Here's chapter 35 everybody.
Chapter 35: Interception.
It's been 12 days since Team Phantom's battle against Dan, Dana and their forces, and rescuing Sam and Tucker before going into hiding at the Fenton Ghost Bunker with their families, friends, ghost allies and those that need protection. Everything seem to be at peace in the last 12 days. There has been no sign or attacks from Dan's and Dana's forces and the team is on alert for the Harvesters' arrival to Earth and its Ghost Zone dimensional plane. However, unaware to Team Phantom and especially Ida and Tommy, Dan and Dana has activated the Tetrahedron and has unintentionally brought back Doctor Manfred Bauer, who has been with the Harvesters at the far away Ghost Zone dimensional plane the Keep for 69 years after losing his battle to Harry Fenton and getting sucked into the Ghost Zone by the Tetrahedron during the same battle in 1948. Dan and Dana now has recruited Bauer into their forces before he help them bring in the Harvesters. In the past 12 days, as Team Phantom hides at the Fenton Ghost Bunker due to being marked as fugitives by the government due to Danny and Dani being falsely accused of murder thanks to Dan and Dana and the Sokovia Accords because of Danny and Steve's faction's actions last year, the team has been prepping to launch a new and advanced ecto-detection satellite from Cape Canaveral, Florida. However, because Team Phantom are marked as fugitives, this cause NASA to rethink and to either launch or not. As a result, Jack and Maddie secretly flew the Avengers Quinjet to the space center 5 days ago in order to convince a old college classmate of theirs to get them to launch the satellite with their Fenton rocket and they managed to convince him, which was good news for the team. However, Dan and Dana are aware of the potential launch. They are currently still at Vlad's destroyed mansion as the Harvesters are already assembled in their flight suits, and awaiting orders.
"All right. As you all know, our former mother and father are preparing and are going to launch themselves into Earth orbit so that they can launch some ghost detection satellite into space." Dan said.
"We want you all to pilot your fighter craft, fly to Kennedy Space Center at Florida, and destroy the Fenton Rocket. Kill Jack and Maddie Fenton!" Dana said.
"And if you see Team Phantom, especially Danny and Dani Phantom, destroy them too!" Dan ordered.
The Harvesters screeched loudly before flying to their fighter craft. After a few seconds, a large squadron of Harvester aircraft took off to the skies before heading south on their way to Florida.
"You think these Phantom Twins won't be able to handle the Harvesters or their aircraft?" Manfred asked.
"Imagine, dear Manfred, Danny and Dani taking on multiple large ghost aircraft as they try to save their parents. They won't stand a chance." Dana said with a grin.
"Oh, this is sure to be a delightful thing to watch. Danny and Dani struggling to save their beloved parents." Dan laughed as Dana joins in.
Meanwhile, back at the Fenton Ghost Bunker, as the team is waiting for the launch on TV, Danny and Dani were practicing their combat skills against each other in Human form at the lab. Danny was wearing a black tank top which showcase his upper muscle built, especially his arms, and black training pants. Dani was wearing black yoga pants and a red tank top, showcasing her figure. Both were also wearing black fingerless training gloves and were bare footed. Danny and Dani then bow towards each other before taking a fighting stance. Danny charged towards Dani. He threw a couple of punches but Dani managed to block them all. Dani then duck down before attempting to sidekick Danny to the face, but he managed to grab her leg. Danny then flip Dani over, making her crash to the mat. Dani however managed to get back up and stood at her stance.
"Give up, or you hungry for more, little sis?" Danny asked with a smirk.
"We'll see about that." Dani said with a smrik.
Dani then charged towards Danny and started throwing punches and kicks, but Danny managed to block them all. The two then pull back. Danny then charged towards Dani, but she step aside and held her leg out, making Danny tripped. Dani immediately kneel down and grabbed Danny's arm and twisted it back.
"You give up, big bro?" Dani said with a smirk.
"Never." Danny said.
Danny then use his foot to kick one of Dani's legs, making her lose grip. They continue to train until they ended up fooling around and pretended to be in some WWE wrestling match. Danny and Dani charged towards each other for a clothesline and ended up colliding with each other and landed hard on the floor groaning in pain as Tucker and Sam, wearing their regular Team Phantom attire, looked on, shaking their heads.
"You know you two look like a bunch of idiots don't you?" Tucker asked.
"Shut up, Tucker." Danny said, rolling his eyes.
"And for the record, we don't care." Dani said.
"Anyway, how's the pre-launch checks for mom and dad going so far, Sam?" Danny asked as he and Dani gets up.
"So far, so good." Sam replied.
"Everything is secret though, right? Like, does the government know who's on board?" Dani asked.
"Don't worry. They don't know. As long as a ecto-detection satellite is up in orbit, they could care less about us." Tucker said.
"That's because we're marked as fugitives. Still, they need that satellite in orbit. How are you suppose to track ecto-signatures?" Danny said.
Suddenly, Sam Wilson appear at the doorway.
"Danny, Danielle, Sam, Tucker. Mr. Mitchell wants to see you four." Sam Wilson said.
"Okay, Let Dani and I get changed first and we'll be there." Danny said.
A few moments later, Danny and Dani, changed into their normal attire, and Sam and Tucker were in the lab where Tommy was showing them a radar screen.
"The old satellite's control system is finally repaired. The satellite currently in space has picked up multiple ecto-signatures coming from Wisconsin. Strangely, our air traffic radar as picked up multiple unidentified aircraft at the same position." Tommy said.
"So, what are we dealing with, Mr. Mitchell?" Danny said, suspicious of the situation.
"This picture was taken from someone's cell phone." Tommy said as he shows the picture on the screen showing multiple odd aircraft.
"Where was that taken at?" Dani said.
"It was taken at Madison, Wisconsin. Strangely, the satellite is also detecting powerful ecto-readings, the same readings the Tetrahedron would emit." Tommy replied.
"Where are those craft heading?" Danny asked, getting suspicious.
"The radar shows that they're heading southeast." Tommy replied.
"You said that those ecto-readings at Madison, Wisconsin has the same readings as the Tetrahedron?" Danny asked.
"Correct." Tommy replied.
Danny, Dani, Sam and Tucker looked at each other as the realization hit their minds.
"Vlad's mansion." Danny, Dani, Sam and Tucker said simultaneously.
"Dan and Dana must be there." Danny said.
"And if those ecto-readings reads the same as the Tetrahedron..." Dani continued.
"Then that means they've activated the Tetrahedron." Sam continued.
"That means the Harvesters are here." Tucker said.
"That means those craft are Harvester military craft." Dani said.
"I never expected the Harvesters to have their own air force at all." Danny said.
"Me neither. I fought them before, but they were unarmed. They only used their fists to shoot rays." Tommy said.
"Mr. Mitchell, you said those craft are heading southeast?" Sam asked.
"Yes." Tommy replied.
"If those craft are heading southeast..." Sam said as Danny and goes wide-eyed.
"That means Dan and Dana are aware of today's launch. They've send those craft to Cape Canaveral to prevent the launch and kill mom and dad!" Dani said.
"We gotta get there before they do and fast!" Danny said.
Danny and Dani ran out of the room to find Jazz and the others in the living quarters.
"Everyone, we got a serious problem." Danny said.
"What's going on, Danny?" Jazz asked.
"Dan and Dana has activated the Tetrahedron and the Harvesters has arrived to Earth. The Harvesters has some kind of air force of their own and Dan and Dana has send them to kill mom and dad and prevent the launch." Dani replied.
"What?!" Jazz said.
"Tucker, Sam, you're coming with Dani and I." Danny said.
"All right, Danny." Tucker and Sam said.
"Jacob, Sierra Venus, I'm gonna need you to come with us to the Fenton Jet as well." Danny said.
"Why us, Danny?" Venus said.
"Well, you three prove yourselves in the last battle and since that I'm bringing my best friends, then Dani should bring hers. And not to mention we're gonna need more than four people to man the jet's radar systems. So this will be your second test for the team." Danny replied.
"All right, Danny." Jacob said.
"What about the rest of us, Danny?" Clint asked.
"You all stay here with Mr. Mitchell and protect everyone else. I can't put the entire team at risk." Danny replied.
"Don't worry, we'll take care of everyone here." Steve said.
Minutes later, Danny, Dani, Sam, Tucker, Jacob, Sierra and Venus were at the hanger, prepping to board the Fenton Jet as everyone looked on, Ida among them.
"I can't believe the Harvesters has finally returned to Earth." Ida said.
"Don't worry, grandma. If Mr. Fenton's father can beat them, then I know Danny and Danielle can, but they will not do it alone. The team and I are gonna help Danny and Danielle. We'll beat them, just like Mr. Mitchell, Harry Fenton you and Grandpa Manson did." Sam said.
"Well, you be careful, Sammy." Ida said.
Meanwhile, Jacob was having a last minute conversation with his mother.
"Jacob, are you sure you want to do this? Join Team Phantom and fight ghosts?" Jennifer said with concern for her son.
"I want to, mom. Dani's my best friend. I care about her and I will always protect her and have her back. I..." Jacob replied.
"You love her. I see how much you really care for Danielle and how much you love her." Jennifer said. "And to go out to fight ghosts because you don't want to see Danielle hurt is very touching. You're just like your father. A brave warrior and someone who cares for someone he loves. Your father would be proud of you, and if he was here, he would have love to meet Danielle."
Jacob then hugged Jennifer.
"Thanks, mom." Jacob said.
"You be careful." Jennifer said.
"Sure thing." Jacob said.
A few minutes later, Danny, Dani, Sam, Tucker, Jacob, Sierra and Venus board the Fenton Jet. The hanger's two massive doors opened before the Fenton Jet uses its VTOL capabilities to rise of the ground as Danny and Dani pilots it.
"Let's hope this Fenton Jet flight will be smooth than the last two times." Sam said.
"Definitely." Tucker said.
Danny and Dani then flew the jet away from the bunker and climb to a higher altitude before Danny activates the Auto-Jack. The inflatable Jack Fenton figure then took over the controls.
"Auto-Jack activated. Please buckle up and pass the fudge." the Auto-Jack said.
Danny then look at Dani, who looked at him with a raise eye brow. Danny noticed Jacob, Sierra and Venus looking at him the same way.
"What? Don't look at me like that. I ain't piloting the jet for the whole trip, only when we get in trouble. Besides, we're only going one direction." Danny said.
"And really, dad? A inflatable figure of yourself?" Dani asked.
"It's dad. What do you expect?" Danny said.
"True. Anyway, since this Auto-Jack is piloting the craft, mind as well type in its course and destination." Dani said.
Danny then type in the course and destination before the Auto-Jack said...
"Auto-Jack setting new course for Cape Canaveral, Florida."
With that, the Fenton Jet starts heading to the direction of Cape Canaveral.
Meanwhile, back at Vlad's old mansion, Dan and Dana use their powers combined to formed a massive portal so that the Harvesters can fly their ghost fighters into the Ghost Zone and to their castle before they flew in with the Masters' Blasters and Manfred, despite his protest.
"I just got back to Earth in 69 years and you two brought me back to the Ghost Zone." Manfred protested.
"Don't worry, Manfred. You will roam Earth again, but we need you in order to achieve our quest." Dana said.
"Very well." Manfred said.
"Fright Knight, what's the status on our Harvester squadron and the launch preparations?" Dan asked.
"They are on course and the launch preparations are still go for the Phantom whelps' parents. Unfortunately they have no idea what's about to be in store for them." Fright Knight replied. "However, we now have a problem."
"What is it?" Dan asked.
Fright Knight guide Dan, Dana and Manfred to the stolen Clockwork viewer where it shows the Fenton Jet in flight.
"It appears that the Phantom Twins have found out about the Harvesters' arrival and our plans to kill their parents. And it seems they have brought their main friends with them." Fright Knight said.
"It's a shame Jacob, Sierra and Venus got involved. It will lead to their death. My past self is a bigger fool than I thought. Can't believe I was foolish." Dana said.
"Don't worry, Dana. I can say same regarding my former past self with Sam and Tucker." Dan said.
"It appears that they are also using the Fenton Jet. This gives me a idea that can end them. Because it's the Emergency Ops Center, that means its unarmed, making it a big and vulnerable target. So, I say we send a small squadron of Harvesters fighters to go after the Fenton Jet and shoot it down, and kill Danny, my past self, and their precious best friends." Dana said with grin.
"That is a brilliant idea, sister." Dan said before facing eight Harvester ghosts. "Head to your fighters and go after the Fenton Jet that is carrying Danny and Dani Phantom and their friends. When you see it, shoot it down. No survivors." Dan ordered.
The Harvesters screeched before flying towards their fighters. Dan and Dana combined their powers to open a massive ghost portal, giving access to Earth, before the Harvesters flew their fighters through it to go after the Fenton Jet.
"Since Danny and Danielle love aviation, good at piloting a aircraft, and Danny managed landed the space shuttle in those battles after beating me, let's see if their piloting skills can last against a Harvester squadron's attack." Dan said with a grin.
"Although we all know they will get shot down, brother. Sure, our past selves may love aviation, aerospace, NASA, and knows how to fly a aircraft thanks to flight simulation, but it won't be enough. After all, they are unarmed. We used to be them after all." Dana said.
"Indeed, sister." Dan said.
Meanwhile, it's now been hours since the Fenton Jet carrying Danny, Dani, Sam, Tucker, Jacob, Sierra and Venus has left the Fenton Ghost Bunker in order to stop a Harvester air squadron attack over Cape Canaveral and get the Fenton Rocket, carrying Jack and Maddie, to launch. The jet has just passed over the Florida border. So far, the flight has been smooth and the jet has not encounter any trouble at the moment.
"So, how do you plan on fending off this Harvester squadron? I heard this jet is not armed with weapons." Sierra asked.
"Well, so far, the only plan I got is to lure them towards us." Danny asked.
"And lure them to a higher altitude." Dani said.
"But what if the Air Force detects us and send in fighter jets? After all, Florida has a few military air bases. Cape Canaveral is one of them." Jacob asked.
"Well, Dani and I might have to turn this aircraft intangible and invisible." Danny said.
"Just like last time when we had to deal with the Guys in White chasing us when we had to find the Reality Gems for Freakshow's Reality Gauntlet, so we thought." Sam said.
Suddenly, the radar beeped, which got everyone's attention. Jacob runs to it to check it out.
"We have two radar contacts, heading towards us at our 3 o' clock and fast." Jacob said.
Danny then looks out the window but doesn't see anything. Seconds later he sees two figures approaching the jet fast.
"We got two F-22s approaching fast!" Danny said.
"F-22 Raptors?" Dani asked.
"Yep, our favorite fighter jet, Dani." Danny replied.
"Where are they coming from?" Dani said.
"Since we just cross the Florida border, they have to be coming from Tyndall Air Force Base." Jacob said.
Two United States Air Force F-22 Raptor stealth fighter jets approached the Fenton Jet, one flying on either side. Danny and Dani can make out the TY tail code on the jet's tail fins, confirming Jacob's statement that they are indeed coming from Tyndall Air Force Base.
"Tyndall must have detected us. This is an interception." Danny said.
"Obviously, we're marked as fugitives. Of course they would send fighters. Secretary Ross must have told all military bases since you're a fugitive to the Sokovia Accords." Dani said.
Everyone then heard static coming from the radio.
"Attention Team Phantom aircraft. This is the United States Air Force 95th Fighter Squadron of the 325th Fighter Wing. Be advised, in accordance with the Sokovia Accords and under orders of the United States Secretary of State, you are consider fugitives and will be shot down unless you land at the nearest base. I say again, you are consider fugitives from the US government and the Sokovia Accords. Land at nearest base. Fail to comply and you will be shot down." the lead Raptor pilot said through the radio.
"What do we do, Danny?!" Venus asked.
"Buckle up everyone. This is gonna be one heck of a roller coaster ride." Danny said as he buckles in his seat and deactivates the Auto-Jack.
Everyone then went to their seats and buckled up. Dani went to the co-pilot seat next to Danny before buckling up as well. Danny then throttles up the Fenton Jet at full throttle before breaking left. The Raptors goes full throttle and breaks left to go in pursuit.
"Tyndall, this is Bonehead 1, permission to engage." the lead Raptor pilot requested.
"This is Tyndall Base Commander. Bonehead 1, Bonehead 2, you're clear to engage." the Base Commander said through the intercom.
"We're being engaged, Danny." Dani said.
"All right, hit it, Dani." Danny said.
Dani hit a button on the instrument panel and the Fenton Jet goes supersonic speed, forcing everyone to lean back on their seats. The F-22 Raptor pilots noticed the Fenton Jet's increased speed as the jet breaks the sound barrier.
"Enemy went supersonic." Bonehead 2 said as he and Bonehead 1 also went full afterburner.
Bonehead 2 check his HUD before the red missile seeker tone on the Fenton Jet. Danny and Dani hears the lock-on sound on the radar.
"They got a lock on us!" Dani said.
"Hold on, everyone!" Danny said.
"Bonehead 2. Fox Two!" Bonehead 2 said.
Bonehead 2 fires a AIM-9X Sidewinder short-range missile from the side of his F-22. Danny and Dani hears the missile alert alarm.
"They've launch a missile! Dani, deploy flares!" Danny said.
Dani press a button and the Fenton Jet deploys flares, which confuses the missile's warhead and explodes upon making contact.
"Enemy deployed flares." Bonehead 1 said as he and Bonehead 2 maneuver to avoid the fireball.
Danny then turn the jet to the right as Bonehead 1's F-22 gets in close and in gun range. Bonehead 1 then fires his aircraft's M61 Vulcan Gatling rotary cannon. Danny noticed the tracers and does a barrel roll to avoid the bullets. Danny then dives down as he makes a massive U-turn. The two F-22 Raptors perform U-turns as well before continuing to pursue.
"They're still on us. 6 o' clock." Dani said. "Ever try doing some maneuvers, like the Pugachev Cobra that we can do in Ace Combat?"
"I don't know, but one way to find out. Let's hope this craft doesn't break up." Danny said.
Danny then puts the Fenton Jet at a moderate speed until he suddenly raises the nose momentarily to a vertical position, making the craft do the Pugachev Cobra air maneuver, causing the two F-22 pilots to break hard to avoid a mid-air collision and the jet wash from the Fenton Jet.
"Are they crazy?!" Bonehead 1 asked.
"How did he perform that maneuver on such a large aircraft?" Bonehead 2 asked.
"Doesn't matter. Continue to engage." Bonehead 1 said.
The F-22s then made U-turns again and pursue the Fenton Jet. Bonehead 1 then opens his F-22's internal weapon bay doors at the bottom and gets a lock on.
"Bonehead 1, Fox Three." Bonehead 1 said.
Bonehead 1 fires a AIM-120 long-range AMRAAM missile. The missile streaks towards its target.
"Deploy chaffs!" Danny ordered.
Dani then deployed the jet's chaffs. The missile exploded upon contact with it.
"Bogey deployed chaffs. I still got a lock." Bonehead 1 said.
Bonehead 1 fires another AIM-120 missile.
"We got another missile heading towards us!" Dani said as she tried to deploy more of the jet's countermeasures but the screen says its empty. "Darn! Danny, we lost countermeasures!"
"Okay, performing evasive maneuver!" Danny said.
Danny then breaks the plane to the left in order to avoid the incoming missile. However, the missile managed to hit the tip of the right wing, damaging the aircraft.
"We've been hit!" Danny said.
Bonehead 2 then went close to the jet before firing the machine gun, the bullets hitting and damaging two of the engine nozzles, causing a small fire and billowing out black smoke. The bullets also hit the damaged right wing, causing a fuel leak.
"We've been hit! Lost engines 2 and 3 and losing fuel! We need to make a emergency landing!" Dani said.
"What's the nearest safe landing spot?!" Danny asked.
Dani typed in the computer to find the nearest runway.
"Ummm, Tyndall Air Force Base." Dani said.
"That's just great. Looks like we have no choice." Danny said.
Danny then turns the plane to the west to head for Tyndall. The two F-22 pilots noticed this.
"Tyndall, the enemy heading towards the base, probably to make a emergency landing." Bonehead 1 said.
"This is Tyndall, we're scrambling military police and emergency personnel." The Tyndall base controller said through the radio.
Danny then flies the Fenton Jet, trying to maintain altitude and to maintain level flight to avoid further damage to the right wing. Danny also noticed the two F-22s escorting it.
"Danny, what are we gonna do when we land? They're sure going to arrest and interrogate us." Sam asked.
"I'll find a way to persuade them." Danny replied.
Meanwhile, at Tyndall, military personnel, armed with their weapons, and their emergency personnel gathered near the runway as they see the Fenton Jet closing in for a emergency landing. Danny noticed the activity but focused on landing the crippled aircraft. Danny lower the flaps and the landing gear. Danny then managed to make a safe emergency landing on the runway. As soon as the aircraft came to a stop, military vehicles gather in front of the aircraft before personnel aim their weapons. Fire vehicles also managed to put out the flames. Danny look through the window to see the activity before turning his attention to the others.
"Is everyone okay?" Danny asked.
"Yeah, I think we're okay, Danny." Sam replied before unbuckling from her seat.
"For the record, I now hate flying." Tucker said.
Sam and Tucker approach the windows to see the base personnel and armor vehicles. Outside, the Base Commander grabbed a bullhorn.
"Attention Team Phantom. In accordance with the Sokovia Accords and under orders of the United States Secretary of State, you all are under arrest. Surrender now or be taken by force." the Base Commander said.
Inside, everyone heard the Base Commander's warning.
"Now what?" Tucker asked.
"Didn't this aircraft had a PA system? Pretty sure you used it before, Sam." Danny asked.
"Yeah. Here." Sam said as she hands Danny the mic.
Outside, the Base Commander and his men were waiting until he saw a large speaker emerge from the fuselage.
"This is Danny Phantom of Team Phantom. You can't arrest us. We've been framed and a situation is about to take place over Cape Canaveral. If the Base Commander, and ONLY the Base Commander can come inside the aircraft for us to explain, that would be great." Danny said though the mic.
The personnel looked at the Base Commander after hearing that odd request.
"What are you gonna do, sir" a sergeant asked.
"Stand down! I'll head inside under Phantom's request." the Base Commander said.
The Base Commander then heads for the Fenton Jet. Danny noticed this from the window.
"Tucker, open the door." Danny ordered.
Tucker opens the plane's hatch just as the Base Commander was climbing the ladder. Once the Base Commander got inside, he saw Danny, Dani, Sam, Tucker, Sierra and Venus before he got patted down for search.
"Where's the rest of Team Phantom?" the Base Commander asked.
"The rest are back at Amity Park. We do have one more person here, but he's in the restroom at the moment." Danny replied.
"And bringing teenagers into the fray? I'm surprise, Mr. Fenton." the Base Commander said.
"They're my best friends. They wanted to join, sir." Dani said.
"Anyway, you all better have a good explanation on your claim before I send my airmen to arrest you all." the Base Commander said.
Before anyone can speak, Jacob emerge from a doorway, coming back from the restroom. He noticed the Base Commander and immediately recognized him.
"Mr. Moore?" Jacob asked.
"Jacob Collins, is that you?" the Base Commander asked with surprise.
"You know each other?" Sam asked.
"Guys, this is Thomas Moore, he was a friend of my father." Jacob said.
"I didn't expect to see you here, Jacob. Why are you with Team Phantom?" Moore asked.
"I'm part of the team. Dani's my best friend." Jacob said.
"Shame. I was gonna hear an excuse before I might have to arrest them." Moore said.
"Sir, please. Hear them out. They're innocent." Jacob said.
"All right." Moore said.
"As Jacob said, we're innocent. We've been framed. Dani and I didn't kill those JTTF operatives at Chicago, as well as the personnel at a federal prison where the Guys in White Commissioner was killed. They were actually killed by two powerful and evil ghosts name Dan and Dana Phantom. They're alternate evil versions of ourselves from two alternate futures. I barely defeated Dan 8 years ago and his timeline got erased." Danny said.
"Dan forced us to travel to Dana's timeline, which is ten years in the future. He did it so that Dana can come to our time period, but this cause her timeline to be erased, when we managed to get back of course." Dani said.
"Now my once alternate evil future self wants to exact revenge on me after our last battle." Danny said.
"Not only that, Dan and my alternate evil future self are on a quest to dominate the world and Ghost Zone, and Dan is gonna do it with a ancient ghost artifact called the Universal Gauntlet." Dani said.
"If they succeed, this world will be much more worst and completely destroyed than their timelines." Danny said.
"If I want to believe you, do you have pictures?" Moore asked.
"Here you go." Danny said handing Moore a file.
Moore looked at the two files and captured photos of Dan and Dana, read their bio, history, powers, etc.
"So, these two ghosts are alternate evil grown up versions of the two of you from two different futures?" Moore asked.
"Yes, and Dani and I would have became them had we made the wrong choices." Danny said.
"You mentioned something about Cape Canaveral on the PA?" Moore said.
Danny and Dani then explained to Commander Moore about the top secret launch of Jack and Maddie on the Fenton Rocket at Kennedy Space Center to get a ecto-detection satellite into space. They also explain the Harvesters and Dan and Dana sending a air squadron to attack Cape Canaveral and kill Jack and Maddie.
"Are you sure this squadron of ghost fighters are on their way right now?" Moore asked.
"Yes!" Danny and Dani replied in unison.
"Mr. Moore, please. You gotta let Danny and Danielle go. They're innocent and trying to prove it to the world. And Danny may have his reasons for opposing the Sokovia Accords, but the world seem to forgot the contributions that Danny did for Amity Park, and forgot what Danny and Dani did 6 years ago, two enhanced individuals. If it wasn't for them, then we all wouldn't be here right now. And yes, Danny AND Dani saved the world from the Dis-asteroid." Jacob said.
Moore smiled before facing Jacob.
"You know, Jacob. You're just like your old man, determined and always watching someone else's back. If only he can see you now." Moore said before facing the others. "Anyway, if you all are really are innocent, then show it in the pending air battle." Moore said.
"You mean, you're gonna help us?" Dani asked in shock.
"Well, Jacob is right on one thing, the world seem to forgot the contributions you did for Amity Park, Danny, and forgot what the two of you did 6 years ago, and not to mention we have a few pilots that are Team Phantom fans or used to live in Amity Park. So, yes. Tyndall is gonna help." Moore said.
"Thank you, sir." Danny said.
"Just one problem though. Since two of our Raptors damaged your jet, how are you gonna shoot down those ghost fighters?" Moore asked.
Danny and Dani think until they look out the window and saw a pair of F-22 Raptors sitting on the nearby tarmac or in the hangers. They look at each other before grinning and facing Moore.
"Well..." Danny began.
A few minutes later, the Tyndall personnel saw Commander Moore exiting out of the Fenton Jet and heading towards them as he carries a folder.
"What's the order, sir?" the sergeant asked.
"Get the Fenton Jet into a nearby hanger and find some mechanics to repair it." Moore ordered.
"What's going on?" the sergeant asked.
"Team Phantom is innocent. They've been framed." Moore said as he hands the sergeant the file on Dan and Dana.
The sergeant quickly reads the two files before facing Moore.
"What are our orders?" the sergeant asked.
"Find some spare flight suits for Danny and Danielle Fenton and prep two Raptors for them to take off." Moore ordered.
"Sir, they're not military pilots, or military personnel at all!" the sergeant protested.
"Don't worry. They said they won't let out the Raptor's secrets. Find some spare flight suits and get some mechanics to prep two Raptors. A ghost air attack is going to occur at Cape Canaveral and Mr. and Ms. Fenton needs to get there fast." Moore said.
"What about helmets and oxygen masks?" the sergeant asked.
"Just let them borrow some from some of our pilots." Moore replied.
"Yes, sir." the sergeant said.
A few minutes later, the Fenton Jet was brought inside a nearby hanger before Danny, Dani, Sam, Tucker, Jacob, Sierra and Venus climbed out.
"Okay, you all will repair the Fenton Jet. Mr. Foley will help you out with the repairs." Moore said to a unit of mechanics.
"Yes, sir." a USAF mechanic said.
"Mr. and Ms. Fenton. I will guide you to the changing rooms. Two pilots will help you there." Moore said before guiding Danny and Dani.
In the women's changing room, Dani was being helped by a female flight instructor. Dani was handed a black T-shirt, the olive green flight suit and a pair of black combat boots. She puts them on before being helped on putting the G-force straps.
"Excited to fly the F-22?" the instructor asked.
"Yes, ma'am. Danny and I love the Raptor." Dani replied.
"Well, I wish you two luck up there." the instructor said as she hands Dani a pair of olive green gloves.
"Thanks. Danny and I are gonna need it." Dani said.
"Here's your helmet and oxygen mask." the instructor said.
"Thank you." Dani said.
"All right, you're ready for takeoff." the instructor said before she and Dani left the room.
Meanwhile, in the men's, Danny was being helped by a fellow Air Force pilot with black hair. Danny was handed a black T-shirt, the olive green flight suit and black combat boots. He puts them on before being helped on putting the G-force straps.
"Say, I'm about to pilot a F-22 Raptor in a air battle soon. Got any advice?" Danny asked.
"Only one rule in a dogfight. Survive." the pilot replied.
"Just like Ace Combat Zero. Thanks for the advice." Danny said.
"Is it true that you and your sister were framed?" the pilot asked.
"Yes sir, and Dani and I are trying to prove our innocence, despite myself being a fugitive to the Accords." Danny replied.
"Well, my wife and two daughters believes you two are innocent. My daughters Carly and Sophia are fans of Team Phantom and believe that you and Danielle can prove your innocence." the pilot said as he hands Danny a pair of olive green gloves.
"Thank you." Danny said with a smile.
"No problem. Here's your helmet and oxygen mask." the pilot said.
"Thank you." Danny said.
"I wish you and Danielle good luck." the pilot said.
"Thank you." Danny said before leaving the room.
Back at the hanger, Tucker was helping the ground crew in repairing the Fenton Jet while other mechanics were preparing two F-22s for flight, while Sam, Jacob, Sierra, Venus and Commander Moore looked on.
"So, how's your mother by the way, Jacob? Haven't heard from Jennifer in a while." Moore asked.
"She's fine. She'll like to see you some time." Jacob replied.
Everyone then saw Danny and Dani entered the hanger, wearing USAF flight suits. Everyone approached them.
"You two look great in those flight suits." Jacob said.
"You two sure you want to do this? Those fighter planes are expensive." Sam asked.
"There's no other way. We got to borrow these Raptors. And I did landed the Space Shuttle." Danny said.
"Well, come back in one piece. I can't lose you." Sam said.
"Despite that I'm half ghost, don't worry, Sam. I will." Danny said before kissing Sam.
Jacob meanwhile grab Dani's hand, which she blushed.
"I know you're half ghost and can fly, but I know you'll do great flying a fighter jet, Dani. I wanted to tell you that." Jacob said as he blushed.
"Thanks, Jacob." Dani said with a little blush.
"Well, I wish you and Danny luck." Venus said.
"Thanks, Venus." Dani said.
"Anyway, you two came up with a squadron name?" Moore asked.
"Phantom Squadron. I'm Phantom 1, Dani's Phantom 2." Danny replied.
"All right." Moore said. "Well, Phantom Squadron, aircraft preparations complete. Launch!"
"Let's rock and roll, Dani." Danny said.
"You said it." Dani said.
Danny and Dani put on their helmets before doing pre-flight checks and climbing into the F-22 cockpits. The ground crew help the two Fenton twins strap themselves to their ejection seats before they turn put on their oxygen masks and turn on their mics.
"Dani, can you read me?" Danny asked.
"Read you loud and clear, Danny." Dani replied.
"Okay, looking at the Raptor's instrument panel and HUD, we've done this many times before on the flight simulator on the computer." Danny said.
"Right." Dani said.
"Clear!" Danny and Dani said, warning everyone near by that they're gonna start the engines.
Danny and Dani then powered up the F-22s two Pratt & Whitney F119-PW-100 jets engines. The engines were so loud, but luckily, everyone wore ear plugs. Danny and Dani then push a button to close the canopy and push another to turn on the Heads Up Display. They then look out the ground crew to see their thumbs up. Danny and Dani gives the thumbs up back before two ground crew members gives them permission to taxi. Danny and Dani then taxi their planes as the control tower contacts them.
"Phantom Squadron, taxi to runway 14 right and wait further instructions." the tower controller said through the radio.
Danny and Dani taxi their Raptors to the runway and align their planes.
"Phantom 1, Phantom 2. Begin takeoff sequence. You're cleared for takeoff." the controller said.
Danny and Dani put their afterburners to full throttle and throttled down the runway. After a few seconds, they've reached takeoff speed and became airborne. Danny and Dani then put their landing gear back inside their planes.
"Phantom 1, Phantom 2. Specified altitude reached. Restrictions lifted. Good luck out there." the controller said.
"All right, Phantom 2. Let's go full throttle and get to Cape Canaveral fast." Danny said.
"Roger that, Phantom 1." Dani said.
With that, Danny and Dani, or Phantom Squadron, put their F-22's afterburners to full throttle, hoping to get to the space center quickly, unaware that they are about to soon face their first Harvester ghost encounter.
And that's the end of this chapter. Some points. The 325th Fight Wing and 95th Fighter Squadron are actual units based at Tyndall Air Force Base in Florida. The Raptor pilots callsigns "Bonehead" is the nickname for the 95th Fighter Squadron. Also, I think we all know who the air force pilot with black hair is. The cameo of the one and only Butch Hartman, as well as the reference and mentioning of his family in that small scene. Another thing, as mentioned previously, I will be doing a collab involving my DPxMCU series with Mikaela2015 and her Phantom Twins series. She has just finished the series so be sure to read those stories so that you don't get lost when the collab gets published next year. Last thing, if some of you have check my deviantart page and seen works of certain promo works for a certain upcoming chapter in this story, then I think you all know what's the next chapter after reading the ending of this one. Anyway, please review. :)
