Danny walked with his friends after school, enjoying the last few days of school where teachers hardly gave out homework. Danny glanced over at Sam and blushed before looking away, unnoticed. Things still haven't changed throughout the whole school year and now he was planning on doing something about it. But he was just waiting for the right time, which was hard since the sudden ghost attacks recently.

"So, Danny, what should we do today?" Sam asked.

Danny looked back over and shrugged. "I don't know," Danny answered.

"Man, if you two lovebirds could get any more obvious it'd be on the side of a blimp!" Tucker burst, knowing the sides of both of them.

"We're not lovebirds!" The two best friends shouted back automatically. Tucker hadn't let them live down the comment since halfway through the school year.

"Sure you aren't," Tucker smiled in an I-know-something-you-don't-know grin.

Danny glared daggers at Tucker and tried his hardest to get Tucker to notice, but Tucker merely grinned foolishly and hummed to himself, pretending not to notice.

"Anyway," Sam began again, "I think we should head over to the movie theater. I heard that that new movie coming out was supposed to be good… What was it called again?"

"Killer Ninja Cats from Venus XIV, The Allergic Tale," the two boys said in unison. "And I thought you hated those kinds of movies," Danny finished.

"Well, we need to have something to do," Sam complained.

"Man, we have no life," Tucker frowned.

"Yeah, you said it," Danny sighed dejectedly.

"What about just going to the park?" Sam asked, trying to cheer up the nonchalant boys.

"Sure, that'll work," Tucker shrugged. Danny shrugged with him and began walking across the street towards the park.

Meanwhile…

It was Angel's first day on her new job. Of course, it wasn't a normal job. She would have been lucky to have just an average job, but this was definitely not average, as nothing in her life seemed to be. She was literally an angel who had to do community service so she can become human again. Her pager started beeping loudly on her braided, black belt as she flapped her – in her opinion – overly exaggerated white wings. At least she was able to convince the boss not to do the whole halo and glowing body thing as well. She looked down the street before seeing a group of three friends crossing the street as a car was speeding up to the crosswalk about a half-mile away.

"Uh oh," Angel frowned before skydiving towards the car. She stopped a yard in front of the car and braced herself for impact a foot above the ground. She spread her wings and pushed against the car, trying to slow it down as much as she could. She breathed heavily as the car came to a screeching halt and her thankfully relaxed from all the wind pressure that had tried to force them to bend in a way that they weren't supposed to.

"Oh my g–"

"Don't you say god's name in vain! Geez, you'd think guy'd get a little respect after looking out for ya'll for so many centuries!" Angel interrupted.

"Are you really an angel?" the man in the car asked, his cell phone slipping out of his hand and to the floor.

"You bet," Angel grinned proudly, letting the sun hitting her back make it seem as if she really had a glowing body. "Now, don't speed! You almost hit these kids!"

"Hey, we're not kids!" the girl announced from behind her, being the first to come out of the shock that they just saw a real live angel.

"Sorry, but whatever, just– Hey, wait a minute– Where's the thanks I get for saving your butts?" Angel demanded as the man in the car began shifting gears and pulling away slowly.

"A thank you? Just who– what are you?" the girl protested.

"Just call me You're-Friendly-Neighborhood-Guardian-Angel-For-Two-Months. Angel for short," she grinned. "Hey, you're that kid! Boss wants to thank you for helping out and saving all those people."

Danny blinked up the girl whose wings were slowly disappearing by losing all of its feathers. "Um, you're welcome?"

"Oh, shoot," Angel frowned as she looked down at her pager. The three wondered why she was looking at it before it began beeping loudly and red letters flashed across it, too quickly to read all of it. "I got to go…" Angel sighed dejectedly before flapping her wings and, in a flurry of feathers flying back to their spots on the large, snow-white wings, took off towards the center of town.

"Hey, wait!" Danny called after the angel. "This is my job too."

"Right, well, I have to do this for community service, you don't, so don't try and look too good or I might not get my hours," Angel smiled jokingly and stopped mid air over the disturbance. A giant, ghost snake was the problem as hissed at the screaming people who were fleeing for their lives away from the menacing creature in the middle of the road.

"Aw man, I thought I put him in the ghost zone last week!" Danny complained.

"Aw, he's so cute!" Angel proclaimed and flew down next to him.

"Hey, wait, he's dangerous!" Danny called and flew after her. He stopped about five yards away as he watched Angel become a great snake charmer as she scratched under its chin.

"You poor, scared girl, let's get you upstairs," Angel cooed gently as the two things began happening simultaneously. The snake started shrinking to the regular size of a cobra as it began to glow with Angle and lift up towards the sky. Danny dropped to the ground and watched as the snake disappeared in the bright light.

"Whoa," Tucker announced next to Danny, breathing heavily from running along the streets to make it to where his friend was without having the power to just fly over the buildings.

"Yeah," Danny nodded numbly. He heard Sam run up next to him, but she didn't say a word, only watched as the light faded.

Angel slowly came back to Earth and clapped her hands, bringing the three friends out of their stupor. "Come on, I've got nothing to do until this thing goes off. What do normal teenagers do for fun around here?"

"Well, we were going to go to the park," Sam frowned, somehow feeling ever more distrustful of the strange girl.

"Oh, well, can I get out of these robes? I hate them and they make me look like a total dork. Just hold on for a sec," Angel frowned and knitted her eyebrows together in concentration. Her clothes began shifting and changing as the belt mixed with the white robe to form a pair of black jeans as her wings folded around her to form a brilliantly white t-shirt. Her pager hung responsibly on her left belt loop, sitting there patiently as if it were waiting for the right moment to beep at the angel. "Okay, let's go!"

"Uh, I didn't–"

"Come on, slowpokes!" Angel smiled happily and grabbed Sam's and Tucker's hands before pulling them towards the far side of the street.

"Uh, if you haven't noticed, dude, we're going the wrong way," Tucker frowned as he pulled Danny alongside him.

"Um, where is the park, then?" Angel blushed in embarrassment.

"It's that way," Danny pointed with his free hand to the exact opposite way that Angel was going.

"Oh, oops," Angel laughed as she pulled them the other way behind her. Already, Sam could tell that this was going to be a long day, but she could tell that the boys didn't mind the strange girl/angel at all.
