Hey guys me again. Wow two posts in one day crazy right? If your wondering why my posting schedule is so erratic its because I post and write when ever I can and right now I'm a bit sick so HEY! why not write? Nearly done with the story now, I think I will be wrapping it up next chapter so if you liked this please stay tuned for more stories to come of the Alex Phantom chronicles! This is of course is only the beginning of his life. ;D

Danny looked around Vlad's living room looking for away out, but before he could he could do anything a sudden blast hit him from underneath him sending him flying into the air and crashing down onto the hard wooden floor. Danielle appeared as she fazed through the floor and started firing more ecto-blasts at Danny. Danny created a temporary ecto-shield to deflect the on coming attacks, although he knew that in his current condition he wouldn't be able to keep the shield up for long.

"Stop fighting!" Danielle shouted, "I know you're to weak to beat me."

"I'm not going to fight you." Danny said, as he watched her build up energy in her hands for another attack. "Every time I fight a clone it turns to goop and I know you and your brother aren't mindless like the other clones."

Danielle suddenly felt a strange feeling over come her. She looked down at her feet, which had started to admit a glowing green goop. She screamed in horror as she tried to pull back her energy to stop herself from melting. Luckily she was successful and noticed the ectoplasm had returned to her and she had stopped melting. Alex had told her the dangers of pushing her self to hard but she never imagined reaching her limit could be so easy. It was terrifying to think that at any moment she could melt into nothing more than a pile of goop.

"I don't want to hurt you." Danny explained

"Then let my dad have your DNA so he can save me!" she shouted

Danny was surprised that she couldn't see the truth. "He's not going to save you. Your nothing but a mess he isn't going to clean up." He shouted back angrily.

Tears started to swell up in Danielle's eyes again as she heard the hard truth. "You're a liar!" she shouted.

Danny noticed how upset Danielle had become but before he could try and comfort her she hit him with another powerful blast, which sent him crashing into the wall rendering him unconscious yet again.

Danielle looked at down at the now unconscious Danny, too angry and emotionally confused to feel sorry for what she had done. She picked up Danny struggling under the wait of the older boys body she flew back to the lab and delivered him to Vlad.

Meanwhile Alex had given up on sleep as he could here the noise of the lab from his room and the guilt of having been apart of what was happing to Danny down their had made sleeping impossible. He had peeked into Dani's room to see if the noise woke her up as well only to find that she was gone. Alex was currently searching the castle for her.

"Excellent work my dear." Vlad said as he secured Danny in his modified cloning chamber once again. "Now how am I going too get Daniel to morph." asked pretended to ask him self-out loud.

Danielle noticed that Danny had now regained conciseness and was now looking worried. She felt a bit of guilt in her heart as she looked at his state.

"I know!" he said snapping his fingers "You could over shadow him and force the transformation!" Vlad said giving the young girl a fake smile.

Before today Danielle would have jumped at the chance to help her father but now she couldn't stop her self from thinking about how she had almost dissolved into a pile of goop a few minutes ago.

"What if its to much?" she asked looking at Danny with a worried expression "What if I can't handle it and I dissolve like the other clone?"

Vlad knew that this was most likely going to happen but he didn't care. After he had Danny's DNA he would have no more use for either Danielle or Alex. In fact this would save him the trouble of disposing her himself.

"No it won't be, I'm sure you can handle it" Vlad said trying to sound convincing but his annoyance of her uncooperative behavior was seeping through.

"But what if?" she began

"ENOUGH!" Vlad shouted. He just wanted this over with and he was tired of trying to pretend to be fatherly to her. His patients had official met its limit. "You will do as your told! Like your brother you live to serve me!"

This out burst shocked Danielle but it helped her see the truth she had been denying. Vlad didn't care about her and was only using her. Normally Danielle would have burst into tears in realization that her father didn't lover her but for some reason all she could do was get angry. She was angry of how Vlad treated her, of how he treated Alex.

"No!" Was the only thing she managed to say in her fury. She mustered all the courage she had and slammed her hand on the release button on Danny's chamber.

Danny was surprised at this sudden act of heroism but happy that she could finally see the truth.

"So you're helping me now?" Danny quipped with a smile

"You want to ask questions or do you want to kick some but?" She asked helping Danny out of his chamber.

They both then took dramatic posses as bright rings of light formed around them turning them into their black and white ghost counterparts. They both charged up their hands and delivered a powerful double blast right to Vlad's chest. Vlad flew backwards and smashed into the cloning chamber, which held his perfect clone. Vlad recovered quickly from his fall but then lost all concentration on the current fight as he looked at the now destroyed cloning chamber.

"Clone destabilizing lamb chop" Vlad's Maddie-AI said appearing suddenly beside the chamber. (Which creeped out Danny to no end.)

Vlad watched in horror as his perfect clone dissolved slowly into nothing more than a green mess. Rage built up inside Vlad and he sent a glare towards Danielle that made her skin crawl. Vlad looked like he was ready to murder her as he reeled up and shot off the ground, flying straight towards her. Danielle took a step back in fear but before she could say anything Danny stepped in front of her.

"Get behind me and cover your ears." He said with a determined look on his face

Danielle did what she was told but was still caught off guard when Danny let out an incredibly loud scream. Danielle watched in amazement as the scream sent Vlad flying back, pinning him to the wall. Lab equipment was getting thrown of the walls. Tables were getting shattered. Danielle had never seen a display of power like this. Vlad watched his lab being destroyed, all his work erased.

"Systems damaged." His Maddie A.I. said appearing beside him "critical overload, also I never loved you, I loved the Jack program."

"Vlady!" a Jack hologram shouted with a smile before kissing Vlad's now ex-robot girlfriend.

Danielle watched as Danny fell to the ground in exhaustion as soon as he had finished his display of power.

"Drained me of all my power" Danny said through heavy panting "But worth it to take this place down."

Danielle knelt down trying to help Danny up when the two noticed Vlad rise from the mountain of ruble he had been buried under. Vlad somehow seemed even angrier than he had before. He started to walk slowly towards them with an evil smile and murder in his eyes. Danielle was terrified and wasn't sure what to do, she knew she couldn't fight him and Danny was to drained to help her. Danielle wanted to run but she couldn't leave Danny alone with Vlad, with the look in Vlad's eyes he would certainly die.

"What are you going to do Dear?" Vlad said with an evil smirk "Daniels out for the count and you have already reached your limit."

Danielle looked at Danny who had managed to make it on to one knee. He tried to put on a brave face for the younger girl but even he didn't know how they were going to get out of this one. Danny closed his eyes in preparation for Vlad's inevitable attack but opened them suddenly when he heard a sudden voice that echoed around the room.

"Hey Vlad! Deals off!" Alex shouted suddenly appearing above them and delivering a powerful punch right to Vlad's unsuspecting face.

Unknown to anyone else Alex had been watching invisible the since Vlad's outburst at Danielle and had mostly watched frozen in shock at the events that had unfolded before him. Mostly at how Danny was willing to risk everything to protect his little sister after everything they had done to him.

Danielle watched in awe as her brother punched, kicked, and blasted Vlad around the room like a pinball. Alex was having the time of his life; He had waited too long for this moment and wasn't going to waste a single second of it. The end result left Vlad a mess on the floor, beaten and bruised all over.

Alex then turned to face Danny, who was being helped up by Danielle.

"Thanks you really saved us there." Danny said giving Alex a smile

"You were awesome!" Danielle squealed as she wrapped her brother in a hug.

"Are you kidding? The way you stood up to Vlad on your own, that was awesome!" Alex replied ruffling his sister's hair. Alex turned back to Danny who was smiling at the two sibling's show of affection for each other.

"I have you to thank most of all, Danny." Alex said with a smile and a bit of a nod.

"Me? What did I do?" Danny asked a bit confused.

"You protected Daniele even after everything we did to you." Alex said gratefully.

"Well that's what cousins are for!" Danny replied giving Danielle a wink, which made her smile wildly.

"Cousins?" Alex asked looking between the two with a confused look.

Danielle let out at small giggle "Yea we're third cousins once removed!" she said with a laugh.

"Cousins" Alex said again gently "I like the way that sounds." Giving his new friend, or his new family member a handshake.
