A man donning metal armor partially inspired by medieval European knights. It is augmented with alien technology that affords him great maneuverability and speed that would otherwise be inhibited by the clunkiness of the armor. He has yellow lighting on his helmet, and he wears a red cape along with his armor. He also bears a symbol on his chest, it was a red and yellow patch with a black infinity symbol on it. The armored man stared at several screens depicting as many events caught by his drones.
The beings on his screen were all of Alex's Alien, all saving people or defeating some B list criminals like Harold Brewman the Vanisher, Clancy the king of bugs, a weapons dealer known as Rose Nesmith all being defeated by the various aliens. Then there was a new one... a strange creature resembling a humanoid dinosaur. "Fascinating.", he pulled up another recording of one of them, the Diamond-like creature reverting into a young boy no older then fourteen.
The footage had always ended once the obstacle was dealt with, each alien would retreat to somewhere secluded like an alleyway or behind a dumpster. It all ended with them reverting into that human child.
He zoomed in on his face and matched it with a database he had. "Alexander Theodore Tennant, I cannot wait to meet you."
"God I hate beaches. Like they're fun to go to every once in a while but you get sand in the wrong places for like weeks, y'know what I mean? Like I gotta shower off every bit of sand so I don't get a rash and for some reason there's still sand there.", Alex rambled on as Ben just listened.
"Yeah, never liked that part of the beach.", Ben said as Alex jolted up as soon as he saw Max pulling out a weird looking turkey.
"Alright, imma take a walk. Don't wait up.", Alex patted Ben's head as both he and Gwen looked at him, looked at Max, and back at him.
"You're evil.", Gwen commented as Alex tilted his head.
"Whatever do you mean Gwendolyn?", Alex said with his smug grin as he waved and walked out. "Ain't eatin that shit.", he heard a women cry for help, and on instinct, he ran to a place to hide and walked sprinted out as Crazy Diamond.
"Leave her... alone?", his attempt at heroism was thwarted by some guy who had a knight suit, holding the man up by his neck and throwing him into a wall. "Well fuck."
"Here you are fair maiden.", the knight dusted the woman off and gestured her to leave, in which she did.
"Welp, I came here for nothing.", Crazy Diamond scratched his head, just as he was about to leave.
"Quite the contrary Alexander, you came at the perfect time.", the knight dodged under crystal shards, noticing his other hand turned into a large scythe. "Now now, no need for hostilities."
"It's one thing to wear a ridiculous suit like that but knowing my name? Oh that's a hate crime.", Crazy Diamond said.
"Calm yourself Young Alexander, I am not here to fight. On a knights honor.", the knight said as Crazy Diamond relaxed, his scythe snapping back into a hand. "Good. Allow me to introduce myself, my name is George or you may call me the Forever Knight. I am apart of a lineage of protectors with a sacred mission, you have proven yourself to be a worthy successor for this cause. I'd be more the willing to teach you although a test is required."
"George...?", Crazy Diamond remembered Paradox's warning from a few days back. "Hmmm, give me some time to think about it."
"If that is the case.", George pulled out a device and tossed it over to him, in which Crazy Diamond caught it, reverting to his human self. "That is a communication device, if you decide your answer then that will help you notify me of it. Until then.", he clicked his heels together and flew off with the aid of rocket boots.
"That's kinda cool.", Alex shrugged as he looked at the communication device. "Beware Old George. Beware the creature from beyond. Oh boy do I love cryptic messages.", he said sarcastically as he turned and walked back to the Rust Bucket.
~
"What are you doin again?", Ben asked as Alex had Max's toolbag on the table, in which Alex had finished checking the communication device for anything.
"Making sure he's not tracking me. How's the search comin along Gwen?", Alex looked up as he started to put the device back together.
"I'm not getting much, just some old articles about a Roman Soldier who went by Forever Knight.", Gwen said as she showed him an image of a painting which had a armored man fighting a dragon.
"I don't think you should trust him completely, be on guard. Remember what Paradox said?", Max said eating the rest of the food he prepared.
"Yeah, that's what I was thinking about.", Alex said as he finished putting the communication disc back together. "Let's hope you work.", he pressed a button and a miniature holographic image of Forever Knight popped up.
{"Greetings Alexander, I presume you've thought about my offer?"}
"Yeah, I'm in. Where do we meet?", Alex asked curiously.
{"Meet me at Wllington Street, I will be waiting for you."}
"Welp... wish me luck.", Alex waved them off as he transformed into Cold Soar, unfolded his wings and flew straight through the roof.
~
Cold Soar flew around Philadelphia until he found the armored man standing on a building right next to a helicopter. Once he landed he folded his wings back into his cloak. "You do know you don't need it right? We both can fly."
"True, but for this you need to conserve your energy as long as possible.", George said as Cold Soar lifted his wings a bit and slapped the Omnitrix and reverted to normal.
"You got a good point there.", Alex hopped into the back of the helicopter as Forever Knight entered, the propellers started up quickly.
Alex looked up ahead to see a sort of temple. "What the hell is that?"
"The Mayan Temple of Ek Chuaj, my family would come here as a training ground. This is a first for me as well, sort of.", the Forever Knight stated as he landed the helicopter gently, the propellers slowing down gradually. "Come."
Alex followed Forever Knight in an already opened entrance. "Weird, I've watched a bunch of movies and usually you don't find it already open."
"You are correct in that regard, I kept it open a while ago considering not a lot of people stop by here for tourism.", Forever Knight commented as he pulled out the hilt of a sword, which ignited a flame. "May I ask, how long can you maintain a transformation?"
"Well usually 15 minutes if I stay as one alien, but the timer goes down faster the more aliens I use.", Alex gestured to the Omnitrix. "Which was a good call to reserve my energy for a bit longer."
"Hmmm, I see. Transform only when necessary.", George looked at him behind his helmet. "Thread carefully, the Ancient Mayan's set boobytraps to hide it."
Alex cocked his eyebrow as he carefully made his way down the wooden steps, with Forever Knight... before hearing a snap and looking at his hand. "Ah shit."
"What have you done?!", Forever Knight exclaimed as The temple started to shake violently, and begins to release boulders from above, breaking their path from all directions.
"Plan B it is.", Alex activated the Omnitrix and dials for Cold Soar, however he accidentally turned the dial again and transformed into Spider-Ape. "Oh c'mon! Ah whatever, beggars can't be choosers.", he unhinged his jaw and shot a thick web from his mouth and swung away as Forever Knight activated his rocket boots, dodging in between the boulders.
Spider-Ape effortlessly dodged and weaves through the falling boulders and onto an edge, Forever Knight flew and landed next to him. He looked down at the small space chimp. "What?", he let out a monkey chirp. "I didn't do it on purpose."
"Let us continue, the item I need is on the lowest floor.", Forever Knight said as they noticed skeletons laid around on the floor. "Hold.", he held his hand up as Alex did just that. "Hmmm." He activated his scanner. "Another one, not sure what this could be. But to be safe." He activated his rocket boots and simply hovered above the ground and to the end.
"Wow, thanks for the lift jackass.", Alex popped his shoulder and got into a sprinters position. "Wish I had someone to hype me up or something.", he muttered as he took a deep breath and sprinted through, activating the trap. He quickly slid down and dodged a swinging blade before flipping back up and next to forever knight as another flew out.
"Quite outstanding, I don't think I've seen you do much in your human form correct?", Forever Knight said as Alex looked at the slight cut on his shirt.
Alex shrugged. "Yeah, I did a lot of gymnastics but I kinda got bored and quit."
"Hmm, well then, come, we're almost there.", Forever Knight gestured towards stone stairs.
~
"Sooo... what's next?", Alex looked straight ahead to see a long hallway with another opened entrance, and from what he could see it had stairs leading up.
"Not what exactly.", Forever Knight pointed to a large hole in a wall, in which a large creature bursted out through it, roaring.
The creature resembled a dragon, a massive creature that possessed a lizard-like body with bat-like wings and a tail. A a beak-like face. With dark green skin. There was a disc on its chest around the size of a human head. "So you've dared to return again Forever Knight? We've done this for centuries and you've still failed time and time again. And you've managed to bring another poor soul into this, a child no less."
"Silence beast, this time will be different. Alexander, deal with this one, there are beings up there I shall deal with myself.", Forever Knight said as Muscle Bound charged right by him.
The dragon effortlessly swatted him away and through a wall, before he could open its mouth it was snapped shut by several tentacles as it was dragged through by Parasite. "Get over here!", Parasite's eyes widened as he dropped into his gelatinous state and slithered through the beams of intense fire.
"My turn.", reforming into a humanoid form, it stood as a beam of fire engulfed him. The dragon was met with several fire discs as soon as it stopped firing. It tried to swipe at Sunburn, who zipped out of the way and into the air with his fire propulsion. "Missed me ya overgrown lizard!" As soon as he said that, he was met with a tail wack into a wall.
Sunburn got up and unleashed a large torrent of fire that engulfed the creature, he could hear it stomping towards him. "I've gotta end this fast before I time out. Should I... Muscle Bound isn't gonna do the job." looking down, he used his pyrokinesis to levitate a rock and fly past the creature.
"Hold still you thief!", the dragon flapped its large wings, the sheer air pressure almost immediately extinguished his flames.
"Fine then, I'm comin at ya!", Sunburn yelled out as he reignited his flames, slapping the Omnitrix as a towering creature landed in front of the dragon. It started out as 12 feet tall, before growing into 60 feet. "Get ready to be extinct!", Extinction, he was a towering creature of currently 60 feet tall. He was a humanoid dinosaur like creature with ankylosaurus-like features such as its tail, with hard skin that is colored brown on its outer side and beige on its inner side with two golden yellow eyes. The ankylosaurus features have been more pronounced as he grew to his full size, possessing four black spikes on his face, with the plates on his shoulders and arms also separate and grow, giving him a more ferocious look. He wore primarily black shorts with white lines, the Omnitrix on its belt buckles
"Get ready to die, you disgusting thief.", the Dragon inhaler and unleashed a large beam of fire, in which Extinction charged straight through it, completely unbothered and uppercutted the creature, sending it right into the ceiling. The dragon unleashed powerful roar and lunged at him.
Extinction grabbed it and slammed the dragon into the wall, before slamming his tail right where it's equivalent to a ribcage could be. Extinction lifted his fist and looked at the creature, he exhaled and dropped into his original size, losing all the pronounced features and reverting to human. "You called me a thief... why?"
"Why would I tell a pawn of Forever Knight?", The dragon looked at him curiously.
"Because I could've killed you. Probably."
"Perhaps, mercy is considered a novel concept for those working for the Knight of Eternity.", the dragon stated. "But I will tell you this, that monster lead you here to distract me from the goal he was looking for."
"And what was that?"
"The Sword of Ascalon. A powerful weapon that allowed him to slaughter me and my brethren once we crashed down here, however the rest is quite... odd as I cannot remember it. But all I can remember is that I was here defending the sword for thousands of years... today will be the day he succeeds... because of you.", the dragon decided to go into unconsciousness, which would be optional for what it's implied.
"Dammit.", Alex ran through the large hole the Dragon made with Muscle Bound and sprinted down the hall, looking at dead creatures that looked inhuman. He looked up as he saw what he looked like under the helmet.
Sir George was an old man, bald on most of his head, with a long, white beard. He pulled the blade out of its rock, once he did, a white aura covered him, his armor started to change, becoming much lighter and losing some of its glowing yellow stripes. His suit became much slimmer and more form fitting. He looked much younger as well, being blonde and possessing a much shorter beard. A partial helmet formed over his head as he exhaled. "After centuries, we've been reunited." He lifted the sword as electricity surged around it.
"Should've said no I guess.", Alex said out loud as Sir George looked at him, leaping down and in front of him.
"Alexander, thank you for assisting me on my quest. You're the first being to ever survive this and I've been able to retrieve my sword so my goal could be achieved finally.", Sir George said as Alex tilted an eyebrow.
"What goal?"
"The eradication of all alien life. Join me and we can make this place a utopia, free of all extraterrestrials.", Sir George said as a blinding green light erupted, he was met with a fist by Extinction, sending him flying back into the pyramid.
"As if.", Extinction growled as Sir George looked at his bleeding nose.
"Hmmm, fine, I'll have to use force to make you understand.", Sir George said as he held the end of his sword out, spinning it rapidly and creating a strong whirlwind. Surprisingly, Extinction being pushed back, digging his fingers into the ground he quickly grew to full height and slammed the ground before reverting back.
Sir George's eyes widened as he leaped away and charged at him, quickly returning to his full height he threw a powerful left hook at George in which he dodged and delivered two powerful kicks to his chest, using his sword he sliced his chest and continued his barrage of attacks before being backhanded away, in which he immediately recovered and continued again, coming in with a dropkick he continued to slash at the giant dinosaur, getting faster with each slice.
"So he's getting faster, I'll have to change tactics.", slapping Sir George away he quickly transformed into Drag Racer. Sir George rushed at him, quickly dodging his swing and countering with a jab to his chest, putting a slight dent into the armor, using his tail he wrapped it around Sir Georges neck and threw him into a wall. "I'll ask this once.", he slapped the Omnitrix again and transformed into Muscle Bound.
"Only if you take it from me." George said sternly as the creature scowled. "You don't have the power to defeat me, and you never will."
"Are you sure about that?", Muscle Bound said, befuddled at this. "You don't know anything, all you've done is just stalk me."
"You're child, in over his head, using borrowed power from technology you can't even fathom," the Forever Knight used his sword to slash him right into a wall. "And you think you know power? Without your technology, what will you be? Just a weak, useless, scared little boy hiding from his pathetic mediocrity! Wasting it all on pointless heroics, while you could be doing real good with me! You're no hero, just an ignorant child.
Muscle Bound stepped out and popped his shoulder. "Yeah, sure, you're not entirely wrong. Thing is anyone can wear this watch and turn into aliens, but I know how to really make it work. But I don't give a shit about that right now, all I know is that I ain't workin with a Genocial maniac like you."
"Then you are a lost soul corrupted by beings of the pit.", Sir George said as Muscle Bound grinned. "Smiling at the end of it? I admire that."
Sir George's eyes widened in shock as the temple started to shake violently, pieces of it fell as a green flash erupted again, Cold Soar taking Muscle Bound's place. "Later, loser.", he unfolded his wings and flew straight through the falling rubble, turning intangible
Sir George grinned. "Well done.", he said as he allowed the rubble to fall on him.
~
As soon as Cold Soar got out he sighed. "Let's see...", he looked at the helicopter that was completely untouched. Flying towards it he transformed into Circuit Breaker, possessing it and upgrading it. "Off I go."
Max was looking at an exhibit as Ben and Gwen weren't too far behind him, Ben was met with a smack on the back of the head. "Sup dorks, what did I miss?" Alex asked them as if he didn't just fight a dragon and a Knight in the span of an hour or two.
"Not much really. Just at this boring museum.", Ben said with an eye roll.
"Well it's not boring.", Gwen said as she lightly pushed Ben. Alex looked up at one of the exhibits, which was an early roman mural that had a very familiar Knight on it.
