Chapter 6: Phantom meets Nitro, Nitro meets Steele

"Come on, Nitrous! What's the matter?" A tan skinned male with curly black hair and brown eyes taunted a pale skinned male with brown hair and hazel eyes as the brown haired male lay on the floor.

"…" He was eerily silent. "Come on, James, get up!" A female with black hair and brown skin cried out as the man continued to lay there. The current situation was dire for the male. He was only 17 and most of his allies had been shot by this man.

He groaned in pain as he curled upwards into a sitting position. He gripped his chest as his own gunshot wound continued to make him bleed. But he did something no one expected, He laughed. Everyone that wasn't shot looked at him funny. He got shot, but he was laughing?

"Oh, Ron. You are so naïve. You think your stronger than everyone here? You thought you could try and kill everyone I cared about to prove a point?" He stood up slowly and cracked his points despite the pain. Then, he snapped his fingers. Everyone; a dirty blonde with curly hair and green eyes stood up holding his arm, the two black males behind Ron stood up and supported each other. The other members of Ron's Team, whom he had shot himself, stood up; a bald and tall white male, a redheaded female who was being held by said man, a chubby white male and his girlfriend supported each other as they stood. Ron was in disbelief; they should be dead.

"You're a bad shot, Ron." The male said as he unsheathed the sword on his back. It was a regular sword imbued with various energies.

"Let's finish this!" The two charged at each other and the brunette male slashed once and Ron fell to his knees. The brunette was at his limit; he couldn't push any more. He smiled as he passed out from blood loss.

"Hey, James. Get up." James Nitro winced as he heard his friend's voice. He opened his eyes and turned to see the bald man sitting in a chair, he looked like he was glaring but James knew, Jason Exren was full of concern for his friend. He also noticed Jason had bandages around his right arm. James sighed and asked, "You took me here after I passed out huh?" Jason nodded and said, "Yeah, the idiot in now in jail for attempted murder and you've been asleep for 5 days, a lot has happened though."

"Like?" "Danny Phantom had just enrolled in the school, along with some of his friends and his fiancé." James was surprised, "R-really? Phantom is here?" James was a long time Phan since he had shown up.

"Yeah, but he's also Danny Fenton." Danny said as he appeared in James' room in human form, startling both James and Jason. Jason sighed, "Danny, Don't do that! You may be half-ghost but you can't just scare people who aren't used to that!"

Danny smiled nervously and said, "Sorry, but James, your grandpa wants to talk to you. Are you ready to see him?" James got off the bed and stood without a problem. He took off all the wires and tubes attached to him and walked up to Danny. He found he was taller than Danny.

"Let's go." He said as he walked out of the infirmary with Danny and Jason in tow. James walked over to the elevator and showed his ID. The guards let him and his friends through. James pushed the 4th floor button and the elevator rose up.

Once the elevator reached the top floor, James walked out and towards the Director's Office. He opened the door and found an old man with his hair balding on the top wearing a white lab coat, black shirt and black pants standing in front of his desk talking to a ghost that kept changing from old man, to baby, to adult then old man. "Ah, James." His Grandfather acknowledged his presence, the ghost spoke, "I am Clockwork, Master of Time, James Nitrous. I have a gift for you. Please, hold out your sword."

James drew his sword and Clockwork held out his staff. Soon ghostly energy poured into the sword and began to change it. It now resembled, to Danny's eyes, James Phantom's sword. However, the blade was now crystal white.

James held his sword and then sheathed it. Clockwork turned to Danny, "Don't worry, my apprentice, your enrollment has been completed as has your friends."

Clockwork took his leave via portal.

"Now, Daniel Phantom, I want you to go to your friends and hand out their ID's. I know you already formed Team Phantom but I want you to ally with Team Regeki, James' team." Director Nitrous said to Danny. He looked at Jason, "You and all the other members of Team Mentai must have a new leader within 3 days or your team will be disbanded…have you chosen?" "We chose the moment Ron shot James, sir. James is our new leader. We're joining Team Regeki." James faced his friend and looked at him with eyes of surprised, "You guys want to join Team Regeki?" He asked, Jason smirked, "Yeah, I mean, Ron was an ass. He treated everyone like shit and took all the credit."

"True, but why me?" "You helped us all where Ron decided to screw us over. That's why as of today, the members of Team Mentai are officially joining Team Regeki."

James smiled and nodded, "Welcome, you all won't regret this." He turned to Danny, "Can I count on you, your friends and your allies to help us when we need it?"

Danny nodded sternly and both heroes shook hands.

The time for Team Phantom and Team Regeki to meet has come. In the café on the 2nd floor of the school, James Nitro and James Phantom were just standing there looking at each other. To everyone else, both Phantom and Nitro looked more or less like each other. Nitro had brown hair and hazel eyes and whereas Phantom in human form had blue eyes and brown hair, while Phantom had a face like Danny and could pass of for his twin, He looked like Nitro as well.

"So, you're Danny's future kid?" Nitro pieced it together after few minutes. Phantom nodded, "Yeah." "Then why do you look and sound like me?" Phantom and the rest of Team Phantom paled.

"Whatever, if you don't wanna tell me, I understand. But, we're gonna have to call James something else to avoid confusion." Danny nodded and thought for a minute before James Phantom spoke up, "Steele."

"Steele?" Jenni, Nitro's third in command, asked the halfa.

"Yeah. Semas Steele and Phantom Steele. To me, it has an odd ring to it." The halfa explained.

Everyone nodded and Semas yelled, "Phantom On!" The rings that normally appeared around Danny appeared around Semas changing him into Phantom Steele. Everyone on Team Regeki gasped as they had only seen Danny change into Phantom.

Steele was now wearing a black trench coat, white shirt with a black PS on it, white pants with a black belt and black boots. He also wore his sword on his right side.

"Alright, Time to rock!"

The Observers were looking through the window invisible to the Teams. They knew this was not good and they have to speed up their plans!

Ugh, not my best chapter…maybe something special is in order.
