Omni-Magic Summer Ep 7: To Equestria and back again.
I don't own anything, except my OCs.
It was another sunny day in Canterlot City as there were no crimes involved. Although everyone was enjoying the peace, a certain 10-year-old wasn't at all. "AAHHHH! SO BORED!" Ben complains as he walks down the street while dialing his watch, looking through his list out of boredom. "Nothing exciting to do! No bad guys, and no awesome heroic stuff to do. No new stuff around here. It's like today's a slow day. And I hate it." He kept walking as he neared the school. Looking up in dullness, he noticed the pedestal out in the yard. He widens his eyes in remembering that Sunset mentions it is a portal to another place called "Equestria". He slowly grins as he gains an idea.
"A portal to another world, huh? Well, if there isn't anything to do in this world, then I can find plenty of stuff to do in another one!" The boy exclaims as he runs towards it. He starts feeling around the mirror sides for something that looks like a portal. He noticed something on the mirror that was facing the school, touching it to see it briefly rippled like water with a faint white glow. The boy smirks. "Bingo!" "What are you doing?" He was surprised as he looked back to see Sunset behind him. "Oh! Uhh... Nothing?" The girl gave him a look that said 'Really?' and looked back at the portal. "Uh-huh, and this 'nothing' has something to do with the portal to Equestria?"
"Come on, Sunset! Just give me a couple of hours in there. We're talking about a different world, filled with all sorts of amazing creatures! Filled with Dragons, Griffins, and Castles! And-" "No, Ben! Listen, your powers are very similar to a race there called 'Changelings'. And from what I've heard, they're not the friend-loving bunch. If you go over there and ponies see you in action, it will cause mass panic! Understand that I don't want you to go there because I'm trying to help and be a better friend than in New York. Understand." Sunset asked as Ben sighs out as he placed his hands in his pockets and looked away.
"I understand." Ben mumbles. "Thanks! Come on, I've got nothing to do today, and we can play some games together at your house." She walks away as Ben starts heading back, looking over the portal when he gets an idea. He grew his infamous smirk as he looked at the portal.
Later at night, at Ben's summer household, the boy was asleep until he shot open an eye and woke up. He gets out of the guest room bed and changes into his day clothes as he sneaks out of the room. He quickly peeks into his aunts' rooms to see they are fast asleep and quietly closes the doors.
He sneaks out the back door and climbs over the side fence, heading down the sidewalk. "Sorry, Sunset. But I'm not very good at listing to orders." He then dials the watch. "Let's see…Grey Matter? Nope! Tear-wolf? Heck, no! Heatblast? Nah-hah! XLR8? Yep!" FLASH The alien speeds towards the school, stopping in front of the portal as he stretches himself. "Okay, here we go." He got into a ready position and took off towards the mirror. "EQUESTRIA! HERE I COME!" He went through the portal in a flash of white light, screaming as he spiraled through the rainbow-colored vortex.
Intro:
A Galaxy is shown with some planets as outer space music is heard.
Just for a flash of green light to occur, and shows the Omnitrix symbol with Ben's silhouette in the middle as the song picks up.
"It started when an alien device did what it did."
The 1st clip is Ben discovering the Omnitrix as it latches onto his arm as he panics.
He then presses down on the dial, transforming him into Heatblast as he cries out.
"And stuck itself upon his wrist with secrets that it hid."
"Now he's got superpowers; he's no ordinary kid. He's Ben 10! (Ben 10!)"
The logo flashes a bit before showing off aliens:
Grey Matter, Overflow, Shock Rock, Heatblast, Tear-Wolf, Lodestar and Astrodactyl.
"So if you see him, you might be in for a big surprise."
"He'll turn into an alien before your very eyes!"
The boy is then shown transforming into Tear-Wolf as six more aliens appear and zoom in:
Upgrade, Shock Rock, XLR8, Four Arms, Heatblast and Tear-Wolf.
" He's slimy, freaky, fast, and strong; he's every shape and size."
"He's Ben 10! (Ben 10!)"
Just then, a flash-animated Ben runs towards the screen, flips, and morphs into Tear-Wolf.
He bites at the screen as a black and green '1'. Appear next to him.
2: Four Arms is next as he grins, raises his arms, and flexes.
3: Grey Matter leaps at the screen, only to splat comically.
4: XLR8 appears and zooms away.
"Armed with powers, he's on the case!"
"Fighting off evil from Earth or space!"
5: Upgrade wiggles his legs around as he raises his arms.
6: Shock Rock generates lots of power and blasts a large beam of blue energy across the screen.
7: Overflow flies upward on his water blasts.
8: Astrodactyl displays his whips and then rockets away on his jetpack.
"He'll never stop 'till he makes them pay!"
"Cause he's the baddest kid ever to save the day!"
9: Lodestar raises his claws as they generate a green aura as several pieces of metal float around him.
10: Heatblast chucks a fireball at the screen as Ben lands on the ground with his fist, cracking it as he grins.
"Ben 10! (Ben 10! B-B-B-Ben! Ben 10! B-B-B-Ben!)"
Tear-Wolf is then shown leaping from some trees as he looks fierce.
Shock Rock poses as he finishes transforming.
Sunset and the Rainbooms are shown powering up into their magic forms.
Heatblast chucks a fireball.
Ben is then shown slapping down on the Omnitrix.
The Mane 6, Spike, the royal sisters, the royal crystal family, Discord, Starlight Glimmer, Trixie and reformed Changelings, and Ben in griffon form stood together as they glared at someone as the Omnitrix boy smirked with crossed arms.
Twilight is shown fighting a giant bird monster as she uses her magic to slam it down on the ground.
Four Arms cries out as he finishes transforming.
XLR8 is shown running on top of the water.
The opening finishes up as the aliens all get sucked into the Omnitrix. Ben shows it while green rays come from it as the title appears next to him.
Ben 10: Magical Alien Summer.
In a dark, giant library, all was quiet in the darkness. Not even a peep from a single mouse. But just then, a large machine behind an upside-down horseshoe-shaped mirror starts activating as pink energy flows through it into the mirror, making XLR8 zoom out of it and through a set of double doors, speeding through a hall as he crashes through a group of ponies as he smashed through the doors that lead outside of a crystal/tree castle building.
"WHOA! Hit the brakes!" XLR8 quickly digs his heels into the ground while leaning backward, screeching to a stop outside of a village as XLR8 dusts himself off. He then looks around, amazed by the sight of no city, finding a nature-filled world. "WHOA! So, this is Equestria! It's so… old-school!" He then notices a sign next to him and reads it. "'Welcome to Ponyville.' Weird name. But then again, this is an alternate dimension. Reminds me of Canterlot City and Bellwood."
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP FLASH "Well, now that I timed out, I'll just-" He was able to take a step, only to trip on his own 2 feet and fall face 1st into the dirt. Making the boy groaned as he got up and rubbed his head in discomfort. "Oww... What was that?" But as the kid glances at his hand, he is shocked to see them become yellow eagle talons! With the Omnitrix attached to his left one like his human form. "What the?! What happened to my hands!?" He then stumbles into a puddle and looks at his reflection, only to be surprised that his head has become a bird! "AHHHH! BIRD HEAD!"
As the boy calms down, he looks at himself and sees he is now a different being altogether! He now has a white eagle head with green markings around his green eyes that are a bit more slit on the pupils. He still has his cap as it covers his now feathered hair as some of it sticks out in a shaggy fashion and has green highlights. His body is now a lion cub's lower body that is colored the same shade of brown as his human hair as he has a tail with a tuff of white on the end. He has a yellow beak. He also is wearing a black and white scarf that wraps around his neck with an Omnitrix symbol crest as a pin. But the thing that surprises him the most is the pair of bird wings on his back that are a lighter tone than his lower body.
"Holey Moley! I'm... a Griffon?!" The boy turned Griffon exclaims as he looks all over himself, only to notice the wings on the back as they start flapping as he hovers above the ground. "Wait! I got wings now and I can fly on my own?! I CAN FLY ON MY OWN!" But just as Ben took off, he crashed into a tree. He slumped down in pain and groaned out. "Note to self: Flying with wings is way harder than flying with a jetpack." As the kid recovers and shakes off the crash, he decides it would be best to just walk for now.
The boy ducks down in some bushes and sneaks into town by them, moving from shrub to shrub as he pokes his head out and looks around. "Kind of like one of those small villages in RPGs." Just then, heard voices as he followed his ears as he got closer to the castle.
"Chrysalis and the changelings are back! They pony-napped all the most powerful ponies in all Equestria!" Ben pokes his head out to see 2 ponies, one of which is Trixie's counterpart, a black bug/pony hybrid with light blue eyes, fangs, holes in its legs, and buzzing sparkly wings. But the boy was confused by what looked like a mishmash of animal body parts stuck together. "Whoa... talk about a walking zoo. Wonder if Animo made him?" The boy questions as he decides to duck down and clicks the watch, turning towards Grey Matter and transforming into him. The others didn't notice as the small alien poked his head out. "This should help me get a closer look."
He quickly made his way towards the being's tail as it leaned into the other pony's face. "They took Flutteryshy?!" "Yes!" "Where?!" "To their Hive." Grey Matter latches on the white tuff, just as the being snapped, teleporting all of them in a flash of light.
The group teleported on a cliff, wearing gear on them as the chaotic being whips his tail towards the forest, sending Grey Matter flying off as they hadn't noticed. Grey Matter screams as he lands in some bushes. "Ooohhhhh..." His cheeks puff up as he swallows his alien vomit. "Okay... Another note to self: Be more prepared when someone teleports. Well, on the bright side, I landed in this bush." He recovers and climbs his way up the leaves and branches and pokes his head out.
"I haven't walked that fair in a millennium!" The chimera pulls his eyelids in agony as the others groan at him complaining as they walk down the hill as the being follows after them. "Millennium? As in a thousand years? No Earth being can even live to that close! Unless this being is some sort of highly evolved being that makes its own laws of physics and thus, is not bound by the rules of this dimension and is much more attuned to the cosmos and created a chimera-like body to have a physical form to interact with lesser beings." Grey Matter blinked at what he had said. "Did I seriously say all that? Weird."
Grey Matter then stands and runs towards the direction the others went. He made his way to the cliff as he saw the large hive-like castle in the distance. "A giant insect castle that is similar to an ant hill and/or beehive? Now there's something you don't see every day." He glances around and sees that, in the distance, the others are halfway there. "If that's where everybody's going, count me in!" He slowly made his way down the hill and started running after them.
Ben was panting as he leaned against a rock, having timed out a few minutes ago. "Okay... Maybe running the whole way wasn't such a good idea." He took a few more deep breaths as he peeked out to see the others go into a hole. He noticed 2 of the same bug horses, only in beetle-like armor, guarding the entrance. "Those are the ugliest horses I've seen. Still going to need a find a way past the guards. Or... I can just let myself in, Four Arms style!" He grins out as he dials in the big red fighter and slaps down, only to get Lodestar, instead. "Fine... I can sneak past them." He made his way behind some other rocks, grabbing one and chucking it away as the guards were alerted and went to check it out, missing Lodestar slipping past them and into a hole as it closed.
Lodestar moves forward, only to stop and gasp as the interior of the hive, which is not only huge but also has holes that open and close a lot. "Well, guess there's no going back." He took some steps in a random direction as he tried to figure out up or down of the hive.
Just then, a buzzing sound got his attention. He glanced back and quickly ducked behind some stone pillars as a patrol flew past him. "Maybe those guys can help." He went after them, unnoticed. He kept following them until they ended up on a large spiraling staircase with many holes in the pillar. "Well, guess I'm getting closer and closer to the Bad Guy." As the patrols had all left, Lodestar was able to time out safely, making him walk up the stairs as he kept his guard up.
Ben pops his head out of a ledge to see the 2 drones heading through a big set of doors that has 6 guards in front of it. "That must be where the throne room is. Now, how am I going to get past those guards?" Ben ponders as he rubs his chin in thought. Only for his wings to flare out as he groans and stuffs them back down. He glances at the Omnitrix and finds it's charged up again. "Please give me someone useful." He pleads as he pushes on the core. FLASH
The boy's body turns into water as he becomes armored from head to toe. He spins around and blasts water out in a whip-like fashion before holding his fist out, posing.
"What was that?!" One of the guards exclaims as Overflow rocket up and glares down. "Special delivery! One instant pool party!" He exclaims as he uses his powers to create a tidal wave and wash the guards down as they scream. "Now for the rest of the hive!" He rockets upward and starts spinning fast and spraying water all over, flooding some of the holes as they wash out some Changelings.
He then notices a nearby hole and exclaims. "Secret entrance, sweet!" He went inside and ran further in, only to be surprised to be outside the hive, near the top. "WHOA! I'm out at the top!? I bet the others don't know this." He then climbs up to the point, where he sees a hole that leads inside. He glances back to see a swarm heading towards him as he quickly fires a massive stream that blasts them away and hops in, timing out as the hole closes, he looks forward and swallows, walking down the shadow-covered hallway.
The Griffon steps down the dark tunnel as he notices a light at the end and makes his way towards it, only to be stunned at seeing the pony counterparts of his friends, his aunts, a baby dragon that looks like Spike, and Trixie and strange being, hanging upside down in slime cocoons as they slept. "What the?"
"By replacing the most beloved figures in Equestria, my drones can store all that love meant for them and return them here, to me!" He glances down to see the sparkling wing Changeling being captured by a massive group of its fellow changelings. The boy then noticed a taller, female one that had a crown, bigger wings, armor on her stomach and back, and a small crown along with snake eyes the same color as her mane and tail: dark cyan blueish green.
Ben mumbles out as he watches. "That must be the leader." She sat on the throne as she continued. "Every pony will do as I say! And my subjects and will feed on their love for generations!" She starts laughing as the other hiss in agreement while Thorax looks terrified. "Oh, man! They're not just bugs! They're vampire bugs! And the watch is still recharging." He groans out as he glances at the red glowing watch.
"What if you don't have to?" "RIDICULOUS!" Ben glances back down to see the Queen toss the remaining pony away as 2 of her guards pin her as she glares down. "The hunger of Changelings can never be filled!" "Exactly! Thorax left the hive and made a friend. He shared love, and now he doesn't need to feed. You don't have to live your lives starving all the time!" Ben looks back in thought at her words. "'Starving'? That's why they're doing all of this? They're just hungry?"
But as the boy pondered, he noticed the queen was stomping towards Thorax. "The only thing Thorax has found is what happens to those who turn their back on the hive!" But as Ben shifted, he accidentally knocked over a rock, sending it clattering down to the ground as it got the room's attention. "What was that?!" The queen whirls back as she looks around, making the boy quickly run back into the tunnel as the leader notices.
Ben made his way down a tunnel turned right into another one and pressed against a pillar, catching his breath. "Okay! Stay calm... Maybe she didn't notice." He took some breaths until he heard buzzing, slowly peeking out as he saw the Queen, flying down the tunnel as she stopped and gazed around. She then went off as Ben peeks out and sighs at her being gone. "Okay. Think I lost her." He went down the same tunnel, back to the throne room.
But just then, he screeches to a stop as he sees something that puzzles him, making him back up at what looks like his reflection. They both stared at each other as he scratched his head as the other Ben did the same. They both then start doing the same thing: leaning in, narrowing their eyes, opening their beaks, and pulling their eyelids. They tapped their chin in thought as they both turned around, glancing back at each other.
Ben then went into some goofy facial expressions as the reflection matched him. He then tires open and closes his wings as the copy does the same thing as well. Ben then snaps his claws as he poses with the Omnitrix while the copy does the same. Ben clicks the button as the core pops up with a beep, only for the boy to notice the mirror's watch didn't activate. "HA! FAKE!"
Only for the other Ben to snarl as he tackles him, morphing back into the Queen. "WHO ARE YOU?!" Ben gags out as he waves in front of his face. "BLEAGH! Two words for you, garbage breath! Breath mints!" He then flapped his wings and flew up and out of Chrysalis's grasp. "And just call me the kid who's going to kick your butt! Or... Tail. Or... Wait! What am I supposed to call them?"
The Queen merely snarls as she lights her horn up in a dark green color that Ben notices and flies out of the way of an energy blast. "Looks like I'm getting better at these wings. And hey! I wasn't ready!" "I don't know who you are, or you get in my hive! But it doesn't matter, because I'll have great pleasure draining your love with your friends!" Ben noticed his watch was charged as he spoke out. "Lady, you have a sick mind, you know that?" FLASH
"And I think some shock therapy is what you need!" Shock Rock exclaims as he stretches his fist and punches the queen down the tunnel, sending her tumbling back on her throne as she recovers and notices Shock Rock was barreling down towards her with a bat, causing her to teleport away as the weapon made some cracks in the throne. The alien leaps off as the Queen narrows her eyes at him. "What kind of a changeling are you?" "One of a kind!"
She charges at him as the alien blocks with a shield, making her fly up and fire some magic blasts as Shock Rock dodges and returns fire with energy blasts. "Enough of this! Minions! Destroy this thing!" Shock Rock noticed the other bugs were swarming him as he spoke out. "Why are you letting her boss you around?" His question made them stop as they glanced at one another. "Well... she's the Queen and we always follow her lead." "I guess you make a point! And you guys got a good operation going! Too bad you're not respected at all!"
"What do you mean?" "Yeah! She does appreciate us! The Queen helps us feed! We won't be here without her." "And you all feed on love, right? Then what's so scary about trying something new? How about you do what... What's your name?" "Starlight Glimmer." "What she suggested. That whole 'sharing love thing' Unless you're all chickens?" He grins out as the changelings frown. "We're not chickens!"
Shock Rock starts acting like one to taunt the others as Chrysalis has an eyebrow raised. "I'll show you we're not chickens!" Thorax cries out as suddenly fires out rings of pink energy at the queen. It knocks the Queen onto her throne, cracking it more as she looks in disbelief. Thorax was then engulfed in pink light that started glowing brightly, making everyone shield their eyes.
There was a brief flash of white light that revealed a new Thorax. He was taller and his skin changed to a light green on the legs and head with dark green on the body. He has some orange on his neck with 3 gemstones on it. He has 2, beetle-like horns on his head with purple eyes. He has purple wing shields with a glittering tail and wings.
"This is what happens when you share love instead of taking it! You should give it to him!" The pony points at Shock Rock. "WAIT?! WHAT!?" The others do that as they did the same thing to the alien. He thought he was going to be destroyed, but only when they hit him, he suddenly felt powerful, like he was strong enough to blow up an entire state!
"YEAH!" He yells out as his body flares out with blue and pink energy and makes a giant ball of the stuff and holds it above his head as he forms a giant hammer. "HEY, QUEENY! TIME TO DROP THE HAMMER!" He rushes forward and leaps up as he pulls back as the queen leaps out of the way and swings down at the throne. "NOOOO!" BOOOM The top part of the castle exploded in a shockwave of blue and pink. The dust settled down to reveal Thorax, Shock Rock, and the pony under a magic shield that she made at the last second.
They all looked around to see all the Changelings were the same size, but were colorful and good, like Thorax. They then noticed that all the cocooned ponies were being released with bits of slime on them. The trio all smile at each other at a job well done as Shock Rock times out, stunning the other 2 as Ben acts cool. "Fluttershy?" The Chimera cries out as he hugs Pony Fluttershy, much to her delight.
Starlight went to help Pony Twilight as she asked. "Starlight? What happened?" "We defeated the Changelings without magic. They found a new leader. And the Changelings are good now. And we also met some sort of special Changeling Griffon." She explains as Thorax nods while Ben causal greets. "S'up?" Princess Twilight was surprised at the explanation. "Well done, Starlight Glimmer." Luna's pony self said as she walked up. "It seems you have learned a great deal after we last spoke…"
Just then, a crumbling sound got their attention as they saw something moving under the pile of rubble. Chrysalis rises out, all injured as she weakly had her horn glowing and hisses with bits of blue electricity coming off her, only to get a dreaded look at seeing the number of people glaring at her with horns glowing as Ben hovers and smirks with cross arms.
Starlight approaches the former Queen and talks to her. "When Twilight and her friends defeated me, I chose to run away and seek revenge! You don't have to! You can be the leader your subjects deserve." Starlight holds her hoof out to her. Chrysalis was about to shakily grab it… only to smack it away with a glare. "Spare me your nonsense! But it is not you I'm angry at!"
She stands up and shoves Starlight away as she points at the boy. "I don't know who you are, boy! But there is no amount of revenge you could ever conceive of that will come close to what I will exact upon you one day!" "Sheesh... Do you ever stop talking or do you like to hear yourself blab on and on?" She growls with a twitching eye then suddenly tackles the kid as they both struggle in the air as Chrysalis tries to pull at the Omnitrix!
"I may not know much, but I do know this gizmo is the source of your power! Let's see how you like it when you're weak and vulnerable, brat!" "You're the stupid one, bug brain! It doesn't come off!" Just then, the Omnitrix beeps as it turns green and starts surging out energy. The Changeling is confused as her magic is active. The energy kept building until it sent out a shockwave that knocked Ben back as he tumbled in the air and managed to recover before hitting the ground. But Chrysalis wasn't so lucky as she screamed as she was blasted off to the horizon.
"Weird... Well, she won't be bothering anyone for a while." Ben comments as Twilight puts a hoof over Starlight's shoulder in comfort. "Thorax, as the new leader of the changelings, I look forward to discussing how we can improve our relationship in the future. However, for the moment, perhaps it is best that we leave the Changeling Kingdom to the changelings." Celestia said as she approached Twilight. POOF "Splendid idea! Now who's ready for some celebratory tea at Fluttershy's?!" The chimera guy said as he curled around Fluttershy. "OH! Uh, everypony?" Starlight walks up as she suggests something else. "Now that you can snap your claws and send us anywhere again, I think I have a better option."
At a small village in the middle of nowhere, the ponies were putting up decorations for a festival as Starlight approached them. After some words were exchanged and greeted, she along with 4 other ponies left off as the others followed along with Ben as well. As the boy was sitting by the pony Rainbooms, a scream caught their attention as they glanced to see Trixie on a flying pig passing by them with the animal guy, whom Ben learned was named Discord, following behind. "Flying pigs. Sunset Shimmer is never going to believe this." "Wait! Sunset Shimmer? How do you know her?" Ben smirks as he kicks his feet up and leans back as he flies above. "Well... If you want me to tell my awesome origin story, then okay." "Why do I have the feeling this fella is like another Rainbow Dash?" Applejack groans out.
"YYAAAHHH! OOOOFFFF!" Ben fell to the ground as the portal spat him out. "Ugg… Note to self: Next visit, talk to Princess Twilight about installing mattresses on each end of the landings." He stands up and dusts himself. "Well, that was intense and pretty cool! And even sweeter than I was a Griffon with wings! How wild is that? And I made sure I got back in time before anyone noticed." He walked a few steps, only to bump into something. He looks to see a familiar pair of pants with high-heeled black boots, one of them tapping the ground. He looks up to see a glaring Sunset with her arms crossed. He then notices 2 people on the steps and looks behind her to see his aunts in silent anger. Luna had her arms crossed while Celestia had her hands on her hips.
"Anything you have to say about yourself, young man?" Ben looks up in silent terror and squeaks out. "Ummm… Busted?" "In my office, now!" The older sister said as they headed inside. Ben groans out, realizing that he is in big trouble. But as he went up the steps, he stopped and looked back at the mirror, smiling at a new world of adventure and friends. He walks in, knowing that he'll see his new friends soon.
