Chereads / Ben 10: The Ultimate Predator / Chapter 51 - CH 49: Alistair VS Jen

Chapter 51 - CH 49: Alistair VS Jen

Alistair :"I can't believe you would do something that stupid!"

Jen :"Babe, I think we all know I could and would do something that stupid."

--------------------------

Before Kevina could continue the argument, Ken turned to Alistair :"Right, what's with that? What's the difference between aliens and predators?"

Jen and Kevina narrowed their eyes at each other, but grew genuinely curious. Stopping their bantering, they looked at Alistair who explained :"The name is pretty self-explanatory, no?

Basically, predators are the natural predators of aliens. They're species that have evolved specifically to prey on certain alien species. The DNA samples of those predators are in the Nemetrix. Hence the name, Nemetrix. Nemesis trix."

"So you can turn into my aliens on top of being able to turn into their natural hunters?" Jen raised an accusing eyebrow, sighing as he smiled sheepishly :"Great. I guess your universe's Azmuth is an awesome guy, unlike ours."

"Azmuth?"

"Oh, he's the creator of these watches. He's a Galvan, like Grey Matter. Or whatever you call yours."

"It's Brainiac."

"Not a bad name."

Alistair :"Thank you~."

Jen started thinking about something for a moment, before smirking at Alistair :"Then, Alistair, shall we spar? Don't think just because you have predators or whatever you'll be able to win. I promise you'll learn a thing or two from the professional here too."

Alistair's lighthearted smile turned into a small, evil smirk :"You sure, sweetheart? You do realize that predators have powers that completely counter their prey, right?"

But Jen didn't seem worried :"Oh, please. You're talking as if I haven't gone against enemies that have had counters for my aliens. Don't worry though, I won't be too mean to you."

Chuckling sinisterly, he got all up and personal with her, both of them smirking :"Oh, it's on, Jen. It's on."

"This ought to be interesting." Maxine mused :"Alright, I'll have the guys prepare the sparring field so you can have fun."

As Maxine left the room, Alistair reached out a hand to Jen :"Give me your left hand for a second."

"Huh? Alright?" Jen grabbed his hand, growing amazed at how rough and strong the larger hand was. She grew conscious of how even his fingers were muscular and how they flexed around her hand.

But she was pulled out of her amazement as he suddenly transformed :"Ultimate Brainiac!" The Galvan chad with a jawline gifted by the Galvan Jesus himself appeared, the tail-like appendage attached to the back of his head floating gracefully.

"Whoaaa!" Jen's eyes widened as he stood on her palm, Kevina and Ken closing in to see as well. Ken looked especially amazed :"So this is the ultimate version of Grey Matter? Grey Matter is smart as it is, who knows how smart this guy is."

"Very, very smart." Ultimate Brainiac smirked, voice smooth like butter :"Here, let me show you." As he casually waved his hand, the area around his hand suddenly turned into pure white.

Not as if painting the thin air, but as if everything in the area his hand passed through simply... disappeared. Seized to exist entirely. A chill ran down the trio's spines at the scene before Jen questioned :"U-uh, Alistair, w-what did you do?"

His smirk turned dark :"I decoded this part of the universe." They felt the same chill as he continued :"Ultimate Brainiac has intelligence far beyond comprehension. It's to the point where he can calculate existence itself. As if the universe itself is a calculation to him. And well, by subtracting some things from that calculation, he can erase things from existence with just his intelligence. I like to call it decoding though. It's more fun."

As he looked up, he mused at their shocked faces. Eyes and mouths wide open at what they heard. His smile turned lighthearted again as he swiped his hand over the white spot, causing it to go back to normal :"But well, I can simply add that subtracted part back to the universe, causing it to recover. So the effect isn't permanent. If I don't want it, that is. Anyways, we got off topic there."

Moving up on her hand, he started to mess with Jen's Omnitrix, causing her to come back from her shocked trance :"W-what are you doing now? Don't tell me you're going to erase the Omnitrix from existence!"

Ultimate Brainiac rolled his eyes as Jen covered her Omniverse :"No, I'm not, geez. Don't worry, I promise you'll like this. Trust me, alright? Why would I even do that?"

"Uuh..." Jen smiled sheepishly :"Alright, since you asked nicely." As she lifted her hand, they watched him mess with the Omnitrix for a bit before closing it :"There, done."

They looked confused, but the Omnitrix's voice suddenly came :"Master Control unlocked." They were shocked stupid again.

"You know how to unlock Master Control?!" Jen exclaimed and Ultimate Brainiac, with a smirk, transformed back :"Of course I do. Figured out the trick long ago. Oh, but yours is temporary though. It's active only for a few hours so we can spar for as long as we want, with anything we want."

Jen grinned :"You do realize that there are over a million transformations in this, right? You think you can fight against all of them?"

Alistair smirked :"I don't think I can, I know I can. Also, sorry to burst your bubble, but I didn't activate the full power of your Omnitrix. You still can only transform into what you've had until now."

"Aww, come on! You're just scared."

"No, I'm not. Since the creator of the Omnitrix still hasn't given you its full power, then I can't do it either. The free transformation for a bit is already enough."

"Haaah... fine." She sighed, before cheering up again :"But I guess I can't be disappointed either. I can kick your butt with my own aliens anyway!"

He scoffed lightly, smirking :"We'll see, Jen. We'll see."

-

Standing in the huge arena fit even for Humungousaur to use easily, Alistair and Jen stared at each other confidently.

"Shall we start?" Alistair smirked as Jen smirked back :"I don't see why not!" Smacking the Omnitrix, she transformed :"Humungousaur! Oh, yeah, baby! On the first try hahahahaha!" Seeing Humungousaur with tits, Alistair didn't know how to feel :"Come on, Alistair, let's hustle!"

"With pleasure!" And he transformed as well :"(T-Rex!)" The predator of Humungousaur, the giant space dinosaur, appeared with a roar, talking through the Techtrix :"(Then let's see how you fight with your natural predator, Jen!)"

Looking up at T-Rex, who was twice her size just in height, Jen was speechless :"...The predator concept was cool as hell, but I don't think I like it very much now..."

With a roar, T-Rex rushed towards Humungousaur. As his jaw snapped at her, she dodged to the side quickly before throwing several punches.

As he groaned, she rushed and grabbed his head, intending to push him away and make him fall. But she underestimated T-Rex's strength. He was the natural predator of Humungousaur's species for a reason.

Standing firmly, he pushed her away instead before lifting her up and slamming her to the ground. Humungousaur groaned, the slam making her let go of T-Rex.

As he stood up, his jaw snapped towards Jen. Her eyes widened before he was blinded by a green light. He didn't stop his attack, but only managed to bite the ground.

Looking down in confusion, he heard something sliding on the ground at a fast speed. He turned to see XLR8 smirking at him :"Sorry, but power isn't all there is to it. Catch me if you can!"

Disappearing from place, he felt her attacks from all over the place. Although her attacks didn't do much, he wasn't able to do much thanks to her speed.

"(Don't mind if I do.)" He smirked sinisterly, transforming again :"(Pelivoid!)" As the giant pelican-like alien with a body akin to a rhino appeared, XLR8 smirked :"And I thought some of my aliens were ugly!"

-

[Pelivoid Description: Predator of Kinecelerans. Can absorb kinetic energy to slow down Kinecelerans, rendering them unable to run. It can create a vacuum from its mouth that sucks everything in the vicinity inside, and is strong enough that Kinecelerans can't escape from it. It's too heavy and durable for Kinecelerans to move or damage.]

-

But Pelivoid just smirked as her attacks had no effect :"(Sorry, Babe, but I care more about efficiency than the appearance!)"

Suddenly, her speed dropped sharply :"Hey, what gives?!" But her eyes widened as his thick tail crashed into her, shooting her away.

"(You good, Jen?)" He snickered, but was struck by lightning after she transformed again :"Graaar!!" As he roared in pain, Ampfibian, the jellyfish-like electric alien, floated out of the dust :"Aww, I'm not hurting you too much, am I? Feel free to stop any time it's too much!"

The electricity grew even more intense, causing his roars to grow louder with it :"(Don't... even... count on it!)"

"[Unidentified DNA detected, proceeding to scanning.]" Ampfibian groaned :"Oh, perfect." While the Nemetrix continued :"[New alien and predator DNA unlocked: Amperi and Intactilis Turtur.]"

-

"[Intactilis Turtur Description: This predator usually floats through the gasses of the planet Tesslos hoping to find some prey, when it finds it, it propels itself quickly in its "propulsion mode" (look at the second image), This species has two brains, each of them thinks of different actions to prevent the Amperis from reading their mind and knowing their next move.

This species can become intangible like Amperis in case they want to escape from inside the mouth or stomach, since the amphibian's intangibility is canceled when facing another intangible being. Like all species of Tesslos, it has adapted to manipulate the power of the electromagnetic fields of this planet, in this case it uses them to fly faster in the gasses of Tesslos, using this energy to propel himself.]"

-

Alistair transformed yet again :"(Electurtle!)" As his new predator appeared, Ampfibian's lightning was absorbed by him :"(I told you! Whatever you have, I have the perfect counter for it!)"

With a roar, a red lightning breath was shot from his mouth. But Ampfibian chuckled :"Bold of you to assume I wouldn't be able to do the same." Instead of harming her, the lightning was absorbed instead.

But her eyes widened as Electurtle showed up charging behind the lightning :"Damn it!" Just as she was about to get hit, she transformed hastily :"Goop!"

Causing no damage to be received when he crashed into her liquid body :"Can't hurt what you can't hit, Al!" But he smirked :"(You're really underestimating me. Don't forget that this predator isn't just about pure strength.)"

"Oh, no-" As his red electricity surged through his body, Goop's Anti-Gravity Projector was electrocuted. Causing her to turn into a green puddle on the ground as Electurtle kept it at bay.

She transformed again, and Electurtle felt all the electricity he was releasing get absorbed quickly :"Chromastone!" Just as his eyes widened, a rainbow colored beam shot him away. The electricity she had absorbed from him had supercharged her attack.

"Thanks for the boost, Al! You're a real sweetheart!" As he got up, her rainbow beams came shooting him again. He roared in pain, backing off as her supercharged attack actually hurt.

He heard Jen's smug laughter :"Let me guess, you don't have a predator for Chromastone, right? After all, there has only been one living Crystalsapien! How could a predator have evolved to hunt down a single alien?"

He gritted his teeth, actually hurting, but still grinned :'Damn, I guess I underestimated Jen's intelligence.' "(You're seriously smart if you figured that kind of a method to counter me, but it's not like I don't have other methods of beating you! If I can't negate (A/N: Negate?!) your powers, then I'll out muscle them!)"

And he transformed :"(Crabdozer!)" As Heatblast's natural predator was resistant to some energies, he was able to charge towards Chromastone while ignoring some of the pain.

Jen, used to quickly transforming now, turned to XLR8 to quickly dodge and make some distance, before rushing towards Crabdozer quickly. But suddenly, she transformed in the middle of running :"Armodrillo!"

She came flying towards him as her mechanic hands turned drills, and she threw a punch at Crabdozer. The force behind the running and Armodrillo's strength enough to knock him off his feet.

(A/N: Guys, a quick notice. Please read this part. You see, I was under the assumption that you couldn't post fanfiction on Patreon, hence why I wrote my own book to earn some money. But I've found out that it's actually legal.

Guys, I'm a college student in an unfamiliar city where I don't know anybody, so I'm actually really in need of money since I don't want to be too dependent on my parents. I already have a part-time job too. If you can, emphasize on the CAN, then please feel free to support me on my Patreon, That_One_Dead_Ali, where I will be posting chapters early! The prices are really low too, I think!

-

5 chapters: $3

10 chapters: $5

-

Currently, these are the prices. Although I haven't written the chapters yet. It's NOT that I won't post chapters here, but that I'll post chapters early there. For example, I'll post CH 51 after posting CH 56 in my Patreon. I'll still post CH 50 first though, since I've decided to put it in Patreon after CH 50. Even if you don't visit my Patreon, I still hope you'll have fun here, cause I'll be posting!)
