A Spy's Life Reboot EP 31: Dan and Ben again
I don't own anything except my OCs. Just a heads up, my Ben will use his middle name to not get confused with Ben Prime.
At the Smoothie Shack, Ben, as Fasttrack, is in hot water already as he ran around and avoid purple lasers, all over the parking lot. Fasttrack came a stop as he cries out. "Seriously?" He dodges a few bolts as he crosses his arms. "Your name is Eon? As in E-yawn? Talk about lame, dude!" Fasttrack took off as he kept running around his foe: An adult male dressed in a black and purple and sliver jumpsuit with matching trench coat and a strange device on his left gauntlet. The being has a matching helmet with a purple see-through visor, revealing his grey skin, black lips and eyes.
Eon felt his coat blowing in the wind as purple energy surges in his fists. "Your juvenile taunts won't save you this time, Ben Tennyson." "Saving me from what?" Fasttrack quips as he speed punches him away as the alien hero crossed his arms. "I'm not some helpless scaredy cat, dude! I can handle myself." Eon recovers as he fires more energy rays as Fasttrack charges, narrowly dodging each one with his fast reflexes as he uses his arm blades to slice at Eon, cutting part of his trench coat as he notices with a frown.
"Besides! You can't even lay a finger on me!" The alien smirks as he slides to a stop with his hand on the ground as Eon points out with his own smirk. "I don't have to. Time is on my side!" Fasttrack charges at him as Eon dodges like a bullfighter, just for Ben to crash into a tow truck and pulls himself out, only for some strange reason, he is now one of his old aliens, Diamondhead. "What? No weird time rays or whatever? Not your usually style, Eon."
"The only thing predictable about me. Is that I'm unpredictable!" Eon cries out as he drew a handle that creates a purple energy blade and swung but was blocked by a forearm as Diamondhead smirks out. "Unpredictable, but lame. Now this is a sword!" He cries out as he forms his left arm into a sword and clashed blades with Eon, sword fighting as they spun around, just form him to kick Diamondhead away.
In a split-screen, both aliens slide back, just for the 2 to time out! While the right side reveals the kid alien hero, the other shows a 16-year-old teen that looks like an older version of Ben, except no skull cap, wearing a similar T-shirt with just a single green stripe and white 10. He has no necklace and brown cargo pants with green and white sneakers. Even his Omnitrix looks different as it looks more like a sleek watch with a square faceplate with 2 green lines acting as the Hourglass symbol.
"AH-HA! Just what I was waiting for!" Eon declares as 2 of him simultaneously grab both the boy's watches, just for green energy to burst out as both male heroes were confused! ZAP Ben cries out as he was sent flying back, sliding to a stop as he groans and rubs his head. "I don't know what that was all about. But now it's my turn!" Ben declares as he stood back up, only his voice is different now!
Intro:
The screen is black, only for a bolt of green lightning to makes a flash of white light as upbeat music is heard.
Ben stands as he is smirking at the camera as a black with green bubbles background is behind the tween, making the boy raise both his arms and shows off his new Omnitrix and then slaps down with a grin, making a flash of light.
"BEN 10!"
"He's a kid and he wants to have fun!"
Shock Rock with his fists on hips and a smirk appears as a close-up of his face shows up in the background as a bolt of lightning comes down.
Big Chill flies across and freezes as the same thing happens to Rath, leaping out of an explosion.
"But when you need a superhero, he gets the job done!"
"BEN 10!"
Shocksquatch yells out as he smashes his fists together, sending out waves of yellow electricity that hits the 4th wall.
"With A device that he wears on his arm."
"He can change his shape and save the world from harm!"
Ben poses with his Omnitrix, just as headshots of Shock Rock, Water Hazard, Swampfire and Crashhopper show up, one-by-one.
Raptor-Rang was staring at Slapback, who danced along a bunch of platforms with the watch symbol on it as the dino alien just watched while scratching his head.
"When trouble's taking place."
Ben was then running towards the screen.
"He gets right in it's face!"
"BEN 10!"
Humungousaur, Grey Matter, Fasttrack and Gravattack's headshots show up as well!
A green circuit board background is shown as 7 aliens show up in a row as Ben was staring at the 4th wall as his right side is shown. The aliens are Shock Rock, Fasttrack, Ripjaws, Rath, Swampfire, Gravattack and 4 Slapbacks.
"When lives are on the line."
The same thing happens with his left side as more aliens appear. The aliens are now: Big Chill, Water Hazard, Raptor-Rang, Grey Matter, Humungousaur, Crashhopper and Upgrade.
"It's hero time!"
"BEN 10!"
It ends with Ben and Alex, standing side to side with crossed arms and smirks as well as Normie and Madison on Ben's side and in there suits and Sam and Clover on Alex's side the title appears above.
As 'Ben' is about to slap on the Omnitrix, he notices the design as he raised an eyebrow. "What's with you, new Omnitrix? 1st, you won't turn me into the aliens I ask for, and now you're trying to go with a retro look with a new color and style? Dude! You better still work." The boy mumbles out as he notices the arrow button and pushed it, making the dial pop up with a beep as he slaps it down. FLASH
Slapback looks at himself in confusion. "What the? Who's this guy?" The alien glances at his body, poking at his arm and looks behind him, making him ponder out. "Hmm… Maybe he's another brawler!" Slapback charges at Eon. But the villain merely just blasted a Time ray in front that sent Slapback flying and crashed against a wall, splitting into 2.
"Okay… That was not a smart idea." "Tell me about it." They both glanced at each other in surprise. "Whoa! Another cloner?" "But how did we split?" Slapback #2 places his hand on his back, only to be shocked when #1 glows green and splits into #3 and #4! "Whoa! How did you do that?!" "It happened when he touched our back." #4 realizes as he did the same with #3, splitting him into #5 and #6.
"Sweet!" They all then hit each other in the back and split into all 8 Slapbacks. "Guess we can't clone anymore." "But now we're only a couple of inches shorter then Ditto!" "Guys! Check this out!" Slapback #4 cries out as he demonstrates his amazing strength with an empty bus. "I can lift this bus with just one hand! I think every time we clone ourselves, we get stronger and stronger!" "That's good enough for us!" Slapback #1 grins as they all charge at their enemy.
All Slapbacks charged at Eon and leaps up, dogpiling him as they pound away at the guy, only for him to vanish. "Where did he go?" "Beats me." "Don't suppose we pummeled him to oblivion?" "Whatever, man. At least we got rid of him." "And we got a new alien in the process! Score one for the little hard guys!" The Slapbacks all celebrate, giving cheers and Hi-threes at their victory.
"Ben!" They all glanced back to see Alex and Madison ran up to them. "Are you okay, bro?" "Bro?" "Who…" "The heck…" "Are you?" Alex raises an eyebrow as the Slapbacks times out and reverts to human. 'Ben' glances at himself and cries out. "How am I a little kid?!" "What are you talking about? You are a kid! You're 11." "No, I'm not! I mean. I was 11, but now I'm a teenager!" Maddie raises an eyebrow at the boy's odd behavior. "Okay… Is this some sort of prank? Because if it is, it's not very good."
"Ben? Are you okay? Do you have a fever?" Alex asks as she presses her hand's back on the boy's forehead. "No! I don't have a fever! I don't even know who you are!" Alex frowns out as she stands up. "His voice does sound different, Maddie. Maybe this kid isn't the boy we know." "Then, if this isn't our Ben, then where is he?" The older Ben ponders that as well. "Well, wherever he is, he's probably freaking out."
"This is so cool!" The younger Ben grins out, looking at his new bigger body as he examines himself. "Now I can go on all the rides at the Amusement Park! And access to PG-13 movies, awesome!" Kid Ben grins out as he rubs his hands in thought. Just then, a voice he has not heard for a while rings his ears. "Ben? Are you okay?" Kid Ben looks back and is surprised at seeing Grandpa Max, right in front of him as he smiles out. "GRANDPA!" He hugs the big guy, much to his confusion. "I miss you so much! It's been months since I last saw you!"
"Months? Ben, you just saw me this morning." "Ben? Are you okay? Your voice sound strange." The alternate Ben looks over to see a tall, blue and white skin alien with yellow eyes with red pupils, black markings on his head and pointed ears. He is wearing blue and black form fitting armor with pouches on his waist, thighs and forearms. He lastly carries a strange device on his left shoulder.
"Get back, grandpa!" The boy in a teen's body threw himself in between the alien and his grandfather as he holds his hand above his left wrist, ready to transform. "Who are?! Are you a good or bad guy? How do you know my name?" "Easy, Ben. You must have taken a clonk to the noggin." The boy glance back and notices Grandpa's attire is different. "Grandpa! What's with the cyborg soldier look?"
"Interesting." All eyes turn to the pillar of purple light as Eon emerges with a smile. "A cross-dimension consistence inversion. Not the effect I was going for, but it should produce the desire results." "You're still here, you pale face freak? We'll see about..." He notices his new Omnitrix as he got a big grin, taping on the faceplate to display a Holo-ring of alien heads, some he recognizes. "New Omnitrix!? Sweet! All these aliens are mine? And I get my old guys back as well!? Best day ever!"
"Where is Paradox?!" Kid Ben glances up in confusions as he replies. "Para-what?" "The Time traveling Busybody, who shows up whenever you make a mess of the Timestream!" "Never heard or met him, dude." The boy shrugs out as Eon sighs out with rolled eyes. "Of course not. You haven't met Paradox. He'll go to the other one." He then disappears in a flash of purple energy as Young Ben scratches his head in confusion. "Who the heck is Paradox?"
Back with Teen Ben, he has finished explaining things to Maddie and Alex. "I get it! So, you're like our Ben, but you have a different middle name and 5 years older than him, as well have done events similar to him, but with some differences." "Yeah! You know, you're as smart as my cousin Gwen, Madison." Ben smiles out. "Thanks! You know, my Ben said that Sam might be the counterpart of Kate… Uh… I mean, Gwen in my universe." "What about me? Is there a counterpart of me in your universe too?" Alex smiles out with starry eyes as Ben is unsure how to respond. "I'm… not sure. I kind of need help on that one." "If it's help you need, then I came to the right place at the right time."
They all glanced over to see a man that looks to be around 40 and has black hair, grey eyes, and fair skin. He wore a white lab coat over a white shirt with a brown vest and black tie, black pants, and black shoes. He also wore goggles with green lenses around his neck. He carries a cane that has an eye on the top. "Professor Paradox? Why did you go retro from your Steampunk makeover? And when did you regrew a new arm?" "Apologizes, Benjamine. But I'm not the Paradox you know. Remember when you 1st met me, or rather your version of me?" Ben ponders at his memories as it took him a while "I get it… You're a parallel Paradox." "Correct! Glad to see this Young Master Tennyson is sharp as a tack."
"Uh…. Ben? Who's this old guy?" Madison scratches her head in confusion as Alex points her thumb at him. "Friend of yours?" "My apologies, Miss Vasquez. It seems I have you at a disadvantage. Or rather, will have you at a disadvantage. Time travel and cross-dimensional travel are both tricky business and can make verb tenses so confusing. I am Professor Paradox, for reasons we don't need to go into. Ben, a word in private." Ben moves away from the girls as Paradox knees down and spoke softly to Ben to keep it on the down low.
"Time is of the essence, so I'll be brief. I'm a Paradox who watches over the counterpart of you that has swapped places, as well as his own counterparts, throughout the infinite Omniverse. Eon ambushed your Paradox in attempt to overpower him and then rule all of space and time in every existence and reality. I managed to noticed what happened and assisted the Prime Paradox, defeating Eon and trapping him between this timeline and the Ben Prime Timeline, your world, in layman's term."
Ben then smiles as he hopes this Paradox can fully stop Eon. "And you can still stop Eon?" "Yes and no." Ben frowns at the answer as Paradox explains more. "Although Eon can still move freely in between the 2 timelines I trapped him in, he's powerless to access any other timeline or reality." "That's a good thing, right?" "Yes… But the key to his freedom is my pocket watch. The Chrono-Navigator." "Yeah… My Paradox talked about it. Like a GPA for the Multiverse. But it was a robot arm for him." "Yes… I managed to disguise my Chrono-Navigator as something else as well. Hidden so that Eon won't find it, but you need to protect it all cost. Do you understand?"
Suddenly, Eon shows up as he demands from the Time Walker with snarl. "The Chrono-Navigator. Give it to me, Time Walker!" "You know very well that is never going to happen." Paradox frowns out as Eon drew his blade in response. "Then I'll just have to take it from you." The 2 time-travelers clashed weapons as Paradox palm thrust Eon in the chest and chased after.
Ben was about to use the Omnitrix, but Paradox cried out. "No, Ben! This is not your fight." Eon shoves Paradox to the ground as the man tried to use his cane, but the evil Time-Walker slaps it out of his hand and lands near Ben's feet. "Do what you want, Eon. You will never get the device you seek." "Time will tell." Eon smirks out in response. "Don't worry, Ben! I'm sure you have the well important matters in hand!" As Ben and the girls watch in shock, Eon took Paradox away as all that remains is the Professor's cane. "Well in hand…" Ben frowns as he gazes down.
Back with Kid Ben, who after some talking, decides to be called by his middle name to not get confused with Teen Ben and decides to go by Dan. Dan gazes around in awe at the secret Plumber base, that is right underneath Bellwood itself! "I can't believe there's a secret Plumber base, right under my home town this whole time! This is so awesome! Hey! What's this thing do?" Dan points at a piece of tech as 2 Galvins named Blukic and Driba got worried. "I wouldn't touch that If I were you." A briefly alarm rang out from another button Dan pushed. "Or that." "What's that one do?" "Definitely not that!"
"Dan. If you would just sit still, we can figure out what is wrong with you." Rook tries to calm the 11-year-old in a 16-year old's body. "Dude. I already told you what happened and with that Eon creep. I'm totally fine! Besides, I'm glad that I'm finally back in Bellwood after all this time! Maybe I should check up on Mom and Dad as well!"
Max approaches the 2 as states the situation. "There's obviously something wrong with this picture! He's… where did he go?" "Not again." Rook groans out from losing Dan. Just then, a computer voice is heard. "Core jettison in T-Minus 10… 9…" "Dan!" Max frowns out as he spots Dan over by the panel as he got worried. Luckly, Max came over and presses a key, stopping the core as he frowns at his grandson. "So… Does this computer have 'Smash Badger 5' by any chance?" Silence was met as Dan leans into his hands in boredom.
"I'm going to need you to look after him until we figure out what to do." Rook responds to Max's order as he gestures to Dan. "My apologizes, Magister Tennyson. I have barely learned how to deal with Teenage Ben. Not this new child-like-mind. And it is clear we are in fact dealing with an alternate version of Ben instead of just his past self. Is there anyone else who has experience with dealing with a child version of Ben?" "I do." A voice echoes from the doorway to the lab as they turn to see a teen girl with short red hair, freckles and green eyes, cat-like glasses and dressed in blue.
Max and Rook had just finished explaining everything to Gwen as she questions out. "So…. A young counterpart of Ben had his mind swapped with our Ben?" "You know, you kind of remind me of my friend, Sam. She's a total know it all like you!" Dan grins out as he crossed his arms as Gwen snaps back. "And you're a totally doof—" She stops herself as she took a deep breath and tries to cool down. "Easy Gwen. You are above these childish taunts."
"Na-na-na-na!" Dan starts making fun of her as Gwen rolls her eyes. "I still do not understand why you are here, Gwen?" Rook asks as the teen replies. "I was busy studying some of my magic books when I felt some sort of disturbance in the dimensional barriers. I almost brushed it off, but it felt too weird to be ignored. So, I tracked it to the PLUMBER base. And 'Dan' here is apparently the source."
As Dan accidentally knocks over a drink while taunting, he cries out. "I didn't do it! No, seriously. I didn't do anything to cause this. I was fighting some dude shooting lasers at me. And the next thing I know, he grabs my watch and then boom! I'm here and taller." "Not much information to go on…" Max mumbles out as he scratches his chin. "Do you know anything else?' Rook as Gwen as she replies out. "Nothing… But we can try the place where this all started: Mr. Smoothy's" "Mr. Smoothy's? Sweet! Hey! Think I can get one while we're there?" Dan notices the surprise look from Grandpa Max and Gwen as he asked out. "What? Do I have a zit on my forehead?" "This is defiantly not our Ben." "Yeah…. Ben hated Smoothies when he was 11." Max adds out
Meanwhile, at the end of time itself, Eon is interrogating a captured Paradox, who is bounded by energy shackles, attached to a ring machine. "You are a timid fool, Paradox. Just because you never took full advantage of the Chrono-Navigator's power, doesn't mean I won't." But the man kept smiling as he explains to Eon. "Yes, but If anyone else's hands but mine uses the device, it can cause untold permanent damage to the Time Stream, or destroy all of time itself through every existence. In any case, I can't give you the Chrono-Navigator, even If I wish to do so. Because I don't have it." Paradox slightly chuckles out as Eon narrows his black eyes at the man.
"No, you don't… You are many things Paradox, just like the prime one, but a liar, you are not." "Precisely. Now, if you could be so kind enough to loosen these shackles, I'll be on my way." "What's the rush?" Eon replies as he walks away with his hands behind him. "We have all the time in the world."
Back with Dan, he, Gwen and Rook drove to the Proto-Truck to Mr. Smoothy's. "So, Ben likes Mr. Smoothy's and hangs out here?" "Yeah! Him, me and Kevin." "Kevin?" Dan ponders out. "He's a still good guy in this dimension? That's a relief." "Yeah. But we me and my Ben didn't have a good first impression when we met him as kids, but he really turned himself around. Did your Kevin absorbed energy and still evil?" Gwen asks as Ben responds. "Uhh... Kind of. It's a long, complicated story." The 11-year-old isn't sure how to explain the deal with Kevin and the Antitrix.
Rook then spoke out. "By the way, Gwendolyn, how are your studies with Professor Hex doing?" "Wait! Professor Hex?! As in Hex the crazed evil wizard that tried to destroy me and my version of you during that fateful Summer with Grandpa Max?! He's your teacher now!?" "Yes! But he's changed! He's a good guy now." Gwen tries to calm the 11-year-old teen down as he cries out. "Unbelievable! What's next!? Charmcaster is your roommate now?!" But Gwen kept quiet as she is not sure how to explain to Dan about her Charmcaster.
They all climb out as they stood in front of the drink store. "Here we are. Now what?" "I'm not sure." Gwen asks out as Dan butt heads with the girl as his rivalry with his bio-sister ignites in the alternate counterpart of Kate. "Maybe you should ask 'Professor Hex' for some help?" "Maybe you should stop being a doofus?" "Dweeb!" As both humans growled and butted heads with each other, Rook was about to scan the area for clue, just as a purple glow from the bottom of a light pole caught their attention. They all glanced down as they saw some sort of strange purple glowing light appear at the bottom and fade away. "Hey! Pokémon Stickers!" Dan grins out at the stickers of Chimchar, Monferno and Infernape, stuck at the bottom. "It's Chimchar and his evolution line!" "Edged right into the metal. What could have done this?" Rook breaths out. "Dan?"
"Don't look at me! I didn't do this!" Dan replies as Gwen states. "Maybe our Ben did this! He must have found a way to communicate with our world from Dan's world by crossing the trans-dimensional time barrier or something." Gwen then groans out with a frustrated look "Paradox is right! This time travel and dimension hopping business can be so confusing!" That name struck a memory in Dan as he spoke to the girl. "Paradox? Isn't that the name that Eon dude I was fighting was looking for?" "Wait!" Gwen cries out in shock. "You saw and fought Eon?!"
"You must have used the Chrono-Navigator to get to the alternate young Tennyson." Eon spoke out as he stands in front of Paradox. "So, what do you have then, that you don't have now?" Eon ponders that question himself as he recalls everything about Paradox. Even his last fight with him when he used his blade against his… cane. Eon's eyes widened in realization. "Of course… The cane. Clever… Very clever fusing your watch with your cane." "Nothing gets by you, does it?" Paradox retorts as Eon declares. "Now that I know where it is, I'll just simply return to the moment where I knocked your cane away from your grasp and retrieve it."
"With 2 Time-Travelers already there? Plus, both Bens' condition and not to mention the walls between both realities un-stabilized? You are well aware the fabric of Space-Time is already stretched dangerously thin at that particularly moment." Eon narrows at the warning form the Professor as the man continues. "If you go back there now, you can cause a rupture and be lost outside of time altogether."
"Hmm… That is true. But there is another way." Eon replies as Paradox got a worried look as he watches Eon teleports away. Paradox can't help but feel like Eon knows something he doesn't. Something bad.
"There is something else on this vertical structure." "What?" Both humans asked the alien as he points at the top of the pole. "I got this!" Dan grins out as he slaps down on the Omnitrix and transforms into Diamondhead. "Diamondhead! It's been why too long." He smiles out at seeing one of his favorite aliens in a long time. He then creates a pillar to ride up on to the top of the pole. "Anything?" "There's some numbers up here!" The alien replies to Gwen as he reads it loud. "35.35.—118.96 And some made up word I have no idea what it means. 'Armodrillo'?"
"35 point…' Those are map coordinates. Of the old, abandoned Sewer System." Rook realizes as he gazes at his scanner, entering the coordinates as Gwen asks out. "Let me guess, abandoned in Dan's world?" "Here, it is in the middle of Undertown." "'Undertown?'" Diamondhead retracts the crystal pillar as he asked. "What's an Undertown?"
"Okay! This is so awesome and cool at the same time!" Dan grins out the discovery of a huge, hidden alien city right underneath Bellwood as the truck parks in front of a store called 'Pakmar's fine teas.' They all went inside and looks around. "Hello? Mr. Pakmar?" Dan cries out. "Oh, no! No! No! no! No!" A small, light green alien cry out as he ran up and frowns at Dan. "There will be no destroying of Pakmar's place, today! Ben Tennyson is not welcome here!" "Sheesh… What did your Ben do to make this little guy angry?" Dan asks Gwen as she replies. "You don't want to know." "Mr. Pakmar, sir." Rook calmly spoke to the shop owner. "We just need access to the basement. Plumber business. I assure you; no harm will come to your establishment." Pakmar sighs out. "Pakmar's heard that one before."
The trio made to the basement as Pakmar watch as Rook scans the area. "This is the place." Rook conforms his findings as Dan states out. "So, we just need to find that Armodrillo thing in here, right? What does it look like?" He looks around as Rook explains to the boy in a teenager's body. "Actually, Armodrillo is one of your aliens." Dan sheepishly grins as he taps on the Omnitrix and slaps down on the watch, transforming into a 10-foot tall yellow armored, robotic-like alien that looks like an armadillo with bolts on his shoulders and jackhammers for arms with clawed hands and feet with the Omnitrix on his chest.
"So, what can he do?" "Armodrillo is a natural born digger and can drill into any type of Earth Material with the jackhammers in his arms." "Awesome!" Armodrillo starts digging and drilling away as he went under and shook the place up, knocking some valuables over that shattered on the ground. "You just had to answer him?" Gwen frowns at Rook after the shaking stopped. "HEY!" They all glanced down at the large hole as Dan's voice can be heard. "I found more numbers on this pipe I hit! 1—" CLANK "Uhh… We might want to run now."
Gwen and Rook ran back into the van as Dan follows while screaming out, sealing himself in as a wave of water came crashing out of the tea shop and over the truck as Pakmar crashes into the windshield. "Pakmar will send you the bill… again." He groans out as he slides downward in a pained fashion.
The trio were back on the road in the truck as Gwen types on her laptop as Dan chills. "These are more coordinates, all right! Not far from here." Rook asks out as they got closer to the next location. "So, you think Ben left clues for Dan here to find, via the weakening walls between the worlds. Why?" "It's like a mystery!" Dan grins out. "Like the time me and my friends were investigating missing people from a subway, only to do battle against an ancient evil dragon that's been feeding on people's life force for a thousand years! Or the time we tracked down a chaos beast that would have totally turned the world topsey-turvey!" Gwen stares at Dan as she asks out. "What kind of world do you come from?" "One of a kind."
All over town, Dan kept using aliens as the trio kept finding more clues in places all around the city. Dan used a slimy, green alien named Goop to retrieve a piece from a Gas Station's restroom sink, though Gwen was totally disgusted by it.
An alien locked in a large suit of armor named NRG retrieves another piece in a nuclear reactor as NRG exits out and shows it to Gwen and Rook.
Gwen and Rook look up a tall building as a 4-armed monkey like alien with extra eyes and blue fur, bungies down in front of the 2 on a strand of web with a grin and monkey screech as Spidermonkey chuckles out. He then dangles another clue of his tail through a strain of spider web off his tail.
Wildmutt is sniffing around an empty lot until he caught whiff of something, digging it up as he retrieves the next piece in his mouth.
"Are you sure these are the coordinates?" "That's what's written on the last clue! So absolutely, positive!" Dan grins out to Gwen as Rook notices the stop and frowns out. "This cannot be right." Rook stops the truck in front of Mr. Smoothy as they all got out. "Why make us drive all over town and Undertown, following clues, just to return to the start point?" "It's crazy." Gwen frowns out as Dan exclaims. "No! It's genius! Nobody ever thinks of looking for the treasure at the starting point!" Dan ran towards the store as Rook blinks out. "He makes a surprisingly good point."
Dan ran to the back as he glances around, figuring that the item is hidden inside. "Looks like a job for Big Chill!" Dan slaps down on the watch, only to turn into a ghost-like alien with a gaseous appearance and knife-like claws with spikes on his elbows. His skin is greenish-white with black lines all over and a single green line peeking out. He lastly has green chains and braces on his neck, waist, elbows and wrists with the Omnitrix symbol in the middle of the chains.
"Ghostfreak? This version of me still has Ghostfreak? Well… So far so good, I think." Ghostfreak mumbles as he made sure to keep an eye on himself, in case of him going rouge due to his 'personality issues'. He phases through the wall and appears out of the other side, scaring people away, just as he times out. "SORRY! MY BAD! SORRY TO SCARE YOU! It's all good! You can go back to your smoothies!"
He turns to Gwen and Rook as he displays his find: Professor Paradox's cane. "I didn't find any more numbers, but I found this weird stick." Dan glances at it and shrugs, using it like a back scratcher as Gwen studies it. "It looks familiar… What is it?"
Suddenly, a purple portal appear behind Dan as a hand swaps the cane away. "Merely the key to domain throughout all of space and time. And thanks to you, I now have it. HAHAHAHA!" Eon laughs as he emerges from the portal and lands in front of Dan, Gwen and Rook. "It's amazing." Eon breaths out as the cane glows blue and purple as he peers into different realities and timelines, containing millions of different universes, even some that Dan has been to. "Every timeline, every alternate reality. I can see them all! And they are all mine!"
"Eon." Dan frowns out as he is tired of this time-traveling baddie messing with him. "I am so going to clean your clock." Dan slaps down on the Omnitrix, turning into a blue iguanian like alien with 3 claws and 2 on his feet. He has 4 spines on his back and whiskers on his chin with black marking around his green eyes that gores around his mouth, that has sharp teeth and breathes blue mist, every time he speaks. He lastly has a white shell on his chest area and black clothing that over the rest of his body, leaving his claws and fins sticking out with the Omnitrix on his chest.
"Arctiguana? Cool! Literally." Arctiguana fires out a powerful white and blue beam of ice that froze Eon, but he blasted free and uses the cane to create purple portals that drops armored and helmet figures, dressed like him and welding purple energy katanas.
They charged as Gwen chucks pink energy disc as Rook open fires with his Proto-tool, but the figures kept blocking or dodging as they drew closer, by the sec. "DAN?!" "Don't worry, Gwen! I had Arctiguana as well and knows how he works." The alien replies as he leaps up and breaths an ice slide, using it to launch himself over the figures as he froze them from above. "Done and done!" He cries out in victory, only to glance at Eon. "Oh, but there's more where that came from."
Eon then made portals as more minions dropped in. Rock dodges swipes as he uses his combat skills to knock them back, even roundhouse kicking one into another as Gwen levitates another and slams it on top of the pile, making Arctiguana freeze them as they notice the swirling vortexes. "The holes in time! They're not closing!" Gwen exclaims as suddenly; they start swirling around Eon as the winds begin to pick up.
Just then, a purple vortex appears in front of the alien and Gwen as it shows Dan's body with Alex and Madison. "Alex?" "Who?" "I was talking to her." Gwen notices the vortex as she noticed the kid. "Ben? Is that you?" Yep!" The boy nods as Maddie breaths out." "Whoa! Is that really your town?" "Cool! We're seeing into a different world! This is like, totally amazing!" Alex smiles out, only for Paradox to show up in another vortex. "Careful, children! Crossing over the time warps can have disastrous consequences."
"What is this, Time-Walker?! You tricked me!" Eon cries out in an angry tone as Paradox responds back. "On the country, I warned you about this. Stop this now, or all of existence will be destroyed." "NO! If I cannot rule the Cosmos, then I will be the one to destroy it!" Eon cries out to the heavens as he uses the cane to fire a bolt of blue lightning to the sky, creating a storm to signify the end of the world.
"THE CANE! Where is it?!" Ben cries out over the howling winds as Arctiguana rises an eye in response. "Duh! The bad guy has it, obviously!" Ben dials the Omnitrix and slaps down, transforming into Swampfire. "Duh! Then Swampfire is just going to take it back!" He lashed out his plant tentacles from his back, but disintegrate on contact with the portal as Eon returns fire. "Hey! Leave my older alternate self alone!" Arctiguana cried out as he breaths a blue beam that freezes the left side of the villain.
"Rook!" Gwen spoke out. "You take Alex and handle any stragglers. I'll take Madison and free Paradox. We're going to need a certain spell to do it." "What?" The purple haired tween spoke out. "But I don't know any magic! I can't even do it! I'm a girl of science!" Gwen smiles to assure the girl as she throws her a small book. "Yes, you can. With this!" Maddie grabs it and opens it. "It's my book of spells. It lets anyone who holds it use magic. But we're only doing one spell, Combibo Potentia. But we need to do it at the same time." Madison looks back at the book and back at Gwen and realizes she's got no other choice. "Okay… Guess we got no other option."
They both face Paradox as they cry out as the same time while rising their hands. "COMBIBO POTENTIA!" They both then fire pink and purple energy beams that hit Paradox, freeing him from the machine as Madison smiles out in awe. "WOW! That's so incredible! I did magic! It's amazing! It's so cool! It's…" "I know." Gwen smiles out, having the same reaction Maddie did when she was a kid.
Arctiguana is freezing Eon on one side as Swampfire controls vines that wraps around him on the other as Eon struggles between the 2. But the evil Time-Walker cries out as he sent out a shockwave that not only blew off the vines and broke the ice, but sent the 2 aliens on their back. Swampfire groans as he sat up and times out.
"Professor Paradox?! We're open to suggestions, here?!" Ben cries out the man replies. "You must overload the Chrono Navigator with an extremely powerful energy source, thus, repelling Eon back to his Timeline! I suggest Shock Rock." "But! Ben doesn't have Shock Rock in his watch!" Arctiguana cries out as Paradox sighs out. "If activated at the same time, your 2 Omnitrixes might synchronize with one another."
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP FLASH "MIGHT?! And you're supposed to be a professor?!" 'Well, it's better than won't!" Paradox responds back to Dan. But nonetheless, both Tennyson got no choice as Alex quickly shows Ben Shock Rock's icon. "One…" "Two…" Dan counts as he slides the faceplate back with a smirk. "THREE!" FLASH
Both heroes are now Shock Rock! Teen Shock Rock is 6 inches taller than kid Shock Rock and has more moss around his upper chest area and it's a darker green color. His head spikes are now a bit longer and his forearm rocks now cover the back of his hands and elbows and has smaller ones on his finger joints and his shoulder spikes are longer.
Both Fulmini nods at each other as they gathered up energy and fires 2 large beams of blue electricity at Eon, causing the energy to go wild as the man's eyes glowed green and blue as both Shock Rocks narrowed their eyes. As they kept pouring on the power, Eon screams to the heavens as the lighting consumed him and vanished in a burst of light as Paradox retrieves his cane. Both aliens smile out as they changed back. "We did it! It worked! No." Ben frowns out as his kid body, upset that despite all they did, they haven't gotten their bodies back. "I'm still a kid."
"Without Eon to anchor the 2 realities, all of the time periods are snapping back into place." The Time Professor smiles out as he opens up the eye part and took out his pocket watch, checking it before shutting it close. "Which means in a few seconds, none of this will happen and we won't remember anything." Dan deduces as Paradox chuckle out. "You really are getting good at this, young master Tennyson. Pity you have to start over." "Thanks, Dan. And good luck with your Omnitrix and your friends." "Yeah, you too… It was nice having my old aliens back, but I much rather have my real body back." Ben smiles out and then he frowns as everything went to normal.
As the 11-year-old is walking back to Madison and Alex from the Smoothie Shack, he spoke out in his kid voice, showing that Dan, now back to being called Ben, is back in the right body. "Is it me or does it look like the Baddies have decide to take a day off or 2?" "Yeah! But I totally dig the relaxing chill time! It's nice to just kick back and not worry about any mission." "But still, It can be a bit boring. Make you almost wish some disaster would happen, right now." Alex smirks out as she took her cup and drinks it. "Trust me! Something will happen. It always does."
But just as Ben was about to take a sip from his drink, a large crash drew his attention and looks down the street to Dr. Animo, charging down the street with a stampede of mutant giraffes. "Great! That whacko! Doesn't he ever stay in jail?" Alex groans out as the boy sighs out while handing his cup to his sister as Madison points out. "You got to admire his dedication to being a villain." "He never gives up… Anyway, I was hoping for something fun to do! And it looks like I got it!" Dan raises the core and slaps it down with a grin. When the green light fades, Dan is now a new alien!
He is 10 feet tall armadillo-like humanoid alien with what looks to be yellow plates of armor on his shoulders, forearms, legs, back, and head. His skin is light grey, and his eyes are green. He wears a black shirt with a large green stripe. He wears black fingerless gloves with white patch on his backhands and has sharp claws on each of his fingers and toes. His armor is attached to him by what looks like bolts, and he has jackhammer parts for elbows. He has a patch of green on his chin and white on the front of his leg armor and black leggings on his 3 toed with back one feet. His biceps, neck, tail, and thighs have no armor. The Omnitrix symbol is located on his chest.
"Whoa! New alien! Awesome!" Alex grins out as Ben glances at himself. "Weird… it feels like I've been this guy before and even already know a name for him: Armodrillo." Armodrillo scratches his head in confusion as he can't help but feel like he encountered this alien, even If he never seen or heard of him before. After a few more secs, he shrugs and grins out. "Whatever! As long as he's good at sending Animo's mutant to the Pound! IT'S HERO TIME!" He cries out as he charges as Madison and Alex follows after, beginning yet another battle with Dr. Animo on another day in the life of Ben Tennyson, kid spy and alien hero!
