New chapter is here, new chapter is here!

All right, first of all, thank you for all of those who reviewed in the previous and the former chapter! I really enjoyed reading them all. The ideas were so great that I was overwhelmed by them! In short, thank you so much to the reviewers!

And I want to thank you all for waiting me for so long... Waiting until December would have been quite...tiresome...but still, thanks for waiting and leaving the reviews for encouraging me in my SAT. The results are unknown right now but will be revealed in a few days. I did my best, so I'm hoping for good news. If there aren't, I don't mind. Maybe I can try it once more...don't you think?


Tourist Trap

On the road

Harry had never been this embarrassed in his life. Grandpa Max had planned to bring them somewhere, but along the road, somehow Ben ended up making funny faces while pressing his face on the glass window. It was because of a kid in another car, who also flapped his tongue with a funny face at Ben. Harry had been watching the scene and was too embarrassed to watch more, so he decided to slam his head to the table, hoping his friend to quit the useless battle.

Gwen came over and seeing this, she insulted her cousin as usual. "I'd warn you that your face might freeze like that but, in your case, it would be an improvement."

Hearing that, Ben detached his flattened nose from the glass. But Gwen and Ben saw the kid gobbling a sandwich with his back facing them. He turned around and opened his mouth to show it all chewed up and colored green, which was revolting to watch. Luckily, Harry didn't see or even think to because he already chose to ignore them.

"Aw, man, the Seafood Special!" Ben exclaimed in disgust but soon smiled as he decided to bring up something big for the kid. "Time to pull out the secret weapon."

He gestured to the kid to wait for a moment before he ducked to hide from the kid's sight. Green light exploded for a second. Nothing happened so far, until something big, creepy, stinky bug clung onto the window, spreading slime over his mouth and screeching like a beast. It was Stinkfly. Apparently, this was the secret weapon. Ben turned into Stinkfly to scare the kid.

And of course the kid didn't know anything about him. To him, Stinkfly was just a big bug monster, which caused him to gape before screaming in shock loudly, dropping the scraps from his mouth. His scream caused his dad to look at Stinkfly, too. And funny enough, he also screamed in shock like his son and sped up his car to run away from the spot. When the car disappeared to the front, Harry narrowed his eyes at Stinkfly who was lying on the floor, laughing hard. Stinkfly kept laughing as he thought the expressions over and over, amused at his success in the prank he did.

"Ben," said Harry with a sigh. "What you have done was seriously, unbelievable."

Gwen stood beside Harry and also nagged on him. "There is such a thing as taking a joke too far, you know."

But Stinkfly didn't stop laughing and ignored them. Gwen crossed her arms and looked away in irritation, feeling displeased with her cousins's antics. Harry just stared at Stinkfly. And just as they were about to ignore him, Stinkfly shot a little amount of slime from one of his eyes onto Gwen's seat when she began to sit on it. As a result, not noticing the thing under her bottom, Gwen sat on it, feeling the smelly and sticky substance. Harry almost threw up and shot a glare at Stinkfly just like Gwen.

"Impossible," said Stinkfly with a giggle. "Funny is funny."

"And annoying is annoying," said Harry as he face-palmed in annoyance. He couldn't believe that his friend would pull out a prank like scaring the kids. Worst, he used his special powers for that. Harry wasn't the one who enjoyed the pranks. He was the one who got the pranks, usually by Dudley. Because of that, he didn't like playing pranks on others, since he knew the feeling to be bullied or be teased.

And most of all, he didn't like his very first friend to play prank on others, disturbing them. It was really childish. Very childish.

"Ben, better get up here," said Grandpa Max suddenly, and he stopped the van so sudden that Stinkfly slid to the front and therefore hit the console. "Oh, good, you're already to go." Grandpa Max said as he saw his grandson being alien, only he transformed for a prank, not rescue. "We got trouble ahead."

Harry, who frowned when he saw Stinkfly hitting the console quite hard, was now shocked as he looked at the road. A truck was hit by a propane one and thus the two vehicles blocked the road with some dents. The road was also destructed and some oil was leaking. The propane truck got overturned and it seemed the driver inside was stuck because the door was bent. The worst part was that there was a fire nearby.

"Help!" the driver inside yelled as he hit the car door which didn't move.

"The door is stuck, he can't get out!" one of the onlookers shouted to the crowd and told the situation in shock.

But that didn't help the driver in the truck and the fire was about to reach the leaked oil on the road. The closer the fire came, the more desperate he was to get out. He hit the door in panic. "Help!"

"If that propane he's hauling catches fire," said Grandpa Max, staring at Stinkfly. "That truck will become a rocket to the moon."

The next thing the group did was to make sure the people didn't notice Stinkfly coming out from the RV and were distracted by the accident. Harry, Gwen, and Grandpa Max went into the middle of the onlookers to act innocently. Stinkfly came from the sky as if he found the crash and came for the rescue. The people around gasped at the sight of a giant bug. Harry giggled at their reactions because it was funny to watch them. He then brought out his camera to take a picture of Stinkfly.

He saw his friend stepping closer to the fire but soon he backed up because it was too hot to go through. Stinkfly wasn't sure that he could bare the flames. He was a bug right now, not some larva-made humanoid. Harry stared worriedly when he saw the flames hindering his work.

"Come on, folks," said Grandpa Max as he backed the people watching Stinkfly in awe. "Give the...bug...a chance to work."

Harry rolled his eyes when he heard Grandpa Max doing best not to say his grandson's name in front of the crowd. Keeping the secret was quite hard. Especially when the secret was big and was about a boy being able to turn into 10 different aliens.

"The fire is too intense," said Stinkfly when he saw the fire. He began to regret turning into Stinkfly instead of Heatblast, to scare the boy. "Ugh... I wish I was Heatblast." Fortunately, an idea popped into his head. "Hey, that gives me an idea."

Stinkfly immediately took a flight and started shooting goo at the flames, which covered them and put them out as a result. Harry stared in awe and made sure took the scene as much as he could. The flames were getting smaller and smaller. The driver inside winced as he saw some of them hit the flames right in front of the car door. When the alien finished putting them out, he used his big, sharp tail to cut the steel roof of the truck, which was above the driver. The hole was big enough for Stinkfly to open it wide by his hands and he put it into action. Although it was a little hard to bend the steel, Stinkfly managed to rescue the driver and flew with him on his claws. The driver screamed all the way from the sky to the ground, though. Stinkfly landed safely and put the man on the ground, completing the mission.

"Mucus saves lives," commented Stinkfly, amused at his idea of putting out the fire with his goo.

"Ah!" Harry and Stinkfly looked at the boy who shouted, and flinched a bit as they recognized who he was. It was the boy who screamed at the sight of Stinkfly. He was grabbing his dad's shirt, who also saw Stinkfly. "That's the monster that ate that kid!"

Grandpa Max didn't know what to do at the kid's remark while Harry almost lost his balance in bewilderment. Stinkfly might be a monster by appearance, but he didn't eat Ben. Moreover, Stinkfly was Ben. Harry tried his best not to retort at the kid's remark.

"Whoa, look at the time," said Stinkfly as he saw the kid. "Gotta fly!"

Then, Stinkfly flew away and disappeared from everyone's sight. Unknown to the people except Gwen, Harry, and Grandpa Max, Ben returned as if nothing happened as soon as the Omnitrix timed out, and got into the Rust Bucket with no one noticed.


On the way to Sparksville

When the road was clear, the family continued their trip. Grandpa Max drove through the road with nothing but some rocky canyon or hills around. It was boring to watch but at least there were some signs on the way to the destination Grandpa Max was heading, which none of the kids didn't know.

"'You'll have a ball with IT'," Gwen read the sign and read another one on the road. "'Next exit'."

Harry just sat on the seat facing Gwen and wondered what the sign meant. If Grandpa Max had something for the kids, it made them wonder.

"Come on, grandpa," Ben said from the front seat. "At least give us a hint of what IT is."

"Ah-ah, no hints," Grandpa Max, however, refused to tell. "I've been planning this stop all summer. Well, I didn't expect it'll be three who will have a surprise."

Harry blinked as he understood what he said. Grandpa Max had been planning showing IT to the kids except Harry because the boy wasn't with them before and joined them later. "So... Does that mean-"

"Oh, don't worry, Harry," Grandpa Max cut off Harry who said quietly. "I managed to get one more ticket for IT, so you can see with your friends."

That only triggered the kids to more wonder about IT and the stop. Gwen and Harry looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders.


Sparksville

They finally arrived the stop but Grandpa Max told them to stay for a while until he said to come out. Then he got out from the Rust Bucket and opened the side door for the kids. The kids could've opened it by themselves but Max did it first, and it was quite unusual because they had never seen him so excited.

"Now, all of you," said Grandpa Max as he opened the door. "Close your eyes."

Harry didn't like to because he had once got fooled by Dudley the moment he did. But it was Grandpa Max who said this time, so he thought he would be fine to do for once. Hesitated, he slowly closed his eyes, hoping it wasn't some sort of old-fashioned, childish prank. The kids got out from the van carefully so that they wouldn't trip to each other or fell from the stairs. Once they all got out with closed eyes, Grandpa Max then told them to open their eyes.

"Okay. Open them up!" Ben, Gwen, and Harry did as they heard and saw a giant sign which said 'WELCOME TO SPARKSVILLE' in red letters. "Ta-da! Welcome to Sparksville!"

Ben, who was wondering to see where the stop was, immediately became bewildered and the kids looked around the town, raising their eyebrows.

The town was quiet and there was no people around. Most of the buildings contained something that was bigger than they could see in their lives. There was a giant statue of an animal which looked like some sort of a rabbit with antlers, which the kids could guess as a 'Jack-a-lope' since there was a sign about it near the motel. There was also a Sparksville gift shop, a hot dog restaurant with a giant hot-dog and a ketchup bottle on the roof, and so on.

"Is this place great or what?" Grandpa Max asked the kids excitedly for their responds.

"Uh..." Ben said first, looking around with his cousin and friend behind. "I'll go with 'or what'."

"Come on," said Grandpa Max. "What's more exciting than The World's Biggest Fish Bowl?"

Grandpa Max saw at the fish bowl on the roof of the structure beside the hot-dog restaurant, smiling proudly. Harry didn't find it exciting. To him, it was just the biggest fish bowl he could ever see, no more no less.

"Um, everything?" Ben said, clearly not interested in the bowl, which Harry agreed a little.

"As the mayor of Sparksville, I welcome you as seekers of wonder."

The kids looked back to figure out who would talk in such monotonous tone. They looked behind and saw a man wearing a faint blue suit. He had dark blue eyes and dirty blond hair. His eyes were hazy as if he was uninterested in everything and anything, and his hair was shaggy and all tangled. The front of his head was almost bald and he had a scraggly beard. On his neck was a black tie of string, tied in a bow. He was the one who spoke to the Tennysons and the Potter kid, so that meant he was the mayor of the town. His name was Earl.

And Harry had never thought a person could look so boring or bored.

"I know you guys are probably excited to see IT," Grandpa Max said excitedly as he handed three tickets to the kids. "So I'll go check us in."

As Grandpa Max left, the kids looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders. They hoped the town wasn't going to be as boring as its appearance. They decided to find something enjoyable by checking around the town. They went to the entrance of one of the exhibitions whose sign was written 'THE JACK-A-LOPE' in red, uneven handwriting. There were several more signs which told the readers to see Jack-a-lope inside the exhibit. Harry thought who would want to show such a weird animal so badly that they made an exhibition for it. Besides, the exhibition was old and seemed already lost its color for a long time. The kids was unsure about the building but they hoped the inside was better than the outside, so they(actually, Ben) doubtfully ringed a bell in a wooden box which Harry had seen a person standing inside to collect tickets from the visitors.

"Tickets please," said the person, coming out. However, oddly, the person here, which is usually called 'a ticket collector', was the man the kids knew well. They had just met him few minutes ago, except a grey hat. The kids were surprised to see Earl the mayor as the collector.

"I thought you were the mayor," said Ben, raising his eyebrow in confusion, but eventually gave him the tickets.

"He who wears the crown is burdened by many hats, son," The mayor-ticket collector took the tickets and replied monotonously, ripping them off. As the kids went inside in doubt and a little bit of wonder, Earl noted them, "Mind the signs."

So far, the kids spent both boring and meaningful day.

They saw a Jack-a-lope of course, since it could be seen the first. Ben didn't know why people could find it interesting. Gwen agreed, too. Harry, who decided to take pictures in exhibit and took his friends under the stuffed animal, also laughed awkwardly as he thought the same thing. Since they had seen aliens and more other weird creatures, a rabbit with antelope wasn't that eye-catching.

After seeing the Jack-a-lope, they took a picture in front of a motel whose sign had 'Motel' horizontally and 'Sideways' vertically. When Harry took a picture, the other kids somehow positioned themselves to be looked like standing on a wall; Ben standing on the left while Gwen on the right. Then Ben took a picture of Harry and Gwen standing on an American Gothic cutout.

The planetarium was Harry's favorite. It was great to see but soon the kids laughed when they saw an employee replacing a light bulb which seemed to work as a sunlight.

They also saw a giant house of cards, which Harry wondered where they get such a giant cards.

They soon get hungry, so they went to the hot-dog restaurant and bought some of them. While Harry enjoyed his first hot-dog peacefully, Ben got sprayed with ketchup and mustard by Gwen. Ben was angry of course and threw his hot-dog with a yell at Gwen who got away.

After that, they took a picture of Ben wearing sunglasses with Jack-a-lope antlers, Gwen wearing a blue cap with goggle-eyed glasses, and Harry wearing bunny ears, gathering all together. Harry almost laughed as the Tennyson kids pretended to be like a goldfish in front of the largest fishbowl. They soon became exhausted and sat on a bench while Harry also took their picture.

Finally, they arrived at their last stop; a barn that held IT inside. Taking a picture in front of the sign pointing the barn with IT, they walked closer to the barn. The mayor was also there, ready to show and explain IT to the kids.

"Through these doors lies the weirdest, wildest thing ever to find its way to Sparksville," said the mayor with no emotion in his tone.

The door opened and the kids went inside, wondering what exactly IT is. Harry didn't like walking through the dark space to IT because the inside was creepy, much to his dislike. He didn't really like dark, cramped places. Except for the Privet Drive, the barn was the last place Harry wanted to go in, even when he would play hide-and-seek if he had a chance.

"Please tell me this is IT," said Ben to the others. "Because I can't stand IT anymore."

Then, Harry saw various neon signs pointing at where the kids were heading, though ahead was pitch black. The signs were mostly green but one among them was red. When it showed for short time and went off, Harry saw a light blue neon sign with a warning written in the middle. Not only that, the kids found more warning signs about IT.

He read, "'Do not touch IT'."

"'Do not photograph IT'," Gwen read as she saw one.

"'Do not use batteries or electrical equipment anywhere near IT'," Ben read as the kids passed more signs.

The kids looked at each other in wonder and as the inside brightened enough to see around, they stopped before a sign that said 'THIS IS IT' with light bulbs around it. The kids wondered what was behind. As the sign went up, it showed a massive size of a giant, dark beige, round ball made of rubber bands.

A giant ball made of rubber bands. For most children, it was a boring, dull thing to watch. Especially when they were expecting to see something amazing and exciting. So much for the excitement.

"This is 'IT'?" Ben said in annoyance and disappointment.

Without noticing, Earl the mayor appeared right behind the kids. But appeared or not, the kids were too disappointed to notice and didn't even care.

"It's a big ball of rubber band," commented Gwen who was also disappointed.

"Just who would find their way to see this?" Harry said with a bit of irritation as he saw the ball.

"And who knows what secrets lie within," Earl muttered as he stared at IT.

"Uh... More rubber bands?" Ben guessed as a joke, not interested.

"Stay as long as you like," said the mayor, ignoring the little hero. "Mind the signs."

Then, Earl left the barn and that was when the kids started to complain about the village. They were so stressed that they needed some time to express their anger. Even Harry, who was always a bit shy and kind, couldn't help but feel completely disappointed.

"Look at this place," Ben said first since he was the most irritated among the three. "These guys are full of IT! We've been punked!"

"It is pretty lame," agreed Gwen. "I can't believe Grandpa was so excited about this place."

"I don't usually say this," Harry said with a hesitation. "But I think that Grandpa Max doesn't have a good sense of picking excitement, not to mention cooking."

Ben then made a mischievous grin and approached to the ball. He looked at the other two, which could tell visibly that he was going to do something.

"I know that look, Ben," said Gwen.

"What are you thinking?" Harry asked as he raised his eyebrow, not wanting to know what Ben was planning.

Ben just hid behind the giant ball and soon a flash of green light exploded from his spot. And soon after, the ball was lifted by a red creature with four huge muscular arms. It was Four Arms, Ben's most favorite alien.

"One good prank deserves another," said Four Arms with a grin.

The other kids would definitely nag at him for using his powers mischievously again and almost causing a trouble he couldn't even fix, but since they felt betrayed by Grandpa Max, who didn't intend to and thought the kids would find fun in Sparksville, they couldn't help but agree with Ben and made sly grins together. Even that Harry was thinking the same with Ben.

"For once," said Harry, a sly grin forming on his face. "I agree with you."

"Got something special in mind?" Gwen joined, too.

"I don't know," said Ben, and he held the rubber ball higher. "Maybe, 'the world's biggest booger'?'

The other kids, knowing Ben's sense of humor so well, giggled in satisfaction. But their laughs were gone as they saw him throwing the ball to his arm, catching, and continuing the process. It seemed very dangerous, since the ball was enormous and also seemed heavy just by looking at it.

"Careful, dweeb!" Gwen yelled in a rush. "You'll drop it!"

"You don't know what would happen if you do!" Harry shouted, his face turning pale in horror.

"Not a chance," the alien, however, snorted. "I could lift this thing three hands tied behind my-"

Right after Four Arms brought three of his arms behind his back, leaving upper right one which hold the non-amazing rubber stuff, and just before Harry could think I have a bad feeling about this, the alien lost the balance to hold the ball. And like every bad feeling would just trigger the unfortunate events, the ball fell towards Gwen and Harry who were standing nearby.

"Aah!" Gwen was the one who yelled but luckily, after mastering his abilities to change his lower half, Harry grabbed her and swept away less than a second.

But being a rubber ball, it wasn't over, because the ball bounced and smashed through the roof, leaving the kids in awkward, guilty silence.

"Oops..." Four Arms was the one who commented at his mistake as he stared up at the hole on the roof, but that didn't help the situation at all.

"You're taking all the guilt, understand?" Harry said, looking at Four Arms with narrowed eyes.

First crashing into a hot dog stand, the ball kept bouncing and reached the town. That leaded to worse conclusion, though; it went up high and high...until it started to fall towards the Jack-A-Lope statue. The kids looked at the ongoing disaster in horror. They arrived just in time after the ball hit the Jack-A-Lope and went straight towards Four Arms, who attempted to stop the bouncing rubber ball with his arms but failed as he hit a stone building by his back, the ball hitting his front and bouncing away...again. The others, who were fast and lucky enough to dodge the ball, watched the giant rubber stuff slamming into the house made of cards, shattering the work of art into...a big pile of cards. At least the ball finally stopped not far away.

However, one alien and two human kids present didn't seem to care about that as they went closer to the ball on the pile of few giant cards. They felt horrible. The rubber sphere destroyed some of the exhibitions and they might be scolded for the mishap. Not only did they ignore the warning signs, but they were responsible for what they had caused; the incidents. All because of one boy in alien body.

As Four Arms knelt while staring at the ball, Gwen suddenly slapped his right shoulder in a swift move. The sound caused by the contact between a hand and a massive size of shoulder also caused the raven-haired wizard to flinch a little. It didn't hurt the alien with a thick skin that much, but it was strong enough for him to feel the stinging sensation.

"Ow!" Four Arms cried out and looked at his cousin. "What was that for?!"

"For turning me into a criminal!" Gwen yelled as she pointing herself with her thumb, glaring at the four-armed giant. "Including Harry, I mean!"

For once, Harry was a little happy to see her slapping his friend. He looked at the ball then at his friends as Four Arms stood up from the ground with his signature grin.

"Don't get your shorts in a twist," said Four Arms, while Harry was a little confused. "I'll just put everything back the way it was. No problem."

With Four Arms' size and strength, it would be no problem to put everything in their place. It was lucky Ben chose to be Four Arms since Harry didn't want to imagine what would happen instead if he was Heatblast. Not only that, he didn't want to let the eldest Tennyson witness the whole situation caused by Ben. While imagining Grandpa Max's anger and disappointment towards them, Harry would've sighed guiltily, if he didn't hear the familiar sound coming from the giant alien's left shoulder, making his head jerk in tense. The grey and white hourglass symbol blinked in red and was alarming countdown, sound getting lower as it beeped. As it reached to the lowest note in few seconds, Ben was reverted back to his human self while Gwen and Harry stared at him helplessly and closed their eyes to avoid the blinding red flash.

"Okay... Maybe, a little problem," said Ben, putting his left hand on the ball and slightly leaning against it.

Harry managed to suppress the anger that almost demanded him to scream like a beast, gritting his teeth. "I really, REALLY, hate it when that happens."

Unknown to the kids, the Omnitrix was covered by small amounts red electricity and strangely, it sent some to the rubber ball. Unfortunately, the kids didn't even consider the matter as they all ran away(Harry accidentally turning his legs half-XLR8 as he wanted to run) from the spot, so they didn't see the red electricity slowly covering and snaking through the surface of the giant ball.

The kids all stood in front of the motel, contemplating how to solve their trouble they had done in the village.

"What are we going to tell grandpa?" Gwen said in guilt and fear.

"Nothing," suggested Ben. "We just play dumb."

"Easy for you," argued Gwen. "You're lot better at it than I am."

"Including me," said Harry. "I'm not good at playing dumb. One wrong move, we're doomed. Is that even a solution?"

Back at the Dursleys, no matter how much he pretended that he didn't caused an accident, which he caused much more less than Dudley since he usually stayed quiet and Dudley mostly wandered around, he was the one who got the punishment, even when Dudley was supposed to. He was even punished by the Dursleys when his cousin caused all of the accident that day, his uncle claiming that it was Harry's fault to have Dudley cause trouble. What a nonsense.

Anyways, the kids couldn't think anymore other solutions, so they decided to follow Ben's and anxiously went into the motel where everything inside was turned on their side. Beds, doors, and other pieces of furniture was stuck on the left wall which seemed to be decorated as a supposed floor. On the left wall, there were some lights, which made it look like a ceiling. The floor and the ceiling of room was decorated as a wall with windows and other things, though the windows on the floor seemed useless since it showed nothing but a soil. It was as if the house was fallen to its sides with its insides sticking in their place.

Pushing the door which fell opened downwards, the kids looked around the room anxiously, dumbfounded at the way the room looked like.

"Hey, there you are," Grandpa Max said, not noticing he startled the kids. "Isn't this place a riot?"

"Why? What'd you see?" Gwen said in a hurry, fearing for her grandfather already discovering the incident. She shook her head in fear. "We don't know anything about it."

"She means it's great, grandpa," Harry cut off as he heard Gwen's unfamiliarity at lying.

"Can't wait to check out the bathroom," Ben continued and slightly pushed his cousin to his side, smiling innocently.

While the kids were trying their best to hide the cause, there was another one who was trying its best to do whatever it was doing. A bright yellow electricity flashed and flickered, coming from the rubber band ball. It soon shot out from the giant sphere, snaked up the telephone pole nearby, followed the lines, circled around the stuffed Jack-A-Lope a few times until it reached the head, and finally smashed through the 'L' of the 'WELCOME TO SPARKSVILLE' sign, which was now 'WE COME TO SPARKSVILLE' sign.

Then a little creature that resembled a battery with limbs came out from nowhere and looked at the sign it messed up in amusement. Its eyes were flickering with bright yellow electricity and making some of it in the midair. It had a big lightning-bolt shaped marking on its body and plus and minus symbols drawn on its neck and butt, just like batteries. Its limbs were black and had two black and yellow projects on each arm, which also made the same electricity.

It laughed in high-pitched squeak and chirp before changing into a big bolt of light and disappearing.


The Next Morning

Another day was away. A day full of both boredom and incidents caused by three kids...mostly one kid with an alien wristwatch. And those kids had had a trouble sleeping in beds that were stuck on a wall but eventually managed to sleep by 'hanging on the bed' with blankets holding around them. It was wonder how they could not fall off.

Until...

"What the heck happened here?"

Grandpa Max's exclaim from the outside woke Harry and Gwen up in surprise, causing them to fall from their bed, followed by Ben who also gasped in fear.

"He knows everything! We are so busted!" Gwen said in hurry, feeling guilt and fear both inside her. "We have to come clean; Tell grandpa everything."

"Sometimes it's hard to believe you're really a kid," remarked Ben, rolling his eyes. "'Never admit anything' until you absolutely have to, got it?"

"Or until Grandpa Max pressed us for answer...an honest one, that is," Harry pointed out, muttering.

"Benjamin, Gwendolyn, Harry," called Grandpa Max. "Get out here."

As they heard their names, each kid tensed up in anxiousness. They feared that what they had done was caught and it seemed the oldest Tennyson had found out. Harry could know that since he hadn't heard Grandpa Max calling Gwen 'Gwendolyn'.

"Gwendolyn?" Gwen said out loud in horror, sensing a grim mood around. "We're doomed."

Though his name was normally called like usual since his name was just 'Harry', the boy didn't like to go out. However, as the kids were out of the mall, their eyes became immediately as wide as a fish.

The village was in a total mess. Buildings got cracks, glasses were shattered, cars were flipped upside down, telephone poles were fallen, and roads were covered in phone lines with dangerous sparks, cut for unknown reason. Some of the exhibitions were broken, damaged, or destroyed, their parts scattering around everywhere. The kids knew the damage wasn't this serious before they had left the area. They were sure something else did.

"Whoa, what happened?" Ben asked as they found Grandpa Max with a serious frown.

"I don't know," said Grandpa Max, looking the village in disaster. "Looks like a tornado tore through here overnight."

"Good," Ben said without thinking, feeling relieved that his grandpa hadn't figured out their mishaps, but quickly removed his grin and made up excuses to hide his unintended blurting as the other three stared at him. "I, I mean... Yeah, it was just one of those...freaky nature things, right Gwen?

"I-It better be, because I don't want any more unusual...alien problems," Harry added, hoping Grandpa Max wouldn't figured out and got mad at them. "I'm...kind of tired of those things. Nature disasters are...a little better."

Half was true. Ever since Harry and the Tennysons had encountered the alien bounty hunters, the little boy's interest towards the outer space was slightly diminished in fear. Not only did the hunters, but also the guess by Tetrax, who once tried to retrieve the Omnitrix while impersonating a bounty hunter but soon left it to Ben as he acknowledged his skills, sure did scare Harry...literally. Thinking about the future when the stories of Harry and his abilities were spread wide through the galaxy and expecting a whole lot of aliens desired to have him for themselves. No wonder Harry was fearing the outer space, which was his best liking.

As Grandpa Max removed his gaze, Gwen and Harry scowled at Ben who almost revealed what they had done.

Then, Earl came by with his usual monotonous tone. "I think it's pretty clear who's responsible for these juvenile acts."

"Juvenile acts?" Grandpa Max questioned and began to shoot suspicious look on the nervous kids who were in cold sweat. "Huh, if I didn't know better, that sounds like-"

"Oh, I'm not talking about these youngsters," said the mayor.

"You're not?" Grandpa Max, plus three kids, all said in union, kids exclaiming in surprise.

The oldest looked at the three in suspicion, who made an awkward fake smile.

"Yeah, well, if they didn't do it...who did?" Grandpa Max said, still having his doubts.

As someone heard the question, a small flash of yellow electric light went past him and towards the kids who were stunned at the phenomenon. Harry could barely see its full appearance as it continuously appeared everywhere and made funny signatures near three, such as behind Ben's legs, near Harry's arm, behind Gwen's waist, near Ben's right shoulder, on top of Gwen's head, and Harry's left shoulder. Then it appeared on Gwen's left side, taunting her by sticking its tongue at her and flipping her shirt over her head. The girl was irritated, so she adjusted her clothes, only to find it already disappeared.

Then it went behind Ben. It tapped his right shoulder and as the boy looked at the direction, the annoying creature appeared and went to his left, sticking its tongue before disappearing. But Harry didn't have to search for it since he saw it flying behind him. He didn't expect something big because even himself find it annoying but unworthy to pick a fight. However, he also didn't expect it suddenly pinching and zapping his left wrist, which he reacted in pain and slapped the creature away from him, rubbing his sore wrist. The creature, which had been grinning all the while, made a frown for the first time, squeaked in rage, and soon was out of sight.

"Okay," said Harry, not feeling well as he rubbed his wrist a little more. "What was that?"

"Megawatt," was the simple reply.

"Mega...what?" Ben asked.

"Exactly," said Earl. "Normally wrapped up tight inside of...IT. That is, until last night."

The kids looked at each other awkwardly, clearly figuring out they were responsible for Megawatt's escape. Harry, who was still unhappy at the pain the creature had caused, finally stopped rubbing his wrist and paid attention to the mayor.

"Some say it might be a ball of lighting came alive, others think it's static cling run amok," the mayor continued and shrugged." Tough to say."

"Maybe it's an alien," guessed Gwen, which the other kids immediately seemed to agree at.

"Alien? That's just plain kooky talk," Earl replied, not believing space creatures.

"Believe her," muttered Harry. "We've seen aliens way more than normal people could've seen in their lives."

They soon found Megawatt looking at a soda machine and making an evil grin. It suddenly went inside the machine, which began to shake itself dangerously and was covered in the same electricity.

"What's it doing?" Ben asked, flinching a little as the machine began to vibrate more fiercely.

"It eats electricity," Earl answered. "The more it gobbles, the more powerful he gets."

"Why does that sound dangerous?" Harry said anxiously as he looked at the machine.

Harry's wonder didn't have to be responded. The machine started to shoot various kinds of soda cans along with electricity, sending the cans everywhere dangerously. People except the mayor, who didn't seem to mind them at all, covered their heads from the flying cans. No one didn't find it fun.

"Of course, it does," said Earl unconcernedly, not caring even if one of the soda cans flew over his shoulder. "It's also got a dangerous sense of humor."

Harry wished he could forget what he just asked. As the machine began to increase the amount of cans to fire away, the Tennysons, the Potter, and the mayor couldn't help but hid behind one of the overturned cars. One of the cans hit the belly of the car, which caused a little but dangerous explosion.

"You left that thing inside a rubber band ball all this time?" Grandpa Max asked the mayor, looking at the cans in concern and then at the mayor. "Isn't that kind of dangerous?"

"Not so long as people minded the signs," the mayor answered, eyeing at the kids.

The kids just eyed at each other, not willing to owe up. Until...

"Alright, we did it! We're guilty!" ...Ben said by himself.

"So much for 'Admit nothing'!" Gwen yelled in irritation.

"And you expect to play dumb when you give up so easily?!" Harry also complained, not wanting to believe Ben just admitted his actions, but soon apologized to the oldest Tennyson guiltily. "We're so sorry, Grandpa Max."

"We're going to talk about this later, you three," replied Grandpa Max with a frown, and then looked at the mayor. "But for now, how do we stop this thing, mister mayor?"

"Whatcha mean 'we'?" the mayor said and sit down on a nearby bench, munching a straw of hay. "You let it out, you catch it."

The family peeked out from behind of the vehicle, only to find something in fire falling and exploding near them. Harry covered his ears because he didn't like the large noise. He knew they were responsible for letting Megawatt out from its own rubber prison. If anyone had to catch the creature, the kids should be the ones.

He thought about speed in order to change his legs and said to the Tennysons. "I'll distract that electric evildoer. Turn into something useful, Ben!"

"Harry," said Grandpa Max, unable to suppress his shock. "No!"

Then, Harry shot out from the behind of the vehicle. When his legs became XLR8, unlike when he was fully human, he had to skate while running. So, after mastering his lower half's ability, he'd been skating as if he had wheels on his feet, which he did...literally.

When he pushed the soil to skate away, however, he didn't expect not only his sight changing, but also his face hitting the ground. He quickly got up, spitting some sand from his mouth. His glasses became also blurry by some sand and he was busy cleaning them, so he let out a yelp as Grandpa Max grabbed his shoulder and dragged him to the behind of the same vehicle.

The Tennysons and Harry, who finally knew what happened, just looked at each other. Harry then looked at his legs, his shock and confusion written all over his face.

"What...just happened?" Ben asked.

"Beats me," Gwen replied in confusion.

Harry wasn't the only one who didn't understand the situation. All four stared at his legs. Nothing special happened. None at all. Harry was still Harry himself.

His legs hadn't transformed.


Few minutes later

Megawatt finally stopped its attack...for now. Feeling a little bit safer, the Tennysons and the Potter got out from their hiding spot and began to search for the little creature. Earl said the kids were the ones who let it out, so they were to catch it again. The kids felt butterflies in their stomach. They hadn't seen a creature, or an alien, with natural electrical powers. And they had to find and recapture it by themselves.

Luckily, Grandpa Max decided to help them because without any adult's help or advice, it would be much more difficult for the three teenagers to recapture Megawatt. Still, Harry felt terrible. 1) They didn't follow the rules in the first place because they were bored, 2) they lied to Grandpa Max, and 3) most of all, they had no idea how to recapture it. None of the aliens Ben can transform into had powers related to electricity. Gwen's knowledge wasn't very helpful, which only contained how to deal with a jellyfish or an electric eel. Harry was the one who tried to catch Megawatt with his speed, but somehow he failed to.

It wasn't because he wasn't fast enough to catch it. Nor because he lost it. The reason was way more simple, but caused everyone in the Tennyson to gasp in utter shock.

His powers to dash, suddenly vanished. In short, Harry wasn't able to change his legs into XLR8's. He was just what he was.

So the family had no choice but to search the creature by their own.

"Should we try to lure it out with some batteries or something?" Gwen suggested as she carefully walked while turning around every direction in case Megawatt appeared.

Harry thought it was worth a try, so though he didn't want to, he pulled out his camera and slowly shook it in hopes Megawatt could spot it. "Here, Tinker Bell, here's a fresh digital camera you might want for a dessert!"

The creature was close by, however, slithering along the phone lines in the air. It found the Tennysons wandering the town and chirped evilly. It landed on one of the streetlights, waiting for its chance. As Megawatt saw Grandpa Max walking nearby, it circled around the streetlight and went down. Soon it quietly sneaked into Max's jeans. Unaware of the creature hiding inside his clothes, the oldest Tennyson just kept finding it until the creature grabbed his underwear and...

"Ah! That's not funny!" Grandpa Max was hanging in midair with Megawatt giving him a wedgie, a painful, unfunny prank for males to have, by pulling their underwear up from the back. "Ooh, it's just painful."

Harry blinked in bewilderment as he saw Megawatt above. Grandpa Max was fine for the last five minutes and in a blink, he was got a wedgie. The boy knew the feeling when he got the same prank. Dudley often did it to him. It was embarrassing and also painful. He winced at the thought and the sight of Grandpa Max. He decided not to like Megawatt unlike the aliens in the Omnitrix. At least Ben used them for the good, though sometimes for his own goods.

But this time, he dialed the Omnitrix for the former reason, irritated to see the little yellow annoyance playing fun with his grandfather.

"Don't worry, grandpa," said Ben, scrolling the dial. "I know just the hero to deal with the troublemaker like this."

Ben pressed the dial and was engulfed by the blinding green light. Harry wondered what kind of alien would be useful when it came to fight with an electric opponent. Four Arms, Heatblast, or XLR8 seemed to be the best option, though Four Arms was slightly slower than the others. Wildmutt could be, too, but the little boy wasn't sure if the beast could catch the smell of it. Diamondhead didn't seem to work right now because he was the slowest as he was made of crystal rock. Ripjaws? Worst. There were no water around the Sparksville in miles. Stinkfly? Maybe, but Harry didn't think the bug's goo would be helpful if it couldn't hit the creature of lightning speed. Grey Matter was smart, but they needed a trap, not a plan. Ghostfreak would do well. Ben could use its powers to trap Megawatt with a rubber cloth or something while he was invisible.

But it seemed luck didn't work for Harry. As the light disappeared, standing on Ben's spot was none other than Upgrade, a humanoid-shaped morphing creature with green circuit lines all over the black upper part of its body, and white lower part along with the same grey and white hourglass symbol.

"Why go Upgrade?" Harry asked as he raised his eyebrow in confusion.

"It's complicated," Upgrade explained in his same but more metallic undertone of Ben, his eye blinking green every time he spoke. "You wouldn't understand."

Harry saw Megawatt releasing Max's underwear, so though he wanted to ask more questions, he hurriedly ran to the elderly and helped him up.

Meanwhile, Gwen stood beside his alien cousin with a playful sneer. "Watch didn't let you change into what you wanted to, did it?"

"Shut up," Upgrade snapped, the green ring in the center of his head changing its form into a form of an angry eye.

Megawatt didn't waste another time to pull another prank. It snaked up around a large ketchup bottle nearby and its static somehow caused it to bubble and rise to the top, pushing the cap and exploding like a volcano. The cap flew to a giant stuffed doll and sliced its neck. The head fell down and a man below screamed, running away to avoid being crushed. Megawatt cackled at his own job with proud, standing on top of the bottle, where some ketchup running down.

The boys thought they had to do something otherwise the town would be destroyed inside out. Ben as Upgrade hurriedly went towards the ball and climbed to the top before rolling it. Harry decided to help by protecting the other people by using his magical shields. However, he felt he was useless as he couldn't transform into half-XLR8. He looked at Megawatt who found Upgrade coming with its old cage.

"Okay, twinkle toes," said Upgrade, rolling the rubber ball to trap the creature once again. "Time to go home."

To everyone's shock, some of the rubber band from the ball were slightly cut by some sharp rocks and pebbles on the ground and since the ball was rolled away, they were shot away to everywhere. Some hit a few signs. Some hit cars. The width of rubber bands was the size of human's head, so the moment they hit an object, it made a crack or a huge damage. Some of them flew towards some people around, who covered their heads in fear and evacuated from their spot.

Harry hurriedly ran over to a girl who fell, and created a shield to protect her from the giant rubber bands. The bands were strong enough to create a crack on the shield but Harry hold long enough for a mother to arrive and pick up her daughter. She thanked the boy, who nodded with a kind smile.

Gwen also ducked but stayed, yelling at her cousin. "Hey, doofus! Whose side are you on?!"

"Is it just me," Earl said, holding a bag of popcorn, as if he didn't care anything happening in the village. "Or is there a lot of excitement today?"

A boy with freckles and crimson hair was sitting beside Earl and didn't say anything when the mayor just simply munched on some of the popcorn.

Harry was also dumbfounded as he saw the mayor. While they were busy dealing with Megawatt, it seemed he didn't care his village that much.

Megawatt flew above Upgrade, who seemed embarrassed at his own catastrophe. It flicked its tongue at the alien as a tease, and then it laughed like there was no tomorrow. This caused Upgrade to fume, his only eye not only showing anger, but also glowing and flickering green. Ben felt something charging up inside himself. As he felt his eye heating up, he accidentally shot out a bright green laser from his eye. Megawatt stopped its laugh and avoided the laser that almost burned its tiny waist. Its expression seemed surprised. Even Ben himself was surprised, too. Harry gaped. Who knew the alien with highly upgrading program in its skin and body was capable to do such thing?

"Whoa, that's new!" Upgrade exclaimed in surprise and happiness. Then he glared at the little devil. "Not so funny now, is it?"

Harry was still blaming himself for not taking the photo of Upgrade shooting the laser, yet Megawatt just chortled as if it didn't see the laser threatening. It disappeared from his sight again, but Upgrade was able to catch the flick of its light and ran towards it. However, the little creature was too fast for Upgrade to catch up as it continuously flew everywhere and appeared behind Upgrade, enjoying to mock the alien. Upgrade was annoyed and tried to catch it, but the little creature was still too fast. Fortunately, he got a chance to grab it while it was busy mocking him. Unfortunately, Megawatt was like a living battery, so the moment Upgrade touched it, it let out a huge pulse of electricity, shocking Upgrade and sending him a few feet away, much to his dismay.

"Ugh!" Upgrade groaned, his head sizzling electrically and whole body covered by some smoke. "Okay, do not touch the electrical guy when you're made of living metal..."

"Not even when you're made of human skin," commented Harry, avoiding the electricity as Megawatt changed its target to him.

"How are we gonna ground that electric devil?" Grandpa Max wondered with a frown, seeing his grandson having trouble in the battle.

Suddenly, Max's words had Gwen come with an idea. "Grandpa, you're genius!"

"Well, thank you, Gwen," said Grandpa Max, before adding, "Why?"

Harry ducked his head and avoided Megawatt once again. He didn't dare to touch the creature unless he had rubber gloves in his hands. Upgrade was electrified and seemed received a heavy damage. If alien's injury was that severe, he didn't want to think what would happen when Megawatt attacked a human.

"That's it!" Upgrade yelled as he got up and stood near sewer lid. "I'm pulling the plug on this guy's pranks!"

Harry looked at Upgrade in wonder before founding Megawatt coming towards him in lightning speed. In a feverish haste, he created a shield. Megawatt didn't expect such thing, so its head slammed into the shield so hard that it made a huge Bang. The creature felt stars flying around its head and floated dizzily. It rubbed its head in pain, its electricity from its body flickering yellow and green.

Harry was slightly sorry for Megawatt. Even though the creature was a trouble maker, he didn't want it to suffer from such painful experience.

"Hey, sparky, catch!" Upgrade, seeing his chance, picked up a sewer lid and threw towards Megawatt.

To Harry's shock, it cut Megawatt, who was still in daze and didn't seem to notice the lid, directly in half. Harry almost threw up if he didn't see both halves suddenly covered in rings of electricity, yellow on the left green on the right. Though he still wasn't pleasured to see alien be sliced in half, the boy found the rings so familiar. His eyes widened as he remembered. But when both of the Megawatt's halves regenerated into two separate Megawatts, Upgrade and Harry both gasped in shock. If Upgrade had a mouth, he would gaped like Harry.

Both Megawatts, yellow and green, looked at themselves before looking at each other. Seeing nothing harmful to themselves occurred, the yellow one cackled and pointed at its other self. The green one, however, didn't seem to find it funny or enjoyable. It just raised its eye in confusion.

"O...kay, so that wasn't the best idea," muttered Upgrade, before hearing count-downing beep from his chest and reverting back to human form.

The yellow Megawatt grinned at this and flew towards Ben, shooting its electrical beams. Harry was able to went in front of Ben and defended it with his shield. But Megawatt kept sending its power to the barrier. With Omnitrix still recharging, Ben did his best to pump the magic in his veins, so he could assist his friend. Besides, when he had no Omnitrix, he had to use the magic. That was what he learned after he had seen Harry captured by one of the alien bounty hunters. His experience through the hunters made him think to use both of his powers, transformation and magic, wisely. Though he didn't have a chance to use the latter one in the battle these days.

Anyway, back to the boys' situation, the boys were shocked to see coming up next. The green Megawatt, which had been quiet all the while, suddenly flew over and slammed its body towards the other one, stopping its attack. The green Megawatt then started to point its finger at the other, squeaking like a scolding cousin. The other seemed as confused as the human boys, but soon laughed and shrugged it off. Then the yellow Megawatt electrified the green one, sending it to Harry's abdomen.

The wizard let out a painful groan as he fell, and grabbed his stomach, the green Megawatt on his shirt. "Ugh..."

Ben placed his hand on Harry's shoulder with worry. "You okay?"

Harry just nodded and looked at the green creature which surprisingly glowed in bright green. It stirred and woke up in surprise. Megawatt then looked at the boys and floated up, blinking with wide eyes. It gave another glance at Harry before disappearing.

Seeing the green Megawatt gone, Harry and Ben looked at each other in confusion. The Megawatt, which had a dangerous sense of humor according to the mayor, attacked its own self? They didn't understand a bit.

But they didn't have more time to think when Megawatt continued to attack at the boys. Luckily, a big truck carrying a massive size of thermometer honked so loud that the boys looked at it in surprise. As it stopped right beside them, the door flew open and revealed Grandpa Max, who grabbed both boys and threw to the passengers' seat, right next to Gwen. Then he drove away.

"Grandpa!" Ben shouted. "What are you doing?"

"Giving these sparklers a science lesson they won't forget!" Grandpa Max said firmly.

The oldest Tennyson sped up and the yellow Megawatt immediately followed the truck, thinking it would be fun to pull a perfect prank on the vehicle. Meanwhile, the green one, which wasn't glowing green anymore, stood on a roof and looked at its yellow counterpart chasing the truck. It made a sad frown and changed into a bolt of light, zipping away to somewhere.

Meanwhile, the yellow one kept chasing the truck as if it wanted to pull a prank on it so badly. However, that was the plan.

"Hey, Mega-weirds!" Gwen yelled at her behind, pushing a lever in front of her. "Come and get us!"

The lever was for the platform below the thermometer. It triggered its one side to rise up, causing the thermometer to slide down from the platform. Megawatt didn't seem to care about this. It was too concentrated on catching up the truck. As the thermometer hit the ground, it stuck into the soil right in front of the arrogant battery. Megawatt finally became surprised and hurriedly braked itself but it was too late. It hit the top of the giant thermometer and was forcefully turned into a bolt of electricity, following down the thermometer and flowing into the ground.

"What happened?" Ben asked Gwen, while Harry just stared at the whole scene in disbelief.

"We just used the biggest thermometer as a lightning rod," replied Gwen with a proud smile. Then she tapped her head with her finger, which Ben made a scowl at in jealousy and irritation. "Who needs an alien superhero when you've got good old-fashioned brain power?"

"Whoa," Harry was amazed to hear science sounding so magical. "Even science can be so awesome."

"'Course the ground is basically just one big conductor," Earl came over and pointed out.

"What does that mean?" Ben wondered.

"Oh, no...!" Gwen let out a gasp as she understood what the mayor was saying. "It means that Megawatt is just zipping around underground until it find some way to get back to the surface."

That news shocked everyone except the mayor. Moreover, as if adding fuel to the flames, every single phones except the cellphones started to ring loudly. The village was filled with the sound of the phones ringing. Harry thought the sound was engulfing the whole town, maybe the whole area. They could see the yellow spark in every phones.

Grandpa Max noticed immediately, his eyes widened in pure shock. "It's in the underground phone-lines...!"

Harry covered his ears. "I don't like this at all."

Harry could have sworn he saw one of his old nightmares which he couldn't recall. Though he wasn't sure he saw such nightmare before, he thought this reality was worse. He spotted the Megawatt coming out from one of the receiver, which cackled evilly.


Another few minutes later

Harry, along with the rest of the townspeople, watched helplessly as the yellow devil kept doing its own mischief. It roamed the road and went past some of the undamaged tires from some cars. Its heat melted the tires and soon punctured all of them. Megawatt didn't stop there. It also went to the transformer on one of the telephone poles, and heated it up until it exploded. A building nearby was flickering yellow, its lights being out of control. Megawatt also touched one fire hydrant and the water spurted out, which soon fell like a rain. Megawatt seemed so pleased at its job. Only this creature was pleased.

The others were not. Not at all.

"Uh-oh, now they reaally did it," said one of the villagers.

Harry's shoulder went down in shame. However, Ben snickered at his cousin.

"Ben Tennyson," Gwen warned, not in the mood to handle her cousin's tease. "Don't say a word."

"Hey, I'm just glad I wasn't the one who screwed up this time," was Ben's retort.

One of the building exploded from the inside. Grandpa Max flinched in surprise while Ben just smiled innocently at Gwen. Gwen wanted to snap, but Ben was right. This time, Gwen seemed to worsened the situation. She was only trying to trap the Megawatt into the ground. But Megawatt used the conductive underground as its own playground and messed up all of the telephones in the village. Now Sparksville was nothing but a total mess.

Harry also felt terrible. Although he had no idea of how or why his transformation suddenly didn't work, he thought he was guilty because he didn't recapture Megawatt sooner. If his legs had changed just like he wanted, maybe the town wouldn't be ruined this bad. He still couldn't understand why he couldn't become half-XLR8.

Suddenly, a huge bolt of electricity snaked up a giant hot dog stand and revealed dozens of Megawatts. They rubbed their tummy as they ate every spark of electricity in the village. In satisfaction, they all let out a loud sonic scream, causing everyone present to cover their ears from becoming deaf. Only the mayor didn't seem to be affected as he just kept eating popcorn.

The scream was loud enough to break a glass container filled with giant toothpicks. These were sharp at both end, so it would be a horrible sight when it hit people.

Grandpa Max knew this well, so he hurriedly shouted to people as he saw toothpicks flying over. "Everybody move!"

Everybody evacuated the area in a hurry. Surprisingly, Earl didn't respond a little bit or stand up from the bench. Plus, the toothpicks stuck into the ground dangerously, not a single one hitting or scratching the monotonous man. The man didn't even flinch when one of them stuck right above the bench he was sitting.

"There goes the world's largest toothpicks," was the mayor's plain reaction, which was merely about worrying over one of the village's exhibition. "Oh, the humanity."

The Megawatts burst out laughing as the saw the scene and disappeared again. Harry was really annoyed by the creatures. What they were doing for their own fun was now threatening others' lives.

Even Grandpa Max didn't approve of this. "Those creeps' idea of good clean fun is gonna have us all pushin' up daisies."

"Pushing...what?" Harry asked.

"It'll let us all go to heaven," explained Grandpa Max simply.

"Uh..." said Harry, dumbfounded. "That was a harsh but best way to describe those batteries."

"Don't just stand there, doofus!" Gwen, meanwhile, said to Ben, who was working on the Omnitrix. "Dial up, or...cast up...some help!"

"Duh, like I haven't been trying?" Ben said back in irritation as he showed the red device. "And I still have no idea how to conjure completely!"

"I told you to practice!" Gwen shouted.

"Alright, I'm too lazy to practice my magic, happy?!" Ben yelled back.

"KNOCK IT OFF, YOU TWO!" Harry shouted in pure irritation. "We're having several devils of lightning on the loose and you think it's time to argue for a magic?! We may talk about that later but for now, TRY THINKING ELSE!

The Tennysons were taken back by surprise. Harry was a usually quiet and shy boy. They hadn't seen him so angry until now. But it was understandable. Harry thought Sparksville was boring and agreed with Ben playing with the rubber band ball. That led to a little destruction of the village, which Harry felt guilt for. Then they found that they were responsible for letting Megawatt from the ball, or its prison, which increased Harry's feeling of guilt. Megawatt, now Megawatts, continued to bring chaos in the village, which caused Harry to hate the creatures and blamed himself for his uselessness.

It was hard to explain the whole amount of stress Harry had. But it was clear that Harry had finally reached his limit. Seeing his friends arguing over something else, it made his inside erupt like a volcano.

While the Tennysons looked at each other in shame, there was a thundering noise coming out from nowhere. It turned out one of the Megawatts standing on a fallen statue of Jack-A-Lope, was saying something in their language and using its own electric power to send messages to its coworkers. The other creatures followed its gestures. After murmuring some kind of unknown words, they all disappeared, leaving a flash of yellow light.

Ben scratched his head in confusion as the village became quiet suddenly. "Uh... Where'd they go?"

"I don't know..." Grandpa Max said as a small thunder roared. "But I don't think it's good."

Max's guess was right. When there was an earthquake happening in the middle of a village, there was no way it was a good sign, which happened right after the oldest Tennyson finished his sentence. One of the building exploded and the Tennysons plus Potter stepped back in slight fear. As the smoke cleared out, a giant with a planet head, hands and feet stomped out, covered by yellow electricity. It stumbled a bit but soon seemed to maintain its balance before walking off. Harry gaped and looked at the thing for a while along with the others.

"Well, there's somethin' you don' see everyday," one of the residents came over and commented. "They brought that planetarium exhibit to life."

"Worst. Exhibit. Ever." Harry, after calming down, said.

"Come on, we'll head it off in the-" Grandpa Max said but couldn't finish the sentence as he saw his van.

The Rust Bucket's tires were all removed with some bricks holding it up. Green paint was drawn all sides of the vehicle, smiley faces and a sentence with awful grammars. Without the tires, it was clear that it wasn't able to follow the Megawatts controlling the planetarium giant.

"Oh, my..." Grandpa Max muttered quietly.

"'U am Lame'?" Ben read the sentence on the side of the vehicle, then snorted. "That's weak!"

"And don't even get me started on the grammar and the spelling," said Gwen, not amused at the prank Megawatt did.

Even Harry smiled with a snort. For once, he found Megawatts so childish. Not even Dudley was this childish... Harry shook his head. No. Dudley was way more stupid and childish than Megawatts. The creatures could pull this sort of prank, but Harry's big fat cousin was just too idiot to even bring some. Compared to Dudley, Megawatts artwork was just a child's play.

Suddenly, there was a squeak. The kids and adults all turned their heads to the source and found out that a certain Megawatt was floating in front of the now alive exhibition, charging up its own green electricity.

"A Megawatt?" Gwen said in wonder.

"It seems," agreed Max. "But something's weird. That one is quite different than the other ones."

Ben and Harry looked at each other. They recognized the different Megawatt. It was the same one that suddenly turned green after Upgrade accidentally cut one Megawatt in half, the halves then regenerating into two different selves. However, its personality seemed changed, too, as it kept bothering its yellow self. The green Megawatt didn't do anything harmful towards the boys, not even towards others except the yellow ones.

Green Megawatt sparked itself to stop the Megawatts inside the exhibition, but they didn't listen to it. It raised one of the planet hand and slammed towards the other. The green Megawatt barely dodged it and was flown away by the impact, hitting a wall nearby. The giant didn't stop there and raised its arm again in attempt to finish the Megawatt in green. The creature passed out and wasn't moving.

Harry gasped in shock and didn't waste any time to rush towards the little green creature. Ben followed, too. They heard Gwen and Max calling behind them but didn't care.

Ben stood beside the giant and called it out. "Hey!"

The exhibition paused and seemed to look at the boy, while Harry found his way to grab the Megawatt and run away from the giant. The Megawatts, however, witnessed the scene and raised its foot to kick the boy. Harry looked back and ran as fast as he could. But its foot was right above him. Just before the planet could crush the little boy's head, Ben pulled him away. They groaned but soon looked up to see the giant staring down at them. The people just silently watched them.

The electrical giant raised its foot again. Ben, feeling suddenly terrified, couldn't think of something and just went in front of Harry, hoping him to be safe. Harry also felt the same and pressed the little creature in his hands to his chest and closed his eyes. At the moment the planet foot shot down, Ben's fear caused him to raise his left arm with the Omnitrix. What he didn't even know was a tiny green spark on the device and suddenly bursting out a huge energy field. To everyone's surprise, it resulted in a electric green barrier around the boys, blocking the foot. Even Ben was taken by surprise and lowered his arm, which caused the barrier to fade away after a few flickers. The robot lost its balance as the mysterious wall disappeared. Ben gasped with wide eyes. All of a sudden, Harry groaned in pain and clutched his forehead before his eyes glowed bright green and released a pair of green laser beam, sending the robot several feet away. Ben's jaw fell open but soon snapped out of his shock, dragging Harry, who closed his eyes due to a severe dizziness, to the closest broken car to hide.

The robot stood up and looked around for the boys, only to find none of them. It tilted its head in confusion but shrugged off, stomping out from the sight. As the sound of the giant's footsteps decreased, the boys came out from their hiding spot, seeing the exhibit walking off from the sight. Harry and Ben sighed in relief. They looked at Megawatt in Harry's hand, which woke up and chirped in pain, glowing bright green again. Harry soothed its back with his thumb, Gwen and the others coming over to see the creature. The creature curled up itself and made a sad expression that looked sorry, holding Harry's other thumb.

"A green Megawatt?" Gwen asked in awe.

"Yep," said one of the residents. "And this one seems behaved itself, compared to his brothers."

The others agreed. The green one was too good for a Megawatt. However, some of them still didn't like it as they witnessed what the Megawatts have done.

Grandpa Max, however, was focusing on the matter about Harry. He looked at his face and his eyes widened in utter surprise. "You okay, Harry?"

Harry shook his head to ignore the throbbing pain in his head, mainly in his right eye. "My head's ringing."

Gwen then looked Harry's face and yelped in surprise. "Harry! Your-"

"What?" Harry asked, still holding the Megawatt in his hands.

"Anyone with a mirror?" Ben asked to the people.

A woman gave Ben a makeup compact that had a little mirror on the lid. Harry recognized her immediately. It was the mother who thanked him for saving her daughter. But as Ben used the mirror to show Harry's face, the wizard couldn't help but hold his breath in horror.

The boy in the mirror had green eyes just like Harry. However, Harry's eyes had green in his irises. His pupil was pitch black just other people's. That's what human's eyes looked like. On the other hand, Harry in the mirror had different eyes. His right eye in the mirror was his, but his left eye wasn't. His right eye glowed green and except the iris, his right eye turned black, leaving his green iris glow in a shape of a ring. The skin around the eye was also black with green lines carved like a scar. While looking at it, Harry touched his right eye nervously. He felt some sort of skin mixed with rubber or silk. He tried to blink, but only his left eye did. The right eyelid was gone.

The part around his right eye somehow changed into Upgrade. Part-Upgrade, to be exact.

"What the-" Harry said in shock.

"First XLR8," commented Ben, returning the mirror to its owner. "Then Upgrade? Dude, just what the heck is going on?"

"Harry, do you have any idea?" Gwen asked in confusion. "How can you suddenly stop transforming into XLR8 and go Upgrade instead?"

"That's what I want to know," responded Harry, still getting used to his eyes where only one blinked. "I was doing fine with XLR8 yesterday. I just can't do it again now."

"When was the last time you use your powers?" Grandpa Max asked with a serious frown.

"Uh..." Harry said, eyeing at Ben. "When I avoided the rubber ball, which Ben dropped."

Ben scratched his head in embarrassment while Gwen shot a look at him.

"Then after you avoided, and before you tried to stop Megawatt firing dozens of can balls," said Grandpa Max. "What could have caused to stop you from becoming XLR8?"

Harry just shook his head and just looked at his hands where the green Megawatt was sitting. However, he turned his left wrist without thinking and widened his eyes in surprise. After the incident between him and Ben in the retirement village in the desert, there was a faint brown mark that shaped like a figure of XLR8. The Tennysons thought the mark could be why his legs turned into XLR8, though they didn't know the exact reason. Ben, who seemed to have an extreme chance to trigger a magical force, also had the same one that shaped like Harry's lightning scar on his forehead.

But unknown to everyone even Harry himself, his mark had already changed into a figure of Upgrade.

"Look, we can solve this matter later," said Ben. "But right now, we have to figure out what those Sparkys would do with that giant planetary robot."

"I reckon they'll head for the big hydroelectric dam to power up," said Earl as he tapped his chin. "After that, they'll just wipe out the next town, and so on and so on... They'll think it's funny."

"What kind of sense of humor they exactly have in their minds?" Harry said in irritation, deciding to bring up his left wrist later.

"Exactly," the mayor agreed. "Yep, Megawatt's got a real twisted sense of humor."

Gwen looked around, hoping for any idea to catch the Megawatts. Then, a light hit her eyes and without thinking, she looked at where it was coming. It was a sunlight reflected from The World's Largest Fishing Bowl. Ben and Harry also found this and looked up with a grin. Gwen crossed her arms and looked at the boys.

"You thinking what I'm thinking?" Gwen asked.

"You bet," Harry replied with a wink.

"Yeah, beat those pranksters at their own game," Ben said, raising the fully charged green Omnitrix. He activated the device.

The game of real prank had begun.


Nearest Hydroelectric Dam

If anyone had been visiting this dam, they would have seen one of the weirdest things they could have, probably the weirdest in their whole life. A giant planetarium exhibit covered by rings of yellow electricity, was punching and destroying the dam wall with its planetary fist. The wall got a few round prints and cracks. The robot then readied for the final blow to punch through the dam.

Suddenly, a twirling column of fire shot from above and engulfed it. It stepped a few steps backward with a stumble and looked up. It scanned the top left and right before founding a blazing humanoid standing in the center. Heatblast was placing his big fiery hands on his waist, wearing an expression of seriousness.

"This is your only warning," said Heatblast, referring to the tornado of flames. "Knock off the funny business, or I'll fry your twinkling butts!"

But the electrical troublemakers didn't listen, and instead, they moved the giant's arms to smash the dam wall, causing a huge, wide crack that was deep enough for water to flow through. The impact shook the dam and Heatblast lost his balance. Without thinking, he jumped off over the edge and ran with his feet stepping on the wall. But the gravity didn't help as the alien was running towards the spreading water, which might be deadly to Heatblast. Heatblast didn't know what to do, so he just used all of his limbs as a brake. Surprisingly, there was an explosion and black smoke, causing Heatblast to shut his eyes, and when he opened them up, he was surprised to see himself riding on a column of fire like a skateboard. It went down but up again to avoid the pool of water on the concrete ground, disappearing and dropping the stunned Heatblast as it finished its task. The alien grinned in amusement.

"Hahahahaha...!" Heatblast chuckled but stopped as he remembered the hole on the dam. "Better seal that up fast!"

While Heatblast ran towards the dam to repair the damage, the planetarium exhibit climbed to the other side where turbines absorbing energy were placed. There was a sphere covered by a blue blanket but the giant didn't care and stood beside them but suddenly, a column of fire shot up, bringing Heatblast who already sealed the hole on the wall. Heatblast rode it easily as he knew how to skateboard.

However, the fire suddenly went off in the midair.

"Whoa!" Heatblast couldn't help but hit the nearby construction.

It seems he had to get the hang of using it. Heatblast slowly stepped back with wobbling legs and knelt down, due to the sudden dizziness. He heard footsteps and looked as a shadow loomed over him. The robot punched the alien and sent to the other side.

"Ugh..." Heatblast groaned as he felt both dizziness and pain in the head, which was too much to handle and made him passed out.

As the giant stepped closer to finish him off, a sudden green laser was shot from its behind, destroying the back part. The exhibit stumbled a bit and looked behind. There, Harry with his right eye being Upgrade was smiling playfully. Feeling taunted, the robot turned around to face him.

"Ladies and gentlemen!" Harry said with a bow. "The next show is going to be... 'The Revenge on Bully'! Enjoy!"

With that, Harry stuck his tongue at the robot. The exhibit started to approach but stopped by a familiar feminine voice.

"Hey, Mega-wimps!" Gwen shouted behind the robot, holding a water hose in her hands. "You wanna see something really funny? You guys are all wet!"

Gwen then sprayed water to the alive exhibit, annoying it. The giant raised its foot to trample her down, but Gwen was fast enough to run away, dropping the hose with a smile. Its foot missed her and hit the hose instead, making a huge crate on the ground. Suddenly, there was a net of green electricity that shocked the giant. It looked behind again to see its greatest annoyance: Green Megawatt. The giant raised its hand to attack it, but Harry whistled to the little creature, calling it to come over. It did what he told to and disappeared from the giant's sight. The giant seemed annoyed. But it turned around again as it felt heat and light from nearby. It was Heatblast who already woke up, holding up a giant ball of flame.

"What's the matter? Can't take a joke?" Heatblast said and threw the fire at the exhibit, destroying it into a pile of rubble.

Unable to control it anymore, the Megawatts appeared as they left the wreckage. They were not smiling anymore and were frowning in anger.

"You really got burned with that one," Heatblast crossed his arms and taunted them, noticing the creatures' frown. "You guys should really quit while you're behind."

The Megawatts didn't like to hear more. They charged towards the alien but he just smirked and hid behind a smoke. The Megawatts were confused when they couldn't find him behind it. They looked around but then, a shout was heard.

"Missed me, doofus!" Heatblast said as he leaned to a giant sphere covered by a blanket, blowing a few kisses to Megawatts as a taunt.

The Megawatts were so annoyed that they just charged and attacked towards the alien without hesitation. Seeing them, Heatblast just simply lift the blanket and went inside, Megawatts just following him recklessly. The blanket ruffled a bit as they went inside. Then, Grandpa Max, Gwen, and Harry with the green Megawatt in his hands, showed up from the behind.

"Ben did it!" Grandpa Max said proudly. "They took the bait!"

Max removed the blanket from the sphere, which appeared to be The World's Largest Fish Bowl with Megawatts inside. The humans stepped back and Heatblast came out from his real hiding spot, taking a deep breath and releasing a blazing twist from his mouth, which Harry took a snapshot of. Its heat and temperature hit the top of the bowl, thus melting and sealing the only escape hole. In short, the Megawatts were trapped inside the bowl. The Megawatts pressed their bodies to get out, only see Heatblast face to face.

"Nah, nah!" Heatblast taunted in satisfaction, sticking his blazing tongue at the creatures.

"Nice touch using the fish bowl," Max complimented to the kids. "With nonconductive glass sealed up tight, Sparky and his pals won't be going anywhere."

"Once again, science saves the day," Gwen said, hearing the beeping and squinting her eyes with a smile as a red light exploded in front of her.

"With a little help from Science Fiction," said Ben, reverting back to himself and leaning against the bowl where Megawatts were struggling.

"And fiction, too," said Harry, covering right eye with his hand and then removing it to reveal his eye being back to normal.

Meanwhile, the green Megawatt stared at its yellow counterparts silently with mixed emotions. The yellow ones just glared back with anger and a slight sense of betrayal.


Sparksville

The townspeople of in Sparksville were busy repairing the damages. Workers carried wooden boards and tools everywhere, helping their coworkers. People also helped them. Luckily, the village was able to return to its old shape. Every vehicles broken were all repaired and were ready to start any time.

The Tennysons and Potter met Earl for an apology before they left. Though they didn't intend to, the Megawatts were released from their trap by Ben, so they were responsible. They were now standing by a giant figure covered by a blanket, Rust Bucket parked not too far.

"You folks done right by us," said the mayor.

"Hope this adventure wasn't a big setback for Sparksville," said Grandpa Max as an apology.

"More like a giant step forward," replied Earl with a shrug. He looked at the cloaked figure. "What with our new attraction, soon we'll be raking 'em in."

Then, Earl grabbed the cloth and pulled. The others squinted their eyes as they were met with a blinding yellow spark but soon were astonished at the new attraction. It was a enormous light bulb, shining bright yellow with huge electricity inside. Apparently the mayor used the Fishing Bowl as a glass for the light bulb.

"'Biggest Light Bulb'," Earl introduced. "It'll be a humdinger." Inside, dozens of Megawatts were screaming, pouting, or slamming the glass with their bodies in attempt to get out or in pure rage. Earl then finished the sentence by looking straight at Ben, his face only few inches away with a slight threatening in his tone. "...so long as folks mind the signs."

Ben blinked. The mayor stepped beside to reveal a white sign with red letters, which were all capital.

"'IN CASE OF EMERGENCY, DO NOT BREAK GLASS'," Ben read and shrugged. After what he had caused, he was never going to ignore the sign again.

Warnings were meant for warnings, he learnt.

Harry heard a tiny chirp below and looked down to see the same green creature grabbing his pants. It was looking up, not knowing what to do. Harry just stared at it until Earl spoke up.

"You can keep that one," he said. "It's special, after all."

"You mean it?" Harry responded in surprise.

"Why not keep here?" Grandpa Max asked.

"We've already had enough," the mayor said with a shrug. "And I don't think people here are gonna be happy to find one of them on the loose. Plus, I think he's already fond of you."

The mayor seemed right. After what Megawatts had done, the village wouldn't accept the green guy even though he was different with his counterparts in many ways. Besides, Harry could know he was slightly weaker than the others. He could feel it. It wouldn't survive the villagers' anger.

Gwen was worried and looked at it. "But what about food or anything? We don't know how to keep an living electrical battery with limbs. Not to mention, how to handle what he could do."

The green one flinched and clung onto Harry's pants in fear.

"It eats electricity," Earl said simply. "Megawatts are hyperactive and have to gobble up some that is enough to move a soda machine. But your guy seems a little more timid one, so I assume a little less to feed him."

Harry felt a tug on his pants and looked down again, finding Megawatt gesturing to say something. He puts his hands on his knees to see what it wants. First Megawatt motioned itself, rubbed its belly, charged up its electricity, drew a huge circle with his arms, and shook its head while making 'X' with its arms. The Tennysons were confused, but Harry thought carefully what the little creature was saying.

"You, stomach, powering up, many, no..." Harry muttered.

Ben seemed to figure it out. "Your stomach powers up not much?"

The Megawatt shook its head.

"Your stomach doesn't power up that much?" Gwen guessed.

The Megawatt motioned to keep going.

They were close to the answer. However, they didn't know how close. The kids started to think again what the real meaning would be until Harry said, "You don't need to power up that much?"

The Megawatt squeaked and chirped as a yes.

"So you don't need to be feed as much as the mayor said, I assume?" Grandpa Max added, which received a nod.

"It seems it's decided," Earl said and walked off, leaving the family with the creature.

Harry scooped up the Megawatt and petted on its head. "You want to come with us, little guy?"

The green one looked at its counterparts and then at Harry, before nodding with a smile.

"It's settled," Grandpa Max said with a grin, which suddenly turned into a frown. "But you must promise you won't pull others' clothes from behind..."

The Megawatt squeaked and nodded his head fast enough to tell that it understood.

"Don't mess up my computer," said Gwen. "It's sensitive."

It chirped and also nodded.

"And do not zap us," said Ben, motioning his cousin. "But only her."

"Hey!" Gwen yelled and slapped his back.

"Ow!"

"Just don't hurt anybody, okay?" Harry shook his head and said to the creature which nodded.

Grandpa Max then brought the kids to the van. Harry placed the Megawatt on his shoulder. Gwen followed him while Ben gave another glance at the light bulb that still shined brightly. Seeing the Megawatts that were so different, Ben felt weird.

The Omnitrix wielder sighed. "I think I pranked out for a while."

"There is a time and a place for a practical joke," said Grandpa Max firmly.

Harry tensed a little bit. Even the Megawatt, too. A little prank may become a disaster. The kid learnt this very well. The Megawatts, the yellow ones, were the pranksters whose pranks were not good to the others. Though they saw them funny, it didn't work when others didn't like them. Pranks had to be just pranks, no more. The Megawatt lowered his head guiltily and Harry sensed this. He used his finger to pat the creature.

Ben also learnt this very well. He was pulling too much bad pranks these days. He decided not to do anymore, especially not now. Maybe he would do again, but not as much as he used to. He looked at his grandfather tiredly and opened the van door. Unknown to him, a bucket full of water placed on top of the door fell straight on his head, bucket covering face. Drenched with water, Ben lift the bucket slightly. Harry and Megawatt blinked. As they figured out it was Grandpa Max's work, they covered their mouth and let out a small choke of laugh.

"But funny is funny," Grandpa Max laughed. "Especially when it's not on you!"

Ben groaned but didn't say anything because he was too tired to and deserved get one.

The others laughed at the prank that wasn't too much to hurt someone. Harry laughed when he saw Ben with a bucket on his head. The green Megawatt also giggled. Sometimes prank was in need for one who deserved. They shouldn't do usually, but only when the time came. A time when the ones deserved pranks arrived.


*REPLIES & DECISIONS & ANNOUNCEMENT(Super Long)*

(Chapter 1)

FandomTrash5165: Well, I'm not thinking of pairings for now. It makes my brain fry. But I can tell you that I prefer F/M pairings to M/M or F/F pairings. And since I saw HarryXBen and BenXKevin in the reviews, I must say, I only ship them as friendships, no more no less. As for the story, at first I decided to go until the last, but...it seems my ideas of the story started to diminish, so I'm trying my best to create ideas that would work in the next chapter, or in the closest events. I've got the opinions about the children's powers and thank you.

MarioYoshiZW: And someone reviewed me in the first chapter! Welcome!

(Chapter 3)

Uzushiogakure: Hmm... Quite interesting... Thanks for the ideas.

(Chapter 4)

Uzushiogakure: You're right. The lake is really cold, so the mermaids in the chapter were the less attractive ones in human's view.

(Chapter 5)

Uzushiogakure: I'm glad you like that part. I haven't decided what the relation between Lily and Charmcaster should be; sisters, cousins, or niece. I can't choose...

(Chapter 6)

Uzushiogakure: It seems some of the others want him half-alien... But if you want him fully transformed more than ever, we'll see...

(Chapter 7)

corbinskydragon1: Wow, you've made a vow! It sure is fun! Thanks, I was pretty exhausted after I thought really hard to make a nickname that would suit Harry. Okay...so your idea of their powers are: Ben for both options, Gwen for the second, and Harry for the second. Thanks! I guess there are some people who want to see Harry using the combination of his powers, huh? Your ideas seem so amazing! Just like you, XLR8 and Heatblast are my best favorite Original Ben 10 aliens! So you don't have to say sorry. And thanks! Your compliments make me joyful!

DarkPugLord23: Glad to see another reviewer who likes this story! And, I already replied by PM, so... you don't need anymore answers...do you? Um, you can review me if you do.

DracoKnight446: Pairings? Not really. I haven't thought of that much.

Greer123: That's because Harry is learning himself just like Ben as the chapter continues. Oh, and about Gwen...of course she wouldn't need any of those, perhaps. I think maybe Gwen would be able to practice quite well if her two pals can also use magic.

He-who-runs-into-walls: Yeah, I want to see Charmcaster, too, if my skills and ideas don't betray me... You seem to like Ditto and Benwolf(Blitzwolfer), right? Well, they are popular for their own charms and abilities and I like them, too.

jetman24: Hmm... Point there. Thanks for the opinion!

joshua. obryan. 549: Ben, Gwen, and Harry all having option number two, I got that. Wow, those were the same thoughts in your mind? If that's so, I must be a mind-reader...(Joking!) And yes, if Azmuth were there, I'm sure he'll examine Harry from his head to his toe.

mad thought: Another one who've made a vow! Harry being half-alien; opinion checked. Harry being able to become other aliens in the Omnitrix; also checked. And the US government? Uh... I'm not the one who knows well about the government workouts...but I really hope they will visit. In short, I want to say yes, but I'm afraid my writing skills and knowledge aren't that good enough...

MAJORMATT1234: I understand. It could be hard to imagine him with only legs being XLR8. I wonder if someone would have a chance to draw him for me... (lol) Well, your ideas seem terrific. I wonder what it will happen when I'm finally able to write that part.

Mewaponny: Harry with partial transformation and Ben using magic by luck, got it. As for Gwen, I don't know. She'll do great even by her own.

ShapeShifter8745: Alright, make Harry use not only XLR8's powers but also Ripjaws', Stinkfly's, Four Arms', and Wildmutt's. I got it.

TerrorofDeathHaseo666: Hmm... That sounds like a great idea, but I don't think he'll earn that kind of powers yet. I hope he will...and I hope I will be able to write the story more.

Uzushiogakure: You're right, Gwen can be great force in the team. Ben sure can relax a bit when he wait for the recharge. As for Harry, I made the conclusions below, so I hope it satisfies you...

(End of the replies)

By looking at the reviews carefully, as I thought, some of the reviews contained contrasts to another, or more. It was hard to choose which opinion, but I thought really carefully and read all of your reviews at least 5 to 10 times to make the best conclusion. I'm sorry if any of you didn't satisfy on the conclusions... I just hope you'll like and agree with them.

*Remember, like I said in the chapter before, I may accept only part of your ideas. I told you, so no excuses or flames, got it?*

Okay, the final conclusions for Harry, Ben, and Gwen's abilities:

Ben: Alien transformer who has magic by luck in this series, but later he'll use his magic by his own by training with Gwen and Harry. He can use magic while being an alien, too, but depending on his luck. Due to the magic he got, I'm not sure but he'll have some magical talent or something, so he might end up liking to 'study' magic...

Gwen: Sorceress who can use both American and British magic. She'll be developed as she studies with Harry and possibly Ben. She'll make combo spells and lots of potion with Harry. There's more, but I'm not going to tell since they may be spoilers.

Harry: British wizard with half transformation of aliens, depending on the silhouette on his wrist. He can be one of those ten whenever he wants but they can't be combined for now, so he can use only one power at a time. Later, he can either use only one power or combine the forms he choose for greater strength(For example, as one of the reviewers said, XLR8 legs plus Heatblast's fire power). Also, he can use magic when he's in alien mode. In short, Harry will be a wizard that can use British and American magic with alien powers.

...Is he a god or something?

Also, for whom wondering why Harry will have part-alien transformation... I guess it's because more votes were to that option and I made more reasons;

1: Wizards' Animagus forms are basically Earth animals or magical creatures.

2: Harry's form is an alien which not a single wizard could think of or even know of because they are from outer space, far from wizards' knowledge.

3: Most of the Animagus forms the wizards can be are non-sapient(dogs, phoenixes, or mice...), while Harry and Ben's alien forms are sapient ones(Kineceleran(XLR8), or Pyronite(Heatblast)...).

4: In case you don't know the difference, have you ever seen a wizard turning into a magical people like giants or goblins...or maybe house-elves? You see, the wizards can't turn into other people 'fully' and the alien forms are...people from space, not a creature(if you're going to ask 'how about Wildmutt?', well... DON'T), so I think Harry won't be able to transform into alien...fully.

5: Since Animagus forms are animal-based and cannot be other people, just like changing oneself into goblin or people in other country is impossible(unless they use Polyjuice Potion, but that also can't transform the drinker into goblin or elves, right?), and because Harry gained the powers of the Omnitrix by accident, I decided to make Harry become only half-alien. If Harry can be full alien, why no one became Centaurs or else by their own when they can?

If you want more reasons...well, I don't mind telling you but I don't want any flames or insults in return.

Whew... I'm tired now... Well, you've read them all; I hope you aren't too surprised...

{Chapter 8 was originally Author's Note since I had SAT that time. This chapter was replaced, so I copied the reviews that come from the A/N and put them here. If any of you want, I will delete that one you wish to, even though I really want to have them as my memories.}

Anima Reader: Study hard but don't over do it. Don't forget to take brakes otherwise you won't remember what you studied and good luck!

-Thanks for the advise!

Caliban Super Saiyan 0: No problem on the exam man. If you feel that you wanna do this, then I say go for it. I hope you get a good grade! See ya in December!

-Thanks for understanding me and encouraging me.

Greer123: I hope that your SAT go well.

-Thank you.

Guest: Your right, I wouldn't want to be depressed forever either. But I will keep this story page on, it's a brilliant crossover and I don't want to get rid of it, good luck in your SATs and stay determined.

-Wow, you really touched my heart, you know that? Thanks.

tomahawkESP: GOOD LUCK DUDE! Use the gum technique!

-I don't know what that is, but thank you.

World62590: I wish you luck on SAT, and I hope you pass.

-Thank you so much.
