Runaway

Before: Thinking quickly he decided he would spy once again on the two ghosts to see what they were up to. So he quickly changed his route and stepped outside, to only find…

… his brother and that kid, Danny Fenton?! What? Where were the ghosts? Jet was extremely confused and hid behind a bush to watch Danny and his brother. They were getting into the limousine. Was Vlad leaving already? But then why was Danny going with him? And why was Danny carrying that backpack he had seen the ghost with earlier? So many questions… then the limousine sped away. Jet could only stare; a thought had just crossed his mind. Could Danny Fenton be that ghost who was in that cage? And that other one… no, could it be… his brother? Jet thought about this as he went inside to tell what he had seen within the past couple hours.

Jazz had just finished explaining the plan. Tucker was to distract Jack, Maddie, Vlad, and Jet with… whatever he could think of, while Jazz grabbed the keys from Jack's pocket. She would hand them to Sam who would go downstairs and open the cage door. The plan was nearly foolproof. Though it was simple it should work. But then… "WHAT?!?!" Jack and Maddie shouted. Jazz looked at Sam and Tucker and noticed they were all thinking the same thing. They went bounding downstairs faster than they ever had before.
Jack and Maddie had just heard the news that the ghosts had escaped and that their son had gotten into the limousine with Vlad. They were freaking out, and that was an understatement.

"WHAT?!?!" they had screamed at him. Jet had explained almost everything to them, except for his thoughts on Danny and Vlad being the ghosts in the cage. It was then that Jazz, Tucker, and Sam made it to the bottom of the stairs, completely out of breath. Together they said, "Danny's a half ghost."

In the back of the black stretch limousine, Danny Fenton was looking out the tinted window. Vlad was sitting right next to him, and Danny still wasn't really comfortable around him, after all, he had tried to kill Danny's father. So Danny just stared out the window.

"So Daniel, how is school going?" asked Vlad to try to start a conversation. "Oh, I forgot to tell you, but you will be going to Packerino High School. It is a private school that focuses mostly on the Green Bay Packers and a good education." Danny rolled his eyes at the window. "You should be able to make some new friends easily."

"Uh-huh," said Danny, thinking of Tucker and Sam, and how they had been friends since forever, and how they would be his only friends.

Vlad peered over at Danny. "Look at me," he said. Danny reluctantly took his eyes off the view outside and looked into Vlad's sapphire eyes. Vlad looked at Danny with concern and asked, "What's wrong?" Danny sighed and said, "Nothing, just forget it." Vlad turned away but kept thinking about Daniel. He seemed so sad… Vlad seriously hoped he would feel better. After all, he was to be living with him for awhile. Then something hit him. Maybe Daniel didn't want to truly come with him to Wisconsin. He said he did, but he hadn't sounded like he meant it. If this was true… then Daniel would be miserable for his whole stay with him. It would be hard to cheer him up… Vlad's head swam with these thoughts as they passed through the desolate plains of Iowa, cows and all.

Jack and Maddie gasped and nearly fainted. Actually, Jack did faint. Jet smirked; his suspicions were confirmed. Jet snuck away as Jazz and Maddie tried to revive Jack. He knew that his brother was the other ghost, he had to be! But, how could he? It was then Jet felt himself let go of the railing that led down the stairs to the basement. But he didn't remember letting go of it. Jet looked at his hand, and was completely freaked out when he didn't see it.

"What the hell?!" he remarked loudly, getting more scared every minute. Then he could see his hand again. Jet sighed loudly, wondering what had just happened. What if… what if… he couldn't even think it; it was too absurd. But… he shook the thought away and proceeded to the lab, to gather evidence on the ghosts.

Vlad sat wondering in the limousine, basically about the object he had 'borrowed' from Jack's lab. It was small enough to fit into the palm of his hand; and its smallness came in handy for Vlad. He stared at it. It was a spherical item, a deep shade of crimson, and it contained many great abilities. Jack had created it to make any ghost lose all of their powers; if he had ever caught up with one. It would literally take all of the ghost's energy and strength, as well as their powers, and make them weak and defenseless. This sphere, which Jack had named the Fenton Ghost Orb, was perfect for keeping Daniel in check if he ever did not cooperate. Also, if he ever tried to escape, this little object would prevent him from doing so. Vlad chuckled softly. He had Daniel right where he wanted him…

What do you think? Please R&R!
