This is based off of an idea that I read Butch had before deciding that a ghost powered teen would be cooler. Here's to hoping that this is a good story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dimension Crisis
Chapter 1: Goodbye Amity, Hello Destruction!

Sam's POV

We were doing all right that night; after all, we did catch four ghosts (not including the Box Ghost, who we caught like five times). I put the cap on the thermos before handing it to Danny. He pushed his white hair out of his eyes before he smiled at me and took it. Tucker was typing something on his PDA, and I was curious as to what could be more important than making sure Amity Park was okay.

"Er… Tuck? What're ya doing?" I guess I wasn't the only one. Danny's emerald eyes had a confused look in them when he asked.

"Tallying all the ghosts we've caught," Tucker said simply.

"And you're doing this…why?" I couldn't stop myself. Tucker was sometimes a little more trouble than he's worth. But only a little.

"To see exactly how annoying Danny's enemies are. I only started this last week, and you wouldn't believe the numbers," he answered as he lowered the device. Danny floated over to him as I walked over.

"So what're the numbers?" I asked, curious. Tucker pushed his glasses up on his nose before tapping the PDA again.

"Well… we've caught Skulker 12 times, Ember four times, Kitty and Johnny thirteen times," Tucker smirked at the irony a little, "and the Box Ghost 60 times."

"Sixty?" Danny looked at the screen over Tucker's shoulder.

"Okay, so I exaggerated a little. It was only 59 times," Then said ghost flew by intangible with his signature 'Beware!" Danny looked at his thermos, probably wondering how the Box Ghost got out of it again.

"Maybe I should ask Mom and Dad if they can figure out what's wrong with it…" he muttered before going after the little blue man.

It only took him two minutes before Danny was back.

"Now it's sixty times," he smirked. Tucker tapped the PDA screen again to fix the tally. I laughed at Danny's smile. It was always so nice to see him smile, but right then it looked kinda goofy. I put my hand over my mouth to stifle the sound, but I know Danny heard me anyways. That was just how his powers worked. And anyway, if he couldn't hear far away voices and sounds, how would he know when someone's in trouble?

I glanced at my watch.

"We should be getting home. It's really late," I remember saying. Danny's eyes suddenly widened as he looked behind me. I could feel the open space behind me, which wasn't there a moment ago, and when I moved my hand I expected for it to brush against the stack of boxes that was sitting next to me. It wasn't there anymore. Then something smooth and a little slimy curled itself around my wrist.

I'm not proud of it, but I screamed.

I looked at the something, but it didn't have a real form. Other than the tentacle that it had used to grab my arm, it was just a blob of black coloring. With really pointy teeth. Stretched into a toothy grin. At me.

I just stood there in shock for a moment, but the thing tugged me closer to it, bringing me back to my senses.

"Let me go!" I yelled as I tried to kick it. My boot went through the blob's 'arm'. I gritted my teeth. Then, a green ball of energy hit the tentacle. It let go of me as I felt a pair of very cold arms wrap themselves around my stomach.

Danny pulled me away from the black blob as it seemed to almost cradle its burnt arm.

"What is that?" I muttered. It didn't seem like a ghost. It wouldn't have caught Danny by surprise if it was a ghost anyway. I didn't see his ghost sense go off, so it was safe to say that it wasn't a ghost. Not that there was anything safe or good about it, anyway. We always have to have to save the town, anyway. And I'm just gonna hafta guess that we've gotten a new enemy that Danny somehow managed to tick off without knowing. Happens all the time, so I'm not surprised.

"I don't know," he said, putting me down, away from the blob. He turned around to face the black blob and probably ready to kick its creepy butt back to wherever it came from. His hand glowed green like it always does and fired it at the thing. It screamed and grew a new arm to swing around, flailing both tentacles and successfully hitting Danny, throwing him into a wall. He slid down and held his head.

I guess I was distracted. All of a sudden, the tentacles wrapped around me and pushed me against the wall. Danny looked up at me and I saw him gasp. He floated a little before speeding towards me.

"Sam!!" The world seemed to fade for a moment before everything was pulled away. And I mean pulled away. It was like the warehouse we were at was sucked up into a wormhole, or a Fenton Thermos, leaving me behind. Or was I leaving it?

Danny's POV

"Sam!!" I screamed as one of my best friends was sucked into a swirling vortex of doom. Wow, I didn't know I knew what those words meant. Gah, I need to stop being around The Box Ghost. The whole 'doom' thing is startin' to rub off on me.

Anyway, I flew as fast as I could to her, but she just…vanished. That black blob had something to do with it, I just know it. That and…it disappeared too. I shoulda guessed that it was a distraction, since it didn't set off my ghost sense. I mean, sure it wasn't a ghost, but it was still a little off, you know, just by appearing like that out of nowhere.

I reached the spot that Sam was at last, but there wasn't anything there. I punched the wall, leaving a nice little crater in the six-to-ten inch wall of steel.

"Dude, calm down," I heard Tucker say slowly behind me, "We'll find a way to get her back, like we always do." I couldn't deny that he was right. Even Tucker had his smart moments. And right now, I needed the comfort.

"We need to find out who did this, Tuck. Sam could be anywhere and we're not getting anything done like this," I said, panicking. I turned to my best friend, who had a thoughtful look on his face. What the heck was he so smug about?! If he was happy about Sam getting kidnapped, he was going to—!

"Anywhere, or anywhen?" Tucker challenged, disrupting my thoughts of possibly killing him.

"Anywhen?" I know I cocked my head. It didn't make any sense. What did time have to—Oh, now I get it!

"Clockwork?" I questioned softly. Tuck nodded, looking slightly relieved. He didn't really think I was stupid did he? Well, "do you really think he can help with this kind of thing?"

"What can't he help us with? He bends all the rules for ya, so saving Sam shouldn't be any different. And anyway, what 'kind of thing' is it? I thought you didn't know what it was." Danny opened his outh to say something he'd probably refret later, but then he smiled, knowing Tucker was right\.

"Alright. To the Ghost Zone we go."

3rd person POV

"Hey, what've we found here?"

"Captain! We found a live one!"

Sam managed to open her eyes when the voices rang out. They were too loud and hurt her ears a little. It was dark, so she couldn't see the faces. Just the eyes. Normal, human, brown eyes. At least the person standing over her had brown eyes. She couldn't see anyone else's. At least until the 'Captain' stood over her. He had blue eyes. Danny's blue eyes. Just without the light that she loved.

"She's alive alright. Get her some medical help and bring her with us." The man ordered. He had Danny's voice. Just harsher, colder, more...troubled. Could it be...?

'Danny?'

Review please!!!!
