Summary: A preteen assassin, a clown, a rabbit, an intangible serial killer, legs, and another clown are sent to Disney World to fetch a muppet. Only success ensues.
Warnings: who let this happen

[The year is 1993. The place is the Disney-MGM Studios, and the stage for the New York Street show is nearly set. It's a gorgeous summer day. The sun is shining, the humidity is oppressive, the park is alive with the wails of impatient children, and a sizable crowd gathers in anticipation for the next performance.

Also gathering for said performance are the stars of the 3-minute pre-show show. Just like they do every day, Eugene, Gaylord, Mark and Tracy meet in the changing room and slip on their heavily padded trademarked costumes. They've been through this ridiculous routine dozens, maybe hundreds of times— they could probably manage it in their sleep by now. Though it's likely anyone could, it's not terribly complicated. The life of a character performer isn't glamorous, but they enjoy their work, and they're looking forward to heading out in their trademarked turtle-van and meeting this afternoon's audience. Even if these outfits are sweltering. They do it for the kids.

But yet, in that very building, at that very same moment, four strangers on a mission materialize out of thin air. They've come a very long way with a set of very specific, and essentially meaningless, instructions. Step one:

become a teenage mutant ninja turtle.]

Sixte... Do you mean six and ten?

[ FUCK YOU, SHE IS THE BEST AT NUMBERS B( ]

Six and ten... Six and ten added is sixteen, yes.

[Who even counts like that!!]

There are four turtles. [ not sixteen. Allen, are you sick. ]

I know there are four! But they're meant to be teen-aged turtles, so they could be sixteen years old.

What's so important about that age?

It's just an example! I don't know why their ages are important at all.

I'm not certain what a 'ninja' is, either.

I've never heard of it either. What of mutant?

Er, a mutant is something which...

[he rubs his chin, thinking,] it's a living thing which has been changed into something strange. Have you seen the animals in the outlands, past the city? Those have all been mutated.

Does that mean your eye is mutated?

[--Oh. He pauses, glancing to the side, expression flattening out.]

I suppose it is.

[ She looks at the turtles again. ]

I am still not wearing that. I'm too small for it anyway.

[Glances between her and Oz.

...They could stand on each other's shoulders and maybe fit in one...]

People would become suspicious if we're missing turtles, I'd think.

[Why would the Initiative send them on a mission they're physically incapable of completing WHAT IS THIS.]

Can't we just let them do the stupid dance and someone lure them out once they're finished?

How would we lure them out? We couldn't let them near the backstage.

The important bit is that we're able to steal the... um, 'muppet'.

What is it?

[ She looks expectantly at Allen. Because Allen is supposed to know. ]

[He

shrugs.]

I don't know.

You didn't ask?

W-well, it's something they would use in a play! 'Miss Piggy', right? A muppet might be a sort of... puppet?

We're looking for a pig puppet?

We may be.

[Righto.] The Initiative must have its reasons...

Apart from it being controlled by idiots?

...I don't think even they would send us to fetch something they haven't any need of.

[He doesn't seem entirely convinced, though.]

We might as well take it while we're here.

Would we even be allowed to return without it?

[HE HOPES SO.]

If we aren't able to find it, maybe they'll send someone else! They'll want us back.

Only as long as we're useful.
