Before we start I just want to tell y'all something that happened when I realized the second chapter. One comment, in particular, said they were not going to stick around because it was now a harem. I'm fine with that if you don't like the harem, part that is completely understandable. Which is exactly what I said to him and added 'it isn't about the harem though'. This story mainly focuses on Ben 10 in the young Justice universe. There are no lemons, neither will it have 'Sex slaves' as he put it. With that said he immediately responded with a bunch of messages that were insulting and started harassing me about how 'I should be ashamed of myself' or 'how I'm pathetic' and then he started to treat it as if the world was ending and acting like a child saying 'this always happens to me' and blah blah blah. He kept this up so much it became quite literally harassment, especially when I tried to close the conversation multiple times, but he wanted the final word. In the end I blocked him but I still want to tell you all two things.
1. This is my story, if you don't like it leave a comment and go. Depending how I think of it I might even improve my story from it. If anyone hasn't noticed this is my first story, I try to take as much criticism as I can and improve the story from it. Don't start harassing me or any other author just because you don't like the story.
2. This is fanfiction, it's not real life, it's not resulting in much importance, and all I'm trying to make is a fun read for people that stumble across this story. Don't take it too seriously, if you don't like it just don't read it. The guy I was talking to made it seem like it was the end of the world and acted like a child that couldn't get the toy he wanted. Reading fanfiction is nothing to be worked up about, so while you can be disappointed you don't have to treat it as if you're about to die.
And finally just to add something, I'm not going to say I was completely mature about it. Because after he sent me all the insulting messages I wrote back to him, already not something you should do. But I didn't play his game of insulting him. I disproved his claims then told him off, so I handled it somewhat well, I shouldn't have written back to him at all. And then there's that part of me that just wishes I flipped him off. Either way if that happens to you be careful, block them immediately. Don't take that kind of abuse.
Anyway, now that 'life lesson' time is over, let's get to the Q&A!
AmbientRain0: Right? There are some harems out there where the guys get like 20 girls but they don't even last to the point where they get the 2nd girl since they realize that they made too many girls and can't continue the story. To be honest, any story that can go on with more than like 7 women in a harem and make it past about 13 decent chapters, is a great story in my book.
Xenozip: Exactly, thank you! I don't want to trash on the other fics out there, even though they keep on making these mistakes! I also just realized the way people put it in their fanfics it's like the Nemetrix. Like they download or hack the information (again impossible) from the Omnitrix/Ultimatrix. But that still means that the villains would need to acquire the DNA samples of the aliens in the first place. Just another little nit pic.
Pa7adox: I've already thought of the 5.
Sakra95: Yeah it seems like all of them have a little over a decade of hero experience. Other than that they are all pretty weak. Not revealing anything here but there might be a certain chapter where we see who's stronger...
Wahid Alam: Trust me I hate those harem fics. Cause it can all be wrapped up to 'I wake up, walk around, fuck, go to sleep and repeat' trust me this is nothing like that. There are not even lemons so that won't be a problem.
Guest: I've already thought of how it will go. Basically, I'm not going to reveal how but after the 5-year time skip Ben's watch will have the setting in Omniverse where it doesn't change him to the one he wants but instead what he needs. At that point, he will have the Kryptonian and Martian DNA. Although again that won't come till the 5 year time skip.
B10H: Thanks, my one goal was to make sure I got all the Omnitrix functions right since all the fanfics happen to get most of them wrong. It's the most powerful device in the universe, of course, it can block hacking and all sorts of crap like that. And there will be a chapter where we find out who's stronger. If you watch the show you can probably guess when. But let's just say there will be a Ben vs Justice League situation in the future.
The Moist Crusader: I'm making sure to follow in line with both shows on its takes on girlfriends or ships. Young Justice follows the stories of the sidekicks with only a little bit here and there with ships, stuff like kissing or something is at a minimum and besides getting angry when their significant other is hurt in a fight it doesn't really play into the action parts. I'm sure everyone here came to see the Ben 10 and Young Justice story. The harem thing will NOT be the main focus. Trust me I've seen the exact same pattern, and it gets clearer each time I see it. I'm going to try and make it so that is not the case here.
Making this clear once again the main focus is not the harem! But If you have seen the supporting characters, you can probably guess some girls in the harem are Miss Martian, Artemis, Zatanna, the fourth girl I leave for a surprise, but I'm still thinking who should be the final girl.
I am thinking about a poll but I don't know how to make one. I'm a bit green with this stuff. So I'll just tell you the choices for now then I'll see If I can put up a poll. Wonder Girl (Donna), Wonder Girl (Cassie), or Huntress (Helena Wayne). Tell me which one you want for a final girl.
(Not Supergirl, you can literally find a whole bunch of Supergirl x Ben stories, unfortunately, all follow practically the exact same premises. Ben loses everyone he loves, runs into hawk people, rescues the Justice League says their name is stupid, saves the day, doesn't want to be a hero anymore, lives on the Kent farm for a while, falls in love with Supergirl, and so on. As you can see I'm fed up with a lot of stories copying and pasting the same exact story. And that generic 'Ben loses everything' trend, it worked the first few times, now I feel like it's a bit overused.)
Now onto the chapter.
Nevada Desert, Las Vegas: August 3rd, 11:30
Green lasers shot from the sky as the plant alien known as Swampfire ran for his life shooting multiple balls of fire back in the direction of the lasers. Some of the lasers were actually able to hit the alien in his torso ripping right through as if it were nothing but, thankfully plants and vines that were the aliens' flesh and guts stitched themselves back together until it was as good as new.
Swampfire looked behind him to see his two targets flying at him at a very fast speed. They were the two Green Lanterns of Earth, Hal Jordan, and John Stewart. Hal posted a smug grin on his face while John maintained a serious look.
Both kept firing lasers from their power rings that kept shooting through the alien. All of them connected the body but none seemed to phase Ben, that is until one hit Ben's right wrist causing it to tear off.
Both Lanterns stopped their fire when they saw the lost limp fall to the ground. They weren't sure what to do at that exact moment, a million thoughts running through their head as this newest training session with the shapeshifter suddenly turned. But all their thoughts were interrupted by the boy in question.
"Oh no…" Swampfire says dramatically, a smirk ever present on his face until he shot another fireball out of his left palm that collided with Hal's chest. A green vine then sprouted from the lost limb and attached itself back to the arm in mere seconds. "Suckers!" In the blink of an eye, Swampfire jumped off the ground and punched John in the face making, the Lantern sprawled on the ground before landing face-first on the rock and dirt.
"Urg!" John groans, bringing a hand to his head. "Man, this form packs a punch."
"No kidding, the kid's ruthless! Let's kick it up a notch." Hal offered while John shook his head in agreement.
Even if he acted more mature than Hal, John was also prideful like him, a little too prideful for his own good at times. So you can imagine he wasn't quite happy about it getting trampled on so easily by a kid. John nodded quickly as both Lanterns shot up into the air like bullets.
"Are we done holding back now? Good!" Swampfire said with a large feline smirk taking over his face. Both of his hands ignited into a fire and shot the balls of flames at the two.
Hal quickly created a green barrier in front of both of them blocking the attack, then he changed it into a giant bazooka, the missile inside made a loud screeching sound until it was launched at the boy. Swampfire immediately fired a torrent of flames that collided with the missile making it explode. Before Swampfire could attack once again an onslaught of bullets started to cloud his vision. Looking in the direction of where the bullets were coming from, he could make out the faint scene of John firing at him with a green giant Gatling gun.
He shot his arms up blocking his face and eyes on reflex knowing it would do no damage to him anyway. "Stop! That tickles!"
"How's this for 'tickle'." The voice of Hal barely could be made out from the loud wavy fire from the Gatling gun assaulting his ears. But still, he managed to hear it and followed the echo from the voice and saw Hal with one giant rammer people would use in construction sights.
The head of the rammer smacked down, shaking the ground as if an earthquake had started. The rammer lifted up and then smashed the ground again and repeated the process at a breakneck speed.
The rocks and boulders that were around the deserted training area they were using shook, some even breaking apart into splinters. The ground crumbled and violently started to break as dust and dirt piled on each blocking the ground from either of the Green Lanterns' vision.
"Did you get him?" John asked, his back turned to a large green vine growing out of the ground.
"Of course I did! I-" Hal was cut off as two fireballs connected to his chest and sent him flying back into a boulder and breaking it completely on impact.
John looked back and saw Ben waving at him as if they were old-time friends, and then saw the plaint alien throw another two fireballs and threw them at him.
John quickly made a green barrier blocking the attack but it quickly shattered not being able to take much abuse. "Ok, that's it!" John says clenching his fist until suddenly he heard someone communicating to him on his comms. A quick sigh escaped his lips before he looked at Swampfire. "We're going to have to call it quits today."
Ben raised a brow as a sudden green light erupted around him allowing him to change back to human. "Why?"
"Hal and I are needed, something about a robot terrorizing the city or something," John states as if it was the most normal response ever.
"So… the usual, huh?" Ben says with a smirk.
John gives him a rare facial expression that he almost never gives to anyone. A simple smile. "Yeah, the usual. Come on Hal!"
Hal got up from the ground looking a bit dazed, he must have hit his head hard since it seemed like his eyes were spinning. "Oh man, can anyone get the number of the truck that hit me?"
"Come on, we're needed," John says as he starts to float in the air.
"Wait," The sudden call takes John's attention to Ben. "Do you need me for this?"
"Probably not… like you said the 'usual' it's nothing the League can't handle." Both Lanterns waved goodbye before taking off into the sky.
Ben smiled slightly, it was good to have the two Lanterns around. They could not only take a hit but were pretty good fighters as well. Unfortunately, no matter how hard of a hit they could take Ben still had to hold back slightly.
Ben shrugged slightly then transformed into Jetray since there was no Zeta-Tube near his location and ran off into the distance.
Downtown, Metropolis; August 3rd, 10:07 AM.
A bus filled to the rim with children leisurely made its way down the road and onto the upcoming bridge; each child was ecstatic for their first field trip, screaming and laughing as the driver smiled. It wasn't the best job but he enjoyed it regardless.
Suddenly, one of the support beams to the bridge bent and warped from decades of carelessness, the asphalt began to crumble without the support just before the bus passed over it. Two massive steel wires holding the bridge together snapped and fell to the ground, shattering the cars ahead of the bus.
The driver screeched to a halt as the bus went over the curb and hit the guard-rail, all seemed relatively safe until an incoming six-teen wheeler honked its intense bull-horn as it too attempted to break, however; with its size and speed, it didn't make the stop in time knocking into the bus and pushing it over the guard-rail.
From above in the highest-penthouse level of Wayne Enterprises stood Bruce Wayne, looking down on the incident he frowned. He removed the head to a bust sitting on his desk pressing the button beneath; a drawer popped open in front of him releasing his armor prepared to act until he heard the sound barrier break.
Just as all hope was lost and people assumed they'd hear the mortality report on the news that evening; Superman came to their rescue, flying underneath the bridge and using his heat-vision to seal wounds in the structure.
Unbeknownst to either of them, Superboy came leaping from the city landing on the bridge with a loud crash. His landing caused the entire bridge to shake further but Superman below compensated for the extra force.
Superboy began pulling cars and trucks off the edge of death but, as he got to the bus, he gripped its bumper and pulled with all of his strength. He would have succeeded too if not for the bumper ripping off completely, sending the bus off the bridge; he tossed the bumper aside, "No!" he shouted looking over the edge to find nothing in the water.
Superman came floating from below holding the bus above his head whilst glaring down at Superboy; placing the bus down safely, the two confronted one another.
"I almost had that!" he shouted angrily as Superman didn't let his scowl fade.
"Almost isn't good enough, your landing could have destabilized the bridge as it is," Superman replied, folding his arms.
"It didn't."
"But, it could have. We don't know the limits of your powers."
Superboy looked away, rubbing the back of his neck, "Well, maybe you could help me with that some-"
In the middle of his sentence, Superman answered a com-link distress signal from Green Arrow, "Superman. Wait, Arrow, slow down what's attacking?" He looked back over at Superboy and then back towards the ocean, "No, I'm definitely available, coordinates? Got it, on my way."
"Sorry, Superboy, duty calls," he turned and took off reaching safe distances before going super-sonic.
Superboy narrowed his eyes at the lack of interest Superman showed to him; the lack of caring at all about him or how he lives. He tightened his fist and turned to leap away.
Mount Justice, Happy Harbor
Jetray had made it to Happy Harbor in a few short minutes, about 5 give or take. The alien of course being so fast that traveling from one part of the country to the other is a breeze.
"Recognized Omni B-10."
Ben walked out of the zeta tube looking over Miss Martian and Robin watching Aqualad and Kid Flash play a holographic form of hockey. A pretty unfair game considering one had way faster reflexes than the other, it showed since Kid was absolutely flooring the Atlantain in the game.
Robin then looked back at him with a smirk present on his face. "Omni?" He questioned, it was the first time he tried out the new alias.
"Bad? Good? Figured it was better than my old alias, and any other name I could come up with…" Ben said, scratching the back of his head.
"What's wrong with your old alias?" Miss Martian asked.
"Ben 10… there isn't really a point to having an alias when it's just your name and a number. It worked because my cousin and Grandpa just referred to me as my alien names, but I can't just expect you all to do that… plus this watch doesn't even just have 10 any more. I like it…"
"Sure, if you don't mind getting called 'All' just in a different language all the time." Kid responded he then hit the puck to Aqualad.
"I don't think you're allowed to talk, Mr. Kid Flash." Ben retorted with Robin laughing loudly as Miss Martian giggled to where Kid looked over at Ben and glare slightly but left himself open to Aqualad who firefly hit the puck into Kid's goal and finally scored a point.
"Hey!" Kid says to Aqualad who smirks.
"You were distracted…" He mocks a little until they hear the sound of the zeta tube once again.
Superboy then walked through the teleporter and into the room, he was absolutely fuming and walked directly through the holographic hockey-table causing it to disperse; he attempted to leave the room when a voice quickly caught the group's attention.
"Everyone gather around for a mission briefing," Batman announced as they hopped to their feet and surrounded him along with Martian Manhunter, Green Arrow, Black Canary, and Red Tornado by his side. Batman pulled up a large holo-screen in front of them, "Six hours ago, a new menace attacked Green Arrow and Black Canary; the attacker was capable of studying then duplicating the powers and abilities of its opponents," He paused as the holo-screen displayed footage of a robot of some-kind decimating the League one by one, "Arrow called in reinforcements which nearly proved disastrous as our foe gained more and more power with each new combatant."
Kid Flash gawked, "Woah, one guy with the powers of the entire League?"
"Now that is not the usual…" Ben commented.
Bruce turned to the team, "In the end, it took eight Leaguers four hours to defeat and dismantle the android."
"An android?" Robin spoke up, "Who built it, Tio-Morrow?"
Batman flashed a short but brief smile, "Good guess, Robin, but Red Tornado doesn't think so."
Martian Manhunter spoke up, not taking his eyes off of the clip of the fight he'd just taken part in, "The technology bears the signature of Professor Ivo."
Aqualad narrowed his eyes, "Ivo? But, Ivo's dead."
"Or so we all hoped," Canary stated rubbing the wound on her shoulder which was obviously inflicted by the android.
Batman spoke up again, "To ensure this threat is permanently neutralized we are sending two trucks containing the android's remains to two separate STAR labs facilities in Boston and New York for further evaluation."
They all watched as the map displayed on-screen routes to Boston and New York with Gotham in the middle, "We are taking every precaution; we're sending four additional decoy trucks to create confusion in case Ivo or anyone tries to recover the parts. The team will split into two undercover squads to safe-guard the two real trucks," Batman finished as Kid pumped his fist into the air with a loud shout.
"Yes! Road trip!"
Tension suddenly filled the air as Superboy glared up at Batman, "So, now we take out your trash too?"
Batman raised his brow, not even giving the comment a second thought, "You had something better to do? Be my guest," he turned and walked away from the team and towards the Zeta-Tubes, "We deploy in one hour." He finished as he was whisked away at light speed.
"Don't poke the sleeping Bat or it'll bite you," Robin stated coyly jabbing Superboy's arm, "Just a word of advice," he smiled as Superboy grunted and turned away.
Ben perked up at the sound of buzzing coming from the pocket of his signature jacket, after looking at the screen he nonchalantly turned around, "Coordinates received; we're on our way."
Litchfield County; August 3rd; 2:17 PM
Eight trucks had been lined up with the real parts to the android being undisclosed to anyone without League access; Ben, M'gann, Robin, Superboy, Kid Flash, and Aqualad were all prepared on color-coded motorcycles hidden behind a layer of bushes and trees.
Superman took a quick glance at the team but darted his eyes away when he made eye contact with Superboy; the entire League was overseeing the shipment and discretion was of the utmost importance.
"STAR Boston is a go."
"STAR Manhattan is a go."
Green Arrow nodded towards Superman who floated up and gave the signal for all the trucks to begin their journey; Ben, Superboy, and Robin, followed one truck whilst M'gann, Aqualad, and Kid Flash tailed the other going in opposite directions.
The trip was long and boring as the team continued to tail their assigned truck and so they decided talking wouldn't hurt, "Do you think Superboy's okay?" M'gann asked as Kid and Aqualad turned to respond to her; "I didn't read his mind I swear but anger poured off of him in waves..." she turned her head back to the road as the communication link in her helmet spoke up clearly.
"He kinda has daddy issues and trusts me you don't wanna touch that with a ten-foot-" Kid was interrupted by Aqualad who speed-matched them and looked over to her.
"What he means to say is that Superboy needs to work through his relationship with Superman on his own and helping him will only seem like an insult in his eyes;" His words caused M'gann to smile as he had explained it perfectly.
"Aqualad you're so wise; if Ben wasn't around I'm sure you would have been the next best leader," M'gann complimented and Kaldur simply looked back to the road.
"Ben is the obvious choice, he seems so much more experienced than us. Which he is. Him being in that Null Void place, from what he described it was, would have made a normal man go crazy." Kaldur looked back to her and continued, "However, he also seems to be hiding a bit of pain himself."
"Well, I doubt finding out he could never see his friends and family again wasn't hard. But he acts so carefree." Kid commented.
"He's really something huh?" M'gann says with a blush that was hidden by her helmet. Aqualad, however, found the meaning.
"Yes, he is."
With Ben
Superboy, Robin, and Ben were in the midst of a very dull drive tailing their truck as Robin decided to make conversation to pass the time but it wasn't very entertaining, "So if armed is the opposite of disarming… is 'aster' the opposite of disaster? You see, instead of things going wrong, they go right!"
"I will never understand your need to butcher the human language." Ben sighed. Superboy simply grunted in response, being already furious with Superman did not help the stupidity of Robin's time-killing conversational piece.
The teen-Kryptonian revved his cycle and sped towards the truck, away from the conversation.
"Someone is not feeling the aster," Robin commented revealing a smirk on Ben's face; he sped closer to Robin before responding.
"I dunno, I feel like that's the rational response to someone neglecting you."
Robin scoffed, "Superman's as morally right as they come; he just needs time to adjust to having a teenage son without ever conceiving, I mean, it's a big deal," Ben looked back at Superboy who was likely listening at this point.
"Yeah, I get that, but he can't at least check by every once and a while? Or even ask about Superboy? I mean is he really even his son in a sense?"
"What do you mean?" Robin asks with a raised brow.
"Well when I transform into Ditto or Echo Echo, I would kind of assume my clones as more of brothers, not sons… I feel like all of you put the mantle of 'son' on Superboy… am I wrong?"
"Yeah, that's true we only assumed he was his 'son' when we broke into Cadmus and first saw him. I guess it's really how they look at it though."
"Yeah well we heard how everyone including Superman looks at it," Ben commented driving a little further from Robin while muttering, "Although, I wonder how Superboy does…"
Superboy himself was listening in on the conversation while thinking over their words. Ben's words especially, out of all of them someone who can make clones of himself, and additionally is a clone would probably know what he is going through.
The boy seemed right, he never really considered Superman as his father. Whether that was from the neglect or his personal opinion he wasn't too sure. However, the words 'brother' more suited him. He didn't want a father, he didn't need a father. He just wanted someone to look up to.
Ben looked over at the clone and could see him in deep thought even from the helmet blocking his face. He quickly sped up slightly and caught up to the boy, and placed a hand on his shoulder. He knew the boy had been listening and was coming to his own conclusion. But Ben also knew that the thing that was bothering him now, would eat away at him later.
Superboy looked at Ben with a confused look. "What?"
"I'll make sure to get you two in the same room so you guys can hash it out. You at least deserve to talk to each other for a couple of minutes at least." Superboy's eyes widened and nodded a quick thanks before looking back at the truck.
Suddenly, dozens of simian-like robots sprung from the fields with green neon lights and a black exterior, they also released a loud cackling giggle which could have driven a normal insane given time. They flew towards the truck and latched themselves to it as Superboy immediately ditched his bike and flung himself onto the vehicle, swatting the drones off of it one by one and obviously taking out pent-up rage on them.
"Robin to Team, we're under attack!" Robin yelled into his communication device implanted into his helmet; however, he only received static and loud thrashing on the other end.
"Yea, we know!" Kid Flash responded as his truck was also under attack as the thrashing only got louder.
Robin pressed a button on the handlebar of his motorcycle causing the high-tech bike to transform and one of the wheels to become an independent helicopter-like drone shooting down monkeys. It was short-lived as the annoying droids quickly overwhelmed and brought it to the ground in a fiery explosion with Robin only narrowly leaping to the truck and using tomahawks to cut down droids beside his enraged teammate.
"Okay," Ben dialed up a hologram on his Omnitrix and smiled, "Let's see how these metal monsters are like a little-" He slapped the face-plate and a man-sized blue-chimp took his place on the bike with multiple arms and a long tail to boot, "Spidermonkey," the arachnid-chimp ditched his bike and caused it to veer out of control into the corn where it exploded.
When Spidermonkey landed he used his tail to net several of the drones together with his natural webbing which he swung around into two others currently attacking Robin and sending all of them crashing into the street at 80 mph. Superboy crushed two of them with his bare hands by smashing their skulls together and tossing them aside,
"There's too many!" he shouted as he stomped another and swatted two more out of the air. Robin shoved a bird-a-range into one of their eyes but it pulled away and flew towards the side of the truck instead; Spidermonkey caught it with his webs and yanked it towards him where he did a flying spin-kick that destroyed it completely.
"How are we doing?" Robin asked as he kicked another of the drone monkeys off the truck.
Superboy grabbed one of them and restrained it by its skull but, was attempting to use his x-ray vision to see inside of it when it fired an emerald beam directly into his iris causing him to crush it and scream in agony; he held his face as three drones worked in tandem to kick him off the truck and into the street.
"Well," Spidermonkey used his multiple limbs to knock the three drones into the ground and under the tires causing them to be crushed, "Our heaviest hitter just got his ass kicked off the truck, you tell me?"
The overwhelming number of them allowed the drones to split into two teams; one to distract the heroes and the others that weren't fighting to extract the cargo. A small group of four monkeys used their lasers to cut a hole through the side of the truck where men with rifles waited to fire off their weapons; the bullets did little to nothing as the monkeys retrieved the case of android parts before taking off out of the truck and into the distance above the cornfield. The truck slowly came to a stop on the side of the road where the heroes jumped off to reunite with the ditched Kryptonian.
Superboy stood rubbing his eyes furiously and growling as his vision adjusted; he stared into the distance blinking rapidly and shaking his head. He tightened his stance and jumped after them into the nearby cornfields. Spidermonkey slapped the dial on his chest and transformed back to normal looking out into the field; he pressed a finger to his ear, "Superboy, radio your position, let us help you!"
"Don't want any!" He shouted back pulling the com-link from his ear.
"Superboy?" Robin asked, getting static once again, "I think he ditched his comm."
"Ya think?" Ben pulled up another hologram before slapping the Omnitrix appearing as a five-foot crimson and yellow sting-ray pterodactyl; "Jetray!" he shouted before turning back to his teammate.
"I'll go after him, you guys find a way to catch up with us!" He took off into the air and in a few seconds went a Mach 2 catching up to the clone. Robin stepped back and looked at the trail of destroyed drones littering the street for half a mile; he grabbed a bot and pried its skull open with a bird-a-rang.
"These drones obviously knew which trucks to attack, I mean we would have heard if the decoy trucks were attacked by now; obviously they have some sort of GPS on the Amazo parts," he quickly pulled a cord from his gauntlet and plugged it into the monkey's skull.
Robin spoke through the coms, "I'm tracking the monkeys now, it looks like they're converging on…" he paused for a moment, "Gotham City."
"Superboy and I are the closest; send Kid and M'gann our way and the rest of you meet us there," Jetray ordered as he narrowed in on Superboy's location.
"Roger that," The entire team said in unison over the com-link.
After almost thirty minutes of consecutive flying/jumping, the two found themselves approaching a train which was turning a corner when Jetray landed and reverted back into Ben with a shimmering emerald light which shuned in the darkness of the setting sun; Superboy landed next to him with a loud thud denting the metal-car below. Causing Ben to slightly stagger on his feet.
"I saw them fly into this one here less than a few minutes ago," He announced having watched them with his enhanced sight; he shoved his hand through the roof and carved a hole into the titanium opening it up for them both to drop into.
The annoying cackle of the monkey drones filled their ears as they turned to find over two dozen of the drones surrounding one slightly short ginger man who sported a button-up white shirt, red bow-tie, and suspenders from his long pants. As they entered, he turned around to face them, "Oh… hello," he said calmly.
'Wait! This guy is the supposed dangerous dead-man?' Ben asked himself as it seemed Superboy had the same feeling.
Superboy scoffed, "You're Ivo? I'm officially whelmed."
"You're one to talk; now since when does the big-blue boy scout have a brat?" The man asked as Superboy tightened his fist in anger, responding coldly.
"He doesn't."
"If you say so," Ivo rolled his eyes, he could practically hear the family drama in the response. "And what the heck are you? Huh."
"Omni," Ben replied proudly, puffing out his chest "And we're here to take you in."
"And to you, two newcomers I ask, have you met my Mobile Optimal Neural Quotient Infiltrators?" Superboy growled as each of the MONQI's sitting idly behind him suddenly leaped at the heroes as they reacted quicker than the doctor expected; Superboy bashed each and every one of them with his fists alone. Ben didn't feel as if he should step in thinking he would just get in the way.
"Ehh, and after all the effort I put into coming up with an acronym for monkey," Ivo turned around and pressed a few buttons on a console not far from him.
As they finished destroying the annoying drones they heard metallic clanking pressing against the floor, "Access: Captain Atom," from nowhere an energy blast of some kind struck Superboy in the chest sending him back first into the wall.
Ben fiddled with the Omnitrix before he turned into Four Arms but was immediately given the same treatment as Superboy. His body now being bigger made an even bigger hole through the cart and his body slammed into Superboy.
Both then slipped into a fighting stance, but backed slightly at the menacing android approached them, "If Dr. Ivo's magnificent MONQI's don't float your boat, then perhaps my amazing AMAZO will better suit you," he paused as his android stepped into the light fully revealing itself in a humanoid shirtless form with green pants built on him; his thin head of orange hair and elf-like ears didn't take away from his menacing crimson stare of death, "Or better slay you..." the mad-man chuckled.
Superboy stood up, wiping his lip from the blood dripping from his mouth, "Give it your best shot," he stated confidently.
"Please," Ivo started, "My android has the strength of Superman, what chance do you and that freak have?"
Superboy snarled and rushed the android as Amazo effortlessly blocked, deflected, or countered every strike the boy of steel sent; He managed to land one shot to Amazo's face as it spun at a 90-degree angle for a moment, Superboy felt this was his chance and moved for a second strike. Amazo's neck snapped back into place and caught the fist in his palm without effort to Superboy's major surprise.
"Oh sorry, did that strike a nerve? Amazo, strike a few more."
Four Arms grabbed Amazo's wrist with his top left hand then delivered a fierce uppercut with his right, knocking the android back into the cart and slamming into the floor.
"Take him!" Ivo said as his MONQI's used the small jets on their back to launch at Four Arms, then they extended their arms and wrapped them around each of his four limbs and propelled off into the distance with Four Arms as their captive.
The android went back to his feet and was almost sucker-punched by Superboy but he swiped him away, Amazo then slammed his fist in Superboy's abdomen then wordlessly uppercut him in the jaw making the boy bounce off the ceiling and land right into a left-straight that pushed him out of the train car and into a building the train-tracks juxtaposed.
A loud boom and crash were heard by the android as he saw the red four-armed alien approaching him.
"Access: Black Canary," the android's jaw unhinged, losing a sonic discharge that put that caught Four Arms in the air and made him plug his ears with two of his hands. The sudden loud scream threw him off his balance as he just lunged towards the android, "Access: Superman," A fist flew fast through the air knocking the alien in the face. Amazo grabbed one of the four-armed alien's wrists. His upper body then spun around like a top. He then let go and tossed him towards the ceiling through Gotham Academy.
Ivo smiled as Amazo looked to his owner for orders, shrugging without a second thought, "Finish them: priority alpha."
A green light engulfed the room as Ben and Superboy stood up and tossed papers and desks off of themselves; "I always hated school."
With Robin
Robin sped towards Gotham on his still functioning cycle as they just entered City Limits, he had changed from his cycling suit into his uniform, tracking the GPS of the Amazo-parts still with the holo-screen projected from his cycle.
As he sped by, a blur slowed down next to him which turned out to be Kid Flash in his bright yellow and red friction armor, "You changed too, huh?" Robin noted as the speedster smiled.
"You know it," he announced proudly, "I feel naked in my civvies; you still tracking the android parts?"
"Preach," Robin shouted as he stared at the GPS, "At first they were converging on the east-side but, now…" he paused for a moment as his eyes widened at the results, "Dude, they're at my school!"
With Ben
Wildvine flew through the air of the hallway slamming into a glass case of trophies as shards fell across his body and a picture of Dick Grayson holding a large acrobatic-championship trophy fell into his lap as well, "Ugh," he tossed the picture aside and analyzed Amazo with his emerald pupil, "This thing is really messing with me!"
Superboy dropped from above with a fist prepared to pummel the droid who looked up immediately, "Access: Martian Manhunter," Becoming intangible the fist flew through him. He reformed his density and threw a round-house kick at the Kryptonian boy's head slamming him through two classroom walls with strength equal to Superman's.
Ben's hands grew into large vines that attached to Amazo's arms.
"Superman." Laser vision poured from the robot's eyes burning off the vines as if they were nothing. Wildvine grunted, Batman had warned him in the case of the Amazo being put back together he should stay from switching aliens too freakingly and try to use weaker aliens. That way he could deal with it easier. Helpful information, however, when he already had the power of the League, not using any heavy hitters was making this way harder than it should have been.
Amazo sent red lasers from his eyes and struck Wildvine in the chest, having him roar out in pain and his body catching fire instantly. The android walked up to the alien getting ready to finish the fight but was then struck by Superboy in the head who knocked him into the classroom beside them.
Wildvine slowly reached for the Omnitrix symbol on his chest and transformed into an alien made entirely of rocky magma and fire. "Heatblast!" The alien held his hands out getting ready to fire but couldn't thanks to the boy of steel still trying to fight the android. "Superboy out of the way-" The boy in question suddenly flew past him, getting flung through several classroom walls. "That works."
He then sent a torrent of flames underneath the android destroying the ground and sending it one floor below him. He was about to go check on Superboy before the robot voice piped up again, ironically sending a chill down his spine.
"Red Tornado,"
Heatblast sent several fireballs at the android but before they hit, Amazo formed a funnel of wind that engulfed the hallway both putting out the flames and causing Heatblast to fly across the room hitting random lockers.
Superboy came from behind wrapping his arms around Amazo's neck putting him in a headlock, "Superman," the android deadpanned as he grabbed the boy of steel by the shoulders and super-speed spun his robotic body in a 360-degree manner releasing him and flinging him into a row of lockers.
He adjusted his body and grabbed the alien by the neck and analyzed him,
"Access: Heatblast."
"Ah, crap," Ben could only utter those two words before being blasted through two classrooms and a science-lab by a wave of intense fire spewing from the android's hand.
Superboy sprinted from behind at super-speeds attempting to punch the android in the back but, receiving an enhanced elbow to the face, being grabbed and punted across the hall and into a stairwell.
Heatblast then sprung on his feet and charged towards the android. "Access: Heatblast." Two giant fireballs were sent at the alien but the alien in question simply held out his hands as well. The android first thought he was going for a counterattack but it never came. This time when the fireballs connected they were diminished and absorbed into his large palms.
"What? Didn't know I could do that?" Heatblast then fired his own attack that hit the android in the eyes and blinded him. "Now Superboy!" Superboy jumped over the droid and immediately hammered down a double-fisted sucker punch to the android's jaw.
"Access: Superman." Another punch was delivered to the Kryptonian clone until the robot turned its attention back to Ben. "Access: Flash," Amazo sped towards him and uppercut the magma alien into the wall before following up by using the momentum of his rush to slam his fist harder into his gut and continue with a rapid barrage of left and right hooks to the chest. Heatblast quickly grabbed the two fists and tried to melt them off but they were soon taken back and launched into his chest making Heatblast fall to his knees and revert back into Ben.
Just then, a blur of speed flew in through double doors and sped beside his leader in a heartbeat.
"So, introduce me to your new friend!" Kid joked as he folded his arms in confidence.
"You're looking at Amazo; he's pretty tough I'll tell you that much," Ben gripped his chest in slight pain but powered through to slap the Omnitrix. "Jetray!"
Wally lowered his goggles and sped through the court running literal circles around the android.
"Access: Superman," the android stuck its arm out and Wally slammed right into it knocking the wind from his stomach simultaneously, "Black Canary," the monotone voice was beginning to get old as he side-kicked Wally tumbling across the court anti-climatically.
His jaw then unhinged as a loud screech made Jetray cringe and cover his ears.
"Superman." Before Jetray could recover from the attack, Amazo grabbed Jetray by the wing and wrapped his arms around him, squeezing him. Jetray let out a cry of pain as he felt his beck was slightly starting to break. His vision began to blur as he was prepared to pass out. Suddenly, something caught on Amazo's radar causing him to turn his neck 90-degrees instantly, "Martian Manhunter," a green arrow flew directly through Amazo's density shifting head; this also allowed Ben who was being held to also slip through his grasp.
Jetray quickly groaned as his eyes lit up green but in truth, it should have been red from rage. He took off in the air, getting distance between the two. He growled as his eyes lit up a bright emerald color.
"Superman,"
Red laser shot out of Amazo's eyes as green lasers shot out of Jetray's. Both lasers collided with each other blinding Ben's teammates who were hoping to jump in and help him. For a bit, it seemed as if Amazo's red laser vision would overpower Jetray's, but then Jetray's tail rose up and pointed towards Amazo's head and shot a laser of its own. The laser flew through the air, ripping through the oxygen and wind until it slammed into Amazo's head.
This sudden attack caused the android to get knocked off balance and Jetray to overpower his laser vision, having the green lasers blast out the robot's eyes and destroying the face plate's top half.
'Now with his sight gone, I should be able to transform into some heavy hitters.' Ben figured in his mind slapping the Omnitrix and flying through the air as Big Chill.
The android seemed to try and piece together where it was, its radar being destroyed, and its sensors gone, it had no clue where it was standing or where the enemy was.
Big Chill phased through Amazo's right arm and froze it solid before Robin suddenly appeared out of nowhere and threw some of his explosive shurikens at the frozen block that was once Amazo's arm. The disks exploded and tore apart the once arm of Amazo as Kid Flash ran around the android delivering several punches and kicks to it's torso before running away when it started to frantically move around it one good arm.
Superboy then jumped from behind the droid punching through its shoulder and ripping it off.
Ben slapped the dial on his chest and transformed into a three-foot silicon white speaker with green eyes and something on its head that resembled headphones.
"Echo Echo," Its body slightly morphed and deformed itself before five more of the creature appeared surrounding the android, each opening up their mouths. "Echo Chamber!" All of them let out a high pitch sound wave that slammed into the robot.
The metal clang sound that pushed off its body came from its robotic parts twisting and pulling off of each other. The paint that was giving it a human-like appearance started to tear and rip as a part of its back completely ripped off its body.
They all then suddenly stopped and jumped in the air and all combined into one Echo Echo before a large emerald green light forms around him.
Amazo tried to get off the ground but was slammed back into when Humangosaur fell feet first on the androids back. The whole school shook like crazy and the building's interior started to crumble.
In one last emerald green light Ben turned into Upchuck and bounced off the androids destroyed body before using its multiple tongues to grab the androids head and eat before puking it back out at the robot. The attack exploded on impact and the robot's body was scattered across the room.
Upchuck sighed in relief before his head fell back to the floor with his reverting back to normal.
"You ok?" Ben opened his eyes to see Kid Flash, Robin, and Superboy standing over him.
"Need smoothie…"
Robin smiled, "He's fine."
"Urg. No really though this hurts like bad…" Ben commented while grunting in pain.
Mount Justice
Ben, Wally, Superboy, Dick, M'gann, and Kaldur gathered in the central control room with a holo-screen surrounding them with reports of the battle at the high school. Members of the Justice League stood juxtaposed to them, Batman, Black Canary, Martian Manhunter, Red Tornado, and Green Arrow all lined up listening to Ben's mission report.
"The Amazo android has been dealt with; It's been properly taken apart… or at least what was left was taken apart, and sent uninterrupted to both Star Labs facilities," Ben stated after the battle he transformed into Swampfire and healed his injuries up in a matter of seconds, thankfully, it would have taken months for a normal human body to recover from his injuries, "But, Ivo escaped and since he originated the technology he's arguably more dangerous than the android ever will be."
"Capturing the professor will be a League priority," Canary spoke up, "But, we understand that your mission encountered other complications…"
They all gave each other similar looks of nervousness and confusion but Superboy looked towards the ground. Batman stepped forwards slowly, "Complications come with the job, your ability to handle them has impressed the League."
Superboy spoke up, "The whole league?" He asked, obviously referring to Superman.
"Given time, yes, Kryptonians, as you know," Batman said while having a rare and almost imperceptible smile on his face. "Have very hard heads."
The Team chuckled a little at Superboy's expense; the clone took it in good humor as Batman continued. "Of course, there's no shame in asking for help, that's why the League exists. Because there are some problems that we can't solve individually."
"Please, if we needed help, we'd never get the chance to ask!" Robin walked up and held up the arrow that had saved Ben's life, waving it in front of Green Arrow. "Look familiar? You were following us- babysitting! You still don't trust us!"
He stopped his rant as Green Arrow pulled out an arrow from his quiver and compared it to the one Robin held. That's when Ben noticed the differences.
"And that's not your arrow."
"But that means-" Robin began to say before Aqualad finished for him.
"Speedy. He still has our backs." He said with a smile.
Ben slightly narrowed his eyes at the arrow's appearance from what he heard from this Speedy, the one that ditched the League when he wasn't accepted after being lied to for so long, while dramatic Ben could understand why, but the only thing was he was sure the boy used red arrows… not green.
"Either way." Kid Flash said, taking the arrow out of the Leaguer's grip. "Souvenir!"
Ben walked off hoping at least one day he would be able to thank the person who saved him.
Unknown Location
A purple portal opened up in a dark room with metallic red walls with red lights lighting up the room.
He was an adult man wearing a silver helmet with a purple visor that blocked all view of his face, leaving only two glowing purple eyes visible. He had a black bodysuit, but had silver boots, gauntlets, and a chest plate that was under a black and purple trench coat.
"Eon!" A raspy and dark voice hissed from the other side of the room. The voice came from a large humanoid creature with a face resembling that of an octopus. He had tentacles dangling in the front of his face, like a beard. His skin, pale-green with yellowish spots on his face and tentacles. While he didn't seem to have a nose and visible ears, he had red eyes. He wore a black and red-brownish armored suit. He wore one glove on his right hand that held a ruby on the top of it, while also wearing a big golden gauntlet on his left arm then held a giant yellow stone on the forearm. His armor spiked at the shoulder and arm pads. He also has green sacs on the sides of his head. With a sword held in a holder behind him.
"Vilgax, so nice to see you again," Eon said with a grin hidden by his visor. "I have an idea, or more so a way to defeat Ben Tennyson once and for all."
Vilgax's eyes narrowed. "I'm listening…"
"Good well have to visit an alternate universe first, don't want Paradox getting any ideas of recruiting other Ben's."
Eon opened a portal behind him and stepped through it with Vilgax following behind him.
Before anyone asked I did a combination of all the designs of Vilgax and Eon. So they have a specific design from the series. Just think Vilgax with the gauntlet and sword from Alien Force and the robotic enhancements in the original series. For Eon I would say kind of his Omniverse or movie appearance, with his Ultimate Alien helmet and viser.
