Chapter 2: my best friend

Dusty Fenton was not happy about waking up early and dragging his butt out of bed. He was even less happy when he got a call from his cousin, Jameson Yorkland, saying he was being attacked. Dusty groaned before telling his sister he was going to get Jameson.

Jameson Yorkland was Dusty's best friend and younger cousin. Dusty's father, Stephen, and Jameson's mother, Daphne, had always been close, even more so after Jameson's father died. As such Daphne and Jameson in a town called Day Town which was only an hour or so away from Dusty's hometown, Riverchase.

Which meant that Jameson was just going to fly over but it seems that was not to happen since Jameson had been stopped by a ghost dragon…..well at least it was something easier than say that fruit lion or that candy snake…..that snake man.

As Dusty finally made it to where Jameson was, he found himself dodging out of the way of a speeding dragon. He stared after the dragon confused.

"Flames…..out of …..it's ass," Dusty muttered confused.

"Dusty!"

Turning the ghost boy saw his cousin. Jameson Yorkland most of the time looked like an Asian looking teen with average length black hair, brown eyes, and wearing a hoodie and jeans, but currently was in his phantom form. Meaning he had snow white hair, glowing blue eyes, and had on a black hoodie and jeans.

Dusty ran a hand thru his currently white and purple hair before high fiving his cousin and best friend, "Dude, that dragon….."

"Laugh now. He's super-fast," Jameson complained as he looked back at the dragon as it speed at them mouth open.

Dusty immediately launched ecto-blasts at the beasts but it seemed to slip around the blasts easily like a snake. Jameson created an ecto-bat and knocked the dragon away, Dusty saw this and turned to blast at it but found it had speed away.

"Damn," Dusty complained as he watched the dragon circled them in while flying in a zip-zang pattern.

"I know," Jameson muttered, "I can only get one hit on it before it speeds away."

"Dude, if we lose to a dragon farting flames we'll never hear the end of it," Dusty complained as he caught sight of his sisters pet sabertooth ghost flying towards him, "Dude, knock it to Nabi."

"Huh?" Jameson looked at his cousin, "Oh."

Dusty fired rapid fire at the dragon till it launched its self at Jameson again as he knocked it away with his ecto-bat into the waiting mouth of his cousin's ghost sabertooth pet as it eagerly began chewing on its treat as the dragon cried in pain dying.

"Home run," Dusty joke giving his cousin a high five as the dragon stopped moving as Nabi devoured it happily.

"Dude, remind me to never piss your sister's pet off," Jameson tried to joke as he watched Nabi swallow the Dragon's leg whole.

"Tell me about it," Dusty sighed as motioned behind him, "Now, let's get to Riverchase. Lucky for ya, our other cousins are late as hell."

…

The Matthews, Jake, Josh, and Raven, were late but then again they had a right to be. They lived in Amity Park, along with their parents, Lily and Nathan Matthews, their grandparents, Danny and Sam Fenton, and the Matthew's Grandfather, Vlad Masters. Which was over 2 hours away.

By the time, Dusty, Jameson, and Nabi got back they still hadn't arrived. Regan waved to her cousin and brother and opened her arms to allow Nabi, now kitten sized, to jump into her arms.

"Hey, Regan," Jameson smiled to his cousin as he gave her a quick hug before he transformed back into his human form.

Dusty followed suit and stretched as he looked around, "Aaron, go to get warmed up?"

"Yes, he's doing the 5000 meters this time," Regan commented.

"Ah," Jameson commented, "So, when Raven called to say they were running late did she say why?"

Regan sighed, "Yes, it seems Jake had to change his outfit 4 times since he and Raven are bringing their girlfriend and boyfriends."

"Jake is such a girl," Dusty complained earning a look from Jameson, "What?"

"I'll remember that the next time you stop to fix your hair," his cousin picked.

Dusty took a moment to spike up his green streak blonde hair that was soaked with sweat, "Leave the hair out of this."

At that moment a white limo pulled into the parking lot causing everyone around to turn a look.

Dusty raised his eyebrow as the door busted open and a familiar teenager popped out.

"HELLO RIVERCHASE!"

Dusty laughed as Jameson face palmed and Regan blushed embarrassed.

"Jake!" Dusty laughed as he ran over and gave his older cousin a high five.

"Dusty," Jake smiled returning the high five.

"Jake," a voice called.

The older boy stiffened as he turned to help get a Chinese looking girl out of the limo, "Sorry, Stacy."

The girl rolled her eyes annoyed as she moved out of the way allowing a very peeved looking Raven Matthews out followed by her redheaded boyfriend who looked tired. As Josh, Jake's twin, got out following her and Dusty expected that to be it but was surprised as a final passenger out.

A slightly more dressy looking young man with white hair got out and turned to the driver, "Thank you, Alphonse. I'll call when we wish to leave."

"Yes, Sir. Have fun," the driver replied as the limo left.

Josh rubbed his temples as he looked over at his cousins, "Hey."

They all stood in silence for a second before the Chinese girl elbowed Jake motioning to Regan, Dusty, and Jameson, "Oh. Right."

Jake motioned to his cousins, "Introductions! These are our cousins, Regan and Dusty Fenton. They're siblings and Regan's boyfriend is the reasons were at this track meet, he's a runner. And the other is our other cousin, Jameson Yorkland."

Regan, Dusty, and Jameson waved as Jake continued motioning to his date, "This is Stacy Cao, my lovely girlfriend-"

"Honestly, Jake….."

"- Your remember Raven's boytoy, Xander Wyatt."

"He's not my boytoy!"

"Good to see you again."

"-And Josh's "date" William Elijah Mystan VII."

Everyone glared at Jake annoyed as Stacy slapped his shoulder, "You know that's not his name."

Jake continued to smile stupidly as his girlfriend chewed him out.

The white haired young man held out his hand to Regan, Dusty, and Jameson, "My name is Wilhelm Elias Meister V. Call me Wilhelm, Joshua's friend."

Regan shook his hand as she motioned for the group to follow her, "Shall we. It's about to start."
