A/N: I'm updating today; be glad… this idea was sponsored by the song life after death by KJ52.
Thanks for everyone's reviews, and to acosta perez jose Ramiro: yes, he did.
Please review this last chapter. I thought about making this into a multi chapter book but I have too much going on, so here it goes… Enjoy, read, review, you know the drill.

Jack sighed. "You know the ghost kid?"
Sam jumped in. "Danny … Danny was the ghost kid and your husband killed him!"
"Jack?" Maddie gasped, feeling for Danny's pulse, but he was gone. "Oh my GOD JACK! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!"
Jack started sobbing. "It was just a mistake," he said. "It was just a mistake; he was hugging Jazz in his ghost form and I told him to 'get away from my daughter', and he didn't right away so I blasted. What have I done!" he sobbed.
Sam's face finally broke out in tears. "I'm calling the police," she said quietly. "Mistake or not, they have to know." She and Tucker both left the room.
"I can't believe it," Tucker said, and Sam could see his eyes were still streaked with tears. "Danny? Dead? Killed by his own father? I can't believe it Sam, it's all a joke or a nightmare and I'm going to wake up and find out this is all a dream."
Sam pinched him. "Or maybe not," he muttered. "He was my best friend," he cried. They held each other and cried; cried for lost time.
"It's funny," Jazz said, joining the min the kitchen. "Yesterday we were fighting, again, about mom and dad's ghost hunting. We never made up, and yet, he saved me, and he's dead… this is all my fault."

Jack and Maddie stayed in the living room. "I'm going to turn myself in," he said quietly. "I don't know what the police will do, it was accidental. But I need to do it. I need to do it for Danny."
"I never knew this would happen," Maddie muttered pacing the hallway. "I can't believe this happened, this is all my fault… I got you into ghost hunting Jack… WHAT HAVE I DONE?" she sobbed.

Six months later
The police at Jack's trial smiled. "We have ruled the death an accident," they pronounced finally. "You were only protecting your daughter, sir. Just don't do it again."
Things still weren't right; Sam was more Goth if possible; Tucker still cried sometime, even the football team missed him.
Even Valerie said she missed him, she missed the "ghost kid", as she called him. But Sam could see otherwise.
All she could do was think about it, and get sadder, and sadder. She knew one thing: she still missed Danny.
Everyone did.
Kind of lame I guess, didn't turn out how I was expecting too, but please review.
- I am aware that "sadder" is not a word.
