Jazz POV
"Sam, calm down and listen. My parents have Danny locked up in the lab. They think Danny Fenton is asleep in his bed right now! I need you to cover for him until I find out a way to let Danny go." I was really worried about Danny. I knew all about his little inner conflicts and the fact that he was scared of mom and dad capturing him. He had talked to me about it once, and I promised him it would never happen. But with my luck, of course it happened.
"Okay… um,… tomorrow morning, you just tell them that… Danny's coming to my house to… er… study. Yeah, study." Sam said through the phone. She sounded worried.
That plan sounded like it could work. I would be at school all day tomorrow, and mom and dad wouldn't have to worry about Danny coming home. But I had to try to get Danny out of the lab before my parents did something to him.
"Sounds good. I'll try to save him, Sam." I was going to make this work. I had to.
"Okay Jazz. Good night." Sam yawned through the phone. I was tired, too, but I had one last thing to do before I went to bed. I put the phone down and rushed over to my bedroom door, quickly and quietly opening it. I tiptoed down the stairs as fast as I could, my red hair swishing from left to right. I turned around the end of the stair case, and ran down to my destination. Seconds later, I stood before two large stainless steel doors. The doors of my parents' lab, to be exact.
My parents weren't stupid. Well, weren't too stupid. They didn't lock the lab with some old padlock. No, they locked it with modern technology; a pad where you had to type in the password. Luckily, my dad wasn't smart enough to put a very protective password. I typed in the letters as quick as I could:
FUDGE
I sighed for having such an idiotic father. (A/N: Okay, sorry. I just felt like putting something a little funny in this story…)
The doors creaked open, and I winced at the loud noise. If mom and dad heard that, I was dead! I could only imagine what they would say to me if they came down here right now.
I gasped as I noticed the sleeping form of Danny, lying on a metal table in the middle of the room. He looked so calm when he was sleeping; almost relaxed. But the way his eyes seemed to be shut tighter than normal told me he was still alert of the things around him. I looked around the monitor I was hiding behind, and took a step forward, not noticing a few wires caught around my right ankle. When I took that step forward, things behind me fell to the ground with the earsplitting sound of metal crashing to the floor. I turned around and looked at the mess; machines over the floor and wires everywhere. I promised I would pick that up later. So I ran towards a now delirious Danny, my bare feet slapping against the cold linoleum of the lab floor.
General POV
Maddie groaned and stirred in her bed next to her husband, Jack. They both awoke at the same time at the sound of clattering coming from the first floor.
"Phantom!" They both said at the same time.
"What's he up to?"Maddie whispered in a loud tone. She threw off her covers and put on her robe. Jack followed, and they made their way down to the lab, ready to kill Phantom if they had to.
Jazz POV
Unnatural, unsteady green eyes blearily stared up at me. "Danny?" I whispered, trying to wake him from his current state of tiredness.
"Wha- Jazz?" He asked, looking up at me. "Why are you down here? Mom and dad will kill you! Not to mention me!" He whispered loudly.
"Calm down, Danny. I called Sam," His eyes seemed to soften at her name. "and she said she'll cover for you. " I brushed some of his long bangs out of his face.
"How?" He barely whispered. I could see the look of pure worry on his face. My little brother was scared.
"Well, it looks like Danny Fenton is going to study at his Goth best friend's house." I smiled, and he giggled, too. "So, I have to get you out of here by tomorrow night."
He sighed, thinking the plan through in his head. "So, tomorrow morning you "bring me to school" and I'll "go home with Sam" at the end of the day. And you'll make sure mom and dad don't notice I'm gone, right?" I giggled at the way he said the parts that he wasn't really going to do sarcastically. But I couldn't resist the way he looked at me with pleading eyes.
"Yes." I promised. But then I heard footsteps from the other side of the door. "Oh crud."
"Jazz, GO!" He hissed. I ran to my previous hiding spot and shoved all the machines I had knocked over behind another machine. Then I jumped behind something as the doors opened.
"He's still sleeping… That's weird…" I heard my mother say. "Nothing seems out of place. Maybe we were just dreaming." I peeked out of my hiding spot to see mom walking over to Danny, who was fake-sleeping.
"He really does sleep…" Mom said in amazement.
"I'm really tired Mads. Can we go to bed now?" Dad asked, and mom nodded her head. She took one last threatening glance at Danny before closing the door.
I rushed over to him, only to notice his breathing low and shallow; he had fallen asleep again. He must've been really tired. I told him goodnight, and then rushed back to my room, too falling asleep.
The next morning: (Jazz POV)
"Jazz honey, where's Danny? I haven't seen him since yesterday." Mom asked me. If only I could tell her he was down in the lab, cuffed down to a freaking metal table.
"He's waiting in the car. He needs to get to school early today, Oh, and he's going home with Sam today. They need to study." I lied. This was all part of the plan, though.
"Oh, 'kay hon. Tell him I said good morning!" Mom yelled as I rushed out of the house and into my car.
"Sure thing!" I shouted back. I climbed into my car and set off down the street.
I didn't even notice the lone tear rolling down my cheek. I didn't know what I would do if this plan didn't pull through.
Did you like it?
If you haven't noticed yet, I'm trying to update every day, since I have nothing better to do with my summer.
