02x10 - Ben 10,000 Returns

[bunniefuu]

(By Muntasir)

Coward!

You can't hide from me!

I'm not hiding.

I'm making an entrance.

Tennyson!

Really, eon?

Attacking me all by yourself in

my own headquarters.

You call that a plan?

I don't need a plan to

defeat you.

And incidentally, I didn't come

alone.

Sure, it's all fun

and games until someone loses an

eye.

Any last words,

Tennyson?

I'm collecting them.

I've got two words

for you...

Ultimate Humungousaur!

Arcticguana!

But wait, there's more!

Heatblast!

Impressive.

In all my years hunting

alternate versions of you, I've

never met one with your

abilities.

Still, I shouldn't be surprised,

considering.

Considering what?

Why are you doing this, eon?

When we fought before, we...

That wasn't me,

Tennyson.

And soon, it won't have been

you.

I'm not just gonna

stand here and let you nail me

with that time-ray.

Clockwork!

That's right... I've got

time-traveling powers, too.

No!

Hello, Ben!

Good to see you,

Paradox.

Love how you don't show up till

it's all over.

It's far from over, old

friend.

It's barely begun.

I liked it better when

I used to drive.

We do seem to spend

less time together since

everybody got their licenses.

Well, consider this a

reunion.

Quality time, tracking

down the source of the mystery

transmission your ultimatrix

found.

It's either an

uncataloged alien or yet another

feature I can't figure out.

Or it's broken again.

Which way?

We're right on top of

it.

Creepy museum

basement.

Figures.

Whatever it is, it's got

to be in here.

There's probably a

crowbar around somewhere.

We already broke into

the museum.

What's the big deal?

Let's see what we've

got.

That's weird.

Are those magic symbols?

Not in any language I

know.

Ow!

How you doing back

there?

I've been better.

Spidermonkey!

Wow.

You learn that in karate school?

Saw it in an old movie.

Missed me.

But I left you a present

anyway.

Well, that's the last of 'em.

Whoever they are.

Oh, come on!

What's the big deal?

We b*at 'em.

They escaped, and we

don't know what they wanted or

even why the ultimatrix led us

to them.

But other than that...

Yeah. We won.

]] You didn't win, Benjamin.

Maybe you missed

it... bad guy, completely

vaporized.

]] Eon has not been destroyed.

You merely knocked him down your

own timeline.

Wait.

He said he's been traveling

cross-time.

Do you think he tricked me?

]] Into sending him into your

own past, in order to face you

when you were younger and less

powerful?

Yes.

I've got to do

something.

]] You already are.

Don't!

That's how they got out before.

I don't think so.

I'm getting a weird vibe off of

it, almost like I'm sensing my

own manna.

I'm gonna try a spell of

revelation.

Ostendo specialist.

That's us when we were

kids.

You did a spell to

show the past?

No.

It's just supposed to reveal

secrets.

Who's that?

I don't remember that happening.

Me either.

You okay?

Spell's broken.

I don't know why.

Maybe somebody erased

your memories, or... or, uh...

Or maybe it was time

travel and something happened

to change our history?

Good guess.

"Good guess"?

It's completely wrong.

Well, wrong but

clever.

Professor Paradox?

Hello, children!

Who's your friend?

Are you...

That's right, Ben.

I'm you, only even more awesome!

Ben , at your

service.

I heard about you.

You're the jerk from the future.

I'm a different

Ben , .

But I do remember going to that

future back when we were .

What a buzzkill that guy was.

You're my real future.

Yes, if nothing occurs to

change it.

That's why I've...Bent the rules

of time and brought you

together.

We're in trouble.

We've been in

tougher spots.

One time, when I was president

of earth...

Wait.

I'm gonna be president of earth?

Just long enough

to defeat the third Vilgaxian

invasion.

It turned out that Gwen was

better at the day-to-day stuff.

You're a shoo-in for a second

term, red.

Really?

Spoiler alert, Benjamin.

Let the children discover their

own futures...

If indeed they survive the

present thr*at.

We should take this along.

It's the source of our

difficulties.

Okay. All strapped in.

You sure about this?

We're headed to the middle of

nowhere.

One only hopes it's far

enough.

Nothing ever makes

sense when you're around.

That's a fair criticism.

Which still doesn't

explain how Ben met himself in

the future, but it wasn't this

guy.

You traveled into cross-time.

Like a parallel world?

Exactly.

That's why the me in the

future didn't remember it

happening to him before.

But you remember all of

this.

Yeah, I do.

Okay, don't do that

again.

As Gwen guessed, cross-time

is made up of parallel versions

of the history we know.

There are hundreds of them... a

world where Gwen found the

Omnitrix, a world where albedo

turned to alien x and was

trapped motionless for nearly a

year, a world where you didn't

have to destroy the Omnitrix to

defeat Vilgax.

Et cetera.

Ad infinitum.

These worlds are all every bit

as real as our own, but they

cannot... must not... be allowed

to leak into ours.

Which brings us to

our problem.

The hand of armageddon.

Very good, Ben.

It's a cross-time gateway,

existing in many worlds.

You saw into one

of them with your spell.

Wait a minute.

If you remember that, if you

remember this whole adventure,

what's the problem?

If you're me years from now,

we can't lose.

Because I'm you

years from now, if we lose,

the future ceases to be.

If you could speed up,

Kevin...

Wow, nobody ever asks

me to go faster.

It's just that a

cross-chronal warp is opening up

nearby.

In the cargo bay?

I'm afraid so.

I'll see you good people on the

ground...Probably.

Not a good sign.

I figured we were toast

as soon as Paradox left.

What do they want?

To crash us.

Yeah. No.

The one time I wanted rath!

What are you guys

doing back there?

You better not be messin' up my

ride!

Keep the ninjas

away from Kevin.

I'll be right back.

Where are you going?

Thought I'd step

outside.

Outside.
Jetray!

Whoa. Twice in one day.

Or was it...Twice in years?

The ninjas disappeared

as soon as we b*at them.

Yeah.

They do that.

You just landed a

spaceship.

From the outside.

Don't forget the cool part.

How do you do all that

without transforming?

I haven't bothered

to for years.

Not since I discovered my best

transformation.

Ultimate Ben?

What power comes with

that?

Pretty much all of

them.

You'll figure it out someday.

Yeah, great.

So, why did we fly the hand of

Armadoohickey all the way into

the desert?

]] To destroy it.

The ninjas work for a being

named eon, a creature from the

cross-time earth Gwen showed you

with her spell.

Eon was defeated

by the Ben of that world when he

destroyed their version of the

hand.

]] That Ben believed eon was

destroyed as well, but he

wasn't.

He was instead thrown out of

that reality and into

cross-time.

Since then, he's

been moving from one parallel

earth to the next, taking down

every Ben he can find.

Why?

]] We don't know.

But we do know that he needs

an operational hand of

armageddon to enter our world.

So we're gonna bust

it.

]] We're going to destroy the

hand throughout space and

time... every version.

Why don't you just do

it with your time-travel powers?

]] There are rules, Kevin.

I cannot interfere.

Excuse me, but aren't

you already interfering?

]] Touché.

Actually, I've just come to give

young Ben a warning, but that

can wait.

Until what?

]] Until I see if you survive.

Ready?

Ready.

Way big!

]] Shield us...lf you can.

Is that supposed to be

happening?

]] No. I've been deceived.

Stop! Stop!

He's using your power to open a

breach!

I'm free.

Not for long!

Eon irradiated way big with

accelerated time.

I'm afraid he's gone.

So is any other

transformation he hits with that

beam.

Be careful, Ben.

He's the one who better

be careful.

Swampfire!

Ultimate

swampfire!

Take them down hard!

Accelerate!

Tennyson.

Prepare to die.

Maybe

later.

Where...

Right

behind you.

How about you explain yourself?

Why att*ck me over and over?

Our paths are

intertwined, in this and every

other timeline.

It's over.

Give it your best

sh*t, eon.

Diamond doesn't particularly

age.

I came here to destroy

your younger self, but plans can

change.

Contego!

You hang around an anodite for

years, you pick up a few

tricks.

Weird that they don't

talk.

Probably just to

intimidate us.

Maybe.

Makes me curious, though.

Then let's take a look.

Statua!

It's gonna be

creepy.

I bet they don't even have

mouths.

Or something worse.

Ben...

Get over here!

This raises some

questions.

Yeah.

Like, where did you learn

Ninjitsu?

You've discovered our

secret.

You're not

destroying Ben Tennysons.

You're absorbing them.

I feed on their power

and make them my slaves.

When I absorb you, I'll finally

have the strength to replace

this timeline with a new one...

Where I will be the only

Ben Tennyson that exists.

I won't allow that, eon.

You cannot interfere,

time-Walker, and you know why.

True.

But should you dare proceed,

there is nowhere in all of space

and time you can hide from me.

I'll burn that bridge

when I come to it.

Now, I have a couple of

Ben Tennysons to absorb.

Eon didn't come through

the hand of armageddon... he

came from our watches.

And the whole

fight, he's been leading us away

from it.

Hold him off.

I got something to break.

Jetray!

No!

There he is!

Not so loud.

I'm trying to sleep.

Then sleep soundly in the

knowledge that eon is no more

and that all of the

cross-time worlds with which he

interfered will shortly return

to normal.

You knew this was going

to happen.

It happened to you before.

Eon had messed up

the timelines so bad.

I wasn't entirely sure I hadn't

ended up in a parallel world.

I can confirm that this is

the original timeline.

But the cost of victory was

high.

Young Ben lost way big and both

Swampfires today.

If only there were some way to

restore them...

Yeah, okay.

I get it.

I'll put them back on your

playlist.

While you're at it, how

about giving me master control?

Nice try, but I'm

already in enough trouble with

Azmuth.

There you go... I just unlocked

everything you've ever become up

until now.

Really? Thanks!

I also threw in a

few new ones...Because it'll

annoy Azmuth when he finds out.

Time to go.

But first, a warning to my young

friends.

Beware old George.

Beware the creature from beyond.

So long!

What did he mean by

that?

Who knows?

I never understand what he's

saying.

I just tune him out.

Whatever the problem is,

I've got ultimatrix to spare.

It is so hero time!

Muntasir Made this.
