History[]
Race Against Time[]
Summer's over and Ben is back to school. Ben is disappointed that he's not able to tell anyone about his adventures or the Omnitrix. Ben was expecting another boring school year. However, things changed when Eon came in the day before the first day of school causing a fight between him and Heatblast. Heatblast seemingly beats him. Throughout the movie, Ben was always being chased by Eon, who wanted Ben's young power to activate the Hands of Armageddon, causing a 24-hour guard over Ben. In the film's climax, Eon managed to take over Ben however thanks to Gwen, Ben managed to overcome Eon's personality and managed to stop the Chronian invasion.
