Chapter2: Truth & Training

Earth campsite

Max was eating his dinner and suddenly he hears gwen screaming calling him and he rushes to check her she approaches him, she was panting heavily, and he notices Ben is not with her.

Gwen what happened where is ben?

He waits until she relaxes and takes her to the campsite sets her on a bench

Now tell me gwen what happened and where is ben?

Ben… he disappeared a watch said gwen panting

What do you mean he disappeared? asked max

Then gwen told how a shooting star fell from sky and it contain a watch how it latched on to bens arm and how he disappeared

So you are saying a watch took ben to some place asked max

Yes its like the watch teleported him a planet called primus or something what should we do now grandpa what should we tell aunt Sandra and uncle clark asked gwen.

First we should know what primus is we will think about what should we tell them its not easy to tell them that a watch from space took him to some place said max

Grandpa I think the watch knows about you when the watch attached to ben it said DNA match with magister max Tennyson do you know about it grandpa what does a magister mean asked gwen.

Before max could answer her an emergency came from radio saying

Two strange robots are attacking the campsite said the voice in a panic tone.

Max turned to gwen well before I answer you we have an important work then they both get into RV and drove to the spot where the drones were attacking gwen opened the door of the RV a saw the havoc caused by the drones max came near to the door and saw the drones no way that's all was max said.

Do you know about them grandpa asked gwen then max immediately took two blasters and handed one to gwen and a mask to cover their faces.

Put on this mask and shoot them with it we cant get noticed by the civilians

Then they both made to clear the situation to gwen it was hard but when she saw max she was surprised he was able to destroy them quickly and helped gwen after destroying the drones they arrived to their campsite.

Now grandpa you are going to tell me she demanded.

Well I have no choice but before I tell you we should get help to find ben then he took his cellphone and dailed a number

Hello max its been a long time how are you? asked the person on the phone.

Well I am good devin I am on a road trip with my grandkids but there is problem.

Well I am with kevin you know how he inherited my powers I am taking a break to get control on his powers you know if he goes out of control we will get into trouble.

Did you tell him about your work asked max

No I plan on telling him later there is no point in delaying said devin

I think it's the time to tell him can you come to my place its urgent a big problems has come said max.

What problem asked devin

Vilgax he is back.

Okay now that's a bigger problem send me your coordinates I will be there ASAP said devin

Okay then max hung up and sent him coordinates.

After some time a car arrived to the place where max was there from the car two persons got out one was man in 40's and boy at 11 max and devin both shared a hug

After all these years you haven't changed said max

That goes to you as well max said devin

Kevin you have grown a lot from the last time I have seen you said max

Kevin gave him a confused look

You probably don't remember me since the last time you saw me 5 years before.

Well let me introduce my granddaughter gwen

She greeted them and turned to look grandpa this doesn't answer my questions

I am coming to that then the four sat on the benches well gwen there is lot of secret about me even your father or uncle knows.

Well I probably figured it when you blasted those drones from space

Drones from space what does it mean asked kevin

Well the same goes for me said devin

See I and devin are plumbers who work for an intergalactic space organisation who tries to maintain peace in the universe and we both are high ranking officers know as magister and we both took part in many missions and gave some details about plumbers

So you are basically a space cop said gwen

To put it simple its yes he is the best of all said devin

Don't flatter me devin we both know you bested me in many areas and how you take risk without second thought which I even cant dream myself to make said max

So that's explain why I am rash said kevin with a smirk

Yes some time he risk his life to save others and he also saved me many times.

So that why I got powers said kevin

What powers asked gwen

Then kevin tried absorb the material from the bench he managed to absorb upto his fore hand which shocks gwen

How did you do that? asked gwen

He is an osmosian its natural for them to absorb matter and energy said max

Whats an osmosian asked gwen

They are humans with mutation said max.

Okay what it has to do with a watch kidnapping ben asked gwen.

Watch kidnap asked devin.

Then gwen told them what happened

Take us to the site asked devin.

Then the four went to crash site the see that the pod was shattered in pieces

Looks like vilgax is after that pod so he sent drones to collect it said max.

Who is vilgax? asked gwen and kevin

The most dangerous person in the universe and intergalactic warlord who set his way in universal conquest said devin.

Max saw it was late night okay lets rest for today then we will try to find what happened to ben from tomorrow.

Then they went to RV to get to sleep

Grandpa! called gwen

Yes gwen

Its about ben I think he didn't expect you of all the people to compare him with me he said his parents and relatives always compare him with to escape from them he took this trip but gwen hesitated to tell.

Okay gwen I understand I didn't know his parents compare him.

Do you think we can find him asked gwen.

To tell the truth in the given situation its practically impossible to find him knowing how big the universe is but we will try our best, there is a hope I think who ever took ben they don't have any evil or malicious intentions and seeing vilgax was after the device and how it said may name hope for the best that ben will be alright said max.

PRIMUS

Ben wake up ben .. ben opening his eyes slowly saw that Eunice is trying to wake him seeing that he opened his eyes she waited from him to get up.

Good morning ben

Good morning Eunice

Lets go we should start training said Eunice azmuth is waiting

Then they both entered into the hall where azmuth was waiting ben greeted azmuth.

Shall we begin asked azmuth

Wait before we begin lets eat I am starving I didn't eat any thing last night said ben

Okay after ennice made something to eat for ben eat its edible for human said azmuth.

After eating the three of them went to a waste land in primus

Before we begin let me give you a basic demonstration on how omnitrix works then azmuth gave a demo how to activate it then ben saw a silhouette of some aliens he selected on pressed the core down and instantly he was transformed in to an alien whose body is made of magma and fire.

When ben saw he was on fire he began to run in panic I am on fire I am on fire

Ben calm down nothing is happening to you you are fine said eunice

Then after some time ben calm down hey I am not burning down said ben

That's what I am telling you have transformed into a alien species called pyronite said eunice.

Okay what this alien can do asked ben.

It can manipulate fire absorb and blast fire said azmuth.

Will you give it a try asked azmuth

Okay said ben

Then the omnitrix gave basic instinct in his mind how this alien works

Then he fired into sky which made a small Firey explosion

Cool said ben

Okay azmuth into how many aliens can I transform asked ben

At present 10 as your training progress you will get more aliens said azmuth.

Okay then why do I need to train in combat and other negotiation skills when I can turn into aliens asked ben

Before azmuth can reply ben truned into human again.

See there is a time limit how long you can be an alien what will you do when you time out how can you be safe if don't know how to defend yourself and some aliens doesn't agree to reason and tend to fight and some are hard to reason to overcome it you need negotiation skills and the omnitrix gives you basic survival instinct to use but its upto you to use them in full potential and I need to teach you some other things so you can do well on your missions

okay when will go to missions asked ben.

when you complete your basic training now we will start on basic combat skills said azmuth

eunice will train you basic combat skills once you complete them then advanced and expert said azmuth

wait! She will train me but she..

is a girl completed azmuth don't be fooled by appearance its one of reason I made eunice to resemble a girl now start.

then both eunice and ben stand facing each other in centre of the land.

now hit me with all you got don't hold back said eunice.

are you sure.

yes now come.

ben rushed towards her to give a punch on her face with his left hand simple she moved to right and pulled him onto the ground by holding his left hand again he tried to punch her this time she gave him a light jab on his solar plexuses which made him to grunt in pain again he tried to made contact but failed all his attempts are futile.

Wow! You are stronger than I think I couldn't even touch you said ben I think gwen can give you a competition said ben.

Eunice with a slight jealous asked him who is gwen

She is my cousin why?

Just asking

Now get up there is lot for you to learn hence the whole week she trained him with moves and techniques.

After a week he managed to give eunice some competition by giving her some punches

Well you are improving faster than I think at this rate you can give a decent fight said eunice

Thanks

Now Tennyson along with combat skills I train you in negotiation skills and how to use your galvan and galvanic form said azmuth

Hence the passed by half day with combat skills training and other half day with azmuth in negotiation skills training and using his galvan and galvanic mechamorph transformation which ben named as grey matter and upgrade and he named all his available tranformations.

One day while eating lunch Eunice asked ben why do you name your transformations with weird names even though they have their species names.

Well naming them seems to be cool but I think giving a name to them makes more respectable said ben.

They are only a shadow they don't have any intelligence of their own I think you focus on using them than naming them said azmuth rhetorically

I don't know about that but when ever I transform I feel like I have lived their life and they are part of me and I am a part of them said ben and they are not tools for my use i see persons.

This amused azmuth and thought this boy is different than others I think choosing this boy over max was worth it,if he saw mere transformations as persons then definitely he will make a difference.

EARTH

Its been two weeks since ben was missing though max using all his plumber connections and influence cant find what happened to ben, and they are still investigating about vilgax they are struck at the same spot.

Is there any information on ben grandpa asked gwen

No gwen we are still searching.

Devin do you have any information on vilgax asked max

No, I am wondering what type of device it is if vilgax has his eyes on it said devin.

Yes you have a point if vilgax is also searching for the watch then it's a bad thing who knows what kind of weapon it will be said max.

Gwen you said the watch said your grandpas name asked devin

Yes it said magister max Tennyson replied gwen.

So we can confirm it is a plumber related device but vligax was after it I can probably tell that he has most advanced weapons and technology than plumbers.

Well if it is a normal plumber device vilgax wont bother about it so we should conclude it's a highly advanced technology and only one person can build that kind of device said max

Yes we need to contact azmuth said devin

But he is missing for decades nobody knows where he went he is not on galvan prime.

Who is azmuth asked gwen.

Well he is highly respected counsellor among plumbers and gave many advanced technology and null void for plumbers said max.

What is null void and what kind of technology dad asked kevin.

Null void is a prision dimension build by galvans to prision the dangerous criminals in universe so nobody could escape it and many more advance technology and infrastructure were given by galvans answered devin.

Okay I will contact galvan prime and ask them about azmuth if he returned we may know something said max.

Then devin also went in his way

Only gwen and kevin were left

Now tell me about ben asked kevin.

He is a doofus said gwen.

So you don't like him asked kevin

No that's not I meant we should have a ton patience to withstand him whenever we meet within five minutes we get into argument said gwen

Do you miss him asked kevin.

Yes I don't know where he went but he is my only cousin heck we both share same birthdays and we were born at same time said gwen

Okay now tell me about you asked gwen

Then they both begin to know about each other.
