Chapter Eight: The King is Gone!
It was the next day, Saturday, and out heroes were at Danny's house trying to figure out what had happened yesterday. They sat in the living room and began to talk about what they already knew.
"Ok, so we know that Skulker, Walker and Technus were mysteriously missing at the time that the incidents occurred. We also know that they all happened at the same time and in areas that were heavily populated. So what does that tell us?" said Danny, as Cujo sat in his lap.
"That this is more then just a coincidence?" said Tucker.
"Exactly, so we have a good idea that this was a planned move, now the question is who planned it?" said Danny.
"Maybe they were working together, they did all seem mad with what you said to them the last time you saw any of them." said Sam.
"I don't know, none of them seem smart enough or willing enough to work together. They would more likely work separately to destroy you." said Valerie.
"Yeah, someone else must have brought them together and come up with the plan." said Alicia.
"The question is who could it be?" said Alex.
"Hmm, maybe it was Youngblood?" said Tucker.
"Nah, he's too much of a child to get them to listen to him." said Danni.
"How about Desiree?" said Valerie.
"Nah, last I heard she hadn't gone evil again, plus she would use her wishing power to mess with us if she did go evil." said Danny.
"Hmm, it can't be Johnny 13 and Kitty because they aren't the evil master mind type.
"Master mind? Master? Masters!" said Danny.
"What about Masters?" said Sam.
"I think I know who it is. Who do we know that is always planning evil plots, wants to take over both worlds, and has a huge grudge against us? " said Danny.
"The only person we know who is like that is…Vlad." said Valerie.
"Exactly." said Danny.
"I can't believe that we didn't see this before, of course Vlad is the only one strong enough and sneaky enough to get those three idiots to work together." said Sam.
"Now the question is what is he going to do next, what is his plan?" said Danny.
"Hmm, knowing Vlad it probably involves conquering the human and ghost worlds." said Danni.
"That's what we have to find out." said Danny.
But before they could work further on this idea a special news bulletion appeared on the TV which had been one the whole time.
"This is Tiffany Snow with a live action bulletin. A pack of ghost wolfs is attacking Amity Park near the warehouse district. Panicking workers are reported to be running for their lives from the ghostly wolfs. The police are asking that all citizens stay inside until the situation is under control." said the news anchorwomen.
"It looks like we'll have to figure it out later, we better got take care of this problem." said Danny.
So our heroes went to fight the ghosts that were attacking the warehouse district. As they flew off they did not know that they were being watched.
"Hey boss, the brat and his friends have just left the house and our heading your way." said Blade into a communicator, one of Vlad minions.
"Excellent, your job is done now, go back to the Ghost Zone until I need you again." said Vlad.
"Ok boss." said Blade, he then left and went through the Fenton Portal.
Meanwhile Danny and his friends arrived in the warehouse district. It was completely empty due to the mass evacuation that had taken place earlier. The police had cordoned off the area and no one was allowed in until the police decided on a plan of attack. This meant that our heroes would be alone and able to take care of the problem without anyone being hurt.
"Ok, where could those ghost wolves be?" said Danny.
Suddenly the pack of ghost wolves ran right by our heroes.
"Well that was easy." said Tucker.
"Yeah, lets round them up." said Valerie.
But as they moved closer the wolves noticed them and sensing danger they split up.
"Why do they always have to run away?" said Sam.
"Ok guys, split up, we need to catch those wolves before anyone gets hurt." said Danny.
So our heroes split up, with Danny heading towards some of the older, abandoned warehouses. As Danny flew he did not realize that he was being watched. He made his way through the run down and spooky alleyways. Suddenly he was grabbed from behind and phased into one of the buildings. Danny quickly broke out of the grasp of the ghost that had grabbed him and turned to come face to face with Vlad.
"Vlad! I knew it had to be you, what are you up to, I know that you were responsible for the disasters that took place in the Ghost Zone." said Danny with hate in his voice for the older halfa.
"So you figured it out that quickly did you? Well that is another good reason for me to eliminate you." said Vlad.
"What are you up to Vlad?" said Danny.
"Well I'm going to tell you exactly what I am up to. I am planning to place the Earth and Ghost Zone at each others throats." said Vlad.
"Your going to start a war? But how the heck are you going to do that?" said Danny.
"Well I am planning to convince each world that the other is going to attack them. Once they have decimated each other I will take over both worlds." said Vlad.
"And what makes you think I'll let you get away with it?" said Danny.
"Because you won't be around to stop me." said Vlad.
Then suddenly the door to the warehouse was blow down and through it several GIW agents ran into the building.
"Freeze Ghosts! By the authority of the Anti-Ghost Act, section 3, subsection 9, amendment G, you are under aresst!" said Agent W.
"And here are the fools that will make sure you aren't around, so long Daniel." said Vlad as he phased through the floor.
"Now guys, can't we settle this in a…" began Danny, but then one of the agents captured him in a net.
"Danny Phantom, you are arrested for planning a invasion of the Earth, you have the right to remain dead, anything you say, and even things you don't say will be used against you in a secret court." said Agent W.
"What invasion, what is going on?" said Danny.
"Don't play dumb with me ghost, now your coming with us." Said the agent as some more agents dragged Danny away.
"Wait! Your making a huge mistake, this is a set up!" said Danny.
Then the worst thing that could have happened happened. One of the agents used the shocking device on the net, knocking Danny out and causing him to turn back to human.
"Sir, look at this." said the agent holding the net.
"Hmm, now isn't this interesting, well we'll look into it later, right now we have to get him back to headquarters in Washington." said Agent W as they threw the unconscious Danny into the back of a van.
Danny was then driven off from the warehouse, and none of his friends knew what had happened to him.
It was several hours later and our heroes had come back to Danny's house after looking for him all over Amity Park. After they had taken care of the wolves they had noticed that they had not seen Danny the whole time. They had exhaustively searched the city looking for him. They had even used Cujo to try'en sniff out where Danny was, but it was no use.
They sat down in the house, with Sam in tears at the lose of Danny.
"Where could Danny be!" said Sam, crying.
"Don't worry my lady, I am sure the King will be found soon." said The Fright Knight, who had shown up looking for Danny awhile ago.
"But what if something happened to him?" said Sam.
"Danny's tough, I'm sure he's fine and will be home soon." said Valerie.
"I hope so, I don't know what I would do if something happened to him." said Sam.
It was then that Maddie and Jack came in, everyone looked at them but the look on their faces said nothing of good news.
"We still can't find Danny, and we looked everywhere." said Jack.
"Oh Jack, what could have happened to our baby boy?" said Maddie as tears came to her eyes.
"Don't worry Maddie, he's a Fenton, and Fenton's are tough, we will find him soon." said Jack.
It was at that moment that a news bulletin came on the TV, which had been on in the background the whole time.
"This is a special news bulletin, we have just received word that the Guys in White have captured the famous ghost, Danny Phantom. Now we go live to their headquarters in Washington D.C." said Tiffiny Snow as the camera changed to a press conference room.
"I stand before you to announce that at long last we have captured the ghost known as Danny Phantom." said Agent D, the official GIW spokesmen.
Instantly there were many hands in the air from the reporters. The agent pointed at one of the reporters and he asked his question.
"Why capture Danny Phantom? He has saved the Earth several times." said the Reporter.
"It has recently come to this organizations attention that this was all a ruse to get us to trust him. We learned from an anonymous amateur ghost hunter that Danny Phantom recently took over the dimension of ghosts known as the Ghost Zone and was planning a invasion of the Earth." said Agent D.
"Are you sure of this information?" said the reporter.
"We are certain that this information is accurate, we have also begun to prepare for a massive ghost invasion of the Earth. There is one last thing we have also found out. The ghost known as Danny Phantom is not a full ghost, he is actually half ghost half human." said the agent, the reporters gasped and began to frantically call for attention, finally one was allowed to ask the obvious question.
"Who is the human half of Danny Phantom?" said the reporter.
"We have identified him as Danny Fenton, son of Jack and Maddie Fenton." said Agent D as he showed a picture to the reporters and cameras.
"Oh this is so not good." said Danni as they stared dumb struck at the exposure of Danny.
It was at that moment that the door was busted in and the GIW began to swarm into the house.
"Freeze! Your under arrest for collaborating with a know ghost criminal" said the head agent.
"Jack! Run for it! I'll take care of these goons." said Maddie.
"But Maddie I can't leave you." said Jack.
"No buts, now go!" said Maddie as she used her martial arts skills to hold the agents at bay.
With one last look at his wife Jack quickly herded the kids into the basement along with the Fright Knight. This left Maddie alone with the agents, and she was mad as heck.
"I'll show you what happens to people who harm my baby boy." said Maddie.
Maddie flipped into the air and landed in the middle of a group of agents, and with a series of quick jabs and punches brought them all down. Two agents tried to charge her but were knocked into the walls with a powerful karate kick. Another one tried to grab her from behind but she flipped him over here shoulder, knocking down two more agents in the process. Finally one of the agents had the brains to pull out their organization issued tazers and shot it at her. Maddie screamed as the electricity shot through her body and she fell unconscious.
"The female is down, move out and capture the rest of them." said the head agent.
Meanwhile in the basement Jack was helping the kids, including Cujo and David get into the Specter Speeder mark two.
"Ok kids, get into the Spector Speeder and get into the Ghost Zone." Said Jack.
"What about you Dad?" said Danni.
"I have to stay here and help your mother, maybe we can buy you some time." said Jack, suddenly a group of agents ran down the stairs.
"Stop right there!" said the agents as they drew their weapons.
"Now go!" said Jack as he pushed Danni into the speeder and hit the ignition button.
The speeder's rockets fired and it zoomed through the open door into the Ghost Zone, which shut behind it.
"Jack Fenton, you are under arrest for helping a know ghost criminal, please come quietly." said one of the agents.
"You'll never take me copper!" said Jack as he tried to barrel through the agents to reach Maddie.
The agents were much quicker to pull out their tazers on Jack, and it took three of them to bring down the massive man.
"Agent W, we have captured Jack and Maddie Fenton, but their younger daughter has gotten away along with the ghost kids friends." said the head agent.
"I also hate to report that we did not find their eldest daughter as well, but at least we captured the two adults. Bring them into headquarters for questioning." said Agent W.
"Right away sir." said the agent as they dragged Jack to the van outside.
