Somewhere in Texas, a construction crew were working at an oil mine. Some of the construction workers were drilling in a certain section when the drill suddenly stalled.
"Something's wrong," the manager said.
The drill immediately seized up and the ground around immediately cracked and shifted around it.
"Run!"
The construction workers immediately ran away from the site as the tower caved in under them along with a huge section of the ground. Luckily, they were able to escape in time.
The workers looked back and gazed at the crater that had formed. From the crater, a plume of fire shot up from the ground under them before forming the face of a demon as they died out. From the flames a grey rocky mask with yellow sides and green gem eyes appeared and fell to the ground in front of them, the eyes glowing for a second as they looked at it in curiosity.
The Rust Bucket was parked somewhere in the desert as the Tennysons sat at the table eating soup while Allison was in the kitchen section cooking something else up.
"Well, what do you think?" Max asked. "Bet you never tasted anything like that before."
Ben, Jen and Gwen were eating when they detected something crunchy in the soup, which caught their attention.
"What's the crunchy stuff?" Jen asked.
"Dung beetles."
That immediately caught their disgust as they immediately spat the soup out and Jen used her telekinesis to levitate their soup out of the window as Allison sighed from the kitchen.
"What? Too spicy?" Max asked. "You'll get used to it."
"You're lucky I went along for the ride," she said as she whipped up the custard for the French toast she was making. "I am not eating anything of Max's. No offense."
"Yeah," Gwen agreed. "You're a really good cook, Allison."
"Thanks, Gwen. I've had to provide for myself and Kevin ever since we ran away from home. You pick up some stuff from working in restaurants to get money."
She then dipped the bread in her custard as she heated up a pan on the stove with a smile.
Suddenly, an alarm sounded in the RV and from one of the cabinets, a moniter came down that showed the mask from before on it as the twins ducked out of the way.
Max gained a shocked look on his face. "No."
"Grandpa? What is it?" Ben asked.
"The Mask of Ah Puch," Max said, turning the monitor to them. "It's the key to the most powerful and destructive weapon ever created."
Later, the Rust Bucket drove along the road with Ben in the front seat and Jen, Gwen and Allison eating their breakfast that Allison cooked up: French toast with bacon and eggs.
"Finally, I can actually eat something in this RV," Gwen said as Allison smiled as they ate.
"Awesome!" Jen cheered as she ate her bacon. "It's nice to have someone along for the ride who can actually cook."
"You'll never go hungry as long as I'm here," Allison promised with a smile as she listened to her music on her phone and sighed.
"The Mask of Ah Puch is the guide to the Sword of Ek Chuaj," Max explained to Ben. "The Plumbers searched for it for decades without any luck."
"Ek Chuaj?" Ben asked. "What kind of alien is that?"
"Not alien. Mayan. Ek Chuaj was the Mayan god of war. His sword was rumored to have leveled cities with just one swipe."
"Ha!" Ben said. "Sounds like just the kind of thing the world's most powerful 10-year-old boy should have."
"This is no toy, Benjamin," Max said, a serious look on his face. "Whoever controls the sword controls the destiny of mankind. And I will not let it fall into the wrong hands."
The kids looked at each other, concerned. They had never seen their grandfather this serious over anything before. Not even when they faced Vilgax.
After about an hour, they arrived at the oil mine where the mask was discovered.
"I'll bet they're keeping it in the basement," Max said. "Ben, Jen, you two go alien and sneak in and open the side door for us."
"Sneak in?" Ben asked. "Don't you mean break in?"
"Ben," Allison said. "I haven't how time to explain to you how important it is for us to get the mask."
"He's right," Allison said. "If what Max says is true, then it's kind of important for us to do all we can to not attract attention."
"Now can we count on you?" Max asked as the twins nodded.
"You know you can, Grandpa," Jen said with a nervous look on her face.
Max nodded and got out of the driver's seat and went to the back of the Rust Bucket.
"What's up with Grandpa?" Ben asked the others. "He's so... intense."
"Cut him some slack, will you?" Gwen asked. "He's trying to save the world."
"I know that I would be that intense if the world was on my shoulders," Allison said. "And you know you would too."
The twins shrugged as they activated their Omnitrixes with a nod as they highlighted Grey Matter and Frostblight with a nod.
"It's showtime, bro," Jen said as they slammed the cores down together.
The Omnitrix sank into Ben's wrist as his hands and feet grew grey-blue and slimy as they secreted mucus from his pores and only had four fingers and three toes. The Omnitrix symbol grew on his back and the blue spread to the rest of his skin as his eyes grew huge and buggy, taking up the entire upper half of his face as the pupils turned sideways and rectangular and his mouth was filled with sharp teeth. His hair and nose vanished as he shrunk to three inches tall. His attire shifted to a green one-piece bodysuit that fit his body with wraps around his feet. He struck a pose as the transformation finished.
The Omnitrix sank into Jen's wrist as her skin turned an icy blue and started radiating cold air and she shut her eyes closed and when they opened, they revealed bright glowing pink eyes with no pupils and her hair shifted into blue spiky hair like ice. Her clothes then shifted to a pink ballerina-like outfit complete with the skirt and flat pink shoes. Her body then shrank to 3 inches high and a pair of insect wings like a pixie grew out of her back. The watch symbol appeared on the belt of her skirt. She pirouetted on one foot before striking a pose like a ballerina as the transformation finished.
Grey Matter and Frostblight then flew/hopped out of the RV with a glare as they snuck past the guards as they saw the pipe leading to the guard station's gutter.
"Ladies first," Grey Matter said with a polite bow.
"Oh, Ben, how thoughtful of you," Frostblight said with a fake posh accent as she flew up the gutter followed by her brother as he climbed up.
The others examined this from the Rust Bucket as Gwen looked on, concerned.
"I know that Ben can be a major doofus, but don't you think you were a little..."
"You're just kids," Max said. "I don't expect you to understand."
"Max, I'm 13 years old," Allison said. "I understand plenty."
The twins got into the station through the drain pipe as Grey Matter removed the drain and Frostblight flew out as she sighed once she saw some chewed gum on her brother's head.
"Oh man!" he groaned as he removed the gum. "I should've just gone Cannonbolt and busted my way in."
"As much as I know we need to be sneaky in this situation, do I look like I would want to go into a drain pipe with this dress on?" Frostblight groaned. She then gained a stunned look of fear as she pointed behind her brother with a silent "Meep."
Grey Matter looked behind him to see a German Shepard with a spiked collar snarling and growling at them, slobber drooling from the mouth. They looked behind to see another guard dog and they gasped.
"Ah!" he shouted.
Frostblight grabbed her brother and flew him up as the dogs bonked their heads together as they flew out of the room, not looking back.
Once they were out of the door, Grey Matter grabbed a janitor's bucket and closed the door with it, barricading it.
"Just in case," Frostblight said as she flew up to the doorknob and touched it, freezing it solid. "Who are the big dogs now?"
They then ran off for the basement.
Speaking of which, the others were standing outside of the cellar door waiting patiently.
"Why don't I just absorb the metal and bust us in?" Allison asked.
"And draw attention to us? I don't think so," Max said as the knob turned and the twins swung out. "It's about time."
Max entered as Gwen picked up Grey Matter and Allison picked up Frostblight before they gave a sniff to them.
"Why do you two smell like dog slobber?"
They then entered the cellar and closed the door behind them as a familiar black limousine pulled up behind them.
Once inside, they walked through the halls, Max taking the lead as they looked for the mask.
Gwen looked on concerned along with her cousins as they looked to each other.
"Have you ever seen Grandpa this serious?" Gwen asked.
"We've never seen anyone this serious," Frostblight said.
They entered a room on the left side of the hall and saw a safe at the end of the room.
"It has to be in here," Max said.
"I'm on it," Grey Matter said as he hopped to the door of the safe pressed his ear to it to hear the tumblers and Frostblight flew over and started adjusting the knob. Grey Matter then gave a thumbs up with a smile.
"Good job, you two," Allison said.
Max turned the safe's wheel and opened it to find the Mask of Ah Puch. "Beautiful, isn't it?" he asked.
"Uh, well... not exactly," Frostblight said.
"Over forty years of searching and now, finally, you're all..."
Suddenly, they heard a shuffling of metallic boots in the hall and they gasped as they looked to see some familiar armored faces.
"I thought you'd retired from the Plumbing business, Mr. Tennyson. Or may I call you Max?"
"It's Enoch and those Forever Knights guys who tried to slice and dice me!" Grey Matter exclaimed.
"You know them?" Allison asked.
"All too well," Frostblight glared.
"How nice of you to remember," Enoch said. "And, of course, how could I forget the family who left the Forever Knights without a castle?"
"Whatever happened, you brought upon yourselves," Max scolded.
"Quite the feisty sewer rat, aren't we?" Enoch mocked. "I'd love to chat about old times, but I'm afraid I'm late for holding the world at my mercy. So, I'll be taking that mask now."
"Over my dead body," Max said.
"Excellent suggestion," Enoch said before gesturing to his knight guards. "Gentlemen?"
The guards reached into their trench coats and pulled out two energy swords and advanced towards the others.
"It's go time!" Allison said as she reached out and touched the safe and coated herself in its metal and morphed her hands into blades and glared.
Suddenly, the security guard burst into the room.
"What's going on in here?"
Acting quickly, Frostblight inhaled a breath and froze the ground at the guards feet and Grey Matter leaped onto Enoch's mask-covered face, causing him to stumble back.
"Run!"
The others ran past the room as the guards slipped and fell on the ice, knocking down the security guard as they ran away.
Angry, Enoch pulled and pried Grey Matter off of him, sending him sprawling across the desk, knocking over several office supplies and sending him dangling off the edge. Unfortunately, he also knocked over a coffee mug, which landed on a button to activate the paper shredder underneath him.
"Ben!" Frostblight shouted.
The others were being chased by the newly recovered guards down the halls as Enoch went out of the room.
"Wait!" he said as he gestured to the divided hallway. "This way."
They then ran the other way in an attempt to intersect them.
Grey Matter struggled as he was holding onto some papers, which were knocked loose into the shredder.
Frostblight then flew over and grabbed him, flying him to the ground. "There's no way I'm letting my brother wind up as alien coleslaw!"
They then saw another drainage pipe along as sister gestured to brother. Grey Matter hopped into the pipe, followed by his sister.
The security guard recovered and grabbed his walkie-talkie. "We've got burglars. Seal the exits."
An alarm sounded through the building as Max, Gwen and Allison ran up the stairwell and ran to the exit, only to see a security guard posted at it.
"Wrong way," Max said as they continued down the hall.
Suddenly, a grappling claw shot out and grabbed the mask out of Max's hand and pulled it back to Enoch.
"Your loss is my gain, Tennyson," he said as he and his guards ran off into the shadows.
Max, Gwen and Allison looked to see the exit being sealed by a metal door frame.
"Grab on," Max said as his granddaughter grabbed his hand and Allison absorbed the metal from a nearby fire extinguisher.
They all slid through on their bellies and Allison on her back before the door closed on her leg.
"Allison!" Gwen shouted as Allison smirked as she put her hand under the frame with a smile and lifted it back up.
"Always good to have a backup plan, Gwen," she said as she put the door down after she freed her leg and they ran off.
The twins crawled through the pipelines as they heard the Omnitrixes beeping down just as they escaped. They timed out as they landed in the dumpster, a banana peel landing on Ben's head.
"I hate it when this happens," Ben groaned as Jen got out.
"I'm going to have to burn this set when I get back home," she groaned.
That was just as the Rust Bucket pulled up next to the dumpster as Jen helped her brother out.
"We don't have time to fool around, you two. Get in!"
A figure with pale white skin like ash wearing armor and a loincloth and a red tattoo covering his chest up to his left eye peeked out from behind the building with a glare as he glared after them.
Enoch examined the mask in his limo as he chuckled mischievously.
One of the guards looked out of his rearview mirror to see the Rust Bucket pulling up beside them.
Max pressed a button, which flipped the radio to the weapons systems. He pressed a button, which engaged the ramming feature on the RVs bumper.
Enoch looked out the window just as they were rammbed by the RV.
The guard engaged a few buttons on the controls as the trunk opened and an automatic saw blade popped out and started cutting at the bumper as the others looked worried.
"Come on! Wilcat, Ripjaws, somebody!"
"We're trying, but these stupid watches won't let us!" Jen shouted as the watches were still recharging. "All we can do right now is this!"
They pressed the buttons on the Omnitrixes which activated their Omni Suits.
Max glared. "This is a job for a Plumber."
He pressed another button that glowed yellow.
"Auto-driver engaged."
He got out of his seat and walked to the end of the RV.
"Uh, Grandpa?" Ben asked.
Max said nothing as he entered the bathroom.
"Guess when you gotta go, you gotta go," Allison shrugged.
The limo hit the brakes and backed up so that it was behind the Rust Bucket. Then, the two silver knights got out of the car and approached the back of the Rust Bucket, hopping up onto the roof.
As they were engaging, Enoch activated the mask and green beams emitted from the gem eyes to reveal a map, showing the location of the Sword of Ek Chuaj.
"Excellent."
The twins were still trying to activate the Omnitrixes as they glared.
"Come on! Work already!" Ben shouted as they glared.
That was when the bathroom door opened and Max emerged, clad in a very familiar blue outfit equipped with all kinds of gadgets and a red badge.
Jen then removed her Omni Suit's helmet and rubbed her eyes so she could see clearly.
"Uh, Granpda? What's with the fashion show?"
"It's my Plumbers Suit," he explained. "Been saving it for the right time."
He then looked to see the limo driving away from them.
"Like now."
He then opened the front door and saw the limo driving alongside them. He pulled out two magnetic pads and jumped for the limo and slammed the pads onto it, sticking. He then crawled for it as Jen nodded and put her helmet back on with a glare.
"We have to help him!"
"How?" Ben asked as Allison stood up and absorbed the metal from the RV's frame.
Max eyed the mask from the limo's open roofside window, but Enoch was prepared for it. He stabbed his energy sword through the roof, almost piercing Max, who fell off of the roof. Luckily, he was still holding onto the magnet pads and braced himself as he laid his foot against the side of the car.
"Well for starters, saving him from that!" Jen said as they heard a pounding from the roof and saw the Forever Knights were slamming a mace into it.
The other knight swung through the open door and glared at the four kids inside as Gwen sommersaulted under him as Allison glared and whistled.
"Hey! You want a fight, punk!" she asked, cracking her metal-coated fist. "Try picking on someone your own size!"
The knight swung down his energy sword at the teenaged girl, who ducked under it and gave him a strong uppercut to the head as she and the twins glared.
Max was still trying to get his bearings as he struggled to hold onto the pads as the limo rammed into the side of the barrier of the bridge as they crossed it, sending sparks flying everywhere.
The knight inside the Rust Bucket glared as he ran forward, only for Gwen to open the fridge with her leg, sending it slamming into his face, dazing him.
Ben and Allison nodded as Ben gave him swift punch after punch and then finally kicked him in the head as Allison reached for a pot and knocked him out the door, sending him sprawling into the road as he glared after them.
The camera pans up to a road sign saying that Mexico was still 30 miles away.
"Nice shot," Gwen and Ben said to each other as the mace finally formed a hole in the Rust Bucket's roof as they gasped.
Jen immediately ran up and thrust her hands outward, firing a pink energy beam from her hands that sent the knight hurtling off the edge of the Rust Bucket and screaming down into the river below.
Enoch kept stabbing his sword through the roof, trying to stab Max, who kept dodging every one of them before he got an idea.
He attached one of the magnetic pads to the sword, preventing Enoch from getting it out from the roof. He then crawled over to the window and grabbed the mask with the other pad and retrieved it into his grip.
Enoch immediately noticed the trick, but it was already too late. He looked out the window to see Max smirking as he shut the door to the Rust Bucket.
"I got it," he said to the others as the twins removed their battle helmets and sighed.
"That was a close one," they gasped.
Suddenly, a truck came approaching towards them and they were on the wrong side of the road!
Max immediately got into the driver's seat and turned off the autodriver.
"Hold on!" he shouted as the kids got into their seats and buckled their seatbelts, bracing for impact.
Max pressed another button, activating the Rust Bucket's back thrusters, causing them to rapidly pick up speed as the truck approached. Max then gave a sharp turn, causing them to narrowly avoid the truck as it passed them. He then pressed another button and let loose some road spikes from a hidden compartment.
Enoch's limo ran over the spikes, slashing the tires and causing him to careen into the desert ground alongside the road as he helplessly watched the Rust Bucket leave with the mask along with it. He angrily reached into his pocket and produced his phone.
"Send in the bird."
The Rust Bucket continued speeding along the road until they felt it slow down almost instantly.
"Uh-oh," Jen said, shaking her head.
Max looked down and saw the fuel gauge deplete quickly as the thrusters deactivated and the RV slowed to a stop, the engine giving out a sputter as it died.
"That sucks," Allison sighed.
"You're telling me," Ben said.
Later, Max was working to fix the RV on a workbench as he threw a wrench outwards at Gwen's feet.
"This is metric," he said. "I specifically asked for a half-inch wrench."
"Sorry, Grumpa," Gwen groaned as the twins and Allison examined the mask as Ben brought it up to his face.
Suddenly, the gem eyes glowed and shot out two rays that revealed something on the ground.
"Not now, Ben," Max groaned.
"I think that you're going to want to see this," Jen said.
Max got out from under the Rust Bucket and examined as the mask revealed what looked like an ancient Mayan temple from centuries, if not millenia ago.
"It's the map to the ancient Mayan temple of Ek Chuaj," he examined. "We need to beat the Forever Knights to that temple."
"Uh, Max, I hate to point out the obvious, but how are we supposed to get there without any form of transportation?" Allison asked.
"Leave that to us," Ben smirked as he and his sister showed their Omnitrixes.
Stinkfly and Firefly flew through the air as they closed in on a jungle-like scene with Gwen riding on Stinkfly's back, Allison riding on Firefly's back and Max being carried by both of them by one arm each.
"Ben, Jen, can't you two go any faster?" Max asked.
"I am sorry, Grandfather," Firefly said as she flapped her wings as hard as she could.
"We're not used to flying with this many people onboard," Stinkfly groaned.
They then winced as they saw the temple approaching in the distance.
"We must be close," Firefly stated before she looked and saw the Omnitrix beeping as it approached. "Oh no!"
"Brace yourselves!" Stinkfly said as the Omnitrixes timed out, sending the five of them sprawling down into the trees below before they hit the ground with a thud.
Jen groaned as she rubbed her head and Ben spat out some leaves as she looked to him.
"Ben, next time we train, we have got to work on those emergency landings," she said.
"I'll put that as a mental note," Ben said.
Little did they know, the white figure from before was watching them from a clearing as he rushed off to the temple himself.
They walked through the jungle as Jen and Allison slashed away the vines in their paths with Jen's energy slashes and Allison using her arms that she morphed into blades after absorbing the material from her crystal.
They continued until they approached a clearing where Max gasped once he saw a helicopter with the Forever Knights standing close by at the temple's entrance.
One of the knights pressed an explosive to the temple's door and ran for cover as the knights detonated it, having absolutely no effect.
"Still not open," Enoch said. "Use a bigger charge this time. Idiots."
The Tennysons and Allison nodded to each other as they ran around the temple to its side before they rushed up the steps and stopped at an ancient engraving in the Temple's wall.
"There's always a secret entrance to these temples," Max said, examining the wall.
As he walked towards the wall to examine it, Jen's eyes fell on the mask attached to his belt. She reached down and took the mask as Max felt along the wall.
"Come on, where is it?" he asked before he turned around and saw his granddaughter press the mask to her eyes, gazing at the wall. "Jen, what are you doing?"
"The mask showed us how to get to the temple, Grandpa," she explained. "Maybe it can show us how to get in."
She gazed through the gem eyes, giving everything a green tint as she saw one brick in the wall glowing a different shade than the bricks surrounding it. She then pressed the brick and it caved into the wall, which opened sideways, revealing a secret entrance.
The group then walked through the dark hallway as Jen lit up an energy ball in her hand for a light as she handed the mask to her brother.
"The sword will be in the center of the temple on the lowest floor," Max stated as he walked. "There should be some stairs nearby."
"Stairs?" Ben asked. "Oh man. Where's the express elevator when you really need it?"
They then wandered into the darkness and Max lit a torch from nearby. Unfortunately, he swung it a little too close to his grandson, who was startled and he stepped back, right above a bottomless pit in the room, which caused Jen to gasp.
"Ben!" she shouted as her eyes glowed pink and she shot her hand out.
Ben screamed as his body was engulfed in a pink aura, which lifted him back up as Grandpa shot out his hand and grabbed him, while Allison and Gwen were doing their share as well as they pulled him back, helping to lift Ben back up onto the platform.
"Thanks," Ben said.
"Phew, that was close," Max said as he picked up the mask. "Almost lost the mask."
Everyone's jaws dropped as Max walked off, mask in hand as they looked to each other.
"Okay, can you say 'obsessed?'" Gwen asked.
"Once he gets that sword, he'll be himself again, right guys?" Ben asked.
"We can only hope," Jen sighed, crossing her arms as they followed him down the wooden stairwell in the center of the pit.
"I'm not even related to him and even I'm worried," Allison said, picking up the rear.
"Stay sharp," Max said as he watched his steps carefully. "The ancient Mayans were notorious for setting..."
That was when they heard the sound of wood breaking as Jen held a broken ladder rung in her hand.
"Booby traps?"
They heard a rumbling as they heard the ceiling above start to cave in and large boulders fell from above, demolishing the staircases.
"Move it!" Max shouted as they all hurried onto the platforms.
They hurried down the staircases as fast as they could as the twins tried dialing in their Omnitrixes.
"Come on! Somebody! Anybody!" Ben said as the Omnitrix ignored him.
They continued on until they were on the last platform standing and even it started to teeter out of control as they looked to the doorway up ahead.
"Hold on!" Max shouted as he thrust his arm forward and a grappling hook launched from his wrist and stabbed into the rocky wall in front of him.
The kids grabbed ahold of him as he swung forward on the hook, launching them to the other side of the chasm as they landed in a heap and rubbed their heads from the soreness from the impact.
"Thanks, Grandpa," Gwen said as they looked ahead to see Max was already heading down the staircase at the end of the hall.
"You four coming?" he asked.
"Remember when he made this stuff fun?" Jen asked with a groan.
"I know," Ben said, bowing his head. "I miss the old Grandpa."
"Honestly, I'd eat a whole bowl of dung beetle soup if I knew it would bring him back," Gwen said. "No offense, Allison."
"None taken," she said. "I honestly feel the same way."
At long last, they reached the center of the temple. There was a pedestal with an indenture in it in the shape of the mask and a giant stone door in front of it that had the mask's symbol engraved into it.
"This is it," Max said as he approached the pedestal, mask at the ready.
Suddenly, two pairs of hands shot out and grabbed the kids, pulling them into the darkness.
Max noticed their absence and pulled out his blaster as another torch ignited in the darkness, revealing Enoch, who chuckled mischievously.
"Who says you can't get a Plumber when you need one?" he asked as his knights activated their energy swords, revealing they had Ben, Jen, Gwen and Allison at their mercy.
Max stood shaking, knowing that if he did anything, the kids were done for.
"Without you bringing the mask, we wouldn't have been able to get inside the great chamber."
Max then sighed and tossed the blaster aside as Enoch took the mask from him.
"Now, I believe it's time to toss the garbage."
Enoch led them back to the chamber with the bottomless pit, where they were at his mercy.
"Legend has it that the Eternal Pit of Despair is bottomless," Enoch said. "Let's find out."
He then ruthlessly pushed the twins into it, sending them hurtling down into the pit, screaming all the while.
"Ben! Jen!" Max shouted.
"Wouldn't want those two to get lonely," Enoch said as he gestured to his guards, who pushed the other three into the pit right after them.
As they fell down the pit, Ben and Jen nodded to each other and activated their Omnitrixes, transforming into Four Arms and Diamondhead respectively as they dug their arms into the walls of the pit, stopping their fall.
They then looked upward to see Max, Gwen and Allison falling after them. Four Arms reached out and caught Gwen and Max while Diamondhead caught Allison with her one free arm.
"Thanks," Allison said.
"No problem," Diamondhead said. "That's what friends are for."
"That's it," Gwen groaned as Four Arms tossed her on his back. "I am so going to band camp next summer."
The twins then nodded and climbed back up the pit with their brute strength.
Meanwhile, Enoch enacted his plan as he placed the mask into the pedestal.
The door suddenly shifted and swung open, revealing a chamber behind it that had the Sword of Ek Chauj sealed in a shrine in the center of the room shaped like the temple.
"Magnificent," he said. "Bring it to me."
As the guards approached the sword, they heard a sudden growling noise from somewhere in the room and immediately bared their weapons.
Little did they know, a certain white figure snuck his way into the chamber while they were distracted by this.
Four Arms and Diamondhead finally climbed up to the top of the chasm with a glare.
Max immediately re-fastened his belt and attached all of his Plumbers weapons to it, getting ready to fight.
"Grandpa," Four Arms said as he saw Gwen and Allison practically unconscious from the experience. "I think Gwen and Allison need a second to catch their breath."
"No can do," Max said. "Enoch may already be at the sword."
"Granpda, ever since that alarm went off, that sword is all you've been thinking about!" Diamondhead scolded.
"You four need to keep your eyes on the prize and remember what's important!"
"We do remember!" Four Arms said. "Do you?"
"You seemed to have been more concerned about that mask than you were about your own grandson!" Diamondhead said.
They then sighed as they ran to the sword's chamber where the Forever Knights were being tossed around like rag dolls by some kind of huge monster with purple skin, red eyes and pointed ears. He wears a mask on the upper part of his face and is toothless. He also wears what appeared to be a pair of circular earrings. His clothing consists of a blue ancient Maya garb with yellow lining and a blue loincloth. His bare left thigh, left wrist and knee are covered with linen bandages. He dons a gold bracelet on his right hand and a leg ring on his left foot. Attached to the hem of his sleeves are leaves of some sort. He has a pair of crimson eyes and moves on bare feet with small sharp nails. He has a very long tongue.
"Why does that thing look familiar?" Allison asked.
"It must be Ah Puch, the Mayan god of death and the underworld," Max summarized. "He's the guardian of the Sword of Ek Chuaj."
"Why can't these places ever be protected by like, I don't know, the Guardian of cheerfulness?" Gwen asked. "Is that too much to ask?"
"I think that would make it too easy," Diamondhead said.
"I think we should count ourselves lucky," Four Arms said. "It looks like he's taking out the bad guys for us."
"Ben, Jen, you two keep him occupied while we get the sword," Max said as he, Gwen and Allison ran off, Allison absorbing the stone from the walls as she glared.
Ah Puch finished off laying the smackdown on the knights before he looked to see the others climbing up the steps to the sword.
"Yo, Rat Puke!" Four Arms shouted, catching the Mayan god's attention. "Come and get some!"
Ah Puch glared as he leaped towards the twins.
Diamondhead slammed her fist into the ground, sending a large crystal up, which Ah Puch smashed through as he tackled them into the wall.
Four Arms and Diamondhead laid a smack down on him and wrecked a huge portion of the wall behind them. Four Arms then grabbed a huge stone from the wall and slammed it against Ah Puch, who smashed through it as Diamondhead grew her arms out into blades and threw herself into the fight.
Allison noticed the battle as she glared. "I'm going to go help them!"
She then leaped off of the shrine and ran in to help the others fight Ah Puch.
Max fired his grappling hook on the top of the shrine, but Enoch was ready for him. He attacked with his sword, only for Max to fight back and knock him back down to the below section of the shrine.
Enoch glared, reached for his belt and tossed a bola upwards, which wrapped around Gwen, knocking her down as one of the knights approaching.
"Grandpa!" she shouted.
Max was almost at the sword when he looked to his helpless granddaughter. He looked to the sword, then back to Gwen and sighed. He then turned away and activated the rocket boosters on his boots, tackling the knight, causing his sword to be embedded in the ground next to Gwen, barely missing her. He then thrust his feet outwards, sending the knight flying away.
Gwen looked up as her grandfather smiled and unsheathed a blade from his cuff, which he used to slice through Gwen's bindings, freeing her.
The knight ran up again, but Max smirked as he tossed a few marble-like spheres at him, which detonated, sending him flying again as he turned to Gwen.
"I have got to get a suit like that," she smiled as they ran off towards the sword.
Ah Puch shot his tongue outwards, which wrapped around Diamondhead's arm and he tossed her away right into Allison, sending them both sprawling across the ground.
Max and Gwen reached the top of the shrine, when a shield came flying at them like a boomerang, causing them to duck.
It was revealed that Enoch had tossed the shield as he reached the top of the chamber as Ah Puch slammed Four Arms, Diamondhead and Allison into the chambers and laid the smack down on them as well as Allison groaned outwards.
Enoch then slammed against Max and Gwen, knocking them both outwards as he went for the sword.
"No!' Diamondhead shouted as she helped Allison and Four Arms upwards as she formed her arms into blades and sliced against Ah Puch as Allison absorbed the stone from the ground as she, Four Arms and Diamondhead all slammed against the god mercilessly, sending him sprawling against the shrine, causing Max and Gwen to fall off and land safely right on top of him.
They then looked and saw the situation ahead as the Omnitrixes started timing down as they shrugged.
"We, uh, meant to do that," Four Arms said as the Omnitrixes timed out, leaving the twins in their Omni Suits.
"Not good," Jen said as Max ran up the shrine again to stop Enoch.
Suddenly, Ah Puch recovered as the twins shouted out in fear.
"Grandpa/Max!" they all shouted as they ran off, Jen firing energy bolts all the while as they ran off in fear.
Max then shrugged and tackled Ah Puch, getting him into a headlock.
"How about you four ground old beak face!" he suggested as Ben, Gwen and Allison got behind his legs and pushed as Jen ran further behind and fired a pink energy wave from her hands, sending him sprawling downwards into the ground.
"The sword!" Allison realized as they looked to see Enoch pull the sword out of the shrine.
"Enoch!" Max realized.
"At last! The ultimate weapon!" Enoch shouted, raising the sword into the air. "The world shall kneel before me!"
...This moment was short lived however as a few seconds later, the sword crumbled into dust before their very eyes.
"Whoa..." Ben said. "What just happened?"
Max then chuckled and started laughing hysterically at the sight before him. "Guess that's what happens when your 'ultimate weapon' is 5,000 years old!"
Enoch pathetically tried to bunch the dust together as the entire temple started to rumble and shift around them, rocks falling all around them.
"Think that sword was booby trapped?" Allison asked as they ran off back towards the entrance as they saw Enoch.
"Enoch, you have to get out of here!" Max shouted.
"Grandpa, we've got to go! He'll find his own way out, he always does!" Jen shouted as Max nodded and they immediately ran out of the temple, leaving Enoch behind.
Once they were outside, they witnessed the entire temple cave in as they sighed.
"Well, that was quite an adventure," Ben smiled as he and his sister took off their battle helmets and held them underneath their arms.
"I don't know about you but I could sure go for some dung beetle soup," Max said. "It's even better reheated you know."
"Not a chance, old man," Allison stated as they all had a good laugh at that.
"Glad to have you back, Grandpa," Jen smiled.
"Thanks, guys. And I'm sorry for how I treated you today," Max said. "You know, I think it's time to put away the old Plumber suit."
"Because you finally found the Sword of Ek Chuaj?" Gwen asked.
"That and it's giving me a really uncomfortable rash," Max said, scratching at the suit.
"So how are we going to get back?" Ben asked.
"Sorry, but there's no way I'm flying Insectoid Airlines again," Gwen said.
Jen then shrugged and looked towards the helicopter that the Forever Knights had left behind. "Grandpa, you wouldn't know how to fly a helicopter would you?"
Max smiled and soon after, they departed in the helicopter.
However, from down below, the white figure from saw them depart with a nod as a portal opened behind him and out stepped a familiar warrior.
"Kratos," she said with a smile as he turned towards her, got down on his knee and presented a familiar sword to her. "A job well done as always."
"The Sword of Ek Chuaj, as you requested, my Queen," he said as she took the sword.
"I knew that the decoy sword that I had Bismuth make would come in handy someday," she said with a smile as she examined the sword before placing it in a sheath.
"What are you going to do with it now?" Kratos asked.
"Nothing," Scarlett said. "This is going straight to Warehouse 10 where it belongs. It's far too dangerous to be used by me or anybody for that matter."
"Are you going to tell Max Tennyson about this?"
"I don't see the need," Scarlett said with a sigh. "It's not like he's going to see it again and he believes that it's gone for good. I believe it's best that he thinks that it's lost."
"Understood," Kratos said as she gestured to the portal.
"Let's go," she smiled as they walked towards the portal. "I've got a slew of new recruits for the royal guard and it's your turn to train them for duty."
Kratos nodded as they walked through the portal back towards the kingdom of Cinnibar. Once they entered, the portal closed behind them.
Next time on Ben and Jen 10:
Tough Luck
