The next morning, Danny and Clockwork were still sound asleep, when the ground below the tree started to shake rhythmically. It was a bunch of ghosts wearing policemen uniforms all led by the Ghost Zone's warden, Walker.

Ghosts: Hup, two, three, four

Keep it up, two, three, four

Hup, two, three, four

Keep it up, two, three, four

Hup, two, three, four

Danny woke up and gasped, as he said, "A parade of ghosts?"
Clockwork woke, but then groaned, as he said, "Oh no! Walker's dawn patrol again."
Danny slid down the tree onto the ground to get a closer look.

"Company…sound off!" Walker said.

Ghosts: Oh, the aim of our patrol

Is a question rather droll

For to march and drill

Over field and hill

The ghosts sounded off their guns.

Walker: Is a military goal!

Ghosts: Is a military goal!

With a hup, two, three, four

Dress it up, two, three, four

By the ranks or single file

Over every jungle mile

Danny got close enough and watched, as the ghosts marched past, before a young ghost girl, who was a few feet shorter than himself, followed. Her name was Penelope the 2nd. Named after his wife, Penelope Spectra.

Oh, we stamp and crush

Through the underbrush

Penelope sounded off her own gun along with the ghosts.

Penelope: In the military style!

Ghosts: In the military style!

Danny ran up to the ghost girl. She had Spectra's red hair in a military style bob cut, Walker's green eyes and facial expressions and her mother's powers plus body shape. She was wearing a uniform just like her father. Danny walked beside her, as he said,

"Hey. What are you doing?"
"Shh. I'm Drilling." Penelope said.
"Cool! Can I join you?" whispered Danny.
"Sure," Penelope said. "Just do what I do. But, don't talk in rank. It's against regulations...punk."
Danny got behind her and followed her lead as Walker said,
"To the rear…march!"
Danny and Penelope collided with each other, till she said,
"The other way punk."
Danny shifted himself and did just that.

Walker: Hup, two, three, four
Keep it up, two, three, four

"To the rear…ho!" Walker called. Penelope turned around, but Danny continued in the opposite direction, until he turned around quickly hurried back the other way, as Walker called, "Company…halt!"
Danny bumped into Penelope and fell over.
"That means 'stop,'" She said slowly, acting like the ghost boy was dumb in the head, causing Danny to frown at her.

"Company…left face!" Walker said, and all the elephants turned to the left to him. "March, march, march," A tall, red-haired female ghost wearing a red business suit, Penelope Spectra who was Walker's wife complained. "My feet are killing me."
Rubbing her feet from wearing the boots.
"I am putting in a transfer to another herd," Bullet whispered to her.
"Silence in the ranks," Walker ordered.
He walked to the back of the line and said,
"Dress up that line men."
The ghosts fixed their backs, except for Spectra.
"Pull it in, Penny," Walker said with a mischievous tone lightly smacking her butt with his hand, making her yelp and straighten, also giving him a quick peck on the cheek. He walked back to the front, before he yelled, "Inspection…arms!"
All the ghosts raised their guns, except for Danny.
"Stick your gun out," Penelope said to him.
Danny lifted his arms out like he was holding a gun and whispered to Penelope, "Like this?"
"That's right…Not bad for a newbie" Penelope said. Glancing at his posture.

Walker began his inspection. He looked at Bullets gun and noticed it was dusty and dirty.
"Tsk-tsk-tsk," Walker said. "Dusty muzzle. Soldier, remember in battle this gun can save your life. Take good care of it my man."
"Yes, sir," Bullet said.
Walker walked to the next ghost, who was chewing some ectoplasmic tobacco, and Walker cleared his throat, before he said, "Hmm. Let's have a little more spit and polish on that posture and get rid of that tobacco."
"Yes, sir," the ghost said after he spit out the tobacco.
"Espirit de Corps!" Walker said. "That's the way I earned my commission in the Maharaja's Ghost Brigade. Back in '88, or was it?"
Spectra sighed dramatically and groaned, "Here it comes, the Victoria Cross bit again."
Sure enough, Walker said, "It was then I received the Victoria Cross for bravery above and beyond the call of duty. Those were the days! Discipline. Discipline was the thing." He leaned on an ecto-energy pole, as he added,
"Builds character and all that sort of thing."
The pole broke, interrupting Walker. "Oh…where was I? Oh yes. Inspection."
He checked the next ghost and said,
"Well, very good."
The next ghost he came too had a big smile on his face, until he said,
"Wipe off that silly grin, soldier. This is the army." The ghost's face fell.

The next ghost Walker came to had a fly buzzing around his head. It landed on his nose and Walker crushed it with his baton, saying,
"Eyes forward!"
The ghost's eyes immediately shot forward. The next ghost had no helmet and had really messy hair. "Poorly," Walker said. "Lieutenant, that haircut is not regulation. It needs fixing,"
He cut the hair short into a buzz cut with a blast of ecto-energy said,
"There, that's better."
Then he went on, "And as for you-"
only to find on one was there, before he looked down and saw his daughter, and then said, "Oh, there you are. Hmmm. Let's keep those heels together, shall we, Penny?"
"Okay, dad," Penelope said, putting her heels together, "sir."
"That's better," Walker said, before he noticed Danny.
"Well, new recruit, eh?" He laughed, before he said, "I say, what happened to your uniform kid?"
He pushed Danny's chest with his pole, and Danny yelled, "Hey, watch it!"
Walker sputtered and said, "A human!" He picked Danny up from the arms and said, "Oh, this is treason! Sabotage! I'll have no human in my jungle!"
He set Danny down and he snapped, "Well, here's a newsflash for you, pal. It's not your jungle and I'm not fully human! I'm a hybrid!"

Clockwork arrived fast, saying, "Hold it! Hold it, I can explain, Walker."
"Warden Walker, Clockwork," Walker said to the Time Ghost.
"Of course Walker," Clockwork said. "The boy is with me. I'm taking him back to the human realm."
"To stay?" Walker said.
"You have my word Walker." Clockwork said.
"Good," Walker said. "And remember, a ghost never forgets." Danny pouted, as he turned to leave and said,
"Humph! I don't know what the army's coming to. These punks, who do they think they are?"
All of ghosts had been dozing, until Walker cleared his throat and said,
"Let's get on with it! Right face!" The ghosts turned, bumping into each other, as Walker called, "Forward…march!"
The ghosts began marching again and Spectra who was marching beside her husband, said,
"Dear, haven't you forgotten something?"
"Nonsense, Penny, old girl," Walker said. "A ghost never forgets."
"Oh really?" Spectra said slightly laughing at what he failed to see, before her demeanor change and she added, sternly, "Well, you just forgot our daughter."
"Ah, yes…" Walker said, before he realized and said, "Daughter? Daughter?" He turned to see Penelope talking with Danny, before he said, "Oh yes, quite right. To the rear…march!"
The ghosts turned and bumped into each other again, before they followed Walker back the way they came.

"When I grow up, I'm gonna be a warden," Penelope said to Danny. "Just like my-"
But she was cut off by Walker, who pulled her aside and said, "If I told you once, I've told you a thousand times-"
"Dad, look out!" Penelope said, seeing the ghosts marching towards him.
But, it was too late. A spectacular crash took place, and one ghost bonked into another and another, causing a domino effect.
"Gee, Pop," Penelope said, "you forgot to say halt!"
Danny laughed hysterically and said to Clockwork, "And he says a ghost like him never forgets."
He continued laughing, but stopped, noticing the glare Clockwork was giving him.
"It's not funny," Clockwork said. "Now, let's get out of here quick, before anything else happens."

He then glided off into the jungle, followed by Danny.
"Clockwork," Danny called, "where are we going?"
"You're going back to the human realm right now, we've waster enough time already." Clockwork said, as he began to cross a log. "Come now Daniel."
"I'm not going!" Danny snapped.
"Oh yes you are!" Clockwork said, as he turned around trying to keep his temper in check.
Danny grabbed onto a tree, as she said, "I'm staying right here."
Clockwork angrily stormed towards the hybrid, as he said, "You're going even if I have to over-shadow or drag you there every step of the way!"
Danny held onto the tree, as Clockwork tried to use the staff to use the energy to surround him and pull him back.
"Let go, you-" Clockwork said, as he continued to pull him back.
"You let go of me!" Danny said, only it he accidentally let out a bunch of sonic waves, making Clockwork lose his grip and fly backwards, landing in the water. After spitting out some water, Clockwork tried to get up, only to bonk his head on the log. That was the last straw.
"Oh, that does it!" Clockwork said. He got out of the water on the other side, as he said, "Daniel that is the last straw. From now on, you're on your own. Alone!"
"Yeah, well, don't worry about me," Danny snapped, as he turned and walked away.
