(Somewhere outside of Bellwood, the Forever Knights were holding a meeting at their castle.)
???: "The Forever Knights have existed for a thousand years for a single goal."
(the new Forever King, Patrick, said as one of the top knights, Connor walked up and knelt before him.)
Patrick: "Tonight, we stand on the brink of triumph!"
(He rose his fist into the air, prompting all of the assembled knights to cheer upwards.)
Patrick: "It all must fall on you. Are you ready, Connor?"
Connor: "I am."
Patrick: "Throughout our history, we have bought, borrowed or stolen the most powerful weapons available, on Earth and beyond. But thus far, none has worked."
(The knights walked out with a large cannon for Connor to take with him on his mission.)
Patrick: "This one, we believe, is different."
(Connor accepted the weapon from his superior as Patrick's squire walked up and placed a helmet into his hands.)
Patrick: "You're the bravest of us all, Connor. You have earned the right to wield this."
(The Knights pulled down the cranks to the door, opening it up as Connor placed the helmet on his head and pointed the cannon upwards.)
Patrick: "Aim for the heart and hold the beam steady."
Connor: "I'll hold it steady, but how can I expect the same of the beast?"
Patrick: "It's chained, don't worry."
(Connor nodded and stepped through the door as it closed behind him, enveloping him in darkness before the cannon lit up in energy as he glared forwards and moved down the staircase through the darkened hallways in the castle's dungeon.)
(He looked downwards to see broken chain links thanks to his cannon's light.)
(He looked forwards to see the rest of the chain retreating into the shadows.)
(He looked forwards to see two glowing golden eyes before a large green claw smashed into him, sending his helmet skittering across the stone floor before it was flattened.)
(Connor looked on in horror as the large reptilian creature, who had apparently broken free of its chains flew forwards out of the dungeon before smashing into the large metal doors, trying to break them open as the Forever Knights looked on in shock before trying to barricade the door.)
(Connor walked forwards and aimed the weapon carefully at the large draconic creature.)
(Unfortunately or fortunately depending on your point of view, the creature took notice of him and dodged to the right, causing the energy beam to blast through the door before he looked forwards and broke the doors down.)
(The squire ran forwards and tackled Patrick out of the way of the falling doors as the dragon ran forwards and smashed through the stained-glass window before flying off into the knight, leaving all of the Knights stunned.)
Connor: "I will destroy you."
(Connor said, staring after the dragon as it flew away.)
Connor: "Whatever the sacrifice, whatever the cost, I will destroy you."
(At the Levin's apartment, Ben shouted out as he used the punching bag in Allison's gym as Jen sparred hand-to-hand with Allison while Becky held the punching bag.)
Allison: "Is that all you got?!"
(Allison shouted as Jen shouted out and punched rapidly forwards, only for the Osmosian to catch every one of her punches with lightning speed, her hair soaking wet with sweat and clumping together in front of her face as she smiled and swept Alliosn's legs out from under her and she fell down onto the mat, impressed.)
Allison: "Nice one."
Jen: "Thank you."
(Gwen smiled as she held the bag as Jen moved over to her and they both practiced, blasting out mana blasts to each other before dodging and creating a force field to block the other's blasts before Jen shouted out and smiled before slamming the ground, sending a mana wave forwards that Gwen leaped over and she sent a mana fist forwards to sent her cousin into the wall.)
(Jen groaned as she smiled and got to her feet.)
Becky: "Why are you guys doing this?"
(Becky asked as Ben punched forwards on the punching bag.)
Becky: "Don't you have the powers of all the creatures of the universe on your wrists?"
Jen: "Don't get us wrong, Becky. We love the Omnitrixes."
(Jen said.)
Jen: "But there are going to be times when they aren't enough."
Ben: "If we're going to be great superheroes like the L-Crew or the Miraculous Team, we've got to expand our repertoire."
(Ben said as he delivered a jump kick to the bag.)
Gwen: "Your repertoire?"
(Gwen asked.)
Ben: "Yeah."
(Ben said.)
Ben: "That's savate. And this is karate!"
(He then did tons of karate thrusts to the bag as it moved forwards and Jen smiled.)
Becky: "I know, Ben. I taught it to you."
(Becky said.)
Becky: "Gwen and I taught you and Jen everything you know about martial arts."
Jen: "Yeah, well those weekly training sessions with Grandma Verdona are really paying off."
(Jen said, cracking her joints and then felt at her biceps, impressed to see how she was coming along.)
Jen: "Not bad."
Allison: "Take it from someone who fights for a living."
(Allison said, leaning back and pointing to her muscles before pointing to her head.)
Allison: "Fighting's not about this. It's about this."
Ben: "Good idea."
(Ben said.)
Ben: "Headbutt!"
(That was when Gwen stopped him and held him up in the air with her telekinesis, leaving him shouting and flailing in the air as Jen sighed.)
Gwen: "That's not what she meant. She meant the other way."
(Gwen said.)
Ben: "What other way?"
(Ben asked.)
Becky: "Tell me you're kidding."
(Becky said.)
Kevin: "Okay, guys. Fun's over."
(Kevin said as he walked down to the basement.)
Kevin: "I just set up a meeting with the twins."
Jen: "With who?"
(Jen asked.)
Kevin: "It's important, guys. Come on."
(He grabbed the twins arms before Allison stopped him.)
Allison: "With who, Kevin?"
Kevin: "Uh... the Forever Knights."
Becky: "No way!"
(Becky shouted.)
Ben: "Are you crazy, dude?!"
(Ben shouted.)
Kevin: "Hold it, hold it."
(Kevin said.)
Kevin: "They're in trouble. They need help."
Jen: "Help?! Why?"
(Jen asked.)
Jen: "What have they ever done for us except try to steal our Omnitrixes or try to take over the world?!'
Kevin: "Right. And that means they wouldn't be reaching out to us unless they had a really good reason. Aren't you a little curious to find out what?"
Gwen: "Wait a minute."
(Gwen said.)
Gwen: "They paid you to come here and take the twins to them, didn't they?"
Kevin: "Oh! That hurts. Haven't you ever thought I do anything out of the goodness of my heart?"
Allison: "How much, Kevin?"
(Allison asked, sternly.)
Kevin: "I cut 'em a deal. Traded them for some alien tech."
(Kevin admitted.)
Becky: "Kevin!"
(Becky scolded, crossing her arms.)
Ben: "He's got a point, though, girls."
(Ben said.)
Ben: "If the Knights are desperate enough to ask us for help, we should at least hear what they have to say."
Jen: "I guess you're right, bro."
(Jen said.)
Jen: "But I'm sure that this is going to bite us in the butt in the end."
