Author Notes: This is a sequel to the first Yugioh/Danny Phantom crossover story I did called "Ghostly Secrets." I claim no rights or anything associated with these two series but the idea for the story is completely my own. If you haven't read the first story I suggest that you do so as this picks up right after the first one ended. A special thanks to fallingHikari on fanfiction.net for their help in creating an OC villian for this story.  Please leave me your comments and reviews telling me what you think.  Thanks!

Seven: Clockwork’s warning

The ghost of time floated before the group in his young child form.  Danny simply held out his hand to tell both Merik and Bakura to stand down.  Both Danny and Atemu knew that with Clockwork being here, the ghost didn’t have good news for them.

“Phantom…… Pharaoh…… Sorry for the rude interruption but, I wish I could give you some good news.” stated Clockwork.

“Just spit it out Clockwork.” replied Danny.  Clockwork nodded his head as he said nothing to the two as he snapped his fingers transporting both Danny and Atemu into the ghost zone where Clockwork lived.  The Fenton Thermos that held Dan Phantom (Danny’s evil future self) still laid sealed causing Danny to breathe a sigh of relief thinking that he may have to battle himself once again.  Clockwork’s form shifted to his oldest form of an old man.

“I assume that you both remember Regeanna and what had happened back five thousand years ago.” stated Clockwork.

“Let me guess, you had something to do with unlocking our past memories pertaining to Regeanna.” stated Atemu.  Clockwork simply nodded his head yes.

“I am sorry about that but considering what I have foreseen about the future, I had to do something to help.  Unlocking your memories was the most logical choice.  The outlook for the future is far worse than the one I had shown you about Sekhmet.” replied Clockwork.  A shutter ran through both Yugi’s and Danny’s body as Clockwork waved his time staff before the viewing mirror to show the three teens the future that he had seen.

The ghost zone and the human world had collided as they were both destroyed beyond any recognition.  No trace could be seen of humanity as whatever ghosts and/or spirits that remained, Regeanna controlled them like slaves.  Danny in his ghost form and Atemu in his spirit form where just a few of the ghosts that Regeanna controlled.  Both Danny’s and Atemu’s face paled considerably. 

“No matter how many times I view the future, it remains the same.  Never changing.  Already the draconic sorcerer is moving to strike.  He has assembled a ghost army to attack the both of you during this tournament.”

*Why am I not surprised?  I told you Atemu that something like this could happen.* Yugi stated mentally.

“Honestly, I wish I could give you better news but it seems that Regeanna will not be stopped as easily as Zorc and/or Sekhmet.  Also as you have experienced, the forms that you have all gained because of Sekhmet are still with you.” stated Clockwork.  “But I must warn you that the darkness that lies within you Atemu will become stronger when you face against Regeanna.  He will use this against you in order to turn you against the very people that you seek to protect.  Phantom because of you being a half ghost, he will try to manipulate you and seek to control you.  Please be careful both of you.  Yugi you may be the only one who can stop them.  Regeanna is far stronger and more powerful than anyone you have ever faced against.” stated Clockwork as he shifted to his teenage form.

“Don’t worry Clockwork.  Hopefully things will work out for the best.” stated Danny.

“I hope that you are right Danny.” stated Clockwork.

“Thanks for the warning Clockwork.” replied Atemu.

“Any time pharaoh.” stated Clockwork as he snapped his fingers sending both Atemu and Danny back to Japan.
