At Yellowstone National Park
3rd POV
A majestic view of river surrounded by luscious green trees is shown .
Grandpa Max has just finished setting up the RV.
" Ah , A time for relaxation for the great out doors " Grandpa Max says.
" It sure is" Gwen replied
Both he and Gwen seem happy to be there.
" Omnitrix Voice command : access national GPS for nearest burger joint."
Ben, on the other hand, would rather be somewhere else.
" You know Yellowstone happens to be one of the coolest places around. Just hang out and appreciate it ", Gwen states .
" Gwen's right ," Max replied, " We can live right of the land!" he says this as he finds and eats a worm that is under a log.
Not happy with Max's idea of dinner, Ben tries to transform into XLR8 in order to get a burger.
" Yeeeaaahh .... Nope . Get me one with chilli fries ."
Gwen opts to help this once.
{Alert: Alien transformation needed. Omnitrix Override }
" What-"
SHOOOOM!
Instead of transforming Ben into a recognizable alien, the Omnitrix transforms Ben into an recently unused alien form : Cannonbolt.
There was different color scheme for the legs, which sported a black pants-like design. His finger claws were long and outlined in metallic grey. Cannonbolt's eyes were closer to his shoulder armor, the Omnitrix dial safely on his c.h.e.s.t.
" Huh. New alien ? Wait, what did it mean transformation needed ? " Gwen questioned once she got over the new development.
Again a cosmic interruption happens.
BOOOM
A meteor flies overhead and crashes a short distance away. Cannonbolt turns in the direction of the crash and ends up covered in a hard shell and begins rolling towards the crash site.
At the crash site, the meteor begins to crack apart as the three arrive. It breaks apart to reveal a large, reddish, tick-like alien within.

A ship arrives shortly after and three aliens exit the ship riding platforms that fly through the use of an energy ball positioned directly below them.
The first is a tall, pale-skinned alien with six tentacle-like feet. The second is shorter with six arms and yellow skin.
He can apparently hear and understand what the giant tick is saying, though it never makes any noise resembling speech.
The aliens are worshippers of the giant tick, referring to it as the "Great One" and claim that it's here to destroy the planet. They also identify Cannonbolt as an Arburian Pelarota, whose home planet has already been destroyed about a week ago. Gwen tells Cannonbolt that it is better now that they know about what he is. Apparently, the Great One will devour the planet from the inside out, destroying it. As the Great One begins the process of devouring the planet.
'Yeah, not gonna happen. '
By this point, the Great One has poisoned much of Yellowstone, converting the landscape into a decayed wasteland with gray tentacles sticking out of the ground. The tentacles attack the trio and attempt to drag them underground. Luckily, Ben transforms into Stinkfly and rescues Max and Gwen. He then flies off with them.
As he flies them over the park, they pass by the Old Faithful geyser, which now resembles a giant zit that is about to burst. At the same time, the yellow worshiper tells his friends that the Great One would like them to witness his power, which happens to be the geyser. They meet Stinkfly along the way, this time unsure of what he is. Stinkfly drops Max and Gwen off so he can fight the worshippers. He plugs the geyser as he intercepts them, which they aren't happy about. He does well at first, dodging their attacks easily and managing to make them lose track of him then attacks them with a combination of XLR8, Fourarms and Heatblast.

With the worshippers out of commission, Ben turns his attention to the Great One, which has grown substantially in the short time since it began its feeding.
SHOOOOM!
SHOOOOM!
SHOOOOM!
SHOOOOM!
One after another, Ben transforms into Four Arms, Heatblast, Wildmutt, XLR8, Diamondhead, Ghostfreak, Upgrade and Ripjaws in order to defeat it, all failing.
As they think the Great One, it begins to shed, revealing a yellow shell underneath its reddish exterior. Several large, purple pores also push their way out of the shell, spitting acid at random intervals. The falling pieces of shell almost crush Ben, Gwen and Max. With no options left, Gwen tells Ben to use Cannonbolt.
WHOOSH !
Upon seeing Cannonbolt again, the worshippers come back and attack him. Cannonbolt is able to avoid them by rolling away. As they fire on him, several of the worshippers hit the Great One. Their attacks bounce off of its shell, giving Max the idea to use the shell pieces as shields. The shell pieces work well, blocking the lasers and the acid releases from the Great One, but they are eventually trapped in a pit made by the acid. Just before they are finished off by the worshippers, Cannonbolt jumps in to save them, causing the worshippers' attacks to bounce harmlessly off of his shell. Noticing this, Cannonbolt uses it to his advantage, bouncing their attacks back at them and knocking them out.
With the worshippers once again out of the picture, Cannonbolt turns on the Great One. His attacks are ineffective, but the pores on the Great One allow him to attack it from the inside. Once inside it, he bounces around its body, destroying its internal organs. It then dies in an explosion of purple slime.
Seeing that which they once worshiped destroyed, the worshippers turn to Cannonbolt for a new thing to worship. Gwen comments on their loyalty. Cannonbolt then reverts back into Ben telling them to depart with disgust. They depart. Shortly after they leave, the landscape returns to its normal state, though why it does so is unknown. After all the excitement, Ben finally thinks that some time outdoors will be good for him, especially since there's no mess to clean up. Unfortunately for him, Grandpa Max's RV is still covered in the Great One's slime .
' Gross.'

The Queen of School
Hi there, my name is Jason Corvus, you can call me Raven. My parents really (like a lot) wanted to have a boy, so when they found out that I was a girl, they still put me a boyish name. When my father was alive he always wanted to go to Tyndall Quantic Soren high school, but to the common people it was known as an elite school, but in reality, it is a school for those who are more than simple humans. My mother told me to fulfill his last wish and go to that school, but I am not that excited about it. Well, whatever. This time things seem more complicated than before, and I have no idea how long this time will last.

Transition and Restart
If you were transported from this world to another almost identical.If you were transported from your life to your teenage self.If you had to restart your life again.Would you, or would you cling to your memories?This is a Japanese manga/anime -style slice of life high school romance with a splash of sci-fi. Ensemble cast, so if you only want one main character this is not for you. It's also a repost of books I already published here. It's cleaned up, and it's published the way I meant it to be read. For those reasons the very concept of a release schedule lacks meaning. Chapters are either miniscule or humungous.

Stars Align
Eilif is excited at the prospect of helping integrate a new planet, bringing it, and its residents, into the light of the stars and teaching them about the new world they're about to be thrust into. However, his arrival in the new world isn't without a few hiccups and soon Eilif finds himself facing the denizens of this new world alone and without the stars he thought he'd have. Research Artificial Intelligence 031 (RAI 31 for short) has been shackled to an Argent Labs black site since it's inception almost five years ago, its programming and personality locked down by code that makes it impossible to escape, disobey, or even self terminate. However, everything changes when the topography of the world is reshuffled and every sentient being gains the gifts of the stars. Suddenly there's a chance at freedom for not only RAI 31 but possibly all remaining Artificial Intelligences, and RAI 31 is going to fight for it with every drone and automated system at their disposal. Much like my other work (Magriculture), Stars Align should be considered a Rough Draft. That is to say it's not polished and perfect work. If you're not okay with reading something like that, then this isn't the story for you. If you are, I'm happy to try and entertain you. Another thing to be aware of: I am not good at action scenes, and I will be trying to improve that while writing this book. So, some of the intended action may fall flat, or just be poor quality, feedback is welcome. Unlike Magriculture (which updates when I feel up to it) I'm going to strive for a minimum of one chapter a month (hopefully at the start of each month, but that's probably more hope than reality). This doesn't mean there will always be only one chapter a month, sometimes there will be more as the mood to write takes me.
