Chapter 2. Finding the horror
It took the rust bucket 3 months to get to the Desert and it took 6 more weeks for them to be able to find the correct location but once they got there several questions had been raised for one how had Ben kept the Omnitrix sending out a signal and secondly what had happened to this place because as soon as the Rust Bucket stopped all the two could do was stare at the once white lab because know it was anything but the walls were covered in sand while some of the walls had holes in them letting in the desert but what made the place creepy was the fact that the walls were covered in scorch marks and there on the ground was several dead robots
"Seems Vilgax beat us here hopefully Ben's holding his own in there for now" Max said walking out of the rust bucket with one of his plumber guns while Gwen walked out with her magic book open and ready
"Grampa do you think Ben's okay" Gwen asked following her Grandpa as he entered the building
"I'm sure he's" Max was saying till his flashlight landed on something and Gwen screamed and all Max Could do was stare because there on the ground was a dead body the person's throat looked to have been ripped out and what's more was the fact that there were small bite marks on what was left of his neck
"What happened to him" Gwen asked turning a bit green this caused Max to realize that this was technically the first dead human body that she had ever seen and what's more was that his starring wasn't going to help
"Uh it looks like some kind of animal ripped out this guy's throat hopefully whatever did this is long gone" Max said bending but he froze when he heard Gwen give a eep and looking up he saw more bodies each with their throats slit some even didn't have there heads attached anymore but the worst part was the fresh dead robot that was still leaking oil on the floor from what could only have been the same thing that killed these people
"Gwen go back to the Rust Bucket I'll handle this okay" Max said charging up his gun as Gwen almost numbly nodded as she backed away from the massacre there there was so much blood everywhere
"Gwen Gwen" Max said breaking Gwen out of her shock
"Go back to the Rv I'll look around for Ben you know that whatever this thing is wouldn't have been able to hurt your cousin much not with the omnitrix" Max said and slowly nodding Gwen retreated back the way they came trying her best to hold in her stomach but right before she could leave the building there was a flash of red light and one of the robots reactivated and started heading straight for Gwen instantly Max tried to aim for the machine but Gwen was in his way of the shot and before it could swing a blade down at Gwen and before she could read a page from her book something dark and shadowy came racing out of the darkness and with the glint of some kind of blade slices the machine's head off before the creature raced off once more leaving Gwen staring slack jawed as the machine that had almost killed her slowly fell over oil soaring out of its neck before it fell with a crash on the ground
"What was that" Gwen finally said looking after the retreating creature
"I don't know didn't get a good look at it but whatever it was I'm just thankful it saved you" Max said before she turned toward the door only to freeze as he noticed it shut tight
"Or maybe it just wanted to mess with us" Max said looking at the door that had previously been wide open
"Huh sounds like something Ben would do" Gwen said but Max had already shook his head
"No whatever that was it was way too short to be Ben heh if I didn't know any better I would of thought I that it was a really small child" Max said looking at where the thing had gone
"Either way it locked us in here that doors not going to be moving anytime soon so we might as well continue forward and Gwen stick by my side" Max said looking at the pale girl who nodded as she followed him past the corpses trying her best not to puke at the smell of their body's decomposing and as they went deeper in the found more bodies and even more Robots as well and just in case Max shot any and all of the robots that didn't have its head cut off as the pair walked deeper inside not noticing the green eyes watching after them or the worried frown on said persons face
With Kevin
It had taken the mutated kid some time to get to Ben's location what with the fact that he had to walk and fly to get there and because of his size he also had to take several breaks from flying but even he was surprised when he noticed the Rust Bucket parked outside the lab
"Huh they are here hmm well then Benjy lets see what you've been up too" Kevin said flying into one of the holes in the building and as he walked inside Kevin had to freeze up when he spotted some dead bodies and while living on the streets did course this sight to be common for the mutated kid what wasn't was the very animal like behavior of these kills
"Huh well this is interesting wonder what Tennyson is doing in a place like" Kevin was saying till a very familiar crystal went flying toward his face and he instantly ducted as the crystal went flying past his head embedding into the wall behind him as he glared forward
"Well well Tennyson not even going to say hello to a old friend" Kevin growled with a smile on his face but that smile faltered when he noticed what exactly had sent that crystal at him it was too small to be Ben and what's more it was covered in a old blanket as if hiding itself but the creepiest part was the large smile on the kid as its green eyes flared with a hidden light
"Ohohhehehehahhah hehehehllo theretherehehehe yyyoyoyou want to have sososome Fun hehehhehehahhahhah" it laughed it's smile widening before with a eerily familiar ding it changed its right arm transforming into the same crystal as what had been thrown at Kevin and right before it crashed into him the thing disappeared with a glitch laugh as Kevin shook on the spot
"What the fuck was that" Kevin asked looking around before with a resounding whimper racing out of the place not even noticing as his blood dripped as it went plob Olin on the ground as his shoulder bleed from being cut lightly on the blade no Kevin was too busy running from whatever hell that place was but he wasn't fast enough for one last thing
"Hehehehahhaha Ben is gone Ben is gone hehehehhhehaahahah and I am all that remains hehehhhehhehahhahahh" the voice that creepy glitch voice it repeated over and over inside Kevin's head as he ran it screamed these word inside his mind and soon enough as he slowed to a walk far away from the base Kevin started to repeat the words
"Ben is gone Ben is gone Ben... is... gone..."
