Chapter 8: Talks and too little fights

The remaining one was actually in charge of the Council, as Danny remembered. General How was his name. Oh, well, he was going down just like the rest. Phantom met with the agents, who had been waiting for the man to walk into their trap. And soon he showed up, coming out of the Palace. Danny raised his hand, before swiping it. He was honestly impressed. Now the agents did their work perfectly. Yet again the chains were wrapped around the man in one swift motion.

With roars How tried to break out, and boy, did he have a stamina.

"What's the meaning of this?!" He shouted.

"Coup D'ètat, as we call it," Danny landed in front of him. "I don't think the King is going to need your services anymore. Honestly, I'm out of puns for each one of you."

How pulled some of the Dai Li closer, overpowering the generally slim men. Phantom sighed, still watching the scene.

"Alright, show is over."

His hand glowed with deathly green color. He made a pistol motion and fired a green blast. The Dai Li understood what they had to do and pulled the chains again, steadying the man for a short while. It was more than enough for the small beam to hit the general's head. He stopped resisting, falling on the ground.

"He will wake up soon. Don't waste time and make haste."

The agents did as he told. After all, they knew to whom he would be reporting. Phantom also knew the reason for their effectiveness. As they went down into the sewers, which went into catacombs, Danny crossed his hands, contemplating his next actions. Suddenly he heard something behind the column. Faint sound, but his ears couldn't be fooled that easily. He floated to the place, so as not to make any sounds of his own.

"We have to warn the Earth King!" Danny heard a whisper.

Peeking around, he saw the familiar members of the avatar's team: a boy from Water Tribe and that other, smaller girl, seemingly from the Earth Kingdom, with puffy hair and without shoes. Damn it, that was war, was children fighting there normal...okay, yes, it was. Phantom was fairly confident that the two were going to get disappointed once they got to the king. But they could ruin many things. Warn the guards, for instance. The girl suddenly perked up.

"Sokka. He is not there anymore," she whispered, making Danny grin deviously.

"Good, then we can..."

"He never walked off from there."

"So? I can fly, for your information."

The kids jumped in surprise at the voice above them. Danny didn't give them time, before firing two blue beams. They were pinned to the ground, enclosed in the ice.

"Not again," Sokka groaned, making the half ghost raise his eyebrow. He didn't recall doing this.

Danny sat in front of them, with crossed legs. His expression became thoughtful.

"What are you looking at?" A question from the southern tribe warrior came.

"How inconsiderate it is of me," responded Phantom, tapping on his chin. "How am I supposed to carry you two?"

"This stuff is so tight," Toph grumbled, trying to get out.

"Well, sorry, we don't want you to get out," Danny shrugged. "I guess I can loose the thing a bit," he then murmured.
