Inspector 13
Kevin was in his car feeling quite happy, he had had another outing with Gwen which had ended with an intense make out session in the back of his car, as he kept replaying the event in his head, he was broken out of his day dream however as he saw someone wearing a white, full bodysuit with various pockets and a utility belt walk past his car and up to the door of his garage. "and just what do you think you're doing?" he said quietly to himself as he saw a small thin metal claw come out of the persons head and zapped the button causing the door to open and he walked in. Kevin got out of his car and watched as the man scanned the Techadon Robot in his garage, as the man muttered some gibberish Kevin absorbed the metal on his car "boy did you break into the wrong place" Kevin said making the man turn around to reveal his green face "now step away from the robot nice and slow and I won't have to beat you up...much"
"detecting residual omnimatrix energy signature, collating variants"
"I warned you" Kevin said as he formed both hands into mallets and began swinging them at the intruder who surprisingly dodged very well but not well enough as Kevin managed to land a solid hit to the man's stomach bringing him to his knees "now tell me why you're breaking into my garage"
"activate disabling shells" he groaned out, six small turtle shell-like disks emerged from the man's utility belt which expanded in size and spun around Kevin before shocking him. Kevin yelled out in pain before he turned back to normal and fell to the ground unconscious "disabling shells field test successful" he said as he stood back up and a small radar scanner came out of the man's head "tracking omnimatrix energy signature" he said and he left the garage while holding his aching stomach.
The next day
Gwen arrived at Kevin's garage to find him lying on the ground she kneeled down next to him she began to gently shake him he began to groan "Kevin are you okay?" she asked
he sat up holding his head before he basically sprang to life "power up Gwen this guys!...totally not here anymore" he said before he looked out the garage door "holy crap what time is it!"
"about 10:30, Kevin calm down and tell me what happened" Gwen said
"we are so screwed"
"why? what happened?"
"I'm pretty sure that a Techadon Weapon Master was here last night"
"is that a new type of robot?"
"no it's the guys who make them"
"so why are we screwed?"
"because they never leave their home planet"
"and if they do it usually means trouble?"
"BIG trouble"
"so what was he doing here?"
"I think he was scanning our robot for something he also spoke a heap of gibberish and said some stuff about the Omnitrix...he's after Ben!"
"don't worry I'll teleport us to him" she then turned into her Anodite form and chanted some words before they both disappeared in a pink flash
Earlier
Ben was in the park playing with Ship, well at least that's how it started out, one person asked Ben to turn into Jetray, then another asked him to turn into Shocksquatch, one request led to another and the next thing they knew Ben and Ship were entertaining a huge crowd by fighting each other, fake fighting of course. Unfortunately the show came to a halt as a huge metal cube came out of the sky and landed 3 meters in front of Ben luckily everyone had managed to clear the spot just in time with most of the people leaving the area, a door slid up to reveal the same man whom Kevin had encountered last night "next time you should find a clearer area to land in" Ben said clearly unhappy
"omnimatrix signature located, device is fused to Terran adolescent, anomalies extent" the man said
"could you stop ta-"
"deploy scanalysis array" he said and tiny metal claws extended from the metal bits on his head and began scanning the Ultimatrix in his arm
"alright buddy that's enough" Ben said as he grabbed the claws and crushed them
"omnimatrix contains multiple code variants extent, energy patterns deviate from known exemplars, further analysis cybernetic attachment gives Terran adolescent enhanced strength, closer examination is required, deploy molecular vice" ribbons made of some kind of metal emerged from the mans utility belt and wrapped around Ben only for Ben to bust free
"it's not just my arm that's strong it's my whole body" Ben said before Ship turned into a small laser and shot the man in the chest sending him flying back and into the metal cube
"deploy electromagnetic pulse wave" he said a whirring sound was heard and Ship turned into a puddle on the ground while Ben just collapsed
"da one bad ting dat been part machine is dis" Ben said in a rather dopish voice
"the effects are only temporary" the man said as he stood up and dragged Ben into his ship.
By the time Ben recovered and his brain was fully functional again he was now strapped to a floating table, he tried to break free but even with his Tetramand level strength the restraints wouldn't break. Looking ahead he saw the man standing in front of a table that had multiple different tools on it "well while we're currently prisoner and captor would you care to enlighten me on who you are?" Ben asked
"I am Inspector 13, Weapon Master of Techadon, you are implicated in my ongoing investigation of failed Techadon units" Inspector 13 stated
"you're a Weapon Master? No one has ever seen you before"
"correction, no one has ever seen us and lived"
"well that's comforting to know, so care to explain why you captured me"
"new data collected indicates that the omnimatrix has been modified"
"it's actually the Ultimatrix now, the original Omnitrix was destroyed a few months ago"
"directive, Galvan technology must be acquired and exploited, my original objective was just to take the Omnimatrix from you, however seeing as how your cybernetic enhancements are also Galvan technology I shall be taking those as well" three disks came floating up before spiked blades protruded out of the side which then began spinning, now acting like buzz saws.
Not showing a fraction of fear watched the disks get closer "if you remove the Ultimatrix and my cybernetic parts like that then boom" he said making the disks stop
"boom? Define boom?" Inspector 13 asked
"the Ultimatrix and my cybernetic parts are all linked, cut them off like that and there'll be an explosion that will rival that of a Techadon Mark 10 Photon Bomb" Ben replied in a serious tone though he was bluffing.
"deploy code spool, access Galvan security measures and breach" Inspector 13 ordered, a hatch opened up on the table Ben was strapped to and a tendril came out of it and locked onto the Ultimatrix before wires came out of it and attached themselves the Ultimatrix "accessing Galvan code" a computerized voice said "firewall 1 breached, firewall 2 breached, firewall 3 breached" the Ultimatrix stated
"wow I'm impressed, but I bet you can't-"
"master control access granted"
"oh that was a big mistake" Ben said as Inspector 13 grabbed a sharp tool. Just as Ben was about to call out an alien there was a pink flash of light as Gwen and Kevin appeared "hey guys how's it going?" Ben said before alarms went off
"warning, warning Anodite and Osmosian detected"
Kevin absorbed the ground turning black as he did "time for round two" Kevin said forming his hands into scythes this time he began swinging at Inspector 13 who dodged just as well as last time he then pulled out an energy sword and swung at Kevin slicing off both of his scythes before he ran towards his chair while Kevin reformed his hands.
Once he was in his seat cables came out and connected to the metal things on his head "accessing internal defence grid" he said before a metal column came down from the ceiling almost crushing Kevin, Gwen however had just finished freeing Ben with her powers when a column shot up from the ground between them which she quickly sliced in half, seeing more coming towards them she be began spinning around and a pink twister formed around her that went all the way to the ceiling. Every column that touched the twister instantly exploded, Ben watched in awe as the twister glowed brighter before mana blasts began shooting out in all directions destroying column's and damaging all equipment in the room. Kevin and Ben instantly hit the deck as the mana blasts flew over them "deploy plasma cage" Inspector 13 ordered, a large device then came down from the ceiling and zapped the three heroes.
Ben and Kevin were zapped by the white beams and groaned a bit in pain with Kevin turning back to normal while the beam aimed at Gwen slowly pierced its way through the pink twister sending white and pink sparks flying in all directions with a large pink one zapping Ben's arm causing the face of his Ultimatrix to light up brighter than usual. The beam finally hit Gwen and turned her back to normal while also cancelling out the twister, Ben stood up angrily "alright ugly lets see how you like, Humungousaur!" he called out hoping that the master control worked the same way as his Omnitrix had, a glowing green sphere appeared around his arm with sparks flying everywhere before two beams shot out and struck Kevin and Gwen, he then watched in shock as Gwen turned into a female version of Four Arms, while Kevin turned into a slightly more buffer version of Spidermonkey
"well, this is new" Gwen said as she looked at herself
"uh Ben I think the Ultimatrix is busted" Kevin said casually
"you're telling me, that mana shock I got must have scrambled it" Ben stated as he saw that the dial wasn't lighting up anymore
"intruder alert, Tetramand and Arachnichimp present in work shop" the computer voice called out
"how's the rest of you Ben?" Gwen asked worried that the mana shock had also damaged his cybernetic parts
"just fine" Ben replied before the floor opened up beneath Gwen and Kevin causing them to fall out of the craft which was now a few miles up in the air. "Guys!" Ben called out, he was about to go after them when a metal tendril wrapped around his ankle and yanked him back with the hole sealing up, Ben then jerked himself up and broke the tendril with one bite before landing in a crouched position.
Ben glared at Inspector 13 "deploy photon shields" he said and a yellow dome surrounded the seat he was in just as Ben punched it the force of which caused the shield to wobble "reacquiring Galvan technology" he said, just as Ben was about to hit the shield again two larger tendrils appeared and tried to zap him with lasers but Ben managed to dodge them.
Meanwhile
Gwen and Kevin still as Four Arms and Spidermonkey were still free falling, during their fall Gwen had managed to grab Kevin and was now holding him gently while also protectively "don't worry Kevin I'm sure I'm durable enough as Four Arms to survive the fall" she said
"can't you use your mana powers" Kevin asked
"I tried but they wouldn't work" Gwen replied as she saw the ground get closer and closer, closing their eyes they braced for impact only to come to a jerking halt. Opening their eyes they looked and saw Ship in it's Armour form holding them
"Ben?" it asked
"not exactly" Kevin replied as Ship slowly floated down until it landed on top of a building, once Gwen and Kevin were back on their feet Ship began backing away from them
"it's okay Ship it's us Gwen and Kevin" Gwen said in a calming tone
"Ben?" it asked
"that Weapons Master still has him" Kevin replied as Ship turned back to normal and just looked at the two before finally saying "ship" and it rubbed it's head on Gwen's leg.
Back on Inspector 13's ship
Ben kept leaping back to avoid the lasers constantly shooting at him, a huge metal claw then came down from the ceiling and right on top of Ben, Ben was now starting to be crushed as he tried to force the claw back up "if you surrender now I will make the extraction of the omnimatrix as well as the rest of the Galvan technology that makes up your being, as painless as possible" Inspector 13 offered
"not. Gonna. Happen!" Ben shouted and using his immense strength he tore the claw off and used it to crush the tendrils that kept trying to attack him "look buddy it's clear here that I can easily handle anything you can throw at me, how's about you just drop me off somewhere and I'll forget this whole thing ever happened" Ben said
"Galvan weapons technology must be acquired and exploited, by any means necessary" Inspector 13 stated the
"look if you want the Ultimatrix so bad why don't you just get Albedo to show you how it's made"
"who is this Albedo you speak of?"
"he's the one who made-" Ben was cut off as the ship shook violently making him drop the claw
"docking maneuver complete" the computerised voice said before a large door opened up "scavaging materials for repairs" the voice said again and long claws extended into the opened doorway, Ben blew Inspector 13 a raspberry before he ran off through the door and into a dark Techadon factory but thanks to the night vision in his cybernetic eye he could easily see where he was going.
Ben jumped up and hid in the cranes above just as the lights came on, as he deactivated his night vision his Ultimatrix began flashing "activate communication" Ben said and he began to hear Gwen's voice
"Ben, are you there?" she asked
"Gwen! Oh thank god you're okay" he said with relief
"yeah Ship managed to catch us before we hit the ground" Kevin said
"that's my boy, so where are you now?"
"we're currently at Kevin's garage"
"are you still aliens?"
"yeah we are, we tried playing with the Ultimatrix symbols on our chests but we can't change or anything"
"let me try something, Ultimatrix; time out" Ben said and in a flash Gwen and Kevin were back to normal "hows that?"
"good we're back to normal now don't try to turn into an alien again until we figure out what's going on"
"right"
"so where are you now Ben" Kevin asked
"just a sec" Ben replied he then activated his x-ray vision and saw that the factory he was in was basically in the street, putting two and two together he figured it out "I'm in the Techadon factory down town" he said
"right we're on our way and remember don't say any of your alien names"
"okay I won't, just let me know when you get here" Ben said and communications cut out "okay buddy this is your last chance to let me go peacefully or else I'll destroy your factory" Ben said as Inspector 13 searched for him with a laser gun drawn
"and how prey tell do you intend to do that" Inspector 13 asked Ben flew down and grabbed a left and a right Techadon robot hand and put one on each hand
"like this" Ben replied and he began firing lasers in all directions as he ran throughout the factory damaging or destroying the machines that constructed the Techadon Robots.
Just as the gloves ran out of fire power the factory shook and the wall next to him bulged out a bit "warning factory under attack" the computerised voice stated as the factory kept shaking and the bulge kept getting bigger moving out of the way he used his X-ray vision and saw Gwen and Kevin standing outside next to Ship who had now turned into a huge laser and was repeatedly firing lasers at the side of the factory
"come on Ship just a bit more"
"deploy external defences" Inspector 13 ordered, Ben watched as three lasers came out of the side of the factory and zapped Ship simultaneously both turning him back to normal and stunning him, now Ben was mad.
Locking his sights on Inspector 13 he glared ferousiously at him "if the Ultimatrix was working I would turn into Four Arms and tear you to shreds, but seeing as how its not I'll just have to use my bare hands!" Ben said before the whole factory shook again only more violently. using his x-ray vision again his eyes widened at first but then he smirked before turning back to Inspector 13 "oh you are in BIG trouble now" Ben said before a random thought came into his head 'if they have my powers maybe...' he concentrated a bit and in a bright flash of light standing or rather floating in Ben's place was a deep-dark blue male-looking humanoid with bright blue flames surrounding his head in a similar fashion as Heatblast "okay now this is awesome to the max" Ben said
"warning Anodite in factory, warning factory under attack" the computerised voice stated, Ben formed a glowing light blue ball in his hand and then swung his arm sending out a wave of mana that completely obliterated a row of machines just before a huge white fist burst through the roof and smashed several unfinished Techadon Robots. Ben and Inspector 13 watched at the white hand grabbed one side of the hole it made while a large brown hand grabbed the other side and they pulled, slowly tearing the factory in half, once the hole was big enough an additional two hands joined in and with a creak and groan the whole factory was torn in two.
"Impossible" Inspector 13 muttered
"Ben are you okay!" Gwen, now as Humungousaur, asked as she peered into her half of the factory while Kevin, now as Way Big, looked into the other half
"oh I'm better than okay" Ben stated as he floated up to Gwen's face
Gwen was now shocked "you can turn into an Anodite as well!?" she asked in amazement
"well actually I think that its only because I gained your powers while you gained mine" Ben said
"so where's scrawny I'd like to get some real pay back" Kevin said as he pounded on fist into his palm, they got their answer when Inspector 13's ship disconnected from the factory and flew up in the air only to be shot down by a mana blast from Ben and a laser blast from the now recovered Ship. The four heroes watched as the ship came down and crashed somewhere on the outskirts of Bellwood
"nice shot you two" Kevin said
"Ben put your hands above your head and say Abeo Exorior while thinking about that guy" Gwen said, Ben did what Gwen said a dome of blue mana surrounded them all and they disappeared in a flash. They arrived to see Inspector 13's ship half destroyed and the being in question lying sprawled out on the ground
Ben turned back to normal and said "Ultimatrix; time out" and both Gwen and Kevin turned back to normal, Ship leapt up into Ben's arms and nuzzled it's face on his before they walked over to the dazed Inspector 13. The man in question saw the four heroes surround him "so do you still want my Ultimatrix?" Ben asked as Gwen turned into her Anodite form and Kevin pounded his fist into his hand
"no" he replied before he passed out
"didn't think so" Ben replied before he called the Plumbers to come and pick up Inspector 13.
Once the Plumber's arrived they quickly took the weapons master away and took possession of what was left of his ship "well now that ugly has been taken care of the only problem we have now is with your Ultimatrix" Kevin stated, without a second thought Ship fused with Ben's arm and after a few seconds two beams shot out of Ben's arm and zapped the Ultimatrix symbols on Gwen and Kevin's chests making them disappear before Ship demerged with Ben's arm, this was immediately followed by pats and praised from Ben and his friends before the three heroes went their separate ways and continued to enjoy what was left of their day.
Later
Ben had found out that when Ship had fixed the Ultimatrix it had also reset the master control, but Ben didn't mind in the least. It was now night time and Ben was getting ready for bed, as he was about to turn off the light a thought about the events that had happened earlier in the day came to him "I wonder" he thought, he then tried concentrating like before but nothing happened he tried again but still nothing happened "darn I must have only had that ability when the Ultimatrix was busted" he said as he turned off the light and headed for bed, but just as he was about to get in he decided to try one more, he concentrated as hard as he could and if someone had been walking by the Tennyson house hold they would have seen a blue glow coming from Ben's room.
