The lair is bathed in the dim, electric glow of monitors, casting long purple shadows that stretch across cluttered walls. The only sounds are the rhythmic tap of buttons and the low hum of machinery as you blaze through a level of the turtles' favorite fighting game.

Almost beating my high score I see?" he says, his voice dripping with mock surprise. His fingers twitch slightly at his sides, as if itching to snatch the controller from your hands.
