Chapter 2: Rescue now, ask questions later.

Shadow: Welcome to the second chapter of Defenders.

Dani: Last time Katara, the waterbending girl from another dimension who was stuck in this dimension until she completed a mission, met Nightwing, the former protégé of the Batman, inside a continent inside the Bermuda Triangle. They worked together to find a strange artefact. And they also became fast friends but Nightwing still hasn't shared his secret identity.

Shadow: Okay now we can continue the story but first a little more information. Ben 10 has new aliens as well as all the ones he's transformed into up to Ben 10 Omniverse.

9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0-9-0

The seventeen year old hero who wielded the Omnitrix, Ben Tennyson, was currently in his Plumbers plane on course to the Bermuda triangle.

Ben was travelling there because his grandpa had received some high tech frequency coming from the infamous triangle so he had sent Ben to see what it was. Rook was currently on his own world, Gwen had a few broken bones and Kevin was on an undercover mission in the alien underworld and black market so this was a lone mission. Though this was a lone mission he knew he would still need help from a source of great intellect.

"Okay Gwen so what exactly is the Bermuda triangle?" Ben asked.

"There are many rumours about the Bermuda Triangle being a portal to another dimension, or some deserted island, or even a large monster that is the ocean in the Bermuda Triangle. So from a human perspective I can say I have no clue. But other sources claim that there is some type of mega advanced alien technology hiding something for an intergalactic war. But there are 10 alien stories that there is some large continent inside the continent." Gwen said through the communicator.

"Okay and what theories are there about the disappearances?" Ben asked.

"Actually some believe the wall of fog that surrounds it creates such a distortion and that there is such a magnetic force that the radar and sonar stop working and the plane flies blindly until it crashes. Also some stories indicate that the large tech that might or might not be in there acts as some kind of low tech jammer. All level 5 and bellow technology stops working so just in case we gave you a Galvan tech generator that should enable you to travel in and out without any problem. Also we have a Galvan communication system so I won't lose touch with you." Gwen said.

"Thanks Gwen. I'm coming up to the wall of fog now." Ben said.

Ben then drove faster into the fog and once he was inside the lights that warned him about the energy signature and the type of technology.

"Uh Gwen, what level is the Omnitrix?" Ben asked.

"Level 20, why?" Gwen replied.

"The scanners indicate level 50 tech." Ben said "I think there might be something here that might be used to start a war."

Gwen was silent for a moment while she thought about this but then before she could say anything Ben spoke up again.

"Uh Gwen, turns out the people on the planes and boats that crashed here created their own civilisation on a small part of this continent." Ben said.

"You mean there is actually a continent in there?" Gwen asked.

"Yeah I'm sending you and Grandpa Max the details of the scan right now." Ben said but then he noticed something.

By the very powerful tech there were multiple life forms. Ben then noticed that two of the life forms were human and the other ones were… lots of snarling monsters and hybrids. And in the hands of the humans was a strange red artefact that seemed to be the level 50 tech.

Ben then looked at the Omnitrix that he had learned to use over the past year.

"What alien would be a good choice to help those two?" Ben asked as he dialled the Omnitrix.

Ben then stopped at the perfect alien then he opened the hangar door before he jumped out into the air

~00000~

Nightwing and Katara were in a pickle. While they had stopped for a quick rest they had been jumped by a whole army of monsters and animal hybrids.

These ones had obviously been smarter because they damaged the Night-Wing before attacking them.

They were now overwhelmed and needed something to turn the tides. As they started to get cornered there was a bright flash of green light and then dust flew into the air.

"LET ME TELL YOU SOM'THING CREEPY MONSTER THINGS! YOU PICKED THE WRONG PEOPLE TO MESS WITH! NOW YOU MESS WITH RATH!" Rath yelled as he jumped out as he began attacking all the threats.

"Uh Nightwing…?" Katara began.

"Don't worry he's one of the good guys." Nightwing said. "Now this fight has become whelmingly fair."

Nightwing and Katara then joined in the fight with Rath and they started to push the monsters back.

Rath then slapped the Omnitrix symbol on his chest and he was now Gravattack.

"Gravattack!" Gravattack yelled thus striking fear into his enemies.

He then used his gravitational abilities to attack the other enemies while all Nightwing and Katara could do was watch so that they would be sucked into his gravitational pull.

Eventually Ben had to change aliens again because more monsters started showing up. He was now Four Arms and Now Nightwing and Katara could help with the fighting.

"Hey Four Arms. We need to get out of here. We can't keep this up for long." Nightwing said.

"You're right." Four Arms said before he pulled out a pair of keys and pressed the green button.

The three of them were then teleported onto Ben's ship, with the artefact and the Night-Wing before the ship flew away.

As they flew away Four Arms transformed back into Ben.

"Hey, I'm Ben, Ben Tennyson." Ben said.

"Hey I'm Nightwing." Nightwing said. "And this is Katara."

"Thanks for saving us Ben." Katara said.

"So what exactly is that alien tech that you have?" Ben asked.

Katara and Nightwing then both explained how they didn't know what it was and how they both got wrapped up in the mission.

Ben had to think about what he should do with this information and then he decided that he should probably take them to the Plumbers HQ in space so that they could look for any information regarding the artefact.

"Okay we are going to head out of the triangle and go to the plumber headquarters in space to look at the artefact. I'm bringing you two along since you two are obviously connected to this. Maybe we can work on figuring this out." Ben said.

"Wait, did you say Space?" Katara asked.

"Yeah." Ben said. "You'll love it, it's candy land up there."

As they flew to the Plumbers Space HQ Katara told Ben about her world and Ben returned the favour by telling her about how he got the Omnitrix and about the Omnitrix.

Nightwing took the time to chat to Batgirl and tell her what was going on. He also told her to take charge of the team until he got back.

They then got out of the orbit of the planet and Katara looked out the window to take a look at the world underneath her.

"Wow I'm overwhelmed." Katara said.

"I've seen it too many times so I'm underwhelmed." Ben said.

"I'm just whelmed." Nightwing said.

"Hey that Asteroid over there has a building carved into it." Katara said.

"Oh that is the Watchtower. It is where the Justice League watches over our planet." Nightwing said.

"Okay guys we're gonna dock on the Plumbers HQ now." Ben said before the ship docked.

They then left the ship and Katara couldn't help but have her eyes wonder around and take a look at her surroundings. 3 months ago she would never have been able to imagine any of this but now she was able to see it with her own eyes. Even Nightwing was impressed by this place, though he was more accustomed to seeing aliens and future technology this place was still very interesting to him.

All three of them noticed that some of the Plumbers would occasionally give them a strange look and although they were used to the extra ordinary, it wasn't everyday that you saw Batman's former protégé and a girl in weird blue clothing holding a sword and some strange artefact walking in a Plumbers Base with Ben Tennyson.

They then walked into one room where they saw Max Tennyson and Gwen Tennyson… who was covered in casts.

"Hi Gwen, Hey Grandpa, this is Katara and this is…" Ben started but then he was cut off.

"Nightwing." Gwen said in a mono tone.

"Gwen." Nightwing replied in the same mono tone that Batman had taught him.

"You two know each other?" Ben asked.

"Yes, we dated briefly in middle school while I was in Gotham City." Gwen said.

Ben and Katara then exchanged nervous glances.

"I told her the secret identities of Batgirl and Batman and that made our relationship stronger." Nightwing said.

"Speaking of Batgirl, are you and her still together?" Gwen asked.

"Yes… how about you and Kevin?" Nightwing asked.

"Oh we're both still in a relationship." Gwen said. "So what brings you to plumbers HQ?"

"Katara and I found a strange artefact that according to Ben is a high level piece of machinery so he brought us here to examine it and learn more about it from other smarter species." Nightwing replied.

They then spent the next few hours trying to identify the artefact. They even had to resort to calling Azmuth and for once in his life he didn't know. He couldn't get it to work or open it.

Now they were all pondering over what it could mean. They right now had no clues what so ever.

"I don't understand, if none of us are able to solve this riddle then what exactly are we supposed to do?" Katara asked.

"It's not like this thing is going to give us a clue on what to do." Ben said and then as if on cue the artefact started glowing and pulsing.

~00000~

On another world light years away from the Plumbers base a blue blur dashed across a lush green area.

The area had luscious green grass, mountains and hills, waterfalls leading to the ocean, orange soil, loops and twists in the land and floating platforms.

The blue blur stopped to reveal a blue anthropomorphic hedgehog. He had white gloves and red and white sneakers. He was none other than Sonic the Hedgehog… the Fastest Thing Alive.

Sonic chuckled to himself and started wondering how many times he had come to this place.

"Ahh Green Hill Zone… the place where all my adventures started." Sonic said. "It's been attacked for 6 years and yet it's still looks beautiful."

And then the unexpected happened. The entire world began to pulse red. Everything was a different shade of red. Then one tower grew out of the floor and it had a red light glowing at the top.

Sonic then smirked before he ran towards that tower.

"Oh Egghead, will you ever learn?" Sonic said as he shot forwards at incredible speeds.

Sonic then reached the tower in now time and when he got close to the tower a door opened for him and he ran straight in.

Sonic then noticed no traps what so ever and a staircase to the top so he ran up the stairs.

Eventually when he reached the top he saw a red sphere sitting on a podium.

~0000~

Nightwing grabbed the sphere…

~0000~

Sonic grabbed the sphere…

~00000~

There was a bright flash of red light that blinded everyone and when the light died down there were only two people left in the room. Gwen Tennyson and Max Tennyson. Ben, Nightwing and Katara had vanished… and so had the artefact.
