Okay so I made quite a few changes and additions! I feel a little better with this chapter now so I shall be starting on the next one ASAP! I'm also writing a Miraculous Ladybug fanfic in my notebook. Don't worry I will be posting the full thing all at once so you won't have to wait (if you read it that is) and it will be after this one is finished.
~You're running in circles
to find the way out
You're not gonna find it
Until you've let it all
Burn down
You're not gonna make it
Not gonna make it

Cold Kingdom 'Let it Burn'
Sam PoV
"What are you two doing in here?" I Dean calls out from the lab entrance, leaning against the door frame with crossed arms. I walk a bit further down the stairs to get a better look at our intruders.
'Oh.' I raise my brows in curiosity at the sight of Danny's friend, Sam, and the boy I saw in the school, both frozen in place. The girl, Sam, is holding a small gun and the boy seems to have just loaded something into the... Specter Speeder... 'This family may have a lot of...interesting gadgets but their naming skills are... interesting to say the least.'
"Sam, we don't have time for this!" The boy loudly whispers to Sam, both looking equally... anxious? Sam shakes her head, snapping out of the shock, and brings her thumb to her mouth, only placing the tip of her nail in between her teeth.
"Shit!" Sam mumbles through her teeth and I find myself shocked at their reaction. Shouldn't they bee, I don't know, at least a little scared or nervous that they got caught breaking into someones' home?
"So care to explain why you two broke into the Fenton's lab?" Dean asks again, more authority in his tone than before. I can tell he's just as curious as I am as to why they would sneak into their friend's house.
"And where is Danny?" I ask noticing the lack of said teen.
The boy walks across the room and stops next to Sam. The two give each other concerned looks- they turn around and begin whispering, quieter this time so it's difficult to make out what they are saying but I can make out some of the things they say.
"...should we do... I don't know... don't have time... Danny... Vlad... danger... planning this time... never just... houses... have any choice... take them... not going to... We can't keep standing around!"
Dean and I stare in confusion as they continue their 'meeting' for a few more seconds.
Sam suddenly raises her voice to normal talking. "Okay! Okay! I get your point- but can we trust them?!"
'What? Trust us?" The two turn to face us.
"Seriously, what is gong on?" I ask.
"There's not much time so we'll just have to explain on the way- but you two have to SWEAR to never- NEVER! Tell anyone what we are going to tell you." Sam glares and she walks over to us- gun now lifted, pointing at me. I see Dean's face turn to that of anger and he tenses, ready to pounce at a second's notice.
She looks over to Dean, gun following, and continues, unfazed by Dean's reaction- the boy however looks as though he is terrified of what he might do.
"And No matter what..." Her voice is deathly serious. "You must NOT hurt Danny. Ever!" She lowers the gun but I can tell Dean is still on high alert. "No matter what Vlad has done to him." She adds quietly. If I weren't a trained hunter I would have missed it.
"Why the hell should we agree to that- you just threatened us with a gun." Dean snaps and folds his arms.
"First of all," Sam interjects, "That was just to get my point across. I don't care who you two are, Danny is far more important to me than the opinions of a couple of ghost hunters I'll never see again after this is all over and they failed to accomplish what they came to do."
Dean and I stare wide-eyed at the teenage girl in front of us. It's obvious she cares for Danny, however, she still hasn't answered our question.
I decide to be the bigger person, "We agree. But why would we hurt Daniel? Exorcisms can easily be accomplished without the victim being harmed too badly. Also, who is Vlad and what does he have to do with Danny?"
This time it's the boy who speaks up- and rather loudly in a slightly high pitched tone, "Enough! Danny needs our help and you two are wasting our time. If you're not coming, fine! But we are leaving now! With or without you." He quickly makes his way to the front of the vehicle. Sam looks mildly impressed but agrees and follows.
"You want answers, you'd better get in quickly." She announces.
She walks up to a pad next to the ghost portal. She pushes the green button and the doors open, revealing a green swirl before rushing back to the vehicle.
My eyes widen in surprise and disbelief. Dean and I honestly did NOT believe Jack when he said that thing was a portal to the ghost world. I'm still skeptical but with all the shit I've seen up until now, anything is possible I guess... Even a zone for ghost-like creatures, I guess. Hell, I've been to Hell already so...
I feel a more-than-soft tap on my shoulder.
"What are you doing?" Dean asks as he quickly follows. "Come on!" I nod and follow him.
"The two of you have a lot explaining to do." Dean informs. "And I mean a lot." We get to the entrance to find there is not enough room.
"Like where the hell are we supposed to sit, 'cuse one I am not sitting on Sammy's lap and he sure as hell ain't sitting on mine. Sasquatch here would kill me under his enormous size." Dean jokes, earning him a hand to the back of the head from me.
"Ouch!" He chuckles, "Okay I deserved that one."
The boy sighs annoyingly loud and nods.
"One second." He says as he pushes a button, opening a small door to a back space.
"Thanks..." Dean mumbles and we climb in.
"Name's Tucker. I'm Danny's best friend." That answers that question.
"I'm Dean. This is my brother Sam... Hunters" Dean introduced, unsure of whether or not to use ghost in front of it.
"I know." He responds rather bluntly.
We squeeze through the door, I find it very cramped but we manage to fit, standing beside each other.
"Ready?" Sam asks as she stands up, holding a... boomerang...
"Ready." Tucker nods, pressing a few buttons.
"Find Danny." She says, throws it, and then quickly sits down. The roof closes immediately after the boomerang enters the portal.
"Did that?" Dean starts- once again getting interrupted.
"It uses Danny... unique DNA to locate him anywhere." Sam exclaims.
Before Dean or I can ask she continues.
"I'll explain in a minute. Hurry Tucker, before we loose it."
"On it! Hold on guys." Tucker announces.
"To what?!" Dean cries out, gripping the sides of the doorway.
"Getting ready for take-off." I see more buttons being pressed and the... ship? Begins to rock, lifting off the ground.
"The hell!?" Dean let's out a string of 'oh hell no' and 'you have got to be kidding me' and we shoot into the ghost portal.
Dean's pressing against the corner of the wall and- Well, this does kind of resemble a plane so his discomfort makes sense.
"What the hell." I exhale in surprise when I see the green surrounding us outside the ship. There are a ton of floating doors surrounding us but we fly in the middle where there's a clearing.
"Explain. NOW!" Dean orders in his 'no bullshit' tone.
"Okay, okay-" Tuckers replies.
"...Sam..." I hear Sam scoff and I imagine her rolling her eyes. She turns to face us, leaning over the seat.
"Okay, so I'm sure you know the existence of ghosts. Mr. Fenton would have explained all of that" She starts. "And I'm sure you are here because you've heard off the Ghost boy."
Dean and I nod.
Dean explains, "Yeah, my brother and I believe your friend might be being used as a meat suit by him."
I can tell by the way Tucker turns around and gives us a questioning look that they have no clue what Dean is talking about.
"What my brother means, is we believe he may be possessed by one of the ghosts.
"Well, we can promise you two Danny is not exactly... possessed- at least not this time." She states.
"What do you mean by not this time?" I ask calmly, I have a small feeling I know where this is going but I continue to listen.
"He was before, it was by the spirit a kid who was bullied so bad he took his own life. Well, the spirit thought Danny was a bully and decided to 'teach him a lesson' by taking his body and locking him in his mirror." Sam explained.
"What?!" Dean and I questioned in shock.
"Who exorcised the ghost?" I asked.
"Well, I don't know about that but Danny managed to trap him back in his mirror, with our help. After that he broke it to make sure it could look into our realm ever again."
"I've never heard of getting rid of a spirit without exorcising it or it leaving on its own." I mumble.
"You said spirit-" Dean inputs, " I thought you all referred to these things- which are definitely not by the way- as ghosts? Why is this one a spirit and not a ghost?"
"Well, the ghosts that usually attack are all green and as far as we know they aren't created from people when they die. We're still learning ourselves, but Danny's idea is that they are all created from someone's desires, like the Box Ghost for example he's mostly just a nuisance who likes to use boxes as weapons."
"HEY!" Someone yells from outside the ship. "I RESENT THAT!" Dean and I see a human-like creature floating in front of the window. He looks chubby and his skin is a glowing green. He's wearing overalls with gloves and a beanie. His eyes are red and he looks angry, but it's hard for me to be scared of him considering all the worse things I've seen.
"YOU WILL ALL KNOW THE TERRIFYING POWER OF THE BOX GHOST!" He continued to yell while keeping up with the ship.
"I take it that's the Box ghost?" Dean lets out a snort. I can tell he's thinking how lame the 'ghost' is.
"Yeah," Tucker turns around and answers, "And sorry-" He turns back to the ghost and goes to press a button, "But we don't have time to deal with you right now." He pushes a red flashing button and suddenly the Box ghost lights up and he lets out a comedic scream. We then pass him up and he no longer follows.
"What the hell was that?" And are all the 'ghosts' here as lame as that one?" Dean asks.
Sam answers this time, " That was a ghost ray, basically it's like a taser but for ghosts." She suddenly get an angered look. "And no. There are far more dangerous opponents, Skulker and Vlad for example. There was Pariah Dark, but he's no threat anymore."
"Okay, okay. So we get that these 'ghosts' are both laughable and dangerous, but that explains nothing about why we would want to hurt Danny, who the hell the Vlad dude is, or what the Ghost boy and his role in all of this." Dean folds his arms to his chest.
Tucker and Sam give worried glances at each other then nod.
Sam sighs and responds. "Vlad is a really bad guy, he's after Danny's mom because of a really weird crush he has for her. He's out to basically kill or ruin Danny's dad out of jealousy. And right now he has Danny and is doing who-knows-what to him. The fastest way for us to get to his mansion is to take the ghost portal and since we still haven't mapped this place out yet we have to use the boomerang to track Danny."
"I thought that thing was to tack down ghosts?" I asked, remembering what Jack had told us earlier today.
"Well, you see..." Sam pauses. "Danny is half ghost. More accurately, Danny is the Ghost Boy."
This is NOT where I thought she was going.
