Hey, everyone! It's been soooo long! I'm sorry for the long delay. I've just been busy with work over the past month. But I have good news.
I'm finally updating
I've also come out as a much experienced writer than I was before (not that I wasn't though. I just mean I've taken story writing to a higher level).
I won't delay any further. However I do feel that I should warn you that this chapter takes a dark tone. There is some comedic relief that pops in once in a while.
Anyway…
ON TO THE CHAPTER!
Chapter 2: Genocide lives!
Amity Park lay devastated unlike any comparison to its former self. Fortunately, its inhabitants were taken away before the destruction that befell the town could happen to them too. However, that left Danny Phantom, world known hero/Avenger, to fight against the super powered alien and ghost fusion known as Genocide. The creature was huge and stood terrifying, having already destroyed the entire town with a single blast.
"This ain't going to be easy huh." Danny said. His eyes were on the creature as it heaved heavily, glaring its red eyes at him.
The ghost teen was not alone with the creature though. While he knew Timmy as his dad's cousin's son, even he would admit that he was curious about the boy. However, the mystery surrounding the boy was beyond the person standing next to him.
Danielle Phantom or Dani for short was Danny's cousin. But now, the girl was about his age, still wearing the same DP hazmat suit and had her hair tied in a long pony tail. Danny was baffled by the sight of his cousin, from her look and her presence with him. Before he could think about asking any question, the creature known as Genocide roared.
"It's attacking!" Dani shouted.
True to what she said, the creature attacked. It came by a giant leap, both arms raised to crush the heroes. Its speed was remarkable, but Dani forced it back with a ghostly wail. The impact of it hit Genocide, causing it to move back on its feet.
Unfortunately, the wail didn't seem to stop the creature. Danny was amazed at the power of his older cousin, but had to cut it very short as he flew directly at the creature immediately. He rammed right to it the creature and sent it crashing into a pile of rubble, causing it to hit something explosive that then caused the entire place to explode.
The explosion could be seen clearly huge up close by Timmy and his fairies. Their eyes were wide at this, especially as Danny flew back to them with no harm.
"You guys, okay?" He asked.
"Yeah, I am." Timmy answered.
"Good. But I was also talking about them." Danny said back. He pointed at Timmy's purple chain and pink and green wristbands. "I know you got secrets, and you can tell me all about them later, but right now you guys got to get out of here."
"No way!" Timmy refused. An excited grin was on his face as he continued. "I just saw you toss a monster! It was so cool!"
Usually, Danny would be used to his fans. However, he couldn't help but be straight at the boy. "Look, this isn't the time! This monster just destroyed the entire town easily! I can't protect you!"
"You don't have to." Timmy replied.
"Oh, and why is that?" Danny asked, clearly annoyed.
The answer would've come to him at this point. However, Dani interrupted as she pointed to the building. "Now's not the time! Look!"
Timmy and Danny did as told, with their eyes growing wide immediately after. There, they saw Genocide covered with surging green energy all over it. The creature let out a massive growl as its body began to change drastically, becoming something very dangerous.
With another loud roar, the creature unleashed the surge of green energy to its surroundings. The size of it covered everywhere while approaching the same direction Danny, Dani and Timmy were in. The younger boy's stood in fear and covered his face. "Okay, that's not good." He said.
If Danny had the chance to respond, he would do it with clear annoyance. But he and Dani brought their hands forward and created a large energy dome to protect them. They did it just in time, as the energy came right at them and hit the ecto energy dome hard. Its force was a strain on the two, who both groaned hard as they held up the shield with as much strength as they could. Fortunately, the energy died down, but not without a cause afterwards.
The attack from Genocide caused devastation at anywhere around it. There, the group could see flames from explosive things that got hit. Standing with flames around it, Genocide emerged entirely from some before them in a different look. Its body size changed from fifteen feet to twenty feet, thereby towering terrifyingly at them. The horns on its shoulders were gone, now appearing under its chin and head, while spikes could be seen lined on his wrists. The stomach of the creature now had a mouth that opened and then closed, looking back to be normal.
Danny and Timmy weren't sure to make more on this. However, Dani didn't seem to think on it. Instead, she clutched her fists tightly and made a huge jump at the creature with a battle cry. The creature did the same, opening its hands to reveal its massive claws.
Seeing the two engage at each other snapped Danny out of his mind. He instantly flew at Genocide, leaving Timmy and his fairies on their own. At the meantime, Dani flew at Genocide's leg and tried to punch hard on with her now glowing ecto fist. Unfortunately, the creature removed the leg before noticing a black and white blur fly pass him.
Not surprisingly, the blur turned out to be none other than Danny Phantom. The hero had gained the creature's attention, therefore allowing Dani to release her ghostly wail at its leg. The attack wasn't at full power, but it was enough to knock the creature off its feet and allow Danny to dive directly at it. The moment that happened, the creature was knocked on its back instantly.
The teamwork displayed by both Danny and Dani was amazing to see. But it wasn't enough to keep Genocide from standing once again. The latter of the halfas tried to strike her fist down on it foot, but instead hit the ground. Danny, on the other hand, created another duplicate which charged at the creature's face.
Genocide was powerful, but also quick on its own. It displayed this by giving a direct blow at the duplicate, thereby sending flying back until it couldn't be seen anymore. Its attention had been on the duplicate that it failed to react to Dani's swift kick at the back of its knee. The impact of it caused the creature to fall on its knee, but also made it angry enough to turn and shoot direct green beams at Dani's way.
There was no way to dodge the attack in time in its accuracy. The creature was so precise that it hit Dani fully, sending her flying through the surface of the ground.
"Dani!" Danny shouted. Seeing his cousin hit so bad angered the teen superhero instantly. His anger controlled him to charge at Genocide with glowing ecto fists.
Danny's attack would've hit, but Genocide was clever. He moved aside from Danny and grabbed half of his body, only to then toss his entire body hard on the ground. It then charged at Danny, who at the time tried to get up, and hit him directly with its knee. The impact of it sent Danny tumbling through wreckage, uncontrollably until finally coming to a stop.
Unfortunately, the creature didn't seem done with the hero. It was about to attack again, but fortunately didn't have to due to Dani. The female heroine flew at it and shot ecto beams from her eyes, hitting it directly at its back. The impact caused the creature to shout in pain, but also caught its attention to swiftly turn and punch her directly.
The punch seemed to be much, but it wasn't. Dani was knocked on her stomach, breathing hardly as she tried to get to up. Genocide, however, didn't allow her once it unleashed its ecto beams at the teen superhero. The impact sent Dani dragged through the earth until it stopped its approach.
The creature didn't stop out of habit, though. It was actually due to its head tingling, in a way alerting it of someone coming behind it. The creature responded to it and turned just in time to see Danny flying at it with his body in blue aura. His eyes were light blue as he rushed at the creature angrily. "You stay away from my cousin!" He yelled.
Immediately, the phantom hero unleashed a different ghostly wail. Unlike usual, the wail was blue and sent ice shards directly at the creature in full speed. The mass of it would've killed any weaker foe, which unfortunately wasn't in the case of Genocide. The creature showed this as it unleashed ghostly wail that was green and bigger than Danny's normal green wail.
On that very instant, their attacks clashed mightily. Danny and Genocide battled the other to overcome one another in a furious battle of ghostly wails. Unfortunately, the teen superhero stood no chance when their attacks clashed with each other. Genocide's wail was so powerful that it directly hit Danny, sending him crashing to what remained to be a building.
With both heroes down, there was nothing standing in its way. Timmy was witnessed to it as he stood horrified with his fairies at the entire scene.
"What just happened?" He questioned, shocked.
"I-I don't know." Poof stammered.
Their words were to their own, but it unfortunately wasn't. It caught Genocide's attention and made him turn to the boy and its fairies with its terrifying glare. The obvious sight of it looking at them shocked the boy as he took a step back. "Oh crud. Get us out of here!" He shouted.
"Oh, so now you listen to Danny." Cosmo said.
Wanda shot her husband a glare, but raised her wand nonetheless. Though Timmy didn't exactly wish to leave, it was granted immediately just in time to avoid the creature landing on them. However, their reappearance was on the top of a roof.
"AH! What are we doing here?!" Timmy asked, surprised.
"It's the ecto energy." Wanda stated. She looked horrified as she explained. "The battle and the energy the monster released earlier made this whole place radiated with ecto energy! We're basically powerless here!"
"What?!"
The fear in Timmy was real, now more real than before. It only became worse when Genocide jumped at him in its full size, ready to crush the boy. Timmy was in fear that he jumped off the building, only to then scream with his hands flailing.
"AHHH! I'M FALL!" He shouted.
"I got this, Timmy." Poof suddenly said.
True to his words, the magical fairy child did as it said. It disappeared and reappeared as Timmy's shoes, allowing the boy to land safely on the ground. The boy sighed in relief and smiled a bit at his shoes, specifically at Poof. "Thanks, Poof. You really saved me." He said.
"That's great." The fairy child said. He smiled at his god brother at that moment until it dropped into a frown. "I'm glad you enjoyed it. But might I suggest we run."
Timmy's eyes grew wide as realization came to him. "We should!" He shouted.
Poof's intuition to run was no surprise to any of them. It in fact saved them due to Genocide, who descended down on them after the boy jump away. Poof's magic was limited due to the ecto energy in the area, but it didn't stop him from getting Timmy to jump a bit distance from the creature.
The distance away from the creature wasn't much, though. But it impressed Timmy, who landed on the ground with a wide smile on his face. "Wow! That was awesome!" He shouted.
"Yeah, but that won't save us! Look!" shouted Cosmo.
The others only had little time to grasp what Cosmo meant. But even when they did, it was already too late to escape. What Cosmo saw was Genocide, who was only a few distances from them as it came crashing down on them with its large claws at them. Timmy and his fairies could only scream as their doom came down on them with a roar.
Suddenly, an intervention came with a ghost wail. Though it couldn't hurt the monster, it knocked it hard on the ground away from Timmy and his fairies. The unexpected save confused Timmy and his fairies until they looked up and found Dani flying in the air.
The state Dani was in was bad, but not terrible fortunately. Her ponytail hair was now loose, scattered unfashionable while her suit possessed scratches. The girl didn't seem mindful of it though, as she turned to Timmy with a straight face. "Are you guys, okay?" She asked.
"Um, yeah." Timmy answered.
"Good. Now get out of here!" She shouted.
Anything that could have been said was open. However, Genocide rose once again and leapt at Dani with aloud roar. Dani reacted quickly by flying directly at it, only for it to then grab her with its large hand and throw her hand on the ground. Before the girl could fly off, the creature came down on her with its large leg. Dani would've been crushed by it if it weren't for her super strength allowing her to hold it up.
The strain on holding the large creature was very hard, though. Its size and effort to crush the teen heroine was a big strain on Dani, who found her knees barely able to hold up. But despite her state, she was able to turn at Timmy with a serious look. "Get out of here now!" She shouted.
That instant, the creature's leg came down on her. However, the girl appeared in the air before the monster before punching it hard on the face. Timmy could only see the fight happen before turning away and jumping away as fast as he could. His feeling towards it, however, was hard on him.
The boy took the chance to escape, but that didn't hold back negative emotion. He felt dread as he heard Dani scream, followed by some crash sounds as the monster roared. His mind tried to block it out, but he couldn't do it at all. Instead, he kept jumping until they were distance away and hiding behind an upside down car.
The day started out very promising and great. However, Timmy felt far from what he felt in the beginning. He began panting and unknowingly crying until Wanda pointed it out.
"Timmy, are you crying?"
The boy paused as he acknowledged it. His fingers then touched his cheek before he brought it to his face, only to then see it for himself. A big frown was on his face as he answered. "Yeah…I guess I am. I just wish I can do something."
"Oh, Timmy." Wanda said with a sad tone. "I'm sorry you have to feel this way. If only there was something we can do."
Timmy's ears took well to Wanda's words, which was odd to say. In some cases, he would normally shrug off the fairy's words and do what he wants. However, recent circumstance had made him listen to her, which in turn brought an idea to his mind. On that moment, his head perk up. "Wait, maybe there is." He said.
By the tone of the boy's voice, it was clear he had an idea. He quickly went to it as he raised his arm, which had Wanda as a wristband on it. "Wanda, you remember when Danny's dad forced you, Cosmo and Poof to his lab, right?"
"Sadly I do." Wanda frowned.
"Good. There's some ghost fighting equipment that Danny showed me when." He said.
Though his intention weren't full clear, it became the opposite for Wanda. Just by her godson explaining it made her face change to astonishment upon getting the idea. "Are you saying that –"
"Mhm." Timmy nodded.
Cosmo interjected. "Hey, I'm over here. And I'm so confuse…more than usual."
The hidden means behind the conversation even affected Poof. But fortunately, Wanda decided to explain, this time with an excited smile. "What Timmy is saying is that we can use the ghost fighting technology instead of our magic."
"Wow, that's awesome." Poof commented with a smile.
"Exactly." Timmy said. "Now wands up, guys. It's time for me to step into the field."
Determined than before, the fairies did as told by raising their wands. Timmy then said his wife, which resulted in a big pink poof all over his body.
Fighting Genocide by oneself was never easy. However, the odds of winning the battle never stopped Dani from fighting onwards. The girl was exhausted from taking multiple blows from the creature and being on the offense against it. The creature was a being of unbelievable strength and showed no exhaustion in the fight.
Being on the offense again, Dani flew at the creature faces and began punching at it. Her fast punches forced the creature, but didn't last for long. The reason for this was Genocide, who suddenly grabbed her and flung her against the ground hard. She crashed with a grunt, but nonetheless flew directly at it fast.
The speed from the girl was remarkable. She came at his face with a ready ecto punch, only to then be punched directly at the creature. The impact sent her flying through the air before then hitting the ground, crashing through debris before coming to a stop.
Exhausted, Dani panted very hard as she tried to get up. Her suit was in a bad shape as it showed parts of it torn off and scratched off. Her hair was scattered way out of place while her open wounds began to slowly heal. The girl only had a few seconds to recover before Genocide on her, unleashing its ghostly wail.
Dani reacted fast to it, but still felt the strain. She quickly got on her back and raised both her hands up, creating an ecto shield dome to protect her. The action did the thing, but not for long once it began to weaken. The seconds she spent there made it weaker until she became intangible and sunk into the ground.
On that very instant, the shield broke down. Genocide's wail hit the ground and dug right through it in its full force. Dani's whereabouts were not known until he came to a stop, revealing the ghost girl at the bottom in an unconscious state.
Looking down on her, Genocide let out a roar in the air. Its eyes were at the sky until it looked back down, this time charging up its eyes to fire. The creature would've gotten its way if not for an intervening force, ramming directly at its back and sending it flying away. The intervening force revealed the person to be Danny, fully recovered from the attack from the creature.
With his eyes down at the hole, Danny quickly flew right in to retrieve his cousin. He held her in his hands and laid her unconscious body softly on the ground. The sight of her beaten state sickened Danny, who couldn't help but feel terrible at the sight. He was able to check her pulse before sighing in relief to know she was alive.
However, the feeling didn't last for long. The reason became Genocide, who rose again with a loud roar. His cry caught Danny's attention and made him turn, standing up with glowing green eyes. His body changed drastically by having his hair became flame-like, flickering in the air, and his skin becoming blue like.
Once the change was done, Danny stood up in a higher power level. His eyes became brighter than usual while his hands were engulfed in the same color. The energy running through him were mixed with his emotion, leading him to face the creature angrily. "You've harmed Dani! I'll make you pay for that!"
"Danny…no." Dani whispered.
Her words, however, went unheard. She watched with small open eyes as her cousin unleashed a blast unlike any other one he has done. He had his hands forward and unleashed a huge ecto beam from them and his eyes. The combination of both front attacks made it so much that it covered Genocide entirely, forcing him away as he cried.
Danny poured out all he could without stopping. His anger and frustrations were at the creature, which just seemed not to die. He never intended to kill his enemies, but the same couldn't be said for him to Genocide. He just kept on going with a loud cry before finally coming to a stop and falling on his knees.
"That…should…do it." He panted heavily.
"No…it doesn't." said Dani.
Confused, Danny looked back at his cousin. He noticed her sitting up, though barely, before she explained. "Genocide feeds on energy. He doesn't overload or slow done in the consumption. He's so powerful he can take a nuclear warhead filled with anti-ectoplasm and survive it easily."
Danny's eyes became wide upon being informed. He didn't know how to process the fact that Dani knew this and also Genocide's ability. The creature appeared only sometime ago, but yet his cousin was aware of its power.
"How do you know this?" He asked, confused.
Dani took a small breath and fully sat up. Her eyes were directly at her cousin before she answered. "I know this, Danny, because I'm…I'm from the future. It's very obvious."
"No way." Danny gasped.
Their conversation at that time was the most shocking. But it didn't last for long due to Genocide's roar coming unexpectedly. There, the two halfas found Genocide being surged once again by green electricity. Its body grew larger than before and grew other features such as a long tail and a chin-like spike. Along with its change was its skin becoming thicker, making him strong against offensive attacks.
The view of the creature was so terrifying that it scared Danny and his cousin. Both of them could do nothing as they watched the creature fully evolve once again.
"It's-it's happening again." Dani muttered. "I came too late."
Any hope at this moment seemed diminished. Genocide stood in his full strength and unleashed huge green ecto beams directly from its eyes and mouth. The size of it was overwhelming at sight as Dani and Danny watched it coming to them, obviously in fear.
Suddenly, a small figure did a front spin roll in the air, above the heroes. It landed before them and shot an arrow at the incoming blast, causing it to tear apart in an instant. The unexpected defense surprised Danny and his cousin, with both of them looking at the figure now standing before them.
The person they saw was someone unexpected. It was clearly a male, though an age younger than both the heroes. He wore a green leather jacket, black pants that had green lines by the side and wore a black shirt underneath. His hands were worn by fingerless glove while his brown hair was spiky upwards.
The male that stood before them was a boy at the age of ten. His name was Timmy Turner, now wearing an entirely different appearance. He stood with a bold look on his face and turned at the halfas with the same look. "Are you guys okay?" He asked.
"Timmy, it's you?" Danny questioned. He was staring confuse at the boy. "H-How are you here? And what's with the look?"
"Oh, this?" Timmy asked and glanced at his clothes. By doing such it was further revealed that he wore the spector deflector around his waist and had it equipped with other various ghost fighting weapons while also having two blades on his back, crossed at each other. The boy seemed proud about his getup, even as he looked back at Danny and Dani. "This is just some things from your lab. Cosmo, Wanda and Poof were a great help."
"Who?" Danny asked.
"His fairies." Dani answered.
"You know about them?" Timmy asked, surprised. He stared at the female phantom who nodded as she tried to get up.
The effort to stand again, however, failed. The pain from enduring Genocide's attacks was still strong on her, therefore causing her to fall back on her butt. "Urggh…yes, I know about them. I actually met with Cosmo, Wanda and Poof in the future and you…before they left." She said.
The revelation of the mystery surprisingly didn't shock Timmy. But he did react to it in the form of a frown, which didn't get explained due to Danny. The ghost hero decided then to speak, clearly surprised at the revelation. "Wait, fairies are actually real?" Danny asked. He paused for a moment and looked at Timmy again. "Hold on. Do you by some chance have a fairy dog?"
"Uh, yeah. Why?"
Danny sighed. "Great. Now I owe Jazz an apology."
Hearing the statement was confusing to Timmy. He would've asked about it if not for a loud roar cutting him off from doing it. The sound of it instantly reminded the boy of Genocide, who now hearing their way in a giant leap.
"AAAHHH! Incoming!" Timmy shouted.
The time they saw the creature coming was at a bad. However, it awakened Danny's hero side as he departed his legs from each other and glared determinedly at the creature. "Stay back. I'll hold him off." He said.
"Danny, wait." Dani said back.
Unfortunately, the phantom girl's cry went unheard. Danny leapt directly at the creature and sent him swinging up at the creature's forehead. The impact of the kick was powered by ecto energy, causing it to fall to the ground on its back.
Back at Timmy and Dani, the two of them watched the collision happen. The sight of it awed Timmy until Dani called him quickly. The boy responded by turning back and listened to the halfa speaking with fear in her voice. "Timmy, please wish yourself out of here. Genocide can't be killed."
"I can't." Timmy replied.
"Why can't you!?" Dani yelled angrily. "It's this kind of bravery stubbornness that got you killed!"
"I was…I'm dead?" Timmy stammered. His entire body felt fearful as he took the information in.
Seeing Timmy in such a state was no surprise. But it dawned on Dani negatively as she realized her mistake and sighed. A frown formed on her face as she bowed her head down and answered. "Yes, you died. In the future, Genocide killed you and a few heroic meta-humans in a battle at a place called Orchid Bay. When the guardian (A/N: Juniper Lee) was killed in a solo battle prior to it, you, Firestorm, Beastboy, Kid Flash, Katana, Black Lightning, Metamorpho, the American Dragon and Norrisville Ninja decided to keep the monster occupied until evacuation of the town was complete. By the time it was over, Beastboy, Black Lightning, Metamorpho, the American Dragon and the ninja were dead. The others were heavily injured and had no way of escaping. However…you…you decided to hold Genocide off until they got away. That's…that's how you died."
Once Dani was done, a moment of silence happened between the two. Timmy could feel his very body shaking while he stared wide eyed at Dani trembling. He couldn't take the fear from his mind or body, even as he turned his back at Dani and spoke with a trembling voice. "I-I can't leave….I-I t-told m-my fai-fairies to leave."
"Oh." Dani muttered. She felt deeply saddened as she realized what she did. When Timmy said he couldn't leave, he actually meant that he couldn't even if he wanted to. It all made sense to the phantom girl, who could do nothing but stare at the boy's back. "I-I'm sorry. I didn't know." She said.
"It's okay." Timmy said back. He took a deep breath and gulp down his spit before letting out puff of air from his nose. The fear in him was real, however, he was able to clutch his fist tightly as he looked forward. "If I die, please tell my parents I love them."
Dani's eyes grew wide. "Oh no, Timmy, don't!"
"Goodbye." Timmy said.
Before Dani could object further, the boy left with a huge leapt. He could hear Dani shout his name, saying he shouldn't go. However, the boy ignored her as he headed straight into a battle that most likely would be his last.
The battle between Danny and Genocide was intense. To the halfa hero, the fight was unlike any fight he had done alone. The past ghosts he fought were tough and always seemed unbeatable until he won the fight. However, the same couldn't be said about Genocide, a fusion of alien DNA and ghost to be the very definition that he was named.
At the moment, Danny was at an advantage as he held Genocide's pointy chin. He was on top of the creature as he drag the creature through the ground in full speed. The creature's back pushed through the surface of the ground until it suddenly backhanded Danny with its huge hand. The impact of the hit sent the super teen tumbling to the ground until he managed to touch his feet on the ground.
Looking at the creature, Danny quickly got to action by stretching his glowing hands. He used them to activate his telekinesis powers, which he then used to send two large chunk of the ground against Genocide. At the time, the creature was standing up when it then found itself hit by the chunks of earth. However, not surprising, it still stood on its feet.
Danny's attack may have been for good, but it also angered the creature. It roared angrily at the superhero and marched its way towards the ghost hero. Danny saw the creature heading towards him and so quickly sent his hands forward, this time sending endless debris and rocks at the creature. The things he used were covered in green ecto energy, which were made harder than they were previously.
The attacks sent at the creature were, however, not enough. It was able to keep the monster from moving forward, but it also angered it very further. As a result, it telepathically created a green ecto dome that blocked the attacks from hitting it. Then, with a loud roar, the ecto dome expanded and grew so large that it went through Danny's attacks and hit him hard.
The impact of the attack was unexpected to the ghost hero. It was so strong that it sent the teen tumbling through debris until finally coming to a stop. The teen panted heavily, with his hair scattered out of its usual fashion as he managed to stand up. He could feel his strength diminishing, but could still feel his determination as sharp as ever.
Whether Danny's fighting spirit would defeat Genocide was, however, yet to be proven. If anything, it failed Danny to react when he suddenly felt the ground underneath him shake violently. His chance to escape from that moment was useless as the ground rose with him on it, before then turning upside down and sending it down on him.
The happening was unexpected, but not without knowing the one responsible. It turned out it was no other than Genocide, who currently had its hand extended at where Danny once stood. The creature was panting heavily until Danny flew right out of the rubble in his intangible form. Before the creature knew it, the ghost boy became tangible and shot direct ice beams at the creature.
Usually, Danny's ice was able to freeze those in its way instantly. However, this didn't work on Genocide when it came in contact with its skin. The thickness of it prevented the ice's physical function, thereby allowing it to grab Danny with its huge hand and stoning him hard on the ground. The impact of it shook the very ground, as well as sent it splattered away. When it all came down, Genocide brought back its hand to reveal Danny lying in a huge crater in his human form.
The tides of fate had now shifted against Danny. In fact, just seeing the boy unconscious, caused the creature's animal instinct to further kick in as it raised its hand up to finish the boy off. However, it didn't get to have that choice the moment two arrows were shot at its eyes, exploding instantly.
A loud pained cry came from Genocide, with it backing away. Its red eyes were momentarily gone until it healed instantly, allowing it to look forward at the person responsible. It turned out that person was Timmy, who currently stood with a bow in his hand. The boy stood boldly at the creature's eye sight, knowing full well that he had caught the creature's attention.
"Hey! Come get me, you stupid reject!" He shouted.
Not surprisingly, Genocide responded in the best way it could. It let out an angry roar and jumped at Timmy with its hands stretched at the boy's direction. Timmy saw the creature coming and decided to evade it switching his bow into a grappling gun. He did it swiftly and pointed it at a building before shooting the grappling hook at it, enabling it to then pull him away with it. He did it just in time, as Genocide came crashing down on where he once stood.
However, the chase had only begun. It became that way once Timmy got on the railing of the building, only to then jump higher to another railing as Genocide came after him again. The impact caused the building to shake, but not enough to knock to it down fortunately. The position Timmy was in gave him the chance he needed to draw out of one his ecto swords and fall on the creature's shoulder.
With the ecto sword with him, Timmy held it with both hands and sent it swiftly at the back of Genocide's head. The impact surprisingly broke though the creature's thick skin, causing it to let go of the building as it cried out in pain. As a result of its action, it fell on its back against the ground while Timmy jumped off it and landed on the ground safely.
At the point, a new battle between Timmy and Genocide seemed inevitable. However, before the fight could start, a familiar black and white blur flew by Timmy and took him distance away. Looking at it, Timmy found himself in the hands of Danny Phantom.
"Hey, what's the big idea?!" Timmy shouted.
"I should be asking you!" Danny shouted back. The anger in his voice was real, with his eyes glaring at the boy. "You have no idea what you're up against! You'll die!"
"Yeah, like I don't know that!" Timmy yelled back. "But I can't let you or Dani die!"
"This isn't your fight!"
"It is now!"
Suddenly, Timmy sent his hand to the specter deflector and turned it on. Once he did that, the anti-ghost energy from it shook Danny and caused him to let go of Timmy, who ended up landing perfectly on the ground. His action however angered the ghost teen to land next to him angrily. "Stop this now, Timmy!" He yelled.
"Stop what?" Timmy asked angrily. His eyes glared at the his idol hero as he continued. "You don't know me very much, Danny! This isn't my first time being caught in a big fight! I know the risk and the danger…especially with what Danny told me." He then frowned.
The way Timmy said at the last part instantly got Danny's concern. His anger nearly diminished as he continued to look down at the boy. "What did she tell you? Was it about the future?" He asked.
Timmy nodded. "Yeah…in it I'm dead."
Danny gasped at the news. Unfortunately, his reaction didn't show itself due to Timmy as he whipped his head forward. "Incoming!" He shouted.
Timmy's warning was not the only thing noticeable. A show of this was Danny's ghost sense which came out as a blue wisp from his mouth. The reason behind it revealed itself to be Genocide running towards them on its two huge feet. The creature had its deadly red eyes at them as it continued to close the distance between it and them.
Though they hadn't speak much, both Danny and Timmy knew the time called for action. Timmy even reacted to it by turning to Danny with his ecto sword still in his hands. "Before my fairies left, they gave me the skill to fight and your ghost fighting weapons. So how about you hit Genocide high and I hit it low." He said.
Danny took a few seconds to process what just happened. Timmy just took the initiative, which was contradictory to his attitude before Vlad and Genocide showed up. Fortunately, he shook the thought away as he got to his stance. "Okay. Just try not to get hurt." He said back.
"I can't promise you that."
A thought about Timmy's words crossed Danny's mind. However, it didn't come out of his mouth once the boy ran off to fight Genocide. So rather than pursue about it, Danny flew up into the air and began to concentrate on his body. His power was not equal to how he had in the beginning of the fight, so it was actually a mild strain to have body covered in the green aura.
Fortunately, with enough concentration, Danny achieved what he wanted in the creation of three exact duplicates. They all knew what to do, even as they all flew at Genocide with Danny flying behind them. The creature noticed them coming, but failed to react as three duplicate hit Genocide separately on his shoulders and head.
The attack formation would've been strong earlier at Danny's full strength. However, it only caused the creature to move back before the actual Danny then flew at it in full speed. The impact the teen made was directly at its forehead, causing the creature to stumble back more. The creature's unfortunate time was the perfect time for Timmy to strike, which he did by running at the back of its leg and hit it directly at the ankle with his ecto sword. Once the collision happened, Genocide was knocked down on the ground on its back.
However, the fact that the creature was down didn't mean it was over. In fact, Genocide sat back up instantly with a roar as it looked up at the air. It did this just in time, as a duplicate of Danny flew at him with his fist ready to hit the giant. Unfortunately, Genocide caught the duplicate with its open hand and squeezed on it so tight that it dissipated into nothing.
Before the creature was ruthless than anyone could imagine. However, just by seeing it kill the duplicate with its own hand was something of a higher level. Timmy gulped at the sight and watched as the creature stood by in its full height, only to then change its sight at him.
Though there wasn't much information on Genocide, the creature still remembered Timmy. As a result, it sent its huge hand down on the boy without hesitation. Timmy, fortunately, moved out of the way on time before using his sword to slash against the thick skin of the giant's wrist. The collision did little damage, but also angered Genocide as it against used that hand to backhand at Timmy. However, this time, Timmy was able to power the ecto sword and slice creature's hand off.
"Wow!" Timmy shouted, surprised. A grin formed on his face once he saw Genocide cry out in pain as it stepped back. The fact that he got injured the creature made him happy as he turned to Danny. "Dude, did you see that? I just cleaned his hand off."
"Good work, Timmy!" Danny smiled. However, the happy moment ended once he pointed at Genocide with a horrified look. "Timmy, look out!"
Timmy did as told, but couldn't act on time. Genocide used its other hand to swat against the boy, sending him tumbling through the ground. The sight of it caught Danny surprised, but also angered him to send his two other duplicates against the creature. Their combined force might be able to do something to Genocide if it weren't for one thing.
The thing mentioned revealed itself in the form of Genocide's lasers. Unlike the usual green ecto beams, the one he shot were red beams that hit the duplicates instantly. The impact caused them to explode, leaving the real Danny to fight the creature on his own. He noticed the creature eyeing him before flying away just in time to avoid its red ecto beams.
The fact that he dodged them was good, but also bad. Danny found the latter out when he looked back and saw the lasers hit the ground and buildings away, causing them to erupt into explosion. The reality of the attack hit Danny harder than he realized, even as he turned back at the creature again.
Genocide was about ready to fire again when something happened. Its hand regenerated back to how it was while its sense caught the presence of Timmy. As a result, it turned to its right and found the boy heading straight towards it with the same ecto sword in his hand. The creature reacted quickly to him by sending its hand down on him, but failed to hit him.
The reason behind it was surprising even to Timmy. Not only did he evade the giant's hand, he climbed on top of it and jumped on top of the spikes on its wrists. Then with the sword still in hand, the kid jumped off one of the spikes and went direct at Genocide's eye, piercing it directly with full thrust.
The attack didn't do much, but it caused pain for Genocide. Timmy saw this as good as he then got on top of the sword and jumped over the creature's head. Another weapon was in his hand instantly in the form of his bow, which he loaded with three arrows from his stack. With it, he was upside down heading to the ground when he fired the arrows at the same time.
The arrows hit as precisely and exploded on contact. However, it did no harm on Genocide's thick skin unlike its previous use against its eyes. Timmy noticed it as he did a flip and landed on his feet perfectly. He then watched as Genocide turned to him, unintentionally exposing the boy's ecto sword as it shattered into pieces.
Before, Timmy's weapons seemed to do some of damage. Unfortunately, the tides of that opportunity had changed due to the creature's ability to evolve from its damage. Timmy didn't need to figure that out, especially as the creature let out a roar so loud that it almost blew Timmy away. The creature was about to raise its hands down on him when suddenly green ecto goo wrapped around its arms to its sides.
Looking up behind him, Timmy looked to the person responsible. It turned out to be Danny, who at the time being showed a lot of strain as he tried holding the creature. "Timmy…go…now." He managed to say.
"I can't leave you!" Timmy shouted in despair.
"There's no time to debate this! Just go!"
It was clear at that moment that hoped seemed lost in the battle. It also became clearer as the creature began to surge green energy again, though this time directing it at the whip around him. Since Danny held the end of it, the ghost boy was shocked with ectoplasm electricity that resulted to him screaming.
Seeing your hero at his best was great. However, seeing him at his most suffering was a terrible thing to see in the case of Timmy. He watched as voltage of electricity coursed through Danny's body to the point that he could see his skeleton flash. The pain was so much that once it ended, Danny's body changed back to its human self as it fell to the ground with a loud thud.
"Danny!" Timmy shouted in horror.
Things seemed from bad to worse when it again came to Genocide. The creature caught Timmy's attention as it let out a roar and sent its hands apart, tearing the ecto whip that restrained it. Before the kid could think of anything, it raised its glowing foot and stopped it on the ground. The impact caused a shockwave that sent debris and the earth flying, with Timmy and an unconscious Danny being part of them. By the time it all cleared, Timmy and Danny lay on the ground unconscious.
If any citizen of Amity Park were alive, they would be shocked to see the scene. Their town hero and world superhero, Danny Phantom, lay defeated on the ground. However, the only one that stood to see all that was Genocide…and Dani Phantom.
Standing a few feet away, Dani watched the scene with tears in her eyes. Her cousin and Timmy lay on the ground defeated. Their effort could be admirable, but to Dani it was a painful thing to even think. She could see the whole thing flash in her head continuously until finally she snapped with glaring eyes at the creature.
"I-I'LL MAKE YOU PAY!" shouted the phantom girl.
Though she was still in her ghost form, her entire body began to radiate visibly white aura. The rage in her grew and became the source of energy as she flew at the creature. Genocide noticed her presence upon hearing her and let out a roar as it sent its hand down on her. Dani was able to evade it though by flying between its legs before flying above him.
Looking down, Dani came to a stop for the creature. An idea was in her mind, though what it could be was unknown besides her. But for it to be acted on she needed Genocide to follow her, which it did by jumping at her with its right hand stretched at her. Dani was able to fly high to above it, however that didn't stop the creature from flying behind her.
If Dani didn't go any further she would've been caught by Genocide. Fortunately, her intuition led her to the dark night clouds to gain an advantage over the creature. The cause of the darkness was due to the gases released from Amity Park which lay in flames from less comparison to its former self. There, above it, Dani was ready to fight Genocide on her own again.
Genocide, on its part, followed by the mindless creature it was. It immediately shot out red laser beams from its eyes, causing them to head for Dani. The phantom teen was fortunate to move out of the way just in time, though not without looking back to see the beams explode in the deep black skies with a red flash.
Most people would be unable to see through the darkness. However, Dani was able to see through the clouds due her eyes glowing. She instantly saw Genocide heading for her before charging at the creature head first. Her direct flight at the creature caught its attention, which it responded by letting out more red ecto lasers at her.
When the lasers came in fast, Dani had to react quickly. She did it by moving out of the way of various shots while keeping her head forward at the creature. Before the creature could react, she rammed her whole body at the creature, causing it to move back.
The attack was effective on collision, but sadly not enough. Though Genocide was taken aback by it, it shot an ecto whip from its palm and caught Dani in its grasp. There, it came to a stop and released a high voltage of electricity at Dani, who would likely be defeated by the attack.
However, Dani had more experience than her past. A display of this was as she formed into a wisp and flew right out of the ecto whip's hold before then forming back to normal. Then, with the same white aura all over her body, the girl flew straight at the creature and punched it at the face.
Genocide responded to the hit with a small frustrated beastly groan. Dani's attack was the first of others, which she commenced as she disappeared from the creature's front and appeared behind it. Before Genocide knew it, the girl punched him again at the back of its neck. The attack pushed the giant forward as a result, allowing Dani to then appear above it and send both hands down on its forehead.
Again, Genocide received the other end of the attack as it was sent down. It cried out in frustration and mild pain as it headed downwards. However, though Dani's effort was admirable, the creature came to a stop and looked at Dani with beastly glaring eyes. Dani was unfazed by it as she watched the creature fly at her in full speed. The phantom girl responded to it by flying directly at him with her fist raised at it.
A groan escaped Danny's lips as he could barely hear a voice calling out his name. As he failed to respond, the voice grew louder while he was shook by the source of it. The teen felt tired and as such groaned as he rolled his body to his side. "I'll be up…just…five more minutes." He mumbled.
However, the teen didn't get the minutes he wanted. The reason behind this was an instant splash of water which then led the teen to sit up in shock. "Okay! Okay! I'm up!" He shouted.
At first, the teen expected to be in his room with his sister standing next to him with a bucket in hand. But what he found were Timmy and three floating miniature people with wings on their backs, looking at him solely.
"Ha! I knew you weren't dead!" shouted the green haired one.
"Cosmo, shut up!" scowled the pink haired fairy. She then eased down her emotion and faced Danny again, this time concerned. "Are you okay?"
"Um, yeah." Danny answered. The look on his face said that as well as showed confusion. The reason of the latter was due to the presence of the winged fellows. "I'm sorry, but who are you?" Danny asked Wanda.
"They're…they're my fairies." Timmy answered. He looked uneasy on answering it due to the secrecy behind them. However, that didn't stop him from continuing. "You can thank them for helping us from our injuries."
"Oh." Danny said. He looked back at Wanda and smiled at her a bit. "Thanks for doing…whatever you did. I'm Danny."
"We know who you are." Wanda smiled back. "I'm Wanda."
"I'm Poof." said the youngest.
"And I'm Cosmo." added the green haired one. He paused for a moment as he grabbed both Poof and Wanda and pulled them to a huge stage with flickering flight show. There, he held his hand out while the two other fairies frowned. "And we're Timmy's fairy god family." He shouted cheerfully.
Timmy groaned while Timmy raised an unsure eyebrow. Wanda and Poof seemed to feel the same way as they flew back to Timmy and Danny side. Their action confused the green haired fairy as he threw his hands down while looking confused. "Um…too soon?"
"You think?" Timmy and the others said sarcastically.
A lot could be said about Cosmo and his behavior at that moment. However, it didn't come up among them due to reality hitting Danny. The teen looked at both sides and saw the devastation around him before the face of a familiar person came to mind.
"Oh no! Where's Danny?" He shouted fearfully.
Timmy didn't answer the question, as the same went with the fairies. Instead, they pointed to a particular part of the dark clouds which could be seen with flashes of red and green colors.
The battle between Genocide and Dani was unlike anything the girl had faced. The fact that she came from the future should have put her in a better advantage over the creature than anyone in the present time. However, this common fact didn't play well with her.
As the battle continued, Dani received the bad side of it. Her body could be seen crashing to the ground helplessly, which led her to hit a standing pole on the ground before being dragged through the surface of the ground. There, she coughed hard and spat out ectoplasm from her mouth before trying to get back on her feet.
The state the girl was in was worse than she previously was. Her hair was scattered out of place while her suit suffered multiple tears on her waist, chest, pants and hands. The exposure of these tears revealed burnt marks, which the girl could feel healing as she tried to stand up.
Suddenly, Genocide came down from the sky to land. When it did, it landed close to Dani and caused a shockwave that tore the ground apart. Dani was almost hit by it if she hadn't become intangible just in time to avoid it. However, when she became tangible, Genocide ran at her and kicked her hard like a football. The strength of the kick sent her tumbling through all kinds of debris before coming to a stop on the ground.
Weakened, Dani knew that there wasn't much she could do. She was able to lie on her back before holding her hands up to create an ecto dome shield. She did it at a good time, due to Genocide as it came down from a far leap and shot down straight at her with ecto red lasers.
'Danny…' She called out telepathically.
The distance between her and Danny were long, but it was worth the try. Fortunately, the message got through to Danny, who received it in surprise as he looked around him. "Dani, where are you?" He asked.
"Uh, she isn't here, dude." Cosmo said.
However, the fairy was instantly pushed aside by Danny. The teen ran urgently without saying a word, which confused Timmy and the others. The manner of it got Timmy to follow, only for his attempt to fail as Wanda held him back.
"Wanda, let me go!" Timmy yelled angrily.
His words were demanding to the fairy godmother in a harsh manner. But it went into deaf ears as the fairy held him back, with Poof following to do the same. Timmy tried to struggle out of their grip, but they refused to let him go.
Back at Danny, the teen continued to run through the devastated town. The urgency on his face was mixed with fear and determination as he continued to run on his feet. Along the way, he tried to activate the familiar white rings to appear and change him to his ghost form. Unfortunately, each attempt he made ended with it sparking into nonexistence.
'Danny…Danny, can you hear me?' Dani's voice asked.
"Yes, I can." Danny shouted.
'Good…there's something I need to tell you while I have the chance.'
Danny felt tensed upon hearing the girl's words. He continued his run as fast he could, evading any large debris in his way as he continued. As for Dani, she continued. 'There are two reasons why I came from the future to interfere with the present. The first…obviously…was to stop Genocide. From where I am…the future… about ten percent of civilization is left while the numbers of heroes and villains have diminished almost entirely because of Genocide. I remained of that small percentage of heroes and was selected…by Dexter…to come to the present and prevent Genocide from being created. But…Genocide…it has become so powerful that it manipulated the flow of time for me…making me to end up precisely when it was created.'
'As for the other reason, it was to ensure that you and Timmy don't die. In my time…Amity Park was the first place Genocide destroyed…with the first hero he killed being you.'
"You can tell me all that later!" Danny shouted determinedly. The speed he was going was superior to the average speed of a human. But whether he realized this was unknown as he continued. "Wait, Dani! I'm coming to help you!"
'No! You must stay away! Genocide is stronger than I expected! You don't want to get involved in this!'
"Of course I do!" Danny cried out loud. "I won't let you do this on your own! I PROMISE!"
Dani heard her cousin's determined words clearly despite the state she was in. Genocide never stopped on its approach against her as it continued to rain down its red ecto laser beams. The strain of it was unbearable for Dani, who continued to hold up the ecto shield dome as much as she could.
Her effort didn't seem enough to defend herself. However, the tides changed as she felt confident at herself while the creature didn't seem to stop. A determined look formed as a result of before she then disappeared out of sight with the ecto shield dome being nothing. Once that happened, Genocide's beams shot through the ground, digging several feet in.
At that same time, Danny grew closer to the site. He could already see Genocide and see the damage it caused upon trying to destroy Dani. Another thing he then noticed was Dani, who appeared behind it and called out at it. "Come get me, ugly!"
Not surprisingly, Genocide responded as it turned to her and flew towards her. Dani flew back in order to keep the creature back, knowing full well of what would happen. A tear formed from her eyes before she wiped it away as she made her hand intangible to pull out something from her inside. Once she got it in her hand, she closed her hand around it and looked determinedly at Genocide again.
'I've been waiting for this moment. The moment I could destroy Genocide for all the deaths he caused.'
As Dani said the words in her head, Danny heard it clearly. His determination was mixed with fear and urgency as he ran as fast as his human legs could get him. He could already see Genocide rise from the ground, with full intention on Dani.
"Dani, get out of the way!" Danny shouted loudly.
His words, however, were ignored by his cousin. Rather than do what he said, Dani flew directly at Genocide with the remaining energy in her. At the same time, Danny came to a stop as he looked up and watched as both Dani and Genocide came against each other. Sadly, and to his upmost shock, only one would come victorious.
All hopes were for Dani to survive the closure with each other. However, when that happened, Danny gasped in shock as his eyes were fixed on the two. He saw Genocide coming to a stop with its mouth open, though occupied with something. That 'something' turned out to be Dani, bitten down halfway by Genocide's large teeth.
The entire scene was horrifying to witness. Not only had Genocide bitten down on Dani, it spit her body down and let it crash to the ground. As for Danny, he watched everything like it was slow motion as Dani headed to the ground heavily wounded.
'Danny…'
His name floated in Danny's mind by Dani's voice. The girl was still alive, though badly defeated as she continued to fall on the ground. The state Danny was in was in deep shock as flashbacks about Dani and he crossed his mind. Every scene, be it good times or bad, crossed the teen's mind as he continued to stand there with his mouth trembling.
'Danny…' echoed Dani's voice. 'I have always wanted to be like you…always wanted to be there for you. My past self doesn't know this, but at least you know it now. I'm so happy to have met you at the first time and…for the last time…You're going to live.'
The words thought out by Danny caused him to feel deeper than he already could. His cousin was still alive, though not for long for him to witness. Genocide made sure of that as it flew up and began powering up its eyes and mouth for a big blast. Once it completed the charge, it let the energy all out as Dani's body almost touched the ground.
'The days I spent with you…all that I lived for good…were the happiest ones of my life.'
On that very instant, the blast came down on Dani and anything close by. The impact was so big that it formed a round red explosion once it made contact with the ground.
'You gave me the power to be loved, to love back and care. I owe it all to you…dad.'
And so, with her body and mind destroyed, Danny couldn't hold the pain in. His voice found it hard to speak while his eyes trembled in the same pace with his mouth. Then, with a loud cry, he shouted in pain.
"DAANNNNIIIIEEELLLLEEEEE!"
*****(CHAPTER END)*****
Well…that happened.
I know this was a surprising twist of event since you all possibly assumed that Danny and the others would defeat Genocide. However, I am a guy that likes to experiment on the turnouts of many endings. Some are good and some can end gruesome, though I do set on clarifying them to be at least better. Also, if you've read any of my previous fanfictions, you would know I have a thing of killing characters and reviving them back (though this might not mean for future Dani).
Anyway, on to the reviews.

Sparksdonny: Yes, yes it is.
REVIEW REPLIES END.
Before I conclude I would like to say some things.
Thank you, dear readers, for still reading this fanfic. I apologize for the dark setting it had. The next chapter will have less on that and will be shorter than this one. The Teen Titans and past Dani will also appear in it, as well as an appearance of a villain to foreshadow the story with Kim and Ben.
Also there is more to Dani's death than meets the eye. It will be revealed in the next chapter when I get to it.
So with all that, I have reached my conclusion. Thank you again for reading. Please favorite, follow and review.
