Hi and I will tell you a summary of these past three weeks I've been through.

-First week
Nothing but testing!

-Second week
Busy finishing up tests.
Was rained on twice right after school ended both times.
Because of that I was partly sick...ehh...
Drove to Dallas, Texas and got me some new pants and good food.

-Third week.
Projects man! Who the hell gives a project at the last 2 weeks of school?! And I have to present it on the last day of school TT_TT

Oh and by the way, I did revise and edited the last ten chapters and if you readers out their care, you can reread and tell me if I miss anything. If not, then I'll get them after I post chapter 20. And before you ask, no. I refuse to get a beta. I am possessive and the thought of another person I don't know touching this story disturbs me. I know getting a beta is a norm in the real word in publishing companies, but I like to know that I can do this by myself without wasting my time waiting for a beta to read and fix a chapter 10 months later.

And I decided to take Summer school for economics for two weeks instead of the half semester. Maybe another two weeks for Government but I don't know yet.

Yes there will be times where I will miss an obvious mistake, but with how our brains insert and autocorrects a word...yeah, brains are weird.

But be grateful! That this was not one of your many distractions during testing season you procrastinators.

Thank you.

Danny was jolted awake by his ghost sense and heard an explosion that followed after. He quickly looked around and could tell it was noon seeing the sun so high up in the day.

Danny stretched and relishes one of the first cool autumn breezes along with the fact he had a nice long nap.

"THOSE KIDS WILL SEE THE TRUE LENGTH OF MY COOL, AND HIP POWERS!" Danny heard Technus. "AND SINCE THE GHOST BOY WON'T STOP ME, I'LL SHOW THE WORLD!"

Yup. I sure won't. Phantom said merrily.

Then Danny heard a blast being shot.

"Beastboy!" Both Phantom and Fenton groaned when they heard Robin.

Fenton saw Beastboy being hurled out of the foliage hitting his head at the base of the tree he was in. After a moment later Robin was jumping into the clearing avoiding a green ecto-blast.

"Beastboy! Are you okay?" Robin asked still in a defensive position with Bo-staff in hand and ready.

Another electrified green blast came through the same direction with Technus busting through with his large appliance made body laughing at his opponents' pathetic attempt.

"FOOLISH HUMANS! YOU WILL NEVER DEFEAT ME WITH YOUR- oh hello there ghost child." Technus greeted. "How is your day?"

Phantom could only stare at that.

He's not attacking?

Guess not. Fenton stretched out their body again and floated off the branch.

"Going pretty great. Was taking a nap when I hear the explosions though." Fenton replied.

Technus laughed nervously. "Sorry about that Phantom, I'll take my leave then." He turned to the Titans. "AND WHEN WE MEET AGAIN, I SHALL BE VICTORIOUS ONCE MORE!" And shot off into the sky leaving the three.

Robin just helped Beastboy up and was dumbfounded about the conversation he had just witness. He hadn't seen Phantom near the area until the white-haired ghost came out of the tree, but he was more surprised on the fact that the technology controlling ghost back off at the sight of Phantom.

He furrowed his eyebrows. Didn't that ghost attack Phantom freely before? So why the sudden change?

Robin shook away the thoughts as Danny lay back down on to his branch. The boy wonder glared in the ghost's direction with Beastboy smiling nervously. Beastboy didn't know why this ghost was different from all the others. His instincts were on high alert ever since the power surge he felt when Phantom denounced his protection of the town.

"Hey-uh, Phantom?" Beastboy called out nervously.

Fenton could hear Phantom growl in irritation.

What's your problem? Fenton was a bit confused by his reaction.

"I just wanted to say sorry about the 'dead' thing," Beastboy laughed to do away some tension, "so are we cool?"

Phantom scoffed At least he did have some sense to apologize.

For what? Fenton didn't understand what was going on.

"Apology accepted?" Fenton didn't know how to respond but that.

Then his ghost sense went off followed by a faint whistling sound that was getting louder and louder. Danny quickly got up and turned around to get hit by a glowing missile exploding as it tossed up the earth when they both hit the ground creating a crater in the middle of the clearing as Skulker came flying in. Robin was able to dodge last minute but Beastboy was blasted away into a nearby tree.

"Haha! I have you now Ghost child and now that you have renounced you petty guardianship on the pathetic humans-" Skulker summoned guns from his right arm, "-I may now see your true worth as a prize!"

A blue beam came through the crater and dust freezing Skulker's offending arm leaving it useless. The ice was slowly building as the beam continued on until the weight forced the mechanical ghost to the ground.

Robin was impressed as Phantom came out like a bullet giving a sharp kick snapping off the frozen arm of the attacking ghost. Phantom's eyes widened as blades started to come at him. He dodged them but got nicked in the left arm.

Skulker flew up in the air to cover some ground before start shooting again, but with the imbalance of the suit because of the missing arm Phantom was able to quickly catch up and knock the hunter back down successfully trapping him into a thermos before Skulker even touched the mangled ground.

Robin was about to ask but instead raised an eyebrow when Phantom started to violently shake the soup can.

"You stupid ghost! Why can't you leave me alone?!" Phantom yelled. He slowly floated down by a big rock by the lake.

Robin stepped up with his Bo-staff in hand. "Where'd you get that thermos Phantom? I'm sure they didn't just give it to you."

Phantom turned to Robin and gave him a look as if he were stupid. "Are you kidding me? Might as well say they gave it to me when they give out their weaponry like candy!" Phantom proceeded to slam the containment device into the rock beside him and Robin couldn't help but wince at the forming crack on the rock and the very noticeable dent on the thermos.

With another slam both the thermos and rock broke on impact and once again Robin stared wide eyed at the bits and pieces of the mechanical ghost that came bursting and leaving one thought in mind.

Murder. Robin didn't know if ghosts could even die so he quickly diminished the thought to the back of his head for later.

"And Skulker! You better find a way to the Ghost zone because I'm not delivering anymore!" An 'eep' was heard in the rubble as the head of the debris suddenly shot out into the sky. "And leave me alone or I'll permanently stick you in the thermos and bury it where no one can find you ever!" Phantom shouted.

With one last huff Phantom flew off into the opposite direction Skulker went.

Beastboy regained consciousness around the time Phantom broke the thermos. He was afraid and relieved of the situation being over, relieved for obvious reasons and afraid of more ghost battles.

The ghost battles were endless. The changeling didn't want to move anymore and even with the ghost hunting gear, the Fentons', and the GIW with back up, it might as well be an all out, one-sided war.

Every corner they turn to it feels like the ghosts are taunting them instead of just fighting them. And when they do beat some ghost down, the ghost would just disappear to escape or come back again a few hours later rested up and recharged while they were tired and worn out.

Beastboy was snapped out of his thoughts by the sound of Robin kicking the tree Phantom was in out of frustration.

Robin had to wonder. Why can't his team do what Phantom did alone? The Titans seemed to have an advantage with Raven and Starfire along with the more numbers in the forces. The first couple of weeks were easy compare to this and it was because Phantom was able to beat them to the punch somehow almost as if he knows the ghost was there the moment it appeared.

The boy wonder was so angry and tired. In his recent fights him and his team were getting careless from the lack of rest but were still able to keep things straight but at the back of his mind he knew that was going to end.

He didn't know this kind of pressure before and started to wonder if this is was what Phantom felt trying to protect the town.

"Hey Robin?" Beastboy said in a small voice. "Are we going to be okay?"

Robin walked down to the lake's edge and looked at his reflection. Everything on him was somehow torn up with dirt smudges on his face and his hair was a rat's nest. He looked over to Beastboy who was in a similar state and he gave a tired sigh.

"No we're not. Our team and this town will not be okay."

Robin opened up his communicator to check on the team.


Raven and Starfire were flying over the partly destroyed city outside of the ghost shield patrolling for citizens and maybe fight off ghosts.

Raven looked back at the green dome that covered a 25 mile radius with the help of the ghost towers. It originally covered a 15 mile radius and would have if Phantom had not saved those towers.

They flew around a little more until Raven felt Phantom's auras.

"Starfire, Phantom is near." Raven stated and looking toward the direction it was in.

Raven didn't want to fight Phantom if necessary with the state she was in especially without back up. She looked over to Starfire who was just staring sadly at the sight of Phantom and slowly descended down to the nearest building with Raven following.

"Is Foe-Phantom really our enemy?" Starfire asked. "The emotions I felt that day made me want to cry over a lost I never had and couldn't fly because I couldn't find myself to think joyous thoughts." She turned to Raven. "I have to question the people we are fighting with as they tell us how Phantom is. He tries hard for this town and yet is deemed evil for a reason I do not know. Please tell me Raven, why is Phantom evil?"

Raven had to look away from Starfire's eyes. The way she easily wore her emotions on her sleeves were sometimes unbearable because it brings out some unnecessary guilt and a little regret on her side. But she did mull over on Starfire's words and the previous thoughts that were just as same.

After a moment of silence she sighed.

"I don't know what to say to that. I'm sorry." Raven finally said.

Starfire put a hand to her mouth with a thoughtful expression. "He is like a juvenile imago." She said. "He is not like anybody or any ghost I have met so far, more misunderstood with the world than anything I believe."

She looked over to the direction where Phantom was, seeing he was now gone from the spot, and started fixate on a personal errand to shed some light on Phantom's standing in the 'good' or the 'bad'. Starfire's little bug analogy does makes sense seeing the world doesn't really like dealing with the 'different'.

They continued their patrol wordlessly with Raven never noticing that Phantom's auras never left the area.

Phantom merely floated for a few moments to watch the sky by the clock tower and it was days like these he was glad these he was able to fly. Ever since he was little, seeing he was still part of 'Danny', he was always jealous of the birds that flew over him which eventually inspired his dream to be an astronaut.

He tore his gaze away from the sky and quickly phased through the face of the clock tower and settled onto a wooden beam. All around him were sets of various weapons he took, found, or 'borrowed' from his parents, the GIW, and from other various ghost hunters. But there were really more thermoses than any other weapon and he liked to carry at least two just in case.

Phantom jumped down and pocketed one of the thermoses to replace the one he broke.

Yeah. You broke.

Skulker started it! So I think a little punishment wouldn't hurt. Phantom thought back childishly.

Fenton scoffed. Whatever.

Finding this place was another accident as he was blasted by Skulker one day and phased through the building finding himself in an empty place. He really only uses this place as a store area and nothing more but became a critical checkpoint especially when he added the reality gauntlet.

He became increasingly paranoid after that. Fenton wanted to destroy it but Phantom wanted to keep it; the joys of arguing with yourself.

Phantom transformed into human and flopped down onto a pillow he brought from home. He picked up the book that Clockwork gave him, 'Auras'. He wasn't able to start on it but he was able to take the chance now. The book itself was pretty thin but remembering back on what Clockwork said, not much was really known about them past their characteristics.

It wasn't long until he fell asleep the moment he opened it...


Summers up people, but I'm sure you all have the time and energy to review. It gives us writers an idea how you guys reacted to our chapters :)
