Episodes

Not an episode guide, because I may choose to rearrange the order of the episodes. And of course, some of these might not end up actually being written. But these are the ideas of what's potentially in store. This will be updated when new ideas present themselves, and also when stories are finished and ready to be linked. Occasional ideas are based on episodes of Darkwing Duck and other equally silly, fun shows or are suggested by friends, while most are my own concepts from beginning to end.

Pilot: "Exit the Fly." Baxter the Fly is terrorizing the Turtles with a rebuilt retro-mutagen ray gun when he ends up blasting himself and finally rendering himself human again. The Turtles save him when he plummets out of the sky and discover that he is in shock from the double trauma of the cross-fusion and being pulled apart from the fly. They and Splinter decide to treat him since they know best how to deal with mutants, and since they hope that perhaps handling him with kindness will soothe the instability he fell prey to even before the cross-fusion. As Baxter recovers, his brother Barney reappears on the scene and joins forces with Shredder.
