The Beginning of the End
Alright people the end is coming.
This is the first of the ending chapters.
So enjoy this chapter and stay cool readers :)
The Rust Bucket 3 was making it's way back home from the Caribbean.
Lance and Albedo were asleep while Ben was sitting with his head on Kevin's shoulder.
" I can't believe the honeymoon is over. I wish we could have stayed longer."
Ben said in a happy, serene voice as his eyes were sparkling brightly wishing it would last forever.
Kevin looks at Ben and smiles as he wraps one arm around him and smiles in content until Ben's cellphone goes off.
" I thought you turned it off."
Kevin frowned at the fact that a cellphone interrupted the happy moment.
" Yeah when we were on vacation and I just turned it on now. WOW 20 messages from Gwen?"
Ben checked his voice-mail and gasped at the messages from his cousin.
The final one left was really ominous and dark and the panic on Gwen's voice didn't help at all.
" BEN PLEASE ANSWER THE PHONE, SOMETHING BIG HAS HAPPENED AND IT HAS TO DO WITH VILGAX! THE KIDS ARE FINE JUST GET TO LANCE AND ALBEDO'S HOUSE WHEN YOU GET THIS!"
Ben hung up his phone and started to tremble violently from the message..
Kevin felt Ben tremble and set the ship to auto-pilot as he tried to calm him.
" Did something happen? Ben talk to me!"
Ben kept looking forward as he soft in a scared tone.
" Gwen said to go to Lance and Albedo's house when we get back."
Lance and Albedo woke up and wondered what was going on.
" Are the kids okay?"
Albedo felt his nerves falter as Ben explained Gwen's message.
" She said they're okay and for us to hurry. It has to do with Vilgax."
" Well let's go already!"
Kevin put the new coordinates in and let the ship fly since Ben wouldn't go of him.
Kevin didn't mind it one bit and rubbed Ben's back to calm him down.
When they arrived, fire trucks and plumbers surrounded the area.
The ship landed and Lance and Albedo jumped out trying to get past the firemen.
Ben and Kevin gasped as they saw the entire house was burned.
Lance and Albedo were talking to Gwen who turned to see Ben.
" BEN! Thank goodness you guys are alright!"
Gwen hugged her cousin and greeted Kevin keeping a calm exprression.
" What's going on here?"
The firefighters scurried around like flies on garbage as they made sure the fire was put out for good.
" Me and Saundra were returning home from baby shopping and went to check on Lance and Albedo's house. When we got here, it was burning out of control and we managed to save some personal items, clothes, all the baby stuff and Lance's car."
Albedo and Lance waled around the ashes of what use to be their house.
" Why would someone burn our house down?"
Albedo wanted to cry because he loved this house so much and it was hard to find.
" This was a warning. Come look at this."
The four and Gwen walked toward Albedo and a saw a symbol burned into the grass.
It was a mix of Vilgax's and the Flame Keepers along with a message.
"If you value your lives, heed this warning and stay out of Diagon's way!"
" Fucker! He's crossed the line and beyond!"
" Looks like the final battle is about to begin."
Gwen knew this was bad, but one question came to mind.
" I didn't think it would happen this soon. I wonder where Lance and Albedo will live?"
Albedo was talking to what looked like an insurance man and Lance was sniffing through the debris.
He started digging in the center of where the house stood and unearthed an ornate wooden box.
Albedo came towards the team with a slip of paper and a sad expression.
" Well the good news is that our insurance covers this and the house will be rebuilt. Unfortunately it'll take 8 months to rebuild and we need to find a place to stay."
Albedo looked to Ben and Kevin, hoping they would help them out.
" Well good luck with that and I wish you guys all the luck you need."
Ben and Gwen glared at Kevin and Lance came by Albedo wondering about their situation."
" NONONONONONONONO AND HELL NO!"
" They have no where to go and they're our friends!"
Ben stated and he wasn't surprised to see Kevin react this way.
" We have two spare rooms not being used. What's the harm in helping them?"
Gwen knew they had the room, the big thing in the room was that Kevin and Lance hate each other.
" I can barely tolerate Lance in the same room. He won't be staying in my house."
" Your house? I need to talk to you NOW!"
Ben pulled Kevin away while Gwen chatted with the current house guests.
" I love you with everything I have, but why have them live with us?"
Kevin knew they needed help, but the thought of Lance being in his house was too much.
" Because it's the right thing to do and they have helped us with so much. I'll make it worth your while Kevy."
Ben traced his fingers along Kevin's chest and felt the muscles twitch slightly.
Kevin growled before grabbing Ben and giving him a breathe taking kiss.
Kevin released Ben and walked toward Gwen with a blank expression.
" We talked and you can stay with us until your house is done. NO more, NO less and you follow OUR rules!"
Albedo smiled as his stress level went down while Lance just had a blank expression.
" Thank you Kevin and we promise to behave right Lance?"
Lance growled as Albedo jabbed him and helped them move their stuff and Lance's car into the Rust Bucket 3.
Gwen giggled since she knew what Ben did to make Kevin agree.
Once the ship landed at Ben and Kevin's house, each of them were carrying boxes.
Gwen set up Kail and Alf in the room across from Devlin and Kenny.
She was relieved their baby stuff was saved and made sure they were asleep.
Lance and Albedo were setting up their temporary home in the room across from Ben and Kevin's bedroom.
Thank goodness Ben had the entire house soundproof, but was sad since the room was suppose to be a gaming room.
" I want to thank you both for helping us out."
" No problem, just making sure you guys are comfortable."
Gwen and Ben were helping their new house guests comfortable.
" Yeah well I need to work on my car so excuse me."
Kevin bumped into Ben's shoulder roughly before leaving the house in an angry mood.
Ben rubbed his shoulder before going after his husband only to be hugged by his mother and father.
She came to make sure Ben was alright since she was there with Gwen when the house was on fire.
Ben reassured his mother and asked his parents to watch the pups who agreed no problem before going after Kevin.
Gwen saw Kevin leave in hurry so she, Lance and Albedo got in Ben's car and followed Kevin.
Turns out Kevin had a storage place rented out for his weapons business and was currently making his car able to go under water.
Ben walked to see Kevin was under his car, putting something under the car and sighed.
" Did I do something wrong? Are you mad at me?"
" No. It's just I hate the fact that Lance is going to be living with us."
" It's just until their house is done. You know I love you and only you right?"
" Yeah I know. Sorry about bumping into you."
" No major damage, but I can make you feel better."
Before Kevin could ask, Ben skillfully unzipped Kevin's zipper and nuzzled Kevin's cock covered by his boxers.
Kevin dropped his wrench and moaned softly from the touch, making Ben smirk hearing the noise.
Ben pulled the boxers enough to free Kevin's cock and started to suck the tip.
Kevin harden quickly as Ben began to bob his head and hold Kevin's hips down.
Kevin rolled out from under the car and grabbed Ben's head.
Kevin looked at Ben with lust burning in his eyes and veins.
Kevin came with a howl and petted Ben's head as he was licked clean.
Ben sat back, panting with his eyes glazed and face flushed as Kevin redid himself before hugging Ben.
A lough cough interrupted the moment to reveal Gwen, Lance and Albedo at the door.
" Well now I know what Ben did to change Levin's mind."
" I was installing a part on my car to make go underwater."
" Oh I bet you were. Now can we go somewhere fun?"
" Let him finish installing whatever he was doing and then we can go.
Kevin smiles as he goes under the car with the part needed in hand.
Soon the Esoterica arrive surrounding the space and making Kevin roll out in front of Ben.
" Esoterica! It's an ambush!"
Ben activates the Ultramatrix and becomes Four Arms.
The Esoterica begin firing yellow energy blasts and Gwen makes a mana shield to shield the three.
Albedo and Lance fight off the ones outside to even the odds.
Ben and Kevin are doing good beating the intruders, but Gwen wants one of them captured which isn't easy.
Soon the Esoterica begin to leave when one is trapped in green mana.
Gwen and Kevin were shocked to see Ben in human form with green mana around his hands.
" I don't believe it, you unlocked your mana powers. Also they can't teleport through mana."
" Thanks Ben, but I can handle it here."
" Don't hurt him, we need to know why they attacked us."
" Start talking."
The captured Esoterica refused to talk so Kevin grabbed the part and pressed a button in which long metal spikes came out of it's sides.
It wrapped around the creature and Kevin shifted, baring his teeth and claws at the creature.
No response so Kevin turns on the machine and then the creature spills his guts out.
Turns out they are destroying those who stand in Diagon's way and they plan on bringing Diagon into this world.
" We'll do more than interfere. We're here to stop Diagon here and now!"
" I though you were giving George a chance."
" He had his chance Albedo. It's been two weeks."
The team goes to the Flame Keepers' Circle headquarters and find out that none of the members are there.
Ben transforms into Clockwork and uses his powers to show that they have all left to free Diagon.
" The seal is that big stone thing right?"
" That's the only thing keeping Diagon from coming into our dimension."
" That and us."
Meanwhile, we see Sir George is at the Area 51 fortress, rallying the Forever Knights to fight Diagon. When Ben, Gwen and Kevin arrive at the location of The Seal with the Rust Bucket 3, they find the Forever Knights and the Flame Keepers' Circle at war and neither side is winning.
Ben asks Kevin to land the Rust Bucket 3, who hesitates, but does so anyway.
Ben tries to tell the Knights that he is here to help but the Knights refuse to listen and attack them.
They force Ben and the team back into the Rust Bucket 3.
Gwen used her mana to keep them back, Lance and Albedo shifted.
They use their sonic howls to knock most of the knights back.
Kevin in his wolf form, absorbs metal and fights alongside Gwen, Lance and Albedo.
Ben used his mana to fight as well, but seems to be running out quickly.
Ben transforms into Goop to fight them since talking isn't working.
After a difficult fight they are able to defeat them with ease.
Gwen creates a mana shield at the door of the Rust Bucket 3, which was not closed, to prevent the other attacking Knights from coming in.
Gwen then senses Esoterica soldiers in the Rust Bucket, but still in between dimensions, watching the team without attacking.
Ben convinces Gwen to that they must leave the Rust Bucket, and Gwen uses her shield to push the Forever Knights out of the way, as Ben, Kevin and the others exit. Gwen uses her powers to point out where the Esoterica are entering this dimension, and Ben transforms into Fasttrack to knock them out before they can attack. Once that is finished, they proceed to the Seal, but realize that they cannot move through the many battles occurring to get there.
Meanwhile Sir George, Winston and other Forever Knights are approaching the Seal. As they get close, Winston informs Sir George that he will protect him.
While passing through the caves in which The Seal is set, they are attacked by Conduit Edwards, who fires an energy bolt at George while he isn't looking.
Winston jumps in front of George and takes the blast for turns around and attacks Edwards.
Edwards is moves between dimensions for a while, firing at George before George is able to stab Ascalon through Edwards, killing him.
George runs over to Winston, who tells him that it was an honor to be his squire, then dies.
George says that Winston died not a squire, but a knight, and that his death will not be in vain. He runs forth to the Seal.
George reaches the Seal and hears Diagon's voice. Diagon claims that he will rule this dimension and take over it.
The Seal cracks and Diagon lets out a minion of his, to destroy George.
This turns out to be Vilgax, who has been fused with a Lucubra and reborn with Diagon's power.
While this is going on, Kevin has an idea, and tells Gwen, Lance, Albedo and Ben to follow him.
They fight their way through, reaching several high-tech catapults that the Forever Knights are using.
" You're not thinking what I think you're thinking?"
" Yeah Ben get in! I'm thinking Cannonbolt."
" Alright, just make sure you stay alive and reach the seal unharmed."
" I've had your back this whole time and I plan to stay there for a very long time."
" If anything happens to me, I want you to know that I love you Kevin Ethan Levin, my one and only love."
Kevin faces Ben to remember his face in-case something happens and kisses him sweetly.
" I love you too Benjamin Kirby Tennyson, my true mate."
Ben gets in and shifts into his wolf form and the catapult launches him into the air.
Ben hits the Ultramatrix and becomes a wolfen Heatblast as he flies towards the seal.
" You know I should have teleported him there."
Meanwhile George and Vilgax are fighting each other and both seem to be evenly matched.
At this moment, Heatblast bursts through the ceiling of the cave and lands inside interrupting their fight.
" I shouldn't be surprised to see you here Vilgax. Guess you can't keep a good man down!"
" Tennyson. You've been my greatest adversary. It's only fitting that you should be here to witness my moment of triumph!"
Vilgax runs off into the darkness as Ben and George follow after him.
Ben looks in silence as he passes the dead bodies of Forever Knights.
They arrive to see Vilgax move forward towards the Seal and breaks it!
Though it remains intact and in place the cave wall around it crumbles and reveals Diagon's Dimension behind it.
