(Kevin tried pounding the door down with his brute strength as the others all teleported back into the room.)
Upgrade: "Need a hand? Or six?"
(Upgrade asked as he shot out four tendrils from his sides, which he pulugged into the door's console, which opened it and revealed the room with the escape pods.)
Jen: "Okay, everybody. Take the escape pods back to your home planets."
(Jen ordered as the gladiators all complied and ran to the escape pods before they all shot out of the Megacruiser.)
(Technorg, however, hesitated.)
Upgrade: "You too!"
(Upgrade said as he turned to him.)
Technorg: "No!"
(Technorg said.)
Technorg: "My life belongs to you two."
Jen: "And now we're giving it back!"
(Jen said as she fired an energy beam at him, knocking him into the escape pod.)
Jen: "Sorry, but it's for your own good. Man, I sound like my parents right now."
(Ben's Omnitrix started beeping down and he de-merged with Silx before turning back to human.)
Ben: "Oh man, not yet!"
(Slix then picked up the twins in his arms and glared angrily.)
Slix: "You little human meat bag! Nobody controls Slix Vigma! Nobody!"
Kevin: "Hey! Get your hands off my friends, gearhead!"
(Suddenly, Kevin's arm morphed into a blade burst through Slix's chest and destroyed him as he tossed him aside.)
Jen: "Kevin?"
(Jen asked.)
Ben: "You saved our lives?"
(Ben asked.)
Kevin: "Sure. Why do you think I wasted my time helping you three save all these other losers? I just wanted the pleasure of waxing you myself."
(The three gulped as they turned and ran away before Kevin slimed them to the wall, leaving them stuck.)
Kevin: "And your little lapdog Technorg isn't here to save you this time!"
Allison: "Guys, do something!"
(Allison said as the twins struggled with their watches.)
Jen: "I'm trying!"
(Jen shouted as she struggled to get her hands free to dial the watch in.)
Kevin: "Oh, and Ben, thanks for the tip on combining my powers!"
(Kevin morphed his Diamondhead arm into a blade, which he was about to use to slice Ben's throat open as the twins ripped their arms free and dialed their Omnitrixes in.)
Ben: "Come on please work!"
(Ben shouted to the still-recharging Omnitrix.)
Ben: "Just this once?"
Kevin: "Don't bother trying to dial in another alien. I know all your powers inside and out!"
(Kevin reared his blade back and was about to stab Ben before the core popped up.)
(Ben gasped before slamming his watch against the wall and transforming, causing Kevin's blade to be blocked by a yellow armored plate as Kevin and Allison looked shocked.)
Cannonbolt: "Oh yeah? Well I don't think you've been introduced to Cannonbolt!"
(He then rolled up into a ball and slammed against the mutant vigilante as Jen freed herself using her energy powers and Allison absorbed the metal from the wall and sliced the slime open with her blade hand as Cannonbolt bounced all around the room in his ball form, not letting Kevin hit him even once.)
Kevin: "Hold still so I can hit you, creep!"
(Kevin shouted.)
Cannonbolt. "Don't you get it? It's called dodgeball!"
(Cannonbolt shouted as he finally struck Kevin down and he slumped against the wall.)
Jen: "Let's bail!"
(Jen shouted as she and Allison ran into the final escape pod door as Cannonbolt rolled into it before they all looked confused at the controls.)
Allison: "How do you work this thing!?"
(Allison shouted before they all looked to see Kevin prying open the door with his brute strength.)
Jen: "We're doomed!"
(Jen shouted as she ran and hugged her brother.)
(Suddenly, an orange hand reached through and tossed Kevin back.)
Cannonbolt: "Technorg!"
(Cannonbolt realized as the doors opened.)
Jen: "We thought you escaped!" Jen said.
Technorg: "I told you two, my life belongs to you."
(He then closed the door again as the others looked on gratefully.)
Cannonbolt: "Looks like we're even."
(Cannonbolt said as Technorg pressed the button on the pod.)
Allison: "Goodbye, brother."
(Allison said with no remorse in her voice as the pod shot out from the Megacruiser and back down to Earth.)
Technorg: "So, I'm a lapdog, am I?"
(Technorg asked as he cracked his knuckle against his mace as Kevin gulped in fear as the Megacruiser hyperjumped to the next galaxy.)
(The escape pod touched down in the exact same windmill farm that Kevin attacked in.)
(The door opened and our heroes stumbled out dazed.)
Allison: "Remind me never to watch Gladiator for the next few weeks after that."
(Allison said as the twins nodded at her.)
Max: "Ben, Jen, Allison."
(Max said as he saw them in the grass.)
Max: "Are you alright? We've been looking all over for you three. Where have you been?"
Ben: "Long story."
(Ben said.)
Ben: "But I'm pretty sure you're not going to believe us."
Max: "Try me."
(Max said with a smile.)
Jen: "Are you okay, cuz?"
(Jen asked as Gwen shrugged.)
Gwen: "I'll live. But what happened to Kevin?"
Jen: "Oh, I wouldn't worry about him."
(Jen said with a smile.)
Jen: "He found somebody new to play with."
Ben: "Are you going to miss him?"
(Ben asked Allison as she sighed.)
(Allison sighed as she sat down on the destroyed windmill next to her friend.)
Allison: "Yeah. Of course I am. He may have gone completely insane, but he's still my brother. Nothing is ever going to change that. Ever since our dad died, I swore it upon myself that I would protect him with my life. He's the only family I have left. If he dies up there, then I don't know where that leaves me."
Ben: "Hey."
(Ben said as he sat down next to her as she slumped down in her seat.)
Ben: "Don't worry. He's a tough one. He'll be back one day. I just know he will."
Allison: "Thanks for trying to make me feel better, Ben."
(Allison said.)
Allison: "I didn't really mean what I said to him up there, I really didn't. Of course I love him, but I don't love what he's become."
Jen: "Hey, you still have us to hang out with for the time being."
(Jen said as she playfully gave Allison a noogie, which caused her to stop and laugh as Max and Gwen watched the two girls playfully laughing.)
