As ben sat in his room he couldn't help but be nerves he knew attea was coming to earth the problem he didn't know exactly when. The only way for him to deal with this stress was for him to play every sumo slammer game he had to get his mind off his worries. Just as he was about to finish part 4 the communicator in the omintrix went off.

"this is ben go ahead."

"ben its your grandpa max."

"oh hey grandpa what's up?"

"an incursean ship has been spotted I'm calling an emergency meeting now."

"here we go."

Later…

In the bowels of the plumbers' headquarters. The members of the plumbers were called in for an emergency meeting now that an incursean ship has cloaked and landed on the outskirts of Bellwood. Every plumber that is stationed on earth was called in thru portals, and transports

Ben on the other hand had no problem but has some doubt into what will happen next. Right now, Gwen, Kevin, Rook, and Lucy are all called in from nearby locations.

Max was in the center of the plumbers' headquarters and began to talk.

"Alright everyone settle down. As far as you know the incurseans have been spotted at Bellwood last night. Remember these are ruthless, and desperate known conquest addictive species in the galaxy. Proceed with caution. Rule number 1 stay in groups, rule number 2 make sure to stay in the perimeter, and make sure no incursean soldiers leave the Bellwood perimeter. Rule number 3 please be careful out there. All right meeting adjourned"

Then suddenly, the doors open in a mist. After the impact of an explosion just like what happen during the first invasion. The out of the mist appeared the new incursean Empress, Attea

The plumbers locked their guns in front of the Empress and her guards.

"No offense Magister but you really gotta beef up your security around here" She said in a mocking tone. As she walks Ben, Gwen and Lucy prepared for the worst as she walks and continue her rant.

"I mean seriously have you ever consider traps. Or maybe a black hole generator.
not to brag but I have 5 of them.

As she walks plumbers pointed their guns in front of her, but without a problem she bent backwards like a contestant at a limbo contest leaving the two plumbers shock.

Then the next wave which was Ben, his two cousins, and Kevin.

"Tennyson's, Eleven. Blonko, and uh the girl with yellow hair"

"I'm Lucy Tennyson"

"I Didn't ask" She said in a stern tone

The group weren't joking around as they prepared for any strike. For Ben he had to follow procedure as well. Even though he trusts Attea he doesn't want to take any chances.

Attea smirk and scoffed "As much as I want to play right now, but I have more important matters. So, step aside, and we'll call it a tie ok?"

As they charge their weapons Max spoke

"Stop let her pass"

The plumbers hesitated but did what their leader said As Attea continue to walk forward max continued to talk

"Attea what business do you have here. May I remind you of the truce we made after your father tried to invade earth. Don't consider whatever your planning can allow you to escape your charges. If you do you'll be with your father inside of the same cell.

"Not in a million years you ol… I mean magister, and I've come to discuss some more negotiations to our truce".

As everyone sat in a meeting room attea was sitting on one end of the table while max & the plumbers were on the other end.

Rook: Why would Attea wanted to talk to the Magister?

Kevin: Probably she wants to expand her empires borders.

Gwen: Whatever it is. I hope it doesn't cause another invasion. I'd hate not showering a month again. What do you think Ben

Ben wasn't paying attention instead he was looking at Attea talking to her guards. He remembered about the note she sent him and she wanted to set some terms with Grandpa max. But what were the terms she was talking about?

Ben! Ben!

Oh.. uh sorry Gwen I was

Shh lower your voices. The magister is about to speak

"ok talk…" Max said

"look since I took uhh…over I've been dealing with certain problems…"

"like…" He interrupted her

Attea grits her teeth a bit not wanting to get angry easily. "there are factions out there that used to be part of the Incursion empire that don't exactly agree with my rule some that who are trying to challenge my birthright."

"and?" He interrupted again

At this point she is starting to turn red. "I figured that if I can offer something they want they'd be willing to follow my rule."

"which is." He interrupted.

"LET ME FINISH!" She yelled out of frustration. Before she realizes that she caused most of the plumbers to point their weapons at her. She blushes a bit of embarrassment, and took a breath to relax herself.

"a new home…" Which causes most of the plumbers to become shocked with disbelief.

"what?" Max spoke out of curiosity

"look I know you guys are pals with the Galvans…so with your recommendation you can get them to make a new planet for us… my people are tired of roaming the galaxies even the ones who oppose my empire. With a new home world, they'd be willing to turn on their leader & rejoin the empire.

"Your majesty I believe that would be an issue, and I don't see why would the Galvans would do anything for the likes of you." Max said.

Rook spoke "To be fair. The Galvan head scientist, Azmuth was somewhat responsible for the destruction of the former incursion home world."

"But if you want a world for your own. You're going to have to follow our terms."

"Which is?"

"We want the planets, and home worlds your father had conquered out of the incursion empire. And to make sure you don't go back into expanding your empire. We demand that you surrender all your ships, weapons, and other related equipment your using. Above all your…"

"Hang on a second. But first did you actually prepared a list or something about your terms?… Anyway If I do that than then you'll chase another civil war. You know how many citizens of my empire depend on the armada. Which also caused the Civil war in the first place" She said and she rubs the back of her head "At least that's what we can remember from our history. "Anyway point being if we surrender our weapons we'd be defenseless.

"sorry but those are the condition."

"ok here's how that's not going to work 1. If I just gave up my weapons my subjects would turn against me & side with those usurpers thinking I'm weak, 2 even if that doesn't happen the empire made too many enemies under my dad's rule if they find out we're defenseless it will be massive genocide…Vilgax has already threatened us not too long ago.

"what about the planets under your rule."

"that will have to take some time, those resources are still needed but if we had our own home world I can start the process…. still save time"

"how."

"simple I will simply inform my generals that those planners are no longer useful & that we're leaving to rebuild the new plant that we are talking about right now.

"that doesn't convince me that you won't go back on your word. Need I remind you that you almost cause a panic during your last encounter here on earth. Not to mention what you and Looma did almost had us on the verge of shooting down your armada"

"Ok first off that was just a minor mistake and.."

Patelliday posted on the screen a recorded fight between her, and Ben who was in his Bullfrag form.

"hey I kept my word about threatening earth cut me some slack here. Also that was..

"Also What was that fight about" Patelliday ask out of curiosity.

"That not important, and don't change the subject. I'm repurposing the armada for defense not conquering."

"do you really expect us to by that…"

"hey I gave my word not having Earth not long ago. that should be worth something. Besides I kept my empire to itself. Ever Since I became Empress I made it perfectly clear that those who messes with the Empire messes with me"

Max smirked a bit "Then how come you didn't fight Looma?"

Then out of nowhere the Plumbers started to burst into laughter. While the two of her guards where chuckling a bit. Her face turned a little red, and pointed her guns at the screen and shot the screen greeting the plumbers attention.

"about as much as Vilgax."

"who do you think you are…comparing me to him!"

"To be fair you did try to kill Vilgax and take over his planet.

"That was my daddy's fault not mine"

"You did most of his dirty work"

"You know what I'm wasting my time here.

"Good riddance"

"WAIT!" yelled ben

Both parties turned to ben who decided to step in & calm down the situation before it got worse.

"look these negotiations are not going anywhere. Look I know there's been bad blood between the plumbers and the Incursean empire, and I think we should stop focusing on Mileous actions. Well even though Attea did manipulated all of offense."

"Non taken, Ape" Atea said as she looks at her nails

"first off where missing our 3rd party. I mean Azmuth is tied towards the dilemma. After all like what Rook said Azmuth did well not entirely or unintentionally destroyed the Incursion home world. So in fair speaking he kinda owes the incursean empire. They want a home and we want them to stop expanding their Empire.

. So I suggest we postpone any more talks till we get azmath here."

"fine." They both agreed

"however, until we contact him I suggest that your ship leaves the planet & you remain at HQ with all your weapons confiscated."

"you're crazy if you think I'm just gonna stay here defenseless with a bunch of trigger happy plumbers."

"well it's only a matter of time before your ship is discovered & you can't go out in public considering the invasion."

"look why doesn't she stay with someone." Said ben

"well she can't stay with me…I already have a roommate back in my dorm." Said Gwen

"my place only has room for me & my car." Informed kevin

"fine then I'll stay with ben…"

Everyone looked at her which she rolled eyes before talking again to justify her statement.

"look you if you guys want me to give up my gear then I'll have to stay with someone who can watch my back, and besides he's not that dangerous

The plumbers started to chuckle a bit.

Everyone then turned to ben who then with an exasperated look on his face decided to just roll with it.

"fine she can stay in the spare room…kevin I'm going to need your id mask"

"I'd mask? Wait aren't those the same technology the high breed used to disguise themselves when they tryed to invade earth?"
Kevin gives Ben the mask.
"Yes and now since you are going to stay here for right now" gives her the mask, and she backs away."

"Hey there is no way I'm gonna turn into one of you apes."

"not much of a choice there is still too much bad blood from the invasion…you won't even be safe even in undertown."

"this way you can move around without causing a panic." informed

"or don't wear it." Said gwen

"and spend the rest of your time here cooped up in plumber HQ or Ben's house." Finished kevin

Taking a moment attea went over her options, she didn't want to wear the mask but didn't want to hurt her chances of getting a new planet for her people.

"fine I'll wear the stupid mask…"

"not so fast…" said max

"what now I said I'd wear it."

There is still the matter of your ship."

"fine…"

Pulling out her communicator radioing in to her crew who was waiting for her signal.

"this is empress attea…do you read me?"

"loud & clear are we departing soon empress."

"you are but not me…"

"I don't understand."

"my mission on earth is not done yet so I'll be staying longer to complete it you guys are heading back to the empire to inform the rest…also don't contact me unless it is important am I clear."

"very we're heading out…"

With that attea closed the calms & turned back toward max, with a serious look on her face,

"there they are leaving now can you hand over the mask."

Outside of Bellwood…

As the crew that came with attea prepared to leave one of the crew member snuck away pulling out a red communicator.

"this is spy frog…do you read?"

"yes what is the status of the mission."

"I have just learned that attea is sending her crew back to the empire while she finishes her secret mission."

"interesting so now the only things standing between my rise to the throne are the plumbers & Ben 10."

"yes sir…"

"Good it can work with this."

"what shall I do now sir."

"proceed as normal my men & I will handle the rest."

"yes, sir out…" he said cutting transmission

Elsewhere…

Somewhere in space a rouge incursean ship sits & waits before blasting off for planet earth.
