A/N: Thank you guys so much for the reviews!


Previously:

"Oh no," Kenny whispered as the three teens looked down at them.


"Who are you?" asked Ben as the two kids got up.

"I think a better question here is who are you?" Kenny snapped back. He got up and glared at the three teens. Devlin followed suit. He frowned at them as his dark blue eyes swept over each teen. They seemed vaguely familiar, like he'd seen them in a dream or something.

"Hey, I asked first!" Ben snapped.

Kevin and Gwen groaned. Gwen hit her forehead with her hand and Kevin crossed his arms and glared at the brunette teen

"Really, Tennyson?" he snapped, "That's all you got?"

"Tennyson?" Kenny repeated, his eyes sweeping over the teen appraisingly. He gasped, suddenly putting two and two together. They were them from the future! Of course! The guy with the black hair looked just like Devlin, and the other guy, well, he was kinda pale, but other than that he was exactly like Kenny! But then, who was the girl? Oh, well. Probably Devlin's girlfriend or something. "You're us from the future!" he exclaimed, pointing at the three of them excitedly.

The teens exchanged looks, clearly thinking that the kid was crazy.

"Um, Kenny?" said Devlin, "I really don't think so."

"Of course they are!" Kenny exclaimed, "Think about it! Don't they look exactly like us? Well, except for the girl. Who are you, anyway?" He turned back to the red head. Kevin smirked. The kid was acting so much like Ben that he wanted to laugh.

"I'm Gwen Tennyson," Gwen told Kenny, smiling a slightly amused smile.

"What?" the two boys cried out, looking at her with wide eyes.

"Yeah, she is," Ben told them, "And I'm her cousin Ben Tennyson, and this is our friend Kevin Levin."

"Kevin Levin?" Devlin repeated, his eyes widening in terror.

"Friend?" Kenny exclaimed, "You guys hate each other! Just last week you put him back in the Null Void! That's when Devlin joined the family!"

"Hate each other?" Gwen repeated.

"Null Void?" Kevin repeated.

"Joined the family?" Ben repeated. The other two glared at him.

"What?" he asked, shrugging at them. Kevin sighed in exasperation and Gwen rolled her eyes.

"Look, I think you guys have something mixed up," said Ben gently, ignoring his friends, "Kevin joined us about a year ago. He's changed. He used to be criminally insane, but not anymore."

Now it was the boys' turn to exchange confused looks.

"No," Devlin said slowly, "I think you have something mixed up. I'm Kevin Levin's son, Devlin and this Ken Tennyson. Ben 10,000's son. I think we would know if he turned good."

"Wait, what did you just say?" Gwen asked, her eyes widening. Her hands clenched into tight fists.

"He said if Kevin Levin suddenly started doing good, we'd know about it," Kenny told her.

"No, not that!" Gwen exclaimed, shaking her flame red hair, "The part before that."

"You have something mixed up?" Kenny asked, now completely confused.

"No!" Gwen cried again. Dealing with him was just as hard as dealing with Ben. "After that!"

"I'm Kevin Levin's son?" Devlin suggested, coming to his friend's rescue.

"Yes, that!" Gwen cried, almost forgetting the reason she had asked in the first place.

"He's lying," Kevin said, begging it to be so. He couldn't deal with Gwen's yelling at him for something that obviously wasn't his fault right now. Especially not since these kids thought he was still evil. Looking at the boy's expression though, even he didn't believe his own words.

Devlin smirked.

"Wanna bet?" he asked and stepped back. He lowered his head and concentrated hard on turning into the mutated form he had inherited from his father. He felt his grey hoodie, along with the black shirt he had on underneath, rip. He opened his eyes to find the three teens staring at him, horrified. Kevin was standing in front of Gwen protectively. He had one arm behind him, wrapped partially around her waist. The boy's eyes widened and he changed back to his human self.

"That proof enough?" Kenny asked, crossing his arms on his chest, "And, dude?" he added, turning back to his best friend, "You might wanna go find another shirt."

Devlin ignored the green-eyed boy.

"He's not Kevin Levin," he stated, not taking his eyes off the dark teen, "My dad would never try to protect anyone. Let alone Gwen Tennyson."

There was silence in the room.

"Don't do that again," Kevin finally told him, letting go of Gwen. The red head stepped back, her eyes full of sympathy for her obsidian-eyed boyfriend. She knew how hard it must've been for him to see the younger version of his mutated self just now.

"Why the hell not?" Devlin snapped. His temper was flaring. That was another one of the many things he had inherited from his villain of a father.

"Because you'll lose your humanity," Kevin told him. The boy's dark blue eyes widened. "If you stay that way too long, the energy will consume you. You'll only want more, and end up hurting the people you care about most to get what you want."

There was silence again. Gwen put her hand on Kevin's shoulder.

"That wasn't your fault, Kevin," Gwen told him. He turned around and put his hands on her waist. She sighed.

"When are you gonna get that it doesn't matter what you've done?" she breathed. It was one of those rare moments that it felt like there was just the two of them. In moments like this, they could be standing in the middle of a crowded room, and still not notice anyone. Heck, they could be standing in the middle of a burning building and remain completely oblivious! Kevin shuddered at the mental image of his girlfriend engulfed by dangerous flames.

"When are you gonna get that it does?" he shot back. Her hands moved around to the back of his neck.

"Not to me," she told him.

"Um, guys?" Ben's voice interrupted them, "You know we're still here, right?"

"What was that about?" Kenny asked, as the two teens let go of each other and stepped back.

"Yeah," said Ben, awkwardly scratching the back of his neck, "I don't know how this fits into your whole 'Kevin's still evil', 'These guys are us from the future', and 'He's not really Kevin Levin' theories, but Kevin's dating Gwen."

"What?" the two boys gasped, turning their attention to the two teens.

"Although it did take him, like, five months to ask her out," Ben laughed. His friend gave him a humorless half-smile that clearly read If you keep pushing on this, I'm gonna kill you.

"And you said yes?" Devlin asked, appraising the red head with wide eyes.

"Well, I wasn't gonna wait forever," said Gwen, rolling her eyes, "It seemed like Kevin was though." She gave her boyfriend that same smile she had in the parking lot just a few minutes ago. He gave her his signature smirk back.

"Wow, Eddie's not gonna like this," Kenny said to no one in particular.

"Eddie?" Gwen repeated, frowning at the 10-year-old.

"Who's Eddie?" Kevin asked, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Gwen's husband," Kenny answered.

"Her what?" Kevin exclaimed. Devlin hit his forehead against the heel of his hand.

"Dude, you are the biggest idiot in the entire world," he hissed at his friend. Kenny glared back at the boy.

"Alright, let's calm down," said Ben, stepping forward in between the two 10-year-olds and the osmosian. Steam was almost literally coming out of his ears from anger. "Kevin, Gwen's married, and you have a kid. Either way, you both cheated on each other."

"Speaking of which," said Gwen, stepping around Kevin and Ben. She put her hands on her hips and narrowed her eyes at Devlin. "Who is your mother?"

"Ugh," Ben groaned, "Look, we have more important things to deal with than your 'relationship crisis'. We need to figure out a way back home from…wherever we are."

"Parallel dimension," Kevin hissed at him, "They got us here with the transdimensional remote," he pointed at the remote at Kenny's feet, "Level 18 tech."

"How did you know that?" Kenny asked, regarding the teen in surprise, "Isn't Gwen supposed to be the smart one? Or is that another glitch in your dimension?"

Kevin snorted.

"No, she is," he told him.

"Kevin just happens to know way too much stuff about illegal tech, thanks to being trapped in the Null Void for three years and then having to be a conman and make illegal tech deals to make money," Ben explained.

Devlin's face turned bitter.

"That's my dad," he said, "Always thinking about the money."

"Well, that and revenge on my dad," Kenny added.

"Seriously, dude," Devlin snapped at him, "Shut up."

"Well, that explains why you think Kevin's still evil," said Gwen gently. She wanted to cringe at the words. She hated it when people assumed that just because Kevin had once been a criminal, he was gonna go down that road again. "But we still have the problem of how to get back."

"Give me that," Kevin snapped, stretching his hand out for the remote.

"No," Kenny immediately shot back, "You're probably gonna use it as some sort of weapon on us!"

"Oh, just give him the damn remote!" Ben snapped, "If you don't, there's a very good chance he's gonna kill Eddie in this dimension, rather than ours."

Devlin lifted the remote and handed it to Ben, who handed it to Kevin.

"Busted," he announced after a few seconds of examination.

The two boys exchanged panicked looks.

"Uh oh," said Kenny, "Can't you fix it?"

"No," Kevin answered, "It was defective from the moment you activated it. It would take more than a week to fix this."

"So we're stuck in a dimension where Ben's a superhero married to…?" Gwen trailed off.

"Kai Green," Kenny finished for her. Gwen looked at him in surprise but didn't say anything.

"…Kai Green, Kevin's an evil super villain, and I'm married to some rich guy whose grandfather builds hotels in the most dangerous places in the universe," she finished, "Well, what could possibly go wrong here?" The girl was being sarcastic now.

"And you also have a daughter, Jenny," Kenny added.

"Kenny?" Devlin snapped, "Where does your dad keep the duct tape?"

"Top kitchen drawer, why?"

"No reason," Devlin answered, and disappeared through a doorway.

"Wait a sec," snapped Kevin, his unpredictable temper flaring again.

"Kevin, calm down-" Gwen started to say.

"Calm down?" the teen snapped, "My girlfriend's married to some guy, and as if though that wasn't enough, they have a kid! You really expect me to calm down?"

"DUDE!" Ben exclaimed, "Chill!"

"Kevin, really," said Gwen gently, "That's not me. This is me." She took his hands in her own and gently squeezed them. Her emerald eyes were staring at his pleadingly. He sighed, all his anger melting under her gaze. She smiled, knowing that she had won, and gently stood on tiptoes to give him a small kiss on the cheek. He turned his head and met her lips instead, wrapping his arms around her waist and trapping her hands in between them.

They broke away for air.

"No fair," she breathed. Kevin chuckled.

"You know what they say," he said, smirking, "All's fair in love and war."

Gwen glared at him playfully. Neither of them noticed that Kenny was staring at them in shock, and Ben was trying desperately to ignore the couple. He finally noticed the boy and sighed.

"They do this a lot," he told him, "Be glad you don't have to go through this."

"Oh, I am," Kenny assured him. It was only then that Ben noticed the Omnitrix on Kenny's wrist.

"Hey, where'd you get that?" he asked, pointing at the watch.

"The watch?" Kenny asked, "I got it for my tenth birthday. Dad gave it to me."

"There's only supposed to be one Omnitrix in the Universe," Ben told him, frowning.

"Maybe in your universe, yeah, but not here," Kenny told him, "Here there are two Omnitrixes."

"Yeah, I got that," Ben told him. At that moment Gwen and Kevin broke apart.

"So, if you guys are done sucking face," Kenny said and shuddered, "Want the grand tour? It looks like you're gonna be staying here for a while," his eyes landed on Kevin and narrowed suspiciously, "That is, until my dad gets back home and decides what to do with you."

"Sure," said Ben, shrugging, turning half-way around o look at his best friend's reaction to the last statement. Other than the slightest tightening in the osmosian's eyes, he might as well not have heard the boy. "By the way, where is Ben 10,000?"

"Dad's away on some important mission," said Kenny, waving his hand like the arrogant man who was his father would have done, "Come on, let's go. I wonder what Devlin's up to with the duct tape…"

The three teens exchanged looks as they followed the young boy outside. Kevin shrugged.

"So clueless," he muttered.
