Chapter 11: The Magic Book that Spells Disaster
Star was furious right now.
And no one could really blame her.
The blonde girl and the rest of Team Phantom had just learned that Misty had kidnapped Danny and they were after her. The blonde girl was getting more and more angry as they kept looking.
"When I get my hands on that little witch, I'm gonna tear her apart!..."Star let out in a low growl.
Tucker and the others saw her like this, and the tech geek got nervous.
"Wow, I haven't seen you this dangerously furious at anyone other than Colette and that Donovan creep..."Tucker commented.
"DO NOT TRIGGER ME, FOLEY! I'M SO MAD THAT I HAVE NO PROBLEM TAKING MY MISPLACED AGGRESSION OUT ON THE NEAREST TARGET!..."Star snapped, looking furious.
Tucker raised his hands in a surrender manner.
"Easy there. I'm not the bad guy in this mess!..."Tucker said, while Jazz got between them.
"Star, calm down..."Jazz said.
"Yeah, don't waste any of that energy yet. We're gonna need all of it..."Sam reminded.
Star took a deep breath, and tried to calm down.
"Sorry, I'm just on edge. I'm really worried about Danny..."She said, looking down.
"We are too..."Sam admitted.
"Let's just keep moving..."Jazz said, since they were pressed for time.
Star nodded, and they continued to search.
A little later
Team Phantom soon arrived to Misty's neighborhood, but they didn't go directly to her house.
"Okay, let's see if this thing can actually track down my Danny-boo..."Star said, as she pulled the Boo-merang out of her backpack.
"Glad we remembered to bring this..."Jazz said, as Star turned it on.
"Okay, Boo-merang. Find my Danny and that little witch who took him, so that we can save him and I can kick her butt!..."Star said, looking concerned for her boyfriend's well-being and anger for the other.
However, before she could activate it, someone spotted them.
"Misty? Where are you?..."Was heard.
Star and the others turned around and saw that it was Misty's mother and grandmother, who were in their car. They have been driving around for a while, trying to find their missing daughter/granddaughter.
However, they stopped when they spotted the group of teenagers, due to recognizing them. Mei and her mother got out of the car and approached them, looking nervous.
"Maybe those kids know where she might be..."Laolao said, unaware they too were looking for her.
Although, for better or for worse, these kids seem to know Misty. So they Mei and Laolao's best chance to track her down and they both decide to follow this new lead.
"Uh...excuse me?..."Mei asked, looking worried now.
"Umm...Hello. Can we help either of you with something?..."Star exclaimed, as she hid the Boo-merang behind her back.
"You children...you...you're friends with my daughter, Misty, right?..."Mei asked, unintentionally angering Star.
"I'M NOT FRIENDS WITH THAT LOUSY LITTLE BOYFRIEND STEALING WITCH!..."Star snapped.
"Star, chill out!..."Sam said.
"Yeah, not helping!..."Jazz added.
Only now did Star see that Misty's mother and grandmother seemed shocked by her outburst. She realized that this wasn't helping, and tried to act normal right now. Which was much easier said than done for the blonde girl at the moment. However, she remained as calm as she can be.
"I mean… we're acquaintances…"Star lied with a forced smile, pretending to be calm while listening to what the older woman was about to asked Team Phantom.
Mei looked ready to snap at Star, before recalling her daughter's disappearance.
"Misty...Misty is missing...and...uh...well...we think that...she might have runaway from home. Do any of you know where she might have run off too?..."Mei asked, looking a little desperate for answers.
"And did she by any chance mention something about magic? Because what we thought was her was some kind of illusion..."Laolao explained, gesturing to the object that was used to create said illusion.
Star and the others were silent and were caught off guard for a bit. They soon realized that they knew about the magic too now.
"You know about Misty's powers?..."Jazz asked, surprised.
"You children knew about this too?..."LaoLao asked.
"Duh, it's her and her magic's fault that we nearly got killed twice!..."Star exclaimed.
"WHAT?!..."Mei exclaimed in shock.
"Star! They didn't need to know about that stuff. We have other priorities right now!..."Jazz tried, but her brother's girlfriend snapped again.
"No! I'm not covering for that stupid little witch! Not after everything that she's put us through since we've met, especially today!..."Star said, showing how mad she is.
"Sta-..."Sam tried, but the blonde girl was still furious.
"Shut up! It's because of her I nearly became the bride to an insane jiangshi that also tried to kill us and it's because of her that Colette got powers and tried to hold my boyfriend against his will and threatened his and his family's life for a date! It's not my fault that she's into dark magic and voodoo and cooking up spell in a witch's caldron! If she gets sent to juvie or something, that's her fault!..."Star snapped.
Laolao and Mei seemed horrified and shocked to find out what Misty had been up to lately this pass few months. This puts all of her trips to the library for extra studying into question.
"MY DAUGHTER HAS DONE WHAT?!..."Mei exclaimed, jaw dropping.
Star nodded.
"Yeah, she has..."Star said, arms crossed.
"So... that's what she's been doing?..." Laolao asked, not sure what to say.
"Oh..and it gets better..."Star said sarcastically.
"You're witchy daughter kidnapped my boyfriend and we've been looking for them!..."Star said, too emotional right now to see reason.
"Uh...Star..."Tucker said, but the damage was done.
"W-What?..."Mei asked, speechless.
"Too late..."Tucker said.
Once Star calmed down, she soon realized what she revealed out of spite and hesitated.
"I...said too much...didn't I?..."Star asked her friends, who set her a flat look.
"Ya think?..."Sam asked, shaking her head but the damage was already done.
"My...my daughter...did that..."Mei said, now shocked silent.
While she was still processing all of this, Laolao knew that her granddaughter wouldn't do any of this horrific things without being used by someone else with bad intentions to match those actions. After all, Laolao knew her granddaughter has a good and pure heart. However, what she heard didn't sound like her.
"There...there has to be a mistake. I know that Misty can get reckless but...she'd never do anything cruel like that..."Laolao said.
"Well, she did. And we're trying to find her to save my boyfriend from whatever spell she has cooked up this time. Lousy witch..."Star spat the last part hatefully.
Realizing that Star meant those words, the old woman tried to plea for her grandchild's innocence.
"Please...I know that you might have negative feelings but my Misty isn't a bad girl. She's simply at a critical point in her life where she's trying to find a sense of self purpose that might change her outlook on her life for the better. But I fear that she might be under the influence of something truly malevolent that's drifting her towards the wrong path. She just needs to be reminded about who loves her...and someone to help her come to her senses..."Laolao said, trying to defend her granddaughter's innocence.
The teens were a bit confused with the second half of what Misty's grandmother told them. Until Mei stepped in to better explain what they were doing out here.
"Please...if you have any idea where she is...tell us. I'm her mother and I'm very worried. I just want to know what's going on with her daughter and save her from whatever this is. Please..."Mei said, looking worried.
Star and the others silently stare at one another and sighed.
"Fine...come with us..."Star said, as she lead them to an empty alley.
"And the reason you brought us to this alley?..."Mei asked, now impatient.
"Just shut up and let us do this..."Star said, in no mood for any of her attitude.
They were now in front of the Spector speeder and Jazz pressed the button, making the vehicle visible and shocked Misty's mother and grandmother.
"What in the world is that thing?!..."Mei asked, not expecting to see something like that before.
"It's a specter speeder, Danny's parents made it. They also made this..."Star said as she held out a boo-merang.
The adults were confused as they stepped in the floating spacecraft looking vehicle. While the more responsible looking teen explained what it was and does.
"It's a tracking device. We can track Misty and Danny with it..."Jazz explained, confusing the two adults even more now.
"We can?..."Mei asked, looking hopeful now.
Before either of the older women could ask any more questions. Star didn't want to waste any more time and activated the Australian looking tracking device.
"Boomerang...find Danny and Misty. Now..."Star ordered, as she hurled it into the air.
The device soon activated and immediately twirled through the air like it had rocket boosters installed.
"Tucker, punch it..."Sam said, while he was in the driver's seat.
"On it! Hang tight, everyone!..."Tucker said, as he activated the vehicle.
All of a sudden, Misty's family seemed unsure about entering an unknown vehicle with a group teenagers and having said teenagers take them to an unknown place without any solid proof that Misty will be there.
While Laolao was somewhat trusting of these teens taking her and her daughter to where her granddaughter is, Mei was currently regretting stepping foot in this crazy looking flying car thing.
"W-Wait...shouldn't we-..."Mei was cut off as the spector speeder took off and raced as fast as a fighter jet.
"ARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!..."Mei and Laolao both shrieked and clung to each other as the vehicle soon took off, immediately buckling all the seat belts in their respective seats.
One thing was certain between these two parties, today was going to be a very different kind of adventure for all of them.
Meanwhile
In China
Danny couldn't believe what is happening here.
He was ambushed, knocked out and just woke up in an unknown place...at the clutches of MISTY of all people.
He couldn't believe it!
"Misty?! What? How...I-...!"Danny sputtered, confused and speechless.
But the confusion didn't last long as it was replaced with alertness and wariness. The dark haired sorceress giggled slightly, before she approached him closer.
"Hi, Danny honey. I'm so glad that you came to see my family's homeland with me..."Misty said, with a shy and nervous tone in her voice.
"What the heck are you talking about?! You attacked me and somehow dragged me to...your homeland?! What the heck?!..."Danny shouted.
"Uh...well..I guess technically. Sorry about that, but I needed to get you here..."Misty said, as she tried to reason with the ghost boy.
She also had something in her hands, which her crush noticed immediately.
Danny was shocked to see that Misty was the one who blindsided him and was holding something that he thought that he destroyed. In fact, he was positive that he blasted it to smithereens, but was somehow in her hands again.
The ghost boy couldn't believe his eyes.
"Misty?! You still have the book?! You've been hiding that from everyone?!..."He yelled, confused as to how she still has it after he burned it with his ghost powers.
Misty didn't like his tone, and didn't hesitate to retaliate.
"You're one to talk about hiding secrets, Mr. Danny Phantom!..." She said, startling him.
"W-What...what are you talking about?! Me?! Danny Phantom...pfft...funny..."Danny laughed nervously, but she sent him a flat look.
"Don't even bother with lying to me. I saw you morph!..."She said.
"You saw that?..."Danny asked, realizing he was caught.
Misty nodded.
"Yes, I did. But don't worry... I forgive you..."She said, sounding strange as she remained speaking with a very calm and relaxed tone.
Danny had just noticed she went from angered to sweet almost instantly. To an almost unnatural degree and it was kinda unnerving him.
"Uh... you okay?..."He asked as he scanned his surroundings for an exit.
The dark haired girl kept smiling at him.
"Couldn't be better...now that we're together..."Misty said as she hugged him.
She cuddled up his noticeably slim yet tone chest, which made the ghost boy feel uncomfortable right now.
"What do you mean 'together'? And can you not touch me?..."Danny asked, as he confused on what she was talking about.
Misty didn't pull away, but just kept smiling.
"It's fated that we're meant to be... because I love you..."She said, unnerving the ghost boy even more now.
"Misty, we've been over this. I love Star!..."He said.
Saying that made Misty's expression go from lovesick to FURIOUS in a nano-second.
"NO! It's me you're supposed to love! It's destiny!..." Misty cried angrily.
"Misty..." Danny said, worried for her sanity right now.
The young sorceress noticed his expression, and tried to calm down.
"Oh... I'm so sorry... here..."The girl said, still smiling unusually.
Reading her book, Misty make some hand signs.
"Let's kiss and make up..."She said in a playful way.
"What are you-..."The dark haired boy was about to ask, until he felt some unseen force surrounded him.
"WHAT THE?!..."He exclaimed.
Before Danny could question anything, he felt himself pushed towards her by invisible forces. Before he could voice his confusion and displeasure, Misty wrapped her arms around him and covered his mouth with her own.
"Mmm!~..."Misty let out, sounding happy.
Danny would have made muffled sounds of rejection but his arms then suddenly move against his will, hugging.
The kiss deepened, Misty's tongue touching his right now.
"What the heck?! So wrong! Just think of Star! Just think of Star!..."Danny thought in distress, before she pulled away for some air.
She smiled, looking satisfied while Danny looked angry and mortified.
"Misty!..."He shouted, red faced in anger but Misty didn't see that yet.
"You have no idea how happy I am to finally kiss you and have you aware of it! To not stop time the moment that blonde was away from you, so I can show you how much I love you!..."She said in a lovesick way, shocking the ghost boy.
"Wait... what?! What did you just say?!..."He yelled, surprised to hear this.
Misty didn't see his distress, and kept smiling and felt a bit flustered with a cute blush on her face.
"Oh... I use magic to stop time, so I can hug and kiss you ever since that time you were in my house. Still... we're not going to need that anymore..."She said, still acting bashful around him.
The ghost boy was furious and even a little horrified by this information.
"You've been kissing me without my knowledge?! Is that why my mouth kept feeling weird at random times?!..."He yelled, feeling angry and indignant.
Misty didn't seem to notice his outrage, and kept smiling in a calm yet eerie manner.
"Don't worry... all you need to know is that our future is guaranteed, especially our future children too..."Misty said, as she continued to stare lovingly into his eyes.
"Future? Children?! WHAT?!..."Danny asked, feeling immediately lost by what she just said.
"Are you nuts? We're too young for that!..."He shouted, as it finally donned on him of what she meant by their "future children" together.
"It's not like we're not too young to be ready..."Misty said, looking absolutely giddy.
The half ghost hero had to keep his wits on high alert, since he wasn't sure what he'd be up against Misty. Especially with her not acting like herself and not answering some of his questions. Especially with the spell book still working.
"I don't know what makes you think we're having a kid, but you need to take me home like yesterday..."Danny said, but Misty didn't seem to be listening.
It was like she was possessed, her eyes were flashing green as she smiled in an unnerving manner.
"All you need to know is that we're going to be together..." Misty said, before kissing him again.
"MM!..." He went before she pulled away.
"And I'm not letting you go ever again..." She said lovingly, yet with a hint of possessiveness, as she hugged him.
Danny realized that he was in a a whole new level of danger, and gulped.
"Not good..."He thought, wondering how he can get himself out of this, or prolong whatever was about to happen long enough until help arrives.
"Oh, we're going to be so happy together!..." She said, as she lightly danced while holding him.
Danny, however, wasn't having it. He refused to play along.
"Since you know who I am now... no point in hiding this..." Danny said, as he phased out of her grip and changed forms.
He continued to float due to Misty's magic still in effect.
"Danny?..." Misty asks, looking hurt while the ghost boy glared at her.
"Misty. Look, I'm sorry... maybe we can be friends... maybe...after some time...a lot of time...at least until I can forget about the "magic kisses"... but I don't love you or have any romantic interest in you..."Danny said, being frank with her.
He tried to reason with her, hoping to get her to snap out of whatever this is.
"I'm sorry, but I can't see myself in a relationship, much less having a kid, with you. Especially with how you're acting right now. Now... take me home... right now. I promise that I will not destroy your book again and leave you alone...and not call the cops... if you agree to leave me and the people I care for alone. Especially Star. Okay?..."Danny offered diplomatically, hoping that she could be reasoned with.
"Don't listen to him!..." The book said, rising up.
"What?! You can talk?!..." Danny asked, surprised.
It was then that a spirit appeared from the pages of the book. It was a green silhouette of a man of Asian ancestry and wearing what looked like old fashioned robes, which also had the symbol of the Yang clan on it.
"Not the point right now..."The spirit said, before turning to Misty.
"Do it..." He ordered, but Misty seemed unsure.
"But... won't it hurt him?..."She asked, looking worried.
"He'll be unconscious, now do it. Before he gets away!..."He ordered her.
Misty sighed bitterly as she whispered her incantation to herself.
"What are y-..." Danny was cut off when Misty put her hands to make the spell.
"Sorry, my love... I just need you to be unconscious for now. You'll understand later..."She said in a sweet and apologetic way.
Before Danny could get away, he was hit by the spell and soon went to the ground, on the brink of losing consciousness.
"W-what?...M-Misty..."Danny let out in a weak voice, as the darkness slowly began to cloud his vision.
"Sorry again, Danny. I hope this will make up for it..."Misty said in a sweet tone, as she got closer to him.
She kissed him and, to Danny's shock, everything went dark.
Whatever was happening right now, Danny understood one thing with absolute certainty...he was currently in a much more dangerous situation than he thought he was in.
The ghost boy could only hope that Star and his friends will somehow find him ASAP.
15 minutes later
Danny stirred awake, opening his eyes.
He tried to get up, only to see his wrists were strapped to the chair he was sitting on. He struggled to get out, but realizes their magic kept him from leaving.
"Is it weird that I'm getting numb to situations like this?..." He asked himself, frowning.
"You won't have to be for long, my love. Just need to wait a little bit longer. Can't have you using your powers to get away again..." He heard Misty say.
Turning his head, he saw Misty in the sorceress dress, eyes glowing bright green and smiling happily with the spirit beside her.
"Misty? Look... I get you're upset about me hiding my powers and all... but I-..."
"It's alright, Danny. This only further proves how we're meant to be..." Misty gushed.
"Uh... what?..." Danny asked, while she got closer and invaded his personal space again.
"I have magic, you have ghost powers...with our unique genetic DNA and special abilities combined, our son's going to be amazing!..."Misty said in a creepy lovesick way.
Hearing this startled the ghost boy, mainly since he wasn't yet ready for that.
"Son? What are you talking about? We're 15, we don't have kids, much less a kid!..."He yelled, convinced that she really has lost her mind.
"Not yet..." Misty said warmly as she came forward, and she placed her hands on his face and planted a quick kiss on his lips.
"But that's going to change..."She said, creeping him out even more.
"Stop that!..."Danny yelled, wishing he could wipe his mouth right now.
With that, Misty got up and was praised by her spell book.
"You've done well... now, bring what we need..." He said.
Misty nodded and obeyed, hurrying along. With her gone, the spirit turned his head to Danny.
"And... you are?..." Danny asked.
"One of the founding members of the Yang Clan and the first to use magic. You've met my decedent Shi, no doubt. The one you thankfully erased from existence, which I am grateful for. Since he was a disgraceful stain on the Yang Clan's honorable name..." He said in a smug sounding way.
"I have..." Danny said, rolling his eyes away.
"Well... you needn't worry... I shall not harm you..."The spirit said.
"Why? Who are you and why are you doing this?..."Danny demanded.
"Like I said, I am one of the original magic users of the Yang clan. My name was Wufong and I was one founding members of the great Yang Clan that once ruled over our region of China and were given blessings to weld magic. Magic that made our lives better..The spirit said, gloating about how great he and his clan used to be in the past.
Until he frowned all of a sudden.
"Until changes happened that made my descendants lose their way but it all ends tonight and soon we will regain what we have once lost..."He said, in a villainous sounding way.
Unfortunately, the ghost boy wasn't in the mood to listen to another villainous monologue and decided to cut the spirit off by asking a question.
"How did you find out about my powers? You knew before Misty did, didn't you?..."Danny demanded, getting a gut feeling now.
"Guilty...as for your question...it was quite simple. The moment you touched the book, I sensed your unique powers. I know not how you acquired these powers, but I do know you are useful to the Yang clan's return to prosperity..."He said in an ominous sounding way.
"Why do I not like where this is going?..." Danny asked.
"Well, you will learn to like it since you don't have a choice..."The spirit said.
"That's what every bad guy tells me, but I always stop them in their tracks one way or another. You'll be no different from them. Wufong, you're about to be Wu-gone!..."Danny said, glaring at him.
"Witty..."Wufong said sarcastically.
"In response to what you just said, I am nothing like any of those pedestrian ghosts, ghouls or spirits that you've faced before. Unlike my not so great descendant, I am truly special and powerful...or at least I will be again soon..."Wufong said, smirking.
"Misty is also going to be playing an important role...once she is ready for the spell and ceremony..."He added.
"Spell? Ceremony? What?..."Danny exclaimed.
"Since you will be playing an active part, I suppose I can tell you...since you two are going to cherish it for the rest of your lives..."Wufong said, rubbing his hands in anticipation.
"Why would we, and be "we" I mean "I", cherish what you're about to do?..."Danny asked, hating this.
"The spell she believes she's doing is a spell to free you from the love spell your girlfriend has you under..."The spirit said, confusing the ghost boy even more.
"What the heck are you talking about? I'm not under any spell, I love Star more than anything! And my feelings are the real deal, I even took a test to prove it!..."Danny shouted.
"Perhaps, but as far as Misty is concerned, you are under a spell and this concoction will free you from it. She is wrong... it is a spell that will make you obedient. You will do anything for her... even leave everyone for her and father her child, once you two are of age. I've waited ages... I can wait a little while longer..."He said, sounding like the last part will be a breeze.
"For what?..." Danny asked.
"If you must know... I'm going to be reborn... as your son..." He revealed in a calm and factual manner.
"Uh... what?..."Danny asked, wondering if he heard that right.
"Did I stutter? I'm going to transfer my essence into my descendant once it is time, taking up a spot where the child's soul would go, and become reborn..."He said, a bit annoyed that he has to repeat to another teenager of this era.
"I have waited centuries to find the perfect host...I have tried to guide each of my descendants in hopes of making them strong enough into creating the perfect host for me, but they either did not meet my standards or are too soft hearted to be my hosts or be be influenced by my magic...but I finally found the right one to meet my minimum standards and create the ideal body thanks to the loyalty in Misty. She believes everything I say and hold enough resentment for me to manipulate in ways that benefit the Yang clan. I even had created the false visions of your friends badmouthing her and you two raising a child but they were all I needed to get her on my side..."Wufong said, sounding proud of himself.
"You did what?! And... you want US to have a baby so you can take the kid's soul's place?! And you actually think I'll be fine with it?!..." Danny asked, looking ready to throttle him right now.
"Given how youths in your era are, ending up with such a lovely young lady should be a fine fate..."Wufong said, chuckling evilly.
Hearing this just makes Danny despise this evil spirit for using Misty like tool for him to dispose of when he has no more use for her anymore. Which only made him feel more concerned over Misty's well-being even more and convince him that she was being used.
However, the evil spirit continued.
"Well, you'll have to find someone else because I'm not doing that! Not even with someone I actually love!..."Danny yelled.
"You don't really have a choice here. You and Misty will be so obedient... neither of you will mind. With the magic of the Yang clan, and the power of Danny Phantom, I will be unstoppable... I will finally achieve my goal and bend this world to my whim as I was always destined to!..."He said, revealing his true colors and insane agenda.
Danny's eyes glowed green in anger as he struggled to break free. He settled for yelling for now.
"You can't do that! I don't love Misty! I love Star and you can't force me to be with her! It's so many levels of wrong and you're entire plan is insane from start to finish!..."Danny shouted, wondering how anyone could go to such insane levels of desiring someone for shallow reasoning.
Or how someone could live being in such a life, being placed a spell and forced to be with someone you don't truly love.
Meanwhile
In Paris
In a fancy looking restaurant with a long, difficult to pronounce name, people were eating here and enjoying their time.
However, one couple was enjoying their time in ANOTHER way.
In a broom closet far away from the tables and staff, some muffled noises and gasps could be heard coming from the inside.
Several minutes later, a couple stepped out.
It was a satisfied looking Alicia, who's dressed was wrinkled an askew and her hair was messed up, but she had a blush and a big grin on her face. The person who stepped out was her husband Vlad, who was wearing his disguise and fixing his own clothes, and zipped up his pants.
It was clear what they were doing in their, but Vlad didn't want to talk about it.
Alicia just giggled and sent him a loving look.
"Guess we can cross canoodling in a place like this off our bucket list..."Alicia said with a giggle.
"I...guess we can..."Vlad said, as he fixed his hair and clothes before anyone saw them.
On the outside, he seemed happy but on the inside he was mortified.
They had come here for lunch but as they waited for their courses to arrive, Alicia began playing footsie with him, then one thing lead to another and she dragged him to that closet when no one was looking and proceeded to make out and do things that could never be said in a PG setting.
"I can't believe she made me do that...and in a public place where anyone could have spotted us! So humiliating!..."Vlad thought, as his wife smiled at him.
He smiled back, but on the inside he was glaring at her.
"You disgusting...perverted...revolting...alluring and energetic vixen..."Vlad thought, before panicking.
"NOT AGAIN! Bad thoughts, go away!..."He thought, while his wife sent him a wolfish look.
"Come on, Lamp-chop..our orders could arrive by now..."Alicia said.
"Right...we should go there before the waiters wonder where we went..."Vlad said.
"Even though you're yummier than any dish here..."Alicia said, as she playfully pinched a part of him that shouldn't be touched in public.
"Alicia, behave!..."Vlad said, holding his backside, while she giggled.
"Sorry, but you're irresistible..."Alicia said, with a giggle.
"Curse my good looks..."Vlad said, as they went back to the table and his punishment continued.
Back with Danny
The ghost boy was still glaring at the Spirit of Wufong, who continued to look down on him, smugly.
Danny was furious, but something came to his mind. Something he couldn't help but ask about.
"Before I figure a way out of this and kick you're butt...Why do you want to be human again? The ghosts I've met don't seem to mind their status..."Danny pointed out.
"The ghosts you met weren't gods among men in their day. The Yang clan were known, respected and feared... until our prosperity was breached by outsiders who married into the family and convinced my descendants to turn against me..."Wufong said, sounding angry now.
"They swore to stop using magic out of fear they were too dangerous and thought they destroyed me. My last chance was to seal my spirit in the book prior to my body's destruction. I enchanted it so that only magic can destroy it. But, to answer your question, most of my magic involves breathing, blood, and a union of body and spirit... things that a ghost does not possess. As a ghost, I am powerful... but as a human with magic, I am more powerful. And with your powers and Misty's magic flowing through me once I obtain my new body... I will be unstoppable!..."He said in a megalomaniac way, angering the Phantom boy even more now.
"I'll stop you!..."Danny shouted, not willing to stand by and let some crazy spirit sacrifice his future child, regardless of who his future child's mother may be.
"Stop me? You're going to father my new body soon enough. In about 3-4 years, you'll be referring to me as son. True...a part of me is somewhat annoyed that my new form will be half-Chinese and half whatever you are...but after all my waiting, I suppose that I should compromise a bit at this point.."The spirit said mockingly, confident that his plan will proceed flawlessly.
Danny was getting increasingly worried now.
He wasn't sure how he was going to stop this spirit's crazy plan, but he knew that Star and his friends must have noticed his absence by now and are searching for him right now.
"That's crazier than Vlad!..."He thought, hoping that they can find him before anything happens.
However, Wufong wasn't done and now scratched his chin in thought as he began to second-guess willingness to remain patient for his goal to be realized.
"Granted, I may grow impatient and not wait until you are both of legal age. I may just have you act as irresponsible teenagers and form my new body soon. I doubt Misty will mind. She's so wrapped up in love, or lust and obsession to be more precise, that she'd be willing to carry as many children of yours as she can before she's unable to. It all works for me either way..."He said with a nonchalant shrug, as he was currently unsure of what to do with his two new tools
Danny looked disgusted and offended by the level of depravity Wufong is willing to go for his experiment in eugenics to create the perfect vessel.
He desired nothing more than to vaporize this ghoulish spirit from existence right here and now.
"There is no way that is ever gonna happen and as crazy as Misty is, she's not that nuts enough to go along with any of this!..."Danny said, before pausing.
"Is she?..."He asked, sounding nervous right now.
Even after everything Misty had put him, Star and his friends through from the time they've met, Danny didn't truly believe that she was truly a bad person. Misty was simply someone who puts her trust on the wrong person and get taken advantage of.
The ghost boy knew that his friends might disagree with him, but he knew that she needed saving from not just this crazy book spirit, but also from her own insecurities. It was the right thing to do, even if the others wouldn't agree.
"Ah, you're thinking better of her than she herself does? How surprisingly noble of you. Perhaps there is some interest in her that will make things easier for me. If not...well, it matters not, you cannot stop me..."The spirit smugly commented.
"If you knew anything about me before Misty found that book, you'd know I don't give up. I'll show Misty that this is wrong! If she does love me, she'll listen to me and not you!..."Danny shouted back at the book with plenty of resistance to spare
The spirit, however, kept smirking and looking victorious as he described his plan to Danny.
"Perhaps...but Misty and I have a..."special" connection now...ever since I helped her achieve her new level of power. I can assure you that she'll listen to me first..."Wufong said, with a dark smirk on his face.
"What did you do to her?!..."Danny demanded, knowing this creep must be behind Misty's crazy behavior lately.
"Let's just say my future mother is under much more agreeable influence, too much for one to disagree with me. Thanks to some very persuasive motivational discussions from myself and...other things...she is much more agreeable indeed..."The enemy said in a dark way, all while his eyes glowed dark green.
"I'll find a way to stop you!..."Danny shouted, still struggling.
"Huff and puff all you want, it won't change the fact that after the ceremony is done and the spell is in place...you will belong to Misty...and you both will belong to me...Bàba...or as you Westerners say...Dad..."Wufong said in a sinister, mocking way.
The spirit laughed before returning to the book, leaving Danny to try and struggle free.
"This stinks!..."Danny cursed, hating this.
The ghost boy need to find someway out of this and snap Misty back to her senses.
"I need to get to Misty, she might be the best chance I have to stop this..."He said, struggling to get out still.
The ghost boy was currently gambling nearly everything on just how much Misty might actually love him and hopefully reach out towards her and get her to regain her senses. All while his backup plan was happening, Star and friends were already on a search and rescue mission for Danny.
Meanwhile
Misty was getting what she needed for the ceremony that would change their lives forever.
"Just a couple more finishing touches and my happily ever after will be just one spell away..."She said, as she gathered her ingredients and prepared for everything.
She giggled uncontrollably, feeling excited.
"Here comes the bride, love by her side!~..."She said in a sing-song voice, thinking it was finally happening.
Soon... Danny's fate would be hers, something she thinks that she wanted.
One thing is still certain, tonight will be like no other before it.
