Zero's Ben
Chapter 2:
…
"The day has finally come for the summoning ritual!" Explained a almost bald middle age professor to his students "This is the first task for you all now that you advanced to your second year here at the Academy and the sacred first day when you finally meet your familiars with whom you will spent your life living as a noble man"
The students of Tristan magical academy were listening to the lecture given by their professor, but among the eager and exited students there was one that stood apart from the rest. This was Louise de la Vallière or as her classmates called her: Louise the Zero.
"All set Louise?" Teased a busty foreign redhead "I'm looking forward to see what kind of familiar you will summoned"
Louise frowned "Leave me alone"
The professor whose name was Colbert clashed his staff on the floor the quiet the now murmuring students "Let us begin!"
A long procession of young mages happened, some calling upon beings of great power like a Rhyme dragon to bizarre creatures like an oversized mole, to simple characters like cats, owls and toads. Names continued to be called our, each time a name was being ticked off the list until at last.
"Alright there, has everyone has their turn?" Asked Professor Colbert.
"No, not quite" Answered the same Germanic Vixen from before "Miss. Vallière hasn't done it"
Louise was standing on the back of the group, hoping to not get noticed by that very redhead. Reluctantly she walked to the middle of the group to perform the summoning spell.
"What do you think she will summon?" Asked a girl.
"Probably another explosion" Laughed the boy beside her.
"With all your boasting you should be able to summon something more impressive than this, right Louise?" Asked the busty Germanian, while she pet her own familiar, a fire salamander that had a strange resemblance to Charmeleon.
"Well of course" Said Louise with a proud face, but in her mind she had many doubts about herself and prayed that the ritual would actually work.
Taking a deep breath, Louise raised her wand and chanted "Servant that exist somewhere in this vast universe-"
The rest of the mages were dumstock by such an unusual spell. With question marks appearing on top of some heads.
"What kind of spell is that?" Asked a blonde girl with curls.
"Whatever it is, is it original, that is for sure" Answered the blonde's boyfriend.
Louise kept chanting "My divine, beautiful, wise, powerful servant" Even the petite blue haired Galian was paying attention by now "Heed my call, I wish from very bottom of my heart and add to my guidance and appear!"
From the tip of Louise wand, a brilliant green sphere not bigger than a marble came out. Many flinch thinking that it would explode, but it didn't, it just floated there for a second.
"Is that supposed to be your familiar?!" Laughed someone.
"The ritual is not over yet" Frowned Professor Colbert.
The students shut up and continued to watch the orb. It divided itself in two identical spheres, then four, then eight and it went on and on until there were dozens of them forming a circle in the air. They started to spin in an orbit and gather speed up till there was a ring on green light. From within a echoing voice could be heard, no one understood what it was saying. Everyone leaned in closer to try to hear the voice then…
BOOM.
"I KNEW it would blow up!" Yelled the same blonde from before.
"Hahaha, the Zero strikes again"
"Zero! Zero! Zero!"
The students began mocking and bullying Louise, who was on the breach of tears. How could the most stable spell known to Halgeika end in failure? Because she was the Zero that's why, she was a failure and a disgrace to her family name.
"Oh, my head!"
Everything went quiet hearing the new voice coming from where the explosion had happened.
As the dust cloud created by the explosion cleared, many gasped. Resting in the crater from the explosion was a boy about 17 or 16 years of age wearing white pants, a tight black T-shirt with a green stripe on the front, a brown leather-like harness on his chest and a white helmet with the number ten painted on the front and brown gloves, next to him there was a strange contraption with wheels, that seemed to be made out of green metal.
"A Human?!" Yelled Louise "Professor please let me redo the ritual!"
Professor Colbert shook his head "This is a sacred ritual of the church, there are no redoes"
Ben clicked some bottoms on his Tenn-sped and his clothes were transformed back into his usual brown pants, loose black T-shirt with a 10 symbol on it and warm white and green hoodie. He then gave a loud cap whistle getting everyone's attention "Would someone explain what is going on?!"
Now that the teens voice was not echoing, the professor was able to understand him in what he thought was Albanian "You 'ave been summoned by ze familiar ritual"
Ben stared at the bald guy with the french accent, not getting what he was trying to say, sure he understood the words but not the meaning of what he was trying to say "I been what by the what now?"
Louise swallowed part of her pride and stud in front of Ben in an imposing manner "I am Louise Françoise Le Blanc de La Vallière and you will be my familiar"
Ben wasn't listening to her, he was pushing buttons on his Omnitrix "One time top left, twice middle right, once both top" The yellow light of the Omnitrix was turned on and scanned Louise.
"EHH, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Squealed Louise.
The light died out and from the Omnitrix came a robotic female voice that everyone understood "Scan complete. Foreign language assimilated. DNA sample collected. Species DNA sample already in storage. WARNING, collected DNA sample corrupted with unknown contaminant, further analysis required. Do you wish to begin further analysis of DNA sample?"
"Yes, being further analysis" Ben commanded the watch.
"Understood. Further analysis began"
Many would have gasp at Ben's sudden knowledge of their language but they were already too stunned and confused to react.
Louise walked up to the strange boy and looked him right in the eyes "I don't know who you are and I don't care, but you should be thankful for someone of noble birth doing something like this to an obvious peasant like yourself" Ben stared confused at her while she raised her wand at his forehead "My name is Louise Françoise Le Blanc de La Vallière, oh pentagon that rules the five powers, bless this individual and make him my familiar"
Ben didn't get what she was talking about, but he was cut from thought as Louise grabbed hold of his T-shirts neck and pulled him into a kiss.
Ben pushed her away, not enough so she would fall but enough so she would let go of him "You kiss people you just met? Look, I ain't sayin you a ho, but that's on the spectrum-AHHHHH" Ben suddenly felt a great burning pain on his left hand that made him fall to his knees and pass out.
"Very well, the contract has been completed and the runes written" Explained Colbert "The bond has been made"
Louise was fuming, angry about the ho comment, but nodded.
"Everyone leave" Professor Colbert ordered his students as he casted a spell that made Ben and his bike levitate "Miss. Vallière you take your familiar with you to your room, I will take this object to my lab until it is necessary"

Ben growled and groaned, he felt like he went 3 rounds with an Appoplexian and lost on the first.
"So you finally decided to wake up"
Ben snapped his eyes open and was surprised to see the pinknett from before "YOU!"
Louise ignored her rude familiar, she could disciple him later "I thought about it enough to get white hair and have given up, as rude, annoying and disrespectful as you are, I will keep you as my familiar, be thankful you peasant"
Ben got to his feet "Listen here pinky, I don't know squad of what you are talking about but…"
Ben stopped talking and blushed as Louise began to take her clothes of, first the skirt then the shirt and throw them both at his face "Wash those and them iron them, you will do as I say as you are now my familiar"
Ben took the clothes from his face and throw them back at Louise's feet "I am NOT your laundry boy!" He raised his hand over the Omnitrix "You better explain everything right now or I'm going Rath on you, I don't care if you are a girl!"
"Well, you are now my familiar" Said an angry Louise "You were brought here when I performed the summoning ritual"
Ben still didn't get what she was talking about, familiar this ritual that.

Ben 9 was running for his life.
"Benjamin, come out to play!" Sinsong a joyful madman.
Ben 9 kept running. He ran as fast as his human legs could carry him, refusing to use the infernal watch. He swore never to use it again, not after it had cost him the life of his loved one.
"Benjamin, come out to play!" Sinsong the madman again.
Ben 9 made a turn hoping to lose him, unfortunately the turn lead to an alleyway. Trapping the young man to the mercy of the oh so very familiar and yet so strange young man on black and purple.
"Benjamin" Smiled the young man as he approached the cowering Omnitrix wilder "I have a proposition for you"
"Leave me alone!"
The smile on the young man didn't even twitch "But why be alone, when I can give you back the one that you miss the most"
Ben 9 got in a fighting position, but was shaking heavily with fear "I don't want anything from you!"
"Not even your fiance back?" Asked the madman.
Ben 9 could feel the tears coming up and did his best to keep them at bay "HELEN IS DEAD! She died because of me!"
The man's smile turned into a cunning grin, as if those were the exact words he was waiting for "Yes she did die, but with my help you can bring her back, you two can be together again and this time for eternity" The young man saw that Ben 9 was eating up his words like a starving man on a buffet "All you need to do is come work for me and help me in my cause"
Ben 9 couldn't believe that he was actually thinking about it.
This dude had hunted him down and now he was offering him the one thing he wanted most in the universe, to have the beautiful, funny and intelligent ½ Kineceleran Helen Wheels back. The same Helen Wheels that had died a month after he had asked her to marry him. The same Helen Wheels that had died because he hadn't listen and used the blasted piece of junk attached to his wrist. The same Helen Wheels that always asked him to do the right thing no matter what, and the same Helen Wheels to whom he swore never to disappoint, not even now.
Ben 9 threw a punch to the guy's head, but been out of practice after not fighting for so long, he was too slow and the young man in black and purple was able to dodge easily.
The young man graved effortlessly the head of Ben 9 and purple lightning traveled through Ben's body, turning the Omnitrix wearer into dust that got scater on the wind, leaving not a trace of him anywhere to be found.
"Pity" Said the murderer "I even bothered to get rid of the hybrid girl and blame it on him just to get a bargaining point, oh well, maybe something more extreme is required for the next Ben"

"So this is the kingdom of Tristan, in the continent of Halgaike with level one/two technology and you are a second year student at some Hogwarts wanna-be magic school only for nobles?" Ben deadpanned.
Louise put her hands on her hips and glared at him "You are correct but as my familiar you will not talk to me in such a disrespectful manner any longer, for I am Louise Françoise Le Blanc de La Vallière, your master!"
"Whatever" Ben said "And a familiar is supposed to be the servant of someone that has magic, that much I know from when I read thru Gwen's library"
Louise stomped her foot in the ground and covered her face with her hands "Why a peasant boy? I wanted something great like a griffin or a dragon"
Ben frown at Louise, she wanted something impressive then she would have it.
A bright green flash of light came from Ben and then he was nowhere to be seen.
Louise squeaked in fear and when she looked around the room she only saw the door been closed with force "He ran away? Are you serious?!"
She got dress in a hurry and left as soon as possible, not noticing the extra shadow that was resting on the wall on top of the door.
"Hehehe, she a-bought it"
Once Louise was out of the room a giant salamander like being with three triangular eyes, a scale on the top of its head, slender limbs and in an elegant coat and tie with the Omnitrix symbol on its wrists showed itself to be resting on the wall "ChamAlien? I a-wanted Big Chill but to each his own, just need to find my a-bike and leave this joint" Said the Alien with an Italian accent.
The again invisible chameleon like alien left the room and saw Louise looking at a hallway, searching for him. He quickly left through a circular staircase and heard the voices of two teens, one male the other one female.
"I would love to try one" Said the male one.
"Really?" Said the female one with hope in her voice.
"Of course Ketty, I wouldn't lie to your eyes" Said the male.
"Lord Guiche" Said Ketty love struck.
"There is nothing hidden behind my feeling for you" Said Guiche.
Ben had to hand it to the guy, he was a player and a good one. As a hormonal male teen he was tempted to make himself visible and give him a honor salute, but as ChamAlien he thought differently than normal, this often happened with some of his forms, in this form he became more mischievous and a show off.
Guiche was in the zone, another day another catch, he was sure that at the rate he was going to get Ketty to his bedroom and not leave the whole night. He was going to give the final blow but was stopped by the sight in front of him.
Moving in the light was a bodiless shadow, it was humanoid but at the same time it was not. It couldn't be but it clearly was, it definitely was the Mirtir demon his brother used to tell Guiche stories about until he pissed his bed.
"Lord Guiche what's wrong?" Asked Ketty, concerned for her love.
Guiche raised a shaking finger to the shadow.
Ketty gasped and hugged Guiche in fright.
The shadow stopped moving and slowly ran a finger by its throat, then ChamAlien revealed himself and with a shark like grin he whispered "Boo"
The two mages gave a scream of bloody murder, waking every inhabitant of the tower, many students got out of their rooms with theirs wands at hand, ready to fight whatever had scared the students.
Everybody was thrown back seeing the creature and they grew scared when it gave a mad man's laugh "It seems that I a-got myself something of a crowd here"
"What are you?" Asked Ketty.
ChamAlien turned itself invisible and climbed the wall unto the ceiling from where he called in an echoing voice "Your worst a-nightmare hahahaha!"
He kept walking leaving behind the shaking mages.
At that moment Louise ran down the stairs "WHERE IS HE?!"
Everyone pointed to where Ben's footsteps could still be heard.
"Catch him!" Ordered Louise "NOW!"
Fearing that she would bring a explosion upon them, everyone left to hunt the creature.
Ben was running on the ceiling, making sure he stayed on the shadows so he could not be found by the mod that seemed to be hunting him. He used his agility to reach the main floor were a guy was flirting at the foot of a fountain with a total 10 "Finally an exit"
"You heard something?" Asked the busty redheaded girl.
The mod ran into the main floor with Louise at the head.
A thirty year saw the shadow "There he is!" He shouted as he sent flying some conjured rocks at it.
ChamAlien was fast and agile enough to avoid most of them, but one was able to hit him right on the head scale.
"AHHH" He shouted as he involuntary made himself visible.
Many flinched in fear of the creature but Kirke casted a levitation charm and ChamAlien flew into the air "Let a-go of me!"
"Way to go Kirke!"
"You are the best!"
"I love you!"
Kirke threw her hair back in a dignified manner "I just did what I could, no biggie" In reality she only did it because it was clear that the Vallière brat was leading the group and she had to proof that she was always was better than the flat chested excuse of a mage.
"Let a-go of me!" Yelled ChamAlien as the Omnitrix timed out and turned back into Ben.
Kirche was so surprised that she stopped putting force into the spell and Ben felled flat to his stomach "Ow!"
Ben took advantage of the shock of the mod, which consisted of the entire student body, most of the staff and some professors by that point and ran out the door only to be freezed by his own shock at seeing two moons in the sky instead of one. The smaller being Vallier pink and the bigger Omnitrix green.

Back again to serve you internet freaks with your pimple covered face, greasy hair and your 2 inch di- HEY!
Yeah sorry, this is rated T, so nothing like that in here.
I have to make you know that this chapter is still shorter than what my average length in every chapter is going to be. This was about 9 pages to write, I already wrote the next one, well, I say wrote, more like I'm doing it right now and I am only in the middle with 13 pages completed.
I feel the need to inform you that since this story is set in the middle of Omniverse, I had to look for a new design for Chamalien and found a very good one. It is `Omniverse Chamalien by rizegreymon22´. It's on deviantart, go check it out. His designs for the aliens are going to be the ones that I use.
Some of you -The ones that actually read the story- must be wondering why Louis registered as a hybrid if she is human; My answer: Sasha.
If you have no idea what I mean then go read the light novel like right now. Yeah I'm talking to you, yes you, you know exactly who you are and if you think I'll ever forgive you then you understand very little and if you think are safe from me then you understand nothing at all.
Non that that's done with. Peace out, losers!
