chapter 25
deep in the ghost zone at his lair clockwork stared at his large screens watching the turn of events. "so Desiree has a team now." He said observing the three(four if you count shadow.) planning something. He quickly turned towards two other screens. One having Danny training in his chamber. And the other having Ember trying on dresses with kitty. Clockwork smiled and chuckled. "so miss Mclain has made a new friend." He said observing closely. All at once the screen behind him turned to static. He turned to see the silhouetted ghost. "hello son how are things in the space realm?" he asked already knowing the answer. "you and I both know father you would know even if I told you." The ghost remarked. Clockwork smiled. "so I suppose you want an update on young Plasmius?" he asked grabbing the young space ghosts attention.
Thursday morning.
Danny dragged all the way to school he was still sore from training day and night nonstop after school. "dude you look beat." Skulker said seeing his friend in pain. Danny shrugged. "ive been getting control of my ice powers and so far ive narrowed it down." He said putting a small layer of ice on his neck. "you better not be too sore there babypop whos going to be my dance partner?" dannys face lit up as he looked to see Ember and Kitty standing there behind him. He laughed. "Trust me Ember ill be ready for tomorrow." He said making Ember smile.
Both girls took a seat next to their partners. Danny looked over at Kitty and Skulker. "so what are you guys up to this weekend?" he asked. Skulker smiled. "im just going to take Kitty into the human world to look around." He said causing Kitty to smile. She loved the human world mostly because it always had more things to do. Dannys heart sunk. He hoped his friends would be there for backup in case he screwed up like on every first date he had with a girl. "well hope you two love birds have fun." Ember smiled. They both nodded in agreement as the bell rang for class to begin.
The ghost writer walked into his classroom smiling. "goodmorning class." He chanted. "good morning professor writer." The class chanted back. Danny read the letters on the board as the ghost writer pulled back the front part of the board. It read special message. He looked at It in confusion. The teacher smiled. "now really quick who can tell me about pariahs keep?" he said putting his hands behind his back. Ember and Desiree both raised their hands. "oh a little close call there on that one." He said. he then shrugged. "Well then let's give Miss McLain a shot here." He said waving his hand in her direction. Ember smirked at Desiree who snapped her pen in half.
"pariahs keep is where the guardians of the ghost zone locked him up." She said smiling. Ghost writer nodded. "very good. Now the deal here is that clockwork has decided we go on a field trip next week to get some of our hard working students…." He looked over at Danny who was grinning ear to ear. "…a little break from working too hard." He said smiling. "now first off I want you all to remember field trips here at phantom academy are a privlige. We haven't had one in over fifty years." He said getting everyone's attention. A hand went up like a flash of lightning. "whys that sir?" the ghost asked. "the ghost writer looked down saddening. "well the last time we went on a field trip was to the human world. We went to go see a haunted castle for fun."
The whole class listened in. "the only problem is we had ghost hunters waiting for us." He stopped and took in a deep breath. "they got ahold of one of our students. No one ever found him or saw him ever again." He then looked at the class. "now it wasn't those obnoxious guys in white or anything. But the fentons." The class gasped dannys heart filled with rage. "my birth parents." He said through gritted teeth. He had never liked the fact they hunted ghosts or had dispised them all. The ghost writer continued on. "but we all got away and since then clockwork has forbidden the school staff to go anywhere near the human world." He quickly wiped tears from his eyes. "but its all in the past and done with." He said smiling slightly.
"now then those assignments on your partners I want on my desk today ill let this be a study hall hour get it done and on my desk understood?" after a loud agreement from the class he took a seat in his desk. Ember looked over at Danny who had a look as if he was going to kill someone. "Danny are you okay?" Danny looked up immediately to see her worried expression. He looked back down and frowned. "Ember what do you know about the Fenton's?" he asked. Embers heart sunk and she looked down. "they killed my parents." Danny looked at her shocked. Ember looked at him. "why is something wrong?" she asked putting her hand on his. Danny fought back a blush and smiled slightly. "just curious is all." He said making Ember smile.
Desiree glared at the two teens talking. Johnny who was sitting next to Vortex turned towards him. "whats eating the chick?" he asked. Vortex shrugged. "shes obsessed with plasmius. And whenever she sees him with another girl she goes ballistic." He said laying his head down. Johnny looked over at Desirees face seeing nothing but pure hatred. "man." He said to his shadow behind him. "I actually feel bad for plasmius." Shadow looked at him questioningly. "id hate to have this psychotic bitch obsessed with me." He finished causing vortex and Shadow to laugh. "whats so funny?" Desiree said through gritted teeth. All the boys stopped and raised their hands. "nothing at all." They said all at once. She glared. "good."
