AUTHOR'S NOTE: Hey guys! Sorry for the crazy long wait on this chapter. I was super busy with school work, as the semester just started earlier this month. In fact, I didn't even start writing this chapter until a week after I published the last one, which is super unlike me. Also, an Anon review pointed out that I named one of Ben's fusions "Chromomonkey" when it should have been "Chromamonkey." Expect that to be fixed in any future appearances. Anyway, let's get into this episode of Ben 10: Generations, shall we?
RECAP: Last time, on Ben 10: Generations, our legendary hero, Ben 10K, investigated an explosion at Billions Tower. After rescuing Billy Billions, he encountered the culprits: Two masked and armored men, equipped with high-tech laser rifles, had broken into Billy's vault in search of alien technology. Before teleporting out, one of the thieves mentioned using the tech to power something called "Prime." Could the alien tech be some sort of power source? And what is this "Prime?" For now, however, we will be rejoining Kenny and Pulu as they arrive at the Plumber Academy.


Kenny and Pulu were shoving their way through a crowd of people, fighting to try and get off of the massive spaceship. The ship had docked inside of a large, open bay area. The space was relatively empty – aside from the huge spaceship, of course – with a few small boxes and pieces of machinery along the outer edges. Various aliens were sent flying to the ground by the impatient duo. Not looking where they were going, they slammed facefirst into the backside of a large, hulking figure, stopping them dead in their tracks.

"WATCH IT, MAGGOTS!" the figure bellowed, spinning on it's heels and glaring at the pair. Judging by the figure's deep and intimidating voice, the boy's assumed it was a man. The alien stood about 7 feet tall, and rippled from head to toe with nothing but muscle. He had dark blue and scaly skin that appeared rough to the touch. Pulu would later describe this man's superpower as "having punches so strong that the threat of them is enough to knock you out."

"S-s-sorry…" Kenny gulped nervously. Looking to his side, he saw an equally frightened Pulu. "We didn't mean to bump into you." It was then than Kenny noticed what the alien was wearing. He was wearing what looked to be an advanced black and white spacesuit. It featured various gadgets on it's belt, along with the staple red badge on the belt buckle.

"Are you one of the other cadets in training?" Pulu questioned.

"DON'T YOU DARE EVER INSULT ME LIKE THAT AGAIN, VEGGIE BOY! MAGISTER SPLAY IS NOT NO CADET!" the Magister's muscles flexed as he yelled, the veins in his neck appearing ready to explode in an instant.

"M-magister?" Kenny whispered as the Magister walked away, very clearly terrified by Magister Splay.

"Pfft. Don't be afraid of some lame old meathead," Pulu laughed. "Besides, it's not like he's going to be our instructor for our training."


"LISTEN UP MAGGOTS!" Magister Splay shouted, demanding the cadets' attention. Kenny, Pulu, and every other cadet were lined up as the Magister prepared to lay into them like a drill sergeant. None of the cadets were currently wearing their uniform. Instead, they were all wearing what they had on at arrival (which for some, was a lack of clothing altogether). Kenny and Pulu were stood toward the end of the line, as they had been amongst the last to arrive at the debriefing.

"MY NAME IS MAGISTER URGUTTZ! SPLAY URGUTTZ!" the muscled creature bellowed. Hearing his full name only intimidated the cadets more. "DISOBEY MY ORDERS, AND YOU WILL FIND OUT WHY THEY CALL ME THAT!" At that threat, a cadet in the center shrunk backwards and out of the line. Magister Splay took a step toward the terrified cadet and motioned with his finger for them to retake their place. "HAVE I GIVEN YOU A REASON TO ME AFRAID, SHRIMP?!" he shouted. The cadet nervously shook it's head. "I DIDN'T THINK SO! NOW, STEP BACK IN LINE… BEFORE I MAKE YOU STEP BACK IN LINE!" he finished, cracking his knuckles as he did so. The cadet gulped, before apprehensively retaking it's spot.

Having made an example of a poor, terrified soul, the Magister directed his attention back to the entire group. "I WILL NOT REPEAT MYSELF, SO LISTEN CLOSELY MAGGOTS! YOU WILL NOT SPEAK TO ME UNLESS SPOKEN TO! WHEN I GIVE ORDERS, YOU ARE TO FOLLOW WITHOUT QUESTION! YOU WILL SHOW ME RESPECT, OR I WILL SHOW YOU MY FISTS! DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?!""

"Sir! Yes Sir!" a majority of the cadets echoed, although Kenny noticed that Pulu had remained silent. In fact, his friend seemed unaffected by Magister Splay's intimidation tactics. Kenny made a mental note to ask him about it later.

"WHEN I DISMISS YOU, YOU WILL EACH TAKE YOUR PLACEMENT EXAMINATION! THIS WILL DETERMINE THE TRAINING COURSES THAT YOU WILL BEGIN IN! SOME OF YOU WILL FAIL EVERY PART OF THIS EXAMINATION! I WILL LAUGH AT YOU, BUT YOU WILL NOT BE KICKED OUT OF THE ACADEMY! ANY QUESTIONS?!" As soon as Magister Splay finished, at least a dozen hands shot into the air. Staying true to character, however, he blatantly ignored all of them. "GOOD! DISMISSED!"

As soon as the word "dismissed" rolled off of the Magister's tongue, the cadets quickly began to scatter, racing off to begin their examinations.


SECOND AUTHOR'S NOTE: HOLY CRAP! I just kind of stopped thinking about this completely. It's been nearly a year since I've touched this project, but let's try and bring it back! There may be an inconsistency or two within the next couple of chapters, but I apologize for that. I'm going to be ending this chapter here, and immediately going to work on the next one. Moving forward, the primary focus will be on Kenny and company, with the occasional Ben-centric parts/chapters scattered in there.

I had certain ideas planned, however much of that is going to be scrapped/changed in order to produce a better product for you guys. I will probably look to shorten chapters to around 2000 words each, rather than 3000, just to try and release them a tad bit quicker. On a similar note, I'm not going to be promising any sort of publishing schedule – you'll get chapters when I have a worthy product ready. Cheers!
