Chapter 7: She's Back
Woo hoo.
Got this chapter done in a couple of days, way to go me.
It had been a couple of days since the Grand Re-Opening Party of Mystery Shack and Danny was having another date with Wendy, this time at the movie theater in Amity Park. So far no ghost attack or the like had interrupted their date so far.
"Man Danny, my first date with you and me going to the movies." Wendy excitedly said, "Thank you for being awesome dude."
"Your welcome my beautiful angel." Danny responded sweetly.
Wendy blushed and said, "So what are we seeing?"
"The Wild Wild West." Danny answered.
"You mean that weird steampunk western flop." Wendy said in a concerned voice.
"No, not that bomb." Danny explained, "It's the second docudrama attempt on the real life adventures of James West and Artemus Gordon during the 1870s, plus I read online that the film we're going to see got good reviews."
"If you say so." Wendy said, deciding to trust her boyfriend.
As the couple went inside the theater, Danny decided to silence his phone. After all its not like something important was gonna happen during his time seeing the movie.
Tucker was bored.
Danny was on a date with Wendy and Velma was once again solving another mystery with her friends. Oh well, maybe he could do some upgrades on his PDA. (Which WILL make a comeback, thank you very much!)
He was walking back from the Fenton's house, where Mrs. Fenton had told him that her son was unavailable for the day. He then ran into someone who he hadn't seen in a while.
"Sam!" Tucker said in shocked and surprise to the return of his oldest female goth friend, Sam Manson.
"Hey Tucker." Sam said she hugged him rather strongly, "I missed you and Danny after a having to spend a month-long vacation on the S.S. Snob Fest."
"Good to know Sam." Tucker said, "But how come you didn't call me and Danny that you were returning."
"I wanted to make it a surprise for my two best friends." Sam explained, "Besides I really want to forget about my stupid vacation anyway by spending my time with you two."
Tucker smiled as she said that. But how to explain the uhh… changes to Danny's love life since Sam has a not so secret crush on Danny, though both are clueless about it.
"So come on then. Let's go." Sam said, "I want to see Danny really bad."
"I checked. He's not home." Tucker said quickly.
"Come on then, he's probably fighting some ghost." Sam said.
Tucker just sighed. Sam was not gonna take the news well.
Meanwhile, Danny and Wendy were walking out of the movie, talking about how great the movie was as well as wondering what to do next.
"Man that movie was great." Wendy said, "Especially where the villain is revealed to be a steampunk cyborg."
"Yeah, glad you liked it." Danny said.
"Do you think maybe we be like those two Secret Service agents? Who solve crime in the Old West with various of cool gadgets in an awesome train." Wendy said.
"Maybe so Wendy. Danny Fenton and Wendy Corduroy. Cowboy Agents." Danny said.
The couple then laughed.
While they were talking Danny noticed his phone was vibrating. He decided to ignore it. After all how important can this call be. No, today it's just him and Wendy.
Oh boy.
"Why isn't he answering." Sam said in a frustrated tone.
Man, Tucker thought, Danny is really committed to spending time with Wendy today.
"He must be fighting a ghost." Sam said, "Come on Tucker, Danny needs our help."
Tucker simply groaned. Sam will not take the news relating to Danny's love life well at all. As long as they stayed away from the area of the movie theater things will be fine for him. Maybe a walk in the park will calm Sam down.
Big mistake.
As soon as the two friends went into the local park they ran into our star couple, who were taking a walk in the park as well as laughing.
"Man Danny, that was pretty funny and awesome story." Wendy said, while still laughing at the story of Danny's first meeting with Skulker, edited a little because they were in public.
"Danny." Sam said in slight shock of seeing the guy she has a subconscious crush on with another girl.
"Oh, hey Sam. Glad to see that you're back early." Danny said excitedly as he hugged his other best friend.
"Uhh, Danny. Who is that?" Sam asked a little aggressively.
Danny, being oblivious to Sam's tone, said, "Oh, this is Wendy Corduroy. My girlfriend. Wendy this is my other best friend, Sam Manson."
Both girls shook the others hand, with Sam trying her best to keep a positive face, which she barely succeeded in doing, especially after the words 'my girlfriend'.
Wendy noticed though and thought, this woman better behave. Danny asked me for a second date on the service and you better not ruin our relationship, especially for Danny's sake if you care about him that much. She continued to smile, doing a much better job than Sam was.
As the two girls finished having their masked false-friendly hello, Wendy then got a call.
"It's Stan, I gotta take this." Wendy explained.
As Wendy walked away, Sam asked, "Danny, who is this girl?"
"I told you, Wendy. My girlfriend I met through the dating service." Danny said, "Sorry I can't spend the day with you and Tuck, I promised to spend the day with Wendy. But I promise to spend tomorrow with you guys."
"Dating service?", Sam asked, with a little twitch of anger.
"Yeah. Speaking of which, Tucker I can't thank you enough for convincing me to sign on to the service." Danny said.
Tucker nervously said, "Well, uhh… I didn't do that much."
"Nonsense Tuck, if it weren't for your insistence for me to join the service with you, I would have never have found Wendy." Danny said, "Thank you very much. I owe you big time."
Sam then began angrily began to glare at Tucker. Danny remained blissfully unaware.
Wendy then returned to the group after she finished her call with Stan.
"Sorry guys, my boss called me." Wendy explained.
"What did Stan say?" Danny asked.
"Just to see if I was available for some thing he has planned for tomorrow." Wendy explained.
Then Danny's ghost sense went off.
It was when the Winged Hussars arrived or rather the ghosts of them that is. What with their spectral green transparent skin, ghastly red eyes, and their paranormal winged armor as well equally ghostly horses.
The haunted calvary then began to terrorize the park, with the various of people screaming and running away from spectral horsemen. Their shock tactics installing fear in the citizens of Amity Park, except for a group of four friends.
"Guys cover me, I'm going ghost!" Danny exclaimed he hid behind his friends.
"Danny, what about her?" Sam asked referring to Wendy.
"That's okay I know." Wendy said.
"What!" Sam yelled.
Danny then went ghost and flew towards the winged hussars.
"Hey Fright Knight knockoffs." Danny yelled as the hussars looked at him, "Block this."
Danny then fired a ghostly blast at the haunted calvary, who simply charged at the ghostly superhero. Hoping that their shock tactics will work on Danny. Unfortunately for them, Danny Phantom was not the Ottoman Army. So he easily took care of the ghostly cavalry by firing more ghost rays and sucked them into the Fenton Thermos.
While that fight was going on, Sam was shocked that this seemingly random girl knew about Danny's secret identity as Phantom.
"You know!" Sam yelled.
"Yeah dude." Wendy said, "He was reluctant to reveal his secret at first. But when two of my friends were being threatened by a giant robot he chose to reveal his secret to me when he saw he had no other choice but to save them."
"So he just revealed to you?" Sam asked.
"Relax dude, it was just me that he revealed his secret to." Wendy explained.
As Danny was battling the Winged Hussars, both girls were in deep thought.
Sam thought, she must have Danny under some sort of control. With thoughts of jealousy in her subconscious.
Wendy thought, if this girl really has a crush on Danny, then she better care about his happiness or otherwise she'll be the one that will end up being hurt in the end.
The battle was over as quickly as it began and the crowd cheered.
Danny returned and hid behind a tree to return to his human form. He then went to his friends and girlfriend.
"Sorry for that interruption guys." Danny said.
"That's alright Danny." Wendy said.
"Anyway, Sam, Tucker. I promise to spend tomorrow with guys." Danny said.
He then walked away with his girlfriend.
Sam gridded her teeth in anger, while Tucker tired to take the chance to run way before Sam asked any awkward questions. But unfortunately, Sam caught him before he could make a run for it.
"What were they talking about? What dating service?!" Sam said aggressively.
"Well you see… umm… it's like this…" Tucker stuttered trying to find the right words, "Well… umm… Danny and I were bored and you were gone, and we needed something to do."
Tucker then laughed awkwardly, but Sam was not amused at all.
On the other side of the park, Danny and Wendy were about to leave the park when suddenly they heard a high pitch scream.
"What was that?" Wendy said, "A ghost."
"No, my ghost sense isn't picking anything up." Danny said, "It's probably nothing. So where to next."
"I really want a see that mall again." Wendy said, "It's like three times the size of the mall in Gravity Falls. Hopefully we won't run into those four jerks we ran into the first time I was there."
So the couple continued on with their date. Blissfully unaware of two figures following them.
So yeah, as told in most Many Dates stories, Sam does not take the news of Danny having a girlfriend well.
Well that's to be expected from her.
Ahhhh, Deadpool! Wait are you the Deadpool from Danny and Kara or this story.
This story.
Whew. Okay then, I had a nasty encounter with that other Deadpool. That red menace.
So any way why are you here?
Well to see if you wanted me to take care of Sam. After all the other me did that in Danny and Phantasma. Or maybe I make Sam and that geeky friend of hers go from one humiliating situation after another like in Danny Chooses Alex.
No Wade, got my own plans for them. Besides, I think Sam and Tucker deserve to have a happy ending with a special someone. Besides they've been supporting Danny's superhero activities since day one. Plus I'm gonna try my best not to sideline them, like in Danny and Kim.
So what are you going to do them? Give them powers like Sam got in Danny and Kitty.
Not that. Just them give them some character development (especially Sam).
Whatever, now excuse me I'm gonna arrest the jerks from Family Guy. Spanking Cartman does get boring after a while.
Fine, don't really care much about that show anymore.
With my new sidekick, Butters Stotch.
Wait, Butters is your sidekick now?
Yeah. After seeing how awful his family treated him. So I had them all arrested and adopted the sweet kid.
Well alright then, as long you don't traumatize him or give him drugs I'm cool with that.
Also I'd like to thank FlowerPrincess11 and 61394 for overviewing this chapter. You rock guys.
Anyway be happy, be kind, and be safe my fans (or is it phans).
Live long and prosper guys.
Edit: Later on the day that I posted this chapter, I found out that a nanny who raised me when I was young has died due to COVID-19.
I won't reveal her name due to privacy reasons. What I will say is that my fondest memories of her were of watching Nicktoons together, Spongebob Squarepants, Jimmy Neutron, and of course Danny Phantom.
So I decided to dedicate this chapter and the next to her.
May she rest in peace.
