A/N: Thanks for the positive reviews, and I'll add WildVine, but I won't spoil any additional aliens except Cannonbolt since this is his debut Chapter. Btw, I've been thinking of making a sequel from this story, I don't wanna spoil it, but it'll be good. I think you guys can guess what episode is up next. Yep, Framed. I've been designing Kevin's hybrid form while I was on my break. He'll only be using nine aliens if i gave him Alien X, we all know it'll be impossible to beat. I have been redesigning the aliens if that wasn't obvious and i plan to keep doing it too.

Chapter 11: The Big Tick


After the mess, the Tennyson family have dealt with regarding the whole Phil situation they decided they needed a break. They left South Dakota and went back to California to visit Yellowstone National Park. The RV stopped inside the campers space before throwing open the RV's door.

Max sniffed the air proudly, "Ah, nothing says getting closer to nature than this beautiful National Park."

"It really is beautiful, grandpa." Gwen smiled looking over the ridge into the mountain side with the forest down below, "I wish some people would come to appreciate it." She gazed at her cousin who had a pair of headphones wrapped around his neck and fiddling with the Omnitrix.

Max also turned around to find his grandson fiddling with the device, "Ben would you give it a rest, already. Can't you focus on anything aside from the watch."

Ben took a glance at them, "I mean I can, but there's so much we don't know about it. Like how many aliens are actually inside this thing. Master control, so I don't keep timing out."

Gwen rolled her eyes, "Let me see it." She walked over to him as he held out his left wrist, "What do I do now??"

"Twist the faceplate. Like this." He twisted it a few times before she nodded and started twisting it.

"I see why it's so interesting." She giggled before the Omnitrix's faceplate turned yellow, "Uh oh."

"What's happening?" A new hologram was seen hovering above the faceplate, "Whoa, a new alien."

"You're welcome." Gwen huffed.

Ben rolled his eyes before gazing at the floating hologram, "Let's see what you can do?" He slammed his hand onto the faceplate becoming engulfed in an emerald light. Max and Gwen shielded their eyes as the newest transformation began.

Ben felt himself bloating up like a balloon. He became shorter and hunched over with a long tail sprouting from his back both being covered in yellow armor plating. The top of his head was protected in the armor plating. His arms were longer and covered in yellow armor and his feet turned into short and stubby claws also with his knees being covered in the yellow armor plates, with his teeth turning into fangs. He is mostly white, while various parts of his body were black. His legs were completely black. With his eyes shining emerald green. The Omnitrix badge appeared in the middle of his chest.

After the emerald light died down, he resembled a large armorfied mole. He gazed at himself as he stumbled about, "What the hell?" He lifted his large arms to see his large tail which he soon tripped over.

"Some alien." Gwen snickered.

"Interesting, choice of an alien, Benjamin." Max also snickered as Ben's newest alien tried getting back to his feet.

As the newest alien tries to get back to his feet, a large meteor soon struck the forest reducing the trees into rubble. Gwen and Max turn to the crash sight in confusion and wonder.

"What's that?" Gwen asked.

"No idea. Let's go check it out." Max replies as Gwen produces a mana platform for her and Max. They lower themselves towards the crashsight.

Ben soon made it back to his stubby feet as he placed his large arms onto the ground and found his center of gravity, "Hey! How am I gonna get down there?!" He yelled, "What a useless alien. What can I even do?" He leaned against the railing before launching off the cliffside.

"Not exactly what I had in mind!" He yelled as he got closer and closer to the ground when a pink mana shield caught him right as he nearly hit the ground. He gazed up to see Gwen with her hand outstretched, "Thanks Gwen."

"You know, you should really figure out what he can do." She soon dropped the mana shield causing him to facevault into the dirt.

Ben soon stands back up before brushing the dirt off his face. He followed after his grandpa and cousin on all fours with his tail dragging behind him. The three soon make it to the crash sight. To find a large meteor or so it seems.

"What is it?" Ben asks abit curious.

"Seems to be a large meteor." Max examines placing a hand on it when suddenly cracks start appearing all over it.

"Seems like you broke it, grandpa." Gwen replied as it soon caved in on itself to reveal a large reddish parasitic alien, "I don't think it's meteor."

As the three gazed in wonder a large ship soon descends a small quarter away. When three lifeforms on platforms emerge. One being tall, pale-skinned alien with six tentacle-like feet. The second one is shorter with six arms and yellow skin. And the final alien is of medium height, has four eyestalks, and carries a large ax.

"Hello earthlings, we are the Great Beings Worshippers." The tall worshipper explained, "This is the Great One!"

"Great One? You mean this oversized parasite?" Ben referred to the giant tick.

"Don't you dare disrespect the Great One!" The tall one glared.

Ben rolled his eyes, "By Great One you mean a fat parasitic alien. Then sure."

"Ah, an Arburian Pelarota, what a rare sight considering the Great One destoyed your homeworld about a week ago." The short one responded curtly.

"Arburian Pelarota?" Ben gazes over to Max

"Must be that alien's species." He responds.

"Wait, did you just say this giant parasite destoyed it's homeworld?" Ben yelled glaring at the aliens on platforms.

"Indeed, the Great One has destroyed many planets and now it's Earth's turn to crumble under the Great One's wrath!" The tall one responded.

"The Great One will destroy your wretched planet from the inside out and there's nothing you'll be able to do about it!" The shorter one answered.

Ben's small emerald eyes glared dangerously at them, "Over my dead body you whacked up lunatics!" He then charged forward, his heavy bipedal form launched at them. He soon felt himself curling up, he brought his legs up as the armor plating was brought outward. His large arms folded over his legs with the large yellow plating being brought outward once again. His large tail was moved upward covering up his body. He seemed to resemble a large yellow armorfied ball.

The large ball launched through the air at the three when the medium alien stepped forward grabbing his axe and batting the armorfied ball away. The rotund alien went flying into the forest. Max and Gwen went wide eyed as Ben had went flying into the forest bouncing off of a variety of objects. Until he heard something, it was loud and familiar, in a bright flash of red light, Ben landed on his head, "Note to self: land before you time out."

"You alright, Ben?" Max asks helping Ben to his feet.

"Yeah." He answers then turns back to where the parasite and his worshippers were only to see Yellowstone being poisoned. They gazed around in wonder as the life of Yellowstone National Park was decaying infront of their very eyes.

"What's happening?" Gwen asked.

"They're killing our planet. We need to stop them." Ben answered.

"How can we stop them?" Max gazes around to the barren wasteland that was once Yellowstone National Park.

"By killing that giant tick." Ben replies when suddenly the ground starts shaking, "Did you feel that?" He asks as another tremor occurs as giant gray tentacles erupt from the ground.

Gwen summons up a small dose of mana and slices through the tentacles, "Guys, we're gonna need to do something quick!" She sliced through two more tentacles before seeing them regenerate.

The tentacles soon wrapped around Max's body, "Anytime now, Ben!" Soon Gwen's body was wrapped inside the tentacles and finally Ben's. The tentacles started dragging there bodies into the ground.

"Yeah, kinda working on it." Ben replied as he quickly started spinning through his playlist, "Alright, new game. It's called freeze tag!" He slams his hand onto the faceplate becoming engulfed in an emerald light.

Ben's skin turned a violet, dark blue, and black color. He grew an additional third emerald eye above his nose. His hands turned into claws and his feet into talons with only three toes; two in the front and one in the back. His entire body was wrapped in an old raggedy dark blue cloak and hood with light blue spot patterns scattered around which then unfurrow and become his wings and antenna. His shoulders, chest, and thighs grew armor plating on them. The Omnitrix badge appeared in the middle of his chest, "BIG CHILL!" His eerily ghostly voice erupted. His intangible body phased through the various tendrals wrapped around his body, "Alright, everyone freeze!"

He let out a strong icy breath attack freezing the various tentacles nearby. He grabbed hold of Gwen and Max before taking lift off when one of the tentacles launched upwards and wrapped itself around Max's leg.

"Let. Me. Go!" He kicked as he was soon released by the appendage. The Necrofriggian flew upwards the trio soon got a real good look at what was once Yellowstone National Park.

"It's horrible." Gwen muttered.

"We need to hurry up and stop it before it destroys the planet. Ben, any ideas?" Max asked the Necrofriggian.

"None at the moment, but before we take on the alien parasite, we need to defeat those three kiss asses." Big Chill reminded.

"Good point." Gwen agreed. They were flying over the Old Faithful geyser which resembled a giant zit that looked like it was about to burst, "Guys, look at the geyser." Gwen pointed out as the three gazed at the once beautiful sight into a horrendous monstrosity.

"Brothers, the Great One, wants us to witness his power." The yellow worshipper replied as the three started baring witness to the Great One's 'power'.

It started producing large gloops of rancid acid, scorching the very ground, "Huzzah, Huzzah, HUZZAH!" The three aliens chanted before Big Chill came flying through them.

"COMING THROUGH!" Big Chill announces as he places Max and Gwen near the Great One as he flew back up to defeat the worshippers, "Remember me?"

"What is it?" The tall one questions.

"Seems to be a giant moth alien." The yellow responds.

"The names Big Chill and I'm here to take you out!" He inhaled deeply before a large breath of ice shot from his mouth when the three worshippers dodged the attack.

The medium alien grabbed his axe and raced toward the Necrofriggian. As he got closer, he raised his axe getting ready to decapitate him, when he smirked. He turned intangible as the axe passed harmlessly through his body. The medium alien went wide eyed as the axe was frozen solid.

He reverted back to normal as he turned towards him, "Ready for round three, dickhead." He raised his hand as a blade of ice extended from his hand. He gripped the blades tightly before glaring at the medium alien, "Bring it."

The medium alien glared before twirling his axe before the platform raced toward the Necrofriggian who also charged forward. The two clashed repeatedly, the axe was chipping away on Big Chill's ice blades. The medium alien raised his axe over his head and brought it down onto him, Big Chill raised his ice blades above his head and caught the axe before it could touch his head.

He gritted his fanged teeth before releasing a large breath of ice and freezing the medium alien's feet. The medium alien tried to move his feet when he roundhouse kicked him in the jaw sending him and the platform flying backwards. The taller and yellow alien started racing after Big Chill who flew downwards. He went racing down to the old Faithful that looked to be a giant zit. He inhaled deeply and another breath of ice hit the large zit as Big Chill turned intangible and phased straight through the frozen geyser.

The two aliens screamed in fear as they crashed straight onto the giant frozen geyser. Big Chill came out the ground to see the two unconscious when the medium alien shattered the ice trapping his feet. Big Chill gazed around to see the medium alien coming back around with his ax raised.

Big Chill flew towards him and turned intangible again, phasing through his body. As he appeared on the other side of him, Big Chill punched with all his might, sending the medium alien careering to the ground, "Big Chill 3, Stupid Alien Worshippers 0." His badge started flashing red as he landed on the platform. In a flash of red light, Ben was standing on the platform.

"Okay, not one of my best ideas." Ben replied trying to control the platform, "It's just like riding a hoverboard. All about control." He smirked before flying back to the large planet sucking tick.

He landed below caughting sight of his cousin and grandpa. He hopped off the platform, "Anything?"

"No, I did my best to destroy it, but I couldnt inflict any damage to it." Gwen answered.

"What do you think, Ben?" Max asked.

"Let's see if any of my aliens can put a dent in it's armor." Ben answered twisiting up the faceplate as a hologram appeared, "It's Hero Time!" He slammed his hand onto the faceplate becoming engulfed in an emerald light.

From the plants below vines shot outwards wrapping around his body tightly. His feet soon took the appearance as roots, his hands up to his forearm were changed into a fiery orange yellowish color, his face was wrapped tightly in the vines as his eyes turned pure green, with his hair taking on the appearance of fire, orange in the back, yellow in the middle and red in the front. Orange yellowish leaves littered his shoulders with thorns from the vines covering his shoulders. The Omnitrix's badge was wrapped tightly in the vines on his chest, "SWAMPFIRE!" The Methanosian exclaimed as the vines around his mouth enclosed around it.

SwampFire blasted intense flames from his hands, watching the attack, hit the giant ticks body. He noticed it was doing any harm which pushed him to increase the intensity of the flames. SwampFire started panting hard after giving it his all when the badge started flashing red and soon reverted back to normal.

Ben glared, "1 down, 10 to go." He soon activated the Omnitrix again and slammed his hand onto the faceplate again becoming engulfed in an emerald light.

Ben felt like he was deevolving, he started growing blue fur all over his body. He blinked his eyes as he grew four extra eyes, his ears pointed out, and his teeth grew into fangs with a lone line running directly from his lower lip running downwards unto his chin. The bones in his two arms split into four arms with three fingers one each hand. A tail sprouted out from his butt. Fur covered his forearms, his body, his neck, and face, as two black circular bands were wrapped around all four arms. The green and black hourglass badge appeared on his chest, "SPIDERMONKEY!" He screeched loudly.

SpiderMonkey glared as he soon launched a dozen haymakers into the giant tick while grabbing abunch of debris and launching it at the large and growing parasite. After ten minutes, he timed out. Ben growled loudly before activating the Omnitrix once again.

Ben's body started resembling a dark red and black large crab. His hands turned into pincers with white bands wrapped around them. He grew six crab like legs with a large head that opened up to reveal his large brain. On both shoulders were two metallic circular bolts. Under his large emerald eyes were two smaller eyes with a large mouth revealing his teeth. On his body was a grey waistband with the Omnitrix badge reappearing there, "BRAINSTORM!" The Cerebrocrustacean exclaimed.

"Hm, ehanced intelligence, let's see if I'll be able to defeat you. A parasitic alien, I'm sure a few bolts of my bio-electrokinesis, should do the trick!" His large crab head soon opened revealing his large pink brain with silver bolts on them. Lightning soon danced across his brain when massive bolts of electricity shot outwards hitting the tick repeatedly.

BrainStorm kept up the heat, increasing the damage of his electricity when he noticed his attacks weren't scratching the parasite, "Seems, none of my attacks are are inflicting any damage to you." BrainStorm replied as he tried another approach using his pinchers to try and claw at the beast. After another ten minutes of useless trying, BrainStorm timed out, reverting back to normal.

Ben yelled at the tick, "YOU'RE GOING DOWN!" He activated the Omnitrix once again and slammed his hand onto the faceplate becoming engulfed in an emerald light.

Ben started shrinking and was soon engulfed in a white containment suit. A pair of headphones rested ontop of his head, with a grey visor with his emerald eyes shining behind them. The headphones were connected to a backpack on his back with the number 10 on it. On his legs resembled cassette tapes. On his forearms were grey bands with green sound holes in them. A large black line took up most of his face went down his face and towards his neck where it stopped. His fingers were black, as a black line encircled his knee and the bottom of his feet. On his shoulders were two black lines as they raced down his back and resumed around his waist and formed a giant black circle in the middle of his chest where his Omnitrix badge resided, "ECHO ECHO!" The Sonorosian exclaimed as five clones hopped out of his body.

"Okay boys, give it everything you've got!" The Prime Echo stated before they surrounded the tick and gave it a loud sonic scream. Seeing the tick shudder from the attack, which made them scream even louder and harder, but the tick wasn't budging. Soon Echo Echo duplicated himself to having sixty clones all attacking it together. Ten minutes later, Echo Echo timed out, reverting back to normal.

"I will destroy you!" Ben glares activating the Omnitrix again and slamming his hand onto the faceplate becoming engulfed in an emerald light.

Ben started transforming into a manta ray, his head, upper chest, arms, and backside were a dark shade of crimson red. His chest and patagia were white with three gills on both sides of his ribs, with his feet being black while having three toes; two in the front and one in the back. On his hands were also three fingers while also being black. He had lightning bolts on his back side race over his shoulders towards the center of his chest where the crimson red and white clashed. On the sides of his face grew out two yellow large horns, while on his head were two large yellow horns protuding outwards. His eyes were emerald green, while his lips were outlined yellow like his horns. The Omnitrix badge appeared in the middle of his chest where the lightning bolts met, "JETRAY!" The Aerophibian exclaimed shooting into the sky.

JetRay swooped down from the sky shooting neuroshock blasts from his eyes and tail, but none of his attacks seemed to damage it. He increased the neuroshock blasts to try and crack it's shell. He glared angrily at it and tried throwing some neuroshock slashes which bounced off its shell. JetRay landed on the ground before timing out and reverting back to normal.

Ben gritted his teeth and activated the Omnitrix once again, slamming his hand onto the faceplate becoming engulfed in an emerald light.

Ben felt his body dissolving, his flesh, bones, everything dissolved into an emerald green puddle of slime. A small grey device with green outlining the sides, resembling a UFO flew downwards picking up the humanoid pile of goo. His eyes were outlined black racing down his neck. On his chest floating around was his green and black hourglass badge, but it had three pegs one of the top and two on the sides located at the bottom, "GOOP!" The Polymorph exclaimed.

Goop tried throwing his acidic slime to try and melt the alien parasites body which resulted in the slime sliding off it's body leaving slight burns on its body. Goop kept hurling larger balls of slime which had the same effect. He groaned angrily when his badge started flashing red and reverted back to normal.

"This is getting real personal!" He glared before activating the Omnitrix once again and slamming his hand onto the faceplate becoming engulfed in an emerald light.

Ben's skin started turning scaly and dark shade of brown. He grew till he was twelve feet tall, with a long tail swinging behind him. His teeth grew into fangs, he grew two large separate fangs on the side of his head, as he grew claws on the ends of his nubbed feet. He grew armor plating on his arms, shoulders, and chest, with silver spikes running from the top of his head down his back, some appeared on both his forearms, and two more appeared on the back of his legs. The green and black hourglass badge appeared on his armorfied chest, "HUMUNGOUSAUR!" The Vaxasaurian exclaimed angrily.

Humungousaur roared loudly before punching at it repeatedly and seeing nothing change. He gritted his teeth in anger before his armor grew denser, stegosaurus plates grew from the top of his head running down his back. He grew till he was also sixty feet tall. He made sure to stop holding back his strength and let the giant tick have it. The ground started cracking from the amount of strength Humungousaur was displaying. Sending both of them deeper into the Earth. Humungousaur gritted his teeth as his badge started flashing red and soon reverted back to normal.

Ben was going crazy he had four aliens left and there was one he didn't wanna use, "If I need to use him, I'll do it, but I've still got three other guys." He soon activated the Omnitrix once again and slammed his hand onto the faceplate becoming engulfed in an emerald light.

Ben's skin turned a violet, dark blue, and black color. He grew an additional third emerald eye above his nose. His hands turned into claws and his feet into talons with only three toes; two in the front and one in the back. His entire body was wrapped in an old raggedy dark blue cloak and hood with light blue spot patterns scattered around which then unfurrow and become his wings and antenna. His shoulders, chest, and thighs grew armor plating on them. The Omnitrix badge appeared in the middle of his chest, "BIG CHILL!" His eerily ghostly voice erupted.

The Necrofriggian launched into the air and blasted the tick with a breath of ice temporarily freezing it. He sighed in relief before seeing the ice start shattering. He glared and immediately started refreezing the tick before it could release itself. Big Chill flew around it's body constantly trying to keep the alien frozen, but he was running low on fumes. He collasped onto the ground and soon timed out.

Ben didn't say anything as he activated the Omnitrix for the ninth time. He slammed his hand onto the faceplate becoming engulfed in an emerald light.

Ben's body started hardening into magenta colored crystal. The left side of his arm and part of his body turned a red color while his right arm remained magenta while his right hand was red. Two large pink crystals were located on his back, a medium sized crystal layed on his right shoulder, and a smaller crystal below his right shoulder. His left arm was litered in crystals, four around his shoulder and three going down his forearm. Two were located on his chest, while two layed on his feet. Ben's face closed in on itself as it was covered in the crystals, his eyes were emerald. His face was magenta with a mix pink under his chin and above his eyes. A lone crystal took it's place on the top of his head, but it's color was different from the rest on his body, it was red like his body. The green and black hourglass badge appeared on his chest with a small red crystal and pink crystal attached to the badge, "CHROMASTONE!" The Cystalsapien alien exclaimed.

ChromaStone glared at the Tick before his body shined a bright rainbow color and blasted the tick with ultraviolet rays. Max and Gwen shielded their eyes as the UV rays seemed to get brighter and brighter and more powerful. ChromaStone gave it everything he had before he finally collasped. He gazed at the tick to see some of its shell cracked from the density of the UV Rays.

"FINALLY! Some progress!" He yelled before his badge started flashing red and soon reverted back to normal.

"Ben, you've only got two aliens left, maybe it's time to call a quits." Gwen advised.

"Gwen's right Ben, we're not gonna win."

"That's enough!" The taller alien yelled as he, the yellow alien, and the medium alien descended from the sky, "You've done too much damage already!"

"I haven't done enough." Ben glared.

"The Great One is entering the final phase before it destroys your planet." The yellow one responded as they then took a look around them. The landscape is drying out to a barren wasteland.

The taller alien throws large yellow sponges at them, "Get to cleaning."

"What?" Ben glared.

"It requires cleaning before destroying your planet. NOW GO!" The yellow one explains before demanding them to clean the giant tick.

"Yeah, no way in hell, I'm cleaning this disgusting parasite-" Ben was soon silenced by Max elbowing him in the gut, "Ow!"

"We'll get cleaning right away!" Max replies picking up a sponge before whispering to his grandkids, "Play along." Gwen soon nods her head and grabs a sponge while Ben isn't too happy about cleaning this thing.

As the three clean the Great One, it begins to shed, revealing a yellow shell underneath its reddish exterior. Several large, purple pores also push their way out of the shell, spitting acid at random intervals.

"This is so gross." Gwen replies puking in her mouth.

"I thought my feet looked bad after not showering." Ben also almost puked.

"Stop, standing around talking! Keep cleaning!" The taller alien yelled.

"You're so lucky, I can't go hero on your ass." Ben glared at the alien worshippers. As they kept cleaning the large tick its outer shell starts coming off and landing near them. Ben and Gwen hop backwards to avoid being flattened by the shell.

The tick was getting bigger and time was running out, Gwen glances at Ben, "Use the new alien."

"Aside from becoming a large balll, I haven't found anything useful about him." Ben dodged another piece of the ticks shell.

"JUST DO IT!" She screamed.

"Sheesh, thats a word for that it's called please." He activates the Omnitrix once again, spinning the dial, before finding the newer aliens hologram, "Sure, hope Gwen's sure about this." He slammed his hand onto the faceplate becoming engulfed in an emerald light.

Ben felt himself bloating up like a balloon. He became shorter and hunched over with a long tail sprouting from his back both being covered in yellow armor plating. The top of his head was protected in the armor plating. His arms were longer and covered in yellow armor and his feet turned into short and stubby claws also with his knees being covered in the yellow armor plates, with his teeth turning into fangs. He is mostly white, while various parts of his body were black. His legs were completely black. With his eyes shining emerald green. The Omnitrix badge appeared in the middle of his chest.

The Arburian Pelarota slammed his large hands into the ground, cracking it. The three worshippers catch sight of the aliens return and order to attack him. The three soon start chasing after Gwen and Max shooting purple energy beams. Gwen throws up a mana shield to deflect the blasts when rancid pus starts leaking from the tick. Gwen keeps the shield up as the pus soon starts melting through her mana shield. Max gazes around and grabs two of the cracked shells tossing one to Gwen.

The duo soon use the shells to protect themselves from the great one's pus which leaks onto the ground dissolving it into rubble. When the worshippers soon fly around shooting at them. Gwen and Max soon run away with Gwen throwing mana disc's in retaliation. The worshippers soon start cutting off their retreat by destroying the ground all around them.

Ben glared in anger, "That's it, you clowns are going down!" Ben roared loudly before slamming on the ground and curling into a giant armored ball and racing towards them.

"Seems theres no where left to run." The taller alien smirked in victory, "Any final words?"

Gwen glanced behind him before smirking herself, "Yeah. Duck."

The leader raised an eyebrow, "Duck?" When Ben slammed straight into him from behind knocking the alien off his platform sending him flying. Ben went flying by and soon bounced back colliding with the shorter yellow alien.

Ben bounced off the ground as the medium sized alien slashed at Gwen and Max, but didn't hit them. But hit the rock they were standing on. Ben came flying back towards them, he uncurled himself caught his family before recurling himself landing a little ways away.

"Guess you found a better use for him." Gwen replied as Ben set them down.

"You can say that." Ben laughed sheepishly.

"Alright, we gotta find a way to destroy the tick." Max replied.

"Wait, what are you gonna call him?" Gwen glanced over to Ben.

"Hm, I liked Cannonball, but that seems kinda stupid." Ben muttered, "Name's can wait, but grandpa's right. I don't know how I'm gonna destroy it." Ben thought before being blasted in the back. Gwen and Max turned around to find the three worshippers floating above them.

"You three are starting to become a major pain in our asses. Surrender, your planets about to be destroyed. There's nothing you can do to stop it!" The taller alien glared.

"Aslong as I'm still breathing I'll never stop fighting!" Ben yelled before they started shooting at him again, this time Ben used the armor plates on his elbows and deflected the attacks. When the medium alien lifted up his axe and sent a shockwave at him which bounced off of his armor plates and back at them, "Suck on that!"

The giant Tick started shooting out that rancid pus again this time it landed on Ben. He crumbled into the ground. Gwen and Max soon raced away as the ground started collasping beneth their feet. The three worshippers soon jumped on there platforms and hovered above the tick as it entered its final phase.

"GREAT ONE! GREAT ONE! GREAT ONE! GREAT ONE! GREAT ONE! GREAT ONE! GREAT ONE! GREAT ONE!" The worshippers chanted before Max hopped onto the taller one's platform and whacked him with the shell as Gwen blasted the medium sized off and soon roundhouse kicked the last one.

Gwen and Max watched as Ben rolled around the rancid pus and tried attacking the outer shell when he bounced off of it and into the crumbled ground. He started rubbing his head, "If it's impenetrable from the outside, just gotta destroy it from the inside." He rolled himself into a ball and was off. He rolled off a rock highrise and into one of its pores, "LET'S ROCK AND ROLL!"

Once inside, Ben soon starts bouncing around it's entrails like a pinball. He soon punctures its heart, bursts straight through its ribs, reeking havoc on the great ones internal organs. Outside the outer shell is destroyed as the three worshippers cry in horror as there God is being destroyed. Back inside the beasts stomach, Ben triggers a reversal of it's gravitational wave. Once all of it's life support is cut off, the rest of the monster's shell sheds off and it finally explodes leaving nothing but blue goop raining down.

Gwen and Max shield themselves of the blue goop, while cheering, "Way to go, Ben!" Max yelled happily.

The three worshippers watched in horror as their God was killed before there very eyes. They soon turn to Ben as he was covered in the blue goop. They lowered themselves infront of him and bowed.

"All hail the destroyer of the Great One!" The leader chanted which the two also chanted.

"Some loyalty they have." Gwen mutters when the badge on Ben's chest starts flashing red and in a bright red light he reverts back to normal.

"Gah, get this stuff off me." He almost hurled.

"What happened to the destroyer of the great one?" The shorter alien responded confused.

"Sorry to burst your bubble, but he's gone. So get lost." Max replied as they sighed.

"This won't be the last time we meet earthlings." The taller alien reminded before joining his coharts on their ship and flying away.

Ben soon gazed around as the used to be barren wasteland started returning back to normal, "Ah, maybe a little fresh air, would be good for me."

"And a shower." Gwen added as Ben looked at himself covered in the ticks blue goop before almost vomiting.

"Aside from cleaning myself, I think my new alien deserves a name." Ben replies eagerly.

"Did you come up with any?" Max asks.

"Yup, Meet CANNONBOLT! Pretty catchy right?" Ben smirks widely.

"Hm, Cannonbolt? I like it." Gwen smiles.

"Good name, Ben. Let's get back to the RV, cuz you need a good shower." Max and Gwen soon laugh as the trio journey back to the RV to stop infront of it.

The color in Max's face soon lost color as he dropped to the ground in shock. Gwen was holding her ribs from laughing too hard. The RV was covered in the tick's blue goop.

Ben sighed in annoyance at what this meant "Ah, man."


To Be Continued...

A/N: Hope you enjoyed this chapter. I personally did. Found it quite hilarious when Ben was using every single alien in his arsenal to kill the tick. I enjoyed it very much and now I'm gonna start writing the next chapter aka FRAMED. Stay Tuned for more.
