I AM SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SORRY! Remember that annotative bibliography I had to do for English? Well, it's done now! But afterwards I didn't have the motivation (or inspiration) to write so again SORRY. Even though this chapter is like a week late, it's here now at least! So you can just skip all this and jump into the good stuff. (Not cocain, Don't do drugs kids.)

FowlFanKid13: I'm so glad you like this so much! And as to satisfy your "ever-anxious brain," voila! Another chapter! And seriously? You shouldn't be reading this, I'm a bad influence!

Born-From-Black-Lightning: Danny and his parents are disconnected right now, and you will see what this does in later chapters (though I cannot say when) and it will be explained in said chapter. You are just going to have to wait to find out…..*evil laughter*

AmandaSkittles7: I know, soooooooo much fun. *sarcasm* I've had my fair share of them and let me say that I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy, and I hate a lot of people. To see how it all plays out, however, requires you to continue to read, and oh! Would you look at that! A new chapter update! What a coincidence. *deadpan*

Well, don't forget to review and ask me questions! I'm always ready to answer them! On with the story!

Oh...yeah...need to to do the disclaimer...uh...I don't own anything….all rights to Butch Hartman...am I missing anything? Nope. Well, you've waited long enough, READ.

Chapter 16

Sam, in fact, did end up giving Danny a kiss after he had gotten dressed in a new, knee length, green silk chiton and a black peplos over it, which was held together by gold peronai holding it at his shoulders and a woven gold thread belt around his waist. Danny had been persistent, and despite his respect for his girlfriend's boundaries, couldn't help asking and virtually begging. Eventually Sam lost to a large pair of baby blue puppy dog eyes. Despite her tough girl, she always had a weakness for those damn puppy dog eyes. She thought it was somewhat childish, but then always remembered that this was Danny. Of course he would. Even with his hero-complex, he was still a child at heart, and was still a teenage boy.

She still had much more self-control than Danny apparently, and after a quick peck, opened the door to let the others in, smirking once more as she could practically feel Danny pout behind her.

Now, with a more hopeful approach, they were heading towards the dinning hall again. Danny, with his astounding internal clock, had told them it was time to go not long after he had gotten dressed. Dani was holding onto Danny's left hand tightly, with Sam grasping her boyfriend's right hand. Valerie and Tucker stood just behind them, listening intently for anyone behind them.

Knowing the corridor like the backs of their hands, they found the hall quickly. The Fentons weren't standing outside, thankfully, and they could hear lyres, kitharas, and aulos' playing softly inside. They smiled, already feeling at home in a place that most would consider a nightmare. Sam squeezed Danny's hand, her ring rubbing against his fingers.

It's show time. Danny though.

And with that they walked in, heads high and confidence in their figures, as if they were mortal Gods, royalty in waiting.

Like nothing had happened.

Nathan had to be honest with himself…

He still liked Valerie.

He knew she was with Tucker, and that they would never happen. He had a feeling of that since they met. The romantic love story he had longed for would never happen. Still, he wondered sometimes what it would be like if they had gotten together, if he ever had the chance with her.

Nathan signed and looked at Valerie again, and noticed how her and Tucker's arms were linked together and the genuine smile that lit up her face as she talked to him. Danny, Sam, and the other little girl that seemed to cling on to them were vividly talking to the large four-armed ghost, Pandora, he recalled.

Despite his love-sickness, Nathan couldn't help but slightly smile at seeing Val and Tuck together.

He really does complete her...maybe it is time I moved on. He thought.

Nathan looked around the room and caught sight of a ghost who was dressed in a pale blue chiton with even paler green skin, and seemed lonely standing in the far corner away from everyone. He could feel something tugging at him to talk to the ghost, and the little voice at the back at his head urged him to go. Well, I guess if Valerie can talk to ghosts, then so can I.

Nathan gathered his confidence and walked over towards the ghost who had finally noticing him and looked in surprise at the human boy, but there were no signs of fear or hatred directed at him. Maybe the Fentons were wrong about ghosts...

After a minute, he stopped in front of the boy and smiled kindly. "Hi. I'm Nathan."

The boy blinked, still slightly surprised, but then smiled at him. "I'm Icarus."

Nathan couldn't help himself from smiling even more, for the first time on this trip to hell, he felt...safe? Maybe...but there must be a better word for it… Nathan thought, but as he looked at Icarus, seeing his soft, brown eyes (which Nathan honestly thought was a bit strange for a ghost) he abandoned the word search and continued to talk to Icarus. That doesn't matter right now, though. I can always figure it out later.

The weird feeling in his chest could wait.

The hall was much bigger than Star had originally thought. The large marble room was even more beautiful, if it was possible, than when she had originally walked in. The table had been set with silver plants and cups, with a few places near what she assumed was the head of the table that had gold plates and goblets. Beautiful and extravagant plants lined the room and table, giving color to the walls. he hadn't even noticed the large windows on the far side of the room that looked out into the massive garden. Seriously, that thing surrounds the entire place! Star though.

At the moment, she was standing across from the door, talking to Kwan, and could still barely see Paulina flirting with one of the guards on the other side of the room. The large ghost from earlier was talking to Danny and a few others who were also dressed in regal looking attire. Then again, everyone was.

Damn...Danny knows a lot of people…

What really got her attention was Sam and the little girl that looked so much like Danny. She had Sam's nose though.

At the moment, they were talking near one of the windows close to her, when Sam waved her hand. Star thought she might have been seeing things, but thought that the plants by her moved. She couldn't have thought that though, the little girl laughed and clapped her hands excitedly, and Star had seen her do that earlier, just before the incident with Danny.

What did happen then? She thought, her train of thought drifting back onto what had happened earlier.

"-ar...Star!"

Star broke out of her trance and blushed when she saw Kwan leaning in, eyes full of confusion.

"Sorry." She said.

Kwan smiled slightly. "It's okay," He said, "But you've been spacing out a lot. Anything wrong?"

Star couldn't help sighing slightly dreamly. She had always looked up to Kwan, mostly from her childlike fantasy that a man needed to protect a woman. It was stupid, she thought sometimes, but couldn't help imagine what it would be like, with him as her knight in shining armor on a white steed riding into the sunset. She watched too many movies.

"Nothing is, like, wrong...I'm just wondering what's going on. It's just so weird!" She said, fiddling with the bracelet on her arm. It was safe to discuss this around Kwan, he knew she was somewhat smarter than she made out to be, being the same was with him, and was a lot nicer as well. They were both the same in a way, seemingly better in every way, but instead were second just because of appearance and money to their name. They both hated second place.

"I know. Danny used to be this freaky kid in our class that hung out with weirdos, but here it's like he's king or something." Kwan said.

Star sighed, wondering if she should tell him what she had seen earlier. Maybe she should ask Valerie, she would know.

She didn't get to say anything though, her thoughts interrupted by the voice of the large, four armed ghost speaking near the head of the table.

"Welcome. We are here today to celebrate the arrival of Daniel, Sam, Tucker, and Valerie, and their...acquaintances," Said Pandora, hesitating at what to refer the class and the Fentons as. Star could see Maddie scowled. "Tonight, we feast in honor of them! Now, let us eat!"

The ghosts cheered afterwards then began to move the table. Servants that had previously been watching from the side of the room now were directing people where to go.

Star looked nervously at Kwan before beginning to walk slowly towards the table, fiddling with the bracelet once again.

The feast had begun.

Oh Kwan...you have no idea. Well, anyways, this chapter is done! Sorry...again...for not posting in a week, but I'll definitely get one up next week! I have three days off school for the holiday so I can get at least one up then! Heads up! The next chapter is going to be the feast! What will happen….You'll just have to wait and see!

Anyways, what do you think will happen at the feast, or even later on?

Do you have any questions yourself? Ask away! I want to answer stuff! I'm bored. And don't forget to favorite and review and all those good things!

I'll see you next time! But until then, I'll be floating around...doing nothing...stabbing people...wait, what. You didn't see that last part. Well, anyways, PEACE!
