Chapter 7
Tucker walked off. Danny had a really bad feeling about this. He thought for a second that she wanted to break up with him and didn't want to see him again, so instead of having to see him, she was moving to Wisconsin with Danny's archenemy, Plasmius. Vlad Plasmius.
"Danny. Well I want to apologize. I'm so, so sorry! It is all my fault. I feel so upset. You are so tired and fed up of having to save the town all the time and it is all my fault. I convinced you to go into the portal. I am the reason you are the way you are. I just want to say I'm sorry. If you don't want to see me anymore I will understand." Cried Sam, pouring her heart out.
"What do you mean? I'm not angry. I like these powers. As you said earlier on this year these powers make me unique. I wouldn't leave you. Sam, remember, I love you." Danny said.
With that piece of encouraging information Sam threw her arms around Danny.
"I love you too." Cried Sam.
"Guys? Sorry to interrupt your moment but Danny, your mom is on the phone." Grinned tucker, racing towards them.
"Oh, ok. Hi mom." Moaned Danny.
"Danny, Jazz just told me something very disturbing. I need to find out if it is true, come home immediately." Screamed Maddie before hanging up.
"Oh my gosh! I think Jazz told them my secret. Mum wants me home immediately because Jazz told her something very disturbing." Screamed Danny worried.
"Really, that doesn't sound like Jazz. Maybe you should go check this out. Call us when you are done, that is if your not being tested." Said Sam, confused.
"Yeah, I will. If she has spilled my secret I am going to kill her. I might be hunted like an animal when I get home. If they approach me I am going to deny it but if they keep asking I will just run out of the door and fly off for a while. Think it through, if you know what I mean." Complained Danny, walking off.
The wind was blowing and as Danny approached his house he noticed the ghost shield was up. Luckily he was half ghost so he could get through the ghost shield. One of the many advantages of being half ghost, half human. Danny opened the door and headed for the living room where he was expecting to see his family. Of course, there they were. Jazz was on an armchair reading a book called 'How to Survive Your Parents.'
While Maddie and Jack were on the sofa.
"Come sit here Danny. I need to talk with you." Maddie patted the space beside her.
"Uh… ok" said Danny.
"Hey Danny, what's up?" asked Jazz, winking at Danny.
"Oh nothing, just hanging around by the nasty burger." Moaned Danny, instantly knowing she had told them.
"Danny, see Jazz told me all about your secret. How you have been working part time at the Nasty Burger to save up to buy some stuff instead of asking us for it. I am really proud of you." Cried Maddie.
"It's a lie I'm not a… oh you know about that? I'm sorry I didn't tell you. I just wanted to buy you something nice and for it to be a surprise." Stuttered Danny, choking.
"Well, how sweet of you. That's all I wanted to talk to you about. By the way, have you seen any ghost near the nasty burger? That's where they like to hang out, I hear." Asked Maddie.
"Ok. Ghosts? No, no NO! There have been no ghosts there." Groaned Danny, poking Jazz.
He signalled for her to follow. She saw what he was doing and got up and put her book on the seat. She followed him down to the Lab and stood there looking at him for a few moments, confused.
"What is it, Danny?" asked Jazz, still having no idea of what was going on.
"Why did you tell them that? And when mom said secret I thought that you had told her the truth. Just promise me that you won't tell her about my secret ok?" Danny exploded at Jazz.
"Settle down. I was just covering for you. Besides, I would never tell them the truth about you." Frowned Jazz. "Now if you don't mind I am in the middle of a book."
"Secret? What secret?" Maddie Fenton asked herself, listening to the conversation.
