Flirting With a Grim Disaster
3rdP.O.V
Amity Park Mall. Sam is sitting at a table at the food court, looking bored / annoyed. Tucker holds up his PDA to her face, inserting a cartridge.
"And this cartridge makes my PDA a GPS. And this chip here makes the GPS a GBA. And ... I'm boring you, aren't I?"
"You're KILLING me! Why aren't we hanging out with Danny today?" Sam retorts.
"He said he was busy." [Valerie and Star sit down at the table next to them.] "Hey Valerie." [Disdainfully] "Star."
[Star Disdainfully replied with the same tone] "Foley."
[Valerie Disdainfully said to Sam] "Manson."
Sam uninterested "Whatever."
"Where's your loser boyfriend Danny?" Star asked Sam.
Sam replied in a loud voice "He's not my boyfriend!"
[Valerie Simultaneously said in a loud voice] "He's not her boyfriend!"
Sam & Valerie Getting into each other's face. "And he's not a loser!" said Sam.
"Umm ... ladies? Another good looking guy right here? [He wiggles his eyebrows. And getting ignored] And people wonder why I love technology. [His PDA goes static.] Sweetie? Are you okay?"
"So ... where is Danny anyway?" Valerie inquired.
"Not that it's any of your business, Valerie, but ... he said he was busy." Sam said disdainfully.
Danny's P.O.V
Danny Phantom crashes on Sam and Tucker's table. People run away screaming.
[floating above the food court] "Are you mad, child? Picking a fight with me in my upgraded form?"
"You upgraded to a mullet?" He fires some ectoblasts at Technus, who dodges and then lifts up several phones and PDAs to use as a shield. Danny jumps up and pushes himself off another table into the air, flipping it and dumping food all over Valerie.
[Valerie Screams and wipes food from her eyes, then takes off her backpack. Books fall out.] "Argh, that's right ... Dad took my ghost-hunting gear and locked it in his lab."
Technus fires an ectoblast, knocking Valerie off her feet.
Danny looks down at Valerie and turns to Technus "I am gonna break you in half!" [He charges at Technus blasting him into computer code]
"Temper, child, temper." Technus Reforms from a stream of computer code and teleports behind. "There's that emotion of yours again." Technus grabs Danny by the throat "And emotion, whether you know it or not, [Shocks Danny to the ground, knocking over a display of pink boxes] is your greatest weakness."
[Technus wipes his hands and flies as a stream of code into Valerie's phone, face reforming on the screen of Valerie's phone. Valerie, covered in food, making her way through the crowd of people]
Valerie in a sour mood. "Move it! Get out away!" [Stands shocked at the sight of Danny Fenton laying dazed among the boxes] "Oh, hi. Didn't expect to see you here."
"Uh, didn't expect to be here."
Valerie gazes romantically at Danny.
"Oh I'm gonna hurl" Sam noticing the gaze.
Technus, whose face appears on Valerie's phone. "Perfect! Rage! Desire! Weakness I can use against him." (Laughs)
Next day school trip at Axion Labs with a white banner that reads, "NOW PART OF VLADCO".
Mr. Falluca lead the student inside Axion labs. "Well, class. It was very kind of Mr. Gray to give us a tour of Axion Labs."
Mr. Gray next to him. "My pleasure, Mr. Falluca. Shields down, please."
Mechanical doors shutting shown its ghost shields and opening.
Technus, smiling evilly. The phone turns off. Valerie walking her way through the line of teens. Mr. Gray puts his hand on Danny's shoulder.
"Danny, could you hold up for a minute?"
Danny gives a confuse look.
Mr. Falluca, Sam, Tucker, and other students walking down the lab.
Tucker excitedly says "Cool! This is the X-23 booster rocket! Capable of launching a person into space in less than two minutes! (turning and walking a few steps toward something looming) And this is part of the Cybertron main computer. It's the hub that leads to the actual computer processing unit which floats in space."
"Why would they put it in space?" Sam asked in curiosity.
"For safety. Sam, a computer that powerful could be used to control every other computer in the world. We can't just let anybody get to it."
Bored by Tucker (again), Valerie wanders off from the others. Just as Valerie enters a smaller side room, Technus re-activates her phone, jumps into the electronic door control, and uses it to lock Valerie inside that room, out of sight of everyone else. "Huh?" (door slams down behind her.) "Hey!"
Technus jumps into the hub that Tucker continues to bore all the other students besides Sam about.
Tucker keeps informing them. "That's why the only access to the main computer is through this hub, after a 10,000 digit security code."
"And you know this why?" Sam ask.
"Sam, I'm a techno-geek. What do you think I do all night on the internet, math homework?"
Mr. Falluca interjects. "I had always assumed so. Perhaps I need to assign more."
Danny P.O.V
Damon still talking to Danny outside the shielded lab.
"Son, are you OK? You seem nervous, son."
"Well, uh, kinda."
"You seem like a nice kid. And I know my daughter likes you."
"Just do me a favor, one thing." ( Damon bends down to put his huge hand around Danny's shoulders) "Keep your family's ghost-fighting weirdness away from my daughter, hmmm?"
A portrait of Vlad Masters above Danny that he looks at, labeled "Our Boss" he reads out loud then scoffs at. Danny's ghost sense goes off as soon as Valerie's dad leaves him alone.
A hole appears in the ceiling in the lab with the hub and the X-23, and Valerie's suit and hoverboard comes through. It begins shooting around the room, destroying some equipment but not harming any of the people or the hub unit.
"Everybody! Single file! Run!" Mr. Falluca shouts to the students.
Everyone scatters. The suit flies into view and blasts the place where Mr. Falluca stood. Danny takes the opportunity to dodge into another small room, change, and come out as Danny Phantom. Then just as Danny flies off to confront what he thinks is Valerie in her suit, the suit took off accomplishing its objective destroying part of the lab. Valerie's dad comes back into the lab right behind where Danny Phantom and gasps. Danny taking off wile Mr. Gray is distracted.
Valerie's Dad, who walks around looking at the wreckage, ending up just outside the door that trapped Valerie as it opens up and Valerie comes out.
Valerie surprised at what she sees. "Wow! What happened here?" (Damon grabs her wrist) "Daddy!"
Technus P.O.V
In the cyberspace inside the hub computer.
"A 10,000 codex firewall, eh? Please!" (mockingly) (enters a few digits and fails) "Aaaa! This could take a while. And that ghost child could be snooping around here at any time, unless I continue distracting him." (opens a virtual window showing Valerie) "And the girl will be the key!"
Valerie P.O.V
In the Gray resident the dumpy rooming house where the Grays still live and then to its cluttered, cobwebbed basement laundry area.
"I tell you, it wasn't me Dad!"
"Well, it was your suit! So what am I supposed to think?"
"That somebody took it? That I'm telling the truth? How about that?!" (storms off)
Valerie's going to her room. She enters and flops down on the bed. Then she begins thinking aloud.
"It wasn't me. So who—" (her computer beeps)
The computer has an instant messaging program running, showing a message from D. FENTON reading "VAL. R U OKAY?" Valerie reads the message aloud.
"Danny?!" (Valerie smiles joyfully and talks to herself as she types in a reply) "I'm fine. Don't know what happened, but, yeah."
Danny P.O.V
Danny at his own computer. He's online using something like Skype to talk to Sam and Tucker, visible in two different windows.
"Doesn't it seem weird to you at all? I mean, usually, she's all just WHERE'S THE GHOST! I FIND THAT GHOST I'M GONNA WASTE IT! But she didn't say a word."
"She spoke with her gun, Danny. Remember?" Sam tells Danny
Tucker looking at his PDA (weird noises coming from his PDA)
A third window appears, the same messaging program Valerie is using. An avatar with Valerie's face is above the text window, and her handle is GHOSTH8R—"ghost hater" for the non-computer-geeks.
GHOSTH8R
R U OKAY?
Tucker asks "What's that?" (they not only heard Danny but saw him smile, courtesy of his webcam.) "Is that from Valerie?" Sam asks.
Angela Foley is heard in the background of Tucker's window. "Tucker! Are you online again!?"
Tucker says goodbye and signs off, and then Danny closes both Sam's and Tucker's windows.
(Danny talking to himself as he types in his reply) "I'm fine, but I don't know what to think. How about you?"
A short montage, from Danny's room, to the Fenton Works under a rising full moon, and on to the Fenton works under a rising sun. In other word the next day.
Outside of Casper High as the bell rings. Students are gathered outside waiting to enter. Tucker and Sam are right in front of the doors, facing Danny down the steps. Danny yawning, then looking up to Tucker and Sam.
"Long night?" Tucker asks.
"Of flirting with disaster?" Sam says annoyed.
"You should really give her a chance, Sam. I know she wants to waste Danny Phantom, but did you know she's a ninth-degree black belt? That her favorite fruit is kumquat because it's a funny word?"
"No, Danny, I didn't, because I never can get past the "waste Danny Phantom" part!" Sam getting irritated at Danny's cluelessness.
Tucker just chuckles knowing what really bothering Sam.
Valerie inside the school walking with and talking to Star.
"Do you know that he wants to be an astronaut? That he bowls with a 150 average?" Valerie say all giddily.
"No, all I know is that his family is a bunch of ghost-hunting freaks." (Just as Star said that, she comes up on Danny.) "I'm sorry, but by "freak" I mean... Nah, I mean it! See ya, Val!" (walks onward) "See ya, freak!"
"Ah, don't mind her."
"Her? W-was there another girl with you? I hadn't noticed."
"Pretty cheesy, Neil Armstrong. You got lunch plans?"
Tucker and Sam, who've been watching and listening.
"Is he nuts?" Sam ask being jealous is not her.
"Ah, don't worry, Sam. This is the puppy love stuff. He'll come to his senses in no time. Just watch." Tucker trying to reassure her.
"Oh, I was planning to." (Sam Brings up large binoculars)
3RD. P.O.V
montage of romantic scenes, including:
Sharing fries at a late-night diner in the lenses of Sam's binoculars—with Technus watching and smirking. Technus makes it even more romantic by killing the lights and a server putting candles on their table.
At a baseball game, being put on the jumbotron as a couple, and winning tickets to...
A carnival, where they're on a Ferris wheel when it stops with them together near the top. Technus manipulates the lights in the buildings facing them to spell out "DF+VG." End montage through Sam's binoculars with Valerie leaning into Danny with sort of a "let's get a room" look.
"And now we know why. It's picking up Technus. Something in this new upgrade is making my PDA all wonky."
"Like at the mall. And the lab. And the Ferris wheel. He's pushing Danny and Valerie together!" Sam says jealously.
(Tucker laughing)
"If you're done, we have to tell Danny." Sam getting annoyed at Tucker
(Tucker still laughing) "You want to tell Danny that Technus is playing matchmaker? How do you think he's going to react to that?"
Danny P.O.V
Danny leaning against a tree laughing as Tucker looks on, smiling, and Sam looks on, not smiling.
"You done yet?" Sam says in exasperated.
"No." ( Danny falls back against the tree and laughs some more) "Okay now, I'm done. You're trying to tell me that Technus is trying to hook me up? C'mon! Technus hates emotions."
"And hello! He's using yours against you?"
"Dim lights? Stalled Ferris wheels? You think the universe wants you to be together?" Tucker says in playfully mocking tone.
"Well, maybe." (Valerie is watching and listening from behind Danny at this point, looking surprised.) "But... I don't know... I might."
Sam, and then Valerie, both suck in their breath with shock.
"Uh, really? Because Tech—"
A brief shot of Valerie shows that Tucker interrupted himself because he spotted her behind Danny.
"Uh, tech-nically because we just want you to be happy. (painfully cheerful) If you like her, we'll just have to make space for her at our table." Sam say begrudgingly.
Sam flutters one lower eyelid, either a signal to Valerie or a nervous tic like that teacher I helped drive nuts.
(Danny happily) "And speaking of Valerie, I'm supposed to meet her before class."
Danny turns around and walks away. But Valerie has quietly moved around him behind the fall foliage. She emerges from the red-and-brown shrubbery next to Sam and asks a question.
Valerie askes Sam "Excuse me, but did you mean that?"
"Well, uh, uh... (squinting with effort and/or pain) Yeah, sure! If Danny likes you and you like him, then the least we can do is give you a chance."
Valerie immediately hugs Sam.
(Sam in a sotto voce) "Human contact... crushing... Goth indifference."
Danny, walking out of the trees toward the school is still laughing a little bit.
"Technus as matchmaker! Please!"
Then he hears branches breaking behind him. He looks around, but...
(uncertainly) "It's... nothing." (more confidently) "She was probably being paranoid!"
Danny turns and sees—and hears the distinctive digital chatter of Technus infecting something electronic. And Valerie's red suit appears.
"But it doesn't mean she's not right. Valerie's not in there, is she."
(Technus actually talking to Danny through the suit he's controlling) "No. She's right over there, in full view."
Technus actually makes the suit point down to Valerie, walking below on the sidewalk to school, just like Danny. Valerie spots Danny, smiles and waves. Danny smiles and waves back. Then:
(suit taking aim) "You should run now."
Danny runs, passing close by Valerie.
"Hey, Danny. Sam and I just had the greatest conversation and... (Her suit and board streak right by her) That's my suit! And it's after Danny! Runs to the side and empties out her backpack). Oh, please, please let there be something I can use!"
Valerie picks up a fallen branch and sets out. Meanwhile, Danny is running and talking over his shoulder to Technus.
"You were pushing Valerie and me together!"
"You're welcome!" (Technus takes aim and starts firing.)
Danny dodges around while Technus fires four shots, but none of them are even near misses. As Danny stops and starts to go ghost, Technus stops to chide him.
(gun raised up to the sky in one hand and other hand holding out a scolding finger) "Uh-uh-uh, careful! Secret identity, remember? (indicates a surveillance camera on the school building. Danny cancels his transformation.) I wonder who'll miss you the more. The angry ghost hunter? Or the frustrated little goth girl who can't admit her feelings?"
"Whadya—"
"Ah, well, nothing you need to worry about now, because you are through interfering with my plan." (takes aim)
"Yes! Yes! (sighting laser focuses on Danny) So long Child!"
A milk carton sails through the air and hits the suit, distracting Technus. Valerie leaps into the air, than bats the suit off the board with her branch, then to knock the suit off the board.
"Danny! Run!" Valerie screams
"But..."
The suit crashes down between them.
"Just run!"
"Oh, I'm running! Running to get help!"
Squaring off against her suit on the ground, Val runs toward the suit, pole-vaults on the branch, and lands a foot right in the faceplate.
"Wow! She really is a ninth-degree black belt! He better not forget their anniversary." Tucker says playfully.
Danny hops into a dumpster, transforms, and flies out covered with garbage. He phases out to get rid of most of it, which falls back into the dumpster.
Valerie is running away and dodging fire. She upends a picnic table to use as a shield, but Technus begins shooting it away piece by piece. She takes out her keys and uses them as shuriken's during a flying leap. They all hit and drive into the chest—but there's no heart of any kind in the suit or in Technus. But the impact does distract Technus for a moment.
"Oh, great! Now I'm doomed and I can't get back into my house!"
Technus' next bolt knocks down Valerie. Technus moves the suit closer for an apparent killing shot, but Danny arrives and departs with the suit, slamming it into a clock tower. Technus knocks Danny back into another building, giving him time to call the board back to the suit. Danny lands, and as the suit approaches.
"Valerie's not in there. (After he says this, Valerie crawls out from cover) Which means I'm not holding back!"
As Valerie watches, Danny blows the hoverboard to pieces from under the suit. The suit lands standing up. Danny shoots the gun arm off the suit, then the opposite foot. The suit manages to remain standing.
"Say goodbye, punk!" Danny says trying to imitate Walker.
Danny blasts a massive hole through the chest, leaving only a few sparking wires. Then the suit falls on its face. Danny pauses to admire his work, and then notices a countdown. He takes off just in time to avoid the explosion as the suit blows up.
(Technus in cyberspace) "Aha! Demoralized! Now my plan can go forward!"
The bell rings.
"Uh, I gotta go." (flies off)
Valerie P.O.V
(reaching inside the still-smoking suit) "You were trying to do that to me! That could have been me! But... it... wasn't... (looks up at the surveillance camera) And I now can prove it!"
Monitor at Axion labs, where Valerie is talking with her father Damon.
(Damon pointing at the screen) "That could have been you!"
"No! Because it never was me!"
"I'm sorry I didn't believe you. (putting his hand on her shoulder) Y-you did do a good job of protecting your friend. I guess I can let it go for this time."
"You're only saying that because the suit's destroyed." (pan over the wreckage of the suit)
"Bingo." Damon says happily.
Danny P.O.V
At Fenton Works as Tucker speaks. He's in Danny's room with Danny and Sam.
"So Technus was behind the attack during the tour. Which means probably trying to crack the code and get into the main computer in space."
"Which he could use to control every computer in the world!" Sam says.
"You only know that because I told you that." Tucker reproaches Sam.
"You should have seen Valerie's face. I'm sure she thinks I was trying to waste her."
"But you weren't!" Sam tries to reassures Danny.
"It doesn't matter! If I want to ask Valerie out, I'm gonna have to never tell her I'm Danny Phantom. But first (getting off his bed) I'm gonna get rid of that virus called Technus! Once and for all!"
Jack Fenton fills the door Danny was about to go out through.
"Danny! The word on the street is you got yourself a girlfriend! ( Jack gives his son what he thinks is a friendly elbow nudge.) Can you two leave so I can have a totally awkward father-son chat."
Sam & Tucker say at the same time
"Gone and gone!" (as they run out of the room at top speed.)
Danny and his dad sitting at the kitchen table with bowls of Ice cream which by the stripes on the container was drawn by someone who likes Dryers.
"Does it have to be awkward?" Danny hoping against hope.
"Yup. I'm going to give you some fatherly advice. Then, I'm going to say something that'll make you cringe and run out of the room in embarrassment."
"Check. Advice first?" Danny pleaded.
"All right. If you really like this girl, Danny, you would let her know. Give her something like this." (Puts golden ring with a blue-green stone on the table.)
"A class ring?" Danny asks in confusion.
"A girlfriend's not a girlfriend until you give her a class ring, Danny. It also says I think you could be the girl I fight ghosts with. Just like it was with your mom and me. I know how appropriate that would be for the two of you. "
(Danny laughs) "You'd be surprised. (holds up ring) I can give her this?" thinking of Valerie.
"Only if she's special. I'm sure Sam will love it. (Laughs nervously) Of course if it's not! You guys are just friends. I even had it engraved." Jack says not knowing what his son is thinking or of who.
"You see, that's the embarrassing part. (knowing what he just did) Now, if you'll be excuse me, it's time for pie." (after Danny leaves pondering what his father just revealed)
Danny sees that the ring is engraved inside "SaM". Danny going wide eyes realizing the feelings of Sam.
" Does Sam really like me or its just me. And know I also like Valerie. What am I going to do."
Night at the Axion building, Danny, Sam, and Tucker a (hopefully) safe distance outside.
"Here." (drops some things in Sam's hand.)
"The Fenton Phones?" Sam asks.
"Once Technus leaves here, let me know. (Starts to go toward Axion, then turns back.) Oh, hold this. (A single chime as he puts the ring in Sam's hand.) just give me time to figure out my feeling."
Danny turns invisible as he flies off to Axion.
"He really isn't clueless anymore, isn't he." Tucker says while Sam mouth was opened wide.
(Examining the ring upside down) "Who the heck is "Wes"?"
Danny, still invisible, comes upon Valerie having her own talk over ice cream with her own father. Same brand and flavor, too.
"This isn't going to be one of those awkward father-daughter conversations, is it?" Valerie ask hopefully.
"Probably. You really risked your neck to save that Fenton kid." Demon says to her daughter.
"Yeah. I like him a lot. Maybe even enough to give up ghost hunting. But I also notice that Sam like him too." Not knowing that Danny was their listening in while in his ghost form being invisible.
(Sam over the Fenton phones) "Clueless One, this is Goth One, over."
Danny whooshes out of the room.
(now flying in a different part of the building) "Goth One, this is Clueless One. Why am I "Clueless One"?"
(Tucker Overheard from Sam's Fenton Phone) "Tell him!"
"Shut it!" Sam yells at tucker. "Because it took you long enough to figured out my feeling, and its to late to change the call signs." Sam says embarrass while her face turning red.
"So buddy what made you realize the situation." Tucker ask wondering how he became aware of Sam feeling.
"It was my dad who made me realize. And this is something I don't want to discuss over the phones or the place."
Danny flies into the area where the X-23 booster rocket is, near the wreckage of Valerie's suit and hoverboard.
"I'm in. (grabs the X-23) And from the looks of the computer, Technus is still in there."
Sound of a heavy door opening.
(Valerie pointing accusingly) "You!"
Valerie's dad is right behind her.
(Danny caught with the X23 in both hand) "Oh, darn it."
Technus in cyberspace
"Ten, nine, eight..."
Back to the real world inside the lab.
"Get away from that!" Demon yells at phantom.
(Technus in cyberspace) "What is that racket? Security camera fourteen! Visual!"
Shot of a camera around to scan its field of view. back to Technus' virtual screen showing an angry Valerie behind her angry dad who's about to fire an angry-looking energy weapon.
(after dodging Damon's first shot) "There's an evil ghost in there trying to take control of your computer satellite!"
"Yeah! And we're looking' at him!" Valerie proclaims.
"Can you expect us to believe you?!" Demon says.
"No! I need more time!" Technus trying to think of a plan.
On Technus' screen, he watches Valerie hold up the biggest part of her destroyed suit, saying:
"See this, ghost? They think they can do whatever they want. But somebody has to stop them."
"Excellent idea!" Technus getting a eureka moment.
Technus channels his powers into a beam from the security camera that hits Valerie. Then he creates a new much more cyberpunk suit around her.
"Oh, yeah! This is gonna be good!" Valerie not wondering how she got the new suit.
"Two! One! And done! Goodbye computer in Amity Park! Hello fancy satellite in space!"
(Skull appearing on his PDA screen) "Uh, oh. Baby's got a headache." Tucker says while caressing his PDA.
Technus takes over the satellite, and the dome at the end becomes his new head.
Inside computer room at Axion, Technus uses the PA system and screens to gloat at Danny.
"It's over, child! You can't stop me now!"
"We'll see about that!"
Danny puts on the X-23 and the helmet from the spacesuit near it. He activates the X-23, turns insubstantial, and flies out of the building without leaving a hole.
Valerie deploys her new board which kind of looks like a ghost with devil's horns from below, and rises.
(Damon from below) "Valerie! Get outta that suit!"
"I will! As soon as I get that ghost!"
Danny flying high above.
"Whoaaaa! Hey! I'm an astronaut!"
Valerie flies out from under the big satellite dish to intercept Danny.
Sam calls to Danny. "Uh, Danny."
(Danny doing a loop) "Wahoohoohoo!"
"Danny, come in. Stay alert! You have company!"
"Company? What kind of company." (Energy bolt narrowly misses.)
"It's your girlfriend."
"She's not my girlfriend until I talk with you and her."
Tucker asks "What is this? 1955?"
Danny turns the jets off. Valerie shoots past him, then loses control of her board turning back.
Technus begins taking over computers all over the world, starting in New York City, London and Japan. Fans of Japanese monster movies will recognize Osaka Castle and a four-headed version of Ghidorah with Technus faces.
Danny fires blasts at the satellite, but they just reflect off. Valerie catches him between the forks of her sled and then activates a sort of reverse Jacob's ladder which marches down to shock Danny. He seems to be helpless, but is able to charge up his hands and zap Valerie unconscious. She drifts off into space.
Watching her between that are hands still charged up from what he did to Valerie, we might get the impression that Danny has killed her, and that he thinks he has. But..
With a grim look on his face, Danny switches the jets back on. He flies to the satellite which is casting chaos down to the Earth as Technus does his maniacal laugh shtick. Then Danny stops, sets the X-23 to overload, and fires up again, and flies into Technus' mouth. Technus swallows—and then blows up.
Down on Earth, Technus' chaos monsters become lifeless, and people cheer.
Danny has gone insubstantial and invisible, and, finding Valerie is not dead, hitches an invisible ride on her board back to Earth.
Sam back on earth sometime later.
"Here you go" (giving the ring to Danny)
"You sure about this?" Tucker ask her for confirmation.
"Well, she said she'd give up ghost hunting. For me! Besides, I like you and I like her, and both likes me back. This Isn't it that simple?
Tucker leave Danny at the picnic table outside the school.
Sam seeing Valerie coming over.
Sitting at the table, Danny feels a hand on his shoulder.
Valerie calls out to Danny.
"Danny."
"Wow. (rising to face her.) I-I'm glad you're here. I, uh, wanted to speak with both of you."
Tucker quietly leaves at this point. Sam stays, staring. Wondering how will this turn up.
"Both of us" she ask looking at Sam.
"Yes the fact is that I know that you and Sam like me, Let me start by telling you that I know that you're the red Huntress."
"How you know since when?" Valerie says in a panic.
"Since day one. And by what you said to me and Sam when we were you know."
"I do remember now you two were making out.) gives a loud sigh.
"And there's something else I got to tell you."
"No Danny don't." Sam getting worried knowing what his going to spill.
" Sorry Sam but she must know. After all she is involved in this."
"What are talking about." Valerie getting confuse.
"Valerie you are the person that loves me and hates me at the same time."
Sam getting ready if things get worst. When Valerie finds out Danny secret.
"Valerie I am Phantom, that why I know you were not inside the suit when I destroy it."
She just stood their with a blank look on her face trying to process the information he just reviled. After a time she composes her self and ask for an explanation. After Danny and Sam explained everything that has happened from Danny getting his powers and the thing with Cujo. Valerie through out the explanation remained calm and ask question here and there.
Valerie gets up looks Sam in the eyes and then slaps Danny in the face.
"Sam, I'm sorry I got in between you and Danny. I now know that me and Danny wont be a thing.(looks at Danny rubbing his cheek) I've had a lot of fun these last few days, but our life's are way too complicate for us to be anything other than... friends." (kisses Danny's cheek before leaving)
Danny holds a smile until Valerie is around the corner of the school building, then opens the hand that was holding the ring and looks at it.
Valerie changes into her new suit around the corner, but then looks back at Danny, and does see how sad he looks. But then she gets a determined look on her face much like the look Danny had before he destroyed the satellite, and flies off.
Danny sits back down at the picnic table outside the school building, Sam embraces Danny and he hugs her back.
"you know thing went better then I thought." Sam says little shy.
Danny gives Sam the ring and she asks.
"Why does it says WeS?"
"It doesn't turn it around."
Sam read the engraving again only gasp. Getting overjoyed she kisses Danny not caring what just happened.
Tucker nearby watching as two nerdy-looking girls walk up behind him.
Nerd Girl with big glasses ask "Goth girl made her move?"
Tucker replies "Apparently." Tucker turns to the girls and tries to turn on the charm. And fails.
Nerd Girl with ponytail "good for her it was time she fess up." Both girls ignoring Tucker.
"That's settles it! (to his PDA) You seeing anybody?"
Vlad P.O.V
Some place in the world in a hidden laboratory not his.
Vlad (in his ghost form) looking at specimen in pods that varied from animals to human and supernatural beings.
"Ah, Doctor you been busy. Finding you was not easy since the government kept file on you but had little information about you. they been tracking you so I came before they got to you with an offer. Infiltrating the G.I.W database is what led me to you."
Vlad get closer and get surprised seeing the doctor.
"Where are my manners let me introduce myself. In this form you can call me Plasmius and in this form(transforms back to human) Vlad masters. Now may a have the pleasure to know this lovely young ladies name."
Vlad grabs her arm and kisses the back of her hand.
"You may call me Salem."
