True Family

Chapter 12

"This meeting has commenced! Please be sure you are in your designated seat so that we may begin!"

Phantom looked around the busy auditorium and watched as all the seats were becoming filled as everyone found their designated seat, which was apparently unheard of.

'That means that this is serious. Pariah and Dan have become such a problem that even the top three Observants are present. Heck, even Frostbite of all people is present, and even that's unheard of.'

Someone gently grabbed Phantom's hand and he turned to see a tense Princess Dorathea with a look of worry and concern on her face. She was silently asking him, 'Are you alright?' In which he looked towards the 'audience' with a concerned look as well, 'I don't know'.

"ORDER, ORDER!"

The room quieted down slowly and the meeting officially began.

"Welcome. I know we speak for everyone when we say that it is shocking to have a full house present today. But rest assured, it is necessary. We, the Observers, have called this meeting due to the recent events both inside, and outside, of the Infinite Realms. Major cities, trade posts, and markets have been destroyed and many ghosts have gone homeless, or have even faded as of recent."

Harsh murmurs and whispers broke out but were quickly hushed by the other Observants.

"We are aware this information is frightening, however, it is our duty to inform you of what is going on within the Infinite Realms. Thus, the reason for this meeting. We must find a way to stop the menaces known as Dan Phantom and Pariah Dark from continuing their onslaught through the Ghost Zone. That is why we have not only summoned Frostbite of the FarFrozen but Princess Dorathea of Aargon, Clockwork the Keeper of Time, Pandora of the Greek Acropolis and lastly, Sir Daniel Phantom of the Living World, Savior of the Ghost Zone and heir to the throne."

As the Observants called out their names, each one entered the room and sat in the front on either side of the Observants. The room was like an auditorium, however, the front of the room looked more like a Court Room with eight chairs/desks facing the audience. The Observants sat in the middle, Frostbite, Pandora, and Clockwork sat on the left side of the Observants, while Dora and Phantom sat on the right side.

"Did he really have to mention the 'heir to throne' part?" he whispered to Dora, who in turn chuckled at the worrisome teen.

However, as they made their way to their seats, multiple ghosts shot out of their seats and began protesting and arguing, either directly towards the Observants or towards each other.

"Why come now after all this time?!"

"He can't just disappear and come back to play hero! That's not how it works!"

"Let's just give him up already! Then they'll leave us alone!"

"He's not going to be my king!"

"But he's saved us countless times, he can be trusted!

"Ha! Like how we trusted him not to leave us behind?!"

"EVERYONE PLEASE QUIET DOWN!!! ORDER! ORDER!"

It took a while, but eventually, everyone settled down to grumbles and murmurs before one of the Observants continued.

"We are aware that some of you dislike the idea of Phantom returning to the Infinite Realms, however, we are in great need of assistance. If you are so unhappy with his presence in this meeting today then you are more than welcome to leave-"

"Excuse me Observant, but I'd to request permission from both you and the main rulers sitting here to say something before any ghosts may decide to leave the vicinity," Phantom interjected.
