Eon (Universe 3008)

## Eon

* OS1 (RAT)
* OS2

**Eon** is a former enemy of Ben now ally and current leader of his people, the Chronians, on their now restored planet of Chronia. He serves as the DNA source for the Omnitrix's DNA sample of a Chronian, Neon.

## Appearance

Young Eon (as presented in the flashbacks) wore a brown-purple toga-like outfit beneath a grey robe with folded sleeves and laceless black shoes. He had fair skin, bright purple eyes and a fade buzz haircut.

In Race Against Time, Eon wore a black bodysuit with a matching trench coat over it, black chrono-conductive gauntlets with bright purple highlights on them, and a black helmet with a purple-tinted visor. An illusion of him that appeared earlier in the movie had it's visor colored in an abyssal hue of black, whereas his was colorless throughout the whole movie. As his powers started to weaken and age him, his skin started taking an increasingly pasty tinge of white, becoming more and more wrinkly as time based. Maroon marks started appearing beneath his bloodshot eyes and his teeth had begun deteriorating to the point where they had become yellow and sunken.

After being hurled into the Hands of Armageddon and across cross-time by Wildmutt his general appearance seems to have stagnated as his powers no longer appeared to have any negative effect on him, albeit, he was still much weaker than he used to be and was not able to perform greater feats without tiring out. He now has grayish-white skin, dark marks under his eyes, and black lips. It is implied that his original suit deteriorated severely and he had to "patch it up" personally with whatever he had. When he reappeared Active Shock: Part 1 he wore a black and purple bodysuit with a silver collar that covered his entire neck, a black trench coat with silver shoulder pads and a pair of silver boots. He seemed to have lost the gauntlet on his right arm but retained the one on the left arm.

## History

### Background

Eon was a young Chronian warrior sent out to find a new place for his people to call home after the Chronians had used their powers to place themselves in another dimension to escape the effects of time, but wound up stuck there. Eon was entrusted with the Hands of Armageddon, a powerful device capable of freeing the Chronians from their inter-dimensional entrapment. Intend on freeing his people at any cost, he arrived on Earth 200 years ago to activate the Hands of Armageddon and start the Chronians' invasion. However, he was captured by the first Plumbers and placed in cryogenic freezing for the following two centuries. The Kim Labs facility was the last known location he was being held at before breaking out and aging his guardian, Constantine Jacobs, to near-death. The rest of the plumbers stationed at the Kim Labs facility were enslaved, twisted and mutated into radges who'd serve as his henchmen.

### Ben 10

Eon first appeared in Race Against Time, where he sent a decoy illusion of himself to wreck havoc on Bellwood as a means of luring Ben and testing his powers and skills. Eon watched from a rooftop as Heatblast single handedly set ablaze his facsimile of himself and defeated his henchmen.

Sometimes after Eon had set base inside the clock tower down the street from where Heatblast had defeated his minions and decoy. As they came in to report of Ben's whereabouts Eon was struck by an intense abdominal pain. One of his henchmen tried to give him a hand but Eon blasted him away. When his other henchmen jumped in to help their fallen comrade Eon ordered them to let him die, reminding them that they are to serve him and not each other. Realizing that he doesn't have much time left, Eon decides to speed up his plans. He creates an energy orb before his frightened underlings, proudly announcing the "awakening" of his people which is to come.

Later he arrives at the Plumber's base beneath Miller's hardware store where the Hands of Armageddon are kept. Eon tries to power up the Hands, but to no avail. He has grown too weak and old to active the Hands who need the full power of a young Chronian in order to become active. He sees the Omnitrix on Ben's wrist and immediately seizes him. Eon brings him outside while his minions keep the Plumbers occupied. Ben manages to free himself from Eon's grip and runs away. Using his technokinesis, Eon takes remote control of a car and uses it to chase off Ben into an alley between buildings. Eon makes clear to Ben what his intentions are, he wants the Omnitrix, but before he can do anything Eon is shot at several times by a plumber who took notice of the situation. He chooses to make no opposition and disappears into a purple mist.

Eon tries to make his next move at Ben's school, Madison Elementary. He catches sight of principal White and Ben discussing in the gym and decides that it's the best moment to strike. He sends principal White flying into a box of balls while he again tries to seize control of the Omnitrix. Ben quickly transforms into Diamondhead and the two fight but not for long as when the alarm sounds both of them have no choice but to leave.

Discontent and desperate, Eon decides to take a more radical path. He destroys the Rust Bucket, luring out the Tennysons. After a grueling battle with Unravel, Gwen and Grandpa Max he finally gets the best of the three.

At Miller's hardware store (or rather beneath), Eon chains up the Tennysons whilst the rest of the Plumbers are trapped in another room within the base. He goes back and forth, explaining his true purpose on Earth. He states that the Omnitrix's 10 minute time limiter is a fail-safe meant to prevent the total takeover of the wielder by the alien DNA held within. A fail-safe which can easily be overridden by someone who knows the Omnitrix as intimately as he does. He goes on to state that he came on Earth in a desperate mission to rescue his people, but in order to do so he needed to find Ben who is addled by Eon's rambling, not knowing what any of this has to do with him. Eon then discloses him full stratagem to Ben.

Agh! My time...is almost over, but i will be reborn in you and have the strength to power the Hands of Armageddon and open a time rift to my dying world, putting an end to yours! You will no longer be a simple, helpless child, but a god! Not for mere moments, but for infinity!

He is no longer young, his constant leaps through time have aged and weakened his body to the point where he can no longer active the Hands on his own. He intends to make himself a new young body through the Omnitrix. Due to his powers over matter Eon was able to retain his consciousness and personality into his DNA that he inserted into an empty DNA pod of the Omnitrix, and with the fail-safe deactivated, Eon assured that Ben could no longer revert back to human automatically, staying as a Chronian, as him, for infinity. Eon thanks Ben, now permanently stuck as a Chronian, before leaving as "Two cannot exist in one world".

The younger Eon activates the Hands, making way for the Chronians to Earth. He is confronted by Grandpa Max and Gwen and, after snapping back to reality, Ben willingly reverts back to human. Sensing that the Hands have been deactivated, Eon comes back enraged to confront Ben one last time before being hurled into the Hands of Armageddon and across cross-time by Wildmutt. It is unknown what exactly happened to him afterwards but being thrown into the Hands seems to have stopped the accelerated aging process caused by his power which affected him. Albeit, he remained marred, and could no longer use his powers to the same extent.

Eon reappeared in Active Shock: Part 1, humiliated and at wit's end, he tries to take a different approach and have Ben willingly help him. He appears at Ben's house and offers to cook for Sandra and Carl who believe him to be another one of Ben's superpowered friends. When Ben had finally returned from Pyros, he wasn't very pleased to see him.
