Chapter seven

You wanted proof

Danny sighs as he leans forwards in a pale seat, dressed in a suit he groans at the feeling of the collar held up by the tie, he looks over at Mark as he straightens the trench coat he had donned, forgoing his typical hooded leather and selecting a more business like thick cotton, the contact lenses were left out as well, leaving his dark green and blue eyes tinge with gold on show to the world.

'Why couldn't we have sent Danni again? I hate the UN they harp on about my "glorious leadership" skills all the time, it's been five damn years since the disasteroid for crying out loud.'

Mark laughs slightly and says

'I'm sorry, we did try to send Danni but they said no to her, and you seem to forget Danny, that when you did what you did with the disasteroid, you saved the world. I remember seeing girls at my old school covering text books with pictures of you, and when I went to college, one of the people in my group had your insignia tattooed on his arm. You can't escape that sort of thing easily Danny.'

Danny groans slightly at the mere mention of fan girls and says

'I still don't get why they insisted on me. Danni is pretty much me with a pair of tits.'

Mark once again chuckles as an attendant walks in and says

'They're ready for you sirs.'

Danny walks in to a large room with semi circular rows interspersed with individuals. Danny walks over to a large podium while Mark walks to a computer set off to one side.

'Ladies and Gentlemen of the United Nations, I am here to warn you of a growing threat that my young sister came here not too long ago to tell you about. You dismissed her as she had no proof, I am here after scouting of the ghost zone with proof of the threat of a war are as concrete as the floor this building rests upon.'

A sign to Mark brings up a projection of an image showing the cluster of ghosts.

'This picture was taken two days ago, and the next image was taken earlier today.'

Mark switches the picture for another showing the group of ghosts has grown remarkably.

'Team Phantom has predicted that this growth will continue until it reaches the point that it will stand up to any countries armed forces. This however does not make our defeat decided. While the force may be able to conquer a country with ease, it could hold no ground to that of a united force of every single country fighting under one flag; the flag of the alive. I ask you all to join forces with your fellow man, forget that you may be an enemy with your neighbour and remember, that the force mounted could end both of you.'

Mark walks on to the stage and says

'Our most recent projections put the mobilisation of this force at eight months from now, but that leaves you with very little time to decide, so we must get the decision right now.'

As Mark finishes talking, yelling escapes the room as they all discuss the options they have before them. Mark and Danny hear many yells of never and with a simple look between the two young men, they take to the air and begin to multiply. A Danny yells 'QUIET!' and silence befalls the room as the leaders of the United Nations look up at the forty or so ghosts floating above them all. Danny yells

'Any country that believes it could stop this tiny force of ghosts on your own, stand up.'

A small number of leaders rise to their feet and Mark swoops down on them all, placing in their awaiting hands, a single ecto gun and says

'If you think you can handle this few ghosts; try to shoot us before we disarm you.'

Ectoplasm flies through the air and impacts the wall behind which some of the ghosts were in front of mockingly Danny says

'I've seen an old woman fight better then you with one of those.'

Mark yells

'I wouldn't count Sam's grandma, she's something else dude. I think she might be a teenager in disguise.'

Danny chuckles slightly as he turns the ecto gun in four different men's hands with well aimed shots. After less then a minute after they handed out the weapons, they were a twisted and smouldering mess of twisted metal. Danny stands back at the podium and says

'I know none of you are really familiar with combat these days, and none of you are used to fighting an enemy that has been dead for a long time, but it shows how you would hold up against a ghost invasion, fighting under one flag would see you armed with the latest ghost weaponry and trained to fight against ghosts, with our skills and your man power, we can stop this threat.'

Danny walks in to the lab at Fenton works and says

'We have the UN on our side and messages are being sent to all non United Nations countries and we should have word within the hour as to the largest armed force ever.'

Sam smiles slightly and says

'I've decided to doss down here with all that's going on so I'm going to grab some stuff from my place.'

Danny smiles and says

'Would you like some help Sam?'

The young woman looks at Danny and agrees.

Sam walks in to her house and a voice yells

'Samantha, would you come in here please?'

Sam walks in to the kitchen and sees her parents sat around a table

'What's the matter? I'd like to get this over with quickly, we are rather busy at Fenton Works right now.'

Mrs Manson nods slightly and says

'We know about the threat of war and we want you to have nothing to do with it Samantha.'

Sam looks at her parents in shock and says

'What do you mean?'

Mr Manson looks up and says

'War is no place for a woman such as yourself Samantha. We want you away from that Fenton boy as soon as possible.'

Sam throws glares at the two adults sat in front of her and she yells

'What the fuck do you think you can do about me fighting with Danny, I've been by his side from the start and I will be there at the end. You have no pull on my life any more. I'm nineteen and that means you can no longer order me around.'

Mr Manson slams as hand down on the wooden table and says

'Whilst you live under my roof Samantha, you will obey my rules!'

Sam's eyes burn with anger as she yells

'Well I won't be living here much longer will I?'

Sam walks out of the room and calls to Danny.

'Danny, do you think you could get some one to swing around in the Fenton Assault Vehicle soon, I think I have a lot of stuff to move to storage until I can find an apartment.'

Danny shakes his head and says

'You can take a spare room in Fenton Works.'

An angry voice cuts through the young couple

'I suggest you step away from my daughter.'

Sam looks at her irate father and growls

'I suggest you step away from us.'

The glare from a battle hardened man is a scary thing to see, and Mr Manson was unfortunate enough to currently receiving such a glare, and he shrank away

'Mr Manson, I would appreciate it if you did not harass my closest friend in such a way, she is no longer a resident of this household, and although you may be her father, it doesn't mean you know who she is.'

Danny turns around and says

'Jazz, can you pull the RV around to Sam's house, we have some moving to do, and can you get Danni to ready a spare room for Sam.'

Sam smiles slightly as she helps move the last of stuff in to her new room inside the Fenton Works, right next door to Danny. Her smile is lost as she thinks of how her dad reacted, when her phone rings and snaps her out of her reverie, looking at the caller ID shows her one word she was hoping to see; Grams.

'Hey Grams.'

'Well done Sam, you showed my stuck up son. It's about damn time this happened.'

Sam smiles slightly as she says

'So, you're not mad at me?'

'Why would I be mad at you?'

Sam shuffles her foot nervously and says

'I don't know.'

'How could I be mad at you for standing up for yourself Sam?'

Danny chuckles as he sets down a desk with Mark on the other end. Sam smiles once again but blushes upon the next comment

'It's that Danny Fenton that you've moved in with isn't it? Isn't he the one with the nice ass?'

Mark leans against the wall laughing as Danny blushes.

'He's in here and he can hear you for crying out loud!'

Sam blushes even more as he grandmother yells

'Don't do anything I wouldn't if I were you Sam.'

Danny slowly drops from sight with a glorious blush on his face as Mark drops to the floor laughing.
