Danny Phantom Z
CHAPTER 1
AN ADULT SAIYAN NAMED GOKU HAS MOVED TO AMITY PARK, TRYING TO LIVE A PEACEFUL LIFE. ALL IS CHANGED WHEN HE MET THREE YOUNG KIDS. INITIALLY SUSPICIOUS OF THEM IN GENERAL. GOKU SOON FELT AN ODD POWER COMING FROM THEM. A KI-SENSE CONFIRMED A HIGHER THAN AVERAGE EARTHLING LEVEL COMING FROM THESE KIDS. THIS ALONED CONFIRMED HIS THEORY. GOKU SET OUT TO BE THEIR MENTOR. THIS IS THE STORY OF DANNY PHANTOM Z.
FADE TO AN OPEN WINDOW. CUT TO GOKU WALKING THEN STOPPING IN THE ROOM. HE TAKES A DEEP BREATH.
GOKU: WELL, IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S TIME… THOSE THREE ARE GOING TO NEED ALL THE TRAINING THAT THEY CAN GET [WALKS OFF].
OUTSIDE, DANNY, TUCKER, AND SAM ARE WALKING.
SAM: SO, DANNY, WHAT SHOULD WE DO TODAY?
DANNY: SAME OLD, SAME OLD, SAM, PATROL THE CITY. FIGHT SOME GHOSTS, THEN SHOVE THEM BACK INTO THE GHOST ZONE.
TUCKER: DANNY, WE HAVE TRAINING TODAY. YOU-KNOW-WHO IS GOING TO COMPLAIN.
DANNY: TUCKER, TAKE IT EASY. THIS IS A PRETTY BIG TOWN. GOKU WON'T KNOW WHERE TO LOOK FOR US.
CUT TO TUCKER AND SAM, SHOCKED.
DANNY: HE'S RIGHT BEHIND ME?
GOKU: THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME I HAD TO LOCATE SOMEONE.
TUCKER: YOU HAD US WORKING ALL DAY YESTERDAY. I HADN'T BEEN THIS TIRED THIS THAT FOUR MINUTE MILE.
DANNY: IT'S NOT ALL BAD. AT LEAST WE KNOW HOW TO WORK OUT OUR ENERGY.
SAM: I DON'T BELIEVE THAT ENERGY IS SUPPOSED TO BE USED LIKED THAT.
DANNY: WHAT DO YOU MEAN? IT WAS PAYBACK. HE STUFFED ME IN A LOCKER.
SAM: TO STAY ON POINT.
GOKU: DANNY, TUCKER, SAM… ALL THREE OF YOU ARE HALF-GHOSTS!
DANNY: AND I KEEP TELLING YOU THAT I AM THE ONLY HALF;GHOST IN THIS GROUP.
SAM: I AGREE. WE HAVE TOLD YOU ALREADY THAT TUCK AND I ARE PURE HUMANS.
TUCKER: YEAH! IF WE WERE GHOSTS, WHY CAN'T PHASE INTO THE GIRL'S LOCKER ROOM?
SAM: YOU'RE DISGUSTING, TUCKER.
DANNY: LOOK, WE MAY BE ABLE TO DO IMPRESSIVE BACKFLIPS AND A LITTLE HOCUS-POCUS, IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT MY FRIENDS ARE HALF-GHOSTS… ANYWAY, YOU SAID EVERYONE HAD THIS ENERGY INSIDE OF THEM.
GOKU: THERE MUST BE SOMETHING I CAN DO TO CONVINCE THEM THEY ARE ALL HALF-GHOSTS, BUT WHAT?
PAN UP TO THE SKY. THREE DARK FIGURES FLY IN MID-AIR. THE TRIO LOOK UP TO FIND THREE GHOSTS FLOATING THERE. THEY CHARGE AT THE TRIO, BUT GOKU JUMPS OFF AND PUSHES THEM WITH A SHOCKWAVE. THEY LAND HARD ON THE GROUND.
GOKU: GUYS, THIS IS THE KIND OF FIGHTING YOUR USED TO!
SAM: GOKU, ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?! YOU DON'T THINK THAT WE CAN ACTUALLY BEAT GHOSTS, DO YOU?!
GOKU: YOU'LL BE FINE. DO WHAT I DO.
GOKU BURSTS WITH ENERGY. TUCKER AND SAM SHIELD THEIR FACES. CUT TO THE GHOSTS, IN A FIGHTING STANCE. THEY BEND THEIR KNEES AND TAKE FLIGHT WITH THEIR GHOSTLY TAILS, AND FLIES CLOSER TO GOKU. GOKU TAKES OFF. GOKU PUNCHES A GHOST. THE GHOST IS THROWN UPWARD.
GOKU: HELP ME WITH THIS GHOST TRASH!
CUT TO DANNY. DANNY'S EYES FLASHED GREEN. DANNY TRANSFORMS INTO PHANTOM, BEGINS TO LEVITATE, RISING HIGHER, THEN HOVERING. HE TACKLES ONE GHOST.
TUCKER: OH… HOLY S-SHIT… SAM… DO YOU THINK WE CAN DO THIS?
SAM: TUCKER? I-
TUCKER: THERE SEEMS TO BE THIS ODD SENSATION THAT'S TELLING ME TO STAY AND FIGHT.
SAM: TUCKER, WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? WE DON'T STAND A CHANCE AGAINST GHOSTS-[RUNS, BUT STOPS SUDDENLY AS AN INVISIBLE FORCE PREVENTS HIM FROM RUNNING AWAY.] WHY CAN'T I RUN AWAY? I CAN'T RUN AWAY, EVEN THOUGH I WANT TO.
TUCKER: I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS, BUT I'M FEELING EXCITED.
A GHOST SWINGS A POWERFUL PUNCH AT TUCKER, BUT HE BLOCKS THE GHOST'S FIST. TUCKER PUNCHES IT AND SENDS IT FLYING AWAY.
TUCKER: I-I JUST SENT IT FLYING… SAM… DID YOU SEE THAT?
SAM: I SAW IT. IS IT POSSIBLE THAT WE…? COULD WE REALLY…? [CLOSES EYES]
CUT TO THE GHOST, SENT FLYING. IT RECOVERS AND RUSHES AT SAM. SAM GLOWS GREEN WITH GHOSTLY ENERGY, BLOCKS THE GHOST'S PUNCH, PULVERIZES IT, AND SENDS IT FLYING AWAY.
SAM: WE CAN DO THIS!
THE GHOST LANDS HARD ON THE GROUND. THE GHOST, WEAK FROM THE ATTACK, GETS UP.
CUT TO THE GHOST THAT DANNY IS FIGHTING. IT CHARGES AND PUNCHES DANNY, BUT DANNY TURNS INTANGIBLE. THE GHOST PUNCHES DANNY EVERYWHERE IT CAN THINK OF, BUT TO NO AVAIL.
GOKU: THIS IS PERFECT. IF THE SURVIVE THIS EXPERIENCE, THEY MAY HAVE A CHANCE TO LEARN THEIR TRUE HISTORY… BUT THE QUESTION IS… [A GHOST CHARGES HARD AT GOKU WHO MANAGES TO BLOCK IT.] WHERE DID THESE GHOSTS COME FROM? [KICKS IT AWAY] I KNOW DANNY HAS MADE A LOT OF ENEMIES… BUT MOST OF THEM DON'T START PICKING FIGHTS WITH HIM.
PAN UP TO THE SKY. GOHAN IS FLYING IN MID-AIR.
GOHAN: I CAN SENSE IT… FATHER IS FIGHT, BUT HE'S NOT TAKING HIS FIGHT SERIOUSLY, THERE ARE THREE OTHER POWER LEVELS NEAR HIM, TOO… COULD THEY BE THE THREE THAT MY DAD HAS BEEN TALKING ABOUT? [FLIES FASTER]
CUT TO GOKU, SENSING HIS SON.
GOKU: WELL, LOOK WHO'S COME TO JOIN THE PARTY.
A GHOST ATTEMPTS TO TRY TO PUNCH HIM, BUT GOKU WARPS BEHIND THE GHOST, SLICING ITS BODY, WHICH CAUSED IT TO DISSOLVES INTO ECTOPLASM.
GOKU: THESE GHOULS ARE WEAKLINGS.
CUT TO THE TIRED GHOST, LOOKING AT SAM. PAN TO TUCKER. ONE GHOST LANDS BEHIND HIM. TUCKER TURNS AROUND, SURPRISED. THE GHOST CHARGES AT TUCKER, BUT ITS PUNCH IS BLOCKED BY GOHAN.
TUCKER: WHO THE-
GOHAN: YOU MAY CALL ME GOHAN. AND SNEAK ATTACKS ARE NOT HONORABLE.
GOHAN FIRES AN ENERGY WAVE THAT DISINTEGRATES THE GHOST.
CUT TO THE GHOST, STILL PUNCHING AN INTANGIBLE DANNY. DANNY DECAPITATES THE GHOST, CAUSING IT TO DISSOLVE INTO ECTOPLASM. DANNY WALKS OVER TO THE OTHERS AND CHANGES BACK TO HIS HUMAN SELF.
GOHAN: WELL, THAT'S THAT. FATHER, ARE THE THREE YOU TOLD ME ABOUT.
GOKU: THAT'S RIGHT.
DANNY: YOU KNOW HIM?
GOKU: THIS IS MY SON, GOHAN.
SAM: GOOD! GOHAN, CAN YOU TELL YOUR FATHER TO DROP THIS WHOLE "MY FRIENDS ARE GHOSTS" THEORY?
GOHAN: WHY WOULD TELL MY FATHER TO DROP SOMETHING THAT IS COMPLETELY TRUE? FINDING GHOSTS THAT CAN FIGHT THE WAY WE DO IS HARD TO FIND THESE DAYS. I WOULD SAY YOUR ABILITIES PROVE MY FATHER'S STATEMENT.
GOHAN HEARD SOMETHING. THREE MORE GHOSTS LAND TO THE GROUND.
DANNY: SERIOUSLY?! MORE GHOSTS?!
GOHAN: DAMN. OKAY, WHAT WE SHOULD DO IS-
GOKU: GOHAN, STOP. THESE THREE WILL TAKE CARE OF THEM.
GOHAN: ARE YOU SURE? THEY'RE STILL GETTING USED TO THIS.
GOKU: PUSHING THEM THROUGH THEIR LIMITS WILL ALLOW THEIR POWERS TO BLOSSOM. DANNY, YOU ARE TO FIGHT THEM WITHOUT TRANSFORMING INTO YOUR GHOSTLY FORM
GOHAN: OKAY. YOU HEARD HIM.
DANNY: GOHAN?
GOHAN: I TRUST MY FATHER'S JUDGEMENT. HE KNOWS BEST. IF THINKS YOUR GOING TO WIN, THEN I KNOW THAT YOU ARE GOING TO WIN. GO ON AND TAKE THEM DOWN.
DANNY RUSHES AND TACKLES A GHOST AWAY.
GOKU: THREE-ON-THREE. THIS SHOULD BE A FAIR FIGHT.
TUCKER AND A GHOST FLY TOWARD ONE ANOTHER. DANNY PUNCHES IT AND IT LANDS HARD ON THE GROUND.
TUCKER: IT'S LIKE MY BODY'S AS LIGHT AS A FEATHER
SAM: HERE GOES NOTHING.
SAM AND HER GHOST RUSH TOWARD ONE ANOTHER. SAM TURNS INVISIBLE, AND HER GHOST PUNCHES HER BUT MISSES.
SAM: IT'S WEIRD. I'M… ACTUALLY… INVISIBLY?
SAM BLOCKS A PUNCH FROM THE GHOST. THE GHOST GOES ON THE OFFENSIVE, LANDING BLOW AFTER BLOW TO THE GHOST AND MAKING SURE SAM FEELS EVERY ONE OF THEM.
DANNY: SAM!
DANNY'S GHOST GETS UP. CUT TO SAM. HER WOUNDS HEALED RAPIDLY.
SAM: M-MY… WOUNDS… ARE HEALED. [TAKES A FIGHTING STANCE]
DANNY: WELL, IF SAM CAN HEAL, THEN… [DANNY'S GHOST ATTACK, BUT DANNY BLOCKS THE ATTACK] YOU'RE FINISHED. [KICKS IT AWAY]
TUCKER BLOCKS HIS GHOST'S PUNCHES. TUCKER LINKS HIS HANDS WITH ITS IN AN ATTEMPT TO WRESTLE IT DOWN. THEIR HANDS SHAKE WITH EFFORT.
TUCKER: STAY DOWN, YOU SPECTRAL PSYCHO.
TUCKER IS ON THE OFFENSIVE, HE KICKS IT AWAY. HE SLICES ITS BODY, WHICH DISSOLVED INTO ECTOPLASM.
TUCKER: REST IN GOO.
CUT TO SAM. HER GHOST PUNCHES SAM, BUT SHE BLOCK IT. SAM BLASTS IT INTO GHOSTLY ASHES.
CUT TO DANNY. HE AND HIS GHOST ENGAGE INTO HAND-TO-HAND COMBAT. DANNY GOES ON THE OFFENSIVE, PUNCHING IN THE STOMACH. DANNY GLOWS GREEN WITH GHOSTLY ENERGY. HE FIRE A GHOST RAY THAT DISINTEGRATES THE GHOST. DANNY IS WEAK FROM THE ATTACK.
DANNY: THIS IS WHAT IT'S LIKE TO FIGHT LIKE A HUMAN.
FADE TO A LABORATORY. A DARK FIGURE STARES AT THE VIEWER FROM IT GHOST PORTAL.
DARK FIGURE: HOW COULD THIS BE? FENTURD AND HIS LOSER FRIENDS ACTUALLY TOOK DOWN MY GHOSTS? [IT REVEALED TO BE DASH BAXTER] FINE. I LIKE TO SEE THOSE HIGH SCHOOL REJECTS FACE THESE VERSIONS.
BACK TO THE OTHERS. GOKU HEARD SOMETHING.
GOHAN: IS SOMETHING WRONG, FATHER?
GOKU: I HEARD SOMETHING.
FIVE GHOSTS LAND ON THE GROUND.
GOHAN: WHERE ARE THESE GHOSTS COMING FROM?
GOKU: ALRIGHT. NOW THAT WE GOT TO KNOW ONE ANOTHER, WHO ON THIS PLANET DID YOU MESS WITH?
DANNY: I KIND OF HAVE A LOT OF ENEMIES THAT I CAN'T KEEP COUNT.
GOHAN: DOES ANYONE KNOW ANY PLACE TO TAKE THIS FIGHT?
DANNY: THERE'S A PLACE IN THE GHOST ZONE. SOMETIMES I GO THERE TO GET AWAY FROM IT ALL. FOLLOW ME.
DANNY DROPS A DEVICE ON THE GROUND. A DISC OF GREEN SWIRLING LIGHT BEGINS TO FORM ABOVE IT. TEAM PHANTOM AND THE Z-FIGHTERS JUMP INTO THE PORTAL. THE OTHER GHOSTS FOLLOW THEM INTO THE PORTAL. CUT TO AN AREA. TEAM PHANTOM AND THE Z-FIGHTERS LAND TO THE GROUND.
GOKU: THIS IS THE PLACE?
DANNY: THAT'S RIGHT.
GOKU: LOOKS PRETTY… OPEN. YOU DEFINITELY HAVE A LOT OF SPACE HERE.
THE OTHER GHOSTS FLY THROUGH THE PORTAL.
GOKU: GOHAN, LETS SHOW THEM HOW IT'S DONE.
GOKU BURSTS WITH ENERGY. GOHAN BURST WITH ENERGY, TOO.
GOHAN: Z-FIGHTERS STYLE
THEY CHARGE AND PUNCH TWO GHOSTS AWAY. THREE SHOW UP.
SAM: Z-FIGHTERS?
DANNY: THEY'RE AMAZING. JUST WHERE DID THESE GUYS OBTAIN THEIR POWER?
SAM: THEY'RE… GOHAN, STUDENT OF PICCOLO'S ACADEMY, HALF-SAIYAN.
TWO GHOSTS SURROUND GOHAN. GOHAN BLOCKS EVERY ATTACK, BEFORE HE COUNTERATTACKS. HE PUNCHES ONE GHOST, RAPIDLY. AND KICKS ITS HEAD OFF, CAUSING IT TO DISSOLVE TO ECTOPLASM.
PAN UP TO THE SKY. GOKU FLIES ACROSS THE SKY, WITH THE THREE GHOSTS IN HOT PURSUIT.
SAM: GOKU, FOUNDER, LEADER, AND MAIN COMBATANT OF THE Z-FIGHTERS.
GOKU COMES TO A SCREECHING HALT, TURNS AROUND AND KICKS A GHOST IN THE AIR, POUNDS ANOTHER ONE INTO THE GROUND. ANOTHER ONE PUNCHES GOKU, TO NO KICKS IT AWAY AND BLASTS ANOTHER GHOST INTO ECTOPLASM. GOKU LANDS SO THAT FOR A MOMENT GOKU AND GOHAN ARE BACK-TO-BACK.
SAM: THEY'RE TWO OF THE SAIYANS FROM THE Z-FIGHTERS!
GOKU AND GOHAN RAISE THEIR HANDS AND BLASTS TWO GHOSTS.
CUT TO TEAM PHANTOM, SURPRISED. ZOOM OUT TO SEE THIS SCENE FRAMED IN A GHOST PORTAL.
DASH: I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! THOSE GUYS… THINGS WERE BAD WHEN FENTON HAD NO RESPECT FOR ME… BUT NOW HE'S USING HIS POWERS TO HUMILIATE ME. I ALREADY WANTED THOSE LITTLE FUCKERS TO LEAVE THIS CASPER HIGH, BUT NOW… THAT FENTON…
[FADE TO A FLASHBACK, IN CASPER HIGH.]
DANNY: I'M GLAD GOKU LET US HAVE A DAY-OFF FROM TRAINING. WE CAN JUST RELAX.
SAM: DANNY, AT LEAST WE'RE GETTING SOME EXERCISE.
DASH: HEY, LOSERS!
TEAM PHANTOM LOOKED SURPRISED AND SAW DASH..
DASH: IT'S PAYBACK TIME! NOW THAT I KNOW THAT IT WAS YOU BEHIND ALL THE WEIRD THINGS THAT HAVE HAPPENED TO ME IN SCHOOL.
TUCKER: C-CALM DOWN, DASH.
CAN IT, TECHNOGEEK. YOU AND THAT WEIRD GOTH GIRL ARE PART OF THIS, I'M SURE! YOU BITCHES ARE GET POUNDED! [LOOKS OVER TO DANNY] FENTON, YOU ARE THE MAIN CAUSE OF THIS, SO YOU ARE THE FIRST. [RUNS UP, AND DANNY GOES GHOST, AND FLIES INVISIBLY DOWN THE HALLWAY, THEN OVERSHADOWS DASH. DANNY THEN SLAMS DASH'S HEAD INTO A LOCKER TWICE BEFORE DROPPING HIM ONTO THE FLOOR, THEN LEAVES DASH'S BODY. THEN, POPS BACK TO HUMAN FORM.]
SAM: DANNY!
DANNY: I-IT WAS A REFLEX.
DASH GETS UP, HUMILIATED, THEN TAKES OFF.
DANNY: THAT'LL TEACH HIM NOT TO MESS WITH ME ANYMORE.
CUT TO DASH: NOT AGAIN… I WON'T STAND FOR IT… NOT THIS TIME [EYES FLASH RED].
BACK TO THE PRESENT.
DASH: TEAM PHANTOM… THERE GONNA PAY… THOSE ASSHOLES! [EYES FLASH RED]
CUT TO THE VIEWER. THE SCENE IN THE GHOST PORTAL CHANGES TO A WAVERING SHOT OF A DARK FIGURE.
DASH: IT'S YOU.
DARK FIGURE: HELLO, DASH. MY SOURCES TELL ME THAT YOU SEEM TO BE HAVING SOME DIFFICULTIES WITH YOUR ASSIGNMENT.
DASH: IT'S JUST A MINOR ANNOYANCE. I CAN TAKE CARE OF-
DARK FIGURE: SILENCE! MY PLAN WILL PROCEED TO MOTION. UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE CAUGHT BY THE OTHERS, YOU ARE GOING DO WHAT I SAY. IF YOU DON'T, THE OTHERS WILL GET YOU, BEFORE I DO. SO FAR, YOU SENT OUT THE LOWER VERSIONS OF MY GHOSTS. THESE ARE THE HIGHER LEVELS OF THEM.
SCENE CHANGE: TO TEAM PHANTOM.
DANNY: THAT WAS AMAZING! WITH POWERS LIKE THAT, NO WONDER YOU'RE SO STRONG.
SAM: IS IT ALL TRUE?
GOHAN: IS ALL WHAT TRUE?
SAM: THAT YOU GUYS ARE ACTUALLY THE Z-FIGHTERS?
GOHAN: YEAH, THAT'S US.
SAM: THAT MEANS YOU'RE…
GOKU: THE LEADER OF THE Z-FIGHTERS. BACK THEN, WE WERE THE TYPE OF PEOPLE WHO NEEDED TO BE TRAINED BY MENTORS TO LEARN HOW TO CONTROL OUR POWERS. THAT'S THE REASON WHY I STARTED TRAINING YOU THREE. TO BETTER HELP YOU CONTROL YOUR POWERS.
CUT TO TEAM PHANTOM.
DANNY: I GUESS YOU WERE RIGHT ABOUT US BEING HALF-GHOSTS.
TUCKER: IS IT POSSIBLE THAT EARTHLINGS HAVE EVOLVED TO A POINT WHERE THEY GHOST-LIKE POWERS… YEAH I GUESS WE ARE GHOSTS.
GOHAN: YEAH.
GOKU: THEY'RE FINALLY GETTING THIS.
SUDDENLY, THUNDER IS HEARD.
SAM: VORTEX?
DANNY: NO WAY! IF HE WAS HERE, MY GHOST SENSE WOULD GO OFF.
DANNY'S GHOST SENSE GOES OFF.
GOKU SAVES TEAM PHANTOM BY PUSHING THEM, ALONG WITH HIMSELF, FORWARD TO DODGE A BLAST OF ECTO-ENERGY. THEY RECOVER QUICKLY AND FACE A CLOUD OF SMOKE ONLY ABLE TO SEE AN UNKNOWN SHADOW. THE REST OF THE SMOKE DISSIPATES TO REVEAL A GHOST.
THE GHOST AND GOKU CHARGE AT EACH OTHER, LINKING THEIR FISTS. THE GHOST PUNCHES GOKU AWAY. GOHAN PUNCHES THE GHOST, WHO IN RETURN PUNCHES HIM BACK.
GOKU AND GOHAN CHARGE AND PUNCHES THE GHOST. THEY FIRE A BLAST THAT OBSCURES THE GHOST ON VIEW, THE SMOKE PARTS TO REVEAL A BIG HOLE AND THE GHOST JUMPS OUT OF THE HOLE AND FIRES AN ECTO-BLAST AT GOKU. GOKU BLOCKS THE BLAST AND FIRES A BLAST AT THE GHOST. GOHAN FIRES A BLAST AT THE GHOST FROM BEHIND.
GOKU FLIES PAST THE SMOKE CLOUD. THE GHOST JUMPS OUT OF NOWHERE AND PUNCHES GOKU AWAY. THE GHOST LANDS TO THE GROUND. GOKU AND GOHAN LAND TO THE GROUND, TOO. THE GHOST GLOWS GREEN.
CUT TO TEAM PHANTOM.
SAM: THEY CAN'T BEAT IT.
TUCKER: IF THEY CAN'T BEAT IT, WHAT CHANCE DO WE HAVE? SHOULD WE GET OUT OF HERE?
DANNY: NO, THEY CAN DO IT. THEY HELPED US OUT IN OUR TIME OF NEED, SO WE NEED TO HELP THEM. [TURNS IN PHANTOM]
TEAM PHANTOM TAKE OFF.
GOKU: SO, YOU'RE READY TO JOIN IN ON ALL THE ACTION?
TUCKER: WHAT CAN WE DO?
SAM: GOKU, WE DON'T HAVE THE KIND OF FIGHTING SPIRIT OR SKILL THAT YOU TWO HAVE.
TUCKER: WE COULD BE KILLED.
GOKU: YOU MUST FOCUS. YOUR POWER CAN BLOSSOM IN FIGHT.
TUCKER: HUH?
GOKU: THERE'S MORE TO FIGHTING THAN PUNCHES OR KICKING. I'VE TRAINED YOU, BUT… ENERGY IS SOMETHING THAT BLOOMS EVEN MORE DURING AN EXTREME SITUATION IN A REAL FIGHT. BY CONFRONTING STRONG ENEMIES… YOU WILL… PROGRESSIVELY BECOME STRONGER. BEFORE I TRAINED YOU THREE, YOU DIDN'T STAND A CHANCE AGAINST THESE GHOSTS. UNDER MY TRAINING, YOUR POWER DID GROW ALONG WITH YOUR POWER. YOUR POWER RESPONDS TO A NEED, NOT A DESIRE.
GOHAN: IF I'M RIGHT, YOU THREE CAN BRING OUT YOUR INNER POWER RIGHT NOW. LOSING IS NOT AN OPTION.
WITH A FLASH OF LIGHT, AN AURA FORMS AROUND DANNY, TUCKER, AND SAM AND TRANSFORMS THEM TO THEIR GHOST FORMS.
TUCKER: WHAT'S THIS?
SAM: IS THIS MY POWER?
GOHAN: TIME TO DO THIS.
GOKU: TOGETHER.
TUCKER HITS IT AND IT IS SENT FLYING. TUCKER PUNCHES HIS, BUT IS PUNCHED BACK FROM IT. GOHAN ATTACKS IT, BUT THE GHOST BLASTS IT AWAY. SAM PUNCHES IT, TOO, AND BLASTS IT AWAY. FROM BEHIND, GOKU FIRES A BLAST AT IT.
IN FRONT OF IT, DANNY IS STANDING IN FRONT OF IT. THE GHOST CHAGRES AT HIM, BUT DANNY GOES INVISIBLE AND MISSES HIM. DANNY PUNCHES IT AWAY AND RESUME COLOR. DANNY CHARGES AT IT, BUT THE GHOST TELEPORTS AWAY IN A DIFFERENT SPOT AND PUNCHES DANNY AWAY.
SAM AND GOHAN CHARGE AT IT, BUT IS KICKED AWAY. TUCKER APPEARS IN FRONT OF THE GHOST. HE ATTACKS IT, BUT THE GHOST BLOCKED HIS ATTACKS.
THE GHOST STARTS THE ATTACK WITH A BLAST FROM ITS GHOST RAYS; TUCKER COUNTERS WITH HIS OWN. A SHOT OF THEM, AT OPPOSITES SIDES OF THE SCREEN. (THEIR BEAMS CANCEL OUT IN THE CENTER.)
THE REST OF THE OTHER HEROES APPEARED WITH TUCKER. THEY FIRE THEIR BEAM WITH TUCKER. ONE FINAL GROANING EFFORT SENDS THEIR BEAM SURGING INTO ITS FACE; THERE IS AN INCREDIBLE FLASH WHEN IT HITS, AND THE SMOKE CLEARS TO SHOW REMNANTS OF THE GHOST.
DANNY: THAT WAS HARDER THAN I THOUGHT.
SAM: I'M ALL PUTTERED OUT.
GOHAN: THAT'S WHAT WE'RE HERE FOR.
GOKU: TRAINING YOU TO BECOME POWERFUL. BUT THAT'S NOT THE ISSUE HERE, SOMEONE BEHIND THIS AND SEEMS TO HAVE KNOWLEDGE OF ALL THINGS GHOSTLY. SO YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO CONTINUE YOUR TRAINING WITH US. THERE WILL BIGGER THREATS THAT YOU'LL FACE IN THE FUTURE.
DANNY: THAT SOUNDS LIKE A LOT OF WORK.
TUCKER: SWEET! THIS IS JUST THAT COMIC BOOK I READ IN THAT SCI-FI AND COMIC BOOK CONVENTION IN SAN DIEGO.
SAM: WAS THAT BEFORE OR AFTER THOSE GHOST GEEKS TERRORIZED THE CONVENTION?
DANNY: IT LOOKS LIKE WE HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO CONTINUE TRAINING WITH THESE GUYS.
SAM: DANNY?
DANNY: THERE ARE GHOSTS EVEN MORE POWERFUL THAN THE ONES WERE USED TO.
GOKU: YOU'RE REAL TRAINING STARTS TOMORROW AT 8 O'CLOCK SHARP.
SCENE CHANGE: DASH'S LABORATORY.
DASH IS STANDING IN FRONT OF HIS PORTAL.
DARK FIGURE: WELL, THOSE TWO ARE MORE POWERFUL THAN I THOUGHT.
DASH: WHAT SHOULD I DO NOW?
DARK FIGURE: WAIT A BIT, AND WE'LL SEE HOW THEY'LL PROGRESS. I'LL SEND YOU MORE GIFTS OF MINE TO HELP YOU.
DASH: WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
DARK FIGURE: ECTOPLASM TO CREATE STRONGER GHOSTS. DO AS I SAY AND YOUR VENGEANCE SHALL BE SATISFIED.
CUT TO THE DARK FIGURE WITH GLOWING RED EYES.
DARK FIGURE: AS LONG AS YOU'RE UNDER MY CONTROL, I WILL ACCOMPLISH MY GOAL OF GETTING RID OF MY ENEMIES.
