White Light : The issue opens with Bebop and Rocksteady, still trapped beneath the Foot vehicle and rubble. Suddenly, Bebop notices an odd smell... followed by a brilliant light... and we see four very alien creatures...Meanwhile, the TMNT have gotten disoriented from the blast in the previous issue. The lads head down the passageway where the rats are streaming from, as they believe it to be the direction home. As the Turtles walk, the rodents begin swarming around them. Just as the TMNT decide it's time to whack some rats, a strange being comes into view... a man dressed in tatters who calls himself the Rat King!Leo answers the Rat King's questions and the murky monarch tells the TMNT where to find Shredder.

Mary decides that she must depart the Earth, and uses the Turnstone's powers to revert to her true form. As she disappears into the ether, she states that she will not be leaving alone... and we see the Turtles dematerialize from Krang's grasp!Krang announces...
