*Daniel*

Ok I've heard of ghost towns but this is ridiculous! Every time I turn around there's another ghost. I sucked up a ghost squid that was seriously pissed at me for some reason. A scream rang across the empty sky that I recognized as Sam. I met up with Elle on the way there. "Where are all these ghosts coming from?"
"I mean we've had busy nights but this is just overkill!" Another scream echoed as we passed over the park. I looked down to see Tucker lying on the ground with PDAs, cords, and who knows what else scattered on the ground in front of him. I rushed toward him as a huge cobra was about to take a bite out of him.
"I wouldn't eat that. He's mostly skin and bones." I pushed against the cobra's mouth long enough for Tucker to get out of the way. I sucked the snake into the thermos as soon as my hands were free. Sam came rushing up to me and Dani was right behind her. A blue mist escaped her mouth as she was about to say something. A couple on a motorcycle sped past where we stood.
"I'm going to take a shot in the dark and say that was the ghost." The girls and I glared at Tucker who was suddenly very interested in his shoes.
"Ya think?" Elle snapped right before flying off after the two ghosts. I followed shortly after and we wound up in the middle of a bridge with the two ghosts and a black blob.
"Johnny I said no. Is that the only reason you brought us here?"
"Oh come on Kitty. Just once alright?"
"No Johnny! I want to go home!" I turned invisible and floated closer to them. I saw a girl who was dressed like, well a hooker. She was arguing with a blonde haired boy who was sitting on the motorcycle I saw a few minutes prior. The bike itself was black with a white number 13 that was outlined in a red circle. I was about to go up to them when a familiar chill ran through my body and the ever-so-helpful blue mist escaped my mouth. I shot off signaling to Danielle that it was time to go. The couple with the bike weren't causing any trouble and if the girl got her way they'd go back on their own. By the end of the night we had three thermoses full of ghosts. Big ghosts, small ghosts, easy ghosts, hard ghosts… "BEWARE" …Box Ghost. It took all of three seconds to take him out and we let them go in the ghost zone. Jazz came in to give us a hug and a concerned look because it was two in the morning. I stared at the roof of the bedroom and drifted into dreamland wishing for a day where we didn't have to suffer. Like that would happen though.

"Hey Fen-toad!" I felt a hand grab my shoulder and roughly shove me against a wall. I was almost safe too. Just a few more meters and I would have been safe from him. "I heard from my buddies that you were talking trash about me." I looked at him with a terrified expression, not because I was guilty but because I knew he wouldn't let me say a word. I just gulped and braced myself for the punch that was coming. I opened my eyes a while later and found that Dash wasn't moving. He looked at me questioningly before the bell rang for C block. "You're lucky this time Fen-toad but you're going to pay when the last bell rings." I walked into Mr. Stick-up-the-ass-you're-a-problem-child-so-you-don't-get-a-break Foster.
"Daniel, you and your sister are late." He scribbled his name on two of the slips and handed them to us. We took our seats behind Sam and Tucker who just looked at us. I was actually paying attention to our lesson on a war over bananas when a piece of paper hit my arm.

Danny: What happened to your eye? ~Sam

Sam: Long story short, Dash ~Danny

I continued to vaguely listen to the lesson thinking that Sam would toss it back. When classes ended for the day I grabbed my backpack out of my locker and rushed home. My bag was heavy and it felt like I had a tonne of bricks in it. My backpack landed on the floor with a THUNK as I dropped it off my shoulder. I couldn't focus on my homework and decided to go on patrol. My ghost sense went off around downtown. I looked down to see a huge green dog. I went up to it. "Ok nice doggy. Let's go back to the Ghost Zone." I pulled out a thermos and the dog took off without any warning. "Great. Just when I thought I'd catch a break." I flew after the dog and grabbed the leash. I put my feet on the ground and tried to slow it down, no luck. The dog turned around and made a move to bite me. Instinctively I let go of the leash to protect myself. Big mistake. As soon as the horse sized mutt saw I wasn't holding him back anymore it took off toward the outskirts on the north side of Amity. I followed the dog into Axion Labs and hoped to whatever gods that were up there I found this dog before it did any real damage. I phased through the roof and looked around; I shrugged my shoulders just as a green bullet shot passed, knocking my flat on my back. I got to my feet and shot after it. I grabbed the leash again but this time the dog just kept going with me flying along like a kite from the thick leather rope. My stomach churned as the dog was going around in circles as if it was looking for something. I managed to suck the ghost into the thermos but not before it totally destroyed the command center of, just my luck, security. The green dog shrunk and started phasing through walls and doors as if it was looking for something. The small green puppy stopped in front of me. I reached out toward the green dog who looked at me with wondering eyes. His tongue flopped out as he panted. I felt the soft puppy fur and a spark shivered through my mind.

The room was full of kennels of different sizes, but the only one of them had an animal in it. In a kennel on the floor was a small dog. It was a bit pudgy and had bright blue eyes. The puppy's front paws were black and the legs were white. He also had a white stripe going down the middle of his face. A clang sounded in the room and I turned so see a woman dressed in a security guard uniform followed by a man with a syringe in his hand. The puppy yapped and wagged its tail when the woman picked it up. His entire expression changed as soon as he saw the man and he started growling and barking menacingly. The man backed away for a few seconds before the lady put a muzzle on the puppy's mouth. I saw tears flow down her face as the man pricked the dog with the needle. The puppy started to squirm and tried to escape the woman's arms. She started whispering into the dog's ear as the tears flowed faster. The puppy's tail stopped wagging as it yawned before its eyes started to close. I felt tears flow down my cheeks with realization and the man took the small black puppy from the lady before closing the door behind him.

I jumped back and landed on the floor as I stared at my hand in confusion. What the hell was that anyway? I looked up to see the dog who had his head cocked to the side and his ears listening for danger. I quickly took out the thermos before the dog could change his mind about being near me. I sat on the floor and continued to stare at my hand and the thermos in it. The puppy I saw looked similar to the green one but the bigger dog it could turn into was a mystery to me. I shook my head to clear it, and made myself a little dizzy in the process. Pushing myself on my feet I turned intangible and flew through the roof.

"Where have you been? Sam and Tucker said they retired almost an hour and a half ago!" Dani tackled me into the wall as soon as I was solid again. "I'm fine Dani. I just had a little ghost trouble."
"A little?! Daniel Viscol Fenton an hour long ghost fight is more than a little problem. I groan at the use of my full name.
"Must you use my full name?"
"If it gets something through that thick skull of yours I'll use it as much as I need too."
"I'm sorry Elle. I should have called you for help. But the weirdest thing happened." Her eyes stirred a small amount of neon green and I saw the fear in her eyes. "I touched this ghost dog…"
"Ghost dog? Ghost DOG?!"
"Yes. Dog. Anyways the weird thing is that suddenly I was in a totally different room and the dog… I…"
"You, what?"
"I think I saw it die." My eyes stung with unshed tears as the look on the puppy's face flashed through my mind. Arms wrapped around my neck and shoulders as Danielle hugged me and felt the sadness through our bond. A shiver went through us as the ghost sense went off. I started to get up when Danielle used her superhuman strength to keep me down.
"Ignore it. Seeing as it's almost one in the morning it's probably just Boxy." I nodded against her shoulder as the tears kept flowing. A knock sounded at the door and Jazz walked in.
"Hey, little bro. I see your back. Danny you know I don't encourage this staying out but you should at least tell someone if you plan on being late."
"Butt out Jazz. I don't care what you do or don't want me to do. You're my sister not my mother."
"Danny I'm only looking out for my younger brother and sister. You are going through a rebellious phase and I want to be able to help your psychological growth."
"Jazz if you just going to psychoanalyze me then just get out of our room." Jazz frowned and huffed as she walked out of the room. Something soft hit my head as Dani threw pajamas at me. "We should be going to sleep." I slipped off my pants and shirt. In the mirror on the other side of the room I saw all the smooth, pale skin of my body. I ran my fingers across my chest and stomach and pictured the scars that should litter my body. I glanced over to my left and saw Danielle's back as she unclasped her bra and let it fall to the floor. Her skin was as pale and clear as mine was and the line upon line of scars that should be imprinted across her body.
"Amazing…" I didn't realize I spoke out loud until Danielle turned around with her hair draping over her chest and her shirt on her right arm.
"It truly is. Even the scars from before are gone." I felt her hand go across the place faintly outlined with the calligraphic D. The blue spotted mist rose from our mouth and we quickly put on shirts. I looked out the window and saw Skulker just floating there. We shrugged and Danielle shifted to her ghost form. I saw her talking to Skulker her before they both started flying toward me.
"Danny, believe it or not he just wants to talk." I raised an eyebrow but refrained from attacking him.
"Ghost children."
"What do you want, Skulker?"
"As I told your sister all I want to do is talk."
"About what?" Danielle and I both had a suspicion about that answer but I thought we should ask just in case.
"About what I saw the other day."
"Why do you even care anyway Skulker? We've beat you and sent you back to the ghost zone more times than we would ever care to count."
"But no one deserves to be treated like that," the hunter's voice held a small note of disgust.
"And what do you want to do about it?"
"I'm proposing a truce."
"A truce? Why?"
"Yes. I don't give you a reason to send me back to the zone and I will be your ally, so to speak." I looked toward Elle. Well? I think we should see how it goes. It would be nice to have someone who isn't an enemy. But what if it's a trick? Then we make sure he'll think twice about it.
"Ok Skulker deal."
"Also how long has it been since you obtained your powers?" I looked at the floor and thought.
"Almost two months." We stayed chatting with Skulker for a while until the alarm clock went off and we ended up going to school without any sleep, not unusual.
"Remember twins you need to work and try to pay attention in school. Otherwise you won't get into a good college." Elle and I brushed her off as we walked toward Sam and Tucker.
"Hey, how was patrolling last night? I heard you were out until past midnight."
"It was fine. Just a few nameless blobs and a dog." Sam and Tucker gave me questioning looks but the bell cut them off as they were about to say something. School after that was relatively uneventful. The only thing that happened was Boxy showed up and after everyone fled we just sucked him into a thermos. Once we got home we went on patrol again.
"I haven't seen anything all day. I don't think that anything is going to show up." A blast shot past me and I whirled around to see a girl in red armor flying on a hi-tech board that would make Tucker drool.
"Say good-bye Phantom."
"Which Phantom? News flash there's two of us." Danielle rolled her eyes at the newbie hunter.
"Both of you are going down. You ruined my life and now you're gonna pay." Without another word the wannabe ghost hunter fired and was nowhere near hitting us, and we didn't even move. I held back a smirk as she regained her footing on her hoverboard. Another blast was fired and this time it was more on target. "I'm going to get you Phantoms. If it's the last thing I do." With that she flew off, leaving me and a very confused Danielle behind.
"Ok. What was that about?"
"I have no idea. And honestly I don't care. As long as that wannabe is gone I don't care where she went." I shrugged and floated down to the street where Sam and Tucker were just running down the block toward us.
"Guys what happened?"
"Oh nothing much. Ghosts, a new wannabe ghost hunter tried to kill us. You know the usual." Their eyes widened at the kill us part and we just shrugged and brushed it off. Tucker looked at us with a sad expression as Sam just turned her face away. They saw us die once and it almost destroyed them. I just don't know if they can handle it again.

When we arrived back at home Vlad was sitting in the living room chatting away with Jack. "All I'm saying Vladdy is that if those ghost flies show up again they're going to regret showing up in Amity Park in the first place."
"As intriguing as that sounds, Jack I really must be going home. It was nice catching up with you after all these years." We rushed up to our rooms before Vlad could leave and we hid in the closet. The door downstairs clicked shut as we waited in fear. A blue mist escaped our mouths and we waited to see if the door to our bedroom would open. The silence was deafening and we dared to look out of the closet. No footsteps, no yelling, no screams, just silence. We transformed to our ghost alter egos and flew out through the roof. Outside we heard screams from downtown. The scene when we got there was gruesome to say the least. And right in the middle of the chaos was a blue vampire like ghost. His hair was styled upwards like horns and he had on a very tacky suit that practically screamed super villain.
"You know I thought the Box Ghost was as pathetic as they got, but you. You're just sad. I mean come on you couldn't be more obvious could you?" The vampire turned toward us.
"I have no time for children. Now get out of my way." A blast of pink-purple energy shot toward us, which we intercepted with our own blasts of green energy.
"Nice trick, do you do birthdays?" The vampire glowered at Elle and smirked.
"You'll regret that girlie. I am Plasmius and you are nothing but pathetic children trying to play hero." He raised his arms in a cross like shape and then there were two of him.
"Let's see how you fare in a real battle." With that the ghost- Plasmius- lunged at us with his hands blazing. We shot blast after blast at the ghost and his duplicate as he knocked us into buildings and the road.
"Give up already. You can't win."
"Not a chance you Dracula knock-off!" We flew straight at him, tackling him through a billboard and into the ground.
"You may have won this battle, but you certainly aren't winning the war." He turned invisible and flew off leaving us beaten, sore and tired. We phased back into our bedroom to try and sleep and heal.
