What is this? A chapter!?
-------

The team had to walk all the way to Hargeon Town, since the train left them, and they called the Rune Knights to arrest Kenta. They had been talking about the problems with Dark Howl. Apparently they had only been heard of a few days before Ben arrived. No one had ever seen them before that. Also there was the question on how Ben in his Terraspin form and Wendy created a Unison Raid. Ben said that it was probably due to Terraspin being good at handling mana. That led to the long discussion on how mana and the Ethernano that creates magic in Earthland may have some correlation. And as usual Natsu and Gray kept fighting each other. Only Erza was able to scare them into being quiet... by bashing their heads together.

"Isn't that a tiny bit extreme?" asked Ben. The team arrived at Hargeon town. The city seemed as lively as ever, and the sea could be seen in the distance. It seemed like a beautiful and peaceful town, and from what Lucy had said, this is were she had met Natsu and joined Fairy Tail.

"Natsu saved me from a guy pretending to be the Salamander. But Natsu who is the real one beat him," said Lucy as she remembered the day she was asked to join Fairy Tail.

"The job was given by the major of the town, so we should go see them first before starting the mission," said Ben.

"Then we shall go to the town hall. It is a few streets from here," said Erza. The group walked down the busy streets.

Ben looked around out and saw many differences between his world and this one. People relied less on technology, and lived simple lives. Some of them were able to do magic and joined guilds for making money, and like Fairy Tail had shown Ben, some sort of family.

Ben heard people whispering about them. Apparently Natsu made a huge mess last time he was here. They also spoke of the other members since Fairy Tail had a reputation for making a mess of things. Ben wasn't much different, usually destroying a few streets when he turned into an alien. When he was a kid he didn't have to worry about the mess since no one knew that all those aliens were him. He always said "It's Hero Time!" before he turned into an alien and destroyed everything. Now he was held responsible for all the destruction. It's not like it was his fault aliens kept trying to destroy the Earth.

"We are here," said Erza. The group entered the town hall. The place wasn't too fancy. They showed the person at the front desk the poster with the job in it and she told them to go into the room at the left.

The major had a serious expression that didn't go with the weird eyebrows and long beard.

"You must be the mages from Fairy Tail!" said the major, "I have been waiting for some time."

"We are here to deal with your monster problem,"said Erza.

"That is good. I just hope that this time you won't destroy my town," he said looking at Natsu.

"Ehh... of course sir. The monsters are outside the town so you won't have worry about us making a mess here," said Erza.

"That is good," said the major, a look of relief in his face.

"Do you have any idea where this monsters came from?" asked Carla, who was being held in Wendy's arms.

"That I don't know. Just a few days ago they appeared near the town. Some poor adventure was attacked by them. He ran all the way here and told everyone," said the major, "He described them to us, but we do not have any idea of what they are."

"We see. So which way are they?" asked Erza.

"They hid right beyond the village, away from the ocean and in the forest. People claimed they have been attacked on their way here. If someone doesn't stop them soon, people would stop coming to this town," said the mayor.

"Alright mayor. We will take care of your problem," said Ben.

"Thank you all. I assure you will be paid for your services," said the major and the group left the mayor's place. They walked directly out the town and into the forest to start the search.

The group made sure to keep Natsu and Gray on opposite ends so they do not begin fighting again. They kept investigating all around, with Erza making sure no one ran off on their own.

Ben was looking around more attentively. If there really was Techadons around, he had to figure out where they came from. Maybe Brainstorm could analyze the machines and try to find any clues as to why he and the Techadons are on Earthland.

"What's wrong Ben?" asked Erza. Ben realized he had almost been left behind.

"Sorry about that," said Ben as he walked back. The group then walked around to what must have felt like an hour. Natsu tried even looking under a boulder, then Gray made a joke about it, they began to fight, and once again Erza ended their quarrel rather quickly.

"Ben, do you have any alien that could help find them?" asked Lucy.

"I don't think I have one that could help," said Ben as he thought of his aliens, "Maybe I should make the search easier."

Ben scrolled through the aliens, until he reached the one he wanted. He pushed down the faceplate and soon was covered in bright green light. He was then replaced by a small white alien.

"Echo Echo!" said Ben in a robotic voice. The small alien then glowed green as he began multiplying until there were ten of him.

"Isn't that the one that you used to fight Natsu?" asked Lucy.

"It is," said one Echo Echo.

"We can cover more ground now," said the Echo Echo next to him.

"Seems alright, umm... which Ben is our Ben?" asked Natsu looking at the ten different Echo Echos in front of him.

"We are all Ben," said the Echo Echos. They each then headed their separate ways. The group of mages was then left by themselves.

"Isn't it weird that he talks to himself in that form?" said Wendy to Carla.

"It is. But when you live in Fairy Tail, you get used to weird stuff," said Carla. The group of mages then walked around the forest. The vegetation was thick, so they couldn't see too far away. And they could barely see the sky above due to all the leaves in the way.

"Did you guys hear that?" ask Gray.

"Yes, I heard it as well," said Erza. The noise was of something heavy walking around. They couldn't see in which direction the noise was coming from.

"Stay alert, I think whatever we are looking for is here," said Erza as she used her magic to make a sword to appear in her hand. Natsu's fists were engulfed in flames as he looked around, trying to catch any trace of a scent.

"Watch out!" yelled Lucy as she pushed Natsu out of the way as a blast of energy was shot at him. The blast crashed behind the group. The trees were knocked over. The sounds of heavy footsteps was heard walking on the branches.

Out what looked like a huge person wearing a heavy set of metal armor that covered up their whole body, hiding their face.

"I think we found who we are looking for," said Grey.

"He doesn't look so tough!" yelled Natsu as he charged ahead and yelled, "Iron Fist The Fire Dragon!"

His fist was engulfed in fire as he punched the armored man, who blocked by crossing his arms. The armored man was pushed back.

"Alright!" said Lucy as she took out her keys, "Gate Of The Archer! Sagittarius!"

Instantly what looked like a man in a horse costume holding a bow appeared. This was Sagittarius.

"Greetings Lady Lucy! Moshi Moshi!" said Sagittaarius as he took aim and let go a barrage of arrows. They stuck the armored man, sparks flew as the arrows pierced the armor.

"Ice Make: Freeze Lancer!" yelled Gray as he used his magic to shoot a lance made of ice a the armor, piercing it chest.

"I think you guys went a bit overboard," said Carla seeing the armor that was scorched, and pierced by arrows.

"Wait, I'm I seeings things, or is it healing?" said Happy looking at the armor.

The armor, which was sparking with electricity took out the arrows imbedded in it's shell. Then the armor started to close as it 'healed'.

"It's back to normal!" said Natsu.

The armor then aimed it's hands at them, and they changed into blasters. They charged with red energy and began shooting.

"Everyone dodge!" yelled Wendy as everyone attempted to avoid the lasers.

"Ice- Make: Shield!" yelled Gray as he made a shield of ice protecting his teammates. The lasers kept coming, slowly wearing down the shield as everyone stayed behind it.

"What is that thing!?" asked Gray.

"I don't know. It doesn't seem that strong, but this magic blasts seem to cause a lot of damage," said Erza. Suddenly the felt the ground tremble a little.

"What is that trembling?" said Gray.

From the bushes blasted what looked like an orange ball. It came at high speeds and crashed into the armor. The armor was sent flying while the ball stopped and rolled towards were the mages were.

It stopped and rolled into a more human pose. It had a white inner body with black lines, green eyes, and the Omnitrix symbol on the forehead.

Cannonbolt
Race: Arburian Pelarota
Home Planet: Arburia
Arburian Pelarota's have the ability to curl up into a ball. In this form they are able to roll at high speeds. While in this form, their outer shell that they have on the back is what protects their insides. The shell is very resistant, protecting them from corrosive materials, energy blasts. Their inside part, the white part, is soft and can absorb shock, allowing it to fall great distances without harm.
———

"Ben! Is that you?" asked Happy.

"It is me. This is my alien Cannonbolt. I came here as soon as I heard the battle," said Ben. He turned around to see what he hit. As he suspected, it was a Techadon from his universe. But how had it gotten here?

From behind them they heard more steps. The team turned to see nine more Techadons.

"Seems like we got company," said Cannonbolt.

"Alright! Let's do this!" yelled Natsu. He stepped up as fire started to form in his mouth.

"Fire Dragon's Roar!" he yelled as a blast of fire shot from his mouth. The Techadon's tried blocking, but they were pushed back.

"Requip: Black Wing Armor!" said Erza. She glowed and then was equipped in a suit of black armor with wings. She flew towards a Techadon at and began slashing faster than the Techadon could self repair.

"Sky Dragon's Roar!" yelled Wendy as she blast a powerful gust of wind from her mouth, launching two Teachadon's into the air. Cannonbolt rolled and jumped towards one, hitting it in midair and bouncing from one to hit the other. Cannonbolt landed on the ground and began rolling towards the next.

Before the two Techadon's could get up, Gray ran and put his hand into the open crack. The Techadon's insides were covered in the expanding ice, causing them to explode one after another as Grey kept attacking.

Ten minutes later, the last of the Techadon's were destroyed. The machines had no change against the mages from Fairy Tail and Ben. Ben remembered that this would had been tougher when he first battled them, but due to his new friends, the battle had been won quickly, and the only destruction was a few trees... and whatever hole Natsu made. Gray froze the circuits to make sure they machines didn't repair like the one in the beginning did before.

"What are this things?" said Erza as she looked upon the frozen wiring on the Techadons.

"They are called Techadons," said Ben.

"You've seen this before?" asked Lucy.

"Yes. Back in my universe there were a bunch of guys that built and sold them to anyone who could pay," said Ben, "I looked at the poster in the guild and new that if anyone else tried to take them down they could get hurt. And I also chose it because I wanted to know why they are here."

"You said they are from your world?" said Carla, "Strange. They seem to have made the trip as well. Think anything else made it back through to this world?"

"I don't know. Perhaps there is more things. Maybe some friends made it through as well," said Ben as he tried to think what happened to send them here.

"By friends, do you mean us?" asked someone from behind the team. They turned around to see to two people behind them. One was a guy with a black shirt, jeans, black hair, and next to him a girl with a blue sweater, a white shirt, a black skirt with stockings, long orange hair and green eyes. They were Kevin Levin, Ben's friend, and Gwen Tennyson, his cousin.

"Sup Tennyson. Long time no see," said Kevin.
