Now on to the story!
This is
chapter 3 end of the beginning
Ben, Kevin, and Gwen stood frozen in awe, their eyes wide as they took in the sight of the silver-eyed girl, her cloak billowing in the wind dramatically. "Well, that's one way to end a fight," Kevin remarked, his tone laced with dry humor. "RUBY!" Yang cried out, her voice filled with relief and excitement as she dashed towards her sister. With an exuberant burst of affection, she enveloped Ruby in a bone-crushing hug, momentarily stealing the spotlight and diminishing Ruby's victorious moment. Ruby gasped for breath, caught off guard by the sudden embrace.
Breaking free from her sister's overwhelming affection, Kevin shook off his daze and approached the trunk of his car. He rummagedged through the back, retrieving two pairs of metallic cuffs and a worn pair of jeans. With determined focus, He began restraining Adam, using the jeans as a makeshift gag to silence him before securing him by fastening the energy cuffs around his arms and legs.
As Kevin hoisted Adam toward the trunk to secure him inside, Ruby finally escaped from Yang's tight grasp, instinctively drawing in several deep breaths to steady herself. With an adorable pout forming on her lips, she looked at her sister with playful indignation. "Yang, you ruined my big entrance! I was looking super cool, and then you just had to swoop in and mess it all up!" Yang however did it show any negative reaction just smiling and ruffling Ruby's hair.
"Thanks for saving us, Ruby Your entrance was pretty cool," Yang exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with admiration. Ruby felt a rush of pride at her sister's words, a bright smile spreading across her face that lit up the room and lifted the spirits of everyone around her. At that moment, her somewhat childish innocence radiated warmth and joy.
As the atmosphere buzzed with excitement, Ben stepped forward, his curiosity piqued. "So, who's your friend, Yang?" he asked, glancing at the two sisters.
Yang, never one to miss a chance to embarrass her sister, instantly sidled up to The hooded girl, her hands waving dramatically in the air. "This is the almighty Ruby Rose, Slayer of Grimm and devourer of cookies and my little adorable weapon loving sister!" she declared with exuberance, her a voice filled with exaggerated Flair. Turning to Ruby, she continued, "And Ruby, this is Ben. He's a hero from another dimension."
Ruby's eyes Immediately went wide as she animatedly zoomed from one side to another around Ben, excitedly asking questions a mile a minute. "ohmygoodnessohmygoodnessohmygoodnessI'llmakeitit'sallmygoodnessyou'rerealherocanhaveyourautographwhat'sthestrongestpersonyou'veeverfacedwhatyoursuperpowerTellmeeverythingdoyoulikeweaponswhat'syoursuperheroname?"
Ben stared at her for a moment before responding, "Yes, you can have my autograph. My hero name is Ben 10. No, I don't particularly use weapons that often." He answered
The white-haired girl's mouth dropped to the floor animatedly before shouting "How on Remnant can you understand her!"
Turning around, Ben pointed at her and responded, "Back where I come from, I'm a celebrity, and people normally freak out and talk fast when they meet me for the first time, so I learned how to translate fast talkers for the most part." Ben responded has he reached into his pocket that and pulled out a pre-autographed picture of himself and handed it to Ruby, much to her joy as she jumped into the air animatedly shouting, "Yay!"
Ben walked closer to the white-haired girl and asked, "Who are you?" The white-haired girl straightened herself with a bit of pride in her voice. She said, "I'm Weiss Schnee, heiress of the Schnee Dust Company." At that moment, Kevin budded in confusion. He asked," I'm sorry you guys sell dead skin to people. How do you guys make a living off of that?"
"It's not dead skin, you dult! Dust is energy It powers everything and gives us the ability to control and utilize the elements." Weiss shouted angrily
Gwen furrowed her brow as she pondered the concept, finally she speaking up. "So basically, it's like materia," she announced, her voice resonating with a hint of uncertainty, which mirrored the confusion evident on the faces of the Remnant natives gathered around her.
Coco, clearly perplexed, responded with a raised eyebrow, "I'm sorry, what?"
Ben, sensing the need to clarify, cleared his throat to gather the group's attention. "Let me explain. Materia is a type of magical mechanic from a video game called Final Fantasy VII. It appears as a small, spherical orb that encapsulates various magical abilities," he elaborated, his tone growing he is animated as he speaks.
As the realization sank in, nods of understanding spread through the crowd, Bridging the gap between their world and the fantastical elements of the game. Just then, Kevin broke the moment of comprehension, his voice cutting through the chatter. "Hey, Ben, I've got a lock on Cooper and Max's plumber badges," he announced, shifting the focus back to their Urgent mission.
"And Why should we worry about someone who can fix a leaky pipe? Do plumbers need badges to do their job seriously?"
Sun asked a bit confused however Yang answered this one
"Oh, Ben told us about that plumber is a peacekeeping interstellar police force."
Velvet's rabbit ears immediately stiffened as her eyes widened "You work for space police?" she asked Kevin who nodded "yeah it's pretty cool"
Coco pulled down her sunglasses and stared at Kevin. "Man, emo, and here I thought you were one of the bad boys."
"I said don't call me that!" Kevin snapped at Coco and gave him a teasing smirk as she pushed her sunglasses back into place
"Okay let's calm down." Benn said, getting in between Kevin and Coco. "Look, we need to get out of here, so I say we go meet up With Grandpa Max and Cooper and for you make a plan from there, okay?"
Decent plan, Tennyson, decent plan, just one teeny tiny thing you overlooked. We don't have enough seats in my car for everyone. I have enough for me, and the four I brought would still need room for the rest." Ben however smirked pulling out his keys from the right Pocket of his hoodie, he punched a button as his car pulled up right next to him
"Now that there is one pretty piece of work, you have one good mechanic, Ben." Yang complimented Kevin and immediately puffed out his chest with a confident smile on his face. "Thanks, I built it for his birthday." Yang whistled in appreciation for saying, "Well, if my bike ever needs a tune up, I know who I'm calling." She perked up at the mention of her bike, "had a feeling you had a wild ride." Kevin said with a bit of a smile.
"All right, let's load up and get going," Ben announced with a sense of urgency, glancing at the scattered belongings of their group. However, Gwen, always sharp and observant, quickly interjected, "Hate to break it to you, Ben, but there are eleven of us. If we all pile into your car, one of us is bound to be left behind."
Her words hung In the air, and the reality of the situation started to sink in. The small vehicle they had all piled into after fight he forgotten it simply wouldn't accommodate everyone. Just as the anxiety began to bubble up, Yang stepped forward confidently, a glint of determination in her eyes. "I'll just take my bike, Bumblebee," she declared, her tone leaving no room for argument. "I need to grab it from the garage first."
Ben, eager to help and perhaps a bit curious about Yang's ever-guarded ride, swiftly tossed his keys to his cousin. "I'll go with you, just in case he offered, walking alongside her as they began to make their way away from the remnants of the cafeteria, which lay in disarray after the chaotic lunch hour.
Meanwhile, Ruby watched in stunned silence, her mouth slightly agape. It was a rare occurrence for Yang to let anyone else ride her beloved motorcycle, which she adored like a trusty steed. The thought of Ben joining her on the bike was both surprising and intriguing. Shaking off her surprise, Ruby finally mustered the courage to get into Ben's car, her mind racing with the possibilities.
"something on your mind Ruby?" Gwen asked from the driver's seat. Ruby momentarily being brought out of her stupor, replied, "Yes, Yang never lets anyone on her bike. I mean, yeah, she let Neptune On the bike once, but that was special circumstances. I rarely ever get to ride on her bike, and I'm her sister!" Gwen, with A small smile on her face looked back and replied, "Oh, it's simple, But right now, let's get out of here." with that, Gwen started the engine as both she and Kevin drove away.
(With Yang and Ben Beacon's garage)
Yang and Ben stepped into the dimly lit garage, the air thick with the scent of motor oil and old tires. As they walked in, an eerie sense of calm wrapped around them, almost as if the shadows were conspiring to keep any looming threats at bay. The garage was packed with an array of vehicles, from gleaming sports cars to rugged off-road trucks, each telling a story of adventure and speed. Ben trailed closely behind Yang, his curiosity piqued by the sheer variety of machines lining the walls.
"Seriously, what doesn't this place have?" Ben mused, his eyes wide as he took in the impressive collection.
Yang chuckled softly, her fingers idly brushing against the polished surface of a nearby hood. "Well, for starters, there's no one here who can understand a good joke when they hear one," she replied with a playful glint in her eye.
As Ben glanced around, an idea sparked in his mind. He leaned back against a battered trash can, its surface marked by splatters of paint and an assortment of old tools scattered nearby. "What do they think, all your jokes are trash?" he quipped, raising an eyebrow with a smirk.
Yang's lips curled into a smile, and a soft giggle escaped her. "See? You get it, Ben! No one appreciates good humor these days. They just see it as a pun-ishment," she said, her tone light and teasing as she continued down the hallway.
Ben couldn't help but laugh at Her clever wordplay, the sound echoing softly against the garage walls. It was refreshing to find someone who shared his fondness for puns and humor—a small reprieve in a world that often felt too serious.
After a short walk, they came to a stop in front of a gunmetal gray coloring gray garage door. Above the door, a small sign displayed the number J1813 on a sign above the door. Yang approached a discreet panel mounted on the side, deftly using her scroll to activate the door with a smooth whir; the garage door rumbled open, revealing a son kissed yellow-colored motorcycle that gleamed under the dim light. The bike was accentuated by a vibrant orange dieback and featured striking black triangular lines running along its sleek sides. Ben's eyes widened in awe as he took in the breathtaking design, his mouth falling open at the sight of what he considered a true work of art.
"Ben, meet Bumblebee," she said cheerfully, gesturing towards the sleek motorcycle parked beside her.
"Oh, Kevin's going to have a field day when he sees this," Ben replied with a light chuckle, stepping closer to the motorcycle with an eager Look in his eyes.
As he admired the bike, Yang, with a playful grin, reached for a helmet resting nearby. The helmet was strikingly yellow, perfectly matching the motorcycle, and had her insignia elegantly engraved on one side, a symbol of her adventurous spirit. With a swift motion, she tossed the helmet to Ben, who caught it with a slightly stunned expression.
amid a bit of a hard head from what I've seen, Ben," she teased, raising an eyebrow, "but it's always good to have an extra layer of protection." Her voice carried a mix of playfulness and genuine concern, emphasizing the importance of safety even in the midst of their fun.
As Ben put on the helmet Yang mounted the motorcycle as she revved the engine Ben finally mounted the motorcycle behind eating his arms and holding on to the seat "Ben I know you're doing this out of respect but It's okay if you were at your arms around me it honestly a bit safer"
hesitating for a moment Ben slowly wrapped his arms around Yang's waist as he leaned forward slightly As he was close enough to smell Yang's hair it smelt like lavender before he could think on it any further Yang revved the engine and speed it out of the beacon garage and out into the destroyed courtyard as they did Ben used his plumber patch to help guide Yang towards Kevin and the others however above them they started to hear the sound of something flapping in the wind it sounded faint at first so they didn't put much thought into however, the minute they caught up with the others, the flapping began to become louder and louder. Ben looked up. His face, once filled with curiosity, immediately turned to horror.
It was a colossal beast, its body carved from jet-black smoke and unyielding armor, each scale glistening like obsidian under the pale moonlight. Its fiery red eyes burned with a hatred as ancient as time, and its jagged wings unfurled like a storm cloud blotting out the moonlight Flying High above the ruined kingdom of Vale, it roared down at the group.
"I'm sorry. IS THAT A DRAGON? SERIOUSLY, WHAT ARE WE IN? DARK SOUL OR THE FANTASY SECTION OF HOT TOPIC!" Kevin gripped the steering wheel tightly as he shouted over the crackling shared communications, his voice strained with urgency. The engine roared beneath him as he pushed the pedal to the metal, feeling the surge of horsepower thrumming through the vehicle. He glanced in the rearview mirror, watching the colossal silhouette of the dragon loom larger, its scales glinting ominously in the fading sunlight. Desperation filled his chest as he tried to outpace the beast, heart racing with each thundering beat. Despite his efforts, the dragon's fierce wings beat like the pulse of a storm, drawing closer, rendering his speed insufficient against the magical creature's relentless pursuit. "hey Ben if there's any time to go hero that would be the time!" Gwen shouted from his car.
quickly removing one of his arms from Yang's waist , he quickly glanced down at the Omnitrix strapped tightly to his wrist, dread pooling in his stomach as he saw the familiar flashing icon, a cruel reminder that it was still in its cooldown phase from the earlier confrontation with Adam. "This can't be happening," he muttered under his breath, frustration boiling within him. "No good, I'm still timed out!"
Just then, the air crackled with a palpable energy as the menacing dragon, its scales glinting like dark jewels in the fading sunlight, reared back, silhouetted against the crimson sky. Its fierce, glowing eyes fixed on them with malevolent intent, and with a thunderous roar that shook the very ground beneath their feet, it opened its massive jaws. In a heartbeat, it unleashed a colossal fireball, a swirling inferno of flames and heat that twisted through the air like a demonic whirlwind, hurtling directly toward the group. Time seemed to stretch and warp as panic surged through Ben, helpless and vulnerable at that moment. "Incoming!" Neptune shouted urgently, his voice cutting through the chaos like a lifeline.
Gwen, gripping the steering wheel of Ben's car with white-knuckled determination, swerved to evade the fiery projectile, her heart racing as she narrowly avoided the inferno. Kevin, behind the wheel of his own car, fought to steer clear of the chaos, dodging the fireball that screamed past them with a ferocious whoosh. However, Ben and Yang found themselves caught in the dragon's wrath; the fireball struck with tremendous force, engulfing them in a blinding blaze and propelling them skyward, their bodies soaring through the air like ragdolls caught in a tempest, the world below fading into a blur of chaos and flames as they plummeted into uncertainty.
As they tumbled, Ben frantically pressed down on the Omnitrix, activating its power in a desperate bid to transform. The familiar green glow enveloped him, illuminating the scene as he began to morph. As they crash-landed, a massive crater was formed, debris and dust scattering in all directions, painting the landscape in chaos.
When the dust finally settled, a towering figure emerged—Ben now stood over 90 feet tall, transformed into an imposing humanoid dinosaur. His skin was a deep, tanned hue, and his body was adorned with massive, spiked armor on his shoulders. The scales around his eyes jutted out, forming threatening brows that accentuated his fierce expression. He carefully cradled Yang in one colossal arm, making sure she was safe as he gently placed her on the ground.
Stunned, Yang sprinted toward Gwen and Kevin, who had come to a halt in their cars, Their jaws dropped in awe at the sight before them. "What on Remnant is that?" Ruby exclaimed, her voice bubbling with excitement, her eyes sparkling with wonder as she took in Ben's astonishing new appearance.
Before anyone could respond, a deep, animalistic Roar erupted from deep within Ben's throat, shaking the air around them. He threw his head back, shouting triumphantly toward the heavens, the overwhelming power of his transformation resonating through the very ground they stood on.
"HUMUNGOUSAUR!" With a thunderous roar, the fully matured Vaxasaurian burst forth from the crater, his scales glinting ominously in the fractured light of the devastated cityscape. He leaped into the air, his massive fist connecting with the grim dragon's jaw, the impact resonating like a cannon fire and sending the creature hurtling through the air. The dragon crashed into the ground, creating a shockwave that sent debris flying in all directions. As the dust settled, Ben began to run towards the grim dragon ready to finish the fight once and for all.
"Well, the dragon screwed now," Kevin said sarcastically.
(With Ben Normal POV)
Ben, still as Humongousaur, navigated through the wreckage of a once-vibrant city that lay in ruins. He searched desperately for any signs of the dragon's landing. Suddenly, without any warning, a massive black tail whipped through the air and crashed into Humongousaur, sending him crashing against the remnants of a collapsed building. Dazed but resilient, he quickly regained his footing, shaking off debris as he glared at the ominous dragon looming nearby.
The creature let out a low growl, its eyes glinting with malice as it prepared to unleash another fireball. Ben's instincts kicked in, and with impressive agility, he dodged to the side just in time to avoid the scorching attack. As he landed, his keen gaze caught sight of a broken support beam amidst the rubble. Seizing the opportunity, he bent down, gripped the heavy beam, and with every ounce of his strength, he hurled it like a javelin toward the formidable dragon, hoping to distract or injure it in the process. It was a makeshift weapon, but in that moment, it was all he had. As the scorching beam struck the lower jaw of the massive dragon, it let out a deafening roar, echoing through the cavern like a thunderclap. The sound was a chilling mixture of pain and fury, reverberating off the stone walls. With a furious flap of its colossal wings, the creature soared into the air, its scales glistening in the dim light. Angered and determined, it gathered its strength, unleashing a relentless A searing torrent of fire roared through the desolate city, the flames licking hungrily at the skeletal remains of buildings. Ben darted between the wreckage, the heat on his heels as he sought refuge in the shattered husks of concrete and steel. His breaths came fast, his mind racing as he scaled the ruins of two half-destroyed towers. Above, the dragon's massive shadow swept across the ruins, its furious roars shaking the very air.
Perched atop the crumbling height, Ben leaped without hesitation, With a deafening crash, he landed on the dragon's scaly back, his claws sinking deep into its flesh as it bellowed in pain and fury. The beast twisted and writhed, its vast wings beating frantically as it climbed higher, dragging Ben into the clouds.
As they soared over a nearby demolition site, Ben's sharp gaze locked onto a towering crane. Seizing the moment, he stretched out a massive hand, ripping free the steel cord and the wrecking ball with a single fluid motion. The dragon screeched, its flight Growing erratic, but Ben was already airborne. He sprang from its back, the world spinning around him as he built momentum, the steel cable whirling in a deadly arc.
With a thunderous cry, Ben hurled the wrecking ball with all his might. The projectile shot forward like a meteor, colliding with the dragon's chest in an earth-shaking impact. The beast was sent careening backward, its massive body crashing through a crumbling skyscraper. The structure gave way in an avalanche of steel and concrete, trying the dragon beneath a mountain of rubble as the dust and silence settled over The battlefield.
The pile of rubble trembled violently, stones and debris cascading as the grim dragon emerged, its roar splitting the heavens. Flames erupted from its maw in a blazing column, searing through the smoke-filled air as it stepped free from the wreckage. Its piercing eyes locked onto Ben, brimming with vengeful fury. With a thunderous stomp, it crushed the wrecking ball beneath its feet, the steel crumpling like paper. Spreading its massive wings, the beast launched itself skyward, ascending with terrifying speed.
But before it could gain altitude, the dragon felt a sudden jolt. Looking down, it saw the thick steel cable from the wrecking ball coiled tightly around its leg. Below, Humungousaur braced himself, muscles rippling as he poured every ounce of strength into the cable. With a mighty roar, he began to spin, faster and faster, the immense dragon becoming an unwilling projectile. At last, Ben let go, releasing the dragon into the sky.
The beast hurtled through the air, spiraling uncontrollably before managing to steady itself. Its brief reprieve was shattered by a barrage of gunfire as the freshly mobilized Atlas military unleashed a hail of bullets and energy rounds. The dragon screeched in fury, its wounded body descending in a desperate attempt to escape. But its plight worsened as a familiar weight slammed onto its back once more.
Ben, still in his colossal form, landed with crushing force, his arms gripping the dragon's wings. Wrapping the steel cable tightly around both appendages, he pulled with relentless determination, pinning them against the creature's sides. The dragon roared and thrashed, but Ben held firm as the two plummeted toward the earth, a fiery comet streaking toward the unfinished construction site below.
The ground shook with the impact. The dragon's colossal body smashed through the skeletal framework of the building, the shocWave rattling the surrounding ruins. A single, jagged support beam skewered through its skull, silencing its cries. For a moment, all was still—then the dragon's form disintegrated into ash, carried away by the wind as the battlefield fell eerily quiet. Ben stood amidst the ruins, his massive frame heaving with exertion, victorious at last.
(With Phantom 10 and the others third person POV earlier during the fight)
The crowd gathered around the Rust Bucket fell silent as they gazed skyward, their eyes widening in awe. Above them, Humungousaur delivered a thunderous punch, sending the grim dragon hurtling out of the air like a meteor. The sheer power of the blow left everyone speechless, save for Phantom 10. Though his masked face betrayed no emotion, even he seemed momentarily unsettled. Yet, his focus lingered on Glenda for reasons unknown, a hint of confusion visible in his stiff posture.
The stillness was shattered by Glenda's voice as she stammered, struggling to form coherent words. "What… how… uh… what did I just see?" she finally blurted, shaking her head in disbelief before shouting, "WHAT IN REMNANT IS THAT MONSTROSITY?"
Max chuckled warmly, stepping forward with a proud smile. "That monstrosity would be my grandson, Ben," he said, his tone brimming with pride.
The declaration was met with incredulous stares from everyone except Cooper and Phantom. Cooper, ever the pragmatist, Adjusted his posture and explained, "Ben Tennyson wields a device called the Omnitrix. It's an advanced piece of alien technology that allows him to transform into various alien forms. What you just saw was one of those forms—Humungousaur. And if Ben's here, you can bet the rest of his team isn't far behind. Come on, we should get moving."
Max nodded in agreement, gesturing for the bewildered natives of Remnant to climb aboard the Rust Bucket. As the group began boarding, Amber hesitated, her gaze shifting toward Phantom 10's car. With quiet resolve, she made her way over and climbed in.
As Phantom steered the vehicle away, Amber couldn't help but notice his unusual silence. The confident air he typically exuded was gone, replaced by a pensive stillness. Glancing at him, she finally broke the silence. "What happened back there? You completely zoned out after hearing her name."
Phantom stiffened at the question, his grip on the wheel tightening. After a moment, he let out a frustrated sigh and muttered, "I-it's not i-important."
Amber raised a skeptical brow, clearly unconvinced. Before she could press further, a massive crash echoed nearby, and Phantom instinctively turned the car in that direction. But Amber wasn't about to drop the subject so easily. "Seriously," she pressed, her voice teasing but curious. "What's going on between you and her? Don't tell me you have a crush on her."
Phantom's reaction was immediate. He slammed the brakes harder than he intended, causing the car to lurch to a stop. Turning to Amber, he shouted, "NO!" The outburst hung in the air for a tense moment before Phantom took a deep, calming breath. "It's personal," he said firmly, his voice quieter now. "And it's not a conversation I'm willing to have."
Recognizing the finality in his tone, Amber nodded and leaned back in her seat, her gaze shifting to the window. Phantom resumed driving, his focus on the road ahead.
When they finally arrived at the crash site, the scene before them was a testament to the battle's ferocity. The remains of the grim dragon lay scattered amidst the rubble, and Ben stood at the center of it all.
(with ben at the crash site normal POV)
Humungousaur let out labored breaths as he sank to the ground, his massive frame slumped in exhaustion amidst the wreckage of the demolition yard. The battle had taken its toll, and the Omnitrix on his chest began to emit a sharp beeping sound. He glanced down, watching as the symbol glowed red. In a flash of light, the towering alien form was gone, leaving Ben Tennyson sitting amidst the destruction, his human face marked with exhaustion but his spirit unbroken.
The low rumble of engines cut through the aftermath's eerie quiet, drawing Ben's attention. He looked up to see his team and their new allies rushing toward him. Ruby was at the forefront, her excitement palpable as she practically bounced with every step. "THAT. WAS. AWESOME!" she yelled, her words tumbling out as she reenacted the fight with exaggerated motions. "You were all like KA-POW, and the dragon was all ROAR, and then BAM—down it went!" Her animated karate poses punctuated her excitement, her energy infectious.
Kevin was next, striding up with a smirk before giving Ben a solid punch on the arm. "Short stack's right, Tennyson," he said, his tone laced with approval. "That was insane—straight outta Godzilla!"
Yang stepped forward, her grin as wide as ever. She raised her hand, and Ben met it with a high five. "Gotta hand it to you, Shift," she said, the nickname catching Ben off guard.
"Shift?" he repeated, raising a brow.
"Yeah!" Yang replied, her smile unwavering. "I give all my friends nicknames. 'Shift' just seemed right for you—way cooler than, say, 'Green Boy.' But seriously, awesome job taking down that dragon. You really took it out with a yang, eh?"
Everyone groaned at the pun, Ruby face palming in mock despair. Ben, however, chuckled. "Thanks, Blonde Brawler," he replied, his smirk matching hers.
The sound of tires on gravel turned their attention as a familiar RV rolled up, parking next to Kevin's car. From the Rust Bucket emerged Max, Ironwood, Glenda, Nora, and Cooper. Max was the first to speak, his voice carrying a mix of exasperation and pride. "Still causing property damage, Ben? Even in another dimension, that reckless streak of yours never seems to fade."
Ben and Gwen ran toward him, pulling Max into a tight hug, while Kevin followed behind, nodding at Cooper and giving Max a hearty slap on the back. Before anyone could say more, a sleek green Mercedes-Benz pulled up. The doors opened, revealing Phantom 10 and Amber stepping out.
Cooper took the initiative, gesturing toward the new arrivals. "We met these people after we landed. The blonde-haired woman is Glenda Goodwitch, the man with black and white hair is General Ironwood, and this is Nora."
Nora, ever the ball of energy, jumped into the air with an enthusiastic wave. A pink background with her emblem briefly appeared behind her, shattering like glass as Ren gently pulled her back to the ground.
"That's Ren," Cooper continued, unpassed. "And these two are Phantom 10 and Amber."
Before anyone could respond, a sharp ringing sound broke the moment. All heads turned to Ruby, who flushed with embarrassment as she pulled out her scroll. She answered the call, only to be met with Jaune's frantic voice.
"The tower! You have to save her!"
Ruby's face went pale. "Save who?" she asked urgently, but before Jaune could answer, Phantom 10 stepped forward and plucked the scroll from her hand, holding her back with a firm hand on her head as she protested.
"What do you mean? Who needs saving?" Phantom demanded.
"Pyrrha! She went back to save the professor!"
The revelation caused the Remnant natives to wince, a shared tension passing among them. The students who weren't familiar with the situation exchanged confused glances, but Phantom didn't waste time.
"Of course she did," he muttered, tossing the scroll back to Ruby. "Don't worry, I'll get her." He turned to Gwen. "I need you to make a mana platform and take me to the tower. It's not far from here. The rest of you, protect Amber."
Ruby, Yang, and Ben stepped forward, their determination clear, but Phantom cut them off before they could speak.
"No," he said firmly, his voice brooking no argument. "You've all been fighting all day. You're exhausted. And Ben, you're useless without the Omnitrix. The person Pyrrha's facing is a skilled fighter. Without it, you don't stand a chance. Leave this to me. Gwen's coming because she's the least worn out of all of you."
"what about you?" Ruby tried to argue further but was interrupted by Phantom 10. "I barely fought today and my Omnitrix is fully charged I can still transform unlike Ben, plus I actually have fought Cinder already, I'm your best bet." he replied leaving no room for argument
Reluctantly, the group stepped back as Phantom approached Gwen. She nodded, forming a glowing mana platform beneath his feet. As they ascended toward the tower, Glenda watched them with a strange sense of unease. Quietly, she murmured, "Be safe, Phantom."
(At Beacon Tower)
Cinder prowled around the injured Pyrrha, her movements predatory and deliberate. Pyrrha lay on one knee, the other leg pinned to the floor by an arrow. Cinder's voice dripped with mock sympathy as she leaned down, her fingers lifting Pyrrha's chin.
"it's unfortunate You are promised power, that wasn't truly yours however, it take solace in the fact that when the maiden gets here I will be able to use the power in ways you can only dream of."
Pyrrha lifted her head glaring into cinder's eyes and asked "do you believe in destiny?"
Cinder's smile vanished from her face is she formed her bow once again and took aim at the invincible girls heart.
"Yes."
She replied seriously, releasing the arrow; however, before it could strike Pyrrha's heart, the headmaster jumped in front of her. He grunted in pain as he dropped his prizeed cain and fell to the ground, his body turning into ash immediately, much to the horror of Pyrrha.
Not deterred in the slightest Cinder knocked another arrow however before she could even aim she felt two feet make contact with the back of her head as she flew across the remains of the tower quickly using her semblance she formed two blades stopping herself before she fell off the edge she glared at her new opponent seeing Phantom 10 once again as he stepped forward cracking his knuckles
"You're not getting away with the death of the headmaster, Cinder. I'll make sure that you and all those who worked with you are put behind bars if not the ground."
Phantom 10 replied as Gwen formed a shield bubble around her and Pyrrha. Cinder could only growl as she charged and Phantom 10 swished blades, however, Phantom 10 easily parried them like he did earlier that day Cinder and Phantom began to lock in a deadly dance their arms moving faster than most people could track whenever Cinder would slash with her swords Phantom would easily block with his wrists and counter by punching or kicking her At long last, fueled by determination,
Cinder harnessed her share of maiden prowess to conjure a blazing fireball, hurling it toward Phantom. Initially, he attempted to shield himself, but the inferno pierced through his defenses with a searing intensity, eliciting a scream of anguish as he stumbled back. Undeterred, Cinder swiftly loosed an arrow, only for Phantom to deftly snatch it from the air. In a flash of cunning, she swept his legs from under him and landed a kick to his head, sending him careening toward the precipice.
With a triumphant smirk, she advanced to the edge, only to be met by a fist—courtesy of Phantom, who, in The last second, used his energy to grapple back to the ledge and catapulted himself back into the fray. With agility, he executed a breathtaking midair flip, re-entering the realm of battle, where he unleashed a fierce roundhouse kick that struck Cinder's cranium.
Quick getting back on her feet, she forged another blade, aiming for a piercing thrust to Phantom's midsection; yet, the weapon shattered against his formidable armor. Before she could even react, Phantom retaliated with a forceful punch, sending forth a shockwave of verdant energy that propelled her backward.
Springing to her feet with fervor, she lunged once more, aiming for the unguarded expanse of his forehead.
Yet he soared over her like a shadow, landing deftly behind her. With The use of his energy grapple, he yanked her towards him, unleashing a torrent of ruthless punches and kicks.
In a single, wrenching motion, he twisted her Arm, dislocating it before leaving her reeling. A fierce roundhouse Kick connected with her face, sending her crashing to the ground. But Phantom, relentless, mounted Her and rained down a merciless barrage, each punch echoing brutality. Finally, seizing her by the hair, he delivered a knee strike to her abdomen, propelling her toward the precipice of despair.
As she staggered back, pain igniting fury within her, she raised her hand high, conjuring a colossal fireball—an explosion of her maiden essence, focused into a singular, cataclysmic strike.
As she threw the fireball at Phantom, it could be blocked as the fire engulfed him; however, a green flash of light was seen in the flames. Walking out of the fire was not Phantom 10 but a strange humanoid.
His form exuded a primal force—vital energy encased in jagged obsidian armor that absorbed the surrounding light like a sponge. Sparks of electricity danced across his silhouette, illuminating the battleground with each surge. His luminous azure gaze zeroed in on Cinder Fall, cutting through the atmosphere with a focus akin to a laser, their unblinking look as frigid as the bolts crackling around Him. However, the most interesting part was the scar over his right eye. "Shock rock," Phantom said in a deep, menacing voice, sending a shiver down Cinder's spine.
Cinder, ever the picture of poise, advanced a step, the flames at her fingertips flickering with eager anticipation. The menacing sharpness of The alien's armor the light, framing the Omnitrix emblem on his chest like a badge of honor. His hands, radiating with contained tempestuous energy, clenched into fists. Between them, the aIr thickened with a mixture of heat and electricity, as fire and thunder prepared for a silent showdown.
"Do you believe you can oppose me?" Cinder taunted, her amber eyes narrowing as she conjured her fiery arsenal. "You're merely an extravagant display of lights."
"We're about to find out." he charged forming 2 war hammers In each hand as he charged at Cinder who did the same as the battle for Beacon was finally coming to an end

MAN, THAT WAS EXCITING AND ANOTHER CLIFFHANGER, BABY. THE POWER IS BACK!
Anyway, sorry for updating this story late yet again. You guys will see me do updates a lot because I want my writing to be as easy to understand as possible, so I will remind you if you guys do see errors, please let me Know
Now, to cover some things about Phantom. Yes, he does have access to Shock Rock. and he will have access to other reboot aliens alongside Ben.
Phantom 10's armor can also absorb and redistribute kinetic energy and turn it into shock waves, similar to the Black Panther suit in the MCU.
Now I want to apologize,for not posting sooner and for it being somewhat short.
I'v been working a lot at my job because since it's a holiday ,I've now been working longer days than normal ,I know working in a retail store around the holidays sucks.
