I haven't posted recently with this story so I thought I would at least write something. However, I cannot promise that these chapters will be long anymore but I will try!


Disappearing Act

It had been a few days since Adam and Simon left. Everything had gone smoothly so far and Adam would like to keep it that way.

"When do you want to snag the boy?" Simon broke through Adam's thoughts as they sat in the Limo outside of town.

We will do it at midnight tonight." Adam answered. "When it's time, I will hide in the shadows as you present yourself to the boy. He will morph into Phantom ahead of time, most likely, but that is okay. As long as we have Phantom, we can get him to show his human half but act like you know. Once he makes an appearance, I will catch him in one of my ghost boxes (think of the blue box Skulker had in Secret Weapons)."

"Sounds like a plan to me." Simon nodded his head to show he understood. Now all they had to do was wait until it was midnight.

Everyone in AmityPark had by now had long forgotten about the two detectives that road into town. The trio wasn't even suspicious for they reasoned it was just Sam's parents meddling with her life once more. The moon hung high in the sky as Danny tossed and turned in his sleep, a nightmare haunting his dreams. Sweat dampened his hair as he kicked at the blankets as if they were strangling him. He muttered in his sleep but most of the things he said were incoherent. Suddenly, his eyes snapped open and he shot up in bed panting hard. Realizing it was just a dream, he prepared to go back to sleep but his ghost sense stopped him. Huffing at the disturbance, the boy morphed and flew out into the cool nigh in search for the ghost that was causing trouble at this hour.

"Don't these ghosts know when bedtime is?" Danny yawned as he scanned town for a ghost.

Simon floated in the air, waiting for the boy to approach. Once the teen finally found him, he paused. There was no flying ectoblast, no nasty remark, and no kick or punch. Instead the boy stopped before the ghost, still rubbing his eyes like a little child. However, it was obvious the boy was wide awake and ready to attack.

"What is your business here?" The boy asked, cocking his head slightly to the side in curiosity. His eyes suddenly widened, "Wait a second, aren't you-," Whatever the boy was about to say was disrupted when Adam shocked the boy silly until he was unconscious and captured him in a ghost box.

"Mission accomplished." Adam muttered as he watched Simon grab the box before it plummeted to the ground. "Let's go before someone sees us."

"I'm surprised the boy was captured so easily." Simon muttered once they were on their way to Colorado.

"Yeah but it was good for us." Adam commented as he leaned back in his seat. "Like taking candy from a baby."

By the time they reached Adam's estate it was around six o'clock. The boy was still unconscious, most likely just sleeping, when they got there. Taking the ghost box, Simon released the teen into a medium sized enclosure in his house. It was about the size of two bedrooms. However, this enclosure was both human proof and ghost proof. In the enclosure was a bathroom, bedroom, and small living area with a television. Just because he was a captive didn't mean he had to keep the boy in a cage with nothing around him.

Meanwhile, Maddie entered her son's room to wake him up but gasped when she saw he wasn't there. Sam and Tucker had come over to pick up Danny so they wouldn't know where he was. Looking around the house, he was nowhere in sight. "Children, have you seen Danny?" Maddie asked once she was back downstairs, a panicky expression dominating her face.
