"Okay is everyone in position, and can everyone here me?" Danny asked.
"Yup. This is Goth Girl." Aka Sam.
"This is Techno, and affirmative."
"I can hear you loud and clear DP, it's Big sis by the way."
Danny grinned.
"Great then let's get this party started. Alright team your going invisible in 3...2...1. And now going intangible in 3...2...1. Alright team go though and meet me where I said." Danny closed his eyes and concentrated on his powers flowing through his friends and sister.
"Affirmative."
"Roger that."
"You got it."
"This is Goth Girl reporting. Where in."
Alright that was Danny's cue to go. Danny tuned into his ghost half. He was a bit taller in this ghost form too. Danny walked up to the giant wooden doors. There where four guards there. Once he got closer a guard put his hand out to stop Phantom.
"State your business."
"If you lay a finger on me, then you can kiss your good old hand goodbye." Danny snapped his eyes where glowing a venomous green.
The guard slowly lowered his hand.
"Now let me in or we will do this the hard way."
The guards raised their ecto guns. Danny grinned showing his fangs.
"Then the hard way it shall be." Danny fired an ecto blast at one of the guards. Then they began to fire at him. Danny dodged each bullet. "Hey watch this." Danny raised his hands and there ecto guns fell at the Ghost Kings feet. He then smashed the weapons with his boot. "Anyone else? Good." Danny then passed through the guards and pushed open. Danny immediately got fired at, but he thankfully to his heightened senses he could doge each bulled easily. He fired ecto blasts at each man. Eventually one man was left. Danny approached him allowing his ghostly fear radiate off of him. The man dropped his weapon and ran screaming like a child. Danny laughed.
"My oh my, Phantom, you have really changed since we last met."
Danny turned to the source of the voice which was behind him. There stood a man with red eyes and pale white skin. A black cloak covered his body, and his staff in his hand. But the orb was gone. Strange.
"Hello Freak Show." Danny smiled showing his fangs.
"What a dramatic entrance by the way. You know you could have just knocked."
"What do you want clown?" Danny snapped.
"Hmm strait to business. I like it."
That's when a another cloaked figure came next to Freak Show. She had tattoos all over her body.
"Lydia." Danny smiled. "Here to join the fun?"
"Alright then. We want to show you something Phantom." Freak Show grinned.
This will be interesting. Danny though to himself.
"Lead the way." He's gloved hand gestured.
Danny knew Freak Show was up to something so he had to be ready for the worst.
"Danny we made it to the tent. Be carful. I don't see anything here. But you know it's Freak show where talking about. Techno out."
"I'm almost there. I am with Freak Show and Lydia." He whispered.
Good they made it safely and hopefully out of harms way.
Lydia and Freak Show entered the tent. And Danny did to.
The tent had many bleachers that gave of a silver reflection when the light hit it just right. And bright lights. He could sense the presence of his friends. There in the center off the tent was a giant sand pit. Freak Show and Lydia walked in that direction. The Ghost king followed close behind. Danny was now in the middle of the sand pit when Freak Show spoke;
"Stay here." Danny knew this was a trap and he was ready for it. Honestly? How dumb did this man think he was. The Ghost and the evil Ring Master walked off the sand.
"You are a fool phantom." Freak Show spoke and pulled out a remote.
"Get out of there Danny!" Jazz said over the intercom. Danny held his hand to his side knowing that Jazz could see him. It signaled for her that everything was going according to plan. Freak show pressed a button and immediately a ghost proof cage formed around the sand pit trapping the king inside.
"This was too easy Phantom."
"A ghost cage... cute." Danny chuckled to himself. His tail whipping around and hitting the back of his long cape.
"Oh but you don't understand. I brought a few friends." Freak Show announced.
Then the flaps of the tent began to open as men and women began to file in. The GIW. Danny smiled. This is gonna be fun.
"Phantom captured as promised. Now, a deals a deal."
"Right." A man spoke, as he approached the Ring Master. "Here."
The man handed Freak Show something gold. Danny immediately recognized it. The reality gauntlet. Freak Show put it on. But he had no crystals. How unfortunate.
"Do whatever you want with him I don't care." Freakshow added.
Danny walked over to the bars and grasped them.
"I wouldn't touch those they are loaded with 1,365 volts of electricity." The ring master warned.
"Hmm really?" Danny began to pull apart the bars.
"H-how in the hell?" One of the agents spoke.
"WELL DON'T JUST STAND THERE IDIOTS! DO SOMETHING!" Freak Show screamed.
The men began to fire but Danny just created shield blocking there attempts. The Ghost king realized the ring masters attempt to escape. He will worry about him later.
"Are you done?" Danny began to float. "Good now it's my turn." Danny made a yanking motion with his hand disarming an entire squad, then afterwords clenched his fish breaking there guns. More guards came. Danny landed and marched after them. He grabbed a mans head, and hit him against his knee and used his body to attack four guards knocking them all out. Danny teleported behind a squad and fired ecto blasts right through there chests. This was to easy. That's when he felt something hit him on the shoulder. It stung like hell but didn't let it phase him. Danny whipped around. His eyes where red from anger.
"Who did that?!" He yelled. There was a woman behind him. She seemed terrified but didn't move. Her ecto gun was steaming from the shot. Danny summoned an ice dagger and froze her with his telekinesis. She was helpless. Walking closer the king didn't hesitate to stab her in the stomach. And the unfortunate women dropped dead.
Danny turned invisible and teleported back to the ring to search for the coward, Freak Show. But he was no where to be seen. Danny shrugged. He can teleport to wherever he wants. But not create portals. Danny teleported right by the tent the ring master was in.
He barged in.
"Your wasting my time!" Danny yelled. His hair began to move like fire as he used the power the rings power to his benefit. Lydia growled and tried to attack the king, but he just held up up his hand and began choking her. Gasping for air, the girl clawed at the invisible force that was slowly killing her.
"Phantom put her down!" Freak Show gasped turning to the Ghost king.
"I will give you one chance Freak Show. One. Where is the relic at?" The Ring master gulped.
"I will make a deal. You release her I give you the Relic."
Danny growled an inhumane growl.
"I will spare her if you hand it to me first."
The Ghost was loosing her bright aura she will die.
"Think fast the clock is ticking,"
"Very well." The man grabbed something from the table, and approached Danny. But before Danny could register what happened, Freak Show drew a dagger into Danny's side. He gasped at the sudden shock and lost his power over the girl. She fell gasping for breath.
"I don't care if she dies." Freak Show whispered and ran out of the tent.
Danny pulled the dagger from his waist. Ectoplasm mixed with his red blood dripped from it, but Danny could already feel the wound slowly healing but the immense pain remained. This cut wasn't going to seal any time soon. Danny looked down at the weapon. His blood dripping from the blade. The dagger was a beautiful one. It was black and had a red gem on the hilt and flower pattern engravings. Danny twirled that dagger and growled. His blood still covers he blade as he wondered how the heck could something hurt him this bad. He stormed out of the tent and roared the Ring masters name using a bit of his ghostly wail to echo it through the forest. The ground shook. Freak Show didn't make it that far before turning to the ghost. Danny teleported right to him and grabbed him by the shirt lifting him up off the ground. Danny caught the sight of his two friends and sister coming out of the tent.
"Give me one good reason why I shouldn't kill you right now."
"How are you still alive? Oh well, it doesn't matter now does it?" Freak Show smiled.
The sun began to rise over the trees allowing light into the circus.
"I will give you three seconds."
"You want the gauntlet right? I will give it to you!" That wasn't what he was after. His grip tightened.
"Three..."
"You would never kill a single soul, Danny would you? Your just as soft as you where before you where crowned king."
"Two..." Fear spread over the mans face, as Danny's grip on his neck got tighter.
"Danny stop! This isn't you!" He heard Sam cry.
"You heard the girl! Don't do this!" Freak Show choked out. His grip tightened.
That's when Danny saw her face. Fear. Her purple eyes projected fear. Fear towards Danny. And it scared him. She looked at him like a wild animal. He just killed off a whole GIW team without thought. He almost killed a ghost. He almost killed a man. A human. Danny took one look at Sam and then back at Freak Show. He was turning into Dan, and that thought disgusted him. Danny growled again.
"This is your last warning. Tell me where the relic is at."
"That tent! Right there!" He gasped pointing at a tent. Danny narrowed his red eyes and gripped his neck tighter before tossing the man on the rocky ground. Freak Show gasped for air and his neck began to bruise up.
"Danny!" The trio cried.
"Danny your bleeding!" His sister cried noticing the dagger in his left hand and the wound on his waist. Danny's eyes reverted back to green and his hair stoped flaming.
"If freak Show wasn't such an idiot, he would have aimed for my core." Danny spoke softly hugging Jazz, than Sam.
"We helped take out some agents." Tucker announced proudly.
"Good work team. And I am sorry. I guess I understand now where Pariah got some of his anger from." Danny looked down sadly. Sam knew what Danny was getting at.
"Danny you stop right there. You are not a monster like Pariah Dark and you will never become like him. You are Phantom for god sake. You took out the GIW and stopped a bad guy from taking over the ghost zone and controlling every ghost in there in a night. And for that, I say is a win for team Phantom. You did good. Your kingdom will be proud of you. I am proud of you." Sam stood up on her tippy toes and pecked the king on the cheek. "I love you Danny. And I will always no matter what."
"I love you to Sam." He smiled.
"Uh guys I hate to ruin this beautiful moment but uh, where did the Freak go?" Tucker asked. Danny looked at where the Ring Master was lying. But he was gone. His green eyes widened.
"Dammit! We need to get to the tent now!" Danny yelled.
"He's going for the relic!" Sam cried as she spotted Freak Show entering the tent.
Okay there you go! Next chapter coming sooooon ;)
