Danny Phantom: Devil's Chord

By: Hordak's Pupil

Sam

"Let me go!" I shout trying pry his hand off my arm, "I'm warning you that my boyfriend will not stand for this," he turned around looking like rabid animal. He said that he will never see me again. "What do you mean?" I asked as a lump formed in my throat.

"I have eluded capture for centuries. You honestly think I am afraid of a 20 year old who walks through walls?" His eyes glared with all fires of Hell. "You shall be my bride and we shall make music," he drew me close to him. "Nothing shall keep us....," I scratched him hoping he'd let me go. His skin felt weird and it then that I saw something behind it. The fake skin peeled away as he howled in pain.

The skin had been flayed off his face revealing sinew and bone. His left eye fell out of its socket showing the empty blackness. "You....," I tried to speak but that sight before was too much. He asked me if I loved him. "I...," he grabbed me by the neck and told me to agree to join my soul to his. He grabbed my hand again saying we hadn't much time.

Danny

"SAM! SAM CAN YOU HEAR ME!" I called out about to phase through the wall when I heard someone enter the room. Standing in the door was a police officer in a trench coat. He asked what I was looking for. "My girlfriend, she was kidnapped," I showed him the text she sent me. "We have to find him before this Faustmann hurts her."

"That's not his name Mr. Fenton," he said as I glared at him. I asked how he knew who I was. He told he me was trained to see through disguises. Like the one this Faustmann creep uses, "his name is Erik Destler," I looked at him strangely. "Claudius Faustmann is just a ploy so he can hide about among the people." I had heard that name before.

I was at Clockwork's tower when I saw a book about the Devil. It said in 1877 there was rash of murders at the London opera house. The culprit was believed to be a musician name Destler; he had wanted to become the greatest composer ever and even sold his soul to the Devil to achieve this. The deal didn't turn out very well as Satan mutilated his face so no one could love him for him.

"You have to be mistaken," I tell the officer, "Destler has to be long dead. Maybe he's a descendant of the original." he told me not to be stupid. "Okay but what does he want with Sam?" he told that at the center of the 1877 was a young soprano, Christine Daay. He had fallen madly in love with her. Faustmann thinks that Sam is Christine reincarnated

 

"Come, Fenton, we must hurry," he felt around the mirror until he found a button. The glass swing away revealing a winding staircase.  "We have no time to waste," he walks on to the steps and me beckons me to do the same.

Erik

"Where are we?" the girl asked as I led into my parlor. I told her she was home, "you live here?" where would have me Christine in the brightly lit streets in the light that can never possess. I sat down at the organ and began to play my music.

"Sing once more for me," I told her as she looked at me confused, "SING!" she said she didn't know French or  how to sing opera. "Maybe a trade is in order," I got up. I hated having to resort this; it wasn't supposed to be this way.  She was to love me and finally free me from my curse. Why did she have to resist?

I took out my knife and held it against her throat. "Your voice or your life choose carefully Christine," she looked at me saying her name is not Christine. "you WILL be Christine. Now sing," she gulped and picked up the Libretto.

"Ah! Jey rise...," NO NO NO, "look I am trying my best I told I don't speak French...," I silenced her as I heard something upstairs. It was no doubt that Damn officer and the boy coming to rescue but they will wish they never came here.

Captain Hawkins

"Stand back," I told the youth as I poked the ground with my walking stick. The floor gave way revealing a large pit filled with water. "you must always be aware of your surroundings," he asked me how I knew it was there. "My family has tracked this madman for years, I was trained to know his tricks and traps. The bomb shelter was a perfect hiding place for him."

My great grandfather tracked him during the Opera murders. He had hoped that was the end of Destler but somehow he survived. Since then my family has sworn to hunt him down no matter what- even if we have to follow him into the bowels of Hell.

"I think I found something," Fenton says pushing a wall back. "Maybe it's a short cut," he walked into the passage. I went to grab him but before I could the wall slid back in place separating us. This boy  will be end of me.

Danny

“Sam are you in here,” I call out using ectoplasm to light my way. The walls were covered in mirrors. I heard what sounded like laughter. “Who’s there?” a voice welcomed me to my death. I demanded for Destler to show himself.

“Such a brave child, tell me Phantom what would you like to be on grave stone?” I charged up an ectoblast and fired it in the direction the monster was in. “I hope you can hold your breath,” I looked down and saw my feet fastened to the floor. I heard a rushing sound like…water. “I am a fair man my little boy, I will gladly let Christine go in exchange for your life,” I tried to free myself as the water went above my knees. “Tick tock tick tock.” I tried to phase out but something was blocking my powers. “Time is running out little Daniel.”

“Do I have your word?” I ask him waiting for an answer. “Did you hear me?” he growled and said it is not wise to test his patience. “Well?” the water stopped. I waited for him to drain the rest and release me. “Hello?”

Sam

“You’re lover cares for you,” Faustmann said watching Danny via a webcam. I asked him what he is going to do with him. “It depends” I reminded that he promised to take my place so I could go free. “That’s the thing- I never keep my word. Oaths are for the birds.”

He walks over to me and chains me to the stone wall, “What are you doing?” he said that he wasn’t dumb and knows I will make a getaway or try to warn Danny and wants me to stay put.

“Don’t worry my love,” he said going to back to the organ and began playing. “I so love Mozart’s Requiem,” he began to sing in Latin but something got his attention. “It seems we have another visitor,” a man in trench coat rushes in the room. “Welcome Captain, I was wondering when you would show up.”

The man took out a gun and pointed a gun, “Let her go Destler or I swear to God that I will shoot you.” My captor laughed saying his swearing will do no good as God does not exist down here. He looked at a table and rushed to pick something up but ‘Destler’ kicked him in the stomach.

“Your idiot great grandfather couldn’t stop me. What makes you think you can succeed?” the man shot Destler in the chest sending him to the ground. “Damn you Hawkins,” while he was distracted he goes over to the controls and releases Danny. “You are so foolish,” Destler said as he rose unharmed by the bullet. “Prepare to join your grandfather in Hell!”

Danny

“DESTLER!” I shouted phasing out of my bindings and flew up to where he was. There was nothing just a webcam. “Damn!” I flew back out to the stairs when I heard shots ring out. “SAM!” I hope I am not too late.

I zoomed down and found a door. I tried to open it but it was locked- time to do it the Danny Phantom way. I phased through it and found Destler and Hawkins in battle. “Good bye Captai…,” I blasted him in the chest sending him flying. “YOU!” I sent another ectoblast at him.

“Danny! The music you must destroy his…,” before he could finish Destler rammed a pole through him. He smiled and told him to just to ‘hang.’ I rushed over to the desk, Erik tried to stop me but I blasted him again then rushed over and blasted his computer.

“It’s over,” I tell him using this distraction to grab the music from the table. I use my powers to burn the manuscript. He cried out in pain as his body disintegrated like Dracula. I raced over to Sam and freed her. “Are you okay?” she nods and runs out the door. “I’ll be there soon.”

“Fenton….,” Hawkins said as I raced over to him and got out my cellphone. “It won’t do no good…my time is come,” with those words he closed his eye and breathed his last. I hope your family can enter Heaven now that Destler is destroyed.

I raced out to where Sam was and embraced her. “I knew you would do it,” she kissed me on the lips. I told her that I would never let anything happen to her. “Come on hero let’s go back the dorms,” she said as we left the evil place and entered the world of the living again.

 

                                       

 

I completed my DP/RE Phantom of the Opera crossover. I hope you all enjoy it and remember- only love and music are forever!
