"Danny, what have you done to my mother?"Sam growled angrily.

Danny raised his arms defensively. "I never did anything to your mom. "

Pamela watched as the two started bickering once again. Both obviously thought that she was crazy. Heck if she heard herself she would think she was crazy too. Now wasn't the time for bickering though. They needed to come up with a plan.

"I'm sorry Sam, but as I said before, not everything ghostly is MY fault."

"I know! But maybe a ghost that you angered wanted me to suffer instead of you. That ghost turned me into a mermaid and my mom crazy." Sam sounded like she was panicking.

"This isn't because of ghosts!" Pam interjected. "It was caused by an idiot fairy."

"Sure... and I'm a supernatural creature." Sam replied sarcastically.

"Technically, you are Sam." Phantom facepalmed.

"Shut up Danny."

"Okay, so let's say fairies did do this." Phantom ignored his friend. "Where is it? Why is the magic in effect only now?"

"I don't know." Mrs. Manson answered. "But I know the names of the fairies."

"That's helpful." Phantom rubbed the bridge of his nose, reminding Pamela of one Maddie Fenton. Speaking of Maddie Fenton...

"Sam where are your friends?" Pamela asked strangely calm. They better not have abandoned her. If they did, well there is a reason why there is a saying 'hell hath no fury like a woman scorned'.

"I was alone today; both Danny and Tucker are at a nerd convention. They have no idea what happened to me. Can we focus on how to change me back before berating my friends?" Sam replied, unimpressed.

"Yeah, Sam's already done that." Phantom murmured barely inaudible. Sam elbowed him hard, but doing so caused her to accidentally dunk herself. Both Phantom and Pamela managed to avoid getting soaked. The rest of the room wasn't so lucky.

Pamela decided not to address the closeness of the two. She didn't want to risk angering the seemingly calm ghost. She hadn't forgotten how violent the ghosts in Amity Park were. She was rather greatful that Phantom wasn't in one of his moods.

Instead she decided to address the elephant, well in this case fish, in the room. "She can't stay in here. She'll be seen by the servants then they will take her to the GiW"

Phantom thought for a moment, then suggested. "What about Lake Eerie?"

"No daughter of mine is going to-"

"Look Mom. The tub is too small. I can't be placed in a pool, because someone will see me. Lake Eerie is the closest place where I can hide." Sam interrupted annoyed.

"But Sammy, Lake Eerie is full of dangerous things. Did you see the size of the beast Jack Fenton brought home when he went fishing?" Pam argued. The lake was dangerous, and no place for any child to be. How Jack Fenton though it was okay for his son to go fishing there, mystified her.

"Get someone to watch her. They can contact us if Sam needs help." Phantom said calmly.

"Us?" No way did she want to travel with Phantom! What if he went into one of his moods?

"There is no way I'm looking for two fairies by myself." Phantom said obviously still in disbelief that fairies were real, "You know what they look like. I don't. You made the wish, I didn't. You and me both get to look crazy. Now is there anyone you trust to watch over her?"

"You're making it sound like I need a babysitter. I don't need a babysitter! I am a big girl, I can take care of myself!" Sam shouted.

"I am not letting you be alone in Lake Eerie!" Both Phantom and Pamela shouted at the same time. Both blinked and looked at each other.

"I'll go call Jeremy." Pamela walked out as dignified as she could and shut the door behind her.

"That was weird." Danny muttered embarrassed. "Much weirder then when it happened with my parents."

"Agreed. So how are you going to find these fairies? "Sam asked trying to sound casual about her mother's explanation.

Danny walked over and sat down beside the bathtub. "Forgot it was wet here." He grimaced.

"Just like the bush." Sam grinned. "But seriously, I don't want to be a mermaid forever. Your plan isn't 'Go around and ask every ghost where the fairies are'. So what is your plan?"

Danny sat in silence, looking at Sam's black bathroom walls.

"That's your PLAN?"

"Do you have a better one? I have never SEEN a fairy, let alone talked to one. I have no idea what to do! I don't want you to be a mermaid forever either." Danny said the last part a bit more quietly.

"At least Tucker isn't here." Sam said trying to lift the mood again.

Danny smiled a little. "Yeah we'd never hear the end of it."

The two sat in silence, trying to briefly enjoy the moment. Neither wanted to focus on the crisis they had to deal with, because honestly it frightened both of them. Were there other paranormal creatures that might actually exist? If fairies could change Sam into a mermaid what else could they do?

"Sam." Danny began, "I'll make sure your back to normal as soon-"

Unfortunately he was interrupted by a frantic Mr. Manson opening the bathroom. "Sammikins, tell me it's not true! Please tell me you aren't a MERMAID!"

"It's not true. I'm not a mermaid." Sam sighed.

"I don't think your dad appreciated that answer." Phantom said, looking at Jeremy, as the patriarch reddened then turned pale.

"So... she wasn't lying." Jeremy said then fainted.

"That went well." Phantom deadpanned. "He is so going to be upset when he wakes up to see himself all soaked."

A/N Yay! Another update! Expect another one soon. Also Chloe; Yay or Nay?
