Chapter 4: A Suspected Twist
It was several hours since the incident with the two Men in Black agents as the Tennysons began to awake in their prison cells. Suddenly Zed along with Agents K and J approached the cell.
"So this boy must be the one with the Omnitrix, am I correct?" asked Zed.
"Why on Earth are you so interested in them?" replied Grandpa Max.
"Silence Plumber" replied Zed, "we're not interrogating you, yet."
"Well, I just found the Omnitrix and it just leaped on my wrist and I couldn't get it off" said Ben.
"Hmm, interesting" said Zed, "it seems that the Omnitrix was looking for you."
"You're not going to do any experiments in removing it are you?" asked Ben.
"Of course not son" replied Zed, "but I'm afraid we're going to have to keep you three right here. You three know too much about aliens in general and for that is a major no, no with us."
"But you shouldn't trust Vilgax's brother" said Gwen, "he's just like Vilgax."
"Oh come on kid" said Zed, "this facility is quite secure. I don't think Ajax would want to make any stupid mistakes."
"You want us to keep an eye on them?" asked Agent K.
"Absolutely" replied Zed, "make sure they don't escape unless if I call for it. And oh, if your grandson over here tries to change into any of his aliens, we have every weapon that can subdue him. Just a reminder before I leave."
"Well" sighed Grandpa Max as Zed finally left the scene, "looks like we're stuck here for now."
As Zed was leaving for his office, Ajax was looking around the facility and found his way to another prison block where major alien criminals were being held. The two Men in Black agents whom were guarding the entrance allowed him to enter since they of course trusted him after he helped take down the Tennysons. Once inside the corridor of the prison block, he noticed three bounty hunters. All three were once bounty hunters that were ordered to look for the Omnitrix and to hunt anyone whom was using it down.
"Who the heck are you?" asked the robotic bounty hunter to Ajax.
"I am Ajax, brother of Vilgax" replied Ajax as he bowed his head toward the three bounty hunters.
"Well get us out" said a blue humanoid hunter, "we were ordered to find the Omnitrix by a general of Vilgax."
"Well you're in luck" replied Ajax, "the Omnitrix is right here in this facility and I get you three your bounty reward by freeing you."
"Sounds fair" said a stoned four-armed hunter, "we'll take your deal."
As the bounty hunters waited, Ajax went toward the computer console and an Men in Black agent whom was there turned around but was knocked out by Ajax. Ajax then took the agent's security card and slipped it through the console releasing the three bounty hunters.
"Let's tear this place apart and find that Omnitrix" said the robotic bounty hunter.
The robotic bounty hunter then loaded up his rocket launcher and fired at the entrance of the corridor, knocking down the door and of course knocking the two Men in Black agents unconscious. The three bounty hunters along with Ajax then began to make their way toward the corridor where the Tennysons were located. As they were trying to make their trek, several Men in Black agents appeared and drew their weapons at them and began to fire. But the bounty hunters used various weapons of their own such as rocket launchers to blasters against the Men in Black agents knocking them unconscious.
"This doesn't look so good" said Grandpa Max as he noticed the alarm was going off in the facility.
"Looks like trouble for sure" added Agent J as he readied his weapon.
Suddenly the door where the Tennysons were located was blown down by the three escaped bounty hunters along wit Ajax aiding them.
"See" said Gwen to Agent K, "I hate to say I told you so."
"Alright kid" said Agent K as he released the Tennysons and turned to Ben, "looks like Zed will be pretty mad if he finds out these guys took the Omnitrix from you and from us as well. So I'm going to let you help kick these guys' butts."
"Sounds fair to me" said Ben as he was getting his Omnitrix to Cannon Bolt.
As Ben changed himself into Cannon Bolt, he raced as a bowling ball right toward the three bounty hunters knocking each one of them pretty hard and sending them crashing right into the wall. Ajax then made his attack against Ben by giving him a good kick and another punch sending Ben against a metal coat that was in the prison cell destroying it. Ben then recovered from the attack and then began to sped right toward Ajax giving him a good hit as a bowling ball and of course knocking Ajax down to the ground. The three bounty hunters then recovered from their attack and then charged at Ben firing their weapons at him. Ben then rolled right toward them and of course made direct hits against all three bounty hunters and sent them crashing against Ajax whom was recovering from the first attack to only be knocked out.
"Don't worry" said Zed as he arrived on the scene with reinforcements aimed with weapons, "we'll handle things from here."
After that episode, Ajax found himself in special modified chains along with the three bounty hunters. He was then placed in a heavily modified cell and of course the same with the three bounty hunters. Zed of course had asked the Tennysons to meet with him privately along with Agents J and K.
"I think it's time we let the Omnitrix go and take the right path" said Zed, "after all you did help us defeat Ajax and those three bounty hunters."
"Thanks" said Ben as he and the rest of the Tennysons were prepared to leave.
"You people are not going to wipe our memories are you?" asked Grandpa Max, "You know to other people whom know too much?"
"I think in this case our secret is safe" replied Agent K as he placed that device back in his pockets, "we won't need it here."
"What a relief" sighed Grandpa Max.
"We can take you three back to your hotel" said Zed, "from there on you must not reveal that we exist or you know that one of our agents can be just around the corner."
"Uh, that's a tip we'll keep in mind" said Gwen as the Tennysons were being led out.
As the Tennysons were being led back to their hotel by Agents J and K, Ajax was sitting in his prison cell.
"I don't believe that my brother could have been defeated by these people" said Ajax to himself, "soon I'll have my revenge when I find my way out of here."
