Danny Fenton: Season of Growth
(Author's Notes: Hey everyone! How are you all doing? I hope that all of you are doing well despite what is going on in the world.
Before I say or do anything, I wish to give honor and glory to the Lord. God, thank you once again for helping me with my works. But most important of all Jesus, thank you for helping me in my life. There have been some serious ups and downs for me like a roller coaster ride, and also seeing the messed-up news that seems to be never-ending. But you have guided me, comforted me & also strengthened me to be more enduring! And also you have helped my family and my friends all over the world, and for that I thank you. I shall continue to do my best for you Jesus, both in my writings and in my actions & thoughts! Not easy, especially with how things are now in this current society and culture, but will do my best to not be absorbed by it!
Hey everyone, I got something important to say. I learned from a very good friend of mine on the situation concerning the Danny Phantom graphic novel series… and what I learned both broke of our hearts very much. It seems that certain groups have gotten their way with the series, and sadly even the American voice of Danny Fenton/Phantom- David Kaufan approved of the change in the character he voiced.
So after some deliberation and conversation with my friend, we have both decided on this. Just like how I am done with Disney & certain other media groups that have sadly decided to follow the wrong route with many characters, I am done with Danny Phantom. The series and such no longer hold my interest any longer. The cartoon series that came before the graphic novel, it is debatable at best. But the graphic novel and anything that follows after it… nope.
I will stick to the Danny Phantom that I have created, including the other characters. I am now bound and determined to showcase the real characters as they should have been shown, not the cannon ones that sadly had much potential and promise, but were not realized due to the writers and producers of the series. If anyone has a problem with it, than that's fine. I will accept both the positive and negative reviews/comments that come forth, but I WILL endure and not stop until this series is complete, which will be in FOUR books now like my Disney/Toho Monsters and Magic series!
This series will take much time to finish due to my other projects I must complete, but it will be well worth it. This I believe in! I have been coordinating and receiving help from those I do call true and real friends, and I will make sure they are recognized and honored here like so!
I will do what I can so that any and all characters are shown real and right, and also to promote real growth and development for them. For the minor and major characters, the plot, the storyline and more! And to Guest in the review he or she put in, it is this. I did look for Alex's last name, and what I found most was that it was Casoy. I did not of her father at all, as he is not mentioned where I looked at. While I do thank you for the info, her last name in this story will remain as is. I do my best to look information for characters, though it seems I need to improve myself.
I will also continue to pray and hope that the countries all over the world, especially the U.S., are freed from this New Normal/WOKE movement that is truly killing the people and more. And that people leave certain groups/communities before it is too late for them.
I will continue to hope and pray the best for the country I live in. I will continue to hope and pray that the people remember the many fine lines that used to be visible in the past. The small, subtle differences that are quite significant & make the entire difference between what is right & wrong. And that certain barriers/boundaries/limits were set up in the first place for a very good reason.
No slash/femme-slash actions or pairings. There will also be no trans, gender-free, binary/non-binary, gender-neutral characters or notions in this series, nor in any of my other stories. This I am DEADLY serious about! See my Profile here to see & know exactly where I stand.
To see fanart of the series here, check out the DeviantArt account of Dreams that is known as MarieAngel04. Her works are incredible, and deserve much recognition!
I wish to do this for my Tia Pamela Espurova-Allen, and will keep doing it until some solid news comes in. She is working with police and other official groups to locate and bring home a missing girl that is part of a family she works with & has befriended.
Her name is Lina Khil, a little girl that was taken on December 20th, 2021. The search is still on for her, but so far… no luck.
Her information is this: She was four years old when she was abducted; hair brown, eyes brown, race Afghan, weight 55 lbs. & height 4'0. If any can help to locate and find her, please do so and notify the proper authorities. Hoping and praying still that she is found alive & returned to her family. They have put up a special about her on TV thanks to the San Antonio Police Department. Any information you wish to seek about her you can search for online, and hopefully it will help to find her and bring her back home safely.

In the words of Winston Churchill- You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life. I will not kowtow or submit myself to others who feel offended at such in what I believe in, and make a big fuss or drama over it that causes unnecessary/unwanted trouble because of them being oversensitive and such.
I cannot please everyone, nor do I ever want to. In the words of my pastor Rick Godwin from my church Summit Christian Center at San Antonio, it is this- Those who seek to please everyone lose only themselves, who they are and displease their own beings. Okay, not an exact quote since my memory is not the best but you get the idea I hope.
I am making stories for people to enjoy them, not to please every single being. I have my own ideas, standards, thoughts, theories and so on. If people do not like my stories, it is okay. I cannot please all, and will not lower or compromise myself to please all either. Goes the same in real life too.
Any OC names that appear on here, I got from the website known as 20000-NAMES, which show various boy and girl names from different nations and ethnicities. Each name has a meaning, if you wish to see what it. Also, the Destroian Empire and the Destroian OC's belong to LORD DESTYRUK. Certain family members of theirs are from my fourth Disney/Toho novel Monsters and Magic Special: Sofia's Imagination.
When Danny and the ladies arrive, it is at the very early stages of the Piccolo Jr. Saga, at the exact moment when Shen Long was revived and granted the wish of bringing those that were killed by Demon King Piccolo and his minions back to life. And with a three-year gap before the next tournament, it would give Danny and his date's ample time to explore the new reality/world they are in & to collect the Dragon Balls.
Danny Phantom is a cartoon series that was created by Butch Hartman, developed by Steve Marmel. The series aired on April 2004, the network that released it was Nickelodeon. The production companies were Billionford Inc. and Nickelodeon Animation Studios, with the distributors being Viacom International Inc. and Nelvana. Look for my Danny Phantom series and specials when getting the chance, if you please. This takes place after the episode De-Stabilized, but before Phantom Planet. And also, said last episode will NOT be featured here.
DragonBall is a manga/anime series that was written by Akira Toriyama, published by Shueisha Inc. with North America published by Viz Media. The manga was created in December 1984, ending in June 1995 with forty-two volumes. The anime was directed by Minoru Okazaki & Daisuke Nisho, produced by Tokizō Tsuchiya/Kenji Shimizu/Jun'ichi Ishikawa. Studio was Toei Animation, licensed by Funimation Entertainment for North America. Original network that broadcasted it was Fuji TV, with multiple English networks such as Cartoon Network Toonami and Funimation Channel. It ran from February 1986 to April 1989.
If you wish, use your imagination and put in any kind of song/music intro from any anime series with the Intro and Outro here. And also, so no one is confused, this is DragonBall & not DragonBall Z. And also, not going to follow the Dragonball Super anime or manga series in any way. And not going to follow the current, too-many arcs to name that have been cropping up recently.
Different intro and outro will appear in the next book of the series. To see full intro and outro, look to the very first chapter in this story.
Now, on with the chapter!)
{{Intro, look to very first chapter for it}}
Secrets Unleashed
It was now 8:15 a.m., everyone was situated in the Living Room of the former Red Ribbon main manor. After the wonderful breakfast they was served, all went back into the area so that things could be all squared away, Danny still in his Phantom-form. Standing before the group was the new comers, Yume and Inukami. The blue-haired beauty known as Launch smiled and said in a polite tone, "Okay now! Since breakfast is over, I believe it's time for some proper introductions to start. So Tenshi-san, can you please tell us more about yourself?".
The others were now giving the young woman their full attention. Yume straightened herself up as best she could before doing a bow of greeting to them, rising up after a few moments in said bow and speaking in a clear & pleasant tone, "Greetings everyone. My name is Yume Tenshi, though some refer to me by a title that was given to me by my peers as a teacher. It is Pro Bully Hunter as I had a knack for spotting the really bullies from the victims, and doing what I could to straighten out said bully & not giving in to others who tried to protect them.".
This did impress the others, some mildly while others moderately. Especially Danny and certain girls that had been bullied in the past, and sadly said bullies got away with it due to their connections that protected them. They wondered what life had been like if someone like Yume had been in their area back in their universe.
Yume continued onward, "I discovered magic at a young age, going to various magical schools until I managed to graduate with top honors at Ronald's Sorcerer University.".
Now THIS bit of information surprised the inter-universal travelers, and the surprised/shock showed on their faces. Kitty exclaimed with a tone that mirrored her surprised emotions, "Wait! A magical school!? A school that teaches real magic?!". She was a student at a place that catered & taught mutants like her, but it was the only one that was public & even then it was treaded on lightly. But hearing that there were school for magic really blew her mind.
The young sorceress smiled at Miss Pryde and explained in her school-lecture tone, "Indeed young lady. While it is uncommon for some to be able to utilize magic in its various forms, which include making potions and such, it is not as rare as one would think. There are magical communities & schools that are public knowledge, and it's for the benefit of both magical & mundane, those who cannot use magic, that both interact with one another.".
Gwen Tennyson inquired in a curious tone, "But wait, doesn't that cause problems for anyone to learn about the existence of magic?". She had been told by her family to keep her knowledge of magic a secret, that exposure would lead to many either shunning her or to try and manipulate her for their own gains. The ones that were part of the group also were told in some ways, shape and form to keep magic a secret.
Miss Tenshi answered her, "Not at all. While many are skeptical, a good majority of the world have accepted that the magical and mystical side. I take it that it is not so in your realm?".
Many of the ladies shook their heads at this, Diana speaking up, "Not really. Sad to say, many who see things that go beyond the normal don't take it too well.". She wanted to speak up on the organization that she was part of, but believed that now was not that time.
Master Roshi stated, "Oh, that's a shame. I mean, I have a seen my fair share of the strange and it wasn't too bad. Surprising, starling yes but not that bad. I mean, Goku brought a mermaid to me some time ago and it was pleasant to see her.". He decided in his infinite wisdom to not tell the others on what happened, which was the mermaid giving him a hard slap to the face after he asked to see breasts & diving back into the ocean.
Danny inquired in a tone that had some skepticism in his tone, "Wait! Goku brought you a mermaid? For real?".
The martial arts master of the Turtle-style nodded his head and explained, "He sure did! Years ago he came to my island after his little adventure with Bulma. I told him that in order to gain my teachings, he would have to bring to me a girl. He went out and got one but… ahem… his taste in women was severely lacking…".
The thoughts on everyone's one was what kind of woman did Goku bring to Master Roshi, their minds running rampant. Some snickered at some mental images in their heads on what Goku had brought to the aged master, while some shivered as their imaginations showed a being that was… quite disturbing.
Master Roshi continued onward, "In any case, I showed him a picture of what kind of girl I wanted. So he went out and came back quick with another woman, but this time it was a mermaid. And boy was she hot! Whoo!". This had Oolong, Krillin and even Yamcha chuckle at this. Though the ladies were giving the elderly man disapproving looks. Cleo though was wondering on what the mermaid looked like, and if she had powers like she had.
Tien decided to contribute as he stated, "Me and Chiaotzu have seen our fair share of mythical beings as well. Our former teacher Master Shen had with him a little baby animal called Inoshikacho, whom he raised. It was a boar with the antlers of a deer and wings of a large butterfly on his back.".
Again a look of surprise came to the group from a different universe. While some of them had seen some unusual animals & beings in their lives, hearing about a boar that had antlers of a deer & butterfly wings on its back took the cake there.
The Turtle Master commented, "Indeed, what they say is true. The little guy was pleasant to have around, but as he grew older… well, he got more aggressive and wild. Soon Shen had no choice but to let him back into the wild.".
Chiaotzu spoke up, "Me and Tien ran into Inoshikacho, and we defeated him. He became docile to us, and that's when we decided to… ummm…". He seemed hesitant to continue on, making everyone curious on why this was so.
The small psychic's three-eyed friend that was more like a brother sighed and answered, "We decided to use Inoshikacho in a little scam.". Seeing their stunned faces, especially Master Roshi's, Tien explained on how they would go from village to village, using the mythical beast to rampage & terrorize the populace. After the damage was done, they would swoop in and 'save' the village by capturing Inoshikacho. Once they had been paid for by the grateful citizens, they would leave & then release Inoshikacho. And the cycle would repeat.
Tien saw the disappointed/angry looks from the group and stated firmly, "Believe me, it's not something me or Chiaotzu are proud of. But in a way, I am grateful to Goku for finally undoing our actions.". It was Chiatozu this time that explained on how they had met with Goku for the first time, and it was he that exposed them. Inoshikacho had made the decision to protect Goku from the villagers, and in the process break away from him and Tien.
What the duo did not know was that Inoshikacho was alive and well. He was taken in by a little girl from the latest village they tried to scam, who gave him the nickname Ino, and aided the villagers by tending the soil so that hopefully a good harvest would follow.
This seemed to be please the ladies and Danny, the group hoping the best for the unusual animal. In fact, the Phantom lad was wondering what would happen if Cujo and Inoshikacho would meet, the positive side of him seeing the pup actually being friends with the beast. Though his visual version of the beast was different from the actual one.
Master Roshi than spoke once more, "And did you all remember on the time I told you about my sister Baba and her fighters? That only proves that the magical/mystical side lives up to the regular side. Some may try to separate themselves from the public view, but that is their choice to make. And it all depends, really.".
Yume added in, "He's right. Like at the school I graduated from called Niewiadomska Sorceress School, it caters to many kind of different beings. I teach there now, and me and the staff have taught a many variety of students that consist of human sorcerers, wizards, witches and sorceress. But also to fairies, pixies, magical girls and men, mermaids & more. The top magical university though is Kearitona Magic University that has a more variety teaching staff and students.".
This was certainly a lot of information to digest for the beings that came from another universe. For some who were avid readers of a certain book series from famous author J.K. Rowling, this certainly blew those schools out of the water.
Launch spoke once more, "That is really wonderful to hear Tenshi-san. But now can you tell us your abilities, occupation, hobbies, likes, dislikes and your dreams please?". It seemed that the polite bombshell of a beauty wanted to be quite thorough with introductions.
Said woman smiled and replied, "Oh yes! How silly of me to get off track like that. Thank you Launch-san! Ahem… well, my abilities are shapeshifting, mind reading though I only use it when it is absolutely necessary, high empathy/emotion sensor, fluent in many languages both mundane and magical/mystical, voice mimicry, acting, an orange belt in kickboxing, teleportation, whistling & having a very effective imaginative thinking."
To the entire group, that was a very impressive set of abilities, especially the mind-reading and shape-shifting one. Penny raised her hand, a little bit of habit due to her schooling, with Yume looking to her and saying that she could speak. The Proud little lady asked, "So Yume, ummm… is that your real form or not? And can you seriously read minds?".
Tenshi-sensei chuckled a little and answered, "Yes dear, this is my natural and real form. But I do have impressive shapeshifting abilities, which was the reason I was hired some years ago to teach at the school Puar and Oolong belonged to. As for the mind-reading, I can do it only when I am a certain distance from someone. My limit is about 25 feet, and the further the target is, the harder it is & for me to focus more & to put power in it. But I do not just dive into a person's mind just like that, and some that have a well-disciplined mind can keep me out.".
Starfire inquired in her cute curious tone, "Does the shapeshifting also affect your eyes as well?". Truth be told, she had never met anyone with different colored eyes. The same could be said about the others in the group, who were curious about Yume's eye color. Different hair color they had seen, but not eyes.
Yume answered her, "Oh no dear. While I can change my eye color, this is my natural and real ones. Heh, I was born with heterochromia- different colored eyes. My right eye is sapphire blue, my left one jade-green. I consider them to be special, part of what makes me… well, me.".
Ginger raised her hand and inquired, "What is voice mimicry, Ms. Yume?". The lovely magical scholar answered that voice mimicry was using her voice to mimic other sounds, such as animal calls and people's voices. And she was considered an expert in the area, not a master… at least not yet.
Danny spoke out this time, "Miss Tenshi! While those are cool talents, I really like that high empathy and emotional sense you have. Now those are real talents.". In a way, to him it was like the Heart Power that belonged to Ma-Ti from one of his favorite shows as a kid which was Captain Planet and the Planenteers.
The others looked at the young man strangely, though Yume seemed to be very pleased to hear that her ability was considered a real talent. Yamcha asked in a curious tone, "Really? You consider high empathy and emotional sense a real talent? Why not the other things she's listed?".
The young halfa looked to him, the others than finally to Yume. He looked directly into her eyes and spoke with calm but strong conviction, "Well, feeling someone's emotions can come in handy in a number of ways. One can feel if someone is really hurt, needs help, is distressed and more. And hopefully with some good coaching and thinking, the person can do what they can to help him or her. And if need be, they can use it to try and find the person if they focus enough. It's similar to Master Roshi is in feeling auras and power levels, but in a different way.".
He finished up, "Having something that can destroy anything or doing something big is easy. But I have started to see that it's the small, subtle things that really make a difference in anything & in anyone.".
The group were surprised by Danny's statement there, the ladies feeling touched that said young man had such potent insights. Danny had learned the hard way on said lesson, realizing some time ago before arriving to this universe that he had truly messed up in many areas during his hero career all thanks to not having empathy when it was needed in certain situations with certain ones that warranted it like Kitty, Desiree, Ember, Dora and then some.
Yume was smiling, a small tear in her left eye before she wiped it away. She thanked Danny for the explanation, and stated that she was glad that someone thought highly of said ability. He smiled back at her, replying that it was no problem.
The teacher continued onward, "Ahem! Okay now, my occupation. While I am a teacher, I am also a collector of various artifacts and items that I deem unusual & special. I also specialize in psychology, though I am still learning. I am also an artist, one of my favorite hobbies is to find anything I can use to create works of art with my own hands. I am also an animal breeder, though I specialize in small animals that are manageable for households and such.".
She did neglect to tell them about her other occupation… which was a world/dimension traveler thanks to her really being the Author Dreams Come True 996! She felt that now was not the time to reveal such a secret, so thus kept it to herself for the time being.
She pushed onward, "My likes is helping people, serving justice for anyone that needs it, listening to old-school music, watching old but good movies and TV shows, doing anything that involves nature and artistry. My dislikes are bullies, Karma Houdins, very base perverts, injustice and not being taken seriously. And my dream is to find a good man who will love and care for me in the life-run, see and treat me like an equal partner, and also loves nature like I do! And my second dream is to really make it on my own in voice acting.".
Again, the group was surprised by Yume's words but this time in a more positive way. Makoto asked the question on what a Karma Houdini was, Felicia answering that it meant a villain who is never punished, or is insufficiently punished, for their evil actions by the end of a story, thus escaping justice and pulling a Houdini- which is disappearing from the way of karma. Danny knew of one who was like that, which was the blonde jock at his homeworld by the name of Dash. And just for a moment considered a certain female to be in that category as well.
Yume than finished with a bow, showing that her official introduction was now over. She rose up, looked to her best friend that was like a sister to her and stated with a small smile on her face, "I believe it's your turn to official introduce yourself, Dez.".
The anthro wolf girl smirked and answered back in a playful tone, "Hhn. If I must, I must.".
Inukami looked to the group and stated in a no-nonsense tone, "Hey everyone, name is Inukami Dezato. I am known also as Gem Mistress, which I will explain later. I was a soldier… but you're REALLY going to have earn my trust to even tell you of that. My abilities are hand-to-hand fighting, climbing over and around any kind of terrain, sewing…".
She glared at the snickers that came from Krillin, Yamcha and Oolong who were trying to now visualize someone as tough-looking at Inukami doing sewing. Their chuckles soon died horrible deaths as they saw the slight dark aura appearing around Dezato-san, not to mention some death glares from some of the other females in the room. The trio wisely shut up, offering a meek apology which seemed to do the trick. For now at least.
Giving a small snort to the three, the former soldier pressed on, "As I was saying, I can also do magic though it's very limited. I can do telekinesis, sensing magical auras in living and non-living beings & awaking certain magical properties in stones. I have excellent survival skills that will has helped in many cases and missions, though I can only cook simple meals like sandwiches, soups and such. I have extensive knowledge and skill in first-aid & watching after young ones, and also have excellent sense of hearing, smell and digging due to my canine side.".
She waited for questions from the others, but they seemed to be satisfied for now. After a few moments, Inukami continued on, "My occupation varies. As stated, I was a soldier. After that, I became a psychologist even though it is mostly basic knowledge. I am also a lapidary, someone who collects stones. I'm also a tailor, teaching of controlling one's own emotions and energy, and finally a yoga & meditation instructor.".
This had the group very much interested in the varied abilities and occupation of Inukami. Jenny inquired, "Is that why you are called a Gem Mistress, because of the stones you collect?".
Inukami smiled a little and answered, "You are correct, but it's more than just that. With my magic, I can awaken certain properties within stones. And when I sew the stones with the properties on my clothes, it actually grants me some benefits that come in handy. It certain did during my last mission…". At the last part, there was a heaviness to her words. It seemed that the anthro wolf woman had gone through some tough trials… but how tough, it was anyone's guess.
Master Roshi asked, "Excuse me Dezato-san, but do you think you and I can talk later on?".
Inukami looked a little warily at the ancient martial arts master and replied, "Only if my friend Yume is there. Why?". Despite his goofy looks and such, the anthro wolf was always a cautious one and did not want to be alone with someone who was as lecherous as Master Roshi. But in the future, she would come to know that despite his weakness for the ladies like so, that he was truly an OK fellow.
The Turtle Master answered, "Of course. And if my hunch is correct, I believe your magical stone ability and your sewing skills is what we need now.". This of course had everyone perplexed, and if it was a cartoon/animated series, one could see a large red question mark floating above them all to indicate said confusion.
The anthro wolf woman just simply nodded her head at him, than finished up her introductions by speaking, "Oh yes. And finally my likes and dislikes. I like warm places especially saunas and bath houses, keeping fit physically and mentally such as meditation, sewing, all kinds of stones, well-prepared good food and desserts, mountain-climbing and also my best friend/sister Yume. My dislikes are cold environments, chocolate as those are the kinds of sweets I can't stand, arrogant people who like to stereotype & generalize unfairly, wearing dresses and those who hurt the weak & defenseless.".
When she finished, Nebula went up to the wolf woman, Inukami standing firm though she was a bit curious on what the little girl was doing. Said dragon baby looked into Inukami's eyes for a few moments… then licked her face, nuzzling her with a little crooning sound! She then went to Yume, doing the same as the sorceress giggled from the lick. Danny had a small smile on his face and said with mirth in his voice, "Heh, it seems that Nebula likes you two. So far, she's shown a good judge of character. And if she trusts you, than so do I.".
One by the one, the others also spoke that they trusted the newcomers though Vicky was still quite reserved. The redhead saw Inukami as her natural enemy due to her tendencies and actions from the past.
Once it was established that the newcomers to the group could be trusted like so, Master Roshi spoke, "Alrighty then! Now that we got things squared away, I believe that I still need to discuss somethings with Yume-sensei and Inukami-san. So…".
Before he could speak any further, he was interrupted by Kara who called out, "Hold on there Master Roshi!". All now looked to her, the disguised alien girl seeing the looks but taking a deep breath to steady herself.
Kara wished that her cousin Clark was there with her, to give her the strength needed to do what she was going to do. But he wasn't… but when her eyes looked to Danny, she remembered now he revealed himself to all of them to protect them from Vicky's little rampage with the mecha robot. And how he revealed himself to the others just now like so.
Her conscience whispered to her with strength & resolve that even surprised her, 'If Danny can do it, than so can you! Now go on girl! And do not be afraid!'.
She walked a little from the group, going between them & the newcomers. Kara sighed and stated for all to hear, "I believe it's time to reveal myself to everyone, so…". She took off her brown wig, revealing to all the light blonde hair that was underneath it that spilled until it stopped just a little bit past her shoulders. And she took off her glasses as well. She than floated about four feet off the ground, surprising all except for Barbara and Starfire.
The alien girl stated softly, "I'm an alien like Starfire, an Argonian to be more precise. And my real name is Kara Zor-El, and my superheroine name is Supergirl.". This got a round of gasps from the ones that came from the other universe, but the DB characters just showed confusion.
Cree exclaimed, "Whoa, whoa! You're Supergirl, the one related to Superman?!". Kara nodded her head but also frowned as she did hate being compared to her cousin like so. Sure, Superman/Clark Kent had made a name for himself for some time before she arrived. But it was becoming annoying to always be compared to the legendary Man of Steel like so.
She answered the African-American girl, "Yes I am. He is my cousin, and I'm actually older than him but I'm like this due to him finding me in a cryo-capsule.". She started to explain her origins; on how Superman found the remains of Krypton's sister planet Argo, finding her in a capsule that was similar to Sapphire Jewel's capsule, and how she was brought to Earth and given an Earth identity. She made sure to carefully leave out some things, like Superman's identity and such. She also stated that according to the capsule's info, she was sixteen years older than Superman chronologically.
Puar asked a reasonable question, "So if you're an alien, does that mean you have powers like Starfire?".
Kara answered the floating female cat, "I do, but the powers I have come from the yellow star a.k.a. the Sun. Me and Superman get our strength and abilities from it. We both can fly, have super strength, super endurance, very enhanced senses, various eyesights like X-ray, heat vision and more.".
Oolong whistled and stated in an impressed tone, "Wow! Now that is something there! Are you and this Superman invincible, or do you two have weaknesses?". This made Supergirl wince a little. While she was keen on stating her strengths and abilities, she was not so ready to reveal what made her weak. Some would call it paranoia, but she did not trust the group… at least not at a level where she could share her vulnerabilities with them.
After some moments, Master Roshi spoke in a stern tone, "If you don't wish to talk about it, that's fine. I do hope though that you can share with us what makes you vulnerable when we have earned enough of your trust in the future.". It seemed that despite being goofy and such, Master Roshi was empathetic to some degree and saw the reason why Kara was so adamant on how sharing her weaknesses.
And like he said now, he hoped that the people in the room would earn her trust enough to learn of said weaknesses. But not in a negative way, but as a friend would who would trust the other with everything like so. Kara sent a small smile to the martial artist, thanking him silently for intervening like so.
Danny asked, "So… do we call you Kara, your real name or Supergirl?".
The blonde alien beauty giggled softly and answered, "You can keep calling me Kara. It's only when I wear my superheroine costume that you need to call me Supergirl.".
Yume inquired, "Why is it that you have an alternate identity if you are a superheroine?".
Kara sighed softly and answered, "It's mostly to protect my family and friends, as the chances of the bad guys and girls I beat might try to use them against me. But I remember what Chiaotzu said some time ago, that this is a whole new universe where no one knows that Supergirl doesn't even exist. And that if we are to be living together… well, time to start taking that leap of faith in trusting the ones that are here with me.".
She looked to the halfa hero with a genuine smile and finished, "Besides, if someone like Danny could reveal his identity to us to protect us some days ago, and just now to you and Inukami… well, I believe it was safe for me to reveal myself like this.".
Danny had a good feeling in his heart when he heard this, glad that he was able to help Kara even if it was indirectly like so.
Gwen Tennyson stood up and stated with conviction, "Well, if we are doing this… might as well join in.".
She looked to the others and said, "I may not be a full alien like Kara and Starfire, but am half an alien.". Now this got the intrigue of the group very much so, as they had heard so far of full-blooded aliens but not half of one. Not so who already knew their origins, like April who was also part-alien due to the experiments done to her mother years ago.
Emma inquired in a tone that was a mixture of surprise and awe, "Wait! If you're half-alien, does that mean you're… also half-human?".
Gwen Ten nodded, lifting her right hand and formed a sphere of purple-magenta energy that did surprise the group. And also sent some sensations through certain ones. Through Danny, he felt an electric sensation course through his body. It was brief, but quite powerful. He thought to himself, 'Whoa! It felt like Yume and Inukami's entrance, but… this one feels different. I would say the word is… primal. It has some serious strength, yet not refined…'. He would have been surprised if he knew that Sabrina and certain other
The martial artist in the room native to the DB world all thought at once, 'Wow! This magic of hers feels powerful, but also it feels raw and primal…'.
The cousin of Ben Tennyson explained to everyone, "This is mana, which is the mystic life energy that permeates all living things. My grandmother Verdona is an Anodite from the planet Anodyne, and they are beings comprised of pure energy like this. They can do almost anything, taking mana from their surroundings. They can also take human form, and my grandfather Max Tennyson met and married her. He was not surprised when she revealed herself to him, and it seems that I inherited that special 'spark' as she called it.".
She soon formed energy constructs with her mana, which against impressed the group & also got the wheels turning in the heads of certain martial artists. That if something like mana could do that, perhaps they could do the same with their ki…
Angelica inquired curiously, "So are Anodites like Kryptonians and Argonians, like Kara here?". She was taking all of these revelations quite well, even though her mind was about to explode from information & sensory overload. I mean, coming into a completely new universe due to the actions of a mysterious being known only as DJ, finding out that Danny was part spirit or something like that, being in a world where dinosaurs & anthros lived in plus more supernatural beings and more… she was surprised that she was not in a loony bin right now from all that was happening to her.
Gwen Ten shook her head and answered, "Not really. Kara here gains her energy from the Sun, while I still get my energy like a regular mortal. I can draw energy from my surroundings, but it's more like a back-up thing since I'm not a full-bloodied Anodite like my grandmother.". This seemed to satisfy the group, at least for the time being.
The alluring magical redheaded Tennyson continued, "Anodites are free-spirited, not taking life seriously like human beings. Sometimes it's up to a point where they disregard the morality of their choices, wanting to serve their own pleasures. Add that they normally do not affiliate with 'normal folk' or non-energy beings, their views and actions are slightly conscending. My grandmother is like that, but she still likes to make good choices where it concerns family.".
She also neglected to tell them about the weaknesses of herself & her race. Like Kara, she did not fully trust the people there yet. And it was necessary to protect herself. However… perhaps with time and bonding, that could change in the future.
Yume studied the pink-magenta energy in Gwen's hand, and after some time stated, "Well, this mana is similar to magic. But it's a little bit different…".
Gwen Ten looked to her and inquired in a curious tone, "What do you mean by that Miss Tenshi?".
The young sorceress answered in a lecture-like tone, "While your mana is impressive and quite powerful, it feels like raw, primal magic. While you do have good control of it, I can feel a primal feeling to it. So it's more based on unrefined magic, at least that is what it looks & feels to me.".
Master Roshi added in, "It seems that you have much potential and possibilities Tennyson-chan, just like young Danny here. With some training and dedication, you could go quite far.".
Now this surprised Gwen very much, as she believed she had a good grasp on the power her ancestry gave to her. But it seems that there was still things that she could learn… NEEDED to learn in this case. She had self-taught herself in her alien ancestry arts, just as Danny had been self-taught concerning his ghostly powers. But if they had some proper, real training… well, maybe they could finally realize their full potential. And discover new abilities or insights that could open up new possibilities!
The Turtle Hermit than asked the pointed question, "Are you still willing to learn from the both of us though? I promise you it's going to be tough.".
Tenshi-chan added in, "He's right. While I am a fair teacher, I also expect nothing less than 100 percent from my students.". She looked to the others whom she would be teaching, showcasing in a silent gesture that it meant for them too.
After some thinking, Miss Tennyson answered with conviction, "Yes! I want to learn from the both of you, and I won't slack off!". Now this brought pleasant smiles to the two teachers; one of martial arts, one for the magical arts. And it was true, as Gwen showed to be the more studious of the trio that comprised of her, Ben and Kevin. Her grades and how much trust she had within the Plumbers structure was proof.
A few moments after Gwen Ten made her statement, another young woman stood up & this time it was Cleo Sertori. It seemed that she had made up her mind, and also found the courage to rise up and say what she needed to say.
She gathered her strength and spoke in a voice that was hesitant but pushing on through, "Well… I guess I'll go next. I may not be an alien like Gwen and Kara, but I am half-human too. I'm part mermaid.".
Now this did surprise the group, Krillin speaking up in a tone that mirrored his emotion, "You? You're part mermaid? But… you don't have a tail, or scales or anything like that!".
Cleo sighed, looking to the others and explaining, "It's a bit complicated. I wasn't born part mermaid, but rather made." She than explained on how she got her form and abilities; on how she got stranded in the ocean after a little joyriding in a boat, paddling all the way to a deserted island where she spent several hours exploring the island, managed to find her way into an underground cave with a pool in it, took a soak into the pool when a full moon hit it the cave and changed the water somehow, managed to get rescued and soon discovered her form at home when she took a bath & sprouted a mermaid tail.
The young woman decided to alter the origin tale slightly, leaving out her friends Emma and Rikki. Like Kara and Gwen, she did not fully trust the others with all her information… but perhaps down the line it would change.
She finished her tale by saying, "And I discovered that when I'm exposed to water for about ten seconds, that is when I change into her a mermaid.".
Debbie snapped her fingers as if she figured something out. She looked to Cleo and stated, "Ah ha! So that explains why you didn't go swimming with us at the pool, or going into the sauna as well! You didn't want us to see your mermaid form!".
Miss Sertori nodded her head, also admitting that when they all left, she would go swimming in the pool to enjoy the water by herself. And also to relax in the sauna, though it was a bit difficult to sit up properly with a tail, getting some of the group to snicker at the mental images in their heads concerning that.
Daria asked an important question in her usual tone, "If you are a mermaid, does that mean you have powers or no?".
After some thinking, Cleo decided to be honest with them. She answered, "Yes, I do but it only happens in my mermaid form. I have hydrokinesis, which means I can manipulate water liquids. I can control both ice and boiling water, depending on my hand movements.".
Danny nodded his head and stated, "That is actually a very powerful ability. I mean, if you can control water, that means you can control all kinds of moisture both outside and in, right?".
Cleo was about to say something, but stopped herself when she really thought about it. While she could manipulate water molecules and the flow of it, could she really do what Danny just said? She never tried that before, and now the thought that she could perform such a feat opened up some possibilities.
Yume spoke up, "Young Fenton is right, dear. If you can manipulate water like you say, then I believe you can take this ability further. Explore the possibilities with it, and also to know the limits as well. Along with finding if you can resist the temptation to use your newfound knowledge in a negative way.".
Inukami added in, "Also, Yume here knows some spells that can help you to move around even while in mermaid-form.". Now that was an incentive for Cleo, as while she had her powers as a mermaid, she had to be in her form & in water to use it. And also that having limited motion while in said form was a problem. While being creative and inventive were key, there was only so much one can do with limited options and spells.
Maybe by learning from Yume, she can be useful more for her friends while being mobile like so. And perhaps teach the magic to said friends, IF it was possible.
After some internal thinking, she came to a decision and stated with clear conviction, "Okay than, you have yourself a student! I'll do my best for you Miss Yume!".
This made the sorceress smile, glad to have another eager student for her to teach. She really did know some spells that would give mermaids mobility on the land, and even a little bit in the air! She learned from certain mermaids and other magical teachers the spells, and thus can now pass down the knowledge to another.
The next one up to bat was Sabrina, the lovely blonde preteen finding her courage and speaking, "Well, it seems you have another student. I'm similar to Gwen, but not the alien sense. I'm a half-witch.".
Miss Spellman than started to explain on how this came to be; her father was a powerful warlock by the name of Edward Spellman, who was the brother of her aunts Zelda and Hilda. Her mother was a lovely little lady named Diana, who was a mortal. They had stayed married for some time after her birth, but they soon divorced on good terms. Her aunts told her that her mother & Edward were very much in love to be sure, but that her mother was not capable of handling the other side that Edward was part of… which was the Nether-side, the magical realm where all kinds of magical/mythical creatures lived in. And also that she went to a school that was for witches and wizards in said realm, where she was learning to be a witch even though she was not that good due to her half-status.
She lived with her aunts and also her cat Salem Saberhagen… who was originally a warlock until he was turned into the cat by a governing board called the Witches Council as punishment for trying to take over the world long ago. So now he had to spend 100 years with the Spellman family as a sort of community service to them.
This was news to many people, especially those of the magical nature like Makoto Kino & those that specialized in learning about the paranormal like Diana Lombard. Especially Miss Lombard, as she had no idea on any of the stuff that was just told to her. Oh, she heard about aliens and other way-out there races and beings from her time in The Center, but she was just all new to her.
She made sure that her mind absorbed everything to write down later in her diary for future reference. And also to let her organization know about all of this.
Danny asked the young teenager, "Wait Sabrina! Is this Netherealm the same as the Ghost Zone?".
Sabrina thought on that for a moment, then remembered something from one of her studies in her supernatural school. She answered, "Not really. The Ghost Zone is like a neighbor to the Netherealm, like how continents are here on Earth but more dimensional-wise. I mean, some ghosts and spirits do live in there but a majority of them live Ghost Zone.". Spectra herself confirmed it, saying that her father's side of the family did live in said zone but that her mother's side opted to settle in the Netherealm.
Gwen Honorine inquired, "You said that you go to a school for witches and wizards, but you aren't that good due to your half-blood status?".
Miss Spellman looked down in resignation, long accepting that little fact that seemed to always bite her like so. She answered, "Yeah… because of that, my spells are not that powerful. My peers use their hands and such for magic, while I have to use a wand. Sigh… it's something I have accepted, but it hurts to know and see what being just half a witch is. It's not like Danny being a halfa, since it seems he is powerful like he is.".
Now let it be known that Mr. Fenton/Phantom did NOT like to see a lady in distress like so. He spoke up with some strength in his tone, "Now hold on Sabrina! I think you may be seeing this from a wrong angle.".
Seeing the confused look by her, Danny continued on, "You maybe half a witch, but perhaps there is something in your mortal side that has yet to be awakened. I honestly don't believe that you will always be less powerful than a full-blooded witch, but… I think with some real hard work and training, you may actually surpass those who are!".
This did surprise Sabrina that someone would speak with that kind of reason. She had long heard and accepted from her aunts, and also Salem, that she would be less powerful than a full-blooded witch.
Yume came in with a firm conviction in her tone, "Danny is right Sabrina! I know plenty of half witches and warlocks, and they all managed to go the distance despite people saying that they never would due to their half-status! And I can sense much untapped potential and promise within you, and I believe you can rise above what any have said about you!".
Sabrina was more touched here than she had been in her life. She had gotten into some mishaps and such back at her hometown, and also learned many lessons back home. But sadly none involved hearing words that she could surpass others due to her half-blood status. Now though… she felt hope and determination! Hope to finally see if she can truly surpass the expectations of those that believed she could only do things by half due to her lineage, and determination to show them that she could go the distance and more!
Miss Spellman looked to Danny, giving him a very grateful smile and the young man smiling back as he was glad to be of help like so. Seeing him smile got her heart beating fast, which perplexed her a little but set it aside for now. She looked to Yume and stated, "Sabrina Spellman ready for class, ma'am!".
Tenshi-sensei was quite pleased to see that she had new students, and they were eager to study and learn! And she would do her best with them, and with what time she had with them of course.
Yamcha looked to the others and inquired, "Well then, is there anyone else that would like to step up to the plate?". The others were now curious if certain someone's would stand and explain themselves like the others had done.
Someone indeed stand up, and it was the lovely little lady Musa Liqin. The young woman looked to the others as she rose up, gathering herself and saying, "Well, I guess it's cool to reveal myself as well since I am starting to trust you all. While I do look human, I'm actually not from Earth or the normal dimension. I'm a fairy from a magical dimension & my home planet is Melody which is place that thrives on music and sound.".
To prove her point, she did a pose and called up her magic. She did her transformation process and pose; the clothes that she bought from the store at West City being replaced by her Winx-form clothes which consisted of a sparkling red top with translucent pink fabric at the middle, a red mini skirt, and knee-high wedge red boots. Purple headphones materialized atop of her head and purple ribbons around her forearms, the one on her left arm has loose ends hanging from it. Her wings are translucent and bright blue with purple bands in the middle. Magenta shorts on under her skirt, completing the ensemble.
This did surprise the crowd, although certain ones who have seen it before were only mildly impressed. Master Roshi was smiling big time with his face showing a healthy blush & exclaimed with delight, "WHOO HOO! Now that is a transformation!".
The other male members in the group also sported some blushes on their faces, though one could not tell from Chiaotzu. Yamcha was smiling at seeing such a sight, though it did seem to tick off Bulma who stomped on his foot hard. This caused him to hold in his pain of agony as he endured the pain to his right foot. Oolong and Krillin were grinning as they saw the transformation, their eyes drinking in the lovely new form and wear of Musa.
Said fairy was amused by this, but she saw that while Danny was sporting a small blush, his eyes showed genuine appreciation for her form. There was no lusting or base desire that she usually would see in men when they looked at her. This was new for her, making her heart beat a little bit faster but she didn't notice it.
She did though when he whistled softly and said with admiration and respect in his tone, "I have to say Musa, you look beautiful!". This made her blush and act a bit shy, just a bit.
Musa replied with appreciation in her tone, "Heh, thanks Danny. It's glad to see people really appreciate me when I am in my Winx-form here.". She did not mention that she could change into different forms; her Charmix & Enchantix-forms. Like the others, she only had some limited trust in the group. But that would change with time and action on both her & the others parts in the future.
The young fairy explained more on how she was a Guardian Fairy for her home world Melody, and also that she went to a magical girls-only boarding school called Alfea College for Fairies in a placed called Magix, which was a planet that was at the very center of the magical dimensional realm. The planet was considered the capital of all the realms within the magical universe, as well as the Crossroads to All Magical Dimensions. She decided to not give away everything, such as the two other magical schools that were Cloud Tower which catered to witches & Red Fountain School for Specialists which was a paramilitary boarding school which trained students in the art of combat through various weapons… and also in handling/taming dragons!
She also managed to keep out her friend's names, as she felt that there was no need to tell them. Again, trust was limited but hopefully with time that too will change.
Makoto, Sabrina, Gwen and those of magical ability were surprised to hear this kind of info. They had believed to know much about magic & magical realms, but it seemed that their world view was expanding exponentially! They would make sure to write any and all information now in their diaries. Just like Danny had a journal that he was utilizing to write down, a majority of the ladies had diaries that they had been using to chronicle their days so far in the DB universe.
Inukami inquired, "And what are your abilities when in this form, Liqin-san?".
Musa answered the anthro wolf woman, "Well, my powers resolve around sound. Or as my teacher called it, of sound waves and sonic pressure. I usually like to use my powers through music, but I can still do it either without them. I can use soundwaves and sonic waves to do a variety of things, though the greater the power, the more it takes out of me.".
There was no exaggeration there; Musa's soundwave powers were quite versatile and potent, and it made her to be quite a formidable Guardian Fairy for her homeworld.
Yume stated, "Well, it seems that your magical ability and powers are quite formidable. And it seems that you have some decent schooling under your belt. Would you like to continue learning, even if it's from a different teacher than the ones you are accustomed to?".
The lovely member of the Winx Club gave it some thought, and after a few moments she replied, "Yes ma'am! Normally I would like to treat all of this like a summer vacation. But… I think it's better to still have me learn magic. Maybe of a different kind that could actually help me to improve!".
It was true. She and her friends needed all the help they could get against the powerful sorcerer known as Valtor, who was as wicked and devious as he was powerful. In the past, he was responsible for the deaths of countless beings & helping the Ancestral Witches in destroying the planet Domino which was Bloom's home. He was captured and the Ancestral Witches defeated… but at a heavy cost. He was imprisoned in a place called the Omega Dimension, the Witches in the Obsidian Dimension.
But Valtor had gotten free thanks to the direct descendants of the Ancestral Witches, which were Icy, Darcy and Stormy who were the group known as the Trix. Said group had been a pain in the butt for Musa and the Winx Club, more so now with Valtor out and causing trouble.
So Musa needed to get stronger, and also more versatile. While she enjoyed a good vacation as much as the next teenage girl, she also knew to not waste an opportunity when it presented itself like so.
Shortly after Musa spoke those words, another of the ladies still up & this time it was April O'Neil. The redheaded young woman gathered her courage and stated, "Well… guess if people are trusting others more now, might as well join the club. I'm half-alien as well but… not like how Gwen is.".
The kunoichi than started to explain her origins; she stated that her grandfather long ago had awakened some inter-dimensional aliens called the Kraang, who captured and experimented on him. They soon did the same to her parents Kirby & Caoilinn, and those experiments resulted in her having powers when being born.
She later discovered that she was half-human, half-Kraang & that she had supernatural abilities such as her psychic powers. She could use telekinesis, tracking via telepathy & also a special sense that warned her of incoming danger.
April also told them that she found a mentor in a man by the name of Splinter, who was well-versed in the art of ninjutsu. He took her in to harness and control her powers, and also to teach her in the art of self-defense as well with his sons that he named after the famous Renaissance artists- Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo and Raphael. During her training, she was given a tessen which she explained was a Japanese war fan. April said she was willing to get it from her room to prove her story to them, but most of them said that it was not necessary.
The clever kunoichi did leave things out though; her father was still alive and with her, but her mother… that was another story, as she was taken by the Kraang when she was six years old. And to this day, it was unofficial of her status though April was doubtful that her mother was alive.
She also left out the part of Splinter and his sons being mutants. It was true technically that said beings were men, but not of the human variety. While she did trust the group, not with everything… though in the future it would change, hopefully.
After the explanation, the group was surprised on the origins of April and what Miss O'Neil had to endure thanks to the aliens. Tien was the first to speak, "I have to say O'Neil-san, you really are a tough girl to be able to endure all of that because of these aliens.". He really did give the girl props as her origins spoke of her toughness and endurance. She smiled softly and thanked him for the compliment.
But she had a look of concern come on her face as she asked, "So… you guys are okay that I'm a mutant of sort?".
Danny chuckled and replied in a good natured, yet at the same time serious tone, "April, take a look at us. I'm a halfa, Gwen is half-alien like you are, Cleo is part-mermaid, Kara is an alien, Sabrina is half-witch and Musa is from another dimension! Not to mention our new friends here who is an anthro wolf woman, a sorceress, two shapeshifting anthros, an old martial arts master who is 300-plus years old, a three-eyed martial artist, a small psychic martial artist & finally someone who can change personalities with a sneeze! And also another little lady who can change too, but depending on her mood.".
Mr. Phantom looked to Katie with a smile, who blushed from the look and smiled back. He then looked back to April and finished, "I think you're in good company April. Besides, mutant or not, you cool in my book!". Now this made April's heart beat faster at hearing this, as Danny accepted her for her mutant heritage all thanks to the inter-dimensional aliens. And also this made certain female mutant's hearts beat a bit faster as well, in a positive way, at hearing his words.
Violet inquired, "Are these Kraangs still around on Earth?".
After some internal debating, April answered his question, "Yes, they still are around as they use exo-suits to disguise themselves. I have no idea where their main hideout is, but I do know its somewhere in my hometown of New York City. And I know that they live in another dimension called Dimension X.".
Now this information did surprise certain ones that hailed from said place April just mentioned, which was Felicia, Kitty and Gwen Ten. And it also surprised Diana as she believed that this piece of information was nowhere in her work's database, something that HAD to be corrected soon! And this information made a certain superheroine wonder if powers were made due to these experimentations.
Master Roshi stated, "I have to say, you have lived quite an impressive life April-chan. I can see more clearly now on why you wanted to learn martial arts from me.".
The Turtle Master than asked in a serious tone, "Do you still want to learn from me and the others? I can sense that you are skilled in ninjutsu, and also that you have much potential and promise that have yet to be tapped into. I would like to train you, but only if you are fully committed to it. And also committed to not use your powers, current and soon to be discovered, for evil or base purposes.".
April did not even hesitate as she answered with confidence and conviction, "I would still like to learn from you and the others here, Roshi-sensei. I still believe I have much to learn, and I promise on my honor and life that I will not abuse any of the teachings you and the others give to me! And that I will use my powers and abilities to protect others, not for any kind of evil.".
After some intense staring at one another, Master Roshi smiled and spoke in his friendly tone, "That's good to hear! I believe that both of us will benefit from this.". April smiled and nodded her head, glad that she was still a student of the ancient master. She looked to the others who smiled back, Danny doing the same and giving her a thumbs up sign while also nodding his head.
To her, it was good to be accepted by the others like so.
Shortly after that, another young lady stood up and this time it was Kitty Pryde. The brown-haired teenage beauty spoke up in a tone that was hesitant, but she forced herself to go through with her words, "Well… since no one has a problem with mutants, I guess it's safe to say this. I'm a mutant… but not like April here.".
She went on to explain her mutant origins; on how it was a traumatic effect that caused something called the M-Gene to activate, which was a special kind of gene that was in human-DNA but only in certain ones. She told them that it could activate through a number of events; when at a certain age, when enduring something very stressful, naturally at birth even though it's very rare and so on.
Kitty stated that mutants like her were looked down upon by humanity, or at least a certain portion in certain cities and such. It was thanks to a man named Professor Charles Xavier that she was found, and after some persuasion from her parents, took her to a special boarding school called Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters which catered to aiding mutants to assisting mankind with their abilities.
She neglected to tell them about the other students who were mutants, thinking that now was not the right time to mention them… though it could change in the future.
The young mutant beauty stated, "My power is that I can become intangible, like how Danny is with his ghost power. It's a useful power, but it's not cool as certain others I know…".
Danny spoke up, "Hold on there Kitty! Just because a power is not flashy and such doesn't mean it's less cool. Sometimes it's the subtle things that are better. I mean, I know that going intangible has saved my hide many times. So just because what you have is not flashy or strong as others doesn't mean it's a useless ability.".
Yamcha added in, "Danny is right Kitty. I know a lot of people here in this world that would like to have something cool like that!".
Krillin put in, "Yeah! And also, you seem like a nice girl, so being a mutant doesn't change a thing to us!". This got many agreements from the group, making Kitty very glad that this was so. Back at their own universe, people still had a problem with those who were mutants. But it seems that there was still those who didn't mind at all, and also some that accepted her with said power.
But here… she was in good company, and from what she had seen so far, she would be considered normal in the wacky/crazy universe she was in now!
She smiled and thanked the group, especially Krillin, Yamcha and Danny for their words.
Just then, Felicia rose up and smirked at Kitty. She stated with some flair in her tone, "Well then, it looks like us cats need to stick together. I'm a mutant myself actually.".
The blonde super-thief told the group that she was a mutant too, and her power was to give bad luck. Seeing the looks of skepticism on the faces of the group, she explained that her eyes would glow which would activate her power. Anyone that looked into her eyes would dosed with a good amount of bad luck in a way that just had to be seen to believe. She did not think it was a good idea to mention on how the power could be reflected back at her through a mirrored object.
Master Roshi stated, "Well now, this is indeed unexpected. Your power is versatile Kitty-chan, something to not take lightly. Yours too Felicia-chan.".
He then inquired, "Now Kitty, are you still sure you want to train with me? It's going to be hard, and like I said with April, that you'll use any skill or kind of powers, current and yet to be discovered, to protect the innocent ones & not to do evil.".
Miss Pryde answered with resolve, "I still want to train with you, and also to not use my power or any skill you'll teach me for bad girl stuff!". She was doubtful of one thing. Her only power was intangibility, and she did not think that she had any more abilities within her, M-gene or not. Only time would tell if she still had something that could be brought out through other means.
The Turtle Hermit smiled and nodded, than looked to Felicia. He inquired, "I trust that you'll won't use your bad luck on us, Felicia-chan?".
The alluring blonde beauty smirked and answered in a coy voice, "I don't know… I mean, who knows if a certain someone tries to peep in on us poor, innocent young women, and I catch them in my gaze…". The statement was a mixture of a threat and promise; that any Peeping Toms that tried to sneak peeks at her or the others, they would receive bad luck that they would not believe! And who knows what could happen then?
Master Roshi, Krillin and Oolong chuckled nervously while sweating slightly after Felicia's words, which made the ladies grin as they had something to keep certain ones at bay. Danny was really glad that he managed to straighten himself out before coming to this universe.
He had used his powers of invisibility/intangibility to sneak into the Girls Locker Room at his high school right after he acquired his Phantom-form, but some time after looking back on it… he realized what he did was stupid and also disrespectful to women. Yes, he was a red-blooded young man who really wanted to see the fine female form. But he had allowed his hormones to overpower his judgement, and that was a flimsy excuse at best.
So now he was working on trying to really show real love, appreciation, admiration and respect for women like a hot-blooded gentleman instead of that carnal-loving fool he used to be.
Seeing that she was the last one, Miss Lombard stood up and stated, "Well… since everyone here has spoken, guess I'm the last one.". While it wasn't necessarily true, as some of the ladies still had certain secrets that had yet to be revealed, some even realized as they did not know they had a magical ability, Diana went on strong.
She told everyone that she worked at The Center, which was a place that housed many kinds of supernatural & paranormal beings that were considered a great risk to humanity. This was news to Danny as he was aware of only one organization that was committed to exterminating anything out of the ordinary, and it was the Guys In White. He was wondering if the place Diana spoke of was similar to it, making a mental note to ask later on.
Diana finished up, "And honestly, I do not know if I am magical. I mean, I was born a normal human with no kinds of special abilities like magic and such. I think Oolong and Puar may have been mistaken when they called me on it.".
Yume went to Diana, stopping a few feet from her & holding out her right hand. Many were confused on this, especially Diana, but the confusion turned to surprise when her entire hand glowed a soft forest-green color. After a few moments, the sorceress spoke up in a tone that was light and playful, "It seemed that my old students were correct. You ARE magical, and it seems that your abilities lie strictly in healing.".
Now THIS surprised the group, though Miss Lombard was in a state of shock at this declaration. She asked in a stuttering tone, "B-B-But how can that…? I mean, I never…".
Inukami stepped up to the plate and stated firmly, "I think I have an idea on why you have changed into a magical person. Just a theory mind you, but being around so many supernatural & paranormal beings must have subtly affected your body. And it seems that overtime, it changed you. And you coming to our universe must have seriously jump-started it so now you are a magical being.".
It seemed that Yume really did tell Inukami everything concerning Danny and the others being from a completely different universe/plane of reality.
Yume looked to Diana and said softly but full of strength, "I can help you in bringing out your newfound power, and also to help you understand your real capabilities and abilities. But only if you really want to be my student. I won't force you to take my classes. The choice is all up to you, Diana-san.".
After some intense internal thinking that took a couple of minutes, Diana made her decision. The young woman answered back, "Well… seems not much choice here, but I am grateful that you did give me one like that. So then… you have a student in me, Miss Yume!". This made the sorceress smile, as this was truly new territory for Miss Lombard and she would do her best to help her navigate this completely new chapter in her life.
Also this; magical beings that healed were considered very rare in the DB universe. Sure there were beings who had magical/mystical powers, but a majority of them had powers for fighting and such. And while there were herbalists and those that used remedies from nature, the numbers were still small. So this was a prime opportunity for her, and also for Diana. To see what the limits of her magical strength in healing were, what kind of skills/abilities she could learn & so on.
Nebula walked over to the ones who had confessed their secrets, licking and nuzzling each one in a show of acceptance to the ladies. In her view, they were still the same good humans to her. The ladies giggled softly and accepted the actions of the baby dragon.
Master Roshi stood up from his position and stated, "Okay now! It seems that we have everything squared away here. And now, time to get down to some serious business.".
He looked to everyone and said, "I need to talk to Inukami, Yume, Bulma and Jenny please. Oh, and I would like to include Gwen Honorine-chan, Angelica-chan and Emma-chan in on this too.". The three extra women were a bit surprised by this, and also mildly curious on what Master Roshi wanted with them. The aged martial arts master than started to walk to a room that was adjacent to the living room, the other women looking to one another before following after him.
When they were in the room, the doors to it slid shut. Danny and the others were a bit curious on what Master Roshi had to say to them. The schedule concerning Gwen Ten, they all knew. But it seemed that something had cropped up that had Master Roshi add in Inukami and the others.
Launch asked in her sweet tone, "Oh dear, I wonder what it is that he wants to talk with Emma, Gwen and Angelica about?".
Kim replied to her question, "I don't know, but until then, how about we go outside? Try to work off the meal we had and enjoy some fresh air.". Nebula nodded her head, squeaking loudly that she agreed with her. The others thought it was a good idea, so they left the living room and went outside to do anything to stretch their bodies & also to enjoy the outdoors for a bit until Master Roshi called them back.
Next time on Danny Fenton: Season of Growth, Master Roshi emerges from his talk with Yume Tenshi and the others. The schedule of Gwen Tennyson is revealed, and also the announcement that training for Danny and the others will start tomorrow! And also, Inukami has a special assignment from the Turtle Hermit that is to aid the fourteen Turtle students. And after a tour by Danny of the former RR grounds, Yume will show to her students on how she will teach them.
So stay tuned to the next episode of Danny Fenton: Season of Growth!
{{Outro- See very first chapter in the story here for it}}
(Author's Notes: And… cut! That is it for this chapter! It was a long one, but to me very much worth doing! Sorry that it took so long to make it, I had to go back to my previous chapters for this book & also my first book to find out the necessary information. And also looking up the information on various characters and such was needed.
Before I say or do anything else, I wish to give praise and honor to the Lord. Thank you God for once again helping me with this chapter! The honor and glory goes to you, and you alone! Thank you for helping me, and I will continue to seek your guidance and counsel. Not just for my works, but for everything I do in life. Please continue to guide me, strengthen me and forge me to becoming a better servant and soldier for you! And continue to do the same for my family, my friends and those out there that still look to you.
So many secrets have been revealed, though some information from the ladies have been kept out. It was tricky, but I managed to do this for Kara and the others. They do not fully trust the others yet with some information, but that will change in the far future. It will take time, effort and also making bonds with one another to change their mind. But now this; Danny WILL be the catalyst & center for the change to occur so that one day, they will confide in him and the others everything else.
I really am aiming for real growth and development for the characters, minor and major, as well as for the story and plot. It will take a lot of time, coordination, and also seeking help from those who are experts & also those that I do trust. But I believe that it will all be worth it in the end.
In addition, I believe that Sabrina and those with only half-blood status and such can go very far. Remember Gohan from his early years in Dragonball Z? He was a Sleeper due to being half-human/half-Saiyan, and he was quite powerful when his full power/potential was awakened during those instances. So I believe that Sabrina, Gwen Ten, Cleo, Diana and the others can exceed where even their full-blooded ancestry could not do! It will take much time, training, effort and more to realize it, but I believe it will be worth it in the end!
Also, I have my own theories concerning Danny and the others that are much different from the theories that are put forth by certain others & of course MUCH different from the cannon version. And with Danny, it will be of the Christian element and in that I am NOT ashamed at all to do! I am proud on where I am going with this, and will not stop or slow down in that area!
And one last thing I wish to make clear. Paulina, Star, Vicky and Cree… I see them as being redeemable from their cannon selves as they are still young. They are at that age where there is still time for them to be saved from being really nasty people down the line. Sad to say, Butch Hartman and others did not/would not/could not realize their full potential and promise like me and also my friend Author Dreams Come True 996 sees.
But they will NOT become Mary Sues, that I can assure you! They will develop differently through different & unique circumstances and trials/tribulations throughout the story, but they will grow into the characters I know they can be through hard development! Done naturally and flowingly, not just overnight. No Mary Sues or Gary Stus in my works!
I know that nowadays in movies and stories, people try to redeem/save villains and such. But I do know this; there are some that just cannot be redeemed/saved. That is truly God's department to help them out in, and also it is the choices they make that will tell them of their fate in the end. So Vlad Masters in my story… he made his choices in life, and so thus will NOT be redeemed. That I want to make perfectly clear.
And now for the questions! Ahem…
How did you like the introductions of Yume and Inukami? What kind of questions would you ask of either of them concerning their occupations?
What did you think of Kara revealing herself like so? What would you say to her after her explanation?
What did you think of Gwen Tennyson after she revealed herself? Do you believe that she can go far in both her magical and martial arts studies with Yume and Master Roshi?
What did you think of Cleo revealing her origins? And after hearing about her hydrokinesis powers, what would you suggest she train in to take it further?
What did you think of Sabrina showing her own origins? And what would you tell her concerning her half-blood status?
What did you think when Musa showed who she really is? And hearing about her magical abilities are connected to sound, what would you suggest to Yume on how to take her training further with it?
What did you think when hearing April's mutant origins? And what kind of ability do you think she can unlock when training under Master Roshi and the others?
What did you think when Kitty and Felicia revealed their mutant powers? And do you think that Master Roshi can find something that Kitty may still have in her through his training?
And finally this, what did you think when Diana was shown that she has truly changed into a magical being? What kind of techniques/skills/abilities would you teach her to fully bring out her healing power?
Optional Bonus Question: If it was up to you, how would you develop the abilities of the magical beings? And also do you think that their parents/organizations and such back at their universe would be stunned if they found out about said origins & how they seemed to have been missed by them?
R&R, no flames, enjoy and leave LONG reviews!)
