Hello everybody, so here we are, the moment where we see the entire facility gets raided by Ben and the Plumbers. Sit back, and get ready to see Kakuzawa get what's coming to him :)
To RonaldM40196867: Mission time! She is determined as heck! Ik, and it looks amazing :) I have had it planned for a long time.
To keybladelight: It will be, once he meets the voice one again. Idk about all of that, and for Sora to appear in Smash? God that would be amazing...
To the mysterious Mr.E: Thanks :)
Yinyang2021: I have started Demon Slayer.
To gamecubenut: Yep, having a hero as determined as Ben is contagious lol. Yes, but it might not happen till after the fight between Ben and the DNA Voice.
To Yinyang2021: Never seen Promised Neverland, and Hunter X Hunter...I don't know...
To Guest: Yeppers :)
To Mah Paiton: Thank you :) Two endings? Not really. My only complaint about the manga is...well...some of the characters being...idk how to describe it.
To Guest: Well It's been a while since I've seen Ben 10, so I'm just going as I remember him.

Diclonius Institute
Kakuzawa was looking out into his office, the sky looking dark a bit, as he could hear thunder roaring a bit into the night sky, and he was a bit annoyed, why? Because he had not heard back from Nousou for a few hours now...where the hell was he?
"He better not have gotten killed…" He thought with anger. "Because it would suck if he did…." His mind then went to his daughter, and he sighed. "Pretty soon….very soon.." He said as he closed his eyes and smiled a bit, images of what the new world will be like...under him.
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP
Kakuzawa then opened his eyes a bit as hearing an alarm go off. "What the hell?" He asked. "Not another breakout.." He growled in anger as he won over his intercom to get someone. "What the hell is going on down there?" He asked. "There better not have been another breakout! We can't afford to lose any more of them!" He said.
"No sir!" A terrified voice said. "There are a bunch of people that broke in the front!" the voice said. "And Lucy's with them!" It said, making Kakuzawa widen his eyes with surprise. "And also that boy in green….and a few other people...who don't look human..and Number 7!"
Kurama then widened his eyes and got a wicked grin on his face. "Ok then." He said in a calm tone. "Just stay calm and get all out soldiers and kill them all, but keep Lucy and the boy alive! I don't care what you do to Number 7!"
"R-right sir!" The voice said as it hung up. Kakuzawa then calmly went to a part of his office and he pushed on a button that would take him down to his grotto.
"It seems like my time is beginning to come sooner than expected." He said with a dangerous grin...this was going to be interesting.
Meanwhile, outside the Institute.
The Plumber ships had dropped off Ben and everybody else at the front. Ben was in his normal attire, but everyone else was wearing protective suits that would protect them from bullets and vector attacks.
Kouta was wearing one of these suits and had a blaster with him and was staring at the large building in front of him. So this was the place, the place where Lucy and Nana were both tortured...now he had a reason to be angry. Yuka, Mayu, Nozomi were a bit hesitant, these girls never had done anything like this before...and this was...pretty big. Nana could see that they were all pretty nervous, but she would make sure that no hard would come to them...not any of them at all.
"Alright, here's how we'll do things!" Max said to them. "A few of them will go in there and try to get all the Diclonius girls out and take down any of the scientists and soldiers inside. Ben will go and find the boss!"
"But how are we going to get them?" Scout asked. "I mean those girls will most likely kill us all!"
"Kurama told me that the reason Nana didn't kill was that he actually talked to her and treated her with kindness. If we can try to be nice to these girls..possibly get to them, they might listen." Max said as he faced Nana, who nodded her head with a small smile.
Then an alarm sounded off as a bunch of soldiers then ran out, armed with guns and other weapons, and pointed them at the group, then a lead scientist then came out and gave them a look. "All of you have three seconds to step off the property, or else we shall show-" but he then stopped as soon as he saw Nana and Lucy, and he freaked out. "THEY GOT LUCY AND NUMBER 7!" He shouted. "KILL THEM!" And with that, the first fight began.
As they began to shoot, Gwen then used her mana to create a giant force field to block all of the bullets surrounding the group. Lucy then glared at them and used her vectors and rather than kill them, she used them to punch or throw them aside.
Ben then used his Omnitrix to turn into Spidermonkey and he webbed all the soldiers up. The scientist then shook very frighteningly and got nervous. Spidermonkey then turned back into Ben and he glared at the scientist. "Where's Kakuzawa?" He asked with anger.
The scientist got mad. "I ain't telling you nothing you little bastard!" He sneered, Ben sighed and threw him to the ground, where he was then taken away by some plumbers.
Ben then looked at the doors right in front of him, and activated hsi Omnitrix, and turned into Four Arms. "Ding dong!" He said as he then punched the entire door down, spooking the scientists inside. "WE BROUGHT THE PARTY!" The Tetramand boomed. And that was when the riot began.
As the Plumbers were running right in, Four Arms turned back into Ben and grouped up with Lucy and the others. "Alright, I'm going to go inside and see if I can get any info about Kakuzawa, you all go...well do whatever it is you all-
"Hell no!" Lucy said to him. "I want to beat the bastards' ass myself!" She said to him. "Besides...I want to know where my brother is at." She said with some nervousness. Ben looked at her and looked at the rest.
"I'll go with you," Kouta said as Yuka, Mayu, Nozomi, and Nana nodded their heads. Ben looked at them and was pretty surprised at how they wanted to join him to do this, but nonetheless, he was happy to see that they too wished to fight with him.
"Alright then, remember what Scout said." Ben said those suits will protect you guys." Ben said as Gwen And Kevin joined him.
"Yo, Tennyson, what about us?" Kevin asked him. "You got anything for us to do?" He asked. Ben looked at him for a bit before thinking.
"Kevin, you remember that you had a rough childhood right?" Ben Asked him, making Kevin raise an eyebrow.
"You mean where I found out that my real father was actually fake, and I ran out of the house because my new stepfather that I hated ran me out due to me accidentally demolishing the place. And where I tried to kill you at certain points, even teaming up with an alien warlord that looks like the lovechild of Cthulhu? Pretty much." He said
"Wait, you did what?" Kouta and Yuka asked with shock at what he said. Making Kevin look at them with a sheepish expression.
"Long stories that I'll explain later after this shit is over." He said to them.
Ben chuckled nervously at them though. "Yeah..right….anyway, you could stay down here and try to possibly talk to them." He said. "You could tell them about your childhood and you could tell them about how you were able to find trust again after joining us and stuff," Ben said to him with a smile.
Kevin looked at him for a few minutes...before he sighed. "Fine then…"
"I'll stay with him," Gwen said. "I can try to possibly talk to these girls, and plus I don't think about their vectors and bypass my mana shield, so I should be good."
"But we still got to wear these suits though," Kevin said. "I mean They can most likely cut me in half, despite me absorbing matter."
Ben then looked at everybody. "Ok, so Lucy, Nana, Kouta, Yuka, Mayu, Nozomi, and I will go around and see if we can get any information on Kakuzawa. Kevin, you and Gwen help the others in trying to get the other Diclonii out of here." He said. "Now...are we ready?"
"Yea!" They all said in unison. And Bens mild.
"Alright, let's move!" He exclaimed and the fight was on.
Maple Inn
Paradox was watching from the corner as Kurama was sitting down in front of Nousou, Yukino, and the clones, who had their helmets taken off and we're now happy to see their 'papa'. Over the course of it all, Kurama began to explain to them what was really going on at the Institute, about Lucy's past, the DNA Voice...and about Kakuzawa's true plans.
As far as they were listening, Nousou and Yukino were...pretty shocked about it, so Kakuzawa wants to end all humanity? But..why though? And Kurama explained to them why he was doing this.
"For the longest time, we were led to believe that Lucy was the biggest threat to humanity, and even so..Kakuzawa was the one orchestrating everything," Kurama said to them. "And Lucy….while she did kill those people, we know that it wasn't;t entirely her fault.
Nousou then looked at him again. "Well yeah, but-"
"Don't you see Nousou?" Kurama asked, now a bit heated. "All of us at the Institute….we are ones to blame...we are doing this shit to those girls...and it's making them view humanity as evil….and that voice in Lucy...is taking advantage of it. We are to blame for what is going on to those poor girls." He said as he then rubbed his face, guilt and regret washing it. But then he glared at Nousou and what did he do?
BAM
Kurama gave a solid blow right to Nauseous face. "Paradox told me about you getting a sample from Mariko to make these clones….and for what you did to the other ones as well, ripping them apart for your one sick experiment!" He sneered at him. "And I know I got no right to complain since I also was in charge...but I never...I never wanted that to happen, and I regretted doing all those things….but you seemed to enjoy it and not care." He said to him.
Then the clones began to touch and feel his arms, while going 'Papa, papa' to him, making him sigh a bit and look over at Paradox. "Paradox, what are those things on their heads?" He asked. "I do not want to hear anything from Nousou."
Paradox got up and took a closer look at the girl's heads, looking at the small metal plates-like things. "Hmm, from what I can gather, these seem to be some kind of mind-controlled devices in them." He said.
"That's right," Nousou said with a proud smile. "I put them in myself so that they won't try to attack and that they will obey everything I say to them." He said this to them, but Kurama and Paradox were not too happy when he said this to them both.
"And that's supposed to make me smile?" Kurama asked with anger. "Well, it sure as hell doesn't!" He said, he then took a glance at the girls and sighed. "Is there a way to get those off and try to talk to them without being killed?"
"Luckily for us, I have a small ray gun with me," Paradox said as he got out a small gun. "It won't kill them, but it will hold them tightly, heck their vectors won't be able to cut through the barrier." He said to him with a reassuring smile.
Kurama nodded his head and he then sighed a bit as he went closer to the girls, his face was sweating a bit and his hands were trembling. This was mainly due to nervousness, would these girls immediately attack him as soon as he took them off? It was just a bit...nerve-wracking.
Alright then…" He said as he then went over and with quick motions, he began to take off part of the device, and when he did that, the girls immediately began to shake out of their stupor.
"What the…?" Diana said as she then looked around to see Kurama, Paradox, Nousou, and Yukino, and got angry. "Wait...I am regaining things now...I hate humans...I need to kill you all!" she said as she then tried to activate her vectors, but before she could, she and her other sisters were blasted by a beam, and the girls were all hoisted into the air. "What the hell is this?" Diana asked as she tried to use her vectors...but nothing happened. "Why aren't my vectors working?"
"Because my dear." Paradox said. "You and your sisters are simply inside a special little force field I made that won't allow your vectors to work." He said to her.
This left the girl angry. "Wha-WHAT?!" She asked heatedly. "Let me out, you filthy human! I'll kill you!" She said with anger. Kurama looked at her and he was reminded about how Mariko acted at the time….and if these girls really were like Mariko...he needed to try to talk to them and calm them down.
"Diana….just calm down," Kurama said to her in a calm tone of voice. But Barbara saw him and glared.
"Don't start!" She said. "I'm nothing like your daughter! Do you hear me? I am my own person!" Diana said. "The voice has told us that humans do not deserve to live! She has said that they all deserve to die!" She said.
Kurama sighed, he was expecting her to say a thing like that, and so he then looked up to them and looked at them all in the eyes. "Girls..please just calm down and hear me out, alright?" He said to them. "You aren't even capable of doing anything in there...please." He said to her.
Normally the girls wouldn't listen to another human, but due to them feeling a connection to Kurama, they decided to listen to what he had to say, but they weren't too keen on doing it though. But they were wondering why they felt so attached to him though, was it the fact that they were clones of Mariko maybe?
Diclonius Institute
"RUN LIKE HELL!" A scientist yelled as a group of them began to be escorted to a nearby room and was being barricaded by some soldiers. Ever since those weird people and Lucy came back, all hell has been breaking loose and the scientists have been running like chickens without their heads, despite the fact that no harm was going to come to them all.
And the soldiers were not doing any better, their bullets weren't working on them and most of them got zapped by those figures with weird weapons, but the soldiers didn't die, they were just knocked out.
"Jeeze, you bastards are pathetic!" Bando said as he began shooting at all the soldiers coming his way with his laser. Unfortunately, he was not allowed to kill them but to knock them out. After he was done firing, he looked at his laser…"I wonder if that old guy can get me a job as one of those Plumbers…" He thought with interest.
Meanwhile, Bens' group was running all over the place, and every time they would ask for Kakuzawa they were rejected a lot.
"I swear these guys are so unresponsive." Four Arms said as he put down a soldier who fainted at the sight.
"Maybe we should get a scientist or something," Kouta said as he was standing really close to Yuka, and was looking around. And they all looked into some of the rooms that contained several Diclonius girls, and they were not happy at seeing the girl's in this condition. "We got to try to talk to some of them!" Kouta exclaimed.
"Yea…" Ben said to him as he turned to Lucy, "Lucy, do you think you could do it?" He asked him, along with Nana. "I mean...since you are the queen, then they might be able to listen to you...and maybe Nana as well."
Nana then looked down and was thinking about what Ben was telling her. He did have a pint, after all, due to Kurama...she didn't end up like Lucy at all.
"Can you guys at least try?" Ben asked. "And the others and I can stay out here and be on guard for you." He said to them. Lucy and Nana both gave each other stone looks, not ones of distrust, but ones of some discomfort...the subject of them almost trying to kill each other back at the graveyard was still going on in their minds...but still, they wanted to do this..for Ben and for the others ones so they wouldn't suffer as they did.
"Alright then, we'll try," Nana said to Ben, and Lucy agreed. Ben didn't really know how to open the door, so he just turned into Four Arms and smashed the door right into the room.
"It seemed better to do that." The Tetremand said with a shrug as his housemates all looked at him with wide-eyed expressions.
"Ok..never make him angry!" Kouta acclaimed with a bead of sweat going down his head, and the others nodded their heads in agreement. Nana and Lucy both went inside the room, but they then looked back at the others and they all nodded their heads to offer them encouragement and support.
Nana and Lucy both looked at each other and gulped a bit nervously, as they stepped inside the room they noticed a being up and battered Diclonius chained up to the wall, she had long pink hair and had blood dripping down her head.
She looked up slowly to see the other two Diclonius and got a bit scared. "No...p-please don't kill me!" She said in a soft, scared voice, but Nana put her hands up and shushed her gently.
"No, don't worry, we aren't here to do that," Nana said in a soft tone of voice. "We are here to get you out of here." She said. This made the Diclonius girl look at her with wide-eyes, was she for real? Was she really here to get her out of here? As she turned to the door, she saw Kouta and the others and got scared.
"No!" She exclaimed. "I can't go...they will kill me!" She said with fright.
"No, no, no!" Nana said to her calmly. "Those people out there won't kill you. They are friendly." She tried to tell her, but the little Diclonius girl was still reluctant and not willing to go out. Nana was trying to explain, but the girl was still so nervous and scared.
Lucy saw this and got an idea. She motioned all of them to come inside, much to some confusion, they all obeyed her request and they entered the room as well. "You," she said to the girl in a calm tone of voice. "What is your name?"
The girl looked up at Lucy and hiccuped a bit. "K-Kagura!" She said in a timid voice.
"Ok, Kagura, look at these people right there," Lucy said as she pointed to Ben, Kouta, and the others, who were smiling a bit and waving a bit. "These are humans…..these humans...they are different, way different than the bastards here in this place." She said.
"R-really?" Kagura asked with shock, but it still had a hint of nervousness and hesitation in there too.
"Yes," Nana said to her "You see….we have been living with these humans for over a year now." When she said this, Kagura was wide-eyed and shocked. Diclonius and humans living together? Really? "And for the longest time we've been there, they have treated us with kindness and acceptance..there have been some ups and downs." She said as she flashback to the fight at the graveyard and the little revelations at the house a few days ago. "But nothing major….I promise, these people are truly amazing...and that one in the green jacket? He is more than my friend...he's my big brother...and I love him as one as well."
Kagura looked shocked, those people have been treating them...as equals? But in here, she was nothing more than a test subject to others though...how could this be?
"Listen, kid," Ben said to her. "I understand that you can't trust us, but believe us, we are truly trying to help you and the other ones trapped here in this hellhole." He said to her in a calm soothing voice, Kagura could sense that this human was making some sense, and from how he approached her...she felt as if she could be calm and peaceful with him.
"Well….uh…" Kagura said, a bit more hesitant. "How do I know you're telling the truth? I mean, the voice has been telling us that humans don't deserve to live," she said, and when she said that, the others looked alarmed.
"The voice?" Lucy asked with shock. "She told you this?"
"Y-yes!" Kagura said with nervousness. The others all looked at eachother with shock and horror, this was not good….
Lucy however kept her calm and looked at her. "Listen….I know the voice...because it's in me too. I'm Lucy." She said to her, and when she did, Kagura looked shocked.
"You….you're the queen!?" She asked.
Lucy nodded her head. "Yes and listen to me, whatever that voice is telling, is a bunch of lies." She said to her with caution. "There was a time where I believed it as well...but it made me things...things that I regret very much so." She said as she then turned to face Kouta, who was looking away with some shame and solemness. "Listen...there are some humans who are bad….like the ones here...but from living with everybody here...I can promise you...not all humans are bad." She said.
Kagura listened with keen interest, and she was amazed at something like this, all her life she was led to believe that humans were monsters as a combined effect from her treatment to the voice's manipulations….but here come these people and they are telling her about what is really going on...sorta. Kagura.. was still a bit hesitant, but she was starting to understand now a bit….yes...she made the decision...she wants to leave.
"Please!" Kagura begged as some tears began to spill out of her eyes. "Take me away from here…I don't want to be treated like this anymore!" She exclaimed to them all. Lucy took a closer glance at the girl, trying to make sure she wasn't trying to trick them. She knew that she used to do it back when she was a child...back when she was being manipulated by the DNA Voice. So she was still a bit hesitant, so she would have to keep a close eye on her.
Maple Inn
Kurama and Paradox were done telling the clones about what happened with Lucy, and the reactions were...pretty shocking. All the clones were shocked at what she went through, hell even Nousou and Yukino were shocked at hearing it all.
"So...Lucy….she doesn't want to destroy humanity?" Nousou said to his former colleague.
Kurama sighed. "No...not really, you see, that DNA Voice has been manipulating her into doing three things towards humans….and from what we've been doing to the girl that the Institute... it's no wonder why they hate us, from what we have been doing...all the experiments to them…..it's no wonder they hate us. And that voice...it is most definitely going to try to take advantage of them all. With how things are going for them….it would only be a matter of time." He said to them.
"But...Director Kakuzawa...he….he." Nousou said, but Paradox stopped him.
"He wants to end the world and replace all humanity with the only Diclonius, he believes that he and his family are descended from the first...and now he feels like it's time to take the earth back." He said with a grim look on his face. He then turned to face Diana and the others. "Girls….I...I don't know how you became cloned from Mariko….but just listen to me….if you want to, I can take you all away from here….and come to live with me, Mariko..and her new mother...we can be a real family."
The clones were now listening to him and were...conflicted a bit. All their lives they were being used as mere test subjects….and now they were being given an opportunity...an opportunity to….be free, and live like normal girls….this can't be real, this must be a dream!
"Hey!" Nousou said with anger. "I worked on these girls, you can't just take them from me!" He said with anger. Kurama got angry and stood up.
"YOU USED THEM AND TORTURED THEM!" Kutama shouted.
"SO DID YOU YOU FUCKING HYPOCRITE!"
"I KNOW...AND I REGRET IT EVERY DAMN DAY!" Kurama shouted before he had to calm himself down, less he wanted to have a heart attack. "You think I wanted those things?" He asked. "Did you think I wanted the infants to be killed?" He asked as he trembled. "After I did those things...I regretted it, I regretted it every day." He then sat down in a chair as he rubbed his face. "And Mariko...I should've paid more attention to her, and not just focused on Nana…" Guilt began to grow on him as soon as he began to remember the price that nearly cost him.
He then felt a gentle pat on his shoulder and saw Paradox give him a reassuring smile.
"Don't worry yourself, Kurama." Paradox said to him. It's all in the past now and that you are trying to make up for it." He said, he then turned to the other girls. "So what do you say, girls?" He asked. "Do you wish to come live with Kurama? You won't have to suffer from discrimination or torture no longer." He said with a warm smile
The girls all looked at each other, and then back at Kurama, and at Paradox, and back at each other, after staring at each other for a few short minutes, they all looked at Kurama again.
"Could you...please take us with you...Papa?" Diana asked with a soft tone of voice, with the other girls nodding their heads fast. Kurama smiled down at them.
"Yes...I will take you all away from here." He said. "And you will have new lives with me and Mariko, and your new mother." He said to them with a genuine smile. The girls then smiled widely at this new idea. Paradox looked at them and smiled too, these girls weren't lying, and they weren't planning on tricking him...they were being genuine.
Barbara was still a bit hesitant to do it though. She was still a bit hurt and untrusting of humans, and she wanted to reject Kurama alot...but she couldn't help it...she knew that somehow
"Hey, what about us?" Nousou asked them heatedly as he and Yukino still struggled a bit in the ice, and the clones glared angrily at him.
"I should kill you!" Barbara said heatedly at him. "You might have let us under control, but I remember you doing stuff to us!"
"No need for that!" Kurama said to them, making the girls look thin with shock. "I know he did things to you girls...but I think there is a punishment that is in store for him." He said with a look of disapproval at the man.
Nousou tried to plead, but it fell on death ears. And he knew that he was not going to get out of this unpunished. "Ok...I'll accept any punishment you give me." He said to Kurama. "But just hear me out, alright?" He sighed and explained something to them. "For the times I was with the girls….I felt something for them...and I said that I would take them to the carnival once Lucy was captured again….if you could….please take them to the carnival for me?" He asked Kurama.
Kurama was pretty shocked and surprised by this revelation, as well as the clones. They didn't expect that..this...weirdo to care about a thing for him, but now that he said that...they felt a bit...upset, was it out of grief, or some psychological thing? Who knows. But he sighed and nodded his head. "Alright...I'll do it for them." He said to the girls and smiled a bit.
"As for you my dear," Paradox said to Yukino. "Unfortunately we can not let you tell your superiors about the events that have and will transpire tonight, so I will erase your memories of this particular night, and tomorrow you will wake up with no memory of this night.
"What? You can't!" She said. "They need to know about Kakuzawa!"
Kurama and Paradox smirked. "That won't be necessary," Kurama said. "Because there's a certain boy going over there tonight….and he will stop Kakuzawa."
(Eyecatch featuring Kurama standing with Nana, Mariko, Diana, Alicia, Barbra, and Cynthia surrounding him, the guild were wearing normal shirts and smiling a bit.)

Diclonius Institute
Everything was beginning to look good for the good guys, a majority of the soldiers were all knocked out and most of the scientists were being captured and rounded out. But that was the least of their worries. They had tried to talk to some of the girls in the rooms, but the girls were not very responsive and most were either aggressive or scared to talk to them.
"This isn't working out," Scout said to Max. "I mean half of these kids are either aggressive or are a bit scared...possibly of us." Max then sighed a bit as he didn't know what to do. Kevin tried his best to try talking to some of them, but it wouldn't work at all and he was trying to think of something.
"Maybe Lucy can do something…" Max thought.
Gwen was checking up on Kevin, who was now leaning up against a wall. "Are you alright?"
"Yea...It's just so hard to try to get through to these kids...I don't know how we can talk to them without one of them either trying to kill us or not talking at all." He then rubbed his face. "This might be harder than usual…" He said.
Gwen then looked down and thought for a moment. "You think Lucy could do it?" She asked him, making him look at her with confusion. "I mean she is the queen after all...maybe she could somehow telepathically speak to them and tell them that everything will be alright since we are here to get them all out." Kevin took Gwen's word a bit and began to think….could it be possible?
Meanwhile, back with the others, Ben and the rest were running all around the place and they saw some more Diclonius, but at the same time, more soldiers were there to try to capture them. But luckily, they were all blasted away by Kouta and the others.
"Yuka!" Kouta exclaimed as he quickly shot a soldier in the face, knocking him back a bit. Now don't worry, the blasters Kouta and the others had weren't the ones to kill, but it did g shock the enemies only a little bit and caused them to get knocked out a bit. Yuka got up and saw the fallen soldier and looked at Kouta.
"Thanks, Kouta.." she said with a brushed look on her face, a face that Koua returned a bit.
"Yea..you're welcome." He said to her in a nervous voice. "What the heck is going on with me?" He thought.
Nozomi saw one guard coming towards her and despite some nervousness and hesitation, she shot at him, knocking him out cold. "I'm sorry!" She called out to him.
Mayu then noticed a soldier coming up at her and pointing his gun at her. "Alright little girl, you and your friends just give up Lucy and Number 7 to us, and we might let you and your friends go free." He said.
But Mayu? Her response was not something he would expect. "Hell no!" she exclaimed. "You're not taking my family from me, you bastard!" she said as she then fired a blast from her laser at the soldier, knocking him back and knocking him out as well. Mayu's anger was soon forgotten and got shocked "Woah…!" she said in amazement, she got angry...for like the first time ever since she hit her stepfather.
Ben saw how his friends were acting and he had to smile at them for their bravery that they were all showing. "I think I've, become a positve influence on them." He thought with a smile. But there were bigger issues.
But there was some difficulty though, Ben didn't mind getting the girls out, but the issue was that they cant be going to almost every room to talk to them...there's got to be another way to get to them without rushing in.
"Wait...I think I have an idea!" Ben said as he then looked at his Omnitrix and selected Vectoria. "There you are." He said with a smile, and pushed the dial, when he did, he was now Vectoria in all her glory. "VECTORIA!" she shouted.
The sight of the new Diclonius brought shock and awe to everybody but one was as shocked as Lucy.
"Y-you can...turn...into a Diclonius?!" She asked with wide eyes and her mouth dropping with shock.
Vectoria then looked at the others and blushed a bit. "Oh...yea...did I forget to mention it to you?" She asked as she pushed her index fingers together. Kouta and the others looked at Vectoria with shock and awe, but Kouta...he was kinda blushing at her a little bit, he should due to it actually being Bent...but he couldn't help but blush.
Yuka noticed though and she had to elbow him a little bit. "So..what's your plan V-Vectoria…" She said. "Gonna take some getting used to." She thought.
Vectoria then went over to Lucy and grabbed her hands. "Lucy, if your DNA Voice can speak to others through their heads..then maybe you can do it as well." She said to her.
Lucy then began to take this into some thought, could she do it? Without the DNA Voice's involvement? It was a bit nerve-wracking to her though, and she was a bit nervous. But she felt a few hands on her shoulder and she turned to see Kouta smiling at her.
"You can do it." He said with a soft smile. He still wasn't going to forgive her for what she did….but he wouldn't hold it against her though. Lucy looked at him and then looked at everybody else to show that they nodded their heads and smiled at her as well. And Nana herself smiled at her, along with Kagura, who was simply holding onto Nana a bit.
"Well...ok then, I'll try," Lucy said as she then closed her eyes and tried to channel into her inner mind in order to speak to the other Diclonius, it was kind of hard as usually the other half of her did that, but she was not going to give up...not now, not ever.
"Hello?" She spoke through her mind, it was her own voice, it wasn't the DNA Voice, it was just her regular normal voice. "Can anybody hear me?" She asked her mind once again, but it was silent for a few minutes. "Listen, I don't know if any of my fellow Diclonius can hear me or not, but I was to tell you all something."
Vectoria, Nana, and Kagura could hear her loud and clear and Vectoria was smiling, but she was hoping that the others heard Lucy loud and clear.
"I am the queen, Lucy. I want you all to listen to me very clearly, some of you might not believe me, but I am very serious that I am the queen of you all. But listen to me, the people in weird suites here and I are trying to save all of you for this horrible place." She then sighed a bit as she began speaking again. "I know you are all mistrusting, and some of you might be scared...but hear me when I tell you this. These people are not our enemies, sure they look weird and a few might be human, but they are not our enemies." She said through her mind. There was no response, and it was making Lucy worry a bit, but she still kept on trying.
"Listen...I know how you all feel." She said. "Being trapped in this place, feeling like nothing more but tests and toys to these bastards….I escaped a year ago and you know what? I found some people who care about me, and they came here and are risking their lives just to help me get all of you out of here." There was still no response though, and she sighed a bit.
Vectoria then looked worried and then closed her eyes to see if she could do it as well. "Everybody?" She said in her head, which made her eyes wide with surprise. "Hey, I can do it! Cool!" She said with a glee in her voice, but she then glanced over at Lucy, Nana, and Kagura, who gave her confused looks and raised eyebrows. "Sorry.." she said with a blushed face, making Kouta and the humans look confused. "Listen to me, I'm the one who suggested this. I am Vectoria, but I will explain to all of you later...just listen, have you all ever heard another voice inside you? A voice that tells you about how evil humans are and that they deserve to die? Well, I want to tell you all, that voice is lying!" She sighed a bit before breathing in and out. "I know you mistrust humans for the stuff that the people in here did to you….but I want to tell you that not all humans are bad people. Sure there are some humans who are bad, like the people here….but I know some people who are very kind and sweet as well….I can get you all away from this, away from the drama, away from the discrimination...just please trust the people in weird suites..please." She said in her mind. There were no responses, and she and the other Diconius got a bit worried.
But Lucy, Nana, and Kagura were actually amazed at what Vectoria said in her mind, she was able to communicate to the other Diclonius inside her one head….it was pretty amazing.
"Well...that was a thing." Said Vectoria's DNA Voice with a sly style. Vectoria inwardly sighed.
"Are you making fun of me?" She asked.
"Nope," She said with an audible pop at the 'P'. "I found it pretty interesting, I didn't think you could do that."
Vectoria smirked. "Well, I am full of surprises afterall." but she then got a worried glance. "Wait...if you can sense me and others….what are the others thinking?" She asked.
"Well, I can't really hear what they are saying, I can only talk to them, but I can also feel their emotions as well." She said to him as she was then silent. "Hmm...interesting."
"What is it?" Vectoria asked.
"Well...a majority of the Diclonius in here...I can feel their emotions, and some are mixed a bit...I sense...happiness...nervousness….and hesitation." She said as her voice sounded a bit more intrigued and surprised. "I think you and Lucy are doing good...but you might need to do more though in order to gain their full trust."
"So what do we do?" Vectoria asked.
"Well….I honestly don't know...but I'm here to offer you support...when you need it." She said unsurprisingly.
Vectoria then became annoyed. "Thanks," she said deadpanning.
"You got it!" the voice said with a cheerful voice. Vectoria sighed a bit.
"Now I know you're just enjoying this. *sigh* Now what do I do?" Vectoria asked herself...but before she could think of what to do next, she was then snapped out of her thought by Kouta.
"Ben!" He exclaimed. "Get over here, you need to see this!" He said, and he didn't sound too happy. Vectoria got confused, but a bit nervous and ran to see what happened. After running up to them, she noticed that the object Kouta wanted to show them was a familiar face that was covered up in some sort of slime-like material that was keeping her from escaping.
"Wait..she's the one from Professors Kakuzawa's class!" Vectoria exclaimed with surprise, but Arakawa looked at the girl with widened eyes.
"ANOTHER ONE!" She yelled with fright. Not only was Lucy there, but also #7 and another Diclonius out in the open? She was now panicking. "And you!" She said to Kouta. "Why Are you with them?"
But Kouta chose to ignore her and turned to Vectoria. "We just saw her while you were...talking to yourself." He said. "And we then found out that she was the one who told them about Lucy being at Maple Inn." He then glared at Arakawa. "She was the one who ratted us out!"
This made Vectoria look at Arakawa and gave her a short glare. "You did that?"
Arakawa then got worried. "N-now listen!" She said. "I'm sorry….I was just worried, I mean Lucy was there...and the bet...that guy...he said."
"Woah, Woah, Woah!" Vectoria said as she hit her dial and turned back into Ben. "What are you talking about?" However Arakawa was then freaked out by what she just saw, Ben could sense it too and sigh. "I'll explain later, but for now tell us about what you did." He said to her.
Arakawa gulped a bit. "Well...um….you see...I made a bet with this one guy about finding Lucy first…..and he was going to…..LOOK I'M SORRY ALRIGHT!" She screamed at them. "I just saw you all together and I had a bet with the guy and he threatens to turn me into a pleasure slave and….I'm so sorry." Arakawa said with a nervous voice as a tear went down her eye. "I was concerned for my own safety and I just had her capture you all...and I was….I was…
"Wait," Ben said as he sighed and rubbed his head. "Look, you can explain later...but I do want you to know that you failed." He said with a small smirk but it then got serious again. "But still...I want to know….where is Kakuzawa?" He asked her.
"But why? And do you know about all the chaos going on here?" Arakawa asked him heatedly. "All the Diclonii are being released and the scientists are running like-"
"Yea, we are here to get them all out," Kouta said to her with a frown on his face, making Arakawa look at him.
"What? Why?"
"Because they don't deserve to live like this!" Yuka said to her. "I'm still new to this whole….Diclonius stuff...but they don't deserve to be locked up and tested like rats!" She said to her with anger. "And you think Diclonius are evil and wish to kill humans? Do you think that there is a slight possibility that how you are treating them is a reason for that? I mean just think about it!"
Arakawa was at a loss for words….of course she sorta knew the truth to what Kakuzawa was planning, but she was also now listening to what Yuka was saying...during her time here she has seen some of the Diclonii getting abused by some of the others….and the sight made her sick. "I...I mean…"
"Just…." Ben started. "Please, don't get in our way from rescuing these kids….and just tell us all where Kakuzawa is at." He said to her. Arakawa looked at everybody and saw they were all genuine and she gulped before wriggling.
"Alright...please let me out of this stuff, please." She said to them, and with that, Kouta and Nozomi helped her out of there and helped her up. "Kakuzawa in a grotto below the institute. I'll take you all there right now." She said.
Meanwhile...
"I can't believe it!" Max said with awe as he saw a bunch of Diclonius all hugging the Plumbers tightly and begging them to take them away from this place. "It seems like Lucy and my grandson got through to them all." He said with a smile.
"Ben did that?" Scout asked. "But...isn't he a guy?"
"Well, he apparently scanned Lucy and can turn into a Diclonius as well," Max said, Scout was still a bit confused and Max shrugged his shoulders. "Yea...it surprised me as well." He said. "Let me contact Ben right away." He said as he then got out a communication device and in a call to Ben. "Ben, are you there?" He asked over the communication device.
"I'm right here gramps," Ben said. "What's going on?"
"Well I don't know how you or Lucy did it, but all the Diclonius we are saving are all hugging us and begging us to take them away from this place. Some are still a bit hesitant but are still singing with us anyway."
"That's great!" Ben said with a smile. "The others and I are on our way to Kakuzawa's office right away, apparently he is in some sort of grotto underneath the building."
Max was a bit confused by that, but he then nodded his head. "Alright then, I and the others are going to take the girls back to the ships. You all be careful alright? And keep an eye out for any more soldiers, there are still some looming over the place."
"You got it, grandpa," Ben said as communications turned off.
Max then turned towards the others. "Alright everybody, let's get all these girls to the ships and treat them for any injuries!" He said, he then focused his attention on the girls. "Listen, girls, do not be afraid, we are not going to hurt any of you, we are getting you all out of this place and treating you for any injuries you might have on you."
The girls were still a bit hesitant, but they trusted these weird people a little bit more now, and they would do anything to get them out of here. And with that, the plumbers were getting these girls out of here.
Meanwhile...
BAM
Nozomi fired a gun at a soldier and knocked him back a bit. Big Chill then froze a group of other soldiers up to their necks and had them stand guard, and everyone else kept on fighting off some more soldiers.
Arakawa was both shocked and surprised by what she was seeing, these aren't the same people she saw a few weeks ago…..no siree, but that foreigner? What the hell as he?
"Arakawa!" Big Chill said. "How much longer till we get to Kakuzawa's office?" He asked her,
"Not too far now!" She said as the group kept on walking and taking down more soldiers that crossed their paths, finally after a while they found it.
Kakuzawa's Office
The group had finally made it to the office and looked around,
"Woah!" Yuka said as she looked all around the place with interest. "This place looks nice."
"Yuka…" Ben said to her. "We are in the office of the enemy you know?"
"I'm just saying, this office looks nice," Yuka said, trying to defend herself. Ben then looked around and he had to admit it, it did look pretty nice.
Arakawa then went towards a bookshelf and pulled out a book, revealing a secret elevator that led to the grotto. "He showed me this way, there is another way to the grotto but I feel like he used this to avoid you all." She said.
Ben and the others went to see the elevator for themselves..this was it, this was their way to the big boss. But before he left he turned to the others. "Alright people, we are going down there to confront the man who is responsible for this whole mess...I know Lucy and Nana will definitely want to go down...what about you? If you wish to stay here in this office, you are more than welcome too." He said to them all.
Everyone looked at eachother and tried to figure out what they would do and to see which course of action would benefit them all. After thinking amongst themselves, they had an answer.
"I'm going with you!" Kouta said to him. "I know I don't know much about what happened...but I want to see him get his ass kicked by you." He said with a smile.
"Same here!" Yuka said with her fist pumped in the air, along with Mayu, and Nozomi. Ben looked at them and was pretty surprised to see them wanting to go through it, but he did smile at seeing their bravery, he then looked to see Lucy and Nana smiling at him.
"Alright then, let's do this people!" Ben said and they all shouted with happiness and before they left, Ben went over to Kagura. "Kagura, we're going to a dangerous place, so you need to be right by us at all times, alright?" He asked her, the girl then nodded her head but a bit nervously.
"O-ok...I will.." she said nervously to him. Ben smiled and ruffled her hair as he approached the elevator. But she was still a bit hesitant, but she was then grabbed by Nana, who gave her a warm smile.
"Don't be terrified, my big brother is going to make sure that bad man is taken down," she said with a smile, Kagura was still slightly hesitant though..but she then nodded her head.
This is when Ben and the others all approached the elevator. Arakawa was standing with them, but was a bit nervous though...really nervous, what was the boss going to say? Was she going to be killed? It was stressing her out.
"Alright everybody, let's head down," Ben said with a determined grin on his face.
5 seconds later….
Everybody was in the elevator...but the issue was...everyone was kinda squished up together...and it was sorta uncomfortable.
"I should've turned into Armodrillo and burrowed us all down.." He thought with sarcasm.
(Eyecatch featuring Kakuzawa with Anna.)
(Eyecatch featuring Lucy and her little brother.)
Underground Grotto
Kakuawa was now standing in the grotto once again, this time he was standing over the cliff and looking into the sea once more. "It appears that Lucy has returned, my dear. He said to her. "But it appears that she has brought some...unexpected company with her though."
"It appears so, father." The water said as the eyes blinked in the water. "What shall you do?" She asked him.
"Just leave it all to me." He said with a smirk on his face. The water then rippled a bit, as if to say something.
"They are coming…" She said and Kakuzawa smiled a bit.
"So they are…" He said with a grin. He turned to see that a group of figures was coming up to him and he got ready. "Now to call for her brother…" He thought as he pressed a button from somewhere.
"YOU!" Ben hollered as he and the rest began to see the man, and all went up to him. "Are you the boss? Kakuzawa?" He asked heatedly.
Kakuzawa was not afraid, however, and he kept his grin on his face. "Yes, I am…..and you must be the little bastard who stopped the missile launch." He said, he then looked at the others and hsi eyes winded at Lucy. "So Lucy, you decided to come back...and finally take your place as mother of the new wo-
"Shut it!" She snapped at him. "I am not your puppet! And I am not interested in doing whatever bullshit stuff you have intended for me!"
"But it's your purpose!" Kakuzawa told her. "You are the queen of your species, so you are destined to eliminate all humanity and rule over your own kind."
"Oh shut up!" Ben said to him. "She is not interested in your plans! And no matter what, she and the rest of us? We are going to stop you!" He said,
Kakuzawa then glared at him, but then glared at Arakawa who looked terrified. "Arakawa...why did you let them in? And what is going on upstairs?"
Arakawa gulped nervously. "Well...uh...you see...all the Diclonius...are being freed….and getting taken away…" she said with nervousness.
Kakuzawa would normally get angry about this, but he tried to remain calm and gripped his fists tightly. "And why are they being released?" He asked.
"Because they deserve a better life than the shit you put them through here!" Nana snapped at him. "The only reason I ain't like Lucy is that papa treated me with kindness and love!" She said to him.
Kakuzawa smirked at her. "Oh, yea...Number 7, your 'father', Kurama...he made a very big mistake in letting you go." He sneered, making Nana glared at him hatefully. "You were supposed to bring back Lucy, and you failed…but I won't be making that mistake today."
Kouta then walked up and stood next to them all, his gun in his hands. "We won't let you touch any member of our family." He growled. But Kakuzawa was not intimidated.
"Well, no matter!" He said to them as he then looked at them all. "So you...boy...tell me...how did you stop my missile?" He asked Ben, who smirked at him.
"Why? You gonna force me to do your dirty work?" He asked. "Listen, buddy, I've taken on worse things than you, and you rank...really low." He said with a not-so-impressed tone, and the others were snickering or smiling at how serious he was. Be did tell them about how he fought other enemies, such as Vilgax, Aggregor, Albedo, and the Highbreed, and from what they could tell, Kakuzawa was not a threat compared to those figures Ben mentioned.
But Ben did tell Kakuzawa about his Omnitrix and how he had stopped the missile that night, and he used it for other reasons as well. Kakuzawa seems pretty impressed with his story and was rubbing his chin in interest. "Hmm...you know boy, you would be very-"
"Not interested," Ben said to him. "If you think you're going to try to coerce me into joining you, then you got another thing coming! Because it ain't going to happen. We are here to take you down, rescue all the other girls here...and see to it that this place is destroyed." He said with a short glare.
Before Kakuzawa was going to retort, he spotted Lucy glaring at him. "Where's my brother?" She asked with hatred in her voice.
Kakuzawa was a bit confused but then he relaxed who she was talking about. "Oh yea…" He said as he turned to a group of rock. "Come here, Ami." He said with a soothing voice, and the others turned to see who he was referring to.
Out came a small boy with a black shirt that covered part of his legs, and was barefoot, but the most distinguishing thing about him? He had pink hair and had the same horns as Lucy did, and he had one of those metal things on his forehead. When he approached Kakuzawa, his eyes lit up as soon as he saw Lucy. "B-Big Sister?" He said in a childish voice.
This brought all of them to be very shocked at what they saw...was this….kid….a Diclonius? And if so….was he...a boy? Nana and Lucy were both shocked, for their lives, they saw female Dilonii, but a male Diclonius? This was a big shock.
"Lucy...this is your younger brother," Kakuzawa said with a smile. "Do you want to know how he is your brother?" He asked.
Lucy was still overcoming her shock a bit. A part of her wanted to kill him...kill him and rip his entire body apart and have his blood drain from his body...but she felt Ben in her presence and she decided to breathe and calm down. "How?"
Kakuzawa smirked as he ruffled Ami's head. "Well, after we captured you...we had to figure out who your parents were…"
"My parents?" Lucy asked, as she then shook her head. "My parents abandoned me in the woods, and I was led to that...orphanage.." She said to him.
Kakuzawa then chuckled a bit. "Oh, you poor, poor, naive girl." He said. "You see, you were abandoned..but by your father...apparently, your father had left you to die by yourself in the woods. And your mother never knew about it, and she was trying to find you for years. But fortunately for us, we had found her first." As he said this, he then ruffled Ami's head. "And as you see...I was able to get what I wanted….in the end."
When he said this Lucy was shocked...if her mother was trying to find her all along? And she never even knew about it? She was….she was...shocked. But what did he mean by getting what he wanted? And...what did he mean by he found her first.
"What do you mean by….found her first?" Yuka asked him. Kakuzawa smirked a bit.
"Well, you see. Once we figured out about her existence...I….let's just say...had my bit of fun with her to produce my own child." The man said with a smile, and when he did that, this made everyone widen their eyes and tremble a bit.
"You mean...you….raped her?" Ben asked as his fists trembled, "And that boy right there...is your son produced from her?"
"Right, my boy," Kakuzawa said with a smile. "I wanted to produce more kids, but she was unable to, due to her taking the brown life...I had my scientists try to salvage her organs...but the attempts were a bit..unsuccessful-
BAM
Kakuzawa was sent flying backward a bit, by a very pissed off Lucy. for now she knew the truth about her family...and her life...all of it was in ruin...thanks to this...this...monster…..he was going to pay….he was going to pay dearly.
"You…" she growled with hatred oozing out of her voice. "You hurt my mom….and you forced yourself on her…..all my life I thought she heard me….but now I find out you raped and killed her?" She asked as her loo became much darker and sinister. "YOU'RE GONNA FCKING DIE!" She screamed at him and she began to launch her vectors at the man.
BOOM
But before she could, there was a big splash in the ocean and out came a large...thing out of the ocean with big eyes looking down at them all.
"I won't let you hurt my father!" The monster said with a google voice, all of them looking up with shock at what they were looking at, but Lucy? Lucy was grinning wickedly.
"You want to go?" She asked as her vectors came out. "BRING IT!" She said and was about to kill her, until.
"STOP!" Ben yelled at her as he and Kouta both walked right up and placed their hands on her shoulders. When Lucy got a good look at them both, she felt some of her anger go away, but it was still partially there.
"Ben...Kouta…" She breathed deeply, trying really hard not to rage out on them. "This bastard-"
"We know," Kouta said to her. "But you promised that you would not kill anybody anymore." He said as he glared at Kakuzawa. "But believe me, this piece of shit deserves it though."
"I think I have a better solution to that," Ben said to them, most likely referencing the Null Void. "But first I need to tell him something." He said as he looked at Kakuzawa, who was looking at the large creatures with a smile and Ben was trying really hard not to freak out and punch him in the face. "Hey, buddy!" He said, getting Kakuzawa's attention. "Do you really think you are Diclonius?"
"Yes I do!" the man said with a smug look. "I and my family were descendants of the first ones and we are going to reclaim the earth as-"
"Guess again buddy, because you aren't really Diclonius," Ben said to him. There was some silence in the room for a little bit, but then Kakuzawa glared at Ben.
"What did you say, boy?" He asked.
"You, your son, your family, none of you are real Diclonius!" Ben said to him, with the others (sans Arakawa and Kagura) nodding their heads in agreement.
Kakuzawa was wide-eyed a bit, but at the same time, he was trembling a bit. That was a lie! A filthy, filthy lie to say! "THAT'S A FUCKING LIE!" He yelled out loudly, making them all shale a bit. "I and my family have horns, just Lucy's, we are destined to-"
"Father…" Kakuzawa then looked up at the large creature that was looking down at all of them. "They...are right." She said to him, but this just….shocked him even more. But this couldn't be...this just couldn't….he had honors...everybody had horns on their heads...what was going on? "The reason we have horns on our heads is merely due to a skin condition that was passed on to you." She said with a sound of a mixture of sadness and hurt.
Kakuzawa then looked at her and back at the others….this couldn't be….this couldn't. All the things he did, all the girls he tested on…. "That's a lie…" He whispered hatefully, and then he blew right up. "THAT'S A FUCKING LIE, YOU HEAR ME?!" He shouted as he got out his gun and cocked it and aimed it at Lucy. "If you won't do as I say...THEN I HAVE NO NEED FOR YO-"
Kakuzawa was then stopped by Four Arms, who then twisted his wrist a bit, making him drop his gun. "Guess again, asshole." He said angrily as he headbutts him hard, making the man fall with a big thud.
"Papa?" Ami said with a childish voice with worry, and the large creature above them all was growling.
"Don't you dare touch my father!" It said as it said to them, but Ben (who turned back) tried to calm her down.
"Wait, please!" He said to her. "Did you say, papa? As if you're his offspring?" He asked. The monster only blinked, most likely to say yes.
"I am Anna Kakuzawa, and I am his daughter. Why do you ask?"
"Listen," Ben said to her. "Why do you not wish for us to not hurt him? He hurt Lucy, he is responsible for her life becoming a literal hell, and he would've infected tons of innocent people that night if it weren't for me." He said. "So why do you wish to protect him?"
Anna then looked down at Ben once again. Of course...due to her intelligence, she knew that it was not going to happen, especially since Been stopped the missile strike. And she had to admit, she was not too happy about going along with what her father was doing, but she had to do it. "Because he is my father." She said to him. "To be honest with you, I do not approve of this whole thing at all. But I must help him out because he is my father and I want to show my loyalty and earn his approval. Why do you think I allowed myself to become this?"
Ben was looking at this girl as if he understood….sorta. "Well...I mean I understand that you love him, but if you are against it...then why not just tell him then?" He asked, he looked back to see that Lucy and Nana were coming up to him and the others were watching over Kakuzawa.
Anna looked down at him. "I simply can't just abandon my father….I mean...I just can't do it." She said to him.
Ben then sighed a bit. "Well...I mean…." He then sighed a bit. "Look, what do you expect me to do? I'm a superhero, heroes save people, and I'm here to save all the captured souls in this hellhole." He said to her. "I mean I won't kill him but I do want to beat the shit out of him for what he has done," Ben said to her but then he saw Lucy and Nana come up to him. "Lucy...I understand that you want to kill him.-
"Oh, I do!" Lucy snapped at him. "That piece of shit screwed my life up and murdered my mother!" She said to him with anger. Ben was looking at her and back at Anna and he was in a crisis...sure Kakuzawa possibly deserved death for at he tried to do...but.
"A lie…" Kakuzawa said as he was now awake, but he was now laying on his back, in a state of shock. "I can't believe it…" He mumbled…"Everything I did….was built on lies…" He said with a state of shock. "This can't be...I'm supposed to rule the new world as a god." He said.
Ben and the other girls went over to the rest. "Well you better believe it, Kakuzawa, you lost and we won!" Ben said at him. "Now I would just give up if I were you!" He said. "You aren't a Diclonius so you can't even fight back, and I got tons of different alien forms that can easily kick your ass without breaking a sweat."
Kakuzawa then glared at the boy right in front of him. "You little bastard-"
"Papa," Anna said to him. "It's over...just please stop." She begged him a while. Kakuzawa looked at her, and then back at Lucy. He didn't want to give up...he just didn't want to….but hearing the plea in his daughter's voice, he then sighed a bit.
"Alright, my daughter...I'll stop." He said. A part of him didn't want to give up, but the other part? He knew that he had failed, he then looked up and saw Ben...and well…
5 seconds later….
The man was now on the ground and sporting massive injuries to himself. Lucy...really wanted him dead but she did promise to Ben and Kouta to not kill anymore...so he had to listen to them...but she was seriously craving to slice off his head for what he did.
Ben then went up to Anna. "Listen….is there some way I can help you? Like I don't know if you are like this permanently or...uh." Ben's aid as he looked at the large monster...trying to figure out how to help her.
"No need to." She said to him. "The figure you see before you is nothing more than a shell, my real body is inside...if you can free me from it...it would be helpful." She said to him.
Ben then looked back to see that Kouta was tying up Kakuzawa with a rope, just so he wouldn't try to run away. "Alright then...if you're sure." He said as he went through his Omnitrix to find Four Arms. "Here we are." He said as he pushed on the dial and turned into the Tetramand. "Alright, let's do this." He said as he then scrunched down and jumped high into the air. Once he got in the air, he then looked down at the large shell. "Let's hope this works." He said and he then dashed downwards. "DOUBLE FIST!" He shouted.
BOOM
He used all four of his fists to hit the large shell, which made it begin to crack up and begin to shake. "SHE'S GONNA BLOW!" Yuka shouted before a majority of them took covers behind all the rocks. And just like that, the shell had exploded and everybody covered their eyes. Four Arms squinted a bit to see that a teenage girl had started to fall out of it, but he was able to jump in the air and he caught her.
"Don't worry," He said gently, I got you-" but then he freaked out after he discovered that she was well….naked. "Ok, someone gets the girl some clothes please!" He said in a freaked-out tone of voice.
A few minutes later….
Anna was now covered in Arakawa's jacket, despite some protests, and was laying down, feeling a bit sleepy. Now there were two problems dealt with...now there was a problem dealing with Ami.
"So what do you want to do?" Ben asked Lucy as Ami was now hugging the girl tightly. "I mean, he is your brother after all...and maybe we could remove the thing inside his head to get him out of this state." He said. Lucy was going to say something, but she then felt Ami attempting to touch her lower area, causing the girl to groan and back up from him a bit.
"Don't do that!" Lucy exclaimed to him, but he giggled and started to follow her, Ben was noticing that as well and got curious.
"Oi, Kakuzawa!" He said to him. "Why is that kid going after Lucy like a pervert?"
Kakuzawa glared at him. "Well, I had it to be ensured that he would be programmed into mating with Lucy, he and her would've been the Adam and Eve of the new world." He said smugly. This just made everybody look thin with shock and immediate disgust, he really had them have a boy get aroused from his own sister? How sick was this bastard?
"Ben…" Lucy said through gritted teeth. "Can I do it now?" Now she really wanted that old bastard dead. Ben was also fuming, and yes he did want Kakuzawa dead, seeing how that was a whole new low...but had a much more fitting punishment for him.
"Just take it easy Lucy….hey kid!" He said to Ami, who now looked at him with confusion. "You want to see something?" He asked as he got out his Omnitrix and selected hsi alien and pressed the dial, and he turned into Pesky Dust. "Come catch the-prrrr-fairy." He said.
Ami's eyes went wide with childish glee. "Fairy!" He said as he began to go after the Nemuina.
"That's right," Pesky Dust said. "Come-prrrr- to the pretty fairy." He said as he expanded his finger and pointed it at the boy. "Now be a good-prrrr-boy and just take a nice little nap." He said as a beam of green came out of his finger and hit Ami, and once it did, the young boy got a bit sleepy.
"Big sister…" Ami moaned. "Ami...sleepy." He said as he then began tumbling, but was then caught by Lucy, and when she did, she glared a bit at Pesky Dust.
"What did you do Ben?" She asked him.
"Now don't worry." Pesky Dust said as he turned back into Ben. "I just put him to sleep, don't worry I didn't hurt him. I got him to sleep so we can bring him back to the gramps and then we can see if we can get him some help." He said to her.
Meanwhile, Arakawa was watching this all and was...very surprised….all the stuff she was doing….it was all to end the world….and this boy...this boy stopped it all….and this made it all safe...sorta. She was...very amazed and surprised. She also felt very bad, bad that she caused this all to happen, bad about almost getting them all killed. And she couldn't really be happy, for all the guilt she felt.
"Hey," She then looked up to see Ben, who was holding Ami. "I don't know why you ratted us out...but something tells me that you were forced to do so, so what was it about?" He asked her.
Arakawa gulped and told him about it. "Well, I..got into a bet with his son….to whoever finds Lucy first...will become a pleasure slave….and you see-"
"Ok, I don't think I want to hear the rest!" Ben exclaimed a bit. "But listen, whatever reason is to why you ratted us out...it's over and done with….but I regret to inform you that we are not leaving this place empty-handed." He said to her.
"Well, I mean...I was going to work on a cure….because I didn't know if Kakuzawa was going to build another missile….but I guess it ain't necessary." She said to him, now feeling a bit more relaxed around him.
BOOM
Then the entire area began to shake a bit, making everybody tumble a bit. They didn't know what was going on but it sounded like a big booming explosion from up high.
"What the hell was that?" Kouta asked with shock. Then he was receiving a call from his own communication device and he answered it.
"Kouta!" Max's voice said in the intercom. "Apparently the entire place was rigged up somehow, and is going to blow up!" He said urgently, making Kouta's eyes widen.
"Guys!" He said, getting their attention. "The whole place is rigged and is going to blow up!" He said, making everyone panic a bit, except for Kakuzawa, who simply gave a devious look, a look that was noticed by Ben.
"You did it, did you?" He asked him, making Kakuzawa sneer at him. "Bastard.." He said through gritted teeth. "Kouta, let me borrow that communicator!" Kouta then handed Ben the device and Ben began to speak. "Grandpa! Did you manage to get all the Diclonius out?"
"Yes, don't worry, we got a majority of the girls and scientists out, and we also made sure the soldiers got tied up as well," Max said. "Where are you and the others?" He asked.
"It's hard to explain, we're kinda in an area deep underground….it's a long story that I'll explain once we get back up."
"Well you all better hurry, we don't have that much time," Max said to him as the communicator turned off.
Ben gave the device back to Kouta as he turned to the others. "Alright, my grandfather just gave me the word that mostly the place has been evacuated. Now let's get Kakuzawa Anna, and Lucy's brother out of here." He said.
Everyone had to agree with him, but there was still the issue with the DNA Voice, but they would worry about that later. Now the only thing they had to do was to leave and get out of this hell hole.
20 minutes later outside the Institute….
Everybody had finally made it outside the Institution, watching it all blown up and destroyed. The scientist and researchers were tied up, along with the soldiers. The girls were all in the ships being cared for, Anna and Ami were still out and were also being treated, and Kakuzawa was wrapped in chains.
Ben and his group were all standing outside and looking at the whole building, which was now destroyed "Well Lucy, Nana...you girls are finally free from this hellhole of a place." Ben said with a smile on his face.
"You both will never have to worry about them taking you back again," Kouta said with a smile on his own. Lucy and Nana were not responding though, all they could do was just look on at the place...the place that gave them hell, the place that tortured them….they were finally free…they would never have to live in fear ever again. The two couldn't help...but cry a bit.
"Guys?" Mayu asked with concern but got more concerned as Nana wailed loudly and fell to her knees, making everyone worried. "Nana, what's wrong?" She asked with nervousness. Nana kept on crying though and her words were a bit mumbled a bit.
"She's happy." they all turned to see that Kurama had arrived with Paradox, along with a tied-up Nousou and Yukino. And Mariko was there as well, along with Diana, Barbara, Cynthia, and Alicia. When Nana saw them, her eyes widened, and more tears were threatening to spill out.
"Hi...Big Sister." Mariko said to Nana in a cute heartwarming smile. And Nana immediately cried some more, not of sadness, but happiness. And Kurama and the other girls went towards Nana and engulfed her in a big hug.
Ben looked at the scene with a smile and looked back at Lucy, who was standing by herself a bit and he went up to her. "Lucy, are you ok?" He asked.
Lucy snapped out of her thoughts and looked at Ben. "Oh...well...sorta….I mean," she said as he turned behind her. "For many years I was locked up in this place….and I was listening to the voice in my head about how humans are monsters." And then she felt herself tremble up a bit. "After I escaped...I didn't care about anything else but finding Kouta and apologize….and now...looking at what we did here tonight...I can't help but feel….feel."
"Free?" Ben asked her, making Lucy nod her head and give him a genuine smile.
"Yes...I feel...free." But her smile then turned into a frown. "But there is still one problem though.
"Yes...the voice inside you," Ben said to her, making her look at him and then look down.
"Ben...I have something to ask you for me." She said as she grabbed onto his hands and rubbed them gently with hers. "Please…" She then looked at him with her eyes looking watery. "Please, save me." She pleaded to him. "Please!" she asked as she sniffled a bit at him.
Ben looked at her and he brought her into a hug. "Of course I will, I'm a hero after all." He said with a smile on his face, a smile that Lucy returned as they hugged a bit. They both looked back at the burning Institute as it was now burning wildly and the rubble crumbled.
"Good riddance…" Lucy thought with disgust at the place.
So, here we go, ladies and germs.
So I was doing the best I could, and the reason it took me so long was that I wasn't sure how I wanted it to go, so if it wasn't as exciting as you thought it would be, I apologize.
But in all seriousness….we are nearing the conclusion everybody and boy am I happy as well not that I don't love doing the story, I'm just happy that we are nearly at the end, after two whole years.
Anyways, please don't forget to read and review, I am always happy to hear from you all and happy to hear any questions you might have for me.
See you all next time...as we reach the final fight :)
