In prehistoric times, an gigantic asteroid crashed into the Earth – an event that many believed changed the planet’s atmosphere and resulted in the death of the dinosaurs. Actually, the meteor imprisoned an evil, sentient fungus named Ooo-Zah, and after the crash landing freed it from its rocky prison, the creature was able to build itself an animated body of stone that it utilized to single-handedly kill all of the saurians on the planet – purely for malevolent reasons.<\/p>\n

Ooo-Zah would have slain every living creature on the planet had it not fallen into the bowels of the Earth when a sudden earthquake ripped open the surface of the earth and swallowed up the alien. Trapped under tons of rock and deprived of life sustaining light, Ooo-Zah lay dormant for millions of years…<\/p>\n

Until a cheese factory drilled deep into the ground to create gigantic warehouses for their product. Eventually small portions of Ooo-Zah were able to make their way through hairline cracks into the factory, and begin growing on the cheese.<\/p>\n

Eventually the cheese was processed and shipped to pizza factories… and of course, April brings the pizza containing Ooo-Zah home.<\/p>\n

When light strikes the alien cheese, Ooo-Zah’s power grows! The monster attacks the Turtles and April and a long battle ensues. The TMNT’s efforts are for naught, as Ooo-Zah’s chessy body seems invincible… but Donatello finally realizes that light is the source of the beast’s power, and he throws a shuriken into the only lit lamp. The room is plunged into darkness, and the ninjas defeat the monster by cutting it into tiny pieces. The guys pack the bits into a trunk and carry in deep into the sewers to bury it, and Ooo-Zah is entombed once more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
