Chapter Eight: I'm Rob Phantom.
We rejoin or story with Vlad about to destroy Jack. Jack is laying on the floor, unable to move from Vlad's last attack. Danny and the others are unable to help him due to the collars and the control Vlad has, Vlad is powering up a huge ectoblast, ready to destroy Jack. Then suddenly ...then suddenly...oh darn it!
"What's wrong Robby?" said Ember watching TV in my story control room.
"I can't think of someone to come in and save Jack." said Rob Phantom sitting frustrated in front of his computer.
"Why is that?" said Ember.
"Because everyone else is either wearing those collars or captured, so there's noone to come in unexpectedly to save the day." said Rob.
"Why don't you just put yourself into the story to save them." said Ember jokingly.
"Put myself in the story? Put myself in the story! Ember you're a genius!" said Rob as he gave a happy cry and kissed Ember.
"Your just realizing this now?" said Ember.
"It's brilliant because Vlad won't see it coming, and it will give me the chance to kick his butt." said Rob.
"Glad I could help." said Ember as she kissed Rob.
"Ember, I need you to teleport me into the story, while I'm there you have to type out the story." said Rob.
"Are you sure this is a good idea?" said Ember.
"No, but it's the only one I got. But before I go I should change my ghost mode to something more intimidating, Vlad probably won't be scared by a jumpsuit." said Rob as he transformed into his ghost mode.
Rob decided to change out of the jumpsuit into a different set of cloths. He decide to wear a pair of black jeans with buckles on the sides and a chain loop on the right side. He put on a black t-shirt with his emblem on it, a R with a P in it. He put on some heavy duty combat boots, perfect for kicking bad guy butt. He put on some fingerless biker gloves and a black trench coat. Finally a pair of sunglasses to complete the bad boy look.
"So, how do I look?" asked Rob.
"Very intimidating." said Ember.
"Good, now activate the teleporter, I'm going in." said Rob as he stepped on to the transport pad.
"Be carful in there." said Ember as she gave Rob a hug and went to the controls.
"Don't worry, I will." said Rob as he was teleported away.
Meanwhile Vlad was about to destroy Jack. When suddenly a blast came out of nowhere and hit him, sending him flying into a wall. Everyone looked up to see the who had a fired the shot. They saw a young man leaning against the window frame, a young man with white hair and glowing green eyes. The look on his face seemed to say that he was here to break some heads, he then spoke.
"Hey Vlad, sorry to crash your party." said Rob.
"How do you know my name?" asked Vlad as he got up.
"Uh, you're the most evil ghost in the Ghost Zone, everyone has heard of you." said Rob quickly.
"Oh, of course, I am famous in the Ghost Zone." said Vlad, buying Rob's explanation.
"Good save Rob." thought Rob.
"Well what are you doing here?" asked Vlad.
"I'm here to kick your butt and make you pay for what you did to these people." said Rob as he jumped down from the window.
"I would like to see you try, you are a weak, pathetic child, where as I am a very powerful adult." said Vlad.
"Lets skip the talk and get to the part where I kick your creepy, old, guy who needs a cat, butt." said Rob as he got into a fighting stance.
"What! Does everyone think I need a cat? You want to fight? Then so be it!." said Vlad as he launched himself at Rob.
Vlad tried to punch Rob but he ducked under it, and with his foot kicked Vlad, knocking him off balance. Vlad flipped right side up and fired a beam from his eyes. Rob barley ducked behind a couch, and fired a ectoblast at Vlad. Who ducked behind a chair, at this point Valerie decided to kick Skulker in the place where it would hurt him the most, she then picked up her gun and shot Walker, freeing the president. Also, Jack had scrambled behind a overturned table, and was helping Rob fight Vlad. Valerie fired at the Fright Knight, sending his sword into the far wall. Soon they were firing at each other too. In the hall, Danny and company were hiding from the blasts being fired in the office.
"Who is that guy, and why is he fighting Vlad?" asked Sam.
"I don't know, but if he's fighting Vlad, he's a friend of mine." said Danny.
"We have to help him, but how?" asked Jazz.
"I'll go into the room, and try to talk to him." said Danny.
"How will you get to him?" said Maddie as a blast hit the wall outside the door.
"Ember, you have to fire some blasts to keep Vlad's head down so I can get over to our mystery man." said Danny as he pointed to the couch.
"But won't Vlad shock me for that?" said Ember.
"He's to busy to get the control out now, plus he probably won't remember who fired what." said Danny.
"Ok, here goes." said Ember as she started to fire.
"Good luck Danny." said Sam as she kissed him.
"Thanks Sam." said Danny as he entered the room
while Ember kept Vlad's head down, Danny rolled into the room. He managed to make it to the couch where Rob was without Vlad noticing. Then Danny spoke to the mysterious stranger.
"Hey, who are you?" said Danny.
"My name is Rob Phantom, and you must be Danny Phantom." said Rob as he fired at Vlad.
"How do you know my name?" said Danny.
"Your famous in the Ghost Zone kid, there are posters for your arrest everywhere." said Rob as he fired another blast at Vlad.
"Figures. What are you here for?" said Danny.
"I'm here to help you kick Vlad's butt and free yourself from those collars." said Rob as he sent a ecto orb at Vlad.
"How do you know about that?" asked Danny.
"That's not important right now, what is important is that we get that control away from him." said Rob.
"How do we do that?" asked Danny.
"I'll keep him busy, while you sneak up invisibly and take the control from him." said Rob.
Just then Vlad shot out of the floor and knocked Rob over the couch and into the open, but he did not notice Danny. Danny decided it would be a good time to put the plan into motion, so he turned invisible and started to sneak up on Vlad. Vlad and Rob were now facing each other in the center of the room, the fire had died down because both sides didn't want to hit their own guy. Rob and Vlad circled around, looking for a opening, then Vlad noticed the trail of red coming down the side of Rob's mouth.
"Blood? So you are a halfa." said Vlad.
"I guess you found out my secret." said Rob.
"That means I can kill you, just like any other human." said Vlad, smiling evilly.
"You can try, but you'll find I have a few tricks up my sleeve." said Rob as he disappeared.
"Turning invisible? That's your best trick? Come out and face me." said Vlad as he looked around for Rob.
He looked around trying to see where his opponent had gone, but he could see nothing. He looked around frantically, then he noticed a lamp near him. It shouldn't have been still standing after all the fighting that had been going on. He moved closer to the lamp to inspect it, there was just something wrong with it. Then from out of nowhere two green eyes appeared on the lamp.
"Ahhhhh!" screamed Vlad after seeing the eyes appear.
"Hey V-man, how's it going." said Rob as his arm grew out of the lamp and punched Vlad.
Rob hit Vlad directly in the jaw, knocking him down. Rob quickly transformed back into being a human. Vlad quickly scrambled back to his feet, and wiped the blood from his mouth.
"You mean you're a shape shifter too!" shouted Vlad.
"Yeah, aren't I just full of surprises? I can take any shape or form I want, watch." said Rob as he transformed into Maddie.
"I can look like any one I want." said Rob, then he transformed into a telephone booth.
"I can take any form I want." said Rob, then he transformed into Vlad.
"And lastly, I can have any power I want." said Rob as he used Vlad's duplication power.
"Who are you!" screamed Vlad.
"I'm Rob Phantom. And I'm your worst nightmare." said Rob menacingly.
"You may be able to change your form, but you still won't defeat me." said Vlad.
"We'll see about that, we'll see." said Rob as he changed his fists to iron and charged at Vlad.
Vlad threw up a shield to block the punches, but then Rob turned his arms into swords, with green energy flowing around them. Vlad tried to hold the shield but it failed, Rob tried to slash Vlad, but he ducked out of the way. Rob then turned into a ghost bear and knocked Vlad around. Vlad was being badly beaten, he was getting cuts and bruises everywhere, finally he got enough energy to blast Rob away from him. Rob was knocked back and turned back to his normal form, this gave Vlad his chance to get up.
"Ha! You will not defeat me Rob Phantom." said Vlad as he tried to stomp Rob's head.
Rob rolled out of the way and managed to get back up, he then turned to face Vlad.
"I think I will, because I've got a ace in the hole." said Rob.
"And what would that be?" said Vlad (Ember: he really shouldn't have said that.)
"This!" shouted Rob as he transformed into Dan Phantom from the movie the Ultimate Enemy. (Ember: See, I told you.)
Vlad was shocked at what now stood before him, the ghost that was not suppose to exist anymore. Vlad had sent Skulker to spy on Danny before the ghost scepter incident to look in his ghost files. There was pretty much nothing in them that he did not already know, but one file intrigued him. It said Dan Phantom on the cover, Vlad thought to himself that this must be a file on Daniel. He opened the file and was shocked at what I contained. It told of the horrible future that had almost happened, the accident with the Fenton's, Daniel's friends, and that Mr. Lancer chap. It also told of what had happened to Daniel, of how he came to Vlad, begged him to remove his ghost half. It told of the accident that happened when Daniel's ghost half ripped Vlad's out and merged with it, and the monster that was born of it. It also told of the strength of the ghost and how he had enough power to devastate the world. If this Rob had truly transformed into Dan, then Vlad was in big trouble.
"Oh butter biscuits." said Vlad, looking afraid.
"Now lets end this, shall we?" said Rob as he unleashed a Ghostly Wail.
Vlad and everyone else in the room covered their ears as the Ghostly Wail shock the building. Vlad received the worst of it because he was so close, he had to use all his energy to just stay in place. Eventually Rob's energy ran down and he could not stay as Dan anymore, so he turned back to his regular ghost mode. But fortunately it had been enough, for Vlad was completely dazed and confused. Danny crept up to Vlad and got hold of the controller, he was about to leave when Vlad noticed him.
"Daniel? Give me that back!" said Vlad as he picked Danny up.
Danny frantically looked for a person to throw the controller to, then he saw Rob.
"Hey Rob, Catch!" said Danny as he threw it to Rob.
"Why you! Give that back!" said Vlad as he dropped Danny and advanced on Rob.
Rob looked for someone to throw it too, then Maddie, Sam, Jazz, and Ember entered the room.
"Hey, blue haired girl! Catch!" said Rob as he threw it to the beautiful ghost rocker.
"Ember, return that to me at once!" said Vlad as he fly at her.
"No way old man." but before she could deactivate the collars she had to throw it to Jack to keep it from Vlad.
"You oaf, give that to me!" said Vlad as he advanced on Jack, he threw it to Jazz.
"Give that to me!' said Vlad.
This game of keep away continued for awhile. With Vlad and the Fright Knight trying to catch the control and Rob, Danny, and friends throwing it around. Even the president got involved in the game.
"Young American! Catch!" said the President as he threw it to Valerie.
"Stop this, it's not funny!" said Vlad as he failed to catch it again.
"I think it is creepy." said Valerie as she threw it to Tucker, since he had got up from being unconscious.
"Please, I beg you." begged Vlad as tried to get it.
"No way dude." said Tucker as he threw it to Jack.
"I demand that you give it to me now." said Vlad.
No way V-man, you'll never get this control." said Jack as he threw it.
Unfortunately Jack's aim was off and Vlad was able to jump up and grab the controller.
"Uh oh." said Jack.
"Aha, I have it, now you will pay." said Vlad as he prepared to push the electrocute button.
Jack was trying to think of a way to stop Vlad, then he remembered the Fenton Ghost Electronics Scrambler in his pocket. He pulled it out and before Vlad could press the button and activated the scrambler. A beam shot out of it and hit the controller, the controller sparked and fell apart. This caused all the collars to malfunction and fall off.
"No, what have you done, you'll pay for this." said Vlad as he prepared to blast Jack.
"I don't think so Vlad." said Danny.
Vlad turned around to see Danny, Rob and the others angrily looking at him, and the ghosts collars were gone.
"Your all free of the collars aren't you?" said Vlad.
The ghosts nodded their heads.
"And your all really, really mad at me?" said Vlad.
Everyone nodded their heads.
"And now your all going to beat the day lights out of me?" said Vlad.
"You must be psychic." said Rob.
"Get him!" said Danny.
All the ghosts and humans fell upon Vlad and started to beat him up. Vlad tried to escaped from the fight cloud, but he was dragged back in. The Fright Knight, seeing his master in trouble, waded in and dragged Vlad out. Vlad was bloody and his suit was tattered, and he looked to be in very bad shape.
"Fools, you may have defeated us for now, but we will return." said the Fright Knight as he put Vlad on his horse and fly off into the sky.
"Darn it! he got away." said Ember.
"Don't worry, he can run but he can't hide." said Walker.
"Now what do we do? We may have defeated Vlad, but his army is still attacking the city." said Valerie.
"Looks like we have to go and beats Vlad's army." said Danny.
"I think there is a easier way." said Rob.
"What?" asked Danny.
"Well if we can find a certain wish granting ghost named Desiree, we can fix all of this and leave Vlad with the blame." said Rob.
"Ok, lets find her." said Danny as they fly off.
They found her with Spectra, the Lunch Lady, Johnny 13 and Kitty, taking out their anger on Vlad's army.
"Hey, I think I have a way to fix all of this and put the blame on Vlad." said Danny.
"What is it ghost boy?" asked Spectra.
"Desiree just has to grant a few wishes without any bad luck." said Danny.
"Ok, if it will hurt Vlad, what are these wishes." said Desiree.
"The first one is I wish that the ghost army was gone and all the damage was repaired." said Danny.
"So you have wished it, so it shall be." said Desiree, the ghost army disappeared, the fires were put out, and the buildings that were damaged were repaired.
"Ok, for the second wish I wish that everyone forgot about the attack on Washington, but they remember Vlad attacking the president. He was saved by the Fenton's, with a little help from Danny Phantom. That way he will not be able to be a ghost in public without the threat of being shot at." said Danny.
"It is done." said Desiree.
"And third, I wish we were at Vlad's castle so we can do a little "home redecorating", if you know what I mean." said Danny.
"So you have wished it, so shall it be." said Desiree as they were teleported to Vlad's castle.
Several hours later Vlad and the Fright Knight arrived back at his home. Vlad looked down and was shocked at what he saw. The whole castle was blasted to rubble, and it looked like it had been set on fire. All the items in the home were smashed on the front lawn. Vlad stood there with his mouth hanging open, then the Fright Knight came up to him.
"Lord Plasmius, there were five notes on what was left of the door." said the Fright Knight.
He handed the notes to Vlad and he read what they said, the first was from the ghosts.
Dear dead man,
We will get you for what you did to us, and it will hurt. If you ever show your face in the Ghost Zone again we will blast you into pieces. And if you do enter, you better hope Walker finds you before the rest of us, because he only wants to throw you in jail forever.
Hating you forever.
The Ghosts of the Ghost Zone.
P.S. Get a cat while your still alive.
The next two note were from Jack and Maddie.
Dear former friend,
You will pay one day for kidnaping my family, you will pay. If I ever find you I'm going to us you to test all the really painful ghost fighting weapons. I swear if I takes me the rest of my life I will catch you in a Fenton Thermos and throw it into the deepest part of the ocean.
Wishing you were dead.
Jack Fenton.
P.S. you really should get a cat.
Dear creepy loser,
I swear that I will get you for hurting my babies. If you think you can get away with stealing my kids and get off scot free, then you are wrong. If I ever see you again I will use the Fenton Ghost Obliterator on you.
Never loving you.
Maddie Fenton.
P.S. get a cat!
The next one was from Danny, Sam, Jazz, Tucker and Valerie
Dear crazed up fruit loop.
Looks like yet agin we have foiled your plans to get Danny, mom and me to join you. We could say that it was fun, but what we really say is that it was a horrible nightmare of pain and misery. Danny says he will make you pay for kidnaping Sam, so watch out. Sam says she will rain doom on you for kidnaping her and using her to hurt Danny Valerie says she has a special ghost grenade with your name on it. Tucker says that he will get you for almost costing Valerie her life. And as for me, if I see you again I will us the Fenton Peeler on you, don't you ever show your face in Amity Park again or else.
Hating you always.
Jazz, Danny, Sam, Tucker, and Valerie.
P.S. research shows that cats are very calming.
The last note was from the man who ruined his plan, Rob Phantom.
Dear Vlad,
how does it feel to have all your plans fail once again. I'm sorry if I ruined your little dream of world domination, NOT! But seriously, do you really think that Maddie, Danny, and Jazz would ever join you, I mean you have the affection of a rock. You may be asking why you lost, and it's really simple. You're the villain, therefore you have to lose, it's the way the Universe works. I really had fun crushing your dreams, hope to do it again soon.
Laughing at you right now
Rob Phantom.
P.S. I'm the one responsible for all the bad stuff that happened to you, like right now, and get a cat.
(AN: author pulls the hurt Vlad lever, just to add insult to injury.)
Suddenly Vlad is covered in all manner of garbage, glue, feathers, and manure.
"Fright Knight." said Vlad.
"Yes Lord Plasmius." said the Fright Knight.
"Get the garden hose." said Vlad.
"Yes Lord Plasmius." said the Fright Knight as he ran to get the hose.
As the Fright Knight washed the junk off of Vlad, he had thoughts of revenge.
"I will make them all pay for this, I will have the family and the Empire I deserve, even if I have to devastate the Earth and the Ghost Zone to do it." thought Vlad as the Fright Knight Washed more garbage off of him.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Me: I'm back, did you miss me?
Ember: I sure did, you did it, you defeated Vlad. Ember kisses Rob passionately.
Me: It was awesome, I got to kick Vlad's butt, but it is good to get back to the control room, and Ember. Rob kisses Ember
Ember: Lets do something special to celebrate.
Me: We will, but first we have to let one of the reviewers pull the hurt Vlad Lever.
Ember: Oh, all right. Ember pouts.
Me: Since we have noone who offered to pull the lever for this chapter, I have decided to take up the offer of one of our reviewers, epobbp. She offered to pull the lever if noone else would. So here she is again, epobbp!
Ember: One reviewer coming up! We see a flash of light and Epobbp appears.
Epobbp: Hey Rob, how was the battle?
Me: It was great, Vlad got his butt kicked, and I got to hit him with a Ghostly Wail.
Epobbp: That sounds great.
Me: Now it's time for you to pull the hurt Vlad lever again, so here it is. The lever rises out of the ground.
Me: Are you ready?
Epobbp: I'm ready.
Me: Then pull the lever! Epobbp pulls the lever.
Me: Now lets watch. We see Vlad on the monitor, directing construction people who are rebuilding his castle. Then suddenly he is hit by a steel beam on a crane. It sends him flying through the air, he falls right into a pile of broken debris, he gets out of it all bruised and scratched up.
Vlad: Well, at least the horror is over. Then Vlad notices the cats, ghost weasels, and ducks have come back to hurt him some more.
Vlad: Oh why! The cats, ghost weasels, and ducks attack him.
Vlad: Not the face, not the face!
Epobbp: That was cool, thanks for letting me pull the lever.
Me: And thank you for being such a great reviewer. Epobbp is teleported away.
Me: And now for a message from me.
Well, Vlad is in a huge amount of trouble, he is in trouble for attacking the president. He is basically a deadman if he goes to Amity Park or the Ghost Zone, and his plans have once again failed. But it is not quite the end folks, I still have some loose ends to tie up with our favorite group of ghost hunters. If you want to see what becomes of our friends, tune in to see the last chapter of Vlad Strikes Back.
Ember: Now lets get to that special celebration I promised you.
Me: Sounds like a plan to me. Rob and Ember start to kiss and be romantic
Vlad: I will get you for this Rob Phantom, you can't escape me forever. The cats, ghost weasels, and ducks find Vlad. They chase him and he runs around screaming and tripping over tools and construction equipment.
Me: Until next time Danny Phantom fans, Read and Review!
