Chapter 3: Kyle
Jasmine's son, Kyle, was at his house doing his homework when he hears something from the outside. He looks through the window and sees Shadow fighting the Box Ghost and the Box Lunch. The two ghosts combined were so much of a threat Shadow had to use his energy wave to defeat them and suck them at the Fenton Thermos 2.0. Right after he puts it on his pocket, Shadow is hit by a blast. He turns around and realizes it came from Tori.
"Tori, why do you keep shooting me?" Shadow asks. "Can't you give me the benefit of doubt?"
"I don't know how you made Jake and his Dad buy that good guy facade but I'm not all humans are that stupid." The Blue Huntress answers. "And now you don't have any girl to save you."
Kyle forgot his homework to watch the fight between the Ghost Boy and the Blue Huntress. He even got his camera to catch it on video. Shadow was all defensive during the fight and Kyle realizes the Ghost Boy doesn't want to hurt her. What a hero. He thought. No wonder Uncle Danny feels some connection with him. My Mom once told me he used to be mistaken for a bad guy.
During some point of the battle, Shadow is thrown into Kyle's room, phasing through the wall. Kyle is surprised by what he sees, and records, next. Two black rings appear around the Ghost Boy, revealing him to be Kyle's Cousin Jake Fenton. Cool. My Cousin Jake is a ghost hero?
Not having too much time before the Blue Huntress enters his room searching for Shadow, Kyle decides to hide his cousin behind his bed. She enters and is surprised about who she finds there. "Kyle? What're you doing here?"
"I live here." He answers, making Tori feel like a fool for asking it in the first place. "And how do you know me?"
Remembering she had only met him without the suit during Abby and Jake's birthdays, Tori reveals her face. "Tori? You're a Huntress?" She nods in agreement. "And what are you doing here?"
"I'm hunting a despicable ghost who phased his way into this room." She explains. "Where is he?"
"He phased his way out before you came in." He lies. "If you wanna catch him you must hurry."
Tori uses her ghost scanner and eventually points it at Kyle's bed. "If he's gone, why does it say there's a ghost here?"
"Grandpa Jack gives me lots of ghost-related devices." Kyle lies. "He probably forgot to clean the ectoplasm from some of them."
Thinking about it, Tori thinks at the fact Jack Fenton isn't exactly the brightest ghost hunter in town and decides to believe Kyle. "Okay. I'll look for Shadow around the street." She says and then leaves.
After that, Kyle pulls Jake from under the bed and wakes him. "Kyle, what happened?"
"I hid you under my bed so Tori wouldn't find you, Jake." Kyle answers. "Or should I call you Shadow?"
"What're you talking, Kyle?" Jake asks, hoping there's still a chance to mislead his cousin. "I'm not Shadow."
"There's no use denying it to me." Kyle says. "I've seen your black rings turn you from Shadow to Jake."
Jake now understands he's got no more chances to hide the truth from his cousin. "Okay, Kyle. I admit I'm Shadow but please don't tell anybody."
"Why not?" Kyle asks. "It would make the ghost hunters stop thinking you're evil."
"I just think it's better to keep it a secret, okay?" Jake replies.
"I'll make no promises, cousin." Kyle answers. "By the way, who else already knows your secret?"
Jake briefs him on that. "What? Your own Father is clueless enough to remain oblivious to this? I expected him to have figured it out by now."
Jake was reply to this comment but his ghost sense goes off. "Oops, I gotta go. Bye." Jake quickly turns into Shadow and leaves.
After finishing his homework, Kyle thinks about what to do. That's when his parents come home.
"Kyle, we're home." Kyle's Dad, Dave, says.
Deciding his Mom is the best one to advise him on that matter, he decides to call her. "Hi, Dad. Hi, Mom. Mom, could I talk to you for a moment?"
"What's wrong with me?" Dave asks in protest.
"Nothing, Dad." Kyle answers. "It's just that I wanna talk about ghosts and Mom's side of the family is the one that knows about them."
Understanding that, Dave leaves the Mother/Son duo alone.
"So, what do you wanna know, Kyle?" Jazz asks.
Please review. I wanna know what you think about this fic so far.
