Ch 12
***The HQ***
***Mid-night***
In the prison block, there is a male shadow that is doing something with computer. Oh no, he is accessing to control system. Look like he needs to unlock every cell block in here. Where are guards? Oh poor agents, Morty and Bryk knocked out on the floor. This guy must be great in martial art enough to knock them without trick an alarm.
"Hold it right there" Big Chill yelled
He stunned from Ben's yelled. He turns and saw the new Ben team. It's consisting of Ben, Gwen, and Helen. Ben and Helen wear their usual cloth but Gwen got a new look. She is wearing a cloth that look like Gwen 10k. She also ties her hair to make a pony tail even though it still short.
They stranger tried to cover his face but it useless, they knew who they are talking with but why he did this.
"You do not need to cover your face, Brannigan" Ben said
"You knew, how?" He asked
"We checked the CCTV record and paper work" Helen said "You and your team captured Trumbipular and put him in his cell."
"But you did not lock him properly, you use a wrong hand cuff to lock him" Ben explained "That's why he escaped from the cell before it lock down"
"You have no prove" He objected
"Truth, we cannot find an evidence to arrest you" Ben said "That's why we were waiting for you."
"We could not believe you are going to do it again so quickly" Helen said
Suddenly, he pull his pistol and aim at Ben but there is someone who faster than him.
"Boom"
Gwen shoots her mana shot at his hand. He dropped it and screamed. She did not want to kill him. She just needs to disarm him. She prepared to shoot again just in case Brannigan does something stupid.
"Give up Brannigan. We are more than you" Ben said
"Never!" He yelled and tried to grab his pistol.
Unfortunately, he is frozen from Big Chill breath.
"Why didn't he give up?" Ben said
Helen and Gwen is checking the computer while Ben trying to wake two big guys up.
"Hey, Morty and Bryk wake up" He said "Are you okay?"
"What happen?" Morty said
"Brannigan knocks you guys" He explained "How?"
"Brannigan?" Bryk said "No sir, we were fighting with a woman."
"?" Ben surprised
"Arkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk" Helen and Gwen screamed from the electric shock
Ben turned and saw they collapsed and there is a female figure stood on their unconsciousness body. Even though he could see her back only but he knew her specie, she is Sotoraggain but he never saw him before.
She turns and face with Ben. He surprised how she looks, she look similar to Eight Eight but she taller than her. Actually, she might taller than any Sotoraggain he faced. Her armor is coating in shining black color. When she hit the light, her reflection show how her body perfectly. Her big chest, slender waist and perfect round ass are good enough to make men submitted to her. She has a red spider mark on her fore head which relate to her extra eight spider robot legs behind her back.
Ben wants to charge her but he concern Helen and Gwen safety. He is watching her. She did not do anything, she just looks at Ben like she wonders or thinks something.
"Hey, who are you?" He asked "Let's them go"
She did not say a word. She still looks at him.
"Oh, I forgot. You cannot talk my language" He mocked "How about hand language?"
"You do not need to try so hard like that, Mr Benjamin" She said
Oh my god, she could listen and speak his language, this really make him surprised. His eyes and mouth are opened widely. She giggled and walked toward him slowly and swaggers. She leave Helen and Gwen without harm them. The reason he's frightening and sweating is her eight legs. It's moving like it has a life.
"You can talk!" He surprised "Who are you?"
She giggled and walk around him and said "I can do more than talk. People called me "Deathly Nine"."
"Good to see you, Deathly Nine" He replied "I believed you knew me already"
"Ha ha, I like your spirit, Ben" She laughed "No wonder why my little brothers and little sister cannot capture you, I could see through you."
"Oh yeah, what do you see?" He said
"You want to know" She replied "I see. I see. I see MY PREY"
She charges him with her whole body. Ben become intangible and passes through her. He left her in the frozen tomb.
"Piece of …" before he finished his sentence, he heard a frozen tomb is breaking.
He turns and sees she is tearing it apart with her extra spider leg. He need to freeze her again but no. She uses one of it to shoot at him. It's not a normal bullet but electric bullet. It did not hurt him must when it hit but it made him paralyzed a little by little.
He needs to turn the table. He sees an emergency alarm but it behind her and his time is running out. It's not enough to be intangible and sneak behind her. He needs to be another alien but whom. He does not know what her spider legs could do. If he turns randomly, the result will be the worst.
She's still busy with the frozen tomb. Ben decided to turn back to himself and hided. From where he is hiding, he could see everything included her. Gwen and Helen are still unconsciousness but they might waken up if he holds her a little longer.
Finally, she released from the frozen tomb, she look around to find him.
"Oh Ben, come out come out where ever you are" She said while walking around.
"Whammmm"
She used one of her spider leg piece through the metal box and tears it apart. It makes a metal box look like a jelly.
"You are not here" She said seductively "Let's see behind the second curtain."
She found him. He was hiding behind the metal box which near the exit door. He rolls and rolls again. His omnitrix is ready but she kept attacking him without a rest. She hunts him down until dead end.
"Damn it." He thought
"I am going to enjoy this moment as long as I wanted" She smirked and licked her lip.
"Boom Boom Boom" "Phew Phew Phew"
She was attacked from behind. She turned and saw Gwen and Helen are shooting at her with everything they got. Gwen used mana shot while Helen shot her blaster. Unfortunately, they could not piece her armor. She just stands there and takes damage.
"Is this your best shot?" She yelled "I am so disappointed"
She indulges in her armor. She confident too much and forget her enemy, Ben. The green light was bright behind her. She knew she made a huge mistake. She turned and saw Diamondhead who glaring at her.
He punches her face. It's really work, she fly through Gwen and Helen and hit with the wall. They run to him and prepare to fight. That's right, she is not give up yet. She shoots a poison dart from her spider legs.
"Holy shit, get behind me" He yelled and created diamond wall to protect them.
"Watch out" Gwen yelled
Deathly Nine is coming fast with her jet pack. She is going to charge them while diamond wall still there. She must be crazy.
"Poooooow" She really gets through it. She charges at Ben only. She hit him with her full speed against wall.
"Araghhhhhh" Ben yelled with painful.
She is going to stab him with giant needle.
"Goodbye hero" She said
Fortunately, Gwen cast spell finished on time. It's a compelling spell. The purple chains come out of the portal and tie it up. Its stop her needle before stab Ben's heart.
"Not so fast" Gwen said "Helen, now."
Helen is going to shoot her blaster again but this time she aims for her spider joint.
"Phewwwww" She shot
"Booom" One of it explored
"How about that?" Ben mocked "Arghhhhhhhh"
He yelled and slashes her with diamond sword. At least her armor cannot against diamond, he succeed to slide her hand. She released him and step back. He almost cut her hand but no it still attach to her arm. He believed she cannot use it anymore.
"Umm, there are some upgrades I need to do with my armor" She said like nothing happen. "I really want to kill you now, Ben"
She smirked and releases a smoking gas from one of her spider leg. It's make a blind condition to them except her. She uses her bionic eyes to look for her prey. She saw Gwen and Helen who stand where they are but she ignored to strike them. She is heading to Ben who tried to find his team.
Ben wants to call them but that's mean give a position to the enemy. Therefore, he stands still and listens. He feels something. It's Gwen. He could know where she are since their soul connected. He also believed Helen is staying with her. Now, where is Deathly Nine?
She is sneaking behind him. She really want to kill even she took so many damage. Then, she heard something.
"Beep Beeep Beeeeep" the alarm activated
Deathly Nine look around and found Helen just presses the emergency alarm. Now, every plumber in the building is coming here with a full weapon. She did not have a chance to escape, right?
"Surrender now" Diamondhead said "You cannot escapes"
She laughed and shoots her mini rocket at the ceiling. She made a hole that large enough for her to escapes.
She strikes him with spider legs. His head is spinning. She is really could escape from them. She climbs up and walks in the hole but she leaves a message before she left.
"You will see me again, Ben 10" She mocked "This time, I am just pay a visit and play with yours but next time, I am going to kill you"
She left with laughing. Ben and his team accepted they totally defeated. He believed this is not her full potential.
At the same time as back up arrived, Ben asked them to bring Morty and Bryk to the hospital and lock Brannigan up in the highest security area. He wants to interrogate him tomorrow. The medic team asked them to stay here first. They want to check them.
After checked, they said they can go. Ben got a minor injury while Gwen and Helen have a minor electric wound. They are so lucky after fight with her. Ben said he is going to deliver them.
***Mark DX 10***
They are heading to Ben's home. Ben is thinking about what happen today while Gwen and Helen are talking something else. Tonight, it's too serous for them to think, they want to forget about it for now.
"Hey Ben, do you want to buy Mr. Smoothies" Helen asked softly
"…" He did not hear her
"Ben Ben Honey" She called him again and again
Helen is going to cry and mad. Her boyfriend does not care or listen to her. Fortunately, Gwen was there and she knew how to call attention when Ben acts like this. She slaps his head. It's really work, he stop the car and look back at Gwen
"What?" He wondered
"Look what have you done, Mr." She said and point at Helen who is going to cry
"Helen, I am sorry" He said
"It's okay Ben" She replied "I know you worried about what happen today but I want to cheer you up"
"She said we should go to Mr. Smoothies" Gwen explained "You should be happy to have her as future wife. None of your girlfriend ever invites you to Mr. Smoothies."
"Okay, we are going to Mr. Smoothies" He said "My treat"
"Duu, you are our husband" Gwen exclaimed "beside, you are the only one who got the highest salary, right?"
"How did you know?" He wondered
"Helen told me" She said
"Sorry, she said it is important for our kids future plan" Helen explained
"…" He could find a word to say
"That's not all, Helen." Gwen said "We also need to think about our own house, car, life insurance, retirement, and etc."
"Gwen, you think too much" Ben objected "We still have time to think about that"
"So, why do you not think now?" She said "And do not try to save some money without told us. We will find it and you are going to pay the interest."
"Yes, there is no secret among us" Helen yelled
Ben really wants to cry but it's made his heart feel warmth. This could say another feeling when you have a happy family.
***Somewhere on earth***
Deathly Nine is heading to her hideout. It's an old factory. She walk in there and looking for someone.
"Oh you are back" Male voice said "You look pretty awful. Take a seat, I will fix you."
She sat on the chair that looks similar to dentist's chair.
"Tell me what happen" He asked
"Let's say I got a minor problem but I got what our boss wanted" She said "Doc, make me stronger, I need to get stronger to beat them"
"Relax, I am fixing you" He said "I can make you stronger but you need to rest first."
"Beep Beep Beep"
"I believed our boss just calling us" He said and opened the screen
"Did you get what I wanted" Female voice said from the screen
"Its right here boss and trust me nobody know about it" She said while waved USB
"What about Brannigan" She asked
"He did not have a chance to say anymore." She replied
"Good, now we can move second step" She laughed
