Aliens and Fairies are real?!

Chapter 11: Chapter 11: To Kill A Shaman Witch



"I believe...…reintroductions are in order isn't that right...Sapphire?" Ben can be heard saying as Sapphire blinked stupefied for a few seconds before she spoke up

"H-how did you break my curse that the witch put on me?" Sapphire asks as she looks at her hands once more still in somewhat disbelief that her curse had been broken

Though the question leaves Ben quiet for a few moments not knowing how to explain it but he eventually starts talking again

"Well...It's kind of hard to explain" He begins as he turns his left arm into that of Alien X before beginning opening and closing his hand "Though the simplest explanation I can give you is that I just used my genetic manipulation magic on you" Ben says while concentrating ever so slightly as his arm returns to normal

"Well, I can't thank you enough....Ben…right?" Sapphire asks unsure if she heard right, if that was his name

"Yeah, that's my name but Sapphire what I'm curious about is HOW you were cursed and turned into a fox?" Ben asks genuinely confused as why would someone turn some random girl into a fox

That question makes Sapphire pause before she looks down her face contorting in emotion as she clenched her hands into a fist "It was this witch....she took everything from me....my parents....my kingdom....my planet...and most importantly my big sister Icy" Sapphire says her eyes filling with emotion as tears begin to fill her eyes

Meanwhile Ben's eyes widen as he can almost feel the air leave his lungs leaving him speechless 'Icy? But that's...…Holy shit' Ben thinks as he stands up from the couch and kneels down in front of Sapphire before putting a hand on her shoulder taking a deep breath dreading the decision he's about to make but he knows it's better for her to know the truth

"Sapphire I...…..don't know how to say this but I know your sister" Ben says hesitantly, and it only makes it worse once he sees Sapphire's hope in her eyes

"Really where is she?!" Sapphire says as it almost hurts seeing the hope in her eyes as Ben almost clutches his chest as he feels a sharp pain in his heart, but he knows what he has to do

"In Cloud Tower, A school for witches but...…Sapphire your sister....your sister is a bad person" Ben says, and it hurt even worse than Ben thought it would as he sees the hurt and shock in Sapphire's face

"W-witches?! But it was a witch who took away our family, who destroyed OUR lives....the one who cursed me and stopped me from growing up...and she...she decides to be one of them?" Sapphire asks while looking him in the eyes with her voice getting quieter with every word

"And that....unfortunately isn't everything" Ben says as he taps the omnitrix before moving back faceplate before grabbing the core and twisting it a few times "Omnitrix body cam recording: 07/17/2004" Ben said as the omnitrix then displayed a small holographic screen on top of itself as Sapphire blinked her tears away in shock before her sister's and eon's conversation filled her ears

'And if you don't get the ring?' Eon's voice is heard saying and unfortunately the moment Icy's voice comes through tears begin to go down Sapphire's face

'Simple we'll kill her, and you'll burn the body to the point they can't even identify her' Icy is heard saying as Sapphire then in a sudden burst of emotion pushes the omnitrix aside before walking away to the nearby window and looking out of it up at the moon

"Please....please tell me this is a dream and that I'll wake up soon and I'll be under that frozen tree" Sapphire says as she looks back at Ben with tears falling down her cheeks as all Ben can do is look away unable to look her in the eyes

"This....this isn't a dream.....is it" Sapphire says as she feels herself begin sweating while Ben taking a deep breath calming himself before looking her in the eyes

"No...this is reality....I'm sorry Sapphire but this is real life" Ben says, and Sapphire just begins breathing heavily as she puts her hand on her chest feeling her heart begin to beat oddly

"Sapphire?" Ben asks as Sapphire breathing becomes more erratic as she walks back until she hits a wall before beginning to slide down it "Shi-" Ben begins saying before she rushes over to Sapphires side and gets down on one knee do be eye at eye level with her

"Sapphire listen to me" Ben says as he grabs one of Sapphire's hand in an attempt to gain her attention before he begins to take deep breaths "Breathe with me c'mon you can do it….just breathe" Ben says but his words feel like worlds away for Sapphire as the room world seem to be closing in on her…..her family was now broken it would never be the same way it was

Her chest seems to tighten as she went to put her other hand on her chest only for it to be grabbed by Ben as he began to speak "Sapphire listen you're having an anxiety attack you need to breathe" Ben says before taking a couple of breaths before Sapphire begins to take some deep but shaky breaths

"That's good you're doing good" Ben says in a reassuring tone as he takes some deep breaths alongside her as Sapphire begins to slowly calm down

"Good…..that's very good just breathe" Ben says as Sapphire eventually calms down enough for her to be able to speak

"Why did this happen.....why did my life turn out this way" Sapphire says her voice still shaky and unfortunately Ben doesn't have an answer even though he wishes he did

"I….don't know but sometimes...…sometimes life takes turn....turns that affect us for the rest of our lives" Ben says as he looks down at the omnitrix as it almost seems to glow for a few seconds before returning to normal

"I just wish....I wish that things could go back to normal...mom, dad, Icy...just the four of us…..I want my family back" Sapphire says as tears begin to form once more in her eyes as Ben looks down before sitting down next to her

Ben doesn't quite know what to say as all he can do for now is just sit there and comfort her as he gently places a hand on her back

"Ben....you're strong right?" Sapphire says which is a question that honestly confuses Ben more than anything else as he expected her to ask something more along the lines of if she could stay with him, but the question wasn't unwelcomed, anything to take her mind off of what she was currently going through

"Yeah, I'm strong, hell you could probably consider me the strongest being in the whole of Magix" Ben says while looking at the omnitrix before looking back at Sapphire as she gains an angry glare in her eyes as she wipes away the tears

"Please whenever you can please go to my home of Dyamond....and kill the witch that ruined my life" Sapphire as Ben's eyes widen in shock not thinking that this was the direction she was going with that question

"Sapphire...I....ok I understand" Ben said though a bit reluctant and as much as he hated to agree he understood where she was coming from, as he himself had killed Grampa Max for revenge when he killed Rook

"But listen let's talk about this another day, you need rest so you can process everything that's happened today" Ben says putting a hand on her shoulder before getting up and making a hand motion for her to follow him which she does hesitantly

The two walk into Amy's room and she can be seen peacefully sleeping on her new bed

"But where am I going to sleep?" Sapphire asks only for her question to be immediately answered as Ben turns his left arm into that of Alien X's before he snaps a bed into existence that's slightly bigger than Amy's

"Sleep tight and if you need anything I'm in the room on the right" Ben says softly giving Sapphire one last reassuring mile before he walks out of the room and closes the door as the two let out an almost synchronized sigh

"Well.....I'm not sleeping tonight...I might as well go and fight that witch now" Ben says though he's not really sure if he should kill her....maybe he could just threaten her to leave Dyamond

"I guess...I guess l'll figure it out as I go" Ben said as he then carefully snuck over to the window before opening and putting one leg out before the other "careful....now!" Ben says as he grabs onto the window closing it as he fell "C'mon Jetray!" He yelled as the core popped up only to be quickly slammed down by him quickly followed by a green flash of light and just before Ben hits the ground, he stops hovering just slightly above the ground now transformed into Jetray

"You know now that I think about it" Jetray says putting a hand up to his head before flying up high above Alfea "How in the hell am I going to find Dyamond without directions" Jetray says before facepalming before sighing and just shooting off into the sky picking one direction and going through with it

 

Many minutes pass as Jetray flew through the vacuum of space and he had passed many planets as he went from realm to realm before eventually stopping as he perches on the sign out in outer space orbiting a nearby planet before sighing

"Great...I'm lost" Jetray says before leaning forward to read the sign he's perched on as he struggles for a bit having to read it upside down but he's eventually able to "A…..Andros?" he says before shrugging and looking behind him at the mostly watered planet

"Well, someone there has to have some directions they can give me" Jetray says before hopping off the sign and rapidly descending down to the planet's surface eventually reaching it a few seconds later before perching down on some random roof

"Great...who the hell am I supposed to ask?" Ben says as he looks around the empty streets before noticing this massive castle in the distance and sees what seems like someone standing on a balcony "Well they look like they could help me" he says before slamming down on the omnitrix symbol quick changing into Ghostfreak just in case before turning invisible and flying over to the balcony

 

There is this dark-skinned girl probably around his age is seen just standing in the balcony with her elbows on the railing as she sighs to herself as she was unable to catch any sleep before she then looks up at the night sky

"Excuse me" a disembodied voice seems to suddenly cut through the silence she had grown accustomed to as she looks around panicked

"Hello?" The girl asks while looking around before Ghostfreak then makes himself visible as the girl takes a step back as her eyes widen in pure shock

"Hey there, sorry for my intrusion but" Ghostfreak begins before the girl lets out a scream as she takes another step back, but she ends up tripping falling on her back

"A g-ghost!" she says before grabbing the closest thing to her being a small brush and throws it at him only for Ghostfreak to grab it out of midair as he then slowly descends over to her as the girl holds her breath expecting the worst only for Ghostfreak to laugh

Ghostfreak laughs for a bit before coughing as he stops himself from laughing any further "Sorry sorry…..I get that a lot but I'm not a ghost" Ghostfreak says as he shakes his head before slamming on the omnitrix symbol reverting back to human as he gives her a small smirk

"Name's Ben" Ben says as he extends out his hand with the brush out as the girl then grabs it though hesitantly "Sorry I scared you I probably should've chosen one of my friendlier looking transformations" Ben said before extending out his other hand to help her up which she takes and pulls herself up with Ben's help

"I'm Aisha…." Aisha says though still a bit distrusting of Ben as he turns and looks out taking in the view with him letting out a silent 'Wow'

Aisha takes this chance to look at Ben more closely as he doesn't seem dangerous and neither does he look like he means her any harm

"Wow....Aisha this place is amazing….wait no Ben remember you're on a mission" Ben says having to remind himself that he's not here to look around and instead he's on a mission to kill a witch

"Mission....what Mission?" Aisha asks putting her fists up just in case she has to transform if her initial assumption of him was wrong

"I'm on my way to defeat this witch that froze the planet of Dyamond, but I got lost on the way there and ended up here on Andros" Ben says looking up at the night sky before shaking his head wishing he had just left it for another day and cursing himself for getting impatient

"But then why are you telling me this?" Aisha says as then Ben just turns away as avoid her seeing his embarrassed blush as he rubbed the back of his head

"Like I said....I got lost and wanted to ask if.....you got any directions for Dyamond" Ben say before turning to look at her and giving her this embarrassed smile

Aisha just blinks before she begins to giggle and eventually burst out into full laughter as she looks at Ben's embarrassed expression

"Yeah yeah....I know kind of stupid" Ben says still with the same awkward smile as he grabs onto the railing and hops up sitting down on it

"No no...It's just funny" Aisha says struggling to stop laughing as she walks up to Ben before pointing up at the night sky as Ben looks up his gaze following her finger until his eyes find this one lonely star amongst the rest

"That's Dyamond if not mistaken…..though it's quite the trip with it being a pretty isolated realm and all" Aisha says and just as she turns to look at Ben he had already transformed back into Jetray as he prepared to take off

"Thanks, anyways I better take off see you around" Jetray says but before he can take off Aisha grabs his hand stopping him from flying

"Wait!" Aisha says loudly, surprising Jetray as he turns to look at her as she then hesitates for a moment before speaking up "you promise to come visit me again?" Aisha asks and the question honestly surprises him since he didn't think she'd want to see him again

Jetray hesitates for a moment before smiling and nodding "I promise Aisha" Jetray says as Aisha smiles back though she almost seems to blush, but he doesn't notice it with her then letting go of his arm with him giving her one last wave before he then shoots off into the sky quickly exiting Andros's atmosphere as she flies off towards Dyamond

Aisha continues standing there for a few moments still staring in the direction Jetray flew off before she then spoke up "I hope you do follow through with your promise Ben....you're the first person from outside the I've spoken to in a while" Aisha says before turning and walking inside as she's then heard saying "I can't wait to tell the pixies about you"

 

Cold....was the first word Ben thought of to describe Dyamond as he rapidly descended down it's atmosphere before quick changing into his Cybertronian form with the ground shaking the moment his metallic feet made contact with the ground below

"God this place is even more of a mess than Domino" The cybertronian said as he looked around with his optics surveilling the area before spotting what seems to be a castle in the distance

"With any luck that'll be the royal palace...which means she could be there" he says as his green optics narrow before he takes a running start quickly transforming into his vehicle form as his engine lets out a dragon like roar as she speeds up leaving a trail of kicked up snow behind him

"Now that I've got time to think I should really think of a name for this guy...hmm" Ben says speeding up to his vehicle form's limits

"Hmm...Ah ha! I got it, Decimus Prime...yes that's the perfect name for this guy" Decimus says as he eventually arrives at the Palace's front door before ramming it open with his vehicle form before transforming as soon as the door burst open with both of his hands turning into ion blasters as his optics land on the witch who even though her eyes are covered by her hair he can still see the shock in her face

"Wha- HOW DARE YOU!" The witch yells getting up from her ice throne as some ice golems quickly get in front of her with another one coming up from beside Decimus who points and fires a blast from one of his ion blasters into the golem's head destroying it

"Who the hell do you think you're?!" The witch says as Decimus stays quiet before putting on his battle mask

"Who do I think I am?" Decimus says in a humorous tone before he begins charging up both of his blasters "Well…...I'm the guy who's going to kill you" Decimus says his voice suddenly turning serious before charging towards her as he begins firing his Ion blasters destroying most of the ice golems protecting her

The witch briefly looks surprised before sending some ice spikes at him which Decimus manages to duck under before transforming into his vehicle form and speeding up as an Ice golem charges in trying to stop him only for him to get run over and for Decimus to slam right into the witch sending the two crashing through the ice throne and out the wall behind him into the courtyard as he reverts back to his human form mid fall before landing on the snowy ground outside

The witch then crashes beside him as she gets up but not before vomiting out blood as most of her ribs had been broken after Decimus rammed into her

"Yeah that doesn't feel good now does it?" Ben asks in an almost joking tone as he activates the omnitrix before slamming down on the core and just as the witch begins to try and use one of her ice spells, she gets punched right in the face by Shocksquatch as he doesn't allow her even a moment to breathe as he just begins punching her over and over again with each punch being electrically charged before he then delivers one final punch sending her flying into the wall as it cracks open leaving a crater

The witch then slowly slides down the wall with a trail of blood being left as she slid onto the floor breathing heavily as Shocksquath reverts back to human and Ben using his genetic manipulation turns his right arm into that of Decimus before turning that hand into an Ion blaster as he walks up pointing the blaster at the Witch's head

The witch then looks up weakly wondering who the hell he was and how he had completely overpowered her "I am the Shaman Witch the most powerfu-" She begins to try and boast only for a shot from Ben's ion blaster to go straight into her right knee forcing her to scream

"Don't care didn't ask" Ben says coldly as he puts the barrel of the blaster against her forehead as her eyes widen realizing that...she's going to die

"W-wait!" She yells panicked trying to back up even though her back is already against the wall as Ben just gives her this dark glare as he charges up a shot

"This is for Sapphire, bitch" Ben says as he pulls the trigger firing a shot right into the witch's forehead, blowing her head right open splattering her brains right against the wall in a sight so gruesome Ben has to look away

Ben's left alone there as he takes some deep breath to calm down his adrenaline as he pats himself down to see if he's injured and no, surprisingly he wasn't even hurt once

"I might've gone too far.....but this is what Sapphire wanted...fuck...I better get going….I need a nap" Ben says panting as he's breathing heavily before his right arm returns to normal as he then activates his omnitrix and slams down on the core transforming right back into Jetray as he looks up at the night sky before he takes some steps forward before flying off into the sky with the clouds parting open as he flew through them letting moonlight shine in on the royal palace's courtyard and for the first time in many years...the royal palace of Dyamond….is finally at.....peace
