Heatblast is screaming in the forest.
Heatblast:Aaah! I'm on fire! I'm on fire!
He begins to calm down.
Heatblast:Hey... I'm on fire --and, I'm okay... Check it out. I'm totally hot.
Ben snickers at his own joke.
Ben turns to see a tree behind him that he can practice his new abilities on.
Heatblast:Oh yeah, uh-huh. Here goes!
Slinging his wrist, Ben shoots a fireball out of his hand, blowing a branch off the tree entirely.
Heatblast:That's what I'm talking about.
Between his hands, Ben creates a larger fireball.
Heatblast:'Liking it!...
Ben slings the fireball, unexpectedly through three trees instead of one, causing a fog of smoke around him. Ben's smile drops as he sees the fire created by him spreading to other trees.
Heatblast:Wait! Stop! ... Uh-oh.
Ben runs to the fire, and tries stomping out a flame with his fiery feet, only for it to erupt into a larger one.
Heatblast:Oh man, I am gonna get so busted for this.
Max sitting by a campfire outside the Rust Bucket, as Gwen walks out, seeing the smoke from Ben's escapades in the distance.
Gwen:What's that?
Max Gets up.
Max:Looks like the start of a forest fire. We better let the Rangers' Station know. Probably some darn fool camper out there, messing around with something he shouldn't.
Max pauses, before he and Gwen come to a realization.
Max and Gwen:Ben!
Max quickly opens a camping-kit and grabs two fire-extinguishers, passing one to Gwen.
Max:Better take this!
The two run into the Forest towards the smoke overhead.
Ben is continuing trying to put out the fire, unsuccessfully.
Heatblast:This would be so cool, if it weren't so-- not cool!
Gwen putting out fires by spraying the extinguisher. Up until she shoots it at Heatblast's back, causing him to turn around to look at her.
Gwen Screams.
Heatblast:Look, I know I look weird, but there's no reason to be scared-
Gwen clobbers Heatblast round the head with the extinguisher, knocking him down. When he tries to get up, Gwen sprays him, knocking out the flames surrounding his rock-like head for a brief moment.
Heatblast:Hey! (Coughs.)
Gwen:I don't know what you are- but you'll stay down there if you know what's good for you!
Ben staying down, gestures to Gwen's shoe, setting a small flame on it with a chuckle.
Gwen:Ow! (Hopping on one foot until she extinguishes the small flame.) I warned you! (raising the extinguisher above her head.)
Heatblast:Don't even think about it, freak!
Gwen:...Ben? Is that you? What happened?
Heatblast:Well, when I was walking, this meteor fell from the sky and almost smudged me, except that wasn't a meteor or a satellite, but this cool watch thing that jumped up onto my wrist, and when I tried to get it off, I suddenly was on fire, only it didn't hurt when I was accidentally starting this mega forest fire.
Max Runs up.
Max: Gwen, are you alri- (seeing Heatblast.) What in blazes?
Gwen:Hey, Grandpa, guess who?
Heatblast:It's me, Grandpa!
Max:Ben? What happened to you?
Ben:Well, when I was walking, this meteor...
Gwen:(Cuts Heatblast off.) Erm, excuse me? Major forest fire burning out of control remember?
Heatblast:What do we do?
Max begins Thinking.
Max:Backfire. Start a new fire and let it burn into the old fire. They'll snuff each other out. Think you can do it, Ben?
Heatblast:Shooting flames? I can definitely do.
All three run out. Ben finds trees some distance away, then shoots them with a blast of fire, causing a new blaze.
A Yosemite Park Ranger comes across the burnt out forest.
Up above the Earth, the ship has a damaged bridge, and an incredibly mutilated Vilgax is in a stasis tank.
Next to the tank is a mutilated body of a blue girl.
Thanos:(To Robotic Lieutenant.) What do you mean it's not there? This battle nearly costed my daughter her life and my brother his--And you say the Omnitrix is no longer on board the transport?
Robotic Lieutenant:Sensors indicate a probe was jettisoned from the ship, just before boarding. It landed on the planet below.
Vilgax:(To another nearby bioid behind him.) Go. Bring it to me.
The bioid, enshrouded in darkness, walks off.
The trio eating marshmallows by the fire, Heatblast having just explained to Max.
Max:And you say that this watch "just jumped up and clamped onto your wrist"?
Heatblast Catches a marshmallow that Gwen throws to him and it melts.
Heatblast:Hey, this time it wasn't my fault, (Marshmallow stuck in his mouth.) I swear!
Max:I believe you, Ben.
Gwen:Think he's gonna stay a monster forever?
Max:He's not a monster. He's an alien.
Heatblast and Gwen stare at him like Nigga how you know?
Max:I-I mean, look at him. What else could he be?
Heatblast:Yeah, I don't wanna be 'fire guy' forever. How am I supposed to play Little League this fall if I charcoal the ball every time I catch a pop fly?
Max:Don't worry, Ben. We'll figure this thing out.
The Omnitrix on Heatblast's chest beeps red 5 times, then lets out a blinding light towards Max and Gwen. When they open their eyes, Ben is standing in front of them, human and all.
Ben Looks at himself, elated.
Ben:Hah! I'm me again!
Gwen:Aw, too bad. I liked you better when you were a briquette.
Ben has Gone back to trying to rip off the Omnitrix.
Ben:I still can't get this thing off.
Max:Better not fool with it anymore until we know exactly what we're dealing with. I'll go check out that crash site. You guys stay here until I get back.
A pod shoots from Vilgax's ship above orbit, landing deep in the woods, next to the Omnitrix's pod. Revealing itself as a gigantic Mechadroid and the shadowed one from before, it scans and promptly disintegrates the pod in the crash site, and ejects smaller flying Mechadroids from its shoulders to go find the watch.
SHIELD AGENTS arrive.
Agent 1:You are trespassing on this planet please power or shut down or we will be forced to fire.
The Giant Mechadroid releases a beam of energy that nearly kills Coulson but does kill other agents.
Phil: REQUESTING BACK U-
Phil is sent flying forwards into the woods.
With the hero.
Ben fiddling with the Omnitrix.
Ben:Hmm... I wonder what this does.
Gwen Surprises Ben from behind.
AYYYYYOOOO!!!!!!
Gwen:Caught ya!
She Laughs.
Ben Mimicks Gwen's laugh.
Ben:Very funny. Like your face.
Gwen:Grandpa said not to mess with that thing.
Ben:Yeah? So, what's your point?
Gwen:Did your parents drop you when you were a baby?
Ben is biting at the faceplate.
Ben:Come on. You can't tell me you aren't a little bit curious what else this thing can do?
Gwen Turns her head away.
Gwen:Not in the least.
Ben:You sure you're related to me?
With Max.
Max walks to the crash site and sees the dead bodies of the shield agents and destroyed cars.
He rushes over and checks the pulse of a agent DYED!!!
Phil runs out of the woods and sees max.
Phil:Max?
Max:Phil!
The two hug.
Max:How ya been?
Phil:Not good as you can see.
The two walk over to the crash site.
Phil:what're you doing here?
Max:My Grandson he found this alien watch.
Phil:Max...
Max:Oh yeah please he just found it on accident and no matter what he does he can't get it off.
Phil:let's talk to your grandson after this.
The two observe the crash site.
Max Picks up a piece of metal debris.
Max:I don't like this one little bit.
With the heroes.
Ben:Look. If I can figure this thing out, maybe I can help people. I mean, really help them. Not just, you know, make things worse.
Gwen:So, what did it feel like going all alien like that?
Ben:It freaked me out at first. It was like I was me, but it was also like I was somebody else- (the faceplate springs up like before.) Hey, I think I figured out how I did it. Should I try it again? Just once?
He turns the dial and new silhouettes appear.
Gwen:I wouldn't.
Ben:No duh, you wouldn't.
Ben slams down the dial. This time, he's turned into an orange beast with claws and fur.
Wildmutt. He roars tenaciously.
Gwen Looking at Wildmutt, currently drooling from the mouth.
Gwen:Ew! This thing's even uglier than you are normally! Hah, wow, put a flea collar on this mutt!
Wildmutt Roars.
Gwen:And no eyes? What good is this one? It can't see!
She notices the marshmallow stick in her hand and smiles with an idea in mind.
Gwen silently moves behind Wildmutt, blows on her hands and winds up her stick, getting ready to hit him with it.
Before she does, Wildmutt's "gills" on his neck open up, alerting him like radar. Wildmutt dodges her swing by jumping onto the top of the RV, smiling smugly she falls over.
Gwen:Okay. So maybe it's not a total loser.
Wildmutt jumps back down in front of her, slobbering.
Gwen:Ew, two words: 'breath', 'mints'.
Wildmutt kicks dirt at her and leaps/runs away into the forest.
Gwen:Get back here! Ben! I'm gonna tell Grandpa that you turned into some freaky-animal-monster-thing and went swinging around the forest when he told you not to! (realizing what she just said.) -Oh, this is a majorly weird day.
Wildmutt swings across from tree to tree. He stops on one before sensing one of Vilgax's Mechadroids targeting him, leaping away before it can shoot him. He leaps to other trees, evading the pursuing Mechadroid's lasers.
He's able to sneak out of its sight, leap up behind it, land on top of it, and rip off its laser arm and "head". The Omnitrix starts timing out as the Mechadroid's body is headed straight into the side of a cliff.
Wildmutt leaps off before it crashes and transforms back into Ben. Ben Looks at the crash.
Ben:Yes!
A second Mechadroid arrives, looking down at him.
Ben:Oh, not good...
