Beyond Life and Death
I don't own Danny Phantom.
Chapter 15: Life after Death
"Well, well, well," the Necromancer implied upon seeing the two of them standing in the doorway. "This really is a treat. The two of you have somewhat survived."
"The best part about it is we can at least end your plans," Danny stated.
"Danny!" Jack yelled as he recognized his voice. However, the Necromancer then spread out his hand and a green dome appeared over the tables where they were being held captive.
"Let them go!" Sam yelled.
"Now, now. We don't need any damage to come to my goods." The Necromancer then saw Sam's new body and said," I see you have become a ghost. Wanting to join up then?"
"Not even in your dreams."
"Even so, I wasn't going to offer such a thing. My new world has no need for such…destroyers."
"And while we're on the subject: Haven't you seen what the consequences of this idea?" Danny asked.
"By consequences…how do you describe them?"
"Murdering humans just to bring over more killers who will bring about the end of humanity! Are you just braindead to that!" Danny yelled.
"No need to yell my boy. That's only a price to pay for the beginning-"
Of What!" Sam interrupted the Necromancer's sentence with this yell. "Sure, living forever would be good, but people want choices. You can't just force them it become a new species!"
"Yes I can. With the Ghost Zone over your world, all access to the afterlife will be nonexistent. I just want to introduce the human race to a new afterlife without punishment."
"Haven't you learned about ghosts being able to die. When a ghost die, they go to Oblivion. Nothing is there. Believe me, I know! You can't just tell people, 'Here's immortality. No sickness, period. However, you can kill each other and send each other to nothingness. So please don't do that.' It doesn't work like that!" Danny stated.
"I have had enough. I think its time for you two to go to Oblivion. And Danny, you can show Sam all of it before I took over your ghost body. Have fun!"
With that, he fired a huge Ecto shot at the two. They quickly flew into the air as the shot hit where they had stood only moments before and left a huge fissure. Danny then turned his head to then quickly block a punch sent in by the Necromancer, who had hovered off his platform and had charged at Danny. Danny retaliated with a right cross, which the being easily dodged. He then grabbed Danny by the collar of his jumpsuit and threw him into far wall. Danny hit the wall with a crash and sent dust and stone flying.
Sam then moved in and managed to get the Necromancer with a shot to his stomach. The ghost only just looked down at her and smiled. He then tried to give her and uppercut, but she flew quickly moved back to avoid it. He then went in for another punch, but she also dodged this one. She then went in for a roundhouse kick, which the Necromancer ducked under. He then fired off one an Ecto blast that knocked her right into the dome that was over the team. Lying face up against it, she watched as the Necromancer quickly flew down to where she was. As he looked at her. He then raised his right hand and a blue orb formed around it, which then sprouted a blade.
"I hope you find death painless," he said. But, instead of bringing it down upon her, he spun around just then. Danny, Who was behind him and sporting a green blade, had attempted to bring it down upon him. But, the Necromancer had caught the blade and the two of them were then locked.
"Be grateful that I'm only using own," the Necromancer said as he kicked Danny in the stomach and sent him flying. Danny recovered himself and blocked one of the Necromancer's swings. He then went in with one of his own, which the Necromancer countered. He then tried an overhead swing, which Danny also blocked. Danny then tried to stab the Necromancer, who managed to block that as well. The Necromancer then furiously let loose a barrage of slashes at Danny. Danny had to quickly dodge these blows as they were coming into fast top block. One of the slashes contacted the orb o his hand and shattered it and the blade. Smiling, the Necromancer then lifted his hand and shocked Danny with a burst of green electricity. Danny cried out as his body was beginning assaulted with the attack.
With Danny, locked down the Necromancer began to prepare to move in and finish Danny off. Just then, he was hit by an Ecto blast that broke his concentration. He turned around to see Sam with her arm raided and glowing green. Before he could retaliate, he forgot that Danny was freed of his attack. This allowed Danny to give him a kick to his back that sent him right into the ground. Him and Sam then fired off two powerful Ecto beams that connected with the Necromancer and sent him going faster into the ground. When he made contact, the two beams also connected and a green explosion emitted from where he had landed.
"You learned quick," Danny commented on the job they had done.
"Well, I watched the best work," she said as she looked over at him.
Danny smiled, but the moment was ruined as the Necromancer then suddenly reappeared in front of them. The worst part of it was that he didn't have a scratch on him.
Laughing his head off, he asked, "Haven't you learned all ready? I am the greatest ghost to ever come into existence. And do you still believe that you can beat me?"
"You bet," Danny stated. Him and Sam then both fired off Ecto beams at the Necromancer once again. The Necromancer knocked them away effortlessly. He then fired off two shots of his own that sent Danny and Sam flying back into the ground. Upon hitting the ground again, the Necromancer laughed again.
"Even when you see the odds are against you, you continue to fight. That is really pathetic. Anyways, you're wasting my time. I have a race to transfigure," the Necromancer stated. He then floated to the middle of the room and placed himself in the center, below the hole in the ceiling. His body then became engulfed in white light. He outstretched his hands and lifted his head up to the ceiling. The orb then focused into a white beam that shot upward through the hole, through the shield over the city, and hit the sky. Anyone looking at this event, namely the military personal and press still outside the barrier watched as the white beam then began to tear at the sky. A crack with purple in it then began to form and slowly began to become even bigger.
Sam and Danny had just recovered from the attack to witness what the Necromancer was doing.
"Damn! We're too late!" Sam yelled.
"There's one way to stop him," Danny stated.
"How?" Sam asked.
"Are you afraid?"
"I died. Why should I be?
"What we're about to do could be worst."
"At least you'll have me."
Danny nodded and said," Just follow my lead."
The two of them then flew straight at the Necromancer. Upon reaching him, Danny grabbed his left arm and Sam grabbed the Necromancer's left arm.
"Will you just give up? I'm still going to bring about a new era," the Necromancer stated as he looked at what they were doing. Just then, Danny's body begin to glow with green Ecto energy. Likewise, Sam did the same. Both of their energies then began to surge into the Necromancer's just then and began to wrap around him.
"What is this?" the Necromancer asked, his voice now full of panic.
"I little something I learned from my battle with Vlad. A high concentration of ghost energy can short out anything," Danny replied.
"You would risk doing this? Risk your family? Risk your friends? Even the world?"
"We'll just have to find out."
The Necromancer then screamed as his body became infused with the strange energy mixture. Then, the white began to expand and spread ou8t, covering everything around Danny and Sam.
"Is this it? Is this the end?" Sam asked.
"You do trust me, right?"
"You know I do."
"Nothing bad is going to happen. I can assure you. This is only the beginning. I would do anything to protect this world…and you."
Sam and Danny smiled and floated towards each other. Their hands then met just as the brilliant white light engulfed the two of them.
Some time later…
"Tucker! Wake up!" Jazz yelled as she shook him by the shoulders.
His eyes shot opened and at first were blinded by the light. Soon enough, they focused and showed him Jazz's face.
"What?" he asked.
"Thank God," she said as she helped him get up. Looking around, he could see Jack and Maddie also raising.
"What's going-?" he stopped all at once upon remembering what had happened back at Walker's prison. He looked up then to see it. The thing was that it and the portal opener was gone. Not only that, but the sky showed no trace of the green energy shield. He took a look at the area of the city in front of him, but there was no sign of debris.
"We won!" Tucker yelled as he jumped up. "Then Danny and Sam-"
"No Tucker," Jack interrupted," they didn't make it. Most of their energy was converted to save us and wipe out the Necromancer."
"But, that means they're in Oblivion. Right?" Tucker asked, worry on his face.
"Tucker, they did what they had to do. If it wasn't for them, everything would be gone," Maddie said.
"I know."
"At least they went down doing what was right. We can at least remember them for that," Jazz stated.
They looked up at the clear sky, the one that had seemed to be gone for so long. Maddie then said," All right, we better head home."
Everyone turned around, but then Tucker said, "Wait."
He motioned his hand towards a bench on the side of the road. Everyone walked over and saw what Tucker was motioning to. On the bench was Danny's old black hoody and Sam's purple hair ribbon. On the hoody was a note that read:
We'll be around.
Jack picked these two items up and after staring at them for a while he smiled. So did everyone else. They had a feeling now that Danny and Sam weren't dead. Maybe they were and maybe they were not. At least they knew they were with them.
And Tucker looked up at the sky and thought, (I'll see you guys around too.)
The End.
There you go. My next work will be coming soon. Later!
