Danny and Sam laughed as they ran away from the scene and into Ghost Zone Lands, Danny then turned back into his ghost form and the two stopped to rest a minute.
"Alright it worked. I am a genius" Danny said with a satisfactory smile.
Sam then frowned at that and said, "Hey genius, it was my idea"
"Yeah but I pulled it off" Danny retorted back, Sam then said, "With me!"
"Oh yeah" Danny said and then pushed her to the ground. They rolled over and then Sam pinned him down, with one of his arms behind his back.
"Don't ever go up against a Goth Danny" Sam laughed out.
"Okay let me up" Danny said as Sam got off him, he then smiled and tried again, the two of them rolled down a hill and Sam once again had Danny pinned down as she said, "Pinned you again"
A small geyser then went off, causing the two to jump. They looked around the area and saw something at the top of a small hill, as they walked over there, they noticed that it was foggy and grey everywhere.
"This is it, we made it" Danny said as they came up the hill and saw a huge elephants skull sitting there, they then walked over to the edge of the other side of the hill and saw all the skeletons everywhere.
"Woah" They both said in unison, Sam then said, "It's really creepy"
"Yeah I know. Isn't this great?" Danny asked.
"We could get into big trouble" Sam said with a wry smile and then Danny said, "I know"
They both then looked at the skull in front of them in awe. Sam then asked, "Okay I know I'm an ultra-recyclo vegetarian, but that is pretty cool and creepy looking"
"Come on, let's check out the inside" Danny said and the two were about to walk inside of it, until there were stopped by Jazz who appeared in front of them on her hover board.
"The only checking out you will do is out of here. We are way beyond the boundary of the kingdom" Jazz said in fear as she jumped off her board.
"Well look, book worm is scared" Danny joked out.
"It's Ms Book Worm to you shrimp and right now we are all in grave danger" Jazz said.
"Danger? HAH! I walk on the wild side, I laugh in the face of danger" Danny said and then he laughed out loud, but they all jumped in fright when they heard a gunshot in the air.
Suddenly out of the skull, came three outsider ghosts. One had flaming blue hair, black rock star clothes and a purple guitar her name was Ember MacLaine, the second one had a flaming green Mohawk and a high-tech battle suit his name was Skulker and the third one was a huge red ghost with razor sharp teeth that was called Behemoth.
"Well, well, well. Skulker what have we got here?" Ember asked smiling.
"Hmmm, I don't know Ember. What do you think Behemoth?" Skulker asked the ghost behind him, who merely growled and laughed evilly.
"Yeah just what I was thinking, a trio of trespassers!" Skulker yelled out in anger as he glared at the three of them.
"And quite by accident I assure you, a simple navigation error" Jazz said and they tried to leave, but Jazz was stopped as Ember grabbed her hand and said, "Wait I know you. Your Jack's little stooge"
Jazz snatched her hand out of her grasp and said, "I happen to be the king's assistant"
All three ghosts then began to surround them all as Skulker said looking at Danny, "That would make you…"
"The future king!" Danny snapped at Skulker, Sam was starting to get a bit frightened.
"Do you know what we do to kings who step out of their kingdoms?" Ember asked.
Danny scoffed and said, "You can't do anything to me"
"Technically they can, we are on their land" Jazz said with fear.
"But Jazz, you once told me they were nothing but stupid rogue ghosts" Danny said, suddenly Skulker got into their faces and shouted, "Who you calling stupid?!"
"Oh my look at the time, we better get going!" Jazz exclaimed as they tried to run off again, only to be cut off by Ember.
"What's the hurry? We'd love for you to stick around for a bit" Ember said grinning evilly.
"I don't think so!" Jazz screamed, she then pulled out a smoke bomb and smashed it against the ground.
When the smoke cleared, they were gone! The three looked around and suddenly noticed the three fleeing from the scene, Danny carried Sam in his ghost form while Jazz flew up in the air on her hover board.
Jazz fell behind a bit, but was suddenly snatched off her board by Ember. Danny and Sam then stopped for a second and looked around as Sam asked, "Did we lose them?"
"I think so" Danny answered, he then noticed Jazz not there and asked, "Where is Jazz?"
Ember and Behemoth held onto Jazz as Skulker messed around with her board while saying, "Just a little tweak and you'll be blasted off like a rocket"
They then strapped her to it as she screamed, "Oh no! Not again!" Skulker then pushed the button and she was blasted off screaming, all three ghosts laughed at her misfortune until they heard Danny yell out, "Hey! Why don't you pick on somebody your own size?!"
"Like you?" Ember asked galring at them and then Danny said as he realized his mistake, "Oops!"
Ember then tried blasting them with her guitar, but missed as they dodged and began to run. Danny grabbed onto Sam and they flew off into the air, but Danny was suddenly blasted by a ray Skulker sent out and it cancelled out his powers, turning him back to human form. They both landed on a hill of bones and they both immediately began to climb up it.
"Danny! Help!" Sam screamed out, Danny turned around and saw Sam falling down the hill. He ran back down and grabbed Sam just as Ember was about to hit her with a blast from her guitar, Danny then grabbed one of the bones and scratched Ember's cheek with it.
Ember screeched in pain, but then growled in anger and glared at them with the intent to kill. The two then ran into a cave, but stopped as they hit a dead end. Danny tried to go ghost again, but he couldn't he was still under the effects of Skulker's blast.
The two then gasped as they were surrounded by the three ghosts, Skulker then growled out, "Got ya now whelps"
Danny stood in front of Sam and could feel a small amount of his powers returning, he then tried to do a trick he was just starting to learn from his dad; The Ghostly Wail. But when he tried, nothing came out but a yell, earning himself to be laughed at by the ghosts.
"That was it? Try again, I dare ya!" Ember dared him.
Suddenly the three were blasted back by a powerful wail, Jack then flew in and began to attack the three rogue ghosts. Jazz came in and stood with Sam and Danny as they watched the fight. Jack then pinned the ghosts down in front of him, all three of them shook in fear of the angry king.
"Please don't hurt us! Uncle!" They all begged and then Jack shouted, "SILENCE!"
"Okay we're gonna shut up right now!" Skulker said quickly.
"We're really sorry!" Ember said with fear.
"If you ever come near my son again, I'll do more than just hurt you!" Jack threatened them, his hand's glowing with ecto-energy.
"Oh this is your son? Did you know that?" Ember asked Skulker who then shook his head and asked her back, "No! Did you?"
"No of course not!" Ember answered and then they both asked Behemoth, "Behemoth?"
Behemoth then nodded with a stupid smile, Jack then fired his ecto-energy into the air and then the three ghosts flew away in fear. Danny then walked up to his dad and began to say, "Dad I…"
"You deliberately disobeyed me!" Jack snapped at him in anger. Danny cringed and then tried apologizing, "Dad I'm sorry"
"Let's go home" Jack said and began to walk out with Jazz, Danny and Sam trailing behind. Danny and Sam looked down sadly at the ground, realizing how much trouble they are in, as they walked Sam whispered to Danny, "I thought you were very brave"
They all left the cave, unaware that Vlad was watching them invisibly in his ghost form, angry that his plan didn't work. It was now early in the evening when the four of them arrived back into the kingdom's boarders, Sam kept looking at Danny worrying about him for she knew that he was the one who was in more trouble than she was.
"Jazz" Jack called, Jazz then walked in front of him and asked, "Yes sir?"
"Take Sam home, I got to teach my son a lesson" Jack ordered.
Jazz then came over and summoned her brand new hover board and said, "Come on Sam, get on" Sam then got on the board, before Jazz left she said to Danny, "Danny, good luck"
Danny then watched the two of them fly off, he then cringed as he heard Jack call, "Danny come here"
Danny then walked slowly over to him while continuing to look down at the ground, he stood by Jack and looked up to see his angry face.
Jack then looked down at him and said, "Danny I'm very disappointed in you. If I hadn't had come at that last minute, you could've been killed! You deliberately disobeyed me and what's worse? You put Sam in danger"
"I was only trying to prove I was brave, like you are all the time" Danny explained.
"I'm only brave when I have to be. Danny being brave, doesn't mean you go looking for trouble" Jack said in a calmer tone.
"But you're not scared of anything" Danny said, Jack then said, "I was today"
"You were?" Danny asked and then Jack answered as he got down to Danny's height, "Yes. I thought I might've lost you"
"Oh I guess even adults get scared sometimes huh?" Danny asked. Jack smiled and nodded his head, knowing his son was getting the point.
"But you know what? Those ghost were even more scared of you" Danny said smiling at that.
Jack then laughed and said, "That's because no one messes with your old man"
He then grabbed Danny and began to give him a noogie on the head, Danny turned into his ghost form and slipped out of his grip and tackled him to the ground, the two laughed as they laid down in the grass from their little rumble.
Danny turned back into his human form and asked, "Hey Dad? You'll always be there for me right?"
Jack then sat up with Danny and said, "Danny let me tell you something that my father told me. Look at the stars, the great kings of the past look down on us from those stars"
The two of them looked up at the starry night sky with wonder as Jack continued, "So whenever you feel alone, just remember Danny that those kings will always be there to guide you and so will I"
"You promise?" Danny asked. Jack nodded and answered, "I promise you my son"
