Ben followed after him, gawking at everything like a tourist. He'd been a huge fan of the Omegafriends since he was young, always wanting to be one but knowing that was likely impossible. He didn't have superpowers and he didn't have all sorts of nifty gadgets like Tails.

But now he did and he was here and he might become a hero for real now. Someone, pinch him.

There was a time when Tails had wanted to be a big hero, like his hero. But now that he was a little older he just wanted to do good by people. Be dependable. If he could still do that here then it was enough.

Finding the training room was easy enough and he led the way in. "It looks like we have the room to ourselves."

Well, Tails, if you could keep this dork in line, you'd certainly earn the "dependable" thing.

"Good. Because I'm never one hundred percent sure what this thing's going to give me."

He popped up the dial and started twisting it, going through different aliens. Hmm...nope...nope...nope...Grey Matter might be best. Definitely the least potentially-destructive.

"Ready?"

Well he could try.

It looked simple enough to operate at least."Ready!"

Ben slammed his hand down on the core, releasing an explosion of green light that shifted his shape into...

Wildmutt. Great. He had to demonstrate the watch, and it turned him into the one alien that couldn't talk. He growled in annoyance at the alien device. Stupid troll watch.

Well...that was...Tails hadn't known what he was expecting to see for an alien...but it wasn't that.

"So, um, did it do the one you wanted?" The growl suggested no, but he didn't know if it could talk.

Ben huffed in annoyance, turning his head blindly towards Tails. Well, at least he had that weird smell...sonar...thing so he could "see" to a certain extent. The lack of eyes wasn't useful at all.

He shook his head in response, pawing the ground.

"No huh..." Folding his arms and rubbing his chin, Tails walked slowly around him but kept a respectable distance. "Do we have to wait for it to wear off? And if yes, try to give me the best guess for number of minutes."

He had an idea to test, but couldn't like this.

Ben nodded his head in response to the first question before shrugging his shoulders in response to the second. He then tapped the floor five times, paused, and then tapped the floor fifteen times.

Five to fifteen minutes. Here was hoping it was five.

"Well, I guess about fifteen minutes isn't that long." It was a bit long to just stand there trying to communicate with a dog-alien that really couldn't talk back though. "Well why don't you show me what this alien can do while we wait? It looks pretty tough."

Ben bobbed his head up and down in agreement before pawing the ground. This was a training room, right? So there had to be some sort of super-cool equipment to work with.

Thinking along the same lines, Tails glanced around. Spotting a console, he ran over to it and looked over the display. "How about an obstacle course? It looks like I can specify what kind of training we want. There's agility, combat, defense, and a few others."

Ben barked his approval, mouth widening in a fanged grin. He pawed at the ground some more, the message clear:

Bring. It. On.

"Alright then obstacle course it is!"

Tails selected that on he touch screen, and looked over Ben before selecting the type of course. Panels in the floors and walls shifted providing places to run, climb, crawl, and jump...but nothing that had too many tight fits and definitely nothing that was dangerous. Pretty standard course but he definitely wanted to play around on the console more.

Once it was done shifting, tails beamed. "All you have to do is get to the floor switch at the opposite end of the room."

Without eyes, this made it a challenge, but Wildmutt's other senses allowed Ben to form a "3D image" in his head on where the obstacles were. Pretty simple course overall. This should be a breeze.

Ben took off at superhuman speed. While XLR8 was his fastest alien, Wildmutt wasn't exactly a slouch. With a mighty leap, he grabbed onto the top of one of he climbing obstacles, sinking his claws in as best he could for a better grip. Then he hauled himself up and over, jumping to the next part. For something so large, the alien was really quite agile.

That...was pretty impressive. For something that couldn't see and had no visible nose, Ben seemed to have no trouble navigating. He wasn't half as fast as a certain friend the fox had parted ways with some time ago but most people definitely wouldn't outrun that form.

To get a better look, Tails took off, his tails easily lifting him off the ground as he flew up to hover near the ceiling.

The "gills" on the sides of his neck flared as they took in the scent of Tails approaching from above. Okay, he definitely needed to ask him flying once the watch timed out. Maybe it was because of Tail's hoverboard?

In any case, he picked up the pace. While this obstacle course was child's play for Wildmutt, Ben always felt a bit more aggressive in this form. It was like being himself and a wild animal at the same time. Having Tails flying above, his competitive streak went into overdrive and he dodged around one of the obstacles to try and beat the fox to the switch.

Well on the good side, Tails was content to stay put, because the race would've been over with no challenge if it had been one. He noticed that Ben had picked up speed though and planned to ask him about it after...even though it looked liked Ben just wanted to prove just how fast he could run the course.

Aw yeah. Totally acing this course. And there ahead of him was the button. Everything was going his--

Four descending tones came from the device around his neck, the symbol from his watch flashing red though Ben couldn't see that part. He was familiar enough with that sound to know what it meant.

He whined, realizing he was mid-leap as green light engulfed his form and returned him to normal.

"Oh maaaaaaaan!"

He had barely enough time to tuck into a ball as he slammed into the floor, rolling along for a few feet before his momentum gave out.

Groaning, he reached out to touch the switch.

Oh...ouch. Tails quickly flew down to hover just in front of Ben. That didn't look as painful as it probably would have been if Ben hadn't reacted so fast but-

"Are you alright?"

Ben gave another groan, changing his outstretched hand to a thumbs up. "Yeah. Never better. Ow."

He sat up painfully, reaching up to pop at his neck. "Good thing I'm getting used to crash landings. Ugh."

"Well at least you finished the course in your crash," Tails supplied helpfully. "Still, it would have been nice if the watch had waited a few seconds."

Without landing, he offered a hand up.

"Yippee," Ben stated, rolling the shoulder that had taken the brunt of the force. Yes, that was going to bruise up nicely later.

He then reached out for the offered hand, pausing as he saw how Tails was hovering there.

"Oh, dude! That's so cool!"

"What?" Looking confused for a moment, tails only blinked at him before realization dawned on him. "Oh! That. Thanks."

Grabbing ben's hand, he pulled him to his feet and then landed.

With Tails's help, Ben got back to his feet, grinning down at Tails as the fox landed.

"Kinda handy, huh? Like having your own personal helicopter."
