A/N: this will be more than one chapter, just posted since it's been a while since my last post (I think). I am working on the next part. And some characters, such as Clockwork, may be OOC (OOC= out of character, just in case someone like how I was doesn't know).
Chapter 6-) Time Twisted
A brown and green blur moved across the home of Clockwork, Clockwork still trying to freeze him in order to put him back into his Thermos.
"You're getting forgetful, old man!" The blur yelled.
Clockwork gritted his teeth as he once again tried to freeze time again, only to see once again that everything but the blur freeze. "What are you planning?" He muttered, now trying to use the Thermos to get him.
The blur stopped in an area that was all shadows so you could only see his glowing red eyes. "What do you expect?" He quickly moved next to Clockwork. "Mess up time."
The Time Ghost quickly sucked the blur into the Thermos. "There you go."
Another blur moved around the castle. "You really think you can get me that easily, old man? Ha!" The blur moved to the screens that showed the different times and possibly time lines. "You'll never be able to stop me!" He jumped into a screen that showed the apartment that Sean, Kachina and Zilla lived in.
"No!" Clockwork yelled as he tried to grab the blur.
INSERT THE DANNY PHANTOM THEME
Two pairs of red glowing eyes loomed over the two female Halfas. Gloved hands placed a clock hair pin in each of their hair and for a second a silver glow surrounded the two girls. A row of six zeros appeared above each of their heads, a space between every two zeros. One of the hidden figures changed the numbers that was above Kachina to ten years before to that day. The other made the date 24 years into the future to that day above Zilla's.
They disappeared and reappeared, one in Danny's room, the other in Sam's. The one in Sam's room placed the hair pin in her hair tie that was forgotten in her hair. In Danny's room, a watch with a face in the shape of a gear was placed on him. The glow over Danny was gold while Sam kept the same silver glow as the first two. Above Danny, the person inputted the date 24 years into the future also. Back in Sam's, yet that same date was inputted.
One of them dissolved while the other one reappeared inside Tucker's room, doing the same thing with him as he had done with Danny.
And then, when the other person disappeared, the five of them all woke up, gasping, then forced, they fell asleep, not realizing what had happened.
-The next day-
"Gotcha!" Danny exclaimed as he snapped on shut the lid onto the Thermos. He placed the Thermos wherever he places it when he's not using it then flew into an abandoned building and into a room before be- er- failingto become his Fenton self. "What the heck is going on here?!"
"Welcome to the GiW building. I will be your neighbor for who-knows-how-much-longer." A female voice half joked on the other side of a wall.
"Who's there?" Danny asked immediately.
The female gave a small chuckle. "You don't give me a chance to say anything, do you? My name is Dusk, AKA, Guys in White 'Experiment' Zero-One. And since you can't see me, you probably don't know that when I said 'experiment,' I was meaning to make those finger quotes, which, even if you could see me, I wouldn't be able to do with this annoying straight jacket. Now that I've told you my name, you mind letting me know yours?"
Danny thought for a moment. "Phantom," He thought a bit before realizing that Dusk had said they were in the GiW building. "Did you say Guys in White?"
"Mm-hm. Yup, ghost hunters helped by the government." Dusk replied. "You know them?"
Danny combed his hand through his hair. "Yeah, I know them. They try to hunt me, along with all of these other hunters."
Dusk cocked an eyebrow. "You're a ghost? Hm. It's about time they managed to catch one, other than myself."
"Hey, I didn't say they caught me. I just phased through the wall and then I'm here." Danny admitted.
The female ghost was silent for a while.
"You're not supposed to be able to phase through the walls."
"What?" Danny wondered, confused. He had just phased into the building that was abandoned, so how was he not supposed to be able to do just that?
"What I mean is that this building is ghost proof. A ghost can enter and leave but once they enter the building, their ghost powers are gone. That means no phasing, no turning invisible, and no nothing. If this building wasn't set that way, do you think I'd still be in this hell hole?" Dusk explained.
"Well, no..." Danny wanted to see if Dusk was telling the truth. He tried to phase his hand through the wall that was between him and the older ghost, and it was true, phasing didn't work. Neither did turning invisible, pulling up a shield, all of his powers we gone. And yet he wasn't losing his form like what had happened with Dash, nearly exposing his secret.
"Forget testing your powers, Phantom. Matt just told me that I'm going to have a guest, and it'll be nice if you could help me see if that person slips any information that could get us out of here." Dusk stated.
About half a minute after she said that, the door opened and an African-American woman slipped in.
"Hello, come to finally kill me?" Dusk said as soon as she realized who the woman was.
"Very funny, ghost." The woman replied. "I'm actually here for your help."
"Ha. Me, a so-called-mental-ghost, help you, the all mighty Red Huntress? Like that's gonna happen. But still, why do you want my help?" Dusk half joked.
Valerie? Why would she ask a ghost for help after hunting them so much? Danny wondered.
Valerie rolled her eyes, annoyed. Lucky for Dusk, Valerie's suit had been long destroyed and she had settled for some remaining Fenton Weapons. "Simple." If there was a table in there, she would have placed, banged, whatever, her hand on it. But instead, she leaned against a wall. "To kill Dan and Demon."
Danny almost fainted. No...
-somewhere else, sometime else, IDK-
Zilla walked into the Nasty Burger, not noticing that the world was swirling around it. "One soda," She said at the cashier, pulling out the money from her pocket, glancing at the cashier, wondering when the Nasty Burger had hired a girl named Rachel. While she waited for her to get her the drink, she heard faint sobbing in the rest rooms. "One second," She held up a finger at Rachel then entered the rest room. She saw that there was only one girl in the stalls and decided that the crying must have came from her. "Excuse me, everything OK in there?"
"Leave me alone!" The sobbing girl cried out at Zilla. She kicked the door as a warning.
"Sorry, I just wanted to see if I could help." Zilla started to exit.
The girl sniffed. "Who are you?" She wondered.
Zilla was surprised that someone actually didn't know her name that was most likely in Casper High. I mean, after her little out break with Paulina and Dash, you'd think people would at least recognize her somehow. "I'm Zilla. And you?"
"Azina." The sound of the girl standing up came from behind the door as well as the sound of the lock being undone. The door opened and a girl with hazel eyes and black hair came out. She wore her hair in a style similar to Sam's, plus that her hair was partly curly- the bangs- and that her hair was slightly longer. She wore a blue jacket, long black skirt and top, and fish net undershirt with long sleeves that showed under her short top and fish net socks. "Sorry for that. It's just that, nothing is going right for me." She wiped a tear away.
"Want something to eat? Talk about it, maybe?" Zilla wondered. She wasn't trying to be like Jazz, with the (A/N don't remember what Jazz wants to be so if you do just replace this with that in your mind please) thing.
"Thanks, if that's not any trouble," Azina replied. They exited the rest room. "I actually just want a drink, though."
Zilla went up to the counter to get her drink and order another one while Azina found a spot for them to sit. Zilla came back with the drinks and sat across from Azina.
Azina looked at Zilla. "I don't think I've seen you before at school. You do go to Phantom High, right?"
The other girl was confused. Phantom High? Did she mean Casper High? She decided to pretend she just moved here, since something was definitely wrong here. "Actually, I just moved here. But I know where everything is since my parents used to live here and up to when I was three, I did too." (Making up things here)
"So it's your first time being back in Amity Park for eleven years?" Azina replied.
"Yeah," Zilla confirmed. "What about you?"
Azina thought. "Lived here as long as I can remember, even before Mayor Dash Baxter renamed the High School."
Zilla opened her eyes wide. "He was a mayor?"
The other girl stared at the first. "Yeah, didn't you know? That election was in the time range that you were living here before you moved."
The Halfa girl shrugged. "Well, I don't know or remember everything."
Azina nodded, as if to say "oh". But, under her breath, she said, "Cut the act."
The Halfa nearly gasped. Instead, she pretended not to understand what Azina had said. "What do you mean?"
"It may not look like it, but I lie a lot so I know when someone is lying themselves." Azina stated. "So cut the act."
Zilla sighed. "I can't tell you much about me though. I can tell you that I don't have parents, my name is actually Dawn but I prefer Zilla, and I have lived here all my life but I can't explain why you haven't seen me around here." Zilla explained. "So..." She leaned forward. "Can I stay with you for a while?"
-again, somewhere else, sometime else, IDK (for now on, when I'm switching places in the Time Twisted chapter(s) I'll only put IDK)-
Kachina's hair was beginning to show her natural blond again. She was going to dye it again but she decided to go for a flight first. She now landed in an alley near by Sam's house and became human again, a fire forming in a circle around her and when the fire ceased, more of her blond hair was showing. Her black dye was only covering the lower half of her hair. She couldn't have been flying that long, could she? She slowly got up and dusted herself. Just as Kachina finished tying her shoes, her dye was pretty much gone. She shrugged and walked in the direction of Sam's house.
"Come back here!" A woman's voice shouted at her as she passed by.
"Me?" Kachina wondered, surprised to hear her voice since she was... well, she didn't know but she knew it was a long time.
"Yes, you!" The woman yelled.
Kachina, confused, headed towards her.
"Were you trying to rip us off? You get inside and teach my daughter!" The woman pushed her inside and led her up to the room.
Kachina had no idea what was going on, but she knew that this couldn't be the right date. Sam's parents didn't really care for their daughter so it couldn't be, right?
"Here." The woman shoved several books into the blonde's hands. "She better learn something." She then headed downstairs.
The blond opened the door, not sure how she got into this mess. The room was all pink and girly, Kachina was almost sure she was going to throw up. Not since she was- what, five?- did she like so much pink. This problem may be a bit hard to solve, she thought. But then she saw the girl she was teaching.
The girl wasn't facing her currently. But she had the most black/gray on her than Kachina thought was possible, since the room was so pink. She had long black hair, a dark gray dress, black knee-high socks, gray hair clip, a dark gray fingerless glove on one hand, a black glove on the other, and black bracelets on each hand. "Momma hurt you?" The girl wondered, looking at Kachina over her shoulder, revealing a bruise that was on her cheek and two worried violet eyes.
The older girl shook her head. "No, she didn't hurt me."
The girl turned so her entire body to face Kachina. "But-" She pointed at the scar on Kachina's face. "-that not from Momma?"
The blond had long forgotten about that scar- it was a long time ago when she had gotten it and it felt like nothing was there anymore (yes, I have forgotten there was any scar on any of the scarred characters too and just realized that)."No, honey, I got this a long time ago, in a fight." She sat down next to the young girl, placing the books in front of them. "What's your name?"
The girl smiled, now knowing there was someone nice that she could trust. "Sam."
Kachina smiled back. "I'm Chris." She moved her bangs out of her eyes. "OK, show me what you know."
Sam turned and opened the first book. "The big dog..."
-IDK-
Sam (as in the one in the show, not the Sam that's little) was walking, her eyes glued to the dark magic book in her hands. Somewhere else, Tucker was playing with his PDA while heading towards Danny's house. The world swirled around them and they walked into each other, even though they weren't even walking in a direction where they could have.
"Sam?"
"Tucker?"
They rubbed their heads, sure that they were nowhere near each other.
"What are ya kids doing here?" A dry male voice asked.
"This is no place for children." A slightly gentler female voice stated.
"We're not children!" Sam gritted her teeth.
Tucker looked around nervously. "Excuse my friend, we'll be right on our way."
Two figures jumped down from the roof, the owners of the voices. The woman had long red hair that almost reached her waist. She wore a black top that showed her stomach, a vest that was torn at the bottom, jeans with holes at the knees and tears at the end, a red bandanna around her neck, and bandages around her wrists up to her elbow. The man wore a loose black shirt and jeans that were tattered, but it was easy to tell that he could hurt you badly if he wanted.
"No choice. You're gonna come with us now." The man told them.
The red head nodded. "They would have their heads."
So then the woman grabbed Sam and the man grabbed Tucker. Then, they ran.
Sam sent a look at Tucker that said, what in the world? And Tuck sent one back that said I have no idea.
"Who are you people?!" Sam demanded.
The woman used her other hand to cover Sam's mouth and the man did the same, not wanting to risk him yelling too.
"Do ya want to get us killed?!" The man hissed at Sam.
"You never know where They are. If They catch you, then you're dead." The woman told them. "That's why we're always on the run, making sure They can't find us."
Tucker tried to say, "who's they," but that was muffled.
"They are my best friend and... the girl I loved." The man seemed so depressed when he spoke of the girl and his former friend.
"And his best friend was my brother." The woman stated.
The man looked at the night sky. "We can stop here." They entered an abandoned building and the man and woman let go of the friends.
Sam and Tuck moved their jaws, seeing that they were strong and had really good grips.
When Sam got her jaw feeling back to normal, she looked at the adults. The woman had a tear running down her face and the man was letting her rest on his shoulder. "Who are you?" She had a feeling that she and Tuck knew them, but she had to be sure.
"They no longer call us by our birth names. The people here know us as the Sufferers. But when they call us individually, they call him Broken and I Twilight." The woman said. She and the man had faintly remembered the two teens- and Broken sort of saw himself in Tucker.
"We have been runnin' many a year now." Broken stated. "Least ten."
Ten years?! The teens had looks of shock on their faces.
Tucker gulped. "Are They that bad? Enough for you to hide this long?"
Twilight nodded. "Yes. Even though we are close to Them, They will kill us when we are found." Another tear fell down her face.
Sam looked at Twilight, then Broken, and back at Twilight. "I'm starting to feel like we shouldn't even bring up the topic."
Broken wiped of the tears from Twilight's face. "Don't be. Ya didn't know. Besides, we're adults. Heck, she's older than me by two years."
The teens looked at the two adults. You would have never thought that Twilight was older than Broken. But maybe that was because the way Broken acted with Twilight... It was almost like he was her brother.
Suddenly, a white haired figure fell through the roof. Sam and Tuck thought it was Danny, but that was before they realized it was a woman that looked a lot like Danny.
"Dani?" Twilight wondered. She moved out of Broken's arms and shook the girl.
"G-gh-ghosts..." Dani warned before she passed out.
"J-Twilight, get them to safety." Broken pulled out this weapon that looked like a Fenton Bazooka from out of thin air. "I'll handle them."
Sam and Tuck wanted to protest, to help, but Twilight lifted Dani onto her back and grabbed them.
"Ghost filth!" They heard Broken exclaim as they ran away from the building.
When they were too tired to run anymore, they slipped away into a really old building- a familiar one too.
"Will-he-be-OK?" Tucker wondered.
"Broken? He's been fighting ghosts since before my brother the girlfriend turned." Twilight replied, leading them into a basement. At the far wall was an open portal.
The friends were shocked. This was Fenton Works. They were in Danny's home right now but it looked so old so... damaged...
"We'll be safe in there." Twilight pointed to the Ghost Portal. "They reign in the human world, not the Ghost Zone. In here only the ghosts that want to help the humans live... and, every once in a while, Broken and I bring more humans here so they can live."
So, then they entered the confusing realm.
