- We arrived. - said Grandpa and parked his flying bus at the entrance to Fort DNA.

- Will you come with us? - Ashley asked.

- No, you don't need my help. And I'm too old for all this. - Max said with a smile. Although, one could easily feel behind his words, a deep sadness.

- As you say. But, here, take this gift. Happy Birthday. - I said and took out a chocolate cake intended for grandfather. True, for another, but I think he will not be offended. Besides, I can always buy another one.

- Thanks. Although, my stomach will not be happy with such a large amount of sugar. - Grandfather said jokingly, accepting the cake.

- Nothing, once a year is possible. In extreme cases, you will make yourself a new stomach. I think modern medicine allows this. - With a smirk, I said.

- Ha ha ha, yes, I think you're right. Okay guys, you gotta go. But, do not forget to visit the old man before leaving. - Max replied.

- Necessarily. - I said walking outside. Ashley followed me and waved to grandfather with a smile.

When the bus left, Ashley asked:

- What are we going to do now? Do you have a plan to help Ben?

- Honestly, no. I will act on a whim. Let's see if younger Ben's influence can be useful. - I said as I entered the building.

- Do you think you can help? Still, the local Ben has serious problems. Here the help of a good psychologist would not hurt. - Ashley spoke up as she followed.

- In this, you are of course right. True, from the grandfather's story, it is clear that he will never accept the help of an outsider. Let's hope that our help, with 10-year-old Ben, is exactly what the local Ben needs. - I said with a sigh, while simultaneously activating the Tattoo of Luck. Now, I'll need all the luck I can.

- I hope you're right. - Ashley said softly, having long forgotten that she sort of announced a boycott to me.

*BOOM*

- Let's go, it looks like there's a battle going on upstairs. - I said after hearing the sounds of battle.

Rising into the air, with the help of telekinesis, I flew towards the noise. Having climbed several dozen floors, Ashley and I found ourselves in a room filled with various cryo-capsules. And inside, we were met by my old friends.

- We got on well. - I said, drawing the attention of the newly resurrected Vilgax and Dr. Animo, with the body of a gorilla. Next to them, unconscious on the floor, lay a trio of Galactic Enforcers. Useless as always.

- Who are you? - Animo exclaimed. It looks like I've never met Animo 10'000.

- On your arm is Omnitrix. He will be useful to me. - Vilgax 10'000 said and raised his genetically modified right hand and fired several organic bombs at me. Looks like Dr. Animo played a lot with his DNA.

Quickly transforming into Upchuck, I jumped forward and swallowed all the bombs, which I immediately digested. Not expecting such speed from me, Vilgax was shot in the face by my explosive vomit and flew into another room, through the wall that he had broken through with his body. By the way, it turns out I did get the Perk Upchuck.

- Deal with GorillAmino. - I ordered Ashley, after which I turned into XRL8 and sped off after Vilgax.

***

- Vilgax, you have no idea how glad I am to see you. I missed. - I said with great joy in my voice, while smacking the alien on the head with my foot at full speed.

- I don't know who you are. And I don't care at all. When resurrected, Animo downloaded all the information about the Omnitrix aliens into me, so I know your every character and their every move. I will destroy you, and then I kill Tennyson and his family. - Vilgax said aggressively as he got to his feet, attacking me with his retractable tentacle.

- Is that how? How interesting. But, I have to disappoint you. Your information will not help you much. Still, my fighting style is quite different from Ben's. - I said quickly, dodging the tentacle at the same time. A nasty thing.

And then, to prove my point, I turned into a Humungosaur for the first time and grabbed Vilgax's tentacle.

- It will hurt. - I said, while increasing in size. Pulling on the tentacle, I pulled Vilgax in and with all my power, hit him on the head. As a result of the impact, the body of Vilgax broke through the floor and flew down.

Transforming into Gax, I jumped into the hole and quickly caught up with the falling Vilgax and added acceleration to him.

His widened eyes when he saw a member of his own kind were very funny. Transforming again, this time to Cannonbolt, I curled up into a ball and fell right on top of Vilgax, who finally landed on the floor.

- Graaa… - Unwilling to take the beating any longer, Vilgax growled and attacked me with an electrically charged punch that he delivered with his left arm.

Fortunately, I sensed the danger in advance and turned into a Buzzshock. Quickly absorbing all the electrokinetic energy, I sent it back to Vilgax, sparing no electricity of my own.

- I have to admit, you learned a couple of new tricks. Although, this is unlikely to save you. - I said.

And before Vilgax got up, I turned into a Four Arms and hit the alien with all four of my hands. Surprisingly, Vilgax almost had time to react and defend himself. Although, this did little to help him, and due to the impact, he flew back, knocking out the window of the building with his body, flying out into the street.

Before Vilgax began to fall down, I turned into Jetray and caught up with the villain. After firing neuro-shock beams at him, I gave him acceleration and he began to fall down again.

But this time, Vilgax did not remain unanswered and again threw his organic bombs at me. Without departing from the classics, I turned into a Eatle, swallowed the bombs and fired from my horn, the energy received earlier.

Vilgax began to fall even faster, but before he landed, I was already waiting for him, in the form of a Cloak. I grabbed it and together we moved into the Shadow Dimension, through the nearest shadow. Here, I can not hold back and use all my most destructive hero.

- Where are we? - exclaimed Vilgax, hitting me in the chest with his elbow. Fortunately, I managed to transform in time and calmly grabbed the alien's hand.

- A place where I can have fun with you. But don't worry, I won't kill you. After all, it's not up to me to defeat you. But, unfortunately for you, only humiliation and pain awaits you in this place. A lot of pain. - with a tiger grin, after all, I'm Rath now, I said.

For a second, I even thought I saw fear in Vilgax's eyes, but it quickly passed, and he again attacked me with his electricity.

Transforming into a Lodestar, I took control of the metallic elements of Vilgax's suit and sent him on a new flight, into the depths of the shadow dimension.

- Ah, Vilgax, I missed our battles so much. Just so you know, you're a great punching bag. - Turning into Heatblast, I called out with a huge smile. Looks like my inner sadist has awakened.

(Ashley POV)

- Well, where are they? - asked Gwendolyn, pacing up and down the room.

It's been half an hour since Lex went to fight Vilgax. During this time, I calmly defeated Dr. Animo and unscrewed his head from the body of the gorilla so that he would not escape anywhere. After that, Gwendolyn returned for me and together we flew to the adult Ben's base, where I met him and gave the head of Dr. Animo.

Since Lex hadn't returned yet, Gwendolyn was worried that Vilgax might have won. Unlike her, I was confident in my boyfriend, so I wasn't worried at all. This is not his first Vilgax.

- Calm down, Gwen. Lex fought much stronger opponents. Remember the same Aggregor. - said the adult Ben, who was in the form of a runner and rushed around the laboratory, doing some work.

- But this Vilgax is much stronger than before. - said Gwendolyn anxiously.

- Ha ha ha, that's right. I added bioamplifiers and genetic implants to it. He is my masterpiece. That guy is definitely screwed. Aha haha ​​ahahha… - Dr. Animo's head said while still laughing hysterically.

- Shut up. - shouted 10-year-old Ben and hit the flask with the head held by Max.

- Ben, don't say that. - Grandpa Max scolded.

- But, Grandpa. I don't understand why this guy can fight Vilgax and I'm stuck here? He's only a few years older than me. - cried little Ben in a whining voice.

- Because, unlike you, he always knows what he's doing. - said the older Ben.

- Also, he's smarter and prettier than you. ; 10-year-old Gwen could not help herself and quipped.

- Hey. / Hey. - Both Ben shouted the same. It seems that these words hooked both.

The skirmish that had begun was stopped by the notification sound on the computer. Running to his desk, 30-year-old Ben read the new information and said:

- They are back.

- Where are they? - asked 10-years-old Ben and Gwen, Gwendolyn, Grandpa Max, and, oddly enough, Dr. Animo at the same time.

- On the roof. - said the older Ben, and dashed off to the roof.

- Hey, wait for me. - shouted the younger Ben, and turning into the same alien, he ran after his older version.

- Let's go faster. - shouted 10-year-old Gwen.

- Okey. Hold on tight. - said Gwendolyn and grabbing her younger version, she flew after her cousin.

- We should probably go there too. - I said and using telekinesis, I picked up grandfather and flew after everyone. Dr. Animo was still in Max's hands.

When we arrived, everyone else just stood there and watched Lex beat up Vilgax. He was not in the form of an alien, but only used his Armament Mana on a full body.

Hitting the alien in the chest, Lex moved a little to the side and said with a smile: - Well, what? Satisfied with how I fight without using the Omnitrix? Just like a real man. So, you kind of said?

'Oh my god, he's hot right now.' - I involuntarily thought, looking at how Lex dominates Vilgax.

- I WILL DESTROY YOU!!! - roared Vilgax, struggling to his feet.

Unlike Lex, Vilgax was far from okay right now. Wounds and bruises could be seen all over his body. Almost all of his body was covered in his own blood. One of his hands was missing a few fingers, and his face was missing all the tentacles. Although, this did not stop him from fighting like a real berserker.

Dodging Vilgax's last attack, Lex jumped into the air and kicked the alien in the back of the head with the heel of his foot. From the impact, Vilgax was slammed into the roof and he made a rather scary sound.

- Well, everything. I think that's enough. You can finish with it. - Lex said with a smile as he lifted his cover.

- Finally. - 10-year-old Ben exclaimed loudly and, turning into a stink bug, flew to Vilgax. Although, the latter managed to get to his feet and dodged the attack.

- Well, why are you like that? He can't do it alone. - 30-year-old Ben asked with a sigh as Lex came closer to us. In proof of the previous words, the younger Ben just received a direct blow to the head from Vilgax.

- Nothing, it will be useful for him to get some kind of combat experience. Besides, if you don't want to watch him get nuts, go and help him. - Lex said with a smile, looking into the eyes of an adult Ben.

- Ehh… Okay. - Sighing heavily, said Ben 10'000 and turning into some kind of flying alien, he chased Vilgax and 10-year-old Ben, who had already fallen off the roof.

- Isn't that too much? - 10-year-old Gwen asked worriedly.

- Do you think it's right? - asked Gwendolyn in the same tone, looking at her cousin flying away.

- Yes, I think in the heat of battle, they will be able to communicate well. - Lex said with a smile.

- All right, let's get on the bus. Let's see how their battle goes, just in case. - Grandpa Max said as the RV automatically landed next to us.

- This can't be… - Dr. Animo said in shock, finally moving away from the battle he had seen earlier, when we all took our places.
