Vamps stood up and his eyes widened in horror. The device was back on Earth and that was exactly where Ben was sent!
"Whampire! Get to the space ship! We leave now!" Vamps said.
"You can't leave! Who will rule the planet?!" A council member whined.
"I will keep my guards here to ensure no one has any tyrannical ideas," Azmuth said, now summoning two very large Appoplexians who appeared in a frustrated mood. "You all are to do what they say until we return."
The council members gulped and stood back as the Appoplexians grinned mischievous grins. They had the task of ruling the planet until they returned.
Azmuth smirked and then looked back to the brothers. "Come! You need to go immediately! The entire planet of Earth is in grave danger.
Meanwhile…
Ben was pushed out of the ship by a rough guard. "Get on there!" he snarled, now almost making Ben stumble.
"Gosh, I'm going!" Ben snapped, now pulling his jacket up on his shoulders. He then glanced around and shook his head sadly. He was back in the same space port where it all began and he wanted nothing more than to return with Vamps and Whampire. "Well…I'm home."
And with that, he began looking around the area as he began the long trek home. He glanced at the old rusted and broken buildings and wanted nothing more than to just get back to the ruins he called home. As he was walking home, he noticed a strange red light that glowed in the distance and screams being heard! Ben had a bad feeling that something terrible was about to happen! But before he could say anymore, many people and aliens alike ran past screaming and shouting!
"RUN! RUN!" An alien hollered.
"What is it?! What's going on?!" Ben asked, now grabbing him by his shirt and making him stop running.
"It's him! It's him!" the alien screamed.
"WHO?!" Ben said, now losing his patience.
"Ben…Tennyson," a voice hissed through the wind. Ben's eyes widened and he turned around slowly in pure horror. He then let out a scream in terror as Vilgax was standing there, beaten and bruised, but ready to kill him nonetheless!
"Y-you?!" Ben squeaked out, now feeling sweat falling down his face.
"Surprised? Thanks to those pathetic and idiotic humans, they didn't even know what kind of device they had. I barely escaped before the lock timed out," Vilgax said, now dragging out a sword. "You will make a nice decoration for my kingdom Ben."
"S-Stay away from me! And where's Transyl?!" Ben said, now even more worried that the Vladat had escaped too.
Vilgax only gave an evil smile and continued to walk forward. "He's no longer anyone's concern." And with that, he advanced quickly and almost sliced Ben in two if he didn't duck!
Ben screamed in horror and tried to run as fast as he could until he felt the back of his shirt being grabbed.
"GET OFF ME!" Ben screamed, now wailing for help! Vilgax's eyes only narrowed as he raised his sword for the final blow.
"You little rat," he growled, but before could he was slammed hard in the face and Ben was caught as he went flying through the air. Once his vision stopped swimming, Ben saw that Vamps was savagely beating at Vilgax with all his might!
"Whampire! Get Ben to safety!" Vamps said, now pulling and tearing off a few of Vilgax's tentacles!
"Well, well…the king has returned! I will tear you apart with my bare hands!" Vilgax snapped, now grabbing Vamps by the throat, but Vamps did another well-aimed kick to his face.
"You should have stayed where you were monster!" Vamps snarled, now savagely clawing at him. Whampire and Ben stared in shock from the safety of the roof.
"I have never seen Vamps this dangerous in battle. He's almost another person!" Whampire said.
But Vilgax was definitely holding his own as well. He was not known as the terror of the galaxy for nothing! He suddenly spied a rusty old spear on the ground and hurled it in their direction. Whampire caught it but what he didn't see was as he was deflecting the spear, Vilgax shot a laser beam at Ben at the same time!
"WHAMPIRE! BEN! MOVE!" Vamps screamed, now flying at super speed and covering both of them with his own body. He screamed in pain as his back was almost fried to a crisp!
"VAMPS! VILGAX YOU COWARD!" Whampire screamed, now trying to fight Vilgax and punch the living daylights out of him.
Ben looked down and saw Vamps was badly injured and his back was badly scarred. Vamps was breathing heavily and he could barely stay conscious.
"B-ben," he gasped out. "Run. Get out of here."
"NO! I'm not leaving you here!" Ben said, now feeling tears run down his face as he saw Vamps weakly place a hand on his shoulder.
"B-Ben. I don't want you to die. Please run…" Vamps breathed out weakly. Before Ben could say anything else, he saw a bright light appear and Azmuth came forward.
"Vamps is very weak. I need to GAH!" Azmuth yelled as he was almost stomped on by Vilgax who threw a battered and beaten Whampire next to them.
"Perfect. If it isn't the creator of the Omnitrix. Give it to me!" Vilgax snarled now grabbing the Galvan and raising him up.
"No! You…can't have it!" He gasped out, now feeling Vilgax begin to squeeze him!
"STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP!" Ben screamed, now making both Vladats, Vilgax, and Azmuth turn and look at him! Ben then quickly grabbed a pole and then lunged at Vilgax and hit him upside the head with it. Vilgax snarled and threw him hard on the ground, but Ben quickly crawled in front of Vamps and Whampire. "STAY AWAY FROM THEM!"
"Miserable little creature. Pity you won't live through this," Vilgax laughed out, now about to step on Ben since he was trying to protect the Vladats!
"BEN MOVE!" Azmuth pleaded.
"No! I won't let this creep take away anyone else! If you do anything Vilgax you have to go through me!" Ben said, now bravely looking at him.
"Well then…because you have a good heart…the Galvan goes first!" Vilgax growled, now squeezing Azmuth harder, making him choke.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Ben screamed, now about to lunge when suddenly he felt something grasp onto his wrist. He looked down and saw Vamps had moved. He had been hiding the Omnitrix all along and the Omnitrix latched itself onto his wrist! Vamps smiled at him knowingly and nodded.
"Go Ben!"
"B-But I don't know what to do with it?!" Ben panicked, but he gasped as the Omnitrix began lighting up and turning on its own and it landed on a large beast. It resembled a being with a large horn. Vamps saw it was a To'Kustar and within a second slammed it down! Ben then began shifting and soon became a giant To'Kustar!
"NO! NO! THE OMNITRIX!" Vilgax screamed out, now throwing Azmuth. But Whampire made sure to catch the small Galvan to prevent him from slamming against the rocks below. Ben was partially terrified of his new form, but he eyed Vilgax in anger and picked him up and began squeezing him.
"Now you know what it feels like to be almost squeezed to be death! I should kill you for what you did!" Ben said lowly. "I should kill you for killing my parents and for destroying the galaxy and for almost destroying the world!"
Ben had angry tears rolling down his cheeks and squeezed the tyrant harder, making him cry out. But after a second he stopped.
"Azmuth. Please open the null void and destroy the other devices except one so that no one can ever access this again unless it's you!" Ben said angrily, now looking at Azmuth.
Azmuth nodded and pressed a button that also opened the null void. Vilgax began to squirm angrily, knowing that this could be the last time he saw civilization.
"You all will never get rid of me. I will always find a way back!" Vilgax snarled.
"This is the end for you Vilgax," Ben said angrily. "If you ever come back, you will answer to me! I no longer fear you or people like you! People like you should fear people like us!"
And with that, Ben angrily threw Vilgax into the null void but did it fast to prevent the other aliens and criminals from coming out!
"BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNN TENNNNNNNYSON!" Vilgax screamed as he was thrown into the null void and never to be seen again. Within seconds the portal shut!
For the next few seconds, it was pure quiet. No one said a word until Azmuth broke the silence.
"Well done Ben." He said, now walking up to Ben as the Omnitrix timed out.
"I-I didn't really do anything," Ben said. "I just wanted to help."
"Stop that talk young one." Azmuth said. "You did a lot more than you know."
"I couldn't have said it better myself. You protected us all Ben and your bravery was beyond admirable." Vamps said, now standing and placing his hands on his shoulders.
"And you deserve to be hailed a hero on our planet." Whampire said, now nudging Vamps. "Doesn't he Vamps?"
"But of course! Ben, please do us the honors of coming back to our world for a celebration?" Vamps grinned.
"R-Really?" Ben smiled hopefully. "I get to come back!"
"Of course! I mean but only for the celebration." Vamps said in slight warning. Ben's shoulders dropped as Vamps then turned to speak with Azmuth. But Ben turned as he felt a warm hand on his back.
"Do not worry Ben. I would make sure you have all of your belongings and everything you need." Whampire grinned.
"Why Whampire? He said I would have to come back after the celebration." Ben said sadly.
"I know I know." Whampire said, but the prince of Vladats was trying to have a glimmer of hope in his heart. He hoped that by Ben going back to their planet, this would cause Vamps to settle some things in his own heart and mind.
