"See, we told you he would disobey!" The Observers said as the Ancient ghost council watched a screen that showed the mortal realm. "You should strip him of his powers and give them to some one who won't disobey the rules!"

The council spoke between themselves till one spoke up. "Clockwork has always been trusted with the power of time, and he has never abused the power before. I think we should give him another chance."

Some of the ancients nodded in agreement, however a bunch shook their heads. "That is to lenient. This is the second time he has disobeyed us. I think we should do as the Observers recommend and strip him of his powers."

Esper, the Observers, and a lone Ancient watched as the others fought amongst themselves. This was going better than they planned.

"Daniel, quit it. Esper is manipulating you emotions."

Clockwork easily dodged an ecto ray that Danny had fired at him. "No, it's your fault! You could have prevented it all! Or at least could have warned me!"

"You think I didn't want to?" He asked, He knew that the small ghost was controlling the half ghosts emotions. So he wasn't to hurt about the accusation.

"I don't know! I don't know how you ghosts think!" He exclaimed before using the ghostly wail, which Clockwork was able to block.

Seeing that this was going nowhere, Clockwork used his own ghost powers to slow down time to encased Danny's hands in ecto energy. Then let time go to it's normal flow.

Danny was surprised that he was suddenly unable to move his hands. Clockwork floated in front of him. "Think Daniel, Would I have not of warned you if I could?"

Danny closed his eyes and concentrated, "Yeah, you would of. But why do I feel so angry at you then?"

"It's Esper. A ghost that can control emotions."

" A ghost who controls emotions?" He said, disbelieving. What kind of power was that?

Before Clockwork could point out that if he could control time, why couldn't another ghost control emotions, Vlad appeared in his ghost form in the middle of the Fenton's Living room.
