Chapter 8: The Trap
I looked around the city- there were a lot of people out and about, mostly flying so the streets were empty. "It's kinda creepy how much of a ghost town this turned into, literally." I said as we walked towards Valerie's apartment.
"But you gotta admit, it looks cool to be able to fly." Tucker smiled.
"So what are we going to say to Valerie if she wasn't caught?" Sam asked me.
"Just let me talk to her, okay? She's not very comfortable talking with you two since she doesn't know you guys know her secret." I told them.
But when we reached the apartment, I heard scuffling around the corner. I blinked and frowned. "Tucker, Sam, you two stay here, turn off the hologram."
"If you say so, dude." Tucker said with a little bit of a hesitation before shutting off the hologram.
I slowly made my way around the corner, trying to find the scuffling. "Hello…? Is anybody there?" I called out loud.
The scuffling got louder and suddenly Valerie jumped out in her red suit and aimed a big gun at me. "Don't come any closer!"
I stopped, I had a feeling it was Valerie, which is why I told Tucker to shut off the hologram. "Whoa, calm down Valerie! It's okay, I'm not a ghost, I'm still just Andy!"
"How do I know you're not lying? These ghosts can still appear human!" Valerie hissed at me with an untrusting tone, not that I blame her.
"You want proof? Then shoot me- that gun will only hurt ghosts, right? If it doesn't hurt me, then it proves I'm human." I told her, shrugging.
"... That is true…" Valerie said before hesitating.
"Andy?" I blinked before seeing Dash coming out of hiding. "Is that really you?"
"Dash? You and Valerie escaped the conversion?" I asked them with surprise.
"Yeah, I was with Valerie doing a project with her when these… Phantoms, or a much scarier looking Phantom, came and attacked us! They got Valerie's Dad, but Valerie herself managed to get us out of there just in time!" Dash said, waving his arms frantically. "It's getting crazy!"
"Yes, the whole world's been turned into ghosts, just like your parents- we have to find a way to reverse this before it's too late!" I told them.
"How do we know you're not one of them trying to lead us into a trap?" Valerie asked me suspiciously.
I groaned, rolling my eyes. "Shoot me and find out for sure!"
"Fine, I will!" Valerie pushed the trigger. I shut my eyes to brace myself in case pain does come… but thankfully all that happened was the laser going through me like I wasn't there.
"...Now do you believe me?" I asked her and she nodded.
"Good, I'm glad to see we're not the only ones that escaped the ghostly menace." Valerie said, sighing in relief.
Good, she and Dash doesn't like this anymore than I do, at least there are some people with actual sense still around.
"But what are we going to do? I mean if everyone else in the world are ghosts now, we're done for!" Dash panicked.
"...Actually they're… half ghosts." I answered hesitantly.
"Wait, what?" Valerie frowned from within her mask. "You can't be serious, right Andy?"
"They're half human, half ghosts, they're still humans but they have ghost powers and a ghost form. They're called 'halfas'. I know it's weird and hard to believe but it's true, they still have their humanity, but…" I hesitated. "...They've been forced to become half ghosts."
"This… this isn't… natural! This is supernatural!" Dash yelped.
"This kind of thing is unforgivable! What's turning the human race into these halfas anyway!?" Valerie snapped, obviously displeased with this- good, so I'm not the only one.
I know I promised not to tell them my brother's secret, because it wasn't my secret to tell- however, the secret cannot be kept hidden if it means the end of the world, and I don't want Valerie killing my brother out of hatred and vengeance. True there might still be a chance she'll still hate him after she knows who he is, but at least she'll be a lot more hesitant and better self control. She isn't the type of person who'd want to kill a human, even if they're only half. I took a deep breath, this isn't something I wanted to do, but it must be done. We can't have secrets from each other right now.
"Valerie… Dash… this isn't easy for me to say. There's… a big secret… that my brother's been hiding from everyone. I shouldn't be telling you this because it's his secret, not mine, but I believe the time has come for you to know and I can't wait for my brother to tell you himself anymore." I said to them. Valerie and Dash frowned, probably wondering what my brother's secret could be and how it could possibly relate to this situation.
"What does your brother's secret have to do with everyone turning into these half ghost monsters?" Valerie asked, lowering her ray to look at me in confusion.
"Yeah, no offense Andy, but your brother's secret can wait, can't it?" Dash asked, still frowning.
I shook my head, "No… because my brother's secret is, believe it or not, the root of all this!"
"R-really?" Both of them were in shock and I didn't blame them.
"Yes. You see… Danny is… he's half ghost. There was an accident in the lab about 6 months ago, it turned him into a halfa. His ghost half is… Danny Phantom, or as you may know him; Inviso-Bill." I answered and both of them were in complete and utter shock that they were speechless, as if trying to process exactly what came out of my mouth just now.
"Andy? Are you okay?" I nearly jumped when I heard Tucker and Sam's voice as they ran in to check on me.
"I'm fine." I told them.
"Valerie? Dash?" Sam blinked, looking at them as the two were still trying to process what I said. I'd like to know what's going on in their minds right now. Valerie's probably thinking of all the times she had hunted him down and Dash is thinking about how those times he bullied him.
"Yeah, apparently they both escaped too. Which is good because we could use all the help we can get." I said but then frowned when I saw Tucker and Sam glaring a bit, their eyes flashing red for a split second. I raised an eyebrow but now I'm worried, because once may have just been the trick of the light, twice could've just been my own paranoia, but a third time and on both of them? I'm starting to think maybe they were taken over by the clones, just not converted yet. If that's the case, Danny must be saving them for himself, and if they are taken over, we can't trust them.
"I see, so they were able to escape too." Sam said as she gave a smile. "So I take it we'll all work together?"
"...Wait a minute… you said Danny's the cause of all this? And he's been that ghost boy all this time!?" Valerie all but shouted when she finally came out of her stupor.
"I've been bullying a hero? A GHOST!?" Dash gulped nervously, practically sweating bullets.
"Yes, he is. I know it's a hard pill to swallow, but it's true and if we don't stop him before he gets us, there's no hope in this world." I said quickly. "The Earth will collapse if this keeps up!"
"Andy, you really need to stop worrying over this." Sam frowned at me, crossing her arms in irritation. "Not only did you tell them Danny's secret but you're calling him a monster basically for doing what he thinks is right!"
I glared at her, clenching my fist around my metallic Fenton Rod as I responded. "I suppose Sam would agree with me that this isn't right either, especially after what happened to her grandmother- but she's not here right now, is she, 'bro'?"
"Wha- Andy, are you nuts!?" Tucker blinked in shock, giving me a confused frown. "Sam isn't your brother- she's, well, Sam! I can understand where she's coming from, too- I mean, seriously, calling your own brother a monster for trying to help people? It'd be like if you just took in a breath of air and you were put in jail for it! You really need to calm down, okay?"
Sam frowned as well, crossing her arms. "Andy… why did you call me Danny? I mean, sure, I'm calming down about what happened to my grandmother… but you don't have to be so rude! I'm just saying you shouldn't be so rude to Danny, because he is still your brother, despite you calling him 'Corrupted' Danny and telling his secret to the two people who would take it the hardest!"
"But wait, if Fenton's- … uh… Danny… uh… Phantom…? Doing all this, shouldn't we stop him or something?" Dash asked, sounding nervous and a bit awkward. "I-I mean… it'd make sense… right?"
I didn't say anything, mostly because what Sam said… am I really overreacting? I don't know… It just doesn't feel right, and Tucker and Sam's eyes were glowing red- I was so sure they were overshadowed by clones of my brother, but they kept their personalities even after I said 'bro'. Was I… was I wrong…?
Valerie then spoke up, cocking her ray gun in one hand and causing me to snap out of my thoughts. "I'm not sure if it's right or not, but… we certainly can't leave it like this, can we?" She frowned, looking at her ray gun. "... He's… still human too… but could we really let something like this go? Everyone's turning into ghosts! I don't care if it's half ghost or full ghost- like Andy said, this isn't natural, and what if there's more to it than that? What if there's some kind of bad side effect that'll happen over time? No… Danny may still be human, but he's clearly lost at least part of it- so we have to stop him here and now."
…Do… do I… really sound like that? That- that upset, that… cold towards Corrupted Da- …towards my own brother? I shook my head, I can't get sentimental now… if this breaks into an all out war, I can't let this get to me.
Tucker frowned, but he spoke up, looking at his PDA. "Well… I have the location of the real Danny in a hotel near here. Maybe if we go now, we can 'put a stop to him' before he wakes up."
"...But how are we going to get him to reverse this? I don't think he'd be all that willing to cooperate with us." I spoke up finally, trying to keep those doubts to the back of my mind.
"You can figure that out after we capture him." Sam spoke up, handing me the Fenton Thermos. "Now come on, we better hurry."
I nodded, looking over at Dash and Valerie. "You two keep us covered, make sure the other people don't try to stop us or anything- okay? Also, keep an eye out for my sister, she's looking for me."
"R-right…" Dash nodded, a small blush on his face. "We'll- we'll do our best!" ...Oh, right… he has a crush on Jazz.
"Okay, lead the way Tucker." I said to my techno friend, and he nodded.
"Alright, this way!" We all followed closely behind Tucker, Sam, Dash, Valerie and I kept a look out for anyone who's interested in us. We can't afford to stop and talk to them. Good, so far nobody's that interested… I'm glad Tucker kept his hologram so the halfas won't bother us, thinking we're one of them.
"Are we there yet?" Sam asked, looking around again.
"Yup, that building over there! He should be in the first floor." Tucker answered, pointing at a tall building.
I frowned, though… something wasn't right. I don't know what it is or why, but something inside me's telling me something's wrong, don't go in there. Why do I feel like this? I hesitated as Tucker and Sam were going ahead, slowly stopping.
"Hey… what's wrong?" Dash asked me, frowning in concern.
"... I-I don't know… something just doesn't feel right." I answered, still frowning at the building.
"Really?" Valerie tensed up a bit, looking around quickly. "What do you think it is, Andy? Do you think it might be a trap?"
"...I don't know, maybe…" I still wasn't sure- especially since I saw Tucker and Sam's eyes glowing red for a split second three times, and yet I'm still not sure if it's just my mind playing tricks on me due to the paranoia and stress of it wasn't my imagination after all and they really are being overshadowed.
"Come on, don't hesitate now." Tucker frowned, both him and Sam turning back to me. "You said it yourself, we have to end this as quickly as possible."
"I-I know, but…" I still didn't know what to do, what's the right thing to do?
Sam gave me a raised eyebrow as she crossed her arms. "...Are you thinking of the benefits of being a halfa, Andy?"
I looked at her in shock at that, my eyes wide. "What? N-no! I just… I'm not sure if marching in there is such a good idea! I mean… what if we get attacked? Valerie's the only one here that's equipped properly, all I have is the Fenton Rod and the Ray Gun on my wrist! We have the Fenton Thermos but if we're surrounded it wouldn't matter."
Tucker blinked, turning around to face me head-on. "Dude, the holograms are working perfectly- there's no way anybody would realize we're not halfas too!" He then raised an eyebrow, crossing his arms. "...Oh, wait, lemme guess- you still think we're Danny somehow, huh?"
I groaned, quickly shaking my head. "Look, if you want me to be honest I don't know what to think! I understand Corr- Danny is doing this with good intentions, but I don't know… this just doesn't seem right. And I'm worried that if we go in there, something bad is going to happen!" I told them, glaring in irritation at the accusations.
Sam sighed, shrugging. "Well, then, what do we do Andy? You say we're in danger if we go in, and you say we're in danger if we stay away- but you're not exactly giving any suggestions yourself, and you liked this idea just ten minutes ago!"
"Well, Andy? Are we going in or not?" Dash asked, giving me a curious glance.
"We can't wait too long- if we do, our chance may be over and then we'll be in trouble even more!" Valerie said, crossing her arms.
"W-why are you all looking at me for? Since when did I make all the decisions in this group?" I snapped. "Fine, we'll go in there and get my brother and cure him if we can! Maybe we can still reverse this…" my patience weren't exactly the best right now. If I had been more patient and didn't let the stress get to me, perhaps I could've made a better decision, but as it was, I was too on edge to think straight and the peer pressure wasn't helping- I just wanted to go in and get this over with!
Sam nodded with a small smile, turning around. "Alright then- let's do this!" ….Something really seems off about this… but as soon as we went in, we were stopped by a doorman. "Huh? H-hey, let us through!"
"..." The doorman… I couldn't tell what he was doing, but he seems to be talking into a phone or something before he nodded to us- specifically, to me. "You're… that kid's brother, right?"
"What?" I frowned, a bit surprised. "... S-so what if I am?"
"... Alright then. Come on in. Your brother's looking for you." the doorman said as stiffly as ever. He opened the door and this made me gulp nervously.
"H-he knows we're here?" I tried to back away, but Tucker and Sam stopped me. "I-I don't think this is a good idea after all, guys."
"Yeah, this seems a bit weird." Dash frowned, crossing his arms.
"Is this a trap?" Valerie demanded the doorman.
"I don't care, I just do my job." The doorman grumbled, clearly irritated about having to stand there instead of going off flying with the others. "Now are you heading in or not? My arm's getting tired." ...Or maybe he's… just an average doorman? Ugh… I-I don't know anymore!
Sam rolled her eyes as she gently pushed me in, Tucker following us as Dash and Valerie trailed behind. "Andy, don't worry about him- if we do this quickly like you wanted, we won't have to worry about any kind of ambush they quickly set up. Besides, Danny's asleep- he wouldn't be able to plan anything!"
Something still doesn't seem right… and yet, I find myself being pulled in by Tucker and Sam, they seem pretty impatient about this- and here I thought they didn't want to stop him. Dash and Valerie quickly followed us in as the doorman closed the door behind us, and it made me cringe as it felt like it was a seal to our fate.
"Hmm… according to my PDA… he's in this room." Tucker said as we stopped by a door. Opening it, I was surprised to see how roomy the room was. "Huh… guess he's really trying to step up from his own room."
I walked in slowly, seeing someone laying on the bed. I couldn't really see their face, but their body was red and black. I'm pretty sure it was Corrupted Danny, but… I didn't take a step further. Remember that feeling I got about something being wrong? Well, that feeling intensified the closer I got. I quickly looked around, feeling cold, like I was being surrounded, and yet there was nothing there. But I know something's wrong… I began to back away, but the doorway was blocked by my friends since I was the first one to walk in.
"Andy?" Sam whispered, blinking in confusion. "What're you doing? Hurry up and suck your brother into the Thermos- we can try to figure out a solution to this whole thing when we have more time and in a better place!"
She all but pushed me closer to the bed, and I almost tripped, but thankfully kept my composure. "... U-um… okay… someone hand me the thermos…" I still looked around, though- I was so sure there's someone else here!
Valerie and Dash walked in with me, Valerie giving me one of her thermoses- it wasn't that much different from the Fenton Thermos, just that it had red where the green usually is. "Th-thanks Valerie."
"Just hurry and get him, this place gives me the creeps." Valerie grumbled.
"Y-yeah… now that you mention it… it's kinda cold here." Dash shivered, glancing around. "W-what, do they not believe in heating or something?"
I frowned, but didn't take another step towards my brother. Instead, I looked back at Tucker and Sam, and they slowly closed the door as they looked over at us. I glared- it was cold, too cold for it to be normal. This constant feeling of being surrounded, yet we can't see anyone… Tucker and Sam acting weird… This isn't normal… it could only mean one thing. "Dash… Valerie… we just walked into a trap." I said quietly to them, slowly reaching into my pocket, gripping my Fenton Rod.
"W-what?!" Valerie's eyes widened, and she quickly primed her ray gun, aiming it around the room. "W-where are they!? My helmet isn't registering any ghosts, at all!"
"Wh-what do you mean we've walked into a trap!?" Dash squeaked, his eyes wide in fear.
"So… you figured it out, huh? I always knew you were smart Andy." Tucker said, his voice changing as his eyes finally turned blood red… just like Corrupted Danny's.
Sam smirked, crossing her arms as her voice and eyes did the same. "But tell us… what finally tipped you off? It was clear our acting skills were perfect- you didn't realize it a bit until the trap was sprung."
How could I have been so stupid!? The signs were all there yet I ignored it because I doubted myself! I took out the Fenton Rod and extended it, allowing the blue flames to flow out of it. "I didn't think Tucker and Sam would agree to being halfas as a good thing so easily for one thing, especially Sam after what happened to her grandmother. And besides, your eyes kept giving you away."
"I suppose I still have to work on my temper then." I froze, my blood running cold when I heard that voice coming from the bed. It turns out my brother woke up- when he did, I didn't know… but apparently it was long enough to set up this trap! Corrupted Danny smirked at me as he sat up, wrapping one arm around his bent leg as he raised an eyebrow. "Wouldn't you agree… bro? Heh… but either way, it was enough to trick you for a good enough amount of time- and I see you brought your friends too! Good, I was curious as to what happened to the clones that was assigned to them."
Dash was literally shaking like a Chihuahua behind me, Valerie looked hesitant, like she didn't know what to do. I glared, my grip on my Fenton Rod tightening. "... So all this time, you had this planned out. You used Tucker and Sam to lure me in." Suddenly more halfas surrounded us- the doorman, the manager, and some other faces I wasn't familiar with. They all surrounded us, bunching me, Valerie and Dash together, and Dash looked so pale I could swear he was gonna faint or have a heart attack! I gripped onto the Fenton Rod tightly, it was my only means of defense. Well I still have the Ray Gun but… I don't think I'd be using it much with so many ghosts close to our faces!
Corrupted Danny chuckled sinisterly, shrugging. "Well… when I heard from both Sam and Tucker's clone that you went to them, trying to take me down, how could I refuse such a great chance to get back to my brother again~?"
"I'm not going to let you take me or my friends!" I snapped at him.
"T-that's right! We're n-not going to be t-taken!" Dash yelped, but his high, squeaky voice betrayed his 'bravado'. I'm surprised Valerie's not saying anything, was she shocked speechless?
My brother raised an eyebrow as his smirk widened. "Oh~? Well I think one of your friends is already seeing my point of view… Isn't that right, Valerie~?"
"You can't be serious!" I snapped back. "Valerie's not going to fall for this!"
"..." Valerie stayed quiet, though, before she suddenly walked forward, towards him. She got on her hands and knees and said, "Please… don't hurt us. You can take us in, it's for the better. What's the point of running? You'd just catch us anyway."
"V-Valerie!? W-w-what are you d-d-doing!?" Dash yelled, still scared but clearly angry.
"Valerie!?" I was shocked and angry too, why is she giving up so easily? Did Corrupted Danny get to her too?
"Heh…" Corrupted Danny smirked up at me as he detached her helmet and slowly stroked her cheek. "Good girl… You see, bro? I'm not planning to hurt anyone who wants to join me on their own~"
"Valerie, why?" I demanded, feeling betrayed. "Why are you joining him!?"
"Just think about it Andy! We would never survive on our own like this- no matter where we go, we'll be hunted down. We can't possibly survive like that. It's best to just turn ourselves to him so we can avoid having to live life on the run like that!" Valerie said back to me, frowning stubbornly.
"B-but… I-I don't want to be a ghost…" Dash whimpered.
I frowned, but didn't say anything. Valerie turned back to Dark Danny, frowning curiously. "So… how does this whole process work?"
"Heh heh…" Corrupted Danny's smirk widened, and he shrugged, almost as if this was no big deal. "It's simple… but you'll have to take off your armor- I just can't do it while you're wearing something so restrictive~ But you need to come a bit closer too, you're too far away at the moment."
"Right." Valerie walked closer to him, I kept watching as Dash was trying not to freak out. But when she was standing in front of him, she suddenly pulled out the thermos! "Gotcha!" And she quickly sucked him into it! Honestly, I was shocked, and apparentlyo was everyone else! Valerie… she was acting!
"WHAT!?" I heard him scream angrily, before the thermos began to glow bright red and tremble in Valerie's hands. "Let me out, RIGHT NOW!"
"Uh-oh…! Andy! Dash! RUN! IT'S GOING TO BLOW!" Valerie yelled as she quickly threw the thermos like it was on fire!
The other halfas that had us surrounded froze, it's as if they could feel their 'Master's' anger and they were distracted- this gave us the chance to get the heck out of there!
The three of us didn't waste any time running like heck- we were out of the hotel in ten seconds flat! Of course by the time we got to the entrance, we heard and even felt a big explosion from the room we just ran from! "He's OUT! HE'S OUT!" Dash screamed.
"Keep moving Dash!" I yelled at him, we couldn't afford to stop now! "Valerie! Do you still have your hoverboard!? We'll never outrun him on foot!"
"Of course! B-but I don't think I could carry all three of us…" Valerie frowned worriedly, glancing between both of us. "The suit's meant for one, maybe two people, max- not three or more! I-I don't know if I could even fly if I carried both of you…"
"W-well then, w-we could just- WAH!?" Dash suddenly tripped, yelping in shock. I stopped and turned, but when I went to grab him, a red and black blur suddenly shot at me! And before I knew it, I was being carried through the sky!
"What the!?" I blinked, looking up to see it was Corrupted Danny and he had me by the shoulders, I gulped, one wrong move and those claws of his will rip me open!
"Heh…" Corrupted Danny smirked down at me, giving me a small squeeze as if to remind me who was controlling our flight. "Good to see you again, bro~ What, you thought you could escape that easily after your friend Valerie tricked me like that? Heh heh… not a chance."
"Give him back!" I heard Valerie's voice shouting not too far behind from us. I was happy to see Valerie on the hoverboard with Dash hanging on behind her. "You're not taking Andy!"
"Oh yeah?" Corrupted Danny retorted, a feral smirk on his expression. "And why should I? Especially after YOU TRICKED ME!" He then turned and sped off, still holding me… and now I think I have a fear of flying…! We are so high in the sky that the entire town just looks like a small speck! Oh my gosh, if he drops me I'm gonna die! "And I don't take it too kindly when I'm tricked!"
I looked back to see Valerie was falling further and further behind, Corrupted Danny was too fast! The more I look down, the more I feel like puking! "Valerie! I hate to be a nag, but could you do me a favor and FLY FASTER PLEASE!?"
"I'm going as fast as I can!" Valerie yelled back, and it was true- the engines on her hoverboard looked like they were about to burst! "Just… I dunno, try to slow him down somehow!"
"Oh?" Corrupted Danny chuckled above me, suddenly loosening his grip a bit! "If you do, you'd fall~ I'm sure you wouldn't want too big a scare, right Andy~?"
I yelped, looking down again. If I don't die from hitting the ground, then I'd probably die from heart attack. "D-don't even think about it!" I yelled at him. How am I going to slow him down!? He'd drop me the second I do and I'd risk a heart attack, along with possible death!
"Heh, oh I won't- just as long as you don't try to slow me down." Corrupted Danny quickly re-tightened his grip on me and began to speed up once more. "Now let's get away from those two meddling children- I want to turn you myself!"
Wait… I may not be able to do anything physical to him… but maybe I could slow him down by talking to him. Distraction should seem harmless enough for him not to drop me and slow him down enough for Valerie to catch up. It's worth a shot… "D-Danny… b-bro, is this r-really what you want?"
"Why wouldn't it be?" he shot back, rolling his eyes. "I want the world to be one, and frankly, this works, even if some people don't see it the same way at first."
"W-what have you been doing a-anyway? E-everyone's different… w-what do you do t-to those w-who don't a-agree with your v-views?" I asked him. This could be useful information as well as a good distraction, I just hope that Corrupted Danny doesn't figure out what I'm doing.
"...Hmph- I still transform them, then if they still want to go against me, they'll get a taste of my Mind Meld- heh, that name's a keeper." Corrupted Danny shrugged, looking where he was going now. "It's their choice on whether to use that power or not, but I give it to them, at the very least, not to mention I make them like it- besides, don't tell me you never felt like you wanted to fly."
"Right now I just want to throw up!" I snapped. "A-and speaking of w-which… if we don't l-land soon… I-I might…" I began making myself look sick, maybe this will get him to slow down.
"..." Corrupted Danny groaned, rolling his eyes as he flew down into a forest and reluctantly slowed down. "Fine, I'll slow down- but only so that you don't get this precious suit stained, I happen to like it!"
I mentally sighed in relief- good, maybe this will give Valerie and Dash a chance to catch up. But… wait… where are they? Did they fall too far behind? … I don't like this… where'd they go? What happened to them? I didn't have much to think about it because Corrupted Danny landed us in the forest, still holding onto me. I'm completely screwed, aren't I…?
DarkFoxKit: Ooooh snap, that did NOT just happened! Tucker and Sam lead Andy into a trap!
Key2DestNE: I know, I know- we're super evil, aren't we~? *chuckles mischievously*
Andy: I hate you two so much right now…
DarkFoxKit: What? How could you say such things? We ARE the ones who created this story for you, the least you could do is be a little more thankful for it!
Andy: Yeah- and you also TORMENT me within this story too!
Key2DestNE: Awwww, c'mon buddy- you mean to say you don't enjoy this a little bit?
Andy: NO! YOU TWO ARE-
DarkFoxKit: Remember, we control your fate little boy.
Andy: … The BEST of friends a guy could ask for.
DarkFoxKit: Smart answer~ While you're here, why don't you help us answer the reviews?
Andy: D-do I have to!?
Key2DestNE: Oh, absolutely~ muney73, that's my guess too- then again, it makes my job slightly easier, so… At least you liked last chapter- and the plot twist wasn't TOO shocking~
DarkFoxKit: We already gave it a name, it just hasn't been revealed yet- and yeah, we thought it'd be more interesting to use a different kind of mind control rather than the standard they control your mind, end of story. Leslidannyphantom, always loving your pictures! :D But I should clarify that the Fenton Rod is not a fishing rod, that would be the Fenton Fisher- the Fenton Rod is a metal rod designed for combat against ghosts, not trap them in an unbreakable fishing line. It's also something I created for Andy to use as his main weapon, I don't think the show itself ever had the Fenton Rod.
Andy: Yeah, I don't think it did either… but at least I have my own weapon! …..C-Captivi… Captivity!? *quickly hides behind Fox*
Key2DestNE: ...I'll take this one. *chuckles* Captivity, glad to hear you enjoy the possible Andy x Valerie pairing we've got~ If you're sure about Andy not being yours… but I DID have a big grand box all set up for him…
Andy: WHAT!?
DarkFoxKit: No more shipping my character to other people! SmileRed, yes, things really aren't looking good for him, poor guy.
Andy: *grumbles* You can say that again! Ora… well, the disclaimer in the past ANs did say that they made up the movie plot themselves, so I think it's safe to say this movie was 'fan made'. And no, Dan-
DarkFoxKit: Ahem! You're not supposed to know who Dan is yet! I'll take over from here. No, Dan doesn't come in until somewhere in the middle of the second season, this is in between the first and second. And that next line is for you Key.
Key2DestNE: ….That's… a clever idea. Sadly it's too late for that- I already got bitten multiple times… *pouts*
DarkFoxKit: Not to mention he'd literally burn down the stage… and the house! Counting Sinful Stars, yes, yes they were. Guest… uh… thank you for saying it's a great story, I'm flattered, really. And-
Andy: YES! YOU WERE RIGHT ON THE MONEY! E-except they were overshadowed, they weren't halfas yet… but they will be soon.
Key2DestNE: Well, that's the last of the reviews, guys- not bad, either! I'd ask for more, but meh, I'll take what I can get.
DarkFoxKit: At this point I'd just be happy to get enough to fill the bottom AN.
Andy: Hey! You two stop being so negative over this, you know and I know this story has a lot of fans, so stop complaining over people who don't leave comments!
DarkFoxKit: … Hey, does anyone want to meet Andy?
Andy: W-wait, what? *blinks, caught off-guard*
Key2DestNE: That's it, Fox- get into the spirit of things!
DarkFoxKit: Come here Andy, I think some of our reviewers would like to meet you!
Andy: N-no! NO! NO! NO! LEAVE ME ALONE! *begins running away*
Key2DestNE: GET BACK HERE! *runs after Andy, waving around a huuuuge butterfly net!*
DarkFoxKit: …. You do know Andy's not a fairy right? … Oh whatever. Fans, you know the drill, please leave a review and let us know what you think. I am DarkFoxKit, the guy chasing after Andy is Key2DestNE and we look forward to hearing from you!
