Ben's birthday happened a few months later, and he celebrated it with his family, friends, and girlfriend. Things were going well for the alien hero.

However, all good things have to end sometime, and Ben's world is turned upside down when a young boy named Jimmy Jones reveals his secret identity. Like his girlfriend, he became world-famous, even though he didn't like it that much. Even though being famous did have its perks, like him being able to transform without hiding anymore, it had its problems, like a news anchor named Will Harang pestering him by calling him a menace to society. He was like his version of John Jameson to Spider-Man; however, at least Jamison had some reasons for disliking the masked hero.

When Ben and his team confronted the Young boy, they learned that he was trying to give Ben the attention he needed.

After confronting him, they learned that a strange new alien was stealing equipment from a secret rocket project. He was stealing the equipment to fix his spaceship so he could go home. They also learned that three more aliens were kidnapped by a being known as Aggregor.

As they met the other Andromeda aliens one by one, they were again kidnapped by Aggregor. Now, they must find them, but since they don't know where Aggregor is hiding, they must wait for more information.

It was a cool spring night. Ben, Gwen, and Kevin were at the library, waiting in line to get an autograph from the famous Jennifer Nocturne.

"Now bad boy Kevin 11 likes girly movies now…" Ben teased.

"A famous movie star comes to town, and you're not curious?" Kevin asked the teen superhero.

"No, not really, because I have an awesome girlfriend…" Ben answered.

"Aw, that is really sweet of you, Ben…" Gwen cooed at her cousin, who was caring for his girlfriend.

"I don't want to mess up this relationship like I did with Julie…" Ben said, remembering that he wasn't a great boyfriend to Julie.

As the trio continued talking, the limo stopped, and someone opened the door. Jennifer Nocturne came out and waved to her fans when five robbers jumped down and took her hostage. They were holding blasters in their hands.

"I guess this isn't a part of the meeting and greet?" Ben said as he got into action.

"Listen up! We want 10 million dollars in one hour, or it's vampire nighty-night for Jennifer Nocturne…" the first robber demanded.

"If we see your cops…" one of the robbers fired the blaster he was holding at the car.

Ben, Gwen, and Kevin decide to take action after the robber blows up the car. Ben activates the Ultimatrix and transforms into Spidermonkey.

"Spidermonkey…" Ben called out as the crowd here for him as he transformed into the blue monkey alien.

He shot a spiderweb from his tail. It punched the robber on the far left. One of the robbers decided to fire his blaster at the hero, only for him to dodge. He shot another blast, only to hit the street lamp. Spidermonkey used his tail web to stop the street lamp from hitting the civilians and moving toward the building. Even though he didn't like that, he did collateral damage. He had to save the people. He uses his web to swing down and kick the robber that shot him now. The robber beside the one Spidermonkey took out aimed his blaster at him before Gwen used her mana to grab the blaster, and Kevin knocked him out with a punch when he absorbed the ground for extra power. Spidermonkey stood in front of the last robber who held Jennifer in a chokehold, but he was now shaking in fear because he didn't want to deal with the alien superhero.

"So, how are we going to do this?" Spidermonkey asks in a serious tone.

The robber let go of Jennifer and ran off because he didn't want to deal with an alien monkey. He was stopped by a man in Orange armor who punched him out.

"Captain Nemesis! I'm your biggest fan!" Spidermonkey transforms back into Ben.

"No, Ben, I'm your biggest fan!" Jennifer interrupted as she kissed him on the lips.

The teenage superhero was completely baffled and shocked by the movie star's kiss, so he pushed her back slightly.

"I'm flattered that you're a fan of mine, but I already have a girlfriend already…" he told Jennifer.

"I don't see your girlfriend here?" she said.

"She is in Middleton right now, and I don't want her to think I'm cheating on her, so please tell the paparazzi you only kiss me to thank me for saving your life…" Ben asked her.

"But would you want to upgrade from a regular girl to me?" she asked the hero.

Ben was shocked that she would say that and decided to leave by activating the Ultimatrix and transforming into Jetray.

"Jetray!" he flew off.

Jennifer smiled, thinking that Ben was just acting shy around her, and she had to think of a way to get his attention to her and then his girlfriend.

Captain Nemesis made the fist that whitened his knuckles because of the disrespect Ben showed him and Jennifer.

Next day

Ben was relaxing in his room when his phone rang. It was Kim, who had called Ben after learning about the kiss. She was very upset, so Ben had to calm her down and explain what really happened.

"She kissed me, not the other way around, or I kissed her back. Plus, I think Will Harangue edited it. The footage should only show that she kissed me, not me pushing her back and telling her that I already had a girlfriend…" Ben told her.

"I believe you, Ben, after hearing that it means your news anchor is putting you down. I might need to help you get a good publisher or something…" Kim said.

"Thanks, Kim. I'm so glad that you're my girlfriend…" Ben said

You are so sweet, Ben…" Kim cooed.

"Anything for you, Kim…" Ben said.

"So? Want to go out on a date? I heard that Café Des Fleur just opened up in Bellwood." She asked her boyfriend.

"Well, yeah, that sounds great…" Ben said.

" I'll come over at six later…" She hung up the phone, and Ben smiled.

Suddenly, his phone rang once again, and he picked it up. "Hello?" he answered the phone.

"Hello there, Ben Tennyson. I am Captain Nemesis's manager, and I was wondering if you could come to the pier for a charity event for the children and then a little competition between you and Captain nemesis tommorow..." the man asked.

Ben was excited that he would meet his hero again and that maybe he could talk to him, unlike last time.

"What time should I be there?" Ben asked the manager.

The manager explained that the charity event would take place near the pier at 3:30. Ben agreed to this time because it would give them something to do before his date with Kim.

As he raced out of his room, he stopped at the front door and saw his ex-girlfriend, Julie, crossing her arms angrily at him.

"Julie!"
