Ben 10 Porn Story: Alien Demon or Undead Chapter 13
A/N: This is where I pull out my “responsible adult” card and remind everyone that this fic is rated T for violence and profanity. This chapter earns that rating and I feel the need to add a couple of warnings here. Since this is listed as Action/Horror, it stands to reason that at some point, people are going to get hurt, possibly even killed. If you have a problem with violence (and if you do, I wonder how you managed to get this far in this story, but I digress…), then you might not want to read this chapter. However, if you’d like to read the biggest fight scene in the story, then this is where it starts.
Chapter Thirteen
It was hard to believe that only one week ago, he had received the phone call that threw him into this nightmare. It was a routine investigation of alien activity, but it showed him that creatures could walk out of horror stories. He learned more than that, though. Ben learned that sometimes, the stories aren’t entirely true. As the trio pulled up in front of the house, it finally sunk in that they were trusting their lives, and the fate of their world, to a group of vampires who weren’t even from Earth.
You sure you want to do this? Kevin asked, looking at him in the rearview mirror.
Let’s go, was all he said in response.
As the sun set on Friday evening, the three teenagers ascended the steps, determination etched into their features as the entered the house. At first, it seemed like they had left their world behind. The living room was exactly as Kevin had described, but nearly a dozen armored figures stood around the large table to receive their final instructions for the upcoming battle. A sheet of parchment was stretched across the wooden surface and, as the trio approached, they noticed that it showed the layout of Los Soledad.
Lothan and Karian stood on either side of Lalasa while Dravias and Abigalia were standing to the left of the youngest vampire. Lalasa exchanged a few words with one of the knights before the group turned to depart. Once the members of her guard had left, she focused her attention on the teenagers.
There are two more units moving into place as we speak, she began. Their orders are to use only as much force as necessary to herd the DNAliens towards the southwest corner of the facility. It will be easier to transport them if they are all in a single location.
Our main concerns are these structures, Lothan explained, motioning to the towers marked on several areas of the map. It’s likely that their technology will interfere with the magic required to complete this plan, so our first priority will be to remove them.
Take down their weather control towers? Kevin smirked as he folded his arms over his chest. No problem.
I will only ask this once, Lalasa said, looking at each of them in turn. With the amount of technology in that place, I cannot expend the energy to Ward anyone, not even myself. This makes this even more dangerous for all involved. If you have any doubts or if you feel that you are unable to take the risk, then now is the time to walk away. No one here will blame you if you decide not to accompany us.
We’re not walking away from this, Ben stated.
Very well, she said. Lothan and Karian will make their way to the central command station. I will be assisting our Guard with the DNAliens. Dravias and Abigalia will be with you three. You have fought these aliens many times, so they will follow whatever instructions you have for them. If possible, once the towers have been destroyed, try to meet up with Lothan and Karian. It would be beneficial to have you there when they are trying to forge a truce.
Wait, Gwen interrupted. We’re going in there and blowing up their towers, kidnapping the DNAliens, and you think they’re going to agree to a truce?
If faced with the choice of a truce or death, most reasonable species will at least consider the former, Lothan replied. We can only hope that the Highbreed will choose to be reasonable.
We will deal with that when the time comes, Lalasa decided. Are there any questions before we go? Silence answered her and she nodded to them. Alright, if everyone is ready, then it is time.

I hate driving on wet sand, Kevin complained. We’re in the freakin’ desert and it decides to rain tonight.
Perhaps it is a sign, Abigalia remarked, almost to herself.
Everyone knows what to do, right? Ben asked. We go in, do what we came here to do and…
And then get the hell out, Kevin finished for him.
Right, Gwen said.
He stopped the car outside of the walls and the group stepped out into the rain. Lalasa, Lothan, and Karian stood in the middle of about thirty knights, speaking quickly before turning their attention to the others. Ben turned the dial on the Omnitrix and slammed his down onto the image, his bones and muscles stretching and reshaping him into Humongosaur.
At Lalasa’s signal, the knights drew their weapons and charged through the invisible shield of the cloaking device, disappearing into the previously abandoned facility. No words of wisdom or encouragement were offered as the vampires followed and the five remaining humans took their cue to enter as well.
Chaos reigned within the walls as the knights held a steady line to push the DNAliens back. Lalasa stood at the center of the line, sword drawn and fangs bared as they slowly herded the horde away from their allies. Gwen threw up a shield as the aliens noticed their presence, blocking the laser fire that was sent in their direction. Within the transparent dome, the rain had turned to snow, small flakes dusting the ground as they continued forward.
What sorcery is this? Abigalia asked as she slid a thin Elven sword from the sheath at her hip.
Its the towers, Ben replied. The aliens are using them to control the weather.
Not for long, Kevin promised as he placed his hand on the nearest piece of metal.
As the silver coating spread across his skin, he rushed forward, metal fists colliding with the first DNAlien to cross his path. While the knights had managed to push back the bulk of the aliens, many more had stepped up to take their place. Humongosaur shoved his way through, clearing a path with the assistance of Gwen and Kevin. Abilgalia and Dravias took the opposite flanks, incapacitating any alien that got too close. By the time they reached the first tower, at least two dozen DNAliens lay unconscious behind them.
How in the name of the gods are we supposed to destroy this? Dravias asked, staring up at the structure.
Youre up, Tennyson, Kevin said in response.
Im on it! Bracing himself, Humongosaur grasped the machine, muscles straining as he grew to nearly sixty feet in height.
Sometime today, Ben! Gwen shouted as another round of laser fire sent thin cracks through her mana shield.
Gritting his teeth, he shoved with all of his strength, sending the structure crashing to the ground. Sparks flew from the twisted metal, thick clouds of smoke rising into the air. With a flash of green, Ben reverted to his normal form, eyes wide as the sparks ignited a small fire at the base of the ruined tower.
Everybody down! he shouted, diving for cover.
The explosion shook the ground as debris rained down on the group. When they dared to look up again, a swarm of DNAliens had formed around them. Kevin swore under his breath as he jumped to his feet, the metallic coating on his skin chipped in several places.
Dravias reached into his pocket as he rolled to the side and threw a handful of marble-sized objects at the approaching threat. The tiny spheres burst apart above the aliens, releasing a pale yellow vapor into the crowd. One by one, the mutated creatures fell to the dirt, gasping for air as the mist worked its way through their systems.
What did you do to them? Gwen demanded.
Old gypsy trick, Dravias replied, managing a grin as he tried to catch his breath. They will be fine when they wake up, which should be in about an hour or so.
Which gives us time to destroy the other towers, Abigalia added.
One down, two to go, Ben stated with a nod.
*****
Karian looked up as smoke and flame filled the air. He and Lothan had reached the central command center with minimal difficultly, avoiding the aliens wherever possible. The white-haired vampire cast a glance towards the southwest, his eyes narrowing as he watched one of the knights fall.
They need our help down there, he said. We were not planning to confront the Highbreed without the others and we are doing them no good by standing here.
Go assist our new allies, Lothan decided. I will join ranks with the Guard.
With a nod, Karian jumped down from the roof of the ruined building, landing silently on the ground. Lothan watched him weave his way through small clusters of DNAliens, leaving many of them wounded and unconscious in his wake, before turning his gaze towards the advancing line of armored figures.
Time to have some fun, he said quietly as his eyes began to glow.
*****
We cannot hold them forever! one of the knights shouted as he slammed the hilt of his sword into the closest alien.
We will not have to, Lalasa replied. The interference has lessened. I should be able to start transporting them as soon as another one of those devices is disabled.
She held her hand up, concentrating as a small sphere of flame formed above her fingertips. A slight smile found its way onto her lips as she hurled the fireball at the creatures to force them back. Small beads of crimson sweat formed on her brow as she repeated the motion, doing everything she could to keep them as far away from her knights as possible.
Save your magic, Lothan said as he stopped beside her. You will not be able to transport this many of them if you are exhausted when the time comes.
I will be fine, she insisted. Turning her head to look past him, she watched another one of her Guard fall to the DNAliens. Hold the line! she ordered. Lothan, take that end and I will watch this side. Where is Karian?
Assisting with the towers, he replied before rushing off to the east.
Good. They need to get them down, now!
*****
They destroyed the second weather-controlling tower using the same method as the first, but by the time they reached the third one, all of them were showing the signs of the fight. Gwens clothes were torn in several places where she had been grazed by the enemy weapons. Kevin wasnt faring much better. His right shoulder was dislocated and one eye was swollen shut. Even Ben, who had been using his alien forms to fight the DNAliens and topple the machines, was barely able to stand. Fatigue had worked its way into his system from both the battle and the constant use of the Omnitrix.
Abigalia and Dravias had relatively few wounds aside from minor scratches, but it was obvious that they were exhausted. As they neared the third tower, Karian reached them, stopping suddenly when he noticed their appearance. No words were needed between them and he turned suddenly to begin clearing away the final distance to the device.
I think I have one more left in me, Ben said when they arrived at the structure. He turned the dial on the Omnitrix, stopping when the hologram of Humongosaur was visible, but Kevin grabbed his wrist before he could complete the motion.
You sure you got this? he asked.
Do you have a better idea? Ben countered.
I do, Karian said. We must decide quick, though. There are more of them heading in this direction. Kevin, your ability increases your strength based on what you touch, correct? When the teen nodded, he continued. You and I will knock this one down. The rest of you, find a safe are and provide cover for us if needed.
Theres just one problem with that, Gwen replied, motioning to Kevin. Does he look like hes in any shape to push that thing over?
Ill be fine, Kevin snapped. Lets just do this.
No, the vampire stated. Gwen is right. We need to do something about that shoulder.
What the hell do you think youre doing? the dark-haired teen demanded when Karian reached for his arm.
Placing your shoulder back in the proper position, he replied impatiently. Unless, of course, you would rather damage it beyond repair? Glancing over to a nearby building, he spoke again. They will be upon us in a few moments.
We dont have time to argue about this, Ben spoke up. Kevin, just let him do it so we can get rid of this thing.
Fine, he grumbled as the remains of the metal coating slid off of his skin.
This is going to hurt, Karian warned.
In one swift motion, the vampire grabbed the teenagers shoulder, using just enough of his strength to force the joint back into place. Kevin let out an obscenity-filled shout of pain, staggering back a few paces. Black spots swam through his vision as an overwhelming wave of nausea washed over him. A small hand pressed a glass vial into his palm and he forced his eyes to focus on Abigalia.
Drink this, she told him. It will help with the pain and accelerate the healing process.
He eyed it suspiciously as she uncorked it and handed it back to him. The sound of the approaching aliens made the decision for him and he poured the contents into his mouth. Kevin nearly gagged on the bitter liquid, but once he had swallowed it, he noticed the pain beginning to recede.
Were out of time guys! Ben prompted as his hand pressed down on the Omnitrix. Knock it down, Echo Echos voice ordered. Well cover you.
The DNAliens rounded the corner as Karian and Kevin turned to face the tower. The teenager pressed his palms on it, absorbing the metal as he and the vampire pushed. At first, the structure did not even budge, but as they continued to use their combined strength against it, the base began to crack.
Half a doze Echo Echoes spread out in a semi-circle, sending waves of sonic energy at the approaching creatures. Gwen fired volley after volley of mana bursts at them, each blast knocking another alien down. Abigalia deflected a round of laser fire with the blade of her sword and danced forward to cleanly slice through the back of the beasts leg.
Careful! one Echo Echo admonished. Were trying not to hurt them more than we have to!
They can be healed later, she argued.
Dravias saw the pair of aliens emerge from a nearby building before his comrades and his gaze followed the aim of their weapons, his eyes widening when he realized who their target was. He realized that he wouldnt have time to call out a warning and for his companion to move out of the way, so he took the only option remaining. Turning to the side, he ran the few short feet to his wife, knocking her out of the way as the deadly, red beams tore through his chest. As the final tower crashed to the ground, filling the air with smoke and flame, Dravias fell.
Running off of adrenaline alone, Gwen turned to the newest threat and threw a series of bright balls of mana at them. One by one, they fell down, their weapons sliding across the sand. Abigalia coughed as the dust filled her lungs and rolled over as she lifted her blade to defend herself. Confusion clouded her features as she stood, realizing their adversaries had either fled or been otherwise dispatched. The delicate sword fell from numb fingers as her gaze settled on the still form of her husband.
No! The bitter cry of denial sliced through the air as she fell to her knees beside him, her small hands grasping his shoulders as she tried in vain to wake him. Dravias, no Tears stung her eyes as she choked back sobs, her voice barely audible. You cannot leave me Not like this
The multiple forms of Echo Echo converged into one as Ben shifted back to his true form, eyes wide in shock. Kevin and Karian turned around, both frozen in place by the scene before them. Gwen lifted a hand to cover her mouth, unwilling to acknowledge what she was seeing. Karian was the first to move, reaching the elf before anyone could even register the movement. He knelt down on the other side of the fallen gypsy, his expression a mixture of sorrow and anger.
Do something, Abigalia demanded, staring up at him.
There is nothing I can do for him, he replied softly.
Yes, there is, she insisted. You can
No. He shook his head slowly. It is too late, Abigalia. His voice failed him for a moment before he was able to whisper the words, He is gone.
As he stood, she lunged at him, her fists pounding against his chest. Karian held her gently, waiting until her outburst had slowed to quiet sobs. Staring down at Dravias, he whispered soothing words to the elf even as rage boiled within him. After a moment, he grasped her shoulders and pushed her to arms length.
Abigalia, listen to me, he said sternly, his emerald eyes intense as he met her gaze. We will mourn him when this is done, but not on the field of battle. For now, we must finish this.
A/N: The rest of the battle will take place in Chapter Fourteen, which is currently in progress. Please take the time to review. It would be greatly appreciated.
