I do not own Danny Phantom, which is owned by Butch Hartman. I also do not own Pokemon. Sorry for this fail chapter.

In Amity Park...

Maddie and Jack Fenton both began to slowly wake up. They felt sore, and their heads swam. Their vision was blurred, and after a minute of blinking, both of their vision became focused. They remembered what happened and looked around wildly. They saw that they were chained to the wall, and that Jazz was right on Jack's left, Tucker on Maddie's right, looking just as confused and chained.

The lab didn't look any different- the people that were there, however, were gazing into the mysterious swirling green vortex that was the portal. Jack and Maddie turned their attention to the others for a moment.

"Jazz, Tucker," Maddie hissed quietly. "How'd you two get stuck here?"

Jazz sighed. "We came here, I to my room to do my homework, Tucker was about to come down to the lab to see what you guys were doing. But as soon as we entered the house, there were two floating purple things that released yellow-green gas, knocking both of us out. We woke up here." Jazz explained.

"Where are Danny and Sam?" Tucker asked. Maddie worriedly shook a little.

"We-we're not entirely sure. They made a portal they came out of, shoved Danny and Sam into the portal, which closed, and knocked us out. Oh, I hope they're alright..." Maddie muttered. Everyone looked just as worried, and Jack, though as anxious, had faith.

"I-I think both will be alright. If Danny saved the planet, he and his spooky-ooky bat girlfriend can find a way." He said proudly. Jazz and Tucker nodded, and Maddie tried to smile a little.

Finally, Petrel turned his attention to them, and he grinned, walking up to them.

"Well, well, well. Appears you all are awake finally. Good." He said. Everyone only glared at him, which he scoffed at.

"Oh, please. Like you can do anything. We can't just let you go, you know. You'd run to the police..." He said nonchalantly.

"Danny will save us!" Jazz spat out. Everyone but Petrel look at her in surprise. Petrel tsked.

"Tsk tsk. What a fiery girl. Or are you?" He asked, placing a finger under her chin. Everyone instantly snapped at that.

"DON'T TOUCH HER!" They all shouted, Tucker sounding particularly offended. Petrel gave an amused look at Tucker, while the Fentons (while just about as angry with Petrel for touching Jazz), gave him a surprised look.

"Well, someone's protective of her. I wonder why?" He asked, strolling over to Tucker. Tucker blushed.

"I-I...Uh...S-she's Danny's sister. That's w-why." He claimed. Jazz looked surprised, but was blushing, as well, by Tucker's actions. Maddie and Jack would've looked slightly amused by this, had they not been in the situation they were in right now. Petrel smirked.

"But of course. But I must ask, who is this 'Danny' you keep speaking of?" He asked. Jack instantly replied before anyone else could.

"He is our son who you threw into that portal with his girlfriend." Jack spat, glaring harshly at him. "Not to mention, he's the one who could've stopped you in a heartbeat if he was still here!" Petrel looked curious.

"How? How could he defeat my Pokemon? He's a mere human boy." Petrel said with an eye-roll. Maddie spoke up.

"That's for us to know, and for you to find out shortly. But...What are Pokemon?" She asked. Petrel smiled and looked at Percival, who was still examining the swirling green portal.

"You were right, Percival, when you said they don't have Pokemon here. Interesting." He said, looking back at them. He shrugged.

"Well, seeing as you're captive here, you DO deserve some answer to that question. Pokemon are creatures we keep in my world for experimentation and money-making profits. But most of the population sees them as companions, not for money. I must wonder why. Those things that knocked you out earlier? That's a type of pokemon called a 'Koffing'. I keep them to battle persistent trainers who often challenge Team Rocket. They want to use their Pokemon for 'good'. Hmm. Shame they don't join- many of they could go up in ranks quickly." He said. The group before him looked horrified.

"You-you torture these poor things? For what, money? You guys really ARE sick." Jazz said in contempt. Petrel only laughed heartily.

"My dear, we are not 'sick'. We are misunderstood. There is a difference- it's just hard for people to notice sometimes, but yet so simple." He claimed. "And, thus for my answers, I would like some of my own questions to be catered to. What is that magnificent portal your parents over there, I assume, made? Percival hasn't stopped inspecting it since you fell unconscious."

"Why should we tell you?" Jack snapped crossly. Percival only gave them a haughty look.

"I expected such an answer. No worries to us, we'll find a way to make you talk." He said, pulling a poke-ball from his pocket, and pressing a button. Out came a large, rat-like Pokemon with golden fur, light on the stomach and chest, narrowed eyes, and gigantic teeth. It didn't look friendly, either.

"Or maybe my Raticate will." He said, stepping back. As the Raticate began to advance, starting with Tucker, he slid back against the wall to try to avoid it, fearful of the giant rat's teeth. It stood up, made an intimidating shriek, and was about to strike down on Tucker with a Hyper Fang, before Maddie finally shouted.

"Alright, alright! We'll tell you. Just put the over-sized rat back in it's...Ball-thing." She said hastily. Petrel grinned, made a clicking sound for the Raticate to come back. It turned around, and as Petrel opened the poke-ball, it was sucked back in. He smugly crossed his arms, waiting for an answer. Maddie sighed.

"That is a portal to the Ghost Zone- an endless world accessible via natural portals which open and close at random times- but when closed, often to never be opened again. We made this artificial one for scientific research." She said. Percival looked astounded, and Petrel curious.

"So, a world to ghost-type Pokemon?" He asked. The group looked confused at that.

"Uh, what?" Jazz and Tucker asked at the same time.

"Guess not, then." Petrel said with a shrug. Then he gave a careful look at Maddie. "I feel you're not telling me everything. Oh well, I suppose enough is enough for now. Ta-ta." He said, turning his back, and walking to Percival, who turned from the ghost portal for the moment to continue his work on the portal to the Pokemon world. They all sighed in relief.

"I wonder how Danny and Sam are doing..." Tucker muttered uneasily.
