Dan Phantom burst from the remains of the Fenton thermos and rose high into the air, stretching his cramped arm and leg muscles. After he was done he looked down at Jazz, who was staring at him with fear in her eyes, then behind him, to where the Observers and Clockwork were floating, all three of them were surprised by his escape. He wore a feral grin on his face as he said, "Ah, thank you so much for freeing me from that Thermos."
Clockwork was the first to react to Phantom's escape by bringing up his staff. However Phantom anticipated this and quickly flew down to him. He ripped the staff away from the ghost and threw it over his shoulder, where it clattered against the floor. He blasted Clockwork in the chest with his green ecto-ray, making the time-controlling ghost slam against the wall behind him which knocked him out. Phantom smirked as the Observers looked at the unconscious Clockwork then back to Phantom with terror. They suddenly disappeared in a flash of green light, leaving Jazz alone with him.
"Lets see, Clockwork is down and out, the Observers have fled. That means only my dear sister remains." He turned around slowly and looked at Jazz who was frantically searching for something in her pocket. "So tell me, why is my dear sister visiting this old spook so often?" Jazz ignored his taunt and pulled out the Fenton ghost gun/lipstick. Quickly aiming it at Phantom she fired and a green laser shot out. The shot hit the ghost in the stomach but he just brushed it off as if it was nothing, which, to him, it was. "Now is that any way to greet your brother?" She had the courage to glare at him, but there was still fear mixed in with the hatred. "Your not my brother! Danny will never turn into you!" He floated down to her. "Ah, but he did, and I'm gonna make sure he does again. Even if I exist out of time, it wouldn't hurt to have another me around now would it?" Jazz had backed away from him as he floated down to her level, but she eventually ended up with her back against a wall.
"Now, how to make sure you don't foil my plans this time." He thought for a moment before bringing up a glowing hand and aimed at her. " How about we just remove you from the picture altogether." Before he could release the ecto ray he had charged in his hand, he was attacked from behind by Clockwork who slammed into him and threw his hands over Phantoms eyes and yelled over to Jazz. "Hurry! Go get your brother!" She nodded and ran over to the screen and went through.
Jazz appeared back in her room and landed on her bed. She quickly ran out of the room, down the hall and stairs to the Fenton family room, where Danny were enthusiastically playing a video game. She ran over and grabbed him by the collar of his shirt. She had started to drag him back towards the stairs when he exclaimed, "Hey! Whats the big deal!" She looked over shoulder while still trying to drag him. "Clockwork is in big trouble, we got to hurry!" He looked surprised for a second before he said, "Wait, Clockwork is in trouble? How do you know that?" Sam and Tucker came out of the kitchen to see what the commotion was. She groaned out loud and kept trying to drag him. "I'll tell you about that later, we have to go now!" Seeing that she wasn't about to relent, he nodded. She let go of him and he stood up. "Okay. But how are we going to get there?"

Back at Clockworks tower, Dan Phantom had managed to get Clockwork off him and had the ghost pinned to the wall with ectoplasmic goo around his arms, and neck. "That was a pretty brave thing you did. But I'm afraid it was for nothing." Before Phantom could taunt the poor ghost anymore, he was once again attacked from behind. But instead of some one plowing into him, he was hit by a green ecto blast that made him stumble forward a few steps before he regained his balance. Enraged he turned around and saw young Danny Phantom floating behind him with another blast ready in his hand.
"Well, well, well, look who finally showed up." Phantom grinned at his other self. "Though, I expected you would have brought your two side kicks along with you. And where is Jazz? I'm sure she would have come back." Danny gave a small smile. "They're here, somewhere." Phantom suddenly got a foreboding feeling and looked behind him expecting to see someone besides Clockwork behind him. But no one was there, not even Clockwork. He turned back around and saw that Danny had disappeared as well.
He saw something run past him in the corner of his eye, but when he turned to look, nothing was there. "So, we're going to play hide and seek now?" He saw another shadow run along the other side of his vision, "Alright, I guess I get to be 'It' then." He flew in the direction the previous shadow was running in with a malicious smile on his face and an evil glint in his eyes.

A/N: That really wasn't longer than my other chapters is it? Sorry about that. But hey, I think this chapter is my best yet! By that I mean it isn't as fast paced as the others. What do you think?
