Villain!Ben & Rook moment

The place was shockingly quiet. The muted sound of the radio played as Rook's eyes gazed across the street. He sipped on his drink silently. Suddenly, over the intercom, he heard a shout for backup.
Rook put his drink in the cupholder and pressed hard on the gas, the van's tires screeching on the pavement. Once to the address stated over the intercom, the van skidded to a stop and he jumped out. There were already multiple police cars and multiple Plumber vans surrounding the bank.
Rook's head tilting slightly, he thought to himself, "Who are they dealing with?" Typically, it only took a small squad of police officers to take down a crook robbing the bank. But with the fact of multiple cars belonging both to the police force and the Plumbers? This must have been someone that was definitely more than just a regular burglar.
"Blonko!" Someone shouted to Rook. The Revonnahgander turned slightly to see Tack, a young Plumber who had recently joined the higher ranks, running over to him.
"Tack, what is going on?" Rook asked, looking back at the bank.
"I'm not sure, I haven't gone in yet." Tack huffed, moving his hair out of his face. "But one of our guys got thrown out of the second story window! He's okay- for the most part anyway."
"Are you aware of how dangerous the crook might be?" Rook spoke as he grabbed his Proto-tool from his hip. He pressed a button and it morphed itself into a basic blaster.
"I'd say maybe the Vreedle brothers amount of danger?" Tack shrugged.
"So fairly dangerous, but not a world devistating threat. That is good to know. Thank you, Tack." Rook nodded to the young alien before heading in, holding his Proto-tool to his chest.
His orange eyes darted around the room, making a quick assessment of the situation. There were hostages being rushed out of the building, some with a few cuts but otherwise safe. There were pieces of sandy yellow cloth strewn about. They seemed to have been ripped and cut off. Eyes narrowing, Rook dashed up the stairs over the corner. He looked around the first part of the room he came across, greeted by a broken window with wind whistling through it.
"Fuzzball!" A annoyingly familiar voice shouted, full of glee. Rook groaned inwardly from the annoyance that weighed down his shoulders. He took a breath and turned to face the deviant. Bright green eyes stared back at Rook, a wide grin on the guy's face. His brown hair swayed as he stood on the counter.
"Benjamin Tennyson." Rook growled, aiming his Proto-tool at the wielder of the Omnitrix.
"Awww, c'mon! You wouldn't shoot your favorite guy, would ya?" Ben said, tilting his head and putting his hands on his chest.
"You are far from my favorite person." Rook rolled his eyes. "Get down from there and come here. You are being detained."
"Detained? Is that a fancy word for being locked up?" Ben chuckled, hopping off of the counter. "Oooh, I'm sooooo scared!" Ben waved his hands, sarcasm dripping from his voice.
"As you should be." Rook replied, oblivious to the sarcasm. "You have committed many crimes that are against the law of the Uni-"
Ben cut him off with a wave of his hand. "Man, I didn't come here to be lectured by a cutie like you." Rook blinked at the criminal's word of choice.
"Cutie?" Rook repeated, tilting his head with an unamused look. "You are not allowed to call me that."
"Awe, why not mister goody-two shoes?" Ben teased, approaching the Revonnahgander.
"Do not come any closer." He warned, lifting his Proto-tool. "Because that is trying to sweet talk me, as it is called. I will not be sweet talked by a criminal as low as yourself."
Ben's smile gave way to a frown, the glitter in his eyes fading. His mask dropped for a second. An entire second. It was long enough for Rook to see the disappointment and skepticism in the humans lime eyes. But the glint and playfulness returned just as quickly as it came.
"C'mon, I'm no low-life crook! I'm Ben god-damn Tennyson!" He laughed, swinging his arms out.
Rook frowned. "Put your hands behind your back." He demanded. While concern edged the back of his mind, he needed to focus on his duty. Detaining the criminal.
Ben's lips stuck out in a pout as he put his hands on his hips. "Nah, I don't think I will." He chuckled. Rook's eyes narrowed at him. The brunette flashed Rook a grin and darted past him, catching the Revonnahgander by surprise.
Rook spun around, putting his Proto-tool up and shooting. Ben ducked under the blasts, rolling across the floor. He popped up and jumped behind a pillar.
"Ben, I demand you surrender at once!" Rook shouted, glancing at the clerk behind the counter. He nodded to the stairs. The clerk vaulted over the counter and ran, slipping down to the stairs. The Revonnahgander returned his gaze to Ben, who was peeking out from behind the pillar.
"And just let you catch me? Where's the fun in that!" Ben retorted, his eye glinting with amusement.
"The fun is getting you into a heavily guarded cell so you cannot cause any more issues in Bellwood!" Rook shot back, shooting at Ben. The human jumped back behind the pillar again. Rook's neck fur stood as he saw a bright flash of green light come from behind the pillar.
"Hehehehe!" A crickety voice giggled from the pillar. Rook readied himself for Ben's Kineceleran, XLR8. The blue blur dashed behind Rook and poked him in the pack. Not too hard, but enough to be noticeable. Rook whipped around and punched at thin air. XLR8 appeared behind him again, this time wrapping his arms around Rook and restraining the Revonnahgander's arms. Panic struck Rook like lightning. He dropped all of his weight, surprising the Kineceleran into loosening his grip. Rook managed to squirm out of his grasp and leaped forward. He jumped up and spun around, shooting at XLR8.
XLR8 was faster, dodging the blasts with ease. Rook's eyes narrowed into a glare and he glanced up. Noticing a dip in the ceiling, he quickly pointed the blaster up and shot multiple times. The ceiling collapsed, crumbling and dropping onto XLR8. He gave a sharp gasp before letting out a pained yelp as the debris landed on him. A bright flash of green shone from under the debris as Rook approached.
Rook glared down at the rubble for a few seconds. The concern in his mind had only grown further as he had fought Ben. Why had he looked so upset before? Rook shook the thoughts from his head. He had to focus on the task at hand. He leaned down and yanked a large piece of rubble away from the pile. Through the debris peeked the white jacket of Ben's. Rook reached down and grabbed it, pulling the brunette out of the rubble.
The Revonnahgander held Ben up with one arm around his back, the other holding him close to Rook's chest as he looked at Ben for any injuries. There were a few scrapes across his face, and otherwise he seemed fine. But Rook couldn't take his eyes off of Ben for some reason. Ben's eyes blinked partly open, widening upon seeing Rook holding him. He stared at Rook, a tint of red dusted along his face. Rook couldn't help but stare back. He felt encapsulated by those lime colored eyes of his. There was a long moment of silence between the two until Ben flashed Room a grin and squirmed out of his grip, running to the window.
Rook had just enough time to jump up and spin around, eyes wide as he stared at Ben standing on the window sill.
"I'll see you next week for my next performance, then!" Ben winked at the Revonnahgander and leapt. Rook raced to the window sill and looked over the edge. Ben was nowhere to be seen. Rook gave a growl of frustration and slammed a fist on the frame of the broken window.
"Dammit." He cussed quietly, looking at the cloudy sky. Every time he was so close to capturing the human, he always failed it last second. Every time. What was wrong with him? Each time he had always hesitated way too long at the last minute with a weird feeling in his chest. No matter the situation, he always seemed to fail when it came to catching Ben Tennyson.
