The Bats Ghost

7

I am not good at writing fight scene. You have been warned.

"I-I-I um I am sorry, I did not mean that." Danny says as he looks down trying to hide the green blush.

Clockwork comes over and puts a hand on Danny's shoulder and Danny looks up at him. "No it is ok Danny I see you as my son." Danny hugs him. "Lets go inside."

*Clang* Danny blocks a strike from Fight Knight with his sword. The force of the strike pushes him back. "Wider your stance" Fright Knight tells Danny.

"Right" Danny says to himself. He lowers himself and then launches himself at Fight Knight. He came at him from above and swung his sword down. But Fright Knight saw this coming and countered. He blocked, then twisted his sword and made Danny's fly out of his hand and stick itself in the ground. Danny landed on the ground and was slightly stunned. Because of this, he did not have time to move when Fright Knight swung his sword down on him. Danny did not have time to move, so he put his hands up to catch it. He caught it between the palms of his hands.

"Excuse me." They look over to the speaker.

"Oh hey Clockwork. What's up?"

"I need to talk to Daniel"

"Sure thing. See you same time next time"

"Yes and remember to work on your stance"

"Ok Fright Knight." Danny walks over to his sword and pulls it out of the ground. It was a sword with a black hilt with green accents and a blade made of his ice. His ice only melted when he wanted it to and since it was ghost ice it was nearly indestructible.

"How is your training going"

"Well ever since he found out about princess, well Queen now, Dora knighting me he has been all over me training me to be a proper knight. Don't get me wrong I am grateful for the proper training and it is helping me improve my fighting style but the dude is intense. But that is not why you came here, so what do you need?"

Clockwork chuckles "you can be very observant."

"What is that supposed to mean?"

"Nothing. Now for the reason that I need to talk to you. Do you know how the government of the Zone works?"

"Sort of, it has a monarch but since he was locked away, groups of ghosts have broken off to form their own sort of government. But if there were a ruler I guess now that it would be something like the government in the living realm. With how the president gets the final say and stuff like that, but here, I guess that ghost would have a bit more

power than that"

"Not exactly. The ruler would actually have total control over the Zone and the ghosts living here."

"Ok why are you asking me this?"

Clockwork pulls out a box from under his cloak and hands it to Danny. It was a small black box. He opened it and inside was the ring of rage, that is when Danny looked up confused.

"Daniel, you are the prince of the Ghost Zone."

"What, why, when?!"

"When you fought Pariah Dark he took it as a challenge for the throne and when you defeated him you became the prince."

"But I don't want to rule."

"That is why you are perfect for the position. You already have the respect of many ghosts but you don't want the power. You know what power can do to people and won't become that."

"But what if I let the power consume me, and why do you even need a ruler? Pariah was locked away for decades."

"Yes, he may have been locked away but he still held the power and now other ghosts are trying to take that power, and if someone else gets it, it could have catastrophic consequences."
