Chapter 41.
Danny glared with hatred at the name. "Danny are you okay?" Ember asked. Danny didn't even look at her. "no." he answered dryly. "Desiree has tried to harm you and almost succeeded." He then looked at his partner. "and now shes going to pay for trying to hurt you." He said putting his hands on her shoulders. She smiled and looked over at the paper. She raised her finger releasing a small inferno burning the paper to ash. She then turned and gave Danny a long deep passionate kiss. After a while they broke away with Ember smiling. "just do me one favor babypop. I call the first punch." She said causing Danny to laugh.

Later that day.

Desiree walked the halls of phantom academy with vortex behind her. "so you think this idea is still a good one?" he asked cracking his knuckles. She turned to him smiling. "well of course why wouldn't it?" she asked only leaving a very confused Vortex In thought. "well you wanted mclain gone. And instead plasmius died all the way because of that." Desiree shrugged her shoulders. "part of the plan." Vortex gawked at her with wide eyes. "what do you mean part of the plan?" he asked now worried. She smiled. "ill explain later partner right now though we don't want to be late for class." She said grabbing him by the hand. "if this chick weren't short a few brain cells Id actually be flattered shes holding my hand right now." He thought to himself.
Ember and Danny made their way to class only to have ghost writer waiting for them. "well well my two best students are here at the same time." He said causing both teens to turn red with embarrassment. "really quick both of you. Clockwork wanted to speak with you later on after your battle. So remember that." Both teens nodded. "sure thing professor." They said in sync as they took their seats. Danny looked behind him where desiree was talking to spectra. His eyes glowed with anger. All he wanted was to get even. He looked down at the ring of xemit and messed around a bit. Ember looked at it curiously. Whats with that ring anyway Danny?" she asked. Danny smirked. "that my lovely friend is a secret until after the battle." He said making her blush. Kitty and Skulker both snickered at this.

Lunch.

Danny sat there playing with his food. Its not that he wasn't hungry. Well actually it was because of that. He thought it odd that a ghost would have to eat. if he were half ghost he could understand but since hes a full ghost now well you got the idea. He felt Embers hand on his. He looked up to see her filled with worry. "you okay?" she asked. Danny shook his head. "it just feels weird eating when youre dead you know?" Skulker looked up hand on his chin. "you know I have thought about that. Why bother eating or drinking I mean what will we do starve?" this made the teens burst out laughing. Danny hesitantly took a bite of his pizza. "you better get your energy Danny I heard Desriee was up all night at another wishing well the last few days." Kitty said causing Danny to choke on his food.

Arena.

Clockwork watched as students began to fill the bleachers of the field. Xemit stood next to him. "so you taught him how to use the ring son?" he asked. Xemit nodded. "yes. I taught him everything I could with that thing now its up to him now." He replied. Clockwork turned to see Pandora and Fright knight walk into the teachers box. "everything set up and ready?" Clockwork asked. Pandora nodded. "yes everything is in place. She turned to see Xemit standing next to his father. "so this is your son clockwork?" she asked. Xemit turned to face her smiling. "yes and you must be the legendary Pandora are you not?" she was speechless. He took her hand and kissed it. "a pleasure to meet a legend such as yourself." Pandora blushed at this.(bum chicka bum bum.)

Danny and Ember walked into the arena feeling the schools gaze on the two of em. "you know if I had it my way theyd all have their eyes ripped out of their sockets." Ember said making Danny force back a laugh. They got to the center of the ring where Desiree and Vortex were waiting. "hey Danny how are you feeling?" Danny was about to say something when Ember had her say first. "how is he feeling? HOW IS HE FEELING?" she exclaimed. Danny smiled as both Desriee and Vortex shrivled in fear. "YOU ALMOST KILL ME TWICE THEN YOU KILL MY DANNY. AND YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW HES FEELING?" Danny couldn't help but laugh at this. Desiree stood her ground. "look maybe if you hadn't shown up at this school none of it would've happened." She said irritably. Embers hair raised to a blaze. "what is that supposed to mean?" she asked now furious. Desiree chuckled. "well ive been aiming at you the whole time. And Danny took the fall for you so whos fault is it?"

Ember all at once looked down. Was she right? "its still yours Desiree." Ember turned to see Danny putting his hands on her shoulders. "all you did was help me out with a problem of my own." He said walking up to her fists bawled. "and what might that be?" she asked innocently. Danny smirked. "you helped me find the right girl." This made both Desiree and Ember both to gasp with shock. Danny continued. "Ember is ten times the girl you would ever be. Shes nice kind and always there for me." He looked over to see Ember on the verge of tears. "and ill always be there for her." With that Ember grabbed Danny into an afterlife crushing hug.
Desiree glared in anger. "oh so someone is better than me well see. You will be mine Danny plasmius you will be mine." And with that stormed to the other end of the arena leaving Danny and Ember smiling at one another.
