I said I'd upload this! Here we have it, my first attempt at writing an anodite fic! I love them. They are my favourite alien apart from XLR8. I hope you enjoy this fanfic, it was one that I hoped would live up to all I'd imagined. :P

Hopefully I will finish this fanfic and not get bored of it in the middle. If I do that then I am so sorry! Also, you may have some late updates because I'm lazy or have homework. It's the holidays right now so that means I will update very shortly. I will try to update weekly, but if I slow down send me a message or give me some ideas. I might need some help :p

ENJOY!

Lost and found ch1

the discovery

The night air was cold on his skin. The room was dark and all that could be heard was the slowly fading chatter and the sound of his own mind begging to come out alive. His warm breath spread around him in the cold night air and puffed out like a cloud of stream quickly vanishing to the air just as he wished he could. He closed his eyes for a brief moment wondering just what his family would be doing at this given moment. They were probably all celebrating his brother's birthday. He remembered it being his youngest brother's birthday today and hoped that he could call him later and wish him all his love.

Taking in another breath of air he felt a body from behind him shift out of discomfort. All of them were packed in together and all stood as a wall. He was at the very front waiting for the doors to open. He could hear some people from behind him whispering. Some were laughing and joking, he imagined just to break the tension, but they all knew it, if they came out alive after this then they would never be that happy again. He imagined that as his commanding officer had said to stay alert and that they would surely see horrors in there. He could see himself losing his mind to what ever horrors were behind the door.

Still, the image of his family all smiling and waving at him for good luck before he left stayed in his mind. Buzzing around like an angry bee to remind him that no matter what was about to happen his family was safe and happy. This gave him some hope.

Two years and finally he was in the big run. He was going to do what he'd always wanted to, give his life for a cause that really could be called noble. He loved the thought of it. If he were to die it would be in a way people would remember him. He would die protecting the weak and saving the hopeless. The same way his grandfather would have.

Suddenly the doors began to open and without another breath he and the others leapt from the small compartment and fell down onto the ground bellow.

He landed on his feet with a loud scuff and looked up to the ship that they'd came from. Waving the pilot one last goodbye he turned and ran the same way the others were. Snow crunched under his feet and the thundering sound of the others came to follow along with a battle cry as they smashed into the facility.

The facility was hard to break into, but thankfully the main security had been taken down and he was able to slip through the doors with ease.

This place was known to hold some of the galaxy's most evil villains and most genius masterminds of the likes the world have never seen. This was his mission.

He was to break in and take as much data as he could as well as capture the villains that conducted these disgusting plots to destroy man and alien kind. It made him sick to think these people were even capable of thinking these crimes let alone go through with them.

He charged with the others, all taking their positions as they shot lasers at the enemy. He grit his teeth and leaned back onto the marvel column he was using for a shield from all the gunfire. Now came his job.

Jumping from the crowd of soldiers he called, "I'm going to get the data! All of you continue your range and do not let any of them escape!"

"You got it!" one of the soldiers shouted with his thump up to him.

"We got your back newbie!" another shouted as they continued to shoot at the enemy. He nodded to the brave soldiers and ran down one of the lined halls.

The hall was large and painted in a crimson red just to show how many they had killed. He scoffed to himself as he ran and soon enough he found himself face to face with the main computer.

Smiling to the huge screen he typed in the security code and broke through all the firewalls with ease. He knew all the passwords and after he was done plugged in an oddly shaped USB device. He waited as the data downloaded into the small device and watched the bar load. It was a slow process which began to make him worry. What if he didn't have enough time.

While the USB loading he ran to the other controls seeing that these ones were very different. He typed in the other codes and unlocked the mainframe network. He grit his teeth as he tried to open various files, but frowned when he saw that these codes weren't working.

Apparently these files were not to be opened by anyone, not even the person who made them. He scrunched his nose and slammed his hands over the keyboard. "Psychobos!" he screeched in anger. He glared at the screen and then began to type in new codes that he knew were to work.

The file opened and he smiled to himself. He grabbed hold of the keyboard and clicked through the files to find one which- the keyboard started to electrocute and he jumped back. The electricity was a dark purple colour and crawled over the screen before shutting down the entire system. He spun around and stared at the USB that was also electrocuting and then shut down. He shouted in anger and ran towards the computer to find that the data had not transferred.

He ground his teeth in frustration and heard a voice from behind him. A stuttering voice say, "Well, well, the plumbers have finally found me."

He spun around to meet eye with the alien behind him and glared at the Cerebrocrustacean standing within arms reach of him. The giant crab like alien swung one of it's claws and grabbed hold of the man's throat. Lifting him above the ground and watching in amusement as the plumber tried to escape. "So pathetic," the alien chuckled.

"Let me go Psychobos!" the plumber chocked as he clawed at the crustacean's large purple claw. Dr Psychobos merely laughed and squeezed harder on the plumber's soft throat. He let out a gargled cry as the jagged claw began to stab through his violet flesh. "And tell me plumber, what would your name be?" the doctor mocked as he loosened his grip so the plumber could speak.

"Rook Blonko!" the plumber spat as he kicked at the air and clawed at the large pincer. Dr Psychobos chuckled, "Do you have children Rook Blonko?" he asked.

"No!" Rook spluttered as he felt the crab's grip going tighter.

"Do you have a mate?"

"No!" Rook shouted in anger.

"Then no one will miss you," the crustacean smirked as he began to crush the Revonnahgander's neck. Rook let out a cry of agony as he felt the claw tear at his neck, but quickly took advantage of this and kicked at the crab's other claw. The Cerebrocrustacean let out a roar of pain and unhanded his neck. Rook raced from the room, his hand clamping over his bleeding neck

His intent was to leave, but he knew he had one more thing to take care of while he was there and because he'd failed at the last task he was bent on doing this one.

It was simple really and the fact that he knew his way around the facility made his job very easy. All he had to do was find the main power core and shut it down. Rook ran through many different halls and thankfully he didn't run into anyone on his way to the power core.

He knew the place well enough to remember that the core was underground and that he'd have to catch an elevator down there.

The hall stretched for what felt like hours, but eventually he saw Psychobos's personal lab in front of him. He smiled to himself and ran towards it. Typing in another code he waited for the doors to open, constantly looking over his shoulder to make sure the Crustacean had not followed him.

Once the doors were open he raced inside. He knew well that the only elevator that went down to the power core was the one in Dr Psychobos's laboratory. Once inside he raced to the elevator and it opened to him freely without him needing to enter a code. This elevator only went down to the power core so he had no need to press any buttons. The elevator was slow and his time was loosening. He began to grind his teeth and rub at his still bleeding neck that was sure to need stitches later. Soon enough though the door opened and he walked out.

Once he was out he was met with an eerie purple light. He squinted his eyes shut as he walked out onto a thin walk way. Below was a long drop and he willed himself to not look down. He looked up to see that the purple light was coming from wires that were lining the ceiling and crawling through the walls. This was where the power core was alright and it was transferring power through those wires. He looked towards the power core and sure enough he saw a large purple glowing light in a containment cell. It was large and made from a thick glass looking cage to keep the energy contained. He blinked at the power source and then walked towards it. He stopped dead in his tracks when he saw the power core from up close. He couldn't believe his eyes and his mouth fell open limply as he stared at it.

Inside of the glass case was a boy floating in a foetal position. He looked to be about seventeen to eighteen years of age. The boy was pale and glowing a dark purple. His hair was white and waving above his head, moving as if he were underwater. The boy was wearing nothing but a pear of small black shorts. Rook recognised this alien. It was an Anodite. He placed a hand over the glass and stared at the boy. He was deep in stasis and as Rook could see was being used for a power source. Rook backed away in disgust, how could they do this to a living being? He bit his bottom lip and looked beside him to see a table of controls.

He walked in front of it and read the labels on everything. This was an easy method to follow by and he glared down to the controls. He took one more glance at the boy and then typed on the keyboard. After he'd done he pulled down the only lever and turned back to the boy.

The case hissed as it opened and let out the eerie glow from inside. He walked back to the glass case and watched as the whole room began to dim as the energy from the wires on the wall began to flow back to the boy.

Once the boy in the case was the only light left in the room apart from the red ceiling lights his eyes snapped open. He fell to the floor with a loud thud and shakily sat up.

The boy's purple aura began to fade away and Rook watched as he transformed into a human. His eyes widened at the boy as he watched the transformation and once it was over the boy looked up at him. The boy crawled backwards from Rook in fear, his eyes still glowing white. He covered his shivering body as he watched Rook.

Rook put his hands in front of his body. "Don't be scared," he whispered to the boy, but he looked away. The boy began to whimper as Rook took a step closer. Rook stepped back once he did this and frowned at the boy. "Don't be scared of me, I'm going to get you out of here," he whispered. "See this," he said holding up his plumber badge. The boy did look up and saw the badge. "I am a plumber, I am here to rescue you."

The Anodite's eyes widened and he looked the plumber up and down. Once the Anodite had a full understanding of what Rook was doing his eyes slowly faded into a normal human looking eye. His eyes were emerald green and stared at Rook with a curiosity that reminded him of a child.

Rook just smiled weakly and held his hand out for the boy to grab. "Come with me, we do not have much time."

The boy stared at the hand and then looked down. "Please take my hand, I can get you out of here, I can keep you safe," he whispered. The boy looked up at Rook again and then back to the hand. Shakily he lifted his own hand and placed it in Rook's own. Rook ran his thump over the boy's hand and he shrieked. Rook placed his other hand over the boy's. "It is okay," he whispered, "I am not going to harm you."

His badge began to beep at him and the boy's eyes widened. Rook took a hand away from the boy's and took his plumber badge out. "This is Agent Rook Blonko speaking," he answered.

"Rook! The power's out up here, you better get up here quick, we're leaving!" a voice barked through the badge and then went silent. The boy stared at the badge and then back to Rook. Rook put the badge back into his pocket and looked at the boy with a small smile.

His attention however soon skipped back to the control panels and he saw that tucked underneath the table was a small black box. He rubbed the boy's hand. "Stay here," he whispered coolly and then let go of his hand to approach the box. He pulled the box from under the table and blew the dust off of the cover. He opened the box carefully and inside saw that there was a neatly folded pair of clothes. He pulled out the clothes and turned to face the boy. He walked into the case again and leaned down to the boy's level. "Put on these clothes," Rook whispered to the boy softly. The boy shakily took the green singlet shirt and held it towards his chest, not pulling it away. Rook sighed to himself and softly took the boy's ankles into his hands. The boy shrieked, but Rook shushed him with a finger to his lips. Easily he pulled the black jeans up the boy's legs and zipped the fly. He took the shirt from the boy's grip and threw it over his head.

Once the boy was dressed Rook took his hand again. "Come, we have to leave now," he whispered. The boy nodded slowly and Rook stood to his feet. Helping the boy to his feet as well. The boy stumbled and grabbed the wall for support. Rook placed a hand over his shoulder and took a step forward. The boy stumbled again, but Rook caught him. Rook then realised how weak the boy was and understood that walking was something that he was unable to do with his lowered amount of strength. Rook then scooped the boy up into his arms, the boy letting out a little squeak and then staring up at Rook with wide eyes. "We have to go," Rook whispered and then turned to run. Realising that the elevator wouldn't work thanks to him shutting off all the power and stealing the source he ran to the stairs. He ran up the stairs as quickly as he could and at sometimes looked down to the boy cradled in his arms.

The boy hadn't moved and just stared up at him. Rook eventually made it to the top of the stairs and ran to the main room where he knew the other plumbers would be.

Once he was there he was met with the sight of villains being put into cuffs and shoved into cars. He looked down to the boy and smiled down to him. "We're going to get out now," he said with a soft smile. He saw that from a distance a plumber was pointing and shouting orders. He walked towards him, "Excuse me, but I need-"

"Rook!" the soldier shouted and began to laugh. "You're a legend Blonko! A real legend! We all thought you were going to die down there!" he burst into laughter, but then stopped when he saw the boy in Rook's arms. "Who's that?" he asked pointing to the boy with a frown. The boy in question pressed his face to Rook's chest and squinted his eyes closed in fright. Rook looked down to the boy in his arms. "I don't know who he is, but I found him underground and I want to get him a medic immediately," Rook said sternly.

The man laughed, "Alright," the man then frowned, "Hey Rook, you know you're bleeding right?-"

"Now!" Rook hissed and the man jumped back in fright. He grunted at Rook and adjusted his collar.

"Okay, geez Blonko, you didn't have to yell," he muttered and then walked outside. "Hey! We need a medic in here!" he shouted.

The boy in Rook's arms stared up at him and Rook stared down. He lowered the boy to the ground and sat him softly onto the cold floor. "We're going to help you," he whispered as he took one of the boy's ice cold hands into his own. Rook noticed the boy shivering and frowned as he realised how little he was wearing. After all a singlet top and a pair of jeans were not going to keep anyone warm let alone an Anodite which feeds off of manna.

The boy stared at Rook for a moment and then his eyes widened and he reached his hands up to Rook's face. Rook blinked in confusion when the boy ran his fingers down each side of his face. Then ran them over Rook's neck wounds. Rook grit his teeth and hissed at the pain that still pulsed through his throat. The boy blinked at Rook and then grabbed hold of Rook's throat as if trying to strangle him. Rook was about to push the boy away from him, but stopped when he realised that it was a weak grip the boy had. The boy closed his eyes for a moment and slowly Rook felt the pain in his neck vanish. Rook ran his own hand over the boy's and pushed it slightly so he could touch his wound.

To Rook's surprise the wound was no longer bloody and torn, it was nothing more than a scar. Rook blinked as he stared down to the boy. The boy gave a small smile up to Rook and then closed his eyes. He fell forward into Rook's arms, but Rook caught him. He could have sworn he heard the boy whisper something that sounded an awful lot like his name before he slipped into a deep slumber. He stretched the boy out in his arms and looked down to his worn and pale face. As he did so the medics finally arrived. The doctors pulled the boy from Rook's arms and began to inspect him.

"Where did you find him?" A medic asked as he checked for a pulse. Rook closed his eyes for a moment and then answered.

"Underground, in the energy core," he announced.

The doctors all frowned at him. "What was he doing down there?" they all blinked in confusion. Rook shook his head.

"You don't understand, he wasn't in the energy core, he was the energy core."

It took hours, but eventually after taking the boy back to plumber HQ he was taken into care. Rook waited for hours to see if he was alright and after three hours the doctor came out. "Your little friend is alright," he said not taking his eyes off of a notepad he had in his hands. "He's in a state of shock, but he'll wake up soon."

Rook sighed in relief when he heard this and the doctor finally looked up at him. "You seem relieved Mr Blonko, did you know this boy?" the doctor asked.

Rook shook his head, "No, but I am relieved that he is alright," he said with a small smile. The doctor raised an eyebrow.

"You may see him if you like," he said.

"Rook!" a voice yelled from up the hall. Rook looked in that direction to see Max racing towards him.

"Magister Tennyson what is it sir?" he asked saluting his superior. Max caught his breath and held onto his knees to keep his balance. He straightened up after a few seconds. "Rook, is it true?" Rook frowned at this question then he asked, "Did you really find my grandson?"

Rook blinked for a few seconds, "Grandson, I was not aware that you had a grandson, but he is not human Magister Tennyson so I would doubt it, he is an Anodite."

Max's eyes widened, "Ben!" he shouted and ran into the medical room. Rook was stunned by his superior's actions, but followed after him. Once he was inside the room he saw Max kneeling beside a white sheeted bed and holding onto the boy's hand. "Ben, Ben you're back, I-we all thought-," Max began to babel. Rook watched from the doorway, his eyes were wide and curious, this couldn't be Max's grandson could it? Max looked up and turned to meet eyes with Rook. He jumped to his feet and raced over to Rook.

Rook was stunned to find himself being hugged by the elderly man. He heard that the man was sobbing into his chest. "M-magister?!" he stuttered in shock.

"You brought back my grandson! Thank you Rook! Thank you so much!" the old man sobbed.

"Magister," Rook said. Max pulled off of him and began to wipe away his tears. "If that is your grandson and you called him Ben then does that mean I saved-" he paused as his eyes widened and he looked down to the ground.

Max let out a loud laugh, "You just saved the galaxy's hero!"

"Ben!" Gwen cried as she embraced her cousin, tears forming in her eyes. She pulled away and wiped her tears away with a smile. "Ben, we thought you were dead! All this time and you were always out there!" she shouted and hugged him again. Ben stared blankly at the wall as Gwen held him, not once looking at her. She pulled away from him and frowned, "Ben?" she asked.

"He's been like that ever since we brought him in, he won't talk, he won't eat, he won't even look you straight in the eye," the doctor said from behind the girl.

Gwen looked at the doctor in disbelief. "Why?" she asked as Kevin came to stand next to her, placing a hand over her shoulder.

The doctor shrugged, "Over the time that Ben was in captivity he was used as an energy source, therefore it is our theory that he's untrusting to everyone around him," he stated.

Gwen's eyes widened and she looked back at Ben. "But why?!"

"He doesn't trust you or anyone else, I doubt he will even look at you let alone talk to you... I'm sorry," the doctor frowned. Gwen bawled into hysterical cries. Kevin shot a glare at the doctor and wrapped an arm around Gwen. She stood to press her face into Kevin's chest and muffle out her cries.

The door creaked open then and a tall man stepped in. He looked around and saw the three inside. "My apologies, I thought this room was empty," he said.

"Who are you?!" Kevin growled as he held Gwen close. The man stepped fully inside and presented himself.

"My name is Rook Blonko, I was the one who found Ben," he stated. He frowned when he saw Gwen sobbing and shook his head side to side. "I am so sorry for what happened."

"Get out," Kevin growled. Rook's eyes widened and he put his hands in front of himself in defence.

"I was not meant to come out sounding rude, I apologise for-"

"Get out!" Kevin roared as he wrapped his other arm around Gwen. Rook took that opportunity and walked out, shutting the door behind him.

He held his hand over the door and looked at the ground.

This was what had become of the galaxies hero, this is what had become of Ben Tennyson.

The first chapter is now complete!

VICTORY DANCE!
