Final Battle

I flew outside and lowered myself to the ground so I was standing. I stood tall as the possessed body of Nico stood before me. His eyes were a dark brown you could almost mistake them as being black. His aviator's jacket hung loosely on him, and last was his dark smirk that seemed even creeper then it really should. But I knew that smirk, and I knew the dark look in the boy's eyes, I have seen it so many times in my short 'Hero' career. I couldn't help but grin as I took a stance ready for anything he would do. "You miss me…Vlad?" I asked.

The boys' eyes seemed to widen for a second but it was gone a second later, replaced with a grin. "About as much as I miss my trash little bagger." He said in Nicos' voice witch really creped me out but I did not show it. "But I must ask. How did you get out of Hell?" he asked sounding rather curios.

I grinned sheepishly and rubbed the back of my head. "Well I had a little help." He raised an eyebrow at me and I continued. "And by the way, it's the called the Underworld." I stated with a grin before firing a ghost ray at him.

He deflected the blast with his sword and charged sword held high ready to slash. I slid to the side and avoided the swipe. I delivered a hard punch to his face making him stager but he swiped at me with a horizontal swing and I was barely able to bend back and doge it. I quickly flew back and started to fire ghost rays trying to get some distance, he was able to block all my blasts with the dang sword.

He raised his own palm up at me and I had to blink when I saw it start to glow red. I was caught of guard when he fired a ghost ray at me, nicking me on the left shoulder. I let out a little cry of pain and placed my hand over the wound out of instinct. I flew side to side and up and down to avoid the constant barrage of ghost fire.

I saw him smirk at me as he fired again. I dogged it and fired with my own, it connected with him making him slide a few meters before stopping. He stood there for a moment his head down concealing his face. I slowly lowered down to the ground not really believing that I took him out like that. I jumped back however when he lifted his head up and stared at me with glowing black eyes. I started to feel the ground shake under my feet and I quickly took the air just as a black spike came up from the earth right where I was standing.

I took a few deep breaths trying to calm down before dogging another black rock thrown my way. I looked down and saw Nico was calmly walking forward and the ground was cracking with every step he took. When he stopped he lifting his arms up slowly and to my shock huge black stones started to emerge from the earth following in time with his movements, he then looked up at me and gave me a twisted smile before bringing his arms forward so they were in front of him causing the large black rocks to come flying at me.

My eyes grew wide as I started to fire and doge the rocks. My blasts destroyed some of the rocks causing pebbles and dust to rain down on the earth below. I flew down to the ground and fired a strong ghost ray at Nico. However before it could connect a black stone spike shot up in front of him blocking my blast.

I let out a curse as I saw the stone lower back to the ground reviling a smirking overshadowed demigod. I glared at him but it was then that something caught my attention. I could see what looked like steam coming off his body, and his eyes were starting to dim. Nicos words from before entered my mind and I knew what was happening and it enraged me. "Vlad listen to me!" I shouted attempting to convince him that this had gone on far enough. "You have to get out of his body now!"

Nico only scoffed as he raised his sword up and pointed it at me. "Why should I?" He asked sounding darker then he usually was.

Do you have any idea what you're doing to him?" I asked.

"It does not concern me." He replied.

"You're killing him Vlad!"

He paused for a moment before he shook his head "Does not matter, when this one is gone I'll just take over a new one. I do have a whole camp to pick from after all." He said with a dark grin.

My hands slowly closed into tight fists and I could feel the air get colder around me. I glared at the boy rage evident in my eyes. "You have gone too far this time Vlad." I said in a whisper. "I won't let you use people for your own little game!" I shouted as my fists now started to glow an icy blue.

He tilted his head to the side as if questioning what I said. "You are still such a fool, always playing the hero. You could have had so much more, and yet you waist your powers helping those that despise you."

"Not true." I said causing him to stare at me with a curios expression. "I have my friends, my family, and really that's all I need to keep fighting. You on the other hand, had no one, so you used your powers to gain wealth and to become powerful, but it never gave you what you wanted. I fight to protect the one's I love, that's my obsession. You? I'm not so sure you even have one."

The air grew still and all was silent for a few minutes, however it felt like hours. I felt every one of my instincts telling me to run at once. And when I looked into the blood red eyes of the possessed demigod I believed them. He charged at me and I had barley had enough time to avoid having my head get cut off. He slashed again and the sword came dangerously close to my chin.

I flew back again and quickly ascended into the air. I froze however when I saw the outline of his body start to glow red and he slowly lifted off the ground. "You have got to be kidding me?" I asked myself.

He looked up at me; his eyes still glowing crimson and flew toured me at high speeds. I flew up and started to fire ghost rays at him trying to get him down, but he either evaded it or deflected the blast with his sword.

'This isn't working. I need to figure out a way to get Vlad out of him.' I thought to myself as I dogged a red ghost ray. 'I can't get to close to him unless I want to be sliced up like a pizza. If only I could knock him out from a distance.' I blinked for a moment before face-palming. I looked at Vlad an idea already forming and I grinned. "Come and catch me if you can!" I shouted before flying off at top speeds. I didn't need to look back to know he was following me.

Meanwhile

The large room was filled with the citizens of Amity Park, however to the horror all of them they saw the citizens laying on the hard ground not one of them moving. Jason had walked over to many of them and had checked their pulses before giving a sigh of relief. "There alright, just out cold." He stated.

Tucker and Jazz had all split to search for their families. But before Sam could do the same someone grabbed her shoulder. She turned around and blinked at the dark skinned boy. He tilted his head to the side pointing to the door as he let go and started to walk that way. Confused Sam followed him wondering what he wanted.

When they were outside the room and a good distance away to what Eden believed was out of hearing range he spoke. "Fenton and Phantom are the same aren't they?" he asked.

Sam froze to the spot as she stared wide eyed at the dark skinned boy whose eyes were still concealed by the dark sunglasses. She took some heavy breaths before she shook her head with a fake grin. "What are you talking about Phantom and Danny are two different people." She said.

Eden didn't show that he heard her. He just stared at the girl behind his glasses. After a few second he started to shake his head. "You're lying." He said simply which caused Sam's to glare at the boy.

"I'm not lying. And even if I was how can even you prove it? She asked.

"Simple…your wide eyed expression, the fact that you seemed to pause in step when I asked you, and last is the beat of sweat starting to fall from your brow." He stated.

Sam stared at the boy wide eyed for a moment raising her hand and wiping the sweat off her brown. She lowered her gaze for a moment before returning her focus to him with a glare. "What do you know?" she asked.

"Well for starters your story sounded a little to convoluted to be remotely true. Second is the fact that both Fenton and Phantom look so alike. Now granted I only saw the image for a short time, but it was all I needed. They have the same built and at times the same facile features. And third…I have never seen a ghost in that kind of pain before." He stated.

Sam's eyes widened when she heard the word 'Pain'. "He's hurt?" she asked softly.

Eden nodded. "A broken wrist by how he winced when he grabbed those ear plugs, and by the way he was slouched, he must have hurt his back. Injuries that should only affect a human, not a spirit" He stated.

Sam shook her head with a frown. "Idiot." She mumbled. She glanced up at him with a glare. "What are you going to do?" she asked.

Eden stared at her for a moment before speaking. "Nothing."

"Huh?" Sam asked her face showing confusion.

"I may not trust him fully, but I could see he wanted nothing more than to help. If you all say he's a hero, then I got nothing to worry about." He said with a grin. "Besides if I did anything I would have to deal with your wrath for the rest of my life, and honestly I don't want that." He teased.

Sam rolled her eyes but grinned. "You're damn right." She said.

Eden grinned but it was replaced with confusion when he heard his communicator in his ear go off. He turned so he was facing the wall and lifted his hand up to his ear to listen to whoever was contacting him. Sam watched him for a moment before he spoke a "Got it. On my way." Then he hung up.

Eden looked back at Sam and nodded. "Gotta go get the boss, be back!" he said before running down the hallway.

Sam nodded she paused for a moment and placed a hand on her head. "I need to work on my story telling." She said before running back into the storage room.

Eden ran down the hallway to the lobby his rifle strapped to his back and his hand on the strap in case he needed it. He made a sharp turn and entered the lobby only to discover it to be in shambles. Broken glass from the windows was everywhere; parts of desks and furniture were seemingly sliced right trough, and there were scorch marks on the walls and ground.

Eden looked around for his leader and instead found something glitter off of the sunlight from outside. He approached the light and bent down to see it was a silver pole. He looked up when he heard someone groan in front of him. He saw the fallen form of his friend leaning against the wall.

Eden rushed over to him and kneeled down by his side and started to gently shake him. "Come on man. I know you enjoy your naps but we gotta go." He said.

Hope groaned some more before slowly opening his eyes and shaking the dizziness from his vision. He looked over at Eden and gave a tired sigh. "How sad. I was having such a nice dream."

Eden rolled his eyes as he helped his friend up by placing Hope's arm over his shoulder. Eden gently lifted his friend off the ground and started to walk back to the group.

"What I miss while I've been out?" Hope asked. Eden then began to explain what had happened while Hope was busy fighting the demigod. "So Phantom came in and destroyed the duplicate? Not bad." He said wincing slightly when he tripped.

Eden adjusted slightly so he could help his friend. He then started to notice the burses and the burn mark on his chest. "That guy sure did a number on you didn't he?"

Hope grunted and looked to the side his eyes closed. "He got a lucky shot." He said sternly.

Eden rolled his eyes but grinned. "Yeah lucky shot. More like lucky shots." He teased.

Hope scoffed and looked away but frowned and let out a tired sigh. "He knows."

Eden blinked and looked at Hope confused. "Knows what?"

"He knows about us, Eden. He knows about the project."

Eden froze mid-step as he stared at his friend with wide eyes. "He-how does he-?" He asked not able to finish his questions.

Hope let out a sigh and shook his head. "I'm not sure. He said he got the info from hacking into our database and finding the project file. He also said that is how he created the Harpies as well."

It grew silent for a while before Eden continued to walk carrying his friend as he did. "So what do we do now?" he asked.

Hopes eyes glowed with determination. "We put that information in the back of our heads. Our main priority is to make sure the citizens our safe and secure." He said strictly.

Eden nodded slowly with a slight grin on his face. "Roger that, boss man." He said, and after that the rest of the walk was rather quiet.

Meanwhile

It's glad to know that even though he is overshadowing a younger body I'm still faster than Vlad in the air. I was quickly coming to my destination and I was grinning slightly but it quickly vanished when a ghost ray went right past me. I looked behind me and felt ghost ray collide with my chest sending me flying to the ground.

I quickly turned intangible and phased through the house to not get hurt and to avoid property damage. I landed with a thud and skidded back till I collided with something mettle. I groaned and started to rub my now hurting head. "Did someone get the number of that kid?" I asked myself.

I shook the cobwebs out of my head and started to examine where I was and I couldn't help but blink with wide eyes. I was in my parent's ghost lab and the thing I hit was actually the Ghost Portal. "Huh…this normally never happens."

I quickly got up and started to look around for anything I could use. "Let's see, Fenton Weasel?" I picked up a vacuum like device and thought about it for a moment before shaking my head and tossing it to the side. 'He'll counter everything I do with that sword if I fire from a distance. I need be close to him without getting cut like a pizza.' I thought.

I let out a frustrated sigh as I tossed other items to the side. "No, nope, nothing, what the-"I let out an angry groan as I pushed everything else of the table out of frustration. I leaned and placed my head down on the table trying to gather my thoughts. "What now?" I asked nobody.

My attention was then drawn to something glowing on the far side of the lab. I quickly flew over and moved a few things and it was there that I saw it. My eyes got wide and I couldn't help but grin. Now all I had to do was hurry and hope this plan would work.

Vlad looked over the building he had seen the boy fall into, he flew straight for it turning the body he was overshadowing intangible and going through the walls. He looked over the exterior of the Fenton home and couldn't help scowl. He knew for a fact that he could have provided a better home for his beloved Maddie.

He flew down the basement and landed softly on the ground making himself visible again. He looked over the lab that to his chagrin rivaled his own. He did not see the boy and he slowly walked forward till he was in front of the closed Ghost Portal.

He could see the boys-no his reflection in the reflective surface of the portal. Daniel was right when he said this body was fading. The body's pale skin was now almost a sickly white, and the eyes were now a lighter brown. For a moment Vlad felt something like guilt till he realized that this body was just one of thousands that he could use, each with even more power than before, well if he chooses the right ones that is.

He turned around and grinned as he examined the room. "Where are you…little bagger?" He asked walking forward slightly

"Right here Vlad." He heard from somewhere in front of him and then the little bagger himself appeared giving the possessed half-blood a glare.

Vlad grinned darkly as he swung his word back and forth lazily. "How ironic, this room was the birth of your new life, the life of a fool who used his powers for the greater good. To think, who knew it was going to be also where your life ends." He stated darkly.

He watched as Danny lowered his head before looking back up with a confidant grin and his neon green eyes sparkling. "You know Vlad you must love to hear yourself talk. I mean really who says that anymore? It's so cliché." He joked, getting the older halfa's blood to glare at him.

"But you know what Vlad, no matter how much you may say otherwise. I still think you need a cat, I mean all the crazy super villains all have them. To pet and tell them there master plan so they can meow evilly." The demigod's eyes were starting to glow red as he was tightening his grip on his sword.

"One last thing Vlad. You really think you can win? Dude I had to fight a juiced up Fright Knight when I was on vacation compared to that your small fry. Besides in the end even if you do win, you will always be a, Crazed. Up. FRUIT. LOOP!" He said with a full blown smile.

Nico's eyes were now glowing blood red and he was shaking with rage. He flew at the halfa at such a fast speed that Danny could not get away in time. Nico slashed and it connected to Danny's midsection. Nico grinned but it quickly turned into a frown when he noticed the smile was still on Danny's face when he was absorbed into the sword.

He heard someone whistle and his eyes got wide when he saw another Danny was in front of him holding something he had not seen before. It looked like a dream catcher with neon green rope instead of the usual white. Vlad tried to stop but thanks to the momentum of the charge and his speed he couldn't stop in time as he went though the strange green ropes.

I took a few deep breaths as I watched as Vlad went through the Fenton Ghost Catcher that I had turned visible just in time. I watched as two forms came out on the other side, the form of Vlad that I know all too well, and Nico who skidded agents the groan before stopping agents the wall.

I saw Vlad look around before he looked at himself in a reflective surface and his red eyes got wide. "WHAT!?" He looked for Nico and when he found him he charged for him hoping to get back in his body. Not on my watch he wasn't. "Sorry Vlad, you already used up all your possess a demigod points. Now please use your get the hell out of my house points!" I shouted as I fired a powerful ghost ray at him connecting and sending him flying out of my house.

I grinned slightly before flying over to the fallen form of Nico and crouching down so I could get a better look. I gently lifted him up so he was now sitting leaning against the wall. I started to shake him to try and wake him up. "Come on man, wake up." I leaned my hand against his head and yelped and pulled it back in pain. His face was burning up…literally

"I…j..ack…" I heard him mumble.

I grabbed his shoulder and started to shake him a little. "What was that?" I asked him.

"In the jacket…give me what's…in…the jacket." He said his voice cracked and week.

I nodded as I gently opened up the guy's jacket. "Sam would never let me live this down." I mumbled to myself. I was surprised to see a pocket inside the right side of it. I grabbed what felt like a baggy and pulled it out. I blinked when I saw what was inside the baggy. It looked like golden cubed fudge.

I was about to open the baggy when I felt Nico grip my possibly broken wrist. I winced and hissed in pain but quickly ignored it. I looked down at him confused why he stopped me. "Just a little." He said close to a whisper.

I nodded not really sure why it had to be little. I broke off two pieces and fit them in the guy's mouth. 'And it continues.' I thought sadly wondering what my friends would think if they saw me do this. The boy started to chew then he swallowed. I waited for a few minutes to see if anything was happening. I got worried when he didn't move after the fourth minuet but it disappeared when I saw his eyes open slowly.

He looked my way tiredly and let out a loud and long yawn. "What took you so long?" he asked me. His voice nowhere as weak as it sounded before.

I shook my head with a grin. "Sorry, had to protect my look first." I said jokingly. I blinked when I heard something beep in my ear. I pressed the button on the Fenton phones knowing what it was. "This is Phantom." I said.

"Danny, we have a problem the skeletons are getting more chaotic were getting outnumbered we need your help now!" I heard Sam reply back.

My eyes got wide as I heard that. "I'm on my way." I replied and looked down at Nico. "Got any ideas on how to stop this little invasion?"

Nico replied back by closing his eyes as if to think before opening them up and staring back up at me. "I have one, where's the center of this town?" He asked.

"The park, why?" I asked confused about the question.

Nico only grinned as he tried to push himself up "I'll explain on the way." He said.

He tried to walk forward but staggered and almost fell before I caught him and got him steady. "Let me drive." I said as I lifted him up and started to fly to the park with him explaining his plan to me.

Meanwhile

The ghost hunters and teem Phantom were all currently running. What were they running from? They were running and in terms of others flying from a monster mob of very angry skeletons. Eden Val, Skulker and Danu were all firing shots trying to get them more room but it seemed like each one they hit three of four more take their place.

Sam was firing her gun at the skies taking out the harpy's that were trying to dive bomb them. She had called Danny and told him they were getting overwhelmed, and to tell she was surprised when he called back and told them all to get to the park would be an understatement.

"Let's pray this guy has a good plan." Jason said as he ran besides Tucker.

"I'm sure he does. Why else would he call us if he doesn't?" Tucker asked trying to keep up with them.

"I don't know. Maybe so we could all die together as one big family." He said.

"What?" Jazz asked shocked that he would say that.

"Don't listen to him, he get's that way when he's panicked." Hazel said trying to calm the girl down and defend her friend.

"Were nearing the park now!" Hope said. He was still hurt but he would never let others see it.

As the others dived into the park they spotted the white hair of Phantom they started to speed up but when they saw who else was with him they all grew unnerved and started to go even faster.

I blinked when I heard rustling from the side and grinned when I saw my friends and the GIW agents approach me. "Hey guys." I said with a wave.

They paid me no mind as all there narrowed angry eyes was focused to the person who was sitting against a tree. I let out a sigh as I lowered my hand. "Now I know what you're thinking-"

I was interrupted when I saw the dark skinned boy point his rifle at Nico. "What is he doing here?" he asked darkly.

I got between him and the demigod giving the boy my own glare. "If you weren't so trigger happy I could explain."

"I knew we couldn't trust you." He said darkly but whatever he was about to do was stopped when Hope placed his hand on the rifle. Eden looked at Hope confusion stitched to his face.

Hope shook his head and nodded at Phantom. "Go on and explain, but be careful what you say or else it won't just be my friend you have to deal with." He said calmly the threat not going unnoticed.

I gulped as I looked around and saw my friends glaring at me and I had to laugh nervously. "Well it all started, when I first met the guy." I started to explain what had happened with my little trip into the Underworld, the real Nico helping me see that he was being forced to do these things to our town.

I could tell everyone was surprised but what I told them but I could also see that they were also very skeptical of the boy that was till I heard Skulkers' voice say. "He tells the truth, Plasmius wanted the boy so he could make an army to invade the demigod's home as well as the Ghost Zone."

"And I can still get it!" They all heard someone shout above them. They all looked up and saw the vampire like Vlad Plasmius floating in the air. Danny narrowed his eyes as he ready a ghost ray, he noticed Dani and Skulker doing the same. Eden aimed his gun at this new-or in this case current threat ready to fire with Sam doing the same.

Vlad shook his head as his eyes were fixated on a glaring Nico. "It does not matter to me to me if I don't have the half-blood, because thanks to your lovely Guys in White project I have all the power in the world!" He shouted.

"What is he talking about?!" I asked Hope.

I saw his eyes get wide before he shook his head. "No…You can't! You don't know what will happen if you cross that line!" he shouted back.

Vlad grinned darkly before he reveled what looked like a pole with a button on the top. "As a matter of fact…I do." He stated then pressed it.

The air grew colder as I watched the sky's of my home town darken. My eyes grew wide as I watched the ghost harpy's fly around Vlad before turning intangible and flying into him. "What are they doing?!" I asked.

"They are bonding with their creator." Hope said.

"What?!" My friends and I asked at once.

"The harpy's are combining creating a new entity all together." He stated simply.

"So that's why they existed." Nico stated getting everyone's attention. "They were his ace in the hole in case I was no longer useful." He stated. He then glared at Hope. "It was your agency that created those freaks of nature?" He said it more like a statement then a question.

Jason nodded as he sighed. "That explains it. We had a break in security not that long ago, the guy was good he got in and set a virus that deleted the original file we weren't too sure what files were stolen but I guess we know now." He stated glumly.

I glared at Hope. "You knew what those things were capable of?" I asked very ticked off.

Hope shook his head. "It was still in development, all we heard was rumors." He said.

"Well looks like the rumors where proven true." Sam said as she aimed her gun up at Vlad.

I was about to say something to him but froze when I noticed the skeleton army approaching. "We got company!" I shouted as I started to fire at them.

Hope looked over and his own eyes narrowed as he pulled out his staff. "Eden try and take out as many of those Harpy's as you can!" He shouted as he charged at the skeletons.

Eden nodded as he started to fire connecting with many of the birds knocking them down and turning them to dust. He heard someone fire from above him at a bird and he looked up and saw Red Huntress firing as well. "You not going to shoot me in the back?" he asked.

"No." He heard someone say besides him. He looked and saw Sam firing at skeletons and the harpies as best as she could. "You guys have proven already that you are different then the other stupid agents, besides it's a bad idea to start fighting each other, we are still in an invasion!"

Eden stared at her for a moment before he felt his lips curl into a grin and he shook his head. "You guys are alright." He said as fired at a harpy nailing it right in the head.

Nico slowly stood up and started to walk slowly trying not to fall. "Keep the skeletons at bay for a little while." He said.

Hazel looked at him with a raised eyebrow as she threw a knife at a skeleton causing it to stager before turning to dust. "What are you going to do?" she asked.

Nico grinned at her and for a moment she did not see the monster she had thought he was. Instead she saw a mischievous boy about to pull a prank. "Something out of this world." He said. She watched as Nico took a deep breath before summoning a black sword and stabbing it into the earth.

I continued to fire my ghost rays at all the skeletons and some of the harpy's that flew my way trying to get to Vlad. I looked behind me and saw the robotic form of Skulker behind me doing the same thing. I couldn't help but grin as I fired more ghost rays. "This seems familiar huh?"

Skulker grinned as he fired at another harpy destroying it. "It dose and like last time, when this is over your pelt will be on my wall whelp."

I sighed but with a smile. "You never change do you?" I asked.

"No." He said with a grin.

I froze when I felt a strange energy coming from somewhere near us. I looked over and saw Nico had his sword impaled in the ground and I gulped remembering the last time I saw that he was using it on me.

Dani shivered in fear as she fired more ghost rays at any skeleton that got close to her friends. She did not like this feeling. It reminded her to much of what she saw him do to Danny. She tried to ignore and continued to fight the airborne threat.

Nico could feel himself fade. He was trying to focus all of his power into doing this but he just did not have enough left. He leaned his head down to the base of the sword and started to prey in ancient Greek to his father. "Father give me the power to stop this! Give me the strength to correct my mistake!"

For a second nothing happened, but soon Nico started to feel another power flow through him. Hazel watched as Nico lifted his head and her eyes got wide when he saw his eyes were glowing black. Nico let out a scream as the sword started to glow as well and all of a sudden the earth started to shake.

My friends and I watched in awe as the earth opened up underneath the army of skeletons causing them to fall into the dark void. I flew high into the air and my eyes grew even wider when I saw the streets open up as well swallowing up every last skeleton.

Nico's body was steaming and his skin was turning white again but he would not stop. He would not stop till every last skeleton was back in the Underworld. Everyone was struck dumb and silent. They all stared at the now panting demigod.

Jazz frowned and walked forward slowly approaching him. She gently placed a hand on his shoulder; he turned sharply his eyes still glowing black. She flinched slightly but smiled "It's alright we can take it from here." she said gently.

Nico was still panting as he stared at her before his black eyes started to flicker before returning to their normal brown. He slowly pulled the sword from the earth causing all the holes to close leaving permanent scars on the earth.

He wobbled for a moment before falling back being caught by Jazz. She laid him down gently before being joined by Hazel. I flew down next to them and kneeled down on the other side of them. He was still white but was slowly regaining his color back. "Showoff." I muttered.

I saw him grin lazily at the remark, but was replaced with a show of pain as he tried to move. Hazel placed her hand on his chest to keep him down. "You're in no condition to move." She said sternly.

"I wasn't to begin with." he mumbled back.

I grinned and shook my head but it all faded when I heard a loud roar above me. I looked up and I did not need anyone else to tell me that the color would have been off my face.

I saw what looked like an even bigger version of the harpy its wing span around the size of two football fields and the thing was as big as any ghost I have ever fought before. It was mostly white instead of its head and claws were all black and on the underside of the wings you could see it colored a dark red.

The beast looked directly at me its red eyes shining before they started to fade into an unnerving gold. I slowly rose to my feet. "Get him back." I said. They both nodded as they started to move him back.

I saw the giant ghost smirk as it lowered itself down slowly. I tensed looking around ready to make a move. Before the beast could touch the ground however it was blasted by a shot of Eden's gun. That was all I needed as I quickly fired a ghost ray at the beast.

The harpy did not move nor try to move as the beam connected. My eyes got wide and I could feel my heart go to my stomach when I saw there was not a scratch on the thing. It let out a loud screech and charged at me. I flew to the side to avoid it. The harpy followed me to a't' not missing a beat. I tried to fire more ghost rays but none of them seemed to affect the beast.

I avoided a slash of its claws and quickly flew down to where the others were standing. "Alright any ideas?" I asked them.

Eden cocked his gun and aimed it. "Yeah we kill the thing." he said firing at the harpy.

"But it's a ghost. Ghosts are already dead." I said.

"Then we make it deader." He counted firing again.

I flew up high and continued to fire at the thing but it just kept coming. It slash at me with its talons and this time I was not so lucky it got me right across the chest and I screamed in pain.

I did not get enough time to counter before I realized that the beast had grabbed me in his talons. I tried to struggle but I could not move. The beast raised me up so I could see his face. I could see the ghost grin before it opened its mouth and I saw a bright light start to shine.

I closed my eyes waiting for the end but it never came. I heard the beast scream in pain and for it to loosen its grip on me. I quickly got out and got my distance. I studied the harpy trying to figure out what had hurt the thing.

I then noticed something glisten on its stomach for me to understand. The beast charged at me and I ducked down and under him. I grinned when I saw the silver handle of a sword in the ghosts' stomach.

I fired a ghost ray at him and it connected were the sword is and it caused the Harpy to let out a screech of pain. My eyes got wide before I felt a smirk grace my lips now starting to think of a plan.

"Guys!" I shouted down at them. "Aim for his stomach!"

They all seemed to understand as Eden lined his shot and Sam did the same. Red Huntress aimed her own gun and fired. Skulker released several missiles from his shoulders, and Dani fired with the most powerful ghost rays she could make. The blasts all connected causing the beast to scream in pain.

I closed my eyes for a moment before feeling the temperature around me cool. I grinned slightly before charging and firing ice rays at the beast. Slowly but surely it was starting to freeze it. Soon the whole beast was covered in ice.

I took several deep breaths as I watched gravity take over. The ice figure fell the ground breaking apart as it did so. I grinned as I flew down and started to fly to where it landed.

The others were cheering as they watched the giant ghost fall from the sky. Hope grinned as he moved his hand over his staff and moved a part of it to the side making it a small pole again for him to pocket. He blinked however when something wet landed on his forward he looked up and couldn't help but smile. Snow had started to fall all around them.

"Snow? In June?" Tucker asked sticking his tong out letting the snow land and melt.

"More like residue from the ghost." Jason said with a smirk.

Tucker's eyes grew wide and fearful and started to spit out the ice. "Ah! That's gross! Water! I need water!" he screamed with his tong hanging out.

The others started to laugh at his misery and soon Tucker was as well. Even Nico was chuckling.

Meanwhile

I landed down on the snow covered ground were the ghost had crashed. I walked slowly and spotted a crater. Peering inside I saw the body of Vlad lying down in a heap. I quickly slid down and checked his pulse and had to breathe a sigh of relief when I felt a pulse.

I noticed something glimmer from the corner of my eyes and I looked over to see a silver skull ring laying down not that far from me its cold eyes seeming to star at me. I shivered a little not from the cold and lifted Vlad up wincing from having to add extra weight and reached up and grabbed the ring before flying out of the crater.

I dropped Vlad down on the mayor's office and flew back to my friends and blinked when I saw them laughing at tucker with his tong out. I walked over and gave Nico his ring which he took with a grin and placed it back on his finger. "So…what's so funny?" I asked.

Nico shook his head his eyes closing. "Your friends are funny." he said tiredly.

I blinked at him "You alright?" I asked him.

He nodded his eyes closing. "Yup, after all with great power, comes great time to take a nap." he said before drifting off.

Later

The sun was starting to set as my friends and I were all standing on the outside of town saying goodbyes to the GIW agents. I watched with a grin as Jason and Tucker fist bumped while and also saw Jason slip Tucker something that made his techno geek friend smile like he just got a date.

I blinked at my sister hugging the boy named Hope. Her cheeks were slightly red and I smirked. I then saw Sam and Hazel hugging and it confused me even more when Dani hugged her. 'What all did I miss?'

I blinked however when Eden approached me with a grin. He extended his hand out to me. "I guess I was wrong about you." He said.

I smiled and took his hand. "It happens more often than you think." He smiled as well and we shook.

"That go's for you too." he said behind me leaning against the billboard was a fully rested Nico. He grinned and nodded his head at the hunter.

Eden started to walk over to the white van that almost resembled the Fenton RV. I grinned at the hunters. "Thank you all. You helped to protect my town and my friends. If there is anything you need let me know."

Hope nodded with a smile of his own. "There will be no need, but we are thankful." He stated.

"Where are you guys off to next?" Sam asked.

Eden shrugged. "No idea, hearing Gettysburg is getting pretty hectic. It could use a little help." He said.

"Will we ever see you guys again?" Jazz asked.

"Well that all depends if they like us." Jason said.

I blinked at him. "They? Whose they?" I asked.

Jason smiled mysteriously. "Nothing. We may meet again, it all depends."

"Aaaaaaanyway." Hazel said trying to change the topic. "It's been fun, were glad we could help. If we do meet again let's hope it's on better terms."

"Got that right." Sam said.

We watched and waved the four hunters off as they started to drive off. I was confused why Val was not here but I figured she was hunting down something. I looked over at Nico and grinned. "I guess that leaves you."

Nico nodded slowly before walking up and passing me. "I am deeply sorry for what I had caused." He said addressing everyone.

Sam shook her head with a little smile. "Don't worry about it. You were being controlled by Vlad, he can bring out the worst in anyone he meets." She said.

Nico grinned at her. "Thank you." He looked at me and I felt that fear return from the first time I met the guy. "While being controlled by Vlad I was able to see bits and pieces of his memory. While it is true that he made me attack your town. It was not him who triggered it."

I raised and eyebrow at him defiantly confused. "Then who was leading him?"

"I have a theory, but until then I do not know." He said trying to be vague and by the look on his face I could tell he would not say anymore.

"Thanks again for all the help. I don't think I would have been able to get everyone back to their home on my own." I said.

Nico nodded with a grin. "It was the least I could do. Thanks to the mist, they will all wake up and think the whole thing was a dream, even Vlad." He said.

"Well that's a relief." Jazz said.

Nico nodded and looked over everyone. "I should leave before I cause any more problems." He said then started to walk away.

I watched him walk away for a moment before narrowing my eyes and flying and landing in front of him. He looked up at me with a confused expression. "I have something else I need to ask you." I said.

He studied for a moment before nodding his head. "One who's spirit is like the wind, the spawn of Satan's blood, a hero born from the sea, and one who is neither alive nor dead. What does it mean" I asked

He blinked at me for a moment before shaking his head with a sigh. "That sounds like a part of a prophecy. As for who is in it, you are mentioned along with three others."

I nodded. "I know the one with Satan's blood. It's the other two I don't know about."

Nico closed his eyes to think about it for a moment "I do not know about the one like the wind." He said. I frowned but blinked when I saw a small smile grace his lips. "I may know the hero born from the sea."

My eyes got wide as I felt hope. "You do?" I asked.

He was smiling now. "A real seaweed brain, but a hero none the less. He has to be the one you are talking about; after all he's the only son of the god of the Seas." Nico stated.

"That's great. I have to meet this guy and-"I blinked when Nico griped my shoulder. I looked over at him and saw him shake his head. "Why not?" I asked.

"Prophecies are hard to figure out, almost imposable when you have only a piece of it. Until you know more about what is going on I would suggest you leave my cosine alone." he stated.

"Well than what am I supposed to do?" I asked.

"Wait."

"Wait?!"

"Until we have full detail on what is going on you would be going in blind, and trust me facing a prophecy blind will get you killed. Wait and see what happens. I'll do a little digging on my end and try and figure out more details."

I felt a little better knowing that I wasn't alone in this. "Thanks."

He smiled at me. "No problem. Now go back to your friends before they start thinking you ditched them." He said.

I smiled at him and flew above him and waved. "Thanks again!" before flying back to my friends.

Nico watched him go and he grinned. "Well father you were right about this town, but I think it's better hands than I could ever produce." He said before turning around and disappearing into the shadows of night.

I flew back down to my friends and landed on the ground next to them. Sam walked over to me. and we all began walking back into town. "So what was that about?" she asked.

I thought about telling them but instead just shook my head with a grin. "Just had to ask him something, nothing important." I said turning back into Fenton.

Sam smiled and slipped her arms around my waist causing me to stop. "That all?" she asked leaning up.

I grinned down at her. "Yes that's all." I said leaning down.

"It would have been hot." she said teasingly.

I shook my head and shivered, "No…No it wouldn't."

She grinned. "That's fine. Your all I need." she said closing the distance and kissing me.

We kissed for a few seconds till we heard someone whistle from ahead of us. We saw Tucker tapping his foot looking impatient. "Come on you love birds, we need to get home before our parents wake up and start asking questions." He said.

Sam and I broke away faces flushed slowly but we still held hands as we walked side by side. As we walked I thought about what may happen in the future but then I blinked when I felt Sam now hold my arm and I couldn't help but smile. 'It doesn't matter what happens next. Like any other threat I'll deal with it like I do all the others, with sarcastic jokes and a grade A but whoopin. I won't be scared of the future anymore, because right now my future is looking rather bright.'

Lastly I just want to say that, this would not have been possible without you guys. The fave's the follows, the reviews; it all helped make this story and helped me complete it. For that I say one last time. Thank you.
