Danny watched as the three dragons slowly closed in on him. There wasn't much time left, so he had to think of a way to fight them. Unfortunately, since there were three, he was at a huge disadvantage. He could possibly take two at once, but that would leave him extremely vulnerable to attack from the third one. The dragons were now only a few feet behind him, so he had to think extremely fast now.
As the dark pink one was getting really close to him, Danny fired a blast of plasma energy at the dragon's mouth when it opened it. This caused the dragon to stagger backwards, but Danny turned around just in time to see the blue dragon taking a swing at Danny's head with its massive claws.
Danny formed a fist and punched that dragon in the stomach, but he smashed his hand instead of hurting the dragon in the process. As Danny tried recovering from hurting himself from trying to hurt the blue dragon, he saw the green dragon start storming its way toward him. Danny responded to this by flying up in the air as soon as the dragon came close and just barely missed the dragon as it took a swipe at him.
Now Danny was hovering in the air, but not out of reach from the dragons. The dragons continually took swings at him, and Danny was just barely able to dodge them all.
"All right, enough is enough," Danny said. Saying this, he fired some ectoplasma energy at the pink dragon, knocking it to the ground in pain. "And here's a little bit for you," Danny said, firing some energy at the blue dragon, and it also fell back in pain. "And some for you."
Danny fired energy at the green dragon, but it sprouted wings and started hovering in the air next to him. Danny's cocky smile turned to a shocked expression.
"Well, this can't be too good," Danny said softly as the flying green dragon started gazing upon him. Danny didn't waste any time after making that remark. He charged at the dragon and tried to fire some more energy at it, this time in the eye.
Danny succeeded and knocked the green dragon to the ground. The dragon started screaming in pain so loudly that Danny had to cover his ears and he temporarily squeezed his eyes shut without even realizing it.
As the green dragon recovered, Danny tried firing blasts of energy at all three of them separately, but after a while, the dragons caught on to his pattern. The blue one took a swipe at Danny when he had his back turned and knocked him to the ground.
As Danny smashed face-flat on the ground, he staggered to get up and saw all the dragons beginning to close in on him again. While still in pain from being smashed onto the floor, Danny got up and started firing one long blast of energy and started spinning himself around in a circle while firing it, hoping to be able to hit them all at once.
It looked like it would work for a while, but then all three of the dragons start firing and Danny could see they all planned on smashing into him at the same time. Not knowing what to do, Danny made himself intangible just as the three dragons were about to hit them. All three dragons bashed their heads into each other as Danny hovered out of them, still intangible.
"…or maybe I could have just escaped by going intangible," Danny said to himself, staring at the three dragons in great pain as they were crumpled in a heap together.
Saying this, Danny stayed intangible and passed through the sealed hole that he fell through to get into that pit. He flew out of it, and was back in the Maldum base. Although he didn't know quite where he was, he knew it couldn't be far from the room where Myrus and Cobaark were. Danny's main focus now was to find the machine Myrus was hooked up to.
After searching for a few minutes, Danny found the machine. He looked around to make sure there were no Maldums in sight, particularly Cobaark or Myrus. When the coast was clear, Danny ran over to the machine.
Struggling for the longest time, Danny grabbed all the wires and pads and tried attaching them to himself. Looking behind him, Danny saw the giant vat of glowing green goo, which was the final third of his powers that had been stolen from him.
Danny ran over to the machine and went out of ghost form. The white ring appeared around the middle of his torso and split itself apart, changing his black jumpsuit back to his casual, teenage clothes.
Danny tampered with the wires for the longest time. He wasn't sure which wires of pads were supposed to go where on what part of him, but he was hoping it wouldn't matter. On top of that, he could only hope that he was actually going to be giving himself the final third of his powers.
After all, when he saw Myrus hooked up to the machine, Danny was only guessing that those were his powers in the vat and that by pulling the switch, Cobaark was really giving Myrus all of Danny's stolen powers.
Finally, Danny untangled all the wires and placed all the pads and anything he could onto himself. When he was finally finished, there were pads on his arms, head, on the sides of his neck and one under his shirt.
Danny didn't bother putting himself on the table, he just ran over to the switch with the wires attached to him. Taking a deep breath and hoping for the best, Danny pulled the switch. Instantly, the machine started roaring loudly. Danny looked at the computer above the vat of green goo and saw the words DRAIN INITIATED scrolled across it.
Danny stared with his eyes full of hope at the green vat behind the computer. Danny was suddenly distracted by sharp pains in every spot a wire was attached to him, but when Danny was able to ignore it, he looked at the vat of green goo and saw that it was draining. Danny deduced that it was similar to a flu shot: the pains he felt was the pressure of all the material from the vat that was flowing into him. Danny only hoped that it was his powers.
After what seemed like the longest time, the vat was empty and the sharp pains stopped. The machine shut down and the large computerized words on the screen disappeared. Danny ripped all the wires and cables off of him and threw them to the floor.
Danny didn't know what to think. For some reason, he suddenly felt like he was stronger. He made one test to see if he really got the remaining third of his powers back: he tried to do a small version of his ghostly wail, something he noticed he couldn't do before.
Danny took in a deep breath and let out a creepy "woooooooooooooooo" sound as he let the breath out. Small seismic waves started emitting from his mouth, and the waves smashed all the computer equipment in the room, along with anything they came in contact with.
"Awesome!" Danny yelled. "That's it! I got all of my powers back!"
Danny was ready to rejoice with the fact he got all of his powers back, but then he looked around and saw the huge mess he made with his ghostly wail.
"Uhhh…maybe I should leave," Danny said. He went ghost again, and then went intangible. He flew his way out of the Maldum base, and as soon as he was out, he stopped going intangible and started flying back to the Esceron Base.
Danny realized something while he was leaving the Maldum base that made him feel really great then. The Maldums' plan backfired. There were trying to enhance Danny's power with the fake antibiotics and then steal the enhanced powers to use it against the Escerons. However, Danny was able to get two-thirds of his power back from the Maldums, as well as get the other one-third back from the Escerons. Danny stole back all of his powers, but since they were enhanced, Danny was now about 175 percent as strong as he was before the Maldums made him sick in the first place. And now the Maldums wouldn't even get to use those powers…the powers they spent so long planning how to steal.
"It's over," Danny thought to himself as he was flying away. "The hard part of this whole thing is over. I got all my powers back, and I know what side I want to help. Now all I need to do it use my news powers to completely maul Myrus and Cobaark, and it'll finally be over."
Little did Danny know the hard part wasn't over. While getting his powers back wasn't an easy task, he still had to do defeat Myrus and Cobaark. The catch is, the Fenton Thermos was still broken, so he couldn't just capture them. Danny was going to have to find some other way to permanently stop the Maldums and their dark vision over the Ghost Zone and eventually the real world.
Of course, Danny didn't think about all this as he was flying away. He just wanted to tell Raschenda and Vundeter the news that he got all of his powers back. However, Danny knew the ordeal wasn't over when he heard Myrus scream something.
"Release the dragons!" Danny heard Myrus scream from inside the Maldum Base.
