Tuck Love Act I: Burger Etiquette

Nasty Burger

It's Saturday and the Nasty Burger is introducing new items on their menu based on Danny. There is already a huge crowd and Sam and Tucker are in it. Sam is wearing her usual Goth clothes, and Tucker is wearing hi yellow shirt, green pants, and red beret. He has a napkin around his neck and is hungrily waiting for the place to open.

"Hey Sam, have you heard from Danny?" asked Tucker.

"I thought you did. Haven't you heard anything from him? asked Sam.

"Actually, he hasn't" said Danny.

The two turn around to see there friend standing annoyed.

"Hey dude, nice to see you. We haven't seen you in weeks." said Tucker.

"Yeah, that's my parents fault. They won't believe me about me being innocent." said Danny.

"Well they do have evidence." reminded Sam.

"Oh no, please tell me you two don't believe that stuff too?" asked Danny.

"No, of course not." lied Tucker.

"Then how come whenever I see you guys you walk away." asked Danny.

"Look dude. It's nothing personal, but everyone basically thinks you attacked that billionaire. We don't want to be ostracized more then usual." said Tucker.

"I think what Tucker is saying is that we're waiting for heat to die down so that we can hang out and not worry about our parents." said Sam.

"Yeah, I understand why do you couldn't be with me, but Tucker doesn't have an excuse." said Danny.

"Hey! I just got slightly popular! I don't want girls to be scared that I'm friends with you. How else am I supposed to get chicks?" asked Tucker.

"It's been 3 weeks, how many girls do you have?" asked Sam.

"None of your business. By the way, how did you convince your parents to let you out?" asked Tucker.

"They thought I should get some fresh air. That and get them lunch." said Danny.

"Harsh. How about I pay for lunch as a way of saying sorry." said Sam.

"Fine, but I pay for the next time we go out." offered Danny.

"Deal."

"WHAT! That's a horrible deal. If you want my advice-" said Tucker.

"Which we don't"

"-You should have made her pay without owing her. She'll probably buy a ton of stuff next time."

"That's horrible advice; and I'm not shallow enough to make a guy buy me stuff." said Sam.

"And I'm not using Sam for her money and stop giving us advice!" shouted Danny.

The doors to the Nasty Burger opened and everyone went inside. Danny and his friends were let in front of the line and the three got a good look at the menu. The sign showed three new meals called "Recyclo Meal", "Techno-Meat" and "Phantom Entre".

"Welcome to Nasty Burger how may I-wait, you're Danny Phantom!" said the man working the cash register. "We know what you want. One of each for the Fenton kid and his friends." he said into the microphone.

Danny paid him and he waited with Sam and Tucker for their food.

"Why don't you guys like my advice?" asked Tucker.

"Tucker, it's nothing personal, but you don't have good advice." said Danny.

"Yeah, how are we supposed to take advice from someone who doesn't have a date?" asked Sam.

"Hey, I know what not to do." replied Tucker.

"Danny Phantom, your order is ready." said the man with the microphone.

"Ugh, lets just eat before the crazy fans get here." said Danny.

They got there food and sat down at the nearest booth. They pulled out the food and it was there normal orders.

"Wow, they got are usual orders on the menu" said Sam.

"Yeah great." Tucker said in a depressed way.

"Tuck, don't take what we said so seriously, just enjoy your food. It's nice they changed the menu and put us in it."

"It's okay, I'm just upset that the new Pearphone is out and I'm $15 bucks short."

"I'm sure you'll get the money some how, so just- wait what did you just say Sam?" asked Danny.

"It's nice they changed the menu?"

As Sam repeated what she said the entire restaurant started to shake and Danny's ghost sense went off.

"I jinxed it didn't I?" asked Sam.

Out of nowhere the Lunch lady appeared as angry as usual. Everybody started screaming and panicking. Even the employees stopped working and one even stopped refilling the freezer, leaving the door open.

"Nobody changes the menu!" she yelled.

"Great, even during my lunch break I have to fight these nut jobs. I'M GOING GHOST!" Danny yelled.

He jumped out of the booth and transformed into his ghost self. He flew up to meet face to face with the crazed old lady.

"Can't you go one day without worrying about something new?"

"NO! The menu was fine just the way it was! Would you like a small fries or tater tots?" said the Lunch Lady.

"I'd actually like the first one." said Tucker.

"Focus and get the thermos! Besides, tater tots and French fries are the same thing. They both are made with fat, salt, and potatoes." said Sam.

"THERE IS A DIFFERENCE! BEWARE!"

Everyone turned to see the Lunch Lady's boy friend, the Box Ghost floating behind them.

"I am the Box Ghost! Gaze in fear as I take control over all boxes and their uhh" he looked at the boxes and read "'utensils and napkins' HA HA!"

He focused on the crates and summoned an array of straws. The Box Ghost fired them at him, but Danny didn't even try avoiding because they just bounced off him harmlessly. He looked at the Box Ghost and then the Lunch Lady giving them both a "really?" look.

"It's his first time helping me and I thought this would be a good time for him to take apart in my interests." said the Lunch Lady.

She concentrates on the deep fryer and grease starts gushing out and heading towards Danny. He turns invisible and the grease passes through him. However, the grease did end up hitting someone.

"I Am Box Ghost! Beware my severe burns! AHHHHHHH!"

That person was the Box Ghost. As he blindly flew with grease stinging his eyes, the two ghosts were fighting each other fiercely. The Lunch Lady was firing patties and fries, while Danny was retaliating with ecto rays and ice rays. Eventually, she pinned Danny in front of the soda machine.

"Any last requests, preferably a side dish." asked the Lunch Lady.

"Your might want to check up on your boyfriend." commented Danny.

They saw as the Box Ghost accidently bumped into the soda machine, causing it to tip and pour the contents on the Lunch Lady. Everyone laughed at this accident as the Lunch Lady grew madder then she ever grew before.

"GET OUT!" she yelled.

Everyone stopped laughing and ran out of the restaurant. The only ones remaining were Danny, Tucker, Sam, The Box Ghost, and the infuriated Lunch Lady.

"Wow that was amazing honey." complimented the Box Ghost.

"THAT INCLUDES YOU!"

"Oh"

He floated out of the restaurant and sat down sadly. He then noticed that he was sitting next to Tucker.

"Aren't you going to say beware?" asked Tucker

"No, I'm too sad. I think the Lunch Lady is going to break up with me." the Box Ghost responded.

"Why? Seriously, what's the one main reason, I can't narrow it."

"That's what all the other ghosts are betting money on. Literally. She's mad that I don't pull my weight. She complains about how I don't do my share, she has to protect me all the time, and that I don't care about her interests. I don't know what to do."

"Hmmm, I might be able to help.

"How can you help?"

"It's easy. Just do what she says. Help her out sometime, defend yourself and not reliant, and pretend you're interested in her needs."

"How do you know that will work?"

"I've learned from experience, and those are what could have gotten me into a relationship."

"Interesting."

While the two rejects were talking, The Lunch Lady and Danny were in hand to hand combat. Just then, Danny kicked her into the counter and causing condiments and napkins to fall to the side.

"Sorry, it looks like the Lunch Rush is over." said Danny.

"Not until the menu is restored!" yelled the Box Ghost.

Before Danny could open the Fenton Thermos, everything went dark as the Box Ghost put a box over Danny's head. He then used all his might and lifted to everyone's amazement, a boulder-sized ball of napkins.

"Now its time for you to clean up your act." he joked.

The Box Ghost launched the ball at Danny, knocking him into the freezer and dropping the thermos. The Box Ghost picked it up and opened it, capturing Danny.

"AHHHHHHHHH!"

He got sucked in and then the Box Ghost threw Danny into the freezer and locked it. Everyone could not believe what just happened. Especially the Lunch Lady.

"Boxy, did you really mean that." she asked.

"Yes, fries should never cost $3! It should be at least $2.15."

The two held hands and flew out of the store. As the crowd watched this, Tucker noticed a small box next to him. He opened it and found $20 in it. He smiled as he enjoyed being useful.

"Uh, Tucker, maybe we should help Danny out of the freezer?" reminded Sam.

End Of Act I.
