The Ghost Tiger growled viciously but before it could do anything Danny sucked into his thermos. He then capped the thermos and finally bent his knees to rest. His two best friends a goth and a techno geek came running up to him.
"Nice work Danny." Sam, the goth, smiled at him.
"Yeah." Danny said as he stood upright. "I..." But he was cut off as a blue net caught him and dragged him away.
"Danny!" Screamed his friends.
Danny sighed as he looked up at his captor, it was the self proclaimed "Greatest Hunter", Skulker. Danny rolled his eyes, this ghost used machines as well as ghost powers during the "hunt" yet he still couldn't bring down a fourteen year old boy. Honestly, in Danny's opinion, it shouldn't be that hard to accomplish. He was a kid for crying out loud.
Here's another thing about Skulker, he never ghost proofed his nets, Danny could always phase out of them. And that's what Danny did, he disappeared from the net and flew behind Skulker. Danny aimed the thermos at the ghost's back and sucked him in as well.
His friends joined him as he hovered over the ground. "Jeez Danny, where are all these ghosts coming from?" Tucker asked, even though he knew his ghostly friend had no clue.
"I don't know, but at least they seem a little out of it tonight." Danny said as he landed on the ground next to Sam." And guys this is a new record, a whole night without any injuries."
But just as Danny finished that sentence he was flung into a wall by a red energy blast. "Do you think he spoke to soon?" Tucker asked jokingly but Sam wasn't amused.
"Don't worry kids I have saved you from the ghost boy." Came a triumphant voice, that belonged to a man in a gray suit that held a large weapon similar to the Fenton Bazooka.
"Are you crazy you didn't save us!" Sam yelled noticing Danny had changed back.
Sam made up a lie quick, as she ran over to the unconscious Danny and was followed by Tucker. "Does this look like the ghost boy to you?!" She screamed at the man who began to approach them.
He blinked as he noticed the boy lying against the wall had black hair, not white, and was wearing a white shirt and blue jeans, not a black and white jump suit. That couldn't be possible, he'd seen the ghost boy with his own eyes. There was no mistaking a specter from a human.
He watched as the Sam touched Danny's forehead worriedly and then grabbed his wrist as she checked for a pulse. Her eyes held so much concern, but she shot a death glare at the man who was watching her. Tucker dialed a number and stood off to the side staring at his friends.
"You." She growled. "What did you hit him with?"
"It, it was an energy blast." He stuttered, but he noticed she wanted more from him." I don't know what it does to humans."
Tucker hung up his phone and kneeled alongside the goth who had her hands on the unconscious boy's shoulders. She shook Danny gently. "Danny can you hear me?"
The man just stood a few feet in front of them, full of confusion and worry. He hadn't meant to hurt the boy at all. A few minutes passed with Sam trying to rouse Danny and checking his pulse regular while Tucker watched ready for anything, and then all three of them heard a screeching sound of tires.
A car came into view with a teenager speeding towards them, she hit her brakes and skidded to a stop only a few inches away from the confused Ghost Hunter. Jazz leaped from her car and joined Danny's two friends and helped them load the boy into the car and sped off.
The man pulled out a pen and jotted down the license plate number. He had to find the family to explain himself. The man walked jogged over to his motorcycle and leaped on it trying to catch up with the kids. When he finally followed them home he stopped in disbelief at the house they arrived at.
"Fenton? That was the Fenton boy? Little Danny?" The man asked aloud as he pulled off his helmet. He walked to the front door and rang the doorbell.
Jack Fenton stumbled towards the door and opened it, he already looked panicked. He stared at the man for a few seconds then realized who he was. "Stan? Is that you?" Jack asked.
"Yeah Jack it is. Look can I come in?"
"Well now's not really a good time..." Jack began.
"I know," Stan interrupted," Maybe I can help."
Jack let the man in. Stan could hear a woman speaking softly to someone, and then a louder shriller female voice erupted. It sounded to him like the goth girl.
Jack let Stan follow him into the living room where a figure lie on the couch surrounded by, the teen driver, the dark skinned boy, the goth girl, and a woman he recognized as Maddie. He guessed the driver was a little girl named Jazz he'd met a while back. Maddie caught sight of Stan and looked at him.
"Stan? What are you doing here?" Maddie asked.
Stan motioned towards Danny on the couch. "That's why."
"What do you mean?" Maddie asked standing up from her kneeling position.
"That's the idiot I told you about." Spat the teen in black.
"Sam please calm down." Maddie sighed, "They told me a man shot Danny thinking he was a ghost. It was you?"
Stan shrugged, "Yeah I guess so. But I swear it was an accident. I think it's my contacts they've been messing around with my eyes." He half lied. He could see perfectly fine he didn't even have glasses.
"What did it do to him?" Jack asked standing behind the couch and looked down at his son.
"I don't know. It's never been used on humans." Stan answered.
"Do you have it?" Maddie questioned.
"Well yeah it's outside, I could go get it." Stan offered, but before he could turn to retrieve it Danny began to stir.
First he coughed like he'd been choking then he shot upright with his eyes open. "What's going on?" He asked looking around.
"Danny you're ok." Jazz cried immediately wrapping him in a hug.
Danny groaned and rubbed his head. "What hit me?" He mumbled.
"Sorry kid that was me." Stan said moving forward. "You ok?"
"Yeah, I think so. Just kind of tired. And who are you?" Danny said looking at the man.
"Danny this is Stanley Wheeler, you met him years ago. His an old friend and fellow ghost hunter." Jack said.
Danny studied the man's face, and he realized he did look somewhat familiar. Even Jazz could recognize him now that her parents pointed it out.
"Yeah I remember you." Jazz said, "But that was like what eight years ago?"
"Yeah just about. Listen Danny are you going to be alright?" Asked Stan.
"Yeah I just really want to go to sleep." Danny sighed, he tried to get up but feel back down on the couch.
"Here why I don't I take you to bed son." Jack offered.
Danny really didn't want to be carried by his father to bed, but what choice did he have? He accepted and was brought to his room. Jack laid him down and asked again if he'd be alright. After a sleepy nod, Jack left and rejoined the rest of the people down stairs. Jazz offered to take Tucker and Sam home.
"So Stan, do you have place to stay?" Maddie asked.
"Well I was planning on checking back into the hotel downtown, since my time there is up."
"Nonsense, you can stay with us. We have a guest bedroom right next to Danny's room." Maddie said.
"Yeah." Jack added. "Besides we have so many new things to show you about ghosts."
"Well, I guess so, I can show you some of my new inventions as well." Stan agreed. "But I don't want to be a burden..."
"Don't be silly." The woman laughed, "You're always welcome here."
-------------------------------
Stan finally settled into the guest bedroom, he could tell already that the sweet girl he knew as Jazz didn't trust him at all. But it was an accident, why was she so over protective of her brother? It didn't make sense to him at all.
Then he thought of Danny, he had no idea why a ghost weapon would effect a person like that. If anything he sort of expected it to kill a person, surely the amount of energy searing through a body that scrawny would shut down the boy's vitals. But it didn't, and that's what bothered him.
'How did you survive that Danny? There must be repercussions to the Ghost Ray, it was too powerful. But what does this mean will happen?' Stan thought restlessly.
Then he remembered when Jack and Maddie showed him the Ghost Portal.
"How'd you get that to work?" Stan asked.
"Well we don't know exactly, Danny accidentally set it off months ago." Maddie answered.
"Yeah, apparently it sent a shock through him, but that boy's tough." Jack said.
'A shock?' Stan thought, he didn't understand it, 'Even if he was as tough as they claimed there has still got to be some sort of backlash to what I hit him with. But what will it be? And will I be able to stop it?'
Stan's thoughts were interrupted by a scream coming from the room next to him. There was no doubt it was Danny. 'Well I think I'm about to find out what's going to happen.'
And with that Stan leaped up to find out what was happening in the other room.
yeah so this one sort of came to me, I have a vague idea where this is going. Tell me if it sucked, tell me if it was good. I'm a little unsure if I will keep it. We'll see.
