Ben slowly came too. The last thing he remembered was a large smokey environment with two figures walking up to him. He gasped as he sprang up from lying on a cold, hard, stone concrete floor, "Gwen! Grandpa!" His face met with another face when he sat up. A horrifying face. He looked at it, shivering in fear. The face did nothing but stare at him, with it's soulless eyes. Seconds passed until it screeched very loudly at Ben. Ben's response was to scream bloody murder as he was face to face with the scariest thing he had ever seen in his life.
And he should know. He's dealt with this creature before.
"Ugh..." Grandpa said as he held his head. He got up onto his feet, still gripping his head from the massive headache he had. It was at that point he realized what had happened. "Gwen? Ben? You two alright?" He asked as he tried to keep steady. He looked around himself and was scared to see that Gwen, Ben and Cosmo were not anywhere to be seen. Neither was the Black Arm.
"Oh, no... Gwen? Ben? Cosmo?" He said in a shaky voice. There was no response. He decided to try it one more time, "Gwen! Ben! Cosmo!" He yelled loudly, in hopes that they would respond. There was no vocal response, but there was a response. A loud Clang was heard from inside the Rust Bucket, as well as a small yelp. Grandpa looked at the vehicle and walked up to it. He opened the door and said, "Ben? You in here?" When he looked inside, there was a sight that he was not expecting.
The Black Arm was inside the RV, it clutching it's head in pain. There was a small box of tools on the ground, scattered as if they had fallen. Max then noticed that Gwen was inside the Rust Bucket too, though unlike the alien, she was unconscious. The Black Arm had let go of it's head and it grabbed Gwen, hoisting her up onto the bed inside the RV. He half-succeed. He got her upper half onto the bed, but her legs dangled off of it. It then grabbed both of her feet and threw them onto the bed. It patted her on the back before turning around, seeing Max as it did so.
Max looked on with a face of curiosity. The Black Arm looked back. It waved it's hand as it walked towards the door. But Max stepped in it's way. The Black Arm looked up at Max and then stepped to it's side. Max did the same, blocking the Black Arm's path. The Black Arm then took another side-step, as did Max. It side-stepped rapidly until Max was no longer in it's way and it could get out of the vehicle.
"Hey!" Max yelled as he ran out after the alien. He looked around and saw that the Black Arm was trying to pick up Earthia. Unfortunately, it was not strong enough to pick her up and the sight that Max looked upon was quite amusing. Max walked up to Earthia and the Black Arm.
It tried to pick her up by the legs. He decided to pick up Earthia by her head and shoulders. The Black Arm looked at him when he did this. Max looked at him as well. The Black Arm then walked backwards into the RV, holding Earthia by the legs, with Grandpa holding her upper parts.
Cosmo eyes slowly opened, the seedrian finally coming to. She tried to rub her head as it hurt for some reason, but she could not. She looked over at where her hands were and saw that there were restraints holding her hands down on a metal table. The same applied for her feet, as her ankles were held by restraints as well. She looked around and saw that next to her was a control panel with a bunch of dull, gray, buttons on it. She then looked right above her and was amazed that she didn't see what was above her before. It was some sort of death ray. She tried to pull out her hands from the restraints, but they were too tight. It was at this point that she heard a slight creek from across the room. She tried to lift her head up to see what had just made that noise. Whatever it was, it was soon followed by a loud Clunk. She wasn't able to properly see what had made the noise until it-or rather Who-had just made that noise. "Hello, alien." Said the figure who walked into the room.
"W-who are you?" Cosmo said to the man, sounding incredibly frightened.
"Do not be afraid, little one," Said the man before her. He leaned into the light to reveal his face. Or rather-reveal the golden mask that was obstructing his face, "I am Enoch. Leader of the Forever Knights. And you are my, 'Guest.'"
Ben cowered in fear in the corner of the room he was in. As it turned out, there was not just one of this horrifying creature, but five of them! They all screeched at each other and at him as well, their soulless eyes making contact with him every so often. His eyes stayed wide and he held his knees close to his chest.
Alright, well this is the third time that things didn't go according to plan. Hooray for Moronicness!
So, this chapter was originally supposed to be twice as long and end at a different scene, but I felt a bit guilty for not posting in the past few days, so, here it is! Sorry that it's not longer.
But on the bright side, I'm going to go to my grandparents for the weekend and they have a computer that does not have two things that this one does. Sound(Which is half the reason I get on YouTube) and Minecraft. So I should be able to write and upload more often then now. But then again, not only I am a king at procrastinating, but I also have plans to play Monopoly with my Grandma and my sister, and God Himself already knows that'll go on for 3 hours.
And, to the guy who asked for Heatblast in this chapter, nope. Sorry, not yet, I have plans for the Man of magma, but they ain't for now. Also, do me a favor and tell me what you think of this chapter before telling me what to do with the next one. Not trying to be rude, but I'm pretty sure that the point of a review is to say what you think of the story/chapter/etc.
And before we end this small chapter, I have two questions for you guys. #1 Who do you want to see in the next chapter, Modern Ben or Classic Ben? And #2 I've been thinking about this (And have been leaning towards the answer "No") Should I introduce Victini as an Alien for Classic Ben? I don't want to do Deoxys because that's kinda already been thought up by... every Pokemon and Ben 10 fan.
