Hello everyone. I'm glad you've taken the time to review this fanfic and tell me how awesome it is. I appreciate you guys telling me that you like this, because, as I've said before, it gives me motivation to continue. There also seemed to be a bit of confusion about the whole "175 percent stronger" thing, so let me try to make a bit of a comparison. Let's say you have one hundred dollars, and then you work enough to earn 75 more dollars. You'd have 175 percent as much money as you had when you started (I think). Bottom line, Danny is almost twice as strong as he was before he got sick, because the Maldums enhanced his powers and Danny stole his enhanced powers back.

Danny turned around and saw the three dragons he just fought come flying out of the Maldum base. Gasping at the sight of this, he went intangible, therefore making him invisible. He started charging towards the three dragons as fast as he could. Normally, he could only go about 112 miles an hour, but now he could go just shy of 200.
As Danny charged at the dragons going at breakneck speed, he began realizing how strong he really was now.
"This is…awesome," Danny said as he realized how fast he was going. "Well, I'd hate to be the Maldums now, because they have to get past me now if they want their shallow plan to succeed!"
Danny followed the dragons as quietly as he could to where they were going. He wanted to fight out if there was a secret lair or someplace like that where the dragons were being kept, or if the dragons were going someplace the Maldums wouldn't want him finding out about. Danny was trailing the three dragons as they were flying off, until a siren went off from the Maldum base.
"Warning!" the siren blared. "An enemy ghost is in the vicinity! Repeat, an enemy ghost is in the vicinity!"
Danny gulped and turned around. Outside the Maldum base, there were ghosts that dressed similarly to police officers coming out. They had dark lenses covering their eyes, along with having helmets and beating sticks that Danny thought were meant for more than just hitting people. The ghosts looked pretty nasty.
"There he is!" yelled one of the officers, pointing to Danny. Despite the fact Danny was intangible and not visible, the ghost soldiers still somehow saw him. It must have been the dark glasses they were wearing. "Get him!"
About six ghosts all started closing in on Danny. Danny knew that being invisible wasn't going to help him out, so he went back to his visible form and started staring at the ghost officers, coming at him from side to side. He was completely surrounded by them.
Feeling cocky about his newly enhanced powers, Danny almost welcomed an attack to see what he was now capable of.
"Six against one, huh?" Danny said, looking at the ghosts as they got ready to attack. "Well, we'll see about that…"
Saying this, Danny fired some energy out of his hand. The energy waves were now much thicker and Danny could tell that there was more power behind them simply from firing it. The energy wave hit one of the ghosts and sent him flying backwards with so much force that he crashed into the Maldum base and was knocked unconscious.
"Now this is cool," Danny said. He looked at all the other ghosts and started consistently firing energy at them, sending them all flying backwards in the same manner. After the other five were blasted away with little effort, Danny turned around and looked at the Maldum base. There were now over sixty troops standing there.
Danny's heart sank, seeing how he couldn't blast each individual ghost this time. The large quantity of guards started coming closer to Danny, and Danny could only float backwards and try to keep himself out of trouble. Then, he suddenly remembered something.
"Hey, you want a piece of me!" Danny yelled, encouraging the massive amount of ghosts to attack him simultaneously.
As all the ghosts started charging at him, Danny opened his mouth and started inhaling as much breath as he could. As the ghosts were only a few yards of him, Danny blew out the breath at all the ghost and tried to make a wailing sound like a ghost would make.
As he tried to make that ghostly wail, seismic waves emitted from his mouth again, but with full power behind them, the waves had the power of an earthquake that would surpass 8.0 on the Richter scale. All sixty of the ghosts were sent flying backwards with so much force, that some of them even got knocked out of Danny's sight.
When the entire place was cleared, Danny once again went intangible and started flying after the dragons. Since he was going at almost two hundred miles an hour, it was quite easy to catch up with them. However, Danny soon realized the way the dragons were going: to the Esceron base!
"Oh, no.." Danny moaned, realizing the dragons were going to be attacking the base of his allies. "Raschenda! Vundeter! I've gotta warn them!"
Danny started accelerating as fast as he possibly could. He easily passed the dragons as they flew towards the base, and because of his intangibility, he wasn't able to be seen by the dragons. Danny saw the Esceron base in sight, and he quickly passed right through the walls to the base.
As soon as Danny was inside, he turned visible again and ran around, looking hard for Raschenda and Vundeter. He needed to warn them that dragons were approaching and that their base was going to be destroyed by them if they weren't fast enough. Danny knew for a fact he alone didn't have the strength to take down the dragons all three were together.
Danny had to run to the top of the base to find Raschenda and Vundeter. To Danny's surprise, he wasn't feeling as tired or worn out or out of breath as he thought he would be. Apparently, getting all his enhanced human powers also gave him some longer lasting durability when it came to physical tasks. Battling ghosts right now was going to be much easier than it was before. But, right now, Danny had to focus on the problem at hand: warning Raschenda and Vundeter about the dragons and trying to fight them off.
Danny finally found the two in a dark part of the top floor of the base. They seemed to be talking about what to do in the war and they both seemed surprised to see Danny was right there.
"Guys, there are three dragons coming over here now!" Danny warned. "They're going to attack unless you guys help me fend them off!"
"What are you talking about?" Raschenda said in her cool, seductive voice. "Do you mean the shape shifting dragons?"
"Yeah, I think so!" Danny said. "They're pink, blue and green and came from the Maldum base!"
"That's them, all right!" Vundeter said quickly. "And they're coming here?"
"Yeah," Danny said. "If all three of us fought, I'm sure we could take them out. By the way, I got all of my powers back now and I've decided to fight for you guys!"
"Splendid!" Raschenda yelled. "But we can talk about this later. For now, we need to worry about to take down those dragons coming this way."
"Here they come!" Vundeter said, looking out the window and seeing the dragons as they came approaching the base.
Danny, Raschenda and Vundeter all went intangible and floated through the walls of the Esceron base. The three dragons started roaring when they came out of the base.
"Let's teach these dragons a few manners!" Danny said.
Instantly, the three dragons and the three ghosts started charging at each other. Raschenda, Danny and Vundeter all attacked one at the same time, and would have been able to take it down with no trouble. Unfortunately, the other two dragons posed as a bit of a distraction and attacked the three ghosts as they tried to take down one of the dragons.
Vundeter was blasted away by one of the dragons as it hit him as he was hitting the pink one. He got thrown back and started falling, almost unconscious through the depths of the Ghost Zone. As he was falling helplessly, Danny swooped down and grabbed him and waited for Vundeter to regain consciousness. When Vundeter was able to think straight after a moment or two, he gave Danny a quick nod and went back into battle.
Vundeter and Raschenda were now fighting all three of the dragons while Danny was floating a few yards below them. He took careful aim and fired his ectoplasmic energy at the pink dragon. The dragon got knocked backwards in pain, giving Raschenda and Vundeter an extra moment to attack it.
The two started viciously attacking the pink dragon while the green and blue ones approached Raschenda and Vundeter from behind and got ready to tear them to shreds with their claws.
Danny, seeing the two dragons ready to attack his new allies, had to take action, and fast. He fired two consecutive shots of energy at both of the dragons, enough to send both of them flying backwards.
Raschenda and Vundeter knew Danny just saved them for a moment, but they were two busy trying to beat the pink dragon to say anything.
Danny started charging upwards and gave the pink dragon a hard punch to the face as soon as he was eye level with it. The pink dragon moaned in pain and it barley seemed to have any energy left in it. After being beaten (literally) almost to death by Raschenda and Vundeter and getting a few blasts from Danny and then a punch to the face, the pink dragon could barely stay conscious any longer. Raschenda, seeing that the dragon wasn't going to last much longer, put out her hand in front of its face.
"Enough of this!" Raschenda said. She fired some of her own ectoplasmic energy out her hand and into the dragon's throat. The energy was blasted down the dragon's throat and roasted its inner skeleton. The dragon screeched in pain, and then turned into a heap of ashes from the blast.
The other two dragons, now fearing they'd be overpowered, started fleeing for their life. They flew out of sight, and left Raschenda smiling at herself for killing the pink dragon. Danny and Vundeter flew up to her.
"I don't think he's going to have the guts to mess with you again," Danny said. "That was awesome! I didn't know you could kill a dragon like that."
"A dragon is nothing more than a human," Raschenda explained. "Now that there are only two left, we had better talking about what to do next. After all, killing one dragon is only a victory for the time being."
