Chapter 5: The Fight

Luckily for Danny, the shaft got wider so there was more room to move around. And it wasn't long before he found the exit.

"GUYS! FOLLOW THE SOUND OF MY VOICE! I FOUND THE EXIT!"

Apparently they weren't far behind him. And by they, Sam and Valerie. Little did Danny know, both girls who had crushes on him had basically fought for the title of being 'Second in the Shaft'

Sam won only to find no Danny

The three climbed out of the shaft onto the roof of the abandoned hospital. Danny, forgetting his modesty, stretched causing the girls' mouths to drop

"What?" he asked when he saw the gapping mouths.

When they didn't answer, he followed the trail from their eyes to his abs.

Danny winced. His second biggest secret was out.

He had muscles and was starting to get to a point where he'd start rivaling Dash. He wore bigger shirts to hide that little fact.

"You're SURE you don't hunt ghosts?" Valerie asked

Danny checked his watch. 5 minutes.

"Well, well. Looks as if you've found the loophole in my brilliant plan" a voice came from behind them

The trio turned and they narrowed their eyes

"Plasmius" they hissed

"Aren't we in a little predicament" Plasmius teased Danny. "Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, and nowhere to keep a certain secret a secret"

"Got that right, Vlad MASTERS" Valerie said angrily.

"What?" Plasmius exclaimed before glaring at Danny

Danny gave him a 'don't look at me' look

"I went back to check on you after that little incident with Dani" Valerie explained. "I SAW what you are. The transformation…that holographic image of Danny's Mom…"

"Now that's just SICK" Danny said playing innocent as he checked his watch.

3 minutes.

"Sam" Danny whispered as Valerie yelled at Plasmius about how she didn't appreciate being a pawn "I'm sorry, but there's no other way out. I HAVE to reveal myself. And with Valerie weaponless, she may be more willing to listen"

"How much longer do you have?" Sam asked

Vlad shot an ecto blast at Valerie. She used her black belt skills to dodge

"Now two minutes" Danny said

Suddenly, Vlad duplicated and grabbed both girls by their necks.

"Who's it going to be Daniel?" Vlad asked

Danny looked at his watch.

One minute and 30 seconds….29

"you are seriously one twisted fruit loop Vlad" Danny said "It's no wonder my mom chose Dad over you"

Danny backed up towards the edge of the building.

"Pretty clever of you" Danny added "Making me go 'missing' hoping that some ghost will finish me off because Valerie was with us without her suit so you can comfort my Mom. But you forgot one little detail…"

Sam's eyebrows shot up. Maybe Danny wasn't as clueless as they thought. but then again, he probably knew Vlad pretty well by now since the villain had been his parents' best friend plus the loads of time they've fought.

"And what might that be Daniel?" Vlad holding Valerie asked

"Danny! No! You can't fly!" Valerie screamed sensing what he was doing

Danny took a step back and fell off the roof

"What is he doing?" Vlad holding Sam asked the other who shrugged

"Three…two…one…" Sam counted down

There was a flash and suddenly, not one, but TWO Danny Phantoms flew up.

Both looked furious

"You did it!" Sam cheered. "You perfected your duplication process!"

"Only by two" Vlad holding Sam smirked as the two Vlads split

The two Dannys then split and each took on a Vlad, the two taking care of the ones with the hostages made sure that the girls were safe before getting violent.

The Danny that had helped Sam was the real Danny

"I won't let you harm my friends!" all four Danny's chorused

Sam grabbed the Plasmius Maximus (which she had taken away from Tucker) and yelled, "Danny! Catch!"

The real Danny caught it and used it on the Plasmius he was fighting. The other three Plasmiuses vanished and the ghost turned into a man and Danny absorbed his copies

"Should have thought about this before stuffing it into Tucker's backpack" Danny teased in a sing-song tone

"Oh Fudgecakes" Vlad pouted

Danny flew at Vlad, turned them both intangible, and flew him down to an emergency room where he strapped Vlad to a gurney.

"See ya 'round V-Man" Danny teased before flying back up to face the girls, namely Valerie.
