A Fourteen-year old young man, named Alexander Tennant or just simply Alex, was currently bored out his mind. Here he sat in the back of his school class room with his head draped over his hand with half idled eyes as he listened to his teacher rant and rave over a lesson that she thought was necessary.

Alex is a teenage boy with short, messy brown hair with light blue eyes. He has a muscular frame, but is generally lean and stood of slightly above average height. He wore a white striped black shirt with short sleeves. With slightly baggy blue pants, and black sneakers

Alex yawned silently as stared forward with a bored look in his eyes

'I mean seriously, it's like a few minutes before Summer vacation starts. What can be so important?' Alex thought with squinted eyes as he peered over to the clock in the corner of the room and read the time.

'Sometimes I really hate school… okay never mind. I always hate school.' He thought in frustration as he sat in boredom for the next few minutes. 'Though, I wonder where Grandpa Is taking me this Summer. It better not be dull… though knowing him, it will be unpredictable.' The blue-eyed teenager thought as the bell finally rung and the class erupted in a frenzy of papers and cheers. All this the teacher trying to calm everybody down but failing miserably. "Well... if he does take me somewhere."

He just chuckled silently in amusement as he left his seat with his black backpack on and walked out the door.


Alex had headphones on which were connected to his MP3 player, which he may or may not have modified, all the while doing a sort of waltz as he walked home. He didn't live too particularly far from home so he didn't see the point in using the bus.

He bent down just a little bit and scratched the neighborhood cat on the top of its head. Alex pulled out his house key as he stepped onto the porch steps, unlocked it, went inside and closed it behind him.

Alex threw his pack back and stretched. "Thank god.", he yawned as he walked into the kitchen.

Like always, he was alone in his decently sized house, or at least for a while. His eyes were quickly drawn to a note taped in the fridge. It read as follows:

Hey, I'm not going to be home for a few hours so help yourself to whatever. Your grandfather is coming to pick you up to go camping later so pack up what you need.

I love you sweetheart

~ Mom.

"So gramps is taking me somewhere... sweet.", Alex said with a slight smile as he set the note aside. He picked up his Nintendo to pass the time quicker.

A few hours had passed and Alex was sitting in his grandfathers truck. His grandfather himself was an elderly man, with white hair and a full white beard, he has dark brown eyes and a muscular build. He wore a plaid shirt with a black shirt underneath, jeans and boots. "So, ready to go camping?", Oscar asked his grandson.

"Yeah, I was actually thinking you wouldn't take me.", Alex said with a chuckle.

Oscar smiled as he kept his eyes on the road. "Hope you don't mind that I invited an old friend of mine. He's taking his grandkids here on their first stop, I think you'd get along with them.", he said as he looked at him... in which Alex didn't look too excited anymore. "I know you don't like me and your parents trying to hook you up with kids around your age but you need friends eventually."

"Yeah, whatever."

"Just promise you'll at least attempt?", Oscar turned his eyes back on the road as Alex just sighed and gave him a thumbs up as a sign that he'd attempt at it.

As it got dark, Alex decided to rest for a bit until he just fell asleep completely. Oscar was extremely tempted to smack him awake as the time went by. Night settled in right as Oscar arrived. "Alright, wake up.", he smacked Alex on the chest in which he jolted awake. "We're here."

"Dammit and I was having such a nice dream.", Alex said with a yawn and a slightly raspy tone as he unbuckled his seat belt, opened the door and went to get the camping gear.

Oscar got out and stretched. "Oscar!", he turned to see an older man, maybe around his age but not as muscular. He had white hair and a white beard, he was similarly muscular for his age but not as much as Oscar was. He wore a red Hawaiian shirt with orange flower patterns with a light brown vest, blue pants and brown shoes.

"Max, it's been a while.", Oscar said as he and Max shook hands. "How ya been?"

"Well I'm still alive.", Max said as he noticed Alex walking towards them with the supplies. "You must be Alex, I'm Max.", he said as the three walked over to a wooden table with two children, younger than Alex

One was slightly shorter than the other. He has shaggy brown hair, green eyes, pale skin, and he's quite skinny for his age. His consisted of a black-striped, white shirt with short sleeves resembling a baseball shirt, military green cargo pants with side pockets with a black belt hidden under his shirt, and black and white sneakers with black stripes.

The somewhat taller one had red hair held by a blue hair clip and green eyes and wore a blue raglan shirt with a cat logo on her chest, white capris, and a pair of white shoes with dark blue stripes.

"Kids, this is an old buddy of mine Oscar and his grandson Alex. This is Ben and Gwen.", Max said introducing them, of course Oscar knew of them but he hadn't met them ever... Alex never met them ever.

Ben just gave a wave as Gwen just didn't even bother. "Wow, not even a word and she hates me already.", Alex thought to himself as Oscar took the camping supplies out of his arms.

"Me and Max'll whip something up in that shitty RV of his.", Oscar said with a chuckle as Max looked at him, then at his beat up truck.

"Coming from you, I find that offensive.", Max said as he and Oscar walked into the RV.

Alex simply slid in across from Ben, before looking at Gwen then back at Ben. "Question?", Ben looked up.

"Answer."

"Do you like Sumo Slammers?"

"Yeah, but I like Samurai Jack better. That or Cowboy Bebop."

"What? But Sumo Slammers is way better!"

"It's just a morbidly obese Japanese man wandering around kicking the shit out of people!"

"Yeah but it's cool to watch!"

"Yeah yeah sure whatever you say. But everybody can admit that nobody below the age of 10 likes Xingo."

"Oh yeah definitely.", Ben nodded as Gwen shot them both a look.

"Why do I get the feeling she hates me already?"

"Eh, it's just her being a dweeb I guess.", Ben said with a slight shrug as Gwen narrowed her eyes at him. "What? Just sayin."

"Yeah you're eyes basically say 'touch me and I'll break your nose'.", Alex said as Ben looked at him and nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I don't think you should me talking about me like that. Y'know, considering we just met, you don't even know me.", Gwen crossed her arms with a pout.

Alex simply smirked. "Well I can tell you're an uptight smart mouthed brat.", he said as Ben laughed.

"She is.", Ben and him hi-fived each other. "We're gonna get along just fine, new guy.", the brown haired ten year old actually kind of liked Alex.

Alex was sorta surprised at his own actions, but maybe he needed to get some interactions in unless he wants to die an old hermit. "Yeah I hope so."

"Great, now I have deal with two idiots.", Gwen said with a sigh.

"Please, you have a whole schedule on what you're gonna do for the summer. Who does that?" Ben cocked his eyebrow amused.

"Well I mean, it's not too much of a bad idea. I'd do that, like how much time to do you waste dickin around trying to figure out what you're trying to do?", Ben and Gwen had two completely different reactions. Gwen was surprised but also relieved someone agreed with her, Ben was just surprised and shocked. "Hey I'm bein' honest here."

"Well at least someone here won't bad mouth for it.", Gwen said with a smirk aimed towards Ben.

"Anyways, I'll set up the tents. Help me out.", Alex said as he stood up. Gwen and Ben sighed, but they went started doing their respective tents. Just as they got done, Max called them over to the campfire, while he was cooking whatever. It looked like a mix between squid and lettuce.

The three of them just shared the same expression. "Hah, looks like your gramps has the same horrible cooking too.", Alex said with a smirk.

"If it ain't broke don't fix it.", Oscar quoted with a shrug.

"On a serious note, you're not going to make us eat that... are you?", Gwen asked with a grossed-out look of her face.

"Yeah cant we have like a burger or something?", Ben said nervously Alex just chuckled a little in amusement and he slung his arm over their shoulders. whispered something.

"C'mon, it's not that bad.", Alex mocked with a full-blown smirk, causing them to look even worse.

"Seriously, please tell me we aren't eating... what ever that is." Gwen pleaded again with a serious, yet desperate look in her eyes.

"Well... while you two pipsqueaks figure that out, I'mma go for a walk.", Alex informed them before he walked away.

"He's just doing this as an excuse to not eat anything, isn't he?", Gwen asked in deadpanned tone. Oscar didn't say anything, he just smiled as he stared into the fire. Ben was just sad someone else did the same thing he was going to pull.


He was walking deep into the forest, which was relatively quiet. Alex had to admit, so far, things have been fairly boring. The only amount of 'excitement' he felt was when he talked with Ben and Gwen. Though even that was pretty mundane. He just wanted something to happen and he needed it now.

'Although, this night is... peaceful. I like it.", Alex commented in his head he stared in the night, dark sky that was lit up by numerous amounts of stars. The sound of crickets chirping and the sound birds flying off into the distance was pretty calming. At least, that what thought.

Just then, something caught his eye, he peered off to his right and saw something flicker into the sky. Curious, he squinted his eye to get a better look and was immediately shocked as he saw a shooting star... a strange looking one nonetheless.

'Huh... isn't that thing getting a little close? Oh... SHIT!' Alex thought in panic as he began to run away, without thinking, he quickly ran up a tree and jumped up a few branches and found a sturdy one and crouched on it. He idly watched as the meteor crashed straight into the ground, causing an eight-foot deep crater.

Alex watched with now wide eyes as it crashed, he curious and hopped down from the tree and walked over to the meteor with one thought on his mind. He quickly noticed his glasses were gone... but already found them since they weren't that far. Back to his thought. "Should I call Grandpa? Hmmm... nah.", he dismissed the thought the second it popped up. He was just hoping for at least some excitement.

Alex stopped right over the ledge of the crater and looked down inside of it. "Looks like some sort of container or satellite or something", Alex thought with a small smirk as he slid safely down as he crouched. Once he got down inside the crater, he instantly felt the amount of heat that sphere was holding. "Probably coming from up there.", Alex reasoned as he walked forward and ignored the ever-so increasing temperature.

Just as he got within a few feet of it, the containment sphere opened up and deep within it, a flash green was seen. Alex looked inside of it and walked a little closer to try and see what it was. He was shocked to see what looked to be looked like a very big wristwatch, primarily black and grey in color, with a black dial in the middle of the watch face which had a green hourglass shape. It had four green emeralds embedded into the dial and pointed at four different directions, two green buttons were located on the left and right sides. Two white like protrusions wrapped itself around the device, circling itself back towards the dial.

Even more curious, Alex reached inside slowly and tried to grab the watch, but just as he hand went inside the sphere, the watch literally jumped up and latched onto his wrist, taking on a gelatinous form as it latched onto his left wrist before reforming again. Alex stopped for a few seconds before he rapidly tried to pull it off, occasionally shouting profanities while doing so. After he few minutes, he stopped trying and climbed out of the crater and began walking.

"Welp, since I'm stuck with this thing I might as well figure out what you can do.", Alex questioned himself, the whole situation was confusing to say the least. "Considering there's a dial here, you've gotta do something... hopefully."

Suddenly, an idea popped into his head, he began fidgeting with the device once more, but this time, in a controlled manner. Just then, he pressed down on the front green button and with a robotic beep, its gentle green brightening into a toxic-chemical green and the faceplate springing up. The dial left its outline, and soon the black interior of the watch was revealed, interlaced with dark green lines. The display of the faceplate changed as well, with the black triangles forming the middle of the green hourglass moving towards, then past each other, and forming a green diamond shape with the black filling in the edges. A black silhouette of a humanoid with some sort of flaming head.

"What the hell is that thing?", Alex asked as he inspected it, upon closer inspection it actually had some detailing. "Well since nobody is here...", he smiled as he applied a slight amount of pressure to push the dial back down before erupting in a dazzling bright flash of green light.

For what felt like a few seconds, Alex watched his body get covered with a dark red rocks, he wanted to scream... but realize it didn't hurt. In fact it kinda felt like a really good stretch and a cramp at the same time. He felt his body heat rise exponentially, exploding into a burst of fire.

Within a blink of an eye he opened his eyes again, he felt like himself but not himself. There was one thing he noticed... he felt taller, Alex went to rub his eyes but his hands weren't his.

This new form he took was humanoid, but only in shape. The skin was broken into smoldering red plates of molten rock, with two indents on his shoulders to appear like craters. Between the plates ran fiery orange magma, moving like blood. The hands and feet were made of this hot material, the figure opening and closing his hand. The head looked like a mask wreathed in flames. He didn't have anything to call an eye, only having two holes shaped like it with two lines running down the sides of his face. A small piece detached itself at the mask's bottom, forming the chin and mouth. The device was lodged itself in the center of his collar, now resembling a badge with a white hourglass rather than green.

"HOT BUTTERED BISCUITS!", Alex looked at his hands, not out of fear but out of sheer awe in this new form, it felt so much different yet the same. "I'm on fire and I'm okay... Check me out, I'm a total hottie!", he smirked as he closed his hand and clenched his fist, fire radiated from this fist as he grinned.

The new lifeform turned and blasted it at a tree, completely incinerating the tree. "Now that's pretty sweet.", he said as he created a fireball in his hand. "I can get used to this.", he tossed the fire ball back and forth before getting into a stance a baseball pitcher would do before throwing the fireball.

Though Alex didn't realize, he was just still too amazed to care about his surroundings. He was still busy and way to captivated by his recent transformation to care about the rapidly starting fire. Though, he snapped out of his daze when he smelt a heavy amount of smoke. His eyes widened in shock before he went and started stomping onto the ground, but every time the fire disappeared, it would always come back stronger.

Alex growled in frustration 'Oh Imma get the ass beating of a lifetime after this.", Alex thought in panic and frustration.


Ben and Gwen were just doing their own thing as Max and Oscar caught up around the campfire. Suddenly Oscar shot up, looking towards the black smoke coming not so far away. "Forest fire."

"Probably some darn fool camper out there messing around with what he shouldn't.", Max said with a sigh.

"And for once it's not Ben.", Gwen stated bluntly.

"Yeah, but my grandson isn't back yet. Let's get going.", Oscar said with a very Drill Sargent like attitude, he quickly ran to his truck as Max got out two fire extinguishers, tossing one at Gwen while Oscar handed one to Ben. The three ran off into the forest.

"Ugh, this is getting me nowhere!", The magma-based lifeform kept stomping on the fire, which kept coming back. "Hey-!", he he turned as he was shot with fire suppressant. He quickly turned to Gwen, who looked so much smaller than him now. She screamed in terror. "Okay, I know I'm a guy made of magma but-!"

His words were suddenly met with a strong thwack to his temple, sending him stumbling back. He was about to say something before his head flame was extinguished by the suppressant in which it quickly reignited. "If I were you, I'd stay down."

The creature cocked an eyebrow before creating a small flame on her shoe, Gwen quickly jumped back as the magma based lifeform laughed. She put it out and scowled. "I warned you.", Gwen said a she looked just behind him, he was quickly smacked across the back of the head.

He quickly spun around and grabbed the fire extinguisher from Ben and crushed it in his hand with very little effort. "

"Hey! If I were you I'd back away if you knew what's good for you,", Gwen said as she aimed the hose with Ben running around and joining her.

"Don't event think about it, pipsqueak.", the alien said with a smile carving itself into his face.

It took a second to recognize the tone and how he phrased it, but it clicked. "ALEX?!", the two ten year olds exclaimed loudly.

"In the flesh... or coal, or flames. Eh, I'll figure it out later.", Alex says as he pinched his skin, pulling it up before it snapped back down.

"Holy hell.", Oscar said as he instinctively swung at Alex, who quickly dodged and leapt into the air.

"Easy gramps! It's me!", Alex says landing behind him.

"It's true!", Ben exclaims as Oscar turned to the taller creature, examining him up and down before recognizing the badge on his chest.

"Gwen! Are you alrigh- what in the blazes?!", Max stopped in his tracks, looking both amazed and sort of terrified.

"Relax, it's Alex.", Oscar said as he knew Max was the type to attack first and ask questions after. "I'm sure he'll tell you guys how this happened, for now, we have a forest fire."

Ben chimed in. "What do we do?"

Oscar and Max looked at each other, before both looking at Alex. "If you made the fire in the first place, then you can get rid of it.", Max asked as a smile curved on the mask like face of the creature.

He cocked his head in confusion. "Originally a backfire would work, it would snuff the original out while also getting rid of the second one. But if you can project it, you can pull it back in in a similar way.", Oscar says as the creature nodded. "Can you do that?"

"I can try... give me some room.", he gestured them to start going, in which they took off. With Oscar picking up Ben and Gwen and sprinting off, Max close behind. "Projecting it is like pushing air out, so that means absorbing it is like pulling it in.",

The raised his arms and concentrated, the fire began funneling towards him at a slow pace. Just as the fire got close, it suddenly started spinning into a cyclone-like shape and was funneling straight into his bright yellow hands.

His hands started to get shaky as time went on and the fire that was right in front of his face started to become erratic. Alex slowly fell onto one knee, but he kept his hands and kept facing forward. The fire had been completely absorbed into him. "Well... that did it."

After a few minutes of waiting they decided to head back to the original campsite and Alex would explain what happened there.

They sat around the campfire in silence, Alex, who had re-found his bearings while still in his new form, began explaining.

"Okay, I'm like, five minutes into my walk in the forest and nothing was happening, I wanted something exciting to happen. And I got what I wished." Alex started as he peered down at the badge embedded into his chest. Oscar, Ben, Gwen and Max nodded in understanding, it made sense… so far.

"All of a sudden, a meteor came flying out of the sky. I had been lucky enough to see it in the corner of my eye and had enough time to properly doge. I got curious and decided to investigate the crash site and boy was I amazed at what I saw. Inside the crater was metal sphere looking thing. So, I went down and decided to check it out. I was that far in, I had mars well finish what I started. Once I got close enough it opened." They all clearly looked surprised, but Alex kept going. "There was a watch in it. Now, I wanted to take it and see if it was something interesting… well, it decided it for me.", he said as he tapped it again, ever so lightly..

"I got curious once again and started screwing with it. And I accidentally transformed into... well this. I was so shocked that I didn't realize that I had started a fire… I was too stunned at it. It was like seeing the most beautiful thing in the world and then feeling it. And the forest fire happened, you could tell what happened from there." Alex explained to them, who both had shock and awed looks.

"So, a watch just jumped up and clamped onto your wrist? Forgive me but that's hard to believe.", Max said as Oscar nodded slightly.

"Think he's gonna stay a monster forever?", Gwen asked as Ben tossed him a marshmallow, which turned into the perfect temperature as he tossed it into his mouth.

"He's not a monster, if what he's saying is true then he might be an alien.", Oscar said as Ben and Gwen agreed with that logic.

"Yeah I'm not sure mom and dad would he too happy to find their son turned into a six foot tall alien made of magma.", Alex said as Oscar... cringed? For what reason, questions were put aside as Ben looked up at him and poked him with a stick.

"Well you look awesome to say the least.", Ben said as he picked up a stick and gently poked him with it. "But hey, we'll figure it out... probably."

Just then they all heard a faint beeping, Alex quickly shot up as the white hourglass started glowing a bright, crimson red.

BEWW BEWW BEWW BEWW!

Suddenly, he exploded into a bright flash of light after the beeping, so bright they had to cover their eyes. Once it died down, they looked up to see Alex in his normal form again. "Huh, neat.", Alex said looking at the watch, it's once glowing green was now red. "Help me pull this thing off."

Ben nodded as he tugged on his left arm, Alex pulling back. "Better not fool with it anymore until we figure out what it is.", Oscar said as Ben suddenly let go, Alex falling backwards before getting back up. "You three stay here, me and Max will check out the crash site.", Oscar said as Max tossed him a flashlight, the two went off.


A soft beeping had ceased, a short robot that was orange and black in color approached a large chair in a scorched room. "Master, the Omnitrix's signal has been lost. But we have managed to pinpoint its general location."

"Retrieve it immediately.", said an ancient voice, it was filled with nothing but cold hearted indifference and malice. "And don't you dare fail me.", the voice became stern, so stern the robotic servant stepped back.

"Yes, my liege. I shall dispatch a drone.", said a large white creature with the lower body of a snake and black armor as it began typing away at its arm.

Shortly after however within the woods, a large, red and orange object around 40 feet tall landed near the crash site. It suddenly popped out into a vaguely humanoid shape with three insectoid legs. It's scanners did their job, looking about before locking onto the containment pod that once held the watch.

The scanners quickly listed it as empty, something had already beat it to the device. It did a full scan of the entire area, it appeared to not be in use. Noticing this, it shot out the discs on its shoulders which flew through the trees.


"No don't use a screwdriver, the hell's wrong with you?", Alex said as he and Ben were examining the device to see how it works. The dark red had returned into a vibrant green three minutes after Oscar and Max left.

"Caught ya!", both of them jumped as Gwen popped up out of nowhere, laughing at their reaction as the two rolled their eyes before resuming their inspections. "Didn't your grandpa tell you not to mess with that thing?"

"And? You can't be at least curious.", Alex said with a smile.

"Yeah, c'mon there's gotta be more to this thing.", Ben said as Gwen crossed her arms... before smiling. "That's the spirit!"

The two old men meanwhile had ventured back to the original crash site only to see it smoking, Max picked up one of the left over shards of the destroyed containment pod that had flown out of the crater. "I don't like this, not one bit.", Oscar said as Max got up.

"Do you think it's...", Max looked up with fear stricken in his eyes.

"I hope not. Remember how much trouble we had with him last time?", Oscar sighed. "Let's hope it's his daughter or something.", he says as he looked at the ground seeing two imprints as if something dug it's way in. "Let's head back."

Back with those at the camp ground, they had surrounded the camp fire and talked about it. "Look, if I can figure this thing out, maybe I can help people.", Alex said as he kept turning the dial. He didn't understand it himself but he just... really wanted to help others.

"What did it feel like being all alien?", Gwen asked, interested in that experience, Ben just as interested.

"I felt like myself mostly, but it also felt weird I guess? It's like I was in a super realistic dream, watching someone else do things I would do but not being able to wake up...", Alex says as he tried his best to explain the feeling before smiling. "It was pretty interesting for sure."

Ben looked at Gwen, who cocked an eyebrow. "What? It sounds impossible.", Gwen looked at Ben annoyed.

"It's a friggin watch from outer space that turns him into an alien. How are you gonna put logic into that?"

Alex suddenly got an idea, pressing the front button again the same robotic beep rang out. The core popped up as it repeated the same process as before "Hey I figured it out, should I try again?"

"Yeah!", Ben shot up excited to see what else he can do.

"I wouldn't."

"No duh.", Ben and Alex said, with the latter scrolling through what aliens it had in there before stopping and slamming down on the core lightly. Exploding in that same brilliant green flash of light.

Once the light died down, Ben and Gwen took in the new alien which was drastically different then the magma lifeform from earlier.

In terms of appearance, he was a short alien with the general appearance of a monkey. The difference was that he had dark blue skin that was lawyered with cyan blue fur, he has two pairs of three fingered arms along with a face that appeared very chimp-like with six eyes, along that he had two identical tails. The badge was on his chest and was attached to two white sashes that wrapped around and connected to his back.

"Hah, nice.", Ben said walking over, and giving the monkey-alien a hi-five. "Ooooh, we should give your aliens some like hero names or something."

"My thoughts exactly!"

"Lame.", Gwen said as they didn't even give any ideas. "What can this one do anyways."

"How does Spider-Ape sound?", Alex asked Ben as he gave a so-so hand gesture. They completely ignored her much to the young girls dismay.

"Mr. Monkey? Nah that's even more lame.", Ben says as he snaps his fingers. "Spidermonkey!"

"Sounds pretty obvious in hindsight don't you think?", Alex says as he gestured to his alien body. "I was thinking Creepy Climber, but Spidermonkey would work!", he lets out a few chirps before using one of his tails to swing away into the woods.

"Are you gonna stop him?!", Gwen yelled, smacking Ben on the back of the head.

"Why would I?"


Spidermonkey swung through the trees, hopping off and using incredible acrobatic maneuvers that he wouldn't be capable of in human form. This just felt incredible all together, having such a wirey body shape with incredible strength and agility just felt amazing. His senses were completely off the charts in this form, he could smell, see and hear things beyond what normal people could.

That's when he felt a tingling sensation from the hairs that covered his entire body, he leapt out the way as he dodged a bright red blast from a drone. "Woah!" He leapt from tree to tree, dodging these blasts and letting out a screech before dodging it again. The drone sped through the cloud of smoke, having lost track of of him before floating about.

A monkey screech was heard again as Spidermonkey landed on the drone, ripping away its blaster as it sped off with him on it. "Peek-a-boo!"," he jammed his fingers under and tore its head off before leaping up and swinging away onto a tree as it exploded.

The tingling sensation returned as he leapt away, a large grin formed on its face. Not out of excitement, but out of pure annoyance, using his incredible agility he bounced around the trees faster than what the drone could keep up with

The drone turned, it's sensors being blocked out by a thick glob of webbing. With this blinding the drone, the monkey-like alien leapt up and tore it into shreds with ease. Landing on all six, he let out a victorious screech. "Oh yeah!", he exclaimed, he leapt down as he exploded in a red flash. Alex looked at device, having timed out apparently.

"I think I'll take my leave from here.", Alex started sprinting away and back to the campsite.


"I don't know why I fuckin said not to do anything when you'd do the exact opposite.", Oscar said leaning on the counter in the Rust Bucket after hearing Alex's experience. "I swear you're so much like your mother."

"We figured you'd get popular with that thing, that's exactly why you shouldn't have used it until we figured it out.", Max said crossing his arms.

"On the bright side he figured out how it works.", Ben said resting his arm on Alex's head, sort of like an arm rest.

"Yeah, just press the front button and scroll through until you find an alien you wanna be. Then that's that, you turn into a few cool ass alien dudes...", Alex paused for a second. "Though I'm not sure how to stay as one for more than like fifteen minutes."

Oscar smiled. "Well, with a device that powerful stuck to your wrist, then we better start teaching you how to use it. Fast.", Alex and Ben perked up and fist bumped each other.

Just then, they heard a transmission through the Rust Bucket and sounded like the person was panicking.

[O-Okay, who ever is listening to this... you may not believe me... but were being attacked by-by some sort of giant robot. It's destroying e-everything. And... oh-oh GOD NO!] He shouted at the end and blood curling scream filled the end of the transmission. After that, the entire line fell.

"That sounds like the same thing that attacked me in the forest, so they must be looking for this thing.", Alex said tapping the watch on his wrist.

"Well?"

Alex simply smirked. "Let's go, I'll thrash that overgrown washing machine."


"Wow that's one big robot..." Gwen whispered as she watched a forty-foot tall orange robot with four large legs and two power arms that had a laser underneath the 'palm'.

"So, which alien will it be.", Gwen asked Alex as he watched the carnage with an emotionless expression, but held sorrow clear in his eyes, something that Oscar caught.

"I don't know." Causing hers and Ben's to face vault. "Maybe a new alien.", Alex stated as he activated the watch and the dial popped up and forced it down immediately, causing a flash of green to erupt.

The light died down a few seconds later, Ben, Gwen, Oscar and Max both could clearly see a humanoid creature. His skin, a brilliant red. His face, divided in the middle by a single black stripe with a black ponytail, had four amber eyes, with the main set of eyes set above the smaller, lesser eyes. He had a muscular physique that out the most dedicated bodybuilders to shame. He had four arms, had become the size of his human form's torso, and bulged with raw power! His secondary arms, sprouting from his sides, shared the same, inhuman musculature, and all of his four-fingered hands were covered in fingerless black gloves. His feet were exposed, large narrow ovals with two toe protrusions instead of his human five. He wore a form fitting black and white sleeveless jumpsuit, the badge lodged onto his chest.

"Awesome! What can he do?", Ben looked up and down with excitement.

"Well, with my bulging muscles and the extra arms, anyone with a brain would bet that he was a muscle bounded badass.", the four armed alien confidently says as he flexed his arms, he couldn't help himself but bask in the sheer power he felt, it was incomparable to the other two aliens. "You guys get everyone to safety, the gear heads mine.", the alien charged in, his foot steps creating a loud thud. The quartet nodded and ran to help the others

Just as the robot was going to destroy another building, as it outstretched it's arm, but before it could blast anything, it was thrown to the ground by the red menace. "Hey there.", the giant robot's scanners scanned his body, the badge on his chest was the most prominent in its scans. So in response, it blasted him with a red laser, sending him flying back and into a jeep that was destroyed by a laser blast.

The muscular alien got up, he was expecting a train of pain to hit him but it just... never came. The alien felt no pain, the only thing he had were dark marks on his chest that he simply brushed off. "Woah.", he grinned wildly as he leapt into the air using his powerful leg muscles.

The muscular alien was caught again and thrown into a car, which Ben and Gwen helped the driver get out of. "Heads up!", the red alien picked up the jeep and effortlessly threw it at the robot. Who just batted it away... before being hit with a tree.

"Move! Let's go!", Gwen shoved her cousin to start moving before the drone set its sights on them.

The alien was picked up, the robot attempted to rip his arm off but in retaliation, he used his lower pair to rip off the drones arm. The drone didn't respond, only blasting him away into a destroyed building.

Max looked at Oscar, who shook his head and gestured Max to watch him. The muscular alien got up and into a wide stance, planting his feet into the ground as the drone blasted him again. The red creature simply took the blast head on, barely flinching but with a surprising burst of speed, he charged through and knocked its upper portion off with a double left hook... well, not off.

He had completely obliterated its upper body, causing the lower body to stop moving and fall to the ground. Oscar just smiled at his grandson. Before he could get excited for his first win, he looked at the others, with his companions gesturing him to go before he timed out. "Welp, my work here is done." He leapt off, continuing to do so until he was out of sight.


Alex packed up the camping supplies he brought, putting it into the back of Oscar's truck. "Alex, I have something to tell you.", his grandson just looked at him. "This is something I hoped to never had tell you in the first place... turns out God has different ideas."

"Oh?"

"You know how I was in the army then just became a Plumber? Well that's true, I just never said I was normal, this one was a much more serious and dangerous job. The Plumbers is just a code name for the Interplanetary Security Coalition. We did the dirty stuff and we did what was right. At least... most of the time.", he continued with a solemn voice. "Yeah, I got to see the Universe but it isn't as you'd think, the wars I've been in made World War 2 a walk in the park, any discrimination here is basically just shit in comparison to the planets beyond this one.", Alex listened intently. "Your mother knows, yes, we hoped that you would never find out. But like I said, some cosmic being had a different idea."

"So, you're an alien cop.", Alex said with a nod. "Hey, don't worry, if you can teach-

"No.", Oscar said sternly before he smiled. "Me and Max talked a bit about this, he agreed to let you come with him on their trip across the US. I know I may seem like an asshole for not teaching you myself, but it's best for you to travel around, gain allies and your own enemies, experience a life you never knew existed besides, with the Omnitrix on Earth I have to jumpstart the operations on here again. You're young, and you have a lot of potential.",

"So I'm guessin' Max is a Plumber too? Alright. Wait... did you two know what this was the moment you saw it?", Alex said gesturing to the watch.

"Max heard it through rumors due to his ranking at the time, I heard some of them along with the facts. It's called the Omnitrix.", Oscar said as he began smoking a cigarette. "Or at least it's what I've heard from an old friend."

"Alright, I don't get why you're not teaching me. I mean it'll be better to learn from someone like you.", Alex expressed as Oscar smiled.

"The type of people villains and criminals alike are afraid of isn't the brave or heroic type, it's the ones that are the ones who make shit up on the spot. You can never tell what a person like that will do next.", Oscar says as Alex smirked.

"I'll be sure to do you proud.", Alex says with a thumbs up.
