Hello my fellow readers, writers, and people who have been enjoying this story and my others so far, I'm back with yet another new chapter. In this chapter we're going over the events of the episode Ben 10,000 returns which I have a few ideas on how to change it. I don't have anything else to add in this author's note so without further ado let's get this show on the road.

Ben 10,000's P.O.V
While I was sleeping next to my wife we were woke up by an alarm which in this case was the intruder alert alarm which was made specifically by Azmuth and installed into my headquarters. As we got to the lab where I did most of if not all of my tinkering with the Omnitrix I heard Eon, an old enemy of mine, say "coward you can't hide from me.
I was looking down on him since I was in the rafters of the tower and I said "I'm not hiding I'm making an entrance" and he shouted in anger "Tennyson" and I swung down from the rafters and kicked him onto his back. I said "really eon attacking me all by yourself in my own headquarters you call that a plan" and he said "I don't need a plan to defeat you" and he shot a time beam which missed by a large margin and blasted a hole in a wall in my lab.
He then blasted at me directly but I managed to just get behind something which the time beam hit which caused it to turn to dust. He added "and incidentally I didn't come alone" and what appeared to be his followers that acted like ninjas burst a hole in the roof and came falling down and landing unharmed. As I was taking them down with martial arts that I gained experience in with Gwen helping it was going easy.
As two or more of them noticed their comrades getting taken down they pulled out energy swords and I said "sure it's all fun and games until someone loses an eye" and I started backing up which caused me to get close to the hole in the wall and almost fall. Eon who was acting all smug said "any last words Tennyson I'm collecting them" and I said "I got 7 words for you look out behind you and ultimate Humungosaur."
Just as I used the Omnitrix which appeared as the Ultimatrix dial on the chest with the spikes jutted out I grew in size and Eon was focused completely on me so he didn't notice Mira coming from behind him. She knocked him onto his face and landed beside me in her Satan soul form which like her had matured even more over the 15 years we were married.
As she was taking out the ninjas with a move she called the dark eraser I focused my attention on Eon who was just looking at me. a few of the ninjas got past mira and came after me which I just punched away and then I hit the dial on my chest and said "Articguana" and I shrunk and said "Mira get clear" and she flew up into the rafters and I shot out a breath of cold air which froze the lower half of the ninjas.
I then said "but wait there's more" and I slapped the dial again and said "Heatblast" as the green hologram appeared behind me and I shot fire at the frozen ninjas. Mira then landed right beside me and said "now only the leader left and Eon said "impressive in all my years hunting alternate versions of the both of you I've never encountered ones with your abilities still I shouldn't be surprised considering."
I said "Considering what why are you doing this Eon when we fought before we" but he cut me off and said "that wasn't me Tennyson and soon it wouldn't have been you either." He powered up a time ray that came from his hands and I said "I'm not just going to stand here and let you nail us with that time ray" and I punched the dial on my chest and gave myself the powers of clockwork.
As we were in a time beam struggle I said "that's right I have time traveling powers too" and after a few moments my beam was overpowering his and it caused him to vaporize into small pieces." Just as the watch reappeared on my wrist Paradox appeared behind me and said "Hello Ben Mira" and I said "good to see you Paradox I love you don't show up until it's all over" and he said "it's far from over old friends it's barely begun."

Mira's P.O.V
Both Ben and Kevin were driving their respective cars with me, Lucy, and Grey in Ben's and Gwen, Erza, Lisanna, and Natsu in Kevin's. Kevin out of nowhere said "I love being behind the wheel" and Gwen over the communication said "We do seem to spend less time together since everyone got their licenses" and Ben said "well consider this a reunion."
Kevin said "quality time tracking down the source of the mystery transmission your Ultimatrix found" and Ben said "it's either an uncatalogued alien or yet another feature I can't to figure out or its broken again." We stopped at a museum and after Kevin got us in by making a key with his finger after absorbing the metal we were walking around with the Ultimatrix beeping repeatedly and rapidly.
Gwen said "which way" and Ben said "We're right on top of it" and Kevin said "creepy museum basement figures" and we all went searching for a door that lead to the basement and I was the one who found it and I called out "found it." After a moment everyone was going down the stairs and we came upon a large crate and Ben said "it has to be in here."
I said "What makes you think it's in that crate in particular" and Ben said "haven't you seen the movies it's always the largest crate." Gwen said "there should be a crowbar around here somewhere" and Natsu just called out "fire dragon's iron fist" which caused the crate to be broken open and he said "we already broke into the museum what's the big deal."
Grey said "let's just see what it is already" and he pulled off the broken wood and threw it aside and it was circular relic with a bulbus center and strange marking all around it on the outside of the bulbus center. Ben said "that's weird are those magic symbols" and our whole group from earthland said "nope they're something else completely."
Ben then touched the bulbus center and a purple stream of energy appeared, and went into the Ultimatrix. After Ben pulled his hand away the whole thing shattered the crate that it was in and it glowed purple and some creatures came out of it. Just as they started attacking us I noticed that there were at least 3 of them attacking each of us so I transformed into my Satan soul form and knocked all three after me down with a dark eraser.
They easily got up after that and came at me with glowing swords so I took to the skies to hopefully increase my chances at stopping them. As I was shooting the dark erasers at them I saw Ben transform into spidermonkey and Gwen take some of them down with a whip made of mana and that gave me an idea.
I formed a sphere in my hands as if I were using the dark eraser only instead of shooting the sphere I formed it into a long whip shape and knocked all of them down and at this point they actually stayed down. Ben must have decided to make sure they did since he stuck all the ninjas to the floor and said "okay that's the last of them" and as Kevin picked up one of them to take off the helmet they all disappeared."
Ben said "Oh come on" and transformed back and Natsu said "what's the big idea we beat them" and Erza slammed her armored fist down on Natsu's head and said "because you idiot they escaped and we don't even know what they wanted" and Ben added on "or why the Ultimatrix led us to them" and Natsu said "yeah but other than all that" and Ben said "yeah we won."

Ben 10,000's P.O.V
Paradox just said "you didn't win Benjamin" and I said "maybe you missed it bad guy completely vaporized" and Paradox said "Eon has not been destroyed you merely knocked him down your own timeline" and Mira caught on quickly as usual and said "he did mention that he'd been traveling cross time do you think he tricked us."
Paradox said "into sending him into your own past in order to face you when you were both less powerful yes" and I said "well we have to do something." Paradox just looked at his pocket watch which at this point in our time he had already explained to us that's the device he uses to travel to different time periods and he called it the chrono-navigator and said "you already are."
(Bellwood, present day)
We were still in the basement of the museum and Gwen was about to touch the thing and Grey grabbed her wrist and said "you really want to do that since that's how those things got out before." She said "I don't think so" and then touched it and said "I'm getting a weird vibe off of it almost like I'm sensing my own mana I'm going to try a spell of revelation."
After igniting her hands in mana she called out a spell that through our time here I never heard or read about "Ostendo specialis" and a image appeared inside of a mana screen thing that showed two kids and a younger Max and Ben said "that's us when we were kids" and Natsu said "so you did a spell to show the past" and she said "no it's just supposed to reveal secrets."
The image changed into a guy in all purple or black clothes with a helmet on and his hands ignited in what appeared to be electricity and after a moment the energy built up and I prepared for another fight. However that wasn't necessary since the energy build up disappeared without any of the ninja things appearing.
Gwen placed a hand to her forehead and fell to her knees and Natsu said "Are you okay" and she said "the spell's broken I don't know why." Kevin said "maybe someone erased your memories or uh" and Ben cut in "or maybe it was time travel and something happened to change our history." After a flash of light behind us a deep voice said "good guess" and we turned around to see Paradox with two other people.
Paradox said "good guess it's completely wrong" and the guy with him said "wrong but clever" and Gwen said "Professor Paradox" and he said "hello children." Kevin said "who are your friends" and Ben looked at him closely and said "Are you" and the person shook Ben's hand and said "that's right Ben I'm you only even more awesome."
The other person with them looked like me and I said "and let me guess you're the future version of me" and she said "yeah." Ben's future self said "Ben 10,000 at your service" and Kevin said "I heard about you you're the jerk from the future" and future Ben said "that was a different Ben 10,000 but I do remember going to that future when we were 10 what a buzzkill that guy was."
Ben then said "you're my real future" and Paradox said "yes so long as nothing occurs to change it that's why I've bent the rules of time and brought you together." Ben realizing that Paradox normally doesn't come and help unless there's real trouble he said "we're in trouble" and future Ben said "We've been in tougher spots one time when I was president of earth."
At that point future me leaned over and whispered "he's always going on about this to people that don't remember that." Ben said "wait I'm going to be president of earth" and future Ben said "just long enough to defeat the third Vilgaxian invasion it turns out that Gwen was better at the day to day stuff you're a shoo-in for a second term red."
Paradox said "spoiler alert Benjamin let the children discover they're own futures assuming they survive the current crisis." He walked over to whatever the heck the thing was and said "We'll take this along it is the source of our difficulties." We drove to the rustbucket 3 and started flying though the sky and the rest of us were in the cockpit while Ben and his future counterpart were in the cargo bay strapping in the thing we took with us.
Kevin said "are you sure about this we're in the middle of nowhere" and Paradox said "one only hopes it's far enough" and Kevin said "nothing ever makes any sense when you're around" and Paradox said "that's a fair criticism." Kevin said "that still doesn't explain how Ben met himself in the future but it wasn't this guy" and Paradox explained "you traveled into cross time."
Gwen said "like a parallel universe" and Paradox said "precisely" and Ben then said "that explains why that me didn't remember it happening to him before." Kevin turned to future Ben and both of them said at the same time "but you remember all of this" and future Ben said "yeah I do" while crossing his arms."
Kevin said "okay don't do that" and Paradox said "as Gwen guessed cross time is made up of parallel worlds of the history we know. There's hundreds of them one where Gwen found the Omnitrix, one where Albedo turned into alien x and was trapped for nearly a year, one where you didn't have to destroy the Omnitrix to defeat Vilgax."
Future Ben said "Et cetera" and Paradox said "ad infinitum these worlds are all as real as our own but they cannot they must not be allowed to leak into our own." Future Ben said "and that brings us to our problem" and Ben said "the hand of armageddon" and Paradox said "precisely it is a cross time gateway existing in many worlds."
Future Mira motioned to Gwen and said "you saw into one of them with your spell" and Ben said "wait a minute if you remember that if you remember this whole adventure then we can't lose" and future Mira said "because we're the two of you 20 years from now if we lose here the future ceases to be" and Paradox looked at his watch and said "if you could speed up Kevin."
Kevin said "wow no one's asked me to go faster" and Paradox said "it's just that a cross chronal warp is opening up nearby" and the whole ship shook." Mira said "let me guess in the cargo bay" and Paradox said "I'm afraid so I'll see you good people on the ground probably" and he teleported away. both Bens and both Me's went down to the cargo bay.
As we got there the hand of armageddon was floating in the air and more of the ninjas were appearing from it and I said "what do they want." Future ben said "to crash us" and Ben said "yeah no" and transformed into Goop. He said "the one time I wanted Rath" and he knocked two down that were running toward him and grabbed two more and slammed them into each other.
As I was taking them down with the dark eraser whip which seemed to work back at the museum one of them was about to hit me only for it to be frozen in some ice. I looked back at future Ben and saw that he had an ultimate dial on his chest and he slammed it and in a green hologram view spidermonkey appeared behind him.
We started going down and future ben and me opened the door to the ship and Ben said "where are you two going" and both of them at the same time said "we thought we'd step outside" and they jumped and I saw a green flash while my future self was already in Satan soul form which could fly and after a moment the ship landed without us all be killed.
As Kevin got out of the ship he said "the ninjas disappeared as soon as we beat them" and future Ben said "yeah they do that" and Gwen said "you two just landed a spaceship" and future me seemed to have a bit of an ego as well because she said "from the outside don't forget the cool part" and Ben said "how do you do all that without transforming."
Future ben said "I haven't bothered to for years not since I discovered my best transformation" and I said "let me guess what you called it ultimate Ben" and he said "how did you know." I said "Because not only do you have the ultimate dial on your chest but I know how both versions of you think." Ben said "what power comes with that" and he said "pretty much all of them you'll figure it out someday."
Grey said "yeah great so why did we fly the hand of armageddon all the way out to the desert" and Paradox then appeared and said "to destroy it." We got the hand of armageddon far enough away from the ship and Paradox said "the ninja's work for a being named Eon a creature from the cross-time earth Gwen showed you with her spell."
Future Ben said "Eon was defeated by the ben of that world when he destroyed their version of the hand" and Paradox said "that Ben thought that Eon was destroyed as well but he wasn't. he was thrown out of that reality and into cross-time." Future me then took over and said "Since then he's been traveling from one parallel earth to the next taking down every Ben 10 and me that he can find."
Gwen said "why" and Paradox said "we don't know but we do know that he needs an operation hand of armageddon to enter our world." Natsu said "so we're going to destroy it" and Paradox said "yes although not just in this world all throughout space and time every version." Kevin said "why can't you just do it with your time powers" and Paradox said "there are rules Kevin I cannot interfere."
Erza said "Excuse me but aren't you already interfering by bringing both future Ben and Mira here" and Paradox said "touché actually I only came to give young Ben a warning but that can wait." Ben said "until what" and he said "until I see if you survive" and both Ben stood on either side of the hand of armageddon.
Future Ben said "Ready" and Ben said "yeah" and transformed into waybig and future Ben slapped the ultimate dial on his chest and a holographic clockwork appeared behind it. Both of them started firing beams at the hand of armageddon and after a few moments Lisanna said "has anyone seen Natsu" and we all looked around and saw that he was fighting his way through the wind and called out the name of his attack "Fire dragon's roar."
I looked at both Bens and noticed their dials on their chests turning purple and I said "is that suppose to be happening" and Paradox said "no I've been deceived stop he's using your power to open a breach." Ben stopped but fell back onto the ground as did future Ben and then 6 ninjas appeared and were bowing and eventually the one I assumed was Eon appeared and said "finally I'm free."
Ben still in his waybig form said "not for long" and Eon just shot a time beam at him which caused waybig to turn into dust" and I quickly transformed into my Satan soul form and future me held my back by my shoulder" and I said "what are you doing I'm going to go get revenge." She said "no need take a second look" and I looked over at the pile of ash and saw that Ben was slowly getting out it."
We all rushed over with Gwen keeping a shield up and I kneeled down and said "are you okay" and he said "yeah" and Paradox said "Eon eradiated waybig with accelerated time he's gone" and future Ben jumped over the mana shield and said "so is any other transformation he hits with that beam be careful Ben" and Ben said "he's the one that better be careful."
He transformed into swampfire and then almost immediately ultimate swampfire and the ninjas charged toward us and Ben said "take them down hard" and threw a couple explosives at them which knocked quite a few of them out of commission. Since I was already in my Satan soul form I formed the dark eraser whip and future me said "want to do a tag team of demons" and I said "sure."
We both charged in and took down as many ninjas as Ben did however more were coming from the hand of armageddon as Eon was walking toward my Ben. He said "Tennyson prepare to die" and Ben said "maybe later" and threw seeds on the ground which sprouted as a thick vine wall which Eon destroyed with accelerated time.
I looked at future Ben and saw that he was rolling on the ground so I had assumed that Eon somehow managed to do that. I looked back and saw that everyone with the exception of Lucy was managing to hold her own against the ninjas since one of them were holding her arms behind her back and Eon was walking up to her.
I was able to hear the conversation clear as day and it with Eon being the only one talking "I have no use for you so prepare to be destroyed" and since as I was about to intervene Erza must have saw and heard this since she ran forward and sliced Eon with her sword. The result of that was Eon being knocked to the ground and then Erza turned her attention to the ninja that was holding Lucy and Erza summoned a few dozen swords and pointed them all at the ninja.
Sensing her anger and most likely influenced by the swords pointing at her the ninja released her grip however the swords remained. Since the ninja was concentrated on the swords it didn't see Erza swing the sword that she was holding at it which caused it to fall to the ground. Lucy then took out a blaster since she seemed to have only been captured due to her being low on magic energy.
I saw that Ben had managed to get behind Eon and was holding his wrists preventing him free movement and Ben said "why don't you explain yourself why attack me over and over." Eon said "our paths are intertwined in this and every other time line" and he flipped Ben over his body and shot ultimate swampfire with a time beam which caused him to transform back as both swampfire's were destroyed.
Eon said "it's over" and was preparing to shot Ben with a time beam however just before he could a shield of diamond appeared in front of the time beam. I heard future Ben say "give it your best shot Eon diamond doesn't particularly age" and Eon said "I came here to destroy your younger self but plans can change" and he shot a time beam at future Ben.
Future Ben just called out "Protego" and he must have seen the shocked look on mine and Ben's face because he said "you hang around an anodite for 20 years you pick up a few tricks." He then slapped the dial on his chest and a holographic version of XLR8 appeared and he rushed out from behind the shield and grabbed Ben on the way.
Since Gwen and Kevin were having the most trouble with the ninjas both me and future me went over and helped them. As we were fighting Kevin said "Weird they don't talk" and Gwen said "probably just to intimidate us" and he said "maybe makes me curious though" and she said "let's take a look" and called out a spell "statua" and they all froze mid fight.
Kevin the walked up to one and tapped it on the mask and got ready to remove it and Gwen said "it's going to be creepy I bet they don't even have mouths." Kevin the took the helmet off and said "or something worst" and it was revealed that it was Ben" and Gwen said "Ben get over here" and both of them appeared.
Ben said "this raises a few questions" and Kevin said "yeah like where did you learn ninjutsu" and Eon walked over to us with a slice in his armor but otherwise unharmed. He said "so you discovered our secret" and future Ben said "you're not destroying Ben Tennyson's your absorbing them" and Eon said "we feed on their power and make them our slaves along with the multiple of you we've faced" he said while motioning to me and future me.
I said "what do you mean we" and the female ninja that had Lucy held captive for a moment appeared right next to Eon and Eon said "once we absorb you we'll finally have enough power to erase this time line and make a new one." They took off their masks and Eon was revealed to be double of future Ben and the female ninja was revealed to be a copy of future me.
Eon then said "where we will be the only Ben Tennyson and Mirajane Strauss" and Paradox appeared and said "I will not allow that Eon" and Evil me said "you cannot interfere time walker and you know why." Paradox said "true but if you proceed there is no place in all of space and time that you two can hide from me" and Eon said "I'll burn that bridge when we come to it.
Now I've got a couple of Ben Tennyson's to absorb" and the evil me said "and I've got a couple of me to absorb as well" and Ben said "they didn't come from the hand of armageddon they came from our watches" and future Ben said "and the whole fight they've been leading us away from it." Ben said "hold them off I've got something to break" and he transformed into Jetray and flew to where the hand of armageddon was.
We all managed to knock them down and closer to the hand of armageddon and Eon said "no" and they both created a shockwave that knocked us all down and were shooting at Ben who was dodging the attacks. After a moment the hand blew up and after a moment both Eon and evil me started bursting into particles and created a large explosion where they had stood.
Gwen had managed to shield us though and after the smoke cleared we saw Ben laying in the crater the hand of armageddon made and Natsu said "there he is." Kevin looked at him and said "thank you captain obvious" and that insult just flew right over his head. Ben had transformed back and said "not so loud I'm trying to sleep" and he got up" and Paradox said "then sleep soundly with the knowledge that Eon is no more.
And all the cross-time worlds with which they interfered will shortly return to normal" and Ben looked at his future self and said "you know this was going to happen it happened to you before." Future Ben said "both of them messed with the timeline so badly that I wasn't sure that I hadn't ended up in parallel world" and Paradox took out his pocket watch and said "I can confirm this is the original time line.
However, the cost of victory was high young Ben lost waybig and both swampfire's today if only there were some way to restore them" and future Ben said "yeah okay I get I'll put them back in your playlist" and Ben said "while you're at it how about giving me master control." Future Ben said "nice try but I'm already in enough trouble with Azmuth"
After fiddling with the Ultimatrix for a moment he said "there you go I've just unlocked everything you've ever become up until now and I added in a few new ones. Because It'll annoy Azmuth when he finds out" and future me turned to him and said "you really like annoying Azmuth don't you, you know he can take the watch from you anytime he wants right."
Future Ben said "at this point it's a game if he gives in I win and he knows that" and Paradox said "well time to go however first a warning to my young friends. Beware old George beware the creature from beyond so long" and before they left I noticed a ring on my future self's hand and I asked her "is that from who I think it is" and she just gave me a knowing smirk and said "sorry I can't give you any spoilers" and they disappeared.
Lucy said "what do you think he meant by that" and Kevin said "I don't understand anything he says I just tune him out" and Ben said "whatever the problem is I've got Ultimatrix to spare it is so hero time."
Yet another chapter done what did you think of me added a future Mira and an evil mira that was with Eon. Even if you weren't a huge fan of it sorry but it would take too much time to go back and take all that out so while I can I really don't want to sorry. In the next chapter we're going over the events of the episode prisoner 775 is missing
Again, I'm skipping moon struck because of the simple fact that nothing would change since it's a max themed episode and not only that but it's a flashback episode. Also what did you think of the teamfourstar reference at the end there anyway until next time this is Diamondholder signing off.
