Hey, people! Everything going well in your world? In my world, things are going fine, especially now that the new Danny Phantom episode is coming up soon. Thanks for the reviews. Oh, and this is a response to Jamie: Danny couldn't fly through the snow because the wind would keep blowing him off course. And it would feel much colder than usual in his suit because none of the clothes he wears in human form he stays wearing in ghost form. So any blankets or stuff he has on there, they would disappear when he transforms.
Alright, now that that's out of the way, let's get moving! Chapter 17 is here and Danny, Tucker, and Dash are on their way to the ship to get medicine for the sick Sam!
Danny, Tucker, and Dash walked quickly through the snow. The walking in the snow part wasn't hard because of the snow shoes that they had made out of the chairs.
They had gone out of the library through a window not too far from the room with the fireplace. It was where Dash had said that he and Kwan had gone back in through.
Their plan wasn't too difficult. Just follow in the direction they had seen the ship go in. They just had to hope that it hadn't gone very far.
Dash walked up further ahead of them, but not too far so Danny and Tucker couldn't see him.
Tucker said to Danny, "Why do you look so worried?"
Danny stuttered, "Uh, uh, w-what do you m-mean? I'm just fine. Don't I look fine? Yep. Sure do."
Tucker chuckled, "Save it, Danny. I know you like Sam."
Danny sighed, and then said, "Okay, you're right."
"Don't try to deny it, Dan…Wait, did you just admit it?"
"Yep."
"Wow! Did you tell her?"
"Yep."
"Double wow! How did she react?"
"We did a little lip-smacking last night." Danny smiled slyly at this.
Tucker high-fived him, "Triple wow, dude! For how long?"
"Look, I'll tell you later. We've got to find that medicine for Sam."
"Okay, dude. Chill. It's not like we've reached that ship yet."
"Let's just keep walking fast. Anyway, what did Valerie want to talk to you about?"
Tucker blushed a little, "Oh, uh, um, she just wanted to tell me to be careful, and uh…to…"
Danny raised his eyebrow.
Tucker sighed, "Okay, she hugged and kissed me too."
Danny chuckled, "Well, I'm not as against it now that she's not as hostile against my ghost half anymore."
Just then Dash turned around to them and said, "Hey, guys. We're here!"
Danny and Tucker stopped walking and looked up. Sure enough, the same ship that had passed through the city a few days ago had stopped in the snow. They looked back, and saw that they could still see the library.
Danny said to them, "Alright, let's go inside." He walked up ahead, with Dash saying, "Hey, who made you boss, Fenton?"
The three of them walked to a door and entered the ship. They shined flashlights in front of them to see. They had found them in the library.
They walked down the first hall and to a flight of stairs. They began to walk up it.

Outside, three wolves were flying through the air.
Their adventure had been a strange one indeed. After escaping from the zoo, they were about to be washed away when the tidal wave hit. But while they were underwater, a strange thing happened. A truck carrying ectoplasm had spilled open, and had gotten all over them. They were transformed into ghosts.
After that, they had flown out of the water to safety. They had hidden for a while, but smelling the three teenagers that were now onboard the ship, they began to fly toward it.

Danny walked down another hall after climbing the stairs. He looked down the hall trying to find a hospital or something. He turned right to another hall. Just then, on the second door on the left, he saw a room with a Red Cross on it.
Danny yelled back to Tucker and Dash, "I found it!"
Tucker and Dash walked up to him as Danny went to the door and tried to open it. But the handle wouldn't budge. Danny punched the door in frustration, "Oh, man! Open, would you?" Danny groaned. He knew he couldn't phase through the door since Dash would see.
Improvising, Danny walked back the way he came and followed the hall he was at. He saw a door at the end of it. Danny opened the door. He was hit with a blast of wind as he saw that it led outside. Danny looked around and saw a window. The window was in the hospital room.

The wolves outside floated onboard where Danny, Tucker, and Dash had gone inside. They began to follow their scent down the first hall.
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Tucker and Dash watched as Danny looked outside towards the window. Danny turned to them and said, "You guys wait by the door! I'll make it into the hospital room and unlock it!"
Tucker asked, "But what if you fall?"
"I'll be fine! Just wait by the door!"
The two of them nodded, and then went back to the door.
Danny took a deep breath, and then said, "Going ghost." He transformed into Danny Phantom. Just as he did, he was hit with a big chill. The blankets that he had over himself were gone since he had transformed. He took a deep breath, and tried to fly to the window, but the powerful wind blew him off course and he fell onto a lower deck. Shivering madly, Danny was forced to change back into Danny Fenton.
Danny shrugged, "Guess I'm doing this the old-fashioned way." He saw two metal bars stretching across the ship. They were both above him and it was perfect to walk across.
He grabbed the bottom bar and climbed up on top of it. He grabbed the top bar and he began to walk across to the window. After a few seconds, he reached it.
Knowing it wouldn't take long, he phased through the window and inside. Sure enough, it was the hospital room. He ran over to the door and unlocked it. He then opened it and Tucker and Dash went inside.
The three of them looked around the room. Dash asked, "What are we looking for again?"
Danny sighed, "It's penicillin. Look around."
The three of them then started opening the cabinets and looking around. Dash sighed as he looked at the labels, "It's all in Russian. I…"
"I know," said Danny, "Just keep looking."
After a few more seconds, Tucker held up a bottle, "Hey, guys. I found it."
Danny turned to him, "What? How do you know?"
Tucker pointed to it, "Because it says 'Penicillin' on the bottom."

The wolves started floating slowly up the stairs. They wanted to be quiet so that the three teenagers who were here would not hear them.
They all looked hungry as they floated up to the top of the stairs.

Danny, Tucker, and Dash left the hospital room. Danny held the bottle as they started back the way they came. They headed down the hall when Tucker stopped at a door.
He said to them, "Wait a minute. This is the Mess Hall. We should find some food while we're here."
Danny replied, "Tucker, we don't have enough time."
Dash followed Tucker and said, "Fenton, the only thing I've eaten the last three days has been snow. I'm getting some food."
"But…"
Tucker added, "Besides him, none of us will survive that much longer without food. Including Sam."
Danny finally said, "Okay." He followed them into the Mess Hall.
Once inside, they looked around the room for food. For a minute, all they found was pots and pans and stuff to cook the food.
Tucker walked around the corner in the Hall. He yelled back, "Hey, Danny! Over here!"
"What?" asked Danny as he followed him.
Tucker pointed to a stack of shelves. It was a bunch of cans of soup, fruit, corn, and other canned foods. In the fridges, there were also frozen meats and bread.
"Bingo," said Tucker. Danny laughed as they started taking the food.

The three wolves had now reached the hall after the stairs where Danny, Tucker, and Dash had been on. They heard Danny and Tucker laughing and followed it.

Dash looked through a bunch of cupboards, looking for something. When he opened one, something inside suddenly started inflating, knocking him down. He looked up and saw it was an inflatable raft.
Danny yelled, "Dash, what happened?"
Tucker said, "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine."
They both walked over to him. They set the food on the table and Tucker asked him, "What happened?"
Dash shrugged, "I don't know. I just opened a cupboard, and that thing came out."
Outside, the wolves floated inside the Mess Hall, just out of the boys' view. They started growling quietly.
Tucker pointed to the raft, "We can use that thing."
"How?" Dash asked.
Danny replied, "We can carry the food in it." It was so cold in the room, Danny didn't even notice his ghost sense.
Just then, they heard a loud snarl and saw the wolves. The three of them gasped. Tucker shouted, "Aaah! Ghost wolves!"
The three of them ran over to the door that led to the back of the Mess Hall. The wolves flew toward them.
In the confusion to get through the door, Dash fell down. One of the wolves grabbed Dash by the leg and tried to pull him. Using his flashlight, Danny started hitting the wolf with it. He kept hitting while Tucker tried to pull Dash through.
Once the wolf let go, Danny yelled, "Pull him in, Tucker!" The wolf whimpered as Tucker pulled Dash inside. Danny slammed the door shut and locked it.
Ignoring the teenagers, the wolves flew on top of the table and started eating some of the food that was there.
Dash groaned, "Oh, my leg." Danny looked and saw that there was a deep gash in Dash's left leg.
Danny grimaced. Tucker took off one of his scarves and said, "Here. Use this."
Danny took the scarf and tied it around Dash's leg.

Back in Houston, Brittany and Patrick looked at each other.
Brittany turned to the computer and said, "It should be over New York by now. Satellite images are showing a temperature drop of ten degrees per second."
The eye of the storm was currently just over New York, but it would take a couple more minutes before it reached where Danny and the gang were at.

Danny opened the door in the back of the room and looked up at the sky. From a few miles away, he saw that the sky was starting to brighten just a little.
Danny said, "You guys, I think we're almost in the eye of it. He turned around, "We have to get back right away."
He explained to them, "Look, I'm going to go outside, and lure the wolves out of the room. When they leave, you lock the door."
Tucker said, "Good luck." Dash said, "Yeah, good luck…Danny."
Danny went outside. He climbed back across the metal bars which led back into the hospital room. He phased inside. Knowing it would be faster to get away from the wolves and that it wasn't as cold inside, he transformed into Danny Phantom.
He carefully floated out of the room. He took a deep breath, and then stomped onto the floor to lure them out. The wolves growled and flew towards Danny as he flew back down the hall. The wolves were fast and followed as Danny flew down the steps.
Tucker and Dash quickly went back into the main Mess Hall room. Dash had to limp.
Danny finally reached the first hallway. He flew to the doorway and stopped. He turned around to the wolves. As they approached him, Danny fired an ectoplasmic blast at them. They were hit and fell to the ground.
Dash said, "Tucker, hurry." He handed Tucker a broom and Tucker stuck it between the handles.
Danny flew back up to the door of the Mess Hall. He changed back into Danny Fenton and pounded on the door. After a few seconds, he shouted, "Tucker! Dash! Open the door!"
Tucker took the broom out and opened it. Danny ran inside. Dash asked, "Where are the wolves?"
"They're gone. We have to get out of here now." He pointed to Tucker, "Tucker, get the supplies."
Tucker got the remaining food as Danny got the inflatable raft.

Farther south, Fredrick was carrying Steve in a blanket tied to a rope while Jack walked behind him.
As they walked, they noticed something. They stopped as they saw the sky was brightening.
Fredrick's eyes bugged out slightly as he saw a United States flag blowing in the wind. Just then, the wind stopped. Far ahead, the sky was blue with clouds around the blue.
Knowing what was happening, the two brothers ran to the top of a Wendy's restaurant. They unbuckled their shoes so they weren't tied to each other for now.

Danny and Tucker pulled Dash on the raft through the snow along with the food. Dash's leg made it too uncomfortable to walk, let alone run. They were now running, as they knew the eye of the storm was getting closer and closer to them.
The sky ahead of them was now getting blue. This wasn't currently where the library was. They saw it was where the Empire State building was. They stopped as it started leaning and it started to freeze over. The windows were breaking or freezing and the building started to become a tower of ice.
Danny shouted, "Let's go!" They took off running again, now faster. Danny yelled, "Pull faster, Tuck!"

Jack pulled the top of an air vent off so they would have a way inside. Fredrick pulled Steve up and dropped him inside.
He crashed through the vent and inside.

"Come on!" shouted Danny as they kept running as fast as they could. They were almost back to the library, but the big freeze was now reaching the library as well.
Finally they made it back to the window they had gotten out of. They hurried inside. Danny handed the penicillin to Tucker, "Take the medicine to Sam!"
Tucker grabbed it and the food and ran to her. Danny pulled Dash to his feet and started pulling him down the hall as Dash leaned on Danny's shoulder.
Danny kept on running while keeping Dash on his feet. The hallway was starting to freeze all around the two of them as they hurried down the hall.

Approximately twenty seconds earlier…
Jack jumped down inside the vent with Steve. Fredrick picked up the remaining luggage they had and threw it down to Jack. Jack took it and Steve into the next room.
Fredrick started to drop down himself. Before dropping, he saw the flag. A couple seconds later, it suddenly froze in ice. Fredrick quickly dropped down into the vent.
He got up as the ice appeared in the vent and down into the room.
Just then, Jack closed the door!
Fredrick banged on the door and screamed, "Jack, I'm still in here! Open it!"
Jack quickly opened the door, "Sorry. My bad."
Fredrick hurried through the door.

"We're almost there!" shouted Danny as they approached the room with the fireplace. The ice was almost to them!
Dash muttered, "We're not gonna make it."
Danny groaned, and then had an idea. He could fly faster, so he could get them in in time. He knew that would mean revealing his secret, but there was no choice. He transformed into Danny Phantom. Dash gasped, "Fenton, you're that ghost kid?"
Danny nodded as he lifted Dash into the air and flew them down the hall. With faster speed, they flew down the hall.
Finally they flew into the room with the fireplace. Everyone else gasped when they saw him but Danny didn't care. He shouted, "Tucker! Quick, close the door!"
Tucker tore back across the room and slammed the doors shut.

At the same time, Fredrick slammed the door shut. He and Jack watched as ice began to form on the door.
They then realized that they were in the Wendy's kitchen, which had gas grills.

"Don't let the fire go out!" shouted Danny as everyone started throwing more and more books onto the fire. He knew that if the fire went out during the big freeze, they were finished.
Now as Danny Fenton again, Danny hurried over to Sam, who had taken the penicillin. He held her in his arms and carried her closer to the fire to keep her warm.
Ice was forming on the walls as the librarian asked, "What's happening?"
Ice was now starting to form on the door.

Using the gas grills, Fredrick was getting a fire going. He turned it up as high as it could go. Jack held Steve close by it and stood close by it himself. Jack also helped out by putting some wood on the fire.
The fire grew a little larger as the ice was getting closer…

Ice continued to form across the room as everyone looked afraid at what was happening.
Danny turned back to the fire and yelled, "More books! More books!"
Everyone started throwing more books onto the fire. Knowing this was urgent, they threw as many books onto the fire as possible to keep it going as it grew colder and colder…
BIG CLIFFHANGER! Oh, don't you just love how evil I am? lol Man, what a long chapter that was! My longest ever at 3988words! Will everyone in the library and in Wendy's survive the big freeze? Wait until Chapter 18!
