Ben turned to around. "Professor Paradox?" asked Ben in surprised

"You will not convince Serena and Belicus to help you, not today."

Then Serena and Belicus noticed Professor Paradox.

"Timewalker! You are not welcome here!" said Serena

"Argeed. Resolved, punish Paradox for ignoring the treaty between him and the Celestial Sapiens race." said Belicus

"Seconded!"

"I'm not supposed to go within 500 light-years of them." said Paradox

"Resolved, destroy Professor Paradox." said Belicus

"It's time to leave."

"But I have to convince them to..." said Ben. Then Professor Paradox grabbed Ben's shoulder and they were transported back to where Ben transformed into Alien X. "You made me change back?"

"You want to go to the Forge of Creation. I'm here to take you there."

"How? It's hidden." said Star

"True, but I'm the one who hid it."

"This has gone far enough, Paradox!" said Azmuth

"Has it?"

"Granted, he achieved far more than I'd believed possible, but trusting that boy with the omnitrix was a grave mistake."

"Not a mistake. You know the reasons why."

"Yes, you have told me. That still doesn't mean I'm not skeptical. With the time you came in about Ben and all those time you stopped me from taking back the wand."

"Wait! He wanted to take back the wand?" asked Star

"Yes. And every time I talked him out of it. All 945,529,352 times. With Queen Solaria being the hardest and the most with 55,628,941 times."

"Either way this is to much for him. He cannot win this battle." said Azmuth

"And I say he can. Won't it be fun to find out who's right?"

"You guys wanna stop taking so we can stop Aggregor." said Ben

"What he said. We're going to do this. You going to help?" asked Kevin

"You can start by telling us what the Forge of Creation is." said Gwen

"It's the source of the universe's greatest power. It's where ideas become real." said Paradox

"The Forge of Creation is where Celestial Sapiens, like Alien X, are born." said Azmuth

"It sounds beautiful." said Gwen

"Anyway, it doesn't sound like a problem." said Kevin

"Aggregor intends to absorb the abilities of a newborn Celestial Sapien. Should he succeed, he will become omnipotent." said Paradox

"Okay, that sounds like a problem." said Ben

"Yeah. A big problem." said Star

"I believe that with the help of your friends, you can stop this. Will you try?" asked Paradox

"You have to ask?" asked Ben

"If we're going to get there in time, we'll have to have already ready left. Off we go." Paradox teleported himself, Ben, Star, Kevin and Gwen into the Rust Bucket that was in an unknown location.

"Where are we? There's nothing on the instruments." said Kevin

"Understandable. There's nothing outside, either. You see that faint glow in the distance?" Paradox pointed too a glowing dot in the distance.

          

"A star?" asked Gwen

"Actually, it's the universe. We're in the space beyond."

"Then what's that?" asked Star pointing to a different glowing dot.

"That is the next universe over. I don't like it at all. The physics are terribly counterintuitive."

"Wait. I thought the universe was everything." said Kevin

"A common error of the parochial mind. There is always more to reality than one imagines. Ah. We've arrived. Full stop."

"Relative to what?" asked Gwen

"Excellent point, actually."

"I still don't see anything." said Ben

"That's because it's enclosed by a chronal randomization barrier. It is out of sync with all time and, without the Map of Infinity, totally inaccessible. Unless, of course, you're me." Then they saw the nebula. "Inside this hidden nebula is the birthplace of a bouncing baby Alien X. And while it is a truly adorable..."

"We can't let Aggregor touch it. Let's do this."

Then Professor Paradox did something. "This is as far as I can go."

"With all your powers, why don't you just, like, snap your fingers or something and fix all this?" asked Kevin

"You could go back in time and stop Aggregor before he gets the map." said Gwen

"If only it were that simple. There are places I cannot go and things I cannot do." said Paradox

"But Ben can?" asked Kevin

"I've opened a portal through the barrier and arranged for life support. While inside, you will not need air, nor will you feel discomfort from heat and cold."

"Then we can't be killed?" asked Ben

"You most certainly can."

"Aww."

"A fact Aggregor will be attempting to prove as soon as he becomes aware you're here." Then Professor Paradox then disappeared.

"Hey! How are we supposed to find the... Oh. Never mind. Found the nebula." said Kevin

As they flew there was a thud on the roof of the ship and made it shacked it.

"You hit something?" asked Gwen

"Something hit us." said Kevin. Then something started to cut into the cockpit of the ship. Then the robots that Aggregor used entered the ship. Both Gwen and Star started to fire at them. But one of them got pass and grabbed Kevin. Gwen fired it head of and Kevin knocked it off him. But thanks to that Kevin wasn't driving for a bit and lost control. The left wing hit the side of the field that Professor Paradox made. And because of this the ship came to a abrupt stop. Because of the stop the robots where flung forward. Gwen put up a shield to block them. Kevin tried to hit the gas so they could move. "We're wedged in!" Then Kevin cut the engines. Then the robots broke through Gwen's shield.

Ben then ran up and hit the ultimatrix. "Terraspin!" Ben tackled the group of robots. But after a bit the robot started to pile on to Ben.

"Get off him!" said Star as started to fire blasts at the robots. But then soon Ben started to spin and blew all the robot's out of the ship. "Nice one!"

Ben then hit the omnitrix symbol and turned back to normal. "Aggregor's already here. We've got to get moving." said Ben

"We're not going anywhere. We're stuck." said Kevin

"So lets get unstuck."

They went out onto the wing of the ship.

"We shouldn't be able to breathe out here." said Gwen
