Benjamin Stone

Benjamin Stone, more often called by his nickname Ben, is a Force-sensitive male fox and the main protagonist of The One in the Spotlight. Unbeknownst to his peers, however, he hides a dark secret.

Physical Appearance
His disguised form is a white fox with black paws, the front of which have opposable thumbs. His ears, nose, and tailtip are also black, and the insides of his ears are light green, as are his paw pads. He has yellow eyes with light green sclerae and his digits have white claws, which are fully retractable. There is a large black diamond-shaped mark on his back. He wears a light green collar, which has a green and gold diamond-shaped tag with an interrobang symbol on it. During his travels, he wears a pair of brown and gold goggles on his head, crimson armbands, and a brown vest with a black collar and zipper. He also wears a brown leather belt where he carries his green and yellow lightsabers, blaster pistol, and other accessories and weapons.

He is actually a large Kitsune with nine tails and a spiky black-and-green mane of hair on the back of his head and neck. He later gains a tenth tail as well as multiple battle scars.

Early Life
Ben was born a thousand years prior to the year 24 BBY on the multi-environmental planet of Laurasia. He lived the majority of his life alone, as his mother, Rita, died immediately after giving birth to him due to starvation and fatigue. As a kit, he quickly learned how to survive in the wild; he trained himself to fight when he was just five years old. As he grew older, Ben became lonely since he didn't have parents. He tried to find his parents, but in a dream one night, Rita's ghost came to him and told him that she'd died after bearing him. She also revealed that her former mate, Tod, had abandoned her after learning of Ben's conception, and had been killed a month later by being impaled in the chest with a sword during a fight with a samurai. Ben, although heartbroken and angered at first, eventually forgave Tod's spirit for not being there for his mother when she'd conceived him.

Having let go of his grudge towards his deceased father, Ben continued moving on with his life. When he reached the age of 100, gaining his first tail, he was captured in a net-trap and taken by people to become the pet of the leader of the city-state Kigma, who'd wanted a pet fox ever since he was little. Ben tried to escape several times, but every attempt ended in failure. Over the years, he became smarter, using his surroundings and the information he'd gained to his advantage. When his owner died of a mysterious illness, Ben tried to leave Kigma yet again, but failed, becoming the pet of the village's next leader instead. When she died, Ben ended up serving under all of her successors. He lived like this for the next 457 years, and when Kigma engaged in war with a rival village, Ben, seeing this as a chance to regain his freedom, turned into his true form and went on a rampage, destroying Kigma and all the other villages existing at that time, along with all their residents. He ran off into the wilderness and roamed freely for the next 200 years before encountering more and more civilians, as Laurasia was becoming more inhabited and villages were transforming into towns and cities.

Kato
When Ben was 688 years old, he encountered a young male Lucario named Kato, along with his ninja trainer Gida. Even though Ben was powerful and skilled, he lost when Kato hit him with a power boosted Power-Up-Punch attack after Mega-Evolving into Mega Lucario. Since he lost, Ben was then forced to become a member of Gida's party, and when Gida died during a mission 20 years later, Kato became Ben's master, teaching him in the ways of a ninja. Sometime later, Kato tried to convince Ben to join the Ako Warriors, a group of strong individuals who were known for helping poor villages in need. Wanting to regain his freedom, Ben refused and tried to walk away. However, Kato, fed-up with his student's persistence in leaving, told him that he was selfish before attacking him in an attempt to force Ben to join the Ako. Enraged and fueled by his desire for freedom, Ben overpowered Kato in combat, where he unwittingly used the Force, and killed his master by crushing his windpipe with Super Fang. Looking up at his former student, Kato told Ben that he would come back and put him in his place before dying shortly afterward. Ben, now free of his old master, buried him and retreated to a secluded forest where he lived as a recluse for the next 200 years.

Ben's New Family
12 years later, on the day after his 900th birthday, Ben, disguised as a normal fox, was abducted by poachers who were hunting animals for their fur and taken to a fur farm. The next day, however, police officials arrested the poachers and transported Ben and the other foxes on the farm to a local animal shelter. It was there a few days later that Gwen Tennyson and her grandfather Max arrived, and seeing Ben, decided to adopt him.

Ben lived happily with Max and Gwen for the next eight years, forming a strong bond with each of them, even though they had a stronger bond with each other. However, as time passed, Ben and Gwen's relationship began to deteriorate. This was partly due to Max getting older and weaker, and therefore having to visit the doctor more often, which meant spending less time with his grandchildren. As a result, Gwen began hoarding her grandfather's attention, which made Ben jealous and resentful of her for wanting him in her life. He also became jealous of the strong bond between Gwen and Max, and began competing with Gwen over Max's attention. Two months later, Max got sick and had to go to the Brockton General Hospital, where he was diagnosed with lung cancer the following day. Both Ben and Gwen were devastated, as they knew Max would die since there was no cure for cancer. Because of this, Gwen took out her anger and frustrations on Ben, which emotionally scarred him for life. Later on, Max would have to live in the hospital for the rest of his life, leaving his grandchildren to fend for themselves. They would visit him whenever they got the chance.

Chapter 1: Falsely Accused
Ben's story begins in the hospital, where he goes to visit Max. When he enters his grandfather's room, he is horrified to find that Max has been murdered. He examines the bloody wounds on Max's body and wonders who could have killed him, finding no other scent. He hugs Max's body and starts crying when Gwen arrives. She screams in horror, rushing over to Max's body and pushing Ben aside. Ben watches as she starts crying while she looks on at the corpse. Gwen demands to know who killed Max, and Ben tells her he just found him there and doesn't know. He tries to comfort Gwen, but she says that it's obvious who Max's killer is. Ben looks at her confusedly, then watches as Gwen suddenly turns on him, looking at his hands and chest and yelling that he killed Max. Feeling his blood turn to ice, Ben looks down at himself and sees his hands and chest stained crimson with Max's blood. Dumbstruck, he protests that he didn't kill Max, and asks Gwen how she could say that. Gwen replies that he was always jealous of her strong bond with Max, and that Ben would kill him if he didn't get his attention. Ben cries that his grandfather was the world to him, but Gwen doesn't believe him, screeching that either he was, or that it was just another of his lies. She kicks Ben in the stomach, then pins him to the wall, grabbing his throat and almost choking him. She says she'll see what Auntie Mary has to say about it, and that she won't let Ben get away with murdering her grandfather. Ben protests that he's her brother and not a killer, but Gwen punches him, refusing to believe him. She hollers, asking Ben what other explanation there is and says he doesn't have any proof, calling him a shitty excuse for a brother. Gwen continues her tirade with the allegation that there was no way someone else could have killed Max, and her whole family is gone because of Ben.

A nurse enters when Gwen finishes, screaming in horror at the sight of Max's bloody corpse and asking what happened. Gwen replies that Ben happened, implying that he was responsible for Max's death, and yells to call the police. However, the nurse doesn't need to, as a man in strange-looking dark clothes enters the room and gasps at the scene before him. Ben looks at him, noticing the police badge on his chest, as the man asks Gwen what happened and if she knows who did it. Gwen tells him that Ben did it, and the man glares at Ben after seeing his bloody fur. The man asks the fox if his name is Ben, and Ben confesses that it is, introducing himself and Gwen. The latter demands who the man is before asking if he's a cop, and the man replies yes, introducing himself as Anakin Skywalker. He then tells Gwen to let go of Ben and that he'll take care of him. Gwen complies, looking at Ben hatefully. As Ben staggers to his feet, Anakin walks up to him with a pair of handcuffs and tells him he's under arrest for murder and that he has the right to remain silent. Anakin adds that anything Ben says can and will be used against him. Ben, horrified, realizes he has no choice but to obey, and bows his head as he is arrested and taken to jail.

Chapter 2: The Trial
Ben, his fur having been cleaned, is now sitting in a cell in the prison near the Brockton Police Station. He sighs and stares at the setting sun outside until he hears footsteps approaching his cell. The fox turns around to see Anakin opening the cell door. Anakin tells Ben that it's Judgement Day for him and commands him to go with him. Ben obeys, ignoring the jeering of the other prisoners, and Anakin leads him to the courthouse on the far side of the prison's parking lot. Once they reach the courtroom, everyone turns to look at Ben, who feels anxious about being stared at by so many eyes and tries to stay calm. He sees Gwen behind a small podium, and his foster aunt, the Twi'lek Mary, who's also the city judge, behind the counter next to her. Anakin whispers to Ben to keep going, and Ben reluctantly complies, walking up to the counsel table with the Jedi tailing him. The fox listens to the jurors muttering and looks up at Mary. The judge returns his look with dark eyes and calls for order in the court. When the people fall silent, Mary begins the trial, asking Gwen if she was certain that Ben was Max's killer. Gwen tells her to check Max's hospital room for herself and that Ben had killed Max out of jealousy. Perplexed, Mary tells Gwen that she sees no reason Ben to want his grandfather dead, and she knows Ben loved Max even though Gwen had a stronger bond with the latter. Gwen snaps that Ben never loved Max as much as she did, calling him a coward and glaring at him. She continues with the allegation that Ben's motives were unjustified, then pauses. Ben watches her nervously as she reveals something is wrong with him.

Hearing this, Ben freezes, as he knows that Gwen is the only person besides himself who knows what he really is, and that she'll reveal the secret he trusted her to keep. He senses the confusion in the courtroom and looks around, seeing Anakin tense beside him. Mary asks Gwen what she's talking about, and Gwen responds by spilling Ben's secret: that he is a Tailed Beast. Ben senses the shock and confusion coming from everyone around him, remembering the story of the Eight-Tailed Demon Cat and its tailed siblings ravaging Brockton, as well as his own blood-stained past. Mary, in complete shock, asks Gwen how she could possibly know that, to which Gwen replies that she was his sister and that she would know. She goes on to say that Ben had been complaining about visions, and that she guessed he finally gave into them. Ben listens in shock and horror as Gwen continues her tirade of how she tried her best to help Ben overcome the visions and realizes now that it was all a waste. She then addresses the people directly, labeling Ben as dangerous and not to believe anything he says, additionally calling him a liar, a monster, and a killer.

Outraged at having to prove himself to everyone that he didn't kill Max, Ben angrily shouts at his sister that she is the liar. He then pleads to Mary to listen to him, but is abruptly cut off by Anakin, who grabs him and throws him down, pinning him to the counsel table and hissing at Ben to quiet himself. Mary tells Anakin no, and to release him, insisting that Ben must tell everyone for himself. Anakin reluctantly obeys and tells Ben to stand in the court well. Ben does so, then looks up at his aunt and apologizes before revealing his true form.

Everyone in the court gasps in horror, and some people shout that Ben is dangerous and can't be trusted since he really is a Tailed Beast. Mary yells for silence. It comes, and Gwen later breaks it by asking Mary what they should do. Mary responds by stating that the people's safety is the top priority. She continues with the statement that Tailed Beasts were thought to become extinct after the death of the Eight-Tailed Cat, but says that it's now no longer the case since Ben is living proof that Tailed Beasts still exist. Sick with horror, Ben watches Mary as she says she doesn't see how he could live in Brockton anymore, and that he puts everyone's lives at risk, especially since he's already killed one of the people. Ben, deeply hurt that his fellow citizens could turn on him so suddenly, feels his horror turn to rage and starts to see red. He then whips around and breaks out of the courthouse, leaving a massive gaping hole in his wake.

Chapter 3: Ben's Rampage
Ben falls away from the courthouse, landing on the parking lot below him and crushing cars on impact, causing them to explode. He bounds into the heart of Brockton and goes on a rampage, destroying things and killing people. He stops after a while, satisfied at seeing people dead and Brockton in ruins. The kitsune then hears strange noises and turns around to see spaceships and a massive army of white-armored soldiers approaching him. He noticies Anakin run up to the front of the army and hears him ordering the soldiers to stun Ben and not kill him. The soldiers being firing at Ben, who responds by preparing and launching a Tailed Beast Ball at them. He sees Anakin gasp and shout for the soldiers to take cover.

The soldiers scatter, and Ben's attack decimates a large portion of the army as well as most of the vehicles and many soldiers. Ben unknowingly lifts some soldiers with the Force by simply raising one tail, and he drops them, confused at what just happened. Anakin notices this as well and exclaims that Ben is Force-sensitive, looking up at the fox in horror. Ben decides to forget his confusion and focus on annihilating Anakin and his army, using Earthquake and killing more soldiers. However, he tires out after a few hours of fighting and wrecking Brockton, and seeing the city in complete ruins, lets himself collapse, reverting to his disguised form.

Feeling his entire body aching, Ben lies on the ground as Anakin and some soldiers run up to him, turning him over onto his back. Anakin holds Ben down and holds his jaws together with one hand, telling him not to speak. Ben listens as Anakin tells one of the soldiers to get a big cage. Watching the soldier run off, Anakin then handcuffs Ben and takes up a syringe before injecting a sedative drug into the fox's system. Ben, now hearing the soldiers approaching, immediately becomes exhausted, and the last thing he sees is Anakin glaring at him before he quickly falls asleep.

Chapter 4: Minato and Kushina
Ben wakes up to the beeping of a heartrate monitor, feeling the sedative wear off. He sits up and looks around, finding that himself hooked up to the machine in a jail cell. As his body recovers from the sedation, Ben recollects the recent events and angrily curses Gwen, thinking that she was never his real sister and he, she and Max were never really a family, even though they adopted him. He then asks himself what will happen to him now that everyone in Brockton knows what he really is.

Ben suddenly hears approaching footsteps and senses strong energies, prompting him to look up. He sees a policeman approaching his cell, accompanied by an adult woman and a younger female Togruta. The fox watches with interest as the three of them talk amongst themselves, ignoring him completely, until the woman reveals that she and her friend want to talk with Ben. The policeman turns to Ben and opens the cell door, snapping at the fox to get off his backside and telling him that the two women want a word with him. Ben obeys wordlessly, letting the officer handcuff him upon exiting the cell, and follows him and the women to an interrogation room. The officer asks the human if she wants anything, but she declines. Nodding, the officer walks out, leaving Ben alone with the two women, who glare at him. After sometime, during which neither of them say anything, Ben is forced to start the conversation, asking the women who they are and what they want with him. The human goes first, introducing herself as Padmé Amidala and her friend, the Togruta, as Ahsoka Tano. Padmé then goes on to tell Ben that another couple told her that they'd heard about Ben's rampage, and that they'd also heard about Gwen disowning him upon seeing him at the crime scene. Ben gets angry at hearing Gwen's name, growling at Padmé that Gwen isn't his sister, she never was, and she never will be now that Max is gone. He then proceeds to tell the history of when he lived with Gwen and Max before he died. He also reveals that he told Gwen about his true form and that she promised to never tell anyone, not even Max. When Ahsoka asks how everything changed, Ben tells her about Max getting sick and his constant fights with Gwen. He finishes with the statement that he no longer has a home or family.

Padmé tells Ben he'll have a new home and family in a while. Ben thinks she's pulling his tail and looks at her skeptically, asking what she meant when she said "in a while", assuming it meant a few days. Ahsoka corrects him, telling him "in a few hours". She reveals that the couple who spoke with them would adopt Ben and they'd be arriving shortly. Shocked, Ben asks if she's kidding, and Ahsoka tells him she isn't. She then calls an officer to send the visitors in. Ben, Padmé, and Ahsoka all turn to see the visitors-a blond man and a red-haired woman-entering the room. Ben scrutinizes them before glaring at them, rudely asking them who they are. The man introduces himself as Minato, and the woman as Kushina, his wife. Minato then tells Ben that he'll be living with them for a while. Ben asks Minato if he knows who'll take him in after leaving his custody, but Minato shakes his head and says they'll talk more when they get home before taking up a harness and leash. Ben recoils and snaps that he's not wearing them, but Kushina insists that he has to and approaches him. The fox tries to retreat, but Ahsoka grabs him from behind, handcuffs him, and pins him to the table, holding him there while Kushina fastens the harness and leash on him. When she finishes, Ahsoka releases Ben, who stands up and glares at her as she stands back. Ben notices Padmé holding a hand over her mouth, but can see the corners upturned in a grin and snarls if she thinks it's funny, calling her a bitch. Offended, Padmé instantly hardens up again and faces Minato and Kushina, asking if they'll take good care of Ben. The couple nods and Minato adds that the kids will love Ben, who notices the neutrality in his voice and thinks he and Kushina will be glad to kick him out any day. Padmé and Ahsoka wish them luck, and the couple leave with Ben.

The trio arrive at a large aircraft and board it, only for the flight attendant to stop them and tell them that Ben, as a pet, is supposed to be in the lower deck with the other animals. Minato and Kushina lead Ben to the lower deck, where the pets of other passengers are staying, and Ben notices all the cages. He is then shut in a large one and watches as Minato and Kushina leave the lower deck. He later falls asleep.

Chapter 5: A New Home
Ben wakes up to hear footsteps approaching his cage and sees Minato and Kushina advancing on him. Kushina bends down and lets Ben out of the cage, telling him to stay on all fours as she walks him out on his leash. The trio leave the ship and enter a large port, behind which are large wooden buildings with odd conical roofs. Ben looks around to discover that the majority of the people walking around are wearing the same uniform as Minato. The fox notices a few of the people glancing at him before looking away.

After leaving the port, Ben sees more of the odd-looking buildings and realizes that he's in another city. He looks around to see shops, restaurants, and other businesses, as well as the city's unique features, interpreting it as a combination of a city and a suburban area. Kushina tugs his leash a little, and he follows her, still looking around. He notices that Kushina and Minato seem at ease here, and asks the former what the place is. She tells him that it's their village; Ben detects a hint of surprise in her voice, like he didn't know what a village was. He echoes Kushina's statement in confusion and states it looks more like suburbs, to which Kushina responds she could see why he'd say that.

The three of them arrive at a large house an hour later. Ben watches as Minato and Kushina walk up a small staircase and open a door before going inside, prompting him to follow them. They walk through a hallway before entering the main hall. Ben stops and stares around him in amazement, taking in the size of the kitchen. He notes that the sink was large enough to hold a medium-sized dog. Kushina beckons him to follow her, taking him to his new room. She takes his harness off and says he can stretch his legs, which must be cramped after sitting in a cage all day. She pets his head a little harder than he'd like and tells him she's going to make dinner, leaving afterwards. Ben also leaves his room and gives himself a tour of the upstairs.

He is about to go back downstairs after his tour when he hears a door open behind him. The fox turns to see a young toddler who looks no more than four years old. The toddler sees him and becomes excited, asking if Ben is a fox. The latter notes the incredible volume of his voice. The toddler then proceeds to chase Ben downstairs, laughing uncontrollably. Kushina, setting a large dish full of food on the kitchen table, sees what's happening, walks over, and picks the toddler up off the floor. Ben watches as the toddler flails his limbs, but Kushina holds fast. She tells him no, revealing his name to be Kurama, and that he can't chase the fox, adding that he'll scare him. In protest, Kurama yells that he wants to pet Ben, to which Kushina responds by saying he can do so after dinner. She tells Kurama to go and eat before putting him back down, and the toddler reluctantly obeys. Kushina grins in satisfaction before going upstairs.

Ben walks into the kitchen and notices Minato filling a bowl with food from the large dish. The latter sees him and gestures for him to go the nearest corner. He turns away and places the food bowl in that spot. Indignant, Ben stays put, asking himself who Minato thinks he is by treating him like a dog. Minato turns around, realizing that Ben didn't follow him, and tells him to come.

Personality
Initially, Ben is a cautious and timid individual, keeping his distance from others, but later becomes confident, cocky, reckless, aggressive, and even sadistic. When upset, he has a tough time controlling his emotions, often giving into fear, which sometimes turns into anger. According to the Sith Lord Darth Sidious, this makes Ben the perfect Sith apprentice. Additionally, Ben has a hard time letting go of grudges, which can leave him socially isolated. Overtime, however, he develops a happier side and a more positive attitude towards the world after seeing that not all people are bad. He realizes this after Naruto Uzumaki calls him out for his selfishness and cynicism.

Kato
Upon joining Gida's party, Ben was initially weary of Kato and cautious of his presence, which he thought to be intimidating, but he later opened up to the Lucario as they started spending more time together. However, this mutual respect between the two withered away overtime, as Kato kept Ben with him after Gida died in battle against the latter's will and practically forced him to become his apprentice. As Ben wanted to leave, he would do anything it took to get Kato off his back, but every attempt ended in failure, as his master always seemed to find out exactly what he was up to and come up with a way to stop him. Over the years, Ben's frustration and anger with Kato built up, and eventually led the fox to kill his master. He did this when Kato tried to force him to join the Ako Warriors. However, Kato told him he'd return sometime, and many years later, Ben remains fearful of his master's return.

Max
Max Tennyson, who Ben called "Grandpa Max", was very fond of Ben, as he agreed to adopt the latter from the Brockton Animal Shelter, and treated him like his own. Ben loved him very much, even though the man and his granddaughter had a noticeably stronger bond, and the fox was devastated when he found Max's body in his hospital room.

Gwen
Gwen Tennyson was Ben's foster sister, and they got along very well at first. At that point, Ben trusted Gwen enough to tell her about his true form. As Gwen grew older, however, her attitude towards Ben started to change, and she became jealous of the time Ben spent with Max, thinking she was the one who should be with him since she was his biological granddaughter. Since Max was getting older and weaker, Gwen took it upon herself to spend as much time as she could with her grandfather, often excluding Ben. This took a turn for the worse when Max was diagnosed with lung cancer and had to live in the hospital for the last few months of his life. As a result, Gwen and Ben started fighting over who'd get to visit Max, as they were now constantly stuck at home without a babysitter watching them. The fights then became more frequent, leading Ben to despise his "sister" and give in to his anger and hatred of her, lashing out whenever she provoked him. Gwen disowned Ben when she found him crying over Max's body and saw the blood on his fur, leading her to believe that Ben had killed Max to spite her, much to the latter's horror and disbelief.

Minato and the Uzumaki Family
Ben is initially cautious of Minato and his family due to their frightening capabilities, which drives him to escape. After being found and brought back by Menma, however, Ben eventually opens up to each individual member of the family and accepts their taking care of him.
