Ghost King Danny: Book 1
A Danny Phantom Overlord Fanfiction
Author's Note: Hey guys! Here's chapter 9 for you guys to enjoy! Forgive me for the battle scene, as I have never written one before! I just wanted to get this chapter out before college starts up again. (I know it's a week away, but still need to get ready). I'll try to update during off days, mainly Wednesdays, when I only have one class. Anyways, enjoy the chapter!
Last Time
The three then ran into their respective bathrooms and proceeded to transform. They then phased through the floor and met each other outside the school. Suddenly without warning, a rocket flew straight at the ghostly trio, more specifically Danny. Danny flew as fast as he could away from the rocket, but it seemed to be locked onto him. He fired an ectoblast at the rocket, hoping it would destroy it, to no avail. A gravelly voice, frustrated by the sound of it, shouted, "Will you hold still so I can shoot you!" The three turned to face Skulker, the self-proclaimed 'Ghost Zone's greatest hunter' with a protruding frown upon his face.
Now
Skulker fired multiple rockets at Danny's floating form while Danny was furiously dodging them. Skulker thought that he finally was going to get the halfa's pelt today and kept firing rockets as a very creepy and disturbing smile flashed on his face. Danny started dodging the rockets with even more speed than even he thought possible. A fleeting thought passed Danny's mind. 'Flight or fight hormone plus ghost powers equals extreme speed. Noted.'
Suddenly, Skulker's attack was stopped short, as a black mist surrounded him. He tried struggling to release himself from the hold, but found that he couldn't move anything beyond his head. Skulker looked around frantically, trying to determine who was doing this, when he saw two ghosts he hadn't noticed were floating there before. A male and female that looked to be in their teens were floating there, the male dressed in a forest green jacket and dark brown cargo pants, both littered with pockets, and the female dressed in purple jeans and black clothing. Danny, realizing his friends were about to do something awesome, slowed to a stop and resorted to just floating in the air. Skulker, on the other hand, was utterly confused at the two arrivals.
"Who are you and why have you interfered with my hunt?" Skulker asked, his gravelly voice riddled with surprise. However, his question was not answered in words, but in peals of laughter. The three half ghosts, as Skulker was about to learn shortly, were laughing at him. Skulker, seeing as he couldn't move anything but his head, just floated there with a deadpanned look on his face. When the trio finally stopped laughing at him, the male spoke, his now baritone voice piercing the air.
"You seriously don't remember us?" he asked. Skulker, still confused as to who these new ghosts were, shook his head no. Unfortunately for Skulker, it caused the three to begin their laughing fit again. When their laughing fit subsided once more, the female spoke, the echo her ghost powers added making her voice sound like the voices of one thousand angels, at least, that's what Danny thought it sounded like.
"Well maybe this can jog your memory!" She looked over towards the male as what Skulker could only describe as a PDA materialized in his hands. It was a black and white PDA with yellow accents around it. Skulker's eyes widened slightly as the male typed away silently, not saying a word. Suddenly, a crackle of energy surrounded the male, causing him to disappear. A second later, the energy appeared directly in front of him, as the male appeared before him. He threw his PDA into the air as a devilish smile appeared on his face. Then the PDA, thanks to gravity, started falling.
A flurry of lighting quick punches flew towards the ghost. Unprepared for this attack, the punches blasted off pieces of Skulker's armor, which, also thanks to gravity, fell to the ground until the head was the only thing left. He then looked up, stretched his hand out, and his PDA fell gracefully into his hand. He turned around to face his friends, only to find them with their mouths open in astonishment. He flew up to his friends and snapped his fingers in their faces with Skulker's disembodied head screaming in rage. Danny and Sam snapped out of their stupor. Danny then asked a question they all knew was on their minds.
"How in the WORLD did you do THAT!? That was awesome dude!"
Tucker shrugged, in disbelief to his friends. He honestly had no idea how he did that. To him, it felt natural, and he told his friends as much. Sam then suggested that they train their powers more, to see what else they could do with them. The three wholeheartedly agreed with this idea, and were about to fly back inside to the school, when a scream brought them back to the fact that Skulker's head was still in Tucker's hands. Danny then conveniently pulled out the Fenton Thermos and sucked Skulker and his armor into the thermos. As soon as Skulker's last screams were unable to be heard, the trio heard the lunch bell ring. Danny sighed. Another missed class. Maybe they could avoid Mr. Lancer by sneaking pass him, hopefully avoiding another detention? Well, it was worth a shot. He relayed this idea to his friends, who reluctantly agreed. The three then flew invisibly into their respective bathrooms, and after transforming into their human forms, walked out of the bathrooms. The three were walking quickly towards their next class, which was science, hoping to avoid Mr. Lancer. Unfortunately for them, Danny's 'relationship' with Murphy's Law extended to his friends, and Mr. Lancer was standing in front of the lab doors. It seemed as though he was waiting for something. Or someone. Danny and his friends increasingly grew more nervous as they neared the room. The trio were almost passed the big bellied teacher-slash-vice principal, when a stern cough stopped the trio in their tracks. They turned around to face the man who looked anything but happy with the three students.
"Now that I have your attention, will you mind telling me why you three decided to skip my class today?" Lancer asked his three students with an incensed tone.
The three friends stood there for a minute, trying to figure out what to say to the teacher. Finally, Danny, remembering that Dash wailed on him normally during this time, came up with the semi-lie that surprised even Sam and Tucker.
"I was hiding from Dash as he was threatening to wail on me during lunch, however, Sam and Tucker heard this and decided to hide me, as well as themselves, because Dash knew that if he let them escape, that they would tell the principal about his bullying, and it would cause him to get expelled."
Lancer was quite shocked at this revelation, as he had always heard from Mr. Baxter that he never bullied anyone. He then asked the question that would cause him to fall for the semi-lie, hook, line, and sinker.
"He's done this before?"
"Yes, he even said he was going to beat me up today for failing his math quiz. If you hurry you can catch him before something like this happens again. Also, Mr. Lancer, would you mind keeping this conversation between us three?" Danny said with a wide smile on his face while looking down at the ground.
Mr. Lancer, now knowing the truth about the high school's star quarterback, nodded, a look of determination on his face as he walked through the lab doors.
Danny looked up to find no Lancer in front of him, and a "MR. BAXTER!" hit his ears. Danny laughed silently so only his friends could hear. Danny's laughter only intensified when he silently poked his head through the door and saw Dash about to thrust another child into the emergency shower.
The rest of the trio's day went significantly better, as did many countless others lives, you know, besides Danny being crowned the new Ghost King and all, but that was just between the three of them.
Finally, the trio made it to Danny's room after classes were over, and almost as soon as they entered, a portal opened up in the middle of it. The three, looking at each other with knowing looks, flew into the portal.
A second later Jack and Maddie burst into their son's room, Maddie with an ectomometer, only to find no one in sight.
"Jack, I could've sworn I saw a spike in ecto-energy levels, and for some reason, it's coming from Danny's room."
"The question, Mads, is why it is in his room. I know for a fact that Danny wouldn't go near a ghost, much less try to fight one, although if he is, I would congratulate him." Maddie was surprised. "Jack? Why would Danny be fighting ghosts? Doesn't he usually run away from them?"
Jack suddenly looked up at his wife in realization. "I guess you're right, honey. I guess I was just thinking."
"About what?" Maddie asked.
Jack sighed. "I was thinking that, if it wasn't for my invention, maybe Danny wouldn't be so distant with us. We've both seen how distant he is now, but it all started because he got shocked by the portal. My portal."
Maddie walked up to Jack and promptly slapped him across the face. Jack, stunned, didn't say a word. Maddie spoke.
"You listen here, Jack Bartholomew Fenton. It is not your fault. Now, I admit that sometimes we let our work get in the way sometimes, but don't you dare begin blaming yourself for Danny's problem when it is obviously both our faults that Danny is acting this way. Our only hope now is to try and be a somewhat normal family, we just have to tear ourselves away from work, and pay more attention to our kids.
Jack seemed to be feeling considerably better after his wife's comforting words reached his ears. Suddenly, a thought occurred to him.
"Where's Danny and his friends? Didn't they come up here a second ago?"
Maddie's eyes widened as the realization spread across her face.
"You're right, Jack! What if they all got trapped by ghosts! We should hurry before the ghosts do something terrible to them! Let's go!" Maddie and Jack then ran out the door, the only other noise in the house being Jack rummaging through the fridge looking for the 'save kids from ghosts hunting' fudge.
