CHAPTER 3: GHOST
[Last Night, about the time Danny was having his dream]
[at Amity Park Museum of Science and History]
The moon shining through the skylight, providing moon light to the dark and empty atmosphere in the main exhibit room. It's filled with display cases of weapons, armor, statues and several artifacts. Besides the constant sounds of footsteps from the current night guard, the museum was quiet and still. Noting could disturb this calm night...
Except, for the ominous glow coming from the covered displayed case in the center of the room.
The glow continued to glow brighter, as boxes and statues starting to float off the ground.
Bob, the security guard (let's name him Bob, love Bob, hehehe Docotor Who) was walking by when he saw a spooky glow coming from the room. He rushed in, and witnessed the paranormal spectacle, as boxes, cases and statues hovered and spun around near the ceiling. Pottery pots flew and smashed against the wall and floor.
"Oh man Oh man Oh man! I gotta call the boss." He took out his walkie-talkie.
A spear aimed straight for his head. He ducked just in time to see the spear impale the wall instead.
"Scratch that, I'm out of here!" He ran as fast as his legs can carry him, screaming.
And just as it mysteriously started, it suddenly stopped and the crates dropped in an instant.
[Flash-forward to the Present]
"HIYA, MY EXHIBIT!" After receiving a call from a distort security guard, Mr. Takanawa, along with his assistant, Mr. Milo, rushed to the museum to see what had occurred. Just one look at the destroyed room and Mr. Takanawa was ready to blow a fuse.
"That is it! This has gone long enough. I can not open the new exhibit if everything keeps floating away and destroying the artifacts."
"What are we going to do?" Mr. Milo nervously eyed the covered case in the center. "Sir, do you think it could be..."
"No, course not, the legend is just what it is, a legend. I highly doubt it is what causing all this hocus pocus."
"But you have to admit, sir, everything that has been happening seems to be a bit...supernatural. I mean this is Amity Park after all." He took a breathe. "I think we need some professional help."
Mr. Takagawa, tightened his fists, and sighed. He really didn't want to do this, to ask them for help but what choice does he have. This was beyond his know how. Swallowing his pride, he turned to his assistant.
"Mr. Milo, make the call NOW!"
"Yes sir."
***********************************************************************************
[Nasty Burger]
"Danny, what happened in there?" asked Sam. After enduring two hours of cleaning the classroom and listening to Mr. Lancer about slacking off, Danny left and headed for Nasty Burger. As soon as they sat at a table and ordered, Sam and Tucker questioned him.
"What else, Sam, I fell asleep in Mr. Lancer's class and got detention again. Nothing new."
"Yeah, we're used to that dude, but we're talking about what happened when you dozed off. You were talking in your sleep." Tucker said.
"Really?" Danny asked, confused. "Well, Jazz did mention I do sleep talk sometimes."
"In Japanese?" Sam answered back.
"What?"
"No one really heard it because you were mumbling, but it sounded like Japanese to me."
"Here, I made a recording." Tucker took out his PDA. "No else was able to understand you because you were mumbling most of the time. Luckily we were sitting next to you to catch what you were saying." He played back the recording. In the first few seconds, Danny was mumbling softly. Then his words started to sound louder and clear to those close to him.
"Arashi ga kite imasu."
"That means A storm is coming." Sam translated.
"Watashitachi no unmei wa, mangetsu no yoru ni karamiaumasu."
"Our fates will intertwine on the night of the full moon."
"Oni no me ni wa chūi shite kudasai"
Beware of the Demon's Eye.
Kore wa hajimari ni sugimasen
This is only the beginning.
Tucker paused the recording.
"I really said that?" Danny asked, scratching his head.
"Yup," Tucker confirmed
"But why would I say something like that? In Japanese no less? I don't even know Japanese."
"I checked the recording twice, Danny," explained Sam. "and there is no doubt you were speaking Japanese."
"Wait, how do you even know Japanese?"
"My parents are always trying to drag me along to their formal gatherings. Most of their business partners are in the foreign division. So they signed me up for foreign languages in middle school, Japanese was one of them."
"This is getting weird for my taste and I hunt ghosts. I'm saying stuff in riddles and in a language I never learned. Well, at least I'm not rhyming." Danny shuttered at the memory.
"Maybe watching all those subbed movies are finally paying off. Who says watching ninjas, Godzilla and sword fighting samurais are not fun and educational." Tucker shrugged.
"Samurai?" That word stuck his mind. A flash of red, long silver hair, a sword by his side.
Just then, Danny's eyes widen in realization, as he remembered something. "Are you sure I said "a storm is coming" and a red moon."
Sam nodded. "Positive, why?"
"Because that the same thing the guy said in my dream."
"Guy? What guy?" Both of his friends asked.
Before Danny could explain more, his ghost sense went off. People outside were screaming and running away in fear. The trio ran outside to find the source.
Screams were heard and the electronic store nearby filled with flashing lights and electricity. Surges of electricity started to spread through the area, causing telephone line to snap apart and for live wires to fly. Acting on instinct, Danny ran behind the alley and a second later, he flew out as his alter ego. Sam and Tucker had already started to clear the streets of pedestrians. They had a feeling this was going to be messy.
A huge surge of electricity shot of a t.v. screen and aimed across the street, hitting a large shop sign and loosing it's supports. Underneath the leaning sign was an old man with a cane, walking along side a 7 year old girl.
"Oh No!" Danny yelled "Hey, get out of there!" They didn't hear him. He rushed towards them. "Look out!" This time they heard him and turned their attention to the ghost boy.
The supports snapped and the board sign began to fall. As the shadow above them grew, the old man and little girl looked up and were too stunned to move. Luckily, Danny got there just in time pull them out of the way. A second later and they would have become pancakes.
"Phew, that was close." Danny breathed heavily in relief. He looked at his save, the old man was a bit shaken up but looked unharmed. He was holding close what appeared to be his granddaughter, who was trembling.
"Are you two, ok?" The man was staring at the spot where they once were standing and then looked up at Danny. His face, shown was with sudden terror, slowly turned to a smile of gratitude.
"Yes, we are alright. Just a bit shaken up." The old man replied. "Thank you my boy. You saved us." Danny smiled. It was quite rare to hear someone thank him as Phantom, since some of the town still has negative opinion about him. Overall he was just glad they were okay.
Suddenly, an evil cackle filled the air, as the sparks of electricity formed at the electronic store. Shooting out of the t.v. displays was an upgraded Technus. Except something felt a bit off about him. He covered in electronics parts and wires, modified in an ungraded battle suit, with spikes covered in electricity, his aura felt a bit dark and his eyes were blood red and full of anger.
In a dark robotic voice he spoke. "Behold! It is I, Technus, master of all things Science and Technology."
Danny turned to the old man. "You better get out of here. Get somewhere safe." The old man nodded and quickly took his granddaughter away from the area.
"Tucker, start hacking his systems. Sam, get to the side and be ready to fire." They nodded and moved to position as Danny flew up to Technus.
"Hey Sparky, what's up? Doing computer shopping today?" Danny taunted.
"You! Don't look so smug, ghost child because today will be the day of your demise. .For I have upgraded to a superior form." He demonstrated by sending a lightning bolt at a car and set it on flames. "This is the end for you and now I shall take over the world."
"Oh really? You and what army?"
Technus's smile widen. "Me and this army. Mwhahaha." He pressed a button on the side of his arm and a swarm of small, but weaponized drones.
"Oh boy."
"Hehehe. Attack!" Danny flew into action as the drones zoomed towards him. He swiftly dodge the projectiles, trying to lose them. Unfortunately, another group of drones blocks his way and started shooting lasers. Quickly, he turned intangible and used his ecto rays to shoot down the drones.
Sam kept herself busy by shooting down the modified drones with her wrist ray. Tucker was busy trying to wirelessly connect his PDA to Technus mainframe.
The swarm scattered, zooming back and forth, too fast for Danny to see. He didn't even notice a couple of drones formed into the shape of a fist and slammed him from behind.
"Ow. Tucker, what's taking so long?" Danny sensed an upcoming ray of heat and avoid a drone shootting flames.
"I'm trying. He keeps resetting the programing. It's keeps adapting to my viruses in incredible speed. It's nothing I have ever seen before."
"Hahaha, you can not defeat me this time." His red eyes glowed better. Power is coursing through my circuits, I am unstoppable. And let us not forget I have my hive drone army. These devices are state of the art and with my firewall, it will impossible for your techno friend to hack. Victory is mine." He send a wave of drones to attack Tucker. Tucker dodged out of the way, while Danny and Sam continued to shoot.
"We'll see about that." Tucker adjusted his glasses and started to type furiously into his PDA. "No one can out hack the Tuck. Just need two minutes, Danny."
"Make it count." Danny flew up, trying to get close to Technus. Yet everytime, a wall of modified drones blocked his way and attacked.
The drones moved like a hive. It surrounded Danny, moving like a cyclone. Focusing, he released his energy to blast them away and escape the cyclone. He spotted Technus making more drones from technology near the area.
And just for a moment, he saw something. In the center of his chest, a faint glow of pink appeared in his sight. 'What is that?'
The remaining drones continued to shoot lasers at him. While he set a barrier to protect himself, Sam jumped in and took out the drones. She blew the fumes and smirked. "Bulleye."
"Looks like you were saved by your girlfriend once again, ghost child."
They both paused and blushed. "She's not my girlfriend !" Danny exclaimed, followed by Sam's "I'm not his girlfriend."
"Whatever, you both are outdated. Prepare to be deleted." Technus shouted as he blasted an ecto beam and sent another swarm of drones at Sam and Danny. Danny grabbed Sam, and flew out of the way. The swarm followed.
"We need to get rid of these drones."
"I got an idea." and Sam whispered her plan. He dropped Sam off on the ground and speeded towards the swarm. "You can't catch me, plastic rejects." He flew on the opposite direction and the swarm followed. He made sure he flew near any strayed drones and got them to fly after him. Soon, every single drone was after him nonstop, following everywhere he flew.
"Time to end this." He changed course, "Who wants to play chicken?" and aim straight for Technus.
"What!!?? No NO! Change course! Change course!" But the drones were already locked in their target and could not change their flight path.
"Coming through," at the last second, Danny turned intangable and flew harmlessly through Technus. Unfortunately, it can not be said the same for drones and since he was too big due to his upgrade, Technus was not fast enough to avoid he collision.
CRASH
"I can see why they are a hive mind, they can only handle one thought, chasing me."
Beep beep beep "YES!" Tucker cheered. "I'm in." Technus's suit started to fizzle and the drone army came apart. "Oh yeah, I am good."
"NO NO NO I will not be stopped. I will destroy you." Technus moved towards the group, planning to attack them.
"Tucker, why is he still moving. I thought you shut him down."
"Looks like he is excreting power from a separate power source.
Danny caught sight of the glow in Technus's chest again. Taking the chance, he shot a strong ghost ray directly at the spot. Pain coursed through Technus's body, and the suit exploded.
The smoke cleared and in the middle of the rubble was a weakened and dizzy Technus.
"Don't think this is the end! I will be back. You can't stop the manipulator of machines."
"Whatever." Danny took out his thermos and captured Technus. "Great job, guys."
"Told you no one can out hack Tucker Foley." said Tucker, puffing up his chest in pride.
"Because no one is a better nerd than you, Tucker." Sam sarcastically commented.
"Gee, thanks. Wait. Hey!" Sam and Danny laughed at the insult, as Danny changed back to human form. That is when he noticed something at the corner of eye. There was something on the ground, near the destroyed suit remains. He walked towards it. He bend down and picked it up. Sam and Tucker walked over to see. In his hand was a pink shard.
"Danny, what is it?" Sam asked.
"Not sure. It looks like a crystal."
It started to faintly glow, similar to the glow Danny saw earlier. It felt warm in his hand, almost alive. 'Was this what I saw in Technus?'
Before he could process more, the trio heard the familiar sound of a musical horn and the roaring engines of the Fenton Family Assault Vehicle. They quickly hid their ghost gear and Danny shoved the shard into his pocket as the vehicle stopped near them and the window opened, revealing Danny's dad in the driver's seat. "Hey, Danny, Sam, Tucker, what are you three doing here?" Jack looked around at the previous battle field. "Man, what happened here? Was it a ghost?" He was readying his bazzoka.
"Uh, no, no. No ghosts here." The trio answered with convincing smiles. Jack spotted a discarded computer from Technus's suit.
Tucker noticed this and added "There was a huge blowout sale at Stereo Shack. All electronic parts were 50% off. You could say it was killer."
"Oh, we could use some new circuit boards," Maddie said. "Too bad, we don't have time right now. We need to head to museum ASAP."
The trio raised their eyebrows in confusion. "The museum, why are you going to the museum?" asked Danny.
"The assistant of the museum's curator called and asked for our professional expertise. There have been ghost activities occurring in the new exhibit." The trio gasped in surprise.
"Yeah, apparently, the guy thinks it's because of the curse of the Demon's Eye. Jack laughed as he wiggled his fingers in a spooky matter and spoke in a haunting voice at the last part.
Danny gasped. 'Curse of the Demon's Eye?'
A storm is coming.
Beware of the Demon's Eye.
