A/N: This would have been up earlier, but I lost internet connection for a while, and I had to mind the dog, then Britains Got Talent came on and I really had to watch it! But here it is. The ending. And sorry I suck at writing fight scences. I'm working on getting better at them though. :D And it's like 12:38 in the night, and I'm really really tired. So G'night!
Secret of the Phantom Redone Chapter 9
Danny shivered, and figured that he better get back down to the awaiting classroom. He had been sitting there for a while now, and wasn't sure how people were reacting at the moment. Turning intangible he flew down towards English class.
"Danny, you came back!" Sam shouted running up to him.
"Yeah, why wouldn't I?" Danny asked stopping right at the edge of the window.
"I don't know, maybe because of me?" Purred a voice, Danny instantly recognised who it was. Vlad. Danny looked around the classroom; only now taking in what a state the classroom was in.
"What have you done Plasmius?" Danny growled. Looking at the upturned desks and chairs guarding students and Mr Lancer, all had a look of fear on their face.
"Oh, I don't know. Maybe I've come to destroy you" Plasmius said lightly as if it was nothing, something you see everyday.
"I hate you" Danny said venomously.
"I'd already gathered that" Plasmius said pulling one of the students out from behind one of the upturned desks and turning back to Danny. Danny recognised the girl from the book debate this morning. Lucy, he thought, thinking back, remembering her name. Her long red hair flailing around behind her.
"Let her go Plasmius" Danny growled.
"Make me" Plasmius growled. Danny looked into the eyes of the frightened girl, her eyes silently pleading for her life not to end here. Plasmius was firing up a ghost ray, Danny becoming instantly alert.
"Don't do it Plasmius" Danny warned. He looked on sorry to the kid. He had other things he wanted to say to the man, but he knew that talking too much could be the end of this girl's life. Danny suddenly turned invisible and ran towards the girl as fast as his legs could let him, even though they were only the other side of the room, any wrong moment and Plasmius could shoot without hesitation. He got there and knocked the girl out of Plasmius' arms, but Danny instead got blasted with the ray, crying out in pain, him and Lucy rolled across the floor, Lucy crawling back to her friends, sobbing openly.
"You're sick you know that Plasmius" Danny growled. Danny looked around expecting to see Plasmius, but he was nowhere in sight. Danny got ready for the blast that was sure to come.
He waited 30 seconds, still nothing. How long a minute or two Danny didn't know. He kept his senses clear for any signs of movements. Listening closely, he felt the pressure in the air move to his right, he turned putting his arms up to block the attack, Plasmius got round his guard and punched Danny right in the jaw. Hearing a cracking noise from Danny's jaw Plasmius smiled in success. Danny cried out in pain and held onto his jaw. Danny couldn't concentrate properly, his focus blurred with tears of pain.
Danny not waiting for an opening, knew he had to do something and ran up to Vlad and punched him in the gut with all his might, but Plasmius just acted like nothing had happened just then, winding Danny up, he got ready to attack with a ghost ray enforced punch. He tried again, and got some success himself. Vlad doubled over in pain, whilst blood dipped down from Danny's knuckle.
"Danny!" Sam shouted running back to him.
"Sam, get back there, this isn't finished yet," Danny said.
"I can help," She said.
"Not at the moment" Danny growled.
"When then?" Sam asked angrily, distracting Danny. This was Vlad's chance to get back at Danny. He crept up to Danny, everyone in the classroom to scared at the ghost to warn him. And Vlad grabbed Danny's arm-twisting it back. Danny gritted his teeth, not letting Vlad see him in pain.
"So how does this feel Daniel?" Vlad purred.
"I don't feel nothing at all," Danny said through gritted teeth.
"You sure?" He asked, twisting Danny's arm even more. Danny grunted, trying to keep from screaming out. Vlad had a sick and twisted smile playing on his face, his long white fangs sticking out on his lower lip. He was resisting the urge to laugh out loud, looking at Daniel's face twisted with pain.
"Danny, let me help" Sam shouted.
"No, I'm fine, I can handle it" Danny said.
"No you can't though. Look at yourself, stop trying to rescue everyone yourself just for one minute" Sam reasoned.
"Sam, I don't want you to get hurt," He said, making Vlad twist on his arm more, this time though he screamed out. Earning a smile of pleasure from Vlad. He was picturing all the things he could do to Danny, if he would let himself be in pain for these people who mean nothing to him, what could he get Danny to do, with his most precious people in captive with him.
Vlad was too busy dreaming of possibilities, that he didn't notice Danny's body swinging around, snapping Danny's arm, but giving Danny the ability to kick Vlad where it hurt the most, and boy did a ghost powered kick there hurt. Vlad fell to the floor in pain, as Danny cradled his broken arm. Tears of pain freely leaking down his face.
"What did you do that for, Danny?" Sam shouted annoyed that her best friend snapped his arm, just to get at his enemy.
"It had to be done Sam" Danny said wincing as though every breath hurt his arm.
"No it didn't, if you had let us help, you wouldn't be like that," Sam shouted.
"And how were you going to help Sam?" Danny shouted back.
"I don't know, but I would have thought of something" Sam shouted back.
"I need to end this" Danny said walking away to in front of the desks. "Listen, you guys need to cover your ears, this could hurt"
"Your not going to use that are you?" Tucker asked.
"It's the only way" Danny's self sacrificing side was taking over him, he knew he would have to take a break from ghost hunting after this, but he knew if he had to, he would go back to ghost fighting in an instant. It was still lesson one, and what an interesting lesson it had turned out to be.
Danny turned around to face Vlad, who was slowly getting up from the blow he took. Danny knew for sure, he wouldn't be able to hold ghost form after this, but everyone knew his secret know, so he didn't care.
Danny smiled, and breathed in a breath, taking in as much oxygen as he could, and let it out, releasing his ghostly wail. Some people who hadn't listened to Danny now knew why he had said it and covered their ears from the menacing wail that was racing towards the ghost in middle of the room.
The waves coming off of the attack took Vlad by surprise, sending him flying into the wall; he was writhing in pain, his eardrums bursting from the noise. Two black rings formed around him. Vlad turned invisible and intangible so that no one would be able to see his real identity and flew as fast as his weakened form would let him. Only managing to get on top of a building not too far away before passing out on top of a building, black rings separating to reveal his alter ego, Vlad Masters.
Danny kept on going, even though he knew that Vlad had gotten away, soon enough, Danny ran out of energy and the wail ended, much to the relief of the students. Danny smiled weakly before passing out, letting a white ring form, and separate going in opposite directions, showing Danny's other half, his arm mangled and pointing in a way that should have been possible. At least you're not in pain at the moment Sam thought and walked up to Danny, moving his broken arm into a more comfortable position.
"Mr Lancer, I think we need an ambulance?" Sam said, breaking the students and teacher out of their stupor.
"Yes, yes" Lancer said, still half dazed reaching into his pocket and reaching out his cell phone, dialling 9-1-1.
"You did it again Danny, you gave yourself up for us" Sam said. As students around the classroom seeing that it was safe began emerging from behind, not knowing to be scared or happy. Scared that they had almost just been killed, or happy to have witnessed one of Danny Phantom's fights. Something in which they would brag about for the rest of their lives. Obviously leaving out the fact that they had almost just wet their trousers.
(One week later)
Danny had been out of the hospital three days now. His broken arm in plaster and in a sling, one side of his face decorated with a bruise and a plaster. Yep, this is what Danny had expected. The doctors said, that he just exhausted himself and had broken his arm and jaw, which would heal up in a couple of weeks. And was told to leave the ghost fighting to his parents. Period.
Danny was currently getting ready for school. He didn't want to go, but was in no mood to be bothered with hiding, since he knew he was going to end up going there, just like the last time. He just hoped that this time, he wouldn't have to deal with Vlad, or any other ghost today. Since he had entrusted his parents and his friends with the responsibility of the town and it's ghosts.
He finished eating his breakfast and went to get his bag ready for school. After gathering everything he needed he said bye to his Mom.
"See you later, hon, don't worry about the ghosts, your Father and I will deal with them. Have a good day," She shouted back as Danny left the house, where his best friends were waiting for him. Nodding to them, they started back for school.
"Your going to get raped" Was the only thing Sam said. After a moment though, they were all laughing their heads off at that. "Your easier to get at now that your all banged up like you are" She added as an after thought. The thought did creep Danny out, and by all means, was praying to the Heavens that he would not get raped today.
"How do you think everyone is going to act?" Danny asked nervous.
"Don't worry. I've already had a little chat with them" Sam grinned evilly. Tucker shuddered at the memory of whatever Danny's female friend said to the student body of Casper high to make them not obsess over Danny. It must have been something big.
"I don't think I want to know" Danny said after a while.
"No you don't, dude, I still get nightmares about it" Tucker said, looking sheepishly at Sam, who was still grinning at the memory of whatever she had done.
Upon entering the school, Danny noticed that no one would look at him, he somewhat got what Sam did, she must have threatened them with Death or something to get them to not look at him. It was creepy just to think of Sam threatening the whole of the school. Danny was happy that he wasn't in school at the time.
The only person who was looking at him however was Valerie, who currently running down the hallway towards him.
"Danny. Hey Danny, wait up I have to talk with you!" She shouted.
"Ugh, why me?" Danny whined; she had obviously not gotten Sam's threat. This was going to be another eventful day. One, which Danny really wanted to avoid.
The End!
