I just love the Chills so much! I can't not continue with this! Okay, in this chapter, the Chills battle against the poachers to save the runt. Meanwhile, Ben is finding renewed activity coming from Big Chill within the Omnitrix.
"Get off! Please!" The runt whimpered, trying to go intangible. 'Darn! Still can't do it!' He saw the others going intangible to escape their nets. 'Why me?'
"Let him go!" The dark winged brother howled, diving toward one of the new aliens. He didn't even pay attention to the creature's large muscles. He extended his talons and gripped hard on the shoulder blade of the animal. What kind of being was it? He was violently thrown off.
"I got this!" The eldest brother called out, taking a deep breath and exhaling. A small wisp of frozen energy drifted out before vanishing. 'I can't…Still can't…'
The white winged sister wrapped her wings around herself and tried to hide. "Don't hurt me…" She moaned softly. "Please…" She went intangible and invisible and didn't move a muscle.
The other sister spiraled in the air, carefully analyzing her opponent. '90º to the left…down…HERE!' She dived down and her foot made contact with a spot right below the creature's hipbone. The alien let out a high pitched scream before collapsing. 'Gotta remember that!' She turned to face her next opponent and let out a cry of dismay when she saw how many of these creatures there were. 'There must be at least twenty!' The eldest was being forcefully restrained.
'They can't win…' "Go intangible and get out of here!" The runt shouted.
"No one is left behind!" The eldest roared, throwing off his attackers.
"Please! There are too many! Get help and try to find me again! I'll be fine!"
"No way!" The dark winged brother snapped, digging his talons into the animal's face.
"What good is it if we're all captured?" The sister protested. "He's right! It's the best course of action."
The white winged sister shivered as she gazed at the net and cage. "We'll be back, little brother." She whispered before flying after her retreating siblings.

"Sheesh! I hate these rogues!" Kevin growled, slamming a mallet into the face of a large green lizard-like alien. Its forked tongue darted in and out of its mouth and it let out a roar which was quickly stifled by a beam of magenta energy.
"Nice try, Jaws!" Gwen shouted, wrapping the lizard in pink strands. "Hey, Ben! Why don't you finish this off?"
"Gotcha! Humongousaur is coming right up!" He slammed his hand on the watch and Big Chill flew toward the lizard with a hiss. He went intangible and froze the reptile solid.
"Good job Ben! Ben?" Gwen blinked in surprise to see Big Chill flying away. "Ben! Where are you going?" He just kept flying. "Come on, Kevin! Let's see what's up!" The two began to run on a series of mana platforms. "Do you think that this is like the last time Big Chill took control?"
"It can't be! Necrofriggians only reproduce once every sixty years."
"Well what else do you know about the species?"
"Not much, actually. All I know is that they reproduce once every sixty years, go intangible, freeze stuff, fly…"
"Well that's not much help…" They continued running. "Well whatever is going on, Ben's heading toward the same place he laid his eggs before…"
"This can't be good…maybe Big Chill is malformed or something…"
"I hope not!"
Ben landed on top of the hill of molten metal before turning back to normal. Kevin and Gwen both ran over to him. "What happened?" He looked around. "Where am I?"
"Big Chill took control and flew back here. Don't you remember? This is where you laid those eggs." Ben's face grew noticeably pale.
"I didn't do that again, did I?!" He looked around frantically for any sign of eggs.
"No. You just flew here and changed back."
"I wonder what-" He stopped and started surveying the ground. "Hey guys…doesn't something seem unusual about this place?" The others began scanning the metal surface. It was covered in scratches and scuff marks, all of which applied recently.
"There was a fight here." Kevin muttered, kneeling down. "There were humans…and some alien…multiple aliens…" He felt the ground carefully. "And…a cage sat right here…" He placed his hand on a shallow imprint in the ground.
"Kevin! That's amazing! How'd you know that?" Gwen gasped, astonished.
"Let's just say that being in the Null Void can teach you to be aware…" He stood up once more. "From what I'm seeing, we've found our poachers."
"Now all we gotta do is track them down!"
I'll start typing more as time goes on. Also, I have a PROPHET ANNOUNCEMENT!!!! You know the upcoming episode, Trade-Off? I have a prediction on what will happen. Now, we know already that Darkstar and Kevin are teaming up to find an ancient artifact that will change them to their original forms. I saw a screen shot that showed Darkstar as Mike, absorbing Gwen and Ben. Kevin was standing behind Gwen, in his normal form. I predict a battle between Kevin and Mike where he will plead Mike to leave Ben and Gwen alone. Kevin won't be strong enough, or something else will happen that will make Kevin break the artifact and change himself and Mike back to their mutant forms. He will then KICK MORNINGSTAR BUTT!!!!! And then there will be some Gwevinness. (Duh!) Anyway, that is roughly my prediction. I just wanted to put it out there in case I didn't have enough time to write a fanfic. L8er!
