A/N: The long-awaited (well, not really) Chapter 2 is here!! Here, Ben finds out more about who took Gwen. And sorry if I make any spelling misakes... I missed a few spelling classes
"Grandpa, what happened?!" said Ben, still in Heatblast mode.
"I don't know," cried a panicked Grandpa. "I...I don't know what happened... she..a cloud of dust... and then she was gone..."
"I'm going after her!" shouted Ben, as he rocketed upwards in an explosion of flames. Ben was racing in the direction that the cloud of dust went to, when he heard the dreaded winding down of the Omnitrix. Then the Omnitrix timed out, and he was sliding on his stomach for at least 100 feet. He got up and dusted himself off.
"Ugh, stupid Omnitrix!!" shouted Ben as he hit the watch. He started walking again, in the direction of the cloud of dust, when he stepped on something. He bent over and picked it up - Gwen's berette. I must be getting closer to Gwen, thought Ben. He started running.
After a couple more hours of running, he sat down on a rock to rest and regroup his thoughts. Once he was rested up, he got up to continue his journey when he heard distant screams. He recognized the screams as Gwen's own. He looked at his wrist - the Omnitrix was charged up. He pressed the button and slammed it down on Wildmutt. He started to sniff the ground where the being had passed.Once he caught the scent of Gwen's perfume, he started sprinting. Unfortunately, when the scent trail ended, Ben slammed his head into a small shack. He sat up and rubbed his aching head as the Omnitrix timed out.
"Stupid thing.. can't hold a charge worth crap..." griped Ben as he opened the door to the shack. He walked in and scouted the area... nothing strange. But as he walked to a box on the floor, the floor sounded kind of hollow. He moved the box which was filled with bricks, and he found a long dark hole in the floor...
A/N: Well there it was! Stay tuned for the exciting conclusion!
