Hi, so I haven't been getting many reviews. PLEASE R&R!

Chapter 7

The Meeting

The next day, I woke up and ran straight to my closet. I picked up the box and took out the jumpsuit and wristband. I put on the jumpsuit (just my size) and slipped on the wristband. Once I did that I raced to Rachel. She opened the door and let me in, closing the door behind me.

"Okay, you're wearing that jumpsuit, why?" I glared at her.

"Just stall Mom and Dad while I'm gone", I demanded sharply.

"I don't think s-", she started, but I interrupted by handing her another 20 bucks. She smiled and said, "Sure thing sis, anything for you……" I knew that she and I spoke the same language. I smiled back and snuck out of the house. Once I was sure no one was around, I pushed the middle button on the wristband and it formed into the jet sled. I pulled the ski mask over my head and hopped on the sled. My first time was a little weird, so I decided to sit on it with my feet hanging over the edges on either side.

A computer appeared in front of me and the voice asked, "What will your destination be?"

"Cool", I thought and typed in Huntington High School. The computer screen disappeared as the jet sled carried me off. I started to grow more confident as I rode it across the sky to the school. It was a Saturday, so I didn't think anybody would be around. Finally, I reached the roof and saw Vlad standing calmly on the edge. I carefully landed my sled beside him, as he smiled at me, somewhat evilly, but I wasn't paying attention. Once the sled turned back into a wristband I faced Vlad. I peeled off my ski mask.

"Ah, Miss Beery, so nice to see you again. I'm sorry our last visit was cut short, but, Daniel can be so stubborn", Vlad explained smoothly. I couldn't contain my excitement, so I hugged Vlad happily.

"Oh Mr. Masters thank you! I love this suit, it's so cool, and the jet sled, and gadgets, they're really great", I thanked him. I pulled away and Vlad smiled.

"You're very welcome Ms. Beery, but please, call me Vlad. Mr. Masters sounds so formal, it's just us here", Vlad replied.

"Um, okay. But did you say you know Danny?"

"Oh yes, his father and I are best friends. Daniel though, he doesn't seem to enjoy my company, I don't see at all why though", Vlad told me.

"Yeah, he kinda told me you were evil, but I think he was exaggerating a little", I told him uneasily, wondering why Danny thought this guy was out to get him. For one moment I thought I saw Vlad's eyes flicker a bright red, but I was probably imagining things. "But, last night at the dance, he called you Plasmius. What was that about?" Vlad suddenly looked concerned and put a hand on my shoulder.

"Oh, that incident still hasn't left him? Oh, my dear, a few years ago he and his family attended a college reunion at my home in Wisconsin, and well, this might sound odd, but, there was a-a ghost that took over his father's body, and it did much damage. Then the brave young lad confronted the ghost and it posed as me in a ghost form, fed the boy a pack full of lies, and now Daniel is certain I'm responsible, the poor boy", Vlad explained sadly. I didn't know he was lying, so I thought I finally understood Danny's theory.

"That's terrible, now I know why Danny was being so paranoid", I said, almost to myself. After a moment Vlad faced me.

"Now my dear, let's see about your little boyfriend. Morgan was it?" I suddenly remembered and nodded sadly. Vlad noticed my sorrow and smiled comfortingly, cupping his hand under my chin. "Don't worry Heather, I know you won't let those ghosts get away with this. And I will assist you in anyway possible." I smiled at his kind gestures.

"Thanks Vlad, I just wanna kick those ghosts to Kalamazoo for this, if I could find them….."

"But you can dear. Push that button on your wristband and it will instantly lead you to the targets." I pushed a button and a holographic map of the area, and a glowing green dot was showing up on the middle of it. "That's the target you're looking for", Vlad told me, pointing to the dot.

"How does it know what I'm looking for", I asked disbelievingly.

"It reads your thoughts and picks up any description of the last ghost you heard of, or saw. It's quite advanced, isn't it?" I smiled and nodded as I saw three dots, which meant three ghosts. I glanced at it nervously. How was I going to take down three of them? Vlad sensed my timidity and patted my hand. "Don't worry Heather, you can practice for a day or two and then, er…kick them to Kalamazoo, as you stated", Vlad told me. I turned off the hologram and nodded.

"Okay, I'll train for about a day or two. But where am I gonna go? It's not like my parents wouldn't notice me shooting targets with a ghost ray in my room." Vlad smiled.

"Oh, I'll take care of that, just tell them you're going to a friend's house, and meet me here, same time, and I'll help you", Vlad told me reassuringly. I smiled and felt relieved, albeit a little worried.

"Okay, thanks Vlad. Well, I've gotta get home pretty soon, so I gotta go."

"Of course my dear, but please, let's keep this little meeting between us, hm?" Don't have to tell me twice! I nodded and activated my jet sled, putting my mask on. "I'll see you tomorrow for training dear, and remember, it's our little secret", Vlad told me sweetly. I smiled and gave him a thumbs up, riding off on my sled. When I had left, Vlad smiled evilly and changed into the vampire ghost from earlier. He pulled out a walkie talkie and said, "Miss Beery is almost ready, I believe she could be more useful to our plan than we know…." In his office, Syndrome had been watching the scene on the monitor the whole time.

"Excellent, spend a couple of days with her and I'll set the trap….", he responded, as the screen changed to Morgan, still tied up and blindfolded.
