Act III: Love at First Fight
As the truck zoomed through stop lights, Danny Phantom and the Lunch Lady were chasing after it. One of the boxes of meat fell out when the truck hit bump spilling meat on the road. The Lunch Lady used her powers to create 4 meat minions.
Lunch Lady: Go my pets. Go and retrieve the meat!
The meat minions obeyed and flew to the top of the truck. The first 2 started pounding on top of the truck trying to open it while the other 2 were focusing on the drivers and engine.
Danny: (Groan) Why do have to be so good?
Danny started to fly closer to the front. to stop the meat minion trying to destroy the engine. Danny easily blasted it off with an ecto ray from his hand. The other one flew inside the truck's window to hide, but the noises made it sound like the thing was causing trouble. The truck started to swerve on the road and Danny started to fear that the drivers would hit a civilian. Danny flew ahead of the truck and saw some people crossing a cross walk. So he flew ahead pushed them onto the sidewalk. Then he saw a little girl next to him and since he was 4 seconds from being flattened, he picked her up and turned them both intangible. The truck passed through them and Danny gave the girl back to her parents. Up ahead he could see that meat minion causing the trouble was thrown out of the truck., but Danny was more focused on the two on the roof who were making progress.
Danny: Two down, 4 more weirdos to go.
Who caught up with the truck and landed on top. The two meat minions saw him and started attacking him. One jumped on Danny and started pulling his raven-black hair and covering his eyes. The other tripped Danny and made him fall on his back. The two held Danny down as their master appeared.
Lunch Lady: Nobody changes the menu. Especialy when meat is the menu! Would you like milk or juice?
Danny then saw ahead that the truck was heading for a tunnel.
Danny: You kniow I think I'll pick juice, because milk goes right through me.
Right as she is about to deliver a powerful blow, he turns intaingible and phases into the back of the truck. The Lunch Lady and her minions then notice the tunnel and are to surprised to react. The Lunch Lady is blown right off the truck while her minions are scattered on her. Danny tries to imagine what the Lunch Lady's face looked like while trying to catch his breathe. He pulled the back door to the truck closed, transformed back to normal and sat down next to a box of meat. The truck was completely dark and eventually the darkness caused Danny to fall asleep. He was awoken to find the truck had stopped. He heard the two doors from the drivers seat being opened and closed. He figured that there were two people at the wheel. One to drive and one to shoot. He turned intangible and phased out of the car. When he got out he was in a forest clearing with no signs of roads or civilization. All there was was trees, nature, and crates and crates of meat.
Danny: So this is where the stolen meat went. Now I wonder who-
Before he could finish his thought, he felt something against his back. A ghost blaster to be exact.
Danny: Alright, whoever you are, you better return the meat or else-
The next thing he felt was a total surprise. He felt the ghost blaster being pulled away from his back and the touch of someone's lips on his cheek. In shock he turns around.
Danny: SAM!
The framer and kisser was his girlfriend Sam and next to her was her grandmother. Slowly, more people who look like hippies come out.
Sam: I thought you would be more happy to see me.
Danny:Wait, you're behind this? You're the reason my Dad is in jail.
Sam: Danny, let me explain. You see when my parents made me work at the barbeque, I was mad. Not only because I'm a ultra recyclo-vegetarian, but because they were doing it because we're dating. So at first it was mess the meat, put hot sauce in them and stuff but the Lunch Lady found me. That's when you saw me at the barbeque. After seing you guys get thrown out. I figured it was time I really did something to my parents. I got some of my other eco-friends to help me hijack the meat trucks and we were going to hold the meat "hostage" until you and your family could come to the barbeque. ersonally, I don't want you to eat meat, but I do want you to have fun and get the treatment you deserve.
Danny: That explains how you got the trucks and why you did it, but why is your grandma here?
Sam: She was the one who convinced me to do this. Plus, she threatened to tell if I didn't let her help.
Sam's Grandma: Meet our demands or no meat at all!
Danny: She is definitely your grandma.
Sam: I never expected your Dad to get blamed.
Danny: Actually that was the Box Ghost's fault. It's a long story but Tucker and I are helping him date the Lunch Lady.
Sam makes a look of disgust.
Danny: Tucker made the same choice. Also, I'm not mad at you, I never will. You were trying to do something nice in your own way, and that's what I like about you.
He notices that by now Sam is blushing.
Tucker: Ah-HA! I knew you were behind this!
Sam: Tucker! How did you find us?
Tucker: Don't you remember I have a huge meat sense. This place was like a magnet.
Danny: Were you followed?
Tucker: Please, what fool do you take me for?
Box Ghost: I AM THE BOX GHOST!
Sam: We take you for a big fool.
Box Ghost: DANNY! I need your help!
Sam: His help? Why do you need his help? He doesn't know how to talk to girls. Do you know how long it took for him to ask me out?
Box Ghost: NO! Now what will I-
The Box Ghost then notices all the missing meat.
Box Ghost: Yes! If I tell my beloved where the meat is, she'll have to love me.
Sam: Or you could be yourself and forget about all this.
Box Ghost: I like my plan better.
He focuses on one of the boxes and causes it to rise high up into the air and then makes it explode like a firework made of meat.
Tucker: What if your plan doesn't work?
The Box Ghost: I didn't think about that.
However, The Lunch Lady appears as if out of no matter. She seems furious, especially at Sam.
Lunch Lady: YOU! YOU"LL PAY FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE!
Danny goes ghost and blasts her into a couple of meat crates.
Danny: Sam, how much meat is here?
Sam: Too much. Everyone in the truck.
Everyone begins to pile into the back of the truck. Sam and her grandmother get in the front.
Box Ghost: Don't leave! I still need help!
Sam: Look just read her poetry or something.
Box Ghost: Okay.
As the Box Ghost flies towards his beloved, the truck revs off with Sam, Danny, and an elderly woman in the driver's seat.
Sam: You think that will buy us enough time.
Danny: Probably.
About half an hour later, things go wrong.
RUMBLE
Sam: Tell me that was Tucker's stomach.
Danny: No.
Danny looks out the window to see a giant, meat monster that's about twice the size of his school.
Danny: Guys, we are in big trouble. Head to the barbeque, I might have a plan. I'm going ghost!
Sam's Grandma: What kind of plan is that?
He goes ghost and flies out onto the top of the truck. Despite the size of the monster, Danny still attempts to fight it. Every attack Danny throws, ecto rays, punches, kicks, even the ghostly wail has little effect on the Lunch Lady. His last kick failed and ended up causing him to be grabbed by the Lunch Lady.
Lunch Lady: You can't defeat me! I am-
Box Ghost: Wait for me my beloved!
Lunch Lady: Get away from me!
She uses her free hand to swat the Box Ghost away.
Danny: Wow, talk about giving someone the cold shoulder. Wait!
Upon realizing, Danny freezes his captor's arm and shatters it. He then proceeds to do the same with her legs. As Danny freezes the monster, Sam and the others get closer and closer to the barbeque. There, an angry mob of people are crowding around Sam's parents who are next to Jack in his stockhold.
Mr. Manson: Now we all know you're angry about the missing meat and the only thing we could find was our daughter's salads.
Mrs. Manson: But we're sure we can all have a good time and blame Jack Fenton.
Dash: Boo.
Dash then picks up a ripe tomato and throws it, hitting Mr. Manson in the leg.
Mr. Baxter: Son! You know better than that. You got to aim higher.
Dash: Got it Pops.
Soon everyone started to grab food and toss it at Sam's parents.
Jack: Ha! Not so good now.
Then they started aiming at Jack as well.
Mrs. Manson: Ugh, I wish we had some meat.
The truck stops right near Sam's parents and Sam rushes out fast.
Sam: (panting) Guys. Ghosts. Meat. Trouble.
Dash: This is no time for charades Manson.
Jack: SHe's trying to say the meat is under attack by ghosts or there are meat ghosts and we're in trouble.
Mr. Manson: Nice try, Fenton. We already of 3 hunters here, I think we're fine.
Danny: AHHHHHHH!
Danny falls from the sky and crashes right next to his father.
Mrs. Manson: Drat, he missed.
Everybod looks where Danny was coming from and is in horror to see the monster that is coming towards them.
Mrs. Manson: (To Guys in White and Valerie): Don't just stand there! Get that thing!
The hunters head straight towards the Lunch Lady and fire everything they have. Like Danny, it has little effect. In fact, the hunters are actually retreating.
Agent M: It's impossible, our weapons can't hurt it.
Jack: (Sarcasticly) Wow, nice hunters. I guess they are doing a better job than me.
Agent O: Well what do you suggest?
Jack: Well technically, that meat is just a shield or armor, so just get rid of the meat and you'll have a clear shot of her.
Valerie: How are we supposed to get a shot at that?
Jack: I have an idea, but you're going to have to let me go.
Mr and Mrs. Manson: NEVER!
They take another look at the monster getting closer.
Mr. Manson: You win.
He frees Jack from the stockholds and Jack brings everyone together.
Jack: Okay, to beat that ghost, I'll need a cell phone, complete access to the Nasty Burger supplies, and a soda.
Mrs. Manson: We'll pay for any missing inventory.
Dash: Here's that soda.
Mr. Baxter: HEY!
Agent O: You can use my cell phone.
Jack: (dialing) Come on, pick up. Maddie? Listen, get to the barbeque and bring the Fenton Ghost Peeler and the ECTO. Just trust me, it's ghost related.
Mrs. Manson: What's the soda for?
Jack: I was just thirsty.
10 minutes later.
Maddie: You sure you know what you're doing.
Jack: Nope.
Maddie lowers a giant weapon that looks like a cannon.
Mr. Manson: What is that?
Jack: ECTO. It stands for Enhancement Cannon Tracking Optimizer. It enhances any ghost weapon 10 times. The only down side is I haven't tested because some people think it's unethical. Now where'e the nasty sauce vat?
Sam's Grandma: Right here.
The truck now has the nasty sauce vat in there.
Jack: Perfect! Now all we need to do is get the ghost close enough, fire a hole in it using the Fenton Ghost Peeler in the ECTO, and then launch the nasty sauce vat in there. When she seals the hole, the meat's temperature wil make the vat unstable and blow up. Destroying her shield and saving the town. That or killing us all.
Everyone has a worried look on their face. As the Lunch Lady get closer and closer, They prepare the ECTO for fire.
Jack: Steady, Steady, FIRE!
They fire two shot: one at the leg and one at the arm
The Lunch Lady falls hard. Whiledown, Sam's grandma backs the tuck into the hole and gets out right before it closes
Sam's Grandma: Best Barbeque Ever!
As the second hole closes the Box Ghost flies into one of them.
Danny: Everybody, get to a safe distance!
Danny grabs Sam before as they all start running. Inside the monster, the Box Ghost finds his way to where the Lunch Lady is.
Box Ghost: Get out of here! It's going to blow!
Lunch Lady: Why don't you take a hint!
Box Ghost: Because in the cafeteria that is my heart, my love for you is the breakfast, lunch, and dinner, 24/7 and I won't let anyone change that menu.
As the vat gets closer, the Lunch Lady makes out a tiny smile. The pressure gauge is off the meter and is about to blow.
Box Ghost: Fear me vat!
He starts to focus all his power on creating box-like shield around him and the Lunch Lady growing more powerful and bigger. From the outside, the explosuion is blinding. When it ended, the monster was no more. The Box Ghost fell to the Earth and the Lunch Lady caught him. Everyone cheered, but only The Lunch Lady and Tucker cried.
Tucker: Raining meat? It's like a dream come true.
Lunch Lady: NOOOOOOO! Don't you dare die on me. I only just found that there is room for an extra serving. Don't go please.
Box Ghost: ... Be... Beware.
She hugged him and they both turned invisible and flew away. Meanwhile, Jack is happily dancing about his success.
Jack: Yes! I saved the town, I saved the town.
Mrs. Manson: You still can't come to the barbeque.
Jack, Maddie, Jazz, and Danielle: ARE YOU KIDDING ME!
Dash: Yeah come on, they saved the town.
Mr. Baxter: And saved the meat.
Agent O and M: and got rotten fruit thrown at him.
Valerie: Let them in.
Mr. Lancer: Let them in.
Everybody: Let them in! Let them in!
Mr. and Mrs Manson: ALRIGHT!
Mr. Manson: You can join the barbeque Fentons.
Jack: YES! Finally, you won't regret it. Plus, I get to try my new g-
Everyone: AHHHHH!
Jack:-rill. One that I bought at a store. Does anyone know how to light one?
Jazz: Danny might, by the way where is he?
Danielle: And where's Sam?
Meanwhile, in the woods a mile back.
Danny: Nice hiding spot, how did you find it?
Sam: I come here to unwind, hide from parents.
Danny: As crazy as this sounds, despite the giant ghosts, love-sick losers, and my Dad nearly going to jail, this is might be the best barbeque I've been too.
Sam: Why? This might be the worst barbeque ever!
Danny: True, but this is special. I got to spend with you.
They both blush and look at each other awkwardly.
Sam's Grandma: Well don't just stand there, kiss her!
Behind them, Sam's grandma is watching in her wheelchair.
Sam: Grandma! You can't just force us to-
Mid-sentence, Danny kisses her on the lips.
Sam's Grandma: My work her is done.
As she leaves they start to make out.
Danny: It's official. We're making this our secret romance spot.
Lunch Lady: You mean our secret romance spot.
Danny turns around to see the Box Ghost with his head in the Lunch Lady's lap.
Box Ghost: OW! Can't we have a secret spot to? OUCH!
Lunch Lady: Sorry Boxie-Boo.
Box Ghost: It's okay, soon everyone will fear our love and wrath!
Danny: So much for our secret hide-out.
Sam: True but that doesn'tmake it less romantic.
Before they can resume making out, the Box Ghost and Lunch Lady started before them.
Sam: Okay, that might make this less romantic.
