The town was as normal as can be, boring, uneventful but full of a growing mystery to be had. This town believe it or not stood still from the likes of time and space, just out of reach from the outside world. Suddenly out of the blue in the corner of the woods devoid of life and people, blue magical energy envelopes the green forest. As the wind flew left and right the magical energy fled just as it came in vanishing as if it was never really there, but not before leaving behind something or someone peculiar.

 A perplexed boy
With brown hair, pale skin, and grin eyes, he had an athletic physique, he had on his right wrist a green watch h that glowed majestically. He wore a white jacket lined with a green zipper and a bumper 10 to the right of his chest, He was confused and utterly dumbfounded in this new land he found himself in, this boy's name, none other than Ben Tennyson. He decided to walk because that was all that was left to do, he was alone without any of his friends to turn to or so he thought. He saw a man, about the mid to late twenties who had fair tanned skin and piercing eyes like a hawk. The man was knocked unconscious and in a daze. 

"Hey hey wake up" exclaimed the sleeping boy, who was disgruntled about his wake, aw, five more minutes Mother I picked enough amber yesterday," he said as he turned away from Ben. "C'mon, man do I look like your mom as he slaps him awake thus getting him up, in. a sitting position. The boy looks up perplexed until familiarity strikes his eyes "Ben?" he says with familiarity. This stunned the boy, Ben, he was sure that he had never met this man in his entire life.  "Do I know you?" he says with questioning uncertainty "Yes,  of course, you do, I'm Rook your partner?"

 he says these words as if they were obvious, that it's a no-brainer he is Rook. "No, the way" is all that Ben can stammer out. Time passes in the darkness of the woods and Rook or whoever this is, is still trying to convince Ben of his identity "I'm telling you I am Rook" and I'm telling you that Rook is an alien, you can't be him" he says with confidence until the turns to him with a grimace, he eyes the clothes his watering and noticed it belonged to his friend including the blue and black suit and trusty proto tool. "What did you do to him!" he says accusingly

 "Fine then, how do I convince you that I am who I claim to be" This gets Ben's attention for once" Well you talk like him... But I'm not convinced yet" he passed for a second as he spoke once more "Tell me something only the real Rook would know, something personal". The stranger sighed as frustration grew between his brow the darkness of the story blended with the lightness of the light posts just at the edge of town, and as they spoke light green fireflies as if a green flame flew its way past them. This finally spaces as Ben comically and cautiously inspects this man sitting on the dirt floor. "Alright, I know that your name is Ben Tennyson, a hero who has saved countless planets and the universe multiple times". He says with a nervous smile, Ben stares curiously for a moment and chuckles "Push, you could have gotten that from plumber headquarters, which me something only he would know" Ben says once more testing his comrade in arms, he smiles at this test. 

 He takes a moment to let on some honesty "Remember when I invited you to my home world? Revonnah, you met my family, and we ate food together with the amber we collected," Ben paused perplexed "We defeated the enemy invaders as well as the  roganders" he passed for another moment "That wasn't on any plumber records" he says
" is that personal enough for you?" 

Rook stated extending his arm up, as it was quickly grabbed by Ben with a smile "I also recall you wearing a rather feminine garb on our traditional. " he said in between chuckles "Yeah that's personal enough thanks" Ben said frantically. As time passed in the forest, they ended up walking in this strange unfamiliar place. "I don't think where in Bellwood anymore," Ben says as they stare at a sign that reads some rather peculiar words "Story rook? never heard of it Rook states to Ben" "me neither" Ben responds "Let's find out" been says with a growing smile.
