GhostWriterGirl: Heya everyone! And here is the next chapter, which will be filled with heaps of action in it!

Nell: You love action, don't ya, Ghosty?

GhostWriterGirl: Yep, I do. But not too much; there are limitations on how much action I love.

Owen: Aren't there always?

GhostWriterGirl: Yep, there are. And now, can you two do the disclaimer please?

Nell: Okay. GhostWriterGirl doesn't own the show Danny Phantom, nor anything related to it. It all belongs to Butch Hartman.

Owen: All she owns is this story and her OCs, which are us.

GhostWriterGirl: Thanks guys. Enjoy this chapter!

Please read and review!

Chapter 34: Of Masters And Master-Plans

(Kidnapped!)

Third Person P.O.V

At the Nasty Burger, Sam was drumming her fingers on the table top, getting impatient.

"Where are they?" she asked, mouth in a tight line. "Danny said that he, Nell and Owen would be here five minutes ago."

"Sam, they probably got derailed with either avoiding one of their parents' inventions or are currently fighting a ghost," Ava pointed out reasonably. "They've been late before; even before they started fighting ghosts, Danny and Nell were occasionally late."

"Yeah, but..." Sam sighed and looked at the door worriedly, like she had been doing the past five minutes.

"Sam, stop worrying. Danny, Nell and Owen will be here. They always are," Tucker assured the Goth.

"Besides," he continued, "it's not like a ghost will attack while they're not here, right?"

As soon as those words left Tucker's mouth, screams could be heard as the four teens watched as people ran out of the restaurant screaming, but ran back in almost immediately when three ghost vultures wearing fezzes began dive-bombing them as soon as they were outside.

Sam, Ava and Dustin glared at Tucker, who smiled sheepishly.

"You just had to jinx it, Bad Luck Tuck," Dustin said in an annoyed tone.

"How was I supposed to know those vultures were gong to attack?" Tucker defended himself.

Sam, looking intently at the vultures, said, "Wait... those vultures. They're Vlad and Daria's vulture minions!"

At hearing that, Tucker, Ava and Dustin's eyes widened.

"Danny and Nell's archenemies are here?" Ava asked to no one in particular, looking nervously at the vultures.

Dustin looked out the windows and said, "I don't see them anywhere. Maybe these are different vultures?"

"Well, even if they are Vlad and Daria's vulture minions, we can't let them possibly hurt these people," Sam decided. "Besides, if they are, I've got a bone to pick with them considering that they grabbed us during when Danny and Nell had a million-dollar bounty on their heads."

"Same here, Sam," Ava agreed. She then grabbed her bag and took out her thermos. "Let's get to work."

They nodded in agreement.

Each grabbing their own Fenton Thermoses, Sam, Tucker, Dustin and Ava ran out of the Nasty Burger, Sam, Tucker and Ava also having a Fenton weapon on them(Sam had a Jack-O'-Nine-Tails, Tucker a small blaster, and Ava having an ecto-gun). Dustin, after making sure no one was watching, charged his hands faintly with red energy as his eyes glowed blue-gold, a determined look on all of their faces.

Sam, using the Jack-O'-Nine-Tails, threw the nine tentacle-like cords at a vulture, trapping it. With a yell, Sam yanked the vulture towards her, and Tucker sucked the vulture into his thermos.

"Nice job, Sam!" Ava complimented.

Sam smiled, before she gasped.

"Ava, LOOK OUT!" Sam warned.

Ava gasped, and turned around to see the remaining vultures flying straight at her.

The glasses-wearing girl looked at her ecto-gun and muttered, "Come on, work, please."

She raised the gun, and as she was trying to find the trigger, the vultures came closer to her. With claws outstretched, they prepared to grab her-until one of them was blasted away by a shot from Ava's gun.

The force sent the surprised girl tumbling to the ground, but she grinned.

"YES!" she cheered.

The vulture she blasted recovered, and it gave her a hateful look. Screeching, it flew straight at her, but Ava forward-rolled out of the way, coming up behind the confused vulture.

"Back to the bird cage for you, Mr. Scavenger!" Ava quipped, sucking the vulture into her Fenton Thermos.

Suddenly, she heard a cry, and Ava gasped as the last vulture flew at her, too fast for her to fire again. She watched, helplessly, as it flew faster and faster towards her... until it was blasted away by a red ghost ray.

Ava looked at where the vulture was a few feet away from her, before smiling at her brother, his hand smoking with red energy from firing the ghost ray.

"Don't worry, Ava. I've got your back," Dustin told her.

Ava smiled in thanks, but it dropped when the vulture flew straight at Dustin, angry.

Dustin, who didn't want to use his ghost powers again in case it exposed him, watched helplessly as the vulture flew closer and closer... until it was caught in the beam of a Fenton Thermos.

With a final screech, the fez-wearing bird was sucked inside Ava's Fenton Thermos, which she capped shortly after.

"And I've got your back too, bro," Ava replied.

Dustin smiled in thanks.

Sam, looking around and seeing no more vultures, said, "Well, we've captured them all. Let's go inside and-"

However, before Sam could finish, a familiar voice interrupted, "Impressive. But can it be enough to beat us?"

Sam, Tucker, Ava and Dustin turned around...and saw Vlad and Daria in their ghost forms floating there, smirking evilly.

"You bet it will be, Plasmius and Electra!" Dustin exclaimed, before he fired a ghost ray at Daria, but she blocked it with a ghost shield.

"Seems like Noel's boyfriend has a few secrets of his own," Daria mused, before she fired her own ghost ray, which hit Dustin square in the chest and sent him flying into a wall. Groaning, Dustin slid down the wall onto the ground, the pain too much as it caused him to drop his human disguise, resuming his true ghostly form.

"Well, that hurts," Dustin wheezed, a hand to his chest. "Ow..."

Ava gasped, before glaring angrily at Vlad and Daria.

"YOU'RE GOING PAY FOR THAT, ELECTRA!" Ava yelled, readying her ecto-gun and aiming it at Daria. However, before she could fire it, Vlad made a duplicate and the duplicate made the gun turn intangible, phasing it out of her hand.

"Hey!" Ava exclaimed.

However, before she could grab for the thermos, Daria teleported behind her and, using her ecto-energy construction powers, she created a glowing black ecto-rope and tied it around Ava.

"LET GO OF ME!" Ava shouted, kicking fruitlessly as Daria forcibly pulled her up as she floated back to rejoin her father.

Dustin, standing up despite the pain, gasped at seeing Daria holding his tied-up sister and glared.

"LET GO OF MY SISTER!" Dustin roared, flying angrily towards Vlad, Daria and a captive Ava, but Vlad grabbed Dustin's arm and used a ghost stinger to electrocute Dustin, causing the redheaded ghost boy to scream in agony before Vlad threw Dustin down onto the ground, hard.

"DUSTIN!" Ava screamed. She glared at Vlad.

"You'll pay for that!" she yelled, still struggling.

Sam and Tucker, getting over their shock, glared at Vlad and Daria as Sam pointed the Jack-O'-Nine-Tails at Vlad and Daria while Tucker helped Dustin up, the ghostly teen glaring at Vlad and Daria.

"Let go of Ava!" Sam demanded.

"Hmmm, let me think about that," Daria said, before she grinned evilly. "NO!"

Daria turned to Vlad and said, "Right, Dad?"

"Indeed, Little Hawk. Indeed," Vlad replied back, before he and Daria turned to Sam, Tucker and Dustin.

"Farewell, Samantha, Tucker and Dust," Vlad farewelled.

"If that's your real name," Daria added, grinning evilly, that last part directed to Dustin.

Laughing wickedly, Daria and Vlad teleported away, Ava in tow as she screamed and struggled. All that was left was her Fenton Thermos and ecto-gun, lying on the ground beneath where Vlad and Daria once floated.

Sam, Tucker and Dustin shared shocked and angry looks, Dustin's hands trembling in anger.

"I'm going to kill them," Dustin muttered darkly, eyes burning gold in anger. "No one takes my sister and doesn't get away with it."

"Get away with what?" a familiar voice asked.

The three teens turned and saw Danny, Nell and Owen standing there, looking confused.

Owen looked at them and asked, "Where's Ava?"

Sam, Tucker and Dustin looked at each other, not knowing what to say, before Dustin hissed in pain, thanks to his injuries.

Nell, noticing the wince, asked, "Dusty, are you okay? Why are you in ghost mode? And where the heck is Ava?"

Silence.

Now Danny, Nell and Owen were getting both scared, worried and panicked.

"Guys, seriously, where's Ava?" Danny, Nell and Owen asked in unison.

Sam, Tucker and Dustin looked at each other once, before Sam took a deep breath and said:

"Ava's been kidnapped."

Nell and Owen: NOOOOOOO!

GhostWriterGirl: You guys okay?

Owen: No! Vlad and Daria kidnapped Ava! They kidnapped AVA! We need to go rescue her and... and...*storms out of room to go after Ava*

Nell: In other words, we're not okay at all.*eyes glow in hatred as she death-glares*I can't believe that Vlad and Daria will kidnap one of my and Danny's closest friends, especially one who is like a sister to me! When I encounter them, I'm gonna make sure that they'll regret it!

GhostWriterGirl: If you feel that strongly, why aren't you marching out of here to search for Ava like Owen did?

Nell: Because Owen has a crush on Ava.

GhostWriterGirl: True. Anyway...*turns back to the readers*So, Ava's been kidnapped! Does it have anything in relation to Vlad and Daria's plan? Possibly... that's all I'm gonna say. And, my dear Nell, will you do the disclaimer please?

Nell: Sure. In no way does GhostWriterGirl own Danny Phantom. It belongs to Butch Hartman. All she owns is this story and her OCs.

GhostWriterGirl: Thanks Nell.

Nell: Don't mention it. And now, if you excuse me, I better go after Owen before he gets himself captured or killed or both.*becomes banshee and phased out of the room, flying in the direction of Vlad and Daria's mansion*

GhostWriterGirl: Knew that she would leave. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this chapter!
