Luiz4200: 'Jake? Do you mean the boy whose mom Dad used to crush on?'
"Is Jake Paulina's son?
Great deduction, Luiz4200. Jake is Paulina's son. I might have a few more mystery characters appear later.
Clockwork's Journal
Time and Dates are irrelevant to me as I am the keeper of time. I will try to keep this journal that Danny and Sam gave me as a gift as clearly as I can.
I had come across an old stone here in the Ghost Zone some time after Danny had saved both worlds from the "Disastroid". It had a poem of some sort on it. This is what it said:
"When two children of two worlds appear
Danger may be near,
A father's plight
Becomes their fight,
Future meets Past
Hope may last,
Brother and Sister they will seek
Together are strong, alone are weak,
If but two can act as One
Evil can be undone
I had no idea what this meant, but I soon found out.
Danny and Sam had informed me that they were expecting twins. A boy and a girl. I was told that they were going to name the girl Daniela and her brother Samuel. I allowed myself a smile as their choice of names were a twist on their own. I had to return to my lair and also work on Danny's present, a lair to strengthen his powers in safety and, if the time comes, to train his children.
"When two children of two worlds appear"
I checked my future rings and saw possible futures for them. In one, I saw that they both had their father's powers, another had just one with powers, while yet another showed the opposite, leaving the third with them not having Danny's powers. When watching the one with the two of them having powers, I realized that that poem was, in fact, an ancient prophecy. I couldn't believe that Danny's children were quite possibly a part of this foretelling of events.
I informed Samantha and Daniel of this prophecy.
I was watching the twins when they were eight years old. I wasn't too surprised that their "inheritance" appeared when they were distressed in that classroom setting. I decided to show myself to the children that Halloween. The boy, Sammy, was dressed like his father from when he was a few years older, but the resemblance was striking. His sister, Danni, was costumed as a ghost princess, hiding her angelic face underneath a dark purple hood. My appearance startled the children at first. Seconds after telling them that I was a friend, Sammy, being the bravest came forward, followed shortly after by his ever cautious sister. Sam, understanding that I had something to say, took the children a few houses away while Danny and I conversed. I told him that the time for the Twins transformations was not far off and that he needed to keep an eye on them as I was unsure when this would happen. So many timelines, so many options.
I had seen young Daniela and Samuel come into their father's legacy. Unfortunately, Daniela was fighting a cold and her fever was preventing her from transforming properly. Samuel, on the other hand, had thought it to be a bad case of the chills and tried to cover this up by wearing sweaters. He changed after the chills were too much for him, and was just fine after that. I checked Daniela's near future and saw that her cold and emerging powers would place her life at risk. I warned Danny and Sam of this. Danny made the right choice and saved his daughter's life.
Shortly after this, Vlad returned to Earth and the Ghost Zone. He was intent on stealing the one thing that I was guarding for the sake of both worlds, Dark Dan.
"Danger may be near
A father's plight"
After this incident, I warned Danny of this threat. He asked that I take the children and their cousin to the past where they would be remotely safer. His sister volunteered to go ahead to prepare some required arrangements.
Once the children were ready, Danny brought them to me for protection. They were to stay with me until his sister was ready. I sent them to their parents' past as agreed upon earlier.
"Becomes their fight"
Once there, the children made friends with their parents' past selves, revealed their secret when Sammy was captured by Skulker.
"Future meets Past"
Daniela and Sam were captured by Freakshow and given to Vlad, who had met the children earlier and given a message from his future self afterwards. Vlad did something to Daniela, making it to where the poor girl was under his control. Sammy came and gave me the pass-phrase, and I brought his parents from the future to help. They were able to release Vlad's hold on the girl and took her home to recover. They were accompanied by their past selves to the future.
"Hope may last"
I have an important meeting to attend, the observants are getting antsy again. I just hate it when they get this way. I'd better hide this as they tend to snoop a bit where they're not supposed to.
