I don't own Danny Phantom or any of the characters. They are doing a life sentence to their original owners without the chance of parole. Enjoy part 21 of the halfa siblings.

Pandora's realm 10 PM

Jazz returns to the realm she lives in only to find Pandora waiting at the front door for her. Jazz like Danny due to living with Pandora for the past 8 years could easily tell Pandora's mood just by the expression she kept on her face, and needless to say if looks could kill Jazz would be all ghost instead of just the halfa that she was.

'I don't know what happened to make Pandora upset, but I better stay clear of her until she cools down some.' Jazz thought to herself trying to get past Pandora.

It wasn't until she felt a hand grab her by the collar and stop her advance that Jazz knew her thoughts were just about impossible.

"Going somewhere young lady?" Pandora asked in a tone that told Jazz most of what she needed to know.

"Pandora I had a hard day at the swim meet, and worse to where my meet was attacked by some idiots after my brother and Danielle. So can't this wait until the morning?" Jazz asked.

"No it can't young lady as it deals with you breaking one of the rules I laid down some time ago." Pandora explained tapping her foot.

"I haven't been dating anyone that you don't know about. If it is about me being home late remember I was on a swim meet with my school and we just got back. Neither of us have brought back anything less than A's since we have been here so I know it isn't that. Lastly neither of us used our powers unless they were absolutely necessary so…"

"So why are you using your powers to protect Amity when I mentioned specify we wouldn't be doing that?" Pandora explained in a stern tone. "You are needlessly putting yourself in danger and by doing so you are not only attracting unwanted attention to yourself but you are putting yourself in the eternal trap of the hero." Pandora explained with a massive tone change.

"Pandora you know how I feel about helping people and saving lives. That is something very important to me, and while being a neurosurgeon is a great way to do that, I won't be able to do that until I get my PHD in neuroscience which won't be for another for another 7-10 years." Jazz started. "But didn't you also tell me it was ok if I used my powers to protect those whose who are most important to me?" Jazz asked getting a nod from Pandora. "Well while not on the same level as my little brother or yourself the people of Amity are also very important to me." Jazz continued very passionately.

As Pandora and Jazz continued to go at it back in forth trying to get the other to see their point a certain silver haired preteen watched the scene along with the living storm himself. Of all the ghosts in the ghost zone that weren't friend or foe to Danny Vortex and him had the rockiest of relationships and it wasn't only on Danny's end either.

The fact that Danny thanks to Frostbite's tutelage had cyrokinetic powers that were on par with his bothered Vortex greatly. As for Danny the fact that Vortex wanted to crush his mommy Pandora even though she could mop the floor with him greatly bothered him as well. However both of them shared one common link so they decided to call a truce. While normally Vortex loved chaos especially when it came to the weather seeing his friend/pupil getting ripped into bothered him greatly.

"Pandora is trying to contain a cyclone which is something you don't do child. Though I must know how did she even find out about this?" Vortex asked the young halfa.

"My human friends mentioned it when they tried to convince mommy Pandora to let me join her. However, unlike my sister I choose to listen to mommy Pandora. Though I might get in trouble as well seeing as I knew about Jazz's secret and didn't tell." Danny explained to the living storm.

No sooner did Danny answer Vortex's question did the two of them see a 234 mile an hour moving Jazz flying away screaming "Why can't you understand Pandora?!" Before vanishing out of the young halfa's and weather ghost's sight.

"I will go after your sister and you speak with Pandora child." Vortex said firmly. "Before you ask while we both can talk to your sister, out of the two of us only you can keep that raging Greek ghost from going over where as me she would go postal." Vortex explained before taking off in the direction of the teenage halfa.

Pandora completely upset Jazz for her refusal to listen to her reasons did the one thing she could to calm herself down. Unleash massive fireballs as random targets, while firing lightning bolts at others.

"'Why can't you understand Pandora?!' Why can't you understand the danger you are putting yourself into by doing this? You are not only locking yourself in the hero trap, but you will gain enemies that want to destroy you!" Pandora said as she continued her target practice. "Those Guys in White characters that attacked your brother and Danielle are some prime examples!" Pandora hissed as she launched several fireballs that Danny either went intangible to avoid or straight out dodged.

"Mommy Pandora, how do you know about those guys that attacked me today? Also what did you exactly say that caused Jazz to fly off screaming 'Why can't you understand Pandora?'" Danny asked causing Pandora to stop what she was doing and look at her youngest child.

Upon hearing her youngest ask her a question the fuming Greek ghost took several deep calming breaths not wanting to misdirect her anger.

"Mrs. Macho gave me a phone call earlier explaining about what happened at the swim meet, and how you protected everyone there. For that Danny I am proud of you doing the right thing. If it hadn't been for you everyone there might have become ghosts like me." Pandora said placing her hand on her son's shoulder. "As for what I told her she was no longer allowed to be the protector of Amity. Of course Jazz didn't take it too well." Pandora explained with a frown on her face.

"Saving lives is something that is very important to Jazz just like her dream of being a neurosurgeon. When you told her she couldn't be Amity protector it was like telling her she is forbidden to saving lives." Danny explained remembering his conversation with his sister a few years back.

Flashback Amity park one day after the Pandora's box incident

"Jazz you heard what mommy Pandora told the town and us yesterday. We aren't allowed to be the heroes of this town." Danny replied causing Jazz to shake her head.

"Danny what we did yesterday felt so right. We have had our powers for 5 years, and while we have been trained to use them to protect each other, I feel we can do so much more with our abilities than we have. I mean what happens if something like what happened yesterday happens again? If I listen to Pandora and do nothing than people could possibly lose their lives, and you know I feel about saving lives." Jazz explained causing Danny to nod. "Besides Danny you also have the makings and the attitude of a hero as well. You will fight tooth and nail to protect those who are most important to you."

"But if mommy Pandora finds out…"

"I refuse to ignore those who need help little brother, and I don't care what anyone else tells me! While I love you and Pandora I have a gift and I refuse to let it go to waste by doing nothing. If you won't join me then promise me you will keep this secret to yourself. While I don't care what Pandora says on the matter I rather not be punished for doing what is right." Jazz explained causing Danny to hesitate for a moment.

Ever since Danny had moved in with Pandora he looked up to her and treated her as if she were his real mother. The closeness he had with the giant Greek ghost was greater than the former closeness he had with Maddie. One could dare say it rivaled that if not matched the closeness he shared with Jazz. This didn't go unnoticed by Jazz who walked up to her little brother and pulled him into a tight hug.

"I know this is a lot to ask of you Danny but could you please…"

"Ok Jazz I promise I won't tell mommy Pandora about this. 'Unless it is truly necessary'" Danny said thing the last part to himself while still feeling the conflict within.

End Flashback

"Please don't me angry with Jazz about having me make that promise, she only wanted to do what she felt was right kind of like the way I fight touch and nail for those I care for." Danny pleaded earning a sigh from Pandora.

Upon hearing her youngest speak any anger her would have had while listening to his story quickly evaporated. No instead of the raging Greek god that normally struck fear into even the strongest ghosts in the ghost zone Danny saw what very few saw. The kind thoughtful gal that was buried under a mountain of rage and fury.

"While she is doing what she loves, I still worry about her safety. As it stands being the kind of hero she wants to be comes with a territory." Pandora said before her tone became darker. "It may already be too late but the moment you choose that path you have to in a sense give up a part of your humanity to do so which is something I personally didn't want for Jazz. With you Danny even if something happened like your other personally took control and did unspeakable things before being brought down none of us would think any different of you seeing as we are all close to you. However, if something like that happened to Jazz well I truly don't know if the town's people would be as forgiving." Pandora explained calmly.

"To be honest with you, I don't think Jazzy pants would let that stop her from being a hero no more then it would stop me from protecting those I care for with all my heart." Danny explained earning another smile from his foster mother.

"Can you tell me exactly why were those idiots were after you and Danielle?" Pandora asked changing the subject only for Danny's eyes to glow a bright green.

"Those idiots wanted Danielle so they could abuse the wish granting powers she inherited from Desiree. The only thing that prevented them from doing so was the fact that her powers didn't become active yet." Danny thought darkly. "Then they attacked everyone below and Jazz was unable to do anything without revealing her secret. I didn't tell Jazz about this but the feeling I felt when I was ready to kill that vampire ghost came back again. That other me was also telling me to do it because they were a threat to not only Jazz but Danielle as well." Danny explained causing Pandora to nod in understanding.

"Well the important thing was that you didn't give into what your other half was…"

"But I did mommy Pandora." Danny said a frantic tone. "When I saw them so willing to kill Jazz just so they could get Danielle I was willing to do anything to protect Danielle and Jazz even if it meant taking their lives. I could have easily sent those missiles to any other place I knew was empty, but instead I redirected their attack back at them." Danny explained nearly on the verge of tears. "If it wasn't for them actually surviving I would have crossed that line. I would have been the one thing I vowed never to be a monster!" Danny explained now with full-fledged tears in his eyes before flying off with leaving Pandora and Cerberus who had just walked in feeling upset.

'My oldest is upset with me because I want to protect her at the cost of telling her she can't do what she loves, and my youngest is upset because he feels he is a monster for doing what was needed to protect those he cared for.' Pandora thought to herself before she used a skill her children taught her a few years back.

"Cerberus you stay here just in case Danny,and/ or Jazz come back. We are going to find my babies and make this right." Pandora and clone Pandora said in unison before leaving her realm and flying off in different directions.

GIW headquarters

"Julia how is the progress doing on the agents Fancy, Brain, Choo Choo, and Spook?"

"Agents, Fancy, and Brain, will be back to full health in less than an hour. However, agent Spook due to the harsher beating he took from the leader will be out for a total of 3 hours." Julia answered in a deadpan tone.

"Ouch I am glad I wasn't in his shoes. Cause if I was I doubt there would have been anything left of me to heal." Benny answered as he looked at the three capsules filled with green fluid.

Thanks to his most recent studies on a ghost's natural healing abilities he was able to create a special super concentrated liquid that contained the natural properties of a ghost's healing ectoplasm. This in turn accelerated the natural healing process of anyone or anything put into it by as much as 1,000%. While the stuff couldn't help regenerate limbs or missing body parts as of yet, Benny was well on the way to trying to create this as well. It was so successful that the GIW leader herself asked him to make a special capsule for her personal use which was one of the reasons why she was at her physical peek.

"What about agent Choo, Choo, how has the process of enhancing his Psychokinetic powers been going?" Benny asked somewhat satisfied with the other agents healing progress.

"My sensors indicate that his overall progress has increased by 10% since he has been strapped up to the machine. He can remain in there for 2 more hours before the overall progress becomes life threatening to him."

Benny upon looking at the capsule with a murky red liquid smiled once again at yet another success he had not to long ago. While he actually had help from his AI Julia in making this one, Benny took great pride in knowing that with the help of this invention anyone who had Psychokinetic powers could get a slight boost in power without it being lethal warrant they didn't stay in the chamber too long.

"See to it that when that time is up, you eject him out of the machine, and isn't put back into the machine until it is safe. I refuse to watch another life or lives be lost on my watch." Benny explained not wanting to endanger the welfare his fellow GIW agent.

"Father, I know you are doing all of this in the memory of your daughter and for me, but you are working yourself into the ground. Please take a break and get some rest after you finish this experiment. I am just as capable of handling the process seeing as you created me as an extension of…"

"No Julia, you aren't an extension of myself, and you aren't a replacement for my first born. Even if you are artificial, and have the most advanced AI I could create you are still my second daughter remember that." Benny explained to this creation. "While you do have some loyalty to me programmed into your AI you are still..."

"Agent Benny, how is the process of Choo-Choo's psychokinetic enhancement coming?" The GIW leader asked cutting off his thought.

"It is coming along as expected my queen. His overall ability has increased by 10%. However, he will be ejected out of the machine in the next two hours seeing as any longer exposure to the machine's power without a 7 hour break will become life threatening to him." Benny explained.

"It has also been shown that the two 8 year old ghosts we have seen have separated seeing as one is flying towards Fenton works, while the other is flying towards the wishing well. Would you like me to…"

"No I don't want you to try and capture them. In fact I am ordering you to take a break and get some rest! You are one of my best scientist's, and I refuse to have you burn out due to overworking yourself. Failure to comply will result in you getting fired, and me having to format Julia." The GIW leader said striking a nerve with Benny.

'Format Julia? I swear if I didn't need the funds to continue my research I would crash this place myself.' Benny thought to himself while keeping his bearing.

"As you wish my queen. Julia shut down all the projects I have running, and make sure to program the healing chambers to eject Fancy, brain, and Spook out of their capsules when they are done healing. Do the same for Choo-Choo when his…"

"Already done father now do as your queen commands and get some rest. I will be joining you shortly." Julia replied before everything started powering down and Benny took Julia with him.

No sooner did Benny leave the lab did the GIW leader snap her fingers and several of her agents come into the lab.

"Find a way to replicate the Julia program stat! With several of those AI's running the HQ productivity will increase 500%!"

"But ma'am…

"BUT NOTHING! I DON'T PAY YOU TO MAKE EXCUSES! I PAY YOU TO GET RESULTS NOW GO!" The GIW leader ordered causing her grunts to move with a sense of urgency.

Amity Park wishing well 20 minutes later

Desiree couldn't help but sigh as she listened to why he was so upset. While she would have liked to give him the speech she gave him the first time she knew that she couldn't due to Danielle being her own ectoplasmic energy.

"Danny as much as I would love to tell you that I would have done things differently I can't. Believe me when I say this I would have done the exact same thing you did to keep Danielle safe from the monsters." Desiree explained causing Danny to look at her funny.

"I know that, but unlike me you don't have another personality within you telling you to kill people to protect your loved ones" Danny explained causing Desiree to sigh once again.

"I don't need another personally telling me to kill those monsters to protect my daughter. I would have done the very same thing you did Danny and I wouldn't have thought twice about it." Desiree said only to get a worried look from Danny. "Danny think about what happened earlier today what was going on?" Desiree asked knowing the answer.

"Those idiots in white came after me and Danielle. They were willing to do anything to get her to abuse her powers." Danny answered.

"And what was your first thoughts when they attacked?"

"To get, Sam, Tucker, Courtney, and Danielle to safety. Which was why I opened a portal sending the former 3 away. It was then that the idiots in white attacked my sister in attempt to get what they want." Danny continued.

"Did you try to stop them right away, or did you try to lead them away from everyone else?" Desiree asked being very careful with her words.

"I tried to lead them away from my sister and the others, but one of them created a barrier so I couldn't." Danny answered.

"So you couldn't get away from them thanks to one of them Psychokinetic powers, and If I remember correctly you mentioned how you tried everything else you could think off before you went to drastic measure right?" Desiree asked earning a nod from Danny. "Then you have nothing to feel bad about Danny. In fact when pushed to the point that you were at even the most black and white people will cross over to the shade of grey to protect those they care for."

"I learned that lesson when I was 5, but it still doesn't change the fact I was…"

"Yes Danny you are right. I don't change the fact that you listened to the other personality inside you to protect those you cared about. However you not only did it as a last resort, but you are feeling pain due to your decision. That alone proves that you aren't a monster. But besides that did you know that one of the greatest hero's who is also the biggest pacifist even felt these emotions?" Desiree asked getting a head shake from Danny. "Did you know that even he acted on said emotions when he was left no other choice?"

"Really Desiree?" Danny asked finally getting the sense of relief Desiree was hoping for. "I wish I could meet this person and speak with him." Danny said causing Desiree to smile.

"So you have wished it so shall it be.
