Hello Everybody! Btr100 over here with the 26th chapter of my story, Ben 10: The Faction Returns...
Well, I am currently reading Gwen's AU by Axle the Hedgehog, but it was too awesome for me and I have to go with my own story...
Random things: When I was still writing my story, Pokemon: The Championship Tournament, I remember author The Shiny Gengar saying that he checked out some Twilight stories (did not actually red them.) and his mind was blown by the THOUSAND/HUNDREDS of REVIEWS. I checked it out myself...my mind was blown.
He was not lying at all...
Disclaimer: (Why the Firetruck did I forgot this!?) I do not own Ben 10 or the Teen Titans, but if I did...I will remove Teen Titans GO! and replace it with the sequel of the original Teen Titans cartoon series.
And another thing, which I forgot again, give some credit to Jakevoronkov1! This is his idea! Thank him later after reading the chapter!
Peace!-Btr100
It was a normal day for the Teen Titans, no crimes, no trouble, no problems in the city or whatsoever, which gave them the chance to FINALLY relax for the day. Robin, Cyborg, Beast Boy and Ben were playing basketball, Starfire is making yet another one of her Tamaranean recipes. (Even I wouldn't eat that.) Raven, like always, is in her room, reading a book, while Terra is watching TV, waiting for Starfire to finish her cooking.
After two more hours, the boys were finished with their basketball game and they proceeded with lunch, which all of them except Ben and Terra hated because Starfire was the chef for the day (She was very intimidating..), and because of her kind and sweet-hearted nature, Starfire didn't notice. Even Raven wanted to puke.
Then, The Titans all played some games on the video game room Cyborg built three years ago. Beast Boy and Terra were playing on dual mode on a shooter game, Ben and Cyborg were playing VS. mode in a Sci-Fi/Action game, Starfire was playing a solo mode on an adventure game, with Robin teaching her how to play, and she was a fast learner, while Raven played by herself in a horror game.
Then, after all that, The Titans decided to go out, so now they were in the T-Car, headed for the beach.
But as they drove their way towards the beach, a laser blast hit the ground which caused rocks and dust to be sent flying, getting The Teen Titans by surprise and this caused Cyborg to swerve the T-Car to the right, before immediately stepping on the brakes, stopping the car before it hit the lamp post.
The Teen Titans then got out of the car, before looking to see a giant humanoid robot, with lots of laser cannons and turrets on its arms, with a size of over 30 feet tall. The Titans then prepared their powers: Cyborg turned his left hand into his signature sonic cannon, Beast Boy turned into a T-Rex, Starfire's eyes and hands glowed green, Raven's eyes glowed white and her hands were covered in a black aura, Terra's eyes and hands glowed yellow and a bunch of rocks were floating near her, Ben's Omnitrix glowed green and Robin took out his birdarangs.
"Seriously? Robots are TOO mainstream..." Ben said.
"Titans GO!" Robin shouted, and the Titans ran into action. Ben's body was then enveloped in green light, and his form began to change, beginning the transformation sequence.
(Ben's hair color was then turned into red, and he gained a green T-shirt with a black line going down, and he gained black pants. He then gained silver neck and arm plates and he then gained a silver belt similar to Starfire's and the Omnitrix symbol appeared. He then did a pose, before flying towards the screen, therefore ending the transformation sequence.)
"HeroFire! Here we GO!" the Tamaranean shouted, before flying into action.
The robot was currently battling Cyborg and Beast Boy, with Cyborg continuously firing his sonic beam at the robot, which sent it backwards at first, but now it was slowly advancing forward. Beast Boy, turned into a T-Rex, headbutted the robot into several buildings, before whipping the robot away using it's tail to send the robot backwards.
The robot then fired multiple missiles, but Beast Boy reacted quickly and changed into an eagle, before dodging all of the missiles and flying away. Cyborg then countered with missiles of his own, which managed to hit the robot, but the robot easily shrugged it off, before slamming its fists into the ground, sending a rock wave flying, but Cyborg jumped out of the way, the rock wave missing.
Terra then run towards the robot, before creating a board of rock and surfing through the air with her riding on it. Terra then raised her glowing hands in the air and a lot of rocks came out from the concrete streets, all floating above the robot. Terra then waved her hands down, the rocks then falling onto the robot's head with great force. The robot then fired a laser, but Terra quickly dodged it.
The laser was heading straight for Raven, but the sorceress blocked it off with a telekinetic shield, which then blocked the laser and even reflected it, sending the laser flying into the sky. Raven then telekinetically grabbed several cars, before throwing it at the robot, all cars hitting the non-sentient being, but it had no effect as well. The robot then fired a huge laser from its cannons, but Raven dodged it, the laser blast missing and hitting the road instead.
Starfire, carrying Robin, then flew her way towards the giant robot, before tossing Robin towards the robot, but the robot saw the attack and fired two missiles, but Robin countered by throwing two of his birdarangs which then collided with the missiles, causing a mid-air explosion. Robin, however, still made his way closer towards the robot, but when he got 5 feet too close to the robot, he was blown away by a force field created by the robot, and Robin was then flying back to the streets.
"Robin!" Starfire shouted in worry, before flying VERY quickly towards the robot, easily breaking the force field the robot made, and giving it a hard tackle, sending the robot crashing towards several buildings, before giving the robot several hard punches, but then the robot fired a quick and unexpected laser blast from its eye, sending Starfire back.
Starfire then fired an eye blast of her own, which sure sent the robot backwards in one, successful hit. Starfire then flew towards the non-sentient being once again, but it grabbed her with its giant hand and squeezed her tightly, sending her screaming in pain.
"AAHHH!" Starfire shouted in pain.
"Starfire!" HeroFire shouted, before tackling the robot hard, sending the robot stumbling backwards and freeing Starfire from its grip. HeroFire then punched the robot several times, before uppercutting it so hard that its head was sent flying off, sparks of electricity flying from the headless body. HeroFire's hands then glowed green, and he slammed his glowing fists on the robot so hard, that an explosion followed.
HeroFire then flew away from the smoke.
"Done and Done. Man I should use this form much more. This guy's great!" HeroFire said to himself as the Teen Titans walked over him, with Robin pulling out his communicator.
"Okay team, there's a lot more of trouble in Jump City, so we have to cancel our fun day at the beach. We have a lot more of these things all around the city." Robin said as the Titans each pulled out their communicator, Ben having to revert back to human and look at his Omnitrix.
Robin was right, as seven red dots were flashing all over the map.
"You know what to do! Titans GO!" Robin shouted, before the team jumped to action, with Beast Boy turning into a Pteranodon and flying away, Raven and Starfire doing the same, and Ben transformed himself into HeroFire and flying away. Terra then took out a rock board from the road, before flying away, and Cyborg and Robin then returned to the T-Car and they drove away.
HeroFire then arrived at the scene, and he saw the same robot, destroying things and scaring people away, only this time, HeroFire saw smaller robot troops and human soldiers at the scene as well, scaring people away while destroying everything in their sight.
"Okay. This needs to stop.." HeroFire said, as he fired multiple starbolts from his hands, each hitting a large number of the human and robot soldier troops and the human troops were sent flying, while the robot troops were easily dismantled and destroyed by HeroFire's starbolts. The remaining human and robot troops then fired multiple laser blasts at the Tamaranean, but he dodged them easily.
"Now, I've seen Starfire do this!" HeroFire said, before he tried firing a laser beam from his eyes, but it didn't work, much to his disappointment and confusement.
"What? I've seen Starfire do this! So..I'm gonna make it clear that it's her special ability." HeroFire said, before dodging more laser blasts from the human and robot army, and having to dodge a giant laser blast from the giant robot.
"Whatever. I can still improvise..." HeroFire sighed, before his hands glowed green and he quickly spun 360 degrees around and around, before he formed a green, glowing tornado. The giant robot then fired another laser blast, but HeroFire's "Starbolt Tornado" deflected the blast and instead it hit the remaining human soldiers and the remaining robot troops, knocking the human soldiers unconscious and destroying the robots.
After spinning madly, HeroFire then stopped spinning and he fired a green wave of starbolt energy, which then hit the robot and it was strong enough to send it stumbling backwards. HeroFire then fired multiple starbolts which sent the robot stumbling backwards.
"And due to my Faster-than-Light Flight, I wonder if I can improvise this..." HeroFire said, before flying quickly towards the robot's feet, before flying around the robot with maximum speed. As he was flying, HeroFire fired a starbeam into the air, and as he flew around the robot, the starbeam spun around the robot and the robot was soon inside a green glowing tornado, AKA the StarTornado.
"Hahaha! I can!" HeroFire said, before letting the StarTornado explode, causing dust and smoke to fly, with lots of robot pieces flying everywhere. HeroFire then quickly flew out of the smoke and landed on the ground, before transforming himself into:
"Jury Rigg!" the little gremlin-like alien shouted, before fixing all of the destroyed buildings quicker than you saying cheese! After Jury Rigg finished fixing the wreckage, he transformed himself into HeroFire again, before quickly flying away.
"This is one cool guy!" HeroFire said as he quickly arrived to the Titans Tower and he landed on the rooftop. He then attempted to revert back to his human form, and the usual green light enveloped his body, but once the green light was gone, Ben was still HeroFire, who then looked at himself, surprised on why he didn't revert back.
"Well...this is unusual...Great, The Omnitrix's busted, but atleast I'm stuck in an awesome form and NOT Rath..." HeroFire said as he walked his way towards The Main Operations Room, before jumping at the couch and turning on the TV. The other Titans were still battling their own robots, so Ben would have to wait. If they didn't come in 20 minutes, he's going to look for them.
As he changed through almost every channel in the TV, the Titans finally arrived, covered in soot and dirt while heavily panting, all except Starfire, who probably took out her robot quite easily. After all, her people are most resilient.
"Oh...hey guys.." HeroFire said as he jumped out of the couch and ran over to his exhausted friends.
"You know, you could have helped us out there. Not even Starfire was able to take all of them out that easily." Robin panted as he made his way to the refrigerator, took out a pitcher of cold-ice water and he poured it all over him, before drying it off quickly.
"Sorry guys, but I thought you could handle them on your own, but I told myself that if you aren't here by twenty minutes, I would have to find you." HeroFire said as the Titans all went to the couch.
"Ben. Why are you still in your Tamaranean form? Can't you change back?" Robin asked, drinking a glass of cold lemonade.
"I wish I could, but the Omnitrix somehow malfunctioned and I'm gonna be stuck like this for a little while until I can fix it." HeroFire said as he looked at the Omnitrix symbol on his belt. HeroFire then slapped it in an attempt to revert him back, but it didn't do a thing, nor it didn't say anything about what's happening to it. Ben found this strange..
"...Hmm...this may take a while." HeroFire said.
Since there were no more villain attacks after thirty minutes, The Teen Titans then continued their day of relaxation, only difference is with Ben having to be stuck as HeroFire for a little while. The Titans then went to the rooftop, playing another volleyball game, but with Raven uninterested, only coming to the rooftop to meditate. Raven doing that reminds Ben of Gwen.
HeroFire however, was in his room, trying to figure out a way to fix the Omnitrix back to normal..
"Omnitrix. Do you have any malfunctions?" Ben asked.
"Negative. Omnimatrix is working and functioning properly." the Omnitrix beeped.
"Huh? That's strange. But coming from the device invented by the smartest being in three to five galaxies, I would have to trust it. But if there's no malfunction, then why am I stuck as HeroFire? Unless HeroFire is undergoing...some weird Tamaranean body changing thing?" HeroFire said to himself, and he began to think.
Then, after a few minutes, a large lump suddenly appeared on his forehead. HeroFire was startled by this, before he touched it. The lump was softer than a pillow, so HeroFire began to play with it, but after a few minutes, HeroFire began thinking again.
"Hmm...maybe Starfire knows what's going on. She knows this kind of stuff. Maybe HeroFire caught some sort of Tamaranean body change and I'm pretty sure Starfire's gone through this." HeroFire said, before walking out of his room, not even thinking about the large lump on his forehead as disgusting or whatever.
He then walked over to Starfire's room and he knocked two times.
"You may wish to enter!" he heard Starfire say, and the door opened as HeroFire walked inside the room, finding Starfire petting both Silkie and Zed. When Starfire looked at HeroFire, she gasped for a bit, before HeroFire walked right next to her.
"Yeah. That's what I'm about to ask. Is this a normal part of the average Tamaranean's life?" HeroFire asked.
"Yes it is friend Ben. It is the Transformation or as you Humans call it, the Puberty for the Tamaraneans." Starfire replied, before giving Silkie another pat on the head, earning a coo from the larva-like creature. HeroFire then smiled and chuckled.
"But your transformation is like mine. A different one from all other Tamaraneans. You are soon going to be Chrysalis, and you will be vulnerable to an attack, because you will be trapped in a cocoon. It can be opened, yes, and once you get freed, you will have a new Tamaranean power. Shooting star energy from my eyes is my new ability thanks to my transformation. It was also Blackfire's new ability." Starfire said.
"Mmm..okay. Well, thanks anyway." HeroFire said, before walking away from the room.
BTR100: (shows timecard) Day 2 of the Transformation...(looks at his study table) Go home homework, You are done.
HeroFire was eating lunch with his friends. He was eating fried steak along with Cyborg. They made it together as well. While eating, two tusks suddenly appeared on his neck, startling Cyborg and Terra from eating their food. HeroFire then noticed and began to strum it like a guitar. He then started strumming it to the tune of the Teen Titans theme song.
His friends just looked at him, all of them having their jaws opened wide.
BTR100: (shows timecard) Day 3 of the Transformation...(looks at the TV.) Oh sweet! Spongebob!
HeroFire is currently inside the training room with the others. HeroFire was weightlifting with one hand, the machine giving out the 9th pad to add the weight, but HeroFire didn't struggled the slightest to lift the weight with one hand. When the machine gave out the tenth pad to add the weight, HeroFire still didn't struggle and was still carrying it with one hand. HeroFire then attempted to lift it using the tip of his fingers, but then he looked up to see the machine giving out sparks of electricity, before it exploded, mechanical pieces flying everywhere.
When the smoke and dust cleared, the Titans then looked to see WildFire standing awkwardly at his spot. He then looked at his hands, to see long, pointy and sharp fingernails AKA claws...
"Woah...these claws rock!" HeroFire said.
Beast Boy: Dear diary, my crush just friendzoned me for another guy...AND THAT GUY IS MY BEST FRIEND! Now, I have no other choice, but to-
BTR100: HEY! THAT'S MY DIARY!
Beast Boy: Oh no...
HeroFire then opened the fridge, looking for edible food, since he has to eat steel and metal for a mission, which includes eating Dr. Light's machine made out of obviously durable metal, and none of the Titans' attacks worked on it. HeroFire, however, improvised by literally EATING the machine, but even he hate his improvisation. He was even surprised that he managed to eat the entire machine, he never even knew how a Tamaranean's stomach works!
But then again, the acid in the human stomach can be strong enough to dissolve or corrode steel (IDK, I just saw it and remembered it.), research says.
Then HeroFire saw a fly, but then without him even knowing it, he killed the fly, before eating it. HeroFire then suddenly noticed what he just did and he strangely enjoyed it as much as he enjoyed Mr. Smoothies in Steak Flavor...
"That was gross...but strangely delicious..." HeroFire said.
A timecard showing: (Please leave me alone, I'm playing piano and I don't wanna be disturbed. Day 5 of the Transformation.)
HeroFire then walked into his room, before sitting down on his study table to read a comic book, but then he felt, before seeing his ears turned pointy, his skin turning scaly much of that of an average fish, and his feet grew to the size of Bigfoot's which destroyed his boots. It was hairy too.
"Okay, I may not be totally disgusted by this, but this is getting out of hand!" HeroFire said, before the Titans alarm went off.
"Oh great...Well, It can't hurt to improvise one more move..." HeroFire said as he looked at his hideous body..
Meanwhile, outside the Bank of Perez, an explosion then occurred, coming out of the bank. Out of the dust and smoke was the HIVE Five, each member holding bags full of money, in Billy Numerous' case, holding ten bags thanks to his clones.
"Oh yeah boys! We're rich!" Gizmo said, before multiple starbolts, rocks and a blue energy laser beam almost hit them, but the HIVE Five evaded the attacks, before looking up to see the Teen Titans in the rooftop.
"So the scumbag Teen Titans returned to stop us. Where's that loser Ben Tennyson of yours?" Gizmo said.
"Over here fellas." a voice said, and the HIVE Five turned around, but when they did, they just made the biggest mistake of their entire villainous lives. They screamed in horror and agony as they saw HeroFire's new look. Even Kid Wykkyd screamed in fear.
All of them then turned as white as the clouds, before they were so scared that they were knocked unconscious, dropping their bags of loot.
HeroFire then looked at the unconscious HIVE, before looking at his teammates.
"I told you they would be scared because of this!" HeroFire shouted.
"Oh friend Ben! I almost told you, when you are finally finished with the Transformation, you will be vulnerable to an attack of a Cironielian Chrysalis Eater." Starfire said.
"Did you say Cironielian Chrysalis Eater!?" HeroFire asked.
"Most certainly. Why did you ask?" Starfire replied.
"Well, I faced one in my dimension too. Pretty tough to beat." HeroFire said.
As the Teen Titans talked to each other, a strange alien then appeared on the rooftop on the building in front of the Titans. It had crab-like legs and large pincers, with a humanoid body, similar to SonicFlame's build. The alien then roared loudly, before jumping off the rooftop and landing in front of the Teen Titans, standing between them is her prey.
The Teen Titans then looked to see the Cironielian Chrysalis Eater, standing ferociously, roaring loudly.
"Ah. Another Tamaranean undergoing the Chrysalis Transformation. When this is all over, you'll all be my dinner, with you (points at HeroFire) will be the main dish!" the Chrysalis Eater shouted, before roaring loudly, raising her pincers in the air.
"One problem with that, crabby. You'll have to weaken me first." HeroFire said, before firing a large green beam of star energy from his hands, which then hit the Chrysalis Eater and sent her flying on the building in front of the Titans. HeroFire then slammed his right fist on the ground, causing a wave of rocks to go towards and hit the building, and when it did, the building collapsed, sending rocks and dust flying everywhere.
"Like all predators do to their prey." HeroFire said, as the Chrysalis Eater emerged from the heap of rocks, before roaring loudly.
HeroFire then formed a starbolt between his hands, before making it large as he raised his arms. He then looked at his arms to see green-like veins appearing on his arms. Acting quickly, HeroFire then threw the large starbolt, hitting the Chrysalis Eater and exploding on contact, sending the Chrysalis Eater flying and skidding at the streets.
A quick second later, a cocoon formed all over HeroFire's body, his face being the only part visible.
"Oh great." HeroFire muttered, as the Titans looked to see the Chrysalis Eater stand up, roaring loudly, before charging towards them. Robin then threw his explosive discs, Cyborg fired his sonic blast, Starfire fired her starbolts, Terra fired multiple rocks and Raven and Beast Boy as a gorilla threw multiple cars at her, all of them hitting her and causing an explosion which sent her back.
"You fools! You're only delaying your faith!" The Chrysalis Eater shouted, before raising her pincer in the air, and slamming it into the ground, causing a rock wave which sent the Titans flying. The Chrysalis Eater then charged towards the vulnerable HeroFire, but then Terra fired a rock at her, before Cyborg and Beast Boy as a sasquatch grabbed hold of her, which was strong enough to sent her her struggling.
"Starfire! Now!" Cyborg shouted, as he tightened her grip on the chrysalis consuming alien.
Starfire then ran towards HeroFire, before easily freeing him from the cocoon. HeroFire then emerged out, looking good as new. He then looked at himself with no Tamaranean transformation conditions.
"Alright! Time to see what I can do!" HeroFire said, but then the Chrysalis Eater freed herself from Cyborg and green gorilla BB, throwing them away, before charging towards HeroFire and grabbing hold of him, before tightening the grip, squeezing the Tamaranean.
"Hey...GET. OFF OF ME!" HeroFire angrily shouted, before his body glowed green, which proven to be so hot, that the Chrysalis Eater was forced to let go of him. HeroFire then looked at his glowing body, before smiling.
"Woohoo! This is great! Time to use this to full potential!" HeroFire said, before the green energy projected out of him in the form of a humanoid. HeroFire smirked, before the star energy humanoid charged at the Chrysalis Eater and punched her, exploding on contact and sending the chrysalis consuming alien flying.
HeroFire's left hand then glowed green, before he projected star energy as a large green hand, before he grabbed the Chrysalis Eater with it, and threw her into the sky so hard, that she was sent flying into space. HeroFire, using his flight faster than light, quickly followed after the Chrysalis Eater, before transforming himself into:
"Big Chill!" the Necrofriggian shouted, before freezing the Chrysalis Eater, leaving her floating in the void of endless space.
Big Chill then flew back to Earth and landed back to the city, in front of the Titans, before reverting back to his human self again.
"Ahh...it's nice seeing my old self again." Ben said.
"Now, let's continue our day of relaxation back at the Tower!" Cyborg happily shouted, but then the Titans' Communicators began beeping. Robin then took out his communicator and saw a scene of the same robots from 5 days ago.
"Trouble." Robin said.
"Aw man! I thought the superhero life would be easy! But I did not expect it to be THIS hard! Why can't it be EASY!?" Beast Boy shouted. Ben just smiled.
"It never is..."
Well, everything is not easy...
Well, that's all for this chapter! Please just give ONE review! Is that too much to ask? Atleast it's better than Private Messaging a random author and saying: "Hey! It's BTR100, PLEASE REVIEW MY STORY!"
Anyways, see you in the next chapter!
Peace!-Btr100
