Anodite hybrid

(Gwen's P.O.V.)

I sat in front of the computer doing my homework. I scanned the textbook carefully then looked at the screen. I sighed shaking my head. My body wanted to rest so much right now but I had two exams tomorrow and with my work for the Plumbers I had gotten nearly three hours to none.

The door opened beside me. I turned immediately to see my mother coming in.

"Gwen I know this is short notice but your cousin Sunny is coming over tomorrow."

I immediately let out a sigh. Sunny had nearly gone on a warpath with her boyfriend Anthony."

"Now I know things didn't go well last time."

"That's an understatement. I had to get Grandma Verdona involved."

Mom sat on the bed then turned to me "I'm sorry but she won't be alone this time coming here. Your grandmother is dropping off another one of your cousins."

I raised an eyebrow "Is he another Anodite?"

"Thankfully not. As far as they can tell he doesn't look any different from you or me."

I walked over and sat on the bed "What do you mean?"

"The reason he's coming is because he's frightened."

"Of who?"

"Anodites along with other beings. His mother won't tell who the father was."

I folded my arms slightly "Can I alert Ben and Kevin at least?"

"She already called us."

I looked up to see Kevin and Ben. Both with sacks slung over their shoulders.

"We're spending the night here." Ben said "I have a feeling Anthony and Sunny will be another handful."

"But this new player's going to be the one to watch." Kevin said "We know he's powerful but how power is he?"

Mom rose "Just try to get some sleep. Gwen tomorrow you three get ready to greet them. Your father and I will both be gone."

"Gone where?"

"I've got a business trip for three days your father has to go take care of some business that may lead to a trip the next day. He'll be late so tomorrow your alone with your cousins and boyfriend."

I sighed laying back as she closed the door. I wasn't going to be able to get my homework done now."

"Julie will be bringing over Ship." Ben said "They might even the odds against our opponents we may be facing."

Kevin tossed out a bedroll "Doesn't matter much. Last time we were unprepared. Sunny won't have a chance to catch us off guard again."

I watched them then shook my head. Ben placed a hand on my shoulder.

"Let's get some rest. Hopefully this whole thing isn't a major mission."

I hope Ben was right. But I had the feeling it was going to be one.

The next morning I woke up in my evening gown. I grabbed my clothes out of the closet and walked to the bathroom. I showered off and got dress then went downstairs. Mom had been right she and Dad were long gone by the time I had come down there.

I went toward the kitchen when someone knocked on the door. I rolled my eyes slightly. My hair was still down so it was more wild then I cared to be seen in.

"It's open."

Grandma Verdona walked in "Hello Gwen."

I smiled "Hello Grandma."

She moved aside revealing Sunny and a boy that was no older than ten. I walked toward him. He looked at me carefully moving behind Grandma a bit. I turned to Grandma.

"What is his name?"

"Blitz was the name his mother gave us." Verdona said "I'm hoping being here may put him at ease more and help him come out. After all you both look alike race wise."

Sunny rolled her eyes "This place is so boring."

"You're not allowed to use your powers Sunny." I said calmly "Especially after the last time you came here to Earth."

She smiled "Anthony will be coming for me. We love each other too much."

I rolled my eyes then noticed something in Blitz's hands. I walked up slowly then knelt in front of him looking at the badge carefully.

"Blitz is that a Plumber's badge?"

He looked at it than me. He didn't speak only looked at me carefully.

"Grandma!"

"Hello Ben." Grandma Verdona said "Been keeping out of trouble."

"As much as we can."

She turned to me "You know Gwen when you're done here with these two you could come back with me to Anodine."

"I'm sorry Grandma but no. I enjoy my life here."

"Had to try one last time."

She began rising when Blitz ran to her taking her hand.

"Please take me back to my Mom!"

Grandma looked at him then knelt down looking at him eye level "Don't worry. In a few weeks I'll be back to take you to her. It's for the best that you spend some time here darling. You need to learn to come out of that shell."

"I want to go see my Mom!"

She held him as he cried trying to calm him down. This kid must have really been scared to be so far away from his mother. Verdona sighed then picked Blitz up. He had fallen asleep.

Sunny smiled slightly "Finally what a relief. The little brat's finally sent himself to sleep. Now we can have some fun."

Verdona shot her a venomous look then held Blitz out for me to take. I held his unconscious form in my arms. Grandma walked up closer.

"He's scared of Anodites that use their powers fully around him. He only trusts me because I appeared like him and used a tiny bit of my powers each time I visited. It took me three years to get him to trust me enough to bring him here."

I looked at his face then her "Any idea who the father is?"

"The only reason he has the Plumber's Badge is because his mother and him were found somewhere too weak and the Plumbers brought them to our world. To be honest I'm not sure what will happen or why he carries the badge. But it's more of a toy a Plumber gave to him smiling. He's kept it with him. One of the few things he has with him."

She floated up "See you later kiddos."

She vanished completely. Kevin came up looking at Blitz.

"Wonder if he's got Anodite powers?"

"No he's just a scared human child." Sunny said folding her arms "Even Anodites thought he shouldn't remain on our world."

Ben came up and scanned him with the Ultimatrix. He looked at the watch carefully.

"Homo-sapiens."

He sighed looking at Blitz "I guess he's human from what the Ultimatrix can tell us."

Sunny sat on the couch switching on the TV "Figures, that kid's scared of everything around him. Heck he's scared of me."

"That's because you don't know what it would be like for him!" Kevin snapped "Anodites are powerful and he's got nothing to hold his own against your race."

Sunny rolled her eyes "Doesn't matter."

I looked at him surprised. He seemed to defend the kid more than I thought he would. I walked up to the couch and set him down. The second I did though he shot up and moved to the corner of it looking at me scared. He scanned the room then seemed to shrink slightly trying to hide. He even grabbed the pillows and surrounded himself in them.

"No need to be scared." I said "We won't hurt you."

"I just want to go home."

I sighed then made my hand glow. He didn't speak only looked at my hand. I made it go out as he looked at me.

"Can you do that?"

He shook his head "No."

"Have you tried?" Kevin said "I mean do you even know what you can do?"

"I'll tell you what he can do." Sunny said "Absolutely nothing!"

She smiled a bit as she heard him cry. I sat down beside him trying to quiet him down.

"Don't worry. It'll be alright. You don't need to cry."

Ben stepped forward "Come on kid. No need to be scared."

He looked at Ben but I could still see the tears coming from his eyes. Ben switched on the Ultimatrix and hit it.

"Big Chill!"

He hovered then landed on the floor. I expected Blitz to scream but instead he stood up surprised immediately.

"Your him!"

I was surprised by the shout. Blitz leaped down off the couch looking at Big Chill carefully.

"What who am I?"

He looked at Ben carefully then hit did something with the center button.

"XLR8!"

XLR8 looked at himself then Blitz "Is this your father?"

Blitz shook his head "No it's not."

Sunny smiled "Hey kid."

He turned to her as she hurled a disc. He shot off fast dodging it like nothing before. He appeared behind her ready to run again. Ben looked at him confused.

"How did you?"

He shrugged "First time."

Sunny smiled "Now this is getting fun. Let's see what this kid's got."

He dodged her blasts as she hurled them at him without much of a problem. I scowled.

"Enough Sunny!"

She looked at me then Blitz as he turned back to normal "Why not do that to him? I mean all he does is run scared."

"He's just a kid right now. Besides you don't know what will happen when you continuously fight him around the house."

She smiled "Like you could stop me from fighting him if I wanted too."

"Not if he's got the power to destroy you." Kevin said calmly "We don't know what his powers are at the moment except that he's got them."

Sunny rolled her eyes then turned to the TV partially interested in a show "Whatever, let me know when you're going to fight something."

The sound of thunder came. I sighed shaking my head.

"Great a storm."

Ben folded his arms turning to normal "Well we're still here."

Kevin sat down on a recliner and put his arms behind his head setting the seat back.

"I'm going to catch some Zs."

I sat down as Blitz began hiding himself again. I sighed looking at him as he peered out from his fortress of pillows looking around nervously.

"Would you like to see more?"

He looked at me briefly then outside the window as lightning flashed "I don't know."

Sunny leaped in front in her full Anodite form "Boo!"

Blitz screamed his walls crumbling. He hid behind me immediately.

Ben rolled his eyes "Even when I was scared of clowns I wasn't this bad."

"Ben please. You're not helping here right now."

Sunny laughed "Gwen you should join in the fun. Scaring this kid is so fun to do."

I turned to Blitz only to find him holding me close his eyes closed. He looked up at me.

"I wanna go home!"

I sighed taking his hand "I've got an idea. What's your favorite game?"

He scratched his chin then looked outside before turning to me "Game?"

"You haven't played a game before?"

He shook his head "Nope."

Ben came up "Well perhaps I should introduce you to the video game."

"Ben no! Those might scare him."

He sighed sitting on the couch "Gwen perhaps we should let him experience things. See what scares him or not."

I looked at him then sighed sitting down "Alright we'll let him decide when to do something."

I opened my laptop and began working.

I shut my laptop cover. I looked at the clock. It was incredibly late. I yawned where I had the day gone. I went to get changed when I heard a massive explosion. I went toward the window and saw Dr. Animo coming toward us on a massive wolf creature.

I sighed as Ben and Kevin came out. I leaped out and walked down.

"You won't defeat me!" Animo shouted "Especially when you face my greatest creations."

I saw werewolves coming. Ben smiled then hit down.

"Wraith!?"

I raised my hands immediately "Ben don't hurt the creatures! Their innocent people! They've been transformed!"

He nodded then turned to Animo "Let me tell you something Animo! Wraith doesn't like it when Wraith can't punch anyone! So Wraith's gonna take it out on your face!"

He charged forward only to have some werewolves block protecting Animo from attack. Kevin was holding his own against these creatures.

I was about to fight when Sunny came out of the house.

"Yes something fun to do!"

She began hurling discs of energy at the werewolves ignoring the fact that they were humans. I immediately went to block them with my powers.

"Sunny don't hurt these people! Their innocent bystanders."

She smiled "As I said before you can't stop me."

She hit me to the ground with a single disc. I had forgotten how powerful she was. I let out a groan looking up weakly.

"Gwen!"

I turned to see Blitz. He dropped the badge his hands curled into his fists which glowed immediately with Anodite powers.

Sunny smiled "Finally got a spine?"

He vanished immediately reappearing briefly. I got up weakly as Sunny forced me down. I felt the pressure hurting.

I let out a cry. I felt my body being crushed by some hand I couldn't see behind me. That is until it stopped. I got up weakly and saw something I never thought I'd see.

"Benwolf?"

The wolf like creature turned to me then Sunny with its face twisted into a snarl. Sunny smiled then set out ribbons of powers. He shot his hand forward making lightning from the storm hit the streams of energy blocking them.

Sunny scowled slightly "Who are you?"

"He's not Wraith!"

I turned to see Wraith holding a limp Animo in one of his hands. Kevin walked up as the wolf being looked at us. It's head turned back to Sunny. It focused hard then made lightning hit it. I stood up as he grew larger his muscles stronger.

He let out a howl then lunged. Sunny hit him hard sending him flying into the street. He rolled before he got up on all fours. It closed its eyes then transformed into a fully grown man. He scowled then cracked his neck preparing to do something.

"Let's see how you like this one!"

He spouted wings behind him and grew larger again. Sunny scowled slightly.

"Who are you?"

"Does it matter? You wanted to fight me energy being so let's fight!?"

He shot up and punched her hard sending her flying like nothing at all. Kevin came up beside me.

"Gwen do you think that's even possible?"

I didn't answer. I watched this guy pick her up and hurl her like a missile into a wall easily. He marched toward her as she got up from the severe blows. She hurled blasts of energy but he seemed to shrug them off like nothing.

He looked at her then turned to me. He smiled turning normal. His eyes glowed purple though revealing what was underneath.

"An Anodite." Ben said "Wonder what his name is?"

He closed his eyes changing them back. He looked at us then tore off.

"Hey wait!"

We chased after him toward the backyard only to find Blitz standing there. He held a broken Plumber's badge in his hand. He sighed then tossed it aside. He looked at us then the ground.

I walked up and picked him up.

"It's been fun and all but I have to go." Kevin said "Work and all."

"Yeah I'm meeting Julie for some homework." Ben said "Will you be alright with Sunny and Blitz all by yourself?"

"I guess. I'll call if things go from bad to worse."

I turned to Blitz but he was gone. I looked around briefly and saw him walking inside. I went after him and spotted Sunny on the couch fuming.

"That guy will get it when Anthony gets here!" She said "He'll put him through a lot worst when he hears of this."

"He's a brute." I said calmly "I doubt what he can do will be a match for that person. This guy looks like he can handle his own against Anodites and more."

She stuck out her tongue and turned to Blitz. She smiled then hurled an energy blast at him. I threw one of my own but it did nothing.

His eyes lit up and he stopped the blast. He scowled looking at the Plumber's badge in his hand. He was trying to fix it. I walked up and sighed.

"I'm not sure if this is fixable."

"It is." He whispered "Dad told me they all were."

I looked at him carefully "Who is he?"

He looked at me then sighed turning to the badge "I don't want to talk about him. I never have a reason or want too."

"Why is he ugly?" Sunny said mockingly "He from some level one technology world where they are so easy to harm?"

I was about to snap when Blitz turned to her.

"No his world doesn't have technology nor do they need it. They don't need it and never will for their entire lives."

I turned to him "What is the world your father lived on?"

He looked at me then the badge "It doesn't have a name. But we were found several light-years away from Galvin by the Plumbers when we had to leave."

I sighed "Did you see any stars?"

He looked at me then forward "No the clouds and trees hid them from us but the things there were amazing. Dad always knew what to do. He taught me so much about it."

"About what?"

He looked at the badge falling silent. I rose up and sighed.

"I'll order dinner."

Sunny smiled "Why? We can feed off the manna of things around us."

"I don't think Blitz is one of us and that means he has to eat." I said calmly "Besides even I have to eat while in this form. You're the only one that doesn't need to eat."

"How come you still have to eat even though you're an Anodite?"

I shot her a look then picked up the phone "Because this is my body. I don't have one made fully of energy."

"You can't make your body can you?"

I froze immediately "What does that mean?"

She smiled turning to me "Your just scared of your own powers aren't you? Afraid of trying let out all your Anodite."

I set down the phone "You want to play that game."

"Of course. Your just a hybrid right now!"

I looked at her then scowled furious.
