"So he's trapped in there with some weird ghost girl...who he can actually understand," She glanced over at Sam and Tucker who looked at each other uncomfortably. "And there's no way that I can get back in there without mom and dad knowing...unless we cause a distraction, but how could we help him? I was just floating around...it was like I was in space or something. I couldn't control where I went at all." She sighed.

"Your dad has a rocket pack," Tucker said. Sam nudged him...hard. "Ouch!"

"He does?!" Jazz grinned. "Great! I'll go back in there and tell him it's down..." She looked over at them, realizing suddenly that once again, they didn't know she knew about Danny, "And get him out of there."

"Why do you get to go in?" Sam asked, taking a step towards her in defiance.

"Unless you two have been keeping something from me," Jazz chose her words carefully, "I'm the only one that's been to the Ghost Zone. And if you have, you definitely owe me an explanation as to how you got back again." Sam and Tucker exchanged glances again, and then looked down.

"You have to take this web cam," Sam said suddenly, yanking a wired mess out of Tucker's backpack.

"Hey!" He glared at Sam as she picked a piece of electrical wiring out of the center of it and handed it to Jazz.

"Got it," Jazz said. "Now someone needs to get mom and dad to lower the shield. They're probably already working on it, but we need to speed them up if we can.

"Right," Sam said. "But I still don't like the idea of you going alone."

"You can come after me once you get mom and dad to lower the shield. After listening to them blather on about it for the last few days, you may have to get them to take it completely apart."

"We could just tell them why you need to get in there," Tucker pointed out.

"But then they'd go rushing in after Danny. That wouldn't be good," Jazz shook her head, "Those poor ghosts." She glanced over at them. "Besides, I'd rather get Danny out of trouble BEFORE he gets grounded for life."

"Good point," Tucker conceded.

"So I'm going after Danny, and Sam's going to take care of the shield. That leaves a distraction." Both girls turned with unpleasant smiles on their face, and stared at Tucker.

"Oh no..." he started, but before he could say anything else, Jazz took a deep breath.
"MOM! DAD! TUCKER SAW A GHOST!" Jazz counted down on her fingers, and her parents arrived in the kitchen just as she got to one.

"WHERE?" Jack asked.

"WHEN?" Maddie was right behind him.

"DID YOU RECOGNIZE HIM?"

"WHAT DID HE LOOK LIKE?"

As they continued to bombard Tucker with questions, Sam and Jazz took off to the basement.

"Be careful," Sam said and held up Tucker's PDA. "I'll be watching you."

"Right," Jazz smiled. "I heard mom say something about second cupboard on the right, is that where Dad put it?" Sam nodded, glancing anxiously up the stares, where the Fentons could still be heard in loud but muffled voices. Jazz tapped the porthole open as she finished strapping the rocket on.

"How do I control this thing?" She asked. Almost as if it heard her, a little control panel shot out of the rocket pack, and ended up near her hand. She looked at Sam who shrugged, and grabbed the joy-stick type lever on it. Immediately the pack took off.

"AAAAAA!" She couldn't help but yell as she went zooming towards the ghost zone. Sam quickly closed the door, and waited for Mr. and Mrs. Fenton to come running down stairs. She didn't have to wait long.

"What was that?" Maddie asked. Sam shrugged.

"Where's Jazz?" Again Sam shrugged. "Maybe she's up in her room. Maybe she left." Sam nodded and walked over to the box as if to study it.

"I was just wondering how this worked," she said. Jacks face brightened immediately.

"Well, the idea's based on the fusion of..."

Danny was beginning to realize just how little of the Ghost zone they had mapped out as Clarice took him passed several porthole-looking vortexes, and through several others. It was like one big maze, but she seemed to know where she was going, so he followed, not saying anything. She didn't talk to him either, except to say "this way", or "take the next right," and other similar directions. Finally, they ended up at a door not unlike Danny's own front door...except it was purple, like almost every other door Danny had seen in the ghost zone. "Just a sec," Clarice grinned at him and knocked on the door.

"Allie?" She called. Danny immediately tensed up. He'd heard that name recently...but where? The door opened, and another Ghost girl stood there, wearing a red jacket, and a pink shirt. Her skin, like Clarice's, was also green, although a slightly warmer tone, and her hair was black. Danny knew he'd seen her before, but he couldn't place where.

"So, you took care of those humans?" Allie asked. Clarice nodded. "Good," Allie smiled, and looked at Danny. "Who is...wait," Her smile vanished, "I know you..."

"You do?" Danny asked, immediately on his guard.

"You don't remember do you?" Allie floated over to him. "Give me red eyes, and wild hair-"

"At the store!" Danny said, remembering the ghost he had stopped earlier that day.

"Correct," Allie began to advance on him, "And I have something to say to you, Ghost Boy."
