I am so sorry for the late update my leading excuse: I've had writers block for ages and a friend told me I should take a break from Danny Phantom fanfics for a bit.
In a serene and quiet glade in the Colorado Rockies, all manners of animals were grazing undisturbed. But suddenly they scurried as the silence was torn in half as a large green portal opened and a collection of screams (that were slowly getting louder) rang from it. Suddenly our five heroes emerged from it, this time however managing to stop on their feet. Soon afterwards the Spectre Speeder followed them out of the portal as it closed behind them. "Ok," said Gina quickly taking command. "Sam, Tucker, Jazz is there anything on that thing that can help us find Vlad?"
"Nothing we can use on earth," said Sam. "We're gonna have to split up."
"Ok," said Jazz. "I'll go with…. What are your names again?" She said looking at the girls who suddenly looked worried. They hadn't though of names for their ghost selves yet and they couldn't use their real names. "I'm…Permafrost," said Gina making something up on the spot. "This is…"
"Phoenix," said Nicole after some though.
"Aqua," said Alison.
"Shock wave," said Layla.
"And Storm," said Kira finally.
"Ok," said Jazz. "Then I'll go with Storm."
"I'll go with Aqua," said Tucker looking at her flirtingly.
"Don't even think about it Foley," said Aqua firmly. Holding her hand in front of his face.
"I'll go with Phoenix," said Sam.
"Then I'll go with Shockwave," said Permafrost. "Call if you find anything." And with that the groups separated into the woods.
(Jazz and Storm's group)
As the two started to walk Storm decided to ask. "So why did you pick me anyway?"
"Well the last ghost I heard of that could control the weather was Vortex," Jazz answered in her physiologist voice.
"And I was curious if ghost's with similar powers had similar personalities."
"Well…" started Storm not knowing how to answer. When suddenly the two girls heard growling behind them. Quickly spinning around they saw a pair of bright, red eyes in the undergrowth. Before either of them could register what it was a giant, glowing green bear, with four arms and razor sharp claws and teeth sprang out. "O great," Jazz yelled. "It's one of Vlad's pets."
"Yer," said Storm as her eyes and hands began glowing. "Well it's about to become extinct!"
(Tucker and Aqua's group)
"So I was thinking that if I flew up a bit," said Aqua. "I could get a clear view of where Vlad's might be."
"I was thinking whether or not you had a boyfriend," Tucker said. Still pushing his luck.
"Tucker," growled Aqua starting to get annoyed. "Can you keep your hormones in check till we find Danny!" Angrily she flew upwards.
"Nice going Tucker," he said to himself as he saw her fly off. But his thoughts were driven out by the sound a snapping twig behind him. Looking behind, he saw himself staring straight into the eyes of a giant, blue and black striped tiger. "Nice…Kitty, he he. AQUA HELP!!"
Up above the treetops, Aqua shielded her eyes from the sun as she looked around. When she heard Tucker yell "Aqua help."
"Great," she said to herself. "What is it now?" Flying down she was shocked to see Tucker being held between the gigantic paws of a ghostly tiger. "A little help here," he called out.
"Don't worry," Aqua said as her eyes began to glow. "I'm on it."
(Sam and Phoenix)
As the two of them walked along, Phoenix noticed that Sam still had that distrustful look in her eye. "Look I know you don't like me or my friends," she said finally breaking the silence. "But I just want to know why?"
"Look I just find it odd that I've never even heard of you until today, the day after Danny disappeared. For all I know you and your little friends could have kidnapped him and are actually leading us into a trap!!" She yelled into the guardians face.
"No offence to your 'amazing' theory Sam," said Phoenix sarcastically, now more than a little ticked off. "But it was your choice to come we didn't force you to. And besides, it's been a whole hour since we left your friends. If I wanted to capture you I would have done it by now!"
As the two stood glaring at each other, they were knocked back to reality by a loud roar. Turing to look they saw a giant, red boar like monster tear it's way towards them (think the boar monster that went after Mikey and Lester in Claw of the Wild). "Guess this is a good chance to show you which side I'm on." Said Phoenix as her hands suddenly bust into flames.
(Permafrost and Shockwave)
"Permafrost," Shockwave giggled as the two halfa's walked along.
"It means permanently frozen," she explained. "Anyway are we discussing names or…" she was cut short by her ghost sense going off and took a fighting stance. "You sure it's not just the box ghost?" Her theory was ruined however by a giant, ghostly snake suddenly knocking Permafrost to the floor and zipping back into the undergrowth. "Spoke to soon," moaned Permafrost as she got to her feet clutching her side as Shockwaves hands began to crackle with energy. It had begun.
Ok this chapter is just to get character names out of the way and set up the girl's first battle. Also so we can see Sam, Tucker and Jazzes reaction to this whole thing. Till next time (and I promise it will be sooner this time) Mystic out.
