## Script

Dr. Falco: Darn it! Another failed attempt at creating the psychic neuro-chemical. What am I missing?!
He apparently succeeds, but some of lab rats (that he's been experimenting on/with) then chew through some power lines hanging near the ceiling and the lab subsequently catches on fire.
Dr. Falco: (screams) It burns!

Adam Taurus: Oh Great Now We're Going Through Dark Pupertiy

Hawk Moth: Dont Sweat It Adam At Least To Get The Faiz Driver

Thanks to his neuro-chemical, he is able to telepathically communicate with the rats and survive.

### Lair

(Seen In The Anime Opening As It Shows The Episode Title Episode 13: The Rat King)

#### Dojo

Leonardo: OK there's the plan: Donnie, you're gonna strike first.

Donatello: No wait. You want me to come at Splinter? I'll get pummeled!

Raphael: Well, getting pummeled is your speciality.

Donnie: Hey!

Me/Kamen Rider Faiz: Ok Here's What We're Gonna Do I'll Henshin Sonic You Tornado Him Tails You Tail Him Knuckles You Punch Him Zakuro You Whip Him Ladybug You Yoyo Him Cat Noir You Staff Him

Flareon: Being honest.

Leonardo: Trust me. It's all in my plan to catch Splinter off guard.

Michelangelo: Don't take this the wrong way Leo, but against Splinter, your plans always get our butts whipped.

Leonardo: OK new thought: Mikey, you attack.

Michelangelo: He took it the wrong way.

Jolteon: Totally dude.

Raphael: Enough talk! Let's do this!
At first, Splinter manages to dodge all of their attacks and evade them Ladybug Yoyo's Him Cat Noir Staff's Him Zakuro Whips Him Sonic And Tails Creates A Tornado Surrounding Him And Knuckles Uses His Punches, but then Leo (who is the very last one standing) finally manages to strike Splinter in the face, but hesitates (which Splinter points out to him afterward), and is once again defeated.
Ninetales: You seem to hesitate, Leonardo.

Me/Kamen Rider Faiz: Henshin! (Inserts Phone Into The Driver) Faiz Phone: Complete! (I Turn Into Faiz) (Then Punches Splinter But Splinter Evades It)

Leo: Sorry. (stands up) Guess seeing you get hurt cause me to hesitate.

Splinter: You shouldn't hesitate because you harmed me. As your Sensei, you must learn not to hesitate and go all-out. That's one of the most important things you will learn.

Ninetales: And this training is over for now.

Tails: Aw Man

Sonic: Dont Worry Tails We'll Beat Him

Knuckles: Yeah Besides Im Hungry

Mao Yin: Another point for Sensei. No points for us.

Josephine: He's so good at this!

Maddie: Totally! Okay I have something to say and you better hear me out. Maybe we don't need our dad to teach us anymore.

Pimiko: Don't be stupid! Of course we need him!

Mao Yin: For what?! He had taught us everything we need t know about Ninjutsu!

Jonah: Not everything. What about the Ancient Arts of Ninjutsu.

Alexander: Like healing?

Jonah: Yes. And many other things. We still need to learn about ourselves in a spiritual way. That's the one thing Sensei had didn't taught us.

Pimiko: Trust me. Our dad is very important as much as we need our mom. You catch my drift?

Leo: Think so. Maybe. Kinda. Yes.

### Meanwhile

A girl named Moris was sleeping soundly until something rattling woke her up. She sits up to find her pet rat Derpy's cage is opened and saw her running to the door.

Moris: Huh? Derpy? (rubs her eyes) Derpy, where are you going? (gets out of bed and grabs her anklet) BB, I need your help.

(refers to as BB) Bree: (yawns) What's going on, Moris?

Moris: Derpy's running away. We have to leave and capture him.

BB: That's horrible!

Moris: (as she leaves her room and grabs her jacket) I know. We have to follow him.

BB: Okay! But shouldn't you be wearing clothes? It's a bit chilly and...

Moris: No time. Leave now. In a hurry.

BB: Okay...

Moris and BB leaves the house and follows Derpy to the nearest manhole.

Moris: Oh great. A manhole. (struggles to move it)

Rattata: Any ideas?!

Moris: Hm... (snaps her finger) A crowbar should do the trick. (looks around) Found one. (picks it up and puts it under the manhole cover) One... Two... Three. (pulls on it until it pops out) We got in.

They go down to the sewers. (as Moris, you navigate around the sewers)

BB: (shushes) There's someone here.

Rattata: And there's Derpy.

Moris: Along with thousands of rats. What's going on?

Dr. Falco: My brethren, so glad you have come here to gather. I am the Rat King You Must Be Adam Taurus And Hawk Moth and you will serve under my order! The humans have treated you with such disrespect and violence. But not anymore! We will take the city as ours and claim as our own! Take down all the humans who have wronged you and go spread chaos!

Adam Taurus: I Like It

Hawk Moth: So Do I Let's Do It

Dr Falco: Yes Let's Get To It Dont Want Those Heroes To Mess Up Our Plans

[TOGETHER LAUGH EVILY]

Moris: (gasps)

BB: He wants to take over New York?

Rattata: He's nuts.

So, as planned, the rats quickly start to invade the city, causing huge panic and city-wide havoc.

Moris: I can hear the screams of the people. We have to stop this.

BB: I agree. We won't let him take over New York without a fight. We should head back to the surface and transform.

Moris quickly heads back to the surface and hides behind some boxes.

Moris: BB, go to the shadows. (transforms)

(once BB gets into the Miraculous, white spots appeared around it. Ribbon appeared and wraps around her body to create her superhero outfit. {she wears a gray hoodie jacket that is completely unzipped with a white sleeveless shirt underneath it. Moris also wears gray shorts, a pink belt to represent a rat's tail, rat ears, gray mask with a small pink rat nose, gray flats, and cheese-shaped earrings.} She strikes a pose with her hands behind her back)

Rat Tail: Rat Tail is here to save the day! (climbs to the rooftops)

### Bus

Gwenn (inspired by: **https://earthyrainbowkitty.deviantart.com/art/MH-Valarie-Argenta-717652712**): So this is New York over there?

His partner, Sentoki, begins using sign language.

Sentoki: (using sign language) {Yeah. This is my home. I've lived here before leaving for my gymnastic tournaments. I can't wait to see my family. Especially my father.}

Gwenn: (looks outside) Uh... Is your dad a rat?

Sentoki: {How did you know?}

She points outside to see thousands of rats running along the street.

Sentoki: : {That's weird. Rats don't usually come out during the day. They're mostly active at night.}

Gwenn: Well whatever it is it can't good! We should head to those rooftops!

Sen nodded. She opened the window and gets on top of the bus before jumping to a rooftop.

Sentoki: {This is crazy! What's happening here?! (to Gwenn) Gwenn, we have to have my siblings. They must be here somewhere.}

Gwenn: Right Sen! Let's go!

### April

April and Mira are now hanging onto the telephone pole.

Mira: This is not what I expected!

April: I have to call someone.

Mira: Who?!

### Lair

#### Donnie's Lab

Gecc: Yo Don! Your girlfriend's calling!

Donnie: (picks up) And she's not my girlfriend. Hello?

April: Donnie, we have a pest problem!

Rockruff: Rats are covering the city!

Donnie: Rats?!

[SPLINTER SCREAMING]

Donnie: Sensei! (runs to the dojo but seen that his brothers and sisters are checking on Splinter) Okay April. We're on our way. (runs out of the Lair)

### Outside

#### Rooftop

Donnie: Guys!

Me/Kamen Rider Faiz: What Is It?

Freya: There you are, Donnie! Where's everyone else?!

Donnie: They're coming. But what's going on?

Mikoto: We have a rat problem. Rats are covering New York. (her hand under her chin) This is very peculiar. Rats are more active at night then day.

Chloe M.: So I'm gonna assume that someone must be controlling the rats with some kind of trance!

Mikoto: Plausible. This is not normal rat behavior at all.

???: Tell me about it. I sense a dark presence among these rats.

Mutsumi: And you are?

Gundham: Kehehe, would you like to know my name? Others may see your courage as recklessness... However...I welcome it. In honor of your courage, I shall reveal to you my name. May you never forget is as long as you live! You may call me...Gundham Tanaka! Remember it well, for it is the name that will one day rule this world!

Chloe M.: Gundham Tanaka? That's a strange name.

Gundham: Silence! Don't you dare mock my name, mortal!

Chloe M.: Whateva.

Ritsu: Let's not start a fight. We need to do something about the rats.

Gundham: Of course. I sensed a dark presence among them. A mastermind who have made the rats his faithful servants!

Aello: But who will control these poor innocent rats?!

April screams in the distance.

April: Guys! Help us! Please!

Donnie: Hold on April! (throws a rope and catches her as she loses her grip) Gotcha! You okay?

April: Yeah I'm fine. Thanks D.

Donnie: Of course! You can call me anytime you're in danger!

April: Donnie, we need to leave!

Donnie: Oh right! Hold on as well, miss!

Me/Kamen Rider Faiz: Evreybody Follow Me Can You Guys Take Care Of The Pole?

Mira: Uh... Sure thing! (holds onto his back/shell)

Sputnik: I got this! Psychic!

Lucario: I'll Help Ya Buddy Aura Sphere!

They levitates the three to the rooftop.

Cat Noir: Now To Get Rid Of The Rats (Throws Staffs At Rats)

Mira: Thank you for saving us! I thought we would be rat food!

Donnie: No problem!

Soon the other arrive as well.

Leo: Sorry we're late. Sensei was acting weird.

Zakuro Fujiwara: Try Explaning That To The Tabloids

Blake Belladonna: And Why's Adam Working With Him?

Leo: I Dont Know Blake For Some Reason There After Tyler

Chloe M.: He was? Hm... That's interesting.

Vaporeon: What do you mean?

Shiny Zorua: Did he started to act weird the same time when the rats started to scattered around New York?

Flareon: And why would you ask us that?

Shiny Zorua: Must be a connection! (chuckles)

Flareon: What *kind* of connection?

Lucario: A Ghost Connection.

Shiny Zorua: Find out for yourself!

Flareon: Jeez, thanks for answering the question...

Ritsu: But that would mean my mom and Splinter are both in danger!

Lucy: We have to go back and make sure they don't get controlled by whoever it is!

Me/Kamen Rider Faiz: Let's Go

Akame: Right. We must hurry.

Sonic: Right Let's Go.

Ladybug: Right We Better Head Back Hang On

Ladybug was behind them to the Lair.

### Lair

#### Dojo

Splinter is fast asleep, but The Rat King Adam Taurus And Hawk Moth has actually managed to get inside of his mind with hostile intentions.

Rat King: You have been through a lot. You lost everything you have: your family slain by your enemy who you used to call a friend. You got mutated into the rat you are. And your rat instincts... Be your inner-rat.

Adam Taurus: Yeah And Get Rid Of Blake Sonic And The Brat

Hawk Moth: And Ladybug And Cat Noir

Splinter: I refused! I would never join you Guys! Never!

Mikey pokes him several times just to make sure he's okay.

Lucy: Mikey, stop poking him! He's waking up!

Mikey: That's good. You okay, Sensei?

Splinter: I'm alright. But someone is trying to control me. And that someone is known as the Rat King Adam Taurus And Hawk Moth. He will not stop until he gets control of the city and my mind.

Tsubaki: And mine as well. We both need to be careful and shouldn't let him control us.

Ritsu: We brought here in case.

Ninetales: And someone else is here as well.

They all looked to see Sentoki.

Leo: How did she get here?!

Donnie: That doesn't matter. We have to go and find this Rat King Adam Taurus And Hawk Moth before anything else bad happens! You wanna tag along?'

Me/Kamen Rider Faiz: We'll Take The Auto Vajin Let's Go!

She nodded.

Rin: Okay! Then let's get going!

We Rode The Autovajin To The Rat King's Hide Out

### Sewers

(you navigate around the sewers)

Leone: I found a junction!

Carla: Good job, Leone! This should lead us to the Rat King Adam Taurus And Hawk Moth!

Happy: Aye!

Rin didn't follow them.

Raph: Rin, what's wrong?

Rin: It's dangerous to be here. I think something big is coming.

Flareon: Like what?!

Lucario: A Vampire Monster

Me/Kamen Rider Faiz: Yeah Buddy A Vampire Monster.

Panther Lily: Like that!

They begin to run away from a swarm of rats.

Lucy: This isn't my day! I hate it!

Erza: We need to find a place to hide!

Me/Kamen Rider Faiz: Guys Over Here I Found A Place To Hide

Lucy: Like what?!

Ladybug: Like Ty's House

Lucy: Tyler Live's Here? Huh Who Knew.

But the rats stopped chasing. The group turned to see Moris.

Moris: It's alright. You don't have to chase these people. Now I want all of you except Derpy to turn around and go back to where you came from.

The rats listened to her and turned away from our heroes except for her pet rat who climbed to her shoulders.

Moris: I miss you, little buddy. I was really worried sick.

Leo: You are?

Moris: Moris Luna Lou. You must be the Turtles everyone at the T-Blog was talking about.

Alya: I knew my blog would become famous! Everyone *loves* heroes in action! Especially ninja heroes!

Moris: Don't worry. I already knew you were actually mutants and not people in costume. I have played many video games to distinguish the difference between the real thing and a fake one. You all look too realistic to be people in costume.

Mikey: You play video games?! So do I!

Moris: Cool.

Raph: Wait, why are you so calm around us? We're mutant turtles or crying out loud! You should be screaming or freaking out or *something*!

Moris: Naw... I don't scream much.

Flareon: You don't?!

Moris: The only time I scream is when I play horror survival games but that's all. Now follow me. I know where Rat King is.

Me/Kamen Rider Faiz: I Dont Know Where Adam Is With Hawkmoth

Leone: You do?!

Me/Kamen Rider Faiz: Yep

Raph: Smart Kid

Moris: Yeah. I found his place after chasing around Derpy. So I'll take you there as soon as possible.

Happy: Aye! Follow the Gamer! What's a Gamer?

Mikey: Someone who enjoys playing video games!

Happy: Oh~! Now I understand!

### Lair

#### Living Room

Gundham: The Rat King will control them at any time. We must be careful or we would be its next dinner.

April: Don't say that! I know Splinter and Tsubaki won't get controlled by the Rat King!

Gundham: True that they can control their inner-rat. But how long would they do it? *That* is the question.

Rockruff: Doesn't matter! They can't be controlled by anyone! Especially by that Rat King! I know they won't!

Gundham: You are quite confident by this. Don't get *too* confident. There are consequences for those who are extremely confident.

April: You'll see! They'll be just fine as long as they don't listen to Rat King And His Partners!

Gundham: If you say so, mortal.

### Turtles

Moris: This is the place.

Everyone: Whoa...

Boa: It's humongous.

Lucy: Never thought he could live here.

???: Precisely! (Rat King appeared) Remember me?!

Donnie: Dr. Falco?!

Me/Kamen Rider Faiz: ADAM! Ladybug And Cat Noir: HAWK MOTH!

Rat King: I am Rat King now.

Adam Taurus: Right Here Kid Did Ya Miss Me?

Hawk Moth: I've Waited For You Ladybug And Cat Noir

Mikey: You named yourself that?! So unfair! I was gonna call you Verminator!

Cat Noir: Really That Was Hillarious

Ladybug: Not Funny Cat Noir

Jonah: Not the time to do names.

Mao Yin: We have to stop this madman!

Rat King: Try and stop me. My brethren will turn you into rat food. Attack!

Adam Taurus: So Will My Minions Get Em Boys (Snaps Fingers)

Hawk Moth: So Will My Ophronoches Sick Em Boys (Snaps Fingers)

Rin: Here they come!

(in this boss battle, We have to defeat Rat King Adam Taurus And Hawk Moth along with his rat army While We Battle The White Fang And The Ophronoches)

Lucario: Let's Do This Together

But suddenly, Splinter and Tsubaki appeared.

Ritsu: Oh no. Mom!

Rat King: I knew they would come and save me.

Adam Taurus: Yep They Did

Ritsu: You bastard! I want my mom back!

Rat King: Attack them!

Jonah: We don't have much of a choice.

Me/Kamen Rider Faiz: Henshin! (I Insert The Phone Into The Faiz Driver) Faiz Driver: Complete!

(I Turned Into Faiz)

Me/Kamen Rider Faiz: All Right Adam Time To Pay

(I Fight Adam Taurus)

Mao Yin: We just have to fight our dad and Tsubaki.

Vulpix: Right.

(now you have to defeat Splinter and Tsubaki)

Lina: We need to restrain him!

Gundham: I see... So that's where they were.

April: Sorry guys! We weren't able to stop them from going.

Mira: Huh?

Rat King: Splinter, Tsubaki, destroy all of them! Make sure they suffer!

Thalia: Mom, don't do what he says!

Merope: Snap out of it!

Maia: Don't do this!

Mira steps in.

Mira: How could you do this! You're making everyone miserable with your rat movement!

Rat King recognizes her and was in complete shock.

Rat King: Mira?

Adam Taurus: Seriously Is She Always Like This?

Hawk Moth: Unfortinately Yes Adam Let's Let Rat King Handle This We'll Get Them Anothertime.

Adam Taurus: All Right We're Outta Here Horror Movie You In?

Hawk Moth: Yep Later Rat King. (Teleports)

Rat King: Hey Wait Oh Well I'll Have To Handle Them Myself

Me/Kamen Rider Faiz: Uhh I Hate When That Happens

Mira (after climbing up to him): That's right! The one and only, Victor! I can't believe you would do something like this. Especially controlling their parents. For what? For revenge?

Rat King: You won't stop me, Mira! I will take over New York and make these humans my slaves for my rat brethren!

Me/Kamen Rider Faiz: Oh Yeah Creep? Try A Little Taste Of This! (Inserts Memory Into Faiz Knuckle)

Faiz Phone: Ready! (Then I Press The Enter Button On My Faiz Phone)

Faiz Phone: Exceed Charge!

Out of anger, I Use My Faiz Knuckle And punches him with a right hook and he was sent flying to a wall. That causes Splinter and Tsubaki to snap out of his control.

And Zakuro Uses Her Whip To Trap Him

Mira: I can stop you this way. You may have been my husband from long ago but now you are my enemy. I won't let you enslave everyone that wronged you. Revenge isn't the way. Now you better get going or it'll be another mean right hook from me! You got that, Victor?!

Rat King: Yes My Daughter I Understand

Without saying a word, he stands up and leaves.

Mira: And don't do this again! (sighs)

### Lair

April: I can't believe that Falco is my uncle.

Mira: Well uncle once removed to be exact. I'm sorry I kept this secret from you.

Rusty: It's alright! Besides, that was awesome!

Leone: Totally! Where's Leo?

Josephine: At the dojo. Must be talking to father.

#### Dojo

Leo: Father, you feeling okay?

Splinter: Yes. I am okay. Quill is calming me down for a bit. Is there anything you need?

Vaporeon: We want to say that one day Leo want to be a greater Martial Artist than you.

Splinter: I see. I have taught you and your siblings everything you need to know. (grabs Leo's arm and throws him against the wall) But not everything I taught you.

Leo: (groans) Great to see you back, Sensei.

Splinter: Same to myself.

Me/Kamen Rider Faiz: Together We Did It Guys (Fist Bump)

Ladybug: We'll We Gotta Go See Ya (Teleports)

Zakuro Fujiwara: Goodbye Ladybug And Cat Noir (Cries)

Me/Kamen Rider Faiz: Hey Dont Get So Down Zakuro We'll See Em Sometime You Know
