Chapter 9: Search for the stone
Previously
"We must get to Clockwork...what is the time right now?..."Starfire asked the gothic girl.
"It's 2:00pm...sunset is four hours away, which means we have that much time to get to Clockwork, get that stone and fix Danny..."Sam said.,
"But I cannot go into the ghost zone, the last time that I was there, my emotions went out of control..."Starfire said in worry, before Sam grabbed her by the shoulders and looked her in the eye.
"We'll figure something out, come on, we don't have any time to waste..."Sam said seriously.
Starfire blinked, before nodding. What matters now is getting to Clockwork and finding that stone to free Danny.
Starfire once again picked Sam up and soon the two were on their way back to Fenton Works to get to the portal.
They had to get that stone and fast, before it's too late.
Sam and Starfire wasted no time in returning to Fenton Works.
The two girls went to the lab and to their surprise, they saw a weeping Danny who was turned from them, with a bored looking Jazz and Tucker there.
"Uh, what's going on?..."Sam asked, getting a hunch.
"What is wrong?..."Starfire asked.
Suddenly, Danny flinched.
"T-That voice! Kory! You're back!..."Danny shouted as he turned his head to see her but struggled as he tried to look at her.
"Let's just say that he missed you..."Tucker said as he turned Danny around.
Once again, he got a lovey dovey look on his face when he saw Starfire.
"My sweet Kory, you're even prettier than I remember..."Danny sighed romantically, while everyone sighed in irritation.
"Why was he weeping?..."Starfire asked, seeing the tear stains on his eyes.
"Like we said, he missed you..."Jazz said ans Starfire looked concern.
"Oh my sweet space princess, don't ever leave me again..."Danny said with that creepy, lovesick look on his face.
If it's possible, he seemed even more lovesick than he was earlier.
"That fiendish genie like ghost was right...he is getting worse..."Starfire thought in worry as she was the look in her boyfriend's eyes.
He is having the wrong kind of feelings right now and he can't do anything about it.
"So, did you guys find Desiree?...:Tucker asked.
"We have and we got good news and bad news..."Sam said.
"Good news...we found a way to fix Danny...bad news, we got to go into the Ghost Zone to get it..."Sam replied.
"Wait? What?..."Jazz asked confused.
Sam and Starfire then began to explain about the undo stone and how Clockwork seems to be the only one to has it.
"That's...weirdly convenient..."Tucker pointed out.
"How is it convenient?..."Starfire asked.
"At least it's with a guy we actually know..."Tucker said optimistically.
"There is another thing..."Starfire said, looking down.
"What is it?...'Jazz asked, getting nervous.
"If we do not retrieve the stone and give it to Danny before the sun sets...then..."Starfire then looked at Danny, who was still looking every bit like a love zombie.
It was actually scaring her.
"He will be like this...forever..."Starfire said sadly as her boyfriend continued to look at her in ways that she did not want.
Under these circumstances anyway.
Later
Team Phantom wasted no time is loading up the Specter Speeder.
"Okay, so the undo stone is in Clockwork's tower...just like earlier, two of us should go and the other two stay and keep an eye on Danny..."Sam said.
"Right..."Tucker said.
"Okay, Tuck and I will go into the ghost zone and-
"No..."Starfire said suddenly.
"Excuse me?...'Sam said, not liking this.
"I must go...I had done this and I must fix this..."Starfire said, looking down.
"But Starfire, Danny told me that the last time you were there, you went nuts..."Tucker said.
"I know but I have no choice...I must fix my mistake...please..."Starfire pleaded.
Sam sent her a glare, but she saw that she really wanted to do this and she felt she had some ethical duty to do this.
"As if I am going to be crammed alone in the Specter Speecter with her..."Sam thought.
She was about to shoot her down, only for Danny to go on another lovesick bout.
"Oh Starfire, my tantalizing extraterrestrial beauty..."Danny said in a romantic tone, which, to be honest, Starfire was beginning to get sick of.
"What is it, Danny?..."Starfire sighed and he just kept drooling over her.
"I love it when you call me that..."Danny sighed and Sam frowned even harder upon hearing that.
"On the other hand, Danny will just keep trying to romance her if she stays..."Sam thought, not liking that either.
"Fine, you can come, but I know the Ghost Zone better, so what I say goes..."Sam said with her arms crossed.
Starfire nodded.
"Thank you..."Was all she said to the goth girl, who just sent her that frown once more.
Once the ship was fueled up and both girls had the necessary weaponry, Tucker activated the map.
"Okay, this should guide you to Clockwork's Tower without much trouble..."Tucker said.
"I just hope that I am able to remain focus during our mission..'Starfire said with a worried look.
"If you are going to be like this, I can go by myself..."Sam said and Starfire shook her head.
"No, I have to do this...but if I begin to act as the love crazy, please try and keep me focus..."Starfire said to Sam.
The goth girl smirked as the little alien princess had no way of knowing what she had just offered her.
"Oh, don't worry...I will do everything it takes to keep you focus..."Sam said, liking this more and more.
Starfire had stepped into the Specter Speeder and that is when Danny stopped acting all lovey dovey and started getting worried again.
"Wait? Kory? What are you doing? You can't leave me again!..."Danny shouted and Starfire actually started rolling her eyes right now
She loves him but this behaviour is both worrisome and down right annoying now!
"Do not fret, darling! I will return with a cure..."Starfire said but Danny started crying again.
"Take me with you!..."He pleaded.
"No, I have to get that stone and I cannot risk myself becoming...distracted again..."Starfire said as Danny was practically blubbering right now.
"You know that he is going to be like this the entire time that you are gone..."Tucker said with his arms crossed.
Starfire was both getting worried, unnerved and a little guilty.
The only reason that he is acting like this is her fault...
Maybe she could do or say something to calm him down until she gets back with the cure.
"Do not worry darling...I promise that I will be back, I just really need to do this.."Starfire said, and Danny stopped crying long enough to listen.
"But that's too long for us to be apart..."Danny whined.
Starfire was getting impatient, until she got an idea.
"If you promise to wait patiently and calm until I come back, I promise to give you an extra special kiss once everything is over..."Starfire said with a flirtatious tone.
"How special?..."Danny couldn't help but ask, still hypnotized by her.
Starfire hated doing this...okay, she didn't hate it but she hated the circumstances but she is desperate.
The alien princess then gently kissed him on the cheek, which made him even crazier and the only good thing is that he is tied up right now and couldn't act on it.
"The next one will be someplace else..."Starfire teased flirtatiously and just like that, he was putty in her hands.
"Kory..."He said in a lovesick trance as he was still out of it.
It actually concern her a bit. If a kiss on the cheek could have this kind of effect on him now...she was almost worried how wild he could get if he got more.
She didn't want to think about it.
She just knew that she had to get that stone and fast.
She then turned to Danny's friends and sister. Sam was sending her a disgusted look and Starfire only had this to say.
"It was the only way to keep him calm..."She said.
"Of course it is..."Sam said sarcastically as she sat in the driver's seat.
Starfire soon sat in the passenger seat while Tucker and Jazz opened the portal. Sam wasted no time in flooring it and they went in the portal.
They were off now.
It's a race against time.
They had to get to Clockwork's tower, retrieve the undo stone and cure Danny before it's too late.
Oh boy...
