See, I told you I would be back soon. I decided not to make the chapters so long, that way I can go back and make edits easier. Like I stated before, there may be double sentences for some reason or another- so please let me know if you find them as well. I do go back and read but I just happen to miss some, I'm only human.

Just a song I'm listening to while writing... Superhero by Simon Curtis

"Ah! Sweet sweet relief." I say to myself as I run the sink water. I dry my hands with the towel hanging on the mirror and leave my bathroom.

I need to get back to figuring out who those two guys are, but so far I'm having no luck. I open my door quietly, as to not wake up mom or dad who are sleeping next door.

I walk over to my computer which is my only light source at the moment. I'm about to sit down and continue my research when I feel another presence in my room. I slowly turn around.

"Whoa!" I jump, startled by the shadowy figure sitting on my bed. The figure doesn't react to my outburst so I quietly reach on my desk for something to use as a weapon. I grab an item that feels hard enough~ though it feels a tad small.

I use my free hand to find the light switch and count to three.

"1...2..." I flick the light on, close my eyes and shout "3!", flailing the item around as I run over to the bed.

"Tucker! It's me!" I hear Danny's annoyed voice call out.

I open my eyes to find Danny with my... tape dispenser... in fazed his head.

"Oops, sorry!" I apologize, pulling the item back and tossing it aside. I'm about to ask why he was here when I notice fresh tear stains on his cheeks.

"Dude, what's wrong?" I ask, sitting next to him. I now notice he is shirtless, revealing all his battle scars and bruises. His shoulders are hunched over and I see his eyes drooping- like he is fighting sleep.

I wait for Danny to start talking, not wanting to rush him. Luckily, he starts talking rather quickly.

"Turns out those ghost hunters are friends of my parents and now they're staying at our house for who knows how long. Then Skulker showed up and I had to get away before I could hunt him down." He informs me, moving his attention to anywhere but me. "He got a few good hits in before cutting me with his knife. At first I thought he laced it with some sort of poison or something because it took longer to heal than normal."

"That's odd, some kind of ghost poison maybe? But it did heal? I don't see any fresh cuts." I ask examining his battle scars.

He nods and continues. "Not right away- though it did hurt like hell. But the thing is after I defeated Skulker I heard Sam and Dean shouting at me- Sam and Dean are the ghost hunters-"

"I figured." I nod in understanding.

"Anyway, I used up a lot of my energy fighting Skulker so I tried to fly away but..." He pauses and puts his head in his hands .

I rest my hand on his shoulder and he looks up to me and I see fresh tears pooling in his eyes. I give him a small smile and a nod.

"What happened next?" I try to be as gentle as I can, not wanting to cause him more distress.

"They shot me." My breath stops for a split second and I feel my heart drop.

"Dude! Danny are you okay?! Where did they shoot you?" I fuss over. He holds his hand over his the center of his chest and I start searching his torso and back for a bullet wound. I don't find any bullet wounds nor scars and I get confused.

"I don't see anything." I state only getting a slight nod in return.

"Neither of them would stop bleeding and I thought I was going to finally die. But when I walked in my house Sam and Dean were there, and I know for a fact there was no way they should be. I was fighting a few blocks away and I led them in the opposite direction when I fled as a ghost. But there they were, along with Jazz and mom and dad. In fact it looked like they were just leaving the house."

"Hmm." I scratch my chin. Confusion hits me like a ton of bricks at what Danny is telling me. "That's odd." I state, unable to come up with anything else.

"The strangest thing is none of them seemed to notice the blood so I looked down... but there was nothing. No blood- no bullet hole- and the cut was just another scar. Sam tried to come into my room while I was checking and I panicked and came here. God! I'm so stupid!" He is yelling now. He shoots off the bed and paces back and forth pulling his hair.

"Danny-" I try to calm him down but he continues.

"I just probably made them even more suspicious than they already were! They're going to find out what I am and they'll kill me for sure! They were already suspicious of my name- I mean seriously?! I had to call myself Danny Phantom?! I couldn't have come up with anything else? Something that didn't scream 'I am Danny Fenton'?" He stops in the center of my room, chest raising and falling at an alarmingly quick rate.

I notice a bunch of my smaller objects are slightly levitating centimeters from their original place. It's unusual to see Danny using so much power in his human form- and even more unsettling that he's using a power he didn't have before.

"I gotta put an end to this before something really bad happens." I decide.

I stand up and walk over to him, placing a hand on his shoulder. "Danny, it's going to be okay-" Before I can finish Danny swings around, his arm hits me in the side of my face and sends me crashing to the floor. I look up in shock to see his face twisted in anger and his eyes glowing green.

"That can NOT be good." I say aloud.

-Line-Break-

"Hey Danny, old pal?" I stutter as I stand. "You okay there, you're looking a little... green around the-" I wave a finger over my eyes to try and show him.

I hear him gasp and his eyes are back to normal.

"It happened again!" He whined, sinking to the floor. He pulls his knees up and wraps his arms around them before hiding his face in his knees.

"I'm so sorry, Tuck." He cries.

'What have we gotten ourselves into?' I wonder.

"It's alright, see I'm fine." I try to coax him from his "hiding spot".

"I could have really hurt you." He sniffs. "I don't know what's going on Tuck- it's like I can't control myself. I get so freaked out that I just snap. I yelled at Jazz for no reason." He explains while standing.

"That doesn't sound good." I state, taking off my glasses to clean out of nervous habit.

"I know." He agrees, sitting back on my bed. "I know Skulker did something with that knife but I don't know what. I don't feel sick- it doesn't even hurt where he cut me."

I'm about to comment when I hear our landline ringing down stairs following the sound of footsteps getting further away. I walk up and crack open my door and try to listen in but I can only hear the muffled, distant voice of my mom. Danny, apparently, can hear every word because he looks down in guilt.

The stairs creak under weight being put on them and I know my mom is coming and run back to my bed.

"Tucker." My mom calls while knocking.

"Yeah, mom." I answer.

"Is Danny here? His sister is looking for him. I see Danny sink back, probably trying to shrink into oblivion.

"Yeah, he decided to stay over the night. We had a lot of homework to do and we figured it'd be better to do together." I so hope Jazz doesn't try to make him go home. That's the last thing he needs right now.

Danny gives me a sad, thankful smile and nod for the quick thinking.

"I wish you would have told me sooner, I would have pulled out the extra mattress for him." She calls back sounding distressed.

"Sorry, mom. It was kind of a last minute thing. We'll get the mattress set up before we go to bed later. I mean if it's okay he stays here."

'Please be okay, please be okay!' I pray quietly, rubbing my hands together.

"Alright, I'll check." Foot steps go back down the stairs and Danny and I are left in complete silence- minus the buzzing of my harddrive.

"Thank you." Danny mumbles.

"I got your back." I state. Mom comes back upstairs and calls out from the other side of the door once more.

"Your parents say it's fine, and Jasmine wanted me to tell you that she forgives you." she reports and heads off to bed. Tears form in Danny eyes and he buries his head in my pillow crying thank you over and over.

"Thank you mom." I sigh in relief.

I wait until I hear the click of her bedroom door before I speak to Danny again.

"Don't worry, we'll figure this one out. Just like we always do." I try to comfort. He nods but I can tell by his slumped shoulder and nervous look that he doesn't completely believe me.

I look at my digital clock on my computer desk. "9:45" I read aloud.

"We should call Sam and let her know what's going on." I offer. He contemplates and nods in agreement.

I take my phone out and am about to dial when a portal opens right in front of us.

-Line-Break-

I am watching some lame Nightmerica rip-off movie where Nightmerica was a guy named Freddy Something. It's really dumb.

"Really?!" I shout in disbelief. "That's so stupid. Just because she isn't scared of him he disappears? That's du-" I'm cut off of my mid rant by my phone.

I answer it, figuring it was Danny or Tucker with an update on the brothers.

Instead, I'm getting an earful of Tucker's yelling. "He took Danny!" I move the device away before bringing back and he's babbling something about Danny and a knife and... Skulker?

"Whoa, whoa!" I tell him. "Slow down. What happened to Danny?"

"Vlad took Danny!" He explains.

I'm shocked to hear this. "What? How!?" I call out, already putting on my boots, the phone rest between my shoulder and ear.

"He came over earlier. He got into a nasty fight with Skulker and he did something to Danny. Danny came here when the ghost hunters got suspicious. We were about to call you but Vlad came through some kind of green portal. Danny tried to change but he couldn't. Vlad told him if he didn't go with him he would do bad things to me and my family. He went with him!" I grit my teeth, I'm sneaking out my door by the end of his explanation.

"Meet me by Danny's, we need to get the Specter Speeder and find Danny." I order, I hear the click of a door and Tucker's heavy breathing so I know he has the same idea and I'm glad we're on the same page.

Ten minutes later I come up to Danny's all the lights are out meaning everyone is asleep. I see Tucker already standing at the bottom of the steps, still in his day clothes.

"Is that what you wear to bed?" He asks in confusion when he sees my dark gray night gown, torn and chopped to where it falls a few inches over my knees- one of my once pink, floral ridden dresses mom bought for me to "liven up my wardrobe".

"And what about you? You always wear your school clothes to bed?"

He folds his arms. "I'll have you know I wasn't in bed. I was doing extensive research on our ghost hunters... And came up with nothing. The only thing I found was license plates say it belongs to a car from a place called Bobby's Junkyard."

"We'll have to worry about how strange that is later. Right now we need to get to Danny. You said Skulker did something to Danny when they fought? What exactly did you mean?" I point out.

"Danny said when he cut him with a knife the wound wouldn't heal right away like it normally would. And after he beat Skulker he said the ghost hunters came up and shot him in the back, but not only were there no bullet wounds- fresh or scarred- he said the to were still at home by the time he got home- By flying." He explained. "That's why we were going to call you- but then Vlad showed up."

Tucker looks worried, and I don't blame him, I'm worried myself, but we need to be strong- for Danny.

"Okay, so odds are Vlad took Danny back to his mansion in Wisconsin. So now we need to grab the Specter Speeder- still a dumb name- and some weapons and go save our friend." Tucker nods at my plan and we sneak up to the door.

I gently turn the knob and it's unlocked. "Like always." I smirk and turn to Tucker, who's hunching over close behind. I put a finger up to my lips to indicate we need to be quiet and he nods in understanding.

We tip toe all the way over to the stairs leading to the basement. About half way I hear a not-so-quiet thud.

"Ow-" Tucker starts to cry out and I race to cover his mouth before he can make another sound.

"Shh!" I fuss as quietly as I can. We hear a noise coming from upstairs. We duck behind the stairs as fast as we can, as to not be spotted. All we need right now is for someone to catch us sneaking around at 10:30 at night. We hear footsteps walking up to the stairs and Tucker grips my shoulders. I feel his arms resting on my back and they're shaking.

I hold my breath in fear, desperate not to make a sound and I can feel Tucker do the same. The footsteps start up again but thankfully in the other direction.

We hold off for a bit longer to be sure whoever came out was no longer around. I'm sure now and I let out a sigh of relief along with Tucker.

"Let's not do that again." Tucker whispers. I nod in agreement and we stand back up and decide to move more quickly- wouldn't want to get caught for real this time.

We speed walk down the stairs and only stop when we are able to see the one machine that will get us safely into the ghost zone. We start rummaging around for weapons to use against Vlad and any other ghost he may have around.

Tucker grabs the ghost gloves and specter deflector and places them in the vehicle. I look around until I spot the phenton phones.

"Maybe I can use these to try and communicate with Danny when we get in there." I mumble. I place them in my ears and glance around to find a weapon. I spot a small gun looking object with the words Fenton Ghost Peeler. "Ouch, sounds painful." I cringe. "Perfect for Vlad!" I grin menacingly.

"We all set to go?" Tucker asks, climbing on to the speeder. I'm about to answer but I'm cut off by another.

"What are you two doing in here?"

Oh boy, was this chapter something. I originally planned on making it in Danny and Tuckers PoV but I decided to go with Tucker and Sam, considering I thought they needed a bigger role in the story; I mean come on, they help make the show in the first place. Like always Of course I don't own anything and please let me know what you guys think.

What should I do differently in the next chapter- what should I change in this one- Did I miss an error or two (or 20)-
