The group met in an abandoned warehouse. "What are we doing in this awful place?" Gwen asked.

"Oh, come on." Ben said. "We fight battles in places like this all the time."

"Yeah, but never anything like this."

"Hate to say it, but he's got a point." Kevin said.

"Who's side are you on anyway?"

"Does it really matter?"

"Guys, this is not the right time." Ben told them. "If you want to argue, fine."

"He's right, we're here because…" Verdona paused. "Wait, why are we here?"

"Shh!" Gwen whispered, there were a group of Forever Knights a few feet away.

"Head for cover!" Ben whispered.

"No need." Verdona turned the whole group as well as herself invisible. The group snuck out the back for a short period of time.

"Why turn all of us invisible?" Ben asked once they got outside.

"I thought we weren't supposed to be seen." Everyone groaned.

"Verdona, how are we supposed to find out how bad Gwen's power control is if we sneak back out of the building?" Ben asked.

"Yeah, she could end up in real trouble someday." Kevin added.

"Oh, nothing's ever been that bad." Verdona told them. "She might be overreacting but…"

"Guys, come on!" Gwen said. "Are we doing this or are we just going to sit around outside?"

"Does she always take charge?" Verdona asked.

"Runs in the family." Ben said, walking right by her. The group had re-entered the building. "Verdona, stay hidden. We don't want them to attack you." She remained off to the side.

The Forever Knights had spotted them. The two groups began to fight each other. For some reason, Ben couldn't activate the Omnitrix. "What's wrong?" Gwen asked.

"I don't know." Ben called back. "It's been acting like this since our last battle, after I made that energy wave."

"Just improvise!" She called. He picked up a crowbar and rushed over to help out Kevin. Suddenly, it happened again. Gwen was battling as she normally did, when she felt a surge of power. The Knights backed off in fear and retreated.

Verdona ran out of her position and saw what was happening. "Oh, my." She said. "This is worse than I thought."

Gwen had taken on her Anodite form. "Those guys won't get away!"

"Gwen, stop!" The guys ran over and tried to restrain her.

"Whoa, what happened?" Ben asked. This was the first time he'd seen his cousin like this.

"Gwen, the fight's over. Let it go." Kevin told her. But she was too strong for them. In another surge of power, the guys were forced to the ground.

Ben groaned as he tried to get up. Verdona checked to make sure they were okay. "Verdona, what's happening?"

"I can't explain right now." Verdona said. "You wouldn't believe me. We have to find some way to get her back to her human form."

"How are we supposed to do that?" Ben asked.

"Right now it would seem the only way would to be to force it." Verdona said.

"You better stay out of my way!" Gwen said. Ben walked over and raised his hand. A second later, it came into contact with the side of her face. Verdona and Kevin looked in surprise. Ben stood there, staring at his hand. He seemed just as surprised as they did.

"Ow!" Gwen returned to her human form and put her hand her cheek. Everyone continued staring at shock.

"Gwendolyn, do you remember anything after you transformed?" Verdona asked.

"No, I don't remember anything." Gwen told them. "Except for this pain."

"Gwen…" Ben started.

"Please, just leave me alone for a while." Gwen said, running off. The others just stared after her, not knowing what to do anymore.
