Jen pov
I hummed as I sat in my class waiting for the final bell to ring. I sighed and rested my head on my desk and formed a nest with my arms, I was so bored. "Past, Jenny Bean?" I sat up and turned to look behind me, "Don't Call me Jenny Bean, what do you want Cash?" I asked.Cash smiled at me "Wanna hang out with me and J.T. after school?" he asked me with a faint blush. I frowned, this guy really got on my nerves, he probably just wanted help with his summer school work. "Sorry can't, I am going on a trip with my grandpa for the summer," I said and laid my head back down. I heard Cash mumble something and then start messing with my hair.'ugh,' I flicked my eyes up to the clock and saw there were still five minutes to go. 'I can not handle five more minutes of this.' I thought and slide my hands under my desk. The sleeves of my body suit became covered in blue lines, a blue translucent screen then appeared before me. I smirked and tapped away at the screen, then to everyone's surprise the bell began to ring. Kids didn't question it and began to file out of their classes, I stood up and tried to do the same, but my teacher stopped me."Jenny, do you want to move ahead to sixth grade?" she asked me. I wasn't surprised by this question, this was exactly the 15th time I was asked this question. My answer was always no, but I knew they would keep asking next year, so I simply said yes. My teacher smiled at me "Wonderful, I'll get all the paperwork sorted out, you go and enjoy your summer." I nodded and left the class. Yeah, this is a regular for me, I'm Jenny Tennyson, a ten-year-old genius, super advanced, and super alone.
"Why do you look so sad Jen?" a small robotic voice asked me as I walked. Ok, scratch the super alone part, I'm only kinda alone. I sighed and opened my messenger bag, inside was a small robot he had a baseball-sized body, golf ball-sized head, one small blue eye, and he was painted black with green digital lines. This is Bleep, he is my best friend, actually my only friend. "You know what," I said and he knew it.
"Jen, there is nothing wrong with being smarter than everyone else," he said. I sighed, "That's easy for you to say." I could hear Bleep sigh and shift in my bag. "Bleep, I'm just so advanced, and it makes me feel singled out and isolated from others," I said and pushed the exit doors open. "I understand Jen," Bleep said and it made me smile. "Thanks, Bleep," I said and sat down to wait for my grandpa.
While I waited I pulled up my screen again. I tapped on the creation folder and it pulled up hundreds of finished and unfinished builds. I clicked on a design for a digital hoverboard and began to work on it. As I worked a listened to everything around me it was mostly quiet, but I felt a strange presence.
"Someone help me!" never mind it was just Jamie. I left my spot and followed the cries and soon found Jamie, the poor guy was hanging in a tree by his underwear. I sighed and approached the tree, once I was close enough I materialized steps. There were simple small blue squares, but they had plenty of uses. "Hold still," I said and created a platform under Jamie. "Waahh!" Jamie landed on the platform and I then made everything vanish.
I walked away not bothering to stay and get thanked. "So, who was it this time?" Bleep asked rolling out of my bag. "Jamie," I simply stated and then saw my grandpa turn the corner in his RV. I put Bleep back in my bag and put it over my shoulder. Once the RV stopped I got on "Hi Grandpa, Hi Gwen." I said but then did a double take.
"What are you doing here? What is she doing here?" I asked and Gwen rolled her eyes. "Chill out mega geek, this wasn't my idea Grandpa convinced my mom that a summer of camping would be good for me. " my cousin stated and I felt defeated. "Well, this is a disaster," Bleep said and I quickly pulled him from my bag. Gwen rolled her eyes again, I did the same and went to sit in the passenger seat.
I pulled my screen up and went to the creation folder. I clicked on the file for advanced headphones, a bunch of tiny blue squares formed creating the headphones. Once they were complete I connected them to my screen and turned on Sabrina Carpenter, then went back to work on my hoverboard.

"Chow time" my grandpa called and set a bowl down in front of me and Gwen. "Umm, what is it?" Gwen asked with a face full of disgust. "There mill worms, people eat them in certain places," I said and Gwen looked like she was gonna vomit.
"Grandpa, can we just have a burger or something?" I asked with a hopeful smile. My grandpa chuckled "Nonsense, this summer is gonna be an adventure for your taste buds." he said and went back to the RV. I groaned and looked at Gwen, she looked sick. I sighed and pulled up my screen and went to the inventory. "What are you doing?" Gwen asked "I can digitize regular objects and store them like in a video game, here." a bag of chips materialized and I handed them to Gwen. "Show off," Gwen said and began to eat while avoiding eye contact.
"This summer is gonna be a nightmare," I said looking away and Gwen frowned at me. "If you hate being here so much why not use your fancy tech and go home?" Gwen asked, I frowned "Because Grandpa really wanted to spend the summer with me, I can't just leave." I said and stood to my feet. "Another thing, how about instead of being jealous of my smarts, you grow some brains and get some of your own," I said then walked away and sat on a log.
"That was kinda cold." Bleep came rolling up and took the spot beside me. I pulled up my screen and began to play sumo slammers "I know, but she started it." I said. Bleep stayed silent for a few moments, "Why do you hate Gwen?" "Bleep power down." there was a beep and Bleep shut down. He was my best friend, but even he could get on my nerves even if he was just asking questions or trying to help.

I stomped through the forest, Jen put me in an awful mood. Why did I have to be drug along on this stupid trip? I had my entire summer planned, I made color-coded graphs for crying out loud. Next thing I am being sent off with my grandpa and cousin.
I sighed and looked up at the sky, when I did my eyes widened. "Wow, a shooting star!" I exclaimed. I was about to make a wish, but the star changed direction, it was headed right for me. "Oh-No!" I turned and started to run. "AHHH!" the star hit the ground and I was sent flying. My body slide across the ground and I hit a tree.
"Ugh, this is the worst day ever," I muttered and stood to my feet. I slowly approached the crater and saw it was some kind of pod. I started and then the ground beneath me gave way. "Ah!" I fell into the crater and knocked into the pod. There was a faint hiss and it opened, I scooted back and half expected something to jump out at me.
Nothing happened, I cautiously stood to my feet and peered into the pod. "What the heck?" inside was a circular green and black plate, with an hourglass symbol. I looked around and then smiled to myself"Let's take a closer look." I said and reached for the device. I was about to grab it when it suddenly jumped onto my chest. Grey straps shot out and wrapped around forming a harness and keeping the device on me.
"Ahh, Get off me Get off me!!" I cried trying to remove the device. Instead of coming off the device beeped and the ring popped up. "What?" I asked becoming very curious again. "Incorrect DNA match." a robotic voice said, the device began to beep and I became panicked.
"I need to get back to Grandpa." I quickly pulled myself from the crater and started running. My body felt extremely sore most likely from the rough treatment it just went through. However, I was scared so I pushed myself to run as fast as possible.
The device started beeping faster and I panicked even more. "GRANDPA!!" I screamed when I saw the campfire in the distance. I jumped through the trees and Grandpa went wide-eyed. "Gwen, where did you get that thing?" he asked pointing to the device on my chest.
"What's going on?" Jen came out of the RV, but her bandana and t-shirt were gone. "DNA match found." the robotic voice said and the device let me go. "Jen, look out!" Grandpa called, but it was too late. The device jumped on Jen knocking her down. "No," Grandpa whispered and grew extremely pale.

Everything was really quiet, Gwen told us what happened and Grandpa went to check out the crash site. I stood in the bathroom checking out the device in the mirror. "What is this thing?" I pondered and noticed it had a button. "Hmm, nothing ventured nothing gained." I pressed the button, the device beeped and showed a silhouette.
I stared in awe and examined the image, it looked like it had a pointed head and a jagged body. "Jen?" Grandpa's voice came through the door and pulled me from my thoughts. "Just a second," I called and grabbed my t-shirt, I slipped it on and covered the device. I tied my bandana in its usual spot and exited the bathroom.
"Jen, you can't use that device," Grandpa said before I even got a chance to sit down. "Huh, but why?" I asked, Grandpa, sighed he looked so pale and tired "It isn't from this world Jen, Do Not use it." he said sternly. I furrowed my brow and was about to argue, but the radio interrupted me.
"Hello, somebody we need help, we're under attack by, Well by robots!" the man exclaimed. I looked at the radio, my grandpa looked at me, and Gwen looked between us. "Sorry Grandpa," I rushed out of the RV and to the campsite where a huge robot was attacking. I placed my hand over my shirt and felt the device "Let's see what you can do." I said and pressed down. There was a bright flash and once it faded I examined myself in awe.
I turned into some kind of alien made of rock. My body was covered by a green and black body suit and my bandana was still tied in place. The device was still on my chest but it seemed to merge with my body. "Wow, now this is cool," I said and turned my hands into blades. I turned my attention to the robot and fired a shot to get its attention.
The robot turned and seemed to examine me, I smiled and examined him as well. Blue lines covered my suit and a blue visor spread across my eyes, I was able to see all the weak points of the robot. "You are so done," I said and charged at the robot. The metal moron fired lasers at me, but I easily reflected them back at him. I created steps and ran up and jumped onto the robot's head. With one quick slice, he was decapitated and went crashing to the ground. Once he was down I examine him again and smiled to myself.
I ransacked the robot and took various parts, Cables, chips, and other things. I digitized them and put them in my inventory they could be useful in the future, the near future. Just then Grandpa pulled up and he looked furious. I groaned and boarded the RV ready for whatever was to come.

I and Gwen were busy loading the RV, but Jen was nowhere to be seen. "Where is your cousin?" I asked Gwen, but she just shrugged "I haven't seen her since breakfast." She said. I frowned, 'What if she is using the Omnitrix again?' I pondered.
"Coming through!" just then a blue and black blur shot past covering me and Gwen in a cloud of dust. Once the dust cleared I locked eyes with a blue and black lizard wearing a black and green body suit. "Jen," I said sternly knowing it was my granddaughter. Jen sighed and pulled up her screen, it showed the Omnitrix symbol, and besides, I was a list of names, various turn combinations, and other things.
Jen pressed the symbol and she returned to her human form. "Wow, how did you do that?" Gwen asked while she started at Jen in awe. Jen smirked and turned to face away from us, she then lifted her t-shirt to reveal an oval-shaped object attached to the back of the Omnitrix. "Check it, I and Bleep stayed up and built a connector. It links to my tech and then the cables attach the device and I can control it from my screen." Jen said.
I sighed "Jen, I told you not to use that thing." I said. Jen frowned "Yeah, but you still haven't told me why." Jen said crossing her arms. "It doesn't matter why, I am the adult you have to listen to me," I said and Jen furrowed her brow. Jen walked into the RV and I could feel trouble brewing.
