Target: Phantom

Chapter 1: The Unique Hero

As the Brain along with the Gorilla and Madame Rogue were looking over the types of super heroes they were targeting besides the Teen Titans, there were images of Danny Phantom fighting one of his arch enemies-Skulcker on one of the scenes. The image went by so fast that the Brain couldn't even pick it up.

"Turn back to the other image on the screen" said the Brain.

"You mean back to the one with the Titans East?" asked the Gorilla.

"No" replied the Brain, "the other image which the teen with white hair and green eyes."

As the Gorilla changed the image on the screen back to Danny Phantom fighting Skulcker, the scene than changes to Amity Park; where Danny is fighting Skulcker in a park.

"Face it prey" said Skulcker as he loaded up his weapons, "I have you this time."

"You want to try and hit me like you did last time?" asked Danny.

"I'm fed up constantly hunting you; and you getting away" replied Skulcker, "sometimes I wish somebody else would do my job."

"Maybe whoever it is will do a better job than you" said Danny sarcastically, "because you are a pathetic hunter if you are unable to catch me."

"True" said Skulcker agreeing with Danny, "too bad Deserie isn't around to hear that wish. Oh well."

Skulcker then fires some sort of claw out of some bazooka-like weapon at Danny, grabbing his chest. Skulcker then presses a button on his weapon and it begins to shock Danny. He screams in pain and then reaches to the claw and concentrates his power. Skulcker could see a green glow from Danny's hand which was on his mechanical claw. The green glow then hits Skulcker, shocking him and setting Danny free.

"Why you little!" shouted Skulcker as he tried to recover from the attack.

"Sorry" replied Danny as he took out the Fenton thermos, "but you know the routine when you are defeated."

Danny then sucks Skulcker into the Fenton thermos and then closes the lid.

"Danny, did you get Skulcker yet?" asked Sam on the communicator.

"Yea" replied Danny, "Skulcker is just getting easier and easier to beat every time he escapes the Ghost Zone. He's almost as pathetic as Technius and the Box Ghost combined."

"I heard that" said Skulcker while still in the Fenton thermos.

As Danny takes off to meet with Sam and Tucker, the scene then switches back to the Brain, the Gorilla and Madame Rogue.

"Hmm" said the Brain, "this Danny Phantom character seems to be pretty unique."

"I myself have never seen a power like that" said the Gorilla.

"He looks more challenging than the Titans" said Madame Rogue.

"I want you to go to Amity Park" said the Brain as he turned to Madame Rogue, "you have been a valuable agent to me, and I believe you can go and investigate this Danny Phantom character."

"I have also found out" said the Gorilla as he started to turn to the Brain, "that this Danny Phantom was also given a communicator by the Titans."

"Then it should be easy to find out where he is" said Madame Rogue, "since my victory with Hotspot, I can go to Amity Park and find him and capture this Danny Phantom."

"Yes" said the Brain, "I am most interested in looking into the DNA of this Danny Phantom and use it against the Titans. We can try to find a way how a human would acquire these powers."

"Don't worry" said Madame Rogue, "I'll make sure I'll defeat this Danny Phantom."

The next day, as school ended, Danny was waiting for Sam and Tucker to come out of class so that they can walk to his house. As Danny was waiting for them, a strange woman in a trench coat came into the scene.

"Can I help you?" asked Danny.

"I'm looking for this ghost boy" replied the woman as she showed Danny a photo of himself in his ghost mode fighting Skulcker.

"Uh, I haven't seen him" said Danny as sweat began to roll down his forehead then as his two friends emerged from the school Danny quickly walked toward them, "but I'm sure he's around here somewhere."

"What was that all about?" asked Tucker to Danny as they began walking down the street.

"I don't know" replied Danny, "but I'm pretty suspicious that the photo that strange woman had in her hands was indeed from the fight I had with Skulcker last night."

"That's very creepy" said Sam, "even for me and I'm a Goth."

"Well that's a first" said Danny.

As the three continue to walk down the street and head toward the Fenton residence, Madame Rogue was secretly observing the three. She then turned into a dark alleyway and took out her communicator.

"Madame Rogue to the Brain" said Madame Rogue, "I think I know who this Danny Phantom really is, or a possibility of which person might be him."

"Very good" said the Brain, "continue and observe your prey. Then when your prey least expects it, surprise your prey and strike it down."

"I'll do that" said Madame Rogue as she turned off her communicator.

As Madame Rogue continues to sneak down the street spying on Danny and her friends, she notices some old newspapers that are scattered on the ground. They were all old torn up newspapers, but as Madame Rogue picked up some of them from the ground, she noticed the same photos of Danny Phantom in the newspapers along with information that the Fentons were a family of ghost hunters.

"Hmm" said Madame Rogue, "this is a new and unexpected lead in my hunt."

Madame Rogue then changed herself into a news reporter with her powers and then began to walk down toward the Fenton residence. As she left the scene, Skulcker who was secretly observing Danny came out of the wall.

"Another hunter?" asked Skulcker, "This hunter isn't a ghost like me; perhaps I should keep tabs on this new hunter I have recently encountered. I mean, I don't want to be replaced."

Skulcker then became invisible again and then carefully followed Madame Rogue to the Fenton residence.
