Ember slammed her fingers onto the guitar strings as Fang neared. The shockwave blasted the six armed ghost back into the mall's fountain. Skorp floated into the air and flew at them. His tail shot forward at him. Ember and Sam dodged and the tail impacted the wall. Sam held her hands up and blasted Skorp with a pair of ghost beams. Skorp flew back, but was otherwise unaffected. He chuckled, "My skin is far stronger than any ghost. Years of having to surviving without ghost powers will do that to you." He held out his clawed hand and a red beam shot from it. Sam ducked it. Skorp's tail swung around and slapped her down. Sam fell to the ground, but phased through it. Ember played her guitar and a red fist shot from it. Skorp slapped it away with his clawed hand, "Pathetic!" Skorp's tail wrapped around her and he spun her around. After several passes, he released her and she crashed through a store's window. Skorp phased and flew through the floor. Ember stood up and shook her head. She had crashed into a clothing store. Fang jumped into the store and attacked.


Skorp feet hit the ground and found himself in the underground parking garage. He looked around, but couldn't find the girl. There were parked cars everywhere, "Guess the humans were in a hurry." He smashed his claw into the hood if a car, "I will find you! I've tracked smarter ghost through forests and swamps. You think this concrete jungle will stop me." He floated into the air. He fired a ghost ray and it blew up a parked van. He destroyed three more vehicles, "I know you are here." He floated around the garage and stopped, he picked up the scent of perfume, "Bingo!" His tail shot forward and impaled a blue car's door. Sam phased through it as Skorp ripped the door off, "There you are!" He shot forward and grabbed Sam's leg with his real hand. Sam tried to phase, but Skorp phased as well. He brought his claw up and grabbed Sam's head, "I will crush you!"

"Not before my dance!" She yelled out and a green wave of energy exploded around her. Skorp released his grip and fell back. She phased through the ceiling. Skorp pursued.


Ember phased through the floor as Fang lunged at her. She appeared behind the ghost, "Good thing your an idiot." Fang's hands glowed with purple light. He spun around quickly and fired six beams at Ember. The ghost girl took the hit hard and was blasted out of the store and across the courtyard. She fell into another store. She stood up on shaky legs, "Damn!" She looked around and smiled, "She was in a music store." She held up her guitar and cords shot of it and connected with all the speakers in the store. Fang flew into the store and stopped. He mumbled as Ember played a power cord. The sound shot out of all the speakers. Fang grasped his ears with all of his hands as he blasted out of the store and into the wall on the other side of the mall. Ember sat down, "That was easy!"


Sam flew into the food court with Skorp on her heals. She jumped into a burger stand as Skorp flew out of the floor. He looked around trying to spot her, "I grow tired of all this hiding!" He snapped his claw in the air several times, "You think all this food will mask your scent. Clever!" His tail glowed green, "But I have sampled your ecto energy. My tail will find you." The tail hovered around and shot forward. The stinger impaled the counter and was only an inch from Sam's head. She quickly flew out of the stand and towards the courtyard. Skorp spun around and slapped her down with his tail. She landed in the large fountain. Skorp fired a ghost ray at it. Sam managed to scramble out as the ray blew up the top of the fountain. It exploded in a large pillar that soaked everything around it. The ghost laughed, "There is no escape."

Sam glanced up and saw the lights hanging from the top of the mall, "Maybe no escape, but you won't catch me!" She shot into the air and blasted one of the lights with her ghost beam. It fell into the water.

Skorp sighed, "Damn!" The light hit the water and it exploded in white lightning. Energy blasted Skorp out of the water and he landed on the second level. His tail quivered and stopped.

Sam wiped her forehead, "That was close."


Red tapped his foot, "They have managed to knockout my fighters. I will not stand for this."


In the park, two Dannys and two Burns fought. Energy bolts shot back and forth as the two clashed over and over. The Dannys merged into one and landed on the ground, " How is that?"

The Burns chuckled and merged together, "You are improving."

"So how is the wail coming?"

Burn shrugged as he floated to the ground, "I won't get it as I high pitched as yours, but it is still effective." Burn suddenly turned and looked into the distance.

"Something wrong?"

"I don't know! I just have this strange feeling." He floated into the air, "Come on!" He flew away. Danny scratched his head and flew after him.


Sam flew into the music store and returned to her human form, "I'm beat!" She looked around at the broken glass, "I see you tried to bring the house down again."

Ember was sitting against a display case, "You have a better way to stop an eight foot six armed ghost."

Sam shrugged and sat down next to her, "Now what?"

Ember sighed, "I rest! My power has been weakened."

"I'm kind of low on energy too. I just hope Red doesn't find us before we have a chance to recharge." They both saw Red fly into the courtyard, "What is he up to?" Sam stood up and slowly snuck towards the guardrail.

Red held both of his hands out and red beams of light shot from them. They entered the two downed ghost and purple beams of light shot from them to Red. The ghost yelled out as his skin turned purple and he grew in size. A second pair of arms shot out of his torso and he grew a large tail with a three stingers on it. Red landed on the ground and roared so loud that the mall shook, "Now their powers are mine." He looked up at where Sam was hiding, "Your mine!"

"Crap!" Sam ran back into the store as the tail smashed into the rail.

Red flew onto the second level and looked around. Sam had ran into a candy store. Red chuckled and walked into the store. He hated the smell of the candy and soda, "This place is repulsive." He smashed a plastic container and watched the colored gumdrops roll across the floor, "I have copied the powers of those two idiots and I will have yours." He took strong steps and crushed the tiled floor as he walked.

Sam hid behind the register as Red slowly walked around the store. His tail still near the entrance, 'I have to give Ember some time to recoup!' She tried to go ghost, but she couldn't even form the ring. She grabbed a small bucket of jawbreakers and waited.


Danny and Burn floated above the mall, "I knew something was wrong here." A green dome was covering the mall.

Danny floated down and turned human as he hit the shield. He dropped onto the roof, "I'll try to find the generator." He ran down the roof top stairs.


Red chuckled as he approached the register, "Found you!" He lunged at the counter. Sam jumped to her feet and slammed the bucket onto Red's head. The jawbreakers fell to the floor and the ghost tripped on them and fell down. Sam sprinted to the exit and ran down the escalator to the ground floor. Red phased through the floor and into the store under the candy store. He flew out of it and tripped Sam with his tail, "You will pay for your defiance." He brought his tail back.

"She is a teenager! She is suppose to be defiant." Danny Phantom grabbed the tail and flew up. He pulled Red into the air. Danny spun around and whipped Red into the ground. The ghost cracked the floor as he hit. Danny flew down and picked Sam up. He shot up to the second floor and set her down on her feet, "You alright?"

"I'm fine! My ghost form gave out."

"You'll learn to hold it. So what happen to Red?"

"He absorbs ghost powers."

"Perfect!" Danny watched Red pull himself up, "There is a ghost generator somewhere in the mall. You need to take it out so Burn can come and help me."

"Right!"

Danny watched Sam run off and then he flew at Red, "Nice look! Now I'm going to squash you like a bug." Danny spun in mid air and rammed his foot into Red's back. Red stumbled forward. His left arms shot around and grabbed Danny's leg. He slammed him into the floor and spun him around over his head. Red flung Danny across the mall. Danny managed to phase as he was about to hit a wall. Red shot into the air and followed.


Sam looked around as she tried to figure out where the generator was hidden. She spotted an electronics store, "Good place to start!" She ran in and looked around at all the electronic gear, "Great! Finding a needle in a haystack would be easier." She spotted a green glowing stereo on the far wall, "Or maybe not!" She couldn't find any power buttons. She reached around and pulled the wires from the wall. The generator sparked and shut down. Sam ran out and saw the green glow outside fade, "Yes!" She ran to the music store. Burn was already there. He was helping Ember to her feet, "Hey! Danny needs your help." Burn looked at Ember and then back to her. Sam sighed, "I'll help her. Just go!" Burn nodded and phased through the floor.


Danny landed on his feet as Red shot out of the wall. They were in a Karate Dojo. Red struck rapidity with his tail. Danny dodged each attack. The hole was full of holes as Danny dodged to the side and fired a ghost ray. It smacked Red in the face and the ghost stepped back. Danny shot forward and his fist sparked with green energy. He landed a punch into Red's jaw. The ghost fell down as Danny flew up, "Glass Jaw! Got to hate them."

"How about a grip like iron?" Red grabbed Danny with his lower arms and slammed him into the matted floor as he stood up. He picked Danny up and grabbed his arms with his upper hands, "No escape this time!" The tail reared back to strike. The tail shot forward. Danny managed to crane his neck and the stinger shot past his head. Danny put his hands together and green energy sparked from them. He yelled out and a sphere of energy exploded from them. Both ghosts where blasted back. Danny hit the floor as Red crashed into the mirrored wall. It cracked, but didn't shatter.

Danny stood up, "I guess that is about fifty years of bad luck."

Red sneered, "The only bad luck will be yours." His tail reared back to strike. Burn phased through the wall, grabbed the tail, and pulled it into the wall. Red pulled, but couldn't free his tail, "Let go!"

Danny flew up and slammed his palms together, "Hey Red!" A large green sphere formed in hands. A large beam shot from it. Red turned in time for it to hit him in the chest. Red was blasted through the wall and crashed into a hotdog cart. Danny flew out and landed. He pulled out his Fenton Thermos and captured Red, "That was fun!" Danny captured the other two ghosts, "Sam?"

"Up here!" Sam waved from the second story.

"I've got to get these ghosts back to The Ghost Zone! Will you be alright?"

"I'll be fine!"

Burn walked up, "Ready!" He pulled out his Portal Key from his coat. He pointed the metal stick and a green beam shot from it. A portal formed, "Lets go!" Burn jumped in and with Danny close behind.

Ember walked up next to Sam, "You fight pretty good for a human."

"Thanks!" Sam retrieved her bag, "And your pretty nice for a ghost."

"Don't get use to it. Burn and me will take both you and Phantom out when we take over the planet."

Sam smiled, "Look forward to it."
