"It's cold....." said Mikoto shivering. "It's soo......cold......"

Ben and Mikoto continued to head down the dark hallway. It was so dark that none of them could make out what was in the hallway, just that it was narrow and dark. Mikoto huddled close to Ben as he put his arm around her shoulder. The cold wasn't the only thing bothering Mikoto. She could practically feel hatred all over this place, as if the darkness itself wanted to take the two of them and rend their flesh from their own bones.

"We're getting close...." said Ben..

"How do you know?"

"Remember how Z'Skayr's (Ghostfreak) is supposedly sealed away inside me?" said Ben. "Well let's just say I feel more like an Ectonurite then usual, like the old hate's coming back to stir me up........"

Mikoto clutched the warm hand that held her shoulder while at the same time feeling the hard bright Omnitrix on it's wrist, as if hoping both those things would give her the warmth she needed. "Stay close to me........"

"Definitely." said Ben. "How about I turn into NRG or something.....warm up this place?"

"Thanks for the offer." said Mikoto. "But I think I prefer you the way you are......we're about to enter the final battle anyways, so when we go in their, you'll definitely go alien........I wanna enjoy the best you while I still can..."

"True enough...." said Ben as he hugged Mikoto tighter. "True enough........"

Finally Ben and Mikoto came to the end of the hall where an automatic door slid open into a room that was lit with a red light. The moment the twosome entered the room, the door shut behind them. In the center of the room was a large stone statue of a massive squid-like monster with evil glowing eyes.

"Greetings.....Tennyson...Misaka..." said an evil ancient voice. "Welcome to my chambers.....Aleister has so kindly provided me with suitable quarters until I return to this side of reality."

"Diagon..." said Ben. "You're....stiffer then I imagined."

"This statue is merely a vessel for my consciousness so as to draw me into this world......" said Diagon. "The war that was fought over your Celestialsapien form has finally created enough chaos that I am mere minutes from returning to this plane."

"That's not going to happen...." said Ben. "We're not letting you have your way....even if it costs us our lives."

"Well you will definitely lose your lives....." said Diagon. "I can gaurauntee that much, but it is too late.......I am nearly within the thresh hold of this world.....soon....you shall both perish with the name Diagon upon your lips."

"Now that's one line I've heard villians spit all over the place." Said Ben activating his Omnitrix. "And one thing villians never learn.....is that heros don't give up so easily."

In a flash of green light, Ben became large dark green and muscular with black jumpsuit-like pants and large metal boots. Metal screws were embeded in parts of his chest and two giant electric generators stuck out of his shoulders like spikes. His hands became covered in metal glove-like structures and his hair became black and wild. Frankenstrike bashed his fists together creating a powerful electric charge that was colored green.

"Going with an electric alien huh?" Said Mikoto raising an eyebrow and smiling.

"When you have one electromaster in the house, you might as well get a second for the finale." Said Frankenstrike.

"Hmph...." said Diagon. "So predictable... and just what do you hope to accomplish?"

"Well for one thing." said Frankenstrike. "We're going to smash that statue!!"
