Now, Ben, Gwen and I were in an ice cream place, trying to get ice cream cones, while Max used the ATM outside.
Max: "How much do I need from here?" He was thinking to himself as he got up to it. Some guys in an old pickup truck snuck up behind him. A big, fat guy got out, and pushed him aside from behind. The skinny one stayed in the car, and the big one tied a hook on a chain to the rear of it. Inside, we were just ordering.
Gwen: "Do you have anything with no fat in it?"
Guy: "Napkins. How 'bout you?" He was looking at Ben.
Ben: "Rocky road, please."
Guy: "Alrighty then. You?" I was about to say something, when I heard a truck start up, and turned around.
Kyle: "Chocolate. She's sharing with me." I went out, and became Upgrade. I merged with the truck's engine, and shut it down.
Skinny dude: "What gives? The engine won't start!"
Fat guy: "What the hell?!"
Upgrade: "Sorry, sir. Your access has been denied." I appeared from behind the wheel, and threw him out of the truck.
Fat guy: "Hey!" He threw the anchor at me, but I grabbed it, and became Diamondhead. I reeled him in, and socked him in the face. He fell backwards. The skinny guy brought out a crowbar, and hit me with it, but I was unphased.
Diamondhead: "Are all crooks this dumb?" I took the crowbar from him, and hit him across the face with it. He fell unconscious. The fat guy got up, and punched me. He only hurt himself. I socked him in the face again. He fell over, and I stepped on his belly.
Max: "A little, um, extreme, don't you think?"
Diamondhead: "Takes all kinds, Max."
Ben was eating his ice cream as he got out, and Gwen was holding the chocolate one.
Gwen: "Kyle stops yet another robbery. Kyle at hmm… 13. Bad guys at a big fat 0!"
Diamondhead: "Can I help it I'm so awesome?"
Max: "I'll call the police."
Diamondhead: "So, where do we go from here?"
Max: "Ben's Aunt Vera's house."
Ben immediately stopped eating his ice cream.
Diamondhead: "Ben?"
Ben: "NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!" He ran away in one direction, while his ice cream cone was quickly melting. I went XLR8, and stopped right in front of him.
Ben: "I'm not going there!"
XLR8: "It's our next stop, so I'm not complaining."
Gwen: "Yeah, Ben. Chill."
Ben: "I AM chill!! I just don't like old people!!!" I grabbed him, and started carrying him so his upper half was going down my back.
Ben: "Let me go-oo!!" He licked his ice cream as I took him back.
Some time later…
Gwen and I were sharing the chocolate ice cream.
Gwen: "It's my turn! You've had enough licks already!"
Kyle: "OKAY! Calm down. It's just that since this isn't fat-free, I thought you wanted less of it."
Gwen: "Yeah, but… I still want some!" She started licking quickly.
Ben: "Ahh… lover's quarrel."
Kyle: "Excuse me, Benjamin Tennyson? I didn't hear that quite right. You mind saying it again?" I got the Omnitrix ready as I said it.
Ben (noticing and freaking out): "Sorry!"
Kyle: "I thought so."
Gwen: "Okay. Here you go." I got it back, and noticed half was gone.
Kyle: "Hey!"
Gwen: "I'm done. Now you can finish the rest."
Kyle: "Fine." I did just that, and we had pulled up to right in front of Vera's place.
Max: "Here we are."
Ben: "You have no right to use my full name like that, man."
Kyle: "I had the right, then, Ben-JI."
Ben: "Now that's just going over the deep end!"
Max: "Quiet!" We both shut our mouths, and Gwen just giggled.
Gwen: "Boys. Ha ha ha!" She left with a smirk on her face. Ben and I sat silently for a few seconds.
Kyle: "Ben, I think we've been had."
Ben: "Me, too."
Kyle: "We never speak of that incident again."
Ben: "Yep."
We both came out, and we saw Vera.
Vera: "Oh! There's Ben! Hi!" She got to pinching his cheeks. I laughed at this.
Ben: "Ow!"
Vera: "And aren't you just handsome!" She got my cheeks, until I got her arms off me.
Kyle: "No kidding, Ben. Ow…" Ben laughed at my pain. Vera was definitely not skinny, but not huge, had white hair the same color as Max's, and had a purple dress on. She had a REALLY happy expression on her face.
Vera: "And what's your name?"
Kyle: "I go by 12 names. Kyle, Wildmutt, Fourarms, Grey Matter, XLR8, Upgrade, Diamondhead, Ripjaws, Stinkfly, Ghostfreak, Heatblast, and Nessy."
Vera: "Okay… I'll just call you Kyle." I sighed. We entered her house.
Ben: "Ugh!? Why do old people's houses always smell like sweaty socks?"
Kyle (whispering to him): "Ben, ixnay on the sultingintay."
Ben: "I don't see you enjoying this, yet."
Kyle: "At least I'm not complaining."
Ben: "Ow…"
Kyle: "Much."
Vera: "What have you all been doing this summer?"
Max: "Driving."
Gwen: "Boys…" She was referring to me. (Author's note: I don't mean 'do' in the sexual way.)
Ben: "Playing Sumo Slammer on my GBA."
Kyle: "Kicking evil alien butt."
Vera: "Oh you…" I sighed again. Ben smirked. I gave him a 'death stare'. He backed down immediately.
Max: "What's cookin' tonight, huh, Vera?"
Vera: "You'll see when it's done." Gwen walked over to a statue of a red-colored bird.
Gwen: "Is this a red-tailed swallow?"
Vera: "Yes. And-"
Gwen and Vera: "They have the highest pitched mating call of all birds. (Both do a bird screech)"
Ben: "Ugh…" I just sighed.
Ben: "You're bored too, eh?"
Kyle: "Yeah… a little." Ben and I just lied back on both sofas the entire time until dinner was ready. It was gelatin with pork chop bits and cauliflower. Ben and Gwen immediately did not eat it. I ate everything but the cauliflower. Ben put his dinner onto Gwen's plate and said, "Boy, I'm stuffed!" and faked a burp, but sounded surprisingly real. (I still think he faked this, though.)
Vera: "Do you want candy, Ben?"
Ben: "Now that's more like it!" He ate a piece, and said, "Yuck! Coffee-flavor?"
Kyle: "I'll pass on the candy, too, Vera." I looked at Gwen's plate, and asked, "You gonna eat all that, Gwen?"
Gwen: "You can have it all." She passed it over to me, and I, again, ate everything but the cauliflower.
Kyle (thinking): "This place may be boring, but she cooks one mean gelatin pork chop."
Ben: "I'll be, uh, out."
Kyle: "Me, too."
Vera: "Okay. Be back soon." We left the house, and started walking around.
Kyle: "I admit it Ben. This place is anything but cool."
Ben: "Yeah. It's downright boring!"
Kyle: "How about I make it less boring?"
Ben: "How?" I put the Omnitrix on. Ben smiled deviously. So did I.
Ben: "All heroes have some sort of dark side…"
Kyle: "I know!" I made myself Ghostfreak.
Ben: "Now, where's something we can mess with?"
Ghostfreak: "That golf cart. Sit in the passenger's seat. I've driven one before."
Ben: "Okay, but how is this…" I turned invisible.
Ben: "Oh. I like your style, dude."
Ghostfreak: "Even someone as mature as me likes to mess around for a bit, Ben." I started up the golf cart, and drove through the whole suburb with it. The other old people looked on with startled and surprised faces.
Ben: "What? Ain't you guys ever seen a self-driving golf cart? Wave of the future, people!" I sighed.
I then smelled something, and parked the golf cart.
Ben: "What is it?"
Ghostfreak: "I smell something tasty. Follow me." I turned visible, flew towards the smell, and we both got behind a bush.
Ghostfreak: "Pie!"
Ben: "Get it! It's asking to be taken off!" He whispered it. It was on an open windowsill. I turned invisible, and prepared to take it, when I was watching an old lady try to swat a fly. She had a hard time.
Ghostfreak: "Heh. Too fast for ya, lady." The fly got on the ceiling, and she jumped onto it, and ate it.
Ghostfreak: "Whoa! Ninja old lady!"
Ben: "What?"
Ghostfreak: "Forget the pie. A NINJA old lady made it."
Ben: "NINJA old lady?"
Ghostfreak: "Let's try something else back at Vera's. I had an idea." We took the 'self-driving' golf cart route.
In the house…
Vera: "You can hear the ocean through this seashell, Gwen."
Gwen picked it up, held it to her ear, and…
Ghostfreak: "Gwen… Gwen… Gwen…" She looked very disturbed. I appeared in her face with a "Boo!"
Gwen: "AAAHHHH!!!" Max and Vera looked in her direction, and turned invisible immediately after.
Max: "What's wrong?"
Gwen: "Ghostfreak…" She looked scared as all crap.
Vera: "Ghostfreak?"
Max: "I'm sure it's okay."
Vera: "*Yawns* I'll head off to bed now." She did just that.
Max: "We'll keep it quiet."
Gwen: "That was so not funny."
Max: "Kyle, I know you're there." I reappeared, and Ben came out from under a table.
Gwen: "Ben?"
Ben: "He phased me in through the wall. I stayed under the table."
Max: "What were you thinking?"
Ghostfreak: "Aw c'mon Max. Ben and I were just having a little fun."
Ben: "Yeah. No big deal, Grandpa."
Max: "You scared Gwen too badly."
Ghostfreak: "All I said was, 'boo'."
Gwen: "Don't do that again!"
Ghostfreak: "I'm sorry. Ben and I will just go out again, okay?"
Max: "Be back before it gets too dark out, alright?"
Gwen: "No Ghostfreak attacks either, alright?"
Ghostfreak: "Understood." I phased Ben through the wall, and we took the golf cart again.
Old lady: "That's the third time I've seen that self-driving golf cart."
Old man: "Mine, too."
Ben: "Want one?"
Old lady: "No thank you."
Old man: "I'm fine too, thanks."
Ben: "Okay. But you don't know what you're missing."
Ghostfreak: "Ben…"
Ben: "Let's go, golf cart! Away!!!" I sighed, and just drove off a bit, until we saw a guy near the dumpster.
Ghostfreak: "He's not a garbage man, and there's no truck in sight. I'll check it out."
Ben: "What should I do?"
Ghostfreak: "Stay here for now." I phased through the gate, and watched him push the dumpster aside, and said, "Strong old man!" He heard me, and turned his head 360 degrees around, and saw Ben.
Ghostfreak: "We're off!" I got into the passenger's seat while Ben moved into the drivers seat.
Ghostfreak: "Please tell me you can drive, Ben."
Ben: "Yeah, I do! I watched you!" He started it, and went off at full speed. The old man burst down the gate, and ran right for us.
Ghostfreak: "Fatser, Ben!"
Ben: "Trying!!" I became Diamondhead, and started shooting diamond shards at him. They all went right through him.
Diamondhead: "Not good! I got an idea!" I went Stinkfly, and shot goop at his feet, which he jumped over.
Ben: "Not working!"
Stinkfly: "Is this really the fastest you can go?"
Ben: "Yes!" He was ganging on us.
Stinkfly: "Grr…" I went Upgrade, and merged with the golf cart, and sped it up considerably. Ben grabbed on to the wheel, but didn't turn it at all, because I controlled the turning. The old man still followed us, but we were getting away from him.
Ben: "I think he's too slow for us now!" But, the old man jumped, and landed on top of the cart.
Ben: "Save us! NOW!!!" I extended a metal arm with a hand to grab him, but he seemed to 'ooze out of my grip.
Upgrade: "How would this guy quit?" We started going near a sprinkler system, and he freaked out, and ran away from us. I pulled over, and separated from the cart.
Ben: "Okay… He's very afraid of water."
Upgrade: "Hey, I'm afraid of it, too."
Ben: "You are?"
Upgrade: "Like this I am! I could short circuit if I'm not careful!"
Ben: "Oh. Right. We'd better get Grandpa and Gwen."
I turned XLR8, then zoomed off to Vera's house. I then went Ghostfreak, and phased through the walls, with Ben. I made us solid again, and became Wildmutt.
Ben: "Kyle! What do you think you're doing?"
Wildmutt: "Roar."
Ben: "Um…"
Wildmutt: "Roar (sighing)" I made sniffing noises.
Ben: "Oh. I see now." I detected no other scents but Gwen's, Max's and Vera's, and changed back.
Kyle: "There's no one else here. We'd better tell Max and Gwen." Ben nodded.
Kyle: "Gwen?"
Gwen: "There you two are? Where have you been?" She came in from the bathroom.
Kyle: "We just were going to have some more innocent fun, and then we found an old guy near the dumpster. He threw it aside, heard me talk, and we had to escape him. He followed us until we got near a sprinkler system, and he ran off, and now we're back here."
Gwen: "That is the funniest story I've heard."
Ben: "It looked like the guy who lived next door to Aunt Vera was chasing us, too. Please!"
Max: "Did he happen to ooze at any point?"
Gwen: "You actually believe these two?"
Max: "Gwen. Let them finish."
Kyle: "I grabbed him as Upgrade once, and he seemed to liquefy out, and he turned his head 180 degrees at least!"
Max: "Were there any others showing weird activity?"
Kyle: "There was a Ninja old lady earlier today."
Max: "That could mean only one thing, Kyle."
Kyle: "What?"
Max: "Limax."
Gwen: "Limax?"
Max: "Limax. Parasitic slime species. They love warm temperatures."
Ben: "Like here."
Max: "They tend to possess older people."
Kyle: "We have to stop them!"
Max: "We'll check the neighbor's house." We checked, and found absolutely nothing out of the ordinary.
Kyle: "Nothing. Absolutely nothing!"
Max: "Weird he'd leave it unlocked, too."
Gwen: "Let's head back. It's starting to get a little dark."
Kyle: "I'm feeling tired myself. Come on." We returned to Vera's place, and fell asleep for the night.
The next day…
I was fully awake, and had eaten breakfast.
Gwen: "*Yawn!*"
Ben: "*Yawn!*"
Kyle: "Finally!!"
Gwen: "You must have woken up early!"
Ben: "Yeah… *Yawn*"
Kyle: "Yes. I did." Vera came out from the back.
Vera: "Hello, kids. How are you today?"
Kyle: "Where's Max?"
Vera: "He's out on a walk."
Kyle: "Hmm…"
Gwen: "I found some coffee for you…" She dropped it, and Vera did the full splits right over it.
Vera: "CLEAN THIS UP! Now!"
Gwen: "Okay, Aunt Vera. Sorry…" She left, and went out.
Ben: "A Limax must've gotten Aunt Vera last night, Kyle!"
Kyle: "And maybe they got Max!"
Gwen: "I'll clean this up, first."
After 5 minutes…
I was Ghostfreak, with Gwen and Ben.
Gwen: "This is the dumpster?"
Ben: "Yeah. Kyle, check it out, okay?"
Ghostfreak: "No problem, Ben." I turned intangible and invisible, and looked through the wall between us and the dumpster.
Ben: "How's it look?"
Ghostfreak: "The coast seems to be clear." I phased back through, became Fourarms, and broke the wall down. Unfortunately, one of them found us. I tried fighting it off, but I couldn't do much against it at all. Gwen grabbed some leftover coffee, and dropped it on the guy, and he backed away, burning up.
Fourarms: "It's weakness is…"
Gwen: "Anything that's a liquid." I became Stinkfly, and shot slime at him, and he melted down to a puddle.
Stinkfly: "Seems Stinkfly's the best alien for this." We went out more, to see if we couldn't interrogate one of the Limaxes still out there, and I got one.
Ben: "Where's Aunt Vera and Grandpa Max?"
Limax old man: "They're under the dumpster… It's a secret passageway…"
Gwen: "Thank you!" She threw coffee on him, and he melted. We found Grandpa Max, and we knew it was a Limax, so I went Fourarms to fight him instead. He had tracked us down after we interrogated the other Limax, and he had a whole army with him.
Max Limax: "There are the kids! After them!"
Fourarms: "Ben, Gwen! Move the dumpster! I got these guys!" They ran off, and I became Diamondhead. I made a diamond wall, and I thought they were blocked, but each Limax oozed through, and I went Fourarms again to pound my way out of getting pummeled myself. They each came back many times, and I threw them off me, and punched quite a few trying to get on me. The Vera Limax also attacked me, and they dogpiled me, until I went XLR8, and ran around in a circle, bl;owing them all off me.
Ben: "Where's the secret button?"
Gwen: "Um… here!" She pushed it, and called me. "Kyle! We opened it!" I ran for them, grabbed them both, and dove down the hole.
XLR8: " We have to keep moving…" I became Wildmutt, and roared.
Ben: "He wants us to get on his back."
Gwen: "Um… how do you know what he's saying?"
Wildmutt: "Roar!"
Ben: "I speak mutt."
Gwen: "Don't need to tell me twice!" I ran off, and the Max, Vera, and neighbor Limaxes were chasing us. Thankfully, I was on fours. When Max caught up to me, I punched him, and he kicked me back. I then bit his leg, and socked him, which only made my hand go through him. He then kicked me off of him, and I went Stinkfly, and shot slime at him. He jumped, stretched out his arm, and socked me. I went Fourarms, grabbed his arm, pulled him towards me, and socked him right through the head. He fell unconscious, apparently. I went Wildmutt again, and we found a spaceship.
Gwen: "The Limax spaceship!"
Ben: "Grandpa!"
I became XLR8, and started looking for Max and Vera. Each old person was in a pod.
XLR8: "Wow." I broke Max's pod.
Max: "Oh… that was a bad dream."
XLR8: "Well, you're gonna be okay now, Max."
Max: "I know."
The three Limaxes found us, and became their true forms. They were giant walking masses of green slime.
Limax that was Max: "No! They found our ship!"
Limax that was Vera: "What do we do?"
Limax that was Vera's neighbor: "They have been marinating in those pods for long enough! We can leave!"
XLR8: "Not if I melt you first!!" I became Heatblast, and started chucking fireballs at them. They became a Giant Limax.
Giant Limax: "We love heat! Of all kinds! Why do you think we came in the summer?"
Heatblast: "Oh man…" I became Stinkfly, and went to shoot slime, but they caught me, and slammed me into a wall.
Max: "Kyle!"
Ben: "We have to get people off of the ship! Now!" They proceeded to do that as I distracted the Giant Limax.
Stinkfly: "Oh… What the?" I noticed my symbol glow yellow.
Robotic voice: "New Alien form activated. Transforming now."
Stinkfly: "What the…" A huge flash of light came out of me, and I was a Limax myself. I was a little slime with a symbol on my face.
Limax me: "Oh man…"
Ben: "Is this bad?"
Max: "I don't think so."
Limax me: "Why do you want to take them?"
Giant Limax: "For our food!"
Limax me: "That's not gonna happen!" I became Upgrade, and shot a laser beam at him. He dodged it, and I blew up a pipe, which released water. I became Ripjaws in the nick of time to stop myself from short circuiting.
Ripjaws: "Ahh…" The giant Limax was disintegrated, and the ship launched without anyone on it. Ben, Gwen, and Max got everyone out.
Ripjaws: "Well, the Limaxes are defeated. Now what?"
Max: "We get each person back to their homes."
Gwen: "But that could take hours!" I became XLR8.
XLR8: "Not now it won't. It'll just be a couple minutes."
Minutes later…
We were in Vera's front yard.
Vera: "I'm sorry you have to leave so soon, and Kyle, I'm sorry if I bored you and Ben too much."
Kyle: "It wasn't all bad. Loved the gelatin pork chop thing."
Vera: "Which is why I made some for the road for you."
Kyle: "Thank you Vera."
Max: "See you another time, Vera."
Vera: "Oh, and Kyle, good luck fighting those aliens."
Kyle: "Thanks. But this gelatin pork chop is luck enough! Bye!"
She waved, and we left.
Ben: "You like that stuff?"
Kyle: "Jell-O, pork chops, come on! Who wouldn't?" I put it in the fridge for later. I then turned on the Omnitrix, and turned it to the Limax.
Ben: "The Limax?"
Kyle: "Naming him Paraslime. You like that?"
Ben: "Definitely works for us." I became him.
Paraslime: "Oh yeah!!" I snuck across the floor of the RV, and snuck up Max's arm. Max turned, found me, and screamed.
Max: "A Limax! AHHH!!!"
Paraslime: "It's just me, Max! Kyle!"
Max: "Don't ever do that again!" I changed back.
Kyle: "Just like with Gwen. Haha!!"
The end. Paraslime is my newest addition to the Omnitrix. Will he be useful, or not? Most likely not too much.
