DANNY PHANTOM: THE ULTIMATE RETURN

Chapter 41: Learning the Truth.

Dan, Dana, Vid, Thrash, Download and Manfred returned to the castle after Manfred confronted Team Phantom, especially Tommy and Ida. Although Danny, Dani, Sam and Tucker weren't present, it felt good for Manfred.

"So, how does it feel to confront Team Phantom and your old enemies, Manfred?" Dana asked.

"It felt good. The look on Tommy's and Ida's faces when they saw me exiting out that portal and that I'm still alive. Soon, they will join that pathetic fool Harry in death." Manfred said with a grin.

"Glad to hear that." Dan said before turning his attention to the Masters' Blasters. "Head outside to check the clean up process."

"Let's go guys." Vid said.

The Masters' Blasters leaves the throne room, leaving Dan, Dana and Manfred alone.

"So, what do we do next?" Manfred asked.

"Well, right now, our Harvester forces are striking major military bases around the world, but we will relocate to Washington D.C. where we will rule the Earth in a few minutes. Then plans to take over the Ghost Zone. I think I will make Amity Park one of the capitals of our rule." Dan replied.

"What about the Gem of Infinity, Dan? We're still looking for that for your gauntlet." Dana asked.

"I'll need to read more about it from the book that I stole from Clockwork's. It's gonna be a tough find and a powerful one." Dan said.

"My lieges, the Harvesters have successfully destroy many Human military forces and are on their way back. Unfortunately, some that wasn't attack have been evacuated into hiding or escaped." Fright Knight said.

"Doesn't matter. We will destroy the rest." Dan said.

Meanwhile, Vid, Download and Thrash were checking on the clean up operations outside the castle before starting to head back to give their reports. The three were walking through a corridor and were about to enter the throne room when Vid halts herself and her friends on their tracks as they hear Fright Knight ask Dan and Dana about what's going to happen to them. They listen in as they take a peek at the throne room.

"My lieges. Once you two accomplished your goal, what will happen to those Masters' Blasters Humans?" Fright Knight asked.

"I'm glad you ask that. Well, once we finally take over the Earth and the Ghost Zone, we will kill off the Masters' Blasters." Dan said.

"Shame. They're so naive, just like how they work for Vlad. Did they actually think we're gonna let them have revenge on Danny Phantom and Vlad Masters? Please, they won't get revenge on Danny 'cause he'll already be dead at the hands of Dan, and as for Vlad, we don't know where he is." Dana said.

"There's no way I'm gonna spare a bunch of Human ghost hunters." Dan said.

"What about me? I'm Human." Manfred asked.

"You're too important to be killed. I'll have a position for you." Dan replied.

Vid, Download and Thrash looked at each other with shock, fear and anger. They have been used! Worst, they have help these two powerful and evil ghosts get the Tetrahedron, get the Harvesters and capture the Earth and now they plan to kill them in the end. The three continue to listen in.

"So, what will your glorious rule look like?" Fright Knight asked.

Dan then wave his gauntlet at the time screen to see Dana and his rule. Vid, Download and Thrash eyes suddenly widened at fear and horror. The screen showed the enslavement and eventual genocide of humanity, as well as the destruction of the Earth. They also saw almost all Team Phantom's enemies and allies, except those allied with Dan and Dana, as slaves, all of them in chains and some of them eventually getting destroyed. They saw Dan and Dana living in the high life and people and ghosts getting destroyed since they resist their rule. They also saw enhanced individuals getting killed for either resisting or they pose a threat to Dan and Dana. What also horrifies them is that Team Phantom, the Avengers, and themselves getting killed by Dan and Dana. The three ghost hunters had enough and ran in the throne room with anger and pointed their blasters at them.
