Here's Ember! Hope ya like her!
"Sam? Tucker? Where's Danny?" Jazz asked. It wasn't lunch time yet, but the first period bell had already rung so Sam and Tucker thought that now would be as good of time as ever.
"Jazz, we don't know," Sam started to say, worry in her voice. "We thought that you would…"
"Why don't we just call him?" Tucker suggested.
"That's a good idea Tucker!" Jazz shouted; a little too loud seeing as everyone was now looking at her. They stopped their stares when the late bell rang.
"Darn it!" Sam growled, "We're going to have to do it at lunch. Us getting detention isn't going to help him at all…"
"You're right," Jazz said walking to her next class, "but don't worry too much Sam, Danny can take care of himself…"
Danny was once again walking down a road; a different one this time. The Fenton Thermos swung from his hand, and he was humming a little tune as he walked. He was bored, and when a two-year-old gets bored, they can get rather desperate looking for things to do.
He was in the city proper by now. No more parks or zoos were around; just buildings, people, cars, and noise. While he was walking past a particular building, however he heard some unusual music.
Liking the sound of it, he ran up to the doors and pulled as hard as he could, but they wouldn't open. Then he pushed, still wouldn't open. The doors were locked.
Ignoring the light-blue mist that once again escaped from his mouth, he leaned against the glass doors and sighed.
"Excuse me," a man's voice came from in front of him, "are you lost kid?" Danny's head shot up and saw the owner of the voice mere inches from his face.
"No." Danny shook his head. "I wanna go in there." He pointed inside the building. "Can you open the door pleeeeeaaaassssseeeeee…?" The man looked inside the building, then back at the kid.
"That place's abandoned kid," he said, grabbing Danny's hand. "But come on. We'll go find another place for ya. And maybe we can find your parents…"
"No," Danny whined. "I wanna go in there!" He struggled to get free from the man that was now pulling him down the small flight of stairs.
"Let GO!" Danny shouted, phasing through the man's hand and running back up to the building.
"Wait!" The man shouted, following him.
Danny tripped three-feet from the building and phased through the door. The man stopped running, and fear swept through him. Danny opened his eyes to find he was on the other side of the wall. He walked over to the glass doors that separated him from the man.
"Thanks for the help mister!" he shouted happily, then disappeared. The man's eyes widened. Slowly he backed up until his foot slipped on the stairs, and he fell to the ground. Getting up, he went screaming down the street…
"I thought you said he'd be here, Ember!" one of Ember's servants snapped. They were on top of an old abandoned building playing the gentle version of Ember's song.
"He will be! Just wait," Ember snapped. No one could resist her music, whether they liked it or not…
The door to the roof opened and a little white-haired boy came out with a thermos in his hand. He cocked his head to the side when he saw Ember.
A twisted smile appeared on her face, and she snapped her fingers. Both of her servants disappeared in a puff of smoke, leaving just Danny and Ember on the building.
"Wow you have changed," she said, Danny still looked confused.
"Your hairs on fire too!" he shouted at last. Ember frowned. She turned the dial on her guitar and struck hard on the strings. A pinkish-purple fist came flying towards the little toddler. Danny took a step to the side, and the fist slammed the door shut. Danny's eyes widened and he looked at the pop star.
"That was soooo COOL!" he said happily. "Do you know 'The Itsy, Bitsy Spider'?"
Ember growled in irritation. "I killed the Itsy, Bitsy Spider!" she shouted, cranking the dial again. This time, green waves shot toward Danny, smacking him and pushing him off the side of the building.
Ember laughed and followed him. He must've caught himself because he was waiting for her at the bottom.
"That wasn't the Itsy, Bitsy anything," Danny said shaking his head.
"You're a two-year-old brat and you still manage to get on my nerves!" Ember yelled striking the strings again, causing Danny to smash into a tree.
"Ow…." He wined. "Don't do that!"
"What?" Ember asked innocently and reaching for the dial. "This?"
She struck the strings. Danny covered his ears and flew backwards. He didn't have any help this time. His parents took out Brittney, Delilah helped with Skulker, but with Ember? He was on his own…
"You're going down Phantom!" she shouted, striking her guitar again, "And there's nothing you can do to stop me!"
Danny smacked into a car. That hurt really bad. He couldn't take it anymore. Tears started to appear in his neon-green eyes. His lip quivered as he looked up at Ember…
"Awww…" she said in a sarcastic baby voice. "Are you going to cry?" She laughed, then flew over and smacked Danny with the back of her hand. The child tried to shield himself, but she was too fast.
"YOU'RE MEAN!" he shouted, still trying not to cry.
"I KNOW DIPSTICK!" Ember laughed prepared to hit him again.
"GET AWWWAAAAYYYYY!" Danny yelled and unwittingly unleashed his most powerful attack.
The Ghostly Wail threw Ember 3 blocks back, smacking into trees, cars and buildings along the way. Bystanders covered their ears from the unknown noise and dodged falling rubble from buildings and signs.
When the scream stopped, the silence was replaced with crying…
Ember climbed out from under the pile of wood that had landed on her when she finally came to a stop. How the heck did he do that? The Box Ghost said he was weak!
Something definitely wasn't right here. Limping back to the toddler, Ember reached for her guitar only to find it snapped in two and hanging on by a string.
"How did you DO that?" she asked the bawling Danny who just turned away.
"G-go away y-you big m-meanie!" He stuttered through his tears. Ember grabbed the back of his shirt and lifted him in the air. Turning him around, the toddler was face-to-face with the pop star. His gloved hands were over his wet eyes and his lip was still quivering.
"How. Did. You. Do. That?" Ember asked again. Danny peeked through his fingers too look at the pop star. As soon as he did he stopped crying. After a few seconds of staring at each other, Danny cracked up laughing.
"You look so FUNNY!" he said through his giggles.
And she did. Danny's Ghostly Wail had messed Ember up good. Her clothes were ripped, her hair was all out of place and the flaming ponytail had completely gone out. To top it all off, her make-up was smeared all over her pale face, and her annoyed expression wasn't helping her in the least.
"You look like…" Danny laughed, "…a clown!"
Ember's eyes narrowed and she threw him to the ground, causing Danny to drop the thermos. The clatter drew his attention, and he picked it back up as he turned to Ember.
"Hey, Ms. Clown!" Danny said, still laughing. "Look at this…"
"WHAT! NO!" Ember pleaded, but it was no too late. Danny flipped the switch and was nearly thrown back by the recoil of the thermos. Closing his eyes, Danny held on tightly to the ghost catcher, and Ember joined Skulker inside.
"Wasn't that cool?" he asked when the noise and pressure had stopped. He was the only one there. Looking inside the Fenton Thermos, he waved his hand to get rid of some of the left over smoke that was coming out of it. Then he shrugged his shoulders and walked toward a building with Axion Labs written in big blue letters on top…
"So the Ghost Child's really a Ghost Child?" Technus asked the Box Ghost who was nodding his head yes, "Interesting…"
Technus is next...(uh...der)
