Chapter 4: 'New' Students
As mourning approached, Jazz drove Danny to school and as he got into his class which was Mr. Launcer's class, Mr. Launcer then directed the entire class to stand up.
"Class" said Mr. Launcer, "I would like to introduce you to five new students at Casper High, they are Clay, Raimundo, Clay, Kimiko and Jack Spicer."
"I don't know why Jack is here" said Clay as he whispered to Omi.
"Probably planning something very, very bad" said Omi.
"Omi" said Mr. Launcer as he began to walk closer to him, "do you have something to say to the class such as introduce yourself perhaps?"
"Oh yes, most certainly" said Omi, "we have, uh come to learn here at this establishment."
"Hey Fenturd" whispered Dash as he leaned over to Danny, "looks like we have somebody else to pick on instead of you."
"Go ahead be my guest" said Danny.
"You five" Mr. Launcer, "you can take your seats near Mr. Fenton, Mr. Folly and Ms. Manson."
"Okay" said Danny as he whispered to Sam and Tucker, "it's officially getting to be worse."
"Let's just hope they don't catch you in your transformation" whispered Sam to Danny.
Meanwhile back at Vlad's hideout in Amity Park, Wuya was still wondering what was Jack Spicer would do at Casper High.
"Are you sure your plan will work" said Wuya as she floated by Vlad who was in his normal human form.
"But of course it will" said Vlad, "you see I have money and the power to do whatever is necessary and even more."
"So when is there going to be the next piece for the Golden Knight?" asked Wuya.
"Oh that?" asked Vlad to Wuya, "It should be arriving within the hour or so at Casper High. Skulcker should be the first to stir things up."
"Well I hope your plan does work" said Wuya.
As the bell rang back at Casper High, Danny was racing toward his next class. He didn't want to use his ghost powers around so long as the Xiaolin warriors were around or this Jack Spicer whoever Danny thought didn't seem to be a pretty picture. While he was running his ghost sense picked up and noticed Skulcker.
"Greetings welt" said Skulcker as he appeared behind him and readied his weapons, "since the last time my enjoyment of seeing people hitting people was disrupted this time I shall stir up the trouble."
"This isn't good" said Danny.
As Danny was about to change into his ghost mode, he noticed the four Xiaolin warriors whom were turning a corner and spotted Skulcker. Danny stopped his transformation just in time.
"What's the matter welt, afraid to fight me?" asked Skulcker as he noticed Danny reverting back into his human self.
"Hey ghost" said Clay as he prepared the Fist of Tebigong, "leave that kid alone."
"Great" said Skulcker as he turned around and noticed the four Xiaolin warriors, "more welts to fire at."
"Looks like this place needs more cleansing than going after this Inviso Bill" said Omi.
Before Skulcker could fire a single shot at the Xiaolin warriors, Clay used his Fist of Tebigong against Skulcker, sending him crashing against some lockers. Skulcker then recovered against the attack only to face an onslaught by Raimundo and Kimiko which damaged part of Skulcker's suit.
"What's taking so long?" asked Vlad on Skulcker's communicator.
"I'm having a little bit of trouble" replied Skulcker as he was fouring all four Xiaolin warriors.
"Well that shipment of the pieces of the Golden Knight pieces should be arriving soon" said Vlad.
"You welts are a waste of my time" said Skulcker as he then fired a smoke grenade at the four Xiaolin warriors whom started to cough giving Skulcker the right time to escape.
As the smoke cleared the hallway was in ruins and Mr. Launcer was quite shocked to see the scene as he dropped his mug of coffee onto the ground.
"Great crouching tigers hidden dragons!" shrieked Mr. Launcer as he looked at the hallway in ruins then he noticed the four new students, "You four who was responsible for this?"
"Uh, it was a crazy ghost?" asked Omi.
"Wrong answer" replied Mr. Launcer, "I would like to see you four in detention."
"Wow" said Raimundo as Mr. Launcer finally left the scene, "he's even tougher than Master Fung."
"We can't find out what Jack Spicer is doing, search for the pieces of the Golden Knight and serve this detention" said Clay.
"Clay's right" said Kimiko, "we have to find this Invisio Bill. Maybe that ghost we just fought is after Inviso Bill as well."
"You mean the anonymous source that came to the Xiaolin temple is wrong about this Inviso Bill, Danny Phantom or whomever these people refer to the ghost boy is wrong?" asked Raimundo.
"Well" said Clay, "we should get going."
As Danny watched the four Xiaolin warriors leave the scene, he then used his ghost powers and left the scene to find his two friends. While the Xiaolin warriors were walking toward their next period, they heard some knocking on the window. As they approached the window they noticed it was Dojo.
"Dojo" said Kimiko, "what are you doing here?"
"Master Fung just sent me here to see how you four were doing" replied Dojo.
"Not so good" said Clay.
"This Mr. Launcer gave us detention" said Raimundo.
"Don't worry" said Dojo, "I have it covered. The Guys in White can erase whatever damages Mr. Launcer has done."
"Well that's a relief" said Raimundo.
"I also have to show you guys these strange bumps on my tail" said Dojo as he showed it to the four Xiaolin warriors as the suddenly gasped.
"You mean the Shen Gong Wu?" asked Omi.
"No" replied Dojo, "something much more powerful, the pieces of the Golden Knight."
"But where would they be located at?" asked Omi.
"Students" replied Mr. Launcer on the inner comm., "some priceless artifacts are on display in the auditorium. As for our four new students I hope you four don't go all kung fu and ruin things."
"Quick" said Omi, "we have to hurry to this auditorium."
Meanwhile a few hallways down, Danny had finally caught up with Sam and Tucker and Sam showed the medallion Clockwork had given her was glowing a bright yellow glow.
"Looks like one of those pieces of the Golden Knight is nearby" said Sam.
"Then it's time to go ghost" said Danny as he changed into his ghost mode and took Sam and Tucker to the auditorium.
As they finally arrived, Danny hid Sam and Tucker in a safe place and he noticed that this Jack Spicer was acting quite suspiciously around the pieces of the Golden Knight.
"Okay" said Danny as he appeared right in front of Spicer, "I don't know who the heck you are."
"If you must know ghost boy" said Jack, "I am an evil genius and I waste no time with ilk such as you."
As Jack Spicer continued to attempt to lecture Danny Phantom on what an "Evil Genius" he was, the four Xiaolin warriors came onto the scene and were shocked to see what looked like by their perspective to be siding with Jack Spicer.
"I knew you ghost boy couldn't be trusted!" shouted Omi as he and the rest of the Xiaolin warriors came onto the scene, "You have been collaborating with Jack Spicer and his ilk!"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa" said Jack, "as much as I think having a ghost boy as a minion I have my own agenda that won't need such minions."
"Hey, I'm not his minion!" protested Danny.
As Danny was trying to convince the four Xiaolin warriors he wasn't on the same side of Jack Spicer, Skulcker who recovered from the fight with the four Xiaolin warriors was looking at the unfolding events from a safe distance.
"I can't believe these welts are going to do my job for me" said Skulcker to himself, "when these Xiaolin welts finish off my welt I can finally have his skin as a pelt."
