(Rubs hands excitedly) Oh, boy, here comes the fight scene. I hope it isn't too confusing, 'cause…well, you'll see. (Grins) DP was all right, though I think it could have used a little more pruning before being put out. Get it, pruning? (Sniggers) Anyway, looking forward to the next one, which will be who knows when?

Okay, now I'm better. Slightly. On to the next chapter!

Chapter XI: Superheroes to the Rescue!
Danny and Clark were both flying at top speeds towards Wisconsin, each of them in their respective alter egos.
"How much further?" shouted Clark.
"Just a little bit more!" returned Danny. His legs had been reduced to an ecto-tail to allow him to fly faster. Now he could easily keep up with Clark, even at just below the speed of sound.
Finally Vlad's castle came into full view. They landed nearby.
"All right," said Clark, "let's get this over with. And get out soon, okay?"
Danny glared at him with his bright green eyes. "I'll get out, don't worry." Without further hesitation, he overshadowed Clark, who had closed his eyes in anticipation of what was about to happen. When Clark reopened his eyes, they were bright green.
"All right," said Danny/Clark. "Let's rock and roll." It took Danny a few minutes to adjust to this body. He flew through the door, intangible, and started blasting the ghost guards inside as soon as he could. He could hurt them, but because of Clark's invulnerability, they couldn't hurt him.
Danny/Clark punched his way through the guards, and found a room with no doors or windows.
That's probably where Lois is, Clark's thoughts intruded.
Yeah, I figured out that much. He must know how good of an escape artist she is, Danny thought back. Without hesitation, he phased into the room.
"Clark!" shouted Lois. Quickly, Danny/Clark moved to untie her, using Clark's heat vision on the lowest setting.
Lois hissed as Danny/Clark missed the rope slightly. When she was finally free, she rubbed her slightly burned wrist.
"Sorry," muttered Danny/Clark. Lois squinted at him.
"Danny?" she asked. Danny/Clark looked her in the eyes and she almost fell backward. Instead of the warm brown pools that were Clark's eyes, she was face to face with a pair of brilliantly emerald green orbs. Danny/Clark rubbed the back of his neck.
"Hee, hee, hi?" he said.
"Very funny, how do we get out of here?"
"Same way we got in. Come on," he said. Taking Lois's hand, he phased them out of the room. He was met on the other side by a furious Vlad Plasmius.
"And Daniel said my costume was weird. At least I don't wear spandex."
"Actually, fruitloop, you do." Vlad was surprised at the voice speaking.
"So you've overshadowed the most powerful man on earth. Besides me, of course."
Danny/Clark's eyes narrowed. "Wanna bet?" He muttered to Lois. "Get behind me, and cover your ears." To his surprise and Clark's relief, she did what she was told.
Danny/Clark took a deep breath, and screamed. But this wasn't any ordinary scream; it wasn't even a normal Ghostly Wail. It was a Ghostly Wail with the power of the Man of Steel behind its force. Vlad didn't stand a chance.
Danny/Clark screamed for a full minute until Vlad was passed out opposite them. The house shook, the remaining force of the Wail tearing it apart stone by stone.
Tired, Danny/Clark managed to scoop up Vlad, with Lois hanging on to his neck for dear life. They managed to get out before the entire place collapsed.
Danny launched himself out of Clark onto the grass and transformed back, his ghost form unable to keep up. However, he didn't pass out cold like usual. "Oh, man, I hurt. Good thing you're so sturdy, Clark."
Clark also collapsed into the grass, for the first time in a while feeling dizzy. "Urgh, note to self, never let a ghost, especially you, overshadow me again," he moaned. His whole body ached from the workout Danny had given it.
Lois had been smart enough to grab the Specter Deflector and some rope that Clark and Danny had brought along with them and bound Vlad head to toe with the rope and secured the Deflector around Vlad's waist. "There, now you know what's it's like to be tied up," she said. She walked up to Clark and wrapped her arms around him, and kissed his cheek.
"Well, that overshadowing technique did save my life, so it wasn't too bad." Clark turned around to face her, and kissed her full on the mouth.
"Yuck! Couldn't you guys wait until we back to Amity Park to start the kissing thing?" Danny pretended to gag himself to death.
Lois and Clark looked at each other, and smiled. "Shall we go now, then?"
Danny jerked a thumb over his shoulder. "What about him?"
Lois and Clark looked at each other before grinning.
"I know the perfect place," said Lois.
"I tremble at your power," mocked Clark.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5 minutes later found Vlad on a deserted island in the Pacific, brooding, unable to get the Deflector off due to Clark's heat vision melting the clasp system.
"It wasn't enough that they beat me, and stuck this thing on me, but to dump me here too?" Vlad was furious. "I swear, I will have revenge on Lois Lane, Clark Kent, and Superman!"
A coconut fell on his head at that moment. "Ouch!" he shouted, rubbing his head. Looking up, he saw a monkey with a grin on his face. And another coconut poised in his hands.
"Oh, fudge buckets!" Vlad screamed, running as far away from the deranged monkey as he possibly could.
"I will have my revenge!" he yelled to the heavens as he ran.

Hee, hee. Oh, boy, that was funny. Now, if I get, say, five reviews on this chapter before tonight, I will go ahead and upload the epilogue. But I do warn you, that chapter will leave you with wanting to see another chapter. Sorry, but that'll be the end of this story. But hey, every cloud has a silver lining right?
