Description Synopsis: When things started getting personal for Sara, she must make a life changing decision.


After six chapters in the making, the full team is finally assembled! Yeah... (cue Avengers theme)

Fun story. It happened to be National Jewel Day when I was writing this chapter, and coincidentally, one of the Doom Minions I designed happened to be jewel themed. I didn't even know there's a National Jewel Day until I saw someone talking about it here. What are the odds, eh?

By the way, in case you didn't notice, this chapter is named after the very first episode of Ben 10 (the original series, not the reboot). I thought the name kind of fits the overall plot of this chapter, so...

Overall, hope you enjoyed this chapter.

Trivia time! Ain't repeating myself about spoilers again..


Super Sentai/Power Rangers References:-
  • When Jewel Head was first created, his first words are a reference to the Kiramagers' roll-call. His last words are the same last words spoken by Great Diamond World from Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger, which is also another reference to the aforementioned team's roll-call.
  • Sara's family occasionally does courier services, a nod to Taro Momoi/Don Momotaro's job as a delivery man in Avataro Sentai Donbrothers and the Boonboomgers' job as a freelance courier team.
  • The Five-Point Attack is inspired by a scene from the second episode of Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger.
  • As Green Defender, Sara's finisher, the Green Cross Fever, is based on and named after one of the attacks performed by the Battle Fever Robo from Battle Fever J.

Pretty Cure References:-
  • This chapter takes elements from the sixth episode of Yes! Pretty Cure 5. Like this chapter, the plot of the episode focuses on the final member finally joining the titular team.
  • Sara beats up a bunch of bullies early in the chapter. This is inspired by how we are first introduced to Takizawa Asuka/Cure Flamingo from Tropical-Rouge! Pretty Cure.
  • Sara's backstory is similar to Nono Hana/Cure Yell's from HUGtto! Pretty Cure. Both Sara and Hana were bullied in their old school after they stood up for a former friend who ended up siding with the bullies and were forced to transfer schools as a result of bullying. Though Sara is visibly more affected by the bullying than Hana. (Fun fact, I actually imagined Sara as what would happened if Hana became bitter from the bullying instead.)
  • Sara's warning to Sir Nightmare about hurting her family again is identical to the warning Hijiri Ageha/Cure Butterfly from Hirogaru Sky! Pretty Cure gave to Battamonda when she first debut as a Cure.
