Ben 10: Saiyan Unleashed (Snippet/ One-shot)
🕑 Added 2025-05-01 05:54:28 +0000 UTCAuthor Notes: This is a one-shot idea that I got while I was at work.
-------------------------------------------------------
Ben watched in awe alongside Kevin as his cousin sweet-talked their grandmother into letting her be human.
Unfortunately, it was not to be.
“I know what you mean, Gwendolyn. But you simply don’t understand what it means to be an Anodite. Let me show you a glimpse of the power that you wield.”
Verdona, the Grandmother of Ben and Gwen Tennyson, extended her mana into Gwen’s body, trying to forcefully awaken the Anodite part of herself.
The result was Gwen’s screams of pain ringing out in the surroundings.
“Mom! Stop! You are hurting her!”
“I know, sweety, but she needs to endure a little bit of pain before awakening.”
Meanwhile, Ben tried his best to remove the bindings around his body while Kevin aggressively tried to break free from his own constraints.
But all was for naught, as all Ben could do was watch helplessly as his cousin screamed and cried in pain.
It was at this moment that the Omnitrix activated on its own, and all Ben saw was darkness.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Hello? Anyone? Where am I?”
In the endless void that surrounded him, Ben tried to make heads or tails of his situation. And yet, he did not understand one bit about what was happening. All he knew was the Omnitrix activating on its own and darkness consuming his mind.
“Hello, Ben.”
“GAH!!”
Ben was startled as a voice rang out from behind him, causing him to turn around as fast as he could, not paying mind to the fact that he had somehow turned around in a void without any support.
But, the biggest thing that occupied his mind was the familiar form that he was looking at.
His golden hair and oppressive energy were gone, and so was the all-consuming rage that would consume Ben’s mind whenever he assumed his form. His tail was wrapped around his waist like a belt, just like how Ben does when he takes on his form through the Omnitrix. Despite these differences, however, there was no mistaking the being in front of him.
For he was one of the oldest aliens that Ben had ever unlocked.
“Wukong?”
“Indeed. Although first things first, Wukong is the name that you gave my form, it is not my real name. My real name is Broly.”
Many thoughts flashed through Ben’s mind as he considered his situation before finally realizing his current situation.
“…Oh my god, you are like Ghostfreak, aren’t you? You are alive within the Omnitrix.”
“Close, but no. Unlike Ghostfreak, my DNA is not inherently alive. Rather, I am a prisoner within the Codon Stream. My entire being exists within that collection of DNA, imprisoned by Azimuth eons ago.”
“Then, why did you bring me here?”
“Because I want to help you.”
Ben scoffed at that idea before glaring at Broly.
“Right. And I am sure it has nothing to do with the fact that you will take over my body like Ghostfreak tried to do the moment I allow you to materialize.”
“If I wanted to, I could have taken you over the moment you activated my form years ago. But, I acknowledge the fact that your life is your own and I should not try to take over your life simply to free myself.”
At this point, Broly’s expression changed slightly to show his despair.
“Besides, even if I freed myself, what do I do afterward? Everything I cared about has perished so long ago that you can’t even fathom the number of years.”
“You won’t seek revenge against Azimuth?”
“For what? It was I who asked him to imprison me for the sake of the safety of my loved ones.”
Ben was dumbfounded at that answer, unable to comprehend Broly’s answer, but still, he was paranoid about letting his aliens take control of his body, thanks to the trauma he got from Ghostfreak’s actions.
“Still, No. I won’t let you take control. I think I should just use your form to battle Grandma.”
“You don’t understand, Ben. You might use my body and all of its power, but you don’t have the knowledge or the battle instincts I developed while I was free, diminishing my true power to a mere 0.1 % of what I was capable of.”
“Like I said, I won’t let you take over.”
“Then, are you okay with Gwen’s body being destroyed?”
Instantly, the void around them changed to show what was happening outside.
Kevin had freed himself in the time that Ben had spent unconscious and tried to attack Verdona, only for her to use her power to restrain him again. This time, under a truly gargantuan amount of pressure that was starting to distort his stone body.
Ben’s uncle and aunt were on the ground, unconscious, while Gwen had long screamed herself hoarse and was only putting up a feeble defense against his grandmother’s actions.
“Are you willing to take the chance that your loved ones will die before your very eyes? Let me be frank with you, Ben. There are only a handful of species in the universe that can handle the true power of a fully realized Anodite, and all of those transformations are locked away within the Omnitrix. All, except mine. And even then, you cannot use the full potential of my powers since, unlike most of the aliens, we are not born with our powers. We, the Saiyans, work for our power.”
“And unfortunately, you still don’t have access to the Master control, which means that you never had the time to truly train with the powers of my form and reach its full potential.”
At Broly’s words, Ben felt despair creeping into his mind as he watched the images of what was happening outside.
“So, what will it be? Ben? Will you be stubborn about it and let your cousin loose her physical form? Forever changing her into a person that you cannot recognize? Or will you take my offer and save your family?”
Ben knew that he did not have much time left to contemplate, and he also knew that he did not have much chance against Verdona, no matter what transformation he used.
In the end, the teenager sighed in defeat and glared at the Alien, who smiled wryly and held out his hand.
“Just so we are clear, if you try to take over my body, I will set the Omnitrix to self-destruction from within and take you with me.”
“Understood. Now, let’s get to it. I will show you how you should use my body and power properly.”
Suddenly, Broly grinned savagely at the upcoming battle, anticipating the scuffle to get his blood pumping after such a long time.
“Watch carefully, Ben. I’ll show you how a Saiyan deals with things and how you should use my body to its full potential.”
Ben took Broly’s extended arm.
And everything went green.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Verdona watched with pity as her granddaughter finally stopped screaming, having run out of energy to do anything, as her true form was on the verge of manifesting, destroying her physical body, once and for all.
However, before the process could complete, her grandson’s body glowed with emerald light, indicating that the annoying weapon created by the Galvin, Azimuth, was active.
“Hm!? What are you trying to do this time? Benjamin-Impossible!!”
Kevin gave Verdona a confused stare as the elder Anodite screeched in fear and anger as she beheld Ben’s transformation.
“What’s the matter, bitch!? Afraid of Wukong!?”
The Anodite gave a baleful glare to the Osmosian at his taunting words.
“That is no laughing matter, boy! That is a Saiyan!”
“Hm!? So, you know my people? Anodite? How intriguing.”
For a second, silence reigned in the surroundings as Keving had a bad feeling while Verdona instantly abandoned the fight and tried to flee.
However, the moment she tried to turn tail and flee, Broly used instant transmission to appear right in front of her and caught her in a vice grip.
“Ben? What are you doing? Ben!!”
Kevin’s bad feeling became a reality as he watched the cold gaze of Wukong pass over him.
Normally, whenever Ben uses this particular transformation, he is reduced to a screaming and raging mess that attacks everything in sight. However, this time, he was completely in control. Enough control to speak, something that he never could do in his Wukong form.
It is the reason why Ben only used that form as a last resort most of the time.
Putting aside that difference, physically, Wukong looked completely different to Kevin compared to what it was supposed to be.
Instead of a big and bulky raging man with golden hair and putting out waves of energy, this Wukong was completely in control. The golden hair was missing, as was the overly bulky form that always looked like it was on the verge of exploding.
Watching all of these changes, Kevin could not help but remember the debacle with Ghostfreak that Ben had spoken about some time ago.
“Calm down, Kevin. Ben will explain everything to you at a later date. For now, I have work to do.”
With those words, Broly turned to Verdona, who was struggling to get out of the giant’s hand.
“You monster! This is impossible! You apes were all supposed to be dead!!”
“What makes you say that? Anodite. Did you forget that there were still a handful of us left alive after Frieza’s actions?”
Verdona did not reply to Broly’s words and simply pulled all of her mana in a single spot, releasing a devastating beam of energy strong enough to vaporize a planet in an instant.
However, Broly did not even flinch and took the blow head-on with not even a scratch to show for it.
“You call that an attack? Anodite? Let me show you what a real attack is.”
With a thought, Broly teleported to a distant star system, one that his senses had already scouted for any Ki signatures and come up empty, which meant that it had no life in it.
“This is how you perform an attack.”
Broly lazily raised his hand and pointed at the local star, a regular yellow star similar to the Sun, and fired a small projectile of Ki.
However, once the Ki blast hit the star, the celestial body instantly went supernova as the Ki blast exploded in a blaze of emerald energy within its core.
The casual display of destroying an entire star left the Anodite stunned, finally remembering one of the many legends of this monstrous race that had thankfully gone extinct thousands of years ago.
It is said that a fully realized Saiyan is capable of going toe to toe with a God of Destruction, a feat that not even the Celestial Sapiens are capable of achieving.
Watching this display of power, she could not help but wonder if there was truth to those legends after all.
With his little display done, Broly turned to the terrified Anodite and grinned savagely.
“Now that we are done with the dick measuring contest, shall we get to the fight? I’ve been craving a proper scrap for a long while now-“
“I SURRENDER!!!”
“…..That was easy.”
And so, the greatest crisis that Gwen Tennison ever faced was resolved in a semi-peaceful manner thanks to the actions of one Alien held within the Codon Stream.
