The Ghostly Body Snatchers

Chapter 1: The Dark Plot

As the Ghost Zone's greatest hunter-Skulcker was about to grab a priceless vase from the counter, two guards entered the room.

"You there stop!" shouted the first guard as he pointed at Skulcker.

"Stop yourself!" replied Skulcker as he took out his weapon and blasted a strange goo sticking the two guards to the wall.

"The only place you are going to stick is in jail!" shouted Robin as Skulcker turned around.

Skulcker was surprised to see all five Titans, Cyborg, Robin, Beast Boy, Starfire and Raven.

"You just made a big mistake for sneaking up on me like that" said Skulcker as he prepared his weapon.

"Then bring it on already" said Cyborg as he armed his laser cannon.

"Gladly!" shouted Skulcker as he charged against the Titans.

Cyborg fired the first shot from his laser cannon. All the Titans thought it was a direct hit, until Skulcker appeared from the smoke alive and well.

"How did you manage to dodge a direct hit?" asked Cyborg.

"Trade secret" replied Skulcker.

Skulcker rams his fist right into Cyborg's face sending him flying across the room, and knocking him down to the ground.

"Alright, it's my turn" said Beast Boy as he turned into a tyrannosaurus.

Beast Boy roared right in front of Skulcker's face. He started to charge at Skulcker, but Skulcker suddenly became invisible to Beast Boy as Beast Boy started to look around the room. Before Beast Boy knew what was going on, Skulcker was right behind him who grabbed his tail and started to swing him around and around until he released Beast Boy and he hits the wall, making part of the wall fall down.

"Your bad ways end now" said Starfire as she charged up her star bolts.

"Bring it on" said Skulcker.

Starfire fired her star bolts at Skulcker, but like Beast Boy, he became invisible as the star bolts merely hit the floor. Starfire then let out a green sphere around the area just in case to stop Skulcker. Even that wasn't enough as Skulcker stood where he is. He flew up in the air and grabbed Starfire's leg and throws her at Cyborg as he was trying to recover from the last attack. Starfire hits Cyborg and knocking themselves unconscious.

"Alright, now it's my turn" said Robin as he took out his rod.

Robin raced right toward Skulcker and started to try to hit Skulcker. Skulcker dodged the attacks and grabbed Robin's rod. He then took it away from Robin and broke the rod in half with his hands. After that, he picked up Robin and threw him to the wall, knocking him unconscious.

"Alright you are getting on my nerves" said Raven.

Raven used her powers to move two large stones from the wall that was destroyed. She pushed them against each other trying to smash Skulcker. Skulcker had other plans instead. Raven didn't notice that Skulcker was right behind her. He then took out the goo gun which was the same one he used on the guards.

"Surprise to see me?" asked Skulcker as Raven was astonished to find him behind her back.

Before Raven could use her powers to defend herself, Skulcker fired the goo gun, trapping Raven on the wall. Raven tried to struggle to free herself, but the goo was too strong.

"You so-called superheroes are pathetic" said Skulcker as he was about to leave, "I have more trouble with the ghost boy than with you five."

As Skulcker finally left the scene, the head security guard came in to help the Titans up. Two of his men had trouble in getting Raven free from the strange goo that trapped her on the wall.

"Could you please get the number of the bus that hit me?" asked Cyborg as a guard was helping him up.

"What the heck just happen here?" asked the head security guard to Robin as Robin was finally getting up on his own.

"I don't know" replied Robin, "we hit everything we had at him. How did he break in the first place?"

"We don't know" replied the head security guard, "he just appeared out of nowhere like he was some type of a ghost or something like that."

"You mean we got our butts kicked by a ghost?" asked Beast Boy as he was regaining consciousness.

"You might want to hire a medium to search where this ghost villain might be heading next" said the head security guard.

"Actually we already have someone who sort of like that" said Robin.

"I can track where he might be headed next" said Raven as she finally was pulled from the goo, "but first I will need to take a shower before we find this creep."

"Why was that ghost villain after that vase?" asked Starfire.

"Don't know" replied the head security guard, "but we have been researching where another one of these strange vases might be located."

"Can you tell us where the other one is located at?" asked Robin.

"Certainly" replied the head security guard, "the twin of that vase is currently being displayed at the Amity Park museum."

"Dude, where's Amity Park?" asked Beast Boy.

"Does that mean we get to go on a road trip?" asked Cyborg.

"Certainly" replied Robin, "if it means in stopping that villain."

"Not until I take a shower" said Raven as she was still covered in goo.

Meanwhile in a dark ally in Amity Park, Skulcker was transmitting a message to Vlad Plasmius.

"Everything is going according to your plan" said Skulcker, "the first phase of your plan is finished."

"Yes" said Vlad, "controlling the Teen Titans shall be very useful to defeat Danny Phantom. Just make sure you lead them to my mansion when they get to Amity Park. It would make Danny Phantom look like the ultimate villain for the Titans."

"Will do" said Skulcker as he turned off his transmitter.
