Danny Phantom: Take Over

Chapter 1 Compromise

Danny groaned as he woke up and tried to move, but felt restrains and sighed, he was back in the containment chamber. Danielle must have put him there after their fight, he sighed again and then looked around. Danielle was at the foot of the chamber, by the control of panel. She smiled up at him and he frowned at her.

She turned to face Vlad and smiled, "All secured dad."

He smiled then sighed, "I still don't know how I am going to get him morph…Unless…unless you could overshadow for me my dear…force the transformation."

"But the last clone that tried that melted…What if it's too much?"

"Oh it won't be," Vlad reassured with a smile.

"But what if…"

"You exist to serve me! Just do it," Vlad thundered.

Danni got tears in her eyes and Danny's eyes widened. He knew if Danielle tried to overshadow him, she'd melt for sure. He had to think of something quick before Vlad forced her to overshadow him.

"Hey Vlad, are you afraid to overshadow me yourself," Danny called in a mocking tone.

"No dear boy, but that work is beneath me. Danielle here is here to serve me, and as such, she will overshadow you, and in doing so, force the transformation."

Danny looked down at Danielle, who now had tears filling her eyes and he sighed. He hadn't known Danielle long, but she had grown on him, and he had started to think of her as his cousin, so he didn't really want to see her become a pile of ecto goo.

"Why do you want a clone of me anyways? You can't just want it so you can have the perfect ghost son," Danny said hoping to distract Vlad a little longer.

"No Daniel, for the longest time I held hope that you would be my son, but after our last encounter (Read my last fan fic "The Wrong Uniform"), I understood that that can never happen, so I started making clones, but none of them are stable," he sighed glancing at Danni, then turned back to face Danny. "I wanted the original, but since he dose not want to comply, I had to resort to other resources," Vlad scowled at Danny then turned to Danielle, "Now Danielle, overshadow him!"

"No," Danny said quickly, eager to save Danni. I mean, what if I make a deal with you," Danny added quickly.

"Hummmm," Vlad said musing, "What did you have in mind," Vlad asked with a smirk.

Danny hesitated, but one glance at Danielle, and his mind was made up, no matter how miserable he would be, it would save her. 'I'll be your son and renounce my father, just leave Danielle out of this," Danny said with a sigh.

Vlad smirked, "Surely after that last scene between the two of us concerning the uniform and your idiot friend trapping me in that blasted thermos, you didn't believe it would be this easy to persuade me," he chuckled. "No, there are a few more things I will require from you."

This time it was Danny's turn to scowl, "What more could you want!"

"For starters, your morph DNA," at this Danny rolled his eyes and Vlad smirked, "and I want what was rightfully mine, but was taken from me by that blasted accident! I want your mother!"

Danny gasped and then frowned, "You really are a fruit loop if you think my mother will leave my father for you," Danny said annoyed.

"Oh, that's where you're wrong Daniel, she will if you overshadow her and force her to tell your father that she should have left him for me years ago," Vlad said with a smirk.

"No way! Danielle may be my family, but I will NOT control my mother and force her to things against her will!" he turned to face Danni and soften his gaze, "I'm really sorry, Danielle, but I can't control my mother and force her to do things she doesn't want to, I wouldn't be able to live with myself."

She looked at him sadly, "Yeah," she sighed.

"See, Danielle, he dose not want to give his morph DNA to me to save you," Vlad sneered, "If you want to be saved, then you have to overshadow him so we can get his morph DNA."

Danielle looked up at Danny and frowned, "No," she said firmly. "You won't save me, you just want to use me," she fired back.

Danny smirked as Vlad let out a frustrated snarl, but his eyes widened when he saw Vlad's hands glow pink, "I tried to play nice, but if you don't want to do as I ask, then you will have to fight me and I know you aren't strong enough for that," Vlad smirked as her hands glowed green and then a puddle of ecto goo formed at her feet and she let out a startled cry. She slowly lowered her hands and looked up at Danny then back at Vlad and lowered her head.

"That's a good little girl," Vlad said hugging her and flashing a triumphant smile at Danny who scowled at him. "Now make your father happy and go into Danny and force his transformation." Danielle hung her head low as she transformed into her ghost form and went into Danny.

Danny winced when she went into him, but he did not fight her, he would not fight her. Once she was in him, Danny winced again, though no one but him and her could see it since she was now in control, because he could feel her guilt and pain from doing this. From the outside Vlad was smirking, he knew Danny would not fight Danielle because he wanted her to live. He adjusted the knobs o his machine and then looked up at Danny, whose eyes were now green because Danielle was controlling him and Vlad smiled.

"Alright Danielle, I'm ready. Force the transformation," Vlad ordered.

Danny could feel himself begin to "go ghost," and unlike all the other times, he did not fight. He would not fight Danielle because he didn't want her to melt into ecto goo. When it was all finished, he felt he containment chamber power down and Danielle fell out of him and transformed back into her human form, too weak to hold her ghost form.

"Finally," Vlad called triumphantly, "now I can finish the good clone!" Vlad pressed another button and the containment unit across the room from Danny began to glow. Then, when it powered down, Danny's exact clone stepped out and gave an evil smirk. Danny scowled at them both and Vlad chuckled.

"Looks like you got what you wanted Vlad," Danny said bitterly, "Now fix Danielle!"

"No, I don't think I'm going to," Vlad said with a smirk. "I think I'll scrap her and the original, now that I don't need either," he chuckled.

"No! Look Vlad, I don't care what you do to me, but please save Danni! We had a deal!"

"Yes we did, are you ready to call home and then get your mother to leave your father for me or should I start dissecting Danielle," Vlad asked with an evil smirk.

"No Danny, it's not worth it," Danielle yelled as Danny's "good" clone grabbed her and locked her down to an examination table. She struggled to free herself, but as she did, she began to melt.

"No Danielle, don't struggle, you'll melt!" At this she stopped struggling and the goo reattached to her, but let her sweating. "I'll find a way to save you Danielle," Danny called fighting his own restraints.

Vlad chuckled, "Are you ready to accept our deal, my boy, or should we start to dissect Danielle," he asked with a smirk.

"No, don't! I'll call my father, just don't kill Danielle! Please," Danny said frantically.

"And you'll control your mother," Vlad added with a smirk.

Danny closed his eyes to ward off the tears. With all the power he had, he couldn't save Danielle without doing what Clad asked and it made him sick. Finally he took a deep breath and answered Vlad.

"Find," Danny spat, "but Jazz gets to stay with dad, and I still get to go to my school," Danny said firmly.

"Very well, Jasmine can stay with your father, though I don't know why anyone would want to stay with that big idiot, and of course you'd still go to your same school. I am the mayor of Amity Park, and as such, my son should go to the school there."

Danny winced at the word son, but he knew if he was going to save Danni, he'd have to get use to it. "Fine, I'll make the call now, but after I call, you have to fix Danielle!"

"I will fix Danielle when you finish your jobs, which means when you get back here with your mother," Vlad said with a smirk.

"That's not fair," Danny argued! "She's really weak and could melt any time!"

"Then I suggest your hurry," Vlad said with an evil smirk, which Danny returned with a scowl that made Vlad laugh as he handed Danny the phone.
