Trapped Together

Danny stopped to take a breath. He's exhausted from all of the fast flying.

"Okay… one hot but crazy admirer taken care of. Maybe… maybe I can tire her out and help her with her memory?"

He heard someone land behind him. He looked back and saw Starfire, back in her purple outfit.

"Apologies. After that grimplork called Ember, I realized I should wear something more appropriate for combat." She said as she did a small twirl.

"Oh… I see…" Danny said, silently cursing himself for not noticing she was gone for the past 20 minutes.

"Darling, what do you think of Luand'r?" Starfire said.

"What do you mean?" Danny asked, keeping a few feet distance just in case.

"Luand'r was my mother's name and it means moon fire. Do you think that it would be nice to name one of our little ones that?" Starfire gushed.

Danny just stood there, actually petrified for a second as he processed what she just said.

Names...for children?! She's taking baby names now?!

Danny screamed as he took to the skies as fast as he could. Starfire followed him.

Seeing a cave, Danny turned invisible. Starfire stopped in her path and looked around for him.

Danny flew into the cave as fast as he could.

Once inside, he regained tangibility and took a breath.

"Finally…"

"Oh, my darling hero… it is very much the so dark…" A cute voice said before giggling.

Danny's eyes widened.

He's not alone.

"Uh…"

Suddenly, her powerful arms wrapped around him tightly.

"Oh Danny…" She said sweetly as he attempted to break free. "Can you not hear the wedding… growls?" She went from sweet to confused in that last moment.

"Growls?" Danny questioned, not noticing her grip loosened. "Do they growl on your planet for weddings?" He realizes what he just said. "Not that I was-"

"No, I am the serious." She said, letting him go. "Do you not hear that?"

Danny listened in and did hear the sound of growling.

"Yeah… I can hear it."

They suddenly turned around and saw the source of the growl.

It's a bear and it is obvious that this cave is his home that they have just intruded. The bear growled and Danny and Starfire blinked.

"Oh...uh...pardon us, Mr. The Bear...we did not mean to intrude in your home..."Starfire said, all the while Danny grabbed onto her and became intangible and flew out of the cave before the beast could try and attack them.

Sure, he wasn't worried since he has his powers and Starfire is strong, but he didn't want to risk the chance of using his powers on an animal like that or he would never hear the end of it from Sam.

Once they were out of the cave, Danny sighed.

He then suddenly realized that his hands are still around Starfire, he was about to let go and run for his life, only for the amorous alien princess to grab onto him.

"Oh darling... thank you so much for the assist..." Starfire said as she started peppering his face with her kisses again.

"S-Starfire..." Danny shouted, about to plead her to stop.

Only for her to grab his head and kiss him deeply for well over two minutes of full on lip and tongue contact.

MUAH!

Once she pulled away, Danny even gasped for air and immediately fazed out of her hands before she could do it again.

She is getting worse... Danny thought as he immediately flew to the air but Starfire is on his tail.

"This game of the hard to get is the most fun!" Starfire giggled as she flew after him.

"I AM NOT PLAYING!" Danny shouted as he kept flying but Starfire just giggled, making it clear that she is still too lovesick to take him seriously.

Unfortunately for Danny, Starfire managed to catch up to him, grab him by the leg and pulled him towards her.

"AH! Starfire! I-"

He was silenced when she kissed him again, this time in the middle of the sky and Danny, despite knowing he should escape and that this is wrong, repeated this in his mind.

Must escape... must escape... must escape... He thought as he was a little taken by the kiss.

"My, my... isn't this sweet... young love..." A new voice was heard, disturbing them.

"PLASMIUS!" Danny shouted as he was still in Starfire's arms.

Thankfully, she paused her amorous onslaught of kisses in favor of glaring at the enemy.

"YOU?!" Starfire shouted, the ghostly energies from both Danny and Vlad were making her mood even angrier.

Danny took this opportunity to wriggle out of her grasp and was now facing his arch foe.

"What are you doing here, Fruitloop?!" Danny shouted, being ready for anything.

Vlad sent him a vile, smug smirk.

"Oh… I just want payback on you two lovesick teens." He stated. "And I have something that would make that a reality."

"I have something for ya!" Danny shouted as he flew at Vlad. "It's a knuckle sandwich!"

Danny threw a punch that Vlad caught. Vlad was about to counter attack, but Starfire flew in and punched the villain in the stomach before backhanding him.

"Away, villain!" She shouted.

Danny smiled at her attack, forgetting her emotional state at the moment.

Vlad got angry and tried to fire at them, but Danny reacted fast and created a shield.

"I'll block, you attack!" Danny said to Starfire over his shoulder.

"I am on it!" Starfire said.

She flew above and fired a starbolt that knocked Vlad back a bit.

Vlad snarled in anger.

"Okay… time to end your little love fest!"

Vlad pulled out the Plasmius Maximus and threw it at Danny after he lowered his guard, who was momentarily shocked and revered to human form before falling.

"DANNY!"

Starfire caught him and landed on the ground, with him in her arms in bridal fashion before letting him on his feet.

Vlad threw a small cube at them, one that grew and surrounded them before shrinking to a 5 by 5 size.

"Danny?!" Starfire called out. "What has happened?!"

"Uh oh…" He could be heard saying.

"Now…" Vlad spoke. "You'll be without power for the next 5 hours. In the meantime, I'll have you both stored in the Ghost Zone for safe keeping…" Vlad snapped his fingers. His vultures arrived. "Take that box!"

Danny cursed under his breath, unable to believe that Vlad trapped them in this stupid cube.

"Darling? How are we to get out of this cubical prison?" Starfire asked, actually sounding normal and Danny sighed.

"Cam down. You hear what he said? My power is supposed to come back in a few hours..." Danny muttered.

'And then... we shall be out?" Starfire asked.

Danny was too busy sulking to notice her tone change.

"Yeah... I still can't believe that old Fruitloop got us..." Danny muttered, only to suddenly feel Starfire's arms around him and looking into her loving green eyes. "Oh no…"

Danny gulped as he suddenly remembered his predicament here.

"Well... perhaps we can do... something... to pass the time..." Starfire giggled in a sultry way and Danny squirmed as he crawled away, only to hit the wall of the cube prison.

This stupid thing is five by five and doesn't even have enough room to stand. It's like I'm trapped in a cage... with a very love hungry Starfire.

"Oh, darling... what shall we do to pass the time until the powers return and we are free?" Starfire asked in a coy tone.

Danny gulped. "Uh... how about Go Fish?" He nervously suggested as he tried to backed away, only to hit the wall of the cube and Starfire crawled towards him, with those bedroom eyes that could both terrify him and make him feel flattered.

"I... have the better idea..." She giggled seductively as her arms were now around her now captive lover. "I know that you are still the very shy about marriage...but like I said, maybe this will show you that there is no need for it...besides, it is much more the fun than the Going of Fish." Starfire giggled as she pinned Danny down and is now on top of the squirming boy.

Danny found himself pinned on the floor, as Starfire was on top of him, kissing him without permission yet again.

Here we go again… He thought in both misery and some level of interest.

"If you marry me...I promise to make you feel this way...always…" She whispered sweetly before kissing him again.

As much as Danny tried to resist, his hormones and residing feelings for Starfire were working against him.

His eyes ended up closing and he began kissing her back by instinct.

Can't resist… feels too… nice…

After about five minutes of the mostly one-sided intimacy, Starfire pulled away, still in a haze of passion.

She noticed sweat was on his forehead.

"Danny, are you warm?"

Danny blinked in confusion before feeling his forehead.

"I… guess it's kind of hot in here."

Probably a poor choice of words with her here.

"I shall assist in the cooling down!"

Danny found her words confusing, until she pulled something of his off, over his head. He found himself shirtless, much like during the igloo incident where things ironically for hot with Starfire.

He then heard her gasp in delight and he saw that she was eyeing him... hungrily.

Like she is a lioness and he is a trapped zebra.

"Oh no..." Danny whispered

Before he could think of something to say, she lunged at him and in less than a second her tongue was in his mouth and she pressed herself against his now bare chest.

"This feels nice… does it not?" Starfire cooed.

"St... Starfire... mlu... mplu..." He couldn't even say anything that isn't muffled with how she was working with her tongue now.

She stopped for a breath to smile at Danny.

"I will be getting more comfortable, my darling... I too am the hot." Starfire said as she took her gloves and boots off.

Danny gulped despite himself. Without her boots and gloves, Starfire's clothes are a little revealing and it's not helping him right now.

Especially as she is now touching his chest as she started nibbling on his neck, despite his protest. Or his attempts to make one.

"Star...Starfire...please...please. I..." Danny gasped as she bit even harder, and he knew he was going to get yet another hickey from her. It just felt too good for him now. "Wow…"

He then kissed her back.

Sam and Tucker had arrived to Fenton Works, late in the evening. They were supposed to come to Danny for their weekly video game match and Sam insisted that even though Starfire is here, that tradition can't be broken.

"Sam, are you sure? Danny might be busy or something..." Tucker said and saw Sam frown stubbornly.

"Yes, I am sure.. unless it is a ghost attack, we ALWAYS have out video game matches and nothing is changing that..." Sam said stubbornly.

Tucker sighed.

He had a feeling why Sam is coming here and it's not because of her love for video games.

They knocked on the door and to their surprise, Jazz opened it.

"Hey guys..." Jazz greeted.

"Hey Jazz... Is Danny ready for our video game match?" Sam asked as she walked in.

"Danny's not here... I thought he was with you guys..."Jazz said.

Sam's eyes widen, so did Tucker's.

"What? No! We thought he was here after he left to check on Starfire." Tucker said.

Sam's eyes widen and then she frowned.

"Speaking of which, where is our little... guest?" Sam said, stopping before calling Starfire what she really wants to call her.

"She's not in the OP center since mom and dad are still on their invention contest...I thought she was with you guys too..."Jazz said.

Sam frowned. "Oh great...it's not enough that Danny has to babysit her, but now she has to take him to who knows where and ruin our match." She muttered in jealousy.

"A little premature Sam. We don't know what happened or what Starfire is doing. For all we know, there was probably a ghost attack and she and Danny went to go handle it..." Tucker suggested.

Danny looked around, wondering how and when he got here.

He was at the entrance of what looked to be a house... an unfamiliar house.

"How did I get here?" Danny said as he was inside.

Suddenly, he heard sounds and saw something charging at him.

He got prepared, only to his shock to see that they are children.

Flying children who look very familiar and they look happy to see him.

"Daddy's home!" They shouted as they all grabbed him.

"What?!" Danny shouted as the children all clung to him in different ways, all insisting that he play with them. "Wait, Daddy?!"

Danny noticed they were two boys and two girls. Furthermore, he noticed they had combinations of his hair and eye color and a certain other one, one with bright red hair and inhuman green eyes.

The smallest girl giggled. "You're silly, Daddy!"

"Mom always said you like to joke when you feel good!" The oldest boy said.

Mom?!

Danny whipped as he turned and he ended up seeing a picture.

A wedding picture.

His and Starfire's wedding picture!

"WHAT?!" He questioned loudly.

"Darling! You are home!"

Danny looked up the stairway and saw her, Starfire, dressed with that apron again.

He noticed she was wearing a wedding ring, one he finally noticed was on his own finger.

Panic hit him and he took a step back, but that's when the oldest son spoke again.

"Happy anniversary!"

Danny stopped and looked at the boy.

"Huh?"

The eldest daughter laughed.

"You forgot again, didn't you Daddy?"

"That's always a thing!" The youngest son smiled.

"Our wedding anniversary, Darling." Starfire explained. "The day you and I became the husband and wife and became happy… my love."

That word made Danny shiver before he saw just how happy she was and how their children had playful smiles.

Suddenly, he felt relaxed, comforted.

He realized now just how nice their house was and how happy and healthy these children were. And most of all, how happy Starfire was.

Suddenly, he felt a smile on his face forming.

"Yeah…" He laughed. "I do forget things."

Starfire hovered to him and put a hand on his shoulder.

"Never forget…" She said sweetly before shouting. "WAKE UP, DARLING!"

Danny was surprised.

Starfire was shaking her unconscious lover awake.

"Wake up!" Danny stirred awake and saw her above him. Starfire smiled. "You are okay!"

"W-what happened?" He said with a small slur.

"You fell unconscious due to the excessiveness of the making out." Starfire explained. "I may have… gone too far." She said, sounding guilty and she looked away. "Am I… too much?"

"Huh?" Danny questioned.

"You passed out because of me… I am the too much, am I not?"

Danny was about to answer, but found himself unable to find the right words.

It took 5 seconds of his silence for her to recognize.

"I knew it…"

Despite their short prison, Starfire moved back, enough for Danny to sit up.

"Starfire?"

"I am sorry… you were not being the shy, I was being the overly bearing." She said.

Boyfriend instincts kicked in.

"Starfire… I already forgave you for it."

Starfire looked surprise to hear him say this to her.

"You… did?"

"You found out I wasn't Tamaranian and realized you were being too emotional. I forgave you and you forgave me for taking too long to tell you." He then gave her a warm smile before putting a hand on her face. "That's when we became a couple."

To hear this melted her heart. Starfire smiled.

Then she gasped.

"I remember!"

Danny's eyes widened.

"What?"

"I recall! All of it!" She said. "I recall meeting you! I recall my sister's attempts on you! And Val-Yor! And even… the Citadel…" Those last words are when she ceased to act excited, now she was worried. "Here I am… making the unwanted advancements of affection while my friends are finding my attacker…"

Danny put his other hand on Starfire's face, getting her attention.

"Please don't forget… you and I are here for a reason. We're here to keep you out of this Complex guy's reach while the Titans find him and hopefully take him down." Danny said with a reassuring smile. "We'll go and help them once it's Saturday morning, okay?" He asked.

Starfire smiled.

"Okay…" She took a breath. "I will attempt to use my willpower, resume my resistance to these ghostly energies. Hopefully, I can keep my distance from you."

She attempted to do so, but Danny then gave her a quick kiss on her lips.

"Or… we could try breaking out of this thing?" He suggested. "I think the reason we got put in the Ghost Zone is that you'd be too busy sucking face with me to try and get out. But now… you can put all of that into breaking free."

Starfire thought, then smiled.

"I shall commence the breaking out!"

Starfire then rose her arms to the roof and started using her superior strength to start breaking the roof, but it was still tight. Danny rose his arms and started pressing up.

"Let's see if I can help." He said before trying.

"But Danny… we do not know how long it has been. Your powers may not be restored!"

Danny shrugged.

"Worth a try?"

Outside, the box was placed on a small hovering island, where the vultures were all asleep. At least, until Vlad Plasmius landed.

"Wake up!" She shouted to his birds, who stumbled awake. "It's only been 2 hours! You can't be that tired!"

"Need I remind you of our ages?!" The lead vulture said. "At least the lovebirds are still trapped!""

Danny and Starfire continue trying to break out, but only Starfire was having success. Danny struggled.

"Danny?" She stopped to ask for his well-being.

"I'll be okay!" He said, struggling with a grin.

Starfire smiled as her head inched closer.

"I love that drive of yours…"

She said, to Danny's surprise, before she planted a brief kiss on his lips.

Although brief, it felt like it went for a long time as Danny's thoughts went like a cars on a vacant highway with no speed limit.

It was the L word.

It made him scared.

It made him confused.

It made him… happy.

Very happy.

Then, he closed his eyes and kiss her back and, before their lips parted, he was Danny Phantom once again.

They both gasped at this.

"You are Danny Phantom once more?" She questioned. "It has been the 5 hours?"

Danny shrugged. "Let's just keep this up."

They both struggled to break the box open.

"Now…" Vlad said, unaware of what is about to happen. "Let's take some samples of DNA. I can have my perfect half-ghost son and army of alien soldiers in no time!" That's when the box started shaking, to his surprise. "What the…?"

"Hey!" One of the vultures shouted, with his wings to his sides to amplify. "We're evil but that's just irresponsible!"

He got the wrong idea… and was proven wrong when it bursts open.

Danny Phantom and Starfire were out, and ready for battle.

"WHAT?!" Vlad asked incredulously. "It hasn't been 5 hours! It's been 2!" Vlad gritted his teeth and pulled out the Plasmius Maximus again. "I guess I'll have to try again!"

A starbolt shot out of Starfire's fist and destroyed it.

"You will not be a pain to Danny any longer, villain!" She boasted.

Vlad's fists began to glow as he pointed a finger at the teens.

"GET THEM!"

All of the vultures flew at the three, but ghost rays and starbolts shot them away.

Vlad was about to make an attack, but a starbolt to his face stopped. Then Danny flew in and threw a punch to Vlad's chin.

"OH… HONEY BISCUITS!" Vlad shouted as he made an impact in one of the floating islands of the Ghost Zone.

Before Vlad could make another move, Starfire grabbed him by the foot and started spinning him around.

"Do not bother us again!" She shouted before using her alien strength and throwing him with the force of a jet, sending him flying deeper into the Ghost Zone. "Away with you!" She shouted angrily before turning to see her beloved and smiled warmly. She then flew to him. "Danny!"

She hugged him tightly.

"Uh… Starbolts?" He asked weakly from the crushing embrace.

Starfire realized what she was doing and let go.

"Oh dear… I am the sorry!" She said apologetically.

Danny rubbed his hand on his arm before glancing at Starfire and giving a brief smile.

He laughed a little. "Okay… how about just 10-20 minutes of you letting it all out before we head back?"

Starfire gasped happily.

"GLORIOUS!"

She hugged him again before landing a deep kiss on his face. This time, Danny returned it, even as she fell to the ground with him in her arms and began kissing him even further.

25 minutes after that, somebody phased into the living room, looking tired, roughed up and overwhelmed.

It's Danny...who soon changed back to his human self and looked tired yet also excited.

"DANNY!" Tucker, Sam and Jazz all exclaimed as they rushed to him to see what happened to him.

To their surprise, shock and mild irritation, they saw what is wrong with him.

His lips were red and puffy, his hair is even more messed up than usual, his clothes were a little roughed up to and there is like a hundred new hickeys all across his neck and jaw!

"Oh...hi guys..." Danny said in a tired voice.

Sam gritted her teeth.

It's obvious what happened here but neither dared to voice it.

Other than a clueless Tucker, who looked impressed and even jealous.

"So, how did things go with Starfire?" Tucker asked with a smirk, only to be ribbed by Sam.

"She's got her memories back. She's waiting downstairs while Mom and Dad finish their invention competition."

"It's alright, little brother." Jazz said. "They called it a tie and went out for dinner at some fancy restaurant. You and your girlfriend…" Jazz didn't notice Sam was sending murder eyes in her way. "Can hide their again." She then had a playful smile. "Just don't go past first base."

Danny blushed while Sam gritted her teeth even further.

"So… you guys okay with her joining us in our video game tournament?" Danny asked Sam and Tucker.

"NO!/Yes…" Sam and Tucker said different, the latter getting ribbed by the former for it.

"Great!" Danny said, not noticing Sam's disagreement with the idea.

Hours later, having fun in the video game tournament with her beloved, Starfire returned to the bed she's been assigned to.

She smiled at getting her memories restored. She was happy to have a year of her life back, though she did have one issue.

She thought of how she went back to being clingy and obsessive for Danny. It made her frown.

It made her feel guilty, but also realize something else.

She kept using the word "love" around him. They chalked it up to her mind not being in the right.

She realizes now, after all this, that that is not the truth.

She realized what her feelings for him are.

"I love you…" She whispered quietly, thinking of Danny.

Gonna take a quick break from this story.

Special thanks to FlowerPrincess11 for suggested scenes.

Now Starfire realizes her feelings are genuine love.

How will this affect their lives?
