Clean-up crews move about the field picking up smashed chairs and repairing the broken ground while EMTs tend to the wounded guests. Jack and Maddie talk to TV crews, and the faint sounds can be heard of Penelope Spectra alternately ranting and weeping about her ruined ceremony. A rather battered, but again normal looking, Vlad Masters and Danny stand together off to the side of the field watching.
Danny turns to Vlad with a skeptical expression, "I can't believe you're letting my dad take the credit for this."
Without turning from the field, Vlad arches one eyebrow and smiles cryptically. "The last time I checked, Daniel, this whole mess was the product of your father's obsession with ghosts."
Danny ponders that a moment, then nods in agreement, "Ok, good point...but," he scowls and points a finger at Vlad, "you've been toying with me, haven't you?"
Vlad turns to face Danny, eyebrow still raised, and responds. "Every one of your victories, Daniel, you have earned."
Danny's only answer is his own raised eyebrow and an "Umm...", followed by a finger pointing at the wreckage left of a former football field.
"Oh...that." Vlad nods in understanding, then turns back to the field again, smiling, "Just because you didn't accept my original offer, doesn't mean that I've given up on you."
Danny ponders that unexpected bit of information over for a moment, then shoots back, "Well, don't think this means I'll start trusting you."
Vlad smiles sinisterly, a hint of the old Vlad Danny knew so well returning to his face, "Don't think this means you should, Little Badger."
End.
