Plot (Click to View)
Six years after the defeat of Garga-Daemonus and his cohorts, the Union has been having their little "vacation", so to say, just enjoying the fact that the villains have been far away. But what they don't know is that a new force is on the move. A force with plans so evil it makes Dr. Evil himself look like a total NEWB;
The Regulants
These villains are what seems to be a regular gathering of teenage children, but they are not to be taken for granted. These youngsters each have their own unique powers and weapons, in which they plan to use in their master plot;
They intend to shatter the most successful gathering of heroes ever in history; The Union of Justice, and - once the Union is shattered and defenseless - to consume the Earth into an everlasting darkness, warping it to a part of their home base; The Negative Dimension.
So now, The Union has two more enemies; The Regulants...and themselves.

Co-Leader - Nexev (Click to View)

Title: Arcanologist
Age: 16
Appearance: Somewhat tall for his age but incredibly skinny. Some Acne, black curly hair, glasses, red t-shirt, jeans, and a cameo fleece.
Personality: Nexev appears cold and emotionless to his foes. However to his allies he is remarkably cheerful and energetic, a large amount of his apparent coldness is because he is shy. If he has an idea he will think it through and write it down. He is constantly hungry. Pretty critical and brutal in his criticism.
Biography: Nexev was a social outcast, with society rjecting him he turned to the computer. One day Nexev became sick with fever an blacked out, the next thing he knew he was in a Negative Dimension. Nexev dicovered he had powers, he could cast magic that could amaze people even in this world. For once in his life he could become someone the world would respect. Nexev dedicated himself to reserch, how he got here and how he got his powers as well as ways to abuse them. This single-mindedness paid off and he became on of the most powerful spellcasters that currently live as well as tracking down several people who originated from his world. Together with Broken, he proposed that the people from the other dimnsions join under one faction, together they can become something greater than anybody in their home universe could ever dream of being. And thus was the Regulators born and after 6 years the world once again knows the meaning of fear.

Captain - Quint (Click to View)
Name: Quint 'Philly' Jaeger
Title: Catalyst; His closer friends annoyingly call him 'P-Dawg'
Age: 13
Personality: Quint is pretty sarcastic, and loves to jab insults here and there. He's often at odds with Fred, as he loves to make fun of him. To the others, he retains his insults and such, and often sides with Nexev. Due to his dislike of Fred, he also targets Kev on occasions, stating that 'he's just as annoying as that fucktard.' Due to his age, the group generally thinks he isn't as strong as themselves.
Biography: Quint is the 'ass' of the group, making fun of others, replying with sarcasm, and otherwise making life hell. He doesn't mind being insulted, as that means to him that he's won. Although he's decent in writing literature in general, he's quite modest and says he's horrible. Once he got sucked to the Negative Dimension, he met his MSNb****es buddies. As Nexev and Broken created their group, he decided he'd join, for the lulz.

Prologue - The Regulants
Boredom.
Too many times has it struck this young man, as he sat there in front of his Windows Vista Laptop. He was bored out of his mind, and sorta sappy about his situation. He was doing bad in school, his classmates always teased him by calling him "girl" or "lady" just because of the fact he had hair down to his shoulders, colored in a mixture of blond & brown. A sigh passed his lips as he opened his Account on YCM, scrolling through the Fan Fic and RP Sections rather quickly.
"Nothing..." he said for himself. This young man's name was Fredrik Lindell. He was all alone, except for his MSN buds. He had a few, most of them were buds from YCM. But somehow, one of them was the "ass" of the group, always joking with him about things he didn't see as jokes. Fredrik thought he was just what he said he was; an ass. But then again, that was his decision. Fred' had more positive pals anyways, like Hatake Kakashi, AKA Kevin. Fredrik sighed again, and looked into his computer screen, just zoning out. Suddenly, as he looked closer, he saw that the screen was digitalizing, and surrounding him as well. "W-What the hell?" he exclaimed, and tried to struggle free from the energy holding him, but in vain. Then, he felt himself dissolve. It's true. He dissolved into small particles, and was sucked into the computer. As the chaos was over, all that was left was a young man's Laptop...in an empty room.
~~~~~~~~~~
"Oi, think he will wake up?"
"Most plausible, though I believe the shock will rather knock him out again."
"Nah, c'mon now! He will wake up!"
Fredrik was hearing voices all around him, and he opened his eyes, and saw that he was in a laying position. Above him, he saw three persons look at him;
One was dressed in a white jacket with black trims all over it, black jeans and grey sneakers. His hair was white, and his eyes red. His arms were covered in bandages, and weren't visible. Another had brown jeans with dragon scales painted at the feet, and had black shoes. His T-shirt/vest was white, and he had brown hair, an enigmatic smile hanging on his lips. The third was dressed in a red T-shirt, jeans, and a Camo fleece. His black, curly hair hanged over his acne-spotted face, and he was incredibly tall, it seemed, as Fredrik laid down and all, but he was also skinny. Slowly, and with some effort, he got up, feeling some irritation in his arm. As he got up, he got a backslap by the white-haired one.
"Great to see you're up, Sappy-face!" he grinned. Fredrik turned to him, remembering his behaviour slightly. "What's up, idiot? Why you staring?"
"F-Fenrir?" Fredrik gasped. The white-haired boy smirked.
"Heh, you're not as idiotic as you look." he grinned.
"WHAT THE HELL?!?!" Fredrik was instantly insulted, and charged at the boy. He just side-stepped, and tripped him.
"Sheesh, you're really an idiot..." he sighed. "My real name's Quint, btw."
"Q-Quint?" Fredrik said, getting up and brushing off his clothes. He suddenly saw they had changed. He was now dressed in a black armor with gold lines forming small "platforms" of the black armor, and he had nothing but a red scarf, a red bandana, and black jeans on him, accompanied with a pair of black navy-boots. His hair was spiky and black as well, hanging slightly over his green eyes. "W-What the hell?"
"Ok, Fred, here's the deal; We're in GOD knows where, and all you care about is your clothes? Am I correct?" Quint stated. Fredrik looked annoyed at this.
"Hmph. At least I'm not Cpt. Insult." he snarled.
"Please, Fred. That was just jokes." Quint sighed. The brown-haired one was now standing beside Fredrik, smiling.
"Hey, Fred. Guess who I am?" he smiled. Fredrik looked a bit at him, then smiled.
"Kevin, huh?" he smirked.
"Yep. Nice to see ya like this, pal." Kevin said cheerfully.
"Damn, those fucktards are slow-minded..." Quint muttered. The black-haired heard this.
"They are not slow-minded, they are just choosing to act like this because in that way, they identify themselves as friend." he stated.
"Shut up, Brainiac..." Quint snarled. "I don't need your expertise in Idiothology 101." Nexev seemed to be somewhat disturbed by Quint's arrogance, but shrugged and went up to Fredrik and Kevin.
"Now, I think you know who I am?" he implied, and Fredrik nodded.
"Nice to see you in person, Nexev." he said. Nexev smirked slighty, nodding to show Fredrik his respect.
"Ah, I see we're all here..." a voice boomed, and all turned to the source of the voice. A person, shrouded in darkness, stood in front of them. Everyone were sorta shocked, but Quint looked just normal.
"Who are you then?" Nexev asked.
"Me?" the figure chuckled in a way that made Fredrik's blood freeze to ice, but Quint just shuddered slightly. "I am nothing...but pure darkness. I am a kid that could have been saved...but I was forced into the agony and loneliness of a paper box...all alone...all pain...and now, I want to unleash the same pain on all those that didn't save me. But there is an obstacle in my plans, and that is a union called The Union of Justice; A group of pestering little runts and a Kitsune of some sort that fights for what they call 'Good'. But I ask you, what is there for 'good' in this world? Was it the 'good' that put me in that box? Was it the 'good' that ignored me and totally shunned me from reality, making my mind a twisted place for the dead and unborn? No. If that is the good, then I say, we will eliminate what's good..." somehow, the melancholy of the voice and the shaded shape of a heart tipped Fredrik off on who it was, and he took a deep breath before asking;
"B-Broken?"
Everyone looked at Fredrik, then back at the shaded figure. He merely chuckled.
"Yes, Kuja...I am Broken. How clever of you to find it out. Didn't I tell you that you have to search for answers yourself? Well, now you did just that, and I am proud. However...we still need some soldiers for our ranks...so I will give you the opportunity to recruit whatever you want from these..." he snapped his fingers, and two portals opened. Quint and Fredrik smirked. They both knew which creatures they would bring out;
"Nnoitra! Zommari! Edorad! Avirama! Gantenbainne! Cirucci! Findor!" shouted Fredrik, and seven strangely attired and dressed human-looking creatures appeared from his portal.
"Heh, n00b." Quint smirked. "Grimmjow! Lilynette! Yylford! Coyote! Ggio! Panini! Ulquiorra!" he shouted, and seven others appeared. One of them, having a weird moustache and a gentleman-ish look, had a vein almost popping in his forehead.
"IT'S DORDONII! DO I LOOK LIKE A DELICIOUS SANDWICH TO YOU?!" he shouted out to Quint. Everyone, even the twelve other that had appeared, looked extremely embarrassed, and there was some minutes of silence before Quint walked up to Dordonii, and looked at him with a cold stare.
"I call you whatever the f*ck I want...so stfu." he growled with a low-pitched voice, and Dordonii instantly stood up in salute, looking scared to death. "Hmph...pathetic..." Quint turned so he stood as a leader for his group. Fredrik walked up to Nnoitra, Zommari, Edorad, Avirama, Gantenbainne, Findor, and Cirucci, taking the same position.
"Now..." Broken said, taking a step forward. "It is time for us to pay a...little 'visit' to our adversaries. We must know all we need for our encounter with them." Quint seemed annoyed.
"Why can't we just go over there and bash 'em up?" he snarled. Nexev shook his head.
"Always the impulsive one..." he sighed. "Do you know how much planning it will take to accomplish such feats? You need pin-point planning and strategy to accomplish it. The Union is not as weak as we may think. Oh, and another thing, are you two completely without creativity? All you have done is summoned a bunch of Bleach characters - Arrancars, if nothing else - to your aid. You could have summoned more powerful beings, in my opinion." Quint shrugged a bit, as if he had been asleep.
"Too long, didn't listen." he said, yawning and stretching his back. Nexev frowned.
"Don't come and complain at me when you fall, that's all I say." he warned Quint. As he spoke, Broken turned to Kevin and Fredrik with his recruits. He walked over to them, remaining shrouded by his darkness.
"Kuja...what do you wish most?" he asked. Fredrik turned his head to face Broken.
"Hmm? What?" Fredrik asked.
"I asked what you want, more than anything in the world." Broken replied. "I can give it to you." Fredrik sighed, and looked down.
"Well...all that I have wanted...is to be respected for who I am." he said. Kevin patted his shoulder.
"Hey, Fred, cheer up. We're your pals." he smiled. Fredrik just shrugged, chuckling.
"Heh, I guess you are. But still...if I ever get out of here...I want to be respected for who I am, how I act...and a girlfriend..." he said. Broken nodded.
"If you join me and Nexev...I shall give it to you. My powers are great, you see, and I can give you anything you desire..." he chanted. Fredrik raised an eyebrow, then sighed. He wanted anything for being respected, and not bullied all the time, so this sounded as a deal.
"Ok, it's a deal." he said. Broken chuckled again.
"Good..." he said. "Now...we will prepare for out conquest..."

As the sun raised over the fields of Berlin, the plants and grass that had been asleep in the cold night slowly awoke again, rising to the sunlight and waving in the breezes that gently flowed over the field. The rays of light then caught glance of a seemingly normal house, slowly rising along the walls of it as it made their way to a window. This window lead to their room. Ever since that night yesterday, Benjamin Tennyson and Rika Nonaka had their feelings confirmed; They were in love. And they felt like nothing could ever stop their feelings. The sunlight slowly lit over them, and Ben was annoyed by the light in his eyes, and he yawned and woke up, rubbing his eyes. He saw Rika sleeping still, smiling as he planted a kiss on her soft cheek.
"Morning, my love..." he said softly. Rika just moaned in her sleep, being annoyed by the kiss and the words as they disturbed her sleep, and rolled over on her other side, her back facing Ben. He just chuckled slightly, and stroked her shoulder. He knew she would wake up sooner or later. She just needed her sweet time sometimes. As his eyes looked over her back, he could not help but to admire her body. She was not too slim, nor too flabby. She was absolutely perfect, he thought, and her hair was so beautiful and warm that it sent waves of comfort into Ben's body each time he stroked it. Finally, he just smiled at Rika, and took the blanket over her, tucking her in as well, before standing up and putting on his T-shirt, jacket, jeans & sneakers. He also took his I-Phone with him, and while putting on his headphones, he listened to "Aerosmith - Dream On". As he walked out of the bedroom, he looked downstairs, seeing the dinner table being filled with delightful toasts and other things. Licking his lips, he went down the stairs and up to the table, where Harry and Ron were. "Yo!" he said simply as he sat down.
"Mornin' Ben! We were talking about you!" Harry said, smiling cheerfully. Ben raised an eyebrow.
"About...what exactly?" he inquired, scraping some butter on a toast before eating it.
"W-Well...how you and Rika are so well together!" Harry said shortly after. Ben smiled a bit, but frowned as well.
"Guys..." he said, and Harry and Ron were listening, "I want to tell you something..."
"Then do it." Ron said. "We won't tell a bloody soul!"
"Good..." Ben said, and took a deep breath. "What I have been feeling lately...is that something terrible will happen. I don't know what, but it is something, that much I know. I don't think I will be alive after that, but I want you to tell Rika...that I love her. Truly, I do. Deep inside my heart, she is the most perfect person I have met in my life. Her body, her hair, everything. Even her personality rocks. I mean, she's so cheerful now, and nothing seems to bring her down. I want her to stay that way...so therefore, I want you to tell her...that no matter what happens...I will love her...even in death, if that is needed." without him knowing, Rika had walked down the stairs, and she heard everything. She was deeply touched that Ben cared so much about her, and she had never heard Lee say that, to be honest. She was in a state of half-shock, and continued down the stairs.
"Ben..." she said aloud, and Ben saw her. He blushed wildly, and tried to hide his face, but failed as Rika had her hands on his cheeks. "I-I never knew how much you cared for me...you truly love me so much?" she asked. Ben nodded, and held Rika's hands.
"Rika, I care about you more than you think." he said. "You're the first one that I have ever loved. I mean...you are so cheerful! And gorgeous too!" Rika blushed at this. "Rika...you and I are meant to be together...I know it..." at this, Rika and Ben once again kissed each other's lips. Ron just looked away, but Harry felt happy that Rika and Ben were together like this. He quickly resumed eating, however, as they stopped kissing.
"Oh, Ben..." Rika smiled.
"I will be here for you...always..." Ben promised, and kissed Rika's cheek. She giggled slightly, and walked off with Ben holding her hand.

Unknown to them, two figures were observing them. These two were Fredrik and Nnoitra Jiruga - also known as the 5th Espada from Bleach - as they were in hiding, obseving them.
"Hmph! Those two, and four more? Not a big deal!" Nnoitra smirked. Fredrik shushed the Espada, observing Ben and Rika.
"Those two..." he muttered, "I recognize them. I have thought...or dreamt...about them sometimes...when I am in front of my computer. But...who are they? They seem so familiar...yet so unknown..."
"C'mon boss, snap out of it!" Nnoitra complained. "This is where WE make a move before that Quint! Didn't ya want to outshine him at some point? Didn't ya wanna be better than him? To have more power than him?"
"......" Fredrik was silent. Sure, he wanted to be better than Quint - that damn arrogant bastard - to prove to him that he wasn't a sappy, idiotic moron. He knew he was so much more than Quint had told him he was, but then again, power could lead to make him what Quint now was. "...No."
"What?!" Nnoitra exclaimed. "You don't want power?!"
"No." Fredrik simply stated. "I am perfect the way I am, and that's that. I don't want to become what Quint is because I have power. I fear it will be so if I become powerful." he sighed after this, and stood up. He heard a snigger behind him. "I know you heard that, Quint..." in a flash, Quint and Dordonii appeared.
"Heh, and you had one of your speeches as usual, so I just couldn't help but to listen to your pathetic prayers then SHOOT YOU DOWN, B!TCH!" Quint laughed out loud, and grinned at Fredrik. "You're one, pathetic loser. Deal with it, loser..." Fredrik sighed, and looked down on his feet. However, Dordonii and Nnoitra were too focused on each other.
"So I see that the Great Quint didn't choose you, Nnoitra?" Dordonii boasted. "That is a pity, really."
"Hmph! Perhaps he is not as 'great' as you think. He may just use you as a meat shield, Dordonii." Nnoitra grinned, his teeth forming a most devilish and sadistic smile. Dordonii shrugged, and posed to show his elegance.
"Some can't just deal with the fact that I am so awesome..." he muttered for himself, but then, a bash in the head made him fall down, and Quint was in the picture again.
"Great, fuckin' great..." he sighed. "Here I am, and you're stealing screen time from me...GET UP, PANINI!" he roared, and Dordonii was up in a flash.
"Y-Yes Master!" he stammered. Quint grinned. He loved how people feared him, and mostly, respected him through this fear. His grin reduced, and he was off, Dordonii following him. Fredrik nodded to Nnoitra, and they were off as well.

As Ben and Rika stopped to take a break, they happened to stop in front of the nearby lake that they found once while scouting. Both of them were smiling, and Ben sat down, just looking at the water making a crystalized mirror image of the rising sun above them. Rika giggled, and sat down beside Ben, holding his hand. Be blushed at this, and looked into Rika's pristine blue eyes, as she looked back into his emerald green eyes.
"Remember how we first found this place?" asked Rika. Ben nodded with an enigmatic smile, patting Rika's head, which made her giggle again.
"Yeah, I do..." Ben said, sitting down. We first found this place when we were scouting the area for any possible leftovers of Garga that needed to be destroyed. It was so beautiful when we found it, and it still is. Not a single piece of Garga's taint is here, and has never been here. It is so beautiful." he smiled as he looked back at Rika, who suddenly was twiddling her thumbs. "Rika, what's wrong?" he asked, placing a hand on her shoulder.
"O-Oh, nothing..." she said, but a sigh slipped past her lips. "Ben...I am worried. I mean, if we managed to beat Garga, what does it mean? There will always be a greater foe somewhere, hiding and waiting for us to be weak. It will strike sometime...I know it...and I don't think I am strong enouth t-!" she was interrupted as Ben planted a kiss on her lips, and she kissed him back with passion, wrapping her arms around his head and neck as he kissed her. "Ben...why did you do that?" asked Rika.
"Because I felt for it." Ben smiled, chuckling. "And because you needed some pepping! Rika, I know that there are alot of strong guys out there that aren't exactly "good", but we will win, no matter what! Heh, I got this, remember?" he showed Rika his Omnitrix. "As long as I got XLR8, Fourarms, Big Chill, Echo Echo, Ripjaws or anyone else, I will protect you. I won't give up. Not until each of my aliens and every ounce of my breath are lost and spent. Rika...you're everything for me! I would give my life for you! But I know I wouldn't die...because you will have me here..." he held Rika's chest, feeling her heart. Rika felt it too now, and smiled at Ben.
"Thank you Ben..." she said, holding his hand. "Now I know...that we will never be separated..."
"O rly now?" a voice blurted out. Rika and Ben got up in a fighting stance, seeing a young kid and a strangely attired man standing on the lake's surface. The kid grinned. "Man, man, what a waste of breath. I mean, come ON! Emotions and sappy speeches about love and uniting forever? Please, it makes me wanna PUKE!"
"W-Who are you? And how can you say such awful things?" Rika demanded. The kid smirked, pulling his bandaged arms in front of him.
"You better watch your tounge...b!tch..." he grinned. "I am Quint Philip Jaeger, but call me Catalyst. And this is my dreaded servant; Dordonii *cough*Panini*cough*..." he pretended to cough out "Panini", and succeeded, as Dordonii didn't hear this, apparently. "Now, Dordonii! Attack them!" Dordonii nodded, and leaped into the air, making a gracious flip in the air and landed behind Ben and Rika. But ironically, he slipped and fell on his face, making his "Grand Entrance" fail miserably. Quint facepalmed, and Ben & Rika just sighed.
"Loser..." all three said.

Chapter 2 - The Baron of Storms; Whirl, Giralda
After Dordonii's "Grand Entrance", he fumbled up on his feet, and faced the two Union members.
"That was on purpose!" he blurted out, pointing at Ben and Rika. "It was all a part of my Grand Entrance, ungrateful brats!"
"Yeah, right..." Ben rolled his eyes, and stood in front of Rika. "Rika, I will take care of him, don't worry about me. I will be O.K, promise." Rika nodded and stood back, waiting for the fight to start. It didn't, however. Ben was waiting for Dordonii to make a move, but he was just standing as well. "Well...aren't you gonna do something, Mr "Grand Entrance"?" Ben smirked.
"Hmph. I see you are underestimating me, Ninõ." Dordonii smirked, pulling up his fists. "But do not get overconfident. I am more that you see for now, so don't think you have the advantage. You are just a human, Ninõ. I am a Privadon Espada." Ben chuckled at this. "What is so funny, Ninõ?"
"Hehe, sorry. It just seems that you're underestimating me at the moment. You see, I am not a regular kid..." with this, he pulled up his right hand, and on his wrist, he displayed the Omnitrix. Dordonii just shrugged, but Quint caught it with his glance.
"Hmmmm...that little trinket...Dordonii may take water over his head if he battles this one...that device somehow emitts alot of energy, and it's just not from one being...but possibly over twenty of living beings...heh, like I care if Panini is f*cked...he's worthless..." he thought. As he thought this, Ben was twisting on the button on his Omnitrix, finding the right alien. He found one, and slammed down the button. A green light bursted out from it, and Dordonii, Rika, and Quint were temporarily stunned by the bright light. As the light faded, Ben had transformed to a four-armed alien with red-furred skin, four yellow and narrow eyes, and a white outfit with black trims. He was now Fourarms.
"Now this is something special, Ninõ! I have never in my life as an Espada - nor a Privadon Espada - seen such a rapid transformation. You impressed me, Ninõ...but not enough to win my respect." he disappeared, using Sonido, and appeared next to Ben and kicked to his head. Ben simply pulled up one of his arms, blocking the kick, but it did send him a few feet away, dragging his feet in the dirt. He was strong, this Dordonii. Very strong.
"Damn, hehe." Ben chuckled, his voice a bit altered after his transformation. "You're damn strong to send me draggin' in this form. Got to admit, Dordonii, you're something. But now...IT'S MY TURN!" with a roar, he charged at Dordonii, lunging two of his fists at him, and as he connected them with Dordonii's gut, a gagging noise was heard as Dordonii was hit by such force, and he flew back into a tree. The impact caused the tree to crack and fall down, but Dordonii got up on his feet again, seemingly unharmed. "You're tough." Ben admitted once again, smirking and cracking his knuckles. "Makes it more fun that way!"
"You are overconfident, Ninõ." Dordonii stated, and charged at Ben, kicking his chest. A gag was heard from Ben before he was flung across the lake, and crashed into the mountain on the other side. Rika gasped and covered her mouth in fear of screaming, but hoped Ben was ok. Dordonii disappeared and reappeared over the rubble caused by the impact Ben had done. "Hmm? Over already, Ninõ? You disappoint me. You said you were strong, so why are you not showing me any strenght? You disgrace me, Nin-..." he was interrupted as a rock was thrown at him, and he had to dodge it. Another two were tossed at his face, but he easily dodged them by performing a flip into the air. As he looked down, he saw Ben holding a fourth rock. "What an impressive display. You are far more superior than I had imagined." he admired Ben. Ben just grunted.
"Heh, ya know what? You're damn annoying, so shut your trap!" he shouted, and threw the last boulder at Dordonii with neck-breaking speed. Dordonii simply grinned at this, and rushed towards the boulder. Throwing a punch, he turned the boulder into pebble. Shrugging his foot a bit, he stood up and looked at Ben with a slightly triumphant grin. "How the?! He just smashed it like that." Ben was impressed, and slightly frightened by Dordonii's power.
"Haha! Seems as you've underestimated me yet again, Ninõ." he said with a smirk. "I told you before, do not underestimate me, or you will be caught off-guard. Got it?" at this, he had his hand on his sword sheathe. "Now, you will be defeated..." with a quick push of his thumb, the base of the blade was visible, and in this moment, Dordonii announced;
"Whirl - Giralda!"
~~~~~~~~~~
"What's that?"
Hatake Kakashi, who had been on his room this morning, felt an unusual high level of Chakra - or at least energy - rise up to the east of their HQ. He feared it was an enemy, but he sensed Ben's energy as well, so he bet that he was fighting the possible enemy already. Still, he had to assist him, so he went up - his Ninja outfit already on - and went out of his room, down to where Harry and Ron were. They were having a game of Wizard's Chess, but Kakashi swept away the pieces in frustration and to get the two wizards' attention.
"Hey! What the bloody hell, Kakashi?" Ron argued, but Harry knew he was going to say something serious.
"What is it, Kakashi?" he asked right-on-spot. Kakashi looked at both Ron and Harry before speaking.
"First; you two need to be on more attention than this! Playing games like this all day is not so smart." he said sternly, and Ron twiddled his thumbs. "Second; I just sensed Ben and a massive amount of Chakra-related energy near him. I believe he is in danger, and we need to investigate at once. I fear that even if Ben is a quite formidable fighter, he may need our help this time." Harry was instantly up as Kakashi said this. If it was one thing he did not want to happen, it was for one of the members of the Union to suffer the same fate as Mileena and Lee did for their sake.
"Let's go then!" he said, hastily pulling his wand. Ron stood up, nodding and pulling his as well. "We won't fail the Union! Not now, not ever!" Kakashi nodded, and pulled out his Kunai.
"Then let's move, both of you. We don't have all day." he stated, and the three ran off to help Ben. But perhaps, they were too late...
~~~~~~~~~~
Dordonii was surrounded by a vortex that was resembling a cyclone, and Ben had to grab hold of the mountain to not be pushed away by the force of the gale. Rika and Renamon were keeping their ground, standing against the storm that suddenly whipped up. Quint seemed to be unaffected, just standing and smirking at Dordonii's transformation.
"Heh, the idiot...he actually had to use Resurrecciõn? No, he is just overconfident. Or perhaps that kiddo has more aliens up his sleeve? We'll just have to see...both will die, no matter what's the case..." thought Quint as the hurricane settled. Wind was still circling around Dordonii, but at a slower pace. His body had a few changes now;
He had two horn-like outgrowths on his shoulders that looked like goat horns, and his legs were covered in white armor with a pipe on each foot, and bubble-like armor pieces around the ankles. A small piece of armor sat like a forehead protector on his head, and his moustache seemed a bit thinner.
"Now, Ninõ...this is my true form." he said, a smirk still on his face. Ben was slightly impressed, but also a bit fearing of the unknown creature in front of him. What was this Dordonii? Alien? Human? Or just something...different? "Time to dance, Giralda!" Dordonii said aloud, and the wind kicked up a notch again. Suddenly, fumes of air were blasting out of the pipes on his feet, and rose to the air, forming some snake-like creatures with white bird masks on their "faces". Dordonii kicked in thin air, and suddenly, the creature on the left moved in to attack Ben.
"Whoa, what the?!" Ben jumped away, dodging the attack, but then, Dordonii kicked with his right foot, and the right creature charged in, ramming Ben and slamming into the ground with a bang.
"BEN!" Rika cried out, a sudden chill of fear sent up her spine as she saw Ben being pummeled into the ground all of a sudden. But Ben came up from the formed crater, and Rika was relieved. "Ben, you ok?"
"Yeah, I'm fine..." Ben groaned in pain, cracking his neck. "Agh...that was a hit indeed. Now, I think I need to get serious..." he took some time to think;
"So, from what I just saw, this form can summon some sort of creature to aid him in battle. However, he has to kick or swipe his feet to make them move, or else they're immobile. I need to figure out if he has a pattern or something in his attacks, then I put in a counter-attack!"
Nodding, Ben charged at Dordonii, but he just kicked at Ben, and one of the "storm birds" charged at him. Ben grinned, and with a turn, he grabbed the head of the bird, but it just kept pushing him backwards. It was immensly strong, so Ben might just have been regular for this to be more ineffective. He pushed off the bird that attacked him, but was immidiently rammed by the second one, crashing into the woods on the other side of the lake. "You already finished, Ninõ?" Dordonii grinned. "You are not a match for me, so come on! Show me your true powers! I want us to fight at our full powers, to go head-to-head with all our might! So why don't you go at full strenght?! Show me your POWER!" in fact, Ben was far from able to use his full powers. For some reasons, after activating him in the battle against Vilgax when his Omnitrix was about to self-destruct, he could not activate the powers of Way Big. He had to find another way. Standing up, he reverted to his human form, and walked to face Dordonii, who was insulted by seeing Ben being in his normal form. "Hmph...you disgrace me, Ninõ..."
"Shut your trap, Dor-whatever." Ben said, looking at Dordonii. "You keep braggin' about how big your powers are, and how you want me to fight using my full powers. If I had done that, you would simply not accept your fate if the battle didn't go in your favor, and you would die a "disgraceful" death. So let us fight this fight as we see fit for each other."
"You do not understand, Ninõ. Battle is about going at full strenght, to overpower the other one in a conflict on massive scales." Dordonii countered. As he talked, more and more storm birds formed from the fuming air pillars. "One victor, one loser. That is how it is. And both warriors will use their full strenght to not dishonor each other. That is a code! If you are willing to break it, then I will make you suffer." Ben stared at all the storm birds. There were at least a dozen of them, and he didn't see a way to fight them all at once unless he was both strong & fast at once. Then, a thought flashed his mind;
What is he still HAD Way Big?
It was worth a try.
"Heh, we'll see then, if I am willing to die so easily." Ben said, turning on his Omnitrix. "You seem like a strong guy, but I'll beat ya! I just know it! And...I made a promise to Rika. I said I would protect her, and that is what I'm going to do!" with a slam of the button, Ben transformed again. But this time, he began to grow Larger and larger, until he was about as large as a skyscraper. Quint was actually interested this time, and looked up at the massive figure that towered above them. Ben was now a gargantuan alien with yellow eyes, thick, armor-like hide in a grey color, and with two sharp "fins" on his elbows, and one on his head, colored red. This was his Way Big form.
"W-What in Lord Aizen's name is THAT?!" Dordonii gasped. Rika was also as shocked as the Pivaron Espada. Ben has never unleashed this form before, so she was impressed indeed. Dordonii smirked nervously. "H-Hahah! You're still no match for me!!" he shouted, and kicked at Ben. The storm birds charged at Ben's giant body, but as they struck him, he didn't seem to feel it. "W-What?!"
"Annoying..." Ben said in a low-pitched, rumbling voice, looking down at Dordonii. "Go away..." he raised his foot, and swiftly brought it down upon Dordonii, as he mashed not only him, but the mountain and the lake, in the progress. Rika was forced to run and dodge as Ben stomped at Dordonii, but managed to get to safety. A huge dust cloud formed as Ben stomped into the ground, and a red flash was visible in the dust. Rika stood up, looking around.
"B-Ben?" she said, coughing a bit. "Ben?! BEN!! Where are y-..." she was interrupted as she felt someone hug her. "Ben...you are safe..."
"Of course, Rika...you know I am..." Ben said, smiling as he kissed her hair. Rika smiled, and nuzzled Ben's chest a bit. In the background, a trampled Dordonii was laying in a crater, gasping his last breath before he fell numb and silent. He was dead, hopefully. "Let's go now, Rika..."
"Yeah...I'd like that..." Rika smiled at Ben, who smiled back. But as they were to kiss each other, a clapping noise was heard, though it sounded like sarcastic claps.
"Bra~vo. Well done..." Quint was revealed, rolling his eyes. "Please, don't be cocky just because you killed Panini. He was worthless all along. Now, I think I have to do what I was originally suppose to do..." with a crack of his knuckles, Quint disappeared, and appeared in front of Ben. "You're terminated, f*cker." before anyone reacted, a powerful punch was connected with Ben's gut, and he flew straight into a tree, as it fell down when Ben crashed into it. Rika was scared to death, and rushed to her lover's body.
"Ben! Ben!!! Are you ok Ben?! Answer me!!" Rika tried everything; slapping his face, shaking him, opening his eyes. But nothing worked. It seemed as the unthinkable had happened;
Benjamin Tennyson was dead.
To be continued...
After Dordonii's "Grand Entrance", he fumbled up on his feet, and faced the two Union members.
"That was on purpose!" he blurted out, pointing at Ben and Rika. "It was all a part of my Grand Entrance, ungrateful brats!"
"Yeah, right..." Ben rolled his eyes, and stood in front of Rika. "Rika, I will take care of him, don't worry about me. I will be O.K, promise." Rika nodded and stood back, waiting for the fight to start. It didn't, however. Ben was waiting for Dordonii to make a move, but he was just standing as well. "Well...aren't you gonna do something, Mr "Grand Entrance"?" Ben smirked.
"Hmph. I see you are underestimating me, Ninõ." Dordonii smirked, pulling up his fists. "But do not get overconfident. I am more that you see for now, so don't think you have the advantage. You are just a human, Ninõ. I am a Privadon Espada." Ben chuckled at this. "What is so funny, Ninõ?"
"Hehe, sorry. It just seems that you're underestimating me at the moment. You see, I am not a regular kid..." with this, he pulled up his right hand, and on his wrist, he displayed the Omnitrix. Dordonii just shrugged, but Quint caught it with his glance.
"Hmmmm...that little trinket...Dordonii may take water over his head if he battles this one...that device somehow emitts alot of energy, and it's just not from one being...but possibly over twenty of living beings...heh, like I care if Panini is f*cked...he's worthless..." he thought. As he thought this, Ben was twisting on the button on his Omnitrix, finding the right alien. He found one, and slammed down the button. A green light bursted out from it, and Dordonii, Rika, and Quint were temporarily stunned by the bright light. As the light faded, Ben had transformed to a four-armed alien with red-furred skin, four yellow and narrow eyes, and a white outfit with black trims. He was now Fourarms.
"Now this is something special, Ninõ! I have never in my life as an Espada - nor a Privadon Espada - seen such a rapid transformation. You impressed me, Ninõ...but not enough to win my respect." he disappeared, using Sonido, and appeared next to Ben and kicked to his head. Ben simply pulled up one of his arms, blocking the kick, but it did send him a few feet away, dragging his feet in the dirt. He was strong, this Dordonii. Very strong.
"Damn, hehe." Ben chuckled, his voice a bit altered after his transformation. "You're damn strong to send me draggin' in this form. Got to admit, Dordonii, you're something. But now...IT'S MY TURN!" with a roar, he charged at Dordonii, lunging two of his fists at him, and as he connected them with Dordonii's gut, a gagging noise was heard as Dordonii was hit by such force, and he flew back into a tree. The impact caused the tree to crack and fall down, but Dordonii got up on his feet again, seemingly unharmed. "You're tough." Ben admitted once again, smirking and cracking his knuckles. "Makes it more fun that way!"
"You are overconfident, Ninõ." Dordonii stated, and charged at Ben, kicking his chest. A gag was heard from Ben before he was flung across the lake, and crashed into the mountain on the other side. Rika gasped and covered her mouth in fear of screaming, but hoped Ben was ok. Dordonii disappeared and reappeared over the rubble caused by the impact Ben had done. "Hmm? Over already, Ninõ? You disappoint me. You said you were strong, so why are you not showing me any strenght? You disgrace me, Nin-..." he was interrupted as a rock was thrown at him, and he had to dodge it. Another two were tossed at his face, but he easily dodged them by performing a flip into the air. As he looked down, he saw Ben holding a fourth rock. "What an impressive display. You are far more superior than I had imagined." he admired Ben. Ben just grunted.
"Heh, ya know what? You're damn annoying, so shut your trap!" he shouted, and threw the last boulder at Dordonii with neck-breaking speed. Dordonii simply grinned at this, and rushed towards the boulder. Throwing a punch, he turned the boulder into pebble. Shrugging his foot a bit, he stood up and looked at Ben with a slightly triumphant grin. "How the?! He just smashed it like that." Ben was impressed, and slightly frightened by Dordonii's power.
"Haha! Seems as you've underestimated me yet again, Ninõ." he said with a smirk. "I told you before, do not underestimate me, or you will be caught off-guard. Got it?" at this, he had his hand on his sword sheathe. "Now, you will be defeated..." with a quick push of his thumb, the base of the blade was visible, and in this moment, Dordonii announced;
"Whirl - Giralda!"
~~~~~~~~~~
"What's that?"
Hatake Kakashi, who had been on his room this morning, felt an unusual high level of Chakra - or at least energy - rise up to the east of their HQ. He feared it was an enemy, but he sensed Ben's energy as well, so he bet that he was fighting the possible enemy already. Still, he had to assist him, so he went up - his Ninja outfit already on - and went out of his room, down to where Harry and Ron were. They were having a game of Wizard's Chess, but Kakashi swept away the pieces in frustration and to get the two wizards' attention.
"Hey! What the bloody hell, Kakashi?" Ron argued, but Harry knew he was going to say something serious.
"What is it, Kakashi?" he asked right-on-spot. Kakashi looked at both Ron and Harry before speaking.
"First; you two need to be on more attention than this! Playing games like this all day is not so smart." he said sternly, and Ron twiddled his thumbs. "Second; I just sensed Ben and a massive amount of Chakra-related energy near him. I believe he is in danger, and we need to investigate at once. I fear that even if Ben is a quite formidable fighter, he may need our help this time." Harry was instantly up as Kakashi said this. If it was one thing he did not want to happen, it was for one of the members of the Union to suffer the same fate as Mileena and Lee did for their sake.
"Let's go then!" he said, hastily pulling his wand. Ron stood up, nodding and pulling his as well. "We won't fail the Union! Not now, not ever!" Kakashi nodded, and pulled out his Kunai.
"Then let's move, both of you. We don't have all day." he stated, and the three ran off to help Ben. But perhaps, they were too late...
~~~~~~~~~~
Dordonii was surrounded by a vortex that was resembling a cyclone, and Ben had to grab hold of the mountain to not be pushed away by the force of the gale. Rika and Renamon were keeping their ground, standing against the storm that suddenly whipped up. Quint seemed to be unaffected, just standing and smirking at Dordonii's transformation.
"Heh, the idiot...he actually had to use Resurrecciõn? No, he is just overconfident. Or perhaps that kiddo has more aliens up his sleeve? We'll just have to see...both will die, no matter what's the case..." thought Quint as the hurricane settled. Wind was still circling around Dordonii, but at a slower pace. His body had a few changes now;
He had two horn-like outgrowths on his shoulders that looked like goat horns, and his legs were covered in white armor with a pipe on each foot, and bubble-like armor pieces around the ankles. A small piece of armor sat like a forehead protector on his head, and his moustache seemed a bit thinner.
"Now, Ninõ...this is my true form." he said, a smirk still on his face. Ben was slightly impressed, but also a bit fearing of the unknown creature in front of him. What was this Dordonii? Alien? Human? Or just something...different? "Time to dance, Giralda!" Dordonii said aloud, and the wind kicked up a notch again. Suddenly, fumes of air were blasting out of the pipes on his feet, and rose to the air, forming some snake-like creatures with white bird masks on their "faces". Dordonii kicked in thin air, and suddenly, the creature on the left moved in to attack Ben.
"Whoa, what the?!" Ben jumped away, dodging the attack, but then, Dordonii kicked with his right foot, and the right creature charged in, ramming Ben and slamming into the ground with a bang.
"BEN!" Rika cried out, a sudden chill of fear sent up her spine as she saw Ben being pummeled into the ground all of a sudden. But Ben came up from the formed crater, and Rika was relieved. "Ben, you ok?"
"Yeah, I'm fine..." Ben groaned in pain, cracking his neck. "Agh...that was a hit indeed. Now, I think I need to get serious..." he took some time to think;
"So, from what I just saw, this form can summon some sort of creature to aid him in battle. However, he has to kick or swipe his feet to make them move, or else they're immobile. I need to figure out if he has a pattern or something in his attacks, then I put in a counter-attack!"
Nodding, Ben charged at Dordonii, but he just kicked at Ben, and one of the "storm birds" charged at him. Ben grinned, and with a turn, he grabbed the head of the bird, but it just kept pushing him backwards. It was immensly strong, so Ben might just have been regular for this to be more ineffective. He pushed off the bird that attacked him, but was immidiently rammed by the second one, crashing into the woods on the other side of the lake. "You already finished, Ninõ?" Dordonii grinned. "You are not a match for me, so come on! Show me your true powers! I want us to fight at our full powers, to go head-to-head with all our might! So why don't you go at full strenght?! Show me your POWER!" in fact, Ben was far from able to use his full powers. For some reasons, after activating him in the battle against Vilgax when his Omnitrix was about to self-destruct, he could not activate the powers of Way Big. He had to find another way. Standing up, he reverted to his human form, and walked to face Dordonii, who was insulted by seeing Ben being in his normal form. "Hmph...you disgrace me, Ninõ..."
"Shut your trap, Dor-whatever." Ben said, looking at Dordonii. "You keep braggin' about how big your powers are, and how you want me to fight using my full powers. If I had done that, you would simply not accept your fate if the battle didn't go in your favor, and you would die a "disgraceful" death. So let us fight this fight as we see fit for each other."
"You do not understand, Ninõ. Battle is about going at full strenght, to overpower the other one in a conflict on massive scales." Dordonii countered. As he talked, more and more storm birds formed from the fuming air pillars. "One victor, one loser. That is how it is. And both warriors will use their full strenght to not dishonor each other. That is a code! If you are willing to break it, then I will make you suffer." Ben stared at all the storm birds. There were at least a dozen of them, and he didn't see a way to fight them all at once unless he was both strong & fast at once. Then, a thought flashed his mind;

Dordonii smirked nervously. "H-Hahah! You're still no match for me!!" he shouted, and kicked at Ben. The storm birds charged at Ben's giant body, but as they struck him, he didn't seem to feel it.

"Go away..." he raised his foot, and swiftly brought it down upon Dordonii, as he mashed not only him, but the mountain and the lake, in the progress.

"Ben?! Ben!! BEN, WAKE UP!!" Rika cried and shouted, shaking Ben's seemingly lifeless body. "Please, get up!!" but Ben wasn't getting up. He was still as lifeless as he was when Rika first started to try and wake him. Quint was smirking in the background, his grin being that of a beast.
"I'm afraid that is no way of wakin' him." he chuckled coldly. Rika turned to Quint, her face filled with fear and sadness. "That's right, heh. Your precious little Ben is dead. Finito. No more. Not comin' back. Catch my point? You just gotta deal with it." Quint then turned around and saw a sphere hover up to him. "Took ya some time, Nexev."
"Hmph, do you have any considerable idea of how long I had to go to get here? I am not some sort of delivery guy who picks up and delivers stuff, I am an inventor and creator." a voice inside the sphere said.
"Whatever, I got you the toy you wanted..." Quint rolled his eyes, and pointed to Ben's body. Rika instantly stood up, and blocked off the path to Ben's body. "Girl, please step aside. I ain't a gentleman, so I don't pull back for a girl."
"No! I-I won't let you have him!" Rika said, tears falling from her eyes. "I-I won't let you. He is no toy you can mess around with. H-He's a person...and the one...whom I loved..."
"Aaaw, gee, that's emotional and all, but we got a pressed schedule at the moment, so why don't you just get the f*ck out of here and never come back?" Quint suggested, grinning still. "Besides, it's not like he REALLY loved ya..."
"W-What? What do you mean?" Rika said, suddenly confused.
"Geez, you really think that he loved ya for one sec?" Quint facepalmed. "What an idiot. Look, the only reason he loved ya was because your silly lil' Ninja boyfriend died, and he wanted to "comfort you after your loss". In other words...replace Lee. He knew that you loved Lee more than him, so when Lee was bye-bye, he decided to take a shot and steal your so-called "irreplacable" love for Lee to himself. You, being such an emotional wreck at the moment, instantly turned to Ben, no matter how much ya try to deny it. He is nothing but a liar and a thief..."
"N-NO! Stop!! I-I won't listen!" Rika said desperately. Seeing her so desperate, Quint's grin grew.
"Oh, but you will. This is only the truth I am speaking, and you know it. You and Ben may have been so cute an' all, but in the end, he was using your love all along. He is still that pathetic lil' maggot you loved to hit and yell at. You're in denial, Rika Nonaka. No-one truly loves you. Accept it, or die in despair here and now." at these words, Rika's world slowly fell apart in front of her. With darkness around her eyes, she fell on her knees, just staring down. Quint smirked. "Good girl." he went up to Rika, then passed her and went up to Ben's body. "Tsk tsk...such a waste of effort he put up. Panini was as easy as Fred to beat the crap out of, and he actually had to exhaust himself with using Way Big. Oh well, I guess things can be used in one way or another..." he grabbed Ben's dead arm, and dragged him towards the floating orb that Nexev's voice emitted from. A light emitted from the orb, and Ben's body turned to a cloud of spiritual energy as it was absorbed into the orb.
"Good, good. This body is still capable of being used for my experiments. Also, I would like to inform that the activation of my Prototype Robot Masters is almost complete. I will soon have Gemini Man up and going. He would surely love to get a share of the unavoidable carnage, if not to admire himself." Nexev grunted at the last sentence. Quint shrugged his shoulders. Since no one exept Broken was allowed into Nexev's lab, he, Fredrik and Kevin had no idea what was going on in there.
"Whatever, just take me along with this thing." he said sternly. The orb shined brightly again, and absorbed Quint into it before flying away. Rika was left there. Alone. And hopeless. Suddenly, Kakashi, Harry and Ron showed up, but too late.
"Damn, we're too late." Kakashi sighed. He looked over to Rika, who just looked at the ground. "Hm? What is it now, Rika? And where's Ben?"
"T-They took him. H-He's dead."
~~~~~~~~~~
In the Negative Dimension, Fredrik was sitting on the outdoor plateau of the Regulant's HQ, along with two of his servants; Gantenbainne Mosqueda and Findor Carias. Gantenbainne was Arrancar No. 103, having been reduced in rank to Pivardon Espada, and Findor Carias was the 2nd Espada's - Barragan Luisenbarn's - personal Fraccion. Fredrik was in his usual, depressed mood, and just looked up at the sky, which was black as coal and filled with thunderclouds.
"The weather in this cursed land does not seem to change." Gantenbainne stated. "Unlike this place, you can at least see if it's day and night in Hueco Mundo."
"Exacta." Findor replied, looking over to the Pivardon Espada with a slight smirk. "Though this place is closer to our enemies, it is quite depressing. However, no matter how depressing it is, it is ideal for these Regulants, as they have shorter distance to the "real" dimension, I've heard." at this, Fredrik sat up.
"Why must there be battle & bloodshed?" he asked himself. "Nothing good comes from it, and not even having real friends once it's done makes it worth the while. I hate killing innocents."
"Hey, that's what I hate too!" a voice said behind them. Fredrik turned around, and saw Kevin smiling at him and his two Arrancars. "Hi Fred! What'ya doing here?"
"Nothing, Kevin." Fredrik said, a slight smile crossing his lips. "Just sitting here, looking at the sky."
"Ah, mind if I join?" Kevin cheerfully said, and sat next to Fredrik, who just sighed. "Hey, get that frown upside-down! C'mon now, this can't be so bad! I mean, we're really powerful and all, so why worry? It's not like we're gonna die or something!"
"That's what we will do..." Fredrik said. "Don't you know? The enemies we face aren't just regular children and grown-ups. They're as powerful as we are, maybe even more. Kevin, we need to be serious here. Our enemies are the ones that hold up the balance of what they call Good and Evil, and they state that we are the evil ones? But what is so evil in just trying to make the world better? That's what Broken's told me. He wants the world to be free from ignorance and sorrow - free from guilt, anger, greed and despair - he wants to purify it. I can't help but to agree with him, no matter how weird it may sound. I mean, if there was no ignorance, despair and sorrow...I could live my life as a happy person...for everyone would accept and respect me for who I am." according to Fredrik, Broken's plan of purification was a truly marvelous one. If he now could clean away all despair and sorrow, Fredrik wouldn't have to feel these feelings anymore, and he could live as a happy person.
"Well, I guess you're right, but isn't it what those feelings are for?" asked Kevin. "I mean, if we now have sorrow, don't we have sorrow for a reason? Hey, I may be all cheerful, but I too have negative emotions. I just lock them away because I feel that I can do just fine without them! You shouldn't feel all negative either, Fred. You got me and the others!" he patted Fredrik's shoulder, smiling at his MSN-buddy. He knew that if there was something that could cheer up Fredrik, it was to respect him and tell him that he wasn't so bad after all. Fredrik turned to Kevin, smiling.
"Heh, I guess you're right, Kev. Thanks bud." he said, and slapped Kevin a High Five. Kevin returned it, smiling.
"Hey, no prob! Least I can do for you is to make you feel better!" he said, standing up. "Well, I got to go now! See ya!" he leaped off towards the HQ again. Fredrik stood up, looking over the thundering mesa of the Negative Dimension one last time, before turning around.
"Gantenbainne. Findor. Let's be off." he said simply, and went away, with Gantenbainne and Findor following.
~~~~~~~~~~
Deep down inside the Regulants' base, autonomic sounds and computer bleeps were all that was heard as the plans of a mastermind was carried out. In his massive lab/room, Nexev was frantically working with his schemes and inventions, completely isolated from the other Regulants. The only one that had allowance to enter - since he came and went as he wished for - was Broken, and he had quite the patience for Nexev's plans to be finished. In fact, he did never really care what Nexev was inventing. He only cared when it would be finished. And now - since he had been given Ben's lifeless corpse for some reason he didn't want to explain - he was on top-notch, being all over his lab in preparation for what he called his most "surpreme plot". As he now was in the middle of these master plans, a dark portal rose from the floor, and out of it stepped Broken, his darkness still surrounding him.
"Is this plot of yours done soon?" he asked patiently. Nexev brought a smirk to his face, as he stepped away from one of his desks, facing Broken.
"Almost, great Broken." he replied solemnly. "You see, this extraordinary technique of body reanimation seems so intriguing to me for the moment, and I simply have to try it out."
"And the test subject will be...?"
"Ben Tennyson, of course!" Nexev stated, and pointed to a room. As he went up to it and opened it, chilly winds was flowing out of it. It was a freezing chamber, and inside it was Ben's corpse, frozen and kept in good shape. "His tissues and organs will be kept fresh during this cryogenetic state, so I won't have to be worried about him rottening and decaying, while I perfect my Reanimation Formula and the machine that will inject it. Now then Broken, what was it that you wanted?" Broken turned around as Nexev said this, and looked at the machines in front of him.
"Let's not talk about me now, Nexev." he said. "For there is alot of things to plan if the Prophecy is to be done."
"The Prophecy?" Nexev repeated. "Personally, I don't really believe in such religious humbug, and even if there WAS a Prophecy about the Regulants, then it would include several flaws, such as the "Chosen One's" childhood being filled with misery, and he still had caring parents. That is a major flaw, along with this Negative Dimension magnifying that despair. One's inner despair can only be affected by..."
"By negative emotions from one self." Broken finished. "I know this Nexev, don't take me for a fool. Negative emotions is what breeds our inner chaos, but from chaos, unity is also created. So how can the chaos overcome the unity, if more chaos gives more unity? That is what I believe this Negative Dimension did to the Chosen One. It magnified his negative emotions, and thus, his chaos magnified. But, his unity wasn't magnified, since he had long since locked away his unity, never letting it out. He was the first to live with chaos and darkness only. And so, he was destined to be the leader of the Regulants, an organisation of conserved hatred and sorrow. He was known to become a great person." Broken now went off to a tube in the room, invesitgating it as he spoke. It was filled with a clear liquid, and inside was the body of a robot. It was armored with a reflecting mirror-armor of some sort, with a crystal crown on its helmet, and a cannon on its right hand. "So this is your new...servant?" Nexev nodded.
"Quite correct, along with three more, incomplete ones. He is the first to be completed, I hope, since his stabilizers and energy core is working almost autonomous. He is know as "Gemini Man". A robot named after a star sign, the Twins. He can reproduce an exact replica of himself, and it can attack and talk exactly like its original. Also, his laser rikochet from walls and other flat areas, making it quite versatile. He will be a great soldier." Nexev ended his speech with a smirk. "However, the only flaw is his narcissism, which I can't seem to de-program."
"Fair enough, carry on..." Broken said, as he disappeared in a dark portal once again. This time, he ended up in a large throne room, with no light in it whatsoever more than aroung the throne. Sighing, he went over to the throne, and sat down on it, holding his head. "Ugh...these mindless idiots...to think they know a thing about the Prophecy. No, they don't know. They don't know that I'M an important part in it. They are...too occupied..." he snapped his fingers, and in an instant, two figures appeared. They seemed like children in physical appearance, one of them dressed in a black outfit with red trims. His hood had two red, glaring dots from the black hood, which extened to a small cape which reached down to his knees. He wore leather boots, and around his neck, a loose chain connected the cape's sides with each other, a silver moon hanging from the middle link. The other wore resembling clothing, only with white color theme and blue trims. From his cape, two yellow dots were brightly shining, and on his chain's middle link, a golden sun was hanging.
"You rang?" said the black one in a joking matter, sniggering slightly. The white one sighed in an embarrassed fashion, and bobbed his partner in the head.
"Now is not the time for jokes, BK." he said, turning to Broken. "Master, why have you summoned us?"
"Demi, I am going to be blunt..." Broken said, and sat up straight on his throne. "We have a new enemy at our hands, one that could interrupt our operation, and destroy The Prophecy's progress. They are known as the Union of Justice, and they are a quite powerful gathering of "heroes" with extraordinary powers. However, I believe that after Quint's little "visit", one of them seem to have a pretty awful breakup in her mind, and this may weaken the Union's resolve. However, your role in this won't be as soldiers..." BK seemed to wanna start an argue, but Demi shook his head at him. "...You will my personal guards, and guard this very room - The Chamber of The Equlibrium - at all costs. If anyone exept Regulants and their servants come near, kill them. That's an order." Demi and BK nodded, and went away from the room, and stood outside. While standing there, they held their staffs in salute. Both were slender, and made of oak, but Demi's had a white sphere on the top, whilst BK's had a black one.
"......this is boring." BK finally said. Demi sighed, and gave in, nodding in approval.
"Might be so, BK, but this is what our master wants us to do." he said to his younger brother. BK groaned and leaned to the wall, sliding down till' he sat down on the floor.
"Geez, why can't we fight too?" he said, as Demi sat down as well. "I mean, we can easily whoop that Union's asses, I think! I'll just throw a Meteor up their arses!"
"I agree that we can beat them, but I do not want us to be recklessly throwing ourselves into a fight." Demi countered.
"Touché, Demi. Tou-ché."
To be continued...
"Ben?! Ben!! BEN, WAKE UP!!" Rika cried and shouted, shaking Ben's seemingly lifeless body. "Please, get up!!" but Ben wasn't getting up. He was still as lifeless as he was when Rika first started to try and wake him. Quint was smirking in the background, his grin being that of a beast.
"I'm afraid that is no way of wakin' him." he chuckled coldly. Rika turned to Quint, her face filled with fear and sadness. "That's right, heh. Your precious little Ben is dead. Finito. No more. Not comin' back. Catch my point? You just gotta deal with it." Quint then turned around and saw a sphere hover up to him. "Took ya some time, Nexev."
"Hmph, do you have any considerable idea of how long I had to go to get here? I am not some sort of delivery guy who picks up and delivers stuff, I am an inventor and creator." a voice inside the sphere said.
"Whatever, I got you the toy you wanted..." Quint rolled his eyes, and pointed to Ben's body. Rika instantly stood up, and blocked off the path to Ben's body. "Girl, please step aside. I ain't a gentleman, so I don't pull back for a girl."
"No! I-I won't let you have him!" Rika said, tears falling from her eyes. "I-I won't let you. He is no toy you can mess around with. H-He's a person...and the one...whom I loved..."
"Aaaw, gee, that's emotional and all, but we got a pressed schedule at the moment, so why don't you just get the f*ck out of here and never come back?" Quint suggested, grinning still. "Besides, it's not like he REALLY loved ya..."
"W-What? What do you mean?" Rika said, suddenly confused.
"Geez, you really think that he loved ya for one sec?" Quint facepalmed. "What an idiot. Look, the only reason he loved ya was because your silly lil' Ninja boyfriend died, and he wanted to "comfort you after your loss". In other words...replace Lee. He knew that you loved Lee more than him, so when Lee was bye-bye, he decided to take a shot and steal your so-called "irreplacable" love for Lee to himself. You, being such an emotional wreck at the moment, instantly turned to Ben, no matter how much ya try to deny it. He is nothing but a liar and a thief..."
"N-NO! Stop!! I-I won't listen!" Rika said desperately. Seeing her so desperate, Quint's grin grew.
"Oh, but you will. This is only the truth I am speaking, and you know it. You and Ben may have been so cute an' all, but in the end, he was using your love all along. He is still that pathetic lil' maggot you loved to hit and yell at. You're in denial, Rika Nonaka. No-one truly loves you. Accept it, or die in despair here and now." at these words, Rika's world slowly fell apart in front of her. With darkness around her eyes, she fell on her knees, just staring down. Quint smirked. "Good girl." he went up to Rika, then passed her and went up to Ben's body. "Tsk tsk...such a waste of effort he put up. Panini was as easy as Fred to beat the crap out of, and he actually had to exhaust himself with using Way Big. Oh well, I guess things can be used in one way or another..." he grabbed Ben's dead arm, and dragged him towards the floating orb that Nexev's voice emitted from. A light emitted from the orb, and Ben's body turned to a cloud of spiritual energy as it was absorbed into the orb.
"Good, good. This body is still capable of being used for my experiments. Also, I would like to inform that the activation of my Prototype Robot Masters is almost complete. I will soon have Gemini Man up and going. He would surely love to get a share of the unavoidable carnage, if not to admire himself." Nexev grunted at the last sentence. Quint shrugged his shoulders. Since no one exept Broken was allowed into Nexev's lab, he, Fredrik and Kevin had no idea what was going on in there.
"Whatever, just take me along with this thing." he said sternly. The orb shined brightly again, and absorbed Quint into it before flying away. Rika was left there. Alone. And hopeless. Suddenly, Kakashi, Harry and Ron showed up, but too late.
"Damn, we're too late." Kakashi sighed. He looked over to Rika, who just looked at the ground. "Hm? What is it now, Rika? And where's Ben?"
"T-They took him. H-He's dead."

In the Negative Dimension, Fredrik was sitting on the outdoor plateau of the Regulant's HQ, along with two of his servants; Gantenbainne Mosqueda and Findor Carias. Gantenbainne was Arrancar No. 103, having been reduced in rank to Pivardon Espada, and Findor Carias was the 2nd Espada's - Barragan Luisenbarn's - personal Fraccion. Fredrik was in his usual, depressed mood, and just looked up at the sky, which was black as coal and filled with thunderclouds.
"The weather in this cursed land does not seem to change." Gantenbainne stated. "Unlike this place, you can at least see if it's day and night in Hueco Mundo."
"Exacta." Findor replied, looking over to the Pivardon Espada with a slight smirk. "Though this place is closer to our enemies, it is quite depressing. However, no matter how depressing it is, it is ideal for these Regulants, as they have shorter distance to the "real" dimension, I've heard." at this, Fredrik sat up.
"Why must there be battle & bloodshed?" he asked himself. "Nothing good comes from it, and not even having real friends once it's done makes it worth the while. I hate killing innocents."
"Hey, that's what I hate too!" a voice said behind them. Fredrik turned around, and saw Kevin smiling at him and his two Arrancars. "Hi Fred! What'ya doing here?"
"Nothing, Kevin." Fredrik said, a slight smile crossing his lips. "Just sitting here, looking at the sky."
"Ah, mind if I join?" Kevin cheerfully said, and sat next to Fredrik, who just sighed. "Hey, get that frown upside-down! C'mon now, this can't be so bad! I mean, we're really powerful and all, so why worry? It's not like we're gonna die or something!"
"That's what we will do..." Fredrik said. "Don't you know? The enemies we face aren't just regular children and grown-ups. They're as powerful as we are, maybe even more. Kevin, we need to be serious here. Our enemies are the ones that hold up the balance of what they call Good and Evil, and they state that we are the evil ones? But what is so evil in just trying to make the world better? That's what Broken's told me. He wants the world to be free from ignorance and sorrow - free from guilt, anger, greed and despair - he wants to purify it. I can't help but to agree with him, no matter how weird it may sound. I mean, if there was no ignorance, despair and sorrow...I could live my life as a happy person...for everyone would accept and respect me for who I am." according to Fredrik, Broken's plan of purification was a truly marvelous one. If he now could clean away all despair and sorrow, Fredrik wouldn't have to feel these feelings anymore, and he could live as a happy person.
"Well, I guess you're right, but isn't it what those feelings are for?" asked Kevin. "I mean, if we now have sorrow, don't we have sorrow for a reason? Hey, I may be all cheerful, but I too have negative emotions. I just lock them away because I feel that I can do just fine without them! You shouldn't feel all negative either, Fred. You got me and the others!" he patted Fredrik's shoulder, smiling at his MSN-buddy. He knew that if there was something that could cheer up Fredrik, it was to respect him and tell him that he wasn't so bad after all. Fredrik turned to Kevin, smiling.
"Heh, I guess you're right, Kev. Thanks bud." he said, and slapped Kevin a High Five. Kevin returned it, smiling.
"Hey, no prob! Least I can do for you is to make you feel better!" he said, standing up. "Well, I got to go now! See ya!" he leaped off towards the HQ again. Fredrik stood up, looking over the thundering mesa of the Negative Dimension one last time, before turning around.
"Gantenbainne. Findor. Let's be off." he said simply, and went away, with Gantenbainne and Findor following.

Deep down inside the Regulants' base, autonomic sounds and computer bleeps were all that was heard as the plans of a mastermind was carried out. In his massive lab/room, Nexev was frantically working with his schemes and inventions, completely isolated from the other Regulants. The only one that had allowance to enter - since he came and went as he wished for - was Broken, and he had quite the patience for Nexev's plans to be finished. In fact, he did never really care what Nexev was inventing. He only cared when it would be finished. And now - since he had been given Ben's lifeless corpse for some reason he didn't want to explain - he was on top-notch, being all over his lab in preparation for what he called his most "surpreme plot". As he now was in the middle of these master plans, a dark portal rose from the floor, and out of it stepped Broken, his darkness still surrounding him.
"Is this plot of yours done soon?" he asked patiently. Nexev brought a smirk to his face, as he stepped away from one of his desks, facing Broken.
"Almost, great Broken." he replied solemnly. "You see, this extraordinary technique of body reanimation seems so intriguing to me for the moment, and I simply have to try it out."
"And the test subject will be...?"
"Ben Tennyson, of course!" Nexev stated, and pointed to a room. As he went up to it and opened it, chilly winds was flowing out of it. It was a freezing chamber, and inside it was Ben's corpse, frozen and kept in good shape. "His tissues and organs will be kept fresh during this cryogenetic state, so I won't have to be worried about him rottening and decaying, while I perfect my Reanimation Formula and the machine that will inject it. Now then Broken, what was it that you wanted?" Broken turned around as Nexev said this, and looked at the machines in front of him.
"Let's not talk about me now, Nexev." he said. "For there is alot of things to plan if the Prophecy is to be done."
"The Prophecy?" Nexev repeated. "Personally, I don't really believe in such religious humbug, and even if there WAS a Prophecy about the Regulants, then it would include several flaws, such as the "Chosen One's" childhood being filled with misery, and he still had caring parents. That is a major flaw, along with this Negative Dimension magnifying that despair. One's inner despair can only be affected by..."
"By negative emotions from one self." Broken finished. "I know this Nexev, don't take me for a fool. Negative emotions is what breeds our inner chaos, but from chaos, unity is also created. So how can the chaos overcome the unity, if more chaos gives more unity? That is what I believe this Negative Dimension did to the Chosen One. It magnified his negative emotions, and thus, his chaos magnified. But, his unity wasn't magnified, since he had long since locked away his unity, never letting it out. He was the first to live with chaos and darkness only. And so, he was destined to be the leader of the Regulants, an organisation of conserved hatred and sorrow. He was known to become a great person." Broken now went off to a tube in the room, invesitgating it as he spoke. It was filled with a clear liquid, and inside was the body of a robot. It was armored with a reflecting mirror-armor of some sort, with a crystal crown on its helmet, and a cannon on its right hand. "So this is your new...servant?" Nexev nodded.
"Quite correct, along with three more, incomplete ones. He is the first to be completed, I hope, since his stabilizers and energy core is working almost autonomous. He is know as "Gemini Man". A robot named after a star sign, the Twins. He can reproduce an exact replica of himself, and it can attack and talk exactly like its original. Also, his laser rikochet from walls and other flat areas, making it quite versatile. He will be a great soldier." Nexev ended his speech with a smirk. "However, the only flaw is his narcissism, which I can't seem to de-program."
"Fair enough, carry on..." Broken said, as he disappeared in a dark portal once again. This time, he ended up in a large throne room, with no light in it whatsoever more than aroung the throne. Sighing, he went over to the throne, and sat down on it, holding his head. "Ugh...these mindless idiots...to think they know a thing about the Prophecy. No, they don't know. They don't know that I'M an important part in it. They are...too occupied..." he snapped his fingers, and in an instant, two figures appeared. They seemed like children in physical appearance, one of them dressed in a black outfit with red trims. His hood had two red, glaring dots from the black hood, which extened to a small cape which reached down to his knees. He wore leather boots, and around his neck, a loose chain connected the cape's sides with each other, a silver moon hanging from the middle link. The other wore resembling clothing, only with white color theme and blue trims. From his cape, two yellow dots were brightly shining, and on his chain's middle link, a golden sun was hanging.
"You rang?" said the black one in a joking matter, sniggering slightly. The white one sighed in an embarrassed fashion, and bobbed his partner in the head.
"Now is not the time for jokes, BK." he said, turning to Broken. "Master, why have you summoned us?"
"Demi, I am going to be blunt..." Broken said, and sat up straight on his throne. "We have a new enemy at our hands, one that could interrupt our operation, and destroy The Prophecy's progress. They are known as the Union of Justice, and they are a quite powerful gathering of "heroes" with extraordinary powers. However, I believe that after Quint's little "visit", one of them seem to have a pretty awful breakup in her mind, and this may weaken the Union's resolve. However, your role in this won't be as soldiers..." BK seemed to wanna start an argue, but Demi shook his head at him. "...You will my personal guards, and guard this very room - The Chamber of The Equlibrium - at all costs. If anyone exept Regulants and their servants come near, kill them. That's an order." Demi and BK nodded, and went away from the room, and stood outside. While standing there, they held their staffs in salute. Both were slender, and made of oak, but Demi's had a white sphere on the top, whilst BK's had a black one.
"......this is boring." BK finally said. Demi sighed, and gave in, nodding in approval.
"Might be so, BK, but this is what our master wants us to do." he said to his younger brother. BK groaned and leaned to the wall, sliding down till' he sat down on the floor.
"Geez, why can't we fight too?" he said, as Demi sat down as well. "I mean, we can easily whoop that Union's asses, I think! I'll just throw a Meteor up their arses!"
"I agree that we can beat them, but I do not want us to be recklessly throwing ourselves into a fight." Demi countered.
"Touché, Demi. Tou-ché."
