Chapter 7: Finding Love

It was morning at Titans' Tower. Starfire fell asleep on the couch, unsure of what she saw last night. Her eyes open and she gets up. She looked out the window.

"Where did they go?"

Where did my Phantom and that oddly attractive greasy man go?

She could ask for help, but Beast Boy and Cyborg called and said they'd be gone a bit longer. No word about Robin with his supposed friend. As for Raven, she's still in her room. She once spent an entire week in there, though she was being manipulated by an evil dragon. She was all alone.

I must find out for myself.

Hours ago.

Danny and Johnny returned to the Ghost Zone. Danny managed to destroy Johnny's bike and leave him at his girlfriend's doorstep before returning home. He still had his father's odd gadget, but for now he just wanted some sleep.

Reaching the lab, Danny had to find out for himself if it worked. So, he decides to try morphing back into a human.

"Here goes everything…" Closing his eyes, he makes his attempt. A flash later and, once his eyes open, he sees he is Danny Fenton again. He sighs in relief. "Finally…"

He walks towards the stairway, looking to the Ghost Portal. There's a brief hint of regret as he looks back.

Sorry, Starfire, but I'm not a member of your race, I'm not even from your universe. You're pretty and you seem like a nice girl, when you're not going crazy because of me, but I can't stay with you.

He walks up the stairs, feeling a bit guilty for likely breaking her heart.

Come morning, Danny debated about how to go through this Saturday. He hasn't seen Sam or Tucker, nor has he talked to his sister about what happened last night. He's not sure how they'd handle a lovely alien from another universe spent more than hour stalking him.

He just wants to relax and not half to deal with any trouble.

Starfire flew to the strange area where her new beloved disappeared to. She flew back and forth in the spot where he was last seen.

"What exactly had occurred here?" She asks.

She looks in the spot, stroking her chin in thought when someone speaks to her.

"Starfire?" She turns around to see her friend, Raven, coming in. "Were you aware of what happened here last night?"

"I saw two people go into a portal in this location."

Raven flies in and hold her hand up where something is likely meant to be.

"It's more like they came from it and only returned."

"Phantom came from it?"

Raven turns around, looking rather puzzled by that name.

"Who's Phantom?"

"A Tamaranian! A male. He disappeared with another into where your hand currently is."

"Huh…" A male from her race is pretty rare for this world. This got Raven curious as she senses something from her hand. "I can sense some powerful spiritual energy from here… Maybe I can open the portal to find your friend." Raven hovered back and held both hands up. "Azarath Metrion Zinthos!" From her hands, a dark energy appears that causes the portal that Danny and Johnny entered last night to open up.

"Phantom!" Starfire yells as she flies into the portal.

"Starfire, no!" Raven calls out. She's too late as Starfire enters and the portal closes. "Oh no… I could only have kept it open for a short time. It'll be hours before I have the power to open it again."

"What is this?" Starfire asks, now floating through the Ghost Zone. "It resembles the world Raven showed me on her crystal ball." She sees what looks like a portal inside a replica of the Eiffel Tower. "Perhaps I can find Phantom there."

She flies in the direction of the portal, her thoughts going back to Phantom.

I will find you… my Phantom.

The energies of the Ghost Zone are affecting her as Danny's very presence did.

She's not aware that a certain ghost of time is observing her through one of his monitors.

"It looks like his day off has been cancelled."

Danny heard that Sam and Tucker have plans, and his sister is off to the library, so he's choosing to take the day to himself. He thought of nothing better than just kicking back and watching television.

"Well, guess I can just kick back." He reaches the couch and sits on it. "Time to check out what's on." He grabs the remote and pushes the "on" button. It does nothing. "Huh. Do I need new batteries?" He looks to the remote after it fails to turn on again.

"Danny…"

Danny's eyes widen as he looks behind and sees a familiar old ghost with a long, grey beard.

"Clockwork?" Danny asks, it's now he notices a time medallion on him before he asks more. "What's going on?"

"We have a problem… it's about your date from last night."

Another short chapter.

The next one is going to be longer.

And yeah, we're not only moving to Danny's Earth, we're also going to France, where Pepe Le Pew cartoons are usually set.
