Danny and Vlad are not half-ghost in this story
ENJOY
It was a quiet morning, Danny Fenton opened one of his scrapbooks and sketched a butterfly that was on display in a jar. After finishing it, he opened the window and allowed the butterfly to go free. Today he was wearing a suit, because he was about to leave for a rehearsal because tomorrow he was getting married to Samantha Manson, daughter of Pamela and Jeremy Manson. Their marriage was arranged but the two had been best friends since they were kids, but now they are eighteen it was a surprise that their parents had agreed with each other that they would become husband and wife.
His parents were Jack and Maddie Fenton, owners of Fenton Works but they were known to Amity Park as the local ghost hunters. The town itself was a pretty quiet town, not a lot happened. Suddenly a man with grey hair tied back in a pony-tail and wearing a black business suit walked into town, his name was Vlad Masters.
"Ten minutes till Fenton's wedding rehearsal!" A man announced throughout the streets.
That caught his attention, he watched as a man named George got into a taxi and drove over to Fenton Works. The front door to the house opened to reveal a woman wearing a blue hazmat suit and a large man wearing an orange hazmat suit with a yellow tie, they were Jack and Maddie Fenton.
MADDIE
It's a beautiful day
JACK
It's a rather nice day
MADDIE
A day for a glorious wedding
JACK
A rehearsal my dear, to be perfectly clear
MADDIE
A rehearsal for a glorious wedding
JACK
Assuming nothing happens that we don't really know
MADDIE
That nothing unexpected interferes with the show
BOTH
And that's why everything
Every last little thing
Every single tiny microscopic little thing must go
They both got into the taxi feeling really excited for the rehearsal.
According to plan To the costume balls
Our son will be married
According to plan
Our family carried
Elevated to the heights of society
In the hallowed halls
Rubbing elbows with the finest
Having crumpets with Her Highness
We'll be there, we'll be seen
Having tea with the queen
We'll forget everything
That we've ever, ever been
"Danny! Come on! We're gonna be late!" Maddie called.
On the other side of town, Pamela and Jeremy Manson weren't exactly happy about this wedding, especially since their own daughter will be married off to the son of the local ghost hunters. But they also know is they don't exactly have a choice.
PAMELA
It's a terrible day
JEREMY
Now don't be that way
PAMELA
It's a terrible day for a wedding
JEREMY
It's a sad, sad state of affairs we're in
PAMELA
That has led to this ominous wedding
BOTH
How could our family have come to this?
To marry off our daughter to the nouveau riche
They're so common
So coarse
Oh it couldn't be worse
Jeremy shook his head and went over to the family safe that was hidden behind a painting, he opened it and showed his wife to remind them that they were broke.
JEREMY
Couldn't be worse? I'm afraid I disagree
They could be land-rich, bankrupt aristocracy
Without a penny to their name
Just like you, and me
"Oh dear" Pamela said shaking her head as well.
The painting was then placed back over the safe and hidden once more.
BOTH
And that's why everything According to plan
Every last little thing
Every single tiny microscopic little thing must go
Our daughter will wed
According to plan
Our family led
From the depths of deepest poverty
They walked along the hall and then stopped in front of a picture of their daughter Samantha Manson. She preferred to be called Sam, she had short black hair, often wore black gothic clothes and make-up but other than that she was a very beautiful young lady.
To the noble realm
Of our ancestry
And who'd have guessed in a million years
That our daughter with a face
Of an otter in disgrace
Would provide our ticket to a rightful place
Sam was just getting dressed to go to the rehearsal, she looked at herself in the mirror and felt worried and nervous at the same time. She liked Danny as a friend, but as a husband? Part of her liked the idea because she secretly had a crush on him, but she didn't know whether or not he felt the same way.
"What if Danny and I don't love each other?" Sam asked herself.
"Ha! As if that has anything to do with marriage! You two will grow to love each other or at least you become fond of each other. Now hurry up and get ready" Pamela said.
Danny walked out of the house and hopped in the taxi, George then started the car and began driving to the Manson home.
"Are you okay sweetie? You seem nervous" Maddie asked.
"I'm okay mum. I just feel that maybe Sam might be better off marrying the boy Gregor or something" Danny answered.
"Nonsense son! You two have been best friends since you were kids. You like this girl don't you?" Jack asked.
"Yes but I don't know if she feels the same way I do. I rarely spoke to her since this marriage had been arranged" Danny said.
"Sweetie if I know Sam, I can tell you she definitely feels the same way you do about her" Maddie said.
They both heard coughing coming from George up the front. Maddie asked, "George are you okay?"
"I'll be alright Mrs Fenton" George answered.
Five minutes later, the taxi stopped in front of the house and they all got out. Inside Pamela and Jeremy walked down the stairs and headed towards the front door to be ready to greet the Fenton's.
PAMELA
Marriage is a partnership
A little tit for tat
You'd think a lifetime watching us
Might have taught her that
Might have taught her that
They got out of the taxi, Maddie quickly straightened Danny's tie up and then pulled him up the stairs and rang the doorbell.
THE FENTON'S AND THE MANSON'S
Everything must be perfect
Everything must be perfect
Everything must be perfect perfect
That's why everything
Every last little thing
Every single tiny microscopic little thing must go
According to plan
