"I have a new idea." Walker said barging into the room where all of Danny's enemies sat. He stood at the head of the staircase, hat covering his eyes, walking cane behind his back. Everyone looked, waiting for him to tell them. He chuckled to himself then began down the stairs, "Samantha is pregnant right?" He said, already knowing the answer of course. Almost all of his minions nodded, the others were catching on to his plan. "She's due to have it in December. As soon as that baby's born, we shall take it. Once we have it in our posession, Daniel will come to us. Then we'll have him." He said, satisfied.

"That sounds pretty simple." Desiree said putting her hands on her hips. "Yah what's the deal?" Johnny 13 said from the back of the room. Walker laughed, "I didn't say that we would kill Daniel as soon as he got here." He said. Spectra crossed her arms, "Uh. Okay. Then what are you going to do to them?" She said raising an eyebrow. He shook his head, starting to get irritated, "You'll see. Within the next six months...just forget it. You'll see." He turned and walked back up the stairs into his office.

Everyone looked at each other confused.

"Oh! Danny! You've gotten so big! Look how tall he is Earl!" Danny's grandmother, Muriel said, slightly shaking him by the shoulders. Danny stood there, wishing he could disappear. It was Thanksgiving, and he was stuck with all of his relatives under one roof. Jazz was bringing Mark to the dinner, to make it official. His grandparents looked at him smiling. "Mom, Dad, would you like something to drink?" Maddie said, trying to save Danny. They nodded and headed into the kitchen followed by Maddie who smiled at Danny on the way in. He smiled back hesitantly.

His cousin, Zachary, who was only a year younger then him came over and stood next to him. "They embarrasing you to?" He asked. Danny nodded, "Yah but me and my friends are meeting up at the park later. Want to come?" He said. Zach nodded right away, "I ain't staying in this hell hole." Danny laughed, "Good idea. Let's go up to my room." He said leading his cousin up the stairs.

"So Danny," Zach started when they got up into the quiet hallway, "Is it true?" He said. Danny opened the door, "Is what true?" He said, playing dumb. He sat on his bed next to his window. Zach shut the door behind him and sat on his floor, "That your girlfriend's pregnant?" He said putting his hands in his pocket. Danny sighed, "Yah it's true. She's going to have it next month." Danny said fingering a loose thread on his sweatshirt. "It?" Zach started, "You don't know if it's a boy or a girl?"

"No. Not yet. We're waiting for the baby to be born." He looked over to his cousin. Zach sat on Danny's bed, "What about the powers? That can't be true. Ghosts aren't real!" He said laughing a little. Danny laughed nervously, "Um actually.." He started, "ghosts are real." Zach started at him blankly, "Your kidding right?" Danny sighed and shut his eyes, "You don't go telling anyone I showed you this. I know they know about my powers but I'm not putting on a show for them." He said then got up.

"What are you going to go in the closet and come out in some Superman..." Before Zach could finish, a flash came from Danny, who had changed into Danny Phantom, floated before him. Zach sat there in awe, staring at Danny. Danny changed back, "You tell no one?" He questioned. Zach nodded, still in shock. "I fight ghosts, that's why I was in the hospital all summer." He said sitting back on the bed.

"Wow...ghosts are real." Zach said under his breath in amazement.

"Ready to meet the family?" Brittany said to Tucker. Tucker shook his head no, "You're dad's nice right?" He said nervously. Brittany laughed, "Yah! I wouldn't bring you if I knew he was going to squash you!" She said kissing him on the lips. He sighed, "Okay." Brittany smiled and led him into the house, where just Brittany's parents and younger sisters sat.

"Mom, Dad, this is Tucker Foley. The boy I've been dating for the past nine months." Brittany said, excited. Mr. Kearens stood up and held out his hand. Tucker took it and shook it. He was soon aquainted to the rest of the family and soon enough, ate dinner. The couple sat on the couch, after eating. "I'm stuffed." Tucker said putting his hand on his stomach. Brittany laughed resting her head on his shoulder, "Want to go check up on Sam?" She said. Tucker nodded, "Okay. I hope her family's not giving her too much crap. I know Danny's probably holding himself up in his room but Sam can't. Let's go."

'Just go away...' Sam thought as her aunt and uncle stared at her. She pretended not to notice but she couldn't take it anymore. She got up and went up the stairs into her room. She sat on her bed, knowing that one of her parents was going to come up at any second.

Mrs. Manson hurried over to the door to find Tucker and Brittany waiting outside. "Oh hello," She started, "Sam's up in her room." She said stepping away so they could get in. The two nodded and went up to her door. "Sam?" Brittany said, knocking on her door. "Go away." Sam's voice came from inside. "Sammy!" Tucker said gayily from the door. Brittany laughed. "Tucker!" Sam yelled playingly, "Come in guys."

Danny lay on the couch with Zach watching Fuse after dinner. The door opened to Jazz and Mark, who looked nervous. "Hey guys." Danny said monotone, zoned into the TV. "Hey squirt." Mark said sitting down next to him. Jazz, who looked happy, went into the kitchen to the family. "Are they nice?" Mark asked Danny. Danny shrugged, "Well they should be good to you...you weren't raised in this family so she has no reason to hate you." He said, smirking. Mark laughed while it seemed the whole Fenton family came out into the living room.

"Everyone, this is Mark, my boyfriend." Jazz said, taking a seat on Mark's lap. Mark smiled and waved. Everyone seemed to swamp over the couple, greeting Mark. Danny laughed, and his cell phone rang.

"Hello?" He said.

"Hey Danny what's up?" Sam's voice came from the other line.

"Nothing much. How've you been doing?"

"Good. Besides the family. Tuck and Britt are over. Wanna come?"

"Yah..." He looked over at Zach, "You remember Zach right?"

"Yah why? He wants to come?"

"I think he'd rather go than stay here."

She laughed, "Okay, see you in a few."
