Chapter V: The River Amazon

Danny made his way through the amazon jungles, it was damp and yet at the same time mild. Danny was running through the jungles, intangible. It was probably the best way, that way he could cover more ground, plus the pesky blood-sucking mosquitos couldn't get him. Danny stopped for a moment, turned tangible and started to catch his breath. Even a Halfa can get tired or running after a while; he needed to save his power and strength for when he needed it.

Danny looked back behind him to see if he had already been found by Skulker. He couldn't tell, as far as he knew he still had an hour head start. Danny turned around and…felt himself falling. Danny realized that he had tripped on a root; Danny started to fall as the ground inclined. Soon Danny felt himself rolling down the side of a cliff. Before Danny could react, he fell into a bunch of vines, breaking his fall somewhat. Danny started to twist and turn, until he noticed what was below him.

Danny looked down to see a river of brown water, rushing below him, wait a minute, the water. Danny knew that if he could get to the water, he could hide his scent from Skulker. It won't work he thought, but it would buy him some time, he just needed to get out of these vines. Suddenly there was a snap; Danny looked to see the vines start to fall, unable to support his weight; Danny breathed a sigh of relief, until he felt the vine around his neck.

Danny paled as he one by ones the vines detached and fell, Danny felt himself sinking, he looked at the vine around his neck. Danny panicked, and quickly thinking turned intangible, at the last moment, saving him from a quick but painful death. Danny breathed a sigh of relax, only to panic again as he fell into the waters below.

Danny's vision was blurred, as he was knocked against rock after rock by the rushing rivers. Danny managed to grab hold of one, and pulled himself up to the surface. Danny lay on the rock, regaining his breath as he dried himself in the sunlight. But, he felt something strange; Danny raised his hand to see two giant leeches attached to it, sucking his Ectoplasmic blood, although it's mostly ectoplasm at the moment, it still has human blood mixed with it. Danny grabbed the two slippery bloodsuckers and ripped them off, before throwing them back into the water from which they came.

Danny looked at the two round holes in his skin; they were already starting to heal. Danny looked at the rushing river before him. It was actually probably the best bet at the moment, it's too risky to fly above the trees, Skulker could easily spot him, it took so long and was exhausting making his way through the jungle, in the river he could travel fast, if leeches are the only problem it was a safe bet. Besides Danny remembered Frostbite telling him that his ice powers would eventually allow water powers to manifest, plus Ghosts could breathe underwater. Without a second thought Danny hoped into the water.

As soon as he entered his vision became blured, Danny was told that some ghosts have a second eye lid, he hoped he had one. Danny concentrated, hard, wanting to see what was ahead of him in the mucky waters, and it did. Danny was amazed, he could see clearly underwater without the aid of goggles. He did think it a little weird to have another eye lid though, but that can come later. Danny started to make his way through the water, he was almost hovering like a shark as he swam, almost like he was floating beneath the surface.

Danny knew that as long as he stayed under the water, Skulker would have a hard time tracking him, which means it was harder for him to be found. Suddenly Danny felt a sharp pain in his leg; Danny looked down to see a small skinny fish, biting his leg. Danny reached down and pulled it out, and was surprised to see it had two fangs, each two inches long. Danny looked down at his wound, a mist or red and greed were pouring from it. Danny looked at the fish again, and then it hit him he remembered seeing this fish.

Danny remembered, one day he was channel surfing and he came across a show called River Monsters, this guy went around the world, catching dangerous fish, Danny remembered that the one he watched took place in the Amazon. So that's where Danny was, he was in the Amazon, and this was a Payara, or Vampire fish. Suddenly Danny remembered what else was in the Amazon River; he looked to see his blood still entering the water.

Danny let go of the fish and continued to swim, trying to make his way towards the shore, land was actually the safest bet at the moment. Danny turned to look to see if there was anything behind him, only to turn back and smack into another creature, Danny recovered and turned around to see an eel of some sort, the eel charged at Danny, shocking him. Danny smacked the thing away and continued to make his way to the edge of the river, but something was wrong.

Danny turned around to see his blood was leaving a trail, and behind it was a blur of shapes and bubbles, moving fast. Danny focused on it, and felt his heart drop when he realized what it was, there was a pack of Piranhas heading right for him, in a feeding frenzy, Danny had heard that a pack once stripped a cow to bone in five minutes, Danny swam with all his might for the shore, it was in sight. Danny looked to see they were catching up; one was just able to nibble on his foot. With one last shot, Danny tried to fly underwater, boosting him and sending him flying out of the water.

Danny landed on land, hard, but he was glad he was out of the water. He looked down to see the lone Piranha chewing on his foot, Danny reached down and ripped the bugger off, throwing it back into the water. With that done Danny turned around to continue his journey, only to come face to face with another Amazon surprise.

Danny turned around only to look into the yellow eyes of a snake. The biggest Danny's ever seen, Danny took a quick look at it, and dreaded the outcome; he was standing right in front of a giant Anaconda, its massive body able to squeeze the life out of anything, and then swallow it whole. Danny gulped as the snake smelt the air with its tongue, picking up on Danny's blood. The Snake hissed and lunged at Danny, who barley had anytime to dodge.

Danny jumped out of the way, turning around to face his opponent again, the anaconda shrieked in anger; it lifted its tail and swatted Danny. Danny fell to the ground and the snake acted quickly, wrapping its massive coils around Danny. Danny felt immense pain, he could feel his body being crushed, he could imagining this snake crushing his bones to dust, Danny tried free himself, but the more he struggled the more the snake crushed him.

Danny looked up to see the Anaconda raise its head above Danny's. It opened its jaws, preparing to swallow its prey. Danny only had one chance, he hoped it would work, the snake lunged at Danny. Danny quickly turned intangible, the snake's coils folded in on themselves, nothing to crush, and the snake bit its own body and getting stuck in a knot. Danny quickly grabbed the tail of the serpent and started to swing, Danny with all his might through the giant snake into the water. He looked back to see the snake roar as the Piranhas started to devourer it, there was already bones, Danny watched in amazement and horror as the anaconda was picked clean to bone in a minute.

Wow that was enjoyable, I decided to make it the Amazon because it is one of the largest rainforests in the world, it's also the second largest river and is home to many things, I knew that if Skulker was going ot have a fianl hunt on Earth, it had to be in The Amazon, hope you enjoyed this and there is more to come, see you soon, I'll post the next chapter after this sentence is done.
