NOW LET'S GET ON WITH THE STORY!

{Episode 9: The Plumbers' Helpers}

A tall panting Human Man can be seen running down a corridor through a Sewage Plant while briefly turning around to pull out an Alien Blaster and fire off numerous blue energy blasts at the people chasing after him, only for a blue/black blur to zoom by, and it was able to not only steal away his weapon but also his ID Mask, revealing him to be a DNAlien as he transformed back into his True Form with a flash of blue light.

Stunned by this, the DNAlien didn't have time to react as a blue/green/black blur appeared, and it rushed over to grab his arm as it lead him all the way to the exit of the Sewage Plant before letting go of him as the mysterious blur sped off and the scared and nervous DNAlien tried to make a break for it, only for a ring of fire to appear to trap him in one spot as the DNAliens screeched in fear and confusion but then winced as a bright light filled his vision.

Turning this head, the DNAlien was stunned to see the back of a truck pulling up towards him as it opened to reveal a Null Void Projector, and it activated as a glowing red/white portal began generating inside of it and a horrified and frightful DNAlien tried to run away, only for a Human/Tetramand Hybrid to appear out of nowhere and land on top of the truck while holding four energy snares as he proceeds to whip at his enemy, causing the DNAlien to panic and struggle to free himself, but it was too late as the Alien Hybrid was able to pull him into the Null Void Projector and was teleported into the Null Void with a flash of red/white light.

"Another one bites the dust." The Human/Tetramand Male Hybrid says stoically just as the Two Mysterious Figures zoomed onto the scene, revealing themselves to be a Human/Kineceleran Female Hybrid and a Human/Citrakayah Male Hybrid as a Human/Pyronite Male Hybrid can be seen flying over to hover above them on a large flaming piece of rock.

One of the Alien Hybrids is a 6-feet-tall, 16-year-old Male Human/Tetramand Hybrid with an oblong-shaped head as he has two pairs of thin orange pupilless eyes, a bald head with a large thick black stripe on it, no nose, a sharp chin with a small black stripe on his chin, two pairs of slim four-fingered arms, Red Skin, a tall athletically toned muscular build, slim two-toed feet, and his outfit consists of a sleeveless black shirt with a green high-collar and a large green stripe on his chest, four small black/gray blasters strapped to his back, four black wristbands, long black pants with green pockets, and no shoes. His name is Manny Armstrong, the Leader of the Plumbers' Helpers.

The second of the Alien Hybrids is a 5'6-feet-tall, semi-armored, 15-year-old Female Human/Kineceleran Hybrid as she resembles a velociraptor-like alien with small green eyes and black lines running down them, black lips, C-Cup Breasts, three-fingered long clawed slim arms, her elbows/legs are sharply pointed, Dark Blue Skin, an upright slender build, a perky bubbly ass with a long dark blue tail, large black orbs on her feet, and her outfit consists of a black cone-like helmet with a sliding light blue protective visor, a sleeveless green vest with two black stripes on the sides, a short-sleeved black shirt underneath, and long black pants with green pockets. Her name is Helen Wheels, Pierce's Adopted Little Sister and a member of the Plumbers' Helpers.

The third of the Alien Hybrids is a 4'5-feet-tall, 10-year-old Male Human/Pyronite Hybrid as he resembles a plasma-based fiery orange being with a flaming orange head that has a rock-like faceplate, no nose/ears, his tongue was made out of orange fire, a dark red collarbone that resembles a volcano, thin large hands/forearms, his body was composed of a super hot orange inner plasma that was covered by dark red/black rocks, a crack on his chest that is shaped like a flame, a lean slim built, his feet have a slight oval-like design with only two toes and one back toe, and his whole body was radiating with extreme orange heat. His name is Alan Albright, a member of the Plumbers' Helpers.

The fourth and final of the Alien Hybrids is a 6-feet-tall, 16-year-old Male Human/Citrakayah Hybrid as he resembles a feline-like alien with pupilless purple eyes, a triangle-shaped nose, blue/black spikes sprouting out of his shoulders/face/back, blue spike-like blades on his arms/legs, four-fingered hands, a humanoid body, no toed feet, and his outfit consists of a blue/black mask-like fin's around his eyes, a black suit-like color scheme with his hands/legs/chest being colored blue, a blue thunderbolt-like design down on his chest, a blue triangle design on his back. His name is Carmine Torreto, a member of the Plumbers' Helpers.

"Ha, ha, ha, did you see the look on that DNAlien's face when we roped him?" An amused Manny says while dropping down from the truck as Alan flies over to jump off from his floating flaming rock and landed on the ground as a burst of orange flames covered his body, and we see Alan morphing back into his Human Form.

Alan Albright had now transformed into his Human Form, which consisted of him being a 4'5-feet-tall, 10-year-old African-American Male Human/Pyronite with black eyes, short curly black hair, thin black eyebrows, pointy ears, a small stumpy nose, a sharp chin, Light Brown Skin, a short skinny build, and his outfit consists of a long-sleeved orange hoodie with a symbol of a basketball that was surrounded by yellow flames in the middle, a blank tank top underneath, long skinny blue jeans, and a pair of white/orange shoes.

"Yeah, it was hilarious, man," Alan says with a chuckle as he and Manny shared a high five as Carmine rolled his eyes playfully before noticing that Helen was staring down at the ground somberly as he turned to her.

"Hey, Helen, are you okay?"

"I-I'm okay. I just...I just wish Pierce was here." Helen says with a sad tone as Carmine, Manny, and Alan all lowered their heads solemnly as they nodded.

"Me too, Helen, me too," Carmine says while going over to hug Helen.

"Me three," Alan added in.

"Me four," Manny said as Helen scoffed and rolled her eyes as she turned to glare at him,

"Yeah, right."

"What is that supposed to mean?" Manny asked irritably as Alan shrugged while placing his hands on the front pockets of his hoodie.

"I don't know, man. You and Pierce hardly get along. You two always keep arguing over every single mission."

"What? No, we didn't." A stubborn Manny says while shaking his head.

"Oh, really? 'Who's in charge? Do it this way. No, my plan's better'. Ring any bells?" Carmine asked dryly with a small glare as Manny opened his mouth to protest...but then shut up as he growled.

"Okay, yeah, we disagreed, but I don't actually hate Pierce. I mourned him just as much as you all did when he died. I'm just trying to do what we all agreed to do three years ago. Fry every DNAlien we can find." Manny says just as something on their truck beeped loudly as Carmine zipped over to get inside the truck.

"What do we got?" An excited Alan asked while he and the others ran over to the truck as Carmine got out of the vehicle with a serious glare on his face.

"Eight of them and they are close."

"How close?" Manny asked stoically as Carmine pointed at the building.

"They are inside of the Sewage Plant," Carmine says, surprising the group as they then grow serious, and the Plumbers' Helpers rushed over to the Sewage Plant as Manny pulled out an Alien Scanning Machine and held it up as he clicked his teeth in annoyance.

"Can't get a lock on 'em. Stupid machine."

"Want me to try?" Helen asked as Manny shakes his head.

"No."

"Can I try it?" Alan asked with a mischievous grin as Manny felt a thick mark appear on his head.

"No, you will just burn it like you do with all other stuff."

"I already said I was sorry," Alan says with a defensive tone while crossing his arms as Helen rubbed his head to calm him down as Manny rolled his eyes but then turned back to the Sewage Plant as his Alien Scanning Machine was able to catch five heat signatures, which confused him as he turned back to Carmine.

"I thought you said that there were eight DNAliens?"

"Yeah, I did."

"Then why am I only getting five heat signatures?"

"Maybe they are wearing something to disguise themselves and forgot to give it to the others. I don't know." Carmine says with a shrug as, unknown to them, Manny was actually scanning Team Alien Force, and the only reason why there were only five head signatures is that Ship, Gwen, and Knight don't have one due to either being made of living nanites or energy beings.

"Ugh, whatever," Manny says while rolling his eyes as he turned back to scan Team Alien Force and tried to use his machine to eavesdrop on them.

"...Are you sure you know where you're going, Sherlock?"

"For once, can you close your mouth and open your eyes? Just follow the footprints."

"Can you guys stop arguing for five seconds please?"

"For real, there could be a guard or something, so be quiet."

"I'd swear that alien made it here."

"Well, there's no sign of him now, so we might as well leave."

"Since our mission is a bust, can we please stop by a McDonald's? Ship and I are really hungry."

"Ship! Ship! Ship!" Kevin, Ben, Vanessa, Gwen, Shadow, Knight, Sabrina, and Ship said in unison as Manny was heavily confused by their conversation.

"What did they say?" Helen asked curiously as Manny shrugged while putting away his Alien Scanning Machine.

"Doesn't matter. Let's dust them."

"Yeah, the heat is on!" Alan cheered as he and Manny shared a high five as they were about to run forward but were stopped by Helen speeding over to appear in front of him.

"I swear, Manny, you are a bad influence on Alan. Look, we can't confront them yet. The Eradicannon needs more time to recharge."

"Yeah, besides, we are outnumbered. I have a plan, why don't we follow after them and find out what they are up to?" Carmine suggested as an eager Helen nodded.

"Exactly and I mean, who knows, they could lead us to a whole nest of DNAliens," Helen says before she, Carmine, and Alan noticed that Manny was suddenly gone as they all turned their heads and spotted Manny running over to then crouched down as he leaped up high into the air. "Ugh..." Helen says while facepalming as Carmine patted her back to comfort her.

"Hey! Wait for us!" Alan screamed while morphing into his Pyronite Form as he lowered his arms and fired dual streams of orange flames that propelled him up into the air as Helen and Carmine turned to share a look and nodded as the Human/Kineceleran Hybrid zoomed off to a random direction while the Human/Citrakayah Hybrid was quick to use his Super Speed to rush over to run up the wall as he appeared on the roof of the Sewage Plant just as Alan flew over to land beside him as the Duo were surprised to see Manny standing over the ledge of the building and glared down at Team Alien Force, who were getting into Kevin's Car as the scowling Human/Tetramand Hybrid pull out his blasters and were about to shoot down at our faithful heroes, but thankfully Carmine zoomed onto the scene and was able to swipe away all of his weapons with his Super Speed.

"You never listen, do you?" Carmine asked blankly with a matter-of-fact tone as a surprised Manny composed himself and snatched back his weapons with an annoyed huff.

"What are you doing? You are letting them get away!"

"No, I'm not. Look." Carmine says while pointing downwards as the Boys spotted a familiar blue/green/black blur zooming past Kevin's Car, placing an Alien Tracking Device on it as Helen was able to run back to the others and held out her Alien Tracking Device with a smug grin on her face as she and Carmine shared a high five while Alan powered down and gave them a thumbs up as Manny grumbled.

"August 10, we zapped another DNAlien. Third one this month." A Male Alien Hybrid says as we fast forward in time, and we see the Plumbers' Helpers at their Base of Operations with the Alien Speedy Hybrids inside the Main Room as Helen sat in Carmine's lap, and we see the Lovebirds staring down at a small alien device that held a recording of the past.

The Fifth Alien Hybrid is a 5'8-feet-tall, 16-year-old Male Human/Porcupinous Hybrid with black eyes, long dark brown spikes that act as his hair with a white streak in the middle, pointy ears, a small nose, a sharp chin, several light brown spikes coming out of his face/forearms, Light Brown Skin, a tall muscularly toned slim build, and his outfit consists of a sleeveless green vest with two black stripes on the sides, a short-sleeved black shirt underneath, long black pants with green pockets, and a pair of knee-length green combat boots. His name is Pierce Wheels, Helen's Adopted Brother and the Former 'Deceased' Leader of the Plumbers' Helpers.

"Only something weird happened. We had the creep cornered. I got my energy lash wrapped around one arm, but just before Manny hooked him, he flashed a Plumber's badge. Figured it had to be fake, but now I don't know. What if it was real? What we if were wrong about him?" Past Pierce says with a guilty and confused tone as he was suddenly surprised when Past Helen, Carmine, Manny, and Alan appeared on the scene.

"Hey, Helen, why do you and Carmine always go up here every night?"

"Well, Alan, you see, sometimes, we like to look at the stars and think about what's out there."

"Out there? Out there is why we're all contaminated freaks! It's why we're kicking alien butt, so nobody has to go through what happened to us!"

"Oh my god, Manny, can you stop being overdramatic! You just ruined the mood!" Past Alan, Helen, Manny, and Carmine says as Past Pierce growled angrily and whirled around to glare at his team.

"Would you guys stop it?! Every day, it's the same fight! I can't baby-sit you forever, you know?!"

"...I know..." Helen says somberly while shutting off the device as Carmine hugged her close to his body and allowed her to cry into his chest as this sad moment was interrupted by the doors opening, and Alan walked in excitedly.

"Hey, guys, look, what Manny and I..." Alan says before trailing off as he spotted what was going on and frowned concernedly. "Uh, am I intruding on something?"

"No, no, don't worry, we are okay," Helen says while putting on her visor to hide her tears as she jumped off Carmine's lap and said person stood up from his chair as a worried and confused Alan nodded before the Trio ran out of the Main Room as they rushed over to meet up with Manny in the Computer Room. "What's the sitch?"

"Oh, good you guys are here. Alan and I want to show you something."

"What is it?" Carmine asked curiously as Manny whirled around to begin pressing various buttons on the keyboard.

"I pulled up the security feed from the Sewage Plant thanks to one of Pierce's computers," Manny says while pulling up the security feed from the Sewage Plant onto their Alien Supercomputer, and it showed a video of Team Alien Force.

"Those are aliens? They look human." A surprised Helen says as Alan shrugged while pointing up at Shadow, Knight, and Ship.

"Not all of them, though."

"Some of them must be wearing ID Masks. I would have caught them if you two hadn't stopped me." Manny says while glaring at Helen and Carmine as Alan rolled his eyes in annoyance.

"Oh, here we go," Alan says while taking a couple of steps back to let the incoming argument rang out.

"It was eight against four. We didn't like those odds." Carmine says with a glare as Helen nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, we stopped you from starting a fight we couldn't win."

"Pierce would have done it," Manny says bitterly as Alan gasped in shock and covered his mouth while Carmine looked furious at what he said as Helen was absolutely livid.

"No, he wouldn't! And don't you dare use him as an excuse!"

"Seriously, Manny, Pierce found all this alien junk and made it work, Pierce brought us together, and when Pierce was in charge, we were careful!" Carmine screamed with a glare as Helen nodded while pulling down her visor to show her tearful wrathful face.

"The one time we weren't..." Helen says while choking back a sob as she turned around to run into Carmine's arms, and he began rubbing her back as the Human/Citrakayah Hybrid glares at Manny.

"Not cool, man. Not cool." Alan says with a stern tone while crossing his arms as a guilty Manny raised his arms.

"I'm sorry, okay? Look, tomorrow, we'll track down their signal. We'll take it slow. We'll be careful, just the way Pierce did it." Manny says reassuringly as the Plumbers' Helpers said nothing but turned around to leave as, once they were gone, the Human/Tetramand Hybrid glared up at the video of Team Alien Force. "But once we find them, then we'll handle things my way."


"What are they doing?" Manny asked curiously as we cue to the next day, late at night, and we see the Plumbers' Helpers driving around in their truck with Manny and Helen at the front while Carmine and Alan were at the back as they followed after Team Alien Force, who were riding around on Kevin's Car as Helen was trying to listen in on them with their Alien Spying Equipment.

"I can't lock in on them, but it sounds like they're arguing."

"Do you guys think they know we're tailing them?" Carmine asked as Manny grinned mischievously.

"Why don't we make sure?" Manny asked just as Team Alien Force parked near a Gas Station as a Fuel Tank Truck could be seen driving nearby, and the Human/Tetramand Hybrid suddenly pulled out one of his Alien Blasters as he opened fire on the Fuel Tank Truck, striking its tires and causing it to swerve across the ground uncontrollably as it crashed right into the Gas Station, breaking one of the Gas Pumps and the Driver got knocked out by the collision as the top of his truck got on fire.

"If that tanker goes up, we're talking about a major bonfire." A worried Ben says as he and the others got out of Kevin's Car. "Shadow, Vanessa, and I will deal with the truck and the fire. Kevin and Knight? Save the Driver. Sabrina, Ship? Do crowd control, and Gwen? Help them give cover." Ben ordered as Team Alien Force nodded and ran off to their part of the mission.

"What the hell, man?! Are you crazy!?" An angry Carmine exclaimed as he, Alan, and Helen glared at Manny.

"Seriously, and you call me reckless?! Even I know that blasting a Fuel Tank Truck into a Gas Station is a REALLY bad plan!" Alan screamed with a scowl as Helen nodded with an angered huff.

"Yeah, I can't believe you did that!"

"So what? They're getting away!" Manny screamed indignantly as the Plumbers' Helpers growled angrily before Helen and Carmine zoomed out of the truck as Alan and Manny did the same.

"Alright, everyone! Step back and let the Superheroes do their job!" Sabrina screamed while holding Ship, who had morphed himself into a megaphone as Sabrina ran over to a crowd of curious/worried onlookers, and they were staring over at the random little girl confusedly until they gasped in shock when a hidden Gwen raised her glowing pink mana hands as she used her magical alien powers to rip the concrete up from the ground and pushed it back, creating a large wall of concrete that prevented the crowd of people from both interfering with the fight and from seeing Team Alien Force use their alien powers in public.

"How come we always get the easy jobs?" Kevin asked with a playful grin as we see him and Knight rushing over to the flaming truck.

"Nothing we do is ever easy, Kev."

"True," Kevin says with a shrug just as they reached the side of the truck as Knight summoned her mana tendrils to latch onto the truck and ripped it off its hinges as Kevin then reached in to pull out the unconscious driver and the Duo tried to run away, but stopped as they noticed that there was a trail of fuel leading from the truck to the Gas Station and that a loose spark of flames collided down against it, sending a trail of blazing fire towards the Gas Station as Kevin reacted quickly and reached over to grab Knight's arm as he yanked them down into the ground and the Osmosian Teenager used his free hand to touch the ground, coating himself in Concrete Armor as Kevin then phased them down into the ground as if it was water just as the Gas Station blew up and a big fiery explosion rang out as, once it died down, we see Kevin phasing them back up from underneath the ground safely.

"How did you do that?" An amazed Knight as a smirking Kevin shrugged.

"Don't know, just did it," Kevin says with a laugh as he then turned back to the Alien Shapeshifters. "Anyway, your turn," Kevin says as Ben, Vanessa, and Shadow nod before glancing down at their Omnitrix, Zennatrix, and Xennotrix as the Trio then slammed their hands down into their devices, and three green/purple flashes of lights rang out.

"Big Chill!" Big Chill exclaimed while flying up into the air as he sticks a heroic pose.

"Azula!" Azula exclaimed while flapping her wings as she then flew up into the air with a mighty roar.

Once the flash of purple light died down, we see that Shadow has transformed into an 8-feet-tall Male Orishan as he resembles a dark purple metallic armored mollusk-like alien with pupilless light purple eyes, no hair/nose, a dark gray mouth that does not move when he speaks, black spots on his dark purple metallic shoulders/legs, dark purple four finger-clawed arms with portholes on his hand, behind his dark purple legs and on the top of his arms are small dark gray spikes, his lower torso is dark grey with two spikes on the side of it, and had one dark gray spike on each of his dark purple feet as the Xennotrix symbol was located on his chest. Shadow has now transformed into-

"Water Hazard!" The Now-Named Water Hazard exclaimed heroically before reaching down to grab his Xennotrix Symbol on his chest as he rotated counter-clockwise, and the core popped out as Shadow was quick to slam his hand down on the symbol, and instantly, his Xennotrix Symbol unsheathed four spikes in a diagonal directional formation as Water Hazard's body was slowly consumed by a bright purple luminescent energy field and a big flash of light occurred as, once it dies down, we see an Evolved Orishan standing in his place.

Water Hazard's body had changed drastically as we see that he was now 12-feet-tall with him resembling a tall humanoid muscular crab as he has a small dark navy blue head with small slit red eyes, four small red crab legs attached to his head, a giant dark navy blue shell with small pupilless red eyes and multiple red portholes on it, a pair of huge muscular dark navy arms with claws for hands as they both had silver nozzles on them and multiple red portholes on them, a dark red scaly front with multiple red crab legs attached to it, a pair of thick dark navy legs with three red claws and multiple red portholes on them and has the Xennotrix Symbol planted on his chest. Shadow has now transformed into his Evolved Orishan State that was named-

"Ultimate Water Hazard!" The Now-Named Ultimate Water Hazard exclaimed loudly while briefly sticking a pose as he then held out his giant claws and fired dual huge torrents of water that collided against the raging inferno on the Gas Station with Big Chill flying down to breathe out a big burst of icy wind as the Boys were able to put out the flames and Azula flew over to latch onto the truck as she then flew high up into the air and began twirling around as Vanessa then tossed the flaming truck into the air with her Superhuman Strength just as it blew up as a big explosion occurred in the night sky.

"What the what?!" A surprised Helen and Carmine shouted, unable to believe what they had just seen as they then flinched in surprise when a glaring Alan flew onto the scene while riding around on a flaming comet as he held out his arm and fired dual streams of fire that collided against an airborne Azula's body, not hurting her whatsoever as she turned to him in bewilderment and a now nervous Alan began spamming multiple fireballs at her.

"Hey, freaks!" Manny screamed as a surprised Kevin and Knight whirled around to see said person holding up Kevin's Car with a big cocky smirk on his face. "Catch!"

"Not my ride!" A worried Kevin whined as Manny grunted and tossed the car over at them, colliding against a surprised Kevin and Knight as they were sent flying back.

"Kevin!/Knight!/Ship Ship!" Gwen and Sabrina shouted concernedly while trying to run over to help them out but were stopped by the Alien Hybrid Lovebirds speeding over to them as Carmine grabbed Sabrina and Ship and whisked them away as he placed them on a nearby bench and patted a bewildered Sabrina's head as, with Helen, we see her rushing around a surprised Gwen's in a circle, swiftly creating a large blue/green/black tornado that lifted up a screaming Anodite into the air.

Annoyed by the mysterious Pyronite, Azula opened up her mouth and fired out a large stream of hot blue fire that collided against a surprised Alan, obviously not hurting him, but it did break apart his flaming comet and knocked him out as he flew through the air and reverted back into his Human Form as a shocked Azula worriedly flew down and grabbed the Human/Pyronite Hybrid as she sets him down into the ground. Still screaming in surprise and whirling around uncontrollably, Gwen then gasped sharply as the tornado eventually dissipated and started falling down through the air as Ben and Shadow spotted this and reacted quickly as Ultimate Water Hazard held out his arms and fired out huge dual streams of water into the air as Big Chill breathes in a big stream of icy wind that collided against the stream of water, creating a huge ice slide as a yelping Gwen fell down into it and slide down over to crash down into the ground with a small pained moan.

"Ugh..." A groaning Kevin says while he and Knight shakingly got up from the ground as they tried to go back to their friends, only for Manny to slam his fists down at their heads, easily knocking them out as he lifted them up into the air and Helen and Carmine zoomed over to appear in front of him.

"You see that? They saved that Driver."

"And they saved Alan," Carmine added in while pointing over at the rest of Team Alien Force Members as Ultimate Water Hazard, Sabrina, and Ship run over to Gwen with Azula and Big Chill flying over to land on the ground as Ben, Vanessa, and Shadow Quick Changed back into their Normal Forms with three green/purple flashes of lights.

"Who cares? Two of them are hurt. Now's your chance to take 'em." Manny says with a big grin on his face as Helen frowned and shakes her head as she used her Super Speed to zoom over and grab an unconscious Alan, and zipped back over to the Plumbers' Helpers. "No, not until we talk."

"I agree," Carmine says while grabbing Manny as he and Helen then rushed them back over to their truck.

"Are you okay?" Vanessa asked concernedly as Gwen got up from the ground and rubbed her ass with a moan.

"Other than my ass being frozen, I'm peachy."

"Wait, guys, where's Kevin?" Sabrina asked as Shadow looked around.

"And where's Knight?" Shadow asked concernedly as, unknown to them, the Plumbers' Helpers can be seen driving off in the background. An hour later, we cue over to the Rust Bucket, and we see Ben pacing around worriedly while Vanessa and Sabrina could be seen sitting in the Driver and Passenger Seats with Ship lying on his master's lap as Shadow and Gwen sat on their chairs.

"...and what really bugs me is that they were Alien Species that resembled the ones that I had in the past. Four Arms, XLR8, and Heatblast. None of it makes any sense."

"I know it doesn't, baby, but don't worry, we can handle them and save Kevin and Knight soon enough," Vanessa says reassuringly as a curious Sabrina turned to Gwen, who was floating above her chair in a cross-legged position as her eyes/hands glowed pink.

"Gwen, what are you doing?"

"Shhh, Gwen's concentrating." Shadow chastises as Ben raised a confused eyebrow.

"On what exactly?"

"I'm at one with the cosmic mana, feeling the energy of the universe flowing around and through me," Gwen explained as a dial-up tone can be seen ringing in Ben and Vanessa's heads as they had lost looks on their faces.

"Basically, Gwen is trying to locate Kevin and Knight," Shadow explained with a deadpanned frown as Ben and Vanessa nodded in understanding.

"Yep, and I was able to locate him," Gwen says with a smug grin as she floated down to sit on her chair, and her eyes/hands stopped glowing pink. "Now, all we have to do is rescue them."

"Oh, is that all? Prey tail, how do you think we will go over to rescue Kevin and Knight when none of us can drive? I mean, we can use our Alien Devices, but I don't want us to run out of energy so soon." Ben says with crossed arms as the Cunnigham Sisters shared a sly grin.

"Don't worry, Benji, we have a way to get there," Vanessa says as Sabrina nodded while glancing down at Ship.

"Hit it, Ship!" Sabrina shouted as Ship nodded before turning his body into liquid as he began possessing the Rust Bucket and covered it in black/green goo as, much to Team Alien Force's surprise, the Ship-Covered Rust Bucket activated its hoverwheels and slowly floated up into the air as it then took off into the air.

"...What were you two lovebirds thinking?!" An angry Manny asked as we cue over to the Plumbers' Helpers Base of Operations and we see Helen tending to Alan, who had thankfully didn't suffer any serious injuries as Carmine was talking with a very pissed-off Manny while a now conscious Kevin and Knight can be seen being trapped inside a yellow energy bubble. "We had 'em on the ropes! We could have nailed eight monsters at once!"

"Monsters? That's a laugh, coming from a Halloween reject like you." Kevin says with a grin as Knight chuckled.

"Yeah, have you seen yourself in a mirror lately? Oh, wait, you can't since you are too big for a normal mirror." Knight says with a taunting tone as Manny growled angrily and marched over to them.

"Sounds like the alien dirtbags are asking for another round of ass-kicking!"

"Oh, big talk coming from a dork who uses sneak attacks like a pussy!" Knight snarked as a glaring Kevin nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, let us out of this bubble, and then we'll see what you got!"

"Oh, no, there's more of them," Alan says with a playful tone as Helen and Carmine rolled their eyes and walked up to their teammates.

"Quiet! You sound like a couple of 5-year-olds fighting on the playground!"

"I'm not anything like him/them!" Manny, Kevin, and Knight screamed in unison while growling at each other as the Human/Tetramand Hybrid then reached his hand through the energy bubble and latched onto Kevin and Knight's faces with his four hands as he began trying to yank off their ID Masks, but failed for obvious reasons.

"Manny, stop! They are not wearing ID Masks!" Carmine screamed worriedly as a surprised Manny lets go of Kevin and Knight and stepped back as he glared at his teammates.

"It doesn't matter! They are aliens, and I say we feed them to the Eradicannon!"

"Okay, first off, jackass, you all are aliens too. Second, what the hell is an Eradicannon?" A bewildered Knight asked as a smirking Manny pointed over at the Null Void Projector that was still inside their truck.

"A disintegrator beam. It turns scum like you two into dust."

"...That's not a disintegrator, you doofus. It's a Null Void Projector." Kevin stated bluntly with blank eyes as the Plumbers' Helpers gave him a surprised look.

"A Null Void what who?" A bewildered Alan asked as Knight shrugged.

"Probably a Mark I, which means that it's the oldest version there is. They stopped making these things since it takes too long for them to charge and too heavy to move around properly." Knight explained as the Plumbers' Helpers continued staring at them in shock before turning to each other as they huddled up.

"So what do you think of what they are saying?" Alan asked curiously as Manny scoffed and rolled his eyes.

"I think it's bullshit."

"What if you're wrong, Manny?" Helen asked as Carmine nodded.

"Yeah, maybe they aren't evil?"

"Guys, stop talking crazy. Look, just stay quiet and let me try to find out what type of Aliens they are." Manny says while pulling out an Alien Tablet as he pressed several buttons, and it showed them video footage with Pierce's face on it.

"I'm still working on that list of aliens we fried. It's not complete, but... Ectonurite...Citrakayah...Piscciss Volanns...Pyronite...Porcupinous...Vulpamancer...Tetramand...Kineceleran..." Pierce says while showing them images of each alien species that he mentions as Manny growled angrily.

"Got to be one that looks like them in here."

"Manny, listen to us. Those two, whatever they are, have Plumber badges." Helen says as Manny cocked his head at her confusedly.

"So?"

"So, there was something in Pierce's Diary about one of the aliens we nailed last summer having a Plumber's Badge too," Carmine says urgently as Manny scoffed and rolled his eyes.

"Oh, big deal. If he has a badge, it's a fake. They and their pals, they're all dirty alien freaks."

"Then why would they save that driver and me? Why did they stop the truck from exploding?" Alan pressed, seeing Helen and Carmine's point as even he is realizing that this situation didn't look right.

"I don't know, and I don't care. They're all aliens, and you know what we do with aliens." Manny says ominously as Kevin and Knight glared down at him stoically.

"Hey, Gwen, are you okay?" Vanessa asked Gwen curiously while Team Alien Force were still flying through the air, thanks to the help of the Ship-Covered Rust Bucket as the Gang noticed that the Young Anodite seems to be in a bad mood.

"I'm just worried. That's all."

"About Kevin?" Ben asked as Gwen rolled her eyes and crossed her arms.

"Well, yeah, what else? We need to find him before, you know before something bad happens...not that I care or anything. I mean, come on. How could anyone care about a person who is that rude and undependable and annoying? It's ridiculous. How could you guys even say something like that?"

"Actually, we didn't say anything," Sabrina says with a giggle as a blushing and embarrassed Gwen sunk herself into her seat further.

"Don't worry, Gwen, I'm worried about Knight too." Shadow says as a sheepish Gwen nodded.


"The Aliens are heading this way," Helen says to the others stoically as everyone nodded and Manny made sure to grab his energy snares and his blasters while Alan powered up into his Pyronite Form while Helen and Carmine rushed over to grab their energy snares and blasters as the Plumbers' Helpers then rushed out of their Base of Operations.

"How close are they?"

"Very." A familiar voice rang out as the surprised Plumbers' Helpers whirled around to see Team Alien Force standing before them as Ben, Vanessa, and Shadow could be seen holding up their Omnitrix, Zennatrix, and Animatrix threateningly while Gwen held up her glowing pink mana hands as Sabrina and Ship were nowhere in sight.

"Now, give us back our friends," Gwen demanded before swiftly pulling up a mana shield as Helen, Manny, and Camine immediately opened laser fire at them as a grinning Ben turned to her.

"Friends? Does that include Kevin?"

"Ooooooooooh," Vanessa says childishly as Gwen blushed in embarrassment and glares at them.

"Teammate, co-worker, whatever. Could we talk about this later?"

"Hey, we're not the ones who-,"

"Vanessa, look out!" Ben screamed worriedly after spotting Alan glancing up and held out his hand to fire a big fireball that collided against a wall above them, causing various lose pieces of concrete to fall down as Ben quickly rushed over to push an endangered Vanessa away but got hit by the falling debris as he crashed down into the ground.

"Ben!" Vanessa yelled worriedly while rushing over to check on her near-unconscious boyfriend as a gasping Gwen turned to Shadow.

"Shadow, help me fight off these guys," Gwen says as Shadow nodded, wanting Vanessa to stay back to watch over Ben, as he then glanced down at his Animatrix and slammed his hand down on it as a flash of red light occurs.

Once the flash of red light dies down, we see that Shadow had now transformed into a 5'8-feet-tall Male Chelydra Klinfran as he resembled a giant turtle with a large head that has small pupilless red eyes, no ears, two small holes that act as his nose, a big snout, big stumpy black three-clawed arms, dark yellow skin, a huge black/gray shell with light red lines, a huge muscular stout turtle-like build, a small dark yellow tail, and big stumpy black three-clawed legs as he had the Animatrix Symbol located on his right arm. His name is-

"Turtlestorm!" The Now Named Turtlestorm exclaimed through the communication system placed inside the Animatrix Symbol just as Helen and Carmine rushed over to try and attack him, but Shadow was able to create an electromagnetic purple energy pulse that attracted a surprised Helen's wheels and cause her to spiral out of control as she collided against a grunting Carmine and they were sent crashing down into the ground.

"Turbo!" Gwen chanted while raising her mystical blue hands as she created a huge gust of wind that collided with a surprised Alan's body, putting out his flames and reverting him back into his Human Form as he was sent flying back, and a growling Manny was able to barrel through the winds as he rushed over to throw multiple punches at Gwen, who was able to avoid a few punches but was forced to put up a Magic Blue Shield to block Manny's lower punches as he began smashing against her shield relentlessly and Turtlestorm spotted this as he narrowed his eyes and slammed his hand his Animatrix Symbol as Shadow Quick Change into a new Alien Predator Form with a flash of red light.

Once the flash of red light died down, we see that Shadow has now transformed into a 20-feet-tall Male Two-Headed Spider with two heads that have pupilless red sixteen eyes, eight white claws attach to his heads, two large white-beaked mouths, a black neck, Dark Red Skin with Large Black Spots On Them, six dark red legs with black edges, a spider-like huge build, and has the Animatrix Symbol planted on top of his body. His name is-

"Two Headed Spider!" The Now-Named Two Headed Spider exclaimed through the communication system placed inside the Animatrix Symbol as he rushed over to Manny, who flinched in fear and shock as he tried to shoot him down with his alien blasters, but the Two Headed Spider was able to easily tank through his attack and ran over to slam his arm across his body, sending a screaming Manny flying away and crash down into the ground as Gwen gave him a grateful look, but then spotted something that made her gasp as she then composed herself and narrow her eyes.

"Cotego!" Gwen chanted while firing a ring of mystical blue energy as it flew past a surprised Two Headed Spider and it flew over to collide against a shocked airborne Alan, who was trying to do a flying flaming tackle maneuver but was teleported away as the Duo glanced up and spotted a screaming Alan teleporting 30-feet up into the air as he started falling down and Two Headed Spider narrowed his eyes as he raised his arm and slammed his hand into his Animatrix Symbol as we see Shadow Quick Changing into a new Alien Predator Form with a flash of red light.

Once the flash of red light died down, we see that Shadow has now transformed into a 15-foot-tall Male Crabdozer as he resembles a rock-based crab-like alien with a rhino-like face that has sunken small pupilless red eyes, a long dark purple/gray rock horn, small dark purple/gray ears, a giant mouth with jagged rock-like teeth and a pink fire-proof tongue, a dark purple/grey color scheme, a huge crab-like rocky build with big and small spikes planted onto them, six crab-like legs with spikes on them, and has the Animatrix Symbol planted on his chest. His name is-

"Crabdozer!" The Now-Named Crabdozer exclaimed through the communication system placed inside the Animatrix Symbol as he opened up his mouth and was able to catch a screaming Alan inside of his mouth as Shadow closed it, and the groaning Human/Pyronite Hybrid felt Crabdozer's fire-suppressant saliva dousing out his fire, causing him to stay in his Molten Rock Form as Alan grunted and reached up his hands to grab Crabdozer's mouth as he struggled to free himself.

"Pssst, Kevin, Knight." A familiar voice rang out as Kevin and Knight, who took a small nap, woke up and glanced down to see Sabrina standing in front of them with Ship on her head.

"Oh, great, we needed rescuing and they sent us the Munchkin," Kevin says with a groan as Sabrina glared up at him with a huff.

"Well, with that kind of attitude, I guess we will leave you guys trapped here forever," Sabrina says as a scolding Knight elbowed Kevin and turned to smile down at her sweetly.

"Ignore him, sweetheart. Please release us."

"Thank you, I will. Ship do your thing."

"Ship." Ship says while bopping his head against the device projecting the yellow energy forcefield, disabling it as Kevin and Knight fall down into the ground.

"Thanks, guys. Now stay back. We will handle things from here." Knight says while lighting up her hands with mana energy as Kevin reached over to grab a crowbar and coated himself in metal armor as they then ran ahead.

"Come on, Ben, wake up. Wake up, please." A concerned, teary-eyed Vanessa says while trying in vain to wake up an unconscious Ben as Gwen can be seen firing multiple Mana Discs at a recovered Helen and Carmine, who keeps zipping across the battlefield rapidly as Crabdozer can still be seen holding a groaning and injured Alan inside of his mouth with an angry and recovered Manny trying to shoot him down, but failed miserably as, before they could react, something blew up behind them, and the startled Team Alien Force and the Plumbers' Helpers whirled around to see a grinning Knight and a smirking Kevin bursting out of the building through the wall, creating a large hole in the building as they landed down on the ground.

"Nothing like a little iron in your diet to perk you right up. Knight, slingshot me." Kevin ordered as Knight nodded and created multiple mana tendrils that reached over to wrap around the Osmosian's waist and launched him into the air, right into a surprised Manny's face as they crashed down into the ground hard enough that a small crater was formed around them.

"Stand still, will ya?!" An annoyed Gwen as she was trying in vain to shoot down the Alien Speedsters.

"Uh, Gwen? I'm pretty sure that they obviously do not want to stand still since nobody wants to get hit by mana."

"Not now, Shadow!" Gwen snapped with a thick mark on her head as Ben groaned and suddenly woke up as he regained consciousness.

"Ohh. I've got to start wearing a helmet." Ben says groggily while rubbing his slightly bleeding injured head.

"Ben, you are okay!" A smiling Vanessa says while hugging Ben, who smiled weakly as he moaned in pain.

"I'm fine. My head hurts like hell, though," Ben says with a pout as Vanessa comforted him by gently kissing his forehead.

"Don't worry, if you transform into your Alien Form, you will be healed right up," Vanessa says as Ben nodded shakily and the Young Couple activated their Omnitrix and Zennatrix as they began circling through their alien playlists and Manny spots this as he narrowed his eyes and grabbed Kevin as he threw him over to collide against an incoming Knight as the Human/Tetramand Hybrid then pulled out his keys and pressed a button on it as the Plumbers' Helper's Truck drove towards them and the back opened up to reveal the Null Void Projector as it activated itself.

Gasping worriedly, Crabdozer spits out Alan and tried to rush over to help out his friends, only for Helen and Carmine to rush over to start running around him, creating a huge blue/green/black tornado that sends a startled Crabdozer flying up into the air as he then crashed near Ben and Vanessa, who thankfully turned around to leap away to safety but ended up crashing down into the ground as a concerned Gwen tried to run over to her friends, only for a recovered Alan to ignite his flames and threw a large fireball at the Anodite with her barely being able to put up a mana shield in time as a big explosion occurred and it send her flying back as Gwen crashed down into the ground with a pained moan.

"Now let's finish 'em!" A glaring Manny screamed while capturing an injured Ben and Vanessa by their wrists thanks to his four energy snares as he lifted them up into the air with the Lovebirds being unable to reach their Omnitrix and Zennatrix as the Human/Tetramand Hybrid then tossed them inside the Null Void Projector and Ben and Vanessa screamed as they were sent flying inside of the machine.

"Vanessa! Ben!" A concerned Sabrina screamed just as she and Ship ran out of the Plumbers' Helpers Base of Operations as a recovered, Kevin, Knight, Crabdozer, and Gwen got up from the floor as they were absolutely stunned that their friend, sister, and cousin were teleported over to the Null Void, but then everyone gasped in shock as the Null Void Projector suddenly glowed brightly and black/green goo started covering it as the energy within turned from red/white to green/white and, soon enough, a grunting Coldphase flew out of it as she hovered in mid-air and the black/green goo phased out of the machine as it splattered down into the ground before transforming back into its true form as the being beeped cockily.

Standing before them was an 8-feet-tall Male Galvanic Mechamorph with a small green circle planted right where his face should be as it acts as his eye/mouth, large thick four-fingered arms, a black exterior with multiple green stripes that travel across his body and resembled circuitry, his front torso was colored green with black circuitry, a humanoid muscularly slim build, large stump-like feet, and has the Omnitrix Symbol planted on his chest. His name is-

"Upgrade!" Upgrade exclaimed while speaking in Ben's voice, albeit it sounded robotic, as he glanced down at his arms and his face circle morphed into a happy face emoji. "Ah, it's good to have an old Classic Alien back in action again. Now, I have one Classic Alien down, nine Classic Aliens to go."

"Uh, Ben? You told me that you had 25 Aliens when you were young, not just 10." Coldphase says while turning to raise an eyebrow at Upgrade, whose face circle morphed into a deadpan, annoyed face emoji.

"Don't spoil the moment, babe."

"I taught them that." A smug-faced Kevin says as Gwen turned to give him a deadpanned glare while Crabdozer, Knight, Sabrina, and Ship cheered that their friends weren't teleported over to the Null Void.

"No, you didn't."

"It's not a disintegrator." A stunned Helen says as Carmine nodded in agreement.

"They were telling the truth." A surprised and gleeful Carmine yelled as Manny growled angrily and stepped forward as he pulled out his blasters and fired numerous energy blasts at Upgrade, who was unfazed by the onslaught due to the laser blasts shooting through his body as he began energizing his biomechanical blood and, soon enough, Ben's eye circle started glowing brightly as he projected a powerful green plasma blast that collided against a surprised Manny, sending him flying away as a glaring Alan held out his hands and fired dual streams of hot flames at them, only for Coldphase to open up her mouth as she fired an icy wind blast that not only canceled out Alan's attack but also put out his flames, reverting him back into his Human Form as he was sent flying back and crashed down into the ground as Ben and Vanessa walked up to Helen and Carmine.

"Now put down your weapons and just listen for five minutes, okay?" An exasperated Upgrade said as Coldphase nodded in agreement while putting on her hood.

"Yeah, please, this whole misunderstanding bullshit is getting out of hand," Coldphase says as Helen and Carmine shared a look and nod as they put down their weapons, and 30 minutes later, we see Team Alien Force and Plumbers' Helpers standing outside of the Base of Operations with them being powered down or morphed back into their Human Forms as Vanessa and the others had finished explaining to everyone on what's going on.

"...So, we're all aliens?"

"Yep, although the correct term is Alien Hybrids," Vanessa says as Ben nodded.

"Yep, one of your parents must have been Human and the other an Alien."

"Whoa, heavy." A stunned Alan says with wide eyes as Manny crossed his arms with a glare and a scoff.

"Yeah? Then how come you three can switch back, but Helen, Carmine, and I can't?" Manny asked while talking about the Omnitrix, Zennatrix, and Xennatrix/Animatix Wielders as Ben grinned smugly.

"Luck of the draw."

"And Ben, Van, and I can switch forms thanks to our Alien Devices" Shadow added in as Helen gave him and Knight a curious look.

"So, you said that I resemble an alternate version of your adopted little sister?"

"Yep, although we couldn't recognize you before when you were running around," Knight says with a blushing warm smile as Kevin crossed his arms with a smirk and turned to Manny.

"Hey, so, honestly, you should be lucky that you can't turn into a Human. I mean, look at it this way, your Human Version is probably even uglier."

"You want to go another round?!" Manny asked aggressively as Kevin narrowed his eyes at him with a scowl.

"Anytime, pal!"

"Hey, tell your boyfriend to back off!" Helen demanded while speeding over to Gwen, who gasped offendedly as she glared at her.

"Why don't you tell your boyfriend to back off?!" Gwen screamed as she, Helen, Kevin, and Manny began arguing with each other as an annoyed Ben, Vanessa, and Shadow stepped forward.

"Hey, stop it, all of you!" Ben screamed as Vanessa nodded with a glare

"Seriously, my Little Sister acts more mature than you!"

"What are we? Your babysitters?" Shadow asked with a scoff as Carmine gave them a surprised look.

"Whoa, you guys sound like Pierce."

"Who?"

"My Brother," Helen says solemnly as she wheeled forward. "Pierce was the one who always kept us grounded. The one who..." Helen trailed off as she quickly sped back to the Base Operations and found her Alien Tablet as she zoomed back in 2 seconds. "This is what he was talking about," Helen says while briefly showing them her Brother's recording as she then turned to glare at Manny. "Don't you see, Manny? We've been catching all those other aliens."

"What other aliens?" Vanessa asked with a raised eyebrow as Carmine reached over to grab the Alien Tablet and zoomed over to hand it to her as Team Alien Force began going through their files of 'killed' Aliens as their eyes widened in shock and horror.

"Uh, some of these might be other Plumbers' kids, like us...like you." A worried Shadow says as the Plumber Kids shared stunned and guilty looks, realizing that they all have unfairly imprisoned innocent people in the Null Void as a determined Helen stepped forward.

"Okay. In that case, we have to go into that...uh, what did you call it?"

"Null Void," Knight says as Helen nodded.

"Null Void, round up everybody we captured, and free all the ones who shouldn't be there," Helen stated matter-of-factly as Manny crossed his arms and shakes his head.

"Not a chance."

"Manny, we fucked up...hard, we need to do this and, I don't know about you, but Helen and I are doing this whether you come with us or not," Carmine stated with a firm tone as Manny gave them a bewildered look.

"What? Why?"

"Because it's what Pierce would do," Helen says as Manny's eyes widened in shock, but nod.

"All right. For Pierce."

"Uh, guys? Big problem here. If we are all going into the Null Void, who will stay here and mand the Null Void Projector? And we still have to take out DNAliens." Alan says as Carmine pursed his lips.

"Hmmm, true, we need someone to stay behind to watch over both the Null Void Projector and the city, so...Alan, do you think that you can do it?" Carmine asked as Alan gave him a surprised look.

"W-Wait, seriously, me?"

"Yeah, you can do it, Alan. You know your way around the equipment and you are strong enough to take care of the city while we are gone." Helen says with a smile as Manny walked over to pat Alan's back.

"Alright, Little Man, as the Leader of our group, I order you to stay behind and watch over our base, the Null Void Projector, and the city. Think you can do that?" Manny asked with a smirk as Alan smirked back and nodded.

"You can count on me."

"And us as well," Sabrina says as the others nodded.

"Yeah, and don't worry, we will drop by every once in a while to check in on you, Alan," Gwen says as Vanessa nodded.

"And anytime you need our help, just call," Vanessa says with a wink as Alan blushed sheepishly and nodded as we fast forward in time again, and we see Manny, Helen, and Carmine standing near the activated Null Void Projector with Alan standing near the Plumbers' Helpers as Team Alien Force stood in front of them.

"Thanks, and, uh, sorry about, you know." An embarrassed Helen says as Kevin and Knight waved off her apology playfully.

"Apology accepted."

"Yeah, and thanks for allowing Vanessa and I to scan you guys," Ben says, super excited to finally have Heatblast, Four Arms, and XLR8 back, as he and Vanessa even got a new alien by scanning Carmine's Alien DNA.

"You're welcome," Carmine says with a grin.

"Be careful," Gwen warned.

"And good luck," Vanessa added in.

"Bye bye." Sabrina cheered as Ship beeped.

"Don't worry, guys, I will keep an eye out on everything. You have my word." Alan says with a nod as the Plumbers' Helpers nodded back before running over to go inside the Null Void Projector as they were teleported over to the Null Void, and Alan and Team Alien Force waved them goodbye as we pan up to the moon.


And done! I hope you guys enjoy the chapter, and I can't wait to write the next one! Also, when Kevin said, "I taught him that" after Swampfire escaped the Null Void in the canon episode, he was referring to the way he escaped the Null Void himself. And Kylmyys is still Big Chill's homeworld. Oh, and here is Carmine's Voice Actor:

Carmine Torreto's Voice Actor: Dee Bradley Baker, specifically the voice that he uses for Fasttrack from Ben 10 Ultimate Alien.

Anyway, as always, I will catch you all later.
