The dim underground tunnel was a wreck—scorch marks, cracked stone, and debris scattered everywhere.
Four Arms' golden eyes glowed faintly as he strode forward, his massive frame casting deep shadows across the ruined tracks. He stopped before the flaming Kevin, towering over him.
"Kevin, I'll give you one last chance," Four Arms said, his knuckles cracking like gunfire. "If you won't change your ways, then I'll just have to beat some sense into you."
Kevin scoffed and pushed himself to his feet. "Then come and try."
Four Arms didn't waste another word. His enormous fist, the size of a boulder, swung forward, the sheer force tearing through the air as it crashed toward Kevin.
In desperation, Kevin thrust out his hand and unleashed a torrent of blazing fire that surged straight toward him.
BOOM!
The impact echoed through the tunnel. Four Arms' punch tore through the flames, scattering them into a burst of heat that evaporated into the darkness.
But Kevin was running on fumes. The energy within him was nearly depleted—he couldn't keep up.
"Kevin Levin, you brought this on yourself."
Four Arms grabbed him by the collar as if he weighed nothing, lifted him off the ground, and drew back a fist ready to strike.
Suddenly, Kevin's hand shot out, clamping tightly around Four Arms' forearm.
"Hahahaha! You really are an idiot, Ben Tennyson!" he cackled, eyes wild. His palm began to glow as he drained the energy straight from Four Arms' body.
Four Arms' expression shifted. "Not good—"
"It's too late!" Kevin snarled.
Before the words finished leaving his mouth, his body began to twist and bulge. His lean frame swelled rapidly, muscles expanding grotesquely as his skin took on a deep crimson hue.
Within moments, thick, corded limbs replaced his arms, and fire coursed across his skin. Two additional arms erupted from his sides, veins flaring with molten energy.
He'd copied him.
A four-armed Kevin.
"Well now… this is gonna be fun."
Across the tunnel, Four Arms steadied himself, rubbing his head as he got back up. That punch had packed a real hit.
Thud. Thud.
Four-Armed Kevin stomped forward, each step shaking the ground. "Ben Tennyson, let's see who's beating who now!"
His eyes burned with a crazed light as he grinned mockingly.
"I'm not holding back this time."
Four Arms let out a low growl, then launched forward like a cannonball, the wind howling around him as he charged.
In an instant, the two giants collided, fists slamming into each other with bone-crushing force. The ground quaked. Shattered rock flew in every direction.
Four Arms roared, crossing two of his massive arms to block Kevin's punch before driving his other two fists into Kevin's midsection with explosive impact.
Kevin grunted in pain, fury blazing in his eyes. With a shout, he grabbed one of Four Arms' limbs and heaved him skyward.
CRASH!
Four Arms' massive, red body smashed through the ceiling, bursting up to the surface above. He rolled across the street before coming to a stop, dazed.
As he got his bearings, he realized he was surrounded—dozens of bystanders stared at him in shock.
Then, chaos.
Screams erupted. People scattered in every direction, terror on their faces.
"Ahhh! What is that thing?!"
"It just came out of the ground! Is it some kind of… mole man?!"
"It's got four arms! That's terrifying!"
"Don't panic—wait! Let me get a picture first!"
A young woman quickly pulled out her phone, snapped a selfie with Four Arms in the background, and then stumbled away to join the fleeing crowd.
"Call the police! Somebody call the police!"
...
Watching the terrified crowd scatter in all directions, Four Arms groaned and covered his face with one massive hand. "Oh, great. This is definitely gonna hit the news."
BOOM!
A blood-red figure erupted from underground, crashing down a few meters away. The impact shook the entire street, sending dust and debris flying as the ground quaked violently.
"Ben Tennyson, you're finished."
Four-Armed Kevin's face twisted into a monstrous grin, his muscles bulging like a prehistoric titan, his presence radiating raw menace.
"Bring it on, you freak!" Four Arms shot back, dropping into a fighting stance without hesitation.
Just as Kevin lunged forward, a fleet of police vehicles screeched to a halt nearby.
Dozens of Special Defense Force agents poured out, dressed in black tactical armor and armed with high-powered laser rifles. They moved in tight formation, surrounding the two giants in an instant.
"Fire!" the squad captain barked.
Zzzzt! Zzzzt!
A storm of golden laser beams rained down, weaving together into a blinding net of light that poured over the two combatants like a torrential downpour.
"Fools," Kevin snarled.
He raised his massive arms to shield his face, then grabbed a nearby truck and hurled it with monstrous strength.
The vehicle crashed into the front line of soldiers with a deafening explosion, throwing bodies and debris through the air.
One strike—and the special forces took heavy casualties.
Seeing their panic, Kevin threw back his head and laughed maniacally. "Hahahaha!" He tore more cars from the street and hurled them one after another, explosions lighting up the area as chaos consumed the scene.
Outmatched, the remaining forces scrambled to retreat, calling for heavier weaponry.
When the smoke cleared, the once-bustling street was unrecognizable—scorched earth, shattered glass, and scattered belongings left behind by fleeing civilians.
Now, only the two four-armed monsters remained. No one else dared approach. Those who stayed hidden could only watch from a distance, trembling.
"Now there's no one left to interrupt us, Ben Tennyson," Kevin said, cracking his knuckles with a grin.
Four Arms pointed at him, voice firm. "You really are hopeless, Kevin. Keep this up, and you'll never get a girlfriend."
That struck a nerve.
"Shut up!" Kevin snarled, yanking a lamppost from the sidewalk and swinging it like a club.
Four Arms caught it mid-swing and snapped it clean in half with one strike. He roared and charged forward, ready to brawl.
Beep! Beep! Beep!
Suddenly, the Omnitrix symbol on his massive arm began flashing.
"Oh no—"
A burst of red light engulfed him, and in an instant, Four Arms reverted back into Ben's human form...
