Disclaimer: I own my story.
Dannyrockon122: This is a revamped of my previous story the Nameless but in this one, it will be focused on Ben who has been in the shadow of his omntrix-wielding cousin but Ben has his own secrets. This story will have elements of Kingdom Heart and Final fantasy.
( I have always been seen as the shadows that follow the light. My fate and destiny were decided by those who claimed to love and care for me.)
A little boy who resembles with auburn brown hair, dressed in a black-striped, white shirt with short sleeves, military green cargo pants with side pockets with a black belt hidden under his shirt, and black and white sneakers with black stripes wakes up revealing his emerald green eyes.
( But one day a single dream changed my fate.)
He appear to be floating in a strange abyss making him stare akin to confused and bewildered by his green eyes as he looked around.
The boy muttered," Where am I?" He looked around with confusion in his eyes as he lay trapped in the abyss.
This eleven-year-old Ben Tennyson
Ben felt his heart pumps as he falls deeper into the abyss, his eyes closed. The empty nothingness becomes water, and bubbles form in the wake of his descent. He reaches a barrier and his eyes blink open with a flash
Ben let out a gurgle causing him to cover his mouth then he felt a pull as falls back, eyes closed, sinking deeper as bubbles trail him. He stirs awake and manages to right himself before settling onto a dark platform. He looks around and takes a step forward.
Ben looked around with fear in his eyes as he looked around with confusion and a bit of fear as he looked at the platform.
A light shines down from above as a large stone pedestal rises from the platform in a shower of light and turns toward it. A large stone pedestal blinks into existence with a magical construct floating above it.
Ben muttered," What is that?" He looked at the pedestal with confusion and interest on his face.
A second pedestal rises from the platform, a mighty metal sword floating above
it. He turns around to face it.
A third pedestal appears in front of the boy, who turns toward it. It has an image depicted as pair of hands with a white orb glowing.
Ben muttered," What is this ?" He looked around the platform with such widened eyes.
" Choose your destiny, Ben, with this, you'll decide your own future."
Ben asked," My future ?" He looked at the pedestals with the items and he approaches one.
" Yes, Your future! Choose wisely!"
Ben approached the pedestal with the magical construct with a look of curiosity on his face.
"With that magic, you'll be able to make constructs that will give you the ability to shield yourself."
Ben thought about the power of constructs but the power didn't feel right to him causing him to move away from the pedestal.
He made his way towards the pedestal with the metal sword with a curious expression on his face the grabbed the sword and he starts to inspect it.
"The sword will grant you the ability to cut anything in your path, even the space itself."
Ben muttered," Tempting but not for me." He puts the sword away and walked toward the last pedestal.
"With the power of creation, you can imagine your own future, where you can rule what you create without limits."
This choice for some reason this power made Ben intrigued as approached it and then touched it.
" Ah! So you selected the power of creation? Is this the power you seek?
Ben nodded," I do." He looked at his chosen power with a look of approval on his face.
"Now, what will you give up in exchange?"
Ben looked between the two pedestals and he ran over to the magical pedestal,
" Ah, the wonders of the magical construct. Great but terrible give up this power?
Ben says," Yes I do." He nodded his head as he sure he want to give up the power of magical construct.
The magical construct disappeared.
"You've chosen the power of the creation. You've given up the power of the magical construct. Is this the form you choose?"
"Yes!"
( I have been given a chance to break the chains that have been placed upon me by my so-called family.)
Fast forward to the present we see in a secluded place in the forest a forest by a grave.
( Dream Away - Day 7)
The figure is revealed to be eighteen-year-old Ben Tennyson who resembles Lars Alexandersson from Tekken dressed in ears and a green vest over a white dress shirt with matching green pants and black shoes,
He is holding a bouquet of flowers while looking down with a sad look on his young face as he stares down at the grave.
The tombstone has the words " Elena Vladius " with the dates being June 7, 1996, to August 10, 2012.
Ben muttered sadly," Hey Elena how are you? I am here again trying to pretend you can hear me and I go muttering on about how my parents, Grandparents along with Gwen's parents are kissing her ass." He sighed to himself as tried not to go on about his so-called family.
Ben stated," I am no longer a part of the plumbers anymore. I couldn't take dealing with Max's and Gwen's crap anymore. I know I promised that I wouldn't let my emotions get the better of me but dammit, I dealt with enough shit from those two." He gained a slight scowl as he thought about what caused him to leave the plumbers.
Ben uses to be a plumber and he was a darn good one as he went through the training, unlike Gwen who was handed the title of a Plumber.
Ben gain a reputation as a hardworking, dependable, plumber, but one mission changed as he and some squad members with Gwen were sent to stop a Xenobic group called The Forever Knights from executing some innocent alien civilians in Undertown.
Ben and his squad tried to come up with some plans, but Gwen charged recklessly in her Heatblast form.
She nearly burned a quarter of Undertown with her flames until Ben managed to splash her with some water.
The Mission was a success, but Gwen took all of the credit and Grandpa believed her as always.
Ben and Grandpa Max got into an argument about the mission where Grandpa Max called him a failure causing Ben to snap as he punches his once-beloved Grandpa in the face along with turning in his badge signaling his resignation from the plumbers.
Ben hasn't looked back as he learned the plumbers begin to cover up Gwen's actions.
Ben ran away from home as he was sick and was tired of dealing with being treated like he doesn't matter in his so-called family.
Ben stated angrily," I am sick of earth. I am sick of always being stuck in the shadows of Gwen! I just want to leave this planet! There are only a few people I care about that I have left!" He takes a minute to cool down.
He wants to leave earth as he is sick of tiring of being made the sidekick of Gwen and dealing with the egos of his cousin and his so-called grandmother.
He is sick of always being shoved into the darkness.
He wants to escape the fate that his so-called parents have apparently written for him.
Ben said," Elena I hope to see you again soon. I can't move on without you. You were the one who kept me from going AWOL. " He looked down at the tombstone as he kneel down and places the bouquet of flowers down.
Ben leans forward and kisses the head of the tombstone then he rises up then he begins walking away.
As Ben walked away from the tombstone he thought about the memories he had shared with Elena and he gained tears in his eyes.
Ben thought," I wish there was something to make the pain go away." He wishes there is something that can take his mind away from the woman he loved with all of his heart who was now dead.
As Ben walked along the road where cars drive past him as he walked down until he see a gas station.
Ben looked at the gas station then he turned his eyes back to the road until he hears his stomach grumbling.
Ben muttered," Maybe I grabbed myself a drink since I feel like I am going to need one." He made his way toward the gas station.
Ben made him into the gas station and he heard a female letting out a grunt.
Ben thought," Oh! What this ?" He hears the sounds of the feminine grunt and he looked at the source.
He gets a bit closer as made his way toward the source of the grunts and he sees the woman kicking at a snack machine.
"Stupid thing."
Ben see the woman and he sees he notices her back, I turned but she has shoulder-brown hair and a thin body wearing a white blouse, red slim jeans, and black heel that was currently kicking the snack machine.
Ben couldn't help but stare at her as her long dark brown hair was very beautiful and it reminded him of someone causing another woman to take her place making Ben gain a sad frown.
The woman was about to kick the machine until she saw Ben's reflection in the glass as he stares at her causing her to turn around and said," Excuse Me?
Ben snapped out of his stupor as he heard the woman's heavily accented voice which him to look at her face where he notices she was around her age with tan skinned, and hazel brown eyes.
Ben thought," Sh- She beautiful." He looked at the young woman with a look akin to a deer in headlights.
The young woman asked concerned, "Are you okay?" A look of concern appeared in her hazel brown eyes.
Ben lied gruffly," I am right and I am just a bit tired. I noticed you are having a bit of trouble with the vending machine." He gestured towards the vending machine and he see the woman's face showing irritation.
The woman groaned, "Yeah this thing made a candy bar I wanted to be stuck in the glass." She gestured towards the machine where her candy bar is stuck in the holder.
Ben smirked and wordlessly walked towards the vending machine he shakes the machine it then causing a small sound to be heard then Ben made his way towards the part where you got to pick up the candy and he stuck his hand in it then pulled it out to the woman's surprises.
"Wow, you're good."
Ben quipped," Thanks and I believe this is yours?"He held out the young woman's candy bar with a small smirk on his face.
The young woman smiled," "Thanks and my name is Sandra ."She took the candy bar from Ben's extended hand.
Ben stated," Nice to meet you Sandra and my name is Ben." He held out his hand for a handshake with a smile.
She shakes his hand and smiles. "So what are you doing here in the middle of the road?"
Ben's friendly face shifted to a sad expression as he stated softly," I was visiting a good friend of mine who was laid to rest a few months back"
Sandra winced as she heard the sad tone coming from and she mentally kicked herself for asking such a tactless question.
Sandra apologized," Oh my god! I'm so sorry!" She looked at Ben with sympathy in her hazel brown eyes.
Ben lied," It's quite alright !" Ben waved it off Sandra as he tried to mask his inner turmoil in front of the friendly woman.
Sandra asked," Are you sure? Do you want to talk about or what?" She looked at Ben with curiosity and concern.
Before Ben could utter a word he see in the reflection of the snack machine's glass something speeding towards the gas station.
Ben narrowed his eyes as he saw the unknown object he dives at Sandra pushing her out of the way as the object hits the gas station.
Sandra groaned as she lays on the ground and she felt something or someone on top of her making her look up to see it was Ben who looked red in the couldn't but stare at Ben as she looks at him and she see he very dashing with his emerald eyes.
Wait ! Emerald Eyes.
Sandra has seen those types of eyes before one when she was young in a dream and the second on a certain person whom she hates.
Ben apologized," I'm sorry." He gets to his feet and turned around to see the gas station blown to kingdom come.
Ben muttered," Damn! Who could have done this?" He narrowed his eyes with disgust and anger for destruction.
" Tennyson !''
Ben let out a groan female voice causing him to turn around to see an unwanted female figure with an angry look.
The female appeared to be an older woman with lighter skin and shoulder-length red hair. She wore steel black and red armor with five silver spikes on each of her shoulder pads. She still wore her skull emblem on her chest.
This is Rojo.
Ben muttered," It had to be Rojo!"He looked at the enemy of his cousin with an annoyed look on her face.
Note: Here is the first chapter of the fic and we see Ben when he was younger on how he received his power which is similar to how Sora gained his in the present who came from visiting his former love Elena's grave and now he meets Sandra who from the Tyson Mysteries show. What do you think Sandra meant by distant memories? I wonder what weapon should Ben have.
