Chapter 4: Tale of the Reality Gauntlet

After the battle with Chad and the teenagers, Danny took Danielle and the three KND operatives to the op center. There Danny told the tale of how Freak Show managed to use this Reality Gauntlet to change reality so that he would rule the world by his own image. The three KND operatives were quite shocked now that Cree had stolen the book about the Reality Gauntlet and what Father could do.

"I knew something bad was going to happen" said Number 5, "we have to stop Father from retrieving this Reality Gauntlet."

"Well" said Danny, "he's going to be pretty mad once he realizes I was the one whom destroyed it."

"You mean this threat that Father created was all for nothing?" asked Number 4.

"I'm not entirely sure" replied Danny.

"I remember reading somewhere" said Sam, "that the Reality Gauntlet can regenerate itself back to its normal self and the three major gems that power it along with its source gems would be scattered across the globe."

Back at the island base, Father was quite pleased with the arrival of Chad, Cree and the squad of teenagers with them.

"Excellent" said Father as Cree handed the book on the Reality Gauntlet to him, "I can finally have the knowledge to make the world into my own image."

Father then puts on his reading glasses and begins to read about the Reality Gauntlet.

"Hmm, let's see" as Father continued to read the book, "this Reality Gauntlet is powered by the Source Gem and three other gems known as the Gem of Life, Form and Fantasy."

"Ah, yes" said Freak Show as he came into the scene, "it's starting to all come back to me. Sadly, I am doubting I'll or you'll ever find the Reality Gauntlet."

"Well how do you know it doesn't exist anymore?" asked Father.

"Well" replied Freak Show, "the last person whom had control of the gauntlet was the punk ghost boy known as Danny Phantom."

"Something isn't right here" replied Father, "if you are saying what could be true then that means that the Reality Gauntlet has been destroyed!"

"Well not really" said Freak Show as he looked in the book, "there seems to be some sort of a passage that states that the Reality Gauntlet can regenerate even when it has been destroyed."

"You mean the Reality Gauntlet isn't gone after all?" asked Father.

"Absolutely not" replied Freak Show, "and I can aid you in searching for the gauntlet along with the various gems that power it."

"Looks like your memory is coming back to you" said Father.

"And since we have your former ally Vlad Plasmius under your influence we shall have no trouble taking those gems and the gauntlet" added Freak Show.

"Well" said Father as he turned to Chad, Cree and the squad of teenagers, "what are you people waiting for? Go with Freak Show and retrieve the gauntlet and those gems already!"

"Y-y-yes Father" replied Chad and Cree as they left the scene with Freak Show.

"Excellent" said Father as he placed the book on the Reality Gauntlet down then he began to flare up his fire with joy, "soon I shall have the device that shall change the reality where snot noise kids can no longer be a threat to my rule and anyone else whom dares stand in my way!"

The scene then switches back to the op center where Numbers 1, 2 and 86 had arrived on the scene. Danny had repeated his tale about the Reality Gauntlet and of course the KND operatives were quite shocked of what the Reality Gauntlet really was.

"You mean to say that Father could very well be after this sort of device that can really alter the fabric of time and space itself!" cried Number 86.

"Apparently so" replied Danny, "Sam, Tucker and I just barely stopped Freak Show from doing the same thing, and it looks like Father could continue that trend."

"Then we must stop him at all costs" said Number 1, "if such a device like that can fall under Father's hands, he could delightfulize us kids including any rebellious teenagers like yourself whom don't follow the ways of Chad or Cree."

"But who would have such a device like that to begin with?" asked Danielle.

"Well" replied Number 1 to Danny, "you did say Freak Show escaped from the facility by the Guys in White where he had acquired this Reality Gauntlet."

"Those Guys in White really creep Number 5 out" said Number 5, "I mean they even were able to hack into our moon base system."

"Then I think before we go searching for Father" said Number 1, "we should head back to the main facility owned by the Guys in White to ask a few more questions."

A few minutes later, the head of the Guys in White was sitting on his office desk still reviewing the repair damages made by Cree in her job to help Father escape from his cell. Suddenly the lights went dark.

"Okay" said the head of the Guys in White, "what the heck is going on?"

"A good question" replied Number 1 as he appeared out of nowhere as the room started to become brighter.

"Okay kid" said the head of the Guys in White, "we assigned your organization and your sector to go after our fugitive Father and Freak Show."

"Look" said Number 1, "I'm not moving from this spot until you tell us about what this Reality Gauntlet is all about."

The head of the Guys in White had a strange look upon his face and placed the papers which he was reading on his desk, got up and walked toward the window of the room.

"The Reality Gauntlet" said the head of the Guys in White, "is that what you came for some information about that?"

"Of course" replied Number 1, "we were informed by a source that Freak Show when he first escaped from you people had the gauntlet in his possession and we would like to know how the heck you people got it."

"Well" said the head of the Guys in White, "long story short. A team of archeologists found the gauntlet in some unknown ruins. Since it was such sensitive material we were ordered to take the archeologists in for questioning and take the gauntlet for ourselves. We brought the gauntlet to Freak Show because there were rumors that he had information on how to use it. We thought it could be used for a weapon against the punk known as Danny Phantom."

"So what happens to the gauntlet once it is destroyed along with its gems that power it?" asked Number 1.

"Well" replied the head of the Guys in White, "it isn't proven yet, but we probably believe the gauntlet and the gems regenerate because of their magical powers. If you are trying to find this gauntlet and its gems before Father does, I think both of you are out of luck."

"That will be all for now" said Number 1.

As the head of the Guys in White turns around, Number 1 vanishes before his eyes. Back in Amity Park, Number 1 arrives on the scene along with Danny.

"Good thing you remained invisible during my interrogation with the head of the Guys in White" said Number 1.

"No problem" said Danny.

"We should probably search for those gems and the gauntlet" said Number 2, "where do you suppose where we should look?"

"I think my Rainbow Monkeys know where one of the gems could be located" replied Number 3.

"Oh no" replied Number 5, "girl you crazy."

"So where is the gem located?" asked Danny.

"I have been talking with my Rainbow Monkeys and they say there is a special gem on Rainbow Monkey island" said Number 3.

"Sounds like that Fantasy Gem" said Sam.

"Let's move out then" said Number 86.
