Chapter Five: The Omnitrix

I DON'T OWN BEN 10!

"Plan?" I bounded after him. "What plan? You had a perfect plan until everyone turned against you."

He shushed me. "That is all part of my plan. Do you think I care about anyone else? I had this plan forever, but I needed someone to convince them all to start it."

"Me," I realized.

"Yes. And now, you and I can try and escape."

"How?" I demanded. "And why do you want to free me? Why do you care?"

He didn't answer; he only chuckled.

Then, my life changed forever.

A green flash of light attracted my attention. "I'm gonna chew you up and spit you out!" a rough voice shouted. Both Gamma and I turned.

I saw a small alien run past—a Gourmand. He was green, and his outfit was black and white. What kind of alien wore something like that? And what was that little plate on his hand?

It can't be...

The Gourmand stopped running, four thin tongues shooting out of its mouth to wrap around some alien's jetpack. He tore it off the alien's back and ate it whole—without chewing!—and ran towards an unseen alien. Who was he after? I followed him; discreetly, of course. Gamma went in another direction, seemingly uncaring about the disruption in this world.

I got far in front of the Gourmand so I could see.

He jumped onto a tube, and spat a glob of acid into the air. It flew towards the far side of the room, and exploded in the face of a cloaked figure. I never noticed him before.

The Gourmand continued to shoot globs of acid at that same cloaked figure while running along the pipe, until the cloak fell off. The alien was a female Chimera Sui Generis. She preformed lithe jumps and backflips to avoid getting hit.

The Gourmand emerged from the green smoke. I didn't see what happened next, but now, the Gourmand was being held up by the tail. I got closer so I could hear.

"What are you doing?" the Chimera Sui Generis demanded.

"Hey!" the Gourmand exclaimed. He was now spinning around slowly by the tail as he tried to look at the alien holding him. "That voice!—You're not Vilgax—you're a girl!"

Vilgax? I thought, recalling the alien warlord I had actually worked for once. What's he got to do with this?

"I noticed," the female said sarcastically. She then kicked the little green guy, sending him flying. I followed.

A beeping sound emerged from that little disk on his paw...and with a marvelous explosion of red light, he transformed...into a human! It was a young male, with brown hair and a white and black shirt. He had a big watch on his wrist, one that was oddly familiar.

No... I thought. It can't be...

A red-haired female ran up to the boy, helping him stand.

"He turned into a human!" a Pisccis Volann said, turning. "But how?"

It all made sense. I flew over to them, staring at the watch on his wrist. "The Omnitrix!" I shouted. "He's wearing the Omnitrix!"

Everyone turned. He was indeed wearing the Omnitrix. Now, everyone in Incarcecon came forth—we all wanted that watch!

"It does exist!" one alien said.

"That's our ticket outta here!"

"The Omnitrix; he's got it!"

"I think we're in trouble..." the boy said to the girl, both of them backing away as we grew nearer. The girl responded, but I didn't understand. Something about a mall...

The boy was messing with the Omnitrix; every time he tapped the side button made me mad. I deserved that watch!

"Looks like we're on our own," he told the female.

"I was afraid you were going to say that," was her response.

They backed up further before the girl ran over to the far wall, tearing out a small metal pipe, brandishing it like a sword. I was so close to laughing. The boy kneeled down, doing a similar action by ripping a stubby pipe from a groove in the floor. He held it out in front of him, as if he could protect himself with it.

"Careful," one stout alien warned. "With that thing on his wrist, he can become any one of us he wants."

"Yeah," a long-necked alien said uncertainly, "but if he knew how to control it, he would have used it by now."

I couldn't take any more of standing around. "Gimme that thing!" I shouted, shooting forward.

Those humans were tough, I'll give them credit. That one small blow from the girl's pipe was enough to knock me aside and knock me out.

I woke up to see orange electricity flashing around the Omnitrix, the boy and everyone around him knocked unconscious. Then, the girl and an armored figure ran up to the boy. I saw Gamma kneeling not a far ways off, rubbing his head.

Soon, a ship appeared, docking at the ledge that caused most aliens to die. But not today! Today, it shall be my freedom!! I flew over slowly.

The armored figure picked up the boy and ran, followed by the girl. They jumped nimbly into the ship, followed by several aliens that could make that jump. One of them was Gamma. I did not care. He was gone from me. I saw the Chimera Sui Generis jump onto the ship as well.

"YOU ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO BE IN THIS MAXIMUM SECURITY AREA," a mechanical voice shouted over the intercom. "EXIT NOW OR YOUR SHIP WILL BE DESTROYED."

The armored figure punched and whacked at the aliens to get them off his ship. As the ship flew away, I followed, as well as a bunch of robot security drones.

I saw the armored figure ready to punch the Chimera Sui Generis, but something from the boy stopped him. He then helped her up, finally noticing me, as well as the drones.

"You're not leaving without me!" I shouted.

I flew faster, but the armored figure's hands grabbed both of my arms, stopping me. He held me over the side.

"Ben! He shouted to the human boy. "The hatch!"

A red laser shot blasted into the cargo bay. "We're going to be blown to bits!" the Chimera Sui Generis shouted nervously.

The human boy said something inaudible.

Finally, another shot was fired, and the armored figure turned me around. The laser blast hit me in the back, sending me flying...straight into one of the robot drones.

To those that read this... Tell me if the scene from the movie is right. I typed this part while watching it.
