In the dark vastness of space, Vlad Plasmius floated on a piece of space rock, his head bowed in despair.
He had failed to stop the ghost asteroid from striking the Earth and couldn't return, since now the entire world knew his secret and would never be accepted again.
All because of Daniel Fenton, aka Danny Phantom. Vlad had heard from a broadcast satellite, that Danny had saved the world by turning it intangible for the asteroid to pass through. Now, Danny was a pledged hero.
But even though the Earth was safe, Vlad still couldn't return. He knew he'd be hunted down like a criminal for trying to conquer the world.
"Oh, if only there was a way to beat that child, once and for all," moaned Vlad as he stared out at the infinite number of stars.
Just then, he felt a force of suction. Vlad looked, it was a black hole and he was being pulled toward it.
Realizing the danger he was heading into, Vlad desperately to float away, but the gravitational pull of the black hole was too much. Vlad soon found himself screaming as he was sucked into the hole and surrounded in darkness.
A small hole appeared in a large room filled with clocks and Vlad soon tumbled out of the hole and into the room.
"The Ghost Zone?," asked Vlad, as he gazed at his surroundings, "hmm, but not an area I've seen before."
Vlad didn't know it, but he had been transported into Clockwork's lair, home to the ghostly master of time.
Just then, three voice began to echo from the hall. Being quick, Vlad made himself transparent and waited to see what would happen.
Clockwork and the observers walked into the room, not aware of Vlad's presence.
"We are still cautious of the child Clockwork," spoke the observers, "his use of his ghost energy is constantly causing more of our people to be drawn to the human realm. And that draw grows stronger as his energy grows with him."
"And he uses his energy to protect the human realm," replied Clockwork, trying to keep the observers calm, "and he has prooven his worth as a true protector to both humans and ghosts."
"But what of him," spoke one of the observers, pointing to a dusty thermos that laid on a stone column, "the energy has created the most activity to this powerful being. He must not escape, less he dare to bring chaos and destruction."
"He will not escape," bellowed Clockwork, "neither human nor ghost can enter my lair without my detection."
Suddenly, the thermos began to shake and jump, as if there were something inside trying to escape. Then, the thermos halted and stood still once again.
The Observants stared at the thermos, greatly cautious.
"We trust you to make certain of this Clockwork," spoke the Observants, as they slowly disappeared.
Clockwork also looked at the thermos, "for many years, you have tried to escape for vengeance and destruction. But as long as I remain, that day will never come."
Then, Clockwork also disappeared, leaving the room no sound, but the slow tick of the clocks, and Vlad's slowly growing interest.
Once he was certain the coast was clear, Vlad materialized and walked over to the mysterious thermos.
"So, this thermos contains a powerful force," said Vlad, as he slowly began to lift the lid. As he did, the thermos shook once again.
Finally, when the lid was fully lifted, a blast of green energy flowed from the thermos, and an image of green, white and black slowly appeared.
Vlad gasped in shock at what had just happened.
"At last, free," cried the being, "but who was it that released me from my prison?"
"That would be me," said Vlad, as he gazed at this familiar, yet powerful, ghost, " and for releasing you, I believe you owe me a service."
The ghost knew this human was right.
"I am Dark Phantom, and I will humbly do as you wish," said the ghost, Dark Phantom. For now, he thought.
"Tell me, Dark Phantom," said Vlad with an interested smile, "are you familiar with Danny Phantom?"
After hearing this name, Dark Phantom howled in fury.
"That goody two shoes kid, was the one who placed me in that thermos! And he ruined my chance of existence," shouted Dark Phanto in anger, making Vlad give second thoughts about what he had done, "what I plan to do to him, will be unlike any ghost has ever done!"
Suddenly, Clockworks viewing screen activated, and Vlad Plasmius and Dark Phantom saw an image. An image that made them both clench their teeth in hate.
It was Danny Fenton. Only he looked more adult; he was now thirty-four years old.
"So, it's been twenty years," said Plasmius, "and it appears Daniel has made quite a change of himself."
"Which makes defeating him," joined Dark Phantom, "even more fun."
Dark phantom headed over to Clockworks chest, where he pulled out two time medallions.
He gave one to Plasmius and one for himself.
Then, the two ghostly villains jumped into the portal and set off for their number one enemy. Danny Phantom.
Dark Phantom is free, and working with Plasmius? How will Danny handle this gruesome twosome? Stay tuned.
