Spiderman stretched his back as the large group exited the plane. It had been a cramped flight what with Nick Fury's insistence that Spiderman and his team bringing back up agents. Spiderman really didn't see the need for so many agents. It was one guy. Okay, yeah, he was a ghost but he was still only one person.
"So, how are we finding this guy?" Spiderman asked loudly as the plane entered its cloaking programme in the middle of the park. Coulson shrugged.
"We don't really have a plan, other than walking around and looking for him. We have very little intel on Phantom," he admitted. Spiderman groaned as they split into small teams. Best get this over with.
It didn't take long before they heard screams. Spiderman, White Tiger and Coulson ran to the scene and spotted Danny Phantom firing green energy at a squat blue man floating in the air.
"You cannot defeat the Box Ghost!" the floating man declared cockily.
"Oh, really? Since when?" Danny Phantom asked with a smirk. He then lunged at the Box Ghost and punched the ghost down to the ground before producing a metal thermos with green detailing. Phantom then pointed it at the Box Ghost.
"Say hi to the others for me," Danny remarked as a blue stream of light engulfed the ghost.
"Oh, poop," the ghost muttered before he screamed as he was pulled inside.
Danny Phantom slammed the lid on the thermos and he clipped it to his belt. He absentmindedly rolled his shoulders.
"Can't I have one day off?" he grumbled to himself and sighed deeply. Spiderman glanced at Coulson and rolled his eyes under the mask. They needed to talk the ghost into coming back to the tricarrier, that meant they should actually talk to the guy rather than gape at him.
"So, are we gonna talk to him then?" Spiderman announced as he stepped forward towards the ghost. Coulson quickly tapped him on the shoulder.
"Wait a moment Spiderman. We should call for backup first," Coulson replied seriously.
Spiderman huffed in annoyance as Coulson started to talk into a communicator.
"Stop right there!" a male voice commanded. Spiderman, White Tiger and Coulson froze in surprise. Danny Phantom frowned in annoyance and turned to the source of the shout.
"Can't you leave me alone?" the ghost grumbled.
"Leave a ghost alone? That would violate code 345 sub section alpha 4," one of the two men in white suits informed the ghost. Then both men pulled out guns and pointed them at the ghost.
Before anyone could react, one of the men in white suits fired at the ghost and he dodged the shot.
"Coulson, we need to get in there!" Spiderman exclaimed in alarm. Coulson nodded and then turned to see their back up coming towards them. Spiderman leapt into action as Danny was shot in the shoulder and fell into a nearby tree trunk. Spiderman and his team jumped in between the ghost and the two men in suits. Danny blinked in surprise as he recovered from the hit. Then the remaining agents filed in to further protect the ghost.
"Stand down! You are getting in the way of our business," one of the men growled angrily. Danny floated a little away from the tree but remained where he was and didn't speak.
"Actually you are interfering with our business," Coulson replied firmly.
"That is a level 7 ectoplasmic entity. We have an obligation to take it into custody and eradicate it on behalf of the American government," the other man informed Coulson coldly. Coulson raised an eyebrow and pulled out his SHIELD badge and held it up to the two men.
"By orders of the director of SHIELD, Nick Fury. The Guys in White are ordered to stand down," Coulson told them sternly. The two men stared at the badge and then glanced at Danny and then back to Coulson before grumbling to themselves as they walked away. One of the men glanced back at Danny and shot him a dirty look.
"We'll get you next time Phantom. Count on it," he warned the ghost before disappearing off into the distance.
"Hey, thanks for that. I could have handled them but the help is appreciated," Danny called to Coulson as he turned to leave.
"Wait. We need to bring you in to SHIELD," Coulson informed Danny. Danny turned back to the agent and frowned in thought.
"I guess I can trust you guys not to cage me or whatever since you're asking me in a roundabout way instead of shooting at me… Lead the way," Danny decided and landed on the ground, finally noticing the heroes in front of him. He gaped at them briefly before shaking his head and smiling at them.
"Oh, hi. Wow, didn't expect to meet superheroes today," Danny admitted sheepishly.
A typical day in Amity Park.
Let me know what you guys think so far.
Until the next chapter.
