DISCLAIMER: Butch is starting to look a little sweaty!

SUMMARY: When Paulina is m u r d e red, everyone thinks its Sam. But Sam doesn't even know what happened in the time period she was m u r d e red. She is sent to jail, and only then does Danny realize what's that feeling in his stomach.

Chapter 2

"The Big House"

"WHAT?" yelled Sam. She fell out of her chair. How could this be? She didn't m u r d e r her! "But I didn't m u r d e r her!"

"I'm sorry, but there is no excuse for manslaughter!" yelled Lancer firmly. Two cops walked in and grabbed Sam by the arms and dragged her, leaving her kicking and screaming and flailing all she could as she was dragged out of the office and into the barred back of a police truck.

Danny had been walking down the same hall to go to the bathroom. He stopped dead in his tracks. It was Sam. Yelling. Worriedly.

"SAM?" he bellowed.

"DANNY, HELP ME! I'M GOING TO JAIL!" she screamed in return. Danny couldn't move. I'm going to jail…those words seriously shook him. He turned on his heels and ran back, tears threatening to come out. Why Sam? How Sam?

He ran back into the classroom, ice blue eyes glazed over. He glanced at Tucker and, not caring that class was still in session, yelled.

"Tucker, something happened with Sam!" he bellowed. All the kids in the class dropped at least half their supplies and the teacher's chalk made a bone-shivering squeak as it skid across the surface.

"What?" he replied. He hastily dropped all his things in his backpack and came to his level.

"Come with me," said Danny, desperately trying to get control of his voice. Once out of the room, they ran into the bathroom. Danny changed into a ghost, his black hair white, his ice blue eyes neon green, his usual attire now a black and white jumpsuit, and told Tucker, "The truck's probably halfway there by now."

Grabbing Tuck by the waist, he phased through the ceiling and flew at top speed towards the truck.

"What do you mean?" he asked, looking up to see no form since they were invisible.

"I mean Sam is going to jail. I don't know why, but she is." His voice started shaking. He shut his eyes, getting rid of excess water. Danny had a hunch. It couldn't be Sam. It just couldn't. But was it? He didn't know. But he wouldn't dare doubt his best friend! No way! But he couldn't help but wonder: was it really her?

"No…"

"Y-Yep."

"Hey, is that the truck?" asked Tucker as he pointed to a white truck with bars in the back. A young woman was in it, grasping the bars and blubbering.

"Yeah, it is!" Danny flew lower until level with the bars. He increased his speed just until he was face to face with the young lady. She had silky black hair and lavender eyes. Most definitely Sam.

"Sam, are you okay?" asked Danny gently. Sam shook her head no and tears went everywhere.

"Tuck get on my back," Danny murmured to him. He quickly got on his back, leaving Danny's hands free.

"Sam, we'll come every day. We'll do whatever it takes to get you out. Don't forget, nothing is right here without you," he said softly. He placed his gloved hand on Sam's cheek, now covered in mascara tracks, ever so slightly and stroked it gently. His hand went up to her wet eyes and one of his fingers created a barrier for a tear. "Don't forget us. Don't go insane." Sam nodded, but very slightly.

Her eyes opened just a bit and saw Danny and Tucker flying after her. She let go of one of the bars she was gripping and outstretched her arm as best she could. Danny grasped it and held it as if it were the most important thing in the world. Everything could've melted away, and he could have continued flying for ages with her in hand. As long as everything was gone and okay.

But the truck sped up and the bond was broken. Everything came back, the zooming houses, the black roads, the bars on the truck…

"Danny!" she yelled hopelessly, eyes shut.

"SAM!" he yelled, but he couldn't keep up. He just fell behind as the truck zoomed off. Sam shut her eyes and wanted the world to leave.

Leave, world, leave! Leave me alone to rot and die! Nothing could be worse than this! She didn't know what happened in that time period, but that didn't necessarily mean she had done it! She fell back, sinking into the darkness. There was a reason for everything, and she might as well just stay put until she finds it.

Danny fell behind and just decided to stop, no matter how painful it would be. There was no way he could catch up now. He stopped on a sidewalk and let Tucker off. He changed back and stared in awe with blue eyes at the truck rushing away.

"I'm not going to let her go without a fight," he muttered. Tucker gripped his arm and started stuttering.

"Sh-She will be fine there, right?" he asked.

Danny shook him off, took a quick glance at the slightly collapsed dark-skinned teenage techno geek and said very quietly with a tear running down his face. "I hope so, Tuck. I hope so."

Chapter 2

Chapter 3: look below at the circumstances

Hey there! I have already received a few reviews for said stories that needed to be reviewed. When I said reviewed, I meant read through thoroughly and give me your take on it, what I could have done better, what I should do in the future, and what you thought was good. So, here are reviews and chapter review stats will be below that.

Keep in mind that even if I do get the right amount of reviews, it'll be a little while (or longer, or shorter) until I get the next chapter up due to the fact that the next time I'll be around is near September and I've got to buy school supplies, get together with friends that I promised to see, and start doing my homework (which includes extra credit on Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, cause I'm like the only one in my school who's read it!).

Josh111888: thanks so much for reviewing and being faithful! (and your stories are pretty damn good!) That's a good idea, I'll be sure to add it in future chapters!

California Girl Sammy Phantom: that's one hell of a name! Thanks for reviewing, and as you see, I did update today!

Twilight Princess: go have some food. As a bonus, I give you tidbits of Sam's and Tucker's lunches. VERRYYYY nutritious! Thanks for reviewing! I really appreciate it!

Review Stats:

Ramblings of a Hurt Thirteen Year Old: 1/10 (come on!)

Green Needle Hidden: 1/5

M u r d e rer: 3/2! YAY!

Now. Twilight Princess, I didn't count your review on Green Needle Hidden because you didn't really tell me what you liked/disliked, wanted me to change/keep about the story when it will be updated (yeah it'll be updated). Josh111888, thanks for that review. I can tell it didn't get your interest too much, so I'll work on that. I need 9 more reviews on Ramblings of a Hurt Thirteen Year Old (I'm not dim, I check my hits. I've gotten 113 on Caught White Handed but only 3 on Green Needle Hidden!) and 4 more on Green Needle Hidden. Until then, say bye-bye to M u r d e rer!
