Ahh, I can't believe I got the most reviews ever on this story, and that's just for the first three chapters. It really helps me to continue to write, so thanks, and I hope I don't let you down in return. So to my reviewers, I have a new thing. After I'm done with every story, at the end, I'm going to add a Chapter Summary page, and a reviewer reward. Each reviewer will receive a certain type of flower because you guys are so awesome. It

might be lame to some people, but I hope you'll check anyway. This also gives me a chance to announce all of my reviewers in full. Recent review replies are down at the end of the chapter by the way. Also, here's the sneak peek.

Worthy: (Coming Soon)

Chapter Three: This Love

Sam returns Danny's powers without his knowledge of her new powers. That same night, she tests them out on her best friend, and realizes, there's more in stake for "their" future than just friendship.

Adjustment:

Chapter Six: No One To Trust

Danny discovers who the real kidnappers are when his memories come back to him in a dream. And a hidden betrayal is only the beginning of a long battle.

WE HAD SNOW! Anybody else? Sorry, I'm excited. Now onto the story. A couple of quick notes; this story is Jazz's point of view only, not even Danny. And Atheme is pronounced (A-thim-may, as in the two sided dagger) to those of you who asked. This chapter's also rather short, but I'm just leading into chapter five which is really huge so, I guess that qualifies as making up for this one's shortness. So here goes Chapter Four, I hope you enjoy!

Previously in Ghost Gal: Danny returns home, but not in happy spirits. After lying to his family, he is grounded. That same night, he has a creepy dream involving Atheme, and nearly sleepwalks into the ghost zone, and is again rescued by his sister just in time. And Jazz begins to plan her life changing idea.

Chapter Four

Electric

Jazz sat at the computer, searching for traces of files that could possibly be hiding in the hard drive. She'd been searching for nearly an hour with no luck. Her parents were out grocery shopping, her brother was sleeping upstairs.

Until now……she heard the door open and heard quiet chatter coming from her folks. They entered the living room and stopped talking as soon as they caught sight of her sitting there.

"Hey, do you guys need help?" she asked.

"Need help with what?" Her father's eyes were oddly narrowed.

"Bringing the groceries in? Is something wrong?" she asked. She didn't like the way her father was staring at her. It brought odd cold chills to her.

"No, of course you can help," Jack said, laughing shortly.

Maddie stared behind Jazz at the computer screen. "Working on homework dear?" she asked.

"No," she replied. It was time to begin part one of her plan. She put on a bored, disinterested voice. "But I did find this." She pulled out a blue colored paper from the printer and handed it to her mother, who was closest.

Maddie grabbed onto it, and read it. "Centennial Ghost Hunters Meeting. Friday, January 2, 2005 in Duslin, California. Ghost hunter specialists are encouraged to bring ghost related technology and hunting tools. Tickets on sale now at the Prasm Theatre. This meeting lasts from eleven a.m. to four p.m. All ages are admitted."

"A ghost hunters meeting?" Jack asked, coming up behind Maddie with a bag.

"Yes. Isn't this great Jack? We can bring all of our equipment, and spend the day there, and be able to drop off Danny and his friends to the concert that night," Maddie said excitedly.

"That meeting's tomorrow," Jack pointed out.

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"Unless Danny has incredible healing powers, he won't be going anywhere," he said solemnly.

Jazz slapped her forehead. Well, she was incredibly stupid. How could she have forgotten that her brother was injured? He couldn't go with them….. But tomorrow was the best she could squeeze in. She had to find Atheme as soon as possible. She couldn't wait any longer.

Her parents stared at her.

"I could stay here with Danny. I didn't really want to go anyway," Jazz suggested. Maybe he would sleep the whole time and she could do it without interruption.

"And you'll be able to handle him alright?" Maddie asked. Jack was narrowing his eyes at her again; what was his deal?

"Mom, I'm sixteen. Of course I can," she said huffily. She ignored her father's stare.

"Then if you truly don't mind, we'll leave you in charge. I think this is a great idea," her mother exclaimed. "Where did you find this anyway?"

"It just popped up," Jazz lied. She turned around, and pretended to cough. If her parents could read her mind, it would be telling them some weird things. She had made up the whole meeting and had printed it out. It would distract her parents for the time being tomorrow. The most they'd waste while she was working was gas.

"Well, thank you," Jack said.

He and Maddie went back outside to get the remaining bags, leaving Jazz alone, sitting in the living room at the computer.

She sighed. Part one was done. Part two; steal her parents' portal procedure. But how in the heck was she supposed to do that?

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

"Hey Mom?"

Jazz entered her parents' bedroom, making sure her father wasn't in sight. He was creeping her out lately, and she couldn't tolerate him breathing down her neck right now.

"Yes Jasmine?" Maddie asked. She was already packing some essential things needed for tomorrow; her bag was packed with an extra blue/black jumpsuit, and some other clothes.

"I was wondering. I'm doing a research project right now in Chem, and we're studying electrical reactions, and I was wondering if I could borrow the research files you used for the Fenton Portal. I'd return to you of course, I just need them for tomorrow," she tried.

Maddie bit her lip, thinking.

"I'll get them back in perfect condition?" she asked reluctantly, grimacing.

"Yes, oh yes," Jazz said. Is she giving in? Please tell me she's giving in…..

Her mother sighed. "I guess. But I want them back in perfect, I mean perfect condition," her mother warned.

Jazz jumped up excitedly and hugged her mom. "Thanks mom. Where are they?" she asked, barely breathing.

"Downstairs in the third file cabinet drawer." Maddie smiled and kissed the top of her daughter's head. "Go get them, and then get some sleep. If you're going to watch Danny tomorrow, I want you to be up early."

"Yeah, yes ma'am," Jazz replied, not listening. She waved to her mother and rushed out of the room. Part two was easier than she thought it would be. But could she pull through with the rest?

Nerve wracked, she was starting to have second thoughts. She mentally slapped herself to snap herself out of it.

Stop being so selfish Jazz.

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

"Jazz?"

The red haired girl nearly jumped out of the chair. She forced her eyes open, searching for the voice.

"Danny? What are you doing up?"

Danny's blue eyes stared. "I was trying to wake you up. Where the heck is everyone?" he asked. He stared down at her desk, where the Portal's notes were laid out.

Jazz had been studying nearly all night. She caught sight of her brother's notice, and shoved the papers back into the manila envelope.

He raised an eyebrow, but ignored it. "So are you going to explain why no one but us is in the house?"

"I'm sorry Danny. I was supposed to be up earlier. Mom and dad went to a ghost hunters meet," she replied sleepily. "How did you get down here?"

"It's called walking," he said. He pulled his crutch over and leaned on it.

"Don't be a smart ass," Jazz demanded. She stood up. "Want some breakfast?"

"I already had some. You don't realize how late it is huh?" he asked. She looked at her watch. It read noon.

"Oh my gosh!" Jazz exclaimed. "I'll never have time to do it now."

"Do what?"

"Never mind."

"Okay……Sam and Tucker are coming over later, I think they said around three," he said.

"Did you take your medicine?" Jazz asked.

"Yeah, yeah," he replied annoyed. "Listen, I'm going to take a quick nap before they come. And then I'm tired of sleeping, so after that I'm done."

"Okay. I'm sorry you don't get to go to your concert."

Danny smacked his forehead. He had totally forgotten. Darn it. He sighed.

"Yeah, me too," he said miserably. He left the room, waving sadly to Jazz.

Jazz jumped up, watching him disappear into the next room. It'd have to be now or never. She grabbed the portal files and rushed down to the lab.

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

Finding the switch, she turned off the power in the lab, pulling down a huge lever right next to the portal. The lights went off, as well as the faint hums coming from the heater and refrigerator upstairs.

Jazz clicked on the flashlight. She hoped the sudden silence wouldn't wake her sleeping brother.

He'd been through so much….But that was what she was here for. Another ghost fighter with him would help him a lot. No more exhaustion, no more injuries.

But what if she couldn't do it?" What if she couldn't turn herself into a halfa? What if it didn't work and she remained normal? What if she was wrong?

She shook her head. She was being stupid. She was only thinking of herself. It was a flaw she'd have to get past if she truly wanted to help Danny.

She walked over to her parents' desk and checker her mother's calculations once more.

Taking deep breaths didn't seem to calm her trembling body, thumping heart, and wracking nerves. She looked over at the portal and wasn't surprised to feel a tear run down her cheek.

Her thoughts couldn't make up their minds. She didn't want to do this, but she did want to; her mind was having a debate inside and whatever won would decide her fate.

Danny hadn't experienced going through this. It had been an accident. He hadn't meant or planned to become a halfa.

Jazz sobbed softly, and uncontrollably. She picked up the cord extension and plugged it in.

She wiped her tears.

She walked into the portal, trembling violently. Her brain jumbled with thoughts, and she talked to herself absentmindedly.

"Come on Jasmine, you can do this. Your brother needs you. Just a few brief moments of pain….."

Jazz pushed the green button inside the portal labeled "on."

A last tear escaped as she laid her hand on the power lever. She looked up, towards Danny's room where he was sleeping……

"This is for you Danny," she whispered.

She pulled the lever and flashes of electricity danced around her.

Coming soon is chapter five, don't be surprised if you see it updated extra quick. Like I said, I really love this chapter and the ones following.

Hasta luega!
