AUTHOR'S NOTE- Hey guys, long time no see! If any of you read my profile then this story is long over do! I warn you it's a bit similar to the last one the 'Inbetween.' Like the Inbetween was a TMNT version of Lovely bones, this will be the TMNT version of Titanic. Why can't I come up with my own darn plots? It might be a little confusing at first but just like the last one everything will be revealed over time. If you have any questions at all please feel free to send them in a review and I'll try me best to answer without spoiling them story. I have to admit here however I hope I can finish this, I got a really late start and to be honest I haven't seen TMNT for a while so I pray the turtles aren't too out of character. But without further a due here is the disclaimer.

DISCLAIMER- Do I own TMNT? Does anybody actually read the disclaimer?

First mate Tyson glanced at his notes and then back into the trillions of stars that lay before him. Behind him he could hear the barks and yells of his crew adjusting their sail and directions.

"Steady as she goes!" he cried back to his crew.

Just then a bursting flash of blue soared right before Tyson's face. He jumped backwards and gasped. His eyes followed in wonder as the light blue temporarily eliminated the black sky then disappeared.

Despite his desperate attempt to look experienced and wise towards his crew he couldn't help but smile for that was the closest encounter with a comet he had yet.

Then thousands of blue flashes came raining down before them. It was a meteor shower Tyson soon figured out. They came down like rain drops in a frantic storm.

Tyson spun around in circles just to get the fullest of this spectacular sight. Unfortunately he was oblivious of how much of fool he looked like.

It was also just at that moment when the last being in his galaxy that he wanted to look like a fool in front of came walking up the sky deck. However even after glancing at Tyson's idiotic display there was no amusement to his face.

"Alright you ladies speed it up! Come on catch those solar winds quicker. I want to go double the speed we're going now!" he screamed.

Tyson spun around and slammed his fist to his breast in a solute.

"Captain Triangulum!" he cried. "I was just..."

"Enough of your fooling around boy we have to get moving!" Triangulum urgently ordered.

"If you pardon my asking sir, how come? We are perfectly on schedule, if we arrive any earlier our clients won't be ready for the shipments!"

Triangulum glared at him. It was easy to tell from his first sentence that this was his first trip. Fresh, eager, innocence was spilling from Tyson, but he also reeked of ignorance.

"Don't you know where we are boy? Haven't you done your home work?"

Tyson pondered for a moment then said "Sector 743 sir?"

"Aye, or Sector Asteroid, there are more of em here then anywhere else in this galaxy."

"So then shouldn't we be slowing down, to avoid them?" Tyson asked, very confused.

Triangulum looked at him silently for a second, then he laughed.

"Oh my boy! It's a good thing you've journeyed on the Astral Light with me as your captain!"

Astral Light was the fastest trade ship in the galaxy Triangulum. And that was an impressive record considering there were millions of trade ships. Their job was to exchange goods from all over the galaxy.

A normal space trade ship looked like an Earth sea ship. Except the trade ships had special sails to capture the solar wind, also a protective force field around the ship to protect them from radiation, cold and suction of space.

The Astral Light was ten times bigger than any other ship ever made, making it the size of a planet. It also has the capability of traveling at light speed, making it the only ship that could.

Since it was such a magnificence of naval technology it was trusted with the most precious cargo in the galaxy, stardust. It was a substance the rulers of the sectors ordered and had the power to keep them immortal and on the throne for an infinite amount of time.

Such desirable cargo was trusted in the hands of the most faithful and skillful sailors in the galaxy, such as Captain Triangulum. Whom was awarded the name after the galaxy because he had made the most successful voyages of any trade ship.

"You see Tyson," Triangulum explained. "Sector Asteroid is the prime hiding spot for ship jackers. No ship wants to float here for long. Especially the Astral Light. They probably know our course and our expecting us to come here right at this time."

Tyson scuffed "But we have aboard more then 500 missile launchers, not to mention an impenetrable force field, no one ship can take us out."

"You'd be surprised boy, especially if that ship was the right one."

Tyson still looked at him doubtfully.

"Go to bed now son, don't you worry I'll make sure we stay safe." Triangulum said with a wink and a smile.

Tyson gave him a small smile back and headed back to his quarters.

Later that night Triangulum was taking a stroll along the sky deck still making sure his crew was working twice as fast. It was dangerous working them so hard without rest but they needed to get out of there as soon as possible.

He frowned when he saw Tyson's figure sitting on the edge of the ship.

"A little restless I see." he said coming up behind Tyson.

Tyson jumped and looked back.

"A little, far to much to sleep." he sighed.

"It's best to keep your guard up, but you need rest if you want it to be strong when you need it most."

"What did you mean by the right ship sir?" Tyson finally spit out the longing question on his mind.

"Argh there is only one space jackers ship in the galaxy that can take down the Astral, or one captain that is."

Tyson looked at him, worried, "Who?"

Triangulum narrowed his eyes and whispered "Red Sun."

Right at that moment the entire ship shook with a massive blast from the side.

"We're being attacked Captain!" the watchman cried from his post.

Triangulum jumped up "Tyson get to your quarters this will be brief!" he ordered.

"I'm not leaving you!" Tyson protested.

"That was an order!" he screamed.

Then out of one particularity big asteroid came a ship, back as the sky. On the deck Tyson spotted a rather tall and massive figure. He had spikes shooting out of his back and forehead. His smile was smeared across his face with razor teeth so white they could be seen a mile away.

The figure looked back at Tyson with soulless red eyes. Tyson gasped "Red sun." he whispered and backed away into hiding.

"Shoot off the warning missiles, show them we mean business!" Triangulum ordered.

10 missiles were shoot off and came a fair distance to the ship. It didn't even shake the captain however. He had his eyes on something else. Triangulum followed his glance and gasped.

There were two massive asteroids, twice as big as the Astral coming on a collusion course right in front of their path. If they hit Astral would be trapped.

"Fast as she goes!" He cried "Now!"

His crew desperately worked to get the ship moving but then they realized Red Sun's ship was right in front of their path.

"We're going to run into them!" the navigator cried.

Triangulum narrowed his eyes "Keep going." he ordered.

The crew pushed away their hesitation and plunged forwards. Red Sun smiled and ordered "Run into them and send out the missiles!"

Dozens out missiles fired from the ship aiming for the force field generators. However the generators were to strong to be destroyed and were only shaken, however the crew's view was temporarily blinded in the flashing light.

During that moment Red Sun ordered his ship to turn sideways towards the Astral. As soon as the crew could see again it was too late and they crashed into Red Sun's ship.

In a moment's time the force field generators flickered then turned off. As soon as they did the entire crew under Red Sun jumped on board the Astral and attacked. In front of them the asteroids collided, sealing off the sole escape, and the fate of the lives of the crew.

The crew was no where near as skilled in fighting as Red Sun's were. Most of them only lasted a few sword clanks before being sliced.

Red Sun walked on board, calmly as if taking a stroll. Explosions went off around him and murder screams were lost into space, but he had his sights set to the cargo, the stardust.

"What's the matter Red Sun, don't I get a hello?" Triangulum smeared from behind him.

Red Sun smiled."Ah Triangulum, I was worried this would be a hollow victory without your defeat."

"Hate to disappoint you but your plan fails here." he said bravely showing his sword.

Swords in the Triangulum galaxy were made of meteor rock and took years to master. A skill which both Red Sun and Triangulum were equal.

Red Sun smiled. "We'll see."

The two charged at each other. From above, hidden behind a sail Tyson watched in horror and shame.

Red Sun flung his sword first which was narrowly dodged. Triangulum used the momentum to attack on Red Sun's other side. He slashed his sword at him which caused Red Sun to fall to the ground. Triangulum continued his attack but Red Sun kicked him before he could get another hit.

Red Sun leaped up and charged at Triangulum while he was recovering from the blow. This time he slashed his across the face. Triangulum screamed in pain. Red Sun smirked.

"Prepare to end your last voyage." he said walking towards him.

Triangulum clenched his fists and charged towards Red Sun who tried to bring his sword up in defense but it was knocked off his hands.

Triangulum pushed Red Sun up against a wooden wall of the ship and hissed in his ear while holding his sword to Red Sun's throat.

"Take your crew and get off my ship!"

"I don't take orders from you." he responded.

From above Tyson was the only one who could see the crew man sneaking up behind Triangulum.

"Captain Triangulum behind you!" he desperately cried.

The warning was too late and a sword was thrust into Triangulum's chest. His eyes widened then fell dead to the floor.

"No!" Tyson screamed from above.

He slashed off one of the ropes tied to thee sail and swung down to tackle Triangulum's murderer. He screamed and lifted his sword to strike. A strong set of claws however seized him before he could claim revenge.

He screamed as Red Sun dug his claws into his back.

"Foolish move boy." he hissed then thrust his sword through Tyson.

He dropped him gasping for air. Blood was spilling from his chest when he weakly looked up at Triangulum. With a battle cry he lifted his sword towards Red Sun.

Red Sun snatched the sword from him and once again pierced it through his body. He threw Tyson towards the wall and his body fell still, never to move again.

Red Sun smiled "Fools." he said.

By then the rest of the Astral's crew was also dead and the deck was swarming with Red Sun's.

"Cabin boy!" Red Sun screamed.

A scrawny boy with mucus green skin limped out of the old ship.

"Clean their blood off my new ship." he sneered pointing towards the bodies of the captain and first mate.

Then he turned around to inspect his treasure, also missing the boy's harsh glare at him.
