Episode 8: Phantom Phenomenon P2

Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon, I do own Hotaru, Darnel, Ashle and Queen Venomica. I also don't own any of the special guest stars I am using from Danny Phantom.

Things looked grim for two heroes in ether Danvile Wisconsin and in Manassas Virgina. Hotaru as Lucario was facing off against Vlad, Ember and a Shadow Muk in Virgina while Danny Phantom was in a hot heated battle against Queen Venomica and Shadow Cofigries. Neither hero or heroine knew that at this very moment EXACTLY at the same time that they were facing off against each others villains. Danny tried to process whom he was fighting against. He studied Queen Venomica with one eye and the other eye on the strange Shadow Pokemon still believing it was a ghost he needed to capture back.

"Okay Danny" Danny told himself "You're up against a true Demon in Queen Venomica, Succubus Naga Queen...And an Egyptian coffin ghost."

He saw his sister Jazz and Sam having their backs against the wall as before this confrontation, Queen Venomica tracked them and cornered them "What do you want with those two girls?"

Queen Venomica grinned evilly flicking her forked snake tongue "To eat, that's what."

Danny raised an eyebrawl "You eat...humans?"

Queen Venomica nodded "Female ones yesss, malesss not so muccch."

"Well all you're going to get is a mouthful of this!" Danny told her gathering a green ghost blast in his hand and fired at her.

Queen Venomica normally would've raised her tail or dodged in someway but she let the blast hit her and much to Danny's dismay she still stood tall as ever without any damage "What the? That didn't hurt you?!"

Queen Venomica smirked evilly "Of course it didn't! I'm a Demon! Ghost powers don't have any effect on us what so ever! As you ghosts aren't the only beings that can cause possession...Mostly if one is posseed it's under the work of a Demon, not a ghost."

Danny came at her "You're still not going to eat my sister and friend!"

He flew at her with a punch but she raised one arm and swatted him away like a fly causing him to go crashing back first into a tree and yawned mocking him "Is that all you had Phantom? You disssapoint me. From what I heard about you from an ally that you fight I'd thought you'd be tougher."

Danny Phantom came out of the tree "Yeah? Well I'm just warming up! If my blast had no effect on you and your arms allow you to get to me first before I do, why don't I?"

He prepared himself for a Ghostly Wail and Erdos from his position gave Cofigris the order "Protect yourself."

Shadow Cofigris cast a green barrier around itself just as Danny shouted "GIVE YOU AND YOUR GHOST ALLY A GHOSTLY WAIL!"

Queen Venomica simply stayed where she was watching the Ghostly Wail come at her and wash over her. Some of the Ghostly Wail also managed to make it's way over to Shadow Cofigrius whom was using Protect to protect itself. With Danny watching this out come he hoped it was enough after all it worked on Vlad and many other of his ghost foes.

*Intro- Latias's voice- Three years ago, my brother Latios and I made our escape from Cipher taking the Rototrix with us. For three years we had avoided being captured and turned into Shadow Pokemon as well as keeping the Rototrix safe from Cipher whom were making plans to use it for their own evil needs. Three years later, Cipher has remerged selling Shadow Pokemon to Earth in a bid to take over the universe. Luckily my brother and I managed to save a girl in need and gave her the Rototrix a device that transforms the wielder into a Pokegirl or Pokeboy of 14 different types of Pokemon. Now she has the difficult task in not defeating Cipher but purifying all of the Shadow Pokemon. Hotaru certainly has a difficult task to do but she's the only chance two worlds have and I have a feeling, Hotarumon 14 is going to stop Cipher's plans once and for all.

Back to show

Both Queen Venomica and her Shadow Pokemon ally the Shadow Cofigrus let Danny Phantom's attack rush over them. Thanks to Protect Shadow Cofigrus took NO damage. Queen Venomica also took no visible damage to her body, it did work somewhat on her hearing but even that was minimal. Danny blinks a Queen Venomica stood up tall and proud that she was a Demon "Didn't I tell you? Your ghossst powersss have no affect on me! Now Shadow Cofigrus time to punisssh him!"

Danny blinked with amazement his Ghost Wail which done high damage to Vlad and other ghost completely have no affect on his two opponents, as he was thinking the Shadow Cofigrus unleashed a Shadow Ball from behind Danny's back. Danny went to deflect it leaving his back unguarded and soon Venomica uses this to her advantage and comes at Danny's back.

"Danny watch out!" Tucker called to him.

Danny managed to deflect the Shadow Ball attack harmlessly into the air and saw Queen Venomica coming at him lunging at him with her basilisk long fangs. He turned trying to go intangible but the Succubus Naga Queen's fangs are able to counter this move with ease and deliver a venomous bite to his stomach "AHH!"

Danny kneels on all fours blinking that she bit right through his intangibility. Queen Venomica now resumes her position flicking her forked snake tongue "One bite from me is all it takesss for me to kill."

She smirks taunting Danny "What a ssshame too, I thought from what our ally that fights you, you'd be tougher."

Danny grunts feeling the venom flow through his system seeing that Queen Venomica had her sights on his sister and friend "Oh-no you don't!"

He flew at her needing to save his friends but Queen Venomica yawned bored that he wasn't giving her the fight she was hoping for then again when it came to a Demon, ghosts were usually powerless to do anything to them. Danny blasts at her trying to get her attention "Oh you are turning your back to me! I'm not finished yet!"

Queen Venomica lets the blast hit her without damage Danny tries to get her with one last punch but she raised her tail wrapping it around him and crushing him with it "Oh but I am! I wasss follisssh to think that you'd be a match to me!"

She tosses Danny to the ground whom grunts. Queen Venomica reaches a mirror just as Danny tries to come at her back again this time her mirror activated sucking Danny into it and she remarked "Sssee ya Phantom...Never come back!"

Tucker couldn't believe his eyes Queen Venomica had badly beaten Danny. He had no idea that ghosts had no effect on a Demon. He had to remark to himself "If ghosts can't harm Demons then what can?"

Queen Venomica didn't answer but she thought Hotarumon 14 can...I can still be harmed by what she has except for her ghost type Pokemon form, but all the ressst she can still harm me by. Ghost powers alone don't affect me.

She eyes Jazz and Sam whom were frightened that even Danny couldn't stop her. Queen Venomica flicks her tongue "Time to dine!"

The two girls scream as Venomica lunges at them but at the last minute Erdos called her to halt "Wait a second Venomica don't eat them yet!"

Queen Venomica blinked "What? Why?"

"They still might be some of use to us. Remember Vlad's plan. It was to attack his foe which we had but what better way to make sure of him coming to engage our army than to take his sister and friend hostage? Once he's truly gone then you can have your reward."

Queen Venomica had already coiled both girls and reluctantly agreed "Fine!"

With four Cipher Pions coming out and grabbing the two girls they were escorted to be held hostage with Venomica contacting Vlad telling him that she was victorious over Danny but her mirror did send Danny to Virgina.

In Manassas Virgina, Hotaru still as Lucario was in a heated battle herself against Ember, Vlad and Shadow Muk. So far the only damage she sustained was from Muk's Flamethrower attack but only after both Ember and Vlad attacked her in the back. She gets back onto her two feet watching her enemies.

"Not giving up are you?" Vlad taunted Hotaru.

"Your not taking into the fact that I'm part Japanese!" Hotaru warned him "Even though we know the meaning of the word surrender...We don't accept it most of the time!"

Vlad smirked as Ember glares dangerously at Hotaru "Oh you shall accept defeat this time! Come on Shadow Muk unleash your Flamethrower attack!"

"Oh he's not putting me on fire again!" Hotaru told them as Shadow Muk tries to unleash it's Flamethrower attack at her, she uses her gynastic skills to preform a back handspring then a back flip to successfully avoid the Flamethrower, she gathered in her Aura Sphere using it as she had done before like how Goku would use his ace move. The Aura Sphere attack hit Shadow Muk head on doing very little damage but it did make it move backwards. Hotaru lands on her two feet "That's funny...I thought that attack would do more damage than that!"

Darnel answered Hotaru "Hotaru...Fighting type moves are resisted by poison types!"

"Now you tell me!" Hotaru told him.

She sidesteps Vlad's blast and ducks Ember's own blast as well. She charges at Muk and with her bone staff then slams the bone staff onto the Muk's sludge pinning it on the ground then used her bone staff to hurdle over it as it had tried to use another Flamethrower attack on her in retaliation to her driving her staff into the ground on it. Hotaru pulls the bone staff out just as she hurdled herself over the Shadow Muk. Gathering metal in her hands she uses Metal Claw on the Shadow Muk driving them deep into it. Growling it now delivers a painful Flamethrower right in close combat. Hotaru grunts holding strong while using her Bone staff to and her strength to pick her foe up and with her strength hurls it onto Vlad and Ember. The two ghosts blink at the approaching shadow of Shadow Muk

"Rats!" Vlad shouted "That stinky thing is coming this way!"

Ember and Vlad manage to side step the Shadow Muk allowing it to slam into the ground between them. Hotaru was weakened buy the Flamethrower grunting on all fours muttering to herself "I can't take another flamethrower like that...At least not directly in close combat like that."

Ember and Vlad prepare to help Shadow Muk finish Hotaru off when Hotaru gets back onto her two feet weakly holding her Bone Staff. Then she gathered dark energies into the palms of her hand and focused it into a wave simular to how she could use her Aura Sphere, then she pushes the dark wave at her three opponents. Vlad and Ember try to go intangible while the wave hit Shadow Muk. Sadly going intangible didn't save Vlad and Ember whom actually took damage from the dark wave and were on their backs while Shadow Muk flinched.

"What move did she just unleash Darnel?" Ashley asked.

Darnel answered "Considering it affected Ember and Vlad badly, it had to be Dark Pulse, a Dark Type Move."

Ashley giggled pumping her fist "That was a good usage of Dark Pulse, Hotaru!"

"Thanks guys!" Hotaru said.

Vlad and Ember were still trying to get onto their feet due to the damage they sustained from getting nailed with Dark Pulse with Ashley asking Darnel "Why did those two take more damage than Shadow Muk?"

"Must be connected to Pokemon weaknesses" Darnel answered her "Dark Types attacks are Super-Effective on Ghost types."

Hotaru grabbed her Bone Staff charging into finish the fight "And with that I'll be finishing this fight!"

She came at her three opponents preparing to use Bone Rush. She ends up nailing Shadow Muk three times in a row, but each time she landed the blows she made sure to strike at the maxium hardest and fastest she could to deliver the blows. She also tried delivering her blows to Ember and Vlad. Two times each the two ghosts were hit by her Bone Staff but only due to not fully recovering from Hotaru's Dark Pulse attack. Then after she hit her opponents she gripped her Bone Staff and whacks all of them in their heads sending them flying backwards landing on the ground. The Shadow Muk wasn't beaten just yet, from the looks of it's face, Hotaru could see that it barely clung onto still needing to fight, possibly on one HP.

Hotaru watches as Vlad and Ember get back onto their two feet glaring at Hotaru with Ember cursing her luck "Does this remind you Vlad of Danny Phantom? We could be winning one moment then he turns it around!"

"It does indeed" Vlad admitted then he got word from Venomica that she had been victorious over Danny Phantom and had sent him through her mirror and Danny Phantom was on his way to Virginia and he cursed at his luck shouting "YOU BEAT HIM VENOMICA?! DARN IT I WISH I COULD'VE SEEM IT BUT...WAIT YOU SENT HIM OVER?!"

He would get word that Venomica said yes she did send him over to Manassas Virgina by mirror. Ember didn't exactly get it at first as she and Shadow Muk prepare to fight Hotaru even more when Vlad touched her hand "Enough of this Ember!"

"What? We can still beat her! She only took us off guard due to her Dark Pulse attack wave. One good shot of Shadow Muk's Flamethrower and it could beat her!"

"Yeah well" Vlad said he grabbed Shadow Muk's Pokeball "Return! We don't need you fainted yet!"

Shadow Muk returned to it's Pokeball as Vlad turned to her muttering to her ears "A certain Phantom is on his way here thanks to Venomica sending him over here from her mirror. It's not time for us to confront both of them at once."
"Oh right!" Ember said.

Hotaru prepared herself adjusting her grip on her Bone Staff "You three are nearly finished, and now here I come to defeat you three!"

She was about to charge in when Vlad pulled out a white flag "Truce! I say Truce, Hotarumon 14!"

Hotaru saw the white flag and stopped her charge knowing a white flag meant surrender at least in this battle but she kept her guard up knowing evil never played by the rules. If this was meant for her to lower her guard so they could strike her when it was lowered she wasn't going to fall for it and she addressed them "Speak your peace but do know this that I'm not lowering my guard!"

Vlad explained himself "You haven't seen the last of me, Ember and my Shadow Muk, but for now we must get going...We'll meet again Hotarumon 14 and when we do...You'll be the one to perish not us!"

Ember, and Vlad with Shadow Muk in it's Pokeball vanished leaving Hotaru baffled at what had happened. Just as her foes vanished Danny Phantom appeared from the windows of the shop Hotaru had slammed into earlier due to taking her first Flamethrower attack and right onto Hotaru's back. Hotaru collapses with Danny on her back. Danny grunts a bit bewildered at what had happened. He looks at whom he's standing on and sees that he's on the backside of a girl of somewhat.

"Eh...Where am I?" Danny asked himself "Who am I on."

"Seriously...A third ghost today?" Hotaru muttered "And if you must know you are on my back!"

Danny blushes red seeing that he was on a girl's back. He steps off of her "Oh, uh sorry miss!"

Hotaru turns to get onto her back and Danny clearly could see she was completely naked underneath all the fur and covers his eyes "Whoa! Miss! Did my collision with you do that to you?!"

Hotaru gets back up holding her bone staff "Nope! But do you want something ghost?"

Danny blinks now getting a good look at the girl whom was getting ready to fight him if she needed to. He took one good look at the road and businesses in the area, one thing was certain he wasn't in Danvile but did this girl have something to do with the encounter...He figured that she did somehow "Did you send Queen Venomica onto me?"

Hotaru blinks confused "Queen Venomica?!"

Ashley at hearing the name looked around as if expecting the Succubus Naga Queen to be lurking around the corners.

"From your question miss, you seem to know who she is!"

Hotaru did "The Succubus Demon Queen? I do know who she is"

"Then you sent her onto me!" Danny said charging at her.

Hotaru watches him seeing that this ghost boy was good. Her aura seeking eyes detected that much "Wait, I didn't do that!"

Danny punches out at her but she backs up lifting up her hands. He punches her again but she blocks it "Listen to me! I didn't do what you said I did!"

"Then explain the damage!" Danny shouted "To this area!'

Hotaru saw that he was losing breathe and his nerves were shutting down. Then she saw the bite mark in Danny Phantom's chest. This could only mean one thing, he had been bitten by Queen Venomica. Hotaru sidesteps his punch but needed to defend herself she gripped her staff and swung at him. He went intangible and it passed right through him harmlessly then he blasted her in the chest sending her crashing onto the ground. He then comes at her but she rolls onto her back, flips out three other blasts but gathers up another Dark Pulse attack then hurls it at him. Danny tries to go intangible once more but the blast hits him sending him to the ground painfully. It was then his transformation wore off thanks to the venom of Venomica and the damage he sustained. Hotaru gets up and rushes towards him with Danny Fenton muttering "Oh great! She's coming to finish me."

He braces himself but Hotaru stood over him "Lay still! Ashley, Darnel this boy needs help!"

Ashley and Darnel broke cover racing towards the boy seeing the bite wound. Ashley and Darnel would help Danny up.

"What's going on? Why are you two helping her?"

"She's our friend" Ashley said "And she's not responsible for this mess, rather she fought against two other ghost and a smelly poisonous creature. Come on let's get you to my house so we can get you healed up."

Danny made no further arguments with Hotaru following behind them. Once at Ashley's house, Hotaru turned to Danny raising her Rototrix "Rototrix...Remove Queen Venomica's venom from his body."

"Will do!" came a voice.

Danny blinks seeing a small yellow ghost like thing come out of the Rototrix and float around him seemingly remove the venom from his body before returning to Hotaru's Rototrix. Danny blinks "Sorry miss...uh...If you weren't the one that sent Venomica onto me, then who are you?"

There was a bright flash of white light as Hotaru returned to her normal human self "The name is Hotaru Hatsumi!"

Danny blinks seeing that the girl whom was that creature before was a normal human girl one year younger than he was as Hotaru asked him "Who are you?"

"I'm Danny Fenton" Danny replied he looked around the room "Where am I?"

"You're in my home recovering from your injuries from Queen Venomica" Ashley told him "I'm Ashley" she turned to Darnel "and this is Darnel."

"Hey there!" Darnel told Danny "To be more specific you are in Manassas Virginia."

"VIRGINIA?!" Danny asked alarmed shooting upright.

"Careful" Hotaru advised Danny as he grunts leaning down a bit "Don't make sudden movements you're still recovering from your battle with Queen Venomica."

Danny decided to take Hotaru's advise "How do you know of her?"

Hotaru sighed "I only known her for at least three days. She ate me three nights ago, but I somehow escaped."

Danny blinked "So she does eat girls?"

"Afraid so" Ashley said "She did eat Hotaru, but prior to that she had eaten two other girls the night before."

Hotaru was at Danny's side "Tell me what happened."

Danny explained to her how that the night before he had fought Vlad. The same Vlad, Hotaru had fought just minutes ago had encountered. He then told her the answer of what happened to him, how he came to save his sister and friend Samantha from what he originally thought was a ghost, but turned out to be something much worse, the Demon Queen, Venomica. Danny frowned making a fist "I gave her my all, but I couldn't do a thing to her, it was as if she was immune to my ghost powers which she admitted she was but you'd think I'd deliver some sort of damage."

Hotaru sighed "So that's where she went to."

"So, what were you fighting against?" Danny inquired.

Ashley answered for Hotaru "Oh you may have heard of the first two...Vlad and Ember?"

Danny blinks looking at Hotaru "You fought both Vlad and Ember?"

"Yes" Hotaru told him "And their Shadow Pokemon they were given."

"And she beat them" Darnel added on.

"That's pretty cool!" Danny said "Beating just one of them is good but when they work together...Even worse, so beating them at the same time for the first time in your life was excellent work! Hey...What's this Shadow Pokemon about?"

Hotaru answered "Pokemon are monsters from another world, normally they don't attack people with intent to harm or kill them. Shadow Pokemon on the other hand are Pokemon whom have this darkness in their hearts which is like saying they've been completely brainwashed and will kill at their trainer's commands."

Danny looked worried "Does one look like an Egyptian coffin?"

Hotaru blinked "Egyptian Coffin? Not that I can think of, heck I don't even know all the Pokemon there are in the world."

She eyes her Rototrix "But perhaps my Rototrix has the answer."

"What do you need Hotaru?" the Rototrix asked.

"Listen to Danny here and see if you can figure out what he seen"

"right away!"

Danny explained to it what he saw in his battle. The Rototrix quickly pulled up the Pokemon in Question "Was Cofigris the Coffin Pokemon whom you saw?!"

Danny took one look at the Pokemon "YEP! That's the creature I saw it was backing up Queen Venomica!"

"That could only mean it was a Shadow Pokemon" Darnel admitted he turned to Hotaru "Hotaru...What do you think Cipher is up to?"

"Cipher?" Danny inquired.

Hotaru answered his question first before answering Darnel's "For Danny's question, Cipher is a criminal organization from another rhelm. From what I have been told they were and are the ones responsible for the Shadow Pokemon problem until this Wes and Rui people got in their way and stopped Cipher's branch in the Ore region. Even though beaten Cipher recovered and is still continuing to do their Shadow Pokemon experiment and have targeted Earth in their scheme to take over it. I Danny, am the only one along with Ashley and Darnel are the only ones preventing them from doing so. As for Darnel's question on what do I think is up to...Answer there...Nothing good."

Ashley agreed "Seeing that the two group of villains pulled a hero swap...Yeah, nothing good is coming from this outcome."

Danny looks at Hotaru extending his hand towards her "I know we just met, but it looks like we need to team up."

Hotaru accepted his hand extending her own "Right. We need to team up if we are to stop what Vlad and Cipher have in store for us."

The two shook hands. After this Danny turned to Hotaru "Question is…What are the enemy up to? I'm betting this is mostly a Vlad plan."

Hotaru turned to him "I only met this Vlad once so I wouldn't know the way he acts, but he might be the one that is behind this plan mostly...Erdos is leading Cipher and Queen Venomica while in a way she could think of this plan...I doubt she would."

Ashley agreed "especially when she wants to EAT Hotaru and this time for good. I don't expect Queen Venomica wanting to totally abandon not eating Hotaru."

"If only we had information on what the enemy is up to" Danny muttered.

Hotaru's Rototrix had picked up a transmission "Hotaru! I'm picking up a weak transmission!"

"From whom?" Hotaru asked.

"Loveria!"

Ashley humphs "Don't let it go through Hotaru! Loveria as we know works for Cipher!"

Hotaru partly agreed with her "This could be our chance...What do you say Danny?"

Danny answered "Well even if she was an enemy this Loveria person might be contacting us for information...As in she might want out of Cipher."

"Hard to imagine that" Ashley breathed out but Hotaru agreed "Alright...Rototrix let it through."

The Rototrix activated the message and Loveria's voice spoke "H-H-H-Hotaru! Can you hear me?"

Almost at once both Danny and Hotaru could hear the fear in Loveria's voice. And for once it was legitimate. The two heroes looked at each other wondering what this could be about.

Back to Show

Hearing Loveria's panicked voice cry caused Hotaru and Danny to look at each other. Hotaru decided to answer "Loveria...Let me be brief...We hear you...But due to your actions in the past we aren't going to be tricked into doing anything...So make your piece!"

Loveria's voice answered "I know what Vlad has in plan! If you want to know what he's up to...PLEASE HELP ME!"

"...Hugh?" Hotaru asked "Help you?"

"Yes," Loveria's voice spoke softly "I'm trapped in Queen Venomica's home...Forced to work as a-OUCH okay please don't whip me as hard, I'm doing as you asked!"

Both Danny and Hotaru could hear the cruel sounds of whips cracking and Loveria sobbing in pain begging for them to stop before there was a loud CRUNCH and loud sound echoed in the house causing Ashley, Darnel, Danny, and Hotaru to flinch as it was the sound of a cellphone being destroyed.

"End of transmission" The Rototrix told them.

Ashley turned to Hotaru "Hotaru...You can't trust Loveria!"

Hotaru had a feeling Loveria was somehow a slave to Queen Venomica "True, never completely trust your enemy, however Loveria really sounded scared, you heard her sobbing and panicked voice. Not even Loveria deserves to be a slave to someone, especially when that someone eats girls."

Danny agreed with Hotaru "Hotaru's right Ashley. For this to happen to someone inside Cipher, no one deserves to be a slave."

Hotaru rubbed Ashley's shoulder "Besides Loveria knows what Vlad is up to. We need to rescue her."

Ashley sighed "I don't trust her after what she done to have you nearly die to Queen Venomica before but you are right. Not even she deserves to be a slave...But we have no way in going to Queen Venomica's home!"

"And even if you do go Hotaru...Queen Venomica's people are snake demons and I'm sure Queen Venomica would've told her forces that if they spot you to capture you and hold you till she returns" Darnel warned.

"It's a risk I'm willing to take" Hotaru told them "She sounded desperate, she wants to be saved. True we might not have an idea where to go to save her but I will."

"We will don't you mean?" Danny inquired putting his hand onto Hotaru's shoulder, Hotaru blinked "You'll help me?"

"Of course" Danny told her "Heroes gotta stick together! We shook hands on this. We gotta stop Vlad's plan, but not knowing what he's up to is going to be difficult now that we're in one state."

Hotaru smiled "Thank you, but aren't you worried that you wouldn't be effective on QueenVenomica's people?"

Danny shook his head yes "Yes, but you shouldn't have to do this alone ether. Besides I'm pretty sure I could harm Queen Venomica's subjects to some extent. Queen Venomica is a different story all together though. Let's rescue Loveria together."

Hotaru nods agreeing "Right."

"Okay then" Ashley sighed "So how are you two going to Queen Venomica's domain?"

Hotaru scratched her head then snapped "Latias and Latios!"

Danny smirked liking the idea "Oh yeah! They can go through dimensions! They were the ones that got you the Rototrix right?"

Hotaru nodded smiling "Yep! They were!"

"Are you sure you want to ask them for help?" Ashley inquired.

Hotaru looked at her as Ashley continued her question "I mean remember what happened to you last time Hotaru...You blacked out and nearly forgot everything they've told you."

"You have a point there Ashley" Hotaru said with a sweat drop hidden behind her head "But unless Danny here has something that could lead us to the Demon world-"

"Which I don't...I do have a device but it traps ghosts...Might not work for us that way." Danny replied.

"Preciously my point" Hotaru said "So Latias and Latios should be able to help us."

"Do you have a way of summoning them?" Darnel asked.

Hotaru held up a small flute "Yes, and they called it the Eon Flute."

"When did you get that?" Ashley inquired "Darnel and I haven't seen that before."

"That's because they gave it to me last night..." Hotaru said blushing red "While I was in the shower!"

Flashback

Hotaru was indeed taking a hot shower. She was letting the hot water rinse off her body humming in it. After an evening battling Venomica and Shadow Hydrigeon a nice shower was always rewarding to her. Plus it allowed her to remove the stench that she oddly still had from ending up in Queen Venomica's mouth. While she was showering she didn't notice a small rainbow like portal opening up from behind her and then something shot out of the portals, that something was Latias and Latios only they didn't look like their normal selves...Rather they looked human. Latias was a naked girl and Hotaru didn't mind that but Latios being a naked boy...Now that scared her and Hotaru screamed with surprise nearly wetting herself in the shower. She turned towards her visitors whom spoke to her telepathically with Latias speaking first.

Sorry to drop by unannounced but brother and I wanted to give you something to be able to call upon us for ether help or transportation.

"Swell" Hotaru muttered with her heart racing still almost to a point where she was thinking she was suffering from a heart attack "But next time you decide to visit me...Don't show up in my shower! Especially with your brother.

Why shouldn't I be staying back? Latios asked.

There was banging sounding at Hotaru's door as Hotaru's father at hearing his daughter's scream rushed upstairs, gun in his hands ready to save his daughter from a possible rapist or worse murderor. He bangs on the locked door "Hotaru? Sweetie! Are you okay!"

"Yeah daddy!" Hotaru said

"What were you screaming at?"

Hotaru looked at the human forms of Latias and Latios whom were confused at this well Latios was. Oh boy, for Hotaru she was wondering how to best calm down the situation...If her father wanted to knock down the door and seen a girl in Latias with Hotaru that would be fine, but a boy with the two girls...Now that was a problem and she knew it. Hotaru pretended that she had slipped on a piece of soap even laying on the floor of her tub with a piece of soap on the ground "Sorry, I just slipped daddy and it took me by surprise. I'm fine."

"Okay then" Hotaru's father said buying it.

He would leave the area leaving Hotaru sighing while slowly getting onto all fours then eventually her two feet, turned to Latias and Latios waiting for signs her father wouldn't be outside the bathroom listening. Once she was certain he was far away she spoke to Latios "You're lucky I came up with that excuse. If I had told him the truth...Well you might be on the business end of a gun."

Normal human parent reaction to seeing a boy with their daughter?

"Sadly so. Fathers tend to be protective of their daughters...Too protective at times."

My bad! Latios told her "Won't happen again."

"Please make sure that doesn't" Hotaru told the two "Or at least if that's going to happen...Do make sure none of my parents are home...So what is it that you want to give me?

Latias reached behind her back and retrieved a small flute giving it to Hotaru We want to give you this...The Eon Flute. Upon hearing this, my brother or I will respond immediately and come to you for any type of assistance. May it be for hard battles, training purposes or help getting to a place. Please use it when you really need it.

"Will do" Hotaru responded accepting the Eon Flute.

End of Flashback

"That is some kind of powerful flute" Danny whistled "Just imagine what you can unleash upon your enemies if you can summon both of those legendaries in battle to fight alongside you."

Danny then smirked "Talk about overkill!"

"I won't ask them for their help for the majority of my battles" Hotaru told him "But there are some exceptions like maybe in the case against more powerful legendary Shadow Pokemon if there are any strong Legendary Shadow Pokemon."

Hotaru held the flute in her hands turning to Danny "What do you say Danny? Shall we summon them?"

Danny nodded "You bet! We've gotta save Loveria!"

"That we will and discover what Vlad is planning!"

The two go out with Hotaru turning to Ashley and Darnel "While Danny and I are going to save Loveria, I will ask you two to try to do, please watch out for Shadow Pokemon."

"Will do" was the response from Hotaru's friends.

Hotaru and Danny rush of Ashley's house and once in the clearing Hotaru plays the Eon Flute. In mere seconds both Latias and Latios in their Pokemon forms arrived looking at Hotaru and Danny.

Hotaru? Latias inquired "Why have you summoned us?

Hotaru answered "Loveria...We got a call from her, Danny here and I believe she could be a slave to Venomica, a Succubus Naga Queen. She asked us to help her and we have no way in going to Venomica's place...Could you take us there?"

Latias and I can but are you sure? Loveria works for Cipher!

"True but the key word is worked for" Danny told the two Legendaries "For I believe that she might quit and become a good person from what we could get out of the message."

Alright we'll help then Latias told them But Hotaru...You might want to use a Pokemon that can withstand heat. Where we are going, you'll need heat resistance...Queen Venomica's home is very hot and isn't a place humans can survive for long unless the Queen herself gives them permission to do so.

Hotaru took this chance activating her Rototrix "Danny you might want to do you're thing too."

Danny nodded "right but let me see how this Rototrix of yours works! Please go first!"

Hotaru smiled "Right!"

Hotaru turned it to a Pokemon and saw it had wings dragon wings and smirked "Let's go with this thing!"

She slaps her Rototrix down, in a flash of bright light Hotaru became naked causing Danny to blush seeing naked girl that was his ally for this mission and the mission after, Hotaru's skin turns light green scale like in most areas except for the upper leg areas and the souls of her feet. She has red Flygon eyes, sprouts Flygon's Dragon wings which are light green and red near the edge, then she grows a tail which is light green and green with the last part of it being light green with red edgings. She loses two fingers on each hand as they became sharp dragon claws. When the light show ended Hotaru was "Flygon!"

Latios giggled Well we did say go for something that resist heat and a Ground/Dragon Type like Flygon is just that and you can survive in Queen Venomica's home for nearly forever if you wanted to, no time limit!

Danny looked at Hotaru "Not bad! You look great Hotaru, now watch me...I'm going ghost!"

There was a faint circle that came from Danny's stomach and made it's way up and down his body, he gained white ghost like hair, and green eyes as well as Danny Phantom's uniform. Once done, Danny turned to Hotaru "Ready?"

"Ready!" Hotaru said "I'm getting on Latias, you get on Latios!"

"Sweet!" Danny said.

The two hop onto Latias and Latios and the two Dragons flew into the air and prepared to open a portal with Danny excited he had never taken a ride on a dragon and this was a first for him "Oh boy! I'm actually riding a dragon! Tucker and Sam are going to be jealous! But ready Hotaru?"

"Yep!" Hotaru responded.

Danny then gave out the command "Then let us two Dragon Knight Rider heroes begin the rescue mission! Latios away!"

Latios giggled liking Danny As you wish...Latias...Try to keep up!

Latios sped up with Hotaru looking at Latias aiding her on "You aren't going to let your brother show the two of us in a race now are you?"

Nope! Latias replied giggling happily then she called to her brother You want a race brother you get one! Hold on Tight, Hotaru!

Hotaru held onto Latias as she sped off racing her brother while both opened up a portal to get to Venomica's home.

In Danvile Wisconsin, Erdos, Queen Venomica, Vlad, and Ember had remerged. Vlad was bit ticked off that Hotaru had the easier time with him and Ember while in Erdos's words Venomica clearly could've won against Danny by herself but he aided her anyway. Still Vlad congratulated her "Good work Venomica!"

"Wasssn't anything ssspecial" Queen Venomica yawned "He wasss too boring to me. At least Hotarumon 14 putsss up a fight."

"That she does" Ember said rubbing her swollen neck "I'm gonna be swollen for a week now."

Erdos turned to Venomica "How is Loveria doing?"

Venomica smirked "Lassst I heard she made contact with Hotaru asssking to be ressscued."

Vlad blinked "that wasn't part of the plan!"

"True" Erdos told him "But it gives us more time to build up our armies. The more we delay our heroes from the truth the bigger our armies can become."

"Oh" Vlad said getting it "Then it's a good idea to do this! Never mind."

"Alwaysss add sssomething onto the plan Vlad...You have a good ssstragey in mind but there isss time for certain changesss in the plan. Little does Loveria know that I allowed the transssmisssion to go through to Hotaru before informing my guards to beat her. We want Hotarumon 14 and maybe Danny Phantom to go save her if they can."

Vlad smirked "Oh yeah. If Danny could do nothing to you then he's not going to like taking your tribe on."

"We do have ghossstsss there too though" Venomica told Vlad "Ghossstsss that will never be able to help usss out in their attempt to save Loveria."

Vlad sighed "Well there has to be some sacrifice on our side right?"

"Indeed" Queen Venomica said.

"In the meantime" Erdos said "We shall begin our army, I'll even supervise training to Cipher Pion soldiers whom will help in that eventual world take over invasion army."

The villains had a game plan with Queen Venomica having the feeling that Hotaru and Danny were taking her bait.
