Captain America tries to stop Hyperion. He throws his shield, but Hyperion knocks it away easily and pushes Steve aside. Without slowing down, Hyperion flies to the town square and smashes a big screen featuring Jameson's warning about the uncontrollable Hyperion.
"Everyone, calm down. I am your hero," Hyperion says proudly. But the crowd isn't buying it.
Suddenly, a young boy throws a rock at him and yells, "You're not a hero! You hurt the Hulk!"
Angry, Hyperion grabs the boy by the shirt and shouts, "Why are you against me? Do I have to save you from yourselves too?" He flies into the air, ready to throw the boy down.
The people below started to panic, they shouted, "Stop! Leave him alone! He is a kid!"
Then, out of nowhere, Ben appears. Hyperion looks at him and asks, "Who are you?"
Ben, grinning playfully, says, "Tehehehe, wheeewww, you need some sleep, baby. You need some sleep, hehehehehe."
Ben sprinkles Sleep Dust into the air. It floats toward Hyperion, and within seconds, Hyperion gets sleepy and falls. Ben quickly catches the boy and lands safely with him.
Everyone is shocked—but also relieved. Ben saved the day in his own funny and clever way. The people cheer as they see a new kind of hero.
"Thank you," the boy says, smiling. His mom runs over, blushing and happy, enchanted by Ben's fragrance, she gives Ben a kiss on the cheek before hurrying away.
Just then, the Avengers arrive, surrounding Ben. Meanwhile, Iron Man flies off to check Hyperion's base, looking for answers and investigate him.
As Hyperion lay unconscious on the ground, the atmosphere shifted. The tension faded, replaced by a mix of awe and disbelief. The people cheered. Some clapped. Others simply stared at Ben.
Hulk, still a bit confused, looks at Ben and asks, "Who are you? Are you an alien too?" The rest of the Avengers stare at Ben, amazed by how easily he knocked out Hyperion—something they all struggled to do.
"Yeah, explain yourself," says Captain America, gripping his shield. "We don't want another dangerous person on the loose."
Ben giggles as he flies in a circle, the side effects of Pesky Dust powers making him laugh nonstop.
"Tehehehe, I'm Ben Tennyson," he says. "And I want to join your team. Hehehe. Am I welcome?"
"Wait, what? You want to join us?" Hawkeye asks, surprised.
"Yes, you're welcome. You're totally welcome to the Avengers!" Natasha says happily. She jumps up, grabs Ben in a hug, and starts rubbing his face, smiling at his sweet smell.
"Wheeeewww, I'm so happy, hehehe," Ben replies, still giggling like crazy.
Just then, Thor lands beside them, he retrieves his cape back on. "Who is this child?" he asks, curious.
"He wants to join us," Falcon explains with a grin. The team all look at each other and nod.
Natasha, still hugging Ben, adds, "He smells amazing too!" making everyone laugh.
The danger is over, and the team begins walking back toward Avengers Tower. Ben follows behind, smiling—but a small thought lingers in his mind: "Do they really want me on the team or not?"
Iron Man walks into Avengers Tower after checking out Hyperion's base.
"So, who's the kid?" Tony asks, looking at Ben.
"That's Ben Tennyson. He wants to join the Avengers, but the final call is yours," says Steve. Then he gets serious. "What did you find out about Hyperion?"
"J.A.R.V.I.S. hacked into the Citadel," Tony begins. "Turns out Hyperion didn't come here to protect us. On his old planet, he took over everything—turned people into slaves. When they fought back, he destroyed the whole place. And now, he wants to do the same here."
"Whoa… was he really that evil?" asks Clint.
"Maybe. Power can mess people up," Natasha replies, shaking her head.
"At least we found out before he had the chance to do more damage," says Steve, looking relieved.
"So, where are you keeping the super psycho? I'm ready to smash!" Hulk says with a grin, cracking his knuckles.
"You'll have to wait," Tony answers. A screen shows Hyperion locked in a powerful prison cell, hitting the walls but going nowhere.
"Let me out! You'll regret this! A big threat is coming—you'll need me! I'm Hyperion!" the villain yells from inside.
Thor, annoyed, throws Mjolnir and smashes the screen.
"Enough of his voice! The world won't need that madman—not while the Avengers and the son of Asgard still stand!" He then breaks another teacup and casually says, "Another cup, please."
"Now back to you, Ben," said Iron Man, looking at him seriously. "Not everyone can join the Avengers. You need to have something special."
While Natasha kept playfully reaching for Ben, he flew just out of her reach, laughing.
"Something special? Hehehe, tell me, Tony! What do I need?" Ben asked, flying in circles around him.
Tony sighed, trying to stay serious. "Every Avenger has a unique skill. Hulk is super strong—he can smash anything." He pointed at Hulk.
Hulk stood up proudly, puffing out his chest. "Hulk is strongest! You hear that, Thor?" He poked Thor's arm.
"Oh, not again," Falcon muttered.
Thor stood up too, smiling. "I am Thor, God of Thunder! You're strong, but I am mightier!"
Tony chuckled. "See, Ben? That kind of power helps the team. So if you—"
Before Tony could finish, Ben flew above Thor and Hulk, then playfully blew Sleep Dust down on them.
In seconds, both Hulk and Thor fell over, snoring peacefully.
"Wheeewww! I can make them sleep! Hehehe! I'm an Avenger now, right?" Ben laughed, flying loops around the room.
Everyone stared in shock—Tony, Steve, Clint, and Sam couldn't believe it. Sure, Ben had taken down Hyperion, but now he put Hulk and Thor to sleep like it was nothing.
Natasha tried to catch him, but Ben kept dodging, acting like a flying toy.
Tony looked at the others, then finally smiled and said, "Alright, alright... you're in. You're an Avenger now."
"Tehehehe! I'm an Avenger! I'm an Avenger! Wheeeewww!" Ben shouted, flying excitedly through the tower.
From that moment, Ben Tennyson became an official Avenger. His strange and fun powers, plus his big heart, helped the team more than anyone expected.

It was a sunny day, and Hawkeye and Falcon were relaxing at a carnival. Hawkeye kept winning at all the archery games, showing off his skills. As Falcon left, Black Widow suddenly showed up with serious news.
"Molecule Man is back," she said quickly.
Hawkeye's smile faded. "That guy again? Remember, he has that wand. He can turn stuff into molecules—or worse."
Black Widow nodded. "We need to stop him. And Fury said—no calling Tony Stark. This mission is quiet."
As they began tracking Molecule Man, Hawkeye joked, "So what's the plan? Turn him into a science fair project before lunch?"
Black Widow gave him a small smirk. "Let's just focus, Clint. Fury's not in the mood for jokes."
They followed leads and fought some A.I.M. agents, but soon discovered something surprising—the villain wasn't Molecule Man at all. It was his kid.
"Molecule Kid? No wonder he can't grow a beard," Hawkeye said, making Black Widow chuckle.
But the kid was tricky. He escaped again and again, and finally trapped both of them in a sticky goo he called "honey."
"Ugh, I've had enough of sticky messes today," Hawkeye groaned.
Just then, Captain America showed up. He'd been chasing Batroc the Leaper nearby.
"Looks like you two got into a sticky situation," Cap joked, helping them up.
Before they could relax, a new threat arrived: Super-Adaptoid, controlled by MODOK.
Black Widow quickly got ready. "Think we can beat it again?"
Hawkeye smirked. "Of course we can. We've done it before."
The team rushed into battle, ready to fight side by side once more.
Captain America stepped forward, his voice firm but kind. He tried to reason with Molecule Kid, "Son, we don't want anyone getting hurt. Just hand over the wand, and we can talk this through."
At the same time, Falcon swooped into the scene, exchanging blows with Super-Adaptoid. Between dodges, he shouted, "Why didn't you call Hulk or Tony? We could've used the backup!"
Black Widow and Hawkeye flanked Molecule Kid, trying different angles to reason with him.
"You're still a kid—we can help you before things go too far," Hawkeye said.
"It doesn't have to end badly. Put the wand down, and we can figure this out together," Natasha added.
But before their words could sink in, Molecule Kid panicked. The wand pulsed in his hands as he accidentally tore open a dimensional rift. Energy swirled and reality began to crack.
Just then, Iron Man blasted in, stopping the rift from widening—for a moment.
"Kid, don't do it! That wand isn't a toy!" Tony warned.
But Molecule Kid, overwhelmed, snapped the wand in two. A new, more unstable dimensional rift burst open, pulling everyone into a strange, chaotic reality.
There, Super-Adaptoid unleashed a vicious assault on the Avengers. Iron Man's repulsor blasts bounced off him uselessly. Even Ben's Sleep Dust failed—he was just a robot, after all.
Realizing that, Ben grinned. "Hehehe… if sleep doesn't work… maybe sound will!" He released a powerful sonic scream, shattering Super-Adaptoid into pieces before he could absorb the wand's broken power.
But their victory was short-lived—the rift was growing, threatening to erase the very fabric of this dimension.
Iron Man, Black Widow, and Hawkeye turned to Molecule Kid.
"We need you. You're the only one who can fix this," Tony urged.
"You're not your father. You can make a better choice," Natasha added.
With Iron Man's help stabilizing the energy, Molecule Kid focused, channeling his power to reverse the rift. The team held their ground as the dimension twisted… then finally snapped back to normal.
Back on solid ground, the calm didn't last long. Nick Fury arrived, walking up with that familiar scowl.
"You all sure know how to turn a quiet day into an interdimensional incident," he muttered.
After a brief exchange, Fury looked at the kid. "I'm taking him into S.H.I.E.L.D. We'll make sure he gets proper guidance."
Before leaving, Black Widow turned to Tony. "I owe you an apology. You were right. We should've called you in earlier."
Hawkeye nodded. "No hard feelings, Tony. We're a team."
Tony smirked. "Well, I do enjoy being right."
And just like that, peace returned—for now.
