Underground Omniverse
Gammatron: Hey guys. I own no one in this story nor the series of Sonic Underground, Ben 10 Series, or the BlazBlue series.
Rebel 4: Assault
"So…Hot…" Makoto whined as she blasted the AC at full blast in the passenger's seat, Sonic driving.
"This is…kinda nothing for me, to admit," Ben admitted, his jacket off and hanging behind his seat as he played chess with Sonia, "I spent two whole days on a planet that was nothing but desert sands with a lot of vicious aliens on there and a Highbreed that eventually became my friend and ruler of his planet."
"Not too bad," Sonia noted as she moved her bishop to the diagonal right five spaces.
"And you know what? Reiny was worse than the aliens that wanted to eat us at the beginning," Ben chuckled as he moved his Queen a single space to the left, taking the bishop that took his pawn, "Checkmate."
"What?!" Sonia looked down at the board to see that his two rooks were at the sides of the queen with none of her pieces able to move over to block them from getting the King no matter where it was moved, "…I concede."
"Finally. Thirty wins for you, ten ties, and now I have a win," Ben grinned.
"Yeah, yeah. Let's see one of your aliens play it," Sonia frowned.
"Really now?" Ben raised a brow.
"Of course. You seem to either get smarter or less sophisticated based on the alien. I mean, from what my brothers and you told me…" she glanced left and right, "…Everyone wants to sit down and eat popped kernels of corn while you're Rath."
Ben laughed at that. Oh, that was very true. He even had Jimmy record a time he was Rath and he just couldn't resist getting popcorn and eating it while watching himself as Rath fight. He yelled at a crack for tripping him, even. Inside his head, Ben let out a depressed sigh.
He activated the upgraded Ultimatrix and began to cycle through the aliens until finding a familiar head image. He pushed down on the symbol and time slowed for him once more. His bones felt like they were breaking apart and reforming into something new. His head felt like it was expanding further than any human species could as his brain expanded at an alarming rate. What was once five-fingered hands were now a pair of crab-like pincers. His legs, once two limbs with feet, had been replaced with four multi-jointed crab legs. Orange exoskeleton covered his form as his mouth widened into just a pair of teeth connecting his mouth's halves together. A silver and black band appeared around his waist with the symbol on the middle.
"Brainstorm!" the crab alien declared as Sonia finished resetting the board, "Ah, Chess. Quite the marvelous way to prove one's wits, I should inform."
"Oh my, you sound like a noble at the moment, Ben," Sonia noted.
"I do? I had not seemed to have perceived it as such. My eloquence seems to stem from the fact that my cranium capacity has expanded rather voluminously along with my brain," Brainstorm noted before moving the middle pawn ahead two spaces, "Now shall we compete for victory upon this quadrilateral field, my dear Sonia?"
"Flattery will give you no victory, my good sir," Sonia informed as she moved her left Knight up three and left one.
"So what kinda species is this dude?" Manic asked.
"Cease thine words of curiosity, green one. I am in no mood for you lack of sophisticated movements upon my form for I still display a heated unpleasantness for you for your incessant reminders upon the lithe, yet voluminous in the proper areas, figures that your sister and dear Makoto display to us that you continuously deem proper to give comparison to," Brainstorm waved him off as he moved another pawn just a space ahead.
"…I did what in my cup now?" Manic blinked.
"Manic, he means be quiet," Sonia informed.
"…Ohh…" Manic realized before glaring at the alien.
"Checkmate," Brainstorm chuckled.
"Again?!" Sonia looked down to see she was indeed in Checkmate…in five moves, even.
Makoto looked back and giggled. She looked over at Sonic and pointed. The hedgehog slowly the van to a slower pace to let him look over and snickered at the sight. He went back to driving, unaware of Brainstorm's cranium opening up to expose his brain to release a small shock from it to Manic's rear, sending him hitting the roof and then onto his rear.
"Ow…" Manic moaned.
"I do enjoy this form at times. If not for the advance intelligence, but for the electrical currents I can release upon any given opportunity."
"Impressive," Sonia noted, "Remind me to ask you to use this form around Manic more often."
"Sleet! Dingo! Get in here!" The coyote and dingo entered a control room on a video monitor.
=You called, Lord Robotnik?= Sleet asked.
"Yes. How goes the latest project in Kashastan's outskirts?"
=It's all going north here, Boss= Dingo replied =Just a little bit more time and Bob's your uncle, mate=
"..." Robotnik sighed in annoyance, "Just…Just make sure the project's complete. Knowing our luck, Sonic and his siblings are heading your way. Along with the boy who transforms and the mixed breed."
"Okay! Who said it?!" Makoto snapped in the passenger's seat, earning everyone's attention, "Someone just called me a 'Mixed Breed!' I just know it!"
"Wasn't any of us," Manic noted.
"Indeed. Such a demeaning term such as that did not exude itself from my vocal chords," Brainstorm informed.
"Nope," Sonia nodded.
"Checkmate."
"Ooh, I will beat you in this form, Benjamin Tennyson…" Sonia scowled.
=My liege, are you sure this will work?= Sleet asked.
"But of course. If you did it like I instructed you, then when it works, you will have to eat a hat deep fried in garbage…without ketchup and mustard."
=…I still say the Chaos Emerald incident has done something to you both…= Sleet muttered.
"And I still say that if you bring that up one more time, I will Roboticize you. Are we clear?" Robotnik glared, his red eyes glowing.
=Y-y-y-yes, L-Lord Robotnik…= Sleet gulped.
"Just as the message said," Sonic frowned as he parked the vehicle behind a rather large sand dune.
"I swear I will figure out how to defeat you when you're like this," Sonia growled as Brainstorm chuckled, winning for the last time.
"Then do allow me to quote from Sherlock Holmes; 'If you've eliminated the impossible, whatever is left, no matter how improbable, is likely the truth,'" Brainstorm informed before turning back into Ben.
"Okay. New rule for Chess: No Brainstorm allowed," Sonia frowned as she sent an even glare at them.
"We'll see," Ben joked.
"I guess even out here, the pollution's strong," Makoto looked up at the sky, sunglasses on her face, and saw the pollution coating the sky, "There's always a problem with the planet."
"Hm?" Manic looked over at Makoto.
"On my planet, we can see the skies above, but we can't survive the land. Here, we can survive on the land, but the skies above are kept away from us," Makoto pointed out, giving a dry chuckle, "I guess it's not meant to be for me to be on a world where both land and sky will let me be able to see and enjoy both."
"…" Ben put a hand on her shoulder, getting her attention, "It'll work out, Makoto. I'm sure once Robotnik's done, we can get those skies cleared."
"…" Makoto nodded before walking away from him.
It wasn't about the sky for her. It was about how she always seemed to be somewhere where life was just unfair. In her old world, her mind had been plucked at by a man that loved the color of roses with his puppet actually being the dead body of his wife and her life there ended by a ghost of a man. Here, it was almost just as bad here since the man ruling it had taken over in a coup, polluted the skies, seas, and land for multiple places, and was turning the populace into robots with no free will.
"…Makoto?"
"Huh?" Makoto shook her head before turning to Sonia, "What'd ya say?"
"I asked if you were good to go all out on destroying this place," Sonia frowned.
"Oh. You bet I am!" Makoto nodded as she strapped on her tonfa.
"Great," Sonic grinned, "Let's do it to it!"
The structure was massive. It was painted tainted shades of red and gunmetal and raised high in a tower-like design. At the very top was a spinning four-pronged device, shooting a red beam into the air, the dark, polluted clouds above swirling around it.
"What is that?" Sonic pondered.
"Looks like a transporter beam," Ben guessed.
"What do you mean, dude?" the four turned to Ben at Manic's question.
"…You don't have teleporter beams here?" Ben asked, earning head shakes from the hedgehogs.
"Doesn't look like one I've seen before," Makoto admitted.
"Well, it seems to be in a development stage," Ben pointed out, thankful that he had done his studying on alien technology when he was thirteen, "I mean, the clouds aren't supposed to do that if it were properly working. That means they're a slight chance of something dangerous happening to the one that uses it."
"Freedom Fighters," a SWATBot informed nearby as more began to charge at them.
"Here we go again. It's Hero Time!" Ben declared.
"Been itching for a fight," Makoto grinned as she assumed a fighting stance while Ben slapped his device.
"Omni-Kaka! My nails are itchin'! Here I go, meow!" Omni-Kaka cried out before lunging and slicing apart the SWATBots with her 'claws.'
"Attagirl!" Manic cheered before Omni-Kaka hissed at him, "I mean…Attaboy!"
"You think he got the wrong pick again?" Sonic asked as he whipped out his guitar while Sonia summoned a keyboard and Manic creating a ten-piece set of drums painted gold and white.
"Probably. I saw him wanting the picture of that dinosaur guy he told us about, but his finger went a bit too far to the left on that last spin and ended on hers," Manic pointed out, his eyes trained to see great amount of detail in order to do a heist to perfection.
"Rowrl!" Omni-Kaka hissed as she landed in the arms of one SWATBot before clawing its face off literally.
Manic began to lay a downbeat on his drums, causing the ground to rumble. Rock spikes erupted from the sands, impaling various SWATBots and blowing them up. Nearby, Makoto slammed a tonfa into the 'gut' of one, sending it crashing into others, breaking them all apart. Sonic began to strum his guitar, causing multiple lasers to shoot out between the two heads of it as Sonia gripped the keyboard like a gun and began to fire magenta lasers from it. Eventually, the group finished the last SWATBot as Ben's Ultimatrix timed out to let him change back.
"Ugh…" Ben groaned, shaking his head, "I think that Omni-Kaka is worse than Rath for my personality."
"You mean like how she acts like a five-year-old?" Sonia pointed out.
"No. She acts like when I was ten before I got the Omnitrix," Ben pointed out.
"…Ha!" Manic pointed and laughed, earning a slap to the back of it by Sonia.
"We'll split up here," Sonic informed, "Manic, you go with Ben and Makoto. You guys create a distraction while Sis and I head in to disable the thing."
"On it," Ben nodded.
"This is going to be sweet," Manic beamed, twirling his sticks, before pulling out a metal sphere with a clamp on one side.
"What is that?" Makoto asked.
"A bomb," Manic replied before throwing it at a side and clamped down onto it, "Now everyone duck and cover!"
Sonic grabbed Sonia and raced off in a blue blur as the trio jumped behind a sand dune. A loud explosion erupted from the device as it went off, demolishing the small part of the side that it was attached to. Within minutes, a swarm of SWATBots erupted from the hole and charged at them. Ben quickly activated the Ultimatrix and slapped down on it.
"Big…Chill!" the Necrofriggian declared.
"What's that gonna do for us?" Manic frowned.
"This," Big Chill replied.
He slapped the symbol once more. Four spikes emerged from the sides to make an 'X' overlapped by a circle look to it. A wave of green energy washed over him as it erupted from the device. He grew slightly taller as the blue turned to various shades of a burning flame-design. A fire-themed 'mask' formed on his face as he felt the power of the DNA evolve to…
"Ultimate Big Chill!" the Ultimate Alien declared, "Now you're dealing with fire so cold it burns!"
With that, Ultimate Big Chill inhaled and exhaled not a blast of cold air, but a massive wave of flames. As they washed over the robots, the flames didn't melt. However, they turned the robots into blocks of frozen ice. As Ultimate Big Chill flew over the robots in their path, he continued to freeze them with his flames. Manic spun his drumsticks and swung them like spinning saws. Both weapons tore apart any frozen machine in their path before turning and being caught by the green hedgehog. He and Makoto charged after the Ultimate Alien, destroying the machines in the area.
"There it is! The controls!" Sonic exclaimed as they entered what appeared to be a control room with a computer set up before a spinning dodecahedron-shaped machine roughly five times the size of the two hedgehogs.
"We'll only have ten seconds after I finish installing this bomb," Sonia informed, "It will send out a virus through all the systems this one is connected to before detonating."
"Right sis. Heh. Ten seconds will be easy enough for me," Sonic grinned as Sonia began to install it.
"Uh oh. Sonic, the location that this beam is connecting to...it...it's Robotropolis," Sonia gulped.
"Major bummer," Sonic scowled, "If this thing works, then Robotnik will have a way to send captured Freedom Fighters and innocents to his place for Roboticization."
"Uh oh…" Manic paled as two giant SWATBots emerged from hidden underground containers.
"I'm on it!" Ultimate Big Chill declared as he slammed the emblem.
Ben felt time slow down once more. His body felt like it was getting bigger and bigger, reaching around twelve feet in height. A tail emerged from him as his body was coated in tanned scales. The muscles on his face grew around the eyebrow areas to give him a glaring look. A green bandolier formed on his muscular torso with the Ultimatrix emblem on the middle while his feet turned into feet akin to a Stegosaurus.
"Humongasaur!" the giant dinosaur roared.
"He's huge!" Manic gawked.
"Yep. I'm living large!" Humongasaur declared.
It was then he began to grow…and grow…and grow! He easily reached up from his twelve-foot height to that of a sixty-foot giant, towering over the giant SWATBots by a decent thirty feet. As he grew, his dinosaur features became more pronounced, growing Stegosaur-like plates on his back, a crest on his forehead, and spikes on his tail. Also, on his shoulders three plates separated and grew, giving him a more ferocious look. Humongasaur roared as he spread out his arms before slamming one of the SWATBots into the ground, crushing it. He then grabbed the other one and ripped it in two. He was about to shoulder charge into the tower when a green slime-like substance blasted him, knocking him over. He growled as he tried to get up…only for the Ultimatrix to time out, leaving Ben stuck in the slime.
"Aw man…" Ben groaned as Sleet hovered down on Dingo, his body reshaped into an orange floating throne, "These two again?"
"You jerks!" Manic growled before he and Makoto jumped back from another shot Sleet fired from a wrist-mounted device on his arm.
"How do you like my new Super Hydraulic Incapacitating Trigger?" Sleet asked, showing off the device.
"…" Makoto pointed and laughed, "S-H-I-T! The thing spells 'Shit!'"
Manic couldn't help but laugh as well. Dingo snorted a laugh in his throne state as Sleet's left eye twitched violently.
"Why you…Wh-Who are you, anyway?" Sleet demanded.
"You first, ugly," Makoto pulled her tongue down and blew a raspberry.
"Uht!" Sleet flinched before narrowing his eyes at her, "Why you little…"
It was then the tower began to rumble and groan loudly behind them. The five turned to look up at the structure.
"Ooh boy…" Manic paled before realizing where Ben was, "Crap!"
"What's wrong?" Makoto asked before seeing Ben, "Nuts!"
The two ran over to him and were about to help pull him out of the slime when Sleet got them both in the backs and sent them spinning on top of Ben, leaving Ben in a compromising position of Makoto's bust cutting off his oxygen supply while also leaving Manic stuck to Makoto's back by his noggin.
"Dude…uncool," Manic frowned at the laughing coyote as he flew off as the light on the tower began to grow brighter as the tower began to collapse, "We're screwed."
"Aw man…Where are those three?" Sonic frowned as he paced around the bus.
"Calm down, Sonic, I'm sure t…" Sonia began before they saw the tower collapse in on itself and shoot out a final, massive burst of its energy into the clouds, dispersing them once the beam ended.
"No!" Sonia cried out before the light faded, revealing only a crater.
"No…" Sonic gulped, falling to his knees, "Robotnik's got them now."
"Tutuor me! Azmuth." A Chibi Omake on Aliens
Starring: Azmuth, Taokaka, Carl Clover, Aya Clover (Nirvana), Bang Shishigami, and Ms. Litchi.
The curtain rises up, revealing not Kokonoe's special lab, but a futuristic black and green laboratory that is kept nice and tidy and organized. Standing on a table was a small alien. It has grey skin and seems a bit...frog-like in appearance. His large eyes are green with horizontal rectangle irises while he has six 'whiskers' on his face that go down like a beard and mustache. He wears a green robe with silver bands on the shoulders, waist, and neck.
"Greetings, I am Azmuth, the creator of the Omitrix along with its predecessor, the Unitrix, and this is 'Tutor me! Azmuth,'" the alien introduces himself, "If you humans don't understand, I am a Galvan from the planet Galvan Prime MKII and the planet Primus, where the Ultimatrix's alien DNA is store within the Codon Stream within. Right now, we are in a room I had built specifically to let me speak with you all and not worry about canon things and it's where I go to hide from Myaxx when she has her species' version of a human female's menstrual cycle that involves the tentacles on her face expelling a highly corrosive acid."
"What about meow?" Azmuth looks over at Taokaka and Carl, Nirvana sitting beside Carl in a seat as well with her arms crossed and her head resting on them.
"And these are my two students, Taokaka and Carl Clover. Don't mind them too much," Azmuth waves the two off.
"Now remember, Carl; let her rest."
"That is correct. She has just recovered from gaining wings, after all."
Azmuth sighs, "Ms. Litchi…Bang Shishigami…"
Bang is a young adult man with spiky swift back, slightly long brown hair, and hazel eyes. He has a long, X-shaped scar across his face. He wears a dark green modified ninja outfit with a big red scarf, silver gauntlets, black fingerless gloves, dark green harama pants that expose his thighs. He carries a giant nail on his back.
Litchi is a young beautiful, sexy adult woman with long black hair tied into a bun, pink eyes, pink lipstick, and big boobs. On top of her hair is her pet panda, Lao Jiu. She wears a stylish Chinese doctor uniform with long white sleeves, a yin and yang brooch ribbon, a red vest, and a skirt dress that exposes her thighs.
"It's quite invigorating to learn about new allies to justice!" Bang declares with a hearty laugh.
"Bang, if you don't be silent during this whole thing, I will force you to eat Bell peppers the entire time," Azmuth threatens.
"Ulp," Bang steps back.
"Good. Now then, let's begin yet again," Azmuth informed as the screen rolls down and begins to display Ben turning into Brainstorm, "This…is Brainstorm. He is a Cerebrocrustaceans, which are a crab-like species from the Encephalonus system."
"Crab?" Taokaka drools as the screen shows a detail diagram of Brainstorm.
"Cerebrocrustaceans closely resembles giant red-brown crabs and have red/brown exoskeletons with small spikes around the face and on top of their head," Azmuth informed. A Cerebrocrustacean's head is very large with arms sprouting from each side," Azmuth informs, pointing to each part, "Cerebrocrustaceans have claws, six spider-like legs and a stubby torso. A Cerebrocrustacean's face is composed of only eyes and a mouth. For Brainstorm, the emblem and belt on him allow the alien to breathe on land."
"Excuse me, Mr. Azmuth?"
"Yes, Carl?"
"What is the difference between male and female Cerebrocrustaceans?"
"Excellent question, Carl. Unfortunately, we are currently unaware as to what the female of this species looks like because the women are all stay at home, so to speak," Azmuth admits.
"Oh my. That seems dreadful for the women there," Litchi notes.
"True," Azmuth nods as it began to show Brainstorm in battle and beating one million supercomputers in chess, "Cerebrocrustaceans are able to open the exoskeleton plates on their head to reveal an enormous brain. This lets them, by thinking hard enough, produce electrical storms, generate and shoot electricity and generate force fields from their brain. Cerebrocrustaceans can encase other things in force fields and move them around. They are extremely intelligent, making them speak in a higher diction and can shoot electricity from their pincers."
=Impressive. Truly mind over matter for these beings= Bang holds up a sign.
"Indeed. Now then, let's move on to a bit of their history," Azmuth informs as the screen shows four planets surrounded by storms, "Primitive Cerebrocrustaceans took advantage of the storms surrounding the Encephalonus planets and it in turn resulted in the destruction (by using up all resources) of the planets from Encephalonus to Encephalonus III. By the time they arrived at Encephalonus IV, Cerebrocrustaceans had evolved in order to create electricity instead of taking it away from the environment. Modern Cerebrocrustaceans are deeply ashamed of their ancestors being responsible for the destruction of Encephalonus and the two other planets in their solar system."
=How dreadful. A species that had to lose so much just to evolve= Bang notes.
"True," Azmuth nods as he turns to the two students, "May I see your notes?"
"Okay!" Taokaka cheers.
She hands Azmuth her notebook. He looks in and sighs, expecting the results. The book was filled with drawings of Taokaka beating up Brainstorm, eating Brainstorm with the children in the Kaka, and her using Brainstorm's carcass as a bed. Carl hands Azmuth his next. In it was a detailed drawing of Brainstorm with various notes in it.
"Excellent job as always," Azmuth nods before facepalming as Taokaka gropes and presses her face into Litchi's bust, Bang looks flustered as he turns away, "Good heavens, Taokaka!"
"Tao, that's enough!" Litchi orders in a heavy bush as she pushes away the catgirl, "Please don't do that for the rest of today and I'll make you some yummy Meatbuns."
"Yay! Meatbuns! Thanks, Booby Lady!" Taokaka beams as Azmuth feels a headache coming on.
