Chapter 18: The Intergalactic Arena
Today, Kevin returned, like I thought he would. He had turned over the RV, knocking Ben, Gwen and Max unconscious. I had gone out to fight him, because he had forced me too. I was punched into a windmill pole as Diamondhead.
Diamondhead: "Geez, Kevin. When I knocked you off of that bridge, I thought you realized I was the better warrior."
Kevin 11: "Um, hello! I'm Kevin 11! I have all of your powers, and my own!" He shot diamond shards at me, but they all bounced off of my skin.
Diamondhead: "Too bad they're all weaker than mine!" I became XLR8, then rushed at him, and he rushed at me. Right before we collided, I went Fourarms, and we were pushing at each other.
Kevin 11: "You think Fourarms is enough to stop me?" I became Spitter, then blew him off of me, following up with Chromastone, then rushing at him. I punched him, then shot a laser beam at him, shooting him into another pole. I then jumped up above him, then went Cannonbolt, then slammed right on top of him, then smacked him off.
Kevin 11: "Nice one, Kyle. I actually felt something that time!" I went Humongousaur, then grew to 20 feet tall, and charged at him. We collided, then he was slammed into the ground head-first by my hand. He burned my hand, then flew out, and punched me in the face. I slapped him, then tail-whipped him. I charged at him again, then he shot goop at my face. I got blinded, then went Jetray, and used my eye beams to blast the goop off, then continued shooting at him. He caught up with me, then tossed me towards a pole. I became Diamondhead to absorb the attack, then I picked up the windmill blade that fell off, and threw it at Kevin, making him fall to the ground. I went Fourarms, and Kevin got up. We charged at each other, then got teleported off. When I reappeared, I was in an arena.
Fourarms: "Where the crap am I?" A robot jumped out to attack, and I went Ghostfreak and phased through its blade strike. I became Diamondhead, and punched it. It fell back, then I went Heatblast, and shot fire at it, stunning it. I went Fourarms, jumped up, slammed it into the ground, then tossed it into a wall. I went Upchuck, then spit out a loogie, killing an arm, then I went XLR8, and started running around it, pummeling it, then I stopped at the top of its head, and went Ripjaws to bite its head off. It fell to the ground, lifeless. I then reverted to normal, and the crowd cheered, while I took some bows. On Kevin's side, he was shooting fire, then jumped at it, and ripped off its left ar, and sliced it in half, making it explode.
Kevin 11: "Yeah! Don't you dare mess with me!" The wall started to go down, and I saw Kevin on one side of the wall, then transformed into Fourarms again. We were teleported right out of the arena, and reappeared in a conference room.
Kevin 11: "What is this place?"
Fourarms: "How am I supposed to know?"
Kevin 11: "Was I talking to you?"
Fourarms: "I'm the only other one here, man."
Voice: "That is where you're wrong." We turned to see a guy that looked like he had metal skin, and had one eye on his face, then 5 more eyes around the rest of his head. He wore a robe. "You both have been selected to be my new warriors."
Fourarms: "Sorry, man. I don't have time for that." We were both tagged by his robot guards, then a chain was latched to our feet.
Guy: "I am Slix Vigma. The owner of this cruiser."
Fourarms: "I can't participate, to be perfectly honest."
Kevin 11: "You afraid I'm gonna kick your butt?" I went Humongousaur, then grew to thirty feet, and stared Kevin right in his eyes.
Humongousaur: "No. I just don't have the time."
Slix: "This is not an invitation. You must stay."
Humongousaur: "What?!" Just as I was about to put on more size, both Kevin and I got shocked, and I was shrunken down to twelve feet.
Slix: "You two seem like you could be a god team."
Kevin 11: "I'm not gonna spend the rest of my time tied to this loser!!" I went Chromastone.
Chromastone: "Want to make something of it?"
Kevin 11: "Yeah!" We were shocked again, but only Kevin was hurt. I was a conductor, immune to the shock.
Slix: "If you two try to fight each other, I'll make sure you two feel the same pain. If one dies, so will the other."
Chromastone: "Unless I stay like this!" I was then shocked by the tag.
Slix: "Or the tag will hurt you." I reverted to normal.
Kyle: "We'll abide by your rules for now, Slix."
Kevin 11: "Fine. But only because I want to kick some butt." We were then teleported to a new room, with his other alien warriors.
Alien 1: "New guys, eh?"
Kyle: "Yeah. Pretty much."
Kevin 11: "But I'm the better one!"
Kyle: "No comment."
Alien 2: "Lunch will start soon. You two better find a place to sit." We took his advice.
Kevin 11: "What's lunch?"
Kyle: "I thought you just wanted to kick butt."
Kevin 11: "There's always room in my stomach for food, pukebag!"
Kyle: "Yeah. I'm just concerned about how long we'll stay here."
Alien 1: "Forever."
Kyle and Kevin 11: "What?"
Alien 2: "Don't think about going back. Slix forces us to fight for our lives as his captives."
Kyle: "I'll make sure I stop him, then. After I get some eats." We were given slop.
Alien 3: You'd better eat before Technorg comes."
Kevin 11: "Technorg?"
Alien 1: "The champion of this ship. He demands offerings every so often." I went Upchuck, and started gobbling up the slop I had. Kevin 11 put some in his mouth, then spit it out.
Kevin 11: "This crap sucks!"
Upchuck: "Not to me! *Gulp*!" We heard some footsteps, and every other alien hastily dropped own to bow. I did to, because I thought we had to. Technorg walked in, and he started eating his slop from the other alien's plates, and when he stopped at mine, he growled, and picked me up.
Technorg: "What treachery is this, Gourmand?"
Upchuck: "What?"
Technorg: "You ate more than your share!"
Upchuck: "Share? Who said anything about-" He slammed me against a wall.
Technorg: "I did. You will pay!" He felt diamond shards hit the back of his head, then wehen he turned around, a plate of slop hit his face, and I went Spitter, then blew him off me, and transformed into Fourarms immediately after.
Fourarms: "Kevin? You actually helped me?"
Kevin 11: "Of course. If you would have gotten screamed by that big mace of his, I would've died, too."
Fourarms: "Good enough." Suddenly, Technorg, Kevin, and I were transported back to the arena.
Slix's voice: "Maybe it would be best if you three had your argument out here."
Fourarms: "Much better. Let's do this!" We charged towards Technorg, but he clotheslined us, then grabbed the chain, and threw us into a wall. Kevin grabbed the chain, then whipped me out at him. I went Cannonbolt, rolled up, and prepared to hit him, but we were smacked into another wall.
Cannonbolt: "We need a new plan!" I went XLR8, then tried to run out, but was tripped by the chain.
Kevin 11: "Well, what're you waiting for?"
XLR8: "Speed's useless here." I went Swampfire, then shot a flamethrower at Technorg. He rushed right through it, then I went Echo Echo, and screamed out at him, stopping him in his tracks. I hopped on to Kevin's back, and he rushed into the fight, then punched Technorg. I jumped off, went Spidermonkey, and shot a web at Technorg's legs to hold him down. Kevin punched him again, and I flew out to kick him, then went XLR8, and barraged him with super fast kicks. He threw me off, then I went Cannonbolt, and Kevin shot a flamethrower at Technorg before he could stop me, and I rolled right into Technorg, sending him flying into the wall. The crowd cheered, and I unrolled right next to Kevin.
Cannonbolt: "See Kevin? We are a good team together."
Kevin 11; "Roll back up. I wanna play some basketball." I did, and he started dribbling me towards Technorg, then threw me into Technorg's chest. Right as he threw me again, I went Fourarms, and slammed him with all four arms to the gut. I stood back up, spun him around, and tossed him out back into the arena. Kevin shot goop at him, then hit him with diamond shards. I then went Heatblast, and charged up a fireball. Technorg was rushing at us, and I threw the fireball right when he got close, and the goop covering him exploded, sending him flying. I went Cannonbolt and rolled up again, for Kevin to shoot me at him, which he did, then I went Big Chill, and froze his big mechanical arm over, followed by going Upchuck to spit a loogie at his arm, destroying it, then Kevin punched him, and I shot a more powerful loogie at him, making him crach into the arena floor right behind Kevin, and I landed right next to him.
Upchuck: "Nice teamwork, Kevin."
Kevin 11: "Oh yeah! Who's bad!?" He was flexing his muscles to the crowd while they were cheering. Slix's hologram then appeared in front of us.
Slix: "Much better than I thought you'd do. Finish him!"
Kevin 11: "Gladly!"
Upchuck: "No!" I went Goop, then wrapped all the way around Kevin, stopping him.
Kevin 11: "Hey! Let go of me!"
Goop: "Sorry, Kevin. No one dies today!" Technorg looked at us confused, and Kevin stopped struggling, making me unwrap and get on my legs again.
Kevin 11: "Fine." I walked over to Technorg, and helped him up.
Later, I was in normal form, sitting next to Kevin at the lunch tables.
Kyle: "I'm sorry, Kev, but you can't just go kill anyone whenever you want."
Kevin 11: "Whatever. Do that again and I'll slug you!"
Kyle; "Right…" We heard footsteps heading towards us again, and saw Technorg with a newly repaired arm. He looked angry. I gave Kevin a look, he nodded, and I went Diamondhead. We both jumped out of our seats to prepare for a fight. Technorg bowed to us.
Technorg: "You have beat me in battle, and refused to kill me. I give you my life. You are my master."
Diamondhead: "Oh. Stand down, Kevin."
Kevin 11: "Hey! No one tells me what to do!" I shot diamond shards at him, and he got restrained to the wall next to us.
Kevin 11: "Hey!"
Diamondhead: "Sorry. He's a little hard to keep control of sometimes."
Technorg: "Except my dinner as an offering, my master."
Diamondhead: "No. You deserve your food. You fought bravely."
Technorg: "But…"
Diamondhead: "Go on. Eat your dinner." He proceeded to eat it. I reverted to normal.
Kyle: "Do you know a way off this junk heap?"
Technorg looked at the robot guards on duty, then looked at me.
Technorg: "We'll leave soon. You won't be able to escape unless you have a very cunning plan." I nodded.
Kyle: "Everyone, we gotta huddle!" The other aliens all came to me, and we huddled around Kevin.
Later…
I looked at the watch, then the guards. I then poked Technorg, he rubbed his shoulder against another alien, he nodded to the one next to him, then he rubbed his tail against Kevin's tail.
Kevin 11: "ARGH! I can't take this anynmore! I gotta escape!" He was throwing around fireballs and diamond sdhards to get the guards' attention, and everyone else went to assist him in braking down the guards, while one just turned against its team, and shot them down.
Kevin 11: "Hey, pukebag, where'd ya go?" I came out of the one that shot down the other bots as Grey Matter.
Grey Matter: "All it takes is some short circuiting, and a little Grey Matter."
Kevin 11: "Don't get full of yourself, dweeb. A monkey could've done what you did!"
Grey Matter: "Then why didn't you?" He growled, and we proceeded to the control room. I jumped out o f the robot. Making it fall to the ground, and I went Brainstorm, and walked over to the controls.
Brainstorm: "I will attempt to steer this vessel back to our home planet, and , my dear Kevin, please keep watch."
Kevin 11: "Whatever." He stood guard, and I was inputting commands into the ship. After a while, though, things were not working well.
Brainstorm: "Oh, odd. Quite odd, indeed."
Kevin 11: "What's the problem, pukebrain?"
Brainstorm: "The ship seems to somehow be overriding my every command input. Quite curious as to how."
Slix: "It's quite simple actually. My hands control this ship, not yours. Only I tell my ship what to do."
Brainstorm: "Quite impossible! DO you suggest that I am an ignoramus, sir?"
Kevin 11: "You're smart-guy talk is really starting to annoy me, watch-boy." Some guard-bots came in, and were preparing to shoot.
Brainstorm: "Kevin, we must go on the offensive."
Kevin 11: "What?" I shot a lightning bolt at a robot, and Kevin shot out a flamethrower to hold back the guard bots, who were still shooting at us. Eventually more came.
Slix: "I suggest you work fast, human. Your friends here will soon die!" He showed us images of Technorg and the other aliens about to fall into a pit of weird purple Wildmutts.
Brainstorm: "Oh heavens!" I went Diamondhead, and built a wall up in front of the robots.
Kevin 11; "Now what?"
Diamondhead: "Slix is down below. If we hurry, we can get everyone out of here." I became Echo Echo, and hopped on to his back.
Echo Echo: "Giddyup, horsey!"
Kevin 11: "I am so going to slug you later for that." He jumped own, and got onto Slix's computer pod, and started to pulverize him, until I became Upgrade, and merged with Slix, separating myself from Kevin's chain.
Upgrade: "Kevin, Slix is the control panel! I now have full operation of this ship!"
Kevin 11: "Good for you! As long as I don't have to be tied to you anymore!" He flew off.
Upgrade: "Just when I thought we were starting to click." I caught myself typing on the keypad.
Upgrade: "What? Warp launch initiated? I didn't want that!"
Slix: "Did you think I'd submit to you so easily?" I flew the pod down, deactivated the robots and shackles holding Technorg and the other aliens, and Technorg punched Slix, giving control back to me.
Upgrade: "Thanks, Technorg."
Technorg: "Not a problem." I teleported us all to the escape pod room, where Kevin was breaking down a door.
Upgrade: "Hey Kev? Need a hand? Or six?" I used Slix's tentacles to unlock all of the space pods in the computer pad.
Upgrade: "Good. Now, everyone head back to your home planets!" They ran to their pods, but Technorg stayed right by me.
Upgrade: "Technorg…"
Technorg: "I told you. My life belongs to you."
Upgrade: "I'm giving it back! Go!" I shoved him into a pod, then closed the door. I separated form SLix, then attempted to attack him, but he grabbed me.
Slix: "No meatbag takes control of SLix Vigma! NOBODY DOES!" He was then stabbed by a diamond blade.
Upgrade: "Kevin? You SAVED me?"
Kevin 11: "Of course." I felt happy until he finished his sentence. "Why do you think I wasted my time helping these losers? I just wanted the right to finish you myself." I went Humongousaur, and was about to attack, but was shot against a wall by Kevin's goop. I couldn't even break out. He tossed Slix's body off his blade.
Kevin 11: "Now you're all mine Kyle! I can finish you, once, and for all!" I went Cannonbolt, then deflected his diamond blade.
Cannonbolt: "Oh yeah? Not today!" I rolled up, broke out of the goop, and bounced around the whole room, ricocheting off everything, until Kevin slammed into a wall. I then unrolled, walked into an open pod, and went Brainstorm to input the appropriate coordinates. Kevin was then trying to open the door, but as soon as I saw his face, Technorg's hand grabbed it, and the threw Kevin back.
Brainstorm: "Technorg. I thought I made you escape."
Technorg: "My life belongs to you!" He pressed a button, which was closing the doors. I reverted to normal, and said to him, "I guess we're even, big guy." I was then launched, and I landed right next to the RV, and stepped out as Swampfire.
Swampfire: "Dang it's hot in there!"
Gwen: "Kyle!" I ran towards the sound of the voice, seeing them run back for me, and I reverted to normal, then hugged Gwen and Ben. Max walked over, and I got a pat on the head form him.
Max; "What happened?"
Ben: "Where's Kevin? Did you beat him?"
Kyle: "Yep."
Gwen: "Where is he now?"
Kyle: "He has a new friend to play with.
The end.
