Chapter 2

"Is she going to be alright?"
"I hope so."
"Sure she will, she just fainted, right?"
Voices were all around her, yet she could not see who spoke them. Everything was in darkness. All the voices did seem concerned. But she could not place those voices. Though one did sound like...
"Danny, your sure? We shouldn't take her to see the nurse or something?"
"We cant, not after what she saw."
Danny!!! And the other one was Sam! And Tucker too! She felt her eye open slowly and as it did, she began to see colors, then shapes. She finally was focused enough to see three worried faces staring down at her.
"Your awake!" Danny said, smiling.
"Yeah." Rosa said, rubbing her shoulders and she sat up. "Man, what happened?"
"You, uh.." Tucker started.
"I saw you lying on the ground, so I picked you up and took you to here, then told the teacher you weren't feeling well and got a slip for you so you didn't miss any classes. Here.." Danny handed her the slip.
"Thank you." Rosa said, taking everything in. She looked around noticing she was in the cafeteria. It must have been lunch. Which meant she missed one and a half of her classes. She sighed, thinking how well she was getting along with the teachers at this school. Then she remembered what happened to her and looked at her new friends. She realized they wouldn't believe her and kept quiet about what she saw. They also didn't seem real excited to hear what happened either, so they all stayed silent. What broke the silence was a bowl of pudding landing on Danny's head. Rosa turned to see who threw it, it was a blue eyed, blonde haired boy with very broad shoulders and looked like a genuine football player. But she instantly knew that also, this boy was rude, mean and selfish. Danny meanwhile, sighed and took off the bowl while looking at the mess on his head. Rosa turned back to him and pulled out a packet of tissue she carried around. She handed it to Danny.
"Thanks." He said, taking tissue out and wiping off his face.
"No problem, who is that guy?" She asked.
"Name is Dash, he has something out for me, he really likes to pick on me." Danny obviously was not happy about it.
"Yeah, I know how you feel, I used to get teased all the time at my old school." Rosa sighed.
He blinked and looked at her. "Why?"
"Because of my...." She stopped.
"You don't have to tell us if you don't want to." Danny said hurriedly.
"Its just-"with that, the bell rang. Rosa silently thanked the bell for ringing, then took off. "Ill see you guys later! I can't miss class!"
Danny looked after her. Tucker nudged him.
"Hmm?"
"Does Danny have a crush on the mysterious new girl?" Tucker grinned.

"Well..no! She's just new is all, and frankly after what she saw.."
"It's alright Danny, she doesn't know who you are." Sam said, trying to calm him down.
"It was just weird okay? She's nice, but also strong. She could be a good ally."
"Well, maybe.. but she is also hiding something too. We can't trust her fully unless she reveals things too." Sam thought out loud.
"Lets catch her after school, maybe we could talk to her then." Tucker suggested.
"Great idea Tuck." Danny and his two friends got up and started towards class.

In her class, Rosa fidgeted in her seat. She really wanted this day to be over, so she could write in her diary about what happened to her today. She also couldn't help but think of that strange ghost boy.
"He's a Halfa you know." The strange voice said in her mind.
"I know that's what he is." She retorted
She knew about everything supernatural, although her parents both believed all of it was false, she couldn't help to look it up. Its where she felt like she truly belonged, to be like them. She had heard about halfa's while on her search, but she never had seen one in real life. If only I could talk to him, she thought to herself.
..........................................................................................

"It is doubtful, he could be anyone from school." The voice that annoyed her hissed.
"Leave me alone already. I know your suppose to be this other side of me that I never show, so get lost."
"I will always be inside you Rosa, you can't change that. You can never get rid of me."
"But I can trap you!" mentally Rosa trapped her other self in a container in her mind. "There! And stay there!"

The bell rang.

.................................................................................................

Rosa blinked, the tossed everything in her backpack and ran out of the school, to see Danny and his friends waiting for her outside. They waved to her. She sighed and walked over to them.
"Hey." Danny said.
"Hey," Rosa replied. "I have to get home."
"Where do you live?"
"167 Maple lane." Rosa replied.
"That's on the way to my house," Danny grinned, "I can walk with you until there."
"Sure." Rosa replied. She didn't mind it really. But she was anxious to get home.
On the way, Danny tried every way he could think of to try to get her to talk about her problem. But she was stubborn, she would not give away the information that quickly. Finally they got to her house. She waved bye to Danny and went inside, Danny continued the walk home, frustrated.


Two weeks later, Rosa and her new friends were out for ice cream. She finally had friends. It was amazing! She loved it. She even considered telling them her secret. They made her feel so safe. Although Danny would do random and strange disappearing acts and Sam and Tucker always told her it was nothing. Tucker would also sometimes leave too. But it was that day she would never forget.
As Danny was listening to Rosa talk about her sister and what she did the other day, he suddenly felt a strange case of the shivers and saw a blue stream of air come from his mouth. He narrowed his eyes. Making up a stupid excuse he left the table and ran to the nearest door.
Rosa saw this and frowned. "Wait, Danny!" She got up and ran after him. Sam and Tucker followed, telling her to stop. But she didn't listen. Then a ghost formed right in front of her. She screamed and stopped. She looked up, terrified at the large green gruesome ghost that stood before her. Its red eyes looked through hers and almost made her skin crawl.
Tucker and Sam stopped a distance away.
"Rosa! Run!!" They both cried out. But she could not, she was frozen in place. It raised its arm, ready to smash it into her. That's when she saw a streak of white and black, the halfa was back! His glowing green eyes looked angry too.
"Leave her alone!" He started to fight the monster and kicked it hard into a wall, knocking over the 51 or more flavors sign. He looked at Rosa. "Run!" he shouted.
Now, finally able to move herself, she started to run, but soon tripped on a pipe from the nearby sign that was on the ground and fell to the floor.
"Sam! Tuck! Get her out of here!"
"Right, come on Sam!" Tucker and Sam ran over to get Rosa. She blinked as they picked her up.
"I'm fine, we have to help.. him."
"Don't worry, he can handle this... Danny is good-"realizing what he said, Tucker closed his mouth. Rosa's eye widened. "Danny?!"
"Now look what you did Tucker!" Sam smacked him.
"Ow! Sorry!"
Rosa stood up and saw the thermos now sticking out from Tuckers backpack. Quickly grabbing it, she ran to help Danny. More like limped, apparently she twisted her ankle when she tripped.
"Danny! Catch!" Rosa threw the thermos as hard as she could.
He spun when he heard his name and caught the thermos, he pulled the lid off and sucked the ghost into it. He floated to the ground. "Did you just-"
"Yes, I know its you Danny Fenton." She seemed a little mad. "And why did you keep this from me?"
"I didn't think- and Tucker said."
Rosa eyed the two behind her. "Okay, lets settle this at Danny's place alright?"
With that, the four of them went to Danny's house in silence.

When they got there, they all sat in his room, Rosa and Danny on his bed, Sam in a nearby chair, and Tucker on the floor.
"Look, Rosa... I didn't mean to keep this from you, I just didn't know if I could trust you yet. You see, I don't want many people to know, that I am a..."
"Halfa." Rosa sighed.
"You know about Halfa's?!" Tucker was surprised.
"Yeah, when I didn't have any human friends, I decided to try the dead. Some talked about halfa's."
"You can talk to dead people?" Sam said that in a very monotone voice.
Rosa put her hand over her mouth to keep from laughing. "Not really, I used one of those talking boards. I just never thought a halfa would be here."
"Yeah, it was sort of a accident. I was in my parent's lab and went into this non-working ghost portal, to see what was wrong, I accidentally hit a button and then zap! Hehe, I realized after that I was a halfa."
"Amazing." Rosa whispered.
"But we also know you have your share of secrets too." Tucker raised an eyebrow.
Rosa sighed. "It happened when I was little. I too have snuck into my parents lab, but I'm afraid what happened to me wasn't so lucky. The experiment in there was dangerous, and something went wrong." She shook her head. "Later on when I woke up, I realized I had been in a coma for two months, with horrible scars all over my body. They soon disappeared, but one thing didn't." She put her hand on her face, then removed her hair from her left eye.
The three others gasped in horror.
