Welcome to the next chapter. And again, to D-Dawg, Ben is not Knuckles and Sonia and Manic are not Shadow and Rouge. With that said, let's rock and roll.
Later that night
The boy was still flying around the town for a while until he decided to land in a bush near the police station. He peeks out looking around and looks at his remote. "Hmm, he's close. I just need a way to reach him without being spotted." Hel told himself as he looks around. Then he saw an empty police car. "Standard human transport. Perfect." He said as he came up with an idea.
Back at the Loud House
Colorful lights kept flickering inside as Ben was watching from inside an empty house while speaking with his Aunt Sally on the phone. "His powers are incredible Aunt Sally. He can spin in the form of an orange tornado, can run really fast, and his ring has the ability to open portals to anywhere just by channeled thoughts." He described what Michael can do.
"And what is he doing right now Benjamin?" Sally's voice on the phone asked. Ben looked through binoculars and saw Michael still having a pool party in the house. "He's having a pool party in the house." He described what Michael was doing. "Man. Better hope he cleans that up before the Loud's get home." He said as he continues his invention.
Ben adds a few more pieces to it and a bit of coding and then was on the last piece. "And for the final touch." Ben said as he pulls something out of his pocket. It was a special core with green circuits and the dial had a green hourglass symbol.
He inserts the core into the device and it caused a bright green glow causing Ben to shield his eyes. Once the light died down, the gadget was now complete and activated. Ben looks at it and smiles. "Aunt Sally, it's finally done." Ben said on the phone feeling proud of his achievement.
Then he hears her gasp in joy. "Oh Benjamin, good job honey. I wish I was there to see it." Sally said feeling proud of Ben. "Don't worry. Once you get back, you'll see it soon." He said with a smile. Then he looks at the watch, picks it up and attached it to his wrist. He looks at it on his arm and smiles. "Perfect fit. This baby is gonna help a lot of people." H said with a smile.
We zoom up to the watch and the dial glows a green light. "What do you call it?" Sally asked on the phone. "I call it…The Omnitrix."
Back at the Loud House
Michael was still having an indoor pool party while the music was playing This is how we do it by Montell Jorden. Then he hears vibrating in the bubbles and fell in. When he saw his phone ringing, Lincoln was calling.
Michael's eyes widen in horror. "Oh boy." He said nervously. He knew if the Loud's saw the bubble party in the house, he would be in trouble. So Michael turned the lights on, used his speed to clean up the mess in about 3 seconds.
When he was done, he ran into the kitchen and stood by the sink. He clears hi throat. "Okay, acting natural and…" He said to himself as he tapped enter on the phone. When video call came on, all the Loud siblings, Clyde, Ronnie Anne and Sid were on. "ALOHA MICHAEL!" They all called out to him with smiles. Michael laughs at that. "Hiya guys." He greeted them.
In Hawaii
They were all at a table with Lincoln phone standing on an umbrella. "How's it going bud?" Lincoln asked Michael on the phone. "Good. I just finished a bit of chores, played with the pets, did, this, that, you know." Michael said. "Uh huh." Lincoln said. "Why is your shirt wet?" Lucy asked noticing it had a wet spot. Michael took notice and thought of an excuse. "I was washing the dishes and some water back splashed on me." He said.
They all nod buying the lie. "Yeah, and every word you're telling us is literally making us more suspicious." Lori said with a raised eyebrow. "What?" Michael asked. "Come on guys, You're at the Four Seasons Oahu. Have a Mai Tai! Enjoy some time with your friends and family! Get sunburn somewhere embarrassing! This weekend is about you." Michael told them then leers. "The sunburn is directing at you Lynn." He mocked Lynn making everyone laugh.
Lynn got annoyed. "Ugh! Why do you always pick on me?!" She asked. "Because you always pick on me and everyone in the house." Lincoln pointed out. "So how is it down there? You guys having fun?" Michael asked wanting to know if they're having a good time so far. "We sure are. We had a splash in the pool, saw a short luau, and right now we're going over the wedding plans." Sid listed what they did. "And Lily and I got the role of the flower girls!" Lola said really excited. "Fwowers!" Lily said while clapping her hands.
"Congrats Lols." Michael congratulated her. Then Rita and Lynn came up to them. "Hey kids." Lynn Sr greeted them. They noticed Michael on the video chat. "Hi Mr. and Mrs. Loud." Michael called out. "Hi Michael." Rita greeted back. "How is everything back home?" Lynn Sr asked.
Back at the Loud House
"Everything's fine Mr. Chef." Michael assured them as Charles walks by with bubbles on his back.
Back in Hawaii
"So how's Albert and Myrtle doing?" Michael asked as the Loud's saw him and Myrtle enjoying themselves in the restaurant. "They're doing good. Love is truly in the air for them." Luan said. "Our grandfather said he wishes to thank you for congratulating him and our new grandmother unit." Lisa said. "I'm happy for them." Michael said.
The Loud's nod in agreement. "Well we better go and talk out the rest of the plans dude." Luna said. "We'll see in 2 days Mikey." Leni said. "And remember, no hero stuff till your moment!" Lincoln reminded him. "I remember Linc. We power bumped on it." Michael said remembering the power bump. "Your right. We power bumped. Okay. See ya buddy." Lincoln said to Michael.
Michael waved bye. "Bye guys. See you when you get back." He bid them farewell for now and hung up.
Then the kids walked away and went to Albert and Myrtle. Then Rita and Lynn were confronted by Sally. "Rita and Lynn Loud Sr?" She asked getting they're attention. "Yes." Lynn Sr said. "Sally Tennyson. I'm a new veteran." She introduced herself as she shook they're hands.
"Nice to meet you." Rita said. "You as well." Sally said. "Albert has told me all about you two and your kids. I must say, it must be challenging raising 11 kids all by yourselves." She says while looking at the Loud kids. "It is Sally. But it's worth it." Lynn Sr said.
"Our first daughter Lori is now in college in Fairway University." Rita said to Sally. "Fascinating. And they all seem so gifted to." Sally said. "They are. Even our son Lincoln." Lynn Sr said. "I can tell. He just doesn't know how special he is yet." Sally said. "He tries very hard to find out his gift. But he's always there to help his sisters." Rita said.
Sally nods in understanding. "From what Albert tells me, you two made a decision to bring in another boy to your family." Sally said making they're eyes widen. "Oh uh…Yeah. He couldn't come because uh…He…" Lynn Sr tried to think of a lie. "He didn't feel so good. So he back at home with a friend of ours, watching over him." Rita lied.
Sally gets a curious face and nods. "I see. I myself had to take in a family member. My only nephew Benjamin." She said. "Take him in?" Rita asked. "Yes. You see, his parents died in shootout 2 years and he's had no one care for him. I lost my brother and my sister in law that day." She said as she lowered her head in dismay.
Rita and Lynn Sr felt sorry for her. "Gee. That's horrible. We're very sorry Sally." Lynn Sr apologized to her. "Thank you Lynn." She said. "So where is your nephew now?" Rita asked.
"He's back at home working on his latest invention." Sally answered. "Invention?" Rita asked. "Benjamin has a fantastic I.Q. He even went to college at age of 7 and passed through with flying colors." She said feeling proud. Lynn Sr and Rita were impressed. "Wow." Lynn Sr said. "That's very impressive." He said impressed. "And I'm very excited to see it complete when I get home." Sally said.
Then Albert and Myrtle came up to them. "Hi Rita sweetie." Albert said with a smile. "Hi dad. Myrtle." Rita greeted them. "We're so glad to have you and our grand babies with us for the wedding." Myrtle said with a smile on her face. "We won't miss it for the world." Lynn Sr said.
Then Albert noticed Sally. "Sally!" He said as he hugs her. "How good to see you." He said happily. "Good to see you too Albert. Thank you for having me." Sally said. "Of course." Albert said. "It's too bad the Orange Twister couldn't come and join." Myrtle said referring to Michael.
Lynn Sr and Rita's eyes widen when she said Orange Twister out loud in front of Sally as she raised an eye brow. "Orange Twister?" Sally asked in confusion. "It's a…a nickname he calls himself." Rita lied. Sally was still rather curious but shrugged. "Okay." She simply said.
Then Albert was heading back to the table. "Care to join us for lunch Sally?" He kindly asked her. "Why, sure. Thank you Albert." She said thankfully as they walk back to the table. "Sally seems like a nice woman." Lynn Sr said. "She sure does." She admitted.
Back in Royal Woods in the abandon house
Ben was running through the diagnostics of the Omnitrix. As he was doing so, his scanner got a reading and it was spiking at the Loud House. "Huh? This can't be good." He said as looks closely at the readings. "And is doesn't seem to be coming from him." He theorized as he looked back at the Loud House.
Then what he saw next shocked him. "No. It can't be!" He said trying not to believe it.
Back at the Loud House
Michael, Charles, Cliff, Geo and Walt were on the couch watching TV. Michael had a bowl of popcorn on his lap. "Alright boys. It's movie night at the temporary casa de Michael and it's your turn to pick Charles." He said to Charles as he tossed him a bit of popcorn.
Unknown to them outside through the dining room window, a ring portal opened up on the side of the house. "But we are not watching Snow Dogs again." He sternly said. "That movie is the worst." He sang at the last word.
Suddenly the power went out startling Michael and the pets. Michael just got excited. "WOO! Blackout!" He cheered as he grabs a blanket and flashlight. "Ooooooh. Chaaaaaaarles. Cliiiiiif. Geoooooooo. Waaaaaaaalt." He said as a ghost and scared the pets away. "Oh sorry guys. Everything's okay." He assured the pets.
Suddenly, the TV turned back on and started to static making Michael startled. Then he started to get an eerie feeling in his gut. Michael got up and walked away from the couch nervously. "Uh, hello? We did not order a poltergeist." He called out as he walked away from the TV.
As lightning struck, a shadow of someone familiar was seen on the wall. Michael started to hear heavy footsteps out at the front door. "Uh, if this is the pizza dude, this is really unprofessional!" He called out nervously as he walked to the door.
He leaned his head against the door listening to who might be out there. His hand was shaking as he reached for the doorknob. But just before he could open the door, a red blade jabbed through the door around the knob, making Michael jump back in a surprised shock. The blade went around the knob burning it right off. Michael just stood there watching in confusion and fear.
The door slowly opens, revealing the one burning the knob off was none other than Scourage. He glared at Michael with a villainous smile when he opened the door. He had one finger blade out that was red hot at 1000 degrees.
"Snot Boy?" Michael asked shocked to see his evil double back on earth. Scourage blew on the blade making it cool again before retracting it and glared at Michael. "Hello…Wuss. Did you miss me?" Scourage asked Michael in an evil tone.
Michael started to get angry. "I don't know how you got back. But you made a big mistake coming here!" He sternly said as he glared hard at Scourage. "Oh contraire mon frere! The mistake was thinking that you've won. But that was just a prelude, an d'oeuvre, an aperitif, an Amuse-bouche." Scourage said in different languages meaning that was just the beginning.
Michael started to get angry. "I get it!" He tensely said through his teeth. Scourage evil chuckled. "I don't think you do." He said as he invited himself into the house. "But you're about to. And so will that idiot albino freak, his nerdy friend, his ugly sissies, those moronic old couple, those hideous immigrants…" Scourage furiously said referring to the Loud's, Clyde, the Casagrandes and the Chang's which started making Michael angry as his first started to power up with orange energy. "AND YOUR LITTLE PETS TOO!" He shouted out scaring the pets and also doing a reference to the Wizard of Oz.
Michael got triggered and dashed at Scourage ready to beat him up hard. But Scourage moved to the side out of Michael's way and made way for the two kids he met on the Swamp Planet. They both lunged at Michael with the girls gloved fist glowing pink and the boys glowing green as he held one of his sais. Michael slowly got a confused an shocked face. Michael got punched hard making him crash through the stairs and into the kitchen, onto the kitchen table.
Michael got a little dizzy from the punch and groans in pain. When he slightly recovered, he got a good look at his attacker again. "Talk about being too slow on his attacks." The boy said "So pitiful." The girl said agreeing with him.
Michael was still really confused. "What? Who are you two?" Michael asked the mystery duo. Scourage peeked his head through the hole smiling sinisterly. "Where…are my manners?" He asked as he and the two walked into kitchen to confront Michael again. "Wuss…meet Sonia and Manic." He introduced the two now known as Sonia and Manic to Michael. "My new BFFAEs. Bestest Friends Forever And Ever!" He said clarifying what it meant.
Michael holds his hand out drawing the Infinity Sword into his hand. "Look Scourage, I don't care who you brought to help you. You're never going to get my powers!" Michael sternly said and he got up. "Do we look like we need you're powers?" Manic asked while power up his sai. "No. We don't!" Sonia said as her gauntlet powered up.
Michael got really angry and turned to the pets. "You four, go hide!" He told the pets as they all ran down into the basement for safety. Then Michael glare back at the 3 and ran toward them, ready to slash. "SIZEMECH STRIKE! EARTH!" Manic said as he punched Michael again really hard.
Outside in the backyard
The impact of the punch made Michael crash through the wall and into the yard. Michael groans in pain. "Oof. Man this dude packs a punch." He had to admit. Then Sonia and Manic jumped out of the house and into the yard. Sonia adjusted her Gauntlet and Manic punched his fists as they both released some energy.
Scourage then walks out with the bowl of popcorn Michael made. "So nice when diabolical evil lives up to the hype!" He said enjoying the show. "Hey! That's my popcorn!" Michael complained at Scourage. "I don't see your name on them wuss!" He shot back as he ate some.
Michael attack the two again and it became a fight. He noticed they had the same faces as him. "You're faces! You're just like me!" He said in surprise but got punched away by Manic. "We are nothing like you, kid!" He said through his teeth.
One the side of the house, Ben peeked his head around the corner and saw the fight going on. "Whoa." He said astounded as he pulls out his scanner. "They're energy they produce is evenly balanced. Even they're weapons seem to match with his sword. I don't think he can out match them. I gotta get him out of there."
He saw the boy who came to earth a while ago trying to get a car running and had an idea. He looks at the Omnitrix and runs toward the car. "Time to put this watch to the test." He said as he activated the Omnitrix. The hourglass symbol turned into a diamond and silhouette of a creature appeared in the center He turns the dial a few time until he finds the certain silhouette he wanted. "Here it goes!" He said and smashed the core down and was consumed by a bright green light.
Back at the Loud House
Michael was about to slash Sonia with the Infinity Sword. She glared at him and raised her pink gauntlet. "TIME STONE!" She called out as Blue Stone in her gauntlet sparkled. Michael suddenly stopped in place. She then flips over him and kicked him in the back making him fall on his face and brought him out of his frozen phase. "Huh? How did you do that?!" He asked her. "How are you two doing that?!" Michael asked them both, demanding an answer.
Manic held up his sais in his fists. "These are the Infinity Sais of Earth. With these, I actually have an iron fist dude!" He explained why his are so powerful.
Sonia showed him her gauntlet and gemstones. "This is the Infinity Gauntlet of Life. And these gems are the Infinity Stones. With these, I can control any type of matter in the whole universe. Including Space, Time, and Reality." She explained how she was able to make him freeze in place.
Michael's eyes widen and looked at the Infinity Sword. "You mean there are more besides the Infinity Sword?" He asked in surprise. "More than you know." Manic said as he clenched his fists. "But we're getting off track here." He said. "Where is it?!" Sonia asked an odd question.
Michael simply glared at them. "Oh you want it? Here it comes!" He said as he starts to power up with orange lightning. He began to get into his spin position as Sonia and Manic glared of him. "Manic and I expected more out of you." Sonia said. "You're unskilled." Manic said at Michael making him angry. "Untrained." Sonia added in making Michael really mad as he grew more energy. "AND UNWORTHY!" They both shouted at Michael laying in the final nail to they're insults to him.
Michael started to have enough of these new aliens. "You two forgot one." He said to them as he grips the Infinity Sword and his eye glowed orange. "UNSTOPPABLE!" He added in.
After a few seconds, he spins into a tornado and dashed at the two. Scourage had a mouthful of popcorn as he watched the fight. As Michael reached the two, a bright light happened. But just as it died down, Sonia and Manic used they're weapons to hold back Michael while he was spinning. They started pushing him back to the center of the yard and Sonia raised the Infinity Gauntlet and punched Michael down sending pink waves around. Scourage smiled as Michael was taking a beating he scattered popcorn out of the bowl when the waves came his way.
Michael bounced back up after that hard pounding and was grabbed by Manic and was pinned into the backyard tree. "It is our destiny to do what our fellow warriors could not. To restore the ultimate power to the home of our people." Manic said. Scourage overheard the ultimate power part and got interested.
Michael was confused. "Ultimate power? I don't know what you're talking about. You two have the wrong dude." He said to Sonia and Manic while struggling to get free from Manic's grip. "Ultimate power?" Scourage asked as he was getting a sinister idea. "Now you're speaky my language." He said as he got really interested.
Sonia got into Michael's face. "Don't play dumb with me and my brother, apprentice of Rosy." She threatened Michael. Michael's eyes widen when they said Rosy's name. "You knew Rosy?" He asked Sonia and Manic.
"Rosy and her fellow people, the Amazonianas were the sworn enemy of our tribe, the Silver Roncos!" Sonia explained why they knew Michael's last caretaker. "They're the reason our long lost brother is missing." She added in. "We fought and dies in the Amazonianas hands, and now you will die in our hands." Manic said as the Infinity Sais powers up. "Ready sis?" Manic asked Sonia. "Ready Manic." Sonia said as they were ready to kill Michael.
They hear an engine running and saw a car coming into the backyard toward the 3 aliens. Manic dropped Michael and was gonna attack the car. But it hit Manic and knocked him into the garage. Scourage was shocked at that and did his robot movements and sound effects and made a gesture saying what the heck.
Sonia ran into the garage to check on Manic. Michael was recovering from Manic's strong grip as he looked at the car. The mystery boy poked his head out and looked at Michael. "Come on! Get in! I'm on you're side." He said to Michael. "I'm sorry. Who are you?" Michael asked the boy in the car. Then he looks at Sonic and Manic in the garage and heard Manic groan from the impact. "You know what? Doesn't matter." He said.
Michael wasted no time and climbed into the car. Then Scourage jumped onto the windshield startling the 2 boys. "Get us out of here! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!" Michael told the boy as he stepped on gas pedal. The car started moving as Scourage clung on and started going crazy while glaring at Michael while clawing at the windshield and made wild animal noises. "Gah! He's gone rabid!" Michael said freaked out at Scourage's behavior.
Scourage moved over to the other boy and did the same freaking him out, and started licking the windshield. "Gross! Is he licking it?!" The boy asked grossed out. He turns the car around and drive through the driveway and shook Scourage off. "SEE YA!" He said to Scourage.
Scourage landed in the Loud's flower bed and he saw them drive away from the Loud House. "Make sure to get your shots Snot Boy!" Michael called out mocking him. Manic got up as he and Sonia saw that Michael was getting away with the other kid. Manic started growling and both they're eye glowed and they ran after them in pink and green blurs.
Out in the street
The two boys were driving in the streets to get away from Sonia and Manic. The boy driving made a hard turn making Michael scream as he held onto the seat. When they went straight again, Michael looked in the back window and saw Sonia and Manic were after them.
"Wow." The boy said. "So… What's up buck?" The boy asked. Michael raised an eye brow in confusion because he called him buck. "Buck? My names not buck." Michael told the boy driving "I know. That's just how I greet people I meet." He explained to Michael. "Let me just say it's an honor to meet you Michael. Is it okay if I call you Michael?" the boy asked while Michael was surprised he actually knew his name. "My name is Milo Fancy Belt." The boy now known as Milo introduced himself. "You're probably wondering why." Milo figured.
"Let me guess. Because if the golden belt?" Michael simple asked. "That's right. I should have known you'd get that." Milo said with a smile on his face. "Cool." Michael simple said. "Also…What is going on?! Scourage is back? And who is Pinky Pie and the Mean Green Killing Machine?!" He asked Milo referring to Sonia and Manic.
Milo starts explaining while Sonia and Manic were still on they're tails. "Oh. Those two are Sonia and Manic. Two kids orphaned and raise by the Silver Roncos, and two of the most dangerous warriors in the galaxy." He told Michael who they really are. "They've been traveling from planet to planet finding they're long lost brother and they're obsessed with finding the Golden Emerald." He added into they're information.
Michael was confused. "Are you serious? The Golden Emerald? That's just a bedtime story." Michael said to Milo. "Well they believe it's real. And they must think that you're the key to finding it." Milo said. Michael notice the traffic lights turned red. "RED LIGHT! RED LIGHT!" Michael shouted as he pointed at the intersection to Milo and moved to the driver seat. "Give me the wheel." He told Milo as he took the wheel. "Huh? What are you…" Milo asked.
Michael swerved into the intersection while avoiding cars still going by. Michael accidentally hit the curb and broke the steering wheel off. "OH CRAP!" Michael shouted at the broken wheel. But they noticed they were still going straight, which made them confused. "Uh…How are we still going straight?" Milo asked.
Then suddenly, the inside of the car started changing designs. It was now black with green highlights. The sudden change confused the boys. "Uh do all car do this?" Milo asked Michael. "No. Not really." Michael said still wondering what was going on. Then a huge black blob with green highlights popped up making the two scream in fright. "Take it easy. I'm on your side also." The blob said.
"Who are you?" Michael asked. "What are you?" Milo asked. "My name is Ben Tennyson. I'm really a human. I have a device that allows me to turn into aliens. I call this one Upgrade." The blob naming himself Upgrade revealing to be Ben explained. "I got the cars controls." Upgrade said.
Michael and Milo were still confused and amazed at the same time. Michael looked in the rearview mirror and saw a water truck in the intersection but no sign of Sonia and Manic, then sighs in relief. "Ha! I think we lost them." Michael confirmed.
But then Sonia leaped over the truck while Manic punched through the truck. Then they sped up to the car and landed on the roof. Manic punched one of the Infinity Sais through the roof startling Michael, Milo and Upgrade.
"We did not lose them! We definitely did not lose them!" Michael cried out in panic. "You think dude!?" Upgrade asked. "POWER STONE!" Sonia calls out as she rips one of the doors off the car and tried to reach in to grab one of them. "STOP THIS THING NOW!" She demanded them.
Michael was trying to shake them off, but no avail. Milo looked at the guard rail and thought of something. "I got an idea! Do you two trust me?!" he asked Michael and Upgrade while they reinstalled the steering wheel. "Of course not! I literally just met you two!" Michael pointed out. Then Milo grabbed the wheel. "Just let me…" He said as he turn the car off the road making it fall.
Michael and Upgrade screamed in panic as they fell down and Sonia and Manic held on tight to the car. Then Milo grabs Michael and Upgrade's hands and he activated his rocket shoes making him fly with them. Sonia and Manic jumped off the car and Manic stabbed the Infinity Sais into the wall. And the car crashed down into the woods and exploded.
Michael was still screaming thinking he was still falling. But when he opened his eyes, he saw they were flying. "Huh? We're flying." Then he looked at Milo's shoes and was surprised. "Uh, did you turn your feet into rockets?" He asked Milo.
Milo laughed at that. "Rocket feet. Ah. Only Michael in The Hat could come up with something like that." Milo said with a smile. Then the Omnitrix Symbol on Upgrade flashed red and beep and after a couple times of doing so and after being engulfed in a red flash, he transformed back into Ben making Michael and Milo surprised. "Whoa." They both said.
Ben smiled and waved at them. "Uh hey. Ben Tennyson" He introduced himself. Michael shook his hand. "Michael In The Hat." He said. "Milo Fancy Belt." Milo said. Ben nods and looks at the Omnitrix. "I think this thing is a complete success." He said feeling proud.
Michael saw Sonia and Manic were climbing up the wall. "Let's get out of here before they catch up." Michael told the two boys. "Hang on." Milo said as he flew Michael and Ben back into town.
Well, there you have it. Scourage is back on earth, Sonia and Manic are now after Michael, he's met Milo and Ben, and Ben finished the Omnitrix. What's next for our heroes? What are the Loud's doing in Hawaii now? What's the Golden Emerald? Who's Sonia and Manic's missing brother? And why do they think Michael's the key to finding the Emerald? Find out next time. Please Follow/Favorite and review and I'll see you in the next one.
