It was a dark rainy night in Santa Mira town close to Bellwood. A figure in a beige trench coat and a fedora was standing close by to a local coffee shop. He adjusted his hat and walked inside and sat down at a table.
A middle-aged female waitress walked to his table with a clipboard.
"What, did you hear about the special, sir?"
"Just a coffee, ma'am."
"We don't get too many strangers around these parts, honey. What brings you to Santa Mira?"
"Great fishing, great weather."
The waitress looked on and raised her eyebrow skeptically. "Our fish are all farm-raised. And this is the rainy season."
The man took his fedora off to reveal a now 65-year old Max Tennyson.
"I was misinformed."
The waitress walked over and placed a plate covered with a cloche on Max's table. "Here's your special."
"I didn't order that."
"It's on the house."
She lifted the cloche to reveal a parasite-like creature with the brain and tentacles of the DNAliens leap out at Max, who quickly swatted it away. The waitress grabbed Max and struggled as she smirked and he headbutted her.
"You're one strong lady. Or are you?" Max asked as he pulled her face off, revealing an ID mask and that the waitress was a DNAlien!
Max pressed his legs up on the table and kicked back, sending them both crashing into another table.
The parasite crawled towards Max and growled out before the retired Plumber grabbed the coffee pot and slammed it down on the parasite, killing it.
"I said just coffee."
Meanwhile at the Bellwood car wash, Kevin was washing his car and Allison was tuning up her bike, which was looking better than it ever had in the 2 years she's owned it. The twins stood by with a begging look.
"Um, no," Kevin said. "Wait, let me put that a different way. Heck no!"
"Come on, Kevin!" Ben said. "He's our cousin!"
"He was supposed to be home from college two days ago," Jen said. "We're worried."
"And you want me to waste my time driving my car to go looking for your cousin?"
"Yeah, pretty much."
"I'd be happy to help, but my bike only holds two, max," Allison said.
"I know how it sounds, Kevin," Jen said. "The police said to wait, I'm sure that he's fine. We just don't know where he is."
"Daytona Beach or Ft. Lauderdale," Kevin told his friends. "He's a college student."
"No," Ben said. "He called us from the road and said that his car broke down in some backwoods town called Santa Mira. We haven't heard anything since. His folks are worried. Emma's more worried than any of us."
"I can't stand to see my little sister cry," Jen said, feeling her heart breaking just by thinking about it.
"Come on, bro," Allison said. "These guys have done so much for you guys already. Just do this one thing for them."
"And I'm supposed to care about this why?"
"Because he's our brother."
Kevin looked to see Gwen and Becky standing there with concerned looks on their faces.
"Get in."
Everybody filed into the car as Allison fired up her motorcycle and the pair of vehicles drove off to Santa Mira.
"You're really sweet to do this, Kevin," Gwen said from the front seat.
"Our parents already lost me ten years ago. They can't afford to lose another child," Becky said. "I mean, Ken is-"
"Wait?" Kevin laughed as the kids raised their eyebrows. "Ken? Your brother's name is Ken? Gwen and Ken Tennyson? What's your dad's name? Sven? Glen? I'm taking to you Ben and Jen."
"Hey, my name's not like that," Becky sighed.
"Yeah. Our names rhyme," Jen said. "And it took you until just now to notice. Good for you."
"Not to mention that the four of us all share the same birthday," Ben remarked with a sigh.
"He's just playing around, guys," Allison said as she drove alongside with the window down. "He doesn't mean to be offensive this time."
"Ken took Ben to his first soccer game," Gwen said. "And he took Jen to her first concert to go see Tim McGraw when we were seven. She's been in love with country music ever since."
"When his band played at their concert three years ago, he snuck me, his sisters and our friends backstage," Jen smiled. "He's the coolest cousin in the world. No offense, Gwen and Becky."
"None taken," Becky smiled.
They drove forwards as it started to rain, much to Allison's annoyance as they drove past the sign.
"Welcome to Santa Mira," Ben said.
They drove past the coffee shop from earlier as Gwen sighed.
"For a guy who you guys claim is so cool, he sure didn't pick a good spot for spring break."
"Ken is cool, guys," Gwen said. "He didn't pick where the Awesomobile broke down."
"Wait, what?" Allison asked. "The Awesomobile?"
"His car," Jen said. "I know, nice name. We told you, he's awesome."
"Oh yeah, who could doubt it," Allison chuckled.
"I say we check out the local garages in town," Ben said. "We find the Awesomobile, we find Ken."
"Good idea," Kevin said. "I mean, how many garages can this hole of a town support?"
"Five," Allison sighed as they stood in the pouring rain at the last garage in Santa Mira. "Five garages."
"So far," Jen sighed. "And if the Awesomobile isn't in this one then we'll have to keep-"
"Hold onto your watch, sis," Ben said. "Bingo!"
"You found a bingo game?" Kevin asked.
"I found his car," Ben said as they looked through the garage window to see an old rusy rundown car inside the garage.
"That's the Awesomobile?" Allison laughed. "That thing makes the Rust Bucket look like a Ferrari!"
"She's got a point," Becky admitted.
"They've already locked up shop for the night," Gwen remarked as Kevin kicked the door in.
"Kevin!" Becky scolded.
"Relax, your brother's a cool guy. He'll pay for it."
Jen rolled her eyes as they walked into the garage to investigate the Awesomobile as Kevin removed the tarp from the seats to reveal...
"Ah, dirty laundry for Mom to wash, this guy sure is a class act."
"Leave our mother out of this," Gwen scolded. "There has to be something in here to have a clue for to find him."
"What, Gwen?" Allison asked. "You think he left us a note?"
"Hold on," Kevin said as he lifted the hood up and saw a small purple device attached to the engine. "What do we have here?"
"What is it?" Ben asked.
"The only thing in here that's not covered in rust. I recognize it from my dealing days. It's alien tech that provides a field that dampens internal combustion."
"Wait," Becky said. "Our brother's car was sabotaged? Who would do something like that? Ken is-"
"Too cool?" Allison asked.
"Too normal," Jen said, shaking her head. "He doesn't know anything about the aliens or us being the Omni-Team. Why would they want him?"
"I wonder when they did this," Kevin asked, touching the engine. "It's wired directly into the-"
"Ew!" Gwen said, touching a bit of slime on the car. "What is it?"
That was when the Omnitrixes started to glow pink and green and beeped out.
"I don't know. But the Omnitrixes don't like it at all," Ben said as the Omnitrixes started to beep faster and faster.
"What's going on here?"
"Wouldn't mind knowing that myself," a hillbilly said as they stood by the door. "What are you six doing in my garage?"
"You think I should call the sheriff?" his partner said.
"Yeah. You do that... Shem," Allison said, reading his name tag. "I bet that he'd be real interested to find out what happened to the kid who owns this car."
"What do you mean, young lady? How should we know? He dropped off the car, we fixed it, he didn't come back."
That was when they heard the sound of the car's engine turning over and sputtering out as Kevin glared from the door.
"You fixed it, huh?"
"We was aiming to fix it," Shem said. "But things got busy here."
The two rednecks didn't notice as Jen motioned her head to Gwen and Becky as they investigated the cooler that they set on the floor.
"Yeah, real busy work schedule you have here," Jen said, her voice dripping with sarcasm.
Becky removed the lid from the container to reveal more of the green slime and they recoiled in disgust.
"More slime," Gwen said as Ben glared.
"Okay, enough is enough. What is that stuff."
Lightning flashed in the sky and the holograms shimmered briefly to reveal the rednecks to be two DNAliens.
"Check it out, guys. It's the DNA hillbillies," Kevin smirked as the team all pressed their watches and activated their suits.
The hillbillies hocked up a massive amount of slime and blasted it towards Lucky Girl and Kevin, sticking them to the walls as the Omni-Twins backflipped backward and and sliced through the slime blasts with their energy blades before ducking backward.
The rednecks removed their masks, their ruse pointless as Huntress fired arrow after arrow at them as the twins slammed the cores down, transforming into...
"Humungousaur!"
"Firefox!"
Lucky Girl shouted out and blasted out her pink energy from her eyes, ripping through the slime as Matter Girl coated herself in the metal from the Awesomemobile and sliced the slime away, freeing Kevin.
Humungousaur, squeezed in the garage, roared out as the DNAliens turned to run away as Firefox wrapped her tail around her leg and ran forwards, giving out two fireballs that blasted into the DNAliens as she gave out a yip with a glare.
The DNAliens ran, right into Kevin, who was coated in metal with a smile.
"That was a work related accident. You can sue us if you want."
"We've got what we need," Matter Girl smiled. "What do we do now?"
"We find our brother," Huntress said.
The Omni-Team stood in front of the coffee shop that Max was at earlier as Gwen sighed, her cat mask in her hand as she sat on the hood of Kevin's car.
"I thought if we retraced Ken's footsteps, we could find something. But there's nothing here."
The twins then heard a clanking and looked to see a red truck in the corner by the restaurant.
"I wouldn't say nothing, cuz," Jen said as she and her brother quickly regenerated their helmets and ran over, lifting the door up as they saw a DNAlien tied up in the back with energy cuffs with more of the slime from before that Allison knocked over as she took something from the alien's mouth, revealing it to be a piece of a familiar looking Hawaiian shirt.
"Okay, start talking bub," she said.
That was when the Omnitrixes started beeping again and Jen looked to see them beeping faster as Ben groaned.
"What is up with you two?"
"Hold on," Jen said as she waved her Omnitrix arm over the slime and a female A.I. voice rang out.
"Unknown DNA sample acquired."
"Okay, I'll admit. That's a new one," Jen said.
"Um, guys," Becky said holding up the stray piece of cloth. "You two might wanna look at this."
"Oh no," Ben said, taking the cloth. "This is from his favorite shirt."
"Who's favorite shirt?" Kevin asked as his sister nudged him.
"Who do you think, bro? It's Max."
Gwen then shouted out and held the DNAlien in her telekinetic grasp, slamming him against the truck's wall as her sister pointed her spear head at its throat, just barely touching it, glaring out with venom clear in her eyes.
"Who tied you up? Tell us now!"
"Argh. Max Tennyson! He wanted to find some kid."
"Where is he?!" Jen shouted as she aimed her suit's lasers at him while lighting her hands up with pink energy and her eyes glowed pink with rage.
"I don't know! I swear! He cuffed me and left me in the back of the truck."
"We're not talking about our grandfather!" Gwen shouted as she slammed the DNAlien back against the wall multiple times with her telekinetic grip, her anger starting to get the better of her. "He can take care of himself. We're talking about the kid!"
"Where is our brother?!" Becky shouted, trailing her spear down his chest, just waiting for her chance to thrust out and impale him.
"The hatchery!"
"Thanks," Jen said as she crawled in and gave him an energy punch to the head, casing him to fall unconscious from the pain. "That's all we needed to know."
"Let's get out of here," Allison said as she twirled her keys in her hand before walking off to her bike.
Meanwhile at the hatchery, a young man was in tied to a chair in a room with a DNAlien in front of him. Ken was an 18-year-old young adult with green eyes and red hair, resembling his little sister. He had a blue jacket with a white shirt underneath, brown pants and white shoes with black accents.
"Look, I told you! I told you! I have no idea where my grandfather is! I don't know anything!" Ken shouted.
"I believe you," the DNAlien said.
"Who... what are you?"
"I'm glad you asked, Ken," the DNAlien said, removing the lid from a container. "I think the best way to really get to know someone is to walk a mile in their shoes."
He took one of the alien parasites out from the container of slime.
"What is that?"
"My shoes."
Ken screamed in terror as the DNAlien brought the parasite closer to him.
Kevin and Matter Girl drove up to the hatchery, the rain still pouring down hard as they glared outwards and got out before the team ran through the hole in the chain-link fence into the Hatchery, looking at the building ahead and the large septic tanks filled with filthy green water.
"I'm cold and wet," Matter Girl groaned, brushing her arms from the pouring rain.
"No duh," Omni-Pink said, pointing upwards. "Look."
They looked up and groaned.
"A weather machine. Like the one in Grover's Mill," Omni-Green said. "That's why it hasn't stopped raining here. The DNAliens are making it cold and rainy for... whatever it is they're planning."
"How are we going to get in there without getting spotted?" Huntress asked as Omni-Pink groaned as the team looked into the septic tank.
"You have got to be kidding me," Kevin groaned.
"I don't see any of you coming up with any better ideas," Lucky Girl said.
"Yeah, but who would be crazy enough to swim in that?"
Little did they know, arriving in the plant Max was swimming up in the filthy water, taking a deep breath before a DNAlien spotted him.
It ran forwards to try to sound the alarm, but the ex-Plumber ran up and punched him off the balcony before taking out his Null Void Projector and sucked it up, sending it to the Null Void like a ghost into the Fenton Thermos.
Max ducked through the halls, avoiding contact with the DNAliens as they walked through, looking for him. He hid behind a corner and noticed the beeping of the security system on the wall. He glared and whistled out, sending the aliens running for him before he knocked them out and sent them to the Null Void as well.
He ran forwards into the interrogation room and waved his Plumber's badge over the scanner, granting him permission for entry as he ran in and saw Ken slouched over on the ground, already partially taken over by the parasite.
"Grandpa Max...help... me!" Ken turned around and Max recoiled at the sight of his grandson partially coated with the parasite's head and his body was starting to change into a DNAlien.
"Kenny, it's okay, boy. I'm here," Max said, helping Ken up before he was suddenly shocked with a taser that Ken held as he smirked mischievously.
Max groaned in horror before he immediately blacked out.
The Omni-Team swam through the septic tanks leading into the hatchery as Kevin groaned with disgust.
"Hey, guys. Next time you guys ask me for a favor, remind me to say no."
"Hey, it's no picnic for us either, little bro," Matter Girl groaned.
"Yeah, don't be such a baby," Lucky Girl said. "Our brother is in there being tortured by DNAliens."
The team then held their breath (except for the two leaders, who had helmets on) and ducked under the grate to swim under it before gasping up.
"At least he's dry. And this stuff smells like-"
That was when Huntress felt something touch her bare leg and she gasped.
"What was that?"
Lucky Girl and Matter Girl gasped as they felt tentacles surround them and they were immediately pulled under.
"Gwen, Ally, no!" Ben shouted shouted.
"Hold on. Don't rush into this, bro," Omni-Pink said to her brother in a mutter so Kevin couldn't hear. "The last thing that we need right now is a repeat of what happened to Feedback."
"You promised that you'd never mention Feedback to me again," Omni-Green scolded.
"I felt worse for you than you did about yourself. Sometimes we need to remember our failures to help us succeed in the future."
"I guess you're right," Ben said. "But Feedback just stays between us, Gwen, Becky, Allison, Grandpa Max and Azmuth. No one else has to know."
"Gotcha."
Max was led through the facility by two DNAliens and he groaned outwards as he looked up to see the Highbreed in charge of the operation.
"Max Tennyson," the Highbreed said. "You have been active in your retirement."
"Aw, this is really just a hobby now. A man my age has to stay active," Max smirked.
"You have been a great irritation to us, vermin. You have delayed our plans for the last time."
"I'm nothing compared to my grandchildren and their friends. It's obvious that you're planning something with these parasites here."
"Xenocytes," the Highbreed explained.
"And that they somehow mutate humans into these freaks."
"It can't be helped. Their human half makes them... repulsive."
"What I want to know is, why?"
"You will soon see for yourself, insect," the Highbreed said as the two DNAliens detained the ex-Plumber and he held up a Xenocyte to him that slithered and squirmed in his grasp. "We are only mere hours away from creating the most crucial stage of our plan."
"But why my grandson? Why change Ken?"
"He was merely brought here as bait for you. With you out of the way, there will be no one who can stop us."
The others all surfaced from the tank to catch a breath, looking around for Lucky Girl and Matter Girl hurriedly.
"Where are they?!" Omni-Green shouted.
"I can't see anything down there!" Kevin shouted.
"Keep trying!" Huntress shouted as they ducked under again and resurfaced... before they saw the water start to glow pink and a huge blast of energy flew outwards with a bunch of Xenocytes flying outwards with the blast as the two heroines resurfaced, disgust evident on their faces.
"This is so wrong," Matter Girl groaned. "Come on."
"Yeah, well it's about to get worse," Omni-Pink said as they looked inside the grate. "I'm afraid I only see one way in from here."
"Oh, you're not saying-" Kevin said as Huntress nodded.
"I'm afraid so."
The rest of the group all sucked in a deep breath and then dove downwards into the tank.
"Proving my point of this being the worst road trip ever."
Kevin dove downwards as well and they swam into the hatchery plant.
As the team swam down in the filthy water, they didn't take notice of the tons of eggs at the bed of the tanks and a few hatched out, forming Xenocytes that swam towards our heroes.
They reached the other end of the tank inside the hatchery with a massive breath of air as Huntress raised her arm to see a Xenocyte sticking to her arm like a leech.
She screamed in disgust and terror as she tossed the Xenocyte away... into the feet of a DNAlien.
Our heroes then got back to back as they saw tons and tons of DNAliens surround them on all sides as Matter Girl groaned outwards as Lucky Girl channeled her energy.
"We are not good at stealth," Matter Girl siad.
"But we kick major butt," her brother said as the Omni-Twins readied their Omnitrixes, slammed the cores down and transformed into...
"Big Chill!"
"AeroForce!"
The two then flew up back to back out of the tank and towards opposite ends of the plant as the DNAliens spat out globs of green slime at them and missed each time.
Big Chill went intangible and phased through several of the DNAliens, freezing them on the spot.
"I thought you guys liked it cold."
AeroForce flew around with a caw and flapped her wings massively before sending out a massive cyclone of air outwards, sending a large number of the DNAliens backwards as Kevin and his sister came out of the tank and absorbed the floor, slamming into them with their intense strength before Matter Girl morphed her arms into hammers and slammed them, sending them flying backwards into the tank with a shout of fury.
Lucky Girl ran forwards and sent out several energy disks that blasted the DNAliens back and she ran on her energy platforms with a shout before her Fire charm glowed and she blasted out several fireballs from her hands towards them, causing them to fly backwards as she shouted out in fury.
Huntress, meanwhile, shot out several of her arrows towards the DNAliens, knocking them out on impact before she dodged downwards, collected her arrows and brought out her spear, knocking the aliens back several times with grunts of effort before she turned around and gave a roundhouse kick to one who ran beside her, bt one quick look and she realized too late that it was...
"Ken?" she asked in shock.
Kevin ran forwards and prepared to punch him before Lucky Girl brought up an energy wall to stop him.
"Wait!"
"What's wrong with you girls! I was just following your lead."
The twins then flew forwards before they dodged two arrows blasted at them.
"Don't touch him!" Huntress shouted. "It's Ken! It's our brother!"
Ken looked up to them in shock as the twins transformed back and landed on the ground.
"I can't believe it," Omni-Green gasped. "It really is Ken."
Ken stood up as Lucky Girl landed in front of him and brushed his face.
"I know you don't want to hurt us. It's your sisters, Gwen and Becky," she said to him.
"That's Ken?" Matter asked. "He actually looks less cool than his car."
"Guys, we have to help him," Huntress stated.
"He was fighting us, Becky," Omni-Pink said, taking her cousin's shoulders. "Whatever they did to him affected his mind."
"What this did to me... is set me free!"
Ken grabbed a DNAlien and tossed it away and they dodged outwards and Omni-Pink blasted outwards with her energy tendrils from her hands, creating energy tendrils around him detaining him.
"Don't hurt him! He's just sick," Lucky Girl said. "It's that parasite or whatever on him. It's making him do this."
"Then let's get it off him," Kevin said as he started to pull the Xenocyte from Ken's head as the twins went to stop him.
"Kevin, wait! You're hurting him!" Omni-Green said before the Omnitrixes started to beep out again to the Xenocyte on Ken's head. "Huh?"
"Severe genetic damage detected," Omni-Green's Omnitrix A.I. said in his voice.
"Huh?" Omni-Pink asked. "I wonder..."
"Genetic code splicing error," her Omnitrix's A.I. said in her voice. "Should the pair of us attempt to repair?"
"You mean try to fix Ken?" Omni-Green asked as his sister nodded.
"Yeah. Let's do it!"
The two then approached Ken as the Omnitrixes started beeping outwards and grabbed his head, causing the Xenocyte on his head to squirm out and wrapped it's tentacles around their helmet-covered heads.
"What are you guys doing?" Huntress asked.
"We'll let you know when we figure it out," Omni-Green said.
The Omnitrixes flashed out a green and pink light and the twins (without their suits) were flying through a green and pink striped tunnel with awe.
"Whoa," Ben said. "Are we inside the Omnitrixes?"
"I think so, bro," Jen said. "But if that's the case, so is that whatever it is that was on Ken."
The two then looked up to see a large outline of the infected Ken on them and they both cracked their knuckles.
"Here goes nothing."
Their bodies glowed with a green and pink aura as they shot their arms out and grabbed at the Xenocyte that quickly wrapped its tentacles around them, causing them to scream out in terror as the tentacles started to overtake them.
Soon, their eyes shot open and Ben held the Xenocyte in his hands as he placed it on the ground.
Jen then gave a shushing gesture as she focused and generated her pink energy blade from her suit's arm and then stabbed it through the alien parasite, killing it instantly before she wiped the gunk off of her blade.
"Man, the two of us are going to have to ask Azmuth for a manual for these things," Jen said, looking at her Omnitrix.
Ken, still in the energy binds, gasped as the DNAlien coating fell off of him and his sisters ran up and hugged him tightly.
"I got you, big brother," Becky said as he groaned outwards and the twins degenerated their helmets in front of him.
"It's okay, Ken," Ben said. "Everything's going to be just fine."
"Nothing's fine, Ben," Ken groaned. "I captured Grandpa. I handed him over to them, I- I couldn't stop myself. It- it was like I was watching someone else use my body."
"Wait," Jen said, standing up. "They have Grandpa Max?!"
"That's why they took me, Jen. They knew he'd come for me. They needed him out of the way. Their plan, it's... terrible."
The twins then generated their helmets back up and looked towards the stairwell.
"Let's go get him," Omni-Green said.
"Agreed," Matter Girl said, banging her hand into her fist.
"I'm coming with you guys," Ken asked.
"Be our guest," Gwen smiled, tying her mask back on.
"You wanna help?" Kevin asked. "Cool."
After fighting their way through the massive amounts of DNAliens in the hatchery, the team finally made their way towards the main room and Matter Girl sliced the door open with her blade arms before dissolving her armor and they looked to see Max tied up.
"Ben? Jen?"
"Grandpa Max!" Gwen shouted as his four grandkids all ran up and hugged him immensely as Jen sliced the binds with her energy blades.
"You're sights for sore eyes."
"We missed you!" Jen smiled as Ken, Kevin and Matter Girl smiled from the doorway, the latter's hands on her hips in pride.
"We're so glad you're okay!" Becky said.
"Me too, honey."
Ken then walked up with a sigh.
"Kenny."
"Grandpa, I'm sorry. I didn't know what I was doing and I-"
Max just walked up and hugged his oldest grandson with a smile.
"I always knew you two could do it, Ben and Jen. I'm so proud of you. All of you."
"Thanks, Grandpa," Ben smiled.
"You too, Kevin," Max said as Kevin shrugged and his older sister nudged him, which he smiled. "I've been watching, young man. You've come a long way. Might even earn that Plumber's badge you swiped from Labrid."
"Uh..."
"Attention all personnel!" the Highbreed's voice shouted over the intercom. "Initiate Project DNA now!"
"Oh, that's not good," Gwen said as they all tied their masks back on and ran forwards
The DNAliens flew down on some hovering machines and drained the liquid from the septic tanks, which showed the Xenocyte eggs resting at the bottom. They sucked the eggs up in the bottom of the machines before flying away.
"What do you think they're doing?" Jen asked as they all looked through the glass window.
"They're shipping those things somewhere," Max explained. "Putting together a DNAlien army."
They watched as the DNAliens loaded the eggs into the trucks resting outside of the hatchery.
"Guys, you need to stop them now. These Xenocytes have to be destroyed."
"Right!" Ben said as he and the others ran out before he turned back to his grandfather. "What about you? What are you gonna do?"
"What I have to."
The twins nodded to him... just as Ben felt an annoying feeling tug at the base of his brain as a memory of a vision he had flashed through his brain from five years ago.
"Ugh. What is this?"
Outside as the DNAliens were loading the trucks up, a few arrows pierced into the tanks as tons of pink energy disks flew outwards, blasting them away in fiery explosions and sending the trucks flying.
The DNAliens looked upwards to see the Omni-Team and Ken up front and Kevin smirked to the two sisters.
"Nice one."
The DNAliens growled outwards and spat out their slime balls to the team who avoided them as Ben and Jen slammed the Omnitrixes down transforming into...
"Jetray!"
"Titanosaurus!"
Jetray blasted out with his energy blasts from his eyes and tail, destroying several of the trucks as Titanosaurus used her massive strength to slam downwards, destroying every truck and egg in sight as she roared outwards in fury, smashing them away with her tail.
Ken slammed down with a crowbar, destroying the eggs, sending gunk flying everywhere before Kevin took the bar from him and absorbed the metal before handing the bar back to him and he ran forwards, smashing the DNAliens with his strength as his sister used her hammer hands to smash the eggs inside, slamming them downwards like a set of drums with a shout and grabbed a DNAlien and slammed its head down on the tray and ran it along, smashing all of the eggs with its head before she tossed him back into the truck, unconscious.
Lucky Girl and Huntress shouted out as Lucky Girl sent massive amounts of pink lightning raining down on the aliens as she walked forwards and Huntress brought out her machete and spear and slashed and stabbed her way through every DNAlien in her path.
"You kidnapped our brother, turned him into a monster, captured our grandfather. WE HAVE HAD IT!" Lucky Girl shouted out as she sent massive energy blast after massive energy blast outwards, blasting the aliens and trucks just as Huntress fired an arrow into each tank, blasting it into oblivion with a shout of fury.
"No more mercy!" Huntress shouted as she stabbed a DNAlien in the chest with her machete and trailed the blade upwards, pretty much killing it and she slammed outwards with a cry of fury.
Explosions rang out across the land as Jetray and Lucky Girl destroyed all of the trucks just as Titanosaurus finished smashing them up before they transformed back.
"Whoa," Matter Girl said, impressed.
"My sisters and cousins are awesome," Ken said in awe.
They then looked up and saw a flash of white light from the top of the building and they ran into the building as Ben saw the image of Max being held by the Highbreed flash through his mind again and he gulped.
"I have a bad feeling about this."
The team investigated the decimated remains of the area where they found Max.
"Whoa. Your grandfather has been busy," Matter Girl said, impressed.
"This way!" Omni-Pink said as they ran forwards to the open area.
They then looked outwards and gasped as Kevin nudged Omni-Green.
"So, was I right?"
"Yep. Worst road trip ever."
In front of them was a giant disgusting machine that sent out tons of Xenocyte eggs in front of them.
"Grandpa Max!" Lucky Girl shouted as they saw Max clashin a crowbar with the Highbreed as he roared out at the elderly man.
The larger alien grabbed Max's weapon and tossed it away as he roared and slammed down on him, much to the team's horror.
"Let him go!" Ken shouted.
"Stay back. Or this human breathes no more."
"Give it up, Highbreed!" Omni-Pink shouted, generating her blasters from her wrists. "We've beaten you! Your factory's toast, your trucks are smashed. It's over!"
"You fools. More trucks could be here in a matter of hours. And my DNAlien hordes-"
The team looked outwards to see the tons of said hybrids outside the building, waiting for command.
"Are already here," Omni-Green gasped.
"It ends now, Plumber! Nowhere left to run!"
"Oh, who said anything about running, chief? I was looking for the egg machine."
Max reached into his pack and revealed a Null Void Projector.
"A Null Void Warp Projector? You'll never be able to imprison us all!"
"No. But without the focusing lens, this thing will make a pretty good imitation of a hand grenade! I think this could take out half a mile!" Max said, pulling the focusing lens off as he prepared to press the button, lightning arcing out.
"You wouldn't dare! You'll be destroyed too! And your offspring!"
"Try me. Gwen, Jen, throw up an energy shield around you and the others and hold on tight. And... you be good girls."
"Grandpa Max, no!" Omni-Pink shouted as Ben realized the first part of his vision from five years ago was now coming true. "Please!"
"We can't lose you again!" Omni-Green shouted.
"Sorry, guys. It's the only way to make sure that they can't do to the rest of the world what they did to Ken. You guys will have to take it from here. I know you can do it. I believe in you. In all of you."
"Grandpa! NO!" Ben shouted as Kevin and Ken held him back and the two sorceresses nodded before they both crossed their arms and surrounded the team with a massive energy force field.
Max pressed the button and the result was a massive explosion that arced outwards, destroying the building, the septic tanks and several feet outwards, leaving everyone in a crater as Jen and Gwen deactivated the force field before Jen hit the ground, deactivating her suit as her eyes welled up with tears and she hit the ground with a groan and a shake of her head.
"That was... pretty hardcore," Kevin said, in shock.
"You okay?" Ken asked as he held Jen's shoulder and she shook her head, tears filling her eyes and running down her cheeks.
"No, Ken," Jen said with a sigh. "I don't think I am."
"He... he sacrificed himself for us," Becky said as Allison shook her head with a sigh.
"He was the closest thing to a father I've had in years," she said.
"He saved the whole world," Gwen said.
"He did," Ben said, obviously sad. "For now. But there's no way that the DNAliens are going to give up anytime soon. Not without a fight."
"We have to do right by him," Jen said, wiping her eyes.
"What do you mean?" Ken asked.
"We're saying that with Grandpa Max gone, someone has to protect the Earth. And like it or not, I think that it's up to us," Ben said.
"We're in it if you are," Kevin said.
"Bring it on," Jen said as they turned to Ken.
"You in on this too?"
"You bet," Ken said. "Call me whenever you need my help. He was my grandfather too."
On a mountaintop overhead, the Watcher observed the whole situation with a shake of his head.
"Oh, Ben and Jen. You really have no idea what the future holds in store for you two, do you. Especially you, Jen. Your destiny is fast approaching, as are the plans that the Protectors have in store for you."
A few hours later after everyone went back home, a construction team tossed away the tons of debris left behind from the crater before they pulled the hatchery sign away to reveal a Xenocyte that was still alive.
The worker picked it up and tossed it into the pail that had tons of Xenocytes still squirming around inside of it.
Lightning then flashed out, causing the workers' forms to shimmer, revealing them to be DNAliens in disguise.
