A new update after so long . It's kind of short but bear with me. Enjoy!



"Sam!!" I heard Phantom yell before the ecto blast froze right in front of me. I stared at it, confused. I was sure I was going to be toast. Looking around, I saw Phantom frozen in place along with vampire-like ghost. Walking in front of them, I waved a hand in front of their faces, only to find they weren't reacting at all.

"What's going on?" I said just as the ecto blast began moving again and blasted the ground which I had just been sitting on. I watched as the vampire-like ghost threw another ecto blast at me. Phantom flew in front of me and blocked it with one of his own. I looked on confused. Weren't they just frozen? And why were they not as confused as I was? It was really tiring to be asking myself this and trying to run from the ghost's attacks.

"Cover your ears" whispered Phantom as he appeared behind me. I watched as he got in front of the ghost and opened his mouth. I immediately covered my ears and braced myself when I felt the building shaking. The ghost was knocked to the wall and became unconscious. I watched as two black rings appeared at its' waist and transformed it into Mayor Masters.

"Mayor Masters is the ghost?!" I exclaimed in surprise.

"It's better if you don't tell anyone. Who knows what he'll do to you or your family" said Phantom as he stepped in front of me.

"What did he mean when he said I was a threat?" I asked.

"I'm not sure…" said Phantom.

"You know something don't you?" I said as I looked at him. He backed away, not meeting my eyes and rubbing his neck.

"You're hiding something" I said as I stared into his eyes, trying to get him to falter and tell me the truth.

"Nothing you have to worry about" said Phantom before grabbing me and taking to the sky.

"Hey!" I yelled out in surprise.

"I won't drop you, if that's what you're thinking" said Phantom, a hint of amusement in his voice.

"You could at least warn me" I said, still getting accustomed to the feel of flying in the air.

"Where do you live? I'll see you home" he said, looking at me.

"It's over there" I said, pointing towards the mansion. When he dropped me off on the balcony, he smiled at me and said,

"Stay safe" Nodding I watched until he was only a speck in the sky before turning and entering my room, only to find that it had been ransacked. Staring in horror at the scene before me, I immediately ran down, worried for my Granny.

"Granny?" I called out as I flew down the stairs, only to see her collapsed on the floor. Rushing forward, I gently lifted her head and checked her for any injuries.

"Water…." Her voice was weak.

"Wait here, I'll go and get it" I said, attempting to keep my voice from faltering and myself from stumbling as I made my way to the kitchen and poured a glass of water. Hurrying back, I placed the glass at her lips and tipped it gently, to allow a small trickle of water to make it into her mouth. I watched as she drank slowly and with some difficulty. When it was finished, I hurried back to get more water and when I came back, she was sitting up, looking much better. Handing her the glass of water, I asked,

"What happened, Granny? Why were we…attacked?" I asked. I could see that all the valuable items in the house had remained untouched. Whoever had broken in obviously had not been looking to rob our valuables.

"I have no idea, bubeleh. I had just returned home and was going to the kitchen when I felt something hit me on the back of my head. I don't remember anything after that" Gasping, I immediately checked for any sign of blood or swelling and saw only a bruise.

"I think we'd better call a doctor to make sure" I said, making my way to the phone and dialing the family doctor. Having done that, I called the police, explaining the situation to them. When the door bell rang, I peeked cautiously through the peep hole and seeing our family doctor on the steps, I opened the door, letting him in and closing the door after him.

"What happened here?" Mr. Gray asked as he looked at the state the mansion was in.

"Someone broke in. He didn't take anything of value from here though. I still don't know about the other rooms" I said as we helped my grandmother onto the sofa.

"Samantha, shouldn't you check the other rooms? I'll look after your grandmother" he said as he examined Granny's wound.

"But…"I began to protest, only to be cut short by Granny's,

"It's all right, bubeleh. I'll be fine" Reluctantly, I turned away and went up, checking in my room for anything that was taken and being careful not to touch anything. The other rooms had also been ransacked though it wasn't as bad as mine or Granny's room. All the valuable things in the mansion had not been touched or damaged as far as I could and reporting back to my Granny, I sat next to her, awaiting the arrival of the police which was soon. Letting them in, I stepped back as they begun to inspect the house and asked questions which was mostly answered by me. When they had taken what evidence they could find, they promised to send a few cops to act as bodyguard so that we could rest with peace of mind. Thanking them, I saw them to the door.

"Granny?" I called out when I noticed she wasn't sitting on the sofa.

"Gone…gone…" hearing the murmurs, I made my way towards my Granny's room and saw her staring at a drawer, murmuring.

"What's gone, Granny?" I asked, concerned as I took in Granny's panic-stricken face. When she saw me, she calmed down and smiling, said,

"It's nothing bubeleh. Don't worry" she said. I was not convinced but I let the matter go, unwilling to pursue it. Mr. Gray had asked to make sure Granny got plenty of sleep and I had to make sure she did.

"Bubeleh, shouldn't you be getting ready for bed? There's school tomorrow" nodding, I told her to have an early night and went up to my room. I didn't think I would be able to sleep but as I climbed into my bed, I felt a warm, comforting feeling and soon I was asleep.

The next day, I waited for Danny and Tucker. I hadn't planned on telling them that my house had been robbed but it seemed that I had no choice. Valerie lived close to me and had obviously seen the police and suspected something was up and had told Tucker. Unable to stand the two of them interrogating me like some criminal, I had gave in and told them everything.

"You managed to sleep despite all that?" said Tucker as he stared at me in disbelief.

"Yes, I did" I said, sighing as I did so. The interrogating was still ongoing and I could see no way I could get out of it. What I wouldn't give for a distraction, I thought. Just as I did, we heard screams from outside. Rushing to the window and peering down, I saw a huge spider terrorizing the students. Turning to look at Danny and Tucker, I saw them looking in horror at it. Spotting us, it began to swing one of its gigantic legs towards the building, its intent clear. We watched in horror as it neared, already picturing the worst scenario.
