Danny Fenton: A Chaotic Adventure
By: DJ Rodriguez
(Author's Notes: Hey everyone! I hope you are doing well, and I want to thank those of you who did read and review my story here.
Before I say or do anything else, I wish to give praise and honor to the Lord. Thank you God for being with me and my family. It has been a rough and tough year for us since we have lost two precious family members; one in 2020 which was my Dad, and another this year in September which was my Tia Michelle Motley. The whole world has changed Jesus, and not for the better. We need you now more than ever, in every way/shape/form.
I will continue to look to you Jesus for guidance, direction, strength, wisdom, courage, conviction, confidence, steadfastness, endurance and patience. I ask God that you please protect and guide my family, my friends and all those around the world Lord that need you so badly.
I continue to pray and hope to see a good change come back into the world. Where any and all things related to COVID-19 is gone for good, that it and all of its variants are exterminated from the equation of life. And that those responsible for its creation and spread are delivered to true justice.
I also hope and pray to see things get back to pre-COVID status all over. No more masks needed/recommended/required anywhere, no more social distancing of any kind, no more excessive sanitation, no more isolation, no more plastic/Plexiglas walls barriers in certain places, no more contactless services/actions, no more virtual/online substitutions…
And more over, no more fear/hesitation/doubt/anxiety/paranoia/laziness/greed! Where people recognize and realize the many subtle, small but significant differences in everything once more. The kind we took for granted or lightly before this nightmare happened, and to never do so again.
In this chapter, Danny sees West City and also explores much of Bulma's hometown. Also, Angelica Pickles, Jen Masterson, Emma Mackenzie and Bulma help the young Fenton lad in picking out suitable clothing for all occasions! This means he will wear many formal, semi-formal, semi-casual and casual wear. And this includes shoes, accessories for men and more. Heh, he will experience first-hand a shopping experience that only the most dedicated/hardcore shopper does!
Also, Danny will ask some questions regarding security with Vicky Eileen, Tyler Jeptha and Satoshi Takehiko concerning the security for the Checking and Savings accounts. Heh, special shout-out to Author pinkstoryteller who actually got into more depth and such about security features and such. So thank you very much my friend!
And finally this… Danny will encounter a certain female fighter from the World Martial Arts Tournament, and come to her rescue! This will be his first battle against the natives of the DB world!
I forgot to mention this, since it seemed that no one saw the subtle Easter Eggs that I put in Chapter 19, where it showed on what happened at the Autocon Mall. I put the names of certain establishments in that are linked to certain Authors and such who have reviewed my work here. Like so:
Dress Seeker Club- Author Data Seeker with some subtle word differences there.
Saurus Hardware & Tools Station- Author SaurusRock625.
Narucorm Novels- Author Kearitona Sjachraelgil.
In this chapter, I have put in some stores that also pay tribute to certain reviewers for my story. They are Jose Ramiro's Radical Waves, named after Author acosta perez jose Ramiro & Ronalds Rage, named after Author Ronaldm40196867! And finally A-Beast 17 named after Author AustralianBeast17. And finally, an OC character that is named after AustralianBeast17's friend whom now I consider a friend as well, Nedrios! Hope they like this!
I will really try for character and plot development, as well as make sure that none of my characters go Mary Sue or Gary Stu. That each character experiences growth with positive and negative aspects that they will encounter. And also in the process, make sure that each girl at least has a decent chance with Danny so that in the end, he may choose them over the others.
On a final note, it is this. To see the uniforms of Danny and the girls that will be training under Master Roshi, and also the new insignia that will replace the Red Ribbon Army insignia, check out the artwork of my friend Dreams Come True 996. Her DeviantArt account is MarieAngel04, and it is there you can find the pictures. Also, she is the one that made the clothes for Danny's wardrobe! She is brilliant when it comes to stuff like fashion!
I cannot please everyone, nor do I ever want to. In the words of my pastor Rick Godwin from my church Summit Christian Center at San Antonio, it is this- Those who seek to please everyone lose only themselves, who they are and displease their own beings. Okay, not an exact quote since my memory is not the best but you get the idea I hope.
I am making stories for people to enjoy them, not to please every single being. I have my own ideas, standards, thoughts, theories and so on. If people do not like my stories, it is okay. I cannot please all, and will not lower or compromise myself to please all either. Goes the same in real life too. I may make enemies, but that is actually good.
In the words of Winston Churchill- You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.
I look towards the small, subtle but significant things and differences that God has taught me to be the real difference between right and wrong, real and artificial and so on.
There will be NO slash, femme-slash or trans characters/pairings/actions here, or in any of my works. I am SERIOUS about this here.
Any OC names that appear on here, I got from the website known as 20000-NAMES, which show various boy and girl names from different nations and ethnicities. Each name has a meaning, if you wish to see what it. Also, the Destroian Empire and the Destroian OC's belong to LORD DESTYRUK. Certain family members of theirs are from my fourth Disney/Toho novel Monsters and Magic Special: Sofia's Imagination.
When Danny and the ladies arrive, it is at the very early stages of the Piccolo Jr. Saga, at the exact moment when Shen Long was revived and granted the wish of bringing those that were killed by Demon King Piccolo and his minions back to life. And with a three-year gap before the next tournament, it would give Danny and his date's ample time to explore the new reality/world they are in & to collect the Dragon Balls.
Danny Phantom is a cartoon series that was created by Butch Hartman, developed by Steve Marmel. The series aired on April 2004, the network that released it was Nickelodeon. The production companies were Billionford Inc. and Nickelodeon Animation Studios, with the distributors being Viacom International Inc. and Nelvana. Look for my Danny Phantom series and specials when getting the chance, if you please. This takes place after the episode De-Stabilized, but before Phantom Planet. And also, said last episode will NOT be featured here.
DragonBall is a manga/anime series that was written by Akira Toriyama, published by Shueisha Inc. with North America published by Viz Media. The manga was created in December 1984, ending in June 1995 with forty-two volumes. The anime was directed by Minoru Okazaki & Daisuke Nisho, produced by Tokizō Tsuchiya/Kenji Shimizu/Jun'ichi Ishikawa. Studio was Toei Animation, licensed by Funimation Entertainment for North America. Original network that broadcasted it was Fuji TV, with multiple English networks such as Cartoon Network Toonami and Funimation Channel. It ran from February 1986 to April 1989.
I was going to use lyrics for the Intro and Outro, but Flower princess11 did not approve so I removed them. She requested it, so I complied. Also, the pictures I am using to see the compound is from the Dragonball Fandom website. And also, I am asking for anyone who is creative with their hands in making pictures and such to make pictures that depict my crossover here.
If you wish, use your imagination and put in any kind of song/music intro from any anime series with the Intro and Outro here. And also, so no one is confused, this is DragonBall & not DragonBall Z. And also, not going to follow the Dragonball Super anime or manga series in any way.
Different intro and outro will appear in the next book of the series.
Now, on with the story!)
{{Intro}}
{The screen shows the starry atmosphere of space, with the planet Jupiter shown in the upper right corner of the screen. It looks peaceful for the moment… than a white-blue comet of sort streaked past it and towards the screen before seemingly going through it! It was soon followed by multiple other white-blue comets!
The screen changed to show the multiple glowing celestial objects streaking past the Asteroid Belt, Mars and the Moon. Music picked up as the planet Earth came into view in all her glory, the comets streaking towards it as they entered the atmosphere! The image of the DP logo appeared above the planet, and down below appeared words in white letters against the inky black space underneath Earth. The logo changed to show the capital D and P letters splitting apart slightly to show the name DANNY PHANTOM, and below the planet were the white words AND THE CHAOTIC ADVENTURE.
The scene goes from space to the Earth, in a clear field where the blue-white comets land. They do not smash into the ground, but rather hover over the ground and shortly pop like bubbles. Emerging first for all to see is Danny Fenton, who looks around confused until he turns behind him to see the other comets that soon burst forth.
The camera goes to showcase intensely but briefly the women that also traveled with Danny:
Kimberly Ann Possible, Alexandra Casoy, Gwen Tennyson, Emma Mackenzie, Diana Lombard, Sabrina Spellman, Kara Kent, Jenny Wakeman, Cree Lincoln, Violet Parr, Jen Masterson, the floating ghoul Phantasma, Vicky Aidith, Wendy Corduroy, Debbie Thornberry, April O'Neal, gothic girl Gwen Honorine, Angelica Pickles, Kitty Pryde, Makoto Kino a.k.a. Lita for English name, Katie Kaboom, Penny Proud, Ginger Foutley, Spectra Vondergeist, Winx Club fairy Musa, Felicia Hardy, Daria Morgendorffer, Barbara Gordon, Cleo Sertori and Starfire.
After the last girl's face is shown, the camera shows to see Danny confused as he looks to them. A bright flash occurs, and he looks upward. The camera soon shows an aerial shot of him directly in the middle of it, the girls coming to his position and getting close to said teen as they all look upward with him towards the camera.
The camera than shows the sky where white comet was streak through the air, zooming in to show it was the Four-Star Dragonball! It stays with it until said orb disappears over the horizon. The camera than showcases Danny and the others looking up at where the ball went, than a scroll appearing in front of him. He takes it and unfurls it to show the message that was given to him and the ladies. The camera shows the message as it pans down until it showcases these words that shine with golden light- ONLY THE WISH FROM THE ETERNAL DRAGON SHEN LONG WILL SEND BACK
The scene than shows Danny Fenton leading the group, Kim and Musa by his side with Starfire and Gwen Tennyson behind him on the left & right respectively. The others follow in an arrowhead-like formation. They soon stop, seeing a cliff and the camera showing that the entourage was now gazing at the mega metropolis known as West City!
The camera than leaves the group, going to showcase the front entrance of the domed building that has the words Capsule Corp. etched in it. And zooms in to show that standing in front of said entrance/exit way was Bulma Briefs with Oolong the shape-shifting pig on her left, Puar the shape-shifting flying cat on her right. Both smile and wave to the audience.
The scene does some brief but interesting cut-scenes that show Danny and the other women talking to them inside the building around a table, Bulma seeing the message, followed by her talking to them as she is most likely explaining the Dragon Balls & who Shen Long is & the clip ends with her giving Danny the famous Dragon Radar as she points out how to use it.
The camera shows Danny given a large trunk which contains Dyno Capsules of various sizes, color and numbers, courtesy of Bulma who says it's on the house. She also gives a blue capsule that is marked with a capital black B, which are the blueprints for said item that she gives to Barbara Gordon. The scene than shows the group leaving the area…
And the camera shows clips of the group running away from a large unusual-looking, jungle-green T-Rex & a silver Western-European dragon! The scene shows the girls like Cree, Vicky, Debbie, Gwen Honorine, Angelica and Penny running from them! It than shows a clip of Danny being carried by Jenny in the air along with Musa, Spectra and Phantasma looking at a nest that has three red baby Pteranodons in it… and Kitty popping out from underneath it with an egg that soon hatches to showcase another baby red Pteranodon.
The scene changes to showcase a clear field, the sky darkening with an immense column of golden light that writhes like a serpent. The camera shows Danny with the girls, Daria and Cleo by his side with Ginger behind him. All of them, and the girls who are shown nearby, looking upward in awe at the light. The camera changes to show in full the golden light changing… the light flashing out to reveal in all his green-scaled might, the Eternal Dragon known as Shen Long!
The scene changes yet again, this time to show Danny Fenton changing into Danny Phantom. The camera shows him flying over the road, with the ocean in the background and a hover car that is similar to the car that Ox King gave to Goku and the others long ago. In the car driving at the wheel was Kim Possible, shotgun was Alexandra & in the back seat was Emma and Katie Kaboom. Riding behind them were several motorbikes that had the following riders- Sabrina, Vicky, Violet, Wendy, April, Felicia and Kitty!
The camera pointed to the sea to show Cleo in her mermaid form as she jumped out of the ocean. Following close in is a Capsule Corp. submarine/aircraft combo that holds Daria, Barbara, Diana and Cree! The camera changes to showcase Danny… and who is above him! Flying above was Kara Kent in her superheroine outfit, Musa in her Winx persona, Phantasma, Spectra, Starfire, Gwen Tennyson in her alien form… and Penny Proud & Makoto flying atop a yellow Nimbus Cloud together!
The camera showed clips of Danny and the others going into various places for adventure & to learn and grow. It shows clips of the group searching in the sea, with Danny in scuba gear on & swimming with Cleo with the submarine/aircraft combo following them. It soon shows a clip of Danny with Makoto, Katie and Felicia as they are in another city as they are taking in the sights of it. And shows a clip of Danny in his Phantom form with Sabrina on her broom, Kim in a jet pack & Kara in her superheroine persona as they fly around & have some good fun.
The camera than showed appeared to be flying through mountains, than over a vast desert that seemed to stretch for miles! It than stopped and showcased familiar settings. It showed Fortune-Teller Baba's Palace, with said pink-haired fortune teller floating on her ball with her pink ghost assistant by her side as they grinned at the camera & audience. The camera stayed on them for a moment before shifting to a scene that showed Turtle Island where it showed Master Roshi, his Turtle companion & Launch in her blue-haired form as they waved and smiled to the audience.
The camera than changed to show Korin's Tower, and at the base of it was Tien Shinhan, his friend Chiaotzu, the former desert bandit Yamcha & finally Goku's best friend Krillin! They all stop their martial arts training to look at the audience before smiling and waving hello. The camera shifts and changes to the entrance of the place that holds the World Martial Arts Tournament… and coming into view for all to see were the previous contestants like Nam, Bacterian, Ran-Fan, Giran and Pamput. Also coming into view was the permanent fixture of the tournament, the Announcer himself! All wave to the audience before doing their signature poses.
The camera changed to show a dark-yellow nebula backdrop with many shadowy figures that range in size and shape, most likely featuring the many enemies that Danny and his dates would meet in the future. One of them stood out from the rest, in front of the shadow shapes with its features more outlined. It was a tall being in a turban and cape with pointed shoulder guards, his shoes also pointed & looking tall and imposing.
The camera than transitioned quickly to show the many characters that were linked to the ladies, indicating it was their friends & family members back home. It showed the forms and faces of characters like Mr. & Mrs. Fenton, Tucker Foley, Dani Fenton/Phantom, Batman, Robin, Superman, Mr. & Mrs. Possible, Ron Stoppable, Clawdeen Wolf, Draculaura, Frankie Stein, Martin Mystery with Java the Caveman, M.O.M., Dipper and Mabel Pines, Max & Ben Tennyson and Kevin Eleven, Professor Charles Xavier & Wolverine, Mr. & Mrs. Proud with Sugar Mama, and more!
The scene changes to showcase case to a large mesa that is high above the ground… and near the center of the immense chunk of earth is Danny Phantom Goku still in his child form! Behind him was Kami the Guardian of the Earth & his assistant Mr. Popo. Behind the halfa hero was his entourage, the women looking on as something was about to happen. Goku and Danny were smirking… than charging at one another as this was a sparring match of sort! The camera showed a clip of Goku getting hit by a green ecto-blast, than switching fast to show Goku hitting Danny hard over the head with his Power Pole!
The scene soon changed again, this time showing Danny Fenton flying on the Nimbus Cloud with a Dragonball in his hand! The young man looked relieved, and was soon joined by the other women as they were in a large aircraft that was big enough to hold them all comfortably!
The camera gets a close up of Danny as he holds the Four-Star Dragonball. Than the camera goes into the aircraft to show the ladies and what they carried; first was Kim Possible holding the One-Star Ball, Starfire lifting up for all to see the Two-Star Ball, Penny Proud holding up in her left hand the Three-Star Ball, Gwen Tennyson cradling in her hands the Five-Star Ball, Katie Kaboom smiling and holding high in victory the Six-Star Ball & finally Alex holding high the Seven-Star Ball!
The scene changes to show all are on land now, the seven spheres gathered together and glowing… and the form of Shen Long emerging once more! The Eternal Dragon roared loudly as he was summoned, and the camera showed Danny underneath the visage of the dragon with the women on both sides. The entire group than did their signature poses as the music ended, an excellent pan shot of everyone underneath the roaring form of Shen Long!}
{{End Intro}}
Inside the immense Caspule Corps. aircraft, Danny was looking down to see the land down below. The resident of Amity Park was amazed to see actual live dinosaurs down below, more so when he discovered that they looked different from the ones he had seen back in his world. He said out loud in amazement, "Whoa! That one down there looks like a Tyrannosaurus Rex, but it has two long spikes on both sides of its head like a fan!".
Vicky chuckled in amusement and explained with a smile on her face, "That is called a Ferocisaurus, named so because it's one of the most aggressive and ferocious dinosaurs on the planet. Females have four spikes, while makes like six spikes.". Eileen-san was not only good with numbers and figures, she was also good at identifying certain animals, specifically dinosaurs.
While not an expert, she took it up as a personal hobby since dinosaurs did fascinate her as a kid. When she was about six years old, she managed to take care and raise a male Dimetrodon, a large mammal-like reptile with a sail on its back. She had raised him from a small egg, naming the little guy Zooky.
Vicky and Zooky grew close as time moved on, their bond strong and sure. But sadly, he started to become too big for the house and neighborhood, so they had to release him back in the wild. It had been painful for Eileen-san to part with her beloved friend, but she had known it was for the best. And to this day, she did not know the whereabouts or condition of her sailed dinosaur friend.
The Fenton lad continued to look down at the land through the window, wishing he had a camera to take pictures with. He saw more unusual dinosaurs; one that was green with yellow spots on the side of the neck & small yellow rectangular-looking spines on the back of said appendage, with horns and ears like that of a giraffe. It looked to be an Apatosaurus… but the dinosaur's head had sharp teeth & had the size and shape of something that should belong on a Saber-Tooth Tiger!
Another looked to be a brown Stegosaurus, but had a spike neck-frill that normally would be found on a Styracosaurus. And also what appeared to be wavy-shaped spine ridges on the thigh area of the beast & near the base of the diamond-shaped spine plates.
There was one that looked to be a green Ceratosaurus, though it looked a bit different than the ones he saw back in the books back at his home universe.
Danny had a large grin on his face as he said, "Man, I wish I had a camera to take pictures of them. The others back home are not going to believe of dinosaurs being here, and much different from the ones we know!".
Bulma smiled at the child-like actions of Danny and called out, "Well, lucky for you, I can do that for you!". She looked back to the control panel, pressing a couple of buttons that had a screen turn on to the left side of the console. The screen blinked to life, showing an aerial view of what was occurring down below.
She called out to Danny as she focused on the screen, "This aircraft here has a few cameras on it, and I believe I can get some good pictures of the dinosaurs before for you. We can print them out when we get to my home.". The Brief heiress had accessed the craft's underbelly camera, now taking pictures of the dinosaurs that Danny was seeing.
The blue-haired beauty managed to get some excellent shots, thanks to the zoom feature and the animal in the right pose for the necessary amount of time to take the picture with.
Danny said in a grateful tone, "Thanks Bulma! I really appreciate it.".
Satoshi chuckled and stated, "Wow, kid. Now I know you ARE from another universe. They don't have dinosaurs back where you come from?".
The halfa hero looked to Takehiko-san and answered, "Not to my knowledge, Satoshi. In our world, the dinosaurs all went extinct millions of years ago. We only find fossils of them, than we try to imagine what they look like.".
Angelica Pickles put in, "And the ones that we buy into more of what they look like are from movies like Jurassic Park. Heh… my cousins Tommy and Dil really like seeing those kinds of movies.".
Emma Mackenzie chuckled and added in, "Yeah, those movies were good. Though personally, I like the first one better.".
Tyler stated, "Really? The dinosaurs in your world went extinct? Hard to imagine this world without dinosaurs around…". He had grown fond of seeing the unusual and unique animals, as he was born and raised for a little bit in the country before moving to the big city. And even now, he wanted to see if he could adopt a miniature dinosaur for a pet. However, his wife Mayumi was hesitant since owning a dinosaur pet was a bit high-maintenance for up-keeping.
Jen Masterson remarked, "I know for a fact that my friends would be shocked to see these kinds of dinosaurs here. They would also be stunned silly after seeing Krillin use that Kamehameha Wave thing! Hehehehe… Master Roshi was right, using ki like that with complete focus is amazing!".
The others looked at her curiously, Danny inquiring in a curious tone, "What do you mean by that Jen?".
She looked to him, than snapped her fingers and said, "Oh yeah! You weren't there with us, and Angelica & Emma were with Bulma in another plane. Need to tell the others who were with Master Roshi yesterday to tell the others what he told us concerning ki. Okay now, here is what he explained to us about ki…".
Miss Masterson may not have a photographic memory, but it was excellent enough to be close to it. And another ability she displayed was that she could recall every word that was spoken by the Turtle Hermit, which surprised the ones who were hearing it for the first time. Danny especially so, since ki sounded so much different from his ecto-energy.
He felt the difference as well when Krillin had demonstrated in using the Kamehameha Wave. Danny felt the energy residue from the rock that was used by Master Roshi in his rock-finding test, where it had been held by Chiaotzu's psychic power. To him, it was like a buzzing sensation throughout his body, similar to how one is in a massage chair with it being on low power.
Danny felt the magic from Desiree when she utilized it in granting wishes, like his whole body getting a short but sharp electric jolt when touched by someone that had a good amount of static electricity to them.
With the energy from the Kamehameha Wave, it was different. He felt intense warmth like being near a roaring fire, yet also surging like a strong wave that was coming in from the sea. It was an unusual sensation that was different from his own ecto-energy, which was strong in its own right… but felt small compared to the ki energy used by Krillin.
And it was not just the look and feeling of it, but also the practice of how ki was. For Danny, it took some self-taught lessons on how to use his ecto-energy. Since most of the spirits he had dealt with were not friendly enough to give him some pointers on how to control his power, he had to learn on his own & on the fly.
It was also the same with his martial arts, as he had learned some basic self-defense from his mother but that was about it. While she did teach him the basic fundamentals when it came to self-protection, she did not emphasize much on the aspects of her chosen martial arts which was karate, in which she was a 9th degree black belt. Same with Valerie Gray, as she was also in the same league as his mother in karate.
Most of what he learned in fighting was self-taught, his only mentors when it came to anything related was Frostbite and his people of the Far Frozen in which he was taught to control his ice power.
And now listening to what was relayed back by Jen showed him a whole new world in a different perspective. He thought to himself, 'So according to Master Roshi, it takes proper and serious training of the mind, body, soul and spirit, one can utilize ki in various ways. And there are two kinds of ways to bring forth ki, which is using emotions & complete focus.'.
His internal thoughts continued on, 'And while using emotions to bring out ki sounds like an easy method, it has some serious drawbacks. While it would work for a bit in the short-run, in the long-run… it would really mess up a person big time. And I have experienced something like that in the past…'.
Danny knew it was true. During one of his rare moments back home where he would contemplate & reflect on previous events, he saw on what happened when he lost his head. That he had committed all kinds of mistakes that had resulted in property damage… not to mention damage on an emotional scale, both in his mortal and spirit form.
The halfa hero thought once more, 'And while using complete focus and willpower is good to bring it out without causing damage to one's self like with emotion, it takes longer to do & also that the soul/body/mind/heart/spirit have to be in balance with one another to bring it out to its full potential. Combined with the warnings on misusing ki in various ways, no wonder Master Roshi was adamant first in conditioning our bodies first.'.
Danny managed to come back to reality, looking at Jen and saying, "Thanks for telling me all of this Jen. This really gets me more ready for the training to start with Master Roshi.".
The young lady blushed lightly and replied, "It's no problem Danny. Besides, I believed it was something you needed to know. Me and the others traveling with Master Roshi told the others what he told us, but it seems that we neglected to tell you. Sorry about that.".
The Fenton lad just nodded and stated, "It's okay. Better a bit late than never.". He wanted to tell Jen, Angelica and Emma on how it also got him to thinking. Danny wanted to explain to them on how he was thinking on how different he could have been if he had been properly trained from the start instead of just picking up basic self-defense techniques & learning on his own.
However, there was still Bulma and the others who did not know his secret & he was still unsure on when he could trust them with his alter-ego. There was no 'if', but when. Right now, Miss Brief and the others had some of his trust. Just not enough for the time being.
Angelica asked, "So Bulma, where do we go first when we arrive at your home?".
The blue-haired beauty answered, "When we get there, we first do Danny's ID. Next, we go to the West City National Bank to set up his accounts. After that, we go to the Autocon Mall to get Danny's new wardrobe.".
Emma inquired, "But what about Gaspar? Are we not going to drop him off at the MegaMink Art Gallery?".
Teófilo-san chuckled and remarked, "There is no need for that, my dear. Once we land at the Brief estate, I can make my way back to the gallery. It will take me some time to gather up the necessary colleagues needed to head back to the compound so that we can bring back all of the artwork. Ahhh… the patrons and those who love art are going to be shocked silly when they see genuine works that have assumed to be lost forever!".
Gaspar was passionate when it came to art, and he knew without a shadow of a doubt that the artwork community was going to get a genuine good kick out of seeing the priceless works that had been pilfered by Commander Red.
Tyler stated, "And it will also take me, Vicky and Satoshi some time to gather some trusted workers to help with the loading up of the monetary parts of Commander Red's ill-gotten gain. But it will be worth it so that his fortune can finally be put to some good use.".
Jeptha-san still remembered the news of what the infamous paramilitary organization did, on how the Commander's army had terrorized numerous parts of the planet. It still boggled him on how much wealth he had stashed away, wondering on how much he really possessed if what they found in his secret vault was his emergency funding of sort.
Bulma put in, "Well, that will give me the chance to show Danny and the others around the city more! Just let me know when it's all ready, okay?". Her old friends nodded their heads, promising to inform her the moment everything was all set up on their end.
Danny and the others were now more excited, and it showed on their faces. To them, it meant more time to explore a totally new city completely and get a feel for it.
~At the Brief residence~
It was exactly 10:00 a.m. when the immense aircraft arrived to West City, heading straight towards the Capsule Corp. headquarters which was also Bulma's home. Danny was looking out and down from his window view to see the metropolis, and it really had his eyes widen in surprise and shock. He was seeing anthro beings of tigers, dogs, wolves and more mingling with normal human beings like it was not out of the ordinary. He even saw an anthro walrus wearing a tuxedo and looking all dapper like a gentleman of high class, even wearing a monocle on his left eye!
He saw small dinosaurs being like pets, a small Tyrannosaurus on a leash with a joyful little girl holding onto said leash! And also many other small dinosaurs around in the park, some even playing with stray dogs and cats!
The Fenton lad saw hovercars being driven, with some opting to drive on wheels. And he was amazed to see a young man zooming around on a hoverbike, passing by the large plane while doing some cool aerial tricks. And seeing the window road tunnel highways made him feel like he was in a bizarre but cool version of the future from the movie Back to the Future: Part 2.
They soon reached their destination, Bulma landed with expert precision on the lawn near her home. She opened up the hatch door, telling everyone to please file out. Once everyone accounted for was on the lawn, including herself, the blue-haired bombshell went to the right side of the hatch and pressed a button on it. An explosion of smoke, followed by an unusual sound, came up that caused them all to shield their eyes. A moment later, the smoke cleared and Danny, Angelica, Jen and Emma were amazed to see that the immense craft that had carried them all was no more… only a yellow capsule that looked like a medicine pill but three times as long with a blue number 17 on it!
Bulma went over, picked it up and put the item into her pocket. She turned around with a cheeky grin on and stated, "Heh, gotta love these Dyno-Caps!". The heiress loved seeing the surprised look on the faces of her friends from another universe.
Angelica managed to get over her stunned state and exclaimed, "That was awesome! Bulma, that kind of stuff these capsule things do would really be a hit back home!".
Jen remarked, "Are you kidding Angelica? With something like that, it could revolutionize almost everything back home!".
Danny agreed with her and added in, "She's not kidding about that. Being able to put something so large and massive away like that, it would really help a lot of people out all over the world!". This now made Bulma wondering if when the time comes for them to go back home, to give them the scientific formula in making the Dyno-Caps. It was something to seriously consider, but for now she would file it away in her mind.
Gaspar turned and started to walk to the entrance/exitway of the estate, turning back while walking still and waving to the group. He called out with a good-natured smirk on his face & in a teasing tone, "Good luck with your ID and shopping, young Daniel! And also be strong! You ARE going to be getting a whole new wardrobe set that will most likely last you a year or so! And I believe those girls there will have fun with you in seeing you in various outfits!".
The young man chuckled nervously, wondering if he was going to be able to survive. He had fought many kinds of enemies… but nothing had prepared him for what he was going to endure soon. Back in his hometown, Samantha would discourage him to buy anything exclusive or expensive, saying that it was a plot by the owners so that people would buy into the 'stereotypical and cliché'. It was a bit hypocritical for her, since she did gush over the latest gothic fashions which were a bit pricey in itself.
Danny knew that Sam wanted to make statements, but he really started to feel that she was doing it in a wrong & hypocritical way.
Teófilo-san was now at the sidewalk, raising his hand and calling for a taxi. In a moment, a yellow hovercar with the words in black TAXI on the passenger side of the vehicle came. Danny, Jen, Emma and Angelica were a bit surprised to see that the driver was a brown gorilla wearing a semi-casual uniform. Once Gaspar was in, he told the driver his destination and the vehicle soon sped off on the road.
Emma admitted, "Okay, still going to take me some time in seeing something like that.". Danny and the others agreed with her, as that was quite a bit of a sight to see.
Bulma and the ones native to the world chuckled, the blue-haired beauty stating, "Emma, you and the others have only seen the tip of the iceberg! Now come on, let's get inside before…".
Her words stopped when a familiar female voice rang out, "Yoo-hoo! Bulma sweetie!". Said young woman blushed in embarrassment, turning with a small scowl on her face to the one that called out to her. Vicky, Tyler and Satoshi chuckled as they knew Panchy Brief well enough to know that the blonde beauty's actions did embarrass their friend to no end, to their amusement of course.
Danny was very much stunned to see a beautiful woman going over to them, having a figure that many supermodels would kill to have. She did look quite young and vivacious, walking towards them with a watering can in hand. He said to himself, "That is Bulma's mother? She looks so young and… well, bubbly.". He was referring to her attitude and energy that seemed to flow forth from the woman strongly, not the… ahem, ample assets that she had that was contained in her orange shirt top.
Angelica replied, "Yup, that's her mother. And yeah, I am surprised that she looks so young. I wonder what she does to keep that youthful look… and the figure as well.". The Pickles lass was a bit envious as she saw the body form of Panchy, looking down at her own form and a bit disappointed with the current looks.
She hoped to have a figure like Mrs. Brief had in the future, knowing that she was still developing but couldn't help but feel a bit envious that she had a supermodel-like figure.
Mrs. Brief said with joy in her tone, "Glad to see you back dear! And you brought company! Hello everyone! Good to see you again, especially you Satoshi, Tyler and Vicky!". She smiled brilliantly at them, waving her hand as she was beside her daughter.
The group minus Danny waved back to her, Vicky speaking up, "Hey there Mrs. Briefs! It's good to see you again! It's been awhile, hasn't it?".
Panchy smile stayed on her as she replied, "Oh yes, it has been awhile! Good to see that you three are doing well. And… oh! Who is this young man?". Her eyes turned to Danny, said eyes opening up from their closed upside-down U-shape to reveal that she had some beautiful blue-colored eyes that looked to be lighter than Bulma's own.
Bulma schooled herself, the scowl being replaced by a small smile as she answered, "Mom, this is Danny Fenton. He is one of my new friends.".
Said young man raised his hand in a friendly gesture and stated, "Hi there, ma'am. Nice to meet you.".
The mature beauty had a smile on her face, her eyes still open as she answered, "Oh, nice to meet you Danny! Are you Bulma's boyfriend?".
The blunt question quickly had Danny adopt a confused look on his face, Bulma's face turning red with an angered look now on & also Jen, Emma and Angelica's mouths dropping in a bit of shock at the question posed by Mrs. Brief. Vicky and her companions chuckled, knowing full well that Panchy would ask such a question out of the blue like so.
Panchy seemed to be studying Danny for a bit, looking him over up and down before turning her head to her daughter and saying, "Well, he is rather cute looking! A little on the young side, but still cute! Have you two made out together yet?".
Danny's face blushed a bright red at this, looking down in embarrassment, while Bulma was now very much ticked off at her mother's words. She exclaimed with her eyes now white with her teeth now forming into jaws like a shark, "WILL YOU STOP EMBARESSING ME LIKE THIS?! DANNY IS NOT MY BOYFRIEND, YAMCHA IS! DANNY MAYBE CUTE, BUT HE'S TOO YOUNG FOR ME!".
The words from Bulma made Danny's face heat up more, Angelica and the other ladies looking to him as they managed to get their mental facilities back up and running. The trio found the blushing look cute on him, small smiles forming on their faces as they giggled softly. Vicky and the others chuckled, seeing that their hunch in seeing some quality entertainment thanks to Mrs. Brief was correct.
The Fenton lad managed fight down his embarrassment as he lifted his head up and spoke in a slightly embarrassed tone, "N-No ma'am! I'm just a good friend of Bulma's! She's helping me out with something important, that's all.".
The lively beauty closed her eyes, forming the familiar upside-down U-shape and replied, "Ah, I see. Sorry about the misunderstanding young man. You are cute though, and have manners too. I bet you and Bulma would have been a cute couple if you two met when she was younger.".
Bulma was very much steamed still as she exclaimed, "Mother, for the last time, quit embarrassing me and my friends! Come on everyone, let's go in!". She quickly walked towards the front door, ignoring the laughs coming from Vicky and her associates as they followed her. Angelica, Jen and Emma followed after them, Danny bringing up the rear.
He waved to Mrs. Brief and said, "Well… it was nice meeting with you, Mrs. Briefs! You take care!".
Panchy waved goodbye and replied, "Nice meeting you too Danny!". She giggled at the shyness of the young man, soon walking back to her garden to tend to it.
When they made it inside, Danny was still blushing a bit from his encounter with Bulma's mom. He thought, 'Man, that was awkward! I thought that my parents were embarrassing, but even if it's just from a small interaction, I would say that Bulma's mother is close to their league.'. He truly had no idea that while loving and well-meaning, Bulma's parents were very close to the level of Danny's folks when it came to embarrassing their children.
Jen giggled a little at the slightly flushed face of her friend and asked, "So Danny, how do you like Mrs. Brief?".
He turned to her with a tired smile and answered, "Well, she is beautiful but it seems she is quite blunt. She does seem nice enough, but I have to give her some points when it comes to making Bulma mad like that.".
Vicky turned to the two and stated with conviction with a touch of humor in her tone, "Oh, this was nothing. Mr. and Mrs. Briefs are very good folks, but it seems that tact are not their strong suits. Me, Tyler and Satoshi here have known the family for quite some time, and the stories we could tell you about the times the parents embarrassed her to such a degree that it would make the temper you see now look like nothing.".
This made the duo, plus Emma and Angelica, wonder just how much Bulma had endured under her caring but blunt folks.
When they reached the door, Bulma went in first as the automatic doors opened for them. Danny saw that the inside looked modest and well-decorated, and also tidy as well. However, the halfa got a surprise when she took them to the open area within the house. He exclaimed in surprise, "Wow! Are we back outside or…?".
The blue-haired genius beauty giggled at the surprised look on his face and answered, "No, we're still inside. This place is special as my Dad has a soft spot for stray animals. He picks up all sorts of creatures here and takes care of them.".
Emma smirked and stated, "And take a look at the kinds of pets this guy brings in.". And on cue, Danny saw many animals like cats, dogs, birds… and also dinosaurs! He was surprised to see a baby Allosaurus chasing some cats around… only for the bully baby to retreat when the small cats he was chasing brought in some friends of theirs.
In the treetops were some colorful-looking birds, like those found in the tropical regions. And nesting among them were small green Rhamphorhynchus, a long-tailed flying reptile that were different from their short-tail Pterosaur cousins.
And stomping in was a young Nigersaurus, a sauropod dinosaur that was 30 feet long with a short neck. It looked to weigh about 4 tons, and had a face that had a flat-bill on it. It was dark-forest green with a lighter-green underbelly, small ridges that ran down the middle from the top of its head to the beginning of its tail area. And also black eyes that showed intelligence and calmness.
Danny was very much mystified to see a dinosaur, a living breathing one that looked to peer at the young man. In fact, the dinosaur slowly approached him which made Danny go stiff. In fact, the dinosaurs in the place seemed to stop what they were doing and was now looking directly at the Fenton lad.
This made Bulma and the others looking on have perplexed looks on their faces as they saw the scene unfolding before them. Satoshi asked, "Strange… it seems that Fenton-san's presence is somehow attracting the attention of the dinosaurs. I wonder why…?".
Hearing his words, and also seeing that he was right when the ancient animals were looking at him, made Danny adopt a thinking look to form on his face. He thought, 'Satoshi is right! The dinosaurs seem to be coming to me, but… oh no! It must be my spirit side! They are acting like Nebula did when she sniffed me!'.
He was indeed correct in that assumption. All animals had strong connections to nature, and dinosaurs were no exception to that. In fact, thanks to them being the most ancient species on the planet, they had a stronger connection to nature than even regular animals! The only thing that surpassed them were mystical animals like dragons and such.
Right now, the dinosaurs could sense that there was much more to Danny than just his outer appearance. They sensed that he was supernatural, and yet also natural at the same time, which produced an otherworldly quality the likes they had never felt before.
The Nigersaurus continued to walk towards Danny, stopping in front of him and soon sniffing him. The young lad remained still, not wanting to do anything to spook it. After some moments, the dinosaur stopped sniffing and looked directly into the eyes of Danny… and then its black eyes turned into the upside-down U-shape as it let out a grunt and nuzzled its head against his!
Danny was a bit surprised, on reflex holding the side of the dinosaur's head, but he smiled as it seemed that the creature was gentle with him & trusted him. He let out a breath of relief, the others doing the same as it had been a bit of a tense moment.
A familiar male voice spoke up, "Well, I'll be. Now that is a sight I never thought I see.". The group minus Danny turned to their right to see that the one who spoke was Dr. Brief, coming to them while pushing his bicycle. On his left shoulder was his faithful small black cat by the name of Scratch.
Vicky went over to them, gently putting Scratch underneath his chin who purred loudly in enjoyment from the attention, and asked Dr. Brief, "Sir, what do you mean by that?".
Dr. Brief looked to the young woman and answered, "Well, that particular dinosaur there is a girl I named Harumi. She has stayed here ever since she hatched about two years ago, and other than me and my wife Panchy, is very nervous and shy around others. Not even Bulma could coax her out, and she has tried. But this young man… he managed to do something I thought was impossible with others.".
The Nigersaurus, or Harumi as she is now identified, continued to growl-purr softly in contentment while nuzzling her head to Danny's own. The halfa was smiling as he stroked her head gently, the other dinosaurs around looking at the scene & at the visitor from another universe/reality with mild fascination with a dash of curiosity mixed into it.
Everyone was very impressed by this, especially Bulma since she had lost count on the number of tries to get to know Harumi before finally giving up. Her surprised look gave way to a smile, glad to see Harumi make a new friend and also that truly there was more to Danny than meets the eye, but in a good way.
After some moments of petting the gentle dinosaur, Danny gave her one last kind look before turning to Dr. Brief. He asked, "I believe that you're Bulma's father right? The one who invented the Dyno-Caps?".
The mature genius nodded, the black cat on his shoulder meowing softly. Dr. Brief replied, "I sure am, young man. And I take it that you are here to get a new ID card like the others from yesterday?". The Fenton lad nodded his head in confirmation, chuckling a bit from the slight prodding from Harumi's head. It seemed that the young one wanted for the strange human to continue petting her.
Dr. Brief asked, "It seems that you have a way with animals, young man. Do you mind if I could borrow you later on? I wish to see if you can keep Spiny occupied for a bit while I give him a check-up.".
Angelica asked, "Spiny? Who is Spiny? A spikey dinosaur?". In her mind, she envisioned one of the spike-covered dinosaurs such as Stegosaurus. Jen imagined Kentrosaurus, a dinosaur similar to Stegosaurus but with spikes instead of plates from half the back area all the way to the tail. Emma imagined an Ankylosaurs.
The father of Bulma looked to the ladies, shaking his head and answering, "No, not quite ladies. Spiny is… ah, there he is!". He pointed to the far right of the area… and rising up from the tree tops was the head of a Spinosaurus! Spiny had a blue body coloring with a cream-colored underbelly, and the large sail on his back was a pitch-black coloring. The dinosaur looked to the others with its dark-green eyes… than actually waved to them while showing his row of razor-sharp teeth in a grin!
Danny and the ladies from another universe paled as they saw something that was bizarre on many levels. They hesitantly, slowly waved back while trying to process the whole situation. Bulma smiled and stated, "Yeah, Spiny is a sweetheart but he hates getting check-ups. Can't stand needles and other things that irritate his mouth.".
The visitors from another reality were wondering if they were somehow dreaming this, subtly pinching themselves to make sure. The short but sharp pain told them that yes, they were awake and this was reality.
The halfa hero turned back to Dr. Brief, and with a nervous grin on said in a nervous tone, "Hehehehe… ummm, sorry Dr. Brief. But I have a lot to do today, so going to have to take a rain check on that.". He turned to Bulma, asking if they could please go to the ID Room now. The blue-haired beauty chuckled at the scene, and also at the look of stunned shock on the faces of her new friends.
She replied, "Of course. Come on everyone, follow me.". She led the group out of the area, Harumi calling out for Danny to come back. He looked back at her, smiled a real one and waved back to her. His eyes soon darted upwards to Spiny, who cocked his head curiously at him. His smiled morphed to a nervous one before turning away.
This was a moment he was really going to put down in his journal back at the compound!
~At the ID Room~
Footsteps and laughter echoed through the area, Bulma and her companions were laughing as they were teasing Danny and the ladies with what happened earlier. Satoshi chuckled and stated, "You all turned so pale when you met Spiny! Hahahaha! I thought you all turned to ghost's right there!".
Angelica's face turned red from some mild embarrassment and exclaimed, "Hey! We thought that thing was going to eat us! The way I always assumed, Spinosaurus were NOT pets and did not WAVE back with toothy grins like that!".
Vicky giggled softly and remarked, "Oh, Spiny is different from the other wild Spinosaurus. He's such a sweetheart! I remember where he liked to give me and Bulma rides on his back some years ago. But like Bulma said, he is not a big fan of check-ups. He sees anything close to a needle or tongue depressor, he makes a big fuss like a big baby.".
Emma imagined Spiny surrounded by doctors who had various surgical implements, herself shuddering as she was not a big fan of needles and such herself. But instead of being nervous like she would be… she imagined Spiny roaring and chasing the doctors, who screamed and ran for their lives. She quickly dispelled the image before it could get to the gory part.
Jen suggested, "Well… I don't know if it will work for dinosaurs, but what about you do this for him? Next time you try a check-up for him, sing a lullaby for him to calm him down? Or cover his eyes that he doesn't see the tools? My Mom used to do that for me when I was little, whenever we had to go do some check-ups at the doctor.
Bulma and the others stopped for a moment, realizing that Miss Masterson had two good points there. Tyler was quiet for a moment before he exclaimed, "Shoot! Now why didn't we think of that?! That could have saved us so much time and trouble to do something like that, instead of trying to force him to endure it & than running for our lives and then tranquilizing him to do the check-up!".
Now it was Danny and the ladies turn to laugh as something that simple had gone over their heads.
They arrived at the door to the room, Bulma doing the necessary access code number to open the door. They all walked in, Danny looking at the set-up and linking it to one of the photo studios that he had been to before as a child. When he was about five or so years old, he and his family went to a store at the Amity Park Mall, where they took several different family pictures. He was now hoping that he would not have to stand still for more than fifteen minutes, or for scenery to change.
The blue-haired beauty pointed to one of the blue X marks and stated, "Okay Danny, stand there on the X and look directly at the camera in front of you. Also, do you wish to use your real name or go with something else?". She went to the camera that was situated in front of Danny, making sure it was on & also that it was focused and adjusted just right to capture all of his facial features.
The son of Jack and Madeline Fenton thought on it for a bit, than answered, "I'm going to use my real name, which is Daniel James Fenton.".
Jen asked, "And do you wish to go with a background and nickname, like we did?". She, Angelica and Emma pulled out their new wallets and showed the young man their new ID cards, which showed their backgrounds & also the nicknames they've chosen.
After seeing the cards, Danny smiled and knew what he wanted his ID to be like. He answered, "Yup, all of that looks good!".
The whole process lasted for just five minutes. Bulma had taken several shots of Danny's face, showing to them when it was complete & picking out the one that was the best in his view. It was him smiling with his teeth-showing, his blue eyes open for all to see. Once that was done, Miss Brief took him to the computer and inputted the data of information he wished to have. He told her to make so that it would show he was fifteen years of age, which was his real age. Said information was recorded in the card, and also shown on the back in case physical proof was needed. And of course, the address was to Bulma's home.
Once that was done, showing on screen to make sure it was accurate though Danny was a bit perplexed that years were set in the form of age, he picked out the background for his ID. It was of space, with the Earth put in the upper-left corner of the screen & the moon to the upper-right corner. It showed also stars in the inky blackness, with Danny's head right square in the middle of it all. Jen, Angelica and Emma knew why he had chosen space, since they heard Danny saying that he wished to be a NASA astronaut.
The nickname he chose was Space Dreamer, stating that his dream was to visit the stars and be an astronaut. This mildly surprised Bulma, Vicky, Tyler and Satoshi as that was quite a goal to achieve. In the lower-right corner, in bold yellow words was the nickname.
Once everything was good and complete on the screen, Bulma turned on the printing machine and soon the ID card came forth in pristine condition & covered in a thin but strong laminated protective covering. She waited a bit for it cool down, than handed the ID card to Danny. He looked at it for a moment and stated, "Now this looks excellent! Thanks for making this for me, Bulma!".
The ladies went to go take a look at the picture, Angelica commenting, "I have to say Danny, you really have a good smile there.".
Emma added in, "Yeah, and the background is cool too! It does look like you are in space.".
Jen put in her words, "And I really like the nickname you used! And the words… they almost look like those intro words that they show at the very start of those classic Star Wars movies.".
Bulma smiled, glad to have performed another good deed for her new friend. Vicky spoke up, "Well, I believe that now is the time to go to the bank. Danny, I hope you are ready for more surprises.".
The young halfa hero looked at her with a small smile and replied, "After seeing anthro beings and dinosaurs, what else could possibly surprise me?".
~At the West City National Bank~
As the long limo parked into the VIP Parking Only section in front of the bank, Danny emerged from the vehicle very much surprised. He had seen many luxurious things back home, thanks to his archenemy flaunting his wealth here and there. Not to mention seeing Samantha's parents driving around in a limo around town. But the vehicle that Bulma possessed was in a class of its own! And he had rode inside of it, Angelica and the ladies very much pleased to be back inside the deluxe limo.
As they had rode around the city towards their destination, Danny saw more of the metropolis and was very much stunned at seeing so many different beings walking around like it was normal. He knew that if any of his parents had been there with him, Jack and Maddie would be going crazy at seeing a sight that went beyond their scope of science in many fields. Just seeing an anthro being would have blown their minds!
And when he exited out of the top-of-the-line limo, he was stunned to see the immense structure that was the workplace of Vicky, Tyler and Satoshi! His gaze went upwards, looking at the building that beat anything he had seen back at Amity Park by a mile and a half! His jaw dropped down a little, his eyes wide with surprise.
Angelica and the others got close to him, the blonde fashionista smirking as she used a finger to close the jaw of Mr. Fenton. Emma giggled and said, "We know how you feel Danny. It was like that for us when we saw the bank like this.".
Jen added in, "And truth be told, still amazes me to see something this immense. And I have worked at a large mall!".
Vicky turned to her new friends and stated, "Heh, come on Danny. We still got a bit more stuff to do before we go to the Autocon Mall!". This managed to snap him out of his stunned state, he and the girls following Eileen-san and the others into the bank.
The young Fenton lad was impressed on how well-organized the bank was, despite the seemingly active & chaotic action that was taking place. He saw many kinds of people there, human and non-human, men and women, going about their duties & also helping other patrons. He swore he even saw a king and a queen inside one of the cubicles talking to one of the employees, the couple having their crowns and wearing royal wear!
They stopped at an elevator, going in and Bulma pushing the button for the 25th floor. Once they reached their destination, they walked over to the office of Vicky. Angelica, Emma and Jen realized that last time they were in there, they had to go to a large room due to the number of people. But with a smaller, more manageable group to tend to, all that was really required was a smaller room.
As they walked among the very active workroom, Danny saw that many young women were looking his way. Many unique and beautiful blondes, brunettes, noirette, green, blue, pink and even purple-hair colored ladies were giving looks of appreciation towards the Fenton lad. Many winked at him, others giggled as he blushed from seeing their actions towards him…
Some licked their lips at him, as if finding him to be a very juicy morsel in which to devour.
Angelica, Emma and Jen frowned at this sort of attention Danny was getting. It really irked them that the various women, human and anthro, were targeting the young man. But they could not figure out why though. The trio decided to get close to Danny; Miss Pickles on his left arm, Miss Mackenzie on his right arm & Miss Masterson directly behind his back.
The young man was confused by the actions of the girls, who glared at any female onlookers, who in turn frowned in return. Bulma and her friends saw this, a small smirk on the lips of all of them. It seemed that Danny was a bit dense to what was happening, and they saw that the trio was making sure to tell to other females to back off.
Once they arrived at her office and entered, Vicky closed the door and pressed her right hand to a panel that was above the light switch. The panel turned red, scanned her handprint, and after a few moments it turned green and made a beeping sound. Danny inquired, "What was that all about? A security measure?".
Eileen-san looked to the young man, a small smirk on her face as she answered, "Indeed. I just activated the soundproofing substance in-between the walls & also a special one-way window. Now while we can see what goes on outside through here, no one can hear or see anything through here. Also, it activates a bug sweeper in case someone tries to be clever and plant a listening device inside my office when I'm out of it.".
Mr. Fenton and the others were impressed by this type of security, as it seemed that Vicky and the others considered all the angles. Said young lady and her associates smirked at this, loving to seeing the surprises on the faces of people like so. On people who often underestimated them because of their position.
A ding like a bell was heard, Vicky stating that it meant the room was clean. Not having any bugs of any kind. She went to her desk, sitting in the chair and looking across at Danny. She inquired, "Now, I believe you still have some inquiries about our security before you start to make your Checking and Savings account?".
The young man nodded and replied, "I do. While you did list some impressive security features the cards have, I do have a couple of questions. Concerning bio-signatures, is it like fingerprints and such? And also, what if someone tried to use a really good mask to hide their identity when using a card at an ATM machine?".
Now Vicky was a smart girl, clever than what most people give her credit for. She smiled and stated, "I have to say this about you Danny, you are quite the clever guy to be able to see a concern like that.".
She continued on, "If you are worried about someone stealing your fingerprints and using them to access the card, than let me lay those worries to rest. The computer system here was designed by people who focused entirely on security, and also thinking outside the box to consider any and all ways someone might try to steal a card.".
Vicky took out her own card and explained, "The computer has been programmed to VERY carefully scan for any kind of substance on a person. If it detects anything, like clear tape, tiny window slides, etc. that is not skin or flesh, it automatically deduces that it is someone using an object for the fingerprint. If that happens, the card shuts down until it is reactivated by us personally.".
Danny, Angelica, Jen and Emma nodded their heads at this. They all admitted that it was a clever security detail.
Satoshi spoke up, "As for masks and such, the ATM machines have been equipped with small but powerful laser scanners. The lasers themselves are invisible to the naked eye, but they penetrate through masks of any kind. And believe me, the bank here has made sure to run all kinds of tests on various polymers and such that are capable of making very realistic masks so that the laser scanners are not fooled.".
Tyler finished up, "And if the scanner did find someone wearing a mask, no matter how elaborate or realistic, it would deny the card and also inform the police. The camera would also record everything that took place, marking it with a special code that can be accessed by the Chief of Police.".
The four from another universe had to admit that the security protocols and measures were very formidable. While no system or design was perfect, this showed at least that the security detail at the bank did not mess around. And this made the four more comfortable in their choice of putting their new fortune in the bank, and to let Vicky and the others handle the finances.
Danny spoke up with a smile on his face, "Well, I have to say this… you got my sold! So, let's do this!".
~At Autocon Mall~
It was about 10:45 a.m. when Danny and the ladies exited out of the van in the parking garage meant for VIP and exclusively-rich customers. He was now all set up with a Checking and Savings account, but the cards to said accounts would not be given to him or the others until the entire wealth they had was accounted for & stored in the banks vaults. And even after that, they would still have to do the procedures in order for the cards to have the full security measures that were told to them.
So now while Vicky and the others were gathering some trusted fellow employees so they could later take them to the former Red Ribbon Army compound, Bulma was going to do another mall crawl but this time it was all for Danny's benefit.
Said young man was astounded when he saw the mall through the limo window, seeing that it made the Amity Park Mall back home look like nothing. When he got out of the car, helping Angelica and the ladies out of the vehicle, he spoke, "Bulma, I really have to say this about West City… they don't do anything by half!".
The heiress to Capsule Corp. smiled and replied, "Thanks Danny! If you thought the outside of the mall was cool, just wait till you see the inside of it!".
Angelica smiled widely as she added this in with a gleam in her eyes & passion in her tone, "Oh yeah! Danny, this mall has everything you can ask for! And I mean EVERYTHING! The styles are really amazing, despite being a little bit retro for my taste. But the prices are actually good, the accessories amazing & the locations of the stores! The Dress Seeker's Club is really incredible, one of the first places we need to go to!".
Jen made her own comments, "She is not lying about that Danny. The sports store they have here is pretty good, especially a place called Ronalds Rage. It's a sports store that makes the one I work in look like a kiddy store!".
Emma spoke up as well, "And they have a store called Jose Ramiro's Radical Waves that has a lot of items for anything involving the sea! Surfboards, swim wear, water toys… they have it all!".
Danny smirked a little and said, "Well, at least I know where I'm going on this little shopping trip.". Indeed, the ladies were going to take him to their currently favorite stores to shop and get clothes/accessories/items there that would be part of his new wardrobe.
Bulma chuckled softly and remarked, "Oh yeah! And after this, I will treat all of you to eat at the A-Beast 17 food store on the 3rd level. That place has some excellent food and drink there, and the service is not too bad.".
The group went into the elevator, going up the ground level… and the visitors from another universe were treated to the spectacular sight of the immense mall! It was Danny's first time in said establishment, so he was more surprised than Angelica and the others at seeing the complex area. He said to himself, "Wow! This is… this is amazing on the inside! I bet Paulina and Star would have a little meltdown at seeing a place like this!".
He heard splashing nearby, turning his head and very much surprised to see an indoor water park with a sign above the entrance to it that showed the words Adventure King- Water Carnival. He spoke with surprise in his tone, "Now that I think Danielle would love to stay at a place like that!".
Emma had a quizzical look on her face as she asked, "Danielle? Who is she? A friend of yours?".
Danny than remembered that he had not told any of them of his clone, and now was considering what kind of answer to give them. After a few moments of intense but brief internal debate, he decided to go with his heart. He answered to her, "Danielle is my younger sister. She's a good kid, but she likes to explore a lot. She's so active, sometimes it's hard for me to keep up with her.".
The halfa could have told them that Dani was his cousin… but after some time, he started to feel that she was more like a sister… like family. He made a mental note to tell the others about her later on, but only the women who knew his secret identity & also on what Danielle was as well.
Angelica took his hand, grabbing it and dragging him to a staircase that led to the 1st floor. While they could have taken the elevator that was directly behind them, it would appear that the young Pickles lady wanted to get in a bit of exercise & also see more of the area in a way that was more gratifying than just seeing it through an elevator window.
Danny felt the same, as he looked around to the many kinds of beings walking around and enjoying their time in the establishment. Jen, Emma and Bulma giggled slightly at the actions of Angelica, soon following them upward.
Their first destination was the Dress Seeker's Club, the store already packed with various beings in there that were looking for suitable clothing. The women outnumbered the men in said store, two to one actually. Danny was being led by Angelica, the blonde beauty taking him to the semi-casual wear area of the store. As she was looking through some clothes, she told him, "Okay now, let's get started! Since it is the Fall season, time to take care of that first!".
The young man wanted to say something, but it was no use. Miss Pickles was in her zone, her element, and once she started… no stopping her! His arms was soon full of various shirts and jeans, follows by some hats of different kinds. Thankfully, salvation came to him in the form of Bulma and the others. She, Jen and Emma had basket hovercarts, the blue-haired beauty smirking and telling Danny to put the items in her basket. He did so, relieved to have free arms once more.
Once she saw that she was done with the Fall outfit, Angelica moved along while dragging Danny with her. The trio chuckled at this, following the two once more. The baskets got full quickly; Jen's hovercart was used to hold the Spring wardrobe, Emma's for the Summer season, Bulma's for the Fall & finally Danny had to get a hovercart himself to hold the Winter line-up.
The clothing and accessories were divided into four categories; formal, semi-formal, semi-casual & casual. Danny also had to go to the Dressing room to show the choices that Angelica picked out for him.
For the Fall semi-casual outfits, Danny showcased three samples to the women. One was a green shirt with a yellow collar and in the neck-line area, with yellow ring décor as the sleeves ended at the elbow junction. He wore dark-black jeans, a black wristwatch that Emma picked out herself & dark-black shoes with white laces on them that formed a four-shaped diamond pattern when properly tied up. The shoes were something that Jen picked out.
The next outfit he showed off was a dark-blue Ascot cap with a small ball formation on the top directly in the middle of the creation, a wool gray scarf with red & blue line crisscross patterns on it, a gray shirt that was partially covered by a light-red jacket with brown at the collar area & blue jeans.
The final sample was a long-sleeved sweater that looked to have a mixture of green with gray in it & dark-red jeans.
For the Winter semi-casual outfits, Danny once more showed them three samples of what was chosen for him. The first one showed him wearing on his head what looked to be a fusion of an earflap-beanie & Santa cap. Said head gear was blue at the top half, yellow on the bottom half & the earflaps being red with small red wool balls at the tips. He wore black jacket that had pockets on the side & chest area; the left and right chest pockets were blue, the ones that would be at the sides were yellow. The jacket also had a fluffy brown part on the neck area, designed to keep said spot warm from the cold.
He also sported emerald-green wool gloves, dark-purple jeans & black winter boots with light-purple padding & dark-purple straps.
The second sample was a yellow long-sleeved shirt with brown tie-up strings just underneath the neck area, light-green jeans & also white sneakers that were dark-blue on the bottom half with dark-purple straps.
The final sample was red sweater with black vertical lines, which was over a dark-orange long-sleeved shirt. He wore dark-green jeans and the same shoes.
Danny was trying on a lot of clothing, and while he was a bit tired of taking on/taking off the clothes in the Dressing Room, he had to admit that it was good to see him in different kinds of clothing with each one having a different feel to it.
Jen, Emma, Angelica and Bulma were really having a good time as they saw some of the clothes Danny wore. Miss Masterson, Miss Pickles and Miss Mackenzie did blush at seeing the young man in certain clothes, such as the Formal wear. Jen and Emma had actually chosen this particular one out for him.
It was a light gray suit with a white button-up shirt underneath it, the collar part of the suit a light-blue color, a dark-red tie that was not a clip-on one, light-blue buttons with a small breast-pocket on the right side of the suit with a small golden cross that acted as a zipper for the pocket, slacks that matched the color of the suit & black formal shoes.
The other Formal wear was one picked out by Bulma, and it was of the Eastern variety. It consisted of a dark-blue yukata over a white shirt, with a sky-blue belt and lines on the lower area & black sandals with white socks on.
Seeing the halfa hero dressed up like that, and in the other styles of clothing, really got them warmed up. Bulma made sure to take pictures each time Danny came out wearing something else, having a camera in her purse that was in a capsule. She even took pictures of him some of the pajamas they got for him! One consisted of having the look of an astronaut, but with none of the bulk that actually came with being said space traveler.
It was white with a dark-gray ring on the collar area, the front having a zipper that had blue & red square patterns on it. There was a solid blue circle at the spot where the heart would be at. The upper shoulder areas had two red bands on them, the cuffs at the end having a gray color. The pockets were of a dark-blue color, and the cuffs at the end of the leg area were of the gray color. This was picked out by Jen.
The second pair of pajamas was a green short-sleeved shirt with light-sea green buttons & at the collar area. And also comfortable shorts that were the same color as the shirt.
The third pair of pajamas was a dark-blue, long sleeved shirt that had a golden streaking star in the very center of it. The pants were the same color as the shirt, but with golden stars on it. Emma picked it out since she knew that he did love space, and thus wanted to find for him a space-themed set that was different from the one that Jen got for him.
However, the three women were not the only ones that appreciated the little fashion show. Many female onlookers who saw Danny do his little fashion show for the four whistled and cheered when he came out in a particular ensemble that made the young man blush. Jen, Emma and Angelica were not pleased as they sent scowls to the outside onlookers.
Once everything was done, Danny back in the regular clothes he wore upon coming in, all of them went to the register so Bulma could pay for the purchases. Needless to say, the male cashier was VERY much pleased to assist them & would be expecting a bonus for aiding a customer like Miss Briefs who purchased a good amount of clothing and other items.
The store further helped her by assigning some store handlers to take the purchases to her vehicle. Bulma went further by asking if they could instead take the objects to her home, with instructions to leave them in the front of a building that was labeled HANGER #1. She would of course give a generous tip to the handlers, to each of them. This caused the handlers to be very more than happy to do as she had asked.
With that complete, it was now Jen's turn as she took Danny by the hand and guided him towards the store she mentioned before- Ronalds Rage. The young lady blushed as she felt the warm, slightly rough hands of the young man. She knew that the hands were slightly rough due to fighting the bad supernatural side, and she wanted to hear his adventures.
When they got there, Danny saw that Jen's description about the store was correct as it was indeed loaded with all kinds of sports stuff.
The halfa hero was subjected again to finding some good sports clothing, which was thankfully not as much as the clothes shopping at the previous store. But Danny did choose some sports items like basketballs, new dart board & table tennis set to replace the ones at the compound, some board games & more. He wanted to replace some of the items that were not in good condition at his new home. He also bought some sports items that were meant for winter events like skies and even a snowboard.
Once the purchases were paid for & again delivered to the home of Bulma on her instructions, Emma took Danny to her store which was the Jose Ramiro's Radical Waves establishment. And like Jen and Angelica, she liked the feel of Danny's hand in her own, making it look like they were a couple which caused her to blush a little.
When they got there, they were greeted by the store owner that went by the name of Acosta Perez. And it was as Emma stated, that the store was chockful of items that were all meant for sand and surf.
Miss Mackenzie did manage to find some good swim trunks for Danny, which was a sea-green and blue splotchy color. Emma, Angelica and Jen did imagine Danny is said swim wear, which caused small blushes to appear on their faces. Of course, said young man was still dense as he did not notice that but thanked Emma for the choice in swim wear.
Danny also chose some beach items like towels, inflatable beach balls, inflatable chairs/objects to float around in… even a surfboard! While it would be unlikely that he would go surfing, one would never know. Emma was excited as this meant that perhaps in the future, she could teach him how to surf! Granted she was still a novice, but at least she had experience at it while Danny did not have any.
Again, the total amount was not as big as the on from Dress Seeker's Club. And once more, the purchases were taken to be delivered to the Brief abode.
Danny also visited some other places to get some other items. He got himself some accessories like a video camcorder with some blank video tapes, a regular camera with some film that was of the highest quality, batteries of various kinds, several large photo scrapbooks, several books that told in on how to properly do maintenance on a home & also many kinds of cleaning objects and items. Bulma admitted that they forgot to get some last time they were there, so now they were getting the various soaps and such for cleaning. Including items that was needed to clean and maintain the pool, hot tub and sauna.
It was about 11:55 a.m. when the group completed their shopping, and now they were on the 3rd floor. Danny, Jen, Angelica and Emma were waiting at a table while Bulma was getting the food from A-Beast 17. The eatery establishment had a good variety of choices, which also included salads for those that did not wish to eat meat. But even said salads had a kind of kick to it that made it enjoyable, and it completely natural with no kind of chemicals or such.
While they waited, Danny was looking around the place. He was still in awe at seeing anthro beings around with regular humans, even seeing a couple of anthro girl wolves that he believed his ghost friend Wulf would like to get to know! He looked to the three ladies and stated, "Man, this place is amazing! I bet the ones back home would love to be in a place like this.".
Jen smiled and replied, "I agree with you on that Danny. I know that Nikki and the others would get a real kick out of this place. And Jonesy would try to flirt with any of the women here, be they human or not.". She imagined Jonesy going out to try his luck with the ladies here, the young Garcia lad striking out… or running away from some female anthro tigers that did not like his personality.
Emma looked to the Fenton lad and inquired, "Is that why you brought the camera and video camera? To take pictures of everything so that we can take them back home with us?".
He looked at her, nodded and answered, "Yup. I'm going to write anything worthwhile in my journals, and also some video & picture mementos too. Also, you never can tell when a camera/video camcorder can come in handy".
Angelica was about to say something… when a piercing feminine scream tore through the air! The sudden and distressing noise seemed to have made everyone in vicinity freeze, many onlookers now turning their attention to where the scream had come from. Danny was automatically in action, rising up from his seat quick and running towards where the sound came from.
The young Pickles lass called out to him, but Danny was increasing the distance from them quickly. She sighed and stated, "Well, he's going to do what he does best. And that is play hero! Come on girls, let's see if we can help him out!".
Jen and Emma nodded their heads, rising up from their seat and following Danny. Bulma had arrived with a tray full of food and drink, seeing her new friends now rushing away. She called out to them, but they did not answer. Sighing in frustration, she set the tray down on the table and took off after them.
Meanwhile, Danny was zipping through the crowd as his lithe frame was enough to squeeze by the patrons. He soon reached his destination, in which she saw a large circle that was created by the onlookers & in the center of the ring was a young woman that was in a fighting stance against three burly male beings. One of them was human, two were anthros which was of a gorilla and yellow-black strip tiger. The human male was clutching his stomach, as if he had been hit hard in said area.
The woman had large, full and thick purple hair. Her skin was a beautiful milky white color, her eyes blue like sapphire, her lips full and the color of a red rose & her fingernails having the same color of her lips. Her body frame showed that was quite buxom and healthy, a cup size or so bigger than Bulma's. She was wearing a white shirt with the words in black letters SEXY on the front, and in the back was a large pink heart. She also wore tight blue jeans that showed off her long legs & white sneakers on.
The lovely lady was panting slightly, a smirk on her face as she exclaimed, "That will teach you to try and grab me like that, you jerk!". It would appear that the scream had come from her, but it seemed that now she was all about fighting instead of being a helpless damsel in distress.
The anthro gorilla sneered and exclaimed, "Hey! You can't hit our friend like that!".
The purple-haired beauty frowned at him and retorted, "Than you better tell him to not try to force me to go out on a date with him! He needs to learn some manners!".
The anthro tiger growled and fired back as he got in a fighting stance of his own, "And you need to learn some respect! Just because you made it to Quarterfinals in the 21st World Martial Arts Tournament doesn't mean much to us! Especially since you got knocked out easy by that Nam guy!".
That remark made the woman flinch, but she managed to hide it well as she got ready. The human man was starting to recover, slowly standing back to full height instead of hunched over.
Danny was joined by Angelica and the others, who were now looking on at the scene. Jen looked to the woman and inquired, "Hey, what's going on here? And who is the girl?".
Bulma's voice answered her, "That's Ranfan.". Danny and the others turned to see her, the blue-haired beauty besides Angelica.
Said young lady looked to her and asked, "Ranfan? Who is she? That tiger said that she was in the World Martial Arts Tournament.".
The heiress spoke, "She did. Ranfan there managed to make it the tournament, but I think it was more of her using her feminine wiles and seductive tactics to make her male opponents lose their cool before striking them out. She used that on her opponent Nam during their match, using the 'dainty damsel' trick to let his guard down and attack.".
She continued on, "When he saw through her ploy when she used it a second time, she… well… she stripped off her clothes and was only in her bra and panties to make him go all red and back away.". She blushed from embarrassment from remembering the memory, and the ladies plus Danny had stunned/shocked looks on their faces.
Angelica, Jen and Emma were blushing in the face as they too were embarrassed that Ranfan would go that far. They could not even imagine going THAT far in anything! Danny looked at Ranfan, and for a moment in his head, the image came up of her in a bra and panty combo. His mind went on hormone overload, and he was about to blank out from his whole body turning red… when something happened that made him snap back to reality.
The human male looked livid, ordering his friends to attack Ranfan! The two anthro beings roared as they charged in, fists raised and looking to beat her up! The wily seductive fighter merely smirked, dodging the punch of the tiger at the last second. She quickly pushed him to the ground, using his own momentum against him like so in a classic counter attack.
The gorilla threw a wicked right cross punch, one that could have seriously damaged the head of anyone it connected with! But Ranfan merely ducked underneath the punch & used her Heat Fist technique on him! She used air friction on her fist, which created some intense heat that put extra damaging power to her punch! The gorilla eyes bugged out comically as he felt the attack connect to his stomach, and Ranfan used the pause in attack to deliver a strong uppercut that sent the burly brute up a little before he crashed down to the floor.
Angelica and the ladies were impressed on the strength of Ranfan, Danny as well. But Bulma saw that it was average at best, something that would be easily countered in the martial arts tournament. She had been around real serious martial artist for some time now, she could tell which were real ones & those that were of amateur rank at best.
Ranfan had a very confident smirk on her face, becoming a bit arrogant in her belief that it was over. However, said belief was shattered when the human man that she punched earlier was back on his feet, a look of rage upon his face. Ranfan heard a primal yell of battle, turning just in time to see the fool coming at her fast! She managed to dodge the swift punch that had been aimed at her face, even though it was just barely. It would seem that the human male had some fighting experience with him, as he continued to throw punches at her, forcing Ranfan on the defensive as she dodged the hits. The crowd automatically back away to give the fighters more room, not wanting to be caught in this deadly crossfire.
The human male shouted in rage, "HOW DARE YOU STRIKE ME, YOU STUPID GIRL! DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM!?". He continued to throw some strong punches, but they were a bit wild and reckless.
Ranfan replied back while ducking a punch, "Yeah, a jerk with a big ego who thinks he can just touch a girl anywhere! And then demand a date from them, and if they say no, he uses force!".
The little defensive dance that Ranfan was doing would have gone on long… but her left foot hit the ground on a spot where a child had spilled a little of his sports drink, due to the mother and father pulling their child back that he would not get hurt in the melee that was going on.
Ranfan's foot slipped on the liquid, causing her to slip and fall to the ground! In addition, the loss of footing and twisting in the wrong way too fast caused her to sprain her ankle, pain shooting from the left ankle fast. Combine that with hitting the ground like so, Ranfan had a look of pain on her face… and also that she was quite vulnerable.
The man that had been fighting sneered in wicked delight, believing now that victory was at hand. Behind him, his two cohorts sneered and chuckled darkly as they rose up from the ground, apparently having recovered from being knocked down earlier. The man approached Ranfan, who now had a look of fear as she looked up at the muscled man. He cracked his knuckles and said evilly, "Now… let me teach you some respect for your betters.".
He raised his right fist, ready to bring it down on the martial artist. Ranfan knew that even if she blocked the hit, it would still land on her and she would get hurt. So she closed her eyes, bracing for the impact that was to come.
The big bully yelled as he was about to bring down his fist… until he felt something hard collide with the right side of his face! It was a fist, hard enough to smash his cheek in and send him down to the ground hard! He made a UGH sound from impact, both from the fist & from hitting the tiled floor.
The crowd gasped, and Ranfan opened her eyes to see on what had just happened. Standing to the side where her attacker had been was a young man that looked quite different from others that she had met. His left arm was stretched out, fist formed to indicate that it was he that had punched away the fool before he could strike.
Danny Fenton had just rushed in and saved Ranfan from what could have been a powerful strike!
The crowd was amazed, Bulma and the others joining in them. While Angelica, Jen and Emma had seen his alter-ego fight, they honestly had no idea what his mortal form was capable of. And now they were seeing it, as the young man had just rushed in and struck with amazing speed!
Danny had a firm look on his face as he looked down at the fool her just punched, and then at his two cohorts. He spoke in a tone that was even yet also full of righteous passion, "You know, a man should never hit a woman like that. Nor try to force something on her like so. Those that do that are pretty much scum that needs to be taught some manners.".
The surprised thugs quickly shook off said emotion, glaring at the brat who just hit their leader, going to him and helping him up. Once the human male was back on his feet, he gingerly rubbed the spot on his cheek where he had been struck. He glared at the teenage in front of him and stated with venom, "You're a little too young and scrawny to be playing hero there, boy! Go along before me and my boys here turn our attention on you!".
Danny stood his ground, feeling different… feeling defiant. Normally, he would tell them that he didn't want to start trouble, with Sam encouraging him to take the easy path away. But now, with her not being there & dealing with a person that was actually a bit worse than Dash… he was ready to finally stand his ground for something right.
He answered back, "I rather be young and scrawny than a bully who doesn't know any better. And also… heh, I have been in the hero business for some time. I know and believe it's better to stand your ground against fools like you than allowing what you're doing to happen.".
The muscled man sneered, thinking that they would have a better chance against him than against Ranfan. He was about to tell his cronies to attack… when he paused in his speech when he saw someone quite familiar to him stand beside Danny. He spoke in surprise, "B-B-Bulma Briefs!?".
Danny looked briefly to see that indeed, Bulma was standing on his left side. And hearing some movement on his right, he turned to see Angelica and the others, who joined in taking a stand with him. The Brief heiress frowned heavily at the muscled man and spoke in an upset tone, "Heh, still being a brute and a bully, eh Iwao Kin?".
Jen glanced to Bulma and inquired, "Bulma, you know this creep?".
The blue-haired folded her arms under her chest and answered, "Unfortunately. He is the son of the Kin family, one that does business with my family in selling and distributing Capsules. While his Dad and Mom are okay, this one here is nothing like them. A bully and a big idiot who thinks he is entitled to everything because of how wealthy they are.".
She continued with her tone like ice-fire; cool but passionate at the same time, "He tried to get me to date him, but I saw through his façade and rejected him. He tried to use physical force on me, but luckily one of my robot servants managed to stop him before he could hit me. He fled the scene quick, thinking I would report him which I did. The police filed a restraining order against him, and it still stands now.".
Iwao growled, seeing the one that he had a huge crush on due to only her beauty airing out the dirty laundry like so. He was about to say something… when he saw some people in dark blue officer uniforms coming towards them from behind Bulma! They were the Autobot Security Detail Squad, or ASDS for short. Highly trained men and women of security detail that was equivalent to that of seriously highly trained officers of a S.W.A.T. unit!
Seeing them come in, Iwao believed it was time for a tactical retreat… a.k.a., running away with their tails between their legs. He glared at Bulma, and at the young punk who dared to strike him like so. He called out to his companions, "George, Ty! Time to go!".
The anthros nodded, preparing to run away with their leader. Iwao knew that he was already in hot water with his folks, and also the law, due to his actions. If he stirred up trouble one more time and if it was big enough, his folks would disown him and disconnect him from the fortune! He could not let that happen, so thus the retreat for now.
The trio only got two steps when something fast and hard struck them in the heads, causing their eyes to bug out comically once again as the force was enough to make the fall down to the ground at the same time, face-first.
The audience looked towards Angelica, Jen and Emma who had their arms stretched out. The trio of lovely ladies had grabbed some nearby empty trays, taking quick but accurate aim & threw them like Frisbees! The projectiles landed with precise accuracy, and hard enough to make the fools stumble in their run & fall down to the ground.
The security detail, five in total, came on the scene just in time. It consisted of three men and two ladies, with one of the men older than any of them. Said man looked to be in his mid-40s, the others around in their early 20's. All wore dark blue hats, but the elderly one had a silver star like a sheriff's badge embedded in the middle of the hat for all to see.
The elderly one stopped besides Bulma, pointed his right hand to Iwao and his cronies and stated in a powerfully deep voice, "Secure the trash there and send to the Holding Room on the 4th floor. Also, collect enough testimony from eyewitnesses here.". The team nodded, the two ladies and one of the men going to properly arrest & secure Iwao and his cronies. The remaining two officers went around with notepads, asking some of the patrons around here for testimonies.
Danny walked back to the others, looking at the powerful-looking elderly officer. Said being looked at him, and even though for the moment he had a rough face that was similar to the rough & tough cowboy character Clint Eastwood… he soon had a smile that made him more agreeable. He saluted to them and stated, "Captain Nedrios, at your service. We saw what happened up in the security room, came as fast as we could.".
He looked to Danny and the ladies and added in, "Thanks to you two, not only did you save a woman's well-being, you also made sure to keep them here long enough so that they would not escape. I thank you all for that.". He shook Danny's hand, who returned the gesture with a firm handshake of his own. He bowed slightly to Angelica, Emma and Jen who nodded and replied that they were happy to be of help.
Among the noises, Danny heard groaning and turned to see that Ranfan was trying to stand up. He went over to her, soon above her and extending his hand out to her. She smiled softly and took said hand, Danny soon pulled slightly off balance due to gravity but quickly adjusting himself so that he did not stumble. He helped the young woman up, gingerly and carefully though due to her ankle still sprained.
He asked her with concern in his tone, "You going to be alright, Miss Ranfan?".
The buxom martial arts babe smiled, but it turned into a grimace as she tried to set some weight on her injured ankle. She kept it elevated now slightly, standing on one foot for the moment with Danny helping her keeping her balance. Ranfan answered, "I will be as soon as I find someone to treat my ankle…".
A kind, motherly voice called out, "I can help you, my dear.". The group looked up to see that coming towards them was an anthro female bear, wearing some casual clothing, She easily towered over the humans, but as it turned out, she was a gentle giant. She introduced herself as Naoki Shizuko, a retired nurse but still quite capable.
She knelt down and asked for Ranfan's injured ankle, which was given to her with care by Danny. The immense anthro woman gently touched the left foot, Ranfan wincing a little from the small pain that flared up. After a few moments of examination, Naoki spoke, "It's a sprain alright. Not too serious but it does need some medical attention. Fortunately, I do come prepared.".
This had Danny realize that they needed to pick up some medical supplies for the others back home, so he made a mental note to ask where a shop would be that sold medical items and such.
The giant female bear opened her purse, and pulled out some medical elastic bandages. She looked to the quizzical looks on the faces of the humans, smiling patiently and explained, "Though I am retired, I have seen that it does pay to be prepared for anything in case of emergencies. Be they mild or not.".
With expert technique, she wrapped the elastic bandages securely around Ranfan's ankle. It was soon done, the left ankle compressed and secured. The martial artist looked up to Naoki and said in a grateful tone, "Thank you very much for that, ma'am.".
Naoki smiled and replied, "It is my duty and honor, my dear. I have been a nurse for 35 years, and even I am retired, I never stop trying to help those in need.".
Nedrios spoke up, "You have my gratitude as well, Naoki-san. Thank you very much. And also Ranfan, would you like to come with me and my squad to the security room? We have some crutches that can be of help to you, and also we would like a testimony from you since it seems that everything points to you.".
Ranfan sighed but she smiled and answered, "I would like that Captain. And yes, some crutches would be useful until I can get back home.".
The purple-haired beauty turned her gaze to Angelica, Emma and Jen and said, "Thank you for giving those idiots a taste of those trays like that. If it wasn't for you, that jerk and his friends would have gotten away.".
Angelica smirked and replied, "It was nothing! I played enough Frisbee with my cousins and his friends to get the hang of throwing a tray like that.". Jen and Emma put in that they too had some experience when it came to throwing most things like a Frisbee as well.
Ranfan smiled, than turned her attention to Danny who was still holding her. She whispered to him, "And thank you my brave sir for stepping in when you did. Thank you for being a hero to me.". She was grateful to Danny who acted, unlike the other various patrons who had simply decided to become spectators instead of coming out to help her.
The young halfa hero smiled softly and replied, "It's no problem. I just hope that…". Whatever he was saying died when he felt the soft lips of Ranfan on his cheek, the young woman giving the teenager a kiss on his right cheek! The patrons still around started to take pictures of the scene with the cameras they had on them. Naoki and Nedrios spoke at the same time, "Oh my.".
And Angelica, Emma and Jen… they froze a little, stiff as they saw the kiss. While it was innocent on all accounts, they felt their hearts speed up a bit and their blood actually getting hotter. They felt the brief but intense emotion of displeasure, jealously and anger spiking in them. But again they could not figure out why this was so.
The kiss was brief, but it was such a warm and pleasant sensation that left Danny turning red in the face. And to make it more so, a red lipstick kiss mark was now shown on his cheek. A goofy smile was on his face, one that made Bulma and Ranfan giggle a little. The purple-haired bombshell spoke once more, "If only you were a bit older… well, you take care kiddo. And hope to see you again soon.".
She gently disengaged from Danny's hold, Nedrios taking her quick so that she would not use her left foot. The group said their goodbyes, turning and heading away with Iwao & his two goons following them as they were being handled by the other officers. Danny did a little wave to them, the goofy smile still on his face and looking cute/comical that made Bulma and also Naoki giggle at the display.
Jen took the opportunity to call out to Danny, snapping the young Fenton lad back to reality as he turned to see the displeasured looks on their faces. He had a confused look on his face as he asked, "Girls, what's wrong? Why are you so upset?". The trio just made a HUMPH sound and turned their backs to him, making the halfa scratch his head in confusion.
Bulma and Naoki saw this & the same thought entered into their heads, 'Like so many men, so dense. Oh well…'.
The large anthro bear put up her bandages and stated, "Well, time I be going along. I need to get some supplies for my husband and daughter back home, so this is goodbye for now. Take care, all of you.". She then went away, going to the elevator to take it to the Ground-floor.
The crowd was dispersing now, and the officers who took as many testimonies as they could, left the area as well to regroup/rejoin with their crew. Bulma looked to Danny and the others, the girls turning to look at her while the looks of displeasure from earlier were no longer there. Miss Brief spoke up, "Well, I think it's time we head over back to our table. I just hope that our food hasn't grown cold, and our drinks watered down…".
A voice came up, "If you are worried about that, then don't be!".
All turned to look behind Bulma, and coming to them was a young man in a dark suit. Over his heart area was a white name tag that showed the name in black letters JEREMIAH. He approached them with a kind smile on his face and introduced himself, "Hello there, folks! My name is Jeremiah Winston, and I am the manager of A-Beast 17. I saw what happened, and also was told that Miss Bulma here ordered some food for us. If you would give us a bit of time, we can redo your orders and it will be on the house!".
This surprised the group as Angelica asked in a surprised tone, "On the house?! Are you serious?".
He nodded his head and replied, "Very much so. After seeing all of you take care of business with those ruffians, especially this young man here in coming in to save the young lady, it is the least I can do for a hero and the heroines here.".
Danny felt a bit of good pride coming into his being, glad that his actions had a positive outcome and reward to follow. He felt proud, which was strange for him. Normally, any kind of good deed he did back home often came back with negative results and brought consequences rather than rewards. Sam would have gone off, telling him to just ignore the situation and let the authorities handle it.
But now… he did something on his own, something that did not involve him turning into Phantom to save the day. And… it felt very good to him.
He spoke to Jeremiah, "Thank you sir. We appreciate it very much.". The ladies also expressed their gratitude to the manager of the food establishment, making the young man smile and glad to be of service to them. He guided them back to their table, which their food was still there but now a bit on the cold side. But the manager and his chefs would remedy that soon!
As they walked, Bulma spoke to her new friends, "Until we get calls from Gaspar and Vicky, it seems that we might be staying here still for a while. So let's enjoy our time in the mall while we can!". Danny and the others nodded, Angelica and the others having cooled down now from what they saw Ranfan do to Danny earlier. They were a bit miffed though, but again could not figure out why. And when they would arrive back at their table, they would also do what they could to wipe the lipstick kiss mark that was still on the young man's cheek.
It seems that Danny's first time in West City is certainly one to remember for him and the others! From arriving to the Brief residence and meeting Bulma's parents, to becoming heroes at the mall as they saved fighter Ranfan from serious injury. And it seems that Danny is slowly but surely coming into his own as his potential is starting to show in his mortal form. While this is going on, what is happening back at the Red Ribbon Army compound? And what will happen when they hear about Danny and the others adventure at the mall?
Find out this and more in the next episode of Danny Fenton: A Chaotic Adventure!
{{Outro}}
The camera shows the scene of twilight as the sun is almost completely gone over the horizon. Credits roll on by to showcase the people who made the anime series possible.
A field is displayed that has several large domed Capsule Corp. houses, arranged in a circle with one in the middle slightly smaller than the others. The scene showed Danny Fenton at the doorway to the smaller one since it was his alone. He stretched his arms and went inside his new abode to relax, not knowing of his dates who were watching him as he went inside the home.
The camera showed that the ladies were sharing a Capsule home that could easily sustain 5 people comfortably. It went as follows:
Capsule #1 Home- Kim Possible, Alexandra Casoy, Sabrina Spellman & Jen Masterson
Capsule #2 Home- Gwen Tennyson, Diana Lombard, Violet Parr & Jenny Wakeman
Capsule #3 Home- Emma Mackenzie, Wendy Corduroy, Ginger Foutley & Cree Lincoln
Capsule #4 Home- Kara Kent, Vicky, April O'Neal & Felicia Hardy
Capsule #5 Home- Penny Proud, Phantasma, Spectra & Angelica Pickles
Capsule #6 Home- Daria Morgendorffer, Debbie Thornberry, Cleo Sertori, Gwen Honorine
Capsule #7 Home- Kitty Pryde, Makoto Kino, Barbara Gordon & Starfire
Capsule #8 Home- Musa & Katie Kaboom
The camera showed the ladies relaxing in their new homes, doing various things. However… the camera shows each of their faces & it shows that all of them have a certain young lad on their minds. Soon, a dream sequence starts that shows each of the ladies time spent with Danny so far in the new world they are on.
And it also displays some daydreams they have where Danny chooses one of them out of everyone else.
When the sun goes out completely and the girls see its getting late, the camera shows the ladies going to their rooms to get ready for bed.
As they start to get ready, the camera shows another dream sequence that features a certain girl with Danny; Kim on the Nimbus Cloud with Danny Phantom flying beside her, Makoto and Danny fighting various bad guys together, Felicia and Danny partying at a nightclub in one of the cities they visited, Kara Kent flying through the sky with Danny Phantom, etc.
The random dream sequences end, and the camera shows the ladies soon plopping on their own beds in their own rooms.
The camera shows the young ladies soon in Dreamland, each one having a pleasant smile on as they are dreaming of the future. The camera shows more scenes of their dreams; Phantasma grinning & running away with Danny as they found one of the Dragon Balls in a land of demons, Angelica holding tightly to Danny on an air bike as they rode above the ground but not high in the air either, Wendy Corduroy and Danny putting down some strange land pirates that they had run into, Katie Kaboom on a date with Danny at a romantic carnival that showed a Ferris Wheel that lit up in lights for them K.K. & D.F., etc.
The camera changes to go back to the real world, showing in slow changing sequence the ladies that are all dreaming of the young man they have come to really know & appreciate. They all know his good and bad sides, his good characteristics and flaws that he is trying to work on… and also his dedication to watching over & being there for them.
The camera finishes on Starfire, shifting to show Danny as he lies awake in his room. He is looking up at the ceiling, the camera changing to his Point of View as on the ceiling are the ladies faces in dream circles of sort.
The camera shows the faces of the girls in random fashion, and also showcases an action that Danny took with the girls during his adventures in the new Earth they were on. After that, the camera switches from his Point of View and goes back to show his face as he is deep in thought… on which lady he really does come to love more so than the others in terms of the romantic, long-term sense.
The camera switches from the restless Fenton boy back to the ladies, showing that some of them had blushes on their faces as the dreams they were having about the young lad was drifting towards more… daring territories, some quite bold & adult in nature.
The camera than changes to outside, zooming slowly away from the homes to showcase the stars that were now twinkling free and strong in the velvet black sky. The moon shone brightly… and within the moon came in the random picture of Danny's face holding one of the ladies close to him! A shooting star shot forth underneath the moon, as the final part of the credits showed.

(Author's Notes: And… cut! That is it for this chapter here! I hope you all enjoyed this.
Before I say or do anything else, I want to give praise and honor to the Lord. God, thank you once again for helping me with this chapter. And also Jesus, thank you for helping my family. We hit a bit of a rough spot, but thanks to your guidance and grace, we have recovered and getting stronger with one another. The times are still rough, since it is almost a year without my Dad… but with you with us Father God, we will be able to get through this. Thank you so much for everything Lord! Thank you!
I continue to hope and pray for this New Normal to be undone, and that the tried & true real-normal of the past that existed long before this COVID-plague nightmare started to return with full force. And also that said plague is truly eliminated and removed from the equation of life altogether, and that those responsible for creating such a terrible thing are brought to justice.
So Danny and the others have some fun and excitement in all areas; at the Brief residence, at the bank & now at the mall. And we see that Danny is slowly but surely realizing that he has potential in his mortal form, and one can only guess what will happen when he and the others start to do some serious training under Master Roshi when the time comes.
In the next chapter, it's all about the interaction between the ladies and the rest of the future Z-Fighters. Again, I believe in building plot and character development. It may be longer, but for me… the better route to take. Also again, great thanks and gratitude to Author Dreams Come True 996 for her amazing fashion expertise! Please look at her artwork at her DeviantArt account MarieAngel04, and review them. They are all excellent, clean and good!
Now for the questions! Ahem…
How do you think the others back in Danny universe are going to react when they see the kinds of dinosaurs in the DB Earth?
If Danny had a proper teacher to train him when he started out as a superhero, do you think he would be better or not than he was in cannon? And also, if you had the choice, whom would you like to teach Danny when it comes to the martial arts?
If you were in Danny's shoes, how would you react to Harumi showing you affection and trust like she did? And what would your answer be to Dr. Brief if he asked you to help with Spiny in dealing with check-ups?
What do you think of the security measures that were explained by Vicky and the others? What other measure would you suggest to them that they make in order to increase security for the Checking and Savings account?
What do you think of the sample clothing that Danny modeled for the others? If it was up to you, what kind of clothing would you have him wear?
At Ronalds Rage sports store, what would you suggest for Danny to buy? And at the Jose Ramiro's Radical Waves establishment, what would you suggest for Danny to purchase there that involved water areas such as lakes, rivers, seas, etc.?
At the Food Court, what would you purchase/order for lunch? And upon hearing the scream, what would your first reaction be?
During the fight between Ranfan and her attackers, how would you judge the fight? And would you help or not when you saw Ranfan slip, and Iwao about to strike her?
And finally this… if asked on what happened by the security officers, what would you tell them? And also, what would you be thinking after seeing Ranfan give Danny the kiss on his cheek?
And here is an optional Bonus Question here! If you saw Spiny the dinosaur waving to you and smiling like he was doing here, what would your thoughts be? Also, what would you recommend to Dr. Brief concerning how to get his dinosaur to cooperate when it comes to check-ups?
R&R, no flames, enjoy and leave LONG reviews!)
