Episode 7: Helping a Member of the Family

(And now, we are on episode 7! I kind of forgot how long this one was! Anyway, I also paired Danny Phantom with Gravity Falls for obvious reasons. The only difference is one is more unhinged than the other. Enjoy!)

            "So, you have a big sister?" Sam asked as she, Danny, and Tucker were eating at Nosh Olé Café.

"And she's single!" Tucker added until Sam kicked his chair and made him fall.

"What's troubling you about this? If she's your sister, then you shouldn't be worried. She'll understand. Unless this is about your secret? You've kept it a secret so far. I am sure you can do it" Sam reassured him.

"That's not what I am worried about entirely" he said as he rubbed the back of his neck, "If anything, I am not sure if I'll measure up to her and the rest of my family"

His friends looked at him surprised.

"You work part time at Flynn Findings. That's already impressive" Tucker pointed out as he sat back on the chair, "I am sure your parents are proud of you for what you've done"

"No, you don't understand" Danny said with a shake of his head, "She's literally the prefect daughter and sister. She can do nothing wrong. Also, she's going to try and find out that I am one of the heroes of our place. How am I supposed to handle this?!"

"I am sure we will think of something" Sam reassured him as Tucker nodded his head in agreement.

The door then burst open as Dipper and Mabel were trying to run from something. Dipper hid behind Danny as Mabel snatched Tucker's red hat, pushed him off his chair, sat in his chair, and drank his drink.

"Is this going to be a regular meeting with us?" Sam asked as she laughed at Mabel.

"What did you two do now?" Danny asked as he glanced to Dipper.

"Nothing! We are actually hiding from that" Dipper said as he gestured to the commotion happening outside.

Danny and Sam stepped outside as Tucker remained with the twins. They found a few people crowding around Gideon and his new business idea.

"Eh, Gideon" Sam said annoyed.

"What is he doing now?" Danny asked as he tilted his head to the side.

There is a banner displaying many stuff animals, sweet treats, and other delightful stuff. There are booths filled with ice cream, candy, and cotton candy. There are stores filled with shiny stuff such as bags, clothes, and stuff animals. There was a stage for a singer and other performers. Danny didn't see what was wrong while Sam was taking a few steps back.

"This is all stuff that most girls enjoy or those with feminine tastes" Danny pointed out confused.

"Exactly! He's trying to get Mabel's attention still!" Sam said as she snapped her fingers, "Ugh, guys like him are the reason I write blogs and music about independence for woman and anyone who needs it"

"I agree" Danny conceded as he saw Gideon handing out candy to anyone, "But why does he love Mabel so much? Don't get me wrong, she's a nice kid, but why?"

"I don't know, but that could be the reason for all of this" Sam reasoned as they went back to the café and saw Tucker ordering some food for the twins.

Mabel returned his hat as Dipper was reading a book. Sam sat with Mabel as Danny glanced at the book.

"So, is that the same book from before?" Danny asked as he took a chip and ate it.

"Yeah. After catching the ghost, I was wondering if I could find anything else out" Dipper answered as he let Danny read it.

He found this book to be rather weird. It was filled with descriptions of magical creatures, monsters, and rare materials and locations.

"Where did you get this by the way?" Danny asked suspiciously.

Dipper closed the book and tried to play it off as Sam glanced to Mabel and asked simply, "Hey Mabel, where did your brother get the book?"

"We found it in our great uncle's office!" she answered warmly as the trio blinked.

Why would Dr. Ford have something like this? It was just a book filled with magical information. Danny gripped his head as he let out a scream of realization. He finally understood why!

"Dipper! You have to give me that book!" Danny exclaimed as Sam glanced at it.

"What? Why? You don't need it. It is not even yours" Dipper said as he closed and held it close to himself.

Danny wasn't sure how to explain to the teenager that he was one of the heroes and needed that book. Sam noticed Danny's expression and motioned Tucker to handle the twins once again as she talked with him. She pulled him outside of the shop and made sure no one was listening to them.

"Ok, why do you need that book? I thought your book was safe" she asked as she tried to make sense of this.

"It is, but I have a feeling that's why Gideon is after them. They have a book filled with magical information. I don't have proof, but maybe that book has the location of the seal. Maybe. It does have a lot of information on ghosts and other monsters" Danny answered awkwardly, "I mean, the book we have can pick it appearance based on whoever is viewing it. To the heroes, it looks like a magical book of sorts. To everyone else, I don't know"

"It actually looks like a normal book. Well, normal, brown leather book. That's what Tucker described it as" Sam answered as she understood his concerns, "If that book Dipper has does have knowledge on monsters, then I can definitely see why Gideon would want it. I mean, we did fight a ghost and you have some really strange enemies to fight. That book could have the knowledge on it. Now, the next problem is explaining that to an anxiety driven teenage boy and the hyperactive, destructive teenage girl"

"Yeah, and somehow, I believe that to be the difficult part for today. I hope" Danny said as he leaned against a wall and noticed a few girls were talking about the heroes and heroines.

"Don't you think the Ninja looks cool?" one fan asked as Danny rolled his eyes.

Sam laughed at his reaction until another girl said in a dreamy manner, "But what about the Phantom? We at least know what he looks like! He's not bad looking either"

Danny grinned as Sam snapped her fingers.

"I've got an idea! Ready to break some hearts?" Sam asked with a smirk as Danny suddenly felt unsure about her idea.

Meanwhile, Kim and Ron were walking to the Cinnamon Chai's Tea and Cake Shop.

"Aw, why couldn't we meet at the Nosh Olé Café? I need some nacos and you know it!" he exclaimed and gestured to the shop in the distance.

"Because Vanessa wanted us to meet at the Tea and Cake shop. Also, what is wrong with having some tea?" Kim asked as she showed him the texts, "Also, you didn't have to come"

"Ah, but that is where you are wrong, KP" Ron said as he read the text and gave her phone back, "What if you need to sneak off and use your powers? That is where I come in. I'll make sure you have a cover and keep Vanessa here!"

Kim did find his concern and helpfulness sweet, but she also a bit worried he might be overacting. There was no way the villains would attack two times in a week, right? They entered the shop and found Vanessa sitting in the back with a biscuit and black tea.

"Wow, she even sits in the back with darkness around her" Ron said as Kim elbowed him, "What? I am just saying!"

"Hey Vanessa, thank you for inviting us here. I am sure we can help you with whatever you are doing" Kim said as she greeted her coworker warmly.

She and Ron sat in the other booth as Ron held a menu and began to order for himself.

"Yeah, and thanks for agreeing to meet me here. Though, I didn't expect your boyfriend to be with us" Vanessa replied as Kim and Ron blinked at her, "What? You two are dating, right?"

"No!" they shouted offended and embarrassed.

"We've been friends since pre k, but that's it! We are just best friends!" Ron explained as Kim nodded her head in agreement.

Vanessa simply held a satisfied smile, drank her tea, and nodded her head. She opened her bag to take out a few documents. She handed it to Kim as Ron accepted a drink from the waiter. Kim read the documents as Ron glanced it.

"Wait, aren't these the robots from the fight?" Ron asked curiously as he sipped the drink.

"These are even blueprints and designs about them as well. How did you get all of this?" Kim asked as she looked at Vanessa.

Vanessa took a sip from her tea, gently placed the cup on the table, and calmed herself.

"What I am about to tell you is something serious and important. Please do not tell anyone else about this" Vanessa asked of them as they lean in, nodded their head, and listened to her intently, "The Scientist the heroes and heroines were fighting. I wasn't sure until I checked the robots, but now I am after their most recent fight with him. He's my dad"

Ron was about to scream until Kim covered his mouth with her hand. Vanessa glared at him as Kim held a nervous smile.

"Are you sure it is him?" Kim asked as she held a serious expression next.

To be honest, she had a feeling that Vanessa had some sort of relationship to the person who created the robots. She didn't expect this though.

"Yeah, the self-destruct button was a dead giveaway. My dad isn't really evil, but he does cause some chaos when he can" Vanessa explained, "He's not so bad a dad. He really means so much to me. I don't know how he got caught up in all of this, but I am sure he doesn't know what he is doing entirely. I know this is a lot to ask, but please help me save him"

Kim was reading the reports as Ron answered nervously, "Sure, we can help, but I don't know since that is oddly dangerous, and we don't like danger! Right, Kim?"

"I'm in" she answered with no hesitation and held a grin.

"Are you serious?!" Ron exclaimed in disbelief while Vanessa said in relief.

"Yes. I am sure about this!" Kim answered with a grin, "And if you say your dad isn't a bad guy, then I am sure we can help him"

Vanessa sighed in relief as she said, "Thank you so much, Kim. I don't know how to make this up to you, but this does mean a lot"

"So, how are we going to help your dad?" Ron asked as Vanessa raised a brow at him, "Hey, if KP is in this, then so am I! We are best friends through thick and thin!"

Kim grinned at him as Vanessa held a smirk still.

"Well, I've got some stuff at my place that we can look at" she said as she paid for her drink and treat.

Ron paid for his as he and Kim followed her to her apartment. Ron's jaw dropped at the site of it while Kim was impressed. Vanessa's place was a penthouse that overlooked the Nature Park. It was only a five-minute walk from her house to their workplace. Not to mention, it was sparkling and clean. Nothing was out of place and shiny.

"Seriously, my place is nothing like this! How can you afford all of this?!" Ron exclaimed as he placed his drink on the table.

Vanessa coughed and pointed to the napkins. Ron took one and used it to place his drink on.

"Well, I get paid quite a bit to travel abroad and promote the products. Also, I share this place with my boyfriend. Though, he's out of town on another meeting" Vanessa answered with a satisfied smile.

Ron pouted as he sat at the table while Kim pulled up next to him.

"Well, it is a lovely place. Better than mine too" Kim answered as pondered on who Vanessa's boyfriend could be, "So, do you have any more evidence to help your father?"

Vanessa nodded as she went to her office and pulled out a sliding blackboard filled with all kinds of information on her father!

"Wow! That's both impressive and horrifying. This is almost like a journalist's work!" Ron said with proud expression as Kim shook her head at him.

"It wasn't much, but I was able to track my dad thanks to my boyfriend's help" Vanessa explained as she gestured to it, "My dad's full name is Doctor Heinz Doofenshmirtz. He's a scientist who creates dangerous machines, but his machines could actually help others"

She paused as she noticed Kim and Ron were not laughing at her last name.

"Why aren't you laughing at the name?" she asked as she raised a brow at them.

"Why would we? My last is Possible and his is Stoppable" Kim said as she pointed to herself and Ron.

"Also, it is Drusselsteinian! Very classily! Did you know that has a single shaft running the entire country?! It is on my list of places I want to go ranking at number 4" Ron added with a grin.

Vanessa blinked again and then laughed. Besides them, her friends didn't laugh at the name either. She knew she could trust them.

"Well, anyway, he used to work for L.OV.E.M.U.F.F.I. N until a platypus and his friends stopped them. Afterwards, my dad was working at a high school as a professor. He actually helped with my friend's brothers get into fantastic colleges and help with their businesses. I thought he was doing fine, so I left for overseas trips. You can imagine my surprise when I discovered he was back to his evil ways" Vanessa explained to them, "Now, any questions"

"Love muffin?" Ron asked as he tried to not burst into laughter.

"It stands for the League of Villains Evildoers Manically United For Frightening Investments in Naughtiness. He was evil, but he wasn't good at it. It was thanks to a platypus that helped him see the error of his ways" Vanessa answered as Ron lost it and hugged his sides.

"Ignore him, he's going to be a while" Kim said with a shake of her head, "Why did you mention the brothers? Should we know them?"

"Oh, I thought Danny would've mentioned his boss" Vanessa said as she pulled out her phone to show Flynn Findings.

"He helped Dr. Phineas Flynn and Dr. Ferb Fletcher?!" Kim and Ron exclaimed as they stared at her, "And you know them?!'

"Duh, we lived in the same town. Though, Dr. Fletcher is overseas. His big sister, Candance, works here, but she's on vacation with her family. Dr. Flynn has his own company and is dating his childhood sweetheart. Why I brought them up is because maybe they might know what happened to my dad. I've tried to reach him, but he's busy. I figured with an employee; he would be more willing to talk"

"I am sure I can get Danny's help with that" Kim reassured her, "But what should we ask when it comes to your father? I feel like Dr. Flynn would be suspicious if we started talking about him for no reason"

"Which is why I need Danny to read up on my dad. Can you get him to do that too please?" Vanessa asked unsure as she went to get a piece of paper from her stack to give to Kim, "And thanks. I wasn't sure if I was going to get any help on this, but I am grateful I do. Even though, I have no idea how this is going to end, and we do have a slight chance of dying too"

"So, not the drama. We are friends. We help each other" Kim reassured her with a wave of her hand, "And I am sure we can help your dad, so don't worry. We are in this together"

"Thanks" Vanessa said in relief as Ron cheered, "But I do have to make a few meetings. We can meet up again after Danny and you get the info from Phineas"

Kim and Ron understood and left her place. Kim was reading the questions and information about Vanessa's dad while Ron took out his phone. They walked in silence until Ron noticed the trending pages on the internet.

"Uh, I thought you and your teammates agreed on a low profile" Ron said confused as Kim stopped and looked at his phone.

"We did, why?" she asked suspiciously until she growled.

Phantom had made an appearance and was signing autographs and taking pictures! Kim took the phone and read the article as Ron waited for her.

"I expected this from Randy almost, but not Danny!" Kim said frustrated as she shook her head, "I'll just have to knock some sense into him"

"What are you going to do?" Ron asked curiously.

"Be the leader" Kim answered firmly as she gave Ron the stuff Vanessa had given her and rushed to find a place to transform.

Once she did, she rushed to Phantom's location as Ron trailed behind her. As for Phantom, he wasn't sure about Sam's idea.

"So, you want me to charm the girls or anyone who has an attraction to me, because you are sure Mabel will have one. She'll then take the book in Dipper's hands and have me sign it. Then, I'll leave claiming I have a hero business to attend to" Phantom asked as he was hiding with Sam behind a building as she fixed up his hair, "And why are you doing this to my hair?"

"Because I am trying to make you irresistible! And yes, this should work, do you know how the mind of teenage girl works?" Sam asked curiously as she then parted his hair and had it cover his eyes.

"No, because I was busy trying to pass my classes" he answered as he tried to see through his hair, "I can barely see through this! Are you sure this is going to work?"

"Yes! Now, disappear to reappear on that stage! You've got people to woo!" Sam encouraged as Phantom sighed at the idea.

Well, he doesn't have any other ideas to use either. Might as well give this one a try. He disappeared, flew to the stage, and then appeared on it! Everyone gasped to see him as he blinked. He wasn't really sure what to say. Sam was standing in the crowd as she gestured to make him say a grand speech of some kind.

He shrugged and announced as strongly as he could, "Hi everyone! I am the Phantom! I am here to have some fun and let you take pictures with me!"

There was a moment of silence until a wave of fans rushed towards him! Sam smirked as Tucker and the twins exited the Nosh Olé Café to see the commotion.

"Oh, wow! It is the Phantom!" Dipper said surprised.

As for Mabel, her eyes were wide and sparkling at the site of the Phantom. She found him to be attractive and shiny!

"I have to meet him!" she exclaimed as Dipper shook his head.

"What? Mabel, no! Do you see the crowd? How do you think we are going to get through that?" Dipper asked in disbelief as he gestured to it.

"Dipper, you don't understand! He's my dream boy! I have to meet him! Give me that!" she shouted as she snatched the book and ran to him!

"Mabel! Come back!" Dipper shouted as he ran after her in the crowd.

Tucker was about to chase them until Sam stopped him. He was confused as she shook her head. He looked up to see Phantom among the crowd!

"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Tucker asked unsure.

"Oh, yeah. He's got it!" Sam encouraged with a smirk while holding her camera.

Phantom sighed at the crowd as he went to signing autographs and taking photos with everyone. He just had to keep this up until he reaches Mabel and take the book. He glanced to find her jumping and trying to get her way through the crowd to him. He gulped as he was suddenly feeling very unsure about this.

"Out of my way! I need him!" Mabel exclaimed as she marched her way through the crowd.

Phantom whimpered and slowly lifted himself to the air just in case he would need to make a quick exit. He glanced to Sam who motioned for him to meet Mabel and get the book. Phantom sighed as he slowly pushed himself forward to compose himself before her.

"Hi! Who are you? Are you a fan?" Phantom asked as he tried to be nice to her and not freak out.

"Oh, my gods, you're talking to me! You're talking to me!" Mabel exclaimed in delight as she jumped to hug him!

Phantom stumbled back as he tried his best to not phase through her. He let out a nervous laugh as he patted her head.

"Yeah, yeah I am" he said nervously as he reached for the book, "Do you want me to sign this?"

"Yes!" Mabel cheered as she didn't let go of his arm.

She then rubbed her cheeks against his as he felt embarrassed about this. Sam held her phone to take a photo as Tucker had to restrain Dipper from ruining their plan. However, they were too focused on their plan to realize that Gideon was standing near the stage and watching this unfold. His hands gripped tightly to his bowtie as he was shaking in anger.

"How dare you!" he exclaimed as he stomped his feet in anger, "You will not get away with my plans! I will not let you!"

He pulled out his phone and pulled up his contacts. Four screens appeared in front of him as he stomped behind it. Only one person was able to respond, Dr. Doofenshmirtz.

"You have to be kidding me?" Gideon said disappointed.

"Hey! Tom's got an important meeting for his shareholders while Julian has a deadline to meet. Being evil isn't easy! We need the money!" Dr. Doof answered in a crossed manner.

Gideon rolled his eyes at the statement as he causally forgot that two of them weren't as rich as him. He still wondered why Tom bothered to work, but he could ask his coworker that question later.

"Fine, but we must work fast. A hero has appeared and must be delt with!" Gideon ordered as he moved the screen to show Phantom being surrounded by girls.

Dr. Doof blinked a couple of times before shrugging in relief, "Man, am I relieved Vanessa never went to one of these. She just enjoyed her loud concerts and shopping. Anyway, I've got the perfect robots to capture him. I was able to analysis his abilities! I've got this, partner!"

Dr. Doof waved the screen over his desk as he then typed up another code on the computer to make his robots appear around the stage! The fans were screaming and backing away as Phantom growled. The robots were different than the ones from before. They were floating in the air, but they had the same armor and structure at the previous ones. Phantom reasoned that these robots were designed to fight and fly.

"Ok, they want me" he whispered as he felt Mabel shake a little.

He gently pulled her off him to place her on the ground. He still held the book and hovered in the air above the stage.

"Hey! I'm the one you want! Leave them alone!" he shouted as the robots turned their attention to him.

The robots didn't move which surprised Phantom.

"Why are they not attacking me?" he whispered as he searched the ground for a reason.

He saw Mabel slowly backing away as a few of the robots were looking at her. He dove to the stage and slammed his hands on the stage to create a wall of ice to protect himself and Mabel. The robots crashed into the wall of ice as Phantom was relieved.

"Mabel are you ok?" he asked calmly.

"I think so" she said nervously.

Phantom remained calm as he looked at the robots trying to break the wall of ice. He had to protect Mabel and the book.

"Alright, I am the one you want. Why are you after a teenage girl?" Phantom asked as ice coated his hands as he prepared to fight them.

Gideon growled as he saw Mabel jump to Phantom's side and holding onto him. He didn't bother to push her away either! Gideon's gripped tightened on the bowtie as he transformed into the Businessman. He then appeared in a pale, blue smoke as he snapped his fingers to cast a powerful, blue spell to shatter the wall of ice!

"Because she doesn't belong to you!" he shouted defensively as Phantom prepared himself for a fight, "She belongs to Gideon Gleeful as his queen!"

"Ok, wow, that is wrong on so many levels. First off, no one belongs to anyone. That's just wrong. Second off, I was just trying to please some fans! That's it! Also, it is up to Mabel to decide who she wants to be with. Not you nor anyone else!" Phantom answered as he blasted a beam of ice to strike the Businessman.

He then grabbed Mabel and flew away from him.

"Hang on tight, ok?" he said seriously as he pulled himself and her away.

Businessman recovered and ordered as he pointed after them, "Get him, get him, GET HIM!"

The robots flew after them as Phantom looked back to see the robots coming. Phantom then phased through a few buildings before appearing on a roof to gently place Mabel on it. She was shaking, but she wasn't hurt. Phantom glanced to find the robots. So, if they want Mabel, he could use himself as bait. He looked at his other hand to see the book. He knew he needed it, but he also couldn't risk the Businessman having this either.

"Ok, Mabel, I need you to hold onto this and stay here" Phantom ordered calmly as he gave her the book.

She took it and asked with concern, "I will, but are you sure you can handle this alone?"

"Yeah, this won't be hard. I also have friends. I am sure they are aware of what is happening and will give me a hand" he reassured her with a grin as he turned to fly off the building.

Mabel grabbed his wrist and looked down. He turned and hovered before her.

"Is something else wrong?" he asked gently as he waited for her to speak with him.

"I'm sorry. This is my fault. I rejected Gideon and told him about some secrets. If I hadn't done that, no one would be in this mess" Mabel said with sadness in her voice, "I should turn myself in"

Phantom was surprised to hear this, but he was not going to let Mabel feel guilty about this either. He placed himself on the roof and held her hand in a comforting manner.

"This wasn't your fault at all. You didn't want to be with him, so do not feel bad about this" Phantom said in calm manner, "You do not have to turn yourself in, because as one of the chosen heroes, I will make sure you are safe. So, just stay here. After this, we will take a photo and I'll sign your book"

He flashed a smile, jumped from the roof, and flew to the middle of the street! The robots flew towards him as he calmed his nerves down. He gripped his fists as ice coated it.

"Ok, so it is five robots and one of me. I can handle these odds" Phantom said in relief as he prepared for a fight.

"Correction! Five robots and me!" Businessman shouted as he appeared behind Phantom in a pale blue light to blast a beam to knock Phantom into a wall!

Phantom hit a wall as he groaned in pain and saw the Businessman coming towards him with the robots. Phantom waited against the wall as Businessman snapped his fingers to have the robots attack him. Phantom then pressed his hands against the wall and phased through it just as the robots punched it! Phantom then flew through the building and then back out to the streets. He saw one robot distract, so he shot one beam of ice to freeze him. Then, he flew towards it to punch it into pieces!

"One down, four more to go" he said as he glanced to see one coming towards him.

He raised his hand to cast another beam of ice, but two robots grabbed him! He tried to freeze his hands and the robots, but the one he previously focused on dove towards him to punch his stomach.

"Gah!" he gasped in pain as he coughed.

"Do not let up!" Businessman ordered as he appeared behind the robots, "Make him suffer!"

The robot continued to punch him as Phantom felt nothing but pain in his stomach and body. he wasn't sure how long he could hold out for. He really wished he could have some help. He could feel himself losing his strength to fight, but he kept fighting the urge to faint.

"Ahaha! This is what happens when you cross the Businessman" Businessman said with a grin, "You will fall just like every other person who has dared to cross paths with me!"

Phantom grunted in pain as he tried to keep himself standing. Suddenly, the earth rose to knock the two robots holding him in the air. Phantom saw his chance and blasted a beam of ice to the robot punching him. He drew his fist back, yelled, and punched the robot! Businessman was confused as he searched for the person who made the earth rise. Phantom fell to his knees as he hugged his aching stomach and tried to pick himself up.

"I've got you" Spy said as she helped him stand up and faced the Businessman.

She stomped her feet to create a wall of earth between themselves and the Businessman. They ran to a building as she created a few earth walls to confuse Businessman if he ever got through the first wall. She then placed Phantom against the wall as she checked on his wound.

"Are you ok?" she asked in a gentle tone as she looked at his stomach.

His stomach was red, and he was shaking in place.

"I'll be fine. I am grateful for the healing factor we have, but I wish it could do more" he answered.

"Oh, good, so then explain to me why you were signing autographs and taking photos!" Spy asked as she crossed her arms over her chest.

"I know, I know. That was dumb and something only the Ninja would do, but I have a good reason for this" he explained, "But the twins had a book. That book has information on a lot of strange stuff, and I have a theory that the book has a connection to ours"

Spy listened to what he said and asked where the book was.

"I left it with Mabel. Also, I have a theory that Businessman is working with Gideon. They both want Mabel, and I am not ok with that. It is making her uncomfortable" he explained as he gestured to the roof where he left Mabel, "But I don't know how I am going to get through this fight"

"Well, you're not going to do this alone" Spy said as she held her hand out to him, "Let's do this together"

Phantom grinned as he took her hand and stood up. He still held his stomach and struggled to stand up.

"But I am not sure if I can be helpful in the fight like this" Phantom said with concern.

"Maybe you don't have to fight. You just need to help me with getting the Businessman out of commissions as well as freezing one robot and not destroying it" Spy said with a grin.

"Wait, you want a robot not destroyed? Why?" Phantom asked as he tilted his head to the left.

"Right, I am going to need your help too" Spy said with a nervous smile, "Well, we can talk about that later. Come on, are you ready?"

"Yes" Phantom answered with a firm smile.

They heard a yell as something broke. They turned to see Businessman breaking through her walls of earth. He was angry as he tried to search for them.

"What do you think the source of his powers is?" Spy asked as she noticed the robot scanning for them.

Phantom looked at Businessman and noticed that the Businessman was holding onto his bowtie every time he cast magic.

'The bowtie. If I can get it, then I should be able to stop him from casting his magic and possible reveal his identity to us" Phantom said as he grunted in pain, "But before I do that, I should help you with your robot first"

She grinned as she snapped her fingers.

"I'll handle Businessman. You should have enough time to freeze the robot" Spy said to him.

"Got it" he answered with a grin as he created a path of ice and glided across it.

Spy created another wall of earth between her and him as she rushed towards the Businessman. She then covered her hands in dirty as she grabbed his suit from behind. He let out a horrified scream as he blasted her with his magic. She raised her hands to make the earth protect her, but his magic still knocked her back.

"How dare you! This suit is made from the richest materials known to the world! Wizard was right! You ladies need to be taught some manners!" he shouted as he cast another wave of magic at her.

She ducked and ran from his spells as she glanced to Phantom. He slid on the ground and grabbed the robot. The robot was surprised as he smirked.

"Freeze" he whispered as his hands covered the robot in ice.

Phantom caught it and then froze it to the ground before it could shatter. Then, he created slide made of ice to glide across and reach Spy. Spy grabbed his hands, spun, and then threw him at the Businessman. The Businessman was surprised as Phantom reached out and grabbed the bowtie. Instead of pulling it off, something strange happened instead.

"Woah!" Danny yelled as he found himself falling.

Falling? That can't be right. He was just reaching out for the bowtie a few seconds ago. Actually, the whole scene changed around himself! Where was he?! He noticed he was going to fall on his face, so he moved so that his feet could land on the ground. He looked at what he landed on and noticed it was stain glass platform.

"What is this?" he asked as he kneeled on the ground to see the pale blue stain glass.

"What are you doing here?!" a familiar, squeaky voice exclaimed as Danny looked up and gasped.

Standing before him was not the Businessman but Gideon!

"I should be asking you that! What is this place?!" Danny shouted as he pointed at Gideon.

"This is my inner psychological world! You should not be here! Get out of my world!" Gideon answered as he unleashed a powerful, pale blue magical wave.

Danny raised his hands to create a wall of ice to protect himself. He peeked through the ice to notice that the blue stain glass platform held Gideon's person, but it also had different faces on it too. Dipper, Mabel, and another person Danny didn't know were present. However, there was a triangle being there as well.

"What?" Danny asked as Gideon realized that he was using ice.

"No, you're the Phantom, aren't you?!" Gideon exclaimed in anger, "You were trying to take away my queen, Mabel!"

"No, I wasn't. I was just helping her!" Danny replied seriously, "You were the one who was hurting her! She doesn't feel the same about you as you do her. You need to move on"

"Lies! You are just telling her that, so she will leave me! I am her king! She needs to realize it!" Gideon exclaimed as he unleashed another wave of pale blue magic.

It shattered the ice and then blew Danny out of his psychological world! Phantom found himself being blasted away as Spy raised the earth to jump and then catch him before he hit another building.

"What happened?" she asked as she gently placed him on the ground.

"Something really strange and freaky' Phantom answered unsure of what had just happened to him.

"Well, whatever you did, it weakened him" Spy said as she pointed to the Businessman on his knees.

"Yeah, we should get him while we have the chance" Phantom said as he and her stood up.

Meanwhile, Businessman was holding the bowtie and himself in pain. He questioned what had just happened as he faced the two heroes before him. How did the Phantom, no Danny, break into his inner psychological world? He shouldn't have that ability! What is going on?! He gasped as he saw the earth was rising around himself! He jumped and scooted away from himself until he felt himself against a building. He gasped as he saw Spy and Phantom standing before him.

"Alright, it is time to give it up" Phantom said seriously as he held his hand out to Businessman, "Surrender your item and stop this chaos"

Businessman was shifting and holding his bowtie close. There was no way he was going to surrender to them! Not when he is so close to achieving his personal goal. Suddenly, the robots repaired themselves and rammed towards the two heroes! Spy reacted first and raised the earth to protect herself and drop Phantom to her side. However, she lost her control on the earth trapping the Businessman. As for the Businessman, he was surprised as the Scientist arrived on a hover craft.

"See? I told you I could be helpful!" he boasted as Phantom noticed the robot he froze was trying to break free.

He whispered, "Spy, I'll handle the one robot I froze. Keep them distracted"

She glanced at him. He was still weak, but he was also trying. He made himself disappear and then walk towards it. As for the Spy, she also noticed the Scientist was here! She saw her chance and waved her hands outward to make the earth she created to slam against the robots. She then created another wall of earth around the Scientist and Businessman.

"If you honestly think this is going to stop me, then you don't how smart I am, Miss Spy!" the Scientist said seriously as he helped Businessman onto the craft and made sure he secured.

Spy was surprised about the detail, but she also grinned. Vanessa was right about her father.

"Dr. Scientist" Spy spoke softly as she made no effort to attack them, "Do you want to keep doing this?"

"Doing what?" he asked bewildered.

"Hurting others and creating robots to harm others" Spy answered, "Why not use your skills to bring joy to others and those you care about?"

Phantom listened to their conversation and wondered what Spy was getting at, but he can ask that later. He unfroze the back of the robot's head and then opened the control panel to shut down the robot. Oddly enough, it was similar to Dr. Flynn's robots. Phantom made a note of that as he sent a text to her about taking the robot to Randy's place and then checking on Mabel. He sent another text to the other two members informing them of a meeting at Randy's place. Spy checked her commlink and read the message from Phantom.

"Hey! We are having a conversation or not?" Scientist asked annoyed and disappointed, "I will have you know that my daughter would never check her device while speaking to someone"

Spy grinned at the Scientist and knew he was truly a good person, even if he was fighting on the wrong side.

"Does your daughter know you do this?" Spy asked as the Scientist was caught off guard, "Because she probably wants you to do something good with your inventions. Please rethink this"

"Well, I am doing this for my daughter" he answered with a nod of his head, "I know this might be ideal, but I also it is for her! I will prove it to you!"

He then pulled something out his jacket and threw it on the ground! Smoke appeared as Spy backflipped and saw them fleeing. She sighed as she landed on her feet and watched them leave. She dusted herself off and checked to see some people still standing and observing her. She shook her head and decided to head to the flat to meet with her teammates and explain the information she found out.

"Well, that could've gone worse" Scientist commented as he arrived at the basement and helped Gideon step off his craft to rest at his chair.

"It looked worse" Julian said as he laughed at them, "You couldn't even handle them!"

"Oh, shut up! You couldn't handle it either!" Gideon snapped at him as Dr. Doof tried to calm the two of them.

"QUIET!" Tom yelled as he burst into flames and gained the attention of the room, "We have failed too many times. We cannot afford to fail anymore. Otherwise, we won't have our desires granted and Bill will take out his anger on us for failing"

Everyone remained quiet as they looked at him. He was panting and had a messy appearance as he tried to take command. He sighed, fixed up his appearance, and shook his head. He would have to rethink their plan and ensure that they find the seal somehow. His phone buzzed as he jumped, coughed, and then took it out to see who was bothering him on his important mission. He gulped when he noticed it was from his girlfriend. She was asking about their date tomorrow! He could feel his fire rising as he realized he would have to deal with this.

"Well, continue searching for the seal" he ordered as he tried to calm himself down, "And do not fail!"

The agreed as he turned away from them. He went to schedule a nice dinner for his girlfriend as well as nice evening too. He realized that he hadn't spent much time with her and felt calm. He should enjoy a nice date with her as best as he can. Even though he would want his desire to be met.

"Ok, so the robot is here in the guest room. Hopefully, Randy won't mind" Danny said as the robot laid on the floor with oil pouring.

He simply froze the oil as Kim raised a brow at that. He waved his hand to reassure her it was fine until he felt some pain in his stomach. He grabbed it and slowly picked himself up.

"I'm fine. I should make sure Mabel is too. I've texted you everything I know about the situation, so if I am late, please explain to the others about this" he said with a weak smile.

He opened the window and transformed before jumping out of the window. He then flew to roof and found Mabel sitting there and searching for him. He then landed behind her as he cleared his throat. She jumped, turned around, and rushed to embrace him! She was shaking and crying as he patted her head and let her have her moment.

Once she was done, he gently pulled away and asked with a gentle smile, "So, are you feeling better?"

"Yeah, thank you. I really had a tough day. I'm sorry" Mabel said as Phantom shook his head and was given the book, "Here you go. I hope this helps you. I hate to ask, but can you please take me back to my brother? His name is Dipper, and he looks like me but a boy"

"Sure thing" Phantom reassured her as he carried her and flew to find him.

Dipper was with Sam and Tucker, but he was freaking out as Tucker tried his best to calm him down. However, Dipper was too anxious and worried. Sam kept an eye out for Phantom and sighed in relief to see him carrying Mabel towards them. Mabel jumped from Phantom's arms and rushed to embrace her twin brother. Dipper also ran and held his twin sister as Tucker sighed in relief.

"Are you ok?" Sam asked as she noticed him holding his stomach in pain.

"I got punched in the gut a few times" he whispered to her, "I'll recover eventually. Just make sure they get home safely. I'll fill you two in if anything else happens"

Tucker nodded as Sam shook her head and stood right at his side to answer, "Well, Tucker can do that. I'll help you get back to the flat"

Phantom was surprised at her serious and concerned expression while Tucker rolled his eyes at them and chuckled. Dipper and Mabel were relieved to see each other safe before turning to Phantom and seeing the book in his hands.

"Uh, that's our book" Dipper said nervously as he pointed at it.

Mabel wanted to explain it, but Phantom stepped forward and answered, "I'm sorry, but the Businessman wanted this. I am sure the two of you have family and friends who care about you, so it would be best if I hang onto it until I defeat the Businessman. Once he's defeated, I will return it to you"

Dipper wasn't so sure until he felt Mabel squeeze his hand with worry.

"Please let him have it for now. Businessman is dangerous, and they need the book" Mabel pleaded with him as he sighed.

"Ok, but I am not sure how our Great Uncle Ford is going to handle this" Dipper said as he gave in.

"Don't worry, I can explain it to him" Tucker reassured them as he patted their shoulders and walked away.

He grinned at Sam and Phantom as they left. Phantom went behind a building and transformed back to himself. He suddenly felt the pain again as he collapsed. Luckily, Sam helped him stand up and then walked forward. As she was busy with walking forward, Danny looked at her with wide eyes and heat rising to his cheeks. She glanced to him as he turned away and whistled. She snickered at his reaction as they continued to walk until they heard a voice.

"Danny! There you are! Mom and dad were getting worried!" a concerned, sisterly voice called out as Danny froze on the spot.

"No, it can't be" he whispered as they slowly turned around to see who was behind them.

There was a tall lady with orange hair and bright blue eyes. She wore a fancy, black dress top and fabulous blue jeans. She has a pair of black flats on with a blue hairclip. She rushed to them in relief as she looked at the person next to him.

"No way! Did little Danny get himself a girlfriend?!" she gasped in awe as she looked at them.

"Uh, no!" they shouted as they looked away from each other with heat rising to their cheeks until Sam looked at her to ask, "So, who are you and how do you know Danny?"

"Did he never talk about me? I am his big sister, Jasmine! Though, you can call me Jazz" she answered warmly as Danny suddenly realized it.

His big sister is here, back at their hometown. She would now spend time with him and ask about his life!

"NO!" Danny screamed as he pushed himself off Sam and held his head.

"Gee, overdramatic much" Jazz said as she crossed her arms over her chest and shook her head, "Come on, mom and dad are worried. You can hang out with your friend later"

Jazz then pulled Danny away from Sam as she held the book. Danny motioned her to head to Randy's flat while he spent time with his family. He sighed and let his big sister drag him to their home. Sam ran to the flat with the book in hand.

Meanwhile, Randy was walking to his place as he read the texts on his phone. He knew this was going to be a big meeting, but he questioned the frantic, nervous texts Danny sent in their group chat. Randy shrugged as he walked up to the flat and then saw an interesting site before him. He didn't mind that his teammates got keys to the flat that Star paid for. What he did mind was Kim and Ron were taking apart a robot with Vanessa overlooking it while Star was sitting on the couch.

"So, do I want to know or no?" Randy asked as he took off his satchel and then went to the fridge to get a drink.

"I needed the robot" Vanessa answered simply as she then took another piece off.

Randy sat on the couch and glanced to Star who shrugged at him. Kim let Ron and Vanessa mess with the robot. Kim then turned to her two teammates and informed them everything that had transpired for the day.

"Dang, that's intense" Randy said surprised.

"Sorry, we were busy" Star said in defeat as Kim shook her head.

"You have nothing to feel bad about. We worked out a schedule and everything was fine, but Danny wanted to ask about the psychological world that he discovered. Well, we should wait until he is here to ask the book that. Speaking of books, I hope he brings the other one. I want to look at it and see if we can find out anything new" Kim answered as she tapped her cheek.

There was a knock at the door which surprised them. Danny would have a key, so who could this be? Randy motioned for Kim to stay with her friends while he and Star checked it out. The two of them reached the door, Randy opened it cautiously, and then grinned. It was Sam, and she was even holding the book in her hands. They welcomed her in as she explained what happened to Danny. Star took the book and read it with great care and interest.

"So, I take it you want to look it over?" Randy asked warmly.

"Oh! Yeah, I've got it!" Star reassured them, "This is more historical and mythical anyway. It should be easy!"

Kim was satisfied as Randy grinned. With that, Randy ordered a pizza for them to eat until they decided to retire to their respective homes.

As the heroes slept, Debbi and Theresa were waiting it their apartment for their third member. Both girls were in their pajamas and resting after a long day's work. They had finished dinner too. Debbi was reading the latest reports about the Chosen Heroes while Theresa was looking at the door and her phone. She hoped her friend would be ok. The door was opened as she sat up and smiled.

"Oh, Julian! We were worried!" she said with a grin as he entered and took a bow.

"I'm sorry, but I was held up at the moment" he answered as he recalled Tom's words and noticed Theresa.

Ah, he has an idea to lure the heroes and heroines to their doom. He was sure his friend could even help him achieve it too.
