Skulker and Ember were in his mirror once again. Danny felt a shock just pulse through his veins he closed his eyes to slow his heart rate. He slammed the door shut. He noticed that the bathroom was ridiculously spacey for one girl to be living in this house alone.

"Is this mirror thing going to be a regular thing with you two?" he whispered with annoyance in his tone.

"Unfortunately yes, but we can come out if we want" he said looking at his thumbs circling each other. He walked through the mirror, like it was a liquid wall

"Lighten up Danny. It's Sunday afternoon!" Ember followed Skulker through the glass.

"Go find some hot spots around town, or go to the mall, or look around the house for a little while." Danny didn't care about having fun. He wanted to know why they were there.

"Why are you all here?" Danny looked at Ember knowing that she wouldn't lie.

"If you really must know, we are watching your cousin to make sure that the man she's dating doesn't cause her any problems."Ember explained with a sigh.

"Yeah, and if that guy even tries to make her feel half bad, I'll pull his head off, and be all over that gal." Skulker's remarks made Danny feel a bit sick.

"Uhh hello? That's my cousin! Do you mind?" he frowned at Skulkers remark.

"Sorry, but isn't she a beaut?" he asked Danny. Apparently Skulker was one of the many men that sort of had a thing for Caitlyn.

Ember was still behind him, and made a sad face. Danny saw it, but pretended not to. He knew he fought with Skulker and Ember a whole lot, but it seemed like Ember was hurt.

"Well I don't know about Caitlyn, but all I know is that I've seen some pretty ghosts that are very gorgeous." he winked at Ember, hopefully making Ember feel better. Ember smiled, but Danny thought that if it didn't come from Skulker, then it meant nothing to Ember. Danny glanced back at Skulker.

"Why do you guys even care? She's just a girl from Indiana. This has nothing to do with you guys." Danny crossed his arms turning his back to them. Skulker put a his massive hand on Danny's shoulder, and spun him around.

"Listen ghost child, we just want to make sure this secret admirer of hers doesn't make her unhappy." Skulker made an annoyed face at Danny.

"Skulkers right, Danny. This sort of thing happens more than you can imagine." Ember replied with a careful tone. "What if you made that Sam girl unhappy? We would watch out for her too." Ember said with a smile. Danny got red.

"Sam's not . . . she's just . . . whatever. Just get back into the mirror." Danny said pushing them up against the mirror.

"In you go." he said shoving the bodies back in.

"Oh Alright!" Skulker moaned. They gave up, and slipped in. Skulker turned back to face Danny. Danny looked at Skulker confused.

"Do you know who it is she's dating?" Danny asked with a bit of grief in his voice. Skulker replied.

"Not yet" he shrugged.

"We're trying."

"Hmm." Danny smiled. "Well I get to meet him at dinner. I'll fill you in afterwards." Ember smiled, and turned away. Skulker almost forgot something else to say.

"Of course you know that Caitlyn's-HEY!" Danny turned the circular mirror to the wall. Skulker was shaking the mirror from behind. "Danny you don't know how much you're gunna pay for this after this vacation is over!" he said sounding like he was very angry. Danny smiled, and left the bathroom.

Danny thought that Ember's idea to explore the house was a good idea. He decided look around the huge place. He looked around all three floors. He found a library eventually. The library was on the first floor. It was phenomenal. He had never seen such a large home library. He thought it must have been the biggest room in the house. The books were very big in thickness but in size they were smaller than his text books. Most of them looked like they were romance stories.

"Wow" he laughed to himself "I guess I know which side of the family Jazz got it." There was one that read, THE KINGDOMS LAST FLIGHT. He felt like there would be a neat picture on the cover. He grabbed it's spine, and pulled the book off the shelf. There was a small clicking sound, and to his right a large bookcase pulled to it's side. Danny jumped back a bit from the bookcase revealing a large lab. He walked over to it. 'No way' he thought in his mind.

"That is cool!" he pronounced each word with emphasis. He dropped the book on the ground, and walked into the lab, looking around. He looked in the corner. It held something familiar. It was a ghost portal. 'What?' he thought confused. On the other side of the lab, he saw Caitlyn. She didn't see him. She looked like she was ready to do something.

Suddenly there were two white rings around her tiny waist. Her Brownish black eyes turned a rich blue. Which was once beautiful chocolate colored hair turned a snowy white color. It looked like a white curtain down her back. She had a large dress that was a stylish black and white. It reminded him of his suit he wore when he turned into a ghost. She looked unsurprised of her own transformation, and slowly lifted into the air. He wanted to stop her before she could get away.

"Caitlyn?" Danny scared her. Caitlyn swiftly turned her face toward Danny. She let out a loud gasp, and fell out of the air, collapsing on to her back. Danny moved over her. Her eyes staring at Danny. Her body wasn't moving at all from it's position on the floor. He was about a foot from her face. Danny thought it was much more wiser to turn, run, and try to forget what he saw altogether, but he was trying to comprehend what amazing thing had just happened before his eyes. Caitlyn's face locked him in his position. She looked straight into his eyes terrified that her secret was known. Danny looked at her like he was looking at a chicken with no head. Caitlyn looked like she was about to pass out from the shock of being found out. Danny finally put the shock aside. He turned into his ghost form, and held out a hand to Caitlyn to help her off her back.

"You're not the only one Caitlyn. You really aren't" Danny said with his gloved hand still outstretched.
