Short version:- Dark reimagining of Ben 10 with original plot and crossover elements later in the story- Features detailed, epic battles and graphic violence- Not your childhood cartoon - expect brutality, strategy, scheme, mysteries and moral ambiguity- Check chapters 20/21 for the tone I would appreciate any feedback or comments on my work to help me improve. # First Arc — Multiversal War When sixteen-year-old Ben Tennyson discovers an alien device that transforms him into ten aliens with diverse abilities, he doesn’t dream of becoming a hero — he just wants to escape his overwhelming sense of emptiness and boredom. But boredom becomes the least of his concerns when a mysterious AI reveals his reality is part of an Omniversal war, where the very concept of free will hangs in the balance. As Ben navigates between manipulative AIs and gods, others with hidden agendas including his own family, and later in this tale, alternate versions of himself, he discovers that power comes with choices and consequences. Each transformation brings him closer to understanding the true cost of his abilities, while every choice shapes his future. ## Core Elements - Morality isn’t black and white — it’s nonexistent  - Power comes with psychological consequences  - Every choice shapes not just Ben, but the future itself  - Familiar faces hide unfamiliar agendas Featuring a protagonist who’s neither hero nor villain, but something far more complex, this story explores what happens when power meets apathy. As Ben navigates this darker path, as threats emerge from both Earth and beyond, one question emerges: - What is he fighting for? And is it worth it? Welcome to a deconstruction of power, choice, and the price of freedom. __________________ # Second Act — Omniversal War ??? __________________ # Third Act — ??? ??? __________________ # Author’s Note ## Franchises Included:  Ben 10, DC Comics, My Hero Academia, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, One Piece, and more.
