This is getting good. I hope you enjoy the next chapter. Review please!
Danny, Jim, and I ran as fast as we could away from the chips. The swarm was chasing us and shooting green blasts. I quickly hid behind a police car next to the police station. The green blast shot right through the car windows. I felt the ice core inside like when Jim and I first fought together inside the mall. I quickly peeked out and blew an icy breath against the swarm. Most of the chips died and there showed a figure in the midst.
Danny's eyes widened. Jim kept his expression firm while reloading his gun and shooting at the figure. At that time, the swarm started streaming toward Jim and Danny. My lips tightened before picking up the police car and throwing it at the figure who was too distracted to notice my attack. The figure was knocked down from the sky and landed hardly on the ground.
The swarm zigzagged across our positions. I covered my face with my arms before the swarm disappeared into the midst. Danny helped me on my feet.
"Nice one. I just hope he didn't get hurt in the process," Jim complimented before looking up to where the figure was floating up in the sky.
"I don't think so. When our puppeteer fell, he just disappeared. I get the feeling that the swarm protects him," Danny thought in theory.
"I have another theory. If the former agents have a lot to do with the attack here, the swarm might've gotten a hold of them," Jim told Danny.
"Do you really think the swarm is controlling the former agents?" I asked.
"It's possible. If the swarm abducted the agents in the Guys in White agency, what will keep those things from attacking the ones possessing them?" Jim asked rhetorically. I felt a hulk of fear at the pit of my gut. That would make the swarm seem... alive.
"If you're right about this, Jim, we've got a huge problem on our hands. We better get back to Fenton Works," Danny told us before we followed him back to his house.
Jack and Maddie had suspicious looks on their faces. Danny seemed more worried about the agency and Jim's and I's safety. He sat on the couch and invited Jim and I to sit next to him. My aunt and uncle kept their expressions.
"How was the investigation?" Maddie asked.
"We found our puppeteer, but the swarm disappeared. We think the swarm might've taken control over the former agents, but we're not sure," Danny explained. "We also encountered a surprise attack."
"I knew it was a trap!" Jack blurted out.
"Maybe, but Jim and Dani had nothing to do with it. Those things were attacking the three of us. Luckily, Dani was able to knock down our guy before those things could destabilize her."
"I'm just surprised those things didn't get you, Dani," Jim said.
"The agency trained me well, comrade," I smirked.
"Danny, your cousin tricked you once, what makes you think she can't do it again?" Maddie asked rhetorically.
"Mom, that was four years ago and Dani was brainwashed by Vlad. I trust Dani, because, even though she's her own person, she has a lot of me in her. I know Dani more than her own boyfriend... no offense," Danny proclaimed.
"Non taken. I agree with that too," Jim said.
"What about this Jim guy?" Jack asked.
"I've known him for two years now. I didn't trust him at first, but I have interest in him now. We're like close brothers and he needs me now. I can't abandon him, because of what his father did," Danny decided.
There was a noise from the lab downstairs. All of us looked toward the basement door before rushing over to where the noise came from. It was the Invasion Alarm System going off. Since the swarm had ecto signatures, they set off the alarm. I knew this was turning out worse. Even Jim had a worried look on his face.
"It must be the swarm. There has to be something really big going on, I just know it," Jim said.
"Then we need to figure out what it is and stop it before the swarm turns Amity Park into a beehive," Danny told Jim before the three of us started on our way out the door.
"I order you to stay away from them!" Jack ordered my cousin. I looked at him with no emotion. I didn't want to go between my cousin and his family, but this was the world we are talking. I couldn't let anybody get hurt. Danny was thinking the same thing.
"I'm not going to follow that order," Danny decided in a hurtful tone. He did not want to go against his parents, but he couldn't let others die either.
Danny and I changed into our ghost forms before taking Jim and fazing out of the house. Danny had to choose to go against his parents' wishes to save the town, maybe the world. Danny was both hurt and upset. Upset, because he had to decide between saving the world or not and hurt, because his parents could not understand his situation. I put my hand on Danny's shoulder to comfort him.
"You did the right thing. Let's go save the town," I smiled before Danny gave one back.
The three of us traveled to the one place I knew help would arrive. It was non other than Axon Labs. I knew Valerie since twelve years old. She was always a great help and the only friend I knew who loved the Guys in White organization. This made things so much easier and she was always willing to help if I needed it.
I knocked on the door before Damon answered it and spotted Danny, Jim, and I. He cocked his eyebrows.
"We're here to see Valerie," I explained before Damon nodded his head and let us inside.
I saw Valerie watching TV before noticing me, and then turning off the TV. She smiled and invited me to sit next to her.
"Valerie, I need your help bad. The Chief has been abducted, there's a swarm of computer chips, that can destroy me, on the loose, and Jack and Maddie don't trust Jim and me," I explained to Valerie.
"That's awful. Why would your aunt and uncle not trust you all of a sudden, especially Jim?" Valerie asked.
"We're Guys in White agents," Jim replied. "They aren't too fond of my father's organization since they tried to exterminate their son."
"I'm sorry. I'll help you guys the best I can to try to destroy those things. Where is your father, by the way?" Valerie asked.
The three of us gave glances. Danny whispered something to Valerie before her eyes bugged out. She started understanding our situation.
"I think you're right Danny. The swarm probably is controlling the organization and they're using the agents to get what they want," Valerie agreed.
"What I don't get is why they're trying to destroy Dani," Jim said.
"Probably, because she's a ghost. In that case, they're going to destroy her cousin too," Valerie replied.
"Over my dead body."
"Do you think there's something you have that could help us find out what these things are trying to do?" I asked.
"Of coarse, hon. We'll go to my father's computer and find out what the motives are," Valerie agreed with her sassy smile.
We all smiled excitedly before walking to the lab.
