Hellbreaker, thanks for catching the issue with the chapter and in the original series Tucker seems against having Valerie as part of the group. And yeah, I suppose that a man taking off another male's pants would be a little disturbing...a lot disturbing. XD

Meek Millz Miller, thanks for adding this story to your alerts.

Valerie turned to the two males, a question in her eyes as she looked in the direction that Sam had rushed off to.

"Where is she always rushing off to?" she muttered, the pair of males looking rather worried at the sudden interest where their halfa friend was doing. There was no way that this human female could know Sam was off fighting ghosts. "Only girls I know that rush off have something important to do or someone they are dying to see...like a boyfriend." A smirk twisted the teen's lips. "I can't believe I didn't notice that earlier! The Goth girl must have a boyfriend!" It was Danny who looked scathingly at the female.

"Sam doesn't have a boyfriend!" Tucker just shook his head. As far as Sam went he knew that she only hung out with them, the only two males in her life besides her father.

"Seems that you like her," the dark skinned teen stated and when Danny opened his mouth to ask more the teen shook her head. "You should make a move before someone else steps into that position." With that said she walked off

"She's just my friend!" the former halfa fumed. "Why would Valerie think that I care who she dates besides the fact that as a friend I don't want her hurt." Before Tucker could get a word in a beep came from his pocket and he pulled out his PDA as a transmission from the local news became to fill the halls.

"This is Tiffany Snow with GEBS, Ghost Emergency Broadcast System and Amity Park is in the throes of a massive ghost attack!" The female that had been broadcasting continued to do that as the screen changed to one of the ghost skeletons attacking humans and vehicles alike as they made their way across the town. "And now here is Lance Thunder with the ghost weather!" As it changed to a male, a blond male who didn't look to happy to be there, the male teens looked to each other in slight unease.

"As you can see," Lance stated with a sweep of his hand over the board behind him. "We have random ghost attacks in malls, parks, and even in this box store." As the camera changed to show a small store Jack and Maddie watched the screen in horror. "If you look to the west you can see that the ghosts are moving out from the center of town and are heading toward Casper High." Behind the pair of adults was the bottom half of the suit Jack had been working on, the one that had sapped his life force, but the pair were so draw in by what was happening on the screen.

"We have to help them," Jack stated, his voice weak as he held his head, the feeling of being dizzy still making his stomach turn. Maddie shook her head.

"You're still weak from using the suit. You are in no shape to go to the school. I will get Jazz and Danny." Rushing off she left her husband to watch the news with a nod of his head.

In another building a father watched the screen with mixed feelings as the newscaster informed all parents to come to the school and pick up their children before danger befell them. In that same moment the blond male let out a cry, the camera shaking his image.

"RUN!" he cried before taking off, skeletons making their way onto the screen just moments before the screen went to static, the news off the air with the invasion of paranormal forces. With a cry of his own the father of Valerie rushed out of his home.

At the school a certain villain appeared, his black horned hair moving in the wind that blew around the football field as Sam appeared, her eyes wide at the appearance of Vlad, Danny's former enemy turned hers.

"Not now of all times." The older ghost looked bewildered to see her in her halfa form, his red eyes looking her over in both interest and irritation...like he knew that she was the good guy in all of this.

"Who are you?" he inquired before shaking his head and saying, "Never mind. You aren't important. I am more concerned with that!" Pointing behind her she found that they were both cornered by the Fright Knight and the group that came charging in behind him. Sam found it was easy to take down the skeletons that were coming at her, though there were many and they didn't seem to pause as their comrades were shot down before them, she found they were weak. Just as she turned to take one down another came up behind her, his sword raised to end her life when a magenta beam came out of nowhere, taking down her would be assailant.

When she noticed who was helping her all she could say was, "You? Why?" At the moment he would have given her an answer, not one she was sure she would believe, but an answer none the less, the man in question was hauled into the air by the front of his shirt. A rather ticked off Fright Knight pulled the other ghost to his face, their noses just inches away.

"Where is the King's prize! Where is it?!"
