Chapter 8: It's a lifes reboot
California, home of the movie creation studios known as HollyWood. But the most beautiful part of it was the Redwood National State Park. The beauty and tranquility of the park is one of the main reasons why people come there to get away from the chaos to be able to have some peace and quiet. Unfortunately that peace and quiet was disrupted by the form of the alien crustacean of Ben's known as Overflow in omni-kix armor who was thrown into three wood trees. "Well this sucks". Overflow/Ben thought to himself as the Beetle brothers and an army of cicadas were coming at him. Things had been going well for Ben so far, but lately He felt like everything was getting dull. After he had defeated Vilgax and saved not only the earth but also the universe things had become sort of bleak. Not that there weren't super villains to stop but nowadays things had just become sort of lame because it was always the same old stuff when fighting against his enemies. He just wished that there was some sort of new challenge to take on.
"Prepare to meet your end Tennyson". Maurice said with cold laughter. Ben/Overflow only got up and said to the Beetle brothers and their army "I think it's time to show you just how fluidly I can fight against anyone that tries to interrupt the peace and quiet"! Ben/Overflow shouted as he fired his water cannon hands at the Beetle brothers and the army of cicadas. The huge wave of water washed over the army of cicadas as well as the Beetle Brothers. As they were being carried away Maurice began shouting at him "This isn't over Ben Tennyson, I will have my revenge"! Overflow/Ben only sighed as transformed back into his human form. But before he could return to the RustBucket he heard a grunt from behind him. Turning around he saw Maurice's ugly big brother Sydney. Apparently he hadn't been washed away like his little brother had been. "Gee you really don't know when to give up do you"? Ben said to him, faking a yawn. Sydney roared in rage and charged at Ben. But before he could clobber him, Ben quickly transformed into Hummungosaur and swung his tail so hard that he sent Sydney flying into the sky.
Sighing in relief that the battle was finally over he made his way back to the Rust Bucket. As soon as he got there, both his grandfather and Gwen had already set up a campfire and were roasting marshmallows. As he made his way to them Gwen looked up at him and asked "So how did the fight go Beetle Brothers"? Ben shrugged. Ah, same old same old stuff, them trying to form an army of Bugs and trying to either rob a bank or take over the world, ever or is bad so I stopped them". "Ben everything alright there kiddo"? Grandpa asked him. "Yeah you kinda been out of it for a while since that fight with Vilgax". Gwen told him. Ben sighed before telling them "It's just that ever since the fight with Vilgax it feels like the villains are becoming more and more lame all of the time because it feels like they never change with their plans, take the Beetle Brothers today. I mean it's always the same old stuff, them forming a massive army of bugs and try to either take over the world or robbing a bank. I mean they never change". "You're not saying you're going to give up being a hero are you"? Gwen asked her cousin "WHAT? No"! Ben said in shock.
"It's just that it feels like I need to take on a new challenge and not deal with the same old stuff". Ben told them. "Cheer up sport, maybe something new will come soon, you just have to be patient and who knows it might come sooner than later". Grandpa told him. Suddenly without warning a loud boom could be heard a few miles away. Ben looked at the direction that the noise came from and his Bentuition kicked in. "Looks like the Beetle Brothers are at it again". Ben said annoyedly before transforming into XLR-8. Before either his cousin or Grandfather could stop him he zoomed off to where the loud boom came from. "We should go after him before he does something stupid". Gwen suggested. "Good Idea". Grandpa Max agreed with her as he and Gwen ran after Ben. When the portal that made the booming sound opened, both Cooper and Lucy came flying out on the other side, and they got the wind knocked out of them. When they finally got their breath back Lucy looked at their surroundings and asked Cooper "Where do you think we are Cooper"? Cooper looked around at their surroundings and said to her "I think by the looks of things we're in the Redwood National State Park in california". Lucy nodded as she looked around until she then realized something. "OMG Cooper! What are we going to do, we don't have a way to get back to the team and how will they be able to find us"!? Cooper sighed at this and tried to find a plausible answer for her. "Calm down Lucy, first things first, we need to figure out where the Omnitrix wielder in this reality and tell him about Ben X then figure out a way to contact the team".
As soon as he said that a screeching sound could be heard from behind them. Turning around they both saw what looked like a weird version of Ben's XLR-8 but smaller with shark like fins on its back. "Ok just who the heck are you guys"? The XLR-8 asked them. Before either Cooper or Lucy could answer him he noticed that they both had what looked like different colored Omnitrix's. At the sight of this Ben's hero instincts went into high gear and quickly transformed into Four arms and picked up a giant rock. "Ben, wait we're not who you think we are, let us explain"… Before Cooper could explain who they were and why they were there, Four Arms/Ben threw the rock at him. Before the giant rock hit him Lucy quickly transformed into Diamondhead and made a diamond wall to shield him from harm. Cooper quickly transformed into Wildvine and got over the diamond wall and stood right by Lucy. Ben was so shocked that he didn't notice Cooper/Wild Vine use his powers to ensnare him. When he did notice it was already too late. Once Four Arms/Ben was tied up both Cooper and Lucy tried to reason with him but Ben didn't listen to any of them because he still thought they were omnitrix ripoffs.
"Ben, please let us explain who we are and why we're here". Cooper said to Ben. When Ben/Four arms finally wriggled himself out he landed a haymaker of a punch on Cooper/Wild Vine sending him flying 12yds across the forest. He then faced off against Lucy/Diamond head and the two started to what best could describe it as a mixture of a street fight and turkey shoot rolled into one. As soon as Grandpa Max and they were shocked at seeing two different versions of Ben's aliens at the same time with different colored versions of the Omnitrix. They then saw the Wild Vine grown in pain as he got up. When Cooper/Wild Vine looked at them he realized that this was this dimensions Gwen and Max Tennyson. Once he transformed back into his human form Walked over to them and asked them "Are you Gwen Tennyson and Max Tennyson"? They both nodded, still not understanding what was going on. "My name is Cooper and me and Lucy, who is the Diamond Head by the way, need you to calm down so that we can explain what's going on and why we are here". They both nodded as they and Cooper ran over to Ben and Lucy to stop the fight. Meanwhile back with a fight Lucy/Diamondhead wasn't doing so well even though her Petrosapien was indestructible and powerful it had nothing on full powered Tetraman.
During the fight Ben/Fourarms had decided to grab Lucy's/Diamondhead foot and start throwing her like a ragdoll when he was done with that he lifted her up by her neck and asked her " One last time who the heck are you people and why are you after the Omnitrix"!? "Ben wait"! A familiar voice called from behind him. Turning around he saw his grandpa, Gwen and another boy around his age that he didn't recognize but he saw that he had the same gold and purple Omnitrix that the Wild Vine did. " Kiddo listen to us, they didn't come here to fight, Whatever they came here for we need to hear them out". Ben paused for a moment before deciding to hear out who these people were and why they had their own versions of the Omnitrix. He let Lucy go but he gave them one glare that meant that if they tried anything he would screw them up so badly, a message that they fully understood.
A few hours later:
"So let me get this straight". Ben said after he and his family had heard what Lucy and Cooper had told him about Ben X. "There is another version of me that's evil and you want to recruit me to join a bunch of other good versions of me to save the entire multiverse"?! "That's pretty much basically it". Cooper said. Ben paused for a moment and then started to burst into laughter where his family, Cooper, and Lucy all looked at him thinking that he had gone mental. "You really think I'm going to believe that there is another version of me that's evil, yeah I don't buy it but the multiverse thing that I can buy at". "Ben, I don't think they're kidding around". Gwen said to him. "Come on you two how to believe this is a bit bogus I mean seriously how can there be an alternate version of me that's evil"? Ben asked them incredulously. Suddenly as if the universe wanted to prove him wrong a portal opened up from behind them but unlike the one that Cooper and Lucy came out of this one was red, dark red.
All of them turned around to see three figures come out the other side of the portal. When the portal closed they saw three hunter bots holding what looked like giant grenade launchers pointing right at them. "Designation: located Ben Tennyson of dimension seven along with Cooper Daniels and Lucy Tennyson, Primary function target and destroy them". One of the hunter bots said as they charged up their weapons. Without waiting a second thought Cooper transformed into accelerate running at high speeds towards the hunter bots and slamming into them on impact. As the hunter bots went back flying, Cooper looked at Ben and Lucy and told them "you two take care of the others I've got this one". They both nodded as they both transformed into Franken strike and Jet ray and prepared to fight. Ben looked at his family and said to them "Quickly get somewhere safe while we handle this". Gwen and grandpa Max nodded and ran behind a boulder. As both Lucy and Ben charged into battle he quickly activated his Omni kicks armor and after activating it shot laser beams at one of the hunter bots which unfortunately had put up a force field which sent the laser beams right back at him. Ben quickly dodged them as he continued The fire of them hoping he could find a weak spot in the force field. Meanwhile back with Lucy and Cooper they weren't faring much better either.
Cooper/XLR-8 had been running around in circles against his hunter bot that he was fighting and trying to throw every punch she could at its head unfortunately the hunter pot was as fast as he was so he wasn't making any headway through it. Lucy/Fraken strike was even having a more difficult time with her Hunter bot as she kept trying to punch and throw electricity at the Hunter bot but unfortunately it was able to absorb the energy and throw it right back at her. As the fight continued Cooper then came up with an idea. "Guys"! He called to them getting their attention. "We need to switch things up, they may be able to counteract A specific type of Omnitrix wielder but they can't counteract a different type of Omnitrix wielder". Both Lucy and Ben looked at him not understanding what he meant, but then seeing where he was going with us both nodded their heads determinedly and ran to the others Hunter bought that they were battling. Cooper switched with Lucy and proceeded to punch her Hunter bot that she had been battling. That's win Cooper finally realized something if he couldn't beat Luces Hunter bot by brute force he could stop it by taking it apart. He then quickly proceeded to undo all the screws and bolts on the hunter bot. After he had done that the hunter bot began to fall apart as soon as it started moving. After it fell apart Cooper saw the energy core stick out of the pile of robot parts and then quickly got an idea. "Lucy". He called. Lucy, who had been fighting Ben's Hunter bot, quickly looked at Cooper. "As soon as I throw this powercore hit it with all the electricity you can muster it should shorten out the hunter bot". Lucy nodded as Cooper pelted at full speed at the robot and through the power core. Lucy quickly shot a burst of energy at the power core and it exploded sending out a massive amount of energy directly at the hunter bot.
As the hunter bots Force field began to flicker the robot began to jerk and short circuit giving Lucy the opportunity she had been looking for. She then charged up her shoulder and entities and shot a bolt of electricity at the killer robot destroying it instantly. Lucy smiled at Cooper thanking him for the help. They both turned to help Ben fight his hunter bot, but when they turned around he had been standing over the remains of his robot. After he had transform back into his human form he walked over to them and said "I wouldn't have believed it before when you said that there was another version of me that's evil and wants to destroy the entire multiverse, but now I believe it and I'm sorry for not believing you before". Lucy Who had transform back into her human form as well as Cooper put her hand on his shoulder and said to him "It's ok Ben we understand you're not believing us at first but now that you know we need your help save all the other good Ben's because if we don't stop Ben X then every other earth will be destroyed". Ben looked at the ground thinking for a bit then looked at his family who had come out from behind the rock they were hiding and then looked at both Cooper and Lucy and said to them in determination "Well if this version of me wants a fight I say we give them a fight I'm in"!
Both Ben's family and Lucy and Cooper smiled at this until Ben asked both Lucy and Cooper an important question "Only got one question, how are we going to get to these other universes"? Suddenly a portal opened from behind them. Turning around they saw a blue portal open up and to the shock all of team Omni 10 came out of it. Everyone was so shocked at seeing the entire team that Lucy was the first to come out of her stupor. She ran up to Ben and gave him a big hug. "Ben, It's so good to see you and the entire team"! Ben 10 only laughed at her enthusiasm. "It's good to see you too Lucy and I'm glad to see that both you and Cooper are all right and I'm glad to see you were able to find the Ben in this reality". He turned to the Ben and said to him "Glad to see that we have another Ben with us in this war you ready"? Ben 10R nodded as the entire team proceeded to go through the portal into the next reality but before he went through the portal he looked back at his family and said to them "Grandpa, Gwen I promise to come back to you once this is over". He then ran over to them and gave them both a big hug. Then he quickly walked back to the portal before it closed. As the portal closed Gwen asked Grandpa Max "Do you think he'll come back to us grandpa"? Grandpa Max looked at his granddaughter and said to her with a sincere smile "I really hope so Gwen I really hope so".
