## History

### Background

It all started with a place known as the Battle Nexus which was a a nexus that connected different worlds throughout time, space, and the multiverse. The Nexus was ruled by the Ultimate Daimyo who ruled it peacefully with a powerful artifact known as the War Staff which had the power to bend time and space. Ounce every three years, the Battle Nexus would have a tournament where all the best warriors throughout time, space, and the multiverse would come together and battle each other to determine who is the greatest warrior ever who would be crowned as the Battle Nexus Champion. Splinter's master, Hamato Yoshi ounce competed in the tournament and won thus becoming it's champion. Years later, Splinter competed in the tournament as well and also won the tile of champion after defeating an evil dragon warrior named Drako. But the night after, Drago tried to get revenge on Splinter with an army of assassins but they were stopped with help from the Daimyo and a young rabbit samurai named Usagi. Drako and his assassins were then chased out of the Battle Nexus and were never seen again for many years. The Daimyo also had a son called the Ultimate Ninja but unlike his father, the Ultimate Ninja was evil and would fight only for power and glory. One day, the Ultimate Ninja traveled to Earth to fight Leonardo but he lost and was taken home by the Daimyo. Soon the Battle Nexus Tournament was coming up again and Splinter was going to compete in it. But the the Turtles followed him even though they were told to stay but were allowed to compete in the tournament anyway after they defeat some opponents in the qualifying round of the tournament. They were then greeted by the Daimyo and the Ultimate Ninja who claimed to have reformed but it was all a ruse. The Ultimate Ninja had secretly teamed up with Drako and his assassins to have their revenge on the Turtles and Splinter and take over the Battle Nexus during the tournament under the promise that Drako will be given the War Staff. During the tournament, the Turtles fought off some fierce warriors, some of them included their Triceraton friend Traximus who was looking for recruits for his rebellion against Prime Leader Zanramon, Usagi who later became a friend of Leonardo, and Usagi's rhino friend Gennosuke who was mostly in it to make money.

### The Battle

But before the tournament, Leonardo is attacked by some of Drako's assassins under secret orders from the Ultimate Ninja but Leonardo fights them off and defeats them with help from Usagi. During the tournament, Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo, and Master Splinter get through the first round but Donatello gets eliminated first. Then the next round begins with Leonardo fighting Usagi, Raphael fighting Traximus, and Michelangelo fighting Splinter who forfeits while Raphael defeats Traximus. But during the round, Leonardo is secretly poisoned by the Ultimate Ninja with a dart so he was taken to the master healer with help from Donatello and Usagi. Later, Drako's assassins attack and poison the Daimyo after the Ultimate Ninja tricked him into a trap using a fake message then the assassins take War Staff. Splinter is then framed for the attack and is sent to the dungeons where the Ultimate Ninja and Drako reveal themselves and their plan to him as well them having the War Staff. After Raphael loses to Michelangelo and hears from Traximus about Splinter allegedly attacking the Daimyo, he and Traximus work together to help him. Then the assassins try to kill the Daimyo in the healing room with Leonardo's swords to try and frame him for it but Usagi and Donatello fight them off. Later, the Ultimate Ninja declares that his father will die soon and that he will become the new Daimyo of the Battle Nexus to respect his wishes. Soon Donatello and Usagi defeated the assassins and save the Daimyo with help from a healed up Leonardo. Later, Raphael and Traximus free Splinter from the dungeons and they all go to stop Drako and the Ultimate Ninja. But just when Drako is about to steal the War Staff, the Ultimate Ninja appears and stops him. The Ultimate Ninja then double crosses Drako, takes the War Staff for himself, and tries to use it against Drako but he can't control it. Then Drako takes the War Staff and uses it just fine since he has spent years learning it. After attacking the Ultimate Ninja with the War Staff, Drako appears before the tournament declaring himself as the new Daimyo of the Battle Nexus just as Michelangelo is fighting against a warrior named Kluh during the final match. Everyone else then gathers up to the arena and when the Daimyo notices Drako with the War Staff he panics. Since the War Staff draws it's power from the heart and if it's used by someone with an evil heart it could lead to destructive results. Suddenly, the War Staff starts to rip open a dimensional rift that could destroy all of reality which causes Drako to drop it. Everyone races toward the War Staff but then they all start to get sucked up into the rift. As Raphael keeps the Staff safe with one of his Sais everyone starts clinging onto each other one by one. With Michelangelo holding onto Kluh with one of his nun chucks and Traxmius holding onto the ground with his axe with Donatello, Usagi, Leonardo, the Ultimate Ninja, and Drako holding onto each other afterwards. During the skirmish, Raphael gives Splinter the War Staff who gives it to the Daimyo to close up the rift, but as Drako and the Ultimate Ninja continue to fight each other they both end up getting sucked into the rift. The Daimyo is able close up the rift with the War Staff which saving everyone but he becomes disheartened by the lost of his son. Michelangelo then continues his fight with Kluh but then accidently knocks him out with one of his nun chucks becoming the winning of the Battle Nexus Tournament.

### Aftermath

After becoming the champion Michelangelo is given a special trophy and Splinter and the Turtles all return home. Soon afterwards, Michelangelo lets the success of being the Battle Nexus Champion go to his head and often brags about it much to the annoyance of the others. As for Drako and the Ultimate Ninja they continued to drift through the rift until they both merged together into Ultimate Drako then later end up in fifteenth century England where they became the Masked Dragon and serve as a pet for a demon sorcerer named Savanti Romero as an effort to get revenge of the Turtles by getting the Time Scepter. Another powerful artifact that could also bend time and space that Savanti was trying to steal from it's master, Lord Simultaneous who banished him to fifteenth century England. The Time Scepter is summoned by Savanti which pulled in both the Turtles and Lord Simultaneous' apprentice, Renet. Although they stopped Savanti, Ultimate Drako revealed himself and took the Time Scepter but the Renet took the Time Scepter back and used it to summon Lord Simultaneous who used it to freeze up Ultimate Drako and banish Savanti to the Cretaceous period. But Ultimate Drako broke free, stole the Time Scepter, and then escaped with it. Lord Simultenous wasn't too worried about it because he claimed the Time Scepter had a mind of it's own which would spell trouble for Ultimate Drako. Some time later, Ultimate Drako appeared in the Turtles lair and scatted them and Splinter across time and space with the Time Scepter. Michelangelo was sent to an alternate reality were the Turtles are super heroes and Master Splinter was their enemy. Raphael was sent into space where he was picked up by an off world racing team. Donatello was sent to a dark future where the Turtles had broken up and Shredder took over the world. Leonardo was sent to the world of Usagi who helped him get to the Battle Nexus so he could use the Daimyo's War Staff to save his brothers. But when they got there they found the Daimyo in a depressed state since losing his son. They then try stealing it but then are confronted by Ultimate Drako who revealed to them that Splinter was in the dungeons. Leonardo tried to use the War Staff to bring back his brothers but it didn't work then Ultimate Drako toke the War Staff. He then used both items to summon the Daimyo and Splinter so he could destroy them both but the Splinter takes the War Staff and successfully used it to bring back the other Turtles. They all fought back against Ultimate Drako until they got both the War Staff and the Time Scepter. With the power of both objects they defeated Ultimate Drako by separating him back into Drako and the Ultimate Ninja who later crumbled into dust. Lord Simultaneous then appeared, took back the Time Scepter, and used it to revive the Ultimate Ninja as a young kid to heal the Daimyo's heart and so that the Ultimate Ninja can grow up without an evil heart then he sent Splinter, the Tturtles, and Usagi back home.

Some time later, Splinter and the Turtles were visited by Kluh and his father, Ammag who requested a rematch against Michelangelo at the Battle Nexus. Although Michelangelo was hesitant, he got some training help from Leonardo and was able to defeat Kluh thus securing his title as the Battle Nexus Champion. Later, the Turtles are visited by Renet again who was completing her training as Lord Simultaneous' apprentice by using the Time Scepter but are all transported to the Cretaceous period by Savanti who wanted revenge against them and tried to steal the Time Scepter again. But they managed to defeat him and stopped him from wiping out the dinosaurs too early then they all returned back to their normal time.
