It had been a few days since Drake's battle with Vilgax and since he found out his grandpa was a Plumber.

Sitting at the table Drake's family was gathered around Matthew as he finally told them his story.

"You know dad, when you said you were a Plumber, I thought you meant the fixing sinks not aliens." Seth said.

"Well when you said you two had become teachers, I didn't think you meant for this kind of school." Matthew gestures.

"Touché." Mary said.

"But the biggest surprise is me and Max coming out of retirement to find out Vilgax, the biggest and baddest alien in the galaxy is after my grandson who has the most powerful weapon strapped to his wrist." Matthew said looking at Drake.

"Believe me Grandpa if I could get this thing off me I would." Drake said holding up the Omnitrix.

"Boys, our family is crazy." Mary said.

"Agreed." Drake, Seth and Matthew said at the same time.

That weekend Drake was sitting down drinking a smoothie when Ben, Julie, and Kai walked by.

"So how did your family reunion go?" Ben asks.

"Let's just say there was a lot of explaining on both sides." Drake sighs.

"I bet." Julie said.

"I mean your grandpa is one of the Plumber Legends and you and your parents work at a school for Monsters." Kai said.

"And yet somehow the surprises keep coming." Drake sighs.

"Hey don't worry it'll be okay." Julie said patting him on the shoulder.

"Yeah I mean it's not like you have to go through this alone. You got your friends and you got us." Ben said.

"Thanks guys, but I just need something to take my mind off this." Drake said.

"Well why don't you come with us? We're going into town to pick more food for the cafeteria and vending machines. Maybe a change of scenery is what you need." Kai suggests.

"You know what, I will. Mind if I tag along?" Drake asks.

"Sure." Ben said.

Driving into town with Kevin, they arrived at the store where they started loading food into the truck.

"Remind me why I'm helping again?" Kevin asks.

"You're the only one with a license." Julie said.

"And again, I repeat why me?" Kevin asks loading a box onto the truck.

"You know Kevin it wouldn't kill you to do something nice for once." Ben said.

Kevin rolls his eyes.

"How about I drop your detention time by 2 weeks?" Drake offers.

"Not good enough." Kevin said.

"I'll throw in access to the dessert cart." Drake adds.

"Deal." Kevin said as they loaded the last of the food onto the truck.

They were about to leave when they heard screaming coming from the museum down the street.

"That doesn't sound good." Kai said.

"Come on!" Drake said as they ran towards the screaming.

At the museum, a man with pale white skin and red robes was fighting his way through security, this was Hex.
