Legend of the Ghost Guardians: Hopeful Storm
Chapter 10: Trouble with a capital "T"
-Amity Park-
Luna, Chinook, and Danny had arrived at the Nasty Burger. Before they entered, Chinook told Buck to wait outside until he gives him a meal. Inside, Danny saw his friends at their table.
"Hey guys!" Luna and Chinook saw that Danny's friends was a raven haired Goth girl with lavender eyes, dark clothes and boots while the other one was a glasses wearing dark skinned boy with a long sleeve yellow shirt, a black belt, green cargo pants, and brown boots while wearing a red beret.
"Hey Danny!" the girl called out. "Dude! What took you so long?" The boy said wondering for his friend's delay.
"Sorry guys. It's just I met a couple of new friends here. They're new around here."
"Well, not exactly new. We just haven't been to this part of town. Anyway, my name is Chinook and this is my sister Luna." Chinook introduced himself.
"Hello there." Luna greeted.
"Hi, the name's Foley. Tucker Foley and when it comes to technology, I'm your man." Tucker answered as the girl came and shook hands with the siblings.
"I'm Sam Manson. I'm also a Goth and an ultra-recycle-vegetarian." She explained.
"An ultra... what now?" Chinook confusingly asked Sam.
"It means she doesn't eat anything with a face on it" Tucker explained. "Unlike me, I'm a meat connoisseur. Observe." Tucker then sniffed at Chinook. "Last night, you had a jumbo T-bone steak followed by a side of mash potatoes with extra gravy."
"Wow! You're good!" Chinook was amazed. "Speaking of meat, are we gonna eat or what? Bring on the Nasty!"
The kids then ordered their meals and enjoyed it, especially Luna and Chinook who both ordered burgers with fries and diet sodas, plus some leftovers for Buck who slept outside.
"That hit the spot! I bet this is the best meal we ever had compared to home." Chinook said with satisfaction.
"Speaking of which, where do you live exactly?" Sam asked. Luna and Chinook looked at each other. They didn't want to reveal the Ghost Zone to them.
"We live around. It's just that we barely leave our home because of our father being overprotective of us." Luna said.
"Your dad, huh? So what does he do for a living?" Tucker asked.
"Our father works for the police department. You could say he's the boss." Chinook answered Tucker.
"Cool! But what about your mom? I bet she does all the housework around here." Tucker giggled as he drank his soda.
Luna softly said "Actually, no. We never knew our mother. She died when we were just babies." Tucker spat out the soda he drank and cough in embarrassment.
"I'm sorry. We didn't know." Danny sadly apologized. "It must be hard to be without a mom."
"It was harder for Dad." Chinook explained. "Ever since then, he had kept a close watch on us. He would always tell stories about Mom whenever we feel sad."
The Chinook realized something. "Speaking of Dad, we should go now before he sends a patrol after us. He must be wondering where we are."
Luna sighed. "I guess you're right, Chinook. Let's go."
"Wait! You guys don't have to leave so soon." Danny said.
"No, it's already late and besides, we're not supposed to be here-" Luna was elbowed by her brother before she could reveal more than she needs.
"To be here for this long" Chinook finished while grinning. He hoped that they didn't catch that. "I'm sorry, but we need to leave. But maybe we'll see each other again soon. We'll see you! Bye!" He and Luna waved as they left the place.
Danny and his friends waved farewell as well, but Danny ran outside to catch up with them. "Wait! You mind if I walk with you two home?" He asked nicely. The siblings thought about it for a while and they smiled.
"Okay, thanks Danny. That would be great." Chinook said happily. So the four friends (including Buck, of course) went off towards home.
The sun was setting in Amity Park and the kids were continuing on their way as they passed the park they saw earlier.
"So, where do you guys live exactly?" Danny asked as he walked.
"Well, uh... it's not far from here, I believe." Luna didn't want him to know about her home yet. They kept on walking until Buck stopped and sniffed around. Chinook had stopped as well when he saw Buck checking the surroundings.
"What is it, Buck? You smell something?" Luna and Danny wondered why Chinook wasn't following them.
"What's wrong, dude?" Danny asked.
"Buck sensed something's going on. You know, I somehow get the feeling that we're being watched." Chinook looked around to see any suspicious activity. Danny then saw that the ghost sense had gone off and rapidly looked around.
"Guys, I think that we should keep moving." But before he could say anything else, he was grabbed by a shadow like figure and yelled.
"DANNY!" The siblings called out to him as they ran after them until they saw Danny being contained by a pack of dark spirits. They were slightly large, dark, humanoid ghosts with shadowy auras around them. The leader ghost saw the children and sneered.
"I thought all of you guys were gone." The leader chucked as he held Danny hostage who was struggling to get free.
"You miserable coward, let me go!" he yelled as he struggled.
The leader growled. "Ha, ha, ha, ha. Don't let those children get away!" He ordered his minions as they closed in on the kids. The children prepared themselves to fight.
"Why don't you pick on somebody your own size! Buck, Sic' em!" Chinook ordered as Buck attacked the ghosts holding Danny, freeing him as he bit the enemies.
"Thanks!" Danny thanked as he stood alongside them. "Listen guys, I got an idea. I know we just met, but can you guys keep a huge secret?"
"Sure." They answered as Danny smiled. "Ok, Here I go. I'm Going Ghost!" Danny then transformed, his black hair turned white, his eyes change from icy blue to neon green, his skin changes from light to tanned, and his normal attire became a black jumpsuit suit with white boots, gloves, belt, and, a "D" emblem with an inner "P" on his chest. He transformed into the famous Danny Phantom.
Luna and Chinook couldn't believe their eyes at the sight before them. Their friend just became a completely different person.
"Ok, I don't know who you are or what you freaks want, but you just messed with the wrong guy!" Danny charged with his ecto-powered punch at them. It made contact with the leader's face and went flying into a nearby car.
"Whoa, you're a ghost!?" Chinook managed to say.
"Yeah, the truth is this is my secret identity to the humans. While I'm in this form, I'm known as Danny Phantom!" Danny said as he posed.
"Well, it's the same name but with a different last name. Simple yet genius." Chinook admired it. "And I thought we were only ones who could that!" He gasped as he covered his mouth but it was against his luck.
"What? What do you mean the only ones?" Danny stared. Chinook looked down. "Well, you see-"
"LOOK OUT!" They heard Luna warning them as an ecto blast shot at them but managed to dodge it at the last minute. The leader recovered from his injury and growled. "Get them and show them no mercy!" The leader ordered his soldiers as they swarmed at the kids.
"It's looks like we're in deep trouble." Luna said. Chinook looked Danny then at Luna.
"Luna, we should transform into our other forms."
"Are you crazy? We'll reveal ourselves to Danny!" She was shock at her brother's crazy idea. "You know what he'll do if we do that?"
"Right now if we don't do it, we're dead! Besides he trusted us when he transformed into what he is now. Why not us?" Chinook was willing to take that risk if it means saving their butts.
Luna groaned as she said. "All right, let's do it!" She grabbed Chinook's hand as they shouted "TOGETHER!" There was a bright light as one ring became two between them as they both transformed.
Luna's bluish black hair turned bright blue, her eyes change from blue to neon green, her skin changes from peach to a slightly tanned, and her normal attire became a silver bodysuit with long cerulean gloves, boots, and belt, and a crescent moon symbol on her chest. She wore a silver bodysuit with long cerulean gloves, belt, and boots.
Chinook's white hair turned silver, his eyes turned from blue into icy blue, and skin turn into pale skin (almost white). He wore a white shirt with black gloves, belt, shoes, and jeans. Now it was Danny's turn to be surprised.
"You guys are ghosts too?!" Danny yelled as he was fighting against a serpent like dark spirit.
"Today is full of surprises, don't you think?" Chinook chucked as he rubbed his head. "Look, we'll explain later, but right now, let's get ready to rumble!"
"Let's do it, Brother!" Luna shouted as they shot out their ecto-energy blasts at the spirits. To the siblings, this is turning into a really fun battle, especially their first in the human world.
Not far, Sidney Poindexter and Youngblood were watching the whole thing from the rooftops. Seeing the children fight against these monsters had made them worried to the core. "Youngblood, run home and get help!" Sidney shouted.
"But I wanna fight too! We can't leave them like this." He tried to fly towards the battle but was quickly grabbed by his friend.
"You want to fight against those things!? They'll turn you into a puddle of ectoplasm in seconds!" Sidney panicked. "We're both getting help NOW!" Then they flew as fast as they could towards the Ghost Zone.
-In the Ghost Zone, Walker's prison -
"Why aren't they here yet? They should have been back by now!" Walker was pacing nervously in his office, wondering why his children didn't return home. The Ghost Writer was with him trying to calm him down.
"Don't worry, Walker. They'll be fine. I mean, what could happen?" Ghost Writer assured him. Walker glared at the writer. "Ok, forget I said anything!" he quickly said nervously.
Suddenly, the door slammed open and Youngblood and Sidney entered out of breath. "Walker! There's... trouble! Dark spirits... in the human realm!" Sidney yelled as he was hyperventilating.
"What!?" Walker freaked out as he heard the news.
"Luna and Chinook are over there!" Youngblood managed to finish as he managed to struggle himself on a chair.
"No...No! The Kids!" Walker shouted as he flew off out of the office in a flash. The Ghost Writer gasped as he followed. "Bullet, fly ahead, and find them!" Walker ordered as Bullet flew ahead followed by a group of officers.
-Amity Park-
"Hey guys, special delivery from yours truly!" Danny shouted as he threw an ecto-energy ball at the spirits and blasted most of them.
"Nice one, Danny!" Luna gave Danny thumbs up for his attack. She flew and kept blasting at her enemies. "There's so many of them, guys!"
"Then we'll keep fighting til' the last one is gone!" Chinook shouted until he heard Buck yelp. "Buck!" He saw Buck being blasted away by the leader.
"Show's over Mutt!"
"Hey! Why don't you fight me like a... big thing... whatever you are! You pathetic excuse of a ghost!" Danny taunted as he was charging his energy to attack but was flung away from the leader and landed next to Buck who was tired from the attacks.
The leader growled at them for he couldn't stand being insulted, especially by a hybrid ghost kid. "I've had about enough of you!" The leader then was preparing to finish both Buck and Danny off as they stood close to each other with no time to dodge.
"Danny, Buck look out!" Chinook yelled. "Noooooo...aaaahhhhhhhhh! Chinook took a deep breath and out of nowhere, an ice beam came from Chinooks' mouth and froze the leader's minions and blasted the leader away from his friends.
Luna was shocked from what happened. "No way! Was that ice, Chinook?"
The leader weakly stood up as he ordered. "Take care of them! I gotta report to Phantana!" The leader cowardly ran off away from the fight.
"He's getting away!" Danny shouted.
"Forget about him! Right now, we have bigger things to worry about." Luna said as they were being surrounded by a big pack of spirits.
"Leave this to me, friends!" Chinook said as he took a deep breath and with his new ghost power, he froze all the spirits to solid ice. Then the three of them blasted all of them using their ghost rays together. Danny then came towards them.
"You guys ok?"
"We're fine Danny. Thanks to Chinook's chilling ghost power." Luna praised her brother by hugging him who blushed in embarrassment.
"So..." Danny started to say but he couldn't find the right words. "You guys are really ghosts?"
Luna and Chinook couldn't hide it any longer as they sighed. "I'm afraid so, Danny. We didn't mean to lie to you, but you got to understand that we won't mean any harm to anyone here." Luna said and this caused Danny to calm down a little and he smiled.
"It's good to know that I got friends like you." He took a hand to them. The siblings smiled as they shook hands with Danny. "I should have known the moment that my ghost sense went off at school; it was you two that were the ghosts."
"We were afraid at first especially after you said that your parents were ghost hunters. So you now know why we didn't tell you sooner." Chinook admitted. "Also Buck here is a ghost as well."
Danny laughed as he petted Buck who happily licked him. "I guess he's a friendly one."
"He's just thanking you for saving him before that black stain jerk could get to him. Buck would trust anyone who earns it or whoever is a friend to us." Chinook explained to Danny. Danny then realized something.
"You said you are ghosts but I thought you were halfas just like me." Luna and Chinook looked at him in confusion.
"Halfas? What's a halfa?" Luna questioned him. Danny chucked until he saw their faces. "Oh you don't know do you?" They shook no.
"Well, I'm a halfa which means that I'm half human and half ghost. But I became a halfa in a lab accident months ago." Danny said.
"But we were born like this and our parents are ghosts so that makes us pure ghosts." Luna explained.
"Then how do you explain your transformation from human to ghost?" Danny pointed out. The siblings were deep in thought when he said that.
"It's just a unique power that we received when we grew up. Or is it?" Luna wondered.
"You know what?" Danny said as he looked down. "Forget about it. It's none of my business. I don't care what you are as long as you're friendly." They all laughed as they changed the subject. "By the way, I was wondering. Who is your father? You told me that it was just you two and your dad at home and since he's a ghost, well, it just came to me."
Chinook scratched his head nervously. "Well, our dad is..." But before he could finish, he suddenly heard someone calling him.
"Luna! Chinook!" It was Walker who blasted a ray in front of Danny and quickly landed in front of his kids. Bullet, his officers, and even Ghost Writer, Youngblood, and Sidney came and they're all relieved to see the kids unharmed.
"Children! You're both all right!" Ghost Writer happily said as he hugged the kids and they returned the hug. Luna saw her father about to attack Danny.
"Daddy, please don't hurt him! He's our friend!"
"He's your friend?!" Walker shouted in disbelief.
"Walker's your dad?!" Danny also reacted in disbelief.
"Guess you know why we don't come into the human world often. Ha, ha. Surprised?" Chinook nervously chuckled as he rubbed his head. "Wait, you know my dad?"
"You could say I'm wanted in the Ghost Zone even though it was a mistake in the first place." Danny explained as he stared at Walker.
"Dad, what are you doing here?" Luna asked.
"It's a good thing I did after your friends told me about the attack. You could have been killed!" Walker angrily said at his daughter.
"But we were just fine! Even before we met Danny and helped us." Chinook defended his sister.
"Danny Phantom?" Walker sneered at Danny.
"Actually it was Chinook who did the saving with his new power." Danny said.
"New power?!" All the ghosts shouted.
"He breathed ice! Me and Buck were about to be attacked by some dark ghostlike monster when Chinook let loose with some cold ice beam. No joke! Ice from the mouth! It was crazy, I tell you!" Danny explained everything to the ghosts who were shocked in disbelief.
"It's true, dad. I just got real mad, opened my mouth, and whoosh...Ice age city." Chinook said to his father.
"I don't want to hear another word. Bullet, patrol this area. See that the dark spirits are gone." Walker ordered his second in command who agreed and left. Then Walker glared at his kids. "And as for you two! You deliberately disobeyed me! You know that this realm is off limits!"
"But dad, we're sorry! We didn't mean to disobey you!" Luna sadly said. "But we don't understand. Why did you made this place off limits? The humans are like us. What if there are more people like Danny Phantom who is a halfa? What if we're like him?"
Walker could only stare in what his daughter had just said. 'Has she realized it yet? How many more secrets were revealed today?' He was deep in thought until he returned to reality.
"Let's go home, all of us!" Walker angrily ordered all the ghosts, including Luna and Chinook, to return to the Ghost Zone. Then he came to Danny. "I appreciate you in saving my children today, but I want you to stay away from them for their safety."
"What? Why?" Danny questioned the warden.
"Because it's best that they forget everything about this realm and for everyone else." Walker then walked away from Danny.
"Best for everyone? Or best for you? You know I'm surprised that someone managed to fall for someone like you!" Danny angrily said as Walker stopped suddenly as he was hurt from the comment but refused to show it to his enemy. Danny flew away but not before he waved goodbye to his friends who saw Danny one more time.
"Bye" Luna and Chinook sadly whispered to Danny as they flew away.
"Bye" Danny sadly said as the friends went to their separate ways.
Uh Oh! Looks like somebody's busted! Would Danny see his friends again? What would Walker do to punish his children? All that will be revealed later on!
Wow! This was one freaking long chapter and who knows how many more to come. Anyway hope you enjoyed it.
Please review.
