Chapter XXVII: Extermination


Danny looked up in shock as The Reaper towered over him and his entire army. The Reaper stared down at them; the gaze that came from the glowing green slit that was its visor felt like it was burning right through them. The Reaper then turned it's gaze towards Danny; like it was acquiring a target; hunting for prey. The Reaper then started to rise; like it was taking a deep breath in. The Reaper then opened its mechanical maw and a cannon ejected from it; a sphere of light building from the end. The gears clicked in his mind; it was about to shoot at them; he looked to see the other's had come to this realization as well; acting quickly The Fentons and Valerie moved out of the way; The Fright Knight and Frostbite grabbed Danielle and Danny still carrying Sam dodged as The Reaper unleashed it's attack.

A blinding beam of yellow shot out of The Reaper's mouth. Hitting the area where Phantom and the others stood seconds ago. The Reaper then turned its head; looking towards the rest of Phantom's army; the beam following. Other ghosts were not so lucky or quick to dodge as the beam hit them. They screamed in pain and horror for only a second before their entire bodies vanished from existence; like they were brutally torn apart molecule by molecule. After a few seconds the beam shut off and the Reaper closed its mouth; Danny, his allies and surviving army looked at the damage the Reaper had caused.

There was a neat line cut into the Earth where the beam touched; like an eraser had been used on a landscape drawing. There was absolutely no sign of any ghosts that had been hit; it was like they were atomized out of existence. The Ghost army started to recover and started to fire Ghost rays and their weapons at The Reaper; their shots however were either absorbed by or bounced off The Reaper. The Reaper turned its attention back to The Ghost Army; raising it's wings; showing off its weaponry.

"ECTOPLASMIC ENTITES DETECTED: PREPARE FOR EXTERMINATION!" The mechanical beast roared.

The Reaper then fired its weapons upon Phantom's army. Plates on its back slide off and rocket launchers erupted from within The Reaper's body; launching them towards the ghosts. The Ghost army had little warning and even fewer time to react; several were cut down by the guns; others were blown out of the air by missiles. Danny, knowing he had to help the ghosts and people of Amity Park placed Sam against the wreckage of the GAV. Frostbite and The Fright Knight were still protecting Danielle and The Fentons and Valerie had also recovered.

"What the heck is that?" Valerie asked.

"I believe they called it a Reaper." Frostbite answered.

"Yeah but what about that death laser; what was that?"

"It was a Particle Cannon." Maddie said.

"A what?" Danny asked.

"A Particle Cannon; a weapon that uses a high energy beam of atomic or subatomic particles to damage a target by disrupting it's atomic or molecular structure."

"English please." Dani asked.

"It tears things apart molecule by molecule." Jack answered.

"So those ghosts..." Sam said in shock.

"They never had a chance; Ghost Hunters have researched the possibility of using particle weapons to hunt ghosts because a particle beam would be the only other thing except Ectoplasm that could hurt a ghost due to the fact that you still have an atomic structure; however they were quickly dismissed as dangerous because they can overheat easily and explode; not to mention the consequences of missing your target." Maddie said.

"Figures the GIW would use a dangerous weapon; you said it could explode; is there any way we can use that to our advantage." Danny asked.

"Probably not; first of all you don't want a particle weapon exploding; and secondly since it stopped firing it's reasonable to assume that after each blast it has to recharge; a cannon of that size would use a lot of power; plus recharging would also cool down the weapon preventing it from overheating."

"Well we need to do something; it's tearing our army apart." Sam said.

"Sam you're still to hurt to take on something like that; you and Dani stay here; we'll figure something out." Danny said.

"If you think I'm just going to sit here while you're taking on that th-"

"Sam please; I thought I lost you once already; I don't want to lose you again; please stay here and be safe."

"Bu-"

"Please."

Sam looked Danny in the eyes; he was practically on his knee's pleading with her to stay put. He did have a point though she was still to hurt and weak from her encounter with The GIW and The Doctor to really help anyone; she would just be an easy target on the battlefield; giving Danny a distraction that could cause him to make a fatal mistake. She just wanted to help Danny; but for now he was right and the best way to help him was by not giving him distractions; plus she still didn't really know if she was pregnant or not; she would have to take a test or something. But if she is indeed pregnant then she was walking for two; and she couldn't fight if it might cost her a child.

"Okay; I'll stay put; just take the GIW down and come back safe alright."

"Don't worry we will; Fright Knight; stay here and protect my family with your life."

"Your word is my command my King; as long as I breathe no one shall bring them harm."

"Thank you; the rest of us will take down The GIW ultimate weapon."

"So what's the plan of attack?" Valerie asked.

"Simple; attack; find a weakness."

Danny then activated his visor and faceplate before jumping into the air and flying towards The Reaper. Valerie was following on her board behind him while Frostbite and The Fentons ran towards the army on foot. Danny could see that the army was in compete disarray; the citizens from Amity were being escorted away for safety; the ghosts in the air were becoming exhausted by having to dodge all the missiles and rays. He could see Tyrant charging towards The Reaper; only for the Reaper to raise a leg and swing it around; swatting Tyrant to the ground like he was a bothersome fly. So many ghosts and some humans had already been killed or lay on the ground dying; Danny had to do something; he turned his attention back to the Reaper; only to have his vision blocked by a black object.

Danny was trying to comprehend what had happened to him within the last few seconds. First his army was being attacked by The Reaper and he was going to attack it. The next thing he knew he was flying through the air in the opposite direction; a hand grabbing his face; someone had grabbed him. The figure who grabbed Danny thrusted him downwards; sending him into the pavement and dragging him against it; tearing up a nice straight line in the ground. The figure then picked Danny back and threw him forwards. Danny felt himself smack against a wall before; creating a hole in it; and fall to the ground. Danny quickly took in his surroundings; he was back inside the GIW base. Danny quickly recovered and turned to face his attacker; there standing in the newly formed hole was The Bounty Hunter.

Danny stood up and fired a Ghost Ray at The bounty Hunter. The Hunter simply jumped out of the way; grapping an Ecto-Blaster and firing at Phantom. Danny conjured up a shield which absorbed the blasts; Danny then looked to see the hunter hand vanished. Danny looked around waiting for the hunter to sneak up behind him and take him out. The hunter however watched his target from above; a blade popped out of the gauntlet on his arm; and he prepared to strike. Danny; thanks to his enhanced hearing heard the blade pop out. Danny quickly looked up to see The Bounty Hunter coming at him from above; acting quickly Danny pulled out his blade and raised it in the air; deflecting the Bounty Hunter's attack. The Bounty Hunter landed on the ground and started to swing his blade; sending Danny on the defensive.

Danny frowned; he didn't have time for this; while he was battling this hunter ghosts and people were getting killed by The Reaper. Danny swung his blade; only to have it deflected by The Hunter's; Danny thing took the opportunity swing around and kick The Hunter in the chest; sending him back a few feet. Danny readied his blade and charged towards the hunter; he needed to finish this soon; every second he wasn't out there was probably a matter of life and death to some. Danny swung his blade only to have The Hunter deflect it downwards; The Hunter then used his free hand to deliver a bunch to Phantom's face. Danny was caught off guard and stumbled back a few feet; giving the Hunter and opportunity to strike. Danny acting quickly phased through the floor as The Hunter's blade slashed at empty air. The Hunter knowing the trick; having seen it before quickly turned around and raised his blade; deflecting another swing as Danny reappeared.


Frostbite quickly threw up an ice shield; only to have it quickly shatter as a missile blasted it apart. The force also sent him crashing to the ground. Jack and Maddie quickly ran over to make sure the yeti ghost was okay. They were still battling the Reaper; however it seemed more like slaughter. Nothing The Ghosts seemed to be doing was working. Ghost rays were either absorbed by it or bounced off its plating. They couldn't phase through the armor or break it; The Fenton's deduced that its armor was multilayered of various different dense metals; the same type they use to make Fenton Thermos's; to make sure no ghost could break out or in this case in. They could barely get close to the thing; it would pick up ghosts on its scanners and blast them out of the air; the lucky ones were able to dodge and retreat. Sam; Dani and The Fright Knight were watching the scene from the wreckage of the Fenton's GAV.

"Mom we have to do something."

"I know Dani; but I'm in no condition to do anything."

"But I am; I could help."

"No Dani; you are not going up against that thing; I can't believe you're father even brought you here at all."

"Well it's like I told him; if he left me behind I would just follow him anyways; so it was easier for him to just bring me along; plus I can handle myself."

"I know you can it's just..."

"You want me to stay safe; I know; I just want to help."

"Well there might be something I can do from here."

Sam looked towards The Reaper; she said she wouldn't fight it; she couldn't in her condition but maybe she didn't have to. Sam used her power to talk to the plants; it was weak and it was actually hurting her to use it but she was able to call three giant vines to lend them aid. The vines erupted from the ground around The Reaper. The Reaper had little time to detect them and react; the vines lunged forward and started to coil around The Reaper's legs. Sam however started to get a really bad headache; it was hurting her to use her powers as soon as the vines managed to trip The Reaper; causing it to fall to the ground she severed her control over the vines; which quickly retreated back into the Earth. Sam felt liquid under her nose and touched it to see that she was having a ghost nosebleed; which was the same as a normal nose bleed except instead of blood it was Ectoplasm.

"My Queen please; do not use you're powers they will only hurt you in your condition you need rest to reclaim your strength." The Fright Knight said.

"Yeah mom; I don't know much about body stuff but I know bleeding from your nose is not normal; plus you did it; you took it down." Dani said.

They all looked back at The Reaper; expecting to see it on the ground; however their spirits lowered when they saw panels on the legs shift and turn. Suddenly jet boosters on the back of the Reaper and on its legs activated. The Reaper was pushed off of the ground for a couple seconds; allowing it to move its legs and pick itself back up. It quickly turned its attention back to the army and continued to fire its weapons at the ghosts and humans. Sam however was wondering; she didn't see Danny fighting anywhere; was he alright; did The Reaper get him; no it couldn't; so where was he.


Danny continued to swing his blade at The Hunter; he knew he was getting reckless by just attacking but he needed to finish this. The Hunter was starting to have trouble deflecting all the swings and Danny managed to back him into a corner. This was it Danny thought; he could finish this fight; knock The Bounty Hunter out and then go fight the Reaper. Danny had his blade deflected yet again and then grabbed his sword with both hands. He raised his blade above his head and brought it down on The Hunter. The hunter raised his blade; however this time when it made contact with Phantom's blade; it shattered. The Hunter was pushed back into the wall as Danny acted quickly and raised his blade and thrusted forward; stabbing The Hunter through the right shoulder. Danny took the moment to relax; he did it; he incapacitated The Bounty Hunter; right now the hunter was probably enjoying his worst fears turning into reality. However he was taken aback when he heard chuckling; Danny looked to see the hunter unfazed; the blade wasn't affecting him.

"You're blade doesn't work on me."

"What, impossible; I got you; you're supposed to be experiencing you're worst fears; you shouldn't even be conscious."

"That's the thing; I have no fear."

Just then the room was filled with a loud bang; however it was a bang that Danny recognized; it was the sound of a gunshot. Danny looked down to see that The bounty Hunter had grabbed a gun from his side; the end of the gun was smoking; having been fired; and it was aimed at Danny's side. Danny felt his side go cold; then burning hot as he felt liquid start to form. Danny let go of his sword and stumbled back; losing his footing and balance and falling to the ground. The Bounty Hunter then put the gun back; grabbed the end of Phantom's sword and pulled it out of his shoulder.

"But you do; you have fears; you're afraid; afraid of losing those closest to you; afraid of having your secrets reveled; afraid that you'd fail your obsession and let other's die or maybe you're afraid of becoming something you're not; as long as you have them you'll never win; fear makes you predictable; oh don't try to move; you're not dying; and you won't die either; I made sure my shot went through clean; in a few minutes you're super healing will start to kick in; then you can go and try to save those who foolishly followed you here."

"What do you want; why not just kill me here and now."

"What I want is you destroyed; I do fully intend on killing you eventually; but first I'm going to make you and all those you hold dear suffer."

"The GIW hired you to get me; but this is starting to feel personal; who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who I am; I'm just here to distract you for a few moments while The Reaper kills most if not all of your followers; and to warn you; I'm a man of my word; I will make all those you hold dear suffer before I kill them; maybe I'll start with your daughter."

"I swear if you go near her I'll..."

"You'll what kill me; we both know that you have one rule; you don't kill; not like you could kill me; anyways hope the thought of me killing your loved ones helps you sleep at night." The Bounty Hunter said as he started to walk away.

"I will stop you."

"I doubt it; we'll fight again soon Danny; it's only a matter of time."

Danny used his strength and pushed himself up; the pain in his side still burning. But he managed to get up and raise his hand firing a Ghost Ray in the direction of the Hunter. However his ray never hit its target for the hunter had vanished into thin air; like he was never there. Danny was trying to figure this out in his head; it seemed like this bounty hunter had something personal to do with him; and he was going to make him and those he holds close to him suffer. Danny knew this was going to be a huge problem; but he couldn't deal with it right now; he had to take care of The Reaper. Danny turned to the hole in the wall and quickly took to the air. He started to fly towards The Reaper; hoping it wasn't too late.

The Boss was sitting in the cockpit of The Reaper; watching as The Ghosts tried their best to take down the machine. He took to the controls and locked on to a group of yeti-like creatures; he pressed a button and seconds later a missile blew the group up; another set of ghosts down. The Boss was about to lock onto another target when his sensors picked up a uniquely strong ecto signature. The Boss didn't need to look at the sensors twice to know what the scans were picking up; it was Phantom. The Reaper turned around to see Phantom flying towards it; it quickly raises its weapons and started to fire at him. Danny started to doge; but his side was still burning with pain; there were too many shots and it wasn't long before Danny felt the force of an explosion and found himself falling to the ground.

Danny crashed into the pavement; he began to pick himself up; only to have something force him down. Danny looked to see The Reaper was pinning him to the ground using its talon-like feet. Danny tried to move but found he couldn't; he was still sore from his battle with the Bounty Hunter and this Reaper felt like it weighted a ton. Danny tried to turn intangible and phase through the Reaper; but couldn't it was like The Reaper was zapping him of his energy. Danny then noticed The Reaper's head start to look down at him; and it opened its mouth to reveal its Particle Cannon. The Particle cannon began to glow as it started to build up its power to blast. Danny could hear the shocked expressions of the surviving humans and ghosts; he could also see Sam; Dani and The Fright Knight looking in disbelief. Danny watched as the Particle Cannon continued to glow; in a few seconds; he would be ripped apart molecule by molecule.

"At last the world will be rid of you forever Phantom; you will die now!" The Boss said from The Reaper's speakers.

The Reaper was about to fire when an explosion appeared on the right of The Reaper; a shell had exploded on its metal frame. The force of the explosion was powerful enough to change the direction of the Reaper's head; forcing it upwards and firing its particle beam harmlessly into the air. The Boss roared in disbelief and anger at the waste of the attack; now he would have to wait for it to recharge again. The Reaper regained itself and turned around looking for its attacker; only to receive two more shells in the head and chest. Danny; and the rest of his surviving gathered allies turned their attention towards The Reaper's attacker. Coming over the hills; rolling down towards them came a barrage of United States Military Tanks; each of their cannon barrels aimed at The Reaper. Behind the tanks were squad's of National Guardsmen and Assault vehicles. Danny couldn't help but smile with relief at the site of them; Tucker's signal must have worked; The President must have sent help.

The Boss held tightly to the controls as the force of the exploding tank shells shook the Reaper's cockpit. He roared with frustration; he was so close; he had Phantom pinned and in his crosshairs; he was about to rid the world of Phantom's existence forever; now he was being attacked by the government he used to serve. Though nobody could see it because he was hidden within The Reaper's chest; The Boss soon showed the signs of worry and concern. The Reaper had been designed to be the perfect ghost killing machine. They were so rushed in building it due to the situation the GIW were put in that they forgot to design safeguards against their own weaponry. The Reaper was standing out in the open; and easy target for the tanks. The Boss grabbed the controls; he had to take them out before they could severely cripple The Reaper; if that happened; it would be over.

The Reaper readied itself; turning its attention towards the tanks. It raised both its wings; giving the tanks a good view of its weaponry. The Reaper also lowered itself; popping out the rocket launchers in its back. The Boss checked the controls systems in front of him again; the particle beam was still recharging. He locked on to the approaching tanks; and was about to fire his weapons when his cockpit to flash with a red light. The screen in front of him suddenly changed to tell him a message; Warning; Missile Lock.

The Boss had no time to process the message and react before The Reaper was pelted by a barrage of missiles. The force of the explosions shook the entire frame of the machine. The Reaper lost its balance and fell to the ground. Danny and the rest of his allies looked overhead as a squadron of F-22 Raptors flew over them. The Reaper started to pick itself back up; but was struggling; its metal body barley holding together. Danny looked back at the ghost killing machine; hoping that the military had shaken it up enough for him to find an opening. Then he saw it; right beneath the chest; near the lower torso; a couple of metal panels had been badly dented; they were barely holding together; if Danny could get there he could rip them off and get inside the machine; take the Boss out from within.

Before Danny could act though his concentration was broken by the sound of an explosion and screaming. Danny looked to see that The Reaper had gotten back up and was now firing its weapons at the US military; destroying one of the tanks and killing a few soldiers. Danny then realized; there were more humans in the battle now; the US military; US soldiers were now helping them take on The Reaper; and it was going to kill them for it. Danny; without thinking; charged at the Reaper; his side was still in burning pain; but he ignored it as he flew at The Reaper. The Reaper picked up Phantom's signature moving towards it; The Boss decided to ignore the Military for now as he turned his attention to Phantom. The Boss saw Phantom approaching him; he wasn't going to let him win; The Reaper started to shoot at Phantom with its Ghost Rays. Phantom however just dodged them; doing dives and flips in the air to avoid each beam of energy. Soon Danny found himself on the side of the machine itself. Danny grabbed the sides of the loose metal panels and although struggled; used his strength and ripped them off.

There was now an opening into the machine; he didn't need to phase through it; he could enter it. Danny climbed in; if he had claustrophobia he would have a hard time here. While the Reaper was big; it seemed smaller on the inside; Danny started to make his way upwards; towards the torso and cockpit. He also started to fire an occasional ghost ray and pull various wires now and then. Danny soon reached an end when he was welcomed by a big metal plate; Danny took the opportunity to phase through it. He now found himself looking in a small room; lit by small green lights and a giant computer screen. Danny then saw a chair in the front of the room; and sitting in it was the man that Sam had identified as The Boss of the Guy's in White; this man was in charge of the whole organization. All Danny had to do was take this man down and this whole nightmare would be over once and for all. Danny was about to grab the man when The Reaper violently shook at another explosion.

Danny; caught unprepared slammed into the side of the cockpit and into a weird device built into the wall. The Boss hearing this turned around to see that Phantom had somehow gotten into the machine. The Boss started to push buttons and type commands into The Reaper; sending it into an auto-pilot mode; which was eliminate all enemies. The Boss hoped out of his chair and drew a gun out from his side. Danny regained himself and stood up; however the pain in his side soon came back; causing him to grunt in pain. He looked to see The Boss approaching him; gun in hand and aimed at his head. Danny for some reason decided to look back at the object he slammed into; he was surprised when he realized what it was; it was a Fenton Ecto-Converter. Danny remembered seeing The Ghosts attacking The Reaper; it suddenly clicked in his mind.

"So that's how you did it." Danny said.

"You recognize that device?" The Boss asked.

"Yeah it's a Fenton Ecto-converter it takes Ectoplasm or Ectoplasmic Energy and turns it into power; that explains why our rays were absorbed; this was collecting them and turn our own energy into power for this machine to kill us."

"Genius isn't it; the more you fight it; the more dangerous it becomes; this whole time you've been feeding our machine with power."

"It's also one more thing you took from The Fentons."

"Enough; why am I telling you this; you've been a thorn in my side for a long time Phantom."

"I could say the same about you; you're the leader of the GIW."

"Yeah I'm the Boss; though despite all the pain you've caused us I'm glad we've met like this; in combat; like soldiers."

"The way you're decorated and act; I take it you're a proud military man."

"I am; there is nothing I love more than my country and its people and I will do anything to keep them safe from those that would harm them; terrorists; war; you."

"I don't attack people; I stop other ghosts from attacking people."

"So you say again and again; yet here you are at my doorstep with an army attacking my men."

"Only because you invaded Amity Park; you attacked innocent people; my friends, my family, my home."

"Only because they protect you; we've tried to break your control over them; to show them what you really are; but we couldn't we failed them; so we had to take drastic action."

"You think I was controlling them?"

"It's the only way you could have the whole town side with a monster."

"Yeah I'm the monster I'm the one who invades towns; I'm the one who sterilizes a whole species because I think they're bad; I'm the one who betrays my country because I can't get past my own prejudice."

"You shut up; I love my country; I may not have done morally right things; but it was always for the good of my country."

"If you really love your country you will stop this right now; shut down this metal monstrosity and turn yourself into the government and face the consequences of your actions. Humans and Ghosts don't have to be enemies."

"I think the situation outside disproves your statement."

"No; don't you get it; we don't have to fight; Ghosts and Humans can live in peace; we can co-exist; to many have already died on both sides; we're the leaders of each force here; let's just end it now and go in peace." Danny said extending his hand.

Danny still couldn't believe he was doing this; he was asking The Boss of the Guys in White to surrender peacefully. Part of him wanted to kill the man right here and now; end the Guy's in White once and for all; revenge for everything they've ever done to ghosts; to him and to Sam. But once again Danny realized that wasn't him; that was him; Danny would never kill; no matter what; he made a promise to those he loved he would never turn into a monster. Also if he could get The Boss so surrender peacefully to the military it would help the world see that humans and ghosts could co-exist? The Boss looked down at Phantom's hand; he then looked behind him at the control screen; he could see that The Reaper was still advancing on the military; destroying more tanks and killing more American soldiers; the battle was lost; The Reaper was not going to survive much longer; and if it did all he would do is kill more humans; the people he swore to protect. The Boss lowered his gun and looked at Phantom; he made his decision. The Boss smacked the hand away and raised his gun; firing at Phantom.

Danny dodged out of the way and threw up a ghost shield to protect him; however a bullet still managed to lodge itself in his shoulder. Danny fell to the ground on his hurt side; he groaned in pain; he looked up to see The Boss approaching him. The Gun the Boss had must have been one of those special guns the GIW made that could hurt him; ectoplasm-coated bullets. It must also have been the same reason why The Bounty Hunter's gun hurt him too. Danny tried to move out of the way; recover and attack The Boss. But The Boss was already on top of him; pinning him to the ground; the gun pressed against his temple.

"I don't want co-existence; I want you all dead; only then can we have peace; you and your kind are a disease; a poison to this world; all you want is our destruction; I swore I would protect my country and its citizens from you and unlike the lying Ectoplasmic slime you are I am a man of my word; goodbye Phantom."

The Reaper suddenly shook violently; sending both Phantom and The Boss off their feet. They both slammed into the side of the cockpit as the Reaper continued to shake. Phantom and The Boss looked up towards the computer screen to see a message. "Critical Failure: Destruction Imminent; Abandon Reaper." The Reaper continued to shake and explosions could be heard. The Boss; ran to the controls; trying to regain control of the machine. Another explosion erupted; this time beneath them as the entire right side of the lower torso blew itself apart. Danny couldn't do anything as he fell though the new hole in the cockpit. He was slammed against metal part after metal part as he fell down the insides of the machine before being blinded by the light of the sun. Danny felt himself falling out of the Reaper and slamming into the cold; hard pavement beneath it.

Danny hit his head with a loud crack; he could feel ectoplasm leak from the back of his head. Danny could feel himself losing consciences; and he felt the familiar tingle as his body changed back into his human form. Danny; still lying on the ground; unable to move looked up to see The Reaper shake and quake; explosions were covering its body; metal parts being thrown in every direction. The last thing Danny saw before he lost consciences was the entire cockpit light up like a furnace before exploding; the Reaper now a non-functioning collection of metal then collapsed to the ground; right on top of Danny.


And done. Okay first things first; the reason for the delay I addressed in an author's update in the last chapter; I had gotten writer's block due to multiple factors. Secondly like I also said I needed to get a new chapter out before September 1st because as gamers know that is the day Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain comes out; which I am really looking forward to and as soon as it's out I might find it hard to do anything else. So I did my best to get this chapter out as soon as I could and with a tolerable likability to it; I think there are still some things I can do and add to this chapter that I might do in the future but for now and with my timeline and schedule I feel it's good enough to release as it is now. Now I also want to address why The Reaper may seem overpowered; well first of all; let's be real if The Reaper actually went up against Danny and his entire army it would be over in a few seconds; so I had to take the strongest players out of commission; Danny fighting the bounty Hunter; Sam injured; Dani with her mother; etc. Also The reason The Reaper suddenly got whipped by the military is because; like it was explained in the story some what The Reaper was using The Ecto-Converter to absorb all the ghosts attacks to power itself; this is because no matter what a ghost attacks with it's always ecto powered; the military doesn't use Ecto weaponry though and could easily tear The Reaper apart; also remember that this Reaper is a prototype a first attempt; you know the next model will be more brutal. The only other thing I have to say before I get into reviews is this. dragon24340/naurto24340 thank you for telling me about this song; this song I listened to and I can't stop listening to it and it dose fit with this story; please look it up on YouTube.


Okay so now that I have that out of the way and I can't think of anything else to say I'll go straight to responding to the previous chapter's reviews.

feral creature: No it's not weird I've stated before that I based The Reaper off a combination of ED-209 and Metal Gear Ray

IvyVine6: I do my best; aim to please; glad it's working

firestar91: thank you and the gender is currently undecided

LunaTheBlackWolf: Sam and Dani; probably soon; Danny; well he did change back; probably not at the best moment though, I'll take the names into consideration

niyuu: That would be cool but I'm saving the Danny Rage/Wrath thing for later in the story; sorry about the wait but trust me you will not be disappointed

Randomness-sama: That little detail will be covered; don't know if it's next chapter of the one after though

1228248: They'll cross that bridge when they get there because yeah no way you can hide Sam Manson with a baby bump; and as for your link FanFiction automatically deletes link; name what it is; who it's by and I might look it up.

gilly boy; yeah but that's the problem with this stuff technically the Reaper shouldn't be any threat it should get destroyed automatically; so you need to come up with situations to de-power one side to make the other equal or better; but if I did that this would have been a short and unneeded chapter

Inviso-Al: tune in next time; same Phantom time; same Phantom channel.

Hades: Interesting

monkyru: If the readers hate the villains then they are doing their job well; O and K will live...for now at least

draconis ignites: I think you just read your answer

silverwolf: actually haven't decided id she's dead yet

Halomaniac117: As funny as it would be; I do have a story to keep and I promised a fight; in reality it should have been that easy

Ghostboy225: I am sorry I was not able to get the chapter out by August 17th, I hope you are able to read this; good job joining the army though; make you're country proud; good luck

ShinigamiPhantom: No

Crows-Kun: No; that song is strictly Batman and; for some reason I could barely listen to the whole thing; the other song that JT did Batman for works better

nautro24340: Thanks for telling me about the song; you were right

Tamara: Chapter 14

The Hollow Lunar Fang: Once again thank you for an in depth review; I love these; I love your description of the scene of Danny carrying Sam; and about the Reaper killing a character; I had planned it; except the only one I could really do it to that would not effect later chapters in this story and the next one is Pandora; so I decided to hold off the killing main character thing for now; can't wait to see your next review

jim89: I looked Robotech up...ROBOTECH IS JETFIRE I mean there is little to no difference Robotech is Jetifre form Transformers; I know there are probably behind the scenes things explaining it but I didn't look into it; anyways thanks for telling me and thanks for the review

The 6th Spectral King: No he was a combination of Trager from Outlast and a Nazi Scientist

Alexzandria747: Daughter of a Phantom takes place instead of Phantom Planet; the fight with Technus in the third chapter of Mother of a Phantom is actually the fight Danny had with Technus in Phantom Planet. But thank you for your kind words; I love reading reviews like this; glad you're enjoying the story so far; hope you enjoy the rest.

Ushina: I know; Grammar is an issue; it's how I write and I'm working on it, thanks for mentioning it though reminders always help.

Well I think that's it for answers; so anyways like I said in the author's note I will try to get the next chapter out by September 1st; but at this point and time that looks unlikely and may come out the first week after September 1st; it's not that long a chapter; so thank you for your patience I know it's now easy; no seriously I know there are FanFictions I also waiting on. So as always thank you for reading; please if you haven't already please favorite and follow and please everybody review; let me know what you think; until next time.

The Storymaster1000.

PS: Is any body else having problems or issues with FanFiction; like two weeks ago the site was down for like two days having no stories and now it says no one has seen any of my stories in the last two days; anyone else having issues?
