Chapter 24
Johnny fell to the ground unconscious. Danny stood there rubbing his knuckles. Ember looked at him with a shocked expression. He noticed this. "what?" he asked. she practically almost screamed. "you have ice powers?" she asked. Danny smiled. "well where else do you think I got your hair tie?" he replied. Ember stood there awestruck. Danny then turned to see kitty and skulker coming out of the ring. "nice job to both of you." Ember said smiling. They both smiled back. Skulker took a look at johnny and walked up to get a closer look. He looked at Danny smiling. "your handiwork?" he asked. Danny nodded. "he needed to chill out for a moment." He replied. Ember couldn't help snickering at that.
Skulker stood up and looked at his friends. "so where to now that school is over?" he asked. Kitty smiled. "well I have one idea skulker." She said walking up to him slowly. Danny got the idea and motioned to Ember that they should get out of there. "wow those two are something." Ember said as they walked the halls. "yep." Danny said nodding in agreement. He walked up to his locker and turned to Ember. "so what are your plans for this weekend?" he asked turning the combonation. Ember smiled. "well stay home listen to my music play my guitar." She said listing everything off. Danny smiled. "well wanna come over Friday night? he asked opening the door. "you know like a….date?" Embers heart leapt. "whats going on Friday?" she asked. Danny smiled. "well my dad is having a fundraiser at his place. Its kinda like a party." He said taking his things out.
Ember looked down saddened. Danny noticed this. "something wrong?" he asked. Ember looked up with a shy expression. "well ive never been to a party before." She said rubbing the back of her neck. Danny looked at her with a shocked look. "you've never been to a party at all?" he asked picking up the stuff he dropped. Ember nodded her head. Danny shut his locker door and smiled. "well I insist you come to this one it'll be fun." He said. ember thought about it for a moment until she smiled and nodded. "okay ill come to your party or fundraiser." She said laughing. Danny smiled. "okay first off do you have a dress of some kind?" he asked. Ember looked at him confused.
Danny realized at that moment he hadn't explained everything. "oh right it's a costume ball." He said smiling. Ember looked at him more puzzled. "Halloween isn't until another two months." She said confused. Danny smiled. "when your family is half ghosts then you learn to appreciate Halloween and dressing up a lot more." He said making Ember smile. "so what do I wear?" she asked. Danny smiled. "anything will work." He said putting his hand on her shoulder making her blush. The bell rang then for dannys battle. As soon as Danny was out of sight Ember ran as fast as she could to find kitty. "I need advice." She thought to herself.
Later after school
"so you need advice on what to wear at a costume ball?" kitty asked giggling on their way to the ghost zone mall. Embers hair fumed. "im serious I really want to impress him." She said in a hurt voice. Kitty smiled putting her hands on Embers shoulders. "trust me coming from a girl who dated Danny a year ago I know just what to do." She said pulling Ember towards a huge building. As they entered Ember could only stare in shock at all the stores in that area. "wow." She muttered under her breath. Kitty smiled. "I know right so many stores and so little time." She said cheerfully. Ember could only roll her eyes. "Danny used to date her?" she thought in her head. "so where should we start?" she asked brushing a little bit of hair out of her eyes. Kitty smiled. "well first off Danny likes for a girl to be herself on a date so…" she looked around until her eyes landed on her target. Embers eyes followed her gaze until her eyes widened. "are you serious?" she asked. kitty nodded dragging Ember in.
Danny dodged and flew backwards as a black ghost blasted away at him. He smiled. "much better than what I would've put up with at school" he said freezing the ghost. He then raised his other hand and blasted away the ghoul into remains of ectoplasm. "hey Danny." Danny turned to see Danielle standing there with Vlad. He flew up and phased through the wall. "yeah whats up?" he said nervous. Vlad smiled. "Danielle told me you invited miss mclain on a date." He said questioningly.
Danny smiled. "yep I did." He said popping his neck. Vlad smiled. "well look I think its time we had a little father son talk." Vlad requested. Dannys face grimaced. "you see daniel when a boy and a girl love eachother very much..." danny fell backwards on his back. "dad cmon its just a date. Nothing like that is going to happen." He said shocked. Danielle and Vlad laughed as Danny glared at them with an icy look. Vlad wiped a tear away smiling. "oh cmon now Daniel were just giving you a hard time is all." He said walking to the table next to him. He came back with a suit bag. I thought you could use this for the party on Friday." He said. Danny opened it up and smiled. He hugged his dad and laughed. "thanks dad." He ran up to put it in his room. Danielle looked up at her dad smiling. "he likes her doesn't he?" she asked. Vlad smiled. "yes he does." He then smirked at his daughter. "but he better not start slacking off on his training because of a little puppy love." He said causing Danielle to giggle.
Johnny woke up head throbbing and body aching all over. "well good hes awake." He looked up in shock to see two ghosts in front of him. One was a girl with a black tank top with grey sweat pants and the other was a bolt shaped boy ghost who had a strong muscular build to him. Johnny looked at them both with confusion. "who are you two?" he asked cautiously. The girl walked up to him smiling. "Desiree Asari." She said smiling. She then pointed to a ghost behind her. "this is my partner Vortex." The boy nodded towards johnny and he did the same. He looked around to see they were on a floating island in the ghost zone. "so why am I here?" he asked. Desiree grinned wickedly. "lets just say we all have a problem with Danny Plasmius."
