[the-omnitrix-gem]

Im just speaking the truth, i can only barely trust rook,kevin and gwen and that's because i have issues with trusting people.

@mechanic-steeb continuation

[mechanic-steeb]

Fair.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Anyway i guess were waiting for trix and my gem to wake up now, hey if you guys are gonna follow you might as well help me clean my room in phantoms tower.

*he said calling out to the 4 people still following him*

[mechanic-steeb]

They’re.. persistent..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

They are and while thats admirable right now it's just a gateway for me to get some cheap and or free labor.

*he was whispering all this to gear so. No-one else heard him.*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he nodded in agreement*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*when they got back to the apartment codon finally started speaking to them*

Okay here's how this is gonna work,while me and gear leave to do some shopping you 4 are gonna clean this room and if it's clean when we get back I'll pay you guy's and we'll order pizza sound fair?

*the room was incredibly messy stained with blood and whatever else and filled with empty bottles of pai. Pills and fountain water, but me never the less they agreed*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

* a portal opened up on the beach and 4 figures came landed on the ground 3 looked human and one almost looked like a humanoid cat in armor*

@mechanic-steeb (or @corvid-steven whichever you prefer) @thebrothersphineasandferb @bright-steven @purple-steven

[mechanic-steeb]

*Gear saw the portal and approached*

Hello? Who're you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*one of the humans a girl with somewhat long orange hair looked at gear with a look of shock*

Steven?

*she sounded shocked but also hopeful at gear*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Oh yeah. I haven't heard that name in a long time. Do I know you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Hold on gwen.

* the second human a muscular guy with somewhat long raven black hair said as he was looking at you*

This isn't our guy, he might have some features similar to them but the skin and hair are off he looks allot like what steven used to look like.

*that seemed to make the girl who was now known as gwen look over you again and look away in realization*

[mechanic-steeb]

Who are you looking for, if I may ask?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

He's about the same height as you curly pink hair, sickly look, pink skin black eyes, grey hoodie, ring any bells?

*the black haired stranger asked*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh yeah, Codon.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

That's what he's calling himself now?

Wait do you know where he is?

[mechanic-steeb]

First off, why are you asking for him?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*this time the humanoid cat in armor spoke out*

We've been trying to help him for years now, and when we found him, he disappeared and we couldn't find him for the better part of an entire year.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Well, I think he lives in a tower with a few others. Shall I take you to him?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

That would be most appreciated.

Yes please lead the way

Lead the way look a like

*gwen hit his chest and said kevin in a scolding tone indicated that kevin must have been his name*

[mechanic-steeb]

Alright.

*he led them towards the tower*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*since they were at the beach the walk to the tower was quick*

[mechanic-steeb]

This is it. The tower.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*they looked shocked*

How did we not see this.

[mechanic-steeb]

Dunno. I'm not convinced it's entirely here..

[the-phantom-gems]

Your quite right about that my friend.

*phantom in his human form said right behind them making everyone jump*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Oh, Phantom. Hi. We're looking for Codon.

[the-phantom-gems]

His room is upstairs 3rd room on your right, but I'd say be careful. He's having one of those episodes again.

[mechanic-steeb]

Ok, we will. C'mon.

*he followed his instructions to Codon's room, knocking*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*there was no response*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he knocked again*

Codon? It's me, Gear. Some people want to meet you.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

* a weak coughing was heard from the other side of the door and the shuffling of feet was also heard coming to the door*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he waited patiently*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*a few minutes later the door opened up and codon answered , he looked like he just got out of bed as he was in some pj's his hair was a wreck and most surprising were his glazed over eyes, empty smile amd bright green circuit lines on his cheek which caused the others behind gear to either gasp or look away in what seemed to be anger or guilt*

[mechanic-steeb]

*Gear was oblivious to the others*

Hi, sorry yo wake you. But some people wanted to meet you.

*he stepped aside to give them a good look at him*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*as he gazed at the strangers his eyes seemed to become clear his hazy empty smile becoming a tight frown, as he very quickly shut and locked the door*

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon? Is something wrong?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

W-what are those he-he heathen-monsters doing outside of my d-door-cell

*his voice was not only venomous but glitching certain words seemed to overlap with other words*

[mechanic-steeb]

I don't know. They came out of a portal and said they wanted to see you.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

W-well then tell them to politely leave-get the hell out of my part of the tower, i have no business with them-i have no business with life destroyers

*despite the glitchy overlap they all heard what he was saying quite clearly*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he turned to the others*

Sorry. Guess he doesn't want to see you. Shall we leave?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*gwen looked visibly concerned*

I-i don't know did you see the lines on his face or his very sickly demeanour he needs our help more then ever.

[mechanic-steeb]

I dunno. But if he doesn't want to talk to you, y'all should probably leave.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the final person who never announced his name a guy with brown hair and a green jacket knocked on the door*

Steven, trix open the door.

*the armour wearing individual said 'ben' in. Warning tone of voice, and gear thought for a moment that that name specifically sounded very familiar*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he waited for a response, curious*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the door was practically ripped off it's hinges as the now named ben was dragged into the room and the door was shut again*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Codon? Trix?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*all 4 people could practically feel the rage emanating from inside the locked room*

S-so, b-back ag-ag-again.

*whatever was happening to codon was making his speech glitch even more so then before*

What are you two here for out to ruin another Steven's life

*trix who was always the level headed person of codons little group growled the word out like he was struggling to hide his anger*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Do any of you know what's going on?

*he turned to the others*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*all 3 of them looked away in either shame guilt or anger*

Please boy's me and omni only want to-

*whatever ben was saying was cut off as a large thud sounded out when something hit the door*

Sh-sh-shut your mouth.

*it was becoming rather apparent that something was very very wrong with codon*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he decided to hear out what was happening*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Yo-yo-you have no right to even try to s-s-lie about want to help me after what you did to m-me-us

S-steven calm down your not sounding very good at all your glitching terribly

*a new voice one that sounded like a women came from the other side of the room*

[mechanic-steeb]

...?

*he leaned in closer, pressing his ear against the door*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

D-don't act like you care all of sudden o-omni, i-if you did y-y-you would have s-s-stopped b-ben all t-th-those years ago.

*to gear he almost sounded tired*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh,..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

E-e-even n-n you c-contin to torture m.

*now hos voice was almost unintelligible as of it was slowly being suppressed with something*

Okay maybe there right about this one codon you need to rest

*trix chimed in this time sounding very concerned*

[mechanic-steeb]

. . .

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*a somewhat audible static reverberated from the locked room as the door swung open and ben was forced out*

And stay out of our room.

*the shadowy visage of trix slammed the door shut and locked it, footsteps indicating codon was forced back to bed*

[mechanic-steeb]

What happened?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Allot of screaming, he hit me allot and then trix threw me out when he said steven needed rest.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Do you know why?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

It's as if me just being there made whatever was happening to him worse.

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

There were allot of sparks, I'm honestly pretty worried right now.

[mechanic-steeb]

That's understandable.. If I may, what's your relation to each other?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

I was his, teacher in the ways of the omnitrix but i ended up making a terrible mistake one me and omni need to fix.

Well that's putting it mildly

Sorry ben but kevin's right.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Why's he mad at you, then?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Because i was the reason he became what he is right now

*ben looks away in nothing but guilt and shame*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

To be honest you had a much more tame reaction then we had

[mechanic-steeb]

I guess I didn't have the full, fresh experience.

*he shrugged*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Consider yourself lucky

*the cat was now knocking on the door*

Steven please your not feeling well, let us help you

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon, please.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*this time kevin made it to the door and in one fell swoop punched the door to shreds*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? What was that for?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Because this is going nowhere, and he only seems to listen to me like this.

*he walked into the room*

[mechanic-steeb]

Mm..

*he followed, peeking his head in*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the apartment room was a mess, blood stains both red and green carpeted quite a bit of the area, empty bottles of pain pills and fountain water littered an area in the corner and kevin came out holding the apartments sickly occupant who looked to be trying to argue but couldn't*

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon? Are you alright?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*no sound came from his mouth, he clearly was not fine at all*

[mechanic-steeb]

..Trix, what about you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

I'm trying to stop my best friend from dying and besides you I'm surrounded by people i hate what do you think?

[mechanic-steeb]

Fine. Fair enough.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the sound of a dial up was heard from the person in kevins arms there eyes half lidded with glitching dull green and pink lines of code in his vision*

[mechanic-steeb]

That's not good.. Do any of you k ow how to fix this?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*ben wordlessy held peices of pink gemstone and broken metal pieces as well*

Oh? So you did keep those after all.

[mechanic-steeb]

Wait.. Did they come out?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

No, those were the pieces of codons gem and my original body before he broke both of them

*now trix looked like he was about to start glitching before he started to calm down*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh.. I'm sorry.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the dial up sound got even worse and his eye's started drooping shut*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he turned to the Gwen and the others*

Well, why are we here? You wanted him, and you got him. What now?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

We take him to the fountain those crystal gems talk about, and try to heal his gem and repair the watch.

[mechanic-steeb]

Makes sense. Let's go, then.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the trip to the fountain was quiet*

[mechanic-steeb]

So... Any special preparations or are you just gonna chuck him in there? I don't know much about that watch. It's beyond me.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*That was when the cat pulled out various syringes and ivs and even a heart monitor, gwen made a bed out of pink energy and codon was placed on it, before kevin lifted his shirt up and yanked out his already cracked gem and that caused codon and trix to scream in shock and pain*

[mechanic-steeb]

Ok, we're doing this.

*he took a step back as to not get in anyone's way*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*That was when the needle was injected into his arm making him stop screaming, they insirted the i.v and the drip had fountain water inside, but when they removed the omnitrix portion of the gem the entire remains of the cracked up diamond shattered in gwens hands*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he simply backed up, not wanting to get in the way*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*it would be a couple of hours and some very close calls before both a reddish pink wrist watch and a bright pink diamond were brand new and damage free*

[mechanic-steeb]

... Is that it?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Yeah that should be it.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mm.. How're you feeling Codon, Trix?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*they didn't respond as they were both asleep, the watch seemingly fused to his wrist now*

[mechanic-steeb]

Ah.. I guess it's probably easier to perform surgery on an asleep person..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Now all we do is wait

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Guess so.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*codon seemed to groan softly*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he stood next to his laying body*

Hey. Are you alright?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*His once pale pink skin became pale white one more and as he opened his eyes gear could see his darker pink eye's*

W-where am?

[mechanic-steeb]

... What? Did you jist forget everything that jist happened?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

W-wait, that voice.

*he slowly got up and his eyes widened at the sight of his fully restored gem in bens hand*

Get your hands off my gem

*his hand shot out and a hand made of pink energy grabbed it from the very surprised brunette, the shade of pink was somewhat lighter but it felt like the energy he was still underneath*

[mechanic-steeb]

Well, that escalated.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*He hugged the gem for dear life as if nothing else mattered to him*

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon? Are you alright?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

My body is incredibly weak and i just saw my gem in the hands of the last person i even wanted to think about, how do you think i feel?

[mechanic-steeb]

Ya... You're right. Sorry.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

It's alright, this is just a very stressful time.

[mechanic-steeb]

Indeed..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*he sighs as he holds the gem in his hands it still hasn't reformed yet*

[mechanic-steeb]

So.. Do you need anything?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

To get away from the two people i hate more then that scarf wearing kevin.

*his eyes still held quite a bit of anger, he looked tired but angry*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh. Should we leave then?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*despite the protests to stay he said yes to leaving*

[mechanic-steeb]

C’mon.

*he led him away from the other s*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

I mean come on what did you expect i only tolerate like 3 people from your whole group.

*was his response to the group*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

* a portal opened up on the beach and 4 figures came landed on the ground 3 looked human and one almost looked like a humanoid cat in armor*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

No, those were the pieces of codons gem and my original body before he broke both of them

*now trix looked like he was about to start glitching before he started to calm down*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh.. I'm sorry.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the dial up sound got even worse and his eye's started drooping shut*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he turned to the Gwen and the others*

Well, why are we here? You wanted him, and you got him. What now?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

We take him to the fountain those crystal gems talk about, and try to heal his gem and repair the watch.

[mechanic-steeb]

Makes sense. Let's go, then.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the trip to the fountain was quiet*

[mechanic-steeb]

So... Any special preparations or are you just gonna chuck him in there? I don't know much about that watch. It's beyond me.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*That was when the cat pulled out various syringes and ivs and even a heart monitor, gwen made a bed out of pink energy and codon was placed on it, before kevin lifted his shirt up and yanked out his already cracked gem and that caused codon and trix to scream in shock and pain*

[mechanic-steeb]

Ok, we're doing this.

*he took a step back as to not get in anyone's way*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*That was when the needle was injected into his arm making him stop screaming, they insirted the i.v and the drip had fountain water inside, but when they removed the omnitrix portion of the gem the entire remains of the cracked up diamond shattered in gwens hands*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he simply backed up, not wanting to get in the way*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*it would be a couple of hours and some very close calls before both a reddish pink wrist watch and a bright pink diamond were brand new and damage free*

[mechanic-steeb]

... Is that it?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Yeah that should be it.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mm.. How're you feeling Codon, Trix?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*they didn't respond as they were both asleep, the watch seemingly fused to his wrist now*

[mechanic-steeb]

Ah.. I guess it's probably easier to perform surgery on an asleep person..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Now all we do is wait

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Guess so.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*codon seemed to groan softly*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he stood next to his laying body*

Hey. Are you alright?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*His once pale pink skin became pale white one more and as he opened his eyes gear could see his darker pink eye's*

W-where am?

[mechanic-steeb]

... What? Did you jist forget everything that jist happened?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

W-wait, that voice.

*he slowly got up and his eyes widened at the sight of his fully restored gem in bens hand*

Get your hands off my gem

*his hand shot out and a hand made of pink energy grabbed it from the very surprised brunette, the shade of pink was somewhat lighter but it felt like the energy he was still underneath*

[mechanic-steeb]

Well, that escalated.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*He hugged the gem for dear life as if nothing else mattered to him*

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon? Are you alright?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

My body is incredibly weak and i just saw my gem in the hands of the last person i even wanted to think about, how do you think i feel?

[mechanic-steeb]

Ya... You're right. Sorry.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

It's alright, this is just a very stressful time.

[mechanic-steeb]

Indeed..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*he sighs as he holds the gem in his hands it still hasn't reformed yet*

[mechanic-steeb]

So.. Do you need anything?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

To get away from the two people i hate more then that scarf wearing kevin.

*his eyes still held quite a bit of anger, he looked tired but angry*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh. Should we leave then?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*despite the protests to stay he said yes to leaving*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

* a portal opened up on the beach and 4 figures came landed on the ground 3 looked human and one almost looked like a humanoid cat in armor*

@mechanic-steeb (or @corvid-steven whichever you prefer) @thebrothersphineasandferb @bright-steven @purple-steven

[mechanic-steeb]

*Gear saw the portal and approached*

Hello? Who're you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*one of the humans a girl with somewhat long orange hair looked at gear with a look of shock*

Steven?

*she sounded shocked but also hopeful at gear*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Oh yeah. I haven't heard that name in a long time. Do I know you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Hold on gwen.

* the second human a muscular guy with somewhat long raven black hair said as he was looking at you*

This isn't our guy, he might have some features similar to them but the skin and hair are off he looks allot like what steven used to look like.

*that seemed to make the girl who was now known as gwen look over you again and look away in realization*

[mechanic-steeb]

Who are you looking for, if I may ask?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

He's about the same height as you curly pink hair, sickly look, pink skin black eyes, grey hoodie, ring any bells?

*the black haired stranger asked*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh yeah, Codon.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

That's what he's calling himself now?

Wait do you know where he is?

[mechanic-steeb]

First off, why are you asking for him?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*this time the humanoid cat in armor spoke out*

We've been trying to help him for years now, and when we found him, he disappeared and we couldn't find him for the better part of an entire year.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Well, I think he lives in a tower with a few others. Shall I take you to him?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

That would be most appreciated.

Yes please lead the way

Lead the way look a like

*gwen hit his chest and said kevin in a scolding tone indicated that kevin must have been his name*

[mechanic-steeb]

Alright.

*he led them towards the tower*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*since they were at the beach the walk to the tower was quick*

[mechanic-steeb]

This is it. The tower.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*they looked shocked*

How did we not see this.

[mechanic-steeb]

Dunno. I'm not convinced it's entirely here..

[the-phantom-gems]

Your quite right about that my friend.

*phantom in his human form said right behind them making everyone jump*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Oh, Phantom. Hi. We're looking for Codon.

[the-phantom-gems]

His room is upstairs 3rd room on your right, but I'd say be careful. He's having one of those episodes again.

[mechanic-steeb]

Ok, we will. C'mon.

*he followed his instructions to Codon's room, knocking*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*there was no response*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he knocked again*

Codon? It's me, Gear. Some people want to meet you.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

* a weak coughing was heard from the other side of the door and the shuffling of feet was also heard coming to the door*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he waited patiently*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*a few minutes later the door opened up and codon answered , he looked like he just got out of bed as he was in some pj's his hair was a wreck and most surprising were his glazed over eyes, empty smile amd bright green circuit lines on his cheek which caused the others behind gear to either gasp or look away in what seemed to be anger or guilt*

[mechanic-steeb]

*Gear was oblivious to the others*

Hi, sorry yo wake you. But some people wanted to meet you.

*he stepped aside to give them a good look at him*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*as he gazed at the strangers his eyes seemed to become clear his hazy empty smile becoming a tight frown, as he very quickly shut and locked the door*

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon? Is something wrong?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

W-what are those he-he heathen-monsters doing outside of my d-door-cell

*his voice was not only venomous but glitching certain words seemed to overlap with other words*

[mechanic-steeb]

I don't know. They came out of a portal and said they wanted to see you.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

W-well then tell them to politely leave-get the hell out of my part of the tower, i have no business with them-i have no business with life destroyers

*despite the glitchy overlap they all heard what he was saying quite clearly*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he turned to the others*

Sorry. Guess he doesn't want to see you. Shall we leave?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*gwen looked visibly concerned*

I-i don't know did you see the lines on his face or his very sickly demeanour he needs our help more then ever.

[mechanic-steeb]

I dunno. But if he doesn't want to talk to you, y'all should probably leave.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the final person who never announced his name a guy with brown hair and a green jacket knocked on the door*

Steven, trix open the door.

*the armour wearing individual said 'ben' in. Warning tone of voice, and gear thought for a moment that that name specifically sounded very familiar*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he waited for a response, curious*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the door was practically ripped off it's hinges as the now named ben was dragged into the room and the door was shut again*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Codon? Trix?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*all 4 people could practically feel the rage emanating from inside the locked room*

S-so, b-back ag-ag-again.

*whatever was happening to codon was making his speech glitch even more so then before*

What are you two here for out to ruin another Steven's life

*trix who was always the level headed person of codons little group growled the word out like he was struggling to hide his anger*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Do any of you know what's going on?

*he turned to the others*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*all 3 of them looked away in either shame guilt or anger*

Please boy's me and omni only want to-

*whatever ben was saying was cut off as a large thud sounded out when something hit the door*

Sh-sh-shut your mouth.

*it was becoming rather apparent that something was very very wrong with codon*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he decided to hear out what was happening*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Yo-yo-you have no right to even try to s-s-lie about want to help me after what you did to m-me-us

S-steven calm down your not sounding very good at all your glitching terribly

*a new voice one that sounded like a women came from the other side of the room*

[mechanic-steeb]

...?

*he leaned in closer, pressing his ear against the door*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

D-don't act like you care all of sudden o-omni, i-if you did y-y-you would have s-s-stopped b-ben all t-th-those years ago.

*to gear he almost sounded tired*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh,..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

E-e-even n-n you c-contin to torture m.

*now hos voice was almost unintelligible as of it was slowly being suppressed with something*

Okay maybe there right about this one codon you need to rest

*trix chimed in this time sounding very concerned*

[mechanic-steeb]

. . .

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*a somewhat audible static reverberated from the locked room as the door swung open and ben was forced out*

And stay out of our room.

*the shadowy visage of trix slammed the door shut and locked it, footsteps indicating codon was forced back to bed*

[mechanic-steeb]

What happened?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Allot of screaming, he hit me allot and then trix threw me out when he said steven needed rest.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Do you know why?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

It's as if me just being there made whatever was happening to him worse.

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

There were allot of sparks, I'm honestly pretty worried right now.

[mechanic-steeb]

That's understandable.. If I may, what's your relation to each other?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

I was his, teacher in the ways of the omnitrix but i ended up making a terrible mistake one me and omni need to fix.

Well that's putting it mildly

Sorry ben but kevin's right.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Why's he mad at you, then?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Because i was the reason he became what he is right now

*ben looks away in nothing but guilt and shame*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

To be honest you had a much more tame reaction then we had

[mechanic-steeb]

I guess I didn't have the full, fresh experience.

*he shrugged*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Consider yourself lucky

*the cat was now knocking on the door*

Steven please your not feeling well, let us help you

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon, please.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*this time kevin made it to the door and in one fell swoop punched the door to shreds*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? What was that for?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Because this is going nowhere, and he only seems to listen to me like this.

*he walked into the room*

[mechanic-steeb]

Mm..

*he followed, peeking his head in*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the apartment room was a mess, blood stains both red and green carpeted quite a bit of the area, empty bottles of pain pills and fountain water littered an area in the corner and kevin came out holding the apartments sickly occupant who looked to be trying to argue but couldn't*

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon? Are you alright?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*no sound came from his mouth, he clearly was not fine at all*

[mechanic-steeb]

..Trix, what about you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

I'm trying to stop my best friend from dying and besides you I'm surrounded by people i hate what do you think?

[mechanic-steeb]

Fine. Fair enough.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the sound of a dial up was heard from the person in kevins arms there eyes half lidded with glitching dull green and pink lines of code in his vision*

[mechanic-steeb]

That's not good.. Do any of you k ow how to fix this?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*ben wordlessy held peices of pink gemstone and broken metal pieces as well*

Oh? So you did keep those after all.

[mechanic-steeb]

Wait.. Did they come out?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

No, those were the pieces of codons gem and my original body before he broke both of them

*now trix looked like he was about to start glitching before he started to calm down*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh.. I'm sorry.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the dial up sound got even worse and his eye's started drooping shut*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he simply backed up, not wanting to get in the way*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*it would be a couple of hours and some very close calls before both a reddish pink wrist watch and a bright pink diamond were brand new and damage free*

[mechanic-steeb]

... Is that it?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Yeah that should be it.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mm.. How're you feeling Codon, Trix?

I'm trying to stop my best friend from dying and besides you I'm surrounded by people i hate what do you think?

[mechanic-steeb]

Fine. Fair enough.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the sound of a dial up was heard from the person in kevins arms there eyes half lidded with glitching dull green and pink lines of code in his vision*

[mechanic-steeb]

That's not good.. Do any of you k ow how to fix this?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*ben wordlessy held peices of pink gemstone and broken metal pieces as well*

Oh? So you did keep those after all.

[mechanic-steeb]

Wait.. Did they come out?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

No, those were the pieces of codons gem and my original body before he broke both of them

*now trix looked like he was about to start glitching before he started to calm down*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh.. I'm sorry.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the dial up sound got even worse and his eye's started drooping shut*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he turned to the Gwen and the others*

Well, why are we here? You wanted him, and you got him. What now?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

We take him to the fountain those crystal gems talk about, and try to heal his gem and repair the watch.

[mechanic-steeb]

Makes sense. Let's go, then.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the trip to the fountain was quiet*

[mechanic-steeb]

So... Any special preparations or are you just gonna chuck him in there? I don't know much about that watch. It's beyond me.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*That was when the cat pulled out various syringes and ivs and even a heart monitor, gwen made a bed out of pink energy and codon was placed on it, before kevin lifted his shirt up and yanked out his already cracked gem and that caused codon and trix to scream in shock and pain*

[mechanic-steeb]

Ok, we're doing this.

*he took a step back as to not get in anyone's way*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*That was when the needle was injected into his arm making him stop screaming, they insirted the i.v and the drip had fountain water inside, but when they removed the omnitrix portion of the gem the entire remains of the cracked up diamond shattered in gwens hands*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he simply backed up, not wanting to get in the way*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*it would be a couple of hours and some very close calls before both a reddish pink wrist watch and a bright pink diamond were brand new and damage free*

[mechanic-steeb]

... Is that it?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Yeah that should be it.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mm.. How're you feeling Codon, Trix?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*they didn't respond as they were both asleep, the watch seemingly fused to his wrist now*

[mechanic-steeb]

Ah.. I guess it's probably easier to perform surgery on an asleep person..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Now all we do is wait

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Guess so.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*codon seemed to groan softly*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he stood next to his laying body*

Hey. Are you alright?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*His once pale pink skin became pale white one more and as he opened his eyes gear could see his darker pink eye's*

W-where am?

[mechanic-steeb]

... What? Did you jist forget everything that jist happened?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

W-wait, that voice.

*he slowly got up and his eyes widened at the sight of his fully restored gem in bens hand*

Get your hands off my gem

*his hand shot out and a hand made of pink energy grabbed it from the very surprised brunette, the shade of pink was somewhat lighter but it felt like the energy he was still underneath*

[mechanic-steeb]

Well, that escalated.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*He hugged the gem for dear life as if nothing else mattered to him*

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon? Are you alright?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

My body is incredibly weak and i just saw my gem in the hands of the last person i even wanted to think about, how do you think i feel?

[mechanic-steeb]

Ya... You're right. Sorry.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

It's alright, this is just a very stressful time.

[mechanic-steeb]

Indeed..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*he sighs as he holds the gem in his hands it still hasn't reformed yet*

[mechanic-steeb]

So.. Do you need anything?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

To get away from the two people i hate more then that scarf wearing kevin.

*his eyes still held quite a bit of anger, he looked tired but angry*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

* a portal opened up on the beach and 4 figures came landed on the ground 3 looked human and one almost looked like a humanoid cat in armor*

@mechanic-steeb (or @corvid-steven whichever you prefer) @thebrothersphineasandferb @bright-steven @purple-steven

[mechanic-steeb]

*Gear saw the portal and approached*

Hello? Who're you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*one of the humans a girl with somewhat long orange hair looked at gear with a look of shock*

Steven?

*she sounded shocked but also hopeful at gear*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Oh yeah. I haven't heard that name in a long time. Do I know you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Hold on gwen.

* the second human a muscular guy with somewhat long raven black hair said as he was looking at you*

This isn't our guy, he might have some features similar to them but the skin and hair are off he looks allot like what steven used to look like.

*that seemed to make the girl who was now known as gwen look over you again and look away in realization*

[mechanic-steeb]

Who are you looking for, if I may ask?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

He's about the same height as you curly pink hair, sickly look, pink skin black eyes, grey hoodie, ring any bells?

*the black haired stranger asked*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh yeah, Codon.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

That's what he's calling himself now?

Wait do you know where he is?

[mechanic-steeb]

First off, why are you asking for him?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*this time the humanoid cat in armor spoke out*

We've been trying to help him for years now, and when we found him, he disappeared and we couldn't find him for the better part of an entire year.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Well, I think he lives in a tower with a few others. Shall I take you to him?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

That would be most appreciated.

Yes please lead the way

Lead the way look a like

*gwen hit his chest and said kevin in a scolding tone indicated that kevin must have been his name*

[mechanic-steeb]

Alright.

*he led them towards the tower*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*since they were at the beach the walk to the tower was quick*

[mechanic-steeb]

This is it. The tower.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*they looked shocked*

How did we not see this.

[mechanic-steeb]

Dunno. I'm not convinced it's entirely here..

[the-phantom-gems]

Your quite right about that my friend.

*phantom in his human form said right behind them making everyone jump*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Oh, Phantom. Hi. We're looking for Codon.

[the-phantom-gems]

His room is upstairs 3rd room on your right, but I'd say be careful. He's having one of those episodes again.

[mechanic-steeb]

Ok, we will. C'mon.

*he followed his instructions to Codon's room, knocking*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*there was no response*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he knocked again*

Codon? It's me, Gear. Some people want to meet you.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

* a weak coughing was heard from the other side of the door and the shuffling of feet was also heard coming to the door*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he waited patiently*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*a few minutes later the door opened up and codon answered , he looked like he just got out of bed as he was in some pj's his hair was a wreck and most surprising were his glazed over eyes, empty smile amd bright green circuit lines on his cheek which caused the others behind gear to either gasp or look away in what seemed to be anger or guilt*

[mechanic-steeb]

*Gear was oblivious to the others*

Hi, sorry yo wake you. But some people wanted to meet you.

*he stepped aside to give them a good look at him*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*as he gazed at the strangers his eyes seemed to become clear his hazy empty smile becoming a tight frown, as he very quickly shut and locked the door*

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon? Is something wrong?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

W-what are those he-he heathen-monsters doing outside of my d-door-cell

*his voice was not only venomous but glitching certain words seemed to overlap with other words*

[mechanic-steeb]

I don't know. They came out of a portal and said they wanted to see you.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

W-well then tell them to politely leave-get the hell out of my part of the tower, i have no business with them-i have no business with life destroyers

*despite the glitchy overlap they all heard what he was saying quite clearly*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he turned to the others*

Sorry. Guess he doesn't want to see you. Shall we leave?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*gwen looked visibly concerned*

I-i don't know did you see the lines on his face or his very sickly demeanour he needs our help more then ever.

[mechanic-steeb]

I dunno. But if he doesn't want to talk to you, y'all should probably leave.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the final person who never announced his name a guy with brown hair and a green jacket knocked on the door*

Steven, trix open the door.

*the armour wearing individual said 'ben' in. Warning tone of voice, and gear thought for a moment that that name specifically sounded very familiar*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he waited for a response, curious*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the door was practically ripped off it's hinges as the now named ben was dragged into the room and the door was shut again*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Codon? Trix?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*all 4 people could practically feel the rage emanating from inside the locked room*

S-so, b-back ag-ag-again.

*whatever was happening to codon was making his speech glitch even more so then before*

What are you two here for out to ruin another Steven's life

*trix who was always the level headed person of codons little group growled the word out like he was struggling to hide his anger*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Do any of you know what's going on?

*he turned to the others*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*all 3 of them looked away in either shame guilt or anger*

Please boy's me and omni only want to-

*whatever ben was saying was cut off as a large thud sounded out when something hit the door*

Sh-sh-shut your mouth.

*it was becoming rather apparent that something was very very wrong with codon*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he decided to hear out what was happening*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Yo-yo-you have no right to even try to s-s-lie about want to help me after what you did to m-me-us

S-steven calm down your not sounding very good at all your glitching terribly

*a new voice one that sounded like a women came from the other side of the room*

[mechanic-steeb]

...?

*he leaned in closer, pressing his ear against the door*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

D-don't act like you care all of sudden o-omni, i-if you did y-y-you would have s-s-stopped b-ben all t-th-those years ago.

*to gear he almost sounded tired*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh,..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

E-e-even n-n you c-contin to torture m.

*now hos voice was almost unintelligible as of it was slowly being suppressed with something*

Okay maybe there right about this one codon you need to rest

*trix chimed in this time sounding very concerned*

[mechanic-steeb]

. . .

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*a somewhat audible static reverberated from the locked room as the door swung open and ben was forced out*

And stay out of our room.

*the shadowy visage of trix slammed the door shut and locked it, footsteps indicating codon was forced back to bed*

[mechanic-steeb]

What happened?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Allot of screaming, he hit me allot and then trix threw me out when he said steven needed rest.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Do you know why?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

It's as if me just being there made whatever was happening to him worse.

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

There were allot of sparks, I'm honestly pretty worried right now.

[mechanic-steeb]

That's understandable.. If I may, what's your relation to each other?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

I was his, teacher in the ways of the omnitrix but i ended up making a terrible mistake one me and omni need to fix.

Well that's putting it mildly

Sorry ben but kevin's right.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Why's he mad at you, then?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Because i was the reason he became what he is right now

*ben looks away in nothing but guilt and shame*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

To be honest you had a much more tame reaction then we had

[mechanic-steeb]

I guess I didn't have the full, fresh experience.

*he shrugged*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Consider yourself lucky

*the cat was now knocking on the door*

Steven please your not feeling well, let us help you

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon, please.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*this time kevin made it to the door and in one fell swoop punched the door to shreds*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? What was that for?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Because this is going nowhere, and he only seems to listen to me like this.

*he walked into the room*

[mechanic-steeb]

Mm..

*he followed, peeking his head in*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the apartment room was a mess, blood stains both red and green carpeted quite a bit of the area, empty bottles of pain pills and fountain water littered an area in the corner and kevin came out holding the apartments sickly occupant who looked to be trying to argue but couldn't*

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon? Are you alright?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*no sound came from his mouth, he clearly was not fine at all*

[mechanic-steeb]

..Trix, what about you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

I'm trying to stop my best friend from dying and besides you I'm surrounded by people i hate what do you think?

[mechanic-steeb]

Fine. Fair enough.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the sound of a dial up was heard from the person in kevins arms there eyes half lidded with glitching dull green and pink lines of code in his vision*

[mechanic-steeb]

That's not good.. Do any of you k ow how to fix this?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon? Are you alright?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*no sound came from his mouth, he clearly was not fine at all*

[mechanic-steeb]

..Trix, what about you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

I'm trying to stop my best friend from dying and besides you I'm surrounded by people i hate what do you think?

[mechanic-steeb]

Fine. Fair enough.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the sound of a dial up was heard from the person in kevins arms there eyes half lidded with glitching dull green and pink lines of code in his vision*

[mechanic-steeb]

That's not good.. Do any of you k ow how to fix this?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*ben wordlessy held peices of pink gemstone and broken metal pieces as well*

Oh? So you did keep those after all.

[mechanic-steeb]

Wait.. Did they come out?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

No, those were the pieces of codons gem and my original body before he broke both of them

*now trix looked like he was about to start glitching before he started to calm down*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh.. I'm sorry.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the dial up sound got even worse and his eye's started drooping shut*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he turned to the Gwen and the others*

Well, why are we here? You wanted him, and you got him. What now?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

We take him to the fountain those crystal gems talk about, and try to heal his gem and repair the watch.

[mechanic-steeb]

Makes sense. Let's go, then.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the trip to the fountain was quiet*

[mechanic-steeb]

So... Any special preparations or are you just gonna chuck him in there? I don't know much about that watch. It's beyond me.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*That was when the cat pulled out various syringes and ivs and even a heart monitor, gwen made a bed out of pink energy and codon was placed on it, before kevin lifted his shirt up and yanked out his already cracked gem and that caused codon and trix to scream in shock and pain*

[mechanic-steeb]

Ok, we're doing this.

*he took a step back as to not get in anyone's way*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*That was when the needle was injected into his arm making him stop screaming, they insirted the i.v and the drip had fountain water inside, but when they removed the omnitrix portion of the gem the entire remains of the cracked up diamond shattered in gwens hands*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he simply backed up, not wanting to get in the way*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*it would be a couple of hours and some very close calls before both a reddish pink wrist watch and a bright pink diamond were brand new and damage free*

[mechanic-steeb]

... Is that it?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Yeah that should be it.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mm.. How're you feeling Codon, Trix?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*they didn't respond as they were both asleep, the watch seemingly fused to his wrist now*

[mechanic-steeb]

Ah.. I guess it's probably easier to perform surgery on an asleep person..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Now all we do is wait

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Guess so.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*codon seemed to groan softly*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he stood next to his laying body*

Hey. Are you alright?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*His once pale pink skin became pale white one more and as he opened his eyes gear could see his darker pink eye's*

W-where am?

[mechanic-steeb]

... What? Did you jist forget everything that jist happened?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

W-wait, that voice.

*he slowly got up and his eyes widened at the sight of his fully restored gem in bens hand*

Get your hands off my gem

*his hand shot out and a hand made of pink energy grabbed it from the very surprised brunette, the shade of pink was somewhat lighter but it felt like the energy he was still underneath*

[mechanic-steeb]

Well, that escalated.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*He hugged the gem for dear life as if nothing else mattered to him*

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon? Are you alright?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

My body is incredibly weak and i just saw my gem in the hands of the last person i even wanted to think about, how do you think i feel?

[mechanic-steeb]

Ya... You're right. Sorry.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

It's alright, this is just a very stressful time.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

* a portal opened up on the beach and 4 figures came landed on the ground 3 looked human and one almost looked like a humanoid cat in armor*

@mechanic-steeb (or @corvid-steven whichever you prefer) @thebrothersphineasandferb @bright-steven @purple-steven

[mechanic-steeb]

*Gear saw the portal and approached*

Hello? Who're you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*one of the humans a girl with somewhat long orange hair looked at gear with a look of shock*

Steven?

*she sounded shocked but also hopeful at gear*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Oh yeah. I haven't heard that name in a long time. Do I know you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Hold on gwen.

* the second human a muscular guy with somewhat long raven black hair said as he was looking at you*

This isn't our guy, he might have some features similar to them but the skin and hair are off he looks allot like what steven used to look like.

*that seemed to make the girl who was now known as gwen look over you again and look away in realization*

[mechanic-steeb]

Who are you looking for, if I may ask?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

He's about the same height as you curly pink hair, sickly look, pink skin black eyes, grey hoodie, ring any bells?

*the black haired stranger asked*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh yeah, Codon.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

That's what he's calling himself now?

Wait do you know where he is?

[mechanic-steeb]

First off, why are you asking for him?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*this time the humanoid cat in armor spoke out*

We've been trying to help him for years now, and when we found him, he disappeared and we couldn't find him for the better part of an entire year.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Well, I think he lives in a tower with a few others. Shall I take you to him?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

That would be most appreciated.

Yes please lead the way

Lead the way look a like

*gwen hit his chest and said kevin in a scolding tone indicated that kevin must have been his name*

[mechanic-steeb]

Alright.

*he led them towards the tower*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*since they were at the beach the walk to the tower was quick*

[mechanic-steeb]

This is it. The tower.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*they looked shocked*

How did we not see this.

[mechanic-steeb]

Dunno. I'm not convinced it's entirely here..

[the-phantom-gems]

Your quite right about that my friend.

*phantom in his human form said right behind them making everyone jump*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Oh, Phantom. Hi. We're looking for Codon.

[the-phantom-gems]

His room is upstairs 3rd room on your right, but I'd say be careful. He's having one of those episodes again.

[mechanic-steeb]

Ok, we will. C'mon.

*he followed his instructions to Codon's room, knocking*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*there was no response*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he knocked again*

Codon? It's me, Gear. Some people want to meet you.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

* a weak coughing was heard from the other side of the door and the shuffling of feet was also heard coming to the door*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he waited patiently*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*a few minutes later the door opened up and codon answered , he looked like he just got out of bed as he was in some pj's his hair was a wreck and most surprising were his glazed over eyes, empty smile amd bright green circuit lines on his cheek which caused the others behind gear to either gasp or look away in what seemed to be anger or guilt*

[mechanic-steeb]

*Gear was oblivious to the others*

Hi, sorry yo wake you. But some people wanted to meet you.

*he stepped aside to give them a good look at him*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*as he gazed at the strangers his eyes seemed to become clear his hazy empty smile becoming a tight frown, as he very quickly shut and locked the door*

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon? Is something wrong?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

W-what are those he-he heathen-monsters doing outside of my d-door-cell

*his voice was not only venomous but glitching certain words seemed to overlap with other words*

[mechanic-steeb]

I don't know. They came out of a portal and said they wanted to see you.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

W-well then tell them to politely leave-get the hell out of my part of the tower, i have no business with them-i have no business with life destroyers

*despite the glitchy overlap they all heard what he was saying quite clearly*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he turned to the others*

Sorry. Guess he doesn't want to see you. Shall we leave?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*gwen looked visibly concerned*

I-i don't know did you see the lines on his face or his very sickly demeanour he needs our help more then ever.

[mechanic-steeb]

I dunno. But if he doesn't want to talk to you, y'all should probably leave.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the final person who never announced his name a guy with brown hair and a green jacket knocked on the door*

Steven, trix open the door.

*the armour wearing individual said 'ben' in. Warning tone of voice, and gear thought for a moment that that name specifically sounded very familiar*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he waited for a response, curious*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the door was practically ripped off it's hinges as the now named ben was dragged into the room and the door was shut again*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Codon? Trix?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*all 4 people could practically feel the rage emanating from inside the locked room*

S-so, b-back ag-ag-again.

*whatever was happening to codon was making his speech glitch even more so then before*

What are you two here for out to ruin another Steven's life

*trix who was always the level headed person of codons little group growled the word out like he was struggling to hide his anger*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Do any of you know what's going on?

*he turned to the others*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*all 3 of them looked away in either shame guilt or anger*

Please boy's me and omni only want to-

*whatever ben was saying was cut off as a large thud sounded out when something hit the door*

Sh-sh-shut your mouth.

*it was becoming rather apparent that something was very very wrong with codon*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he decided to hear out what was happening*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Yo-yo-you have no right to even try to s-s-lie about want to help me after what you did to m-me-us

S-steven calm down your not sounding very good at all your glitching terribly

*a new voice one that sounded like a women came from the other side of the room*

[mechanic-steeb]

...?

*he leaned in closer, pressing his ear against the door*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

D-don't act like you care all of sudden o-omni, i-if you did y-y-you would have s-s-stopped b-ben all t-th-those years ago.

*to gear he almost sounded tired*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh,..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

E-e-even n-n you c-contin to torture m.

*now hos voice was almost unintelligible as of it was slowly being suppressed with something*

Okay maybe there right about this one codon you need to rest

*trix chimed in this time sounding very concerned*

[mechanic-steeb]

. . .

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*a somewhat audible static reverberated from the locked room as the door swung open and ben was forced out*

And stay out of our room.

*the shadowy visage of trix slammed the door shut and locked it, footsteps indicating codon was forced back to bed*

[mechanic-steeb]

What happened?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Allot of screaming, he hit me allot and then trix threw me out when he said steven needed rest.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Do you know why?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

It's as if me just being there made whatever was happening to him worse.

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

There were allot of sparks, I'm honestly pretty worried right now.

[mechanic-steeb]

That's understandable.. If I may, what's your relation to each other?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

I was his, teacher in the ways of the omnitrix but i ended up making a terrible mistake one me and omni need to fix.

Well that's putting it mildly

Sorry ben but kevin's right.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Why's he mad at you, then?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Because i was the reason he became what he is right now

*ben looks away in nothing but guilt and shame*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

To be honest you had a much more tame reaction then we had

[mechanic-steeb]

I guess I didn't have the full, fresh experience.

*he shrugged*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Consider yourself lucky

*the cat was now knocking on the door*

Steven please your not feeling well, let us help you

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon, please.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*this time kevin made it to the door and in one fell swoop punched the door to shreds*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? What was that for?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Because this is going nowhere, and he only seems to listen to me like this.

*he walked into the room*

[mechanic-steeb]

Mm..

*he followed, peeking his head in*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the apartment room was a mess, blood stains both red and green carpeted quite a bit of the area, empty bottles of pain pills and fountain water littered an area in the corner and kevin came out holding the apartments sickly occupant who looked to be trying to argue but couldn't*

I'm trying to stop my best friend from dying and besides you I'm surrounded by people i hate what do you think?

[mechanic-steeb]

Fine. Fair enough.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the sound of a dial up was heard from the person in kevins arms there eyes half lidded with glitching dull green and pink lines of code in his vision*

[mechanic-steeb]

That's not good.. Do any of you k ow how to fix this?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*ben wordlessy held peices of pink gemstone and broken metal pieces as well*

Oh? So you did keep those after all.

[mechanic-steeb]

Wait.. Did they come out?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

No, those were the pieces of codons gem and my original body before he broke both of them

*now trix looked like he was about to start glitching before he started to calm down*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh.. I'm sorry.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the dial up sound got even worse and his eye's started drooping shut*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he turned to the Gwen and the others*

Well, why are we here? You wanted him, and you got him. What now?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

We take him to the fountain those crystal gems talk about, and try to heal his gem and repair the watch.

[mechanic-steeb]

Makes sense. Let's go, then.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the trip to the fountain was quiet*

[mechanic-steeb]

So... Any special preparations or are you just gonna chuck him in there? I don't know much about that watch. It's beyond me.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*That was when the cat pulled out various syringes and ivs and even a heart monitor, gwen made a bed out of pink energy and codon was placed on it, before kevin lifted his shirt up and yanked out his already cracked gem and that caused codon and trix to scream in shock and pain*

[mechanic-steeb]

Ok, we're doing this.

*he took a step back as to not get in anyone's way*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*That was when the needle was injected into his arm making him stop screaming, they insirted the i.v and the drip had fountain water inside, but when they removed the omnitrix portion of the gem the entire remains of the cracked up diamond shattered in gwens hands*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he simply backed up, not wanting to get in the way*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*it would be a couple of hours and some very close calls before both a reddish pink wrist watch and a bright pink diamond were brand new and damage free*

[mechanic-steeb]

... Is that it?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Yeah that should be it.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mm.. How're you feeling Codon, Trix?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*they didn't respond as they were both asleep, the watch seemingly fused to his wrist now*

[mechanic-steeb]

Ah.. I guess it's probably easier to perform surgery on an asleep person..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Now all we do is wait

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Guess so.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*codon seemed to groan softly*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he stood next to his laying body*

Hey. Are you alright?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*His once pale pink skin became pale white one more and as he opened his eyes gear could see his darker pink eye's*

W-where am?

[mechanic-steeb]

... What? Did you jist forget everything that jist happened?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

W-wait, that voice.

*he slowly got up and his eyes widened at the sight of his fully restored gem in bens hand*

Get your hands off my gem

*his hand shot out and a hand made of pink energy grabbed it from the very surprised brunette, the shade of pink was somewhat lighter but it felt like the energy he was still underneath*

[mechanic-steeb]

Well, that escalated.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*He hugged the gem for dear life as if nothing else mattered to him*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

* a portal opened up on the beach and 4 figures came landed on the ground 3 looked human and one almost looked like a humanoid cat in armor*

@mechanic-steeb (or @corvid-steven whichever you prefer) @thebrothersphineasandferb @bright-steven @purple-steven

[mechanic-steeb]

*Gear saw the portal and approached*

Hello? Who're you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*one of the humans a girl with somewhat long orange hair looked at gear with a look of shock*

Steven?

*she sounded shocked but also hopeful at gear*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Oh yeah. I haven't heard that name in a long time. Do I know you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Hold on gwen.

* the second human a muscular guy with somewhat long raven black hair said as he was looking at you*

This isn't our guy, he might have some features similar to them but the skin and hair are off he looks allot like what steven used to look like.

*that seemed to make the girl who was now known as gwen look over you again and look away in realization*

[mechanic-steeb]

Who are you looking for, if I may ask?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

He's about the same height as you curly pink hair, sickly look, pink skin black eyes, grey hoodie, ring any bells?

*the black haired stranger asked*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh yeah, Codon.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

That's what he's calling himself now?

Wait do you know where he is?

[mechanic-steeb]

First off, why are you asking for him?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*this time the humanoid cat in armor spoke out*

We've been trying to help him for years now, and when we found him, he disappeared and we couldn't find him for the better part of an entire year.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Well, I think he lives in a tower with a few others. Shall I take you to him?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

That would be most appreciated.

Yes please lead the way

Lead the way look a like

*gwen hit his chest and said kevin in a scolding tone indicated that kevin must have been his name*

[mechanic-steeb]

Alright.

*he led them towards the tower*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*since they were at the beach the walk to the tower was quick*

[mechanic-steeb]

This is it. The tower.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*they looked shocked*

How did we not see this.

[mechanic-steeb]

Dunno. I'm not convinced it's entirely here..

[the-phantom-gems]

Your quite right about that my friend.

*phantom in his human form said right behind them making everyone jump*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Oh, Phantom. Hi. We're looking for Codon.

[the-phantom-gems]

His room is upstairs 3rd room on your right, but I'd say be careful. He's having one of those episodes again.

[mechanic-steeb]

Ok, we will. C'mon.

*he followed his instructions to Codon's room, knocking*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*there was no response*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he knocked again*

Codon? It's me, Gear. Some people want to meet you.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

* a weak coughing was heard from the other side of the door and the shuffling of feet was also heard coming to the door*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he waited patiently*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*a few minutes later the door opened up and codon answered , he looked like he just got out of bed as he was in some pj's his hair was a wreck and most surprising were his glazed over eyes, empty smile amd bright green circuit lines on his cheek which caused the others behind gear to either gasp or look away in what seemed to be anger or guilt*

[mechanic-steeb]

*Gear was oblivious to the others*

Hi, sorry yo wake you. But some people wanted to meet you.

*he stepped aside to give them a good look at him*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*as he gazed at the strangers his eyes seemed to become clear his hazy empty smile becoming a tight frown, as he very quickly shut and locked the door*

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon? Is something wrong?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

W-what are those he-he heathen-monsters doing outside of my d-door-cell

*his voice was not only venomous but glitching certain words seemed to overlap with other words*

[mechanic-steeb]

I don't know. They came out of a portal and said they wanted to see you.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

W-well then tell them to politely leave-get the hell out of my part of the tower, i have no business with them-i have no business with life destroyers

*despite the glitchy overlap they all heard what he was saying quite clearly*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he turned to the others*

Sorry. Guess he doesn't want to see you. Shall we leave?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*gwen looked visibly concerned*

I-i don't know did you see the lines on his face or his very sickly demeanour he needs our help more then ever.

[mechanic-steeb]

I dunno. But if he doesn't want to talk to you, y'all should probably leave.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the final person who never announced his name a guy with brown hair and a green jacket knocked on the door*

Steven, trix open the door.

*the armour wearing individual said 'ben' in. Warning tone of voice, and gear thought for a moment that that name specifically sounded very familiar*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he waited for a response, curious*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the door was practically ripped off it's hinges as the now named ben was dragged into the room and the door was shut again*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Codon? Trix?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*all 4 people could practically feel the rage emanating from inside the locked room*

S-so, b-back ag-ag-again.

*whatever was happening to codon was making his speech glitch even more so then before*

What are you two here for out to ruin another Steven's life

*trix who was always the level headed person of codons little group growled the word out like he was struggling to hide his anger*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Do any of you know what's going on?

*he turned to the others*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*all 3 of them looked away in either shame guilt or anger*

Please boy's me and omni only want to-

*whatever ben was saying was cut off as a large thud sounded out when something hit the door*

Sh-sh-shut your mouth.

*it was becoming rather apparent that something was very very wrong with codon*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he decided to hear out what was happening*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Yo-yo-you have no right to even try to s-s-lie about want to help me after what you did to m-me-us

S-steven calm down your not sounding very good at all your glitching terribly

*a new voice one that sounded like a women came from the other side of the room*

[mechanic-steeb]

...?

*he leaned in closer, pressing his ear against the door*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

D-don't act like you care all of sudden o-omni, i-if you did y-y-you would have s-s-stopped b-ben all t-th-those years ago.

*to gear he almost sounded tired*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh,..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

E-e-even n-n you c-contin to torture m.

*now hos voice was almost unintelligible as of it was slowly being suppressed with something*

Okay maybe there right about this one codon you need to rest

*trix chimed in this time sounding very concerned*

[mechanic-steeb]

. . .

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*a somewhat audible static reverberated from the locked room as the door swung open and ben was forced out*

And stay out of our room.

*the shadowy visage of trix slammed the door shut and locked it, footsteps indicating codon was forced back to bed*

[mechanic-steeb]

What happened?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Allot of screaming, he hit me allot and then trix threw me out when he said steven needed rest.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Do you know why?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

It's as if me just being there made whatever was happening to him worse.

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

There were allot of sparks, I'm honestly pretty worried right now.

[mechanic-steeb]

That's understandable.. If I may, what's your relation to each other?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

I was his, teacher in the ways of the omnitrix but i ended up making a terrible mistake one me and omni need to fix.

Well that's putting it mildly

Sorry ben but kevin's right.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Why's he mad at you, then?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Because i was the reason he became what he is right now

*ben looks away in nothing but guilt and shame*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

To be honest you had a much more tame reaction then we had

[mechanic-steeb]

I guess I didn't have the full, fresh experience.

*he shrugged*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Consider yourself lucky

*the cat was now knocking on the door*

Steven please your not feeling well, let us help you

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon, please.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*this time kevin made it to the door and in one fell swoop punched the door to shreds*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? What was that for?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Because this is going nowhere, and he only seems to listen to me like this.

*he walked into the room*

[mechanic-steeb]

Mm..

*he followed, peeking his head in*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the apartment room was a mess, blood stains both red and green carpeted quite a bit of the area, empty bottles of pain pills and fountain water littered an area in the corner and kevin came out holding the apartments sickly occupant who looked to be trying to argue but couldn't*

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon? Are you alright?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*no sound came from his mouth, he clearly was not fine at all*

[mechanic-steeb]

..Trix, what about you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

I'm trying to stop my best friend from dying and besides you I'm surrounded by people i hate what do you think?

We take him to the fountain those crystal gems talk about, and try to heal his gem and repair the watch.

[mechanic-steeb]

Makes sense. Let's go, then.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the trip to the fountain was quiet*

[mechanic-steeb]

So... Any special preparations or are you just gonna chuck him in there? I don't know much about that watch. It's beyond me.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*That was when the cat pulled out various syringes and ivs and even a heart monitor, gwen made a bed out of pink energy and codon was placed on it, before kevin lifted his shirt up and yanked out his already cracked gem and that caused codon and trix to scream in shock and pain*

[mechanic-steeb]

Ok, we're doing this.

*he took a step back as to not get in anyone's way*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*That was when the needle was injected into his arm making him stop screaming, they insirted the i.v and the drip had fountain water inside, but when they removed the omnitrix portion of the gem the entire remains of the cracked up diamond shattered in gwens hands*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he simply backed up, not wanting to get in the way*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*it would be a couple of hours and some very close calls before both a reddish pink wrist watch and a bright pink diamond were brand new and damage free*

[mechanic-steeb]

... Is that it?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Yeah that should be it.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mm.. How're you feeling Codon, Trix?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*they didn't respond as they were both asleep, the watch seemingly fused to his wrist now*

[mechanic-steeb]

Ah.. I guess it's probably easier to perform surgery on an asleep person..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Now all we do is wait

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Guess so.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*codon seemed to groan softly*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he stood next to his laying body*

Hey. Are you alright?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*His once pale pink skin became pale white one more and as he opened his eyes gear could see his darker pink eye's*

W-where am?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

* a portal opened up on the beach and 4 figures came landed on the ground 3 looked human and one almost looked like a humanoid cat in armor*

@mechanic-steeb (or @corvid-steven whichever you prefer) @thebrothersphineasandferb @bright-steven @purple-steven

[mechanic-steeb]

*Gear saw the portal and approached*

Hello? Who're you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*one of the humans a girl with somewhat long orange hair looked at gear with a look of shock*

Steven?

*she sounded shocked but also hopeful at gear*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Oh yeah. I haven't heard that name in a long time. Do I know you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Hold on gwen.

* the second human a muscular guy with somewhat long raven black hair said as he was looking at you*

This isn't our guy, he might have some features similar to them but the skin and hair are off he looks allot like what steven used to look like.

*that seemed to make the girl who was now known as gwen look over you again and look away in realization*

[mechanic-steeb]

Who are you looking for, if I may ask?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

He's about the same height as you curly pink hair, sickly look, pink skin black eyes, grey hoodie, ring any bells?

*the black haired stranger asked*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh yeah, Codon.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

That's what he's calling himself now?

Wait do you know where he is?

[mechanic-steeb]

First off, why are you asking for him?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*this time the humanoid cat in armor spoke out*

We've been trying to help him for years now, and when we found him, he disappeared and we couldn't find him for the better part of an entire year.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Well, I think he lives in a tower with a few others. Shall I take you to him?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

That would be most appreciated.

Yes please lead the way

Lead the way look a like

*gwen hit his chest and said kevin in a scolding tone indicated that kevin must have been his name*

[mechanic-steeb]

Alright.

*he led them towards the tower*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*since they were at the beach the walk to the tower was quick*

[mechanic-steeb]

This is it. The tower.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*they looked shocked*

How did we not see this.

[mechanic-steeb]

Dunno. I'm not convinced it's entirely here..

[the-phantom-gems]

Your quite right about that my friend.

*phantom in his human form said right behind them making everyone jump*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Oh, Phantom. Hi. We're looking for Codon.

[the-phantom-gems]

His room is upstairs 3rd room on your right, but I'd say be careful. He's having one of those episodes again.

[mechanic-steeb]

Ok, we will. C'mon.

*he followed his instructions to Codon's room, knocking*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*there was no response*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he knocked again*

Codon? It's me, Gear. Some people want to meet you.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

* a weak coughing was heard from the other side of the door and the shuffling of feet was also heard coming to the door*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he waited patiently*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*a few minutes later the door opened up and codon answered , he looked like he just got out of bed as he was in some pj's his hair was a wreck and most surprising were his glazed over eyes, empty smile amd bright green circuit lines on his cheek which caused the others behind gear to either gasp or look away in what seemed to be anger or guilt*

[mechanic-steeb]

*Gear was oblivious to the others*

Hi, sorry yo wake you. But some people wanted to meet you.

*he stepped aside to give them a good look at him*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*as he gazed at the strangers his eyes seemed to become clear his hazy empty smile becoming a tight frown, as he very quickly shut and locked the door*

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon? Is something wrong?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

W-what are those he-he heathen-monsters doing outside of my d-door-cell

*his voice was not only venomous but glitching certain words seemed to overlap with other words*

[mechanic-steeb]

I don't know. They came out of a portal and said they wanted to see you.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

W-well then tell them to politely leave-get the hell out of my part of the tower, i have no business with them-i have no business with life destroyers

*despite the glitchy overlap they all heard what he was saying quite clearly*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he turned to the others*

Sorry. Guess he doesn't want to see you. Shall we leave?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*gwen looked visibly concerned*

I-i don't know did you see the lines on his face or his very sickly demeanour he needs our help more then ever.

[mechanic-steeb]

I dunno. But if he doesn't want to talk to you, y'all should probably leave.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the final person who never announced his name a guy with brown hair and a green jacket knocked on the door*

Steven, trix open the door.

*the armour wearing individual said 'ben' in. Warning tone of voice, and gear thought for a moment that that name specifically sounded very familiar*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he waited for a response, curious*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the door was practically ripped off it's hinges as the now named ben was dragged into the room and the door was shut again*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Codon? Trix?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*all 4 people could practically feel the rage emanating from inside the locked room*

S-so, b-back ag-ag-again.

*whatever was happening to codon was making his speech glitch even more so then before*

What are you two here for out to ruin another Steven's life

*trix who was always the level headed person of codons little group growled the word out like he was struggling to hide his anger*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? Do any of you know what's going on?

*he turned to the others*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*all 3 of them looked away in either shame guilt or anger*

Please boy's me and omni only want to-

*whatever ben was saying was cut off as a large thud sounded out when something hit the door*

Sh-sh-shut your mouth.

*it was becoming rather apparent that something was very very wrong with codon*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he decided to hear out what was happening*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Yo-yo-you have no right to even try to s-s-lie about want to help me after what you did to m-me-us

S-steven calm down your not sounding very good at all your glitching terribly

*a new voice one that sounded like a women came from the other side of the room*

[mechanic-steeb]

...?

*he leaned in closer, pressing his ear against the door*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

D-don't act like you care all of sudden o-omni, i-if you did y-y-you would have s-s-stopped b-ben all t-th-those years ago.

*to gear he almost sounded tired*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh,..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

E-e-even n-n you c-contin to torture m.

*now hos voice was almost unintelligible as of it was slowly being suppressed with something*

Okay maybe there right about this one codon you need to rest

*trix chimed in this time sounding very concerned*

[mechanic-steeb]

. . .

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*a somewhat audible static reverberated from the locked room as the door swung open and ben was forced out*

And stay out of our room.

*the shadowy visage of trix slammed the door shut and locked it, footsteps indicating codon was forced back to bed*

[mechanic-steeb]

What happened?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Allot of screaming, he hit me allot and then trix threw me out when he said steven needed rest.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Do you know why?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

It's as if me just being there made whatever was happening to him worse.

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

There were allot of sparks, I'm honestly pretty worried right now.

[mechanic-steeb]

That's understandable.. If I may, what's your relation to each other?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

I was his, teacher in the ways of the omnitrix but i ended up making a terrible mistake one me and omni need to fix.

Well that's putting it mildly

Sorry ben but kevin's right.

[mechanic-steeb]

Mhm.. Why's he mad at you, then?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Because i was the reason he became what he is right now

*ben looks away in nothing but guilt and shame*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh..

[the-omnitrix-gem]

To be honest you had a much more tame reaction then we had

[mechanic-steeb]

I guess I didn't have the full, fresh experience.

*he shrugged*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Consider yourself lucky

*the cat was now knocking on the door*

Steven please your not feeling well, let us help you

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon, please.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*this time kevin made it to the door and in one fell swoop punched the door to shreds*

[mechanic-steeb]

What? What was that for?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

Because this is going nowhere, and he only seems to listen to me like this.

*he walked into the room*

[mechanic-steeb]

Mm..

*he followed, peeking his head in*

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the apartment room was a mess, blood stains both red and green carpeted quite a bit of the area, empty bottles of pain pills and fountain water littered an area in the corner and kevin came out holding the apartments sickly occupant who looked to be trying to argue but couldn't*

[mechanic-steeb]

Codon? Are you alright?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*no sound came from his mouth, he clearly was not fine at all*

[mechanic-steeb]

..Trix, what about you?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

I'm trying to stop my best friend from dying and besides you I'm surrounded by people i hate what do you think?

[mechanic-steeb]

Fine. Fair enough.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the sound of a dial up was heard from the person in kevins arms there eyes half lidded with glitching dull green and pink lines of code in his vision*

[mechanic-steeb]

That's not good.. Do any of you k ow how to fix this?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*ben wordlessy held peices of pink gemstone and broken metal pieces as well*

Oh? So you did keep those after all.

[mechanic-steeb]

Wait.. Did they come out?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

No, those were the pieces of codons gem and my original body before he broke both of them

*now trix looked like he was about to start glitching before he started to calm down*

[mechanic-steeb]

Oh.. I'm sorry.

[the-omnitrix-gem]

*the dial up sound got even worse and his eye's started drooping shut*

[mechanic-steeb]

*he turned to the Gwen and the others*

Well, why are we here? You wanted him, and you got him. What now?

[the-omnitrix-gem]

We take him to the fountain those crystal gems talk about, and try to heal his gem and repair the watch.
