Chapter 2: The Second Attempt

It was nightfall once more and Danny Phantom was on patrol with his communicator at hand and Sam and Tucker somewhere on the ground.

"No sign of Valerie or this new guy I faced last night" said Danny as he began to look around.

"Well, I'll keep a eye on that new guy you faced at the Nasty Burger" said Tucker on the other line.

"Tucker, you're suppose to be helping Danny watch his back for this mysterious character who attacked him last night" said Sam on the other line who was not far from Danny.

"Well, why can't I just simply relax?" asked Tucker.

Before Danny could respond, a laser from nowhere knocked his communicator from his hand which fell onto the ground.

"Alright ghost boy" said Valerie as she appeared right in front of him on her hovercraft with the Nightwatcher at her side, "it's time to end this."

"You are my ticket to retirement" said Raphael who pointed at Danny.

Raphael then used the new jetpack which was given to him by Vlad Masters as he flew right toward Danny giving him a good punch sending him crashing right down to the ground.

"This is too easy" said Raphael as he cracked his knuckles.

"You want to take a guess before you make that claim?" asked Valerie as she notice Danny recovered from the Nightwatcher's attack who was coming right toward him.

"That won't be a problem" said Raphael as he took out some anti-ghost chains Vlad had given him and used it on Danny which tied around Danny's waist, "just what are you going to do now Inviso Bill?"

"I don't know, just maybe this" replied Danny as he began to sped off with the chains still attached to him which eventually pulled Raphael off balance.

Raphael quickly grabbed the chains, but it immediately pulled him toward Danny, and he began to be dragged throughout the streets and hitting various lampposts.

"That's enough out of you" said Raphael as he finally firmed his grip on the situation by using his jetpack and attempted to pull Danny toward him.

"I don't think so" said Danny as he used his ghost beam to free himself from the anti-ghost chain which then sent Raphael crashing right toward Valerie.

"He's getting away!" cried Valerie.

"Yea, no kidding" said Raphael as he used his jetpack to sped off to give chase to Danny.

Raphael immediately caught up with Danny to which Raphael took out his sais and began to attempt to fight Danny. But every time Raphael attempted to make a direct hit on Danny, he would always turn invisible. Danny then notice Raphael's jetpack and fired a ghost beam right at it which the jetpack began to malfunction.

"This isn't good" said Raphael as he looked behind himself and notice the jetpack was malfunctioning.

"You got that right" said Danny as he waved goodbye to Raphael.

Raphael then spun out of control all over the city and finally landing right into some garbage dumpster near the Nasty Burger. As he finally recovered from the attack, he notice Danny landed near the Nasty Burger with Tucker and Sam who just came into the scene.

"Why that little" said Raphael as he peaked out from the dumpster, "I knew he must have had some outside help."

Before Raphael could make his move against Danny, he notice Danny changed back into his human form. He couldn't tell what was the reason why, but then some sort of heavy RV vehicle hits the dumpster he was in, sending him screaming down the street.

"Looks like I have to save the so-called great Nightwatcher" said Valerie as she heard familiar screams and notice a dumpster rolling down the street.

As Valerie went to rescue Raphael, the scene switches back to the Nasty Burger to which Jack and Maddie Fenton got out of the RV armed with their usual anti-ghost weapons.

"Where is he, where is he!" cried Jack as he was searching about.

"You mean the ghost?" asked Sam.

"No, I'm not just talking about that ghost boy" said Jack, "but that other ghost hunter. If there be anyone who is going to hunt down that ghost boy, it's going to be me, Jack Fenton."

"Did you get a good look at that other ghost hunter?" asked Maddie to Danny and his two friends.

"Well, I did get a photo on him with my PDA" said Tucker as he showed them the photo of the Nightwatcher heading down into a garbage dumpster.

"Wow, and people called me a bad ghost hunter" said Jack as he looked at the image, "I should go and put this image on the Internet. Now the ghost hunting world will no longer laugh at me."

"Jack, we should really concentrate on who is behind this suit and armor" said Maddie.

As Jack and Maddie Fenton left the scene, the scene switches back to where Valerie was helping Raphael who was still in his Nightwatcher suit getting the garbage off of him and was in Vlad's hideout in Amity Park.

"I didn't know this Inviso Bill had some outside help" said Raphael who was dusting the garbage off of himself as Vlad Masters came into the scene, "you didn't even tell me that."

"Oops, well, there's a lot of things I don't have the gall to tell you" said Vlad, "such things like that should be kept a secret if one were to apprehend the ghost boy."

Then Vlad's cell phone began to ring, "excuse me for a moment." As Vlad left the scene and went into another room, "yes, just what is it?"

"We have the package you have ordered from New York City" replied the voice of April O'Neil.

"Ah yes, Miss O'Neil, I almost forgot about it" said Vlad, "I'll come to the door immediately once I finish my business."

As Vlad went back into the other room to finish his business, the scene then switches to the front of Vlad's Amity Park house to where April gave the signal to Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello and Master Splinter to get out of the large cardboard package.

"This is pretty stuffy to be in it" said Michelangelo as he came out of the large cardboard package.

"Thank you for all your help" said Master Splinter, "hurry, we have to get into the sewers of Amity Park and find Raphael."

"Don't worry" said Donatello as he grabbed a sewer cover, "once we're in the sewer, we can probably find out where Raphael has been. Maybe he has made a temporary safe haven for himself there."

"I hope so" said Leonardo, "but I have the feeling he could be right under our noise."

As the three turtles and Master Splinter left the scene, April immediately covered up the large cardboard package and nailed it together just right before Vlad Masters came into the scene.

"Ah, Miss O'Neil, so glad you have delivered what I have always wanted" said Vlad.

"Well, glad you have received what you have wanted" said April, "guess I better get going."

"On the other hand Miss O'Neil, please stay for awhile" said Vlad, "come and take a tour of my temporary villa here in Amity Park."

"I have to be on my way" said April.

"Fine, suit yourself" said Vlad as he took in the cardboard package inside.
