Hello all Storm here with a special update! I have updated three of my stories Jinchuuriki to Ghost, Scream, and The Second Coming of Darth Vader! That's right three updates at once, since I've been making new stories I figured I'd update more than one this time around. So, without further ado.

I own nothing

"Stupid dipstick and his stupid friends, I swear next time I get out of here I'm gonna…" Ember trailed off making a strangling motion with her hands after having yet again been thrown back into the Ghost Zone by Danny Phantom and his little friends again

What's worse this time is that annoying little halfa broke her guitar strings! Nobody messes with her guitar and gets away with it!

Her appearance hadn't changed much since her arrival in the Ghost Zone twenty years ago, though she now looked eighteen rather than the short ten-year-old she used to be.

Her long flaming teal hair was now done up in a ponytail, of which she could make look like flames or real hair, two locks of hair framing her face to form a sharp shaped M, purple lipstick, her clothing was attractive and appealing in nature, consisting of a black choker around her neck, a black one-shouldered tank-top exposing her midriff, one long glove that covers most of her right arm, and one black bracelet on her left arm, and leather pants with a silver belt and skull boots. She also gained black markings around and below her eyes the left one being fang shaped and the right one being a partial swirl. While her guitar hung from it's leather strap off her shoulder.

Honestly Ember wasn't sure if she had ever been caught dead wearing something like this when she was alive, she probably would have ended up wearing something hideous like an orange jumpsuit.

'Aaand now that image is forever burned into my mind.' Ember thought shivering before banishing the image to the back of her mind and flying off soon arriving at Clockwork's citadel

While she, like every other ghost in the Ghost Zone, possessed her own home she still had her room in Clockwork's citadel which he was kind enough to let her keep, even after she started trying to take over the human world.

Though if Ember was honest with her self she didn't even really care about ruling the human world anymore, now it's mostly just to get payback on the dipstick for the times he's ruined her concerts.

Besides ruling an entire planet sounds like way too much work for her.

"Ah, Ember back already. I take it young Daniel thwarted you yet again." Clockwork said not taking his eyes off the portals that overlooked all of time

"Yeah, yeah laugh it up gramps. I'm going to my room." Grumbled Ember stalking up to her room

Opening the door Ember set her guitar down and went over to her closet pulling out a case of spare strings. Grabbing one she began the process of replacing the strings with a great amount of tenderness most Ghosts would be surprised she had, only those closest to Ember knew how much she valued her guitar, as it was the first gift Clockwork ever gave her.

There wasn't anything she valued more that her guitar and while yes, she has broken the strings a few times, accidently, when she began learning to play, it still pissed her off that dipstick broke one.

Once the strings were replaced Ember strummed a few chords, making minor adjustments, until she was satisfied with the music.

'Now what am I supposed to do?' Ember thought since she couldn't go back to the human world for a while

She'd go visit her friends, but Kitty had a date with Johnny and Penelope was off sucking the misery out of teenagers.

So, she decided to go bother Clockwork.

Going downstairs she found him in the same position watching his time portals. Not bothering to sneak up on him, knowing it'd be impossible for someone who's omniscient.

"I'm bored." Stated Ember

"Alright." Clockwork said

"Why do you watch these other timelines aren't you all-knowing?" Ember asked never seeing the point of watching time when he already knew all the outcomes that could occur

"Simple, while true I know everything that could happen, if I used only my powers to see what would happen then I would be little more than an Observant seeing the timeline with only a beginning and an end rather than all the twist and turns it might, or might not, take. It also helps to know if there would come a moment when I will personally have to interfere, though I mostly prefer to not to." Clockwork explained

"Unless it involves the dipstick golden boy right." Ember said crossing her arms

"Young Daniel is a special case." Clockwork replied

"More like headcase." Muttered Ember under her breath while hearing a rattling sound from the other room

"Yes, well as you know I made sure he could not happen in the future." Assured Clockwork

"Yeah you just made sure he now permanently exists outside of time and I now have to deal with the fact I live in the same place as a future psycho version of the dipstick that shattered my vocal chords." Ember said with a deadpan expression crossing her arms before a thought crossed her

"Hey, can this thing show my old world?" Asked Ember, surprising Clockwork a little

"It can, though I'm surprised I thought you no longer cared about your old world." Clockwork said

"Oh I don't I just want to see what Kurama left of Konoha, you know besides a massive crater." Smirked Ember

"Right." This time Clockwork deadpanned before the screen changed to that of the Elemental Countries

"This is the Elemental Countries four years after your death, time moves differently in the Ghost Zone." Explained Clockwork seeing her confused look

"Anyway after the sudden and unexpected destruction of Konoha the other great villages sent teams to retrieve anything of use that wasn't destroyed, after Kurama was far enough away, along with taking hostage any clan members that managed to escape and I'm sure you can guess what happened to them." Clockwork said

"Oooh absolutely." Replied Ember with a dark grin knowing any clan members captured would be used to create more Kekkei Genkai users loyal to whatever village captured them

"By the way what happened to Kurama?" Ember asked while she and Kurama couldn't be considered friends she would at least wanna thank the fox for keeping its word

"I'm not sure after destroying Konoha Kurama simply vanished if I had to guess he went somewhere far from any humans where he could finally be left alone." Clockwork said

While he was among the strongest and oldest ghosts the Tailed Beasts were beyond even Pariah Dark when empowered by his ring and crown and were capable of hiding their presence from even him.

"What else?" Questioned Ember

"Well aside from more open conflicts between the villages, mostly over the now free territory in Fire Country, anything that was still intact from Konoha, and any Kekkei Genkai users that villages want, it's pretty much the same before you left." Clockwork replied, Ember humming in thought before smirking

"Hm, I think it's time for a trip back home." Said Ember flying over and grabbing a medallion before going through the portal back to the Elemental Countries

"I swear that girl." Clockwork sighed rubbing his temples

*Elemental Countries*

Ember exited a portal up in the air. Looking she saw she was right above the ruins of Konoha, making her whistle in amazement.

"Wow, I know asked Kurama to make this place a memory but wow he really went all out on them." Ember said

Floating lower for a better look Ember then took notice of a fight in the ruins, on closer inspection she saw is was a group of Kumo Ninja against a redheaded girl, that looked just a few years older than Ember physically looked, wearing a headband with a music note.

This made Ember growl in anger, while in the Ghost Zone she'd learned of her mother's near kidnapping by Kumo Ninja had her father not saved her and Ember knew what would have happened to her had she been taken to Kumo.

This left Ember with a deep-seeded hatred for all Kumo Ninja, nearly as much as her hatred for Konoha.

Another look showed that the Kumo Ninja weren't fighting to kill the redhead but to capture her.

'Not if I can help it.' Ember thought while she didn't know the girl or care who she was if it meant ruining any plan Kumo had then she's all for it

*Konoha Ruins*

Tayuya was not having a good day, in fact she hasn't been having good few years. Ever since the destruction of Konoha the whole of the Elemental Countries had been going to hell in a handbag.

It started out with villages raiding the ruins to take anything of value not destroyed by the Kyuubi, then the refugee's that survived the attack, mostly those with Kekkei Genkai, began being abducted to be used as breeding stock for villages to create their own clans, finally came fights over trying to take the territory in Fire Country with Konoha no longer there to stop anyone.

Tayuya was sure it wouldn't be long before the Fourth Shinobi War would be declared.

Of course her master Orochimaru was taking advantage of the chaos caused and began abducting more Kekkei Genkai users, though he was beyond angry when it was confirmed that Sasuke Uchiha was killed in the second Kyuubi attack, his body destroyed, ending any chance he had of getting the Sharingan with the Uchiha now dead, having gotten reports that Itachi Uchiha died of some unknown disease.

So, Orochimaru sent her along with the rest of the Sound Four to raid some secret bunkers that used to belong to some mummy looking fucker. Though when they arrived at the ruins of Konoha it was decided Tayuya would go alone to get anything she could find, much to the flute players anger, but relented since this way if she finds anything she likes she can keep it for herself and no one would be the wiser.

That is until she was ambushed by Kumo Ninja showed up and recognized her Oto headband for being affiliated with Orochimaru. What's worse rather than trying to kill her the bastards wanted to capture her, likely to torture her for whatever information she had on the Snake Sannin and who knows what else, though Tayuya had a few ideas none of them pleasant.

'And what's worse I'm starting to run low on chakra. Damn it all!' Tayuya mentally cursed

Her Doki were useless against skilled and experienced Jonin, and her Genjutsu didn't work as they could easily see through it and if she did capture one of them in her illusions they'd simply be freed of it by one of their comrades.

'Speaking of where the hell are those three dumbasses!' Thought Tayuya angrily that none of her teammates have come to help her

"Hey losers!" A female voice shouted before they heard a guitar being played then a large green fist slammed down where the Kumo Ninja were making them scatter

'What the fuck?' Tayuya thought seeing her apparent savior

A flying blue skinned girl dressed like a punk rocker and flaming teal hair in a ponytail.

'Well at least she has style.' Thought Tayuya looking at the guitar

"Great now there are two of them." One Jonin said

"Who cares this'll just mean double the reward when we capture both of them, especially that blue chick. The Raikage will be pleased." Retorted another Jonin his comrades nodding in agreement, making both Ember and Tayuya growl in anger

"Hey Red, you know any good songs with that flute?" Ember asked

"A couple yeah though all of them might be pleasant for these guys." Replied Tayuya smirking, which Ember mirrored

"Good, then play the worst one and I'll amp it up." Ember said switching her guitar dial to power augmentation

While Tayuya normally wouldn't trust a stranger, even if they did help her, she also figured what did she have to lose.

"Demonic Flute: Phantom Sound Chains." Said Tayuya as she began playing

As expected the Jonin all immediately covered their ears to block the Genjutsu, sadly Ember then played her guitar increasing the power of the Genjutsu to still take control of them.

Tayuya raised a brow in amazement when the Genjutsu took affect even when it was being blocked.

"Power Augmentation, it increases the power of any attack it's played with." Ember said floating down to the ground

"Nice, now if you excuse me I'm gonna take care of these shitheads." Smirked Tayuya pulling out a kunai and began approaching the immobilized Jonin

"Wait, wait, wait. Let me I've got a new attack I've been wanting to try." Ember said stopping her

Tayuya paused for a moment a little annoyed she was stopped but decided to let Ember show what she can do.

"Be my guest." Said Tayuya stepping aside letting Ember step forward

'This is gonna be so awesome! Though I was hoping to use it on dipstick first, but eh this works just fine.' Thought Ember tilting her head back and taking a deep breath

Ember then threw her head forwards and unleashed a loud piercing scream releasing a destructive wave of ecto-energy from her mouth that was also covered in blue flames. The energy wave impacted the Jonin sending them flying back while the flames began burning their bodies to ash. Tayuya covered her ears at the high-pitch of the sonic wave, while also amazed at the power

Once there was nothing left Ember stopped the attack and cheered.

"Yes, take that Phantom! By Scorching Siren Scream blows your Ghostly Wail out of the water!" Ember cheered

She had been working on the attack ever since she saw the dipstick and his future-self use the Ghostly Wail and Ember knew she had to learn the attack, as not only was it a sound-based attack, and sound was her thing, but it was just so awesome!

Plus not only has she learned it she made it better by incorporating her flames, thus creating the Scorching Siren Scream, as rather than a moaning ghost sound it made a high-pitched scream like a siren or a banshee.

"Woah, that was so awesome!" Tayuya said loudly

If she could learn something like she could easily become the strongest of the Sound Four, maybe even stronger than Kimimaro!

"By the way, thanks… for the help." Said Tayuya begrudgingly not used to thanking anyone

But Tayuya realized if Ember hadn't interfered she would have been captured.

"No problem, us girls have to stick together right." Said Ember crossing her arms

"…Right." Tayuya agreed

"By the way I'm Ember McLain." Ember introduced

"Tayuya." Said Tayuya

"So, wanna explain why your… blue and your hairs on fire." Tayuya said while she saw some strange things working with Orochimaru blue skin and flaming hair were not among them

"I'm a ghost." Revealed Ember, Tayuya snorting in disbelief

"Yeah riiiiiiggghhhttt…" Tayuya trailed off her eyes widening as ember suddenly turned intangible before flying up and her legs briefly vanishing with a ghost tail in their place the flying back down

"Believe me now." Ember said with a smirk

"A punk rock ghost girl just saved my life. Huh, strangely enough that's not as surprising as I thought it'd be." Said Tayuya

"So what else can that guitar of yours do?" Tayuya asked

"Oh she can do lots of things, what about your flute?" Asked Ember as she never met another person, ghost or otherwise, that used music as their weapon

Regular sound sure, but not music.

"Mostly just Genjutsu and summoning my Doki." Tayuya shrugged, Ember scoffing

"Lame. If your gonna use an instrument as weapon at least give it some variety." Said Ember, Tayuya scowling at that

"Then what would you suggest oh great one." Tayuya retorted sarcastically

"Not right now maybe another time and I'll give your flute a tune up." Ember said flying into the air

"You don't even know what village I'm from!" Reminded Tayuya

"Don't worry I'll find you, we'll meet in the space between!" Ember replied

'Hm, Space Between, that could a good song.' Thought Ember flying off

"What the fuck does that mean?" Tayuya wondered in confusion

Shrugging her shoulders Tayuya went back to finding those bunkers Orochimaru sent them to find.

*Timeskip-three days-With Ember*

'Where are you?' Ember thought flying around the Elemental Countries

After her encounter with Tayuya she had started flying all over the Elemental Countries looking for Kurama, which lead to her looking in non-populated areas without any humans nearby.

So far she has had little luck in locating the fox but figured she'd have some luck finding the Tailed Beast being its former host. Though Ember was starting to get annoyed at the lack of progress, there was a limited number of places. Flying down to the ground Ember kicked down a tree and began pacing.

"Where are you, you stupid fox!" Ember shouted as loudly as she could

"No need to shout brat." Said a familiar voice, making Ember freeze in place before mechanically turning around

Ember watched as the air behind her shimmered revealing Kurama with a vulpine smirk.

"You were there the entire time, for how long?!" Demanded Ember

"I sensed you the minute you arrived here, I started following you after you helped that girl in used to be Konoha." Kurama revealed

"You've been… following me… the entire time… I've been back… AND YOU NEVER THOUGHT TO SAY ANYTHING!" Ember said slowly before yelling her ponytail flaring

"It was amusing to see you failing to find me." Said Kurama not at all affected by her anger

"So, I'm surprised to see you back her brat, even more that you're a ghost I would have thought you'd go to the pure lands." Kurama said

"Yeah well what can I say I'm to awesome to stay down long. Besides I like the new me way better than the old one. Ember McLain the Ghost Zones Punk Rock Diva." Said Ember proudly, Kurama rolling his eyes

"Sure whatever you say girl. Why are you even back here I thought you'd be glad never to see this place again?" Kurama said as he began walking away Ember floating by his head

"What can I say I got bored and wanted to have some fun. By the way thanks for keeping your promise and destroying that place." Said Ember

"I would have destroyed it even if you didn't ask. Konoha had earned my everlasting hatred ever since that bastard Madara controlled me then Hashirama and his wife sealing me for decades." Kurama growled

"So what have you been up to, destroyed any villages recently?" Questioned Ember, Kurama scoffing in response

"No, I wouldn't waste my time just to destroy a few measly humans. Despite what these humans believe I only destroy and kill those who anger me, other than that these humans are doing a good enough job destroying themselves." Kurama said

"Though there is something you should know, a group called the Akatsuki has been hunting down Jinchuuriki to extract their Tailed Beasts. They've tried capturing me but with my ability to sense Negative Emotions I can avoid them well enough." Kurama said

"I'm surprised you haven't just killed them already, and what does this have to do with me I'm not a Jinchuuriki anymore." Reminded Ember

"I would have killed them if not for their leader being that masked bastard who extracted from your mother the night you were born and the figurehead possessing the Rinnegan." Growled Kurama in anger

That made Ember stop as she clenched her fists in anger, the masked Uchiha that was responsible for ruining her life, her parents death, her becoming a Jinchuuriki, every bad thing that ever happened to her can lead back to him.

"Lucky me I just found another reason to stick around here a little longer." Ember said smiling darkly

"If your going after the Akatsuki, I'll be helping I'm not stopping until every Uchiha is dead." Said Kurama knowing it was time for Indra's bloodline to be extinguished

"I wouldn't have it any other way." Ember said

She'll finally get her final revenge and then can finally put the Elemental Countries behind her.

*Timeskip-three weeks*

Three weeks have passed since Ember returned to the Elemental Countries, in that time she has worked on learning more of her ghost abilities, as after getting her guitar she had begun using only that rather than her other abilities besides her pyrokinesis.

But if she plans to take on the Akatsuki she'll have to get stronger. But while Ember doubts she'll be able to fight them on even footing she had no intention of fighting fairly, especially when she can overshadow them and make them attack each other.

She also met up with Tayuya and they traded tips on their different fighting styles, Ember putting different symbols on Tayuya's flute that she can channel chakra into for different affects, while Tayuya taught Ember how perform illusions with her guitar though it was more difficult as Ember no longer possessed chakra, but she eventually got it to work.

Other than that it felt good to have a girlfriend with a similar personality to her own, Ember loved Kitty and Spectra like sisters but their personalities tended to clash with each other.

It's just a plus Tayuya was pretty hot and a redhead to boot, guess Ember got that from her father.

Though Ember was a little concerned when she learned Tayuya worked for Orochimaru, while she didn't care that she worked for the rogue Sannin what concerned the ghost was that from what she knew Orochimaru wasn't the type that'd like his subordinates getting stronger. And with the extra training she's been giving to Tayuya, Ember's worried the Sannin might do something to her friend.

'She should have been here by now.' Ember thought tapping her foot nervously

She was supposed to meet Tayuya in the same spot they had for three weeks and neither have been late for more than five minutes and half an hour has already passed.

'Alright that's it I'm going to find her.' Ember thought flying off in the direction Tayuya usually comes from

Flying quickly Ember looked around for any sign of Tayuya but not seeing her. Suddenly Ember stopped and gasped before flying down to the ground

"Tayuya!" Ember shouted seeing her friend trapped under a bunch of trees

Throwing the trees off her Ember checked her friend wincing when she saw all her injuries. Checking for a pulse Ember found a weak one, relieving that her friend was still alive, but she was still worried as she couldn't heal her or move her without worry she could die. There wasn't anything Ember could do.

'Well there's that.' Ember thought remembering something Clockwork told her

Though it wasn't a guarantee Tayuya will live but Ember wasn't about to lose a friend.

'I really hope I don't regret this later.' Thought Ember pulling out one of Tayuya' kunai and cutting her palm

Ember then let her ectoplasm drip into Tayuya's wounds letting it seep into her body.

'Come on please work.' Ember mentally pleaded

For a moment nothing happened making Ember believe it didn't work, that is until a black ring appeared around Tayuya before splitting into two around her transforming her. Ember saw she now had light purple skin, long white hair, black horns coming out of her head, wearing a long flowing white robe. Tayuya's eyes then snapped open revealing them to be neon green with black sclerae.

Looking around rapidly Tayuya's eyes soon stopped on Ember's relieved form.

"Ember, what the fuck are you doing, where are we even?" Tayuya questioned looking around confused

"I don't know, but it worked that's all that mattered." Said Ember relieved, confusing Tayuya

"Worked? What worked? What're you- why the fuck am I purple?!" Tayuya shouted taking notice of her now purple skin before noticing her change in clothes and longer now white hair

"Yeah that's the thing I found nearly dead and I had to do something to save you…" Ember trailed off

"So your saying I'm a ghost now." Said Tayuya

"Half-ghost, you're a halfa. Half-ghost half-human. It was the only thing I could think to make sure you stayed… semi-alive." Said Ember

Tayuya looked herself over taking in her new appearance, she couldn't help but think it looked like her second stage curse mark form, only a different color scheme. That thought made her remember how she was nearly killed making growl in anger.

"Those backstabbing sons of bitches! When I get my hands on them I'm going to tear their skulls out and beat them to death with them!" Tayuya cursed not caring if that was physically impossible

She'll find a way!

"You mind sharing with the rest of the class." Said Ember with a raised brow guessing Tayuya remembered who attacked her

"My shithead teammates were the ones who attacked me, they said it was on snake-faces orders. Oh I'm going to make them regret not finishing the job." Tayuya said as she began cackling evilly

"Well in that case how about we get you trained in your ghost powers before getting some well-deserved payback." Said Ember with a smirk

"I like the way you think." Tayuya agreed as they stood up both knowing one thing

They were going to raise hell together.

So, what did you think, good. Yep Ember's returned to the Elemental Countries and met a fellow music lover and an old friend, now she'll be getting some well earned pay back on the so-called masked man who is the cause of all her pain, along with helping Tayuya get some payback as well. So, review if you liked go away if you didn't.

Storm out
