Title: Speed
Rating: G
Fandom: Ben 10
Character(s): Ben Tennyson , Gwen Tennyson, XLR8
A/N: Decided to write stories centering around Ben’s thoughts on each of his alien forms. Since XLR8 is my favorite, I did him first.
XLR8 was one of Ben’s favorite transformations. The feel of running at such high speeds was one of the coolest things ever.
Sure, it was a great form to use when you wanted to play a prank or ten, but it was great for a lot of other reasons.
The speed. The agility. The freedom.
He always felt the freest when he was XLR8. It was one of the reasons Ben changed into the speedster so much. There was something almost carefree about running. It made the alien mind feel completely at ease and there were times when Ben would retreat back and let that other mind take over.
Gwen didn’t understand what the big deal was. She didn’t understand why it felt so good.
‘It’s just a fast lizard.’ She would say, rolling her eyes.
Ben never got upset with her over it, which surprised Gwen every time.
He forgave because he understood.
She had never tasted real freedom like he had.
