Hello my readers! This idea was suggested by TheNinjaKitty13! Danny was supposed to be gone leaving Sam and Tucker to have some bonding time with Jack by helping him with his invention! Anyway, I do not own Danny Phantom...sadly. However, I hope you enjoy this one-shot. If I have enough demands to make it a two-shot then it will become such but until then... On last thing, I would like to inform you that I now have a Quotev account. My name is the same but everything on there will be original so if you have any suggestions for orginial one-shots or DP one-shots PM me. Enjoy!


Paralyzing Truths

"Hey, Danny! Come check out this new invention I am working on down in the lab!" Jack exclaimed happily as soon as he saw Danny enter the kitchen with Maddie.

Jack, honey, Danny is going to the store with me to pick out some new clothes." Maddie reminded the man as she grabbed her purse and car keys.

"What's wrong with the clothes I have?" Danny argued as if nothing was wrong with his overused clothes.

"They are old, plus you wear that shirt all the time. You're starting to look like a cartoon character!" Maddie exclaimed before sending Danny a look that let him know that there was no way of getting out of going to the store with her.

"But I invited Sam and Tucker over!" Danny retaliated with a slight whine in his voice. He knew he was losing the argument.

"They can hang out with Jack until we get back. This shouldn't take long." Maddie countered the teen as she half-led, half-pushed him out of the door.

Shrugging, Jack went down into the lab to work on his invention. Jazz was at the library and now his wife and son were out of the house too. It was strange not hearing other voices in the house but Jack didn't mind. It let him focus on his invention. However, he didn't have the house to himself long. The door clicked, alerting Jack that someone entered the lab but he was too engrossed in his project to listen.

"Hey Mr. Fenton, Have you seen Danny?" the spooky-ooky-bat-girl, her name Jack vaguely remembered to be Sam, asked.

"He went with Maddie but they should be back soon. In the mean time, come help me with my invention as I blabber on about ghosts!" Jack stated.

Sam and Tucker knew that there was no way to get out of the man's offer. He just won't take no for an answer. However, Sam and Tucker didn't fight it that hard for it gave them the opportunity to find out how this invention worked just incase Danny stated acting funny.

"So, what does this invention do?" Tucker asked, grabbing the blueprints. It was in the shape of a firearm like most of Mr. Fenton's inventions. However, this particular one was designed more like a stun gun.

"It's supposed to paralyze the spook for interrogation. In addition to this, I'm making a switch that works like a truth ray so the ghost can only tell the truth!" Jack exclaimed happily as he dived into the matter of seeing if Phantom was telling the truth or not. He wanted to prove that the spook was lying and present it to the public. This was the only way to ensure that the citizens in AmityPark believed them, allowing Maddie and him to dissect Phantom without a fuss. On the other hand, Maddie wanted to see if Phantom knew about his genetic makeup to see what makes him so different but Jack was more interested in tearing the ghost apart.

Tucker and Sam exchanged a look that said "uh oh." Danny's secret would be known if he ever got shot with the weapon and Sam would bet her money that it was designed for Phantom. Glancing over to see the test subject, a small ghost that took on the form of a blob, Sam smiled. Knowing Mr. Fenton, he would probably mess up a few things with the invention and it wouldn't work.

"How long is the ghost paralyzed?" Sam asked just incase it worked and Danny was shot with it.

"The spook stays paralyzed until I shoot him again." Jack answered the question as he was finishing the wiring.

"Oh, you mixed up those two wires." Tucker pointed out, showing the man which ones they were. Thanking the teen, Jack fixed the two wires and continued on.

"Don't help him Tucker! He'll use it against Danny!" Sam hissed, her face twisted in a scowl as she punched her friend.

"Ow!" Tucker yelped, though Jack seemed oblivious to the noise. "Sorry…," he muttered, rubbing his arm. The two teens stepped back and observed the man as he did his thing.

Meanwhile, Maddie attempted to get Danny to buy a different colored shirt. Somehow, after a few years from purchasing the white and red shirt, Danny seemed to love so much, they still had them for sale. Stocking up on these shirts, and a few different ones Maddie talked him in to, they left the store. Luckily, purchasing pants went by smoothly. I had taken about an hour and a half in the store to get everything but Maddie didn't mind. Most of that time was waiting for Danyn to get out of the dressing to Maddie, He had to keep leaving to fight off ghosts.

"Danny-boy! My new invention is finished!" Jack exclaimed before Sam interrupted him. Maddie and Danny had walked into the kitchen only momemts ago and they were already being bombarded with Jack's invention.

"I named it." She told the young hybrid, giving him a pointed look.

Clueless as always, Danny didn't understand. Face palming, Sam stepped away from the big man and stood next to Danny with Tucker who followed suit.

"It's called the Fenton Paralyzing Truth Ray!" Jack said as he pointed the gun at Danny without realizing it. "This baby paralyzes the spook and also forces him to tell the truth. It's great tool to prove that Phantom is just lying so then I can rip him apart molecule-by-molecule!" He failed to see Danny visually pale at the remark along with his friends slowly stepping in front of him as if to guard the teen.

"Jack, we are supposed to interrogate him. The public would be outraged if they found out their so-called 'hero' was torn apart. However, that's not a bad idea." Maddie clapped her hands together with excitement.

Suddenly, the Fenton Paralyzing Truth Ray went off, missing Sam and Tucker, shooting Danny in the chest. Unable to move, Danny could only move his eyes, which were now wide with fear.

"Oh, crud." Sam and Tucker muttered in sync.
