Well now the moment you all have been waiting for the pairing of battle partners. Hope you all didn't have to wait too long for this update. I do not own Danny phantom or its characters.

Chapter 7

Skulker and kitty winced as they watched Danny warm up. "how can he stand doing that? Doesn't it hurt?" kitty whispered to her boyfriend. Skulker shrugged. "I guess not hes been doing 50 and counting." Danny smiled. "I can still hear you guys you know." They both jumped. Danny got up smiling. "so how many?" he said rubbing his arm. Skulker grinned. "78." Danny smiled. One arm pushups got his heart racing and charged up his power. "so Danny any suggestions?" skulker asked calculating the other combatants. "quite a few actually." Danny said looking and pointing at their enemies. "the girl in overalls is boxlunch." Daughter of the box ghost and lunchlady." He heard noises and turned to see kitty vomiting in a trash can.

Skulker at once ran to pat her on the back. When she was done she turned to Danny face full of discust. "that is soo wrong!" she bellowed. Danny laughed. "What is?" He asked. kitty scowled. "they had a kid?" she asked holding back the urge to throw up again. Danny and skulker both busted a gut laughing at the predicament. "anyway should anyone fight her just build up her anger. And then dodge till shes out of energy. Or act all weak until she starts quoting things like her dad." At that moment kitty ran to the same garbage can. Danny then explained vortexes power. "weather and emotions. Get him really mad so that he cant focus." Skulker nodded in agreement. "and he wonders why counseling didn't do him any good." He said laughing.

Danny was about to say something when fright knight and Pandora both flew down from the observatory. "students line up for evaluation." They all lined up in a single file line. Danny and his friends shook as Pandora walked to examine the students. When she reached Danny he was shaking in his shoes. She was one of the legendary figures of the ghost zone and she was staring at him as If she could just read him with her eyes. She smiled and winked. "don t worry young plasmius I know youll do well." She said putting her hands together. Danny could but only smile. The legendary Pandora knew who he was. At that moment his excitement was turned to fear again.

The fright knight looked at him with those burning red eyes. Danny couldn't tell what he was thinking behind the armor but it probably wasn't good. Finally the fright knight reached into his pocket and pulled out a small package he then handed it to Danny. "im not sure what the others see in you but it must be big for clockwork to want you to have this." He then turned and walked away. Danny opened it only to see a strange ring with a white skull on it. Kitty and skulkers faces as well as dannys were full of curiosity. Danny could only ask himself what it is.

Clockwork watched as Danny put the ring on. "are you sure that was a good idea clockwork?" technus asked the headmaster with worry. "after all that ring belonged to.." clockwork turned to face him. "I know who it belonged to technus otherwise I wouldn't give it to him." He said dryly. He turned back to watch as dannys aura changed. "so it will listen to you then Danny." Clockwork said in his mind. "as long as your ghost half lives so will the rings power." At that moment the alarm sounded for the assigning of evaluation partners. Clockwork smiled as he took a seat. At that moment walker had come back with the snacks.

Danny shook with excitement all over. This day he waited for so long to come around. No more hiding who he was no more holding back. This time he could show off all that he was made of. He looked at the giant board which showed the names of all the students in the arena. He smiled when he saw his name next to kittys and skulkers. At once he remembered why he was there. "Where's that girl at?" He asked himself looking around. He at once spotted her. She was wearing tight leather pants and skull boots. She wore a chocker along with her grey hoodie still unzipped and hood up. He smiled. "well see who is the toughest person here soon enough." He thought to himself.

He walked up behind her and tapped her on the shoulder. She turned around and had a look of shock on her face. "hello again." Danny said with a smirk. She didn't answer but turned her look into a scowl. "look I just want to say good luck. That's all no insults or wise cracks anything." As he said this he stuck out his hand for a hand shake. She looked at it as if it was poisonous. But in the end accepted it. "im Danny Danny plasmius." He said smiling. She let go of his hand and picked up her guitar case. She then turned back to face him. "Ember Mclain." She said giving him an evil grin. "and youll be screaming that when im breaking every bone in your body dipstick." She said walking away. Danny could only smile as he turned away. "so my rivals name is Ember Mclain." He said chuckling. "well good thing I practiced training all night."

She quickly turned the corner and put her self up against the wall dropping her guitar case. She put her hand to her chest as if she were having a heart attack. "wow." She said looking towards him talking to his friends. She blushed as she saw his smile. "ohh why does it gotta be him?" she asked herself. Sure she acted all tough and snotty on the outside. "but on the inside." She didn't even need to finish. It had happened when he had ran into her twice in a row it had happened when he had apologized two times in a row. She smiled closing her eyes. Ember Mclain had a crush.

Well a whole lot of questions.
