Chapter 36

DANNY'S POV

Cari took the first shot at me, then it was an all-out war. There was only one slight difference between our fighting styles. She was fighting to kill me. I was fighting to save one of my best friends.

I guess there was one other difference, Cari was insanely strong. I guess when you put all of your morals in the very back of your mind and fill the rest of it with rage and the need for power you have nothing left to hold you back. Plus she had the power of two elements which wasn't helping me either.

I managed to hit her a few times but then she decided that she wasn't taking our fight seriously enough so she split herself into three. So I performed the same task. We were fighting on three intense fronts.

TUCKER'S POV

I woke up to a huge crash and then a bang that sounded from outside my house. At first I just figured that it was thunder until I saw flashes of green and red through the slits of my blinds. I quickly ran over and pulled them up to confirm my thoughts. Danny and Red were in midair and it looked like they were locked in a pretty intense fight. Especially since they had each split themselves into 3.

I was just about to call Sam when the middle Danny was hit and was sent downwards towards the concrete. I ran downstairs as fast as I could so that I could check on him.

He landed in my neighbor's driveway. I ran over to him hoping to find out what was going on, but I didn't even get the chance to ask because as soon as I was within hearing range Danny started talking in a quiet and very rushed voice. "I need you and Sam to get to my house and get my mom and sister out of there. Once Cari's in the perimeter turn on the ghost shield." He didn't have time to say anything else. He pushed off the ground and flew back up the greet Cari with a punch to the face.

I didn't stay to watch the rest. I had to trust the Danny had a plan. I dialed Sam's number and told her to get to Danny's house. After I hung up I ran to my garage to grab my electric scooter, turned it up to max speed and then raced over to Danny's.

As you could assume Mrs. Fenton was not too happy to see me on her doorstep at quarter to 12.

"Is Danny with you too?" She demanded "he was supposed to be home hours ago."

"Uh no Mrs. Fenton." I answered craning my neck to try and see over her shoulder. "But is Jazz here I have a very important question to ask her."

We both heard footsteps and looked to see Sam running towards the house. "Sam, Tucker what on earth is going on here?" She demanded angrily.

"Look Mrs. Fenton we are really sorry to show up here at this time but we really need to talk to Jazz. It's urgent." Sam said. She sounded pretty out of breath. I guessed that she had run the whole way.

"Fine if it's urgent I guess I can't say no." Mrs. Fenton let us in reluctantly and we ran upstairs to get Jazz. Sam burst into her room first. Luckily she was up reading a book.

"Sam? Tucker? What are you two doing here this late?" she asked, closing her book.

"We need you and your mom to get out of here." I told her.

"Wait why? What's going on?" She asked as she stood up.

"Danny's fighting Red right now. And- And it's pretty ugly. I think he is going to trap her here. I think he wants you and your Mom away from the house just in case something goes wrong."

"I'll go and try to convince my mom to leave but I wanna stay. I'm sure I could help."

"Jazz this isn't Cari I doubt Danny even wants this evacuation to be taking this long." Sam said quickly.

"Fine, but you two do your best to stay safe. And try to keep my little brother safe too." Jazz said just before she left the room. I knew she had tons of questions and that she really wanted to stay but I guess she also knew how dire the situation was.

We trusted Jazz to get the job done so we ran upstairs getting ready to set off the ghost shield. We watched as the bright colors of red, green, orange, and white flashed through the air. In less than a minute they were within 5 feet of being in range of the ghost shield. Danny created a pillar of ice which pushed her back 6 feet. Sam hit the button and the ghost shield activated.

Red slammed herself against the invisible wall. "There ya go now just to get you into the lab." Danny yelled. He then shifted into his human form pulling out one of his Dads newer inventions a rope that no ghost can break. As soon as he crossed into his front yard he yelled "going ghost" and before you could even blink your eyes he had her tied up.

Sam and I ran down to the front door and helped him drag Cari in, and man was she strong. We almost had her down the stairs when Danny's mom came in. "No Jazz I'm not going back. I don't care if you want a jumpsuit we are not waiting in front of the Silver's house all night."

I spun around just in time to see Red shift back into Cari.

"Sam tucker go to the lab now ill handle this" neither of us hesitated to get down the stairs.
