Hello fellow Authors and readers of Fanfiction, okay first of all let me get this out of the way, for the next two weeks I have stuying for fianl exams and the exams, also I will also remind you all that as an author I will do my best to ge tnew chapters of Daughter of a Phantom out when I can, they will be done when they are done, you can't rush these things otherwise you will get writers block. Now this is a new story I felt I would do, a recent episode of Transformers Prime reminded me of an old story idea of mine and I really want to tell it, so this was also slightly inspired by that episode of Transformers Prime, so if you have seen it then you know why there are simularites, also I wanted to get into this genre a little more nad write a story I wanted to read same with Daughter of a Phantom, there are stories like this out there but not the ones I'm looking for, they are either copies of each other or the stray to far from the show and should be AU, now I'm not condeming that, authors are free to write what they want, however I'm writing this because this is what I'm looking, for, it won't be long, maybe 12 chapters, but I hope you enjoy.

Chapter I: The Nightmare Begins

It was just another day in Amity Park, it was almost summer; students were eagerly counting down the remaining days of school, while also studying for their final exams. The birds were signing their songs, flowers were blooming and the sun was shining down on the town, but not everything is what it seemed. For every town has secrets, Amity Park is no different, it's plagued by ghosts, there is at least one attack a day, however today, something would happen, something that would even make the ghosts weary. For everything was not alright in this town at the moment, in fact if you were anywhere near a certain mansion, you would hear the most ungodly screams of agony.

Vlad was staring at the monitor, reading the data of his latest experiment, ignoring the pained screams of his specimen behind him. Vlad had read over the results again and again, he just didn't understand, what was going wrong. He had repeated the experiment ten times now, changed it each time and still he was getting nothing. He looked at a vial that lay on the table next to him; he picked it up and looked at the glowing green liquid inside. There was another loud bellow from his specimen, Vlad had almost had it.

"Will you shut up you deformed freak, I'm trying to think."

"Please…make…it…stop." The thing bellowed.

"I will as soon as I get the proper results."

"Trouble with your experiments Plasmius?"

Vlad turned around to see a familiar figure walk inside his lab, the lighting was reflecting off his metallic hide.

"Skulker, I take it you've gotten what I've asked for?"

"Indeed, here is the sample you were asking for." said Skulker handing Vlad a second vial.

"Excellent, you've done well."

"Might I also suggest you keep you lab rat quiet, I could hear him yelling from above ground, the humans might get suspicious if they hear pained screams coming from the mansion of their mayor."

"Hopefully I won't need him for much longer; I think I've got the right mixture this time."

Skulker watched as Vlad started to poor ingredients into a chemical mixture, he then turned to look at the specimen that was strapped to a lab table. Bindings around its hands and feet, it was jerking around trying to get out. Yet Skulker couldn't help but think the specimen looked familiar, it was small, scrawny and had scars and bruises all over it, and it was so skinny and unhealthy that it looked like a skeleton with skin covering it. It had tattered clothes covering it and its eyes were blazing green, it had white hair which turned black at the temples, it spoke out again, and Skulker realized he had seen this before.

"Help…me…free…me"

"What have you done to the whelp here?"

"That's not Daniel, Skulker I would never experiment on Daniel, this was a failed attempt at cloning him again, I don't waste my resources and I was in need of a Guinea Pig for my latest experiment."

"He looks like he's in so much pain; might I ask what you have been doing to him?"

"I'm trying to come up with a little something I call an Ecto-Booster, a serum that is designed to boost one's ectoplasm levels for a period of time, this way my attacks will be more powerful and will take as little power and energy as possible, however I've run into a little snag, it seems to be doing the opposite effect, instead of boosting Ectoplasm, it seems to be draining it instead, draining it much faster than the body can replenish, that's why I asked you to bring me this sample of Anti-Ectoplasm." Vlad says holding up the vial Skulker brought him, which was glowing purple.

"But how is that supposed to help, Anti-Ectoplasm dose the opposite of normal Ectoplasm?"

Vlad poured a little bit of the vial into the mixture, turning the green liquid into a sinister shade of violet, he then put the half empty vial down on the table next to the mixture and other vials of chemicals; and walked over to the monitor to read some results.

"True Skulker, Anti-Ectoplasm dose do the opposite of normal Ectoplasm, however I believe I can change that, my serum was supposed to boost the powers of Ectoplasm, but instead drains it, so If I take my serum in mix it with the Anti-Ectoplasm, I can get one of two things, I can get the opposite effect and have the Anti-Ectoplasm boosting Ectoplasm levels, or it will completely kill the specimen, I accept which either one because then I could use the serum if it ever actually comes to having to kill Daniel. Now I think it's ready do me a favor and pour the rest of the Anti-Ectoplasm into the mixture while I make sure our specimen is ready for another dose."

Skulker did as Vlad said he walked over to the mixture and reached for the vial of Anti-Ectoplasm, however he was distracted by a violent and agonizing scream. He looked over to see the failed clone of Phantom start to jerk around even more, Skulker felt around for the vial, he felt glass and grabbed it, pouring it into the mixture. Vlad then walked towards him with a syringe in his hand, he tipped the top of the needle into the liquid and extracted the serum. Skulker was interested to say the least, imagine a serum that would boost his powers, maybe then he could finally kill the whelp and lay his pelt beside his bed.

"Now hold, still this won't hurt a bit." Vlad said as he jabbed the syringe into the specimen's arm.

Vlad injected the purple serum into the clone's body; he then stepped back and waited for the results. To anyone else this would have been almost unbearable to watch. The clone started to jerk around even more violently and his screams were loader than ever, it looked like he was having a violent seizure, this went on for minutes before he became still. Vlad walked over to the monitor to read the results, the specimen was dead.

"Oh well, at least I have a serum that can kill ghosts, back to the drawing board."

Vlad walked over to the dead body of the clone, its skin had turned pale and its eyes were dull, no longer glowing with the fierce light that burns in Danny's eyes. Vlad bent down and started to undo the first strap on the table, he had to ditch the body. The next thing he knew he was flying across the room, he slammed into a wall and felt to the ground. Vlad recovered and looked up to see the specimen jerking around even more breaking free of its restraints and falling to the ground. Vlad got back up and cautiously moved towards the specimen.

"What the hell is going on, you're supposed to be dead?" Vlad asked, but all he got was a terrifying response.

"Need…..Ectoplasm!"

The specimen then shot it's head up and roared at Vlad and Skulker, it's eyes were now glowing a fierce purple, the same as the Anti-Ectoplasm and its mouth was open to reveal a mouth full of sharp fangs, it got up and started to walk towards Vlad. Before Vlad knew anything the creature was right on top of him. Vlad was holding the creatures head, using all his power and strength to keep the creature away, it seemed to be lunging for his neck, and it kept muttering Ectoplasm. Skulker quickly leapt into action and fired a ghost ray at the creature, sending it flying off Vlad and into a wall.

"Do you really think that thing was trying to…?"

"Suck out my Ectoplasm, it looked that way, and we need to get out of here."

Before the creature could get back up, both of them were out of the lab and in the mansion, catching their breath.

"What happened, since when do dead ghosts, or heck half ghosts come back from the dead?"

"His eyes were glowing purple, just like the Anti-Ectoplasm, maybe that had something to do with it."

"You mean this stuff?" Skulker said showing him the vial he poured into the mixture.

"Skulker, you idiot that's not the Anti-Ectoplasm vial, give me that."

Vlad snatched the vial out of Skulker's hands, it was the exact same as the vial Skulker gave him, however its contents were not, Vlad looked at the label, his eyes widened with dread as he read it; Desmodus rotundus genetic code. Skulker had poured in the genetic code of a vampire bat. Suddenly a hologram of his love, Maddie Fenton formed in front of him.

"Excuse me my love, but the specimen has escaped and is now heading towards the city."

Dun...Dun...Dun, Vlad and Skulker what have you done, so this thing is basiclly a zombie vampire, it's a normal vombie, however instead of devouring it's victims it sucks out their Ectoplasm like a vampire, I'm combining the two, no let's see who do we know that has Ectoplasm...I'll try to have the second chapter out tomorrow or in the next two days, I really needed something else to write about, so anyways I hope you have enjoyed this little inroduction and hope you stick around through the rest of it, please favorite/follow if you like it and please review, let me know what you think.
