Episode 2 "Ghost Hunter vs Prey"

Flying through the air over a forest was Skulker holding the now caged Danny Phantom. After facing off above Caspar High he successfully captured Danny Phantom and is now off to his Employer. 'Eh, that was too easy. I think that the boy might be losing his touch.' Skulker thought as he flew over a corn farm out in the suburbs.

Feeling the cage that was in his hand starting the fidget around, Skulker looked down in curiosity to see the boy starting to move. Now gaining his consciousness, Danny slowly fluttered his eyes open wanting to keep the bright sun out of his eyes. Looking around, he saw that he wasn't in Amity anymore, but above some farm. This caused him great stress because Amity Park was a city that wasn't near any kind of farm land. 'What, where am I- Ugh!' Trying to remember the past events, a piercing headache appeared in its place. Lifting his hand to his head to stop it, Danny began to think again. 'Man this killing me! How the heck did this even happen?' Danny exclaimed in his thoughts. During that time, Danny felt himself moving through the, so to figure out what exactly was happening, he raised his head, only to see Skulker with a nasty grin as everything he tried to remember hit him like a freight train which caused the pain already inside his head to increase.

"Oh, I see you're already awake, child." Skulker said in a slick tone.

"Where are you taking me! And let me out of this cage!" Danny yelled in anger. Struggling to get out of his confinement, he transformed back into Danny Phantom and started to attack the glowing bars with punches and kicks only to have none of that work. Then, using an ectoblast, Danny shot it out but to no avail as well.

"Ha, keep on struggling ghost child, you can't get out this is reinforced ectoplasmic walls! Try as you might, but you won't succeed in any rational way." Skulker stated gleefully. 'Foolish boy, he thinks he can get out this my best cage! None of my other prey has gotten out of this!' Skulker thought.

"Yeah, we'll see about that!" Danny exclaimed with a frown, "God, this has to be my stupidest most dangerous plan yet! I don't think I'll get out of this unscathed." He whispered to himself. Then, as he started to charge his energy all over his body, a neon green outlined it as it started to glow brighter.

This got the attention of Skulker as he said, "Huh, what are you doing boy? Hey stopped it!" He yelled anxiously. Ignoring Skulkers cries of defiance, Danny continued building up energy before reaching his limit and yells as he let out a strong but concentrated pulse of ecto energy, destroying the cage but also created a blinding white flash.

Wrestling with the currents of the wind after the explosion, Skulker cover his eyes to see through the blinding light. After the light dimmed down, Skulker uncovered his eyes and lifted his head up to see a surprising sight: the cage was completely destroyed with Danny Phantom flying above the ground over it, totally bruised and battered up with blood covering his left eye.

"W-what happened!?" Skulker screamed out pissed.

"What was that," Danny coughed stopping mid-sentence before continuing, "About me not getting out...Skulker." Danny Phantom said with a weary but smug tone.

"That's impossible, you shouldn't be able to get out!" Skulker yelled. "That's supposed to be able to trap any ghost!"

"Well, that just goes to show you that I'm stronger than your average ghost, huh, Skulker. Hehe, the more you know..." Danny exclaimed feeling proud of himself but that all went away after a sharp pain invaded the side of his rib cage .'I knew this would happen but I didn't think blowing myself up inside an enclosed area would hurt so much. Wait, now that I say it does sound stupid of me to think otherwise.'

Examining his enemies state Skulker grinned, "It seems that destroying the cage was useless if you're not going to escape from me."

"That's what you think- I may not look it but I'm more than able to kick your butt, Skulker!" Danny yelled wiping the blood from his face.

"Well, good thing I brought an extra. And I will make sure you stay knocked out." Skulker said as he knew he was going to have an easy time recapturing the ghost because of his battered state.

"Only if you can beat me first. I have to admit your first attempt to capture me was a bit surprising but now I'm ready for your attacks. Bring it on!" Danny Phantom screamed with enthusiasm.

"You arrogant little ghost boy, I'll show you!" Skulker said irritated. Raising his arms up, multiple missiles and lasers shot out at Danny who narrowly escaped them while blasting a few he couldn't escape from. Rushing towards Skulker, Danny Phantom began punching and kicking Skulker until he grabbed one of Danny's feet and swung him around before roughly throwing him to the ground at high speeds. Thinking fast, Danny turned intangible, passing through the ground to avoid impact. Flying back out, he goes to unsuspecting Skulker and delivers a hard right uppercut to the jaw sending him back a few feet in the air.

Panting hard Danny Phantom puts both of his hands in front of himself charging a blue substance, growing until it's the size of his torso. 'I have to end it with this one blow or else I'm finished.' Danny thought tiredly. After escaping from the cage he has been extremely tired, and the fatigue has finally caught up with him. Skulker, finally recovering from the right hook from Danny Phantom, looked up toward his opponent and sees something blue until Danny yelled out and unleashed a wide powerful blast. Trying to escape the radius, Skulker goes up but was too slow as the beam was already in front of him. Raising both arms up, he tried to soften the impact but to no avail as he was blown back completely frozen in hard solid ice.

Looking down at frozen the Skulker, Danny smiled at his victory but abruptly stopped as he clenched his arm to lower the stinging pain that appeared, "I need to find a city hospital fast or I think I might die from these injuries." Danny said aloud. Flying to a random direction, he took off thinking. 'Man, that sounds bad. I don't wanna die. If I do, Sam and Jazz will pull me from the Ghost zone themselves and blast me with one of dad's anti-ghost thing. Gah. that sounds horrible.'

So as Danny Phantom flew away, Skulker's suit can be seen turning a bright red against the cool blue color of the ice. Seconds passed and cracks started to form in various places of the ice as Skulker was heating his suit of armor to melt the thick ice. Finally breaking free, he stood up tall and looked around, wiping the remaining ice shards from his arms and chest. "That damn ghost boy, he got away. Now I have to report bad news to my client." Skulker said with an unpleasant tone.
