Hey guys, here's another Ben 10 story that came to mind today. I looked up some of the future episodes and it seems that Gwen will ask Darkstar to help her and Ben fight against Kevin. This is my interpretation or guess of what I think will happen in the series. So here goes and let me know how I do. :) –I Own Nothing –Lioness002
...
It had been weeks, since Ben and I had seen Kevin. We had fought him at the Forge of Creation and the Null Void, but since then, we hadn't heard a peep from him. We heard stories of him whispered from planet to planet, but every time we tried to fight him, we had gotten there to late and he had already left. He was settling old scores, and we watched him slip away deeper and deeper into the darkness of his own insanity. Every planet closer he got to Earth, he grew more and more insane and vengeful. It killed me to see Ben plotting against Kevin; the person he had looked up to for over a year and a half, the person he shared laughs and memories with. Kevin, a hero in his own right, our friend, forever and always no matter what happened. After Kevin had absorbed the Ultimatrix to save the universe from Aggregor, he had changed, and now Ben wanted to stop him once and for all. It wasn't right. If Kevin wouldn't change back willingly by himself, then Ben and I would have to do it for him, or in the worst case... take him out. I had a plan, a good one, but I knew Ben wouldn't like it, he wouldn't aprove. But I had to do something, I couldn't just sit around and expect Kevin to get btter, I had to help him. I didn't even really like the dyer consequences or situation either, but we didn't have a choice, the plan was our last resort, a ditch effort to try and save him, we were running out of time, and so was Kevin.

I stared glumly toward the old abandoned warehouse and grimaced to myself. "This was so stupid, he wouldn't help." I thought as I gave a shudder of unease and took a tentative step toward the crumbling building. I was afraind, but I wouldn't show it, I was doing this for Kevin, I had to be strong for him. I really, really didn't want to be anywhere near here or him but he could be the key to saving Kevin. I walked past sign after sign that said "No Trespassing" or something like it as I got closer to the haunted looking building. I swallowed my pride and nausea and walked up to the rusty old warehouse door and lightly placed my hand on the rusted knob to push the door forward. The door squeaked open just enough that I could slip through and get inside.
I wiped dust off of my outfit and glanced around, the room was dimly lit by three or four burning candles. There were boxes everywhere, left alone on the floor with their contents spilling out. Forgotten, abandoned. I waited for my eyes to adjust before venturing any further into the creepy old building that felt like a tomb. I felt suffocated and claustrophobic but I had to push forward, for Kevin. He was all that mattered right now, I was doing this for him.
I took a deep breath and swallowed the bile in my throat as I called out his name, "Michael?" I asked cautiously gazing around the dim and dirty room. I heard faint steps from somewhere in the distance, the source, Michael's metal clad boots. I stayed close to the door in case I needed a quick escape. Michael Morningstar; the most creepy, perverted and evil person I had ever meet, seemed to dissipate from the shadows like he was one himself. I gazed at him waiting for some sign of acknowledgment that he had seen or heard me. I flinched when he turned toward me, his silver helmet gleaming in the faint light while his dark and evil looking eyes bored into mine.
"To what do I owe the pleasure of your company Gwendolyn?" He asked casually. In bit my lip to keep myself from making a smart remark and exhaled loudly. I hated his guts.
"I'm here to ask you for a favor." I answered sadly, I wouldn't go to him unless it was an absolute emergency. Sadly, no one else in the world I knew could help Kevin return back to himself, back to me. I looked back at Michael, holding his shadowed and malevolent gaze, unflinching and proud.
"Why ask me? Shouldn't you be going to your brainless boyfriend?" He asked harshly. I ground me teeth slightly and bit my tongue, I needed his help, insults and yelling wouldn't help. Everyone knew Kevin was gone, he was just trying to hurt my feelings, poke and prod at mt weaknesses.
"One," I started to answer in a steely tone, "he's not brainless, and two, he's gone." I mumbled, the last part ended in a whisper, I didn't want to think about all the details right now. "You of all people should know that." I snapped. "You were probably jumping for joy when you heard the news that he was gone."
"Oh, that's right, he left to go be insane. He left you because he didn't care." He stepped a few paces forward coming to stand in front of me. "But I care." He whispered dangerously, placing a gloved hand on my cheek. My eyes opened wide and I slapped his hand away.
"Don't you dare touch me." I hissed pushing him away. I heard an echoed laugh reverberating from his helmet and around the room. I internally cringed but kept up a strong front.
"Right." He answered darkly.
"Can we get back to the topic as of why I came here to talk to you about?" I snapped peevishly. I could hear a muffled chuckle from Morningstar but I ignored it. "I came here to ask for your help, remember?" Michael shrugged and went and sat on an old, filthy looking arm chair. He grabbed a large book from the table beside it and started flipping through it in a bored fashion.
"I recall it faintly." I glared at him and gave an agitated sigh. Michael glanced up and placed the book softly back on the table. "What is it?" He finally asked in an annoyed tone.
"I want you to help us defeat Kevin." I said rather cautiously, I didn't want him to get the wrong idea when I said the word 'defeat'.
"Really?" Was his only reply. I could tell from his tone of voice he was intrigued with my proposition. "Why should I help you?" He asked. I smirked to myself and placed a hand on my hip.
"Because there's something in it for you." I stated. "I have a plan that can turn Kevin and you back to normal." Michael leaned forward in the chair resting his elbows on his thighs and his hands on his chin so he could hear and think better.
"I'm listening."
