Plot

The team is shown to be hanging out at Mr. Smoothy when SevenSeven attacks them. It turns out he escaped from the Null Void. Ben transforms into Swampfire and defeats SevenSeven with a powerful fire blast. Later, Gwen uses her powers and discovers that SevenSeven's energy trail started at a nearby warehouse. The team goes to the warehouse and discovers that the DNAliens are releasing Charmcaster from the Null Void. Ben then transforms into Echo Echo. Charmcaster casts Gwen with a KO spell and she uses a freezing spell on Kevin. Echo Echo duplicates himself to surround Charmcaster and tells her that she is going back into the Null Void. He looks over and sees the DNAliens tossing Kevin and Gwen into the Null Void. He duplicates himself even more and uses a powerful sonic scream on Charmcaster which defeats her. Then, Ben transforms into Jetray and leaps into the Null Void to rescue Kevin and Gwen. At first, Jetray can't find them but soon hears them. Jetray rescues them and they escape the Null Void. Gwen finds that the weather has changed from sunny to cold. Gwen spots the DNAliens using a huge weather machine and there are several ships hovering above them. It turns out that Charmcaster and SevenSeven were used by the Highbreed to distract the team while they built the weather machine. Ben transforms into Swampfire, Gwen creates an orb of manna and Kevin absorbs metal from a stop sign. Swampfire uses his vines to destroy the weather machine and the team defeats the Highbreed.
