And we return for another night. I was too tired to finish off part 1, so here is part 2!


Chapter 10: A Haunted Day in the Life of Heather part 2

Somewhere in the ghost zone...

"Your majesty! One of your workers went dark!"

The ghost with ten computer screens and four keyboards, each with one hand, did not turn around. She hissed and flicked her tail.

"Don't tell me what I already know, small one. I felt her die. It should have been impossible, unless that scientist of yours murdered her." The queen ruffled her wings angrily as she hovered.

Slowly, she turned around to face the commander, towering over him. The light of the computer screens that reflected off her shiny red skin were no match for the brightness of her green eyes glowing in anger. Her wasp-like wings twitched rapidly and her three-feet-long antennae were raised higher than normal. Her mandibles were inches from biting into the green ghost in the ghost police uniform.

"I expect compensation for that good soldier," she growled, "And if one more dies, I get double the pay."

"Yes, your majesty. It will be arranged." He bowed, and quickly flew away.

The Ant Queen turned back to her computer, not saying another word.


Back to Earth...

Class 4: English with Ms. Shane

It was unknown what trouble might happen in English with the dull Ms. Shane. Her harsh, monotonous voice was making everyone fall asleep. Luckily, Heather had her ghost sense to jerk her awake.

To her disappointment, it was Yoltrun. He morphed into some strange beetle and landed on Heather's desk. Nobody was paying attention.

"What are you doing here?" Heather asked silently.

The beetle-Yoltrun crawled up to her ear to whisper, making Heather shudder. "I'm bored. I keep getting tiny blips of ghost energy on my scanner, but they're too few and far between. I can't get any fun out of trying to find them, they're too tiny. Anyways, how's the ghost powers?"

"How do you know?"

"I saw it. That portal only opened near you so it could absorb the energy inside you. Unfortunately, when you touched the portal, it backfired and sent all of its energy into you, activating your core. I came through the portal a few seconds before you entered the room. Now, do you want to go hunt some ghost energy blips?"

"No, but I have lunch after this. can we wait a bit?"

Yoltrun pouted. "Fine." he crawled into Heather's backpack.

Heather laid her head down on the desk, not fighting the tiredness that came over her, and soon fell asleep.


Lunch

Against her will, Heather was stuck with Yoltrun all lunch. The two were flying around the city in some strange mix of scouting and training.

"Your tail's too tangible! Lighten it up to gain more speed! Remember-"

"Yes, I know! Ethereal, not corporeal! I'm too tired and hungry for this, can't we go back?"

"Your father's not a quitter, so why should you be!"

"Don't bring my dad into this!"

In her distraction, she was flying straight at a building.

"AAAAAAAAH!"

"Intangible! Hurry!"

Her head went straight through the building. Her body crashed into the wall.

And, apparently, a head suddenly popping through the wall was not well accepted in a thirtieth-story office in Amity Park.

At nearly a hundred miles per hour, Heather's head hitting a water cooler and launching it across the room was not pleasant to her. Not just because it hurt, but because it drew a lot of attention to her.

The stares lasted only a few seconds. All she had time to say was a simple "sorry" before she was yanked out by Yoltrun.

An angry Yoltrun peeked into the window, where he could see two people investigating where they saw the ghostly, disembodied head pop through the wall, and other people were investigating the damage made by the 90 mile per hour water cooler launched by that head.

"I think we need a lesson in stopping. I guess it runs in the family. Anyways, you should probably back to your school. Class must be starting soon."

"I'm exhausted and my head hurts like crazy, and you're barely even worried about me!"

Yoltrun grabbed Heather's wrist. "Keep in mind that if you were fully human you would be completely dead."

With a disgruntled hmmph, Heather submitted to Yoltrun yanking heather through the sky towards the school.


Class 5: History with Mr. Magpie

The bell was about to ring.

Alex was nervously tapping his foot, waiting for Heather to return. She was going to be late.

CRASH!

The door flew open and Heather came literally flying through screaming "Not again!" as she hit the bookcase face first, breaking it and covering her with books.

As the kids laughed, Mr. Magpie looked at Heather, then out the door, then Heather again.

The teacher was confused. "Are you... ok?"

The girl climbed out from the pike of books and rubble. Sarcastically, she said, "oh yes, I'm ok, everything is fine and dandy." She went to her desk.

"What happened?" questioned Alex from the seat in front of her.

"A near-100 mile per hour impact with a water cooler, and then Yoltrun throwing me in here." She leaned back in her chair and sighed. "Now please, let me sleep."

The class gave her a couple odd stares after the incident, but she was too tired to care. That "patrolling" tired her out, and the headache from two high-speed crashes made wakefulness too painful. So she slept all class without a care.


Class 6: Science with Mrs. Jacobs

Heather was early to class, so she decided to steal the teacher's snake by Alex's suggestion.

So she did.

She invisibly and intangibly pulled the ball python out of its tank and stuck it down her shirt when the teacher wasn't looking.

It wrapped itself around her shoulder, and stayed there the rest of class. She put it back after class, and nobody noticed ever again.


Class 7: Study hall in Library

It was time.

The moment she'd been waiting fo

It was time to open the stolen laptop from the secret lab. They forgot about it until now, when Heather started sorting her backpack.

The duo were in the farthest corner of the library. They didn't want these secrets to be shared.

"Ready, Al?" Heather had her hand on the edge of the laptop, prepared to open it.

"Ready."

Heather opened the laptop to see a screen full of folders, each one a category of ghosts. The duo read through the titles, but one folder stood out to them: The folder marked "Halfas" with a different icon than the other folders on the desktop.

Heather clicked that folder. Inside were only three files. She clicked the only name she recognized.

Danny Phantom.

Heather read the whole page of the profile. However, there was another page to this profile.

Heather's eyes widened as she saw the title and read the first line. "Alex, how is this possible?"

Alex was amazed, and he was trying to stifle his laughter of excitement. "I can't believe it! Your dad is half ghost!"
