PHANTOM (DP Tarzan)

Chapter 10: Danny's Plan


Morning came quickly with a bright sunny day which can make anyone happy and Danny was no exception. He quickly began grabbing any type of flower he could set his eyes on since they were all in full bloom. He grabbed blue, orange and tops it off with purple violets, creating a lovely bouquet for Sam. He then flew off towards her camp while his friends Nocturne and Ember watched on.

"Aw, Ember." Nocturne said with a sweet sigh, knowing his friend was in love. "I've never seen him so happy."

Ember, however, had a scowl on her face, feeling left out and a little jealous. Ever since Danny began hanging out with the humans, they been seeing each other less and less each day.

"Eh, I give it a week." She said, crossing her arms while Nocturne became concerned.

Finally, Danny managed to reach camp with the bouquet in hand, ready to present it to Sam. But when he did, he saw many men dressed in White, taking down the tents and packing everything up in a rush. Some of them carried boxes towards the coast, where there was huge ship not far in the sea.

There was a lot of yelling between them, making Danny concern of this pack of white strangers. These men all wore white uniforms, carrying high tech, and wore black shades. 'Who are these men?' He thought.

"Hey, wait! Don't take those away!" Danny suddenly heard Tucker yelling. He saw the teen trying to stop the men from taking away his stuff. "Those things can only be held by Techno geek's hands, like mine! I've waited all my life for a discovery like this and I won't leave until I see a ghost!" Tucker sighed as he then noticed Danny looking on. "Dude, you came! Can you believe this? Isn't it a dream crusher?" But before Danny could answer, Tucker was suddenly pushed away by the busy men.

Danny climbed up a ledge to see the view. He tried to search for his dear friend.

"You're the Captain! Just tell them you had engine trouble and give us two more days!" Vlad growled at the captain known as Mr. Lancer.

"And be late at every port from here to Amity Park?" Mr. Lancer scoffed.

"We'll have come all this way for nothing!" Sam tried to reason. "Please, Mr. Lancer, we just need a little more time!"

"I'm sorry, Ms. Manson, but I simply can't do it!" The captain turned away, heading back to the ship. Sam was deeply upset. Vlad was furious as he let out a frustrated groan and turned on Sam.

"This is your fault!" Vlad growled as he blamed her. "If you hadn't wasted all this time teaching the ghost boy, we would have found at least one ghost! I should've followed my instincts and set traps for the specters!"

Sam became tense and irritated. She packed her last clothes on her suitcase and closed it up, feeling angry as Vlad's accusations.

"Don't you think I'm disappointed about the ghosts? You are absolutely impo-" She didn't finished as she suddenly bumped onto Danny, accidently destroying the bouquet. Luckily, Danny was left with two small violets standing. They were both started by the sudden bump, but Sam sighs in relief of seeing her friend here.

"Danny! I was so afraid that you wouldn't come in time. The boat's arrived, the boat that's come to take us home, to Amity Park... And Tuck and I were wondering..." She trailed off for a moment, becoming sheepish as her cheeks turn a bit pink.

"Well, I was wondering... well, we really hoped that you'll come with us, won't you?" She looked at him with a hopeful glint in her eyes.

Danny thought about it with curiosity. "Go see Amity Park today, come home tomorrow." He didn't mind going even though it sounded a bit of a stretch, but he couldn't just leave his friends and family behind.

Sam frowned at his answer and sadly said. "Oh, no. Well, you see, Danny, it would be very difficult to come back... ever."

"Not come back?" His eyes widened a bit. Sam began to try to explain to him before he could decide again.

"Oh no no no, I know it sounds awful, but you belong with us, with people." She said, trying to say it in the nicest way possible. "I don't know any other way."

"Sam, if I can't go, then… you should just stay here." Danny said. He then sat with one knee and offering the violets to her. "Sam must stay with Danny."

"Stay here?" She stuttered until she accidently dropped her suitcase, letting all her clothes out. She then sadly picked them up from the ground. "That... That's not a possibility, I'm afraid. No, I can't stay, Danny. Look, I've got-I'm with my friend, Tucker, I got my family in Amity Park, my home, and..."

Danny gently takes her hand, trying to console her. "Sam, stay. Stay with me and become part of my family."

"But-"

"Please. For me?" Danny interrupted her, taking her hand, and offering the flowers. He hopes to be with her forever.

Sam stared at the violets, knowing he was trying to be with her, but the choice was too much to bear. Her eyes began to form tears. "But… I can't." She stood up and ran away, crying. Danny felt his heart drop, as he watches her leave, not looking back.

"Women." Danny turned at the sudden voice of Vlad Masters watching the whole thing. "How typical." He then grabbed a bottle of wine from a box and serves two glasses for him and for Danny. "That's too bad, Daniel. She really is a piece of work. One moment she's all happy, and the next he's depressed." Vlad rested his hand on Danny's shoulder. "Even if you hadn't grown up a ghostly stranger, you've been lost. There are no trails through a woman's heart. I should know."

"Sam is leaving." Danny muttered softly.

"Yes." Vlad said with disappointment, but secretly trying to manipulate the sadden ghost teen. "If only she could've spent more time with the ghosts. She's so disappointed, crushed, really. Sorry, old boy. Oh well, I'd best get Samantha's things to the ship. I guess this is farewell, old chap. It was nice knowing you, though it would have been better to meet your whole family up close, but hey, life doesn't always give you what you want." Vlad picked up some of Sam's luggage and made his way to the ship.

Danny pondered for a moment, thinking about Sam. She seemed so... Distant and empty now... I know he's not allowed to, but he just couldn't bear to part with Sam, especially with how he feels for her.

"Vlad." Vlad stopped, grinning. "If Sam sees the ghost family, she'll stay?"

Vlad turned back to Danny. "Say, that's why she came, isn't it?" He smirked lightly.

Danny thought more and sighed. He had to make her happy again. "Okay. I'll do it." He wasn't exactly positive about his decision, but this meant that Sam could stay.

"Good boy! Agent K?" Vlad looked to another man.

"Yes, Mr. Masters?" One of the Guys in White looked over.

"Get the boys together. There's going to be a change in plans." The agent nodded.

Danny hurried on as he began to make his way back home. He knew that if he was going to show Sam the ghosts, you'd have to find a way to get Fright Knight distracted and away from them. He was going to need help and he knew just the ghosts to do that.


"Ember, all you have to do is get Fright Knight out of the way. Piece of cake!" Danny said calmly, as Ember sent him a disbelieving look.

"What?!" She asked, standing up from her spot until she landed onto Nocturne's shoulder.

"Well, I'd be happy to get Frig-" Nocturne was quickly cut off by Ember who shoved a fruit to his mouth, shutting him up.

"Hey! Put a sock in it and get me outta here!" She angrily pouted while Nocturne walked. "Can you believe that dipstick? He leaves us and lets the roof fall on top of us, CRASH! Now waltzes in here and expects us to just-"

Danny appeared in front of them, showing them a pleading yet hopeful look. "Ember, I'm asking you as a friend. Please, consider this as a family favor. That's what we are, right?"

Danny then gave her a cute face that's hard to ignore, trying to win her over. "No! Oh! Oh with the face and those blue eyes and the- ARRGH!" She groaned as she gave in with a huff. "All right! But don't make me do anything embarrassing."

Danny grinned a bit.

-A few minutes later-

"I'M GONNA KILL HIM!"

Ember bursts out of the bushes in fury wearing Sam's purple and black dress (the same one from the school dance episode), purple lipstick, and a black wig. Well, so much for not doing anything embarrassing.

Nocturne joined in where he disguised one of his tentacles as Tucker with a yellow shirt, glasses, and the red beret. At least he's not complaining.

"Uh, actually I thought that dress is rather slimming on you." He admitted, thinking that Ember looked nice in it.

"Oh, really?" Ember chuckles as she twirled around. "I thought it was a little girly and kind of…"

"WHO'S THERE?!"

"AHHH!" Ember yelled with Nocturne following behind when they heard Fright Knights roaring voice. It was time to put their plan to action.

When Fright Knight bursts out of the bushes with his sword at hand, he saw the disguised Ember and Nocturne running away.

"How does she run in this thing?!" Ember yelled as Nocturne used his Tucker puppet to play his part.

Fright Knight roared as he chased them as Ember and Nocturne ran through the jungle, leading him away from their home.
