Chapter 4: A New World

Unknown place

Donald, Goofy and Pluto were walking in what looked like a city, when Goofy looked up at the sky attracting Donald's attention with a furious look that was calmed when Goofy pointed to a star in the sky saying:

Goofy: Look, a star is going out!

The star went out.

Donald: Come on, let's hurry up.

The three started walking again and Donald said:

Donald: Where will that key be?

Goofy: Hey, maybe we should go find Leon.

Arriving at two streets Pluto, continuing to smell, went to the left.

Goofy: Ah, Donald. According to me…

Donald: Oh, what do you know, tall boy?

Pippo: And what do I know? Um… come on, Pluto! (As he goes right)

Pluto, however, not having heard him continued walking until he reached a dead end where he found a boy and a crystal being sitting unconscious, Pluto slowly approached the crystal being who woke him up with a couple of licks.

Ben (Diamondhead): What a headache.

Then he got up completely disoriented.

Ben (Diamondhead): What is this place, it doesn't seem to be the island, what is going on?

Then he noticed the dog hiding behind the wooden crates.

Ben (Diamondhead): A dog? What's a dog doing here? Maybe he can help me.

Then he walked over.

Ben (Diamondhead): Don't worry, I don't want to do anything to you, I just need you to take me to someone who can help me understand where I am.

But he didn't want to get close.

Ben (Diamondhead): What is it? Don't tell me you've never seen a person? Or do I have something on my face?

As he did so, Ben was surprised to see that he was still transformed into Diamondhead and understood why the puppy was afraid.

Ben (Diamondhead): Sorry! Now I understand why you are afraid, give me a second ... Ok?

Diamondhead got behind three boxes and pressing the omnitrix crest on his belt returned to human form, then exited hoping that the dog was no longer scared seeing that he was a normal boy like everyone else.

Ben: Is it better now? Please can you take me to someone who can help me.

In response the dog jumped on them, licking his whole face as a sign of having accepted, then when he finished he helped Ben to get up and then brought him in front of Sora unconscious, making him worry.

Ben: Oh .. my goodness! Sora..Sora..Sora (shaking him)

He received no response, Ben's fear began to increase, however when Pluto gave them a couple of licks making Sora open his eyes slightly so that Ben calm down slightly, though:

Sora: What kind of a dream ...

Ben watching him fall asleep said to the dog:

Ben: Can you make it harder please?

The dog struck Sora's chest with both paws, causing him to wake up with a huge blow to the wall.

Sora: It's not a dream!

Ben: If he were now Riku would surely have shared the fruit with Kairi. Good morning sleeper.

Sora: Ben?

He stood up and then looked around.

Sora: Where are we?

Ben: I don't know, I woke up a little while ago like you, unconscious, but this dog helped me wake up like he did with you.

Sora: Oh, damn ...

Ben: You can say it loud!

Then Sora turned to the dog

Sora: Do you know where we are?

The dog raised his right ear as a sign to follow him that way.

Sora: Hey ..

Ben: Maybe he's showing us the way, let's follow him!

The two began to follow him, leaving the alley noticing that they were in a square with some people.

Sora: It's all so weird …

Ben: What?

Sora: We are in another world!

Ben: Thanks Captain of course! However I propose to ask the inhabitants a few questions to understand where we are.

Sora: Okay, obvious hub

Ben: I was kidding when I said that (jaw on the ground)

The first thing they did was to open the door of a shop with the accessories shop written on it, when they entered they analyzed the place seeing various objects arranged on display cases, shelves and behind shop windows, there were also sofas and stools along with a large fireplace while on the other side there was a very long counter where on the right there was a case containing a luminous white crystal, while behind on the left there was a gentleman with blond hair, a pair of mechanic's glasses on his forehead, eyes blue, a toothpick in the mouth, a few beard hairs on the chin, a white short-sleeved T-shirt, a necklace with a wooden pendant on the neck, a large orange belt at the waist holding blue trousers. Hearing the door close, he turned to the two customers saying:

?: Hi, how can I…. Ah, they are just a kid and a baby.

Hearing what Sora and Ben had said they approached him angrily saying:

Sora: I'm not a baby! My name is Sora!

Ben: And I'm not a kid, my name is Ben!

?: All right, calm down. So … why those sad faces? Are you lost … or …

Ben: I would say the second more.

Sora: No… Well, maybe. Where are we here?

?: Huh? (Surprised)

A few minutes later …

Sora: The Traverse Town …

Ben: Actually, it gave me a bit of a homely feel to this place. I wonder how things are going out there, I don't know in real life how long it has been since I ended up in the game, I just hope they can manage despite my absence. (In Ben's mind).

Sora: So, Grandpa, is this really another world?

?: Don't call me grandpa! My name is Cid! Anyway … I don't know exactly what you are talking about, but this is not your island.

Sora turned to Ben.

Sora: Hmm… Maybe we should start looking for Riku and Kairi.

Ben: Great idea, maybe they too are somewhere waiting for us.

Cid: Well, good luck with whatever you have to do. If you get in trouble, please come to me. I'll take care of you.

Ben: Thanks, Cid.

When Sora and Ben decided to leave the shop, Cid noticed a strange bracelet on Ben's wrist with shape and colors that he had never seen before and strangely it gave them the impression of something technological, and in that moment he wanted to confirm his theory, therefore:

Cid: Hey .. you kid!

Ben: I told you my name is Ben (Furious)

Cid: It doesn't matter, can you come here to the balcony for a moment?

Ben: Why?

Cid: Just come on.

Well confused as to why Cid had called him he did as asked, and when he arrived in front of the balcony he only understood why when he asked him:

Cid: Can you show me your pulse?

Ben: Sure!

Ben showed his right wrist to Cid and then got an angry face.

Cid: I mean the left wrist.

Ben: Why?

Cid: Just do it.

Ben: OK …

Ben raised Cid's left wrist showing him the omnitrix hoping that he falls into the story of the bracelet as Wakka did when he asked.

Cid: I have to say that kid… I've never seen such a thing in my life.

Ben: Many tell me!

Cid: Can I take it for a moment to see it more closely?

Ben: What? No!

Cid looked at Ben surprised by the response he received.

Ben: In the sense that I can't, because it has an important meaning to me and besides, I couldn't take it off even if I wanted to.

Cid: Ok …? Too bad I would have liked to have been able to see it very much, I am very curious about the shape and the colors it has, above all it seems to be made with materials that I do not know.

Ben: Already good story, however sorry for the attitude it was not my intention to scream in the face

Cid: Okay, but don't ever do it again ok?

Ben: OK. Come on Sora let's start our search.

Sora: Ok!

When Sora and Ben left the shop Cid said to himself:

Cid: That kid is hiding something he doesn't want to reveal to anyone, maybe that bracelet he had on his wrist has something to do with it.

The two while walking around the entire square obtained information about the city including the fact that it was divided into three districts, when they finished talking to the people in this district they decided to go to the second to see if they would have more luck. When they reached him at the entrance in front of them a man fell to the ground with a frightened air that was covered by a blinding light coming from his chest that released a sparkling heart-shaped object into the air that went in the direction of a small black hole , when the heart reached the hole the owner began to disappear like a ghost while from the hole a black creature with yellow eyes was born, slightly taller than the others, with a skull on his head and a symbol on his chest, then with a jump and a somersault forward disappeared in a cloud of smoke. Then suddenly Sora and Ben were surrounded by the creatures that attacked them on the island.

Sora: They are the creatures that were on the island!

Ben: Yeah, but what do they want from us?

The creatures began to attack them but Sora summoned the Keyblade to defend and counterattack them, while Ben acted as decoy to be chased and then let Sora do it, when they eliminated them:

Ben: I don't like the situation, better if we go back to Cid maybe he can tell us something about these creatures,

Sora: Okay.

When they both decided to go back to Cid's shop, they took a door to another street that was under a staircase, after passing through the door from above the staircase they came out of a shop Goofy and Donald screaming:

Donald: Leeeon! Mr. Leon?

Goofy: Where are you?

Too bad that road did not lead anywhere, feeling that he had made a huge fool as the creatures surrounded them again, they went out from there and took the road to the engine room and when they entered the hotel they came out Donald and Goofy saying :

Donald: Hmph. Where will it be?

Pippo: Leeeooon!

When they both arrived at the store to catch their breath as he had fought every creature in their path through the streets of the various districts, Cid asked him:

Cid: Haven't you found them yet?

Ben: No!

Sora: No!

Cid: Don't despair. Take another look around the Town.

After recovering, both followed Cid's advice and left the shop to hear a voice speak to him on their left.

?: They swoop down on you out of nowhere ...

Ben: What?

Sora: Who are you !?

?: And they won't stop attacking you ...

The voice came from a long brown haired boy, wearing black gloves and black boots with a silver zipper, a silver necklace with a silver lion head, a white T-shirt with a black short-sleeved jacket over it, decorated with red angel wings on the back and a red lion head with a red cross underneath on each sleeve. he also wears three brown belts on his left forearm and three other brown belts on his right thigh, plus his black pants have a vertical zipper on each leg. In his hips he wears two brown and two black belts, has blue eyes and a diagonal scar on his face that passes through his nose.

?: How long will you hold the Keyblade.

Then he looked at Ben.

?: The same is true for you, as long as you are close to the kid they will attack you all the time.

Then he turns back to Sora.

?: But why ... Why did he choose a kid like you?

Sora: Hey, what do you mean !?

?: It does not matter. Now let's see that Keyblade.

Sora: What? You will never have it!

Ben gets in between Sora and the boy.

Ben: If you want one, why not get it yourself without taking it from the rightful owners?

?: What can someone like you know about these things?

Ben: That's true I don't know anything about it but that doesn't allow you to take it from him.

The boy takes out a cross between a giant sword and a pistol and puts it on his right shoulder saying:

?: Okay, let's do it your way.

The boy fired a ball from his weapon which hit Ben making him slide down the steps to his right with causing a loss of consciousness.

Sora: Ben!

?: Pathetic, and I was also starting to think that he would do something but instead he's just a weakling.

Sora became furious towards the boy for what he had done to his friend, and with a slip he reached him and gave them a couple of hits with the Keyblade, but the boy was very skilled and managed to dodge almost all of them, then with a great jumped came to the square of the district where there was no longer anyone to shoot another direct shot at Sora but with a jump and hitting the ball with the Keyblade sending it back to the sender making him fall in a state of confusion continuing to attack again. Meanwhile, Ben recovered from the first attack launched by the mysterious boy by saying:

Ben: Damn, why do I always have to get into things that I don't understand a tube about?

Then he heard the noises of the weapons of the two rivals colliding to see that Sora at a slight disadvantage compared to the opponent, realizing that he had to intervene immediately, he peered in search of a place where he could transform and with luck on his side, he found himself near a bush that was near the staircase. Hiding inside by activating the omnitrix by scrolling the playlist saying:

Ben: I need something that is not too conspicuous and that I can beat without worrying about the ranged attack, and you give me ..

Shortly before pressing on the core, he watched the attacker kneel in front of Sora, surely exhausted from the fight he had sustained upon hearing Sora say:

Sora: Now… you… you… ooh

He did not finish the sentence because he lies down on the ground exhausted from fatigue falling asleep, then seeing the attacker get up, Ben slams the core transforming himself and reached the boy saying behind him:

Ben (?): You better stay away from him if you don't want to suffer the consequences.

The attacker turned on hearing the voice but did not see anyone, thinking that it was the blows received, he ignored it and returned his gaze to Sora.

Ben (?): I said stay away from him.

Hearing the higher-pitched voice again he turned again to figure out where it was coming from but there was no one… then when he heard it again.

Ben (?): Look, I'm down here.

The boy looks down to see a small white-skinned child, in a black and green suit, with what looked like buttons on his waistband and arms, with green eyes and marks from them that then went to his head, where the top was completely black with 3 fins on either side starting from the eyes and the last on top, with the omnitrix symbol on the frote.

?: What is it kid? Can't you see I'm busy, if you're lost, it's better to ask someone else to help you.

Ben (?): I see it… and I have a commitment to make.

?: And would that be?

Ben (?): Kick your ass for what you did to that poor boy.

?: Don't fool me, go away if you don't want me to be mean.

Then he turned back to Sora.

Ben: (?): Really?

Ben throws dirt at the boy's hair making him have his attention.

?: I warn you, if you do it again I will be forced to teach you a lesson and send you home crying.

Ben (?): Ah .. yeah … (she throws some more dirt in his face)

?: Ok! Now you made me mad, tell me what is your name?

Ben (?): You can call me Ditto.

Alien Bio …

Name: Ditto

Breed: Splixson

Description: Ditto is a Splixson alien from the planet Hathor. Hathor is an Earth-like planet, but with twelve continents. He is a small humanoid alien with the ability to clone himself without limits. Each clone acts independently, whether Ben wants it or not, and each clone is indistinguishable from the others. Even if the clones are autonomous, the pain felt by one of them also passes on to the others, while the death of one would end up being the death of all, as demonstrated by the Sting-like mutants of Dr Animus, endowed with the power of Ditto. Cloned Ditto's can also merge back into a single entity if they so wish. When the Omnitrix is unloaded, the clones of Ditto's are forced to recombine into a single entity before the transformation stops. If one or more clones are isolated from the others when the Omnitrix runs out, however, the timer will reset and Ben will not return to his human form until they are reunited. This seems to happen only when a clone cannot physically rejoin the others; in the open air the clones will fly towards each other even for great distances to facilitate reunion. Implicit in this is that if the Omnitrix's timer resets the next transformation will end much earlier than usual due to the energy expenditure caused by staying active for multiple transformations. While Ditto's ability to clone is unlimited, each clone is no faster or stronger than its size suggests, requiring distractions and tricks to get the better of your opponent. Furthermore, the weakness shared by each single Ditto somehow denies the possibility of making a large number of clones.

?: Are you joking?

Ben (Ditto): In your opinion? Would I joke with my name?

?: Okay… if that's your name then get ready to take a lesson. (Placing the weapon on the ground)

Ben (Ditto): I couldn't ask for better!

The boy approached the little alien to take him and immobilize him so as to be able to do them as little harm as possible, however Ditto threw himself in the boy's face, punching him in the face, making him back off and stunning him.

?: Little baby! I wanted to take it easy on you but apparently you want to do it your way .. (Picking up the weapon)

Ben (Ditto): You're right. But it's a shame for you that the owner of the Keyblade is no longer where he should be.

?: What did you say?

The boy turns behind him to find that the owner of the key was no longer there and then turns back to the little alien to see that he had a smug look on his face.

?: What have you done? Where is the kid?

Ben (Ditto): Me? I don't know … Why don't you ask those two over there. (Pointing to the steps next to the accessories shop)

The boy looking where indicated by the little alien was surprised to see two identical copies of the same child that he had in front of the key holder sides as they yelled at him:

Ben (Ditto # 2): You have to be more careful behind your back because even the smallest of thieves can steal all your money without realizing it.

Ben (Ditto # 3): (Raspberry)

Then the boy looked again at the one in front of him.

?: Do you think this is a game?

Ben (Ditto): It depends on how you look at it.

?: Okay, now… get ready.

Ben (Ditto): Be careful even if it doesn't seem like I'm a tough nut to crack.

The attacker sprinted back to shoot a fireball but Ben since he had witnessed the previous fight, he knew how to deal with him, dodged the ball to the right and then dodged the boy's aerial assault as well, going under him to jump them on the head and begin to fix it.

?: Besides being weak you are also annoying, how do you plan to beat me? (Throwing it near a house)

Ben (Ditto): You're right about that but I have something you lack.

?: And would that be?

Ben (Ditto): This!

From behind Ditto came the two clones who had secured Sora ready to fight.

?: That's all? You just called your two brothers to whom I would have given the same speech that I am giving to you.

Ben (Ditto # 2): Two? Do you really think it would have been just the two of us? (Sarcastic)

Ben (Ditto # 3): Next let's show him why we are called Ditto.Benn (Ditto # 1-2): Ok!

All three jumped very high and then attacked the boy at the same time so as not to give them a moment of respite but knowing that all three would have made the same attack, he got in position ready to receive the blow.

?: Come on I'll wait for you!

But when the three Ditto's arrived on the boy's head they were covered with a slight green glow from which other clones of the three who was flying came out, not being prepared for what had just happened, the mysterious boy was overwhelmed by the clones of the little alien who they covered the body and then began to beat him. But all of them were thrown and then returned from the original Ditto composing themselves saying:

Ben (Ditto): Ok! I admit Ditto it wasn't a great choice, maybe I should have used Swampfire or Bloxx.

?: I must say I was surprised by the attack you just made especially I have never seen such a spell used before, tell me who you are and why you are protecting that guy.

Ben (Ditto): I already told you my name is Ditto and I'm a hero.

?: A hero. Ok hero let's see if you can still get up after I do this to you.

But a voice coming from behind the boy stopped the fight saying:

?: Oh, you disappoint me, Leon.

The boy turned to see a girl with short black hair, wearing an iron headband on her forehead with two green laces falling behind her neck, a yellow scarf around her neck, very short yellow-brown shorts with a belt blue, a green topper with two blue buckles on the shoulders that leaves the belly uncovered, long white socks that reach up to the mid-thighs, orange shoes, sleeves separated from the dark green topper with orange fingerless gloves decorated with a band on top black near the base, plus she had brown eyes.

Leon: I went easy on him.

Ben (Ditto): It doesn't seem like it to me (Inside him)

Leon: It seems that things are worse than expected.

Ben (Ditto): What does that mean?

On hearing this question, the girl approached the little alien to look into her eyes for a few seconds and then hear this:

?: Leon!

Leon: Yes !?

?: Can we take it? (Meanwhile she hugs and cuddles him).

Ben (Ditto) and Leon: No!

?: Come on! You're too nice.

Meanwhile…. In an unknown place

Riku wakes up confused saying:

Riku: Where am I?

Then he looks around to see where he is.

Riku: Sora! Kairi! Well!

But he did not receive any response saddened, meanwhile from a slightly higher point of that same place, a figure observes Riku from a distance not being noticed.
