"Man this just sucks" Ben says to himself as he puts his phone away
Ben leaned back on the side of the Rustbucket in dismay, he had really wanted to go on another summer road trip. Unfortunately no one was able to go with him, not Gwendolyn, not Kevin, Rook couldn't go, not even Ben's grandpa Max could go. Ben tried to invite Kai but she was in the Gobi desert looking for ancient alien artifacts.
"The one time I wanted to do something that didn't involve aliens or heroes and this happens" Ben says to himself
"Don't be like that Ben honey, why don't you invite your cousin Lucy to go with you?" Ben's mom asked him as she tried to comfort him
"She was one of my fallback options if Gwendolyn couldn't come but she's busy in another star system doing plumber work" Ben answered
"Well hun, I'm sorry things aren't working out for you, maybe you can try again some other time" Ben's mom said
"This was the only time I could do it, I'm not busy saving Earth or the universe but I guess everyone else has other plans" Ben says
"Your father and I would love to go with you Ben but we have things we need to do here" Ben's mom said
"Don't worry about it mom, I guess I'll just go on a road trip by myself" Ben said
"Okay sweetheart, just make sure you take plenty of pictures and always call home" Ben's mom said
"Alright mom" Ben replied
Ben then took the key to the Rustbucket out of his pocket and unlocked the door. Ben then opened the door and walked into the RV ready to leave. Unknowingly Ben walked in on Azmuth along with Myaxx who were both in the RV.
"Hey there Azmuth" Ben said
"Hello Benjamin" Azmuth replied
"Wait a minute, Azmuth, what are you doing here?" Ben asked confused
"I am here to deliver a few things to you before you leave for your trip Benjamin" Azmuth answered
"What are these things you are delivering exactly?" Ben asked
"Let me show, girls, come forwards" Azmuth answered
Suddenly three girls came forwards and lined up in front of Ben, two of them looked older while one of them looked like a child. That wasn't the only thing that Ben noticed about the girls, immediately he noticed that all three girls looked like a female version of him.
"Um Azmuth, I have some questions" Ben said
"Before you ask Benjamin, yes they clones, well I should say imperfect clones of you" Azmuth said
"Why did you clone me exactly and why are the female?" Ben asked confused
"I cloned you because at the time I feared you would prove yourself unworthy to wield my omnitrix but in the end you proved yourself worthy" Azmuth answered
"That answers one of my questions but not the other one" Ben said
"As for your second question, the reason they are female is because every time I used your X chromosome it somehow became a Y chromosome during the incubation period" Azmuth explained
"And from what you see Ben, the first thinker failed three times" Myaxx said speaking up from her spot
"My assistant is partially right, while they were not perfect clones of you they still biologically contain the DNA that makes up you" Azmuth told Ben
"That answers that but what are you doing here with them?" Ben asked
"Simple really, I've taught them all I can on Galvan Prime but there are things that I cannot teach them" Azmuth answered
"And that is?" Ben asked
"I cannot teach them basic social skills, human etiquette that sort of thing, also I am unable to show them what it means to be a hero" Azmuth answered
"That why your leaving them with me" Ben said
"Precisely, now girls introduce yourself to Ben" Azmuth said
The first girl stepped forwards, out of the three she looked the oldest. Her hair was brown and she kept it in a single braid. She had an earing in her left ear and had a butterfly hairclip in her hair. She had light golden almost amber eyes and she had freckles on her face. The outfit she was wearing was a turtleneck sweater and a red dress like skirt
"Hi there my name is Lilly and you could consider me the big sister between those two" she said introducing herself to Ben
"Hey there Lilly, I hope you are able to help me out" Ben replied
Next the second girl stepped forwards, right away Ben could tell that she was the wild child trickster of the bunch. She has brown hair that was long and messy almost unkempt. She wore red long-sleeved shirt with black stripes on the sleeves and skull on the front. She also wore skinny jeans and skater shoes that were hot pink and black. Her eyes were a dark grey color and she had what looked like a scar under right eye.
"Sup, my name is Rosemary but you can call me Rose" she said introducing herself
"Hey there Rose, I hope that we can get along" Ben said
Last up was the younger looking girl, she had short brown hair that was neck length. She had on a pink shirt that had short sleeves, she was wearing a white skirt with black leggings. Before she introduced herself, a small blue Vulpimancer pup jumped onto her shoulder.
"Um hey there my name is Allie and this is Mutt" the girl said introducing both herself and the Vulpimancer pup to Ben
"Hey there Allie, hey there Mutt, my name is Ben and let me tell you this, we are going to have an awesome time on the road" Ben said getting down eye level to Allie
"Alright, with introductions out of the way, I leave you these three" Azmuth said
"Alright, I'll take care of them" Ben said
"Oh before I forget, Myaxx, give him the packages" Azmuth told Myaxx
Myaxx got up and walked over to Ben, she then handed him three small probes that looked like the thing that held the prototype omnitrix all those years. Ben took them and opened one of them up, inside was an omnitrix device that resembled the original that Ben got when he was 10.
"Each one of those is for them, there isn't any DNA programed into them, you can decided on which transformations they can have" Azmuth said
"Okay Azmuth" Ben replied
With that Azmuth jumped onto Myaxx's shoulder and the two teleported out of the Rustbucket leaving Ben with the girls
"Okay girls, you hold onto these for now" Ben said handing each girl an omnitrix
Right away Rose took and tried to use it
"Come on give me Atomix, no how about Alien X" Rose said trying to activate the omnitrix
Ben watched and couldn't help but laugh a bit, the scene reminded him of when he was younger
"Rose didn't you hear Azmuth tell Ben, there isn't any DNA programmed into them" Lilly told Rose
"I didn't hear that at all" Rose said
"What did you hear?" Allice asked Rose
"All I heard was that we get our own omnitrix" Rose answered
"And with your own omnitrix comes certain rules and responsibilities" Ben said speaking up
"Ben, when can we use them?" Lilly asked
"I will program the DNA in them when we get to the campsite, then we'll go over the rules of using them" Ben answered
"Okay" all three girls said
Ben then moved over to the driver seat of the Rustbucket and put the key into the ignition. Once he turned the key and started the Rustbucket he felt the hum of the engine and took off. He may of not been expecting to have three female clones of himself dropped off by Azmuth but he wasn't going to turn them away. In some sort of way, the girls felt like sisters to Ben and he wasn't going to push family away. Then there was the fact that he finally had someone to go on this road trip with him.
Time Skip
Campsite
By the time that Ben had gotten on the road and had gotten to the campsite, the sun had gone down. The girls were anxious about getting their omnitrix and what aliens Ben was going to program into them. But on the way there Rose couldn't help but mess with Lilly. It reminded Ben of how he was when he and Gwendolyn were 10. Thankfully Allie was there to keep the two from killing one another, Ben could see how their relationship was.
"Alright girls, I am going to give each one of you a piece of paper and you are going to write down 10 aliens that you want" Ben told the girls
"Why only 10?" Rose asked
"Because when I first got the omnitrix I started out with 10 transformations so you will, either that or you don't get any transformations" Ben answered
Hearing that Rose quieted down and began to write the 10 transformations that she wanted, as did the other two girls. Quickly Rose came up to Ben and handed him her list of 10 aliens she wanted. Ben looked over at the list to check and see what she picked.
"1. Atomix, 2. NRG, 3. Alien X, 4. Ghostfreak, 5. Gravattack, 6. Waybig, 7. Rath, 8. Gutrot, 9. Clockwork, 10. Toepick"
Ben went over the list and crossed out the names of aliens he thought Rose shouldn't have before handing it back to her
"Pick new ones to replace the ones that are crossed out" Ben told her
"But that's like the entire list" Rose replied with a whine
"Do you not want an omnitrix?" Ben asked with his arms crossed
"Fine" Rose said before going back to rework her list
Lilly then came forwards and gave Ben her list of 10 aliens
"1. Chromastone, 2. Swampfire, 3. XLR8, 4. Ampfibian, 5. Crashhopper, 6. Four Arms, 7. Brainstorm, 8. Upgrade, 9. Astrodactyl, 10. Lodestar"
"Okay, this looks good" Ben said giving Lilly the all clear
Ben put the list down and took Lilly's omnitrix and began to program the DNA of the aliens Lilly wanted into the omnitrix
"Of course she gets the aliens she wanted right off the bat" Rose said pouting
"Well Rose, the aliens she selected were reasonable" Ben replied
"Fine, whatever, here's my new list" Rose said handing Ben her new list
Ben went over this list and saw some improvement over the last list
"1. Big Chill, 2. Stinkfly, 3. Upchuck, 4. Snare-Oh, 5. ChamAlien, 6. Heatblast, 7. Water Hazard, 8. Diamondhead, 9. Humungousaur, 10. Buzzshock"
"Lilly come over here for a second" Ben said
Lilly walked over and showed her Rose's list of aliens
"What do you think?" He asked her
"From the looks of it, she'll use most of those for pranks and tricks" Lilly answered
"Yeah I saw that as well" Ben said
"But other then that, the list is good" Lilly said
Rose hearing that quietly cheered and gave an arm thrust in the air
"We'll deal with the pranks later" Ben said to himself
The last one to hand her list to Ben was Allie
"Here you go Ben" Allie said as she gave Ben her list
"1. Wildvine, 2. Cannonbolt, 3. Wildmutt, 4. Terraspin, 5. Feedback, 6. Rocks, 7. Eeattle, 8. Ballweevile"
"Um, Allie why did you only put 8? You know I said you could have 10?" Ben asked
"I didn't know which other two I should have so I picked 8" Allie answered
"Okay then, why don't we add Greymatter for brains and Fasttrack for a quick getaway" Ben suggested
"Okay, I guess" Allice said
With that Ben took Allie's omnitrix and programmed the selected aliens into it. Once that was done, Ben sat the girls down and gave them the rules for the their omnitrix.
"Okay girls, I don't have a lot of rules for using your omnitrix but I have them none the less" Ben told them
"We're listening" Lilly said
"Alright, we are going on a road trip around the states, during this trip we're going to try and blend in just a bit" Ben began
Rose raised her hand
"What is it Rose?" Ben asked
"How exactly are we going to blend in, you're a famous hero who has saved the planet thousands of times?" Rose asked
"Good question, I've charted out our course and I've made sure that we go to places were people don't exactly know who I am" Ben answered
"But I am going to assume that there will be those that do?" Lilly asked
"That is true who knows how many of those people there will be, that is were my rules begin" Ben answered
"First rule, no transforming in public" Ben said
Rose was going to say something but Ben stopped her
"Unless it is an emergency, such as the big three attacking or say a car is speeding down the street and its brakes don't work" Ben said
Allie raised her hand
"What is it Allie?" Ben asked
"Um Ben, what exactly are the big three?" Allie asked
"Yeah, I want to know what that is too" Rose said
"Same here" Lilly said
"The big three is simply this, aliens, super villains and robots" Ben answered explaining what the big three was to the girls
"Any other rules besides that?" Lilly asked
"Yes, a few more rules besides that one, besides no transforming in public, I don't want you trying to hack your omnitrix for more transformations or anything else, if you want a new transformation you have to prove to me your ready for one" Ben answered
Lilly and Allie looked over at Rose who was already mess with her omnitrix
"This is going to be a long road trip" Ben said to himself
"Are those your only rules?" Lilly asked Ben
"No, there is one more important one, if we come into a position where say we encounter an enemy like Vilgax, I want you three to listen to me, if I say transform you transform if I say run you run" Ben answered
"Understood?" Ben asked the girls
"Understood Ben" the girls answered
"Good other then that I am a pretty laid back guy, I do expect certain things out of you but nothing serious and demanding" Ben said
With that Ben dismissed the girls and let them do their own thing, while the girls ran out, Ben began to get dinner ready for them. Unlike when he was 10, Ben wasn't going to make the girls eat mealworms, sheep's tongue or anything like that. He would have them try new foods that not only smelt good but also tasted good but also a few smoothies every now and then.
"Rosemary, WHAT THE HECK!!!"
Ben let out a sigh hearing that
"Let the fun begin" Ben said to himself
A/N: Hey there readers, if you couldn't tell, I am doing a Ben 10 story where Ben goes on a summer road trip with his "sisters". I wanted to do a story like this for awhile, Ben gets sisters he never knew he had and one where he just goes on a road trip like he did when he and Gwen were 10. Of course I will have to occasional villain attack or disaster like in the original series but there won't be one in every chapter. I want to do something different, something new and something kind of family friendly. For the names of the girl's transformations, right now and for a little bit they won't have their own unique names. I will mostly be coming up with them myself but they doesn't mean I don't want to see suggestions from you readers.
As for right now, I am going to be keeping this short since it is technically the first chapter. Thank you all for reading and for your support, I will be seeing you all later
