A Magical Alien Summer

EP 1: The legend of Dan 10

In deep space, a battle was taking place in an asteroid field. In it, a smaller, green alien ship was being attack by a bigger, more menacing, red ship that was firing at it. The little ship returned fire, damaging the big ship.

On the red ship's bridge, Alarms rang as humanoid orange and red drones reports. "Hull damage: 20%! But the systems are still operational." In a giant captain's chair, a tall green alien with red and black armor with spiky shoulder pads and fore guards and fingerless gloves sat in it. His head had tentacles for a beard and on the back, giving an octopus-like look, Red glowing eyes, Black lips with sharp teeth and a bizarre green device on its sides and around the back.

"I've had come too far to be denied!" He snarls out as his ship gave chase out of the field. "The Omnitrix will be mine! And there is not a being in the universe that dares stand in my way!"


On a bus that is heading towards a forest, the driver calls out to the sole passenger. "Well, we're almost there, kid! 'Camp Everfree'! You're really lucky to come here!" The passenger is a bored 10-year old boy that has brown spiky hair kept under his black and green beanie cap. He is wearing a black t-shirt with cyber green lines and a green 10 in center with matching pants. He has a silver Necklace with a green emerald around his neck and wears Black and white sneakers.

He opens his green eyes from his nap and sighs out as he watches out the window. "Yeah, 'lucky'." Dan Tennyson mumbles out as he prepares for the most boring summer vacation ever.


The bus pulled into the campgrounds, passing a limo before parking. "Well, this is it! You're parents payed the fare, so off you go, kid." The driver calls out as Dan gathers his backpack and his duffel bag. He then walks out of the bus, stepping off and looking at the camp before sighing out.

He then walks towards it as the bus leaves. "Well, this is it. The start of the worst summer ever." Dan said as he walks in the grounds. He notices a bunch of teens walking towards to the tenting area, all holding bags as some of them talk.

Just then, a teen girl with pale pink skin and rose colored hair, that has a flower crown and braid in it, approaches the kid. "Excuse me, little boy. Are you lost, by any chance?" "Okay, 2 things: 1. I'm 10! 2. I'm looking for someone named, 'Celestia'."

"Oh, okay. And sorry about the 'little' comment. HEY, CELESTIA!" She calls out, making an adult woman in her mid 40s run up to her, also attracting the attention of another adult and a teen boy. The woman had almost white, skin and hair that is pink, light blue and green with 3 small points sticking up on top. "Yes, Gloriosa?" "This boy was looking for you."

Dan dug into his pockets and pulled his cell phone, making a FaceTime call as he shows a picture of a elder man with grey hair in his late 50's. "Hey, Celestia! Been awhile, haven't it?" Celestia and the blue skin woman gasps in surprise at the old man. "Max Tennyson! It's been years!" "How are you, cousin?"

"Pretty good, Luna! Retirement's been nice to me. Listen, I need you're help with something." Max said as the 4 older people listens throughly. "We're Listening." Luna said. "This here is you're 3rd nephew, 3 times removed: Dan Tennyson. My grandson." Both adults turns to each other in wide eyed shock.

"We have a distant Nephew!?" Max calls their attention as he explains. "Yep. Anyway, I was supposed to take him and his sister on a road trip across the states. But Frank and Natalie got called to a business trip in Europe for 3 months and wants to leave their son,Kenny, with me. I don't have the resources and age to look after 3 kids. So, Carl and Sandra decided to have Dan spend some time with distant family. So they sent him up to you to get out of his city for a bit."

The sisters looks at each other in thought for a bit and both answers back with a smile. "Okay, we'll do it." "If it's a family emergency, then count us in." Max said with a smile. "Great! I knew I could count on you 2! Now Dan, I want you to listen to you're aunts. They'll be in charge of you for Summer Vacation, understand?" " 'sigh' Yes, grandpa." Dan mumbles out.

"Don't you worry, Mr Tennyson! I'm Timber Spruce and this is my sister, Gloriosa Daisy. We're the guidance counselors of Camp Everfree." "We'll make sure you're grandson has a great and safe week in camp to kickstart his summer!" The siblings said as the elder smiles in response. "Thanks, ! I got to go! Picking up the others right now! Have fun, Dan and stay safe!"

The call ended as Dan pockets the phone. "Okay, Dan. Since you're a child, you'll sleep with me and Celestia in the supervisor cabin. Bedtime is 9:30 sharp! No night walks without an adult. And no extra sweets before bed." "Okay, now that is settled, Timber will lead you to get some camp cloths like the others."

Timber starts heading towards somewhere as Dan sighs out. "Is it possible to literally die of boredom?" He plugs headphones in and starts playing rock music on his phone as he fellows. "Okay, i'm sure it will be a bit harder to look after him." Luna comments as Gloriosa adds in. "Nonsense! All he needs is some time here to get him into the camp spirit!"


At Mess Hall, Timber exits out as he holds the door open. "I feel like a dork in this." Dan complains at his new clothes. He is now wearing an all black t-shirt with the camp logo on the chest and dark green shorts that goes to his knees. He kept his hat, necklace and shoes.

"Come on! You look great, dude! Here, i'll show to your aunts." They both walked off, meeting up with adults as the other, older campers gathered near a dock. "My, don't you look handsome in the outfit." Celestia complements as Dan groans out.

Just then… CRASH Dan's attention was turned to see a purple skinned teen in glasses being caught by Timber. "I know i'm charming, but you don't have to fall for me." The girl smiles as Dan groans in disgust. "Gross! Bleagh!"

"Hmm… this is a safety hazard." Dan and the other campers turn there attention to the adults and Gloriosa, who is inspecting the broken pier. "I suggest we close the dock for the remainder of the camp." Everyone groans in dismay while Dan merely shrugs.

"Oh, i'm sure it won't be for the remainder of the camp. It just needs to be patched up a bit. I got this!" "Or… maybe we do!" Everyone turns to a orange-skinned, blonde hair girl that has a cowgirl hat. "If you ask me, this whole dock's gotta go." She kicks one of the stumps, breaking to prove her point.

"Building one could be our camp gift! Sure it would benefit us, but think of the dock benefiting future campers, too!" She said, making the others cheer. "I don't know, it's a lot of hard work." Timber said as he stands near her sister. "I hate to see you guys miss out on building a dock for 'future campers'." He and Daisy bore glares at each other, making Dan surprised as it reminds him of his fights with his sister.

"I hear what you saying, Timber." A blue-skinned girl with rainbow hair said as she wraps an arm on his shoulder. "But we're Canterlot Wondercolts! We got a reputation to uphold. And there is no way we can leave without contribution the most, awesome camp gift ever! I'm with A.J.! A new dock is definitely it! What do you guys think?" Her answer whore all cheers, except for Dan, who groans silently.


Later, the campers were busy taking apart the old dock as the 3 girls, along with an all pink girl, a diva looking one, a girl with fire colors and a shy one, gathered around a nearby table as another camper was sketching. Dan was away from everyone else, sitting on the stairs of the boathouse, when Luna walks up to him.

"Dan, I know you don't want to work, but you need to pitch in like everyone else." "Fine." "Good. Now, come along. I want you to meet some special girls from our school." The 2 then walks towards the table as Celestia said to the group. "It's going to be a lot of hard work, but we can do it!" "YES! ADULT SUPERVISON!"

Dan was taken aback from the pink girl's yelling as he and Luna approaches them. The younger sister coughs, getting the group's attention. "Everyone, we have a new camper coming in. Our 3rd cousin, Max Tennyson, wants me and Celestia to watch his grandson for Summer Vacation. So, he will be here for the rest of the week. This is our Nephew, Dan Tennyson." She introduces the boy, who is bored and just says. "Sup?"

The girls greets him as the Pink one leans really close to him and grins. "OOOHHH… A new camper, who is a new friend, who is Celestia and Luna's Nephew! That is bonkers! Hi! I'm Pinkie Pie and we are going to have the best time ever!" Dan then deadpans. "I think I rather have my teeth yanked out. BTW. Your skins make you look like freaks." He then walks away, leaving the girls stunned.

"FREAKS?!" "Does anyone else picks up that he doesn't want to come here at all?" Sunset got agreements after some awkwardness. "Sorry, girls. He just have a hard time making friends. And he is more of a city kid." "Ether way, Principal Celestia, it's going to be a long summer for that kid." "Hopefully, he can learn some good manners in time, or else!" Rarity sourly said as she crosses her arms.


Back In space, the green ship still zooms at high speed with bigger catching up to it, despite it's size. A stray laser hits the back of it, knocking out it's engines. "Their propulsion systems have been destroyed." "Prepare to board! I want the Omnitrix, now!" The warlord orders.

Just then, the ship fires a green energy beam the blasted the bridge. But that didn't stop it from firing a bigger laser that took out all but the noise of the craft. Just then, a capsule jettisoned from the remains, zipping through space as it broke apart, revealing a small grey, steel pod that was sent tumbling down the nearest planet: Earth.


Later at night, at a bonfire area, Luna, the girls and the other campers were sitting on logs and rocks, telling stories and roasting marshmallows. The diva, Rarity, just finished a lame story. "Anyone else want's to tell a story?" Luna asks as the other campers didn't respond. "What about you, Dan?" She asks as the boy was sitting on the ground, away from the others as he plays on his 3DS XL. Silence was made as Luna sighs out at her Nephew.

Timber then told a story about some spirit named 'Gaea Everfree'. "And if you see a trail of gem dust, you'll know that it is… GAEA EVERFREE!" Just then, 2 eyes appears in the shadows, scaring everyone, except for Dan.

"Hey guys! Sorry about scaring you." Gloriosa apologizes as she steps into the light. "Why did you came out of the bushes?" "I wanted to take the scenic route. The forest is so beautiful at night. But no one should do it without a guide." She answers Sunset's question.

Dan pockets his game and stands up, heading into the woods. "I'm taking my own way back. Laters!" Luna sighs out as she watches. "I think this going to be harder then I thought."


Dan was walking through the night forest as his hands are in his pockets. "Man! This is going to be the worst vacation ever! I rather go to Summer School!" Just then, he herd a noise as he looks up, seeing a red light streaking across the night sky. "Whoa! A shooting star!" He said in awe.

Suddenly, the 'star' changed directions and starts heading towards the gasping boy. "YEAAAAAAHHHHH!" He screamed as he runs from the meteor, jumping out of the way as it crashes into a crater.

The boy dusts himself off and picks himself up as he stares in shock at the smoking crater. Stepping towards the edge, he saw a glowing orb in the middle with smoke coming off it. "Looks like a satellite or something." Just as the pod cools off, the edge crumbles, sending Dan sliding towards the object.

Standing up, Dan look at the strange object as it opens up, revealing nothing. But just then, a green glow came from the pod, making his eyes widened. The glow reveals… "A watch?"

The watch is bulky and has a green hourglass symbol instead of numbers. The rim of the dial is white and has 4 green arrows, and has a black wristband. The outer band is gray with green arrows, and the sides of the dial and the ends of the wristband are white. The top of the black wristband has a green hourglass underneath the dial. The top of the dial is black too.

"What's a watch doing in outer space?" Dan questions to himself, wondering how the strange looking gizmo was put into space at all. He then smirks, thinking it would be cool to try it on. As he reaches for it with his left hand….

"GAHH! Get off me! Get off!" The watch jumps up and clamps onto the wrist, scaring the boy as he shakes his arm. He then tries pull it off, only to have no luck. He climbs out and starts running into the woods. "Someone, help!"


At the tenting area, Celestia was standing outside when Luna walks up to her as the girl campers got to their tents. "Did Dan came back?" "No, I thought he was with you?" Celestia said as Luna explains. "He said he was heading back here. But he isn't here." "Hmm… it's 10 Mins to 9. I sure hope he is okay. Max will kill us if anything happens to him." "Keep hope, Tia. Keep hope."


Dan wedges a stick underneath the watch, hoping to pry it off. Only for it to break. Dan tosses it aside as he groans in dismay. Sitting on his knees, he decide to fiddle with it, only for the dial to pop up with a beep. He looks around and then back at the watch to see that the hourglass icon turns into a diamond one. In the icon is a tall, lanky figure with points on his arms and shoulder and a flame for the head. "Cool!" Dan decides to place his finger on the dial, pushing it down as his eyes widened. FLASH


The watch sank into his arm as vines starts covering it. They then spreads up to his head as he screams. His head turned all black with a flame design as his eyes became squinty. He grew until he is tall and grew seeds on his arms and shoulders. His feet turns into rocks as roots covered them.


Dan is now a humanoid, plant-like alien that has an overall green and black colored body, mostly with a flame-patterned head and root-like feet, seemingly holding rocks. His eyes are oval shaped with points at each end with pupils copying the shape but are smaller. Also, his shoulders and head have red petals. His elbows and legs have green frills sticking out and he is taller then an average human. He lastly has the green and white watch symbol on his chest.

Dan looks at his new hands and did the only thing possible: scream. "AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!"

"I'M COVRED IN PLANTS! GET THEM OFF! AAAAHHHHHH!" Dan screams out as he runs around. He then stops when he notices something. "Hey, i'm covered in plants, and i'm fine! Check it out! I gone green! Gah aha." Dan chuckles at his pun.

"I do wonder what this guy is suppose to…" He was cut off when, as he waves his right hand around, a fireball appears in it, surprising him. He then grins at what he is seeing. "Cooollll…." He then noticed a branch behind him.

"Oh, yeah! Uh, hu! Here goes!" Dan then tosses the fireball at the branch, blowing it straight off the tree. "That's what i'm talking about!" He then notices a bunch more trees. He puts his hands together and made a bigger flame. "Liking this!" He throws it through the line of wood, blasting them to ash. But it didn't stop there.

"Wait! Stop!" Dan calls out as the fire starts spreading. He notices a small flame and stomps on it, putting it out. But the fire is getting worse. "Oh, man! I'm going to get so busted for this!"


At the tents, Celestia and Luna walks out of the cabin as Gloriosa was doing a last min check on things. Sunset was about to head into her tent when she saw smoke in the distance. "What's that?" The adults and camp guide both saw the smoke as went over to her. "Oh, my! Looks like a forest fire!" " We better let the rangers know. Probably some foolish camper, messing with something he shouldn't." Luna answers Daisy's statement.

But the sisters widen their eyes at a thought. "DAN!" Tia ran into the cabin and grabs a couple of fire extinguishers, rushing back out as she gives one to Sunset. "Here, Sunset. We're going after him! Luna! Daisy! Stay here and be ready to evacuate if the fire comes close." She orders, getting nods in response.

Both student and teacher ran into the direction of the smoke.


Dan kept stomping out the small fire as the place turns into a raging inferno. "This should be so cool! If it wasn't so not cool!" He turns and stomps again. Sunset enters the area, spraying the fire with foam as she kept looking for the kid. She kept working on it, until she accidentally sprayed Dan. "Hey!"

They both look at each other in shock, unsure on what to do. "AAAAHHHH! GAEA EVERFREE!" "Hey, I know l look weird. But I'm not Gaea Everfree! So, there's no reason to be scared." WHAM Sunset smacks Dan with her weapon, knocking him back. He sat up and rubs his head, only to get sprayed on.

"I don't know who or what you are, but you'll stay down there if you know what's good for you!" Sunset barks as she puts the nozzle at him. Dan notices some seeds in his hand and decide to toss it at her feet. The seeds then turns into vines that tangles her foot. "Hey!" She cries out as she pulls at the vines as Dan chuckles.

She got free and glares at him, holding her extinguisher above her head. "I warned you…" "Hu, and here I thought you're suppose to be nice to me, ever since we meet at the table this afternoon, Sunset Shimmer!" Sunset widens her eyes in shock, realizing from the plant's words on who he is.

"Dan!? Is that you?! What happened to you?!" Sunset questions in shock as she approaches him. "Well, I was walking when this meteor fell from the sky and almost smudge me! Except it wasn't a meteor or a satellite, but this cool watch thing that jumped onto my wrist! When I tried to get off, I was suddenly covered in plants! Only it didn't hurt, and I somehow have fire powers and accidentally starting a mega forest fire!"

"Sunset!" Both of them turns to see Celestia running towards them. "Are you all—What in blazes!?" She cries in shock with wide eyes. "Hey, Principal Celestia, guess who?" "It's me, Aunt Celestia." Dan waves at her.

"Dan!? What are you!?" "Well, I was walking when—" "Hello! Major forest fire! About to reach the camp!" Sunset interrupts, gesturing to the raging inferno. "What do we do?" Celestia looks at the fire in thought of her Nephew's question. "Backfire. Start a new fire and let it spread into the old one. They'll smoke each other out. "Think you can do that?"

Dan smirks in response. "Shooting flames? I can definitely do!" He then runs to one direction as the other gets to safety. Dan stops at an untouched part of the woods and fires a stream of flames at the trees, letting it spread as the 2 fires started to cancel each other as Dan smirks.


Back in space, the big ship was parked in orbit as repairs were made. In the bridge, a drone stood in front of a tube. "What do you mean it is not there?! 'GASP' This battle nearly costed me my life! 'GASP'" The alien was lifted in the tube, revealing his mangled body, His left side was blown off as his right leg is a mere stump as alien wires attached to his body while a breathing mask was secured to support his damaged lungs.

"And you are saying the Omnitrix is not there?!" "Sensors indicated that a pod was jettison before boarding, landing on the planet below. However, the last energy blast also spread to the scout bot bay, destroying and damaging most of them. We have begun repairs and will be operational in approximately 6-7 hours." "Very well, send out a drone as soon as one of them is fixed." The warlord commands as he narrows his eyes.


Back on Earth, Dan, Sunset and Celestia were all sitting on rocks in a circle, talking to each other. "And you say that this 'watch', just jumped up and clamped onto your wrist?" The adult questions as the transformed kid responds. "Hey! This time, it wasn't my fault! I swear!" "I trust you, Dan!"

"Is he going to be a monster for the rest of his days?" "He's not a monster, he's an alien." Sunset and Dan stares in surprise at Celestia, who widened her eyes and quickly came up with an excuse. "W-well, look at him! What else could he be?"

"I don't want to be plant-fire guy forever! How am I going to play goalie at little league this fall if I melt the ball every time i catch an interception?" Dan groans out as he was worried about being an alien for the rest of his life, despite the cool powers that comes with it.

"Don't worry, Dan! We'll figure this out. BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP Just then, a strange sound came from the symbol on Dan's chest, making the them look at it as it blinks from green to red. FLASH A huge flash of red light engulfs the alien, blinding the girls briefly before it dies down.

Standing were the plant alien is Dan Tennyson, back to normal with the exception with the watch now glowing red. "Hey! I'm me again!" "Huh… I think that was some sort of time limiter. I guess you can only turn into an alien for a short amount of time." Sunset deduces as Dan struggles with the device. "Still can't get this thing off!"

"Better not fool around with it for tonight. We'll figure this out tomorrow. But for now, let's keep this to ourselves. Now, come on! Let's head for bed." Celestia said as she walks off, making the kid and teen looks at each other and follows her.


It was another sunny day at Camp Everfree. Everyone got up and were hanging out at the new docks. But as Dan got up and heads out, he looks around and then ran into the woods, unknowingly being spotted by Sunset, who frowned and went after him.


Dan made into a clearing and sat on a log, fiddling with the watch. "Hu? I wonder what this does?" Dan was so focused when… "BOO!" Sunset spoke as she appeared behind Dan, making him jump in fright and turns to the giggling teen. "Very funny, Bacon hair! Geez!"

He kept fiddling as Sunset watch in concern. "You shouldn't be messing with that thing." She said as the boy twists the dial a couple of times. "Yeah, so?" "Do you always have a lousy attention span?" Sunset questions as he bites on it. "Come on, you're not the least curious on what this thing can do?" "Well… just a little."


At the hidden warship, a bay door opens, only for something to fly out of it. It hurtles towards Earth crashing in the same forest. It then unfolds into a big, intimidating robot with 3 insectoid legs and sharp black claws. It scans the area to find the crashed pod, until for it to see no Omnitrix. Frustrated, it blasts it with a palm laser and deploys 2 hovering, spider droids the flew off.


Dan points at the watch as he shows it. "Look, if I can figure this thing out, I can help people. I mean, really help them! Not just, you know, make things worst." "So, what was it like turning into an alien?" Sunset questions as they both sat on the log as Dan went back to fiddling.

"It freaked me out at first! It was like I was me and someone else at the same time!" Just then, the core pops up, showing the selection mode. "Hey, I figured it out! Let me try again, just this once!" He twists the dial, skipping past the plant guy icon, an icon of a humanoid parrot, a icon of a humanoid cat before stoping on an icon of a burly guy with claws, wolf ears and a short busy tail.

"I wouldn't." "No, duh. YOU wouldn't." He then slaps on the core, making a flash of green light.


The watch sank into his arm as veins protruded out of his arm, traveling up to his eye as he shuts it before it shot open, making it all green. He turns around as dark blue/ grey fur starts covering him as he get bulky as his hands became 4 with small claws. A short, bushy tail grew out as a iron shoulder pad form on his left shoulder. He spins forward as his mouth became a wolf muzzle. Black gauntlets along with a dark green/light green armored vest with black pants with white leg helms, strip in the middle and waistband forms on him as he roars out, posing as the morphing is done.

Sunset sat up with a gasp as Dan roars out. "RRAAAAGGGHHH! Dan is now an humanoid werewolf that has 4 sharp claws on his hand and 3 on his feet. He has all green eyes with his mouth's inside is green and has Dark blue/grey fur. He has the watch symbol on his vest. [Bashmouth with Insane man's Blitzwolfer fur color. And has the red replaced with green with white and black pants.]

"WHOA! This is so awesome! I'm a werewolf!" Dan, now with a deep dog-like voice, exclaims as he grins with his fangs as Sunset comments. "I did not expect a werewolf at all." Dan notices his arms were buff and looks at the log, smirking as he raises a fist and clobber the log into 2 as Sunset jumps. "Wicked!" "DAN! What was that for?!" "Sorry, Sunset! But this wolf is a loner now! See ya later!"

He jumps away and starts hoping off the tree branches, going deeper into the forest as Sunset yells at him. "Dan! Get back here! DAN! I'm going to tell Celestia that you turned into some werewolf guy and went into the forest when you're not to!" She then groans out in dismay. "As if my life can't get any weirder."


Dan kept swinging and jumping through the woods, grunting and snarling like an animal, which is not to far off. He then stops on a tree, looking around the place when his ears picked something up, making him turn to see a laser blast heading towards him. "Uh-oh!" He quickly crosses his arm, unaware as his gauntlets formed scaled-metal shield plates on his forearms. Dan was blasted into the bushes as the drone looks around for him.

Dan realizes he was okay and looks at his new plates. "Shield arms? Cool." He notices a nearby tree and the drone, climbing up to the top. The bot was unnoticed of anything when..."

"RRRAAAHHHHH!" Dan pounces out from the treetops, landing on the robot as tries to shake him off. The bot tires to fire it laser, only for Dan's teeth to became sharper and metallic as he bits it off. "Metal teeth? Now that is handy!" He then tears the robots head off as it was flying out of control.

He kept bitting and smashing the bot until the watch started to blink red again. He then notice that they were heading towards a cliff. "Uh-oh." Dan quickly hops off as the robot crashes, turning back in a flash of red light after landing

He looks back at the flaming wreckage and pumps his fist. "Yes!" But his victory was short-lived. Because another robot approaches him, aiming it's laser at the human as Dan got scared. "Whoa, not good!" Dan and the robot kept staring at each other until… WHACK

"Back off! Tin can! No flying saucer is going to hurt my friend!" Sunset whacks it a few more times with her shovel as Dan states in shock. "Am I glad to see you." Fire then burst from the robot, making the 2 run off as it explodes behind them.


Later, Celestia meets up with the both of them in the cabin as she scolds the boy. "I was worried that you would run off and mess with the watch. That's why I told you not to fool around with it." "Sorry, Aunt Celestia. But I did figured out how it works." Dan exclaims as he shows them. "All you gotta do is press this button. Then, when the ring pops up, just twist it until you see the guy you want. Slam it back down and BAMO! You're one of 10 super, awesome aliens!" Dan exclaims.

Well, that's informative. But have you figured out why the watch turns people into aliens?" "I… haven't figured that out yet." Dan moans out with an embarrassed look as Celestia starts thinking. "Well, with a device as powerful as that watch stuck on you. My suggestion is: Teach you how to use rightfully and responsible."

"ALL RIGHT!" Dan exclaims as he raises his fists in the air while Sunset smiles at him. BBBOOOOOMMMM "What was that?!" The 3 looks out the window to see smoke coming from the campgrounds as a large metal bot can be seen. "That looks like one of the robots that attacked me earlier! Must be looking for the watch. Those campers are in danger because of me!"

Dan rushes to the door and opens it. "I gotta help them!" Sunset quickly stops him and calls out. "But how!?" The boy looks at the watch and smirks.

Dan and the girls ran to a halfway point to the area, hidden from site as Dan looks at the green glowing watch. Getting a nod from Celestia, he activates it. "Yeah." He goes past the parrot. "Eenie." A gorilla icon. "Meanie." Stopping on an icon that is bulky and with tubes all over him. "Miney. Here goes!" FLASH


A tube burst out of his stomach and coils around him as his eyes became watery. His right arm turned into water and got contained in a bulky red forearm that has a blade on his side that is positioned like a shark's fin. He has a black, 3 clawed hand, covered by a red fingerless glove with a small green 'v' on the back of it. He has some white around the hole on his wrist. Connected to it is a black, segmented limb.

Dan turns his back to the 4th wall as he gets bigger and hunched over as 2 containers of water appears on his upper back while a backpack-like device appears on the middle with 2 tubes connected to it that goes around his front. His skin turned metallic and red as his stomach became segmented too while his pelvis became red and armored. His bottom legs became red with bits of grey as the feet turns black with 2 toes. His upper legs became like the other limbs. He then spun around and posed as he finished transforming.

Dan was now a big, bulky, hunched robot-like-alien that has containers of water on his back, shoulder pads, and head, that now has a breather on his mouth that is connected to the body tubes, a white 'v' on his forehead, and green, pointed eyes with a black mask around them. He has a white strip down the middle of his chest, for which resides the watch symbol. (Insane-Mane's Overflow OV, but with green added in. I chose this version because it's awesome looking.)


"So, what can this alien do?" Sunset questions as Dan looks at his new hand that is part of his adult-size look. "I don't know, but I bet it's going to be pretty awesome!"

Another explosion occurred in the area as the campers all run while screaming with Luna guiding them to the woods for safety. The trio arrives to see a laser blasted a rock climb wall to bits. Out of the smoke came the big bot from before. "Looks like the leader, this time. I'll get Gear-brain's attention. You girls get everyone to safety!" Celestia nods and made Sunset follow her as Dan ran towards the robot.

The robot contained stomping all over the place, stopping to scan the area. It then picks up on a strange energy signature, coming from Gloriosa's necklace, who is picking up Twilight and Timber. The robot then grabs her as Twilight gasps while Timber tries to grab her. "GLORIOSA!"

The machine brought the scared girl to it's head and reaches for the necklace with it's other claw. "No! NO!" She tries to struggles away, but couldn't from the claw that is pinning her arms. "LEAVE HER ALONE!" The 4 turns to see Dan, posing heroically as he glares at the machine. "Try picking on me, bolt head!" The alien machine scans the being, only to lock onto it's chest symbol.

The robot drops Daisy, who landed into her brother's arm as they and Twilight rushes out of the scene. The robot fires it's palm cannon, blasting Dan into a pile of firewood, which was then blasted too. The robot slowly approaches the pile when water shot out of it. Dan pulls him self out and looks at his wrist to see water dripping from it. "Nice!"

He looks at the robot and narrows his eyes at it. He fires a duel stream of water from both arms, but the machine leaps over and crashes down on him, pinning him with it's legs. "Oh, boy! I'm in trouble!"

Sunset managed to find Twilight and comfort her after escorting other campers. "Are you all right?" "I'm fine. But what in the name of science is going on!?" "You wouldn't believe me if I tell you. Now come on!" Sunset beckons and runs while Twilight merely watches the fight.

Dan got out and back up, only to be grabbed and thrown near Twilight, who got the message and runs. Dan stands up and shakes his head, glaring at his opponent. The machine fires another laser, but Dan was quicker and dodge it. He kept dodging and running around from the lasers, only for to hit a tree, making it tumbles on to Sunset Shimmer, who stood in shock.

Just then, a huge blast of water hits the tree, sending it flying into the forest. Sunset turns to see Dan with his cannons dripping. "So, we even?" "Even." Dan was then grabbed by the bot. The machine then tries to yank off Dan's left arm, who fires more water to push it away.

He then shakes his arm, hoping to spread the water blast when, suddenly and without warning, the stream sliced the left arm off. "Whoa! Water blades!" Was all Dan could say before being blasted away. He lands in a dirt crater as the machine follows, intending to finish the job.

Celestia and Sunset got everyone into the woods when they noticed the battle. "Dan." Celestia said in concern. Dan stood up and looks at his arms and then at the robot, realizing on what to do. He fires blasts of water as the robot fires it's laser. The 2 collides in a stalemate, struggling overpower one another.

The girls and the others all looked in awe at the battle. "You know, big guy. You might be bigger, but i'm waterproof!" The aqua streams overpowered the beam, sending the stream into the cannon, which then sparks out of control. The machine only have time to look at it before… KA-BOOOMMM

The explosion took out the top part of the alien mech, leaving the bottom part to collapse and explodes as well. "ALL RIGHT!" "Way to go N-." Celestia stop when she notices the crowd staring at her. "Umm… Overflow guy!"

"AW, YEAH! WHO'S BAD!?" The newly named Overflow shot 2 streams of water in the air for victory. He then notices the staring campers as Sunset and Celestia were shaking and palming their heads. "Well… since my work here is done, i'll be on my way." He then ran off to the woods.

"Who was that guy!?" Rainbow Dash questions as they look at Sunset and Celestia, who both shrugs. Luckily, no one notices the 2 sharing a wink. Pinkie felt her hair tingled for a second and just smiles without a care.


Back at the ship, the alien was furious at what he was told. "FAILURE!? UNACCEPTABLE! 'Gasp' The puny Earth being who is keeping the Omnitrix from will soon hang on my trophy wall! Vilgax the conqueror will make him suffer!" Vilgax narrows his red, soulless eyes into near silts in rage at the boy who bested him, vowing to destroy him.


The next day, Dan was back in the secret area, practicing and testing out his aliens. "Okay, that was… Fasttrack! Alien number 4! So far, I have Bashwolf, Humungosaur, Grey Matter, Upgrade, haven't figured this guy out, Overflow, Astrodactyl, Bloxx and Swampfire." Dan said as he scrolls through his playlist. RUMBLE

"What was that?! Another Robot?!" The boy exclaims as the earth shook. Just then, he saw a purple glow coming from over the trees, getting his curiosity and ran to investigate. He stops at the Rock Quarry to see Sunset and Twilight along with her pet dog, Spike, entering into a glowing cave that is partially blocked by boulders.

"I wonder why their going in there, or the cave glowing?" Dan decides to go in and check it out. He managed to squeeze through the rocks and made it in. He was sneaking along the red crystal glowing walls when… "Timber was… covering for you." "How do you know about the geodes? How do you know about the magic?"

Dan heard Sunset and Gloriosia's voices, coming from deep in the cave. He quickly ducks behind some rocks and peeks out, seeing Twilight, Sunset, and Spike standing in front of Gloriosia, who is standing near a white, Kate, object that 2 little colorful crystals were embedded in it. "I can see things, feel things, because I have magic too." "Magic?" Dan whispers out.

"So does she and so do our friends." "Gloriosia, Timber wasn't wrong. You need to stop using magic. Too much of it could be dangerous if you can't control it." Twilight tries to plead to the councilor, who brushes it off with a sly smirk. "Oh, I got this. And i'm going use to save my camp! I just need more power!"

"NOO!" Both girls yells as they try to stop her, but Gloriosia holds her green glowing hand out, making vines rise from the ground and ties them up. She then grabs the last 2 crystals and places it with the others. Just then, a flash of green light engulfs Gloriosia, Making Dan gasps in surprise as the light dies down.

Gloriosia's new form now has a darker version of her skin tone and has a light purple mask around her eyes, which now resembles pools of tar with green glowing pupils. She now wears a dress made out of leaves with long, brown gloves and legs into green flats. She has a green aura as she was floating while having an emerald-encrusted head band in her flowing, blue with glowing streaks, hair. "Sorry, girls. I know what need to be done."

She floats past the struggling teens as Dan ducks out of sight. "But I feel like we're not on the same page, so…" She then floats out of the cave as Sunset and Twilight begs her to stop. The new villain made it outside and turns back, making vines to block the cave as the girls screams while Dan gasps. The villainess then starts heading towards the camp.

Twilight and Sunset kept struggling to get out, but they were stuck. "Hey, you guys need a hand?" The trio turns to see Dan appearing out of the shadows with a smirk. "Dan! Are we glad to see you." Sunset breaths out as Dan went and starts pulling on the vines, mustering all of his strength until the vines snapped off as Sunset rubs her arms.

"Thanks!" They then unties Spike and Twilight and heads towards the exit. Only find the boulder to be blocking it. "It's no use, it's too big." Sunset exclaims, making Dan looks at the watch and at the brainiac and dog. "I have an idea, But Twilight, Spike, can you 2 keep a secret?" "Yes." Twilight answers as Spike nods. Dan activates the watch, scrolling until he stopped on a bulky icon with 2 spikes on the shoulders. "What are you doing with your watch?" FLASH


Blue lighting burst from Dan's chest as he silently screams. The energy courses from the watch and travels to his other arm as he grins. His right arm turns into a 4 fingered-limb that is made out of blue and white energy. He throws an uppercut with the arm as the rest of his body became the same as it. Then, rocks started to gather onto him as he spins and poses, finishing the transformation.


The girls and Spike gasps in shock at the new alien. The alien is a tall, bulky being made out of pure, blue energy. There are four spikes protruding from both of his shoulders. His arms are rather large, stretching down nearly to his feet in resting position. His arms, chest, and legs are rock-like. A moss-like substance can be seen around his neck. He has a rock helmet with a black face with 2 green eyes. He has the watch symbol on his chest.

"Okay, then. Let's see what this new guy can do." Dan holds his arms out and went to push the boulder. But, suddenly, his arms started to crackle lighting as he looks in surprise. "Whoa!" He puts his hands together and fires a white-hot beam from them, blasting the rock to dust as the boy and spectators stare in awe. "Whoa." Dan breaths out while looking at his hands. He then ran outside with others following him.

The girls and dog made it out as they both noticed Dan staring up in shock. "Uhh… Is it me or does Gloriosia decided to make some extreme nature decorticates at the camp?" They look up to see giant vines engulfing the entire camp in a dome. "Gloriosia must be using the magic to trap everyone in camp! We got to move!" Sunset exclaims as they all runs towards the camp.

"Dan! Were you the water guy from yesterday? How did you do that and what is up with that watch?!" Twilight cries out. "Twilight, I don't think now is the time for '20 questions'!" "He's got a point Twilight!" Spike exclaims, making the teen sighs out and refocused on what is happening.

They all arrived at the dome. "How do we get in?" Dan questions as Sunset answers. "Twilight! Can you use you're magic to get us in?" "I don't want to use too much of it. Midnight Sparkle could take over!" Dan raises an eyebrow at the name. "Midnight who?"

"Twilight. Our friends are in there." Sunset clasp her hands over her friend's own ones and glowed red, and much to Dan's surprise, had horse ear appeared on top of her head as her hair extends into a ponytail. "There's something you don't see everyday." "Oh, like the kid that can turn into a water robot and a lighting golem is normal?" Spike snarks back as Dan responds. "Good point."

Twilight approaches the wall and holds her glowing hands, making the vines part into a big enough hole for them to walk through. They got in to see that Gloriosia is on a growing pillar of vines as her hands spread to sides and her eyes glowing green. "What you are doing is wrong!" Timber calls out as he was smothered in the branches.

"That isn't your sister!" Sunset calls out as they made it on the scene. "Twilight!" Rarity calls out as Applejack adds in. "Sunset!" "You're okay!" Rainbow Dash exclaims as she help Fluttershy up. "Hey, who's the new guy?" Pinkie questions.

"That isn't your sister, it's someone consumed by equestria magic." Sunset explains to Timber. "Whoever you are, please let my sister go! Please, Gloriosia! I need you." Timber pleas with tears, hoping to regain his sister. Dan watches with sadness before gaining a detriment look. He looks at his hand as lighting dances around, only to noticed that it briefly made a shape for a while. "I wonder…"

He then pulls his hands apart, making energy dance around until forms into a giant, electric boomerang. "Whoa! I can make energy weapons! This is awesome!" "Gloriosia!" Was all Timber said before being engulfed. Dan looks up to the mad woman, who is almost being engulfed as well. "Go, Bluemerang!" He throws the weapon, making it sliced through some of the brambles.

"Hey, I was trying to- What!?" Was all she could say until the object doubles back and knocks her off the platform, sending her tumbling to the ground. "Yeah! It does come back!" Gloriosia got up and growls at the alien, making vines that caught him. "Not a smart move, grabbing me." Dan then made his body sparks powerful electricity that fries the vines. More vines came after him, but Dan made an energy sword and slashed through them.

"Whoa! Do you see this guy!?" Rainbow Dash exclaims as she and the others watch. "I sure hope he doesn't hurt himself." "But what I want to know is who the sam hill is he?" Applejack wonders at the strange being. "He sure does look shiny, though!" Pinkie randomly comments. "Don't worry. He knows Overflow and he was sent here to help as well." Sunset winks at Twilight, who got the message. "Yep, he herd about what is going on here and wanted to help us."

"YEAH! Go for it, N-" Spike was stopped by Sunset and Twilight, who both shook their heads. "Umm… Shock Rock!" "Hey, Shock Rock! That sounds coOOOLLLL!" Shock Rock was sent flying from a lucky strike, crashing into the smashed dock. "SERIOUSLY?!" Rainbow Dash yells out.

Shock Rock stands and rubs his head to shake off dizziness. "Why are you fighting me!?" He looks up to see Gloriosia back on her pillar as she looks down on him. "I'm doing this for the greater good! I'm doing this for the camp!"

"Sheesh… Are you sure you're not from the loony bin? Cause you sure look and act like one!" The alien grins out as Sunset face palms at his taunt. Gloriosia had a crazy smile as her right eye twitched a bit. "'The Loony Bin'?... I am NOT LOONY!" She rages out as the vines covered her and made green lighting surge through the place, making vines grow out. "Nice going, Shock Rock! You made her angry!"

Was all Sunset could yell out before Rarity made a diamond barrier surrounds them before the vines engulfed it. "Me and my big mouth." Shock Rock groans out. He quickly dodged lighting and vines, blasting the wood hazards away as he runs. "I got to do something. She's going into full rage mode! But my sword won't cut it with these many brambles!"

He quickly hops on to one after another, trying to avoid getting caught. "Think, what do lumberjacks use? Axes? No. Bulldozers? No. Wait a min…" He widens in realization at something. Landing on the ground, he faces the vines and starts making something as rocks and lighting surges around his cupped hands.

He forms his left hand into a square rock with a handle on top, 2 blue holes on the sides and 2 thin openings on the end. He pulls an energy ripcord on the side, making 2 big energy chainsaws roar out as they appear. "Woo-Hoo! Let the energy flow!" Shock Rock marvels at his new weapon.

Just then, green lighting struck him. Only, instead of hurting him, they made his body surge as his saws got bigger and more powerful. "YEAH! I can absorb energy! Thanks for the power boost!" The vines lunges at him, only for the powered up hero to sliced them away with his new weapon.

He then made a leap at the tower as more vines came at him. Shock Rock slashed them to bits as a huge one went behind him. But he was quicker and slide on his back as his saw tears at it. He then backflips and downward slashed at another set of vines.

Just then, he noticed a glowing pink light coming from the smaller dome. The vines were pushed away as Twilight, who now had purple wings on her back along with the ears and ponytail as the others, flew out. "Hey, Twilight! Ready to end this?" "You got it, and is that a chainsaw arm?!" "Yep!" Shock Rock pulls the ripcord, reactivating it. He then leaps up and sliced the top part of the pillar, sideways. He exposures Gloriosia as Twilight levitates the crystals away from her.

The Geodes went to the teens with their respective color, merging with them and transforming them. They all gained Kate-like outfits as they all glowed their respective colors as they started to make a bright light, making Shock Rock shields his eyes.

When he opens his eyes, he was surprised to see that all the vines were gone as sparkling green lights raining down. He then notices his aunts and other campers stepping out of the mess hall as they marvel at the sight. They all then cheered at being saved.

Timber was coming around and notices his unconscious, back to normal sister. "Gloriosia?" He went to her as a green sparkle touches her, flattering her eyes open. "Wha… What happened?" "It's okay. It's going to be okay." He comforts her as they hug.

The transformed girls floated down to the ground as Shock Rock walks up to them. "Nice job, back there!" "Thanks! And pretty cool using a chainsaw arm to cut all the vines away." Twilight complements him.

Just then, the crowd cheers and applause at the 8 heroes as they all smile while Shock Rock grins at the attention. "WHO'S YOUR HEROES!?" He calls out, getting bigger cheers as Sunset and Twilight both smiles and shakes their heads at each other. BEEP BEEP BEEP

Shock Rock looks down to see he was timing out. "SORRY! Gotta go!" He then took off into the woods, hoping to get as far away to not being followed. He reached a hidden small pond when he turns back. "Whew, that was a bit too close! Still, it would have been nice for me to stay a little longer."

Dan then starts to walks back to the camp. He kept walking for a bit, until he made it back to see everyone was fixing the docks and damage. "I am so sorry." Dan saw the Gloriosia is standing in front of his aunts while looking shamefully. "I just want to make it the best week of Camp Everfree! But instead, I made it the worst! Maybe it's best that i'm losing the camp to Filthy Rich."

"No! It's not! This camp means a lot to so many people! My sister and me included." "Why do you think we wanted our students to come here?" Luna questions as everyone gathers around while Dan walks next to Celestia, who secretly winks at him for doing a good job with the watch earlier as Dan smiles.

Twilight spoke up, getting the crowd's attention . "We can't let Filthy Rich take this camp away! If this place meant so much to you 2, then maybe it meant as much for the other campers who came here before." "And maybe, we can get them to help save it!"

Applejack questions as Rarity squeals out. "Like a fundraiser?" "Or a ball!?" Rainbow Dash zooms up. "Our band can play!" "I can write a new song!" Fluttershy mentions. Everyone mumble and agrees, wanting to save the camp. "That's all nice, but where will we hold it?"

We can hold it in the Crystal cave!" Dan adds as Rarity glees out. " A Crystal Ball! I love it!" "I love everyone's enthusiasm, really, I do! But I just don't think we can do this by tomorrow night." "WE GOT THIS!" The Rainbooms cries out.


At the Crystal ball, everyone was dressed fancy as they all enjoyed the party along with the older campers. Gloriosia made an announcement that they had saved the camp by easing enough money, making Filthy Rich leave in silent defeat. Dan was dressed up in a comfy tuxedo with a green tie and the number 10 on his back made by Rarity, who also combs his hair as well. "Look at you, Dan!" He turns with a Pizza slice in hand to see Sunset smiling at him

"You're bound to get some girls chasing after you." She teases with a smirk as Dan rolls his eyes. "Very funny, Bacon head! But, you know, I came to this camp, thinking that I was going to have the worst summer ever."

Dan looks at the crowd having fun with Sunset on his side. "But it turns out, thanks to some magic and an alien watch, that this camp is pretty cool after all! Grandpa was right sending me here! And I did made some great friends too!" Sunset smiles warmly at the boy. "To the start of the best summer ever!" Dan holds a cup of punch as he and Sunset toasts and laughs.


Later, Sunset was hanging outside the cave as Twilight said bye to Timber and walks over to her, getting a coy grin as she blushes. Dan was busy hanging out with his aunts and meeting the other Rainbooms inside of the cave.

But as Sunset slurps her cup, she gained a pondering look. "There is 2 things that concerns me." "What's that?" "Where did the magic that hit this cave come from? And why was the watch sent to Earth in the first place?" Both teens looks up at the night sky, wondering about the mysteries of both the magic and the watch.
