Sadly, I don't own Danny Phantom.

"So did you see the email the school sent out to all of the parents?" questioned Sam to Danny and Tucker as they played video games on a warm Sunday afternoon.

"No, what's it about?" asked Tucker, while still engrossed in his game.

"The school is adding some new anti-ghost security, it will be completely installed on Monday" the Goth teen answered.

Danny immediately paled and he sat frozen in shock. Danny's pause allowed Tucker to win the game and he immediately jumped up and started doing a victory dance. "Eh em," coughed Sam as she gestured to their half-ghost friend.

"Oh, sorry," apologized Tucker.

"Don't worry about it," smiled Sam as she put a calming hand on Danny's shoulder, "You've faced ghost weapons from your parents, Skulker, and even Valerie. I'm sure you can handle a bit of school security."

Danny began to get out of his shock. "And besides," added Tucker, "I can disable any device."

"Your guys are right," Danny sighed, "but there's still one thing that bothers me."

"What?" the other two friends asked in unison.

Danny gazed at the TV screen before saying, "Tucker beat me at this game!"

The three friends walked to school together the following Monday. "So what do you think the new security will be?" asked Danny.

"Something minor, like anti-ghost bars at every window," replied Sam.

"Nah," Tucker said, "ghosts could just go through the walls. I think it will be more like a ghost shield that Danny's human form can get through."

"Whatever it is I'll just have to be more careful," Danny shrugged.

However, when the three friends made their way towards the front steps of Casper high they all stopped and stared horrified at the sight that was before them. Lined all around the school, was a bush made of Blood Blossoms.

"No," whispered Danny and he repeatedly muttered, "no" while he buried his head in his hands, his entire body already starting to tingle by just being near it.

"Uh, I can't disable that," spoke Tucker.

"Yes we can," scolded Sam, "Come on; we're having an early lunch."

They sprinted towards the bush and frantically started eating the blossoms. "Ms. Manson and Mr. Foley, what are you doing?" shouted Mr. Lancer as he walked out to round up the dawdling students.

"Uh, we heard they're edible," responded Tucker in a way that sounded more like a question.

"That's the new security, I don't want to catch you eating it again, now get inside."

The two friends began to walk inside, but before they got through the door they glanced back at Danny giving him a sympathetic look. "And you Mr. Fenton," Mr. Lancer shouted to Danny who was shaking with fear, "get inside."

When the balding teacher noticed that Danny wasn't moving he walked over and began to drag him in. "Please don't!" he cried as he stared in terror at the school that lay before him.

As soon as Danny was dragged past the bushes he let out a blood curdling scream. "School is not that bad, Mr. Fenton," Mr. Lancer said without even turning around.

If the teacher had turned around he would have seen Danny's muscles tensing up and tears prick at the corners of his eyes. In fact, Mr. Lancer might have even seen a faint red smoke rising from the student. But Mr. Lancer didn't turn around.
