1 And There Were 10.

Inside a van, a 10-year-old boy is watching the TV with intrigued eyes.

The kid was watching the fight between the Justice League and Doomsday.

"I'm Lois Lane from the Daily Planet, we're currently hiding behind some debris while watching the Justice League fighting some sort of grey monster that we dubbed Doomsday. The monster seems to be extremely powerful and is causing serious damage to the JL members." Lois.

The gigantic mutated Kryptonian smacked most of the JL members as if they were nothing, even members like Shazam and Superman were receiving quite the beating from the grey monster.

'Please, let this be a good universe, not a dark universe of shit!' The boy prayed while crossing his fingers.

"WAIT! It seems that Batman is doing something to Doomsday!" Lois.

In the battle, Batman injects Doomsday with a serum of what appeared to be liquid Kryptonite, weakening Doomsday weak enough that Superman punches him out of the planet.

"YES! No dark universe!" The boy cheered.

If you hadn't catch up by now, then allow me to explain.

That kid is me, Ben. And if you are wondering how I'm currently celebrating this victory of the Justice League, allow me to go back a in time a little bit.

My past life name was Benjamin Myers, I had a very pleasant life, until I died thanks to truck-kun, that bastard. I met the so-called "GOD" of the world, universes, etc.…he gave me the chance to reincarnate and I wanted to choose the Marvel Universe.

However, the GOD thought it would be funny to send me to the DC universe. It was like Fuck it, what was the point of giving me wishes if you would do whatever you want?!

Sigh… not that I could do anything. I was reborn as an orphan, got kicked out of the orphanage at the age of 6 and since then I've lived stealing food. Fortunately, some idiot decided to discard its van with a dead body inside of it in the middle of the forest that I was living at the moment (Don't ask why).

I took the van, noticed that it still had gas and took it out of the woods. Ever since, I've survived out of the leftovers caused by the damages some heroes had with villains. No kidding, form food to clothes, the quantity of stuff feels surreal.

I'm ten right now and are few necessities that I have. I've got cable, gas, water and a comfy bed to spend the night. What else could I ask for?

Anyway, after seeing the JL taking down Doomsday and preventing a dark timeline. Honestly, I have almost no knowledge about DC universes, all I know is that the Batman Who Laughs is the GOAT in everything evil related, and that I should get as far away from that outcome as I could.

I also knew a few members of the JL and some sidekicks, but that doesn't matter, because I have no powers whatsoever.

'Curse you Wexof! You reincarnated me and didn't give me any powers!' Ben.

As if he was smiting me, a meteorite appeared in the sky going towards me. I turned on the van and drove as far away from there as I could.

*CRASH*

The object crashed unto the land and unleashed a shockwave. Ben crashed his van but was protected thanks to the airbags.

"There goes my life insurance." Ben sarcastically commented.

He tried to turn his car on, but it didn't work so, as any other normal person would do, he went to investigate the crash site.

Ben found a big crater with a capsule in the middle of it, the capsule opened and revealed a device that looked like a black watch and had a green symbol in the middle of it. (Basically OG Omnitrix)

Ben looked at his wrist, then at the watch, and then at the sky and thought.

'Did he do this due to my name being ben? Whatever, I still won't take back all the cursing I gave you these last years.' Ben.

"Fuck you kid!" Wexof (From his realm)

Ben got near the watch and extended his left hand. The watch lunged to his wrist tightly, making it seemingly impossible to remove.

"Wow…this thing is much lighter than I thought. Now, time to get out of here before someone comes here to snoop." Ben.

Ben ran towards the van and dialed his watched into the silhouette of a what could only be described as a chubby stickman.

"Time to give my van an UPGRADE." Ben.

Ben pressed the watch and his body began to transform. His arms became black and had some circuit-like marks until his body "melted" and then reformed itself. He has the black skin and circuit marks in its back and face, his front body was now white and his face was only a green circle.

"Wow…feels weird. Ok, time to see how good is a Galvanic Mecha-morph mechanical manipulation." Ben spoke.

Ben touched the van and slowly but surely enter it, he remodeled the whole van and managed to make it move, he drove away from the crash site before anyone could arrive.

"This is amazing! Hope I can have lots of fun with this!" Ben.

(A few hours after Ben took the watch)

"Was it here?" Asked a man in a blue costume with an S on his chest.

"According to Cyborg's readings, it is around here." Answered a woman with a tiara and a lasso on her waist.

"Why isn't Flash here, the mission would be much faster with him in here." Complained a man wearing a green suit and ring.

"It would be wise to not overwork him, after all, he had to fight Doomsday for almost half an hour before we arrived." Answered a green-skinned man with red eyes wearing a blue cape.

"Hey guys! I think I found it!" Yelled a man wearing a red costume and white cape with a lighting symbol on his chest.

The group of dressed individuals went towards the crater and found an empty capsule.

"Wow…what is it?" Shazam asked.

"Don't touch it Shazam, we have no idea what could have come out from there." Superman.

"What could've possibly come out of this small capsule? A virus? An otherworldly invader?" Wonder Woman.

"Lantern, scan this with your ring and tell us what it says." Superman.

"On it." Green Lantern (Hall Jordan).

Green Lanter analyzed the capsule with his ring but got a negative response.

"Hmm…weird, my ring doesn't have anything related to this material in its database." GL.

"Guess we'll have to take it to Star Labs first to make a proper analysis." Superman.

"What about the contents of the capsule?" WW.

"Let's just hope that whatever it is, it won't cause trouble to anyone." Superman.

(With Ben)

"WOOOOOHOOOO!!!" Ben.

Ben is increasing the speed of his newly remodeled van while on the highway. However, he's also recklessly drifting through it as well.

"This is so much fun! In my past life, the most fun I've ever had was to eat a whole pot of spaghetti. This is AMAZING!!!" Ben enjoyed.

Unfortunately for his fun, the Omnitrix began to flash red and make a beeping sound.

*BEEP* *BEEP* *BEEP*

"Aw! Come on! I was having such a blast!" Ben complained and got out of the van and appeared in his driver seat."

*BEEP* BEEP* BOOP*

A red flash covers the van and Ben is back in his human form. Unfortunately for him, he was speeding up too much and couldn't control his van as well as before.

Eventually, he ends up crashing into a garbage deposit. Ben breaks the glass and lands in a pile of garbage.

"Well, t-that's what I get for playing a little too much." Ben spoke as he regained his balance.

He saw his van completely wrecked and couldn't help but blame himself for that.

"In your face asshat!" Wexof (In his realm).

"Well, I'll have to wait for this timeout to finish so, I guess I'll get comfortable in here for a while." Ben spoke as he sat on what looked like a rock...it was not a rock.

After changing his clothes from the wreckage of his former van and having the Omnitrix get charged up he transformed into Upgrade, and sometimes Grey Matter, and absorbed as much mechanical stuff in the dumpsters as he could to remodel the van.

The next day.

The van, now looking like a camper, was finally done. It had a kitchen, fully operated bathroom, AC, Heating, and lots of weapons made out of trash, like stink bombs, spikes, and old grease.

"Perfect, I think I have enough gas to arrive at the next city which is...Bludheaven?" Ben got inside the camper and drove out of the deposit.

After hours of driving and playing with the watch, Ben arrived in New Jersey.

"*SIGH* If only I had put more effort into learning about the DC universe, I only know the usual stuff. Batman kills the Joker = bad ending, Superman's wife dies = bad ending, I wonder if there's supposed to be a hero here somewhere…" Ben spoke as his camper finally ran out of gas and stopped.

"To be honest, it was about darn time." Ben gets out of his camper and pays the parking meter.

"That should cover for the next 6 hours. Now, let's go to the library and hope someone steals a bank soon." Ben.

Just as if he was wishing for it, The Penguin was driving through the city being chased by the police and had bags full of money.

"Well, just like Plastic-man once said; 'Save the money!'" Ben ran towards an alley and dialed the Omnitrix into a certain speedy silhouette.

"WA, WA, WA, WAAA! With this batch, we'll have enough money to reign hell over Gotham! And that pesky bat crusader will finally kneel over my reign!" The Penguin.

"Oswald Cobblepot! In the name of Bludheaven PD, we order you to stop this instant!" Police.

"WA! Never, eat this, you copper!!" Penguin.

The penguin's umbrella unfolds and from its tip comes out a small missile that connects with the police car, exploding it. unfortunately for him, he didn't notice that the car was empty.

"WA, WA, WA!!! Did you see that?! No one messes with The Penguin!" Penguin.

"You sure about that?" Asked a certain blue-skinned alien with rollers in its feet.

"WA?! Who the hell are you?!" Penguin.

The Penguin begins to shoot bullets from the tip of his umbrella but the alien evades them.

"The name's non ya business, I'm blue, I'm fast and FYI: I'm gonna take some of your cash." XLR8.

"WA! Die you vermin!" Penguin.

XLR8 evaded all the bullets that were shoot at him with ease, he then used his claw-like hands and deflated the tires of Penguin's car, causing it to crash.

XLR8 took the goons and Penguin out of commission and wanted to take some cash but the police were arriving.

'Damn! I couldn't take even 50! Oh well, next time it is.' XLR8.

XLR8 left the scene and the police officers took Penguin and his goons to the station.

"Who was that?" Police 1.

"Dunno, maybe some other super-powered guy." Police 2.

Ben de transformed in an alley near the library of Bludheaven and waited for it to close, after it closed, he transformed into Grey Matter to enter the building unnoticeable and gather as much knowledge as possible.

"This is going to be harder than I thought." Spoke Grey Matter as he was having a difficult time taking 1 book.

While Ben was "Studying" another person was observing the whole show he did through a giant monitor.

"Batman to Justice League, I've found a being of possible extraterrestrial origin. I'm inclined to believe that he's got something to do with the capsule that was found a few days ago." Batman.

"Where is it?" Superman.

"Bludheaven. I'll take care of it." Batman.

"Understood, and I know you'll never ask for it anyway but, call for backup if needed." Superman.

"Understood, Batman out."

Batman gets up from his seat and walks towards the Batwing.

"Robin! We've got work in Bludheaven." Batman.

"On it!" Robin gracefully jumps from a high altitude and lands safely.

"This will be so cool." Robin.

"Remember Dick, never underestimate your foes, especially the unknown ones." Batman.

"Got it---*BUZZ*" Robin was interrupted by his phone.

"Put that in silence." Batman.

"Sorry, Wally wanted to show me this video of Roy with a hangover." Robin.

"Not now." Batman.

"Yeah, yeah, I know." Robin.

The duo enters the Batwing and begins their travel to Bludheaven.
