Hey! Sorry it's been so long. Serious writers block. Really run out of ideas with this story.
I don't own DP or AD:JL.
Anyway, enjoy the chapter.
Danny and Jake chased down a goblin into a warehouse. It was fast and they had trouble keeping up but as it neared the old abandoned building it started to slow down. They had almost caught it as they reached the centre of the room.
Suddenly Danny started to feel really sick. He thought about the only time he had ever felt that horrible feeling all over his body. Blood Blossoms. He looked up to see that Jake was suffering too. And then he saw saw them. Why were they together? His heart dropped and dread filled his mind. They were doomed.
The day had started off pretty normal. Jake had been shaken awake by Danny. Sometimes he wondered if Danny just got up because he knew he was seeing Sam. There was definitely something there, whether either of them admitted it or not. They had then got breakfast, walked Hayley to school and then walked to their own school. They went through the daily, boring speeches that the teachers called lessons and met up with their friends.
After school the two boys went to the shop to help out Grandpa. They cleaned a bit before Grandpa sent them to go find a rogue goblin. They managed to track it down quite easily. Catching it on the other hand... They chased it round for about an hour before they started gaining on it and getting closer. The had almost caught it as they reached an old warehouse. The followed it inside and to the centre of the room.
Then Jake suddenly got a terrible headache. He was weak and he could no longer stand. He looked to Danny seeing him gripping his stomach. Then he looked up to see someone he thought he'd never see again. Hoped he'd never see again. Along his side someone who Danny was looking at with eyes full of hate. Soon he noticed Danny pass out. Jake looked up one last time with an angry face before all he saw was black.
Grandpa paced up and down the shop. Why were the boys taking so long. It was a simple task. He called the house hoping that they had just decided to go home and had forgot to call. But Susan said they weren't there. He asked Fu but the dog hadn't heard from them either. Neither had any of their friends. Something had gone wrong. Something bad was going to happen. Something really bad.
Danny woke up with his head throbbing. He grunted as he opened his eyes. He couldn't see anything around him. It was too dark. He let his eyes adjust and soon noticed Jake lying beside him. He must have passed out too.
Danny tried to move but felt something around his waist. He looked down to see he was chained to the ground. He tried to change into his ghost half so he could break the chain, but as soon as he did the chain started to glow with ecto-energy. He quickly reverted back to his human half trying not to scream from the pain. The glow of the chain had been enough to rouse Jake from his sleep. He rubbed his eyes and looked around immediately noticing his chained friend.
"What happened?" he asked rubbing his head to get rid of the headache.
"All I remember is going into a warehouse..." Danny said his eyes widening as he remembered what he saw. "Aragon..." Jake looked up at his friend, a memory triggered.
"Dark Dragon..." Jake suddenly looked down noticing the chains. He changed into his dragon form pulling with all his might before reverting back, resigning himself to that fact that he couldn't break them. "They're made from unicorn horns," he mumbled irritated.
"Made from what?" Danny asked.
"Unicorn horns. Strongest substance in the world. It's unbreakable." Danny nodded before sighing. What were they supposed to do? They were trapped goodness knows where, in chains made of the only things that could hold them. What hope was there?
"So what's the plan?" Sam asked looking at the other people in the room. She stood by the back door of the shop facing Trixie, Spud and Tucker, who sat on the sofa. Fu, who Sam still found weird and who she noticed Tucker kept staring at, sat on a stool next to shelves of multi-coloured bottles. Grandpa stood by the door that led to the front of the shop. They all looked at each other unsure of what to say. Then Tucker spoke up.
"Maybe we can tap into security cameras around the area of the goblin's appearance, then track where they went from there."
"Good idea," Sam said. "It's worth a try." Tucker nodded and immediately got started on his PDA. After a few minutes he was done and exclaimed that the last he could see, they went into a warehouse and never came out.
"We need to get to that warehouse then," Fu said as they all jumped up and headed out the door.
"So the Dark Dragon is working with Aragon," Danny said trying to understand what was going on. "But why?"
"We're their greatest enemies," Jake replied. "If we're out of the picture, they can do what they want. They must have realised they couldn't take us down one on one so they decided to take us down together."
"But they didn't know we were together," Danny said suddenly remembering what had happened after the festival. "That's why Aragon's knights went after Trixie and Spud! They were trying to lure you. You can't fight a ghost. They didn't know we were working together. They must have reported back to Aragon and the Dark Dragon."
Jake sighed. What were they supposed to do. Maybe they were too touch to beat working together. But maybe Jake and Danny could be just as tough. They weren't that different from each other, after all.
The group arrived at the ware house but they couldn't see anything. Where were those boys? What had happened? As they looked around they heard laughter. Not the pleasant kind that you want to laugh along with. The evil kind that sends shivers down your spine. The kind that let's you know something bad is about to happen. They turned to see the Dark Dragon with an evil smile upon his lips. Grandpa changed into his dragon form and readied himself for the fight to come.
"Lao Shi," the Dark Dragon said. "A please to see you again. It's been a long time."
"What have you done with my grandson?" the old man replied.
"I removed him from the equation. With him gone, there's no one to stop me. Not even you." Grandpa was about to lurch forwards when he felt something holding him back. He looked down to see he was being held in place by ghost knights. Suddenly from behind the Dark Dragon emerged another figure.
"Aragon!" Sam and Tucker yelled at the ghost who merely laughed.
"If it isn't my should have been bride," Aragon said, his lizard tongue hissing as he spoke. "You should have married me when you had the chance. Then this could have been avoided. But you went away with the ghost boy and turned my sister against me." His eyes tuned red and the amulet around his neck glowed. Hi transformed into a dragon and loomed over the figures beneath him.
"What did you do with Danny?" Sam yelled feeling the anger swell up inside of her.
"He is gone, along with the dragon boy."
"There has to be a way out," Danny said looking around. "There's always a way out!" He looked at the room. Now that his eyes had adjusted he realised that they were in a room with no windows, no doors and no air vents. The only way out would be to Phase through the walls. But to do that first Danny would have to get out of the chains, but every time he tried to use his powers the ecto-energy shocked him. If only they had put him in the same chains Jake had. That would have been easier. Wait...
"Jake!" Danny exclaimed, an idea coming to mind.
"What?" the boy asked hearing the hope in his friends voice.
"Can you reach my chains?" Jake tried stretching. Maybe not in his human form, but is dragon form was longer. He changed forms and reached for the chains. He could just about grab hold of them.
"Yeah, why?"
"I need you to break them!" Danny replied.
"I can't break them!" Jake replied, the hope disappearing. "I told you, unicorn horn is unbreakable."
"Except mine aren't made from unicorn horn," Danny said. Jake looked closer at the chains and realised that his friend was right. They were made from ordinary metal. He grabbed hold of the chains and pulled as hard as he could. The chains snapped, a few charges of ecto-energy fizzling out as he did.
Danny changed forms and braced for the pain. When it didn't come he smiled. Phased through the rest of the chains and walked over to Jake. He quickly Phased him out of his chains and they searched around the room for any sign of escape.
"Now what?" asked Jake as they found nothing.
"Now we phase through the roof," Danny said flying up and turning intangible. Just as he reached the roof he found he couldn't phase through it and hit his head. Jake then flew up and tried to ram into the ceiling using all his dragon strength to break it, but it didn't work.
"Whatever they've done to this means we can't get out," Jake said with a sigh.
"They built this to withstand our individual abilities," Danny said. "But if we work together, combining those abilities, maybe we can break through." Jake nodded. They grabbed onto each other, Danny turning them both intangible. Using all their strength they rammed into the wall, Danny trying his hardest to phase them through. It worked. They came out in a room above the ceiling. It looked like they were still in the warehouse. Just a different part. Then they heard laughter. Evil laughter. and they knew exactly where to go next.
Aragon's ghosts held them all in place as the two evils decided what they would do with them. Would they destroy them there, or use them as an example to others. The ghost zone and the dragon council would soon found out and they'd need something to give them fear.
"You won't get away with this!" Spud shouted before Trixie kicked him telling him to shut up.
"Oh, but we already have," the Dark Dragon smiled down at the boy.
"I thought I heard your ugly voice," someone said from the other side of the warehouse. They all looked up to see Jake and Danny in the doorway.
"Jake!" Spud, Trixie, Grandpa and Fu yelled in happiness.
"Danny!" Sam and Tucker yelled glad to see their friend was ok.
"How did they escape?!" Aragon yelled his amulet glowing even brighter than before, his eyes turning a darker shade of red.
"What? Just because you're working together doesn't mean we can't?" Danny replied with a smug look on his face. Suddenly the boys disappeared. The Dark Dragon looked around but he couldn't see them anywhere.
"Where did they go?" he asked his partner.
"He must have gone invisible," the ghost dragon answered. "Find them!" he said turning back to his knights." They nodded and went off to find them. Sam and Tucker jumped as Danny suddenly appeared by their side and shot the ghosts holding them in place. Now Sam was free to move she could finally get the thermos out of her back pack. She handed it to Danny and he smiled, thanking her before he told the two of them to get out of the warehouse. They didn't argue and fled.
Danny then turned to Spud and Trixie pushing down on the button on the side of the thermos, trapping the ghosts that held them inside. Jake then picked them up and carried them outside.
Next Danny sucked up the knights holding back Grandpa and Fu. Fu quickly made his escape just as Jake came back.
The two dragons and one ghost boy then turned their attention to the Dark Dragon and Aragon. They were both furious. Aragon sent more of his knights their way. Danny told Jake he'd hold them off if they got Aragon. Jake and Grandpa charged at the dragon and the fight began.
Danny fired ecto-blast after ecto-blast wiping out the knights and sucking them into the thermos before turning his attention to Aragon. The ghost dragon breathed his green fiery breath on the boy. Danny dodged as much as he could, firing an ecto-blast every now and then, holding up a shield when he couldn't get out of the way fast enough. Soon he decided he'd had enough.
The next time Aragon used his fiery breath, Danny countered with an ice-blast. Fire and ice collided dancing between the two as they fought to gain control. Danny reached deep into his ice-core and pulled on all the power within him throwing it all into the blast. His eyes glowed blue as ice won over fire and Aragon was encased in a cocoon of ice. Danny quickly sucked him into the thermos and turned his attention to the dragons.
While Danny had been battling with Aragon, Jake and Grandpa had been taking it in turns distracting the Dark Dragon while the other dealt as many blows as possible. Soon the dragon had had enough and let out a stream of black fire all around him knocking them both back.
They regrouped and flew up into the air before diving down straight for the Dark Dragon. He prepared for them but didn't expect them to suddenly veer away and come around the back knocking him in the back of the head causing him to see black and fall down. Jake smiled at his Grandpa before turning to Danny just in time to see a frozen Aragon pulled into the thermos.
The two boys sat on the sofa back at the Long's house. The jam packed thermos had gone back to Amity Park with Tucker to be emptied into the ghost zone. The Dark Knight had been delivered to the Dragon Council. For now they were taking a well needed break. But when trouble arose again, they would rise to meet it.
The two boys may look like opposites and have distant personalities, but when you looked closely, they weren't as different as you think.
