Dawn's pov

"Mom and Dad are gone at a ghost convention with Jazz."

I tensed up. I totally forgot about that. Crap! I looked at Tucker with eyes that hopefully read "GET ME OUT OF THIS SITUATION." He just sat there like an idiot. I just ate my burger at supersonic speed and stood up.

"I have to go." I said, and left.

I ran out of the door, and I heard Tucker calling after me. I just needed time to think this through, so I ignored him. When he called me, I left it to voicemail. Same with Danny's and Sam's calls. I only answered when my mom called me. Even then, it was just to tell me to be nice to my brother; all the normal crap. I tried turning back into my ghost half, and when I did, I'm positive the squirrel watching me had a heart attack. I was pretty freaked out myself-I mean, I was freaking half-dead! I was going to go home, when I decided I should try some stuff out. After a couple of trial and error tries, I figured out that I could fly, turn invisible, go through solid objects, and shoot rays out of my hands. Take that science! I decided to do some snooping, so I turned invisible and flew home.

When I got home, I went through the wall (I think Dad called it phasing) and stayed invisible. Danny was talking to Sam and Tucker at the dinner table. I decided to try phasing into someone. Better yet, Tucker. I went right into him, and I could see, hear, and talk through him. He was trying to figure out what happened, but I shushed him.

"I just don't know what came over her!" Danny said, frustrated.

"This really isn't like her." Sam mused.

"Well, I'm sure that whatever it is, she can handle it." I said, as Tucker. I was surprised when they didn't notice the green eyes. Or the actual intelligent thing that came out of Tucker's mouth. Whatever.

"Tucker's right Danny. She's smart-she'll come back home." Sam said, putting a hand on his shoulder. They both blushed, and Sam moved her hand.

Tucker was getting a bit ticked off, so I went out of him. He blinked for a second, and then shook his head. I bet it would be a little weird having to brains in your head. I stayed invisible, but just hovered by the table. It was weird seeing how people would react when you're not around, and this gave me the perfect opportunity.

"It's just so annoying sometimes! I look at her as my little sister, but I know that she's my age. Then she goes and disappears like this…I just feel like I have to be the adult here! And she's not making my life any easier." Danny said.

"It's not like she has an easy life either!" Tucker said, realized what he had said, and covered his mouth.

Danny and Sam looked at him weird. "And how would you know that?" Sam questioned.

"Well…you probably noticed we aren't telling you everything. But, I'm not so sure if she'd want me to tell you." He said, looking at the ground.

"Well what is it? Tell us Tuck! It might give us a clue as to where to find her." Danny said.

"When you locked us in the basement, we were really bored. And I gave her the idea to-"

"TUCKER!" I yelled, becoming visible. "I thought you wouldn't tell them!"

Tucker, Sam and Danny looked at me in shock. Probably all thinking, how long was she standing there? I looked at them, then back at myself.

"Oh…right…" I muttered.

Just then, Danny stood up, still really freaked out. I turned around, about to phase through the wall again, but I got hit in the back with something. I fell to the ground, and blacked out. The last thing I saw was Danny holding a gun pointed at my head.

A/N Yeah, I know it's really short, I have to get ready for yet another Christmas party...I've had one almost everyday this week and they're getting old. I know its more of a filler chapter...mainly for the explanation of her powers and junk. I hope it has the desired amount of cliff-hangeriness for you guys...it took a lot of time to do...I'm also trying to type up more fanfics for Code Lyoko, Harry Potter, and another Danny Phantom fic. So, don't hate me for the shortness!

PEACE, LYOKO, AND SMILIES ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE DOUBLE RAINBOW, I'm signing off. -tries to disappear in a cloud of purple smoke- *cough cough* Let me try that again. Peace, lyoko, smilies across the double rainbow, I'm signing off...-lightbulb appears above author head- AHA! -flies off in Phantom form-
