Author's Note

I finished this story at about 12:00 p.m after a long work day I hope like it but I understand if you don't

Im on the news? I better not wear green anymore

Once again I found myself in the realm of dreams. Upside was I could tell this a dream this time. I looked around and realized where I was. I was in the woods outside my home town. Just then someone ran past. It took me a minute but realized in shock that the person that ran past me WAS me. Well he was me from the past. The biggest difference between us was he didn't have leather jacket. It was I realized something even more shocking this me had no ultrimatrix.

"Oh course I must be dreaming about the day I found the ultrimatrix." I said while facepalming.

I realized that I had gotten head of me. Damn that's a weird sentence. I quickly chased after "me".

When I finally caught up "I" was standing near a weird black pod that had crashed in the middle of the woods."I" approached the pod as it opened up. It was then that "I" saw a weird green gaunlet shaped device glowing in the sphere. I reached my hand out and it suddenly opened up and flung it's self on to "my" wrist.

"OMG, this is just like the TV show best day ever!" I said jumping for joy." I wonder how many aliens I have?"

"I" activated the ultrimatrix and cycled through them counting under my breath
as I went.

"11!? Well that is more than Ben started out with and I should be able to unlock more later on." "I"said with a smile.

It was a true genuine smile not the fake one show to people now a days. No one's seen my real smile since...since.

"since you became me!!"a voice said cutting into my thoughts.

"GHOSTFREAK!?What are you doing here?" I said turning to face him.

"Ease up pall I'm just hear to remind you I'm still kicking." Ghostfreak said raising his hands up in defense.

"Cut the crap what do you want?" I ask angrily.

"Really do you even have to ask?" He said rolling his eye.

"Your not getting free and your definitely not getting my body." I said with a determined glare.

"We'll see about that won't we all I need is one mis-transformation and I can use the magic in the Ultrimatrix to take over your body!" He said with an evil cackle.

"Yeah I guess we will see!"I said " See your defeat that is!"

"Sorry kiddo that's all the time we have for today." Ghoastfreak said with grin.

I then woke up to my phone vibrating. I picked and checked my texts.

"You have 97 new messages from 'Pinkie'" my phone said.

"Fuck." I said as I deadpanned.

I went took a shower. Then got dressed and read most of the texts. Before I got another one from Rainbow.

It said "Dude turn your TV to channel 8!"

I shrugged and did as I was told. I watched as an excited young reporter came on screen.

"This Little Scoop coming to you live from the scene of the epic battle that was raged between two unknown combatants. I'm hear a bystander who claims to have witnessed the battle unfold." She said as she turned to a equally excited teenager.

" It was Ben 10 I saw him! He had turned into Big Chill and was fighting a High breed commander!" The young man squealed with joy.

"Ben 10? Do you mean to tell me that the main character of popular Ben 10 TV show is here in canterlot?" Little asked the man.

"Oh no doubt it has to be Ben I mean who else could control Big Chill enough to not only keep a HIGH BREED at bay but also have the self control to not go ultimate at the beging that and I'm pretty sure miss transformed something Ben is notorious for I mean big chill vs high breed seriously?" The man ranted.

"So your saying 'Big Chill' is not his only ,sorry I only know the name of the I've never actually watched it." She said in embarrassment.

The man gave her a weirded-out look before he continued," Yes he has many forms like goop, atomix,and four Arms."

"Are you impling that this ben 10 and the four armed hero from Griffin Stone are one in the same?" She said her eyes lighting up.

"WHAT FOUR ARMS WAS GRIFFIN STONE AND NO ONE TOLD ME!!!"The Man shouted in dismay before running of.

"Err well you heard it here first folks Ben 10 walks among us back to Bob" She said with a smile.

"Shit looks like I'm famous" I said with a groan.

It was then that someone knocked on my door. I quickly grabbed my jacket threw it on and answered the door.

Rainbow Dash pushed her way in with her fan girl smile plastered on her face.

"Well,did ya see it awesome right Ben is coolest guy ever did you know he likes soccer just like me?!" She squealed looking like she was about to faint.

"Alright Dash settle down it's not that awesome." I said rolling my eyes.

"Not that awesome, NOT THAT AWESOME!, BEN 40% COOLER THAN ANYONE EVER!" She screamed getting really red in the face.

"Okay,okay you win calm down girl." I said holding my hands up in defense.

"Good glad we got cleared up." She said calming down considerably.

"Now your gonna help me find so in can kis- I mean meet him." She stampeded before getting a dreamy look in her eyes.

"Why me?" I asked.

"Because pinkie doesn't know discreet." Rainbow deadpanned.

"Gotcha she'd probably scare him off." I said.

"Exactly now where should look first." She said deep in thought.

" I know we should split up to cover more ground." I suggested.

" Totally I search the mall and school you do your own thing." She said looking pumped up.

"Okay I need to grab a few things you start with out okay!" I said fake enthusiasm.

Rainbow nodded excitedly and ran out the door. I made sure she was gone before plopping down on my couch and watch in TV. It was a shame that Rainbow wouldn't be able to find Ben she really excited about it. Which just means I'm really gonna have to keep a tighter grip on my secret. After all she would be super disappointed if she found out a loser like me was the one doing all the hero stuff. Then I remembered the fight with high breed commander.

"Oh shit! I left without making sure the cops were able to contain him!" I rushed over to my computer.

"I'll check the news for info on what happened to him." I mumbled to myself.

I found a webpage concerning the fight, but to my horror it turns out that he got away. But how? That block of ice wouldn't have melted for hours. I scrolled through the webpage untill I came across a picture of the aftermath of the fight. I thought I saw something near the cube. I turned into upgrade and upgraded my computer so it could analyze the picture better. I then turned back into Cosmic and took a look at the picture. What I saw shocked me. Next to the cube was a Dnaliens but it wasn't a human it was a PYRONITE.

So human aren't the only ones in their arsenal. Which begs the question what else do they have. My thoughts were interrupted by phone ringing. I picked it up and answered.

"Hello?" I asked.

"Hi ya Stormy I just wanted to remind you that the party is in fifteen minutes you better hurry or you'll miss all the fun!" Pinkie said happily.

"Okay I'll be there in a few minutes." I said.

"Yay ya later Stormy." Pinkie said before hanging up.

"Alright let's get this over with." I mumbled.

I arrived at the party on time and I was quickly greeted by Pinkie.

"Hi Stormy how ya doin, by the way have you seen Stardust Applejack is looking for her she doesn't look happy." She looking a bit worried as she finished her sentence.

I look over to see Applejack coming over to where we were. She looked very wound up in the way you would be for someone your worried about but also angry at.

" Hey your friends with Stardust right?" Applejack asked eyeing me carefully.

"Um, yeah I guess I mean is my sister." I said technically this wasn't a lie because the way I see it my female form were to sperate from me we would be family.

"Perfect that means you'll be able to help me find her!" Applejack smiled warmly," I'm sure you've noticed by now being her brother in all that she's been acting strange, has she said anything to you?"

" No, she hasn't but your right she isn't acting like herself." I said my face a bit downcast.

"Hey don't you worry we'll get her to cough it up and then we'll help her through it." Applejack said with a reasuring smile.

"Good luck my little sister is as stubborn as they come," I laugh.

"Wait do you mean to say she your 'baby' sister!" Applejack gasped.

"Well she is a year younger then me." I said thoughtfully.

Applejack now looked more determined than ever.

" I'll have you I too have a baby sister and I know if little sis was acting like this I would be worrying my head off." She said," Don't you worry I'll get to the bottom of this."

I was going to respond when the word thing that could happen at this moment happened. My Ultrimatrix began to flash pink and beep loudly.

"What in tarnation is that!" Applejack said looking at the sleeve my ultrimatrix was hiding in.

"My current to get out of here sorry but I've got to go." I said while hurrying out the room.

"But yer sister!" Applejack exclaimed.

" Look for her without me!" I shouted back.

I ducked outside and an alley as a pink flash enveloped me. By now im sure know what's happened Stardust Shine returns!

"Cosmic where did you..." Applejack said as she exited the store she stopped when her eyes met mine.

" Well, well ,well now what do we have here?" She said with a triumphant smirk.

She dialed a number into her phone and said into it," Rares? I found her."

It was then that decided to run like hell.
But this time there were no distraction or crowds in AJ's way. She quickly caught up to me, grabbed me by my waist and slung me over her shoulder.

"Put me down!" I screamed beating my fists on her back.

"No" Applejack deadpanned.

Eventually I gave up and just let her carry where ever she's taking. Applejack stopped near a carousel like house before going up and knocking on the door.

"Come in!" A voice sang from with in.

Applejack opened the door and went inside where she proceeded to carry me Bridal Style.

"Rarity catches sight and gives me a cocky smirk before saying," Looks like we going to have that talk anyway aren't we darling." She said putting emphasis on 'darling'.

I pouted and began to look for an escape route. My eyes flickered to an open window. A pink haired girl,who had been sitting quietly untill now, followed my eyes and quickly shut and locked the window.

"Oh no you don't! your going to sit here and tell us what's bothering you." She said sternly before adding shyly," If you don't mind that is,"

"Well I do mind so can I leave?" I asked.

"NO!" AJ and Rares said in Union.

"Yes." The girl said at the same time.

Applejack and Rarity slowly turn and glare at the girl.

"I-I mean no." She said quietly.

Applejack dropped me in a chair before sitting in one herself.

"Now let's get this little meeting started shall we?" Rarity said crooked smile.

"Alright Missy it's high time you coughed up what's been bothering you." Applejack demanded.

" I don't have to tell you anything!" I pouted.

"So you admit it there is something wrong!" Rarity shouted in triumph.

"You have to let us help you it won't get better without friends by your side." The pink haired girl said gently.

"Fluttershy is right Star what ever it you have to let us help you." Applejack said putting a hand on my shoulder.

"Thanks but no thanks its my problem and I'll handle it by myself." I said removing her hand.

" Besides it just a bunch of stupid stalkers no big deal." I said causally before I realized how bad that sounded.

"STALKERS!!!" The girls yelled in union.

"I would that quite the 'Big deal'" she said angrly using her fingers to emphasize quotation marks.

"If yer being stalked why haven't told yer brother about?" Applejack asked.

"Could my brother out this please? He has enough on his plate as it is." I say practically yelling.

" There's no need to yell darling Applejack is just asking the most natural questions-" Rarity said before I her cut off.

" I don't care if their natural or not, I don't like all these questions." I shouted angrily before the weirdest thing happened.

I started sobbing but I don't know why I was crying.

The girls were very surprised by this sudden change in behavior.

"Shhh it's okay everything going to be okay." Fluttershy cooed while giving me hug and rubbing my back.

"Why are ya crying all sudden? I know your in bad spot but this seems a bit unlike you." Applejack asked I a bit but off by my continual sobbing.

" Stardust you wouldn't be on your period would you?" Fluttershy asked gently.

I thought about it. Was that even possible? It did seem weird untill I remembered that natural cycles override the ultrimatrix some times. Meaning that my forms will still go through any natural cycles through their life and will be affected by that cycle when I transform. Infact the only time it will force a transformation is during reproductive cycles like Big Chill. Of course that only affects asexual alien... I think.

"I think so." I say quietly deciding this was the best reason I could give for my mood swings.

Rarity and Applejack looked a bit guilty after I said this.

"Well we are very sorry for putting such stress on you during such a stressful time but we have you know that not only will we be at your side at all times , but we will catch your stalkers as well." Rarity said confidence.

"Yeah and when I find the two faced ,no good , son gun who been following you i'm a gonna teach him a lesson he won't soon forget!" Applejack said rolling up her sleeves.

"Yeah that's nice ,but I'm tired and I like to go home I said with a yawn.

"We'll walk ya home!" Applejack said with smile as she put an arm around me.

I blush ferociously as I look at her arm and then to her face.

"There something wrong suger cube?" She asked with a puzzled look on her face.

"Applejack did you forget what I told you already!she's a lesbian!" Rarity cried in anguish.

Applejack blinked a few times while she processed that. When she was done her face lit up and she quickly pulled her arm away.

"I-Im sorry suger cube it slipped my mind that you prefer the ladies." Applejack said a huge blush on her face.

" It's fine y-you didn't know." I said quietly.

"Um if it makes you feel better I ah like gals in that way too." She said with a blush.

"Applejack you never told me that!" Rarity said her face lighting up when thought came into her head." Well since you are both little lesbunnies why do you go out sometime get to know each other better. And who knows you might just hit it off and judging by how you where holding her before I'm going to bet your already interested right Applejack darling?" Rarity said while grinning at Applejack.

"I-i wouldn't mind doing it if just to see how it goes, s-so how bout it Miss. Shine would you let me treat you to dinner some time." Applejack said blushing.

My brain had exploded. I didn't know how to respond. untill Applejack leaned and whispered to me. "She ain't gonna leave us alone until we at least try it capiche?"

I nodded before saying," I'd be delighted."

Rarity and Fluttershy squealed in delight.

"Now can I go home?" I asked I was getting really annoyed.

"Oh right lead the way darling" Rarity said in embarrassment.

We soon reached my apartment and Rarity ran inside and made a beeline for my closet. When She opened the door she screamed in horror.

"WHERE ARE YOUR CLOTHES DARLING? DO YOU MEAN TO YELL ME THAT YOU ONLY HAVE THAT TO WEAR." Rarity screamed in rage.

I didn't care anymore I was tired so I pointed to the front and flopped onto my bed as Fluttershy and Rarity left my apartment. Applejack stayed just to lean down and peck me on the cheek before leaving.

I was surprised by this but I decided to worry about it tomorrow. I then fell asleep.
