Saintly Phantom Chapter One
Crazy idea that I got when watching some Saints Row, Danny Phantom and reading the MikeX713's story, Viral Saints. I am actually surprised this has not been done before.
I OWN NOTHING-'Phantom Planet' never happened in this.
:Story Start:
Two years prior-Amity Park-A couple weeks after 'D-stablized'-Amity Fair in the park
It was a nice day in the most haunted place in America, nice and sunny while still with a cool breeze. On this day five teen were enjoying their time playing some festival games, a simple ring toss. The one throwing the ring was a young girl of nine years wearing a red cap, a blue coat and red pants. Next was an African American teen of fourteen wearing a red cap, yellow shirt, beige pants, thick rimmed glasses and holding a PDA. Next was a Caucasian female teen goth of fourteen, wearing black clothes with purple leggings. Next is another female of seventeen with red hair dressed in jeans and a black blouse. Last was a teen boy with black hair, white and red shirt, and blue jeans. These are Danielle, Tucker, Sam, Jazz and Danny.
Danielle managed to catch the ring on the golden grand prize where she was meant to win a giant panda, only for the roadie to give her a tiny teddy bear before saying, "Sorry you need to catch the gold post with all five to win the Panda," Danielle shrugs and accepts the prize before the group head for a hotdog stand and each getting a one, while Danielle got herself a second one.
The group walked when Danny asks his younger 'cousin' a question, "Sorry about the Panda, how are you feeling?"
"I am fine," Danielle answers before saying, "Not like I could keep it," her tone was simple and reserved.
Jazz spoke, "You do realise that all we would have to do is talk to our parents' right."
Danielle smiles before saying, "No, I think they have enough Ghost Problems without needlessly adding to it."
Sam spoke, "I doubt that they would notice."
Tucker added, "Yeah, like installing the same version of Microsoft Word on a computer that already had it. If you don't tell anyone, how would they know."
"I was referring to Danny," Danielle countered before saying, "I doubt he would like me stealing his 'thunder' during constant Ghost attacks."
Danny fake laughed as they walked towards the rollercoaster before saying, "Let's just enjoy today," when he turned around they were blasted back by the rollercoaster exploding."
That was when a mechanical voice spoke up above them, "HA HA HA, I Skulker the Hunter have combined with the ultimate form of technological power of Technus," that was heard with a nerdy voice that says, "And the more technology that we consume the stronger we will be."
The group looked up to see a heavily muscular torso with a flaming head and tentacles extending from the base of his belt. (Save you some time, it is the future version of Skulker from 'The Ultimate Enemy' which was an alternate future.) Super Skulker laughed as he started creating large amounts of damage to the fair ground as the Danny and his friends ran away. Skulker continued to laugh as he was blasted by a pink energy blast from a teenage girl wearing a red and black body suit riding a twin prong surf board.
Danny looked at the girl and says, "Looks like Valerie is here, but my parents are?" that was when a large white RV/Tank drove over a food cart before two adults wearing latex looking bodysuits holding large white bazooka like ray guns blasting at Super Skulker.
"EAT ECTOPLASM GHOST!" the larger of the two, wearing an orange and black suit and appears to weigh the same as a car. This is Jack Fenton, father of Danny and Jazz, and one of the biggest experts on the science of Ghost along with his wife, Maddie, who is wearing a navy blue latex suit. "MADDIE COOKIE!" Unfortunately Jack is considered an idiot even though he has invented some of the most powerful anti ghost weapons on the planet, along with inventions that have saved ghosts in the past.
Maddie blasts at Skulker only for Super Skulker's tentacle legs extended towards Maddie and Jack, before absorbing the technology in their suits and weapons which heavily damaged their clothes.
Once Danny and Danielle were far enough away, they both had white rings appear around their waists before splitting up and down covering their bodies with black and white suits and changing their hair colour to white before Danny Phantom speaks to the others, "Look, if Skulker really did fuse with Technus then I can't use any technology," he hands Jazz the thermos before saying, "I go in try to weaken Super Skulker while you guys strike so that he can't get out."
Jazz asks, "How do you know any of this?"
Danny answered, "Time travel. We went to the future and met a future evil version of myself, after we were attacked by Super Skulker," he looks past their cover and sees his parents struggling to fight Skulker. Phantom frowns before saying, "Dani attack from a distance avoid Valerie's weapons."
Dani Phantom nods before saying, "Are you going to Wail on them?"
"Last resort Dani," Danny Phantom replied as his hands glowed light blue before saying, "Let's put him on ice," The two Phantoms floated in the air before speeding towards Skulker. Danny speaks, "HEY SKULKER or do you prefer Technus?"
Super Skulker and Technus' faces stare at Danny Phantom as he shoots him with blue energy covering Skulker was covered in thick ice covered Skulker before Valerie blew up the ice around Skulker before Valerie focused fire on Danny. Skulker laughs and says, "Ha, Ghost Whelp you do all this to protect humans and yet they fully intend to destroy you," he continues to laugh as he starts blasting everyone with the tentacles for legs.
Maddie looked at Skulker strangely before Danny says, "And yet you sacrificed your individuality? What did Vlad Plasmius decide to stop upgrading your gear?"
Maddie looked at them while muttering, "Vlad Plasmius?" while thinking, 'why does Phantom's saying Vlad remind me of Danny talking about Vlad Masters?'
Danny avoided Skulker and Valerie attacks when Dani blasts Skulker from above while waving to Valerie, "Hey Valerie, are you here to enjoy the fair as well?"
Valerie growls and says, "Beat it kid, you will just get in the way," She flies past Dani on her surf board and shooting at Danny and Skulker.
Dani blasts Skulker before shouting to Valerie, "This guy absorbs technology to get stronger! If he touches you, all your gear what do you think will happen?"
Valerie avoided the tendrils before saying, "Thanks for the warning!" she shoots at Skulker when he was frozen again and breaking him out.
Valerie shoots at Danny again where he shouts, "Look can this wait until after Super Skulker is dealt with. You know, before Super Skulker does something, that you know ENDS THE WORLD!" Danny speeds forward and tackles Skulker into the park surrounding the Fair Grounds with Valerie following them along with Dani who was stopped.
Dani was caught in a energy lasso caught her, with the other end being attached to a small cylinder held by Maddie who asks, "What is going on?"
Danny continues to attack Skulker actually damaging Skulker who did not have any technology to repair himself, until Valerie's bazooka was knocked out her hands and absorbed by Skulker who gained two shoulder mounted cannons. Dani returned with Maddie holding a pair of special Ecto-Rifles where she managed to shoot the two at Skulker. Dani blasted Skulker by speeding around him only to be suddenly slapped by Skulker and into a tree.
Dani did not move before Danny's eyes glowed neon green before he slammed into Skulker and punched him repeatedly before Skulker was between Valerie and Dani when she pulled the trigger on an Ecto-Sniper rifle. Skulker dodged the blast that was heading towards an unconscious Dani. Danny spots the path of the Ecto blast before speeding to her side and pushing her out the way and was clipped in the shoulder and forcing him out of his Ghost transformation as he fell to the ground and clutched his shoulder in pain, as Skulker was caught in a Fenton Thermos held by Jazz, while Maddie and Valerie was in shock before Dani woke up and sees Danny before shouting, "Danny!?" in a panic.
Two years later-Present-Stilwater-Saint's Row-Random Alley-Dawn
A black hair youth wrapped in a raggy green coat that was poorly repaired and covering most of his body, including his head as it was covered in a hood. The youth awakened when a shop door opens to reveal an old man dropping a bag of garbage into a dumpster before spotting the Youth before raising his arms and saying, "I don't have any money please do not rob me."
The Youth stood with a grunt before walking out the alley while the old man looked at him strangely. The Youth walked along the road with his hands in his pockets, his scuffed and worn shoes filled with holes and falling apart as he moves.
He ignores the three blue race cars that drove past before turning down a different street, past a street salesman selling watches that he could not afford. The teen continues to walk past a prostitute that shouted at the teen before the teen stops and sees three guys in yellow shouting about some blue graffiti before they start spraying with yellow paint. That was when three guys showed up and started a brawl that turned into a gun fight that escalated when a red car drove up to them before speaking with a Spanish accent, "Hector says 'Buenas Noches'," before opening fire.
The driver of the red car was shot as they started driving away and almost ran into the youth and the prostitute. The Youth got the prostitute out the way of the car before the Prostitute ditched the Youth as the final passenger of the Red car was killed by the last blue gang member before the blue man was killed by the yellow before he aimed at the Youth and saying, "Wrong Place, Wrong Time!"
The Youth closed his eyes before a gunshot was heard but he felt no pain. The Youth opened one eye to see an African American Male wearing a black with a purple undershirt, with gold medallions around his neck offering his hand to the Youth. Behind him is a white male with brown hair and goatee wearing a black shirt with a purple stripe along his torso, while holding a gun in his hand.
The African American asks, "You okay playa?" the Youth accepts the help to stand before his arm was pulled over the man's shoulder before he says, "If you want to make a difference, come meet us by the church in an hour."
The white man spoke, "Really Julius? You are recruiting now?"
"He owes us Troy," the now name Julius responded to the newly named Troy. Julius then turned to the Youth and says, "If you want to be part of something and make a difference, meet at the Church."
They left the Youth just outside and old condemned church while a series of guys and gals were seen wandering into the dirt filled graveyard next to the partially collapsed building. The Youth stared at the gathering before clutching his stomach in hunger and figured they might have some food.
The Youth reached the garden/graveyard and stood behind an Asian man with white frosted tips wearing purple glasses and a purple jacket while a detailed purple dragon tattoos. The Youth waited as Julius finished speaking with another African American kid with a sideways cap and denim jacket over a purple shirt before he walked over to the stairs leading up to the Church before he speaks, "Okay, Vice Kings, Rollers and the Carnalles are fighting for shit that ain't theirs, and I am sick of it. Starting today, we are taking back the Row!"
Everyone cheered while the Asian man in front of the Youth shouted, "Fuck Yeah!" he then turned around and asks, "Who the fuck is this guy?" indicating the Youth.
"It is okay Johnny, Troy and I helped him avoid a bullet, he owes us," Julius answered.
"Then he needs to be canonised," Johnny spoke before adding, "We all had to do it."
"Johnny is right," Troy added, "It is the rule."
Julius nods silently as the Youth is surrounded by several purple clad gangsters who cracked their knuckles. The first gangster charges towards the Youth, who stepped back towards a stone tombstone and then dodge a punch which caused the gangster to break his hand. The second and third gangsters charged at the Youth avoided them before they eventually punched each other in the face when the Youth suddenly tripped. Six more gangsters showed up to attack, the first swung his fist at the Youth's chin which apparently missed, causing the gangster to spin before punching the guy next to him in the crotch. The rest of the guys went to dog pile the Youth only for him to step out the way before they crashed into each other missing the Youth, whose hood fell down revealing long black hair and light blue eyes.
Everyone stared at the Youth before Troy said, "Shit, he didn't even hit them back."
Johnny nods before saying, "Damn, I doubt I could do that as smoothly."
Julius walked up to the Youth before saying, "Great work Playa, speak with Dex if you have any questions," indicating the one in the denim jacket, "Do you have a piece?" The Youth shakes his head in the negative. Julius turned to Troy and says, "Help the Playa out."
Troy nods before saying, "Sure Julius, come on kid," the Playa/Kid/Youth followed Troy as they casually walked out the fenced area of the church and walked half a block to reach a Gun store called 'Friendly Fire' where they went inside. Troy spoke, "Hey Murray, hook my friend up with his first piece."
There was three options:
A VICE 9 Beretta costing one hundred dollars
An NR4 Glock costing four hundred dollars
Finally a .44 magnum costing twelve hundred dollars.
Troy gave the Youth a thousand dollars and says, "Pick a piece, the VK's use the VICE 9 model, but cops use the NR4." The Youth selected the VICE 9 before Troy nods at the choice and says, "Let's take that piece and clear up the Row."
With the purchase of forty eight bullets the two went to the street and walked until they saw a group of yellow dressed guys walking through the street and shooting up a store that the Youth had slept behind the night before. One of the VKs took aim at an elderly owner and The Youth took aim and fired a single shot that flew through the air before it cut through the trigger guard of the VKs gun that removed said VKs finger. As the VK fell to his knees two more shots went through the air before hitting the wrists of the other two VKs' that forced them to the ground in pain.
Troy was stunned before he calms down and asks, "Where did you learn to shoot like that?"
The Youth was silent before speaking with a light tone, "My mom was a skilled marksman, no military training just lots of practice," the VKs are all screaming in pain, one clutching the bloody stump that was his finger while the other two were freaking out because they couldn't move their hands holding their guns. Danny walked over and took all their ammo and cash before following Troy to the next group.
Troy they found another group of VKs this case they were driving a car violently towards them. While Troy opened fire while the Youth only fired one shot, Troy's bullets hit the windshield of the car while the Youth's single shot hit the suspension of the wheel resulting in the car's front end collapsed and forced to turn left and into an abandoned building with the driver and front seat passenger to fly out the windshield. Troy spoke, "Seriously? What kind of guns did you mom teach you to shoot?"
"Very high calibre," the Youth answered.
Troy then asks the most prominent question as the Youth checked the pulses of the three VKs, "What are you doing? I mean there is no reason for them to be still living?"
"I am not comfortable killing," the Youth answered as he adjusts the hood of his coat.
Troy nods in acceptance before saying, "Come on, there was one more group in the area, once we sort them out we can go to 'Forgive N Forget' to take the heat off of us." They ran a block and found the last group where if Troy had actually checked would have learnt that all four of the last group lost the little toe on their left foot. Troy then asks, "Can you drive?" The Youth looked at Troy before raising a hand shaking in a yes/no gesture. "Then you can learn to drive now," they steal a VKs car and proceeded to bunny hop along the road as Troy gave the Youth a crash course in driving. When the car was moving properly Troy asks, "So how long have you been living in the row?"
The Youth frowns before asking, "What is the date?"
"August," Troy answered.
"Two years," the Youth answered.
"Then why haven't I seen you around?" Troy asks.
"I spend my time in alleys and walking around not being noticed," the Youth states simply as they reach the high way before Troy gestured to the Youth to drive into a drive through like building, where the Youth had to hand over five hundred dollars to get out of trouble, leaving the Youth with about six hundred dollars.
Troy then says, "Let's head to 'Freckly Bitches' I am jonesing for a Fun bag," that was when he hears the youth's stomach growl before he says, "I will buy you a burger." They made a U-turn and drove along the road to a burger joint with a red headed mascot farm girl wearing a blue dress with other sized breasts. The Youth parked their 'stolen' car and proceeded to walk up to the counter and Troy ordered to meals before they waited to the side and Troy asks, "So, you got a name, or do I continue calling you kid?"
"Danny," the Youth answered before saying, "If you feel like it, just call me Danny."
Troy nods before saying, "Why did you join up?" as they accepted their food.
"Honestly I was just hungry," Danny answered as they took a seat.
Troy nods again as he eats some fries before asking, "So what brought you to Stilwater?"
Danny was silent before saying, "Necessity," and then focuses on eating his food.
Troy looked at Danny with suspicion as he continues to eat his meal before he got a phone call. Troy answered, "Yeah, We will get right to it Julius," Troy stands and says, "Come on, Dex's crew spotted a Los Conarles crew setting up shop in an abandoned store in the Row, I'll give you a hand with it."
Danny nods and the two walk over to the VK car that they stole before Troy directed Danny on where to drive. The reach an abandoned store before getting out the car and Danny asks, "So what are we doing exactly?"
"Clearing them out," Troy answered before adding, "Preferably permanently."
"You okay if I just disable them?" Danny questioned slightly uncomfortable.
"Yeah, we can probably get info on the Los Carnarles with those we catch alive," Troy responded before he kicked the door down and shot the first Carnale in the face. Danny frowns at this before he sees two come in from the left and fires a single shot that knocked the guns out of their hands and bouced into a third person's foot causing them to collapse in pain while the first two decide to run without their guns. Danny and Troy manage to take down the remaining Canarles, until the leader of the Outpost tried to make a run for it. The Carnale leader got into a red flat bed and reversed towards Troy, who dodge the car before the Car got to close. Danny stayed still as he fired a single bullet under the car before stepping out the way, as the car continued to reverse without stopping and the embedding it into a brick wall while the car slowly slowed down as Danny had shot the break line. Troy walked over to the Carnale leader before punching him in the face and calling his crew. Troy then says to Danny, "Great job, I will tell Julius what you did here." Danny nods before Troy says, "I will meet you back at the Church once my crew arrives and clears out the Los Carnales," Danny nods before he walks away from the Abandoned alcohol store.
Danny walks through the streets when he sees a VK car speeding towards him with a wall opposite. Danny remained calm as the car reached him before he suddenly phased through the vehicle resulting in the VK crashing violently while Danny continued to walk away, never noticing the VKs who had been watching and started the rumours of Danny being untouchable.
Danny continued walking as the VKs helped out their friends. Danny walked until he reached some flood drains and appeared to walk through a hole in the fence before walking down the slope before reaching a collapsed pipe. Danny looked back and forth before phasing past the stone, dirt, trash and other assorted materials that is normally found in sewer pipes. Danny phased through several metres of the blockage before reaching a large space that was filled with car parts, and other high-tech equipment. Danny walked up to a cylinder before tapping it with a glowing green finger resulting in the dark room getting some light. Danny sets a timer to the side for two hours before he returns to working on a strangely shaped car without any coverings. Danny picked up a circuit board and lightly zapped it with some green sparks before inserting the chip into the vehicles motherboard before closing the case and then finding so sheets of metal that he struggled to bend into shape before giving up. Danny looked at the time and sighs, he always was good at the detailed stuff but not the big labour intensive work, it had taken him ten minutes for the circuit board and what little work he did to the bodywork. Danny stands before walking out the way he came in and started wandering around the Row until he reached the Church as Julius and Troy came out and spot him.
Julius speaks up, "Where have you been Playa, there is a gang war going on at the warehouses near the docks, lets move."
Danny, Troy and Julius got in the stolen VK car Danny and Troy stole earlier before heading towards the docks, Troy says on the way, "We would have called you but I forgot to get your cell number."
"Don't have one," Danny answered truthfully.
Julius frowns before saying, "Don't worry Playa, once we deal with the Gang Bangers we can sort you out a place to rest your head, and a cell to call for help. Troy said you are a crack shot, show me what you got."
They reach the warehouses by the river and slowly walk through with six saints following. When Danny spots a VK's exposed foot, that VK lost a toe, his scream of pain turned into a distraction as the Saints walked through the area. Every enemy gang member Danny shot they lost a toe or a finger and by the end of it Danny disabled half the total number of all three gangs before they left the area. Those who survived would spread even more rumours of Danny, of how he was shot but didn't feel a thing.
Troy then notices Julius about to put a VK out of his misery of losing both his pointing fingers. Troy stops him and says, "Come on Julius, consider this guy retired."
With that Danny, Troy and Julius walked to their stolen car with Danny driving and returned to the Church. Julius then asks Danny, "So Playa, why did you not kill anyone?"
Danny simply says, "Never killed anyone before. Not really wanting that on my hands."
Julius nods before saying, "With how you shoot you should be good," Julius then pulls out his phone and makes a call, "Dex, need you to look into a place for the Playa and a Phone," there was a pause before he says, "Thanks Dex," and hangs up. Julius then says to Danny, "Look Playa, Dex will hook you up with a place and a phone in a couple hours. So when we get to the Church hangout there. Those VKs who tried to run you down are still gunning for you so I would for you to at least stay safe until then."
Danny nods as they reach the church to see Johnny listening to a CD player while sitting on the steps tapping his foot to the music. Troy looks at this and decides to give Danny a proper introduction, "Johnny Gat, one of our best fighters, with guns, knives and his fists. Oh and just a heads up, he is the only Saint allowed to own any provocative images of the famous singer, 'Aisha' for personal reasons."
Johnny notices Julius, Troy and Danny before standing while removing his headphones before saying, "Hey Julius, got told you were planning to kill some of the other gangs but when I got here you already left with Troy and the new kid."
"He did good," Julius says, "He did not kill anyone though."
Johnny scratched his chin in thought before asking, "Then what did he do?"
"He shot of fingers and many in the left foot," Troy answered while Johnny nodded.
"Then that is going to cost all of the other Gangs a pretty peny," Johnny acknowledged much to Julius' surprise before he added, "Hell, those who weren't arrested would have to pay big money to get patched up especially with the cost of bribing the police to let them out."
Troy frowns before Dex speaks, "Not to mention the Man power taken away from each gang. Easier to replace a dead body then one still living."
Troy clears his throat before saying, "Johnny and Dex, meet Danny a crack shot teen living on the street," Danny simply waved at the two lazily before Troy asks Dex, "You found a place for the kid?"
Dex smirks before saying, "There is three possible places," he pulls out a map and says, "There is an apartment block with some space for other members of the crew," pointing a block away from the Church, "then we have an abandoned bar, with a basement that connects to a sewer entrance that has been blocked off since the quake five years ago near the drains," that got Danny's attention as Dex added, "small garage and will need a bit of clearing. Then finally we have the a rundown building just inside VK turf."
Danny looked at the map before saying, "I can take the bar, sleep in the basement, while the Saints can turn it into a hangout for the crew," everyone looked at Danny like he grew a second head 'again' before Johnny smirks.
"I like this kid, he has an eye for the future," Johnny jokes before adding, "Plus it will give the saints a nice spot to meet and greet."
Julius nods before saying, "Very well, Playa, you get your bar, but any upgrades will come out of your pocket or any donations that the other Saints can offer." Danny nods as he calculates where his 'new' bar will be located compared to hole in the ground.
Once that was done, Dex handed Danny a flip phone and says, "Here it already has, Julius, Troy and Johnnys' phone numbers. If you need mine, I will give it to you until then."
Danny accepts the phone before saying, "Thank you," Dex shrugs it off before Danny asks, "Anyone know how to run a bar?" that got everyone to stumble a bit as they walked into the Church.
Julius walked up to the platform and speaks to the formed crew of saints, "Okay everyone we have locked down the Row, now we need to take the fight to them," he then points to Dex, "Dex handle the Carnales, ever since they joined up with the Columbians, they act like they own the whole town."
Dex simply says, "Got it."
"Troy the VICE KINGS," Julius states.
"No way," Troy says.
"The fuck you say?" Julius questions.
"Anyone but them," Troy states.
Johnny Gat steps forward and says, "Fuck that, I will handle the VKs."
Julius says, "It is not that easy Johnny."
"Bullets still kill people," Johnny countered.
"Watch your boy," Julius states to Dex.
Dex nods while Johnny shouts, "I don't need a baby sitter Julius."
Julius looks to Dex and says with a harder tone, "Watch your boy," Dex nods in understanding.
Troy then asks, "So who has the Rollerz?"
"I do," came the voice a Chinese woman wearing a black short top that brings attention to her chest, and blue tracksuit pants. Her black hair was tied up with two large golden needles.
Johnny looks at her strangely before asking, "Why the fuck are you wearing Blue, Lin?"
Julius answered, "I asked Lin to hook up with the Rollerz, we have no idea what their deal and goals are so Lin is going to find out."
One Saint walked up to her and commented about Lin being a whore only to get the crap beaten out of him until Lin asked if anyone else had a comment and received some advice from Johnny, "When you punch don't throw out your shoulder so much," and was told to 'shut up' by Lin.
"Everyone," Julius speaks up, "Go to these three if you need something to do. Also if there is anyone with some experience working in a bar, our newest member is organising a safe house where we can meet up, to meet with fellow saints and drinking in safety. If you want to help out we will organise a way to make some donations."
Johnny smirks before asking Danny, "Is there going to be stripper poles?"
Danny just shrugs before saying, "I will have to have a look at the place first."
Lin smirks before saying, "Sell some tea, and I will add a couple bucks."
Dex frowns before saying, "Well with the meeting over, let's go have a look." Danny and Dex walked outside to see to a fancy looking purple convertible with a white and blue car parked next to it. Dex says, "That is Lin's ride, custom work she did herself ever need help modifying your ride. Get in, I am driving," indicating the purple convertible that as Lin reached her car. Dex drove forward before heading towards the drains and driving past the alley that Danny walked down and then finding an old Abandoned Bar that was damaged due to a gun fight a couple years back. Dex then says, "Well we got this place cheap but it is going to take some work. I can make some calls get you a deal."
Danny nods before Lin arrives in her car and looks at the Bar before saying, "Good luck with this place, probably be cheaper to buy an actual bar," she taunts before driving away at high speeds her blue under glow leaving trails.
Dex shakes his head before saying, "Don't mind her, she is a bitch," he states as a fact before focusing on the Bar as they break the door down to open it to reveal barrels filled with ash, and wrecked furniture.
Danny walked up to the bar counter and swiped up some dust before saying, "Least the Bar is intact," Danny looked around before saying, "Come back tomorrow I should have this all cleaned by then."
Dex frowns before saying, "You want me to get some of the crew to help?" Danny shakes his head in the negative before Dex says, "Well anyway, tomorrow afternoon head to the Church and speak with Gat, the crew has a lot of information on the Vice Kings. We should have something for you to do when you get there," Dex walked out the bar leaving Danny to his own devices, which was Danny's fist glowing green before he started destroying the trash and wrecked furniture. Within ten minutes all the big pieces of trash in the main room was atomised before he walks over to the door that leads to the basement, he melted the lock before heading down finding that the room was filled with filled bottles of beer. Danny looks at the labels before smirking and finding a large crate that he placed the bottles in before he blew some cold blue air over them before they started to cool along with several dozen ice cubes landing inside.
Danny let the bottles cool before finding the maintenance door to the flood tunnels before breaking the lock before finding a manual service elevator. Danny phased his head through the floor along with one hand and created a green light to look down the shaft and find that it was half filled with trash. Danny removed himself before walking out the elevator and proceeding to head back up stairs before heading to the garage out back to see it looked with a heavy duty lock that he melted allowing him into a garage that was filled with car parts, wheels and spare furniture for the bar. Danny had one thought, "Didn't anyone check this place."
Danny shakes his head as he takes a seat before heading to the only remaining booth that was still intact and dropped his head and rugged himself in his coat before falling asleep for the night.
The Row-The next morning-Saints 'Unnamed' bar-Outside
After a loud knocking, Danny stepped over to the door and aloud Dex into the Bar where he was shocked to see that it was cleaned out. Once Dex recovered he asks, "Did you get some of the boys to help clean up?" Danny shook his head as Dex continued by asking, "So find anything interesting?"
Danny shrugs before saying, "some replacement furniture, some car parts and about a three thousand bottles of beer, I have a couple hundred cooling in the basement."
Dex froze before asking, "Seriously? we should have checked this place sooner," he shakes his head before saying, "Well looking at this some paint and some new flooring," he looks at a couple booths before saying, "I can get some of the crew working on fixing this place up."
Danny nods while saying, "Thanks," Dex looks around before Danny says, "I looked into the maintenance door, completely filled with concrete.
Dex nods in acceptance before saying, "How is the plumbing?" Danny shrugs before Dex opens the door to the men's room to find all the toilets smashed, while the urinals are all intact. They move over to the women's room and see that about half of them needed to be replaced. Dex then asks, "Are you sure you want to do this? It is a lot for a kid to deal with."
Danny frowns before saying, "I will be fine, but could you get a couple guys to watch the place?"
Dex nods before saying, "Yeah," he pulls out a piece of Paper and says, "Head to this address. A colleague of the Saints, Tobius is looking to replace his partner while making deliveries," he hands Danny a note before saying, "Just watch his back as he makes some deliveries and you should get paid and he said he will drop you off at the church." Danny nods before heading out while Dex leaned on the bar before saying, "Yeah, this place has potential," and waited for the some guys to come by to examine the place.
Tobias' Scrap Yard-half hour later-Just outside the Row.
Danny walked into a scrap yard filled with wrecked cars before seeing a mobile home when a man came running out and trips down a set of steps before he ran towards Danny while a man with red dreadlocks and wearing camouflage green trousers chasing the first man with a gun before a shot was fired by the second man into the first knocking him to the ground.
The red dreadlocked man shouts, "You don't skim from the top!" before shooting into the man on the ground repeatedly. He then looks at Danny and says, "Hello, sorry about this bad impression but Billy here decided to skim off the top of the profit before I could count it and now," he fires another shot into Billy before saying, "He has taken an early retirement."
Danny nods before asking, "So what exactly am I here for? You are Tobias right?"
Tobias nods before saying, "Look all you have to do is keep an eye on my back as I make deliveries. Some people don't like my selling on their 'turf.' Which is strange considering I am selling Weed and not the same stuff my competition is selling."
Danny asks, "Your stuff doesn't kill anyone right?"
Tobias frowns before stating, "I sell quality stuff, meaning no dangerous chemicals all natural. The only danger my stuff can cause, is if they use my shit before handling something that they need to focus," Tobias then looks at Danny before saying, "And no, I do not go into my product with the exception of my personal stash for the week end." Danny nods before being led to a flowerily design paint style. Tobias took the Driver's seat while Danny took the Passenger seat. Tobias simply says, "Well, I have to make ten drops today, fortunately a couple of them are at the same spot so we won't have to make too many unneeded stops." They drove through Canarle's turf where a truck quickly chases them along the road when Tobias says, "That is your queue."
Danny frowns before looking out the passenger side window to see the Canarle car, Danny aimed with his pistol before firing. The bullet lodged into the steering column of the car resulting in the Carnales missing the next turn and crashing into a police car that started chasing Tobias' van.
Tobias looked in his mirror and says, "Damn, nice shot," they reach the first place to meet with Tobias' buyers. Tobias stepped out of the van while Danny stepped out and waited for Tobias to deal with three guys. When Tobias was returning to the Van another Carnale's car arrived only for Danny to shoot a tire out and caused the car to crash into a curb launching the Driver and Passenger out the wind shield alive, while the one in the back slammed his head into the dash of the car. Tobias gets in his Van with Danny and asks, "Where you part of a secret government project or something."
Danny tensed before saying, "No, just a lot of practice. How many more deliveries?"
"Two more," Tobias answered before they drove under a bridge to reach an abandoned construction area. Danny leaned on the side of the Van as Tobias meets with four of his buyers before coming back to the Van. Tobias frowns before saying, "That is strange the Canarles are normally a bit quicker than this."
Danny frowned until they see a Carnale road block ahead with a fire hydrant next to them where if it was on would hit the back of the Canarle's car. Danny drew his pistol before aiming at the hydrant and the barrel gaining a slight green glow that was absorbed by the bullet that gained said glow before Danny fired. The bullet sped forward like a tracer before the bullet impacted the Hydrant, where it shook violently before bursting open and knocking all the Carnales down as Tobias turned down a side alley to get past the road block that successfully stopped a group of Police cars trying to bust them.
Tobias spoke, "That was lucky. That fire hydrant breaking like that," Danny nods that the comment before they parked outside a person's suburban home they waited at the curb before an elderly woman quickly walked over with two paper bags and Tobias says, "Hey misses Foreman."
Misses Foreman smiles and says, "Hello Tobias I had a little extra after meeting with the girls from the last batch and thought you may like to enjoy some special brownies."
"Thank you Misses Foreman," Tobias accepts the gift before handing her another bag of weed and accepts the payment before saying, "Say hello to the girls for me."
Misses Foreman smiles before saying, "I will tell them," she then waves as Tobias waved goodbye as they drove away.
Tobias opens the gift that Misses Foreman gave him and smells one of the brownies before placing it back into the bag and handing it to Danny before saying, "You can have half after we are back to the yard." Danny nods before leaning back in his seat as they drove past a large Carnale and VK crash where the two groups were fighting violently. Tobias sees this and says, "Talk about luck," Tobias turns behind a line of stores a couple blocks away from the fight before suddenly stopping seeing his last couple buyers were talking like buddies with a police officers. Tobias stops before reversing back onto the road before driving away. Tobias says, "Looks like we are finishing up earlier then I was expecting. Damn ass holes was probably planning to sell us out to the cops for a cash prize from the Carnales or the Cops." Danny nods in silence before Tobias adds, "Let's get back to the Yard. Then I can give you your cut. Half the Brownies can be a bonus." The drove all the way back past several of the crashed and abandoned Carnale cars before reaching Tobias' Junkyard. Tobias parks his van before the two left the Van, with Danny following Tobias into the RV leaning onto a brick wall.
Once inside the RV, Danny sees a large hole leading into the brick building behind it to see a woman lovingly caring for a series of plants that will become Tobias' product. Tobias walked up behind the woman and hugs her from behind before kissing her cheek. The woman has brown hair, and is wearing what could be considered regular house wife clothes in the seventies. The woman says, "Tobias, how was your deliveries?"
"They went well until the last one," Tobias states before adding, "The last group tried to sell me out to the cops. Though Misses Foreman made us some Special Brownies," the woman smiles before noticing Danny. Tobias realises what he needed to say, "This is the misses, and this is Danny, he took over Billy's job today. Watched my back."
The woman smiles and shakes hands with Danny and says, "Hello I am Laura, Tobias' wife well at least after the wedding," she flashed the string ring.
Danny nods before saying, "Congratulations," Danny appeared impatient before saying, "Not to be insulting, but perhaps we should hurry this up, so that I can leave the two of you alone."
Tobias looks at Danny confused before realising Danny's point and says, "Yeah, let's get you your money," he spanks Laura's rear before leading Danny towards the back room and says, "Well we only had to deal with seven of my buyers, so Billy's cut was ten percent and before you ask, Laura and myself each get thirty percent while the rest is used to finance the farm. Now as each payment was ten grand each, and we made seven deliveries," he pulls out a calculator before saying, "Plus the bonus of ensuring the Van was intact and the lack of injury," he opened a safe under his desk and hands Danny fifteen thousand dollars before saying, "Fifteen Gs and half of misses Foreman's Special Brownies," he took half the brownies out of the bag that Misses Foreman gifted them before placing the fifteen grand into the bag and says, "It was a pleasure doing business with you."
Danny accepts the bag before saying, "I am fixing up a bar in the Row, you should come by for a drink some time."
"Not into drinking alcohol my friend," Tobias states before saying, "I am considered to be a light weight," Danny nods at that before leaving, but not quick enough to not hear Tobias and Laura getting intimate. Danny walked back to the Row and shortly he sees a VK's car stop and grab a black girl off the street. (Sorry if I appear racist but there is going to be a lot of African Americans in this story.) The girl screamed as she was pulled into the car and Danny was compelled to follow. Danny turned invisible and phased into the back seat before it could drive away. Danny silently placed a seat belt on while the Girl taken hostage was putting her belt on at gunpoint, which helped disguise the 'click' of the belts.
After ten minutes of driving, the VK got out the car and walked around to pull the girl out. Danny stepped out behind them when his phone went off. Danny used the butt of his gun to knock the guy out before answering his phone to here Johnny say, "Playa where are you? A girl was just taken off the street by VKs and need you to go get them."
Danny frowns before saying, "Well," he looks up at the warehouse he was at before saying, "I am currently at the Row Cannery, I think I accidently followed the guy stealing the girl?"
"What is her name?" Johnny asks. Danny asks the girl her name and says it to Johnny and got a simple response, "You are a badass, and that is coming from me. I am on my way with some guys to pick her and any other girl up."
Danny frowns before saying, "I am going in ahead," he hangs up as Johnny was shouting to wait. Danny looked at the girl and led her to the side where she would be hidden before he went into the Cannery. Danny silently walked into the basement where he sees a group of VKs playing cards. Danny notices the only light in the room is from old lightbulbs connected to a switch right next to him, with a baseball bat leaning under it. Danny flips the switch that made the room completely dark before Danny grabbed the Baseball bat before walking over to VKs and swung. Danny silently took most of the VKs out until he reached the last two who freaked before accidently shooting each other. Danny turned the light back on as he walked over to the locked door in the back.
He sees the large padlock before one of the girls inside was looking out the peep hole and sees Danny before saying, "The guy who has the key went to Tee'N'Ay."
Danny shakes his head before saying, "Don't need it." Danny's hand glowed blue over the lock before creating a key for him to open the lock with. He pockets the lock and new key before opening the door for the girls before leading them past the unconscious and dead VKs until they reached outside to see Johnny and Dex surrounded by Saints with a couple cars and large trucks. Danny waves to the girl from before who runs over and hugs him quickly before both blushed at the contact and separated.
Johnny sees all the girls before saying, "Aisha was worried about," to the girl before he turns to Danny and says, "Good work lets head to the Church. Aisha should be there," 'Aisha's' sister sighs in relief. She gets in Johnny's car before driving to the Church while Danny got a ride with the Saints who were driving the girls back to the Church.
An hour later-Third Streets Saints Church
Danny sleeps soundly on a church bench as the Saints were working on the different speaking with people before heading off towards their assigned tasks. Danny slept peacefully before Johnny Gat stepped up to him before slapping Danny's head while saying, "Danny, I would like you to meet the girl that you 'apparently' helped," he points to a Black girl Johnny's age, wearing a black miniskirt, white boots, purple tank top under a small sports jacket, large gold hoop earrings, a strange necklace and finally a purple cap that holds her black hair. Johnny spoke gesturing to the girl, "This is Saints Row's claim to fame, the great Aisha," he finishes sarcastically.
Danny frowns before asking, "Aisha who?"
Johnny and Aisha frown before Johnny says, "Right homeless until last night," Johnny then says to Aisha, "This is Danny, the crack shot kid, who hasn't directly killed anyone and is as badass as me," Aisha's eyes widened before Johnny continues, "And the guy I sent to save your sister."
Aisha growls and says, "Johnny I called you I was expecting you to save her. Not pawn the job onto someone else."
Danny frowns before asking Johnny, "How many people did you call to ask to find the girls, for you to save?"
"You were the first," Johnny answered instantly.
"Where you discovered that I already found Aisha's sister and the other girls?" Danny questions before adding, "Before you and several other Saints to come and collect us and bring us to the Church in Safety," Danny states before asking Aisha, "What exactly did you expect Johnny to do?"
"He is a gun toting lunatic that shots first and ask questions later," Aisha answers.
"So you expected Johnny to go kill the VKs responsible who could have moved the girls to where he would not have been able to find resulting in your sister being lost to you?" Danny questioned before saying, "But instead Johnny called his fellow Saints to find you sister first, before he kills a lot of people. Wouldn't that have given you a better result than mindless violence?"
Aisha frowns in thought before Johnny glares at Danny and says, "Don't talk to her like that," his voice was very threatening but Danny wasn't fazed.
Aisha placed a hand between Johnny and Danny, kissing Johnny's cheek and whispering in his ear, "Be nice Johnny he was just helping you," she turned to Danny and says, "Thank you."
Danny just simply shrugs in acceptance before Johnny says, "We should take this to my office," he gestured his arm towards the side of the church that he had technically taken over to take down the Vice Kings. Johnny sits behind a desk and says, "We should get down to business. In the next hour Aisha has a recording session with King Records, and we are going to kill her," he says without a sense of humour while Danny was shocked.
"Not literally," Aisha states easing Danny of his worries before Aisha adds, "Look King Records are a 'legal' business belonging to Benjamin King, the 'illegal' part is that when you are in, you are locked in making less than twenty percent, unless you are actually making money for them, but if you want to leave the company, it is in a body bag."
Danny frowns before asking, "So how much are you actually making if the VKs are small changing you?"
"Fortunately I can accept interviews and paid photo shots separately from them but the end of my current contract is coming up," Aisha says before adding, "Unfortunately if I don't sigh with them again, I will 'mysteriously disappear' which has happened several times. The biggest problem though is the 'Boss' of the company, all the other female singers as part of their contracts need to perform sexual favours for Warren or end up on the street with a new face."
Johnny was gripping his fist before grabbing his phone and makes a quick call. When the other end answers the phone Johnny says, "Look you know that plan I was telling you earlier, double the amount to be added to the car," he hangs up before saying, "Look Danny, I need you to drive Aisha to her recording session, but on the way you are going to head to this address," he hand Danny a slip of paper before he continues, "Once the car is loaded head to King Records then make yourself scarious. Aisha will go inside and make sure that she is seen enough for Aisha to be assumed 'dead' in the explosion. Aisha will be running out the back of the building where I will pick her up in an alley then to keep her safe we will stash you at Danny's Bar, in the rooms above." Danny was about to ask about that when Johnny says, "Dex and I looked over your deed for the bar and found that the apartments above also belong to you. Meaning get this done, I will put some cash into the Bar and the place."
Danny nods before saying, "Do you mind holding onto this," Danny hands Johnny the bag of cash and Brownies, "I will want this back, but if you want a brownie just understand it is a 'special' brownie from one of Tobias' customers."
Johnny frowns before saying, "Well there goes my appetite," Johnny frowns before saying, "Danny, make sure that Aisha is safe all the way to the studio and Esha stay safe," he nods to Aisha before the she and Danny walked out the church to find a black Cadillac with the license plate number, G S GRL.
Aisha simply says, "You drive, I am not the best behind the wheel and with what Johnny has planned, I tend to create dents." Danny nods before getting in the driver's seat as Aisha gets in the passenger seat. Danny drove the car to the address in silence which Aisha speaks when they were within sight of the mechanics with a sigh above that says 'Rim Jobs' when Aisha speaks again, "You don't talk much do you?"
"I am sorry," Danny starts before concluding, "It is just that I am not comfortable talking to people. I was trying to stay hidden."
"So you are a run away?" Aisha asked as they let the Mechanics fill the trunk with enough explosives to destroy a block of buildings.
"Not by choice," Danny spoke.
The mechanic closed the trunk before walking up to the Driver's side window and says, "Look this shit is unstable, so don't drive like a lunatic and you should be fine," the mechanic hands Danny a detonator before saying, "Turn the key and then press each of the three buttons in sequence. It is just the numbers on each button in order."
Danny looks at the detonator before handing it to Aisha, "Your life that is 'ending,' it might as well be you who does it."
Aisha looked at him and asks as he drives away from the mechanics, "Why are you with the Saints if you don't intend to kill anyone?"
Danny frowns before saying, "I don't know. I just don't know," that was when Danny swerved out the way of a black van with a crazy stalker tried to ram them. Danny avoided the van before seeing the path leading to King Records was blocked by a oil truck, causing Danny to frown before Danny turned away as the Van tried to hit them from behind. Danny drove quickly before turning around and sped towards the oil truck. Aisha screamed as they closed into the truck, she closes her eyes in panic before Danny's body shifted violently on the spot before the entire car and Aisha appeared to warp as the reached the Oil Truck only to phase through without injury. Danny kept driving as the entire vehicle returned to normal as Danny continues to drive while behind them the Van crashed into the oil truck causing it to explode. Aisha suddenly asks, "Are we dead?"
Danny simply says, "Nope," Aisha opened her eyes to see everything was okay as they drove toward Kingdom Come Records. Aisha frowns before saying, "I think that was this weird guy that had been trying to date me for the last few dozen times. All during the time that I was working with King Records, with Warren showing up to 'save the damsel in distress.' Which I always suspected was planned."
Danny frowns before asking, "Does this Warren find you creepily attractive or does he look at you like property?"
Aisha frowns before saying, "Yeah, I have caught him at a couple photo shoots and organised my Music Videos."
Danny frowns before saying, "He had probably extorted and manipulated the guy," they reached outside Kingdom Come Records and Danny says, "You go ahead I will be out the car by the time that you detonate."
Aisha rushed inside while Danny made himself invisible before leaving the car and walking away quickly. Danny was three blocks away when the explosion went off and Danny saw Johnny and Aisha in Gat's car as fast as he could. Danny continued to walk invisible until he reached the Alley behind 'his' bar before becoming visible and walking to the door past the a small group of Saints. Danny entered the bar to see Johnny and Aisha sitting at the bar talking. Danny hears Johnny say, "Look Eshe, I get it the place is a dump, but look at it this way, with all the Saints spending time here you will have two places where you won't have to hide."
Aisha simply asks, "So that Danny owns this place?"
Danny makes his presence know, "Yeah, it works for me," Danny quickly went to the basement before grabbing a couple chilled beers and returns giving the two drinks to Johnny and Aisha. Danny then says, "Found a couple large crates with beer and have been chilling them over night."
Johnny opened the bottle with the palm of his hand and takes a deep sip before saying, "Good stuff." He opened Aisha's before handing Danny his money and brownies as he says, "I have organised some of my boys to come round and help with set up. Which reminds me, Aisha, I had a bunch of my guys to break into your apartment and ransack the place before the VKs can touch your stuff. We should have a look at the apartments."
"What about my sister she was living with me?" Aisha questions.
"How did you think they were going to get in?" Johnny countered before saying, "Plus once we pick a room for you I will make a call for some stuff you may want?" Aisha kisses Johnny's cheek before walking with a sway to her hips before Johnny says, "The guys are also bringing some stuff to fix up the bar. Some paint and stuff, but before all that do you have a name for this place yet?"
Danny put some thought in that before asking, "How about the 'Saintly Phantom'?"
"Sure, it is your bar," Johnny states before saying, "I am going to help Aisha, Dex and that should be around soon."
Danny nods before leaning back on the bar in thought before becoming curious before opening the bag and taking a Brownie and after going to the only Booth and eating the special treat. Danny leans back as he stares at a wall covered in many different graffiti letters and shapes. To Danny all the shapes and colours started to shift lightly and but not enough to be disorienting. When Dex arrived and asks, "What is up with you?"
"Special Brownies," Danny answered while looking at Dex lightly before Danny says, "Welcome to the Saintly Phantom," Danny then frowns before asking, "How difficult is it to get purple leather cushions for these Booths? Also black, white and purple colour scheme and a flat screen tv to play videogames?"
Dex shakes his head before saying, "It should be simple, this place should be up and running in a week," Dex states before saying, "Look this is probably a bad time but I was wondering if you could do something for me," he pulled out a picture of a Spanish woman wearing a tight black dress with a red flower before he says, "Spend a week watching this lady. A friend of mine works in a hair dresser and clearly you are a man that can get away with it. This file is on this lady, get any information you can and write it in this. So be at this address tomorrow at two o'clock, follow her around until she heads home, we get that address it will make it easy to get information on Los Carnales." Danny gave Dex a thumbs up before he leaned back in his booth before appearing to take a nap.
