Ben 10 What If Ben Was Involved In A Tetramand Petrosapien War

"Beginning recording on parallel reality number 4402." The robotic voice stated

"Hello there my name is Paradox, Professor Paradox. Although I have to admit my credentials are a bit out of date. Anyways today I want to tell a story which I'm sure if nothing else you'll find amusing. You see lately I've become increasingly interested in Parallel universes more specifically the events that create parallel universes. You see most people see time travel and dimension travel as two different things but quite frankly the two are far more similar than most people think. The reason for this is quite simple: you see time travel and alternate realities both operate on the Schrodinger dilemma where one simultaneously can exist and cannot exist although time travel does involve more relative space time theories. But that's besides the point anyways what I'm trying to tell you is that both time travel and Parallel dimension each have certain events that are integral to their histories. The most obvious example being young Ben Tennyson obtaining the Omnitrix in nearly every reality. Today I will be exploring a universe in which a young Ben caught up in a conflict between Petrosapiens and Tetramands. Ah I see that peaked your interest now lets begin.

"Careful with that thing dweeb." An annoyed red haired girl said to him. Ben looked up to see his annoying cousin Gwen with her hands on her hips looking down at him. 

"Man she is always on my back" Ben was sitting down at the bench inside the Rust-bucket fiddling with the watch trying to see if he could unlock more aliens or maybe figure out the master control sequence. Ever since he had met Azmuth he had become more interested in the omnitrix. 

"Calm down doofus, it's not like I'm gonna break it." Ben replied snarkily.

 "Yeah like that time you took off the top of that thing and turned into a bunch of freaky alien combo monsters." Gwen replied, rolling her eyes at the statement. 

"That was one time!" Ben exclaimed annoyed at his cousin for bringing up past mistakes. Suddenly Ben felt the ground shake and heard a large boom come from outside. 

"Grandpa!" Ben quickly got up out of his seat and ran for the door after remembering that his Grandfather had been outside searching for their dinner.

 "Ben, wait!" Gwen said but by then Ben had already opened the door and was out in the night. It took his eyes a moment to adjust but when they finally did he saw what had caused the shockwave. 

"That's Textraxs ship, what's it doing here?" The ship caused a crater a few feet from the Rust bucket. Ben quickly rushed over and entered the crater. The front part had been damaged leaving a wide hole and sparking wires. 

"Ben." Ben turned in time to see Tetrax collapse onto the ground. 

"Tetrax!" Ben ran over to him. He tried to nudge him awake but when he reached down to grab his arm he realized that it was gone. 

"What happened to him?"

A Short While Later....

Tetrax had awoken two days after falling unconscious. 

"Good thing Grandpa knows how to work this stuff or he'd be a goner." 

The thought made Ben uncomfortable as he still didn't know what had happened to Tetrax, the one person Ben had considered invincible. 

"Hh... Ben... need your help." Tetrax slowly tried to upright himself and turn to face Ben but had used the arm without a hand at first not realizing it was missing. He looked down and as if realizing for the first time his arm was gone used his other one to center himself. He looked around the room and noticed Grandpa and Gwen as well as Gluto who had reformed himself shortly after Ben had seen Tetrax and had helped Ben take him to the ships infirmary. Ben had quickly recognized the place from when Tetrax had brought him there to scan the omnitrix. "
