Code: Going Ghost


Amity Bridge

A vampire like ghost with a boy dressed in black body suit with red outlines and a red eye logo on his chest walked onto the bridge. Suddenly several Guys in White appeared and surrounded them.

"A breach in security with one ghost and the boy who kicked out butts." said the first one,

"That's affirmative. Prepare to launch white claw darts." said the second one.

"White Claw?" asked the first one,

"I don't name this stuff." said the second one.

Suddenly they were cut off when the boy appeared right in front of them and launched one kick into the stomach into the first one and elbowed the second one.

"Down boys." the boy said.

Vlad chuckled as the two men easily fell down.

"Can't be too careful with all those weirdoes around." muttered Xana before turning to Vlad "Is everything set?"

"All is according to plan now all we need is one last thing." said Vlad.

Xana nodded and looked up to see a dark red clouded sky. A dark figure watched them from the distance. Suddenly her vision was obscured and she looked to Xana's cold looking eyes staring in her very soul. Vlad appeared right behind him.

"Well look who it is, I never thought I would have the change for my revenge." said Vlad.

He blasted the cell phone out of her and also dropped something that looked like a voice box.

"So that is how she contacted Daniel. You were right to tap into the Fenton's phone lines, Xana." said Vlad.

Suddenly Skulker appeared right beside them.

"So this is the one. She would make a nice addition to my wall." said Skulker,

"Eww, that's disgusting." said the girl.

"Why does everyone say that? Do you mind of I can have her pelt after this is over, Xana?" asked Skulker.

Xana only remained silent and stared at the girl. Skulker smiled at this. Xana did not say yes but he did not say no either. The girl got up and fired an ecto blast but Vlad blocked and knocked her out with his own ecto blast.

"She'll make the perfect bait." said Vlad,

"All of the equipment is ready and now get ready for the show tonight." said Xana.


Meanwhile

The entire bridge was closed by gates on both sides due to ghost activity. Danny, the Lyoko Gang, along with Sam and Tucker reached the gate and Danny phased through the gate with everyone touching him.

"Jazz said she'd call us if she found anything on Rita, but we better be careful here. Vlad could have set up a trap here." said Sam,

"That is what I am afraid of." said Danny.

"You can deal with Vlad while we deal with Xana after we rescue Gordon and Rita." said Ulrich,

"Got it but before we move I'll go check it out." said Danny.

With a cry of 'I'm going Ghost!' Danny transformed and turned invisible. He noticed several monsters and several guards with Xana's Eye in them. He walked around a corner and gasped. Xana stood on a wrecking ball while looking down at Rita who was held by Skulker.

Xana noticed Danny quickly due to his possessed victims ability to detect ecto energy thanks to Vlad's enhancements. Xana would have smiled but he kept it hidden and decided to proceed with his role.

"Sorry my dear but if that is the case then you are five million dollars short of motherhood." said Xana, chuckling.

"No!" shouted Rita.

The wrecking ball started to rise and Danny a body was sprawled on Xana's right shoulder. That must be Gordon. He better hurry and save the kid from the demonic beast! Skulker smirked and saw Danny fly out to grab the kid.

Suddenly a sound wave hit Danny in the back as he tried to grab Gordon. Xana looked at the shrinking images of the occupants on the bridge. This was too easy for him but he knew there would be reinforcements. Unfortunately Ember and Skulker would no doubt be celebrating too soon and that would guarantee their defeat.

Danny looked to Ember land on the ground behind.

"In a hurry, dipstick?" asked the rock star,

"Kind of." said Danny.

He jumped launched a kick which Ember blocked with her guitar. Ember played a note on her guitar which released a giant skull flying towards its target. Danny did not have chance to dodge and was it hard. He rammed into the ground hard.

"This is all too easy and to think you never caught him." said Ember,

"He is much more elusive prey then you think." said Skulker.

"This coming from the guy who can't even find the remote?" asked Ember,

"I'm working on it." said Skulker, pouting.

Suddenly an ecto blast hit Skulker and released Rita. The woman ran and Ember looked to see Danny back on his feet.

"Nice work, Skulker. Now we have to get that woman back. Go find her and bring her back. I'll deal with this brat." said Ember.

Skulker pouted and nodded. Ember quickly played a note on her guitar which released giant fist at the half ghost. Danny quickly blocked it and charged at her. Ember quickly side stepped him and swung her guitar.

Danny ducked and sent his leg up, kicking Ember into the air. Ember looked down to see Danny flying up to her with a fist closed. She blocked the punch and quickly played a note which a tongue of blue flame. Danny quickly dodged and fired an ecto blast at close which Ember dodged by ducking.

They landed on the bridge and glared at each other.

"How did Xana and Vlad sucker you and pelt boy into their plans?" asked Danny,

"Simple, a chance to get rid of you, dip stick." said Ember.

Danny snarled and lunged at her with a punch which she blocked and met with a roundhouse kick which Danny blocked with his left arm. Ember jumped and back and swung her guitar which Danny dodged and tried to blast her. She grabbed Danny and threw him over her shoulder and unleashed a blast of blue flame. Danny quickly flipped out of the way and fired another round of ecto blast at her.

Ember smiled and blocked them with her guitar. Danny ran at full speed towards her. Ember's eyes widened at how fast he was going it was like a white blur. Ember launched more blue flames at him but he became intangible and dodged until he was right in front of her and crashed his fist into her jaw.

Ember skidded across the bridge until she stopped and got back on her feet.

"You'll pay for that." said Ember,

"What are you going to have your agent try to sue before I throw you back into the Ghost Zone?" asked Danny.

Suddenly their fight was cut off by a laser blast.

"I got you now, Ghost Boy!" shouted a voice.

Danny's eyes widened at that voice. She appeared on red and black glider wearing red and black suit with her face shielded by a helmet but her face was seen through the glass. High above Xana's narrowed at the girl's appearance. This was not part of the plan.

She was meddling with his plan and he did not like it at all. He was going to have to make an example out of her to warn others who dare interfere with his plans. Valerie landed on the bridge and pointed her guns at both Danny and Ember.

"No escape this time, Ghost Kid!" said Valerie,

"I don't have time for you. There's a kid here who is being held hostage by other ghosts and you're wasting your time on me." said Danny.

"It is most likely your fault anyway and now I am going to end it." said Valerie.

Suddenly the wrecking ball Xana was on came in and rammed into her. She slid down the road and looked to see a kid walk up to her with a cold expression.

"Out of my way, kid! I need to stop these ghosts!" said Valerie.

Xana's response was using his electricity to short circuit her suit and knock her out. He quickly jumped back onto the wrecking ball and was left into the sky.

"Danny!" shouted a voice.

Danny looked to see Sam and the others run up to him.

"We saw Valerie fly to where you were and followed her." said Tucker,

"What happened?" asked Odd.

"Xana short circuited her suit and then he retreated to the top of the bridge." said Danny,

"We're going after him." said Ulrich.

"You're not going anywhere." said a voice.

They looked to Skulker and Aragon.

"Aragon and Skulker?" asked Sam,

"How many did Xana and Vlad sucker into this?" asked Tucker.

"This has nothing to do with Xana, what it is revenge!" said Aragon.

Using the medallion on his neck he transformed into his dragon form. Odd glared and formed a fist.

"Hey you rip off artist. You stole that from Maleficent!" said Odd.


Meanwhile at Billion fold Studios

"You dare to copy me!" shouted Maleficent.

The writers quickly scattered as Maleficent unleashed green flames to destroy the building. One brave writer named Butch Hartman stepped forward.

"Stay back, Maleficent. We are not responsible for anything that is copied. It's a free country and Family Guy copied the Simpsons and American Dad copied Family Guy." said Butch,

"Well if it is a free county than I am free to send you all to the deepest depths of Hell!" shouted Maleficent.

Her body was surrounded in green flames and rose into the air. Everyone screamed and ran out of the studio as it was destroyed by Maleficent's dragon form. She changed back into her human form and smiled.

"Copy that boys." she said.


Back to the action

Aragon released a stream of flames which Danny blocked.

"If you guys are going after Xana then move it!" said Danny.

They all nodded and Aelita grabbed as her angel wings sprouted from her back and lifted them into the air. Aragon grabbed Danny and threw him across the bridge. Danny got and fired ecto bolts but Aragon took the skies and dodged the attacks. He fell and tried to squish Danny but the ghost boy quickly dodged as the dragon landed.

Danny flew at the dragon and tried to grab his medallion but the dragon was faster and knocked Danny back. Aragon started shooting multi fire balls which Danny dodged and quickly his cryo powers and froze the dragon before removing his medallion before the dragon broke free. Aragon changed back to his normal form and was sucked into the Fenton Thermos. Suddenly he was hit in the back and was knocked out.

"Danny!" shouted Sam and Tucker

They were both knocked out by a blast from Ember's guitar. She smiled at their unmoving bodies.

"Looks like I am a better hunter. I knocked out the ghost boy!" gloated Skulker,

"Shut that hole you call a mouth and take him to Vlad. As for those kids they are in for a big surprise when they find Xana." said Ember.


Near the top of the bridge

Aelita landed on the side of the tower when they heard Xana chuckle. They jumped and landed right on the top to see Xana standing on his wrecking ball that was swiniging around the top of the bridge.

"Great, Xana has a new toy. A wrecking ball." said Ulrich,

"Not for long." said Yumi.

She threw her fans but Xana blocked them with electricity and his wrecking ball swung forward. The gang hid between the small two towers on top of the bridge as his wrecking ball flew by. Aelita's wings sprouted and she flew after him but Xana quickly started firing lighting at her. She tried to fire energy bolts back but Xana was keeping her on defense.

He swung the wrecking ball forward and it flew towards the roof again. Odd fired his laser arrows and Yumi threw her fans but Xana blocked them with an electric shield so they were forced to jump as Xana's wrecking ball divided the roof in half by crashing through it.

"Guys I got an idea. Make Xana aim for the towers." said Ulrich,

"What will that do?" asked Odd.

"Just do it." said Ulrich.

They shrugged and Odd walked out in front of the tower. He fired his laser arrows as Xana flew in with his wrecking ball. He jumped and Xana's wrecking ball hit the tower but it did not collapse. Ulrich jumped onto the wrecking power and impaled Xana in the face with his sword's handle.

Xana quickly kicked Ulrich off the wrecking ball but Odd started firing at his back with laser arrows and they did not miss. Xana quickly threw a ball of electricity which Odd in the chest and he skidded towards the edge. Yumi jumped as Xana's wrecking ball started to rise into the sky and aimed her fan towards the rope. With a good swing the fans sliced through the ropes and Xana jumped to grab the rope as the wrecking ball fell down and hit the bridge.

The wrecking ball left a big hole as it fell through the bridge and it fell into the river. The gang watched as Xana hung helplessly by one hand on the rope.

"Look out, Rita. Gordon and or no Gordon? That is the question. Catch the villain or save the boy?" asked Xana.

He smiled and used his free hand to hoist Gordon off his shoulder and left him hanging over the river.


Meanwhile

Danny started to slowly awake from his forced sleep and looked to see the outline of a man. The man had spiked hair curved in a V formation with red eyes and wore a white caped suit and fanged teeth. He recognized that man in a second.

"Plasmius!" he said with bitterness.

"So good to see you too, Daniel. Before you start asking questions I would like you to see an old friend." said Vlad.

He tried to approach Vlad but he was bound to something and noticed he was in a pod like in Vlad's old lab. He looked and gasped. Inside another pod was a twelve year old girl with black wavy hair tied in a pony tail. She wore a blue hoodie with red beanie shorts and shoes like Danny but blue and a red hat.

It was Danny's female clone, Danielle 'Dani' Fenton.

"How did she get here?" asked Danny,

"Xana found she was spying on us and tried to warn you but she failed and now she will pay for her betrayal after I am done with you." said Vlad.

"Leave her out of this! She has nothing do with this." said Danny,

"I am afraid it is too late but don't fret, Daniel. I am going to finish what I started and you and that useless clone are about to witness to creation of my perfect son." said Vlad.

"I have said it before and I will say it again you are one seriously crazed up . . ." said Danny.

He couldn't finish because Vlad became intangible and phased into him. He screamed in pain as Vlad entered him. His insides were on fire as he struggled against his bonds.

"What are you doing?" asked Danny.

His eyes turned red and Vlad's voice came out of his mouth.

"Getting what I want, dear boy. You mid-morph DNA!" shouted Vlad.

Nearby Sam and Tucker awoke to see the pods and Danny screaming in pain.

"Danny!" they shouted.

However they could help because they were tied to a beam. Danny tried to resist but the pain he was feeling was unbearable.

"I won't let you have it!" shouted Danny,

"You don't have a choice!" said Vlad.

He was right. Vlad had twenty years of experience over him. He started to transform but Danny resisted the urge but the machines power was increasing. As the power increased Danny was getting weak from the pressure. Finally Vlad forced Danny to transform and the machine copies the DNA.

Vlad phases out of Danny and smiles. The machine turns off and Vlad looks at the pods. He hears a laugh and sees Xana dangling the child over the river. Vlad smiles.

"You might not want to sleep yet, Daniel. After all Xana is about to drop something." said Vlad.

Danny looks and gasps.


Top of the bridge

"No! Please save him!" shouted Rita.

Just as she shouted Xana dropped the child. Aelita flew after the child but Xana blasted her with electricity and shot Yumi to make sure she couldn't use her powers to lift him. Odd and Ulrich jumped after the child. Xana swung and landed on the bridge and smiled.

"Suckers." he whispered.

Ulrich dove into the air just as they fell past the bridge and Odd grabbed Ulrich as he dug his claws into the steel beams that supported the bridge. Yumi and Aelita landed on the bridge and ran over to them. They looked as gasped. Gordon was a fake!

He wasn't a real child. Ulrich took out the pen knife and suddenly heard a beeping. The dummy exploded and sent the Lyoko gang flying across the bridge and hit the ground hard.

"Congratulations, kiddies. You saved a dummy but too bad you can't save yourselves." said a voice.

They looked to see Ember kick Rita who dropped her hair. It was a wig! The girl was blonde and had blue eyes.

"Xana knew that if it was a ghost then dipstick would have sensed it and if he possessed someone or used his clones then you would figured it out. So he had me use my music to control one of these school girls. This is Star." said Ember,

"So it was all a trap." said Ulrich.

"Yes now we shall have your pelts!" said Skulker.

He fired several missiles but to their surprise they were blocked by an electric shield. Xana stepped forward.

"Careful, Skulker. You'll kill them." said Xana,

"But . . ." said Skulker.

"But nothing. You're the hired help. You catch them, I kill them. Less wenching more henching you lousy hunter." said Xana.

Skulker growled.

"Nobody kills these kids but me. They are my prey." said Xana.

He pulled out his massive cleaver sword and turned to the Lyoko kids.


Vlad's outside lab

Vlad smirked at that. Xana sure hated it when anyone got in his way. He turned back to the pods and pulled the curtain off of a third pod which revealed another Danny Phantom in a containment field.

"Now all I need to do is stabilize this and I will have the perfect son." said Vlad.

However he did not see the specter emerge from the wires and fly into the computer. Vlad typed at a fast rate and the pods opened. Danny looked to see Danielle regain conscious and stand up looking all dizzy.

"What happened? Danny?" asked Dani,

"Hey, nice to see you but we got a problem." said Danny.

He pointed at Vlad and the clone. Suddenly the vultures snapped collars on them and Vlad pushed a button and they fell to the ground in extreme pain. The pain was like the Specter Deflector but much worse. Their bones were on fire and every hair on their bodies stood up.

It ended after what seemed like hours. They breathed heavily and looked to Vlad Plasmius smiling.

"These collars will prevent you from using those powers while my son destroys you." said Vlad,

"Now that doesn't seem fair." said Danielle.

"Fair! Was it fair when Daniel put the Specter Deflector on me so he could make it a fair fight when I had twenty years of experience over him! Was it fair when I was stripped of my powers left at the mercy of my pets for three hours in the same night because of him!" shouted Vlad,

"Pets?" asked Dani.

"Don't ask." said Danny,

"Now my son, destroy them!" shouted Vlad.

The clone turns to them and fired ecto bolts. Danny grabbed Danielle and dived out of the way as the blast destroys the pods. He runs over to Tucker and Sam and cut their bonds.

"What do we do?" asked Sam,

"Run!" shouted Tucker.

They started running as the clone shoots more blasts and they keep running onto the bridge as the clone pursues them. Vlad smiled.

"You can't hide forever!" he shouted.

Danny turned and looked around at the many buckers that was set up.

"Does he have a weapons vault around here?" asked Danny,

"Yeah, somewhere. But I couldn't find it because they captured me." said Danielle.

"Tucker, Sam, you go with Danielle and held her find the vault. I'll distract the fruit loop and the faker." said Danny,

"But Danny are you nuts. You don't have your powers!" said Sam.

"It doesn't matter now run!" said Danny.

Before there were anymore objections Danny ran out and faced the clone.

"Hey, faker! The one and only original is right!" shouted Danny.

He waved his hands around as the clone turned its eyes to him. As the clone fired on Danny Vlad looked around for anything suspicious since he could only see Daniel and not any of his friends. He jumped as the clone fired an ecto bolt that left a hole in the bridge.


Meanwhile

The Gang got into their fighting stances as Xana turned his sights to them. They all glared while Xana smirked slightly and charged. He appeared in front of Ulrich swung his blade forward. Ulrich had no time to block so he ducked and brought his swords up when Xana sent his foot forward.

The impact sent Ulrich flying back and Xana charged forward. Odd jumped at him but Xana sidestepped him and hit him with his sword's handle which sent him back. Aelita flew into the sky and flew at him. Xana jumped as Aelita flew at him with energy bolts and kicks.

Xana quickly flipped and ducked as Aelita flew over him. Yumi threw her fans which Xana deflected and fired an electric bolt which hit her. He hears a yell and sees Ulrich charging him with both swords. Ulrich jumps into the air and aims his swords downward on Xana.

"It's over, Xana!" he shouts.

Xana quickly sidestepped Ulrich's attack and Ulrich finds Xana's sword on his shoulder before getting kicked back.

"You don't one in a million against me now, Ulrich." said Xana,

"Drill Claw!" shouted a voice.

Xana looks to see Yumi and Odd charging at him with Odd's claws glowing yellow. Xana quickly stepped forward and grabbed Odd's wrist and ducked as Yumi swung her fans. Xana quickly tossed Odd at Yumi and jumped as Aelita fired her energy spheres. Xana hand started to glow with purple electricity and he fired four bolts which all four targets dodged.

Ulrich used his super sprint and charged at Xana. The demonic AI quickly put his sword in front of him to defend and Ulrich quickly jumped into the air and used his triplication and surrounded Xana. They all charged and Xana reacted by swinging his sword in 360 degrees which took out two of them and Ulrich quickly launched his foot but Xana blocked it with his other hand. Yumi quickly used her powers and sent Xana flying across the bridge.

Xana quickly fired an electric bolt that hit her as he was sent flying which stopped her and allowed him to land on his feet. Aelita fired her energy spheres while Odd fired his laser arrows. Xana just put up an electric shield which blocked them. Xana brought up his sword and swung hit which released black energy blast that flew at them.

Odd and Aelita jumped as the blast neared and created a small blast. Ulrich used his super sprint just as Xana launched the attack and appeared at his left. Xana's eyes narrowed as Ulrich appeared and the samurai quickly sent his knee into his foe's stomach before giving him an upper cut which sent him flying back. Xana quickly retaliated by elbowing Ulrich in the left side of his face and kicked him back.

Yumi jumped in and landed right in front of Xana swinging her fans. Xana jumped back and evaded all of her and quickly grabbed her wrist and tossed her back. They all gathered and turned to face.


Nearby

Danny tripped as the clone landed in front of him and grabbed be the neck. Suddenly a laser fired and hit the clone in the side. They looked to see Danielle, Sam, and Tucker with ecto blasters in their hands.

"Hands off my cousin!" shouted Danielle,

"How did you get those?" asked Vlad, glaring.

"It's easy when you find the lame password is someone you always whine about." said Danielle.

Sam, Tucker, and Danielle than fired on the clone and Sam passed one to Danny who fired as well. The clone created an ecto shield. The clone than started firing ecto bolts but than something happened that even caught Plasmius by surprise. The clone's feet to glow green and ectoplasm started to appear.

"No! No! You were suppose to be perfect!" shouted Vlad,

"Guess it's not as perfect as you thought Plasmius!" said Danny.

"Destroy them!" Vlad ordered.

The clone started to charge another attack when it started to melt towards its knees. It kept charging as it melted towards its waste and fired at the group. The attack failed as the group dodged and it looked at Plasmius with a pleading looking before an ecto bolt shot at its head finished it off. Plasmius' fist glowed with purple ecto energy as he trembled with anger and fury.

Danny takes the distraction and snapped the Specter Deflector he got from Danielle around Vlad's waste and grabbed the remote for the collar. He quickly broke it which shut off the collars and Danny along with Danielle took them off and the collars threw them away. Vlad looked at the screen on one of the pods and gasped.

"No! How did this happen? It was not supposed to happen!" said Vlad.

Danny and Danielle were confused and looked at the screen and gasped. It said Danny, Danielle, and Perfect Son and at the bottom of the screen were the words Mid-Morph DNA with a double helix diagram which led to Danielle's name. They gasped and knew what it meant which made them smile. the clone failed because it never got the Mid-Morph DNA but Danielle got it. But how?

Vlad looked and saw a specter emerge from the computer.

"Xana! So it was him!" said Vlad,

"Close enough." said a voice.

Jeremy's image appeared on the screen. He smiled at the dumbfounded expressions on all who were present.

"I used one of the towers on New Lyoko to take over Vlad's machine and redirect the DNA sequence after what Jazz told me about Danny and his clone. Xana's not the only who can hack." said Jeremy,

"All right! This is so cool!" said Tucker.

"It's better than that, Tuck." said Danny.

Danny and Danielle smiled and looked at Vlad.

"We have two words for you, Plasmius." said Danny,

"Your infamous battle cry." said Vlad, glaring.

"Going Ghost!" shouted Danny and Danielle.

Two white rings appeared around their wastes and transformed them into thier ghost forms.

"Ready to kick this guy's butt, Danny?" asked Dani,

"Always ready to teach this seriously crazed fruit loop a lesson, Dani." said Danny.

"How cute of you, Danielle to name your ghost half after Daniel." said Vlad in a mocking tone.

"How cute and original of you to name me after Danny." snapped Dani,

"Even with this Specter Deflector on me I am still more powerful than you will ever be." said Vlad.

"Then bring it!" shouted Danny and Dani.

Vlad reacted by firing an ecto blast which Danny and Dani quickly fired her own blast which Vlad blocked and counter attacked. Danny and Dani jumped and the blast hits the bridge, kicking up dust. Danny and Dani quickly charged their attacks and they both hit Vlad in the chest. The blast sent skidding across the bridge and he jumped to avoid another blast.

Plasmius growled and flew into the air after them. All three half ghosts started firing ecto bolts but none hit their target and the blast left holes in the bridge. Danny and Dani quickly split up which made it hard for Vlad to hit them. Danny distracted him by firing a fire storm of ecto bolts which Vlad blocked and fired back. Dani snuck up behind him with her own charged attack.

However their plan failed. Vlad hit Danny and then grabbed Dani and tossed her towards her 'cousin'. They both hit the ground and glared at Vlad.

"Even if this Specter Deflector has diminished me I am still more powerful and I will finish my work have the perfect son." said Plasmius,

"You know for one evil fruit loop you sure are stubborn when it comes to getting me to join." said Danny.

"Getting angry are we, Daniel. Ever see anger management?" asked Plasmius,

"Ever see a shrink?" asked Danny.

He fired an ecto bolt but Vlad flew higher and the blast hit the Specter Deflector. Danny's eyes widened at what he done. Vlad smiled evilly.

"Now it is a fair fight." said Vlad.

He split into four Vlads and smiled evilly. They tried to fight back but the four Vlads overwhelmed them with ecto blasts. Danny charged forward but one grabbed him by the neck and another punched him in the stomach with a fully charged ecto blast. Dani ran to help but the other two grabbed her and beat her down.

Danny skidded across the bridge and landed between the Lyoko Gang and Xana. Their fight was put on halt so they could look at Danny. Vlad and his copies merged into one as Sam, Tucker, and Dani ran to see if Danny was alright.

"Who's she?" asked Odd, pointing at Dani.

"My cousin." said Danny.

"Still calling her that, Daniel. Pity because when I am done she will be destroyed and you will be obsolete." said Plasmius,

"That is not going to happen!" said Danny.

"You think because you outnumber me with your little allies you can defeat me? You should have joined me instead of that idiot father when you had the chance then you wouldn't have to fight a female clone of you before she betrayed me. As for you, Danielle you are nothing but a mere clone, a shadow, a fake, a copy, a doppelganger, a duplicate, and you have no purpose in this world for just existing as a failure of my project!" said Vlad.

What Vlad did was his own downfall. With every word Dani was overwhelmed with sheer anger and hate. Her eyes turned a deeper shade of green and her figure shook with fury. Her fists shook as she released all of her anger.

"I AM NOT A FAKE! I AM MY OWN PERSON! I HAVE MY OWN MIND AND LIFE!" shouted Dani.

What happened shocked everyone. Her last words screamed out and released shockwaves throughout the entire bridge. Everyone covered their ears as the shockwaves destroyed everything in their path as it headed for Vlad.

"Oh, sugar cookies!" said Plasmius.

The blast sent him spiraling backwards at such speed he was only a blur.

There were a few things that shocked Xana and this was no different. He was not shocked he was speechless! His eyes widened as the sheer power the girl released which nearly destroyed the entire bridge. Dani collapsed onto the ground and turned into her human form.

Danny looks to see Vlad getting up with a look of sheer anger. However Xana steps forward.

"You've done enough, Vlad. You're ranting nearly caused your defeat after you could have accomplished such an easy task. I will finish what you started." said Xana.

He pulled out his sword and pointed it at the heroes.

"Before you destroy them, Xana can at least get a sample of Daniel's DNA. Since his DNA gave Danielle that vocal attack I will need his mid morph DNA." said Plasmius,

"You can have that after I cleave them to death." said Xana.

With that Xana charged straight at with his own super sprint. Everyone went on defensive but with one strike Xana knocked the wind out of them and sent them flying back. Tucker dropped his PDA and Aelita spotted it.

"Sorry, Tucker, but I need your PDA for a second!" said Aelita,

"I want that back when you're done!" said Tucker.

Aelita ran forward towards Xana as he stood up and placed something in the PDA. Xana put his sword in front himself to defend however that did not stop Aelita. She placed the PDA on the sword and it released an electric shock that sent Xana flying back. He skidded to a halt near the edge and glared at Aelita.

He raised his hand to shock her but to his utter surprise he couldn't! His eyes widened at the realization.

"I converted Tucker's PDA into an EMP bomb with little equipment Jeremy sent them. Your powers are now gone." said Aelita.

"How could you? Even though you defeated Xana what was the price?" asked Taukcer, wailing.

"Relax, man. It's only a few fried circuits." said Odd and then whispered to everyone else, "Though I think a few of his circuits were fried."

With that Aelita lunged forward and knocked Xana back closer o the edge. He noticed the pen knife and picked it up. He jumped up and lunged Aelita but the pink haired girl jumped over him and leapt to kick him in the back. Xana reacted by ducking and Aelita landed in front of him and gave him punch in the jaw.

Xana coughed up some blood as he tried to regain his balance and leaned against the railing. However since Dani's ghost wail left the structure unstable the railing broke apart and Xana fell back. He grabbed the railing that was now leaning over the river. Ulrich used his super sprint to grab the railing.

"Why is he saving Xana?" asked Sam,

"Xana is still inside William so if Xana dies then so does William." said Yumi.

Ulrich reached out with his hand.

"Give me your hand." said Ulrich.

However Xana only smiled evilly.

"Seems like old times, Ulrich. You, me, an EMP bomb." said Xana.

His laughter echoed throughout the entire bridge. The railing was slipping over.

"You're slipping, Xana." said Ulrich.

The railing started to fell over and Xana looked up.

"All right, Ulrich, you win." said Xana.

He put the pen knife his mouth with his free hand and grabbed Ulrich's hand. Suddenly electricity was sent through Ulrich's body which sent his body into such pain he thought it was on fire. He yelled in pain and was sent back. With that Xana fell off the bridge and into the river laughing evilly as he fell.

The laughter echoed as it was silenced. They all looked in horror. Ulrich looked up with a sad look. Vlad turned back to his human form.

"Congratulation, heroes. You took a life before I did and what do you know it was one of your most hated enemies." said Vlad,

"Shut up." said Yumi.

"Too bad it had to end with the loss of an innocent life. As for you, Danielle, you still have no life since Daniel might not explain to his parents without revealing his secret." said Vlad,

"I'll find a way to convince them to let her stay. She won't ever have to let you harm her again." said Danny.

"Like how you allowed my dear partner to fall to his death?" asked Vlad.

He laughed and walked away. They did not go after him this time. That was enough for tonight. They were all exhausted.
