Mr. Smoothies Parking Lot: Bellwood

At the Mr. Smoothies in Bellwood, a fight was going on between the Hero of Bellwood, Ben Tennyson and a group of robots from Dimension 12. Ben was with his partner, Rook Blonko when they were attacked by the robots in the parking lot of Mr. Smoothies. Rook was hiding behind cover, firing his protocol at the robots while Ben was quickly trying to select an alien to transform into.

"Please do hurry Ben, I do not think I am doing any damage to them" Rook tells Ben as he fires a rocket at the robots

"I'm trying Rook, don't rush me" Ben tells Rook as he continues to scroll the omnitrix playlist

The rocket Rook fired at the robots hit them and exploded, creating a large cloud of black smoke that filled the area. When the smoke cleared, Rook could see that the robots were undamaged by the rocket. The robots then began to fire energy blasts at the spot where Rook and Ben taking cover.

"We can not stay here forever, may I suggest using your Biot-Savartian form or your Galvanic Mechamorph form to deal with the robots" Rook says to Ben in a panic, suggesting aliens he should transform into

"Good idea" Ben said as he scrolled over the icon of his Biot-Savartian transformation, Lodestar

Before Ben could select it and transform, one of the robots picked up a large truck and threw it at Ben and Rook

"LOOK OUT!!!" Rook yelled as he pushed Ben out of the way, rolling out of the way as well

The truck hit the spot where Ben and Rook were taking cover and exploded, sending flames and debris everywhere

"Thanks for the save" Ben said, thanking Rook

"You can thank me by transforming and helping me deal with these Dimension 12 robots" Rook tells Ben as he fires his protocol at the robots

"Got it" Ben said as he went to activate the omnitrix

Before Ben could do that, his phone started ringing which distracted him

"What now?" Ben asked with an annoyed sigh

Ben took out his phone and saw that he was getting a call from his cousin, Gwendolyn

"What does she want?" Ben asked as he quickly dodged a light pole that was thrown at him by one of the robots

Ben's phone kept ringing as he kept avoiding energy blasts and items thrown at him by the robots. Ben then answered the phone to see what it was that his cousin wanted and why she was calling him.

"Hey dweeb, now is not a good time" Ben tells his cousin over the phone as he activates the omnitrix

"Ben, it's important" Gwendolyn tells Ben over the phone

"I'm sure it is but right now Rook and I have our hands full" Ben tells his cousin over the phone as he quickly scrolls through the omnitrix playlist

"But Ben, it's about Charmcaster" Gwendolyn tells Ben over the phone

Ben quickly selects an alien which causes the omnitrix faceplate to slide back as its core pops up

"I'm coming Rook" Ben tells Rook before he slams the core of the omnitrix down, becoming engulfed in a bright green light

As Ben was engulfed by the bright green light, he was transformed into the alien that he had selected. When the green light faded away, it was revealed that Ben had transformed into a small humanoid alien who had a gray body that looked like a suit with headphones on and a backpack on its back. The alien also had green slits on its face that formed eyes and a mouth with the omnitrix badge being in the center of its forehead.

The alien that Ben had transformed into was his Sonorosian transformation that he called Echo Echo

"I'm…coming…Rook…hold on" Ben says to Rook who is struggling to deal with the group of robots attacking him

Ben then looks down at his phone and sees that Gwendolyn is still on the line

"Look Gwen…I…will…talk with…you…when Rook…and I…aren't…being attacked" Ben tells his cousin

"But Ben, it's really important, I need your help" Gwendolyn tells Ben over the phone before Ben hangs up on her

Now that Ben wasn't dealing with talking with his cousin over the phone, he could focus on helping Rook with the robots from Dimension 12

"I was…hoping for…Lodestar…but…Echo Echo…will…have to…do" Ben said to himself

Ben then ran towards where Rook was as he kept dodging attacks from the robots while attacking them with his prototool which was now transformed into its energy blade form

"It took you long enough to help" Rook said to Ben as he dodged one of the robots trying to attack him with its metal arm

"Sorry…Gwen…called me" Ben says to Rook, apologizing

"It does not matter now, let us just deal with these mechanized robots" Rook tells Ben

"Got it…cover…your ears" Ben tells Rook

Rook gets out of the way and covers his ears as Ben instructed him

"Time…for…some…action" Ben said before he began to split into multiple Echo Echos and surrounded all of the robots in the parking lot

Rook knew what was coming next and was glad that Ben had given him a warning

"Sonic…BOOM!!!" Ben and all his Echo Echo clones yelled loudly, unleashing a powerful sonic attack

The sonic attack that Ben and his Echo Echo clones unleashed was loud and powerful enough to cause all of the robots from Dimension 12 to explode into pieces. Once the robots were all destroyed, Ben and his Echo Echo clones merged back together before Ben transformed back into his human form.

"Man, those things are really annoying" Ben said to himself as he looked at the remains of the destroyed robots

"I thought once that Billy Billions was dealt with we would stop seeing these things" Rook said as he walked over to where Ben was

"Things are never that easy" Ben said to Rook as he kicked a piece of metal scrap from the robots

"I will inform the Plumbers that this matter has been taken care of" Rook tells Ben

"Cool, I'll Gwen back and see what she wanted to talk to me about" Ben said as he took out his phone

Prototruck: City Streets, Bellwood

It was later in the afternoon and both Ben and Rook were driving back to Ben's apartment in Rook's prototruck. Both of them were exhausted from the fight before and wanted to get some rest. Rook was driving while Ben was sitting in the passenger seat, scrolling through his phone.

"So, what was it that Gwendolyn wished to talk to you about?" Rook asks Ben as he drives down the street

"She wanted to talk to me about Charmcaster and how she escaped from the bag and took Hex's staff and some of his magic books" Ben answered as he continued to scroll through his phone

"I see, and what did you tell her exactly?" Rook asks Ben, giving him a look

"I told her that I couldn't help her with that and while her and I faced off against Charmcaster many times, she was technically her villain and not mine" Ben answered with a shrug as he leaned back in his seat

"Are you positive that was the answer you wanted to give her?" Rook asks Ben

Ben knows what Rook is trying to get at and let's out a sigh as he looks out the window

"It's not something I can just easily tell her, especially how the situation has changed and besides, no one was really supposed to find out, not even you" Ben tells Rook as he continues to look out the window

"I understand your feelings about everything and her but do understand that your cousin has every right to worry" Rook tells Ben as he stops at a red light

"Don't get me wrong, I want to tell her but knowing Gwen, she'd just overreact and make things worse when they are going steady" Ben said with a sigh

"I wish that human feelings and emotions were easy to understand" Rook said

"Trust me, I wish they were too" Ben said

Ben looks out the window and thinks back to the call he had with his cousin Gwendolyn after he and Rook defeated the robots

000000000000000000000000000000000000

Mr. Smoothies: Bellwood

After the fight with the robots from Dimension 12, Ben was sitting down at a table, drinking a smoothie while Rook was filling out a report for the Plumbers. While Rook was doing that, Ben was talking on the phone with his cousin Gwendolyn. Now that he wasn't busy, Gwendolyn was able to tell him everything that was going on.

"Like I said Ben, I stopped hearing Charmcaster from her bag a few days ago and now the bag and her with it are missing" Gwendolyn tells Ben over the phone

"I don't really know what you want me to do about that Gwen, magic isn't exactly my thing and I'm not responsible for looking after that stuff" Ben tells his cousin as he takes a sip of his smoothie

"I'm not saying it is, I'm just warning you that if Charmcaster gets free, she'll come after both you and me" Gwendolyn tells Ben over the phone

"Like I said before, while we've fought in the past, Charmcaster was always your villain and besides I'm sure after being stuck in a bag for a few years she could have changed" Ben said to his cousin

There was a bit of silence before Gwendolyn laughed at Ben over the phone

"Come on Ben, its Charmcaster we're talking about, she hates my guts and she hates you too, heck, we both know she'll never change" Gwendolyn tells Ben over the phone

"You don't know that, time changes people, sometimes for the worse but mostly for the better" Ben says

"I know how you feel after Kai left you but Charmcaster isn't Kai, Charmcaster is crazy evil and not only has Hex's staff but she also took books from his collection" Gwendolyn tells Ben over the phone

"How do you know she even escaped and did that? I'm sure you just lost the bag and need to keep looking for it" Ben tells his cousin

"I'm sure I didn't lose it, look, I'll be getting a few weeks off for break coming up, Kevin and I will head to Bellwood and make sure Charmcaster doesn't come after us" Gwendolyn tells Ben over the phone

"You don't need to do that, Rook and I have everything under control, I'll call you if I see her" Ben tells his cousin

"You better, you and I both know how dangerous she can be" Gwendolyn tells Ben over the phone

"You really don't get it" Ben said to himself before he hung up the phone and sat it down on the table

Looking at his phone, Ben let out a sigh

"She's not going to let it go, is she?" Ben asked himself, letting out another sigh

Prototruck: Outside Ben's Apartment, Bellwood

After a few hours of driving, Rook had arrived at Ben's apartment and had parked the prototruck outside the entrance

"I know that you like to see the good in people and like to give them second chances but do be careful with this one" Rook tells Ben

"Don't worry Rook, I am being as careful as I can be" Ben tells Rook as he unbuckles his seat belt

"Some would not see it that way but I have faith in you" Rook tells Ben

"Thanks Rook, I'll see you tomorrow" Ben said to Rook, thanking him as he got out of the prototruck

"Yes, I will see you tomorrow" Rook replied

000000000000000000000000000000000000

Ben's Apartment: Bellwood

It was late and it had been an extremely long and difficult day for Ben as he walked up the flight of stairs to his apartment. As Ben opened the door and stepped inside his apartment, he could smell food being made which brought a smile to his face.

"I'm home" Ben said as he closed the door behind him and locked it

Ben walked further into his apartment, kicking off his shoes and taking off his jacket, hanging it up near the door

"Something smells really good" Ben said as he walked past his living room and entered the kitchen

As Ben walked into the kitchen, he saw a woman who appeared to be around the same age as him. She had long silver hair with purple highlights that was put up into a ponytail, she also had bright purple eyes with black markings around them. The woman was also wearing a purple tank top with black stretch pants and had gold and silver bracelets around her wrists with rings on her fingers.

"Dinner is almost done, it's got about a few minutes before we can eat it" the woman says to Ben, as she turns around to face him

"Whatever it is, it smells good and I can't wait to eat it" Ben said with a smile on his face

"While dinner is going, do you want to take a shower or have a little snack with me?" The woman asks Ben, wrapping her arms around him and pulling him close

"How about both?" Ben asked before kissing the woman on the lips

000000000000000000000000000000000000

Her name was Hope, she was the daughter of the Ledgerdomain sorcerer known as Spellbinder and was also the niece of the former villain turned college professor, Hex. Hope too was once a villain like her uncle and was known as Charmcaster and had been a thorn in both Ben and Gwendolyn's side since they were 10 years old. On many occasions, Hope would trick and manipulate Ben and Gwendolyn as well as Gwendolyn's boyfriend and Ben's best friend, Kevin Levin. At one point, she was even able to kill the three of them but was stopped by her father. Throughout the years, Hope had made it her goal to destroy Gwendolyn but after being tricked by her and trapped in her own magical bag, Hope had time to think.

Hope thought about everything she had done and wondered if all of it was just wasted effort on her part. Hope also wondered if her feelings were misguided and what she could do if she was given a second chance. Thinking of that, Hope wondered about Ben and how he felt about her, given their history together. Ben had treated her differently than any other man had and for whatever reason he was different. Hope wondered why that was and began to question if she had feelings for Ben and if he also had feelings for her, given how he acted around her when they weren't fighting.

Hope would have her questions answered when she was suddenly freed from her bag and was able to escape Gwendolyn and Freedkin University. Taking her bag as well as her uncle's staff and a few other magical books and tomes, Charmcaster set out to find Ben. Upon finding him, Hope saw that Ben had broken up with his girlfriend Kai who had cheated on him with a Loboan and left him heartbroken. Hope related to Ben, given how she too had her heart broken by another in the form of Michael Morningstar using her. The two would met and after a long talk and time together the two became a couple and moved in together. Of course Ben had to keep his relationship with Hope a secret given how Gwendolyn might react and try to seal Hope away again, not trusting her.

Ben's Apartment: Bellwood

After taking a shower together and having a little fun with each other, Ben and Hope were sitting at their dinner table, eating the food that Hope had made for dinner

"This is really delicious babe, I love your cooking" Ben tells Hope as he continues to eat

"Stop it, my cooking is nowhere near the level of yours" Hope tells Ben

Hope had made a special type of goulash casserole for dinner that was stuffed with different types of meat and vegetables as well as having two types of pasta noodles in it

"Your cooking is really something special, it just heals me after a long day" Ben said to Hope as he continued to eat

"Really? My cooking does that?" Hope asks Ben, giving him a look

"Your cooking isn't the only thing that does that but it is on the list" Ben answered with a nervous gulp

"That's good to hear" Hope said, teasing Ben

Unlike with Kai, Ben was able to be himself around Hope and didn't have to pretend to be something he wasn't with her. Ben was comfortable around Hope and felt appreciated as did she with him.

"So, how was your day today?" Hope asked Ben as they continued to eat

"It was the same old same old, Rook and I did have to fight some robots from Dimension 12 though" Ben answered, as he served himself some more food

"I see, those things can get really annoying when there's more than one of them" Hope said

"Yeah, but Rook and I were able to deal with them" Ben said with a shrug

"Is that all that happened today?" Hope asked Ben

Ben remembered the phone call he had with his cousin Gwendolyn and remembered what she talked to him about. Knowing what Gwendolyn wanted made Ben question if he should tell Hope or not about it.

"I did talk to Gwen today" Ben answered nervously

Hope could see the nervous look on Ben's face as he said that to her

"What did she say?" Hope asked Ben

"The usual stuff" Ben answered

"I see, looks like she's still trying to find me" Hope said with a sigh

"Don't worry, I'm not going to let her do anything to you, I promise you that" Ben tells Hope, reaching over and grabbing her hand

"I know you won't but I don't want you to ruin your relationship with your family" Hope tells Ben

"Look, if Gwen doesn't want to accept this version of you then she won't be my family, your all I need" Ben tells Hope with serious look on his face

Hope reaches over and puts her hand against Ben's face

"I lost the chance to have a relationship with my family, I don't want you to have the same happen to you" Hope tells Ben

"It's a good thing I'm your family now" Ben tells Hope

As a tear falls from Hope's eye, Ben leans over and wipes it off of her face before giving her a kiss

"I am going to keep trying to Gwen to change her mind about you but for now, I am going to keep her from you" Ben tells Hope as he breaks away from their kiss

"What about your parents?" Hope asks Ben

"They don't know about you which is why I want to introduce them to you" Ben answered

"You want me to meet your parents?" Hope asked Ben

"I do, I was thinking of having them come over for dinner tomorrow night and have them get to know you before Gwen or anyone tells them about your past" Ben answered

"I'd really like for that to happen" Hope said as she smiled

"Good, I'll message them and let them know" Ben said

As the two finished their dinner and cleaned up everything, Ben was going to do the dishes before Hope pulled him out of the kitchen

"What is it Hope? I'm trying to do the dishes" Ben says to Hope as she continues to pull him out of the kitchen

"You can do the dishes tomorrow, I want to relax with you" Hope tells Ben as she leads him to living room

Hope then sits Ben down on the couch and slowly gets on top of him

"It looks like you want to do more than relax with me" Ben says to Hope

"I enjoyed the fun we had in the shower but I think I want a little more than that" Hope tells Ben as she seductively licks her lips

"Someone is a little naughty" Ben said with a chuckle

"Do you not want me to be?" Hope asks Ben as she slowly crawls on top of him

"I do like nice girls but I can do with a naughty one" Ben answered

"Good to hear" Hope said before she grabbed Ben's shirt and pulled him in for a kiss

000000000000000000000000000000000000

Ben's Apartment: Bellwood

It was early in the morning and Ben woke up to find himself on the floor of his living room with a naked Hope on top of him while the two were covered with a blanket. It didn't take Ben long to see that he was also naked and to remember what had happened last night. Looking around, Ben found his phone on the floor next to him and grabbed it to see what time it was.

"Crap, looks like its 12 o'clock" Ben said, checking the time on his phone

Ben slowly got Hope to roll off him as he got up and began to get dressed, putting on his pants

"What's the matter babe?" Hope asked Ben as she woke up and let out a yawn

"It's 12, I've got to get ready and meet up with Rook for patrol" Ben answered as he continued to get dressed

"I wish you could stay with me for a little bit longer" Hope said with a sigh as she got up and sat on the couch with a blanket wrapped around her

"I really want to do that too but I've got to get to work" Ben said as he put on his shirt

"Will you call me when you get a break?" Hope asks Ben

"You know I will" Ben answers

"Good, because you know what will happen if you don't" Hope tells Ben

"Trust me, I do" Ben said

Hope then got up and gave Ben a kiss as he struggled to get his socks on while standing up

"You have a good day at work" Hope tells Ben as she breaks away from their kiss

"You need to have a good day as well" Ben tells Hope

The two then kiss again as Ben gets his shoes on and heads for the door

"I'm getting off early tonight so I can make dinner for us and your parents" Hope tells Ben

"Great, I'll get them and head over when I get off" Ben said

"Just make sure to text me when you are on your way" Hope tells Ben

"I will" Ben says as he gets his jacket

Hope then blows Ben a kiss as he grabs his keys and leaves the apartment

"I'll be back tonight" Ben said before he closed the door and left

Training Room: Plumber Base, Above Earth

In the training room of the Plumber Base, floating in space above Earth, Ben was training with Rook while they were waiting for their next assignment. Rook was shooting targets with his prototool while Ben was sparing with some new combat drones that Blukic and Driba created. He was transformed as an alien that looked like a large muscular humanoid chicken hawk alien, that had sharp claws on its hands and feet as well as sharp blades on its arms. The omnitrix badge was in the center of its chest on a green combat vest that the alien wore.

https/rzgmon200/art/BU-ITO-Kickin-Hawk-773225184

The alien that Ben was transformed as was an unknown alien that he called Kickin Hawk

"I wonder when grandpa is going to give us our new assignment" Ben said as he knocked back two of the combat drones with a single kick

"Magister Tennyson is a very busy man, I am sure that he has his reasons for taking so long in giving us our assignment for the day" Rook said as he hit the holographic targets with blasts from his prototool

Ben blocked an attack from one of the combat drones then jumped over another one that tried to attack him from behind. Ben then punched the drone multiple times before cutting it in half with the blades on his arms.

"You know me, I've got things I want to do today and I don't really like waiting" Ben said with an annoyed tch sound as he destroyed another combat drone

"I have noticed that patience is not one of your strongest suits, especially when it comes to your magically inclined significant other" Rook said as he fired at three more holographic targets

"Would you shut up about that, you are the only one here that knows about that and I'd like to keep it that way" Ben tells Rook as two new combat drones appear and start to attack him

"Would it not be best to tell someone other than I about the relationship you have with Charmcaster who is an enemy of yours and has tried to kill you on multiple occasions?" Rook asks Ben

"Yeah we fought in the past but she was mostly Gwen's enemy and I was just kind of there, but that is besides the point, she's had time to think and reflect on her actions" Ben tells Rook as he throws the remains of the destroyed combat drones at the new ones

"I guess you are right about time changing a person but are you sure that Charmcaster is one of those people?" Rook asks Ben

"Her name is Hope and I have the utmost faith in her" Ben tells Rook with a serious look on his face

"I will believe you but I must warn you that if Gwendolyn finds out about what is going on, she will not be as understanding as I" Rook tells Ben, warning him

"I know, that's why I want for her to get to meet my parents and for them to get to know her" Ben said before he destroyed the new combat drones with a flurry of kicks

"What about Magister Tennyson, should he not be informed of this as well?" Rook asks Ben as he shoots more holographic targets with his prototool

"I am planning on telling him later, I've just got to find the right time to do that" Ben answered before he transformed back into his human form

It was then that the intercom came on and a voice spoke

"Ben Tennyson to the meeting room, Magister Tennyson has requested your presence, I re repeat, Ben Tennyson to the meeting room, Magister Tennyson has requested your presence" the voice over the intercom said, repeating itself

"I guess I'll go and see what he wants then" Ben said as the intercom turned off

"I'll be waiting in the hanger then for you" Rook said as he stopped shooting at holographic targets

"Yeah, I'll see you there" Ben said to Rook before he left the training room to head to the meeting room where his grandfather was waiting for him

000000000000000000000000000000000000

Meeting Room: Plumber Base, Above Earth

Ben had arrived at the meeting room of the Plumber Base, after getting the call to head there and meet up with his grandfather, Max Tennyson. Ben entered the meeting room and saw his grandfather sitting down at the end of the table where the holographic projector screen was.

"Hey grandpa, you wanted to see me?" Ben asks his grandfather while greeting him

"Have a seat Ben, I want to talk to you about something" Max tells Ben, motioning for him to sit down

"You're worrying me grandpa, did I do something wrong?" Ben asks his grandfather as he sits down at the table

"Don't worry, you didn't do anything wrong" Max tells Ben, putting him at ease

"That's good, you had me going there for a second" Ben said with a sigh of relief

"Has your cousin called you and talked to you about Charmcaster escaping from her magic bag?" Max asks Ben

Ben could see that his grandfather had a serious look on his face as he asked him that question

"Yeah, Gwen called me yesterday making it sound like some big deal that I should worry about" Ben answered, trying to keep his cool

"Seeing how Charmcaster has caused problems for us in the past, I'd say her getting free is something to worry about" Max said

"It's been about 5 years since Gwen trapped her in her own magic bag, I'd think that amount of time could change a person" Ben said, sticking up for Hope

"I guess it could but then again it could also fuel anger and hatred" Max said with a shrug

"It could but you've got to have a little bit of faith in people, look at what happened with Kevin" Ben says to his grandfather, bringing up Kevin's change from villain to friend

"Kevin was a special case but I guess it is a possibility for someone like Charmcaster" Max said

Ben was hoping that he'd convinced his grandfather that Hope wasn't someone to worry about but his grandfather wasn't done yet

"I still think that Charmcaster being out there that you should watch your back, you are partially responsible for her evil plans failing and she hates you just about as much as she hates your cousin" Max tells Ben

"I don't think I should worry and besides, if Charmcaster really wanted to do something, she would have done it by now" Ben said

"Really now?" Max asks Ben, raising an eyebrow

"Yeah, I'm sure she's probably doing something else and isn't thinking about revenge against Gwen and me" Ben answered, still trying to keep his cool

"I guess you are right Ben, I don't think I should have to worry" Max said

Hearing his grandfather say that, Ben let out a mental sigh of relief

"Then again, I think these pictures our scouts took do tell us a lot" Max said to Ben, catching him off guard

"Pictures?" Ben asked with a confused look on his face

"Yes, I had a scout monitor you for an extra layer of safety and they took pictures, I've already seen them and I wanted to get your opinion on them" Max answers

Ben's suddenly heart drops as his panic slowly starts to build up as he gets extremely nervous. Ben then watches as his grandfather presses a button which causes pictures to appear on the holographic screen, appearing above the table. Thousands of pictures of Ben having fun and going on dates with Hope appear on the holographic screen.

"These are just from this week, there are plenty more where that came from" Max says to Ben before he pressed a button that caused even more photos to appear on the holographic screen

Looking at all of the photos and remembering that his grandfather said that he had already seen them, Ben knew that he had been caught and that he was in serious trouble

"You know what they say Ben, a picture can say a thousand words but I'd like to hear what you have to say" Max says to Ben with a serious look on his face

"I can explain all of this" Ben said to his grandfather

"I'm sure you can" Max says to Ben, still giving him a serious look

Ben gulps as sweat starts to drip down from his head as he begins to panic

"Well, I'm waiting" Max tells Ben, wanting an explanation

"Where do I begin?" Ben asks with a nervous look on his face

"From the beginning" Max tells Ben

"Okay, I'll start from the beginning grandpa" Ben said with a gulp

"Good" Max said

Ben took a deep breath in and out before he began his explanation to his grandfather about him and Hope

"Well grandpa, I guess you can say that it started when an alien device did what it did" Ben began

Author's Note

Hello there readers, it is SJMS09 and here is the first official chapter of my new story, Charmed. I hope that all of you enjoyed this chapter and are ready for what is coming I'm the next one. Ben and Hope aka Charmcaster are in a relationship with each other and now Ben has to explain everything to his grandfather. You'll get to see that go down in the next chapter and what happens afterwards. You'll also get to see the dinner Ben is going to have with Hope as his parents come over so he can introduce Hope to them. I won't spoil much but I will say that things will get really interesting and you readers are not going to want to miss a thing. You readers will also get to see what happened with Ben and Kai and their breakup as well as how Ben and Hope's relationship started.

The reason I am doing this story is because a few weeks ago, I had a voting poll for two future stories on one of my stories, Omni-Titan. The two story types were a crossover story which Omni-Punch one since only one person voted for it and nobody voted for the regular story so I went with the Ben and Charmcaster romance story. It's been a few weeks since when I said I'd announce the winners of that voting poll and publish the chapters for them but I decided to hold off and wait a bit longer. I've waited long enough and the results haven't really changed so this is what I am doing now. At some point I will do the other story options but for now I am going to be doing this and the other story, Omni-Punch.

Moving on, like with most of my stories, I will be using the Omniverse designs for Ben's aliens unless there is a different design I like better. I'll also be using OC and non-cannon alien transformations for this story like the ones from the InkTank's 5YL series. If there is a specific non-cannon/OC alien that you'd like to see added to this story, please let me know in the comments. Moving on again, like with my other stories, there are a few things that you readers should know about what I am planning to do with this story.

1. There will be a new chapter for this story every Thursday

2. Each chapter will be 6,000 words long, including the Author's Note at the end

3. This will be a mature story

4. There will be lemon scenes (sex scenes) in this story

5. At the end of each chapter, I will respond to comments from the previous chapter

6. At the end of each chapter, I will answer questions from the previous chapter

7. At the end of each chapter, I will do an Alien Information part for each alien transformation that shows up in the chapter for the first

And those are just about everything that you readers should know about what I am planning on doing with this story. When it comes to the lemon scenes (sex scenes) that will show up in future chapters, I will have a warning to skip ahead if you don't want to read it. Moving on, since this is the first chapter of my new story, there aren't any comments to respond to and questions to answer. That means that I am going to be wrapping things up here.

If you want to leave a comment, feel free to do so and I will respond to it at the end of the next chapter.
