Ascension Part 3
In Texas, the town of Arlen, Hank Hill just arrived home after waiting specifically for 5pm. He stepped out of his beloved truck and walked to the door, when he heard his wife sounding angry.
"Oh no…" He muttered. He used the key and opened the door, seeing Peggy just slam the phone into the its base and huffed. "What's wrong, Peggy?"
"I've been telling the school to make me a proper teacher! They said no! Saying winning substitute teacher of the year means nothing because, get this, it's just a participation award and nothing important!" She shouted with her arms crossed.
"Well… at least you weren't fired…" Hank said. He looked around. "Where's Bobby?"
"He and Connie are going to a Soccer game and-" Hank groaned. "And meeting up with a friend… who plays… tennis…"
"This is almost as bad as that Phantom and Possible duo rejected my offer a year ago…"
Flashback
Doing a guest appearance in Texas, Danny and Kim were waving, giving all proceeds from autographs and photos to charity.
After one more photograph, Hank Hill, his wife, and son Bobby, approached them.
"Danny Phantom! Kim Possible!" Bobby held up a photo of them. "Could you sign?"
"Sure thing." Kim said.
Both of them signed.
"So, how old are you?" Danny asked.
"I'm 14!" Bobby said proudly.
Both Danny and Kim looked at each other, incredulous to that claim, since Bobby looked very much like a 10 year old.
"He's… a late bloomer." His father said as he approached the two. "I'm Hank Hill, I sell propane, and propane accessories."
His wife stepped. "And I'm Peggy Hill! Substitute teacher of the year in Arlen!"
"Peggy Hill? I heard you of you." Kim said with recognition. Peggy cheered up. "You're that lady who kidnapped a minor in Mexico because you can't speak Spanish."
Peggy scowled. "I do too! Listen to me roll my R's!" She then made sounds similar to a dog growling. "I rrrrr-est my case!" She said proudly.
Danny scoffed. "Lady, I got a C in Spanish and even I know you weren't rolling the R's, you were making dog sounds. Also, didn't you fall for some death sentence guy's lies about being your student despite he's like the same age as you? The prison guards there made a few jabs about it on social media…"
Peggy scowled at them both before walking away.
Hank walked up to them. "Heh… sorry about my wife. Anyway, I was wondering if you and your fancy gizmos could use something much more reliable… like propane?"
Both of them laughed.
"Seriously? We run on advanced stuff and even turned Proud Snacks into a fuel source. Why would we go backwards?" Danny said.
Hank quickly took offense.
"Backwards?!"
"Yeah…" Kim stated. "No offense, Mr. Hill. But Propane is not something worth converting our tech to using."
"Offense taken!" Hank stated. "I take it you'd rather use them novelty grills like George Foreman's!"
"Novelty grill?" Danny asked. "That would imply it can't work like a grill, which it can, so it's not a novelty at all. Heck, I use one at home and make a few good well-done steaks."
"Well-done?!" Hank gasped in shock.
"Personally, I prefer mine with charcoal." Kim said.
That was the last straw, Hank glared at them before storming away in rage.
Flashback over.
"I just can't imagine something worse…" Hank said.
That's when sounds of something in the sky, followed by purple lights, started appearing.
Peggy ran out.
"Look Hank! It's the Northern Lights!" She stated. "I know this because I'm substitute teach of the year!" As she boasted, she noticed something off. Namely, one of the supposed lights was coming towards her. "Wait a min-"
Suddenly, she's engulfed in a blast, leaving nothing but a crater there.
Hank just stares dumbfounded, but the notices his lawn on fire and gives his traditional "BWAAHH!"
Dale Gribble is driving his truck, when he notices, and screams, at the sight of a large blast coming at him. His wife Nancy, and her son Joseph, gasp in horror. She fails to react in time, but her son does, when another blast comes. Jospeh runs, but his mother is hit.
Another blast destroys Strickland Propane.
Most of Arlen is destroyed.
The town of Stoolbend it hit with a rain of blasts, leaving nothing left.
A suburban environment is being pelted with blasts as one house, with a convenient forcefield protecting it, is left. The sole non-robotic inhabitant inside watches in horror.
"THAT METAL MENACE! THIS IS MY WORLD TO CONQUER!" Zim stated. "I'd launch the Vortian Doomsday Missile… but those blasts would go through the shield…" He looked to his robot. "GIR! DO SOMETHING!"
Gir was sitting on the couch, watching the Scary Monkey Show.
"I like the monkey! Less scary!"
The town where Bob's Burgers is located, the entire block is destroyed, with Bob Belcher being one of the few to get away from the blast.
"LINDA! KIDS!" Bob called out as he hid underneath the counter, seeing nobody around.
Beverly Hills was pelted with blasts, leaving only the WOOHP HQ. The Plumbers' HQ was only barely protected. Ridgemount, was destroyed with few survivors. The Center, Greendale, Tremorton and so many other locations known to Danny and his Many Dates were now in ruins.
Even Middleton, which was still under repairs, was not safe
Wade contacted Kim on the Kimmunicator.
"KIM!" He shouted. "THE SKIES! THEY'RE-"
He's cut off.
In the skies, the one who caused this laughed hardy and evilly.
"In my timeline… it took 2 years to wipe 10% of the population… it took me less than 2 minutes now!" His laughter came back. "I wasn't even putting that much effort into it! Imagine what I could do when I put my back into it with all of that power!"
Seeing the orb on the ground, Stitch crawled towards it and picked it up.
"Come get it, Stupidhead!" Stitch shouted.
Thanatos laughed.
"This will be fun… But first… we should show the world what I am about to do. Since my armor incorporated the technology of Ultron…"
The satellites of Earth were then taken over, thanks to the power-up he got from the orb. They then took over the televisions of Earth. Then, with portals he created with a hand wave, released several camera drones. All of them filmed him.
"What's he doing?!" Dani asked.
"Showing the world that he's winning…" Maddie whispered.
Thanatos then appeared on television screens all throughout the world
"People of Earth… you all remember me, right?" People were trying to change the channel, but he was on every single one. "I was the one who just wiped out 10% of the population, a fraction of my new power… in moments… I will become a proper god!"
Zim, watching, became enraged.
"Not if I have anything to say about it!" He looked to Gir and Minimoose. "Any ideas?"
"NYAH!" Minimoose went.
"GENIUS! I'm glad I thought of it!"
"But you didn't think of anything!" The Computer said "Minimoose did."
"I don't pay you to contradict me!"
"You don't pay me at all!"
"Be quiet!" Zim bellows then presses a few buttons on the computer. "UNLEASH!"
The Vortian doomsday missile going through a neighbor's house. The neighbor doesn't notice his house was destroyed as the alien missile came from bellow.
Zim laughed maniacally as the missile heads in the source of Thanatos.
The heroes see it heading towards their location.
Thanatos only scoffed.
"Irken or Vortian? Doesn't matter… I wiped out half of the worlds those idiot green men conquered for this tech." He raised a hand. "Whoever sent this, your hubris is lackluster…"
Once the missile was within close range, what should be a simple blast was in fact a humongous burst of energy that completely destroyed the missile, leaving nothing in its place.
The team below looked underwhelmed by this.
"Wow… who launched that dud?"
Zim was pulling his alien antennae and he looked enraged.
"NO! NO! NO! NO! IT'S NOT A DUD! IT SHOULD HAVE WORKED!"
Gir laughed.
"A dud!" He said as he pointed to the television.
All the while Zim just bashed his head into a wall repeatedly.
Back to the battlefield.
"Now then… anyone else want to try?" The people throughout the world watching, from military, to whatever heroes are still present, remain still. "Anyone at all? No? Well then…" He began descending. "Give me that orb so I can finish."
Stitch held onto it tighter.
"So… remember when I said that it's cool and we don't have to win?" Danny asked everyone.
"Yeah?" Ron responded with a question.
"Well… I was wrong." Danny admitted. "We have to win…"
"Yeah… I figured." Shego muttered.
Ignoring her jab, Danny looked up at their foe.
"You'll have to get through us!" Danny declared.
Everyone readied for battle.
"Fine with me…"
That's when he landed.
After he took a step, everyone armed rushed him. Everyone save for the twins, who were taking their parents back to the Fenton Jet.
With but a wave of his hand, Thanatos knocked everyone down.
Hego and Shego got back up.
"Flank him!" Shego demanded.
Hego ran to his foe and threw a series of punches, each one slapped away.
Shego went behind and tried to blast him.
However, he ignored each one.
"How many do you think you dream of ending me?" Thanatos asked, not even moving. "You are no closer than the mosquitos who land on my armor."
"Justice shall prevail!" Hego stated as he threw a punch into the face, which did nothing.
"You dare to attack a god?!" Thanatos pushed Hego with enough force to send him flying back. "You dare attack me?!"
"No duh!" Shego said as she flipped and started trying to claw his chest.
Lao Shi and Jake, still in dragon form, came in and, once Shego realized what they were about to do and moved away, fire their dragon breath at each other.
Lao Shi stopped a moment to show further disrespect.
"You are a false god! One who seeks only to spread pain and suffering!"
"What they said!" Shego shouted as she fired from a distance.
Soon, others were firing blasts or ghost ray with their own weapons.
"You're not ascending to anything, you fake!" Sam could be heard shouting. "You're no god!"
"Spare me your pathetic opinions! They come from the brains of those too insignificant to comprehend my destiny!" His hands came together and readied to fire. "Now face the god of death!"
He fired a blast.
Both Phantoms rose shields, but they broke upon impact.
The blast knocked all of them down.
Stitch was flown away, hitting the jet and bouncing off the side.
Ron, who was among the battlefield with Yori, looked at this.
"We gotta get that thing away from him!" He said.
"I shall assist!" Yori said.
They walked up to Stitch, Ron kneeling to help him up.
"Here, let me take that. You're better off in the fight anyway."
"Yeah!" Rufus went. "Go fight!"
"Stitch agree!" He handed the orb to Ron and headed back in.
"Let's get going." Ron said.
Yori nodded.
They ran to the jet.
"I believe I saw hovering land vehicles inside." Yori said.
"Then we take them!"
Meantime, as Ron and Yori were up to that, the twins were getting the jet ready.
"What are you boys doing?!" Ann asked.
"Simple, we're gonna get reinforcements!" Jim said.
"Maybe there are other heroes who can help us out!" Tim added.
"We can't leave them here!" James ordered. "We are not leaving anyone with that monster!"
Outside, Stitch was clawing his enemy in the face, but Thanatos was undaunted.
"Annoying little beast!"
Thanatos grabbed Stitch and threw him off.
That's when Jack Fenton came in and threw a punch to the face.
"You've forgotten how your old man can throw a few!" Jack said as he kept throwing, not noticing they were doing nothing. "Come on and give me your best shot! If you want me bowed at your feet, you're gonna have to do it by force!"
After that last line, Jack's punch was caught with ease, to his horror.
"I don't need your prostrations, old man…" He then pulled it out of his face and glared. "I JUST NEED YOU DEAD!"
He was about to blast Jack, but Maddie came in and whacked him repeatedly, doing nothing by annoying him further.
"Under that armor, you're still a ghost!" Maddie shouted. "Soon as we crack it open-"
That's when Thanatos grabbed the lightsaber-like weapon, to her shock.
"I have become as beyond a ghost… as they are beyond you." He immediately threw them both away with minimal effort. "I have faced many who failed to defeat me for over a decade. When will anyone learn it cannot be done?!"
Danny took a step forward.
"I've done it before!"
"Do your worst…" Thanatos had his glare intensify. "For I fear no one…"
He readied his attack.
Stitch climbed back on his face and tried clawing again. Shego, meanwhile, struck his underside, trying to pierce his armor.
"Do it, Shining Armor!" Shego shouted.
Danny nodded. Dani walked to his side and both readied themselves to blast him.
"Insects!" He shouted. He tore Stitch from his face. "There is no freedom from me! Not even in death!" He tossed Stitch away. Then grabbed Shego's arm, his grip making her call out in pain. "Once I have the full power of the Reality Gems flowing through me, I might as well bring you back to life so I can enjoy ending you again and again until I bore of you…"
Hearing that made Danny think for a moment.
Bring back to life… Could that mean…
Once Shego was let go, her arm broken, Danny and Dani unleashed their energy blasts.
They did nothing, to their horror, only getting his attention.
"You presume you could make an attempt to destroy me?! You will pay for your hubris… IN BLOOD!"
Sam came running in, with a shoulder mounted blaster, and fired at him. Tucker, at her side, fired his lipstick laser.
"We won't stomach your evil!" Sam shouted.
Thanatos laughed her off.
"Evil? I am more than that... I am malevolence incarnate! Death to all who oppose me!" He levitated the two up. "You only delay the inevitable. You will earn that you cannot defy me!"
With a wave of his arm, he sent them both flying into rocks, hurting them.
Danny threw a punch into him, but it did nothing but hurt himself.
"We're not dead yet!"
"I can correct that…"
"No you won't!"
Mego grew in size and threw an uppercut, but it did not hurt him. He hissed in pain and waved his injured hand to soothe the pain.
Shego, despite a broken hand, came charging at him.
Thanatos levitated Mego and sent him flying at Shego. "Insects! I cannot be defeated!" Danny threw punches, while Dani flew in and kicked into him a few times. But then they were backhanded away. "I bring oblivion to you all!"
During this, the Fenton ATV's came out of the jet.
"Come on!" Ron shouted, holding a box under his arm. "Good thing Jack Fenton keeps these in case of hams…"
"What became of the ham?" Yori asked.
"Rufus ate it…" Ron said flatly.
"Mm-hmm!" Rufus went, licking his lips.
"I am thinking Rufus is no ordinary mole rat…" Yori said with a disbelieving look.
Still, they both drove the ATV's.
They were not going unnoticed.
Thanatos had both Hego and Jack Fenton trying to get a hold of him, but he pushed them aside and flew towards Ron and Yori.
He cut them off, making them brake hard.
"You have something of mine…"
Ron got up and tried to do a kata, but quickly realized that he's doomed without his powers.
"We should go…" Ron said.
That's when both Phantoms flew in and both tackled into Thanatos, but this did nothing. He once again just knocked them both off.
However, Yori took the box that had the orb in it and drove off.
"Come and take it if you wish, evil one!" She shouted.
"Fine with me…"
He flew after her, shooting the ATV, making it start swerving left and right repeatedly. Before Thanatos made it, Yori threw the box.
"Kim-san!"
Kim jumped into the air and caught the box.
"Got it!"
Thanatos turned around and flew after her.
Mego ran in and took the box.
"I got it!"
He then shrank.
Thanatos stopped where Mego just disappeared. Frustration and impatience already evident by the loud grunt he made, he thew a powerful punch into the ground.
The shockwave damaged the ground heavily, and it caused the shrunk Mego to be thrusted up fast. To save himself from a very painful fall, he had to return to normal size.
That's when Shego ran in, taking the box once Mego landed.
Thanatos was not happy, he flew in and grabbed Shego by the leg and threw her up.
"Hey! Catch!"
She threw the box to Hego, who grabbed it.
"I have it!"
Thanatos flew to him as Danny flew up and saved Shego. He caught her in bridal fashion.
"This is embarrassing…" She muttered. "At least nobody is seeing this…"
"Uh, this is being filmed across the world thanks to those drones, remember?" Danny reminded her.
Shego groaned loudly.
Meanwhile, Hego was using all of his strength to keep Thanatos from grabbing the orb by grabbing hand with one of his own and pushing it back.
"I can do this all day!" Hego insisted.
"You are strong… but strength alone is nothing…"
Thanatos then reminded of a rather common ghost power of his, and used intangibility to go past Hego, grabbing the box with the orb.
Hego looked back and was horrified.
"Finally…" Thanatos said.
Before he could open the box, Dani Phantom flew in and took it from him.
"YOINK!" She went.
Before he could go after her, he's hit with a barrage of blasts from the powerless Fentons, as well as Sam and Tucker, armed with blasters. Jack and his grandfather unleashed their dragon fire. Seeing this, Danny, Kim and Shego added in the attack.
Nothing affected him. If anything, he looked more annoyed.
Stitch snarled and released his second pair of arms.
"Meega nala kweesta!" He shouted in his alien tongue.
Stitch ran in and rolled, gaining enough speed that he bounced and hit Thanatos. It pushed him back, but only slightly.
"This is getting old!" He shouted. "Have you idiots noticed how I wiped out cities in mere moments and haven't done the same to you yet?! That's because I didn't want to waste my new power… but you have left me no choice!"
That's when he began to hover higher into the air, once again taking his angelic rising pose.
Dani looked up at him, then to the box.
"What's to stop us from using this thing against him?" She asked. She opened the lid off slightly just to touch the orb. "Maybe one of us can absorb it to?"
"I wouldn't…" Maddie said. "All that power being inserted into a body at once could have some disastrous results. That's likely why he had to absorb it in a steady amount rather than all at once."
That idea was shot down as Dani resealed the box.
That's when the evil would-be deity started glowing.
"YOU HAVE INTERFERED WITH MY PATH TO GODHOOD! THE WORLD WILL WATCH AS YOU SHALL PAY FOR YOUR BLASPHEMOUS ACTIONS!"
"Wow…" Sam said under her breath, but loud enough for a few to hurt her. "He really does think he's a god or at least deserves to be one…"
The glow soon became like a fire, one that burned as intense as sun if it were setting.
"NOW… YOU WILL ALL SUFFER!"
That's when all of that energy was compressed into his right fist.
Danny's eyes widened when he realized what he was going to do.
"EVERYONE! COME TOGETHER! WE GOTTA FORM A SHIELD!" He looked to the jet. "TAKE THAT THING AND GO!"
Realizing what's going on is serious, James took the controls of the jet.
The boys tried to start it up.
Everyone ran to Danny and Dani as they started to form a shield.
However, Thanatos flew down with speed and force.
His fist hit the ground.
Danny and Dani stood together and formed an energy wall.
From the impact of the punch, a bright, white explosion happened.
Jack tripped on his way to his kids, Maddie stopping to help him up. However, the explosion was going fast.
Hego, seeing this, threw the Mego twins over the wall for protection.
Lao Shi, with no other option, went back to assist the Fentons.
However, the explosion was catching up.
With no other option, those outside the the protection of the wall just smiled at those who will survive.
"NOOO!" Danny called out to his parents.
The light blinded them.
It engulfed those who didn't make it, the Fenton jet, and those inside it.
The shield broke and those behind it were pushed back.
The explosion ended.
Once the area was no longer light, the drones filming the entire thing descended from the sky where they were safe, the world saw only a few people left in tact from the area that was now even more damaged.
Slowly, Danny got up, seeing everyone behind him still injured.
"Guys?"
They were slowly getting up. Dani blinked for a moment before the horror kicked in.
"Mom? Dad?"
Jazz gasped and looked around. "Where are they?"
"Gramps?!" Jake called out in horror.
Kim saw where the jet was, and the shock hit her.
"Mom? Dad? The tweebs?" Her eyes started to water. "No…"
Ron looked around, panic hitting his face. "Yori?" He saw no sign of her. "YORI?!"
Shego, and the Mego twins, just stared in horror at the disappearance of their brothers. Both of them gasped in horror as she hugged them to keep them from seeing it.
Thanatos, still in once piece, only laughed.
"They have paid the price for their decision to be blasphemers. Now… give me the orb…"
Dani held onto it tighter.
"Forget it!" Jake shouted. "You just made us less interested in giving it up!"
He flew at Thanatos at full speed, but the evil ghost turned intangible before contact could be made. He grabbed Jake by the tail once he was tangible again and pulled him in, striking him in the back and breaking one of his wings before slamming him repeatedly into the ground and throwing him away.
From New York, his friends and family saw this and were horrified.
"Jake!" Rose called out.
Stitch tried to attack as well, but a wave of Thanatos using his hand sent the little blue alien shot away.
From Hawaii, a certain young girl saw her best friend being sent flying.
"STITCH!" Lilo shouted.
Continuing his slow pace towards the box, Ron stepped in.
"MY GIRLFRIEND! YOU'LL PAY FOR THAT!"
Ron wan toward the evil, but he was backhanded and sent the freckled young man down.
His family in Middleton, among the survivors, gasped in horror.
Shego ran at Thanatos, with one more attempt to fight him, but simple flick of his finger knocked her on the ground.
At his island home, which was spared from the assault, Senor Senior Jr. was panicking.
"My teacher! She is suffering!" He cried.
The Mego twins duplicated into several of themselves, only Thanatos to create an energy wall that he pushed towards them. It knocks them all out, returning it to just two.
Sam, Tucker and Jazz kept firing their weapons while Dani handed the box to Kim.
"Take it and go! We got this!" She said as she ran in and fired.
Danny reached his hand out but was too late.
"Sis! No!"
It was too late, she was among the rest of Team Phantom, firing.
Shaking his head, Danny looked to the box Kim was holding. He looked to Kim and the two nodded.
Meanwhile, Thanatos didn't even try to dodge or block, he just walked forward. That's when he noticed the two were leaving, Danny carring Kim via her armpits as she held onto the box.
"Enough of this!"
Deciding he had no more patience, he hovered and curled up. What he was about to do is usually something Danny does to push back his foes, but this is something far more painful. He unleashed an energy ring used for repulsion that knocked all of them out and sent their unconscious bodies sliding in the dirt.
Their friends and families in Amity Park were all horrified.
At her home, Valerie Gray tried to leave, but her father stopped her.
"Valerie, no!" He shouted as he stood in her way.
"If I don't, he'll kill them!" She argued.
"If you go, he'll kill you too!" He argues back.
Valerie stands down, her mind pieces together no counterargument or way to avoid such a fate.
Once they were out cold, Thanatos looked up and saw Danny and Kim were at least a mile away.
He scoffed. "How pathetic…"
He didn't see Kim and Danny had been talking.
"Are you sure about this?" Danny asked.
"It might work." Kim said. "I mean, he's technically you so it might work."
They didn't see what Thanatos did next.
He flew at full speed, passing the two and cutting them off.
"You lovebirds going somewhere?" He jabbed before literally jabbing Danny.
The attack sent the two falling into the ground.
Once there, Thanatos landed, sending a barrage of punches on Danny. Then he stomped his foot on Danny chest, followed with one more punch to the face. A stomp on his leg, breaking it, a stomp on his arm, breaking it to, then ending it by tossing Danny aside and looking down at Kim for holding the box.
"Now… give me the orb." He took the box from her hands. "Finally… my ascension is…" He opened the box, only to become enraged by what he saw. Or rather what he didn't see inside. "GONE?!"
Everyone on Earth, and even the Ghost Zone via tapping into everyone's television, saw this and were surprised.
Kim smiled, pointing at Danny. Danny got on his knees and revealed he was holding the orb.
"Kim gave it to me while in the air. Come near me and I'll use it…" He threatened, bringing it closer to his chest.
This only made a roar of laughter come from his evil self.
"That's your plan?! Idiot! I drained it with a steady stream. To absorb all of it at once is dangerous unless you are powerful enough. It takes time for that power to settle, or else it runs the risk of killing the user." He explained. "Are you so eager to see if you have the strength to use it?! Actually, let me answer it for you." He used his power to make Kim fall to her knees, rendering her unable to get up. He then aimed a finger. "Surrender the orb… or she joins her family…"
"Don't do it, Danny!" She called out despite the pain.
"SHUT UP!" He shouted before speaking to Danny again. "What's your answer?"
Danny looked back and forth between Kim and Thanatos, his thoughts unfocused.
Kim… but… the orb. What… what do I do? I gotta save her… I gotta… do something!
Then he remembered something.
"All you need to know is your choice that Summer day lead you to meeting Kim Possible and falling in love with her and the choices you make now will determine your fate with her…"
"All I can say is what you saw is that can happen so long as you don't give up."
Then he remembered a certain little girl. One who looked like himself and the love of his life.
"Is Daddy coming home soon?"
That girl, Annie, was back in his head.
She looked so much like Kim…
"I love you…"
Words he and Kim exchanged many times.
Ever since that first date, she's been someone he could never stop thinking about, never stop loving. The day she became his girlfriend, then admitting their love, then her forgiving and accepting his secret after some time apart, their love for each other never stopping even when things were at their worst.
To be with her became a greater dream than becoming an astronaut.
He won't let anyone or anything stop him from saving her.
"Well?!" Thanatos shouted. "What's your answer?!"
Danny looked back to his foe, then to Kim. He saw her looking worried and gave a comforting smile.
"Here we go…" He whispered.
He phased the orb into his chest.
That's when a shockwave came from him. Then his body began convulsing and what looked like electrical shocks appeared on him. His pained screams caught the attention of those who were knocked out, waking them up, and those watching via the drones.
The whole world saw him in pain. Past dates crying for him, friends and even foes looked to him with sympathy even in the Ghost Zone.
All the while, Thanatos scoffed.
"I guess that's my answer…" He looked to Kim. "I'll pry it from his dead body… once I'm finished with you."
Kim, though straining herself, looked up and smirked.
"At least he goes down with his humanity…"
"Hmph… clearly he made a choice just as quippy as he is." His finger started to glow, indication what he was going to do right now. "On the bright side… I get to kill you after all…"
Hearing that, Danny stopped convulsing and crying in pain. He looked to see what was about to happen.
The world froze. All he saw was Kim and memories flashed in his head.
Their first date, their first kiss, their first dance, saving the world, making new friends… the vision of their daughter.
I won't give up…
Another shockwave happened, one that stopped the evil ghost and surprised him. He stopped using his power to keep Kim down and lowered his hand. Looking to his right, he saw Danny wasn't in pain anymore. Kim could see it to. As could those at home and their allies from far away.
Danny was standing up straight. His injuries gone. However, his glow was brighter, almost on fire. He looked over his shoulder, showing a look of both calm mindedness and focused rage towards his evil self.
He was not amused.
"So… you survived. Big deal…" He raised his finger back at Kim. "She still dies!"
However, something very fast swooped in, carrying Kim away in about 100th of a second, much to the surprise of Thanatos. He looked ot his left.
There, he saw Danny Phantom, standing near their allies as he took a knee, all the while carrying Kim in a bridal manner.
That's because he really did fly that entire distance in such a short amount of time. He let Kim down as he stood up.
"Danny?" She asked.
"Whoa… Bro?" Danielle asked as she and the others gawked at this.
"Did you really just do that?" Jake asked.
"Cool…" Tucker and Sam went.
Danny did not lose his look, nor did he really interact with them. Instead, he looked to his foe. Thanatos looked ready to make a move, but then something happened.
Danny flew fast. He pushed Thanatos, with enough force that sent him flying into a nearby hill, creating a crater.
Everyone just watched in amazement.
"When could he do that?!" Shego questioned.
"Wow!" The twins went.
"Ooh!" Stitch went.
Thanatos opened his eyes and glared at Danny. He got out of the crater and landed, but then Danny flew into the air and fired a ghost ray that knocked him down. Then Danny fired his Ghostly Wail, pushing him back into the hill and creating a larger crater. Then, with one hand, compressed the Ghost Stinger into a small orb. He threw it and, once it hit Thanatos, shocked him greatly. As he made his pain audible, Danny threw a green fireball that engulfed his foe. After that, Danny flew in and threw a punch into the ground, reaching Thanatos and encasing him in ice.
"Boo-yah!" Ron cheered loudly. That's when the ice suddenly broke apart and Ron's smile left him. "Okay… un-boo-yah.."
Angered, Thanatos stood his ground and glared at Danny with killing intent.
"It's time I buried my past…"
Taking the blades from his back, Thanatos swung them at Danny. However, Danny created the constructs of a sword in his right hand and a shield in his left. With that shield, he blocked the twin blades. He then countered and swung his sword at his foe's midsection, cutting into the armor and hurting him. In response, Thanatos tries to stab Danny, but he bobbed away from each strike and slashed again. Frustration clear, the older Phantom started swinging wildly, but Danny avoided each one, parrying that last swing with ease. Then Danny sent a flurry of sword swingings, damaging the armor and one inside it. Though Thanatos and his armor had healing, it still angered him.
He retracted his blades and snapped his fingers, once again creating a voice of darkness. His intention was to strike at Danny where he could not see him. However, when he threw a punch, Danny caught it. In fact, Danny's body was emitting enough light that the darkness.
This was a shock to Thanatos, as there should be no light. Still, he kept going, trying to attack Danny. Each time, however, the attacks were caught. Each block made Danny somehow react faster and grow stronger until finally countering and elbowing his foe, causing him to be pushed back and end the darkness of the Void.
Now, both Phantoms glared at each other, readying their fists. Then they ran to each other
Thanatos stepped up and threw a punch, but Danny dodge nonchalantly before rolling to the side. Thanatos turned and threw another punch, but Danny blocked and threw his own fist into the midsection, breaking the armor a bit. Danny threw another punch to the head, connecting and doing some damage. His foe attempted to grab him, but Danny ducked and jumped over his foe, kicking him in the back of the head. Getting angrier, the evil Phantom tried to throw more punches, but Danny avoided each one by bobbing his head back and forth and threw another punch that was an uppercut before flying up.
Not giving in, Thanatos followed. Soon, Danny's white glow would collide with Thanatos and his dark glow, tackling into each other from the sky several times. Then one more collision and the two were in the other's face, glaring hatefully at each other.
Thanatos made another attempt to attack, but Danny easily countered and swung a kick into his foe's head. Thanatos threw one more punch, but Danny easily caught it and threw a small barrage of punches into his foe before tossing into the ground. With his foe down Danny fired various ghostly blasts at his target.
With one more trick up his sleeve, Thanatos rose his hand and produced a small green orb. Once Danny's attacks came at him, it absorbed them, expanding to near car size.
"Fool…" He responded.
He fired the attack at Danny. In response, Danny slapped it to make the blast go away.
That's what Thanatos wanted.
In that instant, he flew in and threw a punch, finally connecting with Danny. Then he threw another. Soon, Danny was seemingly unable to fight back as Thanatos kept attacking.
"Try all you want, Danny. But I still have half of the orb's power and far more abilities and experience. Once I'm done, I'll drain it from you!" Then, somehow, Danny disappeared, to his surprise. "What?!"
He looked around, but then noticed someone was behind him. He turned around.
It was Danny, who flicked him in the face. The force was somehow enough to send him careening into the ground, creating a large cloud of dirt.
Once getting up, Dark Danny noticed the skull-like helmet was destroyed when he touched his face. He gritted his teeth in rage. Then Danny appeared in front of his with blinding speeds. He grinned.
"Perfect…" He reached out to grab Danny. "Now-" That's when Danny grabbed the gauntlets of his arm, ripping them off, to his shock. "WHAT?!"
Danny reached for the exposed wires of the armor around the arms and, with his hands looking on white fire, grabbed the dark fires and pulled them out. Dark Danny's god-like power was gone, to his utter disbelief.
In Danny's hand, the fire turned white and he pulled into himself.
Another shockwave, this one knocking Dark Danny back, happened. As the armor restored the gauntlets and he got up, he saw Danny changed one more.
His eyes were all green, glowing intensely, and the fiery white around him livelier.
Angered, Dark Danny, once his armor's face restored to make him Thanatos once more, tried to attack. That's when Danny released his rings. Usually to repel, this time the now enlarged rings are powerful enough to damage the armor, and hurt Thanatos greatly. Taking a moment to catch his breath, Dark Danny fired ghost rays again, but they did nothing. He tried the Ghostly Wail, still nothing. Danny produced the rings again, hurting him and damaging the armor further. In close range, Danny fired a ghost ray into his chest. The blast sent his foe 3 miles worth of distance away and damaging him further.
His armor now restored, while rage evident, Thanatos started to turn red.
"Activate Extinction Mode." He said. He rose into the air once more. "YOU'VE DONE IT NOW! THE ATTACK I USED TO DESTROY THE LORWARDIANS?! NOW I'M USING UP ALL MY POWER TO FIRE IT AT 200% PERCENT!" Danny, unafraid, rose into the air. "YOU CANNOT DEFEAT ME! I AM INEVITABLE! I AM THE GOD OF DEATH! I AM… THANATOS!"
Like before, he created the same attack from his battle with the Lorwardians. He fired.
He thought he had won.
However, he didn't see what happened. Danny flew in and blocked with his hand. Not with a shield, just his hand. It did nothing.
"And I…" Speaking for the first time since this power-up, Danny's voice was echoed and sounding much more booming. That voice caught Thanatos off guard as the smoke cleared and Danny was there, unharmed. That's when his fist started glowing white with the same flames. "… am Danny Phantom."
Danny's arm pulled back for his punch.
Thanatos' eyes widened and he tried to stop it.
"WAIT! NO!"
Danny thew the punch, breaking the armor and punching Dark Danny out of it with the force needed to break through the back. This sent him fast into the ground, creating a large cloud of dirt, a loud bang and a powerful shake.
With the user gone, the armor fell to the ground.
Everyone else was there, still seeing what just happened despite being so far away.
"Whoa…" Shego said, genuinely impressed. "Kimmie… your boyfriend is tough."
Once Kim made no answer, everyone noticed she wasn't there.
"Kim?!" Ron asked, looking around.
Danielle saw her and pointed. "There she is."
Since Kim wasn't tired or in pain like the other, she ran in the direction Danny was in. Then she used the suits blasts to propel herself into the air to make a series of long jumps.
Meanwhile, Danny saw the chest of the armor was forming around a rectangular object. He remembered what he was told regarding a certain someone. So, he reached in and pulled it out. Once he did, the armor stopped healing. It lost all power and limped into lifelessness.
The drones that were filming the entire event, apparently being powered by the suit's presence, all turned off, preventing the world from seeing what happened next.
Danny dropped the object and stepped on it. It created a crack, a very large one. One that was seeping some kind of purple smoke. The purple smoke rose out until finally taking a shape. The shape of a certain robed figure who groaned and tried stretching his back. He then took notice of Danny.
"Took you long enough…" Clockwork said while taking on his child form.
For the first time in this form, Danny gave a smile. One of relief for his friend. Then he took his serious look again as he floated over to Dark Danny. Clockwork chose to turn invisible to let things play out.
Kim, not seeing Clockwork, arrived to see Danny hovering over his Dark self, who was almost bowing due to how injured and tired he is. He finally looked up to see Danny glaring down at him.
"How does it feel?!" Dany questioned. "To have your plans, your future, all ruined by someone with your face?"
Dark Danny just stared blankly before a smile hit his face and he started laughing.
"I see now… I should have done this before…" He kept laughing as he started to get up.
"What's so funny?!" Danny questioned, not happy to see this.
"I was a fool!" He said. Seeing Kim, he pointed at her. "I don't need to kill her! I just needed you to get a taste of that power!" He said. "How does it feel?! All that power is yours! You can use it for whatever you want! So do it! Go ahead!" He held his arms out, tempting Danny. "I still got plenty of time left thanks to this medallion, so make it go by faster! Do it! You have both time and space in your power, use that Reality power! End me! Either I kill her… or you kill me! Either way… I still win! I WILL STILL LIVE!"
In that instant, Danny seemed to have contemplated his words, holding his arm up and readied his fingers for snapping.
Kim, watching, gasped in shock.
"Danny?" She asked quietly, yet still loud enough for him to hear.
Danny turned his head to face her. She was worried… until he smiled.
It was that same loving smile he always gave her, one that made her feel comfortable. It made her calm down.
That's when his fingers snapped. A flash happened.
Dark Danny readied himself, ready to see Danny abuse his power. However, when he opened one eye to look down, he saw nothing happened. Both eyes now open, he looked disappointed and confused.
"What?" He looked around. "What did you do?"
Danny smiled.
"I hit undo…"
That's when Kim's Kimmunicator went off. Something she found surprising, even as she answered.
"Kim?"
Her eyes widened. "Wade?"
"What just happened?"
"KIMMIE-CUB!"
Her father's words caught her attention. She looked and saw all those who disappeared in that explosion earlier were standing together with the others. It made her gasp, a smile coming to her face.
"No way…"
Hank Hill got up from the ground, gasping for air. He looked around and saw that he was at Strickland Propane, all okay.
Bob Belcher found his restaurant was okay, his family was inside and unharmed.
Others who were apparently wiped out, including Dash Baxter, Bonnie Rockwaller, and Mr. Lancer were suddenly getting off the ground where they were, all unharmed.
"Shego?"
Drakken was there among them, shaking his head.
Seeing Drakken and, not caring for how it'd look, Shego quickly hugged him happily. He was confused at first, but hugged her back with a smile.
It wasn't just them; their surroundings were okay as well. Buildings were as though nothing ever happened, trees were restored, even the Fenton Jet was restored. In fact, even the area they were in was quickly restoring to normal. Danny, Kim and Dark Danny saw they were in the park.
Dark Danny, unable to comprehend this, glared at Danny, who was no longer glowing like fire.
"What did you do?!"
"I basically hit control Z, or command Z, and undid everything you've done since escaping Clockwork's tower." Danny answered flatly. "That even means returning the powers to their rightful places…"
"WHAT?!"
Danny wasn't kidding. All the objects of power stolen were returned. The Arc Reactors were back at Stark Industries, the Power Combiner was back in Nora Wakeman's lab, the Silver Crystal returned to Sailor Moon, while the Ring and Crown of Pariah Dark returned to their rightful place, where their master was sleeping. All that was left was the Tempus Simia, which landed in between them.
"Huh… I guess this little guy's place is here for now. Probably has a reason to be here." Danny questioned.
Dark Danny didn't pay attention to that, only what Danny just did.
"You… IDIOT! WHY WOULD YOU GIVE IT ALL UP?! YOU HAD BECOME A GOD! YOU HAD THE POWER TO MAKE THE WORLD, ALL OF TIME AND SPACE AND ALL TIMELINES AND REALITIES, YOUR'S TO COMMAND! YOU GAVE IT ALL UP?! FOR WHAT?! HER?!" He pointed at Kim.
Danny scoffed. "What's wrong with that?"
That made Kim smile as she walked up to Danny and put a hand on his shoulder.
This made Dark Danny sick to his stomach. However, the sight of the Tempus Simia brought a smile to his face.
So, he flew in to grab it.
"Fine! I'll just use that to go back in time and-"
Then, to his shock, the Tempus Simia rose in the air before he could grab it. The one holding made his presence known. It was Clockwork, in his adult form.
Kim took a step back, but Danny put a hand on her shoulder.
"It's cool. This is Clockwork, the one I was telling you about." Kim calmed a bit. "He was inside the armor as a battery, he's the reason the cannon had no effect on him."
"And now… I have a certain something I should have taken back a while ago." He said. He then looked to Danny and Kim, winking at them before turning into an old man. "He's all your's…"
He disappeared.
Kim had to blink to make sure she wasn't seeing things.
"Did he… turn into an old man?" Kim asked.
"He also turns into a kid. I'm not sure which is his true form…" Danny told her.
Angered that his plans have been ruined, Dark Danny got back on his feet.
"If I have to fade away… either I take her life to see if it breaks you… or I'm taking you both with me!"
Seeing the fight isn't over, both of them nod and readied for battle.
Dark Danny fired a ghost ray, but both of them avoided it. Danny fired a blast of his own. Though Dark Danny blocked it, Kim shot a blast in his chest with her suit, hurting him.
He tried to threw a punch, but Kim's advantage in physical combat helped her avoid it. Danny flew in and kicked his evil self in the face.
Dark Danny attempted to blast them, but Kim reacted fast and avoided while Danny rose a shield with his hand. They started hitting him with punches he was unable to react to in time. He went intangible, but Danny used his hand to create a powerful flash that blinded him, allowing them to kick him together.
Dark Danny then split into four. However, this did not help. Danny and Kim went back to back and fought in perfect unison. Holding hands like a dance, they would swing the other away from a blow, counterattack, and put each Dark Danny out of commission with kicks and punches until only the original was left.
Dark Danny threw one last punch, but Danny caught it. Dark Danny tried to fire at them, but Kim pushed the hand out of the way before the attack could do anything. With a nod, they both fired at his face, making him step back.
He attempted to do a Ghostly Wail, but Danny reacted face. He shot a blast of ice into Dark Danny's mouth, causing the ice to keep his mouth wide open. With a shared uppercut, both Danny and Kim made the ice crush, hurting his jaw.
As Dark Danny pulled back and breathed heavy, the couple spoke.
"He's weak from fighting you…" Kim pointed out.
"Which means we can win…" Danny said.
Both of them nodded and readied a punch that had each fist glowing.
Dark Danny was too late to reach to what was about to happen.
Both Danny and Kim threw their punches, side by side, shoulder to shoulder, and each hit his chest.
The shockwave of their combined energies went through his body, affecting a certain time medallion.
The punched sent him into a tree, knocking down.
Tired from his battle with Danny, and injured even further, he could only get on his knees as he panted and went on his palms for support.
Both heroes looked down at him.
"It's over Thanatos…" Kim said seriously before looking confused. "… or… Dark Danny or Dan or… whatever we're supposed to call you…" She got serious again. "Danny's never going to be you."
Dark Danny huffed in anger. He looked up and glared murderously at her.
"Let's see… if you're right…" He rose his hand, but the sound something hitting the ground caught his attention. Looking on the ground, where his chest was over, he became enraged. "NOOO!"
His hand, which was risen, started turning blue, almost glass-like.
Both of them stepped back, surprised by what's happening.
"What's happening to him?" Kim asked.
Danny saw what was on the ground to enrage Dark Danny. It was a time medallion, a broken one.
Danny remembered the punch he and Kim did. The combined energies must have damaged it. Even though it was intangible, the energy and shockwave somehow affected it.
He knew what was happening, even as Dark Danny's left leg turned into the glass-like substance.
"It's over…" He whispered.
"Huh?" Kim asked.
"He's out of time… literally. He didn't get a chance to do what he needed. He didn't get to you… he didn't get to turn me bad. I'm never gonna be him, which means… he's never gonna exist."
Dark Danny huffed in rage, trying to get up to murder them, but now both his legs were glass while the arm he had up was dissolving, dust rising and disappearing.
"NO! THIS CAN'T HAPPEN TO ME! NOT AGAIN! I CAN'T LET WHAT I'VE DONE BE UNDONE AGAIN! ALL THE EVIL! ALL THE DESTRUCTION! I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE MORE THAN THIS! I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A GOD!" He glared at Danny specifically. "YOU! YOU COULD HAVE BEEN MORE THAN WHAT YOU ARE! YOU COULD HAVE BEEN ME!"
"Why is that a good thing?" Danny asked. This angered Dark Danny more. "You threw away your humanity. It didn't make you better, it made you throw away what made us what we are. There's not a trace of who you were left in there, just his bitterness, the aspects of us we should never have had." Dark Danny's lower half became glass-like, his feet disappearing. His other arm was now glass-like, dissolved from the elbow down. "So what if I would've become stronger? I have friends and family. In this timeline… I have them and a cool little sister." He held Kim's hand. "I have the coolest, hottest girl as the love of my life. But most of all, I'm actually happy…" Dark Danny was now glass to all but his head at this point, glaring up at them. Danny smiled and shook his head. "I'll never stop being the person they love… the person she loves…" He and Kim shared a smile before looking back at Dark Danny. "I will never be you…"
This evil being, who had nothing but violence and destruction on his mind, glared up at Danny, rage in his eyes. His arm was gone, as was everything past his knees.
As the glass reaches around his head, about to go to his face, he only had one last thing left to say, with a look of disgust on his face.
"I hate you…"
His face turned glass, the look of hate still present.
Then, his body broke to dust, rising up and disappearing. He was gone, erased from existence. Gone forever and never to be mourned.
Danny and Kim, still holding hands, looked up where he disappeared.
He was finally gone. Now, relief was on their faces.
Both of them looked to each other, smiling happily at the one each of them loves.
Danny was about to kiss her, when Kim held a finger to his face, just to clarify something.
"Just to be clear..." Kim began to ask. "No more secrets?"
"Nope." Danny said happily. "He was the last one…"
Danny was about to kiss her, but she spoke up again.
"You don't have a son with someone evil from the future, do you?"
"... no."
"Evil twin brother?"
"No..." Danny rolled his eyes.
"Psycho ex-girlfriend?"
"NO!"
Kim had one eyebrow raised. "... accidentally blew up a planet?"
"Can we just kiss now?" Danny asked, hiding how eye rolling Kim was being with a smile.
Kim shrugged in acceptance.
"Sure thing..."
They shared their kiss.
Once done, they walked towards their friends and family. Danny have an arm around Kim's shoulders.
Once they met up with everyone, all of them were ecstatic to see the two again. Kim quickly hugged her parents and brothers while Danny was hugged by his parents and his two sisters.
While this was happening, both Drakken and Shego nodded.
"Don't think because you've saved us means we're through with world conquest!" Drakken said. "We'll give it a break, but soon it will be Drakken's chance to rule!"
Drakken did his evil laugh, something everyone scoffed at until a certain someone arrived. Someone hovering above them.
"GHOST!" Jack shouted as everyone not familiar with Clockwork got defensive.
"Whoa! Everyone!" Danny shouted. "This is Clockwork… he was held captive in that armor. He was the power source and the reason the cannon didn't work."
"I'm here to give this back to a certain order…" Clockwork said, holding the Tempus Simia as he handed it to Yori. "The Chronal Energy has been removed."
"I apologize for taking so long for this to be returned, master of time." She said with a bow.
"It is fine. Next time I'll have more precautions for when I'm stuck in an armor for two years." Clockwork said.
"This armor?" James Possible questioned.
He, Jack and Tucker were all looking at the discarded Thanatos armor.
"Dang, that's awesome." Tucker said with a grin.
"Even I'm impressed by this thing…" Jack admitted while nodding.
"There must have been some kind of dampener that kept your signature from being detected, even by Danny's ghost sense…" He pointed to the armor's chest. "Do you want to see?"
Clockwork hovered over. He took a good look at the armor before a disgusted look showed up and his staff appeared in his hand that levitated the armor in a glow.
"I don't ever want to see this thing… ever again…"
The armor then began to rust all over before, like its wearer, it began to crumble into dust before completely disappearing.
Everyone looked at the armor's dissolving with a level of discomfort.
"Well… I should have taken a look before I asked." James said.
"I see that Than- or... Dark Dan- whatever we're supposed to call him… just disappeared." Maddie asked.
"He's history…" Danny said. "Or… not really. Since he failed to ruin my life or become a god, he's disappeared."
"Where'd he go?" Ron asked.
"Nowhere… he doesn't exist anymore." Clockwork answered. "He will never hurt anyone again…" He looked to everyone around. "Now… let's send you all home."
"Actually…" Kim rose a hand. "Now that Danny and I aren't targeted by any supervillains at the moment, can you send us somewhere… where we can finally celebrate graduation properly?"
"Kimmie…" Her father began scolding.
"Honey… they've graduated and they've saved the world. Let it slide…" Ann insisted.
James sighed. "Fine…"
Clockwork smiled.
"Very well…"
With a wave of his staff, everyone began disappearing to their respective locations.
"Peace out!" Jake told everyone.
"Until we meet again…" Lao Shi bowed.
"Aloha!" Stitch waved.
"Fare thee well!" Hego went, to Mego annoyance.
"Whatever…" Shego went with her arms crossed.
"Be good kids!" Maddie said to her son and his girlfriend.
"We will be!" Danny went.
All of them vanished. The last is Clockwork.
Jake and Lao Shi returned home, where they were greeted.
"Jake!" Rose went, hugging Jake and kissing his face.
Stitch was back home, where his Ohana waited.
"Nicely done, Stitch!" Lilo went.
"Stitch help Danny Phantom and Kim Possible save world!" He went
Team Go returned to their tower.
Drakken and Shego were back in their island lair.
Ron and Yori were at his house, seeing his family. While the Possibles were at their home, which was no longer in shambles.
Sam and Tucker went back to their families, while the Fentons were joyous to be together again.
All the while Clockwork observes and smiled from his tower, which reformed once he got home.
"Ah… it is good to be home…"
"It's about time…" One of the two Observants who arrived went.
Clockwork groaned. "And… we're back to normal..."
"Not exactly…" The other one said. "It seems that Danny Phantom restoring the world went wrong…"
Clockwork knew what he meant and saw through a few monitors.
The adults of Quahog woke up.
"I can't believe it…" Peter Griffin went. "We're alive… we're alive!"
Peter, along with Lois, Bonnie, Brian, Quagmire, Lois' parents and Herbert were joyous, Brian was the first to notice something wrong.
"Wait… this isn't Quahog…"
"Yeah… he's right." Quagmire said.
"This isn't even a town…" Herbert said.
"Where are we?" Lois asked.
"You're in a maximum-security prison." A prison guard said right next to them. He did not look happy to see them. "And you're all technically trespassing… which is a felony here…"
All of them looked concerned.
"NO!" Jimmy Pesto screamed. His house and restaurant were still in shambles. "How am I supposed to make money now?!"
"Hey! Jimmy Pesto!" Bob called out from across the street, getting his attention. "Hugo is so desperate for money, he took a job as my dish washing guy! I can actually afford to pay you because Danny Phantom eating her boosted my business! I could use someone to pass out samples!"
"FORGET IT!" Jimmy Pesto said! That's when his cell phone rang and he answered. "What is- wait… what?! What do you mean I'm being sued for food poisoning? HOW MUCH?!" He groaned and walked to Bob, defeated. "Fine…"
Bob laughed giddily.
"This is great… what do you think, Linda?" He asked his wife, who tried to speak, but nothing came out. "Oh yeah… all that screaming… Kids?" All of his kids looked traumatized by the carnage that happened. "Okay… never mind."
Hank was scratching his head quickly.
"NO PROPANE?!" He questioned. "There's no propane anywhere in Arlen?!"
"No!" Bob Strickland said. "Also, to make matters worse, most of my stocks are gone! And I'm being sued for all sort of charges… I'm going to jail, Hank!" He said.
As he walked away in frustration, Hank was left wondering what happened.
"First Bobby makes those dang videos and is making money of those ridiculous gags of his, now this?" His cell phone rang. He answered. "Hello?"
"HANK! It's me!"
"Peggy?"
"I'M IN JAIL! IN MEXICO!"
"WHAT?!"
"I tried to tell them I'm lost and need to go home, but they said I called myself a great turkey. I don't think their Spanish is ve-" She broke down into tears. "WHO AM I KIDDING?! I'M AN IDIOT!" She kept crying before hanging up.
"Hank!" Enrique came in. "We have one truck with propane!"
"Well, alright!" Hank went. "Come on, let's go before they rely on charcoal."
Once Enrique went back out, he saw something that shocked him before Hank came out. By that point, it disappeared.
"I think I saw some kind of ninja Spider-Man with a gold arm…"
"Don't be crazy, Enrique." Hank said as he walked up to the ladder than lead up to the top of the tank. "This here's golden age-" He smelled something off. "That doesn't smell life propane… that smells like…" He gasped. He went over to the top lid, which was opened, and smelled something mixed with the propane. "BWAAHHH!
"We… we live?" Warhok asked.
He and Warmona awoke in their spaceship.
"It is a miracle!" Warmonga went. "For Lowardia!"
"We will have our vengeance on that accursed world! Then we- why is the room so warm?"
They noticed the ship was getting hotter, and turning red. Looking out the window, they knew why.
"Oh… frackle…" Warmonga muttered.
Their ship was heading towards the sun.
They were too busy with that they didn't notice someone else in the room.
"Hey?! Where am I?!" Roger asked. "And why is it so hot?!"
"That's not all!" One Observant said. "That Bob man's sister-in-law was sent to an asylum and her cats are either in an animal shelter of the owner she stole from... Stoolbend is still a destroyed mess and inhabitants are homeless… and I'm pretty sure that fairy dog Sparky… well… turns out fairy dogs can have their immortality removed…"
"Clearly... a certain man in red and black used a certain gauntlet to take advantage of Danny Phantom undoing his evil self's crimes."
"Should you not undo these added changes?" One Observant asked.
Clockwork took notice of Peter Griffin now in a prison uniform and crying in horror at how he has no way out, Hugo Habercore was washing dishes while grumbling in defeat and the Lorwardian ship hit the surface of the sun in a humorous manner.
"Ehh... I don't disagree with these changes... Besides, the world is saved. Let's just let this be a night where our heroes have a good night together…"
Bth Observants shrugged.
"Fine…"
They disappeared, leaving Clockwork to sigh in relief.
"Finally… Peace and quiet…"
Danny and Kim sat next to each other on a rooftop, holding onto each other. Kim has taken off her battlesuit so that she can sit with him in her original mission gear.
"So… we never found out. Why do you think he sent me that e-mail? I figure he meant Jazz as the sister since it was singular. What's your take?"
"My guess, he just wanted to mess with us." Danny said. "Doesn't matter. He's gone for good."
"So… no more secrets?" Kim asked.
"Nope…"
"What about the one you're clearly hiding because I can tell when you lie." She asked playfully.
"It's not so much a secret as it was… I guess a dream."
"You guess?"
Danny took his arm off Kim and took a breath.
"Okay… promise you won't freak or whatever."
"Okay?"
"I saw a vision… of you… with a kid."
Kim rose a brow. "A kid?"
"Yeah… she had your mom's name but as your uncle called her, Annie."
"Annie?" She asked.
"Yeah… she looked like you…" Danny's face started to turn red. "Except for her eyes… They looked… the look-"
Danny found himself too shy and "awkweird" as Kim put it to speak up.
"They looked… what?"
"Like… mine…"
Kim just blinked to make sure she heard that right.
"Our… daughter? Is that it?" She asked to be sure.
"Whatever happens… happens. That was just something I kind of hope happens…"
Danny looked away, feeling awkward to have that come out of his mouth.
However, Kim kissed his cheek and put a hand on his.
"I'd like that to happen too…" She said sweetly.
Hearing that, Danny relaxed.
"Well… we have all the time in the world before college… let's make sure we want that future…"
"I already do…" Kim said. "I already have the love of my life with me."
Danny smiled fondly as he hugged her again. "I love you too."
"Now…" Kim said. "Let's finally celebrate for real…"
With that, the two began to kiss deeply.
They parted.
"So, ready for dinner?" Danny asked.
"Absolutely." Kim answered happily.
They left the building, Danny carrying Kim in bridal manner, and arrived outside Café De Fleur.
Once they entered, everyone in the restaurant immediately applauded, extremely grateful.
Both of them looked sheepish as they accepted this.
Once a waiter walked up to them, he smiled greatly.
"Please, come, let me seat you."
Before they could go, Danny remembered something and, once turning human, reached in and pulled out his wallet.
"I forget if I have enough money for-"
"No worries." The waiter said graciously. "My wife was among those you've saved today, and so was our manager, so whatever you eat is on us tonight."
Both Danny and Kim looked surprised to hear this, but accepted it.
So, they sat down, having their dinner. Danny ordered a steak, Kim got herself a pasta, and ordered dessert they'd normally never get due to it being a bit out of their usual pay range.
It was an hour later when they decided to leave, though they left a $20 for a tip.
Walking together, with Kim's head resting on his shoulder and Danny happily with his arm around her. They would end up in the park together, just like their first and second dates, when they began making out together.
Their lips parted and their foreheads pressed together.
"So… about that little girl?" Kim asked. "Any idea of when you might… you know… propose?"
Danny thought. "Maybe… in our early 20's?"
Kim smiled.
"Alright then. I'm in no hurry to have kids. But I'm also in no hurry to leave right now…"
Danny chuckled. "I love you…"
Kim smiled back. "And I love you…"
They began kissing deeply some more.
Finally, after all this time. No evil would-be gods, no villains, no revenge plots, no aliens…
Just these two who love each other together.
And that was all they wanted and needed.
And with that, the three-parter and the reign of Dark Danny/Thanatos is over.
Everyone lost is back... except the Lorwardians... and Roger. In fairness, nobody would miss them that much. Also, it looks like Sparky is dead... so...a GREAT future indeed!
We only have a few chapters left, but I'm going to let this take one last small break to work on other stories I've been neglecting.
Also, I had King of the Hill characters in this just because I thought it'd be funny to make fun of Hank's propane obsession, with you-know-who doing a certain something after drinking a lot to the last of the Strickland propane.
Yes, you know who I talk about... don't wanna say his name. Please remember, he's just exaggerating opinions of mine, he's not actually doing what I'd want to do... except maybe get Sparky dead.
Invader Zim's appearance was a request by Invader Johnny.
Also, anyone on TV tropes who think Dark Danny/Thanatos could qualify as a Complete Monster, this is where he's done, so go ahead and make an effort to have him added in 2 weeks.
Now for replies:
Invader Johnny: Danny frees Clockwork, and restores the planet. Also, hoped you like Zim's appearance. I didn't have an idea for what he'd do after that, sadly...
danifan3000: Man of Steel shows us it doesn't look right, the red balanced the blue. Plus, Superman's outfit was based on what strong men at the circus wore back in that era.
Jebest4781: Indeed, Jupiter is someone I've had my eye on. As for Musa, well if it were Bloom I'd have made an attempt.
Meazm: Hey, you're a psychic. That was plan long before the reveal of who was in the armor.
BeConFuzzled Writer: Drakken did not survive, but Danny did reset all of it to some extent... and you know who made some changes. And Danny gave it all back because he's got no interest in being a god. Also, best of luck with you spin-off involved Phantasma. If you need help, let me know.
61394: Indeed. And now that Clockwork is free, he destroys the armor.
qazse: The fight is over... but the story is almost done. However, I'll give it a small break.
Major Simi: And now... it's over. Our heroes won. And I had to make sure Kim was with Danny at the time they defeated him and shared the final blow.
