FOURTEEN YEARS LATER
The sun rose over the cliff side, standing on the edge was a fourteen year old Danny Fenton, today Jack was going to take Danny out and show him more around the kingdom. Danny then ran back inside the house and straight to his parent's bedroom to wake up his father.
"Dad! Hey come on Dad wake up!" Danny exclaimed.
He then walked up to Jack, but he wasn't waking up.
"Dad! Dad!" Danny said annoyingly.
"Your son is awake" Maddie said tiredly, Jack then groaned and said, "Before sunrise, he's you're son"
"Come on dad! Wake up!" Danny said. He then tried pulling on his PJ's but it didn't work, considering Jack was very heavy. Danny then smiled and transformed into his ghost half, he summoned up some ice energy in his hands and then placed them on Jack's face.
Jack's eyes opened wide and then he jumped right out of bed from the cold exclaiming, "Okay! Okay! I'm up!"
"I'll meet you outside" Danny said and then flew out the door.
Maddie just laughed at what happened and the two parents then got dressed and headed outside, where Danny was waiting. Maddie then gave her son a hug and watched as the two climbed up the mountain top. The sun finished rising, giving a beautiful view from on top of the rock.
"Listen carefully Danny, everything the light touches, both here and in the Ghost Zone is our kingdom. A king's time as ruler rises and falls like the sun, one day the sun will set on my time here and will rise with you as the new king" Jack said.
"So everything the light touches. What about that creepy looking place?" Danny asked as he noticed a darker part of the Ghost Zone.
"That is beyond our borders and not to mention full of rogue ghosts that don't exactly like the idea of humans and ghosts co-existing with each other. You must never go there son" Jack said with a serious look.
"But can't you do whatever you want? I mean you're the king" Danny asked.
"Well there's more to being king, than getting your way all the time" Jack said.
The two were then walking through a meadow as Jack said, "Everything you see exists in a delicate balance. As king you must understand that balance and respect everything that lives in it. Remember Danny, we are all connected in the great circle of life"
"Good morning sire" Jazz said as she flew down on her hover board, she jumped off and Jack greeted back, "Good morning Jazz"
"Checking in with the morning report" Jazz said holding out a clip board.
"Fire away" Jack said.
"Well, unfortunately Kitty and her boyfriend Johnny 13 are arguing again" Jazz began and then continued to ramble on and on.
Danny then decided to practice his ghost powers, he turned into his ghost form and began firing ecto rays and ice beams, but found he kept missing the rocks in front of him. Jack smiled and whispered to Danny, "What are you doing son?"
"Practicing" Danny simply answered.
"Let a pro show you how it's done" Jack said while smiling at Jazz as she continued talking.
"Go invisible and don't make a sound" Jack whispered. Danny did that and then Jack continued, "Now fly quietly behind Jazz and then hit her with an ice ray"
Jazz continued unaware that someone was invisibly behind her, smiling evilly. Danny then made himself visible and blasted her with an ice ray, causing her to scream in fright and fall to the ground shivering with cold. Jack laughed as Danny turned back in his human half and went back towards him.
"That was very good!" Jack exclaimed while laughing some more.
"Jazz! News from the left post" Amorpho said as he appeared in front of her.
Jack was about to get Danny to go again when Jazz exclaimed, "Sire! Rogue ghosts! In the Pride Lands!"
Jack then began to fly off quickly and said, "Jazz take Danny home"
"Hey can I come?" Danny asked.
"No son" Jack answered and then continued to fly off.
"That's so uncool" Danny said as he turned into his ghost form and began flying home with Jazz.
"Don't worry, one day you'll be king and then you can kick those rogue ghosts butt from dawn until dusk" Jazz said as she climbed on her hover board.
An hour later, Danny flew into Vlad's mansion and exclaimed, "Hey Uncle Vlad! Guess what?"
"I hate guessing games" Vlad muttered.
Danny turned back into his human form and said, "I'm gonna be king one day, Dad just showed the whole kingdom"
"Oh goodie. Well forgive me for not leaping with joy, bad back" Vlad said and then he fell into his chair.
"Hey by the way, when I'm king what's that gonna make you?" Danny asked and then Vlad answered sarcastically, "A monkey's uncle"
"You really are a fruitloop" Danny said with a laugh.
Vlad then got up from his chair and asked, "So your father showed you the whole kingdom? Did he show what lies beyond the boarder?"
"No, he said it's too dangerous" Danny said, his smile dropping.
"He's absolutely right! It's far too dangerous, only the bravest go there" Vlad said smirking.
"Hey I can be brave! What's out there?" Danny asked.
"Oh no I've already said too much. An old ghostly elephant graveyard is no place for you. Oops!" Vlad said while covering his mouth.
"Cool!" Danny said with awe.
"Well you would've figured it out anyway. Just promise me you won't go there" Vlad said.
"Sure" Danny said and then transformed back into his ghost form and began to fly out, but Vlad stopped him and said, "Remember Daniel, it's our little secret"
Danny then nodded and left. Vlad then smirked as he realised his plan was working.
