Getting to his car was simple . . .Opening the car door with black claw appendages was not. Cursing everything from evolution to the poor making of the car and everything in-between, Xander got the car open by climbing through the sun roof. Xander grumbled as he finally changed back.

Giving a soft sigh Xander climbed into the back seat where he had a sun lamp powered by a car battery. It was hovering over a planters box with ten tiny green pods growing in their own little pots. Smiling Xander pulled a spray bottle out from under one of the seats, it had a sweet smelling green liquid in it. Gently he sprayed the pods.

“Leave on my trip . . . and become a daddy of ten, and I didn’t even get to do the fun sex part. * Sigh * . . . I’m afraid to go on another trip . . . might come back home pregnant or something icky like that. And I can’t believe I’m talking to myself.” Turning the lamp down he smiled as he climbed back into the front seat.

Driving down the highway Xander was going to pull into a hotel when Tri spoke up. ~I thought we were going to return to the Tennyson’s? We are supposed to protect them . . . We also shouldn’t t-travel far from the Omnitrix.~ Said Tri a bit sheepishly at the end of his sentence. Xander frowned. “Why may I ask not? Tri what did you not tell me?”

Xander felt embarrassment and anxiety that wasn’t his bloom. As he drove he gave his wrist a glare, even through it felt kinda stupid to be glaring at his appendage. *sigh* ~ For the next six weeks we need to . . .stay close to the omnitrix. If we don’t the omnitrix and myself will become useless . . . The sharing of data connected us. If we are too far away you and Ben Tennyson will feel . . . uncomfortable.~

Xander pulled his car over and started banging his head against the steering wheel. He could already feel a slight pain starting his hand. He could feel a sensation almost like pain travel up his arm and down his spine. “So I guess I should turn around. So much for going back to Sunnydale and making good use out of you, huh Tri?”

~ I am sorry Alexander. The knowledge of the process is in your head, you just did not search it out yet. Human brains are so different from any other I had interaction with! Did you know you only use ten percent of your brain! It is very fascinating!~ Xander rolled his eyes. Tri sounded like Willow when she found a new spell or learned something new in school.

Turning the car around Xander went in the direction the Tennyson’s went. Looks like his summer trip was going to be extended.

Ben looked at his watch trying to see what could be different about it. Turning the dial he grinned as it landed on a spider-like shape. He looked from his watch then to his cousin Gwen who was playing quietly on her computer. Pulling the dial out his pushed it down and smirked as the change took place with a flash of green light. Only to frown as instead of turning into a spider he changed into a big wolf with horns. He growled. Looking at himself in the reflection of the window Ben gave a wolf-like grin. He had long teeth and long grey red tipped horns. He looked pretty freaky. Slinking out of his seat Ben stalked toward Gwen. With a roar that sounded more lion then wolf he jumped at the distracted girl.

“BEN!!!!!”

BEEP!


BEEP!!


BEEP!

As the red flaring lights went off the large eyed alien sneered, his black eyes narrowed. “My Lord Vilgax . . .”Said the robotic voice of a droid as it turned to the large tentacle faced alien. “The Omnitrix has been activated. Shell we send a regiment out?”

Vilgax hissed but said nothing. He pressed a red button and watched as thirty capsules shoot toward earth. “All his trouble over one human . . . infant!!!”

*********************************************

Xander had just turned into the main highway when a sharp pain shot up his arm. It felt like needles were swimming through his veins. It hurt like all hell!

“Tri . . .Where are the Tennysons?”

Tri bleeped for a second before answering. ~Twenty seven and one half miles ahead of us. We could get there sooner if we . . . transform?~

“Into what Tri? I’m not leaving my car or the seedlings!”

~As Ben Tennyson says, lets Upgrade!~

An image of a large black and white creature formed in the large gem. “What does it do Tri?”

~It makes and piece of technology animated. It upgrades things. It is really um . . .cool?~

“Ok lets do it!”

“Beeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnnnn!!!! Yuck! Your drooling all over my lab top!!” Yelled Gwen as she ran to the front of the RV. Pulling into an inn Grandpa Max frowned at his grandkids. One was covered in blue tinted dog drool the other was a blue tinted dog.

“Ben . . .How many times have I told you to not play around with the watch. Vilgax can find us when it is activated.”

Blast Wolf, that was the name Ben had decided to call this form, made a soft whining noise. His ears were flat on his head, his tails limp at his paws.

“Well at least he can’t talk in his form.”Said Gwen as she wiped her face off. She was just about to say more when the side of the RV was ripped out.
