Night One: The Return, Part One

"So what happens now?" Benji asked; his hands in his pocket as he walked down the streets of Boston. The stoner shark, Bright, a Kagen from a different universe walked next to him and as it seemed that the city had recovered from literally having hell come to it and then being sent back. Benji held a bouquet of flowers in his hand and he intended on delivering them to Martin.

"I'm not sure, maybe this continues or maybe we give up. Who knows what happens next, maybe we'll be forever frozen in time and never knows what happens next, all depends on what you want to do Benji?" The Kagen Shark said as he walked down the street; they arrived at an intersection. Bright held out his hands and kept Benji back; ideally he was more worried about the flowers.

Suddenly there was a commotion; tire wheels comically flew past them as he looked behind and saw the cause of the crashes. A massive glowing portal appeared in front of them on the street, in the middle of the street and causing the car crash. Benji turned around and handed the bouquet to Bright; walking forward he held out his hand and formed a baseball bat.

"I swear to god, if the devil has decided on all the days like today to reveal himself to this world; I am going to beat him in." Benji said to himself as he activated his perception filter and turning his fur coat into a leather long coat and giving himself a red mask; it at least separated him from the Hellbender identity the media trusted on him; it was the least Elliot could so done for him.

Jumping up onto the top of the car; he walked through the field of crashed cars and towards the portal. A massive rip in the space time continuum; perhaps it was travelling between universes that enlightened his sixth sense for such feelings but he could tell that this was a massive rip; this was from universe to universe as well. A slight rippled formed in the pond of the portal.

"Come on boys, time to conquer the next universe." A deep Australian accent rang throughout Boston, as the edges of the portal glowed. Looking at them it appeared to be a group of five or six walking through. They looked rugged and dirtied; they seemed to have been travelers and looking at it; he had no idea who they were.

The first was a shark; he seemed to be the leader. He seemed to be the Australian and he was the first to take notice of him. The shark smiled and turned his head at Benji. He walked forward and stood up onto a car. Behind him another taller shark stood up onto a car and looked out into the crowd, looking at Bright and smiling.

"Ah another alternate universe Twilight; I was wondering how long it would take for one to show up. They always do" Bright said as his ego and messed up mind showing as he looked at the returning Outsiders. A large werecrocodile stepped out of the portal and crushed a car he stepped onto; blood splattered. Next there was an orca; he seemed to take in the whole crowd and he looked like a man who always had a way to kill everyone in the room.

"Who are these idiots; coming here into our universe this is our place and we need to protect this." Benji said to himself as he switched out his baseball bat and for a more conventional set of katanas. A dragon walked out of the portal and smiled as he looked around; and lastly a toucan joined them.

"Now then allow me to introduce myself, I am Koji, and only Koji but you can call me and my group the Outsiders." Koji presented his group, there was him, then an orca and a large crocodile, next to them, was another shark and a dragon and lastly a toucan. "Now then we've been looking for a universe to plunder and I have to say we've found a nice one."

"Well then Bright it looks like this isn't the end of our stories; get people out of here you can deal with your megalomania and inferiority complex with who I can only assume is your brother." Basil said turning around and convincing Bright to move people away from the site; he knew how big the battle with the group would be. He twisted the two sharp katanas around in his hand and felt onto the grip. "Ah and yes Kagen Prince how nice for you to grace us with your presence."

"Oh look we have someone informed; he isn't nervous. Be careful, he is not like the others we've faced; he lost someone recently. He has been pushed to the edge and he has nothing to lose; he has no human connections. In all my years in people's mind I've never been this close to call someone the perfect warrior." The toucan said to Koji as she turned towards him seemingly presenting a simple report to him.

"Please no one is that detached, be care in your reporting I can see his downfall already; do stay back Molly let the warriors handle this." Koji said as he pushed Molly away; Benji looked at her and realized she was a weakness. She would most likely have something he exploit, some feeling of uselessness or being underpowered that he could use.

...

"So then you're Koji; I've heard about you, Twilight's lover boy; and one of the most infallible, most important and the greatest person in the entire history of the universe; so why are you here tarnishing your reputation?" Benji said entering his mind palace; forgetting the black backgrounded area for a while there. He and Koji started the circling of each other; just as two equally massive planets orbiting around a barycenter.

"Ah but don't you know the answer already; please do stop me if you've heard this one before. Time travel doesn't change your timeline; it creates new timelines and as always you will be stuck with in faith; only the most responsive manipulation and the destruction of a timeline can create a replacement." Koji said giving Benji the reflective surface he needed to work off of. Benji smiled realizing what the meant; maybe there was a timeline where Martin was still alive.

"Please don't be so foolish with me and yourself; you know that the universe will not allow you to be happy. Everyone close to you will die and everyone that is near you is in constant danger for their life. Fear us; we have killed thousands of demons like you." Koji said as he reflected back Benji's feelings; Benji took in a breath as he knew he couldn't keep improvising; he might need an actual plan.

"Fear me; I've killed them all." Benji said boasting his recent accomplishment of killing all the demons by sending them back to hell. The mind palace collapsed.

...

Returning back to universe he looked forward and twisted the katana in his left hand; he raised his hand and pointed it forward. Bringing his best Bride he jumped to the next car and quickly saw Koji fire a series of red beams through the universe and onto a lightbulb. The evil shark's hands glowed as he walked forward and wasted no time showing off his power.

Electricity jumped from car to car as it arced off the metal and towards the immortal shark. Not wanting to die so early in the day; he held up his katanas and pointed them together in the air. The electricity arced away from him and up into the air. Benji smiled as he held the electricity into the air.

Slicing down the electricity hit the car; it shook as it transferred its wattage into the vehicle. Benji groaned and wondered if he should summon a mask at least that would make this battle more interesting. Maybe he could use his speedster mask or his butterfly mask he hadn't used that one in a while.

Running forward Benji slashed his katanas together, Koji wasted no time and put his hands forward his electricity engulfing his hands and providing enough friction to hold him back. Benji pushed forward and he twisted his feet; pushing forward.

Benji twisted his right hand katana and held them in the shape of a cross. He pulled away and slashed Koji; both of them were knocked away by the build-up of electricity. Benji stood back and landed against the car. Groaning as he felt his spine start to snap.

He wasn't going to die yet; he needed to at least wait until he kept them at bay for a little while until he was going to disappear. Standing up; he felt this healing factor at least keep his spine in place that'd probably keep him going for a little while. Behind him he heard the crushing of three cars.

"Well our fun is over; watch the real Outsiders arrive ruining fun and showing off their bureaucratic superpowers and eternally being complete sour asses and killing your boyfriend!" Benji said as he looked back and yelled at Elliot; there was still of a nerve being pinched and he didn't know how long he'd punish Elliot.

"Wow, looks like I found something that can be played with. So you're boyfriend died; well then let's see who else I can kill." Koji said as he walked over a few cars and approached Benji.

"Hey Blake want to use the rip's energy crossing with your radiation to create tightly packed plasma field with sat dish; the funs been ruined." Benji said as he switched his katanas out for a medium sized dish that he formed in his hand and saw the green lizard approach. Looking back Isen looked a little disappointed at being left out. "Hey Isen; clear out the cars!"

Looking content; Isen cleared out the cars leaving the Dark Outsiders in a nice sized sphere area as Benji and Blake stood on the closest cars and sticking his Sat Dish forward he only needed to wait for Blake's radiation in order to complete his plan. Before Dark Koji could escape the area, the lizard fired a ray of radiation at the top of the portal.

It glowed and fired back a series of rays back and forth; Koji was knocked back as he was entranced in a green sphere and trapped. Benji handed the satellite dish to Blake allowing him to manage to forcefield for him. Benji looked behind himself and saw the nice fall he had from the top of the SUV.

Falling back he felt his spine snap again as he landed against the hood of the car and did a flip over the ground and landed on his face. Benji felt his back bleed out and himself fly away from the world as he died. His world flashed white and he disappeared and appeared back in hell.

Hell disappeared in a second and he found himself back in the real world on top of the previous SUV. Benji stood up and cracked his back as he did; he looked back and saw the blood splatter of his previous death. He might be able to donate some blood to the people with a series of deaths.

"Ok, Sat Dish should be stabilized now don't worry we'll be fine for now; keep this pointed up at them and let Isen help you. He's feeling that you aren't treating him as equals." Benji said to Blake as he jumped off the SUV and into the field of cars; he smiled at Isen that would keep the white wolf stable for a while. He saw Bright returning to the field of battle.

"Ok, everyone we need some information; Elliot you don't get to help." Benji said as he pulled Bright towards him and started the process of finding information on these Outsiders. Benji smiled and jumped on top on the car and Bright did the same as they met; Elliot stayed away and knew she wasn't wanted.

"Ok, who are these people? These posers aren't the Koji and the Outsiders you told us about." Benji asked to Bright as they stood on top of the car. Bright looked through Benji and back at the Dark Outsiders. He shivered as if expecting a surprise; he wasted no time walking towards them.

"I don't know; they all have their normalized auras and they seem to be form an Outsider universe. I don't know, someone has to be manipulating the timeline and I have this terrible, horrible, no-good feeling I know who is and what universe they are from." Bright said shivering as he looked back at the Outsiders and wondered what they would do if they had the information he did...

"What universe are they from; if couldn't be. Demons only said stories about the timeline manipulations they said that there was a source universe; a universe where all variations descended from." Benji said wondering what kind of power he would or could have if was in that universe.

"You're right in that; but only for its group of variations. We're dealing with this Universe's source universe; a universe where Koji and Twilight managed to create a massive group; they traveled back in time and made alternations on the variable event." Bright said as he remembered back to the day in his universe; in the Kagen occupation of Earth at the final solution. He knew what happened in his universe and he was still sad at what happened.

"And what did they change; it couldn't have been something massive. We're dealing with tiny changes; but something that ripples through the timeline and creates these differences. Right?" Benji said as he realized that their universal group might have more different than he could have even imagined; he wondered what sort of change could allowed as such.

"In all the universes in this group; the differences happen at a single point; and it's a universal bottle neck; everything before that point doesn't matter so long as one event happens as such than the universe will proceed in one way." Bright said as he took a breath trying to remember to long ago back in the days of the Kagen Empire; his old Universe's Kagen Empire. "A Final Solution; this device would stabilize the Kagen's presence on Earth and kill all mammalian life. In most of this group's variations the device overloads and sends them to an empty universe where they reform their empire."

"And in our universe what happened?" Benji said trying to control his ego and his emotions. To know about the universes formations; how their variations happened and why they happened would be the ultimate power to go back and change how it happened for his own devices would be absolute power.

"In two universes; the charges went off with a reversed polarity in one and a normal in both. Both of these Final Solution machines were more powerful than expected and extended beyond the universes. When the two opposite polarities met they were on different phases; and they pulled together." Bright said wiggling his arms together as a visual aid and pulling them together in his hands.

"Now then this second universe was set back for four hundred or so years. That is the revolutionary universe; and that is why we are so close to hell. This universe is so dense we're pulled down towards hell." Bright said explaining everything as he looked down at the ground, pushing some dirt off the top of the car.

"And who created these manipulations; who made this universe?" Benji asked pulling on Bright's shoulder and pulling him closer. Bright backed up he saw Benji's eyes he saw this before; this level of mania and need for revenge; he saw it in the mirror.

"I saw them; Twilight and Koji manipulated the Final Solution Machine; they made it so that we were created; all the variations were mad by us and everything came from here." Bright said giving the necessary information to Benji; he feared what the shark might do with that information what sort of mania he would follow, how far he would go.

Benji turned his head; Isen and Blake looked like they were enjoying each other's presence and he felt good about that and Elliot looked like she was doing some bureaucratic shit that he didn't care about. He then realized who she was calling as Alex arrived. The crocodile landed and looked at the portal and the Dark Outsiders and then back to Benji; he groaned.

"Dear god what has you gotten onto please control which tangents we're going fly off on to." Alex said as he looked at the portal; presumably seeing if he control its functions as a wave. Benji jumped to the next car and then to the front; he grabbed the satellite dish off of Blake.

"Hey."

"Don't worry we're only doing a little risk management. We only need to make sure these three idiots don't escape from this area." Benji looked over at the side of the road and found a flag stand. The bubble of plasma stayed constant as he placed in on the stand and knew that he didn't have to worry about the Dark Outsiders for at least three weeks.

"Everyone gather." Benji said pulling everyone towards the portal; making a summoning gesture. The six of them gathered in front of the portal and Benji had a look in his face. Alex saw that look and so did Bright; something was going to happen he was planning something.

"Bright if this perversion of the timeline continues can we stay that more dangerous outliers and stranger combinations will be formed?" Benji asked he knew that he would have to justify his reasoning to the group in order to do what he wanted to do.

"Benji what are you planning?" Alex said; Benji enjoyed how worried and how cornered he appeared. Yet Benji knew that he could handle himself and handle what he was going to do. Benji glared at Alex and the crocodile glared back, sticking out his tongue.

"That's not what I asked?"

"Ok, maybe but we have no way to confirm that they have stopped even so; we can't stop what we already know." Bright said as he tried to explain his idea of time travel. "It's like since we know the Dark Outsiders will visit here we can't change that but if there were a second group we don't know that and can change that."

"Ok, well then let's hope that your brother and his boy toy aren't too far in their excellent adventure that they might not have messed up the universe." Benji said as he looked at Bright and sighed knowing that he had caught the Kagen's attention and he might be able to manipulate him.

"What are you saying? Are we going to travel the universe and attempt to find their universe; a little adventure of our own." Isen said as he looked at the portal; he nearly put his hand on the portal but Benji pushed his hand away. Benji nodded at him and they reached a seeming understanding.

"No, I think we can get their through a more direct path; Bright you can manipulate the portal connect it to the main universe? Am I correct?" Benji asked a he turned towards the portal and looked at; summoning a pole in his hand he touched it to the portal and it passed through presumably to where the Dark Outsiders came from.

"Yes, allow me it should be easy getting there but going back; back to here, will take some time." Bright said speaking to everyone in the group; Benji looked around seeing who would be following him and who would stay back. Isen and Blake spoke to each other and Elliot had an uneasy face; Bright looked normal and Alex did the same I'm disappointed in myself not you routine. Benji would know that Alex really was excited to expand his boundaries

"I'll go; I owe that to Martin." Elliot said as he she turned towards the portal; of course it was. She was just trying to get off of Benji's bad list and firmly place herself in a short ride through hell; he didn't trust her. He looked forward at the portal and tried to keep himself from running forward until Bright acted.

"We're going; no reason to stay back here. We're going to follow the action and like hell you can get rid of us." Blake said as he and Isen stepped forward; volunteering themselves to go through the portal as well. He looked at Alex who was nearly at cringing; he looked at Bright who nodded and he had everyone together.

"Well then Alex you're left will you come with us and honor your leader; come with me for Martin." Benji said as he extended his hand to Alex who looked at him and down at his hand. Alex's face soured and he looked at Benji. He put his hand down and reluctantly agreed. Alex seemed to step in front and he walked forward to the portal.

"Now then Bright; do your universal magic." Benji said as he stepped back from the portal and the Kagen Shark stepped forward and took over. Benji smiled as Bright palpitated his fingers over the portal's circumference. Glowing; the tear through the universe changed it became more rampant as it spread more energy over a longer distance.

Everyone stood silent and citizens fled in the background; avoiding the area as if it was poison. Benji smiled; and Alex pointed out his twirling of fingers to Elliot as he watched Bright preform. The portal turned from green into a glowing red. Benji's eyes reflected the color and he started to walk forward; Bright nodded at him.

"We are a clear to go; hold on and don't exit the ride; please keep your hands and feet inside the ride at all time." Bright said as he pulled his hands back and let the portal be clear for everyone. No one moved; they were all waiting for Benji to do something and the shark seemed to be calculating errors; figuring odds and making choices.

"I'm going on my own; don't follow me; stay behind for ten minutes once that time passes come in and I'll either be dead for the fourteen time or I'll be dead for the thirteenth time." Benji said as he saw Alex set his clock, presumably for one minute less. Running forward he jumped into the portal and ducked through.

"So how long do you have your clock set?" Alex said turning his head towards Alex and Blake as they adjusted their watch for the situation.

"Seven Minutes."

"I have mine set for five." Elliot said bragging as she held up her watch.

"I give him three." Bright said.

...

"Are you sure you're ok. You just have what seemed to be all of your regeneration energy in bout?" Koji asked Twilight as he shined a tiny pocket light into Twilight's eyes. The Kagen looked pretty good for having his energy absorbed and possibly being on the edge of death. Now the Outsiders were gone; while a cloned Kagen Dragon added they were better but Jackson was missing. Eric was depressed and Molly was still gone

Koji felt a tingling on his head turned around and then nearly blinding him a portal appeared before him and Twilight. The Kagen shark backed up; raising his arms above his head and backing away. Looking at it the sharks wondered what was going on in there. Putting his hand out suddenly another shark's stuck its hand out of the portal and for a second Benji was going to grab on.

"I am Benji, reincarnation of Bright and for what you have done you will pay!" The shark said jumping out of the portal; doing a jump he threw down his fist onto Koji. The two sharks crashed into each other and rolled into Twilight again; knocking him out further. They were in some sort of dark room a super computer overlooking the room.

Benji put his hand out and summoned a baseball bat. Benji quickly slammed down the bat to the horror of Koji. The attacked shark pushed Benji off with his hands and quick threw his beams to the supercomputer; Koji absorbed the electricity and his hands glowed yellow with electricity.

Benji jumped on Koji but the shark did not hesitate throwing his hands forward and discharging a blast of electricity. Benji was knocked back into a spinning chair and quickly the shark twisted the chair around his body and knew that this fight couldn't go on. He summoned a weapon and pointed it at Koji.

"Who the hell are you!" Koji yelled as he looked back at Twilight and saw the Kagen god knocked out. Koji groaned as he threw a blast of electricity forward and knocked the weapon out of the shark's hand. Benji shook his hand as he twisted the chair around and threw it at Koji.

Koji jumped around the chair but it the quick enough time that Benji needed for his new instant plan. Putting his hand out he formed a sword and shield. The foreign shark ran forward and put his sword up. Striking down, Benji smiled with satisfaction as he prepared to cut through Koji. Like his dark mirror; Koji raised his hand and stopped the weapon.

"Well then look at you and aren't you just a smart little thing; keep your senses up and don't give up yet but don't think that this battle will last forever!" Benji said as he pulled his sword back and threw it, the shield into the air and they both disappeared. Benji backed up back towards the portal and leaned near it.

"Who the hell are you!" Koji asked again as Benji grabbed a chair again and threw it at Koji. The shark dodged around the chair and looked at Benji tilting his head in shame that he used the same tactic twice. "Ok, enough games come on give me some exposition here."

"Fine then, I am the patron of the devil; the immortal child; and the man you have simply tormented by creating our universe!" Benji yelled as he formed a mask; one he hadn't used in a while, the drill arm mask. Placing it on his face he glowed and his body changed; covered in an yellow armadillo like mask his hands changed into two half drills.

Benji put his hands together and formed one arm drill. As expected the drill started to spin and the shark ran forward hoping to impale Koji. Koji saw that the mask was somewhat blocking his face and sat down in the chair. Koji pushed himself off the desk and flew across the room. Either not seeing Koji or going to fast; Benji flew past Koji and into the desk.

Benji's hand stuck into the desk and he was quickly embedded into the wooden piece. He attempted to pull out of the desk but founding himself promptly kept into the wood. Koji looked out and saw Benji trapped; he fired his hand forward but the beams redirected. They hit Benji and his mask glowed. The mask broke into multiple pieces and his arm drills collapsed back into his normal hands.

"Ok, you got some skills to yourself and no one has ever broken my mask; well at least it wasn't one that I liked." Benji said as he walked forward out of the wooden desk. He turned over and looked back at Koji; he formed a turret in his hell. Smiling with a passion he pulled the trigger and fired a swarm of bullets at Koji and knew that he could escape that. The attacked shark, spun his hand out and a layer of energy spread out.

Benji was knocked back and his turret knocked out his hand. The shark quickly pushed himself back on his feet and he ran forward. He threw a punch and knocked Koji in the face. Koji threw a punch at him and they both landed on the floor; Benji twisted them around and started to hold Koji down by his throat and started to punch.

Koji discharged the rest of his electricity and Benji screamed as he was knocked away. He looked down at his chest and his skin was burned. It seemed to start to heal anyway; his coats hole won't heal though. He walked forward and summoned his third baseball bat.

Swinging it; this time Koji ducked under the bat and laughed at him. Benji threw down the baseball bat and slammed it into the shark's shoulders. Koji landed on the floor and stopped as he felt the pain in his shoulders. Koji stood down and smiled at Benji as he knew he might be over taken.

"Now then you're time travel romp; let's talk about that you know what I'm talking about. Right?" Benji asked as he stopped the battle and decided to get into the nitty-gritty of the conversation. Koji looked at him with the look of regret in his eyes.

"I made universes; I saw universes end as they began and I all influenced one; the Kagen device to make the final solution a reality; I stopped it as hope that some universes might be able to live without Kagen influence, most were worse." Koji said as he smiled; Benji was suddenly confused. Why was the shark in front of him smiling?

Suddenly he felt a set of arms around his neck; he was flipped over a person. The Kagen shark known as Twilight was the one that grabbed him, he saw the shark smile at him. As he landed on the ground; he felt a wave of pure energy cover his body. He felt burning as the energy passed through him.

"Ah yes; the instigator of the time travel." Benji said to himself as he stood up and looked at Twilight; he decided to risk another mask to deal with the sharks. He formed the first mask that he absorbed. He formed the rock like mask; placing it on his face. His body bulked up and his skin hardened.

With his body skin hardened; his body turned brown and he grew tall. Walking forward he control his breathing as he punched Twilight. Once again the Kagen god was knocked away and hit the wall. Benji walked forward and grabbed Koji; the tiny shark struggled in his hand as he squeezed down on his tiny and frail body.

"Really people do get dumber as they get bigger; come on put some ideas together; my hand is right on your body." Benji said as red glow emerged from Benji's hand. Benji's body started to rumble as his body and mask were absorbed into Koji. The massive shark's body started to crumble and his rocks disappearing as they were turned into energy.

Benji's body collapse and the normalized shark landed on the floor. The rest of the rocks turned red and were absorbed into Koji's body. The shark smiled as he raised his hand at Benji and fired a beam. The ultimate wake-up call; Benji quickly dodged out of the way. The desk was exploded with the energy and its wooden pieces knocked over the base.

Benji formed a brick and threw it Koji. Seemingly target practice, Koji fired a second beam and the brick was severed into a million pieces over the floor. Benji jumped up and formed a laser gun in his hand. Firing a blast, Kojin reacted with his own blast. The blasts canceled out and Benji grabbed Koji; he threw him against the desk.

"Now then let's get back to why I am here in your universe; you made my universe. You made multiple universes and you made millions of people horrible you are responsible for the horrors I felt; you are responsible for every single hell that you have put through them." Benji said as he pushed down on Koji's wrist making sure that the shark wasn't going to escape.

"I'm sorry, we only hoped to stop the Kagens. They're monsters, they breech universes and take over Earths; I was only doing this to help people; I never meant to hurt anyone." Koji said as he shook; Benji smiled seeing the fear in Benji's face and in his hand formed the metal shark mask. Placing it on his head he felt the feeling of metal covering his body.

"Well shame about that, everyone in my universe who has died; everyone who has suffered; for everyone you will suffer. A priest named Absalom; he killed himself because the universe threw too much on him. A man named Greg; pushed to edge and forced to hell. My boyfriend, Martin Byrn; killed because of his existence." Basil said as a tear ran down his metallic face; he slammed his fist into the table and it crushed under his force.

"I'm sorry Benji; I never meant to hurt you or hurt anyone that you loved. I was pig headed and the power of timelines pilled me in and I couldn't show reasonability; all I did was want to raise an army against the Kagens!" Koji yelled as he tried to show the truth in his voice but Benji simply smiled. He looked over at Twilight and the Kagen god was still knocked out from his rock stunt.

"You wanted to raise an army against the Kagen's how a valiant choice to go with too bad then; you managed to raise an army against yourself." Benji said as he raised his blade arm and made sure that Koji had it right in view; making sure both of Koji's hands were tied Benji lowed the blade onto the shark's hand and prepared to swipe. He smiled at Koji who looked mortified.

"Now then let's start with the first person you hurt; Absalom. He jumped off a bridge; and was swept away by the waters of the Boston River; he came from revolutionary times and didn't understand this world; he killed me many times but never truly saw me as the devil's spawn." Benji said as he started to slice and he hoped that the Outsiders would scream in pain.

...

"So how long do you think we should wait until we go into the portal?" Alex asked as he checked his watch; it was longer than they had said they would originally wait. Alex looked around and tried to figure out what everyone was figuring out.

"No, I like not being the social pariah." Elliot said as she checked the watch and let the hand tick for a few more seconds. Everyone looked at her and she shrugged a bit; she sighed and realized negative connotations of what she was saying. "Oh, well I mean I like not being judged by Benji."

"Elliot why don't you hold that thought; because trust me if you think Benji is the only one judging your for what you did then trust me this world is far less judgmental than you think." Alex said as a smirk came to his face and he had the feeling that Martin was giving him the thumbs up for heaven or hell.

"Yeah let's jump in." Bright said as he looked at his watch and pulled back. He ran forward and jumped in followed by the rest of the gang.

...

Benji realized the portal was pulsing. Just as when the Dark Outsiders appeared, his friends were coming to ruin the party. He pushed Koji off him and quickly took off his metal mask making it disappear into thin air as he turned toward the portal and tried to look surprised.

"Well then Koji; time for you to meet the Outsiders."
