Alien Boogaloo [Ben 10 Quest]

Your eyes open lazily. You shuffle the hair that covers your face aside, in order to see better. After that, you sit at the bedside and get a good look around. It appears the Rust Bucket has parked. Glenn and Max are not inside. You examine your left wrist. The watch is still on. Awesome.

You dress in your everyday clothing and step outside, where you see Max and Glenn, near a lake. Glenn is hanging out and playing some kind of game on his laptop just next to the water, while grandpa is setting up a grill. You get an evil idea.

You hide behind the Rust Bucket and activate the watch. You rotate it a bit...

A green flash of light emanates from you.


Glenn turns around to Max. "How's the grill going, grandpa?"

"You hungry? I still have some..."

"I'm not into worms. I'm feeling like these cheeseburgers you promised."

Max sighs. "I thought that this summer would be a journey for your taste buds."

"Sorry, grandpa," Glenn apologizes, then turns back to his game. He plays a paladin in some kind of RPG, but soon, his peaceful exploration of the depths of the underworld is paused. Glenn notices something weird in the water. He stands up and leaves his laptop alone, then walks to the water to check it out.

...

Something is moving in the water. "What's that?"

PRFFFFFFT! Black ink spits from the water, into Glenn's face. It would have blinded him, had he not been wearing his glasses.

"Nice try," he comments. "Now get out of the water. You'll scare the fishes with your face."

You peak out of the water and laugh Glenn straight in the face. This alien is awesome, but you doubt he'd have a good use in combat. It looks kind of like an octopus, except only five tentacles. It also has a torso and a head, and a pair of hands with three fingers on each of them. It has eight, pupil-less blue eyes that let you see heat. Its tentacles are really strong and have amazing musculature in them, capable of bending even metal. It can only survive in the water, though.

Name this alien:

[] Write-in.

"Stop fooling around, you two," Max reprimands. He looks at Glenn. "Go clean yourself up. As for you, young lady..." he looks in your direction.

"Uh-oh."

Your punishment is simple. You are to go to the nearest store to buy some coal. After asking for directions, you finally arrive. Also, from what you saw on the way, it appears you are slowly nearing Washington, which is awesome. You can't wait to see the city.

You enter the store. You decide to be straightforward with the clerk, to save both your own and his time. "Hi, do you have any coal around heeeee...ree...?"

Looks like you came in at a bad time.

Before you stand two, armed thugs in black masks, holding the old clerk, roughly in his fifties at gunpoint. They both seem rather underequipped, as save for their masks, they only have 9mm handguns, and normal, everyday clothing. Still, it's looking rather bad for the salesman who has no other option that to comply with the armed robbers.

"Get outta here, kid," one of them aims the gun at you.

You expected to be taken hostage. Regardless, either of these would be a mistake on their part. You nod calmly, then leave through the door. As soon as he isn't aiming at you through the glass door, you run around to the back of the shop and click the button on the watch.
