As the week went on, Danny trained with Austin everyday. He grew stronger and stronger with every spar or training session. Austin was indeed very strong and Danny could barely keep up with him. Danny never beat Austin in a battle, but it didn't matter. His power sky rocketed to an extreme high Danny never thought possible. But now that is all over, and today's the day his enemy is suppose to arrive. Austin left late last night after their final training session, but promised to be watching over him. He wished me luck and he vanished.
Now Danny paced his room anxiously waiting for the arrival of this powerful foe. His week was up and last night his training ended. All he could do now was wait for the enemy to arrive. Sam and Tucker watched Danny, eyes full of worry.
Sam stood up and made her way over to her boyfriend. She placed her hand on his shoulder and he turned around to look at her.
"Danny, calm down. Sit down and relax, pacing your room isn't going to help the situation. It's just scaring me and Tuck." Sam told him and he sighed.
"How can I relax when I know a enemy even more powerful than me is suppose to show up today? Like, what if Austin's training wasn't enough? Sure I'm more powerful than I have ever been, but what if it isn't enough? This thing is suppose to outmatch me in every way. I'm nervous and...I'm scared." Danny replied.
"Yeah, I'm scared too. But you'll do fine. You always came through in the end and there's no doubt in my mind that you'll do it again. We have your back and we will do our best to help you. The result will be the same as it always is. Danny Phantom is going to come out the hero just like he always does. I guarantee it." Sam told her boyfriend, trying to calm his nerves. It seemed to work as her relaxed and wrapped his muscular arms around her waist.
"I sure hope so Sam, but promise me you won't get involved." Danny said.
"But why?" She asked him.
"If this thing is as powerful as Austin says he is, then I want you 2 to stay out of it. I couldn't forgive myself if something happened to you guys. You can watch, as I'm sure everyone else will. But do not get involved, I mean it. I'll take care of this myself." Danny responded and Sam tried to think of something to say. But she couldn't think of anything but a simple...
"Okay." She said and Danny smiled. Danny leaned down and pecked Sam's lips with a kiss.
"Uh, guys..." Tucker said catching the attention of the couple. They looked towards their friend who was now staring out of the window. "We've got company." He added and their eyes went wide. They ran over to the window and stared out as a space pod could be seen spiraling towards the ground at a very fast speed. Without seconds, the pod slammed into the ground and the Earth shook for a moment. The 3 braced themselves as the whole house shook, then came to a stop. The pod didn't land far from here and Danny could sense an unnormal energy from the direction. He gulped and the 3 ran down the stairs and towards the front door. Danny's parents had confused expressions on their faces.
"Daniel, where are you going?" Maddie asked her son.
"No time to explain, I'll be back later!" Danny called out to her and bolted out the front door. They ran down the sidewalk and into the alley Austin dragged Danny into. He then caught his breath and said the familiar 2 words.
"Going Ghost." He said aloud and 2 blue-white rings formed at his waist. One went down his legs and the other up his upper body and over his head. Danny's hair turned pure white, his eyes turning green, and his clothes turning into his black and white hazmat suit. He took a deep breath and looked at the 2.
"I don't think I can carry you both, do you think you guys will be able to find where we are at? I really have to get going." Danny asked and they nodded.
"I think we'll manage, good luck Danny." Sam said and kissed his cheek. Danny smiled and Tucker slapped him on the back.
"Go show him what Danny Phantom is made of!" Tucker said encouragingly. Danny nodded and hovered off the ground. He waved at them and took off flying towards the pod. His mind raced at a hundred miles a minute. He was shaking, nervous of what is to come.
After a 5 minute flight, he reached his destination. He looked down into a large crater which held a space pod no doubt carrying the enemy within it.
Maybe I should just blast it now and get it over with? Yeah, that would work. Quick and easy. Danny thought to himself as his right hand glowed green. He prepared to blast the pod but stopped when the door slowly started to open. Before it could open all the way, the door was kicked off with ease. Danny watched as 2 hands grabbed onto the sides and the man within pulled himself out. He stood in front of the pod stretching, then he looked up. His eyes met Danny's as he began to hover up and out of the crater. He hovered into the air until he reached the same height as Danny. He stopped and eyed his hand, Danny's hand still glowing green.
So close. Danny thought as the green glow slowly faded. The man in front of him grinned.
"So, I suppose you were going to blast me while I was in my pod correct?" He asked, quirking and eyebrow.
"Uh, uhm, well." Danny started but then was cut off by the guys chuckling.
"You don't know how many others tried that already, it only angered me and lead to their downfall." He said and Danny was silent. "So I'm guessing you're the supposed hero who came to stop the villain from destroying the planet, huh? Well you can give it your best shot, but you'll only fail like all the others who stood before me." He added and got into a fighting stance, Danny doing the same.
"This should be a good warm up. Your power is higher than any other I have faced, but no matter. You'll still die like the rest!" He yelled before flying towards Danny. Before he knew it, he was face to face with the man.
He's so fast! Danny thought and he was sent back when the man punched Danny straight on the nose. Danny sailed through the air and then forced himself to a stop.
Wow, with one hit he sent me flying. This is bad. Another thought poured through Danny's head as the man flew towards him again. Danny ducked under a hit only to have a knee slam into his gut. His eyes widened as the wind was knocked out of him. He hovered now slightly bent over as the man cupped his hands together high over Danny. He then swung his hands downward onto Danny's back. Phantom flew towards the ground and collided with it. He groaned as he slowly pulled himself up.
"Maybe I was wrong, this is hardly a competition. You're no fun at all!" He yelled down at the halfa. "Before I destroy you child, tell me one thing. What exactly are you? I have never felt your type of energy before. It's strange." The man said and descended towards the ground right in front of Danny.
"Why should I tell you?" Danny retorted. "How bout you tell me who you are and why are you here?" Danny added.
"You see, I'm sort of a nomad. I travel all through space, killing off the weak and selling the planets to anyone willing to buy. As for who I am, my name is Torok, and as of now I'm your worst nightmare. The reason why I'm here is self-explanatory. I'm here to kill your kind and sell your planet. Simple." He said in a bored tone.
Danny took him by surprise and pounced at Torok. He punched him on the cheek and then under the jaw. Torok stumbled backwards and Danny blasted him with his green ghost ray. Torok flew backwards into a tree and it collapsed as he slammed into it.
"Don't tell me you're done already!" Danny shouted and smirked.
Maybe Austin was wrong when he said...
Torok stood up and brushed the dirt off him. He seemed unphased by Danny's attack, and not a mark was found on his face. It didn't affect him at all!
Nope, never mind.
"Not bad, but you'll pay dearly for dirtying my suit." Torok said and for the first time Danny paid attention to what he was wearing. He had on a black and red skin tight suit. The sleeves had 1 stripe of crimson red that ran from his gloves up and over his shoulder, down his chest and back, and down his legs to his boots. The red also seemed to form a belt looking design around his waist. The rest of the suit was a jet black and matched the color of his spiky hair. His eyes were a crimson red like his suit and he was well built. He was taller than Danny by a good bit, older as well, but not by much.
"Bring it." Danny finally said after observing him.
"Gladly." Torok replied and vanished.
Where did he go!? Danny thought in horror. Before he could realize it, Torok reappeared behind him. Danny looked left and right, even up. He was no where to be found.
"Ahem, behind you." Torok said and Danny spun around, trying to hit him with an elbow. Torok did a back flip up and over Danny. Danny then felt a sharp pain shoot through his back when he felt Torok's elbow connect with his back. He stumbled forward and grabbed his back. Danny growled and spun around, shooting another blast at Torok. Torok stood still and the blast came at him, he then lazily swung his arm and deflected it into the air.
"You still haven't told me what you are." Torok said and vanished again, only to appear in front of Danny. Danny took a step back and Torok kicked Danny on his side. Danny clutched his side in pain and then Torok slammed a powerful blow into Danny's gut once again. Danny collapsed to his knees and spit green blood from his mouth.
"Now tell me." Torok said and crossed his arms over his chest.
"Ok-Okay... I'm a halfa." Danny admitted.
"And what in the hell is a halfa?" Torok asked confused. He pulled his leg back and swung it forward. It slammed into the side of Danny's head and sent him sliding across the ground. Danny howled in pain and grabbed his head. Danny rolled over onto his back and breathed hard. Torok made his way over to Danny slowly and stomped on Danny's stomach one time. Danny spit up more blood and it landed on the chest of his hazmat suit.
"Now tell me, what is a halfa?" He asked, demanding for an answer.
"A halfa is another word for a human-ghost! I'm half human, half ghost okay!" Danny yelled out and Torok looked amused.
"Half ghost huh? That sure is interesting, that's why I never felt your kind of energy before. I never fought a ghost. But anyway, I think it's time we ended this little game." Torok said and his hand grew a dark black. He lifted his hand and directed his palm at Danny.
"Goodbye child." He said and Danny closed his eyes and waited. "Oh, what is this?" Torok said and Danny's eyes flew open. Torok was staring at something, and Danny followed his gaze.
Oh no, he's looking straight at Amity Park! Danny thought and his eyes widened. What is he planning on doing? Oh, right... Kill everyone...
Torok's lips curled into an evil smile. "Oh this should be fun, I'll deal with you later ghost child." Torok said and took off towards Amity.
"No!" Danny screamed at him, but he couldn't find the strength to move.
I have to do something, but I can't move. What am I going to do...
The Town Of Amity Park
People walked up and down the small town of Amity Park like any other normal day. A young girl and her family sat on their porch and enjoyed the warm weather. The little girl was watching a bird that landed on the railing of the porch. She snuck up on it, and then pounced. She reached out to grab it but it flew away. She watched as it flew high into the sky. Her eyes widened when she saw a man hovering high in the sky.
"Mommy, daddy, look!" She yelled and pointed into the sky. The confused parents stood up from their chairs and made there way over to her daughter. They leaned on the railing and looked up in the sky and their jaws immediately dropped when they saw the man. The man floated down towards the ground and softly planted his feet on the road. He glanced around at the stunned citizens and frowned.
"Pathetic, their power levels are extremely low. This should be an easy task." He muttered to himself as a car honked in front of him.
"Hey you, get out of the street will ya! I'm driving here!" The guy inside the car yelled. Annoyed, Torok lifted his arm and aimed it at the car.
"What the hell!?" The guy yelled when a black ball appeared in front of Torok's hand. And without a moment of hesitation, Torok shot a Ki blast at the car.
"AHHHHHHHH!" The man without the car yelled before it exploded into millions of pieces. Torok grinned and both his hands grew black. He hovered again and mumbled.
"Oh yeah, this is very amusing indeed." Torok said before he began shooting black Ki blasts all across the town.
