...he's here
Currently on the highway at night, multiple police cars were chasing a black and white armored car. Also following behind was a news helicopter which was capturing everything that was happened and broadcasting it. "We're live on the scene of a high-speed police pursuit of an armored car stolen earlier today from the federal preserve in Michigan." The news reported announced as the armor car speed through the road. "It is believed the thief's also have a hostage."
Suddenly as the car was driving some crystals sprouted from the ground in front of the vehicle and popped the front right tire. The car came to an immediate stop after the thief driving it slammed the breaks and spun the car around.
The police cars stopped and surrounded the armored car from the front. The car door opened and one of the thieves came out with a middle-aged man in a gray suit holding him threateningly. Another thief came out of the other door and pointed what resembled a cross between a gun and a cannon. The weapon started to spark with electricity and fired a beam at a cop car sending it into the air as the officers ran from the attack.
The thief smirked cockily at his success as smoke piled through the air. However, once the smoke behind him cleared it revealed a humanoid made entirely of crystal wearing a black and orange jumpsuit with an hourglass symbol on his upper left chest. "Wait, whats this?" The reporter said as the thief look behind him and saw Diamondhead.
The thief took a few steps and aimed his weapon at the crystal alien but Diamondhead quickly swung his arm, which he shifted into a blade, and cut the gun in half making the thief drop it. The thief panicked at started to run away but Diamondhead narrowed his eyes and concentrated. Suddenly a giant crystal spire came up below the thief and trapped him inside. "Yes, it looks like we have another alien sighting."
Diamondhead looked up at the trapped thief as more smoke cleared behind him revealing the other thief holding the hostage. Diamondhead simply narrowed his eyes and looked back at the thief and raised his hand and shifted it into a lethal blade and smirked. The thief looked in a shock in fear and he let go of the hostage and put his hands up and gulped.
IN SPACE
In the squid man's spaceship all the monitors in the room were playing the news feed of Diamondhead. "We don't know where these aliens are coming from but they appear to be here to help."
"The Omnitrix…" The squid man said as he watched the news feed. "Wasted on such heroics!"
"Shall we dispatch more drones to retrieve it?" One of the squid man's drones asked.
"No…" Suddenly the pod in the middle of the room opened releasing steam and shaking the whole room. As it opened a small bug like robot crawled out. But just as it did a giant armored foot came down and completely destroyed it. When the steam cleared it revealed the shadow of a large humanoid being with piercing blood red eyes. "I will see to this matter myself."
It was currently 10:00 AM in Royal Woods Michigan. In the Loud House all the Loud siblings were going about their morning doing their usual routines…except one.
"Aah!" Lincoln screamed as he shot up from his bed. After getting over his rude awakening we sat back on down and panted heavily as a few drops of sweat came down from his head. Suddenly his door opened causing him to flinch. When the door completely opened it revealed Leni with a concern look on her face.
"Linky, are you ok?" Leni asked as she sat down next to Lincoln. "I heard you scream."
"Y-yeah I-I'm fine, just…didn't get a lot of sleep last night is all." The Loud boy answered.
"Oh, did you have another nightmare?"
Lincoln let out a sigh and nodded. "Yeah, and there all dealing with that squid alien I saw when I merged with Rojo. Ugh, they've been keeping me up all week."
"Just try to think about them. they're just dreams they can't hurt you." Leni got up from the band and offered Lincoln her hand to help him up. "Now come on why don't we go make some breakfast."
Lincoln put on a small smile and took his sisters hand and got off from the bed. "Yeah you're right. I'm probably just over reacting." Leni smiled and nodded in response as her and Lincoln headed downstairs into the kitchen.
Lisa was currently in her room hanging pictures on a white board while biting on a pen. All the pictures she had hung up had been cut from newspaper articles discussing the alien sighting's in royal woods. There were pictures of Heatblast, AmpFibian, Diamondhead, Goop, Four-arms, Big Chill, Upgrade, Echo Echo, NRG, Ghostfreak and Fasttrack. Lisa had even drawn a diagram of Gray Matter from memory which was also on the board.
As Lisa was examining the photo's she took the pen from her mouth and started drawing circulars on all the photos. Lisa had circled a symbol on all the aliens which resembled a hour glass. "What does it mean?" Lisa asked herself as she scratched her chin.
Suddenly Lisa heard a knock on her door and Lori's voice could be heard from the other side. "Lisa come on it's time for breakfast." However, her words fell on deaf ears as Lisa continued to go over the pictures. "Lisa don't make me come in there!" Soon enough Lori came into the room glaring at Lisa. "Lisa are you literally deaf because…hey whats all that?" The oldest Loud asked upon noticing Lisa's white board.
"Lori…" Lisa said as she turned around and looked up at Lori. "Have you heard of all the alien sightings lately?"
"Well, duh. I don't think there's literally anyone who hasn't. They're pretty much all over the news with story about them saving people and stopping criminals. Why?"
"Well, after a few weeks of observing them I've discovered something." Lisa took a laser pointer out of her pocket and directed it to the hourglass symbol on each alien. "I've discovered that all the aliens have this symbol somewhere on their bodies."
Lori looked over the circled parts of the alien photo's and saw that Lisa was right. On each and every alien there was a gray hourglass symbol. "Wow, you're right…although…"
"Although?" Lisa said in confusion.
"It's just…I feel like I've seen before. Somewhere."
"Hmm, do enlighten me."
Lori crossed her arms and continued to look at the pictures of the aliens in though trying to think of where she's seen that symbol before. However, she sighed as her thoughts came up blank. "I'm not sure. But I know I've seen it somewhere before."
Suddenly Lori and Lisa heard many knocks on the door and looked back and saw the door open with all their siblings (minus Lincoln, Leni and Lucy) coming in the room with Luna holding Lily. "Hey whats taking you guys so long?" Lana asked.
"Yeah, it's pancake Friday and Lincoln, Lucy and Leni and the rest of us are waiting for you. Honestly pancakes are the thing worth waking up before 11." Lola said sternly.
"Hey what's all that junk?" Lynn asked
"These fellow siblings are photographs of the various alien life forms that having been appearing in the general area as of late." Lisa explained.
Luna's eyes immediately widen upon hearing her genius sister's explanation. Her eyes darted over to the board and saw photos of all of Lincolns aliens and a drawing of Gray Matter. Luna started to sweat nervously when she saw Lisa had circled the Omnitrix symbol on all the aliens.
"Oh, those guys are so cool." Lana said as she looked at all the photos on the white board. "That jelly fish alien is my favorite."
"Well I think that moth guy is really cool, hahaha, get it?" Luan joked as her siblings rolled their eyes and groaned.
"So, uh Lis, what are you doing with all those photo's?" Luna asked nervously.
"Well after observing the aliens since they first showed up I've discovered that they all have this hourglass like symbol on them." Lisa explained.
The siblings that have just entered the room (except Luna and Lily) went over to the white board and saw all the spots Lisa had circled. "Woah you're right Lisa. That's so weird." Lana said as Luna gulped nervously.
"I know right. And I swear that symbol is literally giving me a huge case of déjà vu. I swear I've seen it before." Lori explained.
The Loud siblings that were already looking at the photo's squinted their eyes and looked at the hourglass symbol that was on all the alien. Strangely enough it did look familiar to them. "You know, now that you say it Lori there is something familiar about it." Lana said.
Luna's nervousness continued to grow as her siblings started to gather facts. And it was clear that the reason it looked familiar to them was because they saw Lincoln's watch before. "Maybe it's just a coincidence." Luna said with a nervous smile.
"Hmmm, nah, something like this has got to mean something." Lynn stated.
Luna gulped nervously as she tried to think of a way to change the subject. Suddenly Lily started giggling as she pointed to all the pictures and said…"Wincoln!" Luna's eyes instantly widened as she covered Lily's mouth while her siblings drew their attention to the two.
"What did Lily just say?" Lola asked.
"Nothing! She didn't say anything!" Luna said rather quickly.
"No, no she said something." Lynn said
"Ok see you guy's downstairs me and Lily will be waiting for you dudes." Luna said as she quickly took Lily out of the room.
"Well that was weird." Luan said.
"Yeah, I've never seen Luna act so nervous before. So, what did Lily say?" Lana asked.
"IF I am correct, which I usually am, I believe our youngest sibling had pointed to the photographs of the extraterrestrials and called them Lincoln." Lisa explained.
"Weird why would she call them…wait a second…I know where I've seen that symbol before!" Lori said.
"Where?" All of her sisters in the room said.
"Lincolns watch!" However, her sisters gave her confused expressions. "His watch? It's black and bulky and on his right wrist."
"Oh yeah, it's really weird looking." Lola stated.
"Yeah and you know I've literally never seen him take it off since he got back from that camping trip with dad and Leni." Lori started scratching her chin as she tried to remember what the watch looked like. "Didn't the face plate have this green hourglass symbol?"
"Green?" Lana said in confusion. "I thought it was red."
"Um, nope I'm pretty sure it's green."
"I don't know Lori I'm with Lana on this one." Lola said. "That time we interrogated him about that quarter he found in the sofa I'm pretty sure I saw that the face plate was red."
"The point being…" Lisa interrupted. "It seems that Lincoln's watch saw the same symbol that all the aliens seem to be wearing."
"Well, maybe we could watch him and see what's up, Hahaha." Luan joked.
"Hm, perhaps some observations of our brother unit could lead us to some discovery and possible connections."
"Pfft, as it." Lynn laughed. "Our brother involved with those butt kicking aliens, yeah that'll be the day."
"Ugh, can we worry about all this sci-fi junk later or so help I will eat all your guy's pancakes." Lola said sternly. The rest of the sister's eyes immediately widen as they dropped their conversation and ran out the door and headed downstairs. But right as they were about to storm down the stairs they saw Lucy walking up the downstairs looking gloomier then usualy.
"Hey Luce what's up?" Lynn asked.
"Nothing." The young goth said in an almost breaking voice. "I just never thought my own brother would keep secrets from me." Lucy walked past all her sister's and back into her and Lynn's room.
"What do you think that was about?" Lana asked.
"Eh, she's always miss gloom and doom." Lynn said shrugging off her roommate's behavior. "Now come on I'm starving." All of her sisters simply agreed and headed downstairs into the kitchen. However, when they went down they failed to see their brother on the couch looking rather down.
Lincoln and Leni had just made it downstairs and were standing under the doorway to the kitchen. "Where do you think everyone else is doing?" Lincoln asked as he looked around for the rest of his sisters.
"Who knows." Leni answered while shrugging her shoulders. "Well I'm gonna get started on the pancakes feel free to join whenever." Leni added as she walked into the kitchen.
Lincoln nodded in response as Leni walked into the creature. Lincoln was about to head into the kitchen but suddenly he got a massive migraine and held his head in agony. Suddenly images of a giant silhouette of a humanoid creature with piercing blood red eyes came into his head. 'I'm coming for you.'
Lincoln was brought back into reality as the image in his head disappeared. He looked at his hand and found he was slightly trembling as he panted and sweated. "Hey bro." Lincoln jumped as he heard a familiar voice talk behind him. He looked behind him and saw Luna holding Lily. "Woah, you ok dude? You look pretty stressed."
"Y-yeah just…have a bit of a head ache." Lincoln answered. "So, where's everyone else?"
"Yeeeeah, about the other…" Luna said nervously. "They're kinda discussing all the alien sighting lately and Lily almost blew your cover dude."
"Goo-goo." Lily said innocently.
Lincoln sighed in annoyance as he looked Lily in the eye. "Lily you gotta stop doing that. The others can't know ok." Lincoln told the toddler.
"Poo-poo." Lily said sadly as she looked down.
"It's ok Lily." Lincoln said with a smile. "Just try not to it again ok." Lily looked back up at Lincoln and nodded her head. "Good, now why don't you and Luna go into the kitchen, Leni's already in there."
"Sound like a plan bro." Luna said as she took Lily into the dinning room. "You coming bro?"
"You two go I'll be in soon."
"Sounds good." Luna answered as she headed into the kitchen with Lily.
When Lincoln saw his sisters leave he let out a deep sigh and sat down on the couch. When he sat down Lincoln got another glimpse of the giant alien and held his head in agony. The vision disappeared as quickly as it appeared. "What's going on?" He muttered to himself. Right as Lincoln was about to get up from the couch and go to the kitchen…
"Hey Lincoln."
Lincoln jumped clean off the couch and hit his head on the coffee table. Lincoln sat up from the floor and rubbed his head and saw Lucy standing on the other side of the couch. Lucy covered her mouth with her hands as she saw Lincoln hit his head and quickly helped him up. "Sorry about that I didn't mean to make you hit your head like that." Lucy said
"Lucy, you really need to watch where your popping up!" Lincoln said in a surprising angry tone. Lucy took a step and flinched at her brothers surprising outburst. Sure, she normally got an annoyed reaction from people she scared, which was a little entertaining to her, but never something like this. Lincoln quickly realized the tone she spoke with Lucy with and lowered his head in shame. "Sorry…I've just been a little stressed lately."
"I-its fine." Lucy said as she put on a smile small. "What's wrong you've been distant lately, even more so then me."
"Its nothing. I'm fine really."
Lucy saw Lincolns face and knew he was lying. His eyes were baggier then usual showing he hasn't gotten much sleep lately. And lately he hasn't been spending much time around the house or around her and her sisters, minus Leni and Luna for whatever reason. "Lincoln…please…tell me what's going on."
"What do you mean?" Lincoln asked with genuine confusion.
"Lincoln don't think I haven't noticed." Lucy said in a surprising serious tone. "You haven't gotten much sleep lately your eyes are baggy and more so then usual, you spend most of you time out of the house and, other then Leni and Luna, you haven't been spending much time with us lately. Please you can tell me what's up."
"Lucy, I appreciate that you're looking out for me but…I don't wanna talk about it so just drop it ok."
Lucy's face immediately shifted into a sadden frown. "Lincoln…when I shared my secret of Princess Pony with you said I don't need to hide anything from you, that I could tell you anything…I guess you just don't trust me." Lucy lowered her head and headed towards the stairs as Lincoln looked at her with a sad expression.
"L-Lucy, wait." Lucy stopped walking and looked back at Lincoln. Lincoln struggled to find words as he stuttered under his own tongue. Lincoln lowered his head in defeat as he couldn't find the right words to say. Lucy simply looked down at the floor and walked up the stairs as the rest of his sisters walked into the kitchen.
Lincoln let out another sigh as a realization came to him. He held up his right arm and lowered his sleeve and looked at the Omnitrix with an angry expression. Lincoln raised his fist up and was prepared to hit the Omnitrix "This is all your fault you stupid…"
"Lincoln." Lincoln lowered his fist and rolled up his sleeve and looked behind him and saw his mother, who had just come out of her room, looking at him. "What are you doing sweetie?"
"N-nothing. whats up?"
"Well I actually came to get you." Rita explained. "Pop-Pop's on video chat on the computer in me and your fathers room and he says he wants to talk to you in private."
"Oh, really?"
"Yep and don't worry I'll make sure to save some pancakes for you."
"Ok, thanks mom." Lincoln got up from the couch as Rita headed into the kitchen. When Lincoln got into his parent's room and sat down at the desk inside and saw that Albert was on the laptops screen sitting in his room at Sunset Hills.
"Hey, how's my favorite super hero doing?" Albert asked with his usual smile.
Lincoln tried his best to but on a smile but it was clear he was hiding something. "I'm doing fine Pop-Pop."
Albert saw the expression on Lincolns face and grew a little concerned. "You sure kiddo, you seem a little out of it today."
"Yeah I'm fine. I guess I've been having a lot of nightmares lately."
Albert raised a brow as his curiosity grew. "Really? Well why don't you tell your Pop-Pop what's troubling you eh?"
Lincoln let out a sigh as he started to tell Pop-Pop about everything leading to his nightmares. He explained the events about what happened with Rojo and her getting merged with a drone and turning into a super powerful cyborg and breaking Leni's leg. He then got to the part where he merged with Rojo as Upgrade. "And ever since then I've been having nightmares about that alien and they only keep getting worse."
Albert was deep into Lincolns explanation taking in every detail. He only grew more concerned when Lincoln explained the drones and cyborg Rojo's appearance. "Lincoln, tell me…what did this alien look like?"
"Well, he had sickly green skin, awful blood red eyes and he had tentacles for a beard."
Alberts eyes immediately widened upon Lincolns explanation. He had a horrified expression on his face 'it's impossible.' Albert thought to himself as his expression became very series. "Lincoln." He said in a tone as serious as his voice. "Did this alien say anything to you?"
Lincoln was shocked by his Pop-Pop tone and expression. Normally he's care free and easy going but now he looks as serious as a person can get. "Yeah, he said…I'm coming for you."
Albert silently gasp at what his grandson just told him. "Lincoln…stay…right…there! I'm coming to get you!" Albert said as he got up from his chair.
"Pop-Pop what do you me-" However before Lincoln could finish his question Albert disappeared from the computer screen leaving Lincoln confused. "What just happened?"
Albert was now backing various items in a bag at a rapid pace with some of them looking really high-tech. "It's impossible it has to be." He said as he briefly stopped stuffing things into his bag. "HE SHOULDN'T EVEN BE ALIVE!" Albert took a few deep breaths and tried to calm himself down. "Just relax Albert, all you need to do is get the Rust Bucket and get Lincoln to Mount Rushmore as fast as possible."
IN SPACE
The squid man was currently sitting on the captain's chair of his ship as his drones were scanning the Royal Woods Michigan area with there computers. "Master, it seems we are unable to locate the Omnitrix." One of them said as he faced the squid man.
"No matter. I have pin pointed its location." The squid man said as the computers showed screens showed images of Lincolns aliens do various heroic deeds. "I know just how to draw this earthling out."
Outside of Royal Woods it was mostly quite with no cars on the road and grassy fields surrounding the area. Suddenly the earth started to rumble as a giant showed come over the town border. Suddenly the squid mans space ship appeared in the sky as the sheer force of it creating huge gust wind. A compartment opened up on the bottom of the spaceship releasing many bug-like drones into the air. Finally, a giant spiked metal sphere dropped down from the ship and crashed onto the road below. The sphere started to roll at high speeds into the town as one of the bug drones shot a laser destroying the "Welcome to Royal Woods sign."
Lincoln was currently sitting outside the house leaning against vanzilla. He was thinking of his conversation with his Pop-Pop, why did he get so serious when talking about the alien from his nightmares and where was he going to take Lincoln. "You ok sport?" Lincoln was snapped out of his thoughts and looked to his left and saw Lynn Sr and Leni standing right next to him with the former having spoken up. "Leni told me what's going on with you."
"I'm doing ok I guess. I just hate how I have to lie to everyone about this. And when I explained by nightmares to Pop-Pop he got super serious and told me he was coming to get me." Lincoln explained.
"Where's he taking you Lincoln?" Leni asked.
"I don't know. Before I could he shut off video chat. I don't think I've ever seen him that serious before."
"Well I think Pop-Pop's going to have to wait son." Lynn Sr said as he pointed to the distance. Lincoln and Leni looked to where their father was pointed and saw a massive cloud of smoke in the distance. "We got trouble." Lynn Sr and Leni were quick to get into vanzilla. Lincoln was about to get into vanzilla but hesitated at first due to what his Pop-Pop told him to. He looked back the smoking area as another migraine and vision of the squid man over took him. He quickly shook off the feeling and got in the van deciding that the people were more important.
The Bug drones were currently flying around the Royal Woods area shooting lasers destroying parts of building and cars as people ran away screaming. One of the drones shot a laser a gas tank at a gas station causing the whole building to exploded.
Meanwhile vanzilla was heading towards all the destructions with Lincoln deciding on what alien to turn into. "Things look really bad here son think you can handle it?" Lynn Sr asked.
"Don't worry dad I got-" As Lincoln was talking the van hit a huge bump causing him Leni and Lynn Sr to jump into the air. Soon after that vanzilla started slowing down.
The three got out of the van and Lynn Sr saw that the front left tire had been popped. "Ah, we got a flat and I don't have a spare on me." Lynn Sr said.
As Lynn Sr was looking over a tire Leni saw a bug-drone flying through the area. "Uh, I don't think we have to go much farther." Leni said with fear in her voice.
Lincoln looked up and saw the drone racing towards them and quickly decided on a silhouette. "You guys stay here, I'll handle this." Lincoln said as he slammed down the faceplate. Lincoln's body then started to get covered in armor.
"NRG! HAHAHA NRG is G.O.O.D!" Right after transforming NRG shot a beam of radiation at the drone and completely destroyed it. "I'll destroy all the robot's you guy's stay here and see what you can do about the tire."
"Got it. Good luck son." Lynn Sr said with a thumb's up.
"Stay safe." Leni said. NRG nodded in response and ran off down the street.
Two drones were currently firing their lasers at cars as some by standers ran away. As they were firing two beams of radiation came from behind them and destroyed them. "Why don't you pick on someone your own size." NRG quipped as he looked at the remains. However, when NRG looked behind him he saw dozens of drones flying above him. "Ugh, me and my big mouth. Why do I get the feeling you were expecting me?" The inside of NRG suit started to glow brightly as beams of radiation came out of all 3 of his grill plates. NRG guided the beams towards the drones and they instantly destroyed them upon coming into contact. NRG continued to fire onslaught of beams at the drones destroying them. Soon enough all the drones were destroyed.
NRG started panting heavily after unleashing so many beams of radiation. However, before he had a chance to rest a bola-like device came from behind a smoke pile behind NRG and pinned him to a building with blue electricity. "Hey, who did that?!"
NRG looked up and saw giant metal sphere with spikes all over rolling over to him. Once it was right in front of his it opened up releasing a large cloud of steam and revealed a silver tube with a door that had a red light on it.
The door opened releasing for steam. When it completely opened a shadow of a creature with blood red eyes. The creature looked up at NRG with the most intimidating glare he was ever seen. When the creature emerged from the machine each step he took crumbled the pavement and quaked the ground. When the steam fully cleared the creature could be seen in its entirety.
It appeared to be a bulky and large humanoid standing at a towering 14 foot tall. Its torso, legs, chest, shoulder, hands and extremely sharp claws had reddish-black armor plating on them. Its skin was a sickly green and splotchy. Its arms had red creases in them with long dark crimson rods sticking out of them as well as it shoulders plates. Its face was the most horrifying feature, its face was squid-like with long dangling tentacles coming from it resembling a beard. Its mouth was covered by a black mask with tubes connected to it. His eyes were pupil-less and blood red.
"You! You're the alien from my visions!"
"At last we meet. The being that had caused me so much trouble!"
"…Who are you?"
"I…am Vilgax. And I have come for the Omnitrix!"
Just outside the scene Albert was driving in what appeared to be a long RV which was primarily dark blue with black stripes over a rusted bottom. It also had giant anchors painted on the southern part of both sides of the RV. It had some satellite equipment on the roof with two antennae on the front of the vehicle. This was Alberts RV the Rust Bucket.
As Albert was speeding through the roads he had a serious look on him as he breathed heavily. "I gotta get Lincoln to Mouth Rushmore before he gets to him. I just hope I'm not to late." Albert continued to drive through the roads but his eyes widen when he saw a familiar vehicle stopped in the road. Albert quickly slammed on the breaks and stopped in front of it.
Albert got out of the Rust Bucket and Saw Leni and Lynn Sr looking over vanzilla. The two quickly turned their attention to Pop-Pop as he left the RV. "Pop-Pop?" What are you doing here?" Leni asked.
"I could be asking you two the same question young lady! what are you two doing here?!"
"We saw some trouble happening in this area and we came over here to check things out." Lynn Sr explained. "Although when we were driving the old girl here got a flat tire."
Albert quickly took a look around the area and noticed someone was missing. "Wait where's Lincoln?!"
"He told us to stay here while he went off to go fight those bug robots." Leni explained.
"HE'S WHAT?!"
"Pop-Pop…what's going on?"
"No time to explain, get in the RV!" Albert shouted as he got back in the RV. Lynn Sr and Leni looked at each other in confusion. Lincoln was right Albert was acting more serious then both Louds have ever seen anyone be. The two quickly complied with Albert and got in the Rust Bucket.
"Let me guess, you're not with the good guy." NRG said as he struggled to get out of the restraints. Suddenly NRG's armor started to glow orange and radiate with intense heat and almost looked like it was melting. However, instead of his armor melted the metal rods connected the electricity melted and released NRG from the ground. "Woah, this is new." NRG said as he looked over his now glowing armor. All but his hands stopped glowing as NRG charged at Vilgax. When NRG reached Vilgax he proceeded to unleash a barrage of punches to the tyrant's legs. When NRG ceased his attacks, he saw that Vilgax's armor didn't even have a scratch on it. Vilgax proceeded to pick up NRG and threw him sending him flying through a multitude of building.
NRG fired a beam of radiation freeing him from the pile of debris he was under and rubbed his helmet. "Ugh…he's…to…strong." NRG said as he struggled for breath. Vilgax, who was still in his original position, crouched down and proceeded to jump at a remarkable height and landed just a few yards away from NRG creating a quake and small crater when he landed. NRG quickly got up from the ground and started at the warlord walking slowly up to him. "I gotta slow him down!" NRG reared his hands back and clapped them together. Suddenly electricity started to sizzle in his armored hands. NRG brought his hands together and slammed them into the ground. Suddenly the ground started to glow red as a massive geyser of lava erupted right into of NRG.
Vilgax's eyes widen a bit as he saw the lava slowly approached. He stepped back a bit but soon found himself sinking into the ground. Vilgax looked down and saw that the road had turned into tar from the lava's sheer heat. Vilgax struggled to escape to tar but to no avail. If NRG's expression could be seen he would be smiling smugly as stepped up to the struggling Vilgax as the lava disappeared into the ground.
As NRG walked up to Vilgax Albert came onto the scene driving the Rust Bucket towards them. Albert got one look at Vilgax and an expression of shock overcame his face. "No, it can't be." Albert said as he starred at the squid man.
NRG stopped walking at looked at the struggling Vilgax with his arms crossed. "Not so tough when you can't move huh?" NRG quipped as Vilgax gave him a death glare. Suddenly the Rust Bucket pulled up in between NRG and Vilgax leading NRG to step back. When the door opened it revealed Leni with a serious look on her face. "Leni?"
"Lincoln, Pop-Pop said to get in like now!" Leni said surprisingly sternly.
"Pop-Pop?" before NRG had a chance to question Leni the Omnitrix symbol started to beep red as NRG turned back to normal.
"Lincoln get it!" Pop-Pop said even more sternly. Lincoln was a little confused at first but took a chance at the still struggling Vilgax and quickly got in the RV. Leni quickly closed the door as Lincoln got in as Albert hit the gas and sped away from the scene.
When in the RV Lincoln saw that not only were Leni and Albert was in it but also his father. "Dad, Leni, Pop-Pop? What's going on?"
"Well when we were trying to find a way to get vanzilla moving again Albert came with his RV and asked where you were and picked us up." Lynn Sr explained.
"Yeah and Lincoln trust me when I say this you do not wanna pick a fight with Vilgax." Every was left shocked at Alberts claims. How did he know the name of the creature that had just attacked Lincoln?
"Wait, what?" Lincoln said in complete confusion
"Pop-Pop how do you know his name?" Leni asked.
"Albert, what aren't you telling us?" Lynn Sr asked.
Albert tensed up for a second but simply ignored his family's question and kept on driving. However, as he kept driving some explosion came from behind them causing Leni and Lincoln to fall down to the to the back of the RV.
Lincoln opened up the certain to the window and he and Leni saw two bug drones flying after them. "Two robot goons closing in fast!" Leni panicked.
"Hold on." Albert said. Albert quickly shifted the direction of the Rust Bucket dodging laser fire from the two drones. The two drones kept up their pursuit and continued to fire laser at the RV.
"We can't keep this up forever!" Lynn Sr said as he tightened his seat belt.
"Look Lynn, I'm going to drop you and Leni off back home and I'm taking Lincoln to Mount Rushmore. Trust me things will get a whole lot worse if I don't."
"Why?!" Leni asked as tried to hold to something. "Mount Rushmore is like 4 states away, and whats at it anyway?"
"Leni this is no the time to explain."
"So, you just want to take me and Rita's son to Mount Rushmore without any explanation?" Lynn Sr said.
"Look you're just gonna have to trust me Lynn."
Another explosion came from behind them causing Lincoln to fall on the floor. "Well if you have to take dad and Leni home then we gotta get rid of those drones so we don't lead them there." Lincoln said as he activated the Omnitrix and slammed the face plate down.
"Big Chill!" After transforming Big Chill quickly went intangible and flew through the roof of the RV.
"Lincoln wait!" Albert said as he saw Lincoln leave.
Big Chill ignored his Pop-Pop's pleads and continued to phase through the roof. When Big Chill got outside we looked up and saw the bug drones chasing them down and flew towards them. The drones tried to fire lasers and moth alien but Big Chill simply went intangible to avoid them. When Big Chill got up to the drones we turned solid again and stood on top of one and made a "come on" Motion with his finger. The other drone fired lasers at Big Chill but he simply went intangible and the lasers hit the other drone destroying it. Big Chill flew up to the other drone while still intangible and flew through it freezing it from the inside causing it to fall and blow up.
Big Chill flew down to the destroyed and frozen drone and smirked at his success. "What's wrong can't take the cold shoulder?" Big Chill quipped. However right as he was about to fly back in the air, Vilgax, who had leaded from all the way across town, came from above and grabbed onto Big Chill's leg as he flew up in the air.
"Give me the Omnitrix." Vilgax demanded.
"How about…no." Big Chill went intangible and sent Vilgax falling back down to the ground. However, Vilgax landed on his feet and was completely unharmed by the fall and jumped back up towards Big Chill and attempted to grab him but Big Chill quickly dodged to the left. "Who is this guy?!"
When Vilgax landed back down on the ground he was right in front of the Rust Bucket. Albert quickly stopped the RV and drove in the other direction. "Pop-Pop what are we doing we need to help Lincoln." Leni said.
"I will, after I get you two to safety. Then I'll need to get some special help." Albert explained much to the annoyance of Leni and Lynn Sr due to his vagueness.
"Let me guess, at Mount Rushmore." Lynn Sr said with some slight sourness in his tone. "Albert, you're really freaking us out."
Big Chill was still flying away from Vilgax, who was know running on top of buildings trying to catch him. When Vilgax got to the end of the building he was running on he jumped up and managed to grab onto Big Chill. Before Big Chill could react he and Vilgax ended up crashing into a building creating a large explosion.
When the smoke cleared Vilgax emerged from the rubble holding a weakened Big Chill by his neck. "I grow tired of this." Vilgax said as one of his claws on his other hand glowed red.
Vilgax proceeded to touch the Omnitrix symbol with his claw and suddenly Big Chill was engulfed in a red flash and turned back to Lincoln. "Hey, how'd you do that?"
"A child…" Vilgax ignored Lincoln's question and tightened his grip on Lincoln and was clearly growing angrier which every passing second. "THE OMNTIRIX IS THE HANDS OF A MERE CHILD?!" However Vilgax seemingly got over his shock of seeing Lincoln and hovered his hand over the Omnitrix. Suddenly the Omnitrix started to pulsate with green electricity. An instant after a massive burst of green energy came out of the Omnitrix and sent Vilgax rocketing towards the building behind him. Vilgax quickly got up after crashing into the building and stared down at Lincoln. "It seems the Omnitrix has already merged with your DNA."
"Um, I don't suppose that means you'll let me get away?" Lincoln said nervously as he crawled away.
"Hardly." Vilgax retorted sourly.
Lincoln started to panic as Vilgax started to walk towards him. Lincoln quickly looked at the Omnitrix and saw it was in the green. "Well…" Lincoln said with a smug expression. "I'll just have to do it myself then." Lincoln instantly activated the Omnitrix and slammed it down with his body becoming sleeker.
"Fasttrack!" Fasttrack immediately back flipped off the ground and started running towards Vilgax. Vilgax simply narrowed his eyes and reached out his hands in attempt to grab the speeding alien. However, at the last second, Fasttrack ducked down and slid right between Vilgax's legs and started to run off in the distant.
Vilgax turned around and looked at the dust cloud speeding off and tighten his fist and growled. "This child has no idea who he's dealing." Vilgax's spiked sphere vehicle rolled up behind him and opened up. Vilgax got in the sphere and started typing things on the computers in there but as he was doing so…
"Lord Vilgax." He heard on have his drones say from a communicator.
"What is it." Vilgax growled clearly annoyed and agitated.
"Well we've been monitoring the events that have just transpired from here and after seeing who the earthling with the Omnitrix is and after doing research about the surrounding area, we may have found a more…effective way of leading him to us and rendering him unable to do anything to resist you."
"…Then do it."
Fasttrack had just made his way out of town standing right outside the city he was just in. Fasttrack stopped running and put his hands on his knees while panting heavily. "I think…I…lost him." He said in between breaths.
As Fasttrack struggled for breath the Omnitrix symbol beeped red as Fasttrack turned back to normal. A moment afterwards the Rust Bucket pulled up right next to Lincoln. The door shot open and Leni came out and pulled Lincoln into a tight hug. "Oh, I'm so glad you're ok!" Leni said as she picked Lincoln up in the hug.
"Thanks…but can you put me down now?" Lincoln asked as Leni set him back on the ground. The two quickly got back in the RV as Albert slammed the gas and speed off.
"Lincoln are you ok?" Lynn Sr asked.
"What were you thinking?!" Albert said in semi serious and angry tone. "I told you not to pick a fight with that tyrant!"
"Sorry Pop-Pop I didn't know he was that strong." Lincoln answered. "But Pop-Pop how did you know his name and what he was capable of."
"Look kiddo I'm sure you all have questions and are completely confused right now."
"Completely confused is an understatement." Leni interrupted.
"Look there's just no time to explain right now." Albert continued. "Look I'm gonna drop you two off back home where it's safe and I have to take Lincoln to Mount Rushmore before Vilgax finds us again. I need you all to trust me."
Lynn Sr, Leni and Lincoln all looked at each other in deep thought. They all simply sighed and nodded in response. "Alright fine, but when this is over you giving us some serious answers Albert." Lynn Sr said sternly.
"I promise when this is all over I'll explain everything."
After about a half hour drive in awkward silence Albert stopped the RV right in front of the Loud House. "Alright everyone we're here." Albert said as he and Lynn Sr unbuckled their seatbelts. "Now when we get in there we're simply going to tell the others I'm going to take Lincoln on a little trip. So, play it cool ok?" Everyone nodded in agreement as they all left the RV.
When the got to the door Lynn Sr took a deep breath as he reached for the door handle. However right as he was about to grabbed the door creaked open a tiny bit. "Weird, the door's already open." Lynn Sr pushed the door open and when they saw the inside of the house they were in complete shock.
The whole room was dark and almost all the items in the living room had been destroyed. There were holes in the walls of various sizes along with giant cracks. The stairs had been almost completely broken down with almost every step cracked in half. Most of the windows in the room had also been smashed.
"What happened in here?" Lincoln said as he, Lynn Sr, Leni and Albert looked over the room.
"Maybe out sisters had another fight." Leni said with fear in her voice.
"No, your sisters may break things when they get into fights but this…something completely different happened." Lynn Sr said as they entered the house.
Albert was in complete silence as he looked around the room. He was sweating nervously and he was visibly trembling. 'please…tell me he didn't get to them.'
"Where is everyone." Lincoln said as the four looked around the room. Suddenly a shine could be seen from the wrecked coffee table. Lincoln went over and dug through the rubble and picked it up. It appeared to resemble a silver disk with a button on the tope of it. "Hey, what's this."
"No clue, I've never seen anything like it before." Leni said.
"Press the button on the top." Albert told Lincoln.
Lincoln looked at Albert confused as to how he knew what this thing was. How many things was his Pop-Pop hiding? Lincoln quickly got over the feeling and pressed the button on the top of the device. Suddenly a small hologram of Vilgax appeared.
"Hello Omnitrix boy. As you can see your family is no longer here. We are currently getting to know each other. Here's how this is going to work, you will bring the Omnitrix to me at the place you earthlings call Mount Rushmore. Fail to show and they suffer the consequences. It's your choice boy. Them, or the Omnitrix.
