Chapter Nine.
Danny opened his eyes, sat up and read the red numbers that were on his alarm clock. It was 2:34am so Danny stretched and lifted the covers off him. He transformed and floated down the hall, yawning. He felt himself being pulled into his sister's bedroom.
"What are you doing?" hissed Jazz.
"Warning dad, if he doesn't open the portal, there will be a huge ghost attack." Danny informed her.
"Oh, well, good luck." Jazz let go of him.
He continued to float down the hall and phased through his parents bedroom door. He saw his mom sleeping quietly and peacefully while his dad snored like a Jack hammer. She must have the Fenton earplugs in. Danny turned intangible and lifted his dad off the ground and into the living room.
"My belly feels funny." Jack mumbled.
He stretched his arms up and opened his eyes. He heard someone land with a thud on the ground.
"Who's there? And why am I here?" asked Jack.
Danny appeared in front of him and Jack stared in total shock.
"How did you get here?" Jack asked.
"You don't want to know. I have come here for a reason though, to warn you. The ghosts are planning a huge attack in Amity Park unless you open the ghost portal." Danny warned.
"How would they get out?" Jack asked.
"Your not the only one with a portal, Plasmius has one too." Danny told him.
"Well, I'm sorry but I can't do anything about it, ghost hunting was a thing of the past." Jack told him.
"Just don't get rid of the weapons." Danny told him.
Jack stared blankly at the ghost who floated in front of him. He slowly faded into the air. Jack was left wondering if what he had said was true. Was this really putting his town in danger? No, he just wanted the ghosts to be free again, I should have known. Jack sighed and got up off the couch, heading back to his bedroom.
He stepped inside and saw his wife, sleeping so peacefully. She must've been having a nice dream because she had a smile on her face. It was pretty cold and she was curled in a little ball. Jack silently slid into the bed and cuddled his wife. He slowly fell asleep, thinking of a new life for him.
Danny had been in his bed the whole time; he just got a clone to talk to his dad, that's why it faded when Danny called it back to him. Danny couldn't get to sleep, he was worried. Danny was thinking about how he would defend the town. Maybe he could get Wulf and some other ghosts to help him. Even though Danny was a really strong ghost, he still couldn't take them all by himself. He needed to go and train himself sometime. Luckily there was a week off school so Danny could find somewhere to train. After a while, Danny finally fell asleep, but not a very peaceful sleep.
Danny felt two hands shake him and opened his eyes. He was quite surprised to see Sam standing there, trying to get him to wake up.
"Danny, are you awake?" Sam asked.
"Yes, I am now." Complained Danny.
"Sorry, I need to talk to you. Oh, by the way, how did the talk with your dad go?" asked Sam.
"Terrible, he is soo stubborn. He said it isn't his problem because he doesn't hunt ghosts any more." Danny informed Sam.
"Well, the only thing we can do is train you and get other ghosts on your side." Sam told him.
"But where will I train?" Danny asked Sam the most important question.
"I was thinking last night. I couldn't sleep and I remembered what the vulture said, if we don't get the portal open there will be a huge attack so, I thought, what if Jack is as stubborn as I think he is? So, I went onto the internet and did some research…" Sam said.
"On what?" Danny asked.
"I will tell you soon, for now we need an excuse and we need to get into the ghost zone." Sam told Danny.
Danny nodded and hopped out of bed. He shooed Sam out of room and got ready to go. He packed some ghost weapons just in case; he didn't know where they were going and what they were doing. Danny ran his red comb through his hair, grabbed his backpack and walked downstairs.
"Good morning Danny." Jack said.
"Morning mom, morning dad." Danny greeted.
"Morning sweetie." Maddie called from the kitchen.
Jack looked like he had not gotten to sleep until late. Danny looked like he got a little bit of sleep. He looked like he had heaps of sleep compared to jack. Danny grabbed Sam's hand and pulled her towards Danny's mom.
"Mom, I'm sleeping at Sam's tonight ok?" Danny told her.
"Sure sweetie, have fun." Maddie said.
