Chapter 2: A New Threat

As the trailer to which Grandpa Max was driving was catching up on, Ben decided it was time to change his Omnitrix to Diamondhead and leaped onto the trailer. Ben then used Diamondhead's powers and began to shoot various shards of diamonds against Charmcaster and Hex as they were using their magical powers to hover out of the area.

"Deal with them niece" said Hex as he turned to her.

"Fine" replied Charmcaster.

Charmcaster then used her magic weapons against the Tennysons who were closing in on them. The exploding magical bombs nearly drove the trailer out of control as Grandpa Max attempted to regain control.

"I'll handle them" said Ben to Grandpa Max as he leaned down to the window.

"Fine by me" said Grandpa Max who was trying to maintain control of the wheel.

Ben then leaps down from the trailer and gives chase to Charmcaster and Hex who were attempting to run what seemed like some old ruins of some sort.

"I thought you were going to get rid of them?" asked Hex as he was running alongside with Charmcaster.

"What do you think I am doing?" replied Charmcaster as she uses more of her magical bombs and provides a smoke cover for her and her uncle to escape.

"Where the heck did they go?" asked Ben as the dust began to clear up.

But before Ben could do anything else, the trailer which Grandpa Max was trying to gain under control was coming right toward him. Ben then used Diamondhead's powers and stopped the trailer right before he or the trailer could hit the nearby ruins.

"So are you okay?" asked Ben as Grandpa Max and Gwen both got out of the trailer.

"Yea, pretty much" replied Grandpa Max.

"But those two still got away, now why on Earth would someone like Hex or Charmcaster just run from a fight like that?" added Gwen, "It's just not like them."

Suddenly the communicator to which Jimmy Neutron had given the Tennysons began to rang.

"Yea, what is it?" asked Grandpa Max as he turned on the communicator.

"Max Tennyson, I'm glad I found you" said Jimmy on the other line, "we seem to have a new threat which Beautiful Gorgeous we fought belongs to the Occult."

"Do you think Hex and Charmcaster are linked to this Occult group?" asked Ben as his Omnitrix changed himself back into his human self.

"Not sure" said Jimmy then a portal opened up right in front of the Tennysons, "I have opened a portal back to my lab. Everybody else has already arrived."

As the portal opened right in front of the Tennysons, Grandpa Max drove the trailer right into the portal with Ben and Gwen in it and finally arrived greeting the rest of the team.

"Glad you Tennysons could make it" said Jimmy as Grandpa Max parked the trailer right in the lab and stepped out.

"So what's this Occult I am hearing about?" asked Grandpa Max.

"We probably think it may have to do with these stolen amulets" replied Jimmy, "we it turns out Beautiful Gorgeous was after one of them in my universe and Skulcker was after one in Danny's."

"And Skulcker didn't even stay and fight like he usually does" added Danny.

"We need to know the location of where this Occult or sympathizers of this Occult might strike next" said Jimmy then he turns to Spongebob and Timmy, "do you know any special magical items in your universes?"

"Well, there's that special, special, special amulet King Neptune keeps" replied Spongebob.

"Then I think that's where the Occult is going to target next" said Jimmy as he began setting coordinates to Spongebob's universe, "we have to get to King Neptune and warn him about it."

"Uh, Jimmy before we go, can you do something with my Omnitrix?" asked Ben as he showed it to Jimmy, "I sort of managed to gain control of all the aliens in it one time when I was fighting Vilgax once, maybe if you can do it again for me?"

"Certainly" replied Jimmy as he began modifying the Omnitrix.

After that was finished, Jimmy and the others went through the dimensional portal and went right toward King Neptune's thrown room.

"How dare you people barge into my thrown room like this!" shouted King Neptune as he slammed his fist on his chair.

"But King Neptune sir" said Spongebob, "we're just trying to warn you about this Occult that wants to steal your amulet."

"You mean this?" asked King Neptune as he showed it to everybody in his hand, "This is one of my most prized possessions. Maybe you could give me some proof that this Occult group is after it."

Suddenly the large door to the thrown room was immediately destroyed and there stood Man-Ray who quickly knocked out the two guards.

"Alright King Neptune as he readied a large weapon with himself, "hand over that amulet of yours or else!"

"Ha, you would have to get through us first" said Spongebob as he leaped right in front of Jimmy.

"I would like to see you people just try that" said Man-Ray as Skulcker appeared right in front of him, "looks like I made a new friend that equally hates you people as much I do."

Skulcker then readied his rockets and began to fire at Jimmy and everybody else. Ben quickly changed himself into XLR8 and began to dodge the rockets that were coming toward him along with getting everybody else out of the way. This then gave Man-Ray the right opportunity in the chaos to manage to take the amulet right from King Neptune's hand.

"This is finally mine!" laughed Man-Ray as he held the amulet in his hand laughing.

"I don't think so" said Ben as he changed himself into Cannon Bolt and rolled right toward Man-Ray.

"Do something you loath" said Man-Ray to Skulcker.

"Don't rush Skulcker" said Skulcker as he readied a large laser gun and fired right at Ben who was still Cannon Bolt, sending Ben right toward everybody else as they were trying to recover from the chaos Skulcker had created.

"I got this one!" cried Danny as he went right in front of Ben and attempted to halt the large bowling ball-like alien from crashing into everybody else.

"Well, this was much easier than I ever expected" said Man-Ray to Skulcker, "let's get the heck out of here."

Suddenly a portal from nowhere opened and Man-Ray along with Skulcker entered it and exited the other side where they greeted Hex and Charmcaster, along with Beautiful Gorgeous.

"Do you have King Neptune's amulet?" asked Hex to Man-Ray.

"Yea, yea" replied Man-Ray as he handed it over to Hex, "here it is. So when do we three get paid?"

"I just need one more stop" replied Hex, "and that is to gain enough power source from this Fairy World I have been hearing about so much."

"And how the heck are you going to do that?" asked Beautiful Gorgeous.

"By absorbing much of the energy in this amulet I have right here with me" said Hex, "this should be just enough to also get our friends from the Syndicate out of the predicament they are in."

Back at King Neptune's place, Danny had managed to halt Ben who was Cannon Bolt from crashing right into everybody.

"Just great" said Cindy, "another failure by Ben Tennyson who just had to give the villain the weapon to take us all out."

"Hey, it's not my fault" complained Ben.

"Look, I don't care whose fault it is!" bellowed King Neptune as he roared at everybody, "All I want is my most prized possession back in my hands."

"What's so special about some piece of junk?" asked Sheen.

"Care to say that in my face again?" asked King Neptune as he lowered himself down to Sheen.

"Uh, you could use a breath mint" replied Sheen who was fanning his hand.

"Just what was that amulet of yours for anyway?" asked Jimmy.

"That was a powerful magical amulet given to my father and crafted from a very powerful wizard" replied King Neptune, "it is said the amulet in question can bind the very universe around it. I always thought it was some superstitions of some sort. But now that I hear a dark Occult group has acquired it, I fear that something bad could indeed happen. The amulet along with other amulets like it can be powered by some of the most powerful beings in the universe."

"I think I know where this Occult could head next" said Timmy, "I don't think we have any time to waste."
