I own nothing. Ben 10(all of them) is owned by cartoon network. This is a simple fan project and nothing more. Enjoy!
People were hanging around the out door tables like any other day at the groovy smoothie, and like any other day, Ben was drinking 12 smoothies at once. He was trying to set a new record to ease his boredom. It was 4 years since he saved the universe(again). Every major villain was under commission and all the smaller threats seemed to have disappeared. Gwen and Kevin were still out of town and kai was so busy that she didn't really have time for date nights. He still had rook but he was more patrolling than defending. Even he was busy investigating the southern areas of Asia for distress signals. Even more inter dimensional game shows or doppelgänger attacks would be better than this. Even the novelty and power of getting the master control wore off. Ben finished his wheat grass and pineapple chunk smoothie and still felt dreary.
"Huh, when I was hoping for more free time. I didn't mean nothing but free time." Ben grunted to himself
He threw away the 16 cups he finished and ordered 6 more before taking them to his car
"Maybe some food to go with it will help." Ben said as he hopped inside and drove off for burger barn
As Ben was half way there a message from the plumbers was sent.
Ben, meet us at the base, it's important
-grandpa
"Yes, finally some action." Ben said
He was so stoked he didn't bother waiting for a secret passage to open, he parked his car in the nearest lot and went big chill to phase through the ground to base. He then went crash hopper and stuck the landing before changing back.
"Okay, who do I gotta fight to save the world this time?" Ben said excitedly
"Well actually, it's not something you have to fight, at least we're Hoping you don't." Grandpa max said
He then showed Ben what they were calling him for. It was a liquid entity, appearing like a smoothie made out of alien x. It was reshaping itself as it was stuck inside an energy tube.
"What is that?" Ben asked
"AZmuth sent it, he said it's the last of an ancient species he found exploring a planet deemed as inhabited by the plumbers." Max explained
"And what does this have to do with me?" Ben asked
"Azmuth can't get a dna sample for the omnitrix, he's tried everything but the entity won't register on the watch's dna data banks." Max said
"So looks like the smartest being in the universe needs my help yet again." Ben said in a cocky tone
"He just needs you to try and retrieve a sample to save the race using the watch, you think you can do that without anything going wrong Ben?" Max asked
"Relax, I save races all the time, this should be a snap." Ben said
"Well Alright, good luck." Ben said as he input a code that encased the entity in a clear canister and handed it to Ben
Ben went xlr8 and in an instant he was home.
"So, what kind of hopefully not evil thing are you anyway." Ben said as he opened the canister
The entity was motionless, like a glass of water. Ben viewed it from from every angle and found nothing ordinary about it now. He tried to poke the surface of the goo, but as soon as his skin made contact it began to latch onto his wrist. Ben was panicking as it was covering the omnitrix(he wasn't use to the master control yet) and before he could say anything a bit of the entity shot itself at his forehead. Ben felt his head go numb and suddenly saw his life flash before him like a movie. He could see retrieving the watch, stopping vilgax, rebooting the watch, albedo, his date with Julie, going alien X, meeting paradox, getting the ultimatrix, fighting vilgax again, retrieving the new omnitrix, rebuilding the universe, kissing kai, and saving the universe again as feedback. Ben suddenly regained the feeling in his head again and instantly wished it was numb again. He felt his cold floor against an ear splitting headache. He sat up and saw the entity was taking forms again, finally stopping on a female humanoid figure(featureless like Gwen's grandma but space like skin) the entity looked down upon Ben before bending over, its new face an inch away from his.
"Hello, Ben tenneyson."
