The manifestation of the man in the overalls disappeared before they could ask him who or what or why or when. But I can guarantee you that those questions were running through there heads even as they looked at each other.
"Danny," asked Sam, "do you know what he was talking about?"
"No, but I have a clue," said Danny, "My parents have been performing research into the paranormal. Though more conventional scientist considers them laughable, I know better."
"So we can ask them," said Sam.
"They don't know what I can do. They know about my getting fried, but they don't know what I am," Danny considered himself for a moment, "for that matter, I don't know what I am. And I would rather not wind up in a test tube thank you."
"so we just have to be careful how we ask," said Sam, "I think I can make it over to your house this afternoon, my parents will be thrilled to here about me having a friend, I just cant tell them you're a boy just yet."
"Hey," said Danny "do you have your schedule on you?"
"Yeah, why?" asked Sam.
"Just want to compare schedules," he answered.
Sam handed over her schedule, Danny looked it over. They had their first and last periods together; otherwise they spent the rest of their time in different parts of the school.
"I will see you again come last period after lunch is over. You can ride the bus home with me and hopefully we can get some answers then." Danny said. "Grahaag this has been a stressful week. I really want to fly right now."
Sam blinked a couple times at that, "you can fly to?"
"Ah ha ha huh…" Danny articulated, "Did I say that out loud? Hey do you play DOOM?"
"Yes, but your changing the topic," Sam said, "so you can fly, see spirits, and what else?"
Danny was really wishing he could go invisible at that moment. However, just because he forgot that he could for the moment did not mean that his body forgot; as he disappeared from Sam's sight she suddenly cried out.
"Holy shit! Danny, where did you go?" she tried not to shout, but she really couldn't help herself.
"I forgot I could do that…" he said as he came back into view.
"You forgot you could do that, why do I get the feeling theirs still more you can do?" Sam felt the whole situation was pretty incredible. She would probably have a panic attack about all of this later but right now it was too cool.
"I can go through solid objects," he said,"and as far as I know, that's it."
"So you could be the ultimate peeping tom if you wanted to, you know," said Sam with a smile.
"Hey! I'm not like that!" Danny cried indignant.
Sam laughed, "I didn't say you were Danny."
"Still…" Danny muttered glaringly.
"You totally need to take me flying!" Sam said.
"I am not really sure if I can carry anyone," Danny said.
"Well," Sam went, "there's only one way to find out! You are sooo taking me flying later!"
"Alright," Danny relented, "if I can carry you, we'll fly. But only if I can carry you."
There conversation shifted too other things after that, things of a less serious nature. Danny was surprised to find that Sam was a vegetarian. Sam was surprised to find that he wanted to be a astronaut, and was rather dismayed that he had seemed to have given up on it as a pipe dream. They were both surprised and delighted to find that they liked the same games and movies, though there taste in literature and music varied. And all too soon it was time for class again.
