Opening File: Plumbers
The Plumbers are an intergalactic law-enforcement organization that makes use of many high-tech gadgets and weapons to protect the planets in the universe from various alien threats and attacks. The Plumbers were first established by the Founding Fathers in the 1700's. George Washington was one of the first members. They were created to fix 'leaks' in the normal everyday world like aliens, monsters and ghosts.
They were originally called the Plumbiers, before they disbanded as Earth joined with the intergalactic authorities. The organization was shut down and all their operations were taken over. Though they fight the supernatural, Plumbier technology can fight on par against alien technology despite first alien contact only occurring in the 18th century. Operating in secret, the Plumbers took on anything too tough or weird for normal law enforcement to handle.
Their main adversary was the alien warlord, Vilgax. Max Tennyson was a member of the Plumbers in his youth and was ultimately the one who defeated Vilgax. Most of the Plumbers eventually disbanded; however, a few of its members (like Max and his relatives) remain in a semi-active capacity. Max is effectively forced out of retirement after his grandson, Ben Tennyson obtained the Omnitrix.
Max used his experience as a Plumber (along with various Plumber gear and weapons) to aid Ben in various battles along the road. The Plumbers' main base is located inside of Mt. Rushmore, where the Null Void projector and the Sub Energy are stored. There are also bases located within Fort Knox and the Seattle Space Needle, and a map detailing the location of all the Plumber bases in USA reveals there is at least one per state. There is at least one base built into every major military base in the country.
Plumbers possess special badges that bear the intergalactic peace symbol.

Opening File: Sectors of GrimmFall
The city of GrimmFall is divided between the Suburbs and Downtown. The urban area of GrimmFall, Downtown contains towers, gardens, parks and other features one would normally find in a large city. Among the many locations there is also City Hall where the office of the city's mayor Phil Ken Sebben is located. The Suburbs are a typical suburban residential area in GrimmFall.
GrimmFall is protected by not only local Hunters and Heroes but also by a special defense force assigned to almost all cities known as the Enforcers, led by Chief Fizz. They are based in the City Station, where the majority of their armory is stockpiled. GrimmFall has had its share of conflicts over the years with Grimm, supervillains and extraterrestrial threats.

"Indoor plumbing is perhaps the greatest invention to this day, next to electricity. It really makes thing convenient for people and to does away with things like the outhouse which tend to be very stinky after use. Perhaps we don't give our plumbers as much credit as they deserve for they are the reason the plumbing is kept working in our houses and not flooding them with wet disgusting waste." TOM lectured as the file closed. "Well, hats off to the plumbers because while police serve and protect and firefighters keep us safe from fires spreading it's the plumbers who keep our homes livable."

"Man, this world has some bizarre shows for hunters." Superboy commented.
After recovering from his spar with North he decided to check what was on the TV, and so far he saw some news reports about Grimm attacks, news of heroes and huntsmen activities but what caught his attention were the sports they have consisting of tournaments and races like the famous one called 'Wacky Races'. Strange name but the episodes they recorded for him to check out showed racers and huntsmen with amazing abilities. Sitting beside him were Yara with a bowl full of popcorn and T-Bone who scooped a handful watching with them.
"Well the governments sponsored them to help improve the skills and abilities of future huntsmen. But also make some entertainments to inspire many of what they can do." Ross explained to him since none of this existed in his world.
"Plus, there are places like Motorcity where the best of the best come to test their skills." Yara added.
"Take our word for advice, kid. Always be prepared for the unexpected." The Swat Kat pilot told him with Yara nodded.
"Totally, a lot of things going on from my home town since I left to join the team. Like that new team calling themselves Big Hero 6."
Capital G nodded. "Seems like we're getting new heroes and villains alike everywhere these days."
While watching the latest race, he was starting to become interested in knowing the things about this place and started taking some notes from his spar to figure out what happened in the match since he was almost beaten up roughly. What took him by surprise was the battle with a trio of bikers, more drivers and a... Giant robot? "Ok... Now this just got weirder."
"Yeah, should've seen what happened on last thanksgiving when what some bizarre floats turned monsters and attacked. The public thought to have been Grimm attacks fortunately to avoid the panic." Capital G explained as he sees the even more on the screen. "From what happened some sort of villain tried to sabotage the race to cause havoc, not sure why but luckily it was averted." But then he shuddered and sighed, which didn't go unnoticed to the others present in the room.
"Something up?" T-Bone asked him.
"Let's just say something we dare not want to bring up, but don't mention anything to the Major." Never wanted to bring up the part about them making wagers on chores, but since Krunk and Miss Spell won after Penelope Pitstop won the race... They had to do his dirty washing which was like a nightmare to Major Glory who was…In a way of a neat freak.
The scene showed police officers dragging what looked like a guy with long orange hair with a muzzle and straight jacket. "That's the guy? Man, he looks like a sci-fi cosplay reject."
"Hmm, wouldn't think so little of him from what I heard." Capital G told him after hearing about the villain's abilities and associated with the Fallen and the League of super villains.
"Plus, you should check out the vids of the battle against a gold guy who tried to steal all the worlds gold until he was defeated by this new superhero." Yara said, she tried to recall the name of the girl with awesome powers, but already gotten a fan base for her deeds for saving many people.
"Really?" Conner asked when suddenly Erika burst in.
"Erika, what's wrong?" Ross asked, seeing the urgent look on his teammate's face.
"Van Rook has a lead on the Hidden World." Erika answered.
That caused a reaction to both members of Team REYN and Capital G as they shot up and with alarmed looks on their faces.
"What?!" Yara exclaimed.
Superboy was confused but remained silent, opting to just listen.
"How?" Ross asked. "Your tribe eliminated any evidence left behind long ago."
"He bribed Bertha the Barbarian for the coordinates to the original island of Berk." Erika answered, narrowing her eyes. "Bertha's tribe lived out on what used to be called Outcast Island and are descended from outcasts who were exiled by the original Vikings who inhabited Berk. I've mentioned before that Bertha's ancestors were Dragon Hunters. Well, even long after they've disappeared I am not surprised that the so-called Barbarian would have a few clues as to where one might find the way to the Hidden World."
"Then we better move." Ross suggested, looking to Superboy. "We were planning to help you get back to your world but if you haven't heard we have a problem to sort out."
"If it's all the same to you I'd like to come along and I am sure Artemis would too." Superboy replied. "We don't exactly like sitting around and waiting."
Ross considered the offer and nodded. "All right. I suppose you'll need all the experience here you can get. Tell your friend to meet us at Erika's airship."
"We are leaving in exactly three minutes. Not a second longer." Erika stated seriously.
Good thing Superboy believed her.

"To think that out of all the obstacles keeping me from the Omnitrix it was a mere child. A child that carries the blood of Tennyson but a child nonetheless."
When Ben's eyes opened he was greeted to the intimidating figure of Vilgax standing before him, glaring at him with hateful red eyes. "Vilgax…"
"You share your grandfather's talent for stating the obvious, boy." Vilgax said dryly, glaring at the boy held in a special containment field. "Max Tennyson, allowing his own grandson to use the Omnitrix as a play toy."
"Hey! I've saved a lot of people with this!" Ben argued.
"And you have barely scratched the true potential of the devise attached to your wrist." Vilgax leaned forward, coming so close to Ben that he could see his own reflection in the warlord's eyes. "Picture an entire army, each in command of an Omnitrix, all at my command."
Ben's eyes widened as Vilgax paused, both of them imagining such an army at the tyrant's command.
"I will be invincible…I will rule the universe! And the only thing standing between me and my destiny is…you." Vilgax stood up straight as the doors opened and in walked Psyphon. "Psyphon, status report."
"The Omnitrix's security measures are difficult to penetrate my lord. The danger lies in the fact that we attempt to override the security or forcefully remove it from the boy would activate the Omnitrix's self-destruct sequence." Psyphon explained, bowing his head. "I dare not risk pushing further and risk destroying your prize. At least not without the security code to remove it."
Vilgax narrowed his eyes as he looked back at Ben. "I doubt the child knows the code, even if Tennyson suspected as much."
"A thousand apologies, Lord Vilgax. I will look for any other possible solutions to removing the Omnitrix." Psyphon fell to his knees.
"Don't bother." Vilgax turned away from Ben. "Instead of risking the Omnitrix's destruction we will retrieve the code from the one person who would know."
"Who would that be?" Psyphon asked as he stood up.
"Max Tennyson."
Xxx
As soon as Ben went missing Max Tennyson had an idea of who was responsible and it didn't take long to verify it through the numerous videos placed on the Sky Web.
"So what do we do? How can we save Ben when we don't ever know where Vilgax is?" Gwen asked, shaking slightly as she feared what Vilgax was doing to her cousin.
"There is one way." Max said, adjusting the computer that had been hidden under the dashboard. "The Omnitrix has a built in homing beacon designed if anyone tries to remove it from Ben's wrist or bypass the security system."
The screen showed a green hourglass symbol that was seen on the Omnitrix when Ben was in alien form.
"That's under Bellwood!" Gwen exclaimed when she saw the coordinates.
"Then we're heading back." Max narrowed his eyes as he typed on his computer. "You two might want to sit down for this."
Gwen and Julie shared looks before rushing to their seats and buckling in. Max pressed down on a switch and up ahead a swirling vortex of energy appeared which he drove right in, pressing his foot down on the accelerator. As the large vehicle entered the portal, the passenger never noticed the two shadowy figures hanging onto the vehicle by its underbelly.
Xxx
Just as Vilgax was near the door there was a blast of light, near Ben and from it came the Rustbucket that shot out and slammed right into Vilgax who was too stunned to move away in time.
CRASH!
"LORD VILGAX!" Psyphon screamed out as Vilgax slammed into the wall.
Max immediately rushed out of the Rustbucket, using his Omni-Step to appear next to Ben and release him from the containment field. "We're here, Ben!"
"Grandpa!" Ben said happily, landing on his feet. "How did you find me?"
"We had a little help." Max pointed to the Omnitrix that was thankfully still attached to Ben's wrist. "And luckily, we made it in time."
"RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Gwen and Julie managed to jump out of the Rustbucket in time as Vilgax kicked it away. He got to his feet and looked at the Tennysons and their friend with red blazing eyes, matching the fury of a thousand suns. "Impossible! My base is completely undetectable!"
"Not as undetectable as you think." Max retorted, pulling out his cannon that was keyed to Vilgax's bio-signature. "Keep your claws off my grandson, Vilgax. You'll never get near him as long as I live!"
"Your proposal is acceptable." Vilgax flexed his arms as the cylinders attached to them started to glow, pumping the super serum into his body.
The red veins in his arms began to grow as his muscles grew even bigger and Aura flared as it was enhanced a dozen times. Max immediately fired his blaster but Vilgax didn't seem to even feel them as he stomped forward. His eyes blazed and fired twin beams of red light that hit Max's blaster, incinerating it on contact.
"Your weapon will never harm me again, Tennyson." Vilgax slowly approached the Tennysons. "In fact, none of you will ever harm me again."
"Luckily I had a backup plan." Max said, tapping a wrist device.
A portal appeared underneath them and they fell into it.
"NO!" Vilgax shouted, jumping after them and was fast enough to enter the portal before it vanished.
"I must get help!" Psyphon rushed out of the room.
Once he was gone, a pair of shadows slipped out from under the Rustbucket.
"It seems there is a problem we cannot deny." One whispered.
"If we are not fast enough, the Fire Elemental will surely die." The other whispered back in agreement.
And they had an idea of what to do as they looked at the Rustbucket.
"A way to follow this could be."
"But first, eliminate a problem we both see."

"Our master has gone after the Omnitrix." Psyphon said, entering the command center of the Flame Keepers' Circle. "Locate him and send his coordinates. I will assemble Team MSKR to assist Lord Vilgax."
"We have already located Diagon." Edwards pointed to the wall screen, showing a map of the world and Vilgax's location. "He is in GrimmFall."
"Then GrimmFall is where we are going."
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
Before Psyphon could even wonder what was happening next the entire base was rocked by a series of explosions.
Edwards ran to the nearest intercom. "What is going on?!"
"Sir, an unknown enemy has somehow breached our security."
"Who?!"
"We don't know! They were too fast to-AHH!"
BANG!
BANG!
"Security systems off line!" A nearby technician reported.
Before Psyphon or Edwards could say anything else the door behind them exploded. Both spun around, spotting two shadowy figures dash through the smoke at amazing speed. One leapt up, revealing themselves to be a cat like Mobian with a grin. Just as Psyphon or Edwards prepared for a fight the Mobian cackled as from him came a blast of blinding light that blinded everyone in the room.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
The second Mobian was a white furred one who leapt onto the walls, the floor and the ceiling and from each spot he landed on a bomb was left that exploded seconds later.
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
As soon as the two Mobians vanished the entire command center was buried in rubble along with the rest of the base.

"And that's the whole story, Mama."
Johnny was with his mother in GrimmFall Park, explaining to her what had happened ever since he ended up in Beach City to picking Mjolnir. Deciding they needed to be alone for this, Rossweisse remained at the Hall of Heroes to give the mother and son a chance to talk alone.
"Well, it seems my boy has quite the adventure." Bunny Bravo said, watching the park from the bench she and her son sat on.
"Yeah, Mama. I really didn't mean to make you worry. I just wanted to…keep you safe." Johnny awkwardly rubbed his knees.
"Oh Johnny." Bunny took her son's hand and held it with both of hers. "I am glad you've been helping everyone. I couldn't be prouder of you for that."
"So, what do we do now?" Johnny held up Mjolnir. "I mean, now that I'm Thor. Ross…wise said I'd need to go on a quest or something like that to get the handle of this."
"Hmm…Well, you were already on a quest with Pops and Carl. Pops still needs a couple more weeks to finish fixing his restaurant." Bunny said, rubbing her chin. "We'll need to speak with Miss Rossweisse before I-"
Before she could say anything else there was a blast of light in the middle of the park, forming into a green vortex of swirling energy.
"WHOA!"
The Tennysons and Julie fell out of the portal, followed by Vilgax who created a crater with his landing. The tyrant stood up, flexing his muscles as his eyes landed on his prey. "NO ONE ESCAPES FROM ME!"
"Hey!" Johnny stood up and pointed at Vilgax. "That's the squid guy from Beach City! He was picking on those kids, Mama!"
"Was he?" Bunny asked, standing up and cracking her knuckles. "Obviously he hasn't learned his lesson yet. Johnny, let's teach him some manners."
"You got it, Mama!" Johnny raised Mjolnir, creating several sparks of lightning that caused everyone to stop and look at him.
"Is that Johnny?" Gwen asked, recognizing the blond guy from Beach City. "Wait, we're in GrimmFall?"
"I figured GrimmFall would be the best place to reach. We'll have plenty of help here." Max explained. "Vilgax is too powerful for us to take on alone. He's so much stronger than before I am not sure anyone else on Earth can fight him alone."
"Maybe not but he's not getting me without a fight." Ben said, slamming his hand down onto Omnitrix and in a flash of light, Diamondhead stood in his place. "Special Delivery!"
He charged forward, firing a barrage of diamond shards at Vilgax but his shards shattered on impact with the tyrant's armor. Diamondhead then turned his arms into sharp blades and punched Vilgax in the leg with him several times but with each hit they cracked and shattered into nothing but stumps.
Diamondhead stepped back, looking at his arms. "Oh man. Should have seen this coming."
Vilgax then grabbed Diamondhead and slammed him into the ground, forming a crater and when the dust cleared the crystalline alien was down with cracks forming across his body.
"BEN!" Gwen shouted, wishing she could help but could do nothing against Vilgax.
Max attempted to rescue his grandson but Vilgax fired his eyebeams at Gwen, forcing Max to use his Omni-Step to save her and get her away from the battle. Vilgax then raised his fist to finish Diamondhead off but before he brought it down something shot at him faster than the human eye could ever see and sent the tyrant flying back. It was none other than Johnny, having thrown Mjolnir and upon hitting Vilgax in the chest it released a lightning explosion.
"Dang! I didn't go for the head again!" Johnny smacked himself in the face as the hammer flew back into his hand.
For a second there was silence…
"RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Vilgax shot up, Aura flaring and eyes blazing as he then fired his eye beams at Johnny who quickly jumped out of the way.
"I AM GETTING TIRED OF THESE INTERFERENCES!" Vilgax shouted, his rage reaching its limit.
Johnny quickly spun his hammer, summoning a dozen lightning bolts down on Vilgax who raised his Shield of Ziegal, easily blocking the lightning.
"NO MORE DISTRACTIONS!" Vilgax bellowed, shooting forward and backhanded Johnny, sending him flying and crashing into a nearby tower. "NO MORE OBSTACLES! AND NO MORE-GAH!"
Suddenly a purple blur shot forward and slugged Vilgax in the face, halting his angry rant.
"NO ONE HURTS MY BOY!"
Bunny Bravo, relying on her Semblance that allowed her to run at high speed, delivered an onslaught of blows all over Vilgax's body. She even pulled on the tentacles on his chin, making him stagger back and cry out from the sudden pain of feeling his tentacles being pulled. Bunny Bravo was a highly skilled Huntress, long before she had given birth to Johnny and had kept her skills sharp even then.
And it showed as she mercilessly attacked Vilgax.
PUNCH!
KICK!
THWACK!
OW MY THORAX!
Vilgax finally seemed to reach his breaking point as he regained his balance. "ENOUGH!"
He clapped his hands, creating a powerful shockwave that sent Bunny flying back and crashing into the ground. Vilgax then slowly stomped towards the downed Huntress, raising his foot to finish her off…
Just as Johnny climbed out of the hole in the tower he had made and saw the alien about to step on his mother.
"MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
In that one single second, the clouds darkened and Johnny spun Mjolnir in his hand, using it to propel him at Vilgax like a meteor. Vilgax looked up and raised his shield to block but the sheer speed and strength from Johnny's hammer caught even him by surprise. Vilgax was knocked off his feet and skidded through the park, eventually finally stopping. Dropping the shield Vilgax rolled away as Johnny swung Mjolnir down onto his head.
Pulling his sword out Vilgax swung it at Johnny who shocked him by not only blocking with his hammer but was strong enough to stay on his feet and keep Vilgax's sword.
"NO."
Johnny pushed the sword back.
"ONE."
He shoved it aside.
"HURTS!"
He swung up and uppercut Vilgax with the hammer.
"MY!"
He then slammed the hammer into Vilgax's chest, sending him crashing into the ground.
"MAMA!"
Johnny then raised his hammer, summoning a massive storm and brought a giant bolt of lightning on Vilgax who howled in pain as endless volts of electricity blasted through his body. The attack was strong enough to even scorch the ground. When the attack finally ended and Vilgax was able to rise he found himself facing down the lightning wreathed figure of Johnny, whose sun glasses had fallen off to reveal his eyes glowing brightly, energy crackling around them as he snarled and flung Mjolnir at the conqueror once again.
Before this blow could land Vilgax lunged forward, stepping close enough to reach down and grab Johnny by his wrist. Using his own momentum against him, Vilgax spun around and flung Johnny through the air, sending him crashing through several trees.
"No more…distractions!" Vilgax looked around wildly. "TENNYSON! Come out!"
Nearby, Ben had resumed his human form and was frantically tapping on the Omnitrix. "Worst timing ever." He repeated over and over under his breath. "Come on!"
The tree that he hid behind suddenly shifted, being pulled free of the grounds, roots and all by Vilgax and tossed aside.
"Leave him alone!" Julie shouted, flames bursting to life around her.
She released a stream of fire at Vilgax who blocked with his shield and then backhanded her, sending her flying away and crashing into the ground.
"No more defenders left, boy." He growled and reached down towards Ben. "The Omnitrix is MINE-"
A savage roar from above made both of them look up as Johnny, pulled into the air by Mjolnir, dove down towards them. Vilgax snatched Ben's arm around the wrist and made to pull him into Johnny's path- a last ditch attempt at deterring the berserker, but was too slow. Mjolnir crashed down into the conqueror's arm…and in an explosion of light and sound that flung Ben back, ripped through the armored limb.
Vilgax howled in agony, staggering back as Johnny tugged Mjolnir out of the miniature crater which he'd made.
"And let that be a lesson to you, you squid faced punk!" Johnny pointed at Vilgax. "Now are you gonna get smart and get gone or is Johnny gonna have to wail on you some more?"
"Oh…you've managed to annoy me far more than any foe I've ever faced." Vilgax rasped, cradling the stump of his severed arm to his chest. "But now, puny human…it ends."
Within his armored suit, concealed stashes of Vilgax's serum were emptied out through small syringes laced throughout the interior, injecting it straight into his body. The effects were immediate, with Vilgax's aura flaring up brightly and his muscles visibly bulging out from beneath his armor.
Johnny actually took a step back as Vilgax appeared to grow in size, standing almost twice as high as before by the time the transformation had ended. "Um…bummer."
Vilgax cackled. "It ends now!" He raised both arms up overhead, hands clenched together. "First you, and then all of your irksome little…" He trailed off as a shadow slowly expanded over both himself and Johnny. "…planet?"
Glancing up, both of them could see a great silhouette partly blocking out the sun. Before Vilgax could even react he was slugged in the face by Major Glory, leaving him in a daze and completely open to attack.
"Uh, yeah." Capital G knelt down and, with ease, pinched Vilgax's upper body between his index finger and thumb. "Not happening, pal."
"What?! Put me down! I will not be handled like some-"
"Fastball!" Capital G smirked.
"…fast ball?" Vilgax blinked before the enlarged superhero wound up and then flung the alien warlord with such strength that he was sent flying over the distant horizon.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Capital G then flung Major Glory after Vilgax, the strength of his throw combining with the major's speed to reach Vilgax.
"Now…Get off our planet!" Major Glory inhaled and blew, firing an intense blast of wind that upon slamming into Vilgax sent him flying even further to the point he was blasted right out of Earth's atmosphere.
In addition to being blasted off Earth, Major Glory's arctic breath froze him in solid ice that remained ever after he was blown into space.
"Wow…" Ben watched as the Justice Friends sent Vilgax over the horizon.
"You think he's gone this time?" Gwen asked as she and Max approached Ben to help him and Julie up.
"He's survived a lot over the years but with him thrown off planet like this he might be gone for a while." Max answered, helping Ben to his feet.
"MAMA! "In the meantime Johnny rushed over to his mother and helped her up. "Are you okay?!"
"I'm all right, sweetie." Bunny smiled and patted her son on the cheek. "Thank you. You were so brave and strong."
"Aw…Thanks, Mama." Johnny said with a happy smile.
"Maybe you're ready for this quest but let's talk more at home and bring Rossweisse along. I have to speak with her."
"Got it, Mama."
Nearby a portal opened and two figures landed in the bushes, sinking into the shadows.
"There she is."
"The Fire Elemental."
"Within our sight."
"Truly could not be a better night."
"And yet, in the enemy's land."
"So close to our hand."
"We must ask for a way."
"Do nothing without the master's say."
I and Am vanished into shadows beneath them, their azure eyes remaining for a second before vanishing from sight, ensuring there was no way to detect them.
