Ben arrived at the next universe but there was nothing. Just space. Somehow breathable and walkable. Ben looked to the Omnitrix to try and get the map up or warp somewhere else but it didn't work.
Ben: Yeah that figures.
Ben kept walking forward when he noticed what looked like a single small building in the distance.
Ben: Hopefully this place has heat. It's freezing out here.
Ben continued forward until he made it to the building. He went to open the door but it resisted. Ben transformed into Rath and was able to open it with a little struggle. A white blinding light came from inside, but once his eyes adjusted he walked into the building and transformed back.
Ben: Finally.
Ben walked forward where he saw the last alien he needed to get, Alien X!
Paradox: Hello, Benjamin!
Professor Paradox stepped out from behind Alien X
Ben: Paradox? How did you get here? What even is here?
Paradox: This entire universe was created by the Contumelia as a viewing station.
Ben: Viewing station? What were they viewing?
Paradox: Well, everything!
Ben looked around and saw two walls, both with their own set of infinite monitors.
Ben: Why are the monitors on this wall on but all the ones on the other are off?
Paradox: Ben, you have to promise me you will not overreact. You need to keep a level head and think about what is best for the universes.
Ben: What are you talking about?
Paradox: You see, those monitors there are all from our Omniverse, and they are off because... every universe there has been wiped out.
Ben: No no no...you said...I was supposed to be able to stop it. Grandpa...Gwen.
Paradox: I'm sorry, Ben. But there was no other way. But we can still change things.
Ben: Yeah we can. I'm getting Alien X back and stopping all of this.
Paradox: Ben, no! Have you not learned from before? If you use Alien X at the wrong time we are all doomed.
Ben: Wrong time? Then what's the right time?! Everyone I know and love is gone and I did nothing to stop it!
Paradox: You must trust me, Benjamin. You will know when the right time is. I would bet my life on it. You will-
A large fist thrust through Paradox's chest killing him instantly.
Vilgax: Poor choice of words, timewalker.
Ben: NOOOOO!
Ben thrust the Omnitrix towards Alien X collecting his DNA back into it. The Omnitrix started to spin and glow green, then green bolts of electricity struck into the Omntrix from millions of different directions. All of Ben's aliens were back!
Vilgax: Even with your alien forms you couldn't beat me. Surrender now.
Ben: Not in a million universes, Vilgax.
Ben quickly activated the Omnitrix and transformed into Fourarms wailing on Vilgax, but he was not even moved an inch by the punches.
Vilgax: That's the best you got?
Vilgax slammed Fourarms through the wall and into the vast space that was outside. He stepped over him and picked him up by his arms, and threw him into the ground head first, causing him to transform back into Ben.
Vilgax: Give up!
Vilgax threw a strong punch downwards towards Ben's face, but Ben quickly changed into Echo Echo and let out a scream so loud it caught his fist in the air for a second. It did not last long though, as Vilgax prevailed and punched right through Echo Echo's face. Luckily he duplicated himself in time and ran, transforming instantly into Heatblast.
Vilgax: Run all you want, Tennyson! You cannot escape your fate.
Heatblast threw fireballs backwards at Vilgax, though they bounced right off him, not even leaving a mark. He kept running and turned to see where Vilgax was but he had vanished. Heatblast turned forward again to see that Vilgax was directly in front of him and he bumped right into him.
Vilgax: Enough!
Vilgax grabbed Heatblast by the head, putting out his flame, making him change back to Ben. He fell to his knees in defeat.
Vilgax: After all of these years. My greatest enemy. I have defeated you! And I will now take my prize.
Vilgax grabbed the Omnitrix and it started to spark. Ben started to flicker in and out of reality.
Vilgax: What is this? What are you doing?
The Omnitrix let out a giant blast pushing Vilgax from it. Ben looked down at it while still fading in and out of reality, and saw there was an alien dialed in he'd never seen before.
Ben: Oh.... It's hero time!
Ben slammed down on the Omnitrix and transformed into a new alien that was large and dragon-like, with multiversal powers!
Verseotile: Hmm. I think I'll call him...Verseotile!
Vilgax: NO!
Vilgax ran at him, but Verseotile made a portal below his feet that let out above him, making him endlessly fall in place. Verseotile charged up his attack and punched Vilgax, sending him flying. He walked up to Vilgax and started pummeling him into the ground.
Verseotile: Surrender, Vilgax!
Vilgax: Never!
Vilgax shot his laser eyes at him and rushed at him, but Verseotile created four portals, one for each of Vilgax's limbs and sent each of them to a different universe. All that remained there was his head.
Vilgax: I swear to you, Ben Tennyson! I will be free of this! And when I am, I will hunt you down across the multiverse and end your feeble existence once and for all!
Verseotile switched back into Ben and walked away towards the viewing building.
Ben: Yeah yeah. Heard it all before.
Vilgax: CURSE YOU BEN TENNYSON!!!
Ben went back into the building and saw Paradox's body. He took a knee and a moment of silence for him, then got up and looked at the monitors. He looked to the wall with the working monitors and noticed something was wrong. One of them started going out.
Ben: No!
Ben clenched his fist and activated the Omnitrix with that destination in mind but hesitated. In the back of his head he heard a voice
Paradox: Now.
Ben activated the Omnitrix and headed to that universe to finally confront who was behind it all, and bring back his Omniverse.
