It was a quiet evening in Magnolia, Ben was relaxing in the currently being repaired guild hall, his cousin, friend and old partner were currently out on jobs to earn some money to move out.
"Now this is what I'm talking about, a quiet day nothing but sweet relax..." but the moment was ruined when Natsu showed up challenging him to a fight.
"Forget what I said the moment's gone" the shapeshifter complained, "come on dude just fight me, I'm so bored" the dragon slayer whined. "Don't you have anything better to do than pester me, like I don't know sneak into an innocent girl's house and look through their stuff" Ben shot at them, they both bothered Ben enough for him to throw the first punch.
"Alrigh... GAH, hey wait hold on a sec" Natsu said, unfortunately the angered alien caught him when he attempted the Fire Dragon Iron Fist with Snare-oh's bandages.
"Now how about some gas in your face" he said using Gutrot's powers to spray sulfur-dioxide in the dragon slayer's face.
"Oh man that reeks" he complained, "should've thought twice before fighting me, we both know what happened the last time you challenged me to a fight, maybe I should get my point through using Sevoflurane" Omni said blasting Natsu in the face with knockout gas.
Everyone wasn't to surprised to see Natsu get his butt kicked by Ben, but to get owned in under a second is a new record, "that should keep him down for a while" he said.
"So you did beat Natsu and did so in under a second" Erza said to the brunette, "impressive Ben" she said.
"I aim to please" he said, "maybe you'd prefer more of a challenge" the red haired woman spoke up, she then pointed to Ben, "Ben I challenge you to a one on one fight" Erza said. Everyone was shocked, normally it's the other way around and someone challenges her to a fight, usually Natsu.
"Two of Fairy tail's most strongest members duking it out" Grey commented, "this may get Messy".
Jimmy popped his head out of no where "messy, THIS'LL BE AWESOME, BEN TENNYSON TAKING ON TITANIA ERZA, IV'E GOT TO SEE THIS".
"Also your clothes" he mentioned, "Gahhhh", Ben agreed to the fight "very well we'll duel tomorrow and no later" Erza said, "Maybe Ben'll finally have his butt handed to him" Natsu said steadily recovering.
"No one can beat Erza" he laughed, before he could sabotage the shapeshifter, the latter saw him coming and turned his head into that of Toe pick's then opened the faceplate, "AAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" The dragon slayer screamed in terror backing away.
"That must be one scary power" Lucy commented shivering, "it comes in handy" Ben admitted, "still scary though, I creep myself out".
The next day everyone gathered outside the guild hall until a man appeared who was the mayor of Magnolia's assistant, he said due to each combatant's strength they were forbidden to fight in the city.
Erza had told him that they were actually going to fight somewhere else to avoid damage to the city, "smart move" Ben commented, Erza smiled.
The poor assistant fainted upon hearing that, he went there just to say nothing at all, "let's drop him back at the mayor's office first" Ben said.
Later on they had arrived in a large flat field, "nice battle field" Ben commented, "the battle shall begin shortly we have people placing votes" Makorov said.
A large Majority voted for Erza including Natsu and Grey, a few bet on Ben being Makorov, Cana and Jimmy, "come on Ben you can do it" the super fan said.
"Okay let the battle begin" the dwarf elder said, Ben went Omni and charged straight at Erza "a full on attack not wise" she said before re quipping into her giant armor and striking him only to see that Ben had disappeared.
Using Chamalien's camouflage power he delivered two right hooks to Erza then used his tail to fling her into the sky.
"Hey Erza" Ben yelled while flying up to her, "where I come from we sometimes say" at that moment Ben multiplied himself by fifty, "it's one for all and all for one".
They all ganged up on Erza into a dog pile, but she knocked them all off, "test number one: strength check" one of the Omni clones said before they regrouped, "okay let's see how you handle my fire power" Ben said launching a torrent of flames at her. Erza then requipped into an Armor that was primarily dark red but also sported orange and black parts, with the first ones being shaped like flames and the second resembling the limbs of a Dragon. Her bright scarlet hair was tied into a pair of high, long pigtails.
In her right hand was a long red, flaming sword, her flame empress armor, and had absorbed the fire, "now feel mine" she said throwing the fire back to Ben who used water hazard's powers to extinguishy the fire.
"Test two: elemental powers check" Omni said, he then turned his legs into XLR8's and sped towards Erza delivering multiple strikes to her face and abdomen, clutching he side Erza then re-quipped into cheetah printed outfit with a large collar around her neck and a tail hanging from the back of her shorts, both made of bushy fur. On both sides of her head was a pair of large cheetah ears. In her hands was a pair of short swords with elaborate hand-guards similar to a rapier's, shaped like a rose's thorns, her flight armor, to match Ben's speed.
"Test TREE!" He ducked an incoming branch, ":speed check" he said. "I keep hearing Ben say test and check" Lucy pointed out, "what do you think it means?" Levy wondered, "let see if you can catch me up here?" The alien said growing Astrodactyl's wings and flying upwards.
"Re-quip" Erza then transformed into a black amor, sporting some silver trimming. A distinctive feature of the armor is its pair of wings, which are reminiscent of those of a Dragon or a bat. Around Erza's neck is a neck guard decorated by several gems, and, while wearing this armor, her long scarlet hair is tied up in a high ponytail, with two bangs framing her face. Her large shoulderpads, each composed of two silver-edged plates one over the other, sport silver crosses on them too, and flank the high collar, whose shape is reminiscent of that of a dress. The silver-edged breastplate reveals a fair amount of Erza's cleavage and belly, with plates flanking her hips and reaching down to her very large waistguard, composed of very long, silver-edged plates shaped like feathers and decorated by silver crosses. The waistguard leaves the front of Erza's body exposed, with her groin being covered by a dark indument. The slim gauntlets come equipped with prominent protection for her hands, each sporting silver patterns. The plates guarding her legs are sliver-edged on her thighs and knees, but pitch black dark on her metal greaves, her black wing armor, and flew toward Ben, "test four: (squawk) flight, check" he said before blasting Erza with a laser then used energy whips to catch and sling her to the ground, her black wing armor and flew toward Ben, "test four: (squawk) flight, check" he said before blasting Erza with a laser then used energy whips to catch and sling her to the ground.
She steadily got up "overall durability test: check, only one option" Ben said turning his arms into Loadstar's, "I suggest you give up Erza" he said, "please what makes you think I'd give up now" she retorted.
Erza re-quipped into an Armor in which the upper part of this armor only consists of a small breastplate that is composed of feather-shaped plates pointing upwards with a large metal flower on the front which extends along her hips. Her biceps are covered by metal straps and her very large plated gauntlets sport feather-shaped plates at the edges.
Her waist is circled by large, decorated plates reminiscent of feathers that lie on a long skirt. She wears a pair of plated boots which is partially hidden under her skirt, each sporting metal ornaments shaped like wings. Erza also wears a neck guard made of feather-like plates and a tiara with prominent metal wings. The armor also sports two pairs of large metal wings which adorn Erza's back, composed of metal feathers which get longer and larger at the edges, her Heaven's wheel armor, and sent multiple swords to Ben, "I don't think so, better save my magnetism for later, maybe I should show her my orbituary" He said growing Gravattack's molten core and trapping her blades in his orbit and sent them back to sender, her Heaven's wheel armor and sent multiple swords to Ben, "I don't think so, better save my magnetism for later, maybe I should show her my orbituary" He said growing Gravattack's molten core and trapping her blades in his orbit and sent them back to sender.
"Now time to prove your attracted to me, magnetically attracted that is" Ben quipped using loadstar's powers to pull her towards him, "now how about I try your armor on for size" he said tearing small bits of her metal armor off using Gravattack's orbit to spin the metal around him and hawing Heatblast's fire power to melt it.
Omni then gathered all the armor bits and swords, save for Erza's breastplate, above him and formed the melted metal into a large blob, "now to cool this off" he quipped using Water hazard's powers to spray water all over the blob to turn it into a giant silver ball.
"Now time for some bowling practice", Ben levitated himself into the air cocked his hand back along with the ball and launched it straight at Erza who at the moment was in a crater.
The silver ball then ran over her and Ben proceeded to do this multiple times along with blast her with all his other powers now that she was out of commission and couldn't react.
Later on all everyone could see was Ben still Omni lifting an unconscious Erza off the ground bridal style, she moaned a little, "I think you had enough" he said, 'I hated giving her those injuries, but that was her only weakness, plus she was the one who challenged me' Ben thought.
A few hours later everyone returned back from the guild from the little match the two adaptable fighters participated in.
Though she had lost, Erza's respect for Ben grew, even more so to the point where she could consider him a love interest.
However as payback for tearing off her armor she nailed him in the gut, though Ben was in pain he fully understood why, the latter was comfortably sitting at a table with his super fan until someone neither have seen entered the guild. "Well well who do we have here" a feminine voice said, Ben looked behind him to see a light brown haired woman with noticeably large, "assets" wearing a green dress.
"Uh hi Ben Tennyson, sorry but I don't think I've met you before" he said, "it would be reasonable you had only arrived a few days ago, the names evergreen" she said.
She was about to ask him to join her on a job before Erza intervened saying that he's already going on a job with her, "wow Ben you haven't been here long and you've already got two girls fighting over you" Macao said which made Ben blush.
After she had one Erza dragged Ben off to the courtyard to discuss the mission, "okay so why did you do that?" He asked, "other than I do have a job, I wasn't about to let a member of my team be stolen away from me, plus she looked at you the same way Natsu looks at meat" she explained. The shapeshifter agreed to go with the re-quip mage, the job, investigate attacks by strange animals in a far off town, all types of creatures.
The rest of the team arrived carrying another job request but let the two go on their own, in any case Lucy preferred bandits over beasts any day.
Erza had dragged Ben along to her dorm at fairy hills to help her pack, he stumbled upon a leather book that fell off one of her shelves only to find out that it was actually something unmentionable.
To avoid discovering anything else embarrassing he multiplied by ten and used his super speed to finish it faster which earned him a slam to Erza's breastplate making him blush.
