In the closed off mansion that once belonged to Vlad Master's when he was mayor of Amity Park, Venelope sat down in the middle of Vlad's old underground lab, looking through the book she had stolen from the museum. She was trying to find a weapon, anything that could help her achieve her ultimate goal; revenge against Team Phantom. Especially Danny and Dayla, since it was them who had defeated her father and sent him to prison for life.
"There must be something in here that can be powerful enough." Venelope said as she continued to look through the pages.
She continued to look through the book for almost an hour, but so far found nothing. She was just almost about ready to give up when she suddenly stopped on a page.
"This could be interesting." Venelope said and began to read the page.
After thoroughly reading the page, her frown had turned to a smile. She ripped the page out of the book and folded it, placing it inside her small bag.
"The perfect object, to finally get what I want." Venelope said, still smiling. "But first thing's first, I need to pick up something."
She turned to Vlad's old version of the Spectre Speeder he made and climbed inside. She started it up and opened an old tunnel in the lab. She activated the cloaking device as she flew through the tunnel, leading into the wood just behind the mansion.
She began to drive the vehicle into the sky, wherever she was going, it was somewhere outside of Amity Park.
The entire backyard was filled with the Manson's, the Foley's, the Knight's, the Tasman's, the Grey's, the Fenton's, Jimmy and Sonya, all having a good time and chatting amongst themselves.
Two new faces then came along to the backyard. A man the same age as Kimberly with red hair, brown eyes and wearing a black shirt with a brown jacket and blue jeans and a girl the same age as Andrew, Dayla, Danny, Valerie, Tucker, Tabitha and Sam, with red short hair like her father and brown eyes, wearing a blue and black checkered dress top with black jeans that folded at the bottom and black boots.
Kimberly smiled and walked up to the man and gave him a hug and asked, "How are you?"
"I'm good. Thank you for inviting me and my daughter." The man said with a smile, after kissing her hand.
Kimberly blushed and asked, "So, are you ready to meet my son and some of my other family?"
The man nodded and gestured for Andrew, Tabitha, and Josephine to come over. They all came over, Andrew bringing Dayla with him.
Kimberly then introduced the man and the girl to them, "Andrew, Tabitha, Josephine, Dayla, this is Mason Taylor, the one I've been dating and his daughter Serenity."
Andrew held out his hand for Mason to shake and said, "It's very nice to meet you."
Mason shook Andrew's hand and said with a smile, "It's nice to meet you all too. Kimberly has told me so much about you Andrew and your girlfriend. Is this her?"
"Yes. This is Dayla my girlfriend." Andrew answered. He then turned to Serenity and said, "It's nice to meet you too Serenity."
"It's nice to meet you both." Tabitha said, smiling.
"You too guys. You're mum sent my dad a photo of what you looked like and I can definitely say, Dayla's a very lucky girl to have you as a boyfriend." Serenity said with a smile.
Everyone continued to eat, drink and socialise with each other. All of them talking about college classes, extra-curricular activities they've been taking and ghost fights they've had.
"So guys, any ghosts show up at college?" Jazz asked.
"Well, the occasional ecto-puss and ghost animal or two, but nothing major." Danny answered.
"Same for us." Valerie answered.
"We heard about you guy's encounter with Venelope last night at the museum." Tucker said, talking to Dani, Jimmy, Sonya and Dale. "What did she take?"
"A book Vlad previously owned. Legendary Artefacts of the Ghost Zone." Dale answered. "We almost had her captured, but she used a duplicate at the last minute and slipped away."
"What could Venelope find in an old book Vlad owned?" Sam asked, confused but curious at the same time.
"You don't remember Sam? That book has information about the most powerful objects in both worlds. Including the Reality Gauntlet and the Infi-Map." Dani answered.
"Oh yeah. I forgot that's how Vlad discovered the Infi-Map." Sam said, remembering after Vlad disappeared into outer space, the very same book was donated to the museum.
"Well, whatever she's up to, we'll stop her together." Andrew said.
"Yeah. No matter what she throws at us, we'll always find a way to bring her plans down." Jimmy said.
Dani and Dale smiled, feeling lucky to have such amazing friends and family as they hugged their partners.
The BBQ continued as desert was being served out. Danny asked Jack, "So dad, how's the eye going?"
"Oh you know son. Sure, it gets a bit itchy from time to time and it feels weird having only one eye, but I'm used to it." Jack answered, scratching at his eye patch for a moment.
He then smiled romantically at his wife, held her close and said, "Besides, women get the hots for a man with one eye."
Maddie giggled, while Sam and Danny blushed a little in embarrassment and then walk away. Dayla and Andrew sat down alone together. Dayla had noticed Andrew hadn't taken his eyes off Mason for a few minutes.
"Andrew, is everything okay?" Dayla asked, placing her hand on top of his.
Pulled out of his thoughts, Andrew smiled a little at Dayla and answered, "Yeah. Everything's okay. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy that my mum has finally found someone. It's just…..I don't know. A little bit weird to see her with anyone besides my father."
Dayla nodded and then said, "I get that it's weird. It'll just take some getting used. Just give it time and eventually, the weirdness will wear off."
Andrew smiled a bit brighter and gave Dayla a kiss, which she returned. After pulling apart he said, "You always knew the right thing to say."
"And I always will." Dayla said, still smiling.
SAN QUIETEN PRISON – San Francisco, 3:30 AM
In the prison cell of Vlad Masters, he was fast asleep on his bed when he suddenly heard the sound of someone being punched. He sat up from his bed and looked to see a guard punching the lights out of the last two remaining guards.
Confused as to why a guard would harm his own co-workers, he stood up and walked over to the cell and watched as Venelope came out of the man and then punched him in the face, causing him to fall unconscious.
Vlad looked at the girl in confusion and asked, "Who are you?"
Venelope smirked and answered, "I am known as Vladia Plasmius."
She then changed into her human form and finished, "But my real name is Venelope Hawkeye."
"You're a halfa! B….but how? And who are you that you take on my name?" Vlad asked, completely shocked to see this young woman of 19, a halfa.
"Do you remember a woman named Maria Hawkeye?" She asked.
"Yes I do. I remember dating a woman named Maria, but what does that have to do with it?" Vlad answered with a question.
"She never got the chance to tell you….she was pregnant when you two broke up with your child." Venelope answered. "Your daughter."
Vlad's eyes widened as soon as she said those words. He then asked still in shock, "Are you saying….you're…..you're….."
Venelope nodded and answered, "I'm your daughter and I've come to break you out so we can get our revenge on those infernal Phantom Twins and their family."
"How do you propose we do that?" Vlad asked.
She held up the page she torn out and handed it to him. He read it over and smirked.
"This is my chance. My one way ticket to freedom! And to finally destroy Danny and Dayla Phantom forever!" Vlad thought in his hand, his smirk changing to a grin.
"So, are you in father?" Venelope asked.
Vlad nodded and then Venelope changed into her ghost form, grabbed Vlad by his hand and phased him out of the cell.
He then smiled and said as he opened his arms out, "Come to daddy, my daughter."
Venelope smiled and hugged her father, feeling something she hadn't felt in such a long time. The love of a parent.
"Or should I say, the perfect pawn!" Vlad said in his hand, hiding his grin discreetly.
