The universe. Ever expanding throughout the years. Forming new life, and sending older lives into extinction. Yet, some lives are preserved, in a device. This device, made to find and store the DNA of all those beings, the Omnitrix
It was a normal day in the extraterrestrial town of Bellwood. All the people had been on there way to whatever destination they were heading to. Some were off to work, while others were going to the Undertown for whatever reasons.
There was a two story building just off of the business section of the city. Its garage door was up, with a sign at the top that read "Carsen Motors". A white and red car inside, it's hood was up, a hand rummaging through. A teen, arguably in his early 20s with blonde hair. had walked over to his toolbox grabbing a socket wrench. He had twisted a bolt into its place in the engine, sighing and pushing down the hood, closing it. He placed the wrench on a table, grabbing a white jacket and covering his body with it.
The teen looked up at the sound of the door closing above him. A woman had walked down the stairs of the garage and towards him, a grin on her face."Uh, Mom? What's with the smile?" the teen asked the woman, stepping back slowly.
The female had pulled up a piece of paper ready to squeal in excited. "Well, guess what came in the mail today?"
"From the looks of it, a new make up kit?" the teen had asked in a sly tone.
"Colby, your acceptance letter arrived today!" his mother stated. It confused him. What did he want to accept into again? He gave her a questioning look for a minute, trying to tick her off with the face he made. "You were accepted into Bellwood Academy?!"
"Oh, yeah that-I don't remember that." Colby stated to her, tucking his hands into his pocket. It wasn't surprising anyone. The kid couldn't remember things he found unimportant, even if he wanted to. "Bellwood Academy huh? Seems like a good opportunity, doesn't it?" he asked looking up in thought. "A new beginning. A brighter future for me and everyone around me..."
"Eh. Whatever I guess." he shrugged off the thought.
"What?!" his mother questioned, dumbfounded. "But this a huge opportunity for you! You're just gonna let it pass like this?"
"I'll sleep on it, mom." he replied going to the table and grabbing a key chain with car keys attached. "Right now I need to go to the junkyard. All those parts aren't gonna sort themselves." with that, the blonde opened the door to the white and red race car, turned the keys and drove off.
The teen was at the junkyard for hours. Trailing from the afternoon, to the evening. He had finished rolling the last tire into a pile, which seemed to resemble the Eiffel Tower. He huffed, seeing the last shimmer of sun light slowly fade away on the horizon. His work day was over.
He had a conversation with the owner of the yard. He had obtained his paycheck for the day. 175.00 in cash. Colby smiled.
"What's with the extra, Mr. Kruger?" Colby asked. He wasn't complaining, just asking. He doesn't remember doing anything that would condone it.
"It's just a little going away present for you." the junkyard manager replied, grinning. "I heard you got into Bellwood Academy. I just wanted to reward you."
"By an extra hundred bucks? Not that I'm complaining." the blonde stuttered out, shoving the cash in his pocket.
Mr. Kruger only chuckled. "Yeah I thought so. Good luck, kid." he patted the teen on the shoulder, pushing him forward slightly.
Colby began to walk out the gate, then looked back. "I'll stop by sometime, okay?" he continued to walk out, not waiting for a response. He had walked to his white and red car, opening the door. He looked up to the stars. He had made his decision. "Yeah...I'll make you proud dad..."
He was snapped out of his moment when he saw an orange star go through the sky. It was something he had never seen. He watched it curve downwards to the ground, landing dead center at the very place he works. The junkyard.
"What the..." he began, then he had sprinted into the site as dust was swept up by the impact. He had run straight, looking for his boss, Mr. Kruger. He found himself climbing a small mountain of debris, before falling down into a small crater. He rolled down to the floor, collecting dirt from the ground.
The young man looked up, seeing a metal ball in the center. He had got up and walked to the ball. He was curious of why such a thing would land here. It seemed very rare to have something like this happen. At least to him it was.
The ball suddenly opened, seeping out smoke. Inside Colby saw a white and green, square watch with a green and back symbol on it. "Okay, that's weird..." he stated, reaching into the ball to grab the watch. He looked at it, slightly confused. "Must be a digital watch..." he told himself, placing and securing it on his wrist. It had suddenly lit up, grabbing its wearer's attention. "Okay then...it's on..." he mumbled, putting a finger on the top. A hologram had formed, as well as a wheel around it. "What is this? Some type of app?" he saw a check sign at the bottom of the wheel and pressed it. The top of the watch opened, revealing a cylinder with the same green and black symbol. Colby took his thumb and pressed it slowly, putting it back into its position.
The watch began to shine bright in green and yellow light. Green lines started to appear on Colby's left arm, expanding to his entire body. His skin had turned blacker than the darkest void. The arms and legs started to become covered with the rest of his body with a black blob. The blobs had finally covered his face. He closed his eyes, and at the end, opened one black and green eye taking up most of his face.
The young teen fell down, breathing deeply and looking around. He was calming down. "Okay..." he slowly looked down at his hands. "It was just a hallucination...oh, I have no fingers-I have no fingers!" he screeched in a cybernetic version of his original light hearted voice.
He ran around, slightly panicked of what he had become. "What happened to me?" he looked at his chest to see the symbol of the watch on a small plate of metal. "It has something to do with this stupid watch, doesn't?" he grabbed the metal plate on his chest, trying to pry it off him, but he couldn't. "Get off, you stupid little-" just then, he heard a cry for help, from a familiar voice. It was Mr. Kruger!
The teen blob ran to best of his stubby feet's abilities. Running to the distress calls of his boss. He finally found the old man. His foot was stuck under a pillar, right under a tower of cars, ready to collapse. "Mr. Kruger!" Colby shouted to the man. "Don't worry! I'll get you out of there!" he stated, beginning to run off to the side.
"Okay, what can I you to get him out of there?" the teen thought to himself, before running into a wall and splattering all over it. He stepped back, looking up at it. It was a pillar, and not just a pillar, a crane. Suddenly, a mental lightbulb had shined. "Got it!" he said, beginning to melt into the machinery, covering it in the black and green blob. The crane had extended slightly, moving its claw down to the rubble and debris surrounding the old man. The machine lifted the debris, turning and tossing it to another side of the junkyard.
The blob detached from the crane down to the ground, being engulfed in green and yellow lights. Colby had suddenly transformed into his human form. He ran over to Mr. Kruger, sliding over to make eye contact with him. "Boss! You okay?" he asked the old man, who only grunted, attempting to get on his feet.
Colby picked up his boss, wrapping his arm around the back of his neck. They began to walk out the junkyard, the young staring at what he had attached to himself.
