I own nothing in this fic
Amanda just sat next to Kurt as he talked. She had missed his voice since she was gone for close to three weeks in New York City visiting family there. As it was now, she was sitting in the mall's food court with her favorite fuzzy blue boyfriend talking. "So," she said, "you have eight new people in the mansion?"
Kurt nodded, "Ja, and most art human like you."
That surprised Amanda a bit, and Kurt saw this and continued, "Ve hav one family that includes a sister that are humans, plus a girl of two friends and zhe institute."
"Was that the girl that came here with you," asked Amanda.
Kurt nodded, "Ja, her name is Sam and the boy was Tucker. Zhere friends of Danny's."
"And that the ghost kid you told me about," she asked, trying to get in straight in her head.
Kurt nodded again, "Ja, unless you vere talking about Becky."
Amanda just shook her head and gave up, "I'm going to have to give up and just meet these people Kurt. To many new names."
Kurt laughed, "it ok Liebling (darling), it does get confusing."
Amanda smiled, "there is one thing I have missed."
Kurt raise an eyebrow, "oh, and vhat is zhat?"
"This," she said as she leaned in and kissed him.
Kurt was surprised at it for a bit, then closed his eyes, returning it in full. He could say that he loved her more then anything. Amanda looked through his demonic appearance and she made him happy.
Amanda was in bliss, feeling his velvet lip. His image inducer might have hid his natural form, but it didn't change the touch. His fur was so soft and warm that she couldn't help but touch it.
After a moment, they broke apart, blushing madly.
"Vow, I've really missed that," Kurt said with a smile.
Amanda smiled as she moved her chair closer, "so have I Kurt."
The two went back to their conversation, this time Amanda was telling Kurt of her trip. But they never broke apart as they talked. Amanda's parents weren't around, so there was no way she was going to stay away.
He was her fuzzy blue elf damn it, and that wouldn't change if she could help it.
A few days later, those who had been involved in the Technus repeat were out of the infirmary. Ray and Danny had returned to school, but Amara remained at home until her arm healed and Max had been home schooled to begin with, so he wasn't missing anything.
It was Thursday night after dinner that found Tucker in the kitchen sitting alone. He was beating himself up all week because of what happened. Yes, he's made screw-ups before, but nothing that bad.
Amara had been thirsty when she entered the kitchen. And she saw Tucker sitting in a chair deep in thought. She just ignored him as she walked pass, still having not forgiven him for making fun of her home. She was in the fridge when he said aloud.
"I'm sorry."
She looked up and over in surprise. She didn't notice till just now he sad he looked.
At her silence, Tucker continued, "I'm sorry about your arm, and what I said. I honestly thought you were joking. If I had known, about ether, it wouldn't have happened."
Amara stood for a moment, then closed the fridge door, placing her back to it and thought for a minute.
"I won't say that I'm not hurt about you laughing about my country," she started. "But apologizing is the first step towards forgiveness for me. As for my arm, you had nothing to do with it."
"No," he said, "I had everything to do with it. If I just stopped and thought of the file name, if I had purged the system earlier, if I had been faster, I could had prevented it."
"But you didn't," she said. She moved in close, placing a hand on his shoulder, "but you did save us in the end." She bent over and kissed his cheek lightly, and whispered in his ear, "thank you."
Before she ran out of the room.
Her face had turned Scarlet, surprised at herself at her forwardness. 'Tabitha must have been rubbing off on me,' she thought. Not that she didn't mind kissing a cute guy.
Back in the Kitchen, Tucker just sat in shook. He reached up and lightly grazed where Amara kissed his cheek as his heart hammered.
'I guess,' he thought, 'coming here wasn't, so bad.'
Danny walked into the living room to find Max, Kitty, and Rouge all sitting there. Rogue was sitting on a couch by herself while Kitty sat next to Max on a chair, his arm around her.
"I like, swear to god, I don't know how many people have thought I was a ghost when I walked through things," said Kitty.
Danny blinked when Rogue looked over. She gave a half smile, "hey sugarh, come join us."
He made his way over and sat down next to her, "what are you guys talking about?"
"Were comparing powers," answered Kitty.
Danny blinked, "comparing powers?"
Rogue nodded, "its better then sitting with nothing ta do."
Kitty looked over at Danny, "and you know, I was wondering, just what all can you do, power wise I mean?"
Danny thought for a moment, "well, my transformation and ghost sense if you call those powers. Plus you've seen me fly, shoot ecto-blasts, go invisible and intangible, and overshadow. I can also create a ghost shield, super strength, speed, ghostly wail…"
"Ghostly wail," asked Max.
Danny nodded, "yea, think really loud ear shattering scream that hurts ghosts and any tangible matter. But it takes a lot out of me, and I mean a lot. And I think that is pretty much it."
"Tha's still a tall order," stated Rogue.
Danny shrugged, "its what I got. And I'm not complaining."
Rogue gave a weak but depressed smile, "at least ya'll got some kind of control."
Danny saw it just like everyone else, "hey, you don't have to be afraid with me. I can change if you want me to."
"No," she said, "ya do have to."
"Oh come on Rogue," said Kitty, "you to have like, one moment together. Don't tell me that you don't want it to happen again."
The blue rings appeared around Danny as he transform into his phantom form next to her, "its ok Rogue."
Rogue smiled, removing a glove. She pressed her hand against his face, feeling his cool, almost cold, skin.
Kitty saw the look in her roommate's eyes, and motion for her and Max to leave them alone. Max nodded and the crept out.
"Ah shouldn't be forcing ya," said Rogue, pulling her hand away.
But Danny took it before she could, placing it back on his cheek, "its ok Rouge, really. I want you to be happy, and your not hurting me."
Rogue smiled as a small tear formed in her eye. She wanted to hold him so close, but was still so afraid. In the short time they've been together, she felt close to Danny. The last thing she wanted was to hurt him.
Danny saw the look and pulled her close, a sad look in his eyes.
"I'm here for you Rogue," he said quietly, "and I always will be."
Maddie watched from just outside the room, not having been spotted by ether teenager in their tender moment. She walked away as they shared a kiss, thoughts going through her head.
'There has to be some way to help that poor girl,' she thought. 'I can invent brand new ghost technology, so this should be easy. Mind you, I didn't have to worry about someone's actual life before, but it's still important.
She made her way to the rec room to find Jack watching cartoons again. She sighed as she plopped down next to him.
Jack didn't say anything as he watched his show, but put his arm around his wife. Maddie looked on to see a brown haired boy slam his hand onto some kind of watch. The screen changed as it showed the boy change into some kind of diamond creature.
Maddie blinked, "Jack, what is this?"
"Oh this," he replied, "its called Ben 10. That boy that just changed has an alien watch that can change him into ten different aliens at the push of a button, and after a bit he changes back to normal."
Maddie watched the cartoon, and an idea snapped into her head. She launched up and gave her husband a bear hug, "OH JACK, YOUR BRILANT!"
Jack blinked, "I am. I mean, of course I am. What did I do now?"
"You just answered a very important question I had," Maddie replied with a calculating look in her eye. "We need to see the Professor now. Maybe Tucker and Dr. McCoy as well."
"But, can't it wait," pleaded Jack as she started to drag him off.
"No, it can't Jack," she replied, her mind racing, "This is to important."
"But it's the one episode I've missed," cried Jack as he was dragged out of the room.
It was the night of the same day as Danny was flying through the sky, looking for ghosts. It had been at least a week since he last saw one, which was to weird, even for him. Something was going on.
He floated down onto a rooftop to think.
"What is going on," he thought aloud, "someone is doing something, and all of the other ghosts are afraid or something."
"Not quite," came a voice that made Danny spin around, only to be stopped in shock.
Floating in midair was Plasmius in all his glory.
"Vlad," cried Danny, "I thought you died."
Plasmius smiled, "oh sugar cookies Danny, I did. But I only lost my living body, and by doing so, I have gained more ghostly powers then before. And with the help of a few of humanities, more unique mutated species, I have become the ruler of the ghost zone. And before I forget, I must thank you and your parents for the ghost portal."
Danny blinked and then shouted out, "you did steal the ghost portal."
"But of course," said Plasmius, "I did leave a message behind for you."
"That was before I found out you had supposedly died," he replied.
Plasmius thought that over, "ok, I can see the confusion there."
"So, why are you here Vlad," demanded Danny, finally deciding to get to the point, "what do you want?"
"Why, what else, you as my son, your idiot father destroyed, and your mother married to me," came his reply in one breath and a smile.
Danny growled, "don't you ever give up Vlad?"
"Oh ginger snaps, of course not Danny my boy," replied Plasmius with a gentle shake of his head. "I won't stop till I get what rightfully mine."
"Well, you ain't getting it Vlad, I'll stop you anyway I can," Danny replied, igniting his ecto-blasts.
Plasmius glared, sighed, and then snapped his fingers. Up floated Johnny 13 with his shadow, Skulker, and Youngblood.
"If you won't come willingly, I'm sure these four can help you decide," said Plasmius. "When you three are done with him, bring him to my lair."
"Yes master," all three said.
Plasmius nodded and began to fly away when he stopped. "Oh Cheeto's," he said, then turned to Danny, "tell your mom I said Hi." Then flew off.
Danny growled as the four took up a half circle in front of him. "This is not good," mumble Danny as he tumble a communicator switch on his belt.
Thankfully, his mom demanded he take it with him, and when active, told her and the others Danny needed help and they could us it to locate him.
At that same moment, Youngblood raised his peg leg, which changed into a cannon and Skulker aimed an ecto-blaster at him.
"Time to move," he cried, phasing down into the roof as the blast passed over-head. Danny landed in a dark room and just took a moment to figure out where he was when he hit by Johnny's shadow, hard enough to be sent flying through the glass window front. Danny rolled with it and landed on his feet, sending a blast at the shadow creature, forcing him back into the store.
A bike engine came to Danny's ear and turned to see Johnny fly by and clothes line the boy child.
Danny took the hit at full force and tumble against the ground, when Skulker grabbed him from under the pavement by the ankle. Skulker went up and spun around, throwing Danny into a wall. Which cracked from the force.
Youngblood then appeared and hit Danny with a blast from his pirate hook, forcing the wall to crumble on top of Danny.
'Damn it, how did they get so good,' Danny thought as the three humanoid approached. 'I got one chance, let it work.'
Taking a deep breath, Danny screamed, putting all his power into his voice in the most powerful Ghostly wail that he could muster.
The three stopped and gripped their ears as glass all around them shattered.
But it didn't last no, and Danny collapsed in a coughing fit, his body changing back to human form due to his lack of power.
The three ghosts stood once again, and along with the fourth joining them, approached Danny once again, as if unfazed by the attack.
When a pair of blue blast struck Skulker and Youngblood. Danny looked to see his mother and father in full ghost fighting gear, along with Tucker and Sam, both with thermoses in hands.
Jack grinned, knowing just who was left, "I've been waiting a long time to use this." He raised a Fenton Anti-Creep stick to Jazz's one time Boyfriend. When jack went to strike, Shadow struck Jack hard enough to send the man flying back into the Fenton RV.
Maddie raised her Fenton Bazooka, "try this on for size," and fired at the leaving shadow. A mini portal opened and Johnny's shadow was sucked inside.
Now alone against the Fenton's, Johnny turned and raised fists.
Jazz popped out of the RV, smiling, "sorry Johnny, not this time." She took aim and fired her own ecto-blaster, turning Johnny into and ecto blob with the first shot.
Tucker smiled as he sucked the blob into the thermos with Skulker.
Maddie put down her bazooka and ran to Danny's side, seeing his eye swell on his black and blue face.
"Looks like it worked," he said, before passing out in pain.
Jazz had seen Danny beat up, along with Tucker and Sam both, but they all agreed that this had been the worse.
Maddie just looked at him and cried lightly. After a moment, she and Jazz moved him into the RV and made there way home. She hated herself for not being quicker. She knew she was luck he was still alive, but it still hurt her to see her son in this condition.
Jack saw his son covered in bruises. No stupid remarks, but he didn't feel right seeing it. He would make it up to his son, somehow. He promised himself this.
And even though he was out cold, Danny's mind was going a mile a minute, trying to think about one thing.
'Why does Vlad need the Ghost portal and how is he controlling ghosts?'
Ok, more loving fluff, don't ask why I'm putting so much in this story unlike the others, but that's just what I'm coming up with. Andlike before with the Scott/Jeanmoment, I just had to put in at least one Kurt/Amanda momenth as well. I hope you people liked it. But what do you think about it all? C'mon, you know you want to review, so do it already.
