All of them were led to the top of a mountain, where back then whoever lived in the ancient city would use it to have battles. Because Danny was practically fighting for all their lives, he was the only one that was going to fight Dan Phantom, so Jazz unfortunately placed in a ghost proof cage with Frostbite and the others. Danny stood beside Jack as they both stood in front of Dan.

Cujo barked at Youngblood basically saying, "Any chance we can escape?"

"Escape? Not likely, we are trapped in a ghost proof cage and as for Danny well….it's been nice knowing him"

"What's going on dad?" Danny asked. Jack then answered, "Oh the challenge is simple enough, only one man or ghost survives"

Danny eyes widened in shock and then he looked back at the glaring Dan Phantom as lighting hit the sky, Dan cracked his knuckles showing he was ready to spill some blood.

"You're my son. You'll be that man, knock him dead kid. Seriously" Jack said as he handed him the dagger and stepped away.

Danny transformed into his ghost form and stood ready, the thief lifted the sword and once he hit the ground Dan charged. The challenge had officially begun. He started with some punches, but Danny managed to block them and then Dan managed to punch him in the face, the hit was so powerful that Danny fell into the arms of the other thieves. As the thieves cheered for the fight, Jack's face changed to one that was feeling regret.

Dan edged Danny to get back up, Danny got back up and charged at him, Dan tried to punch again but this time Danny ducked and tripped him over by kicking his legs in a sweep. Dan quickly recovered and charged this time with a glowing hand, but Danny dodged again and blasted him in the back with an ecto blast. Dan this time conjured a green ghost fire and hit Danny dead on the arm, which caused him to scream in pain as a part of his arm was burnt.

Jazz, Frostbite, Cujo, Youngblood and Jack gaped in fright and shock. While Danny held his arm in pain, Dan pulled out his own glowing sword and prepared to strike him with it, but Danny quickly pulled out his dagger and blocked the sword's swing, but struggled to keep the sword off as his arm was still in pain from the burn. Jack pushed through the crowd to try and get to them, but he was still being blocked off by the roaring thieves.

Danny pushed Dan back with his dagger, but Dan began to strike back with more ecto punches which made Danny feel weaker and weaker with every strike, Dan was just too powerful for him even if he did have ghost powers. As they came closer to the edge, Dan struck him once more and made him fall to the ground, he then picked him up and held him above his head.

"NO!" Jack gasped out as he watched.

Jazz screamed as Dan then threw Danny over the cliff, but Danny had managed to dig his dagger's blade into the wall and managed to slow down and stop just at another part of the cliff side where there was flat parts to form a ledge. He jumped down on and leaned against the wall to keep himself from falling, he sighed a breath of relief but then gasped as he watched Dan come down and stand in front of him.

"Your time is up boy. What makes you think you can beat me?" Dan mocked.

Danny felt his anger rise higher and higher as he answered, "Because I promised my sister and my family that I'd come home alive"

Dan laughed and said, "Oh you are such a child! You promised?"

"YES! I PROMISED!" Danny screamed and suddenly his words turned into a powerful Ghostly Wail, which knocked him back a bit.

Danny fired another wail and then jumped up and grabbed onto his dagger and kicked Dan in the stomach. Because Dan was really weak from the wail, his powers were diminished and then he fell off the cliff side, leaving a completely shocked Danny who now was in his human form. Danny looked over the edge to see if he survived, but there was no sign of him, suddenly a rope came down for him to grab, he began to climb up and along the way he pulled his dagger out of the wall and placed it back in its cover.

He climbed back onto the floor of the top of the cliff and looked up to see all the thieves staring at him.

"I THOUGHT OUR SIDE WON!" Youngblood exclaimed as he thought they were going to kill him.

"Look I…. I didn't mean…" Danny tried to say but before he could say any more, the thieves began to carry him through a line.

The other thieves broke the cage and began to carry them as well all the way back to the main temple, as soon as the line ended, Danny and the others all stood up and stood face to face with Jack who had his arms crossed and a serious look on his face.

"You killed Dan Phantom. The code of the Forty Thieves is very clear on this point" Jack said, there was moments silence until he simply said, "Your in"

All the thieves then cheered for their newest member.

ALL

Congratulations Bub
You've joined the club and everybody here agrees

(Goliath shook his hand, then he tossed him to another thief who ruffled his hair and then tossed him to another one who tied a rope around his waist. They made him walk backwards, he then fell over the ledge and fall into the arms of more thieves, who then dropped him on the floor)
We got the finest blend of nearly honest men
Welcome to the forty thieves

A fraternity of thugs that you can trust
There's nothing up our eighty sleeves

(Valerie then tossed him some fruit and then Elastica pushed him into a chair, Jazz, Frostbite and Cujo came up to him and stood beside him. Youngblood at first was frightened but then smiled as noticed a small pile of treasure sitting on a table)
Got lots a grub to share
Pull up on easy chair
Welcome to the forty thieves

Now you get to lie and cheat
Never have to brush your teeth

(All of them cringed in disgust as one of the thieves, showed off his yellow broken teeth at them)
But we always aim to please

(Youngblood was about to grab some of the treasure, when he was suddenly pulled away by Lydia, Elastica and Midget Ghost. He became annoyed as they wrapped him in a blanket, put a thermomotor in his mouth and checked his pulse)
Care for one another, you'll never miss your mother

(They then shoved Danny and Jazz towards Jack, Youngblood started heading towards the treasure again and as soon as Valerie noticed him, she sent blasts at him, Youngblood screamed as he dodged the blast and dived right into the treasure)

Welcome to the forty thieves

JACK
Together we're the perfect team
Larceny is in the genes
Dare to share the family dream

(Jack smiled at his children and showed them around the temple, while the thieves began to dance around with ribbons)

YOUNGBLOOD
Live a life or leisure, counting all your treasure
(Someone pulled Youngblood from the treasure and tossed him to Danny as all five of them watched as the thieves advanced on him, showing off their weapons at them)

Ya gotta snatch and sneak or else your future's bleak

Wel, Wel, Welcome to the forty thieves

(They watched them swing on rope and juggle knives, while Jack smiled proudly at his band of thieves)

What they weren't aware of, out near a beach Dan suddenly burst out of the water and wrestled with a shark. The shark was about to pounce when suddenly in just a few seconds, the shark was thrown on the shore dead, Dan came out of the water and flew off with one thing in mind; revenge.
