Continuing on from last time, Gwen stood, falling back as Zs'Skayr got in close to Gwen's face.

Zs'Skayr: hello again young Tennyson.

Gwen: but I killed you. You should be gone.

Zs'Skayr: you can never truly kill an ectonurite.

Gwen started slapping the omnitrix, hoping to transform into anything however Zs'Skayr managed to grab a hold of her, and he immediately tried to merge with her. However, as he did so, a pink flash occurred around him.

Zs'Skayr: I did it. I'm whole again.

He then started coughing as greymatter came falling out.

Gwen: I have never felt better about being greymatter.

Zs'Skayr: that watch won't protect you forever.

Gwen started running, hiding away as she managed to take a hold in a tiny satellite.

Gwen: I sure hope greymatter is smart enough to get this back up and running.

She started tinkering with the satellite as Zs'Skayr and Dr Viktor were looking for her. Zs'Skayr phasing in and out of various different parts of the ship.

Dr Viktor: master, the time is almost here, we need to go.

Zs'Skayr walked over and he merged with Dr Viktor, throwing him around the room, before exiting Dr Viktor's body.

Zs'Skayr: we need the child, and we need her alive. Do you understand?

Dr Viktor: I understand master.

Gwen had finally gotten the communications online, managing to talk to ben and max.

Gwen: do you come in? do you come in?

Max: we read you loud and clear.

Ben: oh, it's grey matter. Here comes the exposition dump.

Gwen: well, you're going to need it. I think I've figured out what old bolt brains needs with the corodium. That sat lie, it's an energy bouncing satellite. It'll send the beam of corodium to a satellite in New Mexico, from there the satellite will be able to position itself to half the planet will always be covered in a sheet of darkness.

Max: and everybody on earth would become mutated.

Gwen: and that's just a side effect, with that kind of power, Zs'Skayr would be at full power.

Max and ben: Zs'Skayr?

Gwen: oh yeah, he's back too.

Ben: and the spooky get spookier, has he brought a zombie, or vampire with him to complete the set.

Gwen: not the time doofas, this is scarious.

Max: and this ship has the corodium deposits on it, so we're heading right for the satellite.

Gwen hears something breaking behind her and she gets nervous.

Gwen: got to go, I'll get up there somehow.

Max: be careful.

Gwen: I will be grandpa.

She hangs up the call and tries to leave when the omnitrix times out. The flash catching Dr Viktor's attention.

Zs'Skayr: ah, how foolish the young are.

Gwen: why do you even want to take over earth? What's so special about this place?

Zs'Skayr: well, a few things. For starters this was the world where my body was used against my will, for second it's the planet you hold so near and dear to your heart despite having thousands of home worlds with that device, and finally this will be the home word to bring back the vladats.
