I do not own Danny Phantom or its characters. I only own Max nightmare and Amberlyn.

Chapter 11.

Danny and Ember told Jazz about the events that they witnessed only to have her hands up to her mouth. "wow that mustve been awful to see." she said. Ember nodded. "he was about to die...but.." Danny spoke up. "he changed. He was Max Nightmare the whole time." Jazz nodded. "it kind of makes sense. Danny Fenton. Danny Phantom. Max Nightingale. Max Nightmare." Danny smiled. "he handled himself pretty good against his dad though he was pretty strong." Ember nodded in agreement. "i think the only one ive seen fight like that was you Baby pop." Danny blushed at her smile. "so what are you two going to do for the rest of the day?" Jazz asked interrupting Danny's thoughts. The two looked at each other and back to Jazz who smiled. "how about I give you two some cash and you go on a date." she suggested only for Danny and Ember to blush. "I mean it. You two have been hanging out for the last two months. I think its time you go out enjoy each others company." she said making Danny and Ember blush badly.

Later that night.

Danny waited downstairs in a sports jacket along with a white collar shirt with a pair of black jeans. "cmon Fenton calm down its just a date. You and Ember have gotten along just fine the last few months. You can do this." he took a deep breath as he looked over only for his jaw to drop. Ember came down wearing a velvet red dress along with black high heel stilettos. "Whats gotten into you dipstick?" she asked. Danny blushed and smiled. "nothing its just you look nice tonight." he said. This time it was Embers turn to blush. "well...thanks." she smiled. Jazz held out a wad of bills handing them to Danny. "go somewhere nice and not nasty burger alright?" she asked. Danny smiled. "don't worry Jazz I will im not a cheap skate." he said as he and Ember went out the door. The two took Jazz's advice and went to a small restaurant in downtown Amity Park called Cosmo and Wanda's.(see what I did there?) Ember looked at Danny. "ever been here before?" she asked. Danny shook his head. "no Its just brand new." he responded holding the door open for his date.

The two ate their meal talking. "so not the best way to spend summer vacation huh?" Ember asked. Danny looked at her. "what do you mean?" he asked back. She looked down. "hanging out with someone like me. After everything ive done to you and your friends." Danny looked at her smiling. "hey you're not that bad a person Ember. All you needed was a friend to hang out with." he said. Ember blushed under her makeup. "but..after what I did I tried to get rid of all adults I got a concert together to get rid of other music besides rock and pop. And so far all youve done is be nice to me." she said. Danny kept the smile on his face. "so I can think of worse things other enemies of mine have done." Ember looked at him raising an eyebrow. "like what?" she noticed at once Dannys face changed. "one of them tried to kill my friends and family." embers eyes widened. "what happened?" she asked. Danny looked away. "i try to forget it." he felt a hand on his and saw Embers. "you can tell me." she smiled. Danny smiled back. "well before I tell you can I ask you something?" he asked. She looked at him nodding. "have you ever heard the phrase "the only enemy you cant beat is yourself?"

Jazz spent her night looking over old scrapbooks of old amity park. She grabbed another pot of coffee and drank the whole thing. "gotta stay awake." she told herself. She flipped the page and saw a picture of Jack Fenton Nightingale and a group of people. "these were the towns law keepers?" she asked herself. She read the names and nearly choked at one of them she reread the name over and over again only to drop the pot. "that cant be." she said shocked. "i see you found it." Jazz turned to see clockwork standing in the entry way. "clockwork. Did you know about this?" she asked shaking. The ghost of time nodded. "yes I knew. He picked up the book looking at the person next to Jack. "that is indeed Vlad Masters ancestor. Vladimir Mastres." Jazz looked at Clockwork nervously. "does he have something to do with what happened to Max?" she asked. Clockwork nodded. "in a way yes he is a key factor in the history lesson im giving Danny and Ember." he said smiling. Jazz looked at him smiling. "so why give them a lesson about this anyway? Last I heard Danny and Ember triggered an ancient law of the ghost zone." Jazz asked as clockwork sat down. "it will take a while to explain miss Fenton but I hope your willing to stay awake." he said making Jazz blush.

Ember looked at Danny wide eyed. "so...you had to fight yourself?" she asked. Danny nodded. "yeah he almost killed my family friends and I almost lost." he said. Ember smiled. "but you won didn't you? You haven't had a run in with him did you?" she asked. Danny smiled back. "well yeah but you can thank clockwork for that one. Hes the one holding him in the new Fenton thermos I built." Danny explained. Ember looked at him. "so what did I look like in the future?" she asked. Danny winced. "um yeah about that. My alternate evil half used his ghostly wail and destroyed your vocal cords." Embers eyes widened. "you're kidding right?" she asked. Danny shook his head. "but don't worry I wont do that kind of thing Ember I promise." Ember blushed smiling. "thanks Danny." the two smiled and enjoyed the meals brought to them.
