Remember: A father`s daughter

Pariah Dark

Shout out to GhostsRmyfriends

"S…. stop…. Don't….." Aria mumbled in fear, she managed to stand and run away a few feet before Pariah punched her down to the ground.

"This is Danny Phantom's kid?! How pathetic!" he shouted and laugh walking towards her, "I expected more of a challenge"

"Leave me alone!" Aria shouted standing up and holding her back slightly, "I…. I don't want to die!"

"You will die, foolish child," Pariah said smiling at her opening his hand with a bright green appearing. Aria gasps and started to shake, she closed her eyes and felt. She breathes heavily and felt a sharp pain in her lower stomach, she held her side and looked away.

"Leave... Me…. ALONE!" Aria shouted holding her side and felt a strange force pushing Pariah dark back; Aria stops and blinks for a second seeing him stumble back slightly.

"No time to wonder how!" Aria went turn back human and phased through the wall, she quickly turned back ghost once she was outside and flew away. She held her side slightly as she frantically flew away, she looked back and heard Pariah Dark shouting.

"Oh shit!" Aria shouted seeing a strange fire suddenly appearing from the castle and following her. Aria closed her eyes and held her side, she grunted as the pain slowed her down.

"Come on….." Aria thought to open her eyes slightly, she looked back seeing the green fire approach her. Pariah shouted in rage and easily caught up to her, he fired a ghost ray and struck Aria in the back. Aria shouted in pain and hit the ground, she got up slightly when she was suddenly held down by her neck.

"I have no idea what that power was!" Pariah said tightening his grip around her neck, "But you're going to regret it"

Aria held his hand and tried to free herself, she groans as she let go and started to see blackness. Aria closed her eyes, she felt her consciousness weaken, she heard someone shouting before she passed out.

"Danny Phantom!" Pariah shouted dropping Aria to the ground and avoiding another plasma ball, "Well, well, here to save your brat?!"

"Don't touch her!" Danny shouted creating a clone, "How the hell is you free?!"

"Your brat freed me," he said laughing slightly as he watched the clone pick up Aria, "Hard to believe you found someone, who wanted to sleep with you"

"I don't have time to fight him" Danny looked back at Aria's unconscious state, he was concern about her wellbeing. Danny's eyes glowed brightly as he slowly back away, he had to escape and get Aria to safety. "This is bad, this is really bad….. he's the second worst enemy I faced…." Danny looked around and tried to find something to make a division.

"I'm going to kill your brat and then you," Pariah said as he opened his hands and summon two skeletons.

"His powers are much weaker….. for now," Danny frown and glared at him, he slowly back away and motioned the clone to do the same. "Why are he's powered weak?!" Danny moved his foot slightly and notice how dusty the ground was. Danny smiled as he got an idea, he took a firm stance and shouted his ghostly wail. He smiled seeing the dusty on the ground being picked up and was thrown into Pariah's face, blinding him.

"Now" Danny whispered taking Aria in his arms and quickly flying away, "Hopefully this will slow him down"

The clone stayed behind and fired another ghostly wail, he suddenly infused inside Pariah's body. Pariah glared as he watched Danny make his escape, he closed his eyes and leaving the Ghost Zone.

"UGH!" Pariah shouted and clenched his fist, "This is far from over"

"I need to gather my strength," Pariah thought flying back to his castle, "And once I do, I can get my ring and crown back"

Fenton's home

Danny quickly landed and phased through the wall, he held her close and placed her on the ground. He got up quickly got a pillow and placed it under her head, he placed his finger on her neck and checked if she had a pulse.

"Danny, did you find Ari…." Ember said as she walked into the room and saw Aria on the ground, "Aria!"

Ember quickly went to the ground and held her hand, she looked at Danny as he held his fingers on her neck.

"She's alright," Danny said sighing in relief, "She's alright, Ember"

"Thank goodness," Ember said covering her mouth with her hand and looked down at her.

"Its Pariah Dark" Danny mumbled looking down at his daughter and held her hand, "He's back"

"What?" Ember asked in shock, she knew Pariah Dark very well from the countless stories she heard from Danny and the rest of the world.

"He must have tricked her," Danny said noticing a bruise forming on her neck

"But I thought he needed the key to open it?" Ember asked

"There's another way to open the coffin…." Danny explained and moved some of Aria's hair, "With enough power…. The person who sealed him away can also free him"

"And because Aria is your daughter…she was able open the coffin" Ember whispered and whip a few tears away, "Dammit… how did he know about her?!"

"I have no idea," Danny said holding Ember's hand, "But we have to be careful, now"

"Of course, we will," Ember said gently rubbing Aria's hand, "I can try out that new device you made me"

"I hope it works," Danny said smiling at her

Lockwood family's main estate - A few days later

"Sir, there is a visitor for you," a butler said as he moved aside to let Atticus out.

"Thank you," Atticus said smiling at him as he headed downstairs, he saw the opened door and sighed in frustration seeing Ashton.

"Atticus," he said and glared at him

"Ashton," Atticus said glaring at him, "What the hell are you doing here?! You know you're not allowed!"

"I just wanted to say hello," Ashton said and laugh slightly, "And letting you know….. that Aria will be mine"

"I'm warning you, Ashton! Stay away from, Aria!" Atticus said grabbing his shirt and clenching it, "Do you hear me?!"

Atticus knew Ashton had a reputation for being a lady's man, the girls drooled over him and thought he was a prince charming but knew the truth.

"Now, now, is this the infamous Lockwood's hospitality? We're family, aren't we?" Ashton asked and smirk.

"Why are you here?!" he asked pushing him back, "You're not supposed to be at the main estate!"

"What's with you and the main Lockwood family?!" Ashton asked and glaring at him, "Are you afraid I'll steal that little hottie from you?!"

"You may have everyone else fooled about your true bloodline, but I know the person you really are!" Atticus said pointing at him, "Your parents would be ashamed of what you've become!"

"Don't you ever mention them again!" Ashton shouted pushing him back, "EVER! Listen here, Atticus! I tolerate you only because of our father's association with their companies but that's it! I blame you and the main family for what you've done to the side branch!"

"How is this my fault?" Atticus asked

"Because you're the next head," Ashton said walking away from the estate, "To hell with the main family!"

Fenton's home

"Hello," Claire said as she stood in front of Fenton's front door, "Hm….. I don't mean to interrupt….. but is Aria home?"

"Oh, yes she is?" Danny said opening the door wider, "And you are?"

"Oh! Claire Rivers, nice to meet you" Claire said smiling at him and offering her hand, "I think you know my parents? Or dad at least,"

"Rivers? Hm…. Oh, your Andy's girl" Danny said snapping his fingers together, "Ah, yes! Welcome"

"Thanks," she said walking inside and was surprised to see the moderate home, "Wow…. I didn't expect this?"

"We get that a lot," Danny said laughing slightly, "Either way, Aria is in her bedroom. Third door on your left, knock before you enter, she currently resting from a recent injury"

"Thank you," Claire said as she followed his directions; Claire walked upstairs and knock on the third floor from the left, she waited for Aria to allow her in.

"Claire?" Aria asked a bit surprised to see her, "What are you doing here? And how did you find this place?"

"I did not follow your mom," Claire said and laugh slightly sitting down at her desk's chair, "And I did not bookmark your location on my phone"

Aria blinks slightly and started to laugh, she shook her head slightly and got out of bed. She pulled another chair and sat down beside her, she smiled at her and never thought she would have a friend over.

"Your dad said you were healing….? From what?" she asked and moved her hat slightly

"I accidently released a dangerous ghost" Aria mumbled looking down slightly, "An old foe from my dad's past… and now he has to deal with it"

"Man…. That sucks" Claire said shaking her head slightly, "Sorry about that, Aria"

"It's alright…" she said and smiled slightly

"You'll beat him," Claire said playing with a pencil which was on her desk. Aria smiled and remembered the confirmation she witnesses from Atticus and Ashton, she looked up at Claire and assume she would know since they were close.

"Claire," Aria said

"Yeah?" she asked looking back at her

"A few weeks ago, Atticus was arguing with someone," Aria said nervously moving her hands slightly, "And it was really intense"

"Who was it? Atticus usually gets along with everyone" Claire asked with a confused look, she never thought her cousin would argue with someone.

"Ashton Walker," Aria said hoping Claire would know him

"Ashton Walker?" Claire asked raising a brow slightly, "And Atticus was arguing with him?!"

"Yeah and it was weird," Aria said looking down and thinking back to their argument.

"It's Ashton Lockwood" Claire corrected sighing in annoyance as she looked up at her, "He's our cousin but he's a part of the side branch"

"What?" Aria asked in shock.

"He hates the main family because of what they did….." Claire said leaning back in her chair, "With his parents"

"What are you talking about?" Aria asked in shock
