*Amity Park 6:00 pm*
Flying seem to be the one thing that clears my mind after such a stupid day at school. Ever since I found Spectra in the hallway two weeks ago, she seemed to look cleaner. What I mean is that her complexion and skin to be smoother than when I talked to her back at the office. And this was not because I got all aroused from her and now know what she looks like. No, this was something involving her powers...Digressing to a not so off topic, the bullying from Dash never seemed to stop, which was expected; but for some reason, it just got so much worse.
It began with the usual name calling like Fenturd or Emo-niel. However after a few days, he began to push my shoulder as he walked by me, while tearing my bag from my back. I knew we didn't see eye to eye, but I didn't expected to be jumped in the hallway by him and his ass clown of friends. If I didn't have my ghost powers I would be in the emergency room for christ's sake!
That wasn't the worst part though, no...the worst part of it was when I saw all the teachers and staff not bat one eye. opened the door to his class as I was in the process of getting beaten, and proceeded to close it not even ten second afterwards. Principal Ishiyama even stood there with a coffee watching it as if it were saturday morning cartoons. OH and don't even get me started with the person who stood there with the biggest smile on her face...Penelope FUCKING Spectra.
I have the reason to think that she influenced Dash in order to bully me. Reason for such an accusation? Well one, she looks younger and TWO, she feeds on the emotional turmoils of teens, and what better teen to feed on than the Emo-loner Danny Fenton? This day if you couldn't tell, has been COMPLETELY AS-
I was broken from my thoughts as a familiar blue wisp escaped my mouth. 'Great, I need a stress reliever after the day I just had.' Flying down to a nearby technology store. 'Weird place for a ghost to be at…' I thought as I phased into the store,which currently was in a muck at the moment with so much people running scared from whatever they've seen.
Turning my attention forward, I see a tall green man with long white hair that was waved back defying gravity. He was wearing a white lab coat that had a white dress shirt and black tie, with long green gloves finishing his outfit. On a side note, he also has eyes that seemed to resemble sunglasses.
That's when he decided to acknowledge my presence. "So you're the new ghost that everyone has been hearing about...defeated both Skulker and the Great Box Ghost...I must say you don't look like much to me." His voice had such a nasally sound to it, I couldn't help but want to punch him in his face.
"I could say the same to you, besides the green skin and pre-pubescent, you'd pull off a really good Doc Brown." I smirked when I saw his eye twitch at being called pre-pubescent. "The names Danny...Phantom...don't forget." I snapped while making a gun sign, adding a wink to sweeten the deal.
His eye twitched again. "You annoying pest, I-"
"OH wait! Is this the part where you reveal your name to be something like The Great Computer Ghost! Beware!" mimicking the Box Ghosts hand gestures. His eyes were now both spazzing with irritation. "No, no I got it now, you're the Professor, Greatest Deleter of Computer and text history! Hunted every porn file possible and downloaded it ILLEGALLY" This time I mimicked Skulker. "How abou-" I was cut off as I dodged a laptop being thrown at me. 'Oooo he's pissed.'
"I NICOLAI TECHNUSthe master of all technolo-" before being cut off by my wheezing. I was rolling on the floor balling my eyes out. "YES! You see your mistake now child! You will finally see the true power of a Ghost!
"N-no…" I said while slowly standing up. "It's just your name sounded like a disease...I AM TETANUS" I mimicked him now, waving back my hair to resemble his. He was currently at the peak of losing it, if all the floating parts of phones and computers were any indication. Without warning all of the parts came flying at me, stacking on top of one another in a huge pile.
Smirking, Technus let out a victory laugh. "That's what you get Brat! You were no dog, just a puppy with a huge bark." Pffft did he forget that we were ghosts? Quickly phasing out of the ground, I tapped him on the shoulder. "Huh? Oh Cra-" My fist clashed with his face, sending him flying to the pile he tried to crush me with.
"You must be pretty dumb, if you thought I couldn't just phase out of there." I said nonchalantly as he fumed with anger.
"You impudent Brat dare call Technus UNINTELLIGENT!"
"Yeah, what if I di- AHHHHHH!" pain coursed through my entire body as I was hit with lightning coming from machines all around me. "AHHHHHH" The lab coat wearing ghost smiled with glee, seeing that he finally had the ghost child in a noose. 'W-why can't I phase?' He finally relented his assault to gloat, giving me time to get some time to recuperate.
"You may have had given me a solid punch, but that was all you were going to get you insufferable embryo, now DIE!" Looking at him directly in the eye, I began to go intangible, only to once again feel the pain appear all over my body. "OH! So you died by electricity you say?" As my screams were were thrown everywhere. "Wonderful…" finishing off with an evil look in his eye.
Remember when I said I've never felt such an unbearable pain like this before during the accident? Yeah well think of that but instead of it happening for a few seconds, try minutes. 'I'm going to die, if I don't do anything!' I thought with desperation as I forced my eye open. 'He said I died by electrocution...AHHH...then that means, I can't phase through electrical attacks...gasp… have to distract him.' I pointed my finger in his direction. 'Gotta do this right...Ungh...only one shot. Focusing as hard as I could a yellow beam erupted from my finger, hitting squarely on Technus's nose, stunning him for a few second.
"You uncivil punk! When I get my hands on you, You're gonna rue the day you messed with TECHNUS!" I phased into the ground as he ranted. 'THINK QUICKLY DANNY' I thought to myself as he covered himself in a tornado of static electricity. 'Fucking fantastic'
He kept looking around for me as I looked for an opening. 'Can't hit the sides unless I use a range attack...fuck it lets try it.' I phased into a wall where I waited for him to turn his ba- 'NOW' I fired a green ecto-blast towards him, where he was thrown off balance. 'Get him away from the technology.'I fired another blast which hit his already disoriented body, sending him flying only to hit the wall.
"Come on Einstein, we're going for a little walk." I grabbed his body and soon took to the skies where I span around and threw his body away where it hit a nearby roof. Seeing him getting up I began firing ecto-blasts at him, progressively getting closer.
"Y-you can not beat me! I'm the great Technus!" At this point he was attempting to fight back, key word attempting because every shot he took would either fly past me or go into another direction. "Y-you…" His eyes now wide in recognition as I grabbed his lab coat and pulled him in close.
"You know what?" As I charged my right hand with ecto energy. "I'll test your hypothesis." I said as I began a beating he couldn't escape from.
CRACK!
CRACK!
KRRRK!
"Damn that sounded important." I said casually breaking his nose while continuing the beating.
SPLAT!
"Grossss, now I need to wash my hand." With blood dripping down my knuckles as a bruised and badly beaten Technus could be seen. His nose slightly crooked where it had broke, his lip swollen with his eyes where you can see bruises forming. Blood profusely leaking from the nasal passages.
"P-please...M-mercy…" His shaded eyes pleaded with me as I held my charged fist still covered with his blood.
"Mercy!? Where was that when I was being bombarded with lightning?" My eyes narrowed with anger as they turned from green to red. Reeling my fist back "No...not with the pain you put me through…" I was about to punch him in the face when I was thrown back by a green colored wolf.
Said wolf was now looking at the battered body of Technus with grimace "You pathetic creature, If Spectra didn't need you, I'd end you myself." The wolf quickly grabbing Technus.
Standing up finally, I was about to fly after them when they disappeared into the breezy night air as if not ever existing at all. 'Damn it...can this day get any worse?' As if on cue the sky began to weep, drenching me from the top down. "I was FUCKING kidding!" I yelled towards the sky that flashed lightning as if to taunt me of my recent failure at not ending the tech ghost.
*Casper High: After hours*
Soon the wolf phased through the office of Penelope Spectra, where he finally let go of technus. It's finally revealed that the wolf was actually Bertrand, who shape shifted into a wolf in order to subdue Danny.
"Ngh!" Technus's pained groan could be heard as he was roughly dropped into the ground of the office, still leaking blood. Bertrand then took a towel out of his bag and proceeded to throw it on the downed ghost's face.
"Clean up, can't have such a broken face near the Perfect Spectra."
Suddenly a familiar face phased through the wall of the school in her usual red suit outfit. She looked towards Bertrand who merely nodded his head at the red head. She smiled and walked to the technology ghost who was slowly wiping the blood from his swollen face.
Cringing in disgust, she took one step back before gaining back her baring and put a smile back on her face. "Technus… we have so much to discuss." She said in her flirtatious voice. Technus however was not amused by this voice and proceeded to snap his nose back into place.
"And what exactly is that, Succubus?" He said with a little disdain in his voice.
"Oh but of course our little halfa ghost child problem!" She said with a smirk as she saw the anger flash through his eyes.
"What do you want to know?" He asked bitterly for being beaten by the young halfling not even a an hour ago.
"Does he have any weaknesses? Anything to watch out for?" She replied with a calculative tone, her previous playful mood gone.
"What exactly do I get out of this information if I tell you?"
"I was first going to say that you weren't going to be killed by me and you get live the rest of your pathetic afterlife." She said with a green fire igniting in her palm before being crushed in her first. "But then I thought, why not offer you a chance at redemption? And kill the Ghost child yourself."
Technos now seemed invested for the thought of revenge. "Hmmm…" He made his decision. "He died from electrocution, so the smartest way to defeat him is electrical attacks." Spectra nodded her head in confirmation, both her and Bertrand didn't have that type of attack, which leads only to one conclusion.
"So you are going to be the one who traps and deals with him as I achieve my plan." Technus nodded with a bit of confusion.
"And exactly what is that plan?"
"I'm going to steal all the emotional energy from all the people in this school to achieve my full maximum power, with that I can beat everyone who stands before me." Her eyes gleaming with hunger at the thought of the power.
"But I get the boy?" Technus not all that affected by Spectra's proclamation, after all she hasn't shown to be powerful. It was like saying a ant followed by ten others could take down a waterhose. He was just more powerful than her to care.
"Of course!" She said going back to her cheerful mood.
"Where do we start?" Technus asks with his eyes now narrowed.
*Ghost Zone Clock Tower*
The image of Daniel's eye fully turning red and not turning back to green seemed to intrigue one blue cloaked ghost and three of his visitors. His visitor having eyeballs for heads with white tunics and black cloaks.
"CLOCKWORK! You must eliminate the Phantom he has seem to already gone to the dark." One of the visitors asserted with confidence.
The visitor to the right began to plead. "Please Clockwork, you already know what happened to the other one...HE destroyed both the human and ghost worlds! Must we suffer through this again?
Finally the middle visitor stepped forward. "This has proven unfruitful and bare, The Phantom has already chose his path. What is it that you will do Clockwork?"
"You Observers worry too much." The now named Clockwork stated in a monotone voice. "I understand your perspective on the situation, but you never looked at the bigger picture…" the screen like portal flashed to Daniel in his ghost form running into a burning house.
"DANNY SAVE ME!" A feminine voice was heard as on screen a human like figure was on fire.
Danny had a look of desperation as smoke filled his lungs, tears running down the sides of his face as he ran up the stairs. He tried to open the door to feel it locked, so he kept ramming into attempting for it to open. "OPEN UP!" And at the final moment, he managed to bust through it to save the person who's under a ignited wooden beam, carrying her bridal style.
He attempted to head to where he entered through originally, but the exit was blocked with more burning pillars. With only one way out, he kissed the person on her forehead and leaped through a nearby window where-...The screen then paused as soon as Daniel flung himself through the window with the person.
"You see, at the moment the young Daniel has all the great power he needs in order to become the great hero we'll need him to be in the future...but he needs to find a reason to be responsible with the power...to find something worth protecting…" The image flashing to the person in Daniel's arms. "...to find what it takes to BE the Hero."
