Chapter 2

The Ghost Master

At that moment, Danny Fenton was currently in the backyard of his house training his Ghost Pokémon. He raised all of them himself. Communicating with them came naturally to him since he himself is the son of two ghost-hunters. Well, his father hunted ghosts; his mother just wanted to study Ghost Pokémon. She agreed that Danny could keep his Pokémon as long as she could study their behavior and diets.

His normal icy blue eyes flashed neon green as he said, "Lilith! Will O' Wisp!"

Lilith, a Misdreavous, unleashed several tongues of blue fire into the air.

"Now, Psychic attack!"

Lilith's eyes as well as the tongues of fire started to glow blue. The fire then started rotating and joining together to make a shape. Lilith's eyes then started to flicker and lost concentration. Her eyes stopped glowing and the tongues of fire disappeared.

Lilith frowned in disappointment. "Miss…" The little Ghost Pokémon then landed on the ground and sulked.

Danny's eyes faded back to blue as he sighed. He knelt down to the ghost's level and petted it. "Don't worry. You'll get it down eventually."

Lilith looked up. "Dreavous. Misdreavous."

"I want you to master the Flaming Heart before the tournament too but we have to keep practicing if we want to impress Sam by then," said Danny.

Danny has had a big crush on Sam for years. Now that the Founder's Day Festival was around the corner, Danny thought that would be a perfect opportunity to confess his feelings to Sam and ask her out. He wanted to give Lilith to Sam as a way to show her how he felt about her. He knew that Sam wanted to enter Pokémon Contests to show off her Pokémon and her Gothic ways. He thought using Psychic to manipulate a bunch of Will O' Wisps to form a heart would be an excellent combination for a contest. Lilith just recently taught and mastered the move Psychic and Danny saw this as a perfect opportunity. The two have been practicing for weeks and they still haven't gotten it down yet.

"GENGAR!" Danny was suddenly tackled by the Ghost Pokémon, Gengar. The purple ghost started licking Danny's face affectionately.

"Cut it out, Spooky! If you keep this up you're gonna…" Suddenly, Danny couldn't move. "…paralyze me." Gengar, or Spooky, started laughing hysterically.

Danny sighed. "Mom! Spooky did it again!"

A woman in an aqua blue jumpsuit came outside holding a yellow spray bottle. "Spooky! How many times do we have to tell you? No using Lick attack on Danny!"

"Gengar…" Spooky apologized.

Maddie Fenton got down on her knees and started spraying her son. "Honestly! You'd think after ten years, he'd know by now."

Sitting up and checking his limbs for movement, Danny said to his mom, "Spooky's a Ghost Pokémon, Mom. You said so yourself, it's in his nature."

"You've had him since you were seven and he still does that to you. I was hoping he'd just forget that move," said Maddie.

Danny met Gengar as a Gastly when he was seven years old. He was exploring his attic when he found the Ghost Pokémon. At first Danny was afraid of it and it wouldn't leave him alone. One day when a kid was bullying Danny at the park, Gastly appeared and scared the mean kid away. The then-seven-year-old boy named him Spooky and the two have been friends ever since. Now Danny is the proud owner of a Gengar, a Froslass, a Shuppet, a Sableye, a Dusclops, and a Drifblim.

"Maddie! We've got company!" called her husband Jack.

"Coming!" Maddie called back.

Danny stood up and called his Pokémon back into their Pokeballs. He then turned to Lilith. "Lilith, hide!"

"Miss!" Lilith nodded and faded away.

Our heroes followed the Goth and the techno-geek to a strange brownstone house with what appeared to be a UFO on the roof.

"Uh, are you sure we're at the right house?" asked Brock nervously.

"We've been Danny's best friends for years," said Tucker. "We've been coming to this house since grade school."

"Just to warn you, his family is a little…strange," said Sam. "Everything that's strange there is considered normal for them."

"What do you mean by strange?" asked Dawn.

"You'll know it when you see it," Sam said blankly.

She rang the doorbell and waited. A large man in an orange jumpsuit opened the door. His size intimidated the traveling trainers.

"Hey, Mr. Fenton," Tucker said to the man. "Is Danny home?"

"He's in the backyard training," Jack answered. He eyed the three visitors. "Are these guys here to challenge him?"

"Just me, sir," Ash piped up.

"Pika, Pika," Pikachu added.

The large man smiled. "Well, come on in! While you wait inside, I can blather on about ghosts!"

"Piplup," squeaked Piplup.

"No need to worry, Piplup," Dawn assured her Pokémon. "I'm sure Mr. Fenton meant Ghost Pokémon." The three of them followed Sam and Tucker into the house. The interior seemed normal. Nothing strange about that.

"Maddie! We've got company!" Jack called.

"Coming!" a woman called back.

Moments later a woman in an aqua blue jumpsuit entered the room followed by a boy with raven-black hair and icy blue eyes.

"Everyone this is my wife, Maddie, and our son, Danny," said Jack. "And I'm Jack Fenton!"

"I'm Ash and this is my best friend Pikachu."

"Pikachu!"

"I'm Dawn and this is Piplup."

"Piplup!"

"How you doing? I'm Brock."

Danny waved to them. "Nice to meet you. I'm guessing you've already met Tucker and Sam?"

"Yeah, they helped us get here," said Ash.

"Although Brock did try to flirt with me," Sam added.

Danny panicked. "What!"

"No need to worry about Brock," said Dawn. "He always flirts with girls. His Croagunk keeps him in line so he doesn't get far."

Danny then relaxed. "Whew! Thank goodness."

Dawn immediately sensed something between Danny and Sam but kept it to herself.

Ash decided to get right to the point. "I heard that you're quite a Pokémon trainer."

Danny rubbed the back of his neck. "I wouldn't say I'm that good," he said modestly.

"Oh, stop it, sweetie," Maddie said to her son. "You're the best Ghost trainer in Amity Park."

Danny blushed in embarrassment. "Mom! Not in front of my friends."

Tucker smirked. "Ash here wants to challenge you to a match…sweetie," he said teasingly. Danny glowered at him. Sam did her best to hide her giggling.

"Did I hear someone wanting to challenge my little brother?" a voice asked.

Everyone turned and saw a girl with long red hair come down the stairs. Brock immediately approached her. "May I ask what your name is? It must be a beautiful name for such a beautiful girl – GAH!" Croagunk jabbed Brock's side and dragged him away.

"Don't mind Brock. He does that a lot," said Ash.

"Pi-ka," Pikachu nodded.

"Guys, this is my sister, Jazz," said Danny. "Jazz, this is Ash and Dawn and that guy Croagunk dragged away was Brock."

"Nice to meet you," said Jazz. "So which one of you wanted to challenge my little brother?"

"That would be me!" Ash answered enthusiastically. "I'm training to get my last Gym Badge so I can enter the Sinnoh League."

"You're entering the Sinnoh League? Awesome!" Danny exclaimed. "I accept your challenge!"

"Great! Where should we battle?"

"How about the park?" Sam suggested. "The backyard is too small."

"Perfect," said Jazz. "Shall we get going?"

As the group started toward the door, Danny pulled his mother aside. "Mom, can you keep an eye on Lilith while I'm gone?" Danny asked.

"Of course, Danny," said Maddie. "Is she hiding in your room again?"

"She should be under my bed."

"Dude! Let's get the show on the road!" said Tucker.

"Good luck, sweetie!" Maddie called as the kids left the house. "Jack, why don't you go with them and film it? You know that Misdreavous won't come out if you're nearby."

Jack smiled. "Hey! That's a good idea! It will give something to show to your sister when she comes to visit!" He pulled out a video camera and left the house to catch up with the kids.

Hellbreaker: I chose Sinnoh because I haven't played B&W yet so I'm not familiar with the Unova Region. And because I don't watch the show as often as I used to. Not to mention, the show isn't as good without Brock's obnoxious flirting!

Fluehatraya: I agree, it's not a DP fic without Danny featuring some ghostly characteristics so I included his glowing eyes and his rapid recovery rate.

I named Danny's Gengar Spooky because Danny was supposed to have an owl named Spooky. And since there are no Ghost Pokemon that look like owls, Gengar got the name instead.
