Season 1 Episode 1: Assemble

Earth 5: Amazon Jungle

After the Novatrons invaded, G3 was given the assignment to gather any and all alien technology that was still around after the invaders were defeated and the threat had subsided. Solomon dispatched a number of operatives to the locations where the Novatrons stationed their battle fortresses to perform cleanup duties, and just now they were carrying that out. The squad in the Amazon Jungle was loading a transport vehicle with a container full of alien weapons so that they could be disassembled along with the rest of the Novatron arsenal at G3 HQ. The squad leader says, "Alright, people. This should be the last shipment." as he directs the full removal of all Novatron presence in the Amazon. He used a communicator to speak. No one responded when he said, "Bravo unit, report in." "Bravo, unit. Do you copy?"

One soldier speculated, "Could they be out of contact?"

The squad leader protests, "They know better than to head out past our scanners." He gives the command to two soldiers, "You two, find the unit and report anything out of the ordinary." The soldiers obey and head out to look for their fellow operatives.

To look for any life signals, one checks the screen on his helmet. There were five blips, indicating a modest presence nearby and not far away. It's simply normal procedure to call in their current location, unless of course they run into danger, but there aren't any other lifeforms for kilometers. "Hmm. Scans show that the Bravo unit is nearby, but why aren't they checking in?"

The second agent kept moving until he unintentionally kicked something after hearing it. When he looks down, he realizes that it was the same helmet that every G3 field agent wore. He pointed to the G3 equipment that had inexplicably been abandoned, including the falling lasers, saying, "Hold it. Check it out." Does the scanner detect any potential enemies?

He did so, but when the screen became static, he was forced to slam it with his hands out of frustration. Then a device in the shape of an orb was thrown to them, "Blasted thing. These are supposed to be up to date." What the heck is tha - AHH?

The electromagnetic discharge that the orb produced stunned both warriors, knocking them both out. After they were destroyed, mysterious strangers watched them and one of them took a G3 communication device.

"Sergeant, do you copy? Sergeant, did you detect Bravo Unit? Sergeant, kindly respond."

Something is applied to their throat by the figure. We'll return to you and inform Solomon of the situation. "Sorry, captain, but we couldn't find any sign of the unit, only scattered remains of their gear."

The commander replied, "Acknowledged."

As soon as he hangs up the phone, the figure emerges from the shadows and is shown to be an armored soldier with a helmet mask concealing his face. He remarked, his voice becoming warped till it sounded synthesized, "It's done."

He turned to other soldiers wearing identical attire and said, "They won't suspect a thing. Now is our time to strike." He gave one of the soldiers, who had mounted a highly sophisticated shoulder cannon and was waiting for the signal, the instruction, "Ready the launcher and fire on my mark." The weapon yelled "Fire!" and fired a projectile at the G3 team. It produces an explosion, which allows them the opportunity to accomplish their goal. Move, and strike while they're caught off guard.

A gunfight erupts as the unidentified soldiers advance on the G3 agents who were dispersed by the explosion. Both forces exchange gunfire, but these enigmatic warriors were more well-organized than G3 had anticipated. Their technology was equally cutting-edge as their own, and they knew how to use it. The squad captain yells to his teammates, "Get a message to Solomon!" "We need more support,"

The person in charge of these unidentified soldiers shot the squad leader, saying, "Sorry." He addresses his subordinates, "It never ceases to amaze me how much alien tech can be found on this primitive planet, and the majority of the population are none the wiser. But we're on a time schedule, and Solomon's involvement would only complicate things for us. They takeover all the Novatron technological advances in addition to their transport ship, taking it all to use themselves for whatever purpose they had with them. "Dispose of all the bodies while making sure that we haul every last piece of weapons back to base, and eliminate all evidence of us being here. Even when Solomon does figure out that it was us, by then, it'll already be too late."

Earth 5: Sherman, Illinois

Solomon cherished the idea that he was a patient man. However, he was beginning to grow impatient as he looked at his watch for the nth time and realized that it had been almost an hour and no one had yet arrived, leaving him alone with only Lance, Ilana, and Octus. The three halves of Titan and their ally awaited them with patience, but it was beginning to wear thin. "At least you three arrived on time, I suppose. Don't know how much longer we'll have to wait, though," he stated to the Titan trio, they were the first to arrive, which to be fair was expected because this crucial conference was taking place expressly in their Earth.

Lance states with a sneer and his arms folded, "They're late." We'll have to presume they won't arrive if we wait much longer.

Ilana taps on him. "Come on, Lance. We've just begun to decide to collaborate. They're probably a touch behind schedule."

Octus, disguised as Newton, concurs with her opinion. "The fact that they come from parallel Earths means that any delay in their arrival on our planet should be expected and not taken negatively, Lance."

Lance sarcastically remarks, "Yet, if they're not reliable enough to be on time, then I doubt their reliability on the field." He scoffed, expressing his skepticism, "I still can't believe we're actually entertaining this whole team idea." We just attempted to save the world once, and now, suddenly, we're all "best friends," exactly like those high school dramas you constantly watch."

Ilana chastised and didn't take well to the barb at her favorite show, "That's not fair and you know it." You shouldn't be too hard on them because they all showed their mettle when we all defeated the Novatrons together, and just so you know, such shows are entertaining to watch.

Soon, a portal appeared, and out of it sprang a vehicle with a green X-shaped design on the hubcap that covered the sides and looked like a combination of a black Mazda RX-8 and an Acura DN-X. Its body was substantially altered to give it the best chance of appearing svelte and covert.

From the car, a young boy wearing a green jacket with black and white stripes on the left and right sides, a number 10 on the right, and a number 10 on the back. He was also wearing a black and white shirt with green and white stripes. He is wearing a black belt with green and brown horizontally patterned jeans. He was sporting a pair of converse in green, black, and white. On his left wrist, He wears a watch that is not typical or human-like. Additionally, the left half of his short, unkempt fringe has green stripes, and the rest of it is brown and has a scar on the left side of his face. Another young boy who was wearing a red vest with orange and white stripes and a gear symbol on the back. He was wearing a sweater with blue on top and white on the bottom, as well as black sleeves and two orange rectangles on the left pectoral. He is donning a black glove. He also had on a pair of jeans with black and blue geometric stripes. He wore a pair of black Converse shoes. His hair is spiked, and he wears orange goggles and an orange beanie. Then a boy who's wearing a black shirt over an orange sweater with a large orange s symbol on the front and back. He had a black belt and light brown cargo pants. His sneakers were orange and white. He also has long hair that is white in the front and black in the rear. It was none other than the universe hero Ben Tennyson, along with Rex Salazar, Zak Saturday, Ladybug, and Cat Noir that elevated the idea of a secret identity by keeping their identities a secret from one another. They all exited the vehicle. Ben waved and said, "Hey there, guys." He dispatched his car back to Earth 1 and smiled.

Ilana exclaims, "Ben! Everyone!" and extends a warm greeting to everyone. "I'm so glad you could all make it!"

Zak apologized on everyone's behalf, saying, "Ilana, sorry we didn't get here sooner." Since some of us share the same earth, I must mention to my parents about visiting another world and other such things."

Rex continued, "As well as I had to take care of a few things with Providence."

Lance firmly admonished him, "Then next time, don't keep your teammates waiting."

Rex averts his gaze. "I guess you failed the how to be a less jerk class, Lance, but it's great to see you too."

Adrien continued, "That, plus both of us had to deal with Mr. Pigeon in Paris again."

Octus commented after noticing that someone was missing from the group. "Where are Max and Steel?"

Ben remarked, "Oh, Max says that we go here on this earth already because he has unfinished business doing in N-Tek."

Then another portal appeared from it, and a large red and yellow dragon flew out holding Randy Cunningham, a teenager with purple hair. A flying, customized automobile in purple was present next to them. Upon landing, Danny Phantom changed into Danny Fenton, a typical youngster with dark hair and blue eyes as opposed to white hair and green eyes. His attire also changed from the jumpsuit to the typical everyday apparel worn by most teenagers. The dragon changed into Jake Long, a skateboarder wearing a red jacket and a protector of all magical beings.

A young woman with long red hair, her blonde lover, and his pet naked mole rat perched comfortably on his shoulder emerged from the automobile. It was none other than Rufus the naked mole rat, Kim Possible, and Ron Stoppable. Then Kim autodrove her car back to their earth.

Ben greeted the other teen heroes by shaking their hands and saying, "Danny, Randy, Jake, Kim, Ron. It's great to see you guys again."

Marinette approached Danny. "Hey, Danny. How are you doing?"

"Same old. Had to take care of some ghost stuff." Danny replies with an embarrassed smile. "So, who's left?"

A third portal then appears, revealing a blue and white armored robotic girl carrying Manny Rivera wearing regular clothes as opposed to his suit, which materializes by rotating his distinctive belt buckle.

Manny Rivera in his civilian attire appeared shortly after another gateway appeared. Hey everyone, Manny said as he approached Rex and extended his hand. "Hey, Rex."

He was rattled by Rex. "Hello, Manny little amigo."

Then, in the following one, a rift in space-time was exposed and transformed into a dimensional opening, through which Marco Diaz and Star Butterfly, a princess who wields magic, emerged. In contrast to the previous occasion, Star, who was dressed in a bear-themed skirt, green jeggings, and a sleeveless teal dress, grinned broadly at the team. She says, "Hi, guys!" and gives Ilana a big embrace. She said, "Hey there, princess sister!" and began to hug everyone else, leaving Lance in a tense position. "I'm quite happy to be here."

Randy smiles a little over how stressed he felt from her very tight hug, "We can tell, Star."

Lance moans, "Is personal space a lost concept in your kingdom?"

Star let go after Marco said, "Star, remember our talk about boundaries." Rex then gave him a hard slap on the back, and he almost lost his balance.

Rex grinned as Manny approached and said, "Marco, my amigo! Good to see ya!"

Rex said, "Hope you're pumped like we are."

Marco calmed himself down and cleared his throat. He chuckled, a little uneasy but trying not to show it. "Uh, yeah, sure. I'm definitely super excited. Heh." Since we would have taken much longer to arrive, I'm glad I finally acquired my dimensional scissors to distinguish between different Earths.

Then a fourth portal formed, revealing two figures—Steven Universe and Juniper Lee, of course. After that, the portal shut behind them. "Hello everybody," Steven said.

Danny remarked, "Steven, June, glad you two can make it."

Then a fifth gateway materialized, revealing Avatar Aang, the master of the four elements. "Sorry, this dimension-hopping is still new to me," said Aang.

Randy remarked, "Aang buddy, you made it."

The curly-haired teenager Penn Zero, his bespectacled girlfriend Sashi Kobayashi, and their friend Boone Wiseman appeared in a blue zap to attend this rare event. "Sorry if we're late, everybody. It took some time for Boone to decide on exactly the right flip flops he wanted to put on for the occasion." Penn gestures to his closest companion.

Sashi frowned, disgusted as usual by the ditzy conduct of the so-called wise guy, "Despite the fact that each pair is precisely the same."

Boone responds, "You'll see flip flops are my kind of thing."

Following them through a portal were Jack and Ashi, a married couple. The seasoned samurai bowed respectfully and greeted them, "Greetings, my friends."

Ashi says, "It's great to see you all again."

Rex laughs. He mocked in a humorous way, "Well, if it isn't a newlywed couple, here I thought that you two were too busy with your honeymoon or something."

Ashi slyly smiles at her husband, who flushes a little. "We already decided on that business, Rex."

Solomon recorded each entry. "Okay. That simply leaves-".

Max Steel, who was in flying mode, descended from another portal. The brown-haired and blue-eyed superhero changed into casual clothing, including a blue jacket bearing an image of Steel. Ultralink gilded close to his angry superhero companion. The sentient robot informed his brown-haired best friend, "Aw, man. You see, Max? I had predicted we were going to be the last two to make it."

Max fought back, "Come on, Steel. We need to make sure Extroyer is prepared for anything too bad."

Danny tells them, "And besides, we hadn't been going to begin with either you, or Max."

Ben points to himself, Rex, and Zak and says, "You could've called us." "Bellwood and Copper Canyon are not that far apart, after all."

Solomon spits out his words to get everyone's full attention. He directs them all to the automobiles behind him, saying, "Well then, now that you're all here and accounted for, we can now get down to business." "We can start our small excursion, and I can guarantee you that you will all be pretty pleased, if you all would kindly enter the mountain runners. Most of them were left wondering what the leader of G3 meant by what he stated in his customarily cryptic and dry tone. They all got inside the cars even though it was a little scary since they were still intrigued. As they traveled, they couldn't help but observe the city's development, which was undoubtedly part of the city's reconstruction after the recent, intense invasion.

---

All of them were driven outside the city limits. Solomon had something special in store for them, but whatever it was, it had to be hidden from the rest of Sherman, which might work to their advantage. However, the voyage was somewhat lengthy, and the members, who weren't exactly famed for their patience, soon started to protest. Star exclaimed as she questioned, "Ugh! Are we there yet?" She was in a car with Marco, Marinette, Adrien, Max, Steven, Jake, Aang, and Zak.

Aang agrees by nodding. Seriously, we are spending daylight in these automobiles, how far is this secret surprise, anyway?

Jake says, "Hey, if you feel that these are travels that are too long, Aang? Try a NYC taxi."

Marinette said, "If it helps, it wouldn't be worse than riding in the same vehicle with Rex and Lance."

True to her word, those two were traveling with Boone, Sashi, Penn, Manny, June, and Jenny in the same transport. The corporal completely ignored the presence of his so-called teammates as he kept his eyes closed and waited till this entire situation was done. He turned to look at the passenger behind him with an angry scowl, but then he felt his seat bump. "Can you refrain from doing that for five full minutes?"

Rex quietly responded, relaxing, his arms on the back of his head, "I don't know what you're talking about."

Lance deadpanned, "Right, so I guess it wasn't you who was kicking my seat since the moment we took off."

Rex says to the teen with red hair, "Hey, man. All I've been doing was just relaxing. Right, Penn?"

The Zero boy nods at both his girlfriend and best friend, "Please don't bring me into all that, I already cope with these two.

Boone was munching on a bologna sandwich with his lips wide when Sashi took a whiff. Boone questioned, "Really, Boone? Couldn't wait until the ride was over, huh? Eating inside a government vehicle."

Boone continues to eat like a slob, telling her, "These happen to be one of my favorite ways to pass the time, Sashi. Maybe if you'd been a bit nicer, I'd really share this delicious meal with you."

All Lance could do was groan and wonder why he wasn't riding with Ilana and Octus instead of having to put up with the antics of the folks he was going to battle alongside from this point on.

They were present along with Ben, Danny, Jack, Ashi, Randy, Kim, and Ron, to mention a few. Ilana could not contain her enthusiasm as she murmured, "I wonder what Solomon has in store for us."

Ron couldn't help but exclaim, "That guy really knows how to keep secrets, doesn't he?" but quickly covers his mouth. He flirts his eyes nervously, hoping the mysterious man didn't hear him say, "Wait a minute. These cars aren't bugged, are they?"

Octus recognized the worry and said, "It's okay, Ron." Solomon may be secretive, but that is to be expected given that he is the leader of G3. Nevertheless, I must admit that I'm curious about what Solomon has been working on since the invasion.

Jack gave a grim face and said, "The Desire to discover the truth needs one to be patience. If one fail to discover yourself to be so, then that truth is going to be far from your reach."

Randy mutters, gazing at his satchel, which has the 800-year-old book of ninja knowledge concealed between its pages: "Huh, seems like anything the Nomicon would tell me."

Ron just gives him a blank look. He asked, "Did you discover that from a fortune cookie?" Rufus' face fell.

Danny looks across to Kim. He says, "He's a keeper."

Each of the team's vehicles started to abruptly shit all at once. The automobiles' wheels entered secret spaces, but instead of collapsing and falling to the ground, they hovered and sailed above a body of water. Randy was the one who said, "Okay, what the juice is going on?!"

"Look. Up ahead!" Ashi exclaims as she gestures towards an island. The cars flew till they came to a stop at their destination. The squad is able to depart when the cars come to a stop and their doors automatically open.

They were amazed by what they saw.

A massive edifice that nearly touched the sky was in front of them. It was a well-constructed structure with several stories made of invincible metal alloys; there was even a roadway next to the entrance so they could leave when necessary. It was followed by a space that resembled a public pool, and beyond that was a freight building designed to hold any flying aircraft. The letters UL, which stood for "they and only them," were written on top of the stepped out and stood in front of the tower with a bright smile, "Ultra Legion." Welcome to your new headquarters, The Ultra Tower," he says to them all, who all look at their base in awe, completely taken aback by this more than worth the wait.

Manny exhales, hoping Frida was present to witness this, "Cool."

Danny grins, "Oh, yeah. I can work with this."

Max agrees and gives Danny a fist bump. "Ditto."

Adrien speaks softly to his companion. So, best day ever, what do you think?

With her gaze fixed on the tower, Marinette nodded. "Totally."

Randy applauds, "So honking Bruce!"

Jack says with a nod of appreciation, "Impressive."

Looking up, Ashi smiles, "Breathtaking."

Kim feels Ron's hand on her shoulder. He almost broke down in tears as he said, "KP. We're home."

Kim laughs, but she finds it difficult to conceal her own astonishment as she replies, "Keep it together, baby."

Jenny asks her fellow inorganic colleagues, "Steel. Octus. Are you seeing the specs on it?"

The Galalunia robot in disguise buzzes with curiosity. "Indeed, Jenny. The structural designs seem adequate enough and equipped with cutting-edge technology. There is no doubt that this is a joint venture."

Steel clicks the camera, "Definitely saving this to my central cortex."

Star snatches Marco by the shoulders of his hoodie and shakes him violently. She exclaims, "Marco! This is our new home!"

"You're...almost...making...me...barf...!"

Ilana turned to face her ally. She was puzzled that all was going on in her neighborhood and she hadn't noticed. "Solomon. Where did you find the time to build all this?" she said.

Ben was curious as well. "Seriously, tell me how you built that tower."

The G3 leader then began to tell his story. "Lance, Ilana, Octus, you three remember when I asked to study your dimensional transport device. They nod. "After the Novatron invasion, I saw that all of you were intent on sticking together and fighting the good fight. So, I figured you needed someplace to better coordinate your actions. A meeting ground for you to operate away from your home dimensions. I knew this tiny endeavor would demand more than G3 resources, and it was for the goal of constructing my own, so that I could travel to each of your Earths. When Solomon mentioned his grandfather and longtime mentor, Ben's eyes perked up. "From Earth 1 Max Tennyson from the Plumbers, White Knight from Providence, Doc and Drew Saturday from the secret scientist, Forge Ferrus from N-tek, then from Earth 2 Dr. Betty Director of Global Justice," Solomon said. In shock, Max and Steel turn to face one another. Ron and Rufus' eyes fell as Kim held her chin in place with her hand, and Zak made a mental point to speak to them later.

Rex raises his hand and says, "Hold on." He questioned skeptically, "You're saying Knight helped cook this up?" It "doesn't sound like something he'd ever do."

Solomon smirked a little, "Tell him yourself if you get the chance." "While I had been saying. Together with each other, we developed this base of operations for you and you alone. Consider it as a reward for your service. It's constructed with the technology from each organization as some of you came to realize. It made it so that it would be the perfect HQ to fit all your needs."

Jake was happy, "Getting our own tower for preventing an alien invasion." "Man, I can get used to this."

Solomon leads them to the main entrance and turns to Ben, "If you follow me, we'll start the tour." Ben, move a little close.

Ben did this out of curiosity; a blue light then scanned his entire body and a female computer voice called.

"RECOGNIZED: BEN TENNYSON."

The doors glide open suddenly without Solomon, stunning everyone. "We programmed the tower to only be accessible to those with proper clearance, which of course, means you as well. Any intruder will be met with a competent security system." Solomon then turns to Ben and adds, "Also I forgot to mention that Azmuth the creator of your Omnitrix as well assist us to build this tower and your Omnitrix is linked to the tower which means you have access to any data of the tower stored."

"Wow touche," remarked Ben.

As they entered the main lobby, Marinette praised them, "And Nifty."

They follow Solomon into an elevator because it had a posh appearance. An vacant room with ample room for a decent brawl was their first visit. He activates the chamber, causing a robot drone to materialize out of thin air, saying, "This is the training room. It's where you'll learn to perfect your fighting ability or spar with each other." You may practice in any environment of your choice because it can create holograms with substantial mass and, as an added bonus, has the environment settings to make the room look like a tropical beach.

Lance couldn't deny how spectacular this was, yet he said, "Hmm, not bad."

They subsequently advanced to a level with numerous computers and scientific labs filled with a variety of other tools. "Here, you'll find the lab. You can gather and save data on the primary computing device and should you wish, we provide sufficient supplies for every aspect of science enabling anybody proficient with carrying out experiments, in addition to making any sort of technology you want here."

Zak nods in agreement with Octus and Steel on this one. "Oh, this venue was going to be a lot of fun for them."

Next was the level that reached the very top, where there was a sizable window sill with a clear view of the vast ocean and the entire city, as well as a sizable couch big enough to accommodate all of them. It was, to put it mildly, a recreation area, and there was even a kitchen nearby. "The top floor will help if you want to unwind and relax. A holographic screen can be found in this region. He switches it on, plays a vintage cartoon with a bunny and a duck, and then shuts it off. "The tower also includes an armory to store your gear, the area outside will be for any vehicles you may have, and of course, a floor that houses your own separate individual rooms. Jack, Ashi. Since you two are married, you'll share one."

Jack acknowledges his appreciation. "Much appreciated, my friend."

Then, when Ben saw some guitars and drums in the room whose door was open he remarked, "A band room."

"You're grandfather told me you have a band and I decided to give you guys a Band room" remarked Solomon.

"Wow, thanks," Ben remarked.

Steven sits on the couch and says, "Hey, guys. Check out the view." One can view the coast and pretty much the entire Sherman region from there. "The whole city can be seen from up here."

With the exception of Lance, the others all joined shortly after and took in the scene. "This is all impressive, but I still fail to see how we can be better coordinated here."

Adrien remarked, "Oh, come on, Lance. Lighten up immediately." "We received our own fancy HQ. Never rain on our parade."

Star also added her voice. "Yeah, you big parade rainer."

Solomon gestures toward the elevator again. They climbed back in and they all walked down, and it was way down, "Perhaps one of our final steps will interest you." They quickly had to grab onto something before realizing they were passing through an underwater conduit. Star and Manny enjoy watching the fish pass by. When they go to the submerged area, a big locked door that resembles a blast door is there to greet them. A holographic map of the entire planet, a few weapons that were ready to use, and eventually a vast round table with a total of 23 seats for each of them could be seen inside when Solomon entered the entry codes. "This is the lower level. You can convene here to talk about significant issues, and this is also where I and the other aforementioned higher ups will send you missions and emergency notifications."

Ilana softly taunted her bodyguard, "Good enough for you now?"

"Now, if you'll join me up to the top."

Solomon returns to the exterior and takes them to the aviation field, where there were parking places and a structure. He pushed open the doors to see a recognizable aircraft, but this time it was painted in blue and white and had a glossier finish. Manny remembers, "Hey, that's the same ship we used to rescue Ben."

Penn offered Sashi a smirk that caused her to playfully punch his arm. "We made new modifications to it. Fit with a new name, the Photon cruiser. It's capable of traveling up to high speeds, can travel to both space and other dimensions, has quarters for the team, and has an updated communications system."

Solomon gets a concerned face as he puts his fingers on his ear to indicate that he has received a message from one of his subordinates, but he maintains his composure for the benefit of the team. And he walks away, saying, "Well, I should leave you to it, then."

Ilana asked, "You're not staying?"

He then turns to face the princess. "This tower was made for the Ultra Legion, and last I checked, I wasn't a member. But because you know, if you're in need of anything, G3 is going to be willing to supply you with anything. The same applies for the other organizations which helped make all of this possible. Additionally, you might find additional features of the tower that may please most of you. As you were." A G3 ship unexpectedly lands and he enters. observe it take off into the sky.

"So what's next?" asked Marco.

Lance leaves without saying anything else, saying only, "I'll be in the meeting room."

Ilana suggested that "I should go with him." "To keep him company."

"Ilana, I'll accompany you too," Ben said.

Rex murmurs, "Doesn't look like that guy prefers company." "Well, I think we should explore this island a bit, Solomon told us that there were likely a few surprises. Why not look around? Any takers?"

Jake shrugs, "Got nothing better to do."

Steven said, "I'm game."

Manny joins in as well, saying, "Count me in."

Max remarks as they make their way to the island's forest region to see what awaits them there: "Hope there's room for one more."

Adrien jumped on it too, "Better make those two."

Zak replied, excited to enter the scientific lab, "I want to try my hand at that lab."

Octus walks with him, saying, "I will go with you."

Jenny followed suit, saying, "Wait up."

Penn turns to face his partner. He said, even though he already knew the reply, "So, I take it you're going to the training room?"

Sashi didn't waste any time pulling out her own pink-colored MUHU, which when attached to her chest, activates her fighting armor. She then sprints ahead to claim the opening.

Danny had the same thoughts. "You know, I'd like to try going around there. See if it's just as good as Solomon said."

Kim smiles, "I had in mind the same thing."

Aang said the word "same".

"Then, shall we?" Jack asked, leading Ashi and the others to the training room.

Then Star felt a rumbling in her tummy. She asks, "Do you think we can go to that kitchen?"

Marco shakes his head, "Really?" "You just ate strawberry muffins before we left."

"Yeah, but currently, I'm starving again. Why don't me you make me some of your nachos? They're super tasty, and while you're at it, why not try some yourselves, guys?" She turns to her companions. "Marco serves the best nachos."

When Ron heard that his favorite snack dish was mentioned, his interest was immediately piqued. Well, put on an apron, Marco, because I need to eat. "Seriously?" He practically drools, and Rufus rubs his eager pink tummy.

"He'll keep going until you agree, Marco!"After hearing, Kim shouts back a warning.

Marco modestly lifts his hair. "Well, I don't think they're particularly great. I mean, I'll try to do my best, but I am not sure if you'll all like them."

"Can't be any worse than what they serve on Tuesdays at my school." Randy says. When he admits that he and other pupils once had food laced with actual roadkill, along with the principal's after-school events, he still occasionally spits up in his mouth.

Penn shrugs, "Heck, we can all eat."

With everyone following them inside, Star pulls Marco and says, "Great! Now, let's go!"

---

On this island, there was just too much forest, making it difficult to venture into the woods in search of anything important. Some of the guys were growing weary of this situation. Jake slaps a few bugs away, "Jeez, you'd think Solomon would've given us a heads up about this secret surprise or something." "Not to mention the pest control problem."

Adrien questioned, "Who wants to beg that he was just pulling our legs?"

Rex agrees by nodding. He immediately thinks of Agent Six and replies, "Yeah, kind of like someone I know back home." He mutters, mostly to himself, "Plus Lance."

Max responds, "Didn't get a joking feeling from him. In reality, it's challenging to sense anything about the man.

Manny grumbles, "Too bad we can't finish this faster."

Steven then has a thought. He then changed into his pink state and said, "Actually, Manny. I can help with that." He then ran off at super speed and returned in the next second. He dashes away again, this time shouting, "I found something! Follow me!"

Everyone pursued Steven, and when they did, they discovered that he had changed back into a human being, with a basketball court behind him. Manny had to say, but he was still happy: "Whoa, didn't think he'd include this."

"Alright, most of the members of our team are teenagers, you guys included." Steel responds. "Makes sense as you think about it."

Rex then develops a grin. "Hey, guys. Who's up for shooting hoops, Super Style?"

The others all smiled as they realized what he meant.

The game was 3-on-3. Jake, El Tigre, and Cat Noir vs. Rex, Steven, and Max Steven changing into his pink condition, the last two becoming their superhero alter egos, and Max entering Turbo Speed Mode. Cat Noir stopped Steven as he sprinted while dribbling the ball to the opposite hoop by slipping his leg under the hawk's feet. The Parisian hero jumps and says, "Sorry, Steven." He is only a step away from giving his team a point when Max Steel takes the ball out of the cat's claws without even letting him blink or move. "What the?"

Max moves quickly and makes a slam dunk with no issues, shouting "Denied!"

El Tigre leaps to catch the ball. He may be on the short side, but that didn't mean he wasn't ready to make a point. "We're not out of this yet!" he said. Although he managed to amazingly elude both Max and Steven, there was still one obstruction in his path.

Rex uses the Blast Caster to make a run at the ball and says, "Sorry, little buddy. But, this is your stop." The young hero hops on top of Rex's head and uses him as a launcher to launch off in order to score for his squad, but El Tigre launches his claws to negate it. He calls out to the dragon that has just flown over to score a point, "Jake, over to you!"

Jake throws the other cat-themed superhero, saying, "Uh-Huh! Can't touch this, fools!" "All yours, Cat!"

Cat Noir was certain he would win if Steven hadn't stepped in at just the right moment and grabbed the ball, saying, "Sorry, Cat. But, this one's mine."

Infuriated, Adrien responded, "Oh come on, dude."

Steven said, "Sorry dude, but this game is over," and then he turned back to face Jake, Manny and Cat Noir. "And that, my friends, is a game."

Jake wasn't happy, though. "I call it a rematch, Steven."

Max wipes the perspiration from his forehead. "You know, we might want to bring some of the others for a bit of action. We may be a team of superheroes, but we can still have fun."

"I can tell you right now, I might not anticipate Lance to say yes," Rex said. He adopts a grim stare in a feeble attempt to mimic the corporal. "He'll probably be all "sorry, I'm too busy brooding in a dark corner and worrying about the princess since, I don't really have that much of a life outside of my work, yadda, yadda, yadda...'"

Steven might understand, but it still seems a touch excessive, "What do you have against Lance anyway?" He can be a bit of a jerk, for sure, but I think he should simply give this team a chance.

Rex says, "That's the thing that I am not sure he will." "Come on, you've witnessed the way he acts. The dude prefers to fly solo and only accepts help from Ilana and Octus. Plus, he doesn't appear to be as pumped as we are about working together."

Max responds, "Maybe, although it seems he just needs to know us better." "I imply that it doesn't seem like he's saying smack about us right this second."

Lance reviews as he stands behind a screen that displayed numerous drawbacks of some of the people who are gathering in their new HQ, "So, to sum everything up, the majority of this team's members are made up of gung-ho reckless amateurs who never stop to think before blasting things with no restraint." To show Ilana that there might be numerous issues in the future, the soldier only needed to point out their mistakes. "Observing this, could you really say it would be qualified for handling every challenge presented to us? We may have defeated the Novatrons together, yet that was achieved by pure luck. Wouldn't say for certain if they'd be reliable for other missions."

If there was anything that disturbed Ilana, it was Lance's critical nature in general and his lack of trust in people. She is familiar enough with him to know that his heart beats even though he presents a frigid veneer. He simply has trouble demonstrating that.

"Look, Lance. It's too early to make judgments about us so quickly. We haven't gone out for a first mission yet, but you're already jumping to conclusions." Ben said,

Lance says, "For good reason." "All of us don't know anything about you guys aside from the fact we can't be certain of your dependability on the field, something you should also be concerned about." He lets out a sigh and adopts a softer His thoughts wandered to a specific machine kid who has no idea what restraint is, "Look, I understand you're excited by the possibility, but no matter the way you look at it, I simply can't fully trust each of you yet. Specifically one in particular."

Ilana explains, "That is the entire point, Lance." "All of us might not know each other not quite well now, nevertheless give it time. I am certain we'll develop into a close-knit group which can rely on one another in the future. This is the entire purpose of a team like this, for us to help each other grow to be people and become better than we are now. I have hope for the Ultra Legion, possibly you should too. If not for myself and Octus, then maybe, for yourself."

Lance could not truly refute Ben and Ilana's argument, but regrettably he had his own reservations. "Maybe therefore, however I don't believe we can understand each other if we're cooped up in this place."

Ilana's brain suddenly lit up with insight. She thinks for a moment and wipes her chin.

He was compelled to be cautious. "What are you thinking right now?"

In a cautious tone, Ben added, "I'm with Lance on that one.

Jenny Wakeman sighs in annoyance as she hears her mother speak through the phone connection that can broadcast across dimensions, "Yes, mom. I'm perfectly safe. No, there aren't any errors in my systems. I think I'd know that." It's hardly surprising that Nora Wakeman was able to navigate that in order to contact her daughter. She quickly hangs up before her creator/mother could finish and scratches her metal skull. "Yeah. Alright, I love you, too. Bye." "Crikey, is there no place safe from her?"

The young covert scientist remembered something from his history and immediately knew the solution. "You have absolutely no idea. Couldn't say I blame them in their final days however. You should've seen me back when I was about 11. I used to get myself into every sort of trouble with my brother, Fiskerton. I've certainly grown up quite a bit since that time, nevertheless they're still my parents. What are you gonna do?"

Octus joins the talk as he continues to examine the surroundings. "Obviously, Jenny, your creator who serves as a mother to you, simply desires to make certain that no injury or any type of distress occurs to you in another realm. It is a normal and characteristic typical of humans when it occurs in parental units. I occasionally must demonstrate exactly the same concern when I am in my dad disguise."

Zak and Jenny ask, "Dad disguise?"

The robot gives an example by switching from being Newton to being Dad and then back to being Newton. "It's a component of mine, in order to Lance's, and Ilana's cover as an average normal family in a residential area."

Jenny lauds, "Clever."

I have to thank my parents for helping to make this place possible, especially the lab here. It's just like the lab back at the airship, but when combined with all the other dimensional technology, I could whip up some epic stuff for us to use. Like an unlimited fuel force for our ship, or perhaps some new gear. I guess you have a point, Octus. Truth be told, their advice always helped me out in the past. Since this is such high-quality material, we could even be able to create some enhancements, however we might need to try them out first before deploying them on missions. I'm rambling, aren't I? Not to mention the lengthy hours I might have to work, he humiliation, Zak blushes.

Jenny laughs. "Little bit, yeah."

Zak scratches his nape and says, "Heh, that's what I thought." "But, can you blame me? The whole setup is each scientist's dream."

Octus responded, "Agreed." "Your ideas seem very compelling. Possibly I might help along with Steel and together the three of us being able to provide the team with technological advancements which, in turn, might help us in the field." He stops. "I am receiving a message from Ben and Ilana."

Soon after receiving the identical message on their travel gadgets, Jenny and Zak were left wondering what the universe hero and the Galalunia princess wanted.

When Solomon told the crew what to expect, the training room easily surpassed all of their expectations.

Once they joined the training program and came to an agreement, Danny, Jack, Ashi, Kim, Aang, and Sashi did the same. As numerous flying drones shoot upon Danny Phantom from above, he becomes invisible to escape their line of fire. He fired several ecto-blasts at them as soon as he solidified, turning them into pixel data bytes.

The others were down below. Kim charges the three practice dummies with staff weapons as she runs. She carefully avoids each blow and knees one in the chin to claim its weapon. She then sprints at more of the dummies with jabs, and each of them evenly vanishes into bytes.

Aang uses a combination of his firebending and airbending to strike more of the dummies, who all instantly vanish into bytes.

When they are finished, Jack engages in a series of sword fights with a foe who was four-armed and held a sword in each hand. The samurai deflects each blow intended for him before quickly cutting off one, then the next three, and finally, in one final blow, he pierces the opponent's chest with his supernatural katana, rendering him invisible. The half-demon escaped its grasps as she extended her hands to super size to seize two fists and tore the computer created arms off, driving the opponent away. His wife, Ashi, was fighting the monstrous juggernaut that stampeded towards her.

Orb missiles are thrown at Sashi as she runs around the chamber, but she uses her energy blades to slice and dice them with each swift step.

Danny says as he lands, "Not bad, you guys." "We all pulled it off pretty great."

Kim sighs, twisting the staff like a baton before tossing it aside, where it disappears into data. "You should see Ron and I when we're on missions."

Aang responded, "Yeah, same with my team."

"I must say, this training room will be satisfactory in keeping everyone at their fullest." Jack said honestly.

Ashi asks whether anyone else is concerned about how the others are faring.

Sashi replies with a shrug, "I'm sure they're fine." "There's no big emergency, so they're probably goofing off. I know Boone is."

Jack noticed that Danny couldn't stop thinking about something at that point. "Is something troubling you, Danny?"

The halfa pledges, "Nothing major." "But, I simply can't help but notice that despite the fact we've got our own name and our own place, that pretty much makes us official, yet we can't just come together in order to battle off alien invasion. Just downplaying the win, but I'm simply demonstrating a point. I've been friends with Jake and Randy for a while now, and Jake once teamed up with Kim and Ron previously, all I'm saying is, I believe if we're going to become a good team, then we've got to learn to be a bit more...close."

Jack touches his chin with a finger. "Hmm. You make a very compelling point. When I was a child, my father was always telling me tales about the greatest and most powerful of kingdoms whose might carried out not simply come from the enormity of their population or power, however from their dependence on one another, that originated from their strong connection which helped won them many victories over invading forces."

Sashi asks rhetorically in a slightly snide tone, "So, what? You're saying we should get together for sleepovers?"

Kim turned to the samurai's wife and said, "I am not sure, Sashi. Danny's not really wrong." "Exactly what do you think, Ashi?"

At first, it was difficult for Ashi to respond. She said, "Well, um...I guess only time will tell." Fortunately, she received a message. "Did anyone else just receive a message from Ben and Ilana?"

Danny responds, "Yeah." "Say we should meet at the lobby, guess we should go check it out."

Marco was lucky that there were enough supplies for cooking in the kitchen already. Otherwise, he would have had to spend a lot of time making nachos for everyone. He had little time to fully explain as everyone moved quickly to grab as much as they could. "Okay, guys. There aren't that many, so try to take small pieces at a time and don't be..." "...selfish. Never mind, go right ahead. It's not like I can make more."

Star tells him, "Oh, stop whining." "They love them. See?"

Indeed, the dinner was well received by the others. Randy replied as he dipped his into cheese and ate more, "Dude, these are the cheese.

Penn hums in agreement before he sees his best friend engaged in activity. He remarks that the so-called smart man was only cramming his mouth with nothing but cheese and leaves the nachos alone and says, "Boone, why are you only eating the cheese?"

Boone says, drooling cheese staining the floorboards, "Think about it as a different option. By filling my mouth with cheese, and stuffing it into the nachos, I don't need to dip it first. Pretty genius, right?"

Marinette scowled in utter contempt as she watched this. "Gross. Do you even realize the mess that you're making?"

June responded with a cringe and a disgusted tone, "I'm with Ladybug on that."

On his owner's shoulder, Rufus chirps joyfully. Ron admits as he eats, "This is good, dude." "But, it had nothing on the miracles Bueno Nacho can serve up. Hey, you guys must visit our earth in Middleton at some point, so we can hangout there. It offers the very best for its customers. With any luck, I will order us up some delicious nacos for everybody in the house."

"Uhh what's nacos" Marinette asked.

Ron explains to everyone, puffing out his chest with pride. "A thing of my very own creation. Pay attention properly, children, let me tell you the mouthwatering goodness that makes up the naco. Now, everybody understands that the nacho and the taco have been tasty enough on their own, however one day, I was thinking to myself; what could happen if both of these foods came together into some super food? In addition it was thus, when I created the naco. The perfect combination between the two and fairly popular if I do say so myself."

Randy had to hear, "Wait a minute, Ron." one more time. "You saying you'd actually created a fusion between a nacho and a taco? Better not keep teasing us, dude." He warns. "A buddy of mine had been dreaming about something like that ever since our kindergarten days, which means you better not be messing with us, because that would be considered not cool."

The boyfriend of the girl who can do anything promised said, "Well, I tease you not, young ninja Randy." "I promise you that a single bite will introduce your eyes to an entirely new world of deliciousness that will have your taste buds begging for more."

Randy rushes to the closest boys toilet they had seen earlier, which mercifully had stalls, saying, "Um, hold that thought, guys. I gotta use the can real quick." He gets on the toilet and pulls out the Ninjanomicaon, an eight-century-old book containing the knowledge and wisdom gathered and documented by numerous prior ninjas. He opens the pages and immediately drops asleep as his consciousness is captured by the old book. "Okay, Nomicon, this had better be good. I'm about to discover a revolutionary snack food and I don't wanna miss out," he says.

Randy yells as he tumbles through the various pages, past numerous ninja warrior drawings and numerous mythical Japanese creatures. He crashes hard on a rocky place and rubs his aching head. He then sees a big shogun with many other warriors, and above them was the book's most recent lesson, to which he exclaims, "Ow! That was the easily the most painful schlump."

Trust your teammates rather than just yourself. The only way to win is by means of cooperation, but cooperation requires unity.

The teen reads this and scratches his purple hair. The shogun and his warriors facepalm, and Randy is instantly thrust back into the real world. "What? You're saying the members of the legion are not that close? That's just crazy, I mean, we managed to stop an alien invasion. I really like our chances as a group." He jumps when the door starts banging, "I gotta find a timer for this thing."

Marco says, "Hey, Randy. Are you decent there?" in his voice.

The boy with purple hair quickly places the book into his backpack. "Uh, yeah. Just about finished, Marco. What's up?"

"Ben and Ilana had just sent out a mass message through our transport." Boone said. "they ordered to meet at the lobby, must be really important."

After receiving the message from Ben and Ilana, the entire team gathered in the lobby of the main entrance. They were standing with Lance, who had his hands in his pockets and had a glum expression in contrast to the cheery grin his best friend was wearing on her face. Max says as Steel hovers next to him. They and those who went to the basketball court were the last ones to arrive because they were farthest from the tower. "Alright, you guys. I'll bite. What did you call us here for?"

Jake jerks a thumb at the team that was against his, "Yeah, we were in the midst of wiping off the floor with these fools."

"Jake, I'm pretty sure you've got that backwards," Steel said.

As he starts to talk about what he wants to talk about, Ben clears his throat to draw everyone's attention. "Okay, guys. The main reason why we called everyone right here was since Ilana and I had been successfully interacting with Lance, as well as I've come to realize that since we are going to be working as a team, we then must spend time with one another. And that doesn't require any sort of an invasion. That means that I believe it's just right we should take everyone on a little outing in the city itself. An opportunity to show you all what it's like when it's not under attack."

Sashi looks dubious and asks, "Seriously?" "That is what you called us out here for, Ben? The last time I checked, this group was not a social club."

Octus bowed his head and said, "Not necessarily." "But, Sashi, you must admit that this could prove to be beneficial to us all. I have recorded that social interaction is an important team-building exercise."

Marinette continued. "Yeah. I mean, we are going to be working together from now on. What if we have a mission in one of our hometowns? It could help to get us a lay of the land, or something like that."

The answer to Jack's question, "So, are we in agreement?" was a sequence of nods. Consequently, we will proceed with your plan, Ben." He started to go but Ilana stopped him. "Is something the matter?"

Ilana frowns apprehensively. "Not to be offensive, Jack. But, your choice in clothing isn't exactly...up to speed."

Ben pointed to Aang and said, "Same with you Aang."

Aang questioned as he examined his attire, "What? Is there something wrong with my clothes?"

"Dude, they're right. You guys definitely play it old school." Jake continues.

"It might draw some unwanted attention and take my assurance for it, it helps to keep a low profile." Danny concurs. "But, the two of you can still keep your weapons. Just hide it somewhere."

Jack gives his white gi a perplexed gaze. "Then, what do you recommend we wear?"

Aang continued, "Yeah, I was going to ask the same question," as he examined his attire.

Ilana beams, "I have just the thing for you two."

Ilana had personally selected Jack and Aang's new attire to make it more period-appropriate while the group awaited their arrival. Red jeans, white and gray Converse shoes, a black shirt, a light orange jacket, a hoodie to cover the arrow in his head, some black fingerless gloves to cover the arrow in his arms, and a black and orange striped hat are all part of Aang's outfit. Jack is wearing a white shirt under a blue jacket, dark shoes, and blue jeans.

Marinette said admiringly, "Wow. It's not a bad look for you two."

Jake gives them a thumbs up and says, "Looking fly, bros.

Heh, thanks, said Aang.

While accepting the praise, Jack pauses to examine his new attire. I feel strange not having my gi on. It was almost always on over the majority of my travels, and I hardly ever went without using it. It serves as a samurai's signature.

"Everything is the first time. Additionally, I think it makes you look pretty slimmer," Ashi added, kissing her husband on the cheek.

Moreover, Ashi. Ilana informs the half-demon, "I'm sorry, I couldn't locate anything for you to wear.

Ashi concentrates intently as the black mass enveloping her body starts to move and change into garments of her own choosing as she tries to come up with a solution to this issue. The mass transforms into a brief jacket without a hood over a red tank top, biker shorts, and black boots. She asks the samurai, who could only gape, "Does this look well, Jack?"

Jack was at a loss for words as he found her intriguing in that dress and could only reply, "Uh...g-great."

Rex speaks softly to Star. He snickers with her, "And I thought we were teenagers."

The robot girl is then June's focus. "What about you, Jenny? No offense, but we can't just say you're really pale with dyed blue hair."

The best work of Nora Wakeman smirks. Her internal gears began to change as a shell began to develop over Jenny's metal body, saying, "I thought ahead, June." She now has red hair that is pulled back into pigtails, a blue dress, black shoes, and white stockings on. "I had mom work on this human look in case I needed to disguise myself for a mission."

"Smart."

Ilana claps her hands, "All right. "Now, we just need some transportation."

---

The legion flew to Sherman in stealth so as not to cause any kind of commotion among the populace, boarding into the Photon cruise with Lance at the wheel. When the Novatrons assaulted their city, they had already endured enough hardships, so it would be impossible for them to see them as their saviors. Star reflects as she examines all the efforts being made to rebuild, "Man, I knew this place was hit hard with the alien invasion and all, but I didn't think there'd be this much damage." She mostly asked the Titan trio, "Is it the same as the places we went when we split up to attack all those alien fortresses?"

Octus nods, "Yes, Star. "So far, everything has gone smoothly in the repairs to all the cities that were hit the hardest, but it's still a long way from being restored."

Star then tapped her chin as her wand started to sparkle. "I got it! I can use my magic to fix everything!"

Jenny hesitantly questioned, "Uh, you sure that's a good idea, Star?" "Most of your spells are mostly for blowing stuff up rather than fixing stuff."

"That, and every time you try to use it as a shortcut, it kinda only makes things worse." Marco reminds her of that.

Star gaps were horrified by the charge. "I do not."

"Otis the opposum?"

Beat.

"Okay. Fair point."

Ben says, "Hope you don't mind me saying this, guys, but I think it'd be best if we all don't use any of our powers." When he sees their surprised looks, he goes on to explain why. "Look, we're in a whole different universe, one where it's not used to some of the things we've seen. Save for aliens, but still, not sure how'd they react if they saw us and our...gifts."

Lance speaks up, maintaining his eyes on the sky, "On that, we can agree." "This city has been through enough. The last thing that the people need is for them to worry about a bunch of kids who use their inhuman abilities with no restraint. You might as well flush this entire Ultra Legion plan down the toilet, so don't do anything crazy."

Kim turns to gaze at some of the others. The entire intimidating soldier thing is a little over the top, you know, he could just say don't mess up.

Manny grouses, "And how come he gets to drive."

"Pretty sure you might need to be as tall as him and have a license, Manny," the Possible girl chuckles playfully, causing him to sulk a little.

"Prepare for landing."

All of the passengers exit the Quantum and go down to the street's sidewalk after it settles on the roof of an old, abandoned building. This was a section of Sherman that had, for the most part, been flawlessly rebuilt since then. Apart from a few structures that were still off-limits to the public, everything else continued as usual. Ilana gestures to a structure that was identical to a retail mall, otherwise known as: "Alright, so I think the best place to go is right there."

The Legion soon entered, and Ilana led them to a map of the area. As she looks around to see where they would all like to go, she says, "Okay, we can maybe go to the..." "Hmm, the best I can find is the food court. That way, we can all be together."

Marco said, "I don't know." "Some of us just ate nachos back at HQ."

Ron taps his tummy, "And now, I'm in the mood for some pizza." "Plenty of room here for some more."

The team then proceeded to the food court where they were able to find a table large enough to accommodate everyone while Max, Marco, and Marinette placed the group's order. The cashier informed them, "That'll be $60.95 for three boxes of pizza, with soda beverages and fries.

Looking inside her purse with Tikki inside, Marinette confesses, "Shoot. I don't have that kind of money." "Max, what about you?"

The half-Tachyon creature takes his empty pockets out. "Sorry. I'm cleaned out."

Marco averted his sight and asked, "Allowance?" He hoped that word of "Turdina" never gets to the Legion. "Uh, yeah, sure. That's how I got my money. Definitely no other explanation." If not, they won't let him hear the last of it. He taps his fingers on the counter and decides to swiftly shift the topic in order to stop further questions regarding the source of his seeming money. "Soooo, what's it like being both superheroes and high school students?"

The head-shaking Marinette. "Honestly, it couldn't be more annoying. constantly getting to keep secrets to your friends and family, and aside from every time Cat and I have to deal with the supervillain of the week instead of doing our own thing. So yeah, it's not exactly the world's most perfect job. Part of me wonders how I got this far without messing up."

"For me, it's almost kind of easy. My folks, including Ben, Rex, and Zak, have been in the whole saving the world game since before I was even born. It also pays to have friends on a planet protecting military organizations. That doesn't mean it's easy to hide your secret identity from a few of the more nosy and clever kinds of friends except for Ben, Rex, and Zak." Marco turns to Max. "What about you? What kind of adventure do you and Star get into?"

Marco uncomfortably chuckles at that. He responds, "The crazy kind." "We're not exactly ordinary people with double lives, yet that doesn't mean we weren't fighting our fair share of shady characters who're wanting Star's wand. Besides that, we just travel to any dimension to have some fun, until something life threatening happens to us."

The others were waiting at the table and chatting at the same time. "So you have this ghost powers that any ghost can do Danny" remarked Octus.

"And yet, it was caused by a ghost portal that your dad invented and your girlfriend asked you to go in the portal and check it out. By every reason, this results in you having that power by an accident." Sashi sighed.

Danny breathes out loud. "I prefer an unfortunate accident, Sashi."

Ben agrees that not all accidents are harmful. "Accidents are not that bad. How else do you think could have gotten the Omnitrix? Actually, the Omnitrix wasn't meant for me; it was intended for my grandpa, but grandpa said that I was the perfect choice for keeping the Omnitrix."

Ben, how many different aliens can you actually become?", Ron enquired.

"I only had ten when I first received the prototype. Ben guesses, "But, I unlocked much more forms over the years, so I'd say roughly 990.

"990?!"Can you transform into one right now?" Star exclaims. Pleaaaaase?"

"Remember the talk about low profile?," Zak nudges her."

The magic princess asks with narrowed brows, "Oh, okay, Mr. Mind Reader, but how do I know you're not playing those nasty tricks on me?

Ron's eyes enlarge. "Zak, she has a point."

The covert scientist clarifies a little more by pinching the bridge of his nose. "Okay, first of all, you're thinking of psychics, Star. And secondly, I can only read the minds of cryptids. Can't even imagine what reading human minds is like."

"I am not sure I'd appreciate someone just rummaging through my head." Kim grumbles.

Adrien and the Norrisville Ninja were chit-chatting. "So, on your earth, there had been way more ninjas before you, Randy?"

Randy described his hometown's Ninja heritage, concluding, "Pretty much." "A new ninja is chosen every four years. A freshman is handed the book and mask and has to carry on the legacy of protecting the town of Norrisville from the forces of evil and all that."

"Huh. Kind of the same with myself and Bugaboo. Past Miraculous holders have existed throughout history before we were chosen on our earth." Adrien stares at his ring that is black.

Then Randy mentioned something. "You know, Cat. I don't understand why you and Ladybug refuse to reveal to us who you are underneath those masks, it's not like we'll be blabbermouths. Jake, Danny, and I know our secrets." He reassured the other superheroes.

Adrien picks at his neck. "It's not that we don't trust you guys, it's just that our secret identities are pretty serious. We don't even know each other, and believe it or not, she's very serious regarding keeping that rule not broken. I could have some problems, but then again, ladies do love mystery, except for the fact that Ladybug has a crush on Ben even though she won't know her identity to him."

"Riiiight..."

Max and the other two followed, carrying all their drinks, and said, "Heads up, everyone." "Pizza coming all around." They spread the boxes and drinks out across the table, allowing everyone to open them. Each box included nine pieces of pizza, and they all drank cool beverages in addition to consuming a slice.

Everyone except Aang, Jack, and Ashi. The half-demon asks, tilting her head at the pizza's peculiar appearance. "Is this food?"

Jack commented as he stared at the cheese-filled dish, "I must admit, it is not like anything from the future where I was trapped."

"Yeah same, I've never seen this kind of food before." Aang said.

Penn gives Aang a pat on the back. "It won't bite,you guys. That's your job. Just taste for yourselves."

While the married couple shared their drink and two slices of pepperoni pizza and took a few pieces leisurely, Aang ate one slice of the veggie pizza. As their taste buds began to dance with delight, any previous misgivings they had were replaced with contentment. Aang exclaims, "Mmm, this...is amazing."

As Jack eats additional nibbles, he muses, "A little too much of the ingredient you call cheese, but the dough helps balance it out."

Jenny was even caught by June eating pizza. "How can you even swallow and taste that? Won't it mess up your electrical wiring or something?"

She gives a joking wink. "I have my ways."

Jake questions the robot, "Where does the food go once you eat, Octus?"

He waits to respond before speaking. "That's a good question."

Ilana nudges her bodyguard while grinning at how well they were all getting along. "You see? I told you all that having one outing together with no emergency is perfectly-"

BOOM!

The mall is filled with screams as a large explosion occurs nearby. The team immediately acted and ran to see what was happening. They witnessed as numerous armored soldier-like individuals with very sophisticated blasters streamed out of one store, one of them was carrying a box-like canister. They began to fire, but mainly to frighten the crowd away from the shopping center. The mall police try to step in, but these men have much better technology, so they shoot electric net launchers, trapping the police. One, who appears to be in charge, says into a wrist-mounted communicator, "We have what we came for." "Have the transport ready."

The group observes as the men make their way toward the door, but they were not going to cooperate. Randy pulls out his ninja mask from his suitcase and declares, "Well, guys. It's a hero o'clock!"

Cat Noir expresses his anger, "Please tell me that's not our catchphrase."

Marinette reminds them, "But, aren't there security cameras?" out of concern that her secret would be found out.

Zak says, holding the Secret Saturdays Crypti-pedia, "Already got ya covered." He hits a button on the gadget, the Saturday armor develops around his body, and he spins the Claw in his hands. "I've disabled them all, and by all counts, every civilian has evacuated by now. We're good." "Let's go!"

Marco perspires. "Shouldn't we leave this to the-"

"It's Hero Time," Ben said as he turned on the Omnitrix and banged the dial, transforming himself into an alien roadrunner-like humanoid. His head, chest, and limbs are covered in a silver shell, and his body is black. His beak and tail are also the same hue. His hands and feet have razor-sharp claws, and the Omnitrix symbol is on his left shoulder.

"Brightspeed," Brightspeed shouted.

"Goin' Ghost!"

"Dragon Up!"

"RAWR! El Tigre!"

"Plagg! Claws Out!"

"Tikki! Spots On!"

"Go Turbo!"

The soldiers were about to disperse when one of them was hit by a neon energy explosion. Ben, who arrived at warp speed, says, "I take it you guys aren't here for the fifty percent off deal? Too bad, because I hear they sell fedoras in your hue." The masked strangers are startled by his interference and fire at him, but the blaster somehow passes harmlessly through him. He fires the remainder as his teammates take his lead, saying, "Heh, thanks for the boost."

In addition to him, Danny Phantom and the Ninja entered the scene; the former utilized a chain sickle, and the latter flew while firing Ecto bolts. The Ninja yells, "Ninja surprise drop in!" as he knocks a soldier to the ground and draws his dual swords. He slashes some of their weapons before rendering them helpless. "If you're going to play with guns, then take it outside!"

said Danny. "Heh you guys are not getting away for this."

Everyone else joined in the large fight. Rex defends himself from blaster fire with his Block Party shields before shooing everyone away with his right Smack Hand. Ron, Kim, and Penn call out, "Let's show them we mean business! Let's bust up creeps like you! Finally, Something I can love about the mall, busting up creeps like you!" Penn returns fire, knocking them out cold and slashing their guns to bits. The martial arts expert charges forward dodging their bullets and punching them repeatedly. One of them throws an electric powered tonfa, but Ron deflected the hit before elbowing him in the stomach. Soon after, his lover leaps onto his shoulders, kicks him in the arm with an axe kick, breaking it, and then hands him a blue ball.

She salutes as the ball detonates into a thick adhesive substance that binds him in place and says, "Later."

A sniper shoots at her from a distance, but Jake and Aang exhale a fireball, scattering the assailant. Jake and Aang then flew to the line of fire of another sniper who fired a stun blast at Jake, causing the dragon to fall to the ground. Aang then goes to help Jake but a group of people aim their blasters at them, but a dimensional portal opens up and Marco, with his hood up, jumps out hitting them at pressure points, making them all fall in a frozen manner. Jake exclaimed, "Dude, Marco! That was wicked!" as Marco and Aang supported him.

Marco says, "Thanks. That actually felt pretty cool." He then turns to gaze up and sees Ilana shooting a couple with her laser from the Corus armor's headpiece. Since this was her Earth, she may know anything. "Hey, Ilana! Who are these guys?!" she said.

Ilana deploys a force field as she glides downward to protect the group from approaching fire. "I don't know! We've never seen enemies like these, but something about them seems all too familiar!"

Cat Noir repeatedly beats one goon with his batons before headbutting him. "Let's just focus on beating them, then we can ask questions!"

Max Steel is in flight mode as seen above. Steel says from the torso, "Hey, Max." Just extend your hand out and concentrate on one of your Turbo weapons, he says, "I've got a special new trick we can test out." His friend followed his instructions, and in an instant, the Turbo Sword appeared in his right palm.

Max gasps in disbelief, "Whoa! The turbo sword?!" "I don't remember packing this."

He responds to his mechanical friend, "You can thank me." "I just came up with a new way to summon all your weapons in your arsenal with just a thought, and a little ounce of Turbo energy."

Max flies, slashes them with the sword's energy, and says, "Sweet." He then decides to employ greater force. The sword was then changed into a pistol that fires tremendous blasts here and there, "Okay, go turbo blaster!" The Ultralink links to the blaster's interface and boosts the weapon's power. "Steel, link to it!" When a big group of soldiers tried to encircle Sashi and Steven, they were surrounded by their superior fighting skills and blasted away.

Sashi yells, "Hey, Max! I had that."

Max smirks, "You're welcome, Sashi."

The weapon that one of the soldiers had dropped, though, appeared eerily similar when Steven examined it. Steven remarked, "Hey, these kind of look like the guns G3 use."

In order for a soldier he was fighting to miss his shot, Zak uses the Claw as a bo-staff to knock a blaster upside-down. He then uses the grapple feature to latch onto another soldier's waist and collide with the soldier he was fighting. In contrast, June blasts with her magical braclet while Jenny unleashes massive blue spheres from two cannons above her shoulders that were powerful enough to knock them down. After hearing what Steven mentioned, Zak makes the decision to thoroughly scan the weapon. Zak says, "He's right." "They're exactly like G3's weapons, right down to the nuts and bolts."

Boone speculates that "possibly they frequent the same blaster store."

Jenny deadpanned, "Yeah, we'll keep that in mind, Boone."

Star casts one spell at all of them at once. She places them all in a crystal jail and cries out, "Petrified amber prison!" as El Tigre rips their armor to bits. She conjures a catapult and says, "Hey, Manny! I've got an idea!" "You're up, little buddy!"

The youthful hero mounted the catapult and flung himself across the sky to land in someone's stomach. Soldiers began to fire laser pointers at him as he exclaimed, "Come on, you guys! Is that the best you got?!" He raises his hands, but black tendrils capture them all and toss them aside; his savior was the team member who was half-demon; he replies, "Uh, I was just kidding." "Whew. Thanks, Ashi."

Ashi chastises Manny as if she were correcting her own child, "Next time, don't act with such impulse, Manny." Strangely, it felt right.

She is back with Star and blasting rainbow fists at them all when she steps onto a metal plate, getting caught in a net and dropping her wand in the process. She exclaims in shock as they aim their rifles, but then Lance as Manus shoots a capsule that forms a haze that blinds them before the corporal chops them away with his sword, keeping them from suffering any fatal wounds.

Star grinned up at the irate young guy, "Oh, that was kind of you, Lance."

He fires onto more of them, telling her firmly, "Wanna repay it, Star? Never blindly walk into traps like an amateur."

The Mewman takes her wand in hand and releases herself with it. She grins a little and says, "Pfft. Moody."

Jack dispatches a group of them without even breaking a sweat, as seen by the ease with which he slashes his sword against them and deflects every projectile aimed at him. Their ammunition was ineffective against his enchanted sword, and their blasters, along with the other wounded enemies that were lying on the ground, were chopped into little bits. However, at that point, robotic drones began to fire erratically at him, forcing him to flee for cover. Ladybug and Octus helped him out by using their Yo-Yos to wrap one drone and knock it to the ground while the more valiant robot attacked them with an EMP blast. "Jack, are you injured?"

Unbeknownst to them, a drone was creeping up behind them, but the samurai dispatched it with a single swipe of his sword, saying, "I'm fine, Octus." Then he hears the sound of tires screaming, "This is hardly challenging." "What is that?"

Octus hears it as well and moves closer to the mall's exterior. "Incoming!"

The entrance is broken through by a black van. The leader alerts the soldiers, "Transport's here!" He commands, as a handful of them leave the majority of their belongings behind and clamber onto the back of the van as it quickly speeds away, "We have the package, let's leave the rest!"

Ron screamed, "They're getting away!"

Rex builds the Sky Slider and exclaims, "I got this!"

Ben said, "Rex, wait-" as he tried to stop him, but Rex had already started running after the van.

Lance turns off his armor. "Idiot. He can't hope to catch them alone."

Ben returns to normal and looks to the people who can fly, saying, "Exactly." "Danny, Max, Jenny, let's back him up! Everyone else, make sure these guys are prepared for pick up when the cops show up."

Ben then activated the Omnitrix and banged it, transforming himself into an extraterrestrial with a red and yellow body that resembled a manta ray. His tail is reached by the flaps of his wings. His face is covered in four antennae. The Omnitrix emblem is on his right shoulder, and he is dressed in black shorts with shoulder padding.

"Jetray" Jetray shouted as he and others attempted to follow Rex.

When they saw the van traveling much beyond the speed limit, they pursued Rex. To keep them off their track, one gunner climbed to the topside, when Danny fires an ecto ray, taking out the gun. Max boldly declared, "Steel says that at the end of this road is a dead end, they've got nowhere left to run!" but then the van's wheels went in, the vehicle soared to the sky, and then thrusters burst out at high speed, launching the van far away from them. "Or not."

When Jetray looked down, he saw that the person wielding the gunner had been knocked off after blasting the van. As a result, Jetray slammed the omnitrix, transforming the person into a crystalline humanoid extraterrestrial with light green-blue skin, green eyes, and two crystal spikes sticking out of his back. He has the Omnitrix insignia on his breast and is dressed in a bodysuit, white slacks, and a black and green shirt.

"Diamondhead Diamondhead" yelled as he encased him in a diamond dome to stop him from escaping. "I believe we have some questions for you."

---

Following the chaos at the mall, the Legion decided to reconvene in their conference room at their headquarters to discuss the situation with one of their supporters. However, they first had to wait for the four individuals who had followed the van to return. Eventually, they did, although they did so looking less than pleased. Adrien implied, "From the looks of you, I guess the bad guys got away."

Jenny says, slouching in her chair, "You'd be right, Cat." "The only upside is that we managed to catch one, but a group of Solomon's troops came in and hauled him away. Guess the same happened with the ones at the mall."

"So, even though you made pursuit, you couldn't catch them. What a surprise." Lance said.

Rex shoots him a glare. "Well, I didn't notice you doing anything besides standing there like a stone."

Before they can say anything else, Jack says, "Enough." "What matters is the fact that no innocents were harmed, we should be thankful that we were not alone. We also got a message from Solomon. It seems he has information about these dangerous new foes."

"Speaking of which, I'm not the only one who recognized that they were using the same technology as G3, right?" Sashi inquires.

Ilana makes a headshake. "No, Sashi. You weren't, which is troubling."

Kim gives her chin a thoughtful stroke. "So, there might be a connection amongst G3 and these guys, let's hope Solomon can give us answers."

When Solomon, a recognizable voice, enters the elevator, he says that he knows information about the mall attackers. "They call themselves S.A.R.C. Strategic Advanced Recon Counterattack, a mysterious band of mercenaries with cutting-edge weaponry. They have been breaking into G3 bases and taking equipment for different uses." In addition to coming to the console to show them a screen of their new opponents, Solomon has come to the mall to inform them of their attack.

Ilana queries, "How come we were never told about them." She was more than happy to help, as did Lance and Octus.

Solomon responds, "You three already had enough on your plate." "We didn't wish to worry you."

Danny said, "I've got my own question." "Why were they attacking a mall?"

Solomon hands them a canister, the same one the S.A.R.C. soldiers had taken, and says, "For this." "Inside, is an energy source that serves as a power source for G3 headquarters or additional bases. We hid several of them in various other hidden locations around the globe, places that most would never think to look."

"Like a mall," Zak says in realization.

"Precisely. However, we underestimated how efficient and coordinated they can be. We theorize that they have skilled hackers in their ranks that have been able to crack our firewalls. More importantly, I'm afraid they've moved up their boldness." He shows them what was left of the fortress in the heart of the Amazon. "After you stopped the invasion, I had my people clean all the Novatron fortresses that you managed to occupy. But I received an alert that one in the Amazon Jungle had been raided and all its weaponry was stolen."

The leader of G3's silence satisfied Penn's question, "Was it S.A.R.C, wasn't it?" "So, we're dealing with a group of mercs who are packing alien firepower. Great," Penn said.

Ben mentioned the Forever Knights and Fisttrick, just to name a few, "I've seen the kind of damage that can be done when crooks get their hands on alien tech." "Trust me. It's not pretty."

Sashi thumps her palm with her fist, "Alright, then. We can just hunt them down and take them down." "Hard."

The stern Solomon warns them, "That would be a negative." He leaves the room to negotiate the next steps with his group, saying, "S.A.R.C is a G3 matter and will be treated as such, we already have a number of their men in custody, and you'll all have done enough for today."

Marinette admonishes. "I don't know. Maybe he has a point, we weren't able to stop the bad guys from getting away with the goods, and who knows what they'll do with it."

Rex emphasized that "no one gave us permission to fight the Novatrons." "We made that choice for ourselves. They shot first, and I say, we will fight back."

Ron asks, "How?" "We don't know wherever they might be."

Randy muttered, "So, that's it? We're benched?" "He might have given us this place, but I don't remember putting him in charge of our team."

Zak feigns ignorance before stating, "No, we don't." He starts typing on the consoles to access the G3 database but gets an ACCESS DENIED. "But, I bet I can find out." He continues to type, "Wanna bet?" At that moment, the uniform emblem broke through all firewalls and appeared. "Done and done."

June exhales, "Whoa." "Zak, how did you-"

The researcher shrugs. "They're using the same system as my parents' airship. I cracked that when I was eight."

Ilana understands with frightened eyes, "You're hacking into G3 files?!" "Zak, Solomon won't be happy about this!"

"Maybe not. But, he might appreciate us doing his work." He encourages them to examine the pictures that describe the S.A.R.C. "Says here that while S.A.R.C is pretty big on the low profile, they do seem to have a distinct pattern. So far, they've been quiet for a while, but after the Novatron invasion was stopped, they patiently waited until they got their chance to raid places with the most alien tech, that being the fortresses."

Kim identifies one picture. "Check it out. All except the one in Egypt have been cleared out of everything Novatron technology, the one in the Amazon was nearly cleared until S.A.R.C came in."

Ron nods, "I see."

Boone squints. "You understand what they're saying?"

Ron responds in a whisper, "Nope." "But, I'm nodding in order to make it look like I understand."

"Genius." Boone said.

Ben fortunately clarified it for them. "So, Egypt is their next target. It's the only other place which hasn't been cleared out, at this point so we gotta take care of this problem now."

"Solving G3's case before they do. That would be poetic fairness." Lance concludes,

Max responds, "Hey, this team is all about justice." "So, what do you want to say, Lance? You in?"

The corporal notices the resolute faces that shouted they wanted to do this as he scans the area.

Do you know anything? After all, he shares a trait with them.

Earth 5: Egypt

The G3 agents driving a cargo truck loaded with enough weaponry for an army were on their final shift. However, the vehicle had set off a S.A.R.C. trap as the driver traveled over the desert route. The driver got out of the truck and was abruptly ambushed by S.A.R.C. soldiers who were aiming at him, forcing him to throw his arms up in surrender. Two pillars shot up, blowing off the tires and causing the truck to stop once they ran out of air. The leader commands, "Check the truck for anything worthwhile." They performed as instructed, saw all the weaponry, and also obtained something additional.

"Sir, you may want to take a look at this."

Three G3 agents were present when the leader peered inside, but they were dressed in white Hazmat suits. He instructs the other soldiers as they take the G3 technicians, putting handcuffs on them, and shoving them into the cars beside the weapons. "G3 technicians. They may have a way of opening the canister. Take anyone along, but don't harm them." The driver gets shocked in the gut by the leader. "You're fortunate that we're keeping you alive, scumbag. However, we want you to deliver a little message to your leader, Solomon. There is nothing stopping S.A.R.C, so we're coming for him next."

Nothing else could keep them there, so S.A.R.C. left the driver behind and drove off. But if they had lingered, they would have witnessed the transformation of his image into a well-known robot. Through the communicator, Octus says, "They took the bait." "And all three of them are in."

The hooded Photon was up above saying, "Copy that, Octus." With the exception of four of their teammates, the others were sitting behind Ben, who is now standing next to Lance, who served once more as the pilot. "We're seeing them heading for their base from Kim's hidden camera."

Steel said, "It indicates they're traveling about fifty miles from here," turning to gaze at the base.

"Randy, has anyone spotted you?" exclaims a startled Ilana.

"Not yet completely in position but I'm not being called the Ninja for nothing, Ilana." Randy said.

The Ninja himself was perched atop the S.A.R.C. vehicle, having climbed on without anyone knowing. He observed the three held technicians via the window as well as the tapping on the glass. They nodded in return as he had them gaze at him and gave them the thumbs up.

The Ninja has to whistle secretly when he sees them driving past a field that conceals their base of operations, or complex, as they approach an empty field. The three technicians were expelled, and when one of them taps his pocket, a recognizable pink rodent scampers toward where the shadow warrior was hiding. The car drives toward the entrance, and there are more of them waiting, while one of them remarks, "Fancy lodgings. Apparently all of them have killer in the HQs." As Rufus leaves, Randy thinks to himself, "Okay, Rufus. Let's see if you're as capable as Ron claims." "Unity of the team wins the day. I suppose I never could have accomplished this entirely on my own."

Rufus gives a bow before firing. He enters where there were many wires and bites off the head of a pole, whereupon he continues to chew, sparking little bits of metal and weakening the security system. They were hauled before the canister along with the prisoners.

"If you refuse to allow us to execute you three, subsequently you will open that canister."

One of them says, "Here's option B." as he pulls the cuffs apart, glows blue, and punches the people securing him. The other leaps, kicks two people in the face, and uses her feet to pick up the key and open the locks. Then she removed the hazmat mask off the other and did the same, letting her red hair fall behind her back.

Speaking over her communicator, she says, "This is Kim. Now or never."

Jetray, Rex, Jenny, Max Steel, Ashi, Octus, Ilana, Danny, and Jake flew through a hole in the ceiling and attacked the base as a dimensional portal sprang up, allowing the rest to join them.

Cat Noir snatches Sashi by the hand and spins her around so she may kick the opponent while using his staff to flip one's blaster away. The Ninja makes his presence known as he fires several smoke bombs to divert a bunch and then he takes them out with two nunchucks. Danny swoops in and strikes many of them with ecto charged fists. He easily cracks their helmets with his weapons while yelling "Ninja wild chucks!" He then wraps a chain around one of their arms and flings him over. Octus takes on more, causing them to collide with multiple computers, and instead of being shot, he manufactures electric orbs that kill them. Ilana uses her lasers to destroy the weapons that the explosion caused, rendering them unusable to the bad men. Ashi then falls to the ground and assaults them with her mace hands, capturing many of them with the black tendrils that have emerged from her back.

El Tigre jumps and attacks their former owners with two chain claws across the chests before crushing their two heads together, rendering them defenseless. He also grabs two blasters. Just as he was ready to shoot her, the Parisian hero wraps using her Yo-Yo around his neck and pulls him to a wall, shouting, "Hey, Ladybug! On your left!".

Ladybug smiles gratefully to El tigre, "Thanks for the heads up, kid."

Rex withdrew the Boogie Pack in favor of the Fun Chucks, then wacked a large number of them away. However, as Lance was battling a few of them on his own, Rex noticed that some of them had electrified staffs. As a result, Rex leaped up with his Punk Busters and landed down, blowing the electrified staffs into the concrete. "How's that for a complete amateur."

Instead of responding, Lance switches on the Manus armor and shoots the drones before they can fire at the EVO adolescent. "You're getting there."

"Careful. This really sounded like a compliment." Rex laughs.

Although within the armor, Lance had his own smirk as he fired his wrist guns and then pulled out a big axe to assault these S.A.R.C men, saying, "Shut up and fight."

They moved to another entrance, where it opened, and Rufus was waiting for them with a flash disk. Zak uses the Claw as a staff and helps Cat Noir in attacking the troops. Zak strokes the head of the naked mole rat, "Huh. Not a bad catch. Nice work, little guy."

Cat Noir motions to another door that is about to open, revealing one S.A.R.C. soldier controlling a mech suit that is equipped with a variety of weaponry. "Seriously?!"

"Go Turbo! Strength!"

Jetray assisted Max Steel as he fired neuro-shocks behind the mech machine, only to fly away when missiles were released from the back. Max Steel utilizes his boosted strength to strike the mech suit in the face, but it then shoots with a concentrated laser blast that sends the turbo hero back.

"I need a new game plan." Jetray said as he slapped the omnitrix sign, transforming into a humanoid plant that resembled a Venus flytrap that had been dug out by the roots. His body is totally composed of green and brownish-green roots and vines, save for his one-eyed head and wide collar of teeth. Six bare seeds are dangling from his back. On each of his shoulders are two blue orbs. His left side of his chest has the Omnitrix emblem, and both his chest and his "arms" are covered in a uniform that allows some of his vines to take the appearance of thumbless, three-fingered hands.

"Wildvine" Wildvine yelled as he stretched out two arms to trap it in place. "Give it all you've got, guy! " He then yelled to his teammates. Max then tore off the right arm completely as Aang burned the left arm with firebending. Wildvine then tosses explosives into the suit, causing the S.A.R.C. troop to flee as the suit explodes.

Kim grabs one and throws him to the ground between her knees. She then activates her rocket skate shoes, dashes across, places various disks on several thugs, and flips a switch to stun them all till they fall asleep on the ground. Jenny unleashes a chest explosion and some powerful kicks while using her crab-claw arms to grab opponents and knock them to the ground. Back in his trademark white gi, Jack deflects a staff blow, slices the weapon in half, and then strikes the opponent in the head with the weapon's handle. Boone uses wrist mounts to levitate approaching mercenaries, placing them in Star and June's crosshairs.

They grin. Star said, "Dagger Crystal Heart Attack!" as June fired her blaster wand at the adversaries, sending several razor-sharp hearts and a spiral attack flying in their direction.

There were numerous slash marks on their armor, but Star warned that there would be more. "Mega Starfish Tsunami!" A starfish tidal wave sweeps them away and overwhelms them. "I love this hero stuff!"

Marco repeatedly backflips till he jumps and kicks one right in the chet. He then cuts open a little portal and sneakily punches the merc on the other side. With intense concentration, he fires a torrent of fire from his daggers, sending the warriors in his path outside as they become unfit for battle. He exclaims with a smile, "That was...awesome!"

Penn sat on Jake's back as the latter fired fireballs at the vehicles to stop anyone from fleeing, but the former noticed some people had gotten on one and tried to flee, so he decided to step in and stop them. "Jake, fly us in closer!" Penn orders as he jumps onto the car's roof and slashes his sword through the hood, stunning the driver and causing him to swerve. However, Penn gets off as soon as Jake grabs the car and, using his power, raises it up and rattles it till the mercenaries are flung out. Hey, bozos," Penn says as he knees one and makes a gesture toward another. "I'd stay down if I were you."

Jake grinned at the soldier, "Or don't. More fun for us."

The leader is shooting at Ilana and Ben, but Ben doesn't appear to care as he slaps the omnitrix transforming him into Ghostfreak and levitates the weapon away. Ghostfreak tells him, "This is over. Our team has taken out your base, and all of your cronies are down."

He is given the order to submit by Ilana, who adds, "Surrender, and we won't harm you."

The leader, however, had no interest in being captured. Ilana screams as he produces a large artillery piece and apologizes, "Sorry, darling. But not today."

She instinctively pushes Ben aside so he can use a covert escape route as soon as the commander begins firing. "That weapon..."

He got away, says Ben as he moans and transforms back to his human form once more.

"Don't be concerned, my friend. Jack assembles the Ultra Legion and says, "The day is ours.

"Now we just have to explain everything to Solomon," Steven fretted.

A little while later, G3 received news from Octus that they had successfully secured S.A.R.C.'s base, and Solomon had some advice for the team. He folds his arms in front of them and says, "So, you hacked G3 files, impersonated operatives, created a fake report on a recent change of shifts, and finally went on your own mission even when I told everyone not to."

Ben smiled sheepishly and nodded, "That's about the guess of it."

Unexpectedly, Solomon smiles. All of them were stunned by his words of appreciation, "Nice job." "G3 could be one of many who is going to give you missions, yet that doesn't mean you officially work for G3. You proved you were able to think on their own and that demonstrates character. You additionally supplied us with intel." He points to the flash drive. "All in all, everyone did good work here, today."

Kim gives him a cheek kiss. "Play the deck right, and there's going to be an after party."

Marco beams. "Hey, I might as well make us all some nachos."

As they make their way back to the Photon cruiser, Steven remarks, "Didn't know that you could cook, Marco."

Ilana turns to face her bodyguard while grinning at the crowd cheering everyone on. "Well?"

Lance sighs as a result of Octus's knowing prod to his arm. He sees her seem uncomfortable and says, "Okay, I admit, they did better than I imagined." "Something wrong?"

Ilana responds while rubbing her arm. What she revealed next shocked them: "The leader that got away, he carried a weapon that wasn't of G3." "It was Mutraddi."

The leader had to flee to a secret bunker once the base was overrun.

This was bad.

This might put a stop to plans even though all those soldiers were likely humans.

He removed his helmet in order to reveal himself to be a young man with white hair in order to report this.

He then turns on a holographic communicator. "Master, I'm afraid I've run into some unanticipated issues. Princess Ilana appears to have acquired herself new powerful allies that may show to be an obstacle in the long run. Our human puppets were taken captive and they got most of our technology."

"Ah, Baron. You did well to call me, my apprentice. That is a minor setback. The plans we have for her, planet Earth, and Galalunia are going to continue as planned. In the meanwhile, stay on Earth. I will get back to you later on and I promise you that nothing that the princess may do will prevent what I have in store."

"By your request, General Modulla."

Chapter 1 of season 1 is done. I hope to see you in the next chapter.
