DarkDragonQueen: Okay we're coming to a close here. Around two more chapters. It was actually a longer story that I first originally thought. I didn't want it as long as the Introduction and by now I working on its sequel. Thank God it's summer or I'd never do it.

I am sorry to say that this isn't getting as much feedback as the first story and that if I get no more reviews, I will be forced to remove this story off the sight and in doing so will not be able to proceed with the series. If you want this to stay I need at least five reviews so that I know someone is reading.

Yeah, you read this next part from me all the time. Grammar is not my best subject. I can apply it well to writing but I'm not perfect people. If you see a few mistakes here and there dismiss them. Luckily my spelling and use of words makes up for that.

So without any further interruptions, here is the third chapter of The Black Phoenix: Humanity.

Back in the Ghost Zone

"So... Who wants to tell her?" Tucker asked and all eyes went to Danny.

Danny had just told all the information he had gotten from Celosia to the rest of the group. The reactions were as expected and now the group was contemplating a plan to get the crystal back. Problem was they couldn't think of one and had now just decided to go into the ghost zone and come up with a plan as they went. First things first though... getting Sam to come without her knowing what the crystal was for.

"Why are you all looking at me?" Danny asked although he already knew.

"Well, you're less likely to be killed if you go so we'll stay down here and root for you." Tucker got up and pushed Danny out of the Phoenix Nest locking the door.

"You do know a lock can't keep me out right?" Danny asked dryly but none the less went upstairs and to Sam's room. The door was closed and Danny frowned. Her parents weren't home so she had nothing to hide, unless she was getting dressed. He knocked on the door.

"Sam," he called knocking on the door. "You in there?"

Danny heard a thud and then Sam rushing around the room and decided to open the door any thrpwing a girl's privacy to hell. He phased through the door and saw Sam come from her closet and sit on her bed and give him an innocent look that looked weird considering her recent behavior.

"Hey Danny." she greeted. "I didn't know you were here."

Danny's eyes narrowed and he glared at Sam cutting to the point. "What are you hiding?"

"Nothing Danny." Sam sighed turning on her bed and looking at the black comforters.

"What did you do? I know you did something and are trying to hide it, You know I'm going to find it, so you might as well show me." Danny said glaring at the closet. "I'll search your room too."

"You wouldn't." Sam glared back.

"Want to bet?" Danny glared and then changed into his ghost form and phased into Sam's closet.

"Danny, get out of there." Sam ran to her closet door.

"If you've got nothing to hide, what's the big deal?" Danny called from the closet as Sam swung it open to find Danny holding a sack she had hidden in her closet. "Hm, nice set of earrings here and they'd look nice on you too... if you paid for them."

Sam groaned. "Damn you Danny." she crossed her arms and sat back now on her bed with a fairly annoyed look on her face.

Danny sighed. She was expecting him to lecture her which was far from what he was going to do deciding that he could use this too his advantage. He sat the bag down.

"All this stuff looks nice, but you know what looks better?" he asked

"What?" Sam raised an eyebrow with a hint of curiosity in her voice.

"Your black crystal." Danny replied simply.

"You mean the one I used to wear around my neck? If memory serves me right Sabrina stole it. It's gone and I could care less."

"But she beat you." Danny said.

"And? So? I beat her bad at the museum." Sam shrugged taking the sack from Danny.

"Still I was just thinking... she beat you once and took the crystal so that means she could beat you again." Danny said. According to Allison she had no humanity so her ego had to be bigger than Vlad's castle.

Sam narrowed her eyes. "Are you implying I'm weaker than her?" she snapped.

"Of course not." Danny defended at the desired response. "I was just saying Sabrina's going to hold it against you for a long time."

Sam frowned as she tossed this around in her head. Danny was right. That was what Sabrina was provoking her with last time and it could lead to her defeat again much to her dismay.

"How do I stop that from happening?" she asked.

Danny was grinning from ear to ear inside. Maybe the fact that he lived with Jazz wasn't so bad. He would have to remind himself to thank her later.

"We got to the ghost zone, find Sabrina, you defeat, take the crystal back and that'll shut her up for good." Danny suggested.

"When are we going?" Sam asked as if she had already decided for him that they were going whether he liked it or not.

"We could leave right now... After you take all that stuff back of course." he glared as Sam sighed.

"Fine." Sam glared. "I'll meet you in the basement in front of the Fenton Portal." She jumped out the window as she transformed and Danny phased back downstairs feeling too lazy to walk down the stairs.

"I see you're still in one piece." Silver Moon remarked in amusement.

"What did you tell her? That the crystal was her humanity?" Tucker asked.

"Of course not. She would have said something about not wanting it back if I said that. I used a bit of reverse psychology." Danny replied.

You know reverse psychology?" Everyone in the room chorused including Toya...

"Well, I do have a sister who wan't to be either a brain surgeon or a psychologist so I kind of just picked it up from her." Danny rolled his eyes.

"Oh, okay..." Aly replied. "So when are we leaving?"

Danny rolled his eyes and sighed. "As soon as Sam takes care of some business."

-.oOOo.-

When Danny, Aly, Tucker, Jazz, who insisted on coming because they needed a responsible adult along with them, and Toya, who charmed Jazz into letting her come, arrived in the basement, Sam was already standing there ready to go. No one even asked how she got in the house without a key, but hey, she did have superhuman powers.

"What took you guys so long?" Sam asked dryly as she leaned against the Spectra Speeder.

Danny decided not to even respond to that. All they had to do was find Sabrina's lair, take the crystal back, get out of the ghost zone and everything would be back to normal... or as normal as it got for him and Sam.

"Everyone pack in." said Jazz who was in the drivers seat. Toya had to end up sitting on Aly's lap. She could always fly, but fir some odd reason Aly felt that she really didn't want to be in the ghost zone. It was as if she was scared of something...

"Okay so how do we find Sabrina's lair?" Tucker asked stating the question on everyone's mind.

"Well I just say we look for a door decorated with a whole bunch of jewels and rubies." Sam replied as if it were obvious.

"That's a bit obvious isn't it." Tucker asked.

"Not as obvious as your attempted tries to flirt with-." Sam was cut off by Tucker.

"You know what? That might be a good idea. Let's keep a look out for a door decorated with jewelry." Tucker put in quickly and Sam smirked.

Aly blinked. Tucker tried to flirt with every girl in school. What girl was he so keen on keeping secret?

An hour after searching for a door that could be Sabrina's and being cussed out by several ghost when they knocked and asked against Aly and Toya's wishes for they knew none of the doors had been Sabrina's before they even went up to them. They were about ready to turn around and go home. They were deep in the ghost zone now and Sam looked as though she could care less if they found Sabrina or not right about now. Then Aly pointed out a door for the first time.

"Wait, look." she said pointing a door that, as Sam had predicted, was decorated with jewels. They was even a diamond doorknob.

They parked the Spectra Speeder next to it and stared at the door.

"You think that's it?" Sam asked her god- sister.

"Positive." Aly replied.

"You sure Aly?" Jazz asked and Aly opened her mouth to reply before she was cut off by Toya.

"This is Sabrina's door." she said quietly.

"How would you know?" Sam asked and Toya sighed.

"I've been here before." she gritted out...

Even though Sam was a bit messed up morally and character wise she could still sense that there was more to what Toya had said than it appeared on the surface. However she decided to ask her later when they were done here.

"So," Tucker said to Sam and Danny. "After you two, since you have the superhuman powers." he said and the two raen haired teens in turn glared.

Sam got out first and transformed with Danny behind her. She opened the door that led t the jewerly theiving ghost's lair and stepped inside followed by Tucker, Aly, Toya. Jazz had decided to stay outside and watch the Spectra Speeder.

The door closed behind them and then they saw just how must stealing Sabrina had done in the past few years.

-.oOOo.-

All done. The next chapter might be the last or second to last. I'm not really sure, but it's going to end soon. Here'syour sneak peek:

"What are you doing Phoenix?" he rolled his eyes trying to catch her attention as he went to stand behind her.

In her hands was a cotton candy pink heart shaped diamond on nice matching leather belt. She was looking over looking at it like a bird staring at a shiny object. Danny sighed.

"Phoenix!" he called and she looked up at him.

"Hmm," she said before turning back to look at the jewel.

"No stealing alright?"

"Why not?" Phoenix smirked. "Sabrina stole this, so would it really be a crime?"

Danny thought about this and saw the logic although it was logic from a villians point of view in his opinion, he had to admit she had a point.

"Put that down." he replied finding no argument.

"It reminds me of someone but I can't put a name on it..." Phoenix tilted her head.

"Well until you remember, let's go." Danny said pulling Phoenix but the hand to the door and through it.

Next chapter's the last. I told you it wouldn't be very long. The reason is because I'm looking forward to the next installment. It's going to be fun. R&R.
