GIW Headquarters

Unknown

The first thing Danny registered when he woke up was that he was still in his ghostly form and that he had a splitting headache. The second thing was the hard, ground – no, floor – that he was lying on. He reached up with his hand to feel the back of his head, but when his left hand followed his right he snapped his eyes open. He found his hands in front of him with white type handcuffs that started from his wrist and ended four inches further up his arm, a white metal bar connected the two. Where was he?

Danny looked up from the odd handcuffs and to the room he was laying in to find four bright white walls greeting him. His eyebrows furrowed as he looked closer at the walls trying to find the door, but determined that there couldn't be one as there was no indication that there would be an entrance to his room. He glanced up at the ceiling but was immediately blinded by the bright white light. Danny reached around his head to grab the back of his head as it flared in pain. It was an awkward position, but he didn't care.

The last thing he remembered was his fight with Seraphina. They had fought for thirty minutes before he was able to subdue her. He remembered forcing her to change everyone back to normal and then he sucked her into the thermos when her green wave died down. After that… nothing.

He looked around the room again, noticing that it was much too small for him to stand up in, then down at himself. He was still in his suit, but that didn't make him feel any better. Though Danny was happy that he was now at the stage where he unconsciously could determine when he should stay in his ghost form when he had enough energy, he knew something bad had happened. Staying in his ghost form unconsciously was like when you get hurt and your body knows not to lay a certain way as to not hurt yourself more while you sleep.

The only place he could think of that he was being held in like so, was at the GIW Headquarters. Danny sighed in aggravation. How could he have gotten himself caught? He was always so careful. And now no one knew where he was. Tucker and Sam wouldn't be coming to rescue him for a while. He was positive that they'd be able to determine where he was, but for the time being he'd have to find a way out himself.

Danny powered up his intangibility, but as soon as he tried to access his power he received a shock from his handcuffs. A green light lit up on them before disappearing, leaving them solid white again. He tried all his powers, but each time he received a shock bigger than the next and a green light appearing on the handcuffs. They were able to block his powers. Did that mean he couldn't transform back to his human self? He wanted to try it, but figured there were security cameras in his room and he would not let them have that kind of information.

He pulled himself over to one of the walls and leaned against it. He'd just have to wait till someone came to get him to figure out what he was going to do about escaping. He didn't have to wait long however, as five or so minutes later a hiss sounded from the wall farthest from him and an opening appeared. Three GIW Agents waited on the other side, looking as intimidating as a Rottweiler.

"Let's go, Phantom." The one in front said in a gruff voice.

"Yeah, I'm going to have to say 'no', to this field trip boys. But thanks for the offer." He was not going to go quietly.

The Agent pulled out what looked like a remote control. He typed something in and a large shock wave surged up through Danny's arms and down into his body. He clenched his teeth together so hard, he swore he heard one of them crack.

"What was that?" The Agent asked.

Once he had his breathing back in control he stood as best he could, hunched over and made his way out the door. Why was it that everyone resorted to shock therapy with him? Didn't they all know how he died? Well, he guessed that the GIW had no idea. It's not like he shouted it out whenever he met someone new. But still!

The hallway was just as bright white as his room was. Danny figured that was probably why they wore black sunglasses all the time, so they wouldn't go crazy from all the white surrounding them. He looked to his left and found that the hallway ended in a couple feet. To his right it was like he was in the real life version of The Shining. The three agents moved around him before pushing him down the hallway. It smelled too clean, Danny decided. Much too clean. Like everything was cleaned with bleach. His stomach flipped.

When they reached the end of the hallway they turned left and Danny thought he was never so happy to see another color besides white and black. At the end of this new hallway were silver elevator doors and silver buttons stationed on the wall next to it. After waiting a few seconds after pushing the elevator down button, the door opened to reveal the inside of the elevator where Danny was pushed inside, the Agents standing guard in front of him. He looked over at the control panel as quick as he could and saw that there were 9 levels to this place: 3, 2, 1, SB0, SB1, SB2, SB3, SB4, and SB5.

The guard chose SB3 and the elevator moved down. Danny counted the dings to figure out where he was being held and counted two before the elevator stopped. So his holding cell was on SB1. Before the doors could open he decided to try his chance at escaping.

Danny swung his arms into the head of the Agent with the gruff voice that stood in front of him. At the same time he kicked out with his left leg to hit the Agent on his left in the stomach. Both went down. He used his momentum to attack the third and last Agent, however a shock wave made his body spasm and he collapsed to the floor. He groaned, his body hurting in places he almost forgot he had.

The Agent that shocked him didn't care. The elevator doors opened, she grabbed him by the rod on his handcuffs and dragged his body down the hallway. "Two of our Agents are down. Please take them to the infirmary." She told a passing Agent and continued to haul him down the ever present white hallway he couldn't escape from. Through his half-hooded eyes he saw many people walking around with white coats on instead of the usual suit. Oh. Shit.

They were in the labs.

He was not dragged far down the hall. The Agent stopped at a door and pulled out a key card and slid it into a numbered pad. She entered a code, before a door hissed open and drug him inside. He groaned when he saw these walls were blinding white as well. Seriously, didn't they know of any other color choices? The table was silver, as were the two chairs that were stationed on either side.

She forced him in one of the chairs. His arms strapped to the table, with the handcuffs still attached. His legs were cuffed to his chair and then his chest was strapped back into the chair as well.

"Love the comfort you provide. Do you do this for everyone, or just me?" But she didn't condone his snarky comment with a response. She finished up and then she was gone and the door was shut.

The interrogation room he sat in looked similar to the ones he'd been in already and the ones he'd seen on TV. There was a one-way window opposite him, the lights were too brightly lit, and there were cameras in each corner of the room. Well, he definitely wasn't going to be able to escape so easily from this room. Plus, he kind of wanted to know what they wanted from him. Of course he knew that they wanted to study him, but he was never given information besides the fact they wanted to capture him and perform painful experiments on him.

Danny was pretty sure he waited there twenty minutes before the doors opened again. A large Hispanic man entered. He reminded Danny of Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, except Hispanic. He could see a jagged white scar on the Agents neck and a pink puffed up scar run from his forehead to his right ear, where ½ of that ear was gone.

"I'm Agent Mendoza." Is all the man said before taking his seat in the other chair and placed his folded hands on the table.

Danny waited for him to say something else, but nothing came from the man's mouth. He mentally smirked. They were playing the waiting game. See if he would ask the right questions or reveal things that they wanted without having the interviewer do any talking. He did this with some of the trickier ghosts, and he's seen Walker do it time and time again to many a ghost. Danny let a smirk cover his face knowing this would be the only way to get under Agent Mendoza's skin.

Danny counted out another fifteen minutes before he yawned. "You know if we're not going to talk, what was the point in bringing me here?" He finally said. He had contemplated what he wanted to say, spending for the first time in a long time, specific thought into what he was going to say so he wouldn't give anything away.

"Tired?"

"Bored." He deadpanned. He almost chuckled as he remembered Tucker sounding like that just this afternoon. Wait… was it Thursday night? What if it was longer? He had no way to figure out what time it was. And Danny had no idea when he woke up.

"Something troubling you?"

He frowned before smiling quickly. He had to make sure not to slip like that. "Just wondering the time. I've got a hot date."

"With who, might I inquire?" The Agent moved forward slightly.

"None of your business."

He moved back to his previous position. "I see. Since it is common knowledge that ghosts do not date, I am going to take your lie as tactic you use for covering up what troubles you."

Danny couldn't believe this. The guy sounded as if he was the nicest person in the world, all the while calling him on his bullshit. Not that it was good, but still. He had to be trying to get Danny on his good side, so he would open up. That's what it had to be. No way would a GIW Agent ever be this nice to a ghost. Especially him.

"How are you doing Phantom?"

The question caught him off guard. "Really? That's what you're starting with?"

"It's a simple question."

Danny stayed silent. No more talking for him. Now that he got Agent Mendoza to talk, he wasn't going to answer anything anymore. Okay, that's a lie, he'd probably throw in a few snappy comments but that's it.

Agent Mendoza asked him a few more 'pleasantry' questions and told him a few pieces of information about himself; Danny learned that he was the head director of this facility. But after that, that was when the 'nice' questions stopped. He started asking about the Ghost Zone: the energy that lives there, the ghosts that stay there, the language. But Danny kept his mouth shut on all accounts.

When this didn't work Agent Mendoza started asking him questions about himself. Why does he fight other ghosts? Why has he claimed the school, the park and other areas? What significance did they have to him? How did he die? Danny took great offence to that. In the Zone that was a serious social don't. What does he do to sustain himself? How much human emotion does he take on a normal day to survive? Does he take more than a normal ghost and is that why he acts so human all of the time?

Danny stayed quiet throughout the interrogation. He wanted to give them a few snappy comebacks and to tell them off for asking how he died, but he kept his mouth shut. It was hard for him, but he decided that even if he spoke those comebacks then he'd be giving in to what they wanted. Even if it wasn't directly what they wanted.

"Alright then." Agent Mendoza finally sighed out. "If you are unwilling to cooperate with us then something will be done." He rose from his seat and exited the door leaving Danny alone once again in the room.

He scoffed, how could they have believed that he was going to give up that information so easily? He knew that they were going to torture it out of him, but he knew he'd rather die fully than tell them what they wanted. Of course though, if he had to sit in this room of all white for another minute he'd have gone too insane to probably remember what he should or shouldn't say.

Sadly, it took another twenty minutes until the door slid back open and three new operatives came to fetch him. They took him down another series of hallways where he was then taken into a room that housed a steel examination table, an overhead light and surgical instruments laid out to the left on a rolling cart.

Shit. He felt a fight or flight instinct kick in and he tried to run. Tried to fight his way out, but was shocked almost to unconsciousness again.

They picked him up and carelessly put him on the table. While one of the Agents held down his shoulders, the others made sure that his ankles were strapped down and his waist was as well. They added another metal strap that came from the table around his neck before they took off the handcuffs. He was too tired to go intangible at the moment and wished he had as they strapped his wrists to the table as well before pressing a button somewhere he couldn't see on the table, a flash of green illuminated from his wrists and he knew he wouldn't be able to use his power again.

He didn't have to wait long after the three Agents disappear for Agent Mendoza and an Agent donning a lab coat to show up in his little hell. The Agent in the lab coat did not introduce himself, though he was pushing a cart with a cloth over it. Danny knew that whatever was under there was not going to end well for him.

"Are you comfortable Phantom?" Agent Mendoza questioned him. Danny saw him press a button on what he thought was a recording device before putting it down on a rolling table beside him.

"Oh yeah, just peachy." He was able to quip back. His mouth tasted like metal and ectoplasm. He was pretty sure that the ectoplasm taste was because his mouth was bleeding.

"Then we can begin part two of our interrogation."

"The torturing part?" He swallowed his rising fear.

"If I didn't know better I would have thought, that to be your own thought." Agent Mendoza grabbed something from the table of instruments next to him. "What makes you so different?" A blade quickly flashed in the light and he felt the cool blade touch the skin at his throat.

He wanted to panic. Start hyperventilating. That's what any sane person would do if they were about to die. Because he had no other reason to believe that Agent Mendoza would not slice his throat open. Answers or not. A full ghost would only think they were dead. But him? Danny was fairly certain he would die this time and would not be coming back.

When Danny refused to answer his question, Agent Mendoza moved the blade up and a little to the left before cutting a straight line down into his collarbone. He could tell it wasn't deep, but his skin burned where it touched before the feeling was gone. He wondered if this was where they always started their interrogations; with the easier things?

"That tickled." Danny mouthed off. He knew it was going to get worse. What did it matter if he let his sarcasm run wild?

"Oh, don't worry." The director gave a laugh that sent chills down his spine, "It was supposed to."

GIW Headquarters: Lab

Hey guys so don't forget to review! i love to hear what you have to say.

Below i have the reasoning's behind the lyrics i chose and i'd love to hear what you have to say about it! Sorry if you don't want to, but it gets kind of long.

Chapter lyrics:

Ch. 1 - Complicated: None

Ch. 2 – Straight for the Castle: Halsey - Castle

I'm headed straight for the castle /

They've got the kingdom locked up

Upon listening to Halsey's Castle I knew that this would be best for the second chapter. In the second chapter if you don't remember we learn through Agent Z who had learned along with the rest of the GIW from Plasmius (though that information is not given how Plasmius has told them), that Danny is to be the new Ghost King. Now through the entire song 'Castle' I did not take Halsey's meaning of this song into my story. I chose the words specifically because I liked the way they presented the idea of Danny being Ghost King at this point in time. The first phrase 'I'm headed straight for the castle' demonstrates to me Danny being told that he is to be the new Ghost King. He's on his way to the castle in a figurative sense. The second phrase 'They've got the kingdom locked up' is important to Danny because at the moment he's trying to figure out if he truly is the Ghost King. He's keeping the kingdom – the idea that he's the ghost king- locked up in his mind because he doesn't want to believe that he is the ghost king.

Ch. 3 Swimming with the sharks: Panic! At the Disco – Vegas Lights

Where villains spend the weekend

The deep end

We're swimming with the sharks until we drown

Now chapter 3 is when Team Phantom goes out to figure out what the GIW are up to for the first time and head to the far frozen to find out about their opinion on Danny being Ghost King. The title 'Swimming with the Shark' should be clear. But the Sharks are the GIW and the verb swimming is to demonstrate that they are going into uncharted territory and it's dangerous.

'Where villains spend the weekend' phrase shows the villains as the GIW, and 'where they spend the weekend' is the GIW headquarters that Danny and Sam find. 'The deep end' is again the GIW headquarters, but it is also to show how Danny and Sam are inside the headquarters where it's not territory they know even though they know how to survive it. 'We're swimming with the sharks until we drown' this phrase represents the fact that no matter what Team Phantom will have to deal with the sharks – GIW – until something happens on either side. Also the last line can be used to represent that Danny as Ghost King will have to deal with the ghosts who do not want him to be Ghost King and something may happen to him if he does take up the job of Ghost King, drowning him in the expectations.

Ch. 4 – Miserable & Magical: Taylor Swift - Fifteen

Well count to ten, take it in

This is life before you know who you're gonna be

The summary of Chapter 4 was the ending to their trip to the Far Frozen and then Chaser coming on to scene as well as them seeing another ad for Vlad's campaign. The title demonstrates the word 'miserable' for Danny being miserable about not having yet a definite of whether or not he's to be the Ghost King and about Vlad doing his campaigning and knowing that no matter what he'll be mayor again. The word 'magical' is to show the magical component that Chaser has and uses in this chapter and the next.

The lyrics I chose were mainly to focus on Danny and the struggle for the Ghost King position. The first line is supposed to show him trying to take in the idea that all these ghosts believe him to be the ghost king and that he probably is the ghost king. Then the second line is demonstrating the fight with Chaser and his thoughts on Vlad and that this will be how he determines who he is as the Ghost King. To find himself.

Ch. 5 – Remote Controlled: Imagine Dragons - Polaroid

I'm a midnight talker

Oh I'm an alley walker

I'm a day late two face

I'm a burn out quick pace

The summary of Chapter 5 is when the students are in the universe of Chaser's and then when they get out and he is captured by Danny. The title is the showing of Chaser's remote he uses to control people and turn them into people from movies and TV Shows. The lyrics came together as a whole to represent Chaser. The first line 'I'm a midnight talker' shows him to be someone who stays up late and gets into long conversations over his games or movies and TV Shows. The second line 'Oh I'm an alley walker' shows that he's reckless but also alone. The third line 'I'm a day late two face' he's hypocritical of things showing he goes with whoever he decides at the time is better. The last line 'I'm a burn out quick pace' for me represented that he burns out quickly which is why he was seen as someone who lived in his parent basement because he couldn't hold a job.

Ch. 6 - Breathe:

Panic! At the Disco – The End of All Things

Many things will change

But the way I feel

Will remain the same

Chapter 6 summary: they send Chaser off, background on Ida Manson, and the day before Jazz leaves for college. I chose the title 'Breathe' because we're taking a breath before everything really begins in the story. This is the last calm chapter before things start heating up. I also chose this name because things are easier at the moment for the Team.

The lyrics are showing the relationship between Danny and Jazz – even though that it brought forward in the next chapter I really wanted to show that even here they are still close. 'Many things will change' shows how Jazz is going off to college and things at home and in their lives are going to change because of this. "But the way I feel' both Jazz and Danny 'Will remain the same' are going to love each other no matter what happens.

Ch. 7 – A Phone Call Away: Whitney Houston & CeCe Winans – Count on Me

Count on me through thick and thin

A friendship that will never end

When you are weak I will be strong

Helping you to carry on

Call on me, I will be there

Don't be afraid

Please believe me when I say

Count on me

The summary: Jazz and Danny have a heart to heart. Then they take Jazz off to college. The chapter title "A Phone Call Away" represents the statement Jazz makes saying that she is only a phone call away and that no matter what she will always be there for Danny and all he has to do is call. The lyrics represent how close they have become since she found out about him and that he can always count on her no matter how far away they are from each other.

Ch. 8 - Phoenix: Panic! At the Disco – Emperor's New Clothes

Welcome to the end of eras

Ice has melted back to life

Done my time and served my sentence

Dress me up and watch me die

If it feels good, tastes good it must be mine

Dynasty decapitated

You just might see a ghost tonight

Chapter 8 summary: The fight with Aragon at Dora's castle. The chapter title Phoenix comes from the definition 'a person or thing regarded as uniquely remarkable in some respect'. This person is wanted to represent is Dora. She is seen as a phoenix, not just with this definition but rising from the abuse of her brother and becoming someone that can lead her kingdom into a better, healthier time.

The lyrics are actually representing both Aragon and the ghost he speaks of that no one knows about. 'Welcome to the end of eras' shows how Aragon wants to end what is this peace going on in his own kingdom and also what may be the focus of the new ghost. 'Ice has melted back to life' shows the Aragon has come back. "Done my time and served my sentence" is for Aragon of course – though he hasn't served his time yet, I figured it was still good for the chapter. 'Dress me up and watch me die' is actually a line that will be a focus for something everyone will learn later but I'm sure you can guess given what I said at the beginning of this paragraph. "it feels good, tastes good it must be mine" this shows Aragon's greed over the kingdom and believes that he should have it back. 'Dynasty decapitated' this line represents how Aragon's dynasty is gone and Dora's has risen. 'You might just see a ghost tonight' the word ghost is supposed to represent the fact that they were never to see Aragon again and he would be something unexpected and unreal.

Ch. 9 The End is the Beginning: Halsey - Gasoline

And all the people say

"You can't wake up, this is not a dream

You're part of a machine, you are not a human being

With your face all made up, living on a screen

Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline"

Chapter 9 Summary: They are getting better, they also go over what the Observants said and they try to talk to Clockwork. The title 'The End is the Beginning' is used to represent Danny's end to the thought that he probably is not the Ghost King and the beginning of a new journey that he was not prepared to take.

The lyrics are representing this. I know that a lot of my lyrics represent Danny and being Ghost King but this story has a large focus on this so that's why. "And all the people say" these are the ghosts in the zone that believe him to be the king. "You can't wake up, this is not a dream" that no matter what Danny is accepting that this will be his fate. "With your face all made up, living on a screen" now it took me a bit to understand why I like this line so much for this part and about keeping it in the lyrics, but I finally figured out that it's as though no matter what Danny is putting up a front with everyone except a few people (ghosts too) and being made Ghost King will be as if he has another front to put on. "Low on selfesteem, so you run on gasoline" Danny is so sure that he would not be a good Ghost King and the gasoline signifies everyone backing him up and pushing him to think that he would be even though he doesn't seem to want to.

Ch. 10 – Emotional Language: Panic! At the Disco - Victorious

I'm like a scarf trick, it's all up the sleeve

I taste like magic, waves that swallow quick and deep

Throw the bait, catch the shark, bleed the water red

Fifty words for murder and I'm every one of them

Summary: The team learns about Ghost Language through the GIW, Danny and Valerie fight, Dash is acting funny and a new ghost Seraphina comes into the picture. The title for this chapter emotional language is two parts. 'emotional' for Seraphina and 'Language' for the ghost language. The lyrics are for Seraphina's character.

"I'm like a scarf trick, it's all up the sleeve" represents her sneakiness and her ability to pull off any emotion while unseen. "I taste like magic, waves that swallow quick and deep" the emotion that is her magic touch and she pulls this off by using waves of emotions that are quick and take root from emotions someone is already feeling. "Throw the bait, catch the shark, bleed the water red" The bait is the emotion someone already feels deep down, catching the shark is the person she wants to inflict more of any emotion onto and make them feel a new emotion if she wants to, bleeding the water red is the aftermath these emotions create and sometimes how crazy it can be. "Fifty words for murder and I'm every one of them" this last line shows how tricky Seraphina can be and then how lethal she is towards you and you towards anyone you come in contact with if you are experiencing her bad emotions.

Ch. 11 Losing Control: Halsey - Drive

All we do is drive

All we do is think about the feelings that we hide

All we do is sit in silence waiting for a sign

Chapter 11 summary: You just read it!

The title "Losing Control" shows how Danny and Sam are losing control over their reasons to not state that they love each other. That they have no control and it makes it easier to admit their feelings to each other. "All we do is think about the feelings that we hide" is supposed to represent that Danny and Sam think about the other a lot and how they love each other. "All we do is sit in silence waiting for a sign" they are each waiting for a sign from the other for their feelings to be admitted which is shown in this chapter when Danny has the run-in with Tyler. But now they are still waiting for a sign from each other.
