Early morning, Ben has just awoke with groan. Looking to his left he saw on his phone that it was 5:30, "okay I think this may be a little early" he said stretching. Then heard a small chirp next to him, when the shapeshifter looked next to him he saw a familiar sleeping Arachne.

He guessed Rachnrta must've sneaked in last night. That was until he remembered, Ben was feeling nervous about meeting his family after... seeing them die...

Feeling concern for her new boyfriend Rachnera decided to try and calm his nerves. And by that I mean she massages his back, gave him a few gentle pecks on the cheek. And right after it turned into a full blown make out session.

Ben wasn't as nervous as he was yesterday but he was worried if he and Rachnera might've... did "that"... last night. But was reassured seeing as they both were still in their nightclothes. "Well that's good news" he muttered getting out, he looked back at his arachnid beauty.

Then smiled, kneeled down and kissed her on the cheek while she was still sleeping. She moaned a little in her sleep, then tried to feel where Ben was, but he had already got dressed and exited the room. "(Yawn) man that strenuous last night" he said stretching.

Then spotted Kimihito and Centorea about to leave, "hey you two, what's up?" He asked. "Oh, me and master will be going out for a short while. I normally go for morning jogs, and also since my mother is visiting I need to train" Cerea said.

"Oh mind if I come? I haven't been in a good spar in a while" he said, and it had been true. He hadn't been fighting for quite some time, and for any Ben that was too long.

"Are you sure? A centaur training regimen is very demanding" she said, but Ben already surprisingly had exercise clothes on. Weird, he chose those for some reason, "you do know who you're talking to right?" He asked.

She then remembered and allowed him to come along, he left a note on his nightstand for Rachnera to find.

"Hey Rachnera, went out for a bit with Kimihito and Cerea to get some exercise. See you later, Ben"

Time skip

Ben just did a forty kilometer run around the city in an hour and had just returned to the training area Centorea set up. She's currently practicing Jousting and, in Ben's opinion probably looks easier than it actually is. Sure considering your lower body is a horse it's hard to fall off like when Humans ride horses.

But it also makes it a lot more painful, a centaur could bend their back to far backwards and end up getting a serious injury. As of right now Ben saw her hit the target a few centimeters away from the center of the target. "Blast my aim is still shy of the center" she said, then she heard a clang, looking back she saw Ben using WildMutt's body to simulate the same speed of a centaur.

He attempted to try the same thing she did by turning his lower half into WildMutt's body. Admittedly he was able to run at the same speed but due to body differences he had some difficulty in attempting a perfect strike.

Like Cerea his hit was a little shy of the center as well, only this time was on the left. His lance was made from Diamond and his left a mark in the shape of his Omnitrix symbol, "Don't worry, according to my attempt I'm in the same boat" he said turning his lower half back. And he rubbed his lower back "seriously how can you deal with that, I already know the anatomical difference between a centaur and a human with a vulpimancer's body for a lower half but still" he stated.

"I think it's just the body difference" she said, "Cerea, Ben, time to head home" Kimihito said approaching the two. "We've got to get lunch ready" he said, "milord", Ben shifted back into his centaur Vulpimancer form.

"I'm gonna practice with this still, no matter how much it hurts" he said. He used WildMutts hand (front leg) grab a water bottle his host was handing him a and transferred it to his arm and he drank it. "It's almost like using Spider Monkey's second arms" he said walking around.

"Hmm, you're already adept to your current state, thy had been complaining about the back pains yee received earlier" Centorea said. "All it takes is a second try and some more practice" Ben said.

A few minutes later they were walking back, good thing it was morning or else people would've been bewildered by Ben's wild-taur, as he puts it, mode. "Prithee let me bare the spear milord" Cerea said. Kimihito had held the spear for her on their way back.

"Nah I'm good" Kimihito replied, "but you could be mistaken for my squire...!" She retorted. "You know I may get addicted to this" Ben said as he walked with them still six limbed form.

"You may want to quit it or they'll say your insulting Centaurs" Kimihito warned. "Fair point" Ben replied then turned his lower half back.

Then both of Ben's and Kimihito's phones rang, "oh wonder who's calling?" The shapeshifter asked answering his phone. "Sweethearts!" He heard, which was Rachnera, say, "uh Rachenra honey, what's wrong?" He asked.

"There's some weirdo centaur outside the house yelling to let her in, are you guys close yet?" She asked. Then Ben heard bellowing coming from their street. "Well were almost there that's for sure" he said turning his legs into Crash Hopper's and leaped to the house.

He crash landed next to a blonde centaur who was outside the gate of the house. "Excuse me! But what gives thou the right to just assault me!" She roared. "Sorry but you're kinda screaming at my home there" Ben interjected.

"Your home? Prithee are you the master of the house?" She asked, "no that be him" Ben said pointing to Kimihito. "Ahh so you're the lord of this manor" she said, the host only nodded in response.

"So thou art my daughter's native steward!! 'Tis an honor to meet you! Thy kindness is well sung!!" The older centaur declared while Ben walked by unnoticed. "So that was Centorea's mother? Should've guessed by the blonde hair" he said.

He went inside and was immediately caught by Rachnera, for some reason she wasn't letting go of him. "Uh what're you doing?" He asked her, "since the incident with that snake, I am not having that centaur get you" she hissed.

The two then spotted Miss Smith walking down the street, and by the looks of her she's out of breath. "Hey Smith, anything wrong?" Ben asked, "only that... I had... to chase... Centorea's mother... why didn't I drive instead?" She asked. "Need some water?" Ben asked, she nodded, then had water shot into her mouth by Ben using water hazard's powers.

"(Gulp) whew thanks, I thought I was a goner... and wow that water wasn't half bad" she said "uh thank you?" Ben replied then lead her to the front of the house where the mother centaur was found talking to her daughter and Kimihito.

Then she said something about a teaser, which was discussed later on in the house as a stimulant to ease mares or female race horses into estrus so they can be bred. And apparently it's the same for centaurs as well, Ben questioned why they needed them though. Saying that if a human and a centaur fall in love with each other and that if the human was a teaser they wouldn't be able to be together.

Leading a hopelessly forever lost love, then a clang was heard, the gang looked to Mero to see her head on the table with her nose bleeding and her face red. Apparently Mermaids have a thing for tragic relationships and it uh... as some say... turns... the... (starts to throw up) (okay not typing that)...

"Well that's actually very simple, most races of centaur who are pure in breed prefer to keep the line going. And unfortunately the both the birth rate of centaurs are greatly falling, and males have two things wrong with them" Smith said. "One is that they're hard headed, muscular bound, short tempered and Vulgar brutes" Cerea's mother said.

"Okay I can see that" Ben said, "and this... is the second reason" Kuroko then handed Ben some photos. And he paled and went to throw up again, the pictures of male centaurs are rather... gross...

"SERIOUSLY!!? THAT'S HOW DUDE CENTAURS LOOK LIKE!!! WITH THAT PIG HEADED- (washes mouth out)- NESS AND SHORT TEMPERED COMBINED WITH VULGUR AND THAT LOOK!!!" Ben had been switching between yelling and rinsing his mouth out.

"NO WONDER YOU NEED TEASERS!!! MIGHT AS WELL BE WITH HUMANS INSTEAD THAT'D PROBABLY BE BETTER!!!!" He said. "If not for the low pure bred birth rate and the law that'd be necessary" Smith said.

Cerea's mother then approached Ben and put her hands on his shoulders, Rachnera flinched while growling. Papi had been worried that her new big brother was going to get crushed, when Ben looked at the older centaurs face.

He was expecting to see anger but instead he saw tears, "you understand our pain" she said. And cried into his shoulder, "huh?" They all said, "how did I understand your pain though?" He asked, "most female centaurs can't handle being with our mates and sometimes wish we could be married to teasers who were kind to us" she said.

A light bulb then went off in his head, "uh little question... did you happen to be in love wi..." he was about to ask when Cerea's mother shot up surprised. "WHAT HOW DID YOU KNOW THAT I FELL IN LOVE WITH MY TEASER AND INSTEAD OF MATING WITH THOSE BRUTES I BIRTHED MY DAUGHTER FROM A HUMAN!?!?!?!?" She exclaimed.

Almost everyone had gone silent, then the centaur's daughter shot up extremely... well it's hard to tell from expression whether she was more freaked out or angry... its more like a mix of both.

"YOU CALL MY MASTER A PEASANT EVEN THOUGH I CARE FOR HIM DEEPLY YET YOU NEVER TOLD ME THAT MY FATHER IS A HUMAN!!!!!" She roared, the mother flinched and fear. "... that's kinda hypocritical" Rachnera said.

Kimihito decided to move the heat from Centorea's mother to avoid having any more controversy between the two. "Uh... easy Cerea Chan, no need to be that mad" he said trying to calm her down.

Smith noticed and tried to help also, in order to avoid having to fill out a report on why a human was killed between the squabbling between two centaurs. Instead of getting between the two she decided to throw the heat into Ben. Considering what the mother had said, "so you said Ben had understood your pain why is it you feel that though?" She asked.

"Well because of what he said, pig headed ness and short tempered would be a turn off... its like he understood that first hand" Ben then flinched. Realizing what he had said, remembering an embarrassing moment that happened a half a year before he got to this world.

"Oh really, Ben said he was a shapeshifter but" Kuroko then approached him from behind. On the back of his neck she found pink runes, "hmm, Hey Ben kun, what are these on your neck?" She asked before poking them.

"HEY WAIT STAY AWAY FROM
THERE!!!" He yelled before he was enveloped in a bright pink flash. In Ben's place was a brunette girl with emerald eyes, the same clothing he wore only fitted for girls, and the Omnitrix on her mid section. "Ehhhhhhhh?!" She said in shock.

"Uh... Ben... is that you?" Rachnera asked, the poor girl then went pale but nodded. And then fell to her knees, "my man hood has been taken from me... I'm a waste" she said. "Well well, looks like He is also a she too" Smith said, "Uh Ben.. care to explain?" Miia asked.

"A few years back, my old enemy Charmcaster had used a spell to switch bodies with me but instead she used one on me to turn me into a girl while she became a toad" Ben answered. "And unfortunately this was the only solution" she said, "so what do we call you when you're like this?" Kimihito asked stunned. "Beverly... while my cousin Gwen tried to find a way to change me back I had to go under this alias" Beverly answered.

Rachenra then smirked, "so did you ever go on a date with anyone as Beverly?" She asked. "NO!!" The brunette retorted, then groaned 'okay one date for a win a date with a girl Ben contest but that was it... and I really hated that guy too...' she thought. "I had to for blackmail, luckily I knocked him out" she said.

"See was that too hard to say?" Rachnera asked, "I'm guessing it was like our situation where he was like a male centaur?" Cerea's mother asked. "Yup... I still hate him for that" Bev spat again. "Thankfully the plumbers, the intergalactic police not toilet repair, had arrested him before he could get his chance" She added in victory.

"So... I'm half human... why didn't you say anything?" Centorea asked her mother. "Well, you see... I thought it may make you seem lesser than the other centaurs, so I didn't want you to feel like an outsider..." she replied. "If I may interject" Beverly said standing between the two ladies, "I would like to say that back on my world a lot of times humans and aliens couldn't even stand to look at each other. And may I also add that this world is no different, with Linimals and Demi humans" she said.

"But in recent years both humans and aliens have gotten along. In fact before I left earth one time there was a wedding between an alien called a cunductoid and a human man. The result was a healthy baby boy who's powers were actually stronger than the rest of his race's" Bev explained.

"So?" The mother horse asked, "so just because it may be frowned upon now doesn't mean it won't be accepted later. The world is changing and things can only get better if we take the right steps" she said. Cerea's mother smiled, "I guess you're right, I'm sorry I didn't tell thou my child" she said.

"You had the right to know", "its... it's okay mother... I understand that you were only trying to keep me happy" Cerea replied. The two had talked a little more, tears were let loose, and there was a happy mother daughter reunion.

Cerea hugged her mother, but two small screams were heard, both looked down to see Kimihito and Beverly squashed between them. "MILORD!!! BENJAMIN!!!", "what are these two doing crushed betwixt out busoms?"...

(A/N: again don't go there I was trying to keep some gags from the manga in here).

After a while they were released, and Ben was back to being himself... "so why were you between the horse and her mother?" Rachnera asked as Papi and her sat next to Ben. "I told you it was an accident, the two reused at each other and me and Kimihito got crushed between them" Ben replied.

* Kimihito had walked by carrying a plate of hors d'oeuvres.

"Hey Benjamin" he heard Cerea say, "uh yeah Centorea?" He asked, "cerea" she corrected. He cocked an eyebrow, "Cerea is the name I only let my closest companions call me. Since thou hast helped thy close a relation ship gap between me and my mother, you have my greatest thanks" she said kneeling.

"Uh thanks, it's nothing really" he said before Rachnera growled at Cerea, "he's mine" "I only have a heart for Master I only want to express my gratitude" Cerea retorted.
