"What happened?" Danny asked once more. He realized that he wasn't in his ghost form and was becoming more and more anxious as the silence continued.
Sam and Tucker pushed their way past the Ghost Tribunal and the Fairy Council who had surrounded Danny. "What were you thinking, man?" Tucker asked. "Trying to possess the Master?"
Danny shook his head. "I'm not sure." He looked around suddenly. "Where is the Master anyhow? You guys have no idea what I found out while inside his head."
Clockwork appeared before Danny. "The moment you stopped possessing the Master and came out of his body, he disappeared in a dazzling white light. We've no idea what happened to him."
"It is true," said the fairy in blue. "But it seems, for now, that we need not worry."
"What do you mean?" Danny asked. "He could still be out there."
"Alas, we fear that very well may be the case," Clockwork agreed, "but while you were unconscious the Ghost Tribunal and Fairy Council joined together to search for any traces of the Master. When we came up with none, well that is when you woke up."
Pandora smiled down at Danny. "Without your efforts, Danny, Earth, Fairy World and the Ghost Zone would cease to exist."
Danny nodded. "We better get back to Dimmsdale," Danny said. "I want to give Timmy my thanks."
"We can help you there!" Wanda exclaimed.
"First, there is something we must discuss," said the fairy in pink.
"The matter of Danny and his friends' knowledge of fairies," said the fairy in turquoise. "There is a lot you three have seen," he said speaking to Danny, Sam and Tucker.
"Can we trust you with this secret?" asked the fairy in blue. "For if we cannot, your memories shall be erased."
"We won't say a word to anyone," Danny promised.
The Fairy Council placed their hoods back upon themselves hiding their identity once more. "Then go in peace, Danny Phantom and friends. If ever we are in need of your services we shall call upon you." Wanda, Cosmo and Poof then poofed themselves back to Dimmsdale to the home of Timmy Turner.
Timmy was sitting at his desk completely and utterly bored out of his mind. He had wanted to stay in Fairy World to help Wanda, especially since Cosmo and Poof were still missing, but he knew Danny had to be the one to defeat the Master. That is when Timmy's fairies poofed into his bedroom with Danny and his friends.
Timmy saw Wanda, Cosmo and Poof and immediately flew himself into their arms, embracing them all. "How did you two…?" he asked Cosmo and Poof.
"Um, we're not really sure," Cosmo said. "Some mysterious stranger set us and the other creatures the Master had locked up free. We never got a name."
"I don't care who it was," Wanda said. "You and Poof are back and that's all that matters."
"What happened?" Timmy asked. "Tell me everything!"
"Danny tried to kill himself, that's what happened," Sam said, her arms crossed facing away from the group.
"Um, what are you talking about?" Timmy asked.
But Sam would not reply, creating an uncomfortable silence amongst the group. Danny sighed. "I possessed the Master. An ability I don't often use, and feared wouldn't work."
"And it did work?" Tucker asked.
"Like you wouldn't believe," Danny said.
"What do you mean?" Wanda asked. "You said you found out something about the Master."
"A lot, actually," Danny replied. "I didn't want to alarm anyone in Fairy World, but I know what happened to the Master."
"How?" Sam asked, her anger subsiding.
"I was with him," Danny said. "Well, sort of. I was inside his memories." Danny then went on to explain just what he saw in the Master's memories. There was a tangible silence. Finally Danny took a breath once he was done with his story.
"This all makes sense," Sam said. Everyone looked to her in confusion. "That explosion that happened when Vlad messed up on the Ghost Portal created the Ghost Zone, creating Earth at the same time. If the Ghost Zone didn't exist out of space and time, I'd say it was impossible, but we have proof!"
"I am confused. Didn't you say you saw Vlad and the Master at the same time?" Tucker asked Cosmo.
"Sure did!" Cosmo replied.
"Right, so how is that possible?" Tucker asked.
Danny shook his head, trying to clear his mind. "I'm not altogether sure. But it all fits together. The Master said he was the first ghost created and was even in charge of Pariah Dark. What if he gave Pariah the Ring of Rage and Crown of Fire? That would explain why Vlad was so desperate to get them. They once belonged to him."
"It's a theory," Sam said. "I mean in case the Master ever fell Pariah would have been a suitable replacement. And he ruled many years after."
"But how did the Master return?" Tucker asked. "And how was he defeated the first time?"
"The Fairy Council took care of that," Wanda said, happy to share information she knew. "I guess a good deal of ghosts were unhappy with the Master and they created a pact with us fairies. A good deal of years later that Pariah fellow was also overthrown."
"It still doesn't explain where the Master is now," Danny said.
"For now we should focus on finding your parents and getting home," Sam said. "I'm sure they're sick with worry."
"Good point," Danny said. He turned to Timmy and smiled down at him, extending a hand. "Thank you Timmy. Without you and your fairies, well let's just say I'm extremely grateful."
Timmy smiled up at Danny. "I'm glad!"
At that moment a news flash on Timmy's television caught everyone's attention. "This is Chet Ubetcha reporting good news! The ghosts that have been haunting Dimmsdale have fled! Thanks to the Polter-Geeks and equally heroic ghost specialists Jack and Maddie Fenton have rallied the townsfolk and saved the children of Dimmsdale!"
Jack, Maddie and Timmy's parents were on camera with Chet, in the middle of town. "Anything you'd like to say to the people of Dimmsdale?"
"We were happy to help," replied Maddie. "And if any of you have seen our son Danny, tell him he's grounded."
"Awww man," Danny said. Everyone laughed. "Thanks again," Danny said as he made to leave.
"Come back anytime!" Wanda said as Sam and Tucker followed after.
"What a long day," Timmy said.
"You said it," Cosmo said. He raised his wand and changed into a pair of pajamas and began to sleep in midair. Wanda rolled her eyes.
Just then a blaring sound erupted waking up Cosmo who hit his head on the ceiling. A green portal opened up in the middle of the room, though it wasn't reminiscent of a ghost portal. "Is this thing on?" a voice asked.
Timmy and his fairies looked on in curiosity, though a bit wary. Suddenly the image of a young man came on, someone Timmy hadn't seen in quite a while. "Jimmy?" Timmy asked. "Jimmy Neutron? Is that you?"
"It's fudge-head!" Cosmo exclaimed.
