Chapter XXXVI: "The Mind is Its Own Place"

Agapito Sanchez

"Okay thank you, bye," Amilcar said as he hung up the phone and smiled, "I have good news Agapito," he said as he walked over to me.

"What is that?" I asked him as wrote what I wanted serve at the wake after the Mass.

"I just got off the phone with Archbishop Filoni, Secretariat of the State to Benedict XVI himself. He told the pope about how you wanted a traditional Mass and has given me an indult to have some of the prayers from the old Requiem mass to be said," He told me as I smiled, Amilcar was always a good friend and I could always count on him to come through.

"Thank you, I don't know what I would do without you," I told him as I left to make some calls of my own.

Clockwork

"Are you okay, Clockwork?" Miles asked me as I gazed the battle between Danielle and Freddy from my mirror. This was her greatest battle and I could tell it was taking a toll on her both physically and emotionally.

"I am fine, Miles," I told him as I waved my staff across the glass and changed the scene.

It now showed the past, 1935 to be exact, and a man escape from a Thugee temple along a with a blonde haired woman and a 11 year old boy. This man will be essential in future events and in a test that Danny will undertake.

It will be one that if he fails the entire timeline itself could be thrown into chaos. I have seen what would happen when others have been faced with this. They think they have stopped evil when it has only made it worse.

"Everything is set up as you asked," Miles told me as I turned to him, "what's next," he inquired as I sighed.

"Waiting," I said as I left the room to attend to other matters.

Lucy

"I think we're already to go," Speed said as we gathered outside the palace to wait for Wulf to come and take us home.



"You know this place is kind of neat, in a creepy ghostly kind of way," Connor said as Wulf came outside with a note his hand.

"Mi oni diris al alporti ĉi tiu vi Speed Racer, plaĉi (al) fari vian onklon ricevas ĉi tiu noto ĝi koncernoj Danny," the ghost said handing Speed a piece of paper before clawing at the air creating a large hole. "Ĉi tiel," he said pointing the hole indicating we should walk to through it.

"Let's go," Connor exclaimed as we walked through and arrived at Danny's home upon leaving. It was great to be back on Earth, but Speed seemed uneasy about something.

"Is everything okay?" I asked him as he gazed at the note in his hand. I noticed that it was addressed to Headmaster Spritle, what connection could he have to ghosts?

"Yeah, I just need some time to think," Speed said as he left for the computer room.

Jazz

I stared at my laptop with a blank stare; it seemed like hours had passed and still there was no response from Danny.

"Come on Daniel Alexander, I know you out there, please respond!" I said massaging my temples as I was getting a headache from staring at the monitor for so long without moving.

I typed something on the keyboard and adjusted the parameters of the search but the only thing I got was 'Fenton (Phantom), Daniel not found.'

"What do you mean by that, where else could he…," I began to yell as an awful truth set in my mind, "no that can't be true, I'll prove it," I said as left my room heart beating rapidly as I ran down to the basement.

When I arrived there I found that the shield around the portal was gone. This was my chance to help my brother and sister.

"Now, to activate it," I said as threw the lever that opened the doors; put on the Fenton Peeler armor and walked through the portal to the Ghost Zone. Hang on Danny and Danni, I'm on my way.

Freddy

"This it girl, you lose," I said as the weight of her dead legs send her plummeting the ground and her brother laying dangerously close to the lava.

She looked at me fiercely and blasted me to the ground, 'I'll never quit, never,' she told me through some telepathic means as she crawled on the ground in a desperate attempt to reach her brother.

"You'll wish you would have stayed in that coffin, girl," I told her as I grabbed by the neck and held her in the air. "You're precious Danny is doomed and you will remain here forever," I told her laughing.



Her response was to spit in my face and kick me in the gut causing me to throw to the ground. She pushed herself up on her knees with her hands and tripped me.

"You'll pay for that," I sneered as grabbed her neck, raising my hand, and placing my claws directly over her heart. "Any last words?" I asked her as she trembled in my grasp.
