??? Pov

I stood with two others before Vilgax, ruler of Vilgaxia. I was auditioning for a mission, but it was no ordinary mission. The victor would be sent to Earth to find the girl who held the Omnitrix, bring her back, and then help keep watch over her. It was a very strange mission, but Vilgax promised a healthy reward.

It came my turn and I got on my hoverboard and began attacking the robots. I was quick, brute, and finished in record time, I then got back in line with the other two.

Vilgax appeared on a screen, "Very impressive, you are all hired, whoever succeeds will get the reward." he wheeze. I looked between my competitors and scoffed. I headed for my pod and headed to Earth, I would have the girl in no time, that or my name isn't Tetrax.

Jen pov

"I can't believe I agreed to this," Grandpa said as he tied a rope for the training course. I smiled at Grandpa while I stretched, "Me either." I said happily. I had finally convinced Grandpa to let me use the Omnitrix, and believe me, it was not easy to work. The [only reason he agreed was that I promised to only use it if necessary. However, I still might get a little personal use out of it.

"Ok, get ready Jen," Grandpa said and I nodded. I stood in the center of the training course, I and Grandpa shared a nod. Grandpa pulled a lever and tires came flying at me, I quickly dove, pulled up my screen, and transformed into Diamondhead. I turned my arm into a blade and sliced an incoming barrel. Grandpa pulled a rope and multiple targets sprung up, I backflipped behind them and sliced all of them

Grandpa pulled another lever and a tire got me by surprise. I was knocked off my feet and my bandana fell from my neck. I grumbled and backflipped and shot giant shards from the ground piercing the tire.

"That's enough." Grandpa suddenly said and I turned to him confused. "We just started," I said Grandpa narrowed his eyes at me, and I sighed in defeat. I returned to my human form and grabbed my bandana before boarding the RV. We started driving and I glared at Grandpa from the table, he never told me.

"Jen, why are you upset?" I looked at Bleep who was hovering beside me. "Because Grandpa won't chill out, he panics over every little thing I do involving the Omnitrix," I said low enough so Grandpa wouldn't hear. "We are calling it the Omnitrix now?" Gwen asked, sometimes I forgot she was here.

"Yea, that's its name," I said, and could see Grandpa stiffen. Gwen rolled her eyes, I did the same and pulled up my screen. I materialized my headphones and turned on a fairy tale book reading, it served as perfect background noise. I started working on one of my other builds, this one was a crossbow that shot electric energy arrows. I smiled and worked in peace, that is until the RV began to break down.

'This can't be good.' I thought and put everything away. Grandpa pulled into a nearby town, "Huh, Slaterville, built when silver was discovered but went bust when the mines dried up." I started knowing we wouldn't get any help here. "Know it all." I heard Gwen mutter "What did I say on the first night of the summer trip?" I asked crossing my arms with a glare.

Gwen began to pout and I walked away to explore the old town. Despite my love for advanced builds and stuff, I enjoy the old-fashioned stuff as well. I walked into an old mine and picked up a rusted tool, "Hehe, this is a perfect souvenir." I said and digitized the item into my souvenir folder. I smiled and walked deeper into the mine and looked at everything.

I admired everything, but the ground suddenly began to shake. The ground began to rise as something tunneled under and around me. "Wow!" I jumped back as something broke through to the surface. I didn't hesitate and transformed into Ghostfreak, the alien turned around to face me. "You're coming with me." he hissed and snapped his claws at me.

"Not happening, Crab Cake," I said and disappeared. I floated up to the ceiling and changed back. Quickly magnetizing my gloves to the ceiling I watched the alien in curiosity. He twisted his head around, he had no clue what happened. I quietly giggled and kept watching, but then something shot past my head.

"AHH!?!" I jumped from the ceiling and another alien appeared. He spoke in a strange language, but just like with the Kraken, I could understand him. "Give me the girl!" he hissed and Crab Cake shot a laser at him. The shot hit him and I quickly sorted an attack of my own. "Let go you human rat, I have a reward to claim," he said and I smirked at him.

"Not in a million years!" I yelled and jabbed him with my Taser. The alien hissed and howled in pain before falling to the ground. "Well, you saved me some trouble." Crab Cake grabbed me by the hair, but he just cut it and I fell to the ground. I quickly tasered him and ran out to Gwen and Grandpa.

I ran as fast as I could and when the RV came into view I smiled. "Sometimes I think I should have destroyed her with everything else." my running slowed to a stop ad I heard Grandpa speak. Gwen stood with her arms crossed, "Why did you save her? Why did you bring her back after he took her? Things would be easier without her." she said. I felt my heart rate pick up and my eyes filled with tears. "she was just a baby I... couldn't." Grandpa's eyes caught mine, Gwen looked and pressed her arms to her sides.

"Wh-What are you talking about?" my voice came out shaky, and my body began to tremble. "We aren't talking about you," Gwen said I didn't need to scan her to know she was lying. Granda stepped closer and I backed away, I shook my head and ran away from the two. I heard Gwen call for me to stop, but that just made me run even faster.

Tears started streaming down my face, I transformed into XLR8 and left the town not looking back. What were they talking about, why did it involve me, did Aunt Ver hide something too? So many questions filled my head, and so many emotions filled my body, it was too much.

I followed the girl on my overboard, she had become so distressed. I sighed and flew down, I grabbed the back of her body suit and lifted her off the ground, "Hey, let me go!" she cried. The pulled up some type of screen and pressed a button, she returned to her human state and fell to the ground.

'Hmm, this is gonna be a little more difficult than I thought.' I thought and flew after her. I followed her into a mine, but lost sight of her, wearing mostly black assisted her greatly. I sighed and let the silence settle, I was then blessed with the sound of quiet sniffles and whimpers. I followed the sound and found the target, she was curled in on herself crying, and I could understand why.

I removed my mask and kneeled before the child, s looked up at me with big eyes. Her eyes held so much emotion, it was anger, sadness, confusion, and much more. I used my thumb to wipe the tears from her eyes, then picked her up in my arms. She was so small, it made it hard to believe this girl had the Omnitrix. I got back on my overboard, and the ground began to shake.

I ground in annoyance as Metal Mouth and Crab Cake showed up. I looked back at the two and scowled, "Go," I whispered to the girl. "What?" she asked in a voice lower than my whisper. "Go, I will handle these two and find you again, n do as I say," I whispered more sternly this time.

The girl jumped from my arms and pulled up her screen. A overboard materialized and she flew away. I turned back to the other and cracked my knuckles, this was gonna hurt them greatly.

I watched from the shadows as the bounty hunters fought, while Jen left. Great I've already spent so much time on this planet, now I had to spend even more. I groaned in annoyance and left the scene, the things I do for Azmuth.
