Dark Danny threw Danny into the wall to their side and chased after him through the hole.

Tucker hovered over Sam as she continued to cringe in pain, not sure what to do. "Sam? What's happening? What should I do?"

Sam winced as a particularly sharp pain went through her side and head. "I think-" if her hands weren't still taped shed be clutching at her head and side. "- he's in me somehow? Trying to control my body. I feel like something is crawling all over inside me and is trying to get me to relax but if I resist then I feel like I'm being pricked with 1,000 needles all over but it's especially bad in my head and on my side where my stiches are." As if on que she groaned in pain again.

Tucker looked at her not sure what to do. "Um…maybe try to half-fight it?"

Sam looked at him like he had two sets of eyes, well as best as she could while wincing in pain. "Tucker what are you even trying to get at?"

"Maybe it's like when Danny got his powers and he got zapped but his body had to get acclimated to the ghost DNA, like accept it?" Tucker shrugged his shoulders. He had no idea if what he was saying made any sense but at least it seemed to somewhat distract her from the pain.

"How am I supposed to do that?! Every time I give in I black out and I'm in some new area in a crazy situation." She glanced around the room and saw that they were in her grandmothers room. Her parents had started packing it up after the funeral and she hadn't set foot in here since she died. The room was becoming thoroughly wrecked as Dark Danny and Danny continued to fight.

"I don't know! When he was controlling you you could use some powers like ecto-blasts and it's not like he took the ectoplasm out of you. So theoretically you should be able to still use the powers without him being in control."

Sam rolled her eyes. "Yeah, let me just open up the ghost-zone rule book on how to channel ectoplasm." She said sarcastically.

Tucker was about to give a snarky reply back until he noticed she wasn't hunched over in pain at the moment. "What are you doing now? Do you not feel pain anymore?"

Her eyes widened as she came to the same realization that he did. "No! I don't feel anything right now but I haven't done anything so what changed?" She looked down at her hand and side but nothing was noticeably different.

"Look!" Tucker shouted as he pointed off somewhere behind her. As Sam turned around, she saw Danny panting in exhaustion and Dark Danny frozen in ice.

Danny turned towards them. "Are you guys all right?" He quickly flew over to them. "Sam are you hurt? Are you…um you?"

Sam nodded. "I feel fine now but I'm not sure why."

Tucker spoke up. "I think it's because Danny froze his evil self. If he's frozen he can't actively be trying to control you maybe?" He ended his observation as more of a question than a statement.

Danny looked to his enemy and then back to Sam. "I think Tucker's right but that won't hold him for long. I've gotten stronger with my powers but I doubt it's enough to keep him down. We need to figure out how to get the ectoplasm out of you."

"Danny I think we're long past that point. Unless you plan to cut me open and suck every bit of ectoplasm out of me, we need to come up with something else."

Tucker waved his hands in their faces. "Um, hello? What about my idea? It wasn't complete non-sense." He saw Danny look at him questioningly. "I suggested that she try to use the powers herself, like figure out a way to control the ectoplasm in her body."

To Sam's surprise Danny didn't look at Tucker like he was an imbecile. "Sam does your body feel a bit colder than usual? Like you're constantly about to shiver but never actually get to that point?"

Sam frowned in concentration as she focused on her body. "I do feel a little bit colder than normal."

"Okay, that's…good I suppose. Whenever I transform I focus on the coldest part in my body and let it take over me. You'll feel like your freezing over for a second but let it take over you and when it's done your body should feel like its lighter and the cold should feel even throughout your body. Try to focus on what feels the coldest."

Sam closed her eyes and focused on the coldest part in her body which happened to be where her incision site was for her appendix. "This feels weird."

Danny chuckled. "You get used to it."

Tucker and Danny watched as a blue ring fizzled into appearance. "That's it Sam! Keep going!"

Just as the ring started to part Sam yelped in pain and clutched her head. "Arghhh!" She bent over just as they all heard a crack from the ice.

Danny looked towards Dark Danny just as he saw another crack form. "Tucker, get you and Sam somewhere out of the way. Keep working on it and I'll try to keep my evil self away." He shot off towards Dark Danny just as he exploded out of the ice. The explosion stopped Danny mid-air and caused him to shield himself from the ice shards.

Dark Danny smirked. "I see you're trying to escape my control. That can be fixed." He went to fly towards them but didn't make it very far as Danny grabbed his foot and swung him in a circle before throwing him through the window, effectively breaking the second one of the evening.

"Tuck, get this tape off of me!" Sam half shouted as she threw her head back in pain attempting to clutch it with her bound hands.

"But…but what if you-" He was interrupted by Sam as she ground out a retort.

"I won't turn back. Now I know what to focus on and I can deal with the pain." Tucker still looked hesitant. "TUCKER!"

"Alright, but if you attack me you're buying me the latest PDA model." He unwrapped the tape from around her feet and hands.

As soon as she was free she stood up and started quickly stepping towards the door and to her room as fast as she could while clutching her side.

"Where are you going?" Tucker asked as he got up to follow her.

"I need to get to my room and get my Fenton earphones." They had reached her room since it was not very far down the hall from her grandmothers room.

His eyes lit up in recognition. "Do you think they'll interfere with him trying to control you?"

Sam nodded. "I hope so. Since he isn't actually overshadowing me, he must be using some kind of ghost frequency or something to control the ectoplasm in me. Maybe they will block out the signal. I'm not sure but it's worth a shot and will make it a lot easier to focus." She shifted around in her nightstand drawer until she found them. "Got it!" Just as she held them up they heard a crash from down the hall.

Before she could put one in, Dark Danny flew into the room and grabbed her by her shirt.

"Sam!" Tucker shouted. He quickly looked around the room to see if there was anything he could use to help. Seeing the Fenton lipstick on her dresser to the left of him, he ran to grab it. After uncapping it he pointed it at Dark Danny. "Stop! Don't make me use this!" Dark Danny took his attention off of Sam for a second to look at Tucker. As he did, Sam was able to put one of the phones in her ear but as she was about to do the other Dark Danny swiftly turned so she was in the line of fire of the Fenton lipstick causing her to drop the other earphone out her hand.

"Go ahead." Dark Danny said as he laughed evilly.

Tucker hesitated, not wanting to hit Sam. Dark Danny took that opening to throw a blast aimed at him but luckily Tucker was able to jump out of the way. He then turned intangible with Sam and started to fly out of the house through the ceiling. "I guess spectra and I have some kinks to work out."

"No!" Tucker shouted just as Danny came sprinting into Sam's room.

"Tucker?" He looked him up and down to make sure he wasn't hurt. "Where's Sam?"

Tucker pointed outside. "He took her!" Danny looked towards the broken window outside and saw Dark Danny flying away with a struggling Sam.

"Stay here, I'm going to get her." Just as Danny was about to take off Tucker shouted.

"Wait!" He ran over to where Sam dropped the other Fenton earphone. "She was trying to put these in. It might help her fight him controlling her." Tucker handed it to Danny who looked skeptical but took it anyway. Danny then shot off out the window towards Dark Danny and Sam.

Tucker looked on in worry until he heard a light thump. He looked around confused as to where the sound could have come from. When he heard it again it was clear that it came from the room that was connected to Sam's bedroom wall. Running out of the room, he ran to the next one over only to find it empty. "That's weird." Then he heard the thump again and saw the closet door move. Walking up to it, he opened it and saw Mr. and Mrs. Manson fall out to the ground. They were bound together with ectoplasm and also had their mouths covered by it, preventing them from speaking. "Hehe. Hi Mr. and Mrs. Manson…uh I can get you out of this but you're not going to be happy." He used the Fenton lipstick to carefully cut the mouth gags off first.

"You better explain yourself right now young man! I am going to call the police for what you've done and you and that ghost boy won't be around any longer!"

Tucker winced as she basically shouted in his ear. He was about to cut the ectoplasm off the rest of them but then thought better of it. They were less annoying- ah 'more safe' restrained in the house where Dark Danny couldn't get them. "Actually, it's still super dangerous right now so I'm going to go help Danny and Sam! Be back soon!" He got up and ran out of the room with the goal of actually finding Danny and Sam as he heard both parents yelling for him to 'come back this instance!'

With Sam…

Sam continued to struggle to get out of Dark Danny's grip as they flew high through the sky. "Let me go!"

"If you actually want me to let you go, I'll gladly let you plummet to your death." With that said, Sam actively stopped struggling.

"What do you want with me anyway?" Sam questioned.

Dark Danny spared her a glance as he continued to fly forward. "As you know, my Sam is gone but that doesn't mean I stopped loving her. I was working on a-"

"And what you think I will replace her?! I'm 16 first of all so that's gross and second I wouldn't be with you if you were the last Danny on Earth!"

He rolled his eyes. "I may be evil but I'm not a creep! I had spectra work on a serum to age you up to my age, the age my Sam would be if she were still alive. With my ectoplasm as the base you should have also inherited…evil-like qualities along with ghost powers so we could become the ultimate power couple!"

Sam stared at him blankly. "You're more deranged than the fruitloop Vlad. I knew you were a little off but not this far gone."

Dark Danny clenched his teeth in annoyance and was about to yell in anger as he felt ice encase his legs. He was so startled he let go of Sam who started to plummet towards the ground screaming.

Danny swooped down to her and caught her before she could fall too far. "Sam!" He smiled as she smacked his chest.

"What the hell Danny!? A little more warning next time?"

Danny smirked. "I'll be sure to notify you the next time I'm getting you away from my enemy."

Before Sam could come up with a response she heard a blast and ice breaking from above them. "You certainly are a nuisance." Dark Danny grimaced as he brushed off remnants of ice from his pants.

"Give it up! It's over." Danny shouted up to him.

"Oh, it's far from over." Dark Danny shot towards them at full speed but Danny was able to dodge out of the way. He couldn't do much else with Sam in his hands. Bob and weave was his strategy for now.

Just as he dodged another punch, Sam lurched forward suddenly and almost caused Danny to drop her.

"Owww!" Sam yelled as she clutched her head.

Dark Danny laughed. "Just because you've figured out how to fight me doesn't mean I can't still control you given enough time to wear you down."

Danny grit his teeth as he tried to focus on avoiding Dark Danny's hits while keeping Sam out of harms why and trying not to jostle her too much. Then he suddenly remembered the other earphone Tucker gave him. "Sam, here's the other earphone. Tucker said you thought it might help." He handed it to her since he didn't have the luxury to spare a moment to put it in her ear.

She grabbed it and fumbled a bit to get it in her ear since they were moving around so much but once she got it in she activated it. Her head and side stopped aching. "It worked…Danny, it wor-Ahhh!" Sam was suddenly knocked out of Danny's hands and swiftly plummeting towards the ground.

"SAM!" She heard Danny yell as she flailed about in the air. They were at least 15,000 feet in the air, something she hadn't realized until she saw just how high above the ground they were as she fell. "Sam, change! Change now!" Flipping around towards his voice she saw him struggling to get free of Dark Danny to get to her.

She tried to focus on the cold spot in her body again but it was difficult when you're being knocked around by the wind, hardly able to breathe as you plummet full speed towards the ground. Closing her eyes, she tried to zone in on the cold spot.

10,000 feet.

Sam started to feel the cold seep deep into her bones and wash over her slowly. It felt awful, like she was losing all the heat in her body and was going to freeze to death.

8,000 feet.

Her whole body felt light, like how you imagine a cloud would feel.

6,000 feet.

The cold spread all the way from the top of her head to the tips of her toes. Her breathing slowed and her heart came to a near stop.

3,000 feet.

She opened her eyes to see examine herself only to see how close she was to approaching the ground at full speed. Her eyes widened as she screamed in panic. She thought she heard someone yell her name as she held her hands out on reflex as if she were simply tripping over a rock and falling to the ground.
