"Analias!" Ben cried out, watching the Anadite be swept off her feet and fall to the ground. He wasn't gonna stand by anymore, Ben was going to fight. He ejected the omnitrix. Turning through the unfamiliar aliens, Ben stopped on a rectangular headed alien. "Might as well!" He shouted before slamming down his omnitrix.

The rectangular headed alien was short. No taller than 3 feet. And it had two long antenna. Which kept hitting Ben in his eyes. He pushed one to the side of his face. "Benjamin!" Ben turned around to the call of his name. "Benjamin, I could use your help!" Analias was still in the heat of battle with the purple aliens. Her hands and eyes were glowing blue.

"R-Right!" A pipsqueak-ish voiced Ben chirped. He ran to her aid, attempting to use whatever powers the mite-like alien possessed.

Which he soon figured out were psychic. Ben raised his little hand in Analias' direction. He focused on the purple alien, willing it to be lifted off the ground. The alien soon started to float. Ben mentally celebrated, as he threw the alien he had into one that was attacking Analias. The two toppled on top of each other, out cold. "That was mystical!" Ben yelped. "That's it- this guy is one MysticMite." Ben giggled quietly to himself before focusing on the problem at hand.

Soon Ben and Analias had the problem under control. The purple aliens were loosing the fight. "Retreat! Let's get out of here before we're killed!" the leader shouted. The few remaining purple aliens agreed, following their leader and abandoning the weapons.

They fled.

There was but one other person left. The blonde girl.

"Who are you?" Ben asked, reverting back into his human form, he walked up to the girl. She turned her head. "Answer me!" The brunette demanded.

"I'm Reggie Hunt." The girl replied. "But don't take orders from people so you better stop bossing me around." She poked Ben in his chest, setting him back a step. Reggie glanced about the pier. She smirked. "Thanks to your little tiff with the Memmorolas I have tech to sell another day. So I'll be packing up and leaving now." She picked up any stray blasters and placed them in the open crate, and then bolted it shut. She braced herself, and then proceeded to lift the crate with one hand. Lugging it over to her truck, she threw open the back door, and tossed the crate in. "Later, Squirt." She went for the driver's door, but Ben grabbed her wrist.

"No way. You heard Analias- this tech is too advanced for Earth!" Ben pulled her away from the door, but Reggie slipped out of his grip. She ran to the edge of the pier.

"I already told you!" She closed her eyes, seeming to focus on collecting energy. "I don't take orders from anyone." Her arms started to change, starting from her fingertips up her fingers and over her elbow. She turned into a clear substance. Ben could see straight through her- literally. But when the sunlight got caught in her, she projected a prism of rainbows- nearly blinding Ben with the light.

Ben jumped back. He didn't even look at his omnitrix when he ejected the face and slammed down on an alien. He didn't know any of them, so he didn't see the point. He suddenly felt cold. Really cold. His body felt like it was buried in straight ice. He looked at his hands and he realized; it was. He was ice. "It's time for you to chill, lady." Ben cooed. He then laughed at his own pun.

The Prism being didn't laugh, she only charged right at a distracted Ben. Analias managed to put up a wall in front of him. She pushed the wall forward into Reggie, pushing her over. "Benjamin! This is not the time for puns!" She said to him, coming up from behind. "Time to fight; now turn your attention to the Lumininian!"

Jumping into the air, Ben extended his hand, pointing his palm at Reggie. "On it." He nodded, shooting a steady beam of ice at Reggie. She started to crystallize in ice.

Sadly his attempt failed to keep her locked up for long. Squirming about trying to free herself Reggie's eyes began to glow a brightly colored blue. "Just cool it lady." Ben chirped out, only to realize that she was conducting electricity. "Don't you know that won't work?" he asked her.

"Hah, stupid boy, if you weren't the "Great Ben Ten" I would've mistaken you for a lower life form." she smirked and began to laugh. The ice around her lithe body had begun to crack and chip away. She was breaking free from the cold cage Ben had put her in.

"Ben she's breaking free, this Lumininian has different powers than the one's I've encountered." Analias shouted.

Ben was trapped, he didn't know what to do anymore. The girl was breaking free and he couldn't figure out the workings of a new alien so soon. There was a loud bang and Looking up Ben noticed the girl was free.

"Is that all you've got?" She asked. Ben didn't move from his spot, he was trying to think up a plan. "What, don't tell me you got cold feet?" she laughed at her own pun.

Frowning Ben charged her, only he was allowed to make puns about his alien forms. "You're seriously getting on my nerves." he yelled thrusting his arm forward in an attempt to punch Reggie.

"Please, like that will work." Reggie exclaimed stopping the blow with her own hand. Ben smirked.

"I was hoping you'd do that."

"Wha-" Her arm began to freeze on contact with Ben's hand. She released his hand immediately trying to unfreeze her arm.

Quickly Ben created a diversion by firing ice at her in order to freeze the ground. "Analias!" Ben shouted.

Analias came to his aid firing mana disks at the girl. One after another until smoke filled the area. Analias stopped and soon Ben did too. "Did we get her?" Ben asked before feeling his sense go on edge. "Analias watch out!" Ben screamed.

A large mass of electricity fired through the air wrapping around Analias' body before dragging her into the ground. Once the dust cleared Ben ran to her aid. Reggie was nowhere to be seen.

"Ana! Ana are you alright?" Ben pulled her limp body into his arms. "Please speak to me." He heard coughing and slowly Analias opened her eyes.

"Ben! She's underground watch out!" She screamed. Ben nodded.

"Look you have to get out of here, you're hurt and need to rest. I'll take care of this chick on my own." Ben smiled a reassuring smile, but Analias knew that no amount of smiling would help in this fight. Ben was out of sync and hadn't practiced his fighting in so long.

"Ok." Analias nodded and gathered enough energy to fly off.

"Alright Reggie, it's just me and you." Ben punched his hand with his fist. "Let's do this."

He heard laughing and tried to sense where it was coming from. Suddenly electrical wires spewed from the ground, Ben tried jumping to avoid them before getting his leg caught in one. Electricity ran through his body wracking it with pain. He grabbed the wire and froze it, taking this as a chance to break the flow of electricity going through it. Frowning he tried to get a lock on Reggie's position underground, he waited for another attack. This time he felt a shock wave moving from a feet away.

"Found you." he whispered to himself. Punching his fist into the ground he released a wave of ice freezing everything. A sudden crash and up from the ground Reggie flew, trying to avoid being frozen.

"No fair!" she complained rubbing her hands together. She smiled devilishly and sent a ball of energy at Ben, who barely avoided it.

Jumping into the air Ben shot shards of ice at the girl. Once they both touched the ground Reggie charged at him. Ben tried his best to block her punches, sometimes failing. He focused on trying to avoid anything with a charge to it. His mind reeled with other attack possibilities that the new alien might have. Trying to think of a way out he simply pictured himself as a block of ice. Although that didn't work he did however conjure up needles of ice that began to protrude from his arms and legs as if he were some sort of porcupine, and just like a porcupine he could fire them in many different directions.

From the sidelines Analias watched for what seemed like forever, until her senses picked up something new in the area. Looking around she noticed a small isle in the lake. Squinting her eyes she noticed a shadowed figure sitting out just watching it seemed. This piqued her interest, who would sit and watch a fight taking place unless it was someone who didn't want to be found. She smiled, one name flashed through her mind and it just had to be him. He had been gone for so long and poor Ben was worried sick, now was her chance to investigate.

Analias had gotten to the other side of the lake. To the small isle situated in the center of the lake. She sensed someone here. And just a few moments ago she actually saw someone here.

"Come out." She said softly.

She noticed the jet black hair. She almost had a heart attack. "Is he alright?" The raven haired teenager asked.

Analias smiled. "Yes. He's fine. But are you Kevin Levin?"

"What do you mean?"

"Are you fine?"

He stiffened. "Of course I'm fine. Why the hell would you ask?"

The Anadite started to giggle. She floated up to Kevin, putting her nose to his. "Because I don't believe you are."

"Who are you anyway? Why should I waste my time listening to you?" Kevin turned away from her, blushing only slightly.

"I don't think you're as bad as you make people think." Analias started slowly. "I think that deep down, you're just a sweet and sensitive man." She put her finger to his chest, causing him to look down at her finger wearily.

"Don't fuck with my brain, lady." The mutant wore a deep frown.

"Benjamin is worried about you." Analias turned from him. Looking back at the pier where Ben and Reggie were still fighting. "Worried sick. He's all by himself now. Gwen left and-"

"Gwen left?" Kevin looked into the Anadite's chocolate eyes. "Where'd she go?"

"Anadine. To train with Verdona."

Kevin seemed to shift uneasily. "He still has Julie. He'll always have Julie."

"He and Julie broke up." She saw Kevin conceal a smile. "But he's by himself."

The mutant frowned. "No. No, he's not." Kevin picked up Analias' hands. "Protect him for me." Kevin spoke softly. Too softly. This was very un-Kevin Levin-y. "Keep him occupied and make him happy for me. I'll come back for him."

"Will You?"

"I already told you, Anadite." Kevin said, removing his hands from hers and zipping his leather jacket up.

"Don't fuck with my brain." And with that, Kevin left. How he got away; Analias would never know. But he was gone.

And Analias didn't know when she'd see him next.


So, Loiselle wrote the fight scene between Ben and the second of our three important OCs. Reggie Hunt is a member of an alien race that Loiselle created. She's fun, really. ;D

I forgot to mention that another one of our aliens was here! It's Deep Freeze! An Ice-orientated alien that Loiselle created. Just thought I'd tell ya.

And we get to see Kevin for the first time! :D
