Hey, guys! Welcome to my first ever Ben 10 story...well actually that's a lie since I have already made a Ben 10 story, but this will be my first OC Ben 10 Reboot story. And since it's a reboot of Ben 10, I decided why not create a reboot version of my OC Vanessa from my Alien Force Unite story!

Now, if your a fan of Alien Force Unite and worried that I will neglect it. Don't worry because I am still planning on continuing that story, it's just that I wanted to create a new story with a different version of Vanessa.

Anyway, before we begin, I decided to change some of Ben's alien designs. Now, not all of them because there are some reboot designs that I did like. Here's how Ben's aliens would look like.

1. Four Arms will have his reboot design and voice actor, but his shirt will be colored green/black.

2. Heatblast will have his Omniverse design and voice actor.

3. XLR8 will have his reboot design and voice actor, but he will have a visor like his original counterpart, and his turtleneck shirt will have a green stripe instead of a blue one.

4. Diamondhead will have his reboot design and voice actor, but his uniform will have a green stripe instead of a yellow one.

5. Cannonbolt will have his original series design and voice actor.

6. Upgrade will have his reboot design, but just like the original, Upgrade will have Ben's voice, albeit it will sound robotic.

7. Grey Matter will have his original series design and voice actor, except his jumpsuit will be colored green/black.

8. Overflow will have his reboot design and voice actor since I actually prefer Overflow over Water Hazard.

9. Wildvine will have his reboot design and voice actor.

10. Stinkfly will have his original series look and voice actor, but his uniform will be colored green/black.

That's about it...anyway, I don't own anything, except for my OC'S.

NOW LET'S GET ON WITH THE STORY

{Intro}

A green glowing steel pod was flying across the Milky Way Galaxy as it reached towards Earth, and crashes down as a huge green flash occurred. Once the flash dies down, we see the glowing symbols of the Biomnitrix as the camera zoom out, and we see Ben and Vanessa looking at their new devices in wonder as the kids then glanced at each other before smirking as they activated their gauntlets and two cores popped out as Ben and Vanessa raised their hands in the sky dramatically before slamming them down on their individual Biomnitrix's.

The area around them turned green as Ben slowly morphed into Four Arms and pumped his fists into the air in victory while Vanessa transformed into Coldphase as she opened up her wings and flew in the air as she generated an ice mace in her hand, and white number 1 appeared beside them.

Ben and Van 10!

Ben then quick-changed into Heatblast as he manifested a fiery cyclone around him, but lost control of it as the tornado began to grow. Vanessa reacted quickly and transformed into Blitz as she runs around the fire tornado and snuffs out the infernal hurricane, but accidentally cancel out Heatblast's fire in the process as well. The magma-being gave his friend a deadpanned look as Vanessa gave him a sheepish grin, and a white number 2 appeared beside them.

Ben and Van 10!

Huffing in annoyance, Heatblast glared at the Citrakayah until an idea popped into his head as Ben grins mischievously. Quick-changing into XLR8, the Kineceleran puts on his visor as he began running circles around Blitz. Vanessa yelped as the fast winds from XlR8 forced her to fall to the ground, and XLR8 stopped running as he laughed at her immaturely. Vanessa growls at him in anger as she quick-changed into Split and duplicated herself up to 30. XLR8 yelped in surprise as Split and her clones dogpiled on the surprised Kineceleran, and a white number of a 3 appeared beside them.

Ben and Van 10!

Split and her clones smirked at each other in victory until they felt something rumbling below them as a flash of green light appeared, and they were all thrown into the air by large crystal spikes. Diamondhead rose up from the ground as he raised his hands and encased each clone in small crystal cages as they struggled to free themselves. Diamondhead crossed his arms smugly before blinking in shock as all the Split's merged with each other and transformed into Vortex. The cloud-like alien turned herself into the air as she easily escaped from Diamondhead's crystal trap, and a white number 4 appeared beside them.

Ben and Van 10!

Not giving up the fight just yet, Ben quick-changed into Cannonbolt as he curled up into a ball and rolled over to Vortex, who stood perfectly still as she transformed into Fairytail and used her magic to conjure a slide in front of Cannonbolt. Ben's eyes widen from deep inside his shell as he went up the slide, and flew in the air as he crashed against the green background, and groans as a white number of a 5 appeared beside them.

Ben and Van 10!

Fairytail giggled under her breath as Cannonbolt glared at her and transformed into Upgrade as he turns into a puddle and slithered his way towards an unsuspecting Fairytail. Without giving her time to react, the Galvanic Mechamorph used his elasticity to wrap around her body as Fairytail struggled to escape from his grasp. Vanessa grunted before quick-changing into Tricetaurus as she bursts out of Upgrade's hold and roars as a white number of a 6 appeared beside them.

Ben and Van 10!

Upgrade rubs his head as a large shadow fell on top of him and gulps as he saw Tricetaurus glaring down at him as she raised her foot to smash him and dropped it down. Luckily, Ben transformed into Grey Matter just in time as he dodged her and jumped up to her leg as he begins crawling all across her body. Tricetaurus tried to smack him, but Ben easily avoided her attacks as he crawled to the top of her head and Vanessa glared at him as she tries to hit him, but he manages to jump out of the way in time as Vanessa accidentally smacked herself on the face, and fell down. Grey Matter laughed at her as Vanessa blushed embarrassedly and glared at him as she transformed into Snatcher and morphed into a more buffed version of Grey Matter. Before Ben could react, Snatcher leaps towards him as she tackles him to the floor, and a white number of a 7 appeared beside them.

Ben and Van 10!

Grey Matter struggled to escape from the chokehold Snatcher was giving him as he thought quickly and transformed into Overflow as Snatcher lost her grip on him and fell on the floor. Overflow smirked down at the terrified Snatcher as he raised his hand and washed her away with a burst of water as Snatcher's physical form dissolved into a puddle of goo. Snatcher glared at the smirking Cascan before transforming into White Fang as she hissed at him and jumps onto his head. Ben struggled to push her off as White Fang used her sharp claws to scratch him, but couldn't slice through his hard exoskeleton as a white number of an 8 appeared beside them.

Ben and Van 10!

Overflow grunted before transforming into Wildvine as he used his tendrils to grab Vanessa's waist and threw her off. White Fang landed in a low crouch as she growled at him and transforms into Kralastico as she extended her hands and fists blew up to ridiculous proportions. Wildvine and Kralastico glared daggers at each other as they took off into a sprint and raised their fists just as a white number of a 9 appeared above them.

Ben and Van 10!

Wildvine and Kralastico struggled to free themselves as they accidentally tied themselves up with their stretched-out limbs during the fight. Kralastico whimpers and Wildvine stared at her worriedly before grinning as an idea popped into his head. Whispering his plan into Vanessa's ear, Kralastico nodded with a smile as Ben transformed into Stinkfly, and Vanessa morphed into Freakazette as they escaped from their bonds. Stinkfly flew in the air happily as Freakazette pops up behind him and pulls out a sign with a white number 10 on it from her hammerspace.

Ben and Van 10!

Happy to not be fighting anymore, Stinkfly and Freakazette smiled at each other as the young cartoon alien reached out and literally flipped the scene around as we see Ben and Vanessa standing in a white room while back in their human forms as Max and Gwen stood beside them.

Ben shared a low five with his grandfather while Vanessa shared a hug with Gwen as the red-haired girl ran off with her grandfather off-screen. Leaving behind the kids as Ben and Vanessa stared at each other for a few seconds before blushing as they shyly held hands, and their Biomnitrix's glows brightly as their fusion aliens appeared beside them.

{Season 1, Episode 1: The Filth}

At Devastation Falls, we see a large tanker truck lying on its side with smoke coming out of it as the driver was gagged and tied up inside. The driver whimpers in fear as a large bulky man appeared while wearing an orange hazmat suit as he carried a barrel of toxic waste over his shoulder. The mysterious man grunted as he dropped the barrel on the ground, and opened the lid as he stared at the green goo inside curiously, and smells it as the man recoiled back in disgust from the smell and shakes his head as he then grabbed onto the barrel and dumped the contents into a machine as it began powering up.

"Is that all?" A voice says as the mysterious man turns around and saw a tiny, humanoid cockroach with a human head glaring up at him as he taps his foot on the ground impatiently. The ugly mutant is a two-feet-tall, 35-year-old male Human/Cockroach hybrid as he has two yellow eyes with dark bags around them, a mole on his cheek, tan skin, sharp teeth, slick black hair, a black mustache, and three appendages on each side of his cockroach-like body. His name is Maurice.

"Well?" Maurice asked, after a few seconds of awkward silence, as the mysterious man took off his helmet, revealing that he had the head of a cockroach as he growls at Maurice while making hand gestures as he speaks in gibberish. "What do you mean, we need more, Sydney?" Maurice asked, annoyed as the newly named Sydney continued speaking gibberish. "Ugh, well, I guess it can't be helped. We need to find more waste, but we already drain out all the waste from this valley, so I don't know where else to-ugh! What's that smell?!" Maurice asked in disgust while plugging his nose as a foul stench hits the air, and Sydney shrugs as he didn't know where the smell was coming from either.

Elsewhere, we see a big blue RV parked in the middle of the desert as we zoom in and see an elderly man cleaning the RV with a cheery look on his face as he whistled a tune. The elderly person is 5'10-feet-tall, 65-years-old man with grey/white hair, brown eyes, a chubby build, and wears a brown cargo vest over a red Hawaiian shirt with a white shirt underneath, blue jeans, and brown shoes. His name is Maxwell Tennyson, although he prefers to be called Max.

"Nothing more rewarding than enjoying clean living quarters. You with me on that, girls?" Maxwell asked the little girls standing behind him as they were cleaning the counter.

One of the girls is a 4'2-feet-tall, 10-year-old child with short red hair, green eyes, fair skin, and her outfit consists of a light blue t-shirt with a symbol of a black cat face on it, a white shirt underneath, light brown shorts, and blue/white converse shoes. She also wears a blue hairclip to pin her hair to the left side of her face. Her name is Gwendolyn Tennyson, although she prefers to be called Gwen.

The other girl is a 4-feet-tall, 10-year-old child with long, curly blue hair that was tied up into twin pigtails, baby blue eyes, Caucasian skin, a few freckles on her cheeks, and her outfit consisted of a light purple t-shirt with a purple bow on her head, blue jeans, and light purple shoes, but the weirdest part about her getup was the skintight green gauntlet that was strapped on her right forearm as it has a square screen with a green hourglass symbol on it. Her name is Vanessa Agatha Cunnigham, although she prefers to be called Van.

"You got that right, Mr. Tennyson," Van says with a small smile as Gwen frowned.

"In theory, yes, but we have been cleaning for hours, and that funky smell is still in the air," Gwen says while wrinkling her nose in disgust at the foul stench in the air.

"Well, we cleaned everywhere in the RV, except for-," Van says before hearing some chuckling behind the curtains at the other side of the RV as Van sighed. "Of course." Van deadpans as she walked over to the curtains and pulled them open. "Eww!" Van cried out while cringing in disgust at the sight of the garbage-filled area. "I think I'm going to be sick," Van says with her face going green as Max patted her back comfortably. Suddenly, they heard laughter coming from inside a nearby laundry basket as Gwen walks over to it and lifts the top up as she glares at the small being inside.

The small being is a 5-inch-tall, grey-skinned, frog-like, bipedal alien with large green eyes that have rectangular pupils and horizontal eyelids as he also has a large black stripe that runs from his forehead to the back of his neck, and his outfit consists of a green jumpsuit with a thin vertical black stripe down the front and back, and he has a green hourglass symbol planted to his back. His name is Grey Matter.

"Ha, classic mislead!" Grey Matter says amusedly while leaning against the wall of the basket as he was watching some cartoons on his iPod.

"Ben, your side of the camper is like a toxic-waste dump," Gwen complained as Van appeared beside her, and glared down at the small alien.

"Yeah, any chance you want to get off your sorry butt and help us clean?"

"Shh! Please be quiet! The episode is starting to get good." Grey Matter says as Van gave him a deadpanned look, and grabs the iPod as she lifts it over his head. "Hey! My program! Give it back!" Grey Matter demanded as he leaps towards Vanessa, but Gwen caught him as she dangles him in mid-air.

"No, Ben! Stop being lazy and clean your side of the RV." Gwen ordered as Grey Matter struggled to escape from her grasp while also trying to reach for his iPod.

"I will clean it later!" Grey Matter says as he escaped from Gwen's hold, and leaps towards Vanessa, but the 10-year-old girl manages to evade him as he crashes against the counter.

"You said later last week...and the week after that...and the week after that!" Van yelled, annoyed as Max walked up to them and gave his nephew a stern look.

"The girls are right, Ben. You're starting to shirk your chores and force us to clean up your mess. It's time to take responsibility for your actions, son." Max says while crossing his arms as Grey Matter rolled his eyes and scoffed.

"I am responsible, Grandpa." Grey Matter says as he taps the hourglass symbol on his back, and a green flash covered his body as, once the light disappeared, we see a 10-year-old boy standing in Grey Matter's place as he frowns at the old man. The young boy is approximately 4-feet-tall with emerald green eyes, spiky brown hair, and wears a black/green shirt with the number 10 on the top left corner, dark green cargo shorts, and black low profile sneakers, but the weirdest part about his outfit was the skintight green gauntlet that was strapped on his left forearm as it has a square screen with a green hourglass symbol on it. His name is Benjamin Kirby Tennyson, although he prefers to be called Ben.

"I clean up super-sized messes with the Biomnitrix every day!" Ben says while gesturing to the gauntlet that was strapped on his forearm as Vanessa gave him a deadpanned look.

"Not alone need I remind you," Van says while pointing at her own gauntlet as Ben smiled at her sheepishly.

"That may be, but ignoring your chores to watch cartoons is not exactly responsible, Ben" Max scolds as Ben winced, and looks down guiltily. "Now, here's your chore list," Max says while handing him a stack of papers as Ben struggled to hold it.

"Why's it so heavy?"

"That's what happens when you don't do your work, it piles up. And I don't like to do this, Ben, but you can't join us on our fun-filled excursion today, " Max says sternly as Ben groans, and the girls smirked.

"Karma collected." Gwen and Van said in unison as they shared a high-five.

"While the girls and I are having a great time exploring the famous local bat-guano caves, you'll be here doing your chores," Max says as the girls blinked in surprise.

"Bat-what?" Gwen says as Van grimaces.

"And no cartoons, until you finished," Max says as Ben pouted, but nodded as unknown to them, they were being spied on by Maurice and Sydney as they were hiding behind a large rock a few feet ahead from the RV.

"Yes, that rolling domicile is bursting with waste!" Maurice says with a grin while spying on the family with a pair of binoculars as he turns to Sydney. "Sydney, let's execute Phase 1: Stomp the chump!" Maurice says as they both grinned.

"Prepare yourself for wonders and excrement!" Max says excitedly as Gwen groans.

"Uh, Mr. Tennyson? I'm not feeling well, so I think I'm going to stay behind and give Ben a hand with his chores." Van says as Max raised an eyebrow at her.

"Are you sure? You will be missing out on some sweet bat-guano action." Max says with a sing-songy voice as Van winced and her face went green as she quickly shakes her head.

"Yeah, no thanks. I'll just stay here and help Ben out." Van says as Ben looks at his Biomnitrix before glancing at Van's Biomnitrix as he grins mischievously.

"Well, okay then. See you later." Max says as he and Gwen walked away, and the kids waved at them goodbye.

"Bye!" Ben says before turning to Van as he raised his Biomnitrix. "Well, it's time to get to work. It's Fusion Time!" Ben says as he was about to slam his Biomnitrix against Vanessa's Biomnitrix, but the young girl leans back as Ben missed, and falls to the ground.

"Who said I was going to help you? I just didn't want to see bats poop." She says as Ben stood up, and Vanessa walks back into the RV as Ben followed after her.

"But you told Grandpa that you will give me a hand!" Ben exclaimed as Van smirked and sat down on a chair.

"And, I will," Van says as she clapped her hands, and he stared at her deadpanned.

"You're hilarious," Ben says as Van smiled at him innocently, and he rolled his eyes. "Fine, whatever. I will just do this on my own." Ben says as he activated his Biomnitrix, and an icon of a dinosaur-like creature appeared as Ben grins. "It's Hero Time!" Ben yells as he slammed his hand on the device, and a green glow appeared.

Once the light dies down, we see a 5-feet-tall, semi-armored, velociraptor-like alien with grey roller balls on his feet as he has predominantly blue skin with bulging green eyes, black lips, black stripes extending from his eyelids, wears a black conoid helmet, two grey fins planted on his back, 2 claw-like fingers on each of his hands, his elbows and legs are sharply pointed and has a long striped blue/black tail. His outfit consists of a black turtleneck shirt with a green stripe on the center, black pants, and has the Biomnitrix symbol planted on his chest. His name is...

"XLR8!" Ben shouted before zipping towards the stack of papers his grandpa gave him. "Let's see this list," XLR8 says as he speeds reads the stack of paper, and nods. "Alright, first, I got to clean the bumper."

"Well, get to it, Ben," Van says while relaxing on the chair as XLR8 mumbled angrily at her and zipped outside as he wore a white apron, a pair of yellow gloves, and held a bucket of water in his hands.

"The things I do for cartoons," XLR8 muttered as he was about to clean the bumper, but stops. "Hey, wait a minute! The bumper is already cleaned!"

"Is that a dunce cap on your head?" A familiar voice asked as XLR8 looks up and blinks as he saw Maurice standing on top of the bumper. "What are you supposed to be? Where's the ugly kid?" He says as XLR8 stared at him offendedly.

"Ugly!? Have you look yourself in the mirror lately, buddy?" XLR8 asked as Maurice glared at him. "So, what are you anyway? Oh, let me guess, you're a mad scientist that tried to mutate your body to be more indestructible like a cockroach, but something went wrong, and now you got stuck with that tiny disgusting bug body." XLR8 deduced as Maurice blinks at him in surprise.

"Huh, you're actually on point, but you forgot one little detail."

"What is it?" XLR8 asked as a large shadow fell on top of him, and he looks up as he saw Sydney glaring down at him, and Ben gulps.

"I wonder how Ben's doing?" Van asked herself while relaxing on her bed with a magazine in her hands.

"Van!" XLR8 yelled as Vanessa sighed and put down her magazine as she walks towards the door.

"Ben, I keep telling you, I can't help you with your chores," Van says as she opens the door, and blinks in shock as she saw a cockroach with a human's body trying to hit XLR8, who was dodging his attacks with ease as a human with a cockroach's body stood by. "...How is this not the weirdest thing I've seen?" Vanessa asked herself confusedly as Maurice heard her and turned around.

"It's the girl with the weird hair!" Maurice says as Vanessa stared at him offendedly. "Take her out, Sydney!" Maurice yells as Sydney nodded, and pulled out a gun as Van froze at the sight of it.

"Vanessa!" XLR8 shouted before narrowing his eyes in anger as his visor closed up, and runs over to Sydney as he tackles him to the floor just as Sydney pressed the trigger.

"Aah!" Van screams while covering her head as the bullet flies past her and hits the cupboards behind her. "What the heck is going on!?" Vanessa asked as Maurice suddenly appears behind her and pushes her off the RV as she fell on the ground.

"Vanessa!" XLR8 yelled as he zipped towards her and helped her up to her feet.

"Sydney! It's time to initiate phase 2!" Maurice yells as Sydney nodded, and ran towards the van. Vanessa flinched at his running form, events from earlier still playing in her mind as XLR8 held her close, and watched as Sydney jumps into the RV, and drove off.

"Did we just got hijacked by two ugly mutants?" Van asked as XLR8 rubs her back to calm her down.

"Yeah, we did." He says before looking down at her worriedly. "Are you okay? Do you want me to handle them on my own?" He asked as Vanessa took a deep breath and shook her head as XlR8 let go of her.

"No, we're partners. We fight together or not at all." Vanessa says as XLR8 smiled and nodded. "Go ahead, I will catch up," Van says as Ben nodded, and runs off as Vanessa looks down at her Biomnitrix. "It's time to Alien Up!" Vanessa yelled as she activated her gauntlet, and an icon of a feline-like alien appeared. Vanessa grins slightly as the core popped up, and she slams her hand down on it as a flash of green light occurred.

Once the light dies down, we see a feline-like alien standing in Vanessa's place as she runs around for a few seconds before stopping as she struck a pose and grins at the readers. The feline-like alien is approximately five-feet-tall with small green eyes, a triangle-shaped nose, spike-like blades on his arms/legs, and her outfit consists of a black suit with a thunderbolt-like design, purple gloves/shoes as she also wears a purple/black wolverine-like mask on her face, and has the Biomnitrix symbol was located on her left shoulder. Her name is...

"Blitz!" Vanessa yelled before speeding off as she easily caught up to XlR8 in no time.

"Hey, you caught up! And you picked Blitz, good choice!" Ben complimented as Vanessa smiled at him gratefully and nodded curtly.

"Thanks, now let's go catch those dorks," Blitz says as XlR8 nodded, and they amped up their speed as they ran alongside the moving RV.

"Fellas, I think we got off on the wrong foot here! How about we introduce each other? Hi, my name is Ben Tennyson, and this is my partner Vanessa Cunningham." XLR8 says as Blitz waved in the background. "But right now, you can call us, XLR8 and Blitz!" He says with a grin as the window rolls down, and Sydney popped his head out as he spewed acid at them.

"Whoa!" XLR8 and Blitz said in unison as they zipped to the side to dodge the dangerous slime, and XLR8 smirked at their adversaries.

"Ha, ha, you missed us!" XLR8 taunted before yelping as he crashed against a cactus, and fell down.

"Ben!" Blitz yelled worriedly while looking over her shoulder as she didn't notice that she was running towards a giant rock, and crashed against it as she groans. "Ow," Blitz says before falling down as the RV drove away.

"Okay, this...means...war!" XLR8 exclaimed while appearing beside Vanessa as Blitz rubs her head and nods.

"Agreed." She says as they tapped the Biomnitrix symbols on their bodies, and a flash of dual green lights occurred.

{Attempt 1}

Maurice and Sydney drove across the desert with relaxed looks on their faces as Ben and Vanessa flew above them in their new alien forms.

Ben has transformed into a 4-feet-tall, bug/insect-like creature with four green insect-like flat legs, two green human-style arms with three clawed fingers. Four pedunculated green eyes that are pretty small and are linked directly to the sides of his huge head, two large light green wings with very fragile lines on them, and a large stinger. His outfit consists of a green sleeveless jumpsuit with black lining, which covers most of his body, including his head and tail, as he also wears black fingerless gloves and has the Biomnitrix symbol located on the top of his forehead. Ben had transformed into one of his more aerodynamic aliens, Stinkfly.

Vanessa had transformed into a 5'2-feet-tall, humanoid cloud-like alien with green eyes, long cloud-like hair that is pulled up into a ponytail, no nose, a small mouth, pointy ears, and her outfit consists of a dark purple vest with puffy linen-colored sleeves, light purple gloves/boots, and has the Biomnitrix symbol located on her chest. Vanessa had morphed into her favorite air-controlling alien, Vortex.

"Alright, Van, do you remember the plan?" Stinkfly asked while flying beside Vortex as she nodded. "Good! Then let Operation: Hurricane begin!" He shouted as Vortex flies down towards the RV, and closed her eyes in concentration as she raised her hands and a small tornado formed under the RV.

"Whoa!" Maurice shouted as the RV slowly began to levitate off the ground.

"My turn!" Stinkfly says as he flew into the tornado, and began flying in circles. Thanks to Stinklfy's intervention, the tornado grew bigger as Vortex swung her arm, and the RV was flung out of the cyclone. "One of our finer cyclones if I do say so myself, don't you agree, Vortex?" Stinkfly asked while floating in mid-air as Vortex flew up to him and nodded.

"Definitely, and now all we have to do is wait for the RV to crash on the ground. Once ugly 1 and 2 are disoriented, that's when we swoop in and kick their butts. Now, let's enjoy the show." Vortex says as she created a small cloud under to sit on as Stinkfly sat beside her. The kids eagerly watched as the RV sailed in the air, but then their jaws dropped in surprise as the RV managed to clear an incoming chasm and landed back on the road safely.

"Wowza! Someone loves us bugs! We would've driven straight into that chasm if it wasn't for that random cyclone." Maurice says as Sydney nodded, and they continued driving.

Vortex and Stinkfly groans as they fell back on the cloud, but Stinkfly accidentally phased through through the cloud as he falls through the air, and landed on the ground harshly as he groans in pain, and Vortex looks down at him worriedly.

{Attempt 2}

After shaking off the pain from the fall, Ben and Vanessa had quick-changed into different aliens as they were standing on opposite sides of two giant slopes.

Ben had transformed into a red-skinned humanoid alien that is approximately twelve-feet-tall with well-developed muscles. He also has two pairs of arms with four-fingered hands, a black stripe that goes down from his chin to his lower lip, and four green eyes. His outfit consists of a green T-shirt with a black line going down it, black pants, black gloves, and his Biomnitrix symbol was located on his upper left shoulder. Ben had transformed into the strongest alien in his arsenal, Four Arms.

Vanessa had transformed into a blue-skinned humanoid alien that is approximately 2-feet-tall with long black hair that reaches down to her waist, two small black horns on the top of her head, large expressive green eyes, two tiny fangs, and a long forked tail. Her outfit consists of a long purple dress with a hole sticking out on the back as it allows her tail to pop out, white gloves, and red shoes. And she wears a straw hat that has two holes on it, allowing her horns to stick out freely as she also has the Biomnitrix symbol planted on her chest. Vanessa had transformed into the zaniest alien in her arsenal, Freakazette.

"Okay, Freakazette, are you sure this is going to work?" Four Arms asked while holding onto a large boulder as a small bubble with a chibi version of Freakazette's face on it appeared above him.

"Of course, Four Arms is simple," Freakazette says as the area around them shifted, and Four Arms blinks in surprise as he was suddenly sitting at a desk in an empty classroom.

"What the?" Four Arms says as Freakazette appears while wearing a teacher outfit as she cleared her throat.

"Now, when the bug brothers drive up to the slopes, you and I are going to drop these boulders which will roll down these conveniently placed slopes, and crush the RV!" Freakazette explains and while the reality-defying alien was talking, cartoonish drawings of her and Four Arms appeared on the chalkboard as they shoved two boulders down their slopes, and crushed an incoming RV as their drawings did a small victory dance. "The bad guys will be stunned long enough for you and me to rough them up, Popeye style!" Freakazette says as the cartoonish drawings pulled out cans of spinach, and rips the tops open as they chugged the contents down their throats, and burped as their bodies were suddenly buffed up and they glanced over at the stunned bug brothers as the duo grinned evilly and began beating them up.

"Ha, ha, ha! I loved it whenever you transform into Freakazette, Van! You're just as funny as Zingo!" Four Arms says as Freakazette smiled shyly and blushed.

"Aww, Benji, you flatter me. How about I give you a big wet kiss?" Freakazette says as she suddenly jumps into his arms, and her lips grew to gigantic proportions as she kisses his entire face.

"Eww! Van!" Four Arms complained as Freakazette stops kissing him, and giggles.

"He, he, sorry, I couldn't help myself. Now come on, enough with the mushy stuff." Freakazette says as her head literally melted like an ice cream cone under the hot sun before another head popped in as she grins wildly at the four-armed alien. "Let's rock!" Freakazette says as she suddenly had rocker clothes and makeup, and strummed her guitar as giant pink soundwaves appeared. Four Arms yelped in surprise as he found himself sliding down giant pink soundwaves before being dropped into the real world as they noticed that the RV was driving closer to them. "Okay, get ready," Freakazette says as she grabs a hold of her boulder, and eagerly waited for the right moment to push the large rock as Four Arms did the same.

"Three...two...one...go!" Four Arms and Freakazette yells as they pushed their boulders, and watched in anticipation as the boulders rolled down the slopes, and were heading straight towards the incoming RV.

"Hold on a sec," Maurice says while reading a map as Sydney stopped the RV just as the boulders narrowly rolled past the vehicle. "According to this, we're heading in the wrong direction!" Maurice yells as Sydney talked gibberish again. "Upside down? What are you-Oh, yeah, you were right, the map was upside down." Maurice says as he turns the map around, and gave his annoyed partner a sheepish grin. "My mistake, carry on," Maurice says with a smile as Sydney grumbles before stepping on the gas pedal as they drove off.

"NOOOOO! How could my brilliant plan failed!?" Freakazette cries out dramatically as their boulders rolled up opposite ends, and flew in the air before falling back on our alien heroes.

"Oh, man!/Mommy!" Four Arms and Freakazette shouted as the boulders fell on top of them. Four Arms groans in pain while Freakazette pulls out a sign with the word 'Ow!' on it.

{Attempt 3}

Having enough of the indirect approach, Ben and Vanessa decided to get up close and personal as they quick-changed into new aliens.

Ben had transformed into a hulking, 9-feet-tall, broad-shouldered alien with green eyes, sharp teeth, and is covered with natural yellow armor plating on his back, shoulders, and the back of his arms. He is mostly white with black on his upper half, four claws on both of his hands, and has the Biomnitrix symbol located on his forehead. Ben had transformed into the living wrecking ball, Cannonbolt.

Vanessa had transformed into a 20-feet-tall humanoid triceratops-like alien with green eyes, three white horns on her head, two huge muscular arms with three fingers on each hand, yellow teeth, a long tail, and elephant-sized feet. Her armored hide is black with minor plating on her shoulders, tail, back, arms, and upper legs, and has a white-colored chest, abs, inner arms, and lower jaw. She also has a war hammer that was attached at the end of her tail naturally, and the Biomnitrix symbol was located at her left breast. Vanessa had transformed into her hulking dinosaur form, Tricetaurus.

"Okay, enough games! It's time to give these dorks the homerun special! Ready, Van?" Cannonbolt asked with his usual deep voice as Tricetaurus nodded determinedly.

"Ready." She says as Cannonbolt grinned and enters his ball form as Tricetaurus took a few steps back before running at him at full force. Cannonbolt prepared himself as Vanessa swung her tail at him, and her war hammer connected with Cannonbolt's armored hide as a green shockwave rang out, and Cannonbolt was flung towards the RV at speeds rivaling a rocket.

"Why are you so jittery, Syndey?" Maurice asked Sydney, who was squirming in his seat as Sydney spoke gibberish, and Maurice smacked him in annoyance. "I told you not to drink all that soda." Maurice scolds as Sydney whimpers, and the small mutant sighs. "Fine. Make it quick." Maurice as the RV came to a stop, and Cannonbolt sailed past it as he crashed against a small mountain, destroying it completely as Canonbolt was buried under large boulders and rocks.

"Ben!" Tricetaurus yells out worriedly as she ran over to her partner, and quickly removed all the large boulders as she saw Cannonbolt laying on the ground with a dazed look. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah...peachy," Cannonbolt says while sitting up shakily as the RV drove past them. "Alright, so the last few attempts didn't work, but how about-" He says before shutting up as their Biomnitrix's blinks red, and were forced to change back into their human forms.

"...We continue on foot, and find out what the bug dudes are doing while waiting for our gauntlets to recharge?" Van suggested while pointing at her Biomnitrix, which symbol was colored red instead of green, signifying that it needs a recharge as Ben sighed, but nodded as they followed after the RV on foot.

After walking for a rather long time, Vanessa and Ben had arrived at an abandoned toxic waste factory as they entered the building through a crack on the wall and looked around for the RV.

"Rust Bucket!" Ben screamed.

"Rust Bucket! Where are you!?" Van shouted as the kids continued looking around, and gasped as they found the Rust Bucket parked a few feet ahead of them.

"Rust Bucket!" They yelled happily as the kids ran over to the RV, and blinked in surprise as they noticed the RV was really clean.

"Whoa! What happened to your Grandpa's RV?" Van asked as Ben shrugs.

"Don't know, but it looks really clean," Ben says while inspecting the vehicle as Van gained a confused look.

"This is so weird, why did the bad guys steal our RV just to clean it? Something doesn't add up." Van says Ben nodded.

"Yeah, something is going here...oh, well! We got the RV back, so let's roll!" Ben says cheerfully as Van stared at him with a deadpanned look and smacked him at the back of his head.

"Don't you think we should investigate why they stole our RV to clean it?" Van asked while placing her hands on her hips as Ben was about to respond until they heard a weird sound a few feet ahead of them. The kids glanced at each other as they nodded and walked ahead as they gasped at what they see. Standing a few feet ahead of them was Maurice supervising his minion Sydney as the large mutant was standing near a large weird machine that has Ben's pile of filth on top of it.

"What do you mean it's stuck?" Maurice asked Sydney, who was standing on a stairway near the machine as Sydney spoke more gibberish. "Well, if it's jammed, get in there and stomp on it!" Maurice ordered as Sydney nodded, and jumped on the pile of Ben's trash as he begins bouncing up and down. The kids gave each other confused looks as the machine begins absorbing Ben's garbage, and the gauge on the weird contraption reached 'Full' as it began powering up.

"It's working, Sydney! It's functioning properly!" Maurice yelled as Sydney leaps down from the pile of garbage and runs up to his boss as they then watched as the machine fires a red energy beam to the sky, and Maurice grins madly. "My greatest invention is complete! The Magg-O-Net!" He shouted as a floating big red magnet with a floating ball in the middle appeared.

"...okay, I have no idea what's going on," Ben admitted confusedly as Vanessa nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, me neither, Ben, but whatever that thing is, let's take it down fusion style!" Vanessa says while raising her Biomnitrix that has an icon of Blitz on it as Ben gasped excitedly.

"Really, Van? Do you mean..." Ben says as Vanessa nodded eagerly, and the ten-year-old boy grinned wildly as he raised his Biomnitrix that has an icon of XLR8 on it.

"It's fusion time!" Ben and Vanessa yelled as they slammed their Biomnitrix's together, and a great big flash of green light occurred. Once the light dies down, we see a combined fusion of XLR8 and Blitz appearing on the scene as the fusion alien runs around in a circle at ultra-high speeds before stopping as he posed heroically.

The fusion alien has XLR8's velociraptor-like body, but with feline characteristics, small green eyes, purple skin, a triangular nose, spike-like blades on his arms and legs, black stripes extending from his eyelids, 3-clawed fingers on each of his hands, three grey fins on his back, grey roller balls on his feet, and a long striped purple/black tail. His body was also taller, less haunch over, and with a more muscular built than before, particularly around his legs. His outfit consists of a black jumpsuit with a green thunderbolt design on it, a black conoid helmet with a visor that only covers his eyes, green gloves/shoes, and the Biomnitrix symbol was located on his chest. Ben and Vanessa had now transformed into their combined male fusion of XLR8 and Blitz named...

"Bltz-R8!" The fusion yelled before taking off at hypersonic speeds as the world around him slowed down to a standstill. Bltz-R8 casually walked over to a frozen Maurice and Sydney as he grins, and begins rapidly Sydney's stomach before lightly tapping Maurice's forehead. Bltz-R8 then took a couple of steps back to admire his work as he crossed his arms, and the world went back to its normal time.

"Ugh!" Sydney grunted as he was sent flying through the air and crashed through a pile of toxic barrels as he groans and slowly went unconscious.

"Aaah!" Maurice yelled as he was flung through the air and crashed down on the ground as he groans in pain.

"Ugh, what the hell just happened?" Maurice asked groggily while rubbing his bruised forehead as Bltz-R8 suddenly appeared in front of him and grabbed him the small mutant as he grins down at him.

"Hey, ugly. Did you miss me?" Bltz-R8 asked as Maurice squinted his eyes at the fusion alien and gasped as he recognized him.

"Hey, you're that speedy dinosaur and fast cat from earlier! But you two somehow fused bodies together? How did that happen?" Maurice asked as Bltz-R8 smirked and pointed at the Biomnitrix symbol on his chest.

"There is a reason why our devices are called the Biomnitrix. They not only allow us to transform into 10 awesome alien heroes, but they also allow us to fuse with each other's aliens! Pretty cool, huh?" Bltz-R8 asks as Maurice glared at him.

"It's not cool when you're using it to foil our plans, what's up with that anyway?" Maurice asked, genuinely confused as Bltz-R8 playful look evaporated, and the fusion alien gave the evil mutant an irritated look.

"Dude, you stole our RV, forced us to chase after you all across the desert, and you tried to shoot Vanessa earlier, why do you think I'm trying to foil your plan?!" He yelled with an angry look as Maurice flinched back his yell, and grew guilty.

"Okay, look, the whole me ordering Sydney to shoot a little child was a bit out of line, sorry about that." Maurice apologized as Bltz-R8 took a deep breath to calm down, and glances down at the apologetic mutant.

"Apology accepted. Anyway, why did you steal our RV?" He asked as Maurice rolled his eyes.

"For your trash, duh," Maurice says as if it was the most obvious thing in the world as Bltz-R8 blinks.

"Excuse me?"

"We stole your RV so that we can use your disgusting garbage to power my machine to create my greatest invention ever, the Magg-O-Net!" Maurice exclaimed while pointing at the floating magnet as Bltz-R8 gave him a bewildered look.

"So, you mean to tell me that you went through all that trouble just to steal our garbage!?" Bltz-R8 exclaimed in disbelief as Maurice nodded, and escaped from the alien's gripped as he pulls out a remote with a red button.

"Yes, and thanks to your disgusting habits, I've reached the final phase of my plan! Now prepare to witness the genius that is...Maurice!" The mutant says as he pushes the button, and the magnet began to powerup as Bltz-R8 felt something hit him in the back of his head.

"Huh?" The fusion alien says as he reached behind him and grabbed something as she looks down, and gasped in disgust at the small maggot in his hands. "Ewww!" Bltz-R8 screamed, kind of girly, as he threw the maggot away, and watched in horror as more maggots showed up as they towards the magnet. "Oh, gross! Are those maggots!?"

"Yes!" Maurice cried out as millions of maggots began hovering around the magnet.

Bltz-R8 stepped back in shock as the maggots latched themselves against the magnet, and a red glow appeared as it blinded everyone in the area. Once the light dies down, Bltz-R8 saw a giant, biped monster glaring down at him as the creature roared. The giant maggot monster approximately 12-feet-tall with brown eyes, 6 arms with two of them being small, a long red tongue, and has the Magg-O-Net located safely onto its chest as it glowed faintly.

"...ew, ew, ew, ew!" Bltz-R8 says while backing away rapidly from the disgusting monster as it sets its sights on a building, and growled as it grabs a part of the building, and ate it. "Oh, man! And I thought Ben's side of the RV was disgusting!" The fusion alien says with his face going green as Maggot Monster grabbed Maurice and placed him on its head.

"And now for the coup de grace! Do you see Las Vegas over there?" Maurice asked while pointing at the blinding city of Las Vegas a few miles ahead of them as Maggot Monster nodded. "I want you to eat everything...except for the money!" Maurice ordered as Maggot Monster nodded again, and Bltz-R8 raised an eyebrow in disbelief.

"So, let me get this straight. You stole our RV, so you could fuel that machine with Ben's trash to power a magnet that somehow attracts maggots to make a monster that would destroy Las Vegas, and steal all of their money!? That is the most complicated bank robbery ever!" Blitz-R8 yelled in annoyance before shaking his head as he slammed his fists together. "Whatever, it's time to run!" Blitz-R8 says as his visor slides down, and took off at hypersonic speeds.

Maggot Monster roars in pain as Blitz-R8 used his shoulder spikes to chop off its leg before quickly running back as he cuts off the other one. The giant monster squealed in pain as it falls down, and Maurice fell off of the monster's head as he crashed on the ground and dropped his remote. Panicking, Maurice crawls over to his remote and reached out to grab it...only to grab air as Bltz-R8 appeared in front of him with his remote in his hands.

"You won't be needing this anymore." The fusion alien says as he crushed the remote with Blitz's enhanced strength, and dusts off his hands. "There! Problem solved!" He says with a smirk before blinking in surprise as he noticed that the Maggot Monster was not only still intact, but managed to regrow his missing limps as he stood up, and roared angrily at him.

"If you just hit the off button, it would've shut down! Now, there's no way to stop it from eating Las Vegas, and everything else! Good job, hero!" Maurice says sarcastically as Bltz-R8 briefly looks disheartened but quickly shook his head as he gained a determined look.

"Not gonna happen, dipstick! I may not have created that monstrosity, but I did play a part in its creation, so I will find a way to defeat this oversized maggot mess!" Bltz-R8 shouted heroically as Maurice shrugs.

"Your funeral then. Sydney! Let's bounce!" Maurice yelled as the now conscious Sydney appeared beside him with a dizzy look as the large mutant grabs him, and they ran off.

"What a couple of dorks," Bltz-R8 says as he turned to the giant maggot monster, and stood still as he closed his eyes.

"Van, let's defuse. I was the one who didn't clean my side of the camper and attracted those bug guys in the first place. If it wasn't for me, they wouldn't have enough fuel to create that thing! I can't let you take responsibility for something that wasn't your fault." Ben says through their shared mind as he felt Vanessa smiling at him through their physic link.

"Ben, remember what I said earlier? We fight together or not at all! This may be not my mess, but I will gladly help you clean it because that's what partners are for!" Van says as Ben smiled.

"Thanks, Van. Now, let's eradicate some bugs!"

"Gladly!" Van says as they ended their little physic conversation, and Blitz-R8 opened his eyes as he bends down to a sprinting position as he glared at the giant monster.

"Hey! Bug brain!" He yelled, gaining the monster's attention as the alien hybrid grins, and slides on his visor. "Eat this!" Bltz-R8 yelled as he zooms towards the giant bug monster, and used his shoulder spikes to cleave through his leg before doing the same to his other leg as Maggot Monster falls.

Maggot Monster growls in pain as Blitz-R8 begins running circles around the giant bug monster, and formed a giant cyclone, much bigger than the one that Vortex and Stinkfly made earlier as the disgusting creature roars in anger, and tried to fight against the wind, but it was too strong for it as the giant monster was blown into the air.

Bltz-R8 then stops running as he glances at the toxic barrels, and an idea popped into his head as Bltz-R8 grins, and speeds towards the barrels as he begins whacking them into the air with his tail. After whacking the last barrel into the air, Bltz-R8 decided to put his plan into action as he runs up a wall, and jumps off it as he soars towards the giant monster, and sliced through its stomach as the creature roars in pain.

The fusion alien flew towards the flying barrel as Bltz-R8 used it as a stepping stool to leap towards the maggot monster as he sliced through it again. Bltz-R8 began repeating the same process over and over again until the monster couldn't reform itself anymore as all of the maggots were thrown off, and only the magnet remained. Noticing a few maggots flying towards the magnet again, Bltz-R8 used a toxic barrel to leap towards the magnet as he popped out his shoulder spikes, and they glistened against the sunlight. The fusion alien let out a war cry as he slices through the magnet, and destroyed it as the chopped remains fall to the ground, and all the maggots scampered away.

"And, that's lady and gentlemen, is how you save the day," Bltz-R8 says as the Biomnitrix symbol begins beeping, and a big flash of green light occurred as Ben and Vanessa appeared.

"Whoa!" Van says while tripping her feet as she was about to hit the ground, but Ben caught her.

"Are you okay?" Ben asked worriedly as Van blushed from his concerned look, and having his arms wrapped around her as Ben lifts her to her feet.

"Y-Yeah, I'm fine. Just got dizzy from the de-fusion." Van says nervously as Ben nodded.

"Oh, okay then," Ben says before gasping in horror as he noticed the RV was covered with maggot guts. "Nooooo! It was so clean!" Ben cried out in agony while falling on his knees as Van winced.

"Oops, I guess Blitz-R8 got a little carried away with all the bug slicing," Van says as Ben whimpers, and the young girl placed a hand on his shoulder.

"I can help you clean the RV if you want?" Van offered.

"Really?" Ben asked hopefully as she nodded.

"Yeah, remember what I said earlier, we're partners, so we will always help each other, so come on the RV is not getting cleaned by itself!" Van says while raising her fist determinedly as Ben smirked.

"Yeah, if we could defeat a giant maggot monster, cleaning the RV will be a piece of cake! Especially if we have Bltz-R8!" Ben says as Van nodded.

"Yeah, it's fusion time!" Van shouted as they slammed their Biomnitrix's together, and waited to transform...only to hear two dying beeps as they looked down at their gauntlets confusedly, and noticed that their devices were in their recharge modes. "...Or, we can clean it ourselves," Van suggested sheepishly as Ben grumbles, but nodded as they went to work.

"That was way more fun than I expected to have with bat guano," Gwen says as she and Grandpa Max were walking back towards their RV, and blinked in shock at how clean it looked. "Whoa!" Gwen exclaimed in surprise as she and Max ran into the RV, and gasped as they noticed that every speck of the RV was cleaned...including Ben's side of the RV!

"Tada." Ben and Van said weakly, appearing out of nowhere while wearing white aprons and yellow gloves as they looked absolutely exhausted.

"Ben? Van? Did you two clean this entire RV by yourselves?" Max asked in surprise as Ben nodded.

"Yep, and we did at all without transforming into aliens," Ben says tiredly as Van yawns and leans against Ben's side.

"Not that we could've anyway since they're recharging," Van says just as their Biomnitrix's charged up as the small girl glared at her gauntlet. "Oh, now you decided to time in!" Van complained as Max smiled at the kids.

"Kids, you did a great job with the RV. And Ben? Not transforming into aliens shows how responsible you are for not taking the easy route. And Vanessa? Helping out your friend with his mess, even if you didn't need to, shows just how loyal and caring you are." Max says as the kids beamed at the praise.

"Thanks, Grandpa/Thanks, Mr. Tennyson." Ben and Van said in unison as Max smiled, and closed his eyes as he crossed his arms.

"And if you were wondering Ben, yes you're allowed to watch cartoons again. You earned it." Max says as he opens his eyes and blinks in surprise as he noticed Ben sleeping on the floor with Van as they snuggled up against each other. "Or, you could take a nap," Max says amusedly as Gwen squealed.

"So, cute!" Gwen says as she pulled out a phone and took a picture of them as Max grabbed the kids and placed them on their bed. Van yawns as she laid her head on Ben's shoulder, and the young boy smiled as he pulled Van closer to his body, and their Biomnitrix's glowed faintly under the covers.

And done! I hope you guys enjoyed the chapter, and remember to leave a review.

Anyway, as always, I will catch you all later.
