So this is my second crack at a DPxKP story. I though of maybe doing a sequel to my first one, but I just didn't like it after awhile. Anyway I took a few ideas from my first one and built on them. I honestly think this one turned out much better. For KP this occurs just before senior year after StD movie. For DP no PP. Please enjoy.=^-^=

Ch. 1 - Middleton Haunting

"So who's going to be staying here for two weeks? Some intern?" Kim asked as she sat back in the couch while her brothers worked on some weird new machine.

"No, but he will be helping at the Space Center while we do our Junior Space Cadet program. Actually he's going to be a senior this year just like you Kimi-cub." Dr. Possible explained as he looked at his watch. "He'll be here any time now, so I want you all to make sure you treat him like a member of the family while he's here."

"Only if he tells good ghost stories." Tim countered with a grin. "Yeah, what's the point of living in Amity Park if he can't tell a good ghost story?" His brother agreed.

"Your point tweebs? He's probably a science geek so why would he care about ghosts?" She then paused to look at her frowning father. "Uh, no offense dad."

"Amity Park's the most haunted town in America." "Duh." They pointed out as if she were clueless. "Besides, he's a C student." "He probably just needs padding for his college application." They finished as Tim turned the machine over to plug it in.

"And how exactly would you know that boys? Maybe some unauthorized looks at my files?"

Both boys wore sheepish expressions in response though before anything more could be said the doorbell rang. This was instantly followed by a loud snap and the lights around the house flickering. "Whoa!" Both boys exclaimed at once as their machine smoked up after the lights stopped.

"Seriously Tweebs?" Kim scolded as she stood up from the couch to get away from the smoke.

"But we checked the wiring." "We double checked the wiring." Tim corrected as he held up the fried plug.

"Dear, Daniel is here!" Dr. Possible heard his wife call as she lead their guest down the hall. She and the teen entered the living room just as the boys were hauling out what was left of their project, and Dr. Possible had a fire extinguisher in hand.

"Don't worry honey, it was only smoke this time." James assured as he turned to his guest. "And Daniel, it's great to see you again."

"Hey Dr. Possible... uh, what happened?" Danny asked as he looked at the charred carpet and the boys leaving.

"Just the boys working on their latest invention. Anyway," He began as he set the extinguisher down. "How's my favorite Junior Space Cadet?" He asked playfully as he took the tall teen into a headlock. It looked slightly awkward since Danny was a little taller.

"Quit it Dr. Possible." Danny protested playfully. Kim raised a curious brow at her dad's suddenly childish demeanor, and the strange boy who seemed to cause it.

James released him and pat him on the shoulder. "I suppose I have too since you've apparently doubled in height since your days as a Junior Space Cadet huh? You're huge."

Danny raised a hand to the back of his neck. "Yeah well I'd hope I wasn't still as short as I was when I was 10." He was now a tall if not lanky 17 year old fresh out of Junior year in high school.

"Speaking of which, I found all the old Cadet photos. I even found that one from the first Rocket Boosters open house when you got stuck in the antigravity room."

Kim rubbed her chin at the familiar incident. "Wait a minute... I think I remember that."

"It's kind of hard to forget since that first open house was almost the last because of it." James explained with a jovial tone. "I still don't know how you got in there."

Danny simply shrugged. "Can't help you there. I don't remember."

"Ah, well regardless things worked out in the end. Hopefully we won't have that problem again?" He teased with a jab at the teen. "Got enough of those as it is." He muttered at the end as he left the room.

"And here I thought you were a complete stranger." Kim began as she let out a hand.

"You're not too far off." Danny countered as he accepted the gesture.

"Kim Possible, and the two boys were my brothers Jim and Tim." She explained with a slightly annoyed tone. "Feel free to ignore them Daniel."

"Thanks, but I prefer Danny."

"So what made you want to mentor at the station?" She asked though it was a pretty interesting place to be let alone work.

Danny raised a hand to the back of his neck. "Uh well actually, I really needed help with improving my college application and my sister told me mentorships were a great way to get noticed."

"I suppose it's not the worst reason-"

"Now don't get me wrong." Danny suddenly interrupted. "That's not the only reason. I never expected to be able to work with Dr. Possible at the space center of all places. I really couldn't think of a better way to spend the summer when I was a kid." When he started going on about rockets and space she couldn't help sighing at the irony that both she and her brothers were right.

"Alright everyone, dinner's ready!"

Kim sat on her bed with her phone in hand. "So you up for helping me show him around tomorrow? He doesn't need to be at the Space Center until 3."

"No problem KP. I'm thinking some snackage at Bueno Nacho would be the perfect introduction to Middleton."

Kim raised a brow. "Uh Ron Bueno Nacho has locations all over the country not just Middleton."

"Yes but ours is uniquely Middleton Kim. He needs to experience the special bond between restaurant and the customers who dine there. There is no bond like it on earth!" He announced with an almost disturbing passion.

She rolled her eyes and sighed knowing he wouldn't change his mind. "Fine lunch at Bueno Nacho, but I don't foresee any stunning spiritual awakenings when he sees how you and Rufus eat."

"I suppose I wasn't exactly wrong.." Kim muttered as she watched Danny eat his third naco with only slightly more self restraint than Ron usually did.

"I told you man it is the best."

Danny nodded as he took the time to swallow. "This great! I wish we had one of these in Amity Park. I've never even heard of a Naco before." He explained before eating more.

"That's cause I invented it. There was mad love for the naco." (Oh yeah) Rufus agreed as he burped in satisfaction.

"One question though," He began as he watched the rodent unwrap another burrito. "I've never heard of a place that let a rodent eat in it."

Ron traded a glance with Rufus but they both shrugged. "Rufus is not your average naked mole rat my friend."

Rufus ate the burrito in 3 bites and Danny had to agree. "Yeah, you're probably right there."

"It is kind of surprising to find out you really haven't had Bueno Nacho before. I suppose I take it for granted since there's been one in almost every city I've been to." Kim pointed out as she picked up her drink.

"Yeah, but all things considered, it's not like companies are scrambling to move to Amity Park." Danny explained as he took the last bite of his naco.

"Oh right, it's the most haunted town in the country." Kim recalled with obvious disbelief.

"Whoa, wait a minute. Haunted? As in ghosts?" Ron asked for clarification.

Danny simply nodded as he swallowed. "Right, a real ghost town." Kim rolled her eyes. "Come on Ron."

Ron looked at her and then to Danny. "But he is from Amity Park Kim, and as much as I hate to believe anything my cousin tells me, she says its haunted too!"

Kim furrowed her brow before realizing something. "You're talking about the cousin that you swear would kill you if left alone same room in the right? The one who is always trying to scare you?"

Ron nodded with a fearful expression. "And what's worse she may be coming to visit this summer... Maybe even next week..." He shuttered and Rufus mimicked the motion.

"But you haven't seen her in how long?"

"Not since sophomore year, but that doesn't matter Kim. She is still evil." He insisted as he took a nacho and dunked it in cheese.

"Then how would you know?"

Ron gave her a deadpan expression. "Oh I know. For my last birthday she sent me a book of evil curses."

Kim rolled her eyes. "I told you Ron that book was in Latin. How could you not know that after forcing me to take Latin with you?" Kim countered in slight exasperation. "She probably knew you were going to take it."

Ron raised a brow. "Or did she? It was right after that I lost my voice for a week."

"That was because you decided to stay up all night practicing your mad dog growl for the first game of the season." She countered again. Ron didn't look like he was about to change his mind so she just gave up and let him be. "Fine whatever." Just before Ron could go over more of why he was right a familiar tone rang out. Kim pulled out her Kimmunicator. "What's the sitch Wade?"

He could see she was exasperated and quickly went into why he called. "There was another incident at the Space Center, but I doubt the authorities will be able to do much about this one."

Kim raised a brow. "What happened?"

Wade looked at his computer. "Well according to this report two scientists are stuck inside one of the wind tunnels. The crazy part? The controls are frozen, literally. There was no sign of forced entry or of anything being stolen either just like before."

Kim got up. "Alright this time I'm definitely going. Come on Ron." She then paused and turned back to the confused Danny. "Oh right... We're going to the Space Center anyway."

Upon arriving at the Space Center Kim and Ron quickly made their way to the scene while Danny was asked to stay in the lobby. That of course didn't happen since he slipped away as soon as they were gone. He easily found a place to transform before flying through the halls invisibly. "Alright now if I remember right the wind tunnels should be-" He turned a corner and was right where he needed to be. Several scientists were working at getting the controls to thaw which was surprisingly difficult.

Kim and Ron were at the door preparing to go in with a tether line to pull the scientists pinned to wall by the wind. "Hmmm..." He thought about what had caused it as he flew closer until a familiar bout of cold air cut him off. "Figures." He muttered though someone nearby turned to him, and was baffled to see no one. Danny flew up to the control panel and lightly grazed the frozen keys with his fingers. He thought over the familiar feel that could only be ghost generated ice. "I need a way to get those guys out without getting noticed." He whispered ever so quietly. The last thing he needed was to be behind mysterious happenings in this town too. He looked over the ice again and it hit him. He flew into the tunnel, but was blown instantly back by the force. He flew with all he could to get to the fan before realizing he could just go intangible. "Of course I forget. It's not like I've had these powers for years or anything." He muttered to himself though it was drowned out by the sound. He was over the fan in seconds and began to slowly freeze it over with his ice powers.

Ron and Kim finally broke into the tunnel just in time to catch the falling scientists who were no longer pinned under enough wind power to keep them up. A minute later and the fan was stalled under an icy sheet, and teens were helping the men out. "Whoa, good thing that fan stopped." Ron stated as he held up one of the men. "I guess whatever froze the control panel got the fan too."

"Yeah..." Kim agreed warily as she looked to the fan. When she first saw it, the fan showed no signs of slowing.

"Thanks for the help Kimi, but where did you leave Danny?" Her father asked as his two colleges were taken by the medical team.

"Oh he's waiting in the lobby. We didn't think there would be much point in bringing him here."

Meanwhile Danny had arrived back in the lobby, and was on the phone with a certain goth. "Yeah I know and was really hoping this wouldn't involve ghosts." He groaned to his girlfriend.

"I told you not to get your hopes up Danny. Ghosts follow you around like lost puppies."

Danny chuckled. "More like angry demented puppies in most cases."

Sam chuckled back. "True, but those are easier to find right. Just let me know if you need help. I'll grab Tucker and we can be in Middleton before you know it."

Danny nodded as he noticed Dr. Possible, Ron, and Kim coming into the lobby. "Yeah once I know more I'll keep you posted. Love you."

"Likewise ghost boy." She responded before she hung up and he stood up.

"Sorry about the wait Danny, but everything's fine now. I'd like to show you around some of the labs we'll be visiting with the Cadets if you're ready."

"Are you kidding? Of course I am." He responded enthusiastically.

"Hey dad please let us know if something else weird happens."

"Will do Kimi-cub." He pulled his coat up while his daughter blushed at the nickname. "Alright Danny let's go." They started down the hall and Dr. Possible handed him an ID card. "This is your ticket into the building in case I'm not with you. You'll have access to only certain areas, so don't go exploring too much. Most of the time you'll be with me anyway."

Danny nodded. "Sure, but uh... What was that all about anyway? Something been happening here?"

Dr. Possible nodded. "Uh I suppose it would be better to tell you just in case. There have been a few 'incidents' lately involving certain parts of the lab. They've put serious time constrains on one of our recent projects, but you shouldn't worry too much. No one has gotten hurt... uh well not seriously, and today was the first injury though I've been told Dr. Lyle and Gunderson will be fine after some rest."

"So even with these 'incidents' the camp is still going on?" The halfa asked rather curiously. Most places shut down at the first hint of danger.

"Yes, but like I said before, this is the first injury, and we won't be taking the kids into very many parts of the lab. This is a day camp so they'll only be here 7 hours at most." He explained with a calm expression. "We're quite capable of dealing with crisis here. We once had the place attacked by ninja monkeys you know."

Danny stopped at that and couldn't decided whether to laugh, be freaked out, or to even believe it. "Wow... I suppose a frozen Wind Tunnel isn't really much to worry about in comparison..."

"Nope. Now why don't I show you our testing lab? We've got a few prototype rockets you might want to see."

Danny's eyes widened. "Really? Awesome!"

"I thought you'd like that."

So there's the first chapter. I hope ya'll liked it, and there will be more. I can't give any solid date of when I update this, but it shouldn't take long. It'll probably be faster with some encouragement 'hint hint'. As always reviews, comments and questions are welcome!=^-^=
