By Mark Rodriguez The Shredder has returned to life after literally escaping hell. Rather than continue his evil ways, he is actually trying to redeem himself from his past sins and sets out to lead the Turtles against the Rat King and his evil plans. The story opens with Shredder talking to the Turtles around the campfire in the forest. He wanted to keep away from the Turtles after all the harm he's caused them, but with the upcoming Armageddon Game coming soon, he can't sit idly by. He says the Rat King will bring obstacles that will not know how to deal with and with proper training they will not survive. Shredder will teach them the lost mystic arts of Kuji-Kiri, The Ten Cuts, hand gestures that can summon the energies of the universe. These techniques were taught to individuals in critical secret missions and are forbidden to use them outside of that mission. Mikey asks why these techniques are so dangerous. Leo says these techniques have close ties to black magic...
