This chapter might not be as good as the last one, so give your honest opinion here.

Enjoy


3 month earlier...

"...yes, it's finally completed." said a blonde man with a large build. Stood before him is a machine that has a glowing green core in the center. "With this ecto-energy, my machine will make me millions, and a daytime Emmy."

The man charged the machine, and placed himself inside a pod "It's showtime." He said as the machine starts.


Sept. 26th,- 9:10am- Fenton Residence.

Jazz wasn't sure if she could tell him.

Jazz and Danny used to talk about a lot of problems they have before their parents...disappearance. Either about Danny's girl problems, or Jazz's scholarship deals, they know a thing or two about each other.

But Jazz wasn't sure to tell him about this new 'job' offer she recently got last Monday. What will Danny react? She'll never live it down.

If only Mom were here, she'll know what to do.


In Danielle's room, on a Saturday morning for her. Sleeping in her comfortable bed, surrounded by her stuff animals and purple wallpaper.

"Danielle, breakfast is ready!" shout her brother, Danny, as he knocked on her bedroom door. Danielle got up and opened the door, only for it to hit Danny's face. "Hey! Watch where you opened that thing."

"Yeah, and you need to work on your poor grammar." Danielle shot back, "So, your working at the Amity News Station today?"

Danny replied "Yeah, I'm supposed to meet up with Harriet Chin, my boss for the station. She explicitly chosed me to take pictures on any sightings of Amity's mysterious hero."

"Are you only doing this because you need the money to help pay the house bills?" Danielle asked.

Danny looked at his little sister with concern and placed his hand on her head "Hey, you know how Jazz is doing the best she can to support us. Now it's my turn to help out, and help raise enough money to get you to a good college, 'cause I'm sure I won't."

"Your not going to college?" Danielle said, sounding shocked "What will Jazz think?"

"Actually, I'm not sure if I'm going to college or not, it depends on what situation we're in."


11:50- Amity News Station

The Amity News Station is around the city block on Amity. It is a large blue building that's around the corner of Quinten Ave. and Turner St.

Danny is now in the office of Harriet Chin, an Asian woman with raven like hair tied to a pony tail, and teal eyes. She wore a green, business suit that fits for her slip figure.

Harriet is looking through some photos of the Phantom hero that's been the talk around town "Well, Mr. Fenton, it seems that you have a knack to know when and where this white-haired hero is." She comments "I mean, look at this photo of him fighting some kind of genie woman." She looked at the picture of Phantom fighting Desiree.

'Desiree has been out of the radar for a while,' Danny thought to himself 'If she ever returns, I'll use the thermos to trap her in and ask questions.' "Thanks for the compliment, Ms. Chin. So will I have to look around and meet the news crew."

"Sure thing, Fenton." Harriet answered as she pressed the button on her phone "Janet, bring Lance Thunder to my office so he can meet our new photographer."


Lance Thunder is a blonde man with blue eyes and light tanned skin. He where's a blue suit that fits with his broad shoulders. He shows Danny around the station so the raven haired boy can be familiar with the building.

"Here at the Station, we've bring in the news by finding out the strange events and crime rate this city has to offer." Lance said, with a prideful tone "I may work as a weatherman, Daniel, but sometimes I can work on multitasking."

Danny respond "That sounds great and all, but I have to ask, is Thunder really your last name?"

Lance laughs and answers "Actually, it's just a stage name. My real name is Lance Thadius, but I've legally changed it to Lance Thunder." The two stops as Lance looked at his watch "Well, look at the time, I should be at the studio so I can predict the weather, which I'm always right, see ya later, Danny." He waves off as he walk towards the door that reads 'Studio 6'.

Danny looked at the back of the weatherman and noticed something was off about him. 'There's something about this weatherman that I can't put my finger on it.'


"Hello, I'm Lance Thunder, here today to give you the weather." Lance said while he shows the weather bullitun "As you can see, it's going to be windy out in the afternoon, strong winds perhaps. Also it will be 60 degrees out if you live in the urban neighborhoods. This is Lance Thunder, back to you, Tiffany."

As the camera focuses on the anchorwoman, Lance Thunder left the studio, on his way to the make up department. Once he got there, his eyes were, for a second, turn red.

Later in the afternoon, the quiet neighborhoods received a strong wind storm.


Sept. 28th- 9:10am- Casper High

"Did you hear about the new school therapist today?" Tucker asked.

Danny looked at his beret wearing friend with confusion "We have a school therapist?"

"Well apparently, principal Ishiyama wants the students to see free therapy due to an uproar from parents about the Shadows incident." Sam answered, as the trio walked towards the hall and passed a couple of students who were chatting about the therapist.

"Man, that new school therapist sure can read you like a book." Said the red headed boy.

The black haired nerdy girl reply "Yeah, Ms. Fenton is a great listener when I tell her about my family problems."

At the moment, Danny froze. Ms. Fenton? There isn't anyone with that name other than...


"You've got to be shitting me!" Danny yelled inside the newly office of Ms. Jazz Fenton, school therapist.

"Danny, watch your language." Jazz warned with a concern tone, she knew he would be mad "Look, I know your angry, but I need this job."

"Of all the jobs, why here?" Danny asked hysterically.

Jazz rubbed her temple and answered his question "I got a phone call from Principal Ishiyama, she told me about the incident about the school and sinse she read my history as a psychology major from Amity U. Sinse then, I became this school's official psychiatrist." She gave a nervous smile and added "At least the pay is well."

Danny wasn't angry or furious, but shocked as well. He sighs and told his sister "Jazz, I'm not angry at you, I'm just glad that you've found a job, even if its here in my school. To think I got a job at the news station just to help you, hell, I was considering not going to college for Danielle's sake."

"Wait, your willing to not go to college, just so you can help support Danielle?" Jazz asked, shocked about her brother's decision.

Danny replied "It depends on how dire the situation works for us. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to get to class." Danny exit out of the office, leaving Jazz alone in her office.

Jazz sighs on the back of her chair, and looked through at her desk. She grabbed a picture frame of what appears to be, the last family portrait, before their parents disappeared.

Her mom and Dad were smiling at the camera, while that the bottom is where a 17 year old Jazz is beside mom, who looked down nervously at Danielle, who punched Danny in the arm while he's in the middle, while she's in the left in front of her Dad.

Jazz couldn't help but smiled at the picture and sigh "I missed those days."


10:20am- Amity News Station

Lance Thunder wasn't feeling well. He was in his make up room to cover some...interesting features on his face.

His blue eyes are now turned red, his once tanned skin has become a shade of pale green, and his blonde hair has turned platinum.

"What is happening to me?" He said, as he sees green veins popping from his forehead and neck. He felt tired and aggitated, he looked at the machine, which is stored in the corner of the room, posing as a heater so no one would asked questions.

He heard a knock on the door "Mr. Thunder, your on at 5" said one of the station's video crew.

"I'll be down in a minute." Lance yelled back, coughing up something. He covered his mouth as he cough, and looked at the palm of his hand and finds what appears to be not blood.

It was green ectoplasm.

Lance Thunder then starts glowing green, his skin is changing into completely green, his eyes are completely red with black circles around.

It was then, a storm is coming.


10:30am

At school, Danny was slouching on his desk during his teacher's lecture on how the Earth's weather works.

But at this moment, noises from outside can be heard and the students and teacher took notice what's going outside. When they looked out the window, they saw a heavy hail storm falling out of the clouds. But the hail, the size of baseballs, were glowing green.

'A hail storm? In late September?' Danny thought.

Suddenly, the hail storm changed into a blizzard. The students are puzzled by the change of weather, but their thoughts turned to panic when they saw a glowing green monster with lightning bolt shaped horns, blazing red eyes, a black spandex sleevelss top, green skin, and a green tornado swirling from his torso. The monster appears to be on top of the Amity News Station building, causing some chaotic storm.

The teacher yelled out "Everyone, go to the gym for shelter, it looks like a storm is coming through!"

The students screamed and panic as they got out of the door. But Danny was still in the classroom, as everyone left, he go ghost and changed into his ghostly alter ego. He flew out of the window and head towards the monster that's causing all this.


10:55am

Danny Phantom flew towards the news building, facing against the ghostly monster before him. "Okay, I'm dealing with some weather ghost that's causing disaster in my town." Danny stated, "But he seems unstable."

The giant, red eyed ghost raised his arm and shoots lightning bolts at Phantom, which electrocutes him and fall down towards a billboard that advertises Vladcorps.

The monster turned to Danny, he was about twice as big as Danny, and gave him a warning "I'm the master of weather, a creature that shall show the world my art! And I shall received that Daytime Emmy for it that I, Lance Thunder, shall bring the storm to Amity!"

"Lance Thunder...?" Danny repeated, so his suspicion was right "How the hell did he became a ghost?"

Lance reached his arm towards the shattered part of the building and reached out the machine from the make-up department. "My Vortex power enhancer has given me the powers to control the weather! For 3 months I've given the weather as how I predict, just for fame! No more wrong predictions! And it's all thanks to the ecto-energy that grants me, Vortex, this power!" His laugh echoes from the sky.

Danny looked at the machine, then at Vortex "The things people do to get famous these days." He muttered. "Looks like I have to bring in the big guns."

Using his ecto-energy inside his body, Danny's hands starts to glow blue energy orbs. His whole body starts to glow bright blue. He raised both of his hands and blue ecto energy orb appears in the palm of his hands.

"Blue Mist Beam!" He called it.

Phantom's hands shoot out a large blue beam of light towards Vortex, which creates a hole in his chest. Vortex screamed out of agony, as his ghostly tail starts disenterating, meaning he's going back to the Ghost Zone.

Vortex screamed, which echoed the entire town, and the chaotic storm starts to calm down. The clouds moved to sunny and bright, the streets are drenched from the rain. Vortex, once was Lance Thunder, disappeared from the human realm.

'I guess Lance was just a weak ghost.' Danny thought, as he sees the big hole on the news station building, and then he looked down and saw the machine, crashed to the streets. Danny hovered down towards the machine and blast it to pieces 'To think, a machine like that will cause someone to do anything to be rich.' But Phantom spotted something glowing, he crouch down and picked up the glowing object, which appears to be a green orb.

'This orb must be its core, and has so much ecto-energy in it. Whoever gave it to him, must've expected this to happened, but now I must go back to the school, Jazz must be worried sick about me.' Danny Phantom flew off and headed towards the school.


11:40am

Danny flew back inside the school and hide at the janitor's room. He shifts back to Danny Fenton and gets out of the janitors room. He looked around and saw the halls are empty, meaning the students were sent home. Danny then goes to see where his sister and his friends are, only to be bumped into the former.

"Danny!" Jazz shouted, glaring at her brother "Where have you been? Do you know how worried sick I was when I didn't find you at the gym?!"

Danny, feeling guilty of this, gave her a respond "I'm sorry, Jazz. I-I got lost and I, uh hid inside the janitor's room." He lied.

But Jazz, looking both angry and worried, gave Danny a tight hug, and tears starts falling from her eyes "I'm just glad that your safe." She said, and then whispered "I don't want to lose you, ever again." Danny's eyes widened in realization, he knew what she meant.


Flashback

In the Amity Hospital, Danny Fenton is seen, laying on the bed with a breathing mask on him, and is still in a state in shock.

Jazz and Danielle, Danny's sisters, were in the waiting room to wait for the results of their brother. The doctor came in and told Jasemine about his critical conditions.

"Your brother is getting the best treatment we can offer, but I'm afraid that his condition is so dire, we may have to keep him here...for a few more months."

Funny, a few months can ended up half a year.


6:05pm

It was dinner time for the Fenton siblings, after the storm, the news was on about the mysterious ghost hero that defeated a monster that caused the weather.

"So, you've takened shelter in your school, Danielle?" Jazz asked her little sister.

"Yeah, but I wasn't scared at all, you know how tough I am from things like this." Danielle boosted.

Danny responded "Funny, I remember you being scared of a little cockroach when you were 4." Danielle punched him in the arm.

Danny's ghost senses were off, covering his mouth, he got up from the table and excuse himself "Uh, I gotta go to the bathroom." He ran off quickly as he can, so his sisters won't suspect a thing.

As Danny heads towards the bathroom, he closed the door and tries to go ghost, but his mouth was covered by a green, ghostly hand. Danny looked up and saw Desiree.

"Don't speak, child. I just came to tell you that my contractor knows your secret, and I have come here to tell you that I'll be returning to the Ghost Zone. But I must warn you about what's going to happened in the near future. I won't tell you who's my contractor, but I will have to asked, why do you protect these mortals in this realm of the living?" Desiree asked the raven haired boy.

Danny looked at Desiree for the moment, and whispered something in her hear, giving her the answer she wants. Desiree's eyes widened and gave a small smile "I see, very well then, I'm off to the Ghost Zone." Then, she disappeared in a purple mist, leaving Danny alone.

"Man, would Sam be pissed if she figured out that I was with a ghost woman in the bathroom." Danny joked, then changed to sincere "But that contractor Desiree mentioned knows who I am, so I have to be careful about where I go ghost."


So that was a heartfelt chapter, wasn't it? Though to be honest, it felt a little rushed, but I did have fun writing.

Here's a preview for next chapter:

During a school field trip to Vladcorps, Danny has encountered Vlad Masters, meanwhile Sam sneaks through the Vladcorps building, only to find something shocking about the Vladcorps, and Vlad himself.
