It was getting late at the Fenton household and Jazz and Maddie were sitting in the living both being very quiet when Jazz had an idea.

"Hey mom…" She began, getting her mother's attention. "I have a question, about ghosts."

Maddie looked happily at her daughter, a question about ghosts, maybe she was interested in the profession, " What is it dear?" She asked trying to keep the excitement out of her voice deciding not to seem too ecstatic.

"Is it possible for there to be a half human half ghost hybrid, of that sort?"

Maddie thought about this for a second then prepared her answer, "Now Jazz I don't think that's possible, how could something be alive and dead at the same time, it's highly illogical."

"Oh, but what if there was one?"

"Well then it would have to be studied, if there was a way to live and die at the same time then it would have to be figured out. Why, do you know of a creature like this?"

"No just curious." Jazz answered then she closed her book and went up the stairs, so now she knew telling herparents about Danny was out of the question, for now at least.

About an hour later, past his curfew, Danny came home. Only to be greeted by two unhappy parents. Jazz could hear them yell at him for being late again, and then his gentle footsteps resonated up the stairs.

Jazz couldn't help but feel sorry for him, maybe if they knew, no, it was more like maybe if they could understand. She wondered what happened to him tonight, she always wondered about her little brother and she always worried about him.

And with some unknown reason to her, she got up and went to his door. She wasn't sure exactly what she was doing, but she thought he could be hurt, or maybe just needed to talk to someone. She knocked gently on his door, and heard soft groan. It was his way of telling you that you could enter.

When Jazz walked in she felt her heart sink, he had blood seeping through his shirt and he looked so drained.

"Danny, my God, let me help." She insisted tenderly.

Danny, who was too weak to even protest let her tend to his wounds. He didn't even speak the whole time she dressed his gashed and cuts, every so often Jazz would see him wince, but he never cried out. Jazz really didn't like doing this at all, but she was his older sister and whether she enjoyed it or not she was responsible for him. She didn't mind though, she loved to help him whenever she could, she just didn't want to have to see him hurt.

"There we go Danny," She sighed tiredly after finishing up. Jazz was just about to leave when a soft grip held her back. Jazz turned to see two scared blue eyes looking back at her.

"Please don't go Jazz." He plead softly.

Jazz couldn't say no, if he wanted her to say then why shouldn't she? So she sat back down next to him. Something wasn't right she could sense it. Danny, like a young child, snuggled beside her, holding onto her and refusing to let go.

"Danny are you alright, what's wrong?" She asked.

She didn't receive an answer, although she really didn't expect one. But she could feel Danny begin to shiver. Whatever happened to him, it defiantly terrified him. Danny curled into a small ball and let Jazz hold him.

Jazz was sure he was crying, from the quivering of his body and his hardly audible fractured breathing. "Shh, shh, it'll be alright I'm here Danny, it'll be alright." Comforted Jazz. "You shouldn't feel alone, I'll protect you Danny." She continued while running her hand through his hair while keeping her other arm wrapped around him.

Slowly he began to gain control and fell asleep. For awhile Jazz sat quietly still running her hand through his hair. She could feel his soft and gentle heartbeat against her hand. Jazz was probably just as scared, if not more, as him. And he was the braver one. But Jazz knew better, as an older sister, not to let him see her fear when he was afraid. That was another of her many responsibilities, she had to fight for him when he couldn't she had to chase away the shadows.

The clock read 1:40, last she checked it, but by the time she opened her eyes it said 5:00. 'Must've fallen asleep.' She thought tiredly. She'd have to get ready for school in an hour and a half. Jazz decided that Danny would be fine if she left him alone now, beside she hadn't slept comfortably and decided she needed a little relaxation before school. Making sure his alarm was set, she gentle closed the door to her little brother's room. And she for the last time made sure he was ok.
