Chapter 19: Danny Meets His Girlfriend – Part 02

"Kids!" Jack excitedly called for Danny and Jazz. "Come here and take a look at the Fenton Ghost Cuffs!" Maddie facepalmed in frustration.

"Dad, don't you remember Danny went to Greendale to meet Alex?" Jazz asked as she entered her family's lab.

"Anyway, thanks to these cuffs, Plasmius will be taken to court in a way everyone there will know it's him." Jack proudly declared. "Now, speaking of dates, when will we meet your beloved Antonio?"

"About that… Dad, I've heard there's a ghost attacking the mall." Jazz switched the topic.

"To the mall!" Jack shouted and dragged Maddie with him.

'Sorry, Mom.' Jazz thought.

Meanwhile, Danny was in Greendale hoping to reach the place where Alex's match was supposed to take place. Upon arriving, he saw two known faces. "Clover? Samantha?"

"Danny?" The two girls shouted in surprise.

"Nice to see the both of you but, where's Alex?" Danny asked.

"She's in the locker room with her teammates, Danny." Clover answered.

"So, do you know where we can buy snacks here?" Danny asked his girlfriend's friends.

"Danny?" They heard someone else call. Clover and Samantha didn't recognize the voice but Danny did.

"Sabrina?" Danny was surprised. 'Oh, this is going to be more awkward than I expected.' He thought upon seeing his half-witch date was wearing a soccer uniform.'

"Danny?" Sabrina asked in surprise. "What're you doing here?" She then looked at the two girls with him. "Is one of them your chosen girl?"

"Oh, no." Danny explained. "These are her friends Samantha and Clover. Alex is in the locker room with her teammates."

"I'm Clover."

"I'm Samantha but you may call me Sam." Samantha explained. "Danny only calls me 'Samantha' to avoid confusion with one of his friends."

"I'm Sabrina Spellman." Sabrina introduced herself. "Nice to meet you."

'Spellman?' Danny mentally asked. 'What's next? The dragon rumored to live in New York having a surname that means 'dragon'?'

"Sabrina." Another girl called her. "The coach wants all of us at our locker room."

"Okay, Chloe." Sabrina replied and said goodbye to Danny, Clover and Samantha.

After Danny, Clover and Samantha bought some snacks, they took seats and readied themselves to watch the game. As the players entered the field, Danny quickly saw his girlfriend. "Alex, I'm here!" He shouted.

"Uh?" She heard him and looked around. "Hi, Danny!" She smiled.

"Focus on the game." One of her teammates said.

As the match began, Alex quickly took control of the ball and it seemed she was about to score within the game's first minute but then Chloe kicked the ball away from her and Sabrina took control.

"Can that be done?" Danny asked since he wasn't into sports. "Alex could've been hurt."

"It's okay if it's aimed at the ball, Danny." Samantha explained.

Sabrina and Chloe passed the ball to each other until it was a time for Sabrina to score but the ball was taken from her by… Gemini "Gem" Stone. "I'll score, Spellman."

Gem's interference caused Alex's team to regain control of the ball. "What just happened?" Danny asked in confusion. "Weren't Sabrina and that other girl on the same team?"

"That Stone girl is a ball hog." Clover commented.

"Stone?" Danny asked. "How do you know her name?"

"I read it from the back of her shirt." Clover explained.

After the ball was passed to Alex, she quickly dribbled past other players and scored the first goal of the match. Several fans from Beverly Hills and Danny screamed in joy.

"This is your fault, Spellman." Gem told Sabrina.

"No, it was yours." Sabrina argued.

"I agree with you, Spellman." Their coach agreed and then pointed a finger at Gem. "Stone, one more ball hogging and you're off the game."

"Whatever." Gem dismissively replied.

Unbeknownst to Danny and the spies, Marco Lumiere was at the stadium wearing a disguise. 'That boy with them must be a spy as well.' The villain thought. 'Why else would they hang out with someone who doesn't look good enough to be with them?'

As the game restarted, Chloe took the ball and passed it to Sabrina. When it looked like she'd have another chance to score, she reluctantly passed the ball to Gem, who tried to score but the ball hit a goalpost. Because Alex's team's goalkeeper jumped out of fear Gem would've scored otherwise, Chloe took the chance to kick the ball into the goal, tying the game. The Greendale viewers cheered.

"You did it on purpose to make me look bad, Spellman." Gem accused Sabrina.

"Not everything is about you, Gem." Sabrina replied.

"She's not worth it, Sabrina." Chloe reassured her friend.

"Maybe so but I still hope the exchange program ends and she returns to France." Sabrina said.

The game restarted and Alex managed to score another goal before halftime. Her team was now winning 2 x 1.

Samantha, Clover and Danny approached Alex as her teammates went to their locker room. "Danny, I'm glad you came!" She exclaimed.

"I missed you." Danny replied.

"Danny, Alex, we'll leave the both of you alone." Samantha said and she and Clover left so they'd feel more comfortable. Meanwhile, a student dragged Sabrina away while Chloe followed them. Sensing something suspicious, Clover decided to spy on them while Samantha just reluctantly followed.

"So, what do you want, Cassandra?" Sabrina asked the other girl.

"Why do you let that mortal talk to you like that?" Cassandra asked Sabrina. "I know you're a half-mortal but you're also a half-witch. Turn her into a toad. Mortals must be put into their place."

"Hey!" Chloe protested.

"You heard me, mortal." Cassandra said.

"Cassandra, did you forget what your Aunt said about doing it to mortals who don't know about us?" Sabrina asked.

"Whatever." Cassandra replied and the two girls returned to their locker room.

As the second half was about to begin, Gem's hair suddenly became frizzled. "Aaaaahhhhhhgh!" She screamed in horror and left.

"Please tell me it was you." Chloe whispered to Sabrina.

"Unfortunately not." Sabrina replied.

"Am I seeing things?" Danny asked upon seeing Gem's bad hair day.

"She must've used a bad perm job." Samantha suggested.

"Or then it was magic." Clover commented.

"Are you serious?" Danny asked with fake skepticism to protect Sabrina. As someone who occasionally used his powers to exact payback on Dash Baxter, he wouldn't throw the first stone.

"Asks the guy who lives in a haunted town." Clover replied.

"Point." Danny said and kept quiet.

Maritza tried to score a goal but the goalkeeper caught the ball. The goalkeeper threw the ball to Alex. When she reached the opposing goal area, there were too many opponent players for her to think she could score so she instead passed the ball to a teammate who made a low kick. The Greendale goalkeeper, assuming she'd try a high kick, jumped and allowed the ball to pass under her. Alex's team was now winning 3 x 1.

"Don't worry, Sabrina." Chloe reassured her friend. "We'll catch up with them."

"That's not what worries me." Sabrina replied. While Salem told her Aunts and Quigley about Danny and the Aunts told Enchantra, all of them agreed that, since Danny's secret wasn't theirs to tell, there was no need to tell others unless he did something to warrant it. Sabrina's worry was how Danny would react to seeing magic being misused like that and if he'd think it was her.

Maritza tried to score again but the ball hit the top of the goalposts. Sabrina caught it on the rebound and scored. Their team was just one goal down now. The rest of the game went with no further goals. Alex even tried to increase her team's score during the last seconds but the Greendale goalkeeper caught that one. Alex's team won 3 x 2.

Clover and Samantha quickly joined them for the victory celebration. "Where's Danny?" Alex asked upon noticing her boyfriend wasn't with them.

"Mother Nature called him, Alex." Samantha explained.

"He shouldn't drink all that soda." Clover commented.

After answering that call, Danny went Phantom and decided to look for Sabrina for answers. When he found her, he was invisible and she and Chloe were already trying to get answers from Cassandra. "Did you do that to Gem's hair?" Sabrina asked the full-witch.

"You're welcome." Cassandra arrogantly said.

"Don't you understand you could be discovered?" Sabrina asked.

"That might be the case had it been a half-witch like you doing it but I'm smarter than that." Cassandra said.

'No matter if Gem Stone… what kind of name was that? …deserved that or not, I'm hating that Cassandra as well.' Danny thought.

"Witch, half-witch, what's the difference?" Chloe asked.

"A mortal like you would never understand." Cassandra said.

'So this Chloe isn't a witch at all yet she's trusted with their secret?' Danny thought.

"You shouldn't diss us mortals like that, Cassandra." Chloe threatened.

"What can you mortals do?" Cassandra asked in disdain.

"You'd be surprised." They heard a new voice comment. The girls didn't recognize it but Danny did.

"Who are you?" Cassandra asked with a demanding tone.

"We're the Guys in White." The voice said. "I'm Operative O and he's Operative K."

"O… K?" Chloe asked and then chuckled. "Are you serious?"

'No wonder I'm a C student.' Danny thought. 'I missed that.'

"Oh, I remember the tale from when Danny Phantom saved Monster High ghouls from the likes of you." Cassandra commented.

"He had a lucky shot." Operative K said in dismissal.

"Like the 'lucky shot' I will have by turning you into "Frogs in White"." Cassandra tried but the spell was stopped by a device the GiW were holding. Sabrina quickly recognized the device. "A spell scrambler?" She then noticed the aardvark with the GiW. "Elton? That means Tim the Witch Smeller is working with you!"

'Witch Smeller?' Danny thought in disbelief.

"For now, he's being held in our headquarters until we can be sure he's trustworthy." Operative O stated as noticed Elton identifying Sabrina and Cassandra but not Chloe as witches. "We understand he was allegedly rejected by his people for not having magical powers." He then stared at Chloe. "What's your excuse to betray ours, young lady?"

"Witches aren't all that bad." Chloe argued.

"Really?" Operative K asked in disbelief while staring at Cassandra.

"Yeah, but it's not like we don't have our own share of snobs." Chloe said.

"We have no time to discuss it now, K." Operative O stated. "Let's capture them and then check if the traitor is just under a spell."

"Affirmative." Operative K replied and readied himself to shoot a net. Once he did, it was stopped by a blast. "Not so fast." Danny said as he made himself visible.

"A… ghost?" Chloe asked in surprise.

"Danny Phantom, are you spying on us?" Operative O asked. "First you're helping those girl ghouls and now these witches."

Fearing they might be able to connect the dots otherwise, Danny decided to play along. "Uh, yeah. That's how I found out about you then and now." He boasted.

"Hurry!" Cassandra ordered Danny. "Destroy the spell scrambler so I can turn them into frogs!"

"Can't you just erase their memories or something like that?" Danny asked.

"We can work something." Cassandra agreed. Danny then flew through the spell scrambler, short-circuiting it. "Good. Now eat flies, Frogs in White." She tried but more operatives showed up with spell scramblers of their own. "Come on." She pleaded.

"Why did you think no civilians showed up?" Operative O asked. "Some of us are outside."

'Please don't be with them, Alex.' Danny mentally begged. He tried to stop the Guys in White again but they used a beam to stop him.

"Nothing can stop us now!" Operative K exclaimed.

"Stop right now!" A new voice demanded.

"Agent Alpha?" The Operatives asked in confusion.

"We are not in Amity Park where everyone is used to the supernatural." Agent Alpha scolded his subordinates. "The local citizens won't believe any of these girls is a witch. Keep the ghost so it won't be a total waste of time but release the witches and remember to keep the spell scramblers activated so they won't try anything."

As the Guys in White were about to leave, the device holding Danny captive broke down and Danny fled. "Operatives, let's get back to headquarters." Agent Alpha said.

After they left, Danny returned with… another Danny Phantom and they merged together. "Fortunately I've learned how to make duplicates." He commented to the girls. "Now, how is it that she's allowed to know?" Danny asked.

"Each witch or warlock may trust one mortal non-family member with the secret, Danny." Sabrina explained. "I chose her."

Danny accepted the explanation and decided not to ask Cassandra since he figured out she wouldn't let any humans into the secret. "So, what happens now that the Guys in White know about you?" He asked.

"We'll tell Aunt Cassandra and let her decide." Cassandra answered. "She rules all witches and warlocks."

"Danny, will you please destroy the other spell scramblers before the Guys in White leave Greendale?" Sabrina asked.

"Okay." Danny said and then left.

"So, how do you know Amity Park's ghost hero?" Chloe asked.

"That's something I can't tell without revealing secrets that aren't mine to tell." Sabrina answered and Chloe accepted it.

After that issue, Danny met Alex and her friends for a final goodbye before they departed back to Beverly Hills. Their goodbye was sealed with a kiss.

As Danny happily waited for the next bus to Amity Park, he was too distracted to notice Marco Lumiere approaching him.

End chapter.

Author's Note: For those who didn't read the chapter where Danny dated Sabrina, Gem Stone is mentioned as having returned to Greendale through an exchange program.

Author's Note 2: I've brought Chloe back because I'm more familiar with her than with her replacement.

Answer to Leonardo (guest): Obrigado :) Infelizmente não encontrei nenhum. Sabe se tem episódios da terceira temporada em diante em algum lugar mesmo que seja em inglês? Quanto aos Blasters, vamos ver. Espero que tenha gostado do papel da Sabrina. Não, eu não mostrei aonde a Sam foi.
