So sorry for the huge wait!!!

I was looking back on earlier chapters and realized how short everything was 0.0 Sorry about that folks! (Though it probably won't be fixed... hehe...)

Important Note: There are going to be elements from Season 3 in here, if not now then later on.

Moment

"Just one more kiss to soothe the pain exist in a world of lies

Misery take my shame alive

When everything that fails a violent death the smile you gave

Visit me in hell tonight and say

If love exists I will fall"

~Aiden~

Kevin was the first to arrive, probably due to his car. He opened the door and stepped out. Just a big, empty parking lot with no sign there was ever an explosion except for the lingering smoke. There was a loud growl in the distance; too big to be any dog from Earth.

He closed the door shut and laid his hand on the hood, just in case. There was nowhere anything could hide, so he figured that whatever it might be, was underground. Plus, it was starting to get dark, and he knew all too well that all the weird things came out at night. Unfortunately, Kevin was looking for something to jump up and scare him, but he didn't think about something actually being stealthy for a change. He realized it was behind him when it was too late.

He quickly turned, but the creature managed to get in a blow and threw him almost fifteen feet from his precious car. Kevin had just enough time for a quick swipe on the hood to make a protective green shell. While managing to get to his feet, he looked at his attacker. That blow felt way too familiar. Once he realized what it was, he almost fell back down.

The creature, saliva going everywhere, started to charge at Kevin on its four orange legs with no eyes to speak of.

"Well, if that's not déjà vu," Kevin said to himself, "What did he call that thing again? WildMutt or something?" By this time, the WildMutt was close enough to dive in for an attack, but Kevin, having fought this thing countless times, easily dodged it. It spun around, irritated, and growled at Kevin.

Kevin stuck his tongue out and flapped his arms, laughing like a kid. "Come get me, you two-ton spit machine!"

The WildMutt growled at him again and opened his huge mouth. To Kevin's extreme surprise, it fired a gigantic, red laser from said mouth. He barely dodged it that time, while the laser rutted up all of the concrete behind him.

"Well," he said, looking back and forth from the destroyed concrete to the creature, "that's new."

"WOAH!!" Kevin looked up to see Big Chill settling down beside him, "How come I never got to do that!?"

The WildMutt snapped its jaws at Ben, and started growling again. It wiggled into a fighting stance.

Kevin got into a fighting stance himself. "I don't think you ever aimed to kill before," he answered, "But this thing is."

It snapped its jaws again and began to charge for Ben this time. Ben lifted himself into the air and froze the ground in front of the beast. It lost control and slid directly into Kevin's fist. He managed to knock it back a few feet.

The creature got up and shook itself. It opened its jaws wide and fired the laser in a wide arc, causing Kevin to back off and Big Chill to fly higher. It fired again, aiming for Kevin. He lifted the pavement in front of him, making a shield. It didn't withstand the blast though, forcing Kevin to jump away.

By now, it was officially night and the moonlight glistened off Big Chill's wings in an almost rainbow effect. He nosedived for the WildMutt and, once he was in range, froze him.

"HA! Got you! Hehe, tag! You're it!" said Ben, as he started blowing raspberries and making faces to the alien.

"Has anyone told you how mature you are?" Kevin said, at a distance from Big Chill.

Ben looked behind him, "You're just jealous."

Kevin looked at him with the most bored expression on his face yet. "Yeah, that's it," he replied.

The WildMutt and the ice around it started to glow a brilliant crimson. The ice shattered, and the creature roared so loud the ground started to shake.

"Oh, come on!" said Kevin, trying to keep his balance.

Big Chill flew closer to Kevin's side. "Got any ideas?" he said, staring down the WildMutt as the small quake stopped.

Planting both feet firmly on the ground, Kevin said, "None are coming to mind at the moment."

The beast spread his legs to get a firm grip on the ground, then opened its jaws, preparing to fire its laser again.

Bright magenta tendrils rutted up the earth and concrete, creating three solid walls on the sides and back of the WildMutt. Gwen appeared behind it, floating on one of her 'energy' platforms. She blasted the ground and removed a giant piece of concrete shaped like a spear head. She placed it above the alien and was about to slam it through the creature.

Ben, finally breaking out from the speechless phase, screamed, "Gwen!"

She looked over to Ben and Kevin. With the minor distraction, the WildMutt disappeared in wisps of smoke. Once Gwen looked back, it was gone. She powered down causing the walls to fall over and spear head to jam into the earth. Her eyes shot back up to Ben, then she turned on her heel and started walking down the stairs she created.

Ben and Kevin exchanged a look. Ben turned back to human form and ran after her. "Gwen, wait a minute!" he screamed.

Kevin changed back into his regular skin and watched after Ben. He had decided to stay behind and see what Gwen would do. She was defiantly acting weird.

Ben had managed to catch up to her. "Gwen," he said, almost out of breath, "hold on."

She stopped walking, but she didn't turn.

He stopped about a foot away from her. "Are you alright, Gwen? I mean just now you were--"

"Is that all?"

He looked at her a second. "Uh... well, yeah. You're acting kind of... odd. Is everything ok?"

She turned her head to him with a glare. "No, Ben. Nothing is 'ok'."

"Then what's wrong?"

She walked up to him and got in his face. "Everything. Including you." She pushed him, and he fell over on his back.

She started walking away as he leaned up on his arms. She called over her shoulder, "Try to beat a bad guy without me, think you can do that!?"

Kevin ran up to Ben's side. "Gwen!" he called, but she didn't turn and he thought it best not to go after her.

Ben watched after her. "Ouch," he said after a second.

Kevin helped him up. "What? Did she hurt you?" he asked, having not heard their conversation.

"Just my feelings and my pride," Ben said, "That is Gwen, but something is not right."

Kevin looked at the place where Gwen had already disappeared, "Should I go after her?"

"I'm not sure... maybe we should go talk to Julie first," he said, dusting off his jacket, "besides, she can handle herself if anything happens, apparently."

Kevin caught the sarcastic note and looked down at him, but Ben was already walking back to the car. He sighed and, reluctantly, followed after Ben.
