Jazz stood over her brother, she had laid him on the couch and cleaned the small cuts on his skin. He resting now, she was waiting for him to wake up so she question him on his whereabouts and what happened to him. She knew her brother well enough to know that he wouldn't tell her what happened, if anything, he would write it of as nothing and he was fine, even when he wasn't. But this, this was serious and she would force it out of him if she had to, she sat on the arm chair from across the couch, watching him as he slept.
Danny woke to see his sister sleeping in the arm chair from across him. She looked like she's been there for awhile. He looked down on himself to see he was still in his pajamas pants, he wanted to wake her up to tell her he was going to take a shower, but she looked like she needed the sleep so he left her there. After taking a shower he got dressed in a sweat suit and headed downstairs to get something to eat. Jazz was still asleep, so he decided he could just prepare dinner for the family, so he got busy in the kitchen being careful not to wake his sister up.
Jack watched his wife as she drove, she was so beautiful, but that's not why he was staring. She was tense but Maddie was always tense, so why was this any different. They had a meeting that morning with a potential sponsor for their Paranormal Research Lab but it turned out to be a joke. The man, Nicholia Technus was his name, just called them their to make them a laughing stock of the science community and for what, to make a point to his potential sponsors so he could get grant himself. It made Jack's blood boil, Maddie though was even more angry, not only did Technus make fool them but he did out of selfishness, but she did put him in his place, thoroughly embarrassing the man, but he still got the grant. Jack knew he didn't need those corporate sharks money, he just needed a team to help he and his wife work, the grant would just help pay the team and get new equipment. But he guess he and Maddie would have to make do with who they got which was each other.
Jazz woke up to the smell food cooking, the smell made her notice just how hungry she was. She walked into the kitchen to see her brother washing the dishes while something was in the oven, the smell was obviously coming from there. On the she could see he was steaming some vegetables, it also looked like he was cooking some rice, " You're up," Danny said to his sister as he was busy in the kitchen, "I could say the same to you," was he reply, he hummed and continued to clean the kitchen not wanting to leave a mess. It only took a couple more minutes before dinner was done and they're setting the table. During that time a vehicle pulled up into the driveway, Danny peeps through the window to see it was, it was their parents.
Dinner was awfully quiet for the Fenton family, each mulling over their day. Jazz worrying about Danny's wellbeing, Jack thinking of ways to cheer up his wife and Danny deciding whether or not he should tell his parents about last night. Dinner was over fast , everyone rushing straight to bed.
Danny's couldn't sleep, each time he closed his eyes they were either plagued with what happened the night before. He stayed staring at the ceiling, he looked at his alarm clock, still too early to wake but too late to go to bed, 3 am. He struggled to keep his eyes open, finally sleep over took him. His dreams, were different, this time he wasn't in a forest, he was at the playground, he was hanging with Sam again and Tucker his new friend was their too. They were obviously talking, about any and everything they could, Danny felt happy. That didn't last long though dream Danny was holding his throat like it was burning, he looked up at his friends with burning red eyes, he snarled showing sharp fangs. Dream Sam and Tucker backed away from him slowly, as stalked towards like the predator he was and then he attacked.
Jazz woke up to her brother's cries, they were muffled due to walls and hallway between their rooms, but she could hear it nonetheless. She walked quietly towards his room, he was silent but she could hear him breathing hard, he sounded like he was in pain. She went into his room without knocking, she saw that he was still asleep, but he was sweating hard. His face was scrunched up as he mumbled incoherently, the only she could make was "I'm sorry." He was twisting and turning getting tangled into his own sheets, she went over to shake him awake but she noticed his skin felt too hot to touch. He had a fever so she ran to her parents room to tell them, only to come face to face with Danny, but that was impossible "Weren't you just in bed a minute ago?" she asked him, but he wasn't answering her, he just stared. This was creeping her out "If this is a prank, it's not a very good one," she said to mask how frightened she was, he seemed to be in a trance . For the next few nights Jazz would find her little brother in this trance , she wanted to her parents about but she didn't want to distract them from their work. Danny did seem fine during the day or when he was awake but once he fell asleep he was back to his trance like state. She feared for her brother's health, tonight more than any other because tonight she wouldn't be there neither would their parents. Her parents were going to be having dinner with the mayor and she was going to her new friends' party, she had a decision to make and she hopes she's making the right one.
Danny was feeling strange all day, first it began with him waking up with serious sensitivity to light, then the hyper awareness of everything around him. His sense of smell, sight, sound, feeling and taste all heightened, his emotions were also affected he just felt overwhelmed. He also felt restless, full of energy but at the same time so tired. So he dealt with this development the best way he could, he ignored it. He was so well too until, "Danny, I'm worried about you," Jazz said to him softly, currently he was out back under an old tree far from the house, having a smoke. "About?" he asked her, he couldn't understand why she would worry he was doing just fine, but she went on to explain her reasons, he was surprised that she even noticed how he was acting, with her hanging out with her new friends and all. He knew that wasn't fair to her, she didn't have much friends in Salem so he should be glad that she was making friends here. "You've been sleep walking Danny," she said looking at him seriously, "So," was his simple reply, he didn't see why this was a big deal lots of people sleep walk, his father does it sometimes too. He shrugged her off, but he saw how worried she was so he decided to humour her, "I don't think I should leave you alone tonight," he looked at her, 'was she serious ' she couldn't be serious, but she was "What about your friend's party?" he asked, she appeared to think for a minute "I'll take you with me, " she decided, her voice left no rooms for questions, and with that she walked away.
