"Is this...the afterlife? Mother and father...I didn't mean to leave you..." Casshan spoke to himself after hearing Omni, after appearing in the white room. "I can't sulk forever though. I was brought to this afterlife for a reason." He looked up and around at his surroundings, and began walking to the first door he saw, Coruscant. He ran, though it didn't feel like he was making any progress. This world, the emptiness of it all, it felt so surreal. There was no way this was anything but an afterlife. Where would this lead him? What was there to this world? He continued thinking to himself as he slowly headed towards the door that he could only faintly see.

Ben had no idea where he was but as he was spoken to by a strange figure known as Omni he was wondering if this Omniverse had anything to do with the Omnitrix. Was he really by himself? Ben wondered as he took a look around to see a man in a white costume which Ben could have sworn looked like one of the superheroes he saw on TV for his saturday morning marathons. Not exactly like them but the man on the screen did look like the guy Ben would soon approach. "Hey are you a superhero?" Ben would simply ask wondering if the man he approached was friendly or not. Sure Ben could probably deal with him but upon arriving here he had noticed he only had a single alien to choose from and he might actually need the help instead of starting fights like he usually did. "I'm Ben Tennyson and you are?" he said trying to keep himself from being well himself as he tended to be very rude to others despite how caring he can be. Ben knew he was in a strange place so he needed to be on his best behavior, for now.
Casshan turned around upon being spoken to. He looked down and noticed a child. He was probably even more confused and worried than Casshan was, so he gave a friendly smile and a nod. "Yes, I am a super hero. My name is Casshan, it's a pleasure to meet you, Ben. I just wish it wasn't in such odd circumstances..." The man held out his hand to the boy, "There appears to be several gates in the distance, you may follow me if you would like, I am headed towards that one down there," he pointed towards the Coruscant gate.
"Frankly, I have no idea where we are, though I believe it to be a sort of afterlife."

Ben would notice as the man now known as Casshan confirmed he was in fact a superhero. It made Ben smile as he held out his hand which he took in his right hand. Casshan would most likely notice the strange watch like device on his left hand as they walked over to Coruscant.
"The afterlife? I don't know I kinda thought this was some sort of alien world. If I was dead I wouldn't still have the Omnitrix."
Ben said holding up his left hand showing Casshan the device strapped to his left wrist.
"I think that this Omniverse might have something to do with how I got the Omnitrix in the first place." Ben assumed as they walked together.
"Alien world, huh? I hadn't considered that..." Casshan glanced at the boy's watch with intrigue. This device certainly didn't look human. Ben must've had more astronomical experience than he did. "What is this device, this Omnitrix? The naming certainly matches, you may be onto something... I know nothing about extraterrestrials, last I checked they were a product of fiction, mayhaps we are from different time periods? You a time with otherworldly beings, and me during the robot apocalypse?" Casshan kept trying to make sense of the situation, though his words might have not made much sense themselves. He continued walking beside the kid, thinking more. "Can you tell me more about yourself and where you are from?"
The time period thing made a lot of sense to Ben as he knew not of any Robot Apocolypse where he was.
"You know before I got this thing I had no idea aliens even existed either." Ben looked at the watch nostalgically. "I live in a small town called Bellwood on the planet Earth." Ben had said as he most likely confirmed they were from different timelines.
"I was going on a summer vacation with my grandpa Max and my annoying cousin Gwen. But when we were out camping I saw a meteor hitting the ground and when I went to check it out but then I saw a strange pod that had this watch inside it." He showed him it again by holding his wrist upward.
"When I got closer It had jumped onto my wrist and ever since then I can never take it off." Ben explained then smiled.
"This watch lets me turn into 10 super powered aliens that I used to become the hero I always wanted to be and kick bad guy butt!" Ben said as he then looked downward at it. "Well except for now. I can only turn into 1 of them and the others seem to be not there." Ben then looked back at Casshan.
"So what is your home like mister?" he would ask curiously as they got closer to their destination but still far off.
"That's all fascinating... I feel like I would have heard of such events. This isn't a matter of past and future, it seems as if we are from different earths entirely..." Casshan spoke, looking down in thought as they walked. "As for my home...I don't have a home. I am- Was, I suppose, a wanderer. An evil robot named Braiking Boss led an army who were hellbent on killing all humans. I took the responsibility of stopping them. They managed to kill off 2/3 of the population before we found a way to stop them. My memory is a bit fuzzy, I don't know if that plan ever came to fruition or not..." He tried to think of more to say, but he couldn't bring himself to reveal who he really was.
"Different people from different worlds coming here, different types of aliens harnessed within your watch, I think you may be right about there being a connection. Let us hurry and find out more about this world..." With that, he began moving a bit faster towards the door. "I need to find sunlight..." he said to himself under his breath.
Ben couldn't really think of how that would work as they finally approached the gate to Corusant. It was all too confusing to think that there could be more than one Earth.
"Like an alternate dimension?" he said trying to put it all together in his head.
A robotic takeover had happened on his Earth and Ben had noticed how he seemed to be at a loss just as much as Ben had been.
"Maybe you're right about this Mister Casshan. I mean I was told once that this watch has the Dna of over 10,000 different alien species. Maybe this is where the Omnitrix came from before I got it."
As they finally got to the door they were soon warped to the high tech city of Corusant together.
"Well for now we need to find out a good place to stay." Ben would be using his brain for once as they entered the door.
"Yes, like an alternate dimension, exactly. I vaguely remember mention of a multiverse theory in my father's studies many years ago... " Casshan explained as the two walked.
As they approached the door, two Storm Troopers were standing guard in front of it.
"Sirs, where does this door lead to?" he asked them.
"Coruscant, the biggest city in the omniverse."
Casshan nodded. "May we pass through?"
The Storm Troopers looked to eachother, "They seem harmless, let them in," one said to the other, and they moved out of the way.
Entering the gate, the two were warped to the first level of Coruscant. "You're right," he said, hearing Ben's remark, "We should find someplace to rest."
