As Sasha came down the stairs, she noticed that Ben was leaning against the door and smirking at her.

"Well, well, if it isn't Sasha," Ben smiled, now coming forward. His voice, now much deeper and menacing, made her step back.

"W-What is it?" Sasha asked, now somewhat scared.

"I need to talk to you," Ben said.

"F-For what?!" Sasha asked.

"For avoiding me and running off. I've already spoken to Rachel and you're next!" Ben grinned evilly.

"No way! No more bad news!" Sasha said, now using her powers to use a nearby plant vine to wrap around his mouth.

"HMMMMMMM!" Ben said, now trying to get his mouth free.

"Sorry Ben, but until you decide to stay you're going to remain silent," Sasha said, now crossing her arms and looking very pleased with herself.

Ben gave a huff in disapproval and continued to try and get the vine off his mouth so that he could explain. He then gave her an agitated look and Sasha shrugged.

"Sorry Ben, but it's for your own good!" Sasha smiled.

"Mat's mat mou mink," Ben muffled out, now reaching down for his Omnitrix and transforming into Wildvine and ripping the vine off.

"That does it Sasha, c'mere!" Ben said deviously.

"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKK!" Sasha squeaked out and she ran away, hoping Ben wasn't really mad!

"Don't run away! Sasha stop!" Ben called out, now trying to grab her with his vines.

"Ben! Ben don't be angry! I'm sorry!" Sasha called out, now running even faster.

"Stop! I'm not mad Sasha c'mon!" Ben called, now gaining on her and grabbing her with his vines. But Sasha then used her power to try and get him to release her.

"L-Let go!" she said, now wiggling to get free. She had never seen Ben so persistent.

"Oh no. You're not getting away that easily. You're coming with me," Ben smiled, now taking her in his room and gently depositing her on the bed. He then used two vines to hold her arms up and two leg vines to wiggle in her armpits!

"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKK BEHEHEHEHEHEHEEHN NOAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH!" Sasha pleaded.

"No way Sashy." Ben teased, now wiggling some leg vines on her stomach.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA SAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHASHY?!" Sasha asked out.

"Yep. I called you Sashy! And you're not going to get away until you hear me out!" Ben chuckled, now wiggling his vines under her shirt and tickling her abs.

"GAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HEHEHEHEHEHEEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHELP!" Sasha laughed, now trying to use her powers.

"Nope, you can't stop me if you're laughing," Ben laughed, now wiggling the very soft tips of his vines in between her toes.

"GAH! NO! NO NO NO! BEHEEHEHEHEHEHEHEN STAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHP!" Ben laughed.

And within a few moments, his Omnitrix timed out and Sasha lay panting on the bed. Ben smiled and crawled up nearer to her and gently wiggled his finger tips on her stomach, making her giggle.

"Heeheeheeheehee, Behehehehen stahahahahap!" Sasha giggled, now gently doing a defense move and flipping Ben on his back. Soon Sasha was leaning over him and running her nails over his neck and stomach.

"AHAHAHAHAHAH SAHAHAHAHASHA STAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHP!" Ben chuckled.

"I will if you tell me why you captured me and tickled me to death." Sasha smiled at him gently.

"Well, I don't know if I should tell you now. Even though it's great news," Ben smirked.

"Hey!" Sasha protested, now wiggling her fingers in his abs and underarms. "Tell me what's up or I won't stop tickling you."

"GAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA OK OK SAHAHAHAHAHAHAASHA!" Ben laughed out, now making one of his best friends stop tickling.

"Ok, so what is it?" Sasha smiled.

"I'm not giving up the Omnitrix Sasha. I was wrong and if it would make you all that upset, I don't want to do it," Ben smiled as he looked up at her. "Now c'mon and let me up." He chuckled, now wiggling his fingers in her underarms and making her giggle and fall on the bed next to him. He then leaned over and hugged her as she hugged him back.

"Ben, I'm so happy to hear that! We never want you to leave us or give the Omnitrix to anyone else," Sasha said, now cuddling into his brotherly hug.

"I won't. I promise. And now for the even better news! I want you and a few others to come with me on a cruise! Will you come?" Ben asked hopefully. But then he began laughing as Sasha began cuddling him and tickling him with her hair as she glomped him!

"OF COURSE BEN! THIS WILL BE THE BEST TIME EVER!" Sasha laughed in glee as she hugged him tighter and tighter.

"Easy Sasha, I can barely breathe!" Ben laughed, still hugging her and allowing the affection! Within a few moments, she let the hero go.

"I'm so happy to hear that." Sasha smiled. "I can't wait to tell the others!"

"No, don't do that. I will tell them because I can only take a few with me," Ben explained. Sasha nodded in understanding and then both turned as they saw Four Arms walk past.

"Hey! Where are you going Fours?" Sasha called out in a friendly manner.

"I'm going to the gym to work out!" Four Arms called back. "I just gotta grab my stuff."

Ben once more got that mischievous look in his eye and turned to Sasha. "Sasha, I'll meet you and Rachel later. I gotta go and take care of someone," Ben replied.

Sasha giggled as Ben jumped off the bed and took of in the same direction as Four Arms. Looks like he had a brand new large and red target!


guestsurprise: Ben got Sasha and it appears that Four Arms is the next target!
