chapter 10.
Danny sat down next to Ember sitting across from Jazz. "OK both of you brace yourselves on this." Jazz said opening the book in front of her. Danny and Ember opened it to see photo from early Amity Park. Danny recognized Jack Nightingale Fenton along with Max. "that's him my ancestor who chilling with Embers." Danny said. Jazz nodded. "now look at this the guy was on the run apparently." she flipped the page and what Danny and Ember saw made their jaws drop. Max Nightingale was tied to wood and about to be burnt at the steak. "that's awful." Ember said. Jazz pointed out a news paper article. "yeah and look it said he was blamed for his mothers murder. he kept saying he didn't do it."
Danny and Ember read more on the article. "his mom was stabbed and he was blamed for it?" Ember asked horrified. "indeed." they all turned to see clockwork. "he was framed but he did not do it." clockwork stood by the two looking at the photos. "so if he was burned at the steak how is he still alive?" Ember asked. clockwork only smiled. "who said he died." Danny and Ember looked at clockwork with shocked expression. "how did he live?" Danny asked. "if you would like to see perhaps i should show you. but." clockwork held out his own time medallions. "you must not interact with time. the black star medallions are still soaking in the bowl. you must give me your word you will only observe and not interact." Danny and Ember nodded as they put on the medallions.
later.
Danny and Ember held hands as clockwork pressed the switch swirling them back in time. "time in." he said as swirls erupted around the three of them. as they reached their destination. there was a forest that was black as night only the moon was bright. Danny and Ember blushed to realize they were still holding hands. they quickly pulled back stepping away. clockwork only smirked under his cloak. "if you two lovebirds are done follow me. and stay hidden." he said leading them into the dark woods. soon they reached a town that had a bright orange light in the middle of the town.
"oh no." Ember said putting her hands to her mouth. they looked over to see a burning taking place. Danny and Ember both gasped as they saw max nightingale tied to a steak and in front of him was his father. "Max Nightingale you stand before us for crimes against this town. for the act of murder of my wife angelica nightingale." everyone booed and hissed along as applauded as Max struggled. "father listen to me! i never killed my mother it wasn't me please you have to believe me!" he pleaded. Jack turned and punched the boy making Danny and Ember flinched.
"i have no son!" jack yelled as Max mumbled and fought the blood coming from his nose. "my wife is dead to me because of you you..you..monster!" he yelled at his son. Danny looked and nudged Ember. "look." he said pointing at Max. they looked to see Max's eyes burning. Jack lit the wood on fire and Ember held her breath as Max was engulfed in flame. "now Max." Jack said to the fire. "die in the name of.." he never got to finish as the flames along with the fire exploded in all directions. Danny and Ember gasped as the fire was blown away by none other than Max Nightmare. "its him." Ember whispered. the figure who had saved Embers ancestors the one who appeared after Danny's had disappeared.
Danny watched as his ancestor picked up jack by the neck. "if you are not my father you are my enemy." he threw jack through a house only for him to land in front of the ghosts watching the fight. they quickly became invisible and in time for jack to get up but was smashed into a tree by Max. Danny watched with each painful moment as the two went at it. soon jack was slammed into a tree. Max flew at lightning speed slamming his elbow into his father knocking him out of the tree and into another building. The villagers fled in all different directions as father and son were locked in combat. Jack got up only for Max to grab him by the neck again slamming him into a crater.
"tell me father. what hurts more the fact your son knows witchcraft or that you murdered hundreds of innocents?" Max said slamming his father into the ground again only harder. Max held up his hands and rocky hands burst out of the ground holding Jack in his place. "you practice witchcraft Max you're just like everyone else who was burned at the steak." the hands holding him squeezed harder. "NONE OF THEM WERE WITCHES YOU IDIOT!" jack screamed in agony as his son screamed in hatred. "the only witch in town was the only woman who took care of me who married you. my mother."
Jack looked at Max in anger. "you lie my wife would never be a filthy witch." he said. Max only snapped his fingers lowering the earthy hands so he and jack were leveled. "she was you idiot. she took care of me and you. why would i kill her?" he said angrily. before Jack could answer Max raised his fist covered in fire and punched Jack as hard as he could leaving a fist shaped bruise and burn. "i will find my mothers killer then you will regret everything you have ever done." the rocky hands let jack go only for Max to turn and kick his father into a tree. "and then you will pay father." Max turned only to vanish into the woods.
Danny and Ember watched as Max disappear into the darkness of the woods. Danny turned to see Ember wipe tears away. "poor guy." she said looking where Max was. Danny nodded. "yeah i cant help but feel sorry for him." he said. Clockwork looked at Danny. "sounds like the problem that Walker put you through correct?" he asked. Danny nodded. "well yeah very much like what i went through." Ember looked at him and Danny looked at her back. "long story." Danny said looking at her. Clockwork snapped his fingers and soon the three of them found themselves back at Danny's place. "ill be seeing you two in two days." he said to Danny and Ember. "try to behave." he said vanishing in a swirl of smoke.
