2nd Transformation - So behind the cool aliens, Ben's actually a huge dork...

[A - Rumblr Post]

Score! Sumo Slammers Hero Generation the Video Game's coming out in six months! Heading to GameGo when it opens to reserve a copy!

[B - Action - GameGo]

[Ben's browsing a bit before reserving his copy of the game. All sorts of cool stuff, but being a superhero, he probably won't find the time to play much of them. Still, he's available for all sorts of geekery until the next disaster strikes.]

[And you saved yourself, Ben. He diverts his attention towards Ben and grins.]

Any place that serves meat!

[He heads right over over to the counter and drops a few twenties to pay for his game.]

[omnitrixter]

[Ben waits for the cashier to ring up Shadow before he sets his own stuff down.]

Well, there's Burger Shack, Nasty Burger, and Mr. Smoothy's. Plus there's that pizza place whose name I can never remember.

[stalksindarkness]

What's Mr. Smoothies? Let's just go to the burger place. I'm more of a milk shake kinda cat anyway.

[omnitrixter]

What's Mister...? Okay, just for that, that's where we're going. It's a crime that you don't know about Mr. Smoothy's.

[stalksindarkness]

Wha...What? Seriously Ben, you're going to try to make me sick. Lions eat meat, not rabbit food!

[omnitrixter]

Dude, it's Mr. Smoothy's. They're the only place in town that serves stuff like lamb and sardine smoothies.

[stalksindarkness]

...What?

Like-- How?

Wouldn't that be bad for people?

[omnitrixter]

Smoothie magic. [Ben wiggles his fingers in a "spooky" way.]

And it's not bad for you. I mean, they don't usually serve the stuff raw, but they might if you put in a special request.

[stalksindarkness]

I'd rather just eat the ingredients then.

Are you sure we can't just go for a burger, because I thought a game was worth a decent meal, not a drink!

[omnitrixter]

Dude...[Sad shake of the head. You poor deprived soul.] It's not just a drink. It's an entire meal in a cup!

[stalksindarkness]

Poison in a cup. [He is not convinced at all. You can drag him by the tail but you won't change is mind so easily! He wants meat!]

I'll make you a deal. Buy me a steak from the store, and I'll try the smoothie.

[omnitrixter]

Fine, but it's not gonna be anything like prime rib, okay? My allowance wouldn't be able to afford it.

[stalksindarkness]

Eh, nah. Prime rib is only for special occasions. T-bones are cheap! If we play our cards right we might find a place nearby with a summer special.

[omnitrixter]

Sounds good to me.

[Ben pays for his stuff and goes to the door, holding it open for Shadow.]

After you.

[stalksindarkness]

[He nods, and takes the invitation to go out first, carrying his bag by hanging it off his lower canine.]

Why thank you, good sir.

[omnitrixter]

You are quite welcome.

[Ben closes the door after them.]

So...nearest butcher shop or whatever?

[stalksindarkness]

I dunno. You got a phone? Or maybe a grocery is around here somewhere...

[omnitrixter]

Yeah, but Mom and Dad don't have much in the way of a data plan. I have to wifi hop to be able to surf the web.

[stalksindarkness]

Hmm. What about the Omega Network?

[He holds up his wristband, that accessed the channel. Doesn't it have a map??]

[omnitrixter]

Isn't that supposed to be for emergencies?

[stalksindarkness]

It is? I thought it was like... Utility.

[omnitrixter]

I don't know. I mean, I'm not exactly an Omegafriend.

[stalksindarkness]

That's too bad. Maybe you should start fighting crime as a vigilante, then they'd let you in.

But it'd probably take a long time to be good enough to do that!

[omnitrixter]

Ahahaha yeah...me fighting crime. Like that'd ever happen.
