I do not 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 16 of Sleeping with the Devil 2.0.

Fenton works basement 11 PM

Sam frowned as she snuck into her best friend's home without permission. Ever since she got that mystery E-mail giving her what she figured to be either critical information if true or a waste of time if false Sam decided to invest several hours on the subject in the hopes of even proving said info true or false. However, when all of the leads she searched turned out to be dead ends Sam did everything in her power not to scream in frustration. With her best friend and crush falling even further down the rabbit hole the longer time passed on Sam decided to go to the man or rather the ghost with all the answers.

'I have to be sure this is the only way and that I am not making a mistake. I have made enough of those and they are costing me.' Sam thought to herself as she moved as quickly and quietly as she could.

Seeing that the ghost portal was closed for whatever reason Sam went to the main keypad and proceeded to punch in the password Danny gave her. However, upon doing so the system rejected the password and upon seeing the message left my Maddie Sam narrowed her eyes.

'This is just great! Mrs. Fenton just had to decide today was the day she would actually be a responsible parent by trying to keep Danny away from Spectra and Desiree by deleting his password. Pfft like it would work anyways seeing as he can teleport where ever he wants.' Sam thought to herself remembering how Danny did so the day a month ago.

Seeing that all of her work was for naught Sam pulled away from the console and was about to leave when a voice stopped her in her tracks.

"The password for Madeline Fenton's access code is Daniel-R-Fenton."

Upon hearing the words that sounded completely computer driven Sam turned and upon seeing the console screen did all she could to keep herself cool. Inside to computer mainframe Sam saw a strawberry blond woman with long flowing hair that not only covered part of her face and right eye, but went halfway down her back, while changing her eyes in match her strawberry blond hair. Her already ample bosom swelled from a large D cup to a medium DD, while her hips and backside while becoming less ample became more slender and toned in the process.

Deciding she had nothing truly to lose if by trying this Sam opened Maddie's username and upon putting in her password the computer began the process of unlocking the ghost portal.

"Who are you, and why did you help me? I know you can't be a program that Danny's parents programmed." Sam asked.

"Who I am is of no importance to you. As for why I helped you let's just say that despite being just a computer program I know how it feels to be rejected by someone you love. Now go do what you were originally going to do before Danny's parents find out you are down here." Hologram Maddie explained.

Not needing to be told twice Sam opened the Specter Speeder turned on the device and within less than 5 seconds went into the ghost zone before Hologram Maddie closed it behind her. Already knowing where the young girl was going placed a smile on the computer program's face.

'Soon 'Lamb Chop's' plan will come crashing down, if everything works in my favor he won't have anything not even me. I am guessing he forgot the one absolute rule that all men should know. Hell have no fury like a woman's scorn.' Hologram Maddie through to herself before leaving the Fenton mainframe along with removing all traces of her presence from the system.

With Sam in the ghost zone

As the entrance to the Fenton Portal became smaller and smaller to the naked eye Sam with her destination locked into the Specter Speeder's navigational computer flew there as fast as the Specter Speeder could allow. However, even with a solid game plan in mind, and a way to know if it would work in mind Sam couldn't help but replay the words of Hologram Maddie in her mind.

'Who I am is of no importance to you. As for why I helped you let's just say that despite being just a computer program I know how it feels to be rejected by someone you love.'

"What was she talking about? While I know I care for Danny deeply and would love nothing more than to seeing dump both Spectra and Desiree to be with me, I know for a fact that I am not in love with Danny. But even if that weren't true and I did indeed love Danny who exactly could have rebuff her affections to the point of helping me?" Sam asked herself only to shrug it off. "That doesn't matter now, what matters now is that I get to where I need to be and hopefully find the answers I seek. If what I am thinking is indeed true, then I will go forth with the information given to me. But if not then me and Tucker will have to come up with another plan to free Danny. I refuse to make the same mistake twice, and I also refuse to leave Danny in Spectra's vile clutches either! Clockwork has all the answers and while I know he won't just tell me what I want he will at least point me in the right direction and clear up this mess if I am about to make a mistake." Sam said to herself as she continued to fly towards her destination.

"Take it from me Sam Manson if you go to Clockwork at best he will keep you from making the mistake of killing Spectra, but he won't help you get what you truly want." A familiar voice said getting the Goth girl's attention. "From what we have seen Clockwork is pushing for a future where Danny will not only stay with his current girlfriends and with the addition of one other. However, instead of having him leave them, he will eventually marry them. What makes this worse is that even if Spectra fully admitted the real reason she first started pursuing him in the first place he would ignore it due to being a slave to the bond they share." The voice explained.

After the being finished speaking Sam watched as the ghost reveal itself while trying to keep her cool due to the new information she received. After said being revealed itself Sam couldn't help but frown at the lone Observant she saw by her side. However, despite feeling her emotions wanting to be released rational thought kicked in and instead decided to ask one of the questions that popped into her mind.

"Danny told me about you guys. You are only supposed to as your name suggests Observe time but not do anything. So why are you telling me this?" Sam asked.

"I am breaking all the rules for what I am doing, but after learning that Clockwork was not only going to ignore the orders we gave him which was keep our protector from going down the wrong path I could simply no longer just watch. I will help you safely severe the Lilith bonds Danny has with Spectra and Desiree, and I will help you fix the mess that was made so you can be the one who ends up as his queen." The Observant explained causing the Gothic teen to once to raise an eyebrow.

"While I am happy we are on the same page and that you want to help me save my friend I need to know would be Danny's 3rd wife, and what was Spectra's original reason for pursuing Danny?" Sam asked.

"She was using him to get to you." The observant answer without hesitation. "Like the rest of the ghost realm, as well as all but one in Amity Spectra knew of your crush on Danny, and her along with the rest of her girlfriends wanted revenge for their defeat. So when Spectra saw Danny at that bar drinking his frustration away she thought what better way to get back at you than to sleep with the guy you were having a crush on…"

Sam tuned out the rest of what the observant had to say due to the massive amount of rage she was feeling due to learning said truth. It now all made perfect sense to her. Spectra slept with Danny to not only bind him too her, but also to make it so she could consistently torment her due to not only having her crush as her puppet but also make it where any hope of them being together would be impossible. Letting all this new information go through her mind Sam only had one thing one her mind. But in order to achieve what she wanted she only had two options. The first being she could go back into the past and prevent Danny from ever going to said bar. Sadly this idea went out the window for a few reasons. The first being that Clockwork had complete and total control over time, and even if she could go back into the past and even prevent said event from happening Clockwork could just reset time so her efforts would be for naught.

The second idea would be for Sam to find Desiree and somehow convince her to let her have one wish but like the first idea this was near impossible. This was due to how devoted Desiree was to Danny, and would never turn on him. Heck even if she wasn't devoted to her best friend and was a more open to suggestion the fact of the matter would be that if she granted said wish her freedom would be revoked and she seriously doubt that Desiree would ever do that to herself.

"DAMN IT! Even with knowing all this there is nothing I can do to undo it!" Sam hissed as her eyes began to glow green. "How am I supposed to save my friend if all of my options are closed off to me?!" Sam raged causing an ectoplasmic aura to appear around her body.

This didn't go unnoticed by the observant who if he could have smiled would have done so.

'Like with our protector's Atmokinetic powers his true queen's Chlorokinetic powers are starting to resurface. Sadly unlike in the timeline I saw just revealing the truth isn't enough to fully reawaken them.' The observant thought to himself.

"In fact from what we saw in the other timeline had Spectra not stuck her claws into Danny and did what she did when he would have eventually learned the the truth about how you felt on his own, and he wouldn't have rebuffed you but rather would have accepted your feelings. In other words her actions that day destroyed not only the future we hoped would happen but also wreaked what should have been your…" The Observant's never got the chance to finish his thought as a very bright aura blinded his vision.

When the Observant's eye finally readjusted the sight before him once again would have brought a smile to his face if he had a mouth. This was due to Sam not being within her normal black and purple gothic attire but rather her Maleficent styled costume with the difference being that the horns were sharped thorns and instead of her clothes being black they were green. However, upon seeing how strong her aura was the Observant if he had been alive would have pooped his pants.

'Judging by her aura Sam's powers have already surpassed that of even Undergrowth's and this is only scratching the surface. At her peek she is going to be very powerful and with her help I will not only be able to help fix the future to what it is truly supposed to be, but with my advice give her the best chance of not screwing up again but first…'

"Ugh what happened, why do I feel like I was in the center of an atom bomb… The powers I had while under Undergrowth's mind control are back… but how?" Sam asked causing the Observant to speak up.

"Whenever a being gains another ghost's powers or ghost abilities in general said abilities never truly go away even if removed by normal means. If they appear to go away on their own all that is truly needed to reawaken them after a period of time is a strong enough stress or a strong enough will by the person who knows about the abilities to reawaken them. In Danny's case his powers reawakened due to Bertrand revealing your feelings and Danny believing them to be a lie, and in your case…"

"Learning from you that Spectra purposely used Danny to get to me, and wreaking my shot at happiness I truly deserved. Ugh when I get my hands on her I am going make her wish she never laid a hand on my Danny!" Sam hissed as her powers flared with her emotions.

"No Sam as it stands right now even if by some miracle Clockwork told you everything you needed to know on how to remove the bond from Danny safely your current level of skill and power won't be enough or did you forget what happened when you and Tucker worked as a team to bring Spectra to the break of defeat?"

Upon hearing the one eyed ghost's question Sam couldn't help but sigh before nodding her head.

"She transformed into her other form and got away." Sam dejectedly answered.

"Correct, and even if she didn't run you would have still lost to her badly. With her Lilith powers reawakened her power jumped from a borderline C class ghost, to a high tier A to lower S class. At her known peak she could even give Pandora a beating at her's. In order to have any chance at success I needed to reawaken your old powers you were given. Undergrowth himself is a high B tier ghost at his peak, however due him making you one with him during his invasion and his power was constantly flowing through you during the time your reawakening has caused you to surpass his power and you aren't even at your peak…"

"So you are saying with my reawakened powers I should be able to succeed in freeing Danny?" Sam asked cutting the Observant off.

"Your chances are far better now then they were before. However, you still need the means to break the bond safely and permanently for it to work." The Observant replied before handing Sam a sheet of paper and a glowing green vile. "You need to drink what is in the vile. The contents of the vile will make it so that when she is in her Lilith form you will be able to harm her more easily. As for the paper once you gotten her down to the point of where she is weak enough you need to read the spell without making a mistake. Once the spell is finished correctly the bond will be shattered and your friend will be free of her influence." The observant explained.

"And what happens if I were to make a mistake?" Sam asked curiously.

"The bond will not only be unbreakable by outside means, but the bond itself will complete itself. However despite all this it would be a lot safer than your original plan prior to deciding to seeing if it was accurate. Had you straight up killed her… Let's just say Danny's fate would have also been sealed." The Observant explained causing Sam to breathe a sigh of relief.

'I am actually glad I didn't listen to said e-mail, and now with my chlorokinetic powers reawakened I will be able to save my best friend. Don't worry Danny, even if you don't see me as your friend I will still save you.' Sam thought to herself before turning the ship around and proceeding back to Fenton works.

"Wait before you go back drink this elixir. It will have the same effect on you that Spectra's wish from Desiree did on Danny when it came to his weather abilities." The Observant explained.

Not wanting to be at any disadvantage Sam without a second thought drank the elixir and upon doing so all the knowledge as well as control that would normally take years if not decades of practice to acquire came to her instantly.

'Soon Danny I promise I will free you from that vile woman's grasp, and I promise I will make things right between us. Once that is done I am going to not only make up for lost time, but make you forget all about that stupid bitch.' Sam thought to herself as she went back to the ghost portal.

The Observant seeing that he has already made a significant change in the time stream simply teleported out of the Specter Speeder and watched it go off.

'Soon things will be as they should be. The protector of both worlds will be on the path he is supposed to be on, the young woman who has kept him on the right path from t beginning will be able to get back within his good graces, and with my actions I will prove that our oath that we swore to uphold will be pointless.' the lone Observant thought to himself before he teleported back to the rest of his kind.

Casper High an empty broom closet the next morning

"Sam I know this sounds nuts but I think I know of a way to free Danny from Spectra's grip. It involves crossing a line you would never want to cross under any circumstances." Tucker explained.

Sam frowned at what Tucker was implying. Not only did it seem he got the same E-mail she got the night before, but with the way Tucker was talking it seemed he was really considering crossing the line that should never be cross in her eyes.

"I see you got the same E-mail I got about breaking a succubus bond with a person." Sam replied voicing her thoughts. "Sorry but that isn't going to happen Tucker. While I hate Spectra's guts more than even Paulina's right now, killing her is not an option!" Sam explained.

"But there isn't any other ways to severe the bond he shares with her. We both know neither of them would willingly severe the bond they have with the other and I did the research after getting the email with all the possible sources that are out there. This is the only way we can truly free him." Tucker countered only for Sam to shake her head.

"That is where you are wrong Tucker. Yesterday after receiving the same e-mail I had might doubts so I decided to go to the one being that knows everything in the hopes of discovering the truth. Needless to say had either of us actually went through with said plan and succeed Danny would have also died with her due to the strength of that succubus bond." Sam explained causing Tucker's to go wide eyed.

As Sam continued to tell Tucker about the events that had happened the night before he couldn't help but feel both relief and envy. The former was due to learning that thanks to what Sam had learned they effectively prevented themselves from killing the very person they had hoped to save in the process. The later was mostly due to once again Sam regaining the ghost powers that she had when she was under Undergrowth's mind control while he was the only person without ghost powers within the trio. However, even with all this Tucker couldn't overlook one detail.

"Sam you said the information you got wasn't from Clockwork but rather one of those one eyed beings that don't do their own dirty work?" Tucker asked getting a look from Sam. "Sam don't look at me like that. While I am happy you made a better effort than I did to get the truth, how do we know that the person who did all this is really an Observant gone rouge? For all we know it could be another ghost with an agenda." Tucker explained.

"But what if it isn't, and everything I was told was true? What if what that Observant is right, and this is the only way we can truly free Danny? What if Clockwork despite knowing everything doesn't want to fix things as they should be?" Sam asked remembering what said Observant said to her.

"Sam I will help you with this but on the one condition we actually go to Clockwork and talk with him about this like you originally planned. While I know he won't tell us everything I want to make sure we aren't walking into a mine field and what you did the night prior shows we both need to…"

"What the rouge Observant has told about breaking a Lilith bond is accurate." A familiar voice explained before time itself stopped.

Seeing the two teens locked in time Clockwork placed a time medallion around each of their necks causing the effects of his Chronokinetic powers to cease working on the two of them.

"Clockwork? Why are you here at our school? Did you want to save us the trip of coming to you?" Tucker asked.

"Yes Mr. Foley I have and seeing as you both wanted to know how to 'free' Danny from the Lilith bond, I will tell you what that rouge Observant told you is true. If you can successfully get Spectra weak enough and perform the spell he gave you the bond will come undone without any harm to your friend." Clockwork explained causing Sam to send a smile to Tucker.

"See I told you that…"

"However, even if you manage to succeed there will be dire consequences that even the Observant who reawakened your powers couldn't see. Consequences that not even Desiree or myself would be able to undo." Clockwork explained in a deadpan tone.

"Why not tell us what those consequences are? That way…"

"Because you need to make your own choices. As for why I am helping you as much as I am it is because Danny is my responsibility and while I must leave you to make your own decisions that doesn't mean for my apprentice's sake I can't give you a final bit of help." Clockwork replied while winking towards the two teens. "Oh and Tucker unlike Sam and Danny, your powers were removed by a device thus purging all of the ghostly energy Desiree placed within you out so unlike your friends there is no chance of you regaining your older powers." Clockwork explained before taking the time medallions from Sam and Tucker and restarting time back.

'Well that answered my question about whether or not the information Sam received was legit or not. But still that part about going through with said plan and not being able to undo any consequences is unnerving. We just want to free Danny from Spectra's grip but…'

"Leave her along Dash! It is obvious that she doesn't want anything to do with you!" A familiar voice said in a very pissed tone getting the attention of the Techno geek and Goth rebel.

"You don't tell me what to do Fenturd! I saw this hottie first and…"

"it is obvious that she isn't interested in you Dash! So why don't you do yourself a favor and find someone else to hit on!" Danny continued with his tone getting more livid by the second.

Not in the least in the mood to be told what to do Dash grabbed Danny by his shirt and lifted him up to his face.

"I don't care what happened the day before, you don't tell me what to… AWWWW!" Dash screamed in pain as the very girl he was trying to hit on kick him right in the groin causing the jock to not only drop Danny but curl up into a ball in pain.

"Oh just wait… until I am able… to get up… again Fenturd you… and your little… whore are going to…"

Before Dash could finish his thought Danny lifted the still in pain jock off of the ground by his neck, and gave him a look that if looks could kill would have no longer be human but rather one of the spirits he regularly hunts. Seeing the very impressive display of strength once again caused the masses of the school to talk among themselves while a certain Techno geek and Gothic girl were liking what was happening less and less.

"It is just like one month ago where Danny had our former teacher in that iron clad grip only difference is that unlike him Dash is just a moron who doesn't think things through." Tucker replied earning a nod from Sam.

"Well I am going to put a stop to this right now before…"

"Danny I know Dash is once again being a major idiot, but you beating him to a pulp over calling someone a name will only put you in the same trouble as he is going to be. Remember thanks to the school camera's that were installed everything he just said and did was recorded and unlike before he won't be getting off the hook. So please Danny don't do anything that will get you in trouble." Paulina replied while pointing in the direction of closest camera that was recording everything.

Remembering everything that was mentioned the day before, and knowing Paulina was correct Danny released the still injured jock from his iron clad grip.

'She is right, and after what happened yesterday the last thing I need is to draw even more attention to myself. Besides despite them giving her a thrashing with her quick healing Spectra should be back and if I know her she will be more than willing to help me with my frustrations while giving the righteous justice that is deserved.' Danny thought to himself just before Mr. Lancer and the other teachers came.

"Mr. Fenton while we are happy that you are back safe and sound you should know better than to attack…"

"My hero didn't attack him, he stood up for me. It was that thing that is outside our species that was harassing me." The girl said cutting off Mr. Lancer causing everyone for the first time to turn their attention to the girl.

The girl in general stood about 2 inches taller than Paulina, and had fiery red hair that went halfway past her shoulders. Her skin color was a medium mocha brown, with her eye color being a shade of green that matched Danny's alter ego. Her attire consisted of a pair of white jeans that hugged her curvy hips, a sleeveless black tank top that had Danny Phantom's insignia in the center, and a chain that had a large crystal that rested right in the volley of her D cup bosom. However, what was most noticeable was not what she was wearing or her very figure but rather the Danny Phantom tattoo with icy blue angel wings and a halo above his head hold what appeared to be a younger version of herself bridal style in his arms that was on her left arm.

'Wow and I thought Paulina had a bad infatuation with Danny. After all this is said and done I am going to have to watch out for this girl.' Sam thought to herself.

"Ms. Sanchez seeing as you were there from the start could you please tell me exactly what happened?" Mr. Lancer asked.

"It is as the new girl said Mr. Lancer. Dash when he saw her walking into the building decided he would try is luck with getting with her. The girl told him no but he persisted. Danny who saw her plight stepped in to try and get him to back off. He wouldn't listen grabbed Danny by the collar in an attempt to threaten him then the new girl kicked him in the groin. Afterwards Dash called the new girl a whore, Danny picked him up in the same matter he did our former Spanish teacher and then I had to convince him not to destroy him like he did that…"

"That is quite enough Ms. Sanchez. After the emergency meeting within the auditorium we will pull up the files to see who is telling the truth. Once we have the truth I will deliver punishment to the wrong doers personally. Now everyone make your way to the auditorium now unless of course you want a month's worth of detention for disobeying a teacher." Mr. Lancer replied causing all the students in the hallway to comply and walk to the auditorium.

'Emergency meeting? I wonder what could be so unsettling that we need to have two meetings within a week?' Danny thought to himself as went to his locker to get his books.

As Danny went to go get his books Sam attempted to walk towards Danny only for Tucker to stop her last minute and shake his head.

"Sam trying to talk to Danny while he is still bound to Spectra is like trying to get you give up trying to get the world stop eating meat. In other words it isn't going to happen. I honestly don't think even revealing Spectra is using him to get to you will matter at this point due to how strong their bond is. We are going to need severe the tie he has to her first. Then when he is free we can begin the healing process with him." Tucker explained.

"I was actually concerned about why Danny looked as though he was going to destroy Dash like he did our old teacher. I know Dash is a failure who best years are going to be within high school, but even we know he isn't a rapist." Sam added before walking off towards the auditorium.

As soon as Sam was out of sight Tucker quickly pulled out his PDA, and with a speed of a seasoned texter typed in a message and hit the send button before putting the device away.

'Forgive me for doing this Sam, but after what we learned from Clockwork I need to make sure Vid and the others don't listen to said E-mail and get themselves hurt or worse.' Tucker thought to himself as went to the auditorium.

Vlad's office at this moment

Vid who was within Vlad's office at the moment felt her phone vibrate and upon pulling it out saw Tucker's text message. Seeing the short text Vid couldn't help but sigh in disbelief. This didn't go unnoticed by Vlad who knew something was bothering one of his pawns.

"Vid is something wrong? You look as though you got a bit of bad news." Vlad asked earning a nod from Vid.

"It is from the boy I am using due to him and his friend knowing about the newest target. He mentioned not to ask him how he found out, but if we were to follow the E-mail advice and kill the target any bonds she has with them if strong enough will case the said targets to perish with her. I am not sure if…"

"Don't dismiss his text Vid. Seeing as he and his friend have access to more information than we do I feel it would be best if we find out everything he knows about this." Vlad explained already having a clue where Tucker got his information.

"I been trying to do just that, however I think he is onto my game. He isn't giving into my feminine charms like I would hope. He is still gunning for 1/4 of the reward if we succeed." Vid explained earning a smile from Vlad.

"Then offer him something he couldn't refuse no matter what. One thing I have learned over the years as a business man is that everyone has their price. Find his, and get the information from him. When you succeed in your missions I will triple what I give to you my dear." Vlad explained earning a thoughtful look from Vid.

'I know what this guy wants, and my gut tells me that if he knows the e-mail was wrong than the might very well know the real way to beat the target and break all the bonds she holds. Plus the extra money is tempting however… am I really willing to go this far with a guy I don't even…'

Before Vid could finish her thought several of the Mayor's guards flew into his office doors in a downward arc motion and a very pissed off Maddie Fenton barging in. Vid seeing the very woman as a threat was about to defend her mayor when Vlad held his hand to stop her.

"Vid, you have your assignment. Do what you have to do to accomplish your mission. I need to talk with my upset college friend alone." Vlad replied already reading the body language Maddie was radiating.

Thankful she didn't have to deal with the pissed off middle aged woman Vid left the office leaving Vlad and his former crush alone. Before Maddie could say anything however, Vlad pressed a button underneath his desk and within seconds the doors to his office closed, and a very powerful ghost shield came up an active.

"I even activated the soundproof nanobots so that this office is completely soundproof. So tell me Maddie what seems to be the problem?" Vlad asked causing Maddie to take a deep breath and calm down.

"Your staff for starters. I remember you putting me and Jack on your VIP list only for them to act like they didn't know and attack me. The second and more important thing is the fact that you knew that my boy was half ghost since our reunion a year and a half back yet you said nothing about it to us!" Maddie hissed causing Vlad to go wide eyed.

'Daniel, exposed his secret to Maddie and Jack? Normally he would never do something like that. I am guessing it has something to do with Spectra hold on him.' Vlad thought to himself.

"Daniel is back? Then that means that…"

"Don't play dumb with me Vlad now answer my question now!" Maddie spat cutting off the older halfa.

"Sorry Maddie but I had to try for Daniel's sake. But yes Daniel is right I did learn about his secret from that long ago. However, I learned his secret by accident and when I did learn about it I promised him I would keep his secret and for good reason. At first he mentioned to me the reason he kept his secret from you was because he felt or rather was told by Samantha that you wouldn't understand what he was going through. Eventually he mentioned to me that even if this wasn't the case he was afraid for his own safety. I mean think about it your son who was infected with ghost DNA by accident due to a more up to date ghost portal living with a pair of ghost hunters who talk about everything and anything they would not only do to a ghost or more importantly the ghost boy? If I were in his shoes I would have been afraid to tell you this as well." Vlad explained causing Maddie anger to go from erupting volcano angry to tea kettle boiling.

'Danny did mention that to me however…'

"That still doesn't explain why you put a 250 million dollar bounty on my boy's head Vlad! In fact…"

"Maddie as I told you before Daniel is like a son to me. The moment he would have been turned over to me I wouldn't have harmed him and you should know this better than anyone. However, I can't look as though I am playing favorites so I had to put said bounty on his head…"

"If you care anything about Danny, you will retract that bounty now! Or would you like me to show you what a 9th degree black belt can truly do when she is pissed?" Maddie hissed while turning the nods of her modified ghost gauntlets.

"I was planning on doing so anyways, so I will do so right now." Vlad replied before taking out the most up to date tablet and quickly send out an E-mail doing so.

As soon a Vlad hit the send button Maddie's phone pinged and upon looking at said E-mail saw that Vlad was telling the truth.

"Is there anything else that you are keeping from me Vlad? Cause I promise you if I learn that you are hiding something from me…"

"I just learned this recently but the information that I sent all of you on how to break the bond that evil ghost has one Daniel wouldn't have been without consequence. According to a very reliable source had you or anyone else successfully managed to end Spectra Daniel would have also been ended as well due to the strength of the evil bond they share. I currently have one of my best agents out there as we speak looking for information that will break the bond safely without Daniel dying from it." Vlad explained throwing Maddie off guard.

'If what Vlad is telling me is true then that bitch is more cunning then I thought. Attaching herself to my baby boy and using him as a toy while making so he will die if he or someone else tries to break him free. I swear when my son is free from her evil grasp I will do to her what I said we would do to Danny if we ever caught him! But first…'

Vlad watched as Maddie's expression went from pissed to surprised to calm in less than 5 minutes. Seeing that the older Halfa finally calmed his friend down he breathed a sigh of relief when she walked closer to him.

"I am glad you are calming down Maddie, you should really save that anger for that horrid ghost Spectra seeing as she is the one doing this as payback for her last defeat." Vlad explained causing Maddie to go wide eyed at this.

"Of course, me, Jazz, and Sam defeated her and her friends some time ago. Striking at Danny would hurt all of us! Oh she will pay for her crimes when this is done! She better be glad I don't know a safe way to break that bond otherwise… You know what nevermind. I have more important things to do but first Vlad I was hoping you could test my latest invention." Maddie replied before handing Vlad what appeared to be a simple ring.

Seeing the unique device Maddie handed him Vlad continued to look at it before Maddie gestured for him to put it on his finger. However, before Vlad could ask what exactly what the device does not only did it send a strong surge of energy causing through Vlad's body causing him to transform into his ghostly counterpart, but in the process surrounded the older halfa in and energy sphere. Upon seeing the results of her device Maddie narrowed her eyes.

"I didn't want to believe it, but it seems what Danny told me about you is also true Vlad Plasmius." Maddie hissed before pulling out an ecto weapon.

"What are you…"

"Don't try to smooth talk your way out of this one Vlad! The moment I learned from Danny that you were a halfa after he revealed himself he mentioned you would find some way to keep your secret from me so I sent hours working on a way to see if he was telling the truth. I was hoping he was wrong when he told me your secret but it looks like he was right once again. Let me guess the prototype portal that gave you your ecto-acne also gave you your ghost powers as well?" Maddie said as more of a statement than a fact.

Seeing that he had been exposed and he couldn't talk his way out of it Vlad sighed and shook his head.

"Yes Maddie it is true. After the accident that had ruined my life and any chance I might have had with…"

"Vlad I never liked you in that way! My heart was with Jack and it will always be with him!" Maddie replied cutting off the older halfa.

"I know that now Maddie, and believe it or not I finally gotten over my obsession with you. In fact I have been over you for the past few months. But as for why I didn't tell you the truth the reason was simple. I was bitter with Jack for thinking he stole you away from me or did you forget about how I reacted towards you in my ghost form when you first saw me? I wasted nearly 22 years plotting how I would steal you back from Jack, show you that I was the better choice, show you that I could give you everything he could never give you." Vlad explained pouring his heart out to his former crush/obsession before giving Maddie a look full of remorse.

"But you want to know what my biggest regret is? That it took me nearly 22 years of being bitter and alone to make me see what a fool I have been." Vlad explained while looking at an old college photo of him, Jack, and Maddie before his accident.

Hearing Vlad's explanation Maddie couldn't help but feel the sincerity in his voice about being over her and the regret he felt for acting the way he did. However, despite all this Maddie's eyes still remained narrowed at her former college buddy.

"Even if what you are saying is true that still doesn't change the fact that you spend a year and a half attacking my son and trying to get him to renounce Jack and join you! In fact after everything you have done I am going to make sure you pay for your crimes against my family. I already got a video of everything that has happened here and once I show it to…"

"Maddie wait! I know you are pissed with me still and you have every right to be. However, you still need me to free Daniel from Spectra. Had I not told you the information I gave you had you succeeded and killed her Daniel would have died with her as well. I am using my resources as we speak to find the safest way to do so. If you do what you are planning on doing that information will be lost, and Daniel will be permanently bond and enslaved to Spectra…"

"How do I know you aren't just trying to use Danny to get out of your righteous punishment?"Maddie spat cutting him off.

Now this time it was Vlad's turn to be outraged and pissed. Sure he used his powers for his personal gain, and sure he had done some horrible things over the years. However despite all he did in the past the one thing that was true all in all was he did care about Daniel.

"Woman, are you so dense to think that despite everything I have done that I don't care about Daniel's well being? He is the only other person on the planet who could ever hope to understand my situation! Plus despite everything I have done to him I still see him as the son I never had Maddie! So take it for what you want but I do care about him, and I don't want to see him enslaved to one of the most vile creatures to ever inhabit either world!" Vlad spat with both anger and sincerity.

Maddie was once again taken aback by her former buddy's words. Never in her time of knowing him had he ever spoken to her like this even when she did something to piss him off. Hearing the tone of voice Vlad used Maddie if she couldn't before truly did believe him about caring about Danny and despite wanting to expose him put that on the back burner before taking off the device he placed on his finger allowing him to revert back to his human form.

"You better be lucky that I consider my son's safety more important than you getting righteous punishment." Maddie hissed.

"To be honest with you Maddie I would have been worried if you didn't think this way." Vlad replied before turning back towards Maddie. "I know I don't deserve this, but when this is said and done can you let me explain everything that has happened to Jack if he doesn't know already?"

"What makes you think he doesn't know now?" Maddie asked.

"Because when it comes to Jack there are three things that matter to him more than anything. His family, ghosts, and myself. Had Daniel told him he would have been here with you no matter how much you told him to stay home." Vlad countered.

"Just keep your word about helping Danny and I will give you your chance at redemption." Maddie replied before Vlad lowered the security he put up.

As Vlad watched Maddie walk out the door he couldn't help but frown at how things turned out.

'Spectra has really thrown a massive monkey wrench in my plans with her influence over Daniel. He was never supposed to expose us, and now because of it I had to reveal some of my hand. While I do truly care for Daniel unless I find some way to undo some things I will never be able to convince him to join me… No that is negative thinking Vlad. You might not be omniscience like Clockwork but you are still a master manipulator and an expert chess player. When you lose your queen you can always promote a pawn to get a new one, and Daniel's best friend will be the key.' Vlad thought with a smile.

Spectra's realm 3 hours later

Spectra looked herself over in the mirror while in her naked Lilith form and smiled. While she knew she was beautiful in her first and third forms respectively her fifth form in her opinion made her others look plain in comparison. However, at the same time while she continued to look herself over within this form a slight frown appeared on her face. Due to Sam peeling her ghost form apart with the Fenton peeler she couldn't go in her ghost form until said energy restored itself and the only way she could do so was to make teens miserable to gather the energy.

'And thanks to that stupid bitch and her friend I can't go there without getting hunted on the spot. That bitch better be lucky I truly choose my Libido over revenge because otherwise I would make her suffer big time!' Spectra thought to herself feeling more livid than normal.

As Spectra began to let her emotions surge through her the Lilith ghost heard several lightning strikes as well as some howling winds. Figuring that it was Vortex using his powers out of her realm Spectra with a snap of her fingers clothed herself in a skin tight black leather top that did well to contain her D cup bosom while at the same time letting her bat like wings have freedom, a matching black thong that left very little of her backside to the imagination, a set of matching arm length gloves, and a set of high leg heeled boots.

Had anyone else saw her like this they might not have thought that her attire was that much of an improvement, but sadly none of her other outfits she currently had would work with her Lilith form due to the wing and tail.

Deciding that her attire was good enough Spectra went outside her realm and was about to give Vortex a piece of her mind when she noticed the moment she stepped outside he was gone and the bad weather had stopped.

"Damn it and here I was ready to kick some Vortex ass for what he was doing!" Spectra hissed in annoyance only for another strong gust of wind to pick up for a few seconds before vanishing.

'Wait a minute I have seen this before. It only happened when Danny first got his weather powers back. Please let this be true because if it is then that means our bond is extremely far along.' Spectra thought to herself as she let her anger flare up again.

As if responding to her emotions a strong twister took form causing the misery ghost's smile to grow.

'Yes our bond is now at the point where his powers are manifesting themselves within me. I am guessing the same is happening with him which means eventually he will gain my abilities to feel and read other people's emotions, feed off of teen misery to become stronger and preserve his youth and eventually he begin gaining my Lilith powers if he hasn't started already.' Spectra thought to herself happier than she was prior which in turn caused the weather to clear up.

Deciding to test her luck and the bond they shared, Spectra made herself invisible than focused on where Danny's location before trying and succeeding at using another of Danny's powers.

Casper high detention

Danny couldn't help but glare at Mr. Lancer who at the moment was reading a book of poetry. Despite both Paulina and said girl coming to his aid, despite there being video evidence proving the three of them right Mr. Lancer decided once again to not only give Dash a slap on the wrist but decided to give Danny a month's worth of detention for 'harming his fellow students.'

Originally Danny was going to have a clone serve out his sentence, however seeing as the school had gotten updated with not only camera's but ghost detection devices Danny instead figured he would serve his sentence in person.

'Had Spectra still been here at least justice would have been served properly. But I can thank Samantha and Tucker for…'

'What is the matter lover? Can function one day without one of your sexy smoke show girlfriends being in school with you?' Spectra asked throwing Danny for a loop.

'How am I hearing you in my… let me guess it is the bond we share that is allowing this right?' Danny asked in his mind.

'You got that right Danny. Our bond has grown strong enough to the point where I can not only communicate with you anywhere be it on the other side of the planet, the far ends of the ghost zone or even the darkest pits of Tartarus for that matter.' Spectra explained. 'But that isn't the reason why I am speaking with you. I need to know have you developed any new powers recently. Specificity powers like being able to feel other people's emotions or feel a rush of power when you touch or are close to a teenager who is feeling miserable?'

To say Danny's eyes went wide when Spectra asked this question was an understatement.

'Yes yesterday when I was speaking with mom I felt how she was feeling when I revealed the truth about my secret towards her. When I was making love with Desiree yesterday I could feel all of her desires and went with them to sate her. Earlier in the hallway I felt Raven's distress when Dash was harassing her and due to how miserable he was making her felt a spike in power.' Danny explained in his head.

'It is because of the Lilith bond we share Danny. Under normal circumstances when the bond gets to this point my powers would begin to slowly manifest themselves within you. However seeing as you aren't a normal human and you have your own set of abilities your powers are beginning to manifest themselves within me as well. I have already manifested your weather powers, as well as your ability to teleport…' Spectra explained as she wrapped her silky soft hands around Danny.

'Well that explains why I could feel everyone's emotions as well as the spike of energy I felt. But is there anyway I can control the later? Even if it did make me stronger I feel terrible about being empowered due to Raven's misery unintentional or not.' Danny asked.

'Sorry Danny but not even I can control that one seeing as right now I am feeling some of the ghostly energy I lost yesterday returning due to yours right now…'

"Mr. Fenton I am going to the men's room to handle some business. I expect you to remain here and think about what you did wrong." Mr. Lancer replied earning a dark smile from Spectra.

'Your emotions tell me he and the rest of the staff went right back to their old ways despite the updates the moment I was removed…'

'Spectra you aren't going to…'

'Kill him? No. Make him suffer for messing what is mine and thinking he can get away with it? You better believe I am!' Spectra explained before she reluctantly released Danny from her grasp and flew behind the overweight and completely bold teacher.

Seeing her target in her sights Spectra quickly overshadowed Mr. Lancer, walked towards to broom closet opened the door and closed it behind him. Eventually she exited his body and reappeared in front of his face.

"Ms. Spectra what are you… ugh!" Mr. Lancer hissed as he felt Spectra's knee go into his overweight gut.

"That is for playing favorites to that blonde idiot who was harassing that girl…" Spectra replied before charging her fist with most of her remaining ectoplasmic energy before slugging him effectively knocking him out. "and that is for fucking with my lover. No one does that and gets away with it!" Spectra hissed before she made herself invisible again and phased outside of the door.

Back in the classroom with Danny

No sooner did Danny pull out his book and began reading his history assignment did he hear the door close but didn't see anyone do so. Knowing that he couldn't use is powers without revealing his secret Danny was about to go to the door and try to open it when he noticed strong murky red aura that looked exactly like the one he and Spectra shared coat the door, and within seconds Spectra made her presence known to the young halfa.

"If you are worried about anyone finding out about what we are about to do don't worry lover. I used my Lilith powers to pull this entire classroom into another dimension. Anyone who opens the outside door will only see an empty classroom." Spectra replied before once again descending onto her boyfriend's lap. "So tell me Danny what do you think of my Lilith form?"

"Honestly I think your appearance just got 1,000 times more awesome. I mean your human and ghost forms were smoking hot, but your Lilith form just blows them out of the water. But before you let me in your promised land I need you to answer some more questions." Danny replied earning a nod from Spectra.

"Let me guess, you want to know if you will manifest my Lilith powers as well?" Spectra asked earning a nod from Danny. "Yes you will in fact I think you might have already manifested one of them. Would you be a dear and show me your ectoplasmic aura?" Spectra asked causing the young halfa to comply with her request.

As Danny began to materialize his aura Spectra smiled as she noticed that his Lilith bond color changed. Normally it would have been a murky red which would represent him being bonded with her. However instead of seeing a murky red aura she noticed his aura was now calm and soothing violet. Having confirmed what she hoped would happen she instructed Danny to conceal his aura.

"Your aura tells me that my Lilith abilities have already started manifested within you. You slept with Desiree yesterday didn't you?" Spectra asked already knowing the answer.

"Yeah but what does that have to do with anything?" Danny asked confused.

"Remember when I first slept with you back in my realm? Well when I did so I created a Lilith bond with you that night. When you slept with Desiree yesterday due to some of my Lilith powers manifesting within you a similar bond formed between you and her." Spectra explained causing the halfa to go wide eyed.

"Danny what is wrong? I thought you would be…"

"Spectra don't you get it? I formed an incubus bond with her without her permission. I promised I would never do anything with her unless she wanted and knew about it. It doesn't matter if I didn't know or not the fact of the matter is I did it and…"

'Danny please calm down.' Another familiar voice said throwing the halfa for a loop.

"Desiree? How can you even speak with me let alone know what happened? I just recently found out myself…"

'When I saw my ectoplamsic aura showing a calm and soothing blue instead of the usual purple I went to Wily's bar and had him grant me 2 wishes. The first was to know why my aura changed color. Eventually after a few seconds I got my answer and while I am surprised to learn why my aura changed know that I am happy about it. While normally I would be furious to learn I was bond to another I know that you truly care for me just feeling your reaction and concern for how I would feel only proved me right.' Desiree explained.

"So you aren't upset with me making this bond without your permission?" Danny asked.

'Danny when we were making love yesterday did you even know you were creating this bond with me? Desiree asked already knowing the answer.

"No if I knew it about it I would have asked you first, and had you said no I would have waited until you either changed your mind or gained control of said power. I would never do anything to you or anyone for that matter that they wouldn't want." Danny explained.

'Which is all the more reason why I am not upset with you. As for keeping the bond even though it is a manifestation of one of Spectra's powers the fact of the matter is I am bond to the man I am falling in love with… unless of course the thoughts on your mind when you slept with me was…'

'Passionate and real intimacy. When we shared a bed that night and made love I wanted to make our first experience together special for the both of us. While it wasn't my first time for obvious reasons it was the first time I did it that way." Danny explained.

After explaining everything a puff of green smoke appeared and within less than 2 seconds Desiree appeared surprising the young halfa.

"Spectra I thought this area was sealed off to…"

"Anyone who isn't bond to you Danny. If they share a bond like Desiree if they were to teleport to your location or open that door they would be able to get to you. But just to prevent a future problem. Desiree I wish that when your abilities begin to manifest in Danny that he could pick and choose which wishes he could grant." Spectra replied throwing the young halfa for a loop.

"What is she talking about? My powers manifesting within Danny?" Desiree replied out of the loop.

It was at this moment that Danny explained to Desiree what Spectra had told him earlier. After listening to her boyfriend's conversation the wishing ghost had mixed feelings. On the one hand she was happy that as their bond would grow a part of him would be within her. On the other hand she worried about what she would become as well.

"Does this mean that I will become a…"

"For the time being no Desiree you won't. Seeing as our bond and by default his incubus powers didn't fully manifest themselves within him you will only get his ghost powers. However, if my bond with Danny does complete itself before your bond with him does his incubus powers will manifest within you." Spectra explained to her harem sister.

"But what does this bond mean for me if it fully manifest's itself? You mentioned I am getting incubus powers. Does that mean I will be one third ghost, one third, human and one third incubus?" Danny asked.

"Only if Desiree's bond with you finishes before my bond with you does. Otherwise you will end up as a half ghost half incubus." Spectra explained earning a frown from the young halfa and a dark glare from Desiree.

Before Spectra could say anything Desiree once again used her escape proof claw on Spectra and to add injury to insult began channeling a blue energy into her claw. This didn't go unnoticed by Danny or Spectra who couldn't help but notice said change.

"That power? How are you manifesting his ice powers so early? It took me at least a month to begin manifesting Danny's weather powers." Spectra asked flabbergasted.

"I am confused as well I didn't start manifest Spectra's emotion based powers until recently as well yet here you are using my powers in less than a day." Danny added equally confused.

"Danny I wish to know why am I manifesting your powers at a faster rate then the two of you." Desiree asked causing the young to glow in the same way Desiree would.

Within seconds the knowledge to Desiree's answer went into his mind, and upon learning it couldn't help but smile.

"It is because different emotions make for different bonds. Certain emotional Lilith/Incubus/Succubi bonds will manifest themselves at a slower rate than other emotions. Surprisingly despite Lilith's, succubi, and incubus's being sex demons emotions based off of lust, revenge and other less pure emotions take a longer time for a bond to develop. More positive emotions such as love, devotion, and passion make the results happen faster." Danny explained.

"While that is all well and good could you please let me go? I been frozen solid once before and I rather not be frozen solid again." Spectra replied causing the wishing ghost to do just this.

"You better be lucky my beloved actually cares for your sorry ass otherwise I would do what his friends wanted to do. But what does his bond with me have to do with him keeping some of his human half?" Desiree asked as she released Spectra.

"Simple my harem sister as Danny bonds with you since he is half human and half ghost, you in a sense will get a second chance at being alive. You are all ghost now, but as his bond with you strengthens you will develop a human half which in turn will help keep 1/3 of his human half from being converted. While he will have a full set of incubus powers within him he will be 1/3 ghost, 1/3 human and one 1/3 incubus." Spectra explained.

"So let me get this straight for anyone out there who is trying to understand this. If my bond with Spectra was to complete itself before the bond I shared with Desiree did I would completely lose my human half, due to it being the incubus powers growing within converting it and Desiree herself would be turned into a half ghost half Succubus." Danny started. "However if my bond with Desiree were to finish first I would one be a perfect blend of the three races, with her getting a second chance at life due to gaining a human half." Danny finished.

"That sum's it up lover, but there are two things I need to mention to you. The first being that once your bond with me is complete you won't be able to bond to anyone else. Seeing as it is my bond that gave you the power to create other bonds. So if you wish to form any other bonds with anyone else I would advise you to do it before our bond is complete. The second and more important thing is once you finish bonding with whoever it is you are bonded with it becomes ever binding. In other words for my race it is the equal of a ghost zone wedding." Spectra explained only to watch the young halfa form a clone of himself.

"I don't want a massive harem of girls even if they had no problems with me being a halfa. I have all I need romantically within this room right in this realm." Danny replied before moving over towards Desiree while his clone placed his hands on Spectra's ample ass.

"Seeing as I know you don't want to sleep with anyone but me, how about we finish securing our…" Before Danny could finish his thought Spectra with great reluctance pulled away from Danny's clone.

The young halfa and the wishing ghost watched as the half Lilith half ghost hybrid's green eyes glowed brightly before narrowing into slits. Eventually the Lilith ghost removed the seal from the room and turned towards Danny and Desiree.

"Take him back to your realm and secure your bond with him. I have some unfinished business I need to take care off with your former friends and those Master's Blasters." Spectra said in such a dark tone that it sent a chill down Danny's spine.

"Not that I am curious but why are you going after Sam and Tucker for? It can't be because they peeled you apart like an onion or cost you your job here." Desiree asked only for Spectra to shake her head.

"No those idiots captured my two girlfriends, and knowing them they are using them to get to me." Spectra replied before her channeling the very same blue energy into her hand that Desiree did prior.

"Desiree finish securing your bond with our shared lover. I can feel he still wants to be human but doesn't mind becoming an incubus…"

"No Spectra I am coming with you. If I know one thing about Sam it is that when she wants something bad enough she would rip heaven and earth asunder to get what she desires." Danny explained.

"No Danny you need to…"

"I won't take no for an answer Spectra. If something were to happen to you that I could have prevented if I was there I wouldn't be able to forgive myself." Danny added earning a sigh from Desiree.

"Then I am going as well and before you try and say something Danny my decision is final." Desiree replied before turning to Spectra. "Spectra lets go now."

Upon hearing the words coming from both Danny and Desiree's lips Spectra despite wanting the two of them to stay behind couldn't help but smile.

'While I really wish he would stay with Desiree and secure their bond it is actually endearing that he cares about me that he wants to fight by my side. Hmm maybe after all this is said and done I could try my best to convince him form bonds with Kitty and Ember. It would do them a world of good and with the perks of forming a bond with Danny at their figure tips no one would mess with them not that they would want to since Danny is no pushover.' Spectra thought to herself before taking both Danny and Desiree's hands and teleporting to the last spot she felt her girlfriends.

Clockworks realm this exact moment

"One of your fellow Observant's just couldn't sit around and watch like he was supposed to and let me do what I had intended couldn't they?" Clockwork replied causing the one eyed ghosts to narrow their eye at him.

"Had you did as we asked and fixed things as they were supposed to be then maybe our rogue Observant wouldn't have done what he did. But seeing as things are the way they are now why would you try to do things this way instead of the way things should have been? Why can't you just listen to us..."

"Because unlike you my warren is omniscience! In other words he knows everything, which is something you one eyed losers aren't!" Dark Danny spat earning the ire of the Observant's.

"The alternate timeline version of my apprentice is right. While there are a multiple of ways things could have been done to make the result what is right for both the human realm and the ghost zone only a handful of them had that and would keep my apprentice happy as well. The path I was trying to guide him down before your rogue agent interfered would have resulted in this future happening." Clockwork explain as he showed a future where Danny was in a ghost zone church with two women in white were waiting for him as he walked down the isle.

As the one eyed Observant's looked at the future they once again gave Clockwork a cold glare which to no surprise didn't get any response from the Omniscience ghost.

"Clockwork can you show me what future would have happened had you followed what the Observant's wanted you to do? I am curious now." Dark Danny asked causing the ghost of time to close the viewing screen and open up one more.

The first future Dark Danny and the Observant's saw was the very same isle however, instead of their being two women dressed in white there was only one where there was a girl waiting there wearing a black and purple dress.

The second viewing screen showed a not so happy future when the town was in ruin, with the women from both the first and second visions fading away while the weather changed and him letting out a devastating ghostly wail while doing so.

"While the second vision would have been horrible what would have been wrong with you guiding it so his rightful queen would be with him? Despite her quirks she is the only one who keeps him level headed and unlike the others isn't a negative influence on him!" One of the Observant's asked.

"I am sorry but I can't explain that yet. there are other Observant's out there who like you are watching what is unfolding and they don't want anything spoiled." Clockwork said before turning his head and looking out a window that had the shape of a television screen.

"However, seeing as said Observant did what he did those futures now have 0 chance of happening. Only the remaining futures I have seen prior to all this happening remain." Clockwork replied before looking at the remaining futures once again.

"So you are telling me there is a chance that Danny will end up with..."

"Yes my alternate timeline. However the odds of that future actually happening very slim. There is a better chance of the fifth future I originally saw happening then the second one." Clockwork explained.

"Fine we will deal with the rouge Observant later when he find them. Just do what you must to make it so he has the best possible future that involves him not abandoning his duties!" The Observants said in unison before vanishing out of Clockwork's realm.

"Dark Danny, seeing as said Observant caused this change in the tide to happen, if the worst happens you will need to defend the human and ghost zones from..."

"Ha as if I would help do any good! I have no humanity if you remember, and if you were to set me free I would destroy the world and everyone on it! Nothing you can say..."

"You would be fighting your younger alternate self if things go wrong. If this happens your younger self will need to be eliminated and since you exist outside of time now thanks to the time medallion lodged in your chest you are the only being who would be powerful enough to do it. Succeed and I won't come and capture you like I did before." Clockwork replied earning a raised eyebrow from Dark Danny.

Upon hearing what Clockwork said Dark Danny couldn't help but smile. A shot a freedom while being able to kill his younger self without penalty? It was too good to pass up and he knew Clockwork knew this. However, at the same time he knew there would be a catch to it. The problem was what exactly was said catch?

'Bah who cares if I can fight my younger self and cause mayhem and terror without problem then who am I to complain?' Dark Danny thought never losing his smile.

Already knowing what the evil version of Danny's answer would be Clockwork took a look at all the possibilities for the future now and sighed. However, before taking a look at the futures one again another alternate future that weren't visible before showed up. Seeing said future with his own eyes Clockwork couldn't help but let out a genuine smile at it.

Stage out

I apologize for the long wait with this chapter. However, with my job as an essential worker and the lack of free time I was having issues getting time to create this chapter.
