Chapter 1

Long ago there was a powerful sorcerer called Bezel, much like a certain tiny alien genius he wanted to help the universe. He was a practitioner of magic, becoming one of the most powerful spellcasters in the multiverse. He harnessed the elements of the universe and created the kwami, so even when he was gone the kwami could guide the universe.

The kwami embodiment different aspects of the cosmos; Creation, Destruction, Emotion, Transmission, Protection, Illusion, Subjection, Evolution, and Probability, to name a few. These kwami could form a pact with a master, and either bestow their power upon them or grant them a transformation.

Their powers were great, when they used their powers without a master crazy things could happen. By channeling their magic through another the abilities could be used safely. When transformed they grant the user an “Ultimate Move” a concentration of their powers. Should the host not have magic or a lot of energy, the ultimate move can drain the kwami and the union/transformation could come undone.

The masters of the kwami across space and time have done both great good and great evils. Heroes, Villains, Champions, and Destroyers, they have brought about great changes, while others were used to bring about great harm. Some Kwami are loyal to the end while others can reject their master should they cross a line.

Because of this, some being have found ways to capture kwami, taking their powers and using it as they see fit.

Ben Tennyson was on a trip with his Grandpa and his cousin Gwen. He loved comic books, heroes, video games, and soccer. So imagine his annoyance when his cousin finds this alien watch that turns her into super powered aliens. She uses the power of the watch to become a hero.

Gwen saw the watch as a responsibility she could handle, using the powers to fight criminals, battle evil aliens, and torment her cousin Ben. She basked in the fame and the praise the powers gave her, and it swelled her ego. She was quite different from Ben, she loved school, books, and studying. While she was by the book, Ben would rather have fun, so they didn’t blend the best.

Their interests crossed now and then, Gwen could be competitive so she took to video games for the challenge and the competition. This also made their love of laser tag...dangerous. Ben was signed up for karate/martial arts to learn self defense to deal with a bully problem, Gwen took martial arts because it would be good for her college transcripts.

Ben loved magic, thanks to his Grandpa Max, but Gwen was more of a skeptic. Even battling aliens just meant science fiction was science fact. Earth was just behind the curve and needed to catch up. Magic? Nope couldn’t be real!

So when visiting a witchcraft museum Gwen was not pleased. Ben was looking at every exhibit feeling his excitement spike.  Each artifact had some connection to lore involving famous witches or wizards, some tools being handled by wicked sorcerers.

Gwen couldn’t help herself from mocking the tour guide. Ben continued to shush her. The tomb in question was said to have been written by Bezel himself, it was a guide book for unlocking the secret of the kwami, tapping into their ultimate powers and transformation. “The kwami are spirit-like creatures granting mortals the power to change their future! It is said those whom they’ve granted powers to have gone down in history as gods or heroes.” The book was the key to knowing their powers and abilities.

“Oh please…” Gwen rolled her eyes.

“Shush!” Ben shushed her again. She looked ready to say something snotty again, but her grandpa put a hand on her shoulder.

“Come on Gwen, Ben really wanted to come here.” Max told her, which put her in check.

The tour guide continued on. “The kwami have been depicted as beast spirits, and have been the source of many myths and legends. It is unknown how many kwami are in existence, but the most powerful are the Kwami of Creation and Destruction. Bezel spent many centuries with the Kwami learning so much for them, and doing his best to protect them. He wrote this tomb and believed one day it would train the next guardian.”

“The secrets of the kwami are for me!” Came a sinister voice.

In an instant every was lifted into the air, the employees and guests were trapped, magically bound to ceiling. “What is this?”

“It’s hero time!” Gwen was ready to go alien.

The man responsible for this was Hex. He was wearing a red and black robe, his face was either painted or tattooed. He carried with him a wooden staff with a bird head, there was a necklace around his neck with some strange stones in it. He shatters the case around the book. “Ultimate power will soon be mine!”

“Not if I can help it!” She turned the dial, but before she could slap the watch and transform, Hex released the spell.

Everyone started to fall, Gwen managed to turn into XLR8, a speedster alien which allowed her to save everyone by tying off a hanging banner and everyone slides down to safety. Max works on evacuating everyone and tells Gwen to be careful.

XLR8 tried to fight Hex, but the man used magic. From lightning the banner on fire, and turning the flames into a dragon to chase Gwen. “Nice trick too bad I’m too fast!” She ran around in a circle and was able to remove the air and dispel the flames. “Got any more tricks?”

“Indeed!” His staff fired red crystals at Gwen and she managed to dodge.

“You are so done!” Gwen sped towards Hex, but Ben noticed one of his charms glow and Gwen tripped and ended up crashing. “Alright then!” She slapped the omnitrix symbol on her chest. It’d cost her some time, but she could switch from one alien to another.

She turned into an alien dubbed Heatblast. “Are you some form of demon?” Hex asked.

“Alien!” She blasted him with flames.

Ben noticed another of his charms glow, and he created a magic shield in front of him. Hex blocked the flames but his back was wide open. Tennyson took this chance, he launched a trash can at Hex that hit him square in the book.

It was a short distraction, but when Hex turned to attack Ben, Heatblast was able to blast him with a barrage of fire balls. One of his charms got knocked off his necklace, it landed and cracked. Ben picked it up.

Hex was down for the count, one could only take so many fire balls and heat before losing consciousness. Ben got a weird souvenir. When the police arrived to take Hex away, the book was returned to the museum.

Gwen noticed Ben still had the charm. “Did you steal that?”

“No! I mean, the bad guy dropped it, I just picked it up.” What was he gonna do give it back to the crazy skull faced guy dishing out magic? “Now do you believe in magic?”

“He probably was just using alien tech to fake using “magic”. He wasn’t so tough.”

Ben traced his finger along the crack of the charm. “There’s something odd about this thing.” His spark resonated with the charm. He didn’t know it but his mana was pouring in. The charm crackled, and the crack began to grow.

“What’d you do Ben?” Gwen chided.

“I didn’t...do anything!” Ben gasped. The charm began to crack more with green energy pouring into it. It broke like an egg to reveal a tiny stone creature inside, but soon the stone vanished.

“I’m free!” the tiny spirit zipped around. “I’m finally free!” He howled. It was small, had wolf traits, and had stunning blue eyes. “You did it!” He flew over to Ben. “Thank you for freeing me!”

“I freed you?”

“Ohh yes you did!” the wolf spirit bowed. “I felt your spark, and it was so strong it broke the seal!”

“Who are you? What are you?” Ben asked.

“Forgive me, I am Howwl, the Kwami of Probability.” The wolf kwami said with another bow. “What is your name?”

“Ben Tennyson!” His eyes sparkled. “You are really a kwami? You are real, I knew it!”

“Of course we are real.”

“Why’d that guy have you in that charm?” Ben asked.

“He seeks to use kwami power for evil purposes. Me and four others rejected him, but he didn’t like that so he cursed us and turned us to stone. He’s been drawing on our power ever since to fuel his own magic power.”

“Oh please, there is no such thing as magic.” Gwen finally snapped out of her shock. “You must be some kind of alien.”

“Nope Kwami, accept no substitutions.” He stated proudly.

“Prove it, do some magic right now!”

“That’s not a good idea...we Kwami shouldn’t use our powers without a master. For proof look to my brother of Destruction, he’s had a bad habit of using his powers...those poor dinosaurs…” Howwl shook his head.

“Brother? So there are more of you!”

“Yes, my siblings are out there and they could use our help.” Howwl said.

“Our?” Ben asked, feeling his heart flutter.

“Yes, I will lend you my power and you can become the hero of the wolf, with the powers of luck and probability. Together we can save my siblings, and we can teach you to use our powers and use magic.”

“I’m in!” Ben was so in. He was gonna become a hero.

“Yes!” Howwl spun in the air and conjured up Ben’s first miraculous. It looked like a panjas bracelet, it went on Ben’s right hand, it had four rings, each with chains connecting to the bracelet. As soon as Ben put it on, he felt his spark shine, and his mana flowed.

Howwl believed he found a good master, as soon as Ben put on his miraculous he knew the boy, reading his heart and mind. ‘Just wait my siblings, we’ll save and find you!’

They wouldn’t have long to wait, as one of Hex’s charms glowed and he recovered. The police didn’t stand a chance. “One of my charms is missing, the book can wait, I must get my charm back!”
