Dear Uncle Vlad

Chapter One

"Yeah, see you at eight, Bye" Danny said over the phone. He hung up with a satisfied sigh. He had just finished talking with Sam, whom he had now been dating for the past month. Danny couldn't resist how unique in personality and style she was. Her Raven black hair, those beautiful lavender eyes……….Her disposition. Things were looking up for him. 'I can't believe how well it's been going for me lately,' Danny thought to himself. 'No ghosts have been bothering me for half a month…….Well, the Box ghost has but...He doesn't count.' He lay down on his bed and sighed again, as he closed his eyes and smiled. Then a disturbing thought came to him. 'It does worry me that I haven't seen any……..I wonder what's up…….' He thought long but nothing came to mind. 'I guess it's best not to worry about it for too long right now.' He turned onto his side and fell asleep though it was only five o' clock. The alarm clock started to count down the minutes with its bright red numbers. Danny blearily woke up and it was close to the time he was supposed to meet Sam at the Park. He didn't realize he fell asleep until he looked at the alarm clock. It read 7:48. Danny swore under his breath and hastily got out of bed to change his clothes. 'Perfect….I fell asleep….AGAIN!' When he was done getting ready, it was five till eight. He ran down half the stairs and jumped the rest. "Bye Mom, bye Dad, bye Jazz, see you at ten!" Danny rushed as he ran to the door.

"Wait, Danny….Where you going?" Maddie asked alarmed.

"I gotta date tonight, remember?" Danny said while he opened the door.

"Oh, OK….Have fun…" Maddy said a little confused. Danny closed the door behind him and ran down the front stairs. He looked at his watch and it read eight. "Darnit! Guess I'll just have to fly." He ran behind a building and changed into the phantom that we all know and love then quickly took off, unaware of the dark shadow standing on top of his house.

"You can run half breed…..But you can't hide," the shadow said. It smiled menacingly and silently took off after Danny. It made sure to keep a good distance away so Danny wouldn't spot him before the perfect opportunity.

Sam sat at the fountain where Danny and she were supposed to meet. She timidly looked at her watch every ten seconds, slightly tapping her foot on the ground. Sam was surprised to see Danny fly down in his ghost form and stood up, suddenly worried. He landed and changed back to human.

"What happened? Are you okay!" Sam questioned exasperated.

"I'm fine, I just dosed off and needed to come here in my ghost form to meet you on time," Danny explained. Sam showed her wrist and exposed the watch that said it was eight o' nine.

"You're a little late," Sam replied smiling. "Typical Danny."

"Well, at least you know I try," Danny said.

"Yeah, I do," Sam said with a slight giggle. "C'mon, I want to show you something." She took hold of Danny's hand and started leading him down a path.

Meanwhile, the shady figure hovered silently over the park. He followed the two from above with a careful eye, waiting for the precise moment.

Sam stopped at a large pond that was dotted with lilies with pink and white flowers. Surrounding the pool of velvety dark blue were little marble benches that had charming assortments of flowers next to them. A small circular opening in the trees made the sunset sky visible. The sky's light bathed the scene in a soft yellow. And to top it all off, fireflies were dancing near the benches. Danny gaped at the sight.

"You mean this has been here the whole time, and I didn't even notice it!" He said in awe.

"Oh, you've seen it, you just haven't seen it at the right time," Sam replied as she sat down on one of the marble benches. She looked down at the pond and observed a white flower on a lily. Danny looked at Sam smugly, not knowing exactly what he was doing as his mind was somewhere else. He didn't even know that Sam's attention was now on him, until she called his name.

"Danny?" she said with an inquisitive look.

"Huh?" Danny snapped back to reality.

"Aren't you going to come sit with me?" Sam asked.

"Oh, yeah," Danny said a little nervous. He sat down shaking like mad on the inside but doing his best not to show it on the outside. But his best wasn't good enough. Sam eyed him shaking and placed a hand on his. Danny looked at her lavender eyes while she looked into his ice blue ones. A silent pause started as their faces started to inch closer. Just before their lips touched, Skulker landed with a loud thump in front of the two. He pressed a large plasma gun against Sam's head and gave a triumphant laugh. Everything went so fast that Danny didn't know what to do.

"Follow my orders or the girl gets it!" Skulker yelled. Danny looked to Sam and she shook her head from side to side. Skulker saw this and charged the gun. "NOW!" Sam gave a small squeal.

"Alright!" Danny answered angrily. "What do you want me to do?"

"First, change into your ghost form," Skulker answered, a wild look was in his eye that wasn't there before. Danny didn't take any chances and changed to his ghost form.

"Okay, now what?" Danny asked seriously as he saw Sam starting to sweat under the pressure from the gun. Skulker divided into two, the one facing Danny said 'follow me' while the other kept pointing the gun at Sam's forehead. "Why are you still threatening Sam!" Danny questioned incredulously.

"Because I want to make sure that you don't go astray. If you do, He'll pull the trigger," Skulker replied with a wicked smile. Sam sighed uneasily, like she was going to pass out. Skulker grabbed Danny's arm and took off keeping a firm grip so that his prey wouldn't get away. Danny looked down at the opening of trees.

'Great, another date ruined by a ghost attack,' Danny thought solemnly.

Eh, not the greatest, but you'll live. I know that this has some D&S in it, but that's the only major part. Sorry to all the DS haters out there. I still wuv you . Anywho, yeah, replies would be nice.
