The scene begins on the planet that had technological buildings and pavements on it. All seemed quiet on this world and there were no signs of intelligent life anywhere. However, that was all changed when some distant scraping and weak groaning were heard within some kind of empty city with giant mechanised buildings. Clenching against the ground was the same deadly hand with yellow outlines, but it was revealed to be connected to a technological body that was skeletal-like and had a single yellow eye that was circular shaped. Whoever this being was, he appeared to be in a bad shape.

"It has…been years. And he still…has not found…a cure." The technological being said weakly, scraping against the floor. "That foul Galvan…has abandoned me. The only thing that can…make me whole…is his greatest creation."

This being needed to find a way off this world and reach whatever it was he needed to survive. Just as it looked like nothing could help him, he suddenly spotted some kind of shiny object in front of him and began crawling towards it. When the technological being reached it, the object was revealed to be some kind of jetpack with technology that was far too advanced for Earth.

"This is…just what I need." The technological being said, opening a patch on the jetpack and reaching into it. "Tell me… where the Omnitrix…is."

Some green electricity began to emit from the jetpack and it coursed through the being's entire body, causing him to get a glimpse of where his target was currently located on an advanced network.

"Earth. One of the most inferior planets in the five galaxies." The technological being said with a scoff. "And it seems that the Omnitrix has already bonded itself to a being on that world. If I cannot use that to restore me, I shall simply seek someone who has greater knowledge than my so-called creator."

With a new destination, the technological being absorbed the jetpack into himself and then a pair of mechanical wings suddenly morphed onto his back before he immediately took off from the planet in the speed of light.

In Royal Woods, Lincoln Loud was sitting in his bedroom and reading an Ace Savvy comic book in his underwear. Not surprisingly, he still had the Omnitrix connected to his wrist.

"Now that's how to deal out some justice, Ace!" Lincoln remarked with a smile. "You defeated the bad guy and you got to kiss the girl of your dreams."

As he finished reading his comic, Lincoln laid back on his bed and smiled calmly to himself.

"Man, I wish I knew who the girl of my dreams was. We'd probably have a good life if we're both heroes." Lincoln said, not knowing a certain half-alien girl had certain feelings for him.

Just then, Lincoln began hearing a knock on his front door and the white haired boy yelped in surprise before quickly jumping off his bed and nabbing all his cloths from the floor. He placed them on the proper areas and turned his attention back to the door.

"You're free to come in." Lincoln said as the door opened to reveal Leni on the other side.

"Hi, Linky. Where you in town beating up bad people with your Omnitrix, again?" Leni asked with her signature sweet smile.

"Actually, I've just been chilling in my room all day. I needed a break from that kind of stuff." Lincoln admitted. "So, what brings you here?"

"Oh, I totes just finished this new outfit I've been working on for a really long time and you're the one that's going to try it." Leni told him. "It'll, like, go well with your alien watch."

"Are you saying this new outfit is only meant for me?" Lincoln asked curiously.

"That's totes right. You need to come in my and room try it on." Leni said before grabbing his hand and dragging him to her and Lori's bedroom.

Once they were inside, Leni had her brother step on a wooden stool and she opened her closet.

"Close your eyes. I don't want you to see it until I've, like, put it on." Leni instructed.

"Fine." Lincoln said with a sigh before closing his eyes.

He could hear Leni pulling out something from her wardrobe and stepping towards his position on the stool before removing his shirt and trousers and leaving on his undies, socks and shoes. He was fortunate that none of his other sisters were around to see. Lincoln could then feel Leni putting some kind of new shirt over his head and onto his chest and tapped on his legs, gesturing him to lift them one at a time as she placed something over them.

"I'm all done, Lincoln. You can look now." Leni said sweetly.

Lincoln opened his eyes and looked down at what Lincoln had dressed him up in, gaining an amazed expression. While he still had his signature red-stripped trainers, he now wore a black t-shirt with orange highlights around it and a 10 symbol on the middle of it. Along with that, he even had a pair of dark-blue jean shorts that were looking pretty good on him.

"Wow, this is one nice shirt." Lincoln commented, smiling in an impressed way. "And these shorts are a nice touch. How'd you manage to make something like this, Leni?"

"That's a fashion designer secret." Leni replied. "I just thought that since you're now a young superhero with ten alien transformations, I should make you your very own hero costume. I even put the 10 symbol on the shirt to reference your ten aliens."

"Well, I really like it. Thanks, Leni." Lincoln said with a kind smile.

"You're totes welcome, Linky." Leni answered.

"I'm gonna go show this new look to the others. See you later." Lincoln said before he walked out of the bedroom and made a right turn.

Just as Lincoln was preparing to walk down the stars once he reached them, he heard someone's throat clearing up and he turned to the left side of the upstairs corridor to see Lisa staring at him emotionlessly.

"Oh, hey there, Lisa. Is something wrong?" Lincoln asked, raising an eyebrow in curiosity.

"Not technically, but there is something I wish to show you." Lisa answered. "Would you please follow me?"

Lincoln decided it was okay and he followed his little genius sister into her and Lily's bedroom, where he was surprised to see some kind of giant machine with a radar at the top.

"What the heck is that?" Lincoln questioned.

"Only a machine that I designed to help detect incoming alien signatures that enter our planet's atmosphere." Lisa explained. "I simply thought we could use an advantage such as this for future conflicts you will have we new antagonistic figures, street name villains."

"Man, that it pretty useful." Lincoln said with an impressed nod. "Thanks for building it, Lisa."

"My only intention was to assist you in your hero career, brother unit." Lisa replied.

Just then, the two of them began hearing Lisa's machine beeping loudly as it displayed a large view of Earth on it's front screen. Appearing on the top left was some kind of burning projectile heading straight for the planet's surface.

"What's that? A meteor?" Lincoln asked, trying to get a better look.

"I am unable to identify what that projectile is, but it seems to be heading towards…our home town." Lisa said, her eyes widening on the last part.

The very next second, Lincoln and Lisa heard a massive explosion in the distance as everything shook for a moment. They quickly looked out the window to see smoke coming from the center of town.

"And it appears to have already arrived." Lisa admitted.

"Then I need to get over there and see what it is!" Lincoln stated before he quickly ran out the bedroom.

"I wish for you to be successful, Lincoln!" Lisa called out.

When Lincoln got back into his room, he reached under his bed and pulled out the hoverboard he received from Tetrax before opening the room's window. Lincoln tossed out the hoverboard and it expanded to full size, hopping on it and flying towards where the space projectile had crashed in his town.

(Linebreak)

In the main town, hundreds of people were gathered around a ginormous crater that was covered by rubble and burning smoke. Just as things started to seem calm, a large black and yellow hand sprouted out of the rubble and clenched the surface with it's deadly skeletal hands before technological being from earlier rise from his crash site. Everyone screamed in fear and ran away from the large tech being as he looked around the town.

"This is Earth? The life forms here are even more primitive than I expected." The technological being scoffed.

He began to walk forward and search for any sign of the Omnitrix he seeks, scratching his fingers against some cars and making them explode in the process. The technological being even smashed up some buildings while letting out some furious yells. Many people who spotted him started running away in terror due to his sinister appearance before a bunch of police cars arrived at the scene, pulling in front of the technological being. A bunch of cops exited the cars and aimed their pistols at the technological being.

"You there! Freeze!" An officer ordered. "Whatever you are, you're not allowed to trash up Royal Woods!"

"I do not take orders from inferior creatures like you." The technological being replied before stretching his arm out and snatching the officer's pistol away.

He then began to morph his hand around the pistol and it became part of him, shifting into some kind of small alien laser that replaced the hand. The technological being fired the laser and it destroyed one of the police cars, making the officers retreat while firing their pistols at their foe. However, the technological being was unfazed by the bullets and fired his laser at everything he saw, creating tons of destruction.

"Why the Omnitrix chose to crash on a world filled with such weak creatures is beyond me." The technological being said to himself. "As soon as I find it, I'll be able to leave."

"I wouldn't count on that, you creep-face!" A voice shouted.

The technological being looked up and he saw Lincoln descend to the ground on his hoverboard, hopping off it and glaring determinedly at his new enemy.

"And who might you be?" The technological being questioned.

"I'm the local defender of Royal Woods and I'm gonna be kicking your black and yellow butt, boney!" Lincoln stated firmly.

However, the technological being took a closer look at Lincoln's wrist and gasped at noticing a certain super weapon on it.

"The Omnitrix!" He exclaimed. "You are the one who claimed it?! A human child?!"

"You're right. I found it in the forest and it latched itself onto my wrist." Lincoln replied while crossing his arms. "And now, I use it's alien transforming powers to keep my home and everyone I care about safe from destructive maniacs like you."

"I am something you've never seen before, child. I'm meant to be one of my world's greatest technological beings, and it shall happen today. My name is…Malware." The technological being, now identified as Malware, told him sinisterly.

"Okay, Malware is a pretty nice villain name." Lincoln muttered to himself. "But still, you're not destroying my home town!"

"Give me the Omnitrix and I'll spare the lives of every pitiful creature in this area." Malware demanded, aiming his laser at the white haired boy.

"Not at all! I'm sending you back where you came from!" Lincoln replied determinedly as he activated the Omnitrix. "Time for some Gravattack action!"

The white haired boy slammed on the core and he was enveloped in a green light as Malware shielded his single eye, looking bellow when the light faded and seeing Ball Weevil on the ground. The Curculideon looked at himself before groaning in frustration.

"Stupid watch." Ball Weevil said.

"A Curculideon? Hardly a challenge." Malware said in an unimpressed tone.

The technological alien villain shot a laser blast straight at Ball Weevil, who yelped shockingly and jumped away to avoid it. Ball Weevil then spat out a slime ball and jumped on it before rolling around the road, avoiding more of Malware's laser blasts in the process.

"Hold still, vermin!" Malware ordered frustratingly.

"That's a big fat no for you, buddy!" Ball Weevil retorted.

When the insectoid alien's ball had grown to a good enough size, he kicked it straight at Malware and it exploded once it made contact with him, sending him crashing into a lamppost as it fell down.

"Alright, time to give you a toss outta here!" Ball Weevil announced before shooting out a long string of slime from his mouth.

The string wrapped around Malware's right leg and Ball Weevil started to swing him around, picking up the pace as the seconds went by. Ball Weevil then let the string go and Malware was sent flying away into the sky, yelling loudly all the way.

"Have a nice flight!" Ball Weevil called out, chuckling to himself.

But then, the Curculideon took a closer look to see Malware beginning to descend down towards somewhere that was very familiar to him.

"Wait, is he going to crash into…" Ball Weevil began asking before his eyes widened in worridness. "Oh, crud!"

(Linebreak)

Back at the Loud House, Lola was currently sitting at her plastic toy table with Mr Sprinkles and Eunice so she can play her little tea party game. Also sitting at the table was Lana, who wore a plastic crown on her red cap with a very bored expression.

"Would you like some more tea, Princess Lana?" Lola asked in a polite tone, holding her toy tea mug forward.

"Why did I agree to do this with you again?" Lana questioned annoyingly.

"Because if you play tea party with me for one hour, I'll buy you that frog onesie you've been wanting for a year." Lola answered.

"You are so lucky I put Hops down for a nap." Lana said with a low growl. "If he wasn't sleeping, I'd tell him to lick the inside of your ear."

But suddenly, the back part of their room's roof collapsed down and the twins shielded their eyes from the impact's force. They opened their eyes and became speechless at seeing Malware laying in front of them with a painful scowl.

"That child is already becoming a nuisance." Malware said angrily, sitting right up in full recovery.

When he laid his eye on Lana and Lola, the twins only stared at him in complete silence before they let out screams of fear.

"Alien monster!" Lana yelled nervously, jumping out of her seat and running out the front door.

"Mom! Dad! There's an alien in our room!" Lola screamed as she followed her twin.

"These humans become more annoying the longer I stay on this world." Malware muttered, standing up. "Retrieving the Omnitrix from that boy will be much harder."

"Twin siblings, did you both scream about an extraterrestrial suddenly appearing in your living quarters?" A voice asked as Lisa then showed up at the front door.

When the little genius looked into Lisa's room, she became very shocked at seeing Malware stare down at her and she attempted to retreat, only for the technological being to grab her and hold her to his face.

"You speak as if you possess a higher knowledge than normal humans." Malware said, sounding quite interested.

"I-Indeed. I am a child prodigy with a mind superior to those who would be at my age." Lisa said as she became a bit intimidated. "Why would you be curious about that, may I ask?"

"Hmm, perhaps you can provide me an alternative solution to my problem." Malware admitted. "If I cannot use the Omnitrix to make me whole, you'll build something to help do it."

"And wh-what makes you think I would do that?" Lisa questioned.

"Oh, I can be quite percussive." Malware replied in deviousness, making the little girl sweat fearfully.

The rest of the Loud family arrived at the room, gasping shockingly when they saw Lisa in Malware's clutches.

"Lisa!" Rita and Lynn Sr exclaimed fearfully.

"Put her down, you freak!" Lori demanded.

"Or you're so gonna be sorry!" Lynn threatened, holding up her baseball bat.

"I do not take orders from humans." Malware proclaimed, gripping Lisa tightly.

"How about me!" Ball Weevil yelled as he suddenly appeared behind Malware and latched onto the back of his head, making the technological being thrash around trying to grab him. "Nobody threatens my little sister, you skeletal tech creep!"

"I no longer need your Omnitrix! Not when this child is the key to making me perfect!" Malware stated.

He then managed to swat Ball Weevil off and he was quickly caught by Luna. Malware made his jetpack reappear and he instantly flew away into the distance with Lisa still in his hand.

"No! Lisa!" Ball Weevil called out in despair.

"Get back here with her!" Luan shouted.

But Malware was already gone and this made the Louds become very worried for Lisa's safety, wondering what would happen to her.

(Linebreak)

After they got the twins' room cleaned and when the Omnitrix timed out, the Louds were now downstairs in the living room wearing very nervous expressions as Lincoln paced back and forth, very worried about Lisa.

"I can't believe that alien creep took Lisa." Lana said.

"This is an unpardonable sin." Lucy added with a low growl.

"As much as I want to tear that monster apart, we literally need to focus on figuring out where he took Lisa." Lori told her family.

"Do you have any ideas, bro?" Luna asked Lincoln, who stopped pacing.

"I'm…not sure. I just can't believe I let Malware kidnap Lisa when I wasn't there." Lincoln sighed depressingly, feeling like it's his fault Lisa was captured.

"Sweetie, don't blame yourself. None of us knew this would happen." Rita reassured.

"Poo poo, Wincoln." Lily said as she nuzzled against her brother's right leg.

"Thanks for that, guys." Lincoln replied, managing to put on a small smile.

Just then, the Louds heard someone knocking on their front door.

"Who's that?" Lynn asked.

"I called some friends to help us." Lincoln answered as he approached the door and opened it, revealing Clyde and Nora on the other side.

"We came as soon as you messaged us, Lincoln." Nora told him. "By the way, I like that new outfit of yours."

"Yeah, it is cool." Lincoln agreed.

"Sorry about what happened to Lisa." Clyde said sympathetically. "We'll help you take down this Malware creep and get her back."

"Thanks a lot, you two." Lincoln replied.

"So, how do you plan on finding Lisa and that freak?" Lola asked.

"Unfortunately, I don't have any aliens with tracking skills." Lincoln admitted, looking at the Omnitrix.

"This is a seriously big problem." Luan commented. "And that's no joke."

"You're not joking? That's a first." Lana replied.

"I should be able to figure out where Malware and Lisa went." Nora told everyone, making them turn towards her.

"How's that, girl?" Luna questioned.

"My mom taught me how to trace the Mana of other beings to where they've previously been or see the direction their heading to." Nora explained. "I can trace Lisa's Mana and see where Malware flew off to with her."

"You can? That's literally great!" Lori stated gratefully.

"Can you try doing it now, Nora?" Clyde asked.

"Definitely." Nora answered with a nod before her eyes glowed pink.

The Anodite girl turned her attention upstairs and she saw a large trail of pink energy that led into Lana and Lola's room and out the giant impact hole that Malware left, going off into the distance.

"I see it. Lincoln and I just need to follow the Mana trail and it'll lead us straight to Lisa and Malware." Nora said to the Louds, who approached her from behind.

"That's a relief." Lynn Sr said, sighing calmly. "I sure am glad you got to make her your friend, son."

"I just can't wait for you two to go higher in your relationship." Luan joked mischievously, earning a few giggles from her sisters.

"Drop it, girls! We are not having this conversation!" Lincoln whispered with a stern glare.

"Sigh. Have it your way, brother." Lucy replied.

"I'm still trying to find a good ship name for them." Leni said to herself, earning a scowl from her brother.

"Mind if I come along for the ride?" Clyde asked, much to Lincoln and Nora's surprise.

"Really, Clyde? You want to come?" Lincoln questioned, slightly concerned. "You don't have any powers to defend yourself."

"It's okay. I'm sure Lisa has some weapons I can use." Clyde assured before he walked into the genius sister's room.

"Does Lisa have weapons?" Lynn asked, earning a shrug from Leni.

Only a few seconds later, Clyde walked out of the room with some kind of hand-made laser rifle in his hand.

"I don't know how Lisa made this, but it's gonna be pretty useful." Clyde said with a confident smile.

"She is definitely getting an earful for making weapons behind our backs." Rita muttered to herself.

"Good find, Clyde. Now it's time for us to go." Nora proclaimed before she created a Mana board outside the house, hopping onto it with the boys.

"Don't worry, we'll make sure to get Lisa and take down Malware." Lincoln told his family.

"We know you will, Linky." Leni replied.

"Make sure you kick that mechanical creep's butt, bro." Luna said with an encouraging smile.

"Try not to get any broken bones, son." Lynn Sr instructed.

"We'll be waiting for you guys." Lana added.

"Bah Bah!" Lily called out while waving.

Lincoln gave his family a nod while smiling before Nora commanded her Mana board to fly away, following the trail that led straight to Lisa.

"So…who's gonna fix mine and Lana's bedroom?" Lola asked, showing that it was still a wreck.

"I'll literally call the repair crew." Lori said before taking out her phone.

(Linebreak)

Meanwhile in some kind of abandoned factory, Lisa was currently working with some highly advanced technology pieces that was salvaged from certain areas as Malware stood over her.

"How much longer will this take?" Malware asked impatiently.

"Inventing can never be rushed. It will take quite a few minutes for me to create this power source you're desperate for." Lisa said, feeling very worried on the inside.

"I suggest that you accelerate your efforts, unless you want to be reduced to a pile of ash." Malware replied threateningly, aiming his small laser hand at her.

"Very well." Lisa sighed as she turned away and continued working. "To be honest, I never thought that Galvanic Mechamorphs such as you could be this way."

"You know of my kind?" Malware asked.

"Indeed. I looked them up on the alien database I received a few days ago." Lisa answered. "It told me that Galvanic Mechamorphs are a race of technological beings that are capable to merging with any kind of structure to make it more mechanical and provide any sort of upgrade to it. However, most of them were shown to be black and green. Your appearance is more menacing with a side of yellow to it."

"Yes, I am not like the rest of my species. I was born as an incomplete Galvanic Mechamorph by the very creator of our entire race. Unlike the other Galvanic Mechamorphs, I had the ability to make technology part of my own body but my life code was also corrupted." Malware said, clenching his hands at those memories of his. "That fool said that he would work hard to develop a way that would make me whole, so that I would be just like the other Mechamorphs. But after years of waiting, I heard rumours that my so-called creator had vanished without a trace. He abandoned me to be left as a pathetic mistake and live in misery for the rest of my life. That is when I decided to take matters into my own hands. At first, I thought that the Omnitrix would be enough to make me whole, but the boy who possesses it has proven to make that impossible. I cannot remove the Omnitrix from his genetic structure without the correct tool."

"So, my great mind of technological development will be a good enough second chance for you to be a more complete Galvanic Mechamorph?" Lisa suggested, now understanding Malware's motives.

"Hmm, perhaps you humans are not so unintelligent after all." Malware scoffed.

"For your information, my brother unit will most likely discover our whereabouts and he will thwart your plan to become more complete." Lisa told him with a frown.

"Oh, I am expecting that boy to arrive soon." Malware said in a sinister tone, much to Lisa's concern.

(Linebreak)

At the same time, Lincoln, Nora and Clyde continued to fly on the Mana board as the Anodite girl kept seeing Lisa's trail of Mana in the air. The three of them soon found a large abandoned factory ahead of them and Nora had the board float to the floor, allowing them to hop off it.

"This is where the trail leads." Nora told the boys.

"Lisa's gotta be inside this factory, along with Malware." Lincoln said while frowning.

"There's no telling what that mechanical menace is doing with her." Clyde admitted, powering his laser rifle.

"Then I say we should stop wasting time and get in there." Nora replied.

"I'm down with that." Lincoln said in agreement.

The three of them began approaching the factory's main entrance, which was shown to be closed off by a tied-up chain around the handles.

"Looks like Malware doesn't want us inside." Lincoln commented as he activated his Omnitrix. "I'm sure Four Arms will be able to bust this door open."

"No, Lincoln. We need you to save the Omnitrix for when we battle Malware." Nora reminded, making Lincoln put the watch away.

"I've got this, you two." Clyde assured before aiming his laser rifle at the chains.

When the African-American boy pulled the trigger, a red laser blast shot from the rifle and it instantly blew apart the chain. Lincoln then easily opened the door and it was pretty dark inside, causing Nora to light the way with a Mana sphere in her hand.

"You two ready to take on a scary tech alien with a crazy attitude?" Lincoln asked.

"I'm always with, Linc." Clyde answered with a nod.

"So am I." Nora added determinedly.

The three of them began advancing into the factory so they could find Lisa and confront Malware. Speaking of, Lisa was still working on the machine that Malware forced her into building, hooking up a pair of cables to a nearby electric generator.

"I assume it's nearly finished?" Malware guesses, starting to get tired of how long this was taking.

"Correct. I only need to connect these power cables to the generator you stole from some area I do not know about, and it should power up the energy source I managed to construct." Lisa said. "I should warn you, though, it will most likely have a random outcome that could either have you being disintegrated or the entire factory become caught in an explosion with both of us still inside."

"Or you are only attempting to convince me of not proceeding with my plan to become just like the rest of my kind." Malware retorted, not believing her. "Now, activate the source."

Lisa didn't want to help an evil technological alien with his plan, but she knew that her alternative would be death and her family would become devastated over that. Sighing in defeat, Lisa connected the cables to the generator and it began charging up to power the large structure that the young genius made, which was shaped like a cube with mechanical highlights on it and a power of energy rods standing at both sides. The energy source began to glow in a red colour as Malware approached it.

"Finally, I'll now longer be a subspecies in this universe." Malware said triumphantly.

"Not if we can help it!" A voice called out.

Lisa and Malware turned around to see Lincoln, Nora and Clyde standing from the entrance to the room they were currently standing in.

"Step away from the smart little girl and that weird metal thing!" Clyde ordered, aiming his energy rifle at Malware.

"Did you acquire that from my room?" Lisa questioned with her arms crossed.

"Not the time, Lisa! Just come over here!" Nora ordered, emitting Mana energy from her hands.

As Lisa quickly made her way to the others, Malware paid no attention and turned back to the energy source as it began emitting powerful red energy that seemed very powerful.

"At last, I will be cured! And nothing will stop me!" Malware announced, grabbing both of the energy rods with his long arms.

The red energy began coursing through Malware and his yellow outlines changed to that exact colour, making him yell out loudly as the children looked on in shock.

"YES! I can feel my life code being restored! It's working!" Malware shouted.

"Not for long!" Clyde stated.

He aimed his energy rifle at the energy source and fired it, while Nora shot a barrage of Mana projectiles as well. All of the shots managed to hit the energy source and this caused it to shined brightly before a huge energy pulse enveloped it and Malware. After shielding their eyes from the pulse, Lincoln, Lisa, Nora and Clyde looked ahead and saw Malware had vanished as a crater was left in his place.

"Well…that just happened." Lincoln said after a few seconds of silence.

"What exactly happened?" Nora asked.

"It would seem that the energy source ended up overloading and this caused Malware to be vaporised once he made contact with it." Lisa said, smiling proudly for herself. "A simple side effect I included on purpose just to make sure he would not succeed."

"Cool thinking, Lisa." Clyde complemented kindly, powering down his energy rifle.

"Yeah, and I'm really glad that creep didn't hurt you." Lincoln admitted before pulling his little sister into a hug.

"I am fortunate myself. He would most certainly have disposed of me once I had completed the task he forced me into." Lisa replied with a nervous smile.

The two siblings broke their hug and prepared to leave with Nora and Clyde, only for them to hear the noise of moving rubble and electricity from a certain place. The four children nervously looked ahead to the crater and emerging from it was Malware, who now had an entirely new appearance. His yellow highlights were now red, his skeletal body had been replaced by a more muscular-shaped one, his head was slightly shaped like a cylinder, and there was a glowing yellow symbol resembling a four-pointed star on his neck that almost seemed like a mouth. Red electrical energy began radiating from Malware's body as Clyde aimed his energy rifle and Nora got her Mana powers ready.

"Upgrade…complete!" Malware said, shooting out his new energy across the room. "Finally, I am greater than ever!"

"Looks like your simple side effect had an unforeseen consequence." Nora told Lisa in worridness.

"Listen, Malware, there is no need for anymore conflicts! The power source was able to fix your life code!" Lisa stated, hoping to avoid a battle. "You're just like all the other Galvanic Mechamorphs, now!"

However, Malware laughed sinisterly as the red energy from his body slightly died down.

"What I am now is so much more than they have ever been. I am superior!" Malware announced.

"Great, this is where the evil villain starts giving an evil speech about themselves." Lincoln said in an all-knowing tone.

"Evil? No…visionary! I feel power building inside me. I see a world that only I can create." Malware said deviously. "It was my creator who thought me flawed. He gave me the name Malware."

Suddenly, the evil Galvanic Mechamorph stretched his hand out and grabbed Clyde's energy rifle, pulling it back to him.

"But I am not the flawed one. It is all the rest that are inferior." Malware continued, slowly absorbing the rifle and turning it into a much more powerful laser blaster for his hand. "They bend and stretch, mimic and manipulate only what others have created. I do not upgrade other's creations. They upgrade me. And I will upgrade myself with the most powerful weapon in the universe."

Lincoln took one look at his Omnitrix, realising that Malware intended to absorb it to make himself unstoppable.

"That is definitely not happening on my watch!" Lincoln stated firmly before he turned on the Omnitrix and slammed on the core, becoming XLR8.

Malware fired his laser cannon and XLR8 quickly grabbed his sister and friends, moving them out of the way.

"You cannot defeat me now, boy. Accept the inevitable." Malware said.

"Not at all!" XLR8 replied, speeding towards Malware and scoring a bunch of swift punches on him.

The evil Galvanic Mechamorph relentlessly fired his laser at XLR8 and the Kineceleran zoomed across the entire room, making some parts collapse down from all the impacts.

"Lincoln, we should get out of here!" Nora called out. "This whole place could collapse!"

"Not until I've taken care of this techno-psycho!" XLR8 replied while speeding across the left, only for Malware to then blast him into the wall.

"Lincoln!" Clyde exclaimed.

XLR8 tried to stand up, but Malware grabbed him by the hands and pinned him to the wall before a third arm appeared out from the evil Galvanic Mechamorph's chest. The third arm grabbed XLR8 Omnitrix symbol and tried pulling it off, making the alien boy grunt a bit.

"Why do you struggle? In a moment, I will access all the codes and the device will be mine." Malware told him.

"I have a friend who begs to differ!" XLR8 retorted before Nora grabbed Malware with a Mana rope and tossed him back into a large pipe.

"You're welcome, Lincoln!" Nora stated.

"Thanks. I just wish there was a way I could switch to another alien and match Malware's power." XLR8 said as he tapped on his Omnitrix symbol.

But suddenly, the symbol shined brightly and Nora, Clyde and Lisa shielded their eyes for a moment before they saw Diamondhead standing in the Kineceleran's place.

"Uh, Lincoln? How did you do that?" Clyde asked with a surprised expression.

"No idea. I just pressed on the Omnitrix symbol and then I went from XLR8 to Diamondhead." Diamondhead replied, looking over himself.

"It would seem that the Omnitrix can instantly switch your transformations simply by making palm contact with it." Lisa theorised.

"Really? I'll make sure to remember that for another day." Diamondhead remarked.

Just then, the group noticed Malware beginning to recover from what Nora did to him.

"Hold that thought." Diamondhead said, thrusting his fist onto the floor.

Suddenly, Malware was smashed into the air by a large crystal and it sent him through the ceiling.

"I'm guessing that sent him straight outside?" Nora asked.

"That's a definite yes. I'll meet all of you in the outdoors." Diamondhead replied, making a crystal pillar appear beneath him and launching him through the hole Malware went through.

"Let's get after him!" Clyde stated.

"Agreed." Lisa said before they quickly rushed through the entrance.

Outside the factory, Malware crashed miles away from it and he groaned in anger before standing back up, seeing he was now in a grassland with a few amount of trees. Diamondhead suddenly craned in front of Malware, glaring straight at the evil Galvanic Mechamorph.

"I thought we should take this battle outside." Diamondhead said.

"You are truly becoming a nuisance to me! I'm going to enjoy tearing the Omnitrix from your body." Malware scowled in a mad tone.

"I'd like to see you try." Diamondhead replied, not scared at all.

The Petrosapien formed his hands into crystal blades and he swiped at Malware with them, causing his villainous foe to deflect the blades with his own arms. The evil Galvanic Mechamorph grabbed Diamondhead's left blade and shattered it in his grip before punching the Petrosapien away. Malware dug both his hands into the ground and caused giant chunks of rock that were the same colour as him to sprout out, making their way towards Diamondhead and sending him flying once they made contact.

"DANG IIIIIIIIIIIITT!" Diamondhead shouted, landing in another part of the grassland and leaving a giant crater in his place.

As Diamondhead started to get back up, he suddenly got blasted down by a red laser and Malware began to approach him menacingly. The evil Galvanic Mechamorph pinned Diamondhead down with his foot, leaving the Petrosapien at his mercy.

"I've had enough of this. It's time I claimed my prize." Malware said, grabbing Diamondhead's Omnitrix symbol. "Say goodbye, little human."

But then, Diamondhead managed to reel his feet back and then he kicked Malware away, allowing him to stand back up.

"Don't you ever get tired of being wrong?" Diamondhead asked rhetorically.

Just then, Nora, Clyde and Lisa appeared at the scene and rushed to their friend/brother's side.

"Don't worry, Linc, I'll help you take down this creep." Nora told her friend.

"And I'll take care of Lisa." Clyde said while putting his hand on the little genius' shoulder, making her roll her eyes.

"Thanks, you two. I doubt I'm gonna last much longer in my transformation." Diamondhead admitted, worried he might time out in a few seconds.

"I'll keep Malware distracted if you can deliver the finishing blow." Nora said with a smile.

Diamondhead nodded in response before they both headed straight towards Malware. The evil Galvanic Mechamorph recovered and aimed his laser weapon at Diamondhead, only for Nora to fire two Mana lasers from her hands and strike him. Malware then fired his laser at Nora, who blocked it with a Mana shield and tossed a pink rope at him, wrapping it around his arm and tossing him into two trees at once.

"Your powers are similar to those of an Anodite. But, you have the appearance as every other Human on this world." Malware said, confused and intrigued by Nora's abilities.

"I'm a bit of both, Mal-jerk!" Nora stated, shooting four Mana disks at Malware.

The evil Galvanic Mechamorph easily blasted the four disks with his laser and prepared to fire at the Anodite girl, only for him to yell out painfully as Diamondhead touched him from behind and made crystals form around his entire body.

"What's the matter, Malware? Can't break through crystals?" Diamondhead asked, smirking slyly before encasing both of Malware's arms in crystals.

"No! Stop! You cannot do this to me!" Malware shouted.

"He already has." Nora replied, placing her hands on her hips.

"Looks like you've beaten another villain, buddy." Clyde said proudly.

"Tremendous work, elder brother." Lisa remarked.

"Thanks, you three. At this point, I doubt anything could rival the Omnitrix's power." Diamondhead commented with a smile, earning a furious scowl from Malware.

"I can take us home now. Our families are probably worried about us." Nora told her friends.

"True. I should probably help with fixing Lana and Lola's room, too." Diamondhead said, remembering how it got wrecked by his new enemy.

Just as Diamondhead, Nora, Clyde and Lisa started to walk away, Malware gave them a look of pure anger and he formed some kind of red hole on his chest. Some powerful heat began emitting from the hole and it made the crystals crack apart before they exploded open, freeing Malware from his imprisoned state as the group shielded their eyes from the explosion's force. Before he knew it, Diamondhead was grabbed by Malware's extendable arms and pulled straight into his face.

"Nothing can rival the power of the Omnitrix? Your words are true." Malware said maliciously before grabbing the Omnitrix symbol on Diamondhead's chest.

A bunch of green energy emitted underneath Malware's palm as Diamondhead groaned painfully, dropping to his knees before Malware removed his hand and let him collapse. The Omnitrix then timed out and Diamondhead transformed back into Lincoln, while Malware looked at his palm to seek the exact symbol of the Omnitrix on it.

"Lincoln!" Nora, Clyde and Lisa exclaimed fearfully.

The three of them rushed towards Lincoln as Malware walked away from them.

"I will waste my time on this planet no longer." Malware proclaimed firmly. "Tell young Lincoln that we will meet again, one day. And next time, I will make sure he never breathes again."

The evil Galvanic Mechamorph made his jetpack appear and he flew straight into the Earth's atmosphere, disappearing within mere seconds. Nora, Clyde and Lisa turned their attention back to Lincoln, who groaned lightly and reopened his eyes.

"Wh…what just happened?" Lincoln asked before he quickly remembered everything. "Oh, yeah. Malware took me by surprise."

"He's long gone now, Lincoln." Clyde said. "He told us that he'll be back for another battle."

"Yeah, there's no way we've seen the last of that creep." Lincoln admitted, standing up with the others.

"I am surprised he left the Omnitrix with you. It is quite a mystery what he did and why he suddenly departed from our world." Lisa said with a curious frown.

"There's no telling what he got. But, we'll just need to wait in the future." Nora said.

"Can we just go home, now?" Clyde asked, starting to get a little tired.

"Sure, Clyde." Lincoln answered before he, his little sister and his two friends began walking off to make it back to Royal Woods.

Meanwhile, Malware managed to return to his home planet after a few hours of flying through space and he entered some kind of facility that was pretty dark. A few lights switched on and they revealed some lab tables with a few advanced equipment on them.

"I may not have been able to obtain the Omnitrix itself, but I have acquired something that can help design something much similar. It's such a shame that Azmuth is not on his planet so I can dispose of him with my new power." Malware said, looking at the red Omnitrix symbol on his palm with a very sinister expression. "But for now, let's see what I can create with this. And who will be able to help test it for me."
