Ch. 5
"HEY FENTON! Why are you walking so funny? You look like my grandma!" Dash laughed. Danny swore under his breath. His leg had really been hurting, though it had stopped bleeding since he put the bandage back on, but he had been trying to hide it anyway. He must've limped accidently.
Dash grabbed Danny by the shirt and prepared to through him in the trashcan when the bandage fell off. The pant leg was already slide up to the knee, since Dash was holding him upside sown. Dash let go of Danny, who fell to the floor on his back with a crash, and stumbled backwards. [i]Erm, this is weird,[/i] Danny thought. Everyone in the hallway joined Dash in staring. Even Sam and Tucker stared, but they were very fearful.
Danny decided to lean over and pulled the pant leg back up to his knee so he could see.
He almost fainted at what he saw.
The holes were slightly bigger and were bleeding blue smoke. Just like the stuff that came out of his mouth. It also seemed to be glowing a pale turquoise. Danny stared at it as well, but realized with dread that this could be serious. He jumped up painfully, and walked quickly to the bathroom, all eyes following him.
He didn't want suspicion, so he told everyone as he walked, "Hehe. I decided to...umm...play with blue glow sticks last night. I must have gotten some of the liquid in my leg. And I'm allergic to it. Haha...yeah." Some people just shrugged it off, but many still stared. He was glad when he reached the bathroom, for it was empty.
He sat down on the floor (author: eww...but...lol) and unwrapped his leg. It was still leaking the blue ghost-smoke. With horrible dread, Danny realized what this could mean. Tucker interrupted his thoughts when he came crashing into the men's room. He stared, shocked, at Danny's leg.
"Danny! What is going on?!? What did that ghost do to you with it's bite??" he yelled.
"Shhh Tucker! I don't really know, but I know this isn't cut an average dog bite! I'm worried that it might have been some sort of ghost-poison," Danny said, standing up. "Needless to say, I need to go home and get the ghost back out of the thermos and find out what it did to me!"
Tucker stared at him. "You seriously think that ghost is just gonna tell you? It seemed [i]pretty[/i] mad at you, ya know...anyway, are you sure you can do it? What if it attacks you again? You can't afford another bite!"
"It's my only hope. I gotta go see. You and Sam, meet me at my house asap. Going ghost!" Danny told him as a flash of light showed he was changing. But when he was done changing, he stumbled forward. "Man, I need to find that ghost quickly! I'm already not feeling great as a ghost anymore..."
Tucker looked at him worriedly as Danny dissapeared and flew through the wall. Tucker then ran back outside the bathroom and found Sam right by the wall.
"No time to explain. Let's go! I'll tell you as we run!" Tucker told her as he grabbed her arm and ran out the door of Casper High.
Meanwhile back at home...
Jack lifted up a beaker. "Ah ha! This should help to get rid of the ghost in Danny...I hope," he cheered. Maddie was out doing research and he decided to deal with the problem all by himself, without even telling her. He looked around the lab, surprised that Danny and his friends had done such a nice job cleaning it. [i]Hmm...I'm sure they have LOTS of experience[/i], he thought glumly. He noticed the Fenton Thermos. [i]Maybe I can figure out how to make this work? And catch the ghost that posessed Danny? Later[/i], he thought, putting it back.
All of a sudden, he heard a [i]whoosh[/i]. He ran under the steps, completely hidden, and saw Danny-no the ghost Danny- fly in through the wall! He stared wide-eyed at...it.
Danny looked around the lab, careful not to touch any beakers. He found the thermos. [i]I ought to not open it until Tucker and Sam get here...oh, that's right! The door![/i] he thought as the doorbell interrupted him. He flew upstairs and pulled them back down through the floor and ceiling himself. This was almost too much for Jack.
"Okay," Danny said, "I need to let out JUST this ghost. Any ideas Tucker?"
"Well, I'm the only one here who is experienced in letting out ghosts from the Thermos," Tucker said proudly. silence, chirp, chirp, cough cough "Err...okay, I think it's probably that button: 'let out last ghost captured!'" Tucker pushed it, and with a blue light, Tomatomachu came back out. Its three beady eyes blinked, and its big mouth with those horrible fangs yawned. It shook a little, much like a wet dog. Then it realized where it was.
Jack was filled with horror when he saw what the ghost Danny had done.
"TOMATOMACHU IS FREE! YAY! TOMATOM-" it said until it spotted Danny. Then it cowarded away. "Tomatomachu no like ghost-boy. Why is ghost-boy here?"
Danny floated up to its face and stared into it's three scared eyes. "To...ma..chu..thing, I will let you go back into the ghost world yourself, free. BUT on one condition," Danny told it.
It looked at him, then the closed portal. "...Tomatomachu will do anything for free. Me wanted out," it said nervously.
Danny sighed and showed it his leg. Tomatomachu flinched when he saw the blue vapor. "But...but...Is ghost dust! Ghost dust!" it yelled. "Ghost dust! You lose power, then die perma from ghost dust! Me must get away from dust..." It looked innocently at Danny.
"Yeah right, fur-brains," Tucker said, "You caused it and YOU are going to fix it!"
Tomatomachu told them that he could fix it, but only in the ghost zone. "Okay," Danny told him, "But I'm not sure I trust you..." They floated to the portal, and Danny opened it.
"Danny," Sam said, "I'm not sure this is such a good idea..."
"Yeah, he could be tricking you!" Tucker said.
All of a sudden, a giant net came out of the portal and caught Danny. Tomatomachu smiled, and evil and hateful smile.
"Ghost-boy should've listen to friends. Now Tomatomachu and ghost-boy go to master!" Danny tried to escape, but the net was ghost proof. Tucker and Sam grabbed the net and tried to help him, but it was to no avail. In a second, Toma carried Danny into the portal, with nothing but blue smoke remaining.
"HEY FENTON! Why are you walking so funny? You look like my grandma!" Dash laughed. Danny swore under his breath. His leg had really been hurting, though it had stopped bleeding since he put the bandage back on, but he had been trying to hide it anyway. He must've limped accidently.
