Plasmius smiled as he watched Sam and Danny talk. "To be young and stupid again." He waved his hand at Fright Knight. The spirit of Halloween nodded and brought his sword up. It flashed with green light and doubled in size and length. He brought it up as it hadn't gained any weight and swung it down.
"Look out!" Danny pulled Sam clear as the sword sliced her car in half. The two halves exploded. Danny pulled Sam down and alley and behind a dumpster. "You shouldn't have come."
Sam hit his head. "What am I?"
"The mother of my children! The woman I'm going to marry!"
"Precisely!" She cupped his face in her hands. "I had to go through months of loneliness without you. I can't go through that again." She kissed his cheek. "Don't you dare make me go another moment without you."
"Sorry! I really thought this was only going to take a few minutes."
"Even if it is only for a minute. I won't let you go without me."
Danny managed a small smile. "Right!" He suddenly picked Sam up bridal style. "So let's go!" He shot into the air as several of Huntress's floating blasters shot at them. Danny's strength was almost gone, but he dug down to keep going.
"After them!" Huntress and Fright Knight took off after the pair. Plasmius watched as the four vanished from his view. "Where does he keep getting his power? He has grown more in just a few months, than I did in years." He again looked at the large seed in his hand. "And what has this have to do with anything?"
"Everything!" A large green portal opened up and a tall ghost in purple robes walked through it.
"Malice! What a pleasant surprise." Plasmius noticed the floating green orbs around the ghost. "Another proxy ghost I see."
"The world is a dangerous place. It is a sad time when a grown ghost can't even step out of his own home."
"Apparently! What do you want?"
"That seed!" He held his hand out. "Place it in my hand and all will be forgiven."
"So this thing is very important." Plasmius tightened his fist around the seed. "Which means that I should hang on to it a little longer."
The real Malice stood in his lab. A large green orb of energy was around his head and small strands of light flowed from it and connected with his fingers. His eyes were closed and constantly twitched his fingers.
"What is he doing?" Across the lab a small girl with black hair and blue eyes watched from a cage.
"That is how he controls his proxy!" A large ghost in a black jumpsuit sat next to the cage. He ran a large hand through his white hair. "It is so he is in no danger when he interacts with the outside world."
"Yeah! The boss is to smart to risk himself." A smaller ghost in a torn up straightjacket sat on top of the cage. His face was sharp with a slightly twisted grin on it.
"Would you idiots shut up?" Malice's voice echoed around the lab.
"He doesn't treat you guys to well." The girl spoke up with a much lower voice.
"He is our master." The large ghost spoke in a low tone. "It is his place to talk down to us."
"Yeah!" The smaller ghost usually high-pitched voice was also lowered. "This is the way of things!"
"Yeah right!" The girl crossed her arms. "I know a better way of things."
Both of the ghosts outside of the cage looked to each other. The smaller ghost known as Shaver jumped off the cage and sat next to the large one. "Really?"
Danny landed on a rooftop and nearly collapsed. His body was spent. Sam herself didn't have much left either. She tried to help him up, but fell to the roof herself. She struggled to draw breath. Danny forced himself to his feet. "Sam?"
"I'm sorry Danny!" She coughed several times. "I can't breath!"
"No! I won't allow this!" Danny helped Sam to lay down on her back. "You have to fight. I'll get that seed."
Sam smiled. "At least I managed to spend time with you." She rubbed his face with her hand. "Take care of.." She passed out.
"Sam!" Danny shook her and checked her pulse. "No!" He couldn't find it. "No!" He stood up and stumbled back. "This isn't happening!" Danny wanted to yell out, he wanted to scream, but all he could do was look. Sam looked so peaceful. "Sam!" Unnoticed by him, a bright light flew over head and stopped. It shot towards Danny and hit him like a bullet. Danny felt energy rush through his body. He yelled out as a black ring formed around him. It glowed with dark light and exploded around him. Danny stood transformed. His jumpsuit had inverted colors and his hair moved like it was living. He clenched his fists and they erupted with green energy. He glanced over his shoulder as Fright Knight and Huntress landed. His eyes glowed with green light. "Bad timing!"
Malice frowned as his orbs blasted Plasmius across several blocks and into a light post. The half ghost had managed to keep a firm grip on the seed. "Your determination is admirable! But why do you put yourself through so much pain?"
"Both you and the kid want this thing!" Plasmius pulled himself up from the broken post. "That is reason enough. Maybe if you tell me why this thing is important, then maybe I won't want it so much."
"You hold the cure to Sam's ailment! So you see it holds no value to you."
"On the contrary! This is the perfect bargaining chip. I think I will keep it."
Malice laughed. "It should be entertaining to see you try." The orbs around him shot out several beams. Before they hit, a small ball of light appeared in front of Plasmius and blocked the attacks with a small shield. "What sort of trickery is this?"
Plasmius reached out to touch the light. It shot into his body and he exploded with red light. The light died down and Plasmius stood changed. His body sparked with red light and his eyes glowed with dark light. "I have grown tired of being the low villain on the totem poll." His left fist sparked with energy. "Time to reclaim my throne."
Burser and Shaver cringed as Malice cursed and yelled as he fought Plasmius with his proxy. "He is angry!"
Danni looked past them as the tall ghost's fingers moved much quicker. "You might not want to be here when and if he losses."
Both halfas nodded and started to fly out of the room. Burser stopped and opened Danni's cage. Shaver landed on his shoulders. "What are you doing?"
"She doesn't deserve to face Lord Malice's wrath. I like what she talked about. Maybe normal humans not that bad."
Shaver thought for a moment and nodded. "Lets go! Maybe we can go back to our true homes."
Bruser picked Danni up and the pair shot out of the lab as Malice began to yell louder.
