Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't updated in a while and sorry I couldn't post two chapters at once, but it was either one chappie now or two chappies in about a month and I chose the former in your favor. I sure hope this chappie was worth the wait! Next chappie really starts heating up!

Chapter 9: Stolen

"I'm hungry Sam, and I'm bored stiff. Can we stop this?" Danny asked Sam with a yawn. Sam sighed and grudgingly told him he could stop. Danny immediately perked up and snapped his Braille book shut. Learning to read Braille definitely wasn't his favorite pastime. He sat up and turned around, groping for his cane. He smiled when he found it and headed for the door with Sam at his heels.

"Um, where do you want to go? Here or Nasty Burger?" She asked. Danny smiled and turned ghost.

"Nasty Burger!" He practically yelled as he scooped Sam up into his arms and flew through the ceiling. Sam yelped at first, but then started laughing as Danny tested his speed. She soon stopped laughing as he sped faster and faster; the wind cutting off her breath.

"Turn intangible!" She yelled in his ear with what air she could gulp. He frowned and slowed down.

"What did you say?" He asked, hovering. Sam gulped the air, refilling her starved lungs.

"Fast is nice, but I need to breathe. Please go intangible." She gasped. Danny's face took on a concerned expression.

"Are you okay?" He asked, taking one hand and sweeping it slowly across her face. Sam smiled and she could tell he felt her smile, because he mimicked it with his own.

"I'm fine, Danny." She said softly, brushing some of his snow white hair from his brilliant silver eyes.

"Let's go, but this time, please turn intangible." He chuckled and turned intangible before racing to the Nasty Burger at what Sam could've sworn was 200 mph.

"Wow, you're getting really fast." Sam said as Danny set her down in the alley beside the Nasty Burger and transformed back into Danny Fenton. He smiled and blushed slightly.

"Coming?" He asked, holding out his hand. Sam told him yes and took his offered hand.

As the two walked into the Nasty Burger and headed for their usual booth away from the rest, Danny felt his foot hook on something. He flailed his arms and found he was falling. He hit the floor with a smack and heard someone laughing. The laughter sounded very familiar, but he was a bit flustered to recognize it. A hand connected with his shoulder and he knew it was Sam.

"Danny, are you okay?" She asked, helping him up. This is when he noticed his cane was missing. He frowned, but didn't have time to ask Sam of its whereabouts.

"Hey, what's up Fentonni? Why you got a cane?" Danny closed his eyes briefly and prayed for patience as he recognized Dash's voice.

"Ha! Ha! Fentinni's getting old! Hey, did that fall break your hip old man?" Kwan was apparently there too, and he'd brought his lame humor. Danny turned toward their voices and took a breath.

"Can I please have that back?" He asked coolly, holding out his hand for the cane.

"Whoa. Are you like...blind? I've never seen a blind person before...let's trashcan him!" Dash said after a slight pause. Sam came out of nowhere and snatched the green cane from the bully.

"Leave him alone, you moron!" She said hotly.

"Ha! The Goth geek's trying to tell me what to do! Let's trashcan her too!"

"Dash, Sam might be a Goth geek, but she's a girl. We can't trashcan her." Kwan pointed out. Sam had had it. She hauled back and kicked Kwan where it hurt most. His knees buckled and he fell to the floor with a squeak of pain.

"I am SO tired of boys thinking us girls are weak! Go ahead and try to trashcan me Dash, 'cause I'm gonna kick your ass!" By now Danny was pondering whether to help his best friend or burst out laughing. He decided to let her go, for he knew what she was like when her temper got the better of her. He'd been subject to her evil steel-toed combat boots before; his shins had hurt for days afterward, but Tucker still claimed she'd taken it easy on him.

"Take Kwan, I'm too hot to die!" Dash screeched, darting out of the Nasty Burger. Sam sighed and turned to Danny, who was grinning.

"Are you still hungry?" She asked. Danny shook his head.

"Not really, I just wanted to get away from studying." Sam shook her head.

"Well, do you want to go back to your house?" She asked. Danny nodded and Sam led him back to the alleyway to transform.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Once Danny and Sam reentered Fenton Works, Danny immediately sensed something amiss.

"Sam, get behind me." He said slowly, cautiously. Sam felt her skin crawl at the uneasiness in his voice and obliged to his warning, looking over his shoulder for any danger he might miss without his eyes.

"What is it, Danny?" Sam whispered shakily. Now she too could feel the eeriness that had overcome the house. Danny shook his head and stepped forward, neglecting the use of his cane to ensure silence. He knew Sam would be his eyes, and the fact that he knew his house like the back of his hand also helped him without the cane. Knowing it was the source of most of his troubles, Danny went straight to the Fenton Portal. He could sense something different in the room, but he couldn't put his finger on it, literally.

"The Specter Speeder. It's gone." Sam said in shock.

"What about Mom's new Ecto-Skeleton?" Danny asked. Sam's mouth dropped.

"Your mom made a new Ecto-Skeleton?" Danny nodded.

"Shit."
