DISCLAIMER: I don’t own the TMNT, or any related characters (much to their relief, I’m sure!) If there is anything else in this story you recognise from somewhere else, then I don’t own that either.

This is an older one-shot of mine, written back in 2007. It was inspired by the rumors going around at the time that Back To The Sewers (back then only known as Fast Forward Season 2), was going to feature Splinter somehow being 'removed' from the cartoon.
