"Danny." Zee called out to him the second he stepped out of his homeroom class.

"Yeah Zee?" Danny asked her.

"I need you to put these posters up!" She said before handing him a stack of posters. They were all for a magic show starring her.

"The Amazing Princess of Prestidigitation: Zee Zatara's On Stage Show? This Friday Night?" Danny said reading the poster. "Why-" Danny started before Zee silenced him with her finger.

"I know what you're thinking. And yes, it took way too long for this to happen."

Danny was in no way thinking that. Danny was going to ask her Why am I the one doing it?

Zee then left to put up some more posters for her show.

Zee Zatara was a magician. But she can't say that her performances were well respected like her dad's. Whenever she tries to perform in public people always dismiss her magic as 'fake'. But she knows an audience who's willingly coming to her show would be different.

Right now she's about to put on her own show towards such an audience, and it will be without a doubt crowded.

When the curtain rolled she saw that only her friends were in the audience. This completely baffled and angered her.

"Ugh!" She groaned in frustration before storming off the stage.

"I can't believe it!" Zee said to her friends while they were walking from away from the building. Since they were the only ones in the audience, Zee didn't really feel a need to put on the show anymore. "What went wrong? Why wasn't there an audience!?"

"Could there have been a misprint on the posters?" Karen asked her, trying to be helpful.

"No. I made them with magic so there's no way that's possible." Zee said to her.

"That honestly seems like a waste of magic." Danny said to her.

"Doesn't matter!" Zee said. "Okay. I'll try another show in the park. This time I'll put my ad up on the internet. Maybe then people will come."

Zee then put on another show the next night at the park.

"Okay. This time there will be a crowded audience. With people there to see my show." Zee said to herself, mentally preparing herself for the show she's about to put on.

"This will be the best show you've ever put on!" Zee then teleported onto the stage with a puff of pink smoke, only to once again see that the only people in the park at this time were her friends.

Zee then threw her wand off the stage and stormed right off.

On Sunday night Zee decided to put on another show at the mall and sent a text blast to all the students in the school to make sure that they'll be there. And she made sure that they all knew it was going to be an hour at most. After all, they can spare an hour for her show. Right!?

"Okay Zee. Third times the charm. They won't be able to avoid you this time because you're at the mall. So at least someone would see your show." Zee said to herself while looking at her reflection in the mirror. She then opened up the curtain to see that only her friends were in the audience, once again. And to make matters worse there was barely anyone in the mall at all.

"You've got to be kidding me!" Zee yelled out.

"Okay. I've put on three shows, in three nights, and not one person came to them." Zee said while pacing in front of her friends. "What's going on?"

"Maybe, people aren't into magic anymore?" Danny said to her, not thinking about who he's talking too.

"Huuuuuuuhhh!" Zee gasped. "Hold your tongue!" She said, pointing at Danny.

"Don't worry, Zee. I'm sure you will find out the cause of this soon enough." Diana said to her.

"Yeah. Maybe you're right."

And right she was because when they got to school all of them saw students wearing merchandise with blue flames on it and black punk clothing.

"I think I know the problem." Danny said after seeing the familiar sight. It's so obvious that this was the cause of Zee not getting an audience.

"That they went to a concert?" Kara said to him, noticing a group of teens playing air guitar. "Why didn't I know about this? I'm like the biggest rocker at Metropolis High!"

"Might be because we were helping Zee." Babs said to her.

"This isn't good." Danny said suddenly.

"You bet it isn't!" Zee said fuming. "They all went to some boring concert when they could have been watching my magnificent show!"

"No." Danny said to her. "It's not good because they're under the spell of Ember."

"Who?" Jess asked Danny. The rest of the girls looked as confused as her.

"She's one of my ghostly enemies. And she can be one of the biggest pains in the butt." Danny explained to the girls. "Especially when she has a fanbase."

"So I've been upstaged by a ghost?" Zee asked him, still fuming about the whole matter.

"Yeah. Pretty much." Danny said to her, not thinking at all about how he just responded to her.

"Are you sure this is the right place?" Zee asked Danny. "Because I'm not even seeing a stage."

"I see a bunch of people wearing her merchandise," Danny said to her, "so it's either a concert, or these guys are here for no reason."

"Why is she even selling merchandise?" Babs asked him. "Why does a ghost even need money?"

"Too pay for her stage, tour bus, and the instruments of her band?" Danny suggested to her.

And a huge torrent of blue fire started to surge in the center of the park. Luckily, and surprisingly, no one got burnt from the flame, and when the flames died down, a stage appeared from where it originally was burning. And on it was Ember and her band.

"Hmph. How simple and cliché." Zatanna muttered at the sight.

"Hey Metropolis! You ready to rock!?" Ember said on a microphone to her audience.

"YEAHHH!" The audience roared back at her. When Danny took a look at their eyes he saw that all of them were glowing red. "EMBER! EMBER! EMBER!" Her flaming hair then got bigger.

"That should be my name there chanting." Zatanna said, getting angrier by the minute.

"Then what are we waiting for!?"

But before she could start singing, Danny blasted her off the stage with a ghost ray.

"I'm waiting for you to learn how to carry a tune." Danny said to her while floating down in front of her. Ember however got up and said to Danny

"As if you can understand my music." Ember said to him.

"Shouldn't you be in Amity Park?" Danny asked her. "Somewhere I won't have to fight you?"

"Hah. Take it up with my tour manager."

She then strummed her guitar sending her attacks at him. Danny dodged her attacks and when he was about to attack her someone else already did it before him. Because a purple blast of energy sent Ember flying.

When Danny looked back he saw the girls behind him. And in front of them was a very angry looking Zee. Who then started to fire off repeated shots at Ember, all of them hitting their mark. Danny then brought out his thermos and was about to catch Ember with it, but Zee just kept blasting at her.

"Zatanna, I think she's down." Danny said to her, grabbing her shoulder. But Zatanna just shrugged him off.

"Now it's time to finish off this show stealer!" Zee said before casting a spell.

"Yfirtep!" She shot at Ember who was able to dodge it completely this time.

"Magic? Well let me cast a spell of my own!" Ember said before strumming her guitar which sent an attack shaped like a musical note at Zatanna who was too slow to dodge, but Danny pushed her out of the way in time.

Unfortunately the attack hit a different target. The rest of the team.

"Oh great." Danny said. "Avoided the frying pan, but jumped straight into the fire."

"Looks like I got a new security team." Ember said to Danny and Zatanna. "And for the first day on the job, take out the trash." Supergirl then fired off her heat vision at them but Danny turned both of them intangible before the attack could land.

"Zee get us out of here!" Danny said to her.

"Evom!" Zee said with both of them teleporting.

"Heh. He's got the magician but I got the rest." Ember said looking at her new slaves. "And that's all I need.""

Okay Zee. It's us against the rest of the team." Danny said while they were hiding out in Fenton Works. The reason they were hiding out there was because it would have been safer than the base at Sweet Justice.

However Zee was freaking out quite a bit.

"I can't believe it. Because of me, she got all of our friends! What do we do? What can we do!?" However Danny grabbed her shoulders and started to shake her. "Calm down Zee!"

When she was less frazzled Danny stopped shaking her. Zee looked straight into his eyes and saw his determination in them, which was calming her down a bit.

"We'll save them. We just need to figure out how." Danny then removed his hands from her shoulders.

Fortunately for them, Jack Fenton came into the room at that exact moment. His hair was messy and the bags under his eyes made him look sleep deprived.

"Hey Danny! Come check out my new invention! The Ecto-Retro!" However Jack noticed that there was someone else over there. "Oh. And I see you've brought a friend over. Come on! Let me show you how it works."

"We should probably go." Danny said to her after they heard that. "His track record for making inventions useful for a specific time speaks for itself."

"Well if you say so." Zee said to him, because dealing with ghosts was Danny's everyday life. They were then in the lab basement with Jack showing off his Ecto-Retro.

"Now I'm sure you're both wondering, what exactly the Ecto-retro does. "Jack said to them. In his hand was a needle and syringe attached to a blaster.

"Well it's simple. It temporarily weakens a ghost's powers." Jack said to them holding it like he's going to fire it off at the first ghost who appears in his lab.

"Only temporarily?" Danny asked his dad. Doesn't seem like his dad to make an invention that only has a temporary effect.

"Turns out the ecto energy in a ghost's body can't be permanently lowered by one shot." Jack explained to them.

"But it can be lowered for as long as it takes me to finish off an entire pie." So a minute at most. Danny thought to himself, not saying it out loud because he didn't want to get grounded right now.

"Which will give us enough time to tear the ghost molecule by molecule"

"But unfortunately, I have no idea how I manage to do this." Jack said to them. "So hopefully nothing will happen to it." A

"Now if you'll excuse me, it's time for pie." Jack said, putting down the Ecto-Retro and taking a pie out of somewhere and heading upstairs.

"Where was he-" Zee started to ask but Danny said to her

"Fenton family secret." Danny said to her. "Can't tell anyone where we put weapons or other objects."

"And we better hurry. He'll be back in a minute." Danny said to Zee, before going ghost, grabbing the Ecto-Retro and Zee and flying out of the building.

"Mmm. Now where did I leave off?" Jack said before coming back downstairs and saw that neither Danny nor the girl who was with him were there.

A slight grin formed on Jack's face. "Go get her son."

Danny was flying over Ember's concert, looking out for the then landed behind a bush to take a look at what was going on, but what they saw was Ember putting the team to work on setting up a Livestream for her concert.

"Really?" Danny said when he saw this. "Can't she do something else? Something she's essentially haven't done before?" Because this seems a little lazy to him.

"I see Babs and Karen!" Zee whispered to him. They were working the camera and other tech based stuf .

"But where are the other three?" Danny asked.

"Looked behind you?" Ember's voice said to them. When they turned around they saw Ember being flanked by the missing three.

"Get them while I put on my show!" Ember ordered the girls who all then charged at Danny and Zee.

"Take it!" Danny said tossing the Ecto-Retro over to Zee. Zee then teleported away and Danny turned intangible and went underground to escape them. But this didn't dissuade them as Supergirl just picked up a chunk of the earth to look for him. Danny however was already behind her and delivered her a punch to the face, sending her flying quite a bit but not far enough for him, considering who it was, and she won't be staying down for long.

"I don't want to do this,so sorry." Danny said to Green Lantern and Wonder Woman. Danny fired off ice blasts at each of them, however Diana used her shield to block the ice attacks, freezing it over completely with the ice attaching it to the ground, and Jessica created a barrier which perfectly protected her.

Jess then created a giant sword with her ring and with the ring, swung it at Danny. Danny was able to dodge the first strike, and the second. But when she slashed with the third attack, it stopped mid strike, and her body started to shake, as if she was trying to fight off the mind control.

"Sorry Jess." Danny said when he saw this.

Danny fired off a ghost ray in return, forcing her down.

"Hiyaaaaaah!" A female voice yelled from behind him and Danny saw that it was Diana who proceeded to slash him with her sword, which harmlessly passed through his body.

"Nice try." Danny said to her.

Danny then felt a cold wind come at his direction freezing his body. Danny then melted the ice off with his ghost rays.

"Alright." Danny said to the girl in front of him. "I just need to knock them out." Danny said. "Which is a lot easier said than done with Supergirl."

Danny was then blasted from behind, but this blast felt weird, because he felt no pain from it. "What?" Danny muttered, but as soon as he said that word, he transformed back into his human form. "What? Oh no. Zee!" Danny immediately realized what was going on here but before he could do anything Jess trapped him in a green barrier.

Zee teleported onto the backstage. When she looked back at the ensuing battle she knew that she had to fulfill her part of the plan.

Zee then aimed the Ecto-Retro at Ember but before she could take a shot at her she was tackled by Batgirl, and accidentally sent her shot off somewhere else.

"Sorry, Babs." Zee said while struggling against her. "Ezeerf!" She shot her magic spell at Batgirl, freezing her solid. She then felt a painful sting on her arm. She turned around and saw that it was Karen who was already shrunken down.

"Paz " she said, zapping Karen down like a bug who touched a bug zapper. "Sorry." Zee said while Karen turned back into her regular size and fainted. She then glared at Ember performing onstage. Stealing her audience, taking control of her friends and making her fight them? Oh, she's going to pay.

She then pointed the Ecto-Retro at Ember who was on stage. But before she could someone grabbed her from behind and restrained both her body and her mouth, causing her to accidentally drop the Ecto-Retro.

When she attempted to look down she saw strong, tanned arms.

Diana!

Zee then saw that they managed to capture Danny, who was forced into his human form.

What happened!? He couldn't have been beaten this quickly! Zee then remembered the stray shot she fired off before. It managed to hit Danny. It's official. The world being conquered will be her fault.

Ember then finished her first performance and headed backstage.

"It's over." Ember said to her with a smug tone in her voice, picking up the Ecto-Retro. "Soon the entire world will be under my control."

But Zee got an idea. An idea so crazy it just might work. Zee then bit Diana's finger, forcing her to release her mouth.

"Orter-Otce, mia dna tih Rebme!" The Ecto-Retro then vanished from Ember' hand and fired one more blast off at her. The flames on Ember's head diminished, but not to the point they were extinguished. At this Jess dropped the barrier Danny was in, managing to regain control of herself.

"Good to have you back." Danny said to her.

"Thanks. What do you need me to do?" Jess asked him. Danny wanted to tell her to get some rest, but he knew that wouldn't fly right now. So Danny handed off the easier job to her.

"How long can you hold everyone back?" Danny asked her. "A few minutes?"

"Alright then-" But Danny saw a blast of blue fire head towards him and put up a ghost shield to protect himself, unfortunately Danny was pushed back.

"Zee, do something about the crowd!" Danny said to her while firing ghost rays off at Ember. Ember simply hit them with her guitar

"What?" Zee asked him, confused.

"She still has control over them, so they can still chant her name, but if something manages to shock them, then she'll lose all of her power!" And when Zee started to hear them over the sounds of battle, she heard them chanting 'Ember!'.

But Ember was then starting to overpower Danny.

"Zee hurry up. You're the Princess of Prestidigitation, aren't you!" Danny yelled at her.

Zee then resolved herself to do it. She'll put on a jaw dropping show and save her friends.

"Okay! Ladies, and gentlemen, boys and girls, ready yourself for the show of a lifetime! From the Magical, mystical, Zatanna!"

Behind her huge words spelling out her name appeared.

"Now I'll be needing a volunteer. Anyone?" Zee said making a empty box appear

Ember was then thrown in the box.

"There's one!" Danny said to her, panting.

"Why thank you for volunteering!" Zee said to her. Zee then closed the box and with a wave of her wand, she then levitated the box off the ground. With one tap of her wand on the box she made it disappear in a puff of sparkles.

"Alakazam!" She yelled

She then brought out a tiny version of said box, and showed it off to the crowd.

"Alakazam!" She yelled opening it, revealing a now tiny Ember.

"What!?" Tiny Ember yelled surprised, and when the crowd saw magic like that, they were shocked beyond all comprehensible belief, breaking her control over them.

"Whoa!" One of the members in the audience said.

Zee then closed the box and tossed it up in the air, causing it to explode in a sea of sparkles that enveloped the entire audience.

Zee then pulled out a curtain from somewhere and held it up. Once she moved it they all saw Ember on her knees and hands, panting, the flames on her hair nearly extinguished.

"Zatanna! Zatanna! Zatanna!" They all started to chant a different name. Zee then started to bow in front of the audience with a smile on her face.

Danny then pointed the thermos at Ember and said,

"Shows over." And sucked her into the thermos. Danny then found the Ecto-Retro perfectly and surprisingly safe, and picked it up.

"Phew~"

"Well that was quite a performance, wasn't it?" Zee said to her friends.

"Yeah, and it only cost nearly giving up the world to do it." Danny said to her.

"And unfortunately we were not able to do anything, falling prey to the siren's spell." Diana said regretfully.

"Anyway, I hope this will make people appreciate magic." Zee said to her friends.

"If it's you putting on a show, I can't imagine anyone not liking it." Danny said to her.

"Thanks." Zee said before hugging him from behind and letting go just as quickly.

"I better hurry, daddy will start to get worried the later I am." Zee said to him before teleporting away.

"...What was that about?" Danny asked himself.

"So Ember failed?" Vlad asked the ghost who appeared to be a high tech robot with a flaming green mohawk.

"(Un)fortunately yes." Skulker said to him.

"Well it was to be expected." Vlad said to him. "But we did manage to get information about Daniel's new teammates. And they are far superior than the old ones."

Vlad then looked at the object on his desk. A crown enveloped in green flames.

"But at this point, we can't be stopped. Soon, I'll rule everything."

What is Vlad planning?! Why does he have the Crown of Fire!? Find out soon, on Dragon Ba- I mean A Phantom Hero in Metropolis!

And a shout out for TheWhiteTitan for the Danny Phantom/ DCSHG fanart. Would love to have it as a cover, but for the moment I'm working on a phone and have no idea how to set it as a cover.
