The scene switched back to the Muses.
"From that day forward, our boy Daniel could do no wrong." Dora smiled. "He was so hot, steam looked cool."
DORA:
Oh yeah!
Bless my soul
Danny was on a roll
DANI:
Person of the week
In every Greek opinion poll
EMBER:
What a pro
DORA:
Danny could stop a show
Point him at a ghost-monster
And you're talkin' S.R.O
He was a no one
ALL:
A zero
Zero
DORA:
Now he's a honcho
ALL:
He's a hero
Daniel had to deal with a ghostly warthog. He turned that warthog into a pork dinner (well, a pork dinner for ghosts) by firing an arrow powered with his ghost ray.
DANI:
He was a kid with his act down pat
ALL:
Zero to hero
In no time flat
Zero to hero
Vlad knocked aside his statuette of the warthog with irritation.
DORA:
Just like that
ALL:
When he smiled
The girls went wild
With oos and aahs
DANI:
And they slapped his face
On every vase
Ember hit Dani on the head with a scroll.
EMBER:
With every vahse!
Annoyed, Dani plopped the vahse over Ember's head.
ALL:
From appearance fees
And royalties
Our Danny had cash to burn
Now nouveau rich and famous
Daniel had become so famous that he got a giant statue of himself right in the middle of Thebes.
DORA:
He could tell you what's a Grecian urn
ALL:
Say amen
There he goes again
PENELOPE:
Sweet and undefeated
DESIRE:
And an awesome ten for ten
Daniel now defeated a ghostly lion by kicking it over a bar that was balanced on two poles.
ALL:
Folks lined up
Just to watch him flex
DANI:
And this perfect package packed a pair of pretty pecs!
Daniel now had become so famous that he had his own merchandise, including action figures. The action figures couldn't do everything he could of course, but along with flexing muscles they could shoot out his fists, which was a trick he had learned during one of his battles.
ALL:
Daniel he comes he sees he conquers
DORA:
Honey the crowds were goin' bonkers
Daniel now defeated a ghostly vulture by trapping it in an anti-ecto cage.
ALL:
He showed the moxie
Brains and spunk
EMBER:
Yeah!
An ectopus tried to attack Daniel and Frostbite as they were taking a boat ride on the ocean, but Daniel noticed it in time and fought it. Soon he had tied all the tentacles together, allowing him to bring it back to shore like a fishing trophy.
ALL:
From zero to hero
DANI:
A major hunk
ALL:
Zero to hero
Vlad, now growing furious, melted his statuette of the ectopus.
DORA:
And who'd have thunk?
Who put the 'glad' in gladiator?
ALL:
Daniel!
DESIRE:
Who's daring deeds are great theater?
ALL:
Daniel!
She wasn't kidding, companies started putting on plays about Daniel's heroic actions.
DESIRE:
Isn't he bold?
MURAL GUYS:
No one braver
EMBER:
Is he sweet?
ALL:
Our favorite flavor
What they meant was this new drink Daniel started sponsoring called Daniealldo (despite the name it wasn't alcoholic).
ALL:
Daniel!
Daniel!
DANI:
My man!
ALL:
Daniel!
Daniel hadn't forgotten his mortal parents Casper and Alma by the way. Along with cash (mostly for paying for the accidents he caused in the past) he sent them some merchandise, mostly vases and urns. They were obviously very proud of him, they even high-fived at one point.
ALL:
Daniel!
Daniel!
PENELOPE:
Look at my Daniel!
Daniel's popularity had become so great that even a new style of sandals had been named after him: Air-Dans.
Daniel!
Daniel!
Bless my soul
Danny was on a roll
Undefeated
Vlad now sent his ghost minotaur, his ghost griffon, and his ghost gorgon (fortunately her powers didn't work on other ghosts, meaning Daniel was safe) to attack Daniel but he just punched them away one at a time until they ended up on top of each other.
Riding high
DORA:
And the nicest guy
ALL:
Not conceited
He was a nothing
Zero zero
Now he's a honcho
He's our hero
Daniel even stopped a volcano from erupting by plugging it with a giant boulder.
He hit the heights at breakneck speed
From zero to hero
Vlad was so frustrated that he just did a headdesk and stayed there for a few minutes.
Danny is a hero
Yeah he's a hero
Daniel and Cujo now gained enough popularity to preserve their handprints (and pawprints) in cement.
"Yes indeed." Dora finished, smiling.
