Dawn's pov
Danny and I have always been really close…sibling-wise that is. Jazz ends up pissing us off at the same time with that whole "I'm older than you" gag, but then we just prank her, and the world goes on. You see, Danny and I are twins, and I THANK GOD that we're not identical. We don't share a room because last time I checked, I'm a girl. Danny and I almost never see each other at home, because we hang out enough at school. Sam and I are really good friends, and Tucker and Danny are real best friends.
Danny obviously likes Sam, and Sam obviously likes Danny, but neither of them will admit it. Oh, the joys of being 14. Apparently, Sam thinks that Tucker likes me, and Danny thinks that I like Tucker, so I try to avoid the situation as much as possible. Every time someone mentions a boy to me, I blush. Stupid hormones.
Today, Sam and Danny locked Tucker and I down in the laboratory. I heard them say that they were going to the Nasty Burger and were going to come and unlock the door in 2 hours.
"This sucks." I said, leaning against the wall.
"At least your parents don't have a boring basement." He said. We both laughed, and he started looking at the new Fenton portal. "What's this?"
"Oh that? It's something that my parents are working on. It's supposed to be a portal to the ghost zone, but when they tried to plug it in, it didn't work."
"Why don't you try to fix it?"
"You know, I've always wanted to see what's in there…"
"Now you can! Come on-and I'll videotape it."
"Tucker!"
"Pretend like I'm not even here. Now, go."
I absolutely hate those HAZMAT suits, so I just went in with my normal jeans and t-shirt on. I tripped over some sort of cable, and I had to put my hand on the side of the wall. Unfortunately, my hand just happened to fall on the part of the wall with the ON button.
"AHH!" I screamed. I was thrown out of the portal, and I blacked out.
Tucker's pov
OK. The girl of my dreams walked into a ghost portal, pushed a button, got thrown out of that very same portal (that still didn't work), and now looks all weird. She's pale, her hair is now white with black streaks, and her clothes changed. She's wearing a white vest over a black shirt, black jeans, and white boots. AND I GOT THIS ALL ON VIDEO. Dawn was SO gonna kill me for this. As soon as I got over the shock of her kinda flying to the back of the room, I went and shook her awake.
Dawn's pov
I woke up with Tucker shaking me.
"Hey! Chill out! Stop shaking me! God, Tucker, I'm fine." I stressed the fine, and brushed him off of me.
"I wouldn't call this fine…" He said, looking at me.
"What wouldn't be fine? I'm still the same. It's not like I died or anything, right?" I joked. "Dude, you're as pale as a ghost. What happened?"
Instead of answering me, he held up a mirror. Instead of my blue eyes staring back at me, they were neon green. I barely recognized the person in the mirror. I looked at Tucker who was looking at me with his very rare thinking face on.
"What are you thinking of?"
"Well, you're a ghost…"
"Yeah, and…"
"And your parents are ghost hunters…"
"OH CRAP! My parents are gonna split me apart molecule by molecule!" I yelled. As soon as I said that, two blue rings appeared out of nowhere, and I turned back to normal. "Sweet."
"Totally."
"We have to keep this a secret." I said.
"Do we have to?" He whined. I punched him in the shoulder.
"Yes, we have to. Now come on, maybe I can blast a hole through the wall, or maybe just walk through it." I said, going back to Phantom.
"O…kay…"
"Come on you wimp!" I said, laughing. I walked up the stairs with Tuck in tow, and tried to go through it. I turned invisible and simply walked right into the door. I was holding Tucker's hand, so we both went through. I turned back to normal.
"That is awesome!" Tucker said.
"Yeah, I guess. I wonder what else I can do…"
"Never mind that right now. We can figure it out later. Let's get some food. I'm starving!"
"When are you never hungry?"
"Umm…"
"Don't answer that. Come on, I'm hungry too." I said, and with that we walked to Nasty Burger.
Sam's pov
Danny and I were eating at Nasty Burger; he had a burger and I had a piece of bread with grass on it. He and I were talking about what Tucker and Dawn would probably be doing right now.
"Tucker would probably be whining about food." Danny said.
"Yeah, then Dawn would offer him a knuckle sandwich." I joked. We both laughed, and then Danny pretty much choked on his food. "What's up Danny?" I followed his gaze and saw what he was staring at. Dawn. And Tucker. At Nasty Burger.
"You didn't unlock the door did you?" I asked.
"No, did you?"
"No!"
The two of them slid into the seats next to us.
"Hey guys. Thanks for you know, locking us in the basement." Dawn said, sarcastically. She took a big bite out of her burger.
"Yeah, speaking of which, how did you get out of there?" I asked.
"Well, you see-OW!" Tucker started. He sounded like he was going to launch into a huge story, but something hit him. He glared at Dawn, who just glared back. I'm guessing she kicked him under the table. "Well…you see…Dawn's parents came down and let us out." He said, trying to cover something up.
"What really happened?" I asked Dawn.
"That happened. He was complaining about food, I punched him in the arm, and my parents came down and let us out." She said, inspecting her burger as if it were the most interesting thing in the world.
"Dawn…" Danny said.
"Yeah…" She said, not looking up.
"Mom and Dad are gone at a ghost convention with Jazz."
She tensed up. Apparently she forgot about that.
