Ben's Harem
Chapter 11: Temporary Farewell & Awquard Family
It was a mainly quite night... Except for the fact that a man who seems like a mainly rotting corpse ran through the roofs, from a small team of heroes.
"Get back here clown!" called Kevin who had absorbed the concrete from the rooftops and was wearing it on his body. Ben was currently transformed into Wildvine as he, his fiance Gwen a d Kevin gave chase to Zombozo
In unison he and Isis extended their arms, wrapping them around the clowns legs and yanked him towards Kevin and Selene. Zombozo screamed as he was pulled towards the power group "Not again!" yelled the zombie clone who was knocked unconscious by a concrete punch and slash from Kevin and Selene.
Gwen waved her hand and he was wrapped in banda of pink mana
"Oh yea! Who rocks? We rock!" Wildvine cheered as he flashed and reverted to Ben
"Easy there Tennyson. Don't want your head to float away." grinned Kevin putting a pair of handcuffs on Zombozo
"Calm down. He's just celebrating." Isis stated
Kevin shrugged while Gwen lifted the criminal up and handed him over to the plumbers who took him away in one of their armored vehicles. "Well... this is it." Gwen sighed
"What do you mean?" asked Ben.
"Todays the day Tennyson. In two hours were off." Kevin sighed
"What? You mean we won't be able to see each other again?" Ben yelled in panick making the others facepalm
"Ben. Todays the day Kevin and I need to leave so I can get to college." Gwen deadpanned making Ben remember. He had been so caught up for the last few days that he'd forgotten
"Well still, this means we won't be able to hang out like we usually did." replied Ben.
"I'll see you in a few weeks." Gwen said as she hugged him while while Kevin went off to grab his car where Krystal was waiting
"Yea." Ben sighed as he hugged her back just as Kevin came around the corner in his car
Getting out of the car Kevin walked to the back doors and opened them to show Krystal hugging the seats tightly. With a sigh Kevin grabbed her and started to pull "Let go of my car Krystal!"
"No! I don't want you two to fly away!" Krystal nearly cried making Kevin stop
"Krystal. We won't be gone for forever. We are just going somewhere else for two or so years. But we will call and visit when we can." Gwen soothed
"Really?" Krystal asked as she slowly came out of the car
"Promise." Gwen smiled
"Good luck." Isis bowed
"Have fun." Selene added
"Same to you two. Look after my cousin." Gwen smiled as the three had a quick hug
"See ya Tennyson." Kevin smiled as he held out his hand
Ben smiled and shook his head "See you brother." Ben said simply
"Yea." Kevin smiled back before the two had a man hug
"Go on cuz. Just... dont change your image." Ben smiled as he pulled himself from the hug and turned to Gwen
"Promise." Gwen smiled as the two cousins hugged, remembering all the fun times they've had since they where 10. Since Ben found the original Omnitrix
"Bye bye!" called Krystal as Kevin and Gwen got in Kevin's car and drove off.
"I' really gonna miss them." Ben sighed
In the background Krystal was fiddled with her Omnitrix out of sight of her three parents
"Come on, I want to try a new alien." muttered Krystal talking to the AI in her watch.
"No." Trixi replied "All but the current ones are locked."
"It'll be okay My Pharaoh." Isis smiled
Ben smiled, but looked behind them and saw Krystal had transformed into her vulpimancer form
Vulpanacer-Krystal began to run around with her tounge hanging out. She was running all over the place, panting and slobering
"Calm down Pup." Selene smiled as she shock her head
Vulpamancer-Krystal turned her head around to 'look' at Selene and ran into a wall
"Ooh, she might need some help." replied Ben turning into Wildmutt to help her out.
Volpimancer-Krystal whimpered as she pulled herself up. Wildmutt rubbed his head next to hers to comfort her. Volpimancer-Krystal whimpered lightly as she rubbed her head back against Wildmutts
"What did she call that form again?" Selene asked
"K9." Isis said simply
"Awww." cooed Selene at the moment Ben and Krystal were began to make several noises and tied pointing at the gills on his neck while pointing at K9's neck at the same time.
K9 nodded a bit as she took a deep breath and tried to focus. Slowly shebegan to make her way towards Isis and Selene and managed to make it to them without fail... Until she comically tripped and crashed at their feet as the Omnitrix flashed red and she reverted to normal
Isis and Selena helped her right just as Ben reverted back to normal."Good try sweetie, you'll get it eventually." comforted Ben patting Krystal on the head.
Krystal groaned as she rubbed her head "That hurt. Owie."
"Heh, I still can't believe the way your parents acted when they met Krystal." replied Isis.
"Yea." Ben chuckled
"Or when he met us." Selene added with a chuckle
*flashback*
Ben nervously rubbed his arm as he, Krystal, Isis and Selene walked towards his house
"Calm yourself my pharaoh. If they are as kind as you said, then we won't have to worry." replied Isis holding his hand with hers.
"I... I know." Ben sighed "I... Im just scared."
"Don't worry, we'll be here with you." replied Selene patting him on the back.
"I'm exited to meet Grandpa and Grandma!" Krystal smiled Ben amiled at all of them and took a deep breath before walking up to his door and knocking. Soon his mother answered and smiled at seeing him.
"Ben! It's so nice to see yo-" Sandra stopped when she caught sight of Selene, Isis, and Krystal.
"Hi! Im Krystal! Nice to meet you Grandma!" Krystal said happily
"I'm Selene. Princess of the Loboans." Selene smiled "And I am Ben's fiance."
"And I am Isis. Princess of the Theo Khafans." Isis bowed politely "And I am his other future wife."
Sandra just stood there trying to process all that while Carl happened to walk up. "Hey Ben, what's going...on?" Carl stopped his sentence when he saw Ben's fiances and daughter. "Um, would someone tell me what's going on?"
"Dad. This is Isis, Selene and Krystal. First two are my fiances the last is my daughter." Ben said quickly
Carl's eyes widened at that while Sandra seemed to finally focus. "Well...um...why don't you all come inside?" offered Sandra.
"Thank you." They said as they all slowly walked in, except Krystal ran in exitedly with a childish laugh
Carl and Sandra sat down in two chairs while Ben and the rest sat on the couch with Krystal sitting on Ben's lap."So, care to explain Ben?" suggested Carl.
"Krystal is one of the BigChill babies that flew away last year, from that event i told you about." Ben explained
Carl and Sandra remembered that and definitely had one of the most awkward talks with Ben that night."Go on."
"Isis I kinda... 'inherited'?" Ben said, asking at the end
"Thanks to the Thep Khafan DNA in the, at the time, Omnitrix he was able to battle my reble fiance and he won, and as per tradition my marriage passed from him to Ben." Isis explained
"So your saying our son 'won' you?" asked Sandra not liking the sound of that.
"No! He won the RIGHT to marry me. If he wanted to, he could stop it. And same for me." Isis said quickly to cool the tenshion
"Hmm, alright. But what about you, Selene?" asked Sandra.
"He is my mate. Basically my perfect match. My one and only." Selene explained
Meanwhile Krystal was messing around with the Omnitrix, thinking that if she turned it right she might unlock more cool aliens and be more like her Daddy
"Mate?" asked Carl with a raised eyebrow.
"You know... kinda like with animales and everything..." Ben blushed as he rubbed the back of his neck
"As i said. He is my prefect match. My one and only. No other would do." Selene explained
Carl and Sandra whispered to each other an nodded before turning to them. "Ben, could I have a moment with your fiances and daughter?"
"And let's have a little talk Ben." said Carl standing up with Ben doing the same.
Ben gulped "Er... sure Dad." He got up and followed his dad out of the room. Meanwhile the girls where still with Sandra
"Don't worry you two. I just wanted to chat. Now, I'm not bothered by this considering my son has faced numerous aliens trying to save his home. And it has crossed my mind that he might meet that special girl, even she or them happened to be aliens."
"That is good to hear Mrs Tennyson." Isis sighed
Krystal was still preocupied with her Omnitrix which was both cute and humerous, especially because she had her tounge poking out of the side of her mouth
"Now then, I'm going to ask you two a simple question." began Sandra with a serious face which soon broke into a smile. "When can I expect grandchildren?"
Isis and Selene fell down anime style while Krystal finally got the watch to show an icon to her. "Awwwww! Its the one like Miss Helen! I wanted a new one!" Krystal pouted
"Be patient Krystal." Trixi said Isis got up carefully
"Krystal is here Mrs Tennyson." Isis said quickly
"Yea! She should be enough for you to spoil for a few years before im old enough to enter my breeding cycles." Selene pouted
"I'm just kidding. I'm just so happy my boy has two girls with him. Now I know he'll have a happy future." smiled Sandra.
"Hero time!" shouted Krystal like her dad before she pressed down on the watch and transformed. When the flash of green faded away she has became one of XLR8's and Helen'a species and she looked just like 10 year old Ben's except the black was more dark blue and the white, as well as the green, where pink and shebwas slimmer. "Wahoo!" Krystal cheered as she started racing around the house at super speed "This is so cool!" She then tripped on the table leg as she re-entered the room and nearly hit the TV "Sorry Grandma!"
"Be careful dear!" called Sandra worried of her grandchild.
now... let's see what Ben and Carl are doing while we wait for Krystal to slow down."So dad, what is it?" asked Ben.
"I wanted to let you know that I'm not mad, but I'm not gonna be quiet. I can't stop you from being a hero, and who to date. So all i can do is have faith in you that you're doing the right thing." replied Carl.
"I know Dad. And I am. Trust me... I need this. If... if i have people like them... I won't be scared of them being hurt so much. Or that my life might scare them off. Or of their family hating me and my actions." Ben explained
Carl smiled at the answer and patted his son on the back. "That's my boy. Now come on, I've learned it's not nice to leave the woman waiting." replied Carl as they headed back to the living room.
Krystal was still in her Kinceleran form, running around and giggiling
"Shes just like Ben at that age." Sandra sighed
"I go this." replied Ben. "Krystal! Stop running around the house!" yelled Ben to get his daughter's stopped where she was and soon reverted back to her human form.
"Sorry Daddy." Krystal muttered sadly as she looked down at her feet guilty
"It's alright. But remember: no running around in the house, especially at your grandparents, and especially not when you transform." informed Ben patting her on the head.
"Okay Daddy." Krystal nodded
"So... does that mean your planning on moving out?" Carl asked worryingly
"Not yet Dad." Ben said "But I've got my own family now. I need to look after them. And I need a place with room for all of us as well as any guests we might have.." Carl and Sandra couldn't but smile at their sons maturity
"I might be able to help out with that." came Max's voice as he came walking in.
"Grandpa!" Ben, Isis and Krystal all called, the youngest running and hugging the old man
"Dad!" Carl called
"Yeah it's me. I was coming over when I heard Ben's little problem. I might have a solution." replied Max returning the hug with Krystal.
"What is it Grandpa?" Ben aaked hopefully
"Well there is a small house in Undertown. I hear the rents real cheap and it might be enough space for you all." replied Max.
"Yea... that might work." Ben said as he put his hand on his chin "But it's so far away from a Mr Smoothie!"
"Ben..." Carol groaned as he facepalmed
"Mr Smoothie?" Krystal asked as she tilted her head
Ben smacked his head at forgetting that his daughter had never heard of it. "Krystal, I'm gonna show you the best place in town." replied Ben picking Krystal up on his shoulders and heading out.
"Ben!" Everyone yelled in annoyance
"What? I'm just gonna show my daughter the greatness that is smoothies!" called Ben as he headed towards the best place to get a good beverage
*half an hour later*
Ben and Krystal where sitting at a table slurping up the Smoothies "What did I tell ya?" asked Ben smiling at seeing his daughter happily drink her smoothie.
"Yummy!" yelled Krystal finishing up her third smoothie since they got there.
"Thats my girl." Ben smiled as he ruffled her hair softly just before they finished the their latest one "Want another one?"
"Yes please!" cheered Krystal feeling her first sugar rush happening. Ben smiled as he got up and went to the counter only for it to suddenly explode
"NOOOOOO!" Both father and daughter yelled in terror as they fell to their knees
The culprit was none other than Dr. Animo who had several large gorillas that seemed to have the tails of komodo dragons. Doctor Animo laughed as he began to monologue "It is I, Doctor Animo! And i shall..."
But he was interupted by the voices of the enradged Tennysons "No one messes with out smoothies!" yelled Ben and Krystal as they slammed down on their watches and transformed. Ben became Diamondhead while Krystal transformed into K9.
"Oh no..." Doctor Animo muttered as he pissed himself while both Diamondhead and K9 charged with a battle cry
*flashback end*
Ben gave a happy sigh as the thought passed "Now that's one way to let off some steam." smiled Ben at the memory.
"Yea." Krystal nodded
"Well... lets go home." Isis smiled
"Okay." Ben nodded "Too bad we have to stay with my parents for a bit while I eran the money to buy the place for several months so we dont have to worry too much." Ben sighed sadly
"At least Max is offering you that position that will more than double your pay." Selene smiled
"Yea. I'm just annoyed that they haven't told me what it is yet." Ben grumbled softly
"Don't worry my pharaoh, I'm sure you'll be able to handle it." reassured Isis.
"Yea. I know." Ben smiled as he leaned firwards and kissed Isis' cheeck area making her eye smile
"Daddy? Can we get Smoothies on the way back?" Krystal asked exitedly making Ben smile wider
"NO!" Both Isis and Selene ordered
"Awww." replied Ben and Krystal in unison disappointed. The family of four then headed home, the father and daughter pouting a bit
And there we go!
K9's name was suggested by 'creatremaster' in a review of chapter 9.
This was a fun and simple chapter.
But what IS that special job that will double Ben's pay? Well, it will be kinda importent.
So stau tuned for the next chapter!
