Flame War, Chapter 1

A Danny Phantom fanfiction by Dustin M. Dixon

Hey all, Dustin here with the disclaimer! I own no one in this story. All characters are the intellectual property of Butch Hartman. I am not making money off of this, so please, no lawsuits. With that said, let's get on with episode 2: Flame War!

Fade in. Amity Park's fairgrounds. Danny and Sam were taking in the sights and sounds of the nearby rollercoaster.

"You know, I'm all for a good crash as much as the next guy, but…" Danny started.

"But it's freaking GOTHAROUSEL!" Sam chimed in giddily. "The most awesome rollercoaster… OF PAIN! EVER!"

"Well, nice to see you're enjoying yourself." Danny smirked. "But I can't help but feel like we're missing something! It's just not the same without Tucker."

"Yeah, well… you win some you lose some. C'mon! I got us tickets!" Sam nearly shouted. "Last one on's a mega-onyx rotten egg!"

"Is it always mega-onyx and funky black with you goths?" Danny shrugged.

"Ignoring that, let's go!" Sam grabbed Danny by the arm, and seconds later they were being locked in to the front seat of the Gotharousel. Danny looked down at the harnesses keeping him and Sam from being flung violently from the rollercoaster.

"I'm not entirely comfortable with the level of safety provided by these seat belts." Danny admitted.

"Oh man up Nancy, you have ghost powers!" Sam rolled her eyes. A couple of minutes later, the rollercoaster began its run, and in the midst of screaming his head off, Danny turned toward Sam.

"Okay, I WILL admit, this is kind of cool. So why isn't Tucker here with us, screaming his head off along with me?"

"Well, he said he had a 'prior engagement'." Sam used her fingers to emulate quotation marks. "He described it as 'really freaking awesome'!

"What could be more awesome than this?!" Danny shouted.

"Dear fellow online geek community…" Tucker spoke aloud as he typed, sitting at his desk in front of his PC, the lights in the room off aside from the glow coming from his monitor. "The other day, I went on a date with my best friend Danny's totally fine older sister Jazz. Not only did we have a good time, but she let me take her picture as proof that I'm not making ANY of this up!" He clicked the "Send" button, and not even a minute later after his message appeared, he saw a comment appear in the topic. "Pics or it didn't happen…?" he read in disbelief. "Dude, I'm Tucker Foley! That's TF! As in too! FINE!" he shouted. "You want your pic? Oh, you'll get it!" He grabbed the loosely-dangling USB cord and connected it to his PDA. "Here's your pic, DoubtingThomas!" he scrolled through his gallery of pictures, but started to panic as he realized that the image he had taken was not among the other images. "Wait… where is it…?! WHERE IS IT?!" Tucker began to sweat. Suddenly, he heard a ping, as he glanced upon the screen in horror. A new user by the name of "EmberRox" had posted his very picture, only edited heavily. Now there was a black pair of circular eyeglasses and a fake, twirly mustache painted onto Jazz's face. "No…" Tucker gasped out, as he looked on, touching the screen, expecting this to be a nightmare that he was about to wake up from. He pinched himself, and as soon as he realized he was wide awake, the whole Foley household resounded with his loud wail.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-!"

Meanwhile, in a local cyber café, a familiar young woman sat, her blue flaming hair glowing extra brightly as she high-fived the green-skinned, mullet-sporting ghost next to her.

"That was freakin' awesome!" she laughed.

"Exactly. And just watch! That young nerd will be scouring the internet for whoever took his beloved image! And when the time is right, I, Technus, will take over Amity Park!" A pause, as Ember glared up at him. "I mean we! We will take over Amity Park!"

"That dipstick doesn't know what's about to hit him!" The two ghost partners in crime laughed evilly…
