Danny Phantom
The High School Life of Heros
Chapter 2- Truths and Secrets
The movie marathon had just started at Sam's. Danny and Sam took over a giant arm chair in front of the screen while Tucker and Raven sat on the couch and talked. 'Twilight' had just started when Danny and Sam's ghost sence went off.
"Uh, guys, me and Sam's gotta... go get more popcorn, we'll be right back." said Danny as he got up, pulling Sam along by the hand.
"What's up with those two? It's like they've got a secret or something." asked Raven.
"Uh, no. No secrets here!" said Tucker nervously. However, Raven thought this behavior suspicious and she was determined to find out.
15
minutes after Danny and Sam's sudden dissapearence, the two walked
back down to the theater with slightly torn clothes.
"What
happened to you two?" asked Raven with concern.
"Uh, my cat doesn't like Danny and he kinda picked a fight." lied Sam.
"Ok."
For the rest of the night, Danny and Sam would suddenly make an excuse to leave, leaving Tucker and Raven to themselfs for 15 and 20 mintues at a time. By the end of the movie, Raven was extremely curious.
'Twilight' ended around 9:00 and the boys had to go home.
"I'll see you tomarrow, Sam. And it was nice meeting you, Raven. Hope to see you around." waved Danny as he started to leave. Sam gave him a kiss goodbye that took much longer than needed.
"Wow, they really get into that don't they?' asked Raven giggling.
"You have no idea." stated Tucker while fiddling with his PDA.
Once the lip lock was over, Danny gabbed Tucker and the two went on thier way.
"So, are you gonna explain all those sudden walkouts, or not?" asked Raven as Sam was putting the movie stuff up.
"Just, some minor distractions. Nothing big." said Sam nervously.
"Sam, i'm not stupid. I know you and Danny weren't just making out in some random closet or something. It was much more serious than that. Something's up and I wanna know what it is."
By this time Sam could tell Raven was serious. Her navy eyes seemed to bore holes through Sam's mind, as if she can read her every thought.
"Fine. I'll tell you everything, but I want Danny to be here as well. I think you can be trusted." said Sam knowing she was defeated.
Raven agreed to meet everyone at Sam's house the next morning to walk to school together, and that's when they'd tell her everything.
About 5 in the morning, Sam was awoken by a sound at her window. She slowly rose from her warm covers to investigate. Her black silk nightgown falling around her knees.
"Danny? What's wrong?" asked Sam as she opened her window for her favorate halfa to come in.
"Ember
and Skulker." he said blushing at his girlfriend's night attire.
"Apparently Ember's mad at him for forgetting an aniversary or
something. And now she's tearing up the town."
Suddenly,
Sam's nightgown dissapeared in a bright flash of white light. When
the light died out, she stood floating in front of her boyfriend in a
white tubetop with an AP logo on her chest, jeans with one leg white
and the other black, black fingerless gloves that reached the middle
of her bicep, and black boots with a 3 inch heel. Her once midnight
black hair is now snow white and her rare lavender eyes were replaced
by a rich teal.
"Better get a move on if we wanna make it back in time for school." said Danny offering a hand to his girlfriend. The two phased out of Sam's room and flew to the park.
The two halfas arrived at the park just in time to see Ember distroying the fountain with her power chords.
"Sorry Ember, but your concert is cancelled!" shouted Angel blasting Ember's guitar with an ecto ray.
"Oh, great. The two dipsticks. How's couple life, loosers?" she mocked.
"Better
than yours, apparently. Why are you distroying the park, when you
should be distroying your boyfriend?" asked Danny.
"Because
the dipstick ran off, baby pop. And when I find him, he's gonna wish
he was never put together!" shouted Ember as she stroked another
chord on her guitar.
This one was purple, her usual attacks are blue, so this was strange to the two halfas.
It hit Danny and Angel square on and they flew back about 10 yards, crash landing on a park bench.
"What the hell was that?" asked Sam holding her head. She looked down to see her human self as well as Fenton, instead of Phantom.
"She neutralized our powers!" shouted Danny in shock.
"You got it, baby pop. So, for the next hour, your powers are useless. No one can stop me now!" shouted the ghostly pop diva.
"I wouldn't be so sure." said a mysterious voice. Ember turned around to see a dark figure.
"Who are you? Some sort of reinforcement?" she asked ready to strike again.
"Sorta." said the shadowy figure. The clouds above the early morning sky seemed to move on thier own, letting the vauge moonlight wash over the figure.
Reveiled, was a girl about 17 with short navy hair, ivory skin, and navy eyes with light blue swirls. The girl adorned a short white tube top with red, orange, green, blue and purple swirls. Her white skirt was short and was cut at an angle. It too had the same swirls as her top. White gloves reached her bicep. The girl wore no shoes, but instead had white ribbons going up her feet and legs.
The girl was beautiful, in a mysterious way.
"Who are you?" asked the girl pointing at Ember.
"I'm Ember McClain! The ghost zone's most powerful pop diva! And who are you, some reject from the goth population?"
"My name is Aurora. And you'll find out about my powers the hard way. Aquas subterra!" shouted the girl and the water from the distroyed fountain seemed to obey her. The water surrounded Ember and formed a barrier of ice around her. Then, the earth beneath the girl rose and attacked Ember with a wall of mud, dirt and rock.
This knocked the ghostly pop princess back a few hundred feet, knocking her unconsious.
Danny took advantage of this and sucked Ember into the Fenton Thermos.
He and Sam turned to see the mysterious girl floating a few inches above the ground a few feet away.
Suddenly, a loud cheer was heard from behind the three. Apparently, the battle had taken about 2 hours and was now 7:00am. A school bus filled with students from Casper High were piled in it cheering and waving to the new hero. The bus had stopped the second Aurora appeared.
"Uh, thanks. Aurora, is it?" asked Danny offering his hand.
"Yeah. Who are you? I mean, who were you before?" asked the girl.
"Oh, well, we're the protectors of this city. We're known as Danny and Angel Phantom." explained Danny.
"I see. You're halfas."
"Yeah, how did you know that? And a better question would be, who or what are you?" asked Danny.
Aurora smiled at the two, looked to make sure the bus was gone, and crossed her arms, a bright flash of light surrounded the girl and when it cleared, Raven Wheeler stood before them.
"Raven!?" shouted the two halfas.
"Yep. I suppose all three of us had secrets." smiled Raven.
"So, you're a witch?" asked Sam.
"No, i'm a bender of elements. I control earth, wind, water, fire, sound, light and dark." explained Raven.
"Woah, since when do you have these powers?" asked Sam becoming hysterical.
"I found out about them a few years ago. It was actually the summer I left for Montana I have no idea where they came from or why I have them. All I do know is that I try to do good with them." explained Raven.
For the next several hours, Danny, Sam and Raven sat in the park explaining everything to eachother. By the end of the night, Raven had become part of Team Phantom.
