Here it is, the conclusion to the Doctor's Disorders adaptation. Those of you who thought the last chapter was a little too short, today is your lucky day. A LOT of stuff happens here.

Chapter 7: A Ghostly Plague: Part 2

Tucker and Salem are hiding behind the bushes as they continue to watch the guards standing in front of the entrance of North Mercy Hospital. Tucker pokes his head out to take a quick glance and then immediately squats back down to his safe spot.

"Danny and Sabrina have been gone for a while now," the tech geek finally says.

"Well, actually, it's been ten minutes," Salem corrects.

"That's still too long," Tucker argues. "I hate being near hospitals for more than a minute."

The cat then shakes his head, "Unbelievable, here you are worried about the ghost kid and Sabrina's well-being, and instead of doing something about it, you're just gonna stand there and cower like a little mouse afraid to exit his little hole. Some best friend you are."

Tucker looks down at Salem and scowls, "You know, I've had it up to here with you dogging on me. Whenever Danny is out there fighting ghosts, I ALWAYS have his back. I am many things, but a coward ain't one of them. I'm willing to put my personal fears aside if it means helping my friends."

"Alright tough guy, prove it. Show me that you're not some incompetent fool."

Tucker takes one more look at the hospital. What was now a look of reluctance became a look of determination. He looks back down at Salem, "Fine, you want me to prove I'm not a coward, I will." Tucker then leaps from his hiding spot and approaches the two guards. He pulls out a can of his "Foley" cologne and begins to spray himself with it, causing the guards to take a whiff of it and start coughing.

Salem also started coughing, "Ugh, really? Do you HAVE to put more of that stuff on? Now I won't be able to smell anything for a week. Thanks kid."

"Now who's being a wuss?" Tucker rhetorically asks with a smirk. He then takes the lipstick/ectoblaster and fires it at the guards, knocking them out. The tech geek raises the weapon in the air, "Danny, Sabrina, don't worry, help is on the way…whether they want it or not." With that, he enters the hospital.

Salem looks on, sniffs and wipes an imaginary tear from his eye, "Our boy has officially become a man." He too enters the building.

Sabrina begins to come to, only to be blinded by a bright light. Once her eyesight became more focused, she sees that she's strapped to a hospital bed, with belt buckles wrapped around her torso and legs. The half-witch looks to her side and sees a bunch of utensils that could only be used for surgery.

"Ah, you're finally awake," says an adult female voice.

Sabrina lifts her head and right in front of her was Spectra with her assistant Bertrand standing right beside her with an evil smirk. The platinum blonde opens her right hand in an attempt to conjure up her wand…but nothing happens.

Spectra continues to speak, "Ooh, sorry kiddo, I'm afraid you're still feeling the effects of the nerve gas I doused you with, which means you won't be doing any more of your little magic tricks for the next few hours."

Sabrina sighs and she lays her head back down, staring at the ceiling above her, "So is this the part where you introduce yourself and reveal your evil plot?"

Spectra grins, "You want me to cut to the chase huh? Very well. My name is Penelope Spectra." She then motions her hand to the petite man beside her. "And over here is my trusty assistant Bertrand."

Sabrina begins to think for a moment, "Ah, right, you were the ghost who posed as the guidance counselor for Casper High that one time and tried to feed off of the negative emotions of all the teenagers there."

Spectra lets out a mock gasp, "Give this girl a medal, though I'm sure your half-ghost boyfriend helped contribute to your sudden knowledge of yours truly. I'm kinda flattered that he mentioned me at all. Speaking of Danny, how is he? It's been a while since our last confrontation. Doesn't matter, I know he's here too, so it's only a matter of time when he and I meet face to face once again. Hopefully by that point, I would have already succeeded in my main goal."

"So you were the one who sent that ghost mosquito to infect the school."

"That's correct."

"And you had your assistant here disguise himself as a doctor and bring all of the infected students here so you can…what? So you can have another all you eat emotional buffet?"

Spectra's smirk grew even wider, "Actually, I'm aiming for something bigger." She then floats over to a nearby locker and opens it. Inside was a humanoid female body, with short red hair and a skin-tight black and green suit. "You like it?" the emotion eater asks. "It's a brand new body I'm constructing, one that is fashioned by some of the best teen genetics."

"And how exactly are you gonna achieve this goal?"

Spectra gives out a mischievous grin and she hovers across the room to a big round door. With the press of a button, the door opens revealing a tunnel surrounded by green lights.

"With this machine, I'll be able to siphon off the best qualities of each of those kids, Jazz's brains, Dash's muscles, Paulina's nearly flawless skin…"

"Wait," Sabrina interrupts. "Nearly flawless? It's that mole she has isn't it?"

"Isn't it obvious?" Spectra deadpans.

"I knew it."

"Oh, but there's also something a little extra to my plan."

"Yeah? And what's that?"

The shadowy ghost floats over to Sabrina and pokes her nose, "Why you of course."

The half-witch raises an eyebrow, "What about me?"

"You're the reason I came up with this plan in the first place. Ever since you came to town, word about you began to spread throughout the Ghost Zone. At first I thought it was too good to be true. I mean an actual witch? Here in Amity? And yet here you are. While I knew you wouldn't be infected by the Ghost Fever, I also knew that Danny would be foolish enough to bring you right into my hands. Sure, I could try to use HIS DNA which is a good contender in its own right, but a teenage witch like you is just what I need to create the perfect body. Your youth and the sheer raw power of your magic would make an excellent addition. Not only would I look young and beautiful, but I will also be an unstoppable force to be reckoned with. No one would be able to stop me."

Sabrina narrows her eyes, "Except Danny. Once he finds out about this, you won't even get the chance to go through with your plans."

"Mmmm, he can TRY to stop me, but by the time he does figure everything out, it will be too late. Also, you already know how you witches can easily overpower us ghosts with your magic. That poor boy wouldn't stand a chance. Oh, but I especially can't wait to see the look on his face when he sees that, once I drain you of your beauty and magic, you'll be nothing but a lifeless, withered husk."

Sabrina's eyes widened at what she just said.

Spectra's sadistic grin returns, "Well, what did you think was gonna happen to you once I have my new body?"

Meanwhile, as this conversation was going on, Salem is seen peeking through the doorway listening in to everything the emotion eater had just said. As soon as he takes cover to avoid being scene, he now has a look of fear in his eyes, "Oh, no."

After reuniting with Jazz, who unfortunately ended up being a ghostly head in a jar, Danny begins to look for Sam and Sabrina. From what his sister told him, the doctors aren't doing anything to help these teens and now he's more determined than ever to shut this facility down. He was so busy looking around, he didn't realize someone was walking in front of him until he collides with that person, sending them both into the ground.

As Danny rubs his forehead, he sees who he just bumped into, "Tucker?"

"Danny," the tech geek responds. "I came in here to help you."

"Wait, YOU snuck into a hospital?"

"Only to prove to Sabrina's cat that I'm not a coward. Also, don't say hospital, or I will regret coming in here and run right back out."

Then the two boys hear a voice calling to him, "Danny? Tucker?"

The halfa recognizes that voice, "Sam? Where are you?"

"Up here."

Danny and Tucker both look up and see Sam floating in the air.

Danny blinks upon seeing his Goth friend, "Uh, wow."

"Believe me, I think this is just as weird to me as it is to you."

"Ha, you call ME and airhead," Tucker laughs.

"You know you should REALLY consider all the vile things I can do to you from up here."

As Tucker moves to the side in fear, Danny asks, "Have you seen Sabrina by any chance?"

"A while ago, but then I fell asleep and when I woke up she was gone. There's something evil going on around here."

"It's a hospital Sam, there's always something evil going on around here," Tucker comments.

"There you are," a random new voice calls out.

Danny looks behind him and sees Salem walking towards him and panting. "I've…been looking all over for you."

The halfa walks towards the cat, "Salem? You're here too?"

"Yeah, figured I tag along and make sure Rambo over here doesn't get himself into trouble."

Tucker scowls, "I had it under control."

Meanwhile Sam stares at Salem with wide eyes and she points at him, "The cat is talking. Why is the cat talking?"

"Says the girl who's hovering in the air," Salem responds as he raises an eye. "Look we don't have much time. Sabrina's in real danger."

Danny now begins to look concerned, "What kind of danger?"

"This whole hospital, all these kids being here, it was all just one big ploy. That doctor guy is nothing but a lackey and it's this shadowy looking ghost chick who really runs the show around here. SHE plans to feed off of the infected teens so she can make a new body for herself…with Sabrina being the main course."

Danny begins to take in what Salem is telling him, but then he realizes something, "Wait, shadowy ghost chick?" And then it dawns on him Sam and Tucker, "Spectra."

"She's after Sabrina's magic," says Sam. "If she succeeds, that can be REALLY bad. She would be unstoppable."

"It gets worse," Salem continues. "If she goes through with her plan, not only will she become a magical force of nature, but it will also be curtains for Sabrina."

Danny, Tucker and Sam now have a look of shock.

The halfa then lowers his head in guilt. He knew leaving her here alone was a bad idea, and he blames himself for putting his friend in peril. His hands form tight fists. He then looks back at Salem with an angry look on his face and his eyes having that neon green glow, "Where are they now?"

Meanwhile Spectra begins to cart Sabrina into the machine. As this is happening, the half-witch says, "You'll never get away with this."

"Oh, but I will. But look on the bright side, at least you won't be here when I completely destroy Danny with my newfound powers. In fact, it probably wouldn't even be a fight. All that guilt and despair he will feel when he realizes that he failed to save someone he cares about…My mouth is watering just thinking about it. He would be begging me to end him…and I will gladly put him out of his misery."

Sabrina just couldn't believe what she was hearing. Not only does she plan on using her magic to hurt Danny, but she plans on hurting him emotionally too.

"Y…You're a monster."

Spectra grins, "I'll gladly take that as a compliment. It's been nice knowing you."

With that, she shoves Sabrina into the machine, closes the door and activates it. As she watches the device begin to boot up, she is startled by a loud crash. Spectra looks behind her and sees Bertrand lying against a broken shelf, groaning.

"What the hell?"

As the emotion eater wonders who laid out her assistant, she got her answer in the form of Danny Phantom's fist in her face sending her crashing through a nearby window.

The halfa, with a serious look on his face, turns to Bertrand who was starting to come to. He grabs him by the collar and shoves him against the wall.

"WHERE IS SHE?" he yells. His green eyes glowing very brightly.

Bertrand takes a good look at the halfa and realizes he's not playing around. He points to the machine behind Danny.

Danny looks over his shoulder and drops Spectra's assistant.

That was when Tucker and Salem enter the room and the tech geek points the lipstick/ectoblaster at Bertrand, making sure he doesn't make any sudden movements. Unfortunately, Spectra's right hand man just smiles and phases through the floor, making his escape.

Danny phases through the door of the machine and inside sees Sabrina lying in a stretcher.

Sabrina cranes her neck behind her and sees the halfa, "Danny, hurry."

Thinking quickly Danny rushes to release his friend. Suddenly, all the green lights surrounding them begin to turn red and a small vacuum nozzle emerges from the ceiling.

Danny sees this and narrows his eyes, "Okay Spectra, you want special genes so badly, how about generations worth of good old fashioned Fenton genes."

He then takes out his father's handkerchief and lets the vacuum suck it in. Then he unbuckles Sabrina from the stretcher, picks her up bridal style and phase out of the machine. As Danny puts the half-witch down, he walks in front of her. He sees that she has her head down, not even looking him in the eye.

"Sabrina, are you…"

But before the halfa could finish his sentence, Sabrina begins to hug him tightly. This caught Danny off guard, but then he realizes that not only did his friend go through a life-threatening situation, leaving her utterly terrified, but Spectra is also known to really get in your head with just her words. With that, Danny begins to hug her back.

In an attempt to lighten the mood, he says, "Tucker was right, hospitals do suck."

That got a chuckle out of Sabrina.

The two break from their embrace and Danny asks again, "Are you okay?"

Wiping a tear from her eye, Sabrina finally answers, "Now that you're here, yeah."

Danny nods and then turns to Tucker and Salem, "Get her as far away from here as you can."

"You don't have to tell me twice," says Tucker.

Salem then walks over to Sabrina and says in an uncharacteristic tone, "Come on kid, let's get you home."

The platinum blonde just nods.

Danny watches as Sabrina, Salem and Tucker leave the room, and then immediately turns to Spectra who had just emerged from the broken window.

As she rubs her jaw, she says, "Is this how you normally greet someone you haven't seen in a while?"

Danny doesn't say anything, he just looks at the emotion eater with a scowl.

Spectra begins to smirk, "What, no witty remark? None of your usual childish repertoire? Wow, I must have REALLY pissed you off for trying to suck the life out of your little girlfriend. You care so deeply about her don't you?"

"…If you hurt her in any way…"

"You'll what, kill me? First of all honey, I'm already dead, and second of all, you and I both know you don't have what it takes to cross that line."

"Oh, I know that," says Danny. "I was just going to say that I'll break every bone in your body before sending you back to the Ghost Zone. Ghosts can still feel pain, am I right?"

"Mmm, I should see this side of you more often. All that hate and anger oozing out of you is just so delicious." Spectra then looks at the locker where her suit was stored. "But enough of that." She then hovers over to the locker, opens it and then takes out the suit. She puts it on and it begins to form into a brand new body for her. "You and I have a score to settle."

Danny gets into a fighting stance, "I'm ready when you are."

Tucker, Sabrina and Salem make a break for the exit.

As they were running Sabrina stops for a moment, "Wait."

Tucker and Salem also stop to which Salem asks, "What's the hold up?"

"We have to go back."

Then Tucker says, "Uh, didn't Danny tell us to get you as far away from here as possible?"

But before the half-witch could explain herself, Bertrand appears in front of them. "Going somewhere?" the petite ghost says with an evil grin.

"Yeah, we were just seeing ourselves out," says Tucker. "So move it shorty."

Suddenly, Bertrand's eyes begin to glow red and his body shapeshifts. After a few seconds, he turns into his "Doctor Bert Rand" persona only with a more hulk-like appearance, as well as a brain sticking out of this skull. He then begins to conjure up a large scalpel

"Whelp, it's been nice knowing you guys," Salem says with wide eyes.

Tucker, with a look of determination, reaches into his pocket and pulls out the lipstick/ectoblaster, "Don't move, I mean it. This thing moisturizes and keeps your lips from getting chapped up."

Unfortunately, Bertrand was not intimidated by this and he uses the scalpel to swipe the weapon out of Tucker's hands. He then grabs the tech geek and slams him on the ground causing a shockwave that knocks Sabrina and Salem away.

The scalpel then turns into a syringe, "Now this is gonna hurt you WAY more than it's gonna hurt me."

"How about neither of us get hurt. Isn't that an option?" Tucker rhetorically asks, with a look of terror.

A voice begins to call out to the tech geek, "Hey kid."

Tucker looks to his side and sees Salem with his paw on the lipstick/ectoblaster. The cat then shoves it over to him where he was able to catch it. Tucker then points the weapon at Bertrand and fires it, sending him backwards and slamming him against the wall. Betrand reverts back to his original form and he looks up at the approaching teens and cat.

Tucker looks over at Salem, "Thanks for the save."

"To be honest, you were kinda asking for it when you called him shorty," the cat says with a smirk.

"…I thought we were cool man."

Sabrina then pulls out the Fenton Thermos and points it at the petite ghost, "Don't worry, your boss will be joining you soon enough."

She then opens the cap and Bertrand is sucked in.

"Huh, something tells me Danny might need that against Spectra," Tucker comments

"Which is why we need to go back," Sabrina confirms.

The three head back to where the halfa is.

Somewhere, in a random hospital room, Dash, who is constantly fading in and out due to his ghost powers, is watching a soap opera on TV. The male character is about to confess his love to the female character, when suddenly Spectra crashes through the ceiling, destroying the TV in the process. Danny swoops down, and the two ghosts exchange in ectoblasts and punches before the emotion eater spears the halfa through a wall and into the hallway.

Meanwhile Dash looks at the demolished television and groans, "And he was about to tell her…You complete me."

Outside in the hall, Danny flies towards Spectra to deliver another punch, but she moves out of the way and then forms an ecto construct of a hand that grabs Danny and slams him into the ground. The halfa tries to get up but is stopped by Spectra who plants her foot onto his chest. Sabrina, Salem and Tucker all arrive at the scene.

"Danny," the half-witch calls out.

Danny, who is still on the ground, moves his head and sees his friend standing there, "Sabrina, what are you doing here? I thought I told you guys to get out of here."

Salem and Tucker on the other hand sees Spectra in her new form…and they are impressed to say the least.

Salem gives out a whistle, "Me-ow."

While Tucker says, "I AM in a modeling agency."

Sabrina just rolls her eyes.

Spectra smiles proudly, "It's nice right? Smart, beautiful…deadly. Unfortunately, it is incomplete. It's missing that special ingredient, and lucky for me, she's right here in front of me."

Sabrina backs up a little bit. They way Spectra is looking at her right now gives her the creeps.

"Don't...nngh...you dare lay a hand on her," Danny says as he struggles to break free.

"Just give up Danny, I have you beat, and now I'm gonna make you watch as I suck every last ounce of your girlfriend's li…Wait, why do I feel funny?"

Upon hearing that, Danny smirks, "Finally."

Spectra's body then begins to swell up to the point where she's now overweight. Her build matching a certain ghost hunter.

"Wha…What's happening to me? Why do I have the sudden urge to talk about ghosts? Why do I have an obsession with chocolate fudge cakes?" the emotion eater asks.

"Yeeeah, I'll be taking back my "meow" compliment now," Salem comments.

Danny, having freed himself from Spectra's grasp, finally explains himself, "While I was busy getting Sabrina out of that machine I figured I give you a small DNA substitute for that new body of yours…Courtesy of my dad's nose."

And then, Spectra begins to turn into a snot creature.

That was when Danny remarks, "You know, I was going to make a "you blew it" comment, but I'm not going to."

"Thank God," Sabrina mutters.

Spectra looks at herself in sheer horror and then looks right at Danny with a look of malice, "You…You did this. Why do you ALWAYS have to ruin everything? I could have been the most power ghost on the planet? I could have had eternal youth. But no, you just HAD to come in and foil my plans."

"What, no evil monologue? None of your usual sadistic repertoire?" Danny mockingly asks with a smirk. "Wow, I must have REALLY pissed you off didn't I?"

With that Spectra yells out in anger and charges at the halfa. Danny dodges a punch from her and delivers one of his own…only to have his hand get stuck on her face.

Sabrina puts her hand over her mouth in disgust, "I think I'm gonna hurl."

Spectra then grabs Danny and slams him against the wall, "You're dead kid, but not before your classmates go first when the virus reaches its final stage."

As the halfa struggles, he says, "What are you talking about? I thought the ghost fever those mosquitos infected everyone with isn't deadly."

The emotion eater smirks, "Sure, only the more common ones. But these ones are different. This particular type of mosquito comes from the deepest part of the netherrealm, where no ghost…or witch…wouldn't dare go to. They are VERY deadly, and in the next few minutes, these insects will be so far into those poor kids, that there's NO way you can get them out. And what happens after that? Well…use your imagination."

"Oh no," says Sabrina. "And Aunt Zelda still isn't done with the vaccine. We don't have much time."

After looking at Sabrina for a brief moment, Tucker's look of determination returns. He turns back to his friend, "Actually Sabrina, we might have an alternative."

"We do?" both the half-witch and Salem ask.

The tech geek now smirks, "Yeah, we sure do." He then flees the scene.

Danny fires and ectoblast to Spectra's face, forcing her to let go of him.

After staggering for a moment, the emotion eater says, "Alright, let's boogie."

Sabrina and Salem both groan.

Danny pinches the bridge of his nose, "See, and THIS is why I tried to avoid the "blew it" pun."

Spectra lunges at the halfa.

Meanwhile, Tucker is seen crawling through the air vents of the hospital. He then comes across a console that can adjust the air flow of the AC. After turning the dial to "full blast" the tech geek reaches into his backpack and pulls out his "Foley" spray.

"Whoever says, "Odor isn't everything" has never met Tucker Foley. Here goes."

He then begins to spray through the vents, causing the odor of his "cologne" to permeate throughout the hospital."

Spectra delivers another punch to Danny, sending him flying into a large cart full of bedsheets.

Sabrina couldn't help but feel frustrated upon watching all of this. If she wasn't still affected by the knockout gas from earlier, this fight would have been over by now. She feels so helpless.

The emotion eater approaches the halfa, "Any last words?"

But before Danny could say anything, he begins to smell something awful, "Yeah, do you smell gym shorts and gingersnaps?"

Spectra smells something too, "Actually, I smell tennis shoes and fudge nutters. Ugh, what is that ghastly odor?"

Salem smells something very similar to wet dog, and that was when he put two and two together. He then grins, "Well played kid."

Then, something miraculous happens, all the ghost mosquitos begin to exit the bodies of all the infected students, clearly repulsed by the stench of Foley.

Spectra looks on in shock as she sees her insects flee through the hallway, "How is that possible?"

As she has her back turned, this gave Danny the opportunity to deliver one more massive blow. He punches Spectra, making her splatter all over the walls and floor of the hall.

"Danny," Sabrina calls out.

Danny turns to where his friend is and sees she has the Fenton Thermos in hand. The half-witch tosses it to her friend in which he uses it to suck up all of Spectra's gooey remains as well as the remaining ghost mosquitoes in the area. He then closes the lid and reverts back to his human form. Tucker meets back up with the group who compliments him on a job well done.

"Tucker, that was amazing," says Sabrina.

"Way to come through in the clutch Tuck," says Danny.

"I'll admit, you did good kid," says Salem.

"Yeah, how about that?" Tucker says in a confident tone. "My first trip to the hospital, and I'm the only one who DIDN'T get hurt."

Then, from out of nowhere, Sam falls right on top of the tech geek, her ghost flight officially gone.

"Sorry," Sam says with a look of anxiety.

Salem just bursts into laughter.

The next day, the Fentons, along with the Spellmans and Sam all visit Tucker at the Amity Hospital to congratulate him on a job well done the previous night.

Jack was the first to speak, "Tucker, we like to thank you for getting our Jazz out of that awful hospital." The ghost hunter then chuckles, "Although, I had to tell the authorities that the whole ghost plot thing sounds pretty farfetched, huh baby?"

Maddie also laughs, "Yeah, I mean come on, it's impossible for humans to have ghost powers."

"Well, you never know," Zelda chimes in. She looks over at Danny. "You think you might know everything about the supernatural, but there may be some things out there we have yet to discover." She then gives the halfa a wink.

Danny just smiles at Sabrina's aunt.

"That's a fair point Zelda," says Maddie. She then turns to Jack. "Come on honey, I think Danny wants to be alone with his friends."

"Very well, see you at home son."

The Fentons make their exit.

After making sure they were gone, Zelda turns to Tucker, who is lying in a hospital bed with his right foot in a cast, "I gotta say Tucker, you are without a doubt the real hero here. You manage to find a faster way to cure the Ghost Fever."

"Yeah, we didn't even have to use your vaccine," Hilda says with a smile. "Way to make my sister feel obsolete."

"Oh hush," Zelda says as she swats her sister in the arm.

"Still, I'm REALLY sorry about your leg," Sam once again apologizes.

"I told you hospitals reek," Tucker says with a grumpy look on his face.

"Aw cheer up Tuck," says Danny. "We beat Spectra, and you will be out of the hospital in eight to ten weeks."

"Look at the bright side kid, at least you get days off from school," says Salem, who is being held in Sabrina's arms.

Suddenly, a nurse enters the room, escorting an old man in a wheelchair.

"Here's your new roommate Mr. Foley," the nurse says.

Then the old man speaks, "Hi, I'm Carl." Carl looks back at the nurse. "No need to take me to my bed, just move me over to the whippersnapper over there so I can spend the next two weeks telling him stories about the times when I was his age."

Salem then leans over to Tucker and whispers. "And would you look at that, you just made a new friend."

"When I get out of here, I'm taking you to the nearest dog pound," Tucker whispers back.

Sam then looks at her imaginary watch, "Well, would you look at the time, we should get going."

Everyone waves Tucker goodbye and leaves the room.

"Hey, WAIT!"

Carl points at a nearby TV, "See that television? Back in my day we didn't have television. We had radio."

"Oh, come on."

As Danny exits the hospital, Sabrina calls out after him, "Hey Danny, wait up."

The halfa stops for a moment to let his friend catch up. He turns around and the two teens are now facing each other.

"What's up?" Danny asks.

Sabrina grabs her left arm and bites her lip, "I…just wanted to say thanks. You know, for last night. You saved my life."

Danny smiles, "Of course, I would never let anything bad happen to you on my watch. I fact…I kind of owe you an apology."

Sabrina now looks confused, "An apology for what?"

"I knew something fishy was going on in that hospital, and I knew leaving you alone in there was a bad idea. I guess I figured since you are a witch you could hold your own and nothing bad was gonna happen. I never should have taken you for granted like that, and…and I almost lost you because of it." The halfa then lowers his head in shame.

Sabrina gives a sympathetic look and she grabs Danny by both of his shoulders, "Hey, look at me."

Danny looks back up at his friend.

"When we all left to go to that hospital, we BOTH agreed that I would go in there with you. You didn't force me to do anything. Going inside that hospital was MY choice too. Besides, you didn't know what Spectra was planning, and neither did I. How could we? Also, it's because of you that I'm still here talking to you right now. I knew you would have my back just like I had yours that night. I knew that if I got into any trouble you would be there for me. You told me earlier that I shouldn't let Spectra get to me. The same could be said about you too. You're letting her exploit your greatest fear, which is your failure to save everyone. You've been doing this for over a year now, and not once did anyone get hurt or die because of your actions. You have saved countless lives, because of you, the people of this town are still able to live their normal lives despite all the random ghost attacks. They may not notice it now, but one day they will. So don't you dare think of yourself as not being good enough…because you are."

Danny was moved by Sabrina's words. He then begins to smile, "Thanks Sabrina."

Sabrina blushes a little but smiles back, "You're welcome."

The two teens stare at each other for a moment until Hilda interrupts them, "Hey Sabrina, you ready to go home?"

"Yeah, I'll be right there," the half-witch calls out. She looks back at her friend, "Well, I'll see you later Danny, and remember what I said."

The halfa nods, "I will."

Sabrina moves past Danny and she begins to walk down the steps of the hospital entrance. However, she stops midway, which confuses the boy behind her. The half-witch lowers her head and bites her bottom lip. Then something happens that catches Danny off guard. Sabrina walks back up to him and gives him a soft kiss on the cheek. The platinum blonde then faces the dark haired boy, whose mouth is wide open at what just transpired. Sabrina just give a small smile, her freckled face now having a pink tint.

"See ya Danny."

And just like that, she runs back down the steps to meet up with her aunts and Salem. Danny looks on, mouth still agape, as he touches the cheek where his friend just kissed him. He then sports a wide grin on his face.

Spectra is defeated and it looks like Danny and Sabrina's feelings are starting to blossom. However, more trouble is on the horizon for our supernatural teens. The next time we meet, I will be adapting the first of the show's one hour specials, "Reign Storm". It's all been leading up to this...

I've been working on both this and the next chapter of Birth of the Cool simultaneously. I was able to get this one done first because I knew what direction I was going to take the story. The next chapter of Birth of the Cool will be coming, and once that's done, I will FINALLY come back to writing Hope and Responsibility and The World According to Peter Parker and Karen Starr. I have some big ideas for both of those stories...especially the former.

Be sure to leave a comment with your thoughts on the story so far. Until next time.
