Sorry I don't have more for you but I've been lazy… I actually had this entire chapter typed out already them my flash drive decided to die on me. Sad day. I had pictures and other crap on there. Any way, I'm going answer reviews at the bottom since long intros can get annoying.

Discaimer: I DO NOT OWN Danny Phantom, Lie to Me, or any references whatsoever. The people who do are much more powerful and much more rich than this awkward author. I DO NOT MAKE ANY MONEY human, or other wise. All I get is smiles, laughs, and if I'm good some nice reviews. SO GO TAKE YOUR FINES AND SHOVE IT somewhere unpleasant because I am FLAT BROKE.

Have a nice day.

"Right there… she knows something about this." Ria pointed at the face of Jasmine Fenton. "And over here, he does to…" Ria then pointed to Daniel Fenton his face blown up onto a large screen, "These four are in it together… this one" Ria pointed to the small group of to the side then to Valerie, "Knows but she doesn't know what these four know."

"Thank you Torres, we now have a firm grip on the obvious." Loker said in his chair.

"It helps me to think out loud." Ria said looking at him. She played the video.

"Do you know why Lightman picked you five out, rather than any of the adults?" Pause. Ria looked at their faces.

"See, they know something, I think it has to do with the Phantom ghost." Ria played the tape watching. "This one his hiding a big secret, I'm sure it has something to do with this." Ria looked at Danny's face.

"Because my parents are ghost hunters." Ria paused it.

"That could be an answer, he's skirting around his secret… essentially telling things that aren't lies, but not exactly truth either." Loker said looking at the boy. The movie was playing again.

"Danny's best friend?" Pause.

"There…" Ria pointed to Danny's face, "Shame, pain, and ever so slight self loathing."

"I wonder if this happens often?"

"What?" Ria asked looking back at Loker who was throwing a football.

"Well, if they get questioned often, then maybe he's upset his friends got dragged into this. Maybe we can go at them one on one and see what they know about Danny." Loker threw the football into the air. Play.

"I'm his sister, I guess for the same reasons as him." Pause.

"He finds this amusing." Ria pointed to Danny, "I guess all their reasons aren't the same. And this girl over here…" Ria pointed at Valerie, "She doesn't know what ever secret these four do…" Play

"It was the result of ghosts." Valerie glared. Pause.

"Wow, that girl really hates ghosts." Loker and Ria turned, "What?"

"Are you looking for your father Emily?" Ria asked.

"No, I'm just curious, it's not everyday a town disappears and the entire inhabitants claim for it to be the work of ghosts." Emily shrugged.

"Why is Danny scared?" Loker asked. Danny off to the side was flinching at Valerie.

"Valerie just got done saying she hated ghosts." Ria said looking, "He looks hurt… and scared." Ria played it.

"Actually it was one really powerful ghost… Pariah Dark, the Ghost King…" Pause.

"That was the truth… or at the very least, they believe it. But he's defending someone… or possibly himself… though I don't know why he would defend himself from a verbal attack on ghosts, so I assume he's defending someone close to him." Ria thought out loud, then pressed play. They watched for a while.

"While she's gone why don't you tell me something about yourselves." Pause.

"Why is Danny so suspicious… and the way he scans the room… like he's looking for escape routes, or danger." Ria looked at the young raven-haired boy on the screen, "What is he waiting for?" play.

"I want to be an astronaut." Pause.

"There… a moment of carefree childhood dream…" play. Ria watched as Danny's face fell, "And then it gives away to something darker. Something is bugging this kid."

"Could be grades… I've seen his report card." Loker said. Ria nodded.

"Could be… we'll keep that in mind." Play

"Hey, I help you out to, who's the one who almost got ripped apart when that ghost dog attacked the school?" Pause.

"He says that ghost dog, meaning it something they don't associate with, but they way they say it is off… like they are purposely referring to it like that." Ria's eyebrows bunched up. Play.

"That… would be Valerie's lunch and the lunch lady." Danny smiled lightly rolling his eyes. Pause.

"That's an insider's joke for them…"

"Ria… I don't think the ghost dog has anything to do with the disappearance of the town… you should by pass that to the part where they talk about the ghost king." Loker said eyebrows up. Ria sighed.

"I guess you're right." She pressed play and played the video till the part where Torres came back. Pause.

"Right there as soon as he starts talking he opens the soda and takes a drink, then he does this again on and off during the story." Ria said pointing to the nervous boy on the screen.

"Well, he at least believes it's the truth. It's harder for people to do manual tasks while fabricating a lie." Loker swiveled in his chair.

"Maybe I could talk to him?" Emily volunteered looking at the screen, then she looked at the two adults, "What, he's likely to feel more comfortable talking to a kid his age."

"You'll have to talk to your father about that." Ria said, "But it could work…" Ria turned back playing the movie.

"Wait, wait, go back." Emily said, play it again.

"And if you did Danny Phantom wouldn't have been called invisobill for the first year he was here."

"That was a nightmare." Pause.

"Danny Phantom?" Emily asked, "that sounds like a weird name."

"So is invisobill." Loker smiled. Emily looked at the screen.

"I wonder why he has such a personal connection to this Phantom character?" Ria said looking at the tape.

"Keep playing, I'm sure we talked more about Phantom later." Loker said watching the video with interest.

"I think he's great, he's helped us out a lot on tough situations and he even saved the town from the ghostly invasion, in fact he's done it more than once." Pause.

"There, she'd looking at her brother… and he's practically glowing under her praise… thought he seems embarrassed by it to… but Phantom is a ghost right?" Torres asked looking over at Loker, "If it weren't for that I'd say Danny was Danny Phantom."

"Well they do have very similar names." Loker thought, "Maybe he's like a secret hero." Loker joked. Ria rolled her eyes and gave him the are-you-serious look.

"Maybe there is some connection… but I don't think that is it." Ria said.

"Sure just shoot down my superhero theory."

"Loker, I'm having a hard enough time believing it was ghosts, never mind a super powered teenager." Ria chuckled.

"True enough, but ghost aside, it would make sense." Loker smiled.

"Just watched the film." Ria rolled her eyes.

(Look, I put in a line break thing…)

I rolled out of bed after barely thirty minutes not able to sleep, just filled with anxiety. What was going to happen next… did they find anything out? What if they were calling the GIW right now?

I couldn't take it anymore; I pulled out my room key and went to the exercise room. At least this way I would be able to release some of the energy I'd been holding. The room was surprisingly empty. I took off my shirt feeling slightly self conscious but that all faded as I began to work out. I ran the treadmill first, making it up to twenty miles an hour without breaking a sweat before my brain started working and I slowed it down in case someone were to come in. After ward I lifted a few weights, I'd been working out more since the fitness exam realizing how bad in shape my human half was.

"Fenton?" I looked up. Oh crud… that was Dash, I quickly pulled on my t-shirt.

"Uh… I was just leaving." I said stepping away from the piece of exercise equipment. Crap. I finished pulling on my shirt outside the exercise room when I realized I left my card inside. I groaned knocking on the door. Dash smirked at me holding up the card and then he put it in the window where I could see it but no touch it. I knocked again. Dash just smiled and waved watching me. As long as he watched me I couldn't phase through the glass and grab it. I grew more and more frustrated. What a dick. I thought. Dash just smiled and continued to work out. I groaned falling to the ground angry. What I really needed right now was some water… and a punching bag. My ghost sense went off, seriously? Now… well at least I'd get a punching bag.

Ok… that was fun, I think I'm gonna end it there. Just got a little Danny in this chappie. Please read and review, and keep reading.

Merry Met.
