Ember's Pov
I let my jaw drop
THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL I AM GETTING IN TO THAT THING AND IM ALREADY THERE!
There is literally a bus version of that stupid spectre speeder in the middle of the room with Mr Fenton's idiotic face plastered on the side with the usual moronic grin, the man himself babbling mindlessly of the things it can do and the rules for the trip, sounding somewhat like a rollercoaster instructor and operator while talking, taking every advantage to embarrass Sparky to the point where I could see the jocks plotting how to take advantage of it
I tried my hardest to ignore the fact almost everyone was looking at me, trying to invade my personal space, gripping my arms so tight as they were crossed that, if not for my sweater, well, Danny's sweater, I would have punctured my arms with my nails, gritting my teeth I waited for the Fentons to stop blabbering on about insulting things about ghosts I would rather not think about, all I heard was when we were told to get in
It seemed they were all waiting for me, being polite and wishing to sit next to me, I felt a tap on my shoulder and I saw Danny bowing elegantly, a smirk on his face, I instantly knew what he was doing, I held out my hand, fluttering my eyelashes
"Mercedes, it is so wonderful to see your beauty again" he said, taking my hand and pressing a kiss to it, I couldn't hold back my laugh, I proceeded to curtsey, head low
"Edmond Dantes, you are too kind, I fear you have stolen my heart" I said dramatically, trying to stop myself from laughing, something few knew about Danny and I, we were big Musical fanatics, he has a surprisingly strong and captivating voice, I mean, the modern day songs meant nothing when compared to his rendition of Defying Gravity
He laughed, rolling his eyes
"Really? That is the best 'Mercedes' you can do? The Count of Monte Cristo was a heartbreaking tale" I raised an eyebrow, putting my hand on my hip, getting in character, I whimpered, pretending to cry, I gasped
"Edmond, Villefort told me you were executed" I said, stepping close to him, letting the crying become more believable
"Did he?" Danny mused calmly as I let out a quiet sob, coming closer
"Oh god-" he cut me off
"Countess, you are mistaken, back to the Mondego" he said and I store in horror, shaking my head
"No" I said brokenly
"Madame, I am only-" I never let him finish as I cried my refusal
"Stop it, STOP IT!... Stop it" I said, clutching his shirt, he looked away, I cried, my face in my hands, I heard laughing, I wiped away the forced tears and smirked as he laughed
"Better? I'm sure I could do more to prove my point but I dare not corrupt the innocent of mind" I said elegantly and he rolled his eyes
"Get your butt in there, you're making a rather distracting scene" he said, I winked at him, walking it, making sure to sashay my hips, just for our amusement, he looked back and grinned
"We going to get going or what?" he asked, I had to stifle a laugh at their slacked jaws and speechlessness, each quickly filing in, we beat the A-listers to the back seats, 3 seats then the next row of seats for the other 3, myself on centre right and, Sparky sat next to me in the middle, Dash walked up to me and crossed his arms
Danny's Pov
"Move Fenton, back is where the cool kids sit, and that means that you can't sit here" I rolled my eyes and Ember hugged my arm, looking up innocently
"But I would be sooooo bored without Sparky next to me, he isn't vain or self-absorbed like most people and this is the only way we can sit with Sammy, Tucker and Valarie and everyone knows I'm a bit destructive when I am bored" she said and he glared at me before he left
'Sammy' sat on my opposite side, she had this thing about sitting by the window, as did Valarie so Tuck sat closest to me in the front row, Jazz on the other side of me, since it was so noisy from everyone talking, Tuck leaned over to talk to me
"Dude, since when are you and Ember so close? I think it's pissing off Sam" I glanced at Sam who had her arms crossed, slouching in her chair, boots against the back of the chair in front, looking outside, deep in thought, looking to my other side, Ember was leant against the wall, knees up knowing I wouldn't look down and that only I could have seen, she didn't bother about adjusting her skirt that would show off whatever she was wearing underneath, her head was back, resting it against the wall, her eyes closed as she hummed, a position I would find her in often
If I told them the truth, it would break them, so a little white lie would have to do… not that there isn't truth in it
"Ember has been taking care of Neytiri, since I can't be in the Ghost Zone 24/7 and we all know how much of a nuisance she is when she is bored" I said, he looked absolutely confused
"Neytiri?" he asked questioningly, the others now paying attention to the conversation, I furrowed my brow, why did he sound confused, I had told the-
OH SHIT!
My eyes widened in horror, how badly I fucked up rolling around and around in my head and Ember laughed
"Oh my god, you forgot to tell them… ouch… I can't breathe… it's too funny… I can't-" I cut her off with a glare and she sat there stifling her laughing as I let my head sink in to my hands
"Last year, the week of finals, ya know, when I had finished early and left for a while?" they nodded and I rubbed the back of my neck nervously
"Uh… it was Danielle's Name Day, she didn't feel independent being called that so we all helped her decide a new, independent name, so… she chose Neytiri Elle Phantom" I said, waiting for the horrified looks
"How the heck did you forget that? I thought you would have been exited for weeks" I looked anywhere but at them
"I kind of was, ya know, when you thought I had a nervous twitch about finals, I was fine, just getting exited, Ember leaned over, messing up my hair as she ruffled my hair
"Dipstick"
"NOW! EVERYONE PUT ON YOUR SEATBELT AND KEEP IT TIGHT, WE ARE ABOUT TO ENTER THE GHOST ZONE" Mr Fenton shouted, everyone put theirs on, the engine starting up, Ember swapped sides, resting her head against me, I didn't make that painful vibrating that the walls and windows did, a wave washed over us as we entered the zone, a sudden chill to most and a welcoming feeling to Ember and myself I looked at the others as, instead of rushing though blindly, they finally took the time to admire the zone
I looked down, feeling guilty for not telling them the truth, so not to look odd, I pretended to be in awe at the Zone though it was just the usual green abyss
The blaring ghost alarms sounded every time a level one passes, you know, those unbodied green guys, I groaned at the stupidity, aiming for said ghost when he didn't do anything to them… odd, how no one had-
"LEVEL 7 GHOST APPROACHING AT HIGH VELOCITY" the alarms blared, I looked out the windows and saw no one, my body tense
"TARGET HAS LOCKED ON TO US, TARGED IS ARMED, INCOMING PROJECTILE" I looked around as the class screamed, seeing that most of them had taken off their seatbelts to look around, I shot up to shout over the screams
"SIT DOWN AND PUT YOUR SEATBELTS ON" no one looked around, they just did as they were told, and just in time too, we were hit, I lost my footing and fell, that was when it all went black
"DANNY!"
OOOOHHHHHHH how interesting was that huh?
The twist is, ya don't know what the pairing is, Danny/Sam or Danny/Ember
Whats up with that... huh?
Now, you know the jist by now, comment cause if you have any ideas i will take them in to consideration
