Well, finally here it is. sorry again for the long wait, I'll try to be quicker with the next one. enjoy.
He was on top of her, their bodies melting together as they got hotter and hotter. The powerful aroma of her sweat was intoxicating, filling up his nostrils with every breath. He could feel himself slipping away from all of his senses, as he became consumed in ecstasy. "Ben!" she cried, as they continued their dance. "Ben, Ben!" she kept saying his name again and again. "Ben. BEN! BEN!" okay now this was getting a little weird. "COME ON TENNYSON WAKE UP!" Ben suddenly snapped awake as he felt a hand slap him roughly across the face. "Kevin! Don't hit him," came Gwen's response. "What? We needed to wake him up, and now he's awake." Ben sat up, rubbing his bruised cheek, "yeah well I wish you could have been a little gentler." "Ah you'll get over it, anyways, we didn't think you'd want to miss breakfast, your grandpa told me I could cook. Ben jumped out of bed, throwing his clothes on as quickly as he could. "Grandpa Max is letting you cook? What is he sick?" "I don't know," Kevin responded, "I ran into him when I got up this morning. he pulled out the grill and a container of frozen food, told me I was making breakfast, then walked off into the woods, haven't seen him since." Ben was shocked, it wasn't like Grandpa Max to not want to fix one of his infamous inedible meals; something was up. "Oh and he also said to tell you to go find him as soon as you're finished eating, said to look over that way." Kevin added, pointing. Now Ben was really confused. What on earth could Grandpa Max be planning?
Well it didn't matter right now. He was starving, and decided to go get something to eat. Ben's appetite was especially heightened knowing that the food was not only going to be edible, but it was going to taste good too. He threw on his jacket and crawled out of the tent, squinting as the light blinded him. The sun was already high up in the sky; Ben guessed it must be about 9:00. He spotted the table where everyone was already eating and began to make his way over. Halfway there, the noticed Julie, and suddenly lost his appetite. He turned instead towards the woods in the direction Kevin had indicated. As he was walking through the trees, Ben kept thinking about what Gwen had said to him last night. He wasn't really sure he could tell Julie he wasn't interested anymore, but Gwen when she was angry could be quite terrifying. After a little while he came to a field, which he recognized as the one where he had met up with Helen the previous night. He though back to last night, remembering how she had so quickly reacted to him surrounding her, how startled she had seemed, and how poised and ready she was as she waited for his next move. God she was beautiful.
"Hey Ben there you are!" Grandpa Max's voice broke the trance as Ben suddenly looked around. "Hey Grandpa Max," Ben replied, "Kevin said you were looking for me?" "Yeah, I could use your help with something Ben. C'mon I'll show you; I just finished setting up." He led Ben over to the middle of the field. "Uh, I don't see anything Grandpa." Ben noted, cocking an eyebrow. "Just watch," came the reply from Grandpa Max. He pulled out one of his plumber gadgets and pressed a few buttons. Suddenly, the field was alive with activity as panels opened up in the grass and odd assortments of contraptions rose from the ground. Ben chuckled, Grandpa Max had set up something similar for him when he was younger; it was a training ground. Except this training ground, was a little more high tech than some tires and cans set up with rope and wood planks, there were all sorts of robotic arms and weaponry, and lasers and other things as well. "Now check this out Ben" said Grandpa Max with a grin. He pressed another button, and walls rose up from the ground around them, before long the two of them were standing in the middle of a giant maze. "I need to test out our trainees over there, and need you to help me train them by becoming part of their training ground. Use your Omnitrix, but don't overpower them, just find out what their capable of, I'd recommend a sonorosian; what you call Echo Echo.
Ben agreed to help Grandpa Max, not that he could've turned him down anyway, and headed back toward camp. His stomach growled furiously as he walked back, he wished he had eaten before he found Grandpa Max. He decided he'd eat, and then try to find Julie, as scary as it would be to tell her he didn't want to date her anymore, Gwen was worse. "Oh hey ben, there you are!" Julie's voice interrupted his train of thought. Speak of the devil, ben thought to himself. "Oh uh, hi Julie, uh, funny meeting you here." He stammered, unable to think quickly enough. "Yeah I was just looking for you," she giggled back, "I noticed you didn't come to breakfast so I went looking for you, what's up?" "Oh you know, just going for a walk, clear my head, but I'm heading back now." He replied nervously. "Oh, what's on your mind?" she asked as they began to walk back. Oh, shit, Ben thought as he quickly tried to come up with something. Unable to formulate a good enough lie, he figured he may as well tell her. "Well, um, actually I need to talk to you about that" "well, we are talking aren't we?" Julie asked. Ben gulped, "yeah" he said "listen um…. Well… uh, you see… uh, I'm…not, really… any longer, interested in dating you." He let out a huge breath as he finally spat it out. Julie stopped, narrowed her eyes, and took a long pause. "So, you're breaking up with me? Is that it?" she finally asked. Ben struggled to respond. "Well yeah, I um well you see—""okay!" she cut him off, smiling slightly. "Wait, you're not mad?" ben gasped, utterly bewildered. "No of course not!" she laughed, "I've actually been waiting for you to come tell me this, It's obvious you're not into me anymore, and you clearly like Helen, it would be silly of us to continue our relationship, so why don't you just go ask Helen right now?" Ben couldn't believe it, not only was she not mad, but she knew that he liked Helen and had been waiting for him to break it off. "Julie I… I don't know what to—""Just go get her, Ben" she cut him off, hugging him. "We'll still be friends okay?" "Okay" he replied, dumbstruck. Without a second thought, not even breakfast, he ran off to find Helen.
