I was re-watching Ben 10 Alien Force and Ultimate Alien the other day and I got this amazing idea for a fan fiction. It's my first actual fan fiction and I'm planning on making it long. If there any mistakes please let me know! Ugh, I'm honestly so excited for this!
Fear…
A common word for the people of Bellwood.. Well not just Bellwood, more like the whole Universe.
Everyone remembers it, the freedom and the happiness.
The streets used to be alive… I mean people still go out but it's not the same anymore.
Years ago, a powerful man named Hex, decided that he craved more power. All he really wanted was to be the strongest man in the universe and he wanted everyone to fear him.
Luckily for him, he wasn't alone, he had his niece Charmcaster, who turned out to be as evil and powerful as him.
Their plan was simple: Scare people who have powers and force to join them. Death waited those who refused.
Some people had no problem with joining them, getting paid for killing people wasn't that bad for them.
Some other people, managed to hide but were soon found. Hex found a young man, called Michael Morningstar, who had the "gift" of absorbing energy out of people and with his help they had so much power, they were unstoppable.
People feared them, they had no one to rescue them and if they didn't obey him they were tortured and eventually killed. No one really wanted that, they had other things to worry about, like keeping their loved ones safe.
He was pleased, he was powerful and there were no other people with powers left to at least try and stop him.
Or at least that's what he thought…
Two people, two young people managed to survive from his devious plans but of course he didn't know that.
The boy, Kevin, saw his powers more like a curse. There was a point where he actually feared…himself. He was a Osmosian and they're well-known for absorbing.
No, he wasn't like Michael Morningstar. He could absorb energy but he wasn't living off it, therefore, he didn't really need it. But he's lost control of his powers far too many times… He tried to absorb energy once, out of curiosity, and things turned out terrible for him. His Osmosian side took over and he became what he called, a monster.
It took him a few years but he managed to get his old self back. He wasn't exactly interested in energy anymore after that, so he stuck to absorbing things that didn't drive him crazy like metal, wood, stone and plastic.
He wasn't the kind of person who would back off without even trying and he was definitely not feared of Hex but even a guy like Kevin, wasn't stupid enough to know that, attacking Hex on his own was straight up suicide.
The girl, Gwen found her powers fascinating. She didn't fear them but she was mostly scared what would happen if someone found out about them. It was hard for her to keep them hidden, she was an Anodite. Glowing pink energy wasn't exactly easy to hide.
Considering that Hex destroyed any educational place Gwen liked to spend her time reading books and she was actually really smart.
She wanted to try and fight Hex but people around her told her that it would be suicide. She knew it herself but she still wanted to try. She didn't want to live like a "prisoner" her whole life, waiting until the day she dies.
But she never went to find him. No, she wasn't a coward but she didn't want to put her family in danger.
They never knew each other and they both thought they were the only ones with powers.
They were wrong…
