Beginning A/N: Well, here we are with chapter two of The Ghost King and his Queens of the Multiverse. When we last tuned in, a group of bounty hunters had been killed by an unknown dragon entity and their cargo had been sent falling towards Danny's universe. Just what lies in store for our sixteen-year-old halfa? Let's tune in and find out!
A/N 2: Just a quick disclaimer, but I feel like I should mention this now. On my story, Naruto Frontier, I had gotten a review asking me to pair Naruto with his own sister in my story. Now, this may not seem important to this story, but stick with me. I am being serious when I say that there are three types of story pairings that I will not write in any of my stories. Those being Yaoi(boy x boy), Yuri(girl x girl), and incest pairings. I know that it's fanfiction and not related to real life and all that jazz, but I think that some people tend to ignore the particularly deadly effects of incestuous relationships, particularly in children born from such relationships. So, I shall reiterate that I will NOT write stories with the pairing types mentioned above for any reason! EVER! SO DON'T ASK ME TO DO SO! …You know who you are…
A/N 3: Alright, so, with that out of the way let's move on to the new chapter, shall we?
Disclaimer: I still don't own Danny Phantom, Avatar The Last Airbender, Legend of Korra, Star Wars, Bayonetta, Highschool DXD, Bleach, Teen Titans, Dragon Ball Z, Eragon, or RWBY!
Guardians Talk
"...And that is what happened. Please forgive my failure." said the dragon from before as it bowed before two entities.
One of which was an absolutely massive dragon of European legend and myth that radiated an aura of absolute power, standing at a whopping 700 feet tall at the shoulders. It had a rather stocky build, especially in its limbs, showing that it was built more for close combat rather than speed in flight. Its wings were long and leathery like a bat and appeared to be tattered along the edges of the membranes: the scars from many past battles. The beast had scales that were a rich amethyst purple and had the appearance of chainmail, while its underbelly was covered in thick yet flexible plate-scales that added a layer of protection from more deadly attacks. On its head was a pair of backwards curving horns that were pearl-white like the spikes going down the length of its neck, back, and tail, talons, and the sharp meat-shearing teeth in its mouth. The dragon's eyes were a lighter shade of purple and were separated by vertical slit pupils.
The figure levitating next to the dragon was much shorter but was by no means any less powerful. He wore a cloak with a hood covering his head, the shadows from the hood obscuring his facial features from the nose up, and he wore a Heisei Era Godzilla T-Shirt, a pair of jeans, and a pair of sneakers.
The hooded man waved off the blue dragon's apology.
"There's no need to apologize. What's important is that you prevented them from falling into the hands of the Homunculi who dare to tamper with creation and destroyed that crew of bounty hunters." he said.
"In spite of the circumstances, you have served us well today young dragon. Return to your post and get some rest. It has been a long day for us all." said the purple dragon.
The blue dragon bowed and flew off through a wormhole back into the realm of dragons to rest after his mission. The hooded man sighed and waved his hand to reveal a sort of viewing portal. Within that portal he saw the Danny Fenton of this particular branch of the multiverse. He was sitting through another class in his high school, though it was obvious that he wasn't really interested in the subject being taught at the moment. But then, what child ever wants to sit through a lecture, let alone finds the subject of stories written in the eighteenth century interesting?
"How could we have let this happen, DJ?" the dragon asked his human friend with a snarl. "We are guardians of the multiverse and yet we failed to take notice of those homunculi and their growing power! Now, they're simply too strong for us to deal with on our own!"
"I know how you feel, old friend, but we must remain calm. Hope for the multiverse is not lost. We must believe that young Fenton can defeat this threat to the multiverse alongside the young ladies who have now been misplaced from their proper timelines." DJ said. "I just know that they will help each other grow stronger and that they will become greater as individuals and warriors because of it."
The dragon calmed down, but still snorted a cloud of smoke from his nostrils.
"I understand what you're saying, but I still don't like it. We should have done away with those pesky Homunculi sooner." he said.
"Well, you're right about that." DJ replied.
They turned their attention back to the viewing portal just as the bell rang for the students to go home and watched as Danny set off for home completely unaware of the monumental changes that were about to happen to him in this life.
~Amity Park~
Danny sighed and ran a hand through his hair, idly taking note that it was getting a little on the long side. He'd have to cut it later.
Anyway, it had been another typical day for the young man going through his sophomore year of high school. Wake up, walk to school, maybe fight the occasional Ectopus on his way, get to school, go to classes, avoid Dash and the Jocks, finish classes for the day, walk to the park to train. And that's exactly where he was going now.
Danny couldn't help but sigh. Ever since he refused to use his powers to become some ghost fighting superhero like Sam and Tucker had suggested he do they've been giving him something of the cold shoulder. Well, more like Sam was giving him the cold shoulder while Tucker just remained neutral for the most part. However, something told him that Sam was bribing him with money and the latest in technology. The tech geek was notoriously greedy and even treated his PDA as if it was some sort of sacred artifact from God himself! Tucker also seemed to firmly believe that he was God's gift to women and unashamedly tried to flirt with every pretty girl in their high school, even if they already had a boyfriend. But that's beside the point.
Some days Danny wished that his parents had never built that blasted portal. Then he could go back to living a normal life. Well, at least as normal as one with ghost hunters for parents can have. Unfortunately, it would seem that there were different plans for Danny in life, because he now has ghostly powers that he has to train hard to master. He took a seat on a park bench and just stared up into the sky. He was mentally and emotionally drained as his mind continued to come up with negative scenarios should his parents find out that he's basically half ghost. Especially his rather gung-ho father.
'And not to mention Jazz trying to turn me into her psychological pet project.' Danny mentally grumbled.
Danny felt a sense of calm wash over him as he looked up at the setting sun. The sky was now a vibrant display of orange, yellow, dark blue and violet. The moon was beginning to show, and even the stars were appearing. It was rare moments of peace like these that made Danny feel like his situation was worthwhile. Deciding that he'd wasted enough time sitting around, Danny got up from the bench and began to walk towards his secret training spot. He didn't want to get lazy.
But as he continued his walk, he failed to take notice of several streaks traveling across the sky. At first glance, one would mistake them for shooting stars. But these were something much different. Something that would really get Danny's journey to become a great hero going.
***To Be Continued…***
Ending A/N: Short update, I know, but I really couldn't think of any additional dialogue that could make this chapter longer. I hope that you like it. I'll try to make the next chapter at least 5,000 words long not including Author's Notes. Also, if DJ Rodriguez is reading this, I hope that you like the little cameo that I gave you in this chapter. But that's all I got for this chapter. Thanks for reading and I'll see you in my next update.
