Chapter XXI: Rotten Luck

Lilly Truscott

"I can't believe I didn't figure out before," I said as me and Oliver tried to get Thor to move but he decided to park himself in the middle of the hall. "Come on Thor, we're late enough as it is," I told the dog who just looked at me with that stupid grin on his face.

"Think about it Lilly, There is all this hype about this girl coming here and while we're distracted with her Fonten sneaks in under the radar," Oken explains as he looks down the hall, "Lilly, it's Racherman," he said standing in front of Thor to hide him. "Hello, Mein Herr," he said as our German teacher eyed him up.

"What are you two doing out here, Klasse hat bereits begonnen," he asks taking out some beef jerky form his pocket- big mistake. The smell of the food reached Thor's nose and pounced on the halpless teacher. "Ach!" he screamed, "Get this Hund off of me!" he screamed as the dog licked his face while I pulled him off.

"There no harm…," I began to say until I saw Racherman was covered in green paint, "I am terribly sorry, sir I'll…," I said until he silenced me.

"Enough get to class, Sie beide, I'll come up with a geeignete punishment later," he said pointing to Corelli's class.

Sam

"Any luck," Tucker asked as I listened to the phone ring on and on. This wasn't like Danny not to answer his phone and it was making me nervous. "Maybe he had confiscated I heard their pretty brutal about carrying cell phones in class out there," he said as I glared at him.

"You're not…," I said as I got a beep, "Hang on Tucker," I said pressing the button and said hello.

"Hello Samantha, lovely day isn't it," the cultured voice of Vlad Masters said as I growled at him, "I trust you got my note dear," he told me as I looked up at Tucker mouthing the word 'Vlad' to him while he hooks up the cell phone to the PDA.

"Where are Danielle and Valerie, I swear you wacko Wisconsinite if you hurt either of them I'll make you wish you were fully dead!" I spat as he laughed coldly. "I mean it," I retorted as Tucker hooked finally got the connection established.

"Now, now, we mustn't do anything hasty," Plasmius said as his ugly face appeared on the screen. "The girls are safe…for now," he said holding the phone up to where he had them tied up. "Say hello girls," he laughed cruelly.

"MMMMMM!" Danielle mumbled as tears ran down her face as he laughed at her.

"See, nothing to worry about and if you wish to keep it that way, you will do exactly as I say," he said as I but my tongue to keep from saying anything. "There is no reason for you to call Daniel as I am going to meet him face to face and I want to it be a pleasant surprise," he said as Tucker rolled his eyes.

"What if we don't you freak," Tucker asked as Vlad's eyes glowed red with anger and I slapped my forehead.

"This," Plasmius said taking the ecto ropes and sending an energy blast though it causing Danielle and Valerie to scream in pain. "I think we are clear," he said as he hung up causing the screen to go blank.

"Way to go Tuck," I moaned, "I'm going to see if I can call Jazz, why don't you make yourself useful and see if you can track where Fruit Loop man is," I said as I unplugged the phone and looked up Danny's older sister's number.

Ashley DeWitt

"That was brilliant," I whispered to Amber as she laughed. The new kid had become the punching bag of every athlete in the school. "I can't wait un…," I began to say until Corelli slammed his hand on the table like he was some dictator. "Sorry, Mr. C," I apologized as he turned around.

"Thank you as I was saying, we have a two new students today I would like you to welcome Danny Fonten…," he said as the boy stud wincing in pain waving hi to the class as he was booed by all the athletes and spit balls were being thrown at him.

"Why me…," he moaned as he sat down while Corelli tried to get the class in order again.

"I see you have met Mr. Fonten already so I would like you to welcome Ms. Paulina Sanchez," he said as a girl with blue eyes in a pink shirt stood up and the class went silent. "Since you two are new here and don't have project I will assign you to teams," Corelli said thinking, "Danny you will help Jake with his and Paulina you will pair up with Oken," he said rambling as I turned to face my friend.

"Do you have everything set up?" I ask her as she nods, this lunch will be one I wouldn't miss for the world.

Valerie

I winced in pain as the ecto ropes irritated my burned skin and my heart was out of whack from the electrical shock of Vlad's ectoblast. However Danielle was the worst of us, tears streamed down her face as her worst fears came to life. What I wouldn't do to get free and teach Plasmius a lesson he'll never forget but right now that is not an option.

"Always a pleasure to speak to those children again," the Fruit Loop said as he walked past us and eyed up. "I think you'll like we're going my dears," he said laughing kneeling down to our level. He looked at Danielle and frowned. "Hush now Danielle, it's…," he began to say until I spat in his face. "WHY YOU MISERABLE LITTLE URCHIN! I RAISED YOU OUT OF POVERTY AND THIS HOW YOU PAY ME?" he snapped hands glowing with power.

"Yeah, and I sold my soul in the process," I told him, "I don't care if you kill me anymore, Plasmius. I've lost all respect for you," I shouted as he laughed knowing full well that I was lying.

"I'm not going to kill you since you are going to be bait to lure Daniel into the open," he said wiping a tear from his eye before walking away.

I looked back and sighed, "It's going to be okay Danielle, Danny will save us," I tell her trying to cheer her up. Please Danny save us.

Rico

"Celebrity endorsement?" father asked as we arrived at the surf shack, "and him of all people," he said sighed and explained to him that it wasn't exactly him but still with the leader of the Danny Phantom Phan Club in town it would bring business. "You're a genius Rico, I'm giving you an extra 500 bucks in you allowance," he said as I smiled.

"Thank you, father," I said as I placed the disk in the DVD player and showed dad the commercial. I could tell that he was pleased and that it would make him richer. "When do you think we can air it?" I asked him as he thought for a second and said it could be on within the hour. "Who knows, with this commercial and the Phan club being town it might bring out the real thing," I said excited as father got out his cell phone and called the networks.

"When I'm done here, I'll call your school to give you the day off," father said as I walked away to my room thinking that if doesn't make him proclaim him his heir over Mateo nothing will.

Danny

"So you're Danny Fonten, you've made quite a name for yourself in a short time," Jake said as I sat down beside him and eyed him up. He was tall with dirty blonde hair and blue eyes that shone with excessive pride. "All right Fonten, I need a guitarist and you're in," he said handing me a guitar case. "I trust you know the tune to the Rock n' Roll solo in Teen Gladiator and the Sword of Fire?" he asked as I shook my head. "You have to be kidding Fonten? That movie out grossed Star Trek: First Contact in 24 hours." He said as I shrugged my shoulders. "Have you heard of Zombie High? Teen Bigfoot" Roger Buck: Intergalactic Bounty Hunter?" he asked as I shook my head, "Do you watch any movies?" he said in one last attempt to understand and I nodded. "What films have you seen?" he demanded to know as I thought for a second.

"German Expressionism, classic horror, the Dead Teacher and Cyber Zombie series, and the occasional B-Movie," I tell him as rolls eyes and mutters something to him something to himself.

"Do you know the Torgo theme from Manos: The Hands of Fate?" he finally says as I nod, "good the music is like that only there is more bass to it and the tempo is faster," he says handing me sheet music, "we're the last to go on so you have time to learn the song," he told me as the first student presented his assignment.

"Mr. Oken, you are going to re-enact the battle between Danny Phantom and the Ghost King," Corelli said looking at a paper as Oliver shook his head. "That's what you told three weeks ago, if you're not going to do the assignment you will get an F," he warned the kid.

"Mr. C, I did do the assignment just not the re-enactment," Oliver said as Corelli asked him what he was going to do instead. "Me and Rico worked all night on this and you can also look for it on TV coming soon," he said walking over to the class DVD player and put the disk in. "I give you our master piece," he said as a he appeared on the TV dressed as me while everyone laughed.

"Why do these things always happen to me?" I asked myself as I slouched in my seat hiding my face with the sheet music hoping that this will soon be forgotten.
