AN: Hey. I just want to say thank you so much for your support and patience. I hope you enjoy this.

Chapter 4

Vlad grinned as he looked in the mirror. Everything was going according to plan. Danny was weak and useless, more than usual. He had Danny constantly fighting useless ghosts, and all the other pawns were where he wanted them. This time he would be guaranteed his desire.

"You wished to see me?" a deep voice spoke from behind him.

Vlad smiled his pointed teeth showing, "Yes, I remember you telling me that you are the best ghost hunter in the ghost zone."

Skulker puffed out his chest in pride, "The best, indeed!"

"Yet, I hear that you cannot even beat the half human ghost child," Vladd scoffed.

Skulker scowled, "I assure you that I will capture him."

Vlad nodded, "Good, then I require your assistance, again."

Skulker smiled, "What would you like me to do, this time."

Vlad grinned, his red eyes twinkling, "That is precisely what I wanted to hear."

Danny groaned as he lay on his bed. He had never felt so ill, in his life. The stomach flu was like a simple cold compared to this. No matter what form he took he was always sick. Jazz had done her best to keep his mom away, but even Danny was concerned about this. If another ghost came to Amity Park, he was done for.

"Danny, are you feeling better?" a gentle voice asked.

Danny looked up to see Sam smiling sadly at him.

Danny groaned, "No. I feel like a truck hit me."

Sam frowned, "I am sorry."

Tucker walked into Danny's bedroom, "Hey man, what's going on?"

Danny scowled, "That is exactly what I would like to know."

Tucker looked over at Danny and grimaced, "Dude, you like a ghost…"'

Sam and Danny both glared at Tucker.

Tucker chuckled nervously, "Hehe, guess I chose the wrong wording."

Sam rolled her eyes, "You think?"

Danny groaned again as another spasm shook his body, "What did Vladd do to me?"

Sam frowned, "Another question is why?"'

Danny thought on this a moment, "I don't know. Your right, he has to have a bigger plan than just trying to make me miserable."

Tucker nodded, "He is up to no good."

"I've got to find out what exactly he is up to," Danny stated determined, trying to sit up.

Sam quickly pushed Danny back down, "No, Danny you aren't fit enough to walk down the stairs, let alone face Vladd."

Danny wanted to protest, but he knew Sam was right.

Jazz walked in the room, "Alright, he needs his rest, so all visitors out."

"Hang in there, man," Tucker whispered as he left the room.

Sam looked at Danny, her eyes hard to read.

"Don't do anything stupid," she whispered and walked out of the room.

Danny sighed, as he lay on his bed, alone once more. He looked up and was startled to find Jazz standing at the foot of his bed.

"Danny? Are you sure you'll be alright?" Jazz whispered.

Danny mustered the best smile he could give her, "Yeah. I must have got a ghost flu bug or something."

Jazz nodded, "Well, then get some rest, little brother."

Danny nodded, "Ok, Jazz."

Jazz crept out of the room, and shut the door behind her.

Danny moaned again as he lay in the dark. He didn't want to rest, he wanted to stop Vlad. He needed to know what Vlad had done to him, and why. Danny yawned, but he would have to wait. He just didn't have the strength he needed. He wished he'd known what Vlad had done and how to reverse it. He looked around, for once, why could Desiree be around to grant this one wish? Danny sighed as he drifted to sleep, soon, he would be strong enough to consult Vlad and stop him.
