This is an updating miracle.

Summery up to this point:

Maddie and Jack are worried about Danny's past times, Danny meets a little girl named Grace, Danny gets into a fight with Plasimus and gets beaten and because of the fight, Jack gets turned into a half ghost like Danny. Also Maddie's gone on a ghost hunting trip to Washington D.C.

I think that's all.

KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

The wind slammed the front door shut. Jazz winced at the sound, but continued to take off her coat. It started to drizzle outside. It was pretty late. She knew that she was supposed to come straight home after dropping her mom off, but the airport had a public library next to it and she was extremely low on reading material. They had to finally kick her out at closing time. She heard a noise in the kitchen. It was probably her dad up for some midnight fudge. She tip toed over there and peaked her head in to see her dad.

"I'm home." She whispered. Her dad jumped and whirled around, dropping the apple he was eating on the floor. Jazz paused. Apple?

She sat down across from her dad as he said while taking calming breaths, "You almost scared me Jazzy-pants! But no one can scare Jack Fenton!"

Jazz ignored the comment and looked at him suspiciously. "Dad, are you okay?" She asked.

"Yes! Of coarse I am! Why wouldn't I be?!" Jack stammered out nervously and rather loudly.

Jazz looked him over. "You look as pale as a ghost-"

"I SWEAR I'M NOT A GHOST!" Her dad exclaimed, cutting her off. There was an awkward pause while Jazz gave him a strange look. Jack quickly corrected himself. "I- I mean, I'm fine! Perfectly fine! Never better!"

She just shook her head, and said "I heading up to bed now. Goodnight."

On her way upstairs she decided to check on her brother. When she opened his door, he wasn't there. Jazz looked at the empty room disapprovingly. She knew very well he was out fighting ghosts. She decided to ask her brother later why their dad was acting so weird.

KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

"HE'S WHAT!!!" Sam yelled, jumping out of her seat at lunch the next day. Danny quickly pulled her down.

"Shh Sam! I don't want the whole world to know!" Danny quietly exclaimed as the people around them slowly stopped staring and started eating their own meal again.

Tucker spluttered. "But wha- I mean- how?!?"

"I thought you said you would call us if you needed backup!" She exclaimed between clinched teeth, hovering somewhere between suppressed fury and worried. "Now look what you've done! You could have killed yourself and your dad!"

"I know." Danny groaned. "It's all my fault. I could have prevent this… and now my dad has to deal with all of this too." Danny said exasperatedly, putting his head between his hands.

Sam, realizing that she might have been a little hard on him, said, "No, I mean- Danny it wasn't your fault. I was just worried of what could have happened to you. Next time, call us. But I can't believe… your dad's half ghost…"

"I know." Tucker added in airily. There was a pause and finally Tucker voiced the phrase going through all of their heads. "Now what?"

"I have no idea. We talked again this morning and he said that he feels like a hypocrite being half ghost and hunting ghost at the same time. I told him that police catch robbers and there's nothing wrong with that, so I think that cheered him up a bit. Right now I'm just trying to help him control his powers without giving away my own secret."

"Are you going to teach him how to fight with his powers?" Tucker asked

"I don't know."

"Why not? It could give you a break. Like make him patrol at night and you can patrol in the day or something." Sam explained

"But what happens when he meets Phantom?" Danny asked quizzically.

"Oh…" Tucker winced.

"Not good." Sam agreed. Another pause. "Well, just know that we'll be here for you Danny." Sam said, and Tucker nodded as well.

Danny looked at both of them and smiled slightly. "Thanks guys," he said warmly.

KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

"Now class," said Ms. Dickson in an overly cheerful voice. "I'm going to pick a helper to hand out some paper-" Everybody's hand shot up. "Hold you horses!" She exclaimed, smiling. "Let me explain first.

"When you get your paper you're going to draw someone that means a lot to you, like your parents, grandparents, friend, or even your dog! Then when you're done, you can bring them home to show your parents okay? Now who wants to be my special helper?"

Grace's hand was the first up, mainly because she liked her teacher and being her special helper could be fun. "How about Sarah." Ms. Dickson said. The rest of the class groaned and put their hands down.

When Grace got her paper she looked down at it blankly. Who did she want to draw, her mom or her dad? Everybody else in her class paired up with people who were going to draw pictures of each other. Why would no one reach out to her? Why didn't she have any friends? Then she smiled. Someone did reach out to her. She started drawing.

KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

Danny opened the door quietly after he got home from school. He put away his backpack and went in to the kitchen to get a snack. His ghost sense went off as he walked towards the door, showing his dad was there. When he walked in, Jack was in his ghost form looking as if he was trying to change his suit's color with a new invention. It was still blue, but no longer baby blue, yet still girly looking.

Mumbling to himself he didn't see Danny walk into the kitchen. Then two things happened at once. First Danny, being a totally klutz, stubbed his foot loudly on the chair, causing him to drop his school bag on the ground and shake the whole kitchen. Jack immediately tensed and whirled around in an awkward battle stance. The next thing Danny knew, a ghost ray was coming at his head, fast. Danny toppled over, barely missing it. "Dad!" He yelled accusingly.

"Woah!" Jack yelled looking at his hand. He quickly looked under the table at Danny. "Are you okay?" He asked seriously. Danny nodded, getting up and brushing himself off, irritated at his dad for attacking him. "Well then THAT WAS AWESOME!" He yelled. "What was it?"

"It was a ghost ray." Danny replied a bit sharply.

"That sounds cool!" His dad exclaimed.

"It's a good offence, and as you gain more experience, you can make shields out of it too." Danny said without thinking, looking down at his bruised arm.

"Wow, you must spend a lot of time on the internet!" His dad said.

Danny looked up and blinked. "Uhh- yeah!"

"But why would I need to be in an offence while in ghost form? You mean… I could use these powers to fight ghost as some sort of ghostly powered super hero?!?" His dad asked, just realizing the possibilities.

Danny cringed realized he totally set himself up for this one. "Well… it's possible…" He said slowly. He could use the breaks after all…

"YEAH BABY!" Jack yelled tossing his hands in to the air. "I can be like all of the comics I used to read as a boy. You know, I always wanted to be a super hero when I was young… the excitement, the adventures, the glory…"

"Don't get too excited." Danny stated dully.

"What?? Why?" His dad asked, his mood dropping.

"Spider-Man, X-Men, and probably more that I can't think of right now are considered freaks, bad-guys, always put down publicly and stuff." Danny said, thinking of other super hero's that have some of the same problems as he does.

"But there's always Super-Man, and Wonder Woman who get to be famous!" His dad said.

"Wonder Woman?" Danny asked, raising an eyebrow. "You read those? Wait- I don't want to know." He decided, shaking his head.

"So Danny-boy, what do you say? Do you want to help me out because you seem to know more about half ghosts than I do?" Jack asked cheerily.

"What do you mean?" Danny asked, a bit nervous.

"Coach me!" His dad exclaimed, throwing his arms wide.

"Coach you?"

"Exactly!" Jack said jumping up and down. "So you'll do it! Great! Lets get started… right after I change this suit's color to something more manly…" Jack said, picking up the invention that he dropped and fiddling with it again.

Suddenly both of their ghost senses went off. "That's the second time! I had one of those when you came in too." His dad stated excitedly, not seeing Danny's. "What is it?"

"Uhh… umm… I'll be up in my room if you need me!" Danny said and rushed off. Jack shrugged and turned some knobs on his invention. Then he pointed it to himself and fired. His suit turned pink. He sighed, and tried again. Yellow. Getting closer… then he tried again and got a dark purple. Brilliant.

"Hey Danny!" He called running up the stairs and bursting into his room. "What do you think about this color?" But when he didn't get a reply he looked around and saw that Danny was no longer there, and his window was open. Confused, he changed back to his human form and went back down stairs to eat some fudge.

KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

Danny flew through the sky freely after catching Klemper, going in the general direction of his house, but not in any kind of rush. It was like the kid Grace said. Whenever he flew, it felt as if he left all of his cares and worries below.

"PHANTOM!!!" Somebody yelled. Danny halted in midair. Who would call him with that tone besides Paulina? He looked around and saw Grace sitting on a dirty apartment roof. He flew over and landed next to her.

"Hey!" He said good-naturedly, trying not to be awkward.

"Hi!" She exclaimed.

"How are you?" He asked. God he was so bad at this.

"I'm good! How are you?" Grace asked, totally oblivious.

"Umm—good. I… umm- I was just thinking about you!" Danny said, trying to strike up a conversation with whatever came to mind.

"Really?" She asked excitedly.

"Yeah, remember how you said last time that going on the roof kind of makes you feel like you leave everything below? I was thinking that it's kind of like that when I fly too." Danny explained.

"That would be so cool! You know… to be able to fly! I always have dreams about flying from building top to building top around the city, and you actually get to do it! Lucky…" She added on in the end.

"Yeah, it's pretty cool." Danny stated nodding. He looked down and saw that she was giving him puppy dog eyes. Oh no. She was begging for something…

"Well…" She stated.

"Well what?" Danny asked tentatively.

"Will you please will you take me flying?" Grace asked.

Danny paused. "Well- I don't know. It could be dangerous… and I don't have much time." The puppy dog eyes again.

"Please?!?"

"Your parents might not be okay with it… and I've got to meet someone soon and…"

"Pretty please?!?"

"Does it really have to be right now? I could probably take you later… but even then--"

Pretty please with sugar on top and little rainbow sprinkles and chocolate sauce and caramel sauce and gummy worms and crushed up Snickers and anything else you could think of putting on top?"

Danny sighed, fresh out of excuses.

"Please? Just for a second! I promise it won't take long." Grace said, giving him the biggest puppy dogs yet. Danny felt his resolve crumbling away.

They looked at each other for a moment. "Fine." Grace squealed. "Take my hand." Danny said. She quickly took it and Danny worked on extending his powers to her. Suddenly she felt weightless. When she realized she was floating a few inches off the ground she gasped.

"I'm flying!" She yelled. Danny smiled and lifted them a few more feet off the ground. "This is so cool!" She yelled up to Danny as if because they were flying it was harder to hear.

"Isn't it?" Danny asked smiling broadly. He let them hover for a moment longer before gently bringing them down. "I can fly you around town when I have more time."

"Why not right now?" She asked.

"Because I don't want your parents to think you randomly went missing. By the way… do they know you're up here?" He asked.

"Nope." Grace said without a hint of guilt. "Oh! That reminds me! I have a present for you!" She exclaimed and took a folded piece of paper out of her pocket and gave it to him.

Surprised, Danny opened it to see a picture of what was supposed to be him, he guessed. The grass was an squiggly green line and the sun had a face drawn it, and Danny, crudely drawn had a big smile on and was waving. "Wow! Thank you! I don't know what to say!" He exclaimed, touched.

"We were supposed to draw a picture about somebody that means a lot to us so I drew you!" Grace exclaimed. This didn't help Danny's speechless state. "Except for when everybody saw my picture, they didn't believe that I actually knew you." She said, a little down beat.

"Well… I really love the picture," Danny finally stated, "and you don't have to make the other kids believe if you know me or not. As long as we know the truth, that's all that really matters." He advised.

Suddenly a beep of some vehicle locking their doors was heard. Danny ignored it, but Grace tensed and ran over to the side of the roof. "Oh no! My mom's home early! I haven't cleaned my room!" Grace exclaimed. "I'll never make it on time!"

"Anything I can do?" Danny asked, wondering why she was panicking so much over a messy room.

"Umm… uhh… you could fly me down there!" Grace said. Danny realized what her scheme was.

"Okay. Fine." He said, going along with it. Grace tried not to smile. "What floor?" Danny asked.

"Second, and it's the last room to the right." Danny nodded and grabbed her hand. He turned them both intangible and Grace shrieked in delight.

Danny, knowing that is was about a six or seven story building, flew down through the building and stopped right outside her door. Her mom was already coming up the stairs. "Hurry!" She exclaimed and so Danny phased them through the door and Grace quickly led them to her room.

The front door opened. "Grace!" A woman's voice called.

"Yes mom!" Grace yelled from her room.

"Where are you?" Her mom asked.

"Cleaning my room!" Grace said glancing up at Danny.

"Okay, as long as you're working on it." Her mom said. Grace sighed.

"Thanks Danny!" She whispered. "Can I call you that? Or should I just call you Phantom?" She asked.

"You can call me Danny." He replied, smiling. "I'd better be going."

"Okay!" Grace exclaimed, and hugged him around the middle. "Thanks for letting me fly!"

"You're welcome." Danny said. Then he phased through the wall and flew off towards his house. Grace watched her best friend fly off through her window.

KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

Danny, having just gotten to his bedroom, transformed back human. He took the picture of him out of his pocket and put it in his dresser drawer. He ignored his ghost sense going off, telling him that his dad was nearby, and realized that he had forgot to tell Sam and Tucker about meeting Grace at lunch.

As he was digging through his backpack to find his cell phone, his dad walked by. When he saw Danny the laundry he had been carrying phased through his arms. "Hey! Where were you?" His dad asked.

"Right here." Danny replied.

"Not when I checked a few minutes ago." His dad accused.

"I was in the bathroom?" He almost asked.

"I was in there too." He stated narrowing his eyes.

"Which one?" Danny asked.

"The upstairs one."

"Well then that explains it! I was downstairs." Danny finished nervously.

"Oh." Jack said, forgetting about the pile of laundry in the hall and walking in to his room.

"Look! I was able to finally change the color!" He exclaimed, going ghost to show off his purple and black suit.

"Well, it's better than before." Danny stated.

"Can we start practicing now?" His dad pleaded.

"Now?" Danny asked wearily. Hid dad nodded excitedly. Danny sighed. "Ok." Jack jumped for joy.

"YES! TO THE LAB!" He yelled and dashed down the stairs. Danny walked behind him.

When they got to the lab Jack was still bouncing on the balls of his feet.

"Okay, dad. Let's start with the basics." Danny stated. This was going to be a long day. "As you know, some of the more basic things a ghost can do is—"

"Intangibility, invisibility, and flight. But I want to do stuff like that creep Phantom can! He can shoot ectorays-"

"Ghost rays."

"And he can shoot ice from his hand-"

"and eyes."

"And he has this yelling thing he does that can knock down buildings!"

"Ghostly wail. Wait- how did you know that last one?" Danny asked, thinking that his parents didn't know about that power. He didn't use it around them.

"I saw him once, fighting another ghost. About two weeks ago."

"Oh, you mean Ember. I didn't know you guys were there..." Danny said, thinking back. His dad shrugged. Luckily he didn't remember that Danny was supposed to be at the library that day so the comment passed unnoticed.

"Huh. Well anyways, it might take a while to get those powers. But like I said, we'll start with the basics. First, concentrate on flying. Becoming weightless. Stuff like that. It might help to jump at first. Just don't expect to hit the ground and you won't."

His dad nodded, excided. He closed his eyes and jumped. He landed with a thud. He got back up and tried again. Thud. And again, thud. Getting frustrated he started jumping up and down like a spring. Thudthudthudthudthud. Jack looked at his son, discouraged.

"You're not concentrating hard enough. You're just jumping. Just really think that you are floating off the ground. Put energy in to it." Jack closed his eyes again thinking extra hard. Nothing happened for a while. Jack opened one of his eyes and peaked out at his son.

"Keep concentrating!" Jack shut his eye again. Nothing happened for a while. Danny pulled up a chair. Right as he sat down though, Jack started to lift slowly off the ground. He hovered a foot above the ground, but he didn't seem to notice.

"Dad! Your flying!" Danny cheered on.

Jack opened his eyes, gasped, and fell back down.

"I flew!" His dad exclaimed.

"You need to keep concentrated if you want to stay up." Danny stated, "Try again."

Danny tried to stay excided for his dad, but he couldn't quite get the phrase, "this might take awhile," out of his head.

KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
