Oh boy, so much to get done this long weekend, and thank god I put this on my to-do list twice otherwise this story will never get done before or on my birthday. Well, not that I'm going to have over two hours to myself on my birthday but you should know what I mean…right? Like you have school on your birthday then you have a big dinner party and then after the party you just want to play around with the new presents you just got and all that.

Back on track, this is the second last chapter of the story and then another one either tomorrow or on my birthday, whenever I remember and have time to do it that is before the end of my birthday (Wednesday).

When the weekend arrived, Danny finally had a moment to himself. His parents couldn't stop cheering over the television since Vlad was showing fake pictures of Danny Phantom doing horrible things. His parents insisted on Danny watching it, Jack couldn't stop boasting about it that Danny almost screamed at one stage.

He slouched in his swiveling blue chair and flicked his pencil at the mirror that hung on the wall near the desk, he wanted to do something to stop this humiliation but if he tried then he would lose the one ad only chance to save the world with unfortunately his arch nemesis.

After he sat lazily in his chair for about another four minutes, he got up and called Chris.

"Danny, what have you been doing for the past three days? I tried to contact you but you wouldn't answer."

Danny didn't reply back, instead he exhaled loudly out his nose.

"I'm guessing your life sucks at the moment."

"Yep, and Vlad said he's giving me an additional two more days of humiliation until he actually helps us in return."

Chris hummed in thought. "What if he's just doing this for his own benefit? You know you don't trust him, right?"

"Of course I know that, he's my archenemy. "

"Are you sure you want to go rough this for another two days? What if the world ends that day?" Chris thought with caution and seriousness.

Danny sighed. "Unfortunately he won't help if I ask for help now. So I'll talk to him before school on Monday."

"But-"

Danny cut the phone and threw it onto his bed; it bounced gently onto the quilt which had not been made. Danny got up and looked out the window, it was a starry night. He couldn't believe that other people were so blind to notice the sudden changes in the night sky. But something that was about to happen will change the world's view of this quite dramatically.

The night sky rattled and shook in every direction, it was as if the Earth was spinning faster but in different directions all at once, Danny felt the gravity surge push him down to the ground and so did everyone else, You could hear screams and moans a mile away.

"That's it!" Danny yelled top himself while forcefully trying to get himself up. "He's gone too far! It's time for action!"

He transformed with his fists midway in the air and his teeth showing as a growl of anger was released. His intense expression showed it all, his black hair blew all about as it turned pearl white. The second the rings disappeared he flew out the window and off to where Vlad normally is around about now. At the McMasters.

And not a moment too soon, Vlad was sitting at his desk in his large swivel chair writing up some final financial papers and few other papers Danny wouldn't understand anything about yet.

"Time's up Plasmius!" Danny shouted as his ghostly wail penetrated the McMasters and blew Vlad's room to shreds

"I don't think so boy, it's merely beginning." He said almost silently as two black rings appeared from his chest and separated to show his hideous ghost self.

They began to fight, but it wasn't helping the shaking and gravity surges that were interfering with Danny and Vlad's fight.

"Stop this Daniel! I can help you out I won't if you continue being this way to me!"

"So, that's what you want?" Danny shouted as he flew a ball of green ecto energy at Vlad.

He managed to dodge it. "Yes."

After a few moments Danny gave Vlad a confused and suspicious expression but eventually let out a deep sigh and shook his hand in agreement.

"Okay, but can you please stop all this?"

"Now that you've proven that you'll be nice to me from now on and if you don't, I'll get things back the way they were."

Danny was in no mood to fight; he was exhausted and just wanted all this to end. "Just please, fix everything." He stated silently as he closed his eyes.

"Of course, but I still need one more favor."

Danny sighed in exhaustion "What is it? Anything please, just fix this mess."

"Help me, and never mention it to anyone that I needed your help."

Danny could see the seriousness in his eyes; he knew he was telling the truth about him requesting his help. He looked down in thought then looked up back at the pale blue face that resembled Vlad Plasmius. "Okay, I'll help. Just this once though."

"Excellent. Now, we need to the centre of the Milky Way along with the rest of the ghost zone, you collect all the ghosts while I find some astronomical equipment for us and Danielle, if you can find her that is."

Danny nodded with no expression then quickly flew off to find his friends and family.

And not a moment too soon, he had Sam, Jazz and Chris bundle up in the specter speeder; Tucker unfortunately couldn't come due to the disaster which was currently at stake.

"So what are we doing exactly?" Jazz asked while watching the ghost zone flash by.

"We have to round up all these ghosts from the ghost zone and wherever else they could be in our world." Danny explained while flying close by the specter speeder.

"But, what for?" Chris wondered with slight confusion.

"I don't know, but he wants me and these ghosts to meet up later in front of the NASA rocket launcher and then apparently we're going to the centre of the Milky Way."

Chris gasped with astonishment and disbelief. "But, you can't journey to the centre of our galaxy! It's far too hot! Even hotter than our neighboring star might I add, and it's over 500 million light years away!" He stated with an amount of hand gestures.

Jazz smiled quickly after she revised that statement in her head. "Chris, did you tell us that we're moving closer towards the centre of the Milky Way?"

"Oh...yeah. But you still won't be able to get there in time! And do you even know what's at the centre of a Milky Way?"

"Isn't there a huge black hole?" Sam wondered raising her hand in a gesture way.

"Yes!" Chris quickly replied while looking at Danny outside the specter speeder. "Danny, you just can't, even our greatest technology won't keep you from that amount of heat. We can't even do that with lava and that's 1/600 of that heat of the centre!"

Danny's expression was cute but yet confusing at the same time, his eyes widened at just the thought and his lips close together both horizontally and vertically.

"Well, unfortunately I'm just going to have to collect all these ghosts and see what Vlad's going to do."

"Your choice, Danny." Chris replied in a serious tone

The final chapter as far as I know will be jam-packed with a whole heap of action and then happiness. There's also something else happening in the next chapter in which should align with the actual series itself.

OMG so exciting! I've already got the chapter planned out in my head! :D

Next update: Either tomorrow (Tuesday 11th, or my birthday (12th)
