Family Guy's Extra Special Road Trip (Season 1)

Episode 4: Road to Ghost Hell

Chapter 1: And What's the Deal with Ghosts?

Episode Summary: Danny Phantom and his family think that his ghostly enemies, such as Skulker, or Ember, are tough to handle. But...they haven't met the Griffins yet. When they meet up, they all take an instant liking to each other, and Danny sees this as a much needed break from his constant ghost fighting. But, when Peter accidentally destroys one of Danny's statues (from Phantom Planet), he vows to do whatever it takes to fix without breaking anything else. But whatever Peter says he'll do, he always does the opposite. Meanwhile, when Elliot, Sam's former lover, comes back into town, he tries to get Danny framed for a bank robbery and to convince Sam that Danny's no good for her. So now, it's up to him, with Brian's help, to clear his name. And, Jack races around town desperately trying to get adoption papers for Danielle finalized. But nowhere he goes seems to want to help him out.

It seems today that all you see
Is violence in movies and sex on TV

But where are those good old fashioned values
On which we used to rely!

Lucky there's a Family Guy!
Lucky there's a man who positively can do
All the things that make us

Laugh and Cry

He's...A...Fam...ily...Guy...!


Our story today begins with the Griffin family once again on the road, continuing their year-long road trip to explore the world and have awesome adventures! (Remember, an awesome adveture to Peter is a trip to the mental clinic for someone else.)

Now, everyone in the Griffin family was still very angry at Peter for his horrifying and terrifying actions in South Park (Read my last two fanfictions). Although Peter wasn't arrested as originally planned, he did have to pay a fine of $500,000. Though in a surprising twist, Carter Pewterschmidt, his father-in-law, offered to pay Peter's fine for him. Although as a price, Peter had to swim in a fish tank filled with a monkey's feces, and then drink some of it. But that was then and this is now. Anyway,

They drove up to another seemingly quiet town. It was called "Amity Park" and all was quiet for the moment. But, with Peter around, nothing was ever quiet.

"Oh boy, oh boy, this is great! I love road trips! Another day, another town-"

"Another patient checks into a mental hospital." Brian joked, getting laughs from everyone except Peter. Peter simply glared at Brian and then went up to punch him in the face.

"Oh that's real funny. Laugh it up."

"Well, Peter, let's face it. The last place we were at, you almost put a 9 year old boy in the morgue."

"So? What the hell does a morgue have to do with anything? Jeez, you people are worse at conversations than I am at building things."

(Cue Cutaway)

We cutaway to Peter hammering away at a piece of board. However, he hammers so quickly he accidentally hits his own thumb. He lets out a scream and starts sucking his thumb.

(End Cutaway)

Peter parked the car in the driveway of their new home, which was just across from the home known as "Fentonworks", the home of our other set of main characters today. The family all got out of their car, and unloaded their things.

Once they got settled into their home, unpacked their stuff, and broke the new home in, Peter and Lois went outside to see the house across from them.

"Hey Lois, check it out." Peter pointed out the sign. "Fentonworks. Huh, if I didn't know any better, I'd say this was a Jew factory. But then again, I don't see any Oompa Loompas or chocolate or Amanda Bynes, so--"

"Peter, I think you're thinking of "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory"."

"Lois, you're delusional. Everyone knows the Muslims don't believe in chocolate."

Frustrated and angry, Lois gave up, not wanting to start a fight with Peter. The two of them crossed the street and started heading towards "Fentonworks". Unfortunately, they had no idea of who in God's name lived across from them.

The Fenton Family: A family full of ghost hunting freaks. Literally. The two parents, Maddie and Jack Fenton, are "experts" in ghost hunting and ghost hunting accessories. The reason you see quotes around the word expert is because...well, let's face it, everything they have done...with few exceptions...have sucked. They really have.

The oldest daughter, Jazz, is a very intelligent young girl who is preparing to go to college. She had spent most of her time studying, but since she found out a dark secret about her brother, Danny, she spent her spare time helping her family fight ghosts.

And finally, the young boy, Danny. He is a 15-year old boy who, thanks to a freak accident caused by a invention of his parents', he became half-dead, thus becoming half-ghost. Now with new ghost abilities, he spent his spare time with his two best friends, Tucker Foley, a techno-geek (nerd), and Sam Manson, a goth girl who recently became his girlfriend, fighting ghosts and keeping Amity Park safe. Originally, nobody but those two and Jazz knew about his secret. But, after he saved the planet from certain doom, he decided to reveal his secret and allow the rest of the world to know who he was. And ever since then, he's been accepted by everyone, and now he, and his family, including his "soon to be adopted" sister, Danielle (Kindred Spirits, D-Stabilized) live in peace in Amity Park. Or at least, as peaceful as it gets.

A/N: I'm still keeping the idea of Danielle being adopted from the original "Road to Ghost Hell" story. But remember, I never finished it, so that leaves this story open for new plotlines.

Peter and Lois went up to the door, and rang the doorbell once. "Boy, if there's one thing I hate about new neighbors, is if they're Morman. I hate Morman people! They're so retarded!"

"Peter, that's not nice. You shouldn't make fun of the Mormans like that. What if these people reallly are Morman?"

"Well I have the solution." Peter replied pulling out a vodka bottle from his back pocket. "Vodka."

"Peter, not everything can be solved with vodka. Remember the time you tried to help Joe raise money for his daughter's medical bills and you sold lemonade where your secret ingredient was "Vodka"?"

"Uh, I will have you know we sold drinks to 283 children that day."

"Yes, and the next day you got complaints from all 283 children's parents."

"And your point is?" As Peter reached out to ring the doorbell without actually looking, as if on cue, a green net swooped down from above the door and caught Peter, and then a few seconds later, as if on cue again, eletricuted Peter hard. For several seconds, the electricution went on, and Peter was left with scars and burns on all parts of his body. He wasn't badly injured; though it did take his blood-wrenched screams for the Fenton family to know that someone was out there.

"Quick, Maddie! Get the ghost bazooka!" The fat father, Jack yelled to his family as he rushed outside and prepared a giant bazooka to fire at him. He didn't even notice that it was a fat guy in the net. "Ghost! Ghost!"

"What the hell, man!? Is this how you treat your daughters!?"

"My daughters? But I only have one daughter."

"No way, your daughters' names are Stephanie, DJ, and Michelle. Aren't you Bob Saget from Full House?"

"No."

"Oh." Jack, Peter, and Lois all stood there silently for a short moment before the rest of Jack's family came out from his house and the rest of Peter's family came out of their house. Brian, Chris, Meg, and Stewie took a quick look at Peter before turning their attention to the family that was standing before them.

"Um, I'm gonna take a wild guess here. Hunters, right?" Brian asked, referencing the bazooka in Jack's hand.

"Yep. Ghost hunters. We're the Fenton's. WOrld's best ghost hunters."

"Um, ghosts do not exist, buddy." Lois said, having absolutely no idea who these people are.

"Yes they do. We spend most of our time hunting them down, and then draining them of their ecto-energy."

"Uh, no they don't, sister. I don't know where you've been this whole time, but they haven't existed since the beginning of tiem, and I'm sure as hell they don't exist now." Lois snorted, and then laughed smugly, not knowing what she was getting into.

"Yeah they do! Even I've been helping my parents and my brother hunt ghosts!" Jazz defended, but Lois wouldn't hear it.

"Oh no, not you too! They brainwashed you into thinking they're real too when they're not!"

"But-"

"tell you what!" Lois pulled out a vile of poison and held it up so everyone could see. "I'll drink this entire vile of poison right here...right now. Just show me that these "ghosts" that you speak of actually exist!" During Lois's ranting, the two little Fenton kids, Danny Fenton, age 14, and Danielle, age 12, floated down in their ghost form behind Lois, having heard everything that she had said. They were now very pissed off.

"Why don't you look behind you!?" Danny shouted, which took Lois aback slightly. She thought she was hearing things. But when she heard very angry breathing coming from behind her, she decided to turn around and get a look at it. She saw the two ghost children floating behind her, and instead of screaming for her life, she instead took the vile and drank it all up, and then slowly proceeded home, scarred for life. Chris and Peter both exchanged confused looks at each other.

"Dad, I'm scared. Why are the ghosts of Renee Williams and Ozzy Osbourne here to haunt us?"

"I don't know, son. But aren't you supposed to be really fat?" Peter asked Danielle, very clueless as to who they are. Danielle took offense to this.

"Yeah, and where's your heroin needles, Mr. Osbourne?" Chris asked Danny, also very clueless.

"Danny, I'm scared. Who are these people?" Danielle asked Danny.

"I don't know. Are you people new to the town?"

"Why yes we are. How nice of you to notice." Peter sheepishgly grinned, then turned his focus to whisper to Chris, only he instead leaned towards Danny. "I think these people might be rednecks. If they start spitting tobacco and other nasty crap, we'll make a run for it."

"Dude, you just whispered that to me."

"Shh, shh. Here he is! Wow, you look so good in those black jeans!"

"What?" Danny and Danielle were getting more confused and annoyed with everything Peter was saying. So they floated to the ground and reverted to their normal human form. "What are you talking about?"

"Oh I"m so sorry. I get really excited when I met a celebrity. You are Tim McGraw, right?"

"No."

"And this little twerp right next to you isn't Rihanna?"

"Uh, no!"

"Oh." Peter quickly turned to Jack Fenton. "What the hell is going on around here!?" He shouted, hoping for some answers, as was everyone else.

"I understand this is kind of weird to hear, but it's the truth. You see-"


We're sorry. Due to technical issues and circumstances beyond our control, the portion of the script where Jack Fenton explains Danny's story to the Griffin family was lost on the way overseas. Luckily, the Asian animators did manage to fix a scene long enough to fit into the timeslot. So now, ladies and gentlemen, please enjoy this portion of Peter Griffin crashing the stock market.

(Cue Cutaway)

We cutaway to a western farm, where a hill-billy plane pilot and Peter Griffin are in an argument about something.

"Look, explain to me exactly what I did wrong."

"You crashed the stock market, that's what you did! Because of you, stocks plunged! Home morgage rates went down, oil levels are at a 200-year low, and I haven't seen this many people homeless since the Civil War!" The farmer angrily pointed to a plane that ha dcrashed into a homeless shelter. Ironically, the plane was named "The Stock Market", and on board were signs that detailed home porgage prices, oil spilled all over the plane and the people, and by "homeless people" the farmer was actually referring to the people that were in the homeless shelter.

"So? What's the problem?"

"You idiot! Because of you, our eceonomy is as good as dead!"

"Wait, you have a money system named after Dick Van Dyke?"

"Ugh!"

(End Cutaway)

Thank you. We now return you to your scheduled programming.


Ironically enough, instead of telling the story of Danny Phantom while the cutaway was in play, Jack and the family instead watched it with the Griffins, which is why they were a bit irritable when it was finished.

"Um, hello?" Peter called out to Jack, waving a hand in front of him which did get his attention.

"Uh, what?"

"The story? You were gonna tell us why your two kids have risen from the dead as Dick Cheney and that Farrah chick?"

"Huh? Oh yes, the origin of Danny Phantom. Right, fo course. Anyway, it all started when Maddie and I--"

"Boring! I'm gonna go explore the town." And with that, Peter calmly turned around and started walking into town, ignoring everyone else's pleas. Stewie couldn't help but groan and cup his forehead. Danny and Danielle took notice to this.

"What's wrong, kid?"

"He does this everytime, I swear it. We move into a new town, he gets excited, goes in, and by the end of the first day, he breaks something. One of us is going to end up dead by the end of this episode, and I'm not talking about that bastard in the orange parka! 'Cause, you know, he dies all the time."

"OH come on, kid. You don't know that."

"Yes. I do." Stewie grinded his teeth. "It happens every. Single. Time. The only time he didn't cause trouble was...well, actually, I can't really recall a time hwre he didn't cause trouble. So, by estimates given on the size of this town, we'll be seeing either policemen, firemen, or paramedics in...."

All of a sudden, to everyone except Stewie's shock, paramedics, firemen, and policemen started charging down the road towards where Peter took off to.

"...zero seconds."

Meanwhile, deep into Amity Park, near City Hall, it turns out that Peter had just broken one of Danny's hero statues while he was trying to...well, he was either trying to build a moat around it or some kind of wall. Either way, both it and the statue broke. Peter wasn't being arrested, but he was being questioned on the spot. The family ran up to Peter to see what the trouble was.

"Look, nothig's wrong, Lois. I-I just read a sign that said this statue was very important to the city. It's supposed to remember those who were lost in some sort of tragedy, you know, like Spetember 11th. So I decided 'Hey, if this statue's important, why the hell is it just laying around like this? Why isn't it protected?' So I decided to build a wall of protection around it so it can forever be preserved. But while I was doing so, I saw the cutest little butterfly passing by so I admire it and then I accidentally droped my hammer on the wall so it broke and the toppling blocks caused the statue to break as well..." He took in a deep gasp for air. "..And here we are now."

Brian stared at Peter for a brief moment as if he was staring into space. "Peter you were only gone 10 seconds. How the hell could all of that possibly have happened?"

"Sir, we're going to need you to come with us to the police station for some questioning." The police officer said, as he escorted Peter to the police car without handcuffing him.

"Oh come on! How the hell am I in trouble! Jeez, you people are eve more annoying than the Jonas Brothers were at that Comic Con I went to for them?"

(Cue Cutaway)

We cutaway to a Jonas Brothers convention where the Jonas Brothers are having a Q & A session with the audience members, which Peter was one of. He raised his hand and was called on by Kevin Jonas.

"Uh, yes. I have a question for the guy on the left," Which was Nick Jonas. "W-Where's your cigarette and heroin needle?"

"I'm sorry?"

"I mean, I know you're trying to get clean and all that, but I mean, you can't just stop altogether. That'll mess you up, dude. You should still at least take one needle everyday.

"What? Wha--oh for the love of--For the last time, we are not Ozzy Osbourne! Kevin Jonas is not Ozzy Osbourne! Joe Jonas is not Ozzy Osbourne. I am not Ozzy Osbourne."

"Yes you are."

"No they're." The real Ozzy Osbourne said, standing up from the audience. "I am. And you know nothing of my work."

"Aren't you Keith Ledger from Terminator Salvation?"

"D'oh!"

(End Cutaway)

End of Chapter 1!

Well there you go. You got the basic idea. It should be a good story. ANd Iit may be about 5-6 chapters depending on how much story I want to put into a single chapter. I've having a lot of exams coming up in school, and home-life's stressful as always, so updates may not be as quick.

Next Time: Danny's being framed! For a crime he didn't commit! Plus, Jack races around town trying to get Danielle officially adopted, but no one wants to help him.

Expected Update: June 18th.
