Hello my fellow readers, writers, and people who have been enjoying this story so far, I'm back with another new chapter. In this chapter we're going to be covering the events of the episode I believe is called where the magic happens however don't quote me on that. I've been looking forward to this for a while however I have been getting distracted quite easily (damn my short attention span).
Anyway, I can't think of anything else to add but If I do it'll be in another author's note at the end of the story and all that good stuff. So now on with the show.
"Talking"
"Thought"
"Yelling"
(mystic planet, mystic pathway)
We see a group of 9 people running after a familiar figure who is way too tall and is essentially an amalgam of various aliens from the universe. After a moment the figure stops and says something in a different language and the door opened for him. A bright pink glow emanated from the doorway and Gwen and the 6 people from planet earthland stopped for a moment while shielding their eyes from the glow while releasing a grunt of pain.
When Ben and Kevin looked back at them concerned Gwen said "keep going if he goes through the door we'll never find him again." Ben and Kevin ran forward but too late because just as they got to the top of staircase the door started to close only showing Aggregor's grinning face. As it closed Ben and Kevin were standing in front of it punching it and Gwen said "that's not going to work it's the door to anywhere you can't break your way through it."
Ben then transformed back into his human form and then said "okay so how are we supposed to go after Aggregor" and Gwen said "when he spoke the name of where he was going symbols appeared on top of the door does anyone remember them." Mira said "I do" and Gwen said "okay were you able to read it" and Mira said "no but I can write them down for you."
Mira pulled something that looked similar to a pen from her pocket and wrote the symbols in the air and Kevin said "that's a nifty trick" and Mira said "this is called a light pen it lets you write anything in the air." After a few moments of Gwen trying but failing the pronounce whatever the symbols said she said "for some reason this isn't working" and Natsu said "I say we go with Ben's original idea and just bust the door down" and Erza smacked him on his head and said "idiot didn't you hear Gwen it won't work."
Natsu said "we'll see" and he ignited his hands and was about to charge at the door when Kevin punched him on the head and said "Chill it dragon boy if Gwen says it can't be broken into it can't be she's the expert on this stuff." Natsu said "you really want to go let's go" and Kevin scoffed and said "I could easily kick your can half way down the street and back before you could even get a hit in on me."
Natsu said "let's test that little theory" and before it could escalate beyond mere trash talk Gwen said "Natsu calm down, Kevin stop provoking him." They separated from each other Gwen said "as I was saying before I had to break up that fight I think I know someone" and Ben said "but you don't want to ask them" and Gwen said "no."
Ben then said "but you know how important catching Aggregor is so you're going to ask anyway" and Gwen said "I'll be right back don't start a fight with anyone Kevin" and she teleported away in a flash of magenta light. Kevin said "so you're doing both sides of the arguments now" and Ben said "Saves time" and shortly after Kevin said "why do you think she only told me to not start a fight" and Ben responded "I could not tell you off the top of my head."
(charmcaster's mansion, Bellwood)
Gwen appeared in another flash of magenta Gwen appeared in a library that she recognized considering she had broken into here many times in order to borrow books to try to find a way to turn Kevin back from his hideous form (Alien force season 2). Just as she was looking around for the person she was looking for she spotted them floating in the air reading a large book and said "Charmcaster I need your help."
Charmcaster just looked at her and said "well if it isn't little gwenny what a coincidence I was just thinking about you killing you to be specific." After redirecting a harmful blast that Charmcaster sent her way Gwen said "I don't have time for this as I said I need your help" and Charmcaster pulled a rod out her bag of tricks.
She then shot a beam from the staff at Gwen who blocked it with one of her mana shields and then propelled herself at Charmcaster and managed to disarm her while also knocking Charmcaster onto her front. Gwen was pointing the staff and Charmcaster and said "are you sure" and Charmcaster uttered a spell that caused the staff to turn into a snake which Gwen dropped from sheer surprise.
Charmcaster picked it up and shot a stronger blast at Gwen who put up a stronger mana shield and Charmcaster said "how dare you first steal my spell book and then 6 years later ask me for my help" Gwen said "we followed Aggregor to the door to anywhere he went to a place I couldn't pronounce the place was practically overflowing with mana."
At that it was charmcaster's chance to be surprised so surprised in fact she stopped her attack and said "take me to it."
(mystic path, door to anywhere)
As we join the rest of the team we see Kevin and Ben sitting on the steps that lead to the door to anywhere and they were playing a game that appeared to be 20 questions. As Kevin gave his first answer ben said "it's an incursion battle cruiser with ion drive" and Kevin said "how do you always guess so fast" and Ben said "Because it's always either a car or a ship."
Kevin said "not true sometimes it's a weapon" and just as he said that another flash of magenta light occurred and after it faded it revealed Gwen and Charmcaster. As Charmcaster walked over to the writing that Mirajane had wrote in midair with her light pen Lucy said "I've read you're file you do know the plumbers are looking for you almost all over earth."
Charmcaster said "I don't know who you are but I'm here to help" and Lucy walked over to Gwen and said in a hushed whisper "do you really trust her" and Gwen whispered back "I trust her to stab us in the back first chance she gets but we'll worry about that after she gets us to wadeta" and Charmcaster said suddenly "legerdomain"
Ben stated "wow you weren't even close" and Charmcaster said "actually she wasn't far off for someone self-taught legerdomain is what the natives call it. But the door only responds to the places secret true name which by the way is pronounced yowatocisif." The same glowing letters appeared above the door and the door opened to the dimension with a pink sky there.
Charmcaster said "after you" and the group of 9 walked into it with Lucy staying behind for a moment to whisper to Charmcaster "if you stab us in the back you're going to be locked up for a long time" and she walked into the dimension with Charmcaster entering last." She said "follow me" and they all walked behind her on the same path."
Gwen said "does anyone else feel that" and Natsu said "what the sudden power increase" and Gwen said "yeah there's so much mana here that it's making my teeth ache." Charmcaster said "what you're feeling is magic" and Gwen said "actually what you call magic has its basis in mana" and Charmcaster said "you don't know anything you're not mage you're an idiot savant."
Gwen said "what did you say" and Mira said "you know just because you are from here doesn't mean you get to call someone an idiot savant." Charmcaster said "oh and what gives you the right to talk as far as I'm concerned you and your friend that came here are in the same league as Gwen." Grey muttered "oh you shouldn't have done that" and Mira said "you can call me whatever you want but if you utter one more insult this is the fate that awaits you" and she turned into her demon form."
Before Charmcaster could respond the Ultimatrix in a monotone voice that sounded like ben said "uncatalogued alien DNA detected" and shot a yellow beam from the face plate. It started scanning Mira and after a moment the yellow beam dispersed and said "uncatalogued DNA scanned and available on playlist 5."
Charmcaster said "let me guess that's a form of possession or as they called it on your planet if I remember correctly a take-over." Mira said "yes and this isn't even my strongest form" and Charmcaster said "whatever let's get just keep going." After a few moment of walking Gwen caught up with Charmcaster and said "why are you so high strung all of a sudden."
Charmcaster sighed and said "the reason I know of this place is because my father sacrificed himself to let my uncle hex and myself escape from here. Unless he's been dethroned which, I doubt very seriously Adwatga is the keeper of the alpha rune which gives the being wearing it control over all magic." Natsu said "so what" and Charmcaster glared back at him and said "if you were to go up against him he could use any of your magics against you."
Natsu said "so what" and Charmcaster stopped and said "your magic is fire well he could easily conjure up water magic to stop it. He could probably come up with a counter for any of your magics." Just as Natsu was about to respond a flock of stone birds started diving toward them and just in time Gwen put up a shield to stop any of them from hitting any of the group."
Grey said "what exactly are those things" and Charmcaster replied "sckrewets they act as adwatga's eyes and ears" and Happy said "where are their ears." Natsu said "who cares we'll smash them anyway come on Happy and Happy said "aye sir" and picked him up and started flying away and Charmcaster said "don't fly the sky and earth aren't parallel here" and Natsu said "what do you mean."
Happy said "I think whatever it means is what's happening I can't tell which way is up and which way is down." Gwen shot up a tendril of her mana and in midair it split into two and one grabbed Natsu's ankle and the other grabbed Happy by his ankle and when she got them on the ground she said "why don't you try fighting closer to the ground."
Ben activated the Ultimatrix and after selecting a hologram slamming the faceplate down and after a flash of green light he was replaced by what appeared to be a giant white and yellow Armadillidae. He started rolling forward and through the sckrewets that were close enough for him to run through. While Ben was doing that Grey slammed a fist into his open palm and said "ice make: Lance" and shattered a few of the sckrewets.
Lisanna had turned into one of her many animal take-overs that strongly resembled a saber tooth tiger and started pouncing at the sckrewets while Mira was in her Satan soul form and was firing pink orbs of energy that were slightly stronger than Gwen's. meanwhile Erza was having her own problems since her skill was swordsmanship the swords were hardly doing anything against the sckrewets since she was aiming not to kill as was her normal style of fighting."
Ben shot forward opened up for the briefest of seconds and grabbed her and rolled up again and barreled his way through the sckrewets. After a moment of rolling around he opened up again and said "do you have a stronger armor with stronger weapons" and she said "maybe" and said "Requip" and she was bathed in a golden light and after it faded away she said "this is my lightning empress armor do you have an alien that can create an electric charge to give me a power boost" and Ben said "if the Ultimatrix cooperates I do."
He pushed down on the symbol on his chest and in a flash of green light he shouted out "Ampfibian" and was replaced with a floating light blue alien in color. He said "how strong of a lightning blast can you withstand" and she said "just give me your strongest blast this armor can take a lot of the blast and convert it into power that I can use" and Ampfibian said "okay hope this doesn't hurt at all or if it does not too much."
He shot a large beam of electricity into Erza's back and after a few seconds is shrunk down to almost nothing and the tip of her spear sparked to life and said "thanks for that" and shot the energy that she had absorbed with her armor and shot it at the remaining sckrewets which destroyed the rest of them. She changed back into her normal armor and said "that was almost too strong but the staff I was holding managed to absorb what my armor couldn't."
Ben said "sorry about that I wasn't sure how much you could handle so I just went with my weakest blast of electricity in that form." Erza said "that was your weakest" and Ben said "yeah it was" and she said "I am interested in your aliens when we have this resolved would you take me on in a fight." Ben said "after we stop Aggregor sure" and she said "and do you promise to go all out." Ben said "only if you think you can handle it."
The group started back on the path they were on before and Charmcaster said "you earthlander's magic is so different from normal magic." Grey replied "to us your magic is different" and all he received to that retort was a glare from Charmcaster. After walking for about another mile or so they came to a gap in the roadway.
Gwen tried to form a bridge out of her mana but it fell short and disappeared and she tried again with the same result. Charmcaster said "there are many of these here it's designed to prevent the inhabitants from going where they are not welcome and it's called a mystic sinkhole no one can bridge it." Mira said "normally I would suggest me and Lisanna just fly everyone over but with the sky and earth not being parallel we really can't do that."
Gwen said "you said no one could bridge it but what about two people with my power and your experience we should be able to bridge it. They joined hands and after a few seconds they had managed to bridge it. (wow I've been saying bridge a lot) the rest of the group went across it and Gwen and Charmcaster were bringing up the rear.
After everyone was across and they looked back they squealed like most girls their ages and hugged each other. After an awkward moment of them not noticing who they were hugging they broke apart and Gwen said "right you want me dead" and Charmcaster said "maybe just badly hurt" and Gwen said "well it's a start."
After walking for about another mile or so they came upon what appeared to be a cross between a castle and a bunker. Natsu said "so that's they place let's smash it" and a voice said "you will do no such thing you peasant." The voice belonged to someone who looked like an older Geochelone Aerio who was floating in the air and Ben said "huh looks like a terraspin."
The old terraspin said "don't even compare me to those weaklings I am stronger than all of them thanks to this" and he touched a relic around his neck. Charmcaster said "the only reason you have that is because you killed my father and took it from him isn't that right Adwatga" and Adwatga said "I didn't kill him but it was someone who took the alpha rune after killing him.
I just killed the guy who killed your father and then took the alpha rune for myself" and he then shot a beam of pink energy out his hand right at Charmcaster. Before the blast hit she felt someone push her out of the way and when she got up she looked at where she had been and saw that it had been Grey that had pushed her out of the way and that he was now encased in a pink crystal-like substance.
Natsu after watching that turned to Adwatga and said "the only one who can kick Grey's ass is me" and he charged in toward Adwatga with his fist ignited. Adwatga said "so you wish to join your friend as one of my lawn sculptures very well" and he shot a beam of energy at Natsu who nimbly dodged and jumped up and shouted "Fire dragon sword horn" and the attack had hit Adwatga who had fallen to the ground."
Natsu said "Are you ready to give up" and Adwatga said "hardly" and shot another beam at Natsu who didn't have time to dodge it this time. However, before the blast hit a giant purple crystal creature with six spikes coming out of its back, skinny arms and legs, and a spike coming out of its head jumped in the way intercepting that blast.
As he was apparently absorbing the blast the creature shouted out "Chromastone" and Natsu said "that's you right Ben" and the newly named chromastone turned his head and nodded." Natsu said "okay let's do this" and Ben shot multicolored beams at Adwatga which knocked him back onto his back and Natsu then shouted "Fire dragon's roar" and put his hands to his mouth like a trumpeter and shot out a large beam of fire from his mouth and an orange magic circle.
Just as Adwatga was getting up from those attacks seemingly unfazed there was a large blast of purple energy coming from around him. Before anyone could react, he shot it out from all sides and rose a large plume of smoke from his attack just then. After the smoke started clearing it was obvious what that attack was meant to do- paralyze everyone is purple stones.
However, instead of doing what it was supposed to do it had left two people unparalized at the cost of one of their strongest fighters. Standing in front of Ben and Natsu was Erza who had her entire body from the neck down encased in the purple rock. Ben said "why did you do that I was more than capable of defending both myself and Natsu since this form can absorb mana based attacks."
She said "because in this fight only a few of my armors would have allowed me to get up to where he was and most of them are not made for battle." Ben said "still you could have protected yourself behind a rock or something" and she said "I have no use in this battle it's all you two now" and Adwatga said "that's quite enough sentiment considering I'm already feeling sick from it so now it's time for you to be quiet."
He then shot a blast at Erza's uncovered head and it was almost instantly covered in the stone and Natsu was trembling not from fear but in anger." He said "Ben you said that form can absorb mana based attacks right" and Ben said "yeah why." Natsu said "Because while you try to figure out how to free everyone I'm going to take on this turtle faced asshole."
Ben said "so basically what you're saying is that you want me to leave him to you" and Natsu said "yeah" and Ben said "go at it then" and Natsu said "you don't need to tell me twice" before he charged forward. Ben then started thinking about how to get through the mana-created stone that was covering his friend's bodies.
He came up with an idea and then placed a hand on where Erza's shoulder was covered in stone and then focused the most he had ever in this form to unlock its true power. However instead of that actually working he only noticed small pieces of the stone falling off her body and he said "well if normal chromastone isn't enough I guess it's time to go ultimate."
After turning the symbol on his chest, a quarter of the way around he punched it with his hand and after a flash of green light he was looking quite different. While his body was still the same colors it had increased in mass and was looking quite a bit like Diamondhead with two spikes protruding from his back, a small valley of spikes from both of his shoulders, and the two protruding from his chest were sharper than they were before.
He looked at himself and then focused his powers in this form and a few moments later the stones around Erza along with everyone else started to fade away. He said "huh I knew this form would be powerful but I didn't know it would be that powerful" and a voice that he recognized all too well behind him said "actually that was my doing.
All I had to do was defeat this Geochelone Aerio with a blast of electricity and take the alpha rune and restore it to the normal look of the third piece of the map of infinity." Ben turned around and saw Aggregor who had Natsu by his neck and in his other hand he was holding his third piece of the map of infinity.
Aggregor then flew up over a canyon while still holding Natsu around the neck and said "it's your choice Tennyson if you come after me to get this piece of the map of infinity then this young man dies on the spike below. However, if you save him I will get away so it is all up to you" and he dropped Natsu who was unconscious, most likely from the lack of air flow to his lungs, over the canyon while flying away.
As expected Ben jumped over the canyon using his super speed flying as Ultimate Chromastone to go over the canyon and grab Natsu before he got impaled by the spikes. After he sat Natsu down he looked to the sky to see if he could locate Aggregor but he couldn't so he transformed back to his normal chromastone form.
After Natsu woke up and started trying to find Aggregor to try to defeat him again Chromastone said "he's gone Natsu." Natsu said "we have to go after him" and Erza said "we will however we have to get out of here first" and that was when Adwatga woke up and said "the alpha rune you thieves kill them all" and Gwen shot up a shield of mana around the whole group.
At this point the shield was surrounded by not only those sckrewet things but also giant stone monsters and Natsu said "if they want to fight let me at them." Charmcaster said "actually I agree with this moron this is the chance to free the people from Adwatga's tyranny." Chromastone said "now is not the time for that we stop the universe from being destroyed and then I promise we'll come back and free your people but we need the door now."
Charmcaster sighed and said "I need a little bit of time" and after a few moments of her using a spell that required her to speak the incantation out loud the door appeared and opened showing them where they had entered it. The entire group with the exception of Charmcaster ran through the door and Gwen said "Charmcaster come on" and the just looked at them with determination in her eyes.
Natsu said "oh no you're not staying there" and charged toward the door in an attempt to force her to go back with them she just blasted him back and the door closed. Mira asked "why would she stay behind in such an awful place?" and Gwen said "because she's going to free her people" and Mira said "if only she were to wait for us to stop Aggregor we would have been able to help her."
Gwen said "she didn't feel like waiting it's just her style" and Natsu got up and said "open the door again so I can pound her face in for blasting me and then bring her back here." Gwen was going to do so until she saw that the writing that Mira had done with that light pen was gone. Just as they were about to leave after Ben transformed back to his human form but there was a beeping coming from the Ultimatrix.
And I'm going to leave it off there for now I know that I'm forgetting at least one of the things that they had to fight in legerdomain but I can't remember what it was for the life of me since It's been over 5 years since I've seen any episode and mind you I watched the series from start to end. Anyway, in the next chapter we're going to be covering the events of the episode Perplexahedron and yes, I know I butchered the name probably. Anyway, this is another long chapter with 4272 words and 7 pages so until next time this is Diamondholder signing off.
