Hellbreaker, it really sucks, but what is a good story without some angst?
FlyingGekko,Nyra Nightfall,and mia-nailo, thanks for adding this story to your alerts.
The hero Sam looked up in shock as she noticed the Speeder, the realization of what was going on clear in her amethyst gaze. The other part of her looked on in horror as she too realized what was about to happen. She didn't care, but at the same time she knew that the other Sam was part of her, was her, and even if there were times in her life that she truly didn't think she mattered... This moment cleared that up as she looked over at her friend. Tucker was looking less than thrilled with the fact that Jack Fenton wanted to dispose of the ghost in front of him. What either of them could see was Danny as his father pushed him in front of the controls, forcing the prior ghostly male into aiming the weapons at Sam. Sam's eyes grew wide with fear as the weapon warmed up, the sonar telling Danny that it was locked and loaded and that all he had to do was push the red button. Below him the anti-Sam took a step forward, real fear flickering in her amethyst gaze as her best friend made a fake fumble, blasting the air next to the floating Sam and in effect falling out of the speeder.
Screams filled the air as the former halfa tumbled toward the earth, anti-Sam rushing forward as if she could somehow save her friend while the other Sam dove down, speeding to catch him. The hero managed to catch her best friend, though she wasn't physically able to hold him long as gravity pulled them all down and on top of anti-Sam.
"Fuck," the anti-Sam grumbled under the pair as Sam found herself face to face with her crush. Hearing the curse the couple attempted to de-tangle themselves off of the angry Goth. BAM! The ground shuddered as a blast shattered the earth before them, Jack bearing down on them angrily, worried about his son being so close to his target.
"I'll save you son!" he hollered. Behind the ghost hunter appeared Technus, his large size making the ground shake as he shot at Jack, several shots hitting the speeder and knocking it forward. The trio rushed toward the downed human, though both Sams were more concerned with the large mechanical ghost getting them and less with the man wanting to kill them.
"Back up copies? Why didn't I think of that?" the ghost queered before turning tail and rushing off.
Hero Sam grabbed anti-Sam by the arms and headed off, leaving Danny, Tucker and Jack behind.
"We need to head him off," the hero stated to the scowling anti. Glaring up at her ghost half the Goth attempted to cross her arms.
"Us? Don't think so."
"Why not?" the hero inquired. "It's our job!"
"Correction, it's your job! I can't even go ghost or did you lose your brain when you became a ghost?" The hero half shook her head.
"You can get past his ghost shield and I can't." Another protest was about to escape her lavender lips, but the hero Sam wasn't about to hear it as she dropped her human half on the back of Technus. The anti-Sam grumbled something under her breath, but entered the ghostly monster as the other half headed for the front. As hero Sam began shooting at the mechanical ghost the anti-Sam began pushing buttons, hoping that she was anywhere but in the stomach of a ghost. With each button another device opened up and drained the battery of Technus, the disco ball flashing and the radio blasting as they began to slow in their path to the power plant. With the power draining the large monstrosity finally stopped at the edge of the pier as hero Sam pulled anti-Sam from the belly of the beast, the pair pushing him into the water.
"If Danny's dad expects me to pay for that then he is sooooo out of luck," anti-Sam grumbled.
"And that is what makes you such a bad person," hero Sam stated as the other Goth walked away. That stopped her though. She looked over at the other Sam, her lips twisted up.
"Here's the deal though,hero," she stated with a sneer. "I don't care much for what others think, unlike you. I don't care about you or my parents or Jack Fenton."
"You care about Danny, and I know that for a fact or you wouldn't have been trying to catch him. Face the facts that no matter human or ghost we want to protect the one person who has been there for us."
"Suuure, he's been there for us, but there are times he doesn't seem to care what we think and for that I am glad to be rid of all o-" she was cut off as hero Sam overshadowed her in attempt to combine them.
"Then maybe there doesn't need to be me or you, but an us, the real us." At that moment Danny and Tucker appeared.
"Sam?" She turned to them with a smile, her amethyst eyes a blazing green. "Are you okay?"
"Never better," she said, her hands on her hips. Eyebrows raised the boys looked to each other.
As they sat in Danny's room, Sam looking pensively at the Catcher Tucker voiced his concerns. The sun was setting in the window overlooking the city.
"Are you sure everything is good?" The Goth looked over at the pair of males.
"Tuck's right," the former halfa stated. "Something seems off about you. How did you merge back together?"
"Well, I j-" Sam started to say, cut off suddenly as an eerie glow surrounded her.
"Get the hell out of me!" Sam suddenly yelled, her hands reaching into her stomach to the disgust of the males before her. "What did you think you were doing?!" The hero half pointed at her.
"Making us one again!" Anti-Sam frowned as she looked in the mirror, as if her hero half could have changed something.
"You didn't merge us, you idiot! You overshadowed me! And against my will I might add! I don't want to be a part of you!"
