Chapter 28: Working Weekend and Tucker's Match
Saturday
Tucker was in a great mood. Today is the day that he and Velma are going out. She said to meet him at some cafe in Elmerton around noon and he is really looking forward to spending time with his perfect match.
"Hmmm...Hmmm...Hm....."Tucker hummed as he put on his good clothes and dabbed some after shave on.
"Going somewhere, son?..."His dad, Maurice asked, while his mother also looked curious.
"I got a date today..."Tucker said proudly.
His parents were surprised, before they suddenly got stern looks on their faces.
"Tucker, we told you, no more dating services after that shameful "TooFineTuck" incident..."His mother, Angela scolded.
Tucker groaned.
His parents found out about his fake dating profile and grounded him for a week and said that he couldn't do any more dating service due to being dishonest. He was upset but on the plus side, at least he already managed to find a great girl in Velma.
"Mom, I haven't used that service since the Summer...but I am dating a girl that I met through it before my month ended, Velma, the special one I told you about...'Tucker said, his parents looked curious.
"Oh, yes. I think I recall you mentioning a nice girl named Velma..."Angela said thoughtfully.
"Did you meet her as Tucker Foley or as TooFineTuck?...'Maurice asked.
"Hey, I changed my profile before I met Velma, I swear. Ask Danny..."Tucker said as he even crossed his heart.
His parents lost their scolding expressions and then smiled.
"Well, if that's the case, have fun on your date, son..."Angela said, pleased to hear that her son got a date and he was actually honest in his methods to getting it.
"Just remember to be back in time for curfew..."His dad said.
"I will..."Tucker said as he continued to fix himself up, feeling amazing right now.
It's Saturday and he has an actual in-person date with Velma Dinkley, his perfect match and the one girl who knows more about tech than he does.
It rocks!
Meanwhile
While Tucker was busy getting ready for his big date, Danny and Kara had things to do as well.
Danny and Kara were in their civilians forms and were now eating at a nearby cafe that Danny's father had recommended. Kara had come to him, to figure out strategies but had gotten hungry, so Danny brought her here.
He and Kara both got some desserts as they began to talk. He even bought Kara a box of cookies that was big enough for four people.
She ate it all in under 5 minutes, while Danny could only stop.
"Wow... thanks. At least I am not stress eating..." Kara said as she wiped her mouth with a napkin.
Danny has a panicked look.
"That WASN'T stress eating?...'He thought but wisely didn't say out loud.
He knew that Kara had a big appetite due to being an alien but sometimes...well, he is still getting used to watching such a petite(and pretty) girl eat as much as his dad does.
"Anyway Danny...about...you-know-who?..."Kara said and Danny sighed.
"Any luck getting in contact with your cousin or the League?..."Danny asked and Kara shook her head.
"No, and even if he was here, even I am not sure what he can do. Vlad knows who I am and it's only a matter of time before he figures Kal-El out, and that's only if he didn't already figure it out..."Kara muttered, looking frustrated.
"Hey, remember...I promised that we'll get through this, together..."Danny said as he placed his hand on her strong yet smooth one.
Kara calmed a little as she looked at him and Danny sighed.
"Look, I am not going to sugar coat it. Vlad is tough and tricky...we're just going to have to be even tougher and trickier when we deal with him..."Danny explained.
"I hate this..."Kara said.
"You and me both..."Danny sighed as he ate the last of his doughnut.
"You sure that nothing strange has happened?...'Danny asked.
"Depends on the kind of strange you mean? Remember..."Kara said as she lowered her glasses a bit to prove her point.
"I mean...nothing Plasmius-like has happened?..."Danny asked.
"No...the only danger I faced this week was an attack from Toyman, three separate fires, a bank robbery, a museum heist and stopping some punks from joy riding...it's been pretty slow, actually..."Kara said to her boyfriend.
"For real?...'Danny asked.
"Yeah, nothing ghostly...well, the bad kind anyway..."Kara said with a light tone.
Danny didn't think this is a light matter, though. something Kara picked up on.
"Kara..."Danny said.
"I mean it, I have been attack by any ghostly bad guys this week..and that is what worries me.."Kara said, looking down.
He knew what she is talking about. The uncertainty. The worrying.
The fact that Vlad Plasmius was tricky and had two decades worth of experience with ghost powers, not to mention his various minions, both in the Human World and in the Ghost Zone. In addition to the fact that he is a billionaire who could buy whatever weapon or hired gun he wanted, and he didn't even have to mention his political power as the mayor of a large city
He is trouble, they both know that.
He also knew that as long as Vlad knew her secret identity, she can't relax. He knew because he has been feeling this kind of stress since the first time he fought Vlad in Wisconsin. He didn't want her to keep going through this.
She doesn't deserve it.
"This is all my fault. Vlad only found out because of her connection to me..."Danny thought, feeling upset.
He saw the look on her face and sighed, before squeezing her hand once more.
"We'll think of something to do about Vlad, what matters is that right now, you're safe..."Danny said as he leaned a little closer.
"I won't let do anything to you again..."He said.
Kara wanted to believe him. She really did.
As nervous as she was about this whole thing, one look into Danny's gentle blue eyes and she calmed herself for the time being. He was reminding her that no matter what happens next, she won't face it alone.
"Danny..."Kara started.
"Yes?..."Danny questioned.
Kara just said nothing, but a small smile was on her face as she placed a small kiss on his check.
"I believe you..."She whispered.
Danny hoped no one was looking because right now, he was beet red in his face. And he smiled.
"She really is something else..."Danny thought, feeling his heart skipping a beat.
Kara is amazing and she is his girlfriend. His top priority is to make sure that she'll be okay and that includes dealing with Vlad ASAP.
The ghost boy wished he could help contact the league. The less information Vlad has on them, the better, but they need to be prepared. Vlad was not foolish enough, nor enough of an egotist, to take on the entire Justice League by himself.
Though, given what he has done before, he probably shouldn't put it pass him. He has tried to take on both the Ghost King and Vortex and it resulted in Danny having to clean up the big messes that he made.
"I just can't stand this. Is there even one part of my life that Vlad won't ruin?..."Danny thought, frustrated.
He has already tried to ruin his home life, his school life and now he is spoiling his love life. Vlad ruins anything he feels like.
Well, he is not going to let him keep ruining things, starting with Kara.
A gentle squeeze from Kara broke him out of his thoughts.
He saw her smiling at him again and he smiled back. She really is something precious. He has to make sure that no harm will come to her or her cousin. That's his responsibility.
"Come on...we can talk more about work at my house..."Danny suggested, realizing that talking about plans are probably better to do in the privacy of your own home.
Kara nodded.
"Okay, Danny..."Kara said before throwing away the cookie box that she has long since emptied.
The two shared a chaste kiss as they paid their bill and walked out. Their hands were locked as he lead her away. As Danny and Kara walked away together, hand in hand, another blonde was looking at them.
It's Star Strong, the second most popular girl in the A-List and Paulina's "BFF".
She and Paulina were here at the bakery, trying out some of Paulina's favorite "low fat" treats as well as gossiping and complaining about how unfair school has been this year. Paulina didn't notice Danny and Kara when they walked in...but Star did.
While Paulina spent too much time complaining about how it is unfair how something so delicious had so many calories, Star's attention had been on the couple. She didn't totally understand...much. anyway.
Star has always expressed a vocal dislike of Danny Fenton since the day they first spoke to each other. However, since this Kara started dating him, something was different.
Star was less eager to badmouth him. In fact, right now she was looking glumly at the two with her arms crossed.
"I still don't understand why she is with him...I mean...Fenton is such a loser! But he did somehow managed to get 27 other girls into him...hmpt...sure, compared to Foley, he's not the biggest loser...and sure, he has nice blue eyes, but-
"Star?..."Paulina questioned before taking a bite of her "diet brownie".
"Huh?..."Star snapped out of it and saw Paulina, who looked annoyed now.
"What's wrong? Why are you staring at Fenton and his girlfriend who clearly made a poor choice? You know that he is a loser and she clearly has poor taste..."Paulina said snobbishly.
Star shook her head.
"I'm not staring at them! I was just... thinking... They just happened to be where my eyes were looking while I drifted off..." She claims.
Paulina rose a brow.
"Okay then..." She believed her, before she took another bite of her fancy, low fat and high maintenance brownie.
Star sighed as she sent one secret look in the direction where Danny left...with his girlfriend.
"Why do I care so much?..."Star thought as she looked down, not having any appetite, even for suppose low-fat sweets.
Later
At Fenton Works
Danny and Kara were in the privacy of the OPT center, his parents were home but Danny claimed that they just wanted to watch a movie on the TV up there, since dad was busy tinkering with his weapons. Jazz and even Sam were here too but the two girls still felt awkward around each other.
Sure, they were up here, but they weren't watching any sort of movie.
They were trying to figure out what to do with Vlad next.
Kara noticed how oddly quiet and whispered to Danny.
"Why aren't they talking to each other?.."She whispered.
"Jazz hasn't forgiven her for what happened yet..." Danny answered.
"Oh... okay." Kara said, realizing what he means.
Sure, she forgave Sam but it seems Jazz is still taking some time. She said nothing, since right now, they have more urgent matters to attend to.
"So, we all know why we are here? To talk about how we are going to deal with Vlad..."Kara said, trying to be professional here.
That's when Sam noticed someone was missing.
"Why isn't Tucker here?..."Sam questioned.
"He's on his date with Velma, remember?..."Danny said, while Kara sent him a look.
"Date?..."Kara said.
"Believe me, if you know how unlucky in love Tuck is, you'd get why he's not here..."Danny said and Kara decided to take his word for it.
"So... what's going on? What is Vlad up to now?..." Jazz asked.
"I'm worried Vlad is going to take advantage of knowing my identity. I can't really handle the idea that some creep like him is aware of who I am..."Kara explained.
Sam frowned at hearing that.
"Has... anything happened since then?..."Sam asked, not sarcastically since this is an urgent matter.
"No... and that's what worries me..." Kara said.
"I keep feeling that if I let my guard down for even a second, he could strike. He knows who I am and where I live..."Kara said.
"Now you know how I feel...'Danny said, before comforting her.
"Look, I know personally what it feels like, but remember, compared to the two of us, Vlad hates me more, so he is probably going to target me more..."Danny said.
"That doesn't make me feel better...'Kara said.
"I just hate this and even worse, my cousin is off world but I am worried Vlad is going to figure him out too, it's only a matter of time, if he hasn't already done so..."Kara bemoaned.
"Well, he's already tried capturing you and he failed. I don't think he'd try to go to your cousin. No offense, but isn't he the stronger one between the two of you?..."Sam questioned. She didn't say that to be insulting, she was asking an actual question.
"Yes but we have the same kind of weaknesses and he already used kryptonite once...I just can't stand this..."Kara said
"Well... has anyone bothered looking into what he's done?..." Jazz asked.
Everyone looked to her.
"What?...'Danny questioned.
"Vlad spied on you guys, so maybe it's time to spy on him. I mean, you both haven't heard from him since the formal...Even Dad hasn't heard from him in days...'Jazz commented.
Danny and the others thought about it. Jazz did have a point, but Kara is still unsure.
"I don't know..." Kara said.
"Well, he doesn't have any lead lining on his walls..." Danny said. "We could go and you can x-ray it?..."He suggested
Kara looked worried.
"Are you sure? I mean, he might have something against us, just waiting for us..."Kara said, feeling paranoid.
"I don't think he'd be that prepared so soon..." Danny said.
"Not to mention that he is, as Danny once said, as subtle as a flying mallet. We would have found something by now..."Sam said.
Kara thought about it and sighed.
"I guess it is better than just being a sitting duck. Okay. I'm heading over there to see what that creepy fruitloop is up to..."Kara said.
"I'm going with you..."Danny said.
"Yeah, that's probably a good idea...Worst comes to worst... you both could get out of there..."Sam said.
"I'll stay here and cover for mom and dad..."Jazz said and Danny nodded.
"Okay, but pay close attention to the Fenton Phones just in case we need backup..."Danny said.
"Got it...'Sam nodded.
Danny soon transformed and then turned to Kara, but Sam and Jazz were surprised to see that she was already in her costume.
"Wait, how did you change so fast, we didn't even see you?..."Jazz asked.
"Now's not the time to talk about that, we got a creep to deal with..."Kara said.
"She's right...If me and Kara aren't back by curfew...uh...you know...just pay attention to the Fenton Phones and only call Tucker if it is necessary but if not, let him enjoy his date..'Danny said as he took Kara by the hand and soon fazed out.
They were on their way down town...to the mayor's office and Vlad's lair.
Oh boy.
Meanwhile
In Elmerton
Tucker had just gotten off the bus and is now in the center of Elmerton.
Sure, Elmerton is less..ideal compared to places like Amity Park, but it's where Velma is and he is glad to be here.
He followed the directions that she texted him. She said that they were meeting in some restaurant called Burger Binge. He arrived and saw that it looked pretty retro. Like one of those hip burger joints you'd see in the 1960's.
"Heh, looks like I'm early..."Tucker commented as he checked the time.
It was 11:45 am. He and Velma were suppose to go meet at noon.
However, he suddenly heard the sounds of police sirens and he looked out, to see several squad cars all headed down this street.
"Huh?..'Tucker commented as he got up.
He wondered if he should go call Danny. No, he is not sure what is going on. Sam and him would probably suggest seeing what is up before jumping to conclusions.
he ran out, just to see what is going on and if it is worth calling his superhero friend about. He figured that it wouldn't take too long since it was at the end of the street.
Hopefully, he'll be done and not miss his big date with Velma.
Outside
Tucker had ran to the end of the street and to his surprise, he saw something that made him...confused.
He saw what looked to be a guy wearing a bad Halloween costume but without the mask, in a net that was connected to a tall tree and around this guy was a group of kids, his age and older, along with a large, brown great Dane with black spots on his back.
Tucker recognized one of the kids, the one that held what looked to be a mask as she spoke to the police officer.
"Velma?...'Tucker whispered.
She didn't see him yet due to the crowds.
"As you can see officer, Old Man Jenkins is the culprit..."Velma stated.
"Again..." Shaggy stated like it was a daily occurrence.
"So he's the one who robbed the bank, huh?...'The officer said as his fellow officers grabbed several bags worth of gold bars.
"Yes, it turns out that Mr. Jenkins was using this disguise to scare away the factory workers..." Velma explained to the police
"Right and once they were gone and the factory was forced to shut down . He and his buddies would be able to steal more gold bars from the bank and bury then here and come back for them when the heat was off..." a red haired girl explained
"AND I WOULD HAVE GOTTEN AWAY WITH IT, IF IT WASN'T FOR YOU MEDDLING KIDS AND YOUR DOG!..."The guy in the costume ranted before being dragged off into the police car.
Once the cops and crowds had left, Tucker ran up.
"Velma?...'Tucker shouted.
Velma turned around and gasped in delight.
"Tucker..."Velma ran to him and the two were in a hug now.
"How've you been?..." He asked, being really happy to see her.
"Good..." Velma said as she let him go. "Just dealing with this little business first..."She said as she gestured to the factory, now that the cops had old man Jenkins in custody.
"What was that whole thing about, anyway?..."Tucker asked.
"I told you that me and my friends solve mysteries..."Velma said.
"I know that you said that you and your friends try to solve monster sightings and fake haunting but...I don't know why but I thought it be less...like this..."Tucker said, he still found it odd, given how skeptical she is.
"It's probably how she keeps herself from losing her mind.... He thought.
He smiled as he saw her. She is just as cute as he remembered.
"So, what was the mystery here, anyway?..."Tucker asked.
Velma began to explain the details and once she was done, all Tucker could say is this.
"So... the pumpkin ghost people mentioned...?...'Tucker paused.
"Turns out that man the police took was faking it..." Velma said.
Tucker heard that there was a suppose haunting happening in Elmerton, about some pumpkin ghost that Danny had found too ridiculous to believe but even Mr. and Mrs. Fenton tried to find it but they couldn't detect any ghost activity in the area. Figures, since it wasn't a REAL ghost.
"An old man was haunting this factory?..."Tucker said.
Tucker found the event, oddly hilarious.
"Why?..."He just had to know.
"Apparently, he and some friends were smuggling gold bars from a bank not too far..." Fred pointed to the bank, only a block away.
"And he disguised himself as the Great Pumpkin to scare folks off..."Daphne supplied.
"Why a pumpkin?..." Tucker asked. He found that even odder.
Mystery incorporated shrugged their collective shoulders.
"Like, not all of these costumes are smart..." Shaggy whispered to Tucker.
"Enough about that, time for introductions...Tucker, meet Mystery Incorporated. These are my friends, the ones I told you about..."Velma said as she gestured to the group of kids.
"This is Fred Jones..."Velma said as she gestured to the tall, blonde guy.
"Nice to meet ya..."Fred said as he shook his hand.
"Daphne Blake..."She pointed to a pretty red head.
"Hi!..."Daphne said, showing a friendly smile.
Tucker tried to hide a grin at seeing Daphne, since he was dating Velma after all.
"Norville Rogers...'Velma said, in a sort of teasing way and Tucker tried to repress a laugh, not wanting to be mean here.
"Like... call me Shaggy..."The tall, lanky boy said.
Velma then showed him the large brown dog he saw earlier.
"And last but most certainly not least is...
"Scooby Doo!..." Their great Dane went.
Tucker's eyes widen.
"Uh... did he ju-"
"So, are you ready for our date?" Velma asked. "We're all done here..."She said as she took his arm.
Tucker noticed she didn't seem to have issue with a talking dog, so he decided to just go along with it.
"Sure thing, V...'Tucker said, deciding to worry about a talking dog later.
Tucker and Velma soon left to go on their date, while the members of mystery inc were all talking.
"So, what do you guys think about Velma's boyfriend?...'Daphne asked.
"Seems nice..." Fred said.
"Like, I don't have a problem..." Shaggy responded.
"Rheah..."Scooby said in agreement.
As the members of mystery inc went to the Mystery Machine, some civilians had noticed one thing.
"Did that dog just talk?...'He questioned.
His friend just shrugged
"We've got a girl flying around in armor and the next town has a ghost superhero who fights other ghosts. Is a talking dog really that weird?..."His friend said, pretty unfazed by the whole thing
The first guy shrugged
"Eh, you've got a point..."He said before going back to his personal business.
Meanwhile
Back at the Burger Binge
Tucker and Velma were sitting together as a waitress just took their order.
Tucker was happy to be with her. Velma is the only girl he ever liked who actually liked him back and he was thrilled to have another in-person date with her.
However, there was something that he just had to ask...
"So...uh...Velma...does Scooby usually-"
"Talk?..." Velma asked
"Yes, he does and yes I knew you'd ask. Most people back home have gotten used to it but I remember how unusual it can be.."She said.
"It's not that weird..." Tucker said.
After all, he had seen weirder things due to being best friends with Danny Phantom.
"Still...how?..."Tucker asked.
"It's a little complicated to explain. I guess the easiest way to explain is just that he was born that way. It's sort of a rare generic mutation that happens among animals..."Velma explained.
"A mutation?...'Tucker questioned.
"Uh huh..."Velma said.
She said nothing else though.
Tucker figured that there might be more to that story, but he won't pry. He figure that she'd tell him when the time is right.
Besides, he wasn't in any real rush to know, anyway.
"I see...well...He seems like a nice dog..."Tucker said and Velma smiled
"He is..." Velma reached across the table taking Tucker's hands in hers "But I want to focus on things other than Scooby Doo...'Velma said with meaning.
Tucker grinned.
"So this is what it's like to have actual chemistry with a girl. Awesome!..."Tucker said as he continued his date with Velma.
Meanwhile
With Danny and Kara
While Tucker was busy on his date and Jazz was covering for them, Danny and Kara went to go investigate Vlad.n
Both teen heroes were hovering outside the mayor's office. Both of them wanted to be prepared for anything.
They were at the top of a building just a few buildings down and Danny made the two of them invisible. He did whisper this to Kara.
"Can you see from here?..."Danny asked.
"Yes, unless the entire building is covered in led. I should be able to see inside..."Kara said to her boyfriend.
Once he was sure that she could see and that they were far away from any unwanted eyes, he dropped the invisibility and turned to her.
"Okay Kara, do your x-ray thing..."He said.
"Okay..."She said before she squinted her eyes and began her x-ray scan of the city hall, looking up and down.
Danny, despite seeing this before, couldn't help but admire it. He always thought this was cool.
"I'm surprised just squinting your eyes can do that..."He whispered to her.
"It's more than just that. I have to focus on it. The best I could explain it is if imagine you're pushing something from out your eyes..." Kara said.
"I see..." That's when Danny had an admittedly immature thought.
"You don't... use them to look through clothes, do you?..."He couldn't help but ask.
That's when Kara stopped what she was doing and gave him a rather dirty looking smirk, making him blush and curl into a fetal position to hide a certain region.
"KARA!..." He said with his face red.
Kara giggled, finding him hilarious like this.
"Oh, you can be so gullible, Danny..."Kara laughed.
Realizing that she was just joking, he dropped the embarrassed look in favor of an annoyed one.
"Haha. Very funny..."Danny muttered, realizing that she was just messing with him.
"Relax Danny. I was raised better than that. Besides, Kal-El and aunt Martha would never let me hear the end of it if I did something like that..."Kara said.
Danny relaxed a little more after hearing this.
"Oh..."He said, a little calmer now.
"Besides, I rather wait until we're married for stuff like that..."Kara said as she then went back to scanning the building.
"Oh... okay." He said in relief before he registered what she said.
"Wait... what?!..."He shouted as Kara giggled again.
"You make this too easy, Danny!..."Kara laughed and Danny rolled his eyes as he realized that it was another one of her jokes, but still had a small smile on his face.
"Okay, Ms. Chuckles. You had your laugh but aren't we suppose to be doing something here..."Danny reminded.
"I know...I get it. Jokes are for later..."Kara said as she went back to using her x-ray vision on the mayors office.
"See anything?...'Danny asked as Kara continued to use her x-ray vision.
"Hmmm...well, there's no lead... but no Vlad either..."She said.
"You sure?..."Danny asked.
"No, not a thing. If I didn't know any better, I'd say this just another boring office..." Kara said, sounding a little frustrated
"Keep looking...he has to be here some place. It's day time and he is SUPPOSE to be in office..."Danny said.
"He is a mayor...maybe he stepped out. Look..we just have to wait, okay..."Kara said.
"Okay..."Danny said.
Later
Almost half an hour has passed and both Danny and Kara were beginning to get bored and tired from just staying in this one spot and in Kara's case, she was getting a little tired from using her x-ray vision so much.
She knew that when you had to investigate bad guys, you had to be both quiet and patient, but it could have it's boring times.
And this is one of them...
"Now I know why Bat-Girl complains about stakeouts... this is so boring..."Kara complained.
Danny nodded in agreement with his super girlfriend.
Danny briefly wondered if Vlad was using some sort of new cloaking device or if this was just a part of his plot too.
"Man, I think I'm officially paranoid..."Danny thought.
He then turned his attention to Kara and decided that it was his turn to break the tension.
"Well, there's one bright side to this..." Danny said with a smile "I get to spend time with the most beautiful girl on two worlds..."He said flirtatiously.
Kara blushed, before she playfully rolled her eyes. Never the less, she smiled as she started kissing Danny on the cheek
"You're very sweet but let's get back to work..."She said and Danny nodded.
Danny and Kara continued their stake out.
"Anything yet?.."Danny asked for the tenth time.
"Not yet..."Kara said.
A few seconds later, her eyes widen as she noticed something.
"Wait...I think I see someone coming..."Kara said.
"Who? Is it Vlad?.."Danny asked, feeling anxious.
Kara looked closer, but saw that it was only Deputy Mayor Sanderson.
"No, it's someone else...that Deputy Mayor that you told me runs the town when Vlad is too busy with his plots..."Kara said.
Danny heard this and frown. It's afternoon and Vlad wasn't in his office.
"Come on, let's take a closer look...'Danny said.
"What if it's a trap?..."Kara asked.
"I doubt it. Sanderson and the city council are just Vlad Masters minions, not Plasmius. They have no clue about their boss's double life..."Danny said as he took her hand, made themselves invisible and flew to the mayor's office.
Inside the Mayor's Office
The two teenage super heroes fazed into the mayor's office and saw that Deputy Mayor Sanderson was the only one there. He was oblivious to the fact that they are hear and was grumbling out loud.
"That darn Mayor Masters...I still can't believe that he picked this week of all weeks to take a vacation. He knows that we have to work on the budget this week...I still don't know how he got the rest of the council to let him go, he didn't even say where. He's even worse than Montez was!..."Deputy Mayor Sanderson mumbled in anger, looking well passed annoyed.
He had no idea of the two teenage super heroes who heard his every word.
"Vacation?..."They both thought in confusion.
Outside
"Vacation? Do you believe this?...'Kara asked.
"It's about as believable as burgers and fries being good for you..."Danny muttered.
"Vlad wouldn't take a vacation like this and he wouldn't do something major like what he did to you and just take a trip..he is definitely up to something..."Danny said.
"But what? Even the city council don't know where he went..."Kara said.
"I think I have an idea...Come on, I say we go pay the mayor a little visit at his home...'Danny said and Kara knew what he was meaning.
A little later
They had arrived to Vlad's mansion to try and see if they could find the villain.
"How much of the house can you see? Can you see the basement?..."Danny asked.
"Yeah. Still in ruins though..." She said.
Danny had told her that he once destroyed Vlad's basement during the summer as payback for trying to ruin one of his dates. It looks like it still is in ruins.
"I still don't see that creep anywhere..."Kara said.
She then saw Danny offer his hand to her.
"Maybe we should take a closer look?..."He suggested.
Kara nodded and took his hand.
Both of them flew down and phased through the roof.
All the while, someone has just observed them. Someone who-
"Hey, FP!..."A certain mercenary suddenly shouted.
"Oh... it's you. Hey, what brings you here?..."Someone who only this person could see, said in mild amusement.
"Just finished throwing a brick at the Griffin house when I saw this opportunity..."The guy said, though if anyone where to see him, they wouldn't see whom he was talking to.
"You're never gonna change, are you Wade?..."
"Nope!..."This guy said, sounding proud of the fact.
Back to the story
And inside the Mayoral Mansion
It took them a good 10 minutes but now, in the living room, both of them sat in Vlad's rather fancy chairs and were left baffled.
"Where is he?..." Kara said.
"He even turned off the creepy hologram version of my Mom..." Danny muttered.
Kara sent him a look but decided not to ask. She rather not know, to be honest.
That's when he looked up and saw Vlad's rather egotistical painting of himself.
"Hmmm...I wonder..."He thought.
He flew towards the painting and pulled it back, revealing the portal was deactivated.
"He didn't go through the Ghost Zone... He must have shut it off before he left..."Danny said.
"So... where is he?..." Kara asked, sounding more concerned.
"I don't know..." Danny answered.
Outside
Danny and Kara had just left Vlad's property and were at the top of the building.
Both were confused and in Kara's case, agitated.
""Where could he have gone?..." Kara asked, not liking this at all.
"He does have a Summer home in Colorado..." He thought out loud. "But my gut tells me he'd never run away. He's probably somewhere plotting payback on us..."He suggested.
"Payback?..." Kara asked, sounding worried.
"No worries... your cousin should be back soon, right?..."Danny asked.
Kara nodded, but still looked concerned.
Danny put a hand on Kara's shoulder.
"We'll find him... he can't hide forever and once we find him, we'll ruin whatever evil plot he's got cooked up this time...okay?" He said to calm her down.
"Okay..." She said while nodding.
""I just don't get it...why-how did he just disappear without a trace? I still don't understand why nobody, not even my Dad, knew he was gone before we got here..."Danny thought out loud.
"Plot convenience, probably..."Someone said, causing Danny and Kara to turn around is surprise.
Danny saw what looked to be a man on the other side of the roof. Danny looked surprised, while Kara narrowed her eyes in annoyance.
"Uh...wait...who is this guy?...'Danny questioned to Kara, who groaned, making it obvious that he is familiar to her.
"He's a moron who hit on Wonder Woman..."Kara grumbled, recalling the last time she and the league had to deal with this guy that resulted in Diane trying to beat him up and he just kept coming back for more.
"Heyo! It's me kids! Deadpool! I'm FINALLY in the proper timeline! Thanks FP!..."The merc with a mouth said as he looked up.
"No problem, Deadpool...sorry that it took so long..."FP11 or Flower Princess11 said sheepishly.
"It's cool, though I am still a little upset you let the Warner's use my lazy writing line..."Deadpool said.
"It's nothing personal Deadpool. I thought it could have been a funny, irony moment..."Flower Princess 11 said.
"You still could have had me appear then and there...'Deadpool said as he even crossed his arms.
"Do we have to do this now, in the middle of the chapter?..."FP11 asked, still a little embarrassed here.
"I don't see why not!..."The merc with a mouth continued to argue with the writer.
"Congrats on making it to the main timeline! Chimichangas on Vlad..." a guest author said. "
"Hey BCW...Any other authors here?..." Deadpool waves to the sky, at the confused concern of Danny And Kara.
Danny and Kara just saw some weirdo in a red suit with weapons, on a roof top, talking to the sky and acting like it's responding to them.
Danny was a bit dumbfounded by this to say the least.
"Uh... who is he talking to?...'Danny asked as he turned to Kara, who dragged a hand over her face in annoyance.
"He's insane..." Kara stated.
That didn't make Danny feel any better, especially when this red maniac finally stopped talking to his invisible friends that only he could hear.
"So, you two super lovebirds spying on Count Vlad?..."Deadpool said.
"Uh... yeah?" Danny asked.
"Well, he's not here. I checked. Still not hard to think he's a villain... it's ALWAYS the politicians..." Deadpool looked up at the sky.
"NeoMark co-wrote this part, didn't he?"..."The merc with a mouth said with some attitude.
"He left me a message in case you asked that. It reads "Shut up, Wade"..."FP11 said to him.
Deadpool ignored this and was about to move on with the plot when he sensed someone else...
"Wait, I know this writing style...Number boy, is that you pal?..."The crazy merc said, sounding excited, while Danny was getting weirded out more and more.
"Should we call someone?..."Danny whispered to Kara.
"I wouldn't know who to call to deal with THAT..."Kara said as the mercenary continue to speak with his imaginary friends.
"Hi Wade, good to see you..."61394 said.
"Yeah you too... I'm surprised you haven't driven FP crazy yet with your writing yet..."Deadpool said.
"You would know about driving people crazy..." 61394 said.
"Uh, don't mean to be a killjoy here but don't we have a chapter to get back to?..."Flower Princess11 said.
"Yeah, she's right...besides, I think Danny and Kara are freaking out..."BeConfuzzled Writer commented.
Deadpool looked at them and saw their expression. He shrugged.
"I don't see anything wrong.."Deadpool said.
"How about this Wade, if you let the plot continue I'll let you punch another Seth Mcfarlane character in my spin off..."61394 offered.
"I knew there was a reason I liked you number boy..."The merc said, before turning back to the young super hero couple, who were even more convinced that he had more than a few screws loose.
Making his deal, Deadpool stopped the conversation and moved on with the plot.
"As I said, you guys want to see what Plasmius is up to, am I right?..."Dedpool said.
"Wait, how do you know about that?..."Danny demanded, getting suspicious.
"Doesn't matter, but don't freak out kid, I ain't your enemy...believe me, you don't want me to be...'Deadpool said in a weirdly light tone.
"How can I trust you?..." Danny asked.
"Because it's my job to know things others don't want me to know, like that you're Danny Fenton and you were 14 when your parents built a very strange machine that was designed to view a world unseen..."
Danny's eyes widened in shock before noticing something.
"Why... did you say that like you were rapping?..."He questioned.
"Danny..." Kara reminded him. "Vlad?"
"Oh right..." Danny said. "Sorry babe..."
"Aww... look at you two..." Deadpool cooed. "You're the cutest DC and Nicktoon pairing ever... not that it's a huge list but still..."
"Huh?" Supergirl questioned in a suspicious tone.
"Don't worry. I ain't gonna blab your secret...after all, you kids are wonderful..."Deadpool said randomly.
"Oh... uh, thanks." Danny said, wondering where he is going with this or if he can even trust the word of a maniac.
"I like you with Kim more though..." Deadpool muttered under his breath.
"Huh?..." Danny questioned.
"Nothing!..." Deadpool lied.
"Hey, let's get Wonder Woman involved!..."The merc with a mouth said.
"Uh... why?..." Danny asked.
"It'd rank up the readers!...'Deadpool exclaimed in excitement.
"Readers?..." Danny asked, not understanding any of this.
"She already told you... she's not calling you!..." Supergirl snapped.
"Oh... so is Big Boy Blue-"
"They only dated like a few times, they're not a couple anymore!..." She snapped again.
"Not in this timeline anyway..." Deadpool muttered.
They didn't hear that part though.
"Uh...Mr...Deadpool..."Danny started, feeling really weirded out.
"No formalities...just call me Deadpool or DP, DP..."The merc said.
"You want me to call you DP twice?..."Danny questioned.
"No...I am DP as in Deadpool...you're DP as in Danny Phantom, duh..."The merc said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"What exactly are you doing here anyway, Deadpool?...'Kara demanded, still mad over the amount of damage he caused when he snuck into the Watch tower to harass them just to get Wonder Woman's phone number...
"I saw you guys and I thought I could FINALLY say hello...I can't stay long though. I'm on my way to deal with ...F**** B**** who's gone too long without getting what they deserve..."Deadpool said, before groaning.
"Serious, even you FP? It's one thing for NeoMark to do that but you?...'Deadpool muttered.
"Sorry, but we have to mind the content rating here..."FP11 said.
No one could heard here but Deadpool, though.
"First my line is used and now I am getting bleeped in this story too...F**** typical..."Deadpool muttered
"Look, how about I buy you a dozen chimichangas and we're even, how's that?..'Flower Princess11 suggested.
Deadpool got happy again.
"I knew there was a reason why I like you more than NeoMark..."Deadpool said
"Cute... but I'm not letting in the same room as Wonder Woman. Not that I don't think she could handle you, I just don't want any property damage when she throws you through a wall..."Flower Princess11 said.
"Yeah... I love a woman who could technically put me through manslaughter if it weren't for my powers..." He looked back at the confused teens. "Anyway, I was hired to go get someone who is long overdue getting an a**** ****..."Deadpool said and Danny, due to still being young, was getting a little uncomfortable by the type of language he was using.
"Who?..." Supergirl asked.
If someone is out there that they'd hired this maniac after them, it's something she'd worried about. After all, Deadpool was a disaster all himself, to both bad guys...and anyone in the area who is unlucky enough to be near one of his fights.
"Sorry, confidentiality c**** and what not, but rest assured, the Merc with the Mouth is on the case!..." Deadpool said while making a heroic pose like Superman.
"Still, I got some time...so... you two crazy kids need some help?..."Deadpool offered and Danny was well passed unnerved by now.
"Uh... thanks for the offer, Mr. Pool..." Danny said. "But I think we can handle this ourselves...'Danny said gently.
"I see..." Deadpool said. That's when he looked at his digital watch.
"Well... I've wasted enough time in this chapter..."He said with a shrug.
"This what?..." Supergirl asked, only for Deadpool to turn around and walk away.
"See ya..." He waved.
Despite Supergirl giving him a glare with an arm cross, Danny reluctantly waved back.
"Bye... Deadpool..."Danny said, not sure what else to do.
"You and I are gonna be buddies kid! Just you wait!..." Deadpool said. "Now I'm off to a Betty White lookalike contest!..."He shouted before he left.
Once he was gone, Danny just kept that dumbfounded look on his face.
"Uh...I think I just met the one guy crazier than my parents...'Danny muttered.
Kara groaned with her face covered with both hands.
"That maniac..."She grumbled. "I swear he makes the Creeper look sane..." Kara muttered , briefly thinking of the yellow skinned, green haired member of the Justice League who ran around in a tiger print speedo, cowboy boots and a red feather boa as a 'cape'
"Seriously though, who was he?..."Danny asked.
"Deadpool is a mercenary mostly known for jobs in Marvelcom County. Last year, he took a job to assassinate a target the Justice League were apprehending..."Kara explained.
"So he's... not a villain?..."Danny questioned.
"No... he's just... AGGRAVATING!..."Kara said and Danny was taken back a bit by her tone.
"Sheesh, what did he do that made you like this?...'Danny asked.
After all, Kara is a very friendly and forgiving person, given her actions in regards to Sam.
He's annoying and nuts! He's even nicknamed the Merc with a mouth! Not to mention, he kept hitting on Wonder Woman, even after she punched him through a building..."Kara said,
"WHOA!..." Danny said.
"Don't worry, sparing you the gruesome details, he survived. He has a healing factor, probably one of the most powerful ever..." She explained.
"You could punch him through the head, not that I recommend it, and he'll live..."She continued.
"Oh..."Danny said, still weirded out.
He's not sure exactly what to think about this Deadpool guy. Kara said that he is a mercenary, not a villain. Still, he hoped that he won't be causing them trouble later on, they have enough of that as it is.
However, the realization Vlad wasn't here hit them.
"Now what?..."Kara asked.
They couldn't find Vlad or anything that suggests his next evil plot.
Danny tried to think of a way to at least get her to relax for a little while.
He had one idea.
"You know... we were invited to a party today. I know this is serious but... maybe it'll help you feel less stressed and afraid..."Danny suggested.
Kara thought about what he said.
"I'd... like that." She says.
Danny was concerned.
"You sure?..." He asks.
"Yeah... maybe for a while. I don't like being so full of worry..." Kara said as she got up. "Let's go, if at least for a while..."
Danny held her hand.
"Are you sure?"
Kara nodded.
"Yeah..." She smiled. "As long as you're there, I'm okay..."
Danny smiled, not knowing what he did to deserve this woman in his life
Taking her hand, they both took off.
Maybe spending time at Michelle's party is just what they need.
-To be continued-
Next time on TMDDF: Danny and Kara
Parties and Meetings
A/N: Special thanks to Neomark, BeConFuzzled Writer and 61394 for your help. You guys are the best :)
Deadpool: About time ya added me, FP! Now where are my chimichangas?
Flower Princess11: Nice to see you too, Wade. I just ordered them, so be patient.
Deadpool: Or I could go pay Clockwork a visit, borrow his time staff and speed things along.
Flower Princess11: I don't think it's a good idea. You know how he doesn't let ANYONE touch his staff... EVER!
Deadpool: But it's for chimichangas!
Flower Princess11:(Sighs)
So, what did you think about this chapter?
Deadpool: I am just glad that I finally appeared and met the love birds. I would add more cursing...the non-censored kind.
Flower Princess11: Sorry, can't change my content rating at this point.
Deadpool: D**** it.
Deadpool: So FP, what's going to happen next for Danny and Kara?
Flower Princess11: Well, I don't want to give too much away but I can say that things are no where near over yet. After all, they finally managed to get in contact with Superman.
Deadpool: And he is going to use his super strength to rip out Vlad's-
Flower Princess11: Mind the content rating, Wade! Keep the gore and the swearing to a minimum.
Deadpool: This is what I get for staring in a fic with mostly PG rated characters. Why did I let NeoMark talk me into this?
Flower Princess11: I thought it was because so you could have a chance to start in the same fic series as Wonder Woman and all those other girls who told you to take a hike.
Deadpool: Oh yeah, I remember...You sure you won't reconsider my proposition for the Many Dates of Wade Wilson, including Wonder Woman, Shego and-
Flower Princess11: As "interesting" as that sounds, I already told you that I can't. This isn't the only fic I am working on and I have classes.
Deadpool:(shrugs) Can't blame a guy for trying.
Flower Princess11: Anyway, I got to go answer my review from the readers. Any more questions?
Deadpool: Actually yes. I'm curious... why DO Danny and Jimmy sound alike in story?
Flower Princess11: Danny's voice actor David Kauffman also voiced Jimmy Olson in Superman: The Animated Series.
Deadpool: Ah, now I get it. Also, who am I going to paired up with in this fic? Meg? Harley or some new girl?
Flower Princess11: I said no spoilers, you'll just have to wait and see.
Deadpool nodded, seemingly understanding.
Deadpool: It makes sense I'm finally in one of your stories that's not done by any of those hacks!
Flower Princess11: Wade... don't say that.
Deadpool: It's true though! It's a blessing since I have the two highest grossing R-Rated comic book movies ever! Only downside? Ryan Reynolds... HUGE ***!
Flower Princess11: (annoyed) Wade...
Deadpool:... sorry...
Deadpool: Last question though... is Betty White in this story?
Flower Princess11: Why are you so obsessed with her?
Deadpool: (shrugs)... reasons...
Flower Princess11: To answer your question, no. She's a real person. I could find a character who was voiced by her, but that's it.
Deadpool: Darn...
A delivery truck soon appeared and Flower Princess11 sighed.
Flower Princess11: Finally, the chimichangas are here. Here you go, now I gotta go answer my reviews.
Deadpool: AWESOME! Thanks FP (Begins gorging on the chimichangas).
Flower Princess 11: (shaking head in amusement) You'll never change, Wade.
(Notices the readers)
Flower Princess 11: Anyway, here are my replies, just below.
REPLIES to my loyal and totally awesome reviewers:
DVMStarblade, DJ Rodriguez, Jebest4781l Major Simi, The Writer's Call and 61394: Thank you :)
Danifan300: So far, at least twice a week, whenever he "forgets" the school's new policy. He hasn't be suspended or expelled yet, but the teacher's aren't pussy footing around anymore.
Luiz4200: Since Danny didn't go to the game, Danny didn't see anyone else that he thought he could intimidate there. Even though he didn't get sent away by security, he still had to tell Michelle that he didn't get the tickets and when he suggested sneaking in, she was so disgusted with him that she dumped him then and there. Served him right, each and every time.
Also good comparison, but you also forgot about insanity and ruthlessness...Dash just pales in comparison to Luthor.
Batguy01: We shall see...we shall see...just stay tuned.
Invader Johnny: Here here...
Deadpool: DP, just...just try not to go TOO crazy this time, Deadpool. Neomark is still pretty upset about the whole thing. Also, give my regards to Makoto and Starfire when you see them.
ChrisZilla18: :)
ScarecrowReaper: Glad to see that you're enjoying it :)
Leonardo: We'll see what happens.
NiteOwl18: How's this?
:) I hope you enjoyed this! Remember to read and review :)
