Ok, this chapter should focus mainly on Evan, but we know most of the things that happen, and I don't need to go into full detail with everything he does in the chapter. I will try to make him main focus like the episode has done, but there will be other things happening that will have nothing to do with him or his videotaping. I own nothing, but I wish I did.
Evan looks down at the report in his hand as the bell rings for class to be over. He grabs his bag and gets up out of his seat. He turns around and sighs, "Man, Professor Xavier is going to ground me for the rest of my life."
"Mr. Daniels," Evan turns his head to the teacher, "could we talk for a moment, please?" The teacher stops writing on the chalkboard and turns his attention to Evan. "Admittedly, I asked for a report on the star wars program. However, I wasn't talking about the movie."
"But I like movies." Evan said trying to brighten the mood.
"Which is fine." The teacher put his hand on Evan's shoulder. "But I was expecting a report on the National Defense System."
Evan closed his eyes. "Yeah...I sort have found that out by my grade." He looks at the teacher and asks, "Hey, look man, is there any way that I could make this up? Extra credit? Anything?"
The teacher put his hand on his chin and thought for a second. "Perhaps there is something." He opened the drawer to his desk and pulled out a video camera.
"Whoa, a digi-cam, how cool is that?" Evan asked surprised.
"You know Evan. Current events can mean a lot of things. Including things that are important for people your age. They don't have to be huge. They just have to mean a lot to you. How would you like to do a film report on that?" The teacher gave him the Digicam.
"You mean it?" Evan asked grabbing the Digicam.
"You got it. Here, the project is due at the end of the week." The teacher turns back to the board and grabs some chalk. "I suggest you get started."
"Hey, I'm on it, and thanks for the second chance, Mr. V." Evan waved goodbye and walked out the door. "Cool instant rewind, digital zoom." He went over to a window and started to record the area around there. He started to look at some buildings then stopped at the institute. "Hey, I can even see the institute from this thing." He zooms in and catches Logan pulling in with his motorcycle. "Wow!" Logan takes off his helmet. "Hello Logan."
"Evan!" Kurt said grabbing Evan by the shirt.
"Hey!" Evan brought the spikes out of his arm and knuckles and saw Kurt. "Man, don't scare me like that. I almost toothpicked you." Evan brought his spikes back into his body.
"Sorry, the image inducer's on the fritz. I got to get back to the institute before someone sees me. That means missing our shop class." Kurt said hanging on the wall outside.
"Hey, no prob, I'll catch it on tape for you."
Kurt climbs up the wall and says, "Cool! Den I'm out of here." Kurt teleported away not knowing that he and Evan were being watched by someone not too far away from their location.
Sometime later Evan started to record what was going on in the hall. "And action." He zoomed in as Kitty, Rogue, and Danny came around the corner.
"Ah didn't swipe that stupid novel." Rogue argued to Kitty.
"Oh, right. Like, I suppose it just got into your gym locker by accident?" Kitty asked frustrated.
"You loaned it to Kurt, and he loaned it to me. Ah was going to give it back." Rogue started to walk away.
Kitty ran up to her and said, "Oh, right. Like..." She bumped into someone. "Oh, sorry." Kitty said nervously. "Could I be any klutzier?"
"No problem. Let me help." The guy said starting to pick the stuff up that he and Kitty dropped.
"She falls for every hot guy in the school now." Danny whispered to Rogue.
"Ah noticed as much as you have." She whispered back to him.
"Hey I feel like such a dork. I mean, I really should look where I'm going." Kitty said helping the guy pick stuff up.
"And enter the love interest." Evan said behind the locker.
"What are you doing?" Aelita asked making Evan jump and turn around to look at Aelita who was standing there with a smirk on her face.
"Don't do that Aelita. You nearly gave me a heart attack." Evan said turning the camera back onto the situation with the three.
Aelita looked down at the camera and asked, "Why are recording their conversation with a video camera?"
"I find this very interesting to watch. Plus, this is for my extra credit project as well." He looked back at her and cringed when he saw the smirk on her face.
"I told you that you should have done it on what I found instead of the movie."
Evan sighed and rubbed his neck with his free hand while the video camera kept on recording their friend's conversation. "Alright, I know I made a mistake going with what I did, but you can't blame me for doing it. I'm not an overachiever with school projects like you are."
Aelita shrugged, "I'm not an overachiever either Evan, but you should know what a teacher means when they are talking about history that happened in real life and that happened in a fictional movie."
Evan turned back to the camera to see Danny looking straight at him with a raised eyebrow and muttered, "Well, at least I did the report on something instead of ignoring it completely." Aelita walked away from Evan's position and went up to the group. She watches the unknown guy leave the trio and hears Rogue say, "Just when ah thought you could not get any more pathetic."
"At least I've got a hope of getting the cast, unlike you." Kitty said pointing at Rogue.
"Time to get up close and personal." Evan said zooming in at the girls.
"What's this whole thing about?" Aelita asked curiously as she crossed her arms.
"They're arguing over a play." Danny muttered to her while the two girls were arguing. "First they're arguing over a book, and now it's about a play since Kitty found the guy putting posters up cute."
"Hey, what are you playing at Porcupine?" Rogue asked glaring at Evan who was hiding behind a locker videotaping them
Evan's eyes widen. He lowered the camera and said, "It's cool." He gets up and shuts the locker. "I'm just doing an assignment for Vandermeer's class." He told them as he walked up to them with the video camera in his hand down next to his leg.
"Ah better not see my face on that tape, or they're going to be calling you Spyke-less." Rogue said hardening her glare at him
Danny shook closed his eyes and sighed while Kitty shook her head. "Rogue, you need to calm down." Danny said.
"Why should ah calm down?" Rogue yelled at him.
"He's right. You just, like, yelled in his face." Kitty said to her.
"Ok, don't worry about the tape. So are you girls going to audition for this?" Evan asked trying to change the subject.
"Well I am." Kitty said then turned to Rogue smiling.
Rogue smiled back evilly. "Yeah, me too."
The girls turn their faces away from each other then look at each other and smile. They turn their heads again and walk away. "Cool. Oh, yeah. Character conflict." Evan said looking through the video camera as the girls left. He turned the video camera to the poster and said, "Now that's what I'm talking about."
Danny shook his head and chuckled, "Dude, you are weird."
Evan shut the digital camera off and raised an eyebrow at Danny. "Why do you say that?"
"You decided to video tape two girls, who happen to be our friends, having an argument over a play." Danny said with a deadpanned look with his arms crossed.
Evan shrugged, "So what's the big deal? I don't see any harm...Oh yeah, you and Rogue are dating now." He smacked his forehead with the palm of his hand. "I still find it hard to believe that you guys are together."
"They haven't officially tied the knot." Aelita reminded Evan making Danny sigh in defeat with his head down. Aelita put her arm on Danny's shoulder. "Sorry Danny, but until you guys actually kiss and tell everyone you guys are together; I might stop teasing you about this."
Danny glanced at Aelita and asked, "Are you trying to help my relationship or destroy it?"
Aelita smirked and walked away. "I guess it matters how you see it."
Danny groaned and watched her leave. "Evan, no matter what you do, you better make sure that information does not get into the wrong hands, or we're going to be in trouble." He told Evan.
Evan gave him a thumb's up. "No problem man. I can handle it completely."
Danny shook his head. "I hope you do Evan." Danny walked away leaving Evan by himself.
"Yeah, I needed that reminder. I should be a little more careful." Evan said rubbing his neck before walking off to his next class.
Danny walked to his truck and stopped when he felt someone watching him. He looked up in the direction he felt it and narrowed his eyebrows when he didn't see anything out of the ordinary. He shrugged his shoulders and got into his truck. He drove off to the front of the school to pick up a couple of his friends unaware of the person keeping an eye on him. "A boy with more than two mutant powers is definitely worth the hunt. His ghost like abilities will really prove my worth of being a mutant hunter." The man said smirking at his new prey. He turned his head to see another boy leaving on his skateboard and watched him ride off before turning his attention back on Danny. "Yes, it would seem I have fallen into a small gold mine full of them."
Aelita and Rogue got into Danny's truck with Aelita getting in the back seat and buckled themselves up. "I still cannot believe you would do that just to get back at Kitty." Aelita said to Rogue making her sigh.
"She blamed meh for stealing something that belonged to her. It isn't my fault that she misinterprets what really happened." Rogue replied back crossing her arms over her chest.
"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Danny asked cautiously. "I mean I think it would be great for you and Kitty to be a part of the play, but you guys do not need to be fighting over all of this for a part in the play."
"Well, you can look at it like this." Aelita started making the two listen. "If Rogue and Kitty get in the play, then we don't have to worry about anything bad happening for the play."
"Ah get yah point." Rogue muttered crossing her arms over her chest.
"Anyway, is there anywhere you girls need to go, or are we good to go home?" Danny asked trying to move the conversation to something else.
"I need to go back to the Institute and finish the rest of that book." Aelita told him making a small holo-screen appear in front of her. "Plus, I'm also helping with the sound system for the play as well, and I need to make sure everything is ready before the first rehearsal."
"Ah need to buy the cd with the soundtrack on it for me to know what Ah'll be dancing to for the play." Rogue told him making Danny sigh.
"I'm starting to wonder if I'm just someone who people try to get a ride with." He looked up at his rear view mirror and asked, "Do you need to go anywhere Kitty?"
Kitty raised her head up and smiled nervously, "Actually, I need to get the soundtrack of the music too."
Aelita glanced back at Kitty then patted the other seat in the back. "You might as well get in here then." She told Kitty.
Kitty phased into the seat behind Danny and asked, "Are you mad I stowed away in the back?"
Danny shook his head and sighed, "I'm not mad Kitty, but it would be nice if you asked first instead of catching a ride."
"Hey Danny, can I catch a ride with you guys?" Evan asked as he rode his skateboard up to them.
"I thought you were going to go skating back to the Institute." Danny said raising an eyebrow.
Evan got off his board. "I was, but I get this weird feeling something is watching me, and I never get this kind of feeling even at the Institute." He told them with a serious look on his face.
"You too huh?" Danny asked before pointing at the back of his truck. "Go ahead and get in the back. We'll be stopping at the music store before heading back to the Institute." He told Evan as he got into the back of Danny's truck.
"Hey, I don't mind. Plus, I find this as a good opportunity to get in some good shots of our group outside of the school and the Institute." Evan pointed out putting the digicam into his backpack.
"You're worried it might leave your hand?" Aelita asked raising an eyebrow at him while looking out the back window.
Evan nodded, "Yeah, I might leave it out if I was skateboarding, but I don't want anything to happen to this just in case something bad were too happen."
"You, like, can't be completely serious about being watched, right?" Kitty asked not believing what she was hearing.
"He isn't the only one feeling like we're being watched." Danny told them as he drove out of the school. "Something is out there, and I think Aelita might be able to find out."
"I'll do some searching when we get back to the Institute. There are too many eyes around for me to do it around here." Aelita told them as they went to the mall. "Plus, the chances of our watcher coming out to meet us today are pretty low."
"Ah sure hope yah right." Rogue muttered turning her head back at Aelita who nodded with reassurance.
The figure ran and jumped from building to building in the city following the truck as it sped down the street. He stopped when he saw the vehicle heading towards the mall. He frowned at the idea of attacking them at the mall. The man grabbed the knife from the holster on the back of his belt and muttered, "He's outsmarted me today, but I will be back for him later." He turned around and walked away smirking at the idea. "The hunt has only begun mutant boy, and it will only get even more exciting once you start revealing you mutant powers to me." He put the knife back in the sheath and glanced back at the mall. "Plus, your friends will be an added bonus." He chuckled as he left the scene unaware of another figure nearby noticing him.
"Hm, a mutant hunter, this just made my day." The other man said grinning evilly showing his sharp teeth.
After everyone returned back to the Institute, everyone left to do their homework, to prepare for rehearsals for a play, or to finish something else not related to school. Aelita closed the book on her desk and sighed, "Well, I'm done with that finally." She put the book away on the shelf and got up from her seat to stretch. She looked out the window and noticed how dark it was becoming. "Hm, there's still enough time before heading off to bed." She muttered grabbing her phone off the desk. She left her room and walked her way to the kitchen.
In the dining room Danny slammed his geometry book closed and sighed in relief leaning back in the chair. "I hate numbers." He muttered before getting up from his seat and grabbing his book off the table. He left the room and made his way to the stairs in the front lobby just in time to see Aelita making her way down the stairs. "Hey, what are you up to?"
Aelita looked at Danny as she made her way down the stairs. "I just finished the book for Tony and decided to see if I am able to use my friend's abilities from Lyoko in the real world." She told him as she got to the bottom of the stairs.
Danny raised an eyebrow, "You plan on doing that tonight?"
"I only want to see if I can use them. I'll train tomorrow if I can use them." She told him making him shrug.
"Eh, I got nothing better to do." Danny said gesturing for her to lead the way.
Evan groaned when he heard his alarm go off. He got up and hit the button on his clock. He hit the button again when it didn't turn off then slammed his fist down on the clock when it didn't turn off making the alarm stop. He got up in his bed and stretched his body from the relaxation. When he stretched his arms he accidentally shot two spikes out of his wrists and watched them crash into the mirror and the light bulb which was making a small sound of sparks. "Oh man, not again." He put a hand on his head while shaking it.
He heard a knock on the door. Storm opened the door and said, "Up ant at 'em little man. Breakfast in ten, and what's this?" She pointed at the video camera.
"It's a school project. I'm recording current events from the Evan Daniels perspective." Evan said to his aunt happily.
"I don't mind the Daniels perspective..." She walked into his room and grabbed the spike in the wall that crashed through the light bulb. "But I don't think a Spyke-eye view is such a good idea."
He closed his eyes then looked at the mirror saying, "Uh yeah, I see what you mean."
"I think you better let us look at your film before you turn it in." She grabbed the digicam and looked at him again. She put it down and asked, "Understand?"
"Yeah, sure Auntie O." Evan shrugged. She nodded and left the room for him to get ready for the day.
Later that day, Danny and Aelita were standing in the Danger Room with Wolverine and Cyclops watching from the control room. "Ok, I hope you guys know what you are doing especially you Phantom." Wolverine told the two.
Aelita made two katanas appear on her back making Logan raise an eyebrow. "When did you program those weapons into your arsenal?" Cyclops asked curiously.
"They were always in my arsenal, but I've never tried using them until now." Aelita told them as she pulled the two katanas out of the sheaths. She got into a battle stance making Danny raise an eyebrow.
"Do you even know how to use those swords?" Danny asked not knowing if he should feel threatened by her or the weapons.
Aelita shrugged, "I'm about to find out. I'm just glad you can phase through them."
"Let's see what you got Guardian." Wolverine said through the microphone.
Aelita shook her head. "I told him to call me Angelic Code." She mutters before running at Danny.
Danny watches as Aelita swings her swords at him only for him to take a step back to avoid the swings. Aelita nearly falls from the swing and gets back into a fighting position. She swings one of the katanas at his feet making him jump a bit. She swings the other katana at him only for him to move to the side making her groan. She starts swinging the katanas rapidly at him making him sigh and grab her wrists.
"Aelita, are you trying to hit me or make a fool of yourself?" Danny asked rhetorically.
Aelita sighed and released her katanas. "I know I have no idea how to use them Danny, but I've watched a friend of mine do it all the time. Ulrich always known how to use them, and I thought I could use the same moves he did just from watching him." She told him.
Danny released her wrists and grabbed one of the katanas. "I'm no weapon expert, but even I know you should learn how to use a weapon before using two of them." Danny told her swinging the katana a couple times.
Aelita closed her eyes and sighed, "Yeah, I see your point and get that I need proper training, but Ulrich is in France, and we don't know anyone else who knows how to use a sword."
"Then we'll just wing it." Danny told her with a shrug. "Plus, I think it might be good for some of us to learn how to fight with weapons in case our powers are gone."
Aelita raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why would our powers be gone?"
Danny shrugged, "I want to be prepared in case it ever happens. Plus, we don't know what could happen anyway."
Aelita crossed her arms and asked, "Are you afraid something might happen?"
Danny rubbed the back of his neck and looked away. "Would I less of a man if I told you that I was?"
Aelita giggled and slapped his arm playfully. "I wouldn't think of you anything less than who you are." She told him before grabbing the other katana off the ground. "Now, how about we see what kind of training you have with a katana?"
Danny and Aelita got into battle stances smirking at each other. "I hope you're ready to get humiliated again."
Cyclops and Wolverine watched as the two clashed the katanas with each other. "Are you sure this is good idea?" Cyclops asked curiously.
Wolverine gave Cyclops a glance and grunted, "I hate it when you have to point out the obvious. They aren't going to learn how to protect themselves if we keep babying you guys."
"Is it even wise to have them fighting each other with swords when they have no training at all?"
Wolverine groaned and pressed the button on the control panel. "That's enough you two. You can't go against each other when you have no training for it at all."
The two look up at the control room after they jumped back a bit from each other when they clashed the swords. "Well, we can't get any training if we don't have anyone to teach us." Danny retorted making the pair sigh at the statement as Aelita nodded in agreement.
"You want training?" Wolverine asked as he pressed another button making the guns come out of the walls and point at Danny. "Then go ahead and train Phantom."
Danny widened his eyes in surprise and smiled sheepishly. One of the guns fired a laser at him making him close his eyes and put the sword in the direct spot the laser fired making it bounce off the katana. Danny opened his eyes and blinked when he heard the laser deflect off the katana making him smile nervously. "Uh, I got lucky?"
Aelita shook her head and sighed, "Well, I have no argument there."
Wolverine made the guns fire a couple more shots at him only for Danny to react immediately and deflect both shots with the flat surface of the katana making Wolverine grin. "Hm, it seems Phantom might have a new mutant ability." He had the guns fire some more shots at Danny in a normal fashion and watched as Danny block every shot coming at him. "With proper training Phantom's weapon adaptability will be dangerous." He muttered.
Cyclops scratched his head in confusion and asked, "Logan, what exactly is going on here?"
Wolverine chuckled, "Phantom unlocked another mutant power called weapon adaptability. His mind has the basic natural known fighting knowledge of using the weapon he got his hands on."
"How can you tell?"
Wolverine pointed down at Danny and said, "Most expert swordsmen cannot block or deflect that many lasers being fired at him. Of course those who can do it have had many years of training to do what Danny is doing right now."
The lasers stopped firing at Danny making Danny keep his guard up with narrowed eyebrows and a smirk on his face. Aelita stared in surprise at the situation and muttered, "I've seen Ulrich do that on Lyoko but not that fast."
"Wouldn't Danny's unnatural speed have any help with this new mutant power?" Cyclops asked with his arms crossed over his chest.
Wolverine watched as the laser guns went back into the wall. "Probably, but Phantom never held a sword his whole life." He turned around and walked to the elevator. "I'm going to talk with Charles about this. You can go ahead and tell them training is over until further notice."
Cyclops watched Wolverine leave then looked out the window to see Danny and Aelita still in uniform with the katanas in their hands talking to each other. "You guys can go ahead and go on with whatever you guys have planned for the day. Wolverine left to talk with the Professor."
Danny and Aelita looked up at the control room and nod their heads before leaving the room. "We're not ending our training session are we?" Danny asked her quietly.
Aelita shook her head as they were out of the Danger Room. "Of course we are still going to train. Plus, I only have one thing I need to do, and I don't need to do it until later since Tony is pretty busy."
"Where should we practice then?" Danny asked curiously as they transformed back to their civilian clothes.
"I got a good idea." Aelita waved her hand to follow her, and they left the locker room unaware of what was about to come.
"Are you sure of this Logan?" Charles asked surprise written all over his face.
Logan nodded having the mask of his uniform hanging on his neck come up and down as well. "I'm positive Charles. Phantom has no training when it comes to the sword, but he used it blocking all the lasers coming at him with little effort. He has weapon adaptability, and he needs proper training for it."
Charles intertwined his fingers and sighed, "This could cause a problem if the others find out Danny got another mutant ability."
"It's already a problem Charles. Danny is getting stronger and stronger with his powers everyday which is bothering the others making them feel like they're falling behind. Aelita is already finding ways to evolve herself, and Elf is already testing his teleporting abilities to make him go even farther in range and wants to have another way to protect himself." Logan told him while crossing his arms. "The others know they have limits with their powers, but they're starting to get jealous of Danny's growing power."
Charles sighed heavily in agreement. "Why is this happening Logan? Daniel is a great kid with many talents, but his strength is starting to go beyond most of our control to even teach him."
"What about his telepathic block?"
Charles closed his eyes and put his head down with a small sigh. "It's fully developed making me unable to communicate with him telepathically anymore. I'm starting to worry if he knows about Magneto."
"He isn't telepathic Charles."
"I know, but he can possibly develop it like most of his other abilities. His flight is in full control, and his intangibility is developed to the point where he can phase any part of him without any effort."
Logan looked at the fireplace and asked, "Do we not tell him about the ability then?"
"We don't have full concept if it is completely true like you told me, but we will need to tell him before he finds out on his own. I'm just thankful Danny hasn't inherited a high IQ."
Logan smirked, "The kid is one of the most clueless people on the planet, but he has a spirit for knowing things when it comes to fighting."
Charles looked at the fireplace then at Logan. "Keep monitoring Danny and make sure he actually has the ability before we make any rash decisions. We can't rush into believing he has this mutant power until we see him use other weapons."
"I understand Charles." Logan said before leaving the room leaving Charles alone in the room.
Charles sighed, 'I started this school to teach them to get the basic way to control their powers and to help them make the right choices.' He looked at the picture of the team on his desk and stared directly at Danny. "What is making you evolve so much more than the rest of Daniel?" He asked himself knowing there was no answer at the time.
Danny and Aelita stood in the field outside the city each holding a katana in their right hand. They got into battle stances and smiled at each other. Aelita ran at Danny and swung the katana at him having him block the attack. She kept on swinging the sword at him with him blocking every swing coming at him. She jumped back a bit and sighed, "How do you know where to block my swings?"
Danny shrugged, "To be honest, I just watch you where you swing and block the attack." He looked out of the corner of his eye and saw someone's shadow in the distance making him narrow his eyebrows. "We got company."
Suddenly they heard something being fired twice, and Danny put his force field up blocking the shots fired at them. "Good reflex. This will make the hunt worth my time even more." The man said as he stepped out of the shadows for the pair to see for the first time.
"Who are you?" Danny asked narrowing his eyebrows at the man who was wearing different types of weapons and camo clothing.
The man smirked, "My name is Skulker, the greatest mutant hunter in all of history." Skulker smirked as he saw the surprised looks on their faces. "That's right, I collect the heads and the powers of the mutants I kill, and my collection will feel more complete when I have you two in my collection."
The two make a disgusting look at Skulker in fear. "Well, it was nice meeting you, but we need to go." Danny said taking a few steps back making Skulker chuckle.
"Yes, why don't you two lead me to where the rest of your mutant friends are so I can have them join the collection?" Skulker asked smirking at the two as they looked at the man in surprise. "Yes, I know who they are already mutant boy, and I plan on getting them just like I will with you two."
Danny and Aelita transformed into their hero clothes and watched as Skulker have a ray gun appear on his arm. Skulker fired the laser at the two, and they jumped away to avoid getting shot. Danny fired an ecto-blast at Skulker only for it to bounce off a force field Skulker already had up. "Well so much for my ecto-blasts." Danny muttered putting a force field around himself to block the laser fired at him.
Skulker pulled a sword out covered with a green glow making Danny narrow his eyebrows. "I studied your mutant powers boy. This will neutralize most of them."
Danny steadied the katana in front of him and muttered, "We'll see about that."
Aelita stood behind a tree with her holo-screen in front of her. She got all the machines that Skulker had on his person making her sigh when she realized there was very little machinery. "Great, this is going to be harder than I thought." She muttered with a small sigh.
"Where are Danny and Aelita?" Logan asked as he walked into the living room. Jean and Kurt looked up from the television at Logan with curious looks in their eyes.
"I saw dem leave earlier." Kurt answered pointing outside.
"Where did they go?" Logan asked knowing where the conversation was going.
"Aelita told us they were going to the park." Jean said not knowing where this was going.
Logan growled angrily and turned around heading to the garage. "I am going to kill them."
Kurt and Jean watch Logan leave the room with confused looks on their faces. "Vat do you zink zey did?" Kurt asked her curiously.
Jean sighed and turned the television off. "I don't know, but it isn't something we need to worry about. I'm going to my room." Jean said leaving the room.
Kurt looked at the television then out the window. He teleported onto the roof of the Institute and muttered, "I might not know vat zose two are doing, but zis will be totally worth it." He teleported into the front lobby just in time to see Scott walking down the stairs.
Scott stopped twirling his keys around and raised an eyebrow at Kurt's sudden appearance. "Uh, Kurt, where did you just come from?" He asked curiously.
"I just teleported from the roof." Kurt answered with a shrug. "I'm so glad I caught you. Logan's angry with Danny and Aelita going to the park. Do you have any reason why he would be mad at them?"
Scott sighed, "Come on. We might as well go to make sure Logan doesn't kill them." He walked to the garage having a confused Kurt following him.
Skulker swung his sword at Danny making Danny block it then jump back before something could happen to him. Danny blocked a laser with the flat end of the katana and got into another battle stance. Skulker swung his sword at Danny's waste only for Danny to block the attack then punch Skulker in the face.
Skulker staggered back a bit then stabbed his sword into the ground with a smirk. He pulled two guns out of his pockets and asked, "How good are you at dodging bullets?"
"I don't know. I never tried to dodge…" Danny jumped back avoiding the two shots Skulker fired at him. Danny chuckled nervously, "Right, you weren't really looking for an answer."
Aelita rolled her eyes. "You are so clueless." She muttered as she continued hacking all of Skulker's technology.
Danny put the katana in front of him and glared at Skulker. He phased through the ground to avoid being fired at again making Skulker grin. Skulker put his guns away and pulled his sword out of the ground. "You're a fool for making your friend vulnerable."
"Do you really believe I'm that stupid?" Danny asked as his hand came out of the ground right below Skulker. Danny grabbed Skulker's legs and pulled him into the ground making the hunter smirk. "Plus, I learned I could do this." Danny came out of the ground just in time for Skulker to shoot electrical wires out of his back at the mutant.
"You should learn before you speak." Skulker said grinning like a madman.
Danny caught the wires and felt the electrical current going through them. "You're right, but it's a good thing I learned how to use my ectoplasmic energy to do this." Danny made his energy go through the wires and head straight back to Skulker.
Skulker turned his head and saw the green energy heading straight back to him. "Aw crud…" The electrical current ran through his body making him spark all over with the green energy making Danny smirk at Skulker's predicament. 'Good thing I have a backup plan.' Skulker thought pushing a button on his wrist watch.
Danny got pushed back by an unknown force and hit a tree with his back making him lose the katana he secured on his waste. Aelita kept on going through the rest of the machinery and smirked, "There, I got it." She deactivated all of Skulker's tech as the man got out of the ground.
Skulker felt the electricity stop running through him from his jacket making him raise an eyebrow. "Why would the electrical currents stop running through my jacket? I didn't deactivate it or make it stop."
"Of course you didn't." Aelita said as she came out of her hiding place in the forest. "I did that for you." She made to energy fields appear in her hands making Skulker grab his bo-staff.
"Well, even without my tech I can still take you two down." Skulker remarked spinning his bo-staff around before getting into a battle stance with the bo-staff behind him.
"I'm starting to wonder if you are even intelligent." Aelita threw her energy fields at Skulker only for Skulker to deflect both of the energy fields from hitting him. "Yep, your mind is too simple to trick."
"What do you mean?" Skulker asked raising an eyebrow.
Danny smashed his fist right in the back of Skulker's head and shook his head as Skulker fell to the ground unconscious. "She meant you seem too easy to fool." He replied grabbing the katana off the ground. He walked away from the unconscious hunter and muttered, "Let's get out of here before he wakes up or someone shows up."
Aelita nodded and left with Danny. "Well, that was interesting." Aelita muttered as they walked out into the parking lot. "Do you think he will come back after us again?"
"I don't doubt it, but we're probably going to need to be more prepared for people like him." Danny told her as they got into the truck.
Wolverine pulled into the parking lot of the park just in time to see the pair leave the area. Logan watched them leave when he caught a scent that he didn't recognize. He got off his bike and walked in the direction of the smell and stopped when he saw the unconscious body on the ground. He stared at the body in slight shock and muttered, "A mutant hunter…" He turned his attention to where Danny and Aelita use to be and shook his head. "They got lucky." He looked back down at Skulker and muttered, "If you come back for my students, you will pay dearly, bub."
Scott watched Danny's truck leave the parking lot of the park a few miles away and sighed, "Well, that's something we don't need to worry about now."
Kurt groaned, "Great, now we'll never know vhy Logan vas angry."
"Let's just go get a burger then head back to the Institute." Scott told Kurt as he drove his car to his original destination. "We'll worry about what happened later."
"I hope your right." Kurt muttered putting his elbow on the arm rest and his head on his hand.
Evan looked over the video feed he got of his friends and family and smiled as he finished everything for his video. The Professor, Ororo, Jean, and Scott were all sitting down getting ready to watch the play that Kitty and Rogue were in. Danny stood behind stage and gave the girls thumbs up. "Welcome to Bayville, my new home." Evan narrated on the video.
The video starts off with the view of the city. "It's really laid back here compared to New York, where I'm from. But I'm getting used to it." The scene switches to himself skating down the rail on his skateboard. "That's me, Evan Daniels, thrashing skater. This film is about what's important to me, and that's my family." The scene shows the group learning defense which is being taught by Logan. "I mean these guys aren't my real family, but they've kinda taken me in, you know?"
The scene switches to Kurt and Scott washing the car with Jean reading in the background. "Like any family, we're all different." The camera zooms in on Scott. "That's Scott. He's cool but can be kinda stiff." Scott gets sprayed by Kurt. Kurt laughs then get hit with the wash cloth by Scott. "Kurt usually takes care of that problem."
The scene changes to a clay statue being created when Kurt sprays the digicam. "The professor is like my new dad. He's all right, and so is Jean. That girl's got looks and talent." The camera zooms out to show the professor and Jean then changed to his aunt playing the piano. "That's Auntie Ororo at the piano. She's a real classy lady. And speaking of classy ladies, check out Rogue and Kitty."
The scene changes to those two dancing outside. "Man, they got the moves and so does Kurt. He loves to parrrrrty!"
The scene changes to Danny and Aelita in the kitchen with Logan. "Danny is probably the one person who treats me like a brother, and Aelita happens to be the smartest girl of our family. Danny tries to be very helpful to everyone, but he usually hangs out with Rogue and Aelita."Logan looks at the camera and waves off.
The scene changes to Kitty typing on the computer. "We usually all get along pretty good." Kitty takes a picture of Evan. The scene changes to Jean being surprised by Evan while she is in the bathroom. "But even when someone's mad at me, they're still there when I need help."
The scene changes to the play where everyone is minus Logan. Kitty and Rogue are dancing on stage while the vampire is flying down to the ground between them. "That's what being a family's all about...hanging tight with the good times and bad. And these guys always hang tight." The play ends, and everyone gives applause to the play. "So this movie is dedicated to my new family." Evan smiles at the camera and waves off.
A man walked up to the mutant hunter and sighed, "I should have expected you to lose." He turned over to the two behind and waved for them to pick Skulker up. "He's lucky that I still have some use for him in the future."
"What do you want to do about the Institute?" Someone asked the man curiously.
"We'll worry about them later. I'm going to make a call to an old friend." The man told them. 'Young Daniel did better than I expected, but Skulker probably underestimated him. Well, this has only begun. There will be more chances for Skulker to try again.' He thought as he grabbed his phone out of his pocket. He pressed a certain phone number on his list and put his phone up to his ear. "Hello Johnny, how do you feel about doing a job for me?"
Yeah, I was going to include the talk Danny and Aelita have with the adults about Skulker, but I decided to leave it out for certain reasons. Plus, I couldn't find a way to make it fit in the end anyway. Also Evan did help the girls like he did in the episode, and Sabertooth decided to stay in the background watching the fight between Danny, Aelita, and Skulker. I might not have written it earlier, but we know he was in the episode so he would have watched them fight to see how things would have turned out.
Anyway, sorry for making you guys wait since I have been busy with work. I've tried to do what I can with this story by including Vlad and the others in this story as well. I will give a list of Danny's enemies who will appear in this story as his enemy. Technus, Skulker, Penelope Spectra, Bertrand, Undergrowth, Johnny 13, Nocturne, Desiree, Fright Knight, and Freakshow are going to stay as Danny's villains.
Who will be doing what in the story? ;) That's a secret. I will mention Johnny 13 will be like he was in Danny Phantom with a motorcycle and his unlucky Shadow, but he will be a mutant instead of ghost.
What about Kitty and Ember? I'm working on that right now, but they will be in this story. Also Sam and Tucker will make an appearance at some point in the story.
Will any other cartoons be included in this story? Hee hee, that will remain a mystery for you guys to know. Plus, I only have one other cartoon planned out in my head right now, and I'm still trying to figure out how it will even connect with all of this. If you send me an idea of which cartoon you think it in a PM, then I will answer you. If it is in a review then don't expect an answer back in a PM.
I hoped you guys enjoyed the chapter. R&R
