Lake Eerie
Out by the water, sitting down on a lawn chair next to a parked Rustbucket was Ben. He had driven all the way here from DC without any sleep and was taking this time to do nothing but nap and catch up on his sleep. While Ben did that the girls had gone off to do whatever. Ben didn't exactly care as long as they didn't do anything stupid or reckless and let him sleep. Over with the girls, Allie was sitting on the dock feeding the fish some bread. While she was doing, the water bellow began to bubble causing the fish to swim away.
It was then that a large figure began to rise up from the waters, it was covered in muck and slime and was making a low growling sound
"Boo!!!" The figure said trying to scare Allie
"Hey there Rose" Allie said
"You are definitely no fun" Rose said wiping the muck off of her face
"You went with a Petrosapien form to scare her?" Lilly asked Rose as she walked out onto the dock
"It's not like I have a Piscciss Volan form" Rose said as she climbed up on the dock
"I hope you know that all of that isn't going to wash out" Lilly said
Rose then transformed back to normal and found that she was still covered in the muck from the bottom of the lake. She lifted her arm up and smelled herself before immediately pinching her nose.
"Told you so" Lilly said
"Whatever, why don't you try it" Rose said hugging Lilly, covering her in the muck
"This is so gross, I am so telling Ben" Lilly said as she pushed Rose into the water
Rose splashed around as she resurfaced, she then spat out some water
"That was so not cool, I hope you know this means war" Rose said with a glare
Before Rose and Lilly could start to fight amongst themselves, there was a flash of green light that caught their attention. They both looked over and saw that Allie had transformed into her version of Ben's Wildvine form. It looked like a female Florauna with a dark shade of green color.
"Both of you need to take a break" Allie said as she stretched out her vine like arms
Allie then wrapped her vine arms around the waists of Rose and Lilly, slowly lifting them up into the air
"Allie what are you doing?" Rose asked as she kicked the air
"Come on Allie, don't do this" Lilly said
"Like I said, both of you need to take a break" Allie said
"Please don't" Lilly begged
"Throw her, not me" Rose said
"Get some air you two" Allie said before she used her strength to throw both of her sisters
Once Rose and Lilly were out of view, Allie transformed back to normal and sat down on the dock. She then took out some bread and began to toss pieces of it into the water. All of the small fish returned and began to eat it like the had before.
"Don't worry, those two won't bother us" Allie told the fish
A large pair of glowing eyes could be seen in the water as a shadow appeared under the surface of the water
"Don't worry, there is plenty enough for you" Allie said
Time Skip
As Ben woke up from his nap, he saw Rose and Lilly falling down from the sky, he closed his eyes as they crashed next to him
"Let me guess, you bothered your sister?" Ben asked the two
"I'm not even going to answer" Rose said as she got up off the ground
"I'll take that as a yes" Ben said as he stretched
"Sorry if we woke you up" Lilly said
"Don't worry, you didn't, I just woke up when I saw you two flying in" Ben said with a chuckle
"Don't laugh" Rose said as she dusted herself off
"So, how long are we going to stay here?" Lilly asked Ben
"We are staying here for at least three days, I actually want to enjoy the lake unlike the last time I went to a lake" Ben answered remembering his past summer at the lake
"What happened the last time you went to a lake?" Both girls asked confused
"Let's just say that there was a really big fish and a few not so good people" Ben answered with a nervous chuckle
Just then Allie came walking down the path to the Rustbucket, when Rose and Lilly saw her, they ran over to give her some choice words. Before an argument or a fight could break out, Ben made sure to step in.
"Hey Ben what are we going to do for dinner?" Lilly asked Ben
"I'm thinking we have some burgers for dinner tonight" Ben answered
"Can I give some to my new friend?" Allie asked
"I don't see why not, but make sure its okay with whoever they are with" Ben answered
"Aww, Allie made her first friend" Lilly said hugging her little sister
"Good for you Allie" Rose said
"I'll make sure to go and see if it's okay" Allie said
Time Skip
Later that night Ben had made plenty of burgers while Lilly and Rose cut up vegetables to put on the burgers. Allie sat by the fire and toasted the buns for the burgers. Eventually once everything was done, Ben prepped the burgers for everyone to eat.
"Hey Allie, where's your little friend?" Ben asked as he prepared a burger
Allie just shrugged her shoulders
"That's a bummer, I really wanted to meet your new friend" Lilly said
"Well, if they can't come over here then I don't see why you can't bring over some food to them" Ben said
"I can do that" Allie said
"How many burgers do you think they'd like?" Ben asked Allie
Allie shrugged her shoulders
"Well, I'll put some on a plate, you let me know when its enough" Ben said
Ben then began to put made burgers on the tray, waiting for Allie to let him know when there was enough on the plate. As Ben put burger after burger on the plate until it was almost completely full.
"That's enough" Allie said as she stopped Ben
"Okay then, you go and take these to your friend, make sure to come right back" Ben told Allie
Allie nodded her head and grabbed the plate, she then walked out of the campsite and left to wherever her friend was. As Allie left, Lilly and Rose looked over at each other.
"Follow her?" Rose asked
"Lets" Lilly answered
"Hey uh Ben, Lilly and I are gonna go skip rocks or something down by the water" Rose said to Ben making up a lie
"Sure thing, just be careful and bring a towel if you get wet" Ben said as he began to eat a burger
"Will do" Lilly said as she grabbed two towels
Both girls then quickly ran off after Allie who was ahead of them
Time Skip
Down by the lake both Lilly and Rose were sneaking through the bushes looking for Allie. They were able to catch up with her and managed to follow her all the way here. Allie had gone all the way down to the dock instead of some campsite. Both Lilly and Rose were a bit confused by this, they thought they were going to go to another campsite to see Allie's new friend. Allie instead was sitting down with her feet in the water tossing burgers in.
"What do you think she's doing?" Rose asked Lilly whispering
"I don't know, just keep watching" Lilly answered whispering
"It clearly looks like she's throwing food away" Rose said whispering
"But what is she throwing it away to?" Lilly asked whispering
The girls peered out through the bushes and saw a dark figure under the surface of the water. As Allie threw burgers in they'd quickly sink under the water as if something was eating them.
"My big brother made them, you're lucky he's a good cook and also that he decided to go with something normal" Allie said to whatever was in the water
As Allie continued to throw more burgers into the water and talk to whatever was in there, both Lilly and Rose decided to come out and see what Allie was talking to
"Okay Allie, enough talking to water" Rose said as she came out of the bushes
"Ben is going to be so mad that you lied to him" Lilly said
As the two got on the dock and got closer to Allie, she made a motion with her hand. It was then that a large figure made a giant splash in the water as it swam away. Both Lilly and Rose were surprised to see that, they ended up falling backwards. Allie walked up to them and saw the surprised looks on their faces.
"You ok?" Allie asked them
"What the heck was that thing?" Rose asked Allie
"Yeah, what was that thing?" Lilly asked
"That was my new friend" Allie answered
"We've got to tell Ben about that" Rose said
"Please don't" Allie begged
"Okay, just this once" Lilly said
"I think we should tell him" Rose said
"Big brother can't know" Allie said
"Why? Its not like he'll try to go Ahab on the thing" Rose said
"I hate to say this but she's right, Ben needs to know about that thing" Lilly said
"But you said we wouldn't tell him" Allie replied
"I know I did but thinking about it now, we don't know what that thing was and what to do with it" Lilly said
"Please don't tell him" Allie said begging her sisters
Both Lilly and Rose looked and saw the face that Allie was giving them
"Please" Allie begged
"FINE!!!" Both girls said giving in to their sister's begging
Time Skip
It was early the next day, the sun had gone up and Ben and the girls were about to board a boat. The boat was going to take them fishing out on the lake. Since last night, Lilly and Rose were nervous about being on the lake since Allie's "friend" was out there. They still hadn't told Ben about it since Allie made them promise not to tell him and they were keeping to it. However both of them made Allie promise to tell Ben if her friend decided to show up.
"Alrighty then, this will be the spot, each of ya will cast your lines on each side of the boat" the captain told them
Ben grabbed his fishing pole and went over to the side of the boat and casted a line into the water. Lilly and Rose did the same thing as Ben while Allie went over and watched them.
"This little one isn't interested in fishing?" The captain asked
"Allie? No, she's weird when it comes to this kind of thing" Rose answered
"Rose, don't say that about your sister" Ben said scolding Rose
"Sorry but it's true" Rose said as she went back to fishing
"I don't mind eating fish but I just don't like the process in which they're caught" Allie said
"Understandable little las" the captain said as he went back to the wheel of the boat
As everyone continued to fish, Lilly and Rose saw a giant shadow swim under the boat. Immediately they got Allie's attention and made her walk over to the railing and look into the water. The shadow began to circle around the boat, kind of like a shark.
"That isn't him" Allie said
"Oh no" Rose said
At that moment, something grabbed ahold of Ben's line and began to pull on it
"Hey, looks like I caught a big one" Ben said as he began to reel whatever was on the end of his line
As Ben began to struggle to reel in his line, whatever was on the other end began to pull. It pulled and pulled till Ben almost fell of the boat until his pole was ripped out of his hands.
"Looks like that one didn't want to be caught" the captain said patting Ben on the back
"How much do I owe you for the pole?" Ben asked the captain
"Don't worry about it" the captain answered
As Ben and the captain continued to talk, something began to make them boat shake. Whatever it was, it was big and it was about to completely sink the boat.
"Girls get over to me" Ben said
Lilly, Rose and Allie ran over to Ben as the left anchor began to be pulled forwards
"It's got the anchor" the captain said
"What do we do?" Lilly asked
"We hold on" Ben answered
Whatever was under the water was pulling the boat by the anchor all over the lake
"Ben, you need to do something" Rose said
"Your right, this needs to stop now" Ben said
As Ben was about to do something, the boat came to a sudden and complete stop
"I think it's over" Ben said
A loud noise could be heard coming from the water, Lilly and Rose looked over at Allie
"It isn't him" she said
At that moment a large reptilian creature jumped out of the water and over the boat. Ben and the others watched in awe as the creature landed back in the water creating a massive wave that splashed them all. Before any of them could process what happened, a tentacle came out of the water and wrapped itself around Allie's waist.
"Big brother" Allie said as she was pulled into the water
Lilly, Rose and Ben tried to save Allie but they were too late, she was pulled into the water
"We've got to go and save her" Lilly said
"Way to state the obvious" Rose said
"You two stay here" Ben said as he activated the omnitrix
In an instant Ben transformed into Ripjaws, his Piscis Volan form and was about to jump into the water when Lilly and Rose stopped him
"Let us help you" they both said
"Sorry girls but neither of you have a form for the water" Ben said
"Please" both of them pled
"No can do, this is different" Ben said as he jumped into the water
Before Ben went down, he looked over at the captain who was still confused by what was going on
"I'll pay you for the damages back at the docks" Ben told him before he went under the water
Rose and Lilly watched as Ben went off to save Allie, the two then looked at one another
"We need to do something, he needs our help" Rose said
"We can't stay here and do nothing" Lilly said
"Lets go and save our sister" Rose said
Both girls, lifted up their omnitrix and activated, they scrolled through their playlists and selected an alien to transform into. Rose transformed into her own Necrofriggian transformation. It looked like Ben's but it had more feminine features and its blue looked more lighter.
"Glacial" Rose said as she unfolded her wings and went into the water
Lilly had transformed into her own Cerebrocrustacian form, it looked like a smaller and more feminine version of Ben's Brainstorm transformation
"Neuroshock" Lilly said as she jumped into the water
Time Skip
Underwater Cave
The sea monster had taken Allie to a hidden underwater cave, seeing it now, Allie could see that the creature. It looked like a giant snake like creature with multiple tongues coming out of its mouth. As Allie laid on the ground she looked around and saw piles of bones both small and large and from all sorts of creatures.
"I'm not going to be an easy meal" Allie said
The creature let out a loud hissing roar and slammed its tail down next to Allie. Allie not wanting to give up so easily activated her omnitrix and transformed into an alien. Allie had transformed into a Basalt, a rock like alien that Ben called Rocks. Allie's looked likes Ben's but was more slender and had feminine features. Also, the coloring of Allie's transformation was more of a brick red then Ben's yellow color.
"Time for a Rockslide" Allie said
The creature let out its hissing noise and went to attack Allie, but before it could, something grabbed it and pulled it back. Allie looked over and saw Ben as Ripjaws jump out from the water and punch the serpent in the face.
"No one eats my little sister" Ben said as he landed next to Allie
"You made it" Allie said
"Hopefully I made it in time" Ben said
The snake creature let out a hissing noise as it shot out all of its tongues at Ben and Allie. A few of them wrapped around Ben's arms and legs while some wrapped up Allie. Ben used his sharp teeth and strong jaws to bite through the tentacle like tongues. The creature let out a roar of pain as Ben did that to each tongue. Allie used her powers to cause parts of the cavern ceiling to fall on the creature.
"Careful, don't want to cause a collapse down here" Ben said
"Sorry" Allie said as she stopped using her powers
The snake creature quickly went back under the water, leaving Ben and Allie by themselves. Ben knew that the creature hadn't just swam away, he didn't ease up just up. Like he had predicted, the snake creature had emerged from the water. This time it began to shot large torrents of water out of its mouth at Ben and Allie. Ben stood in front of Allie and took the full force of the attack.
"The water, the water, its hot, so hot" Ben said as the water began to burn him
"We've got you" an eerie voice said
It was at that moment that the center of the snake began to freeze solid as a figure floated out of its body. It was Rose in her Necrofriggian transformation, she had made it just in time. As Rose landed down next to Ben and Allie, green electricity began to shock the snake creature. As it fell back, Lilly in her Cerebrocrustacian form scuttled out of the water.
"It appears that this fowl serpent couldn't handle the superior electrical intellect of a far more intelligent being" Lilly said
"You were late, you don't get to brag" Rose said
"It appears as though you've forgotten that I possess a higher intellect, not speed" Lilly replied
"Both of you knock it off, that thing isn't defeated yet" Ben told the two
The snake serpent, lifted its long and slender body up out of the water and glared at Ben and the girls. It let out a loud hissing sound as it puffed its neck up.
"Brace for impact" Ben said
Just then the creature fired a massive spray of boiling water at Ben and the girls. Ben tried to take the full force of the blast to protect the girls but he couldn't do it for long. Rose used her frost breath to try and freeze the water but it wasn't effective. Eventually the water died down, steam was coming off of Ben and the girl's bodies.
"Hey Allie, could you tell your friend to cut it out and let us go?" Rose asked Allie
"What do you mean friend?" Ben asked confused
"It's a long story" Lilly answered
"We'll tell you about it later" Rose said
"Guys, that thing isn't my friend" Allie said
"Then what is it?" Rose asked
"It's clearly an unknown extraterrestrial creature and not a natural creature that is found in the lake" Lilly answered
"It was probably smuggled here from Piscciss or another water planet" Ben said
"Well either way, it isn't going to let us go" Rose said
As the snake creature went to attack Ben and the girls once more, Allie made a whistling noise. It was at that moment that a different noise could be heard from the water. Before the snake creature could react, another large creature jumped out of the water and began to fight the snake creature. It looked like a kraken, the creature that Ben had met when he was 10. The kraken began to take the snake creature down to the bottom and didn't come up till it was over.
"Looks like the snake creature is no more" Lilly said
"Thanks to Shamu here" Ben said
The creature made a noise when Ben said that
"He doesn't like being called that" Allie said
"Okay then" Ben said
"I think we should get out of here before this place collapses" Rose said
Ben looked around and saw that the underwater cave was becoming unstable and was going to collapse at any moment
"That would be an excellent idea" Ben said as he jumped into the water
Time Skip
Lake Eerie
Back on the shore, Ben and the girls had made it safely out of the underwater cave. Now Ben was having Allie explain to her why she didn't tell him about her friend. Lilly and Rose also had to explain to Ben why they lied to him about it as well. Once they had completely explained their side of the story, it was all left to Allie explain her side.
"I didn't want to tell you because I was afraid of what you'd do to him" Allie told Ben
"I still don't know why you didn't tell me about him" Ben said
"She thought you'd go full on Ahab and hunt the thing like it was Moby Dick" Rose explained
"I still don't know how you know about that" Lilly said
"I read when I get bored, I also keep giant alien sea monsters a secret from Ben from time to time" Rose said sarcastically
"Look, none of that matters now, the day is over and we're all safe" Ben said
"I'm sorry I lied to you, I was scared" Allie said
"Don't worry about it, you did what you thought was right, there's no harm in that, just next time tell me when its something like this" Ben said
"Okay big brother, I will do that" Allie said
The kraken emerged from the water and began to play with Allie's head a bit and drip water on Mutt who was in Allie's arms. Mutt jumped out and ran over to Ben, shaking the water off him first.
"Now on to you" Ben said looking at the kraken
The kraken made a noise and used one of its tendrils to pat Ben on the head
"He says you helped his mother save him when he was an egg" Allie said
"Wait, your mother was the kraken I helped all those summers ago?" Ben asked
The kraken made a noise
"He says he hatched not too long after you helped saved him, his egg smelled like you as did his mother, that's why he was able to remember you" Allie said
"Looks like you and your siblings moved to different lakes when you got older" Ben said
"His brother and sister are in the other great lakes while his mother is in the same one" Allie said
"That is great to hear, I always wondered what happened after that day" Ben said
As the sound of a car driving by could be heard, the kraken patted Allie on the head and swam off back into the lake. It was a sheriff who had driven up towards Ben and the girls.
"What seems to be the problem here officer?" Ben asked as the sheriff got out of his car
"We heard that there was a disturbance" the sheriff answered
"Sorry to say this but nothing is going on" Ben said
"Well, just answer some questions while I fill out the paperwork" the officer said
"Sure thing" Ben said as he walked over to the sheriff
Allie looked back and saw the shadow of her friend in the water
"See you later" Allie said whispering before the kraken swam off for good
"I wonder where we're going next" Rose said
"Let's hope it's somewhere normal" Lilly said
"I could do with normal" Allie said
The girls laughed as they walked over to where Ben was, answering the sheriff's questions
A/N: Looks like Allie made a new friend and the girls got to show off some more of their transformations. I hope all of you readers liked this chapter and want to see more like it in the future. Sorry this is coming out around 12 but I was having some problems trying to publish this chapter. Luckily, I fixed that problem and you are getting it now instead of next week. As for what is going on, I know this episode resembled the third episode of the first series. I admit I copied it a bit but a lot of these episodes will be like this.
Why? Because that was how I want this story to be, I wanted it to mirror Ben's greatest summer vacation just a little bit. This time however things are different as you have seen so far. Now, thank you for reading and for your support, I will be seeing you all later
