Chapter 17: FRAMED?!

Today is the day Kevin returned to make a crook out of me, and other things. It all started when we were in a line waiting for one of Ben's videogames.

Kyle: "What exactly about this makes it worth it to wait in the HOT sun!?"

Ben: "It's Sumo Slammers 2.1! No you can change your costumes in the middle of a fight, and there's a better storyline to go through!"

Gwen: "Yeah. Real worth it, Ben."

Ben: "I'm glad you think so, doofus cousin."

Kyle: "Why can't we just all go somewhere else while you get your game?"

Ben: "Like Grandpa said, someone needs to keep an eye on me."

Kyle: "In that case, Gwen, Max, you two go to that bookstore nearby or something. I'll stay with Ben."

Max: "Best idea I've heard all day!" Gwen and Max started to leave the line, then Gwen winked at me, and I waved to her.

Later… It had all started to go down.

Gwen: "Let's see if they both haven't melted in the heat yet." They headed back towards the game store, and then saw Fourarms burst through a wall.

Gwen: "What the heck?"

Max: "Kyle? What's going on? Where's Ben?"

Fourarms: "I don't care!" Fourarms was about to punch Max when he got shot in the side by a laser cannon. Then, Ghostfreak came out of the rubble, and went Wildmutt, and charged at the cop that shot him. He was clobbered, then went XLR8, and ran around the cop cars near him, creating a tornado that lifted them off. He then went Heatblast, and shot each car down.

Officer: "We need back-up ASAP! Alien shape-shifter on the loose! Immediate back-up! Now!" Heatblast walked right up to the officer, and burned his radio transmitter.

Officer: "What the hell are you?"

Heatblast: "Your worst nightmare!" The officer was then burned alive.

Gwen: "Kyle! Quit it, Now!" I'll fight you myself if I have to!" Heatblast turned to her, and made a 'bring it on' gesture with his fingers.

Gwen: "Maybe if you were Wildmutt, I'd be, um, more willing…"

Heatblast: "Coward!" He threw a fireball at her, which she dodged, then Max brought out a weird looking gun, and shot at Heatblast, hitting him. He then transformed into Diamondhead, and shot diamond shards at Max. Max jumped aside, then he got hit by a kick to the face from XLR8.

Gwen: "Grandpa!"

Max: "He's too powerful for us like this!"

XLR8: "Yeah. Now to finish this off!" He went Fourarms one more time, and charged, but then, a laser hit him from a guy in a lot of gear.

Guy: "You okay?"

Max: "For now."

Gwen: "Grandpa, we have to get out of here."

Max: "As soon as we get there, I'll rest." When they got back to the RV, though, they saw I was taking a nap, and Ben was playing his game. Gwen grabbed me, and shook me awake.

Gwen: "KYLE! This is the biggest stunt you've pulled yet!"

Kyle; "What ARE you talking about?"

Gwen: "You attacked me and Grandpa as Fourarms! And you bruised him as XLR8!" Max showed me the mark left after he got kicked.

Kyle: "Whoa whoa whoa! I think I'd remember if I hit Max like that!"

Ben: "I would, too, Gwen."

Gwen: "And where were you when that happened, Benjamin Tennyson?!"

Ben: "Lighten up, dweeb. What exactly are you talking about?" Gwen turned on the TV, and showed the whole battle scene that happened there.

Kyle: "It had to be Kayla! There's no other explanation!"

Max: "If it was Kayla, it would have to be female versions of all those aliens."

Kyle: "Well, someone's impersonating me!"

Gwen: "Who? Only you and Kayla have an Omnitrix. No one else."

Ben: "Kyle?"

Kyle: "I'll find this impersonator, and prove my innocence!" I became Big Chill, then flew out of the RV.

Max; "We'd better follow him." I flew around as Big Chill for a while, then found a Fourarms guy on top of a building.

Big Chill: "The impersonator!" I went XLR8, and landed on the roof behind him.

Fourarms Dude: "Hey, Kyle. I was wondering when you'd catch on."

XLR8: "What is going on? What do you have to gain from impersonating me?"

Fourarms Dude: "Revenge!" He charged at me, then while I prepped for combat, he went Stinkfly, and flew up above me.

Stinkfly Dude: "But you have to follow me first!" He then went Ghostfreak, and flew towards a building. I went Ghostfreak, too, then started chasing after him. We stopped at the U.S. mint, where I also found the RV outside. He went Heatblast, then started ransacking the place, scaring off some government people.

Gwen: "See, I told you he turned rogue on us!"

Heatblast dude: "Hey, annoying brat! Wanna have that match?" He went Wildmutt.

Gwen: "Yes, I do!" She charged right for him, then right before he slashed at her, I grabbed her as XLR8, and zoomed across the floor, skidding to a stop.

Gwen: "Kyle?"

XLR8: "Yes?"

Gwen: "If you're not the crook, then who's he?"

XLR8: "I don't know right this moment, but he somehow has an Omnitrix of his own, as well. I'll finish him off myself!" Ben, Gwen, and Max made sure to clear the place out. I went Fourarms, and charged right at him, and he went Fourarms, too, and we collided into each other.

Fourarms Dude: "Glad you could fight me face to face, Kyle. It's been a while, man!"

Fourarms: "What are you talking about?" I went Spitter, then blew him off of me, then I went Buzzshock, but when I tried to shcok him, he absorbed the charge.

Buzzshock: "What are you?"

Fourarms: "No one." He went Heatblast, and shot fire at me, while I went Heatblast myself, then absorbed the fire, then went Diamondhead, and tried to imprison him in a diamond cage. He phased through as Ghostfreak, then went Heatblast again, and shot fire at me. I was feeling a bit weakened, so I went Cannonbolt, then rolled up, and charged right into him.

Heatblast Dude: "It seems the watch gave you a lot more tricks then from our last battle, Kyle." He went Diamondhead, and tried to imprison me, but I busted out as Fourarms, then jumped at him, while He went Stinkfly, and dodged the attack, then shot restraining goop down. I went Chromastone, then blasted my way out, and shot a laser at him. He dodged it. I then went Eye Guy, and merged three of the eyes on my right shoulder, then shot a freeze ray at him. He got caught, but burned out as Heatblast, then shot a flamethrower, while I went Arcticguana, and breathed ice at him. It was a deadlock, and I went Big Chill then phased underground, and came up behind him, but he knew I'd do that, then shot fire, making me change to a solid state again.

Heatblast Dude: "But I guess having more aliens makes you want to be more flashy, eh?"

Big Chill: "This will be over in a second." I breathed my coldest ice at him, and even as Heatblast, he couldn't break out. I then went Fourarms, and lifted him up, but he phased out as Ghostfreak, then socked me, and went Fourarms himself, and punched me even harder. I then went Swampfire, and he punched right through my gut.

Fourarms Dude: "Gotcha!"

Swampfire: "No you don't!" I socked him on both sides of his head then fired a flamethrower at him, causing himself to be blown back quite a few inches. He went XLR8, and rushed at me, but I went Jetray, flew up, and shot at him with eye beams, stopping him in his tracks. I then went Wildvine, and hurled seed pods at him, and he was sent flying even further. He went Wildmutt, turned back around a pole, then launched himself at me, but I went Cannonbolt, charged at him, and knocked him out of his ball form, then I went Humongousaur, and slammed him with both of my legs into the ground. But when I looked again, he was gone. I knew he had to be Ghostfreak, so I went Big Chill, then punched him when he tried to ambush me from behind.

Ghostfreak Dude: "Impossible! You can't be this strong!"

Big Chill: "I can." I then started to activate my ice breath to freeze him down, but he went Heatblast, and shot at me with a flamethrower, blasting me against a wall, making me lose nearly all consciousness.

Big Chill: "Who are you?"

Heatblast dude: "You mean you haven't figured it out yet?" He started shrinking down into a smaller form, then became human. It was someone I recognized.

Big Chill: "I should have known! Kevin!"

Kevin: "It took you this long to figure me out huh? And you call yourself a hero."

Big Chill: "Why would you attack me and try to frame me like this?"

Kevin: "Remember, back at the subway station?"

Big Chill: "Yes, but…"

Kevin: "I'm going to make sure you pay for being a traitor! And I already have!"

Big Chill (While getting up): "What do I have to do with that? All I wanted was for people not to get hurt!"

Kevin: "And you made us lose the biggest score of my life! I could have been rich! Gotten myself out of that hole in New York! I could have had nearly anything I could want! But you ruined it for me!"

Big Chill: "It was for the best, Kevin." He transformed into Heatblast again.

Heatblast Kevin: "Oh yeah?" Well, I'm gonna make sure you don't get back up!" I went Fourarms, charged through his flamethrower, then punched him, then went Spidermonkey, and tried to lasso him down. He burned out of it. He went normal again, then grabbed me, trying to drain more Omnitrix energy.

Spidermonkey: "What are you doing?!"

Kevin: "Steal the rest of your forms, and have them for myself!" I went Buzzshock, then started absorbing back from him.

Buzzshock: "I don't think so!" Eventually, after a while of trying to drain each other's energy, we shocked each other off.

Buzzshock: "And I still have my powers!" He went XLR8

XLR8 Kevin: "Seeya!" He zoomed out of a hole he made. I then went XLR8, too, and chased after him. We started going after each other, then he went Upgrade, and merged with a trailer system, and zoomed off on it, and when I landed on it, he punched me off, and I landed on the ground. I then reverted to normal, because the RV caught back up with me.

Kyle: "Guys, the impersonator is Kevin! He wants to frame me!"

Gwen: "We got that much! Now go Upgrade and catch up with him!" I did just that, and drove right up next to Kevin.

Upgrade Kevin: "Hey, Kyle! Hitched yourself a ride, too eh?"

Upgrade: "Yeah!" I got out my arm, and punched him. He shot at me, and I grew a spike on my arm, then struck him with it.

Upgrade Kevin: "OUCH!" He was sent veering towards the side, then he got himself back together, and rammed me. I jumped right off of the RV, then transformed into Fourarms, and broke through the top of the RV.

Upgrade Kevin: "OWWW!!! You'll pay for that, dweeb!" He threw a chair at me, and I grabbed it, then broke it on the floor.

Upgrade Kevin: "Ow!" I went Upgrade again, and merged with the trailer, forcing us both off of it.

Upgrade Kevin: "Not a bad plan freak!" He went Heatblast, and shot at me. I dropped under it, then transformed into Goop, and shot some slime at him, and I actually had made it acid, and he burned away a bit, then went Diamondhead, and charged at me again, but I wrapped myself around him. He tried Fourarms, but I still held on to him, and then he went Ghostfreak, making me let go of him, and he punched the UFO, forcing me to revert to normal, and I skidded along the road a few inches. He went normal then grabbed the watch again, but I went Big Chill, then phased right through him, freezing him solid. I then went solid after it.

Big Chill: "That was fast. Why didn't I just do that before?" I then got blasted in the back, and saw Heatblast, and he threw another fireball at me, then I went Chromastone, charged through his fireballs, and slammed him straight into the air. He launched himself back down at me, then went Fourarms, and I went Cannonboilt, and brought my armor plates up to absorb the impact, and I got socked out of the smoke, and he charged at me, then I went kyVilgax, and absorbed my spikes, making myself buff, and charged right at him, jumped, and slammed him right into the ground. The RV pulled up, and they saw me pounding Kevin into the ground. He went Ghostfreak, and phased through the ground, and I went Big Chill and turned intangible myself, and I anticpated an attack from behind, but he wasn't there, and then he put both of his hands through my head, trying to knock me unconscious with a telepathic mind attack.

Ghostfreak Kevin: "I got you now, numbnut!" I went Goop, and oozed out of his grip, then went Ghostfreak, turned intangible, and punched him. We both turned solid, and I went Swampfire, and he went Heatblast, and we shot flamethrowers at each other, hoping to overheat the other down. I started overheating, and I went Chromastone, charged through the flamethrower, and slammed him. He went Diaomdhead, and shot diamond shards, and they had bounced off of me, while I slammed him into the ground again, then he went Wildmutt, and forced me off of him. I went Spidermonkey, and shot a web at him, while he jumped over it, then slashed me with his claws. Then I went Goop, and wrapped around him, and he went Upgrade, and oozed out of my grip, while he blasted my UFO, reverting me to normal. He went normal, and charged at me again, while I went Brainstorm, and shot at him with an electric blast.

Brainstorm: "While that keeps him busy, I will…" He went Fourarms, and punched me, but thankfully, I used a force shield to reduce the landing impact. I then went Humongousaur, and charged right at him, and slammed him right into the ground, and we got into a huge grapple.

Humongousaur: "Give it up, Kevin! I have the advantage!"

Fourarms Kevin: "Do you now?" He pushed harder, and I pushed harder, until we both finally jumped away, and I went Echo Echo, and he went Stinkfly, and tried to tackle me, while I multiplied into 5, while dodging him, and I screamed at him, making him fall to the ground. He then shot goop at all five of me, blinding us, and he went XLR8, and ran off.

Echo 1: "He blinded all of us!"

Echo 2: "Someone help!" We merged into one again, then went Eye Guy, and washed the goop off of the top of my head.

Eye Guy: "Much better."

Gwen: "Are you two done yet?" I reverted to normal.

Kyle: "Yeah. I'm good for awhile." We had gone into the RV so I could rest up for the next big attack.

Gwen: "Turns out, this wasn't Kevin's only attack. He's used Ripjaws in Chicago, Wildmutt in Tallahassee, Ghostfreak in Kalamazoo…"

Kyle: "He does the crime, and I do the time."

Ben: "Exactly!"

Max: "We have to stop him! Otherwise, he'll keep doing things like this under your name."

Kyle: "And only I can do that if I want to! No one takes my name, and says I did it, without MY permission!"

Gwen: "Um, hello?!"

Kyle: "Sorry." We continued going after him, and found him as Diamondhead later that night attacking a bridge.

Diamondhead Kevin: "Oh yeah! Being a villain rocks!"

Gwen: "Kyle? Who's it gonna be? Jetray? Fourarms? Chromastone?"

Kyle: "Nope." I transformed into Humngousaur, and grew to sixty feet tall.

Diamondhead Kevin: "What the?" I grabbed him, and slammed him into the bridge's ground, and continued in wailing on him. I eventually felt nothing, and was looking around for him. He was Ghostfreak, flying along my arm, then went in my ear, and became Grey Matter, and ran along until he found my brain, and started giving it wet willies.

Humongousaur: "What the… ARGH!!! I'm having a bad headache up here!" I changed into Upchuck, and Grey Matter Kevin's head was sticking out of my ear. So I pulled him out, put him under me, then tried to body slam him,, but he went Fourams, grabbed me, and threw me, but I then became Heatblast, and launched myself into him, then went Humongousaur again, and grew sixty feet tall, then slammed on him with one hand, which he caught, and I slammed him with both hands, then continued to wail on him, until I picked him up, and slammed him one last time into the dirt. I then went Arcticguana, and breathed ice at him, but he went Heatblast, and shot himself right into me, and I went Chromastone, and charged at him, but he jumped, and dropped a large fireball on me. I went flying, and he went Diamondhead, and shot diamond shards at me, then I went Upchuck, ate up each shard, and blasted them back at him as exploding loogies. He went flying, then went Heatblast, and launched himself at me again, while I went Fourarms, and slammed him right into the ground. Then he went Stinkfly, and tackled me, and tried to come back for another tackle, when I went Jetray, and shot him into the ground. He tried hard to get up but was slammed by a Cannonbolt body slam, reverting him to normal.

Kevin: "There's just no way…"

Cannonbolt: "Sorry, but this is it, Kev. Time to turn yourself in."

A voice: "I'll take it from here. Lieutenant Steel, Of SACT."

Cannonbolt: "What?"

Lieutenant Steel: "Special Alien Containment Team. We'll take this freak into custody right now." They went to cuff him, but when he tried to transform again, he went into Monster Kevin on us.

Kevin 11: "Now I'm… a freak for… GRRR…" He tried transforming.

Kevin 11: "I can't transform again! You! It's all your fault!" He blew the cuffs off, then charged at me. I went Humongousaur again, but was tackled, and I was falling down, until I went Wildvine to reel myself back up, and he shot a flamethrower at me. I went Heatblast to absorb it, and I went Humongousaur again, but he tackled me before I could grow.

Kevin 11: "Sorry, freak. I'm not going to let you grow again!"

Steel: "But I'll stop you!" He fired from a bazooka, knocking Kevin into the water. I changed to Jetray, about to go in, but he grabbed my shoulder, and shook his head. I nodded, and reverted to normal.

Steel: "You'll get him later, if he's not dead now."

Kyle: "Something tells me he isn't." I went back to the RV, and we continued off.

Ben: "So, did you beat Kevin?"

Kyle: "I want to think so, but… I really don't know."

Gwen: "At least he's out of our hair for a while."

Kyle; "Yeah. At least."

The end. What will happen later?
