Another failed attempt to make this in character. I failed miserably.


Challenge Topic #7: Sunshine

Character(s): Sam Manson, Tucker Foley, Danny Fenton/Phantom


How long we were in the Ghost Zone and where the heck was I going?

"Oh man-!" Tucker clutched his stomach. "I'm starving!"

"We've only been here for a few minutes." I lied, trying to make him quiet. "I swear we'll find him before−"

"We're lost, aren't we?" he interrupted. I sighed, defeated.

"Yes."

Where was Danny when you needed him? If that idiot hadn't have been captured by Walker again, we would have been out and eating at the Nasty Burger hours ago.

"So, does that mean you don't know where Walker's prison is?" Tucker asked. "Cuz' I gotta better plan."

I stood up from my seat and offered him my spot.

"Not a clue." I replied. "But go ahead and find it yourself. I'll just be sitting here-" I scooted over the passenger side of the seat. "-waiting for your plan to work."

Tucker took the wheel.

"I'll find it fast than you." Tucker wagered. I rolled my eyes.

"Whatever."

We stopped and did a three sixty. The moment the Specter Speeder was in position to move forward, Walkers Prison was directly in front of us. Tucker smirked at me.

"Shut up." I said with my cheeks turning a little red from embarrassment.

"Did I tell you or did I tell you?"

I didn't respond, but Tucker was already headed in the direction of the prison.

"Once we save Danny, then we'll be able to get to the Nasty Burger! And eat! Meat!" Tucker yelped in joy as we parked next to the island. Gross.

"Once we save Danny." I accented the word 'once'. Tucker gave me a "psh" gesture.

"Danny's tough. I bet we don't even have to save him−"

"AAARRRGGGAAAHHH!" a piecing scream echoed from the prison. Danny was in trouble!

"I stand corrected." Tucker stated dumbly as he grabbed a blaster as I got the Thermos and Booooo-merang from the back of the vehicle (still a stupidly named homing device).

Tucker ran to the front and pounded hard on the doors. "Let us in!"

"Uh, Tuck?" I called. Tucker looked at me. "We're in the Ghost Zone, right?"

"Yeah? So?"

I walked though the wall. Doors were the only things that weren't intangible to humans.

Tucker grinned sheepishly. "I knew that."

Waiting for Tucker to follow, I glanced around. We were in a hallway, luckily, with no guards. Pulling out the boomerang, I gave it a strong throw. It flew forward and wavered around a corner. Tucker and I rushed after it.

"AAARRRGGGAAAHHH!" Danny's scream again, urging the both of us to move a little faster.

"Where are you, Danny?" I whispered. After what seemed like hours, we heard a satisfying "oof!"

"Danny!" Tucker and I exclaimed.

"Tucker? Sam? Where are you guys? I can't see anything!"

Following his voice, we eventually reached an empty room with Danny inside. He was in ghost form, sitting down while chained up to the wall, blindfolded. Picking up the tracking device, we went over to him.

"You guys here?" he asked blindly.

"Yep!" Tucker said as he shot the chains off his wrists. They slumped down to the floor lazily. "Now come one dude! Turn human so we can get out of here!"

"Um…about that?" Danny said, not moving any part of his body but his mouth. "Walker gave me some kind of pill that would make my body numb, so even if I could break free from these chains, I still wouldn't move."

"Great." I groaned as Tucker tried to lift him, but failing horribly.

"INTRUDER ALERT!" the speaker blared as we all jumped. "ALL PERSONNEL ARE TO REPORT TO PRISON 624!"

"Oh man!" Tucker panicked. "How are we supposed to move him?"

An idea lit up in my head.

"I know you'll hate this, Danny." I said as I took out the Thermos. "But you'll just have to bear it."

A bright blue light erupted from the Thermos as Danny was, reluctantly, sucked inside. I leapt through the wall with Tucker just before the first guard entered the room. We sprinted back to the Speeder and jumped in, with me flooring the accelerator. The Speeder zoomed as fast as it could, amazing dodging all the floating doors, and landing just inside the lab. Tucker and I didn't speak a word to each other, but he instinctively ran out and shut the portal doors. They closed with a relieving thud.

"That was too close!" he said, gripping the wall with alarmed eyes.

"Yeah." I breathed out as I tried to make my heart rate slower. Exhaustedly, the two of us climbed back upstairs and walked out of Danny's house.

"To the Nasty Burger!" Tucker announced.

How that kid still has energy to walk, I'll never understand.

Taking off the cap to the Thermos, Danny flew out, no longer paralyzed.

"SUNSHINE!" he proclaimed as he took off his blindfold and floated up to the sky, looking like he was going to hug it. "I'VE MISSED YOU SO MUCH!"


Ugh. I don't like this chapter all that much either. Oh well, then.
