After the water hit Ben he felt like he was picked up by something. He looked under him to see that it was the water itself, and on his head seemed to be some sort of tiny creature. The water had carried him to the shore, awaiting there was a girl wearing a dress with various shades of blue holding a trident like spear and she had a pair of some type of wings and a tail.
"Uh hi" he greeted, "hello" she said in a slightly sheepish voice. The little thing on his head made a small noise, Ben picked it up off his head and saw that it was a tiny person, tiny girl to be precise. "Well, not the strangest thing I've seen" he said when the dragon girl appeared next to him.
"But it's on the list, way bottom of it", "interesting" the girl said after he put the little person down. "Are" the dragon girl said as she poked the tiny Girl's stomach which had been inflated with water. "You" she poked again and with each poke water sprayed out of her mouth. "Dead?" She asked, the tiny humanoid groaned then opened her eyes slightly.
"I have an idea" Ben said growing some of Shocksquatch's metal studs on him then rubbed his hands together fast. "Shock and Awe eh" he said as he gave the little girl a tiny zap, she shot up very excited for some reason.
"YAY!!!!!" She squeaked flying around, "huh oh I've found you!!" The girl then hugged The blue dragon girl's nose, now without the wings and tail, then flew to Ben and jumped on his face.
"Hey hold it" he said pulling her off, "mind explaining what's going on?" He asked. She then blinked then freed herself from his grip "oh of course, hello my name is Syrup, and I'm a fairy" she said.
"Mine is Leviathan" the blue hair said, "weird one of my old transformations was named Leviathan, anyway my names Ben" the alien teen said. "Good to meet you both" Syrup said, then they heard annoyed grunts coming from the forest. "Sounds like someone's either in trouble or something else". Ben said as they rushed over.
A few feet into the greenery and Leviathan got hit in the head by something. "Ow" she groaned, "hey Leviathan, you okay?" Ben asked concerned. Then the same thing got him in the head "OW!!! Okay what is that!?" He yelled.
The culprit had been a mechanical bug like creature that bore a resemblance to a beetle. "There it is!!!" A voice said, "not getting away this time!" Another rang. Two girls had arrived, one was short and wore red and the other was tall tan and had blonde tomboyish hair and a bandage over her nose.
"Get Away You Meanie" Leviathan yelled swinging her trident spear around. She hit the bug and it got sent to the little girl in red, "Fire ball!" She yelled then a ball of fire formed in her hand and shot itself towards the bug.
This had sent it to the tan blonde, "here I come!!!" She hit it with her battle ax and it flew towards Ben. "This ones mine" he said turning his arm into Rath's "APPOLPLEXIAN OVER TOSS!!!!" He hit the big straight in the bag and stabbed it with his knuckle claw. The bug then turned into a pile of purple dust, "what the?" Ben said confused.
Until he realized that the bug dust was still on his knuckle claw "EW!!!!!!!" He said trying to wash it off with Water Hazard's hydro palms. "Oh we got it" the red girl said as both walked off, "oh man that is disgusting" Ben said trying to get the dust off.
Leviathan had been watching and was slightly bewildered, a few minutes ago he had electric powers. She observed from watching Ben give Syrup a small shock to wake her up. Then he had a beastly arm with a large knuckle claw which he used to kill the bug thing.
And now he was using water based abilities to wash the bug dust off his hand. "Um... excuse me, Ben?" She spoke up, he finally got his hand clean when she talked. He turned to her and replied "uh, yes Leviathan!" He said, "what kind of mage are you?" She asked.
"Mage?" Ben repeated, "you know I'm a water mage, I have water based abilities" Leviathan said. Ben remembered when he was falling out of the sky, she had controlled the water to catch him. "Oh yeah you made that lake water catch me when I was falling" he said, "have to say that's really impressive" he said.
Her face turned slightly pink "uh well thank you" she replied. Anyway how is it that you wield so many powers?" Leviathan asked. Ben looked around then asked to go somewhere more private.
She lead them through the forest, Ben decided to explain himself, he told her about the multiverse and how he got here and who he was. He then used the combined power of Brainstorm to gain telepathic powers to transfer his memories.
She believed him, then explained that he had landed on the planet of Aquafall. And mages of this world when using their powers to maximum capacity gain certain characteristic traits of mythical creatures. Commonly mages had the features of dragons, which would explain why Leviathan had the wings and tail of some sort of water dragon like creature when they first met.
"Wow, talk about crazy" Ben said, "yeah, though meeting a boy from another universe wasn't on my agenda I guess fate had other plans" Leviathan said. Ben chuckled "yeah I guess so" he said, "if I may interrupt" Syrup sad gaining he two's attention.
She then told them about a meteorite that had struck the planet not to long ago. And odd creatures had come out of it, such as that beetle like creature from earlier. The fairy then invited them to join the aquafall defense force, Leviathan declined but Ben said he'd think it over.
"It's nothing personal, it's just I just lost my family not to long ago and..." he paused for a short while. "I just need some time to think" he finished, "okay then" Syrup said floating next to them. "Just tell me when you made your final decision" she said. They then walked off the fairy was going to join them but she fainted.
Time skip
"You sure have a big appetite" Leviathan commented on Syrup as she was eating bread. For a small fairy she had a large appetite, she was eating bread four times her length.
"I hadn't had anything to eat or drink for three days" Syrup explained. Ben who had been sitting next to them outside Leviathan's house. "Why would you keep yourself for eating for three whole days?" He asked. Equally impressed by how much the fairy ate.
"I've been caught up in trying to find the right people for my team I just lost track of time" Syrup answered. She then landed in the box, "though I've got to admit the bread was fantastic, give me some more" she said. "What? Sorry that's all I have, are you still hungry?" Leviathan asked Syrup. "Oh nah, I'm fine, thank you for your hospitality" she said, then blushed when her stomach growled.
Ben chuckled a little, "looks like someone isn't true to their stomach" he said. She tried to hide her blush when they heard a familiar voice, they turned next door to see the tan blonde bob cut from earlier delivering something to Leviathan's neighbor.
"Hey ya home Mushuzu?" She asked, Ben blinked, mainly because of the sheer size of load she was carrying. 'What's in there bricks?' He asked himself, the neighbor now known as Mushuzu had walked out. "Oh Jörmungandr how's mister Travis?" She asked the delivery girl, now known as Jörmungundr.
"He's feeling old and tired so I'll be making his coal deliveries from now on" she said to Mushuzu. "Oh is that so? so can I have two bags of coal next time?" She asked. 'Those bags are full of coal, how can she carry into all?' Ben thought. 'Maybe since this world has magic she has super strength magic?'.
"Of coarse" Jörmungandr said, Syrup's stomach growled again, "why don't we head into town?" Leviathan said. They all nodded, Ben noticed that a few of Mushuzu's flowers looked a like they were withering so he walked over. "Hi there" he greeted, "oh hello" Mushuzu said, "hey your that boy from earlier" Jörmungandr said.
"Yeah, any way Mushuzu right?" Ben asked, she nodded " I noticed a few of your flowers look a little..." he said pointing to them. "Yeah, in afraid so" Mushuzu said, "mind if I help?" He asked, Ben then turned his arm into Swampfire's and blasted it with gas. This intern made the flowers grow bright and pretty again, "wow amazing" Mushuzu said.
Later on Ben, Leviathan and Syrup were walking along the town that she lived in. "Our town may be small, but it has all the shops and services we need, weapons, tools, there's even a peace officer to keep everyone safe" the water mage explained. "Neat, in my world there were intergalactic security officers to keep the peace between worlds, and I was a part of it" Ben said.
"A space cop, weird but cool" Syrup said "thanks" Ben replied, the fairy then turned her attention to a large gathering taking place. "What's going on?" She asked, Ben had sped over to listen in. Apparently a small team was going somewhere to look into some odd reports. He then sped back without being noticed, "nothing to worry about for you two" he said, then flinched remembering Syrup said that she was creating the aquafall defense force.
'Maybe I should've told her' he thought, they finally arrived at their destination, an inn called the crooked dragon tail. Syrup had flown off to who knows where, "here's the best place to get lunch" Leviathan said. "Actually the crooked dragon's tail is the only place that sells food around here".
"Hey where did Syrup go?" Ben looked around "huh guess she must've flown off" he said, then his stomach growled. "Oh yeah been in space with nothing but nasty space food, so that means I'm kinda hungry too, sorry" he apologized to Leviathan in advance.
When they entered the waitresses greeted them. "Hi welcome to the dragon tail" they said, Ben caught a whiff of the air and immediately his mouth started to water.
"Hey come on not in front of girls" he said trying to wipe his mouth clean with Snare-Oh's bandages. Handy to have a transformation that's powers double as toilet paper or tissues. "Hey there long time no see" the bar keep said to Leviathan, the water mage then asked about her brother.
She replied with a negative then was wondering why a parental would leave his little sister alone like that. Ben who had heard was also equally judgmental but decided to leave it at be since it didn't concern him.
He sat down next to Leviathan "sorry about that, had to uh, take care of something" Ben said wiping off the last bit of drool with a snare-oh bandage. The lady behind the bar smirked "so I see you went and got yourself a little boyfriend, and by the looks of it a pretty handsome one" she said that made both blush.
"What he's not my boyfriend"
"I just met her"
The lady giggled, "relax I'm only teasing" she said, "but keep a tight reign on him or else someone might end up stealing him from you". Both were still blushing, "any way why don't I get you both some tea".
Once she brought it over Ben took in his in one gulp, the two had looked at him funny. "Sorry, hadn't had anything good to eat or drink for a few months, it looked so good I couldn't resist" he said. "Well glad to see a traveler likes our tea" the bar keep said, Ben scratched his head sheepishly.
"Anyway, why don't I get you two some pasta" she said, then Syrup arrived "yeah I like pasta, super sized please, let's start some off with some water fill me up bar keep" she said.
She powered down a large glass of water, "well at least now we found you" Ben retorted to the fairy. "Hey where did you run off to anyway?" Leviathan asked.
Just then three men walked in "I knew I'd find you, you're a slippery little bug aren't ya? Well fairy or not you're dead" one of them said. "What the heck did you do?" Ben asked slightly irked, "uh..." Syrup said a little scared.
"Excuse me Ulton, what are you doing..." she bar keep said until he cut her off. "Shut up, this ain't your business" he said, "or should I assume your taking sides with that foul mouthed fairy". Ben then intervened, the man had told a woman to shut up for no good reason, this had snapped his wig.
"Sir" he said walking up to them with a demonic aura "whether this is about a the fairy or not, you just threatened a woman. And let's just say" he then gave them a wicked death glare.
"I don't take to kindly to that" Ben then turned his arm into Heat Blast's and sparked it a little in front of the men's faces. "So you going to apologize or am I gonna have to wipe the floor with you?" He said. The three had went still then charged past him "avoid him at all cost its the fairy I want" he said.
Ben looked back and split into three "GET BACK HERE!!!" The three Bens said. During the whole chase the girls from earlier, the red girl and Jörmungandr were about to eat. That was until the three men had knocked over their food.
And that also included Leviathan's tea, then a large brawl nearly occurred, the bar keep was worried then yelled "IF YOU'RE GONNA FIGHT THEN DO IT OUTSIDE!!!" Ben had caught wind of what she said. "As you wish" he and his clones said as they re combined.
He grew Alien X's three pointed crest on his head and turned his arm into said celestialsapien's. he snapped his fingers then they were teleported outside, "hey what the!?" The men were baffled.
Ben then stepped in front of all of them "now you already saw what I'm capable of, now see what else I can do" he said. The shapeshifter full transformed into Omni and turned his left arm into Diamond head's and hit right into Atomix's. "prepare to feel power that's likes have never reached this universe" he said charging at them using XLR8's legs.
"What the hell, who or what is this guy" one of them said before Ben got him in the gut with a diamond fist while back handing the other with Atomix's hand. "How about I fire things up?" He he quipped before turning both hands into Heat blasts and blasted fire around him.
Then flew up on a flaming rock platform "oh no" "we're in way over our heads" he chased them and launched his platform next to the men. Which exploded into flaming rocks, "now how about you guys chill out" he said before turning his head into Arctiguana's.
"Hey what're you doing" Ulton asked before Ben blasted ice around their legs which formed over their bodies. "As I said I don't take kindly to men talking like that to women" he said before looking them straight in the eyes. With Eye Guy's eyes, "so if you don't wanna get pounded into the ground, Get your act together" he warned.
"We will we will just promise you won't kill us" they begged, "relax back where I'm from I used to be a hero, and once a hero always a hero. It's just I'm chivalrous" he then melted the ice, "but remember what I said" they ran away to terrified to mess with him.
"Woah, how" he heard a familiar voice behind him. Ben turned to see Jörmungandr and the red girl running up to him, "that was amazing" the tan girl exclaimed. "Yeah my name is Bahumut please tell me how you managed to use such powerful transformation magic" she begged.
The teen hero tried to make a break for it only to be grabbed by Jörmungandr. He confirmed that she had super human strength seeing that she was able to hold down him at Four Arm's Strength and muscle mass.
"You're not getting away" she said, "awe some on, can somebody help me, where's professor Paradox when you need him!?" Ben cried while at the same time being crushed.
Later on they were in a hill side, as it turned out one of Ben's attempts at escaping with Leviathan's help along with Bahumut and Jörmungandr's efforts to subdue him had accidentally wrecked the crooked dragon's tail.
He promised to repair it in the morning, "well that was something" he said. "I can't believe we completely destroyed her inn, poor Sedo how can I show my face in there again" Leviathan said, "not the first time that's happened to me" Ben said.
"My beef bowl, everyone say that the dragon's tail's is the best but I didn't even get to taste it" Jörmungandr said depressed. "My flan, not just any flan but flan with ice cream" Bahumut moped. "to be honest I could've been worse, lucky the damage I did can be easily repaired by me" Ben said.
"I never got my pasta either, super sized pasta!!!" Syrup cried then their stomachs growled. And then they all gave a laugh, "I don't think we ever introduced ourselves, besides from Ben" Jörmungandr said.
"Hi my name is Jörmungandr", "I'm Bahumut" "and I'm Syrup the fairy" "and my name's Leviathan" Ben smiled. He may have lost his old world and family, but it seems he found a new one to call home. "As for me, my name is Ben Tennyson" he said.
