A giant golden book with a green hourglass symbol appeared from the empty space as it opened up its pages...again.
The Forgotten Ben's: Chapter nine, The Original One.

-Somewhere in space, remnants of the Incursean Homeworld-
Within this ancient system, as pale reddish yellow with black zig zag lined asteroids floated within empty space, a dark green portal opened up on one of the asteroids while a figure stepped out.
The figure, who looked like a tall teen wearing a green bodysuit, green gauntlets with yellow lines highlights, a green helmet, a dark yellow visor, bronze boots and had a green watch on his right arm with a green hourglass on it, looked at the area before raising his right hand. "Reverse."
The asteroids slowly moved towards a single point before reforming into a giant planet with a single moon as the figure stayed still and came to stand in the middle of a barren wasteland of rock.
He sighed. "Looks like I have a lot more work to do. But hopefully, this helped them curb their destructive tendencies."
As he walked around the area, his feet seemed to both erode and reconstruct the rocks under him, a green hue coming from them.
"Ok, so should I jump here." he pointed to the left before pointing to the right. "Or should I jump there? Decisions decisions."
ZOOP!
He blinked while seeing a tear in space and time right next to him, colored a dark white color. "Oh? What do we have here?"
From the portal came a skinny pale skinned teen with shaggy brown hair, green eyes, wearing a white shirt, a dark purple jacket with a black stripe going down the left side, black jeans, dark silver shoes, and had a dark purple wristwatch on his right hand with a purple lens, who looked at the being with a natural expression on his face.
"Huh, another me? Must be a paradox."
The figure looked at him and said. "Benjamin Tennyson of Dimension 091842- 78 TB10-V1, I have come from the vast reaches of the omniverse to find you. Kneel before me and I shall be merciful, cross me and you shall die this day."
"Really? How strange, that wasn't on my to-do list." he said while chuckling a little. "But since you found me, what do you plan on doing? Taking over the world, time, Pluto?"
"I am here." the figure said with a frown before raising the watch up, revealing that it was fused to his skin with purple wires. "To take your title as Time Ben, you are unworthy of it."
He blinked while a little disturbed at the wires. "I see, you and what army exactly? Because I fought Roman gladiators, King Arthur's knights, a very annoyed Spinosaurus, and all of that since I was a kid. Another me is just-"
WOOSH!
BOOM!
He moved his eyes back and saw a destroyed rock behind him as the figure's right arm glowed purple.
"Do NOT mock me!" he growled before sending a blast of purple energy at the teen, only for him to jump to the side as a mountain rapidly shrank back into nothingness in an instant.
"Ok." he said while slamming the watch and turned into a pale green crystalline humanoid with dark green eyes, a semi-cubic head, ten large diamond shards on his back and on his shoulders, with the lower body and torso covered in dark magenta crystals, dark green lines around his chin and legs, and had a green lense on his chest. "Looks like you can control time, but I'm the best at my craft."
The figure frowned before seeing a wave of diamonds rushing towards him from the ground as he jumped to the side and attempted to hide behind a rock, only for the humanoid to appear behind him from a green portal and punched him through it. "GAH!"
"Really? Hiding, that's just silly." he chuckled before trapping him with the gems. "Had enough?"
He struggled a little before slamming the watch into a rock.
FLASH!
And turned into an identical copy of the humanoid, but with dark crystals and purple eyes, as he broke out and punched the humanoid in the face.
He staggered before getting punched again and again as he gave the negative copy a punch to the stomach and stunned him enough to use a green energy covered left foot to kick the ground open, causing lava to erupt from it. "Looks like I have to drag you back to the Precambrian!"
BASH!
"GAH!" he hissed in pain as the 'copy' had just bashed his head in with his own head.
"You do not deserve the powers of time." the copy frowned before knee kicking him into a rock formation and sent diamond shards at him from his hands. "Born with all that power and what do you do? Squander them by fixing the past, pathetic!"
"Gah!" he raised his hands up as a spire of crystal blocked the attack.
"Fixing everything will only lead to more mistakes." he frowned before running towards the humanoid and jumped over it, using a purple energy to accelerate himself forwards as he pinned the being down. "You fix the K-T Event, you create a world full of dinosaurs, you stop Hitler and someone else will take his place, all you are doing is ruining the flow of time." he then axe kicked him in the stomach. "Only I can have that power you had since birth, only I can handle the responsibility of preserving time, ONLY I CAN BE THE ONE TRUE TIME BEN!"
"Ugh, you talk too much." the humanoid grunted before using a bladed left hand to cut the 'copy's' leg off, allowing him to kick the being off him. "Besides, I have fixed everything and everyone loves me, even my enemies."
He frowned before reforming his leg and formed a blade on his left arm. "That is what will kill you."
Both charged at the other, blade hitting blade, as they used their own abilities to alter the landscape itself.
Raising or falling mountains, the formation of oceans, the eruptions of a million volcanoes, all created or destroyed by the warring beings of time itself. However, the day would end in an unexpected way.
CLANG!
CLANG!
The humanoid clashed with his darker counterpart as he was slowly starting to tire while his 'copy' didn't. 'Shit, I need to head to another time, warn someone about him-'
SLASH!
He gasped in pain as his symbol was hit by the copy, causing it to spark.
"Checkmate." he said as the humanoid turned back to human form, only for him to grab his hand and slashed it off.
"AHHHHHHHHH!" he cried out in pain as the watch fell to the ground, blood oozing from the stump.
"No more surprises." he said before forming crystals all over his body except for his head and left arm. "Time to claim my prize."
"Ah...you win...just go…" he groaned while his hand jiggled a loose crystal as the figure changed back to his normal form and smirked.
"Who said I was done? I am here to claim the title, and." he grabbed his face as the watch began to glow. "Your powers."
He felt the hand squeezing tightly against his very bones before he jammed the crystal into the lense.
BOOM!
Causing it to break into a thousand pieces, but revealed a black core that seemed to beat like a human heart.
He looked down before flicking his left index figure around, causing the watch to be immediately fixed. "Poor choice."
CRUSH!
The skull of the fallen hero broke into itself as a flash of green energy erupted from his body and entered the teen.
FLASH!
"Ah…" he sighed with ecstasy as he was now a tall muscular man with a full beard, although his clothes seemed to have ripped a lot from the change. "The power. It is mine at last."
The crystal slowly broke apart as he saw the body hitting the dirt, decaying rapidly until only the suit remained.
He smirked before dressing himself within the clothes, which turned black with purple highlights, a black visor and silver boots in the process. "I feel so alive."
The wind picked up as he cackled a little.
"To think he deserved the title of Time Ben. I worked for my powers, and him? He did nothing but help others, heh." he twisted his hands as several plants formed around him, only for them to be turned into a black cape that went around his back. "A god needs not comprehend it's insects, only themselves. And I, the great and powerful Ben Tennyson, lay claim to his fools title. I cast aside my name to become the TRUE Time Ben! And soon the omniverse will tremble at my mere name, for I shall become it's god!"
ZOOP!
A purple portal appeared behind him as he turned around, the cape moving in the gale like wind storm that formed on this planet, and entered it.
"It is time for destiny to be remade, in MY image."

Name/Designation Title: Benjamin Kirby Tennyson (Time Ben V1- TBen-V1)
Age: 15
Affiliation: Good
Dimension: 091842- 78 TB10-V1
Trix/Abilities: the omnitrix, the ability to travel through time.
Aliens used: Diamondhead.
Bio: In this time and place, this Ben Tennyson actually developed the ability to travel through time at will, allowing him to see and interact with the past and future. For most of his adventures, utilizing the omnitrix that Azmuth gave to him during his travels through the timestream, he has actually helped change history for the better. Some of these feats are: Saving the dinosaurs from extinction, fighting Mordred with King Arthur, rescuing the contents of Alexandria from it's destruction, stopped Vesuvius from erupting on Pompeii, having a night of passion with both Cleopatra and Mulan (sources vary with the second one), stopping the atomic war on Prypiatos, and just recently, remaking the Incursean Homeworld. However, due to his powers, he became cocky and a little pretentious as things just seem to go his way, but he would help those in need even if they were his enemies, earning him the moniker of 'The Peace Maker of Time'. Sadly, this version would die of 'unknown' circumstances that baffle even the smartest minds of that dimension, for nothing was left to trace or bury in his grave, not even an omnitrix core. Currently, his death is a cold case to some, and an open and book case for those that view the being known as Eon as his killer, although no evidence has been obtained for verification that came under omniversal court.
