Chapter 27: Endless Rage Part 1
Plasmius turned intangible as Hulk shot at him only to be surprised as Hulk slammed him into the wall as Walker's troops came in. "Well what are you waiting for?" Plasmius asked with a glare as he managed to get himself out.
Raising their batons, they charged at Hulk.
"Get away!" Hulk roared as he backhanded a couple of them through the wall before one electrocuted him. "RRRRRAAAAGGHHH!"
Grabbing the one that electrocuted him, Hulk knocked him into the ground before stomping on him, causing a small crater to appear.
'He's stronger then I thought.' Plasmius mused as he watched the troops get decimated pretty easily before Hulk narrowed his eyes on him.
"HULK SMASH!" Hulk roared as he lunged at Plasmius who turned intangible and went through the floor as Hulk landed where he was. "GET BACK HERE!"
Plasmius however came up behind him and made four duplicates before firing his ecto energy at the Hulk burning his jade green skin causing him to roar in pain.
But as quickly as he was burning him, Plasmius saw that the Hulk was healing just as fast. 'Not only does his rage give him incredible strength, but it makes him invincible as well.' He thought in intrigue.
Coming at Plasmius despite the burns appearing, Hulk slammed two of the duplicates away before grabbing the third and ripping it apart.
Plasmius frowned, wary of the Hulk now that his intangibility won't work.
Perhaps Gamma Radiation has an unhealthy effect on Ghosts.
Turning invisible, Hulk narrowed his eyes as he tried to see where Plasmius was.
"You are an astounding creature." Plasmius said his voice echoing around Hulk. "You would make a great addition to my army."
Hearing that, Hulk growled. "All Hulk wants is to be left alone." He said to Plasmius.
"Even if I can give you control full time instead of Banner?" Plasmius asked knowing fully well that Hulk and Bruce Banner were two very different people.
Hulk paused before Bruce's voice came in.
"Don't, he's trying to trick you." Bruce said to Hulk. "All he wants is your power."
"Hulk not fall for it." Hulk promised Bruce as Plasmius frowned before appearing behind Hulk with the Plasmius Claws that he made specially for Daniel.
"Well then how about I show you." Plasmius said causing Hulk to turn as he jammed the claws in to Hulk and using his powers, separated Hulk and Banner.
Bruce landed on the ground painfully as he groaned. "What-?" He muttered turning only for his eyes to widen at seeing the Hulk himself standing a few feet away hunched over.
The strange part was instead of being green, Hulk was gray now.
"Well, well, well looks like it works." Plasmius said with a smirk as he tested out his invention and has the blood of the Hulk on it as a bonus.
"H-Hulk?" Bruce asked only to pause.
He could still feel the Hulk inside of him, but if that was the case who was inside the Hulk body?
The Hulk slowly stood up before turning with a souless look in his eyes.
"Did I keep my promise or what-?" Plasmius asked before Hulk's fist slammed into his face knocking him into the wall.
Giving a roar, Hulk lunged at Plasmius only for the man to go intangible and phase through the floor.
As the Hulk landed, creating another crater, Plasmius appeared next to Banner who glared at him.
"Do you realize what you just did?!" Bruce asked angrily as the real Hulk was growling inside him.
"Made a slight error." Plasmius muttered about ready to have his army kill the Hulk.
"You didn't separate Hulk and I, you separated Hulk from his emotions except for rage." Bruce said to him. "Without any other emotions, he won't care about anything but tearing this place apart along with whoever is in here."
Their talk was interrupted when Hulk tackled Plasmius leaving Bruce enough time to run.
He had to find a way to fix this, but first he needs to find out where the hell he was.
"Get off of me!" Plasmius blasted the Hulk only for the Gray Goliath to punch him hard enough to send him flying across the Ghost Zone in a daze.
Hulk was about to give chase only for a rocket to hit him and he slammed into the ground.
Pushing himself up, Hulk turned to see Skulktech along with Walker and Fright Knight with an army behind him.
"You would do well to surrender." Fright Knight warned only for Hulk to grin.
0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0
Plasmius coughed up ectoplasm in pain as he could hear the Hulk's roar and the noise of fighting.
"Stronger then I thought." Plasmius said spitting the ectoplasm out as he held his chest in pain.
He wasn't expecting that flaw in his Plasmius Claws.
And now his empire was in danger.
... Along with the entire Ghost Zone.
Plasmius snarled only to see Banner on the move and it was obvious he didn't know where he was so Plasmius swooped in and grabbed him. "How do we kill it?!"
"You can't kill the Hulk." Bruce said glaring at him. "Many have tried."
"Nothing is invincible." Plasmius said at him.
"The only thing that can stop him is me when we're together." Bruce said to Plasmius. "And unless you have something that can put us back together, you killed everyone here."
Plasmius paused as he remembered a detail. "I know someone who can help." He said remembering Daniels Fenton Dream Catcher.

"Alright, Renegades Strike!" Danny ordered as they were doing a team training now that Nyx had her energy back.
He just came back from his visit with Wanda and it seemed like a good idea to do some training.
They had the AIM Droids with holographic images of them being various criminals they've fought in the past like Taskmaster, MODOK, Kimura, Skulker and Frost.
John made some modifications to allow them to fight like the real ones once being told enough about some of them and made Kimura more durable to allow Laura to have a challenge.
Danny was honestly surprised when Laura asked for one of them to be Kimura as well as Nyx asking for Frost but he didn't argue because he figured they wanted to try and get over certain parts of their past or recent events that have happened.
Ray wanted Taskmaster and John added MODOK after Danny told him about the guy so Danny added how Skulktech used to be.
Taz didn't add anything because he said he wasn't going to be staying for long.
He was planning on leaving the next day much to their confusion.
But he wanted to watch to see their training as well as to keep Cujo out of it.
"Didn't you say that when we were fighting La Magra?" Ray asked using his speed to dodge the attacks by Taskmaster.
"When I was fourteen I used to have a battle cry whenever I fought other Ghosts." Danny admitted sheepishly blocking a rocket from Skulker. "I kind of missed that and after that incident with Frost, I figured why not?"
"What was your battle cry?" Nyx asked curiously teleporting before Frost could use his speed to take her down.
"... I'm Going Ghost." Danny muttered causing Taz who was on the sidelines to snigger.
"Going Ghost?" Laura asked blocking a strike from Kimura.
"It started out as me telling my friends to cover me." Danny told them with a shake of his head. "But overtime I've grown fond of saying it whenever I got to fight as Phantom."
"It's pretty groovy." John said using his arm to hack back at MODOK who was attempting to hack him.
"Alright then, Talon and Forge Fastball Special!"
"Got it." Laura said as she jumped and landed on John's arm that shifted into some sort of gun that he just added.
"This is still insane." John commented as the gun powered up.
"Just fire." Laura said as John shot Laura forward with her claws out, tearing through the MODOK mech that fell down as it was deemed 'dead'.
"Our turn." Ray said as he and Nyx got ready with him forming the air compressed ball that he made during the fight against La Magra.
Using her Chaos Magic, Nyx powered up the ball as it spun fast allowing Ray to throw it at Frost causing it to implode on hitting him, taking him out of the fight.
"Chaos Orb wins again." Nyx said with a giggle.
"Why is it whenever you name something it has Chaos in it." Ray deadpanned earning a pout from Nyx.
"Because Chaos is awesome." Nyx said to him.
"It sounds better then what Danny calls our move." Laura said as Danny rolled his eyes.
"Come on, it's a classic name." Danny said with a laugh as he used an ecto sword to decapitate Skulker allowing the mech to fall over.
All that was left was Taskmaster and Kimura.
Danny and Laura decided to tag-team Kimura while John, Ray and Nyx went after Taskmaster.
"You seem to be working more on killing this one." Danny commented as Laura clawed at the arm leaving a small mark, but it showed she was injuring it.
"That's why I've decided for Kimura be one when you gave the choice." Laura said glaring at the face. "Thankfully, this one actually shuts up."
"So true." Danny said remembering how Kimura spoke when they first met and he hated her for it.
Using his cryo energy, Danny froze everything up to Kimura's neck allowing Laura to 'kill' her the same was as last time with the claws in between the eyes.
Despite it being three on one, John did a good job with having this Taskmaster react how the real one would because he was countering everything they've thrown at him, only hitting him with new moves.
But they finally managed to beat him when Nyx used her Chaos Magic to knock Taskmaster off his feet allowing for John to blast him with the arm cannon and having him slam into the wall, taking him out.
"Well that was quite the workout." Danny said with a grin as they were all panting. "Great job everyone."
"Yes, great job indeed." A familiar voice caused all of them to pause before they spun around to see Plasmius giving a slow clap.
"Plasmius!" Danny said his eyes flashing red as everyone got ready while Taz blinked at seeing this guy for the first time. "How did you find us?!"
"And how did you not set off our alarm?!" John asked in confusion.
"A little help from you." Plasmius said as he pressed a button causing Danny to be electrocuted by the tracker placed discretely on him. "As for your alarm, it was pitiful."
"Danny!" John shouted in worry as Ray zipped to Plasmius to grab the remote.
Turning intangible, Plasmius smirked as Ray shot through him but the boy did a wall jump expecting Plasmius to turn tangible only for him to blast Ray back with Ecto Energy.
"Calm yourselves, I only came to talk." Plasmius said as he stopped electrocuting Danny causing the teen to fall to one knee.
"You have a funny way of showing that." Laura said wanting to run him through with her claws.
"This is only insurance that you don't attack me while we talk." Plasmius said holding the remote as Ray was helped up by Taz. "Ah yes the new boy of your team."
"What do you want Plasmius?!" Danny asked pushing himself.
"He said you can help me." Bruce said showing himself and he was openly glaring at Plasmius for what he just did.
"No way, you're Bruce Banner." John said in shock at recognizing him. "I've read about your Gamma Radiation Theories and Nuclear Physics."
"You understood that?" Bruce asked in surprise as John gave a nod.
"What type of help do you need?" Taz asked with a glare not trusting the doctor.
"... How much do you know of the Hulk?" Bruce asked causing some eyes to widen.
"What about him?" Danny asked looking between the two.
"I'm the Hulk or at least I was." Bruce said surprising them further. "This guy here used some sort of weapon to separate us-."
"Was it a gauntlet with claws?" Danny interrupted earning a surprised look from Bruce as the Gamma Scientist gave a nod.
"Yes, that's what it was."
"I was merely testing it." Plasmius said hiding the real reason he used them.
"And your experiment caused the Hulk to go on a rampage." Bruce said angrily before looking back at the teens.
Bruce felt conflicted about involving teenagers, especially since one of them looked like a child, in an issue with the Hulk, but he didn't know who else to turn to.
If he tried looking for any other help the Military will take him in not believing that he wasn't the Hulk anymore.
"This guy said that you had a way of fusing us back together." Bruce said and Danny frowned.
"We do." Danny said surprising everyone but John who got what he was saying. "But it's not finished."
"Just tell me what to do." Ray said knowing how serious this was from the rumors he's heard about the Hulk. "I'll get it done quickly."
"Forge, you and Speed Demon get it done as quickly as you can, Doctor Banner you stay here to help." Danny ordered slipping into what Nyx called Leader Mode. "Talon you're with me in the Ghost Zone."
"What about me?!" Nyx asked annoyed at not being included.
"You might be healing but you're still injured from the fight against La Magra." Danny said not missing Plasmius's eyes widened at hearing that.
'La Magra? That legend was real and Daniel fought him?' Plasmius thought in shock before smirking. 'He never ceases to impress me.'
"That explains her, but why not me?" Taz asked walking up.
"I thought you were leaving today." Danny said in confusion.
"I was, but this is something you might need help with." Taz said flexing his claws and canines. "So count me in."
"Alright." Danny said before turning to Plasmius. "I don't trust you here so you are coming with us."
"One thing." Ray zoomed around Danny before finding the tracker. "Got it."
"Thanks." Danny said as Plasmius glared. "If you try anything that puts my team in danger, I will kill you."
"You can try." Plasmius said in a drawl.

Skulktech snarled as he shot his rockets at Hulk covering him in smoke.
It was a long fight with the Hulk taking down the army they brought so it was only the three of them left.
"That takes care of that." Skulktech snarked thinking it was over only for Hulk to lung out of the smoke and rip his arm off. "GYAH!"
Trying to back up so he could bring his blades out, Hulk grabbed him by the waist and ripped him in half causing Skulktech to scream in agony as Hulk tossed him to the side when Walker got behind Hulk and tried to subdue him by putting him in a choke hold.
Snarling, Hulk jumped into the air hitting the ceiling, knocking the air out of Walker before grabbing him and pile driving him into the ground making the guy cough up ectoplasm.
Raising his fist to finish Walker, a dark blade cut through Hulk's arm causing him to bellow in pain.
"What?" Fright Knight was on edge seeing this creature take Skulktech and Walker out like they were nothing. "Why aren't you facing your fear?!"
Turning as his wound from the sword healed up, Hulk roared and lunged at Fright Knight who was smart enough to retreat into the ground to dodge.
Landing on the ground, Hulk felt Fright Knight grab his feet and pull him into the ground up to his chest.
"That should hold you-." Fright Knight began only for Hulk to rip through the ground with chunks of it in his skin showing blood flowing from the wounds.
Fright Knight was too shocked to react as Hulk punched him through three walls with his helmet all dented and ectoplasm leaking out.
"HULK STRONGEST THERE IS!" Hulk roared only to hear what sounded like a Guitar and he turned for sound waves to blast him back.
"Is that so?" A blue skinned teenage Ghost girl with flaming blue hair, wearing a black sleeveless midriff and black pants.
Giving a roar at her, Hulk charged only for Ember McLain to change the dial on her Guitar and played a note making a pink ecto fist appear and slam into Hulk making him land on the ground.
"What's the matter Jumbo?" Ember taunted with a smirk. "Too tough on your ears?"
Hulk gritted his teeth at the insult as Ember changed the dial again.
"How about an encore?!" With that Ember slammed her hand on the string playing another note making a wave of energy fly at Hulk who calmly slammed his hands together making his own vibration, destroying it and making Ember fly back. "Oh so you do have some fight in you."
Running at her, Ember quickly dissipated in purple smoke and reappeared in the air flying on her guitar.
"You're all brawn, Jumbo." Ember said with a smirk as Hulk turned towards her. "Now I think it's time for the Finale!"
This time fire came out of the Guitar and Hulk jumped through it surprising Ember who went to swing her Guitar, but Hulk caught it and crushed it.
"MY GUITAR!" Ember's eyes flashed red only for Hulk to backhand her sending her flying into the wall, knocking her out.

Danny frowned as they were in the Specter Speeder and Plasmius was 'kind' enough to give them the footage coming from his Empire and he saw how easily the Hulk took down some of his greatest enemies.
"Tell me something." Danny said as the Speeder was on auto-pilot and he turned the video off. "The Hulk is doing such a good job of destroying your Empire, why should I stop him?"
Plasmius glared but he had to applaud Danny's way of thinking.
He's gotten more ruthless over the years.
Seeing that he along with Talon and Taz were waiting for an answer, Plasmius chuckled as if Danny told a funny joke.
"Do you think the Hulk will stop at my Empire?" Plasmius asked with a smirk making Danny frown. "Sure you could choose to let him do this but how about when he goes after Dora or Frostbite?"
Seeing that he had Danny's full attention, Plasmius smirked.
"So you see, you need my Empire to stop the Hulk." Plasmius said before Danny's fist glowed.
"Because of a mess you caused." Danny said glaring at him. "This is just Pariah Dark all over again you fruitloop."
"Geez, I can see why you don't like this guy." Taz muttered to Talon who gave a nod.

"Is that a dream catcher?" Bruce asked as he began helping John and Ray in the lab while Nyx was sitting on the table in annoyance.
"Danny say's that it's design to separate matter but it can also put them back together." John explained to Bruce. "It's not finished but with our resident Speedster here, we can get it done in no time."
"Except it's too small." Bruce interrupted earning wary looks from them.
"What?" Ray asked as Bruce looked at them.
"I'm guessing for it to work, both Hulk and I have to go in?" Bruce asked as they gave a nod. "Hulk won't even fit in there."
"So we make it bigger." Nyx answered not seeing the problem before John cursed.
"It's not just that Nyx, we have to redesign the whole thing for it to work and that could take hours." John said making Nyx's eyes widen at the problem.
"We don't have hours." Ray argued as he began using his speed to get some tools out. "We have to get this done as quickly as possible."
"That's too bogue, Ray." John said shaking his head. "You can't just rush it or we could end up making it worse then it already is."
"Great." Nyx muttered and Bruce looked at her in confusion.
"You alright?" Bruce asked since he was out of the loop on some of this stuff.
"Yes." Nyx answered quickly.
"She's annoyed that she's on the sidelines." Ray called out earning a look from Nyx.
"Shut it!" She shouted hurling a blast of chaos magic that Ray ducked with a chuckle.
"Alright then, maybe it's because Cujo left the base for a bit?" Ray suggested and Nyx shook her head.
"It's just... Why didn't my glyphs go off when Plasmius came?" Nyx asked causing them all to stop while Bruce just looked confused. "There was no interference from the wards, so how?"
"We'll look into it when we get past this situation." John promised her.

Dani landed on the ground in front of the Castle as the portal from Vlad's mansion closed behind her. "Dad?" She called looking around before she heard felt the ground shake as something landed behind her.
Spinning around, Dani gasped as the Hulk was behind her and he roared before lunging at her.
To Be Continued...
Well it's been awhile since I've updated this story, am I right?
But anyways I hope you enjoyed the first chapter to the Endless Rage Arc as well as how things are going with the characters since the Power Play Arc.
The fight against the Hulk will all be in the Ghost Zone for the most part so the world won't find out about the Renegades yet.
And I bet you were surprised that I brought the Gray Hulk in, a shout-out to his original color in the comics.
I'll try to get the next chapter out soon, but I've also been working on some other stories including two brand new ones.
Plasmid Persona: A Bioshock and Persona 4 crossover with a teenage Jack Ryan who arrives in Inaba right after the mess in Rapture.
Harry Potter and the Creepypasta Family: A story about the Boy who lived becoming a Serial Killer and joining the legends of the Creepypasta, should be an interesting read.
I've also been going over the Renegade's chapter and I made some corrections and small changes to them, I'll be uploading them a little bit later.
Alright, it's Review Time!
TheWhiteTitan: So true with it not being a good thing for the Renegades, but it is always awesome to have him appear.
Scheffelman: Probably after the Endless Rage Arc.
JP-Rider: Eventually she may defect from Vlad but it won't be for awhile and sure to your PM question.
DragonSword35d: Haha, how did you know I had that planned?
Shugokage: Thanks and hopefully you enjoyed this one as well.
Darkromdemon: Sorry for the wait and hopefully you liked this one.
Coldblue: Thanks, it was hard to decide how everyone would react in the aftermath because typing a realistic psychologic reaction is tough, especially keeping up with it. I'm happy you liked how Dani was in the last chapter, and the incident with the Hulk forced Vlad to reveal his tracer a bit sooner then planned. Yeah, I figured it was a great time to bring Cujo in and I figured since he was a Ghost Dog he would occassionally disappear like in this chapter to do his own thing. I would honestly be surprised if you knew anything about Shift in the Ultimates since he's one of the OC's that will appear soon. Thanks, I was worried I didn't type Bruce Banner well because that was the first time I've typed him.
Now for your questions. 1) Eventually yes they will. 2) Maaaaayyyyyyybbeeeeee. 3) Yes he will once this is done with. 4) They will after Danny uses it in the fight against the Hulk. 5) Now that is an awesome image. 6) He will to try and make peace between the Vampires and the Renegades. 7) Of course he has. 8) When they find out the dangers of using the Ecto Suit they will know and try to avoid having something like that happen again. 9) Yes it will, but it won't beat the Hulk, just last longer. 10) Yes and yes. 11) Probably after the Reality Gauntlet incident. 12) Janet will appear before, but Hellraiser will appear in Season 2, or earlier if I can make it work. 13) They'll be wary of him, but on good terms because of how it happened. 14) After the Endless Rage Arc. 15) I'm thinking that during the fight, both an armored Danny and the Hulk go through a natural portal and end up in a desert and Shield see's them on their cameras and when that happens, they all will be surprised that something like this began without them knowing about it. 16) He will be intrigued by how far Danny and his team came as well as confident with the information he will gather with this small team-up turning his miscalculation into a good advantage. 17) Good idea for their future weapons, I'll take them into consideration.
DannyPhantom619: Don't know about that one and considering you're an Ember fan I hope you liked her cameo in this chapter, she will have a bigger appearance in later chapters.
Taz-the-monster: Thank you for both of them.
KuriMaster13: Yup and hopefully you liked this update.
NightMaster000: Thanks, I figured due to Nyx's age she would show a lot of vulnerability due to what happened with nearly being sacrificed, no one would escape that without some psychological trauma. Cujo will stick around after coming back in the next chapter and both he and Ying will have some... Problems but they'll get along for Nyx. I was planning on bringing Lockhead in for the X-Men because I thought that Dragon was cool. I figured for the Ultimates why not have the possible members be the most badass anti-heroes I can find? I needed a reason for the Ultimates to form and figured why not for Roman from the Kree? Don't know if I'll bring the Guardians in yet or not. Well it was originally planned for much later, but I figured Vlad's miscalculation with the Hulk would make him reveal it sooner in order to ensure they don't attack him. Just small things to show Forge's past before his Loyalty Mission with Taz's coming up soon. The story with Taz's father was planned for quite awhile and you'll see what his choice will be soon. Lou Chan's meeting with Osborn? Probably more. He'll use it to his advantage eventually. I'm sticking with the comics first because in this story the Hulk has only been around for nearly two years and has only been out when being attacked so it's understandable that he's not like the EMH version... Yet that is. Reality Gauntlet will happen after the Endless Rage Arc.
Inviso-Al: You'll see. The Hulk and hopefully you enjoyed this chapter.
PhantomWorks-Stories Division: I took the Ultimate Dark Knight off because I was getting nowhere with it and thanks, I'm happy that this story is a good reimagining of the characters.
Matt: Actually it's been planned ever since I got his character PM'd to me after typing the first chapter to this story.
VibrantPeace: Thanks, I'm happy you like two of the OC's I've shown so far. Actually the Townsville part was a reference to my Spider-Man Z story considering it was a conversation between two beings who can see across dimensions. Well I update whenever I can on this story but I also have other stories I try to focus on at the same time.
Harpy81: Yes there will be.
Marco2o: Thanks.
Manblast10: I'm happy to hear that.
Phantom Fan: Yes Ghost Rider will have the Motorcycle and yes Phantom will end up using the Ecto Skeleton on the Hulk.
Guest20: I may do that, thank you but Laura asking Danny out won't happen yet because she wants to get her thoughts sorted out first.
Werewolfboy: Maybe... I don't know if I'll do that or not.
BlackRoseFire: Thanks and hopefully you enjoyed this update.
