Damn, that Tennyson, next time I see him will end his life!
An angered Albedo in the body of a ten-year-old Ben Tennyson was currently lashing out.
He then throws a can across the room. He plants his hands into his table that contained plans upon plans. Some were blueprints while others were blank pages. Albedo was hung up. His plan failed in an utter mess.
He ran a hand through his white hair with his right hand. His red eyes catching the device placed at the back of his hand. The Ultimatrix. It was different from the previous one though. This one was on the back of his hand instead of his wrist. It was half the size of the original Ultimatrix.
Albedo looked at the red watch on his hand. He felt stronger than ever even with the ultimates at his disposal but that still wasn't enough. He was glad he got out in time who knows what would happen if he stayed any longer.
"Khyber should be a few sectors away from Earth given that the Plumbers cased him across four different plants," He told himself as he looked over the plans he had thought of since his hiding. "Vilgax was taking in after the whole fiasco on Galvan Prime so that leave's me with nothing." He threw his hands in the air at the sudden.
"I could get Tennyson's parents and have them be used as a hostage? That way I'll take his Omnitrix and kill him! No, no, no, Albedo even if it works, Tennyson will have backup and me being alone won't cut it." He then thought about what he can do.
Ever since getting the Ultimatrix back be hadn't thought about what he'll do.
Was revenge all he can think about?
Of course, it is! They humiliated him and made him a disgusting human being that wants nothing but chill fries!
He fell back on a nearby chair and stared at the ceiling. He has aliens he can turn into to do the damage, so why didn't he. Maybe cause of all the times he failed and look where that got him.
"Maybe if I wait a few years and stalk him then I'll get my revenge," He stated as he then thought of Azmuth. His former mentor, the one he helped build the Omnitrix in the first place. He was the one who did this.
The Galvan/human sighed. He was bored as the humans say and that was surprising considering he's the smartest in the Universe. Screw, Azmuth he was no first thinker to him.
As he was about to close his eyes a note appeared on his face.
"The f@#k!" He yelled out as he took the note off his face and read it. It seemed to be some kind of invitation telling him to meet this person.
The location was in Undertown near the shopping district. It had given him a time to also arrive and told him not to be late.
"Who in their right minds would invite a superior being?" He asked himself and saw the end of the note having circles and crosses next to someone's handwriting. He didn't know who it was but he had a weird feeling to go there. If he didn't go then he'll be bored as hell.
He got himself ready putting his shoes on. He looked at the place again then a flash of red light engulfed him as it was replaced by a Kineceleran. His eyes red, his tail black with grey stripes as the ultimatrix symbol was on his chest. He puts in his visor and sped his way to the location.
Running from his hiding place to Undertown was mere child's play for Albedo. He arrived at the alien town at record-breaking speed and made his way to the location. When he stopped and saw the place he paled when seeing it.
It was a dinner of some sorts and it looked like it was still open. Maybe a 24-hour diner? He didn't care. In another flash of red Albedo turned human again. He had a cloak in hand as well to conceal his identity to not alert the Plumbers. He puts it on and made his way inside. When he gets in he see that the place wasn't all that busy. He scoffed and went to take a seat near the corner away from the eyes looking at the boy. He sat down and waited. The waiter placed a menu on his table and walked away.
It didn't take long before Albedo got bored again as he then came up with few ideas he can pull off on Tennyson. The first is to try and put his parents in the hospital and then go for his girlfriend, you know that one girl that wanted him as a pet.
An hour passed as Albedo wanted to leave but someone came walking over to him. The person has long black hair, dark blue eyes wear a purple shirt with a cat symbol on their chest, a black mini-skirt, and black leather boots.
Wait? It was a female... wait! It's Tennyson! He quickly got from his seat and transformed into Negative XLR8 and sped up to Tennyson. He then went to deliver a barrage of kicks but a dark purple barrier appeared and quickly surrounds them.
"Oh, I didn't think my appearance would startle you so much," She began looking at Albedo as he tried to get out. He then reverted to human form and cursed himself for getting caught so easily. He's getting sloppy.
"Dammit!" He punched the barrier as 'Gwen' then looked around seeing the aliens shocked at Albedo transforming and she even heard someone calling the Plumbers. "Let's go somewhere private to have our talk." She then snapped her fingers and the two of them disappeared in a flash of purple.
The two appeared in a small living room. A couch against the wall, a TV across it, a table in the center. The kitchen can be seen in the far off corner. 'Gwen' sat down on the couch while Albedo was still in the barrier not knowing where he is.
"Where are we, Tennyson?!" He asked out loud anger at being caught. "Oh, relax will you. I'm not Gwendy alright," She told him and that raised an eyebrow from the white-haired boy who looks closely at her. Know that he has a better look at her, he can see that she isn't Gwendolyn Tennyson then who was she?
Albedo calms down as the black haired teen then released her barrier on him, freeing him.
"So, if you're not Gwendolyn then who are you?" He asked crossing his arms trying to be intimidated by a person stuck in a ten-year-old body.
"I'm Sunny Tennyson, Ben and Gwendy's cousin," She introduced herself to Albedo who widens his eyes.
Another Tennyson?! Goddammit! Just his f@#king luck!
He moved his left hand towards the Ultimatrix. Sunny seeing this used her powers and summoned purple tendrils stopping his movement.
"Relax, Albedo I'm not like them and I'll help you out," She then turned to the Ultimatrix as her eyes glowed dark purple. The watch glowed a faint purple as it was dismantled into pieces then resembled it. She let go of Albedo as the former Galvan looked at his hand.
It started beeping rapidly as a flash surrounded his body and changed. When it died down Albedo was now wearing his usual red jacket, black shirt, dark brown cargo. His white hair was longer than Ben's as it reached his neck and just above his eyes and ears.
He looked at himself and is amazed at what had happened now.
"How did you-"
"I used my magic to restore your watch by tinkering with some parts of it," Sunny explained, and Albedo looked bewildered at her.
"You used magic? How? Only science can fix this... how can some magic fix a watch of science?"
"Don't ask questions to answers you won't believe nor understand," She said with a smirk. "Why did you help me? Or better yet why did you bring me here?" He asked concerned.
Sunny thought for a moment as she looked at Albedo from head to toe. She took in his attire and appearance. His eyes, white hair, and even his build. Albedo saw how Sunny was looking at him and raised his brow in confusion.
"Is there something on my face, Anodite?" He asked not using her name or simply just forgetting who she was. She snapped out of her thoughts and looked at him.
"What? No, there's nothing I was just thinking about something," She said and looked away shyly. The Galvan didn't know what was going in but now that he had his original 'body' back he wanted to plan his next attack as fast as possible wanting his revenge so badly.
He then placed his hand on his chin and thought of something.
'Maybe I can use this Anodite to my advantage? Yes, that's it!' He began plotting a way to use Sunny for his gains.
"Anyway, now that we got your original form back why not tell me something about yourself," She suggested in which he obliged by taking a seat across her.
"Very well, Anodite. I am Albedo the greatest mind to ever walk this Galaxy and the sole First Thinker of Galvan Prime. My hatred for both Ben and Azmuth is beyond what you can fathom with your minds. I like chili fries cause of this human meat bag! I want to end them for ruining my life!"
Sunny just started at him her expression was that of shock and worried. It almost sounded like an obsession.
Albedo then calmed himself down and looked at her. "Ahem, now it is your turn for interdiction, Anodite," He said gesturing his hand towards her.
"I'm Sunny Tennyson, Ben, and Gwen's cousin. I originally came from Anodyne but my parents banished me to this planet a year ago. Fought Gwenny a little bit. My ex-boyfriend Antonio tried to save me which he kinda did but I left him after a few weeks cause all he can think about is his muscles. Oh and I'm not like Gwen," She raises her left hand and purple energy surrounds it.
"I am much more powerful than her," She said in a low dark voice. The energy then died down and she got up and moved to the kitchen but before she could she turned to him.
"Anything to drink or eat?" She asked and was quickly met with a 'yes' faster than she can say anything.
"Chilli fries and a smoothie at the instant. I've been craving them for some time now," He looked at his hands as he said that. A bit twisted but she nodded her head.
"Chilli fries?" She muttered to herself and snapped her fingers. Instantly a bag of chili fries appeared in one hand and a smoothie in the other. She smirked yet again. "Is this what you want?" She asked a d showed it to him.
Albedo couldn't contain himself. His body wanting chili fries more than anything. He moved closer to Sunny as she held them in place. But she moved them away the second he was near them.
"Hey! Give me chili fries!" He yelled out and then ran at her in which she then teleported away and appeared on the other side of the room. Albedo wanting his fries activated the Ultimatrix but before he could transform he heard her say something.
"Wait! Don't you even think about transforming in here of all places?" That's what she said and it sounded like a treat.
"Oh," He then moved his hand away from the Ultimatrix and stood upright. "Are you threatening me, Anodite? Cause if you are then you've got yourself an enemy of the Great Albedo." His eyes narrowed at the chill fries as he can practically feel it's taste in his mouth.
Sunny saw this held the bag of fries before he. "You want this?" He nodded his head without a second thought. "Then you'll be a good boy and stay calm. I'm not gonna harm you remember, I fixed your watch so you owe me one, two if I hand over the fries." He didn't like the sound of that. He didn't want to be in someone's debt but for the sake of chili fries he'll stand down.
"Alright you win, Anodite. I surrender," He said a hint of irritation in his voice. "Good, catch!" She then threw the bag of fries at him. He caught it and started to devour the fries like there's no tomorrow, disgusting Sunny as she looked on.
"Ew, gross. Never. Do. That. Again," She told him. He looked at her with his chili filled face as he gulps down the last fries. He laughs sheepishly when looking at her. "Hehe, sorry." He apologetically lifts his shoulders.
"Whatever, now that we got our introduction out of the way and the two of us have eaten how about having some fun to pass the time," She suggested the idea, and Albedo looked at her in confusion. He narrowed his eyes at the young girl. He shook his head.
"Fat chance, Anodite. I'm not here to make friends. I'm only here to pay back Tennyson tenfold," He told her a bit of annoyance in his voice.
"Oh, then why did you wait for me at the diner? Was the Great Albedo bored or something." Dammit, she had him. Maybe if he didn't accept the invitation he would have went off and killed Tennyson.
He then looked at the bags of Chilli fires and sighs. It was all gone. He cleaned his face and made his way to Sunny.
"I thank you for the food but I'm not done playing games now so if you'll excuse me I have some planning to do," He then made his way to the door all ready to leave but a purple barrier was then placed in front of him. "Again? You are persistent, aren't you?" He looked back at her who had a smirk on her black lips.
She then thought of what Albedo said placing a finger on her chin. "Mhm, I take after my mother and Grandmother. They are truly the persistent ones," She said then placing her right leg over her left. "But, I want us to do something, you know."
He didn't have time for this. But if it will let him be in peace again then it's settled. He turned to her fully and crossed his arms once again with an unimpressed expression.
"Alright, what do you suppose we do together? I can already think of a billion stuff we can do already," He said and this caught her off guard. Was he flirting with her? No, no, Galvan can't flirt.
"L-let's paint the town red while the nights still young."
"The what?"
She looks at him with a shrug and stood up, dispelling the barrier in the process. She then grabbed his hand and dragged him outside her apartment.
"H-Hey! Unhand me, woman this instance!" He yelled out being dragged.
"Quiet, Albedo this is what we're gonna do, okay," She said as they made their way completely outside.
It was dark, the stars were shining brightly. The road was calm and the street light was on. This was the first time Albedo was out at night not going to someone's house to kill them.
He turned to Sunny who was still holding his hand. He didn't like how touching humans were even that vile Vilgax would agree with him.
"Would you mind letting go of my hand, Anodite right this instant?" He asked irritated. Sunny looked at the white-haired teen and saw that she was still holding his hand. She quickly lets go and looks away. "Thank you."
The two stood there for a while now without saying a word to Albedo took it upon himself to break the silence.
"Where are we going, Anodite?" He asked in which she snapped out of her thoughts quickly. She had a plan in mind where to go but will he go with her?
"I was thinking we can go and watch a movie at the theater?" She said playing with her fingers a bit and looking away.
"Watching a movie? That sounds utterly ridiculous! How in the living f@#k is that supposed to do be fun?! I thought we were robbing a store or something but this... this is just idiotic," He whispered the last part to himself and stared at Sunny.
This human meat bag thinks she can play with me, huh?! We'll just have to see about that.
Sunny scoffs at his point. "There's nothing wrong about going out and watching a movie once and a while, okay and you," She points a finger at him. "You're so hell-bent on revenge that you don't have a life of your own. You're a wanted criminal for goodness sake!"
'Why does it sound like she cares for me?' Albedo asked himself. "So what, Anodite. I had a life after the first Ultimatrix was in Tennyson's possession and yet he still ruined it. After all those months of planning, he gave me a set major setback and I can't forgive him. I can never have a peaceful life even if I wanted one," He whispered the last bit to himself not wanting to reveal something he wanted all along.
"You can still have a life but you have to put in the work to do so," She said and placed a hand on her chest. "Look at me, Gwen and I look the same so I changed my look. We have the same powers and yet she still bested me but I didn't let that ruin my life," Albedo started at her for a minute.
They weren't far apart, to begin with. Granted Albedo is trapped as a human while Sunny can shed her skin to reveal her true form. Both have problems that have to be faced. Sunny with her parents and banishment, Albedo with his obsession with Galvan Prime and Azmuth. Looking at those things side by side both of them were gone from their homeworlds by some they once looked up to.
Where Sunny lived her life the way she wanted and not letting someone else decide that. Albedo was set on revenge and proving that he was better than Azmuth and that he chose wrong. He looked back at what he did with those three aliens. How he gave them a place to stay, eat, and sleep all to get his original form back.
He looked down at his hands again. That time he didn't mind being in this human body but his mind yearning for his Galvan one. He was sure to get it back but thanks to Ben Tennyson it didn't happen.
He then looked back at everything that happened. Vilgax, Khyber, Azmuth all of whom either left him or betrayed him. He looked at Sunny and saw that she was running her arm carelessly. Her head swung down as she looked at the concrete floor.
He sighed. He didn't want to do this but was maybe a start to a peaceful life.
"H-How about we can go and check that movie out," He nervously said rubbing his cheek. She looked at him surprised but gave a small smile.
"Alright, let's go!" She said cheerfully which caught him by surprise. Sunny then used her powers surrounding the two. Albedo didn't move and just waited for whatever to happen, happen. She then clapped her hands together as the two disappeared in a flash of purple.
On the other side of Bellwood at the movie theater, the pair arrive across it.
"Aanndd... we're here!" She said excitingly. Albedo not so much. He just wanted this to be over and done with.
"Great, now let's go and watch it," He said enthusiastically and made his way to the theater.
"Hold it!" He heard Sunny said and turned to her. "What now?" He asked annoyed at the girl stopping him. She then snapped her fingers again and instantly a long sleeve red-black trench coat appeared out of thin air.
"Wear this," She said throwing it to him and he caught it. He raised his brow and points to his jacket. "Leave it behind or throw it away you need a new look, right? And besides it with this you can hide your face with the hoodie attached to it," She told him. Albedo then took off his jacket and gave it to Sunny who teleported it away in an instant.
Albedo then puts on the trench coat and places the hoodie over his head covering most of his white hair bit his red eyes would give it away. Doesn't matter Sunny's got it covered.
"You look great," She said smiling. Albedo only rolls his eyes at her. "Don't flatter yourself, Anodite. Now let's go in already."
The two then made their way to the theater and got in. How it happens nobody saw Albedo one of the Plumbers Greatest threat and Ben's evil twin not get spotted? Simple Sunny placed a spell on him to conceal his eyes. They were the same color as hers and she thinks he's rocking it.
They made their way into Theater Six and sat in the first row where nobody would see them. Sunny had a box of popcorn and a soda with her while Albedo didn't. It's funny cause when he saw them leave he didn't see that she had taken money with her but that's what her powers are for.
"Can't believe I'm about to endure one of Earth's horrific theatrical releases," He grumbled in a low voice but Sunny hear him and smiled to herself.
The movie they were watching was an action-packed one. One with blood, violence, swearing, and all the PG18 stuff a kid can't watch. Halfway into the movie Albedo only realized what this movie truly was and it didn't excite him one bit. But Sunny on the other hand was intrigued by it. Almost like she wanted to watch it for a long time even. He only sighed and watched on.
'Can this night get any more horrible!' Right on cue, something jumped out onto the screen making everyone present jumped up in fright. Albedo didn't even react to this. He saw way worse when working with Vilgax and Khyber. He felt a hand touch his and saw it was Sunny's. She was shaking a bit.
'Why was she scared of this fictional being as she, herself is an energy being. This movie isn't all that great,' He boredly told himself as for the rest of the movie Sunny's hand never left his.
When it was done Albedo thanked the gods for having to come to an end. The two made their way outside with Albedo covering his head while Sunny was talking about the movie. He listened but only halfheartedly. The movie wasn't for him of all people.
"...and then near the end where the guys finally found what they were searching for the movie ends! It's so frustrating when it leaves you on a cliff hanger..." She was talking so much she didn't notice Albedo stopped walking who was looking at a store window.
He was looking at the window or more importantly himself. He didn't know why he was doing this but he felt out of place when watching that movie. His red eyes saddened at the thought of actually dying alone or being forgotten.
Maybe he was hell bend on revenge after all. Maybe he should try something new but what would it be.
Sunny then realized that the white haired teen wasn't there and quickly looked back seeing him starting at the window. She made her way there and saw the look in his eyes.
"You know you can talk to me if someone is wrong, right," She stated catching his attention. He turned to her as she, herself was now looking at the window. "I mean... I'm not one for emotional drama but I'm here if you want to talk," She smile softly at what she said. Even she was impressed at what she said.
Albedo took this time and thought it over for bit. He shook his head sighing. "I'm fine, Sunny. It does not bother me in the slightest, my mind was just a bit foggy for a moment there," He turned to her as she did the same. Their eyes locked for a moment. "Thank you for trying to help me," He thanked her giving her a warm smile.
Her cheeks then gave out a pink tint. She shyly played with her fingers. She stumbled over her words as she didn't know what to say.
"Ah, no problem, Albedo," She said shyly and looked down. She honestly didn't know what to say but the way she felt was something different from her previous lover.
"It was really nothing Albedo, I-"
"Really, Rook? Didn't you enjoy that movie?" A familiar voice asked one both evil counterparts knew too well.
"I am sorry, Ben, but that movie had too much violence and blood in it for my liking," His partner Rook Blonko stated. "I do not understand how humans can enough such violence."
They were making their way towards the duo. It was the perfect opportunity to strike. Albedo moved his hand to the Ultimatrix to activated it but a hand stop it his. He looked and saw Sunny's hand over his. Her eyes held that of worried and sadness. She didn't want him do anything stupid.
"Follow my lead," She said and quickly pulled him towards her. Her body flung into the window store as her hands were around his neck. His hoodie was still covering his hair as she made sure that his eyes were focusing on her.
Albedo didn't know what was going on, he just went with it. There faces were inches close to one another. Their breathing mixed as both Ben and Rook walked passed them.
To the duo it seemed like a couple were making out but to them it was their hiding spot.
"I really need a girlfriend, Rook," Ben stated when looking at the 'couple'. He really didn't have a strong relationship and each one would end up wrong.
"I do not see why you cannot find a suitable mate? You have already been with six girls, have you not?" He questioned the alien shape shifter who responded with a groan and continued on word.
Back with Sunny and Albedo. As the two were still inches close from each other's face. Sunny's face was bright red with pink tint on her cheeks while Albedo had a some what embarrassed look on his. The two pulled back after making sure they were gone.
Both were embarrassed to say the least but Albedo didn't know what this feeling is. And only shrugged it off while shaking his head.
"Uhm, I better get going. It was fun hanging out with you, Albedo. Hope we can do this again, sometime," She then quickly snapped her fingers and disappeared in a flash of purple leaving the white haired teen all alone in the streets.
"Yeah, thanks, Sunny," He let out a small smile along with a sigh. What was that he wondered? Why'd his heart beat so fast anyway? And why did it feel like he wanted to see her again?
For all he knew this could be an Earth disease or something. But he didn't pay mind as he transform in a flash of red turning into Negative XLR8 and made his way to his hideout after a long day.
Sunny appeared in her room and fell on he bed. She was busy rubbing her head in anger. How could she do that? She then snapped her fingers again and out came Albedo's old jacket. She held it tightly as she remembered his embrace.
Both evil twins smiled at remembering one another as the sun rised up for a new day.
