Disclaimer: Nothing is owned by me, except for Lenny, my sock monkey (who I finally named.)
Author's Notes: Just when I was ready to give up hope on you guys, you give me 6 reviews in one day. That's truly amazing I want to have these up quicker, so read and review, ...Anyway, I hope you enjoy this.
"Skulker." hisses Danny under his breath in frustration.
"Yes." Skulker pats his gun. "Now where are the 'reality-benders'"
Timmy arches an eyebrow. "What would he want with them?"
Dani rolls her eyes. "What every idiot wants. Power ."
"Is he nuts? Why would we give you anything" Jimmy brandishes a freeze ray at Skulker's arm.
"Oh no. Whatever shall I do" says Skulker in a monotonic sarcasm.
Danny takes this moment to scurry away and dash into a broom closet to transform. "Going Ghost!" He turns intangible and zips through the door. "You aren't taking these things"
"And who's going to stop me? You and your motley group of friends?"Skulker laughs heartily with this thought.
"Yes.."Danny replies.
"Wrong answer." Skulker shoots at him. Danny quickly dodges it, but unfortunately for him...
"Ow!" Sam grabs her arm and looks at the affected area on her shoulder. "It burned me." She runs off into the direction of the bathroom, wincing all the way.
Cindy watchers her go. "I'm going to help her with that. Those burns can get nasty."
"Cosmo, Wanda, what do I do?" Timmy whispers into the tie.
"Why don't you wish for that battle suit?" Cosmo asks loudly.
"Huh? What was that?" questions Skulker.
"The sound of my...gentle sobbing?"Timmy asks weakly.
"Good answer." Skulker looks at him. "You can't possibly be the caretakers of those powerful beings. You're too preadolescence."
"Hey, I'm very adolescentish." Timmy says somewhat unconvincingly.
"Cindy, I'm ok, I just have to keep the cold paper towel on it."Sam insists.
"No, it looks too bad. Sam, you should really go home and put an ice pack on the spot." Cindy carefully lifts up the towel.
"No, Don't!" Sam tries to take it back from her. "I.."
"Cool. It looks like a tattoo." Cindy points at the ghost shaped burn. "Or like Danny's symbol."
"I actually designed that for him." Sam places the towel back on.
"Really?" Cindy just looks at her and wets another towel. "Why don't you tell me all about it while we fix your makeup and arm."
Timmy sprints away. The fight is getting rough, with Danny and Danielle kicking Skulker repetitively everywhere, and Jimmy trying unsuccessfully to hit him with that freeze ray.
"I wish I had a battle suit." Timmy gets it, a white suit with a little blaster. Timmy runs out of the shadows and stands unwaveringly in front of him. "Die, you creature from another dimension."
He aims it and fires it at Skulker's face with a splat. "Toothpaste?" shrieks Timmy.
"Oh yeah, I thought I loaded the plasma cannon with plasma. The toothpaste tube was right next to it." Cosmo says sheepishly.
Timmy aims his view at Danny, hovering in who is laughing so hard that he's tearing. The movement makes him fall down into the punch bowl. "This would actually hurt if I wasn't laughing so hard."
Skulker is snickering. "Something tells me that he's not the brains of this outfit."
"Nope. I am." Jimmy seizes the opportunity to freeze him with his freeze ray. "Ha."
A frozen Skulker is right in front of the window. "Let me do the honors. Plug your ears."
Danny takes a deep breath and does the Ghostly wail. The sonics of it blasts Skulker a few miles away in a field.
"Whooh." Dani uncovers her ears. "When can I learn that?"
"As soon as you meet your evil future self." Danny shrugs. "Whenever that might end up being."
Sam and Cindy hobble out of the bathroom with Cindy as Sam's crutch. "So, we can safely assume that this Dance is finished, huh?" smiles Sam weakly. A bandage is covering the spot where she was burned.
Danny stares at it as if by staring at it it can go away. "So, are we going home?"pipes in Danielle.
"We might as well. This place is trashed." Danny waves at the wreckage from the former fight. "Sam, can I talk to you alone?
"Take that as our cue to leave." Dani shoos them out the door.
"Dani, can't we.." Timmy begins.
"Shh. We'll talk outside." Danielle gives them a look.
Once outside, Jimmy asks an important question. "So, are we really leaving?"
"No, we're going to spy on them" says Timmy dryly.
"That's possibly the most childish thing I've ever heard." says Dani. "But let's do it anyway."
"Timmy, can your reality-benders make us invisible?" queries Jimmy.
"Sure." Timmy quickly wishes for it and the trio are quickly invisible. "Let's just wait for them to come out."
As if on command, Sam and Danny walk out. "Sam, are you sure you're okay?"
The two walk over to the athletic fields. Sam looks at the window smashed into the gym. "I hope they clean up the glass soon."
"Yawn." mutters Timmy under his breath. "I wish they'd do something."
Danny leads Sam onto the first level of the bleachers, and they sit down. "Do you get the feeling that we're being watched?" asks Sam softly.
"No." Danny looks at her.
" I guess it was my imagination" Sam stares out at the soccer field which is getting dotted with small snowflakes.
"Hee." snickers Dani.
"So what did you wanna tell me?" Sam focuses on Danny.
"Uh, Sam." Danny touches the burn. "I don't think.. I think that we can't.."
Sam nods, urging him to continue.
"You got hurt today. I.. don't think we can be together." Danny turns his face down.
"It's only a burn." Sam shifts away from him so he can't see it.
"Gasp." Timmy sucks in a bit of air. That was unexpected.
"Still, a burn today... I don't want you to get hurt." Danny refuses to meet her patronizing gaze.
"Danny." Sam tries to get up to reassure him.
"No. I can't." Danny stays seated.
Sam gets up and walks a few steps away. "Danny, you can't do this. You can't live your life without friends." She walks right past where the boys and Danielle are hiding, tearing a little.
