Perhaps it's an old acquaintance of Splinter from his past. Someone who he knew before he became the turtles' master. This person could have some history with Splinter and their reunion could be filled with emotions and revelations. They would be more likely to trust each other and work towards Splinter's well - being.
Well, in the TMNT fanfiction, if Splinter gets a doctor, it could lead to some interesting plot developments. Maybe the doctor discovers something unique about Splinter's physiology that the turtles didn't know. For example, there could be a hidden strength or a potential weakness that might change how they protect him.
In the traditional TMNT universe, male turtles like Leo getting pregnant goes against the biological norms of the franchise. However, in fanfiction, anything can be reimagined. Some fanfiction might use magic or some out - of - the - box concepts to make such a situation possible, but it's not part of the official TMNT lore.
In this fanfiction, the TMNT might escape by first observing their captors' routines. If the Shredder has minions guarding them, they could wait for a shift change or a moment of inattention. Donatello might be able to hack into any security systems if there are any. Also, they could use their knowledge of the sewers to find a way out. Maybe there's a hidden passage that the Shredder doesn't know about. And of course, their ninja skills would come in handy for sneaking past guards and making a quick getaway.
Sure was! TMNT originated as a comic. The comic introduced the characters and their adventures, which then led to its success in different forms of entertainment. The original comic had a significant impact on the franchise as a whole.
