DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN BEN 10 OR AKAME GA KILL. THEY BELONG TO THEIR RIGHTFUL OWNERS. BEN 10 IS OWNED BY MAN OF ACTION AND AKAME GA KILL IS OWNED BY SQUARE ENIX.
Author's Note: I was in Writer's Block for quite some time, but now I have an idea as to how I can write for this chapter! Now this is going to be VERY long chapter. Like app 5,000 word chapter. It's great to be back on writing fanfictions again. Yep, nothing brings me joy but to start writing again lol. Anyway, if you guys enjoyed this chapter, please leave them down on the comment box below! Other than that, enjoy the fic!
OH! And I heard that Ultimate ga Kill was mentioned in a wikia somewhere. I tried looking for it but I couldn't find it. If one can pull up the link in my DM's? Thanks! :)
嘘を殺してください。真実を求めて
LV: Kill the Lie; Seek the Truth
THEN...
BEFORE HIS DEPARTURE with Mine and Tatsumi, Ben had some thoughts. The Green Changeling had been with Night Raid for all these weeks. Sure, the first time he met them, he was met by suspicion, and rightfully so. They were in a war. Both he and the organization did not trust each other. Night Raid had every reason to be afraid of Ben since his abilities were outlandish. Not to mention that he fought and WON both fights between Leone and Akame as well as some if not all, save for Najenda, of Night Raid.
Though, the longer he was with them, the more he was willing to open up. He was afraid that if he exposed more of his powers, they could use it against him and kill him. Therefore nobody, not even Akame, was willing to take that chance.
Akame, at first wanted knowledge as to how the Ultimatrix worked. At first it was more for preparation reasons, a contingency plan mostly much more like The Art of War. However, Ben proved time and time again that he was a team player. Willing to sacrifice himself for anyone in need, not just her team. And when he was in a tight spot, he always had a transformation handy to counter it.
When someone like Lubbock wanted a rematch, or like...well mostly Leone, she would warn them at first before they got their asses kicked. Sure Ben was boastful, and at times more like an egotistical dick, however when the chips are down and the mission was at hand or when someone was in danger, he was the first person to jump in the front line to protect those in need.
Akame was not the person in need of protection at all. She could defend herself ably with gusto. She was a professionally trained killer, a child-soldier. But it was more than relaxing knowing that she didn't have to worry about a member of her team dying on her again...and again...and again.
Sheele was a different story. She gave Ben the benefit of the doubt quite early, sensing that he wasn't a bad guy but moreso a scared young man who was away from his family. She saw it in his eyes. She gave him a chance, and when she did, she did not look back. She was the first one to befriend and in turn...fall in love with him. They were inseparable. If anything happened to Ben, she would be in kill mode. Didn't matter who was in her way, she would kill anyone for revenge.
In Ben's case, no one would argue that id anything happened to her, that thin veil of not needing to kill would snap, turning the young hero into a remorseless killer, making someone like Esdeath pale...if she could feel something like fear.
If any harm came his way, he has the Ultimatrix, he has all the aliens he would ever need to defend himself; however, Sheele would act as a soldier to his war. Defending him against anyone. It even got the point that no one dared messed with Ben with her around. She was his shadow, an extension of his soul. Albeit, Ben was far more powerful than her, Sheele, much like her red-eyed comrade, was far more skilled in the art of martial arts...and killing. Though whenever Ben was in danger, and his Ultimatrix was in the red, Sheele would be the first one to go ahead and take out the threat...permanently.
Lubbock was pretty with Ben, not much to be said since they barely hung out that much. Although, he wanted a rematch with Ben since that incident in the woods.
Mine was...well Mine. Since they first met, she wanted to kill Ben, much like any other scumbag in the Empire. She thought her Pumpkin would be enough to destroy the Changeling...little did she knew it didn't work. After that encounter she didn't want to fight him knowing the outcome. When asked, she would decline but explain away that even if she was in atight spot an dpumpkin increased in power, the Ultimatrix would turn him into an alien creature that could counter her Pumpkin blast like he did with Chromastone. Though, there was a shot in the back of her mind that she could try to fight him, but as of now, she was in Fangirl mode.
Tatsumi started to warm up to Ben, even after what he could do. Like Akame, he held Ben in the highest regards once he learned that he had time manipulating powers.
Leone was still salty. She wanted to fight Ben until she won, funny enough she kinda reminded him of himself when he was younger. What made her stood out was that, aside from her attire which would make Ben blush, if he wanted to admit it or not, she reminded him of Kevin...like a lot. Teasing him and whatnot, basically treating him like he was Lubbock. Poor woman, all she wanted was a fair fight that was in her favor.
Susanoo and Najenda had no opinion...well...maybe not Susanoo, but Najenda...she's just sitting on top of a pile of wins.
"Had Ben had been there with Night Raid in its early days, during when Akame was still loyal to the Empire, how long would the war last? The fight between Akame and Ben was cartoonishly fast with Ben winning narrowly every time. Hint...narrowly since at every fight, Akame learns. Although, it could be that Akame was holding back. And if that was the case, could this mean that Ben was holding back as well? If a major fight between those two broke out, it would be difficult to determine who would have won, but based off Ben's arsenal, he would win in a VERY narrow margin, although it could be a possibility that Akame could cut him down and take the watch for herself. It would depend on who would draw first.
Ben was in his room putting on his jacket, his thoughts just racing around a derby. He took a deep breath as he reached for the knob, only for it to turn. He would expect it to be Sheele but...no.
It was Akame, only this time, no longer wearing her standard, trademark stoic glare, but moreso a small grin. Ben backed up a bit.
"Akame?"
"Hello, Ben. I'm here to wish you well," she said.
Ben took a deep breath, nervous as all hell; Akame caught this.
"Ben?" she asked, "Something the matter?"
"Akame," Ben began; "I don't think I was straight forward with you since I came here."
Akame closed the door.
"Go on," Akame said.
"I've been with you all for...where's Sheele?" Ben thought.
"Oh...she's taking a shower. She said she wanted to give you something."
"Yeah," Ben said, "Akame, I'm not from this world. And if I mean, not from this world...I mean NOT from this dimension. You see, I've been here for so long, and I have to tell you the truth, I was scared...I was terrified that if I said something, even about this Ultimatrix, I would be used as a weapon...or tortured...something. I don't know. But I'm ready to open up. You and Night Raid earned my trust," Ben said.
"I understand," Akame said, "We didn't give you a reason to trust us, and it was a matter of time before you were comfortable enough to tell us that you were from Bellwood," Akame said.
"Yeah, I..." Ben stopped. "Excuse me?"
"Paradox wiped the memories of those prior to your Cousin and your best friend being here. The details are vague, but yeah. I know where you're from. I also know that your middle name is Kirby, you are on the verge of graduating from your local school. Also Kevin's funny," Akame chuckled. "Oh, and you forgot this." Akame gave Ben the Ultimatrix Security Keys containing a certain transformation.
"Ben was speechless. Akame was CLOSE TO HIM? HER?! He thought it would have been Sheele. "Give these to Mine and Tatsumi," she said; Ben still shocked that Akame retained these memories...AND ALSO KNOWING ABOUT THAT ONE TRANSFORMATION that he did not want to tell.
"You...you know about...it?" Ben asked.
"I understand why you didn't want us knowing about that particular transformation," Akame said. "Other than that thats all I know. It's kinda fuzzy, but I do know that one of your villains is a squid. If I was in your universe, I would end him...quickly."
Ben was frozen, what kind of sick prank that Professor Paradox is playing? He retained Akame's memories? He would have guessed that she was told about Vilgax.
~If she knows about him? Does that mean Sheele does too?~ Ben thought.
"Hehe," Sheele giggled.
"Okay, who are you and what have you done with Akame?" Ben asked.
Akame composed herself; you need not worry, Ben. I believe that you will protect both Mine and Tatsumi and bring them back alive. I hold no doubt that you will protect them, you can do anything" she kissed the tip of his nose before she turned to the door.
When the door opened, Sheele walked right in, slightly confused why Akame would be there. A slight hint of jealousy was boiling but she let it go.
"Hey Ben," Sheele entered, carrying a bag of food for Ben.
"I'm confused," Ben said.
"That it?" Sheele chuckled, "Normally, I'm the giggly one."
"Pretty much yeah," Ben said.
"I packed some sandwiches for you, Mine, and Tatsumi...well mainly Tatsumi since he needs to bulk up," she whispered.
"Say, Sheele," Ben asked. Sheele gave Ben her attention. "Do you recall anything?"
"Hm," Sheele thought, "Aside that Vilgax need to die?"
"Yep, she knows...almost virtually everything," Ben paled.
"Oh and Ben, after all of this is over, and the threat of the Empire is done...do you think that I...I mean..."
"You want to live on my world?"
"I want to experience it! It sounds so fun! I want to be your partner in crime! I want to be a hero...you know...useful!" Sheele said.
"Sheele, you are useful," Ben said, kissing her forehead. "You just forget sometimes, and that's fine. As for the question...IT WOULD BE SO MUCH FUN IF YOU WERE!"
"RIGHT! And when I get my hands on that Vilgax guy...I'mma go UGH.." she snorted, "Ahh! I be like, you see this man! That guy is my boyfriend and if you mess with him, I will kill you! Vilgax would think twice before he even has the chance to reach your hometown."
The fact of Sheele being there with him in Bellwood would be surreal, if not rewarding. Ben had several thoughts as to how this would go down. The good thing was that he did not tell her about a particular reported to whom he hated...although he wanted to knowing how Sheele would act.
And that's the nicest person on the team.
If Akame was with him, hell if the entirety of Night Raid was in his Earth, his life would have been EASIER! Now, tnhey would cross a line that even Ben would not cross.
Like if Ultimate Kevin were to break loose, there is no doubt that Night Raid would not hold back...and he highly doubt that Kevin, especially Ultimate Kevin would have an easier time.
Nope.
He would have a harder time...especially if it were Sheele or Akame hunting him down.
Sheele, he could outlast for a minute.
Akame...or the rest of Night Raid...he could just say his prayers goodnight. But seeing his feelings for the purple woman, he could see himself with her...a nice family...and a kid. Ben answered with a simple nod.
Sheele was overwhelmed with joy, jumping around, screaming, laughing, and dancing like an absolute fool. A happy fool. She had never been this overjoyed in her life
Outside of Ben's door was Akame listening in; inside her was a tad bit of jealousy, but in the same vein, she was happy that Sheele was happy. And if anyone deserves to be happy was her. Though, she did feel that Ben had been hangign out with her a little too much, so she thought that maybe, with the blessing of Najenda, that Ben should hang out with Mine and Tatsumi a little more since now Ben decided to open up in his own volition rather than from outside forces.
"Wish we met earlier in better circumstances, Ben," she said; "I'm happy that Sheele is happy, and that you made her happy. Blessings to you." Akame said, feeling a little warm inside.
PRESENT...
Ben sat across Mine and Tatsumi as he told the story as to what led from that morning between him and Sheele.
"You promised Sheele that you can take her to your world after everything is over?" Mine asked.
"And you're from another world?" Tatsumi asked.
"And you made Akame smile?" Mine exlaimed.
This caught Tatsumi's attention, "Wait...YOU MADE AKAME SMILE...AND LAUGH?" both asked in unison.
Ben scratched the back of his head, "Yeahhhh...I don't know how that happened."
"Ben! Are you an idiot? Akame...LIKES YOU!" Mine said.
Ben squinted, "Bullshit."
"No shit! She's right!" Tatsumi said, "Haven't you wondered that when me, Lubbock, Chelsea, Mine, Su, and the Boss comes near you, she's standard...but with you she blushes?"
"Or whenever a stranger crosses your path, her hand is on her hilt of her Murasame?"
"Like a protective sister?"
"Would a sister kiss you, Ben?" Tatsumi asked.
"Yeah. Sisters kiss."
"In the lips...often..." Mine made a point, "Also at times she'd bend down a little bit not to make it too obvious."
"With Sheele she's obvious," Tatsumi said.
"Wait...wait...wait...so Akame...likes me...how?" Ben asked.
"I don't know," Mine said, "Maybe when you live in a dark world, all you know is darkness. And when there's a light at the other end of the tunnel, well..."
"You pretty much proved time and time again that you are willing to fight and survive," Tatsumi said.
"And you saved me a couple of times," Mine pointed out.
"Thing is, you're not a Night Raider,"Tatsumi said, "And you're not someone from the Imperial Capital. You're...a hero."
Ben was touched. Yeah, he saved dozens of people back in his world, but they would forget about him in about a week, sell his aliens like merch and make money out of him. Crime would get crafitier and craftier; sure law enforcement would have his back, but then there were those who would always see him as a menace. It wasn't until he became famous, and when that fame got to his head, he became more obnoxious than he was previous.
But things were...different here.
"When he saves someone here, it meant a lot...like A LOT. Ben transforming into aliens would scare a lot of people, but him using those powers for good than for personal gain...that was new.
And for Night Raid to see a man like that up close was a privilege.
Ben, slowly but recognizing that based off his technology, his powers, he understood why they were cautious. A man with the powers of 1 million aliens would scare anyone off.
And for good reason.
On top of that, Ben managed to score big with two women. One to which he expressed his love for, and the other one to which he was COMPLETELY aloof.
He loved Sheele, but he likes Akame...as a friend. But hearing that Akame likes him...likes him was...strange.
Akame wasn't the person to seduce anyone. He wasn't aware that she was trying to seduce him. Again...awkward, lest not forget the time to which he was told of a particular woman of status assaulting the poor girl.
So it made sense that Ben to not even expect Akame to behave like that. It flew over his head and into the clouds.
Tatsumi was told by Akame to not tell Ben but...Ben needed to know.
"That's...wow..." Ben froze.
"You sound kinda..."
"Kinda weird...yes. That two women liking me...yes. That's a fight. That's war. That's not something...okay look. Once everythig is done, I'll...I'll have a word with Akame," he said, gulping at the thought that Akame might slice him into ribbons worst case scenerio.
"Second thought, I think she's smart enough to realize that."
"Why are you worried for? You beat her...twice," Tatsumi said.
"Yeah...and she figured out how to transform me back," Ben said.
Tatsumi and Mine paled, "Oh you're fucked."
"Yeah," Ben agreed.
"But hey, you'll get used it buddy!" Tatsumi said.
"Thanks for the reassurance," Ben said with a dark tone.
"No problem," he said. "So, about that world!"
Mine pushed him out of the way, "Can we go with you too? Sheele can't be the only one be the only one to receive such an invitation. Plus, if its as awesome as Sheele told me, I would want to move there at the first opportunity!"
"You two?" Ben asked.
"Pwwwweeeeaaaasssseeeee?" Tatsumi and Mine pushed together, leaning close to Ben.
Ben sighed, "Okay."
"Yay!" Mine said.
"But the laws in my world are a lot different than the laws here," Ben warned.
"Laws...Smaws! We don't need no laws!"
"And you don't need your mouth,"
Suddenly, something was off.
Ben's eyes squint. His nose picked up something; "Hey guys, you smell that?"
Mine got up. "Yeah. IT'S GUNPOWDER!"
ABOVE THE CLIFF
The crazed lunatic with grade A military weapons for arms wore a malicious smirk across her face.
"Justice...VOLLEY!" Seryu launched a hellstorm of missiles and explosives at their way.
Every missile, every bullet, crashed and destroyed everything in their path. It was like raining meteors during the extinction of the dinosaurs. Hell was l literally raining down upon the valley.
Stones were torched.
Buildings were splashed, engulfed in the hugs of hellfire. After her explosive episode, Korro showed a confused Seryu the City Detector showing that Night Raidn was still alive.
"THEY SURVIVED THAT...HE SURVIVED THAT? BEN 10 NEEDS TO DIE! BEN DIE!" Seryu screamed, launching a secondary round.
"DIE! DIE! DIE! DIE! DIE! DIE! DIE YOU WORTHLESS WASTE OF HUMAN CUM! YOU SCUMBAG! YOU TEENAGED MUTANT NINJA COCKROACH! DIE SATAN! DIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEE! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Seryu screamed as her veins popped from her face, and through her skin, like an overloaded battery. Her brain vessles popped. Normally, this would cause a normal person a deadly wave of a brain aneurism.
But this was Seryu.
Normal was not part of her biological programming.
AT THE VALLEY
Tatsumi, now in the form of Incursio carried Mine along his back as Ben, now transformed into Fasttrack followed suit.
"Looks like they are after us!" Tatsumi said.
"You think!" Fasttrack yelled.
"Right, If you ask me, they're trying to keep us away from the city," Mine said, "Might have struck a nerve."
Suddenly, another round of missiles was heading their way.
"Here comes another round! Ben...er...Fasttrack, Tatsumi! Look out!"
Fasttrack looked around and saw a dozen more missiles.
"Oh man!"
Incusrio and Fasttrack narrowly dodged every missile they could, drifitng from block to block, column to column in this massive canyon. At the dead end, they kept going.
Insurio leaped up while Ben ran upwards with no problem narrowly missing the missiles.
As Incursio glided down, Fasttrack fell to the ground like a bowling ball dropped from the Hoover Dam...nice but rough.
"Good landing," Incursio teased.
"Ahh...shut up," Fasttrack said, getting up, engulfed in green light again, turning him back to Ben.
Mine sat her silver briefcase down and started to put together her Pumpkin.
The attacks have stopped, looks like we are out of range," Incursio said, "I took a good look at the shooter. It's definitely Seryu Ubiquitous."
"Oh no...that broad?" Ben sighed.
Mine laughed, "Hahahahahaha! Looks like she's still salty that you beat her several times!" Mine said, "That's right you self-righteous bitch! Go ahead and hate, because we got Ben Tennyson here to kick your ass! Uh huh!"
Ben and Incursio had sweat drops going down the back of their heads. Ben was flattered, but now was not the great time. Seryu was dangerous...and VERY unhinged.
The very thought of Night Raid having a person like Ben in their payroll was unconcionable. Also on top of that, her ego was bruised. VERY bruised.
As Mine continued to brag. Incurio tried to cover her mouth, but she licked it.
"YOU WANT TO COME OVER HERE! BEN CAN TRANSFORM INTO ANYTHING AND THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT! YA MAD! STAY MAD BITCH!" She laughed like a maniac.
"Oh great, I made a monster," Ben said.
"No, you just made her more of a bitch than she is already."
Suddenly...
A strange woman who wore her clothes similar to those of a shrine maiden's, with a loose kimono shirt exposing her cleavage held by a single breast guard on her right breast. She had black hair and a scar on her face across her nose and under her right eye. She oddly wore armor plating on her forearms.
She sliced Ben and Mine from Tatsumi.
"It's the Fourth Raksasha Demon!" Mine informed.
"The Fourth what now? What about demons?" Ben asked, thoroughly confused.
"Suzuka," Suzuka introduced herself; "But that doesn't matter now since you all are finna be dead."
"I'm gonna take her out with..."
"RATH!" Mine begged; "Please be Rath! Please! I want this bitch to have a taste of some tiger hands!"
"Instead of Rath! How about you face me!" Tatsumi screamed in anger, getting really tired hearing about Ben. He likes the guy, but how many times does he have to hear about him? How many times?
"Tatsumi wait!"
"Ben, get Mine out of here! I'll take care of her! Go!" Tatsumi exclaimed, throwing every punch he could, only for them to be redirected by the nigh-breasted Suzuka.
"There's been a change of plans. You get to fight me instead!"
"Oh how brave! Normally, I would want to kill this Ben guy, but you are far more interesting! Alright, how about you be the first to die before him, how does that sound?" she chuckled.
With that little quip, Tatsumi through a hell of a lot of his strength at her, pushing both him and Suzuka off the cliff, flying to the other side of the city ruins.
"Tatsumi!" Mine screamed, before she regained her composure.
"Stupid," she said under her breath.
"Mine, I think we got bigger problems," Ben told, getting Mine's attention.
"Anyhting in that watch to help us?" Mine asked.
"Let's just say I have a plan," Ben said. "Those two fight in a pair, so they won't be easy to beat. I'll take down White Clifford, you hold off Seryu. Once I incapacitate Korro, I have a little present for our little psychopath," Ben said, playing with his Ultimatrix.
Down below the canyon, stood a pissed off Seryu. She was nto proud. She was not happy. She was pissed. Like PISSED. Her eyes was fixed on the cliff. She already hated Night Raid. That was not an opinion. It wasn;t a thought, hell it wasn't even a fact. It was a religious fact! IT WAS STONE COLD, GOD TAKING A PISS IN THE AMAZON FACT! She hated Night Raid to brittle, burning bones.
But the one person she hated more than Night Raid...
...was Benjamin Kirby Tennyson.
Adding both him and Night Raid together was like adding Bleach with Cleaning Ammonia on an active stove.
It was war.
AN: Hello guys of fanfiction land. This was a long one. My first long fanfiction chapter from a long while. I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter like I have had writing it. Now, I do have this one question though, who do you think would adapt quicker if any other member of Night Raid were to ove to Bellwood?
Also, would you guys like to read the sequel to this? If so let me know.
Also, I've noticed that funny enough, from a lot of the comments, especially from this one Reddit post...
"Well, he would fight the Empire, but he would never have the heart to kill any of his enemies. I did read a couple crossover fanfics where that was the case. He was powerful enough to beat Esdeath, but could never kill her in either. Also, Sheele falls head over heels for him in Ultimate ga Kill, while Seryu is even crazier and desires Ben dead probably even more than Vilgax. Seriously, she is MUCH more loco Ultimate ga Kill than she is in canon. Even sexually harassed Wave and Akame, and even killed Honest and the Emperor himself, creating a scene that even made Esdeath want to puke. And when you disgust ESDEATH of all people with your "work", you know something's wrong with you." – from Reddit
This was a hilarious and true statement. My friends read it, almost 900+ people read it and it is sited that Seryu has been well...upgraded.
Like what would happen if Ultimate ga Kill Seryu was in Akame ga Kill canon? But replace Ben with Tatsumi. I think that would be funny lol.
Also, I did not know that this fanfiction was this popular. I was away from this fanfiction for so long that I did not even se it. I had to read the WHOLE thing for me to even get a grasp to what I left off. Took some time, came back to writing and voila. I swear, everyone here has been so nice and supportive and when things seem off, you all are not afraid to share your thoughts and criticisms and I love that. I like honest reviews. They make writers like me stronger. So I appreciate it. Again sorry for the 1.5 year lateness y'all.
Anyway, I hope you all enjoyed this fic as much as I did. Until next time!
PEACE!
