Hey guys, I know I said i was going to be on hiatus for a little while, but I just felt so bad leaving you guys with a cliffhanger on 'Remnantverse'. So to get that off of my consonants, I decided to write this chapter for all of you to keep you occupied until I can get back to working on the main story. Hopefully this will provide enough laughs until I can take care of my family related business. Now, on to the disclaimer.

Disclaimer: The following is a spin-off of my previous work, "Ben 10 Remnantverse" based on the spin-off of the "RWBY" series, "RWBY Chibi" by Rooster Teeth. All characters and settings belong to their respective owners.


Chapter 4: Yuri Lowenthal

Part 1: Guess That Voice

At that moment, Ben, Mercury, Yang, Nora, and Ruby were all gathered in the courtyard with a very special set-up prepared, along with various other Beacon staff and students. The set-up consisted of a single wall with two numbered curtains, with Ben behind curtain one and Mercury behind curtain two. With them was Yang, keeping a keen eye on the both of them. On the other side of the wall was Ruby, with Nora standing behind a podium. The whole set-up resembled some sort of game show.

"Remind me again why we're doing this?" Mercury asked a little annoyed.

"Because Yang threatened to break my arms and your legs if we didn't," Ben answered, keeping a careful eye on the Huntress.

"Welcome everyone, to our very special game show, Guess That Voice," Nora yelled, "Where all you have to do to win is to recognize a voice!"

The audience cheered as Nora spoke. Everyone was excited to get the game under way.

"Now, let's welcome our guest and contestant, Ruby Rose!" Nora continued as she gestured to Ruby.

The young girl gave a warm smile and wave to the audience, earning even more applause.

"Now, Ruby, the rules of this game are very simple," Nora explained, "In order to win, you must guess who is who behind each curtain based on their voice. They will both say the exact same line, so the only way to tell the difference is how they sound. However, you only get one guess. If you guess right, you get a date with the person you are trying to identify. You understand?"

"Yup!" Ruby responded.

"Then let's get started!" Nora yelled, "The person you are trying to identify is Ben Tennyson. First up is curtain number one!"

"It's hero time!" Ben said in his usual fashion from behind his curtain.

"Next is curtain number two!" Nora exclaimed as she pointed to said curtain.

"It's hero time!" Mercury said, mimicking the way Ben said it.

"Alright, Ruby," Nora said as she turned to the contestant, "Which curtain is Ben Tennyson behind?"

Ruby stood there for a moment in thought before deciding on an answer.

"I can't tell the difference," Ruby lamented, "They sound exactly the same."

The crowd grew silent as the all came to the same realization. Both voices sounded exactly the same. It was almost as if the same person was speaking both lines. With the two voices sounding exactly the same, there was no way to tell them apart and win the game.

"Clearly, we did not think this through," Yang said as she walked out from behind the set, dejected.

Part 2: Voice Recognition

Ben and Mercury were currently having lunch together. Cinder had told Mercury to try to get close to Ben and learn some of his secrets, both personal and about the Omnitrix.

"I heard a rumor that the Omnitrix can recognize your voice," Mercury said nonchalantly.

"Yeah," Ben responded, "I can say certain voice commands to use special functions."

"Mind sharing them?" Mercury asked.

"I don't see why not. I'll just write them down so I don't accidentally trigger them," Ben said as he took out a pen and paper.

After a few seconds, Ben handed Mercury a sheet of paper with several of the Omnitrix command codes that he knew of. Looking down the list, Mercury read out loud a specific command code that interested him.

"Command function override: code 10," Mercury said, "Initiate self-destruct. Command code: 000-destruct 0."

"Omnitrix set to self-destruct in T minus sixty seconds," the Omnitrix said in response to Mercury's voice.

The hourglass design formed by the green lines on the faceplate began to blink orange, indicating the self-destruct count down.

"What and how?" Ben panicked, "Abort self-destruct code 10!"

"Self-destruct sequence aborted," the Omnitrix said as it returned to its faceplate normal, steady, image.

"What was that all about?" Ben asked as he rubbed his head in confusion.

Part 3: Wrong Number

Ben was just minding his own business, playing one of his many Sumo Slammers Video Games when suddenly, he heard his Scroll ring. Not bothering to look at the number, Ben picked up the Scroll and answered the caller casually.

"You've got Ben 10," Ben said.

"Yes Mercury, we all know you have a spot on Ben Tennyson impression," Cinder said from the other end of the line.

"No, seriously, this is Ben," Ben responded confused, "I think you have the wrong number."

"Now is not the time for jokes, Mercury," Cinder answered sternly, clearly convinced it was Mercury she was talking to, "Have you taken care of your chores for my nefarious plan?"

"Excuse me?" Ben asked dumbfound.

"Are you serious?" Cinder responded with irritation, "You were supposed to make sure that we had enough Grimm in storage so we could release them into Beacon during the Vytal Festival."

"Um, Cinder?" Emerald said from behind Cinder.

Turning around, Cinder saw Emerald standing alongside Mercury. Both had very worried expressions on their faces over the conversation Cinder was having on her Scroll. Cinder looked back and forth between Mercury and the Scroll several times, growing more concerned with every glance.

"So, I can call Team RWBY, the faculty, the cops, the military, or I could just come arrest you all myself," Ben said from his end of the line, "Your choice."

However, Ben did not get an answer, as Cinder quickly hung up the Scroll to panic with her underlings.


I hope that got a laugh out of all of you. I promised you all a Yuri Lowenthal themed chapter, and I hope i delivered. Don't worry about Mercury possibly taking advantage of the Omnitrix voice command in 'Remnantverse,' that was just a gag exclusive to this comedy driven timeline. Leave a review if you'd like, and future chapter theme ideas are always welcome.
