphael heads back upstairs and makes his way to the living room expecting to see their good old friend the Fugitoid sitting comfortably on a chair.

4KIDS RAPH: "Hey Honeycutt, Don wanted me to check on- what the shell?!"
4KIDS HONEYCUTT: "R-R-Raphael... h-help me."

4Kids Raphael is beyond shocked to see Fugitoid in the clutches of a gross looking blue and purple creature.

4KIDS RAPH: "I don't know who or what the shell you are, but you'd better get away from him now or else!!!"
WYRM: "Or else what, green jeans?! The Ninja Turtles of my reality could barely handle the likes of me."

4Kids Raphael puts Klunk down and whips out his sais, only for the creature to transform them into salad tongs.

4KIDS RAPH: "Oh great, more dimension hopping, reality bending weirdos!"

4Kids Raphael lunges at Wyrm, only to be encased in a strange energy bubble. A small white robot head that looks strikingly similar to 4Kids Honeycutt's original robot Sal pops up atop Wyrm's shoulder.

NICKELODEON HONEYCUTT: "Quit stalling, Wyrm, and connect me to my counterpart already! I must have my revenge on - BEEP - the Turtles!!!"
WYRM: "Okay, okay!"
4KIDS DON: "What's all the commotion up here?!"

4Kids Donatello comes upstairs just in time to witness 4Kids Honeycutt being fused with Nickelodeon Honeycutt.

HONEYCUTT PRIME: "Success! I have merged with my counterpart! Now I can get even with those reptilian brats!"
WYRM: "Lets not forget the deal we made. You promised that you would free me!"

Honeycutt Prime takes out a hyper cube that pulls Wyrm into it, causing the bubble to disappear, freeing 4Kids Raphael.

HONEYCUTT PRIME: (ruthlessly) "Deal's off, asshole!"

4Kids Donatello runs up to Honeycutt Prime, attempting to talk to him, only to be thrown across the room, crashing into an old television set. Honeycutt Prime leaves through an open window, while 4Kids Raphael runs up to 4Kids Donatello, helping him back to his feet.

4KIDS RAPH: "You okay, bro?"
4KIDS DON: "I've been through worse!"
4KIDS RAPH: "Any idea where he might be heading?"
4KIDS DON: "Most likely O'Neil Tech to use the portal."

That very moment, 4Kids Michelangelo and 4Kids Leonardo enter the living room.

4KIDS MIKEY: "Hey bros, We're back from patrolling with the Justice Force."
4KIDS LEO: "You missed one shell of a fight with... um, what happened here?"
4KIDS RAPH: "You wouldn't believe me if I told you, Leo."
4KIDS DON: "I'll explain on the way to O'Neil Tech. We've gotta stop Fugitoid!!!"
4KIDS MIKEY: "Aw, but I was all set to sit around and play video games!"

Nickelodeon CGI TMNT Earth (Dimension F); New York City, NY - May 4TH, 2024

Nickelodeon April is relaxing in the tub at her apartment, when there's a knock at the door.

NICK APRIL: (Annoyed) "Oh, can't a girl get a stinking hour and a half to herself?!"

Nickelodeon April gets out of the tub and hastily dries off and puts on a yellow robe before exiting the bathroom.

ROOK: "April, are you there? It's me!"
NICK APRIL: "Irma... I-I Mean Rook! What're you doing here?"

Nickelodeon April unlocks the door and lets her Utrom friend inside.

ROOK: (Short of breath) "Thanks. I actually meant to open a portal inside the apartment, but some interference bumped my trajectory off by several blocks, so I had to run."
NICK APRIL: "Well, do you mind if I got dressed and cleaned up my bathroom."
ROOK: "Oh sure, not a problem."

Before Nickelodeon April has the chance to run to her bedroom, Honeycutt Prime barges in and attacks Rook, mangling her robotic Irma head in the process.

NICK APRIL: (Screams.) "P-P-Professor Honeycutt?!"
HONEYCUTT PRIME: "In the flesh... as it were! I've come back to exact my ru-ru-ru-revenge on you and those repulsive Turtles! You will all pay for your disrespect!"

Honeycutt Prime grabs Nickelodeon April by the back of her robe, which she manages to slip out of and runs bare naked into her bedroom. She grabs her kunoichi jumpsuit, tessen and tantō blade and manages to escape through the window, frantically attempting to put on her jumpsuit as she heads down the fire escape.

HONEYCUTT PRIME: "You can't hide from me, O'N-N-Neil! Oh, darn this new body is slow. It's a w-w-wonder I made it back to this dimension at all!"

Nickelodeon April manages to get fully dressed as she gets to street level, only to be startled by somebody poking at her near the alleyway behind her apartment. She's quickly relieved to see the person poking her is 4Kids Michelangelo, accompanied by the other 4Kids Ninja Turtles.

4KIDS RAPH: "Sorry, we didn't mean to scare you... April. Boy this dimension hopping really plays heck with your head!"
NICK APRIL: "What the heck are you guys doing here?"
4KIDS DON: "We're here to stop Honeycutt Prime."
NICK APRIL: "Honeycutt Prime?"
4KIDS LEO: "Somehow your Fugitoid made his way to our reality and merged with our Fugitoid!"
NICK APRIL: "That doesn't even sound possible!"
4KIDS DON: "Impossible or not, it happened."
HONEYCUTT PRIME: "Indeed it did, fools! Now you'll all pay!"
4KIDS MIKEY: "Aw man. What do we do now? I don't wanna fight him!"
4KIDS LEO: (Draws his swords.) "We don't have much of a choice, Michelangelo."

Honeycutt Prime slowly walks towards them.

4KIDS RAPH: (Brandishing his sais.) "What's he waiting for?"
4KIDS DON: "Either his motor functions are damaged, or it's possible our Honeycutt is still in there and trying to stop his counterpart from wreaking havoc!"
NICK APRIL: "Isn't there any way we can separate them?"
4KIDS DON: "If we could just manage to get him to your Turtles' lair, I can work with Donatello on reversing the merging process."
HONEYCUTT PRIME: "You pathetic mutants will do n-n-no such thing!"
4KIDS RAPH: "Bring it on, nutcase!!!"
4KIDS MIKEY: "20 years later, and Raph's still got that fire in his eyes!"

About a half hour later Nick April and the 4Kids Ninja Turtles arrive at the Nickelodeon Turtles' lair with Honeycutt Prime now with all of his limbs dismantled and removed.

4KIDS LEO: "I still can't get over how quick you managed to dismember him like that, Raph!"
4KIDS RAPH: "What can I say? I've always been great against household appliances!"
NICK LEO: "Hey, what brings you guys here?"
NICK RAPH: "Yea and why aren't our Pennsylvania Pals with you?" (Chuckles.)
NICK LEO: "Don't tell me those guys are in trouble again!"
NICK APRIL: "Actually this has absolutely nothing to do with Dimension J. Remember Zayton Honeycutt?"
NICK MIKEY: "Professor Honeycutt? Man, we haven't heard that name in forever!"
4KIDS MIKEY: "Well, somehow your Honeycutt made his way to our world and hacked our Honeycutt! See?"

4Kids Michelangelo plops Honeycutt Prime's torso on the couch right between Nickelodeon Leonardo and Nickelodeon Raphael.

NICK RAPH: (Nervously) "Hey, Fugitoid. Uh, long time no see."
HONEYCUTT PRIME: (Scowls angrily) "I would've taken me far longer had it not been for that insipid Wyrm!"
NICK LEO: "A what?"
4KIDS RAPH: "Yea, there was this weird looking creature who went by the name Wyrm. He seemed to have dealt with you guys before."
NICK DON: "Huh, I don't remember encountering any alien worm."
HONEYCUTT PRIME: "Of course you don't, because he granted Casey's wish that we had never encountered him, thus reversing time and erasing your memories. However the computer portion of my mind has retained that memory and it took me several years drifting through space to figure out a way to find him. It was no easy feat considering all that remained of me was my head!"
NICK MIKEY: "Dude, we thought you sacrificed yourself by wiping out the Triceratons!"
HONEYCUTT PRIME: "That's not how we rem-mem-member it! You thought the worst of me simply because you discovered that it was I who created the teleportal! Teleportal? No that can't be riiiii"

Honeycutt's head starts to spin wildly. Nickelodeon Leonardo and Nickelodeon Raphael jump off the couch as sparks begin flying out.

NICK RAPH: "Whoa, and I thought he had a screw loose before!"
4KIDS LEO: "He mentioned the teleportal. That was our Honeycutt's invention."
4KIDS DON: "Then I was right. The fusion hasn't fully completed!"
NICKELODEON DON: "Lets get him into my lab and run some tests! Maybe we can get them separated before they merge permanently."

Nickelodeon Donatello and his 4Kids counterpart get to work, while Nickelodeon April and the other six Turtles sit in the lair.

NICK MIKEY: "hey do you guys want to play Mazes and Mutants?"
4KIDS MIKEY: "Mazes and Mutants? I don't think we have that video game in our world."
NICK LEO: "It's not a video game. It's like a table top board game."
4KIDS LEO: "That sounds like it could be a fun way to pass the time."
NICK RAPH: "Ugh, I'd rather go hang out with-"

Just then Nickelodeon Mondo Gecko shows up

NICK MONDO GECKO: "Yo dudes!"
NICK MIKEY: "Mondo Gecko! What brings you here?"
NICK MONDO GECKO: (Sighs) "I kinda had a falling out with the Mutanimals. We were on this stealth mission for TCRI and I got a little too cocky and blew our cover. Slash and Rockwell weren't too happy with me."
NICK LEO: "Well, I'm sure they'll get over it. Sometimes you just gotta give people space."
NICK MONDO GECKO: "Yea, that's kinda what Leatherhead told me."
4KIDS MIKEY: "Oh that's right, I forgot you guys have a Leatherhead!"
4KIDS RAPH: "Mikey, our world is based more heavily on the original comics. We're lucky that we even got a Leatherhead!"
NICK MONDO GECKO: "Oh, I see you guys have got some uh... company. I-I'll just vamoose!"
NICK RAPH: "Yea, you do that!"
NICK LEO: "Oh come on, Raph! Lets be more welcoming."
NICK MIKEY: Yea, dude! We don't always get the chance to have guests... especially our other selves from different dimensions!"
NICK RAPH: (sighs) "Oh fine!"

A few hours go by and the group has gotten immersed in a game of Mazes and Mutants, when 4Kids Donatello and Nickelodeon Donatello emerge each with their own Fugitoid.

4KIDS HONEYCUTT: "I must say I am rather pleased with how well you managed to make our new bodies look exactly like our original android forms."
NICK HONEYCUTT: "Indeed. Sorry again about hijacking your mind like that, old chap."
4KIDS HONEYCUTT: "Oh it's all water under the bridge. Isn't that right Donatellos?"
4KIDS DON: "Oh of course, think nothing of it."
NICK DON: "Yea, but you really gave April a scare."

Nickelodeon Honeycutt walks over to Nickelodeon April.

NICK HONEYCUTT: "My apologies for what transpired at your apartment, Miss O'Neil."
NICK APRIL: "You're forgiven, Zayton. I'm just glad you're in your right mind again! I really should go back and clean up the mess that-" (Gasps) "Oh my gosh, I forgot about Rook!!!"
NICK DON: "Not to worry, April. I checked in with your dad. He helped Rook get herself put back together and she headed back to Dimension X."
NICK HONEYCUTT: "My, that's a relief."
4KIDS MIKEY: "Who the shell is Rook?"
NICK MIKEY: "She's that girl Utrom we saved the last time you dudes were in our dimension."
4KIDS LEO: "You know what's kind of funny? I feel like this gathering just isn't complete without the Pennsylvania Turtles and their friend Jeffrey."
4KIDS RAPH: "Gotta admit, I feel the same way. I mean sure they're not the most ninja like of us, but they do have a charm about them."
4KIDS DON: "Well, they are sort of from a simpler time."
NICK DON: "Yea, from what I gather the 1980s and 90s were a pretty interesting time in pop culture."
NICK RAPH: "Ah the heck with it! I'm up for a trip to Dimension J if you guys are!"
4KIDS HONEYCUTT: "Do these other Turtles have their own version of me as well?"
4KIDS DON: "I don't believe that they do, Professor."



Nickelodeon Michelangelo gets up and runs to the kitchen.

NICK DON: "What're you doing, Mikey?"
NICK MIKEY: (Comes back holding Ice Cream Kitty in his hands) "You know I can't go on a trip without my buddy I.C.K!"
4KIDS RAPH: (Chuckles) "If there's any constant in the multiverse, it's Michelangelo's love for both cats and food!"

A cockroach runs by, startling both 4Kids Raphael and Nickelodeon Raphael. 4Kids Leonardo and Nickelodeon Leonardo let out a laugh.

4KIDS LEO: "Same goes for how bugs freak you out, Raphael!"
