I don't own DP.
The next scene, however, didn't appear to be pleasant.
Danny was fighting Vlad. It must be their physical studies, and the history part of their studies was over. Vlad was suprisingly actually doing what he told Danny he would do.
Beads of sweat rolled down Danny's face as he kicked Vlad in the shin. Vlad cringed a bit, but then he counter attacked with an ectoblast. Danny's eyes widened, and he tried to dodge it, but it was too late. The ectoblast knocked him down to the ground. He transformed back to Fenton, leaving Vlad smirking. Danny's eyes were closed as Vlad sauntered over.
"That was almost too eas-" began Vlad, but Danny's eyes snapped open a vivid green. He quickly transformed back to Phantom and shot an ectoblast at Vlad's stomach, knocking Vlad over. Vlad transformed back to Masters and let out a pained chuckle.
"Element of surprise. Good job, little badger. Lessons are over for today," he declared. Danny smiled and let blue rings wash over him once more.
He walked out of the room, but his gaze-
-it suddenly diverted to me. But he couldn't see me... so what was he looking at? His face brightened, and then a blush fluttered across his face. Why?
Danny's odd expression snapped back to a dull expression as he looked at something else.
"Clockwork... What was he looking at that made him so... Happy? He couldn't see me," I asked in confusion. Clockwork quickly looked around.
"He was... Uh... Simply looking at Jazz and his sister playing chess. He must've been so full of brotherly love that he had to pause everything and adore the scene for a moment," he explained a bit too quickly. I gave him a suspicious look, but then looked behind me.
Jazz and Danielle were indeed playing chess. Danielle's eyebrows were furrowed in major concentration as she moved a piece. With a triumphant smirk Jazz placed her final piece.
"Checkmate!" she exclaimed. Danielle groaned and slumped down.
"How do you do it?" she asked curiously. Jazz let out a mysterious smile.
"Strategy. A magician never reveals her secrets," she said with a wink. Danielle laughed.
"Awwww..." she said slowly. Jazz smiled.
"It takes a plan. You can't let your opponent know what you're doing. If you tell your opponent one thing, do it, but do the oppisite behind their back. They'll never see it coming, and...checkmate. Game over."
Jazz had a grave look cross over her face.
"That's what Vlad is doing to Danny. I'm sorry Danielle... But I have a feeling pretty soon..."
She dramatically knocked over Danielle's piece again, and set it down with a loud thud.
"Checkmate. Game over," she whispered quietly. Danielle's eyes began to water.
"Vl-Vlad's not really going to...will he?"
Jazz bit her lip.
"Dani... You don't know Vlad. He will," she said. "I'm sorry."
Danielle had a look on shock on her face.
"We have to warn Danny."
