My top 7 Batman comics

Continuing my favourite comics of comic book heroes lists, here I'm turning to DC and counting down my top 7 Batman comics. Like the other ones, these aren't what everyone considers the best, these are just my personal favourites. And the reason it's 7 is because that's how many I've read so far. So, here we go.
7. Batman: Hush:

Starting us off is the Batman story that introduced us to one of Batman's most personal enemies, Hush. One of Bruce's oldest friends, when he finds out that Bruce is Batman, he's determined to kill him. Through the story we get to meet other Batman characters and other DC characters like Poison Ivy, Joker, Two-Face and Superman. Batman also teams up with Catwoman they become romantically evolved with each other.
6. Batman: Knightfall:

Bane is not only one of Batman's strongest enemies, but also one of the smartest. In this story he gets an idea on how to beat him. He causes Batman to deal with every single one of his enemies in a single evening and when he returns, Bane is there. While Batman tries to fight him, he's too exhausted and beat down. Bane quickly gets the upper hand and beats Batman to almost near death. He then grabs him and breaks his back. Easily one of the most famous Batman panels ever.

5. Batman: A Death In The Family:

While the death of his parents is what caused Bruce to become Batman, it's the death of Jason Todd, the second Robin, that haunts Batman's career. In this story, Joker is at his most evil as he beats up Robin with a crowbar in a warehouse and leaves him there and then blows the place up as Batman arrives too late to save him. But while dead, Jason comes back to life as the Red Hood. And while he forgives Batman for not saving him, he can't forgive him for letting Joker live. Being a controversial character, Jason's death was actually voted by fans and this is one of the most haunting Batman stories ever.
4. Batman: Arkham Asylum: A Serious House On Serious Earth:
Image result for arkham asylum a serious house on earth cover
The inspiration for the 2009 video game, Batman: Arkham Asylum. In this story we see Batman venture into the heart of Arkham to stop a riot caused by the Joker. We get some very interesting background for the Batman villains. As well as some backstory on the asylum itself and it's founder, Amadeus Arkham, which shows the asylum's super dark secrets.
3. Batman: The Killing Joke:

The Joker is Batman's greatest nemesis. And the Killing Joke is the best Joker story. Here we see the Joker attempt to prove to Batman that any average person can go insane like him. He shoots and paralyses Barbra Gordon and kidnaps Commissioner Jim Gordon to make him go nuts. While this is happening, we also get a definitive look into the Joker's past about how he became the way he did. Apparently he was a regular guy who had a wife and offered two guys some help to steal stuff in return for money to help his wife. But after his wife died, he still went along with it and got knocked into the vat of chemicals that turned him into the way he is. We also see Batman trying to turn Joker good. And there's the ending with that iconic joke. Coming out in 1988, writer Alan Moore brings us one of the most disturbing Batman stories ever told. And this year DC adapted this graphic novel into an animated feature and while it may have been very divisive, like all the DC.E.U movies, at least there were some good things in it. But, and I'm not copying BHL Hudson here because I thought of this too. While I feel like Mark Hamill was definitely fantastic as Joker like always, I feel like he said that last iconic joke really weird and poorly. This is the final joke in the graphic novel. Read this "See, there were these two guys in a lunatic asylum... and one night, one night they decided they didn't like living in an asylum any more. They decided to escape. So, like, they get up to the roof, and there, just across this narrow gap, they see rooftops of the town, stretching away in the moonlight... stretching to freedom. Now the first guy, he jumps right across no problem. But his friend, his friend daredn't make the leap. Y'see... y'see he's afraid of falling. So then the first guy has an idea... he says "Hey. I have this flashlight with me. I'll shine it across the buildings and you can walk along the beam and join me." B-but the second guy just shakes his head. He says... he says "Wh-what do you think I am? CRAZY? You'd just turn it off when I'm half way across."" Now watch to how it's delivered in the movie.
I don't know but to me and BHL, Joker messes up the punchline. Did you guys get that? Cause I did. But even still the graphic novel is a great Batman story and one you should check out.
2. Batman: Year One:
Image result for batman year one graphic novel
One of the best moves DC ever made was to have Frank Miller come in to do work on retelling the origin of Batman. Removing everything he has including his gadgets and villains and instead, in this story we see Bruce's early attempt to fight crime and be a vigilantly. Coincidently, Batman arrives the same time Jim Gordon arrives in Gotham and the two of them form a partnership that has had them trusting each other on missions ever since.
And my number 1 favourite Batman comic is... Batman: The Dark Knight Returns:

Again, was there any doubt? Of course the most popular Batman comic and story ever is at my number 1. In the Dark Knight Returns, Bruce Wayne is in his late 50's and is retired from Batman. But ever since then, crime in Gotham has gotten out of hand and there are criminals called Mutants all over the place. You get to see a whole bunch of classic Batman villains. But the best part is definitely Batman vs Superman. One of the biggest inspirations for this year's Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice. Especially the Mech Suit part. This fight answered  the question everyone has been asking for years. In a fight between Batman and Superman, who's win? And everyone those are my top 7 Batman comics.

My top 5 X-Men comics

So like my last entry I'll be counting down my top 5 favourite X-Men comics. My last entry was my top 5 Spider-Man comics and now we're moving on to X-Men. It was a bit of a hard choice with choosing these but I eventually managed to figure out 5 X-Men comics I wanted to put on here. And so let's begin
5. Death of Wolverine:
Image result for x-men death of wolverine
Being the only Wolverine centred story on here, we see Wolverine going through a ton of things and the fighting a bunch of enemies and meeting some friends like Kitty Pryde. At the end he realises that Dr. Cornelius, the man who gave Wolverine his Adamantium is up to something, he finds him and destroys a whole container of liquid Adamantium and destroys it but it covers all around him. He finds Cornelius and kills him and the last shot is him kneeling down still covered in the liquid Adamantium and as the sun is coming up, the Adamantium becomes solid and covers him to the point of not getting out and he suffocates and dies.
4. X-Men: House of M:
Image result for x-men house of m graphic novel
In this story the X-Men and Avengers are debating what to do with Scarlett Witch with her powers getting out of control. Some say to keep her while others say to kill her. At the end, we get one of the most iconic scenes in X-Men history when Scarlet Witch says "No More Mutants." And it casts a spell that causes 99% of mutants around the world to lose their powers.
Image result for x-men no more mutants
3. Uncanny X-Force: Final Execution Book Z:

There've been a ton of X-Force comics but by far my favourite is during the Apocalypse Solution with this one being Final Execution Book Z. Apocalypse, now being reborn as a small boy named Evan is being captured by bad guys like Daken, Sabretooth and more. The X-Force go in to get him and fight their way to get him. Even through the story we see Deadpool and he's not being funny. I mean he is funny but he's actually trying to be serious here and get this job done. I like this version of Deadpool. Especially seeing how he's trying to help Evan. He really seems like a real good guy. And we even get some sad moments between Wolverine and Daken.
2. Days of Future Past:
Image result for days of future past graphic novel
The inspiration for the 2014 movie of the same name, Days of Future Past sees the team sending Kitty Pryde back in time to prevent the creation of the Sentinels. To do this, she must stop the X-Men from doing something that apparently causes the creation of them. Dark, gritty and very creative, Days of Future Past was not only a huge success in the comics and movie, but also the cartoons and seeing the X-Men in this way is really interesting to me.
And my number 1 favourite X-Men comic is... The Dark Phoenix Saga:
Image result for x-men the dark phoenix saga pocket book
Was there any doubt? Just like the Spider-Man list I did, this is one of, if not the most iconic X-Men story ever. After Jean Grey was presumed dead after sacrificing herself, she comes back as the Dark Phoenix. A creature with emended power and now the other X-Men must do all they can to stop her while trying not to kill one of their own. Especially a key member like Jean. The main inspiration for 2006's X-Men 3: The Last Stand, while they screwed it up there, at least they finally did it properly in this year's X-Men: Apocalypse. And, again, seeing the team like this is super interesting and this is what I think of whenever wanting to explain to anyone what the X-Men really are. Especially Wolverine and especially Cyclops. And everyone, those are my top 5 X-Men comics. Thank you all for reading and please comment to tell me what your favourite is.

My top 5 Spider-Man comics

So in this entry I'll be counting down my top 5 Spider-Man comics I've read and I've liked. I'll be doing this for a few more like Batman, X-Men and Marvel graphic novels. And if you're a comic book fan, then definitely check these out if you haven't. And here I'm counting down my top 5 comics of my favourite superhero ever, Spider-Man. Let's began.
5. Spider-Man: No More: One of the most inspirational and iconic Spider-Man comics ever created. It's no surprise that Peter Parker gets frustrated with his powers at times and threatens to give up on several occasions. But here he really seems serious. He gets rid of the suit by throwing it in a trash can and walks away in the rain, which is one of the most iconic Spider-Man panels ever.

He attempts to live a normal life without using his powers. J. Jonah Jameson finds the costume and writes about it in a newspaper where the Kingpin finds out. And this is the Kingpin's very first appearance. But after helping an old man in trouble and being reminded of what Uncle Ben said to him about with great power, comes great responsibility, Peter steals back his suit and fights Kingpin. This comic was one of the biggest inspirations for Spider-Man 2 and even now, it still holds up.
4. Venom: The 300th Spider-Man issue, we see Peter attempt to get rid of the black costume and destroy it. But while in a church getting it off him, it finds itself attaching to Eddie Brock who also hates Peter. Being Spider-Man's 300th issue, you know Stan Lee had something special planned and he delivered and brought to life of the best Spider-Man villains ever, Venom.

3. The Wings Of The Vulture: In one of the very first comics I ever read, this is story that starts off with Spider-Man against Kraven and Green Goblin, he beats up Kraven and gets away. Just then a man puts on he Vulture costume and tries to look like Adrian Tooms to cause trouble for Spider-Man and at the end of this story, Peter meets Eddie Brock and now Kraven is even more obsessed with killing Spider-Man.
Image result for spider-man the wings of the vulture
2. The Green Goblin's Last Stand: Following the events of the death of Gwen Stacy, Spider-Man attempts to get revenge against the Green Goblin. While in the fight, Spider-Man has Green Goblin down and starts beating him to death but stops at the last second. And in a final attempt to kill Spider-Man, the Green Goblin has his glider launch itself at Spider-Man who avoids it and it hits and kills the Green Goblin himself, creating one of the most iconic deaths in Spider-Man history.

Honourable mentions:
Kraven's Last Hunt,
The Kid Who Collects Spider-Man,
To Crush The Kingpin,
The Punisher Strikes Twice,
Green Grows The Goblin,
... Just A Man Called Cage
And my number 1 favourite Spider-Man comic is... The Night Gwen Stacy Died: Was there any doubt? Of course the most famous Spider-Man comic ever and the comic to change comic books forever. This comic killed off Peter's first girlfriend and ended the golden age of comics and caused them to be more dark and gritty. During a fight between Spider-Man and the Green Goblin, Gwen is knocked off a bridge. Spider-Man shoots a web to catch her but the whiplash from the webbing catching her snaps her neck and kills her.

This scene traumatised so many comic readers and shocked them and changed a whole era of comics. And this scene was the inspiration for the same scene in the Amazing Spider-Man 2. And so everyone, those are my top 5 Spider-Man comics. Thank you all for reading and please comment below to tell me what your favourite is.

A Dangerous Father and Son

Continuing my Daniel Danger stories is this one. With each new story we're getting closer and closer to the final story which I'm really excited to start doing because, I don't know this for certainty, but I think a lot of people are wondering who the mysterious person talking at the end of some of my stories is. I'm actually showing my stories to one of my friends at school and he's liking these stories and he can't wait to read the last one and find out who the mysterious voice is. And overall, I'm super excited. So let's start and I hope you all enjoy.
It's been two weeks since the Dangers were on Onia and stopped Tent and Willow. In Limerick, five thieves were being chased by police who were shooting at them. They had bags of jewellery and money and food. They each had two bags. There was a noise. The thieves looked and saw that one of them was on the ground knocked out. They grabbed his bags and kept running as the police were still shooting at them. They looked again and another thieve on the ground again. There were three left. They tried to carry his bags. The police were picking up the knocked out thieves as they were chasing them. The thieves kept going. But then the one in the front looked and saw that the last two behind his were knocked out again. He looked around and went into a gap between two buildings as the police were running by. They got the two knocked out thieves on the ground and kept going forward to catch him. When they were out of sight the thieve came out. He then felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned around and fired a gun. The same thing happened again. He looked around.
Thief 1: "Where are you? Who are you?"
Just then something grabbed him and he flew up. He landed on the roof above him and he looked at what was grabbing him. It was Daniel in his suit.
Daniel (In deep voice): "I'm Batman."
Daniel: "Heh, heh, heh, heh."
He punched the thief and knocked him out. He flew down to the police and gave him to them. Later when he was at home, he put clothes over his suit and put his helmet and gloves in his bag and then went for a walk out to the strand and went to the top of the hill at the beach. He sat there for a few minutes and then got up. He went into a bathroom and put his suit on again. He was getting a little bored and teleported to Driforia. When he got there, the other Dangers were still resting up from the fight on Onia. He went inside the building and went into the room where they always hang out. He was there for a few minutes and then went out for a walk around the place. He was about to fly up to the top of a cliff, but then there was a noise. Without turning around...
Daniel: "... That you Doc?"
Dr. Buckley: "Yes Daniel."
Daniel landed on the ground and turned around and looked at the sky where Dr. Buckley's vision was.
Daniel: "Hey Doc. So any trouble?"
Dr. Buckley: "Yes."
Daniel: "Alright. Lay it on me."
Dr. Buckley: "There's a family in dyer trouble on the planet Zuter."
Daniel: "Zuter? O.K. Do I have time to get the Dangers."
Dr. Buckley: "No. This is another mission you must take on your own I'm afraid."
Daniel: "... O.K. I'm on it."
Dr. Buckley vanished and Daniel got his teleporter ready. He got the coordinates and teleported to the planet. When he arrived, he was standing in front of a huge wall. He looked at it and flew upwards. When he got to the top, he saw that behind the wall was a huge town. He flew onto the roof of a building. There were at over a hundred buildings there.
Daniel: "O.K. So where's that family Doc said was in trouble?"
He flew up again and looked all around. On the streets were people with navy coloured skin. At the centre of the town was a huge building that almost looked like some kind of church or temple. He floated next to it. He looked up the street which was narrow. At the top of that street was another building with lights on inside it.
Daniel: "Hmm. That couldn't be it, could it? Oh well, wouldn't hurt to try."
He landed on the ground and walked into the light. Everyone there looked at him in huge surprise. They looked cautious.
Daniel: "Don't worry. I'm not here to hurt any of you."
He continued to walk until he reached it. He could hear something inside. It sounded like someone was screaming. He went to the door and knocked. Someone opened the door. It was another one of those navy coloured creatures. It looked at him wide-eyed. It screamed tried to shut the door. He put his foot in to stop it. He opened the door and walked it. The creature attacked.
???: "Who-who are you. What are you? Please don't hurt me or my family."
Daniel: "I won't. I promise."
???: "Y-you won't?"
Daniel: "No I won't."
???: "Then who are you, where did you come from, what's with the costume and what are you doing here?"
Daniel: "Oh right. I'm Daniel Danger. And I'll explain everything in a second. But I heard you're in trouble so I came to help."
???: "Really?"
Daniel: "Yeah. I know this is weird but I'm telling the truth."
???: "... Well... thank you. But if you are here to help, I think you might be a little too late."
Daniel: "Too late? Why? What's going on?"
The two of them went into another room where there was a noise. Inside was a boy on a table screaming in pain. Next to him were a man, a woman and another boy. They all looked at Daniel. They took a couple of steps back.
Woman: "Who are you?"
Daniel: "I'm Daniel Danger. I came to help with a problem I heard you were having."
Woman: "Really?"
Daniel: "Yeah."
Woman: "Well... you are here to help, it's with our son."
She pointed to the boy on the table who was screaming in pain.
Daniel: "What's going with him."
Woman: "It's the power inside him."
Daniel: "Power? What'd you mean?"
Woman: "When he was born, Raphael here had a special power put inside him to help him because he was dying. They put the power of a guardian creature in him. But now, the power inside him is tearing him apart. If we don't do something fast, he'll die."
Daniel: "Well, what can I do to help?"
Man: "You have to bring us to some place so he can be treated."
Daniel: "O.K. Where? I can bring him there in no time."
Man: "I'll show you. I have to come too."
Woman: "I'll come too."
Man: "No Sarah. I'll be the one there for him."
Sarah: "Are you sure Chris?"
Chris: "Absolutely. I promise he'll be fine."
Sarah nodded. Daniel grabbed Raphael off the table and both him and Chris headed out the door. Before they left, Sarah looked at Daniel.
Sarah: "Daniel Danger, thank you for helping. Please make sure my baby's O.K."
Daniel: "I will. I promise."
They went out. The door closed. Chris then pointed to the huge building that looked like a temple.
Daniel: "In there?"
Chris: "Yeah."
Daniel: "Alright. I'm on it."
Daniel also picked up Chris and began to fly as fast as he could to the building. When they got there, they went in. It was empty. Chris led the way and they went down some stairs. They went into a room and it was dark. There was a table in the centre with two poles on both sides with antenna like objects on them. Daniel put Raphael on it who was still screaming and holding his stomach which was in pain. Chris looked at Daniel.
Chris: "Thank you for your help. I can handle everything now."
Daniel: "Are you sure? There's nothing left I have to do?"
Chris: "No really. Thank you."
Daniel nodded and walked off. Chris looked at Raphael and started some machines. A few minutes later, Daniel went back to their house. He went in. Everyone was still there.
Sarah: "Daniel Danger, did you do it?"
Daniel: "Yeah. Don't worry. Your son's going to be fine."
Sarah: "Thank you so much."
Daniel smiled.
Sarah: "Oh right. This is my other son Marvin."
Daniel: "Hi there."
Marvin: "H-hi."
Sarah: "You'll have to forgive him. He's not used to meeting new people. And now that I think about it, none of us are used to meeting a person like you. Where are you from anyway?"
Daniel: "Oh, right."
For a few minutes Daniel was explaining to them where he's from, Driforia, the other Dangers and all his powers and how he got them.
Daniel: "So what was wrong with your son anyway?"
Sarah: "Well, like I said, when he was born, something was wrong with him and he was dying. The only way we could find to save him was to use the guardian from the wall."
Daniel: "The what?"
Sarah: "Many years ago there was this powerful creature by the wall called the Guardian Protector. It was like a spirit and it was tasked with protecting us from attacks if thy ever came. But after Raphael was born and we realised he was dying, we had to sacrifice it for his protection. So they managed to absorb the power of the Guardian Protector and put it in him as a way of saving his life."
Daniel: "Whoa. That sounds kinda scary."
Sarah: "It was. We were told that one day the power would get out of hand and too powerful for his body to handle and that something like this would happen. If he isn't helped soon, not only will Raphael die, but also the spirit as well. We hoped that the day would never come when that happened, but here we are now. Just praying he'll be fine."
Daniel: "O.K."
Daniel got up and headed towards the door.
Sarah: "Where are you going?"
Daniel: "I think I'm going to go out for while. Don't worry, I'll be back to see how Raphael's doing."
Sarah nodded.
???: "I'll go too."
Daniel looked. It was the same one who opened the door the first time for him.
Sarah: "Are you sure?"
???: "Yeah."
Daniel: "Hmm. Alright. If you want."
The person got up and walked towards him. The person was wearing a hat. Daniel looked a little curious for a second but then the two of them went out. They were walk for a while and talking as well. But at one point while walking, the person tripped and fell on the ground. Daniel looked. He had a surprised look on his face. The person got up and it had long hair. It got itself up. Daniel's mouth dropped as he figured it out. The person put it's hat back on.
???: "Sorry about that. I'm fine."
The person looked at him.
???: "What?"
Daniel was trembling.
Daniel: "Are you a g-g-g-g..."
???: "What? Are you trying to say girl?"
Daniel nodded nervously.
???: "Yeah. I am. Oh yeah, I never told you my name. My name's Rose. Sorry about that."
Daniel: "Oh. O.K."
They continued on and kept talking about all sorts of stuff. They headed back to Rose's house.
Rose: "I sure do hope Raphael is doing alright."
Daniel: "I'm sure he's doing just fine. Your dad's there and he'll take good care of him."
Rose: "And the Doctors?"
Daniel: "Doctors? I didn't see any Doctors when I was there."
Rose: "What. Of course you did. It's a hospital."
Daniel: "The temple is a hospital?"
Rose: "Wait. What?"
Daniel: "What?"
Rose: "Did you say temple?"
Daniel: "Yeah. Why?"
Rose: "As in the one above our street?"
Daniel: "Yeah. Why? What's wrong?"
Rose began to panic.
Rose: "Oh my... on no."
Daniel: "Wha... what's wrong? What's going on?"
Rose: "Oh no. Dad. No. Don't tell me you're doing it."
Daniel: "Doing what? What are you talking about?"
Rose: "... MOM."
She began to run back to the house. Daniel followed her. They kept going until they got to the house and ran in.
Rose: "MOM. MOM."
Sarah: "Whoa Rose? What's going on?"
Rose: "Mom, dad and Raphael aren't at the hospital. They're at the temple."
Sarah: "The temple?"
Rose: "Yeah. I think dad's trying to do it."
Sarah: "Oh no. Even when he said he'd given it up, he lied."
Daniel: "Whoa, whoa, whoa. What's going on? What's your dad doing at the temple."
Rose: "He's trying to get the power out of Raphael."
Daniel: "Why? What's wrong with that? Didn't you say that that power was killing Raphael."
Sarah: "No. You don't understand. Many years ago when Chris and I first met, he said that his life long dream was to have the power of the Guardian Protector. I told him that it would be too strong and it would drive him mad but then when we had Raphael and we had to put it inside him to save him, he swore that he's never want to have the power. But now I know that he was lying. We have to stop him. If Chris absorbs that power, he'll destroy everything and Raphael will die."
Daniel glared.
Daniel: "I'm on it."
He ran out of the house and flew towards the temple. Just then, Chris ran out of it. Daniel glared at him.
Daniel: "You."
He grabbed Chris and held him up.
Daniel: "You liar. Where's Raphael?"
Sarah and Rose arrived.
Sarah: "Daniel Danger, put him down."
Daniel slowly put Chris down then let go of him.
Sarah: "Chris, how dare you lie to me. Where's Raphael? Where's our son?"
Chris: "... I think he's gone."
Daniel, Rose and Sarah looked confused but then the ground began to shake.
Daniel: "Whoa. What's going on?"
Chris: "... The fight for planet Zuter has begun."
The temple began to crack. Daniel, Rose, Sarah and every other person there looked at it. It began to come apart. They got away from it as pieces came down. There was another noise. The entire temple came apart completely and when it did, a humungous creature with red skin. It had a round body and wings on it's back. It also had long arms and legs. At the front of it's stomach was Raphael's head. Everyone looked at it open mouthed.
Daniel: "What is that thing?"
Sarah: "IT'S THE GUARDIAN PROTECTOR THAT WAS PUT INSIDE OF RAPHAEL."
The Guardian Protector looked at them. It raised it's arm. Everyone got out of the way and it smashed it's fist into the ground.
Daniel: "What's going on? I thought this thing was supposed to protect you."
Sarah: "It wasn't always protecting us. When it was founded centuries ago, it tried to kill us but someone managed to put a power on it to make it protect us. But after it was absorbed into Raphael, they had to destroy that power because it wouldn't be absorbed into him with that power still on it."
Daniel: "Oh man."
The Guardian Protector swung it's arms around and began to destroy buildings. People were running away.
Daniel: "I've gotta stop it."
Chris: "Look at him."
Daniel, Sarah and Rose looked at him.
Chris: "To think that my son has now turned into a weapon of destruction. I used to believe in him. But now all that boy has done is kill us. What waste he was. I should have taken that power from him long ago. That monster, he's..."
Daniel glared at him and then punched him in the face. Sarah and Rose looked at him in surprise. Daniel grabbed him and glared at him.
Daniel: "HE'S YOUR SON. AND THIS IS NOT HOW A FATHER IS SUPPOSED TO SEE HIS SON. NOT AS A MINDLESS MONSTER ON A RAMPAGE, BUT AS REAL LIVING BEING WHO HE LOVES NO MATTER WHAT. SOMEONE WHO HE'D PUT ALL HIS TRUST INTO AND FOLLOW HIM TO THE BITTER END. AND ESPECIALLY SOMEONE A FATHER SOULD ALWAYS BE PROUD OF. AND THIS WHOLE THING IS YOUR FAULT ANYWAY. SO THAT MEANS YOU SHOULD AT LEAST SHARE SOME BURDEN. If not, then I think you're really the monster."
He let Chris go and then looked at the Guardian Protector spirit again.
Daniel: "I don't entirely know what I can do. But I promise you Raphael will not die."
Rose: "What are you talking about?"
Daniel: "Just go back to your house, get Marvin and get as far away from here as you can."
Sarah: "What about you?"
Daniel: "... I have to stop him."
Sarah: "No. Pleas don't kill him."
Daniel: "I just said he's not going to die. I never kill anyway. Go on."
Rose: "Daniel Danger, please be O.K."
Daniel: "Sure. And just call me Daniel."
Daniel flew off towards it. Sarah and Rose ran off. Chris walked into the temple again. Daniel flew right in front of it.
Daniel: "Raphael, listen to me. I'm your friend. Please try to fight this power. This is not what you are."
The Guardian Protector swung it's arm and hit Daniel. He was knocked back but then he flew back and got his sword and shield out. The Guardian Protector tried to punch him but then Daniel flew towards it's head and swung his sword. He hit it but nothing happened. The Guardian Protector tried to grab him. He flew off. He flew back and punched it. Still nothing happened.
Daniel: "Why does that keep happening?"
???: "Because that's not how to beat it."
Daniel looked down. It was Chris. He flew down to him.
Daniel: "What are you talking about."
Chris: "Daniel Danger, you were right. I'm so sorry I caused this. Here, take this."
He handed Daniel something. It looked like a small knife.
Daniel: "What's this?"
Chris: "That is how the Guardian Protector was captured the first time. That knife is able to capture the power of anything it pierces. It requires a lot of power to work. It's been in the temple in a special place gaining power this whole time. It looks liked this is a good time to use it again. Once you pierce it, press that button to absorb the power."
Daniel: "O.K. Thanks. Get out of here and I'll do it."
Chris: "Right. Please take care of Raphael."
Daniel: "I will. Go."
Chris went off and Daniel looked at the Guardian Protector again. He flew up to it and dodged it's arms. It hit him and he dropped the knife. He gasped and looked at it fall to the ground. He began to fly towards it but then the Guardian Protector kicked him. He was launched into the air but then the Guardian Protector grabbed him. It began to squeeze him and he was screaming in pain. He was trying to breath. The Guardian Protector held out it's fist to punch him but then it lost it's grip on him. He was falling to the ground but then he flew in the air again. He looked and saw Chris. He was holding the knife which was in the Guardian Protector's foot. Daniel flew down to him. Chris pressed the button and the Guardian Protector roared. It began to get smaller. Just then Raphael's body was coming through. Daniel looked at him and flew up to him. He grabbed him and brought him down to the ground. He looked at Chris who was still holding the knife and the Guardian Protector was completely absorbed into it.
Daniel: "You did it."
Chris looked at it and then walked over to Daniel. He bent down and they both looked at Raphael who's eyes were closed. Rose, Sarah and Marvin then came towards them and they looked at Raphael. Daniel got up and took some steps away.
Sarah: "Is he O.K?"
Daniel: "I don't know. I hope so."
Rose: "Thank you for helping Daniel."
Daniel: "Don't thank me. Thank your dad. He's the one who saved me by stopping that thing."
Chris looked at the knife again.
Daniel: "Well you did it. What're you going to do with it now?"
Chris: "I finally have it."
Daniel: "What... Chris... maybe you should give it to me. I can bring it back to Driforia and lock it away."
Chris: "Give it to you? Heh. No way. I've been waiting my whole life for this and now I finally have it."
Sarah looked at him.
Sarah: "Chris, no. Remember what I told you a long time ago when we first met. It will drive you mad. I don't even know if you'll survive. You should give it to Daniel."
Chris: "Heh. Never. It's mine now."
He turned the knife around to make the blade face himself. Daniel grabbed his hands.
Daniel: "You mean you were tricking me that whole time?"
Chris: "Of course. I knew if I had you get the power into the knife, I'd be able to take it use it on myself."
Daniel glared.
Daniel: "You're not getting it."
Chris: "Yes I am. I've waited a long time for this and I'm not letting anyone take it away from me."
He punched Daniel a few times and then kicked him in the chest. Daniel lost his grip. Chris quickly stabbed himself with the knife.
Rose: "NO DAD."
Chris pushed the button and screamed. The power of the Guardian Protector went inside his body. He threw the knife away. The power went all around his body. Everyone covered their eyes. When they opened them again, the Guardian Protector was in front of them again. Chris's head was in it's stomach this time. It was moving. The face smiled.
Chris: "HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA. THIS POWER, IT'S AMAZING."
Daniel: "Not again."
Sarah and Rose looked at him in shock. Marvin screamed in fear and he started crying. Just then Raphael started moving. They looked at him. They went over to him. The Guardian Protector began to go off and destroy more buildings people were running away from it. It smashed down the wall around the town and walked off. Daniel watched but then he looked down at Raphael. He opened his eyes. Sarah and Rose helped him up. They looked at him.
Sarah: "Raphael? Can you hear me?"
Raphael: "... M-mom?"
She smiled a little.
Sarah: "He's alive."
Daniel: "Yeah. But we've got to deal with Chris. I'm gonna go after him."
Rose: "What are you going to do?"
Daniel: "..."
Raphael: "... Mom?"
Sarah: "Y-yes Raphael?"
Raphael: "... Who's... that?"
He pointed at Daniel.
Sarah: "That's Daniel. He came to help us. To help you."
Raphael: "... Really?"
Sarah: "Yes."
Raphael: "... Where's dad?"
The three of them looked surprised and raised their eyes.
Rose: "It's a long story."
Raphael: "Wait... I'm not feeling any pain. What happened?"
Sarah: "You don't have the Guardian Protector power in you anymore."
Raphael: "Then how am I still alive?"
Sarah: "I don't know. It must be from your will power."
Raphael stood up by himself and Sarah and Rose let go of him.
Raphael: "But really... where's dad?"
Daniel: "... He absorbed the power of that thing for himself."
Raphael: "What?"
Daniel: "He used me to have the power of that thing inside you and then he put it inside himself and now he's off on a rampage. But don't worry. I'm going to stop him."
Raphael: "No."
Raphael trembled.
Raphael: "So, you're saying it's my fault?"
Daniel: "What? No, no. Of course not. It wasn't your fault at all. It's your dad's. He's the one who wanted it for himself. And I'm going to stop him right now and make him pay for what he did to you."
Raphael looked and saw the knife on the ground. He went over to it and picked it up. The others were looking at him.
Rose: "Raphael? What are you doing?"
Raphael: "None of this would have happened if I wasn't born. I shouldn't be alive. So now..."
He pointed the blade to his throat.
Sarah: "Raphael, no."
He began to force it towards his throat but then it stopped. Raphael opened his eyes and saw Daniel was holding his hands to stop him.
Daniel: "You can't do that. I won't let you. Absolutely none of this is your fault. It's like I said, it's your dad. He's the one who's been using you. You have to live. I can't let you do that to yourself. If you go, think about what that would do to the rest of your family. It'd crush them. They'd never be able to live with themselves. And I'm not going to allow an innocent person and my friend kill himself."
Raphael: "... F-friend?"
Daniel: "Heh, yeah. You're all my friends."
He took the knife from Raphael's hands. He looked at it. Raphael went to Sarah.
Daniel: "So this thing needs a lot of power to work?"
Rose: "Yeah."
Daniel: "O.K."
He stood up and held it in one hand. He touched the D mark on his left arm with his right hand and then clenched his fist. He turned into the Light Danger. The others looked at him in shock.
Rose: "Whoa."
Daniel held the knife with both his hands and then closed his eyes. He began to use the Light Danger power to fill the knife with power. It reached full power.
Daniel: "There we go. Now all I have to do is jab this into that thing and it'll be over. You guys get out of here. I can do this by myself."
He flew off after the Guardian Protector. Sarah, Rose, Raphael and Marvin watched him fly off. Daniel spotted the Guardian Protector walking towards another town. He flew down towards it.
Daniel: "Hey, you."
It looked at him.
He held the knife hard. He swung it at it but the Guardian Protector avoided it. It grabbed his leg and threw him to the ground. He was still holding it. It was about to stomp on him but then he moved away. He jumped it with the knife but it moved away. It punched him away. He flew around then landed on the ground. He looked at it. He glared then flew at it again. It raised it's leg but he avoided it. He was about to stick the knife in it's leg but then it raised it's leg and tried to stomp him to the ground again. He held the knife above him as it was but then it stopped and instead went to grab him. It grabbed his legs and began to move it's wings. It flew into the air but then Daniel got free. He ran up it's arm and was about to stick the knife into it but then it moved it's other arm and made a fist. It was about to hit him but he dodged it. He made it to the shoulder and then jumped down and held the knife out. The Guardian Protector swiped it's arm in front of itself and hit him. Daniel stopped himself in the air. He glared at it. He then raised his eyes and got and idea. He put the knife on the magnet on his side he puts his helmet. He got out his sword. He got in front of the Guardian Protector.
Daniel: "This is as far as you go."
Daniel stuck his sword into the ground. He made a leap into the air and then slammed down onto the sword. the wave of energy came from it. It went towards the Guardian Protector. It hit it's legs and it fell forward. Daniel got out of the way as it fell. He went to it's back. He got the knife. He jammed it into it's back.
Chris: "NO. DON'T."
Daniel pressed the button and the power of the Guardian Protector started to be absorbed by the knife again. It went completely in. Daniel looked at Chris who was on the ground. He glared at him. Chris got up and looked at himself.
Chris: "No, NO. How dare you. Give me back my power."
He ran towards Daniel clenching his fist.
Daniel: "Shut up you piece of garbage."
Daniel quickly punched him in the face and knocked him out. He grabbed him and brought him back to the house. Everyone was there. They looked at them.
Sarah: "You did it Daniel."
Daniel smiled.
Daniel: "I'm going to take the knife back with me and him as well."
She nodded. Raphael walked towards Daniel.
Raphael: "Thank you for helping. I'm sad to see now what my dad was doing to me this whole time."
Daniel: "Don't worry. You're alright now."
Rose: "I'd like to say thank you too Daniel. For everything."
Daniel nodded.
Rose: "Will we ever meet again?"
Daniel: "Yeah. Totally."
Rose: "That's good."
Daniel: "I've gotta go. Later."
They waved goodbye and Daniel stuck his thumb up. He then teleported back to Driforia. He put Chris in a cell and put the knife in dark room. He then met the Dangers and explained everything that happened to them. He then teleported home.

My guesses for the six Spider-Man appearances in the Marvel Cinematic Universe

So I read on Facebook that apparently Tom Holland's contract states that he's signed on for six more Marvel Cinematic Universe movies with three of them being solo Spider-Man movies and one of them being Spider-Man: Homecoming. The other three being other M.C.U movies so here I'm going to guess what they are. The first and most obvious is Avengers: Infinity War. I mean Infinity War is going to be bringing every Avenger together and he's very likely to be in it too himself. Another one I think he's going to show up in. And I guess I could count could Avengers 4 but I'm not entirely because I'm counting it along with Infinity War. Anyway, my second guess is Moon Knight. Again, we don't have any confirmation for a Phase 4 and the movies in it or if there will be one at all. But I've already talked about Moon Knight before when I did my top 5 Marvel heroes who I want to see get a Netflix show. I already explained everything about him there and one of things I said was that Spider-Man is one of his biggest allies. And if they don't give him a TV show, how about a movie. I'd like that and so maybe they could have Spider-Man show up as an ally or small partner for a mission. And the final one I can think of maybe Nova. I think maybe Nova could be another new character they could introduce for the M.C.U. Nova in the comics is from Xandar, which we saw in Guardians in the Galaxy, and after surviving an attack, he makes it to Earth and gets his powers and a costume. This is what he looks like.
Nova1adigranov.jpg
And so maybe if they bring him into the M.C.U, maybe Spider-Man can be with him seeing how they're allies in the comics and cartoons. And, kinda off that subject, maybe in the two other Spider-Man movies we'll be getting, hopefully we'll get the Green Goblin and Venom as villains and hopefully this time we'll get a proper version of Venom instead of that thing we got in Spider-Man 3 if you remember. And everyone, those are my guesses for Spider-Man's appearances in the M.C.U. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think.

Cars 3 teaser trailer

So yesterday Pixar posted a teaser trailer for Cars 3. Overall, I think it looks pretty cool and kinda sad and pretty surprising. I'm hoping it's good and it doesn't go down the Cars 2 road if you know what I mean. Here it is.

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

Well, here we are. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. This movie is carrying on the Harry Potter series and I was really excited for this. Not just because I love Harry Potter and I'm a huge fan of it, but also because the trailers were looking really good and its cast was looking fantastic too. So, did this movie live up to my expectations and actually be good? Yeah, it definitely. It was a whole lot of fun. I do have some problems with it but the positives definitely overshadow the negatives. And I won't be talking about the full story but I will be talking about spoilers so if you haven't seen it yet, go see it and then read this. And the reason I won't be talking about the full story is because it's kinda hard to explain the full thing. But anyway, go see it and then read this. What's the story? It's set many decades before Harry is born and the first thing we see are a bunch of newspapers reading some things. We then meet a man named Newt Scamander, played by Eddie Redmayne, who's coming to New York from London and he has a special case with creatures inside it. As he's walking, one of the creatures gets out and starts running around and he tries to chase and they end up inside a bank where he meets a man named Jacob Kowalski, played by Dan Fogler, who has a dream of opening a bakery. And when he spots Newt's creature, Newt gets them out of there using magic meaning he's exposed magic to a muggle. Before Newt can erase he memories, Kowalski runs off and Newt meets another character named Tina, played by Katherine Waterston, who brings Newt in as a prisoner for having the case and exposing magic to a muggle, or "no-maj" as they call muggles in America. Something else that Newt is trying to do is show people that these creatures he has are not dangerous. That they're gentle and friendly while everyone else believes they're evil and should be destroyed. Now, like I said, I was really excited for this. And from seeing other people's reviews of it saying it was another great movie, I went in with no doubts. If you remember, last year I did reviews for every single Harry Potter movie. And while I haven't loved every movie, I still love most of them and this franchise. And I even did a ranking for all of them. I love at least five of them but I still enjoy all of them. And in case you didn't know, this is actually written by J.K. Rowling. As in this isn't based on any book she's written. She wrote the screenplay and so no one going into this know what's going to happen. And I was really pleased while watching this except the ending. I'll get to that in a second but I'm going to talk about the positives. Firstly the cast is amazing. Eddie Redmayne is fantastic as Newt. He's a great replacement for the main character of this new movie franchise and he's also really likeable. He was my personal favourite character in the movie. And the rest of the cast is also fantastic and I liked all the other characters too. The effects as well are super cool like always. And the actual creature are really cool again like always and they're super creative. I especially like that little grass thing that Newt had with him all the time the most. The villains are also cool. There's that evil guardian mother who I really hated who was always mean. Am I the only one who noticed that a lot of guardians in this universe are jerks. First there were the Dursleys and now this woman. And the main villain, who's revealed to be Gellert Grindelwald is also pretty cool. The twist where we find out it's really him was really surprising to me. We knew him already from the Harry Potter movies and he's also the same person who told Voldemort where to find the Elder Wand. And like I said a second ago, the ending is not a complete happy ending. I mean we see another creature named Credence, played by Ezra Miller, and you feel so sorry for this guy. He's been abused his whole life and he's been used for years and at the end when Newt is trying to help him, the other wizards kill him. That is honestly really sad and you feel really sorry for him. And the whole thing where they erase Kowalski and all of New York's memory of what happened is also pretty sad. I also like that David Yates returned to direct this movie because he clearly understands this world and his direction is fantastic once again. And I liked the small Easter eggs in this that tied it into the Harry Potter franchise. Especially the necklace with the Deathly Hallows sign on. I thought that was awesome. And that'll make Harry Potter fans like really satisfied. It's also a really funny movie. Now as far as a few negatives I have, there aren't many. My first flaw is some of the effects are kinda weird. Most of them are amazing. But once or twice they were a bit off. Same with a small bit of the editing. It was good, but a couple of times, there were moments where it was kinda weird. But still, for the vast majority of it, both of those were fantastic. Another is that I thought the pacing wasn't perfect. At times I thought it wasn't the best. But again, it was a good pacing for the vast majority. And my last flaw is that I think that there might be a few too many exposition scenes where we hear people talking and we're going to need that to understand, but at times it was a tad bit too much. But besides that, this is another great Harry Potter movie. If you were to ask me where I'd put it on my ranking of the Harry Potter movies, I'd say I'd put it after Goblet of Fire and before the Half Blood Prince. This is still a great movie and if you're a Harry Potter fan, definitely check it out if you haven't yet. There's also supposed to be a few more sequels and the next one is coming out in two years and I can't wait for them. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think.

Power to match the Light Danger

Yes, another Daniel Danger story. Really, like I said, I have all the remaining ones thought out and so I'll just get right to it. After this one I really have only four and that includes the final story. And so, let's get started and I hope you all enjoy.
It's been a few days since the Dangers stopped Temple and his castle in space. Daniel also made up a fake story to family about the bandage on his forehead. He was now in his suit at the strand hotel sitting on the roof lying back with his hands behind his head and legs crossed and listening to his music. Later he got up and began to fly above the rooves of Youghal. He landed on the roof of his own house and looked at the time on his phone. It was almost 6:00PM. He jumped into his room. The next day he looked at his laptop. He saw something on the news and a headline read "In Dundalk cinema, thugs are holding people hostage."
Daniel: "Well, that's my call into action. It's about something fun happened again after a couple of days."
He went upstairs to get his suit and got it, brought it downstairs and got into it. In Dundalk, the thugs that were keeping the people hostage were in a cinema. There were ten thugs and the police were outside trying to get in. The thugs were stealing the cinema's money and people's belongings. They all had guns. After they got everything, they got ready to go outside. They charged out and fired at the police who were hiding behind their cars. Just then there was a light in front of them all. When it vanished, Daniel was standing there. He had teleported there.
Daniel: "Hey everyone. Let's just skip the intro and get to the point. Blah, blah, blah, I'm Daniel Danger. Blah, blah, blah, I kick your butts and put everything back. But first, I'm going to give you the chance put down your guns, return everything and surrender quietly and you won't suffer a mean butt kick. What do ya say?"
Thug 1: "Shoot him."
The thugs aimed their guns at him.
Daniel: "O.K. But don't say I didn't offer first."
As they fired Daniel flipped and flew over all of them and knocked them all out. The last one looked up at him while he was on the ground. Daniel bent down to him.
Daniel: "I did offer."
The thug's head dropped down. Daniel and the police went to see if everyone was O.K and give them their stuff back. When Daniel got home, he was about to take his suit off but then heard a noise on his communicator.
Daniel: "Yeah, hello?"
Owen: "Daniel, it's me."
Daniel: "Hey Owen. Something up?"
Owen: "Yeah. And it's huge."
Daniel: "Alright. Explain it when I get there."
Owen: "Sure."
Daniel ran into the garden and went behind the hedge and teleported to Driforia. When he arrived he went to the ship and met everyone.
Daniel: "Hey everyone. What going on? What's this huge thing Owen told me about?"
Stephanie: "Hi Daniel. It looks like there's some sort of huge power coming from something in space."
Daniel: "Huge power?"
Jason: "Yeah. I don't think we've seen anything this powerful in ages."
Daniel: "Whoa."
He walked towards the huge screen. It came on and they could see space and there was a beeping dot. On the stats next to it, the stats were going up really fast.
Daniel: "Huh. Well you guys weren't kidding about the whole thing being hugely powerful. Where's it coming from anyway?"
Zane: "On the planet Onia. And from what we can gather, it's supposed to be a deserted planet."
Daniel: "Deserted? As in like completely deserted?"
Troy: "Well if we found something that's super powerful than I guess there might be some creature there."
Daniel: "Well then let's go see what it is. Come on."
They then teleported to the planet. When they arrived, they looked around. They couldn't see anything but rocks all over the place. And the sky looked like there was about to be a storm with there being dark clouds.
Daniel: "So where is it?"
Chloe: "We don't know. We'll have to look for it."
Daniel: "O.K."
They flew into the air and looked around.
Stephanie: "See anything?"
Luke: "No."
Troy: "Not yet."
They flew off looking for anything. They then spotted something that looked like a tall building. They landed and looked at it. They looked at the top of it that had something that looked like an antenna on it. Lightning was coming from the sky. They looked around the back of the building where there was a ship.
Bella: "What's going on?"
Zane: "I don't know."
The lightning in the sky got worse.
Daniel: "Come on guys. Let's go see what's inside the building."
They walked off and went inside the building. When they did, it was a small round hall with stairs going up. They began to fly up them. As they were, they were looking through doors on the way. They eventually made it to the top floor. The top floor was a huge round room and there were two people there around machines. They raised their heads and looked at the Dangers.
Daniel: "Huh, who are you two?"
???: "Heh, heh, heh. Look at what we have here Trent. It's the Dangers."
???: "So it is Willow. Heh, heh, heh."
Jason: "What's so funny? Who are you two?"
???: "My name is Trent and this is Willow. And let's just say that we're two people who have an interest in you Dangers. Especially you Daniel Danger."
Daniel: "You know us?"
Willow: "Of course we do. We've both heard so many things about all of you from the people of this planet."
Stephanie: "What are you talking about? There are no other people on this planet."
Trent: "Not until recently."
Luke: "What are you talking about?"
Willow: "You see, we're both two very powerful creatures. And recently we decided to test some new power we discovered and we did it by eradicating every living creature on this planet. Heh, heh, heh, heh."
All the Dangers gasped. Daniel glared and gritted his teeth.
Daniel: "YOU MONSTERS."
He flew towards them and as he did, Trent raised his and lightning from outside came through the window and hit Daniel. Daniel screamed. He was knocked back.
Stephanie: "DANIEL."
He picked himself up and looked at them.
Daniel: "What was that?"
Willow: "This is our power. We were born on a family of magic users on our planet but were both began to think that the people here were too weak for us. So we not only killed the other people here. But also our family. It's just us now. And we will reach our full potential and become the most powerful creatures in the universes."
Daniel: "You'll have to kill me first. And that won't exactly be the easiest thing ever."
Trent: "Kill you? Heh. If you insist."
Trent raised his hand again and lightning headed towards Daniel again. He avoided it. The other Dangers flew towards them. Willow then raised his hand. When he did, the rocks on the ground outside began to move. They then lifted into the air and flew upwards. They crashed through the wall and the Dangers looked at them. Willow moved his hand to the side and the rocks moved towards the Dangers. They hit them. They smashed them against the wall.
Daniel: "GUYS."
Daniel glared at them again. Willow looked at him.
Willow: "And that's my power. Trent can manipulate lightning and I can manipulate any kind of rock I want."
Daniel ran towards them. Willow moved his hands and some of the rocks that hit the Dangers moved towards. Daniel flew in the air to dodge them He then looked and saw that Trent was sending a lightning bolt to hit him. Daniel got out of the way. He landed on the ground. He went to the other Dangers who were on the ground.
Daniel: "Guys. Come on, get up."
Three of them got up.
Daniel: "You all O.K?"
Owen: "... Eh... Yeah."
Daniel looked at Trent and Willow again.
Daniel: "Look out."
Trent sent more lightning after them. Daniel and the Dangers who were up avoided it. Willow used six rocks to go around Daniel. Four around him, one above him and one below him. Willow clenched his fist and they came towards him. They came together. Willow smiled. However Daniel was pushing on the rocks away. He slipped out with some bleeding from his arms. He took deep breaths. The Dangers went to him.
Chloe: "Daniel, you O.K?"
Daniel: "Yeah. Don't worry about it."
Daniel gasped as he saw something. Another huge rock came towards them.
Daniel: "MOVE."
He flew in front of them and put his hands out. It hit him and he was knocked back with it crushing him against the wall.
Troy: "DANIEL."
Troy, Chloe and Owen flew towards Trent and Willow. Daniel was pushing on the rock and he got it off him. He took deeper breathes. He was bleeding some more. The Dangers dodged the attacks from Trent and Willow as they got closer. They were about to punch them but then Trent and Willow moved while Trent also touched the ground. Lightning hit the ground. When the Dangers landed, they were electrocuted. Willow was standing on a rock to avoid touching the electrified ground. Trent wasn't effected by it. It went away and the Dangers were on the ground trying to get up but they were knocked out again. Daniel flew towards Trent but Willow sent a huge rock towards him. Daniel got out his sword and tried to hit it but it didn't work. It hit him but before it hit the wall, he jumped to the top and jumped off to avoid getting hit against the wall again. He looked at both of them. Trent raised his hands about to hit him with lightning again and Willow had some rocks going around himself. Daniel then raised his eyes and got an idea. He put his sword away and touched his left arm where his D mark was. He held out his fist and transformed into the Light Danger. He looked at the two of them smiled.
Trent: "Heh. The perfect form for our monster to fight."
Willow: "I don't think I coulda said it better myself."
Daniel: "What?"
Trent: "Willow, you know what to do."
Willow: "Indeed."
Willow raised his hands and a bunch of rocks moved. Daniel got his sword out but instead of heading towards him, the rocks headed towards a table that was at the back of the room where Trent and Willow were. The table was huge and against the wall. Daniel's eyes widened.
Trent: "This is how we killed everyone here."
The rocks on the table were in the shape of a creature. Trent then raised his hand and a lightning bolt hit two poles that were on both sides of the table. The lightning was powering the machines up. The lightning then surged through the table and the rocks began to move on their own. A light was coming from the part of rocks that looked like eyes. Trent put his hand down and the lightning then stopped. There was a moment of silence for a second. Daniel was confused but then he put his sword away and flew towards them. He held up his fist to punch Willow, who was on the left of the table, but then the rocks moved and parts of them lifted up in front of Willow and Daniel smashed into them. He flew backwards and was still in Light Danger form. The rocks moved more. They were alive and were still in the shape of a living creature. It stood up and looked at Daniel with it glowing green eyes. Daniel's mouth dropped.
Willow: "This is our most powerful combo. It's called the Goliath. It's the most powerful thing on this planet. It like what Trent said, we used this monster to kill everyone here. And you and your friends will be next to fall before it's mighty strength."
Daniel: "Grr. Yeah, good luck with that."
He flew towards the creature really fast and made it come apart. Daniel looked at the pile of rocks.
Daniel: "Ha. That all you got? I beat that thing no problem."
Trent: "Heh. Oh I don't think so."
Daniel looked and saw that the eyes were still glowing green. The rocks moved again. Daniel backed away. The Goliath was back to the way it was.
Daniel: "Oh, you've gotta be kidding me. Reconstruction?"
Willow: "Goliath, kill him."
The Goliath walked towards Daniel.
Daniel: "Heh. Don't even try. Nothing can hurt me while I'm in Light Danger form."
The Goliath was in front of him and it raised it's arm to the side and he got his sword and shield. The Goliath swung it's arm and when it hit him, he was knocked to the wall and coughed.
Daniel: "Whoa. What the? What happened? I thought nothing could hurt me while I'm like this."
Trent: "Heh, heh. I guess we just find the thing that can hurt you now. Goliath, keep going until he's dead."
The Goliath walked towards him again. Daniel looked at it. It was in front of him. It raised it's leg to stand on him but then he flew off and it cracked the ground.
Daniel: "No way. How strong is this thing?"
It looked at him and Daniel held his sword tight. He landed on the ground. He turned his sword around and jabbed it into the ground. He flew upwards and flew down to it. The wave of energy came from the sword and headed towards the Goliath. It made it come apart. Daniel pulled his sword out but then the rocks came together again.
Daniel: "Oh, come on. Is there anything that can beat that thing."
He flew towards it and punched it but then it raised it's hand and grabbed his head. He tried to get free. It held out it's other fist. Daniel tried to struggle harder and harder. It then punched him hard in the face. He hit the wall. He took deep breaths and coughed. It then went to him and swung it's leg and hit him in the face and he hit the wall again. Daniel looked at it and it punched him again. It then tossed him towards Trent and Willow. He looked at them.
Willow: "Hmm. I wonder..."
Willow raised his hand and a rock from outside came inside and above Daniel. He looked at it. Willow lowered his hand and the rock dropped onto Daniel but then it moved. Daniel stood up holding it. He dropped.
Daniel: "... Thank you Light Danger strength."
Willow: "Oh well. Worth a shot. Goliath, finish him off."
Daniel was about to punch him but then the Goliath grabbed his arm. He looked at it. He tried to pull free. He put his feet on it and managed to get free. It was about punch him but then he dodged it and it accidently punched Willow. He was knocked back to the wall.
Trent: "WILLOW."
Daniel looked at him and then looked at the Goliath. It began to come apart by itself and the lights in it's eyes were going on and off. Daniel's mouth dropped. He realised what was going on.
Daniel: "That's it."
Trent looked at Daniel and raised his hand. A lightning bolt headed towards Daniel. He dodged it and flew towards him. He dodged more and more and got to him. He punched Trent in the face. The Goliath came apart more when he did.
Daniel: "So that's it, huh? The more I beat you two up, the more it comes apart."
Trent took deep breaths.
Daniel: "In that case..."
He got out his sword and turned it upside down.
Trent: "Goliath, stop him."
The Goliath walked towards Daniel while looking like it was limping. Daniel quickly jammed it into the ground and flew into the air and flew down to it again. The Goliath put out it's hand to grab the sword but then Daniel landed on it and the wave of energy came from it. It headed towards Trent and Willow. It hit them. They were forced against the wall. When it stopped, they dropped to the ground knocked out. Daniel looked at the Goliath. It's eyes went out and the rocks came apart and fell to the ground. Daniel smiled.
Daniel: "Yeah. Alright."
He came out from Light Danger form. He then looked at the Dangers. They got up. They looked at him, Trent and Willow.
Stephanie: "Daniel... you did it."
Daniel: "Actually, I did more than you think."
He pointed to the rocks that were the Goliath. They began to take down the machinery. Later they were on Driforia. They put Trent and Willow in cells and restrained their hands so they can't use their powers. Daniel had some bandages on his chest for when the huge rock crushed him against the wall.
Daniel: "Are you all O.K. after that fight?"
Jason: "Yeah. We'll be fine."
Bella: "We're just glad you're alright after the fight."
Daniel: "Thanks."
He went over to a desk where he left his phone. It was 12:28PM on Earth.
Daniel: "Alright. I'll see you guys another time. I've gotta go."
Stephanie: "O.K. See you later."
Daniel smiled and stuck up his thumb and teleported home.

Four for one

So, this is kind of a long story. This is another Daniel Danger story. But I need to explain a few things first. Firstly, I know I said that the next story I would do was going to be the last one but then I got an idea. You see, the Daniel Danger stories I've made so far, counting the ones that I listed in the Wanted story, are all going to be part of an actual book I'm putting together and I was thinking. So far, counting all the stories I have done that are going to be part of it, I have fourteen stories and I thought that the fifteenth one would be the last story. But after doing some thinking, I thought that the ones I have so far might be a little too small so I thought I was going to raise it up a little so now there's going to be twenty. And I was actually thinking about something else as well. Remember how I've been able to show all of you those photos of those messages the Lion Guard Facebook page has been sending me? Well the way I do that is that I take a picture of it on my phone and then I post it on Facebook on my page then I'm able to copy and paste it on my laptop and that's how I'm able to show all of you. And so maybe when my book's finished, I can do the same. Just take a picture, post it and then show it here. I think that's a good idea. Also, if you haven't already, can you please read my Wanted story. Not a lot of people read it and it is called Wanted. So, if you haven't yet, please read that because you might get confused at a few things in the last story if you don't. And so anyway, this is the newest story and I hope you all like this and please comment when you're done to tell me what you think. So let's start.
It's been one week since Daniel was on Zud with Peter. Now there a fight going on in Tralee between the police and some criminals as they were escaping in a truck after stealing from a bank. There was a driver and three more in the back. They looked a whole bunch of bags of money they just stole. Just then the driver turned and went down a street. The police followed. Just then there was a noise on the roof of the truck where the driver was. He opened the window and looked at the roof as well as he could. Daniel was lying on it with his legs crossed and hands behind his head.
Daniel: "Man, this is an awesome ride. You guys got First Class on this thing?"
Criminal 1: "Oh no. It's Daniel Danger."
Daniel: "(Gasp.) Really? Where? Oh right. Me. Heh. Wow, I'm meeting so many people I'm almost forgetting my own name. Heh, heh. Anyway..."
Daniel got up and ran to the back of the truck and jumped off it while it was still moving and flew above the ground. He put his hands on the back of it and began to pull. The truck was beginning to stop. He then got his sword and jammed it into a wheel. It stopped completely. The police were getting closer. The criminals inside the back of the truck got out and shot at Daniel but he simply took them all out. The driver then got out and got a gun but Daniel did the same to him. The police arrived and took the men and money away. Daniel went back to Youghal. It was early in the morning and Daniel was going out for some air after having just come back from walking his dog. As he was, he got out his glove as there was a noise in his bag. He was at the French Convent at the top of his street. No one was there. He put it on.
Daniel: "Hello?"
Luke: "Daniel, it's Luke."
Daniel: "Hey. What's up? Something going on?"
Luke: "Yeah."
Daniel: "Alright. What is it?"
Luke: "Zane and Jason were looking at the computers in the ship and they found something in space. It looks like some sort of base."
Daniel: "Base?"
Luke: "Yeah. Like a fortress."
Daniel: "A flying fortress? That sounds cool. Wait. What's going on in it. Who's inside?"
Luke: "We don't know. Do you think you can come to help us take a look?"
Daniel: "Sure. Hold on. I'll be right there."
He went home and got the other pieces of his suit. He got into them and flew to the top of the roof of his house and teleported to Driforia. When he arrived, the Dangers were waiting for him in the ship. He joined them.
Daniel: "Hey guys. How're ya doing?"
Stephanie: "Alright. You?"
Daniel: "Fine. So what's this fortress thing you guys were talking about?"
Chloe: "This."
Chloe pointed to the screen. They looked at it as Jason pressed a button. It activated and on the screen appeared a picture of Driforia and next to it was something else that looked like something was coming towards it. It almost looked like a castle.
Daniel: "Whoa. What is that?"
Luke: "It's like I told you. it's some sort of fortress. Kinda like a castle."
Daniel: "I wonder what's going on. And from the looks of it, it almost looks like it's headed right here. We've gotta check this out. Come on."
Troy: "Right."
They left the ship and flew upwards into space. When they stopped, they looked to see if they could spot it but it was no where in sight. Daniel flew further forward a little. He then saw something coming their way. He flew back towards the others.
Daniel: "You guys were right. There is something coming."
Just then something else came from it really fast towards them.
Owen: "What's that?"
Bella: "I don't know but it looks like it's coming towards us and fast."
It got closer.
Zane: "MOVE."
They got out of the way as the object got even closer. It looked like a ship. It went towards Driforia. They followed it. It landed on the ground. The Dangers landed. They looked at it. It opened up. Some rose from inside it. It looked like a robot. It looked at the Danger who were curious as to what was going on. It's head extended a little and in the middle of it was a flashing red light and a noise that was beeping. It then raised it's arm and a blaster came from it. It fired and the Dangers avoided it. It fired again but then Bella got to the side of it with her sword and cut it's head off. It dropped to the ground. The red light turned off. The Dangers looked at it with wide eyes. Just then, in the fortress in space, a creature was moving and looking at a screen looking at the Dangers. On the ground the Dangers were gathered around.
Chloe: "What was that?"
Owen: "I don't know but my guess is that that fortress must have sent it to kill."
Luke: "And what was that flash about?"
Jason: "Maybe it was a signal."
Daniel: "Whatever's going on, we've gotta check it out. Come on, let's go."
They all flew upwards into space again. The fortress looked like a castle with huge rocket thrusters at the bottom that was making it move. They looked at it with wide eyes again. They flew closer as it was still moving towards them. It was ginormous. The front of it was a huge gate which then opened. They looked at it suspiciously. They went slower. Daniel was in front and he slowly looked through the gate. After the gate, there was a walkway that led to wooden door. He carefully put his foot on the ground. Nothing happened. He took some more steps forward.
Daniel: "Alright guys. I think so far, it's safe enough."
The rest of the Dangers landed and they began to walk towards the door. Daniel carefully put his hand on the handle and slowly opened the door. He peaked inside. The first thing to be seen was a hallway with some candle like objects lighting the whole place up. He walked in and the other Dangers followed. There five doorways in the hall. One on the left, one on the right and three at the very front with the centre one being the biggest. They walked through hall quietly going to the centre door at the top. They went up the stairs. They got higher and higher and got to the top. When they did, they saw the creature there. It turned around. The creature was wearing green clothes with a brown cape. The Dangers got a little closer.
Daniel: "Who are you?"
???: "The Dangers I see. Such a pleasure. I am Temple."
Zane: "Temple?"
Temple: "Yes. I see you've found me. It's an honour to have you all on board my vessel. I should make you feel more at home."
Bella: "Shut up. Who are you, what is this place and how is it able to fly with those thruster things?"
Temple: "I see you wish to get straight to the point. Very well. This fortress was built for me by the citizens of my planet. I have been going around the universes in it with my army. The reason it is able to fly is because of four special generators. The citizens put a lot of time and effort into making this."
Daniel: "Sorry buddy, but unless you give us a perfectly good reason, we are going to tear this place apart."
Temple: "Even though I haven't done anything to you?"
Daniel: "I'm sure you're planning something."
Temple: "Heh. Clever lad. But none of you will survive to stop me."
Temple pushed a button on his wrist and when he did, hundreds of robots came from the floor. They looked like the one from earlier and they all raised their arms that had blasters on them again. The Dangers got their swords and shields out.
Temple: "Like I said, it really was a pleasure meeting you once. FIRE."
The robots fired their lasers and the Dangers blocked them.
Daniel: "MOVE IT YOU GUYS."
The Dangers began to run down the stairs again.
Temple: "After them."
Every robot began to chase after them as the Dangers were heading down the stairs. When they got to the bottom, Daniel touched his arm and held out his fist. He transformed into the Light Danger. He took a few steps forward. The robots were coming. He got his sword and zoomed forward towards them and when he came back, all of them exploded. He went back to normal and opened his eyes. Temple was coming down the stairs.
Bella: "What are we going to do? He's coming and this place is getting closer to Driforia. Daniel, what do we do?"
Daniel: "Uh, hold on, let me think... wait..."
He looked around and looked at the four other doorways.
Daniel: "That's it."
Jason: "What?"
Daniel: "That Temple guy said that there were four generators powering this place. I bet that's where those doorways lead."
Zane: "He's onto something. I think you're right. So what? We take them out one by one together?"
Daniel: "No. There's no time for that. We have to split up and destroy them individually. This is how we're going to do it. Jason, you, Zane and Troy go down that one. Stephanie, you, Chloe and Bella go down that one. Luke and Owen, you two go down that one and I'll go that way. Understand?"
All: "Right."
Daniel: "Alright, GO."
All the Dangers ran off and went down the hallways. Daniel went down his one. They all ran through some stairs. Temple got there. He looked around. He looked at the doorway next to the top one he came through on the left which is the one Daniel went through. He began to go down the stairs himself. Daniel was running and flying down countless stairs. He got to a ginormous stairwell. It was dark. He touched the side of his helmet to turn on night vison mode. The way down was enormous. He jumped onto the railing and then dropped down. He continued to fall down until he could see the bottom. He floated in the air and landed on the ground. He saw another doorway and ran through it. Temple then landed on the ground as well but was perfectly alright when he landed. He continued to chase after Daniel. The rest of the Dangers then reached the end of the hallways they were going through. Chloe, Stephanie and Bella reached theirs first. The generator was a huge glass sphere with power inside it. There were robots all around it. The three of them got their swords and shields. They flew towards them. Stephanie flew up towards the generator with her sword. She swung it and hit the generator but nothing happened. The robots looked at her and pointed their blasters at her and fired at her. She flew away but then the blasts hit the generator. They began to break it. It then shattered completely and there was a light. Stephanie, Chloe and Bella looked at it and began to fly away. It then exploded. The castle began to shake. Everyone looked around as it was. It stopped and a bit the castle came apart. Chloe, Bella and Stephanie were at the edge of where the piece of castle they were on was left. The looked at the piece that came off that was drifting in space. Their mouths were open wide. Stephanie got on her communicator.
Stephanie: "Daniel, everyone, we got one generator down."
Owen: "So that's what that shake was?"
Stephanie: "Yeah."
Daniel: "Alright. Good job. Come guys, we've still got three more to destroy."
Jason: "Yeah. Actually, I think we're almost to ours now too."
Stephanie: "And remember this. You have to use the robots blasters to destroy them. Your swords won't do any good."
Daniel: "O.K. Thanks for the info."
Jason, Troy and Zane reached another doorway and through it was the same kind of generator that the Stephanie, Bella and Chloe found.
Troy: "This must be it."
There were robots in front of it.
Zane: "And remember what Stephanie said? We have to use those robot's blasters to destroy it."
Jason: "I think I know what to do."
The three of them went towards the robots who fired at them. Jason had his shield out and was blocking the blasts as he was going towards one of them. He grabbed it and flew upwards. He got to the front of it and the robot aimed it's blaster at him but when it did, Jason moved his head and the robot fired. When it did, the blast hit the generator. Lightning came from it and there was another light. Jason dropped the robot and he, Zane and Troy flew out of the generator room. The generator went crazy and then exploded just like the last one. The castle shook again. More of the castle was coming apart and collapsing. The part of the castle that they were in tore like the last one and came apart completely again. They made it to the edge where the tearing stopped again and watched it float away. They smiled. Zane raised his wrist.
Zane: "Daniel. We got the second one."
Daniel: "Nice one. Now there's just two more. Luke, Owen? Are you close to another one."
Owen: "We can't say for certain but I'm pretty sure we are."
Daniel: "Alright. And everyone? As soon as you have the generators destroyed, started heading for the entrance. As soon as they're all down, we've got to get out of here as fast as possible."
All: "Alright."
Owen and Luke spotted a light in a doorway. They hid behind both sides of it and peaked in. There was the third one. They both looked at each other and nodded. They ran in and waved their arms. Luke: "Over here you idiots. Try to get us."
Owen: "We're right here."
They open fired and the two of them dodged the blasts. They went towards the robots while they were still shooting. They flew into the air towards the generator with the robot's arms following their direction. They flew in front of the generator and flew away again as the robot's blasts got closer to them and hit it. The same thing happened to it like the two others. There was a light and Luke and Owen flew out of there as fast as they could. More and more of the place came apart. More also collapsed. The robots inside the room were destroyed. The part tore off and the only part remaining was a tall tower where Temple originally was and a bit of building at the bottom. Owen and Luke made it to the main hallway and met the other Danger. Luke and Chloe walk to each other.
Luke: "You O.K?"
Chloe: "Yeah. You?"
Luke: "Yeah. Where's Daniel? He not here yet?"
Bella: "No. He must still be trying to find the last generator."
Stephanie: "I hope he's alright."
Troy: "I'm sure he'll be fine."
Owen spoke into his communicator.
Owen: "Daniel? You there? We got rid of the third one."
Daniel: "O.K. I think I'm almost there. All of you get out of here. I'll destroy the last one and get Temple out of here."
Troy: "Where is he anyway?"
Daniel: "One of you check. There's no way he'd just be standing there at the top while we destroy this place."
Zane: "I'm on it."
Zane flew as fast as he could up the centre stairs and got to the top. The room was empty.
Zane: "Daniel, he's not here."
Daniel: "... Then all of you get out of here. I'll find him as soon as I have it destroyed."
Stephanie: "You sure about that Daniel?"
Daniel: "Yeah. Just get out of here and I'll be out of here before you know it."
Stephanie: "Alright. Be careful."
Zane flew to the bottom of the stairs as the top floor was coming down.
Bella: "We've gotta get out of here now."
They flew towards the entrance and flew out. But as Stephanie was about to, she turned around.
Stephanie: "Please be careful Daniel."
She then flew out with the rest. Daniel reached the end of the stairs he was flying down. He saw a doorway and inside was the last generator.
Daniel: "There you are. Just gotta destroy that and this whole place will be destroyed."
He went inside. There weren't any robots.
Daniel: "No robots. But didn't Stephanie say that the robots blasters were the only thing to destroy them? Wait a second. I'm the strongest Danger around. All I've gotta do is just pound that thing until it cracks."
He flew towards it and held up his fist and then punched it. There was a tiny crack. He smiled and did it again. The crack got bigger. He did it over and over and over and the crack was getting bigger and bigger.
Daniel: "One more outta do it."
He held up his right fist and was about to punch it one more time but then something grabbed his arm. He looked at it.
Daniel: "What the?"
The thing then pulled him down and he hit the ground. He stood up and looked forward. Temple was standing near the entrance.
Daniel: "What the? How'd you do that?"
Temple: "Now you know my power."
Temple raised his arms and they extended. Daniel's eyes widened. Temple put his arm back and then put it forward like he was throwing it and his arm headed towards Daniel who flew out of the way. He looked at the generator and flew towards it. Temple's arms went back to normal and then he pointed his arms in Daniel's direction and they extended again. They grabbed Daniel's arms and pulled him towards Temple. Daniel's arms were pushed against his side. He tried to struggle free. Temple's hands tightened and he began to squeeze him. Daniel was finding it hard to struggle. He then managed to widen his arms and got free. He hit the ground and ran to the generator again. Temple looked at him and extended one of his arms. His hand touched the top of Daniel's head and he started pulling him back. Daniel reached for the side of his head and took the helmet off which is what Temple was holding onto. He flew up to the generator and held out his fist. He was about to punch it again but then Temple grabbed his arm. He then used his other hand to grab his chest. Daniel was flying forward trying to reach the generator again. Temple smiled.
Temple: "This place will go on the track I've set it to. And it will crash and destroy Driforia."
Daniel gritted his teeth as he was struggling harder. He was right in front of the generator. He could put his forehead on it. He then gasped and got an idea.
Daniel: "Grr. THIS PLACE IS COMING DOWN."
He put his head back.
Temple: "What are you... Oh no. No. DON'T."
Temple pulled harder but nothing was happening. Daniel then put his head forwards super fast and head-butted the generator. He hit the centre of the crack. It got bigger and bigger and then a light came from it.
Temple: "No. Look at what you've done."
He let go of Daniel who's forehead was bleeding and hit the ground. He painfully got up and put his hand on his head which was sore. They both looked at the generator. Daniel began to run back towards the doorway. He picked up his helmet and put it on the magnet. He ran towards Temple who he kicked in the face to knock him out. He grabbed him and began to fly off as the generator was about to explode. He flew more and more until he got to the main hall. He ran to the gate and then began to fly back down to Driforia. The entire castle came apart completely and then there was a huge explosion that destroyed it all. All the Dangers on Driforia looked up. They smiled.
Owen: "He did it."
Stephanie: "But, where is he."
She raised her wrist.
Stephanie: "Daniel? Daniel, are you there? Are you O.K?"
Daniel: "... Yeah guys... I'm fine."
They looked up and Daniel was flying down to the ground. He landed in front of them. He put Temple down. He was taking deep. He held up his thumb.
Daniel: "Heh. Good job guys."
They looked at his forehead. Later they put Temple in a special cell so he couldn't get out. Daniel also had a bandage on his head.
Daniel: "Hey guys? I've gotta go."
Jason: "O.K. Thanks for the help."
Daniel: "Don't worry. Anytime."
They smiled and Daniel walked forward a little. He pressed some buttons on his teleporter to set coordinates for Youghal. He then teleported away.
