I thought of it First

"What is this?" Azmuth asked approaching.

"Ben has added a redundancy into his body so the main unit can be adjusted without reseting." Paradox said "This is the timeline Ben currently resides in. One where he was crushed by the prototype when it was sent to earth."

Azmuth watched with a sadness in his chest. The young man had turned into a grandchild of sorts to him.

"Now that you are caught up on the important things Ben has called out your alternative self."

"Yes it is something I am looking forward to." Azmuth said "If this timeline follows true I'd be on Xenon still."

"Albedo is that you?!" Azmuth burst out laughing as they materialized near the RV.

"This one my Azmuth?" Ben asked looking to Paradox getting a nod "Ok since your here let me get changed."

"Ultimate Graymatter."

Azmuth stopped laughing when the gray and blue augmentations illuminated the area. "Your new design is in all ways a downgrade."

"Enlighten me on why?" Azmuth said crossing his arms. He knew from the quick stop at the alternative timeline but wanted to here this.

"The Ultimatrix is a rip off but sometimes the original isn't always better." Ultimate Graymatter said "Build Quality maybe bad but the results out preform anything before it."

"Am I to assume it's the evolution feature?" Azmuth asked.

"If I was in my monkey brained form yes However the Ultimatrix is the one that feels like I am progressing."Ultimate Graymatter said "Honestly I'd be happy with the clothes feature to be returned and for you to never touch it again."

"I see." Azmuth said "So what are your goals? If you intend to stay in this universe you need a reason."

"The reason is obvious." Ultimate Graymatter said "Because there's nothing left for me to do in my home universe. There's no room for me to work. To actually progress."

"There is plenty you could do." Azmuth said.

"Really? If I went right back to my earth could I actually make it as a Plumber? Could I actually do more good then harm?"

Azmuth was silent.

"Who is that?" Gwen whispered to Albedo.

"The creator of the Omnitrix." Albedo said "This one seems different from the one I know."

"The disconnection from Primus-"

"Not an issue." Ultimate Graymatter said.

"There can only be one Omnitrix." Azmuth said.

"One linked to Primus." Ultimate Graymatter corrected "The Secondary Core is enough to prevent the feedback."

"The evolution feature is just begging for trouble." Azmuth said.

"Hard times makes strong men." Ultimate Graymatter said "After the war I've spent the majority of my time doing nothing. I ended up breaking the prototype. I need to keep doing something Azmuth."

"Very well." Azmuth said "How about we sit down and discuss exactly what you'd like me to change about the Ultimatrix."

"As I've said all I need from you is the clothes feature." Ultimate Graymatter said "And maybe a danger mode like if I am underwater or in space."

"Easily done." Azmuth said "My True design is a more compact design."

"Your talking to the guy who still uses a phone with an AUX cord." Ultimate Graymatter said "I ain't replacing or upgrading until it blows up in my pocket. If it works leave it alone."
