Chapter 6 is here! God… This was more difficult to write than you think, my idea was one but then I changed my mind, then my health made a kamikaze shot, fortunately, I am recovering, guys follow the sanitation rules ¿yes? Anyway, I don't want to extend too much but I also want to respond to the Reviews, I just want to answer 2 things.

The first, no, that was not a reference I didn't know that it happened in Hotel Transylvania, I have to see those movies again ... congratulations you pay more attention than me, now I feel a bit silly.

Second, uh yeah, my grammar is not the best and like that ... when I am re-reading the English version to correct the mistakes, I read very quickly, and my mind associates everything with the translation that I already have in mind, so I usually leave several things behind, I am solving that, little by little and with the help of my Beta reader, a great boy, very kind, he has a lot of patience with me and I appreciate him very much, this chapter I think improves my grammar a little, but I did it without my beta reader as he went on vacation for the week and I didn't want to bother him with this.

Oh and another thing, you, the one who comments in Spanish, yes, you, Hola! Yes, I already read Clawsome Travel's, I was inspired by that story, along with others, Ben 10 crossovers, although not with monster high, and a Monster High story called "the abyss also watches you" uh I think it was the name, I have to see it later.

One last thing, what do you think of the length of the chapters? Until now, i write between 9k and 10k words, i want your opinion, i should lengthen them or keep that margin?

Anyway, this here and the notes below.

Let's do this!

Ben 10 and Monster High belong to their rightful owners

Grammar issues ahead (maybe?)

"What the Fuck?"

In Upgrade's opinion, Clawdeen's reaction was the best he has received in all his years working as a superhero. The young woman's mouth was so open that at any moment she would fall to the ground, her eyes looked at him full of surprise and they looked like two plates of how open they were, the other girls had reactions quite similar, which did better the scene in front of him.

If only he had a camera, he could immortalize the scene and then make fun of them a lot.

Viktor, who observed that reaction a bit confused, looked at the alien, he seemed to be holding the urge to laugh at his reactions, apparently, his daughter and friends didn't know about the camouflage mask.

"Amazing." Frankie was the first to come out of amazement, her scientific instinct made her move towards the space teenager, she brought her hand to his face and stretched his left cheek, her fingers felt the cold touch of the liquid metal that made up his body, for a second, the section that the young woman was pulling stopped looking like human skin and returned to being black, but when she released it from his grasp it regained its camouflage. "A hologram." whisper.

Upgrade nodded and he rubbed the area that the girl had pulled, although his anatomy allowed him to stretch his body and take impossible shapes, even so, it hurt when some part was stretched, which in his opinion made no sense.

"This is incredible! You really look like a human! " Draculaura exclaimed excitedly and then approached him, looked him up and down, and gave him a thumbs up. "I like the outfit, scream 'you' in every way." he simply made a careless gesture with one hand, not that he didn't appreciate the compliment on his outfit, rather, that outfit was a bug produced by the mask, not something intentional. "Now you look like a human, we can get you to town! Go for a walk, oh, go shopping! " The girl gave a slight laugh when she saw her space friend drop his arms with resignation, clearly still not a fan of the idea of going shopping. "Oh come on, it's not that bad, you could get a new outfit."

For her part, Clawdeen walked over to him as she began to examine him.

"Well, you don't look bad at all." praised, the alien raised an eyebrow at the analytical gaze of the young woman, she began to walk around him, inspecting his body in detail, perhaps in too much detail. "It's nothing out of this world, you have a decent appearance, a bit of muscle, nothing over the top." The young werewolf stopped behind him and looked down, a humorous smile forming on her face. "And a nice butt."

That comment was enough for the alien to flinch, his face was covered in red and he gave a slightly annoyed look at the girl, who simply winked at him and laughed at his expense.

"I give him a seven on appearance."

"Did you really just assess his attractiveness?" Cleo asked as she looked at the werewolf in bewilderment, she couldn't believe she had done that. "More importantly, no one is going to ask why does he have that mask or why does he look like a human boy?" she questioned. "Let's go! It is obvious that this alien is trying to invade the earth! He must have supplanted some Normie or something like that. "

That comment earned a frown from Upgrade, he wasn't going to do that, besides, what was wrong with that appearance? It was his real appearance after all.

Her friends instead looked at each other and then looked at Upgrade, what the mummy had just said made a lot of sense, although it is most likely that she is simply being an idiot with the alien.

"That stereotype disgusts me." the alien commented in his language as he looked with an arched eyebrow at the mummy.

"You see? he just admitted it."

"I think he said something about a space duck." Clawdeen replied skeptically, he had proven to be kind enough, she didn't think he was planning an invasion. "Cleo, you have to admit that what you just said is a pretty bad stereotype, because being an alien doesn't mean he want to invade Earth."

"And since when are you an alien expert?" the mummy questioned as she and gave her friend an annoyed look.

"Since last night." she replied with a smile, which only got bigger as Cleo's frown grew. "Come on, just look at him, he doesn't seem like a bad boy."

Both directed their attention to the alien, who was listening to Draculaura give him an advice to change his outfit, he was quite patient with the girl, although it was most likely that he had disconnected his mind and was simply robotically nodding to what she was saying.

"You should add more colors, black and green go together, but you know, black goes with everything, maybe a little more blue or red, oh! Pink! definitely pink. "

Clawdeen looked back at Cleo and gave her an arrogant smile.

"Look at him, he's definitely planning an invasion." she commented sarcastically, making the mummy roll her eyes.

"She is right Cleo." Frankie added her opinion to the mix, Cleo was already resigned to making them see reason, so she just walked away in the direction of the couch and flopped into it.

"It is fortunate, she isn't our mediator." Both girls turned their attention once more to Upgrade, seeing the alien ready to jump out of a window only to flee from Draculaura and her taste for the color pink, it was entertaining for Clawdeen, but she decided to interfere. - "Hey big boy, are you going to show us your science fiction stuff or what?"

Hearing the girl, Upgrade did not hesitate to flee in the direction of the door, surprising Draculaura a bit, who stared at the place where he had been standing.

The girls decided to take a seat to wait for the alien, while Viktor remained standing, his mind reeling from what his daughter's friend had said.

The possibility that Upgrade was planning some kind of invasion was possible and it had made him somewhat nervous.

A single entity of his type could be a problem, difficult to control if they were not careful but could be subdued in certain ways, until now electricity was presented as a weakness that temporarily knocked him out, but a whole race of beings capable of merging with technology and turning mundane things into siege weapons would undoubtedly have the task of domination very easy.

"You should consider Cleo's words." Frankie's father said, managing to catch the attention of the young monsters. "We're not sure yet what he plans to do."

"I know dad, but I want to trust on him, I know he is not an ordinary monster, and he does not speak our language, but if he was bad he would have hurt us." The man looked at his daughter with a certain ... hesitation, he couldn't help but feel proud of what a good girl she was, that she was willing to help a stranger in that way, but her good heart could get her into a lot of trouble and he didn't want her to girl will experience that. "Also, I have always been told that I should not judge others by their appearance or their peculiarities, Upgrade is strange, but we too, pigeonhole him just because he is not from Earth is to do the same thing that humans do with monsters."

"She is right Mr. Stein." Draculaura stood next to her friend and looked confidently at the adult monster. "When I met him he healed my ankle, I know I'm a vampire and something like that wouldn't really affect me, but he took the time to heal me, he's a good boy."

"Now that you mention it, he also took the time to find a bandage for my nose, he also brought Frankie all the way back to the house when he was knocked unconscious." Clawdeen added. "I still don't understand how he knows where to go and what to look for."

Viktor was silent, analyzing that information, every new thing he learned from this strange space monster, contradicted other already established ones, he had war skills, and the attack force, but he was calm and serene most of the time, he worried about strangers, even when they attacked him.

His mind told him that creature was made for war, taking into account his ability to upgrade the most mundane technology to unestablished levels, but his childish attitude was far from a soldier.

Who was he? Only the alien could tell them the truth, and yet, he would take that information with care.

The minutes began to pass slowly, the teenagers scattered a bit, each killing time either in their Icoffins or in the case of Clawdeen pacing back and forth. Viktor for his part decided to review his notes, correct some things and add a few others, he would have to talk to Viveka about that.

Speaking about her, the woman returned to the room a few minutes after Upgrade left, she had heard most of the conversation and had her own questions for the alien, mainly about his enhancement abilities, it would be amazing to be able to work with some improved items would make her research much easier. Maybe if she could understand his biology, she could find a way to replicate his cells, which would bring an incredible technological leap, but of course, she had to get a sample first.

"How much longer is he going to take?" was Clawdeen's loud complaint, saying she was impatient would be an understatement, the girl paced back and forth, stopping and tapping her foot on the ground, only to repeat herself over and over again.

"He left only fifteen minutes ago, be patient." Frankie answered trying to calm her friend, but she ignored and continued the same, making the monster made of parts sigh in defeat, her attention went to Draculaura, who was focused on her ICoffin, for some reason the girl had a little worried expression, so she decided to dig into that. "Is something wrong Draculaura?"

Frankie's voice made her jump into place and she almost dropped her phone, but she managed to hold it, the little vampire looked at her with a clearly nervous smile, which made her raise an eyebrow, something was happening.

"Oh, nothing." was the girl's response, then hiding her ICoffin behind her. "Just ... I was just looking at some vegetarian recipes."

"Alright?" she was sure her friend wouldn't have gotten that nervous just because of that, but as long as she didn't let her see her phone she wouldn't find out what was going on.

Of course, none of them took into account a certain mummy with a huge ego who was also with her Icoffin at that time.

"Frankie!" The scream of the Egyptian girl caught the attention of those present, she had an alarmed expression on her face and her eyes had not left her phone. "You gotta see This!"

The young woman extended her arm, showing her the screen of her phone, Frankie arched a confused eyebrow when she recognized the website that was there, it was the site of Spectra, a ghost who was her classmate at Monster High, the young monster had the fame for posting certain information very distorted and far from the truth, every little gossip that was in Monster High, Spectra somehow found out and when she uploaded it, that little gossip became the gossip of the century, many doubted her credibility for that reason and took everything that came out of that ghost with tweezers.

"She posted about your supposed human cousin!"

That information caught Frankie by surprise, who kept her eyes glued to the ICoffin screen. While Clawdeen and Draculaura looked at each other nervously, this was going to be very bad.

"Human cousin?" Viktor questioned.

"May or may not, I said Upgrade was actually Frankie's cousin." The young werewolf received two very puzzled looks from the adult monsters. "In my defense, I got nervous and we couldn't tell the truth."

"And now Spectra uploaded it to her blog!" Cleo stressed. "Do you have any idea how many monsters see this site? even worse, how many of them despise humans? "

"Uh ... one hundred?"

"Thousands! All Monster High is here, added to the Vampire and Werewolf academies, and all the other monster schools that are nearby! "

"It's not that bad, is it?" the vampire of the group asked with some concern, receiving an annoyed look from Cleo, which made her flinch instead.

"It is, haven't you seen Jackson being treated just for being human? Anyone who is nice to him is a target for harassment, and now everyone knows that Frankie has a human cousin! " answered. "And worst of all, it says here that we are her friends too! My reputation is ruined! "

Seeing Cleo fall to her knees would have been a scene Clawdeen would have enjoyed very much, jeez, she would even go for a soda and a few snacks just to enjoy it even more, but the mummy was right about something.

Monsters that associated with humans ended up being the focus of harassment, the same thing happened with humans, and if they were teenagers, things were much worse. They were going to have to talk to Spectra about removing that post and if she refused, well, she was going to have to go a little "wild" with the ghost.

Viveka arched an eyebrow at the exaggerated way of acting of her daughter's friends, she was aware of how cruel some can be to those who support the opposite side, but was it that bad? She and her husband were in favor of peaceful coexistence, her grandfather, Viktor Frankenstein was a human, after all, her family was created by a human and while she had not had the pleasure of meeting him, she respected him.

"We have to make her delete the post!" Cleo exclaimed. "Quick, we have to call Ghoulia, she's the brainiac who knows how to erase these things."

"Yes, it's called, report post." Clawdeen pointed out, the mummy just stared at her Icoffin with an expression of utter concern, giving too much importance to a post that no one could possibly believe. "When we see Spectra we will ask her to erase that, that ghost has to learn where she can and cannot poke her nose." her gaze went to Frankie, who seemed to be thinking of something. "What's in your mind Frankie?"

"I'm thinking, this may be useful, don't you think?"

"What are you talking about?" Draculaura questioned.

"I mean, Upgrade is trapped here, his ship is now a truck, and he will live here."

"I haven't accepted anything yet." Viktor was the one who spoke, Viveka was quick to give him a light tap with her elbow. "What? I will not let a boy live under the same roof as my daughter. "

"Control your jealousy as a father and think about it Viktor, it's better to keep an eye on him, he has the ability to camouflage himself among humans, so he is less of a problem, and our family has a history of humans."

"Viveka, please don't mention Grandpa." the man asked kindly, but his wife just gave him a rather hard look. "Okay, when he comes back we'll tell him, but the detail is still there, he doesn't speak English or any other language."

"Those are details that we will deal with later." the woman turned her attention to the young monsters. "Rejoice, your friend can stay here."

"Yes!" Clawdeen and Draculaura exclaimed as they high-five.

"But, you will have to help with his education."

"That?! I never accepted this! " Cleo exclaimed angrily, then pointed to the vampire and the werewolf. "Is their friend! Not mine!"

"Give him a try Cleo." asked Frankie kindly.

"i don't! He will not be my friend, not now, not ever! "

"If you give him a chance, you might find out that he's not that bad." Draculaura insisted, but the mummy simply crossed her arms and looked away, making the little vampire sigh in defeat.

"Calm Lala, she misses it." Clawdeen comforted her.

Meanwhile, Upgrade was finishing arranging the things inside the box he had in the truck, he had been rummaging there for several minutes, looking for something else besides his anti-gravity skateboard to show the girls, in addition to terrestrial magazines and records, he had some alien stuff, possibly belonging to Rook, since he would never read something like that, the best places to take your partner on the moons of Jupiter? Seriously? He knew that he and Rayona were about to celebrate their first year together as a couple, but this was perhaps a bit of a stretch.

Either way, he closed the box and stood there, seeing those things he couldn't help but think of his home. This whole situation made him uneasy, not only because he barely remembered how it was he ended up there in the first place, but seeing Frankie interact with her parents, or with her friends, made him feel a little out of place.

His mind wandered to his reality, his parents, would they be worried? He was sure that, especially his mother, she had accepted that he was a hero, that he would always be on the front lines saving the world, but even so, he was her child, he was never going to stop worrying about his safety.

Then he thought about his friends, were they looking for him? Probably, someone has already kicked Azmuth's door to get him to bring him back, possibly Kevin and Gwen, with Kevin being the one who was going to have to buy that old Galvan a new door.

He thought for a moment of someone else, Kai, his mind had managed to release a bit of the haze about their last meeting, she had called him to discuss the whole Spanner thing, they were quite nervous with that, they liked each other, that was obvious, but they weren't ready for something like that and finding out that they were going to have a child in a few years made them uncomfortable with each other.

Knowing they were meant to be together and had a child when they were just starting to form a relationship was definitely a bomb.

What was the result of that talk? He has no idea, the memories were still clearing, but if he had to guess, they might just be friends now.

He was fine with it.

It sounded a bit insensitive, but even he was mature enough to understand that this was the best decision if they weren't sure what to do, besides, he was still working as a hero and she as an extraterrestrial archaeologist, making things work would have been very difficult.

The best thing would be not to think about it too much, right now he had to worry about other things, he had no idea how long he was going to be stuck there, or how long it would take for the watch to calibrate.

He thought of the monsters that helped him so kindly, except for Cleo, that girl ... mummy, whatever, she was very angry and possibly had a more inflated ego than him, if he could speak English, he would not hesitate to mess with her just to make her angry even more.

Anyway, he wanted to make it up to them somehow, he had nothing of value with him really, except sixty-five dollars and seven Taydens.

His mind recalculated a few seconds before receiving an epiphany, he had Taydens, one of the most valuable minerals in his universe, they would not have much use here, except to sell them, he could give them as payment, not that they were too much money either, a Tayden in his universe was enough to buy a bottle of water, although with twelve he could buy a motor, he was not entirely sure how that monetary system was managed, but the economy was not his thing, kicking butt was.

He went to the cabin and opened the cabinet, from there he took out his wallet, shook it over his right hand, dropping the pieces of space glass, seven small hexagons with an engraving similar to a T, but with an extra line in the center parallel to the top.

"I just hope I don't unbalance the economy ..." he muttered to himself as he returned his wallet to the cabinet and got out of the vehicle.

Once outside, his gaze went to the surroundings, if he had to describe that neighborhood it would be… strange? While retaining a classic look, each parcel was occupied by a building, these were anything but normal, they looked more like haunted houses, or the best Halloween decoration he has seen in a long time. The Stein home was by far the most normal in the neighborhood, being a simple two-story house, the exterior walls were painted light blue and it had brown tiles falling to two slopes, that great contrast gave him the idea that possibly this The house was hiding something, but he was sure that sniffing around would not be well received.

He walked back to the house, even without going inside he could still hear Cleo's complaints, who, to no one's surprise, was against something, possibly him staying around.

Without wanting to waste any more time, he entered the house.

The sound of the door opening caught everyone's attention, they turned towards the entrance, they saw the alien close the door behind him, the now human boy had with him a kind of flat circular black and green object. Seeing this, Clawdeen wasted no time going towards him to discover what cool alien object he had brought with him.

"This is ..." a childish gleam appeared in the Young Woman's eyes as she took the strange object, only for seconds later to disappear and give Upgrade a flat look. "A Frisbee?"

He arched an eyebrow, how the hell that look's like a Frisbee?

"We have this here too." the werewolf carelessly waved the object from side to side, which unnerved the alien, who snatched his belongings and examined it, making sure it was not damaged.

This reaction was not overlooked by anyone and the questions were not long in coming.

"Everything is alright?" Viveka approached the alien boy, who seemed to be too concentrating examining the object that he paid attention to, so she had to touch his arm to get his attention, at the touch, he put aside what he was doing and looked at her curiously. "You seem quite concerned about your belongings, is it something of value?"

Not being able to answer, since he did not have his notepad at hand, he just nodded, and boy, if that belonging was of value, the last one he had was smashed thanks to an alien hunter, he did not want to lose another too soon, all his savings were gone on that thing.

Viktor approached him and examined the strange object with his gaze, as Clawdeen said, that thing looked like a Frisbee, nothing more, although a little thicker, also the material did not seem to be plastic, but some kind of metallic alloy, and if his experience working with certain electrical components told him something, it was that this thing, whatever it was, definitely was not a Frisbee.

"And what exactly is that thing?" Draculaura asked with genuine curiosity.

"Seeing how he reacted, possibly a bomb." Cleo commented, which made everyone take a step back, even the adults.

Upgrade arched an eyebrow at that, he was not so irresponsible to carelessly bring a bomb with him.

He was definitely not that irresponsible anymore.

The best thing would be to teach them what it was before someone calls up a SWAT bomb squad.

Those present watched as the adolescent alien touched the central part of the object and it began to glow, then split in half, spreading its shape and creating what appeared to be a construction of hard light in the center.

The shape is now possessed closely resembled a Snowboarding board, of course, a few thousand times more advanced.

Clawdeen, Frankie, and Viktor's eyes shone with emotion, of course, each had their own reason for this, Draculaura looked at the object in amazement, it was quite beautiful to see and those bright green colors matched Upgrade, and she as a connoisseur, she approved of it.

For her part, Viveka observed with curiosity, her specialty was more biology than engineering, but even so, she could not help but be amazed at this technological feat.

Cleo simply arched an eyebrow before saying something.

"Yes, we have snowboards here too." her comment earned an annoyed look from the camouflaged alien, if he could speak, he would definitely be asking her to shut her mouth once.

Or he could shut up her by showing the true function of that thing.

Which he did.

He dropped the board to the ground and jumped on it just as it began to float in the air, even though possibly using one of those things indoors is one of the worst ideas anyone could have, he was very skilled and managed to control it with ease.

They all watched in perplexity as the alien boy began to skate on the air, reached the stairs, and used them as a ramp, then jump off the wall and return towards them with total mastery.

Then he got off the skateboard and with a light tap of his right foot, it lunged towards his hand, being caught easily.

No one said anything for a few seconds, everyone was trying to process what had just happened. The geniuses present were recalling every bit of information they had about terrestrial technology, trying to understand scientifically how this artifact works.

Draculaura had a wondering look on his face, his space friend was not only cool and nice, but he also had skateboard skills! She definitely going to introduce him to Clawd, she was sure they would be great friends.

Cleo just looked wide-eyed at the alien, that was the coolest thing she had ever seen in her life, and possibly in the next three lives she had, being from a rich family, too rich, luxuries and eccentric things were normal, a supercar? she had it! A vacation home on a private beach? she had it! But a damn flying skateboard? No damn it! Now that she was thinking in a more concentrated way, what else could this alien possess? She didn't even want to imagine it.

And Clawdeen? She was drooling over that cool, absurdly futuristic piece of technology.

"That was clawsome !" exclaimed the werewolf, her ears perked up and her pupils dilated, reflecting her clear emotion. "My turn! My turn!"

Upgrade arched an eyebrow, the treatment that that girl gave to her anti-gravity skateboard a few seconds ago was not the best and he was not sure if it was a good idea to lend it to her, most likely she fell and hurt herself, of course, with him supervising that would not happen, but the space they were in was not optimal, a more open place would certainly be better to practice.

Fortunately, Viveka stopped the girl's childish outburst, she put a hand on her shoulder and pushed her back.

"No skateboards inside the house, you will break something." the werewolf scratched her head and gave the woman a goofy smile, who simply shook her head at that. "The same to you." This was said while looking with some anger at the alien, who imitated Clawdeen.

"Fascinating, really fascinating!" Viktor advanced towards him or rather towards his skateboard and without asking permission he took it from his hands and began to inspect it, leaving behind a very confused Upgrade, who looked at the empty space in his hands and then at the huge monster made of parts. "What kind of technology is this? What drives it? Do you use some kind of anti-gravity motor? Anti-matter? Perhaps it creates a magnetic field that is opposite to that of the earth and for that reason it floats? "

The alien looked at him with confusion, he had no idea what he had just said, it was not like he had asked him something, but even so, those words sounded like some really strange language.

"It seems your father has found a new toy." The werewolf of the group commented with amusement and some jealousy, Frankie simply shook her head, her father had very strange and unique tricks.

"Viktor, control yourself." Viveka asked, although she was also very intrigued by the device, the woman looked in the direction of the alien, who seemed to be somewhat annoyed because his object was taken from him. "I hope you forgive him, he is almost a hundred years old and continues to behave as if he were five."

He shook his head, he wasn't really angry, a bit upset that he didn't ask his permission, but he could understand it, he was the same when he received the first one when he was ten years old.

He then decided to approach Viveka, the woman gave him a curious look when she saw him walk towards her, and then became confused when he extended his hand, his intention was clear, he was giving her something.

Curiously, the woman reached out her right hand and opened her palm, seven small objects fell from the alien's hand and gently struck his.

When she saw those little crystals, her eyes widened and her mouth almost fell to the ground.

"Vi-Vi-Viktor." The woman robotically moved her head towards her husband, who was confused when he heard how his wife's voice sounded shaky, the man saw her show him her hand.

"Oh dear Frankenstein ..." was all he could formulate when he saw those diamonds in his wife's palm, his gaze quickly went to the alien, who seemed quite calm.

"What happen?." Frankie questioned worriedly seeing her parents' expressions, her friends were also quite nervous about that, except for Cleo, who simply directed her gaze to Viveka's palm.

"Are those diamonds !?" she exclaimed in dismay and very, very astonished.

It took several minutes for the monsters to calm their mind in the presence of those small cyan-colored pieces of mineral, which were now on the small table in the room.

"So, let me see if I understand, in your home, are these things commonplace?" Viveka pointed to the crystals, Upgrade simply nodded, the alien had recovered his notepad and had been explaining to them for several minutes that he had not stolen those diamonds, but that he already had them with him.

"The Taydens are a common currency in my home, they are nothing to write home about" That answer was and at the same time it was not precise, the Taydens had many uses, from a power source for some ships, going to a common currency, there was even a damn car built entirely of Taydenite, how did that thing work? He didn't know.

"This is amazing, a world where diamonds are so common that they are used like any other coin!" Viktor exclaimed as he picked up one of the crystals and examined it closely. "Does it bother you if I keep one? I would like to study it thoroughly to see if it is composed in the same way as diamonds on Earth. "

Upgrade nodded and began to write, when he finished he handed the paper to Viveka, who took it and began to read.

"I wanted to compensate for your help, are a gift"

"A gift ... wow." the woman murmured. "This is ... too much, Upgrade, this could be worth a fortune here, are you sure?" He nodded, it's not like he can't create more.

"They can take one too"

"You're sure?" the woman asked, he nodded. "Frankie, your friend says those stones are a gift for helping him, you can take one each"

"R-Really?" she asked puzzled, her eyes were directed towards those small crystals, without a doubt that was the most expensive gift that someone had ever given her.

"I don't know about you, but I like this guy more and more!" Clawdeen exclaimed excitedly as she took one of the crystals and brought it to her face and then focused it on the ceiling light. "This thing is amazing! hmm, I could wear it on my dress. "

"I think a necklace would look good." Draculaura added as he picked one up and then looked at his space friend with a smile. "Now I will definitely buy you something nice."

The alien waved his hand, it was nothing, but if she insisted, he was dying for some fries with chili.

If only he could eat!

"You know, I think I could be her friend." Cleo tried to take one of the crystals, but Clawdeen stepped forward and took all of them, thus preventing her from getting her gift. "Hey!"

"Oh no! You made it clear, you didn't want to be her friend, you run out of diamonds. " replied the werewolf with a smile, a smile that made Cleo angry.

"Girls, don't fight, Upgrade said it was a gift." Frankie tried to be the voice of reason, but it was clear that Clawdeen was not going to allow Cleo to obtain one of those gems, so she decided to look to Upgrade for help. "Upgrade, Cleo can have one of those gems too, right?"

The alien put a hand to his chin and made a thoughtful expression, then he looked with some amusement at the mummy, who was struggling with Clawdeen, he could say no, but he wasn't that evil, so he just nodded.

"Are you seriously going to let Miss 'I have all what I want' have one of those things?" Clawdeen questioned as he kept his hand with the Taydens away from Cleo, he nodded. "Uhg, fine."

Cleo gave him an annoyed look but chose not to say anything, just picking up her own gem and admiring it.

"It is well worked, precise cuts, the engraving was made clearly as a mark to recognize it, the color is strange, I have never seen a diamond like this." evaluated the mummy, then simply smiled and put the gem in her pocket. "Your offering is accepted, space slime."

The alien raised an eyebrow at that sentence and looked in Frankie's direction for some explanation, the girl looked quite embarrassed and simply covered her face with one hand.

"She says thank you." clarified the vampire of the group.

"Saying 'thank you' is poison to her, right?" he asked, causing Clawdeen to start laughing out loud.

"You have no idea how accurate you are." replied the werewolf while being laughed at.

Viveka decided that it was a good time to inform Upgrade what they had decided to do with him, so she caught the attention of the alien, who focused on her.

"Upgrade, we have decided that it would be best if you stayed here, for security reasons, I hope you do not mind that we discussed it without you." the alien nodded, he had no problem with that really, he had no other place to go either.

"Since you're staying here, there will be some rules." Viktor spoke, his expression was serious and Upgrade was sure of one thing, he seemed to be angry with him. "First, you won't be alone in the same room with Frankie." the alien blinked confused, he was not ... "Second, you will keep a distance of three meters from Frankie." yes, he was doing that. "Third…"

"Viktor, stop exaggerating." Viveka asked as she covered her face in shame at her husband's jealousy.

"He's a teenager, I'm not going to allow ..." the man was silenced by a deadly serious look from his wife.

"It is enough Stein." the woman glared at her husband, then turned her attention to the alien. "As Viktor said, there will be some rules, and you will have to learn everything about the land if you are going to stay, sooner or later you will have to leave the house, it is better to be sure that you will not do something that can be considered bad." the alien nodded at that, although he already knew the customs of the Earth, now he was in an alternate version of it if something was different it would be best to be aware. "And you must help him." the woman looked at the young monsters.

"Wait, that means ..." Clawdeen put on a horrified expression as Viveka nodded.

"They are going to study."

A collective groan filled the hall of the Stein home, for Viveka to see Upgrade throw his head back and let out a computerized groan was the clear sign that even among the stars, teenagers were all the same.

"It would be better to start, it's almost six o'clock and you should go home by eight." The teenagers nodded in resignation, while Cleo crossed her arms in clear anger, had she canceled her date with her beloved boyfriend to spend the afternoon teaching an alien? She just hoped this would count as extra credit once she was in University.

"It is a miracle that you are not complaining." Clawdeen commented resignedly as he looked at Cleo.

"He gave me a diamond, I can teach him a thing or two as compensation." she replied nonchalantly.

"And what are you going to teach him? How can be just as self-centered as you? "

"For your information, I get A in all my subjects."

"Cheating and copying Ghoulia."

"That is not true!"

"Yes, it is!"

Upgrade, Frankie and Draculaura wisely chose to turn their attention to something else before they got into an argument that would lead nowhere.

"I have some history books, I'll go get them." the Steins' daughter said as she stood up and left.

"I will teach you about fashion, you will love it, look, we have this social network called Monstertube." the young vampire took her ICoffin and began to educate the alien, who simply looked at the screen, wondering if this Monstertube would also have kitten videos, for some reason that content was incredibly popular in his home, even among aliens. "Oh look at this video, it's of a little kitten sneezing." It seems that the answer was yes, there are.

After an afternoon trying to teach Upgrade about the world where he was now, Frankie's friends had gone to their respective homes, leaving her in charge of the alien with her parents.

Her father had borrowed Upgrade's skateboard and taken it to the laboratory below the house to try to replicate that technology, her mother on the other hand had asked him for a sample of his body to study it, although the alien was quite reluctant to this at first, he was convinced when the woman explained that it was for health reasons, they had no idea if he could carry a disease that could be dangerous, after many conditions, he ended up accepting, giving her a small part of him, but she had to give it back later.

Frankie was sure her mother was just using that as an excuse to study alien biology.

As for her, she was still next to Upgrade, teaching him everything he might need, at that moment she was talking to him about humans and she had no better idea than to use one of those magazines for human adolescents that she had.

"This is a party, it's kind of like a reunion, but they have music, people dance and make friends." the girl was showing him a picture in the magazine, Upgrade, who had removed his mask, nodded in response, although he was not paying much attention, he already knew what a party was, but he did not want to offend the girl who was I was trying my best to help him. "Maybe when you can talk, we can take you to a party, you could make more friends and ..."

His mind was disconnected at some point as Frankie continues to explain to him about the parties, he chose to re-evaluate the knowledge he had gained up to that point.

During that last day, his mind had formed a general idea about the situation of the society in which he was now, monsters and humans coexisting, if his trip through the city, the attitude that Venus girl had towards him and the behavior of that A couple of policemen told him something was that things here were not quite good, a curious parallel with his original reality.

During the afternoon they explained other things to him that only further promoted the idea that things here were very divided, everything was rough and with very few details, but they gave him enough information for him to deduce the rest.

He didn't like it at all.

This world, these people, were divided, not only between humans and monsters, the monsters themselves preferred to be divided by their species, vampires and werewolves hated each other for the most part, freshwater monsters and saltwater monsters alike, known beings as elementals they had a horrible relationship with each other.

He couldn't understand how this was possible, didn't they realize how incredible it would be for everyone to work together? The things they would accomplish?

His world, his Earth, had begun to accept inhabitants from other worlds and in just one year the leap was incredible, the trade that had helped a lot, not only economically, but also technologically, it was difficult, it was and it was difficult. It will be, of that there was no doubt, but the change was important to move forward.

Of course, not everyone was going to accept that change, but with effort and perseverance, things could work out.

This gave him an idea, he was a hero, not only that, he was considered the bridge between all the species in his home since he could literally become all of them.

As the hero that he was, he could not leave things as they were, for him, solving these types of conflicts were a common thing, although he was not sure how both parties acted, he was going to have to investigate more, or if there were extremist groups that could endanger civilians, but if that world needed a hero, he would be that hero.

Of course, first, he had to formulate a plan correctly, he needed all information possible, which would be provided by the Steins and the girls, information about pop culture would also be very useful since while some things could be the same, others would be very different, then there were the possible allies, the girls were an option, but if things turned red, he preferred that they were not around, the Frankie parents were clearly in favor of inclusion, so if he needed allies in that aspect or perhaps some council, turning to them would be a great idea.

There was also a certain institution that her new friends attended, Monster High, the subject had hardly been touched on during his educational talk, basically because no one agreed where to start and they spent about an hour supporting Cleo and Clawdeen arguing until Viveka interceded and put him to read a book of basic language, he didn't last long before he put it aside. But back to the important thing, the little knew about Monster High was that it was a kind of school of some kind for monsters, which received all kinds of them regardless of whether they were of a specific species, humans were also accepted but neither seemed to want to go there, which gave him an idea.

When the Omnitrix was finished repairing, he could go there as a human, it would be the first step, then there was his work as a superhero, with extraterrestrial forms extremely similar to monsters, basically his entire line of aliens belonging to the Anur system, he could be impersonating mysterious monsters who helped in the city, fostering a positive image between monsters and humans. But if he was not careful, his actions would be taken in a bad way.

This led him to one last detail, the watch, what was he going to say when that thing worked once more? Right now everyone believed that he was a Galvanic Mechamorph, they had already seen his human form, but this was just a hologram produced by the ID mask, he could keep the secret a bit longer, maybe lie to them saying that he managed to learn the language or something, but if his experience dealing with aliens of the "tracker" type had taught him anything, it is that never underestimate the smell of a hound, Clawdeen was going to detect the change of his scent, not to mention the biological change.

For now, he would continue with his "alien" facade, but when the watch was repaired, he would have to think of something, telling the truth was an option, but he had no proof that he was from an alternate reality.

"Upgrade, Upgrade, are you listening to me?"

Frankie's voice brought him out of his thoughts, causing him to look at her, the girl had a rather annoyed expression on her face, she had clearly realized that he was not paying attention.

He quickly took his pad and wrote on it and then handed it to the young woman.

"Sorry, I was thinking."

The young woman looked at him doubtfully but nodded.

"I was asking you if you understood everything I told you."

"Parties good, studying bad, I got it" was his written response.

"I didn't say ..." upon seeing that the alien's eye had curled up, the girl knew that he was simply making fun of her, giving her an annoyed look. "Very funny, did you understand everything I told you about humans?" he nodded. "Okay, it will be all for now, I'll go call my parents, we must make dinner and knowing them, they will spend the whole night in their laboratories and forget to eat, again."

He nodded again and watched her go, his attention then turned to the teen magazine that the young woman left behind, curiously took it, and opened it to a random page.

Just to close it seconds later, yeah, that thing wasn't his type of reading, maybe if he went to find some of the comics in the proto truck he could entertain himself a bit.

He turned his head, making sure no one was around, and headed for the door, not before donning his ID mask and leaving the house.

"I think I saw the last volume of Ultimate Spider-man among the things" he muttered as he walked out.

"You arrive earlier than I thought." Eon casually commented, the time traveler had his hands clasped behind his back and was giving a slightly surprised look to Doctor Animo, who was accompanied by a humanoid being with armor made of metal and bone, he looked at Eon with some hostility, but he didn't say anything. "And you brought a friend."

The being was clearly an alien, he wore a black outfit that covered the upper part of its body with a red stripe in the middle, it had gray pants, metallic gloves, and black boots. The part of his chest and shoulders had a kind of armor made of bone that consisted of a rib cage on his chest, a tailbone on the right shoulder, and a skull belonging to some extraterrestrial species on the left.

The only part of his body that was exposed was his face, it had a large lower jaw with teeth fused to his lips, his eyes were dark red, and had gills under the cheeks.

"An ally of circumstances I would say." the Doctor clarified, and then pointed to the alien. "His name is Khyber, as you can guess, he doesn't like Tennyson very much." the named Khyber just snorted in annoyance and then turned away from them both. "It's not much of the social type."

"I can see." for Eon, the presence of that alien was just one more number in his equation, he was not going to bother to scold Animo for something like that, as long as it is useful for his plans, he will agree. "How was your escape my good doctor?" he asked kindly as he started to walk, Animo, next to him, just chuckled.

"I managed to open all the cells in a block, and with the help of a petty thief I opened all the others, the plumbers did not have as many personnel available, it will take them a while before they realize that we escaped." he explained with amusement, his eyes meeting a pile of white and gray objects, similar to humanoid bodies, which he deduced they were. An emotion of shudder ran through his body when he saw those things better, the bodies were dry as if they had been mummified by the passage of time, he did not need a doctorate to know who was responsible for that act. "I see you've been busy too."

"Little ropes that needed to be tied up before continuing with my plan." was the response of the time traveler.

Both men stopped when they reached the crater, where Khyber was standing, staring angrily at a glass box containing a certain pair of idiotic Galvans.

"I order you to release me hyper evolved reptile!" demanded the plump of the small captive aliens, while his partner just chewed a piece of gum. "I am a certified plumber! You have no idea how many charges I will bring against you and furthermore…! " the sound of an energy sword being ignited was enough to silence the little alien, who recoiled in fear.

"It's been a long time since I've eaten frog legs, I wonder if yours will taste the same." the threat was explicit, the larger alien pointed the energy sword that Eon had given to Animo towards the box and made a small shallow cut.

"I-I'm not afraid of you! Come on, give it a try! I will show you which of the two is the superior species! " replied the little plump Galvan with false bravado, his partner only shook his head, he was going to condemn them if he continued like this.

"It seems you already met our guests." The time traveler commented with amusement, seeing that little being so scared entertained him. "And it seems that now you own my sword."

"I hope you don't mind my dear time traveler." Animo added. "I am a man of science, when I found him, I believed that the best thing would be to give him an optimal weapon for his abilities."

"And you won't hear me complain about this weapon." Khyber retracted the energy sword and sheathed the hilt at his waist, then crossed his arms. "Animo mentioned your deal."

Eon couldn't help but find that funny, he had already considered the possibility of someone else joining the Doctor during his escape and he was willing to offer the same deal, as long as he didn't betray him.

"Of course, Khyber the Hunter." the alien raised an eyebrow when he heard the old man mention his title. "I could use someone with your talents, and I am willing to offer you the same treatment as Doctor Animo, join me and I will take you to a dimension where plumbers do not have you in their sights."

"Tempting, but you can offer me something else." Eon's smiling face twisted into a more serious grimace at that, if he was in a worse mood he would not have hesitated to reduce that alien to an old mummy, but under the circumstances, he could afford to be a little more flexible.

"Sure, not only will I take you to a dimension without plumbers, you will also help me rule it, you see." the traveler directed his gaze to the center of the crater, which was imitated by the two villains, although they did not see what he saw. "In the center of this hole, there is a small crack between realities, a latent wound that was opened by mistake, I deduce that none have encountered Ben Tennyson during their escape, so my suspicion is confirmed."

"And what would that suspicion be?" Animo asked curiously.

"That Ben Tennyson was expelled from this reality, or rather this multiverse." He replied, the two remaining villains looked at him with confused expressions, which made him slightly annoyed. "Why do you always have to explain all this?" he muttered to himself in frustration. "To keep things simple, Ben Tennyson was sucked into a slipspace hole, space and time bent in on itself and instead of sending him to a point within this timeline, he pulled him out of our existence by sending him to some other site."

"Which is on the other side of this supposed crack, right?" asked the hunter, Eon nodded satisfied that it wasn't just brute force. "Sounds plausible, but how are you going to get us to this other side?"

"With my powers of course, I just need to find the exact wave frequency that this site emits and when it does we can pass."

"And how long will it take you to find this frequency?" Animo asked.

"Years."

"What?" exclaimed the doctor in surprise. "You said you would get me out of this reality!"

"Please Doctor, I would advise you to calm down." the man took a step back when he saw Eon's palms glow purple, he had to swallow hard to calm himself, he didn't want to be on the receiving end of that time traveler. "I have a plan for cases like these, we just need a Galvan brain."

"You mean those two useless ones?" the hunter asked as he pointed at the Galvans, who were trying to escape the box, but failed miserably.

"For the love of father time, I'm not that insane." was Eon's response, he will be crazy and maybe a little sick in the head, but not even he was going to trust something that that pair of useless touches. "I was thinking of someone else, a promising Galvan who also hates Ben Tennyson." Eon opened a portal to his right and began to walk towards him, the best thing would be to go find that Galvan right now, they would not have much time when the plumbers discovered that this entire site was under their power now. "I'll be back in a few seconds."

The other two villains watched as the time traveler disappeared through the portal, Khyber wasted no time and went towards the bodies of the plumbers, he had seen some weapons, so he was not going to miss the opportunity to obtain more arsenal.

For his part, Animo went to sit next to the box containing the two Galvans, who seemed to be arguing.

"This is your fault Blukic! I told you left that stupid gum! " the plump scolded his companion, who just chewed the candy.

"I wasn't going to put down my gum." the one called Blukic made a balloon with the chewing gum, which soon after exploded and covered his partner.

"You're a…!"

A young human with gray hair and red eyes was sweeping with an annoyed expression the remains of what appeared to be some kind of extraterrestrial food.

He wears a red shirt with a black line in the center, gray pants, and black sneakers

The boy, no older than eleven years old, let out an angry growl when he saw that a Galvan in a lawyer's suit passing by the place dropped a crumpled paper in the same place where he had just cleaned.

"I don't hear you are cleaning!" exclaimed a female voice from the surroundings, which made the boy resume his work.

This did not stop him from muttering hundreds and hundreds of curses to himself.

"Stupid planet, stupid Vilgax, stupid Luhley, stupid Azmuth." he growled as he continued to sweep.

His work made him walk around a bit, but he was so absorbed in his complaints that he did not notice a certain time traveler until he swept over his feet.

"Is that how the Galvans welcome their friends?" Eon asked sarcastically, the boy for his part recoiled when he recognized him, but it wasn't out of fear, rather it was to see him directly in the face. "How are you Albedo? It's been a while."

"Eon, what are you doing here?" he questioned, then continued with his duties.

"It is not obvious?"

"With you all things are very confusing, always, are you from the present, from the past or from the future?" the boy was quite disrespectful, which slightly annoyed the time traveler, but it's not like he could blame him, not with his tedious condemnation. "Speak fast, I have to continue this charade."

"How about going on an excursion to another dimension?" he asked, clearly making fun of his age, which the boy didn't like as he glared at him.

"Like our last 'excursion'?" The sarcasm in his voice was obvious, but Eon didn't bother to return the comment. "And that they erase me once more from existence? No thanks."

"This time it's different, you see, Ben Tennyson has been expelled from this whole multiverse, he has gone to another, what kind? I don't know, that's why I need you, after all, you are the smartest Galvan of all, you even surpass Azmuth. " the boy didn't say anything for a few seconds, he just pondered the time traveler's words, but time was running out, so Eon had to insist. "If we leave now and you help me to hit the correct frequency of waves, I will free you from that stupid shackle that keeps your powers inactive and I will give you ... a part of the dimension that we conquer, what do you say?"

"Ben Tennyson, he's there, right?"

"It is my suspicion."

"I'm inside, but I want to be the one to eliminate him and keep his Omnitrix." Eon nodded, he could accept something like that, he was ready to use his powers again to take him to earth, but the Galvan / human spoke again "Before we go, I have one thing that might be of use to us."

The way Albedo said that aroused Eon's curiosity, the hybrid was a really intelligent being, very arrogant and he underestimated others a lot, but that did not detract from his mind, if he had something that he believed he could be useful, Eon could rely on that.

"I am listening to you."

Eon cautiously observed the place where they had ended up, recognized it as a kind of vault, where there were hundreds and hundreds of gadgets, was that Ascalon?

"It has to be around here ..." muttered the human / Galvan hybrid as he rummaged around the place, Eon patiently waited for him to find whatever he was looking for, it didn't take long until Albedo turned to him with a vial in her hands, this appeared to be vacuum sealed and had certain hazard labels taped to it. "This may be of use to us."

"I don't want to doubt you Albedo, I know you are very clever, too smart for your own good, but what is there in there?" he asked genuinely curious and also a bit suspicious, he didn't want to have to fight his, now, allies from the first moment.

"The remains of a certain mechamorph, the idiot Azmuth recovered when the Malgax armor calcified, he set out to recreate Malware once more, but without the error in his code, a way to atone for the fate of his little girl creation." he responded as if it was not important, even Eon had to admit that it was sinic. "I'll take it with us, before we launch into any multiverse, I want to be sure that we will not disintegrate as soon as we set foot there."

"Your lack of confidence hurts my feelings Albedo." the Galvan arched an eyebrow at that comment. "We have already lost a lot of time; it is time to go."

"You are the boss." she replied as she headed towards him. "Before we go back, can we stop by for some potatoes with chili? Starving."

Eon rolled his eyes at that annoying kid and his addiction to chili sauce fries, those things were going to kill him sooner or later.

Welcome to the end of the chapter.

First of all, yes, I know, I'm very slow, but I want to develop things well, I didn't like much of what I wrote and, even so, it was the best I wrote, they have no idea of the atrocities that there were Before this final result, I know that I can improve and believe me I am on it.

This brings me to something I was thinking of doing and that was, re-edit all the chapters, starting with the first one, mean, according to the statistics many readers enter that one and then leave, I deduce that because of how horribly written it is, those who still remain with that, I love them very much.

Sentimentality aside.

I'm going to do them again so, if suddenly you notice that there was a strange change, it was that I will edit grammar, the pronouns, the dialogues, the structure, everything, basically, I will do the chapter again, there will not be many changes, I say you could skip it and even then it wouldn't affect your knowledge of what's going on much. I think I'm beating around the bush. Well, I think that's all.

The acceptance that this story has continues to perplex me, guys, really, you are the best, for those who speak Spanish, chicos, son los mejores ... en español.

Did I already say that I love you very much?

Enough! The pills still have me groggy ... let's go with the notes before I want to cry meanwhile I said I appreciate your readings.


-Notes-


1- As you read, I mentioned that Ben had another skateboard, which was destroyed during the first season of Omniverse, Khyber's fault, this one now is another, I took the idea that he had one since as is known Ben 10K has many, it is like a small tribute to that great guy ... God what they did to him in the reboot, it was like seeing Peter B. Parker but much sadder.

2- Frankie has a heart of Gold, she would undoubtedly want to help Upgrade, although her father would have said no, her innocence and goodness also make her a too easy target, I repeat, too easy.

3- Spectra wastes no time and although she has published that, do not take it as if she had bad intentions, just ... she is careless and yes, not many believe her words, according to the books, the only one who always knows where to look is Toralie, since she knows that even in lies, Spectra possesses a lot of information.

4- Ghoulia cameo, oh yeah! And also jealousy of father, my humor is so complex sometimes ...

5- Many things are mentioned about Ben, among them Kai, well, I like the couple, but this story is not about Ben and Kai, so ... convenient excuse to separate them, although ... I'm sure anyone would be uncomfortable if suddenly Find out that he is destined to marry and have a child with a person you just started dating.

6- I discovered that Clawsome… is awesome… incredible right? I'm still in shock.

7- About the Taydens, that damn monetary system is giving me headaches, almost as much as understanding Eon, I wrote it during the chapter, but here I will tell you more, 1 tayden is supposed to have the approximate value of 350 Earth dollars, this from the monetary point of view, but uhg it is very inconsistent that you can buy with them, on the other hand, their value as a precious gem would be close to 11 thousand dollars each, yes, Ben gave them a small fortune as a gift, Reasons? Hey, they're not much use to him and he can create more.

8- Ben is already planning his movements, I honestly did not like that in Omniverse they treat him like a fool, which is, but taking into account that he is smart enough to get a B in all his subjects and without the need To studying hard, it makes you think, I won't turn him into a brainiac, but if he used his brain. By the way, did you know that Ben dropped out of school? He keeps showing up once a month, but only to hand in his homework since, due to his particular situation, they take it as he studies and works at the same time.

9- 3 new villains appeared, Khyber, Albedo, and well ... the remains of Malware, but you'll see what will happen.

10- These notes have nothing to do with and do not clarify anything that happens, since I did not make many references to data established in the wiki of both series, but I like to write this, by the way, does anyone else like the Eon evil and who plans everything three steps ahead? Because I do.
