To my reviewers Lightning Streak, Rachel Ember, GreyRavenNorth, Paige C, Jamie, and StoryCrafter, thank you!!!!

Jamie: You're smart. Oo

Paige C: Ok, thanks for the tip. I describe her a little better in this chapter.

StoryCrafter: THIS is what happens next! :D

DISCLAIMER: I don't own Danny Phantom! So, people who go strictly by the law, put down your pitchforks and torches! …please?

On with the story!

Note: I had to change it a little because I accidently said that Danny was doing his homework, but…IT'S SUMMER! I can't believe I did that.

---------------------------------

Danny couldn't sleep. Whenever he tried, he just kept thinking about what happened earlier…now he knew how ghosts felt when he put them in the thermos.

"I don't think Mom and Dad would notice if I went for a little walk," he thought to himself. He went ghost, phased through the wall, and floated over to the park.

A full moon lit up the park. He sighed and floated over to a bench, where he turned back human.

----

"Why can't I sleep?" Charlotte said to herself. But in her heart, she knew why. She was terrified Veclussier would try to hurt Danny – and succeed.

"Maybe a little walk – or fly – will help," she thought.

So she flew out of her house as a ghost and into the park. She was about to turn around and fly home, when she spotted a figure seated in the bench. It was Danny. She smiled at the sight of him.

----

Danny was looking at the faint stars twinkling in the sky, thinking. He suddenly gasped a little as he thought he saw a figure flying in the sky. He squinted, but he didn't see it again. He sighed. "I'm imagining things," he thought. "I should be asleep."

"Danny?"

He jumped at the voice. He certainly didn't expect someone to see him in the park at almost midnight! He turned around, then he realized he was facing Charlotte. "Oh, hi, Charlotte," he said, his heart still pounding. He was startled, who can blame him?

"Oh, sorry, did I scare you?"

"Not really. I just didn't expect to see you here. What are you doing here?"

"I couldn't sleep," she said simply. "What about you?"

"Same."

They started talking. Charlotte was content that she was there with him, so Veclussier couldn't attack without her knowing. Besides, she was happy to have someone to talk to.

Their talk was abruptly ended as a figure appeared before them. "Okay, Ghost Boy, you're coming with me to Skulker!" Veclussier was floating before them, ready to capture Danny.

Charlotte gasped. Risk her identity and save Danny, or just leave him? It didn't take her more than a split second to decide. A ring formed at her waist, and split in two, one traveling up her body and the other traveling down. She then faced the ghost, her green eyes glowing with fury.

Danny gasped at Charlotte. She was a ghost, no doubt about it. She was dressed in an old style dress and had long black hair. It was the ghost that had saved him from Veclussier so many times. He thought she had looked like Charlotte! He went ghost and was ready to fight.

A net from Veclussier suddenly trapped him. He struggled to break free. "LET ME GO!"

"LET HIM GO!" Charlotte screamed. Veclussier smiled and tried to punch her. She dodged the punch from him and shot a ball of energy at him. Veclussier dropped the sack Danny was in and staggered back for a second, but he came right back at Charlotte, repeatedly punching her.

"STOP!" Danny said, who was free from the net. He kicked Veclussier, who was slammed against a tree. Danny reached for the Fenton Thermos, then realized it wasn't there. "Oh no! I forgot the Thermos!"

He turned to Veclussier. He was lying on the grass, and then disappeared.

"Darnit, he got away," Danny said sadly. Then he turned to Charlotte in shock. "You're…a…a halfa…" Danny said, at a loss for words.

"Oh! Uh, no, it's not what it looks like! Uh --"

"I saw you turn in to a ghost."

"Oh, fine, you got me. I – don't tell anyone --"

"As long as you don't tell anyone about me, your secret's safe."

"Er – okay…"

"But how did it happen? I mean, don't tell me you got zapped by the ghost portal, like me and --" He stopped, realizing he didn't really feel like mentioning Vlad at the moment. "Me."

"That's what happened."

"But wait – why the heck were you in my house? Don't tell me you were breaking in!"

"What?! Of course not!" Charlotte said, a little angry Danny would even think that about her. "Danny, it's not exactly what you're thinking. Let me explain…"
