[Kevin's car pulls up at a warehouse]
Ben you sure this is the place?
That's what the tip said.
Yeah that's what worries me. You don't get tips. I get tips. You got no connections.
Come on Kevin. I got connections.
Yeah like who?
Um uh like Gwen.
It's true. He does know me.
A lot of support there Gwen. Thanks.
Ben you already wear the Omnitrix so you already have special dispensation. The Galvan have requested that you not be interfered within minor matters (Turns to Gwen) and the reports i've read have indicated that as you say have never impersonated a Plumber, but you...
Yeah what?
You've got a record. You've done time in the Null Void for a variety of crimes.
(Referring to Kevin) He's changed.
He did his time. He's been helping us.
He's been impersonating a Plumber. (Walks over to Kevin) Give me the badge you stole!
Don't take my badge, man, please.
Now or you're going back to the Null Void. (Kevin gives in and hands Magister Gilhil the badge) Thank you. (Deactivates it) You're free to go, but if you ever get involved in Plumbers business again, I don't care what Azmuth says. You're all going to the Null Void, even you, Ben. (Teleports away)
Is that it? Is this the end?
[At Mr. Smoothy's]
Ben Cheer up. Mr. Smoothy makes everything better. (Hands Kevin his cup)
(tries it) Ugh how does turnip and wheatgrass make anything better? (A little ticked)
Well I like it! Besides it's also got ginger in it.
Oh ginger. That solves our problems (Sarcastically)
Seriously, Ben. Magister Gilhil pretty much just put us out of business. What are we gonna do?
We're going to keep doing what we've been doing; find the aliens. Fight the bad guys.
He said he'd put us in the Null Void.
He also said Plumbers never come around here anymore. We'll worry about it when or should I say if he ever shows up again.
He took my badge!
(Mocks Kevin and changes voice) Badges? We don't need any stinking badges!
(Enraged) You think this is a joke?! (Grabs and lifts Ben)
Kevin, let him go! (Kevin violently throws Ben onto the hood of his car)
[Enraged] Dude!
I wanna be a Plumber, okay? When I was little, my mom would tell me stories about my dad. How he was a Plumber and he did all this cool stuff.
I never met your dad.
Me either, but I still wanna be like him.
That's why you know so much about the Plumbers and alien technology and everything.
It's why I agreed to help you guys in the first place mostly. I need my badge back Ben. It's the only thing that matters. (Gets in and drives off)
(The masked stranger barges into the castle and the Forever Knights tried to fight it, but it easily defeats them)
(The masked stranger barges in) Who are you? What insignificant for dares to enter the castle of the Forever Knights? (The stranger remains silent) It doesn't matter. Dead men don't need names! (Sends the stranger flying with one hit)
(Lifts giant piece of stone) Nice shot. You're just as strong as I heard. (Connor tried to fight, but the stranger hits him with the stone) That's it. Show me all of your power. (Feeds on Connor's power) Give me your strength.
(on the floor) What do you want from me?
(Looks down at him) I want to make a deal.
I brought you a present. (Throws Kevin a wooden ball)
(catches it) What's this?
A wooden ball. Absorb it. (Kevin absorbed it) How about this one? (Throws Kevin a metal ball, which he catched and absorbed) It's a ball bearing. Made out of uh I don't know ball bearing stuff.
Stainless steel.
I brought you a whole bag of them. All made of different materials. That way when you fight, you can change to whatever you want.
Thank you, but it doesn't really work that way. I need a lot of whatever i'm copying.
Oh.
And what makes you think I'm still helping you guys anyway?
(Holded his hand and Kevin absorbed her skin) Because you've changed.
Maybe, but i'm still on parole. That Magister can put me back in that Null Void anytime he wants.
(Gwen and Kevin are about to kiss, but the Highbreed broke in)
(Breaks through garage wall) You scums. I will cleanse the planet of your filth.
Looks like I picked the wrong day to give up fighting monsters. (Absorbs metal from his car)
It's a Highbreed. Ben said they're too strong for us.
Well, Ben ain't here. (Attacked the Highbreed)
(Grabs the Highbreed's arm) Hey ugly, why don't you pick someone your own size? (throws him)
(talking to the team) I wouldn't if I were you. (Spoke in an alien language and Magister Gilhil appears)
Didn't take you kids long to get yourselves into trouble again did it?
Us? We were just…
…attacking me for no reason.
He's one of the aliens we told you about. He's attacking the Earth!
Sure kid. How about some proof?
They attacked me for no reason. They said they were Plumbers.
I've heard enough. You three are under arrest and you. I don't know what's going on here, but i'm gonna find out. You're coming with me for questioning.
I beg to differ. No one's going anywhere not until I make your powers my own. (Starts absorbing the power of the 4 of them. Gwen is able to shield herself)
You promised me that if I help you... (Groaned in pain and loses consciousness)
I can't be trusted! (Humungousaur tries to walk towards him) I almost forgot how strong you are Ben. (Humungousaur reverts to Ben)
(in a pained tone, holding his chest in pain) Who... are you... and how did you... (Realizes who the masked stranger is and widens his eyes. Looks back at Gwen who's fighting off his powers) Gwen! Run!
What?!
You've got to get away. You're our only hope! Run!! Uhhh... (Loses consciousness)
(Gwen managed to stop the masked stranger's attack and escaped)
You can't run forever lovely Gwen. I'll have my revenge on you too, but first things first. (We zoom over the unconscious Ben, Kevin, Gilhil, and the Highbreed)
[In some lab, Ben, Kevin, Magister Gilhil, and the Highbreed are all in a rig with their bodies chained up]
I don't understand what's going on. That's the guy who tipped me off that you were impersonating Plumbers.
And he scammed Big Ugly too. [The Highbreed snarls at him] Well, he did. Don't snarl at me.
I know who he is.
Do you really?
You had to be somebody who knows all the Plumbers and the Highbreed, but most importantly, you had to be someone with a grudge against us. Why don't you take off the dopey mask, Michael?
Wait, that's Michael Morningstar? The creep who tried to steal Gwen from-- [blushes] Who, who stole all the powers from those girls at his prep school?
When you ruined my plan, you nearly destroyed me, but over the weeks, my powers returned. Stronger than ever and so did my hunger. My old method of feeding is no longer sufficient.
High school girls too tough for you, huh?
To the contrary. I need more power than they can supply. Michael Morningstar no longer exists. [takes off his mask, revealing his hideous face] Now I am Darkstar.
[disgusted at his new look] Eeuugghh!
You did this to me and you will feed my hunger! (Shoots his beams at the four and starts absorbing their powers) I will take your strength and make it my own until you have no more to give.
(To Ben in a pained voice) If you can reach your Omnitrix… maybe Alien X.
(in a pained voice) No! If he absorbed all that power, nothing could stop him!
Eventually, I'll have it all, anyway.
Michael! [Darkstar turns around; disgusted] Ew. I swear you were better looking when we used to go out.
Laugh while you can. I've got all the power of your teammates. Plus the Highbreed and the Plumber. How can you possibly hope to defeat me alone?
Who said anything about alone? [An army of DNAliens appear, threatening to attack Darkstar for kidnapping their leader] They're pretty mad about you kidnapping their boss.
Nighty-night! [smashes Darkstar with both feet]
[As the smoke clears, Gwen, Kevin and Magister Gilhill see that the Highbreed and DNAliens have escaped]
The Highbreed is gone.
The DNAliens must've sprung him while we were fighting. [Humungousaur lifts his foot off of Darkstar as he is knocked out unconscious and changes to back Ben who is about to pass out] You okay man?
(Humungousaur reverts to Ben)
Tired.
(Holded him) Sit down and catch your breath.
Is he okay?
(Weakly) Everything spinning... going dim... need smoothie.
He's fine.
(Referring to Darkstar) You sure that rig will hold him?
It's level 6 technology son. He isn't going anywhere, but the Null Void.
What about us?
I've been giving that some thought. You guys made a difference today.
And?
Maybe I don't need to re-assign good men to this quadrant. Maybe they're already here. (Referring to the team)
What's that mean?
You've been drafted. (Hands Kevin a badge) Here's your badge back (Hands Gwen a badge) and here's one for you. (Ben gestures to himself) Don't push it kid. You've already got the Omnitrix. As of now, you're the only law in the quadrant. Do a good job. (Teleports away with Darkstar)
(Kevin started walking) Hey where are you going?
(Looked at his badge, then at Ben and Gwen) I gotta tell my mom. [Walked away with Ben and Gwen looking on]
