*After Phantom Planet.*
The crowd cheered as the meteorite phased through the planet. When Danny joined the others he was immediately hugged to death by his friends. He looked over to the other ghosts as they all glared at him.
"I don't really know what to say other than thanks. All though you all probably want to kill me later on."
"We did it for our world ghost boy, not yours." Skulker stepped forward, towering over him. "But you're right about one thing, I won't stop hunting you, and now that you're a hero, you are much more valuable." Skulker smirked and left through the portal with all the other ghosts.
"Good job Danny." Danny looked behind him to see his parents had walked up to him. Jack bent down and whispered in his ear. "Or should I say, son?" Danny looked up to his parents with surprise. All though they had proud smiles on their faces, Danny still tried to play it off that it wasn't him.
"I don't know what you are talking about Da- Um Sir." Maddy walked over to him and put a supportive hand on his shoulder. "It's okay Danny, we know." And with that, Maddy pulled her son into a hug. Danny hugged her back, grateful that his parents were proud of him, and didn't see him as a freak or whatever he had imagined every time he thought of revealing himself to them.
Danny looked over to the rest of the Amity Park Citizens. Jazz followed Danny's gaze and saw the worried look on his face. "Don't worry Danny, no one else knows." Danny sighed in relief and looked at his family. "Lets go home.
It had been two years since that moment. Danny became a national hero, Tucker became the youngest mayor ever in Amity Park, him and Sam were dating and there was no sign of Vlad Masters or Plasmius. Amity park was almost peaceful. Almost.
"Is that the best you've got welp?" Danny was blasted across the town, almost crashing into his statue. "Or am I too strong for you to beat?" Danny pushed himself up. As promised, Skulker kept hunting after Danny, and is constantly upgrading his ecto-skeleton, making the ghost harder and harder to beat each time.
"Come on Skulker, you know me. I'm always going to beat you, one way or another." Danny charged at Skulker and used his ice powers to freeze his jet pack, making the ghost come crashing down.
"AH it took me ages to rebuild that! You'll pay for this ghost boy!" Out of rage, Skulker started firing what ever he had at Danny, who was able to dodge most of the blasts until a huge net came over him. Danny tired to get it off of him, but was stuck, and Skulker was stalking towards him with a smirk over his face.
"Hey M! I could use a little help over here!" Danny shouted to someone he knew was near by. Skulker chuckled at his cry for help. "Call out as much as you want ghost boy, no one's going to help you. Especially that emo friend of yours. You. Are. Mine."
"Ninja Go!" Before Skulker could get any closer, a huge gust of wind came out of nowhere that almost swept him off his feet and what seemed to be a mini tornado came towards him. Danny grabbed the Fenton Furnace and sucked Skulker in whilst he was distracted. Once he put the lid on, Danny let out a sigh of relief that the fight was over.
A figure walked over to Danny and helped get the net off and held his had out for him. "You need to be more careful. Skulker is getting stronger and you have to keep your guard up. I won't always be around to save you."
Danny took the hand and pulled himself up. "Yeah I know Morro. And thanks." Danny gave the boy a small smile. "And what was that move you did just there? The tornado thingy?"
"That was an ancient technique known as spinjitsu. I could teach you it if you like?" Danny nodded eagerly. Danny met Morro about a few months ago. Danny was out patrolling the town, as he would do every other night, when he saw Walker trying to fight another ghost he didn't recognize. Danny helped defeat walker but the ghost, who he later knew as Morro, was badly injured. Danny took him to clockwork who helped heal him, and since then, the two had been close friends.
"Anyway, we better get Skulker back to the portal." And with that, the two flew back to Fenton works.
The next morning, Danny woke up with huge bags under his eyes. Not long after he sent Skulker back to the ghost zone, the box ghost decided to come out, and boy did he refuse to be sent back. It took both Danny and Morro all night to catch him and send him back.
"Danny! Breakfast!" Danny heard Maddy call as he unwillingly got out of his warm and comfy bed to find his clothes. Once he got dressed he made his way to the dinning room where he saw Jazz studying for an exam, and his parents inventing some new ghost hunting equipment.
"Morning Danny." Jazz noticed the bags and the tired look on her Brother's face. "Let me guess, Skulker?"
"Yep, and the box ghost. Skulker keeps upgrading his tech, so it takes a while to bring him down. Luckily Morro was there last night to help." Maddy looked at Danny with worry, knowing that this ghost hunting business and keeping the town safe was taking a toll on the boy. She wondered how he managed to keep his secret from them for so long. Danny quickly ate his breakfast and grabbed his stuff for school.
"Well, I've got to get going otherwise Lancer is going to give me another detention for being late." Danny said a quick goodbye to everyone before rushing out the door. Danny ran down the road until he came past a dark ally way. Danny didn't know why, but he felt a chill go down his spine, and a bad feeling came over him when he went past it. With his curiosity getting the better of him, Danny looked down the alley way, and nearly jumped out off his skin when he heard a menacing laugh.
It definitely wasn't a ghost, as he ghost sense didn't go off. He walked down the alley way, but froze when he saw someone standing there. He seemed to have pitch black skin, four arms, piercing red eyes that could look into his soul, and Danny could swear that he had a purple, dark aura surrounding him. Danny knew that this man, or thing was no good.
"Hey Danny!" Danny jumped out of his skin when Sam jumped on him out of nowhere. "What are you doing over here? Come on, we've got to go get Tucker. Is something wrong?"
Danny looked over to the man only to see that he was gone. "It's nothing. Lets get going." Danny looked down the alley way one last time before taking Sam's hand and going to get their friend.
"Just jump up kick back whip around and spin, and then we jump back, do it again. Ninja-Go!" The couple looked at their friend in both amusement and embarrassment as Tucker was full out singing and dancing to a song that he was currently obsessed with.
"Should we stop him?" Danny shook his head, getting his phone out to record it and to use the footage as blackmail later on. "Nah let him have his moment." Sam seemed unsure about it.
"I don't know. The last time Tucker got this obsessed with a song, the entire town got hypnotized by Ember, and I really don't won't a repeat of that." There were some moments from that time that the two would rather forget.
"Don't worry. I've looked into the song. It's called the Weekend Whip by The Fold. Apparently the band come from Ninjago, and it's a tribute to their heroes. I wish someone wrote a song about me." The two watched Tucker for a minute longer before he noticed the two of them standing there.
"Oh hey guys... How long were you standing there?"
"Long enough. Come on, lets get to school."
--
The trio walked to school, chatting about what they did over the weekend. With Tucker being the Mayor, his weekend was mostly filled with paperwork.
"I don't even know why I agreed to be mayor. And that reminds me! There's this inventor coming to meet me today from Ninjago."
"Inventor from Ninjago?" Danny gave his friend a confusing look. "Yeah. His name is Cyrus Borg. He's the mayor of Ninjago City, but he makes all these cool gadgets. Look, he even gave me this watch as a gift to the mayor." Tucker held his arm out to show a fancy new watch on his wrist. "And this model isn't even out in Ninjago yet. Sometimes being Mayor does have it's perks."
The three carried on walking to school, but Danny couldn't help but shake of this feeling that something bad was going to happen very soon.
