Chapter 6- The Restoration Committee Search
Dani turned the key to lock the door to her fourth floor apartment. She sighed as she adjusted her purple polo shirt with the words, "It's a Movie and Music Warehouse" in red letters on the right side and on her left side was a white name tag with her name in big bold black letters. She had a matching purple bandanna covering her hair. The halfa clone stuck her keys in her pocket of her khaki pants and walked down the hallway. Danny was able to help her get a job at It's a Movie and Music Warehouse a couple days before he had quit. She was beginning to see and smell why he had quit, other than his duties as Danny Phantom and school. She didn't have to worry so much about being Dani Phantom because of the melting so school and a job wasn't a too big of a problem.
"Another day, another peppy lecture about making sure you follow a few people till they break down and to be super peppy."She muttered as she walked down the stairs and headed out the door. "Oh well, two more months and I'll be out of this job."

Amity Park Park
---------------------------------------
"So the plan is that if anyone asks why you look like that, just say you're in costume."Yuffie said as Donald crossed his arms. The Radiant Garden Restoration/Locate Sora Party had finally arrived to the world a couple of days earlier due to help of fuel that was in Vincent's escape pod. Vincent leaned up against the tree as the group figured out a way to look for their keyblade wielding friend. Even though most of the party looked normal, there was the problem of Donald and Goofy. Cloud had suggested of them staying in the Gummie Ship, but it was out of the question when it came to looking for Sora. Vincent looked up at the sky though the branches of the trees.
"Vincent..."Cloud called as he walked over to the guns man."You think you can since him?"
"I can't say if I can or not. This place has a weird power flowing through it, almost similar to the Life Stream that used to flow."
"Uh, da Life Cream?"Asked Goofy as scratched his head in confusion.
"Sounds yummy..."said Donald, even though he knew what Goofy said was wrong.
"It's called, The Life Stream. It was a spiritual power that gave life to a lot of things. It used to flow on Radiant Garden before the Heartless attacked and ever since then, it has disappeared."Aerith explained looking at the King's subjects.
"In any case, we still need to split up in order to find where Sora's hiding."Leon sighed as he crossed his arms, "I wished the King had told us what he now looks like in this world. It would be easy to find him."
"Yes it would."Aerith agreed as Yuffie had her back turned.
"What are you doing, Yuffie?"Asked Donald. She turned and showed him a black, slim, phone with a mixture ninja star hanging off of it. "I'm going to see if I can make a call in this world." the ninja said as she pressed a button. A few moments later, muffled music was heard as Cloud put his hand in his pocket and pulled out a similar phone, minus the charm. The music played a few more times before it stopped.
"So they can work in other worlds."Yuffie said with happiness in her voice as she pocketed the phone," So then, how do we split up the groups?"
"I can go with Donald and Goofy."Aerith smiled as she walked over to the two.
"Okay then. Yuffie, you and Tifa go check the north side of this city. Cloud and I will search the south side while you three search the east side."Leon exclaimed, unfolding his arms. The rescue party nodded as Cloud turned around and said, "Vincent, do you want to...."
But the mysterious guns man was gone.
------------------------------------------
It's A Movie and Music Warehouse-a few hours later
------------------------------------------
"I'm sorry sir, but store policy clearly states you have to have an adult with you in order to get this game."Dani said in a bored tone of voice to a ten year old boy who was whining and wanting to buy DOOMED: THE RETURNED from the glass case that was below her arms. The little boy huffed as he walked away from the girl. Dani sighed with relief after that had happened.
"Hey Dani." A voice popped up. Dani looked up to see Tucker smiling, "Rough day?"
"Ohhh yes. That's the seventh kid today whose been wanting to buy a video game from this case and they're too young. So where's Danny, Sam and Valerie?"
"That's why I came over. Movie Weekend got canceled."The techno geek leaned on the counter.
"You serious?!? Why! I was waiting all week for it and I finally was able to get work off for that!"
"Same here. Unfortunately, Valerie has to work and Danny got roped into working on some haunted house for Vlad by his parents."
"Huh!?! How they get him to do that?"
"Saying he couldn't go to Niagara Falls on our Senior Trip here in the spring."
"Ouch."
"Yeah."
"Hey Dani, can I speak with you for a moment?"Another voice popped up as the manger of the store came over to the young halfa.
"I'll be in the mp3 isle."Tucker said as he walked off, not wanting to get involve in official store business.
"I know you were enforcing the policy, but we got the parents of that kid you sent away up at Customer Service. They were apparently in a hurry and they just sent the kid in."
"I know that sir, but the last time someone said the same thing, I got in trouble because that little girl lied when she bought Bloody Wings and her parents found out."
"That is true, but the kid's parents are the owners of this place. Unfortunately, that's not the only thing. I was going over your records and there are points stacked up against you for absents and your tardiness. I don't really want to do this Dani since Danny worked really hard to help you get this job and I'm trying everything to keep you in here, but."
"You're firing me?"Dani's eyes widen.
Chris's eyes fell to the ground, "I'm really sorry, Danielle. I need your badges and the keys to this case."
Dani threw the uniform shirt off, revealing a blue shirt with a purple heart in the center. She folded it up and then took out the keys to the case from her pocket and pulled her badge id from her wallet.
"Anything else?"
"That's it. Normally I would ask you to leave the store, but I'll let you stay a little longer since your friend is here. I'm really sorry, Dani."
"Its okay..."she said as she swiftly walked out from behind the counter and went and headed for the MP3 isle. Tucker was looking at the latest models when he saw the red face of his best friend's clone.
"Dani?"Tucker asked in a worried voice.
"They fired me."
"They what?!? Why?"
"I'll tell you on my way out."She said. Tucker nodded as he walked alongside the half ghost girl to the front door. A couple of the coworkers stopped and stare with surprised looks on their faces. Dani sighed as she looked over and saw the parents talking to the head of customer service. The little boy saw her and suck his tongue at her with a 'ha-ha, I got you fired' smile. Dani growled as she let her eyes turn glowing green.
"Dani..."Tucker said as he noticed what was going on and got her out of there faster as the little boy had a scared look in his face.
"This freak'n sucks."Dani said as the two walked to Tucker's car.
"So why they fire you?"
"Cause that lame kid's parents came and complained which caused them to look at my records and find that I had too many leaves and being late. Plus also they're stupid 'owners' and they want to be butt kissers to them!"
"Weren't you planning on quitting anyway?"
"Yeah, but I wanted to save a little bit more money before the holidays and try not to depend on you guys too much."
"Don't sweat it. Besides, you can always get a better job...one that doesn't smell like armpits."Tucker said. Dani smiled. "True, that smell was getting to me."
The two laughed as they reached the car. "Do you need a lift back home?"
"Nah. I'm going to walk around abit. I gotta run a few errands anyways."
"Okay then. You be careful. Call me or Sam if you need anything."Tucker said as the two hugged. Tucker then got into this car and drove away. The halfa clone sighed as she walked across the parking lot towards a bookstore.
A few minutes after she entered, the parents and the child came out of It's a Movie and Music Warehouse. "Thank you mommy! Thank you daddy! Thanks for the game and thanks for getting that girl fired!"
"You're welcome sweetie. Anything for our little boy."The mom smiled as they reached their car and got in. The little boy noticed a black ant creature with yellow eyes lying on the floor in the car as the parents. The little boy smiled and said, "Yay! You guys got me a pet!"
--------------------------------------------
Tons of Books Store
--------------------------------------------
"You guys have my order? Danielle Fenton?"Dani asked at the counter. The girl stared at her as she popped her gum. "Uh, hello? My order."
"I don't work at this computer."
"Then can you get the person who does."
"He's on break. He'll be back later." the girl stated rudely as she popped her gum again. Dani growled as she walked out the door and bumping into Goofy. Dani landed on the ground.
"Ow. Hey."
"Oh goush I sorry, miss. Here" Goofy said as he held a hand out for Dani. Dani looked up and flashes of the dive to the heart flash through her mind. Her blue eyes widen. Could that be?
"Hey!"Another voice shouted. She looked over to the duck creature standing next to her. "We don't have time! Come on."
"Oh."Dani said as she put her hand in Goofy's and helped her up.
"Are ya hurt?"He asked. Dani shook her head as she stared again.
"Come on! We gotta go!"Donald said with some annoyance in his voice as he pushed the dog creature away. Could they be......?
"Donald and Goofy?"Dani asked aloud. The king's servants stopped and turned.
"Yuck, that's us!"Goofy said as he smiled a goofy smile and pointed to himself.
"Goofy!"Donald stomped on his taller friend's foot, causing him to yelp and jump in pain.
"Then it is true...."Dani took a deep breath and exhaled it, "You guys looking for Sora?"
Their eyes widen at the question.
"You know Sora?"A quiet, gentle, voice questioned Dani from behind. The clone turned around and saw the young woman in the pink and white dress with long brown hair in a braid and a pink bow.
"Y-yeah. Sora, controls the Key-"Dani was cut off by Donald throwing his wing over her mouth.
"May I ask how you know Sora?"Aerith asked as she removed Donald's wing.
"It's kind of a complicated story. Can I ask who you are?"
"My name is Aerith."
"My name is Danielle, but everyone calls me Dani. Sora told me all about you guys."
"You've met him?"Goofy asked.
"Met him? He he, I'm his cousin...in a way."
"COUSIN?!?"The two shouted.
"You're really a blood relative of him?"Aerith asked as she gave a weird look.
"Like I said. It's a complicated story and I can't really tell it here. If you want, I can take you to my apartment and tell you."
"Okay."Aerith said with a smile. Dani nodded and walked with the group over to her apartment.
-------------------An Hour or Two Later, at Danielle's Apartment----------------
"WHAT!"Donald and Goofy stood there with shocked expressions.
"Yeah, it's true."Dani sweat dropped, thanking everything the walls, floors, doors and windows were thick.
"But you said you where his cousin!?!"Donald pointed.
"Yeah, that's what I have to tell everyone! I don't go around telling people, 'Oh, hello, my name is Danielle Fenton, I'm Daniel Fenton/Sora's Clone. Nice to meet you!'! That's grounds for me getting hauled away and getting dissected!"
"Ewww..."Donald said with a grossed out look. Dani nodded in agreement to the comment.
"But how can that be possible?"Aerith asked with a curious look.
"I don't know. Ask the fruit loop who created me. I'm just the liv-er...kinda living proof."
"So you know where Sora is right now?"Asked Goofy.
Dani gave a slight sad look, "Yeah, in Wisconsin."
"Wisconsin? Where's that?"Donald asked.
"It's a state or two away from here. Mr. and Mrs. Fenton said that he would be back by the end of the weekend. I just hope he comes back alive."Dani flopped down on one of the chairs.
"Why?"Asked Aerith.
*knockknockknock* Came from the front door and then a voice came from the other side.
"Hey Dani! It's me Tucker! I'm coming in!"
Dani jumped up, "TUCKER WAIT!"
But it was too late as the older techno geek came bursting in with a bag from the Nasty Burger and a bag from Bulls Eye and saying, "I felt really bad about you getting fired from It's a Movie and Music Warehouse so I......uh, Dani? Who are they?" Tucker pointed to the three, "And why are two of them dressed like a dog and duck? You guys know Halloween was yesterday, you can take those off now."
"Uh, they're uh...uh. Classmates of mine?"Dani came up with.
"Really?"Tucker sets the bags down. "You do realize your lies are as badly done as Danny's now, do you?"
"Dang it...."
Tucker eyes them, "They ghosts?"
"Uhhhhh....."Dani started to say.
"Yeah!"Goofy said with a smile. Dani gave a freaked out look and started to wave her arms behind Tucker. Tucker gives them a look, "You guys look pretty lame for ghosts..."
Aerith stood up, "We're sorry, but we're not ghosts."
"You're not? Then what are you guys?"
Aerith shook her head, "I'm completely human. My name is Aerith."
"Uh hi. I'm Tucker...Tucker Foley. But then," motions to the other two, "what about those two?"
Aerith smiles, "They're mascots."
"NOTHEY'RENOTLOOKINGFORDANNYWHOSEREALLYSORA!"Dani shouts really fast, but then stops, "wait, huh?"
"You see, I'm just their supervisor; these two are just my friends/co-workers in costumes. We're promoting a new theme park in Wisconsin called, Radiant Garden and we kind of got lost." Aerith softly smiles as Donald and Goofy looked at each other, looked and Tucker and nodded along.
"Yeah, and I just offered to help them and they get to promote the theme park here at the same time."Dani smiled as her eye quickly twitches.
"Really? That's kind of cool. Weird name for a theme park, but with mascots like you guys, I can see why. So, what are your characters called?"Tucker asked, believing the story.
"Donald Duck!"Donald said loudly.
"And I'm Goofy!"Goofy said proudly.
Tucker puts his hand on his chin and looked at them, "Donald Duck and Goofy. Weird names too. Hey. Think you guys can score me some free tickets when this park opens?"
Dani rolls her eyes and starts pushing Tucker, "Yeah yeah yeah, they'll give you your tickets in the mail. Well it's been fun, thanks for visiting, BYE!" Slams the door behind her with Tucker shouting, "Hey wait! My Nasty Burger, my new game and my car keys!"
She quickly locks all the locks, turns around, leans on the door and breathes a sigh of relief. "I thought he would never leave. I'm so sorry!"
Goofy smiled, "It's alright, Dani."
Tucker starts pounding on the door, "DANI! MY CAR KEYS! CAN I AT LEAST HAVE THOSE AND MY BURGER AND MY GAME! CAN I COME IN AND GET THEM AT LEAST? HEY!"
Dani growled a little as she storms over to the coffee table where Tucker placed the bags and his keys. She dumped the it's the Bulls eye bag and picked out what he had got her, which was the new Sing Hero Game, got her burger and fries out of the bag and put his game in along with his keys into the Nasty Burger bag. The halfa girl then stormed back over to the door, turned her hand intangible and shoved it through the door. "HERE!"
"Thanks! See ya!"Tucker's voice said as you can hear him walking away. Dani pulled her hand back in and turned around to see shocked expressions from the group. "Uh...oops. That means.....Three....Two...One..."
Thundering footsteps came rushing to her door along with pounding and then, "DANI! DID YOU DO WHAT I THINK YOU DID WHAT I KNOW WHAT I THINK YOU DID?!!"
Giving a nervous smile, she quickly locks two special bolts she knows her friends do not have keys to, "Uh, shall we finish this in a different room?"
--------------------------------Nasty Burger---------------------------
Cloud and Leon stood in line for the register, looking at the menu. Cloud was trying not to give a gross out look at the menu lineup. "Leon...."
"Yes?"eyeing the ex-soldier next to him.
"Do I want to know why it's called the Nasty Burger?"
"I don't think I want to know why it's called that either."
"Next!"Said a voice.
"This world is weird. Why would King Mickey and Yen Sid choose this world for Sora to rest on?"Asked Cloud.
"How should I know? I mean, they had a house with a space ship on top and we ran into some blue man shouting about being the 'Box Ghost'...."
"Next!"The voice was sounding annoyed.
"I wonder how the others are doing."Leon wondered.
"I just wonder when Yuffie would stop calling me every five minutes...."
"Next!"The voice was sounding even more annoyed.
"What was it this time?
"Something about two boys wearing red and white coats asking her and Tifa if they liked, quarterbacks?"
"Quarterbacks?"Leon giving him a confused look.
"Hello? Next?"The voice kept on saying.
"Yeah. Apparently this lead to Tifa almost beating them up."Cloud said while looking scanning the menu again.
"HEY! YOU TWO IN LEATHER WITH THE BIG ASS FAKE SWORDS!!" the voice shouted. Leon and Cloud jumped a little. They looked over to see a young African American girl about eighteen wearing the uniform with the name tag reading, "Valerie" with her hair up, glaring at them with her teal eyes, "You guys going to order or just stand there and talk all day?"
Cloud and Leon approached the counter. Valerie stared, "Welcome to Nasty Burger, home of the Nasty Burger and our new Triple Size Nasty Nasty, how may I take your order?"
The two swordsmen eyed each other for a moment, and then Leon spoke up, "Um, we're not here to order." He then pulled a picture out from his back pocket. It had a picture of Sora at fourteen with the Radiant Garden Group in front of Merlin's House. "We were wondering if you have seen this boy." He pointed to Sora.
Valerie took the picture and held it up to her face, "No I'm sorry, sir. I haven't seen him at all. He your little brother?"
"Well..."Leon started to say.
"Yes."Cloud interrupted, "He's our little brother. We got separated and we're trying to look for him."
"Oh I'm sorry. I feel bad about yelling at you guys..."
"It's alright."Leon said.
"What's his name? Maybe one of the guys in the back may have seen him or something."
"Sora Katsuragi."Leon stated.
"Hang on."Valerie said as she ran to the back. The two swordsmen could hear her asking them.
Leon mumbled, "So much for the idea of the spell wearing off."
Cloud sighed, "Yeah, now we're back to square one. We should've figured that Yen Sid's spells don't wear off that fast."
Valerie came back and held out the picture, "No one here hasn't seen or heard of anyone named, Sora Katsuragi. Sorry. Have you guys tried the police or missing persons?"
Leon took the picture back and gave a soft, rare smile, "No, but we'll try. Thank you, eh. Valerie?"
Valerie nodded as Cloud went through his pockets and placed something on the counter. "For helping..."
As the two left, Valerie looked down to see two medium size yellowish diamonds sitting there. She quickly picked them up and looked at them. "Diamonds?"
She quickly pocketed them before her boss saw them and waited for someone else to approach the counter.
--------------------Outside the Nasty Burger-----------------
"Cloud, how much Munny do you have with you anyway?"Leon asked, after seeing him giving away a couple to Valerie.
"A few hundred."Cloud said as his eyes looked around at the cars that were parked. "Too bad this world doesn't use Munny and we haven't seen a Moogle for miles to see if maybe they could exchange it for whatever that paper stuff they were using."
"Where should we try nex-" Before Leon could finish, a scream erupted in the air as a group started to run from the parking lot. They ran past the swordsman, except for one that Cloud stopped, "What's going on?"
"Ant ghost things! Attacking! And….wow you're cute you got a girlfriend?"the young girl with long black hair, green eyes and a Spanish accent. Before Cloud or Leon could say anything, she screamed again as she noticed ten black ant like creatures coming towards them from the group of cars.
"Shadows." Leon murmured
"Go inside." The blonde swordsman pushed her away as they ran towards them.
"Damnit! Why are the Heartless here? I though Yen Sid said they're too far away for them to sense Sora." the brunette shouted as he whipped out his Gun blade and sliced a few. Cloud took out his buster sword and took out five, "I don't know, for our sakes, let's hope Sora is cured in time."
Suddenly they were surrounded by ten more Shadow Heartless.
-------Danielle's Apartment--------
The conversation was moved to Dani's bedroom. Goofy and Donald were happily munching on french-fries that were in the Nasty Burger bag. Aerith and Dani were exchanging stories on Sora from Sora's fight with a 1000 heartless in the canyon to Sora(being Danny) being put in the record books for most times a pair of pants have been dropped randomly in one day. As they were laughing, Aerith's cellphone started to ring a blissful chime.
"Excuse me." Aerith pulled out the pink, slim cell phone and saw the words "TIFA" on the screen, "Hello."
"Aerith! THE HEARTLESS ARE HERE!"
"What?"
"They came out of nowhere. Yuffie and I are taking care of them near the school. Cloud and Leon are fighting some in the area they're at. We need you, Donald and Goofy to help out!"
"We will be there in a few minutes." she quickly closed the phone.
Because Tifa was talking loudly, Dani was able to hear the entire thing. "The Heartless are attacking?"
"Yes. We have to go see if we can stop them."The flower girl got up. Goofy gave a down face, "If Sora was here, he could use the keyblade and wipe them out."
"Because the keyblade is the ultimate weapon against them?" the clone asked. Aerith nodded.
Dani looked down, "I know…Sora told me not to tell anyone this, but….I…."
-------The Nasty Burger-------
"GHOSTS!" Jack bellowed as he and Maddie started to shoot the Heartless with the anti-ghost weapons, which only caused them to be pushed back.
"Jack, we have to fall back. The weapons are not working." Maddie said as she fired a few more shots.
"I hate to have to say this, but where's the ghost kid when you need him!"
Without warning, a curved blue aura blast took out the small wave of Heartless. The Fenton's looked over and saw Cloud spinning his sword above his head as the aura started to appear again. Leon stood in front of them.
"Thanks, but you guys need to take cover."
"Do you know what those things are?" Maddie asked as he looked back at them, "Yes, but right now, this is no time for talks."
Another blast took out another on coming group. Jack and Maddie looked at each other and then into the Nasty Burger and joined the onlookers that were crowding around every window and door to see the fight.
"Damnit, where's Sora when you need him!"
--------Casper High School--------
"MOMMY!" Dash cried as he and the other football players who were practicing at the time ran into the school. Tifa punched out a few heartless while Yuffie brought out her large ninja star, spun it and launched it at some of the Heartless, cutting them in half.
"Man those girls kick ass!" a football player commented as some were starting to cheer.
"Yeah, but it looks like they can't them out all at once." Mr. Lancer, who was overseeing the football practice for their couch, noted as they watched them take out another group of Heartless.
"Man! Where's Danny Phantom when you need him!" Dash grabbed his hair.
"Tifa! How long can we keep this up?" Yuffie shouted as she took out another group. Tifa punched one that took out two Shadows.
"I don't know, but take out as many as you can! We can't let them swarm this place!"
"Damn where's Sora when you need him!"
-------Vlad's Mansion---------
"Damnit…"Danny cursed. He was lying face down on the ground as he saw Pete dragging an unconscious Vlad away. In front of Danny was the shattered remains of Oath keeper that was slowly shimmering away as a group of Neoshadow Heartless danced around him.
"Did you really think you could take me out, key wielder? You don't even know how to cast a single spell." A dark, female voice beckoned him to look out. A tall woman with green skin, her dark hair up in style of horns and black robes stood over him, grasping her staff with a glowing green gem.
All Danny could do….was growl in defeat.
