Chapter 48: Race against Time

The Final Kyle 10 Alien Force Alien… Alien No. 9!

Name: Pikachu

Species: Pikachu

Powers: Like regular Pikachu's, this one can shoot lightning bolts out of its cheeks, and is a fast runner. But this one is a special breed. He runs so fast, his after images can become clones, and they each have their own electricity generation cheeks. This one also can generate electric energy all over his body, and his tail is as hard as diamonds.

Weaknesses: His only strong area is his tail, so the rest of him, except for his head, is pretty much physically useless for attacks like punching or kicking. Also, people should refrain from touching him unless they are living conductors, wearing rubber gloves, or have electricity absorbing powers.

Strength: 6/10 (At his tail)

Durability: 4/10

Agility: 10/10

Senses/Reflexes: 7/10

Speed: 20

Energy/Mana projection: 10/10

Voice Actor: Tara Strong (Yes, it actually speaks human)

The weirdest thing EVER has happened. I fought a time-traveling bad guy. How is that possible? It all started when we heard summer was pretty much done for us. This meant, Gwen had to be separated from me, I got to joke around with Ben when he wasn't busy with homework, and I got to stop crooks around Bellwood for a hobby. SWEET! Well, mostly… because Gwen was moving out back to her Mom and Dad's place, and we were dropping her off first.

Gwen: "Well, I guess this is good-bye, Kyle. Until next summer."

Kyle: "Yeah Gwen. Until next summer, then." We immediately hugged each other, and gave each other a kiss, which, unfortunately…

Ben: "EWW! Can the dweeb just GO already?"

Kyle: "Ben… don't do that now…"

Ben: "Why… Oh… I am SO sorry, Kyle." He left us alone after that, then we continued with it for just a few more seconds, and let go.

Gwen: "I'll miss you, Kyle…"

Kyle; "Me too, Gwen… *sniff*"

Gwen: "Come on, don't do that. You're gonna make me cry…"

Kyle: "I'm sensitive, okay? I do that kind of crap…"

Gwen: "Come on, try to hold it in, or I'm gonna cry… and I don't like crying…"

Kyle: "I AM!"

Gwen: "Try harder… *sniff*" I went Wildmutt, and was hoping that would help, because he had no eyes, but it really didn't.

Wildmutt: "*Dog whimpers*"

Gwen: "Come on, Kyle! Don't do that!"

Wildmutt: "ROAR!"

Gwen: "Later, man!" She walked out, grabbed a tissue, and blowed her nose into it, then I rubbed against her, and she got me one, I put it in front of my nose, and started blowing mine, too.

Max: "Gwen, we don't have all day!"

Gwen: "I know Grandpa! I KNOW!"

Max: "They're still packing! Come on!" We both immediately stopped crying.

Gwen; "What about packing?"

Max: "Oh, that's right… forgot to tell ya. Your Dad called me yesterday, and they said they are moving to Bellwood! They just need to follow us to get there!"

Wildmutt: "Roar?"

Gwen: "Wait, if I'm moving to Bellwood, then that means… we can still be together all the time!" I was now panting, and charged over Gwen, licking her like a happy dog.

Gwen: "Kyle! Stop! STOP! I get it! Down, boy!" I got off of her, sitting like a dog, waiting for another command, and panting at the same time, with my tongue out.

Gwen: "Change back, please. Seriously. You pulled the Wildmutt dog trick enough times it's starting to get a little stale." I reverted to normal.

Kyle: "But I like doing that."

Gwen: "And get up on all twos like a human, Kyle. If I'm going to show you to my parents, you have to be normal."

Kyle: "Your parents?!"

Gwen: "Yeah. My parents. Didn't we discuss it enough times?"

Kyle: "Um, like twice. I still don't know how to…"

Gwen: "Just act natural, Kyle, come on!" I got up on my feet, then took a deep breath.

Kyle: "Okay. I'll come along, but I don't know how your parents will respond to your boyfriend being a 14 year old." We walked out of the RV, where I saw boxes placed in front of a driveway, and saw her parents with Ben and Max.

Kyle;"I saw them. Bye!" I ran back in.

Gwen: "Kyle, you little… GAH!" She ran back in, and the RV was shaking now. She was pulling me out and I was grabbing onto stuff trying to pull myself up onto the steps of the RV, but she pulled me out by force, then got me to stand up on my feet, then gave me her, 'death' stare. I immediately was frozen in place now.

Gwen: "I just want you to meet my parents, okay? Just… be yourself." She lost the death stare, making me lose pressure, and I relaxed.

Kyle: "Okay. My only question is, should they know about the Omnitrix, or what?"

Gwen: "Not for the moment. Come on." I walked with her towards them. Her Dad seemed calm, but her Mom looked slightly angry for some odd reason.

Gwen: "Hi Mom. Hi Dad! I missed you both!"

Gwen's Dad: "So did we, honey."

Gwen's Mom: "Who's this?"

Kyle: "I'm Kyle. She may have…"

Gwen's Mom: "So you're the one who's been putting our daughter in constant danger?!"

Kyle: "Whoa whoa whoa! Back up! When did I do that?"

Gwen's Dad: "Lily, we've been through this. We wouldn't get mad at him, remember?"

Gwen's Mom: *Taking a deep breath* you're right, Frank. I'm her Mom. Call me Mrs. Tennyson. Please."

Kyle: "Okay, Mrs. Tennyson. I'm sorry I got you pissed…"

Gwen's Mom: "Don't… worry about it…"

Gwen: "MOM! Seriously! Chill out."

Ben: "Aunt Lily?"

Gwen's Mom: "Gwen, Ben, I'm fine. I just… want him to know we do worry about Gwen."

Gwen's Dad: "Sorry about that Kyle. She's… tense, about a lot of things."

Kyle: "I've noticed, Mr. Tennyson."

Gwen's Dad: "Well, I'm her father, Frank. Just call me that, OK?"

Gwen's Mom: "Frank!"

Frank: "Well, I want him to know at least one of us supports his relationship with Gwen."

Kyle: "Yeah. I'm her boyfriend."

Gwen's Mom: "She's too young for that!"

Frank: "Who said you had to be teenagers, anyway?"

Kyle: "Um, there isn't a law about that."

Frank: "Well, if you ever need me, just stop by our place that we move to, okay? I'd be happy to help you out."

Kyle: "No prob, Frank. No prob at all." I put my hand out, and we shook on it.

Gwen's Mom: "Frank… I don't think Gwen should still be helping him with his… adventures."

Frank: "As long as she comes back safe, I don't think we should worry too much."

Kyle: "Sure. I always have her back, and she always has mine. In both relationship, and bad guy fighting."

Frank: "Well, I hope everything goes well with it." He smiled.

Kyle: "It will. I'll make sure of it."

Gwen: "So will I, Dad." She looked at me.

Gwen: "Wow. Dad does think you're great."

Kyle: "It was your Mom I was worried about."

Gwen's Mom: "I heard that!"

Max: "Lily… chill down a bit…"

Gwen's Mom: "You're right… breathe in… breathe out…"

Ben: "She's probably been going psycho since you two got together."

Kyle: "I wouldn't be the first one to have supposed that."

Frank: "Hey Gwen, how about coming in to our car? We need to catch up!" Gwen looked at me, and I just nodded. She ran to her parent's car, and it was following behind the RV with a moving truck that was also coming with us, that had all of their stuff in it.

Kyle: "Think Gwen will still be okay?"

Max: "Of course, Kyle. She's your partner after all, and it takes a lot of energy and hard work to be your partner."

Kyle: "Eh, you're right, Max. What am I worried about?"

Ben: "Hoping Uncle Frank and Aunt Lily would like you."

Kyle: "That worry is gone, and both Gwen and I's theories were correct." We pulled up to their new house.

Gwen's Mom: "This is a good place, isn't it, hon?"

Gwen: "Yep. Sure is."

Frank: "We could get used to this. Seems better than our other place."

Kyle: "Yep. Sure is."

Gwen's Mom: "I didn't ask you opinion!"

Kyle: "HEY! BACK OFF!" We got into each other's faces, staring each other down.

Gwen: "Kyle! Mom! Chill pills! Both of you!" I transformed to Big Chill in front of her, making her scream.

Big Chill: "Ooh, she'll get her chill pill alright." I was about to breathe out ice, but Max and Frank grabbed my hands.

Max: "Remember Kyle? Anger problems?"

Big Chill: "Oh. Yeah." I reverted to normal.

Kyle: "Chill pill, taken."

Gwen's Mom: "Okay. I get it. We both have to calm down, and get used to each other."

Kyle: "Yeah. We do. Phew…"

Ben: "You both cool?"

Kyle: "Mm-hmm."

Gwen's Mom: "Yes."

Kyle: "Now, if I may… Can I help you guys get set up?"

Gwen: "Of course!"

Frank: "That's awfully nice of you, Kyle."

Kyle: "You're welcome." I transformed into Fourarms, even creeping her Dad out slightly.

Fourarms: "What? Four times the arms, Four times the speed, right?"

Gwen: "You're right. I'll help, too." She picked up her whole bed by herself, making her Mom faint.

Frank: "Lily?"

Fourarms: "I'll get these tables. Hey, Frank, how about being our interior designer?"

Frank: "What about…"

Max; "I'm sure she'll be okay."

Frank: "But…"

Max: "I'll take her." He picked her up, and was holding her.

Frank: "We'd better start with that couch. Need something to put Lily on." I picked that up, and carried it in.

Frank: "Right here now, okay?" I set it where he told me too, and we put Gwen's Mom in the couch.

Gwen: "I'll just take this upstairs, okay, Dad?"

Frank: "Sure. But be careful not to scratch anything!"

Gwen: "Are you serious Dad? How could I?" She carried it right up the stairs with no trouble, and we saw how perfectly the bed was set. She even made the covers the right way.

Gwen: "Well?"

Fourarms: "Two words. HELL YES!"

Ben: "Wow."

Frank: "We'd better keep going. Don't want Lily to wake up to an empty house, do we?"

Fourarms: "I guess not."

Max: "Let's get crackin'." The furniture was all getting set up nice and neat, even in the parents' bedroom, and with Lily asleep, and we got to the flower pot.

Frank: "So, is there a form on that watch of yours that can get a plant in this pot? Nothing's ever grown in it since we got it."

Kyle: "Yeah, there is. I just have to… get it ready…" We heard some groaning, seeing Lily wake up, and saw we were done.

Gwen's Mom: "You already have the house all set up?"

Gwen: "Took only 10 minutes."

Gwen's Mom: "Wow. I am amazed. Can I look?"

Max: "Of course." Lily searched through each room in the house, then came back to us.

Ben: "Well?"

Lily: "Perfect. It's just perfect!"

Frank: "It was all thanks to Kyle that we did do it this early, too."

Gwen's Mom: "Really?" I nodded to her, smiling nervously.

Gwen's Mom: "You're useful for something after all, I see."

Kyle: "You little…"

Ben: "Whoa cowboy!"

Frank: "Kyle was about to fix up that flower pot of ours in the corner over here. So, you ready?"

Kyle: "Yes." I became Swampfire.

Swampfire: "Excuse the smell. You'll only have to deal with it for a few seconds."

Frank: "Ooh! No kidding!"

Gwen: "Eh, I'm used to it."

Swampfire: "Okay you guys, watch, and be amazed." I dropped a single seed into the pot, then sent down some gas into the pot. Almost immediately, a beautiful flower sprouted out, fully bloomed. I reverted to normal after it.

Kyle: "Well, Mrs. Tennyson? Like it?" I didn't sound angry at all, though.

Gwen's Mom: "We were trying FOREVER to get that plant to sprout up. Now, in just seconds, you make this beautiful flower… Oh, Kyle… you are a marvelous boy indeed."

Kyle: "I'm just glad you like it."

Gwen's Mom: "Thank you!" She ended up hugging me over it.

Kyle: "Mrs. Tennyson… I understand you like it, but…"

Gwen's Mom: "This exact flower is a lily, like my name, too. Did you do that on purpose?"

Kyle: "No, not really."

Gwen's Mom: "Call me Lily, Kyle. You've been good to Gwen and all of us just now."

Kyle: "Um, thanks." She let go, and we were sent off to go to Ben's house to drop him off.

Ben: "Wow. I've never seen Aunt Lily that happy before."

Kyle: "Really?"

Max: "It's probably been a while since she's felt that good."

Kyle: "I just made her day, then. Wow."

Ben: "Time for my parent's place."

Kyle: "Are they anything like Gwen's?"

Ben: "Aw, heck no! You'll see for yourself!" We pulled up into Ben's driveway about 10 minutes later, and all 3 of us stepped out to see Ben's parents. They actually both looked calm, thank God.

Ben's Dad: "Ben! Good to see you're back home! How was your trip?"

Ben: "Awesome! I have seen things few other human beings have seen, been in space, kicked an evil spell caster's butt, AND got to be the best sidekick EVER!!"

Ben's Dad: "Uh huh… you've been eating too much sugar again, Ben?"

Ben's Mom: "Max, how much sugar did he get?"

Max: "His normal amount, I would assume."

Ben's Dad: "Oh. So, this really happened?"

Ben: "Yeah!" Ben's parents looked at each other, then laughed a bit.

Ben's Mom: "Such a wild imagination. I love that about him."

Ben's Dad: "By the way, Dad, who is this?"

Max: "Him?"

Kyle: "I'm just Ben's newest most awesomest friend in the whole wide world! As he put it, anyway."

Ben: "Allow me to introduce, the newest hero, second only to Ishiyama from Sumo Slammers, Kyle, the Omnitrix bearer!"

Kyle: "I am LOADS better than that Sumo Slammer Punk."

Ben's Mom: "Well, aren't you handsome. I'm Sandra, this is Carl."

Ben: "They are CRAZY about that first name business."

Carl: "At this household, we're all equal. That includes visitors."

Kyle: "Oh. I see it now."

Carl: "Thanks for letting Ben come out with you, Dad."

Max: "Oh, no problems at all, Carl."

Ben: "Kyle's going already?"

Kyle: "I wish I could stay here a little while, I mean, Ben will only see me after school, when I'm done."

Ben: "Please?"

Sandra: "Well, for about 30 minutes, okay?"

Ben: "YES! I'll show you my room!" He pulled me into the house, and showed me the way upstairs into his room. As I thought, it was decked out with Sumo Slammer crap, and it was messy, like how Ben usually left his bed in the RV.

Kyle: "Sumo Slammer stuff. Figures."

Ben: "Well, what do you expect?"

Kyle: "I don't know."

Ben: "My whole card collection and game collection is here, I have every single DVD collection…"

Kyle: "Okay! I get it! You're the number 1 Sumo Slammer fan ever!"

Ben: "If only they had action figures of you out. I'd SO buy those."

Kyle: "Eh, I don't blame ya. I think I would, too."

Ben: "Why would you buy your own figures?"

Kyle: "Well, mostly to see if they got every detail JUST right on them. If not, I'd notify them, and let them fix it up."

Ben: "Wow. Detail bothers you?"

Kyle: "Only if it's major, I guess."

Ben: "Tell me about it."

Carl: "Kyle! Dad says it's time to go!"

Kyle:"Huh? I was barely here long enough."

Ben: "Well, I guess it's important."

Kyle: "Coming, Max!" I ran down the stairs, and Max took me back to where he always parked his RV, in the trailer park nearby to Ben's neighborhood.

Max: "Well, I guess this is where we all go back to normalcy, huh?"

Kyle: "Yep. I haven't been normal for two months… This is going to be hard to get used to."

Max: "I enrolled you into Bellwood High School, as well."

Kyle: "W-w-what?!"

Max: "Yep. Now, you can be friends with other people your own age."

Kyle: "But Max, I never got done with Eighth!"

Max: "Well, I can't change it now. Your papers have been finalized, and, you're enrolled. Like it or not."

Kyle: "Aw man…"

Max: "Besides, I'm sure you'll be fine there."

Kyle: "Okay… I'll live. Maybe."

Max: "My only requirement is, don't transform unless you absolutely have to."

Kyle: "Got it, Max… "

Max: "Good. You also get to take Ben and Gwen to school in the morning."

Kyle: "SWEET!"

Max: "I knew you'd like that, if nothing else."

Kyle: "Bellwood Middle School, right?"

Max: "You bet. I'd better start making you dinner for a good sleep tonight."

Kyle: "Alright. Bellwood High, here comes Kyle 10!"

Max: "Good. Watch some TV until I finish dinner."

Kyle: "Okay." So, I watched Alien Hero League of Justice, as usual. Max and I had a decent dinner together, but it just wasn't the same without Ben and Gwen's constant complaining. I went to bed kind of early, though, just because there wasn't much to do except listen to Max's old Plumber stories, which don't get me wrong, are great, but, sometimes he drags them on to long.

Max: "See ya in the morning, Kyle. We gotta rise up early."

Kyle: "No problem Max." We went to sleep in our usual places, and I got to use the back instead of the couch this time, since Ben and Gwen weren't there. The next morning was a cool start. Breakfast instantly got me energized, and Max got me the school stuff we got over the summer.

Kyle: "Backpack, check, Jacket, check, Omnitrix, check, ready to go, Max! See ya later!" I became XLR8, and zoomed off to Ben's house.

Max: "He'll be fine." I knocked on Ben's door, and he opened it.

Ben: "Kyle! There you are!"

XLR8: "Kid no. 1! Hop on!" Ben hopped on, and I made a zoom over to Gwen's place, knocking on the door. Gwen came out.

Gwen: "KYLE!" She ran out, and hugged me.

XLR8: "It's only been a day, Gwen." She hopped on with Ben.

XLR8: "Pedal to the metal! In 1… 2… 3…! Hang on to your underwear!!" I zoomed off for the school, and stopped right in front of Bellwood Middle School.

XLR8: "Here we are!" My helmet popped open.

Ben: "Well, everyone, here's to a good day in school, huh?"

Gwen: "Coming from you, doofus?"

Ben: "Ha ha. Very funny."

XLR8: "Well… let's go for it anyway, huh?"

Ben: "Kyle. I'll tell you if Cash and JT did anything to me while I was at school."

XLR8: "They do, and things will get a little messy."

Gwen: "I hope they know that. Here they come now."

Ben: "Kyle, don't take off just yet."

XLR8: "I understand. Just let me get in my role." I became Rath.

Cash: "Well if it isn't… OH GOD! Not you again!"

Rath: "Let me tell you something, Cash and JT, school bullies! If I hear from Ben you pulled any wedgies on him, or anything at all, you will not only get school detention, but SCHOOL DETENTION, RATH STYLE! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?!"

Cash: "Y-y-y-yes, sir…"

JT: "You can count on it…"

Rath: "I thought so!" I became XLR8 again.

XLR8: "See ya later you two." Gwen gave me a small smooch before I took off, then I did.

Gwen: "And if you two start making fun of me about that, you will not only answer to him, but you'll answer to me, too!" To prove her point, she walked over to a car, and picked it up with only one hand.

Cash: "Yes, ma'am!"

JT: "We understand!"

Ben: "So, no funny ideas!"

Gwen: "Ben, I think Kyle and I demonstrated our point enough. Let's leave this at that, huh?"

Ben: "Okay…" they both walked in, With Cash and JT walking behind, scared s***less. I had just now ran to the front of the High School, and walked in. I saw only one girl inside. She had purple/lavender streaked hair, was wearing nothing but a black top that left her belly button showing, and some black shorts with gray stripes, black boots with gray stripes, and was wearing black, spiked chokers. One on her neck, and three each on her arms. One near the top, one where the elbow was, and one where the wrist was. She also had pilot goggles across her forehead. But, she didn't look angry. She looked more like she was afraid to get caught. I just reverted to normal, and went behind her.

Kyle: "Um, hi…"

Goth girl: "AGH! No! I'm not her! I'm not her!"

Kyle; "Whoa whoa whoa… CHILL OUT!" She stopped freaking out, then saw me.

Goth girl: "Oh, sorry. I just… was freaked out that my parents would notice I drove out with their car and…"

Kyle: "You stole your parents' car?!"

Goth Girl: "Yeah but…"

Kyle: "You are awesome!"

Goth girl: "Huh?"

Kyle: "How'd you do it and not get caught?!"

Goth girl: "Well, they don't wake up until 10 AM anyway. I'm also able to get the car to drive itself home. Watch." She snapped her fingers, and the car lit back on, motor running and everything.

Kyle: "Ooooh…"

Goth girl: "That's not even the half of it. Go home, boy! Go home!" The car backed out, then drove itself like it had a mind of its own.

Kyle: "Oh my God…"

Goth girl: "Cool, huh?"

Kyle: "Oh hell yeah! What's your name?"

Goth girl: "Ali. I was born with the power to just manipulate electricity and spark it up in anything I want it to."

Kyle: "SWEET! I'm Kyle. I have powers, too."

Ali: "Like what? Show me."

Kyle: "Well…" I transformed into Heatblast.

Ali: "You're an alien shapeshifter?"

Heatblast: "Yep. I can change into other guys, too."

Ali: "Like what?" I transformed into Humongousaur, then went Visor, and became Big Chill as a finale, then changed back to human.

Ali: "Wait… You emit an electric pulse every time you change. Do you have an… Omnitrix?"

Kyle: "No way. How did you know about it?!"

Ali: "My Dad's a Plumber. He used to live on the planet Galvan for a while, and he always brought back info on a device called the Omnitrix. Those papers were very interesting to read."

Kyle: "You can read alien?"

Ali: "Yep. Down to the last mark of it."

Kyle: "Wow."

Ali: "And in case you're wondering on my look, I'm not Goth. I just like the look."

Kyle; "I wasn't wondering that at all, Ali."

Ali: "Sweet. Everyone I meet just automatically assumes I'm Goth because of how I look. I hate that!"

Kyle: "Well, don't worry about it. Hell, I've had aliens look at me in an alien form, and everyone thought I was actually the alien I was using."

Ali; "So, we both have identity crisis's, huh?"

Kyle; "I guess so."

Ali: "So, who do you have first hour?" We compared our schedules now.

Kyle: "Wow. Our classes are exactly the same!"

Ali: "Well, that's a weird coincidence. Jesus Christ…"

Kyle; "Tell me about it… did you just say Jesus Christ?"

Ali: "Yeah."

Kyle: "I say that too!"

Ali: "Hell, we're practically the same kind of person."

Kyle: "We are the same person, Ali. For some reason."

Ali: "Except I'm female, you're male, you have an Omnitrix, and I don't."

Kyle: "Well, I guess we should head for our first class, then. Oh, this'll be great."

Ali: "Oh hell yes." We were in our first class, English.

Teacher: "Say here if you're here. Ali?"

Ali: "Here!" The list kept going on until I was the last person.

Teacher: "Kyle?"

Kyle: "Here." Ali and I were right next to each other, throughout the whole day, even through lunch. Things started out so awesome in school. I even took her back to her house with Ben and Gwen at the end of the day as XLR8. Turns out Cash and JT heard my warning as well. They're smart when they have to be. Good for them.

Max: "So, Kyle, how was the first day of Bellwood High?"

Kyle: "It was actually awesome! I met this girl who's exactly like me, almost, we connect on an even level with each other, by some stroke of luck, we ended up in all of the same classes, she is almost as awesome as Gwen! Plus, she can make cars turn on without putting a key in the ignition!"

Max: "Wow. This new girl sounds pretty darn cool. What's her name?"

Kyle: "Ali."

Max: "Hmm… So, did she know what the Omnitrix was?"

Kyle: "Yeah, kind of. Her Dad, who was a Plumber, used to live on Galvan, getting info on the Omnitrix and sending it to Ali. She read all of the reports on them."

Max: "Anyone I know?"

Kyle; "I don't know."

Max: "Hm. So, how will the next day go?"

Kyle: "I don't know, but I'm going on patrol tonight, and she's coming with me and Gwen. That okay with you?"

Max: "What do her parents say?"

Kyle: "Her parents don't give a s***. Those were their exact words."

Max: "Okay, as long as Gwen doesn't mind."

Kyle: "She doesn't, I'm sure."

Later…

Gwen: "Again, WHY are we taking her with us?"

Ghostfreak: "It's nothing bad, Gwen. Just trust us. She'll be a great help to us."

Ali: "Geez, Gwen, fall off the bed this morning?"

Ghostfreak: "Heh. I sometimes wonder that, too, Ali."

Gwen: "FOCUS, you two!"

Ali: "Oh, right." We started scanning the city all together as a group.

Ghostfreak: "Gwen, Ali, start searching together. I'll take off this way."

Ali: "Kyle, you said we'd stick together!"

Ghostfreak: "Well, I need to make sure that we can ALL work together as a team." I took off into the night.

Ali: "So, Gwen, um, just so you know, you're in charge, okay?"

Gwen: "Best thing I've heard from you all day,"

Ali: "HEY!"

Gwen: "Just don't get in my way, okay?"

Ali: "Fine." Gwen took off, and Ali followed behind. After a while, they saw some guys destroying stuff in town. They didn't stop, either.

Ali: "Looks like it's time to bring down the house, huh, Gwen?"

Gwen: "Why not?" They went after the guys. Gwen punched one across the face, then kicked aside another one. Ali shot out electricity at one of the other guys, then when one came for her, she directed the electricity to go after him. They were handling the guys just fine, until the last one came in, who was shooting out purple energy at them. Ali retaliated with a few electric shocks, but they failed, and he attacked her again, making her fall over. Gwen tried to attack next, but that failed, as she was knocked aside as well.

Gwen: "Who IS this guy?!"

Ali: "Gwen, I'm gonna absorb something metal. Stand back. It could get crazy."

Gwen: "Okay, Ali." She took off, and the figure was about to go after Ali, but Gwen stopped him, and shot a fireball in his face. He backed up, and was about to attack again, nut gwen kept pummeling him with fireballs.

Gwen: "Find anything metal yet?!"

Ali: "Yeah!" She touched a steel water pipe, and absorbed it, running back into the fight, and charged her fists with electricity.

Gwen: "That's stupid! You'll only electrocute yourself!"

Ali: "Ha. Watch me!" She transformed her hands into machine guns, and started shooting out electric bullets right into the guy. Gwen moved to the side, and the guy flailed around on each impact. She transformed both of her hands into hammers after that, and started wailing on the guy with them, then finally smacked him across the face with one final blow. He hit the ground, shaking.

Ali: "And that's how we do things in MY hometown!"

Gwen: "Amazing…"

Ali: "I know. After I absorb steel, I can make my hands into any kind of weapon I want, and I get the strength and durability of steel. I also don't electrocute myself."

Gwen: "You are the BOMB!"

Swampfire: "Good job, Ali. I'll finish this guy from here, with an Ultimate form!"

Gwen: "ultimate form?"

Swampfire: "Just watch, Gwen." I slapped down on my symbol, and transformed into a tree with arm, legs, a big blue pod on top of me, and my face materialized out of the front.

Swampfire: "Ultimate Swampfire!"

Ali: "Wow! You can evolve your aliens into their Ultimate stages?!"

Ultimate Swampfire: "Hell yeah."

Gwen: "When did you get that?"

Ultimate Swampfire: "Just now."

Guy: "So, you are the Omnitrix bearer. I've been looking for you."

Ultimate Swampfire: "Normally, I'd try to figure out who you were, but seeing as I'm not in the mood, I'm just going to kick your a** now." I shot a blue flamethrower out at him, and he took it, then I shot some smaller blue embers. They exploded on contact, then Gwen and Ali attacked together, at the same time. The guy got up, and shot a purple ray at us. I shot a blue flamethrower again, Ali made two cannons, and Gwen got a blast ready. We all fired into the purple wave, then overwhelmed it, destroying the dude.

Ultimate Swampfire: "Well, that was easy."

Ali: "Maybe a little too easy."

Gwen: "Come on. We beat the bad guy, day saved." I reverted back to normal Swampfire.

Swampfire: "But even in my new Ultimate forms, fights should last a bit longer than that."

Gwen: "Really?"

Swampfire: "And using it takes a tad bit out of me. I didn't run out of much energy at all."

Ali: "Well, we'd better get rested up for school tomorrow. All of us, right?"

Gwen: "Admittedly, you are right, Ali. I am a little drowsy…" I transformed into Big Chill.

Big Chill: "I'll get us all home." I took Gwen back first, then left Ali at her place. Ali's place seemed slightly run down, but still standing.

Big Chill: "You sure you don't want to stay at my place tonight? It might be a trailer, but at least it's a comfy trailer."

Ali: "I'm okay, Kyle. Thanks, anyway." She walked into her house. I flew back to Max's RV, and turned in for the night. The next day… I dropped all four of us, Me, Gwen, Ben and Ali, right in between both Bellwood Middle School, and Bellwood High School as XLR8 again.

XLR8: "You two can reach the high school without me, right, from here?"

Ben: "I'm sure. Don't worry about us."

Ali: "Good."

XLR8: "I'll be taking Ali with me to the high school. See ya later."

Gwen: "Bye, Kyle." She smooched me. I did it back, and we ran to the schools.

Ali: "Why does Gwen do that?"

XLR8: "I'm her boyfriend."

Ali: "Aww… that's cute."

XLR8: "Well, I didn't want anyone else at the High School to know about it."

Ali: "It's okay. My lips are sealed."

XLR8: "Thanks, Ali." I reverted to normal, and we were about to go in, when Ali pulled out a camera.

Ali: "Hey, Kyle, how about a picture?"

Kyle: "Sure." We went in front of a statue of Abraham Lincoln in the front, and took a picture of ourselves. Ali then twitched after the picture.

Kyle: "Ali? You just twitched."

Ali: "Oh, that? It's nothing much. I can sense nonhuman energy if it passes by me, I think…"

Kyle; "You think?"

Ali: "Either that or it's some kind of weird seizure."

Kyle: "Either way, you're fine, Ali. Come on." We ran into the school, and we started getting stuff near our lockers, which were next to each other.

Ali: "So, are we going on patrol again tonight, or are we just going to do something different?"

Kyle; "I haven't decided yet. Why?"

Ali: "Well… it's just, there is nothing to do at my parent's place."

Kyle; "Maybe you can come back with me tonight."

Ali: "Okay. I'll be there."

Kyle: "Sweet."

Guy: "Dude, why are you talking to her? She's Goth!"

Kyle; "She's not really Goth, she just likes the look. And why is this your business?"

Guy: "I'm on the newspaper. Our school couples section is already pointing to you two."

Kyle; "First off, we only met yesterday, and the fact we're in every class together, and our lockers are right next to each other, is complete chance!"

Guy: "Well, fine. Be defensive. Like the newspaper cares that much." He left.

Ali: "B******."

Kyle: "F*** yeah." We nodded at each other. It wasn't too bad of a day from then on. Until the end, while we were leaving, some Juniors thought they could get us for money.

Junior 1: "Hand over your lunch money, b****."

Ali: "Ex-CUSE me?!"

Kyle: "Whoa, what's going on here?"

Junior 2: "Hand over your money! Or you both won't look pretty tonight."

Ali: "Kyle…"

Kyle: "Well, we're both broke right now. How's that?"

Junior 1: "Then I guess we can just beat the s*** out of you."

Kyle: "That would work, IF you were dealing with an ordinary freshman. 'Cept I'm not. I'll show you why." I transformed into Humongousaur, and roared at them.

Junior 2: "RUN! He's a freak!" They kept running.

Humongousaur: "Heh. That's how the cookie crumbles."

Ali: "Cool."

Humongousaur: "This is nothing." I transformed to XLR8, and let Ali hop on. I also picked up Ben and Gwen, getting them home, as well. I came to Max's RV as a final stop.

XLR8: "Here we are, Ali. Home sweet home."

Ali: "Can I come in?"

XLR8: "I don't see why not." I reverted to normal, then opened the door with my keys.

Max: "Hi, Kyle. Ooh, who's this?"

Ali: "I'm Kyle's friend, Ali. You're his Grandpa?"

Max: "Nope. I'm his girlfriend's Grandpa. I just let him live with me."

Ali: "Do your parents know where you are, Kyle?"

Kyle: "I don't really talk about that."

Ali: "Oh. I'm sorry, Kyle. I…"

Kyle: "Not your fault. It's mine for not telling you sooner."

Max: "If you're going to be staying a while, maybe you should have some of my dinner."

Ali: "What is it?"

Max: "A fresh batch of Salamander Eggs."

Kyle: "Mmm-MM! Salamander."

Ali: "Forget I asked."

Kyle: "Come on. It's good."

Ali: "Maybe as Humongousaur."

Kyle: "It's good as a human. Come on. I'll let you have just a small taste first."

Ali: "Okay…" She gulped, then I gave her only a finger-full of it. She ate it right out of my hand, then swallowed it. Her eyes widened.

Ali: "This is… amazing!"

Kyle: "See? Give things a chance. You may just like them." I smiled.

Ali: "Oh. I forgot. My camera still has that picture saved in it somewhere." We looked, and saw us, but with a purple guy floating behind me.

Ali: "Wait. This is the same guy from the night before!"

Max; "What are you talking about?"

Ali: "You might want to look." Max pulled the camera to his face, and gasped, dropping it. I caught it, and we both looked at him with concerned looks.

Max: "That's Eon. The first villain the Plumbers ever had captured. How did he escape?"

Kyle; "Got me, Max."

Max: "We should get Gwen and Ben. There isn't much time."

Ali: "Okay. Get all the help we can get?"

Max: "Exactly."

Kyle: "So, Ali, I never heard your last name. What was it?"

Ali: "Oh. It's Levin." Max stopped the RV.

Max: "Did you just say your last name was Levin?"

Ali: "Y-yes…"

Max: "That's familiar. Too familiar."

Kyle: "Is this bad or good?"

Max: "I just haven't heard that name in a while is all." He kept going, and Ali and I shrugged at each other. We went out to a new place out in a sandy area, and I was Upgrade merged with the RV when we got there. I went off, and reverted to normal. Everyone else got out.

Kyle: "So, this Eon guy is supposed to be trapped here?"

Max: "Supposedly. Why?"

Gwen: "He could have escaped. That's why."

Ben: "Back with bad guy fighting. Oh yeah!"

Ali: "Let's get this done quick. We don't have time to be playing around, Ben."

Ben: "Aww…"

Kyle: "I'll take the lead." Ali touched the steel wall, and absorbed it onto herself.

Ben: "Cool!"

Ali: "I know. I can do this with any solid, but, steel works the best with my other power."

Kyle; "Guys, stay on your toes." Gwen got her Lucky Girl suit on, and I was ready to transform at any moment. We saw a guy still in a chair, then turned it around. In it was a guy aged beyond belief. We all freaked.

Gwen: "Ew…"

Old guy: "Are you… Kyle 10?"

Kyle; "Y-y-yeah…"

Old guy: "Eon… is… free…"

Kyle: "I know. What's he after?"

Old guy: "Your… Omnitrix. With it, he can activate the Hands of Armageddon."

Ali: "I heard of that device… Oh God no…"

Max: "We'll do this for you. We will."

Old guy: "Max… make sure he… he… doesn't… get to the Hands…"

Max: "Affirmative."

Old guy: "Kyle, this is all in your hands now. Don't fail…"

Kyle: "I won't. I never fail." The old guy gave one last dying breath.

Max: "He was a good Plumber. One of our most honorable."

Ali: "So, where do we start now?"

Max: "We have to get back to Bellwood. Eon may already be there."

Kyle: "Right." I became Upgrade, and we all got in me when I merged with the RV. I zoomed back to Bellwood, then let Max drive us the rest of the way.

Max: "Follow me, you four." Ali was the last out. She grabbed my hand for some reason.

Kyle; "Ali… Everything's going to be okay."

Ali: "I hope so."

Max: "Aw, come on, Ali. Show some backbone."

Ben: "I'm powerless, and I'm still showing no fear."

Gwen: "Ben… Look Ali. Just follow Kyle's and my lead. We'll beat Eon."

Ali: "Y-you're right. Good always wins, right?"

Kyle: "Yeah. Come on."

Max: "Follow me." He got up an elevator, and we each stepped in it. We got to the bottom floor.

Kyle; "What's down here?"

Gwen: "The Hands, right?"

Max: "You are correct, Gwen." We followed him through the chambers below, until we got to a new room, full with other older people.

Ben: "Principal?"

Ben's Principal: "Yep. It's me, Ben." I also recognized the restaurant lady.

Kyle: "Restaurant lady!"

Restaurant lady: "Whatever, boy…"

Max: "We're all here?"

Gwen: "Yeah. All five of us."

Ali: "Hi."

Ben: "Oh boy…"

Kyle: "Where're the Hands?"

Ben's Principal: "Right there, Kyle." He pointed to a circular looking device.

Ali: "Looks like a game show spinner."

Restaurant lady: "Girl, it's much more than that."

Kyle: "I'm shutting this thing down."

Voice: "I don't think so!" A purple glowing guy came out, with a group of minions.

Kyle: "Eon…"

Eon: "Exactly, Omnitrix bearer. Give me it!"

Kyle; "I don't… What the…" I noticed it wouldn't start working right.

Kyle; "Come on you little… Don't go dead on me now…"

Ben: "Kyle, maybe we should go hero?!"

Kyle; "Come on!!! Work!"

Ali: "Maybe I can jump start it!" She sent an electric pulse through it, activating it.

Kyle; "Thanks!" I became Big Chill.

Big Chill: "So, you guys think you can just bust in here and take the hands?!"

Eon; "That is my quest, boy. Surrender yourself to me, and things will go on much more smoothly."

Big Chill: "Not in a million years!"

Eon: "Funny you should say that. On my planet, time goes by much more swiftly than here. Atack!" His minions charged, and Ali got out a steel mace, then charged. Gwen joined her.

Max: "Kyle, you go for Eon. His cronies are ours!"

Big Chill: "Exactly my plan. Max." Eon was going for the hands, but I freezed him down. He busted out, and shot an energy ball at me. I dodged his attack, by a few hairs, then kept going for him. I made ice maces out of my hands, and tried to engage him in hand to hand combat. He easily beat me at it, and I shot a blizzard at him. He moved through it.

Eon: "If you think that your pitiful Necrofriggian form can stop me, you are out of luck."

Big Chill: "Maybe I can't, but as I showed you before, Eon. There's a time for hero, then there's a time to go ULTIMATE!" I slapped my symbol down, and started getting a hot rod flame paint job, and all my blue parts were becoming red.

Big Chill: "Ultimate Big Chill!"

Eon: "You must be severely mistaken, boy. Even this form cannot defeat me."

Ultimate Big Chill: "I guess we'll see." I shot out a red flamethrower from my hands, and Eon managed to dodge it. He shot another energy ball, but I made it go straight through me. I then made fire maces on my hands, and slapped him with them. He looked like he actually felt those attacks that time. I even started to give him burns. He shot me eventually, then got to the Hands, but I shot ice at him from my mouth, and he was frozen.

Ultimate Big Chill: "Fire and ice, Eon. They go hand in hand with me." Eon once again busted out, then shot me. I made the shot fly straight through me, and it hit a wall.

Eon: "This is pointless. I can't even get the hands to work properly!"

Ultimate Big Chill: "Then that means you should go quietly, and never return. Your plan will fail."

Eon: "No… NO!" He came at me, charging with his full might. I did as well, but I overpowered him instantly, and he hit the ground.

Ultimate Big Chill: "Give it up, Eon. We got you and your cronies on the run. There's no point in resisting us."

Eon: "See you later." He teleported out, taking his cronies with him.

Ultimate Big Chill: "Hmph. It wasn't even worth it."

Max: "Why?"

Ultimate Big Chill: "He couldn't power up the Hands." I had been forced to revert back to normal Big Chill.

Big Chill: "Darn! The Ultimate wore off!"

Gwen: "It has a time limit?"

Big Chill: "I knew I should have worked faster on him! AGH!"

Ben: "Well, the good news is, he can't use the hands, so they're useless to him." I reverted to normal form.

Kyle; "Now what? Just let Eon keep going?"

Max: "We'll get him the next time he shows himself, Kyle. Don't worry."

Ali: "We're going to have to just wait?" She made her mace a hand, then got the steel off of herself.

Max; "For now, yes. Until then, just go on normally with your lives."

Gwen: "Sounds normal."

Kyle: "I hate normal sometimes…"

Ali: "You still got us."

Kyle: "I do alright."

The next day…

Ali and I were in gym class, playing dodgeball.

Ali: "Is that all you got?!"

Kyle: "My Grandma can throw better than that!"

Sophomore: "EAT THIS!" He threw another one, but it missed me.

Junior: "He has to be using his freaky alien powers on us!"

Kyle: "Oh yeah! Blame me because I can turn into a huge dinosaur guy!"

Gym Teacher: "BREAK!" We all stopped.

Gym teacher: "Do you see him as an alien? I sure don't! He's playing fairly!"

Junior: "But, Mr. Thorn…"

Mr. Thorn: "To the locker room! Both of you! I won't tolerate immature whining in my gym!" They both took off to the boy's locker room.

Mr. Thorn: "Play dodgeball!" The balls were coming at us again, then I saw an explosion come out at us. It had purple energy on it, and Eon was walking in, by himself.

Ali: "Eon."

Eon: "Omnitrix bearer! Come with me!!"

Kyle: "For the last time, HELL NO!" I transformed into Diamondhead this time.

Diamondhead: "Ali, find something to absorb, and get back into the fight. I got Eon for now."

Ali: "Right." She found some steel piping again, and absorbed that.

Ali: "There we go." She made her hands machine guns, and started blasting Eon. Eon dodged each shot, and I punched him across the face. He fell down, then threw an energy ball at me. I absorbed it, then shot it back at him. He dodged it, then Ali came at him with two hammer hands, and smashed him with both of them. He recovered, then shot at Ali. I took the shot again, and shot it back. Eon took the blow.

Diamondhead: "You're outmatched, Eon. Better change your battle plan while you're behind."

Eon: "Boy, you WILL come to me. I need you to bring back the Chronian race!"

Dimaondhead: "Yeah, if they're all as evil as you, not gonna happen."

Eon: "Maybe then… if you do it in exchange for your… friend." I saw him holding Ali now.

Diamondhead: "NO! Ali!"

Ali: "I'll be okay! Just get him!"

Diamondhead: "Okay. Here comes… ULTIMATE!" I slapped my symbol, then my jaw was growing out into a beak-like mouth, diamond wings grew out of my back, then a tail grew out. My hands turned into claws, then finishing the transformation, I got on all fours, and spikes grew down my spine.

Diamondhead: "Ultimate Diamondhead!!"

Ali: "Kyle!"

Eon: "What is THAT?!"

Ultimate Diamondhead: "Eon, no one uses my friends as bait!" I slammed my front feet into the ground, then two giant spikes struck Eon across the face. He flew into the ceiling behind him, then Ali started barraging him with electric bullets again. I flew up into the air, and struck him with my claws, then hurled him off to the side. Ali held the machine gun to his head, like I started growling in his face.

Eon: "You still have no idea what I can do, do you?" he shot out his energy again, blowing both of us away from him, reverting me to normal Diamondhead, and Ali's metal came off.

Ali: "My steel armor!"

Eon: "Your powers won't work anymore."

Ali: "Really?" She shot out an electricity stream, damaging Eon. I then changed to Metrion, and trapped him against the next wall.

Metrion: "Eon, You will NOT have my Omnitrix!"

Eon: "In due time, human, I will. In due time…" he faded away. I reverted to normal.

Kyle: "Ali, we're going after him. If he wants me, he's going to get me."

Ali: "Me, too." The next night…

Kyle: "Hey, EON! You want me! I'm right here!"

Ali: "Me too, Eon. Come on. You can handle both of us, right?" Eon's cronies came out, and grabbed us.

Kyle: "UGH! Going… Heatblast!" I noticed the Omnitrix wasn't working again.

Kyle: "Ali! Jump start it!"

Ali: "I can't! It's too far away! And I'm overwhelmed by these freaks!"

Kyle:"Great!" They punched me into the ground, and I was unconscious. I woke up later, dazed, but saw Ali next to me.

Kyle: "Ali! You can jump start it now, right?"

Ali: "Kyle, I can't. I'm tied up in rubber, and I can't pry it apart!"

Kyle: "Can't you absorb it, then slip out?"

Ali: "Tried that. Got even more stuck."

Kyle: "Just f***ing great."

Eon: "Kyle, Ali, humans that are powerless to stop me."

Kyle; "Where are Gwen and Ben?"

Eon: "They're dealing with my henchmen now. It seems that they knew you'd go after me again."

Kyle: "You little…"

Eon: "The Omnitrix!" He grabbed it, then started dialing in a combination, and made the Omnitrix turn completely purple.

Kyle: "What are you doing?!"

Eon: "I will make you into a younger me…"

Kyle: "NO! AGH!"

Eon: "It is pointless to resist me, Kyle." He pushed the faceplate down when he saw his silhouette in it, then I became him, and freed myself.

Eon: "Now, do what you were programmed to do, my clone!"

Ky-Eon: "Yes, Lord Eon."

Ali: "Kyle!!" She saw Gwen come in now.

Ali: "Gwen! Help me down!" Gwen unhesitantly shot her down, freeing her. Eon disappeared, then I turned to the two of them.

Gwen: "Is that… Kyle?"

Ali: "Eon turned him into a younger version of himself. He is NOW Eon."

Gwen: "Not for long." She punched me across my face, but I smacked her aside, and was moving my arms.

Gwen: "Kyle, it's me, Gwen!"

Ky-Eon: "I am not Kyle. My name is Eon, humans. Learn your place." I put my hands out, and Gwen got in front of Ali, with a force field.

Ky-Eon: "You think that trick will- GAH!" Max hand shot at me with a Plumber pistol.

Max: "Kyle, it's time for you to go to after school detention."

Ky-Eon: "My name is Eon, old man! Kyle is gone!"

Gwen; "No he isn't! Come on! Kyle, fight it!"

Ky-Eon: "It is done. I will take over this universe, and bring it back into a new Chronian order, as my master wants."

Ali: "Wait a minute. You're Eon, right?"

Ky-Eon: "Yes… your point?"

Ali: "Eon doesn't have a superior, correct?"

Ky-Eon: "N-N-No… But…"

Ali: "But nothin'. You are Eon, master of the Chronian race. You therefore have defied your own ruling."

Ky-Eon: "But, I, must… be… Eon who doesn't take orders from… zero one zero one one zero zero zero one… AAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!" I sent out a purple energy wave from my body, then hit the ground.

Ali: "Kyle?"

Ky-Eon: "Time paradox. The Eon consciousness destroyed himself."

Gwen: "Kyle?! Is that…"

Ky-Eon: "Yep. It's me."

Gwen: "Kyle…"

Ky-Eon: "Now, to destroy this device!" I charged up my hands, then destroyed the Hands of Amrageddon. The old Eon came back.

Eon: "You… HOW?!"

Ky-Eon: "I was you, who takes orders from no one. Your younger clone destroyed himself."

Eon: "You… you… now we take this to MY world!!!" He shot out a field around me and him, then teleported us into space.

Ky-Eon: "What are you doing?"

Eon: "Kyle, you may have my body, and my powers, but you do NOT know how to use them!"

Ky-Eon: "Let's test that theory out, huh?"

Eon: "Yes. Let's!" Both of our hands glowed with brimming purple energy, and we were brawling with those hands. I was actually losing to him.

Eon: "Face it, Kyle. Ky-Eon is no match for me!"

Ky-Eon: "I haven't exhausted my options yet!" I fired an energy wave at Eon, but he was unaffected by it. He shot me again, and I fell over, almost dying on impact by the shot.

Eon: "You cannot hope to defeat me, boy…"

Ky-Eon: "AGH!" I got back up, and started punching and kicking at him. He blocked each shot, then knocked me over.

Eon: "I am invincible, Kyle."

Ky-Eon: "Maybe so… but my new rig does come with a few extras!" I slapped my symbol, then a helmet covered my body, my overcoat became a cape, and I got a new system on my chest. I pulled something out of my belt, then a long purple beam extended out of it.

Ky-Eon: "Meet Ultimate Ky-Eon!"

Eon: "What!? NO! I don't have an Ultimate form! I am already the most powerful being in the universe!"

Ultimate Ky-Eon: "Not according to my Ultimate form you don't!" I charged at him. Eon tried to stop me by attacking, but I was unphased by his beams. I then decapitated his head by slashing it right off. I teleported myself back down to Earth, then snapped my fingers, creating a supernova in the sky.

Ali: "Ultimate Ky-Eon?"

Ultimate Ky-Eon: "Yes, Ali. Ultimate Ky-Eon. That would be me."

Gwen: "So, you can evolve anyone into their ultimate stage?"

Ultimate Ky-Eon: "Yes, Gwen. Yes I can."

The end.

Next is the Negative 10 two parter.
