Chapter 89 - Chapter 89: Defeating Ghostfreak

(The Circus Freaks entered the kitchen in pursuit of the others as Acid Breath glared.)

Acid Breath: "Split up. Find them!"

(They split up as Thumbskull went into the refrigerator and started snacking on the next day's lunch.)

(Max and Gwen then took advantage of this and made a break for it.)

(Allison stood by and absorbed the stainless steel from one of the tables as she noticed Thumbskull shut the fridge to see Max's reflection in the glass.)

(He then glared out as he chased Max through the kitchen before he opened a door, only to find it led to the pantry- a dead end!)

(Thumbskull charged towards him only for him to be smacked aside by Allison as she got him into a headlock and punched him in the back before tossing him into the pantry and closed the door before she bent the door out of shape with a glare.)

(Gwen nervously looked as she saw Acid Breath walk by her as she crouched down nervously, but he wasn't fooled and tossed the shelf away with a smirk.)

Acid Breath: "It's just you and me, precious."

(Gwen then took notice of the fire extinguisher next to her and smirked.)

Gwen: "Bring it on, Stink Breath!"

(Acid Breath inhaled, which prompted Gwen to take her chance and she fired the foam into his mouth before ducking behind him and smashed his head with a frying pan, knocking him out.)

(Frightwig then leaped up onto the stove and smacked Gwen aside with a sideways kick to the wall before she wrapped her up with her dreadlocks.)

(That was when her grandfather suddenly came up to her and plopped a large grease container on her, causing her to slip up from the grease that hit the ground as Allison came running up and gave a kick out to the circus freak as she slumped against the wall as she brushed herself off before dissolving her armor.)

(The girls looked up as Max gave a thumbs up as Allison sighed.)

Allison: "I've always hated the circus."

(Allison said as she went back to her phone.)

Gwen: "That's expected coming from a goth."

(Gwen said with a sigh.)

Allison: "Hey, I may be a goth, but I'm not that big of a goth."

(Allison said.)

Allison: "I can be cheerful. You've seen it, Gwen!"

(Ghostfreak wandered through the rafters of the room the twins escaped into as they nervously hid from his view with a glance as Grey Matter started sweating until they heard the Omnitrix symbols beeping down.)

Ben: "Oh man! Not now!"

(Ben shouted as the watches timed out, catching Ghostfreak's attention.)

(He dove after them as Jen gasped out and dove away from the rafters before she landed on the opposite rafter before she lost her grip and fell downwards before she quickly created an energy platform beneath her feet as Ben jumped away as she grabbed his hand and ran down, creating energy platforms beneath her feet as she hit the ground as she groaned.)

Ben: "You okay?"

(Ben asked.)

Jen: "Yes."

(Jen said.)

Jen: "It's just that I can't use too much energy at once or I pass out."

(Ghostfreak chased after them, prompting them to run away as Ben crashed into a tool cart.)

Jen: "Ben!"

(Jen shouted, concerned as Ben recovered, not harmed at all thanks to his Omni Suit, as he picked up a mallet and swung it at Ghostfreak, only for him to phase through it with a glare.)

(That was when the Ectonurite grabbed Ben with the tendrils coming out of his chest and tossed him away towards the metal support beams.)

Ghostfreak: "Think about it, Ben!"

(Ghostfreak shouted, floating up to him.)

Ghostfreak: "With the power of the Omnitrix and your DNA, I will be unstoppable!"

(Jen then squinted and saw a sliver of sunlight coming through the curtains as she smirked.)

Jen: "Hey, Ghostfreak! Eat this!"

(she shouted as she fired an energy beam at him, zapping him away as she ran towards Ben on her energy platforms as she glared and took his hand.)

Jen: "On three?"

Ben: "One."

(Ben said with a glare as Jen prepared to toss him.?

Jen: "Two."

(Jen said as she swung him back and forth.)

Ben and Jen: "Three!"

(They both shouted as Ben grabbed the curtain and pulled it down.)

Ben: "It's time you saw the light, freak!"

(Ben shouted as he pulled the curtain down, bathing Ghostfreak in sunlight, causing him to scream out in pain as Jen nodded.)

(She then shot her hands out and pulled the curtains down with her telekinesis as she leaped away and hit the ground next her brother with a glare as she witnessed Ghostfreak.)

Ghostfreak: "AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH"

(He shouted out in pain from the sunlight as the pair gasped as his body lit on fire before crumbling into ashes in the light as they sighed in relief.)

Jen: "Whew."

(Jen said as she sat down next to her brother as they removed their helmets with a sigh.)

Jen: "So glad that's over."

Ben: "You're telling me, I used to be him."

(Ben said as his sister sighed and looked to him.)

Jen: "But now you only have 11 aliens. I still have 12."

(she said.)

Ben: "I think I'm better off without Ghostfreak."

(Ben said.)

Ben: "I never did like using him."

(Later, the police led the circus freaks away to the squad cars, Thumbskull in a metal body cast, Frightwig in a straight jacket with a hood to restrain her hair and Acid Breath was being wheeled away in a mask and dolly looking like Hannibal Lecter.)

(The tour guide from before walked by before looking to Gwen before giving a snobbish "humph" before walking away.)

Gwen: "Something tells me I am so not getting into Bancroft Academy."

(Gwen sighed as Max laid a hand on her shoulder.)

Ben: "You don't need this stupid school to prove you're smart, Gwen."

(Ben said.)

Jen: "I mean, do you think that any of these eggheads could've brought down those circus freaks? You're better off without this school."

(Jen smiled as Allison and Max nodded with a proud smile.)

(Gwen gasped before she ran forward and hugged the twins with a loving smile.)

Gwen: "That's the nicest thing you've ever said to me! Thanks guys!"

(Jen sighed as she hugged her cousin back and Ben did the same as they eventually released as the twins smiled at each other.)
