Ben 10 Ultimate Hero EP 5: Rumble in the Ring
I don't own anything, except my OCs. The character of Nancy is from Vgn Golley's Ben and Van 10! So I do not own her at all and is just here for the story.
Intro:
A green glowing, steel pod was flying through space, hurtling towards Earth and crashing, making a huge green flash.
The camera zooms out from the glowing symbol on the Ultimatrix as Ben looks up close at it.
He then activates it while smirking at the camera, raising his hand high and slapping it down on the core.
The background turns all green as Ben morphs into Four Arms, who pumps his upper fists while cracking his lower ones with a smirk.
A white number appears on the left side, starting at 1.
"Ben 10!"
2: Heatblast ignites 2 fireballs in his hands.
"Ben 10!"
3: XLR8 zooms to the right.
4: Diamondhead swaps his right arm across as it turns into a blade.
"Ben 10!"
5: Cannonbolt uncurls and poses.
"Ben 10!"
"Ben 10!"
6: Upgrade stretches out of his puddle form.
7: Grey Matter hops off the 7 and lands into a crouch, giving a thumbs up and a smile.
"Ben 10!"
8: Water Hazard slides in on his water blasts and raises his fists.
"Ben 10!"
9: Wildvine extends his legs and stretches out his right fingers while holding seeds in his left one, chucking them offscreen.
10: Big Chill phases through the number and floats briefly before zooming near the camera.
"Ben 10!"
Big Chill's head turns back into Ben's as it rotates.
The camera zooms out to reveal Max and Gwen by his side.
Ben gave a low-five to his grandfather as Gwen crossed her arms and shook her head playfully with a smile.
The 2 then ran off-screen, making Ben run toward the camera with a determined look.
He then froze as his aliens appeared in heroic poses on each of the kids' sides, 5 on each side. Just as the title appears on a black background with green rays appearing from the title.
The Rust Bucket was shaking side to side as it sat in a parking lot at night. "Prepare for destruction at the hands of the queen, once again!" "Not this time!" Gwen and Ben yell out loud as what sounds like fighting is heard.
Ryu takes a defensive pose and flashes open his eyes. He then gets into his fighting stance as Chun-Li has her fist in her palm with a smile and assumes her position as both face each other on a busy street with crowds of people cheering. "FINAL ROUND! FIGHT!" The announcer called out and Ryu and Chun-Li battled, trading punches, kicks, and a lot of moves with each other. They then got into a grapple, struggling to overpower one another.
The camera zooms out to reveal that Ben and Gwen, Ryu and Chun-li respectively, are playing against each other on Gwen's Ultra Street Fighter 4 video game on Ben's PS4 that's hooked up to a wide computer screen on the table as Ben wanted to play his favorite game, Sumo Slammers, but lost to Gwen's choice, via a coin toss.
Ben and Gwen were both mashing the buttons and sticks on their controllers, trying to beat each other. Ben then decides to blow a raspberry in Gwen's face to gain an advantage. "GAH! Ben! That is disgusting!" "Hah! Advantage me!" "Never!" Gwen grinned as she laid a combo on Ben's character, knocking his bar down to just 5%. "Looks like the Queen of Street Fighter is about to celebrate her 50th win in a row!" "Not tonight, Your Highness!" Ben cries back.
Ryu blocked Chun-Li's Helicopter kick and counterattacks with a Hadoken at close range, knocking her back. "What?!" Gwen calls out in dismay, seeing that Ryu's special meter is full. Ben then unleashed a huge Hadoken that not only took out almost all of Chun-Li's health but also left her dazed. "Thanks for filling my Revenge gauge up. So, I can do this!" Entering a combo, Ryu rushed at Chun-Li with a powerful punch to her stomach, sending her up. "Metsu Shoryuken!" Ryu finished Chun-Li with a devastating rising uppercut, winning Ben the match as Ryu assumed his victory pose with the words 'Win' next to him.
"WHOO-OH!" "NOOOOO!" Gwen cries out in dismay as her cousin starts cheering that he kicked Gwen's butt, finally beating her at her own game as she drops her controller and sulks and cries out. "But it was going to be my 50th win. My 50th win!" Max, in his sleep clothes, sat down by his granddaughter and comforted her as she crosses her arms with a bummed look. "I understand how frustrating it is, seeing your win streak gone, pumpkin. But even champions lose now and then. Losing is like doing that one choir you dislike the most. You don't want to do it, but you still do it, because it's good for you and it's a part of life."
"Thanks, Grandpa. But I wish Ben didn't win! Now he will be bragging about it for weeks, I can feel it!" She gestured to her dancing cousin with a frown as the boy kept rubbing his victory over his know-it-all cousin. "Well, can you even call it a victory? It wasn't even real fighting." Max shrugs out.
Ben stopped in mid-cheer and turned to his grandfather, shocked at his words. "Grandpa! Are you saying my epic combo and ultra finisher didn't count!?" Max explains. "It was just virtual." Gwen then taunts Ben with a smug look as Max explains. "HA! You hear that?!" "You may be a simulated champ, Ben. But real fighting sports are different! They can't do the same fancy moves your characters from the game can do. Take wrestling for example; You must work hard and practice every day before you're ready! Heck, you'll be hard-pressed to win a match at your present size. Well, good night kids! I'm off to bed." He then heads to the back of the RV and lays down on one of the beds, falling asleep as he snores.
"Oh, now I feel all gloomy and deflated! 'Just a virtual champ!?'" Ben groans as he sits down at the table and sulks. Gwen looks at her cousin as she can't help but feel bad for him. "Come on, Ben! You're not just getting upset over a game, are you? How about I let you win the next one?" "It's not the game, Gwen. It's the principal! You always beat me, every time we played your game. I finally managed to beat someone that was originally thought to be unbeatable, then Grandpa had to bring me down."
As Ben sulks, Gwen thinks about it and realizes he was right! If she were in his shoes, and hopefully with clean socks, she would be bummed out if someone disgraced her hard-earned victory after so many losses. Gwen looks out the window and spots something of interest! "Hey, Ben! Check out the window!" The boy glanced out to spot a large sign that belonged to a large arena where the RV was parked nearby. "'Mid-West Wrestling Smackdown! Tonight only!' Whoa! A wrestling match?! Cool!"
"Come on! Let's check it out!" Gwen said as they both went out of the RV and ran up to the stadium. But just as they were heading towards the audience entrance, Ben stopped as he spotted a poster about the event as Gwen noticed. "Uhh... Earth to dweeb! Come in!" "Check it out!" Ben points at the poster as he reads off it. "'Tough enough to prove you're the best? Enter the ring and prove yourself a champion!' And look! it said all entries are welcome! Even the weird ones!" Ben grins out as Gwen states. "But it also said that no robotics or cybernetic implants are allowed, but that's not the point! What are you saying, Ben?" "I'm saying that if I win this thing, then I can prove to Grandpa that I am a real champion!"
"You're joking, right? Ben, look at those guys!" Gwen gestured to a few wrestlers who were entering the arena via the backdoor. "Those guys are like 4 times your size!" "Oh! I won't be wrestling like this! I'll be wrestling..." Ben grins as he slaps down on the glove and turns into Four Arms as he grins. "Like this!" Gwen is still unsure as she points out. "Ben... Are you sure they'll let you in a wrestling match as Four Arms?" "Yeah! The poster said all entries, including weird ones, are welcome! Including aliens!" Gwen ponders about. "I guess that's true... But it's not a victory if you win by cheating with superpowers. Forget it, Ben!" Gwen shook her head with a frown as the alien pouted. But just then, he glanced at the poster and noticed something else!
Four Arms smiles and gets an idea as he pretends to sulk away. "Oh, well! I understand! And to think, when I become a real champion, I was going to give you half the money as well." Gwen's ears perk up as she blinks. "Wait! What did you say? Money?" "Oh! You don't know? According to the last bit of the poster, the winner gets 10,000 dollars in addition to the belt!" Gwen looks and sees the prize money as she breathes out. "10 grand..." "But since you don't want me to enter..." Just as Four Arms shrugs and is about to walk off, only for Gwen to stop him as she exclaims. "Forget what I said! What are we waiting for?! Let's go sign up!" She runs off as the alien chuckles to himself. "Worked like a charm."
Later, inside the arena, Ben and Gwen manage to make their way in after signing Four Arms up for the event. They see a match between a normal blonde male wrestler and an 8-foot man who is a mixture of fat and muscle, like a sumo wrestler who wears a sleeveless jumpsuit with an 'I' on it. The blonde charges and hits his large gut, but the big guy doesn't flinch as he claps the sides of the smaller man's head, making him dazed as he falls and the bell rings. "NONE OF YOU WEAKLINGS CAN BUDGE THE IMMOVABLE OBJECT!"
"And it's business in the ring, tonight, as The Immovable Object takes down his 4th challenger, isn't that right, Steve?" A small man with blading brown hair and a mustache with glasses and wearing a classic tux tells his partner. A black-haired, grey jacket-wearing man with a gold bolo tie with a matching cowboy hat as they sat at a table, ringside. "Right you are, Bill, it looks like The Immovable Object is going to win the Mid-West Wrestling Smackdown at this rate."
Ben smirks out as he whispers. "We'll see about that." The boy walks off as the girl glances down at herself and remembers something as she went off somewhere as well. As the big wrestler is celebrating, something lands behind him and he glances back.
In the ring is a smirking Four Arms as he is ready to wrestle! "Who are you supposed to be?" The alien answers as he cracks his knuckles. "They call me, Four Arms!" The Immovable Object snarls as he charges and throws a punch, but the alien dodges and slams his fists down on him, picking him up and throwing him to the ropes as he bounces back and then smacks his upper right fist into him, sending him down for the counter as the referee counts. "One... Two... Three! The winner: Four-arm guy!" Four Arms had a big mouth smile as he pumped his arms in victory at a corner post. The crowd cheered at him.
"Whoa! Did you see that, Steve? The newcomer just took down The Immovable Object and in record time, too!" "That's right, Bill! I think we got ourselves a new contender for the championship spot." The cowboy smirks out at Four Arms as the alien leaves the ring and dusts his hands off. "Done and done! I showed Grandpa I'm a real winner!" He then glanced back at the referee. "Hey, I beat your champ! Where's my prize money and belt?" The man responds. "What are you talking about? That wasn't our champ! He was just another contender! You have to beat everyone to win this tournament! 10, maybe 15 matches at most." The alien is shocked at what he heard. "What?! Nobody said this was a tournament! That will take all night! It's already past my bedtime!"
"Well, talk to Mr. Grady. This is his show!" The man points out a cowboy-looking man, with brown hair, a mustache, and white clothes, approaches the alien with a woman on his arm. Just then, the symbol starts beeping as Four Arms notices. "Uh-oh!"
Seeing he was about to time out, he dashed as fast as he could as the man followed. "Hold on! I need to talk to you!" Four Arms slides around a corner and spots Gwen waving at him from a corner as he quickly tucks and rolls around the corner. Mr. Grady stops and looks around, just for a flash of red light to come from the corner as the man spots Gwen, now sporting a blue business suit with a white shirt underneath, matching skirt, and heels. She also lets her hair down from her ponytail to give her a natural look and has a cat pin on her jacket and small, matching business glasses. "Hey, kid. You've seen a big red guy? Four arms, four eyes?" "Yeah! He left for a while, but he'll be back." Gwen explains.
She then smirks as she adjusts her glasses with her index finger as they shined. "In fact, I'm his manager." The man chuckles, not caring that Gwen is too young to be a manager. "A formal young lady, aren't ya? H.E. Grady, event promoter." He offers Gwen his card, only to take it back as the kid shrugs it off. "Miss! Your wrestler's got headliner written all over him! Where did you find him?" Gwen smiles as she glances behind. Ben is barely shown as she smiles from his hiding spot. "He just came out of nowhere, one night."
The bell rings as Four Arms is back in the ring. "CHAIR!" A masked, green, and yellow wrestler cries out as he holds his weapon up, only for Four Arms to merely grab the object and lightly throw him out of the ring, unharmed but annoyed at how easily he lost! "Another easy victory for Four Arms!" "That's right, Bill! We may have a favorite to win this whole thing!" Gwen nods at another victory for her cousin.
The next round is on as Four Arms is up against a goth-like wrestler, who tries to blind him with shiny bracelets to reflect the lights. But the alien just knocks him down and yawns as he sits on the wrestler. "Thought... Light in the eyes... Would work..." The man groans out."
The 3rd match for the alien hero rang the bell as Four Arms was fighting a masked wrestler that had a mutant lobster claw for a left arm. As Four Arms starts feeling tired from the lack of sleep, the wrestler gets on his back and wraps his claw on the alien's thick neck, but Four Arms grunts as he grabs hold of the claw and pries it off. He then slams the guy down in front and punches him through the floor down below as both the alien and referee look down, declaring Four Arms the winner.
Another match took place as a Cyclops wrestler was thrown into a corner by a hulking mutant humanoid gator wrestler that is around the same height as Four Arms with white sharp teeth, red eyes, and wearing a sleeveless mordant yellow wrestler suit with black armbands, and gold large 'G' on a black belt. The being roars as he grabs and tosses his opponent out of the ring with a thud, pumping his arms in victory.
The bell rings again as a human with black sharp quills like a porcupine on his arms and his long black hair, wearing a sleeveless dull yellow and reddish tin suit with black and dull yellow boots and fingerless gloves charges at another wrestler, who has a vest with a snake pattern on it and white wraps on his hands, only to get kicked back. But the mutant looks up and saw the man coming from above, sharping and extending his quills and before the wrestler knew it, he was on a stretcher, being wheeled out with several quills stuck to his butt. "Ouch! That's got to hurt." Gwen cringes out as Ben nods from their view of the ring.
The bell rang once more as another wrestler, a black-skinned man with a red tank top, got smacked back as he glared up at the approaching wrestler. The wrestler is a large overweight/muscular guy who is wearing black pants and boots with a metal and leather cross sash that goes over his shoulders and connects to the yellow and grey armor on his shoulders. The sash has a square piece with the letters 'IK' In iron on it. He also has yellow metal gauntlets on his arms metal bands on his biceps, black fingerless gloves with bolts on the knuckles, and a steel headpiece.
The armored man gives a 'bring it on' gesture as the other wrestler charges. The big wrestler grabs him and plants his feet into the ground, swinging and throwing the man into a table and breaks and the winner slams his fists together as they clanged. "Who's next for a butt-kicking?!" He spoke out in a raspy voice. The other winners join him as the referee calls out. "The winners for this round: Gatorboy, Porcupine, and Iron Kyle!"
"It looks like we found the favorites to win the championship spot, Bill!" "Right, you are, Steve! It's going to be quite a sight for these 3 and Four Arms to mix it up in there! And you can bet they're excited for the match-up!" But Ben isn't worried as he leans against a wall with a smirk as Gwen studies them. "Be careful, Ben. These guys look tough." "Bring them on!"
Later, it was time for Four Arms to go up against Porcupine as they both glared at each other. "Let's get it on!" The referee cries out as he signals the start as the bell rings. "And there's the starting bell, Bill! This is going to be a heck of a clash!" "Right, you are, Steve! Alien vs. mutant! Who will come out on top, folks? Let's find out in the action!" Steve spoke out.
Both charged at each other as Four Arms knocked Porcupine into the ropes, only for him to bounce off and spin into a sharp ball, slamming into Four Arms, much like Sonic the Hedgehog as he stumbles back. Porcupine then lands on the rope and grabs onto his back, but the alien just flips forward and lands on the floor. He got up as Porcupine tried to, only to find himself stuck as his quills had implanted into the floor, making Four Arms place his foot on his chest for an easy win! "One! Two! Three!" The bell rings as the crowd cheers for Four Arms the alien takes a corner post and hears the crowd's cheer, basking in the glory as Gwen merely smirks at the alien.
"And it looks like the alien wins, Steve! He'll be advancing to the final round along with whoever wins the next Semi-Finals as well." "That is correct, Bill! So, stand tuned, everyone as we bring you more wrestling action, here at the Mid-West Wrestling Smackdown!" Steve spoke out from their table.
Ben and Gwen were chilling out in a dressing room as the boy kicked back and enjoyed the food at the buffet in front of him. Gwen had her mind somewhere. "This is sweet! Right, Gwen?" "Oh, sorry, Ben! I was just thinking about that last match. I think I saw Iron Kyle and Gatorboy wink at each other before Gatorboy won it." "So, you think Iron Kyle threw the match? Why?" "I don't know..." She shrugs as she ponders. Ben smirks out. "Still, I can get used to being a wrestling superstar." Gwen went out for a walk and to think.
Just then, as the tween girl left the room and started walking down the hall, she bumped into something big as she backed up and glanced up in surprise at Gatorboy before her. "Where's Four Arms?" "Uhh... Sorry. He's not giving autographs, now. But if you make an appointment, I'm sure I can fit you into his agenda." "You know what, girly? You have a smart mouth... But I have a bigger one!"
He roars as he tries to chomp Gwen. The girl screams as she runs away and her cousin peeks out from the door, only to get grabbed and dragged as well. As the mutant looks at them, Porcupine and Iron Kyle, who is sporting some damage after his fight with Gatorboy, walk in from another door. "What are you thinking?! Have all that cold blood affected your brain as well?!" Iron Kyle cries out as Porcupine adds out. "Yeah! They're just a couple of kids!" "Yeah... The kids who manage the guy who kicked your butt!" Gatorboy points at Porcupine to prove his point. "We scare them off. And maybe the big guy will take a dive..." "You better be right." Iron Kyle snarls at Gatorboy with crossed arms. "Because if you lose to that multi-limbed freak after I threw our match, I'm going to be seriously annoyed!" And so, the 3 went after the Tennyson kids.
Gatorboy bashes down the door to a changing room as he tears through the shower curtain, trying to find Ben and Gwen. Luckily, the kids sneak out of the room without him noticing and run down a hall as fast as they can, looking back, only to bump into something falling. Both kids gasped as Porcupine threw some quills as they both dodged to either side. Gwen gasped as Iron Kyle threw a fist that barely missed her as it cracked the floor and made a hole, as they were both wide-eyed. Just then, Gatorboy bursts out of a wall and snaps his jaws again, making both kids take off as the 3 wrestlers watch with smirks.
The 3 wrestlers go into another room. Some steam erupted from Iron Kyle's being as his jaw piece and head plate unfolded and retracted into the body as the torso opened, revealing it to be a robot suit as a person stepped out. The being is a 14-year-old curly redheaded teenager in a blue mechanic's suit with red boots, a tool belt, a rag in his back pocket, and oil stains on his legs and arms. "Look at this damage to the suit! Now I have to pound out all these dents! Did you have to go overboard, Jason?" The real Kyle asks Gatorboy A.K.A Jason as the big green wrestler scratches his head. "Sorry, Kyle. Guess I don't know my strength, sometimes."
"Well... Look at this." They all whipped their heads to see a bunch of males with trench coats, sunglasses, and black suits that covered their mouths in the room. "The freakshow's come to town. And they brought their little grease monkey as well." "Oh, it's you, guys." Kyle frowns as Porcupine questions. "What do you want?!" "Mr. Beck wants to make sure you understand what happens if you don't win." "That prize money is as good as ours! Don't worry!" The spikey mutant assures the black-wearing male. "Oh... I'm not worried. But you three should, if you disappoint Mr. Beck!" The 3 all look at each other in worriment at the threat and warning.
"Ladies and gentlemen! This championship match is scheduled for one fall, winner takes all! For the Ten-thousand-dollar grand prize! Entering the ring: Gatorboy!" From an entrance, smoke, and confetti are exposed as the mutant walks in, wearing a cloak with a hood, only to throw it back as he roars as the cameras flash. The same thing happens at the other entrance as Four Arms leaps out and lands with a thud, throwing his arms up as the crowd cheers. "And his opponent: The one and only, Four Arms!"
"This is it, Bill! The championship match we have been waiting all night for! 2 titans enter and one will come out victorious!" "That's right, Steve! Grab your popcorn and hold to your sodas and seats, ladies and gentlemen! Because it's showtime!" At the commenters spoke, Four Arms and Gatorboy entered the ring as Gwen stood by at ringside. The mutant and alien glared at each other as they approached the center. "You're a real tough guy when you're chasing after kids! Let's see how you do against me!" "I'm gonna drop you like a bag of dirt!" Gatorboy snarls out.
"Go to your corners and come out fighting at the bell!" The 2 did that as Gwen spoke to Four Arms. "This is it! The final match of the night! Take this big-jawed chump down and we get the cash and the belt! Go get him!" The alien nods to his cousin with a smirk, just as the bell rings, making the 2 charge out from the corners and grapple each other as they start wrestling. Four Arms flings Gatorboy into the ropes as the Gator mutant bounces them off and onto the floor as Four Arms pins him down. "Losing is not an option! I've got too much riding on this!" He then kicks the alien off and grapples him from behind, But Four Arms breaks out and grabs his arm, swinging him around until Gatorboy counters and throws him into a corner post, denting it.
"Four Arms, look out!" Gwen cries out as the alien turns to see the mutant charging, to which side steps as Gatorboy crashes headfirst into the post and falls back, disoriented from the impact. But just as Four Arms approached him, he felt something sharp hit his backside. "OW! Hey! 2 against one! That's not fair!" Four Arms cried out as he saw Porcupine enter the ring. Gwen spoke to the ringside commenters as she gestured to the ring. "He's right! That's cheating! He can't do that! It's not a fair fight!" "Not a fair fight? Said the girl who manages a guy who has 4 arms instead of 2." Bill covers his microphone with a frown and a raised eyebrow.
"Ohh..." Gwen blinks as Steve points out. "Besides, no one else is complaining, why should you?" "What they said." The referee states with crossed arms. "Are you going to wrestle or flap your lips?" Four Arms frowns at the man and pulls out the quills, only to feel dizzy as he stumbles around Gwen notices and gets a worried look. "Oh, no! Please tell me those quills weren't sleep-inducing!" Four Arms fell forward as he gazes up a chuckling Mr. Grady. "Hehe! Don't you just love show business?"
Four Arms got dragged back by the 2 and turned over as they both pinned him with their bodies. As the alien struggles, the ref starts counting. "One... Two..." "Oh, man!" "Double oh, man!" Gwen spoke out, agreeing with the alien. But Four Arms dug deep into his reserves and will and managed to free himself a bit, making the ref cry out. "No! No pin!" Both mutants got off and grabbed his arms, throwing the alien into the ropes as he bounced back as they planned to clothesline him. But Four Arms narrows his eyes and quickly ducks under them.
He then bounces off the ropes and tackles the 2 mutants pinning them as the ref quickly counts. "One... Two... Three!" "Yes!" Whoo-oh!" Gwen cheers out at Four Arms winning as the ref raises one of the alien's hands and calls out. "THE WINNER AND CHAMPION!" "And it's over, ladies and gentlemen! We have a new mid-western wrestling champion!" "That's right, Steve! The crimson, multi-limb titan has triumphed! Give it up, folks for our new champion: Four Arms!"
The alien smiles out in victory as he has proven that he is a real champion at last! But before he can celebrate even more, he notices the symbol is beeping and blinking red, signaling a timeout as he quickly speaks out. "Got to go! Give my belt and check to my manager!" He quickly leaps away, confusing the referee.
Ben and Gwen stood out of the arena with Mr. Grady as the man told the 2. "Good show, kids! Kinda wish your boy stuck around and took some bows, through." "He's sort of shy about that. It was a pleasure doing business with you." Gwen responds as she holds the belt. Ben holds the check with the prize money and they both walk away. "So, you happy now, Ben?" "Yep! Proved that I'm a real champion and made some sweet green! What are you going to do with your half of the money?" Gwen smiles in response. "I got a few ideas with it." "Hey, can you go on ahead, I just have to use the bathroom, real badly." "Not a problem." Gwen shrugs as she containers as the boy and takes care of business, exiting with a sigh as a toilet flush is heard. "Better..."
"But what are we going to do?!" The boy looks in the direction of the voice to see Gatorboy, Porcupine, and Kyle, now out of his suit, standing by him as the kid mumbles to himself. "Wait! Iron Kyle is just a guy in a robot suit?" Just then, a black car pulls up as the window rolls down and reveals the gangster from before. "So, you're freaks and losers. Boy, that's a nice combination." Gatorboy please to him. "Give us another chance! We'll get your money. Just don't hurt our mama!" "Hurt their mama? Those 2 are brothers?" Ben ponders.
Kyle begs the man. "Come on, leave my sister out of this! We'll get the money, we just need a little more time, that's all!" "You 3 knew what would happen if you didn't win! The boss is going to turn them into an end table!" The window rolls up as the car speeds away and Ben walks up as Porcupine notices. "What do you want?" "What was that all about?" Ben questions the 3.
Gatorboy explains their story. "We got mixed up with some gangsters and we owe them money. Or they'll kick us off our farm!" "But what does Kyle mean by his sister?" "Well, me and my sister, Nancy, were planning on opening up a garage shop, but we needed money to do that, so we borrowed a loan from the same gangsters. But my sister witnessed them doing really bad things and was going to tell the police. But they ambushed her and took her hostage! And said that if I didn't pay them back the loan, I would never see her again. Then I met these 2 and we realized we had a common goal." Kyle points at the mutant brothers. "So, when they told me about this wrestling tournament and the cash prize, I used my mechanical know-how to make this impressive robot wrestling suit to help them! I figured with the 3 of us competing, we have a better chance of winning the prize money!"
"But now, those guys are holding our mama and Kyle's sister as collateral damage! But since we lost the prize money, who knows what they're going to do to them?" Porcupine frowns at his brother. "You got a big mouth, you know that, Jason?!" "Shut up, Bradley!" Jason snarls back at Porcupine or rather Bradley. "Maybe I can help? I mean... maybe Four Arms and I can help?" Ben smiles. "But we don't know where they are holding them! They can be anywhere!" Porcupine states.
Ben then notices something on the street as he investigates, seeing sawdust on his fingers. "He said he turned them into an end table? Isn't there some kind of old lumber mill around here?" Kyle rubs his chin in thought. "Well... There is one place."
The group of 4 made it to an old abandoned lumber mill on the edge of town as they walked in. Jason noticed Kyle's suit. "Do you want to go in like that? It looks still damaged." "Don't worry," Kyle assures in his wrestler voice and tone. "I'll make do." "So, where's that Four Arms guy going to be here?" "He'll be here! He likes to make a grand entrance." Ben explains to Porcupine as he glances at the still-charging watch in his hand. "I hope..."
Just then, the lights turned on and they were briefly blinded. As they came, they spotted tons of thugs, swinging chains and holding blunt objects that looked painful. As they were surrounded and looked around, a voice called out. "Looking for someone? What a disappointment you boys turned out to be." A man with grey hair, a red and black suit, and a cane walks out of the shadows. The boy realizes that this must be Mr. Beck!
"I thought you were going to get me that money?" "They did! Here!" Ben snarls as he holds out the check as the man takes it. "Now let them go!" Ben glares as well. "Well, isn't this a pleasant surprise? And I have one of my own." He smirks as he gestures to a large slide where a brown-haired glasses woman, wearing a long pink sweater, and a long blue skirt is tied to a log. With her is a 14-year-old teen girl with red curly hair in a ponytail and wearing a grey tank top, black shorts, and black shoes. "It's Nancy! She's okay!" Iron Kyle sighs out as Porcupine exclaims. "There's mama!"
But Ben is confused about how their mom is human, yet her sons are mutants. "That's your mom?" Gatorboy shrugs and answers the kid. "The folks say we take after our Pa." The woman notices her sons and although she is glad to see them and they are okay, she is disappointed in them. "What did I tell you boys about getting messed up with the wrong folks?"
"Yes, Mama!" Both brothers cried out. "Really, Kyle? This is your idea of a rescue attempt?" The girl frowns as Iron Kyle shrugs as he calls out. "Give me a break, sis! It's the best I could come up with on the way here!" Mr. Beck chuckles out. "You didn't think I let all these witnesses live now, did you?" With a smirk, he pushes a button on a starter, activating the machine as the log the 2 is tied to starts sliding down slowly. The gangster boss then crushed the remote and disappeared into the shadows. "Finish them off!" In response, the thugs attacked the group as the 4 were ready to fight!
The group fights back as Ben uses a pipe as a weapon. Gatorboy punches a few and whacks one down with his tail as Porcupine delivers some high, agile kicks. Iron Kyle punches a few away and grabs 2 thugs, slamming them together as he blocks some attacks with his armored arms. Just then, a thug threw a chain around Gatorboy's mouth, pulling back as the mutant struggled. Porcupine dodges a crowbar from one thug as he counters with a diving kick. He then tries to help his brother but gets his legs tangled by another chain.
Iron Kyle noticed and ran to help, but got his left arm pulled back by another chain as he struggled. As he kept fighting off thugs with his free arm. Only for a bunch of thugs to pile on the trapped arm and yank on it, pulling as they managed to rip it right off. Sparks came from the stump as the robot-powered teen exclaimed. "Whoa! Not good!" He exclaims as he grabs a piece of wood and swings it with his remaining arm.
Ben swung his pipe as one thug backed away from the strike, only to sucker punch him and sent the boy on his back. Recovering, he can see the women getting closer to the sawblade as he sees the others struggling. He then notices the watch is ready to go as he pushes the button, dialing in Four Arms one more time with a smirk. "Time to call in the champ." Slapping down on it, he is engulfed in a bright flash of green light as Porcupine turns and sees where Ben is now Diamondhead, but the alien is not worried about getting the wrong alien.
"Who are you? Where's Four Arms?" The alien answers the mutant's question with a smirk. "Who needs Four Arms when you got Diamondhead!" He then dashes towards the saw as a couple of thugs stand in the way, but he makes his hands into hammers and bashes them away, getting on the machine and rushing to the log. He then turns his hands into claws, cuts the ropes away, and gets the 2 to safety as Gatorboy notices that his mother is safe now.
He then knocks the thugs off his being and bites the chain, breaking it as he goes to free his brother Iron Kyle notices Porcupine is in trouble and shoulder tackles the thugs away, helping him up as the 3 regroup. Mr. Beck groans out in annoyance at his henchmen's failure. "So hard to find decent thugs, these days! Guess I'll have to close down this freakshow, myself!" Only for Diamondhead to grab him out of nowhere and glare at him. "I don't think so!" He rears back and socks his fist into his jaw, sending the man flying as he crashes onto the ground The alien then slams his elbow on top of the man and he is out cold. "Winner and still champion!" The alien cries out.
Gatorboy asks out. "Where's Ben?" "Yeah, where did he go?" Iron Kyle asks as the crystal being smirks as the alien answers. "That kid is never around when you need him."
As the sun rose, the police crowded around the sawmill as they arrested and took away Mr. Beck and all his men. As Ben, the mechanic siblings, and the family watched the gangster being placed in a car and taken to prison, Gatorboy spoke to the kids. "Your wrestlers are amazing! How many guys do you manage?" The Tennyson kid smirks at himself and answers. "10, total!" The brothers then hug the woman as they apologize. "We're sorry, Ma. We should have never gotten involved with those guys! We thought we were doing the right thing."
"Well, at least you boys fest up and took responsibility for your actions." Mary smiles at her sons. "Thanks for saving me, Kyle. Even if you were a bit of a knucklehead!" Nancy smiles as she hugs and then gives a noggie to her brother as the boy chuckles out. "Thanks, Nancy! I'm sorry about suggesting that loan idea in the 1st place! If I had known this would happen, I never would have gone through it!" "Well, at least we learned our lesson about borrowing money from others." Nancy smiles at her brother. Porcupine exclaims as he reminds them of their dilemma. "Yeah! But we still don't have enough money to save our farm! We're still 5,000 dollars short!"
Ben can't help but feel sorry for them. He gets an idea as he takes out the check and holds it out "Here. You can split this with my client." Gatorboy takes it and is surprised at what it is. "The prize money? We can't take this, even if it is just half of it! Four Arms won it, fair and square." "Trust me, he can deal with just half of the money. Besides, you guys need it more than he does." Ben smiles as Porcupine speaks to him and hugs him, accidentally poking him with his quills. "I don't know what to say! Nobody's ever been this nice to us! Thanks!" "Ow! I had to make friends with a porcupine..."
Ben trudges back to their camper, tired from staying up all night, yawning as he opens the door. "I can't wait to sleep like the dead." Ben groans out. "Ben! What took you so long to go the bathroom?! I fell asleep waiting for you." Gwen asks as the boy just climbs into bed. "Long story, tell you later. I'm just going to sleep the rest of the day away..." Ben just falls asleep as he snores. Gwen is confused and spots the check he drops, only to see it is a new check with only half the prize money, made out to him and Four Arms from someone named Mrs. Fang. "What the?
"GOOD MORNING, KIDS!" "AAAHHHHHHH!" Both kids screamed as Ben fell out of bed and onto the floor in a heap. They both groan as they look up at their peppy grandfather. "We got a big day of fun ahead of us! Aren't you both glad you slept well, last night?" But both Ben and Gwen just have big, annoyed expressions as Ben moans out. "Oh, man... Hey, Gwen?" "Yeah?" The girl asks the boy states. "From now on, I'm just going to stick with being a virtual wrestling champ." "That's fine with me..." The 2 just collapses and snoozes on the floor.
