Forrest
Wandering through an unknown forest we find Ben, now 6 years old without his biomnitrix and a way back to his own universe. After his universe shattering battle with Vilgax who had gained the powers of a cosmic being, Ben found himself sucked into a black hole ending up in his current situation.
"This just sucks, I'm 6 years old and I'm lost in the woods on a planet that I don't even know, heck, I might even be in a universe that I don't know" Ben says to himself
Ben looks at the omnitrix on his wrist and sees that it looks like the one he got when he was 10 during that summer vacation
"It probably works the same way the old one did" Ben says activating it
Ben touched the dial and it popped up, he began to twist it and see what aliens he had available to him. As Ben looked through the aliens, he saw the silhouettes of all his aliens not just the original 10 that the first omnitrix came with.
"This is a good sign, if Atomix is here along with the others, that means that Alien X is here" Ben said as he continued to twist the dial
As Ben continued to twist the dial he finally stopped on the silhouette of Alien X
"Great, now let's alter reality and get me out of here" Ben said as the core of the omnitrix popped up
As Ben slammed the core of the omnitrix down nothing happened, no flash of green light, nothing. Ben noticed this and tried to slam the core down once more to the same effect.
"Great, just great, my only ticket out of here and it doesn't work, now what am I'm going to do?" Ben asks himself as he sits down on a log
Ben sat there and thought about what he should do now that he couldn't get out of this mess right away. It didn't take him long but Ben was finally able to come up with an idea that might work.
"Sitting on my butt won't do me any good, looks like I've got to get up and do some exploring, maybe I'll find a camp with people in it or maybe a town" Ben said to himself
With that, Ben got up off the log he was sitting on and began to walk in the direction he thought he may find some help
Time Skip
Walking through the woods, Ben was unable to find anyone, all he found was more trees and forest animals. By this point, Ben was beginning to run out of hope that he'd find someone who could help him.
"Why did I think this would help me? Maybe I went in the wrong direction?" Ben asked himself before he heard a sound approaching him in the distance
Not wanting to take any chances, Ben hid behind a tree where he could and wait and see what that sound was and who or what was making it. Eventually Ben saw a man with a horse drawn cart come forward. The man wore glasses and had long hair, he was picking up pieces of wood and putting them in his cart. Not seeing a potential threat in this man, Ben decided that it would be safe to approach him and ask for help.
"Excuse me sir" Ben said as he stepped out from behind the tree
"My goodness, you scared me" the man said grabbing his chest
"Sorry about that sir, its just that I'm lost and I could use some help" Ben said
"I see that, how long have you been out here?" The man replied asking Ben a question
Ben needed to play this safe, he couldn't exactly go into full detail of who he was and what he could do. In order to not raise suspicion, Ben decided to do what Tetrax use to do, he would use the tactic known as "selective disinformation".
"I don't know sir, I can't exactly remember" Ben answered lying
"Well that isn't good, where are your parents?" The man asked Ben
"I don't know either" Ben answered continuing to lie
"Well from the looks of you I'd say you've been out here for some time, how did you manage to survive so long from those monstrous titans?" The man asked Ben
Ben was confused, he didn't know who or what a titan was so he decided to continue to play this confused act some more
"What are titans? Where am I?" Ben asked
"Poor boy, his whole family must have been eaten by those things and he's the only one left" the man thought to himself
"I think it would be best if you were to come with me son" the man said
"Okay sir" Ben said walking over to the cart
"My name is Grisha, what is yours son?" The man asked Ben introducing himself
"My name is Ben and I am 6" Ben answered continuing to play the part
"Well Ben, I think it is best if we head back to wall before a titan shows up" Grisha said sitting down on the cart
With that Grisha grabbed the reins got the horse moving which caused the cart to start moving. Ben looked back at the woods and realized that he was finally going to be safe and maybe get some answers about this new place he was in.
Time Skip
Grisha and Ben had been riding through the woods for some time now, they were headed to this place called wall Maria. On the way there Ben learned a lot about the new world he was in from Grisha. What Ben learned was that he was on a continent called Paradis Island. According to Grisha, mankind had been forced to live behind giant walls due to the fear of being eaten by large creatures they called titans. From what Grisha told Ben about titans, he definitely did not want to ever encounter one.
"Does anyone one know why the titans eat people?" Ben asked Grisha
"That is something no one knows, I hope to find this out someday" Grisha answered
"From what you've told me, they don't need to eat us to survive" Ben said
"That is true, maybe you would like to help me with my research?" Grisha asked Ben
"I wouldn't mind helping you as long as I can find a way back home" Ben answered
"That is good to hear, until then I think it would be best if you stayed with my wife and I, I'm sure my son Eren would enjoy to have someone his age besides Mikasa around" Grisha said
As the two continued on their way through the woods, something began to spook the horse causing it to stop pulling the cart
"Woah their girl, easy now" Grisha said trying to get the horse to calm down
"I think something is scaring it" Ben said looking around
"I think you would be right Benjamin, but what could it be?" Grisha asked
Just then a large naked male figure came slowly walking out onto the path in front of Ben and Grisha
"It's a titan" Ben said
"We need to get out of here now" Grisha said
As they tried to back up another shorter titan came out behind them
"We're trapped" Ben said
"Don't worry Benjamin, I will get us out of here safely" Grisha said
Ben looked around and knew that there wasn't a chance that either of them were going to get out of here alive unless Ben did something. Not seeing any other option, Ben decided to transform since the situation called for it. Ben jumped out of the cart and readied the omnitrix.
"Benjamin, get back in here" Grisha said to Ben
"Don't worry Grisha, I know what I'm doing" Ben replied activating the omnitrix
In a flash of green light Ben transformed into an alien, Grisha watched on in amazement. Ben had transformed into a large bulky alien who's body was made of a pale green crystal. It wore a black and white outfit and had two large crystal spikes coming out of its back. The omnitrix badge was located in the center of its chest.

"Grisha, I need you to stay back and don't move until I say its safe" Ben told Grisha

Ben in his Diamondhead form ran over to the first titan and began to fire crystal shards into its legs. From the looks of things it appeared as though that did nothing to the titan. Ben then formed his hands into crystal blades and began to cut at the legs of the titan. Once it fell over onto the ground, Ben fired crystal shards into its face.
"Benjamin" Grisha said gaining Ben's attention
Ben looked over and saw that the other titan was slowly lumbering over towards Grisha and the cart. Ben then acted quickly and placed his hands down onto the ground. Suddenly, large crystals shot up out of the ground and began to impale the small titan all over. Ben then ran over and jumped on top of the small titan with his armed formed into a blade.
"Grisha how do I kill this thing?" Ben asked
Grisha was still somewhat frozen from what was going on in front of him
"Grisha NOW!!! Before it breaks free" Ben yelled snapping Grisha out of his trance
"There is a nape on the back of its neck, if you cut it or destroy it, the titan won't regenerate anymore" Grisha said
"Thanks" Ben said as he began to swipe and cut at the back of the small titan's neck
Eventually, Ben was able to cut the nape at the right angle and the small titan finally fell to the ground dead. Its body began to heat up and melt as Ben jumped off of it.
"Benjamin" Grisha said fixing his glasses
"I know there is a lot we need to talk about but first let me deal with that last titan" Ben replied
Ben then turned his attention to the last remaining titan that was regenerating from the damage that Ben had done to it. Before it could get up and attack, Ben formed crystals out of the ground around its hands, holding it down in place. Ben then formed a hammer out of his left hand and charged at the titan. As Ben went to attack it, the titan leaned forwards and tried to eat him. Luckily Ben used his hammer to break the teeth and the jaw of the titan.
With the titan stunned, Ben formed crystal claws and climbed up the side of the titan's head. He then did the same thing to this titan that he did to the other titan. Now that both of the titans were dead, Ben transformed back to normal and walked over to Grisha and the cart.
"Soooo, where do we start?" Ben asked nervously
"Let's start with that" Grisha answered pointing at the omnitrix on Ben's wrist
Time Skip
Outside Wall Maria
Out of the woods Grisha steered the cart towards the gate that lead to the inside of wall Maria. As Ben rode alongside Grisha, he looked in amazement at the sheer scale of the wall. Grisha had said they had built large walls to keep them safe but he didn't think they would be that large.
"There it is Benjamin, wall Maria and inside of it, Shiganshina district where my home is located" Grisha said
"Those walls are huge, do the titans even get that tall?" Ben asked
Grisha chuckled at Ben's question
"Fortunately for us they don't" Grisha answered
Sitting back down, Ben remembered the conversation that he previously had with Grisha. He remembered how he explained who and what he was to Grisha. Of course Ben didn't tell the whole truth to Grisha but he did tell him enough. He told Grisha about the omnitrix and how it let him transform into an aliens. He also explained how he was from another universe who's technology was far more advanced then the technology in Grisha's universe. He did however leave out the details about him being originally 30 years old.
Grisha was amazed by all that Ben told him and to the surprise of Ben, Grisha actually believed him. The man also offered to help Ben find a way back to his own universe. Ben was grateful to all that Grisha was offering him but he couldn't help but worry about what Grisha had also told him.
"Benjamin, I must warn you, the people of this universe are not all that kind to those who are different then them, if they find out where you are from and what you can do they will either laugh and exile you or they will have you executed before you even have the chance to explain yourself, what is worse, if they find out I've been helping you and have given you a place to stay, they will execute both my family and I"
Those words rang through Ben's mind, he didn't want any of those things to happen him or Grisha and his family for that matter
"Okay Benjamin, like I said before, just keep your head down and let me do all of the talking" Grisha told Ben as they approached the gate
The cart stopped at the gate and two guards walked over to Grisha, Ben did what he was told and kept his head
"Your back early Grisha" a guard said
"I am, heck what can I say, don't want to keep the wife waiting" Grisha said with a chuckle
"You are right about that" the guard replied with a laugh
"Hey Grisha what do you got there?" The other guard asked pointing his sword at Ben
"Oh him, I found him wandering out in the woods alone" Grisha answered
"You and those strays Grisha, I swear what will your wife say?" The guard asked sarcastically joking
Grisha just laughed with the guards some more
"However, I will suggest that you send a few troops out into the woods, I did see some signs of titan activity and you know, where there is one there is bound to be more" Grisha told the guards
"We understand, we will make sure to someone on that, we don't want any titan attacks" one of the guards said
"However, keep all of that titan talk quiet, we don't want to cause a mass panic here" the other guard said
"Will do" Grisha replied
With that, the guards let Grisha and Ben on through the gates into the wall
"Okay then Benjamin, let us get to my home and remember let us keep all that alien business to ourselves" Grisha said to Ben
"Don't worry Grisha, my lips are sealed" Ben replied
A/N: Okay readers, Ben has officially entered wall Maria with Grisha. Now, for those who want to know, Ben won't always be transforming. He'll be dealing with a lot of his problems in his human form. Oh, also before I forget, for most of the alien designs I will be using elmike9's redesigned original alien concept designs. Now, I will be answering questions and responding to comments from the last chapter(s). ppsspp, no Ben will have access to just about all his transformations plus a few extra. With that question answered, let's get to responding to some comments. Bromega2477, oh don't worry this story is going to get far more interesting, oh and thanks, I made the art myself.
