"You guess know the plan?" Ben said, looking at the alien forms on the Ultimatrix.

"Yeah," Kevin said as he touched the concrete, coating himself with the same matter. "Go in, find Albedo, knock him out cold, and bring him back."

"And try," Gwen stressed while looking at Ben, "not to cause too much attention to ourselves."

"Come on," Ben said picking an alien, "When have I ever caused too much attention?"

Kevin looked at him, "Let's see: a month ago, two weeks ago, three days ago, and yesterday."

Ben looked at the alien hologram on the Utimatrix, "Anyway, I won't be seen once I'm ," He slammed the dial down as hard as he could. A bright, green light flashed and a green slimy alien was in Ben's place. "Goop!" screeched Ben; he looked at himself and sighed, "Aw, man! I was supposed to be Big Chill!"

Gwen snickered, "We're ready Kevin."

Kevin began to power up the projector, "Alright. Let's see what's on the other side."

"Well, What we're waiting for?" Shiori asked while preparing her katana, Nitto. "Let's go!"

"Yes, to the other dimension we go!" Shiki said.


"Albedo?" Rex said puzzled. "Who are you supposed to be? Van Kleiss' new lost boy?" Rex looked at the gold chest piece on him. "Or are you just a wannabe?" he smirked.

Albedo grinned, "Heh, he was right. You are cocky just like someone I know."

"Oh, yeah?" Rex manifested two giant axes. "Did Kleiss tell you how badly I beat him?"

"He mentioned something like that. Luckily, he gave me something to test out on you." A red light glowed from the center of Albedo's chest piece. Rex saw Albedo's hands and knees began to shake, and his veins began to show. Finally, his hands and legs took the form of wolf claws.

"Okay," Rex shuddered, "That was creepy."

"It's called the E.V.O. Shape," Albedo huffed, with a sinister grin. "It's a prototype, but let me see how it works on you!" Albedo charged Rex at incredible speed. Rex swung his Battle Axes at him, but missed as Albedo jumped over them. Albedo fell towards Rex and began to claw is Battle Axes.

Rex pushed Albedo off and swung once more at him. Albedo's hands turned back to normal. "Let's try this!" he said as giant bat-like wings sprouted out of his back.

"Oh, you wanna be difficult huh?" Rex put away the Battle Axes and created the Slam Cannon on his arm. The giant cannon grabbed a chunk of concrete off the street and loaded. As Albedo landed, Rex took aim, "Dodge this!" he shouted.

Suddenly, a giant purple-black sphere began to appear out of thin air. Both Rex and Albedo looked as the sphere shot lighting. "Doc," Rex said into his communicator, hiding his fear, "Are you getting this?"

"Yes," she said. "The energy is massive. I don't-," Rex only heard static after that.

"What's going on?" Rex shouted at Albedo. Before he could answer, lighting shot towards Rex, causing him to shoot at a gas station close by. Right there, a giant explosion filled the air with gray smoke.


As Ben, Gwen, Kevin, Shiori and Shiki stepped through the portal, the smell of smoke filled their noises; the smoke blocked their vision as well.

The portal closed behind them. "We're here," Kevin said, spitting the taste of gasoline out of his mouth. "And so should Albedo."

Gwen closed her eyes, "I'm picking up some life energy here, but barley. It's almost as if everything here is a machine."

"But can you find Albedo?" Goop gurgled.

"No need to," said a voice just like Ben's. The team saw Albedo appear from the smoke that still filled the air, but with giant monster wings on his back.

"Albedo? Is that you?" the five looked at the new Albedo; he had a gold chest piece on him.

"Albedo." Shiori said with a scowl.

"There you are" Shiki said coldly.

"Tennyson. Why am I not surprise that you and your friends came."

"It was either that or here Azmuth telling me how irresponsible I am."

"Albedo, what's happened to you?" Gwen asked, still staring at the bat wings.

"Made some new friends," A red portal appeared behind him, "And it looks like you're about to as well." He stepped backwards and disappeared into the portal.

"Wait!" Goop screeched, but the portal had disappeared.

"Ben," Gwen said, "I'm picking up another life-."

As the smoke cleared up, a strange vehicle slammed into Kevin, sending him straight into the LAATC. "Bringing friends to help out?" A voice said from the vehicle. "I thought that this was supposed to be one-on-one."

"Kevin!" Shiori and Shiki called.

"Gwen, Shiori, Shiki," Ben looked at his cousin, worried about her boyfriend, Shiori and Shiki, "Go help him!" Gwen didn't hesitate as Ben told her what to do. "Alright! Who's there?"

The vehicle came back, being replaced by a boy who looked about the same age as Ben. "Don't play dumb with me!" He stopped and looked at Ben. "Yesh! You reminded me of when Bobo had the flu."

He must be helping out Albedo, Ben thought. "Who are you?" Goop asked.

The boy looked puzzled, "Me? I'm the guy who's gonna slap the ugly out of ya'!" His hands then turned into giant robot hands, and then charged at Ben.


"Bring it on!" screeched Albedo as Rex ran towards him. He punched him, but saw that it just went through him. Albedo's new slimy body wrapped around Rex's Smack Hands, squeezing them until they finally broke apart.

"Ow!" Rex said, shaking his hands in pain. "Now you're gonna get it!" Rex created a mechanical whip-arm and a generator on his back. The whip had a hit, but had no effect.

"You can't hurt me!" Albedo screeched, almost as if he was mocking Rex.

"You're right. But the electricity can!" Rex charged the Blast Caster and slammed it into Albedo, making him shrieked in pain be the shock. Albedo fell down to the ground. "And stay down."

Rex then saw Six, Yumi and Kenji coming at his side. "What did I miss?"

"Two what might be E.V.O.s are over at the LAATC. I got Albedo." Six raised his eyebrow. "I'll tell you later."

As Six ran towards the LAATC, a green flash caught Rex's eye. He looked and saw that Albedo's slime form had been switched for a creature that looked like it had been made of diamonds. "Diamondhead!" shouted the creature. His hand grew into a giant sword.

"Diamond huh? Well let me cut you down to size!" Rex brought out his Big Fat Sword. "En grande!" The two charged at each other, making sparks fly as they clashed arm-and-arm

Meanwhile, Six, Yumi and Kenji walked up to the four teens. Two of them were two girls and a guy who were checking the other teen who was a male. "Are you four okay?" He asked the teens, but not dropping his guard around them.

"We are," said the girl. "Where's Ben? Is he okay?"

"Who?"

"He's was fighting off some weird robot." Six looked over to where Rex was at.


"Had enough?" Diamondhead strained, locking blades with the guy helping Albedo. Finally, they broke free and jumped back from each other.

"Just getting started," said the boy. His hands then turned into what looked like nunchucks. Ben slammed the Ultimatrix symbol. "Swampfire!" He created fire in is hands and shot it towards the boy. He blocked it with the machines and ran towards Swampfire.

Swampfire grabbed the robot-boy's right nunchuck, lifted him up and slammed him into the ground. Before Swampfire could attack, the boy's hands turned into two giant robot fists.

The two boys roared at each other, ready to strike, but then was stopped by a pink shield separating them.
