The Ultimate Battle
Psyphon was stressed out to the max, since the demise of his master Vilgax his empire had started crumbling dramatically and a lot of planets had started to declare war on Vilgaxia, sure the troops were fully capable fighters and could easily wipe out an army, but without a true leader they could hardly hold their own. Psyphon had gotten Dr. Psychobos as well as the smartest beings on Vilgaxia to search for a way to bring their master back due to them not having any part of his original body left to regenerate him from. After days of searching databases and any conventional or unconventional things Dr. Psychobos found something that could have been their ticket to reviving their master "Psyphon after days of searching I believe I've found a way to possibly revive our master, however it is a bit questionable, and I use the term loosely"
"right now I'm willing to listen to anything"
"there is a very old legend about a powerful inter-dimensional being that went by the name Diagon, he was said to have the power to do anything from wiping out all life to resurrecting all life, he was banished back to his dimension after having his heart cut out by a powerful warrior, but should his heart be freed from the sword that cut it out he shale be freed and allowed to come back to this dimension"
"so you think that if we free this Diagon's heart then he could revive our master?"
"indeed"
Psyphon shrugged "worth a shot, so does it say where his heart is located"
"no all it says is that a cult on Earth called the Flame Keeper's Circle put the heart in a temple that never stays in one place twice"
"well then warm up the ship, we're headed to Earth"
2 weeks later
Ben and Ship were currently at plumber base alongside Kevin and Gwen listening to Max talk about a recent report he had received involving Psyphon "so Psyphon has joined a cult on Earth?" Ben asked, trying to get his head around that piece of information
"yes he has allegedly joined a cult known as the Flame Keeper's Circle, they apparently worship the an alien known as Diagon who according to them visited Earth at the dawn of mankind to bring knowledge of fire and promised to return to bring Earth to a Utopia" Max explained
"well that's another cult to add to the coo coo list" Kevin said
"are there any records of an alien going by that name?" Gwen asked
"not in any of our data bases"
"there's got to be a reason as to why he would even come here" Ben stated
"I say we pay him a little visit and make him squeal" Kevin stated pounding a fist into his palm
"best idea I've heard all day" Ben said as he activated his teleporter, Gwen and Kevin grabbed onto his vest before he said "Psyphon" and in a flash they saw that they were now standing in front of Psyphon who had a huge group of people ether wearing armour or robes "well, well, well Psyphon my old friend and what exactly are you up to hmm?" Ben asked with a cheeky grin
"B-Ben T-Tennyson what are you d-doing here?" he asked
"I could ask you the same thing"
"Psyphon, do you know these people?" a man behind him wearing a robe asked
"yes they're here to prevent us from bringing back our master Diagon" he lied
"oh that would be the biggest load of-"
"stop them!" the man called out and to the four heroes surprise the men behind Psyphon disappeared
"what the?" Kevin said before two of them reappeared behind him and punched him in the back
"Kevin!" Gwen and Ben said in union before they were both sucker punched in the face
"okay no more miss nice girl" Gwen said as she changed into her Anodite form and could all see them clearly now "they're moving in and out of dimensions" Gwen stated
"open wide Tennyson" Kevin said before he absorbed Ben's teeth
"I know just the guy for this situation, Eye Guy!" Ben called out and in a flash he turned into Eye Guy "gotta love the master control" Eye Guy stated before he zapped one of the warriors behind him, they tried hitting Kevin but all they succeeded in doing hurting themselves on Kevin's Duranite body and Gwen kept firing balls of mana in random directions making the warriors appear with every blast. Ship on the other hand had taken to going after Psyphon who had continued going up the hill to a large shimmering object at the top, turning into a laser it shot Psyphon and the robed man in the backs knocking them down Ship then leapt over the two and landed in front of them growling.
Groaning in pain the two of them stood up "Psyphon what is that thing?" the robed man asked
"that Edwards would be a parasite, fry it" Psyphon replied
"as you command" he then made a glowing yellow ball of energy and fired it at Ship who dodged the attack, it then turned into a laser again and shot at Edwards but slipped into another dimension avoiding the attack.
While Ship fought Edwards Psyphon had taken to running up the hill and quickly arrived in what looked like a huge shrine that had a huge golden heart with a sword through it at the very back of the shrine "finally my master shall return" he said as he made his way over to the sword in the heart.
When he arrived at the pedestal where the sword in the heart was located he began to reach for it when a firm hand grabbed his shoulder tightly he was then spun around and punched in the face. He stumbled back in a daze while he heard someone speaking "I did not travel all of this way just to have some creature from another world get his grubby hands on my weapon" Psyphon cleared his head and saw a very old looking man
"who are you?" he asked
"I am sir George and I have come to reclaim my weapon and put an end to Diagon once and for all" Sir George stated and he reached for the weapon only for Psyphon to blast him back with an energy attack
"you see George I have different plans for that sword" Psyphon stated before he finally grabbed the sword.
Psyphon felt an incredible amount of power serge throughout his entire body, he could feel his strength increasing substantially as well as all of his senses increasing, there was a bright flash of light and when it cleared Psyphon could see that he was now wearing armour of some sort "this power is absolutely amazing, with it I shall be able to revive Vilgax easily"
"what?" a voice said turning around he saw Edwards "you lied to us, you're not a messenger from Diagon"
"well, well it seems that the head of the organisation finally got smart" Psyphon said aiming the sword at Edwards "I'm going to use this power to bring back my true master" and a beam shot out that Pierced right through Edwards chest killing him instantly.
Ben and his team finally entered the shrine having dealt with over a hundred Flame Keepers' Circle Soldiers "well that was fun" Ben said before he laid his eyes on Psyphon "what's with the armour and the sword?" he asked
'maybe I should get a little payback for what he did to me the last time I was here' Psyphon thought to himself "why don't I show you Tennyson" Psyphon then swung the sword and a wave of blue energy came out of the sword Ben and Kevin braced themselves while Gwen put up her hand and the wave passed her, the wave struck Ben and Kevin making them skid back while Gwen just frowned wondering if she should change back into her Anodite form again
"well that was new" Gwen said before she started to get a massive headache.
Ben scowled at this "okay Psyphon lets see how you like Fasttrack" he then turned into Fasttrack and shot forward towards Psyphon only to be frozen in place as a pink aura surrounded him "what the? I can't move" he said before Gwen now with glowing green eyes floated past him, Psyphon raised the sword but Gwen merely raised her hand in a halting motion
"relax mortal I do not mean you any harm I know about your true objective and I can resurrect your master fully if you do something for me" Gwen said in a demonic voice
"and what may I ask would that be?" Psyphon asked, guessing that another being was communicating through her
"break the seal" she replied as she held up a glowing green ball of energy that showed the cracked seal the forever knights had been messing with a few weeks ago
"so all I have to do is break that seal and you'll resurrect my master Vilgax?" Psyphon asked
"that is correct"
then as if knowing exactly what to do Psyphon swung the sword vertically making a large glowing gap in the air, he then turned to Ben "next time Tennyson you'll be up against my masters full power" Psyphon said and he stepped into the gap with it closing up behind him.
Gwen then fell to her knee's and Fasttrack found the ability to move again he was then at her side before turning back to normal "Gwen are you okay what happened?" Ben asked
"Diagon happened" another voice said Ben looked up and saw a very old looking man "I take it she was temporarily possessed by a Lacubra?" he asked
"yeah she was how do you know that?" Ben asked as Kevin and Ship arrived
"I fought Diagon myself many years ago so I know all of his tricks"
"and you would be?" Kevin asked
"I am Sir George, the original Forever Knight, but time is of the essence we must get to that seal before that vile creature frees Diagon" George replied "unfortunately once we get there we shall be on our own as I have no way to contact my knights and get them there on time"
"it's okay we should be more than enough" Ben said casually with a cheeky grin "everyone grab on to me" Ben said, as he activated his teleporter everyone grabbed onto him "Psyphon" he said and in a flash they found themselves in the cave where the cracked seal was and saw Psyphon repeatedly blasting it making the crack bigger and bigger
"stop you fool you'll doom us all" George said
"as long as my master is revived I don't care" Psyphon stated Gwen then turned into her Anodite form again and blasted Psyphon away from the seal just as it almost split in half "you miserable brat" Psyphon said before he began spinning the sword around and made a whirlwind that knocked everyone off of their feet as they flew back he began rapidly swinging the sword back and forth sending out multiple waves of energy that struck the three heroes while they were flying through the air. Unfortunately for Psyphon he hadn't noticed Ship sneak up beside him and transform into a huge laser cannon which rapidly charged up Psyphon saw something bright in the corner of his eye he turned around and his eyes widened as he was shot by the huge laser and went crashing into the cave wall. Using the sword to steady himself as he got up he saw Ben and his friends getting ready to attack, standing up properly Psyphon called out "Diagon, this sword contains your heart and thus the rest of your power take it and resurrect my master!" he then threw the sword with his enhanced strength. Everyone watched as the sword flew over them and pierced deep inside the crack breaking the seal, everyone watched as the cave wall around the seal began to crack
"yes, finally I have my full power once again!" a demonic voice said as chunks of rock fell revealing what looked like another world behind it once the last of the rock fell the seal began to crack all over with a bright yellow light shining through the cracks.
As the light got brighter, waves of light started to emit from the seal "what's happening Gwen?" Kevin asked
"I don't know" Gwen replied as the waves washed over them Ben got a tiny bit of a headache but other than that nothing else. The waves spread all over the Earth turning every human into a Flame Keeper's Circle warrior or as they were also known as Esoterica, once the waves stopped the light coming from the seal disappeared before the seal itself fell to pieces everyone held their breath, but nothing happened.
"well that was a bit anti-climatic" Ben said, he then saw George walk over to the sword sticking out from the rock
"Ascalon is mine once again" he said as he picked it up, they all watched as the sword began to glow brightly followed by armour similar to what Psyphon had been wearing just moments ago spreading over his body. Once he was fully armoured he turned to the four heroes showing that he had also regained his youth as well "it's time to finish this once and for all" he said
"I agree" the same demonic voice boomed out seeing no one around they all exited the cave and came to a heart stopping sight floating above them was a beast of gargantuan proportions
"I don't believe it" Ben uttered
"Diagon" George muttered
"Diagon in return for freeing you, you must now revive my master Vilgax" Psyphon ordered
"no" a beam then shot out of his left eye and disintegrated Psyphon
"awe I wanted to do that" Ben said, everyone looked at him "I'm not being cute I seriously wanted to kill him"
"in any case we have bigger problems right now" George stated
"he's right, so lets try a little Eatle" Ben said and in a flash he turned into Eatle
"have at thee" George said and he swung the sword several times, Diagon groaned in pain as several glowing white lines appeared on him, but they soon disappeared as he healed himself
"you insignificant insect, you dare strike me!"
"I shall do more than just strike you foul beast" he then spun the sword around creating a twister that burrowed a deep hole between Diagon's eyes, this was followed by a triple beam attack from Gwen (now in her Anodite form), Ship, and Eatle that made the hole larger and deeper, almost piercing right through Diagon causing him to roar in pain.
George continued the assault by repeatedly making more slashes to Diagon's face "you little specs!" Diagon roared he then shot lasers out of his eyes knocking everyone, back but they all quickly recovered Diagon's eyes narrowed and suddenly Esoterica appeared from all directions "destroy these insignificant specs my minions"
"just peachy, George we'll handle these guys you just concentrate on Diagon" Eatle said
"my thoughts exactly" George replied
"guys knock out shots only" Eatle said before saying "Eye Guy" and in a flash he turned into Eye Guy, Eye Guy gave a sarcastic yawn and zapped Esoterica left, right and centre knocking them out with each zap. Thanks to her ability to see through dimensions Gwen had no trouble attacking the Esoterica, she was even able to attack them while they were in Diagon's dimension making sneak attacks virtually impossible. Kevin absorbed a piece of Duranite he had made earlier, per Ben's request, and quite frankly the Esoterica were hurting themselves on his hardened body rather than hurting him. Ship had taken to assisting George by attacking any Esoterica that came to his sight, this gave George lots of opportunities to attack Diagon and was inflicting quite a lot of damage. Eye Guy was starting to see a problem here if they all kept going at the rate they did then they would most likely lose "theres got to be a way to even the odds" he said then one of his eyes spotted George "that's it! Gwen can you teleport a group of people all here at once?" Eye Guy asked back handing an Esoterica that appeared next to him
"sure, who do you have in mind?" she asked
"first I'm going to need you to clear this whole area big time" a magenta shield then surrounded everyone as Gwen began to glow and with a bright flash of light and a thunderous boom the ground was completely flat for as far as the eye could see with hundreds of unconscious Esoterica littering the ground but more still came
"cleared enough for you?" she asked as the shields dropped
"perfect now I need you to teleport every Forever Knight here in front of George" Gwen chanted some words and in another flash of light all of the Forever Knights appeared seeming rather confused until they saw their leader
"knights I shall be brief, this is the battle you've all been preparing for, your sole enemy are these beings only, Ben Tennyson and any of his associates are not to be harmed, is that understood?" George said, the Knights all acknowledged "good now Knights attack!" the knights cheered and began attacking the Esoterica.
"you think that these minions of yours will be able to stop my plans?"
"no I don't but they may slow your plans down to a crawl" George said and he continued his assault on Diagon
"great idea Ben" Gwen said
"thanks, Ultimatrix; time out" Eye guy said and in a flash he was back to Ben "but I've still got a few more people to join the fight (he activated his teleporter) Captain Dagger" he said and in a flash he was gone leaving a stunned Gwen and Kevin.
"Gwen help George and Ship I'll be fine" Kevin said as an Esoterica punched him in the face not even flinching Gwen nodded and floated over to George and ship before firing a massive ball of mana at Diagon that took a good chunk out of one of Diagon's tentacles before it healed. Diagon then fired two beams from his eyes at the three heroes, both Gwen and George just barely able to deflect them
"you may wield the most powerful weapon on this planet and you may be the most powerful being on this planet but compared to my power you both are still nothing" Diagon stated before he began rapidly firing lasers at them forcing Gwen, George, and Ship to make shield's over themselves.
"I seriously hope that guy will be willing to help us" Gwen said before she got an idea "Ship, George turn your shields into energy beams straight at Diagon!" she called out, willing to try anything Ship, George and Gwen's shields began to glow brighter before they launched straight at Diagon. The three beams combined together to make one huge one, Diagon put a tentacle up to block the beam of mana and energy only to have it obliterate the defending tentacle Diagon roared in pain at the loss of his appendage
"attack!" George yelled and he continued slashing at Diagon while Gwen and Ship rapidly fired blasts at both the slash's and severed appendage. Gwen and Ship kept attacking until George finally stopped
"a valiant effort but unfortunately you all still fail" Diagon stated as he regenerated all of the damage he had sustained from their assault
"George maybe you should take a breather" Gwen said
"I shall not rest until Diagon is dead" George stated
"then we'll assist you to the end"
"your determination is to be admired young lady"
"thanks" Gwen said with a smile before turning back to Diagon.
Meanwhile
Kevin was standing around a massive heap of unconscious Esoterica "what is taking Ben so long" he asked as he watched the knights fighting against the Esoterica quite well, in a flash of light Ben reappeared with the Dagger pirates as well as, surprisingly, the rest of the Space Demon's "okay everyone your only target are the ones wearing the yellow masks" Ben stated as more Esoterica appeared
"ye erd Bottomless Benny boy's attack!" Captain Dagger shouted making his crew cheer and began to fight
"Ben you got the rest of the Space Demons to help!" Kevin exclaimed
"yeah they were having a meeting when I arrived" Ben replied
"so that's the legendary Diagon" they both turned and saw Jián looking up at Diagon "funny I'd thought he'd be more intimidating" he said with a smirk as he flicked out two swords and disappeared.
"Hmm this is quite some powerful magic you've got here" Ben and Kevin looked and saw the Space Demon Moshu (he was a bald, lean, grey skinned, humanoid alien with pointy ears while wearing blood red Egyptian god-like clothes) kneeling down with his hand on the head of an unconscious Esoterica "but it's nothing I can't handle" he said before he stood up and stuck his right hand up in the air Ben and Kevin watched in awe as white beams of light began coming out of all of the unconscious Esoterica and collecting in a small ball in his palm, as soon as the white light stopped coming from them they were instantly turned back to normal
"awesome, keep that up Moshu" Ben said he then turned and saw Glacya (a pale purple skinned alien with long green hair, a ring of dark grey clouds around her chest and a short skirt that was also made of dark grey clouds) twirling her index finger around making a small storm cloud appear, this was followed by a huge bolt of lightning coming out and shocking a group of 30 Esoterica into unconsciousness. He then spotted Vilespa knocking out Esoterica without even trying and then his eyes landed on the Dagger Pirates having the time of their life which made Ben chuckle "well Kevin lets continue, Four Arms" Ben said and he turned into Four Arms.
Back with Gwen, Ship, and George
The three heroes were beginning to tire "did you have to work this hard the last time you fought him?" Gwen asked
"honestly no" George replied now quite winded
"hey mind if I join in?" Jián asked as he landed between George and Ship in a kneeling position while slowly pushing two swords back into their scabbards
"no in fact I think we're going to need all the help we can get" Gwen said
"good...Demon Slash!" Jián shouted followed by Diagon roaring in agony as he was almost completely split in half while two of his tentacles fell off. The three heroes were in absolute shock "hey you can ether stand there gawking or you can attack" Jián stated, Gwen snapped out of her shock and put her hands above her head and made a huge ball of mana about 30 meters in diameter before she threw it straight at the split in Diagon. Diagon tried to stop it with his lasers but the ball just absorbed them making it bigger before it went into the split and detonated resulting in a massive explosion, the aftershock from the explosion sent all of the Forever Knights and the Esoterica flying and tumbling along the ground.
"My word dat lass certainly has some spunk" Dagger said as he braced himself
"that's my girl" Kevin said proudly
"did it work?" Ben asked as everyone looked up at the huge cloud of smoke where Diagon was.
The heroes hearts fell into their stomachs as they watched the dark cloud change shape until Diagon reformed "I must admit that that was a significantly good attack however you still fail to realise that my power is exponentially greater than yours" Diagon said making Gwen start to shake, there had been enough energy in that attack to blow up a small island and yet he survived, now fully healed. Having seen what Moshu had done add to the fact Ben had only wanted them to only knock out these creeps Captain Dagger came to the conclusion that the huge beast in the sky had turned the whole populace on Earth into these fighters
"hey Moshu do ya tink yee can turn everyone on Earth back ta normal at once" Dagger asked, understanding what Dagger meant he nodded he then stuck both hands up similar to what Gwen had done just before, his eyes began to glow red and a third eye opened up on his forehead also glowing red.
Everyone looked in awe as beams of light began coming from every Esoterica in the area with them turning back to normal as soon as the light left them, all over the world Esoterica were turned back to normal with all of the light that came from them collecting into a huge ball above him "what are you doing to my minions!" Diagon yelled out he then started to come down while also morphing as it did when he.
When he landed he was now only about 3 times bigger than Way Big, a tentacle then lashed out at Moshu only to be sliced off by Jián but it quickly grew back "you're gonna have to do better than that squidface" Jián stated before George charged forward and made a vertical slash at Diagon succeeding in cutting off another one of his tentacles. As Diagon regrew the lost appendage the Forever Knight's began and the Dagger Pirates began attacking him Vilespa then jumped up and punched Diagon right between the eyes, amazingly knocking him over.
George and Jián looked at each other and nodded before they ran forward and each slashed at the downed Diagon, Captain Dagger turned his hand into a laser and repeatedly shot Diagon while Kevin decided joined the knights and pirates. Gwen began teleporting all of the unconscious people back to their homes knowing that they were in grave danger being where they were, Glacya threw both of her hands up in the air and as soon as she did two Golems made of stone burst out of the ground and began attacking Diagon as well Ben and Ship were on the sidelines per say as Ben observed the fight
"there's no way we can win like this he'll be up in a moment and will most likely decide to kill us all with one attack" he said to himself, he then turned and saw Moshu absorbing the huge ball of energy into his body until it was gone
"there everyone on this planet has been turned back to normal" he said
"thank you" Ben replied before getting serious again "you know a lot about mana right?"
"that I do"
"do you know any attacks that would be truely effective against him?"
"the only being that could beat that beast would have to be a magical being with a power equal to or greater than his power and before you ask no I am not strong enough to beat him I could give him a run for his money but he would still beat me"
"and I take it that Gwen isn't up to that level ether?"
"unfortunately correct your Anodite friend while extremely powerful for her age wouldn't stand a chance against me in a fight" they then watched as Diagon got back up while healing himself, tentacles lashed out at everyone sending them flying two tentacles shot out and smashed the Golems to pieces, locking his eyes on his main adversary George he shot a thin tentacle straight down and pierced him right through the chest while he was knocked down everyone was shocked by this turn of events, they watched as the armour he was wearing retracted and the sword fell out of his hand before he turned into dust.
There was a long silence which was broken by Diagon laughing, the knights broke out of their shock at this and began attacking in rage at their fallen leader "I have had enough of all of this nonsense; I'm putting an end to this right now!" he before he turned into a twister again and went up into the sky changing back to his first form he then began to glow red and sparks began flying over him
"HIT THE DECK!" Ben shouted which everyone did this was followed by a colossal explosion that was 10 times more powerful than the bomb that landed on Hiroshima and it destroyed any to all shields that had been made for protection. Ben opened his eyes and looked around his whole body ached he had ringing in one ear and static in the other looking down he saw that his right leg was now missing, and his other leg while still there was badly damaged and barely functioning his robotic hand was now missing and the vision in his right eye was partly staticy looking around he could see Kevin was at Gwen's side completely un harmed thanks to the Duranite form had been in when Diagon attacked. he also saw that Vilespa was still standing but just barely, everyone else was ether unable to fight or was dead due to a lot of them lying perfectly still. His eyes then landed on his number 1 pal who was back to normal and also lying still, Ben managed to crawl over to Ship rubbed his side "Ship say something please, it's me Ben" he said
"B-Ben" it said weakly before it passed out, for the first time in a long time Ben began to cry as he held his little buddy to his chest. Kevin and Gwen (who had just started to wake up herself) saw what had happened and Gwen thinking the same as Ben buried her head into Kevin's chest "it's okay Gwen I'm sure he just passed out" Kevin said as he rubbed her back.
"Hey guy's" Ben said as he struggled over to them, Kevin then let go of Gwen and went to help his struggling friend, when they got back over to Gwen, Kevin placed Ben in a sitting position and then
"so what do we do now" Kevin asked before he turned his head and saw Diagon destroying Forever Knight corpses
"besides wait for death" Vilespa said as she limped over to the group
"I'm amazed you were able to withstand that without any shielding" Gwen said
"yeah me too" she replied before she fell to her hands and knees panting
"wait, I have an idea (turns to Gwen) but it's going to cost us both a year off of our natural lives" Ben said
"I'm all for whatever plan you've got" Gwen said
"good okay first can you still change into your Anodite form?" Gwen responded by doing so "okay now I want you to hold all questions off until later" he then handed Ship to Kevin and then closed his eyes and concentrated. Gwen Kevin and Vilespa got looks of shock on their faces as Ben turned into an Anodite as well
"Ben wha gah zah" Gwen spluttered out
"questions later right now give me your hands" Gwen did what he said "now concentrate mana into your hands" he said as he laced their fingers together, Gwen complied and then both of their hands were surrounded by orbs of pink mana Ben then did the same so the orbs were now swirls of pink and blue "now the final step we have to say unidos juntos somos imparable in complete union" Gwen nodded "okay on 3"
"1...2...3 unidos juntos somos imparable!" they said in perfect sync this was followed by a bright flash of light that temporarily blinded everyone even Diagon
"gah, what is that?!" he said once everyone who had been exposed to the bright light could see again they saw that in Ben and Gwen's place was a golden humanoid surrounded by a bright yellow aura
"what the heck did you two do?!" Kevin exclaimed
"we used a special technique that's used to fuse two Anodite's together to make an Apex Anodite" the figure said in both Ben and Gwen's voices, they then raised their left hand and poked Vilespa on the forehead and in an instant she was fully healed, they then did the same to Ship making it full of energy. Ship looked at the new figure and leapt out of Kevin's arms and into their arms whale saying
"Ben"
"not quite little guy I'm a fusion of Ben and Gwen...so just call me Bwen" the newly named Bwen said and hugged Ship before handing it back to Kevin with their serious face returning. Bwen then poked both Kevin and Vilespa in the chest before turning to Diagon "I just gave you both the ability to heal anyone in an instant use the power I've given you to heal everyone" Bwen said before they flew up towards Diagon, Kevin and Vilespa looked at each other before following Bwen's orders.
Diagon's eyes were as wide as possible, he could sense the amount of power basically radiating from the new being floating in front of him "I am going to make you pay for everything you've done before I put an end to you for good" Bwen said they then thrust their right arm forward and Diagon was sent sailing back while also tumbling through the air, Bwen appeared in Diagon's path and kicked him up further into the sky. When Diagon reached the peak Bwen reappeared and gave him an axe kick between the eyes sending him straight down where he ploughed into the ground making a deep hole. Bwen reappeared on the edge of the monstrous hole and waited, but they didn't have to wait long as Diagon floated out of the hole
"why can't I heal?"
"because any damage that I inflict upon you is permanent, by the end of your punishment you're going to be begging for mercy" Bwen stated before Diagon zapped them but Bwen just stuck their hand out and gathered the laser in a ball before sending it right back at Diagon knocking him back over the hole he had made. Bwen's extended hand then began the glow brightly before they fired a massive golden mana blast that completely engulfed Diagon, when the blast stopped Bwen could see Diagon in the distance, seemingly in a lot of pain, they then snapped their fingers and an explosion erupted from where Diagon was.
"This is impossible how is it that this spec has a power vastly greater than my own"
"it's a dilemma to be sure" Bwen said now sitting on Diagon's head they then raised one arm and punched him on the head the force of which made his tentacles stick out before they went limp as well as forced him a quarter of a mile into the ground. Bwen then disappeared and reappeared at the tip of Diagon's middle face tentacle, they then grabbed it tightly and began repeatedly slamming him to the ground.
Meanwhile
Kevin, Vilespa, and everyone who had been healed so far were knocked off of their feet by a violent Earthquake "look over there!" one of the Dagger Pirates called out they looked in the direction he was pointing and Diagon in the distance repeatedly being slammed to the ground
"I cannot believe it" Kevin said
"wow Diagon's getting the snot beaten out of him" Jián said in an amused tone
"heh, you should have seen the fireworks before" Vilespa said as she healed another Dagger Pirate.
Back with Bwen
Bwen slammed Diagon to the ground a final time before they let go of the tentacle and shot forward and began rapidly kicking Diagon between the eyes while also rapidly growing in size at the same time with Diagon receiving more and more damage as Bwen got bigger and stronger. Soon Bwen was amazingly bigger than Diagon and was repeatedly stomping him deeper and deeper into the ground, when they stopped they reached into the hole and pulled out the tremendously hurt Diagon "I know that even if I completely obliterate your body you'll still exist as energy and may be able to return in some form or another so I'm going to make sure you never return" Bwen stated before they put their hand on Diagon's head and started absorbing his energy into their body
"nnnoooo" Diagon shouted as he was rapidly sucked into Bwen's hand until he was completely gone. Bwen's aura turned red for a few seconds before going back to yellow
"finally, it's over" Bwen said in relief before disappearing and reappearing back at the first battle field at their original size "I see that you were able to heal nearly everyone" Bwen stated
"yeah, the ones still down unfortunately didn't survive Diagon's attack" Kevin said, Bwen saw that a few Dagger Pirates had died in the attack as well as nearly all of the Forever Knights Bwen floated over to the 10 remaining Forever Knight's and stopped in front of them
"so what are your plan's now that you're the last of the Forever Knights?" they asked
"we shall do the only noble thing a true knight would do" one of them said as they pulled out their swords and got ready to commit suicide only to find themselves frozen in place
"instead of killing yourselves, why not put your skills to good work, I'm sure Captain Dagger wouldn't mind having 10 highly trained knights on his crew"
"aye da more da merrier as day say" Dagger said the Knights looked at each other before one walked over to Captain Dagger and kneeled before him "it will be an honour to serve you my captain" the knight said this was followed by the other knights doing the same thing
"well looks like everything's worked out" Bwen said
"yeah except you two are still fused together" Kevin added Bwen responded by splitting back into Ben and Gwen (still in their Anodite forms) who then turned back to normal with Ben's cybernetic parts being fully repaired "never mind" he added
"so, do I owe you an explanation on the Anodite thing?" Ben asked
"no while we were Bwen our minds merged as well, you can also keep the spellbook you took"
"thanks"
"hey you two, whadaya want done with this?" Jián asked while holding up George's sword by the blade
"I suggest you return it to its creator" Azmuth stated as he materialised on the ground in front of Jián, Jián shrugged and extended the sword out to Azmuth who merely touched it turning it into green energy that shot up into space.
"I have to admit that I never would have guessed that the infamous Space Demon's would have a great hand in actually saving the universe rather than ruining it" Azmuth said as he made his way over to Ben and jumped up on his cybernetic arm
"Azmuth you made that sword?" Ben questioned
"yes but that's another story for another time" he said as he pulled the Ultimatrix out of Ben's arm
"a hero of your worth doesn't deserve an inferior copy of my Omnitrix" and it disappeared in a green flash before a new one with a square face reappeared in the hole
"a new Omnitrix?"
"not a Omnitrix, thee Omnitrix, an improved version I've been working on ever since you were given the prototype 6 years ago"
"I-I don't know how to thank you"
"keep doing the right thing"
"I will Azmuth"
"good" Azmuth replied before he disappeared
"well I tink we should celebrate our victory tonight" Dagger said
"I agree" Ben said with a smile plastered on his face
"then lets go" Modhu stated and with a snap of his fingers everyone was at the bar they had been at before Ben arrived.
2 days later
It had taken Ben, Gwen, and Kevin a whole day to recover from their massive hangovers as a result of the celebration they had had with the Space Demons and the Dagger Pirates, during the celebration Gwen and Ben explained what had happened to Diagon, while they were fused as Bwen they had absorbed Diagon into their body and purified his energy, when they had split back into two beings Diagon's power had also been split between them so now while in their Anodite forms they had their strength as well as half of Diagon's as well. Ben was now in Undertown just walking around absentmindedly until he accidentally bumped into someone "oh I'm terribly sorry" he said before his eyes widened as he saw who he would describe as the most beautiful girl he had ever seen, she was defiantly alien in origin but she could easily pass off as a human. She had purple eyes and light pink skin, with two purple markings on her cheeks, pinkish-red hair and large whitish eyebrows. She was also wearing a purple jacket, with white fur collars and cuffs, pink stockings, and purple snow shoes topped off with a tiara with a diamond-shape at the top. "Hi there my names Ten Bennyson, I mean Ben Tennyson" he stumbled out with the organic part of his face going bright red
the girl giggled at this "I know who you are, my names Ester" she said as she stuck her hand out to him and he gently shook it.
