Rosie was doing very well fighting Vlad alone. Vlad was even impressed at how good Rosie was at fighting. "You're good!" Vlad said. "Thanks. But I'm not asking for your opinions!" Rosie yelled as she shot her ectoplasm with music notes in it at Vlad. He dodged it and shot at Rosie. Rosie went invisible and when the red ectoplasm went past her, she went back to visible. She noticed that something hit Vlad in the arm. Vlad was holding it in pain. Rosie looked over and saw a ghostly white cape ran around the corner away from the action. Was that…? No, it couldn't have been him. Could it? Rosie thought.
Without Rosie realizing, Vlad snuck up on her and hit her full force with his red ectoplasm again. Rosie was hit and flew into a wall hard. She fell on her butt and just sat their unconscious and demorphed. Vlad walked closer and closer when ectoplasm was shot at him. Vlad flew to the side wall and hit it. He fell down and looked up. He saw a man with white hair, green eyes, and wore a D on his jumpsuit. It was Danny Fenton/Phantom. "You leave my daughter alone, Vlad!" Danny yelled at Vlad. Vlad got scared and disappeared.
Rosie was still unconscious while sitting there. Danny ran over to his daughter, knelt down next to her and picked her up bridal style. He then flew away with his daughter in his arms towards home.
A man with a mask on his face and a black top hat with a black suit and white cape on his back, the exact white cape that Rosie saw earlier while in battle with Vlad. The man's mask covered only his eyes. He wore a smile on his face. "If only you knew…" He said to himself as he turned back into…
At the Fenton household, Rosie was lying on the couch, still unconscious and Sam putting a cold rag on her daughter's forehead. "How did this happen, Danny…?" Sam asked, looking at Danny who was still in his ghost form. "She ran into Vlad. I was watching from the side for a while. She was kicking his butt from where I was standing." Danny mentioned. "Our little girl…she's becoming too much like you, Danny." Sam said, as Danny turned back to his human self. "Yeah…there's a lot of you in her too, Sam. Like for instants, she likes to wear black at times, but also likes to wear bright colors." Danny pointed out. "Yeah, but she got the bright colors from you, dear." Sam mentioned. Danny just blushed with a smile. He knew he beat her with their own daughter's traits.
Emma and Jason appeared at the front door. Emma knocked and Danny answered. "Oh, hey Emma, hey Jason…" Danny said. "Hey…is Rosie doing okay?" Emma asked instantly. Danny knew that Emma knew Rosie's secret. Jason looked like he knew but was playing dumb. "How'd you know Rosie was hurt?" Jason asked his sister. Emma sighed. I want to tell him so badly, but… Emma began to think when all of a sudden. "Don't make me go all bad-ass on you, Em." Rosie's voice sounded through everyone's ears. "Oh…Rosie…" Emma said as Jason and Danny laughed and Sam giggled.
"Hey sweetie…how you feeling…?" Sam asked. "Like shit." Rosie said as she sat up. "Vlad's tough." Rosie said but when she saw Jason she started freaking. "Oh, Jason…I didn't know you were here." She said, giggling nervously. "Guys, cut the act…I've known all along." Jason said. "Huh? You've known?" Emma asked, shocked. "Hell yeah…I mean, it's hard not to know when that's all dad talks about." Jason mentioned. "Oh, I'm going to kill your dad." Rosie said, making Danny laugh. "Now, wait a minute, Rosie…that's my job." Sam said making everyone laugh their butts off. Rosie loved her mom and dad, and she had great friends. Nothing could go wrong.
"So you know I'm a half-a?" Rosie asked Jason, being serious now. Jason looked at Rosie confused. "A what-a…?" Jason asked. Rosie sighed as she stood up and turned into Rosie Phantom. "A half-a…like my dad." Rosie said, going back to normal. Jason just smiled. "Oh, you know damn right well I knew." He said, winking at Rosie, which made her blush a deep shade of red.
"Well, sorry to come and go, but we need Rosie now. Big day…I got her a gig!" Emma said. "Emma…! I can't sing!" Rosie said, yelling practically. "Sure you can, Rosie." Danny said. "I mean, you just can't sing high notes out of your ghost form." Rosie looked at her mom and dad and sighed. They don't get it. My voice has yet to sing high alto and regular alto. How am I going to get away with this one? She thought to herself.
Just then, Jason breathed a sigh with blue air coming out of his mouth. Oh, damn it! He thought. Rosie saw that and was shocked. Is he…? She began to think when the same thing happened to her. What the hell…? Rosie thought. Danny got it as well but he wanted Rosie to take it this time. So, Rosie ran out the door, not knowing that Jason ran out after she left. Rosie turned into Rosie Phantom, and flew off to look for the ghost in question.
When she got to the park, where the screams were coming from, she saw the Box Ghost (I'm calling him Boxer from now on) being all weird, and trying to be scary. Rosie rolled her eyes and landed on the ground. "Boxer, what are you doing?" She asked, pissed. Boxer turned around and looked vicious. Rosie noticed that Boxer's eyes were red, not their normal color (don't know what that is). "Boxer…?" She asked curious yet scared at the same time.
Boxer moved closer and closer, growling with each step. Rosie kept backing up farther and farther. Just then, white ectoplasm came at Boxer. Wait a minute…WHITE?!
Boxer got hit and fell to the ground. Rosie looked up and saw the man floating in the air. As he landed on the ground, Rosie noticed the ghostly white cape on his back. "You…you're the one who hit Vlad in the arm!" Rosie said, surprised. The Masked man looked at Rosie. "That's right, Miss Phantom. Your friend here is under a mind control. I'd sing if I were you." He said. Rosie looked shocked, but was shy with a blush at the same time. She couldn't sing in front of a stranger. She just met the man. But, when Boxer sat back up and was practically on top of her, she knew it had to be done. Here it goes… She thought.
(SONG: "Extra Ordinary"—Lucy Hale)
The necklace around Rosie's neck started glowing bright as a melody poured out of it, blowing Boxer away from her.
I'm imprisoned; I'm living a lie,
Another night of putting on a disguise,
I wanna tear it off and step in the light
Don't you, don't you?
When Boxer heard her voice, singing, his eyes started changing on and off. The Masked Man looked shocked at Rosie's voice. I never did hear her sing before. He thought.
So now I'm knocking at your front door,
And I'm looking for the right cure,
I'm still a little bit unsure,
Cuz I know, yeah I know…
That most people see me as ordinary,
But if you look close you'll find I'm very,
Interesting, and hard to know,
You can never tell where this might go,
Cuz I'm not your average, average person,
I don't know much but I know for certain,
That I'm just a little bit extra, extra,
I'm just a little bit extra ordinary.
I can see if from the spark in your eyes,
You believe in all the things you deny,
You wanna fly and leave your worries behind,
Don't you, don't you?
Well now I'm knocking at your front door,
And I'm looking for the right cure,
I'm still a little bit unsure,
Cuz I know, yeah I know…
That most people see me as ordinary,
But if you look close you'll find I'm very,
Interesting, and hard to know,
You can never tell where this might go,
Cuz I'm not your average, average person,
I don't know much but I know for certain,
That I'm just a little bit extra, extra,
I'm just a little bit extra ordinary.
(End of song)
When Rosie stopped singing, her necklace stopped glowing, and Boxer was back to normal. "Whoa…thanks Rosie. You're a good friend." Boxer said when he came to. Rosie smiled big. I just sang with my alto voices! I didn't even know I had them now! She thought. She looked over and saw that the Masked Man was gone. She sighed. Jason…was that you?
