CHAPTER 16- Redemption of the clone

Vlad stood up and began walking towards Danielle to kill her. Danny pushed Dani behind him and his family and stood in defence.

Jack and Maddie first charged at him, but Vlad easily knocked them down with a simple ecto-blasts, causing them to hit the walls and fall unconscious. Mr Lancer tried to sneak up from behind with a fire extinguisher, but he merely spun around and kicked the poor teacher right in the stomach, sending him falling where Jack and Maddie were.

"We have to get that wristband off him. It's the only thing that's giving him his powers." Danny instructed. "Charge at him all at once. He won't be able to defend against multiple targets."

Danielle watched as they all charged ahead. However, Vlad had proven to be quicker than they thought. He grabbed Danny by the throat and began choking him with one hand, and then used his other hand to throw ecto energy at Pandora, Clockwork, Nocturne, Ghostwriter, Sam, Tucker and Desiree, keeping them attached to the wall.

After holding Danny by his neck tightly for another few seconds, he let him go before punching him right the stomach and sent him hitting the wall hard right near Danielle. With a cry of pain, Danny fell to the ground unconscious.

Danielle gasped and ran straight over to him and pleaded as she shook him, "Get up! Danny! Please get up!"

Vlad walked over to Danielle and stood before her as he said, "You don't get it do you little girl. They're beaten! It's over and you don't dare use your powers again. You should've thought twice before betraying me. I am your creator. I am your master. You have existed all this time, only because I allowed it. What hope could a mere child of defeating her all powerful father?!"

Danielle looked all around her and saw the people that she had spent so much time with. Looking back now, she finally realised what it was like to be part of a real family. To be loved and accepted, whether she was half-ghost or not.

There was no way she was going to let Vlad hurt her family anymore, even if it meant she would melt away. Her eyes glowed even brighter as she stood up and faced Vlad.

With new found courage, she spoke, "You may have created me. But you were never my father!"

She raised her hands and fired an energized blast straight into Vlad, causing him to roar in pain as he was pushed backwards, causing him to lose his focus and the energy holding the others to the wall to fall. Danny, Maddie, Jack and Mr Lancer groaned as they woke up and gasped to see Danielle attacking Vlad head on alone.

Without giving Vlad another moment to recuperate, she fired another blast at him, pushing him back further against the wall.

"Fathers are kind!" She yelled and blasted him again. "Fathers protect you!"

She blasted him once again before shouting, "Fathers love you!"

"Even though I had betrayed them, the Fenton's and their friends still wanted to protect and help me. They made me see the truth and show me who you really are. They are my family and you….will not harm them ever AGAAAAIIIIIN…."

Her final words snapped something inside her and before anyone could react, she had released an extremely powerful ghostly wail. Vlad screamed as he was hit by the raw energy. The wristband couldn't take the pressure any longer and exploded right off Vlad's wrist, taking away his powers and turning him back into a human.

Danielle stopped the wail and looked at Vlad wearily as he fell to the ground unconscious. She looked down at her feet and saw her ectoplasm leaking. Without warning, she fell to the ground.

"DANIELLE!" She could hear everyone shout, before darkness consumed her.
