Ben 10 Porn Story: Embracing you CH.8

Gwen woke with a start. She hadn’t even realized she’s fallen asleep until they’d hit a bump. Gwen looked up to see Max and Verdona sitting in the front talking softly. Verdona’s arms were holding something. No doubt it was Hex… Hex… Gwen froze as memories came back to her.

Hex and the Fountain of Youth was all coming back to her. Why were the others so calm about this? Surely they’d figured this out too? Gwen stood up and walked to the front of the Rustbucket. Verdona smiled at her, “How are you feeling, Honey?” Gwen scrunched her noise. Verdona called her Gwendolyn or Sweetie. Never anything else.

She smiled and played along, “I’m feeling fine. Are we almost to Washington?” Max nodded.

“Sure are, Dear.” never! He always called her Gwen. Max wouldn’t call her any stupid pet names. She knew that better then anyone.

“Thanks, Grandpa.” she walked back to the little ‘room’ she shared with Ben and smiled to see him awake and well, “Good Morning.”

“Morning, Gwen.” she jumped at him and held on tightly to his neck as his arms slipped around her. She snuggled into his neck and started to cry. Ben looked down at her in confusion, “Gwen?”

“I thought you were badly injured or dead! Verdona explained to me how Anodites’ power triples when they’re angry and how that can cause a death if the power hits someone directly… I was so worried.” I thought you’d left me.

Ben rocked her gently and kissed her forehead before looking at the drawn curtains, “I guess you figured out that the sun was hurting my eyes.” Gwen smiled and snuggled deeper into him. Tears were still falling and Ben was trying to distract her. Gwen sat up suddenly and looked down at her cousin.

“Ben… do you think there’s something weird about that baby?” Ben shrugged.

“Wildmutt and Andy, my Anodite form, both sensed danger near you, but the Baby wasn’t the source. It was something else, but it was close. I don’t think that that baby is a problem.” Gwen shifted nervously.

“I think it’s messing with our minds. Hex could do that, and I think this baby is Hex, if not his child.” Ben shook his head.

“No… Wildmutt knows Hex’s sent, that baby isn’t Hex, unless something has changed. It’s like you. After we…um… had sex, your sent changed. You use to smell like warm days and morning dew, but now you smell-” Ben buried his face into her shoulder for a moment, “-like water lilies and summer evenings.” Gwen looked at Ben oddly. His green eyes, for just a moment, turned black, and became more…dog like.

Gwen touched the corner of his left eye and traced a line down to his chin, “Ben… do you know what’s wrong with you?” he gave her a playful grin and kissed her quickly. She pushed him back and glared into his eyes, “Ben. If you know… you need to tell me! I could have been saving you the pain if you had told me!” Ben shook his head and kissed her warm lips again.

“What your doing, what you’ve been doing, your kisses and touch is all I need to get better. It’s fine, Gwen. Soon, I’ll be happy and healthy. Just be with me and I’ll live.” Gwen pushed his away again.

“Why won’t you tell me!? I know it has something to do with the Omnitrix! I also know that your no longer just the host of it, but you are the Omnitrix.” Ben rolled them so she was below him.

“What do you want, Gwen? Do you want me, or the Omnitrix? Do you hate me now that I’m just a biological weapon?” Gwen glared up at him.

“And if I do? The Omnitrix has done nothing but caused trouble! I’ve watched it ruin you time and again! I’ve watched as people have used you just because of the power the Omnitrix holds, and I’ve seen you get hurt because of it. Now your no better then that damn thing!” Ben got off Gwen and pulled back from her. He reacted much as if she had told him she hated him… she had told him that.

Ben looked down, “I’m sorry…” Gwen sat up, she was still angry.

“Then get rid of it! Kevin, Kai, Vilgax, the Plumbers, and even Charmcaster! They’ve all used you for that damned thing!” Ben looked at her, he looked up into the deep green eyes of his love, and felt his chest collapse.

“I can’t, Gwen… it’s really part of me now… I can’t ever be rid of it.” Gwen blinked away tears and covered her mouth, “That’s why I’m sick… because I’m adjusting to what I’ve gained. It’s a lot of power, a lot of things I have to know, and even more things that I need to keep them all in check. You’re the one thing that they all want.” Gwen looked at him with a new emotion in her eyes, “You’re my-”

“Gwen! Ben! Come on, kids! We’re at the hotel!” Gwen ran from the Rustbucket and outside. Ben stood slowly and looked through his cloths. He found a pair of jeans and black shirt with the Plumber’s ‘code of arms’ on the back. He pulled it on and walked towards the table. He used his foot to scoot his shoes out from under it and slid them on. When Ben looked up from his shoes, he noticed the baby watching him with deep interest.

“Hey, little guy.” the baby held out it’s arms and whimpered slightly, “You can’t be so young that you can’t talk. I admit your not five or six, maybe three at the oldest.” the baby wiggled it’s arms, obviously thinking it would pull Ben closer. Ben smiled sweetly and lifted the baby into his arms, “Hex… I know it’s you, but why aren’t you being… evil?” Hex put his thumb in his mouth and rested his head on Ben’s chest before closing his eyes. Ben knew he was still awake, and that Hex had understood him. Something was wrong with this.

Ben stepped out of the ATV and looked at the old house where they would be staying. Something unsettled him about it. A warm, deep voice spoke to him, ‘Keep yourself ready for a change. If there is even a hint of danger, I’m taking over.’ Ben nodded and wished he was just an Anodite and not a mix of all the aliens, at least then all of this would make more sense. Especially Hex.

Gwen turned to him and looked at the baby, “Oh… did you get him from the front seat?” Ben nodded.

“Yah, he looked kinda scared.” a man walked from the house with Verdona and Max in toe. This man had dark brown hair and crystal blue eyes. His brown hair was slicked back and contained highlights of silver, gray, white, blonde and red as the porch lights reflected them. He didn’t look old, but he did look as though he was older then Ben’s parents.

The man smiled, “I’m Elliot Pendragon, don’t let the name fool you, I’m not part of the Forever Knights. Though my ancestor Uther Pendragon was. It’s a pleasure to meet you all.” Gwen looked at the man curiously and Ben shook his hand. Max put a hand on Elliot’s shoulder, “Elliot and his wife were part of the Plumbers that made treaties and pacts with many different alien species. He knows more about aliens then most aliens do. His youngest daughter, Kieli, knows even more. She’s quite the little scientist. I brought you here so that maybe she could help you.”

The door opened again and a girl stepped out. Her hair was brown and in short, choppy wolf cut that framed her face like wings, her eyes weren’t blue like her fathers, but rather a deep green like Ben’s. she was pretty, but still average for a girl of fifteen or sixteen. She wore black hiking boots and white thigh highs that came to rest an inch short of her black minny skirt. She wore a tan top with a band on it that Ben didn’t recognize, and a black jacket with it’s sleeves pushed up to her elbows and showed that her top had ¾ sleeves. She looked at Ben and Gwen with a curious expression.

“Kieli! Come meet Ben and Gwen Tennyson. Ben is the holder of the Omnitrix.” Kieli looked Ben over before looking her father dead in the eyes.

“Check your facts, Dad. He’s not wearing anything on either wrist.” Elliot looked at Ben’s wrists in surprise before rounding on Max.

“What is the meaning of this!?” Verdona held up a hand.

“Elliot, Ben seems to have merged with the watch and it’s been causing him sicknesses that can’t be explained by normal science.” Kieli walked down from the house and strait towards Ben. She put her hand to his forehead and waited a moment before putting two fingers to his pulse and looking at her watch. She closed her eyes for a moment before looking Ben in the eye with a slight smirk.

“It’s stress. A good nap and some much need TLC and he’ll be back to normal. I bet a message and a hot bath would be okay, maybe a little walk around would help too. I’m sure a small vacation from fighting evil is just was Ben needs.” Ben, catching all of her hints, blushed and looked at Gwen who had also gone slightly red. Kieli smiled at Max and Verdona, “There’s a carnival in town and I’d be happy to take Ben and Gwen if y’all want to catch up?” Elliot smiled and kissed his daughter’s forehead.

Gwen felt a slight pull at her chest as she realized how much she missed her own dad. Elliot gently hugged his daughter and playfully smacked her on the butt, “Show them around, and I don’t want a bit of trouble from you, young lady. Off you go, behave.” Kieli giggled and tried to get away from her dad, who swatted her butt again, “Don’t let me hear you talking like that again. I know what a ‘walk around’ is, young lady. I’m not deaf to the newer expressions out there.” Kieli giggled and grabbed Gwen’s hand.

“Come on, you two. We’ll take the baby with us and let the folks talk about the old days.” Gwen smiled and walked hand in hand with Kieli as Ben walked on her other side. For some reason, this girl was inviting and lovable. She seemed to be aware of this fact as well. When Gwen opened her mouth Kieli spoke.

“I’m part of a race called the Trinity. More correctly, my mother was. They’re shadow like beings, they are highly attractive and can only breed with other aliens, humans included. The Trinity people, also called ghosts, or ghouls, sometimes demons, are able to move through shadows, or use the shadows to attack or help someone. We’re called Trinity because were from a three planet Galaxy. Each planet is the size of your sun and our sun is the size of the three planets together. Vampires is another good name for us. The Trinity were the hardest to convince to join in the treaty that created the Omnitrix. The Trinity are the definition of evil, but looks and power, but they are actually pure and kind hearted.” Ben thought back to all of his aliens, the ones who had all introduced themselves. Not one fit this description.

“So… shouldn’t you be, like, a blob of black?” Kieli smiled and looked back at Ben.

“No. We have the form of whatever alien our parent mated with for our default. We can control our form, but you don’t come into these powers until your ten. For a long time, I thought I was just a normal kid compared to the other Plumber’s kids, but it turned out I wasn’t. Most, no, all of the Plumbers have alien spouses. Even the… to humans, alien Plumbers. Lots of mixing of species, but that’s how you know whose a Plumber and whose not.”

Gwen sighed, “Were we the only ones who didn’t know about the Plumbers?” Kieli smiled sadly.

“Your mothers weren’t told. Besides, Carl and Frank never became Plumbers. They didn’t want that life for their families. They married normal women. Max was more suited to the Plumber life. He was always falling in love with aliens. Verdona and Max met in school, my dad was a mutual friend of them both. I think they met when they were… fourteen. It was love at first sight. Then there was Max’s little fling with Xylene. Uxorites are selfish things, they were the first in line to give DNA for the Omnitrix.”

Ben wrinkled his noise in distaste. Even though Max had stayed with them, Ben held a grate dislike for that woman, “Are they a powerful alien?” Kieli shrugged.

“In the mental category, yes. Physical, well… that depends on their gender. Females are far weaker then males. Most female Uxorites try to find a strong male because they have no physical strength. Males are trained to use their bodies and minds as weapons. With females it’s all mind, no muscle.” Ben and Gwen were entranced. This was a girl there age, and she didn’t keep secrets from them. It was like having their own insight to the Plumbers and their ways.

“So… you’ve always been a Plumber?” Kieli shook her head and smiled at the baby.

“No, just this last year or two. So, whose baby? What’s his name?”

Ben shifted the baby, “We found him lost in the forest. He says Hex, but it’s Hec. That’s what we figured anyway.” Kieli nodded and held out her arms for him. Hex shied away, but not in the cute baby way, but out of real fear. Kieli took her arms away and Gwen swore that, for a second, Kieli was glaring at the baby. Ben must have seen it too, “He’s not really comfortable around other people.” Gwen took Hex and eyed Kieli with slight distrust.

Something was just wrong about all of this.

———————————————————————————

The carnival was roaring with life and laughter as families, friends and lovers wondered around the stalls and the rides. Ben was shocked by the size of the place. It seemed so normal and comfortable, but to Ben it felt like a trap. Gwen looked at Ben and they shared the thought. Kieli smiled at them as she turned around to point something out, “Why don’t we go to the Circus? It’s only here for the next couple of days and I haven’t been there yet!” the sense of foreboding vanished and the two cousin nodded happily. Kieli began to walk towards the big top.

Gwen grabbed Ben’s arm, “Last time we were at a Circus-”

“Gwen, it’s fine. I’ve got more control now then I did then. Besides, those clowns are all locked away. You know that.” Gwen nodded dumbly and rocked Hex, who was now clinging to her. She was starting to think that the babe had nothing to do with anything, that they had saved him rather then walked right into a trap.

Kieli paid there way into the circus and for whatever food they wanted before they took a seat in the middle row of the bleachers. Ben was holding Hex in his lap and Gwen was feeding him small bites of nachos. Ben watched as the baby happily nibbled on the chip Gwen was holding for him. Suddenly the lights went out and the whole tent was dark. Some of the audience screamed and others laughed to hide their own shock. Ben and Gwen tensed.

“Welcome, Ladies and Gentlemen, lend me your ears! I will spin you a story of magic and wonder before your very eyes!” Ben froze… he knew that voice. That cold, bitter voice. Only one person had that voice. The lights came on, but still dim, and in the center ring stood the only alien Ben feared. Ghostfreak was in a human body, but it was still him. The man he was in reminded Ben of the ring masters of old, but this man wore leather pants and a tight leather suit blazer. Under that was a white mesh top. This wasn’t normal.

Ghostfreak clapped his hands and a dark green puff of smoke filled the room. As it faded a woman was slowly reviled. First were the boots, they were whiter then snow and came up the leg so high only ¾ of the thigh was left. This turned into dark purple, underwear like bottoms that had two dark purple spikes of cloth coming from the side. This morphed into a corset like top that was mostly white, but in the center was lavender cloth that covered the stomach. What pulled the corset tight were seven dark purple bands that buckled together to form the firm hold that was part of the corset ways.

The woman herself was a beauty. Her skin was like unpolished copper and her hair, mixes of sliver, white and gray, fell to her waist along with the beads that were weaved to seem as if they were part of her hair. Her eyes were a deep pink, much like Gwen’s magic, and her smile was painted in garnet lipstick.

Ben and Gwen tensed instantly as the name came from them like water from a river, “Charmcaster…”

She smiled and the ‘ring master’ took her hand and began to speak again, “There are creatures on this planet, beautiful and deadly! Be it the witch-” Charmcaster bowed and smiled, “the werewolf-” a wolf the size of a small horse bound forward and lifted Charmcaster onto it’s back, “or death itself!” the ring master took the rose from his jacket and it wilted instantly. People laughed in fight. Ben and Gwen tried to run, but magic held them there. Kieli was suddenly gone and now stood by the ring master. She wore boots now too that covered as much as Charmcaster’s did. Her top was liked a dress with two inches in the center cut out. Her bottoms were like something from a two piece bathing suit. There was a silver band around her head with a dark thing in center. Gwen gasped and touched Ben’s arm.

“That’s one of the Charms of Bezel!” Ben looked at it and barely remembered it, “It’s the Charm of Reincarnation! While it can reawaken consciousness it can also control it with a certain spell that I found in Charmcaster’s book of spells!”

“So…Kieli is being controlled?” Gwen gave him a duh look and a soft, child like voice spoke.

“Mama and Papa have been using her to track you… they want your powers.” Ben looked down at the boy in shock.

“Wait… your not Hex Charmcaster’s uncle?”

“No… Mama killed uncle to gain his power…” Hex looked at Kieli and sniffed before burring his face in Ben’s chest. Ben held the boy tighter and watched as Kieli and Charmcaster juggled knives between each other as a couple of clowns danced between the knives. It was scary to watch Kieli because the knives came strait for her heart and she’d catch them underhand and throw them back at Charmcaster, but the scary came into play with the fact that Kieli waited till the last second to catch the knives.

The audience screamed in delight when Charmcaster slowly began to float up towards the high wire. Ben scanned the audience for anyone else who might be looking at this differently, a man looking for strings, a woman shaking her head in disgust at the apparel, but all he found was a teen aged boy who was looking strait at him. Ben nodded his head to the other and was glad to see it returned. The hard feelings were gone, and this time, Ben needed help.

“Gwen.” she looked at him and shuttered lightly at the smile on his lips and the trouble in his eyes, “Kevin’s here.” Gwen followed Ben’s gaze and found Kevin’s. She nodded faintly, but wasn’t happy to see him like Ben was. Hex was gently set in her lap and Ben was changing his form.

Ben’s body became lizard like. He looked much like Xylene, but where Xylene had been light green he was dark and where she had been dark he was black. His three eyes were jade green and began to glow like the Omnitrix had as he rose into the air. Gwen looked around and found the whole audience was gone, or it had never existed. Kevin was in the ring and standing off with the ‘werewolf’. It was now more human like and reminded Gwen of Felis Catus. That was the Latin name for a house cat. So, and Gwen was guessing, this alien was a Canis Familiaris. Your right. Gwen jumped and looked around. She knew that voice, but why was it in her head? Gwendolyn, I’m an Anodite. This is one of many things you will learn. Gwen felt her chest tighten.

Grandma… how do I help? Verdona smiled, and Gwen felt it.

Close your eyes, little one.
